PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS SUBJECT TO COMPLETION DATED SEPTEMBER ____, 2019

 

The information in this prospectus is not complete and may be changed. These securities may not be sold until the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is effective. This preliminary prospectus is not an offer to sell these securities and is not soliciting an offer to buy these securities in any state where the offer or sale is not permitted.

 

Ozop Surgical Corp.

13,300,000 Common Shares

 

The selling stockholder identified in this prospectus may offer an indeterminate number of shares of the Company’s common stock, which will consist of up to 13,300,000 shares of common stock to be sold by the selling stockholder, GHS Investments, LLC (“GHS”), pursuant to an Equity Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) dated July 5, 2019. If issued presently, the 13,300,000 shares of common stock registered for resale by GHS would represent approximately 14% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, based on the Company’s issued and outstanding 57,337,505 shares of common stock as of September 18, 2019.

 

The selling stockholder may sell all or a portion of the shares being offered pursuant to this prospectus at fixed prices and prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at varying prices, or at negotiated prices.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock by GHS. However, we will receive proceeds from our sale of shares to GHS pursuant to the Financing Agreement. We will sell shares of our common stock to GHS at a price equal to 85% of the lowest closing price of our common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period ending on the date on which we deliver a put notice to GHS (the “Market Price”), and we will be obligated to simultaneously deliver an additional number of shares equal to an aggregate of 5% of the put notice amount based on the Market Price. For example, if we delivered a put notice to GHS for $10,000, and the Market Price were $0.01/share, we would be obligated to issue GHS $10,500 of our common stock based 85% of the Market Price, or approximately 1,235,294 shares.

 

Upon execution of the Financing Agreement, we issued GHS a $30,000 promissory note as a commitment fee for entering into the Financing Agreement with the Company.

 

GHS is an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Link LLC (“OTC Link”) quotation system, operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., and trades on the OTCQB market under the symbol “OZSC”. As of September 18, 2019, the last reported sale price for our common stock was approximately $0.014 per share.

 

Prior to this offering, there has been a very limited market for our securities. While our common stock is quoted on the OTC Link, there has been negligible trading volume. There is no guarantee that an active trading market for our common stock will develop.

 

This offering is highly speculative and these securities involve a high degree of risk and should be considered only by persons who can afford the loss of their entire investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 5. Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

SUMMARY INFORMATION

 

You should carefully read all information in the prospectus, including the financial statements and their explanatory notes under the Financial Statements section of this prospectus prior to making an investment decision.

 

Overview 

 

Ozop Surgical Corp. (the” Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) was originally incorporated as Newmarkt Corp. on July 17, 2015, under the laws of the State of Nevada, for the purpose of the renting different kind of Segways and bicycles, dual wheels self-balancing electric scooters and related safety equipment. Following the acquisition of OZOP Surgical, Inc. as discussed below, we have been engaged in the business of inventing, designing, developing, manufacturing and distributing innovative endoscopic instruments, surgical implants, instrumentation, devices and related technologies, focused on spine, neurological and pain management procedures and specialties.

 

Reverse Merger

 

On April 13, 2018, we entered into and completed a share exchange agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement") with OZOP Surgical, Inc. (“OZOP”), the shareholders of OZOP (the “OZOP Shareholders”) and Denis Razvodovskij, the then holder of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the OZOP Shareholders transferred and exchanged 100% of the capital stock of OZOP in exchange for an aggregate of 25,000,000 newly issued shares of our common stock (the “Share Exchange”). After giving effect to the redemption of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Redemption Agreement discussed below and the issuance of 25,000,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we had 25,797,500 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, with the OZOP Shareholders, as a group, owning 96.9% of such shares. Currently, our executive officers and directors, as a group, own 6,374,223 of our shares representing 21.81 % of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The merger was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby OZOP was considered the accounting acquirer and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger” or a “reverse acquisition,” the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger were and will be replaced with the historical financial statements of OZOP prior to the reverse merger, in all future filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

In connection with the acquisition of OZOP, we purchased and redeemed 2,000,000 shares of our common stock from Mr. Razvodovskij for a total purchase price of $350,000 pursuant to a Share Redemption Agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, effective April 13, 2018, Mr. Razvodovskij resigned as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and sole director, and Michael Chermak, Salman J. Chaudhry (resigned March 4, 2019) and Eric Siu (resigned March 5, 2019) were named as directors of the Company.

 

Corporate Matters

 

On May 8, 2018, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to change our name from Newmarkt Corp. to Ozop Surgical Corp. in order to reflect more accurately the name of our core service offering and operations. The Amendment also increased our authorized shares of capital stock to 300,000,000, consisting of 290,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 (the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock shall be issuable in such series, and with such designations, rights and preferences as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time.

 

  1  

 

On March 28, 2019, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to designate 1,000,000 shares as Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is not convertible into common stock, nor does the Series B Preferred Stock have any right to dividends and any liquidation preference. The Series B Preferred Stock entitles its holder to a number of votes per share equal to 50 votes. On or about April 1, 2019, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock to the Company’s CEO in consideration of $25,000 of accrued expenses, the Company’s failure to timely pay current and past due management fees, and the willingness to accrue unpaid management fees.

 

On July 25, 2019, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to increase its authorized shares of capital stock to 1,000,000,000, consisting of 990,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001. 

 

OZOP

 

OZOP was originally incorporated in Switzerland on November 28, 1998 under the name Perma Consultants Holding AG (“Perma”). On July 19, 2016, Mr. Eric Siu (“Siu”), one of our directors purchased 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Perma and changed the name from Perma to Ozop Surgical AG (“Ozop AG”). On February 1, 2018, Ozop AG was re-domiciled as a Delaware corporation and changed its name to Ozop Surgical, Inc. On July 28, 2016, Ozop formed as the sole member, Ozop Surgical, LLC (“Ozop LLC”), a Wyoming limited liability company. On October 28, 2016, Ozop acquired 100% of Ozop Surgical Limited (“Ozop HK”), from Siu, the sole shareholder of Ozop HK. Ozop HK, is a private limited company incorporated in Hong Kong.

 

On February 16, 2018, OZOP acquired the 100% membership interest (the “Membership Interest”) in Spinus, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Spinus), from RWO Medical Consulting LLC (“RWO”), a Texas limited liability company (the “Acquisition”). OZOP purchased the Membership Interest from RWO in exchange for; (i) 5,000,000 shares OZOP’s common stock and ii) the assumption of all liabilities of Spinus, including an obligation of $250,000 pursuant to a license agreement by and between Spinus and a third party (the “Assumed Debt”). The Assumed Debt is secured by Spinus’s assets and is due the earlier of (i) February 16, 2019 or (ii) 15 days subsequent to the Company completing a minimum of a $3,000,000 equity raise. OZOP acquired Spinus to gain control of a license rights agreement for exclusive rights to intellectual property related to minimally invasive spine surgery techniques. The Assumed Debt of $250,000 was paid in November 2018.

 

The following table summarizes the final valuation of the consideration issued and the purchase price allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition:

    Purchase Price
Allocation
 Fair value of consideration issued   $ 250,000  
 Liabilities assumed     278,779  
Total purchase consideration   $ 528,779  
 Assets acquired   $ 289,628  
Tradename     44,200  
Goodwill     194,951  
    $ 528,779  
         

The total purchase price of $528,779 has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values as of the completion of the Acquisition. These allocations reflect various estimates that are currently available. The final fair value of Spinus’s identifiable intangible assets were determined primarily using the income approach which requires an estimate or forecast of all the expected future cash flows, either through the use of the relief-from-royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method. The Company will record amortization expense assuming a straight-line basis over the expected life of the finite lived intangible assets, which approximates expected future cash flows.

 

Goodwill represents the amount by which the estimated consideration transferred exceeds the historical costs of the assets the Company acquired and the liabilities the Company assumed. The Company will not amortize the goodwill, but will instead test the goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events or circumstances have occurred that may indicate a possible impairment.

RISK FACTORS

 

This investment has a high degree of risk. Before you invest you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this prospectus. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed and the value of our stock could go down. This means you could lose all or a part of your investment.

 

Special Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

Some of the statements in this prospectus are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements involve certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, the factors set forth herein under “Risk Factors.” The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update and revise any forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements in this document to reflect any future or developments.

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our current business and future prospects and may increase the risk associated with your investment.

 

We have a limited operating history in our surgical device and technology business and to date, we have generated a small amount of sales and revenues in this line of business. Consequently, these aspects of our operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of an early stage business enterprise. We have encountered and will continue to encounter risks and difficulties frequently experienced by rapidly growing companies in constantly evolving industries, including the risks described in our annual report on Form 10-K filed on April 16, 2019, for the year ended December 31, 2018. If we do not address these risks successfully, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects will be adversely affected, and the market price of our common stock could decline. Further, we have limited historic financial data, and we operate in a rapidly evolving market. As such, any predictions about our future revenue and expenses may not be as accurate as they would be if we had a longer operating history or operated in a more predictable market.

 

We have substantial doubt related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our historical operating results indicate substantial doubt exists related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as of June 30, 2019, the Company had a working capital deficit of $3,665,800. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has cash of $4,738 and net loss and net cash used in operating activities of $2,821,397 and $537,780, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and an accumulated deficit totaling $6,890,144. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Additionally, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph regarding “going concern” uncertainty in their report on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our generating cash flow sufficient to fund operations. Our business strategy may not be successful in addressing these issues. If we cannot continue as a going concern, our stockholders may lose their entire investment in us.

 

If we do not obtain additional financing, our business will fail.


We anticipate that additional funding will be needed for debt service, general administrative expenses and marketing costs. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to raise the required cash and because of this our business may fail. We do not currently generate sufficient revenue from operations to pay our debt service requirements or any of our monthly expenses. We do not currently have any arrangements for financing. Obtaining additional funding will be subject to a number of factors, including general market conditions, investor acceptance of our business plan and initial results from our business operations. These factors may impact the timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing available to us.

 

Our business may not generate sufficient cash flows from operations or future borrowings may not be available to us in amounts sufficient to enable us to repay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs, including working capital needs and expansion costs.

 

We cannot guarantee that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue or obtain enough capital to service our debt, fund our planned working capital needs and execute on our business expansion strategy. We may be more vulnerable to adverse economic conditions than less leveraged competitors and thus less able to withstand competitive pressures. Any of these events could reduce our ability to generate cash available for investment or debt repayment or to make improvements or respond to events that would enhance profitability. If we are unable to service or repay our debt when it becomes due, our lenders could seek to accelerate payment of all unpaid principal and foreclose on our assets, and we may have to take actions such as selling assets, seeking additional equity investments or reducing or delaying capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions, investments and alliances. Additionally, we may not be able to take these types of actions, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. The occurrence of any of these events would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our commercial success depends upon attaining market acceptance of our products by physicians, patients and healthcare payers.

 

The medical device industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid technological change. Our success depends, in part, upon physicians continuing to perform a significant number of procedures and our ability to achieve and maintain a competitive position in the development of technologies and products in the orthopedic field. If physicians, patients, or other healthcare providers opt to use our competitors' products, or healthcare payers do not accept our products, our commercial opportunity will be reduced and our potential revenues will suffer.

 

The FDA regulates the manufacturers and suppliers of the products that we sell, market, manufacture, and distribute, and regulatory compliance is costly and could contribute to delays in the availability of our products.

 

Under FDA regulations, we are subject to the same FDA regulation as the manufacturers and suppliers we purchase from. These regulations govern (i) the introduction of new medical devices; (ii) the observance of certain standards with respect to the design, manufacturing, testing, labeling, promotion, and sales of the devices; (iii) the maintenance of certain records; (iv) the ability to track devices; (v) the reporting of potential product defects; (vi) the importing and exporting of devices; and (vii) various other matters. Furthermore, manufacturers that create the products we market face an increasing amount of scrutiny and compliance costs as more states implement regulations governing medical devices. In addition, we are subject to ongoing compliance concerning 510(k) approvals, as well as potential onsite inspections by the FDA. Being found in violation and failing to correct an FDA compliance issue, could potentially result in product recall, product seizure, or the de-listing of our products with 510(k) Approval. These types of FDA regulations could affect many of the products we market, impacting our revenues and profitability, results of operations, and working capital.

 

The commercial launch and sale of certain of our products may require FDA approval

 

We may be required to receive FDA approval for certain of our products before we may begin their commercial launch and sale of such products to the public. FDA approval has not yet been received for these products, and failure to receive such approval would have a material adverse effect on our business and revenues.

 

Our industry is subject to rapid technological changes.

 

The market for the products we plan to offer is characterized by innovative technology, evolving industry standards and new product introductions and enhancements that may render existing products obsolete. As a result, the market position we expect to enter into could erode rapidly due to unforeseen changes in the features of competing products. Our future success will depend in part upon our ability to enhance the products we are currently developing and to develop and introduce new products enhancements to meet changing client requirements. The process of developing products such as those we are currently developing is extremely complex and is expected to become increasingly complex and expensive in the future. There can be no assurance that we will successfully complete the development of new products in a timely fashion or that our current or future products will satisfy the needs of our target market.

 

We currently have only a small management team and no other staff, which could limit our ability to effectively seize market opportunities and grow our business.

 

Our operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in a growing business enterprise, including the likelihood of operating losses. As a smaller company with a limited operating history, our success will depend, among other factors, upon how we will manage the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the growth of a new business, products and channels of distribution, and current and future development. In addition, as a company with a limited operating history we have only a small management team and no staff to grow our business and manage the risks inherent in a growing business enterprise. These factors could limit our ability to effectively seize market opportunities and grow our business.

 

  5  

 

We operate in and plan to expand into extremely competitive environments, which will make it difficult for us to achieve market recognition and revenues.

 

We operate in an extremely competitive environment and the markets for our products are characterized by rapidly changing technologies, frequent new product introductions, short product life cycles and evolving industry standards. Our success depends, in substantial part, on the timely and successful introduction of our new products and services and thereafter upgrades of our products and services to comply with emerging industry standards and to address competing technological and product developments by our competitors. The research and development of new, technologically advanced products is a complex and uncertain process requiring high levels of innovation and investment, as well as the accurate anticipation of technology, market trends and customer needs. We may focus our resources on technologies that do not become widely accepted, are not timely released or are not commercially viable. In addition, our products may contain defects or errors that are detected only after deployment. If our products are not competitive or do not work properly, our business could suffer and our financial performance could be negatively impacted. You have no assurance that our new products and services, which we intend to be a significant part or our business, will be accepted in the marketplace. If our products and services do not achieve market acceptance, our revenues will be significantly below the level we anticipate. 

 

Our growth will depend on our ability to develop our brand and any failure to do so could limit our business prospects, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

 

We believe that establishing a strong brand will be critical to achieving widespread acceptance and adoption of our products and services. Promoting and positioning our brand will depend largely on the success of our marketing efforts, distribution channels and ability to provide high quality service. Establishing a significant brand presence for an orthopedic company often requires substantial marketing investment, and many companies have failed to generate the necessary adoption rates even after such a process. Brand promotion activities may not yield increased revenues, and even if they do, any increased revenues may not offset the expenses we incur in building our brand. If we are not successful in building our brand, it could limit our business prospects, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

 

If we fail to implement our expansion plans, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

 

An important part of our strategy is to grow our business by acquiring additional distributors of our products. In addition, the operation of our business will require a significant cash investment to finance purchases of products we intend to sell. We will need additional financing to implement our expansion strategy to acquire additional medical device distributors and finance their operations.  We may not have access to the funding required for these plans on acceptable terms. Our expansion plans may also suffer significant delays as a result of a variety of factors, such as legal and regulatory requirements, either of which could prevent us from completing our plans as currently expected. Our expansion plans may also result in other unanticipated adverse consequences, such as the diversion of management’s attention from our existing operations. In addition, even if we can implement our strategy of expansion in new markets, increased sales may not materialize to the extent we expect, or at all, resulting in unrecoverable expenses and investments. Any failure to successfully implement our business strategy, including for any of the above reasons, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. We may, in addition, decide to alter or discontinue certain aspects of our business strategy at any time.

 

We have significant concentration in and dependence on a small number of customers.

 

In 2018, two (2) customers represented one hundred percent (100%) of our consolidated net revenues. If we lose either customer relationship, without replacing them, it could adversely impact our business, future operating results, and financial condition.

 

To grow revenues and profitability from certain products, we must expand our relationships with hospital systems, third-party distributors and independent sales representatives, whom we do not control.

 

We plan to derive significant revenues through our relationships with hospital systems, distributors and independent sales representatives. If such a relationship terminated or otherwise negatively impacted for any reason, it could materially and adversely affect our ability to generate revenues and profits. Because the independent distributor often controls the customer relationships within its territory, there is a risk that if our relationship with the distributor ends, we could lose our relationship with our ultimate customer.

 

  6  

 

Our success partially depends on our ability to retain and motivate our distributors, independent sales agencies, and their representatives to sell our products in certain territories. However, such parties may not be successful in implementing our strategies and marketing plans. Some of our distributors and independent sales agencies do not sell our products exclusively and may offer competing products from other companies. Our distributors and independent sales agencies may terminate their contracts with us, may devote insufficient sales efforts to our products, or may focus their sales efforts on other products that produce greater commissions for them, which could adversely affect our operations and operating results. We also may not be able to find additional distributors and independent sales representatives who will agree to market or distribute our products on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If we are unable to establish new distribution and independent sales representative relationships or renew current distribution and sales agency agreements on commercially acceptable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

 

Our growth and profitability will depend in large part upon the effectiveness of our marketing strategies and investments.

Our future growth and profitability will partially depend on our marketing performance and appropriate cost structure, including our ability to:

  create greater awareness of the products we sell and the quality control and customer service of our Company;

 

 

identify and utilize the most effective sales representatives who are experienced with understanding the advantages

of our products and who can effectively communicate that to our customers; and

 

  effectively scale marketing and administrative expenditures with revenue value and profitability.

Ineffective sales representatives, promotional efforts, and management of working capital could adversely affect our future results of operations and financial condition.

 

Product quality problems, or defects in our products could harm our reputation and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

 

We sell highly complex products that incorporate advanced technologies. Despite testing prior to their sale, our products may contain undetected defects or fail to meet specifications. Product defects or failure to meet specifications could affect the performance of our products. Allegations of unsatisfactory performance could cause us to lose revenue or market share, increase our service costs, cause us to incur substantial costs in redesigning the products, cause us to lose significant customers, subject us to liability for damages and divert our resources from other tasks, any one of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

 

In the event of discovery of defects in our products, we may become subject to high costs of remediation. We may also be required to provide full replacements or refunds for such defective products. We cannot assure you that such remediation would not have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

 

Dependence on third-party manufacturers to build our products may result in manufacturing delays and pricing fluctuations that could prevent us from shipping customer orders on time, if at all, or on a cost-effective basis, which may result in the loss of sales and end customers.

 

We anticipate we will heavily depend on third-party contract manufacturers for our product lines. Our reliance on these third-party contract manufacturers reduces our control over the manufacturing process, quality assurance, product costs and product supply and timing, which exposes us to risk. Any manufacturing disruption by these third-party manufacturers could severely impair our ability to fulfill orders on time, if at all, or on a cost-effective basis.

 

Our plans to rely on contract manufacturers also yields the potential for their infringement of third- party intellectual property rights in the manufacturing of our products or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights in the manufacturing of other customers’ products. If we are unable to manage our relationships with our future third-party contract manufacturers effectively, or if these third-party manufacturers suffer delays or disruptions for any reason, experience increased manufacturing lead times, capacity constraints or quality control problems in their manufacturing operations or fail to meet our future requirements for timely delivery, our ability to ship products to our end customers would be severely impaired, and our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects would be seriously harmed.

We may in the future be sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights.

 

The medical device industry is characterized by the existence of a large number of patents, trademarks and copyrights and by frequent litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. We may receive in the future communications from third parties claiming that we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others. We may in the future be, sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights. Our products may not be able to withstand any third-party claims against their use. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain. Any intellectual property claims, whether with or without merit, could be time-consuming and expensive to resolve, could divert management attention from executing our business plan and could require us to change our products, change our business practices and/or pay monetary damages or enter into short- or long-term royalty or licensing agreements which may not be available in the future at the same terms or at all. In addition, the company anticipates that future distribution agreements may require us to indemnify our customers for third-party intellectual property infringement claims, which would increase the cost to us of an adverse ruling on such a claim. Any adverse determination related to intellectual property claims or litigation could prevent us from offering our service to others, or could otherwise adversely affect our operating results or cash flows or both in a particular quarter.

 

We are highly dependent on our officers and directors, and the loss of any of them could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Further, we may not be able to attract qualified directors or officers to replace them or other key management personnel necessary to grow our business.

 

We are highly reliant on the services of our Director and Chief Executive Officer, Michael Chermak and our Chief Operating Officer and Director Thomas McLeer and our Chief Financial Officer Barry Hollander. If one of the foregoing left, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Furthermore, we must hire experienced managers to continue to grow our business. As a company with limited operating history, we may have difficulty attracting and retaining new individuals. If we are not successful in attracting management, it could have a material adverse effect on our ability to grow our business, which would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

 

Supporting a growing customer base could strain our personnel and corporate infrastructure, and if we are unable to scale our operations and increase productivity, we may not be able to successfully implement our business plan.

 

Our current management is comprised of our Directors, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. Our success will depend, in part, upon the ability of our management to manage our proposed business effectively. To do so, we will need to hire, train and manage new employees as needed. To manage the expected growth of our operations and personnel, we will need to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures. If we fail to successfully scale our operations and increase productivity, we will be unable to execute our business plan.

 

If we do not effectively manage changes in our business, these changes could place a significant strain on our management and operations.

 

To manage our growth successfully, we must continue to improve and expand our systems and infrastructure in a timely and efficient manner. Our controls, systems, procedures and resources may not be adequate to support a changing and growing company. If our management fails to respond effectively to changes and growth in our business, including acquisitions, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.

 

Our business model is subject to change

 

We may elect to make hiring, marketing, pricing, and service decisions that could increase our expenses, affect our revenues and impact our overall financial results. Moreover, because our expense levels in any given quarter are based, in part, on management’s expectations regarding future revenues, if revenues are below expectations, the effect on our operating results may be magnified by our inability to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for a shortfall in revenues. The extent to which expenses are not subsequently followed by increased revenues would harm our operating results and could seriously impair our business.

Healthcare policy changes, including legislation to reform the U.S. healthcare system, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Political, economic and regulatory influences are subjecting the healthcare industry to potential fundamental changes that could substantially affect our results of operations. In response to perceived increases in healthcare costs in recent years, there have been and continue to be proposals and enactments by members of U.S. Congress, state governments, regulators and third-party payers to control these costs and, more generally, to reform the U.S. healthcare system. These changes are causing the marketplace to put increased emphasis on the delivery of more cost-effective treatments. The adoption of some or all of these enactments and proposals could have a material adverse effect on us. We cannot predict the final form these might take or their effects on our business.

 

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and Healthcare and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010 were enacted into law in the U.S. in March 2010. As a U.S. headquartered company with sales in the U.S., this healthcare reform legislation will materially impact us. Certain provisions of the legislation will not be effective for a number of years, there are many programs and requirements for which the details have not yet been fully established or consequences not fully understood, and it is unclear what the full impact of the legislation will be. The legislation imposes on medical device manufacturers such as us a 2.3 percent excise tax on U.S. sales of Class I, II and III medical devices beginning in 2013. Both downward pressure on reimbursement and the excise tax could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and the results of operations. Other provisions of this legislation, including Medicare provisions aimed at improving quality and decreasing costs, comparative effectiveness research, an independent payment advisory board, and pilot programs to evaluate alternative payment methodologies, could meaningfully change the way healthcare is developed and delivered, and may adversely affect our business and results of operations. Further, we cannot predict what healthcare programs and regulations ultimately will be implemented at the federal or state level, or the effect of any future legislation or regulation in the U.S. or internationally. However, any changes that lower reimbursements for our products or reduce medical procedure volumes could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

 

The application of the privacy provisions of HIPAA is unclear, and we will become subject to other laws and regulations regarding the privacy and security of medical information.

 

HIPAA, among other things, protects the privacy and security of individually identifiable health information by limiting its use and disclosure. HIPAA directly regulates "covered entities" (insurers, clearinghouses, and most healthcare providers) and indirectly regulates "business associates" with respect to the privacy of patients' medical information. All entities that receive and process protected health information are required to adopt certain procedures to safeguard the security of that information. It is unclear whether we would be deemed to be a covered entity or a business associate under the HIPAA regulations. In either case, we will be required to physically safeguard the integrity and security of the patient information that we, or our physician customers receive, store, create or transmit. If we fail to safeguard patient information, then we or our physician customers may be subject to civil monetary penalties, and this could adversely affect our ability to market our products. We also may be liable under state laws governing the privacy of health information.

 

We conduct business in a heavily regulated industry, and changes in regulations and violations of regulations may result in increased costs or sanctions.

 

Our business is subject to extensive federal, state, and, in some cases, local regulation. As the healthcare industry continues to evolve, we anticipate increased regulation. Compliance with these regulatory requirements, as interpreted and amended from time to time, can increase operating costs or reduce revenue and thereby adversely affect the financial viability of our business. Because these laws are amended from time to time and are subject to interpretation, we cannot predict when and to what extent liability may arise. Non-compliance with these laws and regulations could cause us to become the subject of a variety of enforcement or private actions, subject us or our management personnel to fines or various forms of civil or criminal prosecution, and result in negative publicity potentially damaging our reputation, and our relationships with members and consumers in general.

A global economic downturn could result in unfavorable economic conditions and may have an adverse impact on our business results or financial condition.

 

A global economic downturn could result in unfavorable economic conditions in many markets in which we plan to sell our products. Our business or financial results may be adversely impacted by these unfavorable economic conditions, including reduced demand for our products resulting from a slow-down in the general economy or a shift in consumer preferences for economic reasons to private label products or to less profitable channels. In addition, we cannot predict how current or worsening economic conditions will affect our critical customers, suppliers and distributors and any negative impact on our critical customers, suppliers or distributors may also have an adverse impact on our business results or financial condition.

 

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 

Market volatility may affect our stock price, and the value of an investment in our common stock may be subject to sudden decreases.

 

The trading price for our common stock has been, and we expect it to continue to be, volatile. The price at which our common stock trades depends on a number of factors, including the following, many of which are beyond our control:

 

the results of operating and financial performance and prospects of other companies in our industry;

 

strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;

 

announcements of innovations, increased service capabilities, new or terminated customers or new, amended or terminated contracts by our competitors;

 

the public’s reaction to our press releases, media coverage and other public announcements, and filings with the SEC;

 

market conditions for providers of services to telecommunications, utilities and managed cloud services customers;

 

lack of securities analyst coverage or speculation in the press or investment community about us or opportunities in the markets in which we compete;

 

changes in government policies in the United States and, as our international business increases, in other foreign countries;

 

dilution caused by the conversion into common stock of convertible debt securities;

 

market and industry perception of our success, or lack thereof, in pursuing our growth strategy;

 

changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;

 

any lawsuit involving us, our services or our products;

 

arrival and departure of key personnel;

 

sales of common stock by us, our investors or members of our management team; and

 

changes in general market, economic and political conditions in the United States and global economies or financial markets, including those resulting from natural or man-made disasters.

 

  10  

 

Any of these factors, as well as broader market and industry factors, may result in large and sudden changes in the trading volume of our common stock and could seriously harm the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. This may prevent stockholders from being able to sell their shares at or above the price they paid for shares of our common stock, if at all. In addition, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, stockholders often institute securities class action litigation against that company. Our involvement in any class action suit or other legal proceeding, including the existing lawsuits filed against us and described elsewhere in this report, could divert our senior management’s attention and could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

 

We have convertible notes outstanding that could affect our price.

 

Due to the convertible notes we have outstanding as of June 30, 2019, in the aggregate amount of $1,713,507, we have a substantial number of shares that are subject to issuance pursuant to conversions of this debt at conversion discounts up to 45%  of the lowest price quoted on the OTC Markets for our common stock during certain time periods prior to the conversion date. The issuance of common stock pursuant to our convertible notes at conversion less than market prices may have the effect of limiting an increase in market price of our common stock until all of these shares underlying the convertible debt have been issued.

 

Michael Chermak, our Chief Executive Officer and member of our Board of Directors, holds 1,000,000 Series B Preferred Shares which gives him voting control of the Company and therefore effective control of the Company.

 

As the holder of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, Michael Chermak, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, has 50 votes per each share of the 1,000,000 share of Series B Preferred that he owns, constituting 50,000,000 votes on any matter submitted to the holders of the common stock of the Company, effectively giving Mr. Chermak voting control of the Company, as there are only 57,337,505 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding as of September 18, 2019. In addition to the voting power held by Mr. Chermak via his Series B Preferred Stock, he is also the holder of 5,359,223 shares of the Company’s common stock representing approximately 9.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as of September 18, 2019. Therefore, Mr. Chermak’s total voting percentage, including votes from both his common and preferred stock, is approximately 51.6% as of September 18, 2019. Mr. Chermak therefore effectively controls the Company, and our other shareholders effectively have no control over our business and operations, and any investors in our Company should be aware of this risk.

 

Because our officers and board of directors will make all management decisions, you should only purchase our securities if you are comfortable entrusting our directors to make all decisions.

 

Our board of directors will have the sole right to make all decisions with respect to our management. Investors will not have an opportunity to evaluate the specific projects that will be financed with future operating income. You should not purchase our securities unless you are willing to entrust all aspects of our management to our officers and directors.

 

Our issuance of additional common stock in exchange for services or to repay debt would dilute your proportionate ownership and voting rights and could have a negative impact on the market price of our common stock.

 

We may generally issue shares of common stock upon conversion of our convertible debt, to pay for debt or services, without further approval by our stockholders based upon such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant at that time. It is possible that we will issue additional shares of common stock under circumstances we may deem appropriate at the time. Any such new issuances may cause a decrease in the quoted price of our common stock.

 

Our common stock is thinly traded, and there is no guarantee of the prices at which the shares will trade.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Link LLC (“OTC Link”) alternative trading system, operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., and trades on the OTCQB market under the symbol “OZSC”. Not being listed for trading on an established securities exchange has an adverse effect on the liquidity of our common stock, not only in terms of the number of shares that can be bought and sold at a given price, but also through delays in the timing of transactions and reduction in security analysts’ and the media’s coverage of the Company. This may result in lower prices for your common stock than might otherwise be obtained and could also result in a larger spread between the bid and asked prices for our common stock. Historically, our common stock has been thinly traded, and there is no guarantee of the prices at which the shares will trade, or of the ability of stockholders to sell their shares without having an adverse effect on market prices.

  11  

 

 

Our common stock may be considered a “penny stock,” and thereby be subject to additional sale and trading regulations that may make it more difficult to sell.

 

Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock.” It does not qualify for one of the exemptions from the definition of “penny stock” under Section 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. Our common stock is a “penny stock” because it meets one or more of the following conditions (i) the stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) it is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange or (iii) it is not quoted on the NASDAQ Global Market, or has a price less than $5.00 per share. The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is that securities broker-dealers participating in sales of our common stock are subject to the “penny stock” regulations set forth in Rules 15-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act. For example, Rule 15g-2 requires broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document at least two business days before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor's account. Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult and time consuming for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.

 

FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a shareholder’s ability to buy and sell our common shares.

 

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common shares, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

 

Rule 144 sales in the future may have a depressive effect on the company's stock price as an increase in supply of shares for sale, with no corresponding increase in demand will cause prices to fall.

 

All of the outstanding shares of common stock held by the present officers, directors, and affiliate stockholders are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144 provides in essence that a person who is an affiliate or officer or director who has held restricted securities for six months may, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1.0% of a Company's issued and outstanding common stock. There is generally no limit on the amount of restricted securities that may be sold by a non-affiliate after the owner has held the restricted securities for a period of six months if the Company is a current reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Securities Act of 1933 if available, or pursuant to subsequent registration of shares of common stock of present stockholders, may have depressive effect upon the price of the common stock in any market that may develop.

 

There may in all likelihood be little demand for shares of our common stock and as a result, investors may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if they need to liquidate their investment.

 

  12  

 

There may be little demand for shares of our common stock on the over-the-counter market, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near ask prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that it is a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if the Company came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven, early stage company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of any of our Securities until such time as it became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in the Company's securities is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on the securities price. We cannot give investors any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for the Company's common securities will develop or be sustained, or that any trading levels will be sustained. Due to these conditions, we can give investors no assurance that they will be able to sell their shares at or near ask prices or at all if they need money or otherwise desire to liquidate their securities of the Company.

 

We do not expect to pay dividends in the future; any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.

 

We do not currently anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting it at such time as the board of directors may consider relevant. Our current intention is to apply net earnings, if any, in the foreseeable future to increasing our capital base and development and marketing efforts. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever have sufficient earnings to declare and pay dividends to the holders of our common stock, and in any event, a decision to declare and pay dividends is at the sole discretion of our board of directors. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if its stock price appreciates.

 

Investors who purchase shares of our common stock should be aware of the possibility of a total loss of their investment.

 

An investment in our common stock involves a substantial degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should give careful consideration to the risk factors described in this section in addition to the other information contained in this Agreement. The risk factors described herein, however, may not reflect all of the risks associated with our business or an investment in our common stock. You should invest in our Company only if you can afford to lose your entire investment.

 

When we issue additional shares of common stock in the future, it will result in the dilution of our existing stockholders.

 

Our articles of incorporation, as amended, authorize the issuance of up to 990,000,000 shares of common stock with a $0.001 par value, and 57,337,505 shares of common stock are issued and outstanding as of September 18, 2019. When we issue additional shares of common stock, those issuances will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all current stockholders. Further, those issuances could potentially result in a change of control of the Company.

Our inability to maintain internal controls over financial reporting and procedures could have a material adverse effect on our investors’ confidence in our reported financial information. There is no guarantee that our internal controls over financial reporting and procedures will not fail in the future.

  13  

 

A review and evaluation was performed by the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of the end of the period covered by the annual report for the year ended December 31, 2018, on Form 10-K, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the annual report. Based on that review and evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of December 31, 2018, disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at ensuring that the material information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as required in the application of SEC rules and forms. Effective internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures are necessary to provide reliable financial reports and to detect and prevent fraud. Our significant assessment and remediation measures we have taken may not be sufficient to maintain investors’ confidence, and a damage to our reputation may result in an adverse impact to our financial position and results of operations. Our disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent all errors or all instances of fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, as opposed to absolute, assurances that the objectives of the control system will be met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our business have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Individual acts can also circumvent these controls through collusion of two or more people or through our executive’s override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and any design may not succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitation of a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may have occurred and may not have been detected. A failure in any of our internal controls and procedures may result in (i) enforcement actions by the SEC or other governmental or regulatory bodies; (ii) litigation; (iii) loss of reputation; (iv) loss of investor confidence; (v) inability to acquire capital; or (vi) other material adverse effects on our Company.

 

Under our articles of incorporation and Nevada law, we could issue “blank check” preferred stock without stockholder approval, which would dilute our then current stockholders’ interests and impair such stockholders’ voting rights, discouraging a takeover that our stockholders may consider favorable.

 

Our articles of incorporation, as amended, provides that we may authorize and issue up to 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock with designations, rights, and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our Board of Directors without shareholder approval. Our Board has issued 1,000,000 of Series B Preferred Stock, and is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue one or more series of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights, which could dilute the interest of or impair the voting power of our holders of common stock. The issuance of a series of preferred stock could be used as a method of discouraging, delaying, or preventing a change in control. For example, it would be possible for our Board to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of our Company.

 

If our Common Stock becomes subject to a “chill” or a “freeze” imposed by the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), our stockholders’ ability to sell shares may be limited.

The DTC acts as a depository or nominee for street name shares or stock that investors deposit with their brokers. Although through DTC our Common Stock is eligible for electronic settlement, historically DTC has imposed a chill or freeze on the deposit, withdrawal, and transfer of common stock of issuers whose common stock trades on the OTC Markets. Depending on the type of restriction, it can prevent our stockholders from buying or selling our shares of Common Stock and prevent us from raising money. A chill or freeze may remain imposed on a security for a few days or an extended period. While we have no reason to believe a chill or freeze will be imposed against our Common Stock, if DTC did so, our stockholders’ ability to sell their shares would be limited.

Risks Related to the Offering

 

Our existing stockholders may experience significant dilution from the sale of our common stock pursuant to the GHS Financing Agreement, which may cause our stock price to decline.

 

The sale of our common stock to GHS Investments, LLC in accordance with the Financing Agreement will have a dilutive impact on our shareholders. As a result, the market price of our common stock could decline. In addition, the lower our stock price is at the time we exercise our put options to sell shares to GHS, the more shares of our common stock we will have to issue to GHS in order to exercise a put under the Financing Agreement. If our stock price decreases, then our existing shareholders would experience greater dilution for any given dollar amount raised through the offering.

 

The perceived risk of dilution may cause our stockholders to sell their shares, which may cause a decline in the price of our common stock. Moreover, the perceived risk of dilution and the resulting downward pressure on our stock price could encourage investors to engage in short sales of our common stock. By increasing the number of shares offered for sale, material amounts of short selling could further contribute to progressive price declines in our common stock. GHS is not permitted to engage in short sales involving our common stock, or to engage in other activities that could manipulate the market for our common stock, during the period commencing July 5, 2019, and continuing through the termination of the Financing Agreement.

 

The issuance of shares pursuant to the GHS Financing Agreement may have a significant dilutive effect.

 

The number of shares we issue pursuant to the GHS Financing Agreement could have a significant dilutive effect upon our existing shareholders. Although the number of shares that we may issue pursuant to the Financing Agreement will vary based on our stock price (the higher our stock price, the fewer shares we would have to issue for a given put notice dollar amount), there may be a potentially significant dilutive effect to our shareholders, based on different potential future stock prices, if the full amount of the Financing Agreement is realized. Dilution is impacted by the number of shares of common stock put to GHS, and the stock price which GHS is bound to pay for such shares, which is discounted to reflect a purchase price of 85% of the lowest closing price during the 10-day pricing period (and the issuance of an additional 5% of shares to GHS with each put notice).

 

GHS Investments, LLC will pay less than the then-prevailing market price of our common stock, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.

 

Our common stock to be issued under the GHS Financing Agreement will be purchased at a fifteen percent (15%) discount to the “market price” during the pricing period. Stated more precisely, GHS will pay 85% of the lowest closing price during the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding each notice to GHS of an election to exercise our "put" right. Additionally, with each put notice, we are obligated to issue an additional 5% of each put notice amount to GHS in common stock. This means that GHS will be purchasing our shares at a discount equal to approximately 20%.

 

GHS has a financial incentive to sell our shares immediately upon receiving them, to realize the profit between the discounted price and the then-current market price. If GHS sells our shares, the price of our common stock may decrease. If our stock price decreases, GHS may have further incentive to sell shares they hold to maximize the proceeds of sale of those shares. Accordingly, the discounted sales price in the Financing Agreement may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

 

We will likely not have access to the full amount under the Financing Agreement.

 

On September 18, 2019, the lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock during the preceding 10 consecutive trading day period was approximately $0.01. At that price, we would be able to sell shares to GHS under the Financing Agreement at the discounted price of approximately $0.008/share. At that discounted price, the 13,300,000 shares registered for issuance to GHS under the Financing Agreement would, if sold by us to GHS, result in aggregate proceeds to the Company of only approximately $107,667. There is no assurance the price of our common stock will remain the same as the current market price or that it will increase.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The Company will use the proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock sold to GHS, for general corporate and working capital purposes, and continued business operations, or for other purposes that the Board of Directors, in good faith, deems to be in the best interest of the Company.

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

We have not set an offering price for the shares registered hereunder, as the only shares being registered are those sold pursuant to the Financing Agreement with GHS. GHS may sell all or a portion of the shares being offered pursuant to this prospectus at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at varying prices, or at negotiated prices.

 

DILUTION

 

Not applicable. The shares registered under this registration statement are not being offered for purchase. The shares are being registered on behalf of the selling shareholder, GHS, pursuant to the GHS Financing Agreement.

 

SELLING SECURITY HOLDER

 

The selling stockholder identified in this prospectus, GHS, may offer and sell up to 13,300,000 shares of our common stock, which consists of shares of common stock to be initially purchased by GHS pursuant to the Financing Agreement. If issued presently, the shares of common stock registered for resale by GHS would represent approximately 14% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, based on the number of issued and outstanding shares as of September 18, 2019 (57,337,505 shares).

 

We may require the selling stockholder to suspend the sales of the shares of our common stock being offered pursuant to this prospectus upon the occurrence of any event that makes any statement in this prospectus or the related registration statement untrue in any material respect or that requires the changing of statements in those documents in order to make statements in those documents not misleading.

 

The selling stockholder identified in the table below may from time to time offer and sell under this prospectus any or all of the shares of common stock described under the column “Shares of Common Stock Being Offered” in the table below.

 

GHS will be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act. Any profits realized by the selling stockholder may be deemed to be underwriting commissions.

 

We cannot give an estimate as to the number of shares of common stock that will actually be held by the selling stockholder upon termination of this offering, because the selling stockholder may offer some or all of the common stock under the offering contemplated by this prospectus or acquire additional shares of common stock. The total number of shares that may be sold hereunder will not exceed the number of shares offered hereby. Please read the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” in this prospectus.

 

The manner in which the selling stockholder acquired or will acquire shares of our common stock is discussed below under “The Offering.”

 

The following table sets forth the name of the selling stockholder, the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by such stockholder before this offering, the number of shares to be offered for such stockholder’s account and the number and (if one percent or more) the percentage of the class to be beneficially owned by such stockholder after completion of the offering. The number of shares owned are those beneficially owned, as determined under the rules of the SEC, and such information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares of our common stock as to which a person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and any shares of common stock which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days of September 18, 2019, through the exercise of any option, warrant or right, through conversion of any security or pursuant to the automatic termination of a power of attorney or revocation of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, and such shares are deemed to be beneficially owned and outstanding for computing the share ownership and percentage of the person holding such options, warrants or other rights, but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person. Beneficial ownership percentages are calculated based on 57,337,505 shares of our common stock outstanding as of September 18, 2019.

  16  

 

 

Unless otherwise set forth below, (a) the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to the shares set forth opposite the selling stockholder’s name, subject to community property laws, where applicable, and (b) no selling stockholder had any position, office or other material relationship within the past three years, with us or with any of our predecessors or affiliates. The number of shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned before the offering is based on information furnished to us or otherwise based on information available to us at the timing of the filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

GHS Investments, LLC (3)   0   13,300,000 (4)   0   0%

  

Notes:

 

  (1) Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to shares of common stock. Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants and convertible debentures currently exercisable or convertible, or exercisable or convertible within 60 days, are counted as outstanding. The actual number of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the convertible debentures is subject to adjustment depending on, among other factors, the future market price of our common stock, and could be materially less or more than the number estimated in the table.

 

  (2) Because the selling stockholder may offer and sell all or only some portion of the 13,300,000 shares of our common stock being offered pursuant to this prospectus and may acquire additional shares of our common stock in the future, we can only estimate the number and percentage of shares of our common stock that the selling stockholder will hold upon termination of the offering.

 

  (3) Mark Grober exercises voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares of our common stock that are beneficially owned by GHS.

 

  (4) Consists of up to 13,300,000 shares of common stock to be sold by GHS pursuant to the Financing Agreement.

THE OFFERING

 

On July 5, 2019, we entered into an Equity Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) with GHS Investments, LLC (“GHS”) for an equity line. Although we are not required to sell shares under the Financing Agreement, the Financing Agreement gives us the option to sell to GHS up to $7,000,000 worth of our common stock, in increments, over the period ending on the earlier of (i) the date GHS has purchased an aggregate of $7,000,000 of our common stock pursuant to the Financing Agreement, or (ii) the date that this registration statement is no longer in effect (the “Open Period”). $7,000,000 was stated to be the total amount of available funding in the Financing Agreement, because this was the maximum amount that GHS agreed to offer us in funding. There is no assurance the market price of our common stock will increase in the future, or that we will ever sell (i) $7,000,000 of our common stock to GHS, or (ii) all 13,300,000 shares being registered hereunder. The number of common shares that remain issuable to GHS may not be sufficient, dependent upon our share price, to allow us to access the full amount contemplated under the Financing Agreement. If the closing prices of our common stock remains the same and does not materially increase, we will not be able to place puts for the full commitment amount under the Financing Agreement. Based on the lowest closing price of our common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period preceding September 18, 2019, the registration statement covers the offer and possible sale of only approximately $133,000 worth of our shares. Upon execution of the Financing Agreement, we issued GHS a $30,000 promissory note as a commitment fee, with interest accruing at 8% per annum and the note maturing on January 5, 2020.

  

During the Open Period, the Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver a put notice (“Put Notice”) to GHS which shall state the dollar amount the Company intends to sell to GHS on a designated closing date (the “Put Amount”). The purchase price of the common stock pursuant to a Put Notice will be set at the lowest closing price of the common stock during the ten consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the date on which the Company delivers the Put Notice to GHS (the “Market Price”). We are obligated to deliver a number of shares to GHS equal to the Put Amount divided by 85% of the Market Price (representing a 15% discount to the Market Price), along with an additional 5% share premium (called “Transaction Costs Shares” pursuant to the Financing Agreement terms). For example, if we delivered a put notice to GHS for $10,000, we would be obligated to issue GHS $10,500 of our common stock (105% of the Put Amount to cover the 5% share “Transaction Costs” share premium) based on the 15% discount to the Market Price. The share premium GHS will receive with each put sale means that GHS will effectively be purchasing our shares at an approximately 19.05% discount to the Market Price (i.e., for each $10,000 put notice delivered to GHS by the Company, the actual Put Amount paid by GHS to the Company would only be approximately $8,095).

 

In addition, the Financing Agreement (i) imposes an ownership limitation on GHS of 4.99% (i.e., GHS has no obligation to purchase shares if it beneficially owns more than 4.99% of our common stock), (ii) requires a minimum of ten (10) trading days between put notices, and (iii) prohibits any single Put Amount from exceeding $400,000.

 

In order for the Company to be eligible to deliver put notices to GHS, the following conditions must be met: (i) a registration statement shall be declared effective and remain effective; (ii) at all times during the period beginning on the related put notice date and ending on and including the related closing date of the put, the Company’s common stock shall have been listed or quoted for trading on OTC Markets or its equivalent and shall not have been suspended from trading thereon for a period of two (2) consecutive trading days during the open period; (iii) the Company has not defaulted or be in breach of the Financing Agreement; (iv) no injunction shall be issued or remain in force in connection with the purchase of the Company’s shares; and (v) the issuance of the shares will not violate any shareholder approval requirements of OTC Markets. If any of the events described above occurs during a pricing period, then GHS shall have not obligation to purchase the shares delivered in the Put Notice. Further the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement entered into in connection with the Financing Agreement require that the Company use commercially reasonable efforts to have this registration statement be declared effective no more than 30 days following the date this registration statement was originally filed.

 

GHS is not permitted to engage in short sales involving our common stock, or to engage in other activities that could manipulate the market for our common stock, during the period commencing July 5, 2019, and continuing through the termination of the Financing Agreement. In accordance with Regulation SHO, however, sales of our common stock by GHS after delivery of a put notice of such number of shares reasonably expected to be purchased by GHS under a put will not be deemed short sales.

 

  18  

 

In order for the Company’s exercise of a put to be effective, we must deliver the documents, instruments and writings required under the Financing Agreement. GHS is not required to purchase the put shares unless:

 

· Our registration statement with respect to the resale of the shares of common stock delivered in connection with the applicable put shall have been declared effective;
· We shall have obtained all material permits and qualifications required by any applicable state for the offer and sale of the registrable securities; and
· We shall have filed all requisite reports, notices, and other documents with the SEC in a timely manner.

 

As we draw down on the equity line of credit reflected in the Financing Agreement, shares of our common stock will be sold into the market by GHS. The sale of these shares could cause our stock price to decline. In turn, if our stock price declines and we issue more put notices to GHS to purchase more of our shares, more shares will likely come into the market, which could cause a further drop in our stock price. The Company determines when and whether to issue a put to GHS, so the Company will know precisely both the stock price used as the reference point, and the number of shares issuable to GHS upon such exercise. You should be aware that there is an inverse relationship between the market price of our common stock and the number of shares to be issued under the equity line of credit. We have no obligation to utilize the full amount available under the equity line of credit, and we will likely not be able to do so.

 

Neither the Financing Agreement nor any of our rights or GHS’s rights thereunder may be assigned to any other person.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling stockholder may, from time to time, sell any or all of its shares of Company common stock through the OTC Link or any other stock exchange, quotation board, market or trading facility on which the shares of our common stock are quoted or traded, or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed prices, prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at varying prices, or at negotiated prices. The selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 

  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

  block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

  purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

  privately negotiated transactions;

 

  broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; or

 

  a combination of any such methods of sale.


Additionally, broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commissions in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction, a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

 

GHS is an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with such sales. Any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents, and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them, may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act of 1933. GHS has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Company’s common stock. Pursuant to a requirement by FINRA, the maximum commission or discount to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker-dealer may not be greater than 8% of the gross proceeds received by us for the sale of any securities being registered pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

  19  

 

 

Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be borne by the selling stockholder. The selling stockholder may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer, or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholder against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of any of the shares of our common stock by the selling stockholder. We will receive proceeds from the sale of our common stock to GHS under the Financing Agreement. Neither the Financing Agreement with GHS nor any rights of the parties under the Financing Agreement with GHS may be assigned or delegated to any other person.

 

We have entered into an agreement with GHS to keep this prospectus effective until GHS (i) has sold all of the common shares purchased by it under the Financing Agreement, and (ii) has no further right to acquire any additional shares of common stock under the Financing Agreement.

 

The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by the selling stockholder or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholder.

 

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED

  

In the discussion that follows, we have summarized selected provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes relating to our capital stock. This summary is not complete. This discussion is subject to the relevant provisions of Nevada law and is qualified by reference to our articles of incorporation and our bylaws. You should read the provisions of our articles of incorporation and our bylaws as currently in effect for provisions that may be important to you.

 

General

 

The Company is authorized to issue an aggregate number of 1,000,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 10,000,000 shares are blank check preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 990,000,000 shares are common stock, $0.001 par value per share.

 

Preferred Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. On March 27, 2019, the Company filed a certificate of designation with the State of Nevada to designate 1,000,000 shares of our preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock

 

  20  

 

The Series B Preferred Stock is not convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock or into any other shares of stock of the Company. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall entitle the holders thereof to 50 votes per share on any matter submitted to the holders of the common stock of the Company, or any class thereof, for a vote, and shall vote together with the common stock, or any class thereof, as applicable, on such matter for as long as the share of Series B Preferred Stock is issued and outstanding, provided, however, that such number of votes shall be equitably adjusted for any forward or reverse splits of the common stock. The Series B Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive dividends. The Series B Preferred Stock will not have any preferences upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntarily or involuntarily, a merger or consolidation of the Company wherein the Company is not the surviving entity, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive any distribution of any of the assets or surplus funds of the Company. The Series B Preferred shall not participate in any distributions or payments to the holders of the common stock or in any distributions to any other classes of preferred stock of the Company. The Company amend the designation of the Series B Preferred Stock without the prior written consent of holders of the Series B Preferred Stock holding a majority of the Series B Preferred then issued and outstanding.

 

On or about April 1, 2019, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred to Michael Chermak, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

Common Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 990,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. As of September 18, 2019, we have 57,337,505 shares of common stock issued and outstanding held by 47 shareholders of record, including shares held in “street name” by banks, brokerage clearing houses, depositories or otherwise in unregistered form. The Company does not know the beneficial owners of such shares, or the number of beneficial holders of such shares.

 

Each share of common stock shall have one (1) vote per share for all purposes. Our common stock does not provide a preemptive, subscription or conversion rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights. Our common stockholders are not entitled to cumulative voting for purposes of electing members to our board of directors.

 

Dividends

 

We have not paid any cash dividends to our shareholders. The declaration of any future cash dividends is at the discretion of our board of directors and depends upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations.

 

Warrants

As of June 30, 2019, there were outstanding warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 347,332 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. These warrants have up to a five year term and expire at various dates through January 2024 and may be exercised at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part.

Unless the shares of common stock underlying these warrants are registered, the warrants have a net exercise provision under which their holders may, in lieu of payment of the exercise price in cash, surrender the warrant and receive a net amount of shares based on the fair market value of our stock at the time of exercise of the warrants after deduction of the aggregate exercise price. These warrants contain provisions for adjustment of the exercise price and number of shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants in the event of certain stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations, reclassifications and consolidations.

 

Options

 

The Company does not have any outstanding options as of June 30, 2019.  

 

  21  

 

Market for our Securities

 

While there is no established public trading market for our Common Stock, our Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Link, LLC alternative trading system operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., at the “OTCQB” level under the symbol “OZSC”.

 

The market price of our Common Stock is subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in our quarterly operating results, general trends in the market and other factors, over many of which we have little or no control. In addition, broad market fluctuations, as well as general economic, business and political conditions, may adversely affect the market for our Common Stock, regardless of our actual or projected performance.

 

Anti-Takeover Provisions

 

Our charter and bylaws contain provisions that may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire or may discourage acquisition bids for us. Our Board may, without action of our stockholders, issue authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock. The existence of unissued preferred stock may enable the Board, without further action by the stockholders, to issue such stock to persons friendly to current management or to issue such stock with terms that could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us, thereby protecting the continuity of our management. Our shares of preferred stock could therefore be issued quickly with terms that could delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of us, or make removal of management more difficult.

 

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

 

None.

INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO THE REGISTRANT

 

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Our Corporate History

 

Ozop Surgical Corp. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) was originally incorporated as Newmarkt Corp. on July 17, 2015, under the laws of the State of Nevada, for the purpose of renting out Segways and bicycles. Following the acquisition of OZOP Surgical, Inc. as discussed below, we have been engaged in the business of inventing, designing, developing, manufacturing and distributing innovative endoscopic instruments, surgical implants, instrumentation, devices and related technologies, focused on spine, neurological and pain management procedures and specialties.

 

  22  

 

On April 13, 2018, we entered into and completed a share exchange agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement") with OZOP Surgical, Inc. (“OZOP”), the shareholders of OZOP (the “OZOP Shareholders”) and Denis Razvodovskij, the then holder of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the OZOP Shareholders transferred and exchanged 100% of the capital stock of OZOP in exchange for an aggregate of 25,000,000 newly issued shares of our common stock (the “Share Exchange”). After giving effect to the redemption of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Redemption Agreement discussed below and the issuance of 25,000,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we had 25,797,500 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, with the OZOP Shareholders, as a group, owning 96.9% of such shares. The merger was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby OZOP was considered the accounting acquirer and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger” or a “reverse acquisition,” the historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger were and will be replaced with the historical financial statements of OZOP prior to the reverse merger, in all future filings with the SEC. The consolidated financial statements after completion of the reverse merger have and will include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the combined company from and after the closing date of the reverse merger.

 

In connection with the acquisition of OZOP, we purchased and redeemed 2,000,000 shares of our common stock from Mr. Razvodovskij for a total purchase price of $350,000 pursuant to a Share Redemption Agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, effective April 13, 2018, Mr. Razvodovskij resigned as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and sole director, and Michael Chermak, Salman J. Chaudhry and Eric Siu were named as directors of the Company. On March 3, 2019, Mr. Thomas McLeer was named a director. Mr. Chaudhry resigned from our board of directors on March 4, 2019, and Mr. Siu resigned from the board on March 5, 2019.

 

On May 8, 2018, we amended our Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to change our name from Newmarkt Corp. to Ozop Surgical Corp. in order to reflect more accurately the name of our core service offering and operations. The Amendment also increased our authorized shares of capital stock to 300,000,000, of which 290,000,000 has been designated as common stock, par value $0.001, and 10,000,000 shares have been designated as preferred stock, par value $0.001 (the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock shall be issuable in such series, and with such designations, rights and preferences as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time. The Company’s trading symbol for its common stock which trades on the OTC PINK Tier of the OTC Markets, Inc. was changed to “OZSC” effective on May 21, 2018.

 

On April 19, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a Private Placement Memorandum (the “April PPM”), which as amended, was an offering of a minimum of $50,000 and up to $3,000,000 of up to 6,000,000 shares of common stock for a price of $0.50 per share (the “Purchase Price”). During the year ended December 31, 2018, we sold 500,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the April PPM and received proceeds of $250,000.

On October 13, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a Private Placement Memorandum (the “October PPM”) offering of a minimum of $50,000 and up to $3,000,000 of up to 6,000,000 units (a “Unit”), for a price of $0.50 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”) with each Unit consisting of one (1) share of Common Stock and a warrant (a “Warrant”) to purchase one (1) share of Common Stock, with each Warrant having a three year term and an exercise price of $1.00 per share of Common Stock. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we sold 100,000 Units of the October PPM at $0.50 per Unit, issued 100,000 shares of our common stock and received proceeds of $50,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we sold 200,000 Units of the October PPM at $0.50 per Unit, issued 200,000 shares of our common stock and received proceeds of $100,000.

 

On July 25, 2019, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized shares of capital stock to 1,000,000,000, consisting of 990,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001. 

 

OZOP History

 

OZOP was originally incorporated in Switzerland on November 28, 1998 under the name Perma Consultants Holding AG (“Perma”). On July 19, 2016, Mr. Eric Siu (“Siu”), one of our directors purchased 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Perma and changed the name from Perma to Ozop Surgical AG (“Ozop AG”). On February 1, 2018, Ozop AG was re-domiciled as a Delaware corporation and changed its name to Ozop Surgical, Inc. On July 28, 2016, Ozop formed as the sole member, Ozop Surgical, LLC (“Ozop LLC”), a Wyoming limited liability company. On October 28, 2016, Ozop acquired 100% of Ozop Surgical Limited (“Ozop HK”), from Siu, the sole shareholder of Ozop HK. Ozop HK, is a private limited company incorporated in Hong Kong.

 

  23  

 

On February 16, 2018, OZOP acquired the 100% membership interest (the “Membership Interest”) in Spinus, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Spinus), from RWO Medical Consulting LLC (“RWO”), a Texas limited liability company (the “Acquisition”). OZOP purchased the Membership Interest from RWO in exchange for; (i) 5,000,000 shares OZOP’s common stock and ii) the assumption of all liabilities of Spinus, including an obligation of $250,000 pursuant to a license agreement by and between Spinus and a third party (the “Assumed Debt”). The Assumed Debt is secured by Spinus’s assets and is due the earlier of (i) February 16, 2019 or (ii) 15 days subsequent to the Company completing a minimum of a $3,000,000 equity raise. The Company paid the $250,000 on November 20, 2018. The Company also will pay a royalty of 7% of net sales on any product sold utilizing any of the patents. There have not been any sales of the licensed products and accordingly, no royalties have been incurred.

 

Our Principal Products and Services

 

We are engaged in the business of inventing, designing, developing, manufacturing and distributing innovative endoscopic instruments, surgical implants, instrumentation, devices and related technologies, focused on spine, neurological and pain management procedures and specialties.

 

Our principal products and services include a full line of implants which can be used in +80% of all surgical spine cases, including:

 

Sales and Marketing

 

OZOP’s sales and marketing strategy is based on our market experience and an extensive network of personal relationships built over the careers of our founders and officers. These relationships include surgeons, institutional buyers, and a vast network of surgical product distributors throughout the US. The Company plans to sponsor ‘hands on’ clinical workshops for surgeons in the US to train practitioners in the new techniques and products. The overriding objective of this business approach is to generate steadily increasing revenue and build a customer base that will embrace the Company’s current and future products. This has the two-fold benefit of lowering the company’s capital requirements and decreasing new product adoption curve. It is important to note that the customers of the current product offering are the same buyers that we hope will adopt future products. The same physician customers and distribution partners are all prospects for the new products in development. In fact, in many cases, OZOP plans to use the attraction of early access to these new products as an inducement to secure their immediate business.

 

We primarily plan to sell our products to hospitals and surgical facilities by (i) employees and contracted sales representatives, and (ii) commission-paid distributors. Our representatives and commission-paid distributors use their business contacts to expand and establish relationships to build our target medical facility customer base. We also plan to execute and maintain stocking distribution agreements providing distributors exclusive or non- exclusive distribution rights in certain geographic areas for the sale and promotion of the products we offer. We believe our IP and exclusive distribution agreements can provide us with important competitive advantages by increasing our brand awareness and ensuring that we use the latest design and manufacturing technology for our products that are perceived to be important to our customers.

 

We plan to develop and expand our customer portfolio by building relationships with key medical professionals. We will provide on-going product training and support to our sales representatives and independent contractors along with product marketing materials to ensure customer satisfaction with the products we offer. We believe focusing on these key areas is essential to growing our customer base and revenues.

 

We have significant concentration in and dependence on a small number of customers. In 2018, two (2) customers represented one hundred percent (100%) of our consolidated net revenues. If we lose either customer relationship, without replacing them, it could adversely impact our business, future operating results, and financial condition.

Manufacturing

 

We contract primarily with small and medium-sized manufacturers that are subject to FDA compliance and approval standards. These manufacturers are highly innovative and cost effective because of their streamlined sales infrastructures. All of our manufacturing partners will be qualified to manufacture under the FDA’s Quality System Regulations/ISO 13485 standards. The Company intends to retain in-house the quality assurance function so that we can approve all products prior to their release to market.

 

We also intend to utilize high quality software in an effort to assure that our products remain compliant throughout all operations. The Company believes that there are no significant issues with availability of needed materials that would prevent us from meeting the projected market demand for our initial products in a timely manner. Packaging design and manufacturing will be outsourced to one or more experienced medical device packaging companies. The Company believes that this will allow for accelerated time to market and optimizing the shelf life of those products that are pre-packaged sterile.

 

Competition

 

The global spinal surgery market is characterized by strong competition. The worldwide spinal implant market currently includes over 220 manufacturers, but not all active competitors offer interbody spinal fusion devices in the United States. According to the 2018 Orthoworld, Inc., Orthopedic Industry Annual Report, the top ten companies account for approximately 80% of the overall market. The FDA's reclassification of spinal fusion devices from Class III to Class II in 2007 has attracted, and will continue to attract, new entrants in the market. The Company has recently seen a series of product launches and an increased focus on research and development activities, and it anticipates that intense competition between the new entrants and existing companies may lead to pricing pressure on all companies in the future.

 

According to the Orthoworld report, Medtronic Inc. dominates the global market for spinal surgery devices, with a market share of approximately 27%. The Company believes that this is due, in large part, to its broad portfolio of spinal fusion devices. DePuy Synthes ranks second at 16%. Other leading players with market shares of approximately 10% and 8%, respectively include NuVasive Inc. and Stryker Corporation.

 

We believe the competition in our industry is primarily caused by continued mergers and acquisitions of smaller companies by larger, vertically-integrated companies that produce, market and distribute medical devices and surgical implants. Our vertically-integrated competitors benefit from their ability to control costs for the devices they manufacture and distribute. Moreover, the market in which we operate is sensitive to changes in third-party and government reimbursements and, to a lesser degree, competitive discount pricing. We believe that our industry will continue to see increased mergers and acquisitions because the market is significantly fragmented with numerous medical device distributors and specialized suppliers offering similar product portfolios throughout the United States.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We own and license an expansive and formidable intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio. On February 1, 2018, Spinus entered into an Intellectual Property Licensing Agreement (the “Licensing Agreement”). Pursuant to the Spinus acquisition, the Company assumed the obligations under the Licensing Agreement and pledged the assets of Spinus as security. In consideration of $250,000 Spinus has the exclusive rights to certain patents and the non-exclusive rights to other patents. The patents surround mechanical or inflatable expandable interbody implant products. The $250,000 was due the earlier of (i) February 16, 2019, or (ii) 15 days subsequent to the Company completing a minimum of a $3,000,000 equity raise. The Company paid the $250,000 on November 20, 2018. The Company also will pay a royalty of 7% of net sales on any product sold utilizing any of the patents. There have not been any sales of the licensed products and accordingly, no royalties have been incurred.

 

The Company is in the process of expanding this portfolio and developing and bringing these products/procedures to market. Some of these products have short pathways to US regulatory approval, while others require a more resource intensive effort. We plan to pursue additional strategic alliances and partnerships through IP license agreements, and secure agreements from engineering firms and suppliers to build upon and to bring to market our portfolio of IP products.

Regulatory Issues

 

Our business is subject to highly complex federal and state regulations that may impact our ability to fully implement our strategic plans and initiatives. We are required to obtain and hold licenses and permits and to comply with the regulatory requirements of various governmental agencies. If we fail to comply with such regulatory requirements or if allegations are made that we fail to comply with such regulations, the economic viability of our Company may be adversely affected.

 

FDA Regulations

 

The manufacturers and suppliers of the products we market are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA, other federal governmental agencies, and state authorities. These laws and regulations govern the approval of, clearance of, or license to commercialize medical devices (such as implants). This includes compliance with the standards and requirements related to the design, testing, manufacture, labeling, promotion, and sales of the products, record keeping requirements, tracking of devices, reporting of potential product defects and adverse events, conduct of corrections, and recalls and other matters. As a distributor, marketer and repackager/relabeler of such FDA-regulated products, we are subject to independent requirements to register and list certain products. We may be required to obtain state licensure or certifications and we may be subject to inspections, in addition to complying with requirements that apply to the manufacturers of the products we market. Failure to comply with those applicable requirements could result in a wide variety of enforcement actions, ranging from warning letters to more severe sanctions such as fines, civil penalties, operating restrictions, injunctions, and criminal prosecutions.

 

Healthcare Laws and Regulations

 

We are required to comply with federal and state healthcare laws and regulations. Such healthcare fraud and abuse laws apply to the relationships that we or our distributors have with healthcare professionals and entities, such as physicians and hospitals. U.S. federal health care laws including laws related to false claims, health care fraud and abuse, physician self-referrals, and anti-kickbacks apply when we or our customers submit claims for items or services that are reimbursed under federally-funded health care programs (such as Medicare or Medicaid). State health care laws of a similar nature apply to state-funded health care programs and may also apply with private third-party payors. The requirements of these laws are complex and subject to varying interpretations. If we fail to comply with these laws, we could be subject to federal or state government investigations, substantial fines, exclusion from future participation in government healthcare programs, and civil or criminal sanctions. Such sanctions and damages could adversely affect the economic viability of our Company.

 

Employees

 

Other than our officers and directors, we currently do not have any employees. We plan on adding support staff for sales, marketing, distribution and administrative services in the third quarter of 2019.

Net Loss

The net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, was $1,917,241 and $2,821,397 respectively, compared to $608,600 and $866,547 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The increases are a result of the changes discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

Currently, we have limited operating capital. The Company anticipates that it will require a minimum of $6,000,000 of working capital to complete substantially all of its desired business activity for the next twelve months, including bringing new products to market as well as meeting the qualifications for an uplist to the NASDAQ market. The Company has achieved only limited revenues from its business operations. Our current capital and our other existing resources will be sufficient only to provide a limited amount of working capital, and, to date, the revenues generated from our business operations have not been sufficient to fund our operations or planned growth. As noted above, we will require additional capital to continue to operate our business, and to further expand our business. We may be unable to obtain the additional capital required. Our inability to generate capital or raise additional funds when required will have a negative impact on our operations, business development and financial results.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we primarily funded our business operations with $494,950 of proceeds from the issuances of convertible note financings as well as $100,000 from the sale of 200,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share. Of the proceeds $100,000 was used to make payments on convertible debt and for working capital. We may continue to rely on the issuance of convertible promissory notes to fund our business operations.

As of June 30, 2019, we had cash of $4,738 as compared to $50,903 at December 31, 2018. As of June 30, 2019, we had current liabilities of $3,682,862 (including $1,342,404 of non-cash derivative liabilities), compared to current assets of $17,062, which resulted in a working capital deficit of $3,665,800. The current liabilities are comprised of accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible debt, derivative liabilities and notes payable.

Operating Activities 

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $537,780, compared to $310,746 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, our net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to the net loss of $2,821,397, a gain of $68,372 on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities, adjusted for the loss of $559,567 in extinguishment of debt, non-cash expenses of interest and amortization and depreciation of $882,994, stock-based compensation of $706,702 and an impairment charge of $44,200. Net changes of $158,525 in operating assets and liabilities reduced the cash used in operating activities. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, our net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to the net loss of $866,547, the gain on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities and the gain in extinguishment of debt, adjusted by the non-cash expenses of interest and amortization and depreciation of $900,809. Net changes of $201,241 in operating assets and liabilities reduced the cash used in operating activities.

Investing Activities 

There were no investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, investing activities were comprised of the cash acquired in the Spinus acquisition of $21,580 and $4,941spent on purchased office equipment.

Financing Activities 

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the net cash provided by financing activities was $492,145, compared to $458,154 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we received $494,950 of proceeds from the issuances of convertible note financings, as well as $100,000 from the sale of 200,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share. The Company made payments on convertible debt of $100,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we received $600,000 of proceeds of $200,000 from the issuance of a note payable ($230,000) and received $400,000 from the issuances of convertible note financings ($492,175) as well as $250,000 from the sale of 500,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share. Payments of $350,000 was used to redeem 2,000,000 shares of common stock from our former CEO and we also made payments on convertible debt of $41,846.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

  

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements including arrangements that would affect our liquidity, capital resources, market risk support and credit risk support or other benefits.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in more details in the notes to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We believe the following accounting policies to be most critical to the judgement and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements:

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2019, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 16, 2019.

 

 Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes and stock warrants, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options, warrants and conversion of convertible notes. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Spinus was acquired in February 2018 and therefore there were no revenues in the 2017 period from Spinus.

The increase in other expense is primarily a result of increases in interest expense and amortization of debt discounts, partially offset by gains on extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

Net Loss

  

The net loss for the years ended December 31, 2018, and 2017, was $2,490,705 and $1,414,050, respectively. The increases are a result of the changes discussed above.

  

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

 

Currently, we have limited operating capital. The Company anticipates that it will require a minimum of $6,000,000 of working capital to complete substantially all of its desired business activity for the next twelve months, including bringing new products to market as well s meeting the qualifications for an uplist to the NASDAQ market. The Company has earned limited revenue from its business operations. Our current capital and our other existing resources will be sufficient only to provide a limited amount of working capital, and, to date, the revenues generated from our business operations have not been sufficient to fund our operations or planned growth. As noted above, we will require additional capital to continue to operate our business, and to further expand our business. We may be unable to obtain the additional capital required. Our inability to generate capital or raise additional funds when required will have a negative impact on our operations, business development and financial results.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2018, we primarily funded our business operations with $1,533,000 of proceeds from the issuance of a note payable ($230,000) and convertible note financings ($1,527,425) as well as $300,000 from the sale of 600,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share. Of the proceeds $350,000 was used to redeem 2,000,000 shares of common stock from our former CEO, $471,812 used to make payments on convertible debt of $201,800 and a note payable of $270,012 and for working capital. We are conducting a private placement offering to seek to raise the necessary working capital to continue to fund our business operations, or we may continue to rely on the issuance of convertible promissory notes to fund our business operations.

 

As of December 31, 2018, we had cash of $50,903 as compared to $111,035 at December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2018, we had current liabilities of $3,007,578 (including $1,199,514 of non-cash derivative liabilities), compared to current assets of $199,327, which resulted in a working capital deficit of $2,808,251. The current liabilities are comprised of accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible debt, derivative liabilities, license fees payable and notes payable.

 

Operating Activities 

 

For the year ended December 31, 2018, net cash used in operating activities was $835,377, compared to $972,845 for the year ended December 31, 2017. For the year ended December 31, 2018, our net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to the net loss of $2,490,705 and a gain of $661,853 in extinguishment of debt, adjusted by the non-cash expenses of interest and amortization and depreciation of $1,582,786, stock based compensation of $333,334 and loss on the change in fair value of derivatives of $33,787. Net changes of $366,274 in operating assets and liabilities reduced the cash used in operating activities. For the year ended December 31, 2017, our net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to the net loss adjusted by the net changes of $415,445 in operating assets and liabilities.

Investing Activities 

 

For the year ended December 31, 2018, cash used investing activities of $236,066 was comprised of the cash acquired in the Spinus acquisition of $21,580, offset by the purchase of office equipment of $7,646 and payment of $250,000 under the Spinus license agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company purchased office equipment of $1,944.

 

Financing Activities 

 

For the year ended December 31, 2018, the net cash provided by financing activities was $1,011,188, compared to $960,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we received $1,333,000 of proceeds from the issuance of a note payable ($230,000) and convertible note financings ($1,527,425) as well as $300,000 from the sale of 600,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share.

The net cash provided by financing activities of $960,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017, resulted from proceeds of $710,000 from the issuances of convertible notes and $250,000 from the issuance of notes payable.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in more details in the notes to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We believe the following accounting policies to be most critical to the judgement and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements:

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the consolidated accounts of the Company and Ozop and its’ wholly owned subsidiaries; Ozop LLC, Ozop HK and Spinus. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales of products, licensing agreements and contracts to perform pilot studies by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. For the comparative periods, revenue has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605 — Revenue Recognition. Under ASC 605, revenue is recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the performance of service has been rendered to a customer or delivery has occurred; (3) the amount of fee to be paid by a customer is fixed and determinable; and (4) the collectability of the fee is reasonably assured. There was no impact on the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting Topic 606 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

Research and Development

 

Costs and expenses that can be clearly identified as research and development are charged to expense as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded $88,572 and $264,563 of research and development expenses, respectively.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes and stock warrants, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options, warrants and conversion of convertible notes. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

  

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements including arrangements that would affect our liquidity, capital resources, market risk support and credit risk support or other benefits.

 

DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS, AND CONTROL PERSONS

 

The Board of Directors elects our executive officers annually. A majority vote of the directors who are in office is required to fill vacancies.

Family Relationships

 

None.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

No director, executive officer, significant employee or control person of the Company has been involved in any legal proceeding listed in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K in the past 10 years.

 

Corporate Governance

 

Our Board has not established any committees, including an audit committee, a compensation committee or a nominating committee, or any committee performing a similar function. The functions of those committees are being undertaken by our Board. Because we do not have any independent directors, our Board believes that the establishment of committees of our Board would not provide any benefits to our Company and could be considered more form than substance.

  

Given our relative size and lack of directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage, we do not anticipate that any of our stockholders will make such a recommendation in the near future. While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the event such a proposal is made, all current members of our Board will participate in the consideration of director nominees.

 

As with most small, early stage companies until such time as our Company further develops our business, achieves a revenue base and has sufficient working capital to purchase directors’ and officers’ insurance, we do not have any immediate prospects to attract independent directors. When we are able to expand our Board to include one or more independent directors, we intend to establish an audit committee of our Board of Directors. It is our intention that one or more of these independent directors will also qualify as an audit committee financial expert. Our securities are not quoted on an exchange that has requirements that a majority of our Board members be independent and we are not currently otherwise subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any portion of our Board of Directors include “independent” directors, nor are we required to establish or maintain an audit committee or other committee of our Board.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We adopted a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Management to promote honest and ethical conduct and to deter wrongdoing. This Code applies to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and other employees performing similar functions. The obligations of the Code of Ethics supplement, but do not replace, any other code of conduct or ethics policy applicable to our employees generally.

 

  37  

 

Under the Code of Ethics, all members of the senior financial management shall:

 

Act honestly and ethically in the performance of their duties at our company,
Avoid actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships,
Provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications by our company,
Comply with rules and regulations of federal, state and local governments and other private and public regulatory agencies that effect the conduct of our business and our financial reporting,
Act in good faith, responsibly, with due care, competence and diligence, without misrepresenting material facts or allowing the member’s independent judgment to be subordinated
Respect the confidentiality of information in the course of work, except when authorized or legally obtained to disclosure such information,
Share knowledge and maintain skills relevant to carrying out the member’s duties within our company,
Proactively promote ethical behavior as a responsible partner among peers and colleagues in the work environment and community,
Achieve responsible use of and control over all assets and resources of our company entrusted to the member, and
Promptly bring to the attention of the Chief Executive Officer any information concerning (a) significant deficiencies in the design or operating of internal controls which could adversely affect to record, process, summarize and report financial data or (b) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in our financial reporting or internal controls.

 

Director Independence

 

None of the members of our Board of Directors qualifies as an independent director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our Board has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our Board of Directors made these determinations, our Board would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.

 

In performing the functions of the audit committee, our board oversees our accounting and financial reporting process. In this function, our board performs several functions. Our board, among other duties, evaluates and assesses the qualifications of the Company’s independent auditors; determines whether to retain or terminate the existing independent auditors; meets with the independent auditors and financial management of the Company to review the scope of the proposed audit and audit procedures on an annual basis; reviews and approves the retention of independent auditors for any non-audit services; reviews the independence of the independent auditors; reviews with the independent auditors and with the Company’s financial accounting personnel the adequacy and effectiveness of accounting and financial controls and considers recommendations for improvement of such controls; reviews the financial statements to be included in our annual and quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and discusses with the Company’s management and the independent auditors the results of the annual audit and the results of our quarterly financial statements.

 

Our board as a whole will consider executive officer compensation, and our entire board participates in the consideration of director compensation. Our board as a whole oversees our compensation policies, plans and programs, reviews and approves corporate performance goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our executive officers, if any, and administers our equity incentive and stock option plans, if any.

 

Each of our directors participates in the consideration of director nominees. In addition to nominees recommended by directors, our board will consider nominees recommended by shareholders if submitted in writing to our secretary. Our board believes that any candidate for director, whether recommended by shareholders or by the board, should be considered on the basis of all factors relevant to our needs and the credentials of the candidate at the time the candidate is proposed. Such factors include relevant business and industry experience and demonstrated character and judgment.

 

  38  

 

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s directors and executive officers, persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, and certain other persons to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership on Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the SEC, and to furnish the Company with copies of the forms. Based solely on its review of the forms it received, or written representations from reporting persons, the Company believes that all of its directors, executive officers and greater than 10% beneficial owners complied with all such filing requirements during 2018.

OZOP SURGICAL, CORP

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2019

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

 

Business

 

Ozop Surgical Corp. (the” Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) was originally incorporated as Newmarkt Corp. on July 17, 2015, under the laws of the State of Nevada, for the purpose of the renting different kind of Segways and bicycles, dual wheels self-balancing electric scooters and related safety equipment. Following the acquisition of OZOP Surgical, Inc. as discussed below, we have been engaged in the business of inventing, designing, developing, manufacturing and distributing innovative endoscopic instruments, surgical implants, instrumentation, devices and related technologies, focused on spine, neurological and pain management procedures and specialties.

 

Reverse Merger

 

On April 13, 2018, we entered into and completed a share exchange agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement") with OZOP Surgical, Inc. (“OZOP”), the shareholders of OZOP (the “OZOP Shareholders”) and Denis Razvodovskij, the then holder of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the OZOP Shareholders transferred and exchanged 100% of the capital stock of OZOP in exchange for an aggregate of 25,000,000 newly issued shares of our common stock (the “Share Exchange”). After giving effect to the redemption of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Redemption Agreement discussed below and the issuance of 25,000,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we had 25,797,500 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, with the OZOP Shareholders, as a group, owning 96.9% of such shares. Currently, our executive officers and directors, as a group, own 6,374,223 of our shares representing 21.81 % of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The merger was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby OZOP was considered the accounting acquirer and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger” or a “reverse acquisition,” the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger were and will be replaced with the historical financial statements of OZOP prior to the reverse merger, in all future filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

In connection with the acquisition of OZOP, we purchased and redeemed 2,000,000 shares of our common stock from Mr. Razvodovskij for a total purchase price of $350,000 pursuant to a Share Redemption Agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, effective April 13, 2018, Mr. Razvodovskij resigned as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and sole director, and Michael Chermak, Salman J. Chaudhry (who resigned March 4, 2019) and Eric Siu (who resigned March 5, 2019) were named as directors of the Company.

 

Corporate Matters

 

On March 28, 2019, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to designate 1,000,000 shares as Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is not convertible into common stock, nor does the Series B Preferred Stock have any right to dividends and any liquidation preference. The Series B Preferred Stock entitles its holder to a number of votes per share equal to 50 votes. On April 1, 2019, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to the Company’s CEO. The shares were valued at $68,000 of which $25,000 was applied to accrued liabilities-related and $43,000 was recorded as stock-based compensation expense-related parties.

 

OZOP

 

OZOP was originally incorporated in Switzerland on November 28, 1998 under the name Perma Consultants Holding AG (“Perma”). On July 19, 2016, Mr. Eric Siu (“Siu”), one of our directors purchased 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Perma and changed the name from Perma to Ozop Surgical AG (“Ozop AG”). On February 1, 2018, Ozop AG was re-domiciled as a Delaware corporation and changed its name to Ozop Surgical, Inc. On July 28, 2016, Ozop formed as the sole member, Ozop Surgical, LLC (“Ozop LLC”), a Wyoming limited liability company. On October 28, 2016, Ozop acquired 100% of Ozop Surgical Limited (“Ozop HK”), from Siu, the sole shareholder of Ozop HK. Ozop HK, is a private limited company incorporated in Hong Kong.

 

  F-7  

 

On February 16, 2018, OZOP acquired the 100% membership interest (the “Membership Interest”) in Spinus, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Spinus), from RWO Medical Consulting LLC (“RWO”), a Texas limited liability company (the “Acquisition”). OZOP purchased the Membership Interest from RWO in exchange for; (i) 5,000,000 shares OZOP’s common stock and ii) the assumption of all liabilities of Spinus, including an obligation of $250,000 pursuant to a license agreement by and between Spinus and a third party (the “Assumed Debt”). OZOP acquired Spinus to gain control of a license rights agreement for exclusive rights to intellectual property related to minimally invasive spine surgery techniques. The Assumed Debt of $250,000 was paid in November 2018.

 

The following table summarizes the final valuation of the consideration issued and the purchase price allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition:

 

    Purchase Price Allocation
 Fair value of consideration issued   $ 250,000  
 Liabilities assumed     278,779  
Total purchase consideration   $ 528,779  
Assets acquired   $ 289,628  
Tradename     44,200  
Goodwill     194,951  
    $ 528,779  

 

The total purchase price of $528,779 has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values as of the completion of the Acquisition. These allocations reflect various estimates that are currently available. The final fair value of Spinus’s identifiable intangible assets were determined primarily using the income approach which requires an estimate or forecast of all the expected future cash flows, either through the use of the relief-from-royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method. The Company will record amortization expense assuming a straight-line basis over the expected life of the finite lived intangible assets, which approximates expected future cash flows.

 

Goodwill represents the amount by which the estimated consideration transferred exceeds the historical costs of the assets the Company acquired and the liabilities the Company assumed. The Company will not amortize the goodwill, but will instead test the goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events or circumstances have occurred that may indicate a possible impairment.

Emerging Growth Companies

 

The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the 2012 JOBS Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As an emerging growth company, the Company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original term of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash and cash equivalent balances may, at certain times, exceed federally insured limits

 

Sales Concentration and credit risk

 

Following is a summary of customers who accounted for more than ten percent (10%) of the Company’s revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, and their accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2019:

 

    Sales % Three Months Ended June 30, 2019   Sales % Three Months Ended June 30, 2018   Sales % Six Months Ended June 30, 2019   Sales % Six
Months Ended
June 30, 2018
 

Accounts receivable balance

June 30, 2019

Customer A     100 %     43.6 %     100 %     48 %   $ 3,228  
Customer B     —         56.4 %     —         52 %     —    

 

Accounts Receivable


The Company records accounts receivable at the time products and services are delivered. An allowance for losses is established through a provision for losses charged to expenses. Receivables are charged against the allowance for losses when management believes collectability is unlikely. The allowance (if any) is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses on existing receivables, based on evaluation of the collectability of the accounts and prior loss experience.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory, which will consist of finished goods, is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first in first out (FIFO) method. Provision for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory is made based on management analysis or inventory levels and future sales forecasts.

 

Purchase concentration

 

The principal purchases by the Company is comprised of finished goods that the Company sells to its customers. Following is a summary of suppliers who accounted for more than ten percent (10%) of the Company’s purchases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018:

 

  F-9  

 

    Purchase % Three Months Ended June 30, 2019   Purchase % Three Months Ended June 30, 2018   Purchase % Six Months Ended June 30, 2019   Purchase % Six
Months Ended
June 30, 2018
Supplier A     100 %     41.3 %     100 %     45.7 %
Supplier B     —         58.7 %     —         54.3 %

 

Management believes that other suppliers could provide similar raw materials on comparable terms. A change in suppliers, however, could cause a delay and a possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect the Company's business, financial position and results of operations.

 

Property, plant and equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, and depreciation is provided by use of a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

Office equipment

 

The Company reviews property and equipment for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of assets may not be recoverable. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment is as follows:

 

    June 30, 2019   December 31, 2018
Office equipment   $ 9,590     $ 9.590  
Less: Accumulated Depreciation     (3,990 )     (2,391 )
Property and Equipment, Net   $ 5,600     $ 7,199  

 

Depreciation expense was $1,599 and $435 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets primarily represent purchased license rights and trademarks. The Company amortizes these costs over the shorter of the legal life of the patent or its estimated economic life using the straight-line method. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company impaired $44,200 of tradenames as management has decided not to go forward with the use of the trade name Spinus. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded amortization expense of $20,834. There was no amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill is measured as the excess of consideration transferred and the net of the acquisition date fair value of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed in a business acquisition. In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other,” goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer subject to amortization but are tested for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company reviews the goodwill allocated to each of our reporting units for possible impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate carrying amount may not be recoverable. When assessing goodwill for impairment, the Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its’ carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its’ carrying amount, then the Company performs a two-step impairment test. If the Company concludes otherwise, then no further action is taken. The Company also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment and only perform a quantitative assessment, which is the first step of the two-step impairment test. In the two-step impairment test, the Company measures the recoverability of goodwill by comparing a reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill, to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. There were no events or changes in circumstances that indicated potential impairment of goodwill during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

  F-10  

 

 

In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company assesses relevant events and circumstances that may impact the fair value and the carrying amount of the reporting unit. The identification of relevant events and circumstances, and how these may impact a reporting unit’s fair value or carrying amount involve significant judgments and assumptions. The judgment and assumptions include the identification of macroeconomic conditions, industry, and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance and share price trends, and making the assessment as to whether each relevant factor will impact the impairment test positively or negatively and the magnitude of any such impact.

 

The carrying amount of each reporting unit is determined based upon the assignment of our assets and liabilities, including existing goodwill and other intangible assets, to the identified reporting units. Where an acquisition benefits only one reporting unit, the Company allocates, as of the acquisition date, all goodwill for that acquisition to the reporting unit that will benefit. Where the Company has had an acquisition that benefited more than one reporting unit, The Company has assigned the goodwill to our reporting units as of the acquisition date such that the goodwill assigned to a reporting unit is the excess of the fair value of the acquired business, or portion thereof, to be included in that reporting unit over the fair value of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed that are assigned to the reporting unit.

 

If the carrying amount of a reporting unit is in excess of its fair value, an impairment may exist, and the Company must perform the second step of the impairment analysis to measure the amount of the impairment loss, by allocating the reporting unit’s fair value to its assets and liabilities other than goodwill, comparing the carrying amount of the goodwill to the resulting implied fair value of the goodwill, and recording an impairment charge for any excess.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales of products by: (1) identify the contract (if any) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract (if any); (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract (if any); and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging Activities.

 

  F-11  

 

Applicable GAAP requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under other GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

 

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has been determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) as follows: The Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their stated date of redemption.

 

The Company accounts for the conversion of convertible debt when a conversion option has been bifurcated using the general extinguishment standards. The debt and equity linked derivatives are removed at their carrying amounts and the shares issued are measured at their then-current fair value, with any difference recorded as a gain or loss on extinguishment of the two separate accounting liabilities.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level. 

 

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value: 

 

  · Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  · Level 2 - Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
  · Level 3 - Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company's assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

 

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, certain notes payable and notes payable - related party, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. 

 

The following table represents the Company’s financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, for each fair value hierarchy level:

 

June 30, 2019   Derivative
Liabilities
  Total
Level I   $ —       $ —    
Level II   $ —       $ —

Income Taxes

  

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance on deferred tax assets is established when management considers it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Tax benefits from an uncertain tax position are only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as incurred as a component of income tax expense. The Company has not recognized any tax benefits from uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The accounts of the Company's Hong Kong subsidiary are maintained in Hong Kong dollars and the accounts of the U.S. companies are maintained in USD. The accounts of the Hong Kong subsidiary were translated into USD in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters. According to Topic 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date; stockholders' equity is translated at historical rates and statement of comprehensive income items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income. Gains and losses resulting from the foreign currency transactions are reflected in the statements of comprehensive income.

 

Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows for the periods ended June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, (Hong Kong dollar per one U.S. dollar):

 

    June 30, 2019   December 31, 2018
Balance sheet date     .1279       .1277  
Average rate for statements of operations and comprehensive loss     .1275       .1276  

  

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes and stock warrants, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options, warrants and conversion of convertible notes. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business” (“ASU 2017-01”). The Amendments in this Update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those periods. Early adoption of this standard is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2018, with no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

  

With the exception of the new standard discussed above, there have been no other recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the six months ended June 30, 2019, that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.

NOTE 4 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

During the year ended December 31, 2017, OZOP issued 19 convertible promissory notes (the “2017 Notes”), in amounts of $10,000 to $50,000. OZOP received proceeds of $710,000 in the aggregate. Of the 2017 Notes, $50,000 was from the wife of one of our Directors at the time (see Note 7). The 2017 Notes mature(d) on their one- year anniversary and bear interest at ten percent (10%). The initial conversion feature allowed the holders to convert the note and any unpaid interest due, into shares of the Company’s common stock on the 15th business day that the Company becomes listed, at conversion prices equal to discounts of 35%-50% of the average of the three lowest closing prices of the common stock. In August 2018, the Company offered any noteholder to convert their principal and interest into shares of common stock at $0.50 per share. OZOP also issued $25,500 of convertible notes for consulting fees. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued a $50,000 convertible promissory note (the “March 2018 Note”) and received proceeds of $50,000. The Company determined that the conversion feature of the 2017 Notes and the March 2018 Note (together, the “Notes”) did not meet the criteria of an embedded derivative and therefore the conversion feature was not bi-furcated and accounted for as a derivative because the Company was a private company, there was no quoted price and no active market for the Company’s common stock.

 

  F-14  

 

On April 13, 2018, the Company determined the conversion feature of the Notes represented an embedded derivative since the Notes were convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, on April 13, 2018, the Notes were not considered to be conventional debt under ASC 815 and the embedded conversion feature was bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability. Accordingly, the fair value of the derivative instruments of the Notes that occurred prior to April 13, 2018, were recorded as a liability on April 13, 2018, with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the Note. Such discount was amortized from the date of issuance to the maturity dates of the Notes. The change in the fair value of the liability for derivative contracts are recorded in other income or expenses in the reporting period, with the offset to the derivative liability on the balance sheet. The embedded feature included in the Notes resulted in an initial debt discount of $620,075, interest expense of $14,000 and initial derivative liability of $634,075. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the outstanding principal balance of the 2017 Notes was $165,000.

 

On April 13, 2018, we issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $442,175 (the “Note”), pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement we entered into with an investor dated April 1, 2018. The Note bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum and is due and payable on April 13, 2019. The note is convertible at any time following the funding of the note into a variable number of the Company's common stock, based on a conversion ratio of 55% of the average of the lowest trading price for the 25 days prior to conversion. The note was funded on April 13, 2018, when the Company received proceeds of $350,000, after OID of $57,675, and disbursements for the lender’s transaction costs, fees and expenses of $34,500, of which $25,000 were recorded as discounts against the debt to be amortized into interest expense through maturity. Periodic payments are due by us on the Note at the rate of $850 per day (the “Repayment Amount”) via direct withdrawal from our bank account, beginning on April 27, 2018 and to last for a 30-day period. Following this period, the Repayment Amount increased to $1,100 per day until the Note is satisfied in full. On June 28, 2018, the Note was amended to increase the Repayment Amount to $1,750 per day. On August 29, 2018, the parties agreed to stop the Repayment Amount, and on November 20, 2018, the parties agreed to restart the Repayment Amount at $1,000 per day. From time to time the investor waives any Repayment Amount for a period of time as agreed upon. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, principal payments of $50,000 were made. The embedded conversion feature included in the note resulted in an initial debt discount of $359,500 interest expense of $150,730 and an initial derivative liability of $510,230. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, amortization of the debt discounts of $53,896 was charged to interest expense.

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES  

 

On April 13, 2018, the Company determined the conversion feature of the Notes represented an embedded derivative since the Notes were convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, on April 13, 2018, the Notes were not considered to be conventional debt under ASC 815 and the embedded conversion feature was bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability.

 

The Company valued the derivative liabilities at June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, at $1,342,404 and $1,199,514, respectively. The Company used the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model with the following assumptions as of June 30, 2019, 2018, risk-free interest rates from 1.96% to 2.09% and volatility of 34% to 41%, and as of December 31, 2018; risk-free interest rates from 2.56% to 2.62% and volatility of 61% to 65%. The initial derivative liabilities for convertible notes issued during the six months ended June 30, 2019, used the following assumptions; risk-free interest rates from 2.25% to 2.58% and volatility of 39% to 63%.

 

A summary of the activity related to derivative liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and the year ended December 31, 2018, is as follows:

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES

The Company was incorporated in the United States and has operations in two tax jurisdictions - the United States and Hong Kong. The Company’s HK subsidiary is subject to a 16.5% profit tax based on its taxable net profit. The Company’s U.S. operations are subject to income tax according to U.S. tax law.

A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes determined at the U.S. statutory rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate is as follows:

    Six Months Ended
    June 30,
    2019   2018
Pre-tax loss   $ (2,821,397 )   $ (866,547 )
U.S. federal corporate income tax rate     21 %     21 %
Expected U.S. income tax credit     (592,493 )     (181,975 )
Tax rate difference between U.S. and foreign operations     289       2,699  
Permanent differences     414,713       71,445  
Change of valuation allowance     174,491       179,276  
Effective tax expense   $ —       $ —    

The Company had deferred tax assets as follows:

    June 30, 2019   December 31, 2018
Net operating losses carried forward   $ 744,314     $ 569,822  
Less: Valuation allowance     (744,314 )     (569,822 )
Net deferred tax assets   $ —       $ —    

 

  F-22  

 

As of June 30, 2019, the Company has approximately $3,077,000 and $595,000 net operating loss carryforwards available in the United States and Hong Kong, respectively, to reduce future taxable income. The net operating loss from Hong Kong operations can be carried forward with no time limit from the year of the initial loss pursuant to relevant Hong Kong tax laws and regulations. For U.S. purposes the NOL deduction for a tax year is equal to the lesser of (1) the aggregate of the NOL carryovers to such year, plus the NOL carry-backs to such year, or (2) 80% of taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction). Generally, NOLs can no longer be carried back but are allowed to be carried forward indefinitely. The special extended carryback provisions are generally repealed, except for certain farming and insurance company losses. The amendments incorporating the 80% limitation apply to losses arising in tax years beginning after Dec. 31, 2017. It is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets cannot be utilized in the future because there will not be significant future earnings from the entity which generated the net operating loss. Therefore, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

 

As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company has no material unrecognized tax benefits which would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods, and does not believe that there will be any significant increases or decreases of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months. No interest or penalties relating to income tax matters have been imposed on the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, and no provision for interest and penalties is deemed necessary as of June 30, 2019, and 2018.

 

The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act) was enacted on December 22, 2017 and introduces significant changes to U.S. income tax law. Effective in 2018, the Tax Act reduces the U.S. statutory tax rate from 35% to 21% and creates new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings and certain related-party payments, which are referred to as the global intangible low-taxed income tax and the base erosion tax, respectively. The Tax Act requires the Company to pay U.S. income taxes on accumulated foreign subsidiary earnings not previously subject to U.S. income tax at a rate of 15.5% to the extent of foreign cash and certain other net current assets and 8% on the remaining earnings.

 

Since the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have not generated income since inception, the Company believes that Tax Act will not have significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In exchange for the services to be provided by Draper pursuant to the consulting agreement, the Company agreed to issue Draper a total of 1,800,000 unregistered shares of the Company’s $0.001 par value per share, common stock, with 450,000 shares issued upon execution of the Consulting Agreement, and with 150,000 shares be issued and delivered each month at the beginning of the fourth month to the beginning of the twelve month, until the total amount of shares is issued. Either party can terminate the Consulting Agreement by giving 30 days written notice to the other party. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded 900,000 shares of common stock to be issued, and valued the shares at $400,470, based on the market price of the common stock on the date of the shares being earned. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the company amortized $395,920 as stock-based compensation expense. As of June 30, 2019, there are 900,000 shares of common stock to be issued.

 

Preferred stock

 

As of June 30, 2019, 10,000,000 shares have been authorized as preferred stock, par value $0.001 (the “Preferred Stock”), which such Preferred Stock shall be issuable in such series, and with such designations, rights and preferences as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time. On March 28, 2019, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to designate 1,000,000 shares as Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is not convertible into common stock, nor does the Series B Preferred Stock have any right to dividends and any liquidation preference. The Series B Preferred Stock entitles its holder to a number of votes per share equal to 50 votes. On April 1, 2019, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to the Company’s CEO.

 

Stock subscription receivable

 

On February 9, 2018, the Company recorded a stock subscription receivable from its officers and directors of $7,600 related to the issuance of 7,600,000 shares of common stock.

NOTE 12 – GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $3,272,541 and a working capital deficit of $3,665,800. In addition, the Company has generated losses since inception. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

Management’s Plans

 

In April 2018, OZOP entered into and completed a share exchange agreement with the Company (see Note 1), a publicly traded company. As a public company, management believes it will be able to access the public equities market for fund raising for product development and regulatory approvals, sales and marketing and as we expand our distribution in the US market, we will need to meet increasing inventory requirements.

 

 

NOTE 13 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On July 5, 2019, the Company entered into an Equity Financing Agreement (the “Equity Agreement”) with GHS Investments, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Investor”), with the Investor committing to purchase up to $7,000,000 of the Company’s common stock in tranches of up to $400,000, following an effective registration of the shares and subject to restrictions regarding the timing of each sale and total percentage stock ownership held by the Investor. The purchase price for the shares will be 85% of the lowest closing price during the 10-day period prior to each sale, and with each sale, the Investor will receive an issuance premium of 5% to cover the Investor’s transaction costs associated with selling the shares and payable by the Company to the Investor in registered shares. The obligation of the Investor to purchase shares pursuant to the Equity Agreement is subject to several conditions, including (i) that the Company has filed a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) registering the shares to be sold to the Investor within 30 calendar days from the date of the Equity Agreement, with the Registration Statement being declared effective prior to sale of any shares to the Investor; and (ii) that the purchase of shares by the Investor pursuant to the Equity Agreement shall not cause the Investor to own more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

In connection with the Equity Agreement, on July 5, 2019, the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), requiring the Company to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement filed with the SEC within 30 calendar days of July 5, 2019, and declared effective by the SEC within 30 calendar days thereafter. Additionally, on July 5, 2019, the Company issued to the Investor two promissory notes, one in the amount of $30,000 (“Note 1”) to cover the Investor’s transaction costs of entering into the Equity Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, and a second promissory note of $15,000 (“Note 2”), issued in exchange for cash consideration of $15,000. Note 1 and Note 2 mature on January 5, 2020, and bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum.

 

On August 2, 2019, the Company issued to a third-party investor a convertible redeemable promissory note (the “Note”) with a face value of $157,500. The note matures on August 2, 2020, has a stated interest of 12% and is convertible into a variable number of the Company's common stock, based on a conversion ratio of 60% of the average of the two lowest closing bid prices for the 20 days prior to conversion. The note was funded on August 2, 2019, when the Company received proceeds of $150,000, after disbursements for the lender’s transaction costs, fees and expenses.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. The Company has determined that there are no other such events that warrant disclosure or recognition in the financial statements, except as stated herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Ozop Surgical Corp.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ozop Surgical Corp. (the Company) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $2,348,360 and a working capital deficit of $2,808,251. In addition, the Company has generated losses since inception. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 12 to the accompanying financial statements. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(the” Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) was originally incorporated as Newmarkt Corp. on July 17, 2015, under the laws of the State of Nevada, for the purpose of the renting different kind of Segways and bicycles, dual wheels self-balancing electric scooters and related safety equipment. Following the acquisition of OZOP Surgical, Inc. as discussed below, we have been engaged in the business of inventing, designing, developing, manufacturing and distributing innovative endoscopic instruments, surgical implants, instrumentation, devices and related technologies, focused on spine, neurological and pain management procedures and specialties.

 

Reverse Merger

 

On April 13, 2018, we entered into and completed a share exchange agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement") with OZOP Surgical, Inc. (“OZOP”), the shareholders of OZOP (the “OZOP Shareholders”) and Denis Razvodovskij, the then holder of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the OZOP Shareholders transferred and exchanged 100% of the capital stock of OZOP in exchange for an aggregate of 25,000,000 newly issued shares of our common stock (the “Share Exchange”). After giving effect to the redemption of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Redemption Agreement discussed below and the issuance of 25,000,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we had 25,797,500 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, with the OZOP Shareholders, as a group, owning 96.9% of such shares. Currently, our executive officers and directors, as a group, own 6,374,223 of our shares representing 21.81 % of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The merger was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby OZOP was considered the accounting acquirer and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger” or a “reverse acquisition,” the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger were and will be replaced with the historical financial statements of OZOP prior to the reverse merger, in all future filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

In connection with the acquisition of OZOP, we purchased and redeemed 2,000,000 shares of our common stock from Mr. Razvodovskij for a total purchase price of $350,000 pursuant to a Share Redemption Agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, effective April 13, 2018, Mr. Razvodovskij resigned as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and sole director, and Michael Chermak, Salman J. Chaudhry (resigned March 4, 2019) and Eric Siu (resigned March 5, 2019) were named as directors of the Company.

 

Corporate Matters

 

On May 8, 2018, we amended our Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to change our name from Newmarkt Corp. to Ozop Surgical Corp. in order to reflect more accurately the name of our core service offering and operations. The Amendment also increased our authorized shares of capital stock to 300,000,000, of which 290,000,000 has been designated as common stock, par value $0.001, and 10,000,000 shares have been designated as preferred stock, par value $0.001 (the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock shall be issuable in such series, and with such designations, rights and preferences as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time.

 

On March 28, 2019, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to designate 1,000,000 shares as Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is not convertible into common stock, nor does the Series B Preferred Stock have any right to dividends and any liquidation preference. The Series B Preferred Stock entitles its holder to a number of votes per share equal to 50 votes. On March 29, 2019, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock to the Company’s CEO in consideration of $25,000 of accrued expenses, the Company’s failure to timely pay current and past due management fees, and the willingness to accrue unpaid management fees.

OZOP

 

OZOP was originally incorporated in Switzerland on November 28, 1998 under the name Perma Consultants Holding AG (“Perma”). On July 19, 2016, Mr. Eric Siu (“Siu”), one of our directors purchased 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Perma and changed the name from Perma to Ozop Surgical AG (“Ozop AG”). On December 20, 2016, our shareholders purchased Blitz 16-577 AG, a German company from the sole shareholder, and changed the name of the corporation to Ozop Medical AG (“Ozop Medical”). On February 1, 2018, Ozop AG was re-domiciled as a Delaware corporation and changed its name to Ozop Surgical, Inc. On July 28, 2016, Ozop formed as the sole member, Ozop Surgical, LLC (“Ozop LLC”), a Wyoming limited liability company. On October 28, 2016, Ozop acquired 100% of Ozop Surgical Limited (“Ozop HK”), from Siu, the sole shareholder of Ozop HK. Ozop HK, is a private limited company incorporated in Hong Kong.

 

On February 16, 2018, OZOP acquired the 100% membership interest (the “Membership Interest”) in Spinus, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Spinus), from RWO Medical Consulting LLC (“RWO”), a Texas limited liability company (the “Acquisition”). OZOP purchased the Membership Interest from RWO in exchange for; (i) 5,000,000 shares OZOP’s common stock and ii) the assumption of all liabilities of Spinus, including an obligation of $250,000 pursuant to a license agreement by and between Spinus and a third party (the “Assumed Debt”). The Assumed Debt is secured by Spinus’s assets and is due the earlier of (i) February 16, 2019 or (ii) 15 days subsequent to the Company completing a minimum of a $3,000,000 equity raise. OZOP acquired Spinus to gain control of a license rights agreement for exclusive rights to intellectual property related to minimally invasive spine surgery techniques. The Assumed Debt of $250,000 was paid in November 2018.

 

The following table summarizes the preliminary value of the consideration issued and the preliminary purchase price allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition:

    Purchase Price Allocation
Fair value of consideration issued   $ 250,000  
Liabilities assumed     532,289  
Total purchase consideration   $ 782,289  
Assets acquired   $ 543,138  
Goodwill     239,151  
    $ 782,289  

 

The total purchase price of $782,289 has been allocated on a preliminary basis to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimated fair values as of the completion of the Acquisition. These allocations reflect various preliminary estimates that are currently available and are subject to change upon the valuation being finalized within the measurement period. The final fair value of Spinus’s identifiable intangible assets will be determined primarily using the income approach which requires an estimate or forecast of all the expected future cash flows, either through the use of the relief-from-royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method. The Company will record amortization expense assuming a straight-line basis over the expected life of the finite lived intangible assets, which approximates expected future cash flows.

 

Goodwill represents the amount by which the estimated consideration transferred exceeds the historical costs of the assets the Company acquired and the liabilities the Company assumed. The Company will not amortize the goodwill, but will instead test the goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events or circumstances have occurred that may indicate a possible impairment.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

 

  F-32  

 

Emerging Growth Companies

 

The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the 2012 JOBS Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As an emerging growth company, the Company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original term of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash and cash equivalent balances may, at certain times, exceed federally insured limits

 

Sales Concentration and credit risk

 

Following is a summary of customers who accounted for more than ten percent (10%) of the Company’s revenues for the years ended December 31, 2018, and 2017, and their accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2018:

 

    Sales % Year Ended December 31, 2018   Sales % Year Ended
December 31, 2017
  Accounts receivable balance December 31, 2018
Customer A     68.5 %     -0-     $ 45,818  
Customer B     31.5 %     69.9 %     —    
Customer C, related party     -0-       30.1 %     —    

 

Accounts Receivable

 


The Company records accounts receivable at the time products and services are delivered. An allowance for losses is established through a provision for losses charged to expenses. Receivables are charged against the allowance for losses when management believes collectability is unlikely. The allowance (if any) is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses on existing receivables, based on evaluation of the collectability of the accounts and prior loss experience.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory, which will consist of finished goods, is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first in first out (FIFO) method. Provision for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory is made based on management analysis or inventory levels and future sales forecasts. The Company has not recorded any loss during the periods presented.

 

  F-33  

 

Purchase concentration

 

The principal purchases by the Company are comprised of finished goods that the Company sells to its customers. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company purchased from one supplier.

 

Management believes that other suppliers could provide similar products on comparable terms. A change in suppliers, however, could cause a delay and a possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect the Company's business, financial position and results of operations.

 

Property, plant and equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, and depreciation is provided by use of a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

The Company reviews property and equipment for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of assets may not be recoverable. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment is as follows:

 

   

December 31,

2018

 

December 31,

2017

Office equipment   $ 9,590     $ 1,944  
Less: Accumulated Depreciation     (2,391 )     (621 )
Property and Equipment, Net   $ 7,199     $ 1,323  

 

Depreciation expense was $1,770 and $621 for the years ended December 31, 2018, and 2017, respectively

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets primarily represent purchased license rights. The Company amortizes these costs over the shorter of the legal life of the patent or its estimated economic life using the straight-line method. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Company has not recognized impairment losses for any long-lived assets. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded amortization expense of $36,458. There was no amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2017. Goodwill is measured as the excess of consideration transferred and the net of the acquisition date fair value of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed in a business acquisition. In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other,” goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer subject to amortization but are tested for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.

 

  F-34  

 

Goodwill

 

The Company reviews the goodwill allocated to each of our reporting units for possible impairment annually as of December 31 and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate carrying amount may not be recoverable. When assessing goodwill for impairment, the Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its’ carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its’ carrying amount, then the Company performs a two-step impairment test. If the Company concludes otherwise, then no further action is taken. The Company also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment and only perform a quantitative assessment, which is the first step of the two-step impairment test. In the two-step impairment test, the Company measures the recoverability of goodwill by comparing a reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill, to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. There were no events or changes in circumstances that indicated potential impairment of intangible assets during 2018 and 2017.

 

 In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company assesses relevant events and circumstances that may impact the fair value and the carrying amount of the reporting unit. The identification of relevant events and circumstances, and how these may impact a reporting unit’s fair value or carrying amount involve significant judgments and assumptions. The judgment and assumptions include the identification of macroeconomic conditions, industry, and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance and share price trends, and making the assessment as to whether each relevant factor will impact the impairment test positively or negatively and the magnitude of any such impact.

 

The carrying amount of each reporting unit is determined based upon the assignment of our assets and liabilities, including existing goodwill and other intangible assets, to the identified reporting units. Where an acquisition benefits only one reporting unit, the Company allocates, as of the acquisition date, all goodwill for that acquisition to the reporting unit that will benefit. Where the Company has had an acquisition that benefited more than one reporting unit, The Company has assigned the goodwill to our reporting units as of the acquisition date such that the goodwill assigned to a reporting unit is the excess of the fair value of the acquired business, or portion thereof, to be included in that reporting unit over the fair value of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed that are assigned to the reporting unit.

 

If the carrying amount of a reporting unit is in excess of its fair value, an impairment may exist, and the Company must perform the second step of the impairment analysis to measure the amount of the impairment loss, by allocating the reporting unit’s fair value to its assets and liabilities other than goodwill, comparing the carrying amount of the goodwill to the resulting implied fair value of the goodwill, and recording an impairment charge for any excess.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales of products by: (1) identify the contract (if any) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract (if any); (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract (if any); and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. For the comparative periods, revenue has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605 — Revenue Recognition. Under ASC 605, revenue is recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the performance of service has been rendered to a customer or delivery has occurred; (3) the amount of fee to be paid by a customer is fixed and determinable; and (4) the collectability of the fee is reasonably assured. The Company has no outstanding contracts with any of is’ customers. Revenues from Spinus of $107,851 are recognized as an agent and are recorded at net. There was no impact on the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting Topic 606 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

Advertising and Marketing Expenses

 

The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2018, and 2017, the Company recorded $43,527 and $19,454 of advertising and marketing expenses, respectively.

 

  F-35  

 

Research and Development

 

Costs and expenses that can be clearly identified as research and development are charged to expense as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $88,572 and $264,563 of research and development expenses, respectively. 

 

Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging Activities.

 

Applicable GAAP requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under other GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

 

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has been determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) as follows: The Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their stated date of redemption.

 

The Company accounts for the conversion of convertible debt when a conversion option has been bifurcated using the general extinguishment standards. The debt and equity linked derivatives are removed at their carrying amounts and the shares issued are measured at their then-current fair value, with any difference recorded as a gain or loss on extinguishment of the two separate accounting liabilities.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level. 

 

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value: 

 

  Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  Level 2 - Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
  Level 3 - Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company's assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

 

  F-36  

 

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, certain notes payable and notes payable - related party, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. 

 

The following table represents the Company’s financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2018, for each fair value hierarchy level:

 

December 31, 2018   Derivative
Liabilities
  Total
Level I   $ —       $ —    
Level II   $ —       $ —    
Level III   $ 1,199,514     $ 1,199,514  

 

Income Taxes

  

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance on deferred tax assets is established when management considers it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Tax benefits from an uncertain tax position are only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as incurred as a component of income tax expense. The Company has not recognized any tax benefits from uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The accounts of the Company's Hong Kong subsidiary are maintained in Hong Kong dollars and the accounts of the U.S. companies are maintained in USD. The accounts of the Hong Kong subsidiary were translated into USD in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters. According to Topic 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date; stockholders' equity is translated at historical rates and statement of comprehensive income items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income. Gains and losses resulting from the foreign currency transactions are reflected in the statements of comprehensive income.

 

Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows for the periods ended December 31, 2018, and 2017 (Hong Kong dollar per one U.S. dollar):

 

   

December 31,

2018

 

December 31,

2017

Balance sheet date     0.1277       0.128  
Average rate for statements of operations and comprehensive loss     0.1276       0.1283  

 

  F-37  

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes and stock warrants, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options, warrants and conversion of convertible notes. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” Under this guidance, an entity is required to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. This guidance offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business” (“ASU 2017-01”). The Amendments in this Update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those periods. Early adoption of this standard is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2018, with no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

  

With the exception of the new standard discussed above, there have been no other recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the year ended December 31, 2018, that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.

 

NOTE 3 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Intangible assets as of December 31, 2018, consists of the following:

 

    December 31, 2018  
Patents and license rights   $ 250,000  
Accumulated amortization     (36,458 )
Net carrying amount   $ 213,542

NOTE 4 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

During the year ended December 31, 2017, OZOP issued 19 convertible promissory notes (the “2017 Notes”), in amounts of $10,000 to $50,000. OZOP received proceeds of $710,000 in the aggregate. Of the 2017 Notes, $50,000 was from the wife of one of our Directors at the time (see Note 7). The 2017 Notes mature(d) on their one- year anniversary and bear interest at ten percent (10%). The initial conversion feature allowed the holders to convert the note and any unpaid interest due, into shares of the Company’s common stock on the 15th business day that the Company becomes listed, at conversion prices equal to discounts of 35%-50% of the average of the three lowest closing prices of the common stock. In August 2018, the Company offered any noteholder to convert their principal and interest into shares of common stock at $0.50 per share. OZOP also issued $25,500 of convertible notes for consulting fees. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued a $50,000 convertible promissory note (the “March 2018 Note”) and received proceeds of $50,000. The Company determined that the conversion feature of the 2017 Notes and the March 2018 Note (together, the “Notes”) did not meet the criteria of an embedded derivative and therefore the conversion feature was not bi-furcated and accounted for as a derivative because the Company was a private company, there was no quoted price and no active market for the Company’s common stock.

 

On April 13, 2018, the Company determined the conversion feature of the Notes represented an embedded derivative since the Notes were convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, on April 13, 2018, the Notes were not considered to be conventional debt under ASC 815 and the embedded conversion feature was bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability. Accordingly, the fair value of the derivative instruments of the Notes that occurred prior to April 13, 2018, were recorded as a liability on April 13, 2018, with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the Note. Such discount is being amortized from the date of issuance to the maturity dates of the Notes. The change in the fair value of the liability for derivative contracts are recorded in other income or expenses in the reporting period, with the offset to the derivative liability on the balance sheet. The embedded feature included in the Notes resulted in an initial debt discount of $620,075, interest expense of $14,000 and initial derivative liability of $634,075. For the year ended December 31, 2018, amortization of the debt discounts of $385,688 was charged to interest expense. During the year ended December 31, 2018, investors converted $570,500 of principal and $19,857 of accrued interest into 1,180,768 shares of common stock. Due to the conversions prior to the maturity of the converted notes, the Company recorded additional interest expense and a loss on extinguishment of debt of $234,386. As of December 31, 2018, the outstanding principal balance of the 2017 Notes was $165,000. The March 2018 Note was part of the above conversions, and the balance of the March 2018 Note as of December 31, 2018 was $-0-.

 

On April 13, 2018, we issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $442,175 (the “Note”), pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement we entered into with an investor dated April 1, 2018. The Note bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum and is due and payable on April 13, 2019. The note is convertible at any time following the funding of the note into a variable number of the Company's common stock, based on a conversion ratio of 55% of the average of the lowest trading price for the 25 days prior to conversion. The note was funded on April 13, 2018, when the Company received proceeds of $350,000, after OID of $57,675, and disbursements for the lender’s transaction costs, fees and expenses of $34,500, of which $25,000 were recorded as discounts against the debt to be amortized into interest expense through maturity. Periodic payments are due by us on the Note at the rate of $850 per day (the “Repayment Amount”) via direct withdrawal from our bank account, beginning on April 27, 2018 and to last for a 30-day period.

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES  

 

On April 13, 2018, the Company determined the conversion feature of the Notes represented an embedded derivative since the Notes were convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, on April 13, 2018, the Notes were not considered to be conventional debt under ASC 815 and the embedded conversion feature was bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability.

 

The Company valued the derivative liabilities at December 31, 2018, and April 13, 2018, at $1,199,514 and $1,450,030, respectively. The Company used the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model with the following assumptions as of December 31, 2018; risk-free interest rates from 2.56% to 2.62% and volatility of 61% to 65%, and the following assumptions at April 13, 2018, risk-free interest rates from 1.06% to 1.28% and volatility of 140% to 260%. The initial derivative liabilities for convertible notes issued during the year ended December 31, 2018, used the following assumptions; risk-free interest rates from 1.89% to 2.71% and volatility of 58% to 81%.

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES

The Company was incorporated in the United States and has operations in two tax jurisdictions - the United States and Hong Kong. The Company’s HK subsidiary is subject to a 16.5% profit tax based on its taxable net profit. The Company’s U.S. operations are subject to income tax according to U.S. tax law.

A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes determined at the U.S. statutory rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate is as follows:

    Year Ended
    December 31,
    2018   2017
Pre-tax loss   $ (2,490,706 )   $ (1,414,050 )
U.S. federal corporate income tax rate     21 %     35 %
Expected U.S. income tax credit     (523,048 )     (494,917 )
Tax rate difference between U.S. and foreign operations     4,715       65,888  
Change of valuation allowance     518,333       429,029  
Effective tax expense   $ —       $ —    

 

The Company had deferred tax assets as follows:

    December 31, 2018  

December 31, 2017

Net operating losses carried forward   $ 569,822     $ 459,854  
Less: Valuation allowance     (569,822 )     (459,854 )
Net deferred tax assets   $ —       $ —    

 

As of December 31, 2018, the Company has approximately $2,202,000 and $588,000 net operating loss carryforwards available in the United States and Hong Kong, respectively, to reduce future taxable income. The net operating loss from Hong Kong operations can be carried forward with no time limit from the year of the initial loss pursuant to relevant Hong Kong tax laws and regulations. For U.S. purposes the NOL deduction for a tax year is equal to the lesser of (1) the aggregate of the NOL carryovers to such year, plus the NOL carry-backs to such year, or (2) 80% of taxable income (determined without regard to the deduction). Generally, NOLs can no longer be carried back but are allowed to be carried forward indefinitely. The special extended carryback provisions are generally repealed, except for certain farming and insurance company losses. The amendments incorporating the 80% limitation apply to losses arising in tax years beginning after Dec. 31, 2017.It is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets cannot be utilized in the future because there will not be significant future earnings from the entity which generated the net operating loss. Therefore, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.

 

As of December 31, 2018, and 2017, the Company has no material unrecognized tax benefits which would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods, and does not believe that there will be any significant increases or decreases of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months. No interest or penalties relating to income tax matters have been imposed on the Company during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and no provision for interest and penalties is deemed necessary as of December 31, 2018, and 2017.

 

The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act) was enacted on December 22, 2017 and introduces significant changes to U.S. income tax law. Effective in 2018, the Tax Act reduces the U.S. statutory tax rate from 35% to 21% and creates new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings and certain related-party payments, which are referred to as the global intangible low-taxed income tax and the base erosion tax, respectively. The Tax Act requires the Company to pay U.S. income taxes on accumulated foreign subsidiary earnings not previously subject to U.S. income tax at a rate of 15.5% to the extent of foreign cash and certain other net current assets and 8% on the remaining earnings. Due to the timing of the enactment and the complexity involved in applying the provisions of the Tax Act, the Company has not recorded any adjustments according to Tax Act. As the Company collects and prepares necessary data, and interprets the Tax Act and any additional guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, the IRS, and other standard-setting bodies, the Company may make adjustments to the provisional amounts. The accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act will be completed in 2018.

 

  F-44  

 

Since the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have not generated income since inception, the Company believes that Tax Act will not have significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 12 – GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At December 31, 2018, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $2,348,360 and a working capital deficit of $2,808,252. In addition, the Company has generated losses since inception. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

Management’s Plans

 

In April 2018, OZOP entered into and completed a share exchange agreement with the Company (see Note 1), a publicly traded company. As a public company, management believes it will be able to access the public equities market for fund raising for product development and regulatory approvals, sales and marketing and as we expand our distribution in the US market, we will need to meet increasing inventory requirements.

 

The Company is currently offering through a Private Placement Memorandum (the “PPM”) a minimum of $50,000 and up to $3,000,000 of up to 6,000,000 units (a “Unit”), for a price of $0.50 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”) with each Unit consisting of one (1) share of Common Stock and a warrant (a “Warrant”) to purchase one (1) share of Common Stock, with each Warrant having a three year term and an exercise price of $1.00 per share of Common Stock.

Pursuant to Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, we have the power to indemnify any person made a party to any lawsuit by reason of being a director or officer of the Registrant, or serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Our Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.

 

With regard to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 17. Undertakings

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes

 

  1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

  i. To include any Prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

  ii.

To reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

  iii. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

  2.

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

  3. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

  4. That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

  i.

Any Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

  ii. Any free writing Prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

  iii.

The portion of any other free writing Prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

  iv. Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

  5.   That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser: Each Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than Prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or Prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or Prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or Prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the corporation in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by a controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such case.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized on September 19, 2019.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-1
Ozop Surgical Corp., a Nevada corporation

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel for Ozop Surgical Corp. (the “Company”) in connection with the registration of 13,300,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Offering Shares”) to be issued to GHS Investments, LLC on the terms and conditions set forth in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 being filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”).

 

In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have assumed, with your permission and without independent verification or investigation:

 

1.  That all signatures on documents we have examined in connection herewith are genuine and that all items submitted to us as original are authentic and all items submitted to us as copies conform with originals;

 

2.  Except for the documents stated herein, there are no documents or agreements between the Company and/or any third parties which would expand or otherwise modify the respective rights and obligations of the parties as set forth in the documents referred to herein or which would have an effect on the opinion;

 

3.  That as to all factual matters, each of the representations and warranties contained in the documents referred to herein is true, accurate and complete in all material respects, and the opinion expressed herein is given in reliance thereon.

 

We have examined the Registration Statement and various other documents, books, records, instruments and certificates of public officials, directors, executive officers and agents of the Company, and have made such investigations as we have deemed reasonable, necessary or prudent under the circumstances.  Also, in rendering this opinion, we have reviewed various statutes and judicial precedent as we have deemed relevant or necessary.

 

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

 

1.  The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Nevada.

 

2.  The Offering Shares covered by the Registration Statement to be sold pursuant to the terms of the Registration Statement, when issued upon receipt by the Company of the agreed-upon consideration therefore, will be duly authorized, and, upon the sale thereof as contemplated in the Registration Statement, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

The opinions set forth above are subject to the following exceptions, limitations and qualifications:  (i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors; (ii) the effect of general principles of equity, whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought; and (iii) the unenforceability under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions providing for the indemnification of or contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update our opinions herein, regardless of whether changes in such facts or laws come to our attention after the date hereof.

  

We hereby consent to be named in the Prospectus forming Part I of the aforesaid Registration Statement under the caption, “Interests of Named Experts and Counsel,” and the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In providing this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder, including Item 509 of Regulation S-K.

 

Very truly yours,

 

/s/ Brunson Chandler & Jones, PLLC
