NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Description of Operations
Sharing Services Global Corporation (“Sharing Services,” “SHRG”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) aim to build shareholder value by developing or investing in innovative emerging businesses and technologies that augment the Company’s products and services portfolio, business competencies, and geographic reach. The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada in April 2015. The Company’s main business activities include:
Sale of Health and Wellness Products - The Company markets its health and wellness products primarily through an independent sales force, using a direct selling business model under the proprietary brand “The Happy Co.” Currently, The Happy Co. TM markets and distributes its health and wellness products primarily in the United States (the “U.S.”) and Canada.
Sale of Member-Based Travel Services - Through its subsidiary, Hapi Travel Destinations, the Company established a subscription-based travel services business under the proprietary brand MyTravelVentures (“MTV”) in May 2022. MTV provides entrepreneurial opportunities to its subscribers by capitalizing on both the direct selling model and the retail travel business model. The MTV services are designed to offer discount for travel relating to airfare, cruises, hotels, resorts, time shares and rental cars for destinations throughout the world for people of all ages, demographics, and economic backgrounds.
In August 2021, Sharing Services and Hapi Café, Inc, a company affiliated with Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, a Director of the Company, entered into a Master Franchise Agreement (the “MFA”) pursuant to which Sharing Services acquired the exclusive franchise rights in North America to the brand “Hapi Café.” Under the terms of the MFA, Sharing Services, directly or through its subsidiaries, has the right to operate no less than five corporate-owned stores and can offer to the public sub-franchise rights to own and operate other stores, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the MFA. The Company plans to open up Hapi Café in Dallas and other major cities in North America, and is in the process of identifying and evaluating suitable locations.
Directly or through its subsidiaries, the Company from time to time will invest in emerging business in the direct selling industry, using a combination of debt and equity financing, in efforts to leverage the Company’s business competencies and to participate in the growth of these businesses. As part of the Company’s commitment to the success of these emerging businesses, the Company, directly or through its subsidiaries, also plans to offer shared services, such as merchant processing, insurance, order fulfillment and logistics, and other “back office” solutions that are success-critical to these businesses in the direct sales industry.
NOTE 2- GOING CONCERN
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 have been prepared using generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. During the nine months
ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had a net loss was approximately $
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking third party equity and/or debt financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. Unless so stated, the disclosures in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not repeal the disclosures in our consolidated financial statements for year ended March 31, 2023.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period financial information has been reclassified to conform with the current year’s presentation.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of judgment and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, if any. Matters that require the use of estimates and assumptions include, among others: the recoverability of accounts and notes receivable, the valuation of inventory, the useful lives of fixed assets, the assessment of long-lived assets for impairment, the nature and timing of satisfaction of multiple performance obligations resulting from contracts with customers, the allocation of the transaction price to multiple performance obligations in a sales transaction, the measurement and recognition of right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities, the valuation of share-based compensation awards, the provision for income taxes, the measurement and recognition of uncertain tax positions, the valuation of long-term debt covenants, and the valuation of loss contingencies, if any. Actual results may differ from these estimates in amounts that may be material to our consolidated financial statements. We believe that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are reasonable.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash
equivalents include recent customer remittances deposited with our merchant processors at the balance sheet date, which generally settle
within 24 to 72 hours. As of December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents included cash held by our merchant processors
of approximately $
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable consists mainly of amounts due from a merchant processor in the normal course of business. To measure impairment on accounts receivables, the Company adopted current expected credit losses (CECL) model, which is established on management’s historical collection experience, age of the receivable, the economic environment, industry trend analysis, and the current credit profile and financial condition of the merchant processor. On a quarterly basis, management reviews its receivables to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate and adjusts the allowance, including the base loss rate and adjustment factors, when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after all means of collection have been exhausted and that the likelihood of collection is not probable.
Inventory
Inventory
consists of finished goods and promotional materials and are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”)
method, or net realizable value. The Company periodically assesses its inventory levels when compared to current and anticipated sales
levels. As of December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023, the allowance for obsolete inventory was $
| 10 |
Other Receivable and Loan Payable
In
July 2023, the Company, through its out-sourced payroll services provider (“Paychex”), submitted a claim to the Internal
Revenue Services (“IRS”) for the Employee Retention Tax Credit (“ERTC credit”) based on its payroll records and
other pertinent information. Refunds will be distributed based on IRS processing times and the total ERTC credit will be approximately
$
Through
the introduction of Paychex, the Company successfully applied for an ERTC loan (“bridge loan”) in August 2023. The bridge
loan that was approved came to $
Other Assets
Other
assets include a multi-user license and code of a back-office platform that was acquired for $
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of each of our foreign operations is generally the respective local currency. Balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars (our reporting currency) at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, while the results of operations and cash flows are generally translated using average exchange rates for the periods presented. Individual material transactions, if any, are translated using the actual rate of exchange on the transaction date. The resulting translation adjustments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In September 2021, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, commenced operations in the Republic of Korea (South Korea).

Comprehensive Loss
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s comprehensive loss comprised of currency translation adjustments and net loss.
Revenue Recognition
As
of December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023, deferred sales revenue associated with products invoiced but not received by customers at the
balance sheet date was $
During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, substantially all our consolidated net sales were from our health and wellness products.
Sales Commissions
The
Company recognizes sales commission expenses, when incurred, in accordance with GAAP. During the three months ended December 31, 2023
and 2022, sales commission expense, which is included in selling and marketing expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations
and comprehensive loss, was approximately $
Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Pending Adoption
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), which simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments. Among other things, under ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion features no longer must be separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features not required to be accounted for as derivatives, or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also eliminates the use of the treasury stock method when calculating the impact of convertible instruments on diluted Earnings per Share. For the Company, the provisions of ASU 2020-06 are effective for its fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, subject to certain limitations. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.
| 12 |
We calculate basic loss per share by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated similarly but reflects the potential impact of shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of outstanding convertible preferred stock, convertible notes payable, if any, stock warrants and other commitments to issue common stock, except where the impact would be anti-dilutive.

insurance and other operational expenses primarily consist of payments for goods and services (such as freight, trade show expenses
and insurance premiums) which are expected to be realized in the next operating cycle. Prepaid interest represents interest on the
2022 Note due to Decentralized Sharing Systems, Inc. (“DSSI”) (see NOTE 14 below) for the period from July 1, 2023 inclusive to
December 31, 2023. Right to recover assets is associated with our customers’ right of return and is expected to be realized in
one year or less. As of December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023, the provision for losses in connection with certain inventory-related

On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the recoverability of its investments and reviews current economic trends to determine the adequacy of its allowance for impairment losses based on each investee financial performance data and other relevant information. An estimate for impairment losses is recognized when recovery in full of the Company’s investment is no longer probable. Investment balances are written off against the allowance after the potential for recovery is considered remote.

NOTE 17 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters in General
The Company has incurred several claims in the normal course of business. The Company believes such claims can be resolved without any material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
The Company maintains certain liability insurance. However, certain costs of defending lawsuits are not covered by or only partially covered by its insurance policies, including claims that are below insurance deductibles. Additionally, insurance carriers could refuse to cover certain claims, in whole or in part. The Company accrues costs to defend itself from litigation as they are incurred.
The outcome of litigation is uncertain, and despite management’s view of the merits of any litigation, or the reasonableness of the Company’s estimates and reserves, the Company’s financial statements could nonetheless be materially affected by an adverse judgment. The Company believes it has adequately reserved for the contingencies arising from current legal matters where an outcome was deemed to be probable, and the loss amount could be reasonably estimated. No provision for legal matters was deemed necessary as of December 31, 2023.
Legal Proceedings
The Company from time to time is involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of its business in the ordinary course. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On December 11, 2020, three investors in Four Oceans Global, LLC filed a lawsuit against the Company, its affiliated entities, and other persons and entities related to an investment made by the three Plaintiffs in 2015. The Company and its affiliated entities filed an answer denying the three investors’ claims. Plaintiffs filed a First Amended Complaint on October 14, 2021. The Company and its affiliated entities responded in November 2021 by filing a Motion to Dismiss the claims contained in the Amended Complaint. The Motion was granted on July 20, 2022, by Court Order dismissing with prejudice the Company and all affiliated entities from the lawsuit. In early August 2022, Plaintiffs on their own motion moved to dismiss all claims against the remaining parties in the case to enable the Order of Dismissal to become an appealable, final Order. On September 7, 2022, Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The Plaintiffs filed their Proposed Sufficient Brief of Appellants with the Fifth Circuit on January 2, 2023. The Company filed a Response Brief on February 22, 2023.

Overview
Summary Description of Business
Sharing Services Global Corporation and subsidiaries (“Sharing Services”, “we,” or the “Company”) aim to build shareholder value by developing or acquiring businesses and technologies that increase the Company’s product and services portfolio, business competencies, and geographic reach.
Currently, the Company, through its subsidiaries, markets and distributes its health and wellness and other products primarily in the U.S. and Canada using a direct selling business model. In addition, the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries market our products and services through an independent sales force, using their proprietary websites, including: www.thehappyco.com.
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 24, 2015.
As further discussed below, the Company intends to continue to grow its business both organically and by making strategic acquisitions from time to time of businesses and technologies that augment its product portfolio, complement its business competencies, and fit its growth strategy.
Financing Arrangements
Historically, the Company has funded a substantial portion of its liquidity and cash needs through the issuance of notes or convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements, and issuance of equity securities. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for additional information about the Company’s convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements.
Industry and Business Trends
The information in “Industry and Business Trends” included in ITEM 1 — “Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, is incorporated herein by reference.
Strategic Profitable Growth Initiatives
The Company intends to grow its business by pursuing a multipronged growth strategy, that includes: (a) expanding its product offerings, both within the health and wellness category and in new product categories, (b) expanding its direct-to-consumer geographic footprint and (c) re-vamping and re-launching its previously announced membership-based consumer travel products line worldwide.

Results of Operations
The Three months ended December 31, 2023, Compared to the Three months ended December 31, 2022
Net Sales
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated net sales decreased by $0.4 million, or 11.1%, to $2.9 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in net sales mainly reflects: (a) the decline in orders from independent distributors and customers; (b) the decline in the number of independent distributors, resulting, in part, from recent product reformulations and increased competition for independent distributors, and (c) the generally adverse impact on consumer buying trends resulting from the recent increase in consumer good prices and in energy costs in the U.S.
The $0.4 million decrease in consolidated net sales primarily reflects a decrease in the number of comparable product units sold.
During the three months ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company derived substantially all its consolidated net sales from the sale of its health and wellness products.
Gross Profit
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated gross profit increased by approximately $0.6 million, to $2.2 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022; and our consolidated gross margin was 75.7% and 49.4%, respectively. The improvement in gross margin was attributed mainly to efforts to reduce our cost of goods sold and our shipping expenses in the three months ended December 31, 2023.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated selling and marketing expenses increased by $19,982, to $0.9 million, or 32.9% of consolidated net sales, compared to $0.9 million, or 28.6% of consolidated net sales, for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The $19,982 increase in consolidated selling and marketing expenses is due primarily to higher marketing efforts in the three months ended December 31, 2023.
General and Administrative Expenses
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated general and administrative expenses (which include corporate employee compensation and benefits, stock-based compensation, professional fees, rent and other occupancy costs, certain consulting fees, telephone and information technology expenses, insurance premiums, and other administrative expenses) decreased by approximately $2.7 million, to $2.0 million, The $2.7 million decrease was primarily due to lower consulting expense of approximately $1.8 million, and lower employee compensation and compensation-related benefits of $0.6 million due to less headcount year over year.
Interest Expense, Net
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated interest expense was $137,362.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, our consolidated interest expense, net was 3.3 million, including amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs, interest income, and other expenses associated with borrowings from “DSSI” and related parties.

Nine months ended December 31, 2023, Compared to the Nine months ended December 31, 2022
Net Sales
For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated net sales decreased by approximately $4.6 million, or 35.8%, to $8.2 million, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in net sales mainly reflects: (a) the decline in consumer orders and independent distributor orders; (b) the decline in the number of independent distributors resulting, in part, from recent product reformulations and increased competition for independent distributors, and (c) the generally adverse impact on consumer buying trends resulting from the recent increase in consumer good prices and in energy costs in the U.S.
In an effort to stabilize our sales level, we have further intensified our efforts to recruit and develop our distributors and drive product sales to new consumers, including through the continued introduction of new products.
The $4.6 million decrease in consolidated net sales primarily reflects a decrease in the number of comparable product units sold.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company derived substantially all its consolidated net sales from the sale of its Elevate health and wellness products.
| 31 |
Gross Profit
For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated gross profit decreased by approximately $1.7 million, or 22.4%, to $6.0 million, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2022: our consolidated gross margin was 72.9% and 60.3%, respectively. The improvement in gross margin is due primarily to our efforts to reduce cost of goods sold and shipping costs.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated selling and marketing expenses decreased by approximately $2.6 million, to $3.1 million, or 38.1% of net sales compared to $5.7 million, or 44.9% of net sales for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease is due primarily to lower sales commissions of $1.9 million (which reflects decrease in our consolidated net sales discussed above) and lower sales convention expenses of $0.7 million.
General and Administrative Expenses
For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, our consolidated general and administrative expenses (which include corporate employee compensation and benefits, stock-based compensation, professional fees, rent and other occupancy costs, certain consulting fees, telephone and information technology expenses, insurance premiums, and other administrative expenses) decreased by approximately $7.4 million to $6.4 million, compared to $13.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by lower professional and legal expenses by $4.9 million, decrease in employee compensation and related benefits by $1.8 million as a result of headcount reduction. In January 2022, the Company entered into a one-year Business Consulting Agreement with DSS. On the effective date of the Consulting Agreement, the closing price of the Company’s common stock was $0.07 per share and the fair value of the Stock Warrant was $3.5 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We broadly define liquidity as our ability to generate sufficient cash, from internal and external sources, to meet our obligations and commitments. We believe that, for this purpose, liquidity cannot be considered separately from capital resources.
Working Capital
Working capital (total current assets minus total current liabilities). We had a deficiency in our working capital of approximately $2.7 million as of December 31, 2023, compared to $33.9 million as of March 31, 2023.
As of December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents were $0.7 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated investments necessary to grow our business, we believe that anticipated funds from operations will likely be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements over the next 12 months.
| 33 |
We have implemented measures to streamline and revamp our business operations and reduce our monthly cash burns and operating loss. Such measures include, and are not limited to, headcount reduction and elimination of certain overhead and consulting fees. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated investments necessary to sustain/grow our business, we believe that existing cash balances and anticipated funds from operations will likely be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements over the next 12 months.
Historical Cash Flows
Historically, our primary sources of cash have been capital transactions involving the issuance of equity securities and secured and unsecured debt (See “Short-term Borrowings and Convertible Notes” below) and cash flows from operating activities; and our primary uses of cash have been for operating activities, capital expenditures, acquisitions, net cash advances to related parties, and debt repayments in the ordinary course of our business.
The following table summarizes our cash flow activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2022:

Accounting Changes and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For discussion of accounting changes and recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
The Company is a Smaller Reporting Company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and, accordingly, is not required to provide the information called for by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the fiscal period covered by this Quarterly Report, and concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management and its Board of Directors, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
| 35 |
Limitations on the Company’s Controls and Procedures. We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. Any system of controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud (if any) within the Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of controls and procedures, misstatements and/or omissions due to error or fraud may occur undetected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During our most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
