Revenues decreased by $7,438,488 or 34% to $14,444,957 compared with revenue of $21,883,445 in the same period last year. The revenue decline was primarily the result of lower recommerce revenue through both Amazon channels and wholesale. Management made a decision to discontinue sales of electronic products in its Amazon channels after analyzing the high rate of returned products, lower margins after thirty to sixty days and the low liquidation value of Amazon returns. Branded Product sales increased slightly with increases in both the pet care products, children’s toy product and other branded products that are not heavily reliant on the Amazon sales channel. Management is focused on restructuring the Company to have more consistent sales from both product sales revenue and adding service revenue.

Cost of revenue decreased by $2,743,864 or 19% to $11,561,834 compared with cost of revenue of $14,305,698 in the same period last year. The cost of revenue decline was primarily related to the lower recommerce revenue. Gross profit decreased by approximately $1.7 million compared to the same period in the previous form significant write offs of inventory that was obsolete or unsellable. These products that were written off were primarily related to the recommerce business with many of them being Amazon returns or bulk products that could no longer be sold.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $711,776 or 32% compared with the same period in the prior year. The decreased in sales and marketing expenses was primarily related to management’s efforts to refine sales strategies to focus on long-term recurring sales growth through subscription revenue and sales channel expansion. Management will continue to manage the sales and marketing expenses on branded product sales and expects the overall sales and marketing to revenue to decrease and improve profitability.

Distribution costs decreased $60,739 or 3% compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease in distribution costs was not related to sales and is expected to decrease overall as management has completed the consolidation of facilities and the distribution network at the end of June 2024.

General and administrative expenses decreased by $202,925 or 8% compared with the same period in the prior year. With the consolidation of facilities and ongoing adjustments for the sale of VitaMedica, Infusionz and Interactive Offers, management has managed the general and administrative costs and will continue to implement strategies to decrease the percentage of general and administrative costs when compared to total sales.

Other operating expenses decreased by $915,001 or 37% compared with the same period in the prior year. These expenses are primarily non-cash expenses and have decreased based on the decreased amortization of stock compensation and offset by increases in depreciation.

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 4,412 characters.

### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of March 31, 2024 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to us required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. This conclusion is based on findings that constituted material weaknesses. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

In performing the above-referenced assessment, our management identified the following material weaknesses:

(i) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and

(ii) lack of multiple levels of supervision and review.

We believe the weaknesses and their related risks are not uncommon in a company of our size because of the limitations in the size and number of staff. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties has not always been possible and may not be economically feasible. However, we plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the appointment of additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and implement modifications to our financial controls to address such inadequacies, by the end of our 2024 fiscal year as resources allow.

We are currently reviewing our disclosure controls and procedures related to these material weaknesses and expect to implement changes in the current fiscal year, including identifying specific areas within our governance, accounting, and financial reporting processes to add adequate resources to potentially mitigate these material weaknesses.

Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

### Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 12a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. The Company has added significant qualified resources to ensure proper segregation of duties and proper review of the financial reporting policies and procedures.
