Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization Maryzime, Inc. (the “Company” or “Marizyme”) is a Nevada corporation originally incorporated on March 20, 2007, under the name SWAV Enterprises, Ltd. On September 6, 2010, the Company name was changed to GBS Enterprises Inc. and from 2010 to September 2018 the Company was in the software products and advisory services business for email and instant messaging applications. The Company divested that business between December 2016 and September 2018 and focused on the acquisition of life science technologies. On March 21, 2018, the Company’s name was changed to Marizyme, Inc., to reflect the new life sciences focus. Marizyme’s common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB tier of OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “MRZM”. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Somahlution, Inc. (“Somahlution”), Somaceutica, Inc. (“Somaceutica”), Marizyme Sciences, Inc. (“Marizyme Sciences”), and My Health Logic, Inc. (“My Health Logic”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. Going Concern The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using GAAP as applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company does not have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The Company, since its inception, has incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $ 85,989,433 966,464 510,865 Under the going concern assumption, an entity is ordinarily viewed as continuing its business for the foreseeable future with neither the intention or necessity of liquidation, ceasing trading, or seeking protection from creditors pursuant to the laws and regulations. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are recorded on the basis that the entity will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to continue to successfully develop its intangible assets, receive an approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to extend the selling of the products into the U.S. market which may result in the Company attaining profitable operations. During the next twelve months from the date the consolidated financial statements were issued, the Company’s foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continuous operations of its business, maintaining its good standing and making the required filing with the SEC, and the payment of expenses associated with its product development. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a private or public offering. On February 14, 2021, Marizyme completed a preliminary prospectus with intention to raise up to $ 17,250,000 9,600,000 The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make use of certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates are related to the allocation of the purchase price in a business combination to the underlying assets and liabilities, recoverability of long-term assets including intangible assets and goodwill, amortization expense, valuation of warrants, stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities, contingent liabilities, and deferred tax valuations. Fair Value Measurements The Company uses the fair value hierarchy to measure the value of its financial instruments. The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing based upon its own market assumptions. The basis for fair value measurements for each level within the hierarchy is described below: ● Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. ● Level 2 – Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other model-derived valuations whose inputs are directly or indirectly observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. ● Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable and for which assumptions are used based on management estimates. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. The carrying amounts of certain cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, notes payable, and amounts due to related parties approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of lease obligations is determined using discounted cash flows based on the expected amounts and timing of the cash flows discounted using a market rate of interest adjusted for appropriate credit risk. The contingent liabilities assumed on the acquisition of Somahlution consist of present values of royalty payments, performance warrants and pediatric voucher warrants, future rare pediatric voucher sales, and liquidation preference. Management measured these contingencies in accordance with Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. i. The performance warrants and pediatric vouchers warrants liabilities were valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model utilizing the following weighted average assumptions: risk free rate of 1.19 69.62 0 6.21 2,925,000 1,427,000 4,352,000 ii. The present value of royalty payments was measured using the scenario-based methodology. In assessing the value attributed to the royalty payments, the estimated future cash flows were discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the revenue from net sales of the product. The cash flows derived from the Company’s fifteen-year strategic plan are based on managements’ expectations of market growth, industry reports and trends, and past performances. These projections are inherently uncertain due to the evolving impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The discounted cash flow model included projections surrounding revenue, discount rates, and growth rates. The discount rates used to calculate the present value of royalty payments reflect specific risks of the Company and market conditions and the mid-range was estimated at 20.6 1,414,000 5,402,000 3,988,000 iii. Rare pediatric voucher sales liability was valued based on the scenario-based methodology where the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset – 20.6 95,000 1,055,000 1,150,000 iv. The present value of liquidation preference liability, included in the contingent consideration, was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing method and represents the fair value of the maximum payment amount according to the Agreement. The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model: risk free rate of 0.21 78.93 0 5 years No 1,823,000 The derivative liabilities consisted of optional and automatic conversion features and the share redemption feature attached to the convertible notes, issued pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement (see Note 7). The Company has no financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis. None of the Company’s non-financial assets or liabilities are recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. No transfers between levels have occurred during the periods presented. Marizyme measures the following financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the fair values of these financial instruments were as follows: Schedule of Fair Values of Financial Instruments December 31, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value Hierarchy December 31, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Liabilities Derivative liabilities $ - $ - $ 4,823,725 Contingent liabilities - - 9,707,000 Total $ - $ - $ 14,530,725 December 31, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Fair Value Hierarchy December 31, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Liabilities Derivative liabilities $ - $ - $ 2,485,346 Contingent liabilities - - 11,313,000 Total $ - $ - $ 13,798,346 The following table provides a roll forward of all liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 significant unobservable inputs: Schedule of Liabilities Fair Value Measured Derivative and Contingent Liabilities Balance at December 31, 2021 $ 13,798,346 Change in fair value of contingent liabilities (1,606,000 ) Derivative liabilities issued pursuant to Unit Purchase Agreement 2,338,379 Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 14,530,725 Cash Cash includes cash in readily available checking accounts. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company has significant cash balances at financial institutions which throughout the year regularly exceed the federally insured limit of $ 250,000 Inventory Inventory consisted of primarily finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first out method. The Company decreases the value of inventory for estimated obsolescence equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value, based upon an aging analysis of the inventory on hand, specifically known inventory-related risks, and assumptions about future demand and market conditions. The Company has determined that no inventory reserve was necessary as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Accounts Receivable Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold in the ordinary course of business. Accounts receivable are non-interest bearing and are due for settlement in full within 30 days. Trade receivables are shown net of allowance for bad or doubtful debts. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure trade and other receivables are not overstated due to non-collectability. The Company’s allowance is based on a variety of factors, including age of the receivable, significant one-time events, historical experience, and other risk considerations. The Company did not have an allowance at December 31, 2022 or 2021. The Company did not record any bad debt expense in each of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recognized using the straight-line method over the useful life of the asset. Machinery, computer equipment and related software are depreciated over five to seven years. Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over four seven years Intangible Assets and Goodwill Intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets acquired as a result of an acquisition or in a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the estimated useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimates being accounted for on a prospective basis. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid for the acquisition of subsidiaries over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Following the initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. In-Process Research and Development The Company evaluates whether acquired intangible assets are a business under applicable accounting standards. Additionally, the Company evaluates whether the acquired assets have a future alternative use. Intangible assets that do not have future alternative use are considered acquired in-process research and development (“IPR&D”). When the acquired in-process research and development assets are not part of a business combination, the value of the consideration paid is expensed on the acquisition date. Future costs to develop these assets are recorded to research and development expense as they are incurred. Impairment ● Impairment of long-lived assets: ● Goodwill ● In-process research and development assets: Leases At the inception of a contractual arrangement, the Company determines whether the contract contains a lease by assessing whether there is an identified asset and whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset in exchange for consideration over a period of time. If both criteria are met, the Company records the associated lease liability and corresponding right-of-use asset upon commencement of the lease using the implicit rate or a discount rate based on a credit-adjusted secured borrowing rate commensurate with the term of the lease. The Company additionally evaluates leases at their inception to determine if they are to be accounted for as an operating lease or a finance lease. A lease is accounted for as a finance lease if it meets one of the following five criteria: the lease has a purchase option that is reasonably certain of being exercised, the present value of the future cash flows is substantially all of the fair market value of the underlying asset, the lease term is for a significant portion of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset, the title to the underlying asset transfers at the end of the lease term, or if the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative uses to the lessor at the end of the term. Leases that do not meet the finance lease criteria are accounted for as an operating lease. Operating lease assets represent a right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease liabilities with a term greater than one year and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recognized on the balance sheet at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as initial direct costs paid or incentives received. As the Company’s leases do not typically provide an implicit rate, the Company utilizes the appropriate incremental borrowing rate, determined as the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term and in a similar economic environment. Lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments are recognized as operating expenses in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Variable lease payments primarily include common area maintenance, utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating costs that are passed on from the lessor in proportion to the space leased by the Company. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate between lease and non-lease components. Revenue Recognition Pursuant to Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, Topic 606 outlines a five-step process for recognizing revenue from customer contracts that includes i) identification of the contract with a customer, ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract, iii) determining the transaction price, iv) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations in the contract, and v) recognizing revenue associated with performance obligations as they are satisfied. At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct and determine those that are performance obligations. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company has identified one performance obligation which is related to DuraGraft product sales. For the Company’s distribution partner channel, the Company recognizes revenue for product sales at the time of delivery of the product to its distribution partner (customer). As products have an expiration date, if a product expires, the Company will replace the product at no charge. There were no significant judgements made in applying this topic. Direct Cost of Revenue Cost of sales includes the actual cost of merchandise sold, and the cost of transportation of merchandise from the Company’s third-party vendor to its distributer. Research and Development Expenses and Accruals All research and development costs are expensed in the period incurred and consist primarily of salaries, payroll taxes, and employee benefits, those individuals involved in research and development efforts, external research and development costs incurred under agreements with contract research organizations and consultants to conduct and support the Company’s ongoing clinical trials of DuraGraft, and costs related to manufacturing DuraGraft for clinical trials. The Company has entered into various research and development contracts with various organizations and other companies. Payments of these activities are based on the terms of the individual agreements which matches to the pattern of costs incurred. Payments made in advances are reflected in the accompanying balance sheets as prepaid expenses. The Company records accruals for estimated costs incurred for ongoing research and development activities. When evaluating the adequacy of the accrued liabilities, the Company analyzes progress of the services, including the phase or completion of events, invoices received and contracted costs. Significant judgments and estimates may be made in determining the prepaid or accrued balances at the end of any reporting period. Actual results could differ from the Company’s estimates. Stock-Based Compensation Share-based compensation expense for employees and directors is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations based on estimated amounts, including the grant date fair value and the expected service period. For stock options, the Company estimates the grant date fair value using a Black-Scholes valuation model, which requires the use of multiple subjective inputs including estimated future volatility, expected forfeitures and the expected term of the awards. The Company estimates the expected future volatility based on the stock’s historical price volatility. The stock’s future volatility may differ from the estimated volatility at the grant date. For restricted stock unit (“RSU”) equity awards, the Company estimates the grant date fair value using its closing stock price on the date of grant. The Company recognizes the effect of forfeitures in compensation expense when the forfeitures occur. The estimated forfeiture rates may differ from actual forfeiture rates which would affect the amount of expense recognized during the period. The Company recognizes the value of the awards over the awards’ requisite service or performance periods. The requisite service period is generally the time over which the Company’s share-based awards vest. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the consolidated financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company recognizes net deferred tax assets to the extent that the Company believes these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, management considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If management determines that the Company would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, management would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. The Company records uncertain tax positions on the basis of a two-step process whereby (i) management determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (ii) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, management recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within income tax expense. Any accrued interest and penalties are included within the related tax liability. There was no interest or penalties as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Segment Reporting Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company views its operations and manages its business as one Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock and if-converted methods. Dilutive common stock equivalents are comprised of unvested common stock, options and warrants. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding as inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities (warrants, stock options, and common shares subject to repurchase) would be antidilutive. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements The Company assesses the adoption impacts of recently issued accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as well as material updates to previous assessments. There were no new material accounting standards issued or adopted in year of 2022 that impacted the Company. |
