In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements as reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021 have been omitted. Reclassification Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current period financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net loss. Principles of Consolidation The Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts, balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The Company has two wholly owned international subsidiaries in NuZee KOREA Ltd. (“NuZee KR”) and NuZee Investment Co., Ltd. (“NuZee INV”). Earnings per Share Basic earnings per common share is equal to net earnings or loss divided by the weighted average of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. As of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the total number of common stock equivalents was 8,766,493 2,314,053 Capital Resources Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring operating assets, raising capital, and the commercialization and manufacture of its single serve coffee products. The Company has generated limited revenues from its principal operations, and there is no assurance of future revenues. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $ 10,967,104 Major Customers In the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, revenue was primarily derived from major customers disclosed below.

The Company implemented ASU No. 2016-02 on October 1, 2019. The Company performs a quarterly analysis of leases to determine if there are any operating leases that require recognition under ASC 842. The Company has one significant long-term operating lease for office and manufacturing space in Plano, Texas. The leased property in Plano, Texas, has a remaining lease term through June 2024. The lease has an option to extend beyond the stated termination date, but exercise of this option is not probable. The Company did not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to operating leases with a remaining lease term of 12 months or less. During our analysis of leases in the three months ended December 31, 2021, we determined to renew the office and manufacturing space in Vista, California which was originally scheduled to expire on January 31, 2022 8,451 We extended our sub-leased property in Vista, California, through January 31, 2023, which has been calculated as a ROU Asset co-terminus with the direct-leased property. The Seoul, Korea office and manufacturing space lease was extended through June 2022 and there is an apartment leased through June 2022.

The terms of this agreement require us to pay $ 2,987 per month through July 2024. As part of this agreement, Alliance Funding Group provided our equipment supplier with $ 124,500 for the purchase of this equipment. This transaction was accounted for as a financing lease. As of December 31, 2021, our financing lease had a remaining lease term of 2.5 years and a discount rate of 12.75 %. The interest expense on finance lease liabilities for the three months ended December 31, 2021 was $ 2,437 .

The outstanding balance on the loan at December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021 amounted to $ 18,506 and $ 20,416 , respectively. On February 15, 2019, NuZee KR entered into equipment financing for production equipment with Shin Han Bank for $ 60,563 .

The new standard’s core principle is that an entity will recognize revenue at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The principles in the standard are applied in five steps: 1) Identify the contract(s) with a customer; 2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) Determine the transaction price; 4) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and 5) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. We adopted Topic 606 as of October 1, 2018, on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption of Topic 606 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, including the presentation of revenues in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Foreign Currency Translation The financial position and results of operations of each of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are measured using the foreign subsidiary’s local currency as the functional currency. Revenues and expenses of each such subsidiary have been translated into U.S. dollars at average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Assets and liabilities have been translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date. The resulting translation gain and loss adjustments are recorded directly as a separate component of stockholders’ equity unless there is a sale or complete liquidation of the underlying foreign investment. Foreign currency translation adjustments recorded to other comprehensive gain amounted to $ 32,688 1,656 Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. Inventories Inventory, consisting principally of raw materials, work in process and finished goods held for production and sale, is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined using the weighted average cost method. The Company reviews inventory levels at least quarterly and records a valuation allowance when appropriate. At December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, the carrying value of inventory was $ 384,198 573,464 SCHEDULE OF INVENTORY December 31, 2021 September 30, 2021 Raw materials $ 366,639 $ 552,621 Finished goods 17,559 20,843 Less – Inventory reserve - - Total $ 384,198 $ 573,464 Joint Venture On January 9, 2020, a joint venture agreement was signed between Industrial Marino, S.A. de C.V.
