PART C – BUSINESS INFORMATION
8) Description of Issuer’s business operations:
HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is an online pharmacy, licensed
and/or authorized to sell and deliver prescriptions in all 50 United States and the District of Columbia focusing
on the out-of-pocket prescription drug market, a market which is expected to continue to grow. The Company
sells directly to individual consumers who purchase prescription medications and over-the-counter (“OTC”)
products over the Internet. HealthWarehouse.com is currently 1 of 85 National Association of Boards of
Pharmacy (“NABP”) accredited digital pharmacies. In addition, the Company also provides fulfillment of
prescription medication and other services to customers of other healthcare providers including manufacturers
and telemedicine and online services companies (“Partner Services”). The Company’s primary SIC Code is
5912 - Drugstores and Proprietary Stores. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.
We process all orders from our distribution center in Florence, Kentucky, 15 miles south of Cincinnati, Ohio.
Processing from this location allows us to reach up to 80% of the U.S. population by standard ground shipping
in two days from shipment date. To maintain high customer satisfaction ratings and quality control over our
entire process, we avoid drop shipping orders. Due to the relatively short lead time required to fill orders for
our products, usually 24 to 48 hours, order backlog has not proven material to our business.
Our customer support representatives operate from our call center in Florence, Kentucky, available 8 a.m. to
8 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Saturday. Customers
can contact us via e-mail, online chat, fax, and telephone, plus our online Help Center outlines store policies
and provides answers to customers’ frequently asked questions.
Historical Background
In March 2007, Hwareh.com, Inc. (“Old HW”), a Delaware corporation formerly named
HealthWarehouse.com, Inc., was incorporated to carry on the business of selling OTC products. In November
2007, we began to develop the proprietary software necessary for our business, and in February 2008, we
successfully launched our website (www.healthwarehouse.com) running on our own proprietary software. In
March 2008, as part of our expansion into prescription drugs, we completed construction of a full-service
7
licensed pharmacy within our warehouse in Loveland, Ohio. This pharmacy passed inspection by the Ohio
State Pharmacy Board in April 2008. On August 1, 2011, the Company transferred its operations to the
current facility located in Florence, Kentucky.
In August 2009, Old HW completed a reverse merger into Clacendix, Inc., a shell company formerly known
as Ion Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed on August 5, 1998. As of the date of the reverse
merger, the Company no longer operated as a shell company, changed its corporate name to
HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. and changed the name of its subsidiary to Hwareh.com, Inc. The Company has
a fiscal year end date of December 31.
The wholly-owned subsidiaries of HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. are Hwareh.com, Inc., Hocks.com, Inc., ION
Holding NV, ION Belgium NV. Hocks.com, Inc., ION Holding NV and ION Belgium NV are inactive
subsidiaries.
Reverse stock split
In October 2020, at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the stockholders approved an
amendment to the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s
common stock at a ratio of 1-for-50 and to decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock in
proportion to the reverse stock split. However, the Board of Directors has not yet determined if or when to
effect the reverse stock split.
Government Regulation
Federal and state laws and regulations govern many aspects of our business and are specific to pharmacies
and the sale of OTC drugs. Our pharmacy passed inspection by the Kentucky Board of Pharmacy and we are
presently licensed as a pharmacy authorized to dispense to patients in 50 states and the District of Columbia.
We ship our non-prescription products to all 50 states, U.S. Territories, and APO/FPO military and embassy
addresses.
We believe the Company is in substantial compliance with all existing legal and regulatory requirements
material to the operation of our business and have standard operating procedures and controls in place
designed to assist in ensuring compliance with existing contractual requirements and state and federal law.
We diligently monitor and audit our adherence to these procedures and controls and take prompt corrective
and disciplinary action when appropriate. However, we cannot predict how courts or regulatory agencies may
interpret existing laws or regulations or what additional federal or state legislation or regulatory initiatives
may be enacted in the future regarding healthcare or the pharmacy industry, and the application of complex
standards to the operation of our business creates areas of uncertainty.
In addition, although we presently do not accept insurance reimbursement nor do we participate in federal
and state programs such as Medicare and Medicaid, this may change in the future. If in the future we do
accept reimbursement from commercial or governmental payors, we would be subject to extensive
government regulation including numerous state and federal laws and corresponding regulations directed at
preventing fraud and abuse and regulating reimbursement.
Among the federal and state laws and regulations that currently affect or may reasonably affect in the future
aspects of our business are the following:
Regulation of Our Pharmacy Operations
The practice of pharmacy is generally regulated at the state level by state boards of pharmacy. Our pharmacy
must be licensed in the state in which it is located. In some states, regulations require compliance with
standards promulgated by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP). The USP creates standards in the
packaging, storage and shipping of pharmaceuticals. Also, many of the states where we deliver
pharmaceuticals, including controlled substances, have laws and regulations that require non-resident
pharmacies to register with that state’s board of pharmacy or similar regulatory body. In addition, some states
8
have proposed laws to regulate online pharmacies; we may be subject to this legislation if passed.
Furthermore, if our pharmacy dispenses durable medical equipment items, such as infusion pumps, that bear
a federal legend requiring dispensing pursuant to a prescription, we would also be regulated by applicable
state and federal durable medical equipment laws.
Federal agencies further regulate our pharmacy operations. Pharmacies must register with the Drug
Enforcement Administration (DEA) and individual state-controlled substance authorities in order to dispense
controlled substances. We sell controlled substances and therefore require a DEA license and maintain said
DEA license. In addition, the FDA inspects facilities in connection with procedures to effect recalls of
prescription drugs. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) also has requirements for interstate sellers of
goods. The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) has statutory authority to restrict the transmission of drugs and
medicines through the mail to a degree that could have an adverse effect on our mail-order operations. The
USPS historically has exercised this statutory authority only with respect to controlled substances. If the
USPS restricts our ability to deliver drugs through the mail, alternative means of delivery are available to us.
However, alternative means of delivery could be significantly more expensive. The Department of
Transportation has regulatory authority to impose restrictions on drugs inserted in the stream of commerce.
These regulations generally do not apply to the USPS and its operations.
Additionally, under the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 and related state and local regulations,
our pharmacists are required to offer counseling to our customers about medication, dosage, delivery systems,
common side effects, adverse effects or interactions and therapeutic contraindications, proper storage,
prescription refill and other information deemed significant by the pharmacists. We are also subject to
requirements under the Controlled Substances Act and federal DEA regulations, as well as related state and
local laws and regulations, relating to our pharmacy operations, including registration, security,
recordkeeping and reporting requirements related to the purchase, storage and dispensing of controlled
substances, prescription drugs and some OTC drugs.
“Compendial standards,” which can also be called “official compendium,” means the standards for drugs
related to strength, purity, weight, quality, labeling and packing contained in the USP, official National
Formulary, or any supplement to any of them. Under the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1938, a drug
recognized by the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States must meet all compendial standards and
labeling requirements contained therein, or it will be considered adulterated (for example, lacking appropriate
strength, quality or purity; or containing poisonous or unsanitary ingredients) or misbranded (for example,
having a false or misleading label; or a label containing an inaccurate description of contents). If we add
homeopathic remedies to our product offerings, we will be required to comply with the Food, Drug and
Cosmetic Act. The distribution of adulterated or misbranded homeopathic remedies or other drugs is
prohibited under the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, and violations could result in substantial fines and other
monetary penalties, seizure of the misbranded or adulterated items, and/or criminal sanctions.
We also are required to comply with the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) when
selling dietary supplements and vitamins. The DSHEA generally governs the production, sale and marketing
(including labeling) of dietary supplements, and it requires reporting to the FDA of certain adverse events
regarding dietary supplements.
We believe that our operations have the appropriate licenses required under the laws of the states in which
they are located, and that we conduct our pharmacy operations in accordance with the laws and regulations
of these states.
Health Management Services Regulation
All states regulate the practice of medicine and require licensing under applicable state law. It is not our intent
to practice medicine and we have attempted to structure our website and our business to avoid violation of
state licensing requirements. However, the application of this area of the law to digital services such as ours
is not well established and, accordingly, a state regulatory authority could at some time allege that some
9
portion of our business violates these statutes. Any such allegation could harm our business. Further, any
liability based on a determination that we engaged in the unlawful practice of medicine may be excluded from
coverage under the terms of our general liability insurance policy.
Consumer Protection Laws
Most states have consumer protection laws designed to ensure that information provided to consumers is
adequate, fair and not misleading. We believe that our practices conform to the requirements of state
consumer protection laws. However, we may be subject to further scrutiny under these laws as they are often
interpreted broadly.
Regulation Relating to Data Transmission and Confidentiality of Patient Identifiable Information
Dispensing of prescriptions and management of prescription drug benefits require the ability to utilize patient-
specific information. Government regulation of the use of patient identifiable information has grown
substantially over the past several years. At the federal level, Congress enacted the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which extensively regulates the transmission, use and
disclosure of health information by all participants in healthcare delivery, including physicians, hospitals,
insurers and other payers. To the extent that our pharmacy operations engage in certain electronic transactions
(including claims for reimbursement by third-party payors), we may be a covered entity which is directly
subject to these requirements. Additionally, regulation of the use of patient-identifiable information is likely
to increase. Many states have passed or are considering laws addressing the use and disclosure of health
information. These proposals vary widely, some relating to only certain types of information, others to only
certain uses, and yet others to only certain types of entities. These laws and regulations have a significant
impact on our operations, products and services, and compliance with them is a major operational
requirement. Regulations and legislation that severely restrict or prohibit our use of patient identifiable
information could materially adversely affect our business.
Sanctions for failing to comply with HIPAA standards include criminal and civil penalties. If we are found
to have violated any state or federal statute or regulation with regard to the confidentiality, dissemination or
use of patient medical information, we could be liable for significant damages, fines or penalties.
Fraudulent Billing, Anti-Kickback, Stark, Civil Monetary Penalties and False Claims Laws and Regulations
Our operations may in the future participate in federal and state programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. If
we do, we would be subject to extensive government regulation including numerous state and federal laws
and corresponding regulations directed at preventing fraud and abuse and regulating reimbursement. The
government’s Medicare and Medicaid regulations are complex and sometimes subjective and therefore may
require our management’s interpretation. If we were to participate in federal and state programs such as
Medicare and Medicaid, our compliance with Medicare and Medicaid regulations may be reviewed by federal
or state agencies, including the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Office of the Inspector
General (OIG), the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the Department of Justice (DOJ),
and the FDA. To ensure compliance with Medicare, Medicaid and other regulations, government agencies
conduct periodic audits to ensure compliance with various supplier standards and billing requirements.
Similarly, regional health insurance carriers routinely conduct audits and request patient records and other
documents to support claims submitted for payment.
Federal law prohibits the payment, offer, receipt or solicitation of any remuneration that is knowingly and
willfully intended to induce the referral of Medicare, Medicaid or other federal healthcare program
beneficiaries for the purchase, lease, ordering or recommendation of the purchase, lease or ordering of items
or services reimbursable under federal healthcare programs. These laws are commonly referred to as anti-
remuneration or anti-kickback laws. Several states also have similar laws, known as “all payor” statutes,
which impose anti-kickback prohibitions on services covered by any third-party payor (whether or not a
10
federal healthcare program). Anti-kickback laws vary between states, and courts have rarely interpreted them.
If in the future we accept third-party reimbursement, we may be more explicitly subject to these laws.
Courts, the OIG and some administrative tribunals have broadly interpreted the federal anti-kickback statute
and regulations. Courts have ruled that a violation of the statute may occur even if only one of the purposes
of a payment arrangement is to induce patient referrals or purchases. Should we enter the government payor
sector, it is possible that our current practices in the commercial sector may not be appropriate in the
government payor sector.
The Ethics in Patient Referrals Law (Stark Law) prohibits physicians from making a referral for certain
Medicare-covered health items or services if they, or their family members, have a financial relationship with
the entity receiving the referral. No bill may be submitted in connection with a prohibited referral. Violations
are punishable by civil monetary penalties upon both the person making the referral and the provider
rendering the service. Such persons or entities are also subject to exclusion from Medicare and Medicaid.
Many states have adopted laws similar to the Stark Law, which restrict the ability of physicians to refer
patients to entities with which they have a financial relationship.
The Federal False Claims Act prohibits the submission of a false claim or the making of a false record or
statement in order to secure a reimbursement from a government-sponsored program. In recent years, the
federal government has launched several initiatives aimed at uncovering practices that violate false claims or
fraudulent billing laws. Civil monetary penalties may be assessed for many types of conduct, including
conduct that is outlined in the statutes above and other federal statutes in this section. Under the Deficit
Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA), states are encouraged to pass state false claims act laws similar to the federal
statute.
Sanctions for fraudulent billing, kickback violations, Stark Law violations or violations of the False Claims
Act include criminal and civil penalties. If we do accept third-party reimbursement and/or participate in
federal payor programs in the future and are found to have violated any state or federal kickback, Stark Law
or False Claims Act law, we could be liable for significant damages, fines or penalties and potentially be
ineligible to participate in federal payor programs.
Legislation and Regulation Affecting Drug Prices and Potentially Affecting the Market for Prescription
Benefit Plans and Reimbursement for Durable Medical Equipment
The federal government has increased its focus on methods drug manufacturers employ to develop pricing
information, which in turn is used in setting payments under the Medicare and Medicaid programs. One
element common to many payment formulas, the use of “average wholesale price” (AWP) as a standard
pricing unit throughout the industry, has been criticized as not accurately reflecting prices actually charged
and paid at the wholesale or retail level. The DOJ is conducting, and the House Commerce Committee has
conducted, an investigation into the use of AWP for federal program reimbursement, and whether the use of
AWP has inflated drug expenditures by the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Federal and state proposals
have sought to change the basis for calculating reimbursement of certain drugs by the Medicare and Medicaid
programs.
The DRA revised the formula used by the federal government to set the Federal Upper Limit (FUL) for
multiple source drugs by adopting 250 percent of the average manufacturer’s price (AMP) without regard to
customary prompt pay discounts to wholesalers for the least costly therapeutic equivalent. On July 17, 2006,
HHS published a Final Rule for the Medicaid Prescription Drug Program implementing the DRA in which
AMP was defined to exclude discounts and rebates to pharmacy benefit managers and include sales to mail-
order and specialty pharmacies in the AMP calculation by manufacturers.
These proposals and other legislative or regulatory adjustments that may be made to the program for
reimbursement of drugs by Medicare and Medicaid, if implemented, could affect our ability to negotiate
discounts with pharmaceutical manufacturers. They could also impact the reimbursement we may receive
11
from government payors in the future should we choose to participate in such programs. In addition, they
may affect our relationships with health plans. In some circumstances, they might also impact the
reimbursement that we would receive from managed care organizations that contract with government health
programs to provide prescription drug benefits or otherwise elect to rely on the revised pricing information.
Furthermore, private payers may choose to follow the government’s example and adopt different drug pricing
bases. This could affect our ability to negotiate with plans, manufacturers and pharmacies regarding discounts
and rebates.
Relative to our durable medical equipment operations, The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and
Modernization Act of 2003 (DIMA), established a program for the competitive acquisition of certain covered
items of durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics and supplies (DMEPOS). Diabetes testing
supplies, including test strips and lancets, which are commonly supplied via mail-order delivery, are subject
to the competitive acquisition program. Only qualified suppliers that meet defined participation standards
specified in the final rule will be permitted to engage in the competitive acquisition program. In 2010, mail-
order diabetes testing supplies may be subject to a national or regional program, which would require mail-
order suppliers to bid on supplying certain DMEPOS items.
Medicare Part D and Part B; State Prescription Drug Assistance Programs
The DIMA also offers far-reaching changes to the Medicare program. The DIMA established a new Medicare
Part D outpatient prescription drug benefit for over 40 million Americans who are eligible for Medicare.
Qualified beneficiaries, including senior citizens and disabled individuals, have had the opportunity to enroll
in Medicare Part D since January 1, 2006.
In addition, many states have expanded state prescription drug assistance programs to increase access to drugs
by those currently without coverage and/or supplement the Medicare Part D benefit of those with coverage
to offer options for a seamless benefit. In accordance with applicable CMS requirements, to participate we
may have to enter into agreements with a number of state prescription drug assistance programs and
collaborate to coordinate benefits with Medicare Part D plans.
If we participate in these state and/or federal payor programs in the future, we will have to comply with the
applicable conditions of participation for such plans, may be subject to competitive bidding requirements
under such plans, and may be subject to adverse pricing limitations imposed by such plans (including the
DRA limits described above).
Industry Standards for Pharmacy Operations
The National Committee on Quality Assurance, the American Accreditation Health Care Commission
(known as URAC), the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and other quasi-
regulatory and accrediting bodies have developed standards relating to services performed by pharmacies,
including mail order, formulary, drug utilization management and specialty pharmacy. While the actions of
these bodies do not have the force of law, pharmacy benefit managers and many clients for pharmacy benefit
manager services seek certification from them, as do other third parties. These bodies may influence the
federal government or states to adopt requirements or model acts that they promulgate. The federal
government and some states incorporate accreditation standards of these bodies, as well as the standards of
the National Association of Insurance Commissioners and the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy,
a coalition of state pharmacy boards, into their drug utilization review regulation. Future initiatives of these
bodies are uncertain and resulting standards or legislation could impose restrictions on us in a manner that
could significantly impact our business.
Litigation
In the ordinary course of business, we may become subject to lawsuits and other claims and proceedings that
might arise from litigation matters or regulatory audits. Such matters are subject to uncertainty and outcomes
12
are often not predictable with assurance. Our management does not presently expect that any current
outstanding matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or
consolidated results of operations. We are not currently involved in any pending or threatened material
litigation or other material legal proceedings nor have we been made aware of any penalties from regulatory
audits.
Employees
As of March 1, 2023, we employed 91 full-time employees and 30 part-time employees. None of our
employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement and we believe that relations with our employees
are good. The Company, from time to time, also utilizes independent contractors to supplement its workforce.
9) Description of Issuer’s products and services:
The Company sells directly to individual consumers who purchase prescription medications and OTC
products over the Internet. The Company offers over 6,200 prescription medications and over 6,000 OTC
products. The Company also provides fulfillment of prescription medication and other services to customers
of other healthcare providers.
Customers
Direct-to-consumer (B2C): We sell directly to individual consumers who purchase prescription medications
and OTC products over the Internet. B2C revenues represented 85% and 73% of total revenues in 2021 and
2022, respectively. Uninsured consumers were predominantly our customers in our early years, while over
90% of our customers carry health insurance when purchasing from us today. Rising insurance co-pays and
high deductible plans due to the Affordable Care Act have caused more consumers to pay out-of-pocket. The
Company is not dependent on any one or a few B2C customers.
Partner Services: We provided fulfillment of prescription and over-the-counter medication and other services
to customers of other healthcare providers and manufacturers. In most cases, we bill the partner services
customer on a monthly basis for the services provided including fulfillment fees, product cost and shipping.
Credit terms with partner services customers range from Net 10 days to Net 45 days. Partner services
represented 15% and 27% of revenues in 2021 and 2022, respectively, and one customer represented 5% and
9% of total revenues during 2021 and 2022, respectively.
Suppliers
There are a number of suppliers available for the pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical products that we
sell. Our principal suppliers are TopRx, Amerisource Bergen, Cardinal Health and Keysource. as well as
many direct manufacturers like Amneal, Prasco, Greenstone, Inspire, HPS Rx and National Vitamin
Company. While we source our supplies from a limited number of suppliers, with three representing
approximately 76% of purchases in 2022, we do not believe that our business is dependent on any one supplier
since most of the products that we sell are readily available from a number of alternative suppliers. Even if
a significant supplier were to no longer be available to us, we believe that we could source replacement
product through one or more alternative suppliers without having a significant effect on our business.
Competition
The market for prescription and OTC health products is intensely competitive and highly fragmented.
However, there are fewer competitors focusing on the out-of-pocket prescription market. Our competitors in
the segment include chain drugstores, mail order pharmacies, pharmacy benefits managers (PBMs), mass
market retailers, warehouse clubs, supermarkets and other online retailers. Many of these potential
competitors in the market are also established organizations with greater access to resources and capital. In
addition, we face competition from foreign online pharmacies that can often sell drugs to U.S. residents at a
lower price because they do not comply with U.S. pharmacy regulations, are not subject to U.S. regulatory
oversight, or both. We also compete with Internet portals and online service providers that feature shopping
13
services and with other online or mail-order retailers that offer products similar or the same to those that we
sell.
We believe that the principal competitive factors in our market includes brand awareness and preference,
company credibility, product selection and availability, convenience, price, actual or perceived value, website
features, functionality and performance, ease of purchasing, customer service, privacy, quality and quantity
of information supporting purchase decisions (such as product information and reviews), reliability and speed
of order shipment.

be able to raise sufficient additional capital needed to operate our business;

●
our ability to obtain supply at favorable rates;
●
unexpected changes in our industry’s competitive forces including the manner and degree in which our
competitors serve our target market;

Cost of sales were $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to $5.0 million for the

ended December 31, 2022 was $11.9 million, a $808,000 or 7.3%, increase when compared to the same
period in 2021, due to the increase in sales volume, offset by lower gross margins. Gross margin
percentage decreased year-over-year from 69.0% for the year ended December 31, 2021 to 65.8% for the
year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to (i) the lower margin partner services business (relative to
the direct-to-consumer business) representing a higher percentage of sales and (ii) lower year-over-year
margins on the direct-to-consumer (B2C) over-the-counter business including a $177,814 write down of

ended December 31, 2022, a decrease of $10,000, or 5.9%, primarily due to a reduction in amortization of
debt discount related to the issuance of convertible notes and higher interest income earned on excess cash
balances. Interest income was $7,000 and $4,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively, as excess funds were invested in interest bearing money market accounts which offered higher
interest rates in 2022.

Adjusted EBITDAS
We believe Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”),
a financial measure not included in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“U.S. GAAP”), is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in
our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary for different
companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. We believe that:
•
Adjusted EBITDA provides investors and other users of our financial information consistency and
comparability with our past financial performance, facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations
and facilitates comparisons with other companies, many of which use similar non-U.S. GAAP financial
measures to supplement their U.S. GAAP results; and
•
Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it excludes non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization,
stock-based compensation and one-time charges, which the amount of such expense in any specific period
may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations and these expenses
can vary significantly between periods.
We use Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with traditional U.S. GAAP measures as part of our overall
assessment of our performance, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and to communicate
with our lenders, stockholders and board of directors concerning our financial performance.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a substitute for other measures of financial performance
reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. There are limitations to using non-U.S. GAAP financial measures,
including that other companies may calculate these measures differently than we do. We compensate for the
inherent limitations associated with using Adjusted EBITDAS through disclosure of these limitations,
presentation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reconciliation of Adjusted
EBITDA to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, specifically net loss.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities in which we have financial guarantees,

material continuing risks, contingent liabilities or any other obligations under a variable interest in an
unconsolidated entity that provides us with financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support.
Impact of Inflation
While the inflationary environment experienced in 2022 increased our shipping, packaging and labor costs,
we believe that inflation did not had a material impact on our results of operations for the years ended
December 31, 2022 and 2021. We cannot assure that future inflation will not have an adverse impact on our
operating results and financial condition.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s working capital deficiency increased from $572,000 at December 31, 2021 to $1.5 million
as of December 31, 2022 and the stockholder deficiency increased from $2.8 million at December 31, 2021
to $3.0 million as of December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company had a net
loss of $950,000 and net cash used by operating activities of $624,000. As of December 31, 2022, the
Company had cash and liquid investments totaling $1.0 million.
In 2022, the Company extended the maturity date of the Convertible Notes to April 20, 2024, which reduced
its current obligations as of December 31, 2022. The primary component of the Company’s remaining current
obligations is the accrued dividends totaling $2,395,631 to the holders of the Series B Preferred shares. The
Company believes it would satisfy a majority, if not all, of such dividends through the issuance of additional
shares of the Series B Preferred Stock versus a required cash outlay, which is at the Company’s discretion.
As such, the Company believes that its current financial resources are sufficient to satisfy the Company’s
estimated liquidity needs for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial
statements.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had cash on hand of $1.0 million. Our cash flow from operating,
investing and financing activities during these periods were as follows:
For the year ended December 31, 2022, cash flows included net cash used by operating activities of $624,000.
This amount included a decrease in operating cash related to a net loss of $952,000, partially offset by
aggregate non-cash adjustments of $1.3 million, plus aggregate cash used by changes in operating assets and
liabilities of $960,000 (primarily a result of an increase in accounts receivable and inventory, partially offset
by increased in accounts payable and accrued expenses). For the year ended December 31, 2021, cash flows
included net cash provided by operating activities of $401,000. This amount included a decrease in operating
cash related to a net loss of $573,000, partially offset by aggregate non-cash adjustments of $905,000, plus
23
aggregate cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $68,000 (primarily a result of an
increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and a decrease in receivables).
For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $513,000 and
$87,000, respectively, used for capital expenditures and capitalization of software development costs.
There were no financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Changes in Financial Condition
The Company’s total assets were $3.9 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $314,000 over the prior
year primarily due to increases in accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, software development costs and
the addition of the operating lease right of use asset, offset by a reduction in cash on hand. Total liabilities
were $6.3 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $810,000 over the prior year, primarily due to
increased accrued expenses (dividends), accounts payable and the addition of the operating lease liability.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS
For the Year Ended
December 31
34
HEALTHWAREHOUSE.COM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. (“HEWA” or the “Company”), a Delaware company incorporated in 1998, is an online
mail order pharmacy, licensed and/or authorized to sell and deliver prescriptions in all 50 United States and the District of
Columbia focusing on the out-of-pocket prescription drug market. The Company is a Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Site
(“VIPPS”) accredited by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (“NABP”). The Company markets a complete range
of generic, brand name, and pet prescription medications as well as over-the-counter ("OTC") medications and products.
2. Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s working capital deficiency increased from approximately $572,000 at December 31, 2021 to
approximately $1.5 million as of December 31, 2022 and the stockholder deficiency increased from $2.8 million at December
31, 2021 to $3.0 million as of December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company had a net loss of
$950,000 and net cash used by operating activities of $624,000. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had cash and liquid
investments totaling $1.0 million.
In 2022, the Company extended the maturity date of the Convertible Notes from April 30, 2023 to April 30, 2024,
which reduced its current obligations as of December 31, 2022. The primary component of the Company’s remaining current
obligations is the accrued dividends totaling $2,395,631 to the holders of the Series B Preferred shares. The Company believes
it would satisfy a majority, if not all, of such dividends through the issuance of additional shares of the Series B Preferred Stock
versus a required cash outlay, which is at the Company’s discretion. As such, the Company believes that its current financial
resources are sufficient to satisfy the Company’s estimated liquidity needs for at least twelve months from the date of issuance
of these consolidated financial statements.
Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplates continuation of the Company
as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the consolidated financial statements do not necessarily represent realizable or
settlement values. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company operates in one segment considering the nature of the Company’s products and services, methods used
to distribute the product and the regulatory environment in which the Company operates. The Company has chosen to round
certain dollar amounts within this Annual Report and in these notes to the consolidated financial statements for simplicity of
presentation.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HealthWarehouse.com, Inc., Hwareh.com, Inc.,
Hocks.com, Inc., ION Holding NV, ION Belgium NV, its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Hocks.com, Inc., ION Holding NV and
ION Belgium NV are inactive subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates include reserves related to accounts
receivable, the net realizable value of inventory, the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets and website development
35
costs, the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets, the valuation of equity instruments, debt discounts and
contingencies.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased
to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had money market accounts held at banks and other
financial institutions which are classified as cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable
The Company’s management has established an allowance for doubtful accounts sufficient to cover probable and
reasonably estimable losses. The nature of the direct-to-consumer (B2C) business, its largest business segment, is that the
majority of payments are received before the product is shipped. The Company does have accounts receivable related to its
fulfilment business as it has extended terms to its partner services customers ranging from 10 to 45 days. If the financial
conditions of partner services customers were to materially deteriorate, an increase in the allowance amount could be required.
The allowance for doubtful accounts considers several factors, including collection experience, current economic trends,
estimates of forecasted write-offs, aging of the accounts receivable, and other factors. The Company has determined that an
allowance for doubtful accounts was not necessary as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Inventories
The Company’s inventory is comprised of finished goods. The Company measures inventory at the lower of cost or
net realizable value, defined as estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of
disposal. The Company performs regular reviews of inventory quantities on hand and evaluates the realizable value of its
inventories. The valuation process for excess or slow-moving inventory contains uncertainty because management must use
judgment to estimate when the inventory will be sold and the quantities and prices at which the inventory will be sold in the
normal course of business. The Company adjusts the carrying value of the inventory as necessary with estimated valuation
reserves for excess, obsolete, and slow-moving inventory by comparing the individual inventory items to forecasted product
demand, taking into account current risks, trends and changes in industry conditions. Obsolescence of inventory items has
historically been immaterial. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company wrote down the value of certain inventory
items to net realizable value resulting in a $177,814 reduction in the inventory value of those items. The inventory is valued at
the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined using the first-in, first-out method.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-
line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The costs of additions and betterments are capitalized and expenditures
for repairs and maintenance, which do not extend the economic useful life of the related assets, are expensed in the period
incurred. Gains or losses on disposal of property and equipment are reflected in the statements of operations in the period of
disposal. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not record any impairment of property and
equipment.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are
included in right-of-use assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The current and long-term components of operating lease
liabilities are included in the current operating lease liabilities and noncurrent operating lease liabilities, respectively, on the
consolidated balance sheets.
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future
minimum lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses the rate implicit in the lease or an incremental borrowing rate
based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Certain
leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.
36
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews the carrying value of intangibles and other 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 long-lived
assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the asset or asset group to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or
asset group is expected to generate. If the undiscounted cash flows of such assets are less than the carrying amount, the
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair
value. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not record any impairment of long lived assets.
Software and Website Development Costs
The Company capitalizes costs associated with the development of its proprietary software and website for internal use
in accordance with ASC 350 – Intangibles, Goodwill and Other. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company
capitalized $272,000 of website development costs. The Company will amortize the software and website development costs
on a three year straight-line basis upon completion and implementation of the website which is anticipated to take place in the
first half of 2023.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. These fair value measurements apply to all financial instruments that are
measured and reported on a fair value basis.
Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, financial instruments are categorized
according to the fair value hierarchy, which ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair
values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.
Level 2 - Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop
its own assumptions.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such
cases, the assignment of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant
to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement
in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820,
“Fair Value Measurement”, approximates the carrying amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to
their short-term nature.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the difference between the tax basis of assets and
liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts (“temporary differences”) at enacted tax rates in effect for the years
in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
U.S. GAAP prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and
measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
Management has evaluated and concluded that there were no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in
the Company’s financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company does not expect any significant changes
in the unrecognized tax benefits within twelve months of the reporting date.
The Company classifies interest expense and any related penalties related to income tax uncertainties as a component
of income tax expense. No interest or penalties have been recognized during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
37
Debt Discounts
The Company records, as a discount to notes and convertible notes, the relative fair value of warrants issued in
connection with the issuances and the intrinsic value of any conversion options 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 to interest expense using the interest method over
the earlier of the term of the related debt or their earliest date of redemption.
Revenue Recognition
The Company records revenue under the adoption of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, by analyzing
exchanges with its customers using a five-step analysis: (i) identify the contract, (ii) identify performance obligations, (iii)
determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price and (v) recognize revenue.
Revenue is generated through the sale of over-the-counter medication and prescription medication. The Company also
generates revenue by providing fulfillment of prescription medication and over-the-counter products and other services to
customers of other healthcare providers (“Partner Services”). These revenue streams culminate in a single performance
obligation to provide the products and the service, and revenue is recorded in an amount that reflects the net consideration that
the Company expects to receive for each revenue stream. Prices for the products are based on agreed upon rates with customers
and do not include financing components or noncash consideration. The amount of consideration received and revenue
recognized is variable for services offered to partner services customers and is impacted by volume rebates, which are generally
tied to the number of prescriptions filled during the fulfillment process by the Company and settled on a monthly basis.
The Company records an estimate for provisions of discounts and other adjustments for its product shipments and are
reflected as contra revenues in arriving at reported net revenues. The Company’s discounts are known at the time of sale;
correspondingly, the Company reduces gross product sales for such discounts. The Company’s returns have historically been
immaterial, therefore, the Company does not record a provision for returns.
The Company has determined that there is one performance obligation, which is the shipment and delivery of the
product; this performance obligation is transferred at a discrete point in time. The Company recognizes revenue when
performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied in an amount that reflects the consideration
the Company expects to receive in exchange for the product or service. For all customers, revenue is recognized at a point-in-
time (at the time the medication is shipped or at the time the fulfillment or other service is performed) based on the agreed upon
terms with each customer when customer has control. The Company defers revenue when cash has been received from the
customer, but shipment has not yet occurred. Such amounts are reflected as deferred revenues within accrued expenses in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Payments by customers to the Company for the sale of over-the-counter medication and prescription medication are
typically made by credit card payment and received by the Company within 24-48 hours. Payments by customers to the
Company for partner services are either prepaid by the customer or paid by check or electronic funds transfer upon receipt of a
monthly invoice. The Company extends terms to some partner services customers ranging from 10 to 45 days.
The Company receives upfront payments to offset set up costs related to new partner services contracts, which may
include engineering time, setting up workflow, and purchasing computer equipment for a dedicated processing station. The
setup costs are incurred to generate and/or enhance resources that will be used to satisfy performance obligations of the customer
in the future through the services provided via the contract entered into with the customer. As such, the set up costs are recorded
as deferred revenue and recognized over the term of the contract with the customer. The Company had $14,333 of these costs
included in the deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2022.
Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that the Company collects from customers that are both imposed on and
concurrent with revenue producing activities (such as sales tax, value-added tax, and excise taxes) are excluded from revenue
and recorded as sales tax payable in accrued expenses.
38
Disaggregation of Revenue
Revenue is primarily generated through the sale of over-the-counter medication and prescription medication (i) sold
directly to consumers through the Company’s website and call center (“B2C”) and (ii) through fulfillment and other services
provided to other healthcare providers (“Partner Services”). The following table summarizes revenue for the years ended
December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Contract assets and liabilities
Contract liabilities are recorded for arrangements where the Company has received customer deposits from the
customer but has not yet provided the fulfillment or other services to partners. The Company had contract liabilities of $32,705
and $75,765 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which represented refundable customer deposits and was recorded
as deferred revenue and was included in accrued expenses and other liabilities. Other than accounts receivable, there were no
contract assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company policy is to provide free standard shipping and handling for most orders. Shipping and handling costs
incurred are recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. Such amounts aggregated $2,060,600 and $1,660,777
for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
In certain circumstances, shipping and handling costs are charged to the customer and recognized in Net Sales. The
amounts recognized in Net Sales for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were $352,692 and $375,999, respectively.
Advertising and Marketing Expenses
The Company expenses all advertising and marketing costs as incurred which was $1,757,696 and $1,725,020 for the
years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Sales Taxes
The net sales of the Company do not include sales tax imposed on its goods and services because the Company is a
pass-through conduit for collecting and remitting sales taxes. Beginning in 2018 and continuing into 2022, various states have
enacted or are considering enacting legislation to require the collection of sales tax on ecommerce transactions shipped to their
state. Such requirements vary by state and are subject to specified de minimis levels and various exclusions, including
prescription medication. Compliance with current legislation enacted is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s future operations or results.
Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share includes potentially
dilutive securities such as outstanding options, warrants and convertible notes, using the if-converted method in the
determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period.

conversion price of 80% of the 30 day weighted average closing price of $0.162 and $0.153 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards is based on the estimated fair value of the
award. For employees, directors and non-employees, the award is measured on the grant date. The Company recognizes the
estimated fair value of the award as compensation cost over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the
option vesting term. The Company generally issues new shares of common stock to satisfy option and warrant exercises.
Preferred Stock
Preferred shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at
fair value. The Company classifies conditionally redeemable preferred shares, which includes preferred shares that feature
redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain
events not solely within the Company’s control, as temporary equity. At all other times, the Company classifies its preferred
shares in stockholders’ deficiency.
Convertible Instruments
U.S. 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 otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles 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. An exception to this rule is when the host instrument is
deemed to be conventional as that term is described under applicable U.S. GAAP.
When the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host
instruments, 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
40
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 also records, when
necessary, deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the
differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the transaction and the effective
conversion price embedded in the preferred shares.
Common Stock Warrants and Other Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii)
provide the Company with a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share
settlement) providing that such contracts are indexed to the Company's own stock. The Company classifies as assets or liabilities
any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and
if that event is outside the Company’s control) or (ii) gives the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in
shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company assesses classification of its common stock purchase warrants
and other free-standing derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and
liabilities is required.
The Company evaluated its free-standing warrants to purchase common stock to assess their proper classification in
the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 using the applicable classification criteria enumerated under
U.S. GAAP and determined that the common stock purchase warrants contain fixed settlement provisions, therefore they have
been classified as equity.
Risks and Uncertainties
COVID-19 Pandemic: In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus
(COVID-19) as a pandemic which continues to spread throughout the United States. There are no comparable recent events
which may provide guidance as to the effect of the spread of COVID-19 and a potential pandemic, and, as a result, the ultimate
impact of the COVID-19 outbreak or a similar health epidemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. The Company does
not yet know the full extent of potential delays or impacts on our business, our operations or the global economy as a whole.
Possible effects may include, but are not limited to, mandates from federal, state and local governments that would directly
prohibit our ability to conduct business, absenteeism in the Company’s labor workforce and limitations on availability of
products and supplies. The effects could have a material impact on our operations. The Company will continue to monitor the
COVID-19 situation closely.
To date, the pandemic has had a limited impact on our business operations due to our classification as an essential
business in Kentucky. The Company has implemented policies and procedures based on recommended guidelines provided by
the CDC in order to limit the possibility of the infection of employees, including transitioning over 50% of our staff of
approximately 121 employees to telecommuting from their homes. The Company continues to experience shortages in the
supply of medications, particularly over-the-counter, albeit to a lesser extent than was experienced during the beginning of the
pandemic in 2020.
War in Ukraine: In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country
of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against
the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy are not
determinable as of the date of these financial statements and the specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results
of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these financial statements.
Inflation Reduction Act Excise Tax: On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was
signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases
of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign
corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its
stockholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the
shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations
are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during
the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the
41
“Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance
of the excise tax. Any share redemption or other share repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a
Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company
would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise will depend on a
number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with a Business
Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or
other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business
Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other
guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming
stockholder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could reduce
the cash available on hand. The impact of this IR Act does not have an impact in 2022 and may possibly impact the financial
statements and the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows after January 1, 2023.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 will replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a
methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable
information to inform credit loss estimates. In connection with recognizing credit losses on receivables and other financial
instruments, the Company will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model.
This standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The adoption
of this standard will be through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company is
currently assessing the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-
20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible
Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”. ASU 2020-06 simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by
removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will
be reported as a single liability instrument and more convertible preferred stock as a single equity instrument with no separate
accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity
contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. ASU 2020-06
also simplifies the diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculation in certain areas. This standard is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact this
guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
There were no other recent accounting standard updates that the Company has not yet adopted that we believe would
have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Convertible Promissory Notes
The Company executed convertible note purchase agreements (the “Convertible Purchase Agreements”) and a security
agreement, as amended, (the “Convertible Security Agreement”) on February 7, 2020 and April 12, 2020, and convertible
secured promissory notes on February 10, 2020 and April 12, 2020 (the “Convertible Notes”) (collectively the “Convertible
Note Agreements”). Under the terms of the Convertible Notes, the Company borrowed an aggregate of $2,200,000 from a
group of eleven investors. The Convertible Notes bear interest on the unpaid principal balance until the full amount of principal
has been paid or converted to common shares at a fixed rate equal to 6% per annum. Under the terms of the Convertible Notes,
the Company has agreed to make quarterly payments of accrued interest on the last day of every calendar quarter beginning on
March 31, 2020. The principal amount and all unpaid accrued interest on the Convertible Notes was originally payable on
April 30, 2022, which was extended to April 30, 2024 as noted below. As of December 31, 2022, the outstanding principal
balance on the Convertible Promissory Notes was $2,187,010, net of the debt discount of $12,990, and accrued interest was $0.
At any time prior to the maturity date, each purchaser may convert their Convertible Note balance, in whole or in part,
into shares of the Company’s common stock at conversion rates ranging between $0.12 and $0.14 per share (the “Conversion
Rate”) which was the 30-day weighted average closing share price on the closing dates. The Company may initiate the
conversion of the Convertible Notes at any time prior to the maturity date in the event that the 60-day weighted average price
of a share of the Company’s common stock as reported on OTC Markets exceeds $0.30 per share. The Conversion Price is
subject to adjustment in the event of future dilutive transactions.
Pursuant to the Convertible Security Agreement, the Company granted a junior security interest in all of the Company's
assets, in order to secure the Company's obligation to repay the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Note security interest is
junior to up to $1,000,000 of senior security interests. The Convertible Loan Agreements contain customary negative covenants
restricting the Company's ability to take certain actions without the consent of the agent for the Convertible Note holders,
including incurring additional indebtedness, transferring or encumbering assets, paying dividends or making certain other
payments, and acquiring other businesses. The repayment of the Convertible Promissory Notes may be accelerated prior to the
maturity date upon certain specified events of default, including failure to pay, bankruptcy, breach of covenant, and breach of
representations and warranties.
The Company received an aggregate of $1,661,969 of cash proceeds, net of costs associated with the transaction,
including $500,000 from Millennium Trust Company LLC Custodian FBO Timothy E. Reilly IRA. The cash proceeds from
the Convertible Promissory Note were used to repay the outstanding balance of the Melrose Unsecured Note of $750,000. In
addition, the Company exchanged the Millenium Promissory Note with an outstanding balance of $500,000 for a like amount
of Convertible Notes. Both Melrose Capital Advisors, LLC and the Timothy E. Reilly IRA are owned and controlled by Tim
Reilly who is Chairman of the Company and a beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of
common stock. As such, the Millennium note in the Convertible Notes transaction is a related party transaction.
The Company incurred costs associated with the issuance of the Convertible Promissory Notes which totaled $38,031
which was recognized as a debt discount. The debt discount is being amortized using the effective interest method over the
term of the Convertible Promissory Note.
44
The Company received a waiver on February 10, 2020 from the majority holder of the Series B convertible preferred
stock prior to completing the Convertible Note transaction. As part of the agreement to extend the waiver of the debt limitation
to April 30, 2024 and increase the limitation on indebtedness from $2,500,000 to $3,000,000, the Series B Preferred shareholders
were issued warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to the 30-day weighted average
closing price for the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance. The warrants were issued on March 5, 2020 at an
exercise price of $0.11 per share which was the 30-day weighted average closing share price on the grant date and had an
aggregate grant date value of $57,509 which was recognized as a debt discount. The debt discount is being amortized using the
effective interest method over the term of the Convertible Note. As of December 31, 2022, debt discount of $2,880 remains
unamortized.
Effective December 31, 2021, the Company entered into amendments to the Convertible Purchase Agreements (the
“Amendments to the Convertible Notes”) and issued amended and restated Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Amended
Notes”) to the Convertible Note investors, whereby the maturity dates of the notes were extended to April 30, 2023. As part of
the agreement to extend of the maturity date, the Company agreed to issue warrants to the holders to purchase 1,500 shares of
common stock for each $25,000 increment of their convertible note. On December 31, 2021, warrants to purchase an aggregate
of 132,000 shares of common stock were issued to the holders of the Convertible Notes. The warrants were issued at exercise
prices ranging between $0.12 and $0.14, matching the conversion prices of the underlying Convertible Note. The 30-day
weighted average closing share price on the grant date was $0.15. The warrants have a term of five years and an aggregate grant
date value of $20,213 which was recognized as a debt discount on the grant date. The debt discount is being amortized using
the effective interest method over the term of the Convertible Promissory Note. As of December 31, 2022, debt discount of
$5,053 remains unamortized.
On December 31, 2021, the Company received a waiver from the majority holder of the Series B convertible preferred
stock prior to completing the Amendment to the Convertible Notes. As part of the agreement to extend the waiver of the debt
limitation to April 30, 2023 and maintain the limitation on indebtedness at $3,000,000, the Series B Preferred shareholders were
issued warrants to purchase 132,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.12 per share. The 30-day weighted
average closing share price on the grant date was $0.15. The warrants have a term of five years and an aggregate grant date
value of $20,230 which was recognized as a debt discount on the grant date. The debt discount is being amortized using the
effective interest method over the term of the Convertible Note. As of December 31, 2022, debt discount of $5,057 remains
unamortized.
It was determined that the debt was not substantially different as a result of the amendment, therefore, it was accounted
for as a modification of debt.
Effective December 31, 2022, the Company entered into amendments to the Convertible Purchase Agreements (the
“Second Amendments to the Convertible Notes”) and issued amended and restated Convertible Promissory Notes (the
“Amended Notes”) to the Convertible Note investors, whereby the maturity dates of the notes were extended to April 30, 2024.
As part of the agreement to extend of the maturity date, the Company agreed to increase the interest rate from 6% to 7%,
effective December 31,2022.
On December 31, 2022, the Company received a waiver from the majority holder of the Series B convertible preferred
stock prior to completing the Amendment to the Convertible Notes. The waiver extended the limitation on indebtedness of
$3,000,000 to April 30, 2024.
It was determined that the debt was not substantially different as a result of the amendment, therefore, it was accounted
for as a modification of debt.
7. Operating Leases
The Company is a party to a lease agreement for office and storage space for its headquarters in Florence, Kentucky.
On July 30, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment of the lease agreement which extended the lease for an additional
five years to December 31, 2024. The amended monthly lease rate will range between $7,955 and $9,498. The Company has
an option to extend the term by three years, however, the Company determined that it was not reasonably certain to exercise the
renewal option and such renewal was excluded from the operating lease right-of-use, or ROU, asset and operating lease liability
recorded for this lease.
45
The Company is responsible for real estate taxes, maintenance and other operating expenses applicable to the leased
premises which are recognized as variable lease expense in the period when incurred.
This lease is classified as an operating lease and is included in operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities.
Since the Company's lease did not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its estimated incremental borrowing rate based
on the lease term and other information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
Supplemental balance sheet information as of December 31, 2022 is as follows:
The aggregate future minimum lease payments for operating leases as of December 31, 2022 were as follows:

In October 2020, at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the stockholders of the Corporation
approved an amendment to the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s
common stock at a ratio of 1-for-50 and to decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock in proportion to the
reverse stock split. However, the Board of Directors has not yet determined if or when to effect the reverse stock split.

On April 14, 2017, the Company filed a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission terminating the
registration of its common stock under Rule 12 g-4(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company transitioned
to the OTC Pink Sheets – Current Information tier of the OTC Market on July 10, 2017. On May 11, 2021, the Company was
approved for listing and began trading on the OTCQB Market.
Common Stock
During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 561,176 and 527,840 shares
of common stock, respectively, to directors of the Company for payment of their accrued noncash portion of their director’s
fees. The shares had an aggregate grant date values of $96,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, of which
$24,000 had been accrued and included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities at December 31, 2021 and 2020. The
shares were valued at the 30-day weighted average closing share price on the grant date which ranged between $0.16 and $0.20
per share in 2022 and between $0.17 and $0.20 in 2021.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,470,589 shares of common stock to
the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock related to the holders’ election to convert 2,500 of their Series C Preferred shares
which had a principal amount of $250,000. The conversion was affected at $0.17 per share. See Preferred Stock – Series C
Preferred Stock below.
Stock-based compensation expense related to common stock issued was recorded in the consolidated statements of
operations as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses and totaled $96,000 for the years ended December
31, 2022 and 2021. Stock-based compensation of $24,000 is included in accrued expenses as other liabilities as of December
31, 2022 and 2021.
Preferred Stock
Series A Preferred Stock
The Company had designated 200,000 of the 1,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). On September 26, 2019, the Board of Directors approved and the Company
subsequently filed a Certificate of Elimination of the Series A Preferred Stock of Healthwarehouse.com, Inc. with the state of
Delaware on October 17, 2019 in order to reduce and eliminate the 200,000 authorized Preferred Shares – A Series. There were
no outstanding Series A Preferred Shares at the time of the elimination.
Series B Preferred Stock
The Company has designated 790,000 of the 1,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock as Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”). On July 16, 2019, the Board of Directors approved and the Company subsequently
filed a Certificate of Increase of Series B Preferred Stock of Healthwarehouse.com, Inc. with the state of Delaware in order to
increase in the number of authorized shares from 625,000 shares to 790,000 shares. The Series B Preferred Stock has voting
rights equal to one vote for each common share equivalent, has a liquidation preference equal to its purchase price, and receives
47
preferred dividends equal to 7% of all outstanding shares in either cash or payment-in-kind. The holders can call for the
conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock at any time and are entitled to five shares of the Company’s common stock for each
share of Series B Preferred Stock converted. MVI Partners, LLC owns a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series B
Preferred Stock. Joe Heimbrock is the managing partner of MVI Partners, LLC and serves as a director of the Company
appointed by the Series B Preferred Stock shareholders.
In addition, the Series B Preferred Stock is subject to weighted average anti-dilution protection whereby if shares of
common stock are sold below the current conversion price, the conversion price is reduced pursuant to a pre-defined formula.
As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, Series B holders were entitled to convert into 14.8 shares of the Company’s common stock
for each share of Series B Preferred Stock due to the anti-dilution provision. The anti-dilution provision represents a beneficial
conversion feature. As of December 31, 2022, an incremental 5,070,118 shares of common stock are issuable at conversion of
the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as compared to the original terms. Using the commitment date common stock price
in effect, the commitment date value of the incremental shares is $12,796,979.
However, recognition of beneficial conversion features is limited to the aggregate gross proceeds allocated to the
preferred stock of $3,199,689 (422,315 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock times $9.45 per share less the proceeds
allocated to the warrants of $791,188) less the $1,666,967 beneficial conversion feature already recognized on the original
365,265 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (prior to the issuance of additional shares as payment-in-kind in lieu of cash
dividends). Due to these limitations, no beneficial conversion feature value was recorded for the years ended December 31,
2022 and 2021. The investor rights agreement of the Company’s Series B preferred shares limits the total debt of the Company
to $1 million. The agreement also limits the ability to raise preferred equity at current market conversion rates. See Note 6 for
the waivers of the limitation of debt to April 30, 2024.
As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had accrued contractual dividends of $2,395,631 and $2,053,398,
respectively, related to the Series B Preferred Stock.
Series C Preferred Stock
The Company’s Certificate of Designation designates 10,000 shares of the Company's preferred stock as Series C
Preferred Stock to be issued at an original issue price of $100 per share. The Series C Preferred Stock has voting rights equal to
one vote for each share held, has a liquidation preference equal to its purchase price, and has certain redemption rights available
at the option of the holder. The Series C Preferred Stock is not entitled to dividends.
On October 17, 2011, the Company received net cash proceeds of $1,000,000 for the sale of 10,000 shares of Series C
Preferred Stock to a greater than 10% stockholder of the Company. The Company’s preferred shares contain redemption rights
which are not solely within the Company’s control, these issuances of preferred stock are presented as temporary equity. On
February 13, 2013, the Company received a Notice of Redemption of Series C Preferred Stock.
On October 29, 2020, the Company entered into a Conversion and Standstill Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the
holders of $1,000,000 principal amount of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock (10,000 shares). Pursuant to the terms of
the Agreement, the holders agreed (i) to retract the redemption request previously submitted in 2013 to the Company, (ii) not to
issue a redemption notice until after October 29, 2022 and (iii) to convert up to $100,000 of the Series C Preferred Stock valued
at its original issue price of $100.00 per share into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.18 per
share. In addition, the holders may elect to convert up to $200,000 of the Series C Preferred Stock valued at its original issue
price into shares of common stock of the Company each calendar quarter in 2021 and $250,000 each calendar quarter beginning
in 2022. The conversion price will be $0.18 per share through December 31, 2021 and at 80% of the thirty (30) day weighted
average closing price of a share of common stock on the OTC Market in 2022 and thereafter. The Company, at its discretion,
may initiate the conversion of the remaining outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock if the sixty (60) day weighted
average closing price exceeds $0.45 per share and the cumulative trading volume during the same 60-day period exceeds 500,000
shares. The Agreement includes other terms, including provisions relating to change of control and terms related to stock splits,
reorganizations, subsequent issuance of preferred stock and piggyback registration rights. On October 29, 2020, the Company
received notice that the holders elected to convert 1,000 of the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock with a principal amount
of $100,000 at the $0.18 conversion price into 555,557 shares of common stock to the holders and the number of outstanding
shares of Series C Preferred Stock was reduced to 9,000 shares.
48
On June 6, 2022, the Company received notice that the holders elected to convert 2,500 of the shares of the Series C
Preferred Stock with a principal amount of $250,000 at the $0.17 conversion price. The Company has subsequently issued
1,470,589 shares of common stock to the holders and the number of outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock was reduced
to 6,500 shares.
Incentive Compensation / Stock Option Plans
In 2014, the Company adopted the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) which made a total of 6,000,000
shares of common stock authorized and available for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2014 Plan.
The 2014 Plan limit imposes individual limitations on the amount of certain awards. Under these limitations during
any fiscal year of the Company, the number of options, stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock, shares of deferred
stock, performance shares and other stock-based awards granted to any one participant under the 2014 Plan may not exceed
1,500,000 shares, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The maximum number of shares that may be awarded that are
not subject to performance targets is an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares. The maximum term of each option or stock appreciation
right, the times at which each option or stock appreciation right will be exercisable, and provisions requiring forfeiture of
unexercised options or stock appreciation rights at or following termination of employment generally are fixed by the Committee
designated to administer the 2014 Plan, except that no option or stock appreciation right may have a term exceeding ten years.
The exercise price per share subject to an option and the grant price of a stock appreciation rights are determined by the
Committee, but in the case of an incentive stock option (ISO) must not be less than the fair market value of a share of common
stock on the date of grant.
Following the approval of the Board of Directors and stockholders of record as of September 1, 2021, the Company
modified certain terms of the 2014 Plan including an increase in the total of shares of common stock authorized and available
for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2014 Plan to 28,000,000.

2022 and 2021, the Company used the following weighted average assumptions:
2022
2021
Risk-free interest rate
1.59% to 4.12%
0.32% to 1.14%
Expected dividend yield
0.0%
0.0%
Expected volatility
132.0% to 175.0%
176.0% to 178.0%
Weighted average expected life
(contractual term) in years
5.0 to 6.0
5.5 to 6.0
Year Ended December 31
The expected volatility is calculated using the historical volatility of our stock using the daily closing price of our
shares. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. The expected life of our employee stock options are calculated by using the
“simplified” method, whereby, the expected life equals the average of the vesting term and the original contractual term of the
option. The risk-free interest rates were based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect during the period the options were
granted and based on a maturity similar to the expected life of the option. The stock price used on the grant date was calculated
using the 30-day weighted average closing share price on the grant date which ranged between $0.16 and $0.20 per share in
2022 and between $0.16 and $0.20 in 2021.
Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations
as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses and totaled $700,078 and $648,380 for the years ended December
31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Stock-based compensation of $40,000 is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities as
of December 31, 2022.
As of December 31, 2022, stock-based compensation expense related to stock options of $743,766 remains
unamortized which is being amortized over the weighted average remaining period of 1.7 years.

The Company assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be realized. To the extent that realization is not
likely, a valuation allowance is established. Management believes that it is more likely than not that all of the future benefits
of deferred tax assets may not be realized and has established a full valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2022
and 2021.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction and various state and local jurisdictions, and its
federal, state and local income tax returns for the tax years beginning in 2018 remain subject to examination. The Company
does not currently have any Federal or State audit examinations in process by taxing authorities. The Company is in the process
of filing its federal and state tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2022. When these returns are filed for the year ended
December 31, 2022, the Company will have $17,388,528 and $17,232,770 of federal net operating loss (NOL’s) carryforwards
that may be available to offset future taxable income as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The federal net operating
loss carryforwards generated prior to 2018, if not utilized, will expire from 2027 to 2039. The federal net operating loss
carryforwards generated in 2018 will carryforward indefinitely. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had
approximately $9,336,637 and $9,334,565 of state net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income.
The state NOLs, if not utilized, will expire beginning in 2031.
In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue code, the usage of the Company’s net operating loss
carryforwards could be limited in the event of a change in ownership. Based upon a study that analyzed the Company’s stock
ownership, a change of ownership was deemed to have occurred in 2011. This change of ownership created an annual limitation
on the usage of the Company’s losses which are available through 2031. A full Section 382 analysis has not been prepared
since 2011 and any NOLs arising since 2011 could be subject to limitation under Section 382.
For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the expected tax expense (benefit) based on the statutory rate is
