Independent Auditor’s Report

To Board of Directors and Stockholders of Skincare Business

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Skincare Business, which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, and the related statement of operations and net investment and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Skincare Business as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Skincare Business will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 2 of the financial statements, the Skincare Business has suffered recurring losses from operations and has cash flows used in operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of Skincare Business and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Other Matter

The financial statements of Skincare Business for the year ended December 31, 2023, were carved out from PMGC Impasse Corp. a wholly owned subsidiary of PMGC Holdings Inc. (formerly Elevai Labs Inc.).

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Skincare


Business ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Skincare Business’ internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Skincare Business’ ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audits.

Skincare Business

(A business of PMGC Holdings Inc.) Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended December 31, 2023

(Expressed in United States dollars)

1.
Organization and nature of operations

The accompanying carve-out financial statements include the historical accounts of Skincare Business (referred to as “Skincare” or the “Business”), part of PMGC Holdings Inc. (formerly Elevai Labs Inc.) (“PMGC” or the “Parent”).

The Business was part of PMGC, and is engaged in the design, development, manufacture, and distribution of medical-grade skincare products with a focus on exosome-based regenerative skincare solutions.

The Parent was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 9, 2020, and conducted the Business prior to a reorganization during 2024. The reorganization included a name change and redomiciling of the Parent from Delaware to Nevada. As part of the reorganization, on April 29, 2024, PMGC Impasse Corp (formerly Elevai Skincare Inc.) (“Impasse”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware to operate PMGC’s skincare business. Effective May 1, 2024, PMGC transferred its operating assets and liabilities relating to its skincare business to Impasse in exchange for common stock of Impasse, and is the sole shareholder of Impasse. On December 31, 2024, PMGC and Impasse, entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Carmell Corporation (“Carmell”), an unrelated third party, pursuant to which it was agreed to sell the skincare business. The sale of the Business closed on January 16, 2025.

2.
Going Concern

These audited financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Business will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Business as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its owners and the ability of the Business to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and ultimately the attainment of profitable operations.

As of December 31, 2023, the Business had a net working capital deficit of $29,586. Furthermore, for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Business incurred a net loss of $2,644,778 and used $2,441,940 of cash flows for operating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Business’s ability to continue as a going concern. These audited financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Business be unable to continue as a going concern.

The assessment of whether the going concern assumption is appropriate requires management to take into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, twelve months from the date the financial statements are issued. The Business is aware that material uncertainties related to events or conditions may cast substantial doubt upon the Business’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management’s plans that alleviate substantial doubt about the Business’s ability to continue as a going concern include the sale of the Business. Although the Company has been successful in raising funds in the past, and expects to do so in the future, there are no guarantees that it will be able to raise funds as anticipated.

3.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis ofPresentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of PMGC using the historical results of operations and historical cost basis of the assets and the liabilities of PMGC that comprise Skincare. Skincare has, until May 1, 2024, historically operated as part of PMGC, consequently stand-alone financial statements have not historically been prepared for Skincare. The accompanying financial statements have been derived from PMGC’s consolidated financial statements and historical accounting records and are presented on a stand-alone basis as if the Business’s operations had been conducted independently from PMGC. These financial statements have been prepared on a “carve-out” basis, reflecting PMGC’s net investment in the Business, and are expressed in U.S. dollars.

The operations comprising Skincare are predominantly held in PMGC until May 1, 2024. Effective May 1, 2024, the operations comprising Skincare are predominantly held in Impasse. References herein to Skincare refers to the assets,


liabilities that are primarily related to the operating activities to the business of Skincare. The financial statements have been derived from PMGC’s and Impasse’s historical accounting records.

The statement of operations include revenue and costs directly attributable to Skincare. Costs include all costs for facilities, direct staff, and any related services used by the Business. Costs for certain functions and services performed by PMGC’s centralized organizations, such as corporate administration and support, are directly charged to the business, based on specific identification when possible, or reasonable allocation methods, such as usage or other specific allocation methods where appropriate. The allocated costs are deemed to be settled by Skincare to the Parent in the period in which the expense was recorded in the statement of operations. The net effect of the deemed settled transactions is reflected in the statement of cash flows as net transfers from PMGC within financing activities and in the balance sheet as Net investment by PMGC.

The Financial Statements of the Business include assets and liabilities that have been determined to be specifically identifiable or otherwise attributable to the Business.

All of the allocations and estimates in the financial statements are based on assumptions that management believes are reasonable. However, the financial information included herein may not be indicative of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Business in the future, or what they would have been had the Business been a separate, stand-alone entity during the year presented.

This summary of the significant accounting policies of the Business is presented to assist in understanding the Business's financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Net Investment by Parent

The Business’s equity on the Balance Sheet represents our Parent’s historical net investment in the Business and is presented as “net investment by parent” in lieu of stockholders’ equity. The Statements of Net Parent Investment include net cash transfers and other property transfers between our Parent and the Business. All transactions reflected in net investment by Parent in the accompanying the Balance Sheet have been considered cash receipts and payments for purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows and are reflected as financing activities in the accompanying Statement of Cash Flows.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Business regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition, the collectability of receivables, valuation of inventory, useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets. In addition, the Business also used significant estimates made by management in carve-out allocation methodologies. The Business bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgements about the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Business may differ materially and adversely from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period they are determined.

Reportable Segments and Geographic Areas

The Business operates as a single operating segment, focused on the development, marketing, and sale of skincare products. The Business’s chief operating decision maker reviews financial performance and allocates resources on an entity-wide basis. As such, no separate segment information is presented in these financial statements in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting.

All of the Business’s operations, assets and liabilities are located in the UnitedStates.


During 2023, the Business started exporting products to international markets. Following is a breakdown of the sales per geographical area:

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Since ASU 2014-09 was issued, several additional ASUs have been issued to clarify various elements of the guidance. These standards provide guidance on recognizing revenue, including a five-step model to determine when revenue recognition is appropriate.

The Business recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration the Business expects to receive in exchange for those products. In instances where financial acceptance of the product is specified by the customer, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. Revenues are recognized under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its products and services to customers in return for expected consideration.

The Business generates revenue through the sale of skincare products. Revenue from the sale of skincare products are recognized at the point in time when the Business considered revenue realized or realizable and earned, which is typically when all of the five following criteria are met: (1) the contract with the customer is identifiable (i.e. when a sales transaction has been entered into between the Business and the customer),

(2) the performance obligation in the contract is identifiable (i.e. the customer has ordered a known quantity of product to be delivered), (3) the transaction price is determinable (i.e. the customer has agreed to the Business’s price for the products ordered), (4) the Business is able to allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) the performance obligations have been satisfied, which is typically upon delivery of the product to the customer.

Transaction prices for performance obligations are explicitly outlined in relevant agreements; therefore, the Business does not believe that significant judgements are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including any variable consideration identified.

The Business is responsible for providing the products to customers. As a result, the Business is considered the Principal when providing products to customers. As the Business collects payment at the time of the customer order, its contracts do not have a significant financing component. Customers are entitled to replacement or full refund of any damaged or defective product, after the return of the damaged or defective product to the Business. There were no significant returns or refunds during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred in accordance with ASC 730, Research and Development. The Business incurs research and development costs in the pursuit of new products and improving the formulation of existing products. Examples of research costs include laboratory research, studies, surveys, and other activities aimed at acquiring new knowledge. Development costs include expenses incurred in the process of applying research findings or other knowledge to a plan or design for a new product or process. Examples of development costs include engineering, design, testing, and other activities aimed at developing a product or process for commercial production.

Development costs may be capitalized if the following criteria are met: (1) technological feasibility has been established, (2) the Business intends to complete the product or process. (3) the Business has the ability to use or sell the product or process, (4) the product or process will generate future economic benefits, and (5) the costs can be reliably measured.

As of December 31, 2023, the Business has not capitalized any development cost.

 

Marketing and promotion

 

Costs associated with marketing and promoting the Business’s products are expensed when incurred. The Business includes the cost of products given out as samples in marketing and promotion expenses.

Leases

The Business accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, “Leases”. We determine if an arrangement meets the definition of a lease at inception of the contract. Leases are classified as either operating or finance leases. All of the


Business’s leases have been assessed as operating leases. Accounting for operating leases, other than short term leases, results in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, operating lease liabilities

- current, and operating lease liabilities - noncurrent on the balance sheets.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As our lease do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Income Taxes

The results of operations have historically been included in the income tax returns of PMGC. Income taxes as presented in the Financial Statements attribute current and deferred income taxes of PMGC to the stand- alone financial statements of Skincare in a manner that is systematic, rational and consistent with the asset and liability method prescribed by ASC 740. Accordingly, the income tax provision of Skincare was prepared following the separate return method. The separate return method applies ASC 740 to the stand-alone financial statements of each member of the consolidated group as if the group members were a separate taxpayer and a stand-alone enterprise. The calculation of our income taxes on a separate return basis requires a considerable amount of judgment and use of both estimates and allocations. As a result, actual transactions included in the consolidated financial statements of PMGC may not be included in the separate financial statements of Skincare. Similarly, the tax treatment of certain items reflected in the financial statements of Skincare may not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements and tax returns of PMGC. Further, the Business’s income tax results as presented in these financial statements may not necessarily be reflective of the result of the Business in the future. Management believes the assumptions underlying the allocation of income taxes in these Financial Statements are reasonable. However, income tax results may not necessarily reflect the results had the Business been a separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

The Business accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequence of temporary differences between the financial reporting and taxes basis of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Business records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount that it believes more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Business considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income tax planning, strategies and results of recent operations. If the Business determines that such deferred tax assets will be recognized in the future in excess of the net recorded amount then the deferred tax asset valuation will be adjusted which would reduce the provision for income taxes. Significant judgments and estimates are required in the determination of the consolidated income tax expense. As of December 31, 2023, the Business did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to tax assets or liabilities as the Business has incurred losses since inception and has taken a full valuation allowance against its tax loss carry forwards. In addition, the Business did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to tax expense or recovery.

The Business records uncertain tax provisions in accordance with ASC 740 based on a two-step process whereby (1) a determination is made about whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, the Business recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

As of December 31, 2023, the Business did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions. The Business recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in office and administrative expense. The Business did not incur any penalties or interest during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Receivables and refundable deposits are the only financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk. Receivables relate to timing differences on receiving proceeds from sales transactions processed through customer credit cards. Refundable deposits relate to the Business’s security deposit on lease agreements.


Risks andUncertainties

The Business is subject to risks from, among other things, competition associated with the industry in general, regulatory environment, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history and the volatility of public markets.

Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Business, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Business’s management and legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves judgement. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Business or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Business’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Business’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.

Receivables

All receivables under standard terms are due thirty (30) days from the date billed. If the funds are not received within thirty (30) days, the customer is contacted to arrange payment. The Business uses the allowance for credit losses method to account for uncollectable receivables. As of December 31, 2023, there was no allowance for credit losses related to receivables recorded.

Inventory

Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods and are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Business’s manufacturing process involves the production of our proprietary stem cell-derived Elevai ExosomesTM. Finished goods consists of a new generation of cosmetic topical products containing our proprietary stem cell-derived Elevai ExosomesTM. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost formula. Net realizable value is determined on the basis of anticipated sales proceeds less the estimated selling expenses. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made to write down inventories to net realizable value, if lower.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of assets are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Property and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are generally as follows:

Lab equipment 7-year straight-line
Furniture and fixtures 7-year straight-line

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Business reviews long-lived assets such as equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, a loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset.


The Business’s policy for property and equipment requires judgement in determining whether the present value of future expected economic benefits exceeds capitalized costs. The policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future economic benefits related to its operations. Estimates and assumptions may change if new information becomes available. If information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of capitalized cost is


unlikely, the capitalized cost is written off/impaired to the statement of operations.

Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

The Business analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”.

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Business. ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to asset or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Business’s financial instruments consist of receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Business’s financial instruments’ carrying amounts, excluding unamortized discounts, approximate their fair values due to their short term to maturity.

Share-Based Compensation

Employees - The Business accounts for share-based compensation under the fair value method which requires all such compensation to employees, including the grant of employee stock options, to be calculated based on its fair value at the measurement date (generally the grant date), and recognized in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

Nonemployees - During June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”) to simplify the accounting for share- based payments to nonemployees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees. Under the requirements of ASU 2018-07, the Business accounts for share-based compensation to non- employees under the fair value method which requires all such compensation to be calculated based on the fair value at the measurement date (generally the grant date), and recognized in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

The Business has no share-based compensation plans, however certain employees of the Business participate in the Parent’s share-based compensation plans, which provide for the grants of stock options. PMGC uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of substantially all stock options granted to employees, and recorded share-based compensation expense in office and administrative, and research and development expenses in the accompanying statement of operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Business recorded $237,674, in share-based compensation expense, of which $226,842 and $10,832, respectively is included in office and administration and research and development, respectively.

The expected volatility represents the historical volatility of comparable publicly traded companies in similar industries, adjusted for variables such as stock price, market capitalization and life cycle. Due to limited historical data, the expected term for options granted is equal to the contractual life. The risk-free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of stock options. PMGC has not paid and does not anticipate paying cash


dividends on its shares of common stock; therefore, the expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero.

Parent Company Investment

Parent company investment in the balance sheet represents PMGC’s historical investment in the Business, the accumulated net losses after taxes, and the net effect of the transactions with and allocations from PMGC. See the Basis of Presentation section above and Note 11 – Related Party Transactions for additional information.

New Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, ASC Subtopic 470-20 “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options” and ASC subtopic 815-40 “Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. The standard reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting; and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Business’s financial statements.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, ASC Subtopic 326 “Credit Losses”: Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. Since the issuance of Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, the Board has provided resources to monitor and assist stakeholders with the implementation of Topic 326. Post-Implementation Review (PIR) activities have included forming a Credit Losses Transition Resource Group, conducting outreach with stakeholders of all types, developing educational materials and staff question-and-answer guidance, conducting educational workshops, and performing an archival review of financial reports. ASU No. 2022-02 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Business’s financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Business assesses the adoption impacts of recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on the Business 's financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, ASC Subtopic 820 “Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions”. The FASB is issuing this Update (1) to clarify the guidance in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual restrictions that prohibit the sale of an equity security, (2) to amend a related illustrative example, and (3) to introduce new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820.

Stakeholders asserted that the language in the illustrative example resulted in diversity in practice on whether the effects of a contractual restriction that prohibits the sale of an equity security should be considered in measuring that equity security’s fair value. Some stakeholders apply a discount to the price of an equity security subject to a contractual sale restriction, whereas other stakeholders consider the application of a discount to be inappropriate under the principles of Topic 820.

For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

The Business does not expect the standard to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"), intended to improve reportable segments disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses.

ASU 2023-07 includes a requirement to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, the title and position of the CODM, an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, and all segments' profit or loss and assets disclosures. ASU 2023-07 is effective for all public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and


interim periods for the interim period beginning on January 1, 2025. Adoption of ASU 2023-07 is not expected to have a material impact on the Business’s financial statements.

Operating Lease

During 2022, the Business entered into a non-cancelable operating lease that includes two property locations, one which is being used as the Business’s office and the other as its lab for research and development and the production of inventory. The lease had a commencement date of June 1, 2022, and expires on May 31, 2025, after which the term will continue on a month-to-month basis.

On July 3, 2023, the Business amended the terms of the previously entered lease agreement to lease additional office space from the lessor. Rent increased from $10,773 to $13,477 per month commencing July 1, 2023, through May 31, 2025. The lease amendment required a remeasurement of the lease liability which resulted in an increase of $47,986 to the lease liability and an equal increase in the right of use asset as of July 1, 2023.

The Business recognized a total lease cost related to its noncancelable operating lease of $142,741 for the year ended December 31, 2023. The lease cost has been allocated as follows based on the square footage of each property location.

Share-based compensation

Certain employees of the Business participate in the share-based compensation plan sponsored by Parent. Under this plan, eligible employees of the Business receive stock options that are settled in shares of the Parent. As the Business does not have its own stock-based compensation plan, the stock awards were granted under Parent’s equity plan, and the Business does not issue its own equity instruments.

Compensation related to these share-based awards is recognized over the vesting period in the statement of operations, with a corresponding credit recorded as an increase to "Net Investment by Parent", rather than additional paid-in capital, in the statement of net investment by parent.

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of revenue and expense. In evaluating the ability to recover the deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, the Business considered all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial operations. In projecting future taxable income, the Business began with historical results adjusted for changes in accounting policies and incorporates assumptions including the amount of future pretax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgement about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates the Business is using to manage the underlying businesses. In evaluating objective evidence that historical results provide, the Business consider three years of cumulative operating income (loss).

13.
Commitments and Contingencies

The Business has no material commitments as of December 31, 2023, other than the operating lease described in Note 8.

Upon the Business’s initial registration of cosmetic products with Health Canada in 2022, the Canadian health ministry confirmed that the ingredients contained in the cosmetic products were permitted for use in cosmetics in Canada, and our cosmetic products as sold were compliant with any applicable requirements of the Food and Drugs Act (Canada) and Cosmetic Regulations pursuant to the Food and Drugs Act (Canada) with respect to all ingredients and composition, including that none of the ingredients contained therein were named on the Cosmetic Ingredient Hotlist (as published by Health Canada).


Health Canada is responsible for regulation of the sale of cosmetics under the Food and Drugs Act and Cosmetic Regulations, including the interpretation of what may be represented on labels and in promotional materials regarding the claimed properties of cosmetic products. The Business markets its products in Canada as cosmetics under the Food and Drugs Act, having submitted cosmetic notifications to Health Canada for both products as required by the Cosmetic Regulations. There is no pre-market approval required from Health Canada to market a cosmetic in Canada. In March 2024, The Business received correspondence from Health Canada, advising that Health Canada had reviewed certain undisclosed information about the Business’s products. Health Canada advised that based on this review, the products did not meet Health Canada’s interpretation of the conditions required to market a cosmetic in Canada. In response to Health Canada’s communication, The Business has engaged Health Canada to obtain clarity about the review and how the products can be marked in Canada.

Depending on the outcome of the Business’s engagement with Health Canada, the Business’s products could be subject to additional regulatory requirements in order to be advertised or sold in Canada. Prior to receiving the March 2024 notice, our distribution agreement partner’s sales in Canada contributed $158,603 to our total revenue of $1,712,595, representing about 9.26% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023. As of March 18, 2024, the Company has voluntarily stopped sale of its products in Canada. On April 30, 2024, the Business's appointed Canadian distributor, Evolve Medical Inc., terminated the existing distribution agreement.

14.
Concentration

Customers

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Business recorded 34% of its revenue from its 3 largest customers. The Business’s largest customer, representing $234,800 of revenue, relates to sales to a wholesaler during the period. The Business’s largest customer, representing $344,018 of revenue, relates to a white label distributor agreement signed during the year.

As of December 31, 2023, the Business had $49 receivables due from these customers and $7,500 in customer deposits were received from its largest customer.

The Business expects its dependence on these major customers to decrease over time as it enters into additional distributor agreements and builds out its sales team.

Suppliers

During the year end December 31, 2023, the Business had 3 key suppliers that represented approximately 73% of the cost incurred in the purchase and production of inventory. The table below represents a breakdown of each supplier as a percentage of the cost incurred (Suppliers are shown from largest to smallest and does not necessarily represent the same suppliers period over period):

December 31,2023

Supplier 1

32%

Supplier2

29%

Supplier 3

73%

The Business continually evaluates the performance of its suppliers and the availability of alternatives to substitute or supplement its inventory production supply chain. The Business believes that a breakdown in supply from one of its key suppliers would be overcome in a short amount of time given the availability of alternatives.

15.
Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated events subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2023, up to March 29, 2025, for transactions and other events that may require adjustment of and/or disclosure in the financial statements.

From January 2 to February 13, 2024, PMGC issued to two employees of the Business 9 stock options to purchase common stock of PMGC at an exercise price equal to $7,000.00 per share that mature in 10 years.

On March 6, 2024, Health Canada notified the Business that it has classified the Business’s products as a drug. On April 30, 2024, the Business's appointed Canadian distributor, Evolve Medical Inc., terminated the existing distribution agreement.


On November 27, 2024, PMGC completed a reverse stock split on a ratio of two hundred old common shares for every one new post reverse split common share. In addition, on March 10, 2025, PMGC completed a second reverse stock split on a ratio of seven common shares for every one new post second reverse split common share. All references to the number of options (Note 10) have been retrospectively adjusted to give effect to these reverse stock splits. On a combined basis, this reflects retrospectively a reverse stock split of 1-for-1,400.

On December 31, 2024, PMGC and Impasse entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Cutis Cura Corporation (the “Buyer”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Carmell Corporation, to sell substantially all its assets, including intellectual property, trademarks, inventory, fixed assets, customer relationships, and assigned contracts, while retaining cash, accounts receivable, tax assets, and other excluded assets. In exchange, PMGC received common stock valued at $1,075,463 (with a $100,000 indemnification holdback for 12 months), a cash payment of $56,525 contingent on the sale of certain inventory, and future earnout payments based on net sales performance. The Buyer also assumed certain trade payables and contractual obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business. The sale of the Business closed on January 16, 2025.
