BASIS OF PRESENTATION

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc. (formerly, “MYnd Analytics, Inc.”) and its direct and indirect consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company” or “Emmaus”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements contain adjustments, including normal recurring accruals necessary to fairly state the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “Annual Report”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 10, 2021. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019 contained in the Form 10-K/A. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future interim period.

Organization and Nature of Operations

The Company is a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development, marketing and sales of innovative treatments and therapies primarily for rare and orphan diseases. On July 17, 2019, we completed a merger transaction with EMI Holding, Inc., formerly known as Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc. (“EMI”), into a subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”), with EMI surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Immediately after completion of the Merger, we changed our name to “Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc.”

The Merger was treated as a reverse recapitalization under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. For accounting purposed, EMI was considered to have acquired us. The Merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

In connection with and prior to the Merger, we contributed and transferred to Telemynd, Inc. (“Telemynd”), a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, all or substantially all our historical business, assets and liabilities and our board of directors declared a stock dividend of one share of the Telemynd common stock held by the Company for each outstanding share of our common stock after giving effect to a 1-for-6 reverse stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock.

As a result of the spin-off and the Merger, our ongoing business became EMI’s business, which is that of a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development, marketing and sale of innovative treatments and therapies, including those in the rare and orphan disease categories.

Principles of consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, EMI and EMI’s wholly‑owned subsidiary, Emmaus Medical, Inc., and Emmaus Medical, Inc.’s wholly‑owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of management estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reported period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Reclassification of prior year presentation—Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period amounts to confirm with the current year presentation.
