Organization and Nature of Operations

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. Immediately after completion of the Merger, we changed our name to “Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc.”

Principles of consolidation

Principles of consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emmaus and its direct and indirect consolidated 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.

Factoring accounts receivables

Factoring accounts receivables — The Company entered into a factoring agreement with Prestige Capital Finance, LLC on February 22, 2021. Under the agreement, the Company may factor its accounts receivables of up to 70% of the face value with maximum outstanding balance of $7.5 million and the fee ranges between 2.25% and 7.25% depending on the period when customers pay the outstanding accounts receivables. The Company had no factoring accounts receivables outstanding as of March 31, 2021. For three month ended March 31, 2021, the Company incurred approximately $31,000 of factoring fees.

Net loss per share

Net loss per share — In accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Dilutive loss per share is computed in a manner similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. As of March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, the Company had outstanding potentially dilutive securities exercisable for or convertible into 24,515,738 shares and 16,698,829 shares, respectively, of the Company’s common stock. No potentially dilutive securities were included in the calculation of diluted net income per share since the potential dilutive securities were out of the money for the period ended March 31, 2020 and were anti-dilutive for period ended March 31, 2021.
