BASIS OF PRESENTATION

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc., (“Emmaus”) and its direct and indirect consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “our,” “us” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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 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, 2020 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020 contained in the Form 10-K/A. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021, 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. Immediately after completion of the Merger, we changed our name to “Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc.”

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.
