Intangible assets, consisting of software licenses and technology licenses, are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 5 years, less any impairment charges. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $52,363 and $0, respectively.

Current wording

Intangible assets, consisting of software licenses and technology licenses, are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 5 years, less any impairment charges. We test intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is determined by comparing the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group to their carrying amount. If the carrying value of the assets exceeds their estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment loss would be determined as the difference between the fair value of the assets and its carrying value. Typically, the fair value of the assets would be determined using a discounted cash flow model which would be sensitive to judgments of what constitutes an asset group and certain assumptions such as estimated future financial performance, discount rates, and other assumptions that marketplace participants would use in their estimates of fair value. There have been no material changes in the underlying assumptions and estimates used in these calculations in the relevant period. The accounting estimate related to asset impairments is highly susceptible to change from period to period because it requires management to make assumptions about the existence of impairment indicators and cash flows over future years. These assumptions impact the amount of an impairment, which could materially adversely impact the consolidated statements of operations.

Previous wording

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 –“Compensation–Stock Compensation”, which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, non-employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur.

Current wording

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 –“Compensation–Stock Compensation”, which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, non-employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. We recognize compensation costs resulting from the issuance of stock-based awards to employees, non-employees, and directors as an expense in the statements of operations over the requisite service period based on a measurement of fair value for each stock-based award. The fair value of each option granted is estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, net of actual forfeitures. The fair value is amortized as compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. The Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model includes various assumptions, including the fair market value of our common stock, expected life of stock options, the expected volatility, and the expected risk-free interest rate, among others. These assumptions reflect our best estimates, but they involve inherent uncertainties based on market conditions generally outside of our control. As a result, if other assumptions had been used, stock-based compensation expense, as determined in accordance with authoritative guidance, could have been materially impacted. Furthermore, if we use different assumptions on future grants, stock-based compensation expense could be materially affected in future periods.

Previous wording

Health coaching packages consist of a series of lab tests and personal health coaching sessions. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we generated revenue of $256. Once we achieve a critical mass of users, we plan to offer new features and to charge fees in order to generate revenues from these added features.

Previous wording

Our ultimate success is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing and generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis. We will require significant amounts of capital to sustain operations, and we will need to make the investments we need to execute our longer-term business plan to support new technologies and help advance innovation. Absent generation of sufficient revenue from the execution of our long-term business plan, we will need to obtain debt or equity financing, especially if we experience downturns in our business that are more severe or longer than anticipated, or if we experience significant increases in expense levels resulting from being a publicly-traded company or from operations. Such additional debt or equity financing may not be available to us on favorable terms, if at all. We plan to pursue our plans with respect to the research and development of our products which will require resources beyond those that we currently have, ultimately requiring additional capital from third party sources. However, we believe the net proceeds received in the IPO that closed in February 2023 will be sufficient to meet our financial obligations for at least the next 12 months.
