Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

ELEVAI LABS INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.Organization and nature of operations

Elevai Labs Inc. (“Elevai”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 9, 2020. Elevai and its 100% owned subsidiary, Elevai Research Inc, are collectively referred to in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as “the Company”.

The Company is a skincare development company engaged in the design, manufacture, and marketing of skincare products in the skincare industry. The Company’s principal activities are developing and manufacturing skincare products.

On April 29, 2024, Elevai Skincare Inc. (“Skincare”) and Elevai BioSciences Inc. (“BioSciences”) were incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware. Elevai is the sole shareholder of Skincare and BioSciences. The purpose of Skincare is to operate the Company’s existing business. While the purpose of BioSciences is to develop the Company’s 2 drug candidates, EL-22, a clinical stage engineered probiotic expressing myostatin, and EL-32, a preclinical engineered probiotic expressing dual myostatin and activin-A. Effective May 1, 2024, Elevai transferred its operating assets and liabilities relating to its skincare business to Skincare in exchange for common shares of Skincare.

2.Going Concern

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

As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company had a net working capital of $1,918,631 and $3,622,091, respectively, and has an accumulated deficit of $8,421,140 and $7,023,890, respectively. Furthermore, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,397,250 and $1,080,696, respectively and used $2,324,068 and $885,506, respectively of cash flows for operating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed consolidated 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 Company 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, 12 months from the date the financial statements are issued. The Company is aware that material uncertainties related to events or conditions may cast substantial doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management’s plans that alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern include raising additional debt or equity financing. 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 of Presentation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and are expressed in United States dollars. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, we have included all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the account of Elevai, and its 100% owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts, transactions and profits were eliminated in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated 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 Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition, the collectability of receivables, valuation of inventory, fair value of derivative liabilities and stock options, useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company 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 Company may differ materially and adversely from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of Elevai Research is the Canadian dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets, liabilities, and items recorded in income arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.

The accounts of Elevai Research are translated to U.S. dollars using the current rate method. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end exchange rate while revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. Related exchange gains and losses are included in a separate component of stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Intangible Asset

Intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization. They are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which reflect the period over which economic benefits are expected to be realized. Management assesses impairment indicators at each reporting period end. The estimated useful lives of intangible assets are generally as follows:

New Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

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 Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated 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 adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company assesses the adoption impacts of recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

8.Intangible assets

On January 15, 2024, (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a license agreement with a Biotechnology company to use their proprietary technology and process to assist in formulating stem cells. The term of the license is 10 years and has a purchase price of $1,000,000. The payments structure for the intangible asset is as follows:

a)$50,000 payable upon executing the license (paid)
b)$350,000 payable on July 15, 2024
c)$600,000 payable on completion of technology transfer or two years from the Effective Date, whichever comes first.

The cost of the intangible assets will be measured at $861,452, which is the fair value of the consideration payable on initial recognition, determined by discounting the future payments using a market interest rate of 11.75%. The determination of the interest rate was conducted by employing the revised discount rate utilized for assessing the lease liability, which was subsequently adjusted to reflect any alterations in the U.S. prime rate on the Effective Date.

9.Operating Lease

During 2022, the Company entered into a noncancelable operating lease that includes two property location, one which is being used as the Company’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 rd, 2023, the Company 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 Company recognized a total lease cost related to its noncancelable operating lease of $39,741 and $31,630 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The lease cost has been allocated as follows based on the square footage of each property location.

12.Derivative liabilities

On July 15, 2022, the Company issued 231,828 common stock purchase warrants with an exercise price of $2.01 as part of the conversion of promissory notes (Note 10).

On November 21, 2023, the Company completed its Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) -and issued 75,000 warrants (the “IPO warrants”). The IPO warrants are exercisable into one common share of the Company at $4 per share and expire on November 21, 2028.

We analyzed the common stock purchase warrants issued as partial settlement of the promissory notes payable and the IPO warrants against the requirements of ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and determined that the warrants should be classified as financial liabilities since the terms allows for a cashless net share settlement at the option of the holder.

ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, requires that the warrants be accounted for as derivative liabilities with initial and subsequent measurement at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as other income (expense).

A continuity of the Company’s common stock purchase derivative liability warrants is as follows:

Derivative liabilities
Outstanding, December 31, 2022$68,455
Addition of new derivatives during IPO229,437
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities71,266
Outstanding, December 31, 2023$369,158
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities(274,939)
Outstanding, March 31, 2024$94,219

We determined our derivative liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model to calculate the fair value as of initial recognition and as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023. The Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, expected time to expiration or exercise, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model:

March 31, 2024December 31, 2023November 21, 2023December 31, 2022July 15, 2022

As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the weighted average life of derivative liability warrants outstanding was 3.46 and 3.71 years, respectively.

1On April 28, 2023, the Company amended the warrant agreements for the 231,828 derivative liability warrants outstanding. The amendment removed the clause to automatically convert warrants to shares on IPO date and all warrants were given an expiry date of April 27, 2027. This led to an increase in the expected life input in the Black-Scholes model as of December 31, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, when the Company used the expected IPO date to calculate the expected life of the warrants.

The Company’s largest customer, representing $67,500 of revenue, relates to sales to a distributor during the period. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded 18% of its revenue from its largest customer. The Company’s largest customer, representing $25,500 of revenue, relates to a distributor agreement.

Suppliers

During the three months ended March 31 ,2024, and 2023, the Company had 3 key suppliers that represented approximately 66% and 3 key suppliers that represented approximately 70%, respectively of the cost incurred in the purchase and production of inventory.

Supplier 133%41%
Supplier 218%18%
Supplier 315%11%
66%70%
