Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024

Note 1 –Description of Business

The Company was incorporated under the name Mountain West Business Solutions, Inc. on August 31, 2006, in the State of Colorado. Effective October 15, 2009, the Company acquired Sunshine Biopharma Inc. in a transaction classified as a reverse acquisition. Upon completion of the reverse acquisition, the Company changed its name to Sunshine Biopharma Inc. and began operating as a pharmaceutical company.

Sunshine Biopharma has two wholly owned subsidiaries: (i) Nora Pharma Inc. (“Nora Pharma”), a Canadian corporation through which we currently have 70 generic prescription drugs on the market in Canada, and (ii) Sunshine Biopharma Canada Inc. (“Sunshine Canada”), a Canadian corporation through which we develop and sell nonprescription over-the-counter (“OTC”) supplements. The Company operates the two subsidiaries as a single business segment.

The Company is not subject to material customer concentration risks as it sells its products directly to pharmacies in several Canadian Provinces. However, Provincial governments in Canada reimburse patients for their prescription drug expenditures to various degrees under drug reimbursement programs, making generic drugs prices highly dependent on governmental policies which may change over time. The most recent negotiations between the pan-Canadian Pharmaceutical Alliance (“pCPA”) and the Canadian Generic Pharmaceutical Association resulted in updated generic pricing for certain products which took effect on October 1, 2023. The updated prices are valid for three years and the agreement contains an option to extend for an additional two years. On February 10, 2024, the Canadian federal government joined the generic drug reimbursement program as a payor under the Pharmacare Act. This development further strengthened the Canadian generic drug market, which is the Company’s current focus.

In addition, the Company is engaged in the development of the following proprietary drugs:

·K1.1 mRNA, a lipid nano-particle (LNP) targeted for liver cancer
·SBFM-PL4, a protease inhibitor for treatment of SARS Coronavirus infections

Note 2 –Basis of Presentation

The unaudited financial statements of the Company for the three months periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year. The balance sheet information as of December 31, 2024, was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company's financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 1, 2025. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.

Note 3 –Reverse Stock Splits

Effective April 17, 2024 and August 8, 2024, the Company completed 1-for-100 and 1-for-20 reverse splits of its common stock, respectively. The Company had previously completed three (3) reverse stock splits including a 1-for-200 reverse split on February 9, 2022, and two 1-for-20 reverse splits, one in 2019 and the other in 2020. The Company’s financial statements included in this report reflect all five (5) reverse stock splits on a retroactive basis for all periods presented and for all references to common stock, unless specifically stated otherwise.

Note 4 –Acquisition of Nora Pharma Inc.

On October 20, 2022, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Nora Pharma Inc. (“Nora Pharma”), a Canadian privately held pharmaceutical company. The purchase price for the shares was $18,860,637 which was paid in cash ($14,346,637) and by the issuance of 1,850 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $4,514,000 or $2,440.00 per share. Nora Pharma sells generic pharmaceutical products in Canada. Nora Pharma’s operations are authorized by a Drug Establishment License issued by Health Canada.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price as of October 20, 2022, the acquisition date using Nora Pharma’s balance sheet assets and liabilities:

The value of the 1,850 common shares issued as part of the consideration paid for Nora Pharma was determined based on the closing market price of the Company’s common shares on the acquisition date, October 20, 2022 ($2,440.00 per share).

As part of the consideration for Nora Pharma, the Company agreed to a $5,000,000 CAD ($3,632,000 USD) earnout amount payable to Mr. Malek Chamoun, the seller of Nora Pharma. The earnout is payable in the form of twenty (20) payments of $250,000 CAD for every $1,000,000 CAD increase in gross sales (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) above Nora Pharma’s June 30, 2022 gross sales, provided that his employment with the Company is not terminated pursuant to the Company’s employment agreement with him. The total earnout amount of $3,632,000 has been recorded as a salary payable. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, the Company paid an earnout amount of $1,426,914 CAD (approximately $1,036,500 USD) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Note 8 –Leases

The Company has obligations as a lessee for warehouse and office space with initial non-cancellable terms in excess of one year. The Company classified the lease as an operating lease. The lease contains a renewal option for a period of five years. Because the Company is certain to exercise the renewal option, the optional period is included in determining the lease term, and associated payments under the renewal option are included in the lease payments. The Company’s lease does not include termination options for either party to the lease or restrictive financial or other covenants. Payments due under the lease contract include fixed payments plus a variable payment. The Company’s office space lease requires it to make variable payments for the Company’s proportionate share of building’s property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance. These variable lease payments are not included in lease payments used to determine lease liability and are recognized as variable costs when incurred.

Amounts reported on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 were as follows:

Schedule of lease information
Operating lease ROU asset900,890
Operating Lease liability - Short-term213,983
Operating lease liability - Long-term722,199
Remaining lease term4 Years 9 Months
Discount rate6%

Amounts disclosed for ROU assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations and reductions of ROU assets resulting from reductions of lease obligations include amounts reduced from the carrying amount of ROU assets resulting from deferred rent.

2027$203,930

2029$175,144
Thereafter$14,166

Note 9 –Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax (expense) / benefit of $40,161 and $22,353 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively, is primarily due to operations outside of the United States and changes in valuation allowance related to certain deferred tax assets generated or utilized in the applicable period.

Deferred tax assets are regularly reviewed for recoverability by jurisdiction and valuation allowances are established based on historical and projected future taxable losses and the expected timing of the reversal of existing temporary differences. The Company has recorded valuation allowances against the majority of its deferred tax assets of March 31, 2025, and the Company expects to maintain these valuation allowances until there is sufficient evidence that future earnings can be achieved, which is uncertain at this time.

The Company's consolidated financial statements contain various tax related entries as a result of operations of the two Canadian subsidiaries and are in compliance with Canadian tax laws.

The Company only recognizes tax benefits from an uncertain tax position if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statement from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. To date, the Company has not recognized such tax benefits in its financial statements.

Note 10 –Management and Director Compensation

The Company paid its officers aggregate cash compensation of $269,496 and $262,486 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 12 –Warrants

The Company accounts for issued warrants either as a liability or equity in accordance with ASC 480-10 or ASC 815-40. Under ASC 480-10, warrants are considered a liability if they are mandatorily redeemable and they require settlement in cash, other assets, or a variable number of shares. If warrants do not meet liability classification under ASC 480-10, the Company considers the requirements of ASC 815-40 to determine whether the warrants should be classified as a liability or as equity. Under ASC 815-40, contracts that may require settlement for cash are liabilities, regardless of the probability of the occurrence of the triggering event. Liability-classified warrants are measured at fair value on the issuance date and at the end of each reporting period. Any change in the fair value of the warrants after the issuance date is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a gain or loss. If warrants do not require liability classification under ASC 815-40, in order to conclude warrants should be classified as equity, the Company assesses whether the warrants are indexed to its common stock and whether the warrants are classified as equity under ASC 815-40 or other applicable GAAP standard. Equity-classified warrants are accounted for at fair value on the issuance date with no changes in fair value recognized after the issuance date.

In 2022, 2023, and 2024, the Company completed five (5) financing events, and in connection therewith, it issued warrants as follows:
