Note 1: Background
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of JanOne Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company” or “JanOne”).
The Company had three operating segments – Biotechnology, Recycling, and Technology. In connection with the sale of GeoTraq, Inc. (“GeoTraq”) and the sale of ARCA Recycling, Inc. (“ARCA Recycling”) (see Note 18), the accounts for the Recycling and Technology segments have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements (see Note 3).
Biotechnology
During September 2019, JanOne, through its biotechnology segment, broadened its business perspectives to become a pharmaceutical company focused on finding treatments for conditions that cause severe pain and bringing to market drugs with non-addictive pain-relieving properties. Effective December 28, 2022, the Company acquired Soin Therapeutics LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“STLLC”), and its product, a patent-pending, novel formulation of low-dose naltrexone, (“JAN123”). The product is being developed for the treatment of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), an indication that causes severe, chronic pain generally affecting the arms or legs. At present, there are no truly effective treatments for CRPS. Because of the relatively small number of patients afflicted with CRPS, the FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation for any product approved for treatment of CRPS. This designation will provide the Company with tax credits for its clinical trials, exemption of user fees, and the potential of seven years of market exclusivity following approval. In addition, development of orphan drugs currently also involves smaller trials and quicker times to approval, given the limited number of patients available to study. However, there can be no assurance that the product will receive FDA approval or that it will result in material sales.
Recycling
ARCA Recycling was the Company’s Recycling segment and provides turnkey recycling services for electric utility energy efficiency programs in the United States. ARCA Canada Inc. (“ARCA Canada”) provides turnkey recycling services for electric utility energy efficiency programs in Canada. Customer Connexx, LLC (“Connexx”) provides call center services for ARCA Recycling and ARCA Canada. On March 9, 2023, retroactive to March 1, 2023, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with VM7 Corporation, a Delaware corporation, under which the Buyer agreed to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of (a) ARCA Recycling, Inc., a California corporation, (b) Customer Connexx LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and (c) ARCA Canada Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Ontario, Canada (“ARCA Canada”; and, together with ARCA and Connexx, the “Subsidiaries”). The principal of the Buyer is Virland A. Johnson, our Chief Financial Officer. The sale of all of the outstanding equity interests of the Subsidiaries to the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement was consummated simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement (see Note 17). The Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the Purchase Agreement and the Disposition Transaction. In connection with the disposition of ARCA Recycling, accounts for the Recycling segment have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements (see Note 3).
Technology
GeoTraq Inc. (“GeoTraq”) was the Company’s Technology segment. On May 24, 2022, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with SPYR Technologies Inc., pursuant to which the Company sold to SPYR substantially all the assets and none of the liabilities of its wholly-owned subsidiary GeoTraq Inc. The aggregate purchase price for the GeoTraq Assets was $13.5 million, payable in cash and shares of SPYR’s common stock. As of the closing of the transaction on May 24, 2022, SPYR issued to the Company 30,000,000 shares of its common stock at $0.03 per share, and delivered a five-year Promissory Note in the principal amount of $12.6 million. The Promissory Note bears simple interest at the rate of 8% per annum, provides quarterly interest payments due the first day of each calendar quarter, and may be prepaid at any time without penalty. Quarterly interest payments may be made in cash or in SPYR’s restricted common stock. The Promissory Note matures on May 23, 2027.
The Company reports on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year. The Company’s 2022 fiscal year (“2022”) ended on December 31, 2022, and the current fiscal year (“2023”) will end on December 30, 2023.

Going concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, however, the issues described below raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so.
The Company currently faces a challenging competitive environment and is focused on improving its overall profitability, which includes managing expenses. The Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $754,000 for the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023. Additionally, as of September 30, 2023, the Company has total current assets of approximately $517,000 and total current liabilities of approximately $2.5 million resulting in a net negative working capital of approximately $1.9 million. Cash used in operations from continuing operations was approximately $500,000. Additionally, stockholders’ equity, as of September 30, 2023, is approximately $14.5 million.
The Company intends to fund operations by using cash on hand and monthly receipts in connection with the sale of its Subsidiaries (see Note 18) and funds received from approved Employee Retention Credits (“ERC’s”). The Company intends to raise funds to support future development of JAN 123 and JAN 101 either through capital raises or structured arrangements. However, the availability of such funding cannot be assured.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the success of future capital raises or structured settlements to fund the required testing to obtain FDA approval of JAN 123 and JAN 101, as well as to fund its day-to-day operations. Such approval is contingent on several factors and no assurance can be provided that approval will be obtained. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. While the Company will actively pursue these additional sources of financing, management cannot make any assurances that such financing will be secured or FDA approvals will be obtained.
Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required for complete financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. However, the Company’s results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Financial Statement Reclassification
Certain account balances from prior periods have been reclassified in these consolidated financial statements to conform to current period classifications. The prior year amounts have also been modified in these financial statements to properly report amounts under current operations and discontinued operations (see Note 3).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumption that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates made in connection with the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the fair values in connection with the GeoTraq promissory note, Series S convertible preferred stock issued in the Soin merger, and the receivable in connection with the sale of ARCA, analysis of other intangibles and long-lived assets for impairment, valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, lease terminations, and estimated useful lives for intangible assets and property and equipment.

Table of Contents
Financial Instruments
Financial instruments consist primarily of cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, notes receivable, and obligations under accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable. The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, trade receivables and other receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term notes payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the long-term debt is calculated based on interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Company’s existing debt arrangements, unless quoted market prices were available (Level 2 inputs). The carrying amounts of long-term debt at December 31, 2022 approximate fair value. The Company has no long-term debt as of September 30, 2023 due to the disposition of ARCA Recycling (see Note 18).
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduces a new approach to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments based on expected losses instead of incurred losses. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted this new accounting standard, however, as of the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023, there is no material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
Note 3: Discontinued Operations
As of September 30, 2023, the Company discontinued operations of its Recycling and Technology segments as follows:
On March 9, 2023, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement with VM7 Corporation, a Delaware corporation, under which, as of March 1, 2023, the Buyer agreed to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of (a) ARCA Recycling, Inc., a California corporation, (b) Customer Connexx LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and (c) ARCA Canada Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Ontario, Canada (“ARCA Canada”; and, together with ARCA and Connexx, the “Subsidiaries”). The principal of the Buyer is Virland A. Johnson, our Chief Financial Officer. The sale of all of the outstanding equity interests of the Subsidiaries to the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement was consummated simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement (see Note 18).
On May 24, 2022, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with SPYR Technologies Inc., pursuant to which the Company sold to SPYR substantially all the assets and none of the liabilities of its wholly-owned subsidiary GeoTraq Inc. No GeoTraq assets or liabilities were included in discontinued operations at December 31, 2022.

Historically the Company operated its recycling business in fourteen states in the U.S. and in various provinces in Canada. From time to time, the Company is subject to sales and use tax audits that could result in additional taxes, penalties and interest owed to various taxing authorities.
The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (formerly known as the California Board of Equalization) (“CDTFA”) conducted a sales and use tax examination covering ARCA Recycling’s California operations for years 2011, 2012, and 2013. The Company believed it was exempt from collecting sales taxes under service agreements with utility customers that included appliance replacement programs. During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company received communication from the CDTFA indicating they were not in agreement with the Company’s interpretation of the law. As a result, the Company applied for and, as of February 9, 2015, received approval to participate in the CDTFA’s Managed Audit Program. The period covered under this program included the years 2011, 2012, and 2013 and extended through the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014.
On April 13, 2017 the Company received the formal CDTFA assessment for sales tax for tax years 2011, 2012, and 2013 in the amount of approximately $4.1 million plus applicable interest of $500,000 related to the appliance replacement programs that the Company administered on behalf of its customers on which it did not assess, collect, or remit sales tax. The Company has appealed this assessment to the CDTFA Appeals Bureau. The appeal remains in process. Interest has continued to accrue until the matter is resolved.

Related Party ICG Note
On August 28, 2019, ARCA Recycling entered into and delivered to Isaac Capital Group LLC (“ICG”) a secured revolving line of credit promissory note, whereby ICG agreed to provide ARCA Recycling with a $2.5 million revolving credit facility (the “ICG Note”). The ICG Note originally matured on August 28, 2020. On August 25, 2020, the ICG Note was amended to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2020. On March 30, 2021, ARCA Recycling entered into a Second Amendment and Waiver (the “Second Amendment”) to the ICG Note to further extend the maturity date to August 18, 2021 and waive certain defaults under the ICG Note. The ICG Note bears interest at 8.75% per annum and provides for the payment of interest, monthly in arrears. ARCA Recycling will pay a loan fee of 2.0% on each borrowing made under the ICG Note. In connection with entering into the ICG Note, the Borrower also entered into a security agreement in favor of the Lender, pursuant to which ARCA Recycling granted a security interest in all of its assets to the Lender.
The obligations of ARCA Recycling under the ICG Note are guaranteed by the Company. The foregoing transaction did not include the issuance of any shares of the Company’s common stock, warrants, or other derivative securities. As of January 1, 2022, the balance due on ICG Note was $1.0 million. Beginning in April 2022, the revolving credit facility was converted to a term note that amortized ratably through its maturity date of March 2026. The principal amount of the note was $1.0 million, and was to bear interest at 8.75% per annum. Monthly payments on this note were approximately $24,767. ICG is a record and beneficial owner of 13.6% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Jon Isaac is the manager and sole member of ICG, and the son of Tony Isaac, the Chief Executive Officer of JanOne and, previously, ARCA Recycling.

SPYR Note
On May 24, 2022, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with SPYR Technologies Inc. (“SPYR”), pursuant to which the Company sold to SPYR substantially all of the assets and none of the specified liabilities of GeoTraq. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, SPYR delivered to the Company a five-year Promissory Note in the initial principal amount of $12.6 million. The Promissory Note bears simple interest at the rate of 8% per annum, provides quarterly interest payments due on the first day of each calendar quarter, and may be prepaid at any time without penalty. Interest payments may be remitted in either restricted shares of common stock or restricted shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock of SPYR, or in cash. The Promissory Note matures on May 24, 2027. The Company has received restricted shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock of SPYR equivalent to approximately 414,000,000 shares of its common stock during the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023, and 30,000,000 shares of SPYR's common stock during the 39 weeks ended October 1, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has accrued receivables of approximately $254,000 in interest income related to the Promissory Note.
In connection with the asset sale, the Company engaged a third-party valuation firm to assess the fair value of the consideration received. Based on the valuation, the Promissory Note (“Note”) was initially valued at approximately $11.3 million, but was revised to be approximately $9.5 million upon review of the original valuation by the Company. The amount of the revised discount amount, or approximately $3.2 million, was recorded as an offset to the principal amount of the Note, and will be accreted ratably to interest income over the term of the Note. No charges against income relating to the value of the Note have been recorded for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023. The Company will continue to review SPYR's financial trends going further to determine whether additional charges against income should occur.
The balance appearing on the Company's consolidated balance sheets represents the principal balance of the Promissory Note, net of the discount balance. During the 13 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, approximately $201,000 and $65,000, respectively, of the discount was recorded as interest income, and during the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, approximately $604,000 and $65,000, respectively, of the discount was recorded as interest income. As of September 30, 2023, the net carrying value of the Note was approximately 9.6 million.
VM7 Note
On March 9, 2023, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with VM7 Corporation, a Delaware corporation, under which the Buyer agreed to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of (a) ARCA Recycling, Inc., a California corporation, (b) Customer Connexx LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and (c) ARCA Canada Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Ontario, Canada (“ARCA Canada”; and, together with ARCA and Connexx, the “Subsidiaries”). The principal of the Buyer is Virland A. Johnson, our Chief Financial Officer. The sale of all of the outstanding equity interests of the Subsidiaries to the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement was consummated simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement. The Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the Purchase Agreement and the Disposition Transaction. The Stock Purchase Agreement is retroactive to March 1, 2023 (see Note 18).
The minimum consideration to be received by the Company from the Disposition Transaction, as discussed above, is $1.6 million per year for 15 years, or $24.0 million in the aggregate, plus cash of $3,000 paid at close. In connection with the Disposition Transaction, the Company used a discount rate of 20% when it valued the aggregate minimum consideration. Management determined that discount rate appropriately addresses any risk that the minimum payments would not be received. The valuation, factoring in that discount rate, yielded a present value of approximately $6.0 million, which, in addition to the $3,000 paid at close, comprises the approximately $6.0 million of net consideration. The amount of the

revised discount amount, or approximately $18.0 million, was recorded as an offset to the principal amount of the Note, and will be accreted ratably to interest income over the term of the Note. During the 13 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, approximately $303,000 and $0, respectively, of the discount was recorded as interest income, and during the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, approximately $417,000 and $0, respectively, of the discount was recorded as interest income. As of September 30, 2023, the net carrying value of the note was approximately 5.6 million.

Litigation
SEC Complaint
On August 2, 2021, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filed a civil complaint (the “SEC Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada naming the Company and one of its executive officers, Virland Johnson, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, as defendants (collectively, the “Defendants”).
The SEC Complaint alleges financial, disclosure and reporting violations against the Company and the executive officer under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5. The SEC Complaint also alleges various claims against the executive officer under Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), 13(b)(2)(B) and 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-13, 13a-14, 13b2-1, and 13b2-2. The SEC seeks permanent injunctions and civil penalties against the Defendants, and an officer-and-director bar against the executive officer. The foregoing is only a general summary of the SEC Complaint, which may be accessed on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/2021/lr25155.htm.
The Company continues to assert that the SEC’s pursuit of this matter will not result in any benefit to investors and instead will only serve as a distraction from its core business. On October 1, 2021, the Company, filed a motion with the court to dismiss the complaint. The SEC filed its response opposing the motions on November 1, 2021.On September 7, 2022, the motions to dismiss were denied by the court. Pursuant to the automatic stay of proceedings under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, all discovery was stayed pending the motions to dismiss and the June 23, 2023 mediation to which all of the parties agreed. As of the date of these financial statements, discovery has recommenced as the mediation did not result in a settlement and the motions to dismiss were denied.

The Defendants continue strongly to dispute and deny the allegations and continue to defending themselves vigorously against the claims.
Skybridge
On December 29, 2016, the Company served a Minnesota state court complaint for breach of contract on Skybridge Americas, Inc. (“SA”), the Company’s primary call center vendor throughout 2015 and most of 2016. The Company sought damages in the millions of dollars as a result of alleged overcharging by SA and lost client contracts. On January 25, 2017, SA served a counterclaim for unpaid invoices in the amount of approximately $460,000 plus interest and attorneys’ fees. On March 29, 2017, the Hennepin County district court (the “District Court”) dismissed the Company’s breach of contract claim based on SA’s overuse of its Canadian call center but permitted the Company’s remaining claims to proceed. Following motion practice, on January 8, 2018 the District Court entered judgment in SA’s favor, which was amended as of February 28, 2018, for a total amount of approximately $614,000, including interest and attorneys’ fees. On March 4, 2019, the Minnesota Court of Appeals (the “Court of Appeals”) ruled and (i) reversed the District Court’s judgment in favor of Skybridge on the call center location claim and remanded the issue back to the District Court for further proceedings, (ii) reversed the District Court’s judgment in favor of Skybridge on the net payment issue and remanded the issue to the District Court for further proceedings, and (iii) affirmed the District Court’s judgment in Skybridge’s favor against the Company’s claim that Skybridge breached the contract when it failed to meet the service level agreements. As a result of the decision by the Court of Appeals, the District Court’s award of interest and attorneys’ fees, etc. was reversed. The Company and SA held a mediation session in July 2020. Trial was held in August 2020 and on February 1, 2021, the District Court assessed damages against the Company in the amount of approximately $715,000 plus interest, fees, and costs and attorneys’ fees of $475,000. In subsequent proceedings, the Appeals Court affirmed the District Court judgment. Of the total amount awarded to SA, less the funds that the Company had previously deposited with the District Court, SA remains entitled to approximately $382,000 of statutory interest, which obligation SA continues to attempt to collect from the Company, although that obligation was assumed by the Buyer in connection with the ARCA and Subsidiaries Disposition transaction (see Note 18).
GeoTraq
On or about April 9, 2021, GeoTraq, Gregg Sullivan, Tony Isaac, and we, among others, resolved all of their claims that related to, among other items, the Company's acquisition of GeoTraq in August 2017, all post-acquisition activities, and Mr. Sullivan’s post-acquisition employment relationship with GeoTraq (all of such claims, the “GeoTraq Matters”). The resolution was effectuated through the parties’ execution and delivery of a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Agreement of Claims (the “GeoTraq Settlement Agreement”).
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of GeoTraq and Mr. Isaac, agreed to tender to Mr. Sullivan an aggregate of $1.95 million (the “GeoTraq Settlement Consideration”) in the following manner: (i) $250,000, which was tendered in cash on or about the date of the Settlement Agreement and (ii) up to 10 quarterly installments of not less than $170,000 each that commenced on June 1, 2021, and shall continue not less frequently than every three months thereafter (the “GeoTraq Installments”). The Company may tender the GeoTraq Installments in cash or in the equivalent value of shares of its common stock (the value of the shares to be determined by a formula set forth in the Settlement Agreement), in either case at the Company's discretion. The Company may also prepay one or more GeoTraq Installments in full or in part at any time or from time to time either in cash or in shares of its common stock (a “GeoTraq Prepayment”). If the Company elects to prepay one or more GeoTraq Installments with shares of its common stock, Mr. Sullivan reserves the right not to consent to a tender thereof in excess of 50% of the value of that specific GeoTraq Prepayment; however, Mr. Sullivan is restricted in the reasons for which he can refuse to provide his written consent. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued upon any GeoTraq Prepayment is determined by a different formula than the one to be utilized for a GeoTraq Installment. On March 17, 2023, the Company converted 5,185 of Mr. Sullivan’s Series A-1 Preferred shares and issued 103,707 shares of the Company's common stock as payment for its quarterly installment. On June 1, 2023, the Company converted 7,697 of Mr. Sullivan’s Series A-1 Preferred shares into 153,941 shares of the Company’s common stock in payment of its June 30, 2023 quarterly installment. On September 1, 2023, the Company converted 14,471 of Mr. Sullivan’s Series A-1 Preferred shares into 289,421 shares of the Company’s common stock in payment of its September 30, 2023 quarterly installment. (see Note 13). As of September 30, 2023, the full balance due under the Settlement Agreement had been repaid.
The parties to the Settlement Agreement released and forever discharged one another from any and all known and unknown claims that were asserted or could have been asserted arising out of the GeoTraq Litigation Matters. The accrued liability for payments due to Mr. Sullivan is $0 and $510,000 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Johnson, Defendants, the Company was added as a defendant on March 6, 2023, and was served on March 23, 2023. Plaintiff has alleged causes of action against the Company for (i) violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder and (ii) violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rules
10b-5(a) and 10b-5(c) promulgated thereunder. In June 2023 the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss, regarding which, as of the date of these financial statements, the Court has not ruled.

Main/270
The Company is a defendant in an action filed on April 11, 2022, in the U.S. District Court Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, styled, Trustees Main/270, LLC, Plaintiff, vs ApplianceSmart, Inc. and JANONE, Inc., Defendant, Case no.: 2:22-cv-01938-ALM-EPD. The Company was a guarantor of the lease between the Plaintiff and ApplianceSmart, Inc. Plaintiff alleged a cause of action against the Company in respect of the guaranty and seeks approximately $90,000 therefor. Plaintiff also seeks approximately $1,420,000 against ApplianceSmart and the Company on a joint and several basis. The Company does not believe that it is obligated to Plaintiff in that amount and the parties continue to negotiate a potential settlement.
Westerville Square
In an attempt to recover payments due under a lease, in 2019, Westerville Square, Inc., as the landlord, initiated a civil action against the Company, styled Westerville Square, Inc. v. Appliance Recycling Centers Of America, Inc., et al., in the Court of Common Pleas of Franklin County, Ohio, Case No. 19 CV 8627. The case was stayed during the bankruptcy proceedings of ApplianceSmart, Inc., and was reinstated on June 7, 2021. The landlord sought $120,000, which amount was disputed by the Company. Effective June 4, 2023, the parties settled the matter, pursuant to which settlement the Company tendered the sum of $110,000 to the landlord, the parties entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release, and the case was dismissed with prejudice.
Other Commitments
On December 30, 2017, the Company disposed of its retail appliance segment and sold ApplianceSmart to Live Ventures Incorporated, a related party. In connection with that sale, as of December 28, 2019, the Company accrued an aggregate amount of future real property lease payments of approximately $767,000 which represented amounts guaranteed or which may have been owed under certain lease agreements to three third-party landlords in which the Company either remained the counterparty, was a guarantor, or had agreed to remain contractually liable under the lease (“ApplianceSmart Leases”). A final decree was issued by the court on February 28, 2022, upon the full satisfaction of the Plan, at which time ApplianceSmart emerged from Chapter 11. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company reversed approximately $637,000 of the accrual, as the Company is no longer liable for two of these guarantees upon ApplianceSmart’s emergence from bankruptcy. As of September 30, 2023, a balance of approximately $130,000 remains as an accrued liability due to an ongoing dispute concerning one of the leases.
The Company is party from time to time to other ordinary course disputes that we do not believe to be material to our financial condition as of September 30, 2023.

Note 15: Earnings Per Share
Net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Basic weighted average common shares outstanding do not include shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested, although such shares are included as outstanding shares in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the additional common shares issuable in respect of restricted share awards, stock options and convertible preferred stock.
The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (in $000’s, except share and per–share data):

Potentially dilutive securities totaling 114,000 and 117,500 were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, respectively, because the effects were anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method. Additionally, 193,730 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, convertible into approximately 3.9 million of the Company’s common shares, and 100,000 shares of Series S Preferred Stock, convertible into 100,000 of the Company’s common shares, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as, by agreement, these shares could not be converted as of September 30, 2023.
Note 16: Segment Information
The Company operates through its biotechnology segment for continuing operations. The biotechnology segment commenced operations in September 2019 and is focused on development of new and innovative solutions for ending the opioid epidemic ranging from digital technologies to educational advocacy. The recycling segment included all fees charged and costs incurred for collecting, recycling and installing appliances for utilities and other customers. The recycling segment also included byproduct revenue, which was primarily generated through the recycling of appliances. The technology segment designed wireless modules to connect devices to the Mobile Internet of Things (“IoT”), which contained location-based service (“LBS”) capabilities and can interface to external sensors to allow them to communicate both sensor status and position information. The nature of products, services and customers for each segment varies significantly. As such, the segments are managed separately. Our Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources based on sales and income from operations of each segment. Operating loss represents revenues, less cost of revenues and operating expenses, including certain allocated selling, general and administrative costs. There are no intersegment sales or transfers. As discussed above (see Note 3), the recycling and technology segments are being presented as discontinued operations for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022. respectively.

Table of Contents
outstanding equity interests of the Subsidiaries to the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement was consummated simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement. The Company's Board of Directors unanimously approved the Purchase Agreement and the Disposition Transaction. The Stock Purchase Agreement is retroactively effective as of March 1, 2023 (see Note 18).
Note 18: Sale of ARCA and Subsidiaries
On March 9, 2023, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with VM7 Corporation, a Delaware corporation, under which the Buyer agreed to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of (a) ARCA Recycling, Inc., a California corporation, (b) Customer Connexx LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and (c) ARCA Canada Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Ontario, Canada (“ARCA Canada”; and, together with ARCA and Connexx, the “Subsidiaries”). The principal of the Buyer is Virland A. Johnson, our Chief Financial Officer. The sale of all of the outstanding equity interests of the Subsidiaries to the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement was consummated simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement. The Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the Purchase Agreement and the Disposition Transaction. The Stock Purchase Agreement is retroactively effective as of March 1, 2023.
The economic aspects of the Disposition Transaction are: (i) the Company reduced the liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets by approximately $17.6 million, and includes those liabilities related to the California Business Fee and Tax Division; (ii) the Company will receive not less than $24.0 million in aggregate monthly payments from the Buyer, which payments are subject to potential increase due to the Subsidiaries’ future performance; and (iii) during the next five years, the Company may request that the Buyer prepay aggregate monthly payments in the aggregate amount of $1 million. The Company also received one thousand dollars for the equity of each of the Subsidiaries at the closing. Each monthly payment is to be the greater of (a) $140,000 (or $100,000 for each January and February during the 15-year payment period) or (b) a monthly percentage-based payment, which is an amount calculated as follows: (i) 5% of the Subsidiaries’ aggregate gross revenues up to $2,000,000 for the relevant month, plus (ii) 4% of the Subsidiaries’ aggregate gross revenues between $2,000,000 and $3,000,000 for the relevant month, plus (iii) 3% of the Subsidiaries aggregate gross revenues over $3,000,000 for the relevant month. The Buyer will receive credit toward the payment of the first monthly payment (March of 2023) for any payments, distributions, or cash dividends paid by any of the Subsidiaries to the Seller on or after March 9, 2023. Additionally, upon settlement of the continuing dispute between ARCA and the California Business Fee and Tax Division (as to which settlement, there can be no assurance), ARCA will pay to the Company 50% of the amount of the reduction between the current assessment and any such settlement. Further, ARCA and Connexx are due to receive from the Internal Revenue Service two payments in the aggregate amount of approximately $977,000 in connection with the Employee Retention Credit provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020. ARCA and Connexx have received these two ERC payments and, as of September 30, 2023, have paid $500,000 to the Company. The balance of the ERC payments due, as of September 30, 2023, was $477,000.
The minimum consideration to be received by the Company from the Disposition Transaction, as discussed above, is $1.6 million per year for 15 years, or $24.0 million in the aggregate, plus cash of $3,000 paid at close. In connection with the Disposition Transaction, the Company used a discount rate of 20% when it valued the aggregate minimum consideration. Management determined that discount rate appropriately addresses any risk that the minimum payments would not be received. The valuation, factoring in that discount rate, yielded a present value of approximately $6.0 million, which, in addition to the $3,000 paid at close, comprises the approximately $6.0 million of net consideration. Additionally, the calculation of the gain on disposition includes the book value in excess of assets disposed of, or approximately $9.8 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. Dollars stated in thousands, except per–share amounts.
Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which involve risks and uncertainties. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as ‘‘believes,’’ ‘‘expects,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘seeks,’’ ‘‘approximately,’’ ‘‘intends,’’ ‘‘plans,’’ ‘‘estimates’’ or ‘‘anticipates’’ or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or intentions. Any statements we make relating to our future operations, performance and results, and anticipated liquidity are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those we expected. We derive most of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, including, without limitation, in conjunction with the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q, are disclosed in “Item 1-Business, Item 1A – Risk Factors” of our Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K (including the information presented therein under the caption Risk Factors), together with our Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q and other publicly available information. All amounts herein are unaudited.
Overview
We are focused on finding treatments for conditions that cause severe pain and bringing to market drugs with non-addictive pain-relieving properties. In addition, through our now-sold subsidiaries ARCA Recycling, Connexx, and ARCA Canada, we were engaged in the business of recycling major household appliances in North America by providing turnkey appliance recycling and replacement services for utilities and other sponsors of energy efficiency programs. Also, through our now-sold GeoTraq Inc. subsidiary, we were engaged in the development and design of wireless transceiver modules with technology that provides LBS directly from global Mobile IoT networks.
During the periods disclosed in this Quarterly Report, we operated three reportable segments:
Biotechnology: Our biotechnology segment is focused on finding treatments for conditions that cause severe pain and bringing to market drugs with non-addictive pain-relieving properties.
Recycling: Our recycling segment is a turnkey appliance recycling program. We receive fees charged for recycling, replacement and additional services for utility energy efficiency programs and have established 18 Regional Processing Centers (“RPCs”) for this segment throughout the United States and Canada. On March 9, 2023, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, retroactive to March 1, 2023, with VM7 Corporation, a Delaware corporation, under which the Buyer agreed to acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of our recycling segment. Consequently, the results for this segment are reported as discontinued operations for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022.
Technology: We suspended all operations for GeoTraq, and, on May 24, 2022, sold substantially all of its assets. The results for this segment are reported as discontinued operations for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
As of September 30, 2023, our cash on hand was $413,000. We intend to fund operations by using cash on hand, monthly revenues from the sale of our Subsidiaries, and funds received from approved ERC’s. We intend to raise funds to support future development of JAN 123 and JAN 101 either through capital raises or structured arrangements.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the success of future capital raises or structured settlements to fund the required testing to obtain FDA approval of JAN 123 and JAN 101, as well as to fund our day-to-day operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. While we will actively pursue these additional sources of financing, management cannot make any assurances that such financing will be secured.
Cash Flows
During the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023, cash provided by operations was approximately $1.9 million, compared to cash used in operations of approximately $2.4 million during the 39 weeks ended October 1, 2022. Cash provided by discontinued operations during the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $2.3 million, while cash used in continuing operations was approximately $2.7 million. The increase in cash was primarily due to results of operations as discussed above.
Cash used in investing activities was approximately $156,000 and $950,000, respectively, for the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 and the 39 weeks ended October 1, 2022.

Cash used in investing activities for the 39 weeks ended October 1, 2022 was all associated with discontinued operations and related to purchases of property and equipment and intangibles.
Cash used in financing activities was approximately $1.4 million for the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023. Cash used in financing activities from discontinued operations for the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $2.2 million and was primarily due to the repayment of debt obligations.

Cash provided by continuing operations was approximately $329,000.
Future Sources of Cash; Phase 2b Trials, New Acquisitions, Products, and Services
We may require additional debt financing and/or capital to finance new acquisitions, conduct our Phase IIb clinical trials, or consummate other strategic investments in our business. No assurance can be given any financing obtained may not further dilute or otherwise impair the ownership interest of our existing stockholders.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market Risk and Impact of Inflation
Interest Rate Risk. We do not believe there is any significant risk related to interest rate fluctuations on our short and long-term fixed rate debt.
We do not hold any derivative financial instruments, nor do we hold any securities for trading or speculative purposes.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure control and Procedures. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weaknesses discussed below.
In light of the conclusion that our internal disclosure controls are ineffective as of September 30, 2023, we have applied procedures and processes as necessary to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting in regard to this annual report. Accordingly, the Company believes, based on its knowledge, that: (i) this annual report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material fact; and (ii) the financial statements, and other financial information included in this annual report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in this annual report.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2023. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in 2013 regarding Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment using those

Table of Contents
criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2023.
Management noted material weaknesses in internal control when conducting their evaluation of internal control as of September 30, 2023: (1) Insufficient information technology general controls and segregation of duties; (2) inadequate control design or lack of sufficient controls over significant accounting processes; (3) insufficient assessment of the impact of potentially significant transactions; and (4) insufficient processes and procedures related to proper recordkeeping of agreements and contracts.
These material weaknesses remained outstanding as of the filing date of this Form 10-Q and management is currently working to remedy these outstanding material weaknesses.
The Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, do not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, regardless of how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. These inherent limitations include the following: judgements in decision-making can be faulty, and control and process breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes, controls can be circumvented by individuals, acting alone or in collusion with each other, or by management override, the design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the 39 weeks ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information in response to this item is included in Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1, of this Form 10-Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. However, in light of the SEC Complaint, the Company provides the following additional risk factors, which supplements the risk factors previously disclosed by the Company in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of the 2022 10-K.
We are the subject of an SEC Complaint, which could divert management’s focus, result in substantial litigation expenses, and have an adverse impact on our business, reputation, financial condition, results of operations or stock price.
We are currently subject to an SEC Complaint. Refer to Note 15 to our Consolidated Financial Statements and Part II, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information regarding this specific matter. We may be subject to additional investigations, arbitration proceedings, audits, regulatory inquiries, and similar actions, including matters related to intellectual property, employment, securities laws, disclosures, tax, accounting, class action and product liability, as well as regulatory and other claims related to our business and our industry, which we refer to collectively as legal proceedings. We cannot predict the outcome of any particular proceeding, or whether ongoing investigations, will be resolved favorably or ultimately result in charges or material damages, fines or other penalties, enforcement actions, bars against serving as an officer or director, or practicing before the SEC, or civil or criminal proceedings against us or members of our senior management.
Legal proceedings in general, and securities and class action litigation and regulatory investigations in particular, can be expensive and disruptive. Our insurance may not cover all claims that may be asserted against us, and we are unable to predict how long the legal proceedings to which we are currently subject will continue. An unfavorable outcome of any legal proceeding may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations or our stock price. Any proceeding could negatively impact our reputation among our stakeholders. Furthermore, publicity surrounding ongoing legal proceedings, even if resolved favorably for us, could result in additional legal proceedings against us, as well as damage our image.
We may not be able to maintain compliance with the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market.
Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. In order to maintain that listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other requirements including, without limitation, a requirement that our closing bid price be at least $1.00 per share. If we fail to continue to meet all applicable continued listing requirements for The Nasdaq Global Market in the future and Nasdaq determines to delist our common stock, the delisting could adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock, our ability to obtain financing to repay debt, and fund our operations.
