PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Company Overview

United Health Products, Inc. ("UHP" or the "Company") develops, manufactures, and markets a patented hemostatic gauze for the healthcare and wound care sectors. The product, HemoStyp®, is derived from all natural, regenerated oxidized cellulose and designed to absorb exudate/drainage from superficial wounds and help control bleeding. The Company sells its product to the veterinarian, dental, medical, military and sports markets, each of which represents a multi-million-dollar market opportunity for the Company. We also sell products aimed at the consumer market via Walmart.com. We are currently in the process of seeking regulatory approval to sell products into the U.S. Class III surgical market.

Recent Developments

The following developments in the Company’s business have occurred since the beginning of 2018:

	·	In February 2018, the Company completed and submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) all materials relevant for the pre-market approval (“PMA”) for HemoStyp under the FDA’s new and innovative CtQ Pilot-Program as a Class III application for internal surgical procedures. The CtQ Pilot Program was created to identify products that have a chemical makeup of demonstrated safe interaction with the body – as evidenced by years of prior product usage and studies – to be approved for Class III internal surgical use. The FDA reviewed UHP’s HemoStyp as one of the participants for the program.

	·	The Company’s 2” x 4” Trauma Gauze™ product has been selected as the feature component for a new Advanced Wound Care Kit for Dick’s Sporting Goods (NYSE DKS). With today’s environment when the unexpected can happen anywhere, both in the wild and in urban areas, having an advanced trauma kit can be the difference between survival and tragedy. The Hemostyp pouches have been included under the Field and Stream label and are available in their stores nationwide since February 2018.

	·	In January 2018, the Company’s distribution partner, Quantum Health Group, filed an application for Class III use in general internal surgical procedures with the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (“MFDS”) in South Korea. The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety provides the vision of "Safe Food and Drug, Healthy People, Well-being Society" and making extensive efforts to safeguard consumers and promote the public health by ensuring the safety of all foods, drugs, cosmetics, herbal medicines, and medical devices. Quantum received a response requiring additional data and testing. The Company intends to respond to the request and complete our application following the expected FDA Class III approval.

	·	In March 2018, the Company obtained Class III and CE mark approval for HemoStyp in the European Economic Area (EEA). The EEA comprises the 28 European Union members and certain other countries. Accordingly, HemoStyp was approved for use in internal surgical procedures in more than 30 countries. This approval expired in August of 2018 and a new application will be prepared in conjunction with the new CE standards for Class III following the expected FDA Class III approval. The EEA approval was granted following the provision of all required documentation to the relevant regulatory agencies. The CE marking– CE is an acronym for the French term "Conformité Européenne"– certifies that a product has met EEA health, safety, and environmental requirements, which ensure consumer safety. Manufacturers in the EEA and abroad must meet CE marking requirements where applicable to market their products in Europe. A manufacturer who has gone through the conformity assessment process may affix the CE mark to its product. With the CE marking, the product may be marketed throughout the EEA and certain other countries, with a combined population exceeding 517 million and a GDP greater than $17 trillion.

	·	In July 2018, the Company announced that it has been accepted as a Walmart.com supplier and offers two HemoStyp wound care products for online retail sale. Hemostrips® Hemostatic Bandages and Boo-boo Strip Hemostatic Bandages.

	·	On August 8, 2018, the Company announced that its protocol submission for human testing had been reviewed by the FDA in furtherance of our efforts to achieve Class III approval for the product in the U.S. This FDA review was provided to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) for protocol and hospital site approval. UHP started the human trial study in November. The IRB is a committee that is independent of the FDA, and that is formally designated to approve, monitor, and review biomedical and behavioral research involving humans. The purpose of the IRB is to assure that appropriate steps are taken to protect the rights and welfare of humans participating as subjects in a research study. The Company’s human trial protocol calls for the application of HemoStyp in abdominal, cardiovascular thoracic and vascular surgical procedures to control bleeding sites. Prior to finalizing its human trial protocol, we submitted a Q-Sub – a request for FDA review — to the FDA, in conjunction with its previously filed Class III PMA submission application.

	·	The IRB approved HemoStyp human trial is a prospective, non-inferiority, multi-center, randomized, open-label trial to observe HemoStyp in the management of bleeding during surgery; and, to assess the efficacy and safety of HemoStyp as an adjunct for management of secondary hemostasis in an operative setting. Our independently developed protocol has established endpoints for bleeding control.

	·	We expect that the human trials will be the last step to clear in obtaining FDA PMA Class III approval for HemoStyp. We have recruited a team of leading surgeons to conduct the study, and our lead investigator has successfully conducted over 20 medical device studies. We aim to complete this final regulatory stage as part of our strategy to supply the domestic and international hemostasis surgical markets.

	·	On October 25, 2018, the Company announced that, in connection with the FDA PMA Class III approval process for HemoStyp, UHP has been contacted by several medical technology companies that are active in the surgical equipment and hemostatic products sectors, and who had expressed an interest in the Company's products and business strategy. In response to these inbound contacts, and to maximize shareholder value, the Company's board of directors has determined to conduct a review of strategic alternatives, which include a potential sale of the Company, joint venture or other commercial partnership, or a standalone growth plan. To assist in this review, the Company has retained Société Générale to serve as financial advisor to the Company and it has retained the law firm of Ruskin Moscou Faltischek PC to assist in the strategic review. There can be no assurances that any specific transaction will occur as a result of the retention of these firms.

Our HemoStyp Gauze Products

HemoStyp Hemostatic Gauze is a collagen-like natural substance created from chemically treated cellulose. It is an effective hemostatic agent registered with the FDA to help control bleeding from open wounds and body cavities. The HemoStyp hemostatic material contains no chemical additives, thrombin or collagen, and is hypoallergenic. When the product comes in contact with blood it expands slightly and converts to an adhesive gel that subsequently dissolves into glucose and saline. Because of its purity and the fact that it simply degrades to non-toxic end products, HemoStyp does not cause significant delay in healing as do certain other hemostatic materials. Additional testing has shown HemoStyp to be 100% absorbable in 24 hours or less. Tests have also been conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of HemoStyp in thoracic and abdominal procedures. The Company continues to test for the effectiveness and the IFU (Instructions for Use) for abdominal and thoracic procedures.

HemoStyp Hemostatic Gauze is a flexible cloth-like material that is applied by folding the gauze as needed to fit the size of the wound or incision, and then placing the gauze onto the bleeding tissue. In surgical situations, the product converts to a transparent gel with a neutral pH level that allows the surgeon to monitor the coagulation process and also avoids damage to the surrounding tissue. In first responder or other non-surgical situations, putting a bandage on top of the gauze is optional and, in many cases, unnecessary. Since EMS (Emergency Medical Services) work is pre-hospital, rinsing the gauze out with saline or water is not necessary, as a wound will be debrided and possibly reopened prior to suturing at the hospital.

Our hemostatic gauze product line includes various configurations which have been developed to address the specific needs of our market segments and our existing customers, including the U.S. military. Our HemoStyp gauze products are sold in different sizes for use in superficial trauma cases, as a dental gauze and as a nasal dressing, and in a range of formats for veterinary applications, among others uses. The Company's hemostatic gauze product line now includes the following products:

	·	Veterinary Market type Products;
	·	Dental gauze for oral surgery;
	·	Several formats of Trauma Gauze™ for battlefield trauma; Adhesive bandages for use by consumers on cuts and abrasions; and,
	·	Island dressings to support intravenous procedures such as kidney dialysis.

Existing and Potential Target Markets

Our technology is marketed as HemoStyp Gauze but is also available to customers with customized private labeling. We are customer driven. We distribute both nationally and internationally. We are servicing (or intend to service) our customers through distributors, sales representatives, industry-specialized telephone support, and the Internet. Our current and potential customer base for our HemoStyp includes, without limitation:

	·	Hospitals and Surgery Centers for all Internal Surgical usage, post FDA Class III approval
	·	Hospitals, Clinics and Physicians – For external trauma
	·	EMS, Fire Departments and Other First Responders
	·	Public Safety, Police Departments and Military
	·	Correctional Facilities
	·	Schools, Universities and Day Care Facilities
	·	Nursing Homes and Assisted Living Environments
	·	Home Care Providers
	·	Dental offices
	·	Sports Medicine Providers
	·	Veterinarians
	·	Municipalities and Government Agencies and
	·	Occupational and Industrial Healthcare Professionals Consumers

Primary Strategy

We believe that the Class III surgical markets, both domestic and international, represent the most attractive market for our products due to the limited competition from other Class III approved ORC (Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose) products and the resulting premium pricing for hemostatic agents that can meet the demanding requirements of the human surgical environment. In addition, our preliminary tests lead us to believe that the HemoStyp technology can compete successfully against established market participants and allow us to gain market share. Given this assessment, we have devoted considerable resources in 2018 and currently to completing the FDA process and gaining access to this market in the U.S.

In February 2018, the Company completed and submitted to the FDA all materials relevant for the pre-market approval (“PMA”) for HemoStyp as a Class III application for internal surgical procedures. The 2017 U.S. market for hemostatic products used in internal surgery procedures is estimated at in excess of US$7 billion, of which the market for ORC or similar mechanical hemostatic products is estimated to be US$3.38 billion. This market is expected to grow at 6.2% annually to reach $4.57 billion by 2023 (source: October 2018 Market Data Forecast).

In anticipation of receiving Class III approval, our strategy is to devote resources and seek partnerships that allow us to penetrate this market along with the other markets to which the Company already has access. We are evaluating the best paths to rapidly grow our revenue and profits, which could include commercial partnerships and licensing agreement with established market participants, in addition or as an alternative to raising the necessary capital to establish and grow our own marketing and distribution capabilities. We will carefully evaluate the returns on investment in each addressable market to ensure the judicious deployment of our capital to create shareholder value.

We believe that refocusing the Company to become a stronger, medical technology corporation with a patented technology will enhance the Company’s value and overall market strength and allows for revenue generation via organic growth. Nevertheless, we have engaged Société Générale as described under “Recent Developments” to advise the Company on potential strategic alternatives including the possible sale of the Company and/or its intellectual assets. In the event that a transaction is not completed on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all, the Company would require substantial additional financing to execute an organic business development strategy addressing all of its intended markets.

Manufacturing and Packaging of our Products

The Company's gauze products are manufactured to our specifications at various facilities. We have established various contract manufacturing facilities to replace our original agreement with Hemo Manufacturing. All of these facilities have been carefully vetted and have supplied multiple Quality Control program certificates and are registered FDA facilities. These facilities have been confirmed as part of our PMA submission, which includes the FDA inspection records of these facilities. We are finalizing the move of most of the Company’s manufacturing operation to the United States but will maintain an overseas supply solution for our adhesive retail products.

Patents and Trademarks

In September 2012, the Company announced that its hemostatic gauze products were granted patent protection by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, which patent protection currently runs through 2029. However, if our intellectual property positions are challenged, invalidated, circumvented or expire, or if we fail to prevail in future intellectual property litigation, our business could be adversely affected. We have created multiple variations of our gauze product and will protect each of these new generation platforms and product with additional intellectual property. Our success depends in part on our ability to defend our intellectual property rights. The patent positions of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies can be highly uncertain and often involve complex legal, scientific and factual questions. Third parties may seek to challenge, invalidate or circumvent our intellectual property rights. In addition, our patent positions might not protect us against competitors with similar products or technologies because competing products or technologies may not infringe our patents. Also, there are third parties who have patents or pending patent applications that they may claim necessitate payment of a royalty or prevent us from commercializing our patent in certain territories. Patent disputes are frequent, costly and can preclude, delay or increase the cost of commercialization of products.

The Company has also received the following from the USPTO:

Boo Boo Strips: Will be published for opposition on March 26, 2019. If no opposition, the Company should receive the mark by the end of April 2019.

The Ultimate Bandage: Notice of publication has not been received but was approved by the examining attorney at the same time as Boo Boo Strips.

Hemostrips: To be reviewed by the examining attorney in April 2019.

Nik Fix: The Company has prepared the application and will be submitted in May 2019.

Competition

The disposable medical supply market in the United States is dominated by large companies such as Baxter International, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Johnson & Johnson and 3M Company. Our hemostatic gauze product will directly compete in the gauze markets dominated by these majors. However, the market for hemostatic products, which includes gauzes, gels, bandages and powders, is largely composed of smaller, privately-held companies with the exception of Johnson & Johnson, which manufactures SurgicelÒ. In this market, competitive factors include price, product offerings, value-added service programs, service and delivery, credit terms, and customer support.

Government Regulation

We are subject to oversight by various federal and state governmental entities and we are subject to, and affected by, a variety of federal and state laws, regulations and policies.

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration ("DEA"), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") and various state regulatory authorities regulate the purchase, storage, and/or distribution of pharmaceutical products. The DEA, FDA and state regulatory authorities have broad enforcement powers, including the ability to seize or recall products and impose significant criminal, civil and administrative sanctions for violations of applicable laws and regulations. As a wholesale distributor of pharmaceuticals and certain related products, we are subject to these laws and regulations. We must have all necessary licenses and other regulatory approvals and are required to be in compliance with all applicable pharmaceutical wholesale distribution requirements needed to conduct our operations. See “Recent Developments.”

In recent years, some states have passed or proposed laws and regulations that are intended to protect the safety of the pharmaceutical supply channel. These laws and regulations are designed to prevent the introduction of counterfeit, diverted, adulterated or mislabeled pharmaceuticals into the distribution system. In addition, the FDA Amendments Act of 2007 (the "2007 Act") requires the FDA to establish standards and identify and validate effective technologies for the purpose of securing the pharmaceutical supply chain against counterfeit drugs. These standards may include track-and-trace or authentication technologies, such as radio frequency identification devices and other technologies. The 2007 Act required the FDA to develop a standardized numerical identifier by April 1, 2010.

As a result of political, economic and regulatory influences, the healthcare delivery industry in the United States is under intense scrutiny and subject to fundamental changes. Although there was substantial Federal legislation enacted during 2010 that impacted our healthcare system in the United States, we expect that the administration, Congress and certain state legislatures will continue to review and assess alternative healthcare delivery systems and payment methods in order to reform the healthcare system. Thus, we cannot predict the impact on us of the 2010 legislation and/or additional regulation governing the delivery or pricing of healthcare products that may be passed. Nor can we predict the impact on us of potential changes to the structure of the present healthcare delivery system, if any, when they may be adopted.

The costs associated with complying with federal and state regulations could be significant and the failure to comply with any such legal requirements could have a significant impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Environmental Matters

Our business activities are subject to extensive federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations relating to water, air, hazardous substances and wastes that may restrict or limit such business activities. Although the Company does not currently directly manufacture its own products, we may still be subject to existing environmental laws by way of regulatory agencies or other third-party claimants. Examples of U.S. Federal environmental legislation that may have adverse effects on the Company include the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, Compensation and Liability Act (aka CERCLA or Superfund) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. By no means do we certify this list as being complete, as there are many laws and regulations that exist or that may come to pass that we cannot foresee that may also have an impact on the Company. The multitude of regulations issued by federal, state, provincial and local administrative agencies can be burdensome and costly and we determined to change our business model as a result. There are currently no pending legal proceedings with any government regulatory agencies.

Research and Development Expenditures

In fiscal 2018 and 2017, we incurred $76,951 and $19,936, respectively, in research and development expenditures.

Personnel

As of April 1, 2019, we have four full-time employees and up to eight additional consultants, excluding our eight Medical Advisory Board members.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We are engaged in the sale and distribution of hemostatic gauze products to stop superficial bleeding. As we develop our business, there are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

We have a history of operating losses and we may continue to lose money in the future

For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had a net loss of $6,006,135 and $934,968, respectively. We have a history of operating losses and we may continue to lose money in the future

We have limited operating history. Accordingly, you will have no basis upon which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objectives.

We have limited operating history, which makes it difficult for potential investors to evaluate our business or prospective operations. Our business plan is to develop the U.S. and International market for the sale of our hemostatic gauze product line. Our plans are subject to all of the risks inherent in the financing, expenditures, complications and delays inherent in a relatively new business. Investors should evaluate an investment in our Company in light of the uncertainties frequently encountered by companies developing markets for new products. We may never overcome these obstacles. In addition, our business is speculative and depends upon the implementation of our business plan and our ability to enter into agreements with third parties on terms that will be commercially viable for us. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will be able to attain profitability.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This could make it more difficult for us to raise funds and adversely affect our relationships with lenders, investors and suppliers.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This indicates that our auditors believe that substantial doubt exists regarding our ability to continue to remain in business. We cannot provide any assurance that we will in fact operate our business profitably or obtain sufficient financing to sustain our business in the event we are not successful in our efforts to generate sufficient revenue and operating cash flow. The expression of such doubt by our independent registered public accounting firm or our inability to overcome the factors leading to such doubt could have a material adverse effect on our relationships with prospective customers, lenders, investors and suppliers, and therefore could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We can provide no assurances that given that the Class III application for internal surgical procedures will be approved by the FDA.

In February 2018, the Company completed and submitted to the FDA all materials relevant for the pre-market approval (“PMA”) for HemoStyp under the FDA’s new and innovative CtQ Pilot-Program as a Class III application for internal surgical procedures. There can be no assurances given that the Class III application for internal surgical procedures will be approved by the FDA.

We can provide no assurances that the retention of a financial advisor and a legal counsel to assist in strategic review will result in the occurrence of a specific transaction.

On October 25, 2018, the Company announced in connection with the FDA PMA Class III approval process for HemoStyp, UHP has been contacted by several medical technology companies that are active in the surgical equipment and hemostatic products sectors, and who have expressed an interest in the Company's products and business strategy. In response to these inbound contacts, and to maximize shareholder value, the Company's board of directors has determined to conduct a review of strategic alternatives, which include a potential sale of the Company, joint venture or other commercial partnership, or a standalone growth plan. To assist in this review, the Company has retained Société Générale to serve as financial advisor to the Company. There can be no assurances that any specific transaction will occur as a result of the retention of this firm.

We will need additional financing to execute our business plan and fund operations, which additional financing may not be available.

We currently have a working capital deficit, minimal cash and limited sales of our products. Our Chief Executive Officer is currently providing cash loans to us which are repayable upon demand to meet our working capital needs. These cash loans can be terminated at any time. As result of the Company's financial position, we may not be able to execute our current business plan and fund business operations long enough to achieve profitability. Our ultimate success may depend upon our ability to raise additional capital. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available when needed from any source or, if available, will be available on terms that are acceptable to us.

We may be required to pursue sources of additional capital through various means, including joint venture projects and debt or equity financings. Future financings through equity investments are likely to be dilutive to existing stockholders. Also, the terms of securities we may issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable for our new investors. Newly issued securities may include preferences, superior voting rights, the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, and the issuances of incentive awards under equity employee incentive plans, which may have additional dilutive effects. Further, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which will adversely impact our financial condition.

Our ability to obtain needed financing may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets, both generally and specifically in the healthcare industry, and the fact that we are not profitable, which could impact the availability and cost of future financings. If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities, together with our revenues from operations, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs, even to the extent that we reduce our operations accordingly, we may be required to cease operations.

No guarantee of market acceptance.

Our success is dependent on market acceptance of our hemostatic gauze products. We cannot assure you that healthcare market professionals will conclude that our hemostatic gauze products are useful and/or safe. We cannot assure you that our hemostatic gauze products will ultimately achieve or maintain significant market acceptance among distributors, patients, physicians, or healthcare payers in general.

We are dependent upon strategic relationships and distribution agreements to conduct our operations.

To market and sell our hemostatic gauze products business, we will endeavor to use the business relationships of our management to enter into strategic relationships, which may take the form of joint ventures with private parties and contractual arrangements with other resource companies. We may not be able to establish these strategic relationships, or if established, we may not be able to maintain them. In addition, the dynamics of our relationships with strategic partners may require us to incur expenses or undertake activities we would not otherwise be inclined to in order to fulfill our obligations to these partners or maintain our relationships. If our strategic relationships are not established or maintained, our business prospects may be limited, which could diminish our ability to conduct our operations. To date, we have entered into distribution/partner agreements for the dental, veterinarian, equestrian and U.S. military and retail markets as well as for Australasia for our hemostatic gauze products. We can provide no assurances that additional distribution agreements will be entered into on terms satisfactory to us, if at all or that our operations will be profitable as a result of these distribution agreements.

We could experience difficulties in our supply chain.

While we do not maintain our own manufacturing facilities, we have identified numerous new facilities in the US to maintain our production. This redundancy will insure we will not have any interruptions to our production. Our contract manufacturers and packaging facilities are responsible for quality control and overseeing the packaging and labeling of our products for distribution. We rely upon the services of our contract manufacturer to perform its obligations in a satisfactory manner and we could experience difficulties in our supply chain.

We are currently dependent on one hemostatic gauze product line to generate income.

The Company's hemostatic gauze product line is currently our only product line from which we can derive revenue. Lack of success in developing a commercial market for this product line will materially adversely affect our operations.

Our business may suffer if we do not attract and retain talented personnel.

Our success will depend in large measure on the abilities, expertise, judgment, discretion, integrity and good faith of our management and other personnel in conducting our intended business. In addition, we depend on management and employees to interpret market data correctly and to interpret and respond to economic, market and other conditions to locate and adopt appropriate business opportunities. We presently have a small management team, which we intend to expand in conjunction with our planned operations and growth. We will have to ensure that management and any key employees are appropriately compensated; however, their services cannot be guaranteed. If we are unable to attract and retain additional key management personnel and enter into satisfactory employment and other agreements, our business may be adversely affected.

We may not be able to adequately protect our technologies or intellectual property rights.

Our commercial success will depend in part on maintaining patent protection and trade secret protection of our technologies as well as successfully defending our intellectual property against third-party challenges. We will only be able to protect our technologies from unauthorized use by third parties to the extent that valid and enforceable patents or trade secrets cover them. Furthermore, the degree of future protection of our proprietary rights is uncertain because legal means afford only limited protection and may not adequately protect our rights or permit us to gain or keep our competitive advantage.

We have become aware of a lawsuit that has been filed against the Company and our Chief Executive Officer by a third party.

We have become aware that an individual who served in positions as Chairman, a director, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Advisor at various time between 2011 and 2015, has filed a lawsuit against the Company and our Chief Executive Officer in the United States District Court of the District of Nevada claiming, among other things, that he is entitled to cash and stock compensation from 2015. Neither the Company nor our Chief Executive Officer has been served in this action. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the matters claimed as well as counterclaims against the claimant. If the Company is served the summons and complaint in this matter, we plan to vigorously respond to the claims and pursue our remedies. If this action is served upon us, due to uncertainties inherent in litigation generally, we could not predict the outcome with certainty.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY

The healthcare industry is subject to extensive government regulation, which can result in increased costs, delays, limits on its operating flexibility and competitive disadvantages.

The healthcare industry is generally subject to extensive regulatory requirements. Many of these requirements result in significant costs that may adversely affect our business and financial results. If we are unable to pass those costs on it would negatively impact our profit margin.

Healthcare insurance legislation may lead to unintended adverse effects for businesses involved in our industry. New legislation that gives the Federal government greater regulatory powers may lead to negative consequences for certain aspects of our business. The full scope of the recently passed healthcare legislation may not be felt for several years, it is therefore difficult to predict any future consequences that would be challenges to our Company, or if we can overcome them.

Failure to comply with laws or government regulations could result in penalties.

Certain government requirements for technologies in the healthcare market may require licensure or mandatory minimum standards relating to the provision of services. Failure to comply with these requirements could materially affect our ability to expand into new or existing markets. Future regulatory developments may also cause disruptions to our operations.

Risks Relating to Our Organization

We are subject to the reporting requirements of the federal securities laws, which can be expensive.

We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and other federal and state securities laws, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders increase our operating costs.

It is time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal control’s requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications required by that Act.

Failure to achieve and maintain effective disclosure controls or internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our ability to report our financial results timely and accurately.

As result of our analysis of our system of internal accounting controls and accounting and financial reporting processes, we have identified a material weakness in our disclosure controls and internal controls. These are more specifically discussed in Item 9A of this Annual Report. As a result of these deficiencies, we must perform additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our financial statements are prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles. As a result, we will incur expenses and devote significant management resources to this review process. Furthermore, effective internal controls and procedures are necessary for us to continue to provide reliable financial reports. If we continue to have material weaknesses in our internal controls and procedures, we may not be able to provide reliable financial reports and our business and operating results could be harmed.

Public company compliance requirements may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. Compliance with the new rules and regulations increases our operating costs and makes certain activities more time consuming and costly than if we were not a public company. As a public company, these new rules and regulations make it more difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers.

There exist risks to stockholders relating to dilution: authorization of additional securities and reduction of percentage share ownership following investment.

To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued, the stockholders would experience dilution of their respective ownership interests in the Company. Additionally, if the Company issues a substantial number of shares of common stock in connection with or following an investment, a change in control of the Company may occur which may affect, among other things, the Company's ability to utilize net operating loss carry forwards, if any. Furthermore, the issuance of a substantial number of shares of common stock may adversely affect prevailing market prices, if any, for the common stock and could impair the Company's ability to raise additional capital through the sale of its equity securities. The Company may use consultants and other third parties providing goods and services or additional capital. These consultants or third parties may be paid in cash, stock, options or other securities of the Company, and the consultants or third parties may be Placement Agents or their affiliates.

RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK

Our stock price may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

	·	changes in the healthcare industry;
	·	competitive pricing pressures;
	·	our ability to obtain working capital financing;
	·	additions or departures of key personnel;
	·	limited "public float", in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales, could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;
	·	our ability to execute our business plan;
	·	operating results that fall below expectations;
	·	loss of any strategic relationship;
	·	regulatory developments;
	·	economic and other external factors; and
	·	period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting us at such time as our board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

There is currently established market for our common stock, and we cannot ensure that one will ever develop or be sustained.

The Company's common stock is available for trading on the OTC Pink. Management considers the market for our common stock to be limited. We can provide no assurances that an established trading market for our common stock will exist in the future.

Our common stock is deemed a "penny stock", which may make it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares.

Our common stock is subject to the "penny stock" rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The penny stock rules apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share or that have tangible net worth of less than $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than "established customers" complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If we remain subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for our securities. In as much as our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of our securities.

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or upon the expiration of any holding period under Rule 144, or expiration of lock-up periods applicable to outstanding shares, or issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an "overhang" and in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company is utilizing on a temporary basis rent free, as a central mailing address as its principal executive office, space located at 10624 S. Eastern Avenue, Ste. A209, Henderson, NV 89052.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no legal proceedings pending or threatened against us, and we are unaware of any governmental authority initiating a proceeding against us, except as follows:

A Complaint was filed with the United States District Court, Southern District of New York by Steven Safran as Plaintiff against the Company and Douglas Beplate, its CEO, as Defendant. This court case was transferred to the United States District Court in Las Vegas, Nevada. Mr. Safran is seeking damages and monies allegedly owed pursuant to an employment agreement and allegedly unpaid loans of $245,824 provided to Defendants. The Company has denied Plaintiff’s allegations and intends to vigorously defend said lawsuit. The parties have held various depositions and the Company has a motion to dismiss which is pending with the court.

In July 2015, the Company entered into a consulting agreement retaining the services of Maxim Group LLC. An amended agreement was executed in January 2018. A total of 4 million shares of common stock were issued to Maxim in exchange for its obligation to perform certain advisory and other services. In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company notified Maxim of its intent to file for arbitration pursuant to the consulting agreement. Maxim, without providing a similar notice to the Company, immediately filed a complaint with FINRA seeking release of a restrictive legend from a Company stock certificate in the amount of 500,000 shares. The Company filed an affirmative defense that the required notice of arbitration was not provided to the Company prior to filing. The Company also filed a counterclaim for breach of contract seeking restitution of the original 4 million shares issued to Maxim. The Company intends to vigorously defend Maxim’s complaint and to obtain relief pursuant to its counterclaim. Currently, the Company and Maxim have a scheduled mediation date of April 15, 2019. If this is not successful, we will be arbitrating our case at FINRA in September.

We have become aware that Philip Forman, who served in positions as Chairman, a director, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Advisor at various time between 2011 and October 2015, has filed a lawsuit against the Company and our Chief Executive Officer, Douglas Beplate, in the United States District Court of the District of Nevada. Neither the Company nor our Chief Executive Officer has been served in this action as of the time this Annual Report was filed. The claimant is claiming, among other things, that: the June 25, 2015 Amendment to his November 10, 2014 Employment Agreement with the Company, which terminated the Employment Agreement on October 1, 2015, is not valid because of lack of consideration; that a July 22, 2015 Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the claimant sold Company shares issued to him under the Amendment to a third a party is unenforceable (despite the fact that all payment for the shares under the Stock Purchase Agreement was made); that the plaintiff’s 2014 Employment Agreement is enforceable and that he is entitled to cash and stock compensation under that Employment Agreement (without giving regard to the Amendment); that if the Amendment is enforceable, he is entitled to the shares issued under the Amendment (without mention that those shares were sold to a third party under the Stock Purchase Agreement described above); and that the Company and Mr. Beplate defrauded the plaintiff relating to the foregoing. The plaintiff is seeking declaratory judgment regarding the parties’ relative rights under the Employment Agreement, the Amendment and the Stock Purchase Agreement; money damages of no less than $2,795,000; and punitive damages of $8,280,000. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the matters claimed as well as counterclaims against the claimant. If the Company is served the summons and complaint in this matter, we plan to vigorously respond to the claims and pursue our remedies. If this action is served upon us, due to uncertainties inherent in litigation generally, we could not predict the outcome with certainty.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Not applicable.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with ''Selected Financial Data'' and our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K. This discussion and analysis contain forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under 'Risk Factors' and elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K.

Results of Operations

Year ended December 31, 2018 versus year ended December 31, 2017

During the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had $45,862 and $645,652 of revenues, respectively. The decrease in revenues is due to a change in focus and a pivot of all the Company’s energy in making our technology and product more commercially viable, by attempting to obtain FDA class III approval for internal surgical purposes. This process requires 100% of the Company’s resources and energy so the focus was removed from sales and marketing and full attention was focused on the FDA process. The reason for this change is that the Company believes the greatest value to its shareholders would come from this FDA class III approval for general surgical use. The anticipated completion of the human trials is expected to allow the Company to foster interest from potential merger and acquisition candidates. Also, with the Company’s focus on an acquisition partner, the Company did not want to engage new distribution partners that may create conflicts with the new prospective acquisition companies and tie their hands from a revenue or branding perspective. However, if a merger and acquisition candidate is identified current vendor and future relationships and all pending purchase orders will be handed to the acquiring company for its facilitation. No assurances can be given that the Company will complete a transaction with a merger candidate on terms satisfactory to us, if at all.

Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $2,326,731 and $1,297,954, respectively. The increase in operating expenses is due primarily to an increase in research and development expenses of approximately $57,000, an increase in advertising and marketing expenses of approximately $124,000, an increase of approximately $410,000 in consulting/professional fees, which includes the Company issuing 850,000 shares of common stock valued at $674,500, including 800,000 shares to eight medical advisors, $447,574 in bad debt expense and an increase of approximately $35,700 in travel expenses.

Other income (expense) for 2018 and 2017 was ($3,628,565) and ($215,650), respectively. The increase in other expense was due to the Company issuing a total of 3,500,000 shares of common stock to settle notes payable balance of $172,500 and $10,000 of accrued interest. The Company recorded a $3,632,500 loss on settlement of debt related to this transaction. During 2017, the Company issued 2,500,000 shares of common stock to settle notes payable balance of $162,500 and accounts payable balance of $31,850. The fair value of the stock issued was $379,000 and the Company recorded loss on debt settlement of $184,650. The Company had $0 interest expense in 2018 due to paying off its notes payable in the first quarter of 2018 compared to $31,000 interest expense in 2017.

Our net loss for the 2018 was $6,006,135 as compared to a net loss of $934,968 for the prior year. The increase in the net loss is due to the decrease in revenues for the reasons described above and shares issued for services of $674,500 as mentioned above along with the issuance of 3,500,000 shares of common stock to settle $172,500 of outstanding notes payable and $10,000 of accrued interest. The Company recorded a $3,632,500 loss on settlement of debt related to this transaction. The Company also recorded bad debt expense of $447,574 and wrote-off $60,789 of inventory during 2018 and these transactions did not occur in 2017.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had a negative working capital of $352,700. The Company has not as yet attained a level of operations which allows it to meet its current overhead and may not attain profitable operations within the next few business operating cycles, nor is there any assurance that such an operating level can ever be achieved. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our 2018 and 2017 financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. While the Company has funded its initial operations with private placements, and secured loans from related parties, there can be no assurance that adequate financing will continue to be available to the Company and, if available, on terms that are favorable to the Company. Our ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on many events outside of our direct control, including, among other things, our ability to achieve our business goals and objectives, as well as improvement in the economic climate.

Cash Flows

The Company's cash on hand at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $31,273 and $189,942, respectively.

During fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, the Company had net cash used in operating activities of $1,273,662 and $645,900, respectively. The Company had net loss of $6,006,135 offset by stock issued for services of $674,500, write off inventory of $60,789, bad debt expense of $447,574, expenses paid by an officer of $30,000 and loss on settlement of debt of $3,632,500. The Company also had an increase in accounts receivable of $10,614, a decrease in inventory of $19,051, a decrease in prepaids and other current assets of $12,114, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $71,941 and a decrease in accrued liabilities – related party of $61,500. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,114,993. This was due to the Company receiving $1,415,200 in proceeds from the sale of stock and repaying a net amount of $290,207 in related party advances and $10,000 in notes payable.

During 2017, the Company incurred a net loss of $934,968, and increase in accounts receivable of $362,569, an increase in inventory of $101,566 and an increase in prepaid and other current assets of $12,114 offset by $429,000 in stock for services, $184,650 in loss on debt settlement, $20,226 in bad debt expense and an increase in inventory of $44,941 and an increase in accrued liabilities – related party of $86,500. Net cash provided by financing activities was $806,475. The Company received net proceeds from related party of $90,000, net proceeds on notes payable of $32,500 and $683,975 from the sale of common stock.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2018, and 2017, we have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Related Parties

Information concerning related party transactions is included in the financial statements and related notes, appearing elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its HemoStyp product by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company issues restricted stock to consultants and employees for various services. Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the common stock for non-employees is measured at the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached and expense is recognized during the term at which the counterparty's performance is earned or at the date the shares are considered non-forfeitable. The Company recognized consulting expenses and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services. Compensation for employee stock grants are recognized at the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant and recognized at the grant date, as it is considered that the shares issued are considered non-forfeitable at the date of grant. Stock compensation for the periods presented were issued for past services provided, accordingly, all shares issued are fully vested, and there is no unrecognized compensation associated with these transactions.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

The financial statements required by Item 8 can be found beginning on Page F-2 of this report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of United Health Products, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of United Health Products, Inc., (the Company) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Consideration of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred losses, has not generated sufficient revenue to cover its operating costs, and may be unable to raise further equity in support of operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If the Company is unable to obtain financing, there could be a material adverse effect on the Company.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

UNITED HEALTH PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANY

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017

Note 1. Organization and Basis of Preparation

United Health Products, Inc. ("United" or the "Company") is a product development and solutions company focusing its growth initiatives on the expanding wound-care industry and disposable medical supplies markets. The Company produces an innovative gauze product that absorbs exudate (fluids which have been discharged from blood vessels) by forming a gel-like substance upon contact.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred recurring net losses, negative working capital and operations have not provided cash flows. Additionally, the Company does not currently have sufficient revenue producing operations to cover its operating expenses and meet its current obligations. In view of these matters, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends on financing its future development activities and its working capital needs largely from the sale of public equity securities with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including term notes until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Chief Executive Officer has agreed to advance funds or make payments of the Company's obligations at his discretion. There is no written agreement to continue this support.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, as well as in the healthcare industry, and any other parameters used in determining these estimates, could cause actual results to differ.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

F-6

Fair Value Measurements

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. We value assets and liabilities included in this level using dealer and broker quotations, bid prices, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2018 and 2017. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using a method that requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for expected future tax consequences of temporary differences that currently exist between tax bases and financial reporting bases of the Company's assets and liabilities which is commonly known as the asset and liability method. In assessing the ability to realize deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company evaluates its tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are ''more-likely-than-not'' of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold are recorded as an expense in the applicable year. The Company does not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. Management's evaluation of uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof, with due consideration given to the fact that tax periods are open to examination by tax authorities. The Company is no longer subject to U.S federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities before 2015.

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company has approximately $14.5 and $12.1 million of net operating loss carry-forwards, respectively, available to affect future taxable income and has established a valuation allowance equal to the tax benefit of the net operating loss carry forwards and temporary differences as realization of the asset is not assured.

Trade Accounts Receivable and Concentration Risk

We record accounts receivable at the invoiced amount and we do not charge interest. We review the accounts receivable by amounts due from customers which are past due, to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, we make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. We will also maintain a sales allowance to reserve for potential credits issued to customers. We will determine the amount of the reserve based on historical credits issued.

There was no provision for doubtful accounts recorded at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The Company recorded $447,574 and $20,226 in bad debt expense for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

F-7

For the year ended December 31, 2018, three customers made up 98.9% of the Company’s outstanding accounts receivable balance. For the year ended December 31, 2018 four customers accounted for 91.5% of the Company’s net revenue.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, one customer made up 99.9% of the Company’s outstanding accounts receivable balance. For the year ended December 31, 2017 one customer accounted for 93.2% of the Company’s net revenue.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventory on the balance sheet consists of raw materials purchased by the Company and finished goods.

	December 31, 2018		December 31, 2017
Raw materials	$	46,121	$	34,270
Finished goods		37,573		129,264
	$	83,694	$	163,534

During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company determined $60,789 and $0, respectively, of inventory should be impaired and written-off to cost of goods sold.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred $176,999 and $53,050 in advertising and marketing costs during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company includes shipping and handling cost as part of cost of goods sold.

Research and Development

The Company charges research and development costs to expense when incurred. The Company incurred $76,951 and $19,936 in research and development expenses during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Stock Based Compensation

In January 2018, the Company issued 14,150,000 shares of common stock and placed them in escrow during the period. The shares are to be issued to various individuals upon change of control of the Company. The Company is unable to estimate when a change of control may occur and has not recorded any expenses related to these shares. The shares were valued at their fair market value of $1.09 per share totaling $15,423,500 on the then date of issuance.

F-8

Per Share Information

Basic earnings per share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the shares of common stock held in escrow. The dilutive effect of potential common shares is not reflected in diluted earnings per share because the Company incurred a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the effect of including these potential common shares in the net loss per share calculations would be anti-dilutive.

The total potential common shares as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 include 14,150,000 and 0, respectively, of common stock held in escrow until a change of control in the Company occurs.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition

The standard became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018 and permits two methods of adoption: the full retrospective method, which requires the standard to be applied to each prior period presented, or the modified retrospective method, which requires the cumulative effect of adoption to be recognized as an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective method. There was no effect for any adjustments to retained earnings upon adoption of the standard on January 1, 2018.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. ASU 2016-02, Leases, which amends existing lease accounting guidance, including the requirement to recognize most lease arrangements on the balance sheet. The adoption of this standard will result in the Company recognizing a right-of-use asset representing its rights to use the underlying asset for the lease term with an offsetting lease liability. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement to its financial statements.

The Company considers all new pronouncements and management has determined that there have been no other recently adopted or issued accounting standards that had or will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

Note 3. Related Party Transactions

As of December 31, 2018, and 2017, notes payable to related parties totaled $8,121 and $268,328, respectively. These amounts are owed to Doug Beplate, our Chief Executive Officer. During the year ended December 31, 2018, Mr. Beplate gave a personal vehicle to an employee of the Company valued at $30,000 in lieu of the Company paying travel expenses and consulting expenses. During 2018, the Company repaid a net amount of $305,207 of the outstanding notes payable balance. During the year ended December 31, 2017, Mr. Beplate provided loans to the Company of $111,500. These loans were for operating expenses of the Company, are due on demand and have no interest rate.

Per Mr. Beplate’s services agreement, he receives monthly compensation of $15,000 per month. During the year ended December 31, 2017, he received $93,500 of compensation and the remaining balance of $86,500 was recorded as accrued liabilities – related party on the balance sheet. During the year ended December 31, 2018, he received his entire salary of $180,000 and $61,500 of the accrued compensation was paid leaving a balance of $25,000.

F-9

It is intended that the board approved stock bonus package will be in lieu of the 5% stock bonus that Mr. Beplate is already entitled to in the event of a sale of the Company’s assets or change in control or merger transaction per his services agreement. See “Note 9” below.

Note 4. Issuances of Securities

Note 6. Material Agreements and Other Matters

On October 1, 2013, the Company entered into an Operating Agreement with Hemo Manufacturing LLC.

Note 8. Income Tax

The Company accounts for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"). Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act) was enacted into law including a one-time mandatory transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings and a reduction of the corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018, among others. We are required to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment, such as determining the transition tax, remeasuring our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as reassessing the net realizability of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company does not have any foreign earnings and therefore, we do not anticipate the impact of a transition tax. We have remeasured our U.S. deferred tax assets at a statutory income tax rate of 21%.

The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to its income tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the provisions of Section 740-10-25 for the years ended December 31, 2018 or 2017.The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. No such interest or penalties were recognized during the period presented. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2018.

The Company's federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2018 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service as of December 31, 2018.

During 2018 and 2017, the Company incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved.

F-12

As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company has taxable net loss carryovers of approximately $14.5 million and $12.1 million, respectively. The change in the valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $369,400 and $(1,289,200), respectively. The Company reduced its valuation allowance by approximately $1,485,200 during 2017 due to the change in tax rates to 21%. Under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, these losses can be carried forward twenty years. Net operating losses will expire through 2038.

Note 9. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events from December 31, 2018, through the date whereupon the financial statements were issued and has determined that there are no other material events that need to be disclosed, except as follows:

	·	200,000 shares were issued to securities counsel for services rendered;

	·	100,000 shares were issued in January 2019 to each of two directors;

	·	50,000 shares of common stock were issued to a private placement investor at $.50 per share; and

	·	2,150,000 shares of the 14,150,000 shares referenced in Note 3 became vested by the Board of Directors, including 1,600,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer/director, 500,000 shares to an office administrator and 50,000 shares to a Technical Product Supervisor, who is the son of the office administrator. The Company recorded an expense of $2,343,500 related to the vesting of these shares.

In March 2019, the Company canceled the 12,000,000 shares issued to various officers, directors and consultants described in Notes 3 and 4 herein and Mr. Beplate’s bonus arrangement described in Note 3 above. Contemporaneously, the Company replaced these stock bonus arrangements with Board approved restricted stock unit agreements with its officers, directors and consultants covering an aggregate of 50,100,000 shares of common stock to be issued and delivered to such persons upon the earlier of (i) a change in control of the Company by a cash tender offer, merger, acquisition or otherwise or (ii) the Company achieving gross revenues of $20,000,000 in gross revenues on a go forward basis, or (iii) the commencement of an event by a third party without the Board’s approval to effect, or seek to effect, a change in control of the Company or the Company’s management.

The Company has become aware that Philip Forman, who served in positions as Chairman, a director, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Advisor at various time between 2011 and October 2015, has filed a lawsuit against the Company and our Chief Executive Officer, Douglas Beplate, in the United States District Court of the District of Nevada. Neither the Company nor our Chief Executive Officer has been served in this action as of the time this Annual Report was filed. The claimant is claiming, among other things, that: the June 25, 2015 Amendment to his November 10, 2014 Employment Agreement with the Company, which terminated the Employment Agreement on October 1, 2015, is not valid because of lack of consideration; that a July 22, 2015 Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the claimant sold Company shares issued to him under the Amendment to a third a party is unenforceable (despite the fact that all payment for the shares under the Stock Purchase Agreement was made); that the plaintiff’s 2014 Employment Agreement is enforceable and that he is entitled to cash and stock compensation under that Employment Agreement (without giving regard to the Amendment); that if the Amendment is enforceable, he is entitled to the shares issued under the Amendment (without mention that those shares were sold to a third party under the Stock Purchase Agreement described above); and that the Company and Mr. Beplate defrauded the plaintiff relating to the foregoing. The plaintiff is seeking declaratory judgment regarding the parties’ relative rights under the Employment Agreement, the Amendment and the Stock Purchase Agreement; money damages of no less than $2,795,000; and punitive damages of $8,280,000. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the matters claimed as well as counterclaims against the claimant. If the Company is served the summons and complaint in this matter, we plan to vigorously respond to the claims and pursue our remedies. If this action is served upon us, due to uncertainties inherent in litigation generally, we could not predict the outcome with certainty.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

On March 29, 2018 (the “Resignation Date”) Pritchett, Siler and Hardy P.C. (“PSH”) resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company due to the sale of certain of PSH’s assets. On March 29, 2018, the Company engaged Haynie & Company, Salt Lake City, Utah, as its new independent registered public accounting firm. The change of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm from PSH to Haynie & Company was approved unanimously by our board of directors.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and in the subsequent interim period through the Resignation Date, the Company has not consulted with Haynie & Company regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Haynie & Company concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company needs to implement disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ''Exchange Act''), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of December 31, 2018, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an assessment, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b). As of the date of this assessment, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2018, because of the material weakness described below.

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed additional accounting and financial analyses and other post-closing procedures, including detailed validation work with regard to balance sheet account balances, additional analysis on income statement amounts and managerial review of all significant account balances and disclosures in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, to ensure that the Company's Annual Report and the financial statements forming part thereof are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Annual Report fairly present, in all material respects, the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the interim or annual financial statements.

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 policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018. In performing its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, management applied the criteria described in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (''COSO - 2013'').

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The material weakness identified during management's assessment was the lack of corporate documentation, inadequate reconciliation of accounts, lack of sufficient resources with SEC, generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and tax accounting expertise. These control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement of significant accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the Company's interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has determined that these control deficiencies constitute a material weakness.

Because of the material weakness, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO -2013.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no reported changes in internal control over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Mr. Beplate is entitled to an annual restricted stock bonus equal to 2 ½% of gross sales with the number of shares computed based upon the average closing sales price of the Company's common stock in the month of December of each year.

Review of Risks Arising from Compensation Policies and Practices

2013 Stock Option Plan

On August 8, 2013, the Board of Directors approved the 2013 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan which has 15,000,000 shares that may be issued under said Plan. The Plan provides for the direct issuance of shares of common stock under the Plan and for the grant of non-statutory stock options on terms established by the Board of Directors or committee thereof. While the Plan provides for incentive stock options, no incentive stock options may be granted under the Plan since no stockholder approval was obtained on or before August 8, 2014. In September 2013, the Company issued 6,000,000 shares of stock under said Plan to Douglas Beplate pursuant to his then consulting contract. The Company has not granted any options under the Plan since its approval.
