NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Statements made in this report that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements and should be evaluated as such. Investors are cautioned that such forward-looking statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management and involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our plans, strategies, objectives, expectations and intentions, which are subject to change at any time at our discretion. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business plan and strategies. Forward-looking statements include our assessment, from time to time of our competitive position, the industry environment, potential growth opportunities, the effects and events outside of our control, such as natural disasters, wars, epidemics or pandemics. Forward-looking statements often include words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “forecast,” “estimates,” “expects,” “suggest,” “hopes,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “targets,” “projects,” “projections,” “should,” “could,” “will,” “would” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions.

Where in any forward-looking statement we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of our management, expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or will be achieved or accomplished. The following include some, but not all, of the factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated:

	●	current economic conditions, including consumer spending levels and the price elasticity of our products;

	●	the highly competitive and evolving nature of the industry in which we compete;

	●	our ability to successfully manage social, political, economic, legal and other conditions affecting our operations and our supply chain sources, such as political instability and acts of war or terrorism, natural disasters, disruption of markets, operational disruptions, changes in import or export laws, currency restrictions and currency exchange rate fluctuations;

	●	the impact of the loss of one or more of our suppliers of finished goods or raw materials;

	●	our ability to manage our inventory effectively and reduce inventory reserves;

	●	our ability to optimize our global supply chain;

	●	our ability to distribute our products effectively through our ecommerce store and through our growing wholesale distribution channel;

	●	our ability to keep pace with changing consumer preferences;

	●	the impact of any inadequacy, interruption or failure with respect to our information technology or any data security breach;

	●	our ability to protect our reputation and the reputation and images of our licensed and any future proprietary brand(s);

	●	unanticipated changes in our tax rates or exposure to additional income tax liabilities or a change in our ability to realize deferred tax benefits;

	●	our ability to comply with environmental and other laws and regulations;

	●	changes in our relationship with our employees and costs and adverse publicity from violations of labor or environmental laws by us or our suppliers;

	●	our ability to attract and retain key personnel; and

	●	our ability to integrate and grow potential acquisitions successfully.

The reader should understand that the uncertainties and other factors listed above or identified elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report are not a comprehensive list of all the uncertainties and other factors that may affect forward-looking statements. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or the list of uncertainties and other factors that could affect those statements. You should, however, consult further disclosures and risk factors we include in Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports filed on Form 8-K.

CONDENSED NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Founded in October 2018 and headquartered in Florida with remote employees and specialty contractors in London, New York and Latin America, MGO Global Inc. (“MGO,” “MGO Global,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us”) has built a brand acceleration platform with a focus on the acquisition, optimization and monetization of consumer brands across multiple categories. Our mission is to provide customers with unmatched variety, quality and shopping experience, while adding considerable value for MGO’s shareholders.

Our accomplished leadership team encompasses decades of experience in building successful global lifestyle brands, including fashion design, marketing, technology, corporate finance and branding. We strive to continually push innovation and evolution of the consumer product cycle without compromising quality and design integrity. Through our end-to-end, scalable brand-building platform, backed by robust consumer behavioral data, we are engaged in nurturing digitally native brands that will thrive in the modern Direct to Consumer (“DTC”) economy.

We operate our business through three subsidiaries: Americana Liberty, LLC; MGO Digital LLC and MGOTeam1, LLC (“MGOTeam1”).

On July 18, 2024, the Company effected a reverse stock split on the Company’s common stock at a ratio of 1-for-10.

Stand Flagpoles/Americana Liberty, LLC

On March 13, 2023, we obtained a royalty-free, worldwide and exclusive license (the “License”) to the use of certain assets of Stand Co., LLC (“Stand”) for all purposes in exchange for payment of $1.00 by the Company. The license is in perpetuity. Licensed assets include all rights to all stock keeping units (“SKU”) of Stand sold under the names: “Roosevelt Premium 25 foot Telescoping Flag Pole Kit,” “20 Foot Telescoping Flag Pole Kit” and “LED Solar Flag Pole Light;” any intellectual property and other intangible property related to SKUs, including but not limited to all rights to the brand name Stand Flagpoles, domain and website www.standflagpoles.com, the Meta pages associated with Stand Flagpoles brand name (in Facebook and Instagram); all manufacturer, distributor and customer contracts and relationships for SKUs; marketing materials; any commercialization rights; domain and administrative access to Stand’s Shopify account, Facebook Assets & Accounts; all historical digital and non-digital assets; and customer database since inception.

In support of our flagpole business, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Americana Liberty, LLC (“Americana Liberty”), on March 13, 2023, which was created to advertise and sell the licensed line of Stand Flagpoles and other related products, along with an expanding line of patriotic-themed products to be developed and marketed to consumers under our new Americana Liberty brand.

In addition, on May 11, 2023, we executed a 12-month consulting agreement with Jason Harward, the owner of Stand Co. and nephew of our former Chief Marketing Officer of the Company. The consultant shall furnish the Company with business continuity and consulting services, substantially similar to the following: provide general advice and counsel regarding the establishment of systems and processes for direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) and e-commerce sales and operations; provide subject matter and product-level expertise in the area of flag-poles, flags, and related products; provide consultation regarding product sourcing and distribution; and assist with the establishment, operation, optimization, and maintenance of DTC and e-commerce platforms on behalf of the Company. Consultant was compensated for services through a combination of cash or immediately available funds and restricted stock units or shares of the Company’s stock as follows: (1) cash in the amount of $150,000, paid on September 30, 2023; (2) cash in the amount of $200,000, paid on January 10, 2024, upon satisfactory performance of the consultant’s obligations under the agreement; and (3) 15,000 restricted stock units of the Company issuable on May 11, 2023. $51,587 and $109,679 were recorded as stock-based compensation expense for the fair value of the restricted stock units awarded as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The consulting agreement ended May 2024.

MGO Digital LLC

In November 2022, we formed MGO Digital LLC to leverage data analytics, advanced technology-enabled marketing and our leadership team’s industry relationships and expertise to identify, incubate and test market new proprietary brands and brand concepts.

The Messi Store/MGOTeam 1 LLC

MGOTeam1 designed, manufactured, licensed, distributed, advertised and sold a range of products under the soccer legend Lionel (“Leo”) Messi brand, Messi Brand. The Messi Brand is a premium lifestyle brand with a sporty edge and sold its products direct to consumers through the website www.themessistore.com.

In October 2018, the Company entered into a Trademark License Agreement with Leo Messi Management SL (“LMM”). LMM granted the Company a worldwide non-exclusive license in order to use Leo Messi’s trademarks with the purpose of developing, manufacturing, trading and promoting the Messi Brand products.

On November 20, 2021, the Company entered into a new Trademark License Agreement (“Messi License”) with LMM to have the worldwide license to use Leo Messi’s trademarks for the purpose of developing, manufacturing, marketing and promoting his products. The Company is to pay LMM a minimum guaranteed amount on account of royalties amounting to Four Million Euros (€4,000,000) over the four-year agreement, net of taxes with the last payment due on November 15, 2024.

On March 21, 2024, MGOTeam1 assigned the Messi License to Centric Brands, LLC (“Centric”), which paid MGOTeam1 $2,000,000 in cash and assumed the obligation to pay the minimum guaranteed amount due to LMM in 2024.

On June 18, 2024, MGO entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Heidmar, Inc., (“HMI”), a company organized under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands; Heidmar Maritime Holdings Corp., a company organized under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands (“Holdings”); HMR Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings (“Merger Sub”); and Rhea Marine Ltd. and Maistros Shipinvest Corp (the “HMI Shareholders”). The Company, Merger Sub, Holdings, HMI and HMI Shareholders are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.”

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Parties will effect a business combination involving the following transactions (collectively, the “Business Combination”):

	(a)	Merger Sub will merge (the “Merger”) with and into the MGO, with MGO continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings;
	(b)	all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of MGO (the “MGO Common Stock”) prior to the effective time of the Merger will be converted into the right to receive common shares of Holdings (the “Holdings Common Shares”) on a one-for-one basis;
	(c)	immediately after the effective time of the Merger, the HMI Shareholders will transfer all the outstanding shares of common stock of HMI (the “HMI Shares”) to Holdings (the “HMI Share Acquisition”), with HMI becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings; and
	(d)	Holdings shall issue to the HMI Shareholders (i) at the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), a number of Holdings Common Shares equal to (x) the number of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock on a fully diluted and as-converted basis immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, times (y) 16.6667, divided by (z) the number of outstanding HMI Shares immediately prior to the HMI Share Acquisition and (ii) after the Closing and upon the satisfaction of certain earnout conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, additional Holdings Common Shares equal to 10% of the shares issued to the Heidmar Shareholders on the Closing.

MGO expects that the holders of MGO Common Stock and the Heidmar Shareholders will hold 5.66% and 94.34% (inclusive of shares to be distributed to advisors), respectively, of the Holdings Common Shares after the Closing, which is expected to occur late in the fourth quarter of 2024.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and include all normal reoccurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1, 2024 and June 3, 2024, respectively. Interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

MGOTeam1 was formed on October 11, 2018, and the Company entered into a Rollover Agreement by and among MGOTeam1 and members of MGOTeam1 on December 6, 2021. All of the members of MGOTeam1, except for one member who owns a 11.82% membership interest in MGOTeam1, exchanged all of their membership interests in MGOTeam1 for 881,800 shares of the Company’s common stock. A sole MGOTeam1 member did not rollover its 11.82% membership interest in MGOTeam1 to the Company as of December 6, 2021, and remains a member in MGOTeam1.

We account for the 11.82% minority interest in MGOTeam1 as non-controlling interest. Both the Company and MGOTeam1 were under common control, the series of contractual arrangements between the Company and MGOTeam1 on December 6, 2021 constituted a reorganization under common control and are required to be retrospectively applied to the consolidated financial statements at their historical amounts.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to reflect the impact of the discontinued operations treatment in order to conform to the current period presentation. In addition, on July 18, 2024, the Company effected a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-10. Accordingly, the financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split historically.

Discontinued Operations

On March 20, 2024, MGOTeam1 entered into a term sheet with Centric, providing for the terms and conditions for MGOTeam1 to assign and Centric to assume the existing Trademark License Agreement (“License Agreement”), dated November 21, 2021, with an expiration date of December 31, 2024 (“Expiration Date”), between Leo Messi Management SL (“LMM”) and MGOTeam1. Pursuant to the term sheet, Centric assumed the Company’s minimum guarantee obligation to LMM under the License Agreement for payment due dates in 2024 amounting to €1,500,000. MGO received full payment of the $2,000,000 consideration on March 22, 2024.

On March 21, 2024, the Company, Centric and LMM signed a Deed of Novation, Assignment and Assumption (the “Deed”) providing for MGOTeam1 to assign all of its rights and obligations under the License Agreement to Centric, and Centric has agreed to assume all of MGO’s rights and obligations in respect of the License Agreement with effect on and from March 21, 2024. No other assets or liabilities were assumed. See Note 10

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported amounts of 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. Our most critical estimates include those related to stock-based compensation, inventory and inventory allowance valuation. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The Company maintains its cash with high credit quality financial institutions; at times, such balances with any one financial institution may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $870,992 and $586,446 in excess of the FDIC limit for cash from continuing operations, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivables are carried at their estimated collectible amounts, net of any estimated allowances for credit losses. We grant unsecured credit to our wholesale customers who are deemed creditworthy. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed, and potential credit losses estimated by management are charged to operations on a regular basis. At the time any particular account receivable is deemed uncollectible, the balance is charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no allowance for credit losses from continuing operations.

Inventory

Inventory consists of raw materials and finished goods ready for sale and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We value inventories using the weighted average costing method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. We regularly review inventory and consider forecasts of future demand, market conditions and product obsolescence. If the estimated realized value of our inventory is less than cost, we make provisions in order to reduce its carrying value to its estimated net realizable value. The write downs are recognized as a component of cost of sales. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no reserve for inventory obsolescence impairment from continuing operations.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the productivity capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed. When equipment is retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in income. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method, based on useful lives of the assets which is three years for computers, equipment and software. Depreciation expense from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $54,384 and $21,817, respectively.

Classification	Useful Life	June 30, 2024 (unaudited)			December 31, 2023
Computer equipment and software	3 years	$	309,286		$	308,774
Furniture	3 years		17,191			17,191
Property and equipment, gross
Less: Accumulated depreciation			(60,887	)		(6,503	)
Property and equipment, net		$	265,590		$	319,462

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange for those goods. The Company recognizes revenues following the five step model prescribed under ASU No. 2014-09: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation.

Revenue transactions associated with the sale of Stand Flagpoles products comprise a single performance obligation, which consists of the sale of products to customers either through direct wholesale or online sales through our website www.standflagpoles.com. We satisfy the performance obligation and record revenues when transfer of control to the customer has occurred, based on the terms of sale. A customer is considered to have control once they are able to direct the use and receive substantially all of the benefits of the product. Control is transferred to wholesale customers upon shipment or upon receipt depending on the country of the sale and the agreement with the customer. Control transfers to online customers at the time upon receipt of the goods. The transactions price is determined based upon the invoiced sales price, less anticipated sales returns, discounts and miscellaneous claims from customers. Payment terms for wholesale transactions depend on the country of sale or agreement with the customer and payment is generally required within 30 days or less of shipment to or receipt by the wholesale customer. Payment is due at the time of sale for direct wholesale and online transactions.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company generated revenues of $1,425,589 and $2,095,853 and $1,724,293 and $1,769,440, respectively, directly from consumers via our website. The Company does not have any major customers as revenue is primarily direct to individual consumers. All revenues for June 30, 2024 and 2023 were generated by customers within the United States. There were no sales to customers outside of the United States during either reporting period.

Non-Controlling Interest

As of December 6, 2021, one shareholder did not rollover its 11.82% membership interest in MGOTeam1. According to ASC 810, Consolidation, the carrying amount of the non-controlling interest (“NCI”) will be adjusted to reflect the change in the NCI’s ownership interest in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which the NCI is adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized in additional paid in capital and attributed to the equity holders of the parent. The Company accounted for this portion of shares as non-controlling interest in net loss of $3,963 and $60,687 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively; and net income of $223,844 and a net loss of $122,756 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively

Foreign Currency

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. The resulting monetary assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates prevailing on the subsequent balance sheet date. Revenue and expense components are translated to U.S. dollars at weighted-average exchange rates in effect during the period. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from remeasurement are recognized in other income, net within the consolidated statements of operations.

Segment Reporting

On March 21, 2024, the Company discontinued operations of The Messi Store due to the Deed executed with Centric, LMM and the Company. As such, the Company is no longer required to provide segment reporting, as the Company has only one reportable segment as of June 30, 2024.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax law. For deferred tax assets, management evaluates the probability of realizing the future benefits of such assets. The Company establishes valuation allowances for its deferred tax assets when evidence suggests it is unlikely that the assets will be fully realized.

The Company recognizes the tax effects of an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not to be sustained based solely on its technical merits as of the reporting date and then only in an amount more likely than not to be sustained upon review by the tax authorities. Income tax positions that previously failed to meet the more likely than not threshold is recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more likely than not threshold is derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. The Company classifies potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as income tax expense.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-07 – Segment Reporting (Topic ASC 280) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The ASU improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosure about significant segment expenses. The enhancements under this update require disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, require disclosure of other segment items by reportable segment and a description of the composition of other segment items, require annual disclosures under ASC 280 to be provided in interim periods, clarify use of more than one measure of segment profit or loss by the CODM, require that the title of the CODM be disclosed with an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of segment profit or loss to make decisions, and require that entities with a single reportable segment provide all disclosures required by this update and required under ASC 280. ASU 2023-07 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASC 280 on January 1, 2024 and ASC 280 does not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 – Income Taxes (Topic ASC 740) Income Taxes. The ASU improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 will become effective at the beginning of our 2025 fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. We do not expect that this guidance will have a material impact upon our financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

In the pursuit of MGO’s long-term growth strategy and the development of its growing portfolio of brands, the Company has incurred continued operating losses. As of June 30, 2024, we had working capital of $1,700,344. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred losses from continuing operations of $4,306,223 and $1,564,839, respectively, and cash used in operating activities of $3,223,920 and $4,026,327, respectively. We believe the cash on hand, in connection with cash generated from future revenue, may not be sufficient to sustain continued operating losses. These factors cause substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date these financial statements were made available.

On February 8, 2024, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (“S-3”) to provide our Company with the flexibility to issue and sell securities if and when deemed appropriate to support our ongoing business operations and in the best interest of our shareholders. The S-3 contained two prospectuses: i) a base prospectus that covers the potential offering, issuance and sale from time to time of our common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities and units in one or more offerings with a total value of up to $100,000,000; and ii) a sales agreement prospectus covering the potential offering, issuance and sale from time to time of shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $1,650,000 pursuant to an equity distribution agreement entered into with the New York-based investment banking firm, Maxim Group LLC (“At-the-Market Offering” or “ATM”). On June 7, 2024, MGO entered into an Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment”) to the equity distribution agreement for the ATM whereby the offering size was amended to reflect an increase in the aggregate gross sales price from $1,650,000 to $3,389,384. As of June 30, 2024, we received net proceeds from sales of our common stock pursuant to the ATM totaling an aggregate of $1,665,533.

Nasdaq Deficiency Notices, Hearings Panel Determinations and Reverse Stock Split

On April 17, 2024, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that 180 calendar day period that it had been provided by Nasdaq to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) on April 16, 2024 did not result in the Company regaining compliance. As a consequence, the Company is not eligible for a second 180 day period, because the Company does not meet the $5,000,000 minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. In addition, the Notice informed the Company that in light of the foregoing and in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(2)(A), the Nasdaq staff could no longer accept a plan for the Company to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) and this matter has become an additional and separate basis for delisting the Company’s securities from Nasdaq.

The Notice further stated unless the Company requests an appeal of the above determination by April 24, 2024, Nasdaq has determined that the Company’s securities will be scheduled for delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market and will be suspended at the opening of business on April 26, 2024, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the SEC, which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market.

On April 18, 2024, the Company formally requested a hearing before Nasdaq’s Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) and such request was granted by Nasdaq on April 19, 2024. The hearing date is scheduled for May 30, 2024.

On May 30, 2024, senior members of MGO’s executive team and the Company’s SEC counsel participated in the hearing before the Nasdaq’s Hearings Panel and endeavored to address all questions and concerns posed by the panelists relating to the Company’s plan to regain compliance with the continued listing standards (the “Plan”) – the Plan was formally submitted to the members of the Nasdaq Hearings Panel on May 8, 2024. In accordance with the Plan, MGO requested at least until August 15, 2024 to evidence compliance with the Equity Rule and Bid Price Rule for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market through execution of the Plan.

On June 14, 2024, MGO received notice from Nasdaq confirming that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) has determined to grant the request of MGO to continue its listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market subject to the following:

1. On or before July 15, 2024, the Company will effect a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-10. See Note 1 and 11.

2. On or before August 15, 2024, the Company will (a) complete the transactions described to the Panel to achieve compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (or its alternatives) and (b) demonstrate compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) by evidencing a closing bid price of $1.00 or more per share for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive trading sessions;

3. On or before August 21, 2024, the Company must file a Form 8-K describing these transactions and indicating its post-transaction equity. The Company may do so with a balance sheet no older than 60 days containing pro forma adjustments for significant transactions or events occurring on or before the report date. Alternatively, the Company can provide an affirmative statement that, as of the date of the report, it believes it has regained compliance with the stockholders’ equity requirement based upon the specific transactions or events described; and

4. At the time of filing the Form 8-K, the Company must demonstrate compliance with all other applicable requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. See Note 11.

The Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K on August 12, 2024, stating that the Company believes that it is in compliance with the Nasdaq minimum stockholders’ equity requirement as of August 9, 2024.

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock

On January 12, 2023, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Boustead Securities, LLC, as representative of the underwriters, relating to the Company’s initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 172,500 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“common stock”), which included the exercise by the underwriters in full of the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 22,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at an Offering price of $50.00 per share. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, in exchange for the Representative’s firm commitment to purchase the Shares, the Company agreed to sell the Shares to the Representative at a purchase price of $46.50 (93% of the public offering price per Share of $50.00) and issue the underwriters three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,625 shares of the Company’s common stock, which is equal to five percent (5%) of the Shares sold in the Offering. Such warrants have an exercise price of $6.25, which is equal to 125% of the Offering price (the “Warrant”).

The Shares were offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-268484), as amended (the “Registration Statement”), and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and the final prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Registration Statement was declared effective by the Commission on January 12, 2023. The closing of the Offering for the Shares took place on January 18, 2023 with net proceeds of $7,560,354, which included 22,500 shares sold by the Company upon the exercise by the underwriters of the over-allotment option in full. The Company used the net proceeds from the Offering for team expansion, marketing, general and administrative corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures.

In January 2023, the Company issued 70,000 shares to the Pre-IPO funding investors pursuant to the exercise of their warrants at fair value of $10.00 per share.

In January 2023, the Company issued 12,731 shares to Boustead Securities, LLC pursuant to the cashless exercise of their 16,448 warrants.

On January 13, 2023, in connection with the Offering, the Company commenced trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market under ticker symbol “MGOL.”

In February 2024, the Company issued 23,202 shares to its former Chief Marketing Officer pursuant to a Settlement Agreement and Release, valued at the stock price on the day of the executed Settlement Agreement, which was $4.31 on January 19, 2024. The related stock-based compensation of $99,999 was accrued as of December 31, 2023 and included in other accrued expenses as of the year ended December 31, 2023.

On April 12, 2024, the Board unanimously authorized and approved an amendment (“Plan Amendment”) to MGO’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”) to increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, (“Common Stock”) reserved for issuance under the 2022 Plan by an additional 182,451 shares of Common Stock. Such an increase will result in a total of 451,188 shares of Common Stock being reserved under the 2022 Plan, of which 205,071 will be available for future awards.

NOTE 9 – RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company is subject to credit, liquidity and market risks, as well as other payment-related risks, such as risks associated with the fraudulent use of credit or debit cards and customer banking information, which could have adverse effects on our business and revenues due to chargebacks from customers.

NOTE 10 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In accordance with ASC 205-20 Presentation of Financial Statements: Discontinued Operations, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major impact on an entity’s operations and financial results when the components of an entity meet the criteria in ASC paragraph 205-20-45-10. In the period in which the component meets the held for sale or discontinued operations criteria the major assets, other assets, current liabilities and non-current liabilities shall be reported as a component of total assets and liabilities separate from those balances of the continuing operations. At the same time, the results of all discontinued operations, less applicable income taxes (benefit), shall be reported as components of net income (loss) separate from the income (loss) of continuing operations.

On March 21, 2024, the Company, Centric and LMM signed a Deed of Novation, Assignment and Assumption (the “Deed”) providing for MGOTeam1 to assign all of its rights and obligations under the existing Trademark License Agreement to Centric, and Centric has agreed to assume all of MGO’s rights and obligations in respect of the License Agreement, and the minimum guaranteed royalty amount due to LMM, with effect on and from March 21, 2024.

As a result of the Deed, the Company ceased operations of The Messi Store. The historical results of this business segment have been reflected as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. The current asset and current liability balances as of June 30, 2024 constitute the wind-down of The Messi Store yet to be finalized.

Subsequent to the receipt of the $2,000,000 in proceeds from Centric, MGOTeam1 paid MGO Global, Inc. $2,000,000 for payment on a $2,658,635 Intercompany Demand Note. The remaining balance of the Intercompany Demand Note of $658,635 is eliminated in consolidation.

The Company, Merger Sub, Holdings, Heidmar and Heidmar Shareholders are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.”

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, MGO, Heidmar, Holdings, Merger Sub and the Heidmar Shareholders will effect a business combination involving the following Transactions (collectively, the “Business Combination”):

	(a)	Merger Sub will merge (the “Merger”) with and into MGO, with MGO continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings;
	(b)	all of the issued and outstanding MGO Shares prior to the effective time of the Merger will be converted into the right to receive Holdings Shares on a one-for-one basis;
	(c)	immediately after the effective time of the Merger, the Heidmar Shareholders will transfer all their Heidmar Shares to Holdings (the “Heidmar Share Acquisition”), with Heidmar becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings; and
	(a)	Holdings will issue to the Heidmar Shareholders and MGO’s financial advisor: (i) at the Closing (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), the Heidmar Share Consideration (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), and (ii) after the Closing and upon the satisfaction of certain earnout conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, the Earnout Shares (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), with 2.64% of each issuance being distributed to MGO’s financial advisor.

Following the Closing, both MGO and Heidmar will be wholly owned subsidiaries of Holdings, and the Holdings Shares will be publicly listed on Nasdaq. The parties expect that after the Closing, the Heidmar Shareholders will own 94.34% of Holdings (including shares that Holdings will distribute to MGO’s financial advisor) and the MGO stockholders will own 5.66% of Holdings, without taking into account the issuance of any Earnout Shares. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, any shares of common stock that MGO issues prior to the Closing will not change these percentages.

The boards of directors of both companies have unanimously approved the signing of the BCA. The Business Combination is expected to close late in the fourth quarter of 2024, subject to satisfying certain customary closing conditions, including the receipt of approvals from MGO’s stockholders and the listing of Holdings registered common shares on Nasdaq. For a more detailed description of the Business Combination, Heidmar, Holdings and the risk factors related to the Business Combination, please see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on June 20, 2024.

Nasdaq Deficiency Notices, Hearings Panel Determinations and Reverse Stock Split

On October 19, 2023, the Company received a letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) therein stating that for the 30 consecutive business day period between September 7, 2023 through October 18, 2023, the common stock of the Company had not maintained a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”). Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until April 16, 2024 (the “Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.

On April 5, 2024, the Company received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq stating that the Company is no longer in compliance with the equity standard for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) requires listed companies to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000 under the equity standard. Because the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023 reported stockholders’ equity of $921,747, and as of April 5, 2024 the Company does not meet the alternative standards for market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations, the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule. Nasdaq provided the Company with 45 calendar days, or until May 20, 2024, to submit a plan to regain compliance.

On April 17, 2024, the Company received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notifying the Company that 180 calendar day period that it had been provided by Nasdaq to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) on April 16, 2024 without the Company regaining compliance and is not eligible for a second 180 day period, because the Company does not meet the $5,000,000 minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. In addition, Nasdaq informed the Company that in light of the foregoing and in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(2)(A), the Nasdaq staff could no longer accept a plan for the Company to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) and this matter has become an additional and separate basis for delisting the Company’s securities from Nasdaq. On April 18, 2024, the Company formally requested a hearing before Nasdaq’s Hearings Panel and such request was granted by Nasdaq on April 19, 2024. A hearing before Nasdaq’s Hearings Panel was scheduled for May 30, 2024.

On May 30, 2024, Nasdaq held a hearing to make a determination on MGO’s continued listing in light of its non-compliance with above-referenced Nasdaq rules, which continued listing was granted subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including:

	●	on or before July 15, 2024, MGO will effect a reverse stock split at a ratio between 1-for-10 and 1-for-25, unless prior to such date MGO has been informed in writing by Nasdaq that it has regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2);

	●	on or before August 15, 2024, MGO will (x) complete the transactions described to Nasdaq Hearings Panel to achieve compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (or its alternatives) and (y) demonstrate compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) by evidencing a closing bid price of $1.00 or more per share for a minimum of ten consecutive trading sessions; and

	●	on or before August 21, 2024, MGO will file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing the transactions that have increased its stockholders’ equity and either (x) indicate that, through a balance sheet that is not older than 60 days and contains pro forma adjustments for the transactions, stockholders equity has increased to at least $2.5 million or (y) an affirmative statement that, as of the date of such report, it believes it has regained compliance with the stockholders’ equity requirement based upon the specific transactions or events described in such report.

On July 18, 2024, MGO effected a reverse stock split at a 1-for-10 ratio that resulted in 2,122,607 MGO shares of common stock being outstanding after the reverse stock split.

On August 12, 2024, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K stating that it believes that it is in compliance with the Nasdaq minimum stockholders’ equity requirement as of August 9, 2024.

Results of Operations for Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 as Compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Revenues

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, revenues decreased 17% to $1,425,589 from $1,724,293. The decrease over the prior year’s comparable period is attributable to the fact that the Company had a large marketing push at the end of the second quarter of 2023, which successfully increased revenue, however the return on marketing costs was below the Company’s desired threshold. Therefore, the Company made cognitive efforts to focus on a higher return on marketing costs subsequent to June 30, 2023. Revenues reported for the six months ended June 30, 2024 totaled $2,095,853, representing an 18% increase over revenues of $1,769,440 posted for the comparable six-month period in 2023. The increase over the prior year’s comparable three and six periods is primarily attributable to the fact that the Company did not launch sales of its Stand Flagpole line of products until mid-March 2023.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 decreased 32% to $346,356 from $508,861, respectively. This resulted in a gross profit of $1,079,233 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, which compared to $1,215,432 for the same three-month period in 2023. The 5% increase in gross profit was due to the Company optimizing sales prices while reducing purchasing costs.

For the reason mentioned above, cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 totaled $514,088, down 2% from $526,470 reported for the same six-month period in the prior year. This resulted in a 5% increase in gross profit of $1,581,765 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1,242,970 for the six-month ended June 30, 2023.

Operating Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, total operating expenses rose 213% to $2,496,148 as compared to total operating expenses of $797,485 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, due primarily to a 213% increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, which rose to $2,496,148 from $797,485, respectively; and a 22% decrease in marketing and e-commerce expenses, declining to $1,024,062 from $1,320,100, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses related to workforce expansion, stock-based compensation expenses which were not occurring in the prior year, and increased costs of legal and accounting expenses pertaining to executing capital raises during the quarter and advancing the business combination process with Heidmar. The decrease in marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 when compared to the prior year’s same three-month period is attributable to the fact that the Company had a large marketing push at the end of the second quarter of 2023, which successfully increased revenue, however the return on marketing costs was below the Company’s desired threshold. Therefore, the Company made cognitive efforts to focus on a higher return on marketing spend.

Total operating expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 was $5,887,524, representing a 107% increase compared to $2,837,685 in total operating expenses for the same six months in 2023. The increase was largely attributable to a 189% increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, which rose to $4,325,832 from $1,497,811, respectively; and a 17% increase in marketing and e-commerce expenses, which climbed to $1,561,692 from $1,339,874, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses related to workforce expansion, stock-based compensation expenses which were not occurring in the prior year, and increased costs of legal and accounting expenses pertaining to executing capital raises and advancing the business combination process with Heidmar during the first six months of 2024.

Other (Income) Expenses

Total other income (expenses) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was ($1,111) and ($464), respectively, compared to total other interest income of $29,820 and $29,876 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Net Loss

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, net loss from continuing operations was $2,442,088, a 180% increase from a net loss of $872,333 reported for the same three-month period in 2023. Net loss from discontinued operations decreased to $33,527 from a net loss of $525,872 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Overall, net loss totaled $2,475,615 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $1,398,205 for the same three-month period ended June 30, 2023. After factoring a net loss of $3,963 and a net loss of $60,687 for non-controlling interest for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, net loss attributable to MGO stockholders was $2,471,652, or $1.35. loss per share, and $1,337,518 or $0.94 loss per share, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net loss from continuing operations was $4,306,223, a 175% increase from a net loss of $1,564,839 reported for the same six-month period in 2023. Net income from discontinued operations rose to $1,893,771 from a net loss of $1,053,491 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as a result of the assignment of the Messi License to Centric. Overall, net loss totaled $2,412,452 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $2,618,330 posted for the same six-month period ended June 30, 2023. After factoring net income of $223,844 and a net loss of $122,756 for non-controlling interest for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, net loss attributable to MGO stockholders was $2,636,296, or $1.57 loss per share, and $2,495,574, or $1.79 loss per share, respectively.

Cash Flows

As of June 30, 2024, cash on hand from continuing operations was $1,301,585, as compared to $836,446 as of December 31, 2023, an increase of 56%. The increase was primarily attributable to the assignment of the Messi Brand to Centric in exchange for $2,000,000 in cash and their assumption of our obligation to pay €1.5 million in royalty payments to LMM in 2024, as well as net proceeds aggregating $1,665,534 received from the sale of our common stock pursuant to our At-The-Market Offering (“ATM”). Until such time that the Company fully implements its growth strategy or completes its business combination with Heidmar, it expects to continue generating operating losses in the foreseeable future, primarily due to higher corporate overhead, higher marketing and inventory expenses and costs associated with being a public company.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, cash used in operations was $3,223,920, a decrease of 20% as compared to cash used of $4,026,328 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to the assignment of the Messi Brand to Centric in exchange for $2,000,000 in cash and their assumption of our obligation to pay €1.5 million in royalty payments to Leo Messi Management in 2024.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations was $1,999,488, compared to cash used in investing activities of $137,614 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The 1553% decrease was due to no significant purchases of property and equipment occurring during the six months ended June 30, 2024, offset by the $2,000,000 in proceeds received from the assignment of the Messi Brand to Centric.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, cash provided by financing activities was $1,689,571, a decrease of 79% as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $8,183,515 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was directly related to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering in January 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2024, we had working capital of $1,700,344. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred a loss from operations of $4,305,759, inclusive of $4,325,832 for general and administrative expenses, including higher workforce expenses, stock-based compensation expense, third-party logistics services, professional fees and rent expense for office space, as well as $1,561,692 for increased marketing and ecommerce expenses.

On March 21, 2024, MGO assigned the Messi License to Centric, which paid the Company $2,000,000 in cash and assumed the obligation to pay the minimum guaranteed amount due to LMM in 2024. Effective as of that date, the Company discontinued operations on The Messi Store.

On February 12, 2024, the SEC deemed the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 effective. This registration statement contained two prospectuses: 1) a base prospectus that covers the potential offering, issuance, and sale from time to time of our common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities and units in one or more offerings with a total value of up to $100,000,000; and 2) a sales agreement prospectus (“ATM”) covering the potential offering, issuance, and sale from time to time of shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $1,650,000 pursuant to an equity distribution agreement with Maxim Group LLC. On June 7, 2024, MGO entered into an Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment”) to the equity distribution agreement for the ATM whereby the offering size was amended to reflect an increase in the aggregate gross sales price from $1,650,000 to $3,389,384. As of August 19, 2024, the Company had received gross proceeds of $2,2,788,588 from sales of shares of our common stock pursuant to the ATM.

If the Company is unable to generate significant sales growth in the near term and raise additional capital, there is a risk that the Company could default on additional obligations; and could be required to discontinue or significantly reduce the scope of its operations if no other means of financing operations are available. Moreover, any additional equity financing that we obtain may dilute the ownership held by our existing shareholders. The economic dilution to our shareholders will be significant if our stock price does not materially increase, or if the effective price of any sale is below the price paid by a particular shareholder. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities or any other adjustment that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As such, the aforementioned factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period.

Critical Accounting Policies, Significant Judgments, and Use of Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our most critical estimates include those related to revenue recognition, inventories and reserves for excess and obsolescence, accounting for stock-based awards, and income taxes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no significant changes to our existing critical accounting policies which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2024, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. Since our inception, except for standard operating leases, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Inflation

Over the past 18 months, inflation has adversely affected our business, financial condition, and results of operations by increasing our overall cost structure, and such affects will be further exacerbated if we are unable to achieve commensurate increases in the prices, we charge our customers. The existence of inflation in the economy has resulted in, and may continue to result in, higher interest rates and capital costs, shipping costs, supply shortages, increased costs of labor, weakening exchange rates, and other similar effects. As a result of inflation, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, cost increases. In addition, poor economic and market conditions, including a potential recession, may negatively impact market sentiment, decreasing the demand for sportswear and outerwear, which would adversely affect our operating income and results of operations. If we are unable to take effective measures in a timely manner to mitigate the impact of inflation, as well as a potential recession, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Climate Change

Our opinion is that neither climate change, nor governmental regulations related to climate change, have had, or are expected to have, any material effect on our operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

There were certain updates recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
