NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND GENERAL

A. Manuka, Inc., formerly Artemis Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, on April 22, 1997. Based on the lack of business activities since January 10, 2019, the Company was classified as a “shell” company as defined by the ~~Securities and Exchange Commission (the “~~SEC”).

Following the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement (as defined and detailed below), the Company is no longer classified as a “shell” Company.

On March 6, 2022, the Company signed a Share Exchange Agreement, as amended (the “Share Exchange Agreement”), with Manuka Ltd., a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Manuka”), pursuant to which Manuka became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary.

On May 18, 2023, the Company (formerly known as Artemis Therapeutics, Inc.), filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, with the State of Delaware Division of Corporations to change its corporate name to Manuka, Inc.

Since its inception, Manuka’s business activities primarily consisted of developing and distributing supplements aimed at the beauty and skincare markets, and, developing and manufacturing skincare products based on New Zealand’s Manuka honey and bee venom, among other natural ingredients. All of Manuka’s products are marketed and sold solely on its website. Manuka’s skincare products are manufactured in Israel.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the term Company refers to Manuka, Inc., as adjusted, to reflect the financial statements of Manuka Ltd.

The number of shares included within these financial statements have been retroactively adjusted based on the equivalent number of shares received by the accounting acquirer in the reverse recapitalization transaction.

The Company’s common stock is not listed on any national stock exchange but is quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “MNKA.”

B. The Company is in its early stages and has incurred substantial operating losses. There is uncertainty regarding the future of its operations. Moreover, the Company is thinly capitalized and has not yet generated cash from operations. Management expects the Company to continue to generate substantial operating losses and to continue to fund its operations primarily through additional raises of capital and through its credit line. Such conditions raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan includes raising funds from existing and potential investors. However, there is no assurance such funding will be available to the Company or that it will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or will provide the Company with sufficient funds to meet its objectives. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets, carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. Accounting principles:

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of the SEC regulations. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as otherwise discussed).

These financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the 2022 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included.

B. Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and accompanying notes and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

C. Impact of recently issued and adopted accounting standards:

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.

NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTY BALANCES AND TRANSACTIONS

During 2020, ~~and~~ 2021 and 2022, and the ~~six~~nine months ended on ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the founder of Manuka Ltd., Mr. Shimon Citron, a director, Chief ~~Executive~~ Executive Officer and a major stockholder, provided the Company with several loans at an aggregate amount of $~~273~~318 thousand as of ~~June~~ September 30, 2023. The loans bear no interest and are linked to the Israeli Consumer ~~Price~~Prices Index. The repayment date has not been determined.

The Company considered whether the loans it received from its major stockholder are beneficial and hence such benefit should be recorded in capital reserve from the transaction with a related party.

The Company estimated the value of the benefit as the difference between the interest rate stipulated in the contract and the interest rate commensurate with such loans expected in an arms-length transaction (inclusive adjustment to the size of the loan and the fact that it is unsecured, which the Company’s management considers being the best estimate of the Company’s interest rate close to the date of receiving loans from a stockholders). Accordingly, as a result of the fact that the stockholder’s loan bears no interest and with no maturity date, the benefit is determined each year at the beginning of the year, as the discount of the loans at the effective interest rate (determined above) determined to be approximately 8.85%. The benefit for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022 ~~were~~ were $1323 and $1016 in thousand, respectively.

The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, related notes and other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the risk factors included in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.

OVERVIEW

Until January 10, 2019, we were engaged in the development of agents for the prevention and treatment of severe and potentially life-threatening infectious diseases. On January 10, 2019, we received a notice regarding the immediate termination of a certain license agreement, dated May 31, 2016 (the “License Agreement”), executed by and between the Company, Hadasit Medical Research Services and Development Ltd. and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology R and D Corporation Limited. We relied primarily on the License Agreement with respect to the development of Artemisone, one of our former lead product candidate. Upon the termination of the License Agreement, the Company ceased having an operating business.

From January 10, 2019 through June 30, 2022, we had no business operations and were classified as a “shell” company, as such term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

On March 6, 2022, we signed a ~~Share Exchange Agreement, as amended (~~the “Share Exchange Agreement~~”),~~ with Manuka, pursuant to which Manuka became our wholly owned subsidiary. Since its inception, Manuka’s business activities primarily consisted of developing and distributing supplements aimed at the beauty and skincare markets, and developing and manufacturing skincare products based on New Zealand’s Manuka honey and bee venom, among other natural ingredients. All of Manuka’s products are marketed and sold solely on its website. Manuka’s skincare ~~products~~ products are manufactured in Israel. The transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement closed on June 30, 2022 (the “Closing”) and following the Closing, we adopted the business of Manuka.

Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Manuka (the “Manuka Shares”) from Manuka’s shareholders in exchange for an aggregate amount of 33,791,641 shares of common stock (including 2,242,509 shares issued to a service provider) and 110,000 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock (convertible into 66,000,000 shares of our common stock) (collectively, the “Consideration Shares”), such that Manuka’s shareholders held, immediately following the ~~closing~~Closing, eighty-nine percent (89%) of our issued and outstanding share capital (including and assuming the full conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock).

In addition, on June 30, 2022, we entered into various debt forgiveness agreements with various existing stockholders, including Tonak Ltd., for the forgiveness of an aggregate of $306,117 in outstanding debt in exchange for the issuance of 3,031,567 shares of our common stock. On June 30, 2022, we entered into various warrant exchange agreements for the exchange of certain warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, originally issued in October 2017, in exchange for an aggregate of 2,342,802 shares of our common stock. Finally, on June 30, 2022, we entered into a debt forgiveness agreement and warrant exchange agreement with Cutter Mill Capital, pursuant to which we agreed to issue 894,169 shares of our common stock.

14We are a beauty company that develops and distributes premium-quality skincare products that are based on Manuka honey and bee venom. Since our inception, Manuka’s business activities primarily consisted of developing and manufacturing skincare products based on Manuka honey and bee venom from New Zealand, among other natural ingredients, marketed and sold solely on our website in Israel, www.bmanuka.co.il, and to be marketed and sold globally at www.bmanuka.com.
