NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Business Operations

 

CURE Pharmaceutical Holding Corp. (“CURE”) is a broad platform technology company focusing on the development of nutraceutical formulation and delivery technologies in novel dosage forms to improve efficacy and enhance wellness. Our mission is to improve lives by redefining how active ingredients are delivered and experienced. Our primary business model is to develop health, wellness and beauty products using our proprietary formulations and technology as well as incubate new technologies for commercial exploitation through product development of new products to be sold under existing or new proprietary brands and the licensing and/or sale of the rights to such technologies to third parties for their use.  Development may include conduction clinical trial for substantiation of efficacy of our products.

 

Our wholly-owned subsidiary The Sera Labs, Inc. (“Sera Labs”) is engaged in the development, production and sale of the Company’s products and is a trusted leader in the health, wellness, and beauty sectors with innovative products containing cutting edge technology and superior ingredients. Sera Labs creates high quality products that use science-backed, proprietary oral and topical formulations. We focus on evidence-based wellness products that are differentiated by using proprietary and/or proven active ingredients that we formulate for greater stability, overall quality and increased bioavailability. Wellness and beauty products can be cosmetics, over-the-counter or dietary supplements which do not require approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) but do require following all good manufacturing practices (GMPs). Thus, they are less costly and faster to launch in the marketplace than pharmaceutical products. More than 25 products are sold under the brand names Seratopical™, Seratopical Revolution™ SeraLabs™, and Nutri-Strips™ at affordable prices, making them easily accessible on a global scale. Strategically positioned in the growth categories of beauty, health & wellness, and pet care, Sera Labs products are sold in major national drug, mass retailers, grocery chains and convenience stores. The Company also sells products under private label to major retailers and multi-level marketers, as well as direct-to-consumer (DTC), via online website orders, including opt-in subscriptions.

 

Recent Developments

 

On July 22, 2022, CURE completed the sale of certain assets comprising the pharmaceutical segment of the Company pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) with TF Tech Ventures, Inc. (the “Buyer”), under which the Buyer purchased certain assets (the “Asset Sale”), including certain pharmaceutical patents, trademarks and related machinery and equipment. The Company retained 15 other patents not included in the Asset Sale, which the Company expects to monetize through product development, licensing arrangements and/or the sale of such patents.
