NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by Know Labs, Inc, (“the Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the fiscal periods presented have been included.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 21, 2021. The results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year, or for any other fiscal period.

1. ORGANIZATION

Know Labs, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in 1998. The Company currently has authorized 205,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 200,000,000 are shares of voting common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 5,000,000 are shares preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. At the annual shareholder meeting held on October 15, 2021, our authorized shares of common stock was increased to 200,000,000 shares of voting common stock, par value $0.001 per share.

Know Labs is focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary biosensor technologies which, when paired with our artificial intelligence, or AI, deep learning platform, are capable of uniquely identifying and measuring almost any material or analyte using electromagnetic energy to detect, record, identify and measure the unique “signature” of said materials or analytes. The Company call these our “Bio-RFID™” technology platform when pertaining to radio and microwave spectroscopy; and “ChromaID” technology platform when pertaining to optical spectroscopy. The data obtained with our biosensor technology is analyzed with our trade secret algorithms which are driven by our AI deep learning platform. There are a significant number of analytes in the human body that relate to health and wellness. The Company’s focus is upon those analytes relating to human health, the identification of which provide diagnostic information and require, by their nature, clearance by the United States Food and Drug Administration.

On April 30, 2020, the Company approved and ratified the incorporation of Particle, Inc. Particle is focused on the development and commercialization of our extensive intellectual property relating to electromagnetic energy outside of the medical diagnostic arena which remains the parent company’s singular focus. Since incorporation, Particle has engaged in research and development activities on threaded light bulbs that have a warm white light and can inactivate germs, including bacteria and viruses. It is now looking for partners to take the product to market.

On September 17, 2021, the Company incorporated AI Mind, Inc. AI Mind is focused on monetizing the AI Deep Learning Platform. Since incorporation it initially focused on creating graphical images which were sold as Non Fungible Tokens (“NFTs”). During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s artificial intelligence (AI) Deep Learning Platform began generating revenue from digital asset sales of NFT’s and had sales of $4,360,087.

2. LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

The Company has cash and cash equivalents of $8,351,945 and net working capital of $6,042,208 (exclusive of convertible notes payable) as of June 30, 2022. The Company anticipates that it will record losses from operations for the foreseeable future. The Company believes that it has enough available cash to operate until June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s accumulated deficit was $95,827,137. The Company has had limited capital resources and intends to seek additional cash via equity and debt offerings.

On July 29, 2022, the Company filed a Form S-1 registration statement for a proposed new offering of 3 million shares of its common stock with an anticipated offering price of $2.00 per share. Concurrent with, and as a condition to, the offering, Know Labs will apply to uplist its shares to the NYSE American Exchange. The closing of this offering is contingent upon the successful listing of our common stock on NYSE American.

The proceeds of warrants currently outstanding, which could be exercised on a cash basis, may generate potential proceeds of up to $16,383,908.

If the new offering referenced above is not successful or the warrants are not exercised, the cash conditions may raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The audit report prepared by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2021 did not include an explanatory paragraph expressing the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: ADOPTION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Principles of Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, Particle, Inc. and AI Mind, Inc. Inter-Company items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company classifies highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit.

Equipment – Equipment consists of machinery, leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures and software, which are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease period of the relevant asset, generally 2-5 years, except for leasehold improvements which are depreciated over 5 years.

Long-Lived Assets – The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment annually or when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.

Intangible Assets – Intangible assets are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life, if the life is determinable. If the life is not determinable, amortization is not recorded. We regularly perform reviews to determine if facts and circumstances exist which indicate that the useful lives of our intangible assets are shorter than originally estimated or the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. When an indication exists that the carrying amount of intangible assets may not be recoverable, we assess the recoverability of our assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Such impairment test is based on the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the estimated fair value of those assets.

Revenue Recognition - The Company determines revenue recognition from contracts with customers through the following steps:

	·	identification of the contract, or contracts, with the customer;

	·	identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

	·	determination of the transaction price;

	·	allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

	·	recognition of the revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s artificial intelligence (AI) Deep Learning Platform began generating revenue from digital asset sales of NFT’s. The Company engineering team, using its research date, AI and proprietary algorithms, produced NFT’s in the form of digital art. The NFT’s produced had no recorded cost basis.

Digital Asset Sales - Revenue includes sale of NFT’s in the form of digital art generated from the Company’s artificial intelligence Deep Learning Platform. The Company uses the NFT exchange, OpenSea, to facilitate the transaction with the customer. The Company, through OpenSea, has custody and control of the NFT prior to the delivery to the customer and records revenue at the point in time when the NFT is delivered to the customer and the customer pays. The Company has no obligations for returns, refunds or warranty after the NFT sale. The customer pays in the form of transferring the crypto currency digital asset, Ethereum. The value of the sale is determined based on the value of the Ethereum crypto currency received as consideration. Payment is required before the NFT is delivered. Each NFT that is generated produces a unique identifying code. The Company also earns a royalty of up to 10%, when an NFT is resold by its owner in a secondary market transaction. The Company recognizes this royalty as revenue when the transaction is consummated, and they receive compensation.

After the sale of the NFT, the Ethereum is converted to US dollars as soon as practically possible. The Company records the total value of the gross NFT sale in revenue. Costs incurred in connection with the NFT transaction are recorded in the statement of operations as Selling and Transactional Cost of Digital Assets and include costs to outside consultants, estimated employee and CEO special bonus compensation, digital asset conversion losses and estimated sales and use tax. The amount totaled $164,093 and $3,436,955 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Research and Development Expenses – Research and development expenses consist of the cost of employees, consultants and contractors who design, engineer and develop new products and processes as well as materials, supplies and facilities used in producing prototypes.

The Company’s current research and development efforts are primarily focused on improving our Bio-RFID technology, extending its capacity and developing new and unique applications for this technology. As part of this effort, the Company conducts on-going laboratory testing to ensure that application methods are compatible with the end-user and regulatory requirements, and that they can be implemented in a cost-effective manner. The Company also is actively involved in identifying new applications. The Company’s current internal team along with outside consultants has considerable experience working with the application of the Company’s technologies and their applications. The Company engages third party experts as required to supplement our internal team. The Company believes that continued development of new and enhanced technologies is essential to our future success. The Company incurred expenses of $3,406,996, $3,969,972 and $2,033,726 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, on development activities.

Advertising – Advertising costs are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses as incurred. Advertising and marketing costs for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $514,401 and $240,000, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments – ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, defines 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 on the measurement date. This topic also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires classification based on observable and unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and.

Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The recorded value of other financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 are based upon the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities.

The Company has a money market account which is considered a level 1 asset. The balance as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 was $6,041,016 and $12,217,714, respectively.

Derivative Financial Instruments –Pursuant to ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”, the Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. The Company then determines if embedded derivative must be bifurcated and separately accounted for. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

The Company determined that the conversion features for purposes of bifurcation within convertible notes payable were immaterial and there was no derivative liability to be recorded as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021.

Stock Based Compensation - The Company has share-based compensation plans under which employees, consultants, suppliers and directors may be granted restricted stock, as well as options and warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock at the fair market value at the time of grant. Stock-based compensation cost to employees is measured by the Company at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period under ASC 718. For options issued to employees, the Company recognizes stock compensation costs utilizing the fair value methodology over the related period of benefit.

Convertible Securities – Based upon ASC 815-15, the Company has adopted a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to convertible securities. The Company will evaluate our contracts based upon the earliest issuance date. In the event partial reclassification of contracts subject to ASC 815-40-25 is necessary, due to the Company’s inability to demonstrate we have sufficient shares authorized and unissued, shares will be allocated on the basis of issuance date, with the earliest issuance date receiving first allocation of shares. If a reclassification of an instrument were required, it would result in the instrument issued latest being reclassified first.

Net Loss per Share – Under the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had 43,802,147 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. As of June 30, 2022, there were options outstanding for the purchase of 20,927,370 common shares (including unearned stock option grants totaling 11,550,745 shares related to performance targets), warrants for the purchase of 21,651,513 common shares, and 8,108,356 shares of our common stock issuable upon the conversion of Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. In addition, the Company currently has 9,020,264 common shares at the current price of $0.25 per share reserved and are issuable upon conversion of convertible debentures of $2,255,066. All of which could potentially dilute future earnings per share but are excluded from the June 30, 2022, calculation of net loss per share because their impact is antidilutive.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had 33,719,669 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. As of June 30, 2021, there were options outstanding for the purchase of 14,650,120 common shares (including unearned stock option grants totaling 11,775,745 shares related to performance targets), warrants for the purchase of 23,169,587 common shares, and 8,108,356 shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon the conversion of Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. In addition, the Company currently has 16,124,764 common shares (9,020,264 common shares at the current price of $0.25 per share and 7,104,500 common shares at the current price of $2.00 per share) reserved and are issuable upon conversion of convertible debentures of $16,464,066. All of which could potentially dilute future earnings per share but are excluded from the June 30, 2021 calculation of net loss per share because their impact is antidilutive.

Comprehensive loss – Comprehensive loss is defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from non-owner sources. There were no differences between net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and comprehensive loss for those periods.

Dividend Policy – The Company has never paid any cash dividends and intends, for the foreseeable future, to retain any future earnings for the development of our business. Our future dividend policy will be determined by the board of directors on the basis of various factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and investment opportunities.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt -- debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging --Contracts in Entity’ Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’ Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The new standard is effective for the Company on October 1, 2021. Adoption of the ASU did not have an impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cashflows.

Based on the Company’s review of accounting standard updates issued since the filing of the June 30, 2022 Form 10-Q, there have been no other newly issued or newly applicable accounting pronouncements that have had, or are expected to have, a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

4. Artificial Intelligence (AI) Deep Learning Platform

AI Revenue

During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s artificial intelligence (AI) Deep Learning Platform began generating revenue from digital asset sales of NFT’s and had sales of $4,360,087. The Company’s sales of NFT’s are generated using the NFT digital exchange, OpenSea. Customers purchasing the NFT’s must make payments in the crypto currency, Ethereum. The Ethereum is received into a digital wallet and then moved to an account at Coinbase where the Ethereum is converted to U.S. dollars. During the three months ended December 31, 2021, the Company was not able to establish a digital wallet and corporate account at Coinbase in order to receive the Ethereum. The Company used the digital wallet and Coinbase account of the Company’s CEO. The Company and the CEO executed an assignment of his account to the Company while the Company establishes its own Coinbase account. All proceeds received from the sale of NFT were deposited in the CEO’s personal digital accounts. As of December 31, 2021 the Company had recorded an accounts receivable-related party of $3,124,581 for the cash it expected to receive from the CEO’s personal digital account.

BUSINESS

Overview

We are focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary biosensor technologies which, when paired with our AI deep learning platform, are capable of uniquely identifying and measuring almost any material or analyte using electromagnetic energy to detect, record, identify and measure the unique “signature” of said materials or analytes. We call this our “Bio-RFID™” technology platform, when pertaining to radio and microwave spectroscopy, and our “ChromaID” technology platform, when pertaining to optical spectroscopy. The data obtained with our biosensor technology is analyzed with our trade secret algorithms which are driven by our AI deep learning platform.

ChromaID is the first technology developed and patented by our company. For the past several years, we have focused on extensions and new patentable inventions that are derived from and extend beyond our ChromaID technology and intellectual property. We call this technology platform Bio-RFID. The rapid advances made with our Bio-RFID technology in our laboratory have caused us to move quickly into the commercialization phase of our Company as we work to create revenue generating products for the marketplace. Today, the primary focus of our company is on our Bio-RFID technology and our commercialization and development of related patent assets. Through our wholly owned subsidiaries, our company works to exploit additional opportunities and markets that our broad intellectual property and trade secret portfolio addresses.

Corporate History and Structure

Know Labs, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in 1998. Since 2007, our Company has been focused primarily on research and development of proprietary spectroscopic technologies spanning the electromagnetic spectrum.

On April 30, 2020, we incorporated Particle, Inc., or Particle, as a wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Nevada. Particle is focused on the development and commercialization of our extensive intellectual property relating to electromagnetic energy outside of the medical diagnostic arena which remains the parent company’s singular focus.

On September 17, 2021, we incorporated of AI Mind, Inc., or AI Mind, as a wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Nevada. AI Mind is focused on monetizing the AI deep learning platform.

The Know Labs Technology

We have internally and under contract with third parties developed proprietary platform technologies to uniquely identify and measure almost any organic and inorganic material or analyte. Our patented technology utilizes electromagnetic energy along a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum from visible light and infrared to radio and microwave wavelengths to perform analytics which allow the user to accurately identify and measure materials and analytes depending upon the specified targets or endpoints and field of use. Our company’s proprietary platform technologies are called Bio-RFID and ChromaID.

Our most recent technology platform is called Bio-RFID, which utilizes spectroscopy at higher wavelengths than ChromaID’s optical range, to span radio wave and microwave segments of the electromagnetic spectrum. Working in our lab over the last three years, we have developed extensions and new inventions derived in part from our ChromaID technology which we refer to as Bio-RFID. We believe an important competitive differentiator for Bio-RFID to be its ability to not only identify a wide range of organic and inorganic materials and analytes, but to do so concurrently, and in real time, which potentially enables new multivariate models of clinical diagnostics, and health and wellness monitoring. We are rapidly advancing the development of this technology by increasing its accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. We have announced detailed results confirming that we have successfully been able to non-invasively measure blood glucose levels in humans.

The ability of our company to obtain exacting results from the data obtained from our Bio-RFID sensor technology, also referred to as Radio Frequency Spectroscopy or RF Spectroscopy is a consequence of the application of our company’s trade secret algorithms. Our company has worked for the last several years on the AI and machine learning, or ML, that drives the accurate pattern recognition of our algorithms. This work has led to the development of a robust AI deep learning platform. This AI deep learning platform drives the data pattern recognition for Bio-RFID’s exacting determination of blood glucose levels. It can also provide the data recognition for blood alcohol and blood oxygen levels which our company has also identified in preliminary tests. It will provide the analytics for the long list of other analytes in the human body that our company will pursue non-invasive detection of, many of which are set forth in our company’s issued patent USPTO 11,033,208 B1. Our company’s AI deep learning platform will be monetized through our subsidiary AI Mind.

We continue to build the internal and external development team necessary to commercialize this newly discovered technology as well as make additional patent filings covering the intellectual property created with these new inventions. The first applications of our Bio-RFID technology will be in a product marketed as a glucose monitor. It will provide the user with real time information on their blood glucose levels. This product will require US Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, clearance prior to its introduction to the market, which we plan to pursue. We have previously announced two versions of our non-invasive glucose monitoring device. We have identified these as the KnowU™ and the UBand™. The KnowU is a desk top version with a portable monitoring device for periodic glucose monitoring and the UBand is a wearable for continuous glucose monitoring.

We have also announced the results of laboratory-based comparison testing between our Bio-RFID technology and the leading continuous glucose monitors from Abbott Labs (Freestyle Libre®) and DexCom (G6®). These results provide evidence of a high degree of correlation between our Bio-RFID technology and the current industry leaders and their continuous glucose monitors. Our patented technology is fundamentally differentiated from these industry leaders as our technology completely non-invasively monitors blood glucose levels.

In addition to internal testing, our company engaged a world-renowned research institution to perform third party validation testing of the Bio-RFID technology. The purpose of the independent pre-clinical research was to confirm that Know Labs’ Bio-RFID technology is able to precisely and non-invasively measure and identify a variety of analytes in vitro by detecting their unique radio frequency spectral responses. The results of this testing were reported in a June 8, 2021 press release and Form 8-K filing. Unfortunately, the research institution would not allow its name to be used in the press release absent the publication of the report in a peer reviewed journal, which can take considerable time.

We have begun the internal process to pursue FDA clearance of our non-invasive blood glucose monitoring device as soon as possible. To guide us in that undertaking we previously announced the hiring of a Chief Medical Officer and formed a medical and regulatory advisory board to guide us through the FDA process. Additionally, we have retained third party quality assurance and documentation consultants to ensure that the rigorous requirements of the FDA are met. We are unable, however, to estimate the time necessary for FDA clearance or the likelihood of success in that endeavor.

While the first focus of our Bio-RFID platform is non-invasive glucose monitoring, it is important to note that our KnowU and UBand devices have the capacity to monitor and identify other analytes in the human body with a relatively simple software modification. Each additional analyte the Company identifies over time will require its own subsequent FDA clearance, the success of which we are unable to estimate at this time.

Our ChromaID patented technology utilizes light at the photon (elementary particle of light) level through a series of emitters and detectors to generate a unique signature or “fingerprint” from a scan of almost any solid, liquid or gaseous material. This signature of reflected or transmitted light is digitized, creating a unique ChromaID signature. Each ChromaID signature is comprised of from hundreds to thousands of specific data points.

The ChromaID technology looks beyond visible light frequencies to areas of near infra-red and ultraviolet light and beyond that are outside the humanly visible light spectrum. The data obtained allows us to create a very specific and unique ChromaID signature of the substance for a myriad of authentication, verification, and identification applications.

Bio-RFID, ChromaID and AI Deep Learning: Foundational Platform Technologies

Our technologies provide a unique platform upon which a myriad of applications can be developed. As platform technologies, they are analogous to a smartphone, upon which an enormous number of previously unforeseen applications have been developed. Bio-RFID and ChromaID technologies are “enabling” technologies that bring the science of electromagnetic energy to low-cost, real-world commercialization opportunities across multiple industries. The technologies are foundational and, as such, the basis upon which our company believes significant businesses can be built. While our company is pursuing our core focus on commercializing our glucose monitor, we believe non-core clinical and non-clinical applications represent a multitude of opportunities for strategic collaboration and joint development agreements with leading companies in their respective industries.

As with other foundational technologies, a single application may reach across multiple industries. The Bio-RFID technology can non-invasively identify the presence and quantity of blood glucose in the human body. By extension, there may be other analytes or molecular structures this same technology can identify in the human body which, over time, we intend to focus on. They may include the monitoring of drug usage or the presence of illicit drugs. They may also involve identifying hormones and various biomarkers of disease or pre-conditions of disease.

Similarly, the ChromaID technology can, for example, effectively differentiate and identify different brands of clear vodkas that appear identical to the human eye. By extension, this same technology could identify pure water from water with contaminants present. It could provide real time detection of liquid medicines such as morphine that have been adulterated or compromised. It could detect if jet fuel has water contamination present. It could determine when it is time to change oil in a deep fat fryer. These are but a few of the potential applications of the ChromaID technology based upon extensions of its ability to identify different liquids.

The AI deep learning platform is an enabling technology which can identify patterns from data gathered from both the Bio-RFID and ChromaID platform technologies. The AI deep learning platform is critical to our company’s ability to identify accurately blood glucose levels and other analytes in the human body. Over time, utilizing our AI deep learning platform we plan to develop analytics which, when using data collected from our sensors, will provide useful information on health and wellness to end users, and potentially lead to what our company calls “Predictive Health.” In addition to identifying patterns, the inverse is also possible as our company’s AI deep learning platform can also create patterns in the form of 3D graphical images. That activity has found its first form in the work of our company’s subsidiary, AI Mind, to generate beautiful 3D graphical images which were sold as NFTs providing revenue in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022. Our company believes there will be future revenue generation from the sale of NFTs and from other applications of our AI deep learning platform.

The cornerstone of our foundational platform technology is our intellectual property portfolio. We have pursued an active intellectual property strategy which includes focus on patents where appropriate and a diligent protection of trade secrets. Our company has been granted 27 patents and 13 design patents. We currently have a number of patents pending and continue, on a regular basis, the filing of new patents. We possess all right, title and interest to the issued patents.

Product Strategy

We are currently undertaking internal development work on potential products for the commercial marketplace. We have announced the development of our non-invasive glucose monitor and our desire to obtain FDA clearance for the marketing of this product. We have also announced the engagement of a manufacturing partner we will work with to bring this product to market. We will make further announcements regarding this product as development, testing, manufacturing, and regulatory approval work progresses.

Currently we are focusing our efforts on productizing our Bio-RFID technology as we move it out of our research laboratory, through appropriate and required clinical trials and into the marketplace.

Our subsidiary corporation, Particle, Inc. is seeking a strategic distribution partner or partners to move its virus deactivating light bulb into the global marketplace. Our AI Mind subsidiary is looking at additional ways to monetize our AI deep learning platform beyond the NFT market for its graphical images and expects to test several product ideas over the next fiscal year.

Sales and Marketing

While we continue with our internal development efforts and the move toward FDA filing and expected (but not guaranteed) clearance of our first product, a non-invasive blood glucose monitoring device, we will explore the several potential avenues for moving our first product and potential follow on products into the marketplace. The avenues being explored include direct to consumer, initial launch partners, broad distribution partners, licensing partners and private label approaches to the market among others. We have begun to build our internal sales and marketing team in preparation for detailed strategic thinking about the optimal approach to the marketplace.

Competition

We group the competition into three large categories. Those are (i) large global technology companies who may enter the blood glucose monitoring and other diagnostic markets, (ii) legacy providers of blood glucose monitoring technology, and (iii) new entrants working to achieve a non-invasive solution or more acceptable blood glucose monitoring solution which may or may not be similar to our technology. With regard to companies in each category, we perform due diligence from all publicly available sources of information on their relevant technologies and their product plans. This information informs and refines our activities and underscores our sense of urgency as we work to bring our own technology to the marketplace. The addressable market is very large and there is room for a multitude of providers of blood glucose monitoring services. Of note, few, if any, of the competitors in the blood glucose monitoring space possess a platform technology competitive with our Bio-RFID technology and our ability to identify a multitude of analytes in the human body.

Our Competitive Advantage Bio-RFID’s ability to not only identify a wide range of organic and inorganic materials and analytes, but to do so concurrently, and in real time, which potentially enables new multivariate models of clinical diagnostics, and health and wellness monitoring.

	·	Non-Invasive: Our Bio-RFID technology is non-invasive, using radio waves to identify and measure what is going on inside the body.

	·	Form Factor Agnostic: Our Bio-RFID technology platform that can be integrated into a variety of wearable, mobile or bench-top form factors.

	·	Pain-free: No needles nor invasive transmitters in your body, making Bio-RFID sensors convenient and pain-free.

	·	No Consumables: Expensive supplies, such as test strips and lancets, are not required to operate Bio-RFID devices.

Our Growth Strategy

The key elements of our strategy to grow our business include:

	·	Initially, entering the diabetes continuous glucose monitoring, or CGM, market with our non-invasive CGM product.

	·	Following our entry into the CGM market, entering other clinical monitoring markets for continuous, non-invasive hormone, medication metabolite, endocrinology components and biomolecular monitoring.

	·	Applying our Bio-RFID platform technology to lifestyle analysis, clinical trials and chronic illnesses.

We believe that potential use cases include real time wearable medication monitoring and detection of, for example, ovulation and hormone deficiency.

Our company will continue to look for opportunities for new applications on our AI deep learning platform, to generate revenues to support the continued development of our non-invasive diagnostic technology.

Our Patents and Intellectual Property

We believe that our 27 patents and 13 design patents, patent applications, registered trademarks, and our trade secrets, copyrights and other intellectual property rights are important assets. Our issued patents will expire at various times between 2027 and 2041. Pending patents, if and when issued, may have expiration dates that extend further in time. The duration of our trademark registrations varies from country to country. However, trademarks are generally valid and may be renewed indefinitely as long as they are in use and/or their registrations are properly maintained.

The issued patents cover the fundamental aspects of the Know Labs ChromaID and Bio-RFID technology and a number of unique applications. We have filed patents on the fundamental aspects of our Bio-RFID technology and growing number of unique applications. We will continue to expand our company’s patent portfolio.

Additionally, significant aspects of our technology are maintained as trade secrets which may not be disclosed through the patent filing process. We are diligent in maintaining and securing our trade secrets.

Related Patent Assets

Inherent in a platform technology is the ability to develop or license technology in diverse fields of use apart from our company’s core focus. We focus on human health and wellness with a first focus on the non-invasive monitoring of blood glucose. We will pursue the identification of a multitude of analytes in the human body important to diagnostics over time. We will also identify, over time, opportunities for our intellectual property to be deployed in areas outside human health and wellness. Examples are Particle and AI Mind.

Our wholly owned subsidiary, Particle, for is engaged in research and development on non-core Company intellectual property. The first research activity, undertaken by Particle has been related to standard threaded light bulbs that emit a warm white light that can inactivate germs, including bacteria and viruses. On May 21, 2020, we entered into an intercompany patent license agreement with Particle pursuant to which Particle received an exclusive non-transferrable license to use certain of our patents and trademarks. In exchange for this license, we will receive: (i) a one-time fee of $250,000 upon a successful financing of Particle, and (ii) a quarterly royalty payment equal to the greater of 5% of the gross sales, net of returns, from Particle and $5,000. As of June 30, 2022, the operations of Particle have not generated any sales. The first product, the Particle bulb, can be used in households, businesses, and other facilities to inactivate bacteria and viruses. Through internal preliminary testing, Particle personnel have confirmed the Particle bulb’s efficacy in inactivating common germs such as E. coli and Staphylococcus. Final study results from Texas Biomedical Research Institute indicate that the Particle bulb has the ability to inactivate SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 and, most recently, the Alpha and Delta variants of the COVID-19 virus. The Particle team is working on certification, labeling, product manufacturing and related go-to-market requirements as well as business development activities related to interest from potential strategic and channel partners in both consumer and business applications in the global marketplace.

We expect although we cannot guarantee that we will create other such subsidiaries over time. Additionally, we may license our intellectual property to third parties so that they may pursue activities that are not a part of our company’s core focus.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We are focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary biosensor technologies which, when paired with our artificial intelligence, or AI, deep learning platform, are capable of uniquely identifying and measuring almost any material or analyte using electromagnetic energy to detect, record, identify and measure the unique “signature” of said materials or analytes. We call these our “Bio-RFID™” technology platform when pertaining to radio and microwave spectroscopy; and “ChromaID” technology platform when pertaining to optical spectroscopy. The data obtained with our biosensor technology is analyzed with our trade secret algorithms which are driven by our AI deep learning platform.

ChromaID is the first technology developed and patented by our company. For the past several years, we have focused on extensions and new patentable inventions that are derived from and extend beyond our ChromaID technology and intellectual property. We call this technology platform Bio-RFID. The rapid advances made with our Bio-RFID technology in our laboratory have caused us to move quickly into the commercialization phase of our company as we work to create revenue generating products for the marketplace. Today, the primary focus of our company is on our Bio-RFID technology, its commercialization and development of related patent assets. Through our wholly owned subsidiaries, our company works to exploit additional opportunities and markets that our broad intellectual property and trade secret portfolio addresses.

On April 30, 2020, we incorporated our wholly owned subsidiary, Particle, Inc. Particle is focused on the development and commercialization of our extensive intellectual property relating to electromagnetic energy outside of the medical diagnostic arena which remains our company’s singular focus. Since incorporation, Particle has engaged in research and development activities on threaded light bulbs that have a warm white light and can inactivate germs, including bacteria and viruses. Particle is now looking for partners to take this product to market.

On September 17, 2021 we incorporated our wholly owned subsidiary, AI Mind, Inc., for the purpose of identifying and capitalizing on market opportunities for our AI deep learning platform (discussed below). The first activity undertaken by AI Mind was the creation of graphical images expressed as non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, utilizing the AI deep learning platform. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, AI Mind, operating our AI deep learning platform, began generating revenue from digital asset sales of NFT’s and had sales of $4,360,000.

On May 24, 2022, we announced the appointment of the following new officers: Peter Conley, as Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President of Intellectual Property, Steven Kent, as Chief Product Officer, and Leonardo Troutwein, who joined our company in February 2021, as Chief Marketing Officer.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

Over the past two years the impact of COVID-19 has had adverse effects on our business by slowing down our ability to work with third parties outside of Seattle on testing and validation. We have witnessed supply chain related delays and increasing costs due to inflation. It is difficult to predict what other adverse effects, if any, COVID-19 and related matters can have on our business, or against the various aspects of same.

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency caused by a new strain of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and advised of the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The spread of COVID-19 coronavirus caused public health officials to recommend precautions to mitigate the spread of the virus, especially as to travel and congregating in large numbers. Over time, the incidence of COVID-19 and its variants has diminished although periodic spikes in incidence occur. Consequently, restrictions imposed by various governmental health organizations may change over time. Several states have lifted restrictions only to reimpose such restrictions as the number of cases rise and new variants arise.

It is difficult to isolate the impact of the pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial condition and our future strategic plans.

The Company may experience long-term disruptions to its operations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the pandemic and the presence of new variants of COVID-19; and closures of businesses or manufacturing facilities critical to its business or supply chains. The Company is actively monitoring, and will continue to actively monitor, the pandemic and the potential impact on its operations, financial condition, liquidity, suppliers, industry and workforce.

Principal Factors Affecting Our Financial Performance

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:

	·	The ability of our research and development team to produce an FDA clearance quality technology;

	·	Our ability to recruit and maintain quality personnel with the talent to bring our technology to the market;

	·	The production of market ready products which can sustain FDA clearance quality results;

	·	The clearance by the FDA after their rigorous clinical trial process of our products for the marketplace;

	·	The receptivity of the marketplace and the addressable diabetes community to our new non-invasive glucose monitoring technology’ and

	·	Access to sufficient capital to support the Company until its products achieve FDA clearance and are accepted in the marketplace.

Segment Reporting

Our management considers our business to currently consist of three operating segments (i) the development of the Bio-RFID™” and “ChromaID” technologies; (ii) Particle, Inc. technology; and (iii) AI sales of NFT products. Particle commenced operations in the three months ended June 30, 2020. AI commenced operations during the nine months ended June 30, 2022. For a reporting of the operating results for these three segments for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2022, see Note 12 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements of the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.

As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $8,352,000 and net working capital of approximately $6,042,000 (exclusive of convertible notes payable). We have experienced net losses since inception. As of June 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $95,827,000 and net losses in the amount of $14,501,000, $25,360,000, and $13,563,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We incurred non-cash expenses of $9,243,000, $17,701,000 and $9,366,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

On March 15, 2021, we closed private placement for gross proceeds of $14,209,000 in exchange for issuing subordinated convertible notes and warrants to purchase 3,552,250 shares of our common stock in a private placement to accredited investors. These convertible notes were automatically converted into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share starting on March 9, 2022. The convertible notes had an original principal amount of $14,209,000 with an annual interest of 8%. Both the principal amount and the interest were payable on a payment-in-kind basis in shares of our common stock.

We believe that our cash on hand will be sufficient to fund our operations through June 30, 2023.

We have financed our corporate operations and our technology development through the issuance of convertible debentures, the issuance of preferred stock, the sale of common stock and the exercise of warrants.

On July 29, 2022, we filed a Form S-1 registration statement for a proposed new offering of 3 million shares of our common stock with an anticipated offering price of $2.00 per share. Concurrent with, and as a condition to, the offering, Know Labs will apply to uplist its shares to the NYSE American Exchange. The closing of the offering is contingent upon the successful listing of our common stock on NYSE American.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

This item is not applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers concluded as of June 30, 2022 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting discussed immediately below.

Identified Material Weakness

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Management identified the following material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting:

Personnel: We did not employ a full time Chief Financial Officer until May, 24, 2022, when Peter Conley was appointed to the position. Previously, the Company’s founder and Chairman served as our Interim Chief Financial Officer and was assisted by a senior financial consultant with long term public company CFO experience.

With the recent hiring of a full time CFO, during the final quarter of fiscal year the Company will be doing a deep analysis of their internal controls over financial reporting.

(b) Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our CEO and CFO, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Our 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 disposition 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 GAAP and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorization 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 financial statements.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on its evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2022.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their cost.

c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during this fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to have a material effect on our internal control over financial reporting.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

The near-term effects of the recent COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic are known, as they adversely affected our business. Some longer term effects, such as supply chain issues and inflation, are becoming known and may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flow.

It is difficult to isolate the impact of the pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial condition and our future strategic plans.

General securities market uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Since the outset of the pandemic the United States and worldwide national securities markets have undergone unprecedented stress due to the uncertainties of the pandemic and the resulting reactions and outcomes of government, business and the general population. These uncertainties have resulted in declines in all market sectors, increases in volumes due to flight to safety and governmental actions to support the markets. As a result, until the pandemic has stabilized, the markets may not be available to the Company for purposes of raising required capital. Should we not be able to obtain financing when required, in the amounts necessary to execute on our plans in full, or on terms which are economically feasible we may be unable to sustain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic plan and may have to reduce the planned future growth and/or scope of our operations.

General securities market uncertainties resulting in geo-political considerations.

Since the outset of the military conflict in Ukraine, the United States and worldwide national securities markets have undergone unprecedented stress due to the uncertainties of that conflict and the resulting reactions and outcomes of governments, businesses, and the general population. These uncertainties have resulted in declines in all market sectors, increases in volumes due to flight to safety and governmental actions to support the markets. As a result, until the military conflict has stabilized, the markets may not be available to the Company for purposes of raising required capital. Should we not be able to obtain financing when required, in the amounts necessary to execute on our plans in full, or on terms which are economically feasible, we may be unable to sustain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic plan and may have to reduce the planned future growth and/or scope of our operations.

General securities market uncertainties resulting in economic considerations.

Recent unease regarding the aforementioned geo-political considerations and increasing inflation has caused the United States and worldwide national securities markets to have undergone unprecedented stress due to the uncertainties of regarding the economy and the resulting reactions and outcomes of governments, businesses, and the general population. These uncertainties have resulted in declines in all market sectors, increases in volumes due to flight to safety and governmental actions to support the markets. As a result, until economic outlook has stabilized, the markets may not be available to the Company for purposes of raising required capital. Should we not be able to obtain financing when required, in the amounts necessary to execute on our plans in full, or on terms which are economically feasible, we may be unable to sustain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic plan and may have to reduce the planned future growth and/or scope of our operations.

Table of Contents

We need additional financing to support our technology development and ongoing operations, pay our debts and maintain ownership of our intellectual properties.

We are currently operating at a loss and using substantial cash to fund our operation. We believe that our cash on hand will be sufficient to fund our operations through June 30, 2023. We may need additional financing to implement our business plan and to service our ongoing operations, pay our current debts (described below) and maintain ownership of our intellectual property. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure any needed funding, or that if such funding is available, the terms or conditions would be acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain additional financing when it is needed, we will need to restructure our operations and/or divest all or a portion of our business. We are each seeking additional capital through a combination of private and public equity offerings, debt financings and strategic collaborations. Debt financing, if obtained, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, and could increase our expenses and require that our assets secure such debt. Equity financing, if obtained, could result in dilution to our then-existing stockholders and/or require such stockholders to waive certain rights and preferences. If such financing is not available on satisfactory terms, or is not available at all, we may be required to delay, scale back, eliminate the development of business opportunities and our operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. There can be no assurance that we will be able to sell that number of shares, if any.

We need to continue as a going concern if our business is to succeed.

The Company has cash and cash equivalents of $8,351,945 and net working capital of $6,042,000 (exclusive of convertible notes payable) as of June 30, 2022. The Company anticipates that it will record losses from operations for the foreseeable future. The Company believes that it has enough available cash to operate until June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s accumulated deficit was $95,827,137. The Company has had limited capital resources and intends to seek additional cash via equity and debt offerings.

The proceeds of warrants currently outstanding, which could be exercised on a cash basis, may generate potential proceeds of up to $16,383,908. The Company cannot provide assurance that any of these warrants will be exercised.

If the new offering referenced above is not successful or the warrants are not exercised for cash, the cash conditions may raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The audit report prepared by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2021 did not include an explanatory paragraph expressing the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

If the new offering or warrant exercise were not successful, the cash conditions may raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The audit report prepared by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2021 did not include an explanatory paragraph expressing the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As of June 30, 2022, we owed approximately $2,529,706 and if we do not satisfy these obligations, the lenders may have the right to demand payment in full or exercise other remedies.

Mr. Erickson, our Chairman, and/or entities with which he is affiliated also have accounts payable and accrued liabilities $274,640 of as of June 30, 2022 related to accrued compensation, accrued interest and expenses.

We owe $2,255,066 under various convertible promissory notes as of June 30, 2022 including $1,184,066 owed to entities controlled by our Chairman.

We may need additional financing, to service and/or repay these debt obligations. If we raise additional capital through borrowing or other debt financing, we may incur substantial interest expense. If and when we raise more equity capital in the future, it will result in substantial dilution to our current stockholders.

We have a history of operating losses and there can be no assurance that we can achieve or maintain profitability.

We have experienced net losses since inception. As of June 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $95,827,137 and net losses in the amount of $25,360,213, and $13,562,641 for the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $14,500,643 and $17,763,812 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

There can be no assurance that we will achieve or maintain profitability. If we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Failure to become and remain profitable would impair our ability to sustain operations and adversely affect the price of our common stock and our ability to raise capital. Our operating expenses may increase as we spend resources on growing our business, and if our revenue does not correspondingly increase, our operating results and financial condition will suffer. Our Know Labs, Particle, and AI Mind businesses have produced minimal revenues and may not produce significant revenues in the near term, or at all, which would harm our ability to continue our operations or obtain additional financing and require us to reduce or discontinue our operations. You must consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we will encounter as business with an early-stage technology in a new and rapidly evolving industry. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and difficulties, which could significantly harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

If our company were to dissolve or wind-up operations, holders of our common stock would not receive a liquidation preference.

If we were to wind-up or dissolve our Company and liquidate and distribute our assets, our common stockholders would share in our assets only after we satisfy any amounts we owe to our creditors and preferred equity holders. If our liquidation or dissolution were attributable to our inability to profitably operate our business, then it is likely that we would have material liabilities at the time of liquidation or dissolution. Accordingly, it is very unlikely that sufficient assets will remain available after the payment of our creditors and preferred equity holders to enable common stockholders to receive any liquidation distribution with respect to any common stock.

We may not be able to generate sufficient revenue from the commercialization of our technology and related products to achieve or sustain profitability.

We are in the early stages of commercializing our technology. Failure to develop and sell products based upon our technology, grant additional licenses and obtain royalties or develop other revenue streams will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

To date, we have generated minimal revenue from sales of our products. We believe that our commercialization success is dependent upon our ability to significantly increase the number of customers that are using our products. In addition, demand for our products may not materialize, or increase as quickly as planned, and we may therefore be unable to increase our revenue levels as expected. We are currently not profitable. Even if we succeed in introducing our technology and related products to our target markets, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or sustain profitability.

We currently rely in part upon external resources for engineering and product development services. If we are unable to secure an engineering or product development partner or establish satisfactory engineering and product development capabilities, we may not be able to successfully commercialize our technology.

Our success depends upon our ability to develop products that are accurate and provide solutions for our customers. Achieving the desired results for our customers requires solving engineering issues in concert with them. Any failure of our technology or related products to meet customer expectations could result in customers choosing to retain their existing methods or to adopt systems other than ours.

We have not historically had sufficient internal resources which can work on engineering and product development matters. We have used third parties in the past and will continue to do so. These resources are not always readily available, and the absence of their availability could inhibit our research and development efforts and our responsiveness to our customers. Our inability to secure those resources could impact our ability to provide engineering and product development services and could have an impact on our customers’ willingness to use our technology.

We are in the early stages of commercialization and our technology and related products may never achieve significant commercial market acceptance.

Our success depends on our ability to develop and market products that are recognized as accurate and cost-effective. Many of our potential customers may be reluctant to use our new technology. Market acceptance will depend on many factors, including our ability to convince potential customers that our technology and related products are an attractive alternative to existing technologies. We will need to demonstrate that our products provide accurate and cost-effective alternatives to existing technologies. Compared to most competing technologies, our technology is relatively new, and most potential customers have limited knowledge of, or experience with, our products. Prior to implementing our technology and related products, some potential customers may be required to devote significant time and effort to testing and validating our products. In addition, during the implementation phase, some customers may be required to devote significant time and effort to training their personnel on appropriate practices to ensure accurate results from our technology and products. Any failure of our technology or related products to meet customer expectations could result in customers choosing to retain their existing testing methods or to adopt systems other than ours.

Many factors influence the perception of a system including its use by leaders in the industry. If we are unable to induce industry leaders in our target markets to implement and use our technology and related products, acceptance and adoption of our products could be slowed. In addition, if our products fail to gain significant acceptance in the marketplace and we are unable to expand our customer base, we may never generate sufficient revenue to achieve or sustain profitability.

Our management has had a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting and that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective.

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 a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. During the audit of our financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2021, management identified a material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting. Specifically, we did not employ a full time Chief Financial Officer. Peter Conley was appointed as Chief Financial Officer on May 24, 2022.

Our Particle, Inc. subsidiary was incorporated April 30, 2020, and has limited operating history.

Particle, Inc., or Particle, was incorporated April 30, 2020, and to date has engaged in activities consisting primarily of research and development on threaded light bulbs that have a warm white light that can inactivate germs, including bacteria and viruses. On June 1, 2020, we approved and ratified entry into an intercompany Patent License Agreement dated May 21, 2020, with Particle. Pursuant to the Agreement, Particle received an exclusive non-transferrable license to use certain patents and trademarks of our company, in exchange our company shall receive: (i) a one-time fee of $250,000 upon a successful financing of Particle, and (ii) a quarterly royalty payment equal to the greater of 5% of the Gross Sales, net of returns, from Particle or $5,000. As of June 30, 2022, the operations of Particle have generated no sales and operations are just commencing. The first product, the Particle bulb can be used in households, businesses and other facilities to inactivate bacteria and viruses. Through internal preliminary testing, Particle personnel has confirmed the bulb’s efficacy in inactivating common germs such as E. coli and Staphylococcus. A world renowned, CDC-regulated biosafety level-4 laboratory has tested the Particle bulb’s ability to inactivate SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The results of these tests were successful, confirming the bulb’s ability to deactivate Alpha and Delta variants of the virus.

To date, we have generated no revenue from Particle. We may not generate revenues in the near future while products are being developed. We believe that Particle’s commercialization success is dependent upon its ability to develop successful products to take to market. In addition, once developed, demand for its products may not materialize, or increase as quickly as planned, and we may therefore be unable to increase our revenue levels as expected. Even if we succeed in introducing our technology and related products to our target markets, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or sustain profitability of the Particle subsidiary. Our company is also exploring strategic partnerships and distribution agreements for Particle. These efforts may not be successful which would adversely impact the sustainability of Particle.

Our AI Mind, Inc. subsidiary was incorporated on September 17, 2021, and has limited operating history.

The subsidiary, which is wholly owned by Know Labs, Inc. commenced activity in the last calendar quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of our 2022 fiscal year. It has generated its first revenues during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 from its initial commercialization efforts related to the generation of NFT’s. There can be no assurance that it will continue to generate revenues nor be successful in continuing its marketing of parent company assets. These assets rely on fundamental trade secrets which at this time are proprietary yet not protected by any pending patents. It may not be possible to protect these trade secrets which would impact the ability of AI Mind to continue to generate revenues.

We are dependent on key personnel.

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of key management and other personnel, some of whom could be difficult to replace, including Ronald P. Erickson, our Chairman and Phil Bosua, our Chief Executive Officer. We maintain key person life insurance on our Chief Executive Officer, Phil Bosua. Our success will depend on the performance of our officers, our ability to retain and motivate our officers, our ability to integrate new officers into our operations, and the ability of all personnel to work together effectively as a team. Our failure to retain and recruit officers and other key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our success also depends on our continued ability to identify, attract, hire, train, retain and motivate highly skilled technical, managerial, manufacturing, administrative and sales and marketing personnel. Competition for these individuals is intense, and we may not be able to successfully recruit, assimilate or retain sufficiently qualified personnel. In particular, we may encounter difficulties in recruiting and retaining a sufficient number of qualified technical personnel, which could harm our ability to develop new products and adversely impact our relationships with existing and future customers. The inability to attract and retain necessary technical, managerial, manufacturing, administrative and sales and marketing personnel could harm our ability to obtain new customers and develop new products and could adversely affect our business and operating results.

We have limited insurance which may not cover claims by third parties against us or our officers and directors.

We have limited directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and commercial liability insurance policies. Claims by third parties against us may exceed policy amounts and we may not have amounts to cover these claims. Any significant claims would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our limited directors’ and officers’ liability insurance may affect our ability to attract and retain directors and officers.

Our inability to effectively protect our intellectual property would adversely affect our ability to compete effectively, our revenue, our financial condition and our results of operations.

We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual property rights. Obtaining and maintaining a strong patent position is important to our business. Patent law relating to the scope of claims in the technology fields in which we operate is complex and uncertain, so we cannot be assured that we will be able to obtain or maintain patent rights, or that the patent rights we may obtain will be valuable, provide an effective barrier to competitors or otherwise provide competitive advantages. Others have filed, and in the future are likely to file, patent applications that are similar or identical to ours or those of our licensors. To determine the priority of inventions or demonstrate that we did not derive our invention from another, we may have to participate in interference or derivation proceedings in the USPTO or in court that could result in substantial costs in legal fees and could substantially affect the scope of our patent protection. We cannot be assured our patent applications will prevail over those filed by others. Also, our intellectual property rights may be subject to other challenges by third parties. Patents we obtain could be challenged in litigation or in administrative proceedings such as ex parte reexam, inter parties review, or post grant review in the United States or opposition proceedings in Europe or other jurisdictions.

Table of Contents

There can be no assurance that:

	·	any of our existing patents will continue to be held valid, if challenged;

	·	patents will be issued for any of our pending applications;

	·	any claims allowed from existing or pending patents will have sufficient scope or strength to protect us;

	·	our patents will be issued in the primary countries where our products are sold in order to protect our rights and potential commercial advantage; or

	·	any of our products or technologies will not infringe on the patents of other companies.

If we are enjoined from selling our products, or if we are required to develop new technologies or pay significant monetary damages or are required to make substantial royalty payments, our business and results of operations would be harmed.

Obtaining and maintaining a patent portfolio entails significant expense and resources. Part of the expense includes periodic maintenance fees, renewal fees, annuity fees, various other governmental fees on patents and/or applications due in several stages over the lifetime of patents and/or applications, as well as the cost associated with complying with numerous procedural provisions during the patent application process. We may or may not choose to pursue or maintain protection for particular inventions. In addition, there are situations in which failure to make certain payments or noncompliance with certain requirements in the patent process can result in abandonment or lapse of a patent or patent application, resulting in partial or complete loss of patent rights in the relevant jurisdiction. If we choose to forgo patent protection or allow a patent application or patent to lapse purposefully or inadvertently, our competitive position could suffer.

Legal actions to enforce our patent rights can be expensive and may involve the diversion of significant management time. In addition, these legal actions could be unsuccessful and could also result in the invalidation of our patents or a finding that they are unenforceable. We may or may not choose to pursue litigation or interferences against those that have infringed on our patents, or used them without authorization, due to the associated expense and time commitment of monitoring these activities. If we fail to protect or to enforce our intellectual property rights successfully, our competitive position could suffer, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and business.

Claims by others that our products infringe their patents or other intellectual property rights could prevent us from manufacturing and selling some of our products or require us to pay royalties or incur substantial costs from litigation or development of non-infringing technology.

In recent years, there has been significant litigation in the United States involving patents and other intellectual property rights. We may receive notices that claim we have infringed upon the intellectual property of others. Even if these claims are not valid, they could subject us to significant costs. Any such claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming to defend, result in costly litigation, divert our attention and resources, cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. We have engaged in litigation and litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Litigation may also be necessary to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity by others. A successful claim of intellectual property infringement against us and our failure or inability to license the infringed technology or develop or license technology with comparable functionality could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

If we are unable to secure a sales and marketing partner or establish satisfactory sales and marketing capabilities at our company, we may not be able to successfully commercialize our technology.

If we are not successful entering into appropriate collaboration arrangements or recruiting sales and marketing personnel or in building a sales and marketing infrastructure, we will have difficulty successfully commercializing our technology, which would adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

We may not be able to enter into collaboration agreements on terms acceptable to us or at all. In addition, even if we enter into such relationships, we may have limited or no control over the sales, marketing and distribution activities of these third parties. Our future revenues may depend heavily on the success of the efforts of these third parties. If we elect to establish a sales and marketing infrastructure, we may not realize a positive return on this investment. In addition, we must compete with established and well-funded pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain sales and marketing personnel. Factors that may inhibit our efforts to commercialize technology without strategic partners or licensees include:

	·	our inability to recruit and retain adequate numbers of effective sales and marketing personnel;

	·	the lack of complementary products to be offered by sales personnel, which may put us at a competitive disadvantage relative to companies with more extensive product lines; and

	·	unforeseen costs and expenses associated with creating an independent sales and marketing organization.

Government regulatory approval may be necessary before some of our products can be sold and there is no assurance such approval will be granted.

Our technology may have a number of potential applications in fields of use which will require prior governmental regulatory approval before the technology can be introduced to the marketplace. For example, we are exploring the use of our technology for certain medical diagnostic applications, with an initial focus on the monitoring of blood glucose. There is no assurance that we will be successful in developing glucose monitoring medical applications for our technology. If we were to be successful in developing glucose monitoring medical applications of our technology, prior clearance by the FDA and other governmental regulatory bodies will be required before the technology could be introduced into the marketplace. There is no assurance that such regulatory approval would be obtained for a glucose monitoring medical diagnostic device or other applications requiring such approval. The FDA can refuse to grant, delay, and limit or deny approval of an application for clearance of marketing a glucose monitoring device for many reasons. We may not obtain the necessary regulatory approvals or clearances to market these glucose monitoring systems in the United States or outside of the United States. Any delay in, or failure to receive or maintain, approval or clearance for our products could prevent us from generating revenue from these products or achieving profitability.

Cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents could result in the compromise of confidential data or critical data systems and give rise to potential harm to customers, remediation and other expenses, expose us to liability under HIPAA, consumer protection laws, or other common law theories, subject us to litigation and federal and state governmental inquiries, damage our reputation, and otherwise be disruptive to our business and operations.

Cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. We collect and store on our networks sensitive information, including intellectual property, proprietary business information and personally identifiable information of our customers. The secure maintenance of this information and technology is critical to our business operations. We have implemented multiple layers of security measures to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of this data and the systems and devices that store and transmit such data. We utilize current security technologies, and our defenses are monitored and routinely tested internally and by external parties. Despite these efforts, threats from malicious persons and groups, new vulnerabilities and advanced new attacks against information systems create risk of cybersecurity incidents. These incidents can include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently and may not immediately produce signs of intrusion, we may be unable to anticipate these incidents or techniques, timely discover them, or implement adequate preventative measures.

These threats can come from a variety of sources, ranging in sophistication from an individual hacker to malfeasance by employees, consultants or other service providers to state-sponsored attacks. Cyber threats may be generic, or they may be custom crafted against our information systems. Over the past several years, cyber-attacks have become more prevalent and much harder to detect and defend against. Our network and storage applications may be vulnerable to cyber-attack, malicious intrusion, malfeasance, loss of data privacy or other significant disruption and may be subject to unauthorized access by hackers, employees, consultants or other service providers. In addition, hardware, software or applications we develop or procure from third parties may contain defects in design or manufacture or other problems that could unexpectedly compromise information security. Unauthorized parties may also attempt to gain access to our systems or facilities through fraud, trickery or other forms of deceiving our employees, contractors and temporary staff.

There can be no assurance that we will not be subject to cybersecurity incidents that bypass our security measures, impact the integrity, availability or privacy of personal health information or other data subject to privacy laws or disrupt our information systems, devices or business, including our ability to deliver services to our customers. As a result, cybersecurity, physical security and the continued development and enhancement of our controls, processes and practices designed to protect our enterprise, information systems and data from attack, damage or unauthorized access remain a priority for us. As cyber threats continue to evolve, we may be required to expend significant additional resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures or to investigate and remediate any cybersecurity vulnerabilities.

We may engage in acquisitions, mergers, strategic alliances, joint ventures and divestures that could result in final results that are different than expected.

In the normal course of business, we engage in discussions relating to possible acquisitions, equity investments, mergers, strategic alliances, joint ventures and divestitures. Such transactions are accompanied by a number of risks, including the use of significant amounts of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, incurrence of debt on potentially unfavorable terms as well as impairment expenses related to goodwill and amortization expenses related to other intangible assets, the possibility that we may pay too much cash or issue too many of our shares as the purchase price for an acquisition relative to the economic benefits that we ultimately derive from such acquisition, and various potential difficulties involved in integrating acquired businesses into our operations.

Table of Contents

From time to time, we have also engaged in discussions with candidates regarding the potential acquisitions of our product lines, technologies and businesses. If a divestiture such as this does occur, we cannot be certain that our business, operating results and financial condition will not be materially and adversely affected. A successful divestiture depends on various factors, including our ability to effectively transfer liabilities, contracts, facilities and employees to any purchaser; identify and separate the intellectual property to be divested from the intellectual property that we wish to retain; reduce fixed costs previously associated with the divested assets or business; and collect the proceeds from any divestitures.

If we do not realize the expected benefits of any acquisition or divestiture transaction, our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and stock price could be negatively impacted.

We have made strategic acquisitions in the past and may do so in the future, and if the acquired companies do not perform as expected, this could adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and existing business.

We may continue to expand our business through strategic acquisitions. The success of any acquisition will depend on, among other things:

	·	the availability of suitable candidates;

	·	higher than anticipated acquisition costs and expenses;

	·	competition from other companies for the purchase of available candidates;

	·	our ability to value those candidates accurately and negotiate favorable terms for those acquisitions;

	·	the availability of funds to finance acquisitions and obtaining any consents necessary under our credit facility;

	·	the ability to establish new informational, operational and financial systems to meet the needs of our business;

	·	the ability to achieve anticipated synergies, including with respect to complementary products or services; and

	·	the availability of management resources to oversee the integration and operation of the acquired businesses.

We may not be successful in effectively integrating acquired businesses and completing acquisitions in the future. We also may incur substantial expenses and devote significant management time and resources in seeking to complete acquisitions. Acquired businesses may fail to meet our performance expectations. If we do not achieve the anticipated benefits of an acquisition as rapidly as expected, or at all, investors or analysts may not perceive the same benefits of the acquisition as we do. If these risks materialize, our stock price could be materially adversely affected.

We are subject to corporate governance and internal control requirements, and our costs related to compliance with, or our failure to comply with existing and future requirements could adversely affect our business.

We must comply with corporate governance requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, as well as additional rules and regulations currently in place and that may be subsequently adopted by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. These laws, rules, and regulations continue to evolve and may become increasingly stringent in the future. The financial cost of compliance with these laws, rules, and regulations is expected to remain substantial.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to fully comply with these laws, rules, and regulations that address corporate governance, internal control reporting, and similar matters in the future. Failure to comply with these laws, rules and regulations could materially adversely affect our reputation, financial condition, and the value of our securities.

The exercise prices of certain warrants, and the conversion prices of our outstanding convertible notes payable and our Series C and D Preferred Shares may require further adjustment.

If in the future, if we sell our common stock at a price below $0.25 per share, the conversion price of 8,108,356 outstanding shares of Series C and D Preferred Stock would adjust below $0.25 per share pursuant to the documents governing such instruments. In addition, the conversion price of Convertible Notes Payable in the principal amount of $2,255,066, that convert into 9,020,264 shares of our common stock at $0.25 per share and the exercise price of certain outstanding warrants to purchase 10,284,381 shares of common stock would adjust below $0.25 per share pursuant to the documents governing such instruments. Warrants totaling 4,487,207 would adjust below $1.20 per share and warrants totaling 3,954,625 would adjust below $2.40 per share, in each case pursuant to the documents governing such instruments.

Table of Contents

We or our manufacturers may be unable to obtain or maintain international regulatory clearances or approvals for our current or future products, or our distributors may be unable to obtain necessary qualifications, which could harm our business.

Sales of the Know Labs products internationally are subject to foreign regulatory requirements that vary widely from country to country. In addition, the FDA regulates exports of medical devices from the U.S. Complying with international regulatory requirements can be an expensive and time-consuming process, and marketing approval or clearance is not certain. The time required to obtain clearances or approvals, if required by other countries, may be longer than that required for FDA clearance or approvals, and requirements for such clearances or approvals may significantly differ from FDA requirements. We may rely on third-party distributors to obtain regulatory clearances and approvals required in other countries, and these distributors may be unable to obtain or maintain such clearances or approvals. Our distributors may also incur significant costs in attempting to obtain and in maintaining foreign regulatory approvals or clearances, which could increase the difficulty of attracting and retaining qualified distributors. If our distributors experience delays in receiving necessary qualifications, clearances or approvals to market our products outside the U.S., or if they fail to receive those qualifications, clearances or approvals, we may be unable to market our products or enhancements in international markets effectively, or at all.

Foreign governmental authorities that regulate the manufacture and sale of medical devices have become increasingly stringent and, to the extent we market and sell our products outside of the U.S., we may be subject to rigorous international regulation in the future. In these circumstances, we would be required to rely on our foreign independent distributors to comply with the varying regulations, and any failures on their part could result in restrictions on the sale of our product in foreign countries.

Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock

The price of our common stock is volatile, which may cause investment losses for our stockholders.

The market price of our common stock has been and is likely in the future to be volatile. Our common stock price may fluctuate in response to factors such as:

	·	Announcements by us regarding liquidity, significant acquisitions, equity investments and divestitures, strategic relationships, addition or loss of significant customers and contracts, capital expenditure commitments and litigation;

	·	Issuance of convertible or equity securities and related warrants for general or merger and acquisition purposes;

	·	Issuance or repayment of debt, accounts payable or convertible debt for general or merger and acquisition purposes;

	·	Sale of a significant number of shares of our common stock by stockholders;

	·	General market and economic conditions;

	·	Quarterly variations in our operating results;

	·	Investor and public relation activities;

	·	Announcements of technological innovations;

	·	New product introductions by us or our competitors;

	·	Competitive activities;

	·	Low liquidity; and

	·	Additions or departures of key personnel.

These broad market and industry factors may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The sale of a significant number of our shares of common stock could depress the price of our common stock.

As of June 30, 2022, we had 43,802,147 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. As of June 30, 2022, there were options outstanding for the purchase of 20,927,370 common shares (including unearned stock option grants totaling 11,550,745 shares related to performance targets), warrants for the purchase of 21,651,513 common shares, and 8,108,356 shares of our common stock issuable upon the conversion of Series C and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. In addition, we currently have 9,020,264 common shares at the current price of $0.25 per share reserved and are issuable upon conversion of convertible debentures of $2,255,066. All of which could potentially dilute future earnings per share but are excluded from the June 30, 2022, calculation of net loss per share because their impact is antidilutive.

Table of Contents

Significant shares of common stock are held by our principal stockholders, other company insiders and other large stockholders. As “affiliates,” as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, our principal stockholders, other of our insiders and other large stockholders may only sell their shares of common stock in the public market pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144.

These options, warrants, convertible notes payable and convertible preferred stock could result in further dilution to common stockholders and may affect the market price of the common stock.

Future issuance of additional shares of common stock and/or preferred stock could dilute existing stockholders. We have and may issue preferred stock that could have rights that are preferential to the rights of common stock that could discourage potentially beneficial transactions to our common stockholders.

Pursuant to our articles of incorporation, we currently have authorized 200,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. To the extent that common shares are available for issuance, subject to compliance with applicable stock exchange listing rules, our board of directors has the ability to issue additional shares of common stock in the future for such consideration as the board of directors may consider sufficient. The issuance of any additional securities could, among other things, result in substantial dilution of the percentage ownership of our stockholders at the time of issuance, result in substantial dilution of our earnings per share and adversely affect the prevailing market price for our common stock.

An issuance of additional shares of preferred stock could result in a class of outstanding securities that would have preferences with respect to voting rights and dividends and in liquidation over our common stock and could, upon conversion or otherwise, have all of the rights of our common stock. Our board of directors’ authority to issue preferred stock could discourage potential takeover attempts or could delay or prevent a change in control through merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise by making these attempts more difficult or costly to achieve. The issuance of preferred stock could impair the voting, dividend and liquidation rights of common stockholders without their approval.

Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors also has the authority to issue preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.

Future issuances of debt securities, which would rank senior to our common stock upon our bankruptcy or liquidation, and future issuances of preferred stock, which could rank senior to our common stock for the purposes of dividends and liquidating distributions, may adversely affect the level of return you may be able to achieve from an investment in our securities.

In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by offering debt securities. Upon bankruptcy or liquidation, holders of our debt securities, and lenders with respect to other borrowings we may make, would receive distributions of our available assets prior to any distributions being made to holders of our common stock. Moreover, if we issue preferred stock, the holders of such preferred stock could be entitled to preferences over holders of common stock in respect of the payment of dividends and the payment of liquidating distributions. Because our decision to issue debt or preferred stock in any future offering, or borrow money from lenders, will depend in part on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any such future offerings or borrowings. Holders of our securities must bear the risk that any future offerings we conduct or borrowings we make may adversely affect the level of return, if any, they may be able to achieve from an investment in our securities.

Future capital raises may dilute our existing stockholders’ ownership and/or have other adverse effects on our operations.

If we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our existing stockholders’ percentage ownership will be reduced, and these stockholders may experience substantial dilution. We may also issue equity securities that provide for rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our common stock. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt securities, these debt securities would have rights senior to those of our common stock and the terms of the debt securities issued could impose significant restrictions on our operations, including liens on our assets. If we raise additional funds through collaborations and licensing arrangements, we may be required to relinquish some rights to our technologies or candidate products, or to grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

Table of Contents

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain all of our future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, the terms of any future debt agreements may preclude us from paying dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock will be your sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.

If securities industry analysts do not publish research reports on us, or publish unfavorable reports on us, then the market price and market trading volume of our common stock could be negatively affected.

Any trading market for our common stock may be influenced in part by any research reports that securities industry analysts publish about us. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by securities industry analysts. If no securities industry analysts commence coverage of us, the market price and market trading volume of our securities could be negatively affected. In the event we are covered by analysts, and one or more of such analysts downgrade our securities, or otherwise reports on us unfavorably, or discontinues coverage of us, the market price and market trading volume of our securities could be negatively affected.

If our securities become subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares.

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If we do not retain a listing on NYSE American or another national securities exchange and if the price of our securities is less than $5.00, our securities could be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our securities, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their securities.

Anti-takeover provisions may limit the ability of another party to acquire our company, which could cause our stock price to decline.

Our articles of incorporation, our bylaws and Nevada law contain provisions that could discourage, delay or prevent a third party from acquiring our company, even if doing so may be beneficial to our stockholders. In addition, these provisions could limit the price investors would be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

We are authorized to issue "blank check" preferred stock without stockholder approval, which could adversely impact the rights of holders of our securities.

Our articles of incorporation authorize us to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock. Any preferred stock that we issue in the future may rank ahead of our securities in terms of dividend priority or liquidation premiums and may have greater voting rights than our securities. In addition, such preferred stock may contain provisions allowing those shares to be converted into shares of common stock, which could dilute the value of our securities to current stockholders and could adversely affect the market price, if any, of our securities. In addition, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of authorized preferred stock, there can be no assurance that we will not do so in the future.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had the following unregistered sales of equity securities:

We issued 62,500 shares of common stock related to the exercise of warrants and received $27,500.

We issued 1,875 shares related to the exercise of stock option grants and received $2,344.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Employment Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of May 13, 2022, with employment to commence on May 20, 2022, or such other date agreed upon by the Parties (the “Effective Date”), by and between KNOW LABS, Inc. (the “Company”) and Peter Conley (“Executive”) (together, the “Parties” and each, a “Party”).

1. Duties and Scope of Employment.

(a) Position and Duties. Executive will serve as a Senior Vice President, Intellectual Property and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Position”). As of the Effective Date, Executive will render such services in the performance of his duties, consistent with the Position, as will be assigned to him by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

(b) Term. Executive shall initially be employed in the Position until this Agreement is terminated. The period during which Executive is employed by the Company under this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Employment Term.”

(c) Obligations. During the Employment Term, Executive will devote such time and attention as is necessary to provide services to or on behalf of the Company consistent with the Position and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and will use good faith efforts to discharge his obligations under this Agreement to the best of his ability and in accordance with each of the Company’s corporate ethics guidelines, conflict of interests policies and code of conduct as may be in effect from time to time. It is agreed between the parties that the Executive shall continue to maintain his FINRA registration with his sponsor firm and will clear in writing with the Company’s Chairman and/or CEO any and all activities pursuant thereto for conflict with the duties of this employment.

2. At-Will Employment. Executive and the Company agree that Executive’s employment with the Company constitutes “at-will” employment. Executive and the Company acknowledge that this employment relationship may be terminated at any time, upon written notice to the other Party, with or without Cause (as defined below), at the option either of the Company or Executive.

3. Compensation.

(a) Base Salary. As of the Effective Date, the Company will initially pay Executive an annualized base salary of $300,000 as compensation for his services (such annual salary, as is then effective, to be referred to herein as “Base Salary”). The Base Salary will be paid periodically in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices and be subject to the usual required withholdings.

(b) Bonus. Executive may be entitled to bonuses from time to time as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or its Compensation Committee in their sole discretion (the “Bonus”). Bonuses, if any, will be paid as soon as practicable after they have been determined, but not later than thirty (30) days after they are determined, provided that Executive is still employed by the Company at the time of payment.

(c) Equity Awards. Executive shall be eligible for equity awards under the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) or outside the Plan and the agreement(s) by and between Executive and the Company thereunder (collectively, the “Equity Documents”). Any such awards shall be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and/or Compensation Committee and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. Initially, Executive will eligible for a grant of 1,000,000 shares of restricted common stock, with an agreed fair market value on date of grant, vesting quarterly over a period of four years with no vesting in the first six months.

4. Executive Benefits.

(a) Generally. Executive will be eligible to participate in accordance with the terms of all Company employee benefit plans, policies and arrangements that are applicable to other executive officers of the Company, as such plans, policies and arrangements may exist or change from time to time at the discretion of the Company. Your eligibility for the Company’s 401k plan will begin six months following the Effective Date. Your benefits will include 60 hours [7.5 days] per year of Paid Sick Leave [PSL]. In the event your employment terminates before you have accrued all the PSL you have actually used, you agree the Company may withhold and deduct from your final paycheck the pay associated with the PSL days used, but not accrued.

(b) Vacation. Executive will be entitled to receive unlimited paid annual vacation subject to periodic review and oversight by the Board.

5. Expenses. The Company will reimburse Executive for reasonable travel, entertainment and other expenses incurred by Executive in the furtherance of the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder (including business related travel requested by the Company), in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy as in effect from time to time.

6. Termination of Employment.

(a) Termination for Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement and Executive’s employment at any time without prior notice for "Cause" (as defined below) with no severance or other obligation to Executive, other than (a) payment of the amount of unpaid earned Base Salary accrued pursuant to Section 3(a), and (b) unreimbursed business expenses required to be reimbursed to Executive in accordance with Section 5 and the Company’s expense reimbursement policy as in effect from time to time. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall consist of (i) any act of dishonesty or fraud by Executive in connection with his duties which is materially detrimental to the Company, or intended to result in his substantial personal enrichment; (ii) Executive's conviction or a plea of nolo contendre to a crime which the Board reasonably believes has had, or will have, a materially detrimental effect on the Company’s business or reputation; (iii) Executive's material breach of this Agreement if not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice; (iv) Executive’s grossly negligent or willful misconduct that is inconsistent with the Company’s then-established practices or places the Company at material risk of significant liability; or (v) Executive’s repeated failure to abide by the lawful written policies and directives of the Board of Directors. A resignation by Executive at any time after the occurrence of an event that would constitute Cause for termination by the Company shall be considered a termination by the Company for Cause.

(b) Termination without Cause. Subject to the obligations stated in Section 6(e), which shall survive such termination, the Company may terminate this Agreement and Executive’s employment, without Cause, at any time for any reason, or no reason, and with or without notice during the Employment Term.

(c) Resignation by Executive for Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment and this Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice for “Good Reason” (as defined below) and in such event Executive shall be entitled to the severance provisions described in Section 6(e), which shall survive such termination. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall consist of (a) a material diminution in Executive’s compensation unless such diminution is necessitated by financial necessity of the Company and is effected with all other executives in the same proportion, (b) a material diminution of Executive’s office, title, or duties from the Effective Date of this Agreement; (c) a medical disability, as determined by a mutually acceptable independent third party, on the part of the Executive; or (d) a Change of Control; provided that Executive provides the Company with written notice of his intent to terminate within 180 days following the Change of Control. Unless the Company fails to cure the Good Reason set forth in the Executive’s notice, Executive must terminate his employment on the 31^st day following such notice. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” means any of the following events: (i) consummation of any merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company is not the continuing or surviving corporation, or pursuant to which shares of the Company’s common stock are converted into cash, securities, or other property, if following such merger or consolidation the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting securities immediately prior to such merger or consolidation own less than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving corporation; (ii) consummation of any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer, in one transaction or a series of related transactions of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; or (iii) a change in ownership of the Company’s capital stock as a result of which the owners of the Company’s outstanding capital stock immediately prior to the change own less than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s outstanding capital stock following such change.

(d) Voluntary Termination by Executive without Good Reason. Executive may terminate this Agreement without Good Reason by providing thirty (30) days written notice. In such event, Executive shall be entitled to pay or pay in lieu of notice, and the other compensation as would be payable in the event of a termination without Cause.

(e) Severance Payments. In the event Executive’s employment is terminated after the Effective Date (a) by the Company without Cause, or (b) by Executive for Good Reason, subject to the conditions stated herein, the Company shall: (i) pay Executive severance pay equal to twelve (12) months of his then-in-effect Base Salary, which shall be payable in a lump sum within thirty (30) days following the termination date; (ii) provide Executive and those of his dependents who are eligible for benefits under the terms of the Company’s then available health insurance plan at the Executive’s expense for a period of up to three (3) months after the date of termination per WA state law, until such time the Company qualifies for COBRA. However, if Executive obtains coverage under another employer’s health care plan within this three (3) month period, he agrees to notify Company within five (5) business days of obtaining alternate coverage, and the Company’s obligations to continue health insurance coverage will cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s obligation to provide the severance benefits hereunder is expressly conditioned upon Executive’s execution of a release of all claims against the Company, its officers, directors and affiliate, including, but not limited to those related to his employment and/or termination (other than obligations owed under this Section 7 and/or claims related to Executive’s status as a shareholder).

7. Indemnification. Subject to applicable law, Executive will be provided indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by the Company’s directors and officers insurance policies, if any, with such indemnification to be on terms determined by the Board or any of its committees and subject to the terms of any separate written indemnification agreement. Executive has entered into a separate indemnity agreement with the Company, and will be covered under any Company’s policy of commercial general liability and directors and officers liability insurance during Executive’s employment and after termination of employment in each case to the same extent as members of the Board.

8. Contemporaneous Agreement. Executive acknowledges he has executed and agrees to be bound by the Proprietary Information, Invention Assignment, Post Employment Restraints and Arbitration Agreement between Executive and the Company dated on or about May 13,2022 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

9. Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of (a) the heirs, executors and legal representatives of Executive upon Executive’s death, and (b) any successor of the Company. Any such successor of the Company will be deemed substituted for the Company under the terms of this Agreement for all purposes. For this purpose, “successor” means any person, firm, corporation, or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger, or otherwise, directly or indirectly acquires all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company. None of the rights of Executive to receive any form of compensation payable pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned or transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any other attempted assignment, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits will be null and void.
