Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Going Concern

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

Basis of Presentation

The Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates

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

Cash and Cash Equivalents

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

Fair Value Measurements

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

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

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

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

If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

The following table provides a summary of the fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

Warrants: The Company accounts for common stock warrants in accordance with applicable accounting guidance provided in ASC 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, as either derivative liabilities or as equity instruments depending on the specific terms of the warrant agreement. The warrants classified within equity are indexed to the Company’s common stock, provide for settlement in a fixed number of registered or unregistered shares for a fixed exercise price, and are freestanding equity instruments. Accordingly, they meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 815-40 and are not subject to remeasurement in future periods. For warrants classified as equity instruments, the Company applies the Black Scholes model and expenses the fair value as financing costs. For warrants classified as derivative financial instruments, the Company applies the Black Scholes model to value the warrants. 

Income Taxes

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

The Company evaluates its tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are recorded as an expense in the applicable year. The Company does not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. Management’s evaluation of uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof, with due consideration given to the fact that tax periods are open to examination by tax authorities.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has approximately $27 million and $25.2 million of net operating loss carry-forwards, respectively, available to affect future taxable income and has established a valuation allowance equal to the tax benefit of the net operating loss carry forwards and temporary differences as realization of the asset is not assured.

Revenue Recognition

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

The Company receives orders for its CelluSTAT products directly from its customers. Revenues are recognized based on the agreed upon sales or transaction price with the customer when control of the promised goods are transferred to the customer. The transfer of goods to the customer and satisfaction of the Company’s performance obligation will occur either at the time when products are shipped or when the products arrive and are received by the customer depending on the shipping terms. No discounts are offered by the Company as part of payment terms. The Company does not provide an estimate for returns as there is no anticipation for any returns in the normal course of business.

Trade Accounts Receivable and Concentration Risk

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

There was no provision for doubtful accounts recorded at December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company recorded $0 in bad debt expense for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Inventory

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

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company determined that $0 and $33,598 of inventory needed to be impaired and written-off, respectively.   

Patents

Patents are stated on the balance sheet at cost. Costs, such as filing fees with patent granting agencies and legal fees directly relating to those filings, incurred to file patent applications were capitalized when the Company believed that there was a high likelihood that the patent would be issued and there would be future economic benefit associated with the patent. These costs were amortized from the date of the patent application on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 10 years. All costs associated with any abandoned patent applications are expensed.

Accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $16,200 and $12,150, respectively. Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $4,050 and $4,050, respectively.

Future Amortization Expense

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, where applicable to all long-lived assets. ASC 360 addresses accounting and reporting for impairment and disposal of long-lived assets. The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with ASC 360. ASC 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.

When equipment is sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the results of operations. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 the Company determined no impairment was required.

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred offering costs represent specific incremental costs directly attributable to the offering of securities. The deferred offering costs are recorded as an offset to additional paid-in capital or derivative liabilities and charged against proceeds received based on expected proceeds. The Company had $169,582 and $0 deferred offering costs as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred $123,024 and $111,824 in advertising and marketing costs during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

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

Research and Development

The Company charges research and development costs to expenses when incurred. The Company incurred $269,867 and $355,936 in research and development expenses during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense for employees and non-employees is measured at the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation for all stock-based awards to employees and directors is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.

Per Share Information

Basic earnings per share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of potential common shares is not reflected in diluted earnings per share because the Company incurred a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the effect of including these potential common shares in the net loss per share calculations would be anti-dilutive.

The total potential common shares included 40,315,000 of restricted stock units (RSU), 10,732,577 shares for convertible notes payable – related parties, accounted for as stock settled debt, 23,613,654 shares for convertible notes payable, accounted for as stock settled debt, and 3,896,821 shares for warrants. The total potential common shares as of December 31, 2024 include 46,165,000 of restricted stock units, 9,197,376 shares for convertible notes payable – related parties, accounted for as stock settled debt, 10,678,412 shares for convertible notes payable, accounted for as stock settled debt, and 412,500 shares for warrants.

The Company has elected to sequence its freestanding equity instruments based on inception date in reverse chronological order to determine the sufficiency of authorized shares available for issuance. As of December 31, 2025, the Company determined that there are sufficient authorized shares for issuance as our restricted stock units are not likely to vest prior to December 31, 2026, due to the various performance conditions within the restricted stock unit agreements.

Segment Reporting

United Health Products, Inc. operates as a single operating segment, focusing on the development and commercialization of medical devices, particularly its patented hemostatic gauze, CelluSTAT™.

The accounting policies of the operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM assesses performance for the segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income (loss) that is reported on the income statement. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets.

As the Company did not generate revenues in the current period, the CODM assessed Company performance through the achievement of target identification goals. In addition to the Company’s Statement of Operations, the CODM regularly develops and maintains budgeted and forecasted expense information which is used to determine the Company’s liquidity needs and cash allocation.

Leases

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 842, and records right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease obligations for its operating leases, which are initially recognized based on the discounted future lease payments over the term of the lease. If the rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company’s applicable incremental borrowing rate is used in calculating the present value of the sum of the lease payments.

The lease term is defined as the non-cancelable period of the lease plus any options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. The Company has elected not to recognize ROU asset and lease obligations for its short-term leases, which are defined as leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.

New and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands the requirements for income tax disclosures in order to provide greater transparency. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024.  The Company adopted the ASU for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The amendments only impact disclosures and are not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires incremental disclosures about specific expense categories, including but not limited to, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and selling expenses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures. The amendments only impact disclosures and are not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

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