Sunshine Biopharma Inc. Revenue Disclosure

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

Over 97% of the Company’s revenues are derived from the sale of pharmaceutical products. Pharmaceutical products can only be sold to a specific customer that is either a registered pharmacy or a registered wholesaler. The Company therefore sells only to customers registered with Health Canada, the Canadian equivalent of the FDA. Contracts are drawn up between the wholesalers and the Company for all indirect sales. In the case of direct sales to pharmacies, purchase orders are used instead of contracts. A purchase order, forecast, or other written instructions to purchase any of the Company’s products placed by the customer constitutes an irrevocable offer to purchase. The customer is responsible for ensuring that the terms of any such order are complete and accurate. The purchase order is only deemed to be accepted when the Company (in its sole discretion) accepts the purchase order and delivers on the purchase. The acceptance of any purchase order can be full or partial, at the sole discretion of the Company. No variations to these conditions are binding on the Company unless agreed to in writing between the customer and the Company.

 

No significant judgments are made in connection with any contracts as the price is already determined, the collection is reasonably assured, and performance obligation is fulfilled when the customer receives the goods. The Company is not required to apply any specific judgments, estimations, or assumptions to determine the price of its products. 

 

Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has been transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of revenues. The amount invoiced for each product is fixed at the Company’s current price list on the date of shipping and known in advance by the customer and does not vary.

 

The Company fulfills its performance obligation when the customer receives the requested products. When the products leave the Company's warehouse, the transport to the customer is insured and the transfer of ownership to the customer takes place when the customer receives the goods. At this point, the Company issues an invoice for the products and remits the applicable sales taxes (GST and QST) to the appropriate governmental agency. The revenue is recognized when the invoice is issued. Unless otherwise agreed to and signed by both parties, payment terms are within 30 days from the date of the invoice. The collection is reasonably assured because of the nature of the Company’s customers. The Company is conducting sales only in Canada. Prices are listed in Canadian dollars and may vary from one Province or Territory to another within Canada. All products sold by the Company are labelled and approved for sale in Canada only and are not intended for export outside of Canada.

 

In the event of any breach by the Company of any product warranty (whether by reason of defective materials, production faults or otherwise), the Company’s liability is limited to, at Company’s option, (i) replacement of the product(s) in question, or (ii) reimbursement of the purchase price. The Company carries product liability insurance and is not liable for products’ failure to comply with the warranty of products if the failure or damage arises because of the customer’s negligence, deliberate damage, misuse or failure to store the products in conditions per Health Canada specifications. The Company is not liable (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise) for any (i) indirect, special or consequential loss or damage, or (ii) loss of profit, goodwill, business or revenue (in each case whether direct or indirect). These conditions also apply to any replacement products supplied by the Company.

 

The Company warrants to the customer that, at the time of delivery, the products are compliant with all mandatory quality standards required by applicable regulatory and legal requirements. In return, the customer is required to warrant to the Company that it holds all relevant permits and approvals required under applicable laws to purchase, store, distribute, sell and use the Company’s products. Visible defects or damages must be reported to the Company in writing immediately, but no later than five (5) business days after receipt of the products. Hidden defects must be reported to the Company in writing immediately, but no later than five (5) business days after the customer becomes aware of such defects. The Company is not be deemed to be in breach of the terms or otherwise liable to customer for any delay in performance or non-performance of its obligations due to circumstances beyond its control, including but not limited to, acts of God, floods, droughts, earthquakes or other natural disasters, terrorist attacks, wars, preparations for war, armed conflicts, civil commotions or riots, epidemics or pandemics, fires, strikes, lockouts, shortages of material or labor, breakdown or damage to machinery or equipment, accidents, any law or governmental order or other regulations or action taken by a governmental entity, or default of any third party suppliers or provider of services or products, or any causes not within the Company’s control.
