RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following tables set forth summarized cost of revenue information for the year ended March 31, 2026, and for the year ended March 31, 2025, respectively.
| For the Year Ending March 31, | ||||||||||||||||

| Revenue | $ | 35,695,614 | $ | 33,117,624 | $ | 2,577,990 | 8 | % | ||||||||
| Cost of goods sold | 10,207,557 | 8,817,488 | 1,390,069 | 16 | % | |||||||||||
| Gross Profit | 25,488,057 | 24,300,136 | 1,187,921 | 5 | % | |||||||||||
We generated sales of $35,695,614 and gross profit of $25,488,057, representing a gross margin of 71% for the year ended March 31, 2026, compared to product sales of $33,117,624 and gross profit of $24,300,136, representing a gross margin of 73% for the year ended March 31, 2025.
The increase in product sales for the year ended March 31, 2026, was primarily driven by higher demand for compounded medications across the Company's platforms, including increased prescription volumes generated through the Company's telemedicine channels and customer portals. Growth was supported by continued expansion of the Company's integrated platform, which connects patient intake, prescribing, and fulfillment.
Gross profit increased in absolute dollars; however, gross margin decreased from 73% to 71%. The decline in gross margin was primarily attributable to lower average selling prices resulting from competitive market conditions and changes in product mix.
Additionally, cost of goods sold increased proportionally at a higher rate than revenue, driven by factors such as ingredient cost variability, fulfillment-related costs, and pricing strategies implemented to support volume growth. Management continues to monitor pricing, supplier costs, and product mix in order to optimize margins while maintaining competitive positioning and supporting demand.

Salaries expense decreased from $14,115,643 for the year ended March 31, 2025, to $13,776,033 for the year ended March 31, 2026.
The decrease occurred despite the Company's operational growth and expansion of its workforce and was primarily attributable to voluntary modifications to compensation arrangements by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, CEO, and Chief Operating Officer, COO, who elected to rescind portions of their previously agreed compensation and implemented interim compensation adjustments, approved by the Board of Directors. These reductions more than offset increases in personnel costs associated with headcount growth during the period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $4,154,838 for the year ended March 31, 2025, to $3,571,448 for the year ended March 31, 2026. The decrease was primarily attributable to process improvements and efficiency initiatives implemented across the Company's operations, as management continued to optimize administrative functions and cost structures. These improvements resulted in lower operating overhead, despite the Company's continued growth during the period.
Insurance expense totaled $168,353 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, compared to $180,281 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to the Company obtaining comparable insurance coverage at lower premium rates during the current fiscal year.
Lease cost totaled $180,753 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, compared to $98,434 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to a new lease entered into during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026.
Marketing expenses totaled $2,840,553 for the year ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $2,003,693 from $836,860 for the year ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to expanded digital marketing initiatives, including higher spending on social media platforms and search engine advertising, aimed at driving online sales growth, increasing customer acquisition, and supporting higher prescription volumes across the Company's telemedicine and e-commerce channels.
Bank charges were $1,006,026 during the twelve months ended March 31, 2026, and $1,066,577 during the twelve months ended March 31, 2025.
Legal and professional fees totaled $221,179 for the year ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $84,753 from $305,932 for the year ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower legal and consulting costs incurred during the period, including reduced reliance on external professional services compared to the prior year.
Management is not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceedings that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
For the year ended March 31, 2026, the Company had a net income of approximately $3,600,000 compared to a net income of approximately $3,250,000 for the year ended March 31, 2025.
We are a smaller reporting company, as defined by 17 CFR § 229.10(f)(1). We do not consider the impact of inflation and changing prices as having a material effect on our net sales and revenues and on income from our operations for the previous two years or on continuing operations going forward.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense was $16,327 during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, compared with $21,189 during fiscal year ending March 31, 2025.
INCOME TAX
Estimated taxes were calculated using the 2026 federal tax rate of 21%. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
