MITESCO, INC. – 10-K – MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Edgar Glimpses

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with and is
qualified in its entirety by and should be read together with our financial
statements and the related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
consolidated prospectus. This discussion contains certain forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as described under the heading
"Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements." Actual results could
differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

We are working to open primary care clinics around the US that are in
residential centers and leverage the expertise, training, and license of Nurse
Practitioners. We are focusing on wellness as a core of the practice. Mitesco's
mission is to increase convenience and access to care, improve the quality of
care, and reduce its cost.

We opened our first primary care clinic "The Good Clinic" in Northeast
Minneapolis, Minnesota
in February 2021, and have added five additional
operating clinics as of the date of this filing for a total of six clinics open
and operating at December 31, 2021. We announced leases for two new clinics in
the greater Denver, Colorado area. These new locations are expected to open in
the second quarter of 2022. We plan to open clinics in residential
concentrations of population to enhance the convenience, especially timely due
to the changes in community travel patterns resulting from the pandemic. Our
clinicians use both telehealth (virtual) and in-person visits to treat and coach
the clients along their journey to better health and quality of life. Our
clinics are led by Nurse Practitioners that use their license, extensive
training, expertise, and empathy to help people remain stable or improve their
health. We emphasize wellness, beginning with a clients' co-developed plan that
identifies from where a person is starting and constructs a plan for how they
can achieve their goals. The practice uses an integrated health approach that
includes an assessment of both the individual's behavioral and physical health
and combines this with their activation level and their goals. The clinic offers
wellness coaching, behavioral health care, episodic care, dermatologic services,
and supplements. We seek to care for the whole person's needs.

Like the first clinic, we seek to locate clinics convenient to residential
centers. In pursuit of this approach, we intend to continue to expand our
relationship with Lennar Corporation and other large-scale developers. While we
have no formal relationship with these developers other than as a tenant, we
believe such relationships give us an advantage in recruiting and retaining
clients in close proximity to our locations.



Results of Operations


The following period-to-period comparisons of our financial results are not
necessarily indicative of results for the current period of any future periods.
Further, as a result of any acquisitions of other businesses, and any additional
pharmacy acquisitions or other such transactions we may pursue, we may
experience large expenditures specific to the transactions that are not incident
to our operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have not generated sufficient revenue from operations to support our
operations. We have financed our operations through the sale of equity
securities and short-term borrowings. As of December 31, 2021, we had cash and
cash equivalents of approximately $1.2 million compared to cash of approximately
$0.1 million as of December 31, 2020.

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $5.0 million for the
year ended December 31, 2021. This is the result of our business development
efforts pertaining to the start-up of the first three clinics. Cash used in
operations for the year ended December 31, 2020, was approximately $1.5 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $1.9 million for the
year ended December 31, 2021. This amount does not include approximately $3.3
million
of capital expenditures included in accounts payable at December 31,
2021
. The amounts relate to the purchase of fixed assets and leasehold
improvement on our first clinic. No cash was used for investing activities for
the year ended December 31, 2020.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2021,
was approximately $8.0 million, consisting of proceeds from a private placement
offering of Common Stock of $1.7 million, $2.8 million from the sale of Series C
Preferred Stock, $2.9 million from the sale of Series D Preferred Stock and $0.9
million
in proceeds from a convertible note. Partially offsetting the proceeds
was approximately $0.2 million of payment on notes payable. Net cash provided by
financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2020, was approximately
$1.5 million, consisting of proceeds from notes payable in the amount of $1.7
million
, offset by principal payments on notes payable in the amount of $0.2
million
.

Critical Accounting Policies

We believe that the accounting policies described below are critical to
understanding our business, results of operations and financial condition
because they involve the use of more significant judgments and estimates in the
preparation of our consolidated financial statements. An accounting policy is
deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on
assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is
made, and any changes in the assumptions used in making the accounting estimates
that are likely to occur could materially impact our consolidated financial
statements.




Revenue Recognition



On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new revenue recognition accounting
standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") and
codified in the ASC as Topic 606 ("ASC 606"). The revenue recognition standard
in ASC 606 outlines a single comprehensive model for recognizing revenue as
performance obligations, defined in a contract with a customer as goods or
services transferred to the customer in exchange for consideration, are
satisfied. The standard also requires expanded disclosures regarding the
Company's revenue recognition policies and significant judgments employed in the
determination of revenue.

The Company applied the modified retrospective approach to all contracts when
adopting ASC 606. As a result, at the adoption of ASC 606 what was previously
classified as the provision for bad debts in the statement of operations is now
reflected as implicit price concessions (as defined in ASC 606) and therefore
included as a reduction to net operating revenues in 2018. For changes in credit
issues not assessed at the date of service, the Company will prospectively
recognize those amounts in other operating expenses on the statement of
operations. For periods prior to the adoption of ASC 606, the provision for bad
debts has been presented consistent with the previous revenue recognition
standards that required it to be presented separately as a component of net
operating revenues.

Our revenues generally relate to net patient fees received from various payers
and patients themselves under contracts in which our performance obligations are
to provide services to the patients. Revenues are recorded during the period our
obligations to provide services are satisfied. The contractual relationships
with patients, in most cases, also involve a third-party payer (Medicare,
Medicaid, managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies,
including plans offered through the health insurance exchanges) and the
transaction prices for the services provided are dependent upon the terms
provided by (Medicare and Medicaid) or negotiated with (managed care health
plans and commercial insurance companies) the third-party payers. The payment
arrangements with third-party payers for the services we provide to the related
patients typically specify payments at amounts less than our standard charges
and generally provide for payments based upon predetermined rates for services
or discounted fee-for-service rates. Management continually reviews the
contractual estimation process to consider and incorporate updates to laws and
regulations and the frequent changes in managed care contractual terms resulting
from contract renegotiations and renewals.

Stock-Based Compensation


We recognize compensation costs to employees under FASB ASC Topic 718,
Compensation - Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"). Under FASB ASC 718, companies are
required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation
arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the
financial statements over the period during which employees are required to
provide services. Share-based compensation cost for stock options are estimated
at the grant date based on each option's fair-value as calculated by the
Black-Scholes-Merton ("BSM") option-pricing model. Share-based compensation
arrangements may include stock options, restricted share plans,
performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase
plans. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective
vesting periods of the option grant.

Equity instruments issued to other than employees are recorded pursuant to the
guidance contained in ASU 2018-07 ("ASU 2018-07"), Improvements to Non-employee
Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplified the accounting for share-based
payments granted to non-employees for goods and services. Under the ASU 2018-07,
most of the guidance on such payments to non-employees would be aligned with the
requirements for share-based payments granted to employees.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with FASB
ASC Topic 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
("ASC 815"). As is consistent with its handling of stock compensation and
embedded derivative instruments, the Company's cost for stock warrants is
estimated at the grant date based on each warrant's fair-value as calculated by
the Black-Scholes-Merton ("BSM") option-pricing model value method for valuing
the impact of the expense associated with these warrants.



Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes. Under the
asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance
is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that
the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. No deferred
tax assets or liabilities were recognized as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we
must estimate our actual current tax liabilities and assess temporary
differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting
purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which
are included within the balance sheet. We must assess the likelihood that the
deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the
extent we believe that recovery is not likely, a valuation allowance must be
established. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase or
decrease this allowance in a period, the impact will be included in income tax
expense in the statement of operations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a
comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future
cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an
asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is
recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the
fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed would be separately presented in
the consolidated balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount
or fair value less costs to sell and are no longer depreciated. The assets and
liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale would be presented
separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the consolidated
balance sheet, if material.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are likely to have a
current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Recent Developments


The Company entered into a debt-for-equity exchange agreement with Gardner
Builders Holdings, LLC
(the "Creditor") on January 7, 2022 (the "Agreement").
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company issued shares of restricted common stock,
par value $0.01 per share, of MITI (the "Restricted Shares") to the Creditor in
exchange for the Company Debt Obligations, as defined below.

The Agreement settles for certain accounts payable amounts owed by the Company
to the Creditor (the "Accounts Payable Amount") as well as upcoming amounts that
will become due between the date of the Agreement and April 1, 2022. The
Agreement also settles incurred interest and penalties on the amounts due
through January 5, 2022, as well as future interest payments on amounts to be
incurred in the first quarter of 2022 (collectively, the "Additional Costs", and
combined with the Accounts Payable Amount, the "Company Debt Obligations"). The
Accounts Payable Amount is $500,000, the Additional Costs is $294,912.56 and the
conversion price is $0.25. As a result, 3,179,650 Restricted Shares were
authorized to be issued. The Company's Board of Directors approved the Agreement
on January 5, 2022.

The Company issued a 10% Promissory Note due August 14, 2022 (the "Note"), dated
February 14, 2022, to Lawrence Diamond (the "Lender"). Mr. Diamond is the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company and a member of its Board of Directors. The
principal amount of the Note is $175,000, carries a 10% interest rate per annum,
payable in monthly installments, and has a maturity date that is the earlier of
(i) six (6) months from the date of execution, or (ii) the date on which the
Company successfully lists its shares of common stock on Nasdaq or NYSE. The
purchase price of the Note payable to the Company for the Note was $148,750 and
was funded on February 14, 2022. The amount payable at maturity will be $175,000
plus 10% of that amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Following an event of
default, as defined in the Note, the principal amount shall bear interest for
each day until paid, at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of the maximum
interest permitted by applicable law and 18%. The Note contains a "most favored
nations" clause that provides that, so long as the Note is outstanding, if the
Company issues any new security, which the Lender believes contains a term that
is more favorable than those in the Note, the Company shall notify the Lender of
such term, and such term, at the option of the Lender, shall become a part of
the Note. In addition to the Note and Lender will be issued 367,500 5-year
warrants that may be exercised at $.50 per share and 367,500 5-year warrants
that may be exercised at $.75 per share. These warrants have all of the same
terms as those previously issued in conjunction with the Company's Series C
Preferred shares and its Series D Preferred shares.

The Company issued a 10% Promissory Note due June 18, 2022 (the "Diamond Note"),
dated March 18, 2022, to Lawrence Diamond (the "Lender"), which was subsequently
amended. Lawrence Diamond is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The
principal amount of the Diamond Note is $235,294.00, carries a 10% interest rate
per annum, payable in monthly installments, and has a maturity date that is the
earlier of (i) April 4, 2022, (ii) the date on which the Company successfully
lists its shares of common stock on Nasdaq or NYSE, or (iii) the date of receipt
of the Company of the next round of debt or equity financing in an amount of at
least $1,000,000. The purchase price of the Diamond Note payable to the Company
for the Diamond Note was $200,000 and was funded on March 18, 2022. The amount
payable at maturity will be $235,294 plus 10% of that amount plus any accrued
and unpaid interest. Following an event of default, as defined in the Diamond
Note, the principal amount shall bear interest for each day until paid, at a
rate per annum equal to the lesser of the maximum interest permitted by
applicable law and 18%. The Diamond Note contains a "most favored nations"
clause that provides that, so long as the Note is outstanding, if the Company
issues any new security, which the Lender reasonably believes contains a term
that is more favorable than those in the Diamond Note, the Company shall notify
the Lender of such term, and such term, at the option of the Lender, shall
become a part of the Note. In addition, the Lender will be issued 200,000 5-year
warrants that may be exercised on substantially the same terms as the Series A
warrant issued in connection with the Company's Series D Convertible Preferred
Stock.

On March 18, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the
"Purchase Agreement") with AJB Capital Investments, LLC (the "Investor") with
respect to the sale and issuance to the Investor of: (i) an initial commitment
fee in the amount of $430,000 in the form of 1,720,000 shares (the "Commitment Fee Shares") of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock"), which
Commitment Fee Shares can be decreased to 720,000 shares ($180,000) if the
Company repays the Note on or prior its maturity, (ii) a promissory note in the
aggregate principal amount of $750,000 (the "Note"), and (iii) Common Stock
Purchase Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 750,000 shares of the Common
Stock (the "Warrants"). The Note and Warrants were issued on March 17, 2022 (the

Shares
were issued at a value of $430,000, the Note was issued in a principal
amount of $750,000 for a purchase price of $675,000, resulting in an original
issue discount of $75,000; and the Warrants were issued, with an initial
exercise price of $0.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein.
The aggregate cash subscription amount received by the Company from the Investor
for the issuance of the Commitment Fee Shares, Note and Warrants was

broker, legal, and transaction fees.

October 22, 2021, the Company issued the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock to the investors named therein (the
