Litigations, Claims and Assessments
The Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims and assessments arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company records contingent liabilities resulting from such claims, if any, when a loss is assessed to be probable and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable.
Disputed Vendor Invoices
On June 30, 2024 and July 1, 2024, the Company received two invoices from a vendor in the amounts of $923,880 and $144,300, respectively. The June 30, 2024 invoice represents retroactive interest on invoices going back to September 30, 2022. The July 1, 2024 invoice included miscellaneous unsupported charges related to services performed over the past several years. On August 1, 2024, ZyVersa management sent the vendor a letter disputing the interest and unsupported charges and has requested the vendor to rescind each of them. Although the Company has requested the vendor to rescind the retroactive interest on invoices, the Company believes that, in accordance with the agreement, the vendor can legally charge the Company interest from the point they were notified of the vendor’s intent to charge interest. As such, the Company began accruing interest starting on July 1, 2024, and accordingly, has recorded $780,539 and $268,972 within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company has accounted for the unaccrued interest and unsupported charges of $1,066,978 as a loss contingency and because the liability is not deemed probable, it has not been recorded as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 or 2024.

On January 15, 2024, the Company extended the lease for an additional year for a total base rent lease commitment of $112,064. On January 9, 2025, the Company extended the lease for an additional year for a total base rent lease commitment of approximately $120,819. The Company used the short-term lease practical expedient which permits the Company to not capitalize leases with a term equal to or less than 12 months. The lease agreement ended on January 31, 2026 and it was not extended.
The Company recognized rent expense in connection with its operating lease for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 of $175,660 and $170,022, respectively.
