AZITRA, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On April 24, 2025, the Company entered into an Equity Line of Credit ("ELOC") with Alumni Capital LP ("Alumni Capital"), whereby the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Alumni Capital, and Alumni Capital is obligated to purchase, up to an aggregate of $20 million of shares of the Company's common stock in a series of purchases.

Refer to Note 6 for additional details relating to the 2024 Reverse Stock Split, and the 2025 Reverse Stock Split (together, the "Reverse Stock Splits").
Other Events
On October 1, 2025, the Company received a deficiency letter (the “Deficiency Letter”) from the NYSE American LLC ("NYSE American") indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards set forth in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE American Company Guide. Section 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE American Company Guide requires a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $4.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years. The Deficiency Letter noted that the Company reported stockholders’ equity of $2.2 million as of June 30, 2025, and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2024.
In order to maintain the Company’s listing on the NYSE American, the NYSE American requested that the Company submit a plan of compliance (the “Plan”) by October 31, 2025 addressing how the Company intends to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE American Company Guide by April 1, 2027.
The Company’s management submitted the Plan to the NYSE American by the October 31, 2025 deadline. If the NYSE American accepts the Company’s Plan, the Company will be able to continue its listing during the Plan period and will be subject to continued periodic review by the NYSE American staff. If the Plan is not accepted, delisting proceedings will commence. If the plan is accepted but the Company does not make progress consistent with the Plan during the plan period or if the Company is not in compliance with the listing standards by April 1, 2027, then the Company will be subject to delisting procedures as set forth in the NYSE American Company Guide.
The Company is committed to undertaking a transaction or transactions in the future to achieve compliance with the NYSE American’s requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve compliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing standards within the required time frame.
Going Concern Matters
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future, and which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, management has identified the following conditions and events that created an uncertainty about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. As of and for the period ended September 30, 2025, the Company has an accumulated

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
deficit of $66.3 million, a loss from operations of $8.7 million, used $8.3 million to fund operations and had $0.4 million of working capital. These factors among others raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company will require a significant amount of additional funds to complete the development of its product and to fund additional losses which the Company expects to incur over the next few years. The Company is still in its pre-commercialization phase and therefore does not yet have product revenue. Management plans to continue to raise funds through equity and/or debt financing to fund operating and working capital needs, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing additional financing, if needed, to meet its operating needs.
These conditions and events create substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain amounts in the condensed financial statements and associated notes may not add up due to rounding.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information, within the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented and of the financial condition as of the date of the interim balance sheet. The financial data and the other information disclosed in these notes to the interim financial statements related to the three and nine months are unaudited. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2024, and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 24, 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet. While management believes the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statement are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates in the Company's condensed financial statements relate to accruals for research and development expenses, valuation of warrants and valuation of equity awards. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgements about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Concentration of Credit Risks and other Risks and Uncertainties
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash is deposited with a federally insured U.S. financial institution. The Company has no off-balance sheet concentrations of credit risk, such as foreign currency exchange contracts, option contracts or other hedging arrangements.
The Company is dependent on contract research organizations ("CRO") to conduct, and manage our on-going clinical trials, and contract manufacturing organizations (“CMO”) to supply products for research and development of its product candidates, including preclinical and clinical studies, and for commercialization of its product candidates, if approved. The Company’s development programs could be adversely affected by any significant interruption in either the CRO's or the CMO’s operations or by a significant interruption in the supply of active pharmaceutical ingredients and other components.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these unaudited condensed financial statements.
AZITRA, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Products developed by the Company require approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or other international regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales. There can be no assurance the Company’s product candidates will receive the necessary approvals. If the Company is denied approvals, approvals are delayed, or the Company is unable to maintain approvals received, such events could have a materially adverse impact on the Company.
The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties including the risk of failure to secure additional funding to properly execute the Company’s business plan. The Company is subject to risks that are common to companies in the pharmaceutical industry, including, but not limited to, development by the Company or its competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, reliance on third party manufacturers, protection of proprietary technology, and compliance with regulatory requirements.
Segment Information
Deferred Offering and Deferred Issuance Costs
The Company capitalizes deferred offering costs, which primarily consists of direct, incremental legal, professional, accounting, and other third-party fees relating to the Company’s public offering initiatives associated with the filing of an S-1 Registration Statement. Once the Company completes the public offering, the Company records these amounts against the gross proceeds of these public offerings within the statements of stockholders’ equity.
In July 2024, the Company also filed a Form S-3 Registration Statement and recorded deferred issuance costs as a long-term asset. In September 2025, the Company wrote off the remaining deferred issuance costs of $35,435 as it was uncertain the Company would be able to issue additional shares against the Form S-3 Registration Statement. The write-off resulted in a reduction to additional paid-in capital.
Leases
The Company has 3 operating leases for buildings with a ROU asset and lease liability totaling $1,418,502 . The basis, terms and conditions of the leases are determined by the individual agreements. The Company’s option to extend certain leases ranges from 36 – 52 months. All options to extend have been included in the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability. The leases do not contain residual value guarantees, restrictions, or covenants that could incur additional financial obligations to the Company. There are no subleases, sale-leaseback, or related party transactions.
At September 30, 2025, the Company had operating right-of-use assets with a net value of $478,667 and current and long-term operating lease liabilities of $270,467 and $214,949 , respectively.
In 2023, the Company entered into a lease for the use of certain equipment that is classified as a finance lease. The finance lease has a term of 36 months.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

This ASU is 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. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its condensed financial statements disclosures.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

7. Warrants
The Company issued warrants to purchase 240 shares of common stock in 2018 in conjunction with convertible debt financing that have a redemption provision providing the holder the right to have the Company redeem all or any portion of the warrant (or shares it has converted into) at a purchase price equal to the fair market value of the shares as determined by the board of directors or an independent appraiser. As a result of this redemption provision, the warrants have been classified as a liability in the financial statements based on ASC 480. These warrants have an exercise price of $95.90 per share and a term of 10 years. The warrants are marked to market each reporting period. The fair value was $51 and $381 at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The Company issued 300 warrants to its underwriters as part of our initial public offering in fiscal 2023.

The Class A Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and expire five years from the date of issuance. The Class A Warrants contain ownership limitations pursuant to which a holder does not have the right to exercise any portion of their warrants if it would result in the holder (together with its affiliates) beneficially owning more than 4.99 % (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99 %) of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.

The gross proceeds of $10.0 million from the July 2024 follow-on public offering was allocated to the Class A Warrants resulting in a loss on issuance of common stock of approximately $2.1 million recorded in Other income (expenses).

The significant assumptions in the Monte Carlo simulation model include a stay public assumption of 90%, and a fundamental transaction assumption of 10%. The significant assumptions utilized in estimating the fair value of the Class A Warrants at issuance include (i) a per share price of common stock range of $1.14 - $1.40 ; (ii) a dividend yield of 0 %; (iii) a risk-free rate range of 4.13 % - 4.14 %; (iv) expected volatility of 119 %; (v) projected stock price and volume weighted average price as of the Reset Date of $1.14 ; (vi) a strike price range of $1.40 - $1.50 ; and (vii) expected term of 4.92 years.

General
We were formed in January 2014 as a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative therapies for precision dermatology using engineered proteins and live biotherapeutic products. We are an early-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company and have not commenced commercial operations.
To date, we have capitalized our operations primarily through a series of private placements of our convertible preferred stock and convertible promissory notes and our initial public offering, IPO, of common stock which closed on June 21, 2023. In connection with our IPO, we issued 7,508 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $999 per share. Concurrent with the close of our IPO, all of our outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock and convertible promissory notes converted into a total of 44,802 shares of our common stock. In February 2024, we completed a follow-on public offering in which we issued and sold 83,404 shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $59.94 per share. On July 25, 2024, we completed a follow-on offering of an aggregate of 1,000,750 shares of our common stock, and Class A warrants to purchase up to 2,001,502 shares of common stock, at a combined public offering price of $9.99 per share and accompanying warrants. On January 14, 2025, we completed a follow-on offering in which we issued and sold 729,381 shares of our common stock at a price of $2.00 per share. The net proceeds received by us from the follow-on offering were $1.2 million, after deducting placement agent's fees and other offering expenses. The shares were offered by us pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC on July 1, 2024, and a final prospectus supplement dated January 15, 2025. On February 5, 2025, we completed a follow-on offering in which we issued 374,696 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $1.85 per share and warrants to purchase up to 337,232 shares of common stock. The net proceeds received by the Company from the follow-on offering were $561,000 after deducting placement agent's fees and other offering expenses. The shares were offered by us pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC on July 1, 2024, and a final prospectus supplement dated February 6, 2025. The warrants are exercisable on the six-month and one day anniversary of their issuance, and their exercise price is $0.54.
On April 24, 2025, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Alumni Capital LP (the "Purchaser" or "Alumni Capital"), whereby the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser is obligated to purchase, up to an aggregate of $20 million (the "Investment Amount") of shares of the Company’s common stock in a series of purchases. The term of the Purchase Agreement is through December 31, 2026, or the date on which the Purchaser shall have purchased the shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for an aggregate purchase price of the Investment Amount.
1
During the term, the Company may at its election cause the Purchaser to make a series of purchases of shares, each up to $750,000, or up to $4 million dollars upon consent of the Purchaser. The closing of each purchase pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will be no later than five business days after the Company provides a notice to for the purchase. The purchase price of the shares that the Company elects to sell to the Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will be equal to the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the common stock during the period commencing on the date that the Company delivers a notice requiring the purchase of shares by the Purchaser and ending on the earlier to occur of (i) five (5) business days immediately following such date and (ii) the date on which the Purchaser notifies the Company that it is prepared to proceed with the relevant closing, multiplied by 90%. Upon each purchase, the Purchaser will receive warrants to purchase such number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 10% of the number of shares purchased in the related purchase (the “Warrants”). The Exercise Price shall equal 130% of the price per share paid upon closing. The exercise of the Warrant will be subject to stockholder approval and expire five years after issuance. The Warrants may be exercised via cashless exercise if there is no effective registration statement, or current prospectus available for, the resale of the Warrant shares. The Company could not issue to the Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement shares in an amount greater than 19.99% of the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement (the “Exchange Cap”), unless the Company obtained stockholder approval to issue shares of common stock in excess of the Exchange Cap. On June 23, 2025, at the Company's annual meeting of stockholders, the stockholders approved the sale and issuance of more than 19.99% of our outstanding shares of our common stock, including shares of common stock underlying warrants, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement entered into with the Purchaser.
On August 26, 2025, the Company entered into a Modification Agreement (the “Modification Agreement”) with Alumni Capital to amend certain terms of the Purchase Agreement, dated April 24, 2025, between the Company and Alumni Capital (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Modification Agreement, the Company may at its election, cause Alumni Capital to make a series of purchases of ELOC Shares either at (i) the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock during the period commencing on the date that the Company delivers written notice (the “Purchase Notice”) and ending on the earlier of (a) five (5) business days immediately following the date of a Purchase Notice, and (b) the date on which Alumni Capital notifies the Company that it is prepared to proceed with the closing of the purchase, multiplied by 90% (“Purchase Notice Option 1”) or (ii) the lowest traded price of Common Stock during the period commencing on the date the Company delivers a Purchase Notice and ending on the earlier of (x) the same business day a Purchase Notice is delivered, and (y) the date on which Alumni Capital notifies the Company that it is prepared to proceed with the closing of the purchase, multiplied by 97% (“Purchase Notice Option 2”). Each Purchase Notice delivered by the Company must specify whether Purchase Notice Option 1 or Purchase Notice Option 2 is selected and the number of ELOC Shares to be purchased. All other terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement remain in full force and effect. Refer to Note 7 regarding the terms of the warrants issued in conjunction with the Shares.
As of November 12, 2025, the Company has sold 7,955,823 shares, and issued 795,579 warrants to Alumni Capital LP under the Purchase Agreement with an estimated gross proceeds of $6.0 million of which $2.4 million was received subsequent to September 30, 2025.
As of November 12, 2025, we had 10,204,938 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. Except as otherwise indicated, all share and share price this report gives effect to a reverse stock split effected on July 1, 2024 at a ratio of 30-for-1. As of the date of this filing, our Board is still evaluating the need for a further reverse split and, if needed, the exact split ratio based on our financing alternatives and NYSE American compliance considerations. Our financial statements will not reflect the further reverse stock split until such time as it occurs.
Overview
We are focused on developing innovative therapies for precision dermatology using engineered proteins and topical live biotherapeutic products. We have built a proprietary platform that includes a microbial library comprised of approximately 1,500 unique bacterial strains that can be screened for unique therapeutic characteristics. The platform is augmented by an artificial intelligence and machine learning technology, which can enable the transformation of previously genetically intractable strains. Our initial focus is on the development of genetically engineered strains of Staphylococcus epidermidis, or S. epidermidis, which we consider to be an optimal therapeutic candidate species for engineering of dermatologic therapies. The particular species demonstrates a number of well-described properties in the skin. As of the date of this report, we have identified among our microbial library over 60 distinct bacterial species that we believe are capable of being engineered to create living organisms or engineered proteins with significant therapeutic effect.
We are a pioneer in genetically engineered bacteria for therapeutic use in dermatology. Our goal is to leverage our platforms and internal microbial library bacterial strains to create new therapeutics that are either engineered living organisms or engineered proteins or peptides to treat skin diseases. Our initial focus is on the development of our current programs, including:
2
•ATR-12, which includes a genetically modified strain of S. epidermidis for treating the orphan disease, Netherton syndrome, a chronic and sometimes fatal disease of the skin estimated to affect approximately one in every 100,000, but its prevalence may be underestimated due to misdiagnosis caused by similarities to other skin diseases. We received Pediatric Rare Disease Designation for ATR-12 by the United States Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, in 2019. In December 2022, we submitted an investigational new drug application, or IND, for a Phase 1b clinical trial of ATR-12 in Netherton syndrome patients, and on January 27, 2023 we received notification from the FDA that the “study may proceed” with respect to the proposed Phase 1b clinical trial. After submitting post-IND manufacturing reports, we have commenced operating activities for our Phase 1b clinical trial in December 2023, and we dosed our first patient in August 2024. We reported initial clinical safety results in the first half of 2025.
•ATR-04, which includes a genetically modified strain of S. epidermidis for treating the papulopustular rash experienced by cancer patients undergoing epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor, or EGFRi, targeted therapy. In August 2024, we obtained IND clearance from the FDA to commence a Phase 1/2 clinical trial in certain cancer patients undergoing EGFRi targeted therapy. In September 2024, we obtained Fast Track designation by the FDA in this indication. We dosed the first patient in the Phase 1/2 clinical trial in the third quarter of 2025.
•ATR-01, which includes a genetically modified strain of S. epidermidis that expresses an engineered recombinant human filaggrin protein for treating ichthyosis vulgaris, a chronic, xerotic (abnormally dry), scaly skin disease with an estimated incidence and prevalence of 1 in 250, which suggests a total patient population of 1.3 million in the United States. We are planning to perform lead optimization and IND-enabling studies in 2025 to support an IND filing in 2026.
We also have established partnerships with teams from Carnegie Mellon University and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, or Fred Hutch, two of the premier academic centers in the United States. Our collaboration with the Carnegie Mellon based team also takes advantage of the power of whole genome sequencing. This partnership is mining our proprietary library of bacterial strains for novel, drug like peptides and proteins. The artificial intelligence/machine learning technology developed by this team predicts the molecules made by microbes from their genetic sequences. The system then compares the predictions to the products actually made through tandem mass spectroscopy and/or nuclear magnetic resonance imaging to refine future predictions. The predictions can be compared to publicly available 2D and 3D protein databases to select drug like structures.
We hold an exclusive, worldwide license from Fred Hutch regarding the use of its patented SyngenicDNA Minicircle Plasmid, or SyMPL, technologies for all fields of genetic engineering, including to discover, develop and commercialize engineered microbial therapies and microbial-derived peptides and proteins for skin diseases. We are utilizing our licensed patent rights to build plasmids in order to make genetic transformations that have never been previously achieved. To date, our team has successfully engineered our lead therapeutic candidates without the SyMPL technology. However, we believe that SyMPL will open up the ability to make genetic transformations of an expanded universe of microbial species, and we expect that some or all of our future product candidates will incorporate the SyMPL technology.
Our Strategy
3
Beyond our three lead product candidates, our goal is to develop a broad portfolio of product candidates focused on expanding the application of our platforms for precision dermatology. We believe that we have established a unique position in advancing the development of biologics for precision dermatology.
We intend to create a broad portfolio of product candidates for precision dermatology through our development of genetically engineered proteins selected from our proprietary microbial library of approximately 1,500 unique bacterial strains. Our strategy is as follows:
•Build a sustainable precision dermatology company. Our goal is to build a leading precision dermatology company with a sustainable pipeline of product candidates. To that end, we are focused on rapidly advancing our current pipeline of live biotherapeutic candidates while actively developing additional product candidates. Each of our current product candidates are proprietary and subject to pending patent applications. We expect that most, if not all, genetically engineered product candidates we develop will be eligible for patent protection.
•Advance our lead programs, ATR-12 and ATR-04, through clinical trials. In 2022, we obtained pre-IND correspondence with the FDA for purposes of discussing our proposed regulatory pathway for the ATR-12 program and obtaining guidance from the FDA on the preclinical plan leading to the filing and acceptance of an IND for ATR-12. In December 2022, we filed an IND for an ATR-12 first-in-human trial in Netherton syndrome patients. On January 27, 2023, we received notification from the FDA that the “study may proceed” with respect to the proposed Phase 1b clinical trial, and in August 2024 we initiated dosing the first patient in the ATR-12 Phase 1b clinical trial. In August 2024, we received IND clearance from the FDA for a first-in-human Phase 1b/2a clinical trial in patients with EGFRi-associated rash, and in September 2024, the FDA granted Fast Track designation for the ATR-04 program. We commenced a Phase 1b trial for our ATR-04 program in certain cancer patients undergoing EGFRi therapy in the fourth quarter of 2024 and initiated dosing the first patient in the ATR-04 Phase 1/2 clinical trial in the third quarter of 2025. We reported initial safety results of the first patients dosed in our Phase 1b clinical trial for our ATR-12 program in Netherton syndrome patients in the first half of 2025.
•Broaden our platform by selectively exploring strategic partnerships that maximize the potential of our precision dermatology programs. We intend to maintain significant rights to all of our core technologies and product candidates. However, we will continue to evaluate partnering opportunities in which a strategic partner could help us to accelerate development of our technologies and product candidates, provide access to synergistic combinations, or provide expertise that could allow us to expand into the treatment of different types of skin diseases. We may also broaden the reach of our platform by selectively in-licensing technologies or product candidates. In addition, we will consider potentially out-licensing certain of our proprietary technologies for indications and industries that we are not ourselves pursuing. We believe our genetic engineering techniques and technologies have applicability outside of the field of medicine, including cosmetics and in the generation of clean fuels and bioremediation.
•Leverage our academic partnerships. We currently have partnerships with investigators at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, Yale University, Duke University, and Carnegie Mellon University. We expect to leverage these partnerships and potentially expand them or form other academic partnerships to bolster our engineering platforms and expand our research and development pipeline.
•Expand on our other potential product candidates. Beyond our three lead product candidates, our goal is to develop a broad portfolio of product candidates focused on expanding the application of our platforms for precision dermatology. We have a proprietary platform for discovering and developing therapeutic products for precision dermatology. Our platform is built around a microbial library comprised of approximately 1,500 unique bacterial strains to allow screening for unique therapeutic characteristics and utilizes a microbial genetic technology that analyzes, predicts and engineers the proteins, peptides and molecules made by skin microbes. Our ability to genetically engineer intractable microbial species is uniquely leveraged by our exclusive license to the SyMPL technology.
Other Events
On October 1, 2025, the Company received a deficiency letter (the “Deficiency Letter”) from the NYSE American indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards set forth in Sections 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE American Company Guide. Section 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE American Company Guide requires a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $4.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four

The decrease was primarily related to a decrease of $328,000 in legal fees primarily related to the write off of certain patent expenses and public company compliance initiatives, a decrease of $119,000 in payroll and benefits primarily related to a decrease in stock option expense as options vest, a decrease of $17,000 in hiring costs primarily related to a compensation consultant, and a net decrease of $20,000 in other overhead expenses offset by an increase of $89,000 in financing costs primarily related to work performed to establish our equity line of credit, an increase of $15,000 in the use of business consultants which was primarily attributed to increased hours due to incremental public company compliance initiatives and business development efforts, an increase of $24,000 in public relations costs related to an increase in our base rate and additional services provided, an increase of $10,000 in accounting and auditing expense, an increase $8,000 in software and equipment, and an increase of $14,000 in insurance costs.
We expect that our general and administrative expenses will incur a modest increase in the future as a result of personnel costs, and facility operating costs. We also expect an increase in costs associated with being a public company, including costs related to accounting, audit, legal, consulting fees, regulatory and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance with applicable NYSE American and SEC requirements, additional director and officer insurance costs, and investor and public relations costs.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses include salaries and benefits of all research personnel, payments to contract research organizations, payments to research consultants, and the purchase of lab supplies.
During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, our research and development expenses by category were as follows:
| Three Months Ended September 30, | ||||||||||||||
Expense Category: | 2025 | 2024 | ||||||||||||
Preclinical and clinical research and development activities | $ | 689,571 | $ | 424,692 | ||||||||||

Personnel & consultants related expenses | 474,926 | 508,447 | ||||||||||||
Total research and development expenses | $ | 1,180,078 | $ | 1,015,807 | ||||||||||
During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, research and development expenses increased by $164,271, or 16%, to $1,180,078 from the comparable prior period. The increase was primarily related to a net increase of $239,000 in research and development and clinical trial costs for our ATR-04 program as the program progresses through its clinical trial, an increase of $48,000 in research and development costs for our ATR-01 program, an increase of $29,000 in payroll and benefits due merit increases and an additional new hire, and an increase of $11,000 for lab supplies offset by a net decrease of $104,000 in research and development and clinical trial costs for our ATR-12 program as the program progresses its clinical trial, a decrease of $65,000 in clinical consultant expenditures related to our programs prior to entering into their clinical phases, and a net increase of $6,000 in other miscellaneous costs. There were no government and nonprofit grant revenue received for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. There were no refundable tax credits for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
We expect our research and development expenses to significantly increase in the future due primarily to our planned clinical trial activity and continued development of product candidates.
Other Income
Our other income consists of interest income, interest expense, loss on issuance of stock, change in the valuation of warrants carried at fair value, and loss on foreign currency. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, other income decreased by $1,915,760, or 100%, compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2024. The decrease was primarily related to a decrease of $4,000,000 attributable to the change in the valuation of the warrants, a decrease in interest income of $42,000 offset by a decrease of $2,200,000 attributable to the loss on issuance of stock.
We expect our future other income to be consistent with prior periods.

Service Revenue - Related Party
We generated $— of service revenue under the Bayer JDA during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 compared to service revenue of $7,500 under the JDA for the comparable period in fiscal 2024. The decrease of $7,500 in service revenue is attributable to a decrease in the amount of reimbursable development costs incurred in 2025. We do not expect any further service revenue at this time.
General and Administrative
General and administrative costs during the first nine months of fiscal 2025 decreased by $43,098, or 1%, to $4,908,057 from the prior year period. The decrease was primarily related to a decrease of $209,000 in legal fees primarily related to the write off of certain patent expenses and public company compliance initiatives, a decrease of $98,000 in salaries and benefits primarily due to a decrease in stock option expense as options vest, a decrease of $123,000 in financing costs primarily attributable to the 2024 payment to the previous investment bank offset by the increase costs associated with the establishment of our equity line of credit, a decrease in hiring costs of $20,000 primarily related to a compensation consultant, a decrease of $23,000 in insurance expense and a net decrease of approximately $26,000 in other overhead expenses offset by an increase of $195,000 in accounting costs primarily related to an increase in fees paid to external auditors and NYSE American, an increase of $134,000 for the use of business consultants which was primarily attributed to increased hours due to incremental public company compliance initiatives and business development efforts, an increase of $94,000 for public relations expenditures which increased due to additional services and an increase in our base rates, an increase of $33,000 for software and equipment.

We expect that our general and administrative expenses will incur a modest increase in the future as a result of personnel costs, and facility operating costs. We also expect an increase in costs associated with being a public company, including costs related to accounting, audit, legal, consulting fees, regulatory and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance with applicable NYSE American and SEC requirements, additional director and officer insurance costs, and investor and public relations costs.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses include salaries and benefits of all research personnel, payments to contract research organizations, payments to research consultants, and the purchase of lab supplies.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 our research and development expenses by category were as follows:

During the first nine months of fiscal 2025, research and development expenses increased by $224,688, or 6%, to $3,832,017 from the prior year period. The increase was primarily related to an net increase of $58,000 in research and development and clinical trial costs related to our ATR-12 program as the program progresses through its clinical trial, an increase of $189,000 in research and development and clinical trial costs in our ATR-04 program as the program progresses through its clinical trial, an increase of $109,000 in research and development costs related to our ATR-01 program as the program continues to progress, an increase in payroll and benefits of $76,000 due merit increases and an additional new hire, and an increase in lab supplies of $43,000 offset by a decrease of $211,000 in consultant expenditures related to our programs prior to entering into their clinical phases, and an overall net decrease of approximately $40,000 in other costs.
We expect our research and development expenses to significantly increase in the future due primarily to our planned clinical trial activity and continued development of product candidates.
Other Income
Our other income consists of interest income, loss on issuance of stock, loss on foreign currency translation, change in the valuation of warrants carried at fair value, loss on issuance of common stock, gain on disposal of property and equipment, and interest expense. During the first nine months of fiscal 2025, other income decreased by $1,958,417, or 99%, compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2024. The decrease was primarily related to a decrease of $4,000,000 attributable to the change in the valuation of the warrants, a net decrease of $48,000 in other (expense) income, a decrease of $14,000 of interest income, offset by decrease of $2,200,000.
We expect our future other income (expense) to be consistent with prior periods.
Financial Condition
As of September 30, 2025, we had total assets of approximately $4.3 million and working capital of approximately $0.4 million. As of September 30, 2025, our liquidity included approximately $1.4 million of cash and cash equivalents. We believe that our cash on-hand as of the date of this report will not be sufficient to cover our proposed plan of operations over the next twelve months. We intend to seek additional funds through various financing sources, including the sale of our equity and debt securities, federal grants, licensing fees for our technology and joint ventures with industry partners. In addition, we will consider alternatives to our current business plan that may enable us to achieve revenue producing operations and meaningful commercial success with a smaller amount of capital. However, there can be no guarantees that such funds will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If such financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to further pursue our business plan and we may be unable to continue operations.
To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, our common stockholders’ ownership interests will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect rights as a common stockholder. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements
9
that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making acquisitions or capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates, or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research, product development or future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.
As of the date of this filing, management has determined there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern based on our lack of revenue from commercial operations, significant losses, and the need to raise additional capital to support ongoing operations. Our contractual commitments primarily consist of operating and financing leases with contractual undiscounted balances of $507,394, and $14,788, respectively as of September 30, 2025. Refer to Footnote 11 for more detailed information regarding our lease commitments. Additionally, as we continue to progress our product candidates through clinical trials, we will continue to incur additional costs related to our CRO's. It is common in our industry for the CRO's to require significant up-front cash payments prior to the beginning of such trial phases, and additional cash payments upon the achievement of certain milestones per the contracts' terms.

Critical Accounting Policies
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, there were material changes to our critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Form 10-K dated December 31, 2024 and filed with the SEC on February 24, 2025. We no longer consider our revenue recognition, and estimating the fair value of our common stock critical accounting policies as we currently do not have transactions that produce revenue, and since we are a publicly traded company, we no longer need to estimate the fair value of our common stock as the Company's common stock is traded on the NYSE American.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these condensed financial statements requires us to make judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our condensed financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our judgments and estimates in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. The effects of material revisions in estimates, if any, will be reflected in the condensed financial statements prospectively from the date of change in estimates. There were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates as reported in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and filed with the SEC on February 24, 2025.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not applicable
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of September 30, 2025. In the course of that evaluation, we identified a material weakness as it relates to a lack of adequate segregation of accounting functions. We intend to increase staffing within our accounting infrastructure sufficient to facilitate proper segregation of accounting functions and to enable appropriate review of our internally prepared financial statements. Based upon the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1A. Risk Factors
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Those forward-looking statements include our expectations, beliefs, intentions and strategies regarding the future. You should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 as, in light of those risks, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in our forward-looking statements. Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors included in our 2024 Form 10-K. The risk factors described in our 2024 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.
Changes in U.S. and international trade policies may adversely impact our business and operating results.
We currently rely on foreign third-party manufacturers and service providers in connection with certain aspects of our clinical operations. The U.S. government and persons involved in the Trump administration have made statements and taken certain actions that have led to, and may continue to lead to, changes to U.S. and international trade policies. In April 2025, the U.S. government commenced collecting a 10% tariff on imports from many countries, with higher levies on goods from larger trading partners. If maintained, tariffs and the potential escalation of trade disputes with foreign countries could pose a risk to our business and could result in higher operating expenses. The extent and duration of any tariffs and the resulting impact on general economic conditions and on our business are uncertain and depend on various factors, such as negotiations between the United States and other countries, the response of such countries, exemptions or exclusions that may be granted, availability and cost of alternative sources of supply of materials we purchase from companies targeted with tariffs. The foreign country hardest hit by the U.S. tariffs to date has been China, however we do not currently import any goods or services from China. The tariffs have not been applied to the provision of services by foreign service providers as of the date of this filing, however there can be no assurance that the U.S. administration will not attempt to apply tariffs to the provision of overseas services going forward. There can be no assurance that U.S. policies on tariffs and international trade will not increase the cost of manufacturing our product candidates and supporting materials, and
12
import or export of raw materials and finished product candidates used in our and our collaborators’ preclinical studies and clinical trials.
