Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
(unaudited)
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, LIQUIDITY, AND RISK FACTORS
OS Therapies Incorporated (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation incorporated on June 24, 2019. It is based in Rockville, Maryland. The Company is the successor to an LLC formed in 2018.
The Company intends to focus on the identification, development, and commercialization of treatments for Osteosarcoma and other related diseases. As of September 30, 2024, there is one ongoing clinical trial for Osteosarcoma therapy.
Liquidity
The Company has prepared its financial statements on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has incurred net losses since its inception and has negative operating cash flows. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of the uncertainty concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
As
of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and the Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Special Financial Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in its financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates these estimates and judgments, which are based on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and, as such, actual results may differ from management’s estimates.
Cash
Cash
consists primarily of deposits with commercial banks and financial institutions. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial
institutions. Both interest and non-interest bearing accounts with the same insured depository institution are insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) for a combined total of $

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
Fixed Asset Policy
A
capital asset is defined as a unit of property that has an economic useful life that extends beyond 12 months. Any items costing
below the threshold or not fitting the definition of a capital asset will be expensed in the financial statements. All capital assets
are recorded at historical cost as of the date acquired. Computer assets will be capitalized and Straight-Line depreciated over
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the book values of the assets to future net undiscounted cash flows that the assets or the asset groups are expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the book value of the assets exceed their fair value, which is measured based on the estimated discounted future net cash flows arising from the assets or asset groups. No impairment losses on long-lived assets have been recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 or the year ended December 31, 2023.
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred
offering costs consist of capitalized underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that
are directly related to the Company’s initial public offering and that were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion
of the Company’s initial public offering. At September 30, 2024, the Company no capitalized deferred offering costs. At December
31, 2023, the Company had $
Debt Discount and Redemption Premium
The Company evaluated the Notes in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and determined the Notes are considered share-settled debt and should be recorded as a liability. This conclusion was determined based on the debt providing the holder with a variable number of shares at settlement with an aggregate fair value equal to the debt instrument’s outstanding principal. The general measurement guidance in ASC 480 requires obligations that can be settled in shares with a fixed monetary value at settlement (e.g., share-settled debt) to be carried at fair value unless other accounting guidance specifies another measurement attribute. It has been determined that the appropriate guidance for share-settled debt is ASC 835. As a result, the Notes will be recorded at the amortized cost.
The initial fair value of the redemption value relating to the convertible debt instruments are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method. If a loan is paid in full, any unamortized financing costs will be removed from the related accounts and charged to operations. Amortization of debt discount is recorded as a component of interest expense. In accordance with ASU 2015-03, Interest — Imputation of Interest, the unamortized debt discount is presented in the accompanying balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Research and development expenses include, among other things, salaries, costs of outside collaborators and outside services, and supplies.
Revenue Recognition
As of the date of incorporation, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, “ASC 606”), which (i) creates a single framework for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers that fall within its scope and (ii) revises when it is appropriate to recognize a gain (loss) from the transfer of nonfinancial assets.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company, in accordance with ASC 718, employs the use of stock-based compensation. The compensation expense related to stock granted to employees and non-employees is measured at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Forfeitures are recognized as a reduction of stock-based compensation expense as they occur. Stock-based compensation expense for an award with a performance condition is recognized when the achievement of such performance condition is determined to be probable. If the outcome of such performance condition is not determined to be probable or is not met, no compensation expense is recognized and any previously recognized compensation expense is reversed.
Short-term Leases
For short-term leases, 12
months or less, we record rent expense. Our only lease currently meets this exemption and has been expensed. We have not renewed the current
lease due to landlord restrictions; the ownership is renovating the premises. We have temporarily moved our primary office to 115 Pullman
Crossing Road, Suite #103 in Grasonville, Maryland 21638. The space is the primary office of our Chief Financial Officer and is being
provided rent free. In May 2024, we signed a month-to-month lease with JLabs for $
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset-and-liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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 the deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded if it is “more likely than not” that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods.
The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 740-10 in assessing uncertain tax positions. The standard applies to all tax positions and clarifies the recognition of tax benefits in the financial statements by providing for a two-step approach of recognition and measurement. The first step involves assessing whether the tax position is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination based upon its technical merits. The second step involves measurement of the amount to be recognized.
Tax
positions that meet the more-likely than-not threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than
The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to tax positions in income tax expense. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no unrecognized uncertain income tax positions.
Basic and Diluted Loss per Share
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all diluted potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible notes payable using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is antidilutive.

Fair Value Measurements
The Company applies ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The carrying value of the Company’s prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses are approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The redemption feature of the debt instruments is recorded at fair value (See Note 3).
The valuation hierarchy is composed of three levels. The classification within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels within the valuation hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 — Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 — Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company evaluated the Notes in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), and determined the Notes are considered share-settled debt and should be recorded as a liability. This conclusion was determined based on the debt providing the holder with a variable number of shares at settlement with an aggregate fair value equal to the debt instrument’s outstanding principal. The general measurement guidance in ASC 480 requires obligations that can be settled in shares with a fixed monetary value at settlement (e.g., share-settled debt) to be carried at fair value unless other accounting guidance specifies another measurement attribute. It has been determined that the appropriate guidance for share-settled debt is ASC 835. As a result, the Notes were recorded at the amortized cost.

Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be involved in disputes, including litigation, relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. Any of these claims could subject the Company to costly legal expenses and, while management generally believes that there will be adequate insurance to cover different liabilities at such time the Company becomes a public company and commences clinical trials, the Company’s future insurance carriers may deny coverage or policy limits may be inadequate to fully satisfy any damage awards or settlements. If this were to happen, the payment of any such awards could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial position. Additionally, any such claims, whether or not successful, could damage the Company’s reputation and business. The Company is currently not a party to any legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Overview
We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the identification, development and commercialization of treatments for Osteosarcoma (OS) and other solid tumors. Our mission is to address the significant need for new treatments in cancers of the bone in children and young adults. Osteosarcoma is an extremely challenging and often aggressive cancer that has particular treatment challenges due to its location, changing genotypes and high metastases rates. We are currently seeking to answer the call for new treatments that will prevent metastasis and the recurrence of metastases with our lead core product candidate OST-HER2 (also known as OST31-164), a cancer immunotherapy product candidate that produces a cellular immune response against the cancer antigen HER2. In 2021, we opened a clinical study to produce data for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of OST-HER2 in patients after resection of recurrent Osteosarcoma, which achieved full enrollment of 41 patients in October 2023. We expect topline results from all 41 patients enrolled in the fourth quarter of 2024 and, if successful, intend to seek regulatory approval for OST-HER2 for the prevention of metastases in Osteosarcoma in 2025. Upon success in gaining regulatory approval from the FDA with OST-HER2 in Osteosarcoma, we intend to evaluate OST-HER2’s potential use, both alone and in combination with HER2 targeting antibodies such as Herceptin®, in other solid tumors including breast, esophageal and lung cancers. OST-HER2 has potential uses in both the prevention of metastases in solid tumors, and therapeutically against HER2-expressing solid tumors treated with HER targeting antibodies.
23
We also own rights to OST-Tunable Drug Conjugate (OST-tADC) platform, a next generation antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) silicone dioxide linker technology. “Tunable” is a term used in drug development that refers to the properties that can be influenced by chemical modifications, and “antibody-drug conjugate” or ADC is a term used to describe a drug made up of a monoclonal antibody attached to a cytotoxic payload, or a highly active and toxic pharmaceutical molecule, through chemical linkers. The ADC links an antibody that can home in on a targeted tumor to deploy the cytotoxic payload or toxic agent against the tumor. Furthering our founding mission, we intend to investigate clinical indications for OST-tADC in Osteosarcoma and other solid tumors
No new treatments have been approved by the FDA for human Osteosarcoma for more than 40 years. In humans, Osteosarcoma is an extremely rare cancer that primarily affects children, teenagers and young adults generally under 40 years of age. We are not aware of any competing adjuvant therapy for Osteosarcoma to be tested in children that is further along in the development process than OST-HER2. This disease is difficult to diagnose. The standard of care following first line therapies is simply to screen and wait for possible recurrence/metastasis, or the development of secondary malignant growths at a distance from a primary site of cancer. Studies published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, “Osteosarcoma Relapse After Combined Modality Therapy: An Analysis of Unselected Patients in the Cooperative Osteosarcoma Study Group (COSS),” by Kempf-Bielack B., et al. (January 2005), and “Second and Subsequent Recurrences of Osteosarcoma: Presentation, Treatment, and Outcomes of 249 Consecutive Cooperative Osteosarcoma Study Group Patients,” by Bielack S., et al. (February 2009), reported that recurrence/metastasis happens in approximately half of all patients within 12 to 18 months following initial remittance. For those patients that experience recurrence, metastasis is typically to the lungs and brain, with survival rates of approximately 13% over the next year, according to these studies.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Critical accounting policies are those that, in management’s view, are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations and most demanding on their calls on judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2 to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report, we believe that the following accounting policies are those most critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
Debt Discount and Redemption Premium
We evaluated the Group A Convertible Notes, the Group B Convertible Notes, the Group C Convertible Notes and the Bridge Notes (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”) in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and determined that the Convertible Notes are considered share-settled debt and should be recorded as a liability. This conclusion was determined based on the debt providing the holder with a variable number of shares at settlement with an aggregate fair value equal to the debt instrument’s outstanding principal. The general measurement guidance in ASC 480 requires obligations that can be settled in shares with a fixed monetary value at settlement (e.g., share-settled debt) to be carried at fair value unless other accounting guidance specifies another measurement attribute. It has been determined that the appropriate guidance for share-settled debt is ASC 835. As a result, the Convertible Notes will be recorded at the amortized cost.
24
The initial fair value of the redemption value relating to the convertible debt instruments are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method. If a loan is paid in full, any unamortized financing costs will be removed from the related accounts and charged to operations. Amortization of debt discount is recorded as a component of interest expense. In accordance with ASU 2015-03, Interest — Imputation of Interest, the unamortized debt discount is presented in the accompanying balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt.
The fair value of the redemption liability is calculated under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and is determined based upon a Probability-Weighted of Expected Returns Model (“PWERM”). This PWERM was determined to be the most appropriate method of estimating the value of possible redemption or conversion outcomes over time. The fair value of the redemption liability is calculated using the initial value of the Convertible Notes less the debt discount rate of 12.5% in Group A, 20% in Groups B and C, and 50% in Groups D, E and F. The redemption liability is then amortized over the remaining life of the note, utilizing the interest rates of 10% and 6% for the groups, respectively. The life of each note in Group A is for a set period of three years and is variable in Groups B, C, D, E and F, with a range of 12 months to three years. We retain the option to negotiate an extended maturity date for Groups B, C, D, E and F. The new embedded redemption values were $0 and $1,541,250 for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The fees associated with the convertible debt raise are legal and investment fees associated with the issuance of the Convertible Notes for Groups A, B, C, D, E and F. There were no related parties who received these fees. The fees are amortized over the life of the Convertible Notes utilizing an interest rate of 10% for Group A and 6% for Groups B, C, D, E and F.
Our convertible debt raises and all associated accounts were closed out to stockholders’ equity on August 2, 2024, which was the date on which we consummated our initial public offering and all outstanding convertible notes automatically converted into shares of common stock.
Components of Our Results of Operations
Revenue. We did not recognize revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 or the year ended December 31, 2023.
Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses are comprised primarily of research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses and licensing costs.
Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for our research activities, including our drug discovery efforts, and the development of our product candidates, which include:
| ● | personnel-related costs, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expense, for employees engaged in research and development functions; |
| ● | expenses incurred in connection with our research programs, including under agreements with third parties, such as consultants and contractors and CROs; |
| ● | the cost of developing and scaling our manufacturing process and manufacturing drug substance and drug product for use in our research and preclinical and clinical studies, including under agreements with third parties, such as consultants and contractors and contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs); and |
| ● | the cost of laboratory supplies and research materials. |
25
We track our direct external research and development expenses on a program-by-program basis. These consist of costs that include fees, reimbursed materials, and other costs paid to consultants, contractors, CDMOs, and CROs in connection with our preclinical, clinical and manufacturing activities. We do not allocate employee costs, costs associated with our discovery efforts, and facilities expenses, including depreciation or other indirect costs, to specific product development programs because these costs are deployed across multiple programs and, as such, are not separately classified.
We expect that our research and development expenses will increase substantially as we advance OST-HER2 and OST-tADC into clinical development and expand our discovery, research and preclinical activities in the near term and in the future.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in executive, finance and administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include professional fees for legal, patent, consulting, investor and public relations and accounting and audit services.
We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we increase our headcount to support our continued research activities and development of our product candidates. We also anticipate that we will incur increased accounting, audit, legal, regulatory, compliance, and director and officer insurance costs as well as investor and public relations expenses associated with operating as a public company.
Licensing Costs. Costs incurred in obtaining technology licenses and asset purchases are charged to licensing costs if the technology licensed has not reached technological feasibility which includes manufacturing, clinical, intellectual property and/or regulatory success which has no alternative future use. The licenses purchased by us require substantial completion of research and development and regulatory and marketing approval efforts in order to reach technological feasibility.
Interest Expense. We evaluated the Convertible Notes in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), and determined the Convertible Notes are considered share-settled debt and should be recorded as a liability. This conclusion was determined based on the debt providing the holder with a variable number of shares at settlement with an aggregate fair value equal to the debt instrument’s outstanding principal. The general measurement guidance in ASC 480 requires obligations that can be settled in shares with a fixed monetary value at settlement (e.g., share-settled debt) to be carried at fair value unless other accounting guidance specifies another measurement attribute. It has been determined that the appropriate guidance for share-settled debt is ASC 835. As a result, the Convertible Notes were recorded at the amortized cost.
Cumulative Series A Preferred Stock Dividend. The Series A preferred stock dividend requirement represents the coupon dividends on our preferred stock and is identified as a separate component of our statement of operations to compute net income (loss) available to common shareholders. The coupon dividends are computed at 5% of the principal per annum and are recorded monthly. The cumulative accrued dividend at September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $375,000 and $312,500, respectively. The Series A preferred stock was converted into common stock on a 1:1 basis in February 2024, and the last coupon dividend was issued in the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Income Taxes. Since our inception, we have not recorded income tax benefits for the net operating losses incurred or the research and development tax credits generated in each year, due to the uncertainty of realizing a benefit from those items.
As of December 31, 2023, we had U.S. federal net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $16.3 million, which may be available to offset future taxable income. The federal net operating loss carry forward indefinitely but may only be used to offset 80% of annual taxable income. As of December 31, 2023, we also had federal and state general business tax credit carry forwards of $1.4 million available to offset future tax liabilities and expire at various dates beginning in January 1, 2022. We have R&D credits that we opted to convert and use toward payroll taxes in amounts equal to $0.3 million as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, we also had a federal and state research and development tax credit carry forwards of approximately $0.3 million, which may be available to offset future tax liabilities and expire at various dates beginning January 1, 2024 and January 1, 2023, respectively.
26
Deferred Offering Costs. Deferred offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, printing and filing fees that we capitalized, which will be offset against the gross proceeds from our initial public offering.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses were approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to approximately $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in vendor expenses associated with our Phase IIb clinical trial and a decrease in vendor expenses associated with out OST-tADC platform technology. The following table summarizes our research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:
| As of September 30, | ||||||||
| (In thousands) | 2024 | 2023 | ||||||

| Total research and development expenses | $ | 1,210 | $ | 455 | ||||
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the direct research and development expenses related to OST-HER2 were primarily lab fees, vendor expenses and staff payroll fees. In 2024, such expenses were primarily lab fees and related clinical support of approximately $1.0 million attributed to our Phase IIb clinical trial preparation and CRO costs as we completed IND-enabling studies. OST-tADC related direct research and development expenses were approximately $0.0 million and $0.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were approximately $1.2 million compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. These expenses were primarily attributed to marketing costs and accounting fees to consultants.
27
Licensing Costs. We did not have any licensing costs for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was approximately $0.4 million compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The amounts of interest are comprised of accretion of debt discount being amortized in 2024 and 2023 from associated discounts related to convertible notes and placement agent warrants, together with interest expenses from the issuances of convertible notes.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the direct research and development expenses related to OST-HER2 were primarily lab fees, vendor expenses and staff payroll fees. In 2024, such expenses were primarily lab fees and related clinical support of approximately $1.6 million attributed to our Phase IIb clinical trial preparation and CRO costs as we completed IND-enabling studies. OST-tADC related direct research and development expenses were approximately $0.0 million and $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
28
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were approximately $1.9 million compared to $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. These expenses were primarily attributed to marketing costs and accounting fees to consultants.
Licensing Costs. We did not have any licensing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was approximately $2.0 million compared to $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The amounts of interest are comprised of accretion of debt discount being amortized in 2024 and 2023 from associated discounts related to convertible notes and placement agent warrants, together with interest expenses from the issuances of convertible notes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating Losses
Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our product candidates. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we reported a net loss of approximately $5.9 million and $6.4 million, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $35.4 million and $28.0 million, respectively. We expect to incur significant expenses at an increasing rate and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future.
As of September 30, 2024 and 2023, we had cash of approximately $1.9 million and $0.02 million, respectively. We have funded our operations to date primarily from the sale of our convertible notes in our private placements, which have provided total gross proceeds of $19.2 million as of July 31, 2024. We believe that the net proceeds from our private placements, together with our existing cash, will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for the next three to nine months.
We consummated our initial public offering on August 2, 2024, converting all our outstanding Convertible Notes into common stock and raising $6.4 million in gross proceeds on the sale of 1.6 million shares of our common stock. Net proceeds from our initial public offering were used to pay off accounts payable and fund continuing losses through September 30, 2024.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for each of the periods presented:
| September 30, | ||||||||
| (In thousands) | 2024 | 2023 | ||||||
| Cash used in operating activities | $ | (4,908 | ) | $ | (2,135 | ) | ||
| Cash provided by investing activities | — | 1 | ||||||
| Cash provided by financing activities | 6,727 | 1,979 | ||||||
| Net increase (decrease) in cash | $ | 1,819 | $ | (155 | ) | |||
Operating Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, operating activities used approximately $4.9 million and $2.1 million of cash, respectively, resulting from our net loss of approximately $5.9 million and $6.3 million, respectively, offset by net non-cash charges of approximately $1.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively, partially offset by net cash provided by changes in our operating assets and liabilities of approximately $(0.4) million and $1.6 million, respectively.
Net cash provided by changes in our operating assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 consisted primarily of an increase (decrease) in accounts payable of approximately $(0.9) million and $1.1 million, respectively, an increase in accrued interest of approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and a change in accrued payroll of approximately $(0.1) million and $(0.1) million, respectively.
29
Non-cash charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were primarily the result of the amortization of debt discount on our convertible debt of approximately $1.4 million and $2.4 million, respectively. Changes in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and prepaid expenses and other current assets in all periods were generally due to growth in our business, the advancement of our research programs and the timing of vendor invoicing and payments.
Investing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, net cash provided by investing activities was approximately $0.0 million and $0.0 million, respectively.
Financing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $6.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 consisted of net proceeds from sales of convertible notes and our initial public offering, reduced by capitalized deferred offering costs.
Convertible Notes
We have completed seven separate private financing transactions from July 2018 to April 2024 in which we issued the Convertible Notes and raised total gross proceeds of $19,186,520 from accredited investors.
Information with respect to the seven separate private financings of convertible notes — A, B, C, D, E, F and BlinkBio — are indicated in the table below.

The total accrued interest on the convertible notes listed in the table above was approximately $0.0 million and $2.0 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The carrying amount and face amount of such convertible notes differ because of the unamortized debt issuance costs and the debt discount (which are amortized over the original term of the instrument) — see accounting policy discussion below. The material terms of each group of Convertible Notes are described below. The Convertible Notes, including interest accrued thereon, automatically converted into common stock upon consummation of our initial public offering on August 2, 2024.
Group A Convertible Notes. From July 2018 through November 2021, we issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1,154,000 (the “Group A Convertible Notes”) to accredited investors, including related parties. Interest on the unpaid principal balance on the Group A Convertible Notes accrued at a rate of 10% per annum, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days. Unless earlier converted into shares of Equity Securities, the principal and accrued interest on the Group A Convertible Notes were due and payable by us on demand by the holders of such convertible notes at any time after the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the closing of the Next Equity Financing (which was our initial public offering). In general, the stated Maturity Date varied from the date of issuance of two to four years and was extended in October 2023, under the same terms, until October 31, 2024.
The Group A Convertible Notes automatically converted into shares of our common stock upon the consummation of our initial public offering. The number of shares of our common stock issued upon the automatic conversion was equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest due on the Group A Convertible Note on the date of conversion by a percentage between 80% to 87.5%, as applicable, of the initial public offering price per share in such offering. The Group A Convertible Notes had conversion capitalization ceilings that ranged from $5 million to $25 million, which limited the price a noteholder must pay in a convertible note-to-common stock conversion occurrence. The Group A Convertible Notes had a conversion price that ranged from $0.39 to $1.97 per share, depending on the applicable valuation ceiling of each note (based on the initial public offering price of $4.00 per share).
Group B Convertible Notes. From April 2020 through June 2021, we issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $5,154,000 (the “Group B Convertible Notes”) to accredited investors. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Group B Convertible Notes accrued at a rate of 6% per annum, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days. Unless earlier converted into shares of Equity Securities, the principal and accrued interest were due and payable by us on demand by the convertible holders of such notes at any time after the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the closing of the Next Equity Financing (which was our initial public offering). In general, the stated Maturity Date was March 31, 2022 but was extended in October 2023, under the same terms, until October 31, 2024.
The Group B Convertible Notes automatically converted into shares of our common stock upon the consummation of our initial public offering. The number of shares of our common stock issued upon the automatic conversion was equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest due on the Group B Convertible Note on the date of conversion by 80% of the initial public offering price per share in such offering. The Group B Convertible Notes had a conversion capitalization ceiling of $19 million, which limited the price a noteholder must pay in a convertible note-to-common stock conversion occurrence. As a result of the valuation ceiling, the Group B Convertible Notes had a conversion price of $1.31 per share (based on the initial public offering price of $4.00 per share).
Group C Convertible Notes. From June 2021 through January 2023, we issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $3,945,020 (the “Group C Convertible Notes”) to accredited investors. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Group C Convertible Notes accrued at a rate of 6% per annum, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days. Unless earlier converted into shares of Equity Securities, the principal and accrued interest were due and payable by us on demand by the holders of such convertible notes at any time after the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the closing of the Next Equity Financing (which was our initial public offering). In general, the stated Maturity Date was May 31, 2024 but was extended in October 2023, under the same terms, until October 31, 2024.
31
The Group C Convertible Notes automatically converted into shares of our common stock upon the consummation of our initial public offering. The number of shares of our common stock issued upon the automatic conversion was equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest due on the Group C Convertible Note on the date of conversion by 80% of the initial public offering price per share in such offering. The Group C Convertible Notes had a conversion capitalization ceiling of $50 million, except that one note was subject to a valuation ceiling of $19 million, which limited the price a noteholder must pay in a convertible note-to-common stock conversion occurrence. As a result of the applicable valuation ceiling, the Group C Convertible Notes had a conversion price of $1.31 or $2.59 per share, as applicable (based on the initial public offering price of $4.00 per share).
Bridge Notes (Groups D, E and F). In November 2022, we issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000 (the “Group D Convertible Notes”) to accredited investors. From February to June 2023, we issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1,100,000 (the “Group E Convertible Notes”) to accredited investors. From June 2023 to April 2024, we issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $3,433,500 (the “Group F Convertible Notes” and, collectively with the Group D Convertible Notes and Group E Convertible Notes, the “Bridge Notes”) to accredited investors, of which an aggregate of $750,000 was issued in April 2024. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Bridge Notes accrued at a rate of 6% per annum, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days. Unless earlier converted into shares of Equity Securities, the principal and accrued interest was due and payable by us on demand by the holders of such convertible notes at any time after the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the closing of the Next Equity Financing (which was our initial public offering). In general, the stated Maturity Date was October 31, 2024.
The Bridge Notes automatically converted into shares of our common stock upon the consummation of our initial public offering. The number of shares of our common stock issued upon the automatic conversion was equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest due on a Bridge Note on the date of conversion by 50% of the initial public offering price per share in such offering. The Bridge Notes had a conversion capitalization ceiling of $50 million, which limited the price a noteholder must pay in a convertible note-to-common stock conversion occurrence. As a result of the valuation ceiling, the Bridge Notes had a conversion price of $2.00 per share (based on the initial public offering price of $4.00 per share).
Demand Notes. On March 6, 2024 and June 28, 2024, we issued demand promissory notes to a lender who was an investor in one of our prior convertible notes rounds in a principal amount of $100,000 and $150,000, respectively. The demand notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum and the principal plus all accrued interest is payable upon demand by such lender. If such notes are not paid on demand by us, interest will accrue at a rate of the lesser of 16% per annum and the highest rate of interest allowable under Maryland law.
As of August 14, 2024, we have repaid the demand notes in full.
BlinkBio. On August 19, 2020, we issued a convertible note with a principal amount of $2,400,000 (the “BlinkBio Convertible Note”) to BlinkBio, Inc., which is a related party based on Dr. Goddard being our Chairman and as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BlinkBio, in exchange for the entry into the license agreement. On March 15, 2021, the principal and unpaid accrued interest of $100,000 of the BlinkBio Convertible Note converted into 1,302,082 shares of our Series A preferred stock and then distributed to BlinkBio stockholders. The BlinkBio Convertible Note had a conversion capitalization ceiling of $19.2 million, which limited the price a noteholder must pay in a convertible note-to-common stock conversion occurrence. On February 9, 2024, the 1,302,082 shares of our Series A preferred stock were converted into 651,041 shares of common stock (on a post-split basis).
TEDCO Grant. In May 2021, we received the first of two tranches from TEDCO’s Rural & Underserved Business Recovery from Impact of Covid-19 (RUBRIC) Grant in the amount of $50,000. In October 2021, we received the second tranche of $50,000, which brought the total reimbursable grant amount to $100,000. We are obligated to report on and pay to TEDCO 3% of their quarterly revenues for a five-year period following the reward date. Income from grants and investments are not considered revenues. Royalties due to TEDCO are capped at 150% of the amount of the award, or $150,000. We have the option to eliminate the quarterly royalty obligation by making an advance payment prior to the end of the five-year period, in which case, we will receive a 10% reduction of the royalty cap percentage for each year prior to the expiration of the five-year reimbursement period that the grant is repaid in full. If we cease to meet eligibility requirements at any time, the reimbursement obligation will become due to TEDCO immediately; however, the discount for meeting the obligation will still apply.

Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments
We enter into contracts in the normal course of business with our CDMOs, CROs and other third parties to support preclinical research studies and testing and other development activities. These contracts are generally cancellable by us. Payments due upon cancellation consist only of payments for services provided or expenses incurred, including non-cancellable obligations of our service providers, up to the date of cancellation.
License Obligations and Research Services
Advaxis. In November 2020, we entered into an amended and restated development, license and supply agreement with Advaxis, Inc. (now Ayala Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) (“Advaxis”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary Lm (Listeria monocytogenes)-LLO (Listeriolysin O) cancer immunotherapies. Pursuant to this agreement, Advaxis granted a license to us that allows us to utilize Advaxis’ ADXS-HER2 construct patents to develop and commercialize ADXS-HER2, our lead product candidate (OST-HER2). The agreement was subsequently amended in April 2021 to modify the payment amounts for Milestones 2 and 3 listed in the table below. Under the terms of the amended agreement, we are required to pay to Advaxis (i) a one-time, non-refundable payment of $1,550,000 (the “License Commencement Payment”) and (ii) certain amounts based on the achievement of the milestones described in the payment schedule below. As of September 30, 2024, we paid to Advaxis a total of $2,925,000, consisting of (i) the License Commencement Payment for Milestone 1 and (ii) $1,375,000 for Milestone 2.
Payments towards the License Commencement Payment have been recorded as licensing expenses in our Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the year ended December 31, 2022. We expect to achieve Milestone 3 in March 2025. The payment schedule for milestones and corresponding payment amounts is set forth below.

All milestone payments are non-creditable and non-refundable and are due and payable upon the achievement of the milestone, regardless of any failure by us to provide notice to Advaxis of such achievement.
In addition to the payments upon achievement of the milestones listed in the above payment schedule, we are required to pay to Advaxis (i) a percentage in the high single digits to low double digits of (a) upfront sublicense fees or (b) clinical or regulatory milestone payment amounts, paid by a sublicensee to us in consideration of a sublicense grant to such sublicensee, and (ii) a quarterly royalty of a percentage in the high single digits to low double digits of net sales of our products containing the ADXS-HER2 constructs.
BlinkBio. In August 2020, we entered into a licensing agreement with BlinkBio, Inc., a privately-held developer of drug conjugate therapies designed to facilitate the treatment of cancer. Pursuant to this agreement, BlinkBio granted a license to us that allows us to utilize BlinkBio’s proprietary technology to develop, manufacture and commercialize certain of our products. BlinkBio granted us an exclusive license for tunable drug conjugates that are directed towards, binds to or modifies the folate receptor alpha and a co-exclusive license for tunable drug conjugates that are directed towards, binds to or modifies any target other than the folate receptor alpha, such as HER2.
Under the terms of the agreement, we are required to pay to BlinkBio (i) an upfront, non-refundable, non-creditable license fee of $300,000 (the “Up-Front Fee”), (ii) a royalty of 6% of net sales of our products that were made using BlinkBio’s proprietary technology, subject to potential reductions on such royalty, and (iii) certain amounts based on the achievement of the milestones described in the payment schedule below.
33
As of September 30, 2024, we had paid the Up-Front Fee. The payment schedule for milestones and corresponding payment amounts is set forth below.

The aggregate amount of payments relating to milestones 2 through 6 payable thereunder cannot exceed $22,375,000.
In connection with the license agreement, we also agreed to issue the BlinkBio Convertible Note. See “— Convertible Notes” above for more information on the BlinkBio Convertible Note.
George Clinical. In June 2020, we entered into a services agreement, as amended, with George Clinical, Inc., a clinical contract research organization. Pursuant to this agreement, we engaged George Clinical to use its clinical research services for our study entitled “An Open Label, Phase 2 Study of Maintenance Therapy with OST-HER2 after Resection of Recurrent Osteosarcoma.” Under the terms of the agreement, we are required to pay to George Clinical certain fees described in the fee schedule below. The total new budget under the agreement is approximately $2,436,928. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023, we paid $345,836 and $921,300, respectively, to George Clinical. These payments have been recorded as research and development expenses in our Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The fee schedule for certain fees and corresponding payment amounts is set forth below.
| George Clinical Payment Schedule | Payment
Amount |
|||
| 1. Service Fee Advance (paid) | $ | 49,989 | ||

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position and results of operations is disclosed in Note 2 to Notes to the Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this report.
The JOBS Act
The JOBS Act permits an emerging growth company such as us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of our first fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.235 billion or more; (ii) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the rules of the SEC with at least $700.0 million of outstanding equity securities held by non-affiliates; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the previous three years; or (iv) the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the completion of our initial public offering.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.
The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of September 30, 2024, that the disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to lack of segregation of duties as a result of limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, information technology and financial reporting.
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first, second or third quarter of 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are not currently a party to any pending or threatened legal proceedings other than the arbitration proceeding described below.
On April 12, 2024, Noble Capital Markets, Inc. (“Noble”) filed a Demand for Arbitration against us in JAMS, claiming that we breached the anti-dilution provision in the parties’ advisory agreement by not issuing to Noble an additional 474,134 shares of our common stock. In September 2024, we settled the matter with Noble in exchange for $50,000 and 320,033 shares of our common stock, which were issued during September 2024.
See also Note 6 to our financial statements contained in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
You should carefully consider the factors discussed under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-283171), initially filed with the SEC on November 1, 2024, as such factors could materially affect our business, financial condition, and future results. The risks described in such registration statement are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, also may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities by the Issuer
On October 31, 2024, we entered into the Equity Purchase Agreement with the Investor, pursuant to which we will have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the Investor, and the Investor will have the obligation to purchase from us, up to the Maximum Commitment Amount worth of shares of our common stock, at our sole discretion, over the next 24 months, subject to certain conditions precedent and other limitations set forth in the Equity Purchase Agreement. Concurrently with the execution of the Equity Purchase Agreement, we also agreed to issue to the Investor, as part of the consideration, shares of the Company’s common stock worth a total of 3% of the Maximum Commitment Amount (the “Initial Commitment Shares”). The ultimate calculation of the per share price of the Initial Commitment Shares will occur on the date immediately prior to a registration statement on Form S-1 covering the resale of the shares to be issued pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement.
The shares of common stock are being offered and sold by us to the Investor pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
Use of Proceeds
On July 31, 2024, our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-276350) was declared effective by the SEC for our initial public offering, which was underwritten by Brookline Capital Markets. At the closing of our initial public offering on August 2, 2024, we sold 1,600,000 shares of common stock at an initial public offering price of $4.00 per share and received gross proceeds of $6.4 million, which resulted in net proceeds to us of approximately $6.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $0.4 million. As of November 14, 2024, we estimate that we have used approximately $5.5 million of the proceeds from our initial public offering for general corporate purposes, including to advance the development of OST-HER2 and OST-tADC. There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from that described in the final prospectus for our initial public offering filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act.
