TNF PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business
TNF Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a Delaware corporation (“TNF” or the “Company”) that was incorporated in New Jersey prior to the Reincorporation (as defined below). On July 22, 2024, the Company changed its name from MyMD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to TNF Pharmaceuticals, Inc. by filing a certificate of amendment to its certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware. In addition, effective before the open of market trading on July 24, 2024, the Company’s common stock, par value $ per share (“Common Stock”), ceased trading under the ticker symbol “MYMD” and began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol “TNFA.”
These consolidated financial statements include two wholly owned subsidiaries as of June 30, 2025, Akers Acquisition Sub, Inc. and Bout Time Marketing Corporation (together, the “Company”). All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Isomyosamine (formerly known as MYMD-1) is an oral, next-generation TNF-α inhibitor with the potential to transform the way TNF-α based diseases are treated due to its selectivity and ability to cross the blood brain barrier. Its ease of oral dosing is a significant differentiator compared to currently available TNF-α inhibitors, all of which require delivery by injection or infusion. Isomyosamine has also been shown to selectively block TNF-α action where it is overactivated without preventing it from doing its normal job of responding to routine infection. Isomyosamine is doubly effective at inhibiting inflammation by blocking both TNF-a and IL-6 activity, whereas currently approved anti-TNF and anti-IL-6 treatments for rheumatoid arthritis (“RA”) can only target one or the other. In addition, in early clinical studies it has not been associated with serious side effects known to occur with traditional immunosuppressive therapies that treat inflammation.
At the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on July 31, 2023, the stockholders approved a plan to merge the Company with and into a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary, MyMD Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MyMD Delaware”), with MyMD Delaware being the surviving corporation, for the purpose of changing the Company’s state of incorporation from New Jersey to Delaware (the “Reincorporation”). The Reincorporation was effected as of March 4, 2024. In connection with the Reincorporation to Delaware, the par value of the Company’s Common Stock and preferred stock was changed to $ per share.
Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in U.S. Dollars and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP).
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company. These statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which management believes necessary for a fair presentation of the statements and have been prepared on a consistent basis using the accounting policies described in Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies included in the Notes to Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2025 (the “2024 Annual Report”). Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the accompanying disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Notes to Financial Statements included in the 2024 Annual Report should be read in conjunction with the accompanying interim financial statements. The interim operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 may not be necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year or any future period.
(b) Use of Estimates and Judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements is included in the following notes for recording the fair value of financial instruments, derivative financial instruments valuations, research and development expenses, impairment of intangible assets and the valuation of share-based payments.
(c) Functional and Presentation Currency
These condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial information has been rounded to the nearest dollar. Foreign Currency Transaction Gains or Losses, resulting from cash balances denominated in Foreign Currencies, are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.
| 7 |
(d) Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 220 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income (loss) is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income (loss). Since the Company has no items of other comprehensive income (loss), comprehensive loss is equal to net loss.
(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments, which include short-term bank deposits (up to three months from date of deposit) that are not restricted as to withdrawal date or use, to be cash equivalents.
(f) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value measurements discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, other assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2025 due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative related to the convertible preferred stock was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which uses as inputs the fair value of the Company’s Common Stock and estimates for the equity volatility and traded volume volatility of the Company’s Common Stock, the time to maturity of the convertible preferred stock, the risk-free interest rate for a period that approximates the time to maturity, dividend rate, a penalty dividend rate, and the probability of default. The fair value of the warrant liabilities was estimated using the Black Scholes Model which uses as inputs the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield, expected term in years; equity volatility; and risk-free interest rate.
Fair Value Measurement
The framework for measuring fair value provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are described as follows:
| Level 1 | Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company can access. | ||
| Level 2 | Inputs to the valuation methodology include: | ||
| ● | quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; | ||
| ● | quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; | ||
| ● | inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; | ||
| ● | inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means | ||
| If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. | |||
| Level 3 | Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. | ||
The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
| 8 |
(f) Fair Value of Financial Instruments, continued
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Marketable Securities: Valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
| Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets or Liabilities (Level 1) | Quoted Prices for Similar Assets or Liabilities in Active Markets (Level 2) | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | ||||||||||
| Marketable securities at June 30, 2025 | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||
| Marketable securities at December 31, 2024 | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||
Marketable securities are classified as available for sale and are valued at fair market value. Maturities of the securities are less than one year.
As
of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held certain mutual funds, which, under FASB ASC 321-10, were considered equity investments.
As such, the change in fair value in the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were losses of $
Gains

Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The estimated fair value of the warrant liabilities and bifurcated embedded derivatives represent Level 3 measurements. The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

(g) Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” If liability accounting is required, the Company’s derivative instruments are recorded at fair value at the issuance date and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within twelve (12) months of the balance sheet date.
The Company has determined that the Series F Warrants are derivatives that are required to be accounted for as liabilities. The Company has also determined that the following embedded features in the Series F Preferred Shares are not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument; 1) make-whole interest upon a contingent redemption event; 2) make-whole interest upon a conversion event; 3) an installment redemption upon an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined in the Series F Certificate of Designations (as defined herein)); and 4) variable share-settled installment conversion and as such are bifurcated from the Series F Preferred Shares and accounted for as liabilities. The fair value of the Series F Warrants and embedded features are estimated using internal valuation models. The Company’s valuation models utilize inputs and other assumptions and may not be reflective of the price at which they can be settled.
The Company has determined that the Series F-1 Warrants are derivatives that are required to be accounted for as liabilities. The Company has also determined that the following embedded features in the Series F-1 Preferred Shares are not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument: 1) make-whole interest upon a contingent redemption event; 2) make-whole interest upon a conversion event; 3) an installment redemption upon an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined in the Series F-1 Certificate of Designation); and 4) variable share-settled installment conversion and as such are bifurcated from the Series F-1 Preferred Shares and accounted for as liabilities. The fair value of the Series F-1 Warrants and embedded features are estimated using internal valuation models. The Company’s valuation models utilize inputs and other assumptions and may not be reflective of the price at which they can be settled.
Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be liability classified and recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and remeasured at fair value and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Modification of warrants
The Company applies the guidance in ASC 815-40 to account for warrants that are liability classified that are subsequently modified resulting in a reclassification to equity. The warrants are remeasured at fair value on the modification date, the change in fair value is recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss), and the warrants are reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
(h) Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses represent expenses paid prior to the date that the related services are rendered or used are comprised principally of prepaid insurance and research and development expenses.
(i) Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash on deposit with financial institutions and accounts receivable. At times, the Company’s cash in banks exceeds the FDIC insurance limit. The Company has not experienced any loss because of these cash deposits. These cash balances are maintained with two banks as of June 30, 2025.
(j) Risk Management of Cash and Investments
It is the Company’s policy to minimize the Company’s capital resources to investment risks, prioritizing the preservation of capital over investment returns. Investments are maintained in securities, primarily publicly traded, short-term money market funds based on highly rated federal, state and corporate bonds, that minimize the risk to the Company’s capital resources and provide ready access to funds.
The Company’s investment portfolios are regularly monitored for risk and are held with one brokerage firm.
| 10 |
(k) Investments
Investments recorded using the cost method will be assessed for any decrease in value that has occurred that is other than temporary and the other than temporary decrease in value shall be recognized. As and when circumstances and facts change, the Company will evaluate the Company’s ability to significantly influence operational and financial policy to establish a basis for converting the investment accounted for using the cost method to the equity method of valuation in accordance with FASB ASC 323.
In accordance with FASB ASC 323, the Company recognizes investments in joint ventures based upon the Company’s ability to significantly influence the operational or financial policies of the joint venture. An objective judgment of the level of influence is made at the time of the investment based upon several factors including, but not limited to the following:
| a) | Representation on the Board of Directors | |
| b) | Participation in policy-making processes | |
| c) | Material intra-entity transactions | |
| d) | Interchange of management personnel | |
| e) | Technological dependencies | |
| f) | Extent of ownership and the ability to influence decision making based upon the makeup of other owners when the shareholder group is small. |
The Company follows the equity method for valuating investments in joint ventures when the existence of significant influence over operational and financial policy has been established, as determined by management; otherwise, the Company will valuate these investments using the cost method.
In accordance with FASB ASC 321-10-35-2, the Company has elected to measure its investment in Oravax Medical, Inc. (“Oravax”) (Note 3) as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value. Under this election, an equity security without a readily available fair value is reflected at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. At each reporting period, the Company is required to make a qualitative assessment considering impairment indicators to evaluate whether the investment is impaired. If deemed impaired, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of the investment and recognize an impairment loss equal to the difference between the fair value of the investment and its carry amount. As of June 30, 2025, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether the investment is impaired and determined that the investment was not impaired and thus no adjustment to fair market value was required as of June 30, 2024.
(l) Property, Plant and Equipment
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Costs include expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognized within “other (income)/expense” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.
Depreciation is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or their useful lives.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
| Useful Life | ||
| (in years) | ||
| Plant and equipment | ||
| Furniture and fixtures | ||
| Computer equipment & software | ||
| Leasehold Improvements |
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date.
(m) Intangible Assets
The Company’s long-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, are assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate there may be an impairment. These assets were initially recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition and assets not acquired in acquisitions were recorded at historical cost. However, if their estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount, other intangible assets with indefinite lives are reduced to their estimated fair value through an impairment charge in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.
| 11 |
(m) Intangible Assets, continued
Patents and Trade Secrets
Propriety protection for the Company’s products, technology and process is important to its competitive position. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has 19 issued U.S. patents, 70 foreign patents, 4 foreign patent applications pending in such jurisdictions as Canada, China, Isreal, and Japan, which if issued are expected to expire between 2036 and 2041. Management intends to protect all other intellectual property (e.g. copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets) using all legal remedies available to the Company.
The Company records expenses related to the application for and maintenance of patents as a component of research and development expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss.
Patent Costs
Patents may be purchased from third parties. The costs of acquiring the patent are capitalized as patent costs if it represents a future economic benefit to the Company. Once a patent is acquired it is amortized over its remaining useful life and assessed for impairment when necessary.
Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Company, which have definite useful lives, are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Amortization
Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
| Useful Life | ||
| (in years) | ||
| Patents and trademarks |
(n) Goodwill
Goodwill is evaluated annually for impairment or whenever the Company identifies certain triggering events or circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount. Events or circumstances that might indicate an interim evaluation is warranted include, among other things, unexpected adverse business conditions, economic factors (for example, the loss of key personnel), supply costs, unanticipated competitive activities, and acts by governments and courts.
(o) Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-35 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of those assets are no longer appropriate. The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment.
The Company determines the existence of such impairment by measuring the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) and comparing such amount to the carrying amount of the assets. An impairment loss, if one exists, is then measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the discounted estimated future cash flows. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value of such assets less costs to sell. Asset impairment charges are recorded to reduce the carrying amount of the long-lived asset that will be sold or disposed of to their estimated fair values. Charges for the asset impairment reduce the carrying amount of the long-lived assets to their estimated salvage value in connection with the decision to dispose of such assets.

Company leased a facility in Baltimore, Maryland under an operating lease (“2021 Baltimore Lease”) with annual rentals of
$
The
Company leased a facility in Baltimore, Maryland under an operating lease (“2024 Baltimore Lease”) with annual rentals of
$
In accordance with FASB ASC, Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), which increases transparency and comparability by recognizing a lessee’s rights and obligations resulting from leases by recording them on the balance sheet as lease assets and lease liabilities. The guidance requires the recognition of the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and related operating and finance lease liabilities on the balance sheet.
The Company utilizes the package of practical expedients permitted within the standard, which allows an entity to forgo reassessing (i) whether a contract contains a lease, (ii) classification of leases, and (iii) whether capitalized costs associated with a lease meet the definition of initial direct costs. Also, the Company elected the expedient allowing an entity to use hindsight to determine the lease term and impairment of ROU assets and the expedient to allow the Company to not have to separate lease and non-lease components. The Company has also elected the short-term lease accounting policy under which the Company would not recognize a lease liability or ROU asset for any lease that at the commencement date has a lease term of twelve months or less and does not include a purchase option that the Company is more than reasonably certain to exercise.
| 12 |
(p) Right-of-Use Assets, continued
For operating leases, the lease liability is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments. The Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases, unless an interest rate is implicitly stated in the lease. The present value of the lease payments is calculated using the incremental borrowing rate for operating leases, which was determined using a portfolio approach based on the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. The lease term for all the Company’s leases includes the non-cancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend the lease controlled by the lessor. All ROU assets are reviewed for impairment.
Lease expense for operating leases consists of the lease payments plus any initial direct costs and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company’s operating leases are comprised of the 2021 Baltimore Lease and the 2024 Baltimore Lease on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The information related to these leases is presented below:

(q) Income Taxes
The Company utilizes an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. The provision for income taxes is based upon income or loss after adjustment for those permanent items that are not considered in the determination of taxable income. Deferred income taxes represent the tax effects of differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.
The Company evaluates the recoverability of deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be necessary.
Tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement. A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in the Company’s tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be reported.
| 13 |
(q) Income Taxes, continued
There was income tax benefit recorded for the losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 since management determined that the realization of the net deferred tax assets is not more likely than not to be realized and has recorded a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets.
The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with tax audits is to record such items as a component of general and administrative expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties and interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The Company does not expect its uncertain tax position to change during the next twelve months. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviations from its position.
The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns and state income tax returns. Since the Company had losses in the past, all prior years that generated net operating loss carryforwards are open and subject to audit examination in relation to the net operating loss generated from those years.
Basic earnings per Common Stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of Common Stock plus dilutive Common Stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Potential shares of Common Stock that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered anti-dilutive.
Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and dilutive potential Common Stock outstanding during the period.
As the Company reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Common Stock equivalents were anti-dilutive.

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation”, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line method. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (the “2018 Update”). The amendments in the 2018 Update expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. Prior to the 2018 Update, Topic 718 applied only to share-based transactions to employees. Consistent with the accounting requirement for employee share-based payment awards, nonemployee share-based payment awards within the scope of Topic 718 are measured at grant-date fair value of the equity instruments that an entity is obligated to issue when the good has been delivered or the service has been rendered and any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments have been satisfied.
The Company has elected to account for forfeiture of stock-based awards as they occur.
(t) Research and Development Costs
In accordance with FASB ASC 730, research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consist of fees paid to third parties that conduct certain research and development activities on the Company’s behalf.
(u) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

On September 23, 2021, the Court granted the Company’s Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint and dismissed Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint. The Court indicated that Dr. Akers is “free to file another complaint, however, tort-based ‘Pierce’ allegations, and/or CEPA claims are barred by the statute of limitations.”
On March 1, 2022, Dr. Akers filed a second action against the Company in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Gloucester County (the “Second Raymond Akers Action”) again asserting one common law whistleblower retaliation claim against the Company. The Company believes that the Second Raymond Akers Action was filed against the Court’s specific admonition that Plaintiff does not attempt to circumvent the statute of limitations.
| 25 |
On May 27, 2022, the Court granted-in-part and denied-in-part the Company’s Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint. The Court reaffirmed the ruling in the First Raymond Akers Action that any tort-based Pierce claims are time-barred. However, the Court denied the Motion as it pertained to Plaintiff’s contract-based Pierce claim and “Repayment of Monies Owed” claim. On July 29, 2022, the Company filed its Answer, which included affirmative defenses. As of June 30, 2025, the Second Raymond Akers Action is in the discovery phase.
All legal fees incurred were expensed as and when incurred. While no assurance can be provided, the Company does not believe that the current litigation will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

Note 10—Subsequent Events
On July 2, 2025, subsequent to the end of the reporting period, the United States Congress enacted the Taxpayer Fairness and Growth Act of 2025, which includes significant amendments to the Internal Revenue Code. Key provisions include:
| ● | A reduction in the federal corporate income tax rate from 21% to 19%, effective for tax years beginning after January 1, 2026; | |
| ● | Limitations on the deductibility of certain interest and R&D expenses; | |
| ● | Modifications to the foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII “) and global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) regimes. |
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the legislation on its consolidated financial statements, including deferred tax assets and liabilities. Because the enactment occurred after the end of the reporting period and before issuance of these financial statements, the effects have not been recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2025, consistent with ASC 740 and ASC 855.
The Company expects the corporate rate reduction to have a favorable impact on its effective tax rate beginning in fiscal 2026. However, remeasurement of deferred tax balances and the application of new limitations may result in non-cash tax charges in future periods. The Company will continue evaluating the impact and recognize any required adjustments in the period of enactment.
On August 19, 2025, the Company entered into the August 2025 Amendment Agreement with the Required Holders (as defined in the Series F Certificate of Designations and Series F-1 Certificate of Designations), pursuant to which, the Required Holders agreed to amend (i) the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations, as described below, by filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, (ii) the Series F Certificate of Designations, as described below, by filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Series F Certificate of Designations with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and (iii) to amend the term of the Series F Warrants and Series F-1 Warrants such that such warrants have a term expiring on August 15, 2030. In addition, in consideration of the foregoing, the Required Holder is entitled to nominate one director to the board of directors, provided that such nomination shall be approved by the Company’s Nominating and Governance Committee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The August 2025 Series F Certificate of Amendment amends the Series F Certificate of Designations to (A) (i) extend the maturity date to December 31, 2025, and (ii) modify the schedule of Installment Dates (as defined in the Series F Certificate of Designations), in each case, effective as of June 30, 2025. The August 2025 Series F-1 Certificate of Amendment amends the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations to (A) (i) extend the maturity date to December 31, 2025, and (ii) modify the schedule of Installment Dates (as defined in the Series F Certificate of Designations), in each case, effective as of June 30, 2025.

These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof. When used in the Filings, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or the Company’s management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors, including the risks relating to the Company’s business, industry, and the Company’s operations and results of operations. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Overview
TNF is a clinical stage pharmaceutical company committed to extending healthy lifespan. TNF is focused on developing and commercializing two therapeutic platforms based on well-defined therapeutic targets, Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD:
| ● | Isomyosamine is a clinical stage small molecule that regulates the immunometabolic system to treat autoimmune disease, including (but not limited to) sarcopenia, frailty, adverse effects of drugs used to treat diabetes and obesity, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease. The first indication for which Isomyosamine is being developed is to treat age-related frailty and sarcopenia. Isomyosamine works by regulating the release of numerous pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α, interleukin 6 (“IL-6”) and interleukin 17 (“IL-17”) | |
| ● | Supera-CBD is a synthetic analog of CBD being developed to treat various conditions, including, but not limited to, epilepsy, pain and anxiety/depression, through its effects on the CB2 receptor, opioid receptors and monoamine oxidase enzyme (“MAO”) type B. |
The rights to Supera-CBDTM were previously owned by Supera Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Supera”) and were acquired by MyMD Florida (as defined below) immediately prior to the closing of the Merger (as defined below) that occurred in 2021.
In February 2024, the Company announced the initiation of a fully funded Phase 2b clinical trial evaluating Isomyosamine as a treatment for chronic inflammation associated with muscle loss (frailty or sarcopenia) in patients who have undergone hip or femur fracture repair surgery.
In January 2025, the Company announced that it initiated the first in a series of studies to evaluate the impact of Isomyosamine in preserving lean muscle mass during and after GLP-1 treatment for weight loss and chronic weight management. The Company and Renova Health are evaluating the application of AI and machine learning technologies to identify high-risk patient groups that may benefit the most from interventions that preserve lean muscle mass during GLP-1 treatment for diabetes, weight loss and chronic weight management. In keeping with the FDA’s recent draft Guidance on using Artificial Intelligence, the Company’s partnership with Renova is analyzing data from 30,000 patients to identify high-risk patients. The Company plans to use these data to optimize appropriate patient recruitment, accelerating Isomyosamine drug development. In May 2025, the Company announced positive results from the first stage of a general practice population study focusing on patients receiving GLP-1 agonists. The study series is expected to evaluate the impact of the Company’s Isomyosamine in preserving lean muscle mass during and after GLP-1 treatment for weight loss and chronic weight management in patients who are (a) on GLP-1 agonists, (b) candidates for treatment with GLP-1 agonists or (c) probably not suitable for treatment with weight loss therapy. In coordination with Renova Health, the purpose of this first stage was to analyze 30,000 patients already under the care of primary care physicians and identify convergences between the use of GLP-1 agonists and chronic disorders linked with increased risk of inflammation. The data were parsed into three cohorts depending on prespecified criteria. The Company plans to use these data to optimize appropriate patient recruitment and accelerate Isomyosamine drug development.
Recent Events
On June 24, 2025, the Company announced that it has formed a philanthropic collaboration with the DADA2 Foundation, a nonprofit organization seeking innovative ways to accelerate research into the rare inflammatory disease DADA2 (Deficiency of Adenosine Deaminase 2). Together, the parties are expected to initiate a Compassionate Use (Expanded Access) study evaluating Isomyosamine as a potential treatment.
On June 3, 2025, the Company reconvened its 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, which was adjourned from May 20, 2025 (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Company’s Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (the “Share Increase Amendment”) to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 250,000,000 shares to 1,250,000,000 and to make a corresponding change to the number of authorized shares of the Company’s capital stock. Following the Annual Meeting, on June 6, 2025, the Company filed the Share Increase Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware
At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved of an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect, at the discretion of the Board but prior to the one-year anniversary of the date on which the reverse stock split is approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting, a reverse stock split of all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a ratio in the range of 1-for-2 to 1-for-100, with such ratio to be determined by the board of directors of the Company in its discretion and included in a public announcement.

Going Concern
As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s cash on hand was $207,553 and marketable securities were $3,605,508. The Company has incurred a net loss attributable to stockholders of $4,710,803 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had working capital of $(397,585) and stockholders’ equity of $5,277,287 including an accumulated deficit of $133,849,089. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, cash flows used in operating activities were $4,705,607. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional capital financing. Through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company has been primarily financed through the proceeds from the sale of preferred stock and Common Stock. In the event the Company does not complete a future offering of its preferred stock or Common Stock, the Company expects to seek additional funding through private equity or debt financings. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company would be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which would have a material, adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Nasdaq Deficiency
On March 17, 2025, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock for the 30 consecutive business days between January 30, 2025, to March 14, 2025, the Company did not meet the minimum bid price of $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The letter also indicated that the Company will be provided with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until September 15, 2025 (the “Compliance Period”), in which to regain compliance pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A).
In order to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement, the Company’s Common Stock must maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days during the Compliance Period. In the event the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the Compliance Period, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar days to regain compliance. There can be no assurance that the Company will be eligible for the additional 180 calendar day compliance period, if applicable, or that the Nasdaq staff would grant the Company’s request for continued listing subsequent to any delisting notification. In the event of such a notification, the Company may appeal the Nasdaq staff’s determination to delist its securities.
Financial Operations Overview
We will not generate revenue from product sales unless and until we successfully complete clinical development, obtain regulatory approval for, and successfully commercialize our Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD product candidates. The lengthy process of securing marketing approvals for new drugs requires the expenditure of substantial resources. Any significant delay or failure to obtain regulatory approvals would materially adversely affect our product candidate’s development efforts and our business overall. In addition, if we obtain regulatory approval for Isomyosamine and/or Supera-CBD, we expect to incur significant expenses related to developing our commercialization capability to support product sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution activities.
We anticipate that our expenses will increase significantly as we:
| ● | advance the development of our Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD; | |
| ● | initiate and continue research and preclinical and clinical development of potential new product candidates; | |
| ● | maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property as it pertains to Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD; | |
| ● | expand our infrastructure and facilities to accommodate our growing employee base and ongoing development activities; | |
| ● | establish agreements with contract research organizations, or CROs, and third-party contract manufacturing organizations, or CMOs, in connection with our Supera-CBD preclinical studies, Isomyosamine ongoing and planned clinical trials, Supera-CBD clinical trials and the development of our manufacturing capabilities for Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD; | |
| ● | develop the large-scale manufacturing processes and capabilities for the commercialization of our Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD drug products; | |
| ● | seek marketing approvals for our Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD product candidates that successfully complete clinical trials and | |
| ● | establish a sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD should we obtain marketing approval |
As a result of these anticipated expenditures, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy.
| 31 |
Components of our Results of Operations
Revenue
We have not generated any revenue from product sales and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products in the near future. If our research and development efforts with Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD are successful, we may generate revenue from product sales or through license agreements with third parties.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses are broken into several components, including research and development and general and administrative costs.
We expect operating expenses to increase as we progress through the various clinical trials in the development of Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD.
Research and Development
Our research and development expenses primarily consist of costs associated with the development of Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD. These costs include, but are not limited to:
| ● | Contractual agreements with third parties including contract research organizations, preclinical activities and clinical trials; | |
| ● | Outside consultants including fees and expenses; | |
| ● | Laboratory supplies and equipment; | |
| ● | Regulatory compliance; and | |
| ● | Patent application and maintenance costs to protect our intellectual property. |
None of our two employees are principally involved in research and development activities for either Isomyosamine or Supera-CBD. Their salaries, wages and benefits are captured as a component of research and development but not allocated to specific projects.
We utilize third party contractors and consultants with expertise in specific research or development activities to perform work under the supervision of our researchers. We believe this allows us to control costs and to progress through the development cycle and to utilize our staff more efficiently.
It is difficult to project with absolute accuracy the duration or final cost of the development of Isomyosamine and Super-CBD or if revenue will be generated from the commercialization of these components. The process of achieving regulatory approval is very costly and time consuming. A few of the many factors that contribute to costs of duration include:
| ● | Size and scope of pre-clinical trials; | |
| ● | The phases of clinical development and the stage of our product candidates in the cycle; | |
| ● | Per subject trial costs; | |
| ● | The number of sites required for the trials and the availability of appropriate sites to perform the trials; | |
| ● | The time that is required to enroll the appropriate number of trial participants; and | |
| ● | The time required to achieve the approval of regulatory agencies. |
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries, wages and benefits for our employees in the executive, legal and accounting functions and third-party costs for legal, accounting, insurance, investor relations, stock market and board expenses.
Although treated as components of general and administrative expenses, we have chosen to disclose the following significant items separately:
Stock Based Compensation
Stock based compensation includes the fair market value, as determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, of stock options issued to key staff and consultants.
| 32 |
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income (expense), net consists of interest and dividends earned on our cash, cash equivalents, and investments, gains on the sale marketable securities, losses on equity investments, gains on the forgiveness of debt and an uninsured casualty loss.

General and Administrative Expenses
The table below summarizes our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:
| For the Three Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||
| Description | 2025 | 2024 | ||||||
| Personnel Costs | $ | 110,479 | $ | 207,197 | ||||
| Professional Service Costs | 284,836 | 306,622 | ||||||
| Stock Market & Investor Relations Costs | 227,870 | 82,829 | ||||||
| Other Administrative Costs | 271,112 | 423,664 | ||||||
| Total Administrative Expense | $ | 894,297 | $ | 1,020,312 | ||||
Personnel costs decreased $99,891 during the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company continued to realize the impact of the additional staff reductions that occurred between April and August 2024.
Professional services costs decreased $21,786 during the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. These costs included legal and accounting and specialized consulting services regularly incurred in the normal course of business. The decrease is primarily related to a decrease in fees for specialized accounting services related to the fair market valuations for the various convertible preferred stock series.
Stock market and investor relations costs increased $145,041 during the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. These costs include the annual Nasdaq listing fees, activities related to keeping the shareholder base informed through press releases, presentations and other communication efforts and the costs of annual stockholder meetings. The increase is primarily due to the costs associated with the 2025 annual stockholder meeting.
Other administrative expenses decreased $152,552 during the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. These costs include board of director expenses, business insurance, corporate travel and other general operating expenses. We incurred decreases in costs associated with board of director fees, business insurance, and the majority of the other expenses in this category.

Series F Common Stock Warrants
Pursuant to the February 2023 Offering, the Company issued to investors the Series F Warrants to purchase 4,716,904 shares of Common Stock, with an initial exercise price of $3.18 per share (subject to adjustment), for a period of five years from the date of issuance. The Series F Exercise Price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants are subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment, on a “full ratchet” basis, in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series F Exercise Price (subject to certain exceptions). Upon any such price-based adjustment to the exercise price, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants will be increased proportionately. As of June 30 2025, the Series F Exercise Price was equal to $0.1832 per share and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants was equal to 81,877,728 shares pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series F Warrants.

The modification resulted in the reclassification of the Series F Warrants to be considered equity classified as they were no longer in the scope of ASC 815. In accordance with ASC 815-40, the Company remeasured the Series F Warrant liabilities at $7,961,000 fair value as of March 31, 2024, the effective date of the modification, and recognized the $7,094,000 loss on the change in fair value and reclassified the $7,961,000 fair value of the Series F Warrants to additional paid-in capital as of March 31, 2024.

Each Purchase Agreement requires the Company to hold a meeting of its stockholders no later than August 1, 2024, to seek approval (the “Stockholder Approval”) (i) under Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5635(d) for the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at prices below the “Minimum Price” (as defined in Rule 5635 of the Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market) on the date of the applicable Purchase Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Series F-1 Preferred Shares and Series G Preferred Shares, as applicable, and the Series G Warrants and Series F-1 Warrants, as applicable, and (ii) to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares of Common Stock is sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount (as defined in the Purchase Agreements) pursuant to the terms of each Purchase Agreement. The Company received the Nasdaq Stockholder Approval at a special meeting of stockholders held on July 24, 2024.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates associated with the determinations of the fair-market value of the preferred stock, stock-based compensation, and the impairment analysis of intangibles.

Our financial position, results of operations and cash flows are impacted by the accounting policies we have adopted. In order to get a full understanding of our financial statements, one must have a clear understanding of the accounting policies employed. A summary of our critical accounting policies is presented within the notes to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, costs and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. These items are monitored and analyzed by us for changes in facts and circumstances, and material changes in these estimates could occur in the future. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and on 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 materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Our critical accounting estimates have not changed materially from those previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on April 11, 2025.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective 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 SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time we are a party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves and our customers by determining the scope, enforceability, and validity of third-party proprietary rights or to establish our proprietary rights. For a description of certain legal proceedings, please read Note 6 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, which information is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following description of risk factors includes any material changes to, and supersedes the description of, risk factors associated with our business, financial condition and results of operations previously disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2024 on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on April 11, 2025. Our business, financial condition and operating results can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause our actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition and operating results. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and stock price.
The following discussion of risk factors contains forward-looking statements. These risk factors may be important to understanding other statements in this Form 10-Q. The following information should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” and Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Form 10-Q.
We may not be able to adequately protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, which could harm our competitive position.
Our success and future revenue growth will depend, in part, on our ability to protect our intellectual property. We will primarily rely on patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws, as well as nondisclosure agreements and other methods, to protect our proprietary technologies or processes. It is possible that competitors or other unauthorized third parties may obtain, copy, use or disclose proprietary technologies and processes, despite efforts by the us to protect our proprietary technologies and processes. While we hold rights in several patents, there can be no assurances that any additional patents will be issued, or additional rights will be granted, to us. Even if new patents are issued, the claims allowed may not be sufficiently broad to adequately protect our technology and processes. Our competitors may also be able to develop similar technology independently or design around the patents to which we have rights.
Currently, the Company has 19 issued U.S. patents, 70 foreign patents, and 4 foreign patent applications pending in such jurisdictions as Canada, China, Isreal, and Japan, which if issued are expected to expire between 2036 and 2041. Although we expect to obtain additional patents and in-licenses in the future, there is no guarantee that we will be able to successfully obtain such patents or in-licenses in a timely manner or at all. Further, any of our rights to existing patents, and any future patents issued to us, may be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented. As such, any rights granted under these patents may not provide us with meaningful protection. Even if foreign patents are granted, effective enforcement in foreign countries may not be available. If our patents or rights to patents do not adequately protect our technology or processes, competitors may be able to offer products similar to our products.
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management has substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company’s cash used in operations was $4,740,006 leaving a cash balance of $207,553 and a marketable securities balance of 3,605,508 as of June 30, 2025. Because the Company does not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months from the date of this filing, management has substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company will need to raise additional capital to finance its losses and negative cash flows from operations and may continue to be dependent on additional capital raising as long as our products do not reach commercial profitability. There are no assurances that the Company would be able to raise additional capital on terms favorable to it. If the Company is unsuccessful in commercializing its products and raising capital, it will need to reduce activities, curtail or cease operations.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There were no unregistered sales of the Company’s equity securities during the three months ended June 30, 2025, other than those previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
There has been no default in the payment of principal, interest, sinking or purchase fund installment, or any other material default, with respect to any indebtedness of the Company.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
