NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS
Tevogen Bio Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is a clinical-stage specialty immunotherapy company harnessing the power of CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes to develop off-the-shelf, precision T cell therapies for the treatment of infectious diseases, cancers, and other disorders. The Company’s precision T cell technology, ExacTcell, is a set of processes and methodologies to develop, enrich, and expand single human leukocyte antigen-restricted CTL therapies with proactively selected, precisely defined targets. The Company has completed a Phase 1 proof-of-concept trial for the first clinical product of ExacTcell, TVGN 489, for the treatment of ambulatory, high-risk adult COVID-19 patients, and has other product candidates in its pipeline.
In addition, through the Company’s Tevogen.AI artificial intelligence (“AI”) initiative, it is focused on harnessing the potential of AI to expedite drug development, optimize laboratory processes and clinical trials, unravel complex biological data, improve patient outcomes, and pass on related savings to patients.
On February 14, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 28, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Semper Paratus Acquisition Corporation (“Semper Paratus”), Semper Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Semper Paratus (“Merger Sub”), SSVK Associates, LLC (the “Sponsor”), Tevogen Bio Inc (n/k/a Tevogen Bio Inc.) (“Tevogen Bio”), and Dr. Ryan Saadi, in his capacity as seller representative, Merger Sub merged with and into Tevogen Bio, with Tevogen Bio being the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of Semper Paratus (the “Merger” and together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”), and Semper Paratus was renamed Tevogen Bio Holdings Inc.
In connection with the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), the then-outstanding shares of common stock of Tevogen Bio were converted into shares of the common stock of the Company at an exchange ratio of approximately shares of Company common stock for each share of Tevogen Bio common stock (the “Exchange Ratio”). See Note 4 for more information on the Business Combination.
As discussed in Note 4, the Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under which the historical financial statements of the Company prior to the Merger are those of Tevogen Bio. All information related to the common stock of Tevogen Bio prior to the Closing and presented in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Exchange Ratio.
Following
the Merger, the former equity holders and holders of convertible promissory notes of Tevogen Bio held

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management regularly evaluates different strategies to obtain funding for operations for subsequent periods. These strategies may include but are not limited to private placements of securities, licensing and/or marketing arrangements, partnerships with other pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies, and public offerings of securities. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms and the Company may not be able to enter into strategic alliances or other arrangements on favorable terms. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Company’s stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient funding, the Company could be required to delay, reduce or eliminate research and development programs, product portfolio expansion, or future commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business prospects.
Operations since inception have consisted primarily of organizing the Company, securing financing, developing licensed technologies, performing research, conducting pre-clinical studies and a clinical trial, pursuing related business opportunities, and pursuing and completing the Business Combination. The Company is subject to risks associated with any specialty biotechnology company that requires considerable expenditures for research and development. The Company’s research and development and other projects may not be successful, products developed may not obtain necessary regulatory approval, and any approved product may not be commercially viable. In addition, the Company operates in an environment of rapid technological change and is largely dependent on the services of its employees and consultants.
NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The summary of significant accounting policies in Note 3 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 2, 2025 have not materially changed, except as reflected in the following:
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations of the Company have been included.
Segment Reporting
Operating
segments are defined as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is both available and regularly reviewed by
its chief operating decision maker or decision-making group. The Company views its operations and manages its business in
Fair Value Measurements
Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
| Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| Level 2 | Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar, but not identical, assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; |
| Level 3 | Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data available and which require the Company to develop its own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. |
| 7 |
TEVOGEN BIO HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Financial instruments recognized at historical amounts in the balance sheets consist of accounts payable and notes payable. The Company believes that the carrying value of accounts payable and notes payable approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
The Company’s recurring fair value measurements consist of the convertible promissory notes prior to the Merger, for which the Company elected the fair value option to reduce accounting complexity, and private warrants after the Merger. Such fair value measurements are Level 3 inputs. The following table provides a roll-forward of the aggregate fair values of the Company’s convertible promissory notes.

There were no transfers between levels during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
The
Company used the probability weighted expected return method valuation methodology to determine the fair value of the convertible promissory
notes prior to the Merger. Significant assumptions and ranges used in determining the fair value of convertible promissory notes prior
to the Merger include volatility (

The Company computes basic net income (loss) per share by dividing net loss by the weighted-average common stock outstanding during the period. The Company determined that each outstanding share of preferred stock and restricted common stock would participate in earnings available to common stockholders but would not participate in losses. The Company computes diluted net income (loss) per share by dividing the net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period, plus the potential dilutive effects, if any, of potentially dilutive securities. Given the Company’s net loss, basic and diluted net loss per share are the same for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2025.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, which enhances reportable segment disclosures by requiring disclosures such as significant segment expenses. The main provisions of this update require companies to disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses, segment profit and loss, and other segments items that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). This update also requires companies to disclose the title and position of the CODM and to explain how the CODM uses the reported segment measures in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The update also requires companies with a single reportable segment to provide all required segment reporting disclosures. This new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2024 for annual reporting and interim periods beginning in 2025.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which modifies the disclosure requirements for income taxes. This update requires disclosure of tabular statutory to effective rate reconciliation in both percentages and dollars, additional disaggregated rate reconciliation categories and disaggregation of both income taxes paid and income tax expense by jurisdiction. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We expect this update to only impact our disclosures with no impact to our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
In
November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures,
(Subtopic 220-40) (“ASU 2024-03”), which was clarified in January 2025 with ASU 2025-01 (collectively, “ASU 2025-01
and 2024-03”). ASU 2025-01 and 2024-03 improves disclosures regarding the types of expenses included in commonly presented expense
captions, including disaggregating the amounts of employee compensation, depreciation and amortization included within each income statement
expense caption. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its unaudited consolidated financial
statements and disclosures.

NOTE 4. BUSINESS COMBINATION
On
the Closing Date, the Company completed the Business Combination described in Note 1. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization
under GAAP because Tevogen Bio was determined to be the accounting acquirer based upon the terms of the Merger and other factors, including
that following the Merger, former Tevogen Bio (i) equity holders and holders of convertible promissory notes owned approximately

Former holders of Tevogen Bio common stock and the Sponsor are eligible to receive up to an aggregate of shares of common stock (“Earnout Shares”) if the volume-weighted average price (the “VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock reaches specified threshold levels during the three-year period commencing on the Closing Date. Refer to Note 5, Earnout Shares, for further details of the earnout arrangement.
In

Following the Closing, former holders of Tevogen Bio common stock may receive up to Earnout Shares in tranches of , , and shares of common stock per tranche, respectively. The first, second, and third tranches are issuable if the VWAP per share of the Company’s common stock is greater or equal to $, $, and $, respectively, over any twenty trading days within any thirty consecutive day trading period during the three-year period after the Closing.

TEVOGEN BIO HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Sponsor received the right to Earnout Shares with the same terms above, except that each of the Sponsor’s three earnout tranches are for shares of common stock, for an aggregate of shares of common stock across the entire Sponsor earnout. The Earnout Shares are a form of dividend for holders of Tevogen Bio common stock, and the Earnout Shares earnable by the Sponsor are treated as contingent consideration in a reverse recapitalization. In accordance with ASC 815, the Earnout Shares were considered to be indexed to the Company’s common stock and are classified within permanent equity.
NOTE 6. ACCRUED EXPENSES AND OTHER LIABILITIES
Accrued expenses and other liabilities consisted of the following:

NOTE 7. DEBT
On February 14, 2024, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, previously issued promissory notes and accrued interest were automatically converted into an aggregate of shares of common stock. These debt obligations were retired upon conversion.
Loan Agreement
In
June 2024, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with The Patel Family, LLP (the “Patel
Family”), a related party of the Company, providing for an unsecured line of credit facility (the “Facility”) for term
loans of up to an initial total of $
The
Loan Agreement includes a purchase option whereby the Patel Family has the option to purchase up to $ of shares of common stock
at a purchase price equal to % of the Trailing VWAP per share (the “$ million Purchase Option”). The $ million Purchase
Option only becomes exercisable once Trailing VWAP reaches $ per share. The $

The Loan Agreement also includes a purchase option (the “Additional Amount Purchase Option”) that is identical to the $ million Purchase Option, except that the option is exercisable for an amount up to the then-remaining undrawn term loan amount under the Loan Agreement at the time Trailing VWAP reaches $ per share. The Additional Amount Purchase Option was determined to be an embedded derivative within the written loan commitment that requires bifurcation under ASC 815, and thus is carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded to change in fair value of written call option derivatives liabilities within the unaudited consolidated statements of operations and unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows.

The
Loan Agreement is a written loan commitment that is not eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825, Financial Instruments.
However, management intends to elect the fair value option for future draws under this commitment, and therefore has expensed all issuance

As
a result of the Merger, the Company assumed notes payable held by Polar Multi-Strategy Master Fund (“Polar”) for which the
proceeds were to be used for working capital purposes by Semper Paratus with an outstanding balance of $
In connection with the Closing, the Company adopted the Tevogen Bio Holdings Inc. 2024 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”) and no longer grants awards pursuant to the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). Each restricted stock unit (“RSU”) award granted under the 2020 Plan that was outstanding and unvested as of the Closing Date was automatically canceled and converted into an award under the 2024 Plan with respect to the common stock of the Company (the “Rollover RSUs”). Such Rollover RSUs remain subject to the same terms and conditions as set forth under the applicable award agreement prior to the Closing.
In addition to covering the Rollover RSUs, under the 2024 Plan, the Company is authorized to grant awards up to an aggregate shares of common stock. The 2024 Plan provides for the grant of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted common stock (“Restricted Stock”), RSUs, and other equity-based awards. As of June 30, 2025, awards for shares remained available to be granted under the 2024 Plan.
The Company has issued RSUs that are subject to either service-based vesting conditions or service-based and performance-based vesting conditions. Compensation expense for service-based RSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. Compensation expense for service-based and performance-based RSUs (“Performance-Based RSUs”) is recognized when the performance condition, which is based on a liquidity event condition being satisfied, is deemed probable of achievement.
On the Closing Date, the Company issued an aggregate of RSUs under the 2024 Plan to Dr. Saadi (the “Special RSU Award”). Such RSUs immediately converted into shares of Restricted Stock, the restrictions on which lapse in four equal annual installments beginning on February 14, 2031 (“Special RSU Vesting Period”). Pursuant to the terms of the Special RSU Award, Dr. Saadi will be entitled to vote the Restricted Stock, but the shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise encumbered, subject to forfeit. Dr. Saadi will automatically forfeit all unvested Restricted Stock in the event he departs the Company. The fair value per share for the Special RSU Award was determined to be $ per share, equivalent to the Company’s stock price on the Closing Date, resulting in a total grant date fair value of $. In accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), the Company will recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis from the Closing Date until the completion of the Special RSU Vesting Period.
On June 27, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of shares of Restricted Stock under the 2024 Plan to the Company’s executive officers, including a grant of shares of Restricted Stock to Dr. Saadi. The shares of Restricted Stock granted to Dr. Saadi will vest in four equal annual installments beginning on June 27, 2032 and the shares of Restricted Stock granted to each other grantee will vest in three equal annual installments beginning on June 27, 2030 (the “RSA Vesting Period”), subject in each case to the applicable grantee’s continuous service with the Company through the vesting date, and provided that the shares will automatically vest in full in the event of termination due to death or disability. Pursuant to the terms of these awards, the Company’s executive officers are entitled to vote the Restricted Stock, but the shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise encumbered, subject to automatic forfeit. The Company’s executive officers will automatically forfeit all unvested Restricted Stock in the event they depart the Company for any reason, unless termination of their service triggers accelerated vesting pursuant to the terms of the applicable award agreement or the 2024 Plan. The fair value per share for these awards was determined to be $ per share, equivalent to the Company’s stock price on the grant date, resulting in a total grant date fair value of $. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company will recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis from the grant date until the completion of the RSA Vesting Period.

The
Company operates in
The accounting policies for the Company’s single operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company’s single operating segment incurs expenses from the development of TVGN 489, which is designed to target various disease indications, and other product candidates being developed by the Company’s research and development department. The Company has not yet generated revenue in its operating history.
For the segment, the chief operating decision maker uses net loss, which is reported on the unaudited consolidated statements of operations as consolidated net income (loss), to allocate resources (including employees, property, and financial resources), predominantly during the annual budget and forecasting process. The chief operating decision maker also uses consolidated net loss, along with non-financial inputs and qualitative information, to evaluate the Company’s performance, establish compensation, monitor budget versus actual results, and decide the level of investment in the Company’s various research activities. The measure of segment assets is reported on the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as total consolidated assets.

Overview
We are a clinical-stage specialty immunotherapy company harnessing one of nature’s most powerful immunological weapons, CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (“CD8+ CTLs”), to develop off-the-shelf, precision T cell therapies for the treatment of infectious diseases, cancers, and other disorders, with the aim of addressing the significant unmet needs of large patient populations. We believe the full potential of T cell therapies remains largely untapped, and aspire to be the first biotechnology company offering commercially attractive, economically viable, and cost-effective personalized T cell therapies.
We believe our allogeneic, precision T cell technology, ExacTcellTM, has the potential to mainstream cell therapy with a new class of off-the-shelf T cell therapies with diverse applications across virology, oncology, and other areas. ExacTcell is a set of processes and methodologies to develop, enrich, and expand single human leukocyte antigen (“HLA”) restricted CTL therapies with proactively selected, precisely defined targets. We are focused on using ExacTcell to develop therapeutics that are intended to be infused in patients other than the original donor. ExacTcell is designed to maximize the immunologic specificity of our products in order to eliminate malignant and virally infected cells while allowing healthy cells to remain intact.
| 21 |
The first clinical product of ExacTcell, TVGN 489, is initially being developed to fill a critical gap in COVID-19 therapeutics for the immunocompromised and the high-risk elderly, with potential applications in both treatment and prevention of chronic lingering symptoms of the disease (“Long COVID”). We have completed a Phase 1 proof-of-concept clinical trial of TVGN 489 for the treatment of ambulatory, high-risk adult COVID-19 patients. No dose-limiting toxicities or significant treatment-related adverse events were observed in the treatment arm of the trial. Secondary endpoints showing a rapid reduction of viral load and that infusion of TVGN 489 did not prevent development of the patients’ own T cell-related (cellular) or antibody-related (humoral) anti-COVID-19 immunity were also met. None of the patients who participated in the trial reported progression of infection, reinfection, or the development of Long COVID during the six-month follow-up period.
In addition, through our Tevogen.AI artificial intelligence initiative, we are focused on harnessing the potential of AI to expedite drug development, optimize laboratory processes and clinical trials, unravel complex biological data, improve patient outcomes, and pass on related savings to patients.
On April 17, 2025, we entered into a Master Services and Facilities Agreement (the “MSFA”) with CD 8 Technology Services LLC (“CD8”). The MSFA establishes the general terms and conditions under which CD8 would provide us with access to specialized manufacturing facilities, including clean rooms and laboratories, as well as related operational services, to support the production of our cell therapy products. The MSFA provides that the specific details of these facilities and services, including scope of work, costs, and timelines, will be set out in one or more individual project work orders. CD8 is associated with Dr. Manmohan Patel, who beneficially owns more than 5% of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”).
Our commercial success depends in part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent and other protection for our products and methods, preserve the confidentiality of our trade secrets, operate without infringing, misappropriating, or otherwise violating the valid, enforceable proprietary rights of others, and prevent others from infringing, misappropriating, or otherwise violating our proprietary rights. We rely on a combination of patents, patent applications, trademarks, and trade secrets to establish and protect our intellectual property rights. Our ability to stop third parties from making, using, selling, offering to sell, or importing our products without the right to do so may depend on the extent to which we have rights under valid and enforceable patents, trademarks or trade secrets that cover these activities.
We continue to build our intellectual property portfolio and seek to protect our proprietary position by, among other things, filing patent applications. Our patent estate includes patents and patent applications with claims relating to our product candidates, methods of use, and methods of preparing the product candidates. To date, our U.S. intellectual property portfolio includes three U.S. patents relating to TVGN 489 for the treatment of COVID-19, nine pending U.S. patent applications, including two patent applications relating to the treatment of COVID-19, six relating to the treatment of other viruses or cancer, and one related to artificial intelligence-driven T cell target identification and receptor engagement, as well as thirteen ex-U.S. patent applications, including applications in Australia, Canada, Europe, Japan, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and the Patent Cooperation Treaty directed at viral specific T cells, methods of treating and preventing viral infections, methods for developing CD3+CD+ cells against multiple viral epitopes for the treatment of viral infections, and systems for predicting immunologically active peptides with machine learning models, which have anticipated expiration dates through December 16, 2044.
In the United States, our three issued utility patents, all of which will expire on December 9, 2040, are U.S. Patent No. 11,191,827 covering methods of treating COVID-19 infection using COVID-19 peptide specific CTLs; U.S. Patent No. 11,207,401 covering COVID-19 peptide-specific CTLs; and U.S. Patent No. 11,219,684 covering methods of manufacturing COVID-19 peptide specific CTLs. A pending utility patent application in the United States directed at viral specific T cells and methods of treating and preventing viral infections has an anticipated expiration of December 9, 2041. In addition, we own a registered trademark protection for “Tevogen Bio” (and design), and have applied for registered trademark protection for “ExacTcell” and “Tevogen AI” with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
We determine strategy for claim scope for our patent applications on a case-by-case basis, taking into account advice of counsel and our business model and needs. We file patents containing claims for protection of useful applications of our proprietary technologies and any product candidates, including new applications or uses we discover for existing technologies and product candidates, based on our assessment of their strategic value. We continuously reassess the number and type of patent applications, as well as our pending and issued patent claims, to ensure maximum coverage and value are obtained for our processes and compositions, given existing patent office rules and regulations.
| 22 |
As our patents were developed internally, historical expenditures related to their development were all expensed as incurred per U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We believe these patents have significant value as the basis of our product pipeline. Our continued investment in our pipeline highlights our belief in future commercial viability of these products.

(“Tevogen Bio”), and Dr. Ryan Saadi, in his capacity as seller representative, Merger Sub merged with and into Tevogen Bio, with Tevogen Bio being the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Semper Paratus (the “Merger,” and together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”), and Semper Paratus was renamed Tevogen Bio Holdings Inc. (the “Closing”). See Note 4 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Report for additional information regarding the net assets acquired through the Merger. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under GAAP because the Company was determined to be the accounting acquirer.
Since commencing operations in June 2020, we have devoted substantially all our efforts and financial resources to establishing corporate governance, recruiting essential staff, establishing research and development capability including securing laboratory space and equipment, conducting scientific research, developing Tevogen.AI, securing intellectual property rights to our inventions related to our product candidates, ExacTcell, and Tevogen.AI, carrying out drug discovery including pre-clinical studies and our Phase 1 clinical trial of TVGN 489, raising capital, and pursuing the Business Combination.
To date, we have not generated any revenue. Our net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $5.4 million and $9.7 million, respectively. Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to $3.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Our net loss and net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $15.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to $10.5 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense. As of June 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $129.2 million and cash of $0.7 million.
On February 14, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with The Patel Family, LLP (the “Patel Family”) pursuant to which the Patel Family purchased 500 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2.0 million. On March 27, 2024, we entered into an Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement with the Patel Family pursuant to which we amended and restated the original agreement and the Patel Family agreed to purchase 600 shares of our Series A-1 Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million, of which $3.0 million has been received through August 14, 2025.
As described in more detail in “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Funding Requirements” below, on June 6, 2024, we entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with the Patel Family providing for (i) an unsecured line of credit facility (the “Facility”), pursuant to which the Patel Family agreed to lend us up to an initial amount of $36.0 million (the “Maximum Loan Amount”) of term loans in $1.0 million increments on a monthly basis, over a draw period of thirty-six months, and (ii) a contingent option for the Patel Family to purchase at least $14.0 million of our Common Stock in a future private placement (the “Optional PIPE”). The Loan Agreement also contains a contingent option for the Patel Family to purchase at least $14.0 million of our Common Stock, plus up to the then-remaining available amount under the Facility, in a future private placement if the ten-day trailing volume weighted average price per share of the Common Stock (the “Trailing VWAP”) reaches $10.00 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, we also issued to the Patel Family 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock as a commitment fee (the “Commitment Shares”), subject to forfeiture by the Patel Family of the Commitment Shares or an equal number of shares of Common Stock in the event the Patel Family fails to (i) make a deposit under the Facility when due or (ii) pay the purchase price for the Optional PIPE within 30 days after the Threshold Price Notice Date (as defined in the Loan Agreement) in the event we have satisfied all applicable closing conditions.
In January 2025, we received a grant of $2.0 million from KRHP LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (“KRHP”), to further our development of off-the-shelf, genetically unmodified precision T cell therapeutics to treat infectious diseases and cancers. In August 2025, we received a grant of $1.0 million from KRHP to advance Tevogen.AI. KRHP is affiliated with the Patel Family. KRHP also committed to provide an additional $7.0 million of grant funding to us to be used towards our ongoing operational expenses. In addition, in June 2025, we received a capital contribution of $500,000 from Ryan Saadi, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
As described in more detail in “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Sources of Liquidity” below, on July 3, 2025, we entered into a Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (the “Agent”), pursuant to which we may issue and sell from time to time up to $50,000,000 of shares of Common Stock through the Agent as our sales agent pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed on June 20, 2025, and the prospectus supplement dated July 3, 2025.
| 23 |
Based on cash on hand as of the date of this Report of approximately $0.7 million, amounts received subsequent to June 30, 2025 from the Sales Agreement and KRHP grant, combined with the amounts available under our Loan Agreement, and $7.0 million of additional committed grant funding from KRHP, we have concluded that we have sufficient cash to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months from the issuance date of our unaudited consolidated financial statements.
We do not expect to generate product revenue unless and until we obtain marketing approval or other authorization for and successfully commercialize TVGN 489 or another product candidate. We expect to incur expenses related to expanding our research and development capability, building our manufacturing infrastructure including through acquisitions, and developing our commercialization organization, including reimbursement, marketing, managed market, and distribution functions, and training and deploying a specialty medical science liaison team.
Components of our Results of Operations
Revenue
To date, we have not generated any revenue, and we do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products unless and until we obtain marketing approval or other authorization for and commercialize TVGN 489 or another product candidate.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for our research activities, including staffing, discovery efforts, pre-clinical studies, and clinical development of TVGN 489, and pre-clinical studies of other product candidates, and include:
| ● | acquisition of supplies and equipment and leasing lab spaces; | |
| ● | expenses incurred to conduct pre-clinical studies, including those required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to obtain the regulatory approval necessary to conduct our TVGN 489 clinical trial; | |
| ● | salaries, benefits, and other related costs for personnel engaged in research and development functions; | |
| ● | costs of funding research performed by third parties, including pursuant to agreements with contract research organizations (“CROs”), and investigative site costs to conduct our pre-clinical studies and clinical trials; | |
| ● | manufacturing costs, including expenses incurred under agreements with contract manufacturing organizations (“CMOs”), including manufacturing scale-up expenses, and the cost of acquiring and manufacturing pre-clinical study and clinical trial materials; | |
| ● | costs of outside consultants, including their fees, stock-based compensation, and related travel expenses; | |
| ● | costs of laboratory supplies and acquiring materials for pre-clinical studies and clinical trials; and | |
| ● | facility-related expenses, which include direct depreciation costs of equipment and expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities and other operating costs. |
Research and development activities are central to the biotechnology business model. Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally have higher development costs than those in earlier stages, primarily due to the increased study sizes, which also leads generally to longer patient enrollment times in later-stage clinical trials. We expect our research and development expenses to increase over the next several years as we increase manufacturing, shipping, and storage of clinical batches required for clinical trials, personnel costs, including stock-based compensation, conduct planned clinical trials for TVGN 489 and other clinical and pre-clinical activities for other product candidates, and prepare regulatory filings for any of our product candidates.
| 24 |
The successful development of our current or future product candidates is highly uncertain. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate or know the nature, timing, and costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the development of any product candidates. The success of TVGN 489 and our other product candidates will depend on several factors, including the following:
| ● | with respect to products other than TVGN 489, successfully completing pre-clinical studies; | |
| ● | successfully initiating future clinical trials; | |
| ● | successfully enrolling patients in and completing clinical trials; | |
| ● | applying for and receiving marketing approvals from applicable regulatory authorities; | |
| ● | obtaining and maintaining intellectual property protection and regulatory exclusivity for TVGN 489 and any other product candidates we are developing or may develop in the future and enforcing, defending, and protecting these rights; | |
| ● | making arrangements with third-party manufacturers, or establishing adequate commercial manufacturing capabilities; | |
| ● | establishing sales, marketing, and distribution capabilities and launching sales of our products, if and when approved, whether alone or in collaboration with others; | |
| ● | market adoption of TVGN 489 and any other product candidates, if and when approved, by patients and the medical community; | |
| ● | competing effectively with potential therapeutic alternatives in our target disease areas; and | |
| ● | adequate reimbursement by private and public payors including health technology appraisal entities in non-U.S. countries. |
A change in the outcome of any of these variables concerning the development, manufacturing, or commercialization activities of a product candidate could result in a significant change in the costs and timing associated with the development of that product candidate. For example, if we are required to conduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidates beyond those that we currently contemplate, if we are unable to successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidates or other testing, if the results of these trials or tests are not positive or are only modestly positive, if there are safety concerns, or if we determine that the observed safety or efficacy profile would not be competitive in the marketplace, we could be required to expend significant additional financial resources and time on the completion of clinical development. We anticipate that product commercialization may take several years, and we expect to spend a significant amount in development costs.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel expenses, which include salaries, benefits, and stock-based long term incentive compensation for employees. These expenses also encompass corporate facility costs such as rent, utilities, depreciation, and maintenance, as well as costs not classified under research and development expenses. Legal fees pertaining to intellectual property and corporate matters, as well as fees for accounting and consulting services, are also included in general and administrative expenses.
We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future to support our continued research and development activities, potential commercialization efforts, and increased costs of operating as a public company. These increases will likely include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees to outside consultants, lawyers, accountants, and recruitment firms, among other expenses. Increased costs associated with being a public company will also include expenses related to services associated with maintaining compliance with SEC and Nasdaq requirements, insurance, and investor relations costs. If any of our current or future product candidates obtains marketing approval, we expect that we would incur significantly increased expenses associated with sales and marketing efforts.
| 25 |
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net consists primarily of interest on our former convertible promissory notes and Loan Agreement, partially offset by interest earned on bank deposits. (See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Sources of Liquidity” below.)
Merger Transaction Costs
Transaction costs we incurred in relation to the Business Combination were initially capitalized as deferred transaction costs up through the Closing Date, at which time such costs were charged to expense in our statements of operations less the amount of cash received in the Business Combination.
Change in Fair Value of Convertible Promissory Notes
U.S. accounting standards provide entities with an option to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. As a result of us electing this option, we recorded all convertible promissory notes at fair value with changes in fair value reported in our statements of operations at each balance sheet date through the settlement of the convertible promissory notes in connection with the Closing, at which time the convertible promissory notes were converted into our Common Stock.
Loss on Issuance of Commitment Shares
Our other expenses consist of losses on the issuance of the Commitment Shares for the period ended June 30, 2024 associated with the Loan Agreement. Since we intend to elect the fair value option for future draws under the Loan Agreement, we expense all issuance costs associated with the Loan Agreement, which are comprised of the fair value of the Commitment Shares as well as the issuance date fair value of the $14 million Purchase Option and Additional Amount Purchase Option. For more information about the Loan Agreement, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Funding Requirements” below.
Income Tax Provision
Since inception, we have incurred significant net losses. We have provided a valuation allowance against the full amount of our net deferred tax assets since, in the opinion of our management, based upon our historical and anticipated future losses, it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized.
Our utilization of our NOLs may be subject to a substantial annual limitation in the event of certain cumulative changes in the ownership interest of significant stockholders over a three-year period in excess of 50%, as defined under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, respectively, as well as similar state provisions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
As of June 30, 2025 we had $0.7 million in cash, as compared to $1.3 million in cash as of December 31, 2024. To date, we have not yet commercialized any products or generated any revenue from product sales and have financed our operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of convertible promissory notes and preferred stock, funds drawn on the Loan Agreement, and grant funding. Since January 2021, we have raised aggregate gross proceeds of $24.0 million from the sale of convertible promissory notes, $2.0 million from the sale of our Series A Preferred Stock, $3.0 million from deposits related to the future sale of our Series A-1 Preferred Stock, and $6.0 million from the sale of our Series C Preferred Stock. In June 2024, we entered into the Loan Agreement, which provided up to $36.0 million of term loans that can be drawn in $1.0 million increments each month over thirty-six months, as described below. As of June 30, 2025, we had drawn $4.4 million with a remaining $24.0 million available for future financing over the remaining 24 months of the draw period. In January and August 2025, we received a grant of $2.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and have a remaining commitment of a grant of $7.0 million from KRHP. In addition, in June 2025, we received a capital contribution of $500,000 from Dr. Ryan Saadi, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
On July 3, 2025, we entered into the Sales Agreement, pursuant to which we may issue and sell from time to time up to $50,000,000 of shares of Common Stock through the Agent as our sales agent. Sales of our Common Stock through the Agent, if any, will be made by any method that is deemed to be an “at-the-market” equity offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed on June 20, 2025, and the prospectus supplement dated July 3, 2025. Each time we wish to issue and sell Common Stock under the Sales Agreement, we will provide a placement notice to the Agent containing the parameters in accordance with which shares are to be sold, including, but not limited to, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued, the time period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock that may be sold in any one trading day, and any minimum price below which sales may not be made. The Agent will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell the Common Stock from time to time, based upon our instructions, including any price, time or size limits we may impose pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement. We are not obligated to make any sales of Common Stock under the Sales Agreement and may terminate the Sales Agreement at any time upon written notice. We will pay the Agent a commission on the gross proceeds.
Between July 3, 2025 and August 13, 2025, the Company sold an aggregate of approximately 2.3 million shares of common stock under the Sales Agreement at a weighted average price per share of $1.15, resulting in gross proceeds of $2.60 million. After deducting total expenses of approximately $70,000, including commission to the Agent of approximately $65,000, net proceeds to the Company were $2.53 million.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we used $6.5 million of net cash in operating activities. Cash used in operating activities reflected our net loss of $15.8 million offset by $9.3 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense, depreciation expense, and the net change in our operating assets and liabilities attributable to the timing of our payments to our vendors for research and development activities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we used $5.1 million of net cash in operating activities. Cash used in operating activities reflected our net income of $1.6 million and a $1.9 million net change in our operating assets and liabilities attributable to the timing of our payments to our vendors for research and development activities, offset by $8.6 million of non-cash charges related to the change in the fair value of the convertible promissory notes, stock-based compensation expense, Merger transaction costs, loss on the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock, loss on issuance of the Commitment Shares, depreciation expense, reductions in the operating right of use assets, and non-cash interest on the convertible promissory notes.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we did not have any cash flows from investing activities.
| 30 |
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we received $5.9 million of net cash from financing activities attributable to $3.4 million in draws on the Loan Agreement, $2.0 million attributable to the KRHP grant, and $500,000 in capital contributions from Dr. Saadi.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we received $5.2 million of net cash from financing activities attributable to $2.0 million of proceeds from the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock, $3.0 million of non-refundable prepaid proceeds towards the anticipated issuance of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, and $0.2 million of cash in connection with the Merger.
Funding Requirements
Our primary sources of funds to meet our near-term liquidity and capital requirements include cash on hand, including the funding we have received from the sale of our Series A and Series C Preferred Stock and the funding we expect to receive from the sale of our Series A-1 Preferred Stock, our access to an unsecured line of credit (limited to a $1.0 million monthly draw) under the Loan Agreement described below, the remaining $7.0 million of grant funding that KRHP has committed to provide to be used towards the Company’s ongoing operational expenses, and our ability to conduct offerings of our common stock under the Sales Agreement. On February 14, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Patel Family pursuant to which the Patel Family agreed to purchase shares of our Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $8.0 million. On March 27, 2024, we entered into an agreement pursuant to which that amount was reduced to $2.0 million and the Patel Family agreed to purchase shares of our Series A-1 Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million. We have not yet received $3.0 million of the $6.0 million purchase price for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock. Even if we receive such proceeds, we will still need additional capital to fully implement our business, operating, and development plans. On August 21, 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Patel Family pursuant to which the Patel Family agreed to purchase shares of our Series C Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million.
On June 6, 2024, we entered into the Loan Agreement, pursuant to which the Patel Family agreed to provide to us up to the Maximum Loan Amount of $36.0 million under the Facility. The Facility permits us to borrow up to $1.0 million monthly in a single monthly draw over a period of up to three years. Draws accrue interest at a fixed annual rate of the lower of (i) the daily secured overnight financing rate, measured on the date we receive the draw (the “Deposit Date”), plus 2.00% and (ii) 7.00%, accruing quarterly beginning on the Deposit Date and payable quarterly beginning on the three-month anniversary of the Deposit Date. Interest will be payable in shares of Common Stock with an effective purchase price of $1.50 per share, and each draw will mature 48 months after the Deposit Date. Prepayment will be permitted without penalty. We may repay or prepay any amount of outstanding principal balance under the Facility at our election in cash or in shares of Common Stock with an effective purchase price of the greater of $1.50 per share and the 10-day trailing volume weighted average price of the Common Stock (the “Trailing VWAP”) as of the trading day prior to payment, subject to certain requirements related to resale registration. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, we also agreed to provide the Patel Family an option to purchase $14.0 million of shares of our Common Stock plus an additional amount up to the total then-remaining available and undrawn portion of the Maximum Loan Amount (which amount would thereafter no longer be available under the Facility). The Optional PIPE would be priced at a 30% discount to the Trailing VWAP on the date such price first reaches at least $10.00 per share (the “Threshold Price Date”) and will be exercisable by the Patel Family by written notice within three business days after we have notified the Patel Family of the Threshold Price Date (the date of such notice, the “Threshold Price Notice Date”). Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, we issued to the Patel Family the Commitment Shares, subject to forfeiture by the Patel Family of the Commitment Shares or an equal number of shares of Common Stock in the event the Patel Family fails to (i) make a deposit under the Facility when due or (ii) pay the purchase price for the Optional PIPE within 30 days after the Threshold Price Notice Date in the event we have satisfied all applicable closing conditions. There is no assurance as to the amount of proceeds we will ultimately receive under the Loan Agreement. As of June 30, 2025, we have drawn an aggregate of $4.4 million under the Loan Agreement.
On July 3, 2025, the Company entered into the Sales Agreement, pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell from time to time up to $50,000,000 of shares of Common Stock through the Agent as the Company’s sales agent.
We expect to devote considerable financial resources to our ongoing and planned activities, particularly as we conduct our planned clinical trials of TVGN 489 and other product candidates.
| 31 |
Identifying potential product candidates and conducting pre-clinical testing and clinical trials is a time-consuming, expensive, and uncertain process that takes years to complete, and we may never generate the necessary data or results required to obtain marketing approval and achieve product sales. In addition, our product candidates, if approved, may not achieve commercial success.
We expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance our pre-clinical studies and clinical trials. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for TVGN 489 in any indication or for any other product candidate we are developing or develop in the future, we expect to incur commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution. Furthermore, we expect to continue to incur increased costs associated with operating as a public company. Accordingly, we will need additional funding to fully implement our business plans.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
| ● | the progress, costs, and results of our planned clinical trials of TVGN 489 and other planned and future clinical trials; | |
| ● | the scope, progress, costs, and results of our pre-clinical testing and clinical trials of TVGN 489 for additional combinations, targets, and indications; |
| ● | the number of and development requirements for additional indications for TVGN 489 or for any other product candidates; | |
| ● | our ability to scale up our manufacturing processes and capabilities to support clinical trials of TVGN 489 and other product candidates we are developing and may develop in the future; |
| ● | the costs, timing, and outcome of regulatory review of TVGN 489 and other product candidates we are developing and may develop in the future; |
| ● | potential changes in the regulatory environment and enforcement rules; |
| ● | our ability to establish and maintain strategic collaboration, licensing, or other arrangements and the financial terms of such arrangements; |
| ● | the costs and timing of future commercialization activities, including product manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution, for TVGN 489 and other product candidates we are developing and may develop in the future for which we may receive marketing approval; |
| ● | our ability to obtain and maintain acceptance of any approved products by patients, the medical community, and third-party payors; |
| ● | the amount and timing of revenue, if any, received from commercial sales of TVGN 489 and any other product candidates we are developing or develop in the future for which we receive marketing approval; |
| ● | potential changes in pharmaceutical pricing and reimbursement infrastructure; |
| ● | the availability of raw materials for use in production of our product candidates; and |
| ● | the costs and timing of preparing, filing, and prosecuting patent applications, maintaining and enforcing our intellectual property and proprietary rights, and defending any intellectual property-related claims. |
As of June 30, 2025, we had cash of $0.7 million. We believe that our cash balance, net proceeds pursuant to the Sales Agreement, a grant from KRHP received subsequent to June 30, 2025, combined with amounts available under the Loan Agreement, which allows us to draw down term loans of $1.0 million per month over the remaining 24 months of the draw period, and the remaining commitment for a $7,000,000 grant from KRHP will allow us to have adequate cash and financial resources, to operate for at least the next 12 months from the date of issuance of our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Report. The Company does not plan to initiate a clinical trial until additional funding is received.
| 32 |
We regularly evaluate different strategies to obtain funding for operations for subsequent periods. These strategies may include but are not limited to private placements of securities, licensing and/or marketing arrangements, partnerships with other pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies, and public offerings of securities. We may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms and may not be able to enter into strategic alliances or other arrangements on favorable terms. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of our stockholders. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funding, we could be required to delay, reduce or eliminate research and development programs, product portfolio expansion, or future commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect our business prospects.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments

The commitment amounts in the table above are associated with contracts that are enforceable and legally binding and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum services to be used, fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions, and the approximate timing of the actions under the contracts. Our contracts with CROs, CMOs, and other third parties for the manufacture of our product candidates and to support pre-clinical research studies and clinical testing are generally cancelable by us upon prior notice and do not contain any minimum purchase commitments. Payments due upon cancellation consisting only of payments for services provided or expenses incurred, including noncancelable obligations of our service providers, up to the date of cancellation are not included in the table above as the amount and timing of such payments are not known.
In May 2025, Tevogen Bio, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an amendment to the lease agreement between Tevogen Bio and the landlord of the Company’s facility in Warren, New Jersey to double the amount of leased space and extend the term of the lease until February 2033. The new facility allowed the Company to consolidate its office and laboratory operations to a single location and began operations in July 2025. The lease includes one-month of rent abatement. The lease of the Company’s former laboratory facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania expired in June 2025.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our unaudited consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to accrued expenses, the fair value of our Common Stock, the fair value of our convertible promissory notes, and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and various other factors that are believed to be 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, including those factors set out in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report. See also the section entitled “–Forward-Looking Statements” above.
Our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 3 to our unaudited financial statements contained in this Report and Note 3 to the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report. We did not identify any material policy changes related to critical accounting policies and estimates from what was previously disclosed in our Annual Report filed with the SEC on April 2, 2025, except as described in Note 3 to our unaudited financial statements contained in this Report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 3 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements found in this Report for a description of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to our financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information under this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this Report 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.
In the ordinary conduct of our business, we may be subject from time to time to legal proceedings. We currently have no material legal proceedings pending.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
An investment in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report, other information set forth in this Report, and the additional information in the other reports we file with the SEC. If any of the risks contained in those reports occur, our business, results of operation, financial condition, and liquidity could be harmed, the value of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
Except as described below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report.
We will require substantial additional financing to pursue our business objectives and to fund our operations, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. A failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development, commercialization efforts or other operations and affect our future viability as an ongoing business.
We expect to spend substantial amounts of cash to continue the preclinical and clinical development of our current and future immunotherapy programs, to fund our Tevogen.AI artificial intelligence initiative, and to pursue other potential business objectives. If we receive marketing approval for any product candidates, including TVGN 489, we will require significant additional amounts of cash in order to launch and commercialize such product candidates. In addition, other unanticipated costs may arise. Because the designs and outcomes of our planned and anticipated clinical trials are highly uncertain, we cannot reasonably estimate the actual amounts necessary to successfully complete the development of and commercialize any product candidate we develop.
Our future capital requirements depend on many factors, including:
| ● | the scope, progress, timing, results, and costs of researching and developing TVGN 489 and our other product candidates, including product candidates developed with our ExacTcell technology, and of conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials; |
| ● | the timing of, and the costs involved in, obtaining marketing approval for TVGN 489 and any future product candidates we develop, if clinical trials are successful; |
| ● | the costs of manufacturing TVGN 489 and any future product candidates for preclinical studies and clinical trials and in preparation for marketing approval and commercialization; |
| ● | the costs of commercialization activities, including marketing, sales, and distribution costs, for TVGN 489 and any future product candidates we develop if any of these product candidates are approved for sale; |
| ● | our ability to establish and maintain strategic collaborations, licensing, or other arrangements on favorable terms, if at all; |
| 35 |
| ● | the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, expanding, defending, and enforcing patent claims, including litigation costs and the outcome of any such litigation; |
| ● | the timing, receipt, and amount of sales of, or royalties on, our future products, if any; and |
| ● | the emergence of competing therapies and other developments in the markets we intend to address. |
Until we can generate sufficient product and royalty revenue to finance our cash requirements, which we may never do, we expect to finance our future cash needs through a combination of public or private equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, and licensing arrangements.
As a result of our cash balance, as well as our history of operating losses and negative cash flows from operation combined with our anticipated use of cash to, among other things, fund the preclinical and clinical development of our products, identify and develop new product candidates, and seek approval for TVGN 489 and our other product candidates and any other product candidates we develop, we will require substantial additional financing to pursue our business objectives and fund our operations. Our future viability as an ongoing business is dependent on our ability to generate cash from operating activities or to raise additional capital to finance our operations.
As reflected in our balance sheets, we have significant accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities. Proceeds from any capital raising transactions may be used to reduce our accounts payable accrued expenses and other liabilities. However, there can be no assurance that we will raise sufficient funds to eliminate such amounts.
Additionally, the terms of our Preferred Stock, our Loan Agreement, and our Sales Agreement may negatively impact our ability to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings, due to the potential substantial dilution to our stockholders that could occur as a result of the conversion of our convertible Preferred Stock or our issuance of shares under the Loan Agreement or Sales Agreement and due to the other terms of our Preferred Stock and such agreements, or may negatively affect our ability to obtain favorable or acceptable terms in connection with any such financing.
Furthermore, if we raise additional capital through marketing, sales, and distribution arrangements or other collaborations, strategic alliances, or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish certain valuable rights to our product candidates, future revenue streams, research programs, or technologies or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we raise additional capital through public or private equity offerings, the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect our stockholders’ rights. Further, to the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock, your ownership interest will be diluted. If we raise additional capital through debt financing, we would be subject to fixed payment obligations and may be subject to covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, engaging in acquisition, merger, or collaboration transactions, selling or licensing our assets, making capital expenditures, redeeming our stock, making certain investments, declaring dividends, or other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business.
Any future debt financing or other financing of securities senior to our Common Stock will likely include financial and other covenants that will restrict our flexibility. Any failure to comply with these covenants may cause an event of default and acceleration of the obligation to pay the debt, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations and we could lose our existing sources of funding and impair our ability to secure new sources of funding.
Adequate additional financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, and may be impacted by the economic climate and market conditions. If we are unable to obtain additional financing on favorable terms when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate preclinical studies, clinical trials, or other research and development activities or one or more of our development programs.
