ZYVERSA THERAPEUTICS, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note
1 – Business Organization, Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Organization and Operations
ZyVersa
Therapeutics, Inc. (“ZyVersa” and the “Company”) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company leveraging proprietary
technologies to develop first-in-class drugs for patients with chronic renal or inflammatory diseases with high unmet medical needs.
The Company’s mission is to develop drugs that optimize health outcomes and improve patients’ quality of life.
Basis
of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
of the Company as of September 30, 2024 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The results of
operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 25, 2024 and as amended on May 15, 2024.
On
December 4, 2023, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-35 (the “2023 Reverse Split”).
Upon the effectiveness of the 2023 Reverse Split, every 35 issued shares of common stock were reclassified and combined into one share
of common stock. In addition, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company’s equity awards, convertible
securities and warrants was proportionally decreased, and the corresponding conversion price or exercise price was proportionally increased.
No fractional shares were issued as a result of the 2023 Reverse Split.
On
April 25, 2024, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the “2024 Reverse Split”).
Upon the effectiveness of the 2024 Reverse Split, every 10 issued shares of common stock were reclassified and combined into one share
of common stock. In addition, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company’s equity awards, convertible
securities and warrants was proportionally decreased, and the corresponding conversion price or exercise price was proportionally increased.
No fractional shares were issued as a result of the 2024 Reverse Split.
Accordingly,
all share and per share amounts for all periods presented in these financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively,
where applicable, to reflect the 2023 Reverse Split and the 2024 Reverse Split and adjustment of the conversion price or exercise price
of each outstanding equity award, convertible security and warrant as if the transaction had occurred as of the beginning of the earliest
period presented. See Note 7 – Stockholders’ Permanent and Temporary Equity – Reverse Stock Split.
Note
2 - Going Concern and Management’s Plans
The
accompanying 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. The condensed 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.
As
of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of approximately $0.1 million and a working capital deficit of approximately $11.2 million.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $8.0 million and used cash in operations
of approximately $6.3 million. The Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $111.2 million as of September 30, 2024.
The
Company has not yet achieved profitability and expects to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. It is expected that its research
and development and general and administrative expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, the Company will eventually need
to generate significant product revenues to achieve profitability.
Consequently,
the Company will be required to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing. Subsequent to September 30, 2024, the Company
raised an aggregate of $3.1
million from stock warrant exercises and
its “at-the-market” facility. See Note 8 – Subsequent Events for additional details.
Management believes that the Company has access to capital resources and continues to evaluate additional financing opportunities; however,
there can be no assurance that it will be successful in securing additional capital or that the Company will be able to obtain funds
on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. There is also no assurance that the amount of funds the Company might raise will enable
the Company to complete its development initiatives or attain profitable operations. The aforementioned conditions raise substantial
doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the issuance date of these financial
statements.

to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note
3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Since
the date the Company’s December 31, 2023 financial statements were issued in its 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K, there have been
no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies.
Use
of Estimates
Preparation
of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements and the amounts disclosed in the related notes to the financial statements. The Company
bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the
circumstances. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the Company’s balance sheets and the amounts of expenses reported
for each of the periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, fair value calculations
for equity securities, share based compensation and acquired intangible assets, as well as establishment of valuation allowances for
deferred tax assets. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the
Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that actual results could differ from those estimates.
Deferred
Offering Costs
Deferred
offering costs, which primarily consist of direct, incremental professional fees incurred in connection with a debt or equity financing,
are capitalized as deferred offering costs (a non-current asset) on the balance sheet. Once the financing closes, the Company reclassifies
such costs as either discounts to notes payable or as a reduction of proceeds received from equity transactions so that such costs are
recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. If the completion of a contemplated financing was deemed to be no longer probable,
the related deferred offering costs would be charged to general and administrative expense in the consolidated financial statements.
Net
Loss Per Common Share
Basic
net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and dilutive
common-equivalent shares outstanding during each period.
The
following table sets forth the outstanding potentially dilutive securities that have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net
loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive:

Segment
Reporting
The
Company operates and manages its business as one reportable and operating segment. All assets and operations are in the U.S. The Company’s
Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker, reviews financial information on an aggregate basis for purposes
of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance.
Reclassifications
Certain
prior period balances have been reclassified from security deposits to vendor deposits on the condensed consolidated balance sheet in
order to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations
or loss per share.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07,
Improvements to Reportable Segments Disclosures (Topic 280), which updates reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through
enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses on both an annual and interim basis. The guidance becomes effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption
permitted. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have any material effects
on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating any new disclosures that may be
required upon adoption of ASU 2023-07.

| 9.44 | % |
The
tax provisions for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were computed using the estimated effective tax rates applicable
to the taxable jurisdictions for the full year. The Company’s tax rate is subject to management’s quarterly review and revision,
as necessary. The Company’s effective tax rate was (0.12)% and 9.44% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The
decrease in the quarterly rates is primarily the result of the Company recording a full valuation allowance during the nine months ended
September 30, 2024 due to the reversal of a significant deferred tax liability that existed as of September 30, 2023.
Note
6 – Commitments and Contingencies
Litigations,
Claims and Assessments
In
the normal course of business, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims and assessments arising in the ordinary course
of business. The Company records contingent liabilities resulting from such claims, if any, when a loss is assessed to be probable and
the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable.

June 30, 2024 and July 1, 2024, the Company received two invoices from a vendor in the amounts of $992,176 and $162,800, respectively.
The June 30, 2024 invoice represents retroactive interest on invoices going back to September 30, 2022. The July 1, 2024 invoice consisted
of miscellaneous unsupported charges performed over the past several years. On August 1, 2024, ZyVersa management sent the vendor a letter
disputing these invoices and has requested the vendor to rescind each of them. The Company received additional invoices dated July 31,
2024, August 31, 2024, and September 30, 2024 in the amounts of $76,453, $81,826, and $87,481, respectively. Similar to the prior invoices, management
has requested the vendor to rescind each of them. Although the Company has requested the vendor to rescind each of them, the Company
believes that in accordance with the agreement, the vendor can legally charge the Company interest from the point they were notified.
As such, the Company included the calculated interest from July 1, 2024 to September 30, 2024 of $131,300 within accrued expenses and
other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2024.

License
Agreements
L&F
Research LLC
The
Company entered into a License Agreement with L&F Research LLC (“L&F”) effective December 15, 2015, as amended
(the “L&F License Agreement”) pursuant to which L&F granted the Company an exclusive royalty-bearing, worldwide,
sublicensable license under the patent and intellectual property rights and know-how specific to and for the development and commercialization
of VAR 200, for the treatment, inhibition or prevention of kidney disease in humans and symptoms thereof, including focal segmental glomerulosclerosis.
On
February 28, 2023, the Company and L&F executed an Amendment and Restatement Agreement that waived L&F’s right to terminate
the L&F License Agreement or any other remedies, for non-payment of the First Milestone Payment, until (a) March 31, 2023 as to $1,000,000
of such milestone payments (“Waiver A”) and (b) January 31, 2024 as to $500,000 milestone payments (“Waiver B”).
Waiver A was contingent upon (i) forgiveness by the Company of $351,579 in aggregate principal amount outstanding under a certain convertible
note, and (ii) a cash payment by the Company to L&F in the amount of $648,421, on or before March 31, 2023. Waiver B was contingent
upon a cash payment by the Company to L&F in the amount of $500,000 on or before the earlier of (x) January 31, 2024, and (y) ten
business days from the date that the Company received net proceeds of at least $30,000,000 from the issuance of new equity capital. All
other terms of the L&F License remain in effect.
On
March 29, 2023, the Company paid the $648,421 of cash to L&F, thus meeting the conditions of Waiver A, which also had the effect
of canceling the Note Receivable and the Put Option and resulted in a reclassification of 188 shares of common stock and $331,331 classified
as temporary equity to permanent equity.
On
January 30, 2024, the Company paid $500,000 of cash to L&F, thus meeting the conditions of Waiver B.
Operating
Leases
On
January 18, 2019, the Company entered into a lease agreement for approximately 3,500
square feet of office space in Weston, Florida for a term of five years. Under the lease agreement, the annual base rent, which
excludes the Company’s share of taxes and operating costs, was approximately $89,000
for the first year and has increased approximately 3% every year thereafter for a total base rent lease commitment of approximately
$497,000.
On January 15, 2024, the Company extended the lease for an additional year for a total base rent lease commitment of $112,064.
The Company used the short-term lease practical expedient which permits the Company to not capitalize leases with a term equal to or
less than 12 months.
The
Company recognized right-of-use asset amortization of $0 and $7,839 in connection with its operating lease for the three and nine months
ending September 30, 2024, respectively, and the Company recognized rent expense of $42,696 and $127,439 in connection with its operating lease for

Reverse
Stock Split
On
April 25, 2024, the Company effected the 2024 Reverse Split. Upon the effectiveness of the 2024 Reverse Split, every 10 issued shares

upon the exercise of the Company’s equity awards, convertible securities and warrants was proportionally decreased, and the corresponding
conversion price or exercise price was proportionally increased. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the 2024 Reverse Split.
See Note 1 – Business Organization, Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation for additional details.

Stock
Warrants
Between
February 26, 2024 and March 6, 2024, investors in the public offering completed on December 11, 2023 (the “December 2023 Offering”) exercised warrants to
purchase 213,800
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $12.50
per share for total proceeds of $2,672,500.
Between
January 17 and February 23, 2024, a December 2023 Offering investor exercised pre-funded warrants to purchase 131,500 shares of common
stock on a cashless basis to purchase 131,481 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share.
On
August 1, 2024, the Company initiated a limited time program, which was immediately accepted by the warrant holder, that permitted
the holder to exercise its December 2023 Offering warrants at a reduced exercise price of $3.46 per
share and granted new warrants to purchase up to (i) 392,000 shares
of common stock which became exercisable upon stockholder approval with an exercise term of five years and (ii) 86,600 shares
of common stock which became exercisable upon stockholder approval with an exercise term of 18 months.
The Company received stockholder approval for the warrants on October 29, 2024 and the warrants have an exercise price of $3.46 per
share. Under the program, the warrant holder submitted an exercise notice and the related aggregate cash exercise price to purchase 239,300 shares
of common stock on August 1, 2024 for gross proceeds of $827,978 less
issuance costs of $427,054.
Issuance costs included placement agent fees of $50,000,
placement agent legal fees of $50,000,
Company legal fees of $57,267,
other expenses of $22,875 and
warrant modification costs of $246,912.
Because the modification represented a short-term inducement, modification accounting was only performed on the warrants that were
actually exercised under the program. The Company recognized the $246,912 modification
date incremental value of the modified warrants and additional warrants issued as compared to the original warrants, as an issuance
cost of the warrant exercise.

Effectiveness
Failure
In
connection with the business combination with Larkspur Health Acquisition Corp., the Company conducted the Series A Preferred Stock Financing.
On or about February 20, 2023, the Company failed to have the SEC declare a registration statement effective (the “Effectiveness
Failure”) which covered the Series A Preferred Stock registrable securities within the time period prescribed by the Securities
Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”). The SPA entitles the investors to receive registration delay payments (“Registration
Delay Payments”) equal to 1.5% of each investor’s purchase price on the date of the Effectiveness Failure and every thirty
days thereafter that the Effectiveness Failure persists. Failure to make the Registration Delay Payments on a timely basis result in
the accrual of interest at the rate of 2.0% per month. On April 28, 2023, the proceeds from the April 2023 Offering were used to make
most of the Registration Delay Payments and redeem substantially all of the Series A Preferred Stock. As of September 30, 2024, the Company
has accrued additional Registration Delay Payments of approximately $7,261 in the aggregate.
Note
8 – Subsequent Events
At-The-Market
Offering
Subsequent
to September 30, 2024, the Company received approximately $1.39 million in gross proceeds from the sale of 564,495 shares of its common
stock pursuant to its ATM Agreement with A.G.P. for its “at-the-market” facility.
Common
Stock
Subsequent
to September 30, 2024, the Company entered into marketing agreements with two vendors, pursuant to which the Company issued an
aggregate of 51,000
shares of common stock in exchange for marketing services. The fair value of the common stock was established as a prepaid expense
and the Company is recognizing $47,670
of the expense over the six month term of one of the contracts and $69,000
of the expense over the three month term of the other contract.
Stock
Warrants
On
November 5, 2024, the Company initiated a limited time program, which was immediately accepted by warrant holders, that permitted the
holders to exercise 339,900 of its December 2023 and 478,600 of its August 2024 Common Stock Purchase warrants at a reduced exercise
price of $2.06 per share from $12.50 and $3.46 per share, respectively. New warrants were granted to purchase 1,637,000 shares
of common stock at an exercise price of $2.06 per share with an exercise term of 5 years from stockholder approval.
Under
the program, the warrant holders submitted exercise notices and the related aggregate cash exercise price to purchase an aggregate of
818,500 shares of common stock on November 5, 2024 for gross proceeds of $1,686,110. However, due to beneficial ownership
limitations, only 654,500 of the 818,500 shares of common stock have been issued through the filing date. The remaining 164,000
unissued shares of common stock are held in abeyance pending availability under the beneficial ownership limitations. Issuance costs
include financial advisor fees of $110,000 and reimbursement to the financial advisor for non-accountable fees of $10,000.
ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The
following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of ZyVersa Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company,”
“we,” “us” or “our”) as of September 30, 2024 and for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2024 and 2023 should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial
statements that are included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the Company’s audited financial statements and related disclosures as of December 31, 2023 and for the year then ended, which
are included in the Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
on March 25, 2024, as amended on May 15, 2024. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations contains statements that are forward-looking. These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are
subject to risk, uncertainties and other factors. These statements are often identified by the use of words such as “may,”
“will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,”
“estimate,” or “continue,” and similar expressions or variations. Actual results could differ materially because
of the factors discussed in “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, and other factors that we may not know. Except as otherwise
required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the
statements above, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Business
Overview
We
are a clinical stage specialty biopharmaceutical company leveraging advanced proprietary technologies to develop first-in-class drugs
for patients with inflammatory or kidney diseases with high unmet medical needs. We are well positioned in the rapidly emerging inflammasome
space with a highly differentiated monoclonal antibody, Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100, and in kidney disease with phase 2 Cholesterol
Efflux MediatorTM VAR 200. The lead indication for IC 100 is obesity and its associated metabolic complications, and for VAR
200, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Each therapeutic area offers a “pipeline within a product,” with potential
for numerous indications. The total accessible market is over $100 billion.
Financial
Operations Overview
We
have not generated any revenue to date and have incurred significant operating losses. Our net losses were $8.0 million for the period
from January 1, 2024 through September 30, 2024, compared to $85.0 million for the period from January 1, 2023 through September 30,
2023. As of September 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $111.2 million and cash of $0.1 million. We expect to
continue to incur significant expenses for the foreseeable future and to incur operating losses. We expect our expenses will increase
in connection with our ongoing activities as we:
|
● |
progress
development of VAR 200 and IC 100; |
|
|
|
|
● |
prepare
and file regulatory submissions; |
|
|
|
|
● |
begin
to manufacture our product candidates for clinical trials; |
|
|
|
|
● |
hire
additional research and development, finance, and general and administrative personnel; |
|
|
|
|
● |
protect
and defend our intellectual property; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
meet
the requirements of being a public company. |
We
will need additional financing to support our continuing operations. We will seek to fund our operations through public or private equity
or debt financings or other sources, which may include government grants and collaborations with third parties. Adequate additional financing
may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact
on our financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategy. We will need to generate significant revenues to achieve
profitability, and we may never do so.
Components
of Operating Results
Revenue
Since
inception, we have not generated any revenue and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products in the near future.
If our development efforts for our product candidates are successful and result in regulatory approval, or if we enter into collaboration
or license agreements with third parties, we may generate revenue in the future from a combination of product sales or payments from
collaboration or license agreements.
Operating
Expenses
Research
and Development Expenses
Research
and development expenses consist of costs incurred in the discovery and development of our product candidates, and primarily include:
|
● |
expenses
incurred under third party agreements with contract research organizations (“CROs”), and investigative sites, that conducted
or will conduct our clinical trials and a portion of our pre-clinical activities; |
|
|
|
|
● |
costs
of raw materials, as well as manufacturing cost of our materials used in clinical trials and other development testing; |
|
|
|
|
● |
expenses,
including salaries, stock-based compensation and benefits of employees engaged in research and development activities; |
|
|
|
|
● |
costs
of equipment, depreciation and other allocated expenses; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
fees
paid for contracted regulatory services as well as fees paid to regulatory authorities including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(the “FDA”) for review and approval of our product candidates. |
We
expense research and development costs as incurred. Costs for external development activities are recognized based on an evaluation of
the progress to completion of specific tasks using information provided to us by our vendors. Payments for these activities are based
on the terms of the individual agreements, which may differ from the pattern of costs incurred, and are reflected in our financial statements
as prepaid expenses or accrued expenses.
Research
and development activities are central to our business model. We expect that our research and development expenses will continue to increase
for the foreseeable future as we continue clinical development for our product candidates. As products enter later stages of clinical
development, they will generally have higher development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to
the increased size and duration of later-stage clinical trials. Historically, our research and development costs have primarily related
to the development of VAR 200 and IC 100. As we advance VAR 200 and IC 100, as well as identify any other potential product candidates,
we will continue to allocate our direct external research and development costs to the products. We expect to fund our research and development
expenses from our current cash and cash equivalents and any future equity or debt financings, or other capital sources, including potential
collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions.
The
successful development of our 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 remainder of the development of, or when, if ever, material net
cash inflows may commence from our product candidates. This uncertainty is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with
the duration and cost of clinical trials, which vary significantly over the life of a project as a result of many factors, including:
|
● |
the
number of clinical sites included in the clinical trials; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
length of time required to enroll suitable patients; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
size of patient populations participating in the clinical trials; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
number of doses a patient receives; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
duration of patient follow-ups; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
development state of the product candidates; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
the
efficacy and safety profile of the product candidates. |
Our
expenditures are subject to additional uncertainties, including the terms and timing of regulatory approvals, and the expense of filing,
prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims or other intellectual property rights. We may never succeed in achieving regulatory
approval for our product candidates. We may obtain unexpected results from our clinical trials. We may elect to discontinue, delay or
modify clinical trials of our product candidates. A change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of
a product candidate could mean a significant change in the costs and timing associated with the development of that product candidate.
For example, if the FDA or other regulatory authorities were to require us to conduct clinical trials beyond those that we currently
anticipate, or if we experience significant delays in enrollment in any of our clinical trials, we could be required to expend significant
additional financial resources and time on the completion of clinical development. Product commercialization will take several years
and likely millions of dollars in development costs.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, stock-based compensation and related costs for our employees in administrative,
executive and finance functions. General and administrative expenses also include professional fees for legal, accounting, audit, tax
and consulting services, insurance, human resource, information technology, office, and travel expenses.
We
expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we increase our general and administrative headcount
to support our continued research and development and potential commercialization of our product candidates. We also expect to incur
substantial expenses associated with being a public company, including costs of accounting, audit, legal, regulatory and tax compliance
services, director and officer insurance, and investor and public relations costs.

Research
and Development Expenses
Research
and development expenses were approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $0.2
million or 35.3% from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease of $0.2 million
in the manufacturing and pre-clinical costs of IC 100 and VAR 200.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses were approximately $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately
$0.4 million or 17.7% from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease is attributable to a $0.1 million decrease in professional
fees due to reduced fees of public auditors and legal counsel, a $0.2 million decrease in director and officer insurance due to reduced
costs in the second year of being a public company, and a $0.1 million decrease in stock-based compensation as a result of options becoming
fully amortized in 2024.
Other
(Expense) Income, Net
Interest
expense was approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of approximately $0.1 million or 100%
from the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in interest charged by a vendor
for outstanding amounts owed.

Research
and Development Expenses
Research
and development expenses were approximately $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately $1.3
million or 43.8% from the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease of $1.2 million
in the manufacturing and pre-clinical costs of IC 100 and a decrease of approximately $0.5 million in payroll expenses due to employee
attrition. This was slightly offset by an increase of approximately $0.4 million in contract research organization expenses for the production
of VAR 200.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses were approximately $6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of approximately
$3.5 million or 36.1% from the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease is primarily attributable to $1.2 million of common
stock granted to certain members of the Sponsor and recognized in 2023 in exchange for increasing the duration of the period during which
they are not permitted to sell their common stock, a $0.5 million decrease in professional fees due to reduced fees related to public
auditors and legal counsel, a $0.2 million decrease in marketing costs for investor and public relations as a result of a reduction in
marketing vendors in 2024, and a $0.4 million decrease in expense for the Effectiveness Failure related to shares issued to investors
pursuant to a securities purchase agreement in July 2022, a $0.5 million decrease in director and officer insurance due to reduced costs
in the second year of being a public company, a $0.5 million decrease in payroll expenses as a result of a prior period bonus accrual
recognized upon board approval and a $0.2 million for decrease in stock-based compensation as a result of options becoming fully amortized
in 2024
Impairment
of In-Process Research and Development and Goodwill
For
the nine months ended September 30, 2023, impairment of in-process research and development and impairment of goodwill were $69.3 million
and $11.9 million, respectively. The impairment was a result of the decline in stock value and market capitalization of the Company at
June 30, 2023. There was no impairment for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Cash
Flows from Operating Activities
Net
cash used in operating activities was approximately $6.3 million and approximately $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2024 and 2023, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the net cash used in operating activities was primarily
attributable to the net loss of approximately $8.0 million and $85.0 million, respectively, offset by $0.6 million and $75.0 million,
respectively, of net non-cash expenses, and approximately $1.0 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of cash generated by the levels
of operating assets and liabilities, respectively.
Net
Cash Provided By Financing Activities
Net
cash provided by financing activities was $3.3 million and $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily represented proceeds from the exercise
of warrants. Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily represented $13.1 million
in proceeds from the issuance of common stock in a public offering. This was partially offset by $10.7 million in cash paid for the redemption
of Series A Preferred Stock and $1.8 million in registration and issuance costs associated with common stock issuances.

Since
our inception in 2014 through September 30, 2024, we have not generated any revenue and have incurred significant operating losses and
negative cash flows from our operations. Based on our current operating plan, we expect our cash of $0.1 million as of September 30,
2024 will only be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements on a month-to-month basis. However,
it is difficult to predict our spending for our product candidates prior to obtaining FDA approval. Moreover, changing circumstances
may cause us to expend cash significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to spend more cash than currently expected
because of circumstances beyond our control.
Going
Concern
Since
inception we have been engaged in organizational activities, including raising capital and research and development activities. We have
not generated revenues and have not yet achieved profitable operations, nor have we ever generated positive cash flow from operations.
There is no assurance that profitable operations, if achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis. We are subject to those risks
associated with any pre-revenue stage pharmaceutical company that has substantial expenditures for research and development. There can
be no assurance that our research and development projects will be successful, that products developed will obtain necessary regulatory
approval, or that any approved product will be commercially viable. In addition, we operate in an environment of rapid technological
change and are largely dependent on the services of our employees and consultants. Further, our future operations are dependent on the
success of our efforts to raise additional capital. These uncertainties raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern for 12 months after the issuance date of our financial statements. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on
a going concern basis. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability
and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of us to continue
as a going concern, which contemplates the continuation of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary
course of business. We incurred a net loss of $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and a net loss of $85.0 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and we had an accumulated deficit of $111.2 million at September 30, 2024. We anticipate
incurring additional losses until such time, if ever, that we can generate significant revenue from our product candidates currently
in development. Our primary source of capital has been the issuance of debt and equity securities. We believe that current cash is only
sufficient to fund operations and capital requirements on a month-to-month basis. Additional financing will be needed by us to fund our
operations, to complete development of and to commercially develop our product candidates. There is no assurance that such financing
will be available when needed or on acceptable terms.
Subsequent to
September 30, 2024, the Company raised an aggregate of $3.1 million from stock warrant exercises and its “at-the-market”
facility with A.G.P.
Contractual
Obligations
The
following summarizes our contractual obligations as of September 30, 2024 that will affect our future liquidity. Based on our current
operating plan, we plan to satisfy the obligations identified below from our current cash balance and future financing.
Cash
requirements for our current liabilities as of September 30, 2024 include approximately $11.5 million for accounts payable and accrued
expenses.
Capital
Needs
On
September 16, 2024, we entered into a Sales Agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with A.G.P. pursuant to which we may offer
and sell shares of common stock up to an aggregate offering proceeds of $1,397,396 from time to time. Sales of our common stock
under the ATM Agreement may be made in sales deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4)
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Subsequent to September 30, 2024, the Company raised $1.39 million in
gross proceeds under the ATM Agreement.
We
intend to raise additional capital in the future to fund continued development of VAR200 and IC100.
We
expect to raise additional capital by issuing equity, equity-linked securities, or debt in subsequent offerings. If we are unable to
raise additional capital on terms favorable to us, we may not have sufficient liquidity to execute on our business strategy. We have
various warrants outstanding that can be exercised for our common stock, many of which must be exercised in exchange for cash paid to
us by the holders of such warrants. If the market price of our common stock is less than the exercise price of a holder’s warrants,
it is unlikely that holders will exercise their warrants. As such, we do not expect to receive significant proceeds in the near term
from the exercise of most of our warrants based on the current market price of our common stock and the exercise prices of such warrants.
Our
policy is to invest any cash in excess of our immediate requirements in investments designed to preserve the principal balance and provide
liquidity while producing a modest return on investment. Accordingly, our cash equivalents will be invested primarily in money m
