NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business

General. Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. (“Coeptis”, the “Company” or “we” or “our”) was originally incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on November 27, 2018, under the name Bull Horn Holdings Corp. On October 27, 2022, Bull Horn Holdings Corp. domesticated from the British Virgin Islands to the State of Delaware. On October 28, 2022, in connection with the closing of the Merger, we changed our corporate name from Bull Horn Holdings Corp. to “Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings, Inc.”

The Merger Transaction. On October 28, 2022, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bull Horn Holdings Corp., merged with and into Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc., with Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc. as the surviving corporation of the Merger. As a result of the Merger, we acquired the business of Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc., which we now continue to operate as our wholly owned subsidiary.

About the Company’s Subsidiaries. We are now a holding company that currently operates through our direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc., Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, LLC.

Our current business model is designed around furthering the development of our current product portfolio. We are continually exploring partnership opportunities with companies that have novel therapies in various stages of development or companies with technologies that improve the way that drugs are delivered to patients. We seek the best strategic relationships, which relationships could include in-license agreements, out-license agreements, co-development arrangements and other strategic partnerships in new and exciting therapeutic areas such as auto-immune disease and oncology.

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to instructions, rules, and regulations prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 that was filed with the SEC on March 29, 2023.

As a result of the Merger, the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report reflect (1) the historical operating results of Coeptis prior to the Merger; (2) the combined results of the Company and Coeptis following the closing of the Merger; (3) the assets and liabilities of Coeptis at their historical cost; and (4) the Company’s equity structure for all periods presented.

Principles of Consolidation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings Inc. (formerly Bullhorn Holdings, Inc.), Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc., Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, LLC. All material intercompany accounts, balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Risks and Uncertainties – In late 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of the Coronavirus 2019 Disease (COVID-19) was identified and infections have been found in a number of countries around the world, including the United States. COVID-19 and its impact on trade including customer demand, travel, employee productivity, supply chain, and other economic activities has had, and may continue to have, a potentially significant effect on financial markets and business activity. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operational and financial performance is currently uncertain and cannot be predicted.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 29, 2023. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies during the three month period ended March 31, 2023, except for items mentioned below.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Employee and Non-Employee Share-Based Compensation –

The Company applies ASC 718-10, “Share-Based Payment,” which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expenses for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options equity awards issued to employees and non-employees based on estimated fair values.

ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The fair value of the award is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognizes share-based award forfeitures as they occur.

The Company estimates the fair value of granted option equity awards using a Black-Scholes options pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are share price, expected volatility and the expected option term (the time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). Expected volatility is estimated based on volatility of the Company. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from governmental zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The expected option term is calculated for options granted to employees and directors using the “simplified” method. Changes in the determination of each of the inputs can affect the fair value of the options granted and the results of operations of the Company.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

During the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Going Concern – The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern, which is dependent upon the Company’s ability to obtain sufficient financials or establish itself as a profitable business. As of the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company had accumulated deficit of $73,607,967. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with respect to operations include raising additional capital through sales of equity or debt securities as may be necessary to pursue its business plans and sustain operations until such time as the Company can achieve profitability. Management believes that additional financing as necessary will result in improved operations and cash flow. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful in obtaining additional funding or in attaining profitable operations.

NOTE 3 – LICENSE RIGHT

Prior to 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a foreign entity to market, distribute, and sell the Consensi product (Product) on an exclusive basis within the United States and Puerto Rico. Upon execution of the Agreement the Company paid $1,000,000 to the foreign entity. Milestone payments were due as follows; (1) $1,500,000 upon completion of the CMC Plan as reimbursements of costs incurred by the foreign entity, (2) $1,000,000 was due upon first commercial sale of the Product which occurred in June 2020. Milestones were met and paid in 2020.

In September of 2021, the Company executed a license termination agreement with the foreign entity to cease all efforts for sales and promotion of the product in the United States and Puerto Rico. The termination included (i) issuance of $1,500,000 of convertible debt due in 2023 to satisfy amounts owed for the license, (ii) the issue of warrants (See NOTE 5) and (iii) transfer of inventory ownership back to the foreign entity. In conjunction with this termination, the Company also terminated its marketing agreement with a third party for the Product’s sales and promotion.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company and VyGen-Bio, Inc. (“Vy-Gen”) entered into agreements to jointly develop and commercialize two Vy-Gen product candidates, CD38-GEAR-NK and CD38-Diagnostic (the “CD38 Assets”). The Company paid $1,750,000 and issued promissory notes totaling $3,250,000 to Vy-Gen in accordance with the agreements. The collaboration arrangement provides the right for the Company to participate, under the direction of a joint steering committee, in the development and commercialization of the CD38 Assets and a 50/50 profit share, with the profit share subject to contingent automatic downward adjustment up to 25% upon an event of default in connection with the promissory notes. The Company capitalized $5,000,000 to be amortized over a five-year period in which the CD38 Assets are expected to contribute to future cash flows. In March of 2022, a $250,000 payment was made toward the promissory notes. In November of 2022, a $1,500,000 payment was made toward the promissory notes, and the accrued interest was forgiven. As of March 31, 2023, the balance due under the two promissory notes totaled $0. The Company is in compliance with the option agreement as of March 31, 2023. 

The Company made certain judgements as the basis in determining the accounting treatment of these options. The CD38 Assets represent a platform technology and a diagnostic tool which have multiple applications and uses. Both projects are intended to be used in more than one therapy or diagnostic option. For example, GEAR-NK is a technology which allows for the gene editing of human natural killer cells, so that these cells can no longer bind and be destroyed by targeted monoclonal antibody treatments. The GEAR-NK technology can be modified to work concomitantly with many different monoclonal antibody treatments in which there are currently over 100 approved by the FDA. Anti-CD38 is only the first class of monoclonal antibody treatments being developed under the GEAR-NK platform. Therefore, the pursuit of FDA approval for the use of CD38 assets for at least one indication or medical device approval is at least reasonably expected. Further, as the diagnostic asset may be used as an in vitro technology, it could be classified as a medical device, and therefore toxicity studies would not be a contingency to be resolved before reasonably establishing future value assumptions. In addition, there is perceived value in the CD38 assets, based on publicly disclosed current business deals in cell therapies, the developing market for these innovative technologies, and current interest from third parties in these technologies. The Company may sell or license its right to another party, with the written consent of VyGen Bio, which cannot be unreasonably withheld. Furthermore, the Company believes that any negative results from ongoing development of a single therapy or use, would not result in abandoning the project. Given these considerations, The Company has determined that these options have alternative future use and should be recorded as assets pursuant to ASC 730-10-25-2, Research and Development.

Related to the joint development, the Company, under the direction of the joint steering committee, is assessing market opportunities, intellectual property protection, and potential regulatory strategies for the CD38 Assets. VyGen Bio is responsible for development activities conducted and overseen by the scientists at Karolinska Institute. The agreement does not currently require additional payments for R&D costs by the Company and no additional payments are required upon development or regulatory milestones.

NOTE 4 – DEBT

In January 2020, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Note agreement with an unrelated party. The principal amount of $500,000, which is secured by a security agreement, together with interest at 8%, plus additional 2% in the event of default, was due February 8, 2021. On April 14, 2022, the Company entered into a Debt modification agreement with the note holder, extending the maturity to July 31, 2022. The extension was executed in exchange for consideration of warrants exchangeable for 400,000 shares of common stock at a price of $1.50 per share issued to the debt holders on January 28, 2022. See Note 5 for details of warrants. In December of 2022, a $500,000 payment was made, along with an interest payment of $135,671, which satisfied the note in full.

In January 2020, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Note agreement with an unrelated party. The principal amount of $167,000, which is secured by a security agreement, together with interest at 8%, plus additional 2% in the event of default, was due February 8, 2021. On April 14, 2022, the Company entered into a Debt modification agreement with the note holder, extending the maturity to July 31, 2022. The extension was executed in exchange for consideration of warrants exchangeable for 250,000 shares of common stock at a price of $1.50 per share issued to the debt holders on January 28, 2022. See Note 5 for details of warrants. In July of 2022, a $50,000 payment was made toward principal. In November of 2022, a $117,000 payment was made, along with an interest payment of $42,893, which satisfied the note in full.

In September 2021, as part of a termination of a license agreement with Purple BioTech (“Purple”), the Company issued a convertible note in the principal amount of $1,500,000 that is payable on or before February 2023, bearing interest of 5% per annum and convertible in whole or in part at any time by Purple into shares of Common Stock of the Company. The conversion price is $5 per share of common stock, subject to certain adjustments under such terms and conditions as agreed between the parties. The Company may prepay the principal amount of the Note plus accrued and unpaid interest at any time, prior to the Maturity Date. Inventory, which has been fully written-off on the Company’s balance sheet, will be transferred back to Purple at Purple’s cost. As of March 2023, the loan is currently in default.

Loans under the CARES Act -- On May 6, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds in the amount of approximately $77,500 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP, established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), provides for loans to qualifying businesses for amounts up to 2.5 times of the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business. The loans and accrued interest are forgivable after eight weeks as long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. In February 2021, an additional $77,595 was received by the Company under the second round of PPP (“PPP2”). The Company has used the proceeds for purposes consistent with its intended use. Both the PPP and the PPP2 loans were forgiven in full, along with accrued interest, during 2021. The balance of the notes was $0 and $0 as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

On July 8, 2020, the Company received a loan of $150,000 from the United States Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) under its Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) assistance program in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business. Proceeds are intended to be used for working capital purposes. Interest on the EIDL Loan accrues at the rate of 3.75% per annum and installment payments, including principal and interest, are due monthly in the amount of $731. Each payment will be applied first to interest accrued to the date of receipt of each payment, and the balance, if any, will be applied to principal. Installment payments have been deferred by the SBA until January 2023. The balance of principal and interest is payable thirty years from the date of the promissory note. The balance of the loan is $150,000, as of March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Maturities of long-term debt are as follows for the years ended December 31,

Derivative Liability Warrants -

At March 31, 2023, there were (i) 7,500,000 public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) outstanding that were issued as part of Bull Horn’s November 2020 initial public offering, which warrants are exercisable in the aggregate to acquire 3,750,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share and (ii) 3,750,000 private warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) outstanding that were issued to our sponsor Bull Horn Holdings Sponsor LC and the underwriters in Bull Horn’s initial public offering November 2020, which warrants are exercisable in the aggregate to acquire 3,750,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. These warrants became exercisable on the consummation of our Business Combination in October 2022. No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 90 days from the consummation of a Business Combination, the holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise the Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company may call the Public Warrants for redemption, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described above, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants only allow the holder thereof to one ordinary share. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. 

ASC Section 815-40-15 addresses equity versus liability treatment and classification of equity-linked financial instruments, including warrants, and states that a warrant may be classified as a component of equity only if, among other things, the warrant is indexed to the issuer’s ordinary share. Under ASC Section 815-40-15, a warrant is not indexed to the issuer’s ordinary share if the terms of the warrant require an adjustment to the exercise price upon a specified event and that event is not an input to the fair value of the warrant. Based on management’s evaluation, the Company’s audit committee, in consultation with management, concluded that the Company’s Private Placement Warrants and Public Warrants are not indexed to the Company’s ordinary share in the manner contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-15 because the holder of the instrument is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares. In addition, based on management’s evaluation, the Company’s audit committee, in consultation with management, concluded that certain warrant provisions preclude equity treatment as by ASC Section 815-10-15.

The Company accounts for its Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants as liabilities as set forth in ASC 815-40-15-7D and 7F. See below for details over the methodology and valuation of the Warrants.

The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value: 

The Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Warrants were valued using a binomial lattice model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The binomial lattice model’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Warrants is the expected volatility of the ordinary shares. The expected volatility as of the Initial Public Offering date was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable ‘blank-check’ companies without an identified target. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the close price of the Public Warrant price will be used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements: 

The following table presents the changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities: 

There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 from other levels in the fair value hierarchy during the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

NOTE 5 – CAPITAL STRUCTURE

The total number of shares of stock which the corporation shall have authority to issue is 160,000,000 shares, of which 150,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value shall be designated as Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 shall be designated as Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock authorized by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation may be issued in one or more series. The Board of Directors of the Corporation is authorized to determine or alter the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions granted or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock, and within the limitations or restrictions stated in any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors originally fixing the number of shares constituting any series, to increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of any such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any such series subsequent to the issue of shares of that series, to determine the designation and par value of any series and to fix the numbers of shares of any series.

The Series B Preferred Stock was converted into common equity immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, and the shares of common stock received in such conversion were exchanged for shares of common stock in the Company at the closing of the Business Combination.

Stock Based Compensation –

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity is as follows:

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $122,391 and $0, respectively, for stock-based compensation expense related to stock options. As of March 31, 2023, unamortized stock-based compensation for stock options was $1,320,050 to be recognized through December 31, 2026.

The options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions:

Common Stock Warrants –

As a result of the Merger on October 28, 2022, all surviving warrants from Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc. were converted using a 2.9685:1 ratio, and became exercisable to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock.

On November 23, 2020, Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc. (under its prior name Vinings Holdings Inc.) issued a class A and a class B warrant to Coral Investment Partners, LP (“CIP”), with each warrant granting CIP the right to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $2 for Class A or $5 for Class B. The warrants expire on November 30, 2023. The warrants also contain a cashless exercise provision and contain anti-dilution provisions. In October 2021, the Company was notified by the warrant holder that they intend to exercise its right to purchase shares of the Company under these warrants. However, the required cash payment has not been received, and as of March 31, 2023, all warrants remain outstanding, exercisable to acquire 336,869 shares of the Company’s common stock on an as converted basis resulting from the consummation of the Business Combination in October 2022.

Warrant Holder 1 - On May 28, 2021, Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc. issued a warrant to a third party in exchange for professional services, granting the warrant holder the right to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $1 per share, 500,000 shares at $2 per share, and 500,000 shares at $5 per share.
