AIKIDO PHARMA INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Organization and Description of Business and Recent Developments

 

Organization and Description of Business

 

AIkido Pharma Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as Spherix Incorporated, was initially formed in 1967. Since 2017, the Company has operated as a biotechnology company with a diverse portfolio of small-molecule anticancer and antiviral therapeutics in development. The Company’s pipeline consists of patented technology from leading universities and researchers. The Company’s innovative therapeutic drug pipeline is currently being advanced through strong collaborations with renowned educational institutions, including the University of Texas at Austin, the University of Maryland, Baltimore and Wake Forest University. The Company’s oncology therapeutics include prospective treatments for pancreatic cancer, acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The Company is also developing a broad-spectrum antiviral platform, in which the lead compounds have activity in cell-based assays against multiple viruses including Influenza virus, Ebolavirus and Marburg virus, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19.

 

As a result of the Company’s biotechnology research and development and associated investments and acquisitions, its business portfolio now focuses on the treatment of three different cancers and multiple types of viral infections. The Company’s pancreatic drug candidate, DHA-dFdC, developed at and licensed from the University of Texas at Austin, is a new compound that it hopes will become the next generation of chemotherapy treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer. DHA-dFdC overcomes tumor cell resistance to current chemotherapeutic drugs and is well tolerated in preclinical toxicity tests. Preclinical studies have also indicated that DHA-dFdC inhibits pancreatic cancer cell growth (up to 100,000-fold more potent that gemcitabine, a current standard therapy), accumulates preferentially in pancreatic tissue and has demonstrated activities against other cancers, including leukemia, lung and melanoma. The Company’s AML and ALL compound, developed at the Wake Forest University, is a targeted therapeutic designed to overcome multiple resistance mechanisms observed with the current standard of care.

 

The Company’s broad-spectrum antiviral platform was developed at the University of Maryland Baltimore (“UMB”), which granted the Company an exclusive worldwide Master License Agreement (MLA”) to technology covered by three separate patent applications. The licensed technology comprises broadly acting pan-viral inhibitory compounds targeting multiple viral pathogens. The technology was invented by UMB scientists Drs. Matthew Frieman, Alexander MacKerell and Stuart Watson. The Company has also executed a Sponsored Research Agreement with UMB to support the development of the technology under the direction of these inventors at UMB.

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

On June 7, 2022, the Company effected a seventeen-for-one (17-for-1) reverse stock split of its class of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split, which was approved by stockholders at an annual stockholder meeting on May 20, 2022, was consummated pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on June 2, 2022 (the “Certificate of Amendment”). The Reverse Stock Split was effective on June 7, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). All references to common stock, convertible preferred stock, warrants to purchase common stock, options to purchase common stock, restricted stock units, restricted stock awards, share data, per share data and related information contained in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented. Payment for fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split amounted to $26 thousand.

 

Note 2. Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company continues to incur ongoing administrative and other expenses, including public company expenses, in excess of corresponding (non-financing related) revenue. While the Company continues to implement its business strategy, it intends to finance its activities through managing current cash on hand from the Company’s past debt and equity offerings.

 

Based upon projected cash flow requirements, the Company has adequate cash to fund its operations for at least the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, AIkido Labs LLC. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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 these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Note 8. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

 

Financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an 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 maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

 

13

 

AIKIDO PHARMA INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited) 

 

The Company uses three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

Level 2 - quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

 

Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

 

Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company’s market assumptions. Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Such determination requires significant management judgment.

 

The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 ($ in thousands):

Note 9. Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

 

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss allocable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock or common stock equivalents outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Securities that could potentially dilute loss per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share at June 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

 

   As of June 30, 
   2022   2021 
Convertible preferred stock   34    40 
Warrants to purchase common stock   444,796    341,268 
Options to purchase common stock   27,980    25,255 
Total   472,810    366,563 

 

Note 10. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

 

Series O and Series P Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On February 24, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in concurrent registered direct offerings (the “Offerings”), (i) 11,000 shares of the Company’s Series O Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series O Preferred Stock”), and (ii) 11,000 shares of the Company’s Series P Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series P Preferred Stock” and together with the Series O Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”), in each case, at an offering price of $952.38 per share, representing a 5% original issue discount to the stated value of $1,000 per share of Preferred Stock, for gross proceeds of each Offering of $10,476,180, or approximately $21.0 million in the aggregate for the Offerings, before the deduction of the placement agent’s fee and offering expenses. The shares of Series O Preferred Stock will have a stated value of $1,000 per share and will be convertible, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share, into 11,000,000 shares of common stock (subject in certain circumstances to adjustments). The shares of Series P Preferred Stock will have a stated value of $1,000 per share and will be convertible, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share, into 11,000,000 shares of common stock (subject in certain circumstances to adjustments). The Series O Preferred Stock and the Series P Preferred Stock are being offered by the Company pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-238172) (the “Registration Statement”) filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and customary conditions to closing. The closing of the Offerings occurred on March 2, 2022. In connection with this transaction, the Company received net proceeds of $21.0 million, which was deposited in an escrow account.

 

In connection with the Offerings, the Company has entered into an engagement agreement (the “Engagement Agreement Agreement”) with H.C Wainwright & Company, LLC, as placement agent (“HCW”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay HCW an aggregate cash fee equal to 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the offerings and issue HCW common stock purchase warrants to purchase up to 1,760,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate at an exercise price of $1.25. The warrants were recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815.

Redemption Rights

 

After (i) the earlier of (1) the receipt of stockholder approval and (2) the date that is 90 days following the Original Issue Date (the date of the first issuance of any shares of the Preferred Stock regardless of the number of transfers of any particular shares of Preferred Stock and regardless of the number of certificates which may be issued to evidence such Preferred Stock) and (ii) before the date that is 120 days after the Original Issue Date (the “Redemption Period”), each Holder shall have the right to cause the Company to redeem all or part of such Holder’s shares of Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to 105% of the Stated Value.

 

As a result, the Preferred Stock were recorded separately from stockholders’ equity because they are redeemable upon the occurrence of redemption events that are considered not solely within the Company’s control.

 

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company redeemed for cash at a price equal to 105% of the $1,000 stated value per share all of its 11,000 outstanding shares of Series O Preferred Stock and its 11,000 Series P Preferred Stock. The total redemption amount was $23.1 million. As a result, all shares of the Series O Preferred Stock and Series P Preferred Stock have been retired and are no longer outstanding.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized approximately $3.0 in deemed dividends related to the Preferred Stock in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and the condensed consolidated statements of changes in redeemable preferred stock and stockholders’ equity.

Legal Proceedings

 

In the past, in the ordinary course of business, the Company actively pursued legal remedies to enforce its intellectual property rights and to stop unauthorized use of our technology. Other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, we know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against us.

 

Risks and Uncertainties - COVID-19

 

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for drug candidates, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The COVID-19 pandemic has slowed down some drug development efforts and has slowed the acquisition of new drugs. However, the impact of the pandemic and ensuing lockdowns are easing. The process of drug development and further acquisitions is now continuing. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

You should read this discussion together with the Financial Statements, related Notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. The following discussion contains assumptions, estimates and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These risks could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. All references to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to Aikido Pharma Inc., a Delaware corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise.

 

Overview

 

AIkido Pharma Inc. was initially formed in 1967 and is currently a biotechnology company with a diverse portfolio of small-molecule anti-cancer therapeutics in development. The Company’s platform consists of patented technology from leading universities and researchers and our innovative therapeutic drug platform is currently being advanced through strong collaborations with world-renowned educational institutions, including the University of Texas at Austin, the University of Maryland, Baltimore and Wake Forest University. Our diverse pipeline of therapeutics includes therapies for pancreatic cancer, acute myeloid leukemia (“AML”) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (“ALL”). The Company is also developing broad-spectrum antiviral compounds with the potential to inhibit replication of multiple viruses including Influenza virus, SARS-CoV (coronavirus), MERS-CoV, Ebolavirus and Marburg virus.

 

The Company previously focused its efforts on owning, developing, acquiring and monetizing intellectual property assets. Since May 2016, the Company has received limited funds from its intellectual property monetization. In addition to its patent monetization efforts, since the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company has been transitioning to focus its efforts as a technology and biotechnology development company. These efforts have focused mainly on biotechnology research and development.

 

Outside of the biotechnology space, the Company has put capital into a series of small investments in private companies that are expected to go public in next 24 months. These investments include, but are not limited to, an investment in Tevva Motors, an electric truck producer, a space with recent Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN) IPO. Additionally, the Company has invested in Kerna Health, a growing tele-health business with recurring revenue and large contract backlog, as well an investment in Kaya Holding Corp., a holding company with a portfolio of wholly-owned subsidiaries focused on emerging technologies and social networking for cannabis enthusiasts. The Company’s investments now also include interests in privately-held companies Discord, Inc., a social communications platform provider that is particularly popular with gamers; Thrasio, LLC, an aggregator of private brands of top Amazon businesses and direct-to-consumer brands; Automation Anywhere, Inc. a provider of business automation solutions, and Anduril Industries, Inc., a defense products company.

As a result of the Company’s biotechnology research development and associated investments and acquisitions, our business portfolio now focuses on the treatment of three different cancers, including pancreatic cancer, AML and ALL. DHA-dFdC, our pancreatic drug candidate developed at the University of Texas at Austin (“UTA”), is a new compound that we hope will become the next generation of chemotherapy treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer. DHA-dFdC is designed to overcome tumor cell resistance to current chemotherapeutic drugs and is well tolerated in preclinical toxicity tests. Preliminary studies have also indicated that DHA-dFdC inhibits pancreatic cancer cell growth in culture (up to 100,000-fold more potent that gemcitabine, a current standard therapy), has documented efficacy against pancreatic tumors in a clinically relevant transgenic mouse model and has demonstrated activities against other cancers, including leukemia, lung and melanoma. Ultimately, we plan to develop DHA-dFdC for oral and intravenous administration in a solid lipid nanoparticle carrier matrix, which has also been licensed from UTA, and is intended to be a second-line treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer. The Company has entered into an agreement with Parimer Scientific, which is working with other third parties, to assist in researching, developing and optimizing the manufacturing process of the active ingredient, formulating the dosage formulation and performing drug stability tests. The Company’s license with UTA (the “License”) is a royalty-bearing exclusive license that, unless terminated earlier, continues until the last date of expiration or termination of the patent rights granted under the License (the “Patent Rights”). With regard to DHA-dFdC, the Patent Rights include two issued U.S. Patents, several filed U.S. patent applications and an application filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) that is currently being prosecuted to secure rights in foreign countries. So far, two patents have issued, U.S. Patent No. 10,463,684 (the “684 Patent”) and U.S. Patent No. 11,219,633 (the “633 Patent”), which contain claims covering the compound DHA-dFdC. Assuming all maintenance fees are timely paid, the 684 Patent is expected to expire on October 27, 2035 and the 633 Patent is expected to expire on May 28, 2035. The Company’s license with UTA also covers a U.S. provisional patent application relating to the solid lipid nanoparticle carrier matrix for the drug, which was filed on June 6, 2019. In June of 2020, at the request of the Company, UTA filed both a U.S. non-provisional utility patent application as well as a PCT application relating to the lipid nanoparticle carrier matrix claiming the June 6, 2019 priority date of the provisional application. The PCT application has now entered the national phase in Europe, China and India. Patent prosecution on all pending patent applications is currently underway. The Company is currently engaged in research and development activities related to the manufacture of DHA-dFdC, which have thus far confirmed the critical chemical steps required for the manufacturing and scalability of the process. In collaboration with our contract manufacturing organization, Parimer Scientific, we are currently optimizing the manufacturing procedure for DHA-dFdC. Our manufacturing activities were initially delayed several months due to COVID-19 because Parimer was recruited by the U.S. and South Carolina governments to manufacture hand sanitizer for use in hospitals. For that reason, our manufacturing activities did not begin in earnest until the beginning of the third quarter of 2020. Once manufacturing began, shipping delays due to the pandemic further slowed progress. Further delay resulted from the inherent difficulty in producing scalable quantities of the key intermediate compound in the process. Despite these delays, we now have successfully replicated the synthesis as reported in the literature, have developed a new procedure for the production of the key intermediate on a large scale, and are currently optimizing the procedure to ensure that incorporation of our new procedure into the overall manufacturing process will result in levels of DHA-dFdC on an acceptably large scale. In tandem, the Company will also develop the solid lipid nanoparticle delivery system containing DHA-dFdC to optimize the manufacturing process for size and consistency of the particles. We plan to then develop the drug formulation for oral and intravenous delivery via the solid lipid nanoparticles for use in future animal testing. We do not currently have FDA approval, which will eventually be required to begin administering DHA-dFdC to patients as part of any clinical trials. Animal studies will be a necessary prerequisite to filing an Investigational New Drug Application (“IND”) with the FDA. Depending upon the success of the animal studies, the Company’s development activities will also include preparing the IND for submission to the FDA. The Company’s formulation is a new chemotherapy oral dosage form “repurposing” the chemotherapeutic agent gemcitabine, which we believe enables it to be developed for use in patients following a special regulatory pathway codified in Section 505(b)(2) of the FDA rules. Section 505(b)(2) was enacted to enable sponsors to seek New Drug Application (“NDA”) approval for novel repurposed drugs without the need for such sponsors to undertake certain time consuming and expensive safety studies. Proceeding under this regulatory pathway, we hope to be able to rely upon all of the publicly available safety and toxicology data with respect to gemcitabine in our FDA submissions. We believe that this path will dramatically reduce the required clinical development efforts, costs and risks as compared to what would be required of us if we were required to conduct the entire scope of trials required for new chemical entities that are not eligible to be reviewed pursuant to the Section 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway. We estimate that by using the Section 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway, the clinical development process may be several years shorter than is required for a new chemical entity, and the FDA approval process may be six to nine months shorter than the typical eighteen-month period, which we believe may result in lower development costs and shorter development time. As of the date hereof, we have not submitted an IND or an NDA to the FDA. Our AML and ALL compounds, developed at Wake Forest University, are targeted therapeutics designed to overcome multiple resistance mechanisms observed with the current standard of care. In addition, we are constantly seeking to grow our pipeline to treat unmet medical needs in oncology.

In addition, the Company owns an exclusive world-wide license to patented technology from the University of Maryland Baltimore (“UMB”). Our license is for a broad-spectrum antiviral drug platform. The licensed technology is a broadly acting pan-viral inhibitory compound with efficacy against multiple viral pathogens. The technology works to inhibit replication of multiple viruses including Influenza virus, SARS-CoV (coronavirus), MERS-CoV, Ebolavirus and Marburg virus. The technology is covered by two patent applications already on file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The Company’s license covers two U.S. provisional applications, which were consolidated and timely filed as a PCT application on June 5, 2020, commencing patent prosecution. Any patents issued from this application are expected to expire 20 years later, on June 5, 2040, unless the term is extended by the patent office. The PCT application describing the technology to which the Company is licensed was published on December 12, 2020 by the World Intellectual Property Organization under International Publication Number WO 2020/247860 A1. The PCT application has now entered the national phase in the USPTO (U.S. Application Serial No. 17/616,586) and is currently under active prosecution. The Company’s license has been amended to cover a second PCT application, which was published on June 9, 2022 by the World Intellectual Property Organization under International Publication Number WO 2022/120207 A1. Currently, the Company and UMB are collaborating to identify chemical structures that are as effective as, or more effective than, the lead compounds covered in the PCT application. The UMB inventors are Drs. Matthew Frieman, Alexander MacKerell and Stuart Watson. The Company has also executed a Sponsored Research Agreement with UMB to support the development of the technology.

 

Effective March 23, 2020, and as amended and restated on November 24, 2020, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Co. entered into a rights agreement (the “Rights Agreement”) The Rights Agreement provides each stockholder of record a dividend distribution of one “right” for each outstanding share of common stock. Rights become exercisable at the earlier of ten days following: (1) a public announcement that an acquirer has purchased or has the right to acquire 4.99% or more of our common stock, in connection with, (x) the Company consolidating, or merging into any other person, (y) any person consolidates or merges with or into the Company or (z) the Company sells or otherwise transfers to any person or persons, in one or more transactions, assets or earning power aggregating 50% or more of the assets or earning power of the Company, or (2) the commencement of a tender offer which would result in an offer or beneficially owning 10% or more of our outstanding common stock. All rights held by an acquirer or offer or expire on the announced acquisition date, and all rights expire at the close of business on March 23, 2023, subject to further extension. Each right entitles a stockholder to acquire, at a price of $5.00 per one one-thousandth of a share of our Series A preferred stock, subject to adjustments, which carries voting and dividend rights similar to one share of our common stock. The purchase price of the preferred stock fractional amount is subject to adjustment for certain events as described in the Rights Agreement. At the discretion of a majority of the Board and within a specified time period, we may redeem all of the rights at a price of $0.0001 per right. The Board may also amend any provisions of the Rights Agreement prior to exercise.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our critical accounting policies are disclosed in our annual report on Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and there have been no material changes to such policy or estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if:

 

it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and
   
changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have material impact in our results of operations or financial condition.

 

While we base our estimates and judgments on our experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.

Results of Operations

 

Three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to three months ended June 30, 2021

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred a loss from operations of approximately $2.3 million, as compared to $2.8 million during the comparable prior year period. The decrease in loss was primarily attributed to $81,000 decrease in in general and administrative expenses, $0.3 million decrease research and development expense, and $91,000 decrease in research and development expense related to development of our license technology.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, other expense was approximately $2.8 million as compared to other income of approximately $1.4 million during the comparable prior year period. The increase in other expense was primarily attributed to a $0.3 million decrease in the change in fair value of investment and $4.0 million increase in loss on marketable securities.

 

Six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to six months ended June 30, 2021

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred a loss from operations of approximately $6.1 million, as compared to $5.1 million during the comparable prior year period. The increase in loss was primarily attributed to $0.5 million increase in in general and administrative expenses and $1.7 million increase research and development expense, and was partially offset by $1.1 million decrease in research and development expense related with license acquisition.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, other expense was approximately $2.5 million as compared to other expense of approximately $0.2 million during the comparable prior year period. The increase in other expense was primarily attributed to a $3.2 million decrease in loss on marketable securities, and was partially offset by $0.7 million increase in the change in fair value of investment.

 

The Company experienced very little or no revenue in the last two years and we don’t expect any revenue until a biotechnology product is fully developed which may not occur for many years.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We continue to incur ongoing administrative and other expenses, including public company expenses, in excess of corresponding (non-financing related) revenue. While we continue to implement our business strategy, we intend to finance our activities through:

 

managing current cash and cash equivalents on hand from our past debt and equity offerings;
   
seeking additional funds raised through the sale of additional securities in the future;
   
seeking additional liquidity through credit facilities or other debt arrangements; and
   
increasing revenue from its patent portfolios, license fees and new business ventures.

 

Our ultimate success is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing and generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis. Our business will require significant amounts of capital to sustain operations and make the investments it needs to execute its longer-term business plan to support new technologies and help advance innovation. Our working capital amounted to approximately $60.7 million at June 30, 2022. We will need to obtain additional debt or equity financing, especially if we experience downturns in our business that are more severe or longer than anticipated, or if we experience significant increases in expense levels resulting from being a publicly-traded company or operations. If we attempt to obtain additional debt or equity financing, we cannot assume that such financing will be available to the Company on favorable terms, or at all.

 

The Company plans to pursue its plans regarding research and development of our two pre-clinical products which will require resources beyond those currently, ultimately requiring third party capital. During this time, the Company does not expect to generate revenue and there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date of this filing. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, and 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 outcome of this uncertainty.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities - For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net cash used in operations was approximately $5.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The cash used in operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily resulted from a net loss of $8.6 million and change in fair value of long-term investment of $1.4 million and is partially offset by change in fair value of short-term investment of $1.6 million and unrealized loss on marketable securities of $2.3 million. The cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily resulted from a net loss of $5.3 million and $1.1 million realized gain on marketable securities, and partially offset by $1.4 million unrealized loss on marketable securities and $1.1 million research and development expense related with license acquired.

 

Cash Flows from Investing Activities - For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net cash used in investing activities was approximately $15.3 million and $70.4 million, respectively. The cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily resulted from our purchase of marketable securities of $27.5 million, purchase of promissory notes of $1.6 million and purchase of investments of $14.6 million, partially offset by our sale of marketable securities of $28.3 million since we invest excess cash into marketable securities until additional cash is needed. The cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily resulted from our purchase of marketable securities of $86.5 million, funds to deposit accounts of $4.5 million (net of fee) and purchase of convertible note of $2.0 million, partially offset by our sale of marketable securities of $23.2 million since we invest excess cash into marketable securities until additional cash is needed.

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities - Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $15.3 million, which reflects the cost for redemption of Series O and Series P Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock of $23.1 million and cost for purchase of treasury stock of $1.5 million, partially offset by net proceeds of $19.0 million from investors in exchange of issuance of issuance of Series O and Series P Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $78.1 million, which reflects the net proceeds of $78.0 million from investors in exchange of issuance of common stock and warrants and net proceeds of $84,000 from the exercise of common warrants.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.

 

The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

With respect to the quarter ended June 30, 2022, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2022 due to the material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. We have a lack of segregation of duties, and a lack of controls in place to ensure that all material transactions and developments impacting the financial statements are reflected. The Company is working to change internal controls to address material weaknesses and adding additional employees as part of a plan to discuss with FINRA.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022 which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
