Note 1 – Business Organization and Nature of Operations

Hancock Jaffe Laboratories, Inc. (“Hancock Jaffe” or the “Company”) develops and sells biological tissue solutions to treat patients with coronary, vascular, end stage renal and peripheral arterial diseases in the United States and Europe. Hancock Jaffe was incorporated in the State of Delaware on December 22, 1999.

The Company develops and manufactures implantable cardiovascular bioprosthetic devices for patients with cardiovascular disease, peripheral arterial and venous disease, and end stage renal disease, and has manufactured and developed the following medical devices that have, or are in the process of seeking Class III U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval:

	●	ProCol® Vascular Bioprosthesis;

	●	Bioprosthetic Heart Valve;

	●	Coronary Artery Bypass Graft, an “off the shelf” device, Coreograft™ and

	●	Bioprosthetic Venous Valve, the VenoValve™.

The Company also realizes sub-contract manufacturing and royalty revenue from sales of the ProCol® Vascular Bioprosthesis for hemodialysis patients with end stage renal disease, which has been approved by the FDA, as well as revenue from research and development services performed on behalf of Hancock Jaffe Laboratory Aesthetics, Inc. (“HJLA”), pursuant to a Development and Manufacturing Agreement dated April 1, 2016.

On October 31, 2017, our Board of Directors approved a 1 for 2 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, which was effected on December 14, 2017. Per share and share amounts presented herein have been adjusted for all periods presented to give retroactive effect to the aforementioned stock splits.

Note 2 - Initial Public Offering

On May 30, 2018, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 relating to its initial public offering of its common stock (the “IPO”) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company completed its initial public offering of 1,500,000 units (the “Units”) at $5.00 per unit on June 4, 2018, each consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock with an exercise price of $6.00 per share. Aggregate gross proceeds from the IPO were $7,500,000, before underwriting discounts and commissions.

In connection with the IPO, on June 1, 2018, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Restated Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Restated Bylaws”). The Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders previously approved the Restated Certificate and the Restated Bylaws to be effective immediately prior to the closing of the IPO.

HANCOCK JAFFE LABORATORIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

On June 8, 2018, the underwriters notified the Company of their exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional 225,000 Units (the “Additional Units”) to cover over-allotments. On June 12, 2018, the underwriters purchased the Additional Units at the IPO price of $5.00 per Unit, generating $1,125,000 in gross proceeds before underwriting discounts and commissions.

Pursuant to the Restated Certificate, the Company is authorized to issue an aggregate of 60,000,000 shares of stock, of which 50,000,000 shares are designated as common stock, and 10,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock (see Note 9 – Temporary Equity and Stockholders’ Equity (Deficiency)).

Note 3 – Going Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plan

The accompanying 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 financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss of $9,792,900 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and had an accumulated deficit of $45,312,719 at June 30, 2018. Cash used in operating activities was $3,166,481 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The aforementioned factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the issuance date of the financial statements.

As of June 30, 2018, Hancock Jaffe had a cash balance of $5,942,424 and working capital of $3,513,936.

The Company expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and will need to raise additional capital to sustain its operations, pursue its product development initiatives and penetrate markets for the sale of its products.

Historically, the Company has been successful in raising funds to support its capital needs. Management believes that the Company has access to capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means; however, the Company cannot provide any assurance that it will be able to raise additional capital or obtain new financing on commercially acceptable terms. Such a plan could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, and ultimately the Company could be forced to discontinue its operations, liquidate and/or seek reorganization in bankruptcy. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 4 – Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete 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 financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2018, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Form S-1/A filed with the SEC on May 30, 2018. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions include the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets, and the valuation of warrants and derivative liabilities.

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred offering costs, which primarily consist of direct, incremental professional fees relating to pending initial public offerings, are capitalized within non-current assets and are offset against the proceeds upon the consummation of the offering. Deferred offering costs of $2,554,848, consisting primarily of legal, accounting and underwriting fees, were charged to additional paid in capital upon the consummation of the IPO on June 4, 2018.

Investments

Equity investments over which the Company exercises significant influence, but does not control, are accounted for using the equity method, whereby investment accounts are increased (decreased) for the Company’s proportionate share of income (losses), but investment accounts are not reduced below zero.

The Company holds a 28.5% ownership investment, consisting of founders’ shares acquired at nominal cost, in Hancock Jaffe Laboratory Aesthetics, Inc. (“HJLA”). To date, HJLA has recorded cumulative losses. Since the Company’s investment is recorded at $0, the Company has not recorded its proportionate share of HJLA’s losses. If HJLA reports net income in future years, the Company will apply the equity method only after its share of HJLA’s net income equals its share of net losses previously incurred.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as 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. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1	Quoted prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities trading in active markets.

Level 2	Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quotable prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar valuation techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Financial instruments, including accounts receivable and accounts payable are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s other financial instruments include notes payable, the carrying value of which approximates fair value, as the notes bear terms and conditions comparable to market for obligations with similar terms and maturities. Derivative liabilities are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.

Preferred Stock

The Company applies the accounting standards for distinguishing liabilities from equity under U.S. GAAP when determining the classification and measurement of its Series A and Series B Preferred Stock (together, the “Preferred Stock”). Preferred stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable preferred stock (including preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, preferred stock is classified as permanent equity. As of the issuance date, the carrying amount of the Preferred Stock was less than the redemption value. If the Company were to determine that redemption was probable, the carrying value would be increased by periodic accretions such that the carrying value would equal the redemption amount at the earliest redemption date. Such accretion would be recorded as a preferred stock dividend (see Note 9 – Temporary Equity and Stockholders’ Equity (Deficiency)).

Derivative Liabilities

Derivative financial instruments are recorded as a liability at fair value and are marked-to-market as of each balance sheet date. The change in fair value at each balance sheet date is recorded as a change in the fair value of derivative liabilities on the statement of operations for each reporting period. The fair value of the derivative liabilities was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation, incorporating observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates. The Company reassesses the classification of the financial instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the financial instrument is marked to market and reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.

On June 4, 2018, in connection with the Company’s IPO, all of its previously issued convertible notes were converted and paid in full (as discussed in Note 6 - Convertible Notes and Convertible Note – Related Party), and the embedded conversion options and warrants no longer qualified as derivatives; accordingly, the derivative liabilities were remeasured to fair value on June 4, 2018 and the fair value of derivative liabilities of $3,594,002 was reclassified to additional paid in capital (see Fair Value of Financial Instruments, above).

The Company recorded a gain (loss) on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $227,279 and $191,656 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and $22,147 and $(1,622) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

Convertible Notes

The convertible notes payable discussed in Note 6 – Convertible Notes and Convertible Note – Related Party, had a conversion price that could be adjusted based on the Company’s stock price, which resulted in the conversion feature being recorded as a derivative liability and a debt discount. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense over the life of the respective note, using the effective interest method.

On June 4, 2018, principal of $10,000 owed on the Convertible Notes was paid in cash, and all of the remaining principal and interest owed pursuant to the Convertible Notes were converted into common stock in connection with the Company’s IPO. The conversion of the Convertible Notes was deemed to be a debt extinguishment; accordingly, the warrant and embedded conversion option derivative liabilities were remeasured to fair value on June 4, 2018 and reclassified to additional paid in capital (See Derivative Liabilities, above).

Net Loss per Share

The Company computes basic and diluted loss per share by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Net loss income attributable to common stockholders consists of net loss, adjusted for the convertible preferred stock deemed dividend resulting from the 8% cumulative dividend on the Preferred Stock and the beneficial conversion feature recorded in connection with the conversion of the Preferred Stock (see Note 9 – Temporary Equity and Stockholders’ Equity (Deficiency).

Basic and diluted net loss per common share are the same since the inclusion of common stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of warrants and options, plus the conversion of preferred stock or convertible notes, in the calculation of diluted net loss per common shares would have been anti-dilutive.

The following table summarizes net loss attributable to common stockholders used in the calculation of basic and diluted loss per common share:

	For the Three Months Ended						For the Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,

Revenue Recognition

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Principal versus Agent Considerations”, in April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” and in May 9, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, or ASU 2016-12. This update provides clarifying guidance regarding the application of ASU No. 2014-09 - Revenue From Contracts with Customers which is not yet effective. These new standards provide for a single, principles-based model for revenue recognition that replaces the existing revenue recognition guidance. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 until annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. It has replaced most existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The ASU may be applied retrospectively to historical periods presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company adopted Topic 606 using a modified retrospective approach and will be applied prospectively in the Company’s financial statements from January 1, 2018 forward. Revenues under Topic 606 are required to be recognized either at a “point in time” or “over time”, depending on the facts and circumstances of the arrangement, and will be evaluated using a five-step model. The adoption of Topic 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, at initial implementation nor will it have a material impact on an ongoing basis.

The Company recognizes revenue when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenue is recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of contract with customer; (ii) determination of performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The following table summarizes the Company’s revenue recognized in the accompanying condensed statements of operations:

	For the Three Months Ended				For the Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Product sales	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	152,400
Royalty income		28,963		38,800		60,028		66,708
Contract research - related party		54,400		-		54,400		-
Total Revenues	$	83,363	$	38,800	$	114,428	$	219,108

Revenue from sales of products is recognized at the point where the customer obtains control of the goods and the Company satisfies its performance obligation, which generally is at the time the product is shipped to the customer. Royalty revenue, which is based on resales of ProCol Vascular Bioprosthesis to third-parties, will be recorded when the third-party sale occurs and the performance obligation has been satisfied. Contract research and development revenue is recognized over time using an input model, based on labor hours incurred to perform the research services, since labor hours incurred over time is thought to best reflect the transfer of service.

Information on Remaining Performance Obligations and Revenue Recognized from Past Performance

Information about remaining performance obligations pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less is not disclosed. The transaction price allocated to remaining unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations with an original expected duration exceeding one year was not material at June 30, 2018.

Contract Balances

The timing of our revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by our customers. A receivable is recorded when revenue is recognized prior to payment and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, deferred revenue is recorded until the performance obligations are satisfied. The Company had deferred revenue of $49,000 and $103,400 as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, related to cash received in advance for contract research and development services. The Company expects to satisfy its remaining performance obligations for contract research and development services and recognize the deferred revenue over the next twelve months.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. The fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and recognized over the period services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Forfeitures of unvested stock options are recorded when they occur.

Concentrations

The Company maintains cash with major financial institutions. Cash held in United States bank institutions is currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. There were aggregate uninsured cash balances of $5,692,424 at June 30, 2018. There were no cash balances in excess of federally insured amounts at December 31, 2017.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, all of the Company’s revenues from continuing operations were from the sub-contract manufacture of product to for LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. (“LeMaitre”), and royalties earned from the sale of product by LeMaitre, with whom the Company entered a Post-Acquisition Supply Agreement effective March 18, 2016. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, 35% and 52% of the Company’s revenues from continuing operations were from royalties earned from the sale of product by LeMaitre. The Company did not recognize any subcontract manufacturing revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, 65% and 48%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues were earned from contract research and development services performed for HJLA.

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated events that have occurred after the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements were issued. Based upon the evaluation and transactions, the Company did not identify any other subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements, except as disclosed in Note 10 - Subsequent Events.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 will also require new qualitative and quantitative disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2016-02 and its impact on its financial statements

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (Topic 230)” (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2016-15 requires adoption on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case the Company would be required to apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718); Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments in this ASU provide guidance that clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as modifications. If the value, vesting conditions or classification of the award changes, modification accounting will apply. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

On June 20, 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies accounting for share-based payment transactions resulting for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard was adopted effective April 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach; however, the Company did not identify or record any adjustments to the opening balance of retained earnings on adoption. The new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Convertible Notes

During the period from June 15, 2017 through December 7, 2017, the Company issued senior secured convertible promissory notes aggregating $2,750,500. The Company incurred cash offering costs of $186,100 (including $129,030 of placement agent fees) resulting in net cash proceeds of $2,564,400. The notes, as amended on December 29, 2017 (the “2017 Convertible Notes”), matured on February 28, 2018, and bore interest at 15% per annum. The principal and interest due on the 2017 Convertible Notes were convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $12.00 per share, or (ii) 70% of the highest price per common stock sold in an initial public offering (the “2017 Conversion Price”). The 2017 Convertible Notes included warrants exercisable for the number of shares of common stock equal to 75% of the total shares issuable upon the conversion of the related 2017 Convertible Note, at a price equal to the lesser of (i) $14.40 per share or (ii) 120% of the 2017 Conversion Price. In connection with the sale of the 2017 Convertible Notes, the Company issued five-year warrants to the placement agent for the financing for the purchase of 15,339 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $15.84 per share (see Note 9 – Temporary Equity and Stockholders’ Deficiency – Warrants).

From January 5, 2018 through January 16, 2018, the Company issued senior secured convertible notes (the “2018 Convertible Notes”) in the aggregate amount of $2,897,500. The Company incurred cash offering costs of $293,750 (including $289,750 of placement agent fees) resulting in net cash proceeds of $2,603,750. The 2018 Convertible Notes bore interest at 15% per annum and were due on February 28, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”). The 2018 Convertible Notes were convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $12.00 per share, or (ii) 70% of the highest price per common share sold in an initial public offering (the “2018 Conversion Price”). The 2018 Convertible Notes include five-year warrants exercisable for the number of common stock equal to 50% of the total shares issuable upon the conversion of the 2018 Convertible Note, at a price equal to the lesser of (i) $14.40 per share or (ii) 120% of the 2018 Conversion price. The 2018 Convertible Notes (and accrued interest) are convertible at any time at the option of the holder; however, if the Company consummates an IPO on or prior to the Maturity Date, the principal and interest due under the then-outstanding 2018 Convertible Notes will be automatically converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. In connection with the sale of the 2018 Convertible Notes, the Company agreed to issue a five-year warrant to the placement agent for the financing for the purchase of 24,146 shares of common stock, exercisable at a price equal to the 110% of the greater of (i) the price at which the securities are issued, or (ii) the exercise price of the debt holder warrants. The fair value of the conversion option and the warrants issued in connection with the 2018 Convertible Notes had an issuance date value of $1,239,510 and $1,046,763, respectively, and the aggregate of $2,286,273 was recorded as a debt discount and a derivative liability.

The 2017 Convertible Notes and the 2018 Convertible Notes are together, the “Convertible Notes”.

On February 28, 2018, the Convertible Notes were amended such that the maturity date was extended to May 15, 2018, the 2017 Convertible Note warrants became exercisable for the number of shares of common stock equal to 100% of the total shares issuable upon the conversion of the 2017 Convertible Notes and the 2018 Convertible Note Warrants become exercisable for the number of shares of common stock equal to 75% of the total shares issuable upon the conversion on the 2018 Convertible Notes. The amendment of the Convertible Notes was deemed to be a debt extinguishment and, as a result, during the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized a $1,524,791 gain on extinguishment of convertible notes payable within the accompanying statement of operations consisting of the extinguishment of $2,420,390 of derivative liabilities associated with the embedded conversion option of the extinguished Convertible Notes, partially offset by the issue date value of additional warrants issued (deemed to be a derivative liability) in the amount of $895,599. Additionally, the embedded conversion option within the re-issued Convertible Notes was deemed to be a derivative liability and the relative fair value was recorded as a discount in the amount of $2,413,079.

On June 4, 2018, principal and interest of $10,000 and $267, respectively, were paid in cash and all remaining principal and accrued interest balances of the Convertible Notes were automatically converted into 1,650,537 shares of common stock upon the closing of the IPO at a conversion price of $3.50 per share. The conversion of the Convertible Notes was deemed to be a debt extinguishment and, as a result, the Company recognized a $43,474 loss on extinguishment of convertible notes payable within the accompanying statement of operations consisting of the fair value of the common stock issued upon the conversion of the Convertible Notes of $8,252,685, less the extinguishment of $5,743,391 of principal and interest converted and $2,465,820 of derivative liabilities associated with the embedded conversion option of the extinguished Convertible Notes.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, interest expense incurred in connection with the Convertible Notes was $105,658 and $6,164, respectively. Interest expense incurred in connection with the Convertible Notes was $305,452 and $6,164 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Series A and Series B Preferred Stock were convertible at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $10.00 and $12.00 per share, respectively, which was reduced to $4.50 and $4.30 per share, respectively, if the conversion resulted from a mandatory IPO conversion. On June 4, 2018, all Series A and Series B Preferred Stock and dividends in arrears of $911,151 and $107,556, respectively, were mandatorily converted into 1,743,231 shares of common stock, upon the completion of the IPO (see Note 2 – Initial Public Offering). In connection with the mandatory conversion of the Preferred Stock, the Company recorded a deemed dividend equal to the number of additional shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock resulting from the reduction in the conversion price upon the mandatory IPO conversion, multiplied times the fair value of the common stock on the commitment date.

Warrants

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company issued five-year warrants (“Investor Warrants”) for the purchase of 1,269,384 shares of common stock with an exercise price equal to the lesser of (i) $12.00 per share, or (ii) 70% of the highest price per common stock sold in an initial public offering, to investors in connection with the sale of the Convertible Notes, and issued five-year warrants for the purchase of 123,285 shares of common stock to with an exercise price equal to 110% of the Investor Warrants exercise price to the placement agent, in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes and as a result of the increase in warrant coverage in connection with the amendment to the Convertible Notes (see Note 6 - Convertible Notes and Convertible Note – Related Party). In connection with the IPO, the exercise price of the warrants issued to investors and the placement agent in connection with the Convertible Notes became fixed at $4.20 per share and $4.62 per share, respectively, pursuant to the terms of the warrants.

Further, in connection with the IPO, warrants for the purchase of 100,570 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were amended such that they became exercisable for the purchase of 116,912 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.30 per share.

On June 18, 2018, the Company issued five-year warrants for the purchase 100,000 shares of common stock to certain consultants. The warrants vested immediately, were exercisable at $5.00 per share and had a grant date value of $179,000 using the Black-Scholes Model pricing model, with the following assumptions used: stock price of $4.93, risk free interest rate of 2.67-2.80%, expected term of 3-5 years, volatility of 42.6% and an annual rate of quarterly dividends of 0%.

Overview

We are a development stage medical device company developing biologic-based solutions that are designed to be life-enhancing for patients with cardiovascular disease, peripheral arterial and venous disease, and end stage renal disease, or ESRD. Each product candidate we are developing is designed to allow vascular and cardiothoracic surgeons to achieve effectiveness while improving current procedures and healthcare for a variety of patients. We are in the process of developing and obtaining U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, approval for the following three product candidates: the Bioprosthetic Heart Valve, which we refer to as BHV, the Bioprosthetic Coronary Artery Bypass Graft, which we refer to as CoreoGraft, and the Bioprosthetic Venous Valve, which we refer to as the VenoValve. We have previously manufactured, developed and obtained FDA pre-market approval for the ProCol Vascular Bioprosthesis, a product for hemodialysis vascular access in patients with ESRD, which we sold to LeMaitre Vascular, Inc., or LMAT, in March 2016.

Each of our product candidates will be required to successfully complete significant clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the product candidate before it will be able to be approved by the FDA. The completion of these clinical trials will require a significant amount of capital and the hiring of additional personnel.

Recent Developments and Trends

Reverse Stock Split

A one-for-two reverse stock split of our common stock was effected on December 14, 2017. With the exception of the securities that are not affected by the reverse stock split, all share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split for all periods presented, unless otherwise indicated.

The 2017 Notes, as amended, were convertible into shares of common stock at a price per share equal to the lesser of $12.00 per share or 70% of the price per share in our initial public offering, bore interest at 15% per annum, payable quarterly, and were due on February 28, 2018.

From January 5, 2018 through January 16, 2018, we issued convertible notes, or the 2018 Notes, in the aggregate principal amount of $2,897,500 for net cash proceeds of $2,603,750. The 2018 Notes were convertible into shares of common stock at a price per share equal to the lesser of $12.00 per share or 70% of the price per share in our initial public offering, bore interest at 15% and were originally due on February 28, 2018. In connection with the issuance of the 2018 Notes, we also issued five-year warrants (the “2018 Investor Warrants”) exercisable for the number of shares of common stock equal to 50% of the total shares issuable upon the conversion of the 2018 Notes.

On February 28, 2018, we amended and restated the 2017 Notes and the 2018 Notes to, among other things, (i) extend the maturity date to May 15, 2018 and (ii) increase the warrant coverage of the 2017 Investor Warrants and the 2018 Investor Warrants to 100% and 75%, respectively, of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the related notes.

On the same date, the entire principal balance of $499,000 and $18,742 of related interest owed in connection with the 2015 Note was converted into 120,405 shares of our common stock and the entire principal balance of $148,905 and $1,648 of related interest owed in connection with the Related Party Note was converted into 35,012 shares of our common stock.

The proceeds from the May Bridge Notes were used for working capital purposes. All of the principal and accrued interest on the May Bridge Notes were paid in full upon the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) on June 4, 2018.

Initial Public Offering

On May 30, 2018, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1/A relating to its initial public offering of its common stock was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company completed its initial public offering of 1,500,000 units (the “Units”) at $5.00 per unit on June 4, 2018, each Unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock at $6.00 per share. Aggregate gross proceeds from the IPO were $7,500,000, before underwriting discounts and commissions.

On June 8, 2018, the underwriters notified the Company of their exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional 225,000 Units (the “Additional Units”) to cover over-allotments.

In connection with the mandatory conversion of the Preferred Stock, the Company recorded a deemed dividend equal to the number of additional shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock resulting from the reduction in the conversion price upon the mandatory IPO conversion, multiplied times the fair value of the common stock on the commitment date.

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Overview

We reported net losses of $5,045,413 and $1,248,912 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, representing an increase in net loss of $3,796,501, or 304%, resulting primarily from an increase in operating expenses of $1,924,599, and an increase in amortization of debt discount of $1,981,845 (see below).

Revenues

Revenues earned during the three months ended June 30, 2018 consist of royalty income and income from contract research – related party of $28,963 and $54,400, respectively. Revenues earned during the three months ended June 30, 2017 were generated through royalty income of $38,800.

Royalty income is earned pursuant to the terms of our March 2016 asset sale agreement with LMAT. The decrease in royalty income results from a decrease in LMAT sales volume for the three months ended June 30, 2018, versus three months ended June 30, 2017. The contract research revenue earned during the three months ended June 30, 2018 is related to research and development services performed on behalf of Hancock Jaffe Laboratory Aesthetics, Inc. (“HJLA”), pursuant to a Development and Manufacturing Agreement dated April 1, 2016.

As a developmental stage Company, our revenue, if any, is expected to be diminutive. The Company may license one or more of its products resulting in royalty revenues.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1,829,099 or 168%, to $2,914,723 from $1,085,624 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase is primarily due to increases in non-cash stock compensation expense of approximately $1,239,000, increases in severance expenses of approximately $300,000 and increases of approximately $385,000 in legal, professional fees and consulting fees during the period.

Research and Development Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, research and development expenses increased by $95,500 or 52%, to $280,419 from $184,919 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase is primarily due to increased labor costs, benefits and supplies and materials associated with research and development activities incurred by us in developing techniques to manufacture the Bioprosthetic Heart Valve and the pediatric bioprosthetic venous valves. We have not manufactured any product for LMAT during 2018, allowing us to increase our research and development activities.

Loss on Extinguishment of Convertible Notes Payable

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of convertible notes of $43,474. On June 4, 2018, upon the consummation of our initial public offering, principal and interest of $2,740,500 and $51,807, respectively, owed in connection with the 2017 Notes, were converted into 802,345 shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share, and principal and interest of $10,000 and $267, respectively was paid in cash. Principal and interest of $2,897,500 and 53,584, respectively, owed in connection with the 2018 Notes, were converted into 848,192 shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share. The conversion of the 2017 Notes and 2018 Notes (together, the “Notes”) was deemed to be a debt extinguishment and, as a result, during the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized a $43,474 loss on extinguishment of convertible notes payable, consisting of the fair value of the common stock issued upon the conversion of the Notes of $8,252,685, less the extinguishment of $5,743,391 of principal and interest converted and $2,465,820 of derivative liabilities associated with the embedded conversion option of the extinguished Notes.

Interest Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, interest expense increased by $96,278, or 614%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2017, due to an increase in the average balance of loans payable outstanding, principally from the issuance of the Notes during the during the period from June 2017 through January 2018.

Amortization of Debt Discount

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, non-cash amortization of debt discount expense increased by $1,981,845 to $2,005,479 from $23,634 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase is related to amortization of debt discount related to the embedded conversion option in the Notes, as well as the warrants issued with the Notes during the period from June 2017 through January 2018.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability

For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we recorded a gain on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $227,279 and $22,147, respectively. Our derivative liabilities are related to warrants issued in connection with our Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock financings, plus warrants issued in connection with the Notes, as well as the embedded conversion options in the Notes.

Deemed Dividend

We recorded a deemed dividend of $3,180,860 and $113,779 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, of which $93,269 and $113,779, respectively, resulted from the 8% cumulative dividend on the Preferred Stock and $3,087,591 and $0, respectively, resulted from the beneficial conversion feature recorded in connection with the conversion of the Preferred Stock (see Recent Developments - Preferred Stock, above).

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

We reported net losses of $9,792,900 and $2,412,562 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, representing an increase in net loss of $7,380,338, or 306%, resulting primarily from increases in operating expenses of $2,289,897, increases in non-cash amortization of debt discount of $6,551,602, partially offset by a $1,481,317 gain on extinguishment of convertible notes payable.

Revenues

Revenues earned during the six months ended June 30, 2018 consist of royalty income and contract research - related party of $60,028 and 54,400, respectively. Revenues earned during the six months ended June 30, 2017 were generated through product sales of the ProCol Vascular Bioprosthesis of $152,400, and royalty income of $66,708. Sale of the ProCol Vascular Bioprosthesis during the six months ended June 30, 2017 resulted from our contract manufacturing supply arrangement with LMAT, which we entered in connection with the sale of the ProCol Vascular Bioprosthesis to LMAT in 2016. There were no orders for product from LMAT during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Royalty income is earned pursuant to the terms of our March 2016 asset sale agreement with LMAT. The increase in royalty income results from royalties earned on LMAT sales for the six months ended June 30, 2018, versus six months ended June 30, 2017.

The contract research revenue is related to research and development services performed on behalf of HJLA, pursuant to a Development and Manufacturing Agreement dated April 1, 2016.

As a developmental stage Company, our revenue, if any, is expected to be diminutive. The Company may license one or more of its products resulting in royalty revenues.

Until any of our product candidates are approved, if at all, our revenue will be substantially dependent upon LMAT’s sales efforts of the ProCol Vascular Bioprosthesis.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Cost of sales were $0 and $188,734 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, consisting primarily of labor costs and the costs of materials used for the sub-contract manufacture of the vascular bioprosthesis. The gross loss on product sales of the ProCol Vascular Bioprosthesis is primarily the result of (i) lower than expected product sales, and (ii) high fixed costs which result from a fixed volume contract with the supplier of our raw materials. We intend to negotiate with suppliers such that during periods of low demand, the suppliers will provide materials that can be used for research and development purposes, however, we may not be successful in these negotiations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $2,026,564 or 95%, to $4,161,731 from $2,135,167 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase is primarily due to increases of approximately $1,239,000 in non-cash stock compensation expense, increases of approximately $573,000 in legal, professional fees and consulting fees and increases in severance expenses of $300,000 during the period.

Research and Development Expenses

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, research and development expenses increased by $263,333 or 102%, to $520,912 from $257,579 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase is primarily due to increased labor costs, benefits and supplies and materials associated with research and development activities incurred by us in developing techniques to manufacture the Bioprosthetic Heart Valve and the pediatric bioprosthetic venous valves. We did not manufacture any product for LMAT during 2018, allowing us to increase our research and development activities.

Net Gain on Extinguishment of Convertible Notes Payable

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a gain on extinguishment of convertible notes of $1,481,317. On February 28, 2018, the Notes were amended such that the maturity date was extended to May 15, 2018, the 2017 Investor Warrants became exercisable for the number of shares of common stock equal to 100% of the total shares issuable upon the conversion of the 2017 Notes, and the 2018 Investor Warrants become exercisable for the number of shares of common stock equal to 75% of the total shares issuable upon the conversion on the 2018 Notes. The amendment of the Notes was deemed to be a debt extinguishment and, as a result, we recognized a $1,524,791 gain on extinguishment of convertible notes payable within the accompanying statement of operations consisting of the extinguishment of $2,420,390 of derivative liabilities associated with the embedded conversion options of the extinguished Notes, partially offset by the value of additional warrants issued (deemed to be a derivative liability) in the amount of $895,599.

Further, on June 4, 2018, upon the consummation of our IPO, principal and interest of $2,740,500 and $51,807, respectively, owed in connection with the 2017 Notes was converted into 802,345 shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share, and principal and interest of $10,000 and $267, respectively was paid in cash. Principal and interest of $2,897,500 and 53,584, respectively owed in connection with the 2018 Notes was converted into 848,192 shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share. The conversion of the Notes was deemed to be a debt extinguishment and, as a result, during the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized a $43,474 loss on extinguishment of convertible notes payable, consisting of the fair value of the common stock issued upon the conversion of the Notes of $8,252,685, less the extinguishment of $5,743,391 of principal and interest converted and $2,465,820 of derivative liabilities associated with the embedded conversion option of the extinguished Notes. The loss on extinguishment partially offset the gain on extinguishment described above.

Interest Expense

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, interest expense increased by $297,488, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017, due to an increase in the average balance of loans payable outstanding, principally from the issuance of the Notes during the period from June 2017 through January 2018.

Amortization of Debt Discount

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, amortization of debt discount expense increased by $6,551,602, to $6,575,236 from $23,634 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase is related to amortization of debt discount related to the embedded conversion option in the Notes, as well as the Warrants issued with the Notes during the period from June 2017 through January 2018.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability

For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we recorded a gain and loss on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $191,656 and $1,622, respectively. Our derivative liabilities are related to warrants issued in connection with our Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock financings, plus warrants issued in connection with the Notes, as well as the embedded conversion options in the Notes.

Deemed Dividend

We recorded a deemed dividend of $3,310,001 and $214,911 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, of which $222,410 and $214,911, respectively, resulted from the 8% cumulative dividend on the Preferred Stock and $3,087,591 and $0, respectively, resulted from the beneficial conversion feature recorded in connection with the conversion of the Preferred Stock (see Recent Developments - Preferred Stock, above).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have incurred losses since inception and negative cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $45,312,719. Since inception, we have funded our operations primarily through our IPO, private placements of equity and convertible debt securities as well as modest revenues from royalties, contract research and sales of the ProCol Vascular Bioprosthesis. As of August 7, 2018, we had a cash balance of $5,271,263.

We measure our liquidity in a variety of ways, including the following:

	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
	(unaudited)
Cash	$	5,942,424	$	77,688
Working capital (deficiency)	$	3,513,936	$	(8,004,171	)

Based upon our working capital as of June 30, 2018, we expect to require additional equity and or debt financing in order to meet our obligations as they become due within one year after the date of this filing and sustain operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We will require significant amounts of additional capital to continue to fund our operations and complete our research and development activities. If we are not able to obtain additional cash resources, we will not be able to continue operations. We will continue seeking additional financing sources to meet our working capital requirements, to make continued investment in research and development and to make capital expenditures needed for us to maintain and expand our business. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, or if we expend capital on projects that are not successful, our ability to continue to support our business growth, continue research and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, or we may have to cease our operations. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock, including the Units sold in our IPO.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we used cash of $3,166,481 and $1,721,709, respectively, in operations. Cash used during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $9,792,900, adjusted for net non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $6,227,790 and by $398,629 of net cash provided by changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities. Cash used during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to our net loss of $2,412,562, adjusted for net non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $372,920, partially offset by $317,933 of net cash provided by changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, there were no cash flows from investing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, cash used in investing activities was $27,365 of which $160,000 represented an issuance of a note receivable to a related party, $31,350 of net advances paid to a related party and $2,265 for purchases of property and equipment partially offset by $166,250 represented cash proceeds received in connection with the asset sale to LMAT.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, cash provided by financing activities was $9,031,217, of which $7,657,427 was provided in connection with net proceeds from our initial public offering, $2,603,750 from the issuance of convertible notes and warrants, $722,500 of proceeds from issuances of notes payable, partially offset by the repayments of notes payable of $1,125,000, repayments of notes payable – related party of $120,864 and payment of initial public offering costs of $706,596. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, cash provided by financing activities was $1,708,476, of which $311,000 was provided with the issuance of a note payable to the then majority stockholder, net proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes of $892,430 and net proceeds from the issuance of Series B preferred stock of $632,900, partially offset by the repayments of notes payable – related party of $87,852 and payment of initial public offering costs of $40,002.

Contractual Obligations

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information requested by paragraph (a)(5) of this Item.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For a description of our critical accounting policies, see Note 4 – Significant Accounting Policies in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (who is our Principal Executive Officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (who is our Principal Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer), of the effectiveness of the design of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2018, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b). Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2018.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting, or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of Controls

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. Controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls 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. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or deterioration in the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On June 18, 2018, we issued 160,000 shares of common stock and 20,000 shares of restricted common stock at $4.99 per share to certain consultants. For these sales of securities, no general solicitation was used, and the Company relied on the exemption from registration available under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, with respect to transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.

On June 18, 2018, we granted warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.93 to certain consultants. For these sales of securities, no general solicitation was used, and the Company relied on the exemption from registration available under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Use of Proceeds from Offering of Registered Securities

On May 30, 2018, our Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (Reg. No. 333-220372) was declared effective by the SEC, and on May 31, 2018, our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Reg. No. 333-225296) became effective upon filing with the SEC. Each such Registration Statement was filed in connection with our IPO, pursuant to which we sold 1,725,000 Units, each consisting of one share of our common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of our common stock, at a price to the public of $5.00 per Unit, which amount includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s option to purchase additional Units. The common stock and warrants comprising each Unit were immediately separable and traded separately. Each warrant is exercisable for a share of our common stock at a price of $6.00 per share. The IPO closed on June 4, 2018 and the underwriters exercised their overallotment option as of June 8, 2018, as a result of which we raised net proceeds of approximately $6.5 million after deducting approximately $750,000 in underwriting discounts, commissions and expenses and approximately $1,222,569 in offering expenses payable by us. Network 1 Financial Securities was the underwriter for the offering. No payments were made by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our common stock or to their associates, or to our affiliates, other than payments in the ordinary course of business to officers for salaries and to non-employee directors as compensation for board or board committee service.
