(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The foregoing unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumption are inherent in the preparation of the Company's financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company's financial position and results of operations.

Operating results for the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.

NOTE 2 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Manhattan Scientifics, Inc. (the "Company" or "Manhattan Scientifics"), a Delaware corporation, was established on July 31, 1992 and has two operating wholly-owned subsidiaries: Metallicum, Inc., ("Metallicum") and Senior Scientific LLC ("Senior Scientific"). On June 12, 2008, the Company acquired Metallicum, Inc. for 15,000,000 shares of Company's common stock. 

Manhattan Scientifics is focused on technology transfer and commercialization of disruptive technologies in the nano-medicine space. The company is presently developing commercial medical prosthetics applications for its ultra-fine grain metals and plans to commercialize the cancer research work and nano-medical applications developed by Senior Scientific, a unit of the Company.

The Company's business model capitalizes on inventions and technology from which profits are intended to be created through licensing. Manhattan Scientifics is dedicated to earning profit for its 8,600 owner-shareholders by identifying, developing, patenting, supporting and marketing technical innovation by harvesting top technology talent to bring game-changing products to market. Manhattan Scientifics assists and acquires early stage technologies and assists entrepreneurial founders and management to stage them to become commercial. Our investment philosophy is defined by our desire to help build innovative companies with exceptional potential. We emphasize novel technologies in the nano-medicine space with the potential to be disruptive and the ability to establish sustainable businesses. We are patient capital with experienced business-building partners who bring the perspective of merchant-bankers not venture capitalists. Our approach to assist scientists to commercialize their work is by providing a forum within which the commercialization process is fostered through partnerships with existing companies (Fortune 1000 or larger). We believe the entrepreneurial scientists and engineers who join us are enticed in part by the offer to potentially create personal success and wealth by virtue of ownership of our publicly traded shares common stock under the symbol MHTX.

On May 31, 2011, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to acquire Senior Scientific and Scientific Nanomedicine, Inc. ("Scientific Nanomedicine" or "SNMI"). We subsequently dissolved Scientific Nanomedicine and transferred all remaining assets to Senior Scientific. The total purchase price was 21,668,000 restricted shares of our common stock (less 7,667,000 shares previously issued pursuant to an option agreement). As a result of this acquisition, we own patented technologies that can use biosafe nanoparticles and sensitive magnetic sensors to detect and measure cancer cells in biopsies or in the human body with the potential to transform how cancer is detected and treated.

ADVANCED METALS

The goal of our licensed proprietary process will be to enable our commercial partners to build super-strength metals and alloys to make products that weigh far less than in the past and without significant cost premiums 

NANOMEDICINE

Our acquisition of Senior Scientific gives us the commercial rights to technology and intellectual property with respect to the detection and monitoring of diseases using nanotechnologies. The technology is intended for the early detection of cancers, quantitative in vivo assessments of tumors, and similar applications with other diseases identifiable by cell surface markers. The technology does not require surgery, biopsy, radioactivity, or exotically expensive instruments. Nanoparticles are introduced to the body, for example, by intravenous injection. A sensitive low magnetic field instrument is used to magnetize and measure the nanoparticles that have bound to the specific targets (e.g., cells of a specific type of cancer). Other tissues, bone, scars, etc. are all transparent to the magnetic fields used, so the technology can be used to image detect and measure tumors in places inaccessible to other tests, and including tumors while they are still small enough to be treatable. The nanoparticles are nontoxic, and the low magnetic field instrument is not harmful or expensive, so the tests can be repeated as needed. 

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Manhattan Scientific, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Metallicum and Senior Scientific. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

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 amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. A significant estimate includes the carrying value of the Company's patents, fair value of the Company's common stock, assumptions used in calculating the value of stock options, depreciation and amortization.

CASH CONCENTRATION:

The Company's cash accounts are federally insured up to $250,000 for each financial institution we hold our accounts in. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had cash balances of $6,030,939 and $2,140,000 exceeding the federally insured limits.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS:

License Agreements

In 2008, the Company obtained licenses to the rights of certain patents regarding nanostructured materials developed by another company as a result of the acquisition of Metallicum. The purchase price paid for these licenses was $305,000, which represented its fair value. The Company obtained an exclusive license on two patents and a non-exclusive license on the third patent. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, accumulated amortization was $217,000 and $194,000, respectively. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

In 2009, the Company entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security LLC for the exclusive use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. The purchase price paid for this license agreement was $33,000 based on the fair market value of 2,000,000 shares of common stock issued. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, accumulated amortization was $22,000 and $20,000, respectively. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to pay an annual license fee of $10,000 starting in February 2010 and, may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

In 2011, the Company acquired Scientific Nanomedicine, Inc. which holds the commercial rights to technology and intellectual property with respect to the early detection of diseases using nanotechnologies. The acquisition of Scientific Nanomedicine, Inc. has been accounted for as an asset purchase since this company had no tangible assets or liabilities and did not have the business inputs and outputs to be considered a business. The purchase price totaling $1,300,000 (fair value of 21,667,000 shares of common stocks issued) has been allocated to in process research and development and is being amortized over its estimated benefit period of 10 years. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, accumulated amortization was $564,000 and $467,000. We subsequently dissolved Scientific Nanomedicine and transferred all remaining assets to Senior Scientific LLC.

REVENUE RECOGNITION:

To date the only revenue generated is from the sale of field technology developed by Metallicum related to the Company's nanotechnology, services provided and sample materials.

Revenue is recognized when the four basic criteria of revenue recognition are met: (i) a contractual agreement exists; (ii) transfer of technology (intellectual property) has been completed or services have been rendered; (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Service revenue is recognized when specific milestones are reached or as service is provided if there are no discernible milestones.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, Pre Codification SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements", which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined 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. The standard also expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value and 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. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The Company designates cash equivalents (consisting of money market funds) and investments in securities of publicly traded companies as Level 1. The total amount of the Company's investment classified as Level 3 is de minimis.

The fair value of the Company's debt as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 approximated their fair value at those times.

Fair value of financial instruments: The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payables approximated fair value as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 because of the relative short term nature of these instruments. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of the Company's debt approximates carrying value.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation based on the fair value of all option grants or stock issuances made to employees or directors on or after its implementation date (the beginning of fiscal 2006), as well as a portion of the fair value of each option and stock grant made to employees or directors prior to the implementation date that represents the unvested portion of these share-based awards as of such implementation date, to be recognized as an expense, as codified in ASC 718. The Company calculates stock option-based compensation by estimating the fair value of each option as of its date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. These amounts are expensed over the respective vesting periods of each award using the straight-line attribution method. Compensation expense is recognized only for those awards that are expected to vest, and as such, amounts have been reduced by estimated forfeitures. The Company has historically issued stock options and vested and non-vested stock grants to employees and outside directors whose only condition for vesting has been continued employment or service during the related vesting or restriction period. The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to nonemployees of the Company is charged to expense, if applicable, in the financial statements.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach. This process involves calculating the temporary and permanent differences between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which would be recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 740, which established financial accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The Company must assess the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not likely, the Company must establish a valuation allowance. Changes in the Company's valuation allowance in a period are recorded through the income tax provision on the consolidated statements of operations.

ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, ASC 740-10 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10, the Company recognized no material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits.

As September 30, 2015, the Company has not fully evaluated its position on its deferred tax assets as a result from historical net losses. As such, there is no certainty the Company may be able to utilize such historical net losses to offset its net income during 2015.

BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

In accordance with FASB ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share," the basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Basic net loss per share excludes the dilutive effect of stock options or warrants and convertible notes. Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock options and warrants. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE 4 – CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS

Capital transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2015:

Capital transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2014:

NOTE 5 –FORMER OFFICERS NOTES PAYABLE

The former Chief Operating Officer has a notes payable balance totaling $450,000 at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

The loan bears interest at 5.5% per annum and was initially due December 31, 2002 and have been mutually extended. Under the terms of the note extension dated December 12, 2007, the loan bears interest at 5% per annum and are now due. The Company has recorded interest expense for notes payable to the former officer of approximately $6,000 and $17,000 for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Accrued interest related to this notes payable approximated $284,000 and $257,000 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively and is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

NOTE 6 – NOTES PAYABLE – OTHER

From October 21, 2011 to April 26, 2012, the Company issued convertible notes for $600,000 (the "Convertible Notes") of which $200,000 was received on October 21, 2011, $100,000 was received on January 31, 2012 and $300,000 was received on April 26, 2012. The holder of the notes has not converted any portion of the notes as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2013. Additionally, the note holder was issued warrants for 6,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock with an exercise price of $0.05 that expire on October 15, 2015 ("Warrants"). During September 2015, the Company and the holder mutually agreed to extend the expiration of the 6,000,000 warrants to October 15, 2018, the rest of the terms of the warrants remained the same. The incremental fair value for the modification of the warrants was valued at $190,000 and recorded to additional paid in capital. The conversion feature to the note payable has been accounted for as an original issue discount approximating $296,000 which has been fully accreted as of December 31, 2012. The warrant associated with the note has been accounted for as a debt discount with an approximate value of $296,000 which has been allocated to the note's fully accreted value of $896,000 (original note amount plus original debt discount) on proportionate basis which amounted to $195,000. The warrant value of $252,000 was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the following assumptions: 2 year term; volatility rate of 134% to 135%; and discount rate of 2.5%. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company has recorded an expense associated with original debt discount and expense associated with the debt discount (warrants) of $422,000. Accordingly, the carrying net value of this note at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 totals $896,000, comprising of $600,000 (original face value) plus the fully accreted original debt discount of $296,000. As of September 30, 2015, the Company recorded a stock payable of $896,000 for the 10,285,714 shares of common stock owed to the convertible note holders and extinguish both the $600,000 face value of the convertible notes and $296,000 of original debt discount. In October 2015, the Company had issued 15,045,513 shares of common stock related to the stock payable.

During 2014 and 2013, the Company issued convertible notes for $2,500,000 through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Senior Scientific, LLC. The convertible notes bear interest at 8%, mature four years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into either: (1) membership interests of Senior Scientific, LLC equal to the quotient of the principal due of the convertible notes divided by $2,500,000 multiplied by 18% of the total equity of Senior Scientific, LLC outstanding as of the date hereof; or (2) the number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to the quotient of the principal and interest payable due of the convertible notes divided by a conversion price of $0.055 per share. The Company may not prepay the convertible notes. In the event of a default and so long as the default exists, interest on the convertible notes will accrue at 10%. The Company must account for all accrued interest on the convertible notes on the first calendar day of each quarter which $-0- and $49,000 has been recorded as accrued interest payable as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had paid the required interest. The conversion feature to the note payable has been accounted for as an original issue discount approximating $1,045,000 which $357,000 has been accreted as of September 30, 2015. The Company has recorded the accreted original issue discount as interest expense totaling $66,000 and $130,000, and $28,000 and $75,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Accordingly, the carrying net value of these notes at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 totals $1,812,000 and $1,566,000, respectively, comprising of $2,500,000 (original face value) plus the unamortized debt discount of $688,000 at September 30, 2015, and unamortized original debt discount of $884,000 at December 31, 2014.

NOTE 7 – TECHNOLOGY SALE AND SUB-LICENSE AGREEMENT

On September 12, 2009, the Company entered into a contract with Carpenter Technology Corp. to sell certain nanostructured metal technologies acquired from Metallicum, Inc, its wholly owned subsidiary, to Carpenter and to provide sub-license rights to Carpenter covering license agreements that the Company has from Los Alamos Laboratories. The agreement has two distinct elements: a sale and services agreement and a sub-license agreement. The first element irrevocably transfers the field technology to Carpenter Technology Corporation and Carpenter many develop or use the technology for its own benefit. Carpenter agrees to pay a sales price of $600,000 and pay royalties for products developed using this technology. In addition, the Company can receive additional service income for assisting Carpenter in the production process. These additional services are elective and do not affect the sale of the technology. The second element of the agreement is a sub-license to Carpenter for patents (the LANL patents) that are licensed by the Company from Los Alamos Laboratories. The sub-license agreement obligates Carpenter to pay MSI a running royalty on the sales of products that require license to the LANL patents but does not have any upfront fee or annual minimum royalties.

The Company recognized the sales revenue upon transfer of the technology and the service income over the term of the agreement. The royalty income will be recognized as products are developed using the field technology or sub-license.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company earned $-0- and $-0-, and $150,000 and $300,000, respectively, and recorded such amount as revenue. The amount received by the Company relates to services provided under the first element of the contract regarding additional services. The Company earned service income for time that a consultant to the Company, Dr. Lowe, made himself available to Carpenter in accordance with the Technology Transfer Agreement. The fees earned pursuant to the agreement with Carpenter are being proportionately recognized as revenue based upon the total fees to be collected over a 42 month period. The 42 month period is based on the time periods described in the Agreement (6 months after effective date), (12 months after effective date), and (each of the first 3 anniversaries of Annuity date where the "Annuity date" is the date of the latter of 18 months after the effective date or the date Manhattan Scientific fully satisfies its duties under of the Agreement).

In January 2013, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with a party granting certain licensing rights to the Company's nanostructured metal technology. As consideration: the Company received $180,000 in January 2013, and will receive $30,000 by June 1, 2013; $30,000 by December 31, 2013; $30,000 by December 1, 2014; and $30,000 upon commercial launch by the party or the latest December 1, 2015. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded the receipt of $-0- and $-0-, and $-0- and $30,000 as revenue.

NOTE 8 – SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND MUTUAL GENERAL RELEASES

On February 11, 2015, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Releases (the "Settlement Agreement") with Carpenter Technology Corporation related to the agreement discussed in Note 7, pursuant to which the parties settled and released each other from any and all liabilities and claims related to the Carpenter Agreements.

Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement and as consideration for the full and final settlement and satisfaction of all claims that the Company has or could assert against Carpenter in connection with the Carpenter Agreements, Carpenter will: (1) pay the Company $8,000,000 within 10 days from the date of the Settlement Agreement; (2) transfer and/or assign to the Company all physical and intellectual property which was the subject matter of the Carpenter Agreements free and clear of all liens and encumbrances; (3) provide the Company with follow on technical assistance; and (4) provide the Company with a complete list of all customers and contacts for same related to the technology which was the subject matter of the Carpenter Agreements. In addition, under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, neither party may disparage the other and the Carpenter Agreements were terminated and rendered null and void. As of the date this filing, the Company has received the $8,000,000 portion of the Settlement Agreement, including the physical and intellectual property. The Company has obtained an independent valuation on the physical property which was estimated at $6,938,000. As such, the Company has recorded income on the appraised value of the physical property totaling $6,938,000 and $8,000,000 cash consideration received as a Gain on Settlement Agreement totaling $14,938,000. The Company has not obtained a valuation report with respect to the value of the intellectual property transferred in this transaction. The value of the transferred assets is depreciated over 5 years. At September 30, 2015, the accumulated depreciation was $694,000.

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In October 2015, the Company issued 15,045,513 shares to note holders for a conversion of notes payable totaling $896,000, including an original issue discount of $296,000. (see Note 4)

OVERVIEW

The Company's goal is to nurture visionary technologies into life changing success stories and Metallicum and Senior Scientific are pursuing that goal.

The Company operates as a technology incubator that seeks to acquire, develop and commercialize life-enhancing technologies in various fields, with emphasis in the areas of nanotechnology. Nanotechnology is the use and manipulation of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. To achieve this goal, the Company continues to identify emerging technologies through strategic alliances with scientific laboratories, educational institutions, scientists and leaders in industry and government. The Company and its executives have a long standing relationship with Los Alamos Laboratories in New Mexico.

TWO BUSINESSES EXIST WITHIN MANHATTAN SCIENTIFICS

Two nanotechnology businesses exist within Manhattan Scientifics Inc; both "units" are wholly-owned subsidiaries, both focused on nanotechnology applications in medicine.

The first (Metallicum Inc.) goal is to demonstrate our business-model, a licensing model, given that we are an inventions commercialization company.

Manhattan's second business is called Senior Scientific LLC, and is at the crossroads of biotechnology and nanotechnology.

Our novel bioimaging and nanomagnetic detection systems have been developed specifically to detect cancer and other diseases earlier and with higher specificity than is currently possible. We have developed proprietary hardware and software for the highly sensitive detection of nanomagnetic particles that can be linked to antibodies for the detection and treatment of cancer and other human diseases—all without the use of ionizing radiation or large magnetic fields.

Our novel technologies make possible the earlier detection of cancer in vivo, the ability to analyze biopsies with greater sensitivity and accuracy, the ability to monitor the therapeutic effectiveness of anticancer treatments—both in humans and in animal models—and allow us to detect cancer recurrence with significantly improved sensitivity. Please see: www.SeniorScientific.com

The technology was developed by Edward R. Flynn, PhD, Senior Scientific's founder and chief scientist, in collaboration with Richard S. Larson, MD, PhD, Executive Vice Chancellor, UNM Health Sciences Center in New Mexico.

In June 2008, we acquired Metallicum, Inc. ("Metallicum") and its licensed patented technology. We entered into a stock purchase agreement with Metallicum, Inc. to acquire all of the outstanding capital in exchange for 15,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock. An additional 15,000,000 shares of our common stock will be payable to Metallicum in the event of meeting certain milestones. At December 31, 2011, one milestone was met. Metallicum was granted an exclusive license by The Los Alamos National Laboratory on patents related to nanostructured metals. In September 2009, we entered into a technology transfer agreement and sale with Carpenter Technology Corporation, ("Carpenter") wherein Carpenter was to fully develop, manufacture and market a new class of high strength metals. On February 11, 2015, the Company and Carpenter entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release pursuant to which the parties provided a full release of one another, Carpenter paid the Company $8,000,000, Carpenter transferred to the Company all intellectual and physical property that was part of the original agreement, Carpenter agreed to provide follow-on technical assistance and Carpenter provided a list of all customers and contacts.

On May 31, 2011, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to acquire Senior Scientific. The total purchase price was 21,668,000 restricted shares of our common stock (less 7,667,000 shares previously issued pursuant to an option agreement). As a result of this acquisition, we own patented technologies that can use biosafe nanoparticles and sensitive magnetic sensors to detect and measure cancer cells in biopsies or in the human body with the potential to transform how cancer is detected and treated.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, significantly all of our revenue was generated by one customer, Carpenter Technology Corporation. We did not have any significant suppliers. On February 11, 2015, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Releases with Carpenter Technology Corporation related to the agreement entered in 2009 with Carpenter Technology Corporation, pursuant to which the parties settled and released each other from any and all liabilities and claims related to the Carpenter Agreements.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2014.

REVENUE. The $-0- of revenue recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased compared to the $158,000 in revenue earned during the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in revenue is primarily due to the fees earned pursuant to the agreement with Carpenter were proportionately recognized as revenue based upon the total fees to be collected over a 42 month period of which during fiscal year ended 2014 was fully earned. The 42 month period is based on the time periods described in the Agreement (6 months after effective date), (12 months after effective date), and (each of the first 3 anniversaries of Annuity date where the "Annuity date" is the date of the latter of 18 months after the effective date or the date Manhattan Scientific fully satisfies its duties under of the Agreement).

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist of consultants, contractors, accounting, legal, travel, rent, telephone and other day to day operating expenses. General and administrative expenses were $1,019,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared with $300,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and Development was $757,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared with $542,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in research and development is due to the design, engineering and construction of the next generation instruments to be used for the MD Anderson Cancer Center, continued expenses working with the University of New Mexico, and continued development on intellectual property related to our nan-technology.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2014.

REVENUE. The $37,000 of revenue recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased compared to the $488,000 in revenue earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in revenue is primarily due to the fees earned pursuant to the agreement with Carpenter were proportionately recognized as revenue based upon the total fees to be collected over a 42 month period of which during fiscal year ended 2014 was fully earned. The 42 month period is based on the time periods described in the Agreement (6 months after effective date), (12 months after effective date), and (each of the first 3 anniversaries of Annuity date where the "Annuity date" is the date of the latter of 18 months after the effective date or the date Manhattan Scientific fully satisfies its duties under of the Agreement).

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist of consultants, contractors, accounting, legal, travel, rent, telephone and other day to day operating expenses. General and administrative expenses were $3,058,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with $1,809,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and Development was $1,937,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with $1,413,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in research and development is due to the design, engineering and construction of the next generation instruments to be used for the MD Anderson Cancer Center, continued expenses working with the University of New Mexico, and continued development on intellectual property related to our nan-technology.

OTHER INCOME AND (EXPENSES). Other income and (expenses) for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $14,385,000, an increase compared to $(208,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in other income was mainly attributed to a gain of $14,938,000 related to a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Releases with Carpenter Technology Corporation, as discussed in Note 8 in the notes to financial statements, whereby we received $8,000,000 in cash and $6,938,000 in independently appraised physical assets as part of the overall consideration of the Settlement Agreement.

NET INCOME (LOSS). Our net income was $9,427,000 for nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to a net loss of $(2,942,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is attributable to the aforementioned factors.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Stockholders' equity totaled $10,196,000 on September 30, 2015 and the working capital surplus was $5,660,000 on such date.

We had an increase of $4,128,000 in cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as a result of cash provided by our operating activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash provided by operating activities was $4,521,000 compared to cash of $(1,727,000) (used in) operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Cash provided in operating activities was primarily as a result of our net income of $9,332,000. There was $138,000 of cash used in financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $2,380,000 cash provided by financing activities during the same period of 2014.

Based upon current projections, our principal cash requirements for the next 12 months consists of (1) fixed expenses, including payroll, investor relations services, public relations services, bookkeeping services, consultant services, and rent; and (2) variable expenses, including technology research and development, milestone payments and intellectual property protection, and additional scientific consultants. As of September 30, 2015, we had $6,656,000 in cash. We believe our current cash position is sufficient to maintain our operations for the next twelve months.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

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 amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. A significant estimate includes the carrying value of our patents, fair value of our common stock, assumptions used in calculating the value of stock options, depreciation and amortization.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:

We assess the impairment of our long-lived assets periodically in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FAS") Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") Topic 10. Whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, we will compare undiscounted net cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets to the carrying amount of those assets. When these undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amounts of the assets, we will record impairment losses to write the asset down to fair value, measured by the discounted estimated net future cash flows expected to be generated from the assets. To date there has been no impairment.

License Agreements

In 2008, the Company obtained licenses to the rights of certain patents regarding nano-structured materials developed by another company as a result of the acquisition of Metallicum. The purchase price paid for these licenses was $305,000, which represents its fair value. The Company obtained an exclusive license on two patents and a non-exclusive license on the third patent. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

In 2009, the Company entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security LLC for the exclusive use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. Under the terms of the agreement the Company is required to pay an annual license fee of $10,000 and, may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

On May 31, 2011, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to acquire Senior Scientific and Scientific Nanomedicine. The total purchase price was 21,668,000 restricted shares of our common stock (less 7,667,000 shares previously issued pursuant to an option agreement. As a result of this acquisition, we own patented technologies that can use biosafe nanoparticles and sensitive magnetic sensors to detect and measure cancer cells in biopsies or in the human body with the potential to revolutionize how cancer is detected and treated.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when the four basic criteria of revenue recognition are met: (i) a contractual agreement exists; (ii) transfer of technology (intellectual property) has been completed or services have been rendered; (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Service revenue is recognized when specific milestones are reached or as service is provided if there are no discernible milestones.

Investments: Available-for-Sale Investments

Investments that we designate as available-for-sale are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). We determine the cost of the investment sold based on the specific identification method. Our available-for-sale investments include Marketable equity securities. We acquire these equity investments for the promotion of business and strategic objectives. We record the realized gains or losses on the sale or exchange of marketable equity securities in gains (losses) on other equity investments, net.

Stock-Based Compensation:

The Company follows the provision of FASB ASC Topic 718 for the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees, directors and non-employees. Additionally, the Company follows the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 "Share-Based Payment" ("SAB 107"), as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 ("SAB 110"), which provides supplemental application guidance based on the views of the SEC. The Company estimates the expected term, which represents the period of time from the grant date that the Company expects its stock options to remain outstanding, using the simplified method as permitted by SAB 107 and SAB 110. Under this method, the expected term is estimated as the mid-point between the time the options vest and their contractual terms. The Company continues to apply the simplified method because it does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected terms due to the limited period of time its equity shares have been publicly traded and the limited number of its options which have so far vested and become eligible for exercise.

The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to our nonemployees is charged to expense, if applicable, in the financial statements. These options vest in the same manner as the employee options granted under each of the option plans as described above.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to include disclosure under this item. 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers concluded as of September 30, 2015 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting discussed immediately below.

Identified Material Weakness

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Management identified the following material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting:

Resources: We had one full-time employee in general management and no full-time employees with the requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting. As a result, there is a lack of proper segregation of duties necessary to insure that all transactions are accounted for accurately and in a timely manner.

Written Policies & Procedures: We need to prepare written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity transactions, and prepare, review and submit SEC filings in a timely manner.

Audit Committee: We do not have, and are not required, to have an audit committee. An audit committee would improve oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

(b) Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company prepared written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity transactions. There were no other changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during this fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to have a materially affect, on our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are subject from time to time to litigation, claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2015, we were not a party to any material litigation, claim or suit whose outcome could have a material effect on our financial statements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information in this Report, the following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating the Company and our business. If you decide to buy our securities, you should be able to afford a complete loss of your investment.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY DEVELOP AND COMMERCIALIZE OUR NEW TECHNOLOGIES WHICH WOULD RESULT IN CONTINUED LOSSES.

We are currently developing new technologies and a commercial product. We have generated our first revenues but we are unable to project when we will achieve regular profitability, if at all. As is the case with any new technology, we expect the development process to continue. We cannot assure that our resources will be able to develop and commercialize our technology fast enough to meet market requirements. We can also not assure that our technology will gain market acceptance and that we will be able to overcome obstacles, such as potential FDA approvals. The failure to successfully develop and commercialize the technologies would result in continued losses and may require us to curtail operations.

THE SUCCESS OF OUR BUSINESS MAY REQUIRE CONTINUED FUNDING. IF WE CANNOT RAISE THE MONEY WE NEED TO SUPPORT OUR OPERATIONS UNTIL WE EARN SIGNIFICANT REVENUES, WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO CURTAIL OR TO CEASE OUR OPERATIONS AND YOU COULD LOSE YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT.

Our ability to develop our business depends upon our receipt of money to continue our operations while we introduce our products and a market for them develops. If this funding is not received as needed, it is unlikely that we could continue our business, in which case you would lose your entire investment. Our ability to access the capital markets has been hindered generally by the general difficult economic climate, beginning in 2008, for small technology concept companies, without significant revenues or earnings.

To the extent that we need additional funding, we cannot assure you that such financing will be available to us when needed, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to curtail the commercialization of our products and possibly cease our operations.

OUR ABILITY TO EFFECTUATE OUR BUSINESS MODEL MAY BE LIMITED, WHICH WOULD ADVERSELY EFFECT OUR BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL CONDITIONS.

Our future performance will depend to a substantial degree upon our ability to effectuate and generate revenues from our licensing and royalty business model. As a result, we may continue to incur substantial operating losses until such time as we are able to generate revenues from the sale or license of our products. There can be no assurance that businesses and customers will adopt our technology and products, or that businesses and prospective customers will agree to pay for or license our products. In the event that we are not able to significantly increase the number of customers that purchase or license our products, or if we are unable to charge the necessary prices or license fees, our financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.

WE MAY FACE STRONG COMPETITION FROM LARGER, ESTABLISHED COMPANIES.

We likely will face intense competition from other companies, both globally and within the United States, in the development of our cancer detection technology and nano-metal technologies, virtually all of which can be expected to have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger installed customer bases and significantly more financial resources and research and development facilities than Manhattan Scientifics. There can be no assurance that developments by our current or potential competitors will not render our proposed products obsolete.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR WE COULD BECOME INVOLVED IN LITIGATION WITH OTHERS REGARDING OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. EITHER OF THESE EVENTS COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS.

We rely on a combination of intellectual property law, nondisclosure, trade secret and other contractual and technical measures to protect our proprietary right. Our success will depend, in part, on our technology's commercial viability and on the strength of our intellectual property rights. However, we cannot assure you that these provisions will be adequate to protect our intellectual property. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States.

Although we believe that our intellectual property does not infringe upon the proprietary rights of third parties, competitors may claim that we have infringed on their products.

We could incur substantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us for alleged infringement of another party's intellectual property rights as well as in enforcing our rights against others, and if we are found to infringe, the manufacture, sale and use of our or our customers' or partners' products could be enjoined. Any claims against us, with or without merit, would likely be time-consuming, requiring our management team to dedicate substantial time to addressing the issues presented. Furthermore, the parties bringing claims may have greater resources than we do.

OUR MANAGEMENT IS ABLE TO EXERCISE SIGNIFICANT INFLUENCE OVER ALL MATTERS REQUIRING SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL.

Our existing directors and executive officers are the beneficial owners of approximately 18% of the outstanding shares of common stock, excluding stock options and warrants. As a result, our existing directors, executive officers, principal shareholders and their respective affiliates, if acting together, would be able to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions. Such concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company.

THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY DECREASE DUE TO FACTORS BEYOND OUR CONTROL.

The trading price of our common stock is subject to significant fluctuations in response to numerous factors, including without limitation:

Moreover, the stock market from time-to-time has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, which have particularly affected the market prices for small technology companies without significant revenues. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. If our shareholders sell substantial amounts of their common stock in the public market, the price of our common stock could fall. These sales also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a price we deem appropriate.

WE HAVE NOT PAID CASH DIVIDENDS AND IT IS UNLIKELY THAT WE WILL PAY CASH DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

We plan to use all of our earnings, to the extent we have significant earnings, to fund our operations. We do not plan to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We cannot guarantee that we will, at any time, generate sufficient surplus cash that would be available for distribution as a dividend to the holders of our Common Stock. You should not expect to receive cash dividends on our Common Stock.

WE MAY NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT CAPITAL TO RUN OUR OPERATIONS.

If we are unable to obtain further financing, it may jeopardize our ability to continue our operations. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity and/or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities could result in dilution to our shareholders and/or increased debt service commitments. If adequate funds are not available, we may be unable to sufficiently develop or maintain our existing operations.

WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO ISSUE ADDITIONAL SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK WITHOUT ASKING FOR SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL, WHICH COULD CAUSE YOUR INVESTMENT TO BE DILUTED.

Our Certificate of Incorporation currently authorizes the Board of Directors to issue up to 950,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. The power of the Board of Directors to issue shares of Common Stock or warrants or options to purchase shares of Common Stock is generally not subject to shareholder approval. Accordingly, any additional issuance of our Common Stock may have the effect of further diluting your investment.

We require substantial working capital to fund our business. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-related or convertible debt securities, those securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our Common Stock. The issuance of additional Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock by our management will also have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our Common Stock.

LIMITED PUBLIC MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK MAY AFFECT OUR SHAREHOLDERS' ABILITY TO SELL OUR COMMON STOCK.

Our Common Stock currently is quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, which is generally considered to be a less efficient market than national exchanges. Consequently, the liquidity of our securities could be impaired, not only in the number of securities which could be bought and sold, but also through SEC regulations, delays in the timing of transactions, difficulties in obtaining price quotations, reduction in security analysts' and the new media's coverage of us, if any, and lower prices for our securities than might otherwise be attained. This circumstance could have an adverse effect on the ability of an investor to sell any shares of our common stock as well as on the selling price for such shares. In addition, the market price of our common stock may be significantly affected by various additional factors, including, but not limited to, our business performance, industry dynamics or changes in general economic conditions.

APPLICABILITY OF "PENNY STOCK RULES" TO BROKER-DEALER SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD HAVE A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON THE LIQUIDITY AND MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

A penny stock is generally a stock that is not listed on national securities exchange and is quoted on the "pink sheets" or on the OTC Bulletin Board, has a price per share of less than $5.00 and is issued by a company with net tangible assets less than $5 million.

The penny stock trading rules impose additional duties and responsibilities upon broker-dealers and salespersons effecting purchase and sale transactions in Common Stock and other equity securities, including determination of the purchaser's investment suitability, delivery of certain information and disclosures to the purchaser, and receipt of a specific purchase agreement before effecting the purchase transaction.

Many broker-dealers will not affect transactions in penny stocks, except on an unsolicited basis, in order to avoid compliance with the penny stock trading rules. When our Common Stock is subject to the penny stock trading rules, such rules may materially limit or restrict the ability to resell our Common Stock, and the liquidity typically associated with other publicly traded equity securities may not exist.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer

The table below reflects shares of common stock we repurchased during the three-months ended September 30, 2015:
