NOTE 1 – Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation (the “Company” or “NeuroOne”), a Delaware Corporation, is an early-stage medical technology company developing comprehensive neuromodulation cEEG and sEEG monitoring, ablation, and brain stimulation solutions to diagnose and treat patients with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, essential tremors, and other brain related disorders.

To date, the Company has recorded no commercial sales and has a limited expense history. The Company is currently raising capital to fund the development of its proprietary technology. The Company received 510(k) clearance from the FDA to market the initial device and expect to submit an application for 510(k) clearance for a second product by end of calendar year 2020.

The Company is based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.

COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States and around the world. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has experienced delays and disruptions in its pre-clinical and clinical trials, as well as interruptions in its manufacturing, supply chain, and research and development operations. The global outbreak of COVID-19 continues to rapidly evolve. In April 2020, given the impact of COVID-19 on the Company, the Company applied for and received loan funding of approximately $83,333 under the PPP. The Company may be required to repay any portion of the outstanding principal that is not forgiven, along with accrued interest, and it cannot provide any assurance that it will be eligible for loan forgiveness, or that any amount of the PPP loan will ultimately be forgiven.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business and pre-clinical and clinical trials will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions and social distancing in the U.S. and other countries, business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken in the U.S. and other countries to contain and treat the disease. The COVID-19 pandemic may also impact the Company’s ability to secure additional financing or its ability to up-list from its current OTC Market (“OTCQB”), and may result in further modifications to its debt agreements. Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2020 and beyond.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The condensed financial statements may not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2019 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed balance sheet at September 30, 2019 was derived from the audited financial statements of the Company.

In December 2019, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, NeuroOne Inc. was merged into NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation. The merger of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary did not have a financial impact to the periods presented. Upon closing of the merger, the Company did not have any remaining entities that required consolidation for financial statement reporting purposes.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

NOTE 2 – Going Concern

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since inception and has negative working capital, negative cash flows from operations, and an accumulated deficit of $30,312,639 as of June 30, 2020. The Company has not established a source of revenues to cover its operating costs, and as such, has been dependent on funding operations through the issuance of debt and sale of equity securities. The Company does not have adequate liquidity to fund its operations without raising additional funds. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this condition. Management intends to continue to seek additional financing to fund operations. However, these actions are not solely within the control of the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds, or the Company’s anticipated operating results are not achieved, management believes planned expenditures may need to be reduced in order to extend the time period that existing resources can fund the Company’s operations. If management is unable to obtain the necessary capital, it may have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company and the development of its technology, or the Company may have to cease operations altogether.

NOTE 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Management’s Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash. The Company’s cash is held by one financial institution in the United States. Amounts on deposit may at times exceed federally insured limits. Management believes that the financial institution is financially sound, and accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to the financial institution. As of June 30, 2020, the Company did have deposits in excess of federally insured amounts by $3,601,479.

Common Stock Valuation

The Company has been utilizing pricing as quoted on the OTC Market as the basis for the fair value of the Company’s common stock since September 30, 2019. Prior to September 30, 2019, the Company utilized methodologies in accordance with the framework of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Technical Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation, to estimate the fair value of its common stock (the “AICPA Valuation Framework”). The valuation methodology included estimates and assumptions that required the Company’s judgment. These estimates and assumptions included a number of objective and subjective factors, including external market conditions affecting the biotechnology industry sector, and the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, such as an offering or sale. Significant changes to the key assumptions used in the valuations would result in different fair values of common stock at each of those valuation dates.

The fair value the Company’s common stock is used as an input into the fair value determination of instruments recorded at fair value and stock option or other equity awards that the Company has issued.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s accounting for fair value measurements of assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the condensed financial statements on a recurring or nonrecurring basis adheres to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

As of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the fair values of cash, prepaid, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these assets or liabilities. The fair value of the convertible notes outstanding during the three and nine month period ended June 30, 2020 were based on both the fair value of our common stock, discount associated with the embedded redemption features, and cash flow models discounted at current implied market rates evidenced in recent arms-length transactions representing expected returns by market participants for similar instruments and are based on Level 3 inputs.

The estimated fair value of the convertible promissory notes of the Company that were outstanding during fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 were based on amortized cost which was deemed to approximate fair value. The fair value of the warrant liability and the premium conversion derivatives associated with the convertible promissory notes outstanding during fiscal 2019 were based on both the estimated fair value of our common stock and cash flow models discounted at the then current implied market rates evidenced in arms-length transactions representing expected returns by market participants for similar instruments during that period and were based on Level 3 inputs.

There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

The fair value of financial instruments measured on a recurring basis is as follows:

The following table provides a roll-forward of the convertible notes, warrant liability and premium debt conversion derivatives measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable level 3 inputs for the nine month periods ended June 30 as follows:

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements, continued (unaudited)

Intellectual Property

The Company has entered into two licensing agreements with major research institutions, which allows for access to certain patented technology and know-how. Payments under those agreements are capitalized and amortized to general and administrative expense over the expected useful life of the acquired technology.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and reduced by accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. The estimated useful life for equipment and furniture ranges from three to seven years and three years for software. Tangible assets acquired for research and development activities and that have alternative use are capitalized over the useful life of the acquired asset. Estimated useful lives are periodically reviewed, and, when appropriate, changes are made prospectively. Software purchased for internal use consists primarily of amounts paid for perpetual licenses to third-party software providers and installation costs. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, asset lives may be adjusted and an impairment assessment may be performed on the recoverability of the carrying amounts. Maintenance and repairs are charged directly to expense as incurred.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets, which consist of licensed intellectual property and property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether or not the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs are recorded as a reduction of the convertible promissory notes when applicable. Amortization of debt issuance costs is calculated using the straight-line method over the term of the convertible promissory notes, which approximates the effective interest method, and is recorded in interest expense in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development expenses may include costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including clinical trial costs, manufacturing costs for both clinical and pre-clinical materials as well as other contracted services, license fees, and other external costs. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities are expensed when the activity is performed or when the goods have been received, rather than when payment is made, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 730, Research and Development. Lastly, de minimis income from the sale of prototype products and related materials is offset against research and development expenses.

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation

Warrant Liability

The Company issued warrants to purchase equity securities in connection with the issuance or amendment of the convertible promissory notes. The Company accounts for these warrants as a liability at fair value when the number of shares is not fixed and determinable. Additionally, issuance costs associated with the warrant liability are expensed as incurred and reflected as interest expense in the accompanying condensed statements of operations. The Company adjusts the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the warrants for any period when pricing protections in future equity financings remain in place, or until such time, if any, as the number of shares to be exercised becomes fixed, at which point the warrants will be classified in stockholders’ (deficit) equity provided that there are sufficient authorized and unissued shares of common stock to settle the warrants and redeem any other contracts that may require settlement in shares of common stock. Any future change in fair value of the warrant liability, when outstanding, is recognized in the condensed statements of operations.

Premium Debt Conversion Derivatives

The Company evaluates all conversion and redemption features contained in a debt instrument to determine if there are any embedded derivatives that require separation from the host debt instrument. An embedded derivative that requires separation is bifurcated from its host debt instrument and a corresponding discount to the host debt instrument is recorded. The discount is amortized and recorded to interest expense over the term of the host debt instrument using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method.  The separated embedded derivative is accounted for separately on a fair market value basis. The Company records the fair value changes of a separated embedded derivative at each reporting period in the condensed statements of operations based on the fair value of its common stock and cash flow models discounted at current implied market rates evidenced in recent arms-length transactions representing expected returns by market participants for similar instruments and are based on Level 3 inputs.

Income Taxes

For the Company, income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax base and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Net Loss Per Share

For the Company, basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

Diluted earnings or loss per share of common stock is computed similarly to basic earnings or loss per share except the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of any common stock equivalents, if dilutive. The Company’s convertible promissory notes, warrants, stock options and restricted stock units while outstanding are considered common stock equivalents for this purpose. Diluted earnings is computed utilizing the treasury method for the warrants, stock options and restricted stock units. Diluted earnings with respect to the convertible promissory utilize the if-converted method. No incremental common stock equivalents were included in calculating diluted loss per share because such inclusion would be anti-dilutive given the net loss reported for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements, continued (unaudited)

The following potential common shares were not considered in the computation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and subsequently amended the guidance relating largely to transition considerations under the standard in January 2017 and July 2018. The objective of this update is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the new standard on October 1, 2019 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s statements of comprehensive loss or statements of cash flows for agreements in place as of the adoption date. As such, the Company did not restate comparative periods and did not recognize any cumulative adjustment to retained earnings on the date of the adoption. The Company elected the short-term lease expedient upon adoption of the standard. See NOTE 4 – Commitments and Contingencies with regard to a new operating lease that commenced after the adoption date on November 1, 2019.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and Derivatives and Hedging, which changes the accounting and earnings per share for certain instruments with down round features. The amendments in this ASU should be applied using a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the beginning of the fiscal year or retrospective adjustment to each period presented and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 for public business entities, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted the new guidance on October 1, 2019, and the new guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements as of the adoption date.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13). The new guidance modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820 as follows:

This guidance is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should all be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. Early adoption is permitted. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of ASU 2018-13 and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance and does not expect that it will have a material impact on its financial statements.

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements, continued (unaudited)

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) which amends the existing guidance relating to the accounting for income taxes. This ASU is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of accounting for income taxes and to improve the consistent application of GAAP for other areas of accounting for income taxes by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this new guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 4 – Commitments and Contingencies

WARF License amendment

The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Exclusive Start-up Company License Agreement (the “WARF License”) with Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (“WARF”) on January 21, 2020, which amended and restated in full the prior license agreement between WARF and NeuroOne, LLC, a predecessor of the Company, dated October 1, 2014, as amended on February 22, 2017, March 30, 2019 and September 18, 2019.

The WARF License grants to the Company an exclusive license to make, use and sell, in the United States only, products that employ certain licensed patents for a neural probe array or thin-film micro electrode array and method. The Company has agreed to pay WARF a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of its product sales pursuant to the WARF License, with a minimum annual royalty payment of $50,000 for 2020, $100,000 for 2021 and $150,000 for 2022 and each calendar year thereafter that the WARF License is in effect. If the Company or any of its sublicensees contest the validity of any licensed patent, the royalty rate will be doubled during the pendency of such contest and, if the contested patent is found to be valid and would be infringed by the Company if not for the WARF License, the royalty rate will be tripled for the remaining term of the WARF License.

WARF may terminate the WARF License if the Company defaults on the payments of amounts due to WARF or fails to timely submit development reports, or breaches any other covenant in the WARF License and fails to remedy such default in ninety (90) days or in the event of certain bankruptcy events involving the Company. WARF may also terminate the WARF License on ninety (90) days’ notice if the Company fails to have commercial sales of one or more FDA-approved products under the WARF License by June 30, 2021. The WARF License otherwise expires by its terms (i) on the date that no valid claims on the patents licensed thereunder remain or (ii) upon the cessation for more than four (4) calendar quarters of the payment, once begun, of earned royalties under certain sections of the WARF License. The Company expects the latest expiration of a licensed patent to occur in 2030.

In addition, WARF reserves the right to grant non-profit research institutions and government agencies non-exclusive licenses to practice and use the inventions of the licensed patents for non-commercial research purposes, and the Company grants WARF a non-exclusive, sub licensable, royalty-free right and license for non-commercial research purposes to use improvements to the licensed patents. In the event that the Company discontinues use or commercialization of the licensed patents or improvements thereon, the Company must grant WARF an option to obtain a non-exclusive, sub-licensable royalty-bearing license to use the improvements for commercial purposes.

Legal 

PMT Litigation

From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In May 2017, NeuroOne received a letter from PMT Corporation (“PMT”), the former employer of Mark Christianson and Wade Fredrickson. PMT claimed that these officers had breached their restrictive covenant obligations with PMT by virtue of their work for NeuroOne and such officer’s prior work during employment with the prior employer, that these officers had breached their confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations to PMT and federal and state law by misappropriating confidential and trade secret information, and that the Company is responsible for tortious interference with contracts. The letter, which purported to attach a noncompete agreement signed by Mr. Fredrickson, demanded that Mr. Fredrickson (who resigned from the Company in June 2017), Mr. Christianson and NeuroOne cease and desist all competitive activities, that Mr. Fredrickson step down from his position and that Mr. Christianson and NeuroOne provide the former employer access to NeuroOne’s systems to demonstrate that it is not using trade secrets or proprietary information nor competing with the former employer.

On March 29, 2018, the Company was served with a complaint filed by PMT adding the Company, NeuroOne and Mr. Christianson to its existing lawsuit against Mr. Fredrickson in the Fourth Judicial District Court of the State of Minnesota. The complaint purported to attach Mr. Fredrickson’s noncompete agreement as Exhibit A. In the lawsuit, PMT claims that Mr. Fredrickson and Mr. Christianson breached their non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disclosure obligations, breached their fiduciary duty obligations, were unjustly enriched, engaged in unfair competition, engaged in a civil conspiracy, tortiously interfered with PMT’s contracts and prospective economic advantage, and breached a covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Against Mr. Fredrickson, PMT also alleges that he intentionally or negligently spoliated evidence, made negligent or fraudulent misrepresentations, misappropriated trade secrets in violation of Minnesota law, and committed the tort of conversion and statutory civil theft. Against the Company and NeuroOne, PMT alleges that the Company and NeuroOne were unjustly enriched and engaged in unfair competition. PMT asked the Court to impose a constructive trust over the shares held by Mr. Fredrickson and Mr. Christianson and to award compensatory damages, equitable relief, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest.

On April 18, 2018, Mr. Christianson, the Company and NeuroOne, Inc. filed a motion for dismissal, which was heard by the Court on October 11, 2018. The motion for dismissal states that: the contract claims against Mr. Christianson fail because his agreement was not supported by consideration; the Minnesota Uniform Trade Secrets Act preempts plaintiff’s claims for unfair competition, civil conspiracy and unjust enrichment; plaintiff fails to state a claim regarding alleged breach of the duties of loyalty and good faith/fair dealing; plaintiff cannot legally obtain a constructive trust; plaintiff has insufficiently pled its tortious interference claims; and Plaintiff has not stated a claim for unfair competition. On January 7, 2019, the judge granted the motion for dismissal with respect to PMT’s claim for breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, and denied the motion for dismissal with respect to the other claims presented.

In April 2019, PMT served the Company, NeuroOne, Inc and Christianson with a proposed Second Amended Complaint, which included new claims against the Company and NeuroOne, Inc for tortious interference with contract and tortious interference with prospective business advantage and punitive damages against the Company, NeuroOne Inc. and Christianson. On June 28, 2019, the Company presented evidence indicating that PMT had participated in a fraud on the Court and sought an Order that PMT had waived the attorney client privilege.

On July 16, 2019, the defendants served PMT with a joint notice of motion for sanctions seeking a variety of sanctions for litigation misconduct including, but not limited to, dismissal of the case and an award of attorneys’ fees. The Company, NeuroOne Inc and Mr. Christianson further intend to move for summary judgment on all remaining claims asserted against them as well as for leave to assert counterclaims against PMT for abuse of process.

On August 30, 2019, the Hennepin County District Court heard dispositive motions in this case. The district court judge indicated some claims would likely be tried to a jury and encouraged the parties to settle.

On September 12, 2019, the district court heard NeuroOne’s motion for sanctions. The district court held the sanctions hearing on December 17, 2019 and December 18, 2019 and indicated that a ruling would be made in approximately 90 days. NeuroOne intends to continue to defend themselves vigorously.

The Court issued multiple rulings on the Company’s request for summary judgment and sanctions against PMT in April 2020.

On April 29, 2020, the district court granted the Company’s motion for sanctions. Additionally, the district court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment in part with respect to the counts for Christianson’s breach of non-confidentiality agreement, Fredrickson’s breach of confidentiality covenants, and the creation of a constructive trust and denied the Company’s motion for summary judgment on all other counts. 

On August 24, 2020, defendants will move the Court to amend their counterclaims for abuse of process against PMT to add a claim for punitive damages.

Trial has been set for May 2021, but this may be delayed or impacted by COVID-19. The Company intends to continue to defend itself vigorously and to continue to aggressively prosecute its affirmative counterclaim against PMT.

Facility Lease

On October 7, 2019, the Company entered into a non-cancellable lease agreement (the “Lease”) with Biynah Cleveland, LLC, BIP Cleveland, LLC, and Edenvale Investors (together, the “Landlord”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to lease office space located at 7599 Anagram Drive, Eden Prairie, Minnesota (the “Premises”). The Company took possession of the Premises on November 1, 2019, with the term of the Lease ending 65 months after such date, unless terminated earlier (the “Term”). The initial base rent for the Premises is $6,410 per month for the first 17 months, increasing to $7,076 per month by the end of the Term. In addition, as long as the Company is not in default under the Lease, the Company shall be entitled to an abatement of its base rent for the first 5 months. In addition, the Company will pay its pro rata share of the Landlord’s annual operating expenses associated with the premises, calculated as set forth in the Lease of which the Company is entitled to an abatement of these operating expense for the first 3 months.

Prior to the October 2019 Lease, the Company entered into a non-cancellable facility lease for its operations and headquarters for an eleven month term beginning on December 1, 2018. The monthly rent under that lease was $4,763.

During the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, rent expense associated with the facility leases amounted to $25,861 and $14,289, respectively, and $73,727 and $33,341 during the nine month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Paycheck Protection Program

The CARES Act, signed into law in March 2020, established the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP authorizes over $600 billion in forgivable loans to small businesses. Loan amounts are forgiven to the extent proceeds are used to cover documented payroll, mortgage interest, rent, and utility costs over a 24 week measurement period following loan funding. There can be no assurance that this PPP loan will be forgiven. Loans have a maturity of 2 years and an interest rate of 1%. Prepayments may be made without penalty. In April 2020, the Company received loan funding of approximately $83,333 under the PPP. Interest in connection with the PPP was nominal during the three and nine month period ended June 30, 2020.

Paulson 2019 Convertible Note Financing 

On November 1, 2019, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement (the “2019 Paulson Private Placement”), agreed to issue and sell to the investors 13% convertible promissory notes (each, a “2019 Paulson Note” and collectively, the “2019 Paulson Notes”) and warrants (each, a “2019 Paulson Warrant” and collectively, the “2019 Paulson Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.

The initial closing of the 2019 Paulson Private Placement was consummated on November 1, 2019, and, on that date and through December 3, 2019, the Company issued the 2019 Paulson Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $3,234,800 to the subscribers for gross proceeds equalling the principal amount. The 2019 Paulson Private Placement terminated on December 3, 2019.

On April 24, 2020, the Company and holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Paulson Notes entered into an amendment to the 2019 Paulson Notes (the “Second 2019 Paulson Notes Amendment”) to, among other things:

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements, continued (unaudited)

The 2019 Paulson Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 13% per annum and originally required the Company to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon on November 1, 2020. Interest on principal amounted to $41,494 and $195,638 during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and was recorded under the net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value in the condensed statements of operations.

The Second 2019 Paulson Notes Amendment was accounted for as a note extinguishment for accounting purposes given the substantive change in the optional redemption feature’s conversion formula. The fair value change in the 2019 Paulson Notes associated with the extinguishment was recorded as a loss on notes extinguishment in the accompanying condensed statements of operations in the amount of $2,017,847 during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020. Lastly, in connection with the Second 2019 Paulson Notes Amendment, legal costs in the amount of $1,943 were incurred and recorded as a component of interest in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

Prior to the Second 2019 Paulson Notes Amendment, the subscriber had the option to convert the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of such subscriber’s 2019 Paulson Note (the “Outstanding Balance”) into common stock in an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance divided by the ten day volume weighted average closing price (“VWAP”) of the common stock prior to conversion at no discount. As referenced above, the Second 2019 Paulson Notes Amendment provides for the ten day VWAP of the common stock under the optional conversion option to be discounted at 40%.

In addition, if the Company raises more than $3,000,000 in an equity financing (the “2019 Qualified Financing”) before the maturity date, each subscriber shall have the option to convert the Outstanding Balance into the securities issued by the Company in such 2019 Qualified Financing in an amount equal to (i) the Outstanding Balance divided by (ii) the lower of 0.6 multiplied by (A) the actual per share price of securities issued by the Company in the 2019 Qualified Financing or (B) the ten day VWAP of the common stock prior to the first closing of a 2019 Qualified Financing. If a change of control transaction occurs prior to a 2019 Qualified Financing or the maturity date, the 2019 Paulson Notes would become payable on demand as of the closing date of such transaction. Change of control means a merger or consolidation with another entity in which the Company’s stockholders do not own more than 50% of the outstanding voting power of the surviving entity or the disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.

The Company elected to account for the 2019 Paulson Notes on a fair value basis under ASC 825 to comprehensively value and streamline the accounting for the embedded conversion options. The fair value of the 2019 Paulson Notes was significantly higher than the proceeds received as of each of the respective issuance dates given the significant redemption discount associated with the 2019 Qualified Financing provision. The excess of fair value over proceeds at issuance amounted to $1,831,940 and was recorded to interest expense in the condensed statements of operations during the nine month period ended June 30, 2020. Subsequent to issuance, the fair value change of the 2019 Paulson Notes amounted to a reduction of $(1,344,852) and $(1,250,994) during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and was recorded under the net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value in the condensed statements of operations.

Each 2019 Paulson Warrant grants the holder the option to purchase the number of shares of common stock equal to (i) 0.5 multiplied by (ii) the principal amount of such subscriber’s 2019 Paulson Notes divided by 1.87, with an exercise price per share equal to $1.87. As of the final closing on December 3, 2019, the Company issued 2019 Paulson Warrants exercisable for 864,913 shares of common stock in connection with all closings of the 2019 Paulson Private Placement. The 2019 Paulson Warrants are immediately exercisable and expire on November 1, 2022. The exercise price is subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends or splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described therein. The 2019 Paulson warrants were deemed to be a free-standing instrument and were accounted for as equity. Given that the fair value of the 2019 Paulson Notes exceeded the proceeds received at issuance, there was no value attributed to the 2019 Paulson Warrants in the condensed financial statements.

In connection with the 2019 Private Placement, Paulson Investment Company, LLC (“Paulson”) received a cash commission equal to 12% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the 2019 Paulson Notes, and 10-year warrants to purchase an amount of Common Stock equal to 259,476 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.87 per share (the “Broker Warrants”). The issuance costs incurred during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 in connection with the 2019 Paulson Private Placement were zero and $865,567, respectively. Issuance costs included cash commissions equal to $388,176 and legal and third party fees in the amount of $57,756. In addition, issuance costs included the value of the Broker Warrants in the amount of $419,635. The issuance costs were recorded as a component of interest in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

Between January 1, 2020 and June 25, 2020, certain holders of the 2019 Paulson Notes elected to convert outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest in the amount of $2,838,724 into 2,176,119 shares of common stock.

Paulson 2020 Convertible Note Financing 

On April 30, 2020, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement (the “2020 Paulson Private Placement”), agreed to issue and sell to the investors 13% convertible promissory notes (each, a “2020 Paulson Note” and collectively, the “2020 Paulson Notes”) and warrants (each, a “2020 Paulson Warrant” and collectively, the “2020 Paulson Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. 

Between May 1, 2020 and June 30, 2020, the Company issued 2020 Paulson Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $5,122,700 to the Subscribers. The 2020 Paulson Private Placement was terminated on June 30, 2020.

The 2020 Paulson Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 13% per annum and require the Company to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the earlier of December 31, 2020 or a change of control transaction. Interest on principal amounted to $60,050 during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020 and was recorded under the net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value in the condensed statements of operations.

If the Company raises more than $5,000,000 in an equity financing before the maturity date (the “2020 Qualified Financing”), without any action on the part of the Subscribers, all of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the Notes (the “Outstanding Balance”) shall convert into that number of shares of the securities issued by the Company in the closing on the date a 2020 Qualified Financing occurs equal to: (i) the Outstanding Balance divided by (ii) the lower of 0.6 multiplied by (A) the actual per share price of the securities issued by the Company in the closing on the date a 2020 Qualified Financing occurs and (B) the volume weighted average price of the common stock for ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the 2020 Qualified Financing.

If the Company announces a transaction between the Company and any other company (or an affiliate of any such company) that is included in the S&P 500 Health Care Index as published from time to time by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC that includes an investment or upfront payments resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $2,000,000 upon the execution of such transaction or definitive agreement, and provides for terms of collaboration, manufacturing, distribution, licensing or supply of the Company’s products (a “Strategic Transaction”) before the maturity date, without any action on the part of the subscribers, the Outstanding Balance shall be converted into that number of shares of common stock equal to: (i) the Outstanding Balance divided by (ii) the lower of 0.6 multiplied by (A) the VWAP of the common stock for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the first announcement of the Strategic Transaction or (B) closing price of the common stock on the day preceding the first announcement by the Company of a Strategic Transaction.

At any time, at the sole election of the holder of such 2020 Paulson Note, all or a portion of the Outstanding Balance may be converted into that number of shares of common stock equal to: (i) the Outstanding Balance elected by the holder to be converted divided by (ii) an amount equal to 0.6 multiplied by the volume weighted average price of the common stock for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion.

If a change of control transaction occurs prior to the conversion of the 2020 Paulson Notes or the maturity date, the 2020 Paulson Notes would become payable on demand as of the closing date of such transaction. Change of control means a merger or consolidation with another entity in which the Company’s stockholders do not own more than 50% of the outstanding voting power of the surviving entity or the disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.

The Company elected to account for the 2020 Paulson Notes on a fair value basis under ASC 825 to comprehensively value and streamline the accounting for the embedded conversion options. The fair value of the 2020 Paulson Notes was significantly higher than the proceeds received as of each of the respective issuance dates given the significant redemption discount associated with the redemption provisions. The excess of fair value over proceeds at issuance amounted to $3,784,918 and was recorded to interest expense in the condensed statements of operations during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020. Subsequent to issuance, the fair value change of the 2020 Paulson Notes amounted to an increase of $75,309 during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020 and was recorded under the net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value in the condensed statements of operations.

Each 2020 Paulson Warrant grants the holder the option to purchase the number of shares of common stock equal to (i) 0.5 multiplied by (ii) the principal amount of such subscriber’s 2020 Paulson Notes divided by 1.87, with an exercise price per share equal to $1.87. The 2020 Paulson Warrants are immediately exercisable and expire on April 30, 2023. The exercise price is subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends or splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction. The Company issued 2020 Paulson Warrants exercisable for 1,369,690 shares of common stock in connection with all closings of the 2020 Paulson Private Placement through June 30, 2020. The 2020 Paulson warrants were deemed to be a free-standing instrument and were accounted for as equity. Given that the fair value of the 2020 Paulson Notes exceeded the proceeds received at issuance, there was no value attributed to the 2020 Paulson Warrants in the condensed financial statements.

In connection with the 2020 Paulson Private Placement, Paulson received a cash commission equal to 12% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the 2020 Paulson Notes and received 7-year warrants to purchase an amount of common stock equal to 410,911 (“Broker Warrants”). The Broker Warrants have an exercise price equal to $1.87 per share. The issuance costs incurred during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 in connection with the 2020 Paulson Private Placement were $962,402. Issuance costs included cash commissions equal to $633,725 and legal and third party fees in the amount of $51,640. In addition, issuance costs included the value of the Broker Warrants in the amount of $277,037. The issuance costs were recorded as a component of interest in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

Between May 4, 2020 and June 30, 2020, certain Subscribers elected to convert $1,870,352 of the outstanding principal and interest of such Subscribers’ 2020 Paulson Notes into 2,034,343 shares of common stock (123,914 shares of common stock were not formally issued until July 2020). In July 2020, the balance of the 2020 Paulson Notes were converted into common stock upon the announcement of a Strategic Transaction. See NOTE 12 – Subsequent Events.

2017 Convertible Notes

From October 2017 to May 2018, the Company issued convertible notes (the “2017 Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1,540,000 that bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock (the “2017 Warrants”).

On February 28, 2019, the 2017 Convertible Notes were converted into 839,179 shares of common stock and 839,179 common stock purchase warrants with an exercise term of approximately 4.8 years and an exercise price $3.00 per share. In addition, the previously issued 2017 Warrants became immediately exercisable for 839,179 shares of common stock. The conversion was accounted for as a debt extinguishment given the bifurcation of the embedded premium debt conversion feature. The fair value of the newly issued common shares and warrants associated with the 2017 Convertible Notes conversion relative to the carrying value of the debt and fair value of warrant liability and premium derivative liability on the conversion date was $553,447 and was recorded as a loss on note extinguishment in the accompanying condensed statements of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019.

As noted above, the 2017 Convertible Notes were converted into shares of common stock and not outstanding during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020.

NOTE 8 – Defined Contribution Plan

The Company has a 401(k) defined contribution plan (the “401K Plan”) for all employees over age 21. Employees can defer up to 100% of their compensation through payroll withholdings into the 401K Plan subject to federal law limits. The Company matches 100% of deferrals up to 3% of one’s contributions. The Company’s matching contributions to employee deferrals are discretionary. The Company may also make discretionary profit sharing contributions under the 401K Plan in the future, but it has not done so through June 30, 2020.

Employee contributions and any employer matching contributions made to satisfy certain non-discrimination tests required by the Internal Revenue Code are 100% vested upon contribution. Discretionary employer matches to employee deferrals vest over a nine year period beginning on the second anniversary of an employee’s date of hire. Discretionary profit sharing contributions vest over a five year period beginning on the first anniversary of an employee’s date of hire. No matching contributions were made during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2019, there was a benefit reduction adjustment of $(4,359) given an overpayment.

Other Stock-Based Awards

2020 Activity

In October 2019, two consulting agreements were executed whereby up to 115,000 shares of common stock were issued as of June 30, 2020 of which 102,500 shares of common stock were vested as of June 30, 2020 under these agreements. On April 22, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to one of the consulting agreements. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company issued an additional 35,000 shares in exchange for consulting services of which 14,000 shares of common stock were vested as of June 30, 2020 under the Amendment. Vesting was based on a time-based vesting condition ranging over a three to nine month period commencing upon the execution of the consulting agreements.

In February 2020, an additional consulting agreement was executed whereby up to 90,000 shares of common stock were issuable of which 76,500 shares of common stock were issued and vested as of June 30, 2020 under this agreement. On May 21, 2020, 66,583 shares of common stock were issued as compensation to a former 2019 Paulson Note holder related to a prior 2019 Paulson Note conversion and release of liability.

Compensation expense related to the stock awards granted under the consulting agreements and to the former 2019 Paulson Note holder referenced above amounted to $241,150 and $519,325 for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and was included in the total stock-based expense. The expense was based on the fair value of the underlying common stock at the point of vesting which ranged from $1.51 to $2.65 per share.

2019 Activity

In February 2018, 250,000 shares of common stock were reserved as a result of a consulting agreement for investor relations services executed in February 2018. Under the agreement, zero and 50,000 shares of common stock were awarded during the three and nine month period ended June 30, 2019, respectively, on a time-based vesting condition that was met in November 2018. The compensation expense related to the vested common shares was included in the total stock-based expense referenced above which totaled zero and $115,000 for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The expense was based on the fair value of the underlying common stock at the point of vesting which was $2.30 per share. The underlying stock price used in the analysis was on a non-marketable basis and was according to the market approach, considering both the traded price and forward multiples from guideline public companies, using allocation and marketability-discount methodologies.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements, continued (unaudited)

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had formal obligation to issue future common stock options relating to several consulting agreements. The corresponding stock-based compensation expense related to the stock-based award liabilities amounted to zero and $27,543 during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and was included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

General

As of June 30, 2020, 1,879,400 shares were available for future issuance on a combined basis under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan and 2017 Plan. Unrecognized stock-based compensation was $0.9 million as of June 30, 2020. The unrecognized share-based expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.

NOTE 10 – Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was zero percent. As a result of the analysis of all available evidence as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets. Consequently, the Company reported no income tax benefit during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. If the Company’s assumptions change and the Company believes that it will be able to realize these deferred tax assets, the tax benefits relating to any reversal of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets will be recognized as a reduction of future income tax expense.  If the assumptions do not change, each period the Company could record an additional valuation allowance on any increases in the deferred tax assets. However, the Company is continuing to assess the impact of the CARES Act.

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) which includes modifications to the limitation on business interest expense and net operating loss provisions, and provides a payment delay of employer payroll taxes during 2020 after the date of enactment. The CARES Act is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Overview

We are a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of thin film electrode technology for continuous electroencephalogram (cEEG) and stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) recording, brain stimulation and ablation solutions for patients suffering from epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors and other related brain related disorders. Additionally, we are investigating the potential applications of our technology associated with artificial intelligence. We are based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.

To date, our primary activities have been limited to, and our limited resources have been dedicated to, performing business and financial planning, raising capital, recruiting personnel, negotiating with business partners and the licensors of our intellectual property and conducting research and development activities. Our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology are still under development and we have not generated any revenue from commercial sales.

We have incurred losses since inception. As of June 30, 2020, we had an accumulated deficit of $30.3 million, primarily as a result of expenses incurred in connection with our research and development programs, from general and administrative expenses associated with our operations and interest expense, fair value adjustments and loss on extinguishments related to our debt. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating and net losses for the foreseeable future.

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation

Our main source of cash to date has been proceeds from the issuances of notes, common stock, warrants and unsecured loans. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Historical Capital Resources” below.

At June 30, 2020, we had $3.8 million in cash deposits. Our existing cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses through the end of the twelve month period following the issuance of this Form 10-Q. We need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include collaborations with third parties. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise such capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop and commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and future products and our ability to pursue our business strategy. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Funding Requirements and Outlook” below.

COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a global pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States and around the world. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has experienced delays and disruptions in our pre-clinical and clinical trials, as well as interruptions in our manufacturing, supply chain, and research and development operations. The global outbreak of COVID-19 continues to rapidly evolve. In April 2020, given the impact of COVID-19 on the Company, the Company applied for and received loan funding of approximately $83,333 under the PPP.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business and pre-clinical and clinical trials will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions and social distancing in the U.S. and other countries, business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken in the U.S. and other countries to contain and treat the disease. The COVID-19 pandemic may also impact our ability to secure additional financing or our ability to up-list from our current OTC Market (“OTCQB”), and may result in further modifications to our debt agreements. Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2020.

Financial Overview

Revenue

To date, we have not generated any revenue. We do not expect to generate revenue unless or until we develop and commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. If we fail to complete the development of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, or any other product candidate we may pursue in the future, in a timely manner, or fail to obtain certain regulatory approvals, we may never be able to generate any revenue.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs including stock-based compensation for personnel in functions not directly associated with research and development activities. Other significant costs include legal fees relating to corporate matters, intellectual property costs, professional fees for consultants assisting with regulatory, clinical, product development, financial matters and product costs. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will significantly increase in the future to support our continued research and development activities, potential commercialization of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and the increased costs of operating as a public company. These increases will include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees for legal and professional services, as well as other public-company related costs.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities in developing our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Research and development expenses include compensation and benefits for research and development employees including stock-based compensation, overhead expenses, cost of laboratory supplies, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing expenses, costs related to regulatory operations, fees paid to consultants and other outside expenses. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and costs incurred by third parties are expensed as the contracted work is performed.  Lastly, de minimis income from the sale of prototype products and related materials are offset against research and development expenses.

We expect our research and development expenses to significantly increase over the next several years as we develop our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and conduct pre-clinical testing and clinical trials and will depend on the duration, costs and timing to complete our pre-clinical programs and clinical trials.

Interest Expense

Interest expense primarily consists of amortized discount costs and interest costs as applicable related to our 2019 Paulson Notes, 2020 Paulson Notes and the Series 3 Notes while outstanding as described further below.

Net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value

The net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value include the change in fair value of the 2019 Paulson Notes, 2020 Paulson Notes, warrant liability and the premium conversion derivatives during the particular period these instruments are outstanding.

Loss on note extinguishment

Loss on note extinguishment includes the loss associated with debt instrument modifications and conversions accounted for as debt extinguishments.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

The following table sets forth the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a net decrease in legal and accounting fees of $0.2 million, employee related expenses of approximately $0.1 million and other operational related costs of $0.1 million, on a net basis, offset in part by an increase in stock-based compensation costs of $0.1 million.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses were $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and primarily included salary-related expenses, consulting services and materials associated with research and development activities.

 Interest expense

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $4.7 million and zero, respectively. Interest in the current 2020 period was attributed to non-cash interest expense in connection with our 2020 Paulson Notes and a nominal amount related to the 2019 Paulson Notes, both described further below. Interest expense was comprised of issuance costs of $1.0 million and day-one interest at issuance of $3.8 million representing the amount by which fair value exceeded the 2020 Paulson Note proceeds. Interest on principal in connection with the 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes is included in the net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value line item. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, no interest expense was incurred as there was no debt outstanding.

 Net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value:

The net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value for the 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was a benefit of $(1.3) million. The change was due to fluctuations in our common stock fair value, the number of potential shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes and due to the accretion of interest on principal. There was no net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value during the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Loss on note extinguishment

Non-cash loss on note extinguishment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $2.0 million. The 2019 Paulson notes were amended on April 24, 2020 to add a 40% discount to the optional conversion feature and to extend the maturity date by six months. The April 2020 amendment was accounted for as a note extinguishment given the significant modification made to the optional conversion feature. There were no note extinguishments during the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Comparison of the Nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

The following table sets forth the results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $3.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $3.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. The slight increase was primarily due to a net increase of stock-based compensation of $1.0 million and other marketing costs of approximately $0.1 million, offset largely by a decrease in payroll related costs of $0.4 million, legal and accounting fees of $0.4 million and board of director related costs of $0.2 million.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses were $1.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $1.1 million during for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. The increase period over period was attributed to supporting development activities, which primarily included salary-related expenses and costs related to consulting services, materials and supplies.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $7.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The increase was primarily attributed to non-cash interest expense in connection with our 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes. Interest expense attributed to the 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes was comprised of issuance costs of $1.8 million and day-one interest at issuance of $5.6 million representing the amount by which fair value exceeded note proceeds. Interest on principal in connection with the 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes is included in the net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value line item.

Interest expense during the nine months ended June 30, 2019 was comprised of interest on principal of $51,000 and amortization of debt discount costs of $0.2 million related to the Series 3 Notes.

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Form 10-Q

Net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value:

The net valuation change of instruments measured at fair value for the 2019 Paulson Notes, 2020 Paulson Notes, warrants and premium conversion derivatives for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was a benefit of $(1.2) and an expense of $0.1 million, respectively. The change is due to accrued interest on the 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes and due to fluctuations in our common stock fair value, the number of potential shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2019 Paulson Notes, 2020 Paulson Notes, or the Series 3 Notes while outstanding.

 Loss on note extinguishment

Non-cash loss on note extinguishment for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $2.0 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The 2019 Paulson notes as described further below were amended on April 24, 2020 to principally add a 40% discount to the optional conversion feature and to extend the maturity date by six months. The April 2020 amendment was accounted for as a note extinguishment given the significant modification made to the optional conversion feature. The Series 3 Notes were converted on February 28, 2019 and the conversion was accounted for as a note extinguishment given the bifurcated embedded premium debt conversion feature.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historical Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2020, our principal source of liquidity consisted of cash deposits of $3.8 million. We have not generated any revenue, and we anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we develop our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and pursue pre-clinical and clinical trials, seek regulatory approvals, contract to manufacture any products, establish our own sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology under development, if approved, hire additional staff, add operational, financial and management systems and continue to operate as a public company.

Our source of cash to date has been proceeds from the issuances of notes with warrants, common stock with warrants and unsecured loans, the terms of which are further described below.

2020 Paulson Convertible Notes

On April 30, 2020, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement (the “2020 Paulson Private Placement”), agreed to issue and sell to the investors 13% convertible promissory notes (each, a “2020 Paulson Note” and collectively, the “2020 Paulson Notes”) and warrants (each, a “2020 Paulson Warrant” and collectively, the “2020 Paulson Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.

Between April 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020, the Company issued 2020 Paulson Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $5.1 million to the Subscribers. The final closing under the 2020 Paulson Private Placement occurred on June 30, 2020.

The 2020 Paulson Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 13% per annum and require the Company to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2020 and (ii) a change of control transaction. If the Company raises more than $5,000,000 in an equity financing before the maturity date (the “2020 Qualified Financing”), without any action on the part of the Subscribers, all of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the Notes (the “Outstanding Balance”) shall convert into that number of shares of the securities issued by the Company in the closing on the date a 2020 Qualified Financing occurs equal to: (i) the Outstanding Balance divided by (ii) the lower of 0.6 multiplied by (A) the actual per share price of the securities issued by the Company in the closing on the date a 2020 Qualified Financing occurs and (B) the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the common stock for ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the 2020 Qualified Financing.

If a change of control transaction occurs prior to the conversion of the 2020 Paulson Notes or the maturity date, the 2020 Paulson Notes would become payable on demand as of the closing date of such transaction. Change of control means a merger or consolidation with another entity in which the Company’s stockholders do not own more than 50% of the outstanding voting power of the surviving entity or the disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.

Each 2020 Paulson Warrant grants the holder the option to purchase the number of shares of common stock equal to (i) 0.5 multiplied by (ii) the principal amount of such subscriber’s 2020 Paulson Notes divided by 1.87, with an exercise price per share equal to $1.87.

From October 2017 to May 2018, the Company issued convertible notes (the “Series 3 Notes” or “2017 Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 million that bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock (the “Series 3 Warrants”). On February 28, 2019, the outstanding principal and interest on the Series 3 Notes converted into 839,179 shares of common stock and 839,179 common stock purchase warrants with an exercise term of approximately 4.8 years and an exercise price of $3.00 per share.

In addition, each holder has the option to purchase additional shares of our capital stock equal to 839,179 shares of capital stock of the Company at a per share exercise price equal to $2.50. The warrants exercisable at $2.50 per share have a five year term which commenced on February 28, 2019. The exercise price and number of the shares issuable upon exercising the Series 3 Warrants are subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, business combination or similar transaction, as described therein.

Series 2 Notes and Warrants

 In August 2017, the Company entered into a subscription agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $253,000 to certain accredited investors (the “Series 2 Notes”).

The warrants will expire on November 21, 2021.

Unsecured Loans

From March 2018 to December 2018, the Company received gross proceeds from unsecured loans in the amount of $528,000. The unsecured loans were repaid in full as of June 30, 2019.

Refer to “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Historical Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019 for additional information related to financings prior to fiscal year 2020.

Funding Requirements and Outlook

We have no current source of revenue to sustain our present activities, and we do not expect to generate revenue until, and unless, we successfully commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity and debt financings as well as collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. We do not have any committed external source of funds. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a common stockholder. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends.

If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third-party partners, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development, future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its report on our annual financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2019 and as of and for the nine month transition period ended September 30, 2018, noting the existence of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This uncertainty arose from management’s review of our results of operations and financial condition and its conclusion that, based on our operating plans, we did not have sufficient existing working capital to fund our operating expenses.

As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes in the aggregate was $3,904,112. However, if we fail to complete a qualified financing or a strategic transaction as provided under the 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes, the remaining 2019 Paulson Notes and 2020 Paulson Notes will be immediately due and payable upon their respective maturity dates, and we may not have sufficient cash to pay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

We have agreements with the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (“WARF”) and the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (“Mayo”) that require us to make certain milestone and royalty payments.

On January 22, 2020, we entered into an Amended and Restated License Agreement (the “WARF License”) with WARF, which amended and restated in full our prior license agreement with WARF, dated October 1, 2014 (the “Original WARF License”). Under the WARF License, we have agreed to pay WARF a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the WARF License, with a minimum annual royalty payment of $50,000 for 2020, $100,000 for 2021 and $150,000 for 2022 and each calendar year thereafter that the WARF License is in effect. If we or any of our sublicensees contest the validity of any licensed patent, the royalty rate will be doubled during the pendency of such contest and, if the contested patent is found to be valid and would be infringed by us if not for the WARF License, the royalty rate will be tripled for the remaining term of the WARF License.

Under the Amended and Restated License and Development Agreement with Mayo (the “Mayo Development Agreement”), we have agreed to pay Mayo a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the Mayo Development Agreement. Nothing further is due until we start selling our products.

Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019 with regard to: “Item 1—Business—WARF License,” “Business—Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research License and Development Agreement,” “Item 1A—Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business—We depend on intellectual property licensed from WARF for our technology under development, and the termination of this license would harm our business” and “Item 1A—Risk Factors—We depend on our partnership with Mayo to license certain know how for the development and commercialization of our technology.”

Our existing cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses without raising additional funds. To continue to fund operations, we will need to secure additional funding or take steps to reduce expenses. We may obtain additional financing in the future through the issuance of our Common Stock and securities convertible into our Common Stock, through other equity or debt financings or through collaborations or partnerships with other companies. We may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Further, we may not be able to pay off or modify terms of our existing debt, and any failure to raise capital or to amend existing debt that may be due as and when needed could compromise our ability to execute on our business plan.

The development of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology is subject to numerous uncertainties, and we have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be substantially different than we currently anticipate and could use our cash resources sooner than we expect. Additionally, the process of developing medical devices is costly, and the timing of progress in pre-clinical tests and clinical trials is uncertain. Our ability to successfully transition to profitability will be dependent upon achieving certain regulatory approval and then a level of product sales adequate to support our cost structure. We cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable or generate positive cash flow from operating activities. 

Cash Flows

The following is a summary of cash flows for each of the periods set forth below.

Net cash used in operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $3.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, which consisted of a net loss of $13.1 million partially offset primarily by non-cash interest, stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization related to intangible assets, revaluation of convertible notes and loss on notes extinguishment, totaling approximately $9.8 million in the aggregate. The net change in our net operating assets and liabilities associated with fluctuations in our operating activities resulted in a cash use of approximately $0.5 million. The change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily attributable to a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses and by an increase in our prepaid expenses.

 Net cash used in operating activities was $4.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2019, which consisted of a net loss of $5.4 million partially offset by non-cash interest, note discount amortization, revaluation of premium debt conversion derivatives and warrant liabilities, non-cash note extinguishment, amortization and depreciation related to intangible assets and property and equipment, and stock-based compensation, totaling approximately $1.4 million in the aggregate. The net change in our net operating assets and liabilities associated with fluctuations in our operating activities resulted in a cash use of $0.2 million. The change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily attributable to a net decrease in accrued expenses and by a net increase in our prepaid expenses associated with fluctuations in our operating activities.

Net cash used by investing activities

Net cash used by investing activities was $66,000 and consisted of outlays for furniture and equipment during the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

Net cash used by investing activities was $0.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2019 and consisted of the payment owed under the terms of the WARF License related to research and development of $65,000 and the purchase of equipment and equipment totaling $53,952.

Net cash provided by financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $7.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020, which consisted primarily of net proceeds received upon the issuance of the 2019 and 2020 Paulson Notes and the common stock offering totaling $7.2 million in the aggregate, and $0.1 million in proceeds received from the Paycheck Protection Program.

 Net cash provided by financing activities was $5.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2019 which consisted primarily of net proceeds received upon the issuance of the Units in the 2019 and 2018 Private Placements in the amount of approximately $5.5 million. Additionally, cash provided by financing activities also included proceeds from stock option and warrant exercises in the aggregate of $0.4 million, offset in part by net repayments over proceeds relating to our unsecured loans in the amount of $283,000 during the nine month period.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These accounting principles require us to make estimates and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the periods presented. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon which we rely are reasonably based upon information available to us at the time that we make these estimates and judgments. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial results will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates and judgments and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described in Note 3 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed financial statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements” in this Report.

During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, we elected to record the convertible notes issued at fair value which is based on both the fair value of our common stock and cash flow models discounted at current implied market rates evidenced in recent arms-length transactions representing expected returns by market participants for similar instruments. There were no additional material changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019.

Not applicable for smaller reporting companies.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We designed and evaluate our disclosure controls and procedures recognizing that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Also, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls 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.

Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)- 15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In May 2017, NeuroOne received a letter from PMT Corporation (“PMT”), the former employer of Mark Christianson and Wade Fredrickson. PMT claimed that these officers had breached their restrictive covenant obligations with PMT by virtue of their work for NeuroOne and such officer’s prior work during employment with the prior employer, that these officers had breached their confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations to PMT and federal and state law by misappropriating confidential and trade secret information, and that the Company is responsible for tortious interference with contracts. The letter, which purported to attach a noncompete agreement signed by Mr. Fredrickson, demanded that Mr. Fredrickson (who resigned from the Company in June 2017), Mr. Christianson and NeuroOne cease and desist all competitive activities, that Mr. Fredrickson step down from his position and that Mr. Christianson and NeuroOne provide the former employer access to NeuroOne’s systems to demonstrate that it is not using trade secrets or proprietary information nor competing with the former employer.

On March 29, 2018, we were served with a complaint filed by PMT adding the Company, NeuroOne, Inc. and Mr. Christianson to its existing lawsuit against Mr. Fredrickson in the Fourth Judicial District Court of the State of Minnesota (the “Court”). In the lawsuit, PMT claims that Mr. Fredrickson and Mr. Christianson breached their non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disclosure obligations, breached their fiduciary duty obligations, were unjustly enriched, engaged in unfair competition, engaged in a civil conspiracy, tortiously interfered with PMT’s contracts and prospective economic advantage, and breached a covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Against Mr. Fredrickson, PMT also alleges that he intentionally or negligently spoliated evidence, made negligent or fraudulent misrepresentations, misappropriated trade secrets in violation of Minnesota law, and committed the tort of conversion and statutory civil theft. Against the Company and NeuroOne, Inc., PMT alleges that the Company and NeuroOne, Inc. were unjustly enriched and engaged in unfair competition. PMT asks the Court to impose a constructive trust over the shares held by Mr. Fredrickson and Mr. Christianson and to award compensatory damages, equitable relief, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest. The Company, NeuroOne, Inc. and Mr. Christianson (who has not worked for PMT since 2012) intend to defend themselves vigorously. Furthermore, Mr. Christianson is a key officer and the loss of him would be detrimental to our operations and prospects.

On April 18, 2018, Mr. Christianson, the Company and NeuroOne, Inc. filed a motion for dismissal, which was heard by the Court on October 11, 2018. The motion for dismissal states that: the contract claims against Mr. Christianson fail because his agreement was not supported by consideration; the Minnesota Uniform Trade Secrets Act preempts plaintiff’s claims for unfair competition, civil conspiracy and unjust enrichment; plaintiff fails to state a claim regarding alleged breach of the duties of loyalty and good faith/fair dealing; plaintiff cannot legally obtain a constructive trust; plaintiff has insufficiently pled its tortious interference claims; and Plaintiff has not stated a claim for unfair competition. On January 7, 2019, the judge granted the motion for dismissal with respect to PMT’s claim for breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, and denied the motion for dismissal with respect to the other claims presented. Discovery is now virtually complete. On June 28, 2019, the Company presented to the special master evidence of what it believed to reflect significant litigation misconduct by PMT relating to a manufactured non-compete agreement for Wade Fredrickson that it had attempted to pass off as a business record of PMT. Based on the evidence presented, the special master ruled that PMT had waived the attorney client privilege with respect to certain communications with respect to the Fredrickson non-compete with both its former and current litigation counsel and authorized a deposition of the former litigation counsel concerning these communications. On August 30, 2019, the Hennepin County District Court heard dispositive motions in this case. The district court judge indicated some claims would likely be tried to a jury and encouraged the parties to settle.

On April 29, 2020, the district court granted the Company’s motion for sanctions. Additionally, the district court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment in part with respect to the counts for Christianson’s breach of non-confidentiality agreement, Fredrickson’s breach of confidentiality covenants, and the creation of a constructive trust and denied the motion for summary judgment on all other counts.

On August 24, 2020, defendants will move the Court to amend their counterclaims for abuse of process against PMT to add a claim for punitive damages. Trial has been set for May 2021, but this may be delayed or impacted by COVID-19. The Company intends to continue to defend itself vigorously and to continue to aggressively prosecute its affirmative counterclaim against PMT.
