CAUTIONARY NOTE

We note that this Quarterly report does not meet fully the requirements of quarterly reports as required by Form 10-Q. Particularly, we note that the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q have not been reviewed by an independent auditor. These are not the type of financial statement that an investor would expect to see from a company that has had its financial statements audited and reviewed by an independent accounting firm per the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  This quarterly report is non-reviewed, therefore incomplete and should not be relied upon as accurate, timely or fit for any purpose. Although the Company intends to amend this quarterly report as soon as practicable and invites any inquiries to be directed to Company management, it may not be able to ever amend it.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 - Organization of the Company and Description of the Business

Q BioMed Inc. (“Q BioMed”), and its wholly owned subsidiaries Q BioMed Cayman SEZC and QBMG Q BioMed Germany UG (collectively, “the Company”), is a biomedical acceleration and development company focused on licensing, acquiring and providing strategic resources to life sciences and healthcare companies. Q BioMed intends to mitigate risk by acquiring multiple assets over time and across a broad spectrum of healthcare related products, companies and sectors. The Company intends to develop these assets to provide returns via organic growth, revenue production, out-licensing, sale or the spinoff of new public companies.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim period unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2022 that was filed with SEC on May 26, 2023. Certain disclosures included in the annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements as they are not required for interim financial statements under U.S. GAAP and the rules of the SEC. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Interim period operating results may not be indicative of the operating results for a full year.

Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has and is expected to incur net losses and cash outflows from operations in pursuit of extracting value from its acquired intellectual property. These matters, amongst others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management anticipates that the Company will have to raise additional funds and/or generate revenue from drug sales within twelve months to continue operations. Additional funding will be needed to implement the Company’s business plan that includes various expenses such as fulfilling our obligations under licensing agreements, legal, operational set-up, general and administrative, marketing, employee salaries and other related start-up expenses. Obtaining additional funding will be subject to a number of factors, including general market conditions, investor acceptance of our business plan and initial results from our business operations. These factors may impact the timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing available to us. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient funds, management will be forced to futher scale back the Company’s operations or cease its operations.

Management has determined that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

Risk and Uncertainties

COVID 19

The impact of the worldwide spread of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has been unprecedented and unpredictable, but based on the Company’s current assessment, the Company does not expect any material impact on its long-term strategic plans,

operations and its liquidity due to the worldwide spread of COVID-19. However, the Company is continuing to assess the effect on its operations by monitoring the spread of COVID-19 and the actions implemented to combat the virus throughout the world and its assessment of the impact of COVID-19 may change.

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the unaudited financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Form 10-K.

Modification of Equity Classified Awards

From time-to-time equity classified awards may be modified. On the modification date, the Company estimates the fair value of the awards immediately before and immediately after modification. The incremental increase in fair value is recognized as expense immediately to the extent the underlying equity awards are vested and on a straight-line basis over the same remaining amortization schedule as the unvested underlying equity awards. The classification of stock-based awards, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed on the modification date.

Induced Conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company accounts for gains or losses on extinguishment of equity-classified preferred stock as deemed dividends, to be included in the net loss per common stockholder used to calculate earnings per share. The difference between (1) the fair value of the consideration transferred to the holders of the preferred stock and (2) the carrying amount of the preferred stock (net of issuance costs) is subtracted from (or added to) net loss to arrive at net loss available to common stockholders in the calculation of earnings per share.

Sequencing Policy

The Company adopted a sequencing policy under ASC 815-40-35 (“ASC 815”) whereby in the event that reclassification of contracts from equity to liabilities is necessary pursuant to ASC 815 due to the Company’s inability to demonstrate it has sufficient authorized shares as a result of certain financial instruments with a potentially indeterminable number of shares, shares will be allocated on the basis of the earliest issuance date of potentially dilutive financial instruments, with the earliest financial instruments receiving the first allocation of shares. Pursuant to ASC 815, issuance of stock-based awards to the Company’s employees, non-employees or directors recognized under ASC 718 are not subject to the sequencing policy. Any modifications of awards (e.g., options or warrants) that remain subject to vesting, or any modifications of awards that continue to be held by active employees, are not subject to the sequencing policy. Modifications of vested awards held by non-employees are subject to the sequencing policy.

Recent Accounting Standards

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This ASU reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. This ASU provides guidance for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another Topic. It specifically addresses: (1) how an entity should treat a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange; (2) how an entity should measure the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange; and (3) how an entity should recognize the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange. This ASU will be effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. An entity should apply the amendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adoption the ASU 2021-04 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. This update permits the use of either the modified retrospective or fully retrospective method of transition. The Company elected to early adopt this guidance on December 1, 2021, on a modified retrospective basis. The adoption resulted in approximately $291,000 decrease in additional paid in capital from the derecognition of the bifurcated equity component, $208,000 increase in debt from the derecognition of the discount associated with the bifurcated equity component and $83,000 decrease to the opening balance of accumulated deficit.

Note 4 - Loss per share

Basic net loss per share was calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share was calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method or the two-class method, whichever is more dilutive. The table below summarizes potentially dilutive securities that were not considered in the computation of diluted net loss per share because they would be anti-dilutive (amounts are rounded to nearest thousand).

Note 5 – Intangible Asset Acquisition

On November 23, 2018, the Company entered into an Asset Sale Agreement (“ASA”) with GE Healthcare Limited (“GE”) whereby the Company acquired GE’s radiopharmaceutical drug, Metastron® and all related intellectual property including, but not limited to sales and distribution data, market authorizations and trademarks for Metastron® in various countries in exchange for an upfront payment of $0.5 million, a one-time milestone payment based on future sales, and royalty payments based on future sales. The Company did not acquire any workforce, manufacturing, inventory, sales agreements, or distribution agreements associated with Metastron®. The first commercial sale of Metastron™ by the Company will occur only after the successful transfer or assignment of all intellectual property, material sales and distribution data, technical transfer, and the establishment of new manufacturing sites by the Company and under the appropriate regulatory filings required by the jurisdictions in which Metastron™ is sold.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The acquired assets are concentrated in a single asset and the set is not considered a business. As such, the transaction is recognized as the acquisition of a finite-lived intangible asset. The one-time milestone payment based on future sales, and royalty payments based on future sales will be recognized when the payments are probable and estimable, which is expected to be when the related sales targets are achieved and the payments payable to GE. The acquired asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated 10-year life. Amortization expense for the three months ended February 28, 2023 and 2022 was $12,500, respectively. The estimated remaining amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal year:

On July 1, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor (“DL”) pursuant to which the Company issued to DL a Convertible Promissory Note (the “DL Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $119,888. The DL Note includes an original issue discount of $16,888 (includes $1,250 due diligence fee retained by DL). The Company also incurred an additional $3,000 of issuance cost resulting from the payment of the lender’s legal fees.

The contingent share-settled redemption feature, contingent acceleration upon merger, acquisition, and event of default within the DL Note are all contingent put options that are required to be bifurcated as a single compound embedded derivative at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The fair value estimate is a Level 3 measurement. The Company estimated the fair value of put option on the merger, acquisition, and event of default by estimating the probability of the occurrence of triggering date (the “Probability factor”) and applying the probability to the discounted maximum redemption premium for any given payment with the following key inputs:

The aggregate fair value of the embedded put option on the issuance date was approximately $104,000, which exceeded the net proceeds of $100,000, resulting in an approximate loss of $4,000 upon the on issuance of the convertible note.

For the three months ended February 28, 2023, the Company issued 14,875,997 shares of common stock to convert approximately $120,000 of outstanding debt upon the conversion.

August 2022 Debenture

On August 10, 2022 (the “Effective Date’), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor (“the Lender”) pursuant to which the Company issued to the Lender a Convertible Promissory Note (the “August Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $275,000 for a purchase price of $250,000. The August Note has a maturity date of February 6, 2023, and the Company has agreed to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance of the August Note at the rate of 10.0% per annum. Upon the later of the date the obligations under this Note are satisfied or the 6-month anniversary and for 30 days thereafter, the Lender has the exclusive right to elect conversion of any original issue discount or interest amount due under this August Note, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price per share equal to $0.035. The conversion option does not apply to the principal amount. The conversion option and contingent put upon an event of default are required to be bifurcated as a single compound embedded derivative at fair value under ASC 815, because it is not considered to be classified in stockholders’ equity. The subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The fair value estimate is a Level 3 measurement. The Company estimated the fair value with the following key inputs:

As additional consideration for making the August Note, the Company agreed to issue 300,000 unregistered common shares within 10 business days to the Lender (the “Commitment shares”). The commitment to issue the shares was valued at the Effective Date fair value of approximately $11,000 and recognized as an additional debt discount.

Equity Financing

On May 5, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Aedesius Holdings Ltd. ("Aedesius") pursuant to which the Company has agreed with Aedesius that the Company would sell it up to 16,000,000 units (the "Units") for a total aggregate of up to $20,000,000.

Aedesius failed to perform on its obligation and to date has not invested any monies in the Company. As a result, the Company has terminated any and all rights with respect to future fundings and will pursue whatever rights and remedies the Company has at its disposal for breach of contract and damages.

Legal

Periodically, the Company reviews the status of significant matters, if any exist, and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal claim is considered probable and the amount can be estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based on the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, the Company reassesses the potential liability related to pending claims and litigation.

As previously reported, on July 12, 2022, the Company was notified that WSI PBG, LLC (“WSI”) filed a complaint against the Company seeking to recover $196,216 in unpaid consulting fees, plus costs and expenses of litigation.  The Company elected not to litigate this suit so as not to increase its liability exposure. Not unexpectedly, on August 24, 2022, WSI obtained a judgment against the Company in the amount of $203,784. The Company is exploring its options in addressing this judgment, including terms of settlement that would result in a satisfaction of this Judgment over a limited period of time.

On July 19, 2022, the Company received notice that the Activus Group (“Activus”) filed a complaint for fees it alleges are due in the amount of $129,600 plus fees and expenses for consulting services provided by Activus as a result of an agreement between the parties. The Company has not filed an answer and is currently determining their next steps in settlement.

On August 15, 2022, the Company received notice that another of its unpaid contractors, Diligent Health Solutions, LLC. (“DHS”), had filed suit against the Company seeking $106,000 in unpaid consulting fees.  Here, too, the Company elected not to litigate this suit so as not to increase its liability exposure.  As a result of the foregoing, DHS obtained a default judgment against the Company in the amount of $111,000.  The company is exploring its options in addressing this judgment, including terms of settlement that would result in a satisfy of this Judgment over a limited period of time.

Advisory Agreements

The Company entered into customary consulting arrangements with various counterparties to provide consulting services, business development and investor relations services, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue shares of common stock as services are received.

On March 11, 2022, the Company entered into an engagement letter agreement (“Agreement”) with EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC (“EF Hutton”) to effectuate the Corporation’s Firm Commitment Public Offering and Uplisting and to engage EF Hutton to act as the placement agent for a bridge or other private offering consisting of approximately $2 million. The Company shall be responsible for EF Hutton’s external counsel’s legal costs irrespective of whether the Offering is consummated or not, subject to a maximum of $50,000 in the event that there is not a Closing. The Company incurred $15,000 of expense during year ended November 30, 2022, and no payment was made as of February 28, 2023.

Lease Agreement

In December 2016, one of our subsidiaries entered into a lease agreement for its office space located in Cayman Islands for $30,000 per annum. The initial term of the agreement ended in December 2019, and the Company has renewed its office lease agreement for another

As such, this agreement does not contain a lease under ASC 842. The Company recognizes monthly license payments as incurred over the term of the arrangement.

Rent expense is classified within general and administrative expenses on a straight-line.

License Agreements

Mannin

On October 29, 2015, the Company entered into a Patent and Technology License and Purchase Option Agreement (“Exclusive License”) with a vendor whereby the Company was granted a worldwide, exclusive, license on, and option to, acquire certain intellectual property (“Mannin IP”) which initially focused on developing a first-in-class eye drop treatment for glaucoma within the four-year term of the Exclusive License.

On March 26, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to the Patent and Technology License and Purchase Option Agreement that it initially entered into with Mannin Research Inc. on October 29, 2015 (the “Mannin Agreement”). Under such amendment, the term of the option granted under the Mannin Agreement was extended to October 29, 2021, in exchange for the Company issuing 100,000 shares to Mannin Research Inc. on April 9, 2019.

On September 1, 2020, the Company further amended the license agreement allowing Mannin to grant an exclusive license to Mannin GmbH (its wholly owned German subsidiary) in order fully take advantage of the German government grant to Mannin. The agreement also confirms our ongoing investment into the Tie2 platform to create, and therefore maintain economic value for us and our shareholders.

On May 26, 2023, the Company filed an annual report on Form 10-K and noted that that annual report does not meet fully the requirements of annual reports as required by Form 10-K. Particularly, the Company noted that the financial statements included in that annual report have not been audited and no audit report regarding such financial statements was included therein. The financial statements included in the annual report are not the type of financial statement that an investor would expect to see from a company that has had its financial statements audited by an independent accounting firm per the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The recently filed annual report is unaudited, incomplete and should not be relied upon as accurate, timely or fit for any purpose.

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

Forward-Looking Statements

This unreviewed Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements about our business, financial condition and prospects that reflect management’s assumptions and beliefs based on information currently available. The expectations indicated by such forward-looking statements might not be realized. If any of our management’s assumptions should prove incorrect, or if any of the risks and uncertainties underlying such expectations should materialize, our actual results may differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.

The key factors that are not within our control and that may have a direct bearing on operating results include, but are not limited to, acceptance of our services, our ability to create and expand our customer base, managements’ ability to raise capital in the future, the retention of key employees and changes in the regulation of our industry.

There may be other risks and circumstances that management may be unable to predict. When used in this Quarterly Report, words such as, “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although there may be certain forward-looking statements not accompanied by such expressions.

Overview

Q BioMed Inc. (or “the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 22, 2013 and is a commercial stage biomedical acceleration and development company focused on licensing, acquiring and providing strategic resources to life sciences and healthcare companies. We intend to mitigate risk by acquiring multiple assets over time and across a broad spectrum of healthcare related products, companies and sectors. We intend to develop these assets to provide returns via organic growth, revenue production, out-licensing, sale or spin out. Our mission is to solve problems by accelerating the development of important therapies and availability of those therapies to patients.

Our intent is to monetize the current pipeline and build a platform for future growth. There are 4 areas of focus:. commercial product revenue growth, partnerships, joint venture equity value and future development platform. This quarter has been solely focused on maintaining our pipeline and looking for strategic capital or business partnerships and merger opportunities. The microcap biotechs have all been under pressure and we are one of many that have a capital requirement that is challenging to service given our debt and current lack of resources. We are determined to find a solution for the benefit of all our stakeholders.

Commercial Product

We believe that Strontium89 has great potential in the cancer palliation space. As a result of a world in which opioids were a treatment of choice for those patients unlucky enough to be diagnosed with painful metastatic cancers in the bone, we felt that Strontium89 had become a neglected and forgotten drug. We have stayed committed to our belief that Strontium89 was a valuable treatment and have focused on advancing that asset from concept, a neglected drug, to a fully approved, reimbursed commercial product. Since we acquired Strontium89, we have built an infrastructure to commercialize the product, including manufacturing, branding, pharmacovigilance, reporting, federal supply contract, and entering into distribution agreements in the United States and several other countries.

Partnership Opportunities

UTTROSIDE B – Liver Cancer Chemotherapeutic

Along with our developmental partners, we are advancing an innovative treatment for liver cancer, a disease indication that currently has a high unmet need. This molecule was identified in India, traditionally used to treat liver ailments. Subsequent research on that isolated molecule showed promising data, indicating that the molecule was more cytotoxic, killing cancer cells more effectively, in liver cancer cells lines than the current first line liver cancer chemotherapeutic. We have advanced this from a naturally occurring unsustainable plant product to a commercially viable and scalable synthetic drug candidate. This provides an opportunity to partner this asset with a larger oncology focused institution. Currently, there are only two approved first-line liver cancer therapies. We have received Orphan Drug Designation, and we are now preparing to advance this toward clinical partnership. We have been successfully prosecuting our patent portfolio and have received patents or notice of allowance in several countries including Japan, Canada, USA and just recently Europe. We are looking for clinical partnerships to advance this product towards the patients that need it.

Development Platform - Rare Disease Focus

During 2023 we will focus our future development platform on the Rare Disease Space. This focuses our resources on an area in which we already have a presence. Our liver cancer drug candidate, Uttroside B, has already received Orphan Drug Designation. We expect to partner this asset in 2023 and will grow our development platform through in-licensing or acquisition once we have the capital to do so.

This rare disease platform will also complement our early-stage treatment for young minimally verbal children on the Autism Spectrum.

Corporate Strategic Goals

Our mission is to solve problems by accelerating the development of important therapies and the availability of those therapies to patients. We have been busy building a portfolio that we believe has significant value ranging from blockbuster potential drugs to revenue-producing opportunities. Lack of capital is our rate limiting factor and we are engaging in efforts along with our bankers and consultants to find both capital and strategic opportunities to unlock the potential in our pipeline.

Financial Overview

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported revenue generated and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such differences may be material. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates. Other than as set out in Note 3 to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, if anything, we believe there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies as described in the Form 10-K.

Net Sales

During the three months ended February 28, 2023 and 2022, we recognized approximately no sales and $75,000, respectively, of revenue from sales of Strontium89. The decrease was due to less vials were sold during the three months ended February 28, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Cost of Sales

During the three months ended February 28, 2023 and 2022, we recognized approximately 3,000 and $74,000, respectively, in cost of sales. These costs were related to raw materials cost, manufacturing cost, handling cost and write-offs of expired inventory.

Operating expenses

We incur various costs and expenses in the execution of our business. The decrease in operating expenses was mainly due to a lower burn and scaled back operations due to lack of available capital. We had an approximate $62,000 less costs from marketing, $465,000 less costs from legal and other professional services during the three months ended February 28, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year.

During the three months ended February 28, 2023 and 2022, we incurred net losses of approximately $0.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Our management expects to continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future, due to our need to continue to establish a broader pipeline of assets, expenditure on R&D and to implement other aspects of our business plan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

We have not yet established a significant ongoing source of revenues and must cover our operating through debt and equity financings to allow us to continue as a going concern. We had approximately $23,000 in cash as of February 28, 2023. Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on our ability to obtain adequate capital to fund operating losses until we generate adequate cash flows from operations to fund our operating costs and obligations. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations.

We depend upon our ability, and will continue to attempt, to secure equity and/or debt financing. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Our management determined that there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the consolidated financial statements were issued, and management’s concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern within the year following this report persist.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

Obligations and Commitments

Legal

Periodically, we review the status of significant matters, if any exist, and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal claim is considered probable and the amount can be estimated, we accrue a liability for the estimated loss. Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based on the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, we reassess the potential liability related to pending claims and litigation.

Advisory Agreements

We entered into customary consulting arrangements with various counterparties to provide consulting services, business development and investor relations services, pursuant to which we agreed to issue shares of common stock as services are received.

Lease Agreement

In December 2016, we entered into a lease agreement for office space located in Cayman Islands for $30,000 per annum. The initial term of the agreement ended in December 2019 and has been further renewed in 2023 for another three years, at a reduced rate of $15000 per year. This agreement does not identify a specific asset and does not convey the use of substantially all of the shared office capacity. As such, this agreement does not contain a lease under ASC 842. We recognize monthly license payments as incurred over the term of the arrangement.

Rent expense is classified within general and administrative expenses on a straight-line basis.

License Agreements

Mannin

On October 29, 2015, we entered into a Patent and Technology License and Purchase Option Agreement (“Exclusive License”) with a vendor whereby we were granted a worldwide, exclusive, license on, and option to, acquire certain intellectual property (“Mannin IP”) which initially focused on developing a first-in-class eye drop treatment for glaucoma within the four-year term of the Exclusive License. Pursuant to the exclusive license from Mannin, we may purchase the Mannin IP within six years of entry into the agreement. During the

three months ended Fe, we respectively incurred approximately $0.8 million and $1.0 million of research and development expenses under our license with Mannin. The purchase option under the license agreement has now expired.

On March 26, 2019, we entered into an amendment to the Patent and Technology License and Purchase Option Agreement that it initially entered into with Mannin Research Inc. on October 29, 2015 (the “Mannin Agreement”). Under such amendment, the term of the option granted under the Mannin Agreement was extended to October 29, 2021 in exchange for our issuing 100,000 shares to Mannin Research Inc. on April 9, 2019.

On September 1, 2020, we further amended the license agreement allowing Mannin to grant an exclusive license to Mannin GmbH (its wholly owned German subsidiary) in order fully take advantage of the German government grant to Mannin. The agreement also confirms our ongoing investment into the Tie2 platform to create, and therefore maintain economic value for us and our shareholders. We have agreed to contribute funds in Mannin GmbH. We paid Mannin $1.5 million in cash payable in three instalments. In addition, we paid to Mannin $0.75 million in shares of our common stock valued as of June 15, 2020, in full satisfaction of R&D payables, contracted by Mannin in development of the Tie2 platform. We continue to have the right to 100% of the revenues derived from the Mannin Tie2 technology platform, until such time that Mannin and its subsidiaries have independently raised at least $2 million in funds, expected to happen in 2022, at which time the parties have agreed to a profit share structure reducing our future capital commitments to Mannin R&D.

During the period ended February 28, 2023 and year ended November 30, 2022, the Company incurred approximately $0.0 and $0.1 million, respectively, in research and development expenses to fund the costs of development of the eye drop treatment for glaucoma pursuant to the Exclusive License.

Washington University

On March 9, 2019, the Company entered into an Exclusive License Agreement with Washington University for license of a diagnostic marker for determining the severity of glaucoma using the expression levels of Growth Differentiation Factor 15. The agreement calls for the Company to pay an initial fee of approximately $88,000, pay annual maintenance fees ranging from $15,000 to $75,000, make additional payments upon the following milestones:

The first commercial sale of a companion diagnostic product;
Initiation of a clinical trial for a diagnostic product to support FDA PMA or 510(k) regulatory approval or the foreign equivalent;
PMA or 510(k) regulatory approval by the FDA or the foreign equivalent; and
The first commercial sale of a diagnostic product.

In addition to the above payments, royalty payments based upon sales of a companion diagnostic product or diagnostic product are required.

Related Party Transactions

We entered into consulting agreements with certain management personnel and stockholders for consulting and legal services. Consulting and legal expenses resulting from such agreements were included within general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as follows (amounts are rounded to nearest thousand):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management is required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports, filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 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 chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

As required by the SEC Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b), an evaluation is required to be carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses described below:

1.

Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible, however segregation of duties has been implemented, with regards to the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions performed by separate individuals.

2.

We do not have in-house personnel with sufficient experience with United States generally accepted accounting principles to address complex transactions. These functions have been outsourced.

3.

We have determined that oversight over our external financial reporting and internal control over our financial reporting is ineffective as we do not have an audit committee in place.

4.

We have not had our independent accountants audit our financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2022 and provide us with a report for such audit.

5.

We have not had our independent accountants review our financial statements for the three months ended February 28, 2023.

To address these material weaknesses, management engaged financial consultants, performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. We plan to enhance our processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements to better evaluate and understand the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial statements. Our plans at this time include providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects. We have engaged accounting and compliance consultants to review our internal controls over financial reporting and other compliance requirements.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

As previously reported, on July 12, 2022 the Company was notified that WSI PBG, LLC (“WSI”) filed a complaint against the Company seeking to recover $196,216 in unpaid consulting fees, plus costs and expenses of litigation.  The Company elected not to litigate this suit so as not to increase its liability exposure.  Not unexpectedly, on August 24, 2022, WSI obtained a judgment against the Company in the amount of $203,784.  The Company is exploring its options in addressing this judgment, including terms of settlement that would result in a satisfaction of this Judgment over a limited period of time.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Although risk factors are not required for smaller reporting companies, we stress the following risk:

We note that neither this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) nor our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2022 (“Annual Report”) fully meets the requirements of their respective forms. Particularly, we note that the financial statements included in the Annual Report were not audited and no audit report regarding such financial statements was included therein. Additionally, we note that the financial statements included in the Quarterly Report have not been reviewed and approved by an independent public accounting firm. Although we believe that the financial statements in the Annual Report and Quarterly Report satisfy the current public information requirements of Rule 144(c)(2), the financial statements in the Annual Report are not the type of financial statements that an investor would expect to see from a company that has had its financial statements audited by an independent public accounting firm per the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and the financial statements in the Quarterly Report are not the type of financial statements that an investor would expect to see from a company that has had its financial statements reviewed by an independent public accounting firm per the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Neither the Annual Report nor the Quarterly Report is complete and neither should not be relied upon as accurate, timely or fit for any purpose. Although the Company intends to amend its Annual Report and this Quarterly Report as soon as practicable and invites any inquiries to be directed to Company management, it may not be able to ever amend the Annual Report or this Quarterly Report.
