SIGYN THERAPEUTICS, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

 

Corporate History and Background

 

Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sigyn” or the “Company”) is a development-stage medical technology company headquartered in San Diego, California. Our focus is directed toward the creation of therapeutic solutions that address unmet needs in global health.

 

Sigyn Therapy™ is a broad-spectrum blood purification technology to address life-threatening infections and inflammatory disorders for which effective drug therapies are not available. Sigyn Therapy extracts pathogen sources of life-threatening inflammation in concert with dampening down the dysregulated overproduction of inflammatory cytokines (the cytokine storm), which plays a prominent role in each of our candidate treatment indications.

 

Based on its unprecedented ability to isolate and remove viral pathogens, bacterial toxins, and inflammatory cytokines from the bloodstream, Sigyn Therapy is a candidate to treat pathogen-associated sepsis (leading cause of hospital deaths), community acquired pneumonia (a leading cause of death among infectious diseases), emerging pandemic threats, and hyperinflammation & endotoxemia in end-stage renal disease patients.

 

Since initiating the development of Sigyn Therapy in 2020, we completed a series of in vitro studies that demonstrated the ability of Sigyn Therapy to extract pathogen sources of inflammation from human blood plasma. These include endotoxin (a gram-negative bacterial toxin), peptidoglycan and lipoteichoic acid (gram-positive bacterial toxins), and viral pathogens, including COVID-19.

 

We also completed studies that demonstrated the ability of Sigyn Therapy to extract inflammatory cytokines from human blood plasma. These include interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-a). In a related study, we reduced the circulating presence of 104 nanometer liposomes as a model to evaluate the potential of Sigyn Therapy to address CytoVesicles that transport inflammatory cytokine cargos throughout the bloodstream.

 

Additionally, we validated the rapid reduction of hepatic (liver) toxins from human blood plasma, which included ammonia, bile acid and bilirubin. Based on these outcomes, we may further investigate the potential of Sigyn Therapy to address acute forms of liver failure.

 

Subsequent to our in vitro milestone achievements, we completed in vivo animal studies at the University of Michigan, which demonstrated Sigyn Therapy to be well tolerated. In the studies, Sigyn Therapy was administered via standard dialysis machines utilizing conventional blood-tubing sets, for periods up to six hours in eight porcine (pig) subjects. Important criteria for treatment safety, including hemodynamic parameters, serum chemistries and hematologic measurements, were stable across all eight subjects.

 

The data resulting from our in vivo and in vitro studies is being incorporated into an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) that we are drafting for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to support the potential initiation of human feasibility studies in the United States.

Merger Transaction

 

On October 19, 2020, Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”) formerly known as Reign Resources Corporation, completed a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc., a private entity incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 19, 2019.

 

In the Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of privately held Sigyn Therapeutics common stock in exchange for 75% of the fully paid and nonassessable shares of our common stock outstanding (the “Acquisition”). In conjunction with the transaction, we changed our name from Reign Resources Corporation to Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. pursuant to an amendment to our articles of incorporation that was filed with the State of Delaware. Subsequently, our trading symbol was changed to SIGY. The Acquisition was treated by the Company as a reverse merger in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). For accounting purposes, Sigyn is considered to have acquired Reign Resources Corporation as the accounting acquirer because: (i) Sigyn stockholders own 75% of the combined company, on an as-converted basis, immediately following the Closing Date, (ii) Sigyn directors hold a majority of board seats in the combined company and (iii) Sigyn management held all key positions in the management of the combined company. Accordingly, Sigyn’s historical results of operations will replace Reign Resources Corporation’s historical results of operations for all periods prior to the Acquisition and, for all periods following the Acquisition, the results of operations of the combined company will be included in the Company’s financial statements. The Acquisition was treated as a “tax-free exchange” under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and resulted in the private Sigyn Therapeutics corporate entity (established on October 29, 2019) to become a wholly owned subsidiary of Reign Resources Corporation. Among the conditions for closing the acquisition, the Reign Resources Corporation extinguished all previously reported liabilities, its preferred class of shares, and all stock purchase options. As a result, the reported liabilities totaling $3,429,516 were converted into a total of 7,907,351 common shares. Additionally, assets held on the books of Reign Resources Corporation, such as Gem inventory, was kept in the Company and therefore recorded as assets on the Share Exchange date. Upon the closing of the Acquisition, we appointed James A. Joyce and Craig P. Roberts to serve as members of our Board of Directors.

 

As of August 15, 2022, we have a total 37,295,813 shares issued and outstanding, of which 11,655,813 shares are held by non-affiliate stockholders.

 

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the periods presented.

 

The Company currently operates in one business segment. The Company is not organized by market and is managed and operated as one business. A single management team reports to the chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, who comprehensively manages the entire business. The Company does not currently operate any separate lines of businesses or separate business entities.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $5,610,130 at June 30, 2022 and $4,265,759 at December 31, 2021, had a working capital deficit of $1,258,926 and $341,187 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, had a net loss of $1,344,371 and $1,111,543 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and net cash used in operating activities of $854,308 and $681,534 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with no revenue earned since inception, and a lack of operational history. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

While the Company is attempting to expand operations and increase revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be significant enough to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a private offering or an asset sale transaction. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While management believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds or transact an asset sale, there can be no assurances to that effect or on terms acceptable to the Company. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate revenues.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The more significant estimates and assumptions by management include among others: common stock valuation, and the recoverability of intangibles. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.

 

Cash

 

The Company’s cash is held in bank accounts in the United States and is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any cash losses.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under an asset and liability approach. This process involves calculating the temporary and permanent differences between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which would be recorded on the Balance Sheets in accordance with ASC 740, which established financial accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income must be assessed and, to the extent that recovery is not likely, a valuation allowance is established. Changes in the valuation allowance in a period are recorded through the income tax provision in the consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s consolidated financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, ASC 740-10 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10 and currently, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

Advertising expenses are recorded as general and administrative expenses when they are incurred. The Company had advertising expenses of $131 and $381 and $82,250 and $164,500 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Inventories

 

In conjunction with the October 19, 2020 Share Exchange Agreement, the Company kept the gem inventory of Reign Resources Corporation. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value) on a lot basis each quarter. A lot is determined by the cut, clarity, size, and weight of the sapphires. Inventory consists of sapphire jewels that meet rigorous grading criteria and are of cuts and sizes most commonly used in the jewelry industry. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company carried primarily loose sapphire jewels, jewelry for sale on our website, and jewelry held as samples. Samples are used to show potential customers what the jewelry would look like. Promotional items given to customers that are not expected to be returned will be removed from inventory and expensed. There have been no promotional items given to customers as of June 30, 2022. The Company performs its own in-house assessment based on gem guide and the current market price for metals to value its inventory on an annual basis or if circumstances dictate sooner to determine if the estimated fair value is greater or less than cost. In addition, the inventory is reviewed each quarter by the Company against industry prices from gem-guide and if there is a potential impairment, the Company would appraise the inventory. The estimated fair value is subject to significant change due to changes in popularity of cut, perceived grade of the clarity of the sapphires, the number, type and size of inclusions, the availability of other similar quality and size sapphires, and other factors. As a result, the internal assessed value of the sapphires could be significantly lower from the current estimated fair value. Loose sapphire jewels do not degrade in quality over time.

 

Based on the significant advancement of Sigyn Therapy, the Company decided in the 4th quarter of 2021 to assess the value of retail business operations that were a focus of the Company prior to the merger transaction consummated on October 19, 2020.

 

Related to this assessment, management determined the wholesale liquidation value of its sapphire gem inventory to be 5-10% of the previously reported retail value, based on communications with certified gemologists, the variance between retail and wholesale valuations, and current market conditions. As a result, the Company has valued the inventory at $50,000 and recorded an impairment of assets of $536,047 in the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally five years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist primarily of website development costs. Our intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of three years.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

We periodically evaluate whether the carrying value of property, equipment and intangible assets has been impaired when circumstances indicate the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable. The carrying amount is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the carrying value is not recoverable, the impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value.

 

Our impairment analyses require management to apply judgment in estimating future cash flows as well as asset fair values, including forecasting useful lives of the assets, assessing the probability of different outcomes, and selecting the discount rate that reflects the risk inherent in future cash flows. If the carrying value is not recoverable, we assess the fair value of long-lived assets using commonly accepted techniques, and may use more than one method, including, but not limited to, recent third-party comparable sales and discounted cash flow models. If actual results are not consistent with our assumptions and estimates, or our assumptions and estimates change due to new information, we may be exposed to an impairment charge in the future. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had not experienced impairment losses on its long-lived assets.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The provisions of accounting guidance, FASB Topic ASC 825 requires all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, and defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximated carrying value due to the short maturity of the instruments, quoted market prices or interest rates which fluctuate with market rates.

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows:

 

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

 

  Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities

 

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. There were no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. There have been no transfers between levels.

 

Debt

 

The Company issues debt that may have separate warrants, conversion features, or no equity-linked attributes.

 

Embedded Conversion Features

 

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates all of it financial instruments, including stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income.

 

For option-based simple derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulations to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. There were no derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and no charges or credits to income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount

 

The Company may record debt issue costs and/or debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt. These costs may be paid in the form of cash or equity (such as warrants). These costs are amortized to interest expense through the maturity of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs prior to maturity a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed. Any unamortized debt issue costs and debt discount are presented net of the related debt on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Original Issue Discount

 

For certain convertible debt issued, the Company may provide the debt holder with an original issue discount. The original issue discount would be recorded to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note and is amortized to interest expense through the maturity of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs prior to maturity a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed. Any unamortized original issue discounts are presented net of the related debt on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

If the conversion feature does not qualify for either the derivative treatment or as a BCF, the convertible debt is treated as traditional debt.

 

Basic and diluted earnings per share

 

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares (including common stock subject to redemption) plus dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the reporting period. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same since net losses for all periods presented and including the additional potential common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), we measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

 

Non-Employee Stock-Based Compensation

 

In accordance with ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, issuances of the Company’s common stock or warrants for acquiring goods or services are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued to consultants or vendors is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instruments is reached (a “performance commitment” which would include a penalty considered to be of a magnitude that is a sufficiently large disincentive for nonperformance) or (ii) the date at which performance is complete. Although situations may arise in which counter performance may be required over a period of time, the equity award granted to the party performing the service is fully vested and non-forfeitable on the date of the agreement. As a result, in this situation in which vesting periods do not exist as the instruments fully vested on the date of agreement, the Company determines such date to be the measurement date and will record the estimated fair market value of the instruments granted as a prepaid expense and amortize such amount to general and administrative expense in the accompanying statement of operations over the contract period. When it is appropriate for the Company to recognize the cost of a transaction during financial reporting periods prior to the measurement date, for purposes of recognition of costs during those periods, the equity instrument is measured at the then-current fair values at each of those interim financial reporting dates.

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been made to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for three months ended March 31, 2021, to reclass $93,266 of costs to research and development previously classified in general and administrative. In addition, an adjustment has been made to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2021, to reclass $1,072 of other current liabilities previously classified in accrued payroll and payroll taxes.

 

Concentrations, Risks, and Uncertainties

 

Business Risk

 

Substantial business risks and uncertainties are inherent to an entity, including the potential risk of business failure.

 

The Company is headquartered and operates in the United States. To date, the Company has generated no revenues from operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital and failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Also, the success of the Company’s operations is subject to numerous contingencies, some of which are beyond management’s control. Currently, these contingencies include general economic conditions, price of components, competition, and governmental and political conditions.

 

Interest rate risk

 

Financial assets and liabilities do not have material interest rate risk.

 

Credit risk

 

The Company is exposed to credit risk from its cash in banks. The credit risk on cash in banks is limited because the counterparties are recognized financial institutions.

 

Seasonality

 

The business is not subject to substantial seasonal fluctuations.

 

Major Suppliers

 

Sigyn Therapy is comprised of components that are supplied by various industry vendors. Additionally, the Company is reliant on third-party organizations to conduct clinical development studies that are necessary to advance Sigyn Therapy toward the marketplace.

 

Should the relationship with an industry vendor or third-party clinical development organization be interrupted or discontinued, it is believed that alternate component suppliers and third-party clinical development organizations could be identified to support the continued advancement of Sigyn Therapy.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

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. The Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06 in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, coinciding with the standard’s effective date, and had an immaterial impact from this standard.

 

Other recently issued accounting updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 8 – OPERATING LEASES

 

On May 27, 2021, the Company entered into a sixty-three month lease for its corporate office at $5,955 per month commencing June 15, 2021 maturing September 30, 2026. The Company accounts for this lease in accordance with ASC 842. Adoption of the standard resulted in the initial recognition of operating lease ROU asset of $290,827 and operating lease liability of $290,827 as of June 15, 2021.

 

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The operating lease ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our variable lease payments primarily consist of maintenance and other operating expenses from our real estate leases. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. We have elected to account for these lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. We are also electing not to apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases of twelve months or less and instead will recognize lease payments as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The components of lease expense and supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the period are as follows:

 

In accordance with ASC 842, the components of lease expense were as follows:

 

                     
   Six Months ended June 30,   Three Months ended June 30, 
   2022   2021   2022   2021

NOTE 10 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (EPS) computations.

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same since net losses for all periods presented and including the additional potential common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.

 

22
 

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share:

 SCHEDULE OF COMPUTATION OF BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME PER SHARE

                     
   Six Months Ended June 30,   Three Months Ended June 30,

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

 

There is limited historical financial information about us on which to base an evaluation of our performance. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, and possible cost overruns due to increases in the cost of services. To become profitable and competitive, we must receive additional capital. We have no assurance that future financing will materialize. If that financing is not available, we may be unable to continue operations.

 

Business Overview

 

Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sigyn” or the “Company”) is a development-stage medical technology company headquartered in San Diego, California. Our focus is directed toward the creation of therapeutic solutions that address unmet needs in global health.

 

Sigyn Therapy™ is a broad-spectrum blood purification technology to address life-threatening infections and inflammatory disorders for which effective drug therapies are not available. Sigyn Therapy extracts pathogen sources of life-threatening inflammation in concert with dampening down the dysregulated overproduction of inflammatory cytokines (the cytokine storm), which plays a prominent role in each of our candidate treatment indications.

 

Based on its unprecedented ability to isolate and remove viral pathogens, bacterial toxins, and inflammatory cytokines from the bloodstream, Sigyn Therapy is a candidate to treat pathogen-associated sepsis (leading cause of hospital deaths), community acquired pneumonia (a leading cause of death among infectious diseases), emerging pandemic threats, and hyperinflammation & endotoxemia in end-stage renal disease patients.

 

Since initiating the development of Sigyn Therapy in 2020, we completed a series of in vitro studies that demonstrated the ability of Sigyn Therapy to extract pathogen sources of inflammation from human blood plasma. These include endotoxin (a gram-negative bacterial toxin), peptidoglycan and lipoteichoic acid (gram-positive bacterial toxins), and viral pathogens, including COVID-19.

 

We also completed studies that demonstrated the ability of Sigyn Therapy to extract inflammatory cytokines from human blood plasma. These include interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-a). In a related study, we reduced the circulating presence of 104 nanometer liposomes as a model to evaluate the potential of Sigyn Therapy to address CytoVesicles that transport inflammatory cytokine cargos throughout the bloodstream.

 

Additionally, we validated the rapid reduction of hepatic (liver) toxins from human blood plasma, which included ammonia, bile acid and bilirubin. Based on these outcomes, we may further investigate the potential of Sigyn Therapy to address acute forms of liver failure.

 

Subsequent to our in vitro milestone achievements, we completed in vivo animal studies at the University of Michigan, which demonstrated Sigyn Therapy to be well tolerated. In the studies, Sigyn Therapy was administered via standard dialysis machines utilizing conventional blood-tubing sets, for periods up to six hours in eight porcine (pig) subjects. Important criteria for treatment safety, including hemodynamic parameters, serum chemistries and hematologic measurements, were stable across all eight subjects.

 

The data resulting from our in vivo and in vitro studies is being incorporated into an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) that we are drafting for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to support the potential initiation of human feasibility studies in the United States.

Sigyn Therapy Mechanism of Action

 

To overcome the limitations of previous drug and device therapies, we designed Sigyn Therapy to have an expansive- mechanism of action. Pre-clinical invitro studies have demonstrated the ability of Sigyn Therapy the deplete the presence of viral pathogens, bacterial toxins, and inflammatory mediators from human blood plasma. Such capabilities establish Sigyn Therapy as a candidate to treat pathogen-associated conditions that precipitate Sepsis, Community Acquired Pneumonia, Emerging Bioterror and Pandemic threats, and End-Stage Renal Disease with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production.

 

To support widespread implementation, Sigyn Therapy is a single-use disposable device that is deployable on the global infrastructure of hemodialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) machines already located in hospitals and clinics. To reduce the risk of blood clotting and hemolysis, the anticoagulant heparin is administered, which is the standard-of-care drug administered in dialysis and CRRT therapies. During animal studies conducted at the University of Michigan, Sigyn Therapy was deployed for use on a hemodialysis machine manufactured by Fresenius Medical Care, the global leader in the dialysis industry.

 

Incorporated with Sigyn Therapy is a “cocktail” of adsorbent components formulated to optimize the broad-spectrum extraction of therapeutic targets from the bloodstream. In the medical field, the term “cocktail” is a reference to the simultaneous administration of multiple drugs (a drug cocktail) with differing mechanisms of actions. While drug cocktails are emerging as potential mechanisms to treat cancer, they are proven life-saving countermeasures to treat HIV and Hepatitis-C viral infections. However, dosing of multi-drug agent cocktails is limited by toxicity and adverse events that can result from deleterious drug interactions.

 

Sigyn Therapy is not constrained by such limitations as active adsorbent components are maintained within Sigyn Therapy and not introduced into the body. As a result, we are able to incorporate a substantial quantity of adsorbent components to capture therapeutic targets outside of the body as they circulate through Sigyn Therapy. Each adsorbent component has differing capture characteristics that contribute to optimizing the ability of Sigyn Therapy to address a broad-spectrum of pathogenic and inflammatory targets that precipitate the cytokine storm that underlies sepsis and other life-threatening inflammatory disorders.

 

The adsorbent components incorporated within Sigyn Therapy provide more than 200,000 square meters (~50 acres) of surface area on which to adsorb and remove circulating viruses, bacterial toxins, and inflammatory mediators. Beyond an immense capacity to deplete circulating therapeutic targets, Sigyn Therapy is also highly efficient. Based on blood flow rates of 350ml/min, a patient’s entire bloodstream can pass through Sigyn Therapy more than fifteen times during a single four-hour treatment period.

 

From a technical perspective, Sigyn Therapy is a 325mm long polycarbonate column that internally contains polyethersulphone hollow fibers that have porous walls have a median pore size of ~200 nanometers (nm). As blood flows into Sigyn Therapy, plasma and therapeutic targets below 200nm travel through the porous walls as a result of blood-side pressure. As the hollow fiber bundle within Sigyn Therapy creates a resistance to the flow of blood, a pressure drop is created along the length of the device such that the blood-side pressure is higher at the blood inlet and lower at the blood outlet. This allows for plasma and therapeutic targets to flow away from the blood and into the extra-lumen space (inside the polycarbonate shell, yet outside the hollow-fiber bundle) to interact with Sigyn Therapy’s adsorbent components in a low shear force environment. In the distal third of the fiber bundle, the pressure gradient is reversed, which allows for plasma to flow back through the fiber walls to be reconvened into the bloodstream without the presence of therapeutic targets that were captured by adsorbent components housed in the extra-lumen space of Sigyn Therapy.

 

Overview of Candidate Treatment Indications

 

Based on data resulting from in vitro blood purification studies, our candidate treatment indications include, but are not limited to; pathogen-associated conditions that precipitate Sepsis (leading cause of hospital deaths worldwide), Community Acquired Pneumonia (a leading cause of death among infectious diseases), Emerging Bioterror and Pandemic threats, and End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production. However, there is no assurance that human feasibility and pivotal studies will demonstrate Sigyn Therapy to be a safe and efficacious treatment for any of our treatment indications.

End-Stage Renal Disease Endotoxemia and Inflammation

 

According to the United States Renal Data System (USRDS), more than 550,000 individuals suffer from end-stage renal disease (ESRD), which results in approximately 85 million kidney dialysis treatments being administered in the United States each year. Persistent inflammation is a hallmark feature of ESRD as reflected by the excess production of inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), which contribute to increased all-cause mortality. ESRD inflammation also induces intestinal permeability, which allows endotoxin (gram-negative bacterial toxin) to translocate from the gut and into the bloodstream. Beyond fueling further inflammation, endotoxin is potent activator of sepsis, which can lead to multiple organ failure and death.

 

Sigyn Therapy establishes a candidate strategy to improve the health and quality-of-life of ESRD patients. Beyond its proven ability to deplete endotoxin, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 from human blood plasma, Sigyn Therapy can be administered in series with dialysis therapy.

 

We are currently drafting an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) related to a human feasibility study of Sigyn Therapy in End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production. As per the study protocol, Sigyn Therapy will be administered in combination with the regularly scheduled dialysis treatments of enrolled subjects. The primary study objective will be to evaluate the safety of Sigyn Therapy in health compromised ESRD patients. A secondary objective is to quantify changes in circulating levels of endotoxin, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) before and after each Sigyn Therapy administration. Endotoxin and excess TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production are commonly associated with each of our candidate treatment indications, including sepsis and community-acquired pneumonia.

 

Sepsis

 

Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. In January of 2020, a report entitled; “Global, Regional, and National Sepsis Incidence and Mortality, 1990-2017: Analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study,” was published in the Journal Lancet. The publication reported 48.9 million cases of sepsis and 11 million deaths in 2017. In that same year, an estimated 20.3 million sepsis cases and 2.9 million deaths were among children younger than 5-years old. The report included a reference that sepsis kills more people around the world than all forms of cancer combined. In the United States, sepsis was reported to be the most common cause of hospital deaths with an annual financial burden that exceeds $24 billion.

 

To date, more than 100 human studies have been conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of candidate drugs to treat sepsis. With one brief exception (Xigris, Eli Lilly), none of these studies resulted in a market cleared therapy.

 

As sepsis remains beyond the reach of single-target drugs, there is an emerging interest in multi-mechanism therapies that can target both inflammatory and pathogen associated targets. Sigyn Therapy addresses a broad-spectrum of pathogen sources and the resulting dysregulated cytokine production (the cytokine storm) that is the hallmark of sepsis. Additionally, we believe that inflammatory cytokine cargos transported by CytoVesicles may represent a novel, yet important therapeutic target.

 

Community Acquired Pneumonia

 

Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) represents a significant opportunity for Sigyn Therapy to reduce the occurrence of sepsis. CAP is a leading cause of death among infectious diseases, the leading cause of death in children under five years of age, and a catalyst for approximately 50% of sepsis and septic shock cases.

 

In the United States, more than 1.5 million individuals are hospitalized with CAP each year, resulting in an annual financial burden that exceeds $10 billion.

 

Statistically, a therapeutic strategy that reduced the incidence of CAP related sepsis and septic shock would save thousands of lives each year. In a study of 4,222 patients, the all-cause mortality for adult patients with CAP was reported to be 6.5% during hospitalization. However, the mortality of patients with CAP related sepsis and septic shock rose to 51% during hospitalization.

 

CAP is further complicated by the fact that the pathogen sources of CAP are identified in only 38% of patients, based on a study of 2,259 subjects whose pneumonia diagnosis was confirmed by chest x-ray. Of the source pathogens identified in the study, ninety seven percent (97%) were either viral or bacterial in origin.

 

To reduce the occurrence of CAP related sepsis and septic shock, Sigyn Therapy offers a broad-spectrum mechanism to reduce the circulating presence of viral pathogens and bacterial toxins before and if they are identified as the CAP pathogen source. Additionally, Sigyn Therapy may help to control the excess production of inflammatory cytokines (the cytokine storm) that precipitate sepsis and septic shock.

Emerging Pandemic Threats

 

Covid-19 affirmed the use of extracorporeal blood purification as a first-line countermeasures to treat an emerging pandemic threat not addressed with an approved drug or vaccine at the outset of an outbreak. On March 24, 2020, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) declared that the emergence of COVID-19 justified the Emergency-Use Authorization (EUA) of drugs, biological products, and medical devices to combat the pandemic. Within a month of this HHS declaration, FDA awarded an EUA to blood purification therapies from Terumo BCT, ExThera Medical Corporation, CytoSorbents, Inc., and Baxter Healthcare Corporation. In connection with these authorizations, FDA published a statement that blood purification devices may be effective at treating patients with confirmed COVID-19 by reducing various pathogens, cytokines, and other inflammatory mediators from the bloodstream.

 

Consistent with FDA’s statement, Sigyn Therapy is designed to address pathogen sources of life-threatening inflammation in concert with the broad-spectrum depletion of cytokines and other inflammatory mediators from the bloodstream. Based on this mechanism, we believe that Sigyn Therapy provides a candidate strategy to address future pandemic outbreaks, which are increasingly being fueled by a confluence of global warming, urban crowding, and intercontinental travel.

 

Additionally, as a majority of infectious human viruses are not addressed with a corresponding drug or vaccine, there may be an ongoing need for blood purification technologies that offer to reduce the severity of infection and mitigate the excess production of inflammatory cytokines (the cytokine storm) associated with high mortality in non-pandemic viral infections. In this regard, we believe Sigyn Therapy also aligns with HHS initiatives established through the Public Health Emergency Medical Countermeasure Enterprise (PHEMCE) that support the development of broad-spectrum medical countermeasures that can mitigate the impact of an emerging pandemic or bioterror threat, yet also have viability in established disease indications.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $5,610,130 at June 30, 2022, had a working capital deficit of $1,258,926 and $341,187 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, had a net loss of $666,325 and $1,344,371 and $649,861 and $1,111,543 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and net cash used in operating activities of $854,308 and $681,534 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with no revenue earned since inception, and a lack of operational history. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

While the Company is attempting to expand operations and increase revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be significant enough to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a private offering or an asset sale transaction. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While management believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds or transact an asset sale, there can be no assurances to that effect or on terms acceptable to the Company. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate revenues.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

 

General – Overall, we had a decrease in cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $333,665 resulting from cash used in operating activities of $854,308 and cash used in investing activities of $859, offset partially by cash provided by financing activities of $521,502.

Net cash used in operations was primarily due to a net loss of $1,344,371 for six months ended June 30, 2022 and the changes in operating assets and liabilities of $282,531, primarily due to the increase in accounts payable of $259,464 and accrued payroll and payroll taxes of $68,770, offset partially by other current liabilities of $72 and other current assets of $45,631. In addition, net cash used in operating activities includes adjustments to reconcile net profit from depreciation expense of $3,423, amortization expense of $1,800, accretion of original issuance costs of $41,455, and accretion of debt discount of $160,854.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash used in operations was $681,534. Net cash used in operations was primarily due to a net loss of $1,111,543 for six months ended June 30, 2021 and the changes in operating assets and liabilities of $17,374, primarily due to the increase in accounts payable of $24,661, accrued payroll and payroll taxes of $5,020, and other current liabilities of $1,026, offset partially by other current assets of $27,370 and other assets of $20,711. In addition, net cash used in operating activities includes adjustments to reconcile net profit from depreciation expense of $847, amortization expense of $14,406, stock issued for services of $164,500, accretion of original issuance costs of $30,986, and accretion of debt discount of $236,644.

 

Cash Flows from Investing Activities – For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $859 due to the purchase of property and equipment compared to cash used in investing activities of $2,871 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 due to the purchase of property and equipment.

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities – For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash provided by financing was $521,502, due to proceeds from short term convertible notes of $525,000 and fees associated with the filing of the Company’s Form S-1 of $3,498 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $1,660,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 due to proceeds from common stock issued for cash of $1,465,000 and short term convertible notes $250,000, and repayment of short term convertible notes of $55,000.

 

Financing – We expect that our current working capital position, together with our expected future cash flows from operations will be insufficient to fund our operations in the ordinary course of business, anticipated capital expenditures, debt payment requirements and other contractual obligations for at least the next twelve months. However, this belief is based upon many assumptions and is subject to numerous risks, and there can be no assurance that we will not require additional funding in the future.

 

We have no present agreements or commitments with respect to any material acquisitions of other businesses, products, product rights or technologies or any other material capital expenditures. However, we will continue to evaluate acquisitions of and/or investments in products, technologies, capital equipment or improvements or companies that complement our business and may make such acquisitions and/or investments in the future. Accordingly, we may need to obtain additional sources of capital in the future to finance any such acquisitions and/or investments. We may not be able to obtain such financing on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Due to the ongoing global economic crisis, we believe it may be difficult to obtain additional financing if needed. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in the case of equity financing.

 

Capital Expenditures

 

We expect to purchase approximately $30,000 of equipment in connection with the expansion of our business during the next twelve months.

 

Fiscal year end

 

Our fiscal year end is December 31.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2022, we have not entered into any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement with an entity unconsolidated under which it has:

 

  a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to the unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit;
     
  liquidity or market risk support to such entity for such assets;
     
  an obligation, including a contingent obligation, under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument; or
     
  an obligation, including a contingent obligation, arising out of a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that is held by, and material to us, where such entity provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to or engages in leasing, hedging, or research and development services with us.

 

Inflation

 

We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-l5(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in SEC Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, management identified deficiencies that were determined to be a material weakness.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-l5(f) of the Securities Exchange Act). Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) (2013). Based on that assessment, management believes that, as of June 30, 2022, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective based on the COSO criteria, due to the following material weaknesses listed below.

 

35
 

 

The specific material weaknesses identified by the company’s management as of end of the period covered by this report include the following:

 

  we have not performed a risk assessment and mapped our processes to control objectives;
  we have not implemented comprehensive entity-level internal controls;
  we have not implemented adequate system and manual controls; and
  we do not have sufficient segregation of duties. As such, the officers approve their own related business expense reimbursements

 

Despite the material weaknesses reported above, our management believes that our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and that this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report.

 

This report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this report.

 

Management’s Remediation Plan

 

The weaknesses and their related risks are not uncommon in a company of our size because of the limitations in the size and number of staff. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties has not always been possible and may not be economically feasible.

 

However, we plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes in the current fiscal year as resources allow:

 

  (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and implement modifications to our financial controls to address such inadequacies;
  (ii) hire a new Big 4 CFO with experience working in publicly traded companies and hire a staff person to support the CFO, which was accomplished in March 2022.

 

The remediation efforts set out herein will be implemented in the 2022 fiscal year. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

 

Management believes that despite our material weaknesses set forth above, our condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ending June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
