Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Nature of Business

For both IkT-148009 and IkT-001Pro, we have completed clinical batch manufacturing of a film-coated tablet formulation. The bioequivalence studies with IkT-001Pro have already implemented these tablets into the study. A pharmacokinetic bridging study with two different tablet formulations of IkT-148009 was completed in 2023.

Going Concern

The Company has recognized recurring losses. At March 31, 2024, the Company had working capital of $6,574,717, an accumulated deficit of $71,550,360, cash and cash equivalents of $2,353,346, marketable securities of $7,396,009 and accounts payable and accrued expenses of $3,801,344.

The future success of the Company is dependent on its ability to successfully obtain additional working capital, obtain regulatory approval for and successfully launch and commercialize its product candidates and to ultimately attain profitable operations. Historically, the Company has funded its operations primarily through cash received in connection with revenue from its various grant programs. In addition, in December 2020, June 2021 and January 2023, the Company raised approximately $14.6 million, $41.1 million and $8.5 million in net proceeds for working capital from its initial public offering (“IPO”), June 2021 Offering and January 2023 Offering, respectively.

The Company is subject to a variety of risks similar to other early-stage life science companies including, but not limited to, the successful development, regulatory approval, and market acceptance of the Company’s product candidates, development by its competitors of new technological innovations, protection of proprietary technology, and raising additional working capital. The Company has incurred significant research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses related to its product candidate programs and negative cash flows from operations. The Company anticipates costs and expenses to increase in the future as the Company continues to develop its product candidates.

The Company may seek to fund its operations through additional public equity, private equity, or debt financings, as well as other sources. However, the Company may be unable to raise additional working capital, or if it is able to raise additional capital, it may be unable to do so on commercially favorable terms. The Company’s failure to raise capital or enter into such other arrangements if and when needed would have a negative impact on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition and the Company’s ability to continue to develop its product candidates.

The Company estimates that its working capital at March 31, 2024 including the funds raised from the February 2024 At the Market Offering is sufficient to fund its normal operations through November 2024.

These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Management’s plan to alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt may include additional equity raises, suspending or delaying certain research projects and capital expenditures and eliminating certain future operating expenses in order to fund operations at reduced levels for the Company to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation of Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial statements and, in the opinion of management, include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods shown. The December 31, 2023 balance sheet was derived from December 31, 2023 audited financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. The condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which prescribes elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions in the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, IKT Securities Corporation, Inc., which was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in December 2021. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative US GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies and are generally adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended, or the JOBS Act. The JOBS Act permits an emerging growth company such as the Company to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected not to “opt out” of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company will adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard and will do so until such time that it either (i) irrevocably elects to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company.

On June 30, 2023, we effected a reverse stock split at the ratio of 1 post-split share for every 6 pre-split shares. All common stock, options, warrant amounts, per share information and references have been retroactively adjusted for all figures presented to reflect this split unless specifically stated otherwise.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company utilizes certain estimates in the determination of our liquidity and working capital adequacy, the fair value of its stock options and warrants, deferred tax valuation allowances and revenue recognition, to record expenses relating to research and development contracts and accrued expenses. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from such estimates.

New Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed below, the Company does not believe that the adoption of recently issued standards have or may have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not report any revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company derived 100% of its total revenue from a single source, the United States Government, in the form of federal research grants.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue from research and development grants under contracts with third parties that do not create customer-vendor relationships. The Company’s research and development grants are non-exchange transactions and are not within the scope of ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Contribution revenue earned from activities performed pursuant to research and development grants is reported as grant revenue in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Revenue from these grants is recognized as the Company incurs qualifying expenses as stipulated by the terms of the respective grant. Cash received from grants in advance of incurring qualifying expenses is recorded as deferred revenue. The Company records revenue and a corresponding receivable when qualifying costs are incurred before the grants are received.

Research and Development Costs

Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s product candidates are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including activities associated with performing services under grant revenue contracts and include salaries and benefits, stock compensation, research-related subcontractors and consultants, supplies and overhead costs. Advance payments made to suppliers and contract research organizations are classified as prepaid research and development and are expensed as research and development as the supplies are consumed and the contract services are provided. During the period ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 the Company incurred expenses of approximately $90 thousand and $0 thousand, respectively with a related party vendor included in research and development expenses. As at the period ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 the Company had a payable balance with a related party vendor of approximately $109 thousand and $57 thousand, respectively included in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Leases

The Company accounts for its leases under ASU 2021-09, ASU 2018-10, and ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). ASC 842 requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability for most lease arrangements on the Company's balance sheet. Under the standard, disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements to assist users of the financial statements with assessing the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases is required.

Leases are classified as either finance leases or operating leases. A lease is classified as a finance lease if any one of the following criteria are met: the lease transfers ownership of the asset by the end of the lease term, the lease contains an option to purchase the asset that is reasonably certain to be exercised, the lease term is for a major part of the remaining useful life of the asset or the present value of the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the asset. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not meet any of these criteria.

For all leases at the lease commencement date, a right-of-use asset and a lease liability are recognized. The right-of-use asset represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term. The lease liability represents the present value of the lease payments under the lease.

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which primarily comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred if any, less any lease incentives received. All right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the secured incremental borrowing rate for the same term as the underlying lease.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: the fixed noncancelable lease payments, payments for optional renewal periods where it is reasonably certain the renewal period will be exercised, and payments for early termination options unless it is reasonably certain the lease will not be terminated early.

Lease cost for operating leases consists of the lease payments plus any initial direct costs, primarily brokerage commissions, and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Included in lease cost are any variable lease payments incurred in the period that are not included in the initial lease liability and lease payments incurred in the period for any leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. Lease cost for finance leases consists of the amortization of the right-of-use asset on a straight-line basis over the lease term and interest expense determined on an amortized cost basis. The lease payments are allocated between a reduction of the lease liability and interest expense.

The Company has made an accounting policy election to not recognize leases with an initial term of 12 months or less within our condensed consolidated balance sheets and to recognize those lease payments on a straight-line basis in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss over the lease term.

Equipment and Improvements

Equipment and improvements are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method, allocating the cost of the assets over their estimated usefulness from three to five years for network equipment, office equipment, and furniture classified as fixed assets.


		Estimated Useful Economic Life
Leasehold property improvements, right of use assets		Lesser of lease term or useful life
Furniture and office equipment		3-5 years
Lab equipment		3 Years
IT equipment		3 years

Fair Value Measurement

The Company has certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value which have been classified as Level 1, 2 or 3 within the fair value hierarchy as described in the accounting standards for fair value measurements.

· Level 1 — Fair values are determined utilizing quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access;

· Level 2 — Fair values are determined by utilizing quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other market observable inputs such as interest rates, yield curves and foreign currency spot rates; and

· Level 3 — inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company’s financial assets, which include cash equivalents and marketable securities, have been initially valued at the transaction price, and subsequently revalued at the end of each reporting period, utilizing third-party pricing services. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income and market based approaches, to determine value and improvements are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.

Marketable Securities

The Company's marketable securities consist of U.S. Treasury securities with maturities of less than one year which are classified as available-for-sale and included in current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Available-for-sale debt securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of stockholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses, if any, are included in other income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Available-for-sale securities are reviewed for possible impairment at least quarterly, or more frequently if circumstances arise that may indicate impairment. When the fair value of the securities declines below the amortized cost basis, impairment is indicated and it must be determined whether it is other than temporary. Impairment is considered to be other than temporary if the Company: (i) intends to sell the security, (ii) will more likely than not be forced to sell the security before recovering its cost, or (iii) does not expect to recover the security’s amortized cost basis. If the decline in fair value is considered other than temporary, the cost basis of the security is adjusted to its fair market value and the realized loss is reported.

Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

On April 26, 2024, the Company received a notice of a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association from Pivot Holding LLC (“Pivot”), that alleges to be a successor in interest to Sphaera Pharma Pte. Ltd. (“Sphaera”), in connection with the Collaborative Research and Development Agreement dated February 29, 2012, as amended, between the Company and Sphaera. Pivot alleges breach of contract by the Company for failure to pay milestone payments and seeks damages of $1.625 million in milestone payments plus interest. The Company believes that Pivot’s claims are without merit and that the Company hasn’t owed and doesn’t owe any milestone payments to Pivot. The Company intends to vigorously dispute Pivot’s claims. The Company’s response to the demand for arbitration is due by June 17, 2024. The parties have agreed to mediate before arbitration.

Lease

On April 18, 2022, the Company entered into an operating lease agreement for office space at its new location in Lexington, Massachusetts (the "Office Lease"). On August 8, 2022, the Company commenced occupancy of the leased space. The lease runs through September 30, 2025. We have an option to extend the lease term for an additional three (3) years thereafter.

The Company accounts for the Office Lease under the provisions of ASU No. 2021-09, ASU 2018-10, and ASC 842. We recorded a right-of-use asset and a corresponding operating lease liability on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets upon the accounting commencement date in August 2022. The lease liability was measured at the accounting commencement date utilizing a 12% discount rate. The right-of-use asset had a balance of $193,460 at March 31, 2024. The operating lease obligations totaled $209,489 at March 31, 2024, of which $151,159 is included under current liabilities and $58,330 is included under non-current liabilities. The Company recorded lease expense of $35,296 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 included in selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company recorded lease expense relating to the Office Lease of $35,296 and other short-term

payments of $5,653 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and lease expense relating to the Office Lease of $35,296 and short-term payments of $5,788 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The Office Lease contains escalating payments during the lease period. Upon execution of the Office Lease, the Company prepaid one month of rent and a security deposit, one of which will be held in escrow and credited at the termination of the lease and the other of which will be applied to the first month’s rent.

As of March 31, 2024, a security deposit of approximately $25,000 was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet related to the Office Lease.

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

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”) (including but not limited to this Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are intended to qualify for the “safe harbor” created by those sections. In addition, we may make forward-looking statements in other documents filed with or furnished to the SEC, and our management and other representatives may make forward-looking statements orally or in writing to analysts, investors, representatives of the media and others. You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes to those statements included elsewhere in this Report. This discussion and analysis and other parts of this Report contain forward-looking statements based upon current beliefs, plans and expectations related to future events and our future financial performance that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, such as statements regarding our intentions, plans, objectives, expectations, forecasts and projections. Our actual results and the timing of selected events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors.

All statements included or incorporated by reference in this Report, other than statements or characterizations of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and include, but are not limited to, statements using terminology such as “can”, “may”, “could”, “should”, “assume”, “forecasts”, “believe”, “designed to”, “will”, “expect”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “potential”, “position”, “predicts”, “strategy”, “guidance”, “intend”, “seek”, “budget”, “project” or “continue”, or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology regarding beliefs, plans, expectations or intentions regarding the future. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they:

•

discuss our future expectations;

•

contain projections of our clinical trials, future results of operations or of our financial condition; and

•

state other “forward-looking” information.

We believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates, approximations and projections about our business and our industry and management’s beliefs, all of which are subject to change. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Accordingly, our actual results and the timing of certain events may differ materially and adversely from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors and risks, including, but not limited to, those set forth in this Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Report, those set forth from time to time in our other filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and the following factors and risks:

•

We are a clinical-stage drug development company with limited resources, a limited operating history and have no products approved for commercial sale, which may make it difficult to evaluate our current business and predict our future success and viability;

•

If we are unable to successfully raise additional capital, our future clinical trials and product development could be limited and our long-term viability may be threatened;

•

There is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern and our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern in its report on our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. We will need to raise additional funding, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed may force us to delay, limit or terminate our clinical trials or other operations;

•

While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, lifted the clinical holds with respect to the Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) programs relating to Parkinson’s disease and MSA, we may be subject to further clinical holds by the FDA in the future;

•

Drug development is a highly uncertain undertaking and involves a substantial degree of risk. We have never generated any revenue from product sales, we may never generate any revenue from product sales, and we may fail to generate further revenue from grants or contracts or to be profitable;

•

The wars between Russia and Ukraine and Israel and Hamas could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition;

•

Our results of operations have been adversely affected and, in the future, could be materially adversely impacted by the COVID-19 virus;

•

Adverse developments affecting financial institutions, companies in the financial services industry or the financial services industry generally, including those we do business with, could adversely affect our operations and liquidity;

•

We have incurred significant net losses since our inception and anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future;

•

Due to the significant resources required for the development of our programs, and depending on our ability to access capital, we must prioritize development of certain product candidates;

•

Our business is highly dependent on the success of our initial product candidates targeting neurodegenerative diseases;

•

We currently contract with various research institutions to perform the research and development activities needed to develop our products, and if we ever choose to or need to find alternative research institutions, we may not be able to do so at all or, if we are able to do so, it may be costly and may cause significant delays in the development and commercialization of our products;

•

Positive results from early preclinical or clinical studies of our product candidates are not necessarily predictive of the results of later preclinical studies and any current and future clinical trials of our product candidates;

•

We have no history of completing clinical trials for novel drug substances or commercializing pharmaceutical products, which may make it difficult to evaluate the prospects for our future viability;

•

Our clinical trials may reveal significant adverse events, toxicities or other side effects not seen in our preclinical studies and may result in a safety profile that could inhibit regulatory approval or market acceptance of any of our product candidates;

•

We have concentrated much of our research and development efforts on the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, a field that has seen limited success in drug development;

•

We may encounter substantial delays in our current and planned clinical trials, or may not be able to conduct or complete our clinical trials on the timelines we expect, if at all;

•

Our current and planned clinical trials may fail to demonstrate substantial evidence of the safety and efficacy of our product candidates, which would prevent, delay or limit the scope of regulatory approval and commercialization;

•

Clinical development is a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome, and failure can occur at any stage of clinical development;

•

The manufacture of our product candidates is complex and difficulties may be encountered in production;

•

If, in the future, we are unable to establish sales and marketing capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to sell and market any product candidates we may develop, we may not be successful in commercializing those product candidates if and when they are approved;

•

Even if any product candidates we develop receive marketing approval, they may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients, healthcare payors, and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success.

•

Even if we are able to commercialize any product candidates, such products may become subject to unfavorable pricing regulations, third-party reimbursement practices, or healthcare reform initiatives, which would harm our business.

•

The regulatory approval processes of the FDA, European Medicines Agency, and comparable foreign regulatory authorities are lengthy, time consuming, and inherently unpredictable. Regulatory authorities have substantial discretion in the approval process and may refuse to accept an application, may disagree with our regulatory strategy or proposed pathway for approval or may decide that our data are insufficient for approval and require additional preclinical, clinical or other studies;

•

We expect to depend in whole or in part on collaborations with third parties for the research, development and commercialization of any product candidates we may develop;

•

We contract with third parties for the manufacture of materials for our research programs, preclinical studies and current clinical trials and expect to continue to do so for any future clinical trials and for commercialization of any product candidates that we may develop;

•

We depend on a small number of third-party suppliers for key raw materials used in the manufacturing processes for our product candidates, and the loss of these third-party suppliers or their inability to supply us with adequate raw materials could harm our business; and

•

If we are unable to obtain and maintain patent protection for any product candidates we develop, our competitors could develop and commercialize products or technology similar or identical to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize any product candidates we may develop, and our technology may be adversely affected.

Any or all of our forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong. They may be affected by inaccurate assumptions that we might make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements.

All forward-looking statements included in this Report are made as of the date hereof, in each case based on information available to us as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligations to update any forward-looking statement or risk factor, unless we are required to do so by law. If we do update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make updates with respect to other forward-looking statements or that we will make any further updates to those forward-looking statements at any future time.

Forward-looking statements may include our plans and objectives for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to our product candidates and our future economic performance, projections, business strategy and timing and likelihood of success. Assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements included in this Report involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, future business decisions, and the time and money required to successfully complete development and commercialization of our product candidates, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control.

Any of the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this Report could prove inaccurate and, therefore, we cannot assure you that any of the results or events contemplated in any of such forward-looking statements will be realized. Based on the significant uncertainties inherent in these forward-looking statements, the inclusion of any such statement should not be regarded as a representation or as a guarantee by us that our objectives or plans will be achieved, and we caution you against relying on any of the forward-looking statements contained herein.

Overview

We are a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing protein kinase inhibitor therapeutics to modify the course of Parkinson’s disease (“PD”), Parkinson’s-related disorders and other diseases of the Abelson Tyrosine Kinases. The Company’s multi-therapeutic pipeline has a primary focus on neurodegeneration and its lead program utilizing Risvodetinib (also known as IkT-148009), a selective inhibitor of the non-receptor Abelson Tyrosine Kinases, targets the treatment of Parkinson’s disease inside and outside the brain as well as other diseases that arise from Abelson Tyrosine Kinases. In 2021, we commenced clinical development of Risvodetinib (IkT-148009), which we believe can modify the course of Parkinson’s disease including its manifestation in the gastrointestinal, or GI, tract. In January, 2023, the Company initiated its Phase 2 program, termed ‘the 201 trial’ (www.the201trial.com), for Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) as a treatment for Parkinson’s disease and began the process of opening up to 34 sites in the U.S. As of May 10, 2024, 32 sites are open and actively evaluating prospective trial participants. As of May 10, 2024, 99 participants have been enrolled, 15 prospective participants are in medical screening and 22 potential participants are being evaluated for suitability to initiate medical screening. 44 participants have completed the 12-week dosing period. As of May 10, 2024, 20 participants gave rise to 25 mild and 3 moderate possibly treatment-related adverse events have been reported across all enrolled patients taking Risvodetinib (IkT-148009). Depending on the timing of the last enrolled patient, results from this trial may be reported in the second half of 2024. Monthly site enrollments have increased month-over-month since our patient outreach program was initiated. As such, we believe a more rapid path to enrollment is emerging through the public outreach/awareness campaign led by the ‘the201trial.com’ website. The emerging path to complete enrollment has prompted us to take further advantage of this multi-dose study by planning to extend the 201 trial by up to 12 months, subject to additional resources. In addition, emerging biomarker data from the 201 trial evaluating pathological alpha-synuclein in multiple tissues and fluids supported our recent grant submissions to the National Institute of Neurological Disease and Stroke. One of these grants, if approved, will introduce our novel monoclonal antibody to track phospho-Tyr39-alpha-synuclein in the clinical trial setting, which we believe in turn will enhance the meaning of biomarker measurements. We believe the utilization of this antibody in tissue biopsy and fluid analysis will enable us to confirm target engagement and evaluate the effect of Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) on the underlying pathology responsible for disease.

The twelve-week 201 trial is evaluating three doses in participants who have untreated Parkinson’s disease on a staggered schedule and is placebo controlled with 1:1:1:1 randomization. The primary endpoints of this trial are safety and tolerability and a hierarchy of 15 secondary endpoints will evaluate treatment benefit in the brain and GI tract. The recent analysis of 11 patients who participated in the 201 trial prior to the temporary clinical hold issued by the FDA in November, 2022, which was lifted in January, 2023, suggested that Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) may have some effect on disease. These participants were withdrawn from the trial following the FDA’s temporary clinical hold. As detailed at the Movement Disorder Society Congress held August 2023, the primary secondary endpoint is a functional assessment comprised of the sum of Parts 2 and 3 of the Movement Disorder Society Universal Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS Parts II+III). This sum showed an average -8.7 point improvement in the three participants on the 200 mg dose relative to baseline, while three placebo participants increased by +1.7 points; this represents an average spread of -10.4 points. A lower (or negative) change relative to placebo of greater than -3 to -6 points might be considered a measure of improvement. Given the small sample size on this dose, we believe it is premature to conclude a clinical benefit, but this observation reinforces our desire to extend the trial for an additional 12 months to potentially obtain a clear picture of clinical benefit over a total measurement of 15 months. Blinded functional assessment and biomarker data supports the trial extension and may reinforce the observations made from the 11 unblinded patients.

In March 2023, we opened our Investigational New Drug Application, or IND, for Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) as a treatment for the Parkinson’s-related orphan disease Multiple System Atrophy, or MSA. Our evaluation of Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) in MSA was benefited by a grant received from the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke, an Institute of the National Institutes of Health, for $0.39 million to fund animal model studies of Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) as a therapy for MSA. Two different animal studies were undertaken to evaluate whether Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) could have an impact on disease in the animal. One model evaluated the ability of Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) to modify disease early in its progression, while the second model is evaluating whether Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) can correct functional loss much later in the disease course. The early progression model study has now been shown to preserve nearly normal functional activity following 20 weeks of once daily dosing relative to untreated controls. Preservation of function in this model occurred with substantial reduction of the underlying alpha-synuclein protein pathology. The second model evaluating Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) late in the disease course is ongoing. In addition, Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) was recently given Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA for the treatment of MSA. We plan to initiate a Phase 2 study in MSA patients in up to nineteen sites in the EU, and up to six sites in the U.S. involving at least 120 patients, and we are presently seeking non-dilutive resources to initiate and execute this trial in its entirety. The proposed Phase 2 study will have a primary efficacy endpoint following once daily dosing at one of several dose levels for 12-months. We plan to submit complementary regulatory documents for Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) to European Union authorities in 2024.

We are also developing platform technologies to improve delivery of protein kinase inhibitors in patients. One example of our potential ability to improve drug delivery is IkT-001Pro, a prodrug of the anticancer agent imatinib mesylate, which is intended to treat Stable Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, or SP-CML. A three-part dose finding/dose equivalence study in 66 healthy volunteers (known as ‘the 501 trial’) has completed with IkT-001Pro. The study was designed to evaluate the 96-hour pharmacokinetics of imatinib delivered as IkT-001Pro and determine the dose of IkT-001Pro that can deliver the equivalent of either 400 mg or 600 mg imatinib mesylate. As of the date of this Report, bioequivalence to 400 mg imatinib mesylate has been established to our satisfaction for a 600 mg dose of IkT-001Pro. We further evaluated 600 mg imatinib mesylate and believe that a 900 mg dose of IkT-001Pro is the preferred dose of IkT-001Pro to deliver a dose of imatinib equivalent to 600 mg imatinib mesylate. We studied 800 mg IkT-001Pro and found it to be nearly equivalent to 600 mg imatinib mesylate. We may study higher doses of IkT-001Pro to cover the full range of doses approved for imatinib mesylate to treat up to 11 adult and pediatric blood cancers.

On January 19, 2024, members of the Company along with its medical oncology consultants met with the FDA Review Team (the “Review Team”) from the Division of Hematologic Malignancies in a Pre-New Drug Application, or NDA, meeting to discuss our bioequivalence studies of IkT-001Pro and its path to approval. All questions were addressed and summarized in official meeting minutes issued by the FDA on February 12, 2024. During the meeting we inquired whether additional clinical studies may be needed to seek approval and discussed manufacturing and quality control requirements for approval. The Review Team acknowledged that the 505(b)(2) pathway appears to be the appropriate pathway for approval of IkT-001Pro and indicated that, pending formal review of our clinical data, clinical studies completed to date indicate that 600 mg and 800 mg IkT-001Pro provides similar exposures to 400 mg and 600 mg imatinib mesylate, respectively, subject to review of the NDA upon filing. In addition, given that imatinib mesylate is approved for use between 300 mg and 800 mg once daily for a variety of blood and gastrointestinal cancers, the Review Team stated that if we intend to seek approval across all currently approved indications, we should evaluate additional dose(s) as needed to measure the safety, tolerability and bioequivalent dose of IkT-001Pro that would deliver up to 800 mg, the highest approved dose of imatinib mesylate. The Review Team also discussed the possible difference between IkT-001Pro and imatinib mesylate absorption in the gut and recommended that we evaluate whether IkT-001Pro and imatinib mesylate behave differently with respect to certain gut transporters that regulate absorption. We are in alignment with the FDA and are initiating the necessary pre-clinical test to evaluate this further to ensure that delivery of imatinib by IkT-001Pro mimics imatinib mesylate in all respects. Finally, a number of recommendations were discussed to prevent the potential mix-up between 001Pro and imatinib mesylate either at the pharmacy or by patients for two drugs delivering the same active ingredient. We discussed alternate dosage forms for IkT-001Pro relative to imatinib

mesylate as the primary mitigation strategy and will provide a justification of the dosage forms chosen and why they are unlikely to cause medication errors. To ensure that we meet the manufacturing requirements for approval, we will request milestone-based meetings with the Review Team as we complete the required manufacturing and quality control processes.

We are also evaluating the application of IkT-001Pro to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). PAH is a rare disease of the pulmonary microvasculature with about 30,000 cases in the U.S., mostly in women between the ages of 30 and 60. The global PAH market size was valued at $7.66 billion in 2023 and is estimated to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5.4% between 2024 to 2030. Most treatments for PAH attempt to address symptoms of this progressive disorder, but in the early 2010s, imatinib delivered by imatinib mesylate was shown to be a disease-modifying therapy for PAH. Co-administration of medications with harmful drug-drug interactions precluded the approval of imatinib as add-on therapy in PAH. Today, on the other hand, changes to standard-of-care for these patients has reduced the safety risk from imatinib treatment in PAH in our view. As such, on April 5, 2024, members of the Company met with the FDA Division of Cardiology and Nephrology in a pre-IND meeting to discuss the Company’s plan to utilize IkT-001Pro at 300 mg or 450 mg in a Phase 2/3 efficacy, safety and tolerability trial in World Health Organization Functional Class I patients. At the meeting, the FDA confirmed that IkT-001Pro would be viewed as a New Molecular Entity (NME) for PAH and that the appropriate path for approval is the 505(b)(2) statute. This opens up the possibility of IkT-001Pro being granted NME and patent exclusivity on approval. The period of exclusivity would be evaluated once the NDA is filed. The FDA requested that we conduct a comparative cell-culture based study of the hERG ion channel, a standard cardiovascular safety test performed for any NME for which a new IND is to be opened. The Company plans to complete this study later in the quarter or in early third quarter and file the IND. The Company is in active discussion with potential strategic partners on this program. The Company has also applied for Orphan Drug Designation for delivery of imatinib by IkT-001Pro for PAH.

We have also improved drug delivery of Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) through development of a tablet formulation, which we measured to nearly double the concentration of Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) delivered relative to the same dose previously administered as a gelatin capsule. This provides the opportunity to lower the effective oral dose, which could lead to further safety and tolerability improvements for Risvodetinib (IkT-148009). The Company plans to introduce the tablet formulation into the 12-month extension study, once implemented, as well as in all future clinical trials.

Finally, we are evaluating a number of research phase molecules (IkT-148x and BIP 4-7) for a variety of neurodegenerative disease indications across our pre-clinical development pipeline.

In our opinion, the multi-decade failures in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as PD result from a lack of understanding of the biochemistry of the disease processes involved. Neurodegeneration is marked by a progressive degeneration and loss of function of neurons which send and receive signals to and from the brain. Historically, the cause of a neurodegenerative disease was thought to be a “plaque” made up of a misfolded and/or aggregated protein(s). Therapeutic approaches, therefore, sought to remove “plaque” from the brain. A “plaque”-focused treatment strategy has failed to alter the course of Parkinson’s disease in two Phase 2 trials that reported results in 2020 and 2021. We believe we are different. We identified the proteins that become dysfunctional in a disease pathway and sought to understand how a dysfunctional protein causes disease and published those results in several high-profile peer reviewed publications. We believe our approach to PD and other neurological diseases has identified the underlying cause of disease and led to an understanding of how individual proteins are linked together to define the disease process. We believe our approach to neurodegenerative disease is validated by our 2022 and 2023 publications and oral presentations at the major academic and industry conferences in Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.

To increase the probability of success, we are making parallel investments in several product candidates and back-up candidates, and plan to advance only those candidates to the later stages of clinical development that show strong preclinical and early clinical data. By developing a portfolio of product candidates across therapeutic indications, we can continuously apply learnings and tools across programs and leverage economies of scale in our research and development organization. Our target indications include diseases with large patient populations, such as PD, as well as orphan indications, such as, Multiple System Atrophy and Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia.

We currently have commercialization rights to all of our development programs and patent protection in the United States until 2033 for IkT-001Pro and 2036 for Risvodetinib (IkT-148009). Additional patent filings could extend this period of exclusivity.

As of April 10, 2024, our patent portfolio included: (i) nine issued patents and four pending patent applications in the United States and (ii) eleven issued foreign patents and four pending foreign patent applications. The patents in this portfolio, and patents that may issue from the applications in this portfolio, will expire between 2033 and 2037, not taking into account any potential patent-term adjustments or extensions that may be available in the future.

Two families contain patents and applications covering (a) certain compositions of matter comprising IkT-001Pro; and (b) methods of treating certain diseases using IkT-001Pro. These families include two issued U.S. patents and one pending U.S. patent

application. The patents will expire in 2033, not taking into account any potential patent-term adjustments or extensions that may be available in the future. The pending application is a U.S. provisional patent application that was filed in 2024. Future patent applications that are entitled to claim priority to this provisional application may issue as patents that would expire in 2044 or 2045, not taking into account any potential patent-term adjustments or extensions that may be available in the future.

Three families contain patents and applications covering (a) certain compositions of matter comprising IkT-148009 or IkT-01427; and (b) methods of treating certain diseases using IkT-148009 or IkT-01427. These families include seven issued U.S. patents and three pending U.S. patent applications. The patents within these families, and patents that may issue from the applications in these families, will expire between 2036 and 2037, not taking into account any potential patent-term adjustments or extensions that may be available in the future. One of the pending applications is a U.S. provisional patent application that was filed in 2024. Future patent applications that are entitled to claim priority to this provisional application may issue as patents that would expire in 2044 or 2045, not taking into account any potential patent-term adjustments or extensions that may be available in the future.

Components of Operating Results

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Research and development activities account for a significant portion of our operating expenses. We record research and development expenses as incurred. Research and development expenses incurred by us for the discovery and development of our product candidates and prodrug technologies include:

•

external research and development expenses, including expenses incurred under arrangements with third parties, such as CROs, preclinical testing organizations, clinical testing organizations, CMOs, academic and non-profit institutions and consultants;

•

fees related to our license and collaboration agreements;

•

personnel related expenses, including salaries, benefits and non-cash stock-based compensation expense; and

•

other expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for laboratory, facilities and other costs.

A portion of our research and development expenses are direct external expenses, which we track on a program-specific basis from inception of the program.

Program expenses include expenses associated with our most advanced product candidates and the discovery and development of compounds that are potential future candidates. We also track external expenses associated with our third-party research and development efforts. All external costs are tracked by therapeutic indication. We do not track personnel or other operating expenses incurred for our research and development programs on a program-specific basis. These expenses primarily relate to salaries and benefits and stock-based compensation and office consumables.

At this time, we can only estimate the nature, timing and costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the development of, and obtain regulatory approval for, any of our product candidates. We are also unable to predict when, if ever, material net cash inflows will commence from sales or licensing of our product candidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with drug development, including the uncertainty of:

•

our ability to add and retain key research and development personnel and other key employees;

•

our ability to successfully file IND and NDA applications with the FDA;

•

our ability to conduct and commence trials;

•

our ability to establish an appropriate safety profile with IND-enabling toxicology studies;

•

our ability to successfully develop, obtain regulatory approval for, and then successfully commercialize, our product candidates;

•

our successful enrollment in and completion of our current and future clinical trials;

•

the costs associated with the development of any additional product candidates we identify in-house or acquire through collaborations;

•

our ability to discover, develop and utilize biomarkers to demonstrate target engagement, pathway engagement and the impact on disease progression of our molecules;

•

our ability to establish agreements with third party manufacturers for clinical supply for any future clinical trials and commercial manufacturing, if our product candidates are approved;

•

the terms and timing of any collaboration, license or other arrangement, including the terms and timing of any milestone payments thereunder;

•

our ability to obtain and maintain patent, trade secret and other intellectual property protection and regulatory exclusivity for our product candidates if and when approved;

•

our receipt of marketing approvals from applicable regulatory authorities;

•

the impact of the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic or other future pandemics;

•

our ability to commercialize products, if and when approved, whether alone or in collaboration with others; and

•

the continued acceptable safety profiles of the product candidates following approval.

A change in any of these variables with respect to the development of any of our product candidates would significantly change the costs, timing and viability associated with the development of that product candidate. We expect our research and development expenses to increase for the next several years as we continue to implement our business strategy, advance our current programs, expand our research and development efforts, seek regulatory approvals for any product candidates that successfully complete clinical trials, access and develop additional product candidates and incur expenses associated with hiring additional personnel to support our research and development efforts. In addition, product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally incur higher development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later-stage clinical trials.

Our direct research and development expenses consist principally of external costs, such as fees paid to investigators, consultants, central laboratories and CROs in connection with our clinical studies, and costs related to acquiring and manufacturing clinical study materials. We allocate salary and benefit costs directly related to specific programs. We do not allocate personnel-related discretionary bonus or stock-based compensation costs, laboratory and related expenses, depreciation or other indirect costs that are deployed across multiple projects under development and, as such, the costs are separately classified as other research and development expenses in the table below:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023		Change
PD	$	2,343,896	$	1,757,447	$	586,449
MSA		43,352		75,300		(31,948	)
CML		80,220		818,046		(737,826	)
Other research and development expenses		283,811		203,326		80,485
Total research and development expenses	$	2,751,279	$	2,854,119		(102,840	)

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel related expenses, such as salaries, benefits, travel and non-cash stock-based compensation expense, expenses for outside professional services and allocated expenses. Outside professional services consist of legal, accounting and audit services, investor relations services and other consulting fees. Allocated expenses consist of rent expenses related to our offices in Lexington, Massachusetts and Atlanta, Georgia not otherwise included in research and development expenses.

We are incurring additional expenses as compared to when we were a private company, including expenses related to compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and those of Nasdaq, additional insurance expenses, investor relations activities and other administrative and professional services. We also are increasing our administrative headcount as a public company and as we advance our product candidates through clinical development, which will also likely require us to increase our selling, general and administrative expenses.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

The following table sets forth the significant components of our results of operations:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2024			2023			($)			(%)
	(unaudited)
Grant revenue	$	—		$	64,521		$	(64,521	)		(100.0	)

Interest income		132,725			237,171			(104,446	)		(44.0	)
Net loss	$	(4,649,635	)	$	(4,477,778	)	$	(171,857	)		3.8

Grant Revenue

Grant revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, decreased by $64,521 or 100.0% to $0 from $64,521 in the prior comparable period. During 2024, the Company continued to advance its Phase I and II clinical trials which were not submitted for grant revenue.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses decreased by $102,840 or 3.6% to $2,751,279 from $2,854,119 in the prior comparable period. The $0.1 million decrease in research and development expenses was due to a decrease of $0.7 million in IkT-001 Pro expenses offset by a $0.6 million increase in Risvodetinib (IkT-148009) expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $105,730 or 5.5% to $2,031,081 from $1,925,351 in the prior comparable period. The $0.1 million increase was primarily driven by a $0.18 million increase in legal and consulting fees, and a $0.08 million net decrease in all other normal selling, general and administrative expenses.

Interest Income

Interest income decreased by $0.11 million or 44.0% to $0.13 million from $0.24 million in the prior comparable period. The decrease was driven by interest earned on U.S. Treasuries and money market instruments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

From our inception up until our December 2020 Initial Public Offering, we funded our operations primarily through private, state and federal contracts and grants. From our inception through March 31, 2024, we generated aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $23.6 million from private, state and federal contracts and grants. In December 2020, June 2021, and January 2023, the Company raised approximately $14.6 million, $41.1 million, and $8.5 million, respectively, in net proceeds from its 2020 IPO, its June 2021 Offering, and its January 2023 Offering, respectively.

On February 1, 2024, the Company entered into an At The Market Offering (the “ATM”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC as sales agent (the “Agent”), pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of its Common Stock, in an aggregate offering price of up to $5,659,255 through the Agent. Under the terms of the ATM, the Agent may sell the shares of Common Stock at market prices by any method that is deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. As of March 31, 2024, 290,564 ATM Shares have been sold under the Agreement with net proceeds of $397,607 to the Company.

At March 31, 2024, the Company had working capital of $6,574,717, an accumulated deficit of $71,550,360, cash and cash equivalents of $2,353,346, marketable securities of $7,396,009 and accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $3,801,344.

Future Funding Requirements

To date, we have not generated any revenue from the sale of commercial products. We do not expect to generate any significant revenue from product sales unless and until we obtain regulatory approval of and successfully commercialize any of our product candidates and we do not know when, or if, this will occur. We expect to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future, and we expect the losses to increase as we continue the development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, our product candidates, and begin to commercialize any future approved products. We are subject to all of the risks typically related to the development of new product candidates, and we may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other unknown factors that may adversely affect our business. Moreover, following the completion of the December 2020 initial public offering, we incurred additional costs associated with operating as a public company. We anticipate that we will need substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations.

Until we can generate a sufficient amount of revenue from the commercialization of our product candidates, if ever, we expect to finance our incremental cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, working capital lines of credit, grant funding and potential licenses and collaboration agreements. Additional working capital may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we may have to significantly delay, reduce or discontinue the development or commercialization of one or more of our product candidates. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of additional debt or equity securities, it could result in dilution to our existing stockholders, increased fixed payment obligations and the existence of securities with rights that may be senior to those of our common stock. If we incur indebtedness, we could become subject to covenants that would restrict our operations and potentially impair our competitiveness, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, limitations on our ability to acquire, sell or license intellectual property rights and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. Additionally, any future collaborations we enter into with third parties may provide capital in the near term but limit our potential cash flow and revenue in the future. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Since our inception, we have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. We have an accumulated deficit of $71,550,360 at March 31, 2024. We expect to incur substantial additional losses in the future as we conduct and expand our research and development activities.

We may seek to fund our operations through public equity or private equity or debt financings, as well as other sources. However, we may be unable to raise additional working capital, or if we are able to raise additional working capital, we may be unable to do so on commercially favorable terms. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such other arrangements if and when needed would have a negative impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition and our ability to continue to develop our product candidates.

The Company had working capital of $6,574,717 at March 31, 2024. The Company intends to raise additional working capital in order to carry on its operations and current clinical trials. However, as certain elements of the Company’s operating plan are outside of the Company’s control, including the receipt of anticipated future grants and funding from a future capital raise, they cannot be considered probable. If the Company does not receive additional working capital from future anticipated grants and future anticipated capital raises, its operating plan will be limited in scope to operating at its pre-IPO levels which were limited to basic research and development but excluded current and planned future clinical trials.

We have identified conditions and events that raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern in its report on our audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date the financial statements included in this Report are issued. Our management’s plans to alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt may include suspending or delaying certain research projects and capital expenditures and eliminating certain future operating expenses in order to fund operations at reduced levels for us to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months from the date the financial statements are issued.

We believe that our existing cash resources as of March 31, 2024 will enable us to fund our operating requirements through November 2024. However, we have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could deplete our working capital sooner than planned.

The timing and amount of our operating expenditures will depend largely on:

•

the timing and progress of preclinical and clinical development activities;

•

the number and scope of preclinical and clinical programs we decide to pursue;

•

possible delays or interruptions to preclinical studies, clinical trials, our receipt of services from our third-party service providers on whom we rely;

•

the progress of the development efforts of third parties with whom we have entered into license and collaboration agreements;

•

our ability to maintain our current research and development programs and to establish new research and development, license or collaboration arrangements;

•

our ability and success in securing manufacturing relationships with third parties or, in the future, in establishing and operating a manufacturing facility;

•

the costs involved in prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property claims;

•

the cost and timing of regulatory approvals;

•

our efforts to enhance operational, financial and information management systems and hire additional personnel, including personnel to support development of our product candidates; and

•

the costs and ongoing investments to in-license and/or acquire additional technologies.

A change in the outcome of any of these or other variables with respect to the development of any of our product candidates could significantly change the costs and timing associated with the development of that product candidate. Furthermore, our operating plans may change in the future, and we may need additional funds to meet operational needs and capital requirements associated with such operating plans.

The Lexington lease contains escalating payments during the lease period. Upon execution of this lease agreement, the Company prepaid one month of rent, applied to the first month's rent, and a security deposit, which will be held in escrow and credited at the termination of the lease. Our total lease obligation is $227,803, consisting of minimum annual rental obligations of $112,837 for fiscal year 2024 and $114,966 for fiscal year 2025.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or US GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported 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. While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report, we believe that the following accounting policies are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.

Research and Development Expenses

We record research and development expenses to operations as incurred. Research and development expenses represent costs incurred by us for the discovery and development of our product candidates and the development of our RAMP™ drug discovery program and prodrug technologies and include: employee-related expenses, such as salaries, benefits, travel and non-cash stock-based compensation expense; external research and development expenses incurred under arrangements with third parties, such as CROs, preclinical testing organizations, clinical testing organizations, CMOs, academic and non-profit institutions and consultants; costs to acquire technologies to be used in research and development that have not reached technological feasibility and have no alternative future use; license fees; and other expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for laboratory, facilities and other costs.

As part of the process of preparing financial statements, we are required to estimate and accrue expenses. A portion of our research and development expenses is comprised of external costs, which we track on a program-specific basis. We record the estimated expenses of research and development activities conducted by third-party service providers as they are incurred and provided within research and development expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. These services include the conduct of clinical studies, preclinical studies and consulting services. These costs are a significant component of our research and development expenses.

Costs for research and development activities are recognized based on costs incurred. We make significant judgments and estimates in determining the accrued balance in each reporting period. As actual costs become known, we adjust our accrued estimates. Although we do not expect our estimates to be materially different from amounts actually incurred, our understanding of the status and timing of services performed may vary from our estimates and could result in us reporting amounts that are too high or too

low in any particular period. Our accrued expenses are dependent, in part, upon the receipt of timely and accurate reporting from external clinical research organizations and other third-party service providers. Due to the nature of estimates, we cannot assure you that we will not make changes to our estimates in the future as we become aware of additional information about the status or conduct of our clinical trials and other research activities.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide disclosure regarding quantitative and qualitative market risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act 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 the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The Company recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as the Company believes it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
