COEPTIS THERAPEUTICS HOLDINGS,
INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited)
NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF
BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Nature of Business
General. Coeptis Therapeutics
Holdings, Inc. (“Coeptis”, the “Company” or “we” or “our”) was originally incorporated
in the British Virgin Islands on November 27, 2018, under the name Bull Horn Holdings Corp. On October 27, 2022, Bull Horn Holdings Corp.
domesticated from the British Virgin Islands to the State of Delaware. On October 28, 2022, in connection with the closing of the Merger,
we changed our corporate name from Bull Horn Holdings Corp. to Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings, Inc.
The Merger Transaction. On October
28, 2022, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bull Horn Holdings Corp., merged with and into Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc., with Coeptis Therapeutics,
Inc. as the surviving corporation of the Merger. As a result of the Merger, we acquired the business of Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc., which
now continues to operate as a wholly owned subsidiary.
About the Company’s Subsidiaries.
We are now a holding company that currently operates through our direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc.,
Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, LLC. The Company formed two new subsidiaries, SNAP Biosciences, Inc. and GEAR
Therapeutics, Inc., in June 2024 in connection with the Series A Preferred Stock offering. See Note 5, Capital Structure, for more information
on the Series A Preferred Stock offering.
Our current business model is designed
around furthering the development of our current product portfolio. We are continually exploring partnership opportunities with companies
that have novel therapies in various stages of development or companies with technologies that improve the way that drugs are delivered
to patients. We seek the best strategic relationships, which relationships could include in-license agreements, out-license agreements,
co-development arrangements and other strategic partnerships in new and exciting therapeutic areas such as auto-immune disease and oncology.
Basis of Presentation
– The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are
necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The interim
results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the full fiscal year. Certain information and
footnote disclosure normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed
or omitted pursuant to instructions, rules, and regulations prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”). The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended
December 31, 2023 that was filed with the SEC on August 15, 2024.
Principles of
Consolidation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Coeptis
Therapeutics, Inc., SNAP Biosciences, Inc., GEAR Therapeutics, Inc., Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, LLC. All material intercompany accounts, balances and transactions have been eliminated.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates – The
preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed
consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Employee and Non-Employee Share-Based
Compensation – The Company applies Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718-10, Share-Based Payment,
which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expenses for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors
including employee stock option equity awards issued to employees and non-employees based on estimated fair values.
ASC 718-10 requires
companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The fair
value of the award is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods in the Company’s
unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognizes share-based award forfeitures as they occur.
The Company estimates the
fair value of granted option equity awards using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of
assumptions, of which the most significant are share price, expected volatility and the expected option term (the time from the
grant date until the options are exercised or expire). Expected volatility is estimated based on volatility of the Company. The
Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on
the yield from governmental zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The expected option term is calculated for options granted to
employees and directors using the “simplified” method. Changes in the determination of each of the inputs can affect the
fair value of the options granted and the results of operations of the Company.
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements
– During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, there were new accounting pronouncements issued
by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted
by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact
on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications – Certain reclassifications were made to the prior condensed consolidated
financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. There was no change to the previously reported net loss
Going
Concern – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity
with GAAP in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern, which is dependent upon
the Company’s ability to obtain sufficient financials or establish itself as a profitable business. As of September 30, 2024,
the Company had an accumulated deficit of $95,221,907,
and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had a net loss of $7,865,647.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans
with respect to operations include raising additional capital through sales of equity or debt securities as may be necessary to
pursue its business plans and sustain operations until such time as the Company can achieve profitability. Management believes that
additional financing as necessary will result in improved operations and cash flow. However, there can be no assurance that
management will be successful in obtaining additional funding or in attaining profitable operations.
NOTE 3 – CO-DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS
Prior to 2022, the Company entered
into an agreement with Purple Biotech (“Purple”) to market, distribute, and sell the Consensi product (the “Product”)
on an exclusive basis within the United States and Puerto Rico. Upon execution of the Agreement the Company paid $1,000,000 to Purple.
Two additional milestone payments of $1,500,000 and $1,000,000 were due and paid upon completion of the milestones including the first
commercial sale of the Product which occurred and the payments were made prior to 2022.
In September of 2021, the Company
executed a license termination agreement with Purple to cease all efforts for sales and promotion of the Product in the United States
and Puerto Rico. The termination included (i) issuance of $1,500,000 of convertible debt due in February 2023 to satisfy amounts owed
for the license, (ii) the issuance of warrants (See Note 5, Capital Structure) and (iii) transfer of inventory ownership back to Purple.
In conjunction with this termination, the Company also terminated its marketing agreement with a third party for the Product’s
sales and promotion. On July 14, 2023, the Company and Purple executed an amendment to revise the note’s payment schedule, extending
the maturity date to March 31, 2024. On June 19, 2024, the Company and Purple executed another amendment to extend the maturity date
to August 31, 2024. The outstanding principal balance due under the convertible note at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was
$218,750 and $625,000, respectively. The note is in default as of September 30, 2024.
During the year ended December 31,
2021, the Company and Vy-Gen-Bio, Inc. (“Vy-Gen”) entered into agreements to jointly develop and commercialize two Vy-Gen
product candidates, CD38-GEAR-NK and CD38-Diagnostic (the “CD38 Assets”). The Company paid $1,750,000 and issued promissory
notes totaling $3,250,000 to Vy-Gen in accordance with the agreements. The collaboration arrangement provides the right for the Company
to participate, under the direction of a joint steering committee, in the development and commercialization of the CD38 Assets and a 50/50
profit share, with the profit share subject to contingent automatic downward adjustment up to 25% upon an event of default in connection
with the promissory notes. The Company capitalized $5,000,000 to be amortized over a five-year period in which the CD38 Assets are expected
to contribute to future cash flows. In March of 2022, a $250,000 payment was made toward the promissory notes. In November of 2022, a
$1,500,000 payment was made toward the promissory notes, which paid them in full, and the accrued interest was forgiven.
The Company made certain judgements
as the basis in determining the accounting treatment of these options. The CD38 Assets represent a platform technology and a diagnostic
tool which have multiple applications and uses. Both projects are intended to be used in more than one therapy or diagnostic option. For
example, GEAR-NK is a technology which allows for the gene editing of human natural killer cells, so that these cells can no longer bind
and be destroyed by targeted monoclonal antibody treatments. The GEAR-NK technology can be modified to work concomitantly with many different
monoclonal antibody treatments in which there are currently over 100 approved by the FDA. Anti- CD38 is only the first class of monoclonal
antibody treatments being developed under the GEAR-NK platform. Therefore, the pursuit of FDA approval for the use of CD38 assets for
at least one indication or medical device approval is at least reasonably expected. Further, as the diagnostic asset may be used as an
in vitro technology, it could be classified as a medical device, and therefore toxicity studies would not be a contingency to be resolved
before reasonably establishing future value assumptions. In addition, there is perceived value in the CD38 assets, based on publicly disclosed
current business deals in cell therapies, the developing market for these innovative technologies, and current interest from third parties
in these technologies. The Company may sell or license its right to another party, with the written consent of Vy-Gen, which cannot be
unreasonably withheld. Furthermore, the Company believes that any negative results from ongoing development of a single therapy or use,
would not result in abandoning the project. Given these considerations, The Company has determined that these options have alternative
future use and should be recorded as assets pursuant to ASC 730-10-25-2, Research and Development.
Related to the joint
development, the Company, under the direction of the joint steering committee, is assessing market opportunities, intellectual
property protection, and potential regulatory strategies for the CD38 Assets. Vy-Gen is responsible for development activities
conducted and overseen by the scientists at Karolinska Institute. The agreement does not currently require additional payments for
research and development costs by the Company and no additional payments are required upon development or regulatory milestones.
NOTE 4 – DEBT
In September 2021, as part of a
termination of a license agreement with Purple (see Note 3, Co-Development Options), the Company issued a convertible note in the principal
amount of $1,500,000 that was payable on or before the maturity date in February 2023, bearing interest of 5% per annum and convertible
in whole or in part at any time by Purple into shares of common stock of the Company. The conversion price is $5 per share of common stock,
subject to certain adjustments under such terms and conditions as agreed between the parties. The Company may prepay the principal amount
of the note plus accrued and unpaid interest at any time prior to the maturity date. On July 14, 2023, the Company and Purple executed
an amendment to revise the note’s payment schedule, extending the maturity date to March 31, 2024. On June 19, 2024, the Company
and Purple executed another amendment to extend the maturity date to August 31, 2024. The outstanding principal balance due under the
convertible note at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $218,750 and $625,000, respectively. The note was in default as of September
30, 2024.
In October 2022, as a result
of the Merger, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note agreement with an unrelated third party in the principal amount
of $350,000
with no accruing interest and was due on October 28, 2023 for legal services rendered to the Company. The noteholder may elect,
in its sole discretion upon written notice to the Company, at any time prior to, as of or following the maturity date, to require that
all or any portion of the principal amount not then repaid be converted, without any further action on the part of the noteholder, into
shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The conversion price as set forth by the note is equal to $10.00 per share, provided
that the conversion price shall be subject to a one-time adjustment on January 3, 2023, with the conversion price adjustable to a price
equal to the thirty-day volume weighted average price of the stock as traded on the Nasdaq. However, the conversion price following such
adjustment shall not be lower than a floor of $5.00 per share nor greater than $10.00 per share. Upon full conversion of the remaining
principal amount due, the note will, for all purposes be deemed cancelled and all obligations shall be deemed paid in full. On October
27, 2023, a $200,000
payment was made, and on December 15, 2023, another $50,000
payment was made. On June 25, 2024, the Company and the unrelated third party signed an amendment to the note that extended the
maturity date to July 31, 2024. The outstanding balance due under the convertible note at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was
$100,000. The note was in default as of September
30, 2024.
In December 2023, the
Company entered into an unsecured convertible promissory note with an unrelated party in the principal amount of $150,000 together
with interest at 5% and a maturity date of June 30, 2024. On April 24, 2024, the Company converted the note into shares of common
stock, which satisfied the note in full.
On January 3, 2024, the Company entered
into an unsecured note agreement with an unrelated third party in the principal amount of $1,500,000, which was issued with a 10% original
issue discount. The original principal amount, together with interest of 8%, was payable by the Company on March 15, 2024, and was extended
to July 31, 2024. The note had an outstanding principal balance of $1,235,178 with $150,000 of the debt discount fully amortized to interest
expense as of September 30, 2024. The note was in default as of September 30, 2024. On November 1, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with the same unrelated third party that completely
terminates and replaces this note agreement. See Note 13, Subsequent Events, for further details.
On April 17, 2024, the Company entered
into an unsecured note agreement with a related party in the principal amount of $500,000 together with interest at 10%, with a maturity
date of September 30, 2024. The agreement is between the Company and an investment fund where the manager is a member of the Company’s
board of directors. On June 3, 2024, the Company and the related party agreed to convert the note agreement in full, both principal and
interest, to equity in connection with the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock offering. See Note 5, Capital Structure, for more
information on the Series A Preferred Stock offering.
Loans under the CARES Act --
On July 8, 2020, the Company received a loan of $150,000 from the United States Small Business Administration (the “SBA”)
under its Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) assistance program in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the
Company’s business. Proceeds are intended to be used for working capital purposes. Interest on the EIDL loan accrues at the rate
of 3.75% per annum and installment payments, including principal and interest, are due monthly in the amount of $731. Each payment will
be applied first to interest accrued to the date of receipt of each payment, and the balance, if any, will be applied to principal. Installment
payments have been deferred by the SBA until January 2023. The balance of principal and interest is payable thirty years from the date
of the promissory note. The balance of the loan is $150,000, as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE
LIABILITY WARRANTS
At September 30, 2024 and December 31,
2023, there were (i) 7,500,000 public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) outstanding that were issued as part of Bull Horn’s
November 2020 initial public offering, which warrants are exercisable in the aggregate to acquire 3,750,000 shares of our common stock
at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, (ii) 3,750,000 private warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) outstanding that
were issued to our sponsor Bull Horn Holdings Sponsor LC and the underwriters in Bull Horn’s initial public offering in November
2020, which warrants are exercisable in the aggregate to acquire 3,750,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per
share, The Private Placement Warrants became exercisable on the consummation of our Business Combination in October 2022. No Public Warrants
will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable
upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock. With respect to the shares of common
stock issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants, the class A warrants and the class B warrants during any period when the Company
shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement related to the issuance of such shares underlying the applicable warrants,
the holder of any applicable warrants may exercise its warrant on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration
under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants
on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption
or liquidation.
The Company may call the Public Warrants
for redemption, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:
|
· |
at any time while the Public Warrants are exercisable, |
|
· |
upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Public Warrant holder, |
|
· |
if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the notice of redemption to Public Warrant holders, and |
|
· |
if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption. |
If the Company calls the Public Warrants
for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless
basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants
may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization,
merger or consolidation. However, except as described above, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price
below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable
to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders
of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s
assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.
The Private Placement Warrants
are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants only allow the holder thereof to one ordinary share.
Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by
the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers
or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the
same basis as the Public Warrants.
Within ASC 815, Derivative and Hedging,
Section 815-40-15 addresses equity versus liability treatment and classification of equity-linked financial instruments, including warrants,
and states that a warrant may be classified as a component of equity only if, among other things, the warrant is indexed to the issuer’s
ordinary share. Under ASC Section 815-40-15, a warrant is not indexed to the issuer’s ordinary share if the terms of the warrant
require an adjustment to the exercise price upon a specified event and that event is not an input to the fair value of the warrant. Based
on management’s evaluation, the Company’s audit committee, in consultation with management, concluded that the Company’s
Private Placement Warrants and Public Warrants are not indexed to the Company’s ordinary share in the manner contemplated by ASC
Section 815-40-15 because the holder of the instrument is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares.
In addition, based on management’s evaluation, the Company’s audit committee, in consultation with management, concluded that
certain warrant provisions preclude equity treatment as by ASC Section 815-10-15.
The Company accounts for its Public
Warrants and Private Placement Warrants as liabilities as set forth in ASC 815-40-15-7D and 7F. See below for details about the methodology
and valuation of the Warrants.
The Company follows the guidance
in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value
at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets
and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the
assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs
(market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market
participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based
on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
Level 1: |
Quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset
or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. |
|
|
Level 2: |
Observable inputs other
than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted
prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
|
|
Level 3: |
Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
The following table presents
information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2024 and December
31, 2023, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

The Warrants are accounted
for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities in the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis,
with changes in fair value presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Warrants were valued using a binomial
lattice model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The binomial lattice model’s primary unobservable input
utilized in determining the fair value of the Warrants is the expected volatility of the ordinary shares. The expected volatility as of
the Initial Public Offering date was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable ‘blank-check’ companies
without an identified target. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the close price of the Public
Warrant price will be used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

NOTE 6 – CAPITAL STRUCTURE
The total number of shares of stock
which the corporation shall have authority to issue is 160,000,000 shares, of which 150,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value shall be
designated as Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 shall be designated as Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock authorized
by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation may be issued in one or more series. The Board of Directors of the Corporation is
authorized to determine or alter the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions granted or imposed upon any wholly unissued
series of Preferred Stock, and within the limitations or restrictions stated in any resolution or resolutions of the Board of
Directors originally fixing the number of shares constituting any series, to increase or decrease (but not below the number of
shares of any such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any such series subsequent to the issue of shares of that
series, to determine the designation and par value of any series and to fix the numbers of shares of any series.
Common Stock - As of September
30, 2024, the Company had 39,968,593 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding, and on December 31, 2023, the Company had 35,331,036
shares of its common stock issued and outstanding.
During the three and nine months ended September
30, 2024 and 2023, there were no capital distributions.
On June 16, 2023, the Company completed
a public offering issuing 2,150,000 shares of our common stock, 1,350,000 pre-funded warrants, 3,062,500 Series A Warrants and 3,062,500
Series B Warrants, for net proceeds of approximately $3.0 million, after offering costs. The pre- funded warrants are immediately exercisable,
at a price of $0.0001 per share, with no expiration date. As of September 30, 2024, all of the pre- funded warrants had been exercised
for a total of 3,500,000 shares of common stock issued as a result of the public offering. The Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants
are referred to herein together as the “Series Warrants.” The shares of common stock and Series Warrants were purchased together
and then immediately separable and were issued separately. Each Series Warrant to purchase one share of common stock has an exercise price
of $1.65 per share, and is initially exercisable commencing six months from the date of the offering. The Series Warrants are exercisable
for a term of five years following the initial exercise date.
On October 26, 2023, the Company completed
a private placement of 777,000 shares of our common stock, pre-funded warrants exercisable to acquire up to 1,223,000 shares of our common
stock, Series A Warrants exercisable to acquire up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock and Series B Warrants exercisable to acquire
up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock, for net proceeds of approximately $1.8 million, after offering costs. The pre-funded warrants
are immediately exercisable, at a price of $0.001 per share, with no expiration date. In December 2023, all pre-funded warrants were exercised.
The Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants are referred to herein together as the “Series Warrants.” The shares of common
stock and Series Warrants were purchased together and then immediately separable and were issued separately. The Series A Warrants and
Series B Warrants are exercisable on or after the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company’s stockholders approve the issuance
of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Series Warrants or (ii) April 26, 2024 at an exercise price of $1.36 per share. The Series
A Warrants have a term of exercise equal to eighteen (18) months and the Series B Warrants have a term of exercise equal to five and one-half
(5.5) years. This private placement was conducted with the same underwriter as the June public offering, and as a result, each Series
Warrant issued in connection with the June offering was repriced from an exercise price of $1.65 per share to $1.36 per share. In connection
with the private placement the Company also issued to the exclusive placement agent warrants exercisable to acquire up to 120,000 shares
of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share, warrant holders 22, 23, and 24.
On December 28, 2023, the
Company granted pre-funded warrants exercisable to acquire up to 1,200,000 shares of our common stock for net proceeds of
$1,200,000. The pre-funded common stock purchase warrants can be exercised at a price of $0.0001 per share, with no expiration date.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company and the third-party borrower agreed to amend the note as a result of the decline in
the publicly traded common stock price. The amount of pre-funded warrants exercisable to acquire up to 1,200,000 shares of common
stock was amended to 2,000,000 shares of common stock, and the total principal balance of the note agreement was increased from
$1,000,000 to $1,100,000. The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant was partially pre-funded in connection with $100,000 and a
$1,100,000 subscription receivable at a 6% per annum interest rate due on November 29, 2024. On August 12, 2024, the third-party
assigned shares of common stock in a privately held company for the equivalent amount of principal and accrued interest owed as of
June 30, 2024, which satisfied the subscription receivable in full. See Note 7, Investments, for additional information.
On February 8, 2024, the Company granted
pre-funded warrants exercisable to acquire up to 4,000,000 shares of our common stock for net proceeds of $2,400,000. The pre-funded common
stock purchase warrants can be exercised at a price of $0.0001 per share, with no expiration date. The aggregate exercise price of this
Warrant was partially pre-funded in connection with $500,000 and a $1,900,000 subscription receivable at a 6% per annum interest rate
due on December 31, 2024. On August 12, 2024, the third-party assigned shares of common stock in a privately held company for the equivalent
amount of principal and accrued interest owed as of June 30, 2024, which satisfied the subscription receivable in full. See Note 7, Investments,
for additional information.

The key terms of the Series A Preferred
Stock are as follows:
Conversion. Each share of Series
A Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder, subject to the beneficial ownership and, if applicable, the primary market
limitations described below, into such number of shares of the Company’s common stock as is equal to the number of shares of Series
A Preferred Stock to be converted, multiplied by the stated value of $1,000 (the “Stated Value”), divided by the then conversion
price. The initial conversion price is $0.40 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends,
and similar transactions. In addition, the Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s common
stock, subject to the beneficial ownership and, if applicable, the primary market limitations described below upon the consummation of
a fundraising transaction in which the Company raises gross proceeds of at least $20 million.
Rank. The Series A Preferred
Stock will be senior to the Company’s common stock and any other class of the Company’s capital stock that is not by its terms
senior to or pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock.
Dividends. The holders of Series
A Preferred Stock will be entitled to dividends equal, on an as-if-converted to shares of the Company’s common stock basis (in each
case after applying the beneficial ownership and, if applicable, the primary market limitations described below), to and in the same form
as dividends actually paid on shares of the Company’s common stock when, as, and if such dividends are declared on shares of the Company’s
common stock.
Liquidation. In the event of
any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock
then outstanding will be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders, before any
payment shall be made to the holders of the Company’s common stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share equal
to the greater of (i) the Stated Value, plus any dividends accrued but unpaid thereon, or (ii) such amount per share as would have been
payable had all shares of Series A Preferred Stock been converted (in each case after applying the beneficial ownership and, if applicable,
the primary market limitations described below) into the Company’s common stock immediately prior to such event.
Voting. On any matter to be acted
upon or considered by the stockholders of the Company, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on an “as
converted” basis (after applying the beneficial ownership and primary market limitations described below).
Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
The Company will not affect any conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, and a holder will not have the right to receive dividends
or convert any portion of its Series A Preferred Stock, to the extent that prior to the conversion such holder (together with such holder’s
affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of the holder’s affiliates) beneficially owns less
than 20% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and, after giving effect to the receipt of dividends or the conversion, the holder
(together with such holder’s affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of the holder’s
affiliates) would beneficially own 20% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock.
Exchange Limitation. Unless
the approval of the Company’s stockholders is not required by the applicable rules of Nasdaq for issuances of the Company’s
common stock in excess of 19.99% of the outstanding common stock as of June 14, 2024 (the “Market Limit”), or unless the Company
has obtained such approval, the Company shall not affect any conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, including, without limitation,
any automatic conversion, and a holder shall not have the right to receive dividends on or convert any portion of the Series A Preferred
Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to the receipt of the Company’s common stock in connection with such dividends or
conversion, the holder would have received in excess of its pro rata share of the Market Limit.

Deverra Therapeutics, Inc. –
On August 16, 2023, the Company entered into an exclusive licensing arrangement (the “License Agreement”) with Deverra Therapeutics
Inc. (“Deverra”), pursuant to which the Company completed the exclusive license of key patent families and related intellectual
property related to a proprietary allogeneic stem cell expansion and directed differentiation platform for the generation of multiple
distinct immune effector cell types, including natural killer (NK) and monocyte/macrophages. The License Agreement provides the Company
with exclusive rights to use the license patents and related intellectual property in connection with development and commercialization
efforts in the defined field of use (the “Field”) of (a) use of unmodified NK cells as anti-viral therapeutic for viral infections,
and/or as a therapeutic approach for treatment of relapsed/refractory AML and high-risk MDS; (b) use of Deverra’s cell therapy platform
to generate NK cells for the purpose of engineering with Coeptis SNAP-CARs and/or Coeptis GEAR Technology; and (c) use of Deverra’s
cell therapy platform to generate myeloid cells for the purpose of engineering with the Company’s current SNAP-CAR and GEAR technologies.
In support of the exclusive license, the Company also entered into with Deverra (i) an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”)
pursuant to which the Company purchased certain assets from Deverra, including but not limited to two Investigational New Drug (IND) applications
and two Phase 1 clinical trial stage programs (NCT04901416, NCT04900454) investigating infusion of DVX201, an unmodified natural killer
(NK) cell therapy generated from pooled donor CD34+ cells, in hematologic malignancies and viral infections and (ii) a non-exclusive sublicense
agreement (the “Sublicense Agreement”), in support of the assets obtained by the exclusive license, pursuant to which the
Company sublicensed from Deverra certain assets which Deverra has rights to pursuant a license agreement (“FHCRC Agreement”)
by and between Deverra and The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (“FHCRC”).
As consideration for the
transactions described above, the Company paid Deverra approximately $570,000 in cash, issued to Deverra 4,000,000 shares of the
Company’s common stock and assumed certain liabilities related to the ongoing clinical trials. Total consideration paid was
$4,937,609, which was fully expensed in accordance with ASC 730, and is reflected within research and development in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023. In addition, in accordance with the terms of
the Sublicense Agreement, the Company agreed to pay FHCRC certain specified contingent running royalty payments and milestone
payments under the FHCRC Agreement, in each case to the extent such payments are triggered by the Company’s development
activities.
On October 26, 2023, the Company entered
into a Shared Services Agreement (“SSA”) with Deverra, in accordance with requirements set forth in the APA. Under the terms
of the SSA, Coeptis and Deverra will share resources and collaborate to further the development of Coeptis’ GEAR and SNAP-CAR platforms,
as well as the purchased and licensed assets under the License Agreement and APA. The SSA expires on October 26, 2024.
Registration Rights
Pursuant to a registration rights agreement
entered into on October 29, 2020, the holders of the founder shares, the Private Placement Warrants and underlying securities, and any
securities issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and underlying securities) would be entitled to registration rights pursuant
to a registration rights agreement. The holders of at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of these securities
were entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders
have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation
of a Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Imperial, I-Bankers and Northland did not exercise their demand and “piggyback”
registration rights after five (5) and seven (7) years after the effective date of the registration statement and did not exercise its
demand rights on more than one occasion. The registration rights agreement did not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement
provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company would bear the expenses incurred in connection
with the filing of any such registration statements.
NOTE 10 - 401(k) PROFIT-SHARING
PLAN
The Company sponsors a
qualified profit-sharing plan with a 401(k) feature that covers all eligible employees. Participation in the 401(k) feature of the
plan is voluntary. Participating employees may defer up to 100% of their compensation up to the maximum prescribed by the Internal
Revenue Code. The plan permits for employee elective deferrals but has no contribution requirements for the Company. During the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, no employer contributions were made.
NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES
For the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, no income tax expense or benefit was recognized. The Company’s deferred tax assets
are comprised primarily of net operating loss carryforwards. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets
since it has not yet achieved sustained profitable operations. As a result, the Company has not recorded any income tax benefit since
its inception.
NOTE 12 – NOTE RECEIVABLE
On July 19, 2023 the Company (“Lender”)
entered into a Senior Secured Note agreement with Deverra (“Borrower”). The Company agreed to make advances of principal to
the Borrower of up to an aggregate amount equal to $572,000. Any advances are at the sole discretion of the Company. The outstanding unpaid
principal balance of the note bears interest at 3% per annum and is due and payable on the maturity date, September 30, 2023.
In the event that a certain business
transaction between the Lender and Borrower as contemplated by that certain binding term sheet dated April 13, 2023, and referenced in
Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, is consummated prior to the maturity date, the full amounts due under this note shall be applied
against the cash portion of any closing payment due from the Lender in connection with such transaction and any excess amounts under this
note shall be treated as additional purchase price in connection with the transaction.
As of September 30, 2023, and in relation
to the Deverra asset purchase referenced in Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, $567,609 of principal and $2,892 of interest were applied
against the cash portion of the closing payment with the Company in connection with such transaction. The note is considered paid in full.
NOTE 13 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION
In September 2023, the
Company entered into a transaction with AG Bio Life Capital I LP (“AG”), a Delaware limited partnership, where an
employee of the Company is the general partner. The Company agreed to issue 600,000
shares of common stock of the Company (“AG Shares”) to AG, in exchange for $600,000,
consisting of $100,000
payable in cash and the balance payable under a promissory note (“AG Note”). The principal amount including all interest
under the AG Note is due and payable by AG no later than August 30, 2024 (the “AG Maturity Date”). The outstanding
unpaid principal balance of the AG Note bears interest commencing as of the Company’s next registration statement at the rate
of six (6%) percent per annum, which interest rate will increase to eighteen (18%) percent per annum in the event an event of
default occurs under the AG Note, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days. AG has the
option of repaying the obligations under the AG Note in advance of the AG Maturity Date, in whole or in part, at any time upon at
least thirty (30) days prior written notice delivered to the Company. AG has certain obligations to contribute the proceeds of the
sale of its AG Shares to the Company, in the event that any AG Shares are sold prior to the AG Maturity Date. On August 12, 2024, AG transferred and assigned $522,667 to the Company, the sum of principal and accrued interest
owed as of June 30, 2024, of stock in another company. As a result of this assignment agreement, the AG Note is considered paid in full,
and $522,667 is recorded as an investment at September 30, 2024.
NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has performed a review of all events
and transactions occurring after September 30, 2024 for items that would require adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements, noting no such items or transactions other than the following.
On November 1, 2024, the Company entered into
a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (“SEPA”) with YA II PN, LTD, a Cayman Islands exempt limited partnership (“Yorkville”)
pursuant to which the Company has the right to sell to Yorkville up to $20.0 million of common stock, subject to certain limitations and
conditions set forth in the SEPA, from time to time during the term of the SEPA. The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement
with Yorkville pursuant to which it will register the resale of shares of common stock issued to Yorkville pursuant to the SEPA. Sales
of the shares of common stock to Yorkville under the SEPA, and the timing of any such sales, are at the Company’s option, and the
Company is under no obligation to sell any shares of common stock to Yorkville under the SEPA, except in connection with notices that
may be submitted by Yorkville in certain circumstances as described below.
Each advance (each, an “Advance”)
the Company requests in writing to Yorkville under the SEPA (notice of such request, an “Advance Notice”) may be for a number
of shares of common stock up to such amount as is equal to 100% of the average daily volume traded of the common stock during the five
trading days immediately prior to the date the Company requests each Advance. The shares of common stock purchased pursuant to an Advance
delivered by the Company will be purchased at a price equal to 95% of the lowest daily VWAP of the shares of common stock during the three
consecutive trading days commencing on the date of the delivery of the Advance Notice, other than the daily VWAP on a day in which the
daily VWAP is less than a minimum acceptable price as stated by the Company in the Advance Notice or there is no VWAP on the subject trading
day. The Company may establish a minimum acceptable price in each Advance Notice below which the Company will not be obligated to make
any sales to Yorkville. “VWAP” is defined as the daily volume weighted average price of the shares of Common Stock for such
trading day on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) during regular trading hours as reported by Bloomberg L.P.
The SEPA will automatically terminate on the earliest
to occur of (i) December 1, 2027, provided that the Yorkville Note (described below) has been fully repaid or (ii) the date on which the
Company shall have made full payment of Advances pursuant to the SEPA. The Company has the right to terminate the SEPA at no cost or penalty
upon five trading days’ prior written notice to Yorkville, provided that there are no outstanding Advance Notices for which shares
of common stock need to be issued and the Company has paid all amounts owed to Yorkville pursuant to the Yorkville Note (described below).
The Company and Yorkville may also agree to terminate the SEPA by mutual written consent.
Any purchase under an Advance would be subject
to certain limitations, including that Yorkville shall not purchase or acquire any shares that would result in it and its affiliates beneficially
owning more than 4.99% of the then outstanding voting power or number of shares of common stock or any shares that, aggregated with shares
issued under all other earlier Advances, would exceed 19.99% of all shares of common stock outstanding on the date of the SEPA (the “Exchange
Cap”), unless the Company obtains stockholder approval to issue shares of common stock in excess of the Exchange Cap in accordance
with applicable Nasdaq rules.
In connection with the execution of the SEPA,
the Company agreed to pay a commitment fee of $200,000 to Yorkville, payable as follows: (i) $80,000 payable when the SEPA was entered
into, in the form of the issuance of 400,000 shares of common stock, representing $80,000 divided by the closing price as of the trading
day immediately prior to the date of the SEPA, and (ii) $120,000 payable in cash or by way of an Advance on the on the date upon which
the Company has first received Advances in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000.
Additionally, Yorkville agreed to advance to the
Company, in exchange for a convertible promissory note (the “Yorkville Note”), an aggregate principal amount of $1,304,758.
Interest shall accrue on the outstanding balance of the Yorkville Note at an annual rate equal to 8%, subject to an increase to 18% upon
an event of default as described in the Yorkville Note. The maturity date of the Yorkville Note is November 1, 2025. Yorkville may convert
the Yorkville Note into shares of common stock at any time at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $1.00 (the “Fixed Price”)
or (ii) a price per share equal to 95% of the lowest daily VWAP during the 5 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the conversion
date of the Yorkville Note (the “Variable Price”), but which Variable Price shall not be lower than a floor price of $0.04
(the “Floor Price”). This Yorkville Note terminates and replaces the previous note agreement dated January 3, 2024 and discussed
above in Note 4, Debt.
At any time while the SEPA is in place that there
is a balance outstanding under the Yorkville Note, Yorkville may deliver to the Company a notice (an “Investor Notice”) to
the Company to cause an Advance Notice to be deemed delivered to Yorkville and the issuance and sale of shares of Common Stock to Yorkville
pursuant to an Advance. Yorkville may select the amount of the Advance in an amount not to exceed the balance owed under the Yorkville
Note outstanding on the date of delivery of such Investor Notice. The shares will be issued and sold to Yorkville pursuant to an Investor
Notice at a per share price equal to the conversion price that would be applicable to the amount of the Advance selected by Yorkville
if such amount were to be converted as of the date of delivery of the Investor Notice. Yorkville will pay the purchase price for such
shares to be issued pursuant to the Investor Notice by offsetting the amount of the purchase price to be paid by Yorkville against an
amount outstanding under the Yorkville Note.
Additionally, the Company, at its option, shall
have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem early a portion or all amounts outstanding under the Promissory Notes at a redemption
amount equal to the outstanding principal balance being repaid or redeemed, plus a 5% prepayment premium, plus all accrued and unpaid
interest; provided that (i) the Company provides Yorkville with no less than ten trading days’ prior written notice thereof and
(ii) on the date such notice is issued, the VWAP of the common stock is less than the Fixed Price.

Company History
General. The Company was
originally incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on November 27, 2018 under the name Bull Horn Holdings Corp. On October 27, 2022,
Bull Horn Holdings Corp. domesticated from the British Virgin Islands to the State of Delaware. On October 28, 2022, in connection with
the closing of the Merger, the Company changed its corporate name from Bull Horn Holdings Corp. to “Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings,
Inc.”
The Merger Transaction. On
October 28, 2022, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bull Horn Holdings Corp., merged with and into Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc., with Coeptis
Therapeutics, Inc. as the surviving corporation of the Merger. As a result of the Merger, the Company acquired the business of Coeptis
Therapeutics, Inc., which now continues its existing business operations as the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary.
About the Company’s Subsidiaries. The Company
now operates through its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc., Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Coeptis
Pharmaceuticals, LLC.
Issuance under
Merger Transaction. Simultaneously with the closing of the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Coeptis
Therapeutics, Inc. common stock (including the shares of common stock underlying Coeptis’ series B preferred stock) converted,
on a 2.96851721 for 1 basis, into shares of our Common Stock. As of the Merger, there were no Coeptis options outstanding, and there
were warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 4,642,500 shares of Coeptis common stock at an average exercise price of $2.67
per share, which warrants converted on the closing of the Merger into warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,563,912 shares of our
common stock at an average exercise price of $7.93 per share.
On the closing of the Merger, the
former Coeptis common stock was exchanged for the right to receive 17,270,079 shares of our common stock (including 2,694,948 shares of
common stock issued in exchange for the Coeptis series B preferred stock issued and outstanding). Our common stockholders before the Merger
retained 2,246,760 shares of our common stock. As a result, immediately following the closing of the Merger, Coeptis’ former stockholders
and our then existing stockholders held approximately 88% and 12%, respectively, of the total combined voting power of all classes of
our stock entitled to vote.
As discussed in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K, the Merger was treated as a recapitalization of the Company, and was accounted for as a “reverse merger,” and Coeptis
was deemed to be the acquirer in the reverse merger. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that will
be reflected in the financial statements prior to the Merger will be those of Coeptis, and the condensed consolidated financial statements
after completion of the Merger will include the assets and liabilities of Coeptis, historical operations of Coeptis and operations of
Coeptis from the closing of the Merger.
Company History of Coeptis Therapeutics,
Inc.
Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, LLC was formed
on July 12, 2017 as a Pennsylvania multi-member limited liability company. On December 1, 2018, the members of LLC contributed their interest
to a newly formed corporation, Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. As of December 1, 2018, the LLC became a disregarded single-member limited
liability company which is wholly owned by the newly formed corporation. On February 12, 2021, Vinings Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Vinings”), merged (the “Merger”) with and into Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. On July 12, 2021, the company has
legally changed its name from Vinings Holdings, Inc. to Coeptis Therapeutics, Inc. Coeptis was the surviving corporation of that Merger.
As a result of the Merger, Vinings acquired the business of Coeptis and will continue the existing business operations of Coeptis as a
wholly owned subsidiary. The Merger was treated as a recapitalization of the Company for financial accounting purposes. The historical
financial statements of Vinings before the Merger were replaced with the historical financial statements of Coeptis before the Merger
in all future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Overview and Outlook
We are a pharmaceutical company which
owns, acquires, and develops drug products and pharmaceutical technologies which offer improvements to current therapies. Our products
and technologies are intended to be commercialized in the US and worldwide markets. Since our inception in 2017, it has acquired and commercialized
two drug products for the US market, which were approved as 505b2 applications. These anti-hypertension products were launched into the
US market during 2020 through a marketing partner. At launch, the sales and promotional efforts were significantly impeded by the limitation
of the global pandemic and as such, we have since abandoned all activities and ownership pertaining to both products. We also began the
development of several ANDA products which we divested in 2019 to a larger generic pharmaceutical drug manufacturer, and have moved away
from focusing on the commercialization of generic products. In early 2021, we entered into strategic partnerships to co-develop improved
therapies for the auto-immune and oncology markets. Following the reverse merger transaction, we continue to focus on identifying and
investing resources into innovative products and technologies which we believe will significantly transform our current products and therapies.
During 2020 and continuing through 2021,
we faced several operational challenges related to the COVID-19 global pandemic, which we continue to work to overcome. The launch of
both 505b2 products was impacted because of various COVID-19 limitations, most notably field sales personnel were not able to make healthcare
provider visits in person; thereby limiting the awareness of the availability of these products. We explored and implemented several non-personal
promotion efforts, but given the global limitations and dynamics, it was challenging to achieve expected sales. We have since abandoned
all activities and ownership pertaining to both products.
In May 2021, we entered into two exclusive
option agreements (the “CD38 Agreements”) relating to separate technologies designed to improve the treatment of CD38-related
cancers (e.g., multiple myeloma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and acute myeloid leukemia) with VyGen-Bio, Inc. (“Vy-Gen”),
a majority-owned subsidiary of Vycellix, Inc., a Tampa, Florida-based private, immuno-centric discovery life science company focused on
the development of transformational platform technologies to enhance and optimize next-generation cell and gene-based therapies, including
T cell and Natural Killer (“NK”) cell-based cancer therapies.
The CD38 Agreements relate to two separate Vy-Gen drug product
candidates, as follows:
CD38-GEAR-NK.
This Vy-Gen drug product candidate is designed to protect CD38+ NK cells from destruction by anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies, or mAbs.
CD38-GEAR-NK is an autologous, NK cell-based therapeutic that is derived from a patient’s own cells and gene-edited to enable combination
therapy with anti-CD38 mAbs. We believe CD38-GEAR-NK possesses the potential to minimize the risks and side effects from CD38-positive
NK cell fratricide.
Market
Opportunity. We believe CD38-GEAR-NK could potentially revolutionize how CD38-related cancers are treated, by protecting CD38+ NK
cells from destruction by anti-CD38 mAbs, thereby promoting the opportunity to improve the treatment of CD38-related cancers, including
multiple myeloma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and acute myeloid leukemia.
Multiple myeloma
is the first cancer indication targeted with CD38-GEAR-NK. The global multiple myeloma market was $19.48B in 2018 and is expected to reach
$31B by 2026 [Source: Fortune Business Reports].
CD38-Diagnostic.
This Vy-Gen product candidate is an in vitro diagnostic tool to analyze if cancer patients might be appropriate candidates for anti-CD38
mAb therapy. CD38-Diagnostic is an in vitro screening tool that provides the ability to pre-determine which cancer patients are most likely
to benefit from targeted anti-CD38 mAb therapies, either as monotherapy or in combination with CD38-GEAR-NK. CD38-Diagnostic also has
the potential to develop as a platform technology beyond CD38, to identify patients likely to benefit for broad range of mAb therapies
across myriad indications.
Market Opportunity.
We believe CD38-Diagnostic provides opportunity to make more cost-effective medical decisions for the treatment of B cell malignancies
with high CD38 expression, including multiple myeloma, which may help to avoid unnecessary administration of anti-CD38 therapies. CD38-Diagnostic
could prevent patients from being subjected to ineffective therapy and enable significant savings to healthcare systems.
CD38-Diagnostic
could be offered as a companion diagnostic for determining patient suitability and likelihood of positive treatment outcomes for CD38-GEAR-NK
and/or CD38 monoclonal antibody therapies.
On September 28,
2023, we received FDA’s response to our 513(g) request for information submission pertaining to the classification of the CD38-Diagnostic.
The CD38-Diagnostic has been designated a Class II type device. The confirmation of this classification is beneficial as we’re now
better able to plan for and execute future development activities.
GEAR-NK Product
Overview. GEAR-NK is an autologous, gene-edited, natural killer cell-based therapeutic development platform that allows for modified
NK cells to be co-administered with targeted mAbs, which, in the absence of the GEAR-NK, would otherwise be neutralized by mAb therapy.
In May 2021, we
made initial payments totaling $750,000 under the CD38 Agreements, to acquire the exclusive options to acquire co-development rights with
respect to CD38-GEAR-NK and CD38-Diagnostic. On August 15, 2021, we entered into amendments to each of the CD38 Agreements. In connection
with the two amendments, we delivered to VyGen promissory notes aggregating $3,250,000 with maturity dates of December 31, 2021, and made
a cash payment of $1,000,000, upon which cash payment we exercised the two definitive option purchase agreements. In December 2021, we
completed our payment obligations to secure the 50% ownership interest in the CD38-Diagnostic, and subsequently in November 2022 we completed
our purchase of the 50% ownership interest for the CD38-GEAR-NK product candidate. Details of the two August amendments and the December
amendment are summarized in the amendments attached at Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 to our Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 19, 2021 and
Exhibits 4.2 to the our Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 27, 2021.
In connection with
the Vy-Gen relationship and the Company’s ownership in the two product candidates described above, in December 2021 the Company
and Vy-Gen entered into a co-development and steering committee agreement. The co-development and steering committee agreement provides
for the governance and economic agreements between the Company and Vy-Gen related of the development of the two Vy-Gen drug product candidates
and the revenue sharing related thereto, including each company having a 50% representation on the steering committee and each company
receiving 50% of the net revenues related to the Vy-Gen product candidates. Details of the co-development and steering committee agreement
are summarized in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 27, 2021, including Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 thereto.
Vici Health
Sciences, LLC. In 2019, we entered into a co-development agreement with Vici Health Sciences, LLC (“Vici”). Through
this partnership, we would co-develop, seek FDA approval and share ownership rights with Vici to CPT60621, a novel, ready to use, easy
to swallow, oral liquid version of an already approved drug used for the treatment of Parkinson’s Disease (PD). As we continue to
direct its operational focus towards the Vy-Gen opportunities previously described, we have recently stopped allocating priority resources
to the development of CPT60621. We are currently in negotiations in which Vici intends to buy-out most or all of our remaining ownership
rights.
Our Results of Operations
Revenue. To date, we have
generated minimal revenue mostly from consulting arrangements and product sales. Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic and the resulting
market dynamics, it is uncertain if the current marketed products can generate sufficient sales to cover expenses.
Operating Expenses. General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel and professional fees for consulting services
related to regulatory, pharmacovigilance, quality, legal, and business development. We expect that our general and administrative expenses
will increase in the future as we increase our headcount to support the business growth. We also anticipate that we will incur increased
accounting, audit, legal, regulatory, compliance, insurance, and investor relation expenses associated with operating as a public company.
Research and development
costs will continue to be dependent on the strategic business collaborations and agreements will are anticipating in the future. We
expect development costs to increase to support our new strategic initiatives.
Comparison of the three months ended September 30,
2024 and September 30, 2023
Revenues.
Revenues, which were $0 and $0 during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively, continue to be minimal.
The Company’s activities primarily include product development, raising capital, and building infrastructure. Management does not
expect the Company to generate any significant revenue for at least the next two years, during which time drug development will continue
toward the goal of commercializing, through a partnership or otherwise, one or more of the Company’s target products or technologies.
Operating
Expenses
Overview.
Operating expenses decreased from $7,901,220 in the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $2,141,789 in the three months ended
September 30, 2024. The decrease is mainly due to lower professional services expense related to equity transactions.
General and
Administrative Expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, general and administrative expenses are included
in operating expenses. All costs incurred can be attributed to the planned principal operations of product development, raising capital,
and building infrastructure.
Interest
Expense. Interest expense was $19,800 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and was $50,926 for the three months
ended September 30, 2024. Interest was related to notes payable, which are discussed in detail in the notes to the unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements, incorporated by reference herein.
Comparison of the nine months
ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023
Revenues.
Revenues, which were $0 and $0 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively, continue to be minimal. The Company’s
activities primarily include product development, raising capital, and building infrastructure. Management does not expect the Company
to generate any significant revenue for at least the next two years, during which time drug development will continue toward the goal
of commercializing, through a partnership or otherwise, one or more of the Company’s target products or technologies.
Overview. Operating
expenses decreased from $18,125,156 in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to $7,892,274 in the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
The decrease is mainly due to lower professional services expense related to equity transactions.
General and Administrative
Expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, general and administrative expenses are included in operating
expenses. All costs incurred can be attributed to the planned principal operations of product development, raising capital, and building
infrastructure.
Interest Expense.
Interest expense was $93,853 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and was $317,487 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Interest was related to notes payable, which are discussed in detail in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements,
incorporated by reference herein.
Financial Resources and
Liquidity. The Company had limited financial resources during the year ended December 31, 2023 with cash and cash equivalents
of $1,469,134. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents decreased to $1,137,453, primarily as a result
of cash paid for general corporate purposes. During both these time periods, the Company continues to operate a minimal infrastructure
in order to maintain its ability to fund operations, keep full focus on all product development targets and to stay current with all of
the Company’s scientist consultants, legal counsel, and accountants. David Mehalick, our President and Chief Executive Officer,
Colleen Delaney, our Chief Scientific and Medical Officer, and Daniel A. Yerace, our Vice President of Operations, all agreed to waive
their rights to a 2023 guaranteed bonus payment under their respective employment agreements to further maintain our ability to fund operations.
During 2024, the Company believes that the ability to raise capital through equity transactions will increase liquidity and enable the
execution of management’s operating strategy.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
The Company is a smaller reporting
company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information under this Item.
Item 4. |
Controls and Procedures |
Disclosure controls and procedures
as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported,
within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures
include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed
or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial
officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, with the participation of our
chief executive officer (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (our principal financial officer) evaluated
the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon
that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, our disclosure
controls and procedures were operating effectively.
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K contains information
regarding a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. For example, the Company lacked
adequate segregation of duties which led to situations where individuals had access to both initiate and approve transactions with no
additional formal review process. This material weakness was self-diagnosed, and was not issued by our independent auditors, Turner, Stone
& Company, LLP. Management believes that as a result of actions taken by the Company, our internal controls over financial reporting
are operating effectively as of September 30, 2024.
