Aspira Womens Health Inc

(Unaudited)

ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES

Organization

Aspira Women’s Health Inc. (“Aspira” and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company”) is incorporated in the state of Delaware, and is engaged in the business of developing and commercializing diagnostic tests for gynecologic disease. The Company currently markets and sells the following products and related services:

(1) the Ova1Plus workflow, which uses Ova1 as the primary test and Overa as a reflex for Ova1 intermediate range results. Ova1 is a qualitative serum test intended as an aid to further assess the likelihood of malignancy in women with an ovarian adnexal mass for which surgery is planned when the physician’s independent clinical and radiological evaluation does not indicate malignancy. Overa is a second-generation biomarker test intended to maintain Ova1’s high sensitivity while improving specificity. The Ova1 workflow leverages the strengths of Ova1’s (MIA) sensitivity and Overa’s (MIAG2G) specificity to reduce incorrectly elevated results; and

(2) OvaWatch, a Laboratory Developed Test (“LDT”) intended in the initial and periodic clinical assessment of malignancy risk in all women thought to have an indeterminate or benign adnexal mass.

Collectively, these tests are referred to and marketed as OvaSuite.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s product and related revenue was limited to the products described above, as well as residual revenue from Aspira GenetiX, which was discontinued in the third quarter of 2022. The Company’s products are distributed through its own national sales force, including field sales, inside sales and a contracted sales team, through its proprietary decentralized testing platform and cloud service marketed as Aspira Synergy, and through marketing and distribution agreements with BioReference Health, LLC and ARUP Laboratories.

Overa is currently not offered commercially except as a reflex test performed as part of the Ova1Plus workflow.

Going Concern and Liquidity

The Company has incurred significant net losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception, and as a result has an accumulated deficit of approximately$526,462,000 and working capital deficit of approximately($2,207,000) as of June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of$8,159,000 and used cash in operations of$8,172,000. The Company had a balance in cash and cash equivalents of$962,000 as of June 30, 2024. The Company also expects to continue to incur a net loss and negative cash flows from operations for the remainder of 2024. In order to fund operations, meet its capital requirements or satisfy the anticipated obligations as they become due, the Company expects to take further action to protect its liquidity position, which include, but are not limited to:

•

Raising capital through equity or debt offerings either in the public markets or via private placement offering; to the extent that the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, the Company’s stockholders may experience significant dilution. However, no assurance can be given that capital will be available on acceptable terms, or at all;

•

Securing debt, however, no assurance can be given that debt will be available on acceptable terms or at all;

•

Reducing executive bonuses or replacing cash compensation with equity grants;

•

Reducing professional services and consulting fees and eliminating non-critical projects;

•

Reducing travel and entertainment expenses; and

•

Reducing eliminating or deferring discretionary marketing programs.

The Company also has outstanding warrants to purchase shares of its common stock that may be exercised although there can be no assurance that the warrants will be exercised.

There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve or sustain profitability or positive cash flow from operations. Management expects cash from product sales and licensing to be the Company’s only material, recurring source of cash in 2024. Given the above conditions, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these consolidated interim financial statements are filed. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

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”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of results for the periods presented, have been included. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year or any other interim period.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the presumption that users of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023 included in this report has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all the information and notes required by GAAP. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated 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 on April 1, 2024.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated results.

Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

Product Revenue – OvaSuite: The Company recognizes product revenue in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Product revenue is recognized upon completion of the OvaSuite test and delivery of results to the physician based on estimates of amounts that will ultimately be realized. In determining the amount of revenue to be recognized for a delivered test result, the Company considers factors such as payment history and amount, payer coverage, whether there is a reimbursement contract between the payer and the Company, and any developments or changes that could impact reimbursement. These estimates require significant judgment by management as the collection cycle on some accounts can be as long as one year. The effect of any change made to an estimated input component and, therefore revenue recognized, would be recorded as a change in estimate at the time of the change.

The Company also reviews its patient account population and determines an appropriate distribution of patient accounts by payer (i.e., Medicare, patient pay, other third-party payer, etc.) into portfolios with similar collection experience. The Company has elected this practical expedient that, when evaluated for collectability, results in a materially consistent revenue amount for such portfolios as if each patient account were evaluated on an individual contract basis. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were $4,000 and $6,000, respectively, of adjustments to estimates of variable consideration to derecognize revenue for services provided in a prior period. There wereno impairment losses on accounts receivable recorded during thethree and six months ended June 30, 2024.

The Company has discontinued providing Aspira GenetiX, including genetics carrier screening, on the Aspira Synergy platform, effective September 30, 2022.

Accounts Receivable: Virtually all accounts receivable are derived from sales made to customers located in North America. The Company grants credit to customers in the normal course of business and the resulting trade receivables are stated at their net realizable value. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable, including the historical collection cycle. Amounts are written off against the allowances for credit losses when the Company determines that a customer account is not collectable. The Company believes its exposure to concentrations of credit risk is limited due to the diversity of its payer base.

Warrants: The Company accounts for common stock warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the warrants and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815-40, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own stock and whether the events where holders of the warrants could potentially require net cash settlement are within the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance. Warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification are recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance and are not remeasured. Warrants that do not meet the required criteria for equity classification are classified as liabilities. The Company adjusts such warrants to fair value at each reporting period until the warrants are exercised or expire. Any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity(“ASU 2020-06”). This update was issued to assist in simplifying the accounting for convertible instruments. This ASU is scheduled to be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2024. Theadoption of this standard didnot have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions(“ASU 2022-03”) to clarify guidance in Topic 820 on the fair value measurement of an equity security that is subject to a contractual sale restriction and also requires specific disclosures related to an equity security. ASU 2022-03 is scheduled to be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company doesnot expect a material impact as a result of this standard on its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative (“ASU 2023-06”). The amendments in this ASU are expected to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of ASC topics by aligning them with the SEC’s regulations. ASU 2023-06 will become effective for each amendment on the effective date of the SEC's corresponding disclosure rule changes. The Company does not expect ASU 2023-06 will have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”) to update reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. This ASU requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within the reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss, requires interim disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually, requires disclosure of the position and title of the CODM, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, and contains other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 is scheduled to be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments of the Company consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash accounts, receivable, and accounts payable, and warrant liability. These items are considered Level 1 due to their short-term nature and their market interest rates. Warrant liability is considered Level 2 and is recorded at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Debt is considered Level 3, which the Company does not record at fair value.

The Company records warrants in connection with a public offering in 2022 (the “2022 Warrants”) as a liability. As discussed in Note 6 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in connection with a registered direct offering in 2024, the Company amended certain of the 2022 Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 366,664 shares (the “Modified Warrants”). The terms of the remaining 433,321 of the 2022 Warrants were unchanged (the “Unmodified Warrants”).

The fair values of the Modified Warrants as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were approximately $331,000 and $757,000, resp ectively. The fair values of the Unmodified Warrants as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were approximately $180,000 and $894,000, resp ectively.

The fair value of the 2022 Warrants was estimated using Black-Scholes pricing model based on the following assumptions:

The 2022 Warrants were deemed to be derivative instruments due to certain contingent put features. The fair value of the 2022 Warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, deemed to be an appropriate model due to the terms of the 2022 Warrants issued, including a fixed term and exercise price.

The fair value of the Warrants was affected by changes in inputs to the Black-Scholes option pricing model including the Company’s stock price, expected stock price volatility, the contractual term, and the risk-free interest rate. This model uses Level 2 inputs, including stock price volatility, in the fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. The 2022 Warrants are classified as a long-term liability on the Company’s balance sheet.

The carrying value of the Company’s insurance promissory note approximates fair value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, due to the short-term nature of the insurance note and is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The DECD loan is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the carrying value and fair value of the DECD loan. The fair value of the DECD loan is estimated based on discounted cash flows using the prevailing market interest rates.

PREPAID AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

Prepaid and other current assets at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 consist of the following:

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Loan Agreement

On March 22, 2016, the Company entered into a loan agreement (as amended, the “DECD Loan Agreement”) with the State of Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development (the “DECD”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $4,000,000 from the DECD. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 2.0% per annum and requires equal monthly payments of principal and interest until maturity, which occurs on January 1, 2032. As security for the loan, the Company has granted the DECD a blanket security interest in the Company’s personal and intellectual property. The DECD’s security interest in the Company’s intellectual property may be subordinated to a qualified institutional lender.

The loan may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty. An initial disbursement of $2,000,000 was made to the Company on April 15, 2016 under the DECD Loan Agreement. On December 3, 2020, the Company received a disbursement of the remaining $2,000,000 under the DECD Loan Agreement, as the Company had achieved the target employment milestone necessary to receive an additional $1,000,000 under the DECD Loan Agreement and the DECD determined to fund the remaining $1,000,000 under the DECD Loan Agreement after concluding that the required revenue target would likely have been achieved in the first quarter of 2020 in the absence of the impacts of COVID-19.

Under the terms of the DECD Loan Agreement, the Company was eligible for forgiveness of up to $1,500,000 of the principal amount of the loan if it was able to achieve certain job creation and retention milestones by December 31, 2022. On June 26, 2023, the Company was notified by the DECD that the Company satisfied all job creation and retention requirements under the loan agreement to receive forgiveness of $1,000,000. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded the $1,000,000 as other income in the statement of operations. If the Company fails to maintain its Connecticut operations through March 22, 2026, the DECD may require early repayment of a portion or all of the remaining amount of the loan plus a penalty of 5% of the total funded loan.

On June 6, 2023, the Company was granted a deferral of interest and principal payments on a portion of the remaining outstanding balances through December 1, 2023. On January 30, 2024, the Company was granted an additional deferral of interest and principal payments on a portion of the remaining outstanding balances through June 1, 2024. The Company determined the loan deferrals met the definition of a troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470-60, Troubled Debt Restructurings by Debtors, as the Company was experiencing financial difficulties and the lenders granted a concession. The future undiscounted cash flows of the DECD loan after the loan deferrals exceeded the carrying value of the DECD loan prior to the loan deferrals. As such no gain was recognized as a result of the deferrals.

Long-term debt consisted of the following:

As of June 30, 2024, the annual amounts of future minimum principal payments due under the Company’s contractual obligation are shown in the table below. Unamortized debt issuance costs for the DECD loan were$6,000 and $8,000 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Insurance Notes

During 2023, the Company entered into an insurance promissory note for the payment of insurance premiums at an interest rate of 7.79%, with an aggregate principal amount outstanding of approximately$166,000 and$670,000 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Interest paid for the promissory note was $6,000 and $12,000 forthree and six months ended June 30, 2024. Interest paid for the promissory note was $6,000 and $12,000 forthree and six months ended June 30, 2023. The amount outstanding in 2024 could be substantially offset by the cancellation of the related insurance coverage which is classified in prepaid insurance. This note is payable innine monthly installments with a maturity date of October 1, 2024 and has no financial or operational covenants.

Operating Leases

The Company leases facilities to support its business. The Company’s principal facility, including the Clinical Laboratory Improvements Amendments of 1988 (“CLIA”) laboratory used by Aspira Labs, Inc., is located in Austin, Texas, and an administrative office is located in Shelton, Connecticut. The Company also had an administrative office in Palo Alto, California through May 31, 2024.

The expense associated with these operating leases for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is shown in the table below (in thousands).

Based on the Company’s leases as of June 30, 2024, the table below sets forth the approximate future lease payments related to operating leases with initial terms of one year or more (in thousands).

Weighted-average lease term and discount rate were as follows.

Non-cancellable Royalty Obligations

The Company is a party to an amended research collaboration agreement with The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine under which the Company licenses certain of its intellectual property directed at the discovery and validation of biomarkers in human subjects, including but not limited to clinical application of biomarkers in the understanding, diagnosis and management of human disease. Under the terms of the amended research collaboration agreement, Aspira is required to pay the greater of 4% royalties on net sales of diagnostic tests using the assigned patents or annual minimum royalties of $57,500.

Royalty expense for thesix months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 totaled $151,000 and $178,000, respectively, and are recorded in cost of revenue in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Business Agreements

On August 8, 2022, the Company entered into a sponsored research agreement with Harvard’s Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Brigham & Women’s Hospital, and Medical University of Lodz (the “Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz Research Agreement”), for the generation of a multi-omic, non-invasive diagnostic aid to identify endometriosis based on circulating microRNAs and proteins. The Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz Research Agreement requires payments to be made upon the achievement of certain milestones. Under the terms of and as further described in the Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz Research Agreement, payments of approximately $1,252,000 have or will become due from the Company to the counterparties upon successful completion of certain deliverables as follows:68% was paid in 2022,15% was paid in 2023, and the remaining 17% will become payable upon completion of certain deliverables estimated to occur in the second half of 2024. During three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, approximately $17,000 and

$24,000 has been recorded, respectively. During thesix months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, approximately $51,000 and $47,000 has been recorded, respectively, as research and development expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement of operations for the project. From the inception of the Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz Research Agreement through June 30, 2024, research and development expenses in the cumulative amount of $1,134,000 have been recorded.

On March 20, 2023, the Company entered into a licensing agreement (“Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz License Agreement”) with Harvard’s Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Brigham & Women’s Hospital, and Medical University of Lodz under which the Company will license certain of its intellectual property to be used in the Company’s OvaSuite product portfolio. Under the Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz License Agreement, the Company paid an initial license fee of $75,000 and pays an annual license maintenance fee of $50,000 on each anniversary of the date of the Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz License Agreement. The Company recorded $25,000 in annual license maintenance fees during thesix months ended June 30, 2024. The Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz License Agreement also requires non-refundable royalty payments of up to $1,350,000 based on certain regulatory approvals and commercialization milestones and further royalty payments based on the net sales of the Company’s products included under the Dana-Farber, Brigham, Lodz License Agreement. No milestones have been reached as of June 30, 2024.

Contingent Liabilities

From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings and regulatory proceedings arising from operations. The Company establishes reserves for specific liabilities in connection with legal actions that management deems to be probable and estimable.

ACCRUED LIABILITIES

The following table describes the principal components of accrued liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

2024 Registered Direct Offering

On January 24, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “2024 Direct Offering Agreement”), with several investors relating to the issuance and sale of 1,371,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and pre-funded warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), in a registered direct offering, together with accompanying warrants to purchase 1,571,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Warrants”, and together with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Warrants”) in a concurrent private placement (the “Concurrent Private Offering” and together with the registered direct offering, the “2024 Direct Offering”).

Pursuant to the 2024 Direct Offering Agreement, the Company issued 1,368,600 shares of common stock to certain investors at an offering price of $3.50 per share, and 2,400 shares of common stock to its Chief Executive Officer, Nicole Sandford, at an offering price of $4.255 per share, which was the consolidated closing bid price of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on January 24, 2024 of $4.13 per share plus $0.125 per Purchase Warrant. The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Warrant is equal to the combined purchase price at which a share of Common Stock and the accompanying Purchase Warrant is sold in this 2024 Direct Offering, minus $0.0001. The gross proceeds to the Company from the 2024 Direct Offering were approximately $5,563,000, before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated expenses of $733,000 payable by the Company. The 2024 Direct Offering closed on January 26, 2024.

The Pre-Funded Warrants were exercisable at any time after the date of issuance and had an exercise price of $0.0001 per share. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants could not exercise the warrant if the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. A holder of Pre-Funded Warrants may increase or decrease this percentage to a percentage not in excess of 9.99% by providing at least 61 days’ prior notice to the Company. All of the Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised on February 6, 2024 for gross proceeds of $20.

The Purchase Warrants have an exercise price of $4.13 per share and will be exercisable beginning six months after issuance and will expire 5 years from the initial exercise date.

The Company engaged AGP to act as sole placement agent in the 2024 Direct Offering. The Company paid the placement agent a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds generated from the 2024 Direct Offering, except that, with respect to proceeds raised in this 2024 Direct Offering from certain designated persons, AGP’s cash fee is reduced to 3.5% of such proceeds, and to reimburse certain fees and expenses of the placement agent in connection with the 2024 Direct Offering. The Company also reimbursed the placement agent for its accountable offering-related legal expenses of $75,000 and a non-accountable expense allowance of $30,000. Costs related to the 2024 Direct Offering were recorded as an offset to additional paid-in capital on the Company's balance sheet as of June 30, 2024.

The Company evaluated the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Purchase Warrants and concluded that they met the criteria to be classified as equity within additional paid-in-capital.

The Pre-Funded Warrants are equity classified because they (1) are freestanding financial instruments that are legally detachable and separately exercisable from the common stock, (2) are immediately exercisable, (3) do not embody an obligation for the Company to repurchase its shares, (4) permit the holder to receive a fixed number of shares of common stock upon exercise, (5) are indexed to the Company's common stock and (6) meet the equity classification criteria.

The Purchase Warrants are equity classified because they (1) are freestanding financial instruments that are legally detachable and separately exercisable from the common stock, (2) do not embody an obligation for the Company to repurchase its shares, (3) permit the holder to receive a fixed number of shares of common stock upon exercise, (4) are indexed to the Company's common stock and (5) meet the equity classification criteria.

Effective upon the closing of the 2024 Direct Offering, the Company also amended certain existing warrants (the “2022 Warrants”), see Note 7 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year-ended December 31, 2023, to purchase up to an aggregate of 366,664 shares at an exercise price of $13.20 per share and a termination date of August 25, 2027, so that the amended 2022 Warrants have a reduced exercise price of $4.13 per share and a new termination date of January 26, 2029. The other terms of the amended 2022 Warrants remain unchanged. The Company performed an analysis of the fair value of the 2022 Warrants immediately before and after the modification and the increase in fair value of the 2022 Warrants of $490,000 was recorded as a change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the unaudited condensed statement of operations.

Approximately $106,000 of the costs related to the 2024 Direct Offering were allocated to the 2022 Warrants and were recorded as other expensein the unaudited condensed statement of operations.

2023 Registered Direct Offering

On July 20, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Direct Offering Agreement”), with several investors relating to the issuance and sale of 1,694,820 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Direct Offering”).

Pursuant to the Direct Offering Agreement, the Company issued 1,650,473 shares of common stock to certain investors at an offering price of $2.75 per share, and 44,347 shares of common stock to its directors and executive officers at an offering price of $3.98 per share, which was the consolidated closing bid price of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on July 19, 2023. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Direct Offering were approximately $4.7 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated expenses of $597,000 payable by the Company.

The Company engaged Alliance Global Partners to act as sole placement agent in the Direct Offering. The Company paid the placement agent a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds generated from the Direct Offering, except that, with respect to proceeds from the sale of 182,447 shares of common stock to certain investors, including directors and executive officers of the Company, the placement agent’s cash fee was 3.5%. The Company also reimbursed the placement agent for its accountable offering-related legal expenses of $75,000 and a non-accountable expense allowance of $30,000.

2023 At the Market Offering

On February 10, 2023, the Company entered into a Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement, (the “Cantor Sales Agreement”), with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., (“Cantor”), as agent, pursuant to which it may offer and sell, from time to time, through Cantor, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $12.5 million, (the “Placement Shares”). The Placement Shares were issued and sold pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-252267), as previously filed with, and declared effective by, the SEC. The Company filed a prospectus supplement, dated February 10, 2023, with the SEC in connection with the offer and sale of the Placement Shares.

In connection with the Direct Offering on July 24, 2023, the Company delivered written notice to Cantor on July 19, 2023 that it was suspending the prospectus supplement, dated February 10, 2023, related to the Company’s common stock issuable under the Cantor Sales Agreement. The Company will not make any sales of common stock pursuant to the Cantor Sales Agreement unless and until a new prospectus supplement is filed with the SEC. The Cantor Sales Agreement was terminated in August 2024.

LOSS PER SHARE

The Company calculates basic loss per share using the weighted average number of shares of Aspira common stock outstanding during the period. The Company considers 2022 Warrants to be participating securities, because holders of such instruments participate in the event a dividend is paid on common stock. The holders of the 2022 Warrants do not have a contractual obligation to share in the Company’s losses. As such, losses are attributed entirely to common stockholders and for periods in which the Company has reported a net loss, diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share. Because the Company is in a net loss position, diluted loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of Aspira common stock outstanding and excludes the anti-dilutive effects of 3,239,038 potential shares of Aspira common stock for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 1,583,982 potential shares of Aspira common stock for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2023, inclusive of 2,370,985 and 799,985 shares of Aspira common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
