5. Share capital
Authorized
The Company has authorized an unlimited number of common shares participating, voting and without par value. Each holder of common shares is entitled to one vote for each share owned on all matters voted upon by shareholders.
On October 28, 2024, the Company completed a reverse share split at the ratio of 1-for-2, resulting in 10,846,721 common shares after conversion.
Conversion of convertible notes
On May 3, 2024, the Company issued convertible notes in the principal amount of $5,172,500. The convertible notes accrued interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable in-kind semi-annually in arrears in the form of either cash or common shares of the Company, at the election of the holder, and had a maturity date of December 31, 2025.
Prior to January 1, 2025, the convertible notes would automatically convert to common shares in the event that the Company completed an initial public offering in the United States, at a conversion price equal to the greater of (i) a 20% discount to the initial public offering price and (ii) $4.00; or if there had been a change of control, at a conversion price of $4.00 per common share. On or after January 1, 2025, conversion would be at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $4.00 per common share. The Company had the option to redeem all or any portion of the convertible notes at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the date of redemption. In the event of a change of control, the Company would offer to repurchase the convertible notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the date of repurchase. The Company elected to account for the convertible notes in their entirety at fair value through profit and loss.
Subsequently, the note holders were given the option to convert at a conversion price of $4.00 per share prior to July 31, 2024. On June 28, 2024, all of the holders of the convertible notes elected to convert to common shares. The Company paid cash interest of $40,563 and accrued interest of $38,462 was converted, along with the principal amount of $5,172,500, into 1,308,798 common shares.
Private placement
On June 28, 2024, the Company issued 1,461,250 common shares as part of a private placement for total proceeds of $5,845,000 at $4.00 per common share. The company incurred finders' fees of $375,000, which were recognized in equity as deduction from the gross proceeds received.
Regulation A Offering
On March 10, 2025, the Company closed a Tier II Regulation A offering for gross proceeds of $4,172,000. The Company issued 1,490,000 units at a price of $2.80 per unit. Each unit consisted of one common share of the Company and one warrant to purchase one common share of the Company (each a "Regulation A Warrant"). The Regulation A Warrants have an exercise price of $2.80 per share and will expire 5 years from the date of issuance on March 10, 2030. The Company incurred total issuance costs of $483,020, including legal fees and placement fees directly related to the issuance. The issuance costs incurred were recognized as a reduction in equity and allocated based on the relative fair values of the Regulation A Warrants and common shares on a standalone basis. The fair value of the common shares was based on the Company's share price on the day of issuance of $3.40 and the fair value of the Regulation A Warrants was $2.63 per warrant. The Regulation A Warrants were recognized in additional paid-in capital as they met the criteria for equity classification.
June 2025 Public Offering
On June 2, 2025, the Company closed a public offering of 2,260,000 units, with each unit consisting of one common share of the Company, and one warrant to purchase one common share, at a price of $3.10 per unit (the "June 2030 Warrants"), for gross proceeds of $7,006,000, before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses (the "June 2025 Public Offering"). The June 2030 Warrants were immediately exercisable for one of our common shares at an exercise price of $3.10 per share and will expire 5 years from the date of issuance on June 3, 2030. The units were offered pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, initially filed with the SEC under the Securities Act on May 27, 2025 and declared effective by the SEC on May 29, 2025. The Company incurred issuance costs of $809,606, including legal fees and placement fees directly related to the issuance. The issuance costs incurred were recognized as a reduction in equity and allocated based on the relative fair values of the June 2030 Warrants and common shares on a standalone basis. The fair value of the common shares were based on the Company's share price on the day of issuance of $2.63 and the fair value of the June 2030 Warrants were $1.92 per warrant. The June 2030 Warrants were recognized in additional paid-in capital as they met the criteria for equity classification.
The fair value of the Regulation A Warrants and June 2030 Warrants were estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions:
| Issue Date March 10, 2025 | Issue Date June 2, 2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| Valuation date share price | $3.40 | $2.63 |
| Exercise price | $2.80 | $3.10 |
| Dividend yield | - | - |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.98% | 4.01% |
| Expected warrant life | 5.00 years | 5.00 years |
| Expected volatility | 97.81% | 97.42% |
As of June 30, 2025,133,800 of the 1,490,000 Regulation A Warrants have been exercised for cash, with 5,000 being exercised in the three months ended March 31, 2025, for proceeds to the Company of $374,640 ($14,000 of which related to the three months ended March 31, 2025).
Initial Public Offering
On November 14, 2024, the Company completed its initial public offering ("IPO") with the sale of 970,000 Units at the price of $4.125 per Unit, with each Unit (the "Unit") consisting of one common share and one warrant (the "Public Warrants" and with the Regulation A Warrants and the June 2030 Warrants, the "Warrants") to purchase one common share at the exercise price of $4.64 per share. The Public Warrants expire five years from their date of issuance on November 15, 2029. In addition, the underwriters exercised an option to purchase 145,500 Public Warrants (the "Overallotment Warrants") at a price of $0.01 per warrant.
Total gross proceeds from the IPO were $4,002,705, including the proceeds from the Overallotment Warrants. The Company incurred total issuance costs of $2,218,014, including underwriter fees, and legal and other professional fees incurred directly related to the issuance.
The incremental costs directly associated with the issuance were recognized as a deduction in equity and allocated based on the relative fair values of the Public Warrants and common shares on a standalone basis.
The fair value of the common shares was based on the Company's share price on the day of issuance of $2.65 and the fair value of the Public Warrants was $1.7419 per warrant. The Public Warrants were recognized in additional paid-in capital as they met the criteria for equity classification.
The fair value of the Public Warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following inputs:
| Valuation date share price | $2.65 |
|---|---|
| Exercise price | $4.64 |
| Expected dividend yield | - |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.32% |
| Expected term (in years) | 5 years |
| Expected volatility | 95% |
As of June 30, 2025,129,905 Public Warrants have been exercised for cash for proceeds to the Company of $602,759.
The number of Warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2025:
| Warrants outstanding | ||
|---|---|---|
| Expiry date | Exercise price | Number outstanding |
| November 15, 2029 | $4.64 | 985,595 |
| March 10, 2030 | $2.80 | 1,351,200 |
| June 2, 2030 | $3.10 | 2,260,000 |
Standby Equity Purchase Agreement
On February 10, 2025, the Company also announced that it had entered into a standby equity purchase agreement (the "SEPA") with YA II PN, Ltd. ("Yorkville"). Pursuant to the SEPA and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, Yorkville has committed to purchase the Company's common shares, no par value, in increments up to an aggregate gross sales price of up to $15,000,000 during the 36 months following the date of the SEPA (such shares, the "Shares"). The Shares will be sold at the Company's option pursuant to the SEPA at 97% of the Market Price (as defined pursuant to the SEPA) and purchases are subject to certain limitations set forth in the SEPA. As consideration for Yorkville's commitment to purchase the common shares pursuant to the SEPA, the Company paid Yorkville a structuring fee in the amount of $25,000 and issued to Yorkville 105,840 common shares with a share price of $2.83 at issuance. The Company also incurred legal fees of $391,898 related to the SEPA. These costs together are classified as deferred issuance costs on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet and will be recorded as a reduction of common shares when a financing under the SEPA occurs. As of June 30, 2025, there have been no sales made under the SEPA.
6. Stock-based compensation
At June 30, 2025, the Company had in place a stock option plan for employee, non-employee directors, and consultants of the Company (the "Plan"). The Plan provides both for the direct award or sale of shares and for the grant of options to purchase shares. Under the plan the total number of shares available for options cannot exceed 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares at the time of any grant. The Company is authorized to issue options to employees, non-employee directors and consultants under the plan.
On June 25, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the acceleration of vesting for all outstanding share options to June 25, 2024, resulting in the Company recognizing the remaining expense for all share options outstanding and unvested as of that date.
The following table summarizes option transactions for the Plan:
| Number of options | Weighted average exercise price $ | Weighted average remaining contractual life (years) | Aggregate intrinsic value $ | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outstanding at December 31, 2024 | 1,185,000 | 1.47 | 4.18 | 1.18 |
| Granted | 100,000 | 2.60 | 5.00 | - |
| Outstanding at June 30, 2025 | 1,285,000 | 1.56 | 3.79 | 1.43 |
| Exercisable at June 30, 2025 | 980,000 | 1.25 | 4.01 | 1.74 |
| Unvested at June 30, 2025 | 305,000 | 2.56 | 4.44 | - |
As of June 30, 2025, there were $541,867 of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to share options outstanding, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.25 years.
The weighted average grant date fair value of awards for options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $1.96. The fair value of options granted was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, resulting in the following weighted average assumptions for the options granted:
| Weighted-average | |
|---|---|
| Exercise price | $2.60 |
| Share price | $2.60 |
| Dividend | - |
| Risk-free interest | 4.02% |
| Estimated life (years) | 5.00 |
| Expected volatility | 97.36% |
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, stock-based compensation expense was $117,448 and $229,725, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, stock-based compensation expense was $585,442 and $621,395, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense has been reported in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss within general and administrative expenses.
7. Net loss per share
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders was calculated as follows:
| Three months ended June 30, | Six months ended June 30, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | |
| Net loss attributable to shareholders | $(6,176,084) | $(3,632,859) | $(11,278,492) | $(5,340,217) |
| Weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year | 14,284,261 | 8,167,993 | 13,853,305 | 8,122,333 |
| Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to shareholders | $(0.43) | $(0.44) | $(0.81) | $(0.66) |
The Company's potentially dilutive securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, include stock options, warrants, and notes payable. The Company excluded the potential ordinary shares outstanding at each period end from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect.
8. Related party transactions
On October 18, 2023, the Company signed an agreement with RBx Capital, LP ("RBx"), a family office controlled by the Company's Executive Chairman and CEO, that provides for certain managerial positions to be filled from within RBx. RBx is responsible for the payment and provision of all wages, bonuses, and benefits for these positions. Reimbursable salaries paid to RBx pursuant to this agreement are $125,000 per month. In December 2024, reimbursable salaries were changed to $100,000 per month. Reimbursable salaries paid to RBx were $300,000 and $375,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Reimbursable salaries paid to RBx were $600,000 and $675,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additional expenses of $64,046 and $38,770 were incurred by RBx on behalf of the Company during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additional expenses of $104,911 and $124,178 were incurred by RBx on behalf of the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The total amount of accounts payable to RBx was $121,273 and $142,459 as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
9. Fair value measurements
The accounting guidance for fair value establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, or which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions
The following table presents information about the Company's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the level of the fair value hierarchy utilized to determine such fair values:
| Level 1 · Level 2 · Level 3 · Total | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Current assets: | |||||||
| Money market funds | $8,273,495 | $ | - | $ | - | $8,273,495 | |
| Total assets measured at fair value | $8,273,495 | $ | - | $ | - | $8,273,495 | |
| Liabilities: | |||||||
| Debentures | $ | - | $ | - | $4,700,000 | $4,700,000 | |
| Total liabilities measured at fair value | $ | - | $ | - | $4,700,000 | $4,700,000 | |
| Level 1 · Level 2 · Level 3 · Total | |||||||
| Current assets: | |||||||
| Money market funds | $4,164,323 | $ | - | $ | - | $4,164,323 | |
| Total assets measured at fair value | $4,164,323 | $ | - | $ | - | $4,164,323 | |
The Company's cash equivalents are classified as Level 1. The fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents is determined based on market pricing that is both objective and publicly available.
The Company did not reclassify any investments between levels in the fair value hierarchy during the periods presented.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying amounts of the Company's other financial instruments, which include cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate fair values because of their short-term maturities.
10. Commitment and contingencies
Commitments
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had no long-term commitments.
Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, from time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims related to operations, rights, commercial, employment or other claims. Although such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not consider the Company's exposure to such claims to be material to these consolidated financial statements.
11. Segment reporting
The Company manages the business activities on a consolidated basis and operates as one reportable segment that constitutes all of the consolidated entity, which is the business of advancing the clinical development program of the Company's product, while opportunistically identifying, evaluating, and acquiring accretive assets, properties or businesses. The Company's CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The CODM uses consolidated net loss to measure segment loss, allocate resources and assess performance. The significant segment expense categories (general and administrative and research and development) are consistent with those presented on the face of the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Other segment items are interest (income) expense which are consistent with those presented on the face of the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Additionally, the CODM reviews cash forecast models to determine where the Company will invest in planned research and development activities.
12. Debentures
On May 2, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Yorkville, under which the Company has issued and sold three debentures (the "Debentures") to Yorkville in an aggregate principal amount totaling $5,000,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The Debentures were issued at a discounted price of 90% for proceeds to the Company of $4,500,000. Interest will accrue on the outstanding principal amount of each Debenture at an annual rate of 8%, subject to a potential increase to 18% per annum upon the occurrence of certain events of default. The Debentures will mature on February 2, 2026 and are required to be repaid using proceeds from the SEPA.
The Company elected the fair value option to account for the Debentures. The underlying methodology used was a discounted cash flow approach. The Company initially recorded the Debentures at fair value with any differences between the transaction price and fair value recorded as a gain or loss in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss. It was determined that the Debentures were issued at fair value and therefore there was no gain or loss at the issuance date. Based on the fair value option, the Company will subsequently remeasure the Debentures at fair value at each reporting period with the gain or loss recognized in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Debentures were remeasured to reflect changes in market yields at June 30, 2025, resulting in a change in fair value of $200,000 and was recorded in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
13. Antev Agreement
On June 29, 2025, the Company, Antev Limited ("Antev") and certain securityholders of Antev entered into a definitive securities exchange agreement (the "Definitive Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Antev, on a fully diluted basis, in exchange for 2,666,600 (or approximately 17% in aggregate) of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company (the "Consideration Shares"). In addition to resale restrictions prescribed under applicable securities laws, the Consideration Shares will be subject to a staggered lock-up (including certain registration rights, as further described in the Definitive Agreement) and an agreement granting certain voting rights in favor of Company management for a period of 36 months. Upon the achievement of certain milestones related to potential future U.S. Food and Drug Administration Phase 2 and New Drug Administration approvals, as more particularly described in the Definitive Agreement, Antev shareholders will be entitled to receive up to approximately $65,000,000 in additional contingent consideration. The Antev acquisition is expected to close before the end of August 2025, subject to the fulfillment of certain closing conditions, including obtaining Antev shareholder approval and other applicable corporate, regulatory and other third-party approvals. No assurances can be given that the parties will successfully close the transaction on the terms or timeframe currently contemplated or at all. Antev is a clinical stage biotech company, developing Teverelix, a next generation GnRH antagonist, as first in market product for cardiovascular high-risk prostate cancer patients and patients with first acute urinary retention (AURr) episodes due to enlarged prostate.
14. Liquidity
The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $40,182,395, which was comprised of $12,384,244 of accumulated deficit of SkinJect, Inc. as of September 30, 2023, the day after it became a subsidiary of the Company, and $27,798,151 of deficit accumulated by the Company on a consolidated basis since September 30, 2023. Since inception, the Company has funded its operations primarily through equity and debt financings.
On February 10, 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into the SEPA. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, Yorkville has committed to purchase the Company's common shares up to an aggregate gross sales price of $15,000,000 during the 36 months following the date of the SEPA. See Note 5 for further details. On July 9, 2025 and July 14, 2025, the Company sold 155,000 and 335,000 common shares to Yorkville under the SEPA at a per share price of approximately $3.28 and $3.02 per share, for proceeds of approximately $509,000, and $1,012,000, respectively.
On March 10, 2025, the Company closed its Tier II Regulation A offering for gross proceeds of approximately $4,172,000. The Company issued 1,490,000 units at a price of $2.80 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share of the Company and one Regulation A Warrant.
On May 2, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Yorkville whereby, in three separate tranches, the Company issued three Debentures totaling $5,000,000 in the aggregate, for gross proceeds of approximately $4,500,000 following the 90% issuance price. Interest will accrue on the outstanding principal amount at an annual rate of 8%. The Debentures will mature on February 2, 2026. Proceeds of the SEPA, if any, will be applied to repay a portion of the principal amount outstanding of the Debentures.
On May 29, 2025, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement with Maxim Group LLC, relating to the June 2025 Public Offering. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the offering, which closed on June 2, 2025, were $7,006,000, before deducting placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses. See "June 2025 Public Offering" in Note 5 for further details.
On July 14, 2025, the Company entered into an inducement agreement with a certain accredited and institutional holder to exercise 1,340,000 Regulation A Warrants. Pursuant to the agreement, the holder, upon exercise, received new unregistered warrants to purchase up to 2,680,000 common shares upon the exercise of the new warrants. The new warrants have an exercise price of $3.75 per common share and expire five years from the date of issuance. The Company received $3,752,000 upon the exercise of the Regulation A Warrants pursuant to the inducement agreement.
The Company expects to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve its cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet its obligations. These measures could cause significant delays or entirely prevent the Company's continued efforts to commercialize its current or future products, which are critical to the realization of its business plan and the future operations of the Company. This uncertainty, along with the Company's history of losses, indicates that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In addition to accessing public markets through the exercise of outstanding warrants, additional public and private debt and equity financings, and the SEPA, management believes that the Company has access to additional capital resources through public and/or private equity offerings, debt financings or other capital sources, including potential collaborations, licenses and other similar arrangements. However, it is possible that the Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, and the Company may not be able to enter into strategic alliances or other arrangements on favorable terms, or at all. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Company's shareholders. If the Company is unable to obtain funding, the Company could be required to delay, reduce or eliminate research and development programs, product portfolio expansion, or future commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business prospects. The Company is subject to risks associated with any specialty biotechnology company that has substantial expenditures for research and development. There can be no assurance that the Company's research and development projects will be successful, that products developed will obtain necessary regulatory approval, or that any approved product will be commercially viable.
15. Subsequent Events
On July 9, 2025 and July 14, 2025, the Company sold 155,000 and 335,000 common shares to Yorkville under the SEPA at a per share price of approximately $3.28 and $3.02 per share, for proceeds of approximately $509,000, and $1,012,000, respectively.
On July 14, 2025, the Company entered into an inducement agreement with a certain accredited and institutional holder to exercise 1,340,000 Regulation A Warrants.
