Our largest stockholder will have the ability to influence the outcome of director elections and other matters requiring stockholder approval.

Current report

Upon the closing of the PIPE, Janakiram Ajjarapu became a beneficial owner of approximately 27.9% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock immediately following such transaction. As such, Mr. Ajjarapu could exert substantial influence over matters requiring approval by our stockholders. This concentration of ownership may limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters for the foreseeable future, including the election of directors, amendments of our organizational documents, and any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, or any other major corporate transaction requiring stockholder approval. In addition, this may prevent or discourage unsolicited acquisition proposals or offers for our capital stock that you may believe are in your best interest as one of our stockholders.

If we were to be delisted from Nasdaq, it could reduce the visibility, liquidity, and price of our Common Stock.

Previous report

As of March 27, 2025, we have fifteen full-time employees.

Previous report

If we were to be delisted from Nasdaq, it could reduce the visibility, liquidity, and price of our Common Stock.

Previous report

On September 30, 2024, we received notification from the Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department (the “Department”) indicating that we no longer meet the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1 per share, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), Nasdaq has provided us with 180 calendar days, or until March 31, 2025 (the “Minimum Bid Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Common Stock must be at least $1 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time during this 180-day period, after which Nasdaq will provide written confirmation of compliance to us, and the matter will be closed. If we do not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the Minimum Bid Compliance Date, Nasdaq may grant us an additional compliance period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement if we meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and provide written notice to Nasdaq of our intent to cure the deficiency during this second compliance period. However, if it appears to the Nasdaq staff that we will not be able to cure the deficiency or if we do not qualify for the second compliance period or fail to regain compliance during the second 180-day compliance period, Nasdaq will provide notice to us that our Common Stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, we may appeal any such delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

Previous report

On March 24, 2025, our stockholders approved a reverse stock split of our Common Stock at a ratio in the range of 1-for-15 to 1-for-30 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), with such ratio to be determined at the discretion of our Board of Directors (the “Board”). Even if our Board determines to implement the Reverse Stock Split, the effect of the Reverse Stock Split upon the market price of our Common Stock cannot be predicted with any certainty, and the history of similar stock splits for companies in like circumstances is varied. It is possible that (i) the per share price of our Common Stock after the Reverse Stock Split will not rise in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding resulting from the Reverse Stock Split, (ii) the market price per post-reverse stock split share may not exceed or remain in excess of the $1.00 minimum bid price for a sustained period of time or (iii) the Reverse Stock Split may not result in a per share price that would attract brokers and investors who do not trade in lower priced stocks. Even if we effect the Reverse Stock Split, the market price of our Common Stock may decrease due to factors unrelated to the Reverse Stock Split. In any case, the market price of our Common Stock will be based on other factors that may be unrelated to the number of shares outstanding, including our future performance. If the Reverse Stock Split is consummated and the trading price of the Common Stock declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of our overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of the Reverse Stock Split.

Previous report

Even if the market price per post-Reverse Stock Split share of our Common Stock remains in excess of $1.00 per share, we may be delisted due to a failure to meet other continued listing requirements, including Nasdaq requirements related to the minimum number of shares that must be in the public float and the minimum market value of the public float. On August 30, 2024, we received notice from the Department that we are not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) as a result of our Market Value of Listed Securities (the “MVLS”) falling below the minimum of $35 million required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “MVLS

Requirement”) from July 15, 2024 to August 29, 2024. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), Nasdaq has provided us with 180 calendar days, or until February 26, 2025 (the “MVLS Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement. To regain compliance during the 180-day period, our MVLS must be at least $35 million for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time during this period, after which Nasdaq will provide written confirmation of compliance to us, and the matter will be closed. We did not regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement by the MVLS Compliance Date. Accordingly, on March 4, 2025, we received written notice from the Department notifying us that we had failed to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement by the MVLS Compliance Date. As such, we have requested an appeal of Nasdaq’s determination to delist our securities from the Nasdaq Capital Market. However, there can be no guarantee that we will be successful in appealing this determination and that our securities will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. A request for an appeal will stay the delisting of our securities pending Nasdaq’s decision. In addition, even if we are successful in our appeal and able to regain and maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, we may still be delisted if we do not regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement or otherwise maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s other continued listing requirements.

Previous wording

The cosmetics industry is driven in part by skincare and haircare trends, which may shift quickly. Our continued success depends on our ability to anticipate, gauge, and react in a timely and cost-effective manner to changes in consumer preferences for skincare and haircare products, consumer attitudes toward our industry and brands, and where and how consumers shop for and use these products. With the launch of our first seven skincare products in 2024, our acquisition of the Elevai Exosomes TM products in January 2025, and the anticipated launch of our remaining five skincare products during the first half of 2025, we must continually establish and enhance the recognition of our brands, maintain a favorable mix of products that are acceptable to the market, continue to develop our approach as to how and where we market and sell our products and work to develop, produce and market new products. We have an established process for the development, evaluation, and validation of our new product concepts. Nonetheless, each new product launch involves risks, as well as the possibility of unexpected results. For example, the acceptance of new product launches and sales to our consumers may not be as high as we anticipate, due to a lack of acceptance of the products themselves or their price, or the limited effectiveness of our marketing strategies. In addition, our ability to launch new products may be limited by our ability to timely manufacture, distribute, and ship new products. In the future, we may also experience a decrease in sales of our existing products as a result of newly launched products. Any of these occurrences could delay or impede our ability to achieve our sales objectives, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We maintain strict quality controls designed in accordance with GMP to ensure the safe procurement and processing of our tissue, including terminal sterilization of our products. These controls are intended to prevent the transmission of communicable disease. However, risks exist with any human tissue implantation. In addition, negative publicity concerning disease transmission from other companies’ improperly processed donated tissue could have a negative impact on the demand for our products and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Previous wording

Losing key personnel or failing to recruit necessary additional personnel would impede our ability to attain our development objectives. There is intense competition for qualified personnel in the aesthetics and biomedical field, and we may not be able to attract and retain the qualified personnel we need to develop our business. We rely on independent organizations, advisors, and consultants to perform certain services for us, including handling substantially all aspects of regulatory compliance and conducting our clinical validation and testing, and we expect to rely on organizations and individuals for the marketing and sales of our products. We expect that this will continue to be the case. Such services may not always be available to us on a timely basis, which may limit or delay our ability to develop or commercialize our products.

Current wording

As of March 27, 2026, we have ten full-time employees. Losing key personnel or failing to recruit necessary additional personnel would impede our ability to attain our development objectives.

Certain of our directors and scientific advisors serve as officers, directors, scientific advisors, or consultants of other healthcare and life science companies, or institutes that might be developing competitive products. None of our directors are obligated under any agreement or understanding with us to make any additional products or technologies available to us. Similarly, we can give no assurances, and we do not expect, and investors should not expect, that any biomedical or pharmaceutical product or technology identified by any of our directors or affiliates in the future would be made available to us other than corporate opportunities. We can give no assurances that any such other companies will not have interests that are in conflict with their interests.

Previous wording

We purchase the raw materials and packaging components that are designed to our specifications for all our cosmetic products from various third parties. In addition, we rely on a third-party manufacturer to formulate and package certain of our products. We collaborate with these vendors to meet our stringent design and creative criteria. While we believe that we currently have adequate sources of supply and services for all our products, we and our vendors may, in the future, not be able to (i) perform under any definitive manufacturing, supply or service agreements or (ii) remain in business for a sufficient time to successfully produce and market our cosmetic products. If we do not maintain important vendor relationships, we may fail to find a replacement vendor, which could delay or impair our ability to commercialize, produce, and distribute our cosmetic products and substantially increase our costs or deplete profit margins, if any. If we do find replacement vendors, we may not be able to enter into agreements with vendors on favorable terms and conditions. [LB1]

We expect to devote substantial financial resources to our ongoing and planned activities, particularly in order to develop and commercialize our cosmetic products going forward and to make significant investments to support our business growth. We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we launch our additional skincare products throughout 2025. We also expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution. Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations. To obtain such funding, we may need to engage in equity, equity-linked, or debt financings, including for possible use in acquisitions. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity, equity-linked, or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our Common Stock. Given current uncertainty in the capital markets and other factors, such funding may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all.

In addition, disputes may also arise between us and our investors or lenders. For example, the Holders (as defined in Note 9 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements) have alleged that, among other claims, we owe additional payment of principal and interest on the Convertible Notes (as defined in Note 9 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements) and that, under the terms of the Convertible Note Warrants (as defined in Note 9 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements), we are required to repurchase such Convertible Note Warrants at a purchase price equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of such Convertible Note Warrants as of the closing of the Business Combination. One of the Holders has filed suit seeking to recover such amounts allegedly owed. See Notes 9 and 11 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details. There can be no assurance that these or similar matters will not result in expensive arbitration, litigation, or other dispute resolution, including, but not limited to, the litigation filed by Puritan, which may not be resolved in our favor and may adversely impact our financial condition.

From time to time, we may consider strategic transactions, such as acquisitions of companies, business combinations, asset purchases, and out-licensing or in-licensing of products, product candidates, or technologies. Additional potential transactions that we may consider include a variety of different business arrangements, including strategic partnerships, joint ventures, restructurings, divestitures, business combinations, and investments. Any such transaction may require us to incur non-recurring or other charges, may increase our near- and long-term expenditures, and may pose significant integration challenges or disrupt our management or business, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. These transactions may entail numerous operational and financial risks, including:

In recent years, the U.S. market has experienced cyclical or episodic downturns, and worldwide economic conditions remain uncertain and volatile, as a result of current geopolitical conditions including the Israel-Hamas war, the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and conflict geopolitical tensions between the United States and China, proposed tariffs and other trade restrictions by the U.S. government and foreign governments, instability in the U.S. and global banking systems, high levels of inflation, high interest rates, the downgrading of the U.S.’s credit rating and the possibility of a recession. A decline in economic conditions, such as recession, economic downturn, and/or inflationary conditions in the U.S., could adversely and negatively impact our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

Previous wording

The FDA was required under MoCRA to propose mandatory GMPs for cosmetics by December 29, 2024, which was subsequently delayed until October 2025, and parties that operate facilities engaged in the manufacturing or processing of cosmetic products are required to register such facilities and submit product listing information to FDA by the same deadline. While we expect to meet the registration and GMP requirements, we are unable to ascertain at this time the full impact that complying with any new MoCRA requirements will have on our business. Compliance with the new requirements may further increase the cost of manufacturing certain of our products and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Current wording

The FDA was required under MoCRA to propose mandatory GMPs for cosmetics by December 29, 2025, a deadline that has been delayed multiple times, and the regulations are still forthcoming. In addition, as of July 1, 2024, parties that operate facilities engaged in the manufacturing or processing of cosmetic products for distribution in the United States are required to register such facilities with the FDA every two years, submit product listing information to the FDA and provide annual updates to such information. While we have met the registration requirements and expect to meet the GMP requirements, we are unable to ascertain at this time the full impact that complying with any new MoCRA requirements will have on our business. Compliance with the new requirements may further increase the cost of manufacturing certain of our products and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our operations, and those of our directors, employees, advisors, contractors, consultants, and collaborators, could be adversely affected by earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, typhoons, other extreme weather conditions, fires, water shortages, power failures, business systems failures, medical epidemics or pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and other natural and man-made disaster or business interruptions, many of which are beyond our and such third parties’ control. Our phones, electronic devices, and computer systems, and those of our directors, employees, advisors, contractors, consultants, and collaborators, are vulnerable to damages, theft and accidental loss, negligence, unauthorized access, terrorism, war, electronic and telecommunications failures, and other natural and man-made disasters. These locations may be subject to additional security and other risk factors due to the limited control of our employees. If such an event as described above were to occur in the future, it may cause interruptions in our operations, delay research and development programs, clinical validation, regulatory compliance activities, manufacturing and quality assurance activities, sales and marketing activities, hiring, training of employees and persons within associated third parties, and other business activities.

We cannot be certain that all patents applied for will be issued or that our existing patents can be maintained. If a third party has also filed a patent application relating to an invention claimed by us or one or more of our licensors, we may be required to participate in an interference or derivation proceeding declared or instituted by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, which could result in substantial uncertainties and cost for us, even if the eventual outcome is favorable to us. The degree of future patent protection for our cosmetic products and technology is uncertain. For example:

Our success depends in part on our ability to protect our intellectual property rights. We rely on a combination of trademarks, trade secrets, confidential proprietary information, domains, licensed patent rights, and other intellectual property rights to protect our intellectual property. We may be subject to competition despite the existence of intellectual property we license or own. We can give no assurances that our intellectual property will be sufficient to prevent third parties from designing around the patents we own or license and developing and commercializing competitive products. The existence of competitive products that avoid our intellectual property could materially adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Furthermore, limitations, or perceived limitations, in our intellectual property may limit the interest of third parties to partner, collaborate, or otherwise transact with us, if third parties perceive a higher than acceptable risk to the commercialization of our products or future products.

We are presently dependent largely upon the experience, abilities, and continued services of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Rajiv Shukla. The loss of services of Mr. Shukla could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operation. Other key executives are important to our ongoing capability to develop, commercialize, and, if necessary, obtain regulatory approval for our cosmetic products. The competition for executive talent may make it difficult to replace any of these key positions in a timely manner. We do not maintain “key employee” insurance policies on any of our executive officers that would compensate us for the loss of their services. The time and cost required to replace a key employee may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2024, we had negative net working capital of $4,921,151, a net loss from continuing operations of $10,650,464, and negative net cash flow from operations of $4,388,948. We have historically relied on raising capital to fund our operations. Based on our working capital balance as of December 31, 2024 and projected cash needs for the next twelve months, our management estimates that we will need to raise additional capital to cover operating and capital requirements. Management will need to raise the additional funds through issuing additional shares of Common Stock or other equity securities or obtaining debt financing. There can be no assurance that any required future financing can be successfully completed on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us. Based on these circumstances, management has determined there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

From time to time, we may become involved in various legal proceedings relating to matters incidental to the ordinary course of our business, including intellectual property, commercial, product liability, employment, class action, whistleblower, shareholder derivative suits, and other litigation and claims, and governmental and other regulatory investigations and proceedings. The Holders of the Convertible Notes have alleged that we owe additional principal and interest thereon and are required to repurchase the Convertible Note Warrants. Puritan has filed suit seeking to recover such amounts allegedly owed. Our management believes that our obligations under the Convertible Notes have been satisfied and that no additional payments are due to the Holders, and we have conveyed our position to the Holders. Nevertheless, we cannot assure you that we will prevail. Such matters can be time-consuming, divert management’s attention and resources, cause us to incur significant expenses or liability, or require us to change our business practices. Because of the potential risks, expenses, and uncertainties of litigation, we may, from time to time, settle disputes, even where we believe that we have meritorious claims or defenses. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable, we cannot assure you that the results of any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

We have incurred net losses each year since our inception, and we may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability in the future. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had a loss from continuing operations of $10,650,464 and $16,205,252, respectively, and negative cash flows from operations of $4,388,948 and $8,348,208, respectively. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities and convertible debt. We have devoted substantially all of our financial resources and efforts to research and development, including preclinical studies and clinical trials, and we anticipate that our expenses will continue to increase over the next several years as we continue to develop and launch our cosmetic products, expand into new markets and increase our sales and marketing efforts. These efforts may be more costly than we expect and may not result in increased revenue or growth in our business. Accordingly, we expect to continue to incur substantial operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year.

Our overall performance depends, in part, on worldwide economic conditions. The U.S. and global markets have experienced cyclical or episodic downturns, and worldwide economic conditions remain uncertain and volatile, as a result of current geopolitical conditions including the Israel-Hamas war, the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and geopolitical tensions between China and the U.S., proposed tariffs and other trade restrictions by the U.S. government and foreign governments, instability in the U.S. and global banking systems, high levels of inflation, high interest rates, the downgrading of the U.S.’s credit rating and the possibility of a recession. Impacts of such economic weakness include:

As of March 27, 2025, we have fifteen full-time employees. We will need to grow the size of our organization in order to support our continued development and commercialization of our cosmetic products. As our development and commercialization plans and strategies continue to develop, our need for additional managerial, operational, manufacturing, sales, marketing, financial, and other resources will increase. Our management, personnel, and systems currently in place will not be adequate to support this future growth. Future growth would impose significant added responsibilities on members of management, including:

Pursuant to the warrant agreement entered into upon closing of the IPO, we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC to register the issuance of the shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the warrants issued in the IPO. We prepared and filed such registration statement on August 7, 2023. The registration statement was not declared effective by the 60 th business day following the closing of the Business Combination. As a result, until such registration statement is declared effective by the SEC, such warrants may be exercised by the holders thereof on a cashless basis.

We prepared and filed such registration statement on August 7, 2023. The registration statement was not declared effective by the 60 th business day following the closing of the Business Combination. On October 15, 2025, we submitted a request to the SEC to withdrawal the registration statement because we had decided not to pursue the offering due to business decisions. As a result, until a subsequent registration statement is filed with, and declared effective by, the SEC, such warrants may be exercised by the holders thereof on a cashless basis.

Previous wording

We have incurred substantial costs in connection with the filing of the registration statement. We will be required to amend the registration statement to include certain financial statements of AxoBio and to update certain financial and other information since the date of the original filing of the registration statement. We may incur substantial costs in connection with such amendment and completion of the SEC review process. In addition, for as long as the warrants remain exercisable on a cashless basis until the effectiveness of the registration statement, we would not be able to receive any cash proceeds from the exercise thereof, preventing such potential proceeds from improving our liquidity position. Any shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, for cash or on a cashless basis, would also increase the number of shares outstanding and available for sale, which could result in downward pressure on the price of our Common Stock.

If we do not maintain important vendor relationships, we may fail to find a replacement vendor, which could delay or impair our ability to commercialize, produce, and distribute our cosmetic products and substantially increase our costs or deplete profit margins, if any. If we do find replacement vendors, we may not be able to enter into agreements with vendors on favorable terms and conditions.
