Amesite Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2024 and 2023

Note 1 - Nature of Business and Liquidity

Amesite Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in November 2017. Amesite is a pioneering technology company specializing in the development and marketing of B2C and B2B AI-driven solutions, including its higher ed platform that offers professional learning. Leveraging its proprietary AI infrastructure, Amesite offers cutting-edge applications that cater to both individual and professional needs. NurseMagic™, the company’s mobile healthcare app, streamlines creation of nursing notes and documentation tasks, enhances patient communication, and offers personalized guidance to nurses on patient care, medications, and handling challenging workplace situations.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company is developing its customer base and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenue sufficient to cover its expenses. The Company has had a history of net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception and expects to continue to incur net losses and use cash in its operations in the foreseeable future.

The assessment of the Company’s ability to meet its future obligations is inherently judgmental, subjective and susceptible to change. Based on their current forecast, management believes that it may not have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to maintain the Company’s planned operations for the next twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements. The Company has considered both quantitative and qualitative factors that are known or reasonably knowable as of the date of these financial statements are issued and concluded that there are conditions present in the aggregate that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

In response to the conditions, management plans include generating cash by completing financing transactions, which may include offerings of common stock. However, these plans are subject to market conditions, and are not within the Company’s control, and therefore, cannot be deemed probable. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in implementing their plans. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and considering the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company has a fiscal year with a June 30 year end.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards require certain assets and liabilities be reported at fair value in the financial statements and provide a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value.

Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. These Level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on management’s own estimates using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques.

In instances wherein inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The total amount of bank deposits (checking and savings accounts) that were insured by the FDIC at year end was $250,000.

As of June 30, 2024 the Company reclassified a portion of its cash balance to “Restricted Cash” in the balance sheets to reflect amounts pledged as collateral for the Company’s credit card facility. This change in presentation has been applied retrospectively, and prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, restricted cash totaled $100,000. This reclassification had no impact on the Company’s statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, or cash flows for any periods presented.

Income Taxes

A current tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated taxes payable or refundable on tax returns for the year. Deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognized for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between financial reporting and tax accounting.

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

Technology and Content Development

Technology and content development expenditures consist primarily of personnel and personnel-related expense and contracted services associated with the maintenance of our platform as well as hosting and licensing costs and are charged to expense as incurred. It also includes amortization of capitalized software costs and research and development costs related to improving our platform and creating content that are charged to expense as incurred.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. The straight-line method is used for computing depreciation and amortization. Assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated (amortized) over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.

Depreciable Life - Years
Leasehold improvementsShorter of estimated lease term or 10 years
Furniture and fixtures7 years
Computer equipment and software5 years

Capitalized Software Costs

The Company capitalizes costs incurred in the development of software for internal use, including the costs of the software, materials, consultants, and payroll and payroll related costs for employees incurred in developing internal use computer software. Software development projects generally include three stages: the preliminary project stage (all costs are expensed as incurred), the application development stage (certain costs are capitalized and certain costs are expensed as incurred) and the post-implementation/operation stage (all costs are expensed as incurred). Capitalization of costs requires judgment in determining when a project has reached the application development stage, the proportion of time spent in the application development stage, and the period over which we expect to benefit from the use of that software. Once the software is placed in service, these costs are amortized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, which is generally three years.

Revenue Recognition

We generate our revenue from contractual arrangements with businesses, colleges and universities to provide a comprehensive platform of integrated technology and technology enabled services related to product offerings. During the year-end June 30, 2024 and 2023, we recognized revenue from contracts with customers of $166,881 and $845,009, respectively, of which $0 related to services transferred at a point in time and the remainder related to services provided over time.

Performance Obligations and Timing of Recognition

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied.

We derive revenue from annual licensing arrangements, including maintenance fees, setup fees and other fees for course development and miscellaneous items. Our contracts with customers generally have a one-year term. The promises to set up and provide a hosted platform of tightly integrated technology and services customers need to attract, enroll, educate, and support students are not distinct within the context of the contracts. This performance obligation is satisfied as the customers receive and consume benefits, which occurs ratably over the contract term.

Occasionally, we will provide professional services, such as custom development, non-complex implementation activities, training, and other various professional services. We evaluate these services to determine if they are distinct and separately identifiable in the context of the contract. In our contracts with customers that contain multiple performance obligations because of this assessment, we allocate the transaction price to each separate performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices of our solutions and services are typically estimated based on observable transactions when the solutions or services are sold on a standalone basis. When standalone selling prices are not observable, we utilize a cost-plus margin approach to allocate the transaction price.

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations because the consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a service that forms part of a single performance obligation (i.e., consideration received is based on the level of product offerings, which is unknown in advance). During the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, five customers comprised approximately 97% and 87% of total revenue, respectively.

We also receive fees that are fixed in nature, such as annual license and maintenance charges. The fees are independent of the number of students that are enrolled in courses with our customers and are allocated to and recognized ratably over the service period of the contract that the Company’s platform is made available to the customer (i.e., the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of the software over the contract service period).

The following factors affect the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows:

●The majority of our customers are private and public learning institutions across various domestic regions
●The majority of our customers have annual payment terms

The following table shows revenue from contracts with customers by customer type for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Total$166,881$845,009

Accounts Receivable, Contract Assets and Liabilities

Balance sheet items related to contracts consist of accounts receivable (net) and contract liabilities on our balance sheets. Accounts receivable (net) is stated at net realizable value, and we utilize the allowance method to provide for doubtful accounts based on management’s evaluation of the collectability of the amounts due. Our estimates are reviewed and revised periodically based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of accounts receivable. Historically, actual write-offs for uncollectible accounts have not significantly differed from prior estimates. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable balances as of June 30, 2024 and 2023.

We may recognize revenue prior to billing a customer when we have satisfied or partially satisfied our performance obligations as billings to our customers may not be made until after the service period has commenced. As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, we had $15,000 and $0, respectively, of contract assets.

Contract liabilities as of each balance sheet date represent the excess of amounts billed or received as compared to amounts recognized in revenue on our statements of operations as of the end of the reporting period, and such amounts are reflected as a current liability on our balance sheets as deferred revenue. We generally receive payments prior to completion of the service period and our performance obligations. These payments are recorded as deferred revenue until the services are delivered or until our obligations are otherwise met, at which time revenue is recognized.

Some contracts also involve annual license fees, for which upfront amounts are received from customers. In these contracts, the license fees received in advance of the platform’s launch are recorded as contract liabilities.

The following table provides information on the changes in the balance of contract liabilities for the years ended June 30:

2024 · 2023
Opening balance$53,958$342,672
Plus billings112,923556,295
Less revenue recognized from continuing operations(166,881)(845,009)
Closing balance$-$53,958

Revenue recognized during the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 that was included in the deferred revenue balance that existed in the opening balance of each year was approximately $53,958 and $311,806, respectively.

The deferred revenue balance as of June 30, 2024 is$0.

Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the year by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period.

At June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company had 633,000 and 758,079 potentially dilutive shares of common stock related to common stock options and warrants, respectively, as determined using the if-converted method. For the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the dilutive effect of common stock options and common stock warrants has not been included in the average shares outstanding for the calculation of net loss per share as the effect would be anti-dilutive as a result of our net losses in these years.

Stock-Based Compensation

We have issued four types of stock-based awards under our stock plans: stock options, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, and stock warrants. All stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and independent contractors are measured at fair value at each grant date. We rely on the Black-Scholes option pricing model for estimating the fair value of stock-based awards granted, and expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock prices. Stock options generally vest over two years from the grant date and generally have ten-year contractual terms. Restricted stock units generally have a term of 12 months from the closing date of the agreement. Stock warrants issued have a term of five years. Information about the assumptions used in the calculation of stock-based compensation expense is set forth in Notes 4 and 6 in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company operates in an industry subject to rapid change. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, technological, and other risks associated with an early-stage company, including the potential risk of business failure.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has evaluated recently issued accounting pronouncements and has determined that none of the new or recently adopted standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) are expected to have a material impact on its financial statements or related disclosures.

Note 4 - Common Stock

The Company’s preferred stock has a $.0001 par value;5,000,000 shares have been authorized; andno shares have been issued or are outstanding.

On February 15, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, the stockholders also approved a proposal to amend the Company’s certificate of incorporation to affect a reverse split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 at a specific ratio within a range of one-for five (1-for-5) to a maximum of one-for-fifty (1-for-50) to be determined by the Company’s board of directors in its sole discretion.

Following the Special Meeting, the board of directors approved a one-for-twelve (1-for-12) reverse split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On February 21, 2023, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of amendment to its certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to affect the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split became effective as of 4:01 p.m. Eastern Time on February 21, 2023, and the Company’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis when the Nasdaq Stock Market opened on February 22, 2023.

The Reverse Stock Split did not change the par value of the Company's common stock. Any fractional shares of common stock resulting from the Reverse Stock Split were rounded up to the nearest whole post-Reverse Stock Split share. All outstanding securities entitling their holders to acquire shares of common stock were adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. All common share and per share data are retrospectively restated to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented herein.

On August 2, 2021, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), under which, subject to specified terms and conditions, the Company may sell to Lincoln Park up to $16.5 million worth of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement, which ended on August 2, 2023. No shares were sold as part of this agreement.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into an introducing broker agreement with Laidlaw & Company (UK) Ltd. (“Laidlaw”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay a cash fee to Laidlaw (the “Introductory Fee”) equal to (i)8% of the amount of the Initial Purchase, (ii)8% of the amount of a one-time share request up to $1,000,000 (“Tranche Purchase”), if any, and (iii)4% of up to the next $13,500,000 (or up to $14,500,000 if the Tranche Purchase is not exercised).

Upon entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold 63,260 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park as an initial purchase for a total purchase price of $1,500,000 (the “Initial Purchase”). The Company received net proceeds from the Initial Purchase of $1,360,000 after the payment of the Introductory Fee and offering costs. As consideration for Lincoln Park’s commitment to purchase up to $16.5 million of shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued 12,726 shares of common stock to Lincoln Park. If Lincoln Park is requested to purchase additional shares during the term of the Purchase Agreement, the requested shares, (“Regular Purchase”), are limited based on the current share price of the Company’s common stock. If the average price is below $36.00 per share, the Company is limited to issuing 4,167 shares per request; if the share price is between $36.00 and $48.00 per share, the limit is 6,250 shares per request, if the share price is between $48.00 and $60.00, the limit is 8,334 shares per request, and if the share price is above $60.00, the limit is 12,500 shares per request. Requests for purchases are permitted daily as long as the Company’s stock price is above $6.00 per share. The price for such regular purchases will be the lower of: (i) the lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock on the purchase date for such Regular Purchase and (ii) the arithmetic average of the three (3) lowest closing prices of the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) consecutive business days immediately preceding. Additionally, the Company may instruct Lincoln Park to purchase additional shares of common stock that exceed the Regular Purchase limits (“Accelerated Purchase”). If the Company requests Lincoln Park to make an Accelerated Purchase, the price per share is discounted from average historical closing prices. No additional shares were sold to Lincoln Park in the year ended June 30, 2024.

The Company evaluated the contract that includes the right to require Lincoln Park to purchase additional shares of common stock in the future (“put right”) considering the guidance in ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts on an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”) and concluded that it is an equity-linked contract that does not qualify for equity classification, and therefore requires fair value accounting. The Company has analyzed the terms of the put right and has concluded that it has no value as of June 30, 2024 and 2023.

On February 11, 2022, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Laidlaw, as representative of the several underwriters, to issue and sell up to 286,459 shares of the Company’s common stock, at a public offering price of $9.60 per share. On February 14, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated underwriting agreement in order to increase the number of shares sold in the offering to 312,500. On February 16, 2022, the Company closed the offering, and sold 312,500 shares of common stock to Laidlaw for total gross proceeds of $3,000,000. After deducting the underwriting commission and expenses, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $2,509,550. In connection with the offering, the Company issued five (5) year warrants to the underwriter to purchase 15,625 common shares at an exercise price of $12.00.

The Company measures the warrants using the BSM to estimate their fair value. The fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the offering was approximately $94,165 based on the following inputs and assumptions using the BSM: (i) expected stock price volatility of 80.10%; (ii) risk free interest rate of 1.63%; and (iii) expected life of the warrants of 5 years. The warrants were fully vested on the date of grant and are included in offering costs in the Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.

On July 12, 2022, the Company issued 10,417 of its common stock totaling $61,250 in value to a consulting firm in exchange for strategic advisory and digital marketing services. These shares vested immediately upon issuance.

On September 1, 2022, the Company sold 348,485 shares of common stock for approximately $1.85 million, net of financing fees and expenses, and in a concurrent private placement, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 348,485 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $9.84 per share. The fair value of the warrants issued was approximately $953,460 based on the following inputs and assumptions using the BSM: (i) expected stock price volatility of 94.90%; (ii) risk free interest rate of 3.54%; and (iii) expected life of the warrants of 5.5 years.

In connection with the offering, the Company issued five (5) year warrants to the underwriter to purchase 17,424 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $8.25 per share. The fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the offering was approximately $42,454 based on the following inputs and assumptions using the BSM: (i) expected stock price volatility of 94.90%; (ii) risk free interest rate of 3.54%; and (iii) expected life of the warrants of 5 years. The warrants were fully vested on the date of grant and are included in offering costs.

Note 5 - Warrants

As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, there were 397,791 and 521,038 warrants outstanding, respectively. During the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company issued 0 and 402,561 common stock warrants, respectively, to a placement agent related to fundraising and other advisory services. The warrants are fully vested, have a term of 5 years from the closing date of the private placements and an exercise price of $8.25 and $9.84 per share, respectively. During the year ended June 30, 2024,123,257 of warrants expired. See Note 4 for additional terms of the warrants.

The Company measures the fair value of warrants using the Black-Scholes Model. The fair value of the warrants issued during the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was approximately $0 and $2,026,010, respectively, based on the following inputs and assumptions below.

20242023
Volatility (percent)N/R94.90%
Risk-free rate (percent)N/R3.54%

Note 6 - Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) permits the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, or restricted stock units to officers, employees, directors, consultants, agents, and independent contractors of the Company. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees, directors, and consultants with those of its stockholders. Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant; those option awards generally vest over two years from the grant date and generally have ten-year contractual terms. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting (as defined in the Plan).

The Company has reserved 843,035 shares of common stock to be available for granting under the Plan.

The Company estimates the fair value of each option award using the Black-Scholes Model (“BSM”) that uses the weighted average assumptions included in the table below. Expected volatilities used in the BSM assumptions are based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock prices. The expected term of stock options granted has been estimated using the simplified method because the Company is generally unable to rely on its limited historical exercise data or alternative information as a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term of such options. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company has not paid any dividends on common stock since its inception and does not anticipate paying dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future. When calculating the amount of annual compensation expense, the Company has elected not to estimate forfeitures and instead accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used for estimating the fair value of the stock options granted for the year ended:

For the Year Ended June 30,

Risk-free interest rate4.36%
Expected volatility112.5%

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the year ended June 30, 2024 was $2.30. No options were granted during the year ended June 30, 2023. The options contained time-based vesting conditions satisfied over one to ten years from the grant date. During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 23,500 options. During the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, no options were exercised, and 8,114 and 26,558 options were terminated, respectively.

On September 28, 2021, the Board approved certain stock awards to its board members in the form of stock options and restricted stock. The stock option awards are expected to vest ratably over twelve-month period from beginning September 28, 2021 through September 28, 2022. The approved compensation was $172,702 in stock options. The number of options was determined based on the fair value of the Company’s share price as of the date of grant. The Company determined that there will be 28,090 of restricted shares issued upon vesting, based on the fair value of the Company’s share price on the grant date.

For the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $18,137 and $179,534, in expense related to the Plan, respectively.

As of June 30, 2024, there was approximately $65,957 of total unrecognized compensation cost for employees and non-employees related to nonvested options. These costs are expected to be recognized through June 2028.

The restricted stock awards vested over a twelve-month period beginning July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022. The approved compensation was $600,000 in restricted stock. The Company also recognized $600,000 as stock-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock unit grants made to the board members for the twelve months ended June 30, 2022 as part of general and administrative expenses. The cost related to the grants made to board members is expected to be recognized through September of 2022.

The Company recognized $900,000 as stock-based compensation expense for board members for the year ended June 30, 2024. No expense was recognized for the year ended June 30, 2023.

On May 3, 2024, the board of directors of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2018 Plan by 508,488 shares and increase the number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options by 508,488 shares. The amendment to the 2018 Plan is intended to ensure that the Company can continue to provide an incentive to employees, directors and consultants by enabling them to share in the Company’s future growth. If approved by the stockholders, all of the additional shares would be available for grant as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or as nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, or other kinds of equity-based compensation available under the 2018 Plan. The amendment to the 2018 Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s special meeting on June 18, 2024.

Net deferred tax assets--

The Company has approximately $27.7 million of net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state, available to reduce future income taxes. Approximately$17,000 of the federal net operating losses will expire in 2037 and the balance can be utilized indefinitely (the stated value here has been limited to 80% utilization). The state net operating losses will begin to expire in 2027. Due to uncertainty as to the realization of the net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets, as a result of the Company’s limited operating history and operating losses since inception, a full valuation allowance has been recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets. The Company does not have any uncertain tax positions. The net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation as a result of a change of ownership as defined under Internal Revenue Code Section 382. Tax years 2019-2023 remain open to examination for federal income tax purposes and by other major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

The company has evaluated subsequent events through September 30, 2024. No material subsequent events have been identified that would require adjustments to or disclosures in the financial statements as of and for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
