As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless the context requires otherwise, references to the “Company”, “Jasper”, “we”, “us”, “our”, and similar terms refer to Jasper Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as Amplitude Healthcare Acquisition Corporation (“AMHC”), and its consolidated subsidiary. References to “Old Jasper” refer to the private Delaware corporation that is now our wholly-owned subsidiary and named Jasper Tx Corp. (formerly known as Jasper Therapeutics, Inc.).

On September 24, 2021, we consummated the previously announced Business Combination (as defined below) (pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, dated May 5, 2021, by and among AMHC, Ample Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and Old Jasper). Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, a business combination (herein referred to as the “Business Combination” or “Reverse Recapitalization” for accounting purposes) between AMHC and Old Jasper was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Old Jasper with Old Jasper surviving as AMHC’s wholly-owned subsidiary. In connection with the Business Combination, AMHC changed its name from Amplitude Healthcare Acquisition Corporation to Jasper Therapeutics, Inc.

Unless otherwise noted or the context requires otherwise, references to our “common stock” refer to our voting common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. In addition, except as otherwise indicated, all information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K gives effect to the 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the common stock that was effected on January 4, 2024.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K may constitute “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal securities laws. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions (including the negative of any of the foregoing) may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

Forward-looking statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K may include, for example, but are not limited to, statements about:

●our or our management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future, including those relating to the impact of the Business Combination on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations;
●our ability to research, discover and develop additional product candidates;
●the success, cost and timing of our product development activities and clinical trials;
●the potential attributes and benefits of our product candidates;
●our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval for our product candidates;
●our ability to obtain funding for our operations;
●our projected financial information, anticipated growth rate and market opportunity;
●our ability to maintain the listing of our public securities on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”);
●our public securities’ potential liquidity and trading;
●our success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, officers, key employees or directors;

ii

●our ability to grow and manage growth profitably;
●the implementation, market acceptance and success of our business model, developments and projections relating to our competitors and industry;
●our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection and not infringe on the rights of others;
●our ability to identify, in-license or acquire additional technology; and
●our ability to maintain existing license agreements and manufacturing arrangements.

These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that we consider immaterial or which are unknown. It is not possible to predict or identify all such risks. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because of the risks and uncertainties related to them and to the risk factors. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
