NOTE 2 –BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN CONDITION
Basis of Presentation
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025.
NOTE 2 –BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN CONDITION (continued)
Going Concern
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $14,132,000 at June 30, 2025 and had incurred recurring net losses and generated negative cash flow from operating activities of approximately $15,941,000 and $3,028,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
The Company has a limited operating history and its continued growth is dependent upon the continuation of generating rental revenue from its income-producing real estate property in New Jersey, generating revenue for selling of Keto Air, and obtaining additional financing to fund future obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations. In addition, the current cash balance cannot be projected to cover the operating expenses for the next twelve months from the release date of this report. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, implement its business plan, and generate significant revenue. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in its efforts to generate significant revenue, maintain sufficient cash balance or report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern. The Company plans on raising capital through the sale of equity to implement its business plan. However, there is no assurance these plans will be realized and that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if any.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statementsdo not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 –SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Significant estimates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 include the useful life of investment in real estate and intangible assets, the assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets, theallowance for credit loss, the valuation of deferred tax assets and the associated valuation allowances, the valuation of stock-based compensation, the valuation of Series D convertible preferred stock (“Series D Preferred Stock”), and the assumptions used to determine fair value of warrants and embedded conversion features of convertible note payable.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted the guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 for fair value measurements which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
| ● | Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date. |
| ● | Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data. |
| ● | Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information. |
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring***basis.***Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on an ongoing basis. These assets and liabilities include derivative liability.
*Derivative liability.*Derivative liability is carried at fair value and measured on an ongoing basis. The table below reflects the activity of derivative liability measured at fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2025:
| Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | |
|---|---|
| Balance of derivative liability as of January 1, 2025 | $127,545 |
| Initial fair value of derivative liability attributable to Second Warrant (as hereinafter defined) issuance with June 2024 fund raise (see Note 6) | 621,353 |
| Gain from change in the fair value of derivative liability | (446,816) |
| Reclassification of additional paid-in capital upon conversion | (176,529) |
| Balance of derivative liability as of June 30, 2025 | $125,553 |
ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments”, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value optionto any outstanding instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s cash balances by geographic area were as follows:
| Country: · June 30, 2025 · December 31, 2024 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| United States | $199,227 | 98.9% | $2,844,522 | 99.6% |
| China | 2,305 | 1.1% | 11,787 | 0.4% |
| Total cash | $201,532 | 100.0% | $2,856,309 | 100.0% |
For purposes of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Credit Risk and Uncertainties
The Company maintains aportion of its cash on deposits with bank and financial institution within the U.S. that at times may exceed federally-insured limits of $250,000. The Company manages this credit risk by concentrating its cash balances in high quality financial institutions and by periodically evaluating the credit quality of the primary financial institutions holding such deposits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts. At June 30, 2025, there were no balances in excess of the federally-insured limits.
The Company’s concentrations of credit risk with respect to its rent receivable is limited due to short-term payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its tenants to help further reduce credit risk.
Investment in Unconsolidated Company
The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in, and earning or loss of, investees that it does not control but over which it does exert significant influence. The Company applies the equity method by initially recording these investments at cost, as equity method investments, subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash distributions.
The Company considers whether the fair value of its equity method investment has declined below its carrying value whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that recorded value may not be recoverable. If the Company considers any decline to be other than temporary (based on various factors, including historical financial results and the overall health of the investee), then a write-down would be recorded to estimated fair value. See Note 5 for discussionof equity method investment.
The Company classifies distributions received from equity method investments using the cumulative earnings approach. Distributions received are considered returns on the investment and classified as cash inflows from operating activities. If, however, the investor’s cumulative distributions received, less distributions received in prior periods determined to be returns of investment, exceeds cumulative equity in earnings recognized, the excess is considered a return of investment and is classified as cash inflows from investing activities.
Receivable from Sale of Equity Method Investment
During the first quarter of 2025, to preserve cash, the Company entered into discussions with Lab Services MSO for the potential redemption of our investment and on February 26, 2025, the Company and Lab Services MSO entered into a Redemption and Abandonment Agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”), whereby Lab Services MSO redeemed the 40% equity interest in Lab Services MSO held by the Company for cash and the surrender of its Series B convertible preferred stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) having a carrying value of $11,000,000. The aggregate cash amount to the Company for the redemption was $1,745,000, to be paid as follows: one payment of $95,000 at the closing of the redemption and, beginning in March 2025, monthly payments of $75,000 until December 2026. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Redemption Agreement, all shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock previously issued to SCBC Holdings LLC as partial consideration for the equity interests of Laboratory Services MSO, were permanently surrendered and relinquished to the Company for no additional consideration. The difference of $2,348,695 between the carrying value of the extinguished Series B Preferred Stock, the aggregate cash amount to the Company for the redemption, net of the payables due to Lab Services MSO of $632,916, totaling $13,377,916, and the carrying value of the equity method investment of $11,029,221 was accounted for as an increase to additional paid-in capital (See Note 10 - Series B Convertible Preferred Stock Extinguished Related to Sale of Equity Method Investment). Accordingly, beginning in February 2025, the Company no longer offers laboratory services.
Receivable from sale of equity method investment is presented net of reserve for credit loss. The Company maintains a reserve for credit loss for estimated loss. The Company reviews the receivable from sale of equity method investment on a periodic basis and makes general and specific reserve when there is doubt as to the collectability of the balance. In the evaluation of Lab Services MSO’s receivable, the Company considered the age of the balance, its historical payment history and current economic trends. After unsuccessful collection efforts during the period, management has decided to write off the receivable. As a result, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a receivable in the amount of $1,650,000 was written off. At June 30, 2025, the Company established a reserve for credit loss in the amount of $1,650,000.
Per Share Data
ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per Share,” requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution. Diluted EPSreflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. The Company had $162,473 in deemed contribution during the six months ended June 30, 2025, which increases the numerator in the net loss per share calculation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, potentially dilutive common shares consisted of the common shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible preferred stock and convertible notes (using the if-converted method) and exercise of common stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method). Common stock equivalents are not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. In a period in which the Company has a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact.
The calculation of basic and diluted net loss per common share attributable to the Company common shareholders includes 150,000 of the pre-funded warrants that remained outstanding as of June 30, 2025.
The following table summarizes the securities that were excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | |
| Options to purchase common stock | 44,501 | 47,420 | 44,501 | 47,420 |
| Warrants to purchase common stock | 95,746 | 189,274 | 95,746 | 189,274 |
| Series A convertible preferred stock (*) | - | 60,000 | - | 60,000 |

| (***) | Assumed the Series C convertible preferred stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”) was converted into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $2.41 per share. |
|---|
| (****) | Assumed the Series D convertible preferred stock was converted into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $2.41 per share. |
|---|
| (*****) | Assumed the convertible notes were converted into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $1.00 per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. Assumed the convertible notes were converted into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $67.50 and $22.50 and $15.00 and $11.25 per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. |
|---|
Stock Subscription Liability
On June 4, 2025, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with an investor, whereby 141,643 shares of common stock of the Company were subscribed for at $3.53 per share. As of June 30, 2025, the Company received proceeds of $150,000. As of June 30, 2025, these shares have not yet been issued and the proceeds of $150,000 were recorded as a share subscription liability until such time as the common shares are issued.
Real Property Rental Revenue
The Company has determined that ASC 606 does not apply to rental contracts, which are within the scope of other revenue recognition accounting standards.
Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis under the guidance of ASC 842. Lease payments under tenant leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under the straight-line method and contractual lease payments are included in rent receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters. Liabilities for such contingencies are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
Segment Reporting
The segment reporting structure uses the Company’s management reporting structure as its foundation to reflect how the Company manages the businesses internally and was mainly organized by services. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company was organized into one services-oriented strategic business unit: real property rental services — which is led by our strategic business unit manager. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company was organized into two services-oriented strategic business units: real property rental services and laboratory testing services (which ended on the redemption date, February 26, 2025) — which are led by our strategic business unit managers. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company was organized into two services-oriented strategic business units: real property rental services and laboratory testing services — which were led by our strategic business unit managers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to make operating decisions, allocate resources and assess performance.
On February 9, 2023, the Company purchased 40% of Lab Services MSO. During the first quarter of 2025, to preserve cash, the Company entered into discussions with Lab Services MSO for the potential redemption of Avalon Lab’s investment and on February 26, 2025, Lab Services MSO redeemed the 40% equity interest in Lab Services MSO held by Avalon Lab. Commencing from the purchase date, February 9, 2023, through the redemption date, February 26, 2025, the Company was active in the management of Lab Services MSO.
The Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer is its CODM. The Company reports operational data to its CODM at the segment level, which he uses to evaluate performance and allocate resources based on real property operating income and loss/income from equity method investment – Lab Services MSO.
Reverse Stock Split
The Company effectuated a 1-for-15 reverse stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock on October 28, 2024. The reverse stock split did not change the par value of common stock. All references in these condensed consolidated financial statements to shares, share prices, exercise prices, and other per share information in all periods have been adjusted, on a retroactive basis, to reflect the reverse stock split.
Recent Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminated the then-current models that required separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplified the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 also introduced additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amended the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this update improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 became effective for the Company’s annual period beginning on January 1, 2024 and interim periods beginning after January 1, 2025. The Company adopted this guidance in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition were not impacted by the adoption of this ASU.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This guidance was intended to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 addressed investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to disclosure regarding rate reconciliation and income taxes paid both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption was permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), Clarifying the Effective Date. ASU 2024-03 requires public companies to disclose, in interim and reporting periods, additional information about certain expenses in the financial statements. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective basis or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on the Company’s disclosures within the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Amended MIPA, Avalon Lab acquired from the Seller,40% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Lab Services MSO (the “Purchased Interests”). The consideration paid by Avalon Lab to Seller for the Purchased Interests consisted of $20,666,667, which was comprised of (i) $9,000,000 in cash, (ii) $11,000,000 pursuant to the issuance of 11,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, stated value $1,000 (the “Series B Stated Value”), which approximated the fair value, and (iii) a $666,667 cash payment on February 9, 2024. The Series B Preferred Stock was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price per share equal to $56.70, which approximated the market price at the date of closing, or an aggregate of 194,004 shares of the Company’s common stock, which were subject to a lock-up period and restrictions on sale.
During the first quarter of 2025, to preserve cash, the Company entered into discussions with Lab Services MSO for the potential redemption of the Company’s investment and on February 26, 2025, the Company and Lab Services MSO entered into a Redemption and Abandonment Agreement, whereby Lab Services MSO redeemed the 40% equity interest in Lab Services MSO held by the Company (See Note 3 - Receivable from Sale of Equity Method Investment).
Lab Services MSO, through its subsidiaries, was engaged in providing laboratory testing services. During the period from February 9, 2023 (date of investment) through February 26, 2025 (date of sale), Avalon Lab and an unrelated company, had an ownership interest in Lab Services MSO of 40% and 60%, respectively.
In accordance with ASC 810, the Company determined that Lab Services MSO did not qualify as a variable interest entity, nor did it have a controlling financial interest over the legal entity. However, the Company determined that it does have significant influence as a result of its board representation. Therefore, the Company treats the equity investment in the condensed consolidated financial statements under the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at cost, adjusted for any excess of the Company’s share of the purchased-date fair values of the investee’s identifiable net assets over the cost of the investment (if any). At February 9, 2023 (date of investment), the excess of the Company’s share of the fair values of the investee’s identifiable net assets over the cost of the investment was approximately $19,460,000 which was attributable to intangible assets and goodwill. Thereafter, the investment was adjusted for the post purchase change in the Company’s share of the investee’s net assets and any impairment loss relating to the investment.
NOTE 5 –EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT (continued)
Intangible assets consisted of the valuation of identifiable intangible assets acquired, representing trade names and customers relationships, which were being amortized on a straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 15 years. The straight-line method of amortization represents the Company’s best estimate of the distribution of the economic value of the identifiable intangible assets.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, amortization expense of these intangible assets amounted to $166,733 which was included in loss from equity method investment — Lab Services MSO in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the period from January 1, 2025 through February 26, 2025 (date of sale) and for the six months ended June 30, 2024, amortization expense of these intangible assets amounted to $111,156 and $333,466, respectively, which was included in income (loss) from equity method investment — Lab Services MSO in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of net assets acquired in the business acquisition of Lab Services MSO incurred on February 9, 2023. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least once annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s share of Lab Services MSO’s net loss was $162,604, which was included in loss from equity method investment — Lab Services MSO in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
For the period from January 1, 2025 through February 26, 2025 (date of sale) and for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s share of Lab Services MSO’s net income was $503,833 and $111,589, respectively, which was included in income (loss) from equity method investment — Lab Services MSO in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The Company classifies distributions received from its investment on Lab Services MSO using the cumulative earnings approach. Distributions received are considered returns on the investment and classified as cash inflows from operating activities. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, distribution of earnings from the Company’s investment on Lab Services MSO amounted to $312,465. For the period from January 1, 2025 through February 26, 2025 (date of sale) and for the six months ended June 30, 2024, distribution of earnings from the Company’s investment on Lab Services MSO amounted to $0 and $473,253, respectively.

Mast Hill acquired the June 2024 Convertible Note with principal amount of $2,845,000 and paid the purchase price of $2,702,750 after an original issue discount of $142,250.

On June 5, 2024, the Company delivered such duly executed June 2024 Convertible Note, warrants and common stock to Mast Hill against delivery of the purchase price.
The Company received net cash amount of $881,210 from the June 2024 Convertible Note financing after using the proceeds to pay off all previously issued convertible notes of $1,661,540, and to pay finder’s fee of $120,000 and lender’s costs of $40,000 related to this financing.
The Company is obligated to make amortization payments in cash to Mast Hill toward the repayment of the June 2024 Convertible Note, as provided in the following table:
| Payment Date | Payment Amount |
|---|---|
| December 5, 2024 | $284,500 plus accrued interest through December 5, 2024 |

| May 5, 2025 | $569,000 plus accrued interest through May 5, 2025 |
| June 5, 2025 | The entire remaining outstanding balance of the June 2024 Convertible Note |
In connection with the issuance of the June 2024 Convertible Note, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $224,221 (including the issuance of 5,333 warrants as a finder’s fee)which was capitalized and had been amortized into interest expense over the term of the June 2024 Convertible Note.
Based upon the Company’s analysis of the criteria contained in ASC 815, the Company determined that all the warrants issued to Mast Hill and a third party as a finder’s fee meet the definition of a derivative liability, as the Company cannot avoid a net cash settlement under certain circumstances. On March 31, 2025 and June 5, 2024, management determined the probability of failing to make an amortization payment when due to be remote and as such the fair value of the 80,000 warrants with an exercise price of $7.50 exercisable until June 5, 2029, which warrant shall be cancelled and extinguished against payment of the June 2024 Convertible Note, had been estimated to be zero. Accordingly, the fair value of the 72,000 warrants with an exercise price of $9.75 exercisable until June 5, 2029 was classified as derivative liability on June 5, 2024. The fair values of the 72,000 warrants with an exercise price of $9.75 exercisable until June 5, 2029 issued on June 5, 2024 were computed using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: stock price of $10.39, volatility of 85.72%, risk-free rate of 4.31%, annual dividend yield of 0% and expected life of 5 years.
In accordance with ASC 470-20-25-2, proceeds from the sale of a debt instrument with stock purchase warrants are allocated to the two elements based on the relative fair values of the debt instrument without the warrants and of the warrants themselves at time of issuance. The portion of the proceeds allocated to the warrants are accounted for as derivative liability. The remainder of the proceeds are allocated to the debt instrument portion of the transaction.
In accordance with ASC 480-10-25-14, the Company determined that the conversion provisions contain an embedded derivative feature and the Company valued the derivative feature separately, recording debt discount and derivative liability in accordance with the provisions of the convertible debt (see Note 7). However, on June 5, 2024 and December 14, 2024, management determined the probability of failing to make an amortization payment when due to be remote and as such the fair value of the embedded conversion feature had been estimated to be zero. On December 15, 2024, Mast Hill waived all amortization payments required to be made under the June 2024 Convertible Note. On June 5, 2025, the Second Warrant was not cancelled and was retained by Mast Hill. Accordingly, the initial fair value of the Second Warrant of $621,353 was classified as derivative liability on June 5, 2025 and recorded as interest expense – amortization of debt discount.
NOTE 6 –CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE (continued)
June 2024 Convertible Note (continued)
The Company recorded a total debt discount of $1,460,343 related to the original issue discount, common shares issued and warrants issued to Mast Hill, which had been amortized over the term of the June 2024 Convertible Note.
On December 15, 2024, the Company and Mast Hill entered into that certain consent, acknowledgement, and waiver agreement, pursuant to which Mast Hill waived all amortization payments required to be made under the June 2024 Convertible Note, the Company paid a waiver fee of $150,000 to Mast Hill, and the Company issued to Mast Hill a common stock purchase warrant for the purchase of up to 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (“Pre-Funded Warrants”). The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable at issuance and until the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full and have an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants were classified as a component of permanent equity on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as they are freestanding financial instruments that are immediately exercisable, do not embody an obligation for the Company to repurchase its own shares and permit the holder to receive a fixed number of shares of common stock upon exercise. All of the shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants have been included in the weighted-average number of shares of common stock used to calculate net loss per share, basic and diluted, attributable to the Company’s common stockholders because the shares may be issued for little or no consideration, are fully vested and are exercisable after the original issuance date of the Pre-Funded Warrants. Based on the Company’s assess, this arrangement was accounted for as a modification of debt and, as such, $838,794 related to the waiver fee and Pre-Fund Warrants issued to Mast Hill were expensed.
On May 29, 2025, the Company and Mast Hill entered into that certain waiver (the “Waiver”), pursuant to which Mast Hill will retain all related dilutive issuance rights under Section 1.6(e) of the June 2024 Convertible Note, provided that any adjustment under Section 1.6(e) of the June 2024 Convertible Note shall be subject to a per share floor price equal to $1.00. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $9,076,587 as a result of the Waiver, representing the value of common stock to be issued upon conversion in excess of the common stock issuable under the original terms of the June 2024 Convertible Note.

In accordance with ASC 815-10-25, each derivative feature is initially recorded at its fair value using the Black-Scholes option valuation method and then re-value at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. However, on June 5, 2024 and December 14, 2024, management determined the probability of failing to make an amortization payment when due was remote and as such the fair value of the embedded conversion feature had been estimated to be zero.
