ADIAL PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Adial Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Adial” or the “Company”) was converted from a limited liability company formed on November 23, 2010 in the Commonwealth of Virginia under the name Adial Pharmaceuticals, LLC, to a corporation and reincorporated in Delaware on October 5, 2017. Adial is presently engaged in the development of medications for the treatment or prevention of addictions and related disorders.

Adial’s wholly owned subsidiary, Purnovate, Inc. (“Purnovate”), was formed on January 26, 2021 to acquire Purnovate, LLC, an entity formed in December of 2019. Purnovate was a drug development company with a platform focused on developing drug candidates for non-opioid pain reduction and other diseases and disorders potentially targeted with adenosine analogs that are selective, potent, stable, and soluble. In 2023, Adial sold the Purnovate assets and business to Adovate, LLC (“Adovate”), a company formed and majority owned by a then director of the Company and CEO of Purnovate. In January 2025, Adial’s board of directors approved the merger of Purnovate into Adial. This merger was completed during the third quarter of 2025 and there is no effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

2 — GOING CONCERN AND OTHER UNCERTAINTIES

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company is in a development stage and has incurred losses each year since inception. Based on the current development plans for AD04 in both the U.S. and international markets and other operating requirements, the Company does not believe that the existing cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months following the filing of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. During 2025, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $5.9 million from the exercise of warrants and equity issuances. However, the Company will require additional capital to continue operations and development of AD04. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Other Uncertainties

Generally, the industry in which the Company operates subjects the Company to a number of other risks and uncertainties that can affect its operating results and financial condition. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the timing, costs and results of clinical trials and other development activities versus expectations; the ability to obtain regulatory approval to market product candidates; the ability to manufacture products successfully; competition from products sold or being developed by other companies; the price of, reimbursement of, and demand for, Company products once approved; the ability to negotiate favorable licensing or other manufacturing and marketing agreements for its products.

3 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires Company management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of these consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results might differ from these estimates.

Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include accruals associated with third party providers supporting clinical trials and income tax asset realization.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results of operations for the periods presented. The interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the 2024 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2025. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of the Company and its subsidiary in conformity with GAAP. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share are computed based on the weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock, which are all voting shares. Diluted net loss per share is computed giving effect to all proportional shares of common stock, including stock options, restricted stock, and warrants to the extent dilutive. Basic net loss per share was the same as diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, as the inclusion of all potential common shares outstanding would have an anti-dilutive effect.

The total potentially dilutive common shares that were excluded for the nine months periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At times, the Company’s cash balances may exceed the current insured amounts under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At September 30, 2025, the Company did not exceed FDIC insurance limits in its insured bank accounts but held approximately $4.4 million in non-FDIC insured cash equivalent accounts. Included in cash equivalents are money market investments with original maturity dates when purchased less than ninety days and are carried at fair value. Unrealized gain or loss are included in the interest income and are immaterial to the financial statements. At December 31, 2024, the Company did not exceed FDIC insurance limits in its insured bank accounts but held approximately $3.6 million in non-FDIC insured cash equivalent accounts.

Equity Method Investments

The Company utilizes the equity method to account for investments when it possesses the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial decisions of the investee.

Equity method investments are measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus the Company’s proportionate share of the equity method investee’s operating income or loss and plus or minus the Company’s proportionate share of dilution to buyers of newly issued equity. The proportionate share of the income or loss from equity method investments is recognized on a one quarter lag.

Currently, the Company is not obligated to make additional capital contributions for its equity method investments and therefore only records losses up to the amount of its total investment, inclusive of any other investments in and loans to the investee, which are not accounted for as equity method investments.

Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, (“ASC 820”) defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The methodology establishes consistency and comparability by providing a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques into three broad levels, which are described below:

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable approximate their carrying value due to their short-term maturities.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred and include supplies and other direct trial expenses such as fees due to contract research organizations, consultants which support the Company’s research and development endeavors, the acquisition of technology rights without an alternative use, and compensation and benefits of clinical research and development personnel. Certain research and development costs, in particular fees to contract research organizations (“CROs”), are structured with milestone payments due on the occurrence of certain key events. Where such milestone payments are greater than those earned through the provision of such services, the Company recognizes a prepaid asset which is recorded as expense; where fees earned are greater than milestone payments, an accrued expense liability is recorded as expense.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of option awards based on the grant date fair value of the awards. That cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period during which the awardee was required to provide service in exchange for the entire award. The fair value of options is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, based on key assumptions such as the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, the risk-free rate of return, and expected term of the options. The Company’s estimates of these assumptions are primarily based on historical data, peer company data, government data, and the judgment of management regarding future trends.

Common shares issued are valued based on the fair value of the Company’s common shares as determined by the market closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of the commitment to make the issuance.

Segment Information

The Company operates asone operating segment with a focus on drug development for addiction and related disorders. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, as its chief operating decision maker (CODM), manages and allocates resources to the operations of the Company’s on a consolidated basis. The CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and key components and processes of the Company’s operations are managed centrally. Segment asset information is not used by the CODM to allocate resources. This enables the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to assess its overall level of available resources and determine how best to deploy these resources across research and development projects in line with the Company’s long-term company-wide strategic goals.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This update enhances the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures, particularly in the rate reconciliation table and disclosures about income taxes paid. The guidance also eliminates certain existing requirements related to uncertain tax positions and unrecognized deferred tax liabilities. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect the ASU 2023-09 will have on its financial statement disclosures.

In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03,Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This update would require a public entity to disclose information about purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depletion for each income statement line item that contains those expenses. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated condensed financial statements.** **

4 — EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS

On June 30, 2023, Adovate issued to the Company a 19.9% equity stake in Adovate as part of consideration owed upon the exercise of Adovate’s option to purchase the business and assets of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Purnovate, Inc. Under the terms of the final asset purchase agreement, Adovate was obligated to protect the Company against dilution by issuing additional equity to the Company in Adovate as Adovate equity was sold to maintain the Company’s 15% equity stake until such time as Adovate had raised $4 million through equity sales, at which time the Company’s equity stake would be adjusted to equal to 15%. The Company determined the fair value of this equity to be $1,727,897 at time of issue, based on the price of cash sales by Adovate of the same class of equity to third parties around the same time as the date of issue.

On January 30, 2024, the Company acknowledged that Adovate had raised $4 million and the Company’s equity in Adovate was reduced to equal 15% of Adovate’s equity then outstanding. As a result, the Company recorded a reduction on the value of its equity stake of $283,268.

In accordance with ASC 810, the Company determined that Adovate does not qualify as a variable interest entity, nor does the Company have a controlling financial interest in Adovate. The Company has influence over, but does not control Adovate through its equity interest in Adovate. The Company has determined that the equity it owns is in-substance common stock. The Company is not the primary beneficiary as it does not have the power to direct the activities of Adovate that most significantly impact Adovate’s economic performance. Accordingly, the Company does not consolidate the financial statements of Adovate with those of the Company.

The Company recorded the initial investment in Adovate of $1,727,897 in “Equity method investments” on its consolidated balance sheet. Due to the timing and availability of Adovate’s financial information, the Company is recording its proportionate share of losses from Adovate on a one quarter lag basis.

Adovate’s summary balance sheet information as of June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 is below:

Results for Adovate’s operations in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are summarized below:

The Company held a weighted average of 11.2% of Adovate’s equity during the nine months ended June 30, 2025. The Company recognized an expense of $338,740, classified as other income (expense), against the carrying amount of the equity method investment, representing the Company’s portion of Adovate operating loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and $76,920 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. At September 30, 2025, the Company held 10.4% of Adovate’s outstanding equity.

Activity recorded for the Company’s equity method investment in Adovate during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is summarized in the following table:

At September 30, 2025, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss through its equity method investment is limited to the value of its equity.

Consideration for the sale of the assets of Purnovate, Inc. to Adovate also included contingent payments based on the occurrence of certain milestone events and a contingent royalty on future sales. The Company recognized $150,000 in other income for a milestone achieved and payment received during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Standby Equity Purchase Agreement

On December 13, 2024, the existing Equity Purchase Agreement that the Company entered into with Alumni Capital, LLC (“Alumni”) on May 31, 2023 was cancelled by mutual agreement. Simultaneously, the Company and Alumni Capital entered into a new Equity Purchase Agreement (the “New SEPA”) on substantially the same terms, but with an initial right to sell Alumni up to $5,000,000 in newly issued shares and an end date of the commitment period of December 31, 2026. Upon the Company’s entry into and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the New SEPA,68,807 shares of common stock were issued to Alumni as consideration for its irrevocable commitment to purchase shares of common stock, pursuant to the New SEPA. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, no shares were sold under the terms of the New SEPA. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025,141,667 shares had been sold under the terms of the New SEPA for total proceeds of $93,044 leaving a remaining $4.9 million to be sold under the New SEPA.

At-the-market Offering Agreement

On August 1, 2025, the Company, entered into a sales agreement (the “ATM”) with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“AGP”) providing for the sale by the Company of its shares of common stock, from time to time, through the ATM, with certain limitations on the amount of common stock that may be offered and sold by the Company. The aggregate market value of the shares of common stock eligible for sale under the ATM prospectus supplement filed in connection with the ATM was $4,983,000 which is based on the limitations of such offerings under SEC regulations. The ATM provides that the Company will pay AGP commissions for its services in acting as agent in the sale of shares of common stock pursuant to the ATM. AGP will be entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock pursuant to the ATM.

On October 9, 2017, the Company adopted the Adial Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Equity Incentive Plan”); which became effective on July 31, 2018. Under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company may grant equity-based awards to individuals who are employees, officers, directors, or consultants of the Company. Options issued under the Plan will generally expire ten years from the date of grant and vest over a three-year period. At September 30, 2025, the Company had 3,598,054 shares issuable under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan.

On August 1, 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for grant under the plan from 2,000,000 to 5,000,000.

Stock Options

The following table provides the stock option activity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025:

At September 30, 2025, the total intrinsic value of the outstanding options waszero dollars.

The Company used the Black Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of the options issued, using the following key assumptions for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $0.59 and $1.14, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, there was $663,842 of total time-based unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock options. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

The components of stock-based compensation expense included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are as follows:

Stock Warrants

The following table provides the activity in warrants for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

On May 2, 2025, the Company entered into a warrant inducement agreement (the “Inducement Agreement”) with an existing healthcare-focused institutional investor of the Company for the immediate exercise of existing Series B Warrants to purchase 1,418,440 shares of the Company’s common stock and Series C Warrants, and together with the Series B Warrants (the “Existing Warrants”) to purchase 2,300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a reduced exercise price of $0.74 in exchange for (i) Series B-1 warrants to purchase up to 2,482,270 shares of common stock (the “Series B-1 Warrants”), and (ii) Series C-1 Warrants to purchase up to 4,025,000 shares of common stock (the “Series C-1 Warrants”), and together with the Series B-1 Warrants, (the “New Warrants”). The New Warrants have an exercise price of $0.74 and will be exercisable upon stockholder approval. The Series B-1 Warrants expire five years from the date of such approval and the Series C-1 Warrants expire eighteen months from the date of such approval. The Company’s stockholders have approved the exercise of the Series B-1 and C-1 warrants as of August 1, 2025.

In addition, the Company issued to a former placement agent’s designees as tail fee warrants, Placement Agent Series B-1 Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Placement Agent Series C-1 Common Stock Purchase Warrants, to purchase up to an aggregate of 223,106 shares of common stock, which tail fee warrants have the same terms as the New Warrants, except that they have an exercise price of $0.925 per share.

The Inducement Agreement, which resulted in the lowering of the exercise price of the Existing Warrants and the issuance of the New Warrants, is considered a modification of the Existing Warrants under the guidance ASC 815-40. The modification is consistent with the equity issuance classification under that guidance as the reason for the modification was to induce the holders of the Existing Warrants to cash exercise their warrants, which raised equity capital and generated net proceeds of approximately $2.2 million. The Company incurred approximately $0.5 million as equity issuance costs associated with the inducement agreement. As the Existing Warrants and the New Warrants were classified as equity instruments before and after the exchange, and as the exchange is directly attributable to an equity offering, the Company recognized the effect of the modification of approximately $3.0 million as additional equity issuance cost.

On June 17, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment agreement (the “Warrant Amendment”) with the holder of certain existing warrants to purchase common stock (the “Holder”), consisting of (i) Series B-1 warrants to purchase up to 2,482,270 shares of common stock and (ii) Series C-1 warrants to purchase up to 4,025,000 shares of common stock and, together with the Series B-1 Warrants, the “Prior Warrants”). Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, the Company agreed (i) to amend the Prior Warrants to reduce the exercise price of the Prior Warrants to $0.35 per share, (ii) to amend the Prior Warrants to modify the termination date thereof to (x) June 17, 2030 for the Series B-1 Warrants and (y) December 17, 2026 for the Series C-1 Warrants, and (iii) to amend that certain warrant inducement agreement (the “Inducement Agreement”), dated May 2, 2025, by and between the Company and the Holder, to provide that the Company would hold a special meeting of stockholders at the earliest practicable date, but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Inducement Agreement). As the Warrant Amendment was classified as equity instruments before and after the Warrant Amendment, and as the Warrant Amendment is directly attributable to an equity offering, the Company recognized the effect of the Warrant Amendment of approximately $197,000 as additional equity issuance cost.

On June 18, 2025, the Company consummated a best efforts public offering (the “Offering”) of (i)5,341,200 shares of the Company’s common stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,758,800 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares”), (iii) Series D warrants (the “Series D Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 11,100,000 shares of common stock (the “Series D Warrant Shares”), (iv) Series E warrants (the “Series E Warrants” and, together with the Series D Warrants, the “Common Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,325,000 shares of common stock (the “Series E Warrant Shares” and, together with the Series D Warrant Shares, the “Common Warrant Shares”). Each Share or Pre-Funded Warrant was sold together with one Series D Warrant and one Series E Warrant. The combined public offering price for each Share and accompanying Common Warrants was $0.3251. The combined public offering price for each Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Common Warrants was $0.3241. The aggregate net proceeds from the Offering was approximately $3.0 million. The Company incurred approximately $0.6 million as equity issuance costs associated with the Offering.

In addition, the Company issued a former placement agent’s designees tail fee warrants, Series D Warrants, to purchase up to an aggregate of 106,110 shares of common stock, which tail fee warrants have the same terms as the Series D Warrants, except that they have an exercise price of $0.4375 per share.

The Common Warrants have an exercise price of $0.35 per Common Warrant Share and will be exercisable beginning on the effective date of shareholder approval of the issuance of the Common Warrant Shares. The Series D Warrants will expire on the 5-year anniversary of the shareholder approval and the Series E Warrants will expire on the 18-month anniversary of the shareholder approval. The Company’s stockholders have approved the Series D and E warrants as of August 1, 2025. The Company evaluated the pre-funded warrants and the common warrant shares under ASC480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and ASC815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined the warrants meet the requirements to be classified in permanent equity. The fair value of the Common Warrants approximated $3.3 million and was recognized as additional-paid-in capital during the three months ended June 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025 all of the pre-funded warrants have been exercised.

7 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

License with University of Virginia Patent Foundation

In January 2011, the Company entered into an exclusive, worldwide license agreement with the University of Virginia Patent Foundation, dba UVA Licensing and Ventures Group (“UVA LVG”) for rights to make, use or sell licensed products in the United States based upon the ten separate patents and patent applications made and held by UVA LVG.

As consideration for the rights granted in the UVA LVG License, the Company is obligated to pay UVA LVG yearly license fees and milestone payments, as well as a royalty based on net sales of products covered by the patent-related rights. More specifically, the Company paid UVA LVG a license issue fee and is obligated to pay UVA LVG (i) annual minimum royalties of $40,000 commencing in 2017; (ii) a $20,000 milestone payments upon dosing the first patient under a Phase 3 human clinical trial of a licensed product, $155,000 upon the earlier of the completion of a Phase 3 trial of a licensed product, partnering of a licensed product, or sale of the Company, $275,000 upon acceptance of a New Drug Application by the FDA, and $1,000,000 upon approval for sale of AD04 in the U.S., Europe or Japan; as well as (iii) royalties equal to a 2% and 1% of net sales of licensed products in countries in which a valid patent exists or does not exist, respectively, with royalties paid quarterly.
