To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Alzamend Neuro, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (the “Company”) as of April 30, 2026 and 2025, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring losses from operations, negative cash flows from operations and is dependent on additional financing to fund current and future operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
- F-2 -
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
HASKELL & WHITE LLP
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Organization
Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (the “Company” or “Alzamend”), is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel products for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (“Alzheimer’s”), bipolar disorder (“BD”), major depressive disorder (“MDD”) and post-traumatic stress disorder (“PTSD”). With two current product candidates, Alzamend aims to bring treatments or cures to market at a reasonable cost as quickly as possible. The Company’s current pipeline consists of two novel therapeutic drug candidates: (i) a patented ionic cocrystal technology delivering a therapeutic combination of lithium, proline and salicylate, known as AL001, through two royalty-bearing exclusive worldwide licenses from the University of South Florida Research Foundation, Inc., as licensor (the “Licensor”); and (ii) a patented method using a mutant peptide sensitized cell as a cell-based therapeutic vaccine that seeks to restore the ability of a patient’s immunological system to combat Alzheimer’s, known as ALZN002, through a royalty-bearing exclusive worldwide license from the same Licensor.
The Company is devoting substantially all its efforts towards research and development of its two product candidates and raising capital. The Company has not generated any product revenue to date. The Company has financed its operations to date primarily through debt financings and through the sale of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) and its preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The Company expects to continue to incur net losses in the foreseeable future.
Reverse Stock Split
On July 10, 2024, pursuant to the authorization provided by the Company’s stockholders at its annual meeting of stockholders, the Company filed an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to effectuate a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock by a ratio of one-for-ten (the “Second Reverse Split”). The Second Reverse Split did not affect the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, preferred stock or their respective par value per share. As a result of the Second Reverse Split, each ten shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Second Reverse Split were converted into one share of Common Stock. The Second Reverse Split became effective in the State of Delaware on July 16, 2024. All share amounts in these financial statements have been updated for all periods presented to reflect the Second Reverse Split.
On May 6, 2025, pursuant to the authorization provided by the Company’s stockholders at its annual meeting of stockholders, the Company filed an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to effectuate a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock by a ratio of one-for-nine (the “Reverse Split”). The Reverse Split did not affect the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, preferred stock or their respective par value per share. As a result of the Reverse Split, each nine shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Reverse Split were converted into one share of Common Stock. The Reverse Split became effective in the State of Delaware on May 12, 2025. All share amounts in these financial statements have been updated for all periods presented to reflect the Reverse Split.
2. LIQUIDITY, GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of April 30, 2026, the Company had cash of $711,000 and an accumulated deficit of $67.3 million. For the year ended April 30, 2026, the Company had a net loss of $8.8 million and cash used in operating activities of $8.1 million. The Company had cash as of April 30, 2025, totaling $3.9 million and accumulated deficit of $58.5 million. In the past, the Company has financed its operations principally through issuances of equity and debt instruments.
During the year ended April 30, 2026, the Company sold an aggregate of 451,298 shares of Common Stock pursuant to an at-the-market offering for proceeds of $795,000 (see Note 9).
The Company expects to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future and needs to raise additional capital until it is able to generate revenues from operations sufficient to fund its development and commercial operations during the twelve-month period subsequent to the issuance of the financial statements included in this Annual Report. These factors create substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need to raise additional funds. The Company plans to seek additional funding through public equity, private equity and debt financings. The terms of any additional financing may adversely affect the holdings or rights of the Company’s stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain funding, it could be required to delay, reduce or eliminate research and development programs and planned clinical trials which could adversely affect the Company’s business operations.
- F-8 -
On March 20, 2026, the Company was notified bythe staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”)that that its stockholders’ equity as reported in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2026 (the “Form 10-Q”), did not satisfy the continued listing requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) for the Nasdaq Capital Market, which requires that a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $2.5 million. As reported on its Form 10-Q, the Company’s stockholders’ equity as of January 31, 2026 was approximately $2.2 million. As reported in this Annual Report, the Company’s stockholders’ equity as of April 30, 2026 was approximately $0.7 million.
In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company was provided an initial period of 45 calendar days, or until May 4, 2026, to submit a plan to regain compliance. On May 4, 2026, the Company submitted a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) to Nasdaq. On May 19, 2026, Nasdaq granted the Company an extension of time to regain compliance on or before September 16, 2026.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of 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. The Company’s critical accounting policies that involve significant judgment and estimates include research and development, stock-based compensation, warrant valuation, and valuation of deferred income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of April 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company hadno cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820,Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 assumptions: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities including liabilities resulting from imbedded derivatives associated with certain warrants to purchase common stock.
The fair values of warrants issued in connection with equity or debt issuance are determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, a “Level 3” fair value measurement, based on the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock, volatility based on the historical volatility data of similar companies, considering the industry, products and market capitalization of such other entities, the expected life based on the remaining contractual term of the conversion option and warrants and the risk free interest rate based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity equivalent to the warrants’ contractual life.
- F-9 -
Income Taxes
The Company determines its income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are calculated and recorded based upon the future tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future periods for differences between the financial statements carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. Generally, deferred income taxes are classified as current or non-current in accordance with the classification of the related asset or liability. Those not related to an asset or a liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided for significant deferred income tax assets when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of April 30, 2026, the Company had fully reserved the net deferred income tax assets by taking a full valuation allowance against these assets.
The Company recognizes tax liabilities by prescribing a minimum probability threshold that a tax position must meet before a financial statement benefit is recognized and also provides guidance on de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The minimum threshold is defined as a tax position that is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amount recorded, such differences impact income tax expense in the period in which such determination is made. Interest and penalties, if any, related to accrued liabilities for potential tax assessments are included in income tax expense. U.S. GAAP also requires management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Company and recognize a liability if the Company has taken uncertain tax positions that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by applicable taxing authorities. Management of the Company has evaluated tax positions taken by the Company and has concluded that as of April 30, 2026, there were no uncertain tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, that would require recognition of a liability that would require disclosure in the financial statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period and accounts for forfeitures as they occur. The Company’s stock-based compensation costs are based upon the grant date fair value of options estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. To the extent any stock option grants are made subject to the achievement of a performance-based milestone, management evaluates when the achievement of any such performance-based milestone is probable based on the satisfaction of the performance conditions as of the reporting date.
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period and accounts for forfeitures as they occur. The Company’s stock-based compensation for restricted stock is based upon the estimated fair value of the Common Stock on the date of grant.
The Black-Scholes option pricing model utilizes inputs which are highly subjective assumptions and generally requires significant judgment. Certain of such assumptions involve inherent uncertainties and the application of significant judgment. As a result, if factors or expected outcomes change and the Company uses significantly different assumptions or estimates, the Company’s stock-based compensation could be materially different.
Warrants
The Company accounts for stock warrants as either equity instruments, derivative liabilities, or liabilities in accordance with ASC 480,Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity(“ASC 480”) and ASC 815,Derivatives and Hedging(“ASC 815”), depending on the specific terms of the warrant agreement.
During the year ended April 30, 2026, based on the terms of the Company’s warrant agreements, the Company accounted for the warrants as equity instruments as the warrants were indexed to the Common Stock, required settlement in shares and would be classified as equity under ASC 815.
Loss per Common Share
The Company utilizes FASB ASC Topic No. 260,Earnings per Share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is computed similarly to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the additional common shares had been issued and if such common shares were dilutive. Diluted loss per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if options, restricted stock units and warrants were to be exercised or converted or otherwise resulted in the issuance of Common Stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.
- F-10 -
Since the effects of outstanding options, restricted stock units and warrants are anti-dilutive in the periods presented, shares of Common Stock underlying these instruments have been excluded from the computation of loss per common share.
The following sets forth the number of shares of Common Stock underlying outstanding options and warrants that have been excluded from the computation of loss per common share:

The Company analyzes the terms of its preferred stock using ASC Topic No. 480,Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, to determine whether the Company’s preferred stock should be classified as a liability or equity, and if classified as equity, permanent or temporary. Common criteria the Company considers are redemption provisions, conversion options, mandatory fixed dividends, discretionary dividends based on earning, voting rights and collateral requirements.
Segment Reporting
In fiscal year 2025, the Company adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The Company operates as a single operating and reportable segment, which reflects the manner in which the Chief Operating Decision Maker, who is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, manages the business and allocates resources. The Company is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel products for the treatment of Alzheimer’s, BD, MDD and PTSD, with key operational decisions based on cash availability, development milestones, and return on investment associated with future manufacturing and commercialization opportunities.
Recent Accounting Standards
On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires entities to disclose specific rate reconciliations, amount of income taxes separated by federal and individual jurisdiction, and the amount of income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (benefit) disaggregated between federal, state, and foreign. The Company adopted this for its fiscal year beginning May 1, 2025, prospectively. Adoption impacted footnote disclosures only, with no material effect on financial position or results of operations.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, to require disaggregated disclosure of certain income statement expense line items, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, and depreciation and amortization. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that the Company’s deferred tax assets will be realized. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making such assessments. Given historical generation of and expected future taxable losses, management determined it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Therefore, a full valuation allowance was maintained, as of the years ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, of $15,395,854 and $15,247,397, respectively.
At April 30, 2026, the Company maintained U.S. Federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryovers of approximately $55.3 million and $23.8 million, respectively. Federal and state NOLs begin to expire in various years depending on relevant jurisdiction. In accordance with Internal Revenue Code §382 (“IRC §382”), the future deductibility of the Company’s NOL’s may be subject to an annual limitation in the event of a change in control as defined by applicable regulations. The Company has yet to complete a formal study to confirm NOL’s are not limited in utilization per IRC §382 and may reduce applicable deferred tax assets upon completion of such a study, in future periods.
The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. The Company hadno uncertain tax positions as of April 30, 2026.
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in the provision for income taxes. As of April 30, 2026, no interest or penalties have been recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.
The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and various U.S. state jurisdictions. All tax years remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and relevant state authorities.
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBB Act”) was enacted on July 4, 2025, in the United States. The OBBB Act included several significant provisions, including re-establishing a 100% bonus depreciation deduction, re-establishing rules in calculating business interest expense limitations pursuant to Internal Revenue Code §163(j), changing the calculation of international tax inclusions, and removing the capitalization requirements for domestic research or experimental expenditures paid or incurred in tax years beginning after December 31, 2024. Management has considered applicable tax impacts of the OBBB Act within the financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026.
6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
2016 Stock Incentive Plan
On April 30, 2016, the Company’s stockholders approved the Company’s 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). The 2016 Plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of 9,259 shares of Common Stock to be offered to the Company’s directors, officers, employees, and consultants. On March 1, 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved an additional 5,556 shares to be available for issuance under the 2016 Plan. Options granted under the 2016 Plan have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair value of the underlying Common Stock at the date of grant and become exercisable based on a vesting schedule determined at the date of grant. The options expire between five and 10 years from the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted under the 2016 Plan are subject to a vesting period determined at the date of grant.
2021 Stock Incentive Plan
In February 2021, the Company’s stockholders approved the Company’s 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of 7,407 shares of Common Stock to be offered to the Company’s directors, officers, employees, and consultants. Options granted under the 2021 Plan have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair value of the underlying Common Stock at the date of grant and become exercisable based on a vesting schedule determined at the date of grant.

- F-13 -
2025 Stock Incentive Plan
In April 2026, the Company’s stockholders approved, the Company’s 2025 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”). The 2025 Plan authorizes the grant to eligible individuals of (1) stock options (incentive and non-statutory), (2) restricted stock, (3) stock appreciation rights, or SARs, (4) restricted stock units, and (5) other stock-based compensation.
Stock Subject to the 2025 Plan. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2025 Plan is 1,600,000 shares, which number will be increased to the extent that compensation granted under the 2025 Plan is forfeited, expires or is settled for cash (except as otherwise provided in the 2025 Plan). Substitute awards (awards made or shares issued by the Company in assumption of, or in substitution or exchange for, awards previously granted, or the right or obligation to make future awards, in each case by a company that the Company acquires or any subsidiary of the Company or with which the Company or any subsidiary combines) will not reduce the shares authorized for grant under the 2025 Plan, nor will shares subject to a substitute award be added to the shares available for issuance or transfer under the 2025 Plan.
Stock Options. All options that the Company grants are granted at the per share fair value on the grant date. Vesting of options differs based on the terms of each option. The Company has valued the options at their date of grant utilizing the Black Scholes option pricing model. As of the date of issuance of these options, there was not an active public market for the Company’s shares. Accordingly, the fair value of the underlying options was determined based on the historical volatility data of similar companies, considering the industry, products and market capitalization of such other entities. The risk-free interest rate used in the calculations is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent term approximating the expected life of the options as calculated using the simplified method. The expected life of the options used was based on the contractual life of the option granted. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense because the Company settles these obligations by issuing shares of Common Stock from its authorized shares instead of settling such obligations with cash payments.
A summary of stock option activity for the year ended April 30, 2026, is presented below:
| Schedule of share-based payment arrangement, option, activity | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outstanding Options | ||||||
| Shares Available for Grant · Number of Shares · Weighted Average Exercise Price · Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (years) · Aggregate Intrinsic Value | ||||||

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value (i.e., the difference between the estimated fair value on the respective date and the exercise price, times the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options.
Stock Options Granted to Employees, Directors and Consultants
The estimated fair value of stock options granted to employees, directors and consultants during the year ended April 30, 2026 were calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following assumptions:
| Expected term (in years) | 6.25 |
|---|---|
| Volatility | 93.4% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.4% |
| Dividend yield | 0.0% |
- F-14 -
*Expected Term:*The expected term represents the period that the options granted are expected to be outstanding and is determined using the simplified method (based on the mid-point between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term).
*Expected Volatility:*The Company uses an average historical stock price volatility of comparable public companies within the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry that were deemed to be representative of future stock price trends as the Company only has a limited trading history for its common stock. The Company will continue to apply this process until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of its own stock price becomes available.
*Risk-Free Interest Rate:*The Company based the risk-free interest rate over the expected term of the options based on the constant maturity rate of U.S. Treasury securities with similar maturities as of the date of the grant.
*Expected Dividend:*The Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying any dividends in the near future. Therefore, the expected dividend yield was zero.
There wereno stock options granted during the year ended April 30, 2025.
Performance Contingent Stock Options Granted to Employee
On November 26, 2019, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) granted 3,148 performance and market contingent awards to certain key employees and a director. These grants were made outside of the Plan. These awards have an exercise price of $2,025.00 per share. These awards have multiple separate market triggers for vesting based upon either (i) the successful achievement of stepped target closing prices on a national securities exchange for 90 consecutive trading days later than 180 days after the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) for its Common Stock, or (ii) stepped target prices for a change in control transaction. The target prices ranged from $13,500 per share to $54,000 per share. In the event any of the stock price milestones are not achieved within three years, the unvested portion of the performance options will be reduced by 25%.
On November 22, 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board modified the performance criteria for these awards. The target price range is now $13,500 per share to $27,000 per share. Additionally, if the stock price milestones are now not achieved by November 27, 2026, as opposed to within three years, the unvested portion of the portion of the performance options will be reduced by 25%. Due to the significant risks and uncertainties associated with achieving the market-contingent awards, as of April 30, 2026, the Company’s management believes that the achievement of the requisite performance conditions is not probable and, as a result, no compensation cost has been recognized for these awards.
On November 29, 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board granted 1,481 performance-based stock option to the Chief Executive Officer at an exercise price of $1,579.50 per share, of which 50% vest upon the completion and announcement of topline data from the Company’s Phase II clinical trial of AL001 within three years from grant date and the remaining 50% vest upon the completion and announcement of topline data from the Company’s Phase II clinical trial of ALZN002 within four years from the grant date. During the year ended April 30, 2023, the Company believed that it was probable that the performance condition of the completion and announcement of topline data from the Company’s Phase II clinical trial of AL001 would be achieved and had recognized the related stock-based compensation. As of April 30, 2026, the Company believed that the achievement of the second performance condition was not probable and, as a result, no compensation cost has been recognized related to Phase I/IIA of ALZN002.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
The Company’s results of operations include expenses relating to stock-based compensation for the years ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, were comprised of the following:

- F-15 -
As of April 30, 2026, total unamortized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested employee and non-employee awards that are expected to vest was $618,000. The weighted-average period over which such stock-based compensation expense will be recognized is approximately 2.0 years.

|---|---|
| Expected term (in years) | 5.00 |
| Volatility | 91.0% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.03% |
| Dividend yield | 0.0% |
