Previous report

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized grant income of $932,996 as compared to $1,789,496 for the comparable year last year. We feel grant income may potentially be a significant portion of our other income in fiscal year 2024 based on: the transition and commencement to clinical trial implementation phase (“UH3”) in 2021. Approximately $3.5 million for the second phase of the grant was awarded on September 1, 2021 under award number UG3DA047925 awarded by National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), part of National Institutes of Health (NIH). The UH3 phase will allow the Company to be eligible for additional funding for up to 3 years to carry out the clinical stage studies . On February 22, 2024, the Company’s subsidiary BioCorRx Pharmaceuticals Inc. was awarded a three-year grant of $11,029,977 from the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute on Drug Abuse, ("NIDA"). Any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of government subsidies and economic incentives because of policy changes, fiscal tightening or other reasons may result in diminished revenues from government sources and diminished demand for our products. This could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.
