ABOUT THIS ANNUAL REPORT
All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Indaptus Therapeutics”, “Indaptus”, “the Company” and “our company”, in this Annual Report on Form 10- K, or our Annual Report, are to Indaptus Therapeutics, Inc. (formerly Intec Parent, Inc.) and, where appropriate, its consolidated subsidiaries, Intec Pharma Ltd. and Decoy Biosystems, Inc. All references to “common stock” and “share capital” refer to common stock and share capital of Indaptus. Our historical results do not necessarily indicate our expected results for any future periods. Any discrepancies in any table between totals and sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding. Unless otherwise indicated, or the context otherwise requires, references in this Annual Report to financial and operational data for a particular year refer to the fiscal year of our Company ended December 31 of that year.
All information in this Annual Report relating to shares or price per share reflects the 1-for-28 reverse stock split effected by us on June 26, 2025 which began trading on a post-split basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market on June 27, 2025.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
On December 22, 2025, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with David E. Lazar, pursuant to which he agreed to purchase from the Company 300,000 shares of Series AA Preferred Stock and 700,000 shares of Series AAA Preferred Stock (the “Series AAA Preferred Stock” and, together with the Series AA Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price of $6.00 per share of Preferred Stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $6.0 million, subject to the terms and conditions thereunder, or the Investment Transaction. The offering closed on December 23, 2025. As of the date of this Annual Report, Mr. Lazar is the beneficial owner of approximately 96.4% of common stock of the Company on an as-converted and fully-diluted basis. As part of the Investment Transaction, the Company plans to pursue a strategic transaction involving either an investment in or acquisition of an operating business, or the Target Company, referred to as the “Post-Investment Transaction.” Should such a transaction be approved and successfully finalized, the Company anticipates that combining with a Target Company will create future growth opportunities for both the Company and its stockholders. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating its strategic options for a Post-Investment Transaction. For further information, see*“Recent Developments – Lazar Investment Transaction”*.
Market data and certain industry data and forecasts used throughout this Annual Report were obtained from market research databases, consultant surveys commissioned by us, publicly available information, reports of governmental agencies and industry publications and surveys. Industry surveys, publications, consultant surveys commissioned by us and forecasts generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable. We have relied on certain data from third-party sources, including internal surveys, industry forecasts and market research, which we believe to be reliable based on our management’s knowledge of the industry. Statements as to our market position are based on the most currently available data. While we are not aware of any misstatements regarding the industry data presented in this Annual Report, our estimates involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed under Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report contains, and management may make, certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terms such as “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “anticipate,” “could,” “might,” “seek,” “target,” “will,” “project,” “forecast,” “continue” or their negatives or variations of these words or other comparable words. These statements include, without limitation, our statements about: the Investment Transaction; our ability to successfully pursue our business strategy, including identifying and completing a Post-Investment Transaction; the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, including the financial impact of the Investment Transaction and related transactions and matters, our product candidates’ development; the anticipated effects of our product candidates; the market potential and treatment potential of our product candidates; our commercialization, marketing and manufacturing capabilities and strategy; our expectations about the willingness of healthcare professionals to use our product candidates; our general business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations; our research and development activities and costs; our future results of operations and condition; the sufficiency of our cash and cash equivalents to fund our ongoing activities; the impact of current macroeconomic conditions, geopolitical events and ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East and the war between Russia and Ukraine on our operations, ability to access capital, and liquidity; and any impact of a pandemic, epidemic or other future health crisis on our business.
The forward-looking statements in this Annual Report are only predictions and are based largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described under the sections in this Annual Report entitled “Summary Risk Factors,” Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and Part II. Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Annual Report. You should also refer to our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for future periods and current reports on Form 8-K as we file them with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and to other materials we may furnish to the public from time to time through SEC filings.
Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond our control, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties.
Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise. We intend the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
Summary Risk Factors
The principal factors and uncertainties that make investing in our common stock risky, include, among others:
| ● | Our stockholders will experience significant dilution as a result of the issuance of shares of our common stock upon future conversion of the Preferred Stock. |
|---|---|
| ● | We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the Investment Transaction if we are not able to identify and/or pursue a Post-Investment Transaction. |
| ● | Our Board and management team has significantly changed in connection with the Investment Transaction and may change again if we consummate a Post-Investment Transaction. |
| ● | As a result of an increase in the number of authorized common stock, the availability of additional authorized shares may result in greater dilution to our stockholders and/or affect the market price of our common stock. |
| ● | Our stockholders will have significantly reduced ownership and voting power as a result of any conversion of the shares Preferred Stock. |
| ● | Mr. Lazar has significant control and influence over our Company and corporate matters. |
| ● | The proposed Reverse Stock Split, if effected, may not increase our stock price, and could lead to a decrease in our overall market capitalization. |
| ● | The proposed Reverse Stock Split, if effected, may decrease the liquidity of our common stock. |
| ● | The proposed Reverse Stock Split, if effected, may result in some stockholders owning “odd lots” that may be more difficult to sell or require greater transaction costs per share to sell. |
| ● | The proposed Reverse Stock Split, if effected, will result in a significant increase in our authorized common stock and may result in future dilution to our stockholders. |
| ● | We are a clinical-stage company with a limited operating history. We are not currently profitable, do not expect to become profitable in the near future and may never become profitable. |
| ● | We have identified conditions and events that raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as going concern. |
| ● | Given our lack of current cash flow, we will need to raise additional capital. If we are unable to raise a sufficient amount of capital when needed on acceptable terms or at all, we may be forced to delay, limit or eliminate some or all of our research programs, product development activities and commercialization efforts. |
| ● | Raising additional capital would cause dilution to our existing shareholders and may restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights to our technologies or product candidates. |
|---|---|
| ● | Clinical and preclinical development involves lengthy and expensive processes with uncertain outcomes. Any difficulties or delays in the commencement or completion, or the termination or suspension, of our current or planned clinical trials could result in increased costs to us, delay or limit our ability to generate revenue or adversely affect our commercial prospects. |
| ● | We may expend our limited resources to pursue a limited number of research programs, product candidates and specific indications and fail to capitalize on product candidates or indications that may be more profitable or for which there is a greater likelihood of success. |
| ● | Our product candidates may cause undesirable side effects that could delay or prevent their regulatory approval or commercialization or have other significant adverse implications on our business, financial condition and results of operations. |
| ● | We may not be able to adequately protect our proprietary or licensed technology in the marketplace. |
| ● | We may not be successful in obtaining or maintaining necessary rights to our product candidates through acquisitions and in-licenses. |
| ● | We are subject to various U.S. federal, state and foreign healthcare laws and regulations, which could increase compliance costs, and our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could harm our results of operations and financial condition. |
| ● | Actual or perceived failures to comply with applicable data protection, privacy and security laws, regulations, standards and other requirements could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. |
| ● | Our business and operations may suffer in the event of information technology system failures, cyberattacks or deficiencies in our cybersecurity. |
| ● | Maintaining and improving our financial controls and the requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert management’s attention and affect our ability to attract and retain qualified board members. |
| ● | Unfavorable global economic conditions could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. |
| ● | The market price of our common stock is volatile and you may sustain a complete loss of your investment. |
| ● | Risks related to Nasdaq’s proposed rule regarding minimum market value of listed securities. |
