Notes to Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation, Organization and Other Matters
Neuraxis, Inc. (“we,” “us,” the “Company,” or “Neuraxis”) was established in 2011 and incorporated in the state of Indiana in 2012 under the name of Innovative Health Solutions, Inc. The name was changed to NeurAxis, Inc. in 2022 when the Company filed a Certificate of Conversion to become a Delaware corporation.
The Company is headquartered in Carmel, Indiana, and specializes in the development, production, and sale of medical neuromodulation devices. The Company has developed four FDA cleared products: (i) IB-Stim (DEN180057, 2019), (ii) Rectal Expulsion Device (“RED”) (K242304, 2024), (iii) NSS-2 Bridge (DEN170018, 2017) and (iv) the original 510(K) clearance (K140530, 2014).
| ● | IB-Stim is a percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator (PENFS) device that is indicated in patients 8 years and older with functional abdominal pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome, functional dyspepsia (FD) and associated FD nausea symptoms. |
| ● | RED is indicated to evaluate the neuromuscular function of a patient’s ability to expel its contents from the rectum and as a qualitative test for rectal hypersensitivity patients who experience desire or urge to defecate at lower volumes of distention. RED is intended to be used in a clinical setting by trained health care providers in adult populations. |
| ● | The NSS-2 Bridge is a percutaneous nerve field stimulator (PNFS) device indicated for use in the reduction of the symptoms of opioid withdrawal and was licensed to Masimo Corporation (“Masimo”). Masimo marketed and sold this product as its Masimo Bridge. On July 1, 2025, The Company terminated the NSS-2 Bridge license with Masimo in exchange for $200,000 of consideration payable of which $100,000 was paid on December 31, 2025 and $100,000 is due June 30, 2026. The termination agreement allowed the Company to recapture the rights to the trademark (U.S. Registration No. 7,394,465) and two patent applications (Application No. 18/821/255 and Application No. 29/960.608) that were originally licensed to Masimo on April 9, 2020. |
| ● | The original 510(K) device was the EAD, an electroacupuncture device, now called NeuroStim. The EAD is no longer being manufactured, sold or distributed but reserved only for research purposes. |
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The summary of significant accounting policies of Neuraxis, Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
These significant accounting estimates or assumptions bear the risk of change due to the fact that there are uncertainties attached to these estimates or assumptions, and certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or value.
Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience, and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. The Company uses estimates in accounting for, among other items, revenue recognition, allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation, income tax provisions, excess and obsolete inventory reserve, and impairment of property and equipment, and intellectual property. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassification of Prior Year Amounts
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. The Company reclassified $1,144,176 of general and administrative expenses to selling expenses in the Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company also reclassified $227,507 of general and administrative expenses to research and development expenses in the Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net loss, total assets, total liabilities or total equity.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company didnot hold any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances, net of an allowance for credit losses. Management evaluates many factors when determining the collectability of specific customer accounts, including, but not limited to, creditworthiness, past transaction and payment history, current economic industry trends and changes in payment terms. Management used assumptions and judgment based on the best available facts and circumstances to estimate and record an allowance. The Company monitors accounts receivable and estimates the allowance for lifetime expected credit losses. Estimates of expected credit losses are based on historical collection experience, an aging schedule, and other factors, including those related to current and forecasted market conditions and events. The allowance for credit losses was $7,326 and $5,000 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company recorded credit losses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 of $2,326 and $7,395, respectively.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. The inventory is comprised of finished medical devices on hand. Certain components within the devices have an expiration date that are removed from current inventory and expensed at the date of expiration. The Company has reserved for expired inventory as charges to cost of goods sold of $19,973 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and research devices as charges to research and development of $10,097 and $4,454 for the for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Inventory reserves totalled $34,524 and $4,454 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Depreciation is calculated using the following estimated useful lives:
| Classification | Years |
|---|---|
| Machinery and Equipment | 7-10 |
| Furniture and Fixtures | 3-10 |
| Computer Hardware | 5 |
| Leasehold Improvements | 10-20 |
Depreciation expense was $37,691 and $26,346 during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of software, patents, a trademark and a license. Intangible assets are stated at their historical cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected useful lives. Capitalized patent costs, net of accumulated amortization, includes legal costs incurred for patent applications. In accordance with ASC 350, once a patent is granted, the capitalized patent costs are amortized over the remaining life of the patent using the straight-line method. If the patent is not granted, we write off any capitalized patent costs at that time.
The Company purchased a trademark related to the Company’s name for $50,000. The trademark does not have a determinate life and therefore the cost is not being amortized.
We review intangible assets for impairment annually or when events or circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. During the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company recordedno intangible asset impairment charges.
Amortization expense was $21,810 and $11,485 during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Cloud Computing Costs
The Company utilizes cloud computing arrangements that are hosted by third-party vendors to support its operations. The Company accounts for these arrangements as service contracts. Implementation costs incurred in connection with cloud computing arrangements are evaluated in accordance with the guidance for internal-use software. Cost incurred during the application development state, including configuration, coding, testing and integration activities, are capitalized. Costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages, as well as costs related to data conversion and ongoing support, are expensed as incurred. Payroll and payroll-related costs for employees directly associated with the project are also expensed as incurred.
Cloud computing implementation costs are included in Intangible Assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relating hosting arrangement, including periods covered by renewal options that are reasonably assured to be exercised. The Company evaluates cloud computing implementation costs for impairment annually or when events or circumstances indicated that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Cloud computing implementation costs, net of accumulated amortization, were $19,909 and $28,454 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Amortization expense related to cloud computing implementation costs totaled $8,545 and $8,545 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable, we compare the carrying amount of the asset group to future undiscounted net cash flows, excluding interest costs, expected to be generated by the asset group and their ultimate disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset group. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell.
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses consist primarily of advertising, marketing and promotion of the Company’s products including salaries and related personnel costs and travel expenses. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $546,628 and $232,125 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses consist primarily of clinical research studies, new product development, costs of materials and supplies used in research and development activities and salaries and related personnel costs for employees engaged in research and development activities of IB-Stim and RED as we seek FDA clearance for other indications. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the Company’s financial statements and tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts, and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities for the loss and credit carry forwards using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that these assets may not be realized. The Company determines whether a tax position will be sustained upon examination. If it is more likely than not that a position will be sustained, the benefit attributable to the position is recognized. The tax benefit to be recognized for any tax position that meets the more likely than not recognition threshold is calculated asthe largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon resolution of the contingency. The Company accounts for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of its provision for income taxes.
Management’s evaluation of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Furthermore, no interest or penalties have been accrued as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 or charged to expense for the years then ended.
Warrant Liabilities
Management evaluates all of the Company’s financial instruments, including issued warrants to purchase its common stock, to determine if such instruments are liabilities pursuant to ASC 480 and ASC 815-15. The classification of derivative financial instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period.
The Company utilizes a Black-Scholes option-pricing model to compute the fair value of the derivative and to mark-to-market the fair value of the derivative at each balance sheet date. The inputs utilized in the application of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model included an exercise price, the stock price as of the valuation date, an expected remaining term of each warrant as of the valuation date, estimated volatility, a dividend yield, and a risk-free rate. The Company records the change in the fair value of the warrant as other income or expense in the statements of operations.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical unrestricted assets or liabilities in active markets that the reporting entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market date, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. These unobservable inputs reflect that reporting entity’s own assumptions about what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.
The Company’s Level 1 assets and liabilities include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, prepaids, and other current assets. Management believes the estimated fair value of these accounts on December 31, 2025 approximate their carrying value as reflected in the balance sheets due to the short-term nature of these instruments or the use of market interest rates for debt instruments.
The Company’s Level 3 assets and liabilities include warrant liabilities and the floating lookback option provision in the Neuraxis, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Inputs to determine fair value are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models and discounted cash flow models. The valuation techniques involve management’s estimates and judgment based on unobservable inputs. The fair value estimates may not be indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a market exchange. Additionally, there may be inherent uncertainties or changes in the underlying assumptions used, which could significantly affect the current or future fair value estimates. Unobservable inputs used in the models are significant to the fair values of the assets and liabilities.
The following table provides a summary of the relevant assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
| Total | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Valuation Methodology | Unobservable Inputs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fair value of warrant liabilities as of December 31, 2025 | $16,800 | $— | $— | $16,800 | Black-Scholes model | Project simulated cash flows |
| Fair value of warrant liabilities as of December 31, 2024 | $9,166 | $— | $— | $9,166 | Black-Scholes model | Project simulated cash flows |
There were no transfers between any of the levels during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company’s had no assets and liabilities that were measured on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss), net of preferred stock dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents that were outstanding for the periods presented. In periods when losses are reported, which is the case for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Preferred stock dividends (neither declared nor paid) were $814,597 and $211,268 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The Company had the following potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at December 31, 2025 and 2024:
| 2025 | 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Options | 1,319,394 | 1,319,394 |
| Pre-Funded Warrants for Common Stock | — | 289,779 |
| Warrants | 1,379,524 | 2,352,751 |
| Series B Preferred Stock | 3,796,907 | 4,280,939 |
| Totals | 6,495,825 | 8,242,863 |
The following table shows the calculation of the basic and diluted net loss per share and the effect of cumulative preferred stock dividends:
| For the Years Ended December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Numerator | ||
| Net loss | $(7,800,555) | (8,241,501) |

| Weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding - basic and diluted | 9,083,399 | 6,918,887 |
| Basic and diluted net loss per share | $(0.95) | $(1.22) |
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for all stock-based awards at fair value. The Company recognizes its stock-based compensation expense using the straight-line method. Compensation cost is not adjusted for estimated forfeitures, but instead is adjusted upon an actual forfeiture.
The Company accounts for the granting of stock options and restricted stock units to employees and non-employees using the fair value method whereby all awards are measured at fair value on the date of the grant. The fair value of all employee stock options and restricted stock units is expensed over the requisite service period with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital. Upon exercise of stock options, the consideration paid by the option holder is recorded in additional paid-in capital, while the par value of the shares received is reclassified from additional paid-in-capital to common stock. Upon vesting of restricted stock units, the par value of the shares issued are reclassified from additional paid-in-capital to common stock.
Stock-based awards to non-employees are measured based on the fair value of the equity instrument issued. Compensation expense for non-employee stock awards is recognized over the requisite service period following the measurement of the fair value on the grant date.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock options. The use of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires management to make assumptions with respect to the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the common stock consistent with the expected term of the option, risk-free interest rates, the value of the common stock and expected dividend yield of the common stock. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, it performs the following five steps:
| (i) | identify the contract(s) with a customer; |
| (ii) | identify the performance obligations in the contract; |
| (iii) | determine the transaction price; |
| (iv) | allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and |
| (v) | recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
The Company applies the five-step model to contracts when it determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price, after consideration of variability and constraints, if any, that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company offers a Patient Assistance Program for pediatric patients without insurance coverage for IB-Stim. This program offers potential self-pay discounts for IB-Stim, based upon household income and size.
Also, the Company offers providers an opt-in program to address adequate insurance claim payments on IB-Stim devices. This program may extend a rebate or invoice credit where the insurance payment and patient responsibility (i.e., deductible, co-payment, and/or co-insurance amounts required by the Payer) are less than the acquisition cost of IB-Stim. The Company recognizes revenue at such a time that collection of the amount due is probable.
The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue based on the customer’s location by state for the years ended December 31:
| 2025 | 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| California | $898,223 | $778,209 |
| Ohio | 578,769 | 431,328 |
| Massachusetts | 265,201 | 154,407 |
| Illinois | 222,389 | 246,217 |
| Wisconsin | 215,431 | 157,786 |
| Florida | 143,947 | 149,985 |
| All other states | 1,245,322 | 767,993 |
| $3,569,282 | $2,685,925 |
Certain economic factors affect the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of the Company’s revenue and cash flows. All of the Company’s products are sold to healthcare customers including hospitals and clinics. Sales to healthcare customers are subject to seasonality and have a mild correlation with economic cycles. All of the Company’s sales are to customers located within the United States. Sales contracts consist of purchase orders that are short-term (i.e., less than or equal to one year).
The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations for goods at a point in time as they are received at the customer’s destination (rather than over time). Goods are shipped by common carrier to customers under FOB destination terms. As such, ownership of goods in transit is transferred to the customer upon receipt as the Company bears the associated risks (e.g., loss, damage or delay). Management typically relies on shipping information from common carriers to evaluate when the customer has obtained control of the goods. Shipping and handling costs are recorded as Cost of Goods Sold in the Statements of Operations.
The Company’s contracts with customers typically do not involve variable consideration. The information that the Company uses to determine the transaction price for a contract is similar to the information that the Company’s management uses in establishing the prices of goods to be sold.
Orders may not be cancelled after shipment. Customers may return devices if the goods are found to be defective, nonconforming, or otherwise do not meet the stated technical specifications. At the option of the customer, the Company shall either:
| ● | Refund the price paid for any defective or nonconforming products. |
| ● | Supply and deliver to the customer replacement conforming products. |
| ● | Reimburse the customer for the cost of repairing any defective or nonconforming products. |
At the time revenue is recognized, the Company estimates expected returns and excludes those amounts from revenue. The Company also reflects the effects of expected returns on the Company’s financial position and periodically adjusts those accounts to reflect its actual return experience. Estimated returns totalled $13,824 and $5,000 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Payment for goods sold by the Company is typically due after an invoice is sent to the customer, within 30 days. The Company does not offer discounts if the customer pays some or all of an invoiced amount prior to the due date. None of the Company’s contracts have a significant financing component.
Customer deposits are contract liabilities under ASC 606. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company had customer deposits of $28,660 and $32,527, respectively.
Medical devices that the Company contracts to sell and transfer to customers are manufactured by two separate and distinct third-party manufacturers located within the states of Indiana and Michigan. In no case does the Company act as an agent (i.e., the Company does not provide a service of arranging for another party to transfer goods to the customer).
Leases
In accordance with ASC 842, at the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and current and non-current lease liabilities, as applicable.
Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are initially recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as incentives received. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments, which reflects the fixed rate at which the Company could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments in the same currency, for a similar term, in a similar economic environment. Prospectively, the Company will adjust the right-of-use assets for straight-line rent expense, or any incentives received and remeasure the lease liability at the net present value using the same incremental borrowing rate that was in effect as of the lease commencement or transition date. The Company has elected not to recognize leases with an original term of one year or less on the balance sheet. The Company typically only includes an initial lease term in its assessment of a lease arrangement. Options to renew a lease are not included in the Company’s assessment unless there is reasonable certainty that the Company will renew.
Assumptions made by the Company at the commencement date are re-evaluated upon occurrence of certain events, including a lease modification. A lease modification results in a separate contract when the modification grants the lessee an additional right of use not included in the original lease and when lease payments increase commensurate with the standalone price for the additional right of use. When a lease modification results in a separate contract, it is accounted for in the same manner as a new lease.
Entities may elect not to separate lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to account for lease and non-lease components together as a single lease component for all underlying assets and allocate all the contract consideration to the lease component only.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s business activity consists of the sale of medical neuromodulation devices to doctors, clinics, and hospitals across the country. Receivables consist of unsecured amounts due from customers. The table below sets forth the Company’s customers that accounted for greater than 10% of its net accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

From time to time, the Company’s bank balances may exceed the FDIC limit of $250,000. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $4,465,073 and $3,263,618 of its cash balance uninsured, respectively.
Going Concern
We have incurred losses and negative cash flows since inception and have funded our operations primarily with a combination of sales, debt, and the sale of capital stock. As of December 31, 2025, we had stockholders’ equity of $3,399,372, short-term outstanding borrowings of $148,293, cash of $4,965,072 and a working capital surplus of $2,941,091.
Our future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including progress with developing, manufacturing, and marketing our technologies, the time and costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, and enforcing patent claims and other proprietary rights, our ability to establish collaborative arrangements, marketing activities and competing technological and market developments, including regulatory changes and overall economic conditions in our target markets. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability requires us to successfully market and secure purchase orders for our products from customers currently identified in our sales pipeline and to new customers as well. The primary activity that will drive all customers and revenues is the adoption of insurance coverage by commercial insurance carriers nationally which is a top priority of the Company. These activities, including our planned research and development efforts, will require significant uses of working capital through the rest of 2026 and beyond. Based on our current operating plans, we believe that our existing cash at the time of this filing will only be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating needs before the end of 2025.
Management evaluates whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date the financial statements are issued.
While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering of its debt or equity securities, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so on reasonable terms, or at all. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues and its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Neither future cash generated from operating activities, nor management’s contingency plans to mitigate the risk and extend cash resources through the evaluation period, are considered probable. As a result, substantial doubt is deemed to exist about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As we continue to incur losses, our transition to profitability is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support our cost structure. We may never achieve profitability, and unless and until doing so, we intend to fund future operations through additional dilutive or nondilutive financing. There can be no assurances, however, that additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

2024 Convertible Notes
On November 8, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with a shareholder for the issuance 1,260,504 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $3,000,000 paid in 15 monthly installments of $200,000 each, commencing on the later of January 10, 2024 or a date after stockholder approval of an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to authorize the creation of the Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock was convertible at any time into shares of common stock of the Company without any further consideration. Following the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, it would rank senior to the common stock with respect to payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company. Due to a delay in the stockholder approval, the Company amended the SPA on February 12, 2024 to issue a promissory note, due and payable on the earlier of 15 months or 12 months if the Series B Preferred Stock has not been authorized, convertible into Series B Convertible Preferred Stock with identical funding amounts and terms (the “$3,000,000 Convertible Promissory Note”). The shareholder funded $800,000 of the $3,000,000 commitment in 2024.
The Company then proceeded to enter into a series of incremental convertible promissory notes with other investors totaling $1,135,000 with terms identical to the $3,000,000 Convertible Promissory Note (collectively referred to as the “Original 2024 Convertible Promissory Notes”) for an aggregate principal amount of $1,935,000.
The 2024 Original Convertible Promissory Notes earned interest at 8.5% per annum payable quarterly in either cash or common stock at the election of the Company. At any time following the date of shareholder approval to authorize the creation of Series B Preferred Stock prior to the maturity date, the investor may elect to convert all or part of the principal into the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock at a conversion price per share equal to $2.38. Without limiting the forgoing, all principal amounts outstanding on the maturity date will automatically convert into the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative dividends at 8.5% per annum (whether or not declared) payable quarterly in either cash or common stock at the $2.38 conversion price at the election of the Company. Upon conversion to Series B Preferred Stock, the investor may elect, at its option at any time, to convert all or part of the Series B Preferred Stock plus accrued but unpaid dividends into an equivalent amount of common stock at the $2.38 conversion price.
Subsequently, the Company entered into three convertible promissory notes with related institutional accredited investors with terms similar to the Original 2024 Convertible Promissory Notes (collectively referred to as the “Amended 2024 Convertible Promissory Notes”) for an additional principal amount of $3,000,000. Certain provisions to the SPA and Certificate of Designation previously issued on February 12, 2024 changed, including (i) the number of shares of preferred stock to be designated as Series B Preferred Stock was increased to 4,000,000 shares, (ii) the stated value of the Series B Preferred Stock was changed to $2.38 per share, (iii) the right to receive dividends will expire automatically on June 30, 2025, (iv) the liquidation rights will automatically expire on June 30, 2025, and (v) the number of shares of the common stock that a holder of Series B preferred stock is entitled to receive shall not exceed the maximum percentage chosen by the holder, which is initially set at between 4.99% and 19.99% until shareholder approval is obtained, of the number of outstanding shares of the common stock at the time of the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shares. On November 11, 2024, the Company’s shareholders authorized an increase in the number of designated Series B preferred stock to 5,000,000 shares and extended the 8.5% per cumulative dividend period to December 31, 2026.
The maturity date was on the earlier of (i) June 21, 2025, (ii) upon written demand occurring on or after March 21, 2025 in the event that the Series B Preferred Stock has not been duly authorized on or before such date, or (iii) immediately upon the occurrence of an event of default. Automatic conversion into shares of Series B preferred stock (at a conversion price of $2.38 per share) would occur following the date of shareholder approval. In the event the Company failed to obtain shareholder approval before August 15, 2024, rights existed to convert the outstanding amount into shares of the common stock, at a price per share of $2.38.
As of August 15, 2024, the Company received $4,935,000 of the principal amount of the Amended 2024 Convertible Notes with the remainder due in monthly installments through March of 2025 resulting in an effective interest rate of 12.5%. On August 15, 2024, the Company’s shareholders authorized 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock of which 4,000,000 shares were designated as $0.001 par value Series B preferred stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended 2024 Convertible Promissory Notes, the outstanding principal balance of $4,935,000 was mandatorily converted into 2,073,524 Series B Preferred Shares at a conversion price of $2.38. Upon the mandatory conversion, the unamortized debt discount of $165,577 was reclassified to Additional Paid-In-Capital in the Statements of Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit).
Interest expense totalled $73,969 and $174,328 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s accrued interest totaled $66,648 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
10. Leases
Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the implicit interest rate is generally not readily determinable, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate reflects the estimated rate of interest that the Company would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar economic environment. Lease expense for the operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Leases may include renewal options, and the renewal option is included in the lease term if the Company concludes that it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Certain leases may contain rent escalation clauses, either fixed or adjusted periodically for inflation of market rates, that are factored into the calculation of lease payments to the extent they are fixed and determinable at lease inception. The Company also has variable lease payments that do not depend on a rate or index, primarily for items such as common area maintenance and real estate taxes, which are recorded as expenses when incurred.
The Company’s leases are comprised of operating leases for office space. At the inception of the lease, the Company determines whether the lease contract conveys the right to control the use of identified property for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Leases are classified as operating or finance leases at the commencement date of the lease. Operating leases are recorded as operating lease right-of-use assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in the Balance Sheets. The Company did not have any finance leases at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Company has two leases consisting of office space in Batesville and Carmel, Indiana. The lease in Batesville, Indiana commenced on August 1, 2025, and has an initial term of three years, with automatic one year renewals subject to an annual 4% rent escalation, unless 60 day notice of vacating is given. On May 19, 2025, the Company terminated its prior lease in Versailles, Indiana, with a monthly lease payment of $1,800, effective July 31, 2025, without penalty due to relocation of the office space to Batesville, Indiana, with the same landlord. The current monthly lease payment is $2,000 with no escalations during the initial lease term. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company derecognized the right of use asset and operating lease liabilities of $29,014 and $29,286, respectively, related to the terminated lease in Versailles, Indiana. Correspondingly, the Company recognized a right of use asset and operating lease liabilities of $63,170 and $37,970, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2025, related to the new lease in Batesville, Indiana. On June 13, 2025, the Company prepaid $25,200 towards the Batesville, Indiana monthly lease payments which will be amortized over the initial lease term. The lease in Carmel, Indiana commenced January 1, 2024, with an initial term of five years and five months. The monthly lease payment started at $6,721 with an annual increase of 2.5%. The Company was only obligated to pay an amount equal to 50% of the monthly base rent for the first 10 months of the term.
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $99,899 and $96,177 of operating lease expense, including short-term lease expense and variable lease costs.

The Common Stock Purchase Warrant Agreements attached to the 2023 Convertible Promissory Notes contained anti-dilution provisions on both the exercise price and the number of warrants. These anti-dilution features were triggered when the Company issued the Original 2024 Convertible Promissory Notes that contained a conversion price of $2.38 per share as compared to the $5.25 per share exercise price in the 2023 Convertible Promissory Note Common Stock Purchase Warrant Agreements. As a result, the Company issued 754,660 additional warrants in 2024 to the holders of the 2023 Convertible Promissory Note Common Stock Purchase Warrant Agreements. Additionally, investors converted 11,000 warrants into an equivalent number of common shares at an exercise price of $2.38 in exchange for $26,180 in cash proceeds.

Series B Preferred Stock shareholders vote with Common Stock shareholders on an as-converted basis and not as a separate class. Cumulative dividends accrue at 8.5% per annum and were due and payable in either cash for common shares at the Company’s discretion on a quarterly basis through June 30, 2025. Series B Preferred Stock converts to common stock on a 1:1 basis, subject to adjustments for stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events as well as unpaid dividends thereon, solely at the election of the holder at any time.

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Series B Preferred Stock shareholders maintain priority preference over all other classes of capital stock. A merger or consolidation (other than one in which stockholders of the Company own a majority by voting power of the outstanding shares of the surviving or acquiring corporation) and a sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company will be treated as a liquidation event, thereby triggering payment of the liquidation preferences.
There were 3,796,907 and 4,280,939 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The purpose of the ESPP is to provide eligible employees an opportunity to acquire common stock of the Company at a 15% discount using payroll deductions. The maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued under the ESPP is 100,000, subject to an annual increase on January 1st of each year from 2026 through 2035 by the lesser of (i) 1% of the Company’s outstanding capital stock as of the prior December 31st or (ii) 100,000 shares. The Board may reduce or eliminate this annual increase before February 1st of any given year. Total stock-based compensation expense includes $5,678 relating to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan for the year ended December 31, 2025.
14. Warrant Liabilities
The Company has evaluated financial instruments arising from warrants that are issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company utilizes a Black-Scholes option-pricing model to compute the fair value of the liability and to mark to market the fair value of the warrant at each balance sheet date. The inputs utilized in the application of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model included (i) an exercise price of $8.76 per share, (ii) an expected remaining term of each warrant based on the remaining contractual maturity of the each warrant, (iii) estimated volatility ranging from 65.3% to 94.7% based on historical stock prices of comparable companies with a look back period commensurate with the period to maturity, (iv) a risk-free interest rate ranging from 3.56% to 4.38% based on the interest rates of U.S. Treasury Notes consistent with the expected remaining contract term and (v) a 0% expected dividend yield as the Company has not paid dividends to date and does not anticipate declaring dividends in the near future.
The following are the changes in the warrant liabilities during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Warrant liabilities as of December 31, 2023 | $— | $— | $8,225 |
| Changes in fair value of warrant liabilities | — | — | 941 |
| Warrant liabilities as of December 31, 2024 | — | — | 9,166 |

15. Segment Information
The Company evaluates the following factors to identify its reportable segments: (i) nature of products and services, (ii) type of customer for the products and services, (iii) sales, production and distribution methods of the products and services and (iv) the nature of the regulatory environment, if applicable. Based on an evaluation of these factors, management concluded that the Company’s operations are managed through one reportable segment, IB-Stim, that derives its revenues in the United States from a PENFS device that is used to treat patients 8-21 years of age with functional abdominal pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome and in patients 8 years and older with functional abdominal pain associated with functional dyspepsia and related nausea symptoms. The accounting policies of the IB-Stim segment are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (see Footnote 2). The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) regularly evaluates the performance of the IB-Stim segment for the purpose of allocating resources based on net sales and operating loss, both of which are reported in the Statements of Operations. The CODM uses net sales to evaluate IB-Stim’s adoption and utilization by insurance carriers and physicians. As Neuraxis is an emerging growth company, operating loss is used to monitor the Company’s cost structure in order to achieve future segment profitability. Both net sales and operating loss are measured against an annual budget on a periodic basis to assess achievement toward annual compensation incentive targets. The Company’s CODM is its President and Chief Executive Officer.
The following reconciles the reportable segment net sales and operating loss to the Company’s reported net loss:

16. Settled Litigation
On February 6, 2019, plaintiff Ritu Bhambhani, M.D., initiated a lawsuit against Innovative Health Solutions, Inc. and others in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. Plaintiffs Bhambhani and Sudhir Rao subsequently amended the complaint, with the Third Amended Complaint (“Complaint”) containing the most recent set of allegations. The Complaint asserted claims under the RICO Act, as well as of fraudulent misrepresentation, intentional misrepresentation by concealment, and civil conspiracy and sought compensatory damages in excess of $5,000,000, pre-judgment interest, punitive damages, attorney’s fees, court costs and designation of the case as a class action. The Complaint stated that the Company, distributors of the Company’s product, and medical billing and coding consultants allegedly made misrepresentations to the plaintiffs that the Company’s NeuroStim device and related procedures could be billed to, and reimbursed by, Medicare and other insurance payors as a surgically implantable neurostimulator. Plaintiffs claim to have suffered damages when Medicare administrative contractors declined to pay plaintiffs for their use of the device.
On February 11, 2022, the Company filed a motion for summary judgment based upon the plaintiffs not being proper parties to assert claims against the Company. On June 14, 2022, the Court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment and dismissed the Complaint.
On July 14, 2022, plaintiffs Ritu Bhambhani and Sudhir Rao filed a notice of appeal with the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. On June 3, 2024, the Fourth Circuit denied the plaintiff’s appeal and entered judgment against the plaintiffs. On June 25, 2024, the Fourth Circuit entered its mandate declaring that its judgment against the plaintiffs took effect that day. The plaintiffs did not seek any further review or appeal of that judgment.
Also on July 14, 2022, plaintiffs Ritu Bhambhani, LLC; Box Hill Surgery Center, LLC; Pain and Spine Specialists of Maryland, LLC; and SimCare ASC, LLC initiated a lawsuit against the Company and others in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. The plaintiffs in this lawsuit are business entities owned or partially owned by the plaintiffs that initiated the litigation described above. The Complaint asserted claims under the RICO Act, as well as fraudulent misrepresentation, intentional misrepresentation by concealment, and civil conspiracy and seeks compensatory damages in excess of $75,000, pre-judgment interest, punitive damages, attorney’s fees, and court costs. The Complaint states that the Company, distributors of the Company’s product, and medical billing and coding consultants allegedly made misrepresentations to the plaintiffs that the Company’s NeuroStim device and related procedures could be billed to, and reimbursed by, Medicare and other insurance payors as a surgically implantable neurostimulator. Plaintiffs claim to have suffered damages when Medicare administrative contractors declined to pay plaintiffs for their use of the device.
On September 28, 2022, the Company filed a motion to dismiss all claims. On May 25, 2023, the Court issued an Order and a Memorandum Opinion which dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims related to the RICO Act. The remaining claims were still pending, and no trial date was set for the case. The Court vacated its Scheduling Order at the parties’ request so that the parties could try to resolve the disputes in both cases through an independent third-party mediator.
On April 25, 2025, the parties reached a tentative $750,000 settlement payable in 12 equal monthly installments beginning in January of 2026 as filed with the United States District Court for the District of Maryland with the settlement agreement duly executed on May 15, 2025. The Company recorded a charge of $630,568 for the year ended December 31, 2025, in the Statements of Operations classified as general and administrative expense, while imputed interest expense was recorded as incurred and totaled $62,115. As of December 31, 2025, the Company accrued $692,683 as accrued expenses in the Balance Sheet.
17.Commitments and Contingencies
Manufacturing Services Agreements
The Company is party to two separate manufacturing services agreements for the manufacture and supply of the Company’s IB-Stim and RED devices based on the Company’s product specifications that expire in March and August, 2027, respectively, and automatically renew annually unless either party provides a written termination notice to the other party within 180 days prior to the end of the then-current term. The Company’s IB-Stim and RED devices are manufactured in Indiana and Michigan, respectively. The Company provides the necessary equipment to the manufacturers and retains ownership. The manufacturers bear the risk of loss of and damage to the equipment and consigned materials. Performance under the agreement is initiated by orders issued by the Company and accepted by the manufacturers. The Company also entered into quality agreements with the manufacturers to perform quality assurance services on product provided by the Company.
Advisory Agreement
On March 18, 2024, the Company terminated its private placement services agreement and entered into an advisory agreement with a financial advisor for debt, equity and public securities market services for one year. The advisory agreement included a monthly fee of $30,000 and 7,563 common stock warrants to be issued monthly at an exercise price of $2.38 with a term of five years. On December 31, 2024, the Company and the financial advisor terminated the advisory agreement subject to the cancelation of 30,252 common stock warrants issued after July 2024 and the payment for services rendered totaling $180,000 during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Settlement Agreements
The Company issued 13,518 and 245,955 shares of common stock to various pre-IPO 2022 Convertible Note, warrant and Series A Preferred Stock holders to settle certain claims for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company recorded the fair value of the settlements totaling $30,240 as Finance Charges for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $230,824 of Finance Charges and $580,250 of Other Expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 in the Statements of Operations.
Executive Employment Agreements
The Company, as authorized by the board of directors, entered into employment agreements with nine key employees to provide incentives to improve shareholder value and to contribute to the growth and financial success of the Company. The agreements had an employment start date of October 1, 2022, with initial terms from two tofive years andoptional one-year renewals.
There are nine key employees and two non-employees that have stock options of the Company totaling 1,319,394 shares. These key employees have a provision in their agreements whereas the Company will pay a special bonus equal to the aggregate of the strike price or exercise price of all their stock options plus a tax gross-up payment. The special bonus shall be paid in twenty percent (20%) installments starting January 2, 2024, and the same date each of the next four years. As a condition of the payment, the key employee must exercise at least 20% of their stated number of stock options. There are additional provisions to cover termination and change of control events. None of the key employees exercised any of options as of January 2, 2026.
In April 2023, the Company amended the employee agreements to, among other things, clarify that the special one-time incentive payment and the deferred bonus are contingent upon the effective date of the planned initial public offering. The amendment also sets forth a process for executives to exercise the stock options in accordance with the terms of the stock option agreement in effect as of the date of the employment agreement and to clarify that there is no modification to the stock option agreements.
The Company recorded the fair value of the stock options totaling $8,596,661 on the grant date. In addition, a $6,225,169 incremental tax gross up payment is contingent upon the employees exercising their deferred bonus provision which will be recorded when probable.
On April 10, 2024, the Company terminated the employment of the Company’s Chief Operating Officer. Pursuant to the employment agreement, the Company made (i) salary continuation payments for six months during the year ended December 31, 2024, (ii) issued 25,832 shares of common stock at a fair value of $78,788 and (iii) made a $41,980 one-time payment in lieu of the exercise of 13,764 stock options that expired on January 2, 2024. The Company was also obligated to provide health care coverage through October 2025.
Threatened Litigation
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. As of the date of issuance, other than those described below, there were no pending or threatened legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s operations. There are also no proceedings in which any of the Company’s directors, officers or affiliates is an adverse party to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company’s interest. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.
In January 2024, Dr. Arturo Taca served notice to the Company that asserted an interest in its U.S. Patent No. 10,413,719 valued at $2,000,000 based on his own work in neurostimulation. The Company denied both the neurostimulation patent and compensation claims. The case remains unresolved. While it is too early to predict the ultimate outcome of these matters, we believe the Company has meritorious defenses and intends to defend these matters vigorously.
18. Employee Benefits
The Company sponsors a 401(k)-retirement plan for its employees. Employees are eligible to participate in the elective deferral portion of the plan after twelve months and 1,000 hours of service. The Company can also make a 3% discretionary profit-sharing contribution on an annual basis to employees with earnings under a certain threshold. Profit sharing expense totaled $19,634 and $20,868 for years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The Company participates in a self-funded employer program in conjunction with a group health plan for the benefit of eligible employees. This plan is a level funded plan, and the services and products include:
| ● | A self-funded employer health benefit plan. |
| ● | Stop loss insurance purchased from a stop loss insurance company. |
| ● | Third party administrator to provide administrative services with regard to the plan. |
The Company maintains a stop loss contract that reimburses the Company for claims paid under the plan if they exceed a predetermined level. The Company makes contributions for health care costs and associated expenses that are expected during the plan year. The amount of contributions is determined annually based on the Company’s maximum liability for expected claims, administrative expenses, and premiums for the stop loss policy. The Company incurred premiums of $308,975 and $257,642 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The Company is responsible for the monthly premiums, as established, and nothing further. The stop loss policy covers the claims if they exceed the claims funds. After a certain time, and if there is a surplus in the claims fund, the Company may be entitled to receive a 48.5% refund from the fund. This amount is recognized by the Company when received.
19. Income Taxes

The Company did not recognize an income tax provision for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 due to net operating losses reported in both years.
The Company did not pay any federal income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company received income tax refunds from the state of Indiana totaling $13,140 and $10,164 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
On July 4, 2025, the United States enacted theOne Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), Public Law No. 119-21, which includes significant changes to U.S. federal tax law. Key provisions of the OBBBA include, among other items, the extension of certain Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”) provisions, permanent reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying property and modifications to various deductions and credits within the Internal Revenue Code.
Under U.S. GAAP, the effects of changes in tax law are recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. Accordingly, the Company evaluated the provisions of the OBBBA during the year ended December 31, 2025. Based on the Company’s preliminary analysis, the enactment of the OBBBA did not result in a material change to the Company’s effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The Company continues to evaluate the full impact of the OBBBA, including interpretive guidance that may be issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service. As additional guidance becomes available, the Company may refine its estimates related to the accounting for income taxes under ASC 740.
Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the financial and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities. The temporary differences that give rise to net deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows:
| December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Deferred tax assets: | ||
| Net operating losses | $11,004,401 | $9,222,603 |

Management assessed the realizability of its deferred tax assets and determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the net deferred tax assets due to a history of operating losses. As a result, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance and does not reflect any deferred taxes in its Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
On December 31, 2025, the Company’s federal and state net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards totaled $43,160,139 and $41,230,553 respectively. These NOL carryforwards may be offset against future taxable income. There is no limitation on the number of years to utilize the federal NOLs. The federal deduction will be limited to 80% of modified taxable income. The state NOLs are allowed up to 100% of taxable income and generally can be carried forward no longer than 20 years after the year of the taxable loss.
Federal and state tax laws impose limitations on the utilization of NOLs and credit carryforwards in the event of an ownership change for tax purposes, as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to utilize these carryforwards may be limited as a result of an ownership change. Such an ownership change could result in a limitation in the use of the NOLs in future years and possibly a reduction of the net operating losses available.
If not used, the state NOL carryforwards will expire as follows:
| 2037 | $72,216 |
| 2038 | 1,039,986 |
| 2039 | 2,033,750 |
| 2040 | 4,457,495 |
| 2041 | 2,406,225 |
| Thereafter | 31,102,107 |
| No expiration | 118,774 |
| Total state NOL carryforwards | $41,230,553 |
The Company believes it has made adequate provision for all income tax uncertainties. The assessment is subject to change based on the completion of audits or statute of limitation expirations.
The federal and state income tax returns have a three-year statute of limitations once filed with the appropriate jurisdiction. The Company’s income tax returns are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities in the United States for the years ended December 31, 2022 through 2025.
