Current report
We have undertaken, and expect to continue pursuing, strategic acquisitions, investments and joint ventures to enhance or add to our skills and capabilities or offerings of services and solutions, or to enable us to expand in certain geographic and other markets, such as our acquisition of our neurology assets. Depending on the opportunities available, we may increase the amount of capital invested in such opportunities. We may not succeed in completing targeted transactions, including as a result of the market becoming increasingly competitive, or achieve desired results of operations. Furthermore, we face risks in successfully integrating any businesses we might acquire or create through a joint venture. Ongoing business may be disrupted, and our management’s attention may be diverted by acquisition, investment, transition or integration activities. In addition, we might need to dedicate additional management and other resources, and our organizational structure could make it difficult for us to efficiently integrate acquired businesses into our ongoing operations and assimilate and retain employees of those businesses into our culture and operations. The loss of key executives, employees, customers, suppliers, vendors and other business partners of businesses we acquire may adversely impact the value of the assets, operations or businesses. Furthermore, acquisitions or joint ventures may result in significant costs and expenses, including those related to retention payments, equity compensation, severance pay, early retirement costs, intangible asset amortization and asset impairment charges, assumed litigation and other liabilities, and legal, accounting and financial advisory fees, which could negatively affect our profitability. We may have difficulties as a result of entering into new markets where we have limited or no direct prior experience or where competitors may have stronger market positions. We might fail to realize the expected benefits or strategic objectives of any acquisition, investment or joint venture we undertake. We might not achieve our expected return on investment or may lose money. We may be adversely impacted by liabilities that we assume from a company we acquire or in which we invest, including from that company’s known and unknown obligations, intellectual property or other assets, terminated employees, current or former clients or other third parties. In addition, we may fail to identify or adequately assess the magnitude of certain liabilities, shortcomings or other circumstances prior to acquiring, investing in or partnering with a company, including potential exposure to regulatory sanctions or liabilities resulting from an acquisition target’s previous activities, internal controls and security environment. If any of these circumstances occurs, they could result in unexpected legal or regulatory exposure, unfavorable accounting treatment, unexpected increases in taxes or other adverse effects on our business. …

Current report
We may not be able to successfully consummate the transaction contemplated by the Sigyn Letter of Intent.
Current report
On May 7, 2026, we announced that we had entered into a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) under which we expect to license from Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sigyn”) certain disease indications of CardioDialysis™, a blood purification technology that enables the broad-spectrum clearance of inflammatory and pathogenic molecules from the bloodstream. Under the terms of the proposed license agreement, we would receive an exclusive license from Sigyn to develop and commercialize CardioDialysis™ for the treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and other chronic neurodegenerative diseases. The proposed transaction terms set forth in the LOI include that: (i)** **we expect to issue 3,250,000 shares of a new class of restricted preferred stock to Sigyn, convertible, (ii) we expect to pay a three percent (3%) royalty on revenue from sales of the licensed technology following FDA market clearance, for a period of six years from the date of first commercial sale per approved indication and country, (iii) the closing is expected to occur within 90 days from the effective date of the LOI, subject to completion of due diligence, board approvals, an independent third-party valuation, and other customary closing conditions, and (iv) Sigyn has agreed not to license the CardioDialysis™ technology to third parties for the proposed Target Markets during the exclusivity period. The LOI is non-binding except for certain provisions including exclusivity, confidentiality, and governing law. The completion of a definitive agreement remains subject to due diligence satisfactory to us, board approvals by both companies, NYSE American continued listing compliance, and other customary closing conditions. Although the LOI provides that certain provisions are binding on the parties, it does not obligate the parties to consummate the proposed transaction. The consummation of the proposed transaction remains subject to due diligence and the negotiation, execution and delivery of a definitive license agreement and the satisfaction or waiver of applicable closing conditions. There can be no assurance that any definitive agreements will be entered into or that the proposed transaction will be consummated on the terms described therein or at all. The closing of the transaction is subject to various closing conditions, including without limitation the following: (1) due diligence satisfactory to the Company, (2) both companies shall have obtained its shareholders’ approval; (3) NYSE American continued listing compliance; and (4) other customary closing conditions. There can be no assurances that the conditions to consummate the transaction contemplated by the Sigyn LOI will be satisfied or that we will be able to successfully consummate a transaction.
Current report
The issuance of additional equity securities by us in the future associated with the transaction contemplated by the Sigyn LOI would result in dilution to our existing common shareholders.
Current report
Effective as of March 13, 2026, the Company issued 5,000 shares of Common Stock to Dawson James in payment of advisory fees pursuant to an Engagement Agreement dated as of March 13, 2026, at a price of $1.00 per share. The Company relied upon the exemption from registration provided under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering, and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder.

Previous wording
The Certificate of Designation for our Series H Preferred Stock contains anti-dilution provisions, which provisions require the lowering of the current $2.50 Conversion Price on any unconverted Series H Preferred Stock to the purchase price of future offerings by us (subject to certain exclusions). If in the future we issue securities for less than the Conversion Price of our Series H Preferred Stock, we will be required to reduce the relevant Conversion Price of any unconverted Series H Preferred Stock, which will result in a greater number of shares of Common Stock being issuable upon conversion, which in turn will have a greater dilutive effect on our shareholders. In addition, as there is no floor price on the Conversion Price, we cannot determine the total number of shares issuable upon conversion. As such, it is possible that we will not have sufficient available shares to satisfy the conversion of the Series H Preferred Stock if we enter into a future transaction that results in the reduction of the Conversion Price. If we do not have sufficient available shares for any Series H Preferred Stock conversions, we will be required to increase our authorized shares, which may not be possible and will be time consuming and expensive. The potential for such Conversion Price adjustments may depress the price of our Common Stock regardless of our business performance, and, as a result, we may find it more difficult to raise additional equity capital while our Series H Preferred Stock is outstanding.

Previous wording
Developing and commercializing biopharmaceutical products, including Phase 2 work for our ONP-002 product candidate and conducting nonclinical studies and clinical trials and establishing manufacturing capabilities, and the progress of our efforts to develop and commercialize our product candidates, is expensive, and can cause us to use our limited, available capital resources faster than we currently anticipate. Our current cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are not sufficient to fully implement our business strategy and sustain our operations. Our auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We anticipate we will need to raise additional capital in the future to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidates and operate our business. Until we can generate a sufficient amount of product revenue, if ever, we expect to finance future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate or government collaboration and licensing arrangements. However, our recently completed Series H Preferred Stock offering and the anti-dilution protection contained in the Series H Preferred Stock’s Certificate of Designation, as well as our auditor’s substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, may depress the price of our Common Stock regardless of our business performance and may make it more difficult for us to raise or obtain additional financing. Furthermore, even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may not be on favorable terms and, if such financing is undertaken at a price below the Conversion Price of our Series H Preferred Stock, it will trigger the anti-dilution protection in our Series H Preferred Stock’s Certificate of Designation, as discussed above, which in turn may result in a greater number of shares of Common Stock being issued upon conversion of our Series H Preferred Stock, which in turn will have a greater dilutive effect on our shareholders and may make it more difficult to raise additional capital. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to complete existing nonclinical and planned clinical trials or obtain approval of our product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities, and, absent sufficient additional financing, we may be unable to remain a going concern.

Previous wording
The warrants we issued in connection with the Series H Preferred Stock offering (the “Series H Warrants”) become exercisable upon issuance and will expire five years from the date of issuance. The exercise price of the Series H Warrants is $25 per share of Series H Preferred Stock. Upon exercise, a holder will be required to pay us the exercise price per share in cash and in exchange will receive shares of our Series H Preferred Stock with a stated value of $25. Such shares of Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price of $2.50. The number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into is determined by dividing the Offering Price by the Conversion Price. Thus, if the Conversion Price is $2.50, each share of Series H Preferred Stock, exclusive of dividends, is convertible into approximately 10 shares of Common Stock. If the market price of our Common Stock is below the Conversion Price, the holder of the Warrant may elect not to exercise the Warrant until the market price of our Common Stock increases. However, the market price of our Common Stock may never exceed the Conversion Price prior to the expiration of the Warrants. As a result, the holders of our Warrants may elect not to ever exercise their Warrants. We will not receive any additional proceeds in connection with unexercised Warrants, which likely will result in our needing to raise additional capital sooner than if some or all of the Warrants are exercised, of which there can be no assurances. Any Warrants not exercised by their date of expiration will expire worthless and we will be under no further obligation to the Warrant holder.

Upon exercise, a holder will be required to pay us the exercise price per share in cash and in exchange will receive shares of our Series H Preferred Stock with a stated value of $25. Such shares of Preferred Stock are currently convertible into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price of $1.00. The number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into is determined by dividing the stated value by the Conversion Price. Thus, if the Conversion Price is $1.00, each share of Series H Preferred Stock, exclusive of dividends, is convertible into approximately 25 shares of Common Stock. If the market price of our Common Stock is below the Conversion Price, the holder of the Warrant may elect not to exercise the Warrant until the market price of our Common Stock increases. However, the market price of our Common Stock may never exceed the Conversion Price prior to the expiration of the Warrants. As a result, the holders of our Warrants may elect not to ever exercise their Warrants.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
In connection with the transaction contemplated by the Sigyn LOI, we may issue 3,250,000 shares of a new series of our Preferred Stock, convertible into 3,250,000 shares of Common Stock. Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of our shareholders, to issue all or a part of our authorized but unissued shares, except where shareholder approval is required by law or the rules of any exchange on which our shares are listed. Any issuance of additional equity securities by us in the future in connection with the LOI could result in dilution to our existing common shareholders. Such issuances could be made at a price that reflects a discount or a premium to the then-current trading price of our common stock. These issuances would dilute the percentage ownership interest of our existing common shareholders, which would have the effect of reducing their influence on matters on which our shareholders vote and might dilute the book value of our common stock. The terms of the new series of our preferred stock are subject to further negotiation and may be issued without action or vote of our shareholders, except where shareholder approval may be required by law or the rules of any exchange on which our shares are listed. To the extent we are able to conclude the transaction contemplated by the LOI, the issuance of such new series of Preferred Stock convertible into common stock would result in significant dilution to our existing common shareholders. Such issuance could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise additional capital through future equity financings.
