Current report
We invest resources in the research and development of new diagnostic products and technologies designed to address a range of medical conditions and unmet clinical needs. Our research and development activities include the development and optimization of immunoassays, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (“ELISAs”), rapid diagnostic tests, and related diagnostic technologies. These products are either internally developed or developed under contract for customers.
Current report
Our experienced and highly trained technical personnel, including Ph.D. level scientists and other scientific and technical professionals, are engaged in new product development, product improvement, contract development projects, and technology transfer activities. Many members of our technical staff have extensive experience in diagnostic product development and manufacturing, including prior experience at large diagnostic companies. We also utilize our Scientific Advisory Board, which includes physicians and clinicians with relevant areas of expertise, to provide scientific and clinical input regarding certain product development programs and clinical studies.
Current report
During fiscal 2026, we continued the phased commercialization of our inFoods® IBS product, focusing primarily on gastroenterology (“GI”) physician practices in multiple states and regions. During the year, we obtained a dedicated CPT® Proprietary Laboratory Analyses (“PLA”) code for inFoods® IBS and continued to advance our reimbursement strategy. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services established a national Medicare payment rate of $300 for inFoods® IBS, applicable to approved claims with dates of service beginning January 1, 2026. In addition, the applicable Medicare Administrative Contractor confirmed that claims for inFoods® IBS may be considered on an individual, claim-by-claim basis. We also entered into a marketing services agreement with Henry Schein to support the introduction and commercialization of inFoods® IBS to physicians in the United States.
Current report
Concurrently, we are pursuing distribution, partnership, and licensing opportunities with U.S. companies to support broader commercialization of inFoods® IBS. These efforts include our previously announced marketing services agreement with Henry Schein, which supports the introduction of inFoods® IBS to physicians in the United States. We may also pursue additional commercial relationships domestically and internationally.
Current report
During fiscal 2026, we engaged with the applicable Medicare Administrative Contractor regarding coverage and reimbursement for inFoods® IBS. While the establishment of the $300 Medicare payment rate does not guarantee coverage, utilization, or payment, management believes it represents an important step toward broader market access. Following fiscal year-end, our partner lab began submitting initial Medicare claims for inFoods® IBS under the applicable PLA code. Initial valid claims submitted to date have been paid at the full CMS price of $300. Claims are currently considered on an individual basis, and payment of any particular claim is not guaranteed. As Medicare reimbursement develops, we may pursue reimbursement with private payer insurance companies over time. We believe reduced out-of-pocket costs could support increased adoption and utilization of inFoods® IBS.
Current report
We continue to balance revenue generated from our established diagnostic products and contract manufacturing services with investments in newer diagnostic products, including inFoods® IBS and hp+detect™. Management believes this diversified portfolio approach provides opportunities to generate revenue from our existing business while advancing newer commercial initiatives. We also continue to pursue contract development and manufacturing opportunities that leverage our existing manufacturing, quality and technical infrastructure and may provide incremental revenue without requiring significant additional fixed infrastructure.
Current report
In May 2026, we entered into a Master Services Agreement with a life sciences company for the development of proprietary in vitro diagnostic assays. The agreement carries an initial contract development target fee of over $1,750,000, to be earned on a milestone-completion basis across multiple Statements of Work under the MSA over an estimated 19 to 25 months period. All development work will be performed at the Company’s FDA-licensed, ISO 13485-certified facility in Irvine, California, utilizing existing personnel, equipment and infrastructure. The engagement is expected to require minimal incremental costs, and management believes it may support improved utilization of the Company’s existing manufacturing infrastructure and provide incremental revenue. Revenue is recognized with executed Statement of Work and accepted milestone deliverables.
Current report
During fiscal 2026, we continued to manage operating expenses and allocate resources toward activities supporting commercialization, reimbursement and revenue generation. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased modestly, primarily reflecting higher regulatory fees, sales-related compensation and commercial support costs, partially offset by lower sales commissions for certain products. Research and development expenses decreased primarily due to lower labor allocations to research and development activities and reduced spending on certain research and development projects. Overall operating expenses increased slightly compared with fiscal 2025, reflecting higher selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower research and development spending.
Current report
Additionally, during the year ended May 31, 2026, we received net proceeds of approximately $1,827,000 from sales of our common stock under the ATM offering. Net cash used in operating activities also decreased to approximately $3,421,000 during fiscal 2026 from approximately $3,842,000 during fiscal 2025. We are also actively exploring strategic opportunities to enhance and create shareholder value.
Current report
For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, our net sales were approximately $4,453,000, representing a decrease of $858,000, or 16%, compared to $5,311,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. The decreasewas primarily attributable to lower clinical laboratory sales, reflecting variability in the timing and periodic nature of customer orders, as well as reduced over-the-counter sales resulting from lower retail market activity from international distributors, including the impact of uncertainties related to tariffs and international trade. Net sales were also impacted by lower contract manufacturing revenue following the completion of a prior research and development project. These decreases were partially offset by increased demand for the inFoods® IBS product; however, revenues from inFoods® IBS remained in the early stages of commercialization and only partially offset the declines in our established product and contract manufacturing businesses.
Current report
Consolidated cost of sales for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026 was approximately $4,091,000, or 92% of net sales, compared to $4,813,000, or 91% of net sales, for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. The decrease in cost of sales was primarily attributable to lower sales volumes in our clinical laboratory and contract manufacturing markets, resulting in lower product costs and manufacturing activity. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales remained relatively consistent year over year, with the modest increase primarily attributable to changes in product mix and lower overall sales volume, which resulted in reduced absorption of fixed manufacturing costs. We believe increased sales volumes, including from inFoods® IBS and contract manufacturing activities, could provide greater utilization of our existing manufacturing infrastructure and improved absorption of fixed production costs.
Current report
Selling, General and Administrative
Current report
Our selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $4,894,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, compared to $4,612,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, an increase of $282,000, or 6%. The increase was primarily attributable to a $179,000 increase in legal fees, a $126,000 increase in regulatory fees, a $27,000 increase in sales team compensation, and a $25,000 increase in outside services related to inFoods® IBS sales and marketing activities, partially offset by an $88,000 decrease in sales commissions. The year-over-year increase reflects continued investment in regulatory, sales and commercialization activities, while overall selling, general and administrative expenses remained relatively stable compared with fiscal 2025.
Current report
Our research and development expenses were approximately $788,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, compared to $1,023,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, a decrease of $235,000, or 23%. The decrease was primarily driven by approximately $199,000 of lower payroll and related personnel costs and approximately $39,000 of lower costs associated with our inFoods® IBS research and development activities. The decrease reflects the progression of certain programs, including inFoods® IBS and hp+detect™, from development activities toward commercialization, as well as the allocation of personnel and resources toward manufacturing and commercial activities. We continue to invest in research and development activities supporting our existing products, potential new applications of the inFoods® technology platform, product improvements and contract development opportunities. For additional information regarding our research and development activities, see “Research and Development” under Item 1. Business.
Current report
Dividend, Interest, and Other Income
Current report
Dividend, interest, and other income was approximately $1,233,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, compared to $165,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, an increase of $1,068,000, or 648%. This increase was primarily attributable to $1,100,000 related to the Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”), a refundable payroll-tax credit established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. The ERC was available to eligible employers for wages paid during calendar year 2021 in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic.
Current report
Unrealized Holding Gain on Equity Investment
Current report
We recognized an unrealized holding gain on our equity investment of approximately $335,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, compared to no such gain for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. The increase was due to the remeasurement of our investment in Diagnosis S.A. based on the purchase price set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into in May 2026.
Current report
Provision for Income Taxes
Current report
Our provision for income taxes was approximately $23,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, compared to approximately $1,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to foreign income taxes. We continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets.
Current report
As of May 31, 2026 and 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,308,000 and $2,399,000, respectively. As of May 31, 2026 and 2025, we had working capital of approximately $1,535,000 and $3,135,000, respectively. We have experienced variability in our revenue and a reduction in our cash position in recent periods, which has impacted our liquidity. The decrease in cash during fiscal 2026 primarily reflects approximately $3,400,000 of cash used in operating activities, partially offset by proceeds from sales of common stock under our 2024 ATM Offering and $500,000 of proceeds received under the secured promissory note described below.
Current report
Prior to year-end, the Company entered into a Master Services Agreement for CDMO services with initial target fees exceeding $1,750,000. Subsequent to year-end, the Company completed the Private Placement (as defined below) yielding approximately $2,230,000 in gross proceeds (see Note 11 of our consolidated financial statements). Management believes these transactions, combined with the Company’s other strategic initiatives, may address near-term capital needs; however, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s capital requirements.
Current report
During the year ended May 31, 2026, we sold 580,452 shares of our common stock at prices ranging from $2.20 to $4.02 pursuant to the ATM Offering, which resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $1,874,000 and net proceeds to us of $1,827,000 after deducting commissions, legal, and other offering costs totaling approximately $47,000.
Current report
In addition, on May 29, 2026, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to sell our investment in Diagnosis S.A. for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000 in a related-party transaction involving our Chief Executive Officer and other purchasers. Pending completion of the applicable share transfers and required procedures under Polish law, the purchasers advanced the $500,000 purchase price to us in exchange for a secured promissory term note. The note bears interest at 8% per annum, matures twelve months from May 29, 2026, and is secured by our rights and interests in the Diagnosis S.A. shares. The arrangement is intended to facilitate the monetization of this non-core investment while the applicable share-transfer process is completed. The share transfer is expected to be completed during the second quarter of fiscal 2027, subject to completion of the applicable procedures required under Polish law.
Current report
During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was approximately $3,421,000, compared to $3,842,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, representing an improvement of approximately $421,000, or 11%. The improvement primarily reflected a lower net loss in fiscal 2026, partially offset by less favorable working capital movements compared with the prior year. Cash used in operating activities during fiscal 2026 included increases in inventories and accounts receivable of approximately $140,000 and $66,000, respectively, a decrease in accrued compensation of approximately $162,000, and reductions in lease liabilities of approximately $363,000. These uses of cash were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of approximately $499,000 and net non-cash adjustments of approximately $496,000, primarily consisting of share-based compensation and amortization of right-of-use assets, partially offset by an unrealized holding gain on our equity investment and a recovery of inventory reserves.
Current report
During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, net cash used in investing activities was approximately $1,000, compared to $37,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. Investing activities in both periods primarily consisted of expenditures related to patents, which were approximately $1,000 in fiscal 2026 and $37,000 in fiscal 2025.
Current report
Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $2,334,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, compared to approximately $2,111,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. During fiscal 2026, financing activities primarily consisted of approximately $1,874,000 of gross proceeds from sales of our common stock under our 2024 ATM Offering, partially offset by approximately $39,000 of cash offering costs, and $500,000 of proceeds received under a secured promissory note in a related-party transaction. By contrast, during fiscal 2025, financing activities primarily consisted of approximately $2,143,000 of gross proceeds from sales of our common stock, partially offset by approximately $44,000 of offering costs and $3,000 of deferred offering costs, together with approximately $15,000 of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Current report
On December 12, 2025, our stockholders approved an amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 25,000,000 to 300,000,000 shares. On June 10, 2026, we filed the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, at which time the amendment became effective. Following the effectiveness of the amendment, we are authorized to issue 300,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
Current report
On August 20, 2026, we entered into entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “B. Riley Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional and individual investors identified on the signature pages thereto, which included among others B. Riley Principal Capital, LLC and all the members of our Board of Directors and our Chief Executive Officer (collectively, the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of 1,393,705 shares of our common stock, par value $0.08 per share (the “Shares”), at a purchase price of $1.60 per Share, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2,230,000 (the “Private Placement”). The closing of the Private Placement occurred on August 26, 2026 (the “Closing Date”). The Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and were offered and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
Current report
In connection with the Private Placement, on August 20, 2026, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Purchasers (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which we agreed to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement to register and provide for the resale of the Shares and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and remain effective for the periods specified therein. We are required to file such registration statement within 30 calendar days of the Closing Date and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective within 30 calendar days of the closing date (or 60 calendar days in the event of a “full review” by the SEC). If we fail to satisfy certain filing or effectiveness obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, we are obligated to pay the Purchasers liquidated damages equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Purchaser, subject to a maximum aggregate cap of 5.0% of such Purchaser’s subscription amount.
Current report

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company may adopt the guidance beginning in fiscal 2027 and is currently evaluating its impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Current report
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements.” The amendments clarify and consolidate interim disclosure requirements and establish a disclosure principle regarding events and changes occurring since the most recent annual reporting period that have a material effect on an entity. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect of adopting this guidance on our interim financial statement disclosures.

Previous report
We invest resources in the research and development of new products designed to diagnose and, in some cases, treat several major medical diseases. These products are either internally developed or licensed from others. Our experienced and highly trained technical personnel, including Ph.D. holders and other scientists, are dedicated to developing new products and managing technology transfer activities. Our technical staff, many of whom, have extensive experience from previous employment at large diagnostic manufacturing companies, bring a wealth of industry knowledge. Additionally, we rely on our Scientific Advisory Board, comprised of leading medical doctors and clinicians, to guide our clinical studies and product development efforts.
Previous report
We have introduced our inFoods® product to select gastroenterology (“GI”) physician groups in multiple states and regions, including collaboration with one of the largest GI groups in the U.S. This initial phase was focused on gathering real-world feedback, optimizing physician engagement, and validating operational processes. GI physician feedback has been generally positive, and we are continuing to expand our network by onboarding additional physician practices.
Previous report
Concurrently, we are evaluating distribution, partnership, and licensing opportunities with U.S. companies to support a scalable, broad market launch. These potential collaborations could significantly enhance the commercialization trajectory of inFoods® products, both domestically and internationally.
Previous report
We are currently in the process of applying for US government payment or reimbursement for the inFoods IBS product through the Medicare system. If the Company is successful in attaining reimbursement, we will move forward with applying for reimbursement of this product by private payer insurance companies. If patients are able to attain and use our inFoods IBS® product at no cost, or with a small co-payment, we believe this will dramatically increase our revenues from this product.
Previous report
Due to the slower-than-expected launch of our key products, inFoods® IBS and hp+detect™, we have initiated significant cost-cutting measures to extend our cash runway and work towards increasing revenues to cover overhead costs. These measures include a workforce reduction of nearly 15% during this fiscal year, which incurred costs such as severance, impacting typical cost trends and margins. Additionally, we raised $2,015,000 in net proceeds from the ATM offering filed in May 2024 providing additional liquidity to support our operations. We are actively exploring strategic opportunities to enhance and create shareholder value.
Previous report
Reverse Stock Split
Previous report
Effective April 21, 2025 (the “Effective Date”), we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, to effect a 1-for-8 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of our Common Stock. Beginning with the opening of trading on the Effective Date, our common stock began trading on Nasdaq on a split-adjusted basis under the same symbol, “BMRA.” As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 8 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding were automatically combined and converted into 1 validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. In lieu of any fractional shares, stockholders who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share instead had their interests automatically rounded up to the next whole share, after aggregating all the fractional interests of a holder resulting from the Reverse Stock Split.
Previous report
The Reverse Stock Split did not change the number of authorized shares of our common stock or preferred stock as set forth in our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended. All historical share and per share data for the periods presented in our consolidated financial statements, including for periods ending prior to the Effective Date, has been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-8 Reverse Stock Split on a retroactive basis as if the Reverse Stock Split occurred as of the earliest period presented.
Previous report
For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, our net sales were approximately $5,311,000, representing a decrease of $104,000, or 2%, compared to $5,415,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by reduced retail market activity, lower international over-the-counter sales due to potential tariff impacts, and volatility in clinical laboratory demand. These declines were partially offset by higher contract manufacturing billings and increased demand for our inFoods® IBS product.
Previous report
Consolidated cost of sales for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025 was approximately $4,813,000, or 91% of net sales, compared to $4,804,000, or 89% of net sales, for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024, reflecting a slight increase of $9,000, or 0.2%. The increase was primarily attributable to higher contract manufacturing costs, driven by increased sales in this category, as well as higher costs associated with our inFoods® product. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in direct labor costs. The overall margin impact also reflected a shift in sales mix, with lower over-the-counter sales, which typically generate higher margins in the retail market.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Previous report
Our selling, general, and administrative expenses were approximately $4,612,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, compared to $5,487,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024, a decrease of $875,000, or 16%. This reduction reflects our strategic financial management and was primarily attributable to a $351,000 decrease in payroll expenses following a reduction in force implemented in July 2024, a $327,000 decrease in stock compensation, a $66,000 decrease in marketing expenses for OTC products, and a $59,000 decrease in sales and marketing outside services. Overall, the decrease in SG&A expenses demonstrates our continued commitment to strategically allocating capital and maintaining financial discipline while pursuing growth opportunities.
Previous report
Our research and development expenses were approximately $1,023,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, compared to $1,491,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024, a decrease of $468,000, or 31%. The decrease was primarily driven by a $311,000 reduction in payroll expenses following a reduction in force implemented in July 2024, $68,000 in cost saving related to our inFoods® research and development projects, and a $33,000 reduction in research and development hp+detect™ project expenses as the research phase was completed. For a detailed discussion of our ongoing research initiatives and their potential market impacts, please refer to the “Research and Development” section in Item 1.

Dividend and Interest income
Previous report
Dividend and interest income was approximately $165,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, compared to $431,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024. The decrease of $266,000 was primarily attributable to lower market interest rates on our cash and cash equivalents, as well as a reduction in cash and cash equivalent balances.
Previous report
As part of our efforts to reduce costs, we have initiated significant cost-cutting measures to extend our cash runway and work towards increasing revenues to cover overhead costs. These measures include a workforce reduction of nearly 16% and a substantial reduction in other operating expenses.
Previous report
During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024, cash used in operating activities was approximately $5,361,000, compared to $5,474,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023. The primary factors contributing to this were a loss of approximately $5,978,000, a decrease in inventory reserves of $205,000, an increase in accounts receivable of $215,000, an increase in inventories of $115,000 and a decrease in lease liability of $297,000. These were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $246,000, and non-cash expenses of approximately $1,211,000.
Previous report
During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, cash used in investing activities was approximately $37,000, as compared to $115,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024.

During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024, we purchased approximately $51,000 of property and equipment and had $64,000 in expenditures related to patents.
Previous report
Cash provided financing activities was approximately $2,111,000 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, compared to cash used in financing activities of $81,000 in the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024. In fiscal year end May 31, 2025, we received net proceeds of $2,015,000 from the sale of our common stock and $15,000 from the exercise of stock options. In addition, the Company recorded a non-cash reclassification of $84,000 in deferred offering costs during the same period. By contrast, in the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024, our financing activities primarily consisted of $81,000 in payments for deferred offering costs.
Previous report
On July 21, 2025, the Company received a cash refund of approximately $1.1 million from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) related to previously filed claims for the Employee Retention Credit (ERC), a refundable payroll tax credit under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. This amount was recorded and collected subsequent to year-end.
Previous report
In July and August 2025, the Company completed sales of its common stock under its At-the-Market (“ATM”) offering program, generating net proceeds of approximately $919,000 subsequent to year-end.
Previous report
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The ASU includes enhanced disclosure requirements, primarily related to significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to and used by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The amendments are to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 on May 31, 2025, and the adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Technological advances in medical diagnostics have enabled diagnostic tests to be performed not only in clinical laboratories but also at home and at the point-of-care in physicians’ offices. One of our key objectives has been to develop and market rapid diagnostic tests that are accurate, utilize easily obtained patient specimens, and are simple to perform without the need for complex instrumentation. Our home use (over-the-counter) and professional use (physicians’ office, clinics, etc.) rapid diagnostic test products help manage existing medical conditions and may save lives through early detection and diagnosis of specific diseases. Traditionally, such tests required the expertise of medical technologists and sophisticated equipment, with results often not available for days. We believe our rapid point-of-care tests, when properly used, can be as accurate as laboratory tests. Our products require limited to no instrumentation, deliver reliable results in minutes, and can be performed with confidence at home or in a physician’s office.

A key outcome from our research and development efforts is our patented diagnostic-guided therapy (“DGT”) product, developed on the inFoods® technology platform. This innovative technology is designed to aid in the management of gastrointestinal conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (“IBS”) and other inflammatory diseases. The DGT product targets chronic inflammatory illnesses that are widespread and prevalent in large markets. We have launched inFoods® IBS product, which leverages this patented technology. The inFoods® IBS product utilizes a simple blood test to identify patient-specific foods that, when eliminated from the diet, may help reduce IBS symptoms such as pain, bloating, diarrhea, cramping, and constipation. Unlike broad and difficult to manage dietary restrictions, the inFoods® IBS product pinpoints a patient’s heightened immunoreactivity to specific foods known to frequently trigger IBS symptoms. By removing the foods identified as problematic, patients can achieve relief from IBS symptoms.

In addition, in December 2023 we received FDA clearance for hp+detect™, a diagnostic test designed to detect Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. H. pylori is a prevalent infection, affecting approximately 35% of the U.S. population and 45% of the population in Europe’s largest countries. This bacterium is recognized as the strongest known risk factor for gastric cancer, which remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths globally. The hp+detect™ test is marketed directly to laboratories and is intended to provide physicians and medical centers with a reliable tool for diagnosing H. pylori infections and monitoring treatment effectiveness. We are actively promoting hp+detect™ to large end-customer laboratories and positioning the product for commercial adoption.

The Company follows the guidance of ASC 718, Share-based Compensation (“ASC 718”), which requires the use of the fair-value based method to determine compensation for all arrangements under which employees and others receive shares of stock or equity instruments (options). The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses assumptions for expected volatility, expected dividends, expected forfeiture rate, expected term, and the risk-free interest rate. The Company has not paid dividends historically and does not expect to pay them in the foreseeable future. Expected volatilities are based on weighted averages of the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock estimated over the expected term of the options. The expected forfeiture rate is based on historical forfeitures experienced. The expected term of options granted is derived using the “simplified method” which computes expected term as the average of the sum of the vesting term plus the contract term as historically the Company had limited exercise activity surrounding its options. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the period of the expected term. The grant date fair value of the award is recognized under the straight-line attribution method.

We record valuation reserves for inventory items with excess quantities and obsolescence exposure. These reserves are estimates of a reduction in value to reflect inventory valuation at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Management evaluates quantities on hand, physical condition, and technical functionality as these characteristics may be impacted by anticipated customer demand for current products and new product introductions. The reserve is adjusted based on such evaluation, with a corresponding provision included in cost of sales. Abnormal amounts of idle facility expenses, freight, handling costs and wasted material are recognized as current period charges and the allocation of fixed production overhead is based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. Our inventory valuation reserves totaled $471,000 and $467,000 as of May 31, 2025 and 2024, representing approximately 24% and 16% of our inventory, respectively.
