Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
**1.**Nature of Business
iBio, Inc. (the “Company” or “iBio”) is a preclinical stage biotechnology company leveraging the power of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) for the development of hard-to-drug precision antibodies in the cardiometabolic and obesity space. The Company’s core mission is to harness the potential of AI and machine learning (“ML”) to unveil novel biologics which other scientists have been unable to develop. Through the Company’s innovative AI Drug Discovery Platform, it has been able to identify differentiated molecules aimed to address unmet needs by current GLP-1 receptor agonists.
The Company believes the future of obesity care lies not just in weight loss—but in quality weight loss. Current interventional therapies such as GLP-1 receptor agonists have ushered in a breakthrough era, yet challenges remain: muscle loss, fat regain after treatment cessation, and long-term tolerability. The Company is developing second-generation therapies to meet these unmet needs, using the power of AI-guided antibody design and advanced screening technologies. iBio’s obesity strategy is built on three key principles. First, the Company is aiming to develop next-generation antibody therapeutics addressing limitations of current approved treatments, offering options with a goal to preserve muscle mass, target fat selectively, and provide durable weight loss with improved tolerability. Second, the Company is focusing on targets with strong human validation, which it believes both helps reduce development risk and increase the likelihood of clinical success. Lastly, the Company is applying its integrated AI Drug Discovery Platform and deep scientific expertise to rapidly generate development-ready biologics, enabling it to move with speed and precision in a competitive and fast-evolving field. The Company’s current therapeutics are all in preclinical development and it has not completed any clinical trials in humans for any therapeutic protein product candidate produced using its technology and there is a risk that the Company will be unsuccessful in developing or commercializing any product candidates. The Company anticipates the commencement of its first human clinical trials in late fiscal 2026 or early fiscal 2027. As the Company continues to leverage its technology stack and develop its existing immune-oncology pre-clinical pipeline, it is also seeking strategic partners with the capabilities to more rapidly advance these programs towards the clinic.
The Company’s current pre-clinical product candidate pipeline is set forth below.
Through the Company’s innovative AI Drug Discovery Platform, it champions a culture of innovation by identifying novel targets, forging strategic collaborations to enhance efficiency, diversify pipelines, with the goal of accelerating preclinical processes. The Company’s proprietary technology stack is designed to minimize downstream development risks by employing AI-guided epitope-steering and monoclonal antibody (“mAb”) optimization.
The Company’s proprietary technology stack combines Epitope Steering, its patented AI engine that directs antibody binding to precisely defined regions of target proteins, increasing selectivity and therapeutic impact; StableHu, a generative AI tool that rapidly optimizes antibodies for expression, stability, and manufacturability; and mammalian display-based multidimensional screening, enabling simultaneous optimization of affinity, specificity, and half-life in a single selection step. Together, these tools power a fully integrated platform that allows the Company to go from concept to in vivo proof-of-concept within weeks, accelerating the development of first-in-class and best-in-class biologics. The Company’s EngageTx technology enables it to target bi-specific molecules. Data from a number of in vitro tumor cell-killing assays suggests that the Company’s most advanced MUC16 clone, when combined with eight distinct CD3 binders using our EngageTx technology, revealed a potency range of approximately 33,000-fold. With the ability to navigate sequence diversity and promote Human-Cyno cross reactivity while mitigating cytokine release, the goal is to enhance agility and bolster preclinical safety assessments. Another key technology of the Company’s technology stack is its ShieldTx masking technology, which keeps antibodies inactive until they reach diseased tissue. At that point, the masks are removed and the antibodies become active, all with the goal of broadening the therapeutic window and potentially improving both efficacy and safety.
iBio’s discovery and development work is conducted at the Company’s San Diego research and development laboratory space, where its AI and machine learning (ML) scientists and biopharma researchers operate side by side. This close integration of disciplines enables rapid iteration between in silico design and wet-lab validation, compressing the timeline from hypothesis to lead selection. With the Company’s robust platform, focused pre-clinical pipeline, and growing scientific and leadership team, it is building a durable and differentiated position in obesity therapeutics—one designed to outlast the first wave and define what comes next.
Digital Infrastructure
iBio is a firm believer in the transformative power of digital technologies, including robotics, automation, AI, ML, and cloud computing. These technologies are integral to operationalizing the Company’s strategy, accelerating its learning curve, and executing at scale. As such, the Company has made substantial investments in these areas. iBio’s aspiration is to digitize its operations to the greatest extent possible, harnessing the potential of digital technology to maximize its impact on human health. As the Company continues to grow, it remains committed to further investing in its digital infrastructure to support its ambitious goals.
Strategic Alliances, Collaborations, and Joint Ventures
The Company has formed collaborations and strategic alliances to gain access to funding, capabilities, technical resources and intellectual property to further its development efforts, commercialize its technology and to generate revenues, including through the use of its patented epitope-steering AI-engine and our EngageTx platform.
- Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of iBio Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Liquidity, Financial Condition and Management’s Plans
In accordance with ASU No. 2014-15,Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.
The Company has incurred net losses and generated negative cash flows from operations for many years. For the year ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $18.4 million and had negative cash flows from operations of approximately $15.3 million. Historically, the Company’s liquidity needs have been met by the sale and issuances of common shares including the issuances of common shares through the exercise of warrants. As of June 30,
2025, iBio had total current assets of approximately $9.7 million, of which approximately $8.6 million was cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has an operating capital deficit of $15.3 million which compares to the $18.6 million operating capital deficit it maintained as of June 30, 2024.
The history of significant losses, the negative cash flow from operations, the limited cash resources on hand and the dependence by the Company on its ability to obtain additional financing to fund its operations after the current cash resources are exhausted raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In evaluating the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, the Company took into account the potential mitigating effects of management’s previously disclosed plans to mitigate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, which plans are in the process of being fully implemented.
In an effort to mitigate the substantial doubt about continuing as a going concern and increasing cash reserves, the Company has raised funds from time to time through equity offerings or other financing alternatives, entered into a collaboration agreement to discover and develop novel antibodies for obesity and other cardiometabolic diseases and sold certain intellectual property rights. Potential options being considered to further increase liquidity include focusing product development on a select number of product candidates, the sale or out-licensing of certain product candidates, raising money from the capital markets, collaborations, or a combination thereof. However, the Company anticipates that its expenses will increase as it continues its research and development activities and conducts clinical trials. The Company made significant progress implementing these plans, which progress is described below.
On July 3, 2024, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with Chardan and Craig-Hallum (collectively, the “Sales Agents”) providing for the issuance and sale by the Company of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), from time to time, through the Sales Agents, with certain limitations on the amount of Common Stock that may be offered and sold by the Company as set forth in the ATM Agreement (the “ATM”). Offers and sales of shares of Common Stock by the Company, if any, under the ATM Agreement, are subject to the effectiveness of the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3, filed with the SEC on July 3, 2024, which became effective on August 6, 2024. The aggregate market value of the shares of Common Stock eligible for sale under the ATM prospectus supplement included in the Registration Statement is currently $7,350,000, which is based on the limitations of General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3.
Under the ATM Agreement, the Sales Agents for the Company sold 3,184,899 shares during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $2,617,000. The Company also sold 305,424 shares in July 2025 and received net proceeds of approximately $219,000. See Note 16 – Stockholders’ Equity and Note 22 – Subsequent Events for additional information.
On January 10, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “2025 Purchase Agreement”) with certain of its officers and directors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors, in a private placement priced at-the-market (the “2025 Private Placement”) consistent with the rules of the NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American”), an aggregate of 240,807 shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock. The purchase price of each Share was $2.72, the last reported closing price of the Common Stock on the date of execution of the 2025 Purchase Agreement. The closing price was greater than the book value of the Common Stock on the date of the execution of the 2025 Purchase Agreement. The 2025 Private Placement closed on January 10, 2025 and the Company received aggregate gross proceeds from the 2025 Private Placement of approximately $655,000, before deducting offering expenses payable by the Company.
On April 29, 2025, the Company entered into a warrant inducement agreement (the “Inducement Agreement”) with institutional investors that are holders (the “Holders”) of certain existing warrants (the “Existing Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company. Pursuant to the Inducement Agreement, the Holders agreed to exercise for cash on April 29, 2025 the Existing Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,626,685 shares of Common Stock at a reduced exercise price of $0.86 per share, which was the Minimum Price, as defined in the rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, as of the close of trading on April 28, 2025. In consideration of the Holders’ agreement to exercise the Existing Warrants in accordance with the Inducement Agreement, the Company agreed to issue new warrants (the “Inducement Warrants”) to purchase up to 11,253,370 shares of Common Stock, which is equal to 200% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Existing Warrants (the “Inducement Warrant Shares”), for consideration of $0.125 per
Inducement Warrant. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $6.2 million from the exercise of the Existing Warrants and the sale of the Inducement Warrants, before deducting offering fees and other expenses payable by the Company.
On August 19, 2025, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Leerink Partners LLC (“Leerink”), relating to the offering, issuance and sale of pre-funded warrants (the “2025 Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 71,540,000 shares of Common Stock and accompanying Series G warrants (the “Series G Warrants”) to purchase (i) an aggregate of up to 35,770,000 shares of Common Stock (or, for those investors who so choose, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 35,770,000 shares of Common Stock in lieu thereof) and (ii) Series H warrants (the “Series H Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of up to 35,770,000 shares of Common Stock (or, for those investors who so choose, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 35,770,000 shares of Common Stock in lieu thereof) (the “2025 Offering”). The combined public offering price per 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Series G Warrant is $0.699.
The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $50 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company of approximately $3.5 million. The Company has the potential to receive additional proceeds if the Series G Warrants and Series H Warrants are exercised in full for cash.
Based on management’s plans described above, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are anticipated to be sufficient to support operations for at least 12 months from the date of the filing of this Annual Report. Accordingly, the Company concluded it has alleviated substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Reverse Stock Split
Following the 2023 Annual Meeting, the Company’s Board approved a reverse stock split at a ratio of one-for-20 (1:20). Following such approval, on November 28, 2023, the Company filed an Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect the 2024 Reverse Stock Split.
- Discontinued Operations
On November 3, 2022, the Company announced it was seeking to divest its contract development and manufacturing organization (iBio CDMO) in order to complete its transformation into an antibody discovery and development company. In conjunction with the divestment, the Company reduced its workforce and sold at public auction equipment and other tangible personal property located at the 130,000 square foot cGMP facility located in Bryan, Texas (the “Facility”).
On May 17, 2024, iBio CDMO entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “2024 Purchase and Sale Agreement”) with The Board of Regents of the Texas A&M University System (“The Board of Regents”) pursuant to which iBio CDMO agreed to terminate the Ground Lease Agreement (the “Ground Lease Agreement)with The Board of Regents, dated March 8, 2010, as amended by an Estoppel Certificate and Amendment to Ground Lease Agreement, dated as of December 22, 2015 (together with the Ground Lease Agreement, the “Ground Lease”), related to 21.401 acres in Brazos County, Texas (the “Land”) and completed the sale to The Board of Regents of: (i) the buildings, parking areas, improvements, and fixtures situated on the Land (the “Improvements”); (ii) all iBio CDMO’s right, title, and interest in and to furniture, personal property, machinery, apparatus, and equipment owned and currently used in the operation, repair and maintenance of the Land and Improvements and situated thereon (collectively, the “Personal Property”); (iii) all iBio CDMO’s rights under the contracts and agreements relating to the operation or maintenance of the Land, Improvements or Personal Property which extend beyond the closing date (the “Contracts”); and (iv) all iBio CDMO’s rights in intangible assets of any nature relating to any or all of the Land, the Improvements and the Personal Property (the “Intangibles”; and together with the Ground Lease, Improvements and Personal Property, collectively, the “Property”). The sale price was$8,500,000.
In connection with the purchase of the Facility, iBio CDMO entered into a Credit Agreement, dated November 1, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”), with Woodforest National Bank (“Woodforest”) pursuant to which Woodforest had provided iBio CDMO a $22,375,000 secured term loan (the “Term Loan”) to purchase the Facility, which Term Loan was evidenced by a Term Note (the “Term Note”). On May 17, 2024, iBio CDMO, the Company and Woodforest entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) which provided that iBio CDMO would pay to
Woodforest the proceeds of the sale of the Property under the 2024 Purchase and Sale Agreement when received, determine in consultation with Woodforest the remaining balance due under the Credit Agreement (the “Indebtedness Deficiency Amount”) and thereafter the Company issued to Woodforest a pre-funded warrant to purchase 1,560,570 shares of Common Stock (“Pre-Funded Warrant”). (See Note 13 – Debt for additional information.)
On May 31, 2024, in accordance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement in consideration of the payment in full of all Obligations (as such term is defined under the Credit Agreement) (a) iBio CDMO paid to Woodforest (i) $8,500,000, which it received from the sale of the Property under the 2024 Purchase and Sale Agreement, and (ii) approximately $915,000 from restricted cash which had previously been held by Woodforest, and (b) the Company issued a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase 1,560,570 shares of its Common Stock to Woodforest. On January 13, 2025, the Pre-Funded Warrant was subsequently assigned by Woodforest to Lynx1 Master Fund LP. The Pre-Funded Warrant expires upon full exercise thereof and is exercisable at a nominal exercise price equal to $0.0001 per share.
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Guaranty dated November 1, 2021 and the other Loan Documents (each as defined in the Credit Agreement) were terminated and Woodforest released the Company and iBio CDMO from any and all claims, debts, liabilities or causes of action it may have against them prior to May 31, 2024, and the Company and iBio CDMO released Woodforest and its related parties from any and all claims, debts, liabilities or causes of action it may have against them prior to May 31, 2024.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an additional fixed asset impairment charge of $3.1 million, a loss on the sale of the Facility of approximately $4.8 million and a gain on the extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.8 million in discontinued operations. (See Note 13 – Debt for additional information.)
The results of iBio CDMO's operations ceased in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 and were reported as discontinued operations for the year ended June 30, 2024. No assets or liabilities associated with the discontinued operations of the CDMO remained on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2024. The Company had chosen not to segregate the cash flows of iBio CDMO in the consolidated statement of cash flow for the year ended June 30, 2024 and accordingly, supplemental disclosures related to discontinued operations for the statements of cash flows have been provided below. Unless noted otherwise, discussion in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements refers to the Company's continuing operations.

- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates include liquidity assertions, the valuation of intellectual property and fixed assets held for sale, the incremental borrowing rate utilized in the finance and operating lease calculations, legal and contractual contingencies, the valuation of the pre-funded warrants issued to related to the extinguishment of the Term Loan, and share-based compensation. Although management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances net of allowances for uncollectible accounts. The Company provides for allowances for uncollectible receivables based on its estimate of uncollectible amounts considering age, collection history, and any other factors considered appropriate. Management’s policy is to write off accounts receivable against the allowance for credit losses when a balance is determined to be uncollectible. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no accounts receivable and therefore no allowance for credit losses was needed. The Company hadno accounts receivable at June 30, 2023.
Subscription Receivable
The Company accounts for any subscription receivable as a current asset. Subscription receivables represent funds related to the sale of Common Stock in which the funds have not yet been delivered to the Company. The funds are generally held in escrow on behalf of the Company and are delivered within a few days.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for its revenue recognition under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. A contract with a customer exists only when: (i) the parties to the contract have approved it and are committed to perform their respective obligations, (ii) the Company can identify each party’s rights regarding the distinct goods or services to be transferred (“performance obligations”), (iii) the Company can determine the transaction price for the goods or services to be transferred, (iv) the contract has commercial substance and (v) it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligations by transferring control of a promised good or service to the customer. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts.
The Company analyzes its contracts to determine whether the elements can be separately identifiable and accounted for individually or as a bundle of goods or services. Allocation of revenue to individual elements that qualify for performance obligations is based on the separate selling prices determined for each component, and total contract consideration is then allocated pro rata across the components of the arrangement. If separate selling prices are not available, the Company will use its best estimate of such selling prices, consistent with the overall pricing strategy and after consideration of relevant market factors. If a loss on a contract is anticipated, such loss is recognized in its entirety when the loss becomes evident. When the current estimates of the amount of consideration that is expected to be received in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to the customer indicates a loss will be incurred, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company hadno credit loss provisions.
The Company generates contract revenue under the following types of contracts:
Fixed-Fee
Under a fixed-fee contract, the Company charges a fixed agreed upon amount for a deliverable. Fixed-fee contracts have fixed deliverables upon completion of the project. Typically, the Company recognizes revenue for fixed-fee contracts after projects are completed, delivery is made and title transfers to the customer, and collection is reasonably assured.
Revenue can be recognized either 1) over time or 2) at a point in time.
Collaborations/Partnerships
The Company may enter into research and discovery collaborations with third parties that involve a joint operating activity, typically a research and/or development effort, where both parties are active participants in the activity and are exposed to the significant risks and rewards of the activity. The Company’s rights and obligations under its collaboration agreements vary and typically include milestone payments, contingent upon the occurrence of certain future events linked to the success of the asset in development, as well as expense reimbursements from or payments to the collaboration partner.
The Company considers the nature and contractual terms of agreements and assesses whether an agreement involves a joint operating activity pursuant to which the Company is an active participant and is exposed to significant risks and rewards dependent on the commercial success of the activity as described under ASC 808,Collaborative Arrangements (“ASC 808”). For arrangements determined to be within the scope of ASC 808 where a collaborative partner is not a customer for certain research and development activities, the Company accounts for payments received for the reimbursement of research and development costs as a contra-expense in the period such expenses are incurred. If payments from the collaborative partner to the Company represent consideration from a customer in exchange for distinct goods and services provided, then the Company accounts for those payments within the scope of ASC 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).
Collaborative revenues generated typically include payment to the Company related to one or more of the following: non-refundable upfront license fees, development and commercial milestones, and partial or complete reimbursement of research and development costs.
For the year ended June 30, 2025, revenue in the amount of $400,000 was recognized for services provided to a collaborative partner. For the year ended June 30, 2024, revenue in the amount of $225,000 was recognized from research activities performed and a non-refundable upfront license fee for which performance obligations were satisfied.
Contract Assets
A contract asset is an entity's right to payment for goods and services already transferred to a customer if that right to payment is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Generally, an entity will recognize a contract asset when it has fulfilled a contract obligation but must perform other obligations before being entitled to payment.
Contract assets consist primarily of the cost of project contract work performed by third parties whereby the Company expects to recognize any related revenue at a later date, upon satisfaction of the contract obligations. At both June 30, 2025 and 2024, contract assets were $0.
Contract Liabilities
A contract liability is an entity’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer at the earlier of (1) when the customer prepays consideration or (2) the time that the customer’s consideration is due for goods and services the entity will yet provide. Generally, an entity will recognize a contract liability when it receives a prepayment.
Contract liabilities consist primarily of consideration received, usually in the form of payment, on project work to be performed whereby the Company expects to recognize any related revenue at a later date, upon satisfaction of the contract obligations. At June 30, 2025 and 2024 and 2023, contract liabilities were $1,200,000, $200,000 and $0, respectively. The Company recognized revenue of $200,000 in 2025 that was included in the contract liabilities balance as of June 30, 2024.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases under the guidance of ASC 842, Leases. The standard established a right-of-use (“ROU”) model requiring a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months and classified as either an operating or finance lease. The adoption of ASC 842 had a significant effect on the Company’s balance sheet, resulting in an increase in noncurrent assets and both current and noncurrent liabilities.
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 and the classification of the lease including whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, whether the Company obtains the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset, and whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as ROU assets, lease liabilities and, if applicable, long-term lease liabilities. The Company has elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of one year or less under practical expedient in paragraph ASC 842-20-25-2. For contracts with lease and non-lease components, the Company has elected not to allocate the contract consideration and to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
The lease liability and the corresponding ROU assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The implicit rate within the Company’s existing finance (capital) lease was determinable and, therefore, used at the adoption date of ASC 842 to determine the present value of lease payments under the finance lease. The implicit rate within the Company’s operating lease was not determinable and, therefore, the Company used the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. The determination of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate requires judgement. The Company will determine the incremental borrowing rate for each new lease using its estimated borrowing rate.
An option to extend the lease is considered in connection with determining the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise that option. An option to terminate is considered unless it is reasonably certain the Company will not exercise the option.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents at June 30, 2025 and 2024 consisted of money market accounts. Restricted cash at June 30, 2025 consists of a letter of credit obtained related to the San Diego operating lease (see Note 15 – Operating Lease Obligations) and a Company purchasing card. The Company’s bank requires an additional 5% collateral held above the actual letters of credit issued for the San Diego lease and Company purchasing card. Restricted cash was $210,000 and $215,000 June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The following table summarizes the components of total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| · · June 30, · · June 30, | ||||||
| · 2025 · 2024 | ||||||
| Cash and equivalents | | $8,582 | | $14,210 | ||
| Collateral held for letter of credit - San Diego lease | | | 203 | | | 198 |
| Collateral held for Company purchasing card | | | 7 | | | 17 |
| Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | | $8,792 | | $14,425 | ||
Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 730-10, “Research and Development” (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Research and development expenses were reported in continuing operations for the years ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024. No research and development expenses were reported in discontinued operations for the year ended June 30, 2024.
Right-of-Use Assets
Assets held under the terms of finance (capital) leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases or the economic lives of the assets. Obligations for future lease payments under finance (capital) leases are shown within liabilities and are analyzed between amounts falling due within and after one year. See Note 8 - Finance Lease ROU Assets and Note 14 - Finance Lease Obligations for additional information.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to 10 years.
The Company monitors fixed assets for impairment indicators throughout the year. When necessary, charges for impairments of long-lived assets are recorded for the amount by which the fair value is less than the carrying value of these assets. Changes in the Company’s business strategy or adverse changes in market conditions could impact impairment analyses and require the recognition of an impairment charge. Although management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from these estimates.
See Note 10 – Fixed Assets for additional information.
Intangible Assets
Identifiable intangible assets are comprised of definite life intangible assets and indefinite life intangible assets.
The Company accounts for definite life intangible assets at either their historical cost or allocated purchase price at asset acquisition and records amortization utilizing the straight-line method based upon their estimated useful lives. Intellectual property is amortized over 20 years. The Company reviews the carrying value of its definite life intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate the carrying amount of such assets may not be fully recoverable. The carrying value is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds it fair value.
For indefinite life intangible assets, the Company performs an impairment test annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company determines the fair value of the asset annually or when triggering events are present, based on discounted cash flows and records an impairment loss if book value exceeds fair value.
Evaluating for impairment requires judgment, including the estimation of future cash flows, future growth rates and profitability and the expected life over which cash flows will occur. Changes in the Company’s business strategy or adverse changes in market conditions could impact impairment analyses and require the recognition of an impairment charge. Although management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could differ from these estimates.
See Note 11 – Intangible Assets for additional information.
Share-based Compensation
The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based payment transactions at fair value. Compensation cost, measured by the fair value of the equity instruments issued, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is recognized in the financial statements as the respective awards are earned over the performance period. The Company uses historical data to estimate forfeiture rates.
The impact that share-based payment awards will have on the Company’s results of operations is a function of the number of shares awarded, the trading price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant or modification, the vesting schedule and forfeitures. Furthermore, the application of the Black-Scholes option pricing model employs weighted-average assumptions for expected volatility of the Company’s stock, expected term until exercise of the options, the risk-free interest rate, and dividends, if any, to determine fair value.
Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the Common Stock; the expected term until exercise represents the weighted-average period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and the Company’s historical exercise patterns; and the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the option. The Company has not paid any dividends since its inception and does not anticipate paying any dividends for the foreseeable future, so the dividend yield is assumed to bezero. In addition, the Company estimates forfeitures at each reporting period rather than electing to record the impact of such forfeitures as they occur. See Note 18 – Share-Based Compensation for additional information.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized. The effect of a change in tax rates or laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date of the rate change. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized from operations.
Tax benefits of uncertain tax positions are recognized only if it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to sustain a position taken on an income tax return. The Company hasno liability foruncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2025 and 2024. Interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits would be recognized as income tax expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any significant interest expense recognized during the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash
The Company maintains principally all cash balances in two financial institutions which, at times, may exceed the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The exposure to the Company is solely dependent upon daily bank balances and the strength of the financial institution. The Company has not incurred any losses on these accounts. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, amounts in excess of insured limits were approximately $2,177,000 and $664,000, respectively.
Revenue
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the Company reported revenue of $400,000 in continuing operations from one research collaborator. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Company reported revenue of $225,000 in continuing operations from two research collaborators.
Segment Reporting
The Company operates as one reportable segment, which is that of a preclinical stage biotechnology company leveraging AI and ML for the development of hard-to-drug precision antibodies. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280,Segment Reporting (“Segment Reporting”), the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under Segment Reporting due to their similar customer base and similarities in: economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes. Since the Company operates in one segment, all financial information required by Segment Reporting can be found in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires an entity to assess impairment of its financial instruments based on its estimate of expected credit losses. As the Company is a smaller reporting company, the provisions of ASU 2016-13 and the related amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022 (quarter ending September 30, 2023, for the Company). Entities are required to apply these changes through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”) to update reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. This update is effective beginning with the Company’s 2025 fiscal year annual reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative” (“ASU 2023-06”). This ASU incorporates certain SEC disclosure requirements into the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The amendments in the ASU are expected to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of ASC Topics, allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the requirements, and align the requirements in the ASC with the SEC’s regulations. The
ASU has an unusual effective date and transition requirements since it is contingent on future SEC rule setting. If the SEC fails to enact required changes by June 30, 2027, this ASU is not effective for any entities. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”) to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures, particularly in the rate reconciliation table and disclosures about income taxes paid. This ASU applies to all entities subject to income taxes. This ASU will be effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement: Reporting Comprehensive Income— Expense Disaggregation Disclosures,” which requires more detailed information about specified categories of expenses (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement, as well as disclosures about selling expenses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standard if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
- Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurement
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, subscription receivable, accounts receivable, and accounts payable in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2025 and 2024 due to their short-term nature. The carrying value of the promissory note receivable, term promissory note, equipment financing payable, insurance financing payable and finance lease obligations approximated fair value as of June 30, 2025 and 2024 as the interest rates related to the financial instruments approximated market.
The following provides a description of the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value under the standard, the types of plan investments that fall under each category, and the valuation methodologies used to measure these investments at fair value:
| ● | Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| ● | Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable. |
| ● | Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions). |

The 2024 Term Note provides for monthly payments of principal and interest based on a four-year amortization period, with a balloon payment of all principal, accrued interest and any other amounts due on the two year anniversary of the 2024 Term Note. The Credit and Security Agreement granted to Lender a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets other than any intellectual property related to any of the Company’s filed patents (the “Loeb Collateral”) to secure the Company’s obligations under the 2024 Term Note. The 2024 Term Note is subject to a prepayment fee of:4% of the principal amount being prepaid if the 2024 Term Note is prepaid during the first 12 months from its issuance, and 3% of the principal amount being prepaid if the 2024 Term Note is prepaid during the second 12 months from its issuance date.
The Credit and Security Agreement provides that the Company may request that Lender make further loan advances to the Company subject to certain conditions, including that the Company is not otherwise in default under the Credit and Security Agreement and its obligations and liabilities to Lender do not exceed a borrowing base equal to the lesser of: (a) eighty percent (80.0%) of the forced liquidation value of the Company’s Eligible Equipment as determined by Lender in its sole reasonable discretion, or (b) a monthly dollar amount. The Credit and Security Agreement defines “Eligible Equipment” as equipment that (a) is owned by the Company free of any title defect or any lien or interest of any person except the lien in favor of the Lender; (b) is located at locations permitted by the Credit and Security Agreement; (c) in the Lender’s reasonable opinion, is not obsolete, unsalable, damaged or unfit for further use; (d) is appraised by an appraiser satisfactory to the Lender; (e) complies with any representation or warranty with respect to equipment contained in the Credit and Security Agreement; and (f) is otherwise acceptable to the Lender in its reasonable discretion.
The Company’s obligations to Lender under the 2024 Term Note and Credit Security Agreement are further secured by a validity guarantee, dated January 16, 2024 (the “Validity Guarantee”), executed by Dr. Martin Brenner and Felipe Duran in their individual capacity (the “Indemnitors’) for the benefit of Lender. The Validity Guarantee provides that the Indemnitors will indemnify the Lender from any loss or damage, including any actual, consequential or incidental loss or damage, suffered by Lender as a result of, or arising out of, among other things, any willful or intentional misrepresentation or gross negligence by the Company in connection with the Loan and any acts of fraud, conversion, misappropriation or misapplication of funds or proceeds of any Loeb Collateral by the Company or the Indemnitors.
The Credit and Security Agreement contains customary events of default. If an event of default occurs, the 2024 Term Note provides that regardless of whether the Lender elects to accelerate the maturity of the 2024 Term Note, the entire principal remaining unpaid hereunder shall thereafter bear interest at the rate equal to the Effective Rate plus 6% per annum.
The financing is payable in monthly installments of $30,710 through December 2025 and a balloon payment of $652,060 in January 2026. At June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the balance owed under the financing was approximately $766,000 and $984,000, respectively.

On August 4, 2023, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant towhich, under the terms and subject to the satisfaction of specified conditions set forth therein, the Company could have sold to Lincoln Park up to $10.0 million (subject to certain limitations) of Common Stock, from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement. Additionally, on August 4, 2023, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of August 4, 2023 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), with Lincoln Park, pursuant to which it agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC, to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the resale by Lincoln Park of shares of Common Stock that have been or may be issued and sold by the Company to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement. The Company could not sell any shares of Common Stock to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement unless all of the conditions to Lincoln Park’s purchase obligation set forth in the Purchase Agreement were met, including that the resale registration statement that the Company was required to file with the SEC under the Registration Rights Agreement was declared effective by the SEC and a final prospectus relating thereto was filed with the SEC (the date on which all of such conditions are satisfied, the “Commencement Date”). The registration statement was declared effective on August 11, 2023.
Beginning on the Commencement Date and for a period of up to 24 months thereafter, under the terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, from time to time, at the Company’s discretion, it had the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park was obligated to purchase, up to $10 million of shares of Common Stock, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Specifically, from time to time from and after the Commencement Date, the Company could, at its discretion, on any single business day on which the closing price of the common stock on the NYSE American was equal to or greater than $3.00, by written notice delivered to Lincoln Park, direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to 5,000 shares of Common Stock on such business day, at a purchase price per share determined and fixed in accordance with the Purchase Agreement at the time the Company delivered such written notice to Lincoln Park (each, a “Regular Purchase”); provided, however, that the maximum number of shares the Company could sell to Lincoln Park in a Regular Purchase could be increased to up to (i)7,500 shares, if the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the NYSE American on the applicable purchase date was not below $20.00, and (ii)10,000 shares, if the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the applicable purchase date was not below $40.00; provided, however, that Lincoln Park’s maximum purchase commitment in any single Regular Purchase could not exceed $500,000. The foregoing share amounts and per share prices were to be adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction occurring after the date of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the Common Stock. The purchase price per share of Common Stock sold in each such Regular Purchase, if any, was based on market prices of the Common Stock immediately preceding the time of sale, calculated as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
In addition, provided that the Company had directed Lincoln Park to purchase the maximum amount of shares that it was then able to sell to Lincoln Park in a Regular Purchase on a particular business day on which the closing price of the common stock on the NYSE American was equal to or greater than $4.00, then in addition to such Regular Purchase, the Company could, in its sole discretion, also direct Lincoln Park to purchase additional shares of Common Stock in an “accelerated purchase,” andone or more “additional accelerated purchases” on the business day immediately following the purchase date for such Regular Purchase, as provided in the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price per share of Common Stock sold to Lincoln Park in each accelerated purchase and additional accelerated purchase, if any, would be based on market prices of the Common Stock at the time of sale on the applicable purchase date for such accelerated purchase and such additional accelerated purchase(s), as applicable, calculated as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. There were no upper limits on the price per share that Lincoln Park was to pay for shares of Common Stock in any purchase under the Purchase Agreement.
The Company controlled the timing and amount of any sales of Common Stock to Lincoln Park pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

- Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) allocated to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per common share, the denominator includes both the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and the number of common stock equivalents if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents is dilutive. Dilutive common stock equivalents potentially include stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. The following table summarizes the components of the earnings (loss) per common share calculation (in thousands, except per share amounts):

In fiscal years 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred net losses which cannot be diluted; therefore, basic and diluted loss per common share is the same. As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, shares issuable which could potentially dilute future earnings included were as follows:
| | | | | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| · · June 30, | ||||

| Total | | $— | | $— | ||
The Company has a valuation allowance against the full amount of its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realization of the deferred tax assets due to the operating loss history of the Company. The Company currently provides a valuation allowance against deferred taxes when it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The valuation allowance could be reduced or eliminated based on future earnings and future estimates of taxable income. With a full valuation allowance, any change in the deferred tax asset or liability is fully offset by a corresponding change in the valuation allowance. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company provided a valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets of $63,392,000 and $54,850,000, respectively.
Federal net operating losses of approximately $5.5 million were used by the Former Parent prior to June 30, 2008 and are not available to the Company. The Former Parent allocated the use of the Federal net operating losses available for use on its consolidated Federal tax return on a pro rata basis based on all of the available net operating losses from all the entities included in its control group.
U.S. federal net operating losses of approximately $243.4 million are available to the Company as of June 30, 2025, of which $64 million will expire at various dates through 2039 and $179.4 million with no expiration date. These carryforwards could be subject to certain limitations in the event there is a change in control of the Company pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382, though the Company has not performed a study to determine if the loss carryforwards are subject to these Section 382 limitations. The Company has a research and development credit carryforward of approximately $1.76 million at June 30, 2025. In addition, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards from various states of approximately $70.6 million which expire from 2029 through 2044.
A reconciliation of the statutory tax rate to the effective tax rate is as follows:

The Company has not been audited in connection with income taxes. iBio files federal and state income tax returns subject to varying statutes of limitations. The 2021 through 2024 tax returns generally remain open to examination by federal authorities and by state tax authorities.
The Company believes it is not subject to any tax audit risk beyond those periods. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company doesnot have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest expense incurred during the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 includes a stock buyback excise tax of 1% on share repurchases, which applies to net stock buybacks after December 31, 2022. The Company does not expect this to have a material impact if and when share repurchases occur.

Underwritten Public Offering
On August 19, 2025, the Company entered into the Underwriting Agreement with Leerink, relating to the offering, issuance and sale of the 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 71,540,000 shares of Common Stock and accompanying Series G warrants to purchase (i) an aggregate of up to 35,770,000 shares of Common Stock (or, for those investors who so choose, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 35,770,000 shares of Common Stock in lieu thereof) and (ii) Series H warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 35,770,000 shares of Common Stock (or, for those investors who so choose, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 35,770,000 shares of Common Stock in lieu thereof). The combined public offering price per 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Series G Warrant was $0.699.
Each 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant and the pre-funded warrants issuable upon exercise of the Series G Warrants or Series H Warrants will have an exercise price per share of Common Stock equal to $0.001 and will be immediately exercisable from their date of issuance for one share of Common Stock, subject to certain beneficial ownership and other limitations. The Series G Warrants and Series H Warrants will each be exercisable from their date of issuance and will have an exercise price equal to $0.70 per whole share of Common Stock (or $0.699 per pre-funded warrant) and in the case of the Series G Warrants, the accompanying Series H Warrant. The Series G Warrants will expire on the date that is the earlier of (i) 30 trading days following the Company’s public announcement, via a press release on a nationally recognized news wire or the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), that an Investigational New Drug Application filed with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, a Clinical Trial Notification filed with the applicable foreign governmental body in Australia, a Clinical Trial Application filed with the European Medicines Agency, or an equivalent submission filed with a foreign governmental body to initiate a clinical trial in any other foreign jurisdiction, has been accepted or has otherwise gone into effect, as applicable (such public filing or announcement, the “Trial Initiation Milestone”) and (ii) five years from the date of issuance. In addition, to the extent the proportion of the unexercised portion of the Series G Warrant relative to the originally issued Series G Warrant is greater than the proportion of the unexercised portion of the originally issued 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant relative to the originally issued 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant, each Series G Warrant will immediately expire in proportion to the extent that the corresponding 2025 Pre-Funded Warrant held by a holder is exercised prior to the occurrence of the Trial Initiation Milestone. When issued upon exercise of the Series G Warrants, the Series H Warrants will expire on the four-year anniversary of the closing date of the 2025 Offering. The 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants, Series G Warrants, the Series H Warrants and the pre-funded warrants issuable upon exercise of the Series G Warrants or Series H Warrants are referred to collectively as the “Warrants.”
The Company is prohibited from effecting an exercise of any Warrants to the extent that such exercise would result in the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder and its affiliates exceeding 4.99% (or 9.99% or 19.99% at election of the holder) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), which percentage may be increased or decreased at the holder’s election, not to exceed 19.99%. Any increase to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company.
The closing of the 2025 Offering took place on August 22, 2025. The Company received net proceeds from the 2025 Offering of approximately $46.5 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company in connection with the 2025 Offering. The Company may also receive up to an aggregate of $50 million of additional gross proceeds if the Series G Warrants and Series H Warrants are exercised in full for cash.
Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company and its executive officers and directors have agreed, subject to certain customary exceptions, to certain restrictions on the issuance and sale of its Common Stock and securities convertible into shares of Common Stock during the 90-day period following the pricing of the 2025 Offering.
