Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

  1. Organization and Nature of Business

Description of Business

BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc. (“we”, “our” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada in February 2020. BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc. is the parent company of BullFrog AI, Inc. and BullFrog AI Management, LLC, which were incorporated in Delaware and Maryland, in 2017 and 2021, respectively. All the Company’s operations are currently conducted through BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc., which began operations in February 2020. The Company is focused specifically on advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning (“AI/ML”) driven analysis of complex data sets in medicine and healthcare. The Company’s objective is to utilize its AI/ML platform to provide a precision medicine approach to drug asset enablement through external partnerships and selective internal development.

Most new therapeutics will fail at some point in preclinical or clinical development. These failures are a primary driver for the high cost of developing new therapeutics. A major challenge in developing new therapeutics is efficiently integrating the complex, high-dimensional data generated at each stage of development to help de-risk subsequent stages of the process. AI/ML have emerged as a digital solution to help address this problem.

The Company uses AI/ML to advance medicines largely for external projects, although it has also done so, and may in the future do so, for internal projects. Currently, most AI/ML platforms still fall short in their ability to synthesize disparate, high-dimensional data for actionable insight. The Company’s analytical platform is composed of an ensemble of state-of-the-art machine learning and artificial intelligence models. The Company’s core platform technology, bfLEAP™, is an analytical AI/ML platform developed at The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (“JHU-APL”), which the Company believes is able to surmount the challenges of scalability and flexibility currently hindering researchers and clinicians by providing a more precise, multi-dimensional understanding of their data. The Company is deploying its analytical platform, including bfLEAP™, to customers through strategic partnerships and collaborations with the intention of streamlining data analytics in therapeutics development, decreasing the overall development costs by decreasing failure rates for new therapeutics, and impacting the lives of countless patients that may otherwise not receive the therapies they need.

The proprietary analytical platform utilizes both supervised and unsupervised machine learning. As such, it can reveal real and meaningful connections in the data without the need fora priori hypothesis. Algorithms used in the platform are designed to handle highly imbalanced data sets and successfully identify combinations of factors that are associated with outcomes of interest. The Company’s platform leverages models that use both correlative and causative machine learning and artificial intelligence approaches which provide a comprehensive approach to predictive analysis that is expected to lead to meaningful insights including the molecular drivers of disease. In this regard, the Company continues to advance its internal target discovery initiatives through access to proprietary datasets, including those available under its strategic data and commercialization agreements with the Lieber Institute for Brain Development (“LIBD”).

The Company’s goal is to improve the odds of success at all stages of pre-clinical and clinical development for in-house programs and for its strategic partners, collaborators, and customers. The Company’s business model includes supporting clinical trial optimization efforts for ongoing studies and rescuing late stage failed drugs (i.e., Phase 2 or Phase 3 clinical trial failures) by bringing them in-house for development prior to eventual divestiture; although, the Company also considers entering collaborations for earlier stage drugs. The Company pursues its drug asset enhancement business by leveraging the powerful and proven bfLEAP™ AI/ML platform. The Company believes the bfLEAP™ analytics platform is a potentially disruptive tool for analysis of pre-clinical and clinical data sets, such as the robust pre-clinical and clinical trial datasets being generated in translational R&D and clinical trial settings.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company has generated negative cash flows from operations and operated at a net loss since inception. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has a cash balance of approximately $7.0 million, which includes restricted cash of $0.1 million held by a financial institution as collateral for the Company’s corporate credit card program. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company received net cash proceeds of approximately $2.0 million from the sale of its common stock pursuant to the Company’s At-The-Market Sales Agreement with BTIG, LLC (the “ATM Agreement”). Also, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company sold common stock for net cash proceeds of approximately $5.8 million under the Company’s equity line of credit facility pursuant to its purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (the “ELOC Facility”).

As of June 30, 2026, the Company's cash and cash equivalents position is not sufficient to fund the Company's planned operations for at least a year beyond the filing date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. This factor as well as other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company obtaining the necessary financing or revenues to meet its obligations arising from normal business operations when they become due.

Accordingly, the Company will require additional capital to continue to execute its strategy. The Company anticipates securing this additional capital through various avenues, including revenues earned from the performance services, licensing agreements and commercial collaborations within its operating business as well as the sale of equity securities or entry into debt transactions. Although management believes that such funding sources will be available, including pursuant to the ATM Agreement and ELOC Facility, there can be no assurance that any such arrangements will provide sufficient capital when needed to allow the Company to continue its operations, or if available, be on terms acceptable to it. If the Company does not raise sufficient funds in a timely manner, among other things, it may be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its research and product development programs and capital expenditures or enter into arrangements on unfavorable terms. The Company does not currently have commitments for future funding from any source other than those noted above. Furthermore, the issuance of additional equity securities may be significantly dilutive to the Company’s current shareholders.

On August 21, 2025, the Company received a letter from the listing staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company was no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Stockholders’ Equity Rule”). The Stockholders’ Equity Rule requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000 or to meet alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations, which the Company did not meet on the date of the notice. On October 7, 2025, Nasdaq granted the Company an extension until February 17, 2026, to comply with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). The Company subsequently attended a hearing with an independent Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) on March 31, 2026, pursuant to which the Company presented its plans to regain and maintain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Rule. As a result of sales of its common stock under the Company's ATM Agreement and ELOC Facility, which resulted in aggregate net proceeds of at least $3.45 million, the Company believed it had stockholders’ equity of more than $2.5 million in compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement and, as such, filed Form 8-K on April 1, 2026, stating as much. Subsequently, on April 21, 2026, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it had regained compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Rule as of such date. The letter stated that the Company will be subject to a mandatory panel monitor for a period of one year commencing April 21, 2026. If, within the one-year monitoring period, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff finds the Company out of compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Rule, the Company will not be permitted additional time to regain compliance. However, in such case, the Company will have an opportunity to request a new hearing with the Nasdaq Hearings Panel prior to the Company’s securities being delisted from Nasdaq.

On February 10, 2026, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that, for the prior 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), was below $1.00 per share, which is the minimum closing bid price required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Notice”). The Bid Price Notice had no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Common Stock and tradeable warrants. As such, the Company’s Common Stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BFRG,” and its tradeable warrants will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BFRGW.” In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company is provided a compliance period of 180-calendar days from the date of the Bid Price Notice, or until August 10, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time during the 180-calendar day grace period, the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock is at least $1.00 per share for a minimum often consecutive business days (unless the Nasdaq staff exercises its discretion to extend thisten business day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(H)), Nasdaq will provide the Company written confirmation of compliance, and the matter will be closed. If the Company does not regain compliance during the initial 180-calendar day compliance period, the Company may be provided a second 180-calendar day period to regain compliance. On July 30, 2026, the Company sent a letter to Nasdaq requesting an extension of 180-calendar day grace period to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted compliance periods, including any extensions that may be granted by Nasdaq, the Company’s listed securities will be subject to delisting. The Company would thereafter have the right to appeal a determination to delist the Company’s securities, and the Company’s securities would remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market until the completion of the appeal process. While the Company plans to review all available options, including, if necessary, effecting a reverse stock split, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the compliance period, secure a second 180-day period to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, or maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements. Notably, at a Special Meeting of Stockholders in October 2025, we received stockholder approval to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio of not less than 1-to-2 and not more than 1-to-15, such ratio and timing to be determined in the discretion of our Board of Directors. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its Common Stock and assess potential options to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rules, including, if necessary, effecting a reverse stock split.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

  1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Other than as noted below, the Company’s significant accounting policies as disclosed in the notes to its audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 have not materially changed during the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company currently operates inone operating segment. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for the chief operating decision maker, our CEO, in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. The Company views its operations and manages its business inone segment focused on advancing drug development using AI/ML to analyze complex data sets in medicine and healthcare.

The condensed consolidated statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 19, 2026. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited annual consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to fairly state its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

The results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or any other future period.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, and Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company considers cash to consist of cash on hand and temporary investments having an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible into cash.

Restricted cash represents cash balances that are legally or contractually restricted as to withdrawal or usage. These amounts are not available for general operating purposes and are maintained in separate accounts or otherwise designated for specific uses.

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to a concentration of credit risk are cash and accounts receivable. Occasionally, the Company’s cash in interest-bearing accounts may exceed FDIC insurance limits. The financial stability of these institutions is periodically reviewed by senior management.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows:

June 30,2026December 31,2025
Cash and cash equivalents$6,918,141$2,183,705
Restricted cash105,000105,000
Total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash in the consolidated statements of cash flows$7,023,141$2,288,705

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Standards or Updates Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 which requires entities to disclose additional information about federal, state, and foreign income taxes primarily related to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The new standard also eliminates certain existing disclosure requirements related to uncertain tax positions and unrecognized deferred tax liabilities. The Company adopted this guidance in 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not result in a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05 which amends Topic 326. Specifically, the ASU provides a practical expedient whereby an entity can assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the asset (e.g., the accounts receivable). This guidance is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 and can be adopted early. The Company adopted this guidance in January 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not result in a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

New Accounting Standards or Updates Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03. Specifically, the ASU requires more detailed disclosures about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions such as cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses. These details include separate footnote disclosures for expenses such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The ASU’s amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Companies are required to apply the guidance prospectively and may apply it retrospectively. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effects of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-07, which, among other things, provides scope clarification for share-based non-cash consideration from a customer in a revenue contract. Specifically, the ASU clarifies that share-based payments from customers in exchange for the transfer of goods or services should be accounted for as non-cash consideration within the scope of ASC 606 as opposed to as a derivative pursuant to ASC 815 or as an equity security pursuant to ASC 321. This guidance is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2027 and can be adopted early. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effects of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company does not believe that any other recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

  1. Investments

The Company’s sole investment is in the form of equity securities in a single private entity, Eleison Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Eleison”). The Company entered into a strategic collaboration agreement with Eleison and received such equity securities as remuneration for services rendered. The investment is initially valued at $116,670 (see Note 4). The Company has elected the measurement alternative and, accordingly, the investment is carried at its estimated fair value calculated as its cost less any impairment charges until such time as there is evidence of an orderly transaction. As of June 30, 2026, no fair value adjustments have been recognized, nor have there been any impairment charges. This investment is considered a financial asset that is measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

  1. Revenue

During 2025, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement with Eleison, for contract services. The collaboration agreement, which was entered into in February 2025 and designed to enhance clinical trial efficacy, extract actionable insights from historical and ongoing data and improve strategic planning for Eleison’s oncology pipeline, was deemed to have multiple deliverables with revenue to be recognized at the time each deliverable was completed. In exchange for the services provided, the Company was entitled to consideration in the form of cash or equity securities of the customer or any combination at the customer’s sole discretion. The Company received the initial payment in the second quarter of 2025, representing 50% of the total consideration, in the form of equity securities (see Note 3) of the customer valued at $58,335. The remaining consideration, also valued at $58,335, was received in the form of equity securities of the customer following completion of the final deliverable in the third quarter of 2025. The Company allocated the total proceeds to each of the separate deliverables on a relative basis based on the estimated stand-alone selling price of each deliverable. All deliverables were completed in the year ended December 31, 2025 and, consequently, the Company recognized $116,670 of revenue at the point in time that each deliverable was completed.

In June 2025, the Company entered into a strategic collaboration with Sygnature Discovery (“Sygnature”), a UK-based contract research organization specializing in drug discovery. Under this collaboration, Sygnature will introduce BullFrog Data Networks™, the Company’s proprietary AI-driven data insights platform powered by the bfLEAP™ engine, to Sygnature’s global biopharma client base. Any commercial terms for the marketing collaboration will be agreed by the parties in a subsequent agreement. The Company has not yet recognized any revenue under this collaboration.

In March 2026, the Company entered into a feasibility agreement with a global pharmaceutical company (the “Client”). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company will apply its proprietary methodology and AI/ML learning tool, bfLEAP®, to discover and provide the Client with prioritized drug target candidates, associated causal gene networks with target near-neighbors unblinded, and target dossiers for advancement-ready drug candidates for major depressive disorder (MDD). The agreement will remain in full force and effect forone year from its execution. The agreement provides for the Company to complete certain performance milestones and the Client has the option to receive the exclusive right to use a selected “final target” drug candidate for its research and development purposes. The Company determined that each deliverable constitutes a distinct performance obligation under ASC 606, with revenue recognized at the point in time the relevant deliverable is satisfied and allocated the total proceeds to each of the separate deliverables on a relative basis based on the estimated stand-alone selling price of each deliverable. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company completed the first deliverable and recognized $215,385 of collaboration revenue. As of June 30, 2026, the earned but unpaid milestone payment has been recorded as accrued revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

  1. Notes Payable

In February 2025, the Company entered into an agreement to finance a portion of the premium for its directors and officers insurance policy for the policy period of February 2025 through February 2026. The agreement provided for financing of $181,797 of the premium, repayments in 10 equal monthly installments of $18,743 each through December 2025 and accrued interest at 6.70%. The note was repaid in its entirety in 2025.

In February 2026, the Company again entered into an agreement to finance a portion of the premium for its directors and officers insurance policy for the policy period of February 2026 through February 2027. The agreement provides for financing of $148,277 of the premium, repayments in 10 equal monthly installments of $15,373 each through December 2026 and accrues interest at 7.95%. As of June 30, 2026, the balance outstanding on this note was $90,138.

  1. Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock

The Company has 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized at a par value of $0.00001 with 5,500,000 being designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Of the 5,500,000 authorized shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,73,449 were issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2026. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible at any time into 10 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Series A Preferred Stock is the economic equivalent of the Company’s common stock but has no voting rights and is subject to a blocker which prohibits the conversion into common stock if it would result in the investor owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock at such time.

Common Stock

The Company has 100,000,000 shares of common stock authorized at a par value of $0.00001.

In the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company issued 302,386 shares of common stock upon the cashless exercise of prefunded warrants originally issued in a registered direct offering completed in October 2024. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the exercise of the prefunded warrants.

In April 2025, the Company entered into the ATM Agreement with BTIG, LLC (“BTIG”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time in its sole discretion, shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of $20.0 million through BTIG, as the Company’s sales agent. The Company is not obligated to make any sales of common stock under the ATM Agreement, and BTIG is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of shares. Subject to the Company’s request to sell shares of common stock, BTIG will use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, to sell such shares on the Company’s behalf. The Company will pay BTIG a commission of 3% of the gross sales price of any shares of common stock sold through BTIG under the ATM Agreement and will reimburse BTIG for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by BTIG, including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel to BTIG, subject to specified caps.

Pursuant to the Company’s ATM Agreement, through June 30, 2026, the Company received an aggregate amount of approximately $4.8 million of gross proceeds from the sale of 3,946,875 shares of the Company’s common stock at an average price of approximately $1.22 per share. In connection with these sales, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $366,000, of which $80,000 remains unpaid at June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, approximately $15.0 million of capacity remains available under the ATM Agreement; however, the amount the Company is permitted to raise in any 12-month period is limited based on its public float pursuant to SEC General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2026, the Company cannot complete additional common stock sales due to this limitation. This amount is subject to adjustment based on increases in the Company’s public float and fluctuations in the Company’s stock price.

In September 2025, the Company entered into an ELOC Facility pursuant to a purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which Lincoln Park committed to purchase up to $10.0 million of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain limitations. The Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park is obligated to purchase up to $10.0 million of the Company’s common stock. Such sales of common stock by the Company, if any, are subject to certain limitations set forth in the purchase agreement, and may occur from time to time, at the Company’s sole discretion, over the 36-month period commencing on November 25, 2025, the date that the conditions to Lincoln Park’s purchase obligation set forth in the purchase agreement were satisfied. In connection with this agreement, in September 2025, the Company issued 147,682 shares of common stock valued at approximately $207,000 to Lincoln Park as a fee in advance of any sales pursuant to this ELOC Facility. Through June 30, 2026, the Company sold 4,852,318 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $5.9 million at an average price of approximately $1.21 per share. In connection with these sales, the Company incurred expenses of approximately $93,000 and non-cash expenses related to the commitment share issuance of approximately $207,000. As of June 30, 2026, approximately $4.1 million of capacity remains available under the ELOC Facility.

Dilutive securities are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect is anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2026,73,449 shares of preferred stock,6,921,612 warrants,969,334 options for shares of common stock, and 303,251 unvested RSUs were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share. As of June 30, 2025,73,449 shares of preferred stock,6,935,042 warrants and 938,927 options for shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share. For each of thethree and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025,274,286 pre-funded warrants issued in 2020 as consideration for services were included in the calculation of net loss per common share.

2022 Equity Incentive Plan

In November 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted, and its shareholders approved, the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the granting of equity-based awards to employees, directors, and consultants. The Plan provides for equity-based awards including incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance share awards, cash awards and other equity-based awards. Awards are limited to a maximum term of 10 years, and any exercise prices shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of one share of common stock on the grant date. The Plan authorized an initial maximum number of shares underlying awards of 900,000 with an automatic annual increase to an amount equal to 15% of the total number of shares outstanding as of the end of the preceding fiscal year. In October 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan by 750,000. As of June 30, 2026, there are 1,005,890 awards authorized but unissued available under the Plan.

The fair value of options granted during thesix months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the assumptions in the table below:

Six Months Ended June 30,
20262025
Expected dividend yield0%0%
Expected volatility95% - 96%94% - 96%
Risk-free interest rate3.7%4.0% - 4.5%
Expected life (in years)5.5 - 6.05.5

Dividend yield – The Company does not expect to pay a dividend in the foreseeable future.

Volatility – The trading volatility was determined by calculating the volatility of the Company’s peer group.

Risk-free interest rate – This is the U.S. Treasury rate, having a term comparable to the expected life of the stock option.

Expected life of options – The expected life of options granted to employees was determined using the simplified method.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $0.52 and $1.67, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized $61,341 and $137,306, respectively, of compensation expense related to stock options.

  1. Material Agreements

JHU-APL Technology License

In February 2018, the Company entered into an exclusive, world-wide, royalty-bearing license with JHU-APL (the “2018 License Agreement”). The license covers three (3) issued patents, one (1) new provisional patent application, non-patent rights to proprietary libraries of algorithms and other trade secrets, as well as modifications and improvements. In October 2021, the Company executed an amendment to the original license for improvements and new advanced analytics capabilities. In consideration of the rights granted to the Company under the 2018 License Agreement, JHU-APL received a warrant equal to five percent (5%) of the then fully diluted equity base of the Company, which was diluted following the closing of the Company’s initial public offering and subsequent financings.

In July 2022, the Company entered into an exclusive, world-wide, royalty-bearing license from JHU-APL for the additional technology developed to enhance the bfLEAP™ platform (the “2022 License Agreement”). The new license provides additional intellectual property rights including patents, copyrights, and know-how to be utilized under the Company’s bfLEAP™ analytical AI/ML platform. This 2022 License Agreement supersedes the previous 2018 License Agreement. In consideration for entering into the new license, the Company issued 39,879 shares of common stock to JHU-APL. Under the terms of the 2022 License Agreement, JHU-APL will be entitled to eight percent (8%) of net sales for the services provided by the Company to other parties and three percent (3%) for internally developed drug projects in which the JHU-APL license is utilized. The new license also contains tiered sub licensing fees that start at 50% and decline to 25% based on revenues. In addition, under the 2022 License Agreement, the minimum annual royalty payments are $30,000 for 2022, $80,000 for 2023, and $300,000 per year for 2024 and beyond, all of which are creditable by royalties. If cumulative annual royalty payments do not reach these levels, the amount due to JHU-APL to reach the annual minimum is due by January 1 st of the following year. Failure to make annual royalty payments is considered a material breach under the agreement and, upon notice from JHU-APL of a material breach, the Company will have 60 days to cure the material breach. The financial terms of the new license agreement replace the original terms within the 2018 License Agreement and are not duplicative.

In May 2023, the Company and JHU-APL entered into Amendment Number 1 of the 2022 License Agreement whereby the Company gained access to certain improvements including additional patents and know-how in exchange for a series of payments totaling $275,000. The first of these payments for $75,000 was paid in July 2023, the second of these payments for $75,000 was paid in June 2025, and the remaining payments of $75,000 and $50,000 are due in 2026 and 2027, respectively. The amendment also reduced the 2023 minimum annual royalty payment from $80,000 to $60,000; all other financial terms remained the same.

As of June 30, 2026, all minimum annual royalty payments through 2025 have been paid, the Company has accrued $150,000 of the $300,000 minimum annual royalty for 2026, and the Company has accrued $4,167 of the $75,000 annual license fee due in June 2027. The Company assessed whether the license should be capitalized and determined that the licensed program is in the early stage and therefore may not be recoverable. The Company expensed the license fee and will expense development costs until commercial viability is likely.

George Washington University - Beta2-spectrin siRNA License

In January 2022, the Company entered into an exclusive, world-wide, royalty-bearing license from George Washington University (“GWU”) for rights to use siRNA targeting Beta2-spectrin in the treatment of human diseases, including hepatocellular carcinoma. The license covers methods claimed inthree U.S. and worldwide patent applications, and also includes use of this approach for treatment of obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

In consideration of the rights granted to the Company under the license agreement, the Company paid GWU a $20,000 license initiation fee in 2022. Under the terms of the license agreement, GWU will be entitled to a three percent (3%) royalty on net sales subject to quarterly minimums once the first sale has occurred subsequent to regulatory approval, as well as sublicense or assignment fees in the event the Company sublicenses or assigns their rights to use the technology. The Company will also reimburse GWU for previously incurred and ongoing patent costs. The sublicense and assignment fees decline as the Company advances the clinical development of the licensed technology. The license agreement also contains milestone payments for clinical development through the approval of a new drug application (“NDA”) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and commercialization. As of June 30, 2026, there has been no accrual for royalties since the Company has not begun to generate applicable revenue; however, the Company has accrued $10,000 of the $20,000 license maintenance fees for 2026. The Company assessed whether the license should be capitalized and determined that the licensed program is in the early stage and therefore may not be recoverable. The Company expensed the license fee and will expense development costs until commercial viability is likely.

Johns Hopkins University – Mebendazole License

In February 2022, the Company entered into an exclusive, world-wide, royalty-bearing license from Johns Hopkins University (“JHU”) for the use of an improved formulation of Mebendazole for the treatment of any human cancer or neoplastic disease. This formulation shows potent activity in animal models with different types of cancer and has been evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with high-grade glioma (NCT01729260). The trial, an open-label dose-escalation study, assessed the safety and efficacy of the improved formulation with adjuvant temozolomide in 24 patients with newly diagnosed gliomas. Investigators observed no dose-limiting toxicity in patients receiving all but the highest tested dose (200mg/kg/day). Four of the 15 patients receiving the maximum tested dose of 200mg/kg/day experienced dose-limiting toxicity, all of which were reversed by decreasing or eliminating the dose given. There were no serious adverse events attributed to Mebendazole at any dose during the trial.41.7% of patients who received Mebendazole were alive attwo years after enrollment, and 25% were alive atfour years (Gallia et al., 2021).

The license coverssix (6) issued patents andone (1) pending application. In consideration of the rights granted to the Company under the license agreement, JHU received a staggered upfront license fee of $250,000, with $50,000 paid in 2022 and the remaining balance of $200,000 paid in 2023. The Company will also reimburse JHU for previously incurred and ongoing patent costs. Under the terms of the license agreement, JHU will be entitled to three and one-half percent (3.5%) royalty on net sales by the Company in which the JHU license was utilized. In addition, the Company is required to pay JHU minimum annual royalty payments of $5,000 for 2022, $10,000 for 2023, $20,000 for 2024, $30,000 for 2025 and $50,000 for 2026 and each year after until the first commercial sale, after which the annual minimum royalty shall be $250,000. The license agreement also contains milestone payments for clinical development steps through the approval of an NDA and commercialization. As of June 30, 2026, the accrued expense balance related to this license agreement was $25,000 of the $50,000 minimum annual royalty for 2026. The Company assessed whether the license should be capitalized and determined that the licensed program is in the early stage and therefore may not be recoverable. The Company expensed the license fee and will expense development costs until commercial viability is likely.

Johns Hopkins University – Prodrug License

In October 2022, the Company entered into an exclusive, world-wide, royalty-bearing license from JHU and the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry (“IOCB”) of the Czech Academy of Sciences for rights to commercialize N-substituted prodrugs of Mebendazole that demonstrate improved solubility and bioavailability. The license covers prodrug compositions and use for treating disease as claimed in multiple U.S. and worldwide patent applications. In consideration for the rights granted to the Company under the license agreement, JHU and IOCB received a staggered upfront license fee of $100,000 and the Company reimbursed JHU and IOCB for previously incurred patent costs. Under the terms of the license agreement, JHU and IOCB will be entitled to a four percent (4.0%) royalty on net sales by the Company in which the JHU and IOCB license was utilized. In addition, the Company is required to pay JHU and IOCB minimum annual royalty payments of $5,000 for 2026, $10,000 for 2027, $20,000 for 2028, $30,000 for 2029 and $50,000 for 2030 and each year after until the first commercial sale, after which, the annual minimum royalty shall be $150,000. The license agreement also contains milestone payments for patent grants, clinical development steps through the approval of an NDA and commercialization. As of June 30, 2026, the balance of accrued expense related to this license agreement was $2,500 of the $5,000 minimum annual royalty for 2026. The Company assessed whether the license should be capitalized and determined that the licensed program is in the early stage and therefore may not be recoverable. The Company will expense the license fee and development costs until commercial viability is likely.

Lieber Institute for Brain Development Partnership

In September 2023, the Company entered into a Data Use and Technology Partnership Agreement (the “Data Use Agreement”) and a related Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the Lieber Institute for Brain Development (“LIBD”), a nonprofit medical research organization focused on mental health disorders. The partnership is intended to combine LIBD’s proprietary brain-related datasets with the Company’s AI/ML capabilities to support drug discovery and development activities.

Under the Data Use Agreement, LIBD granted the Company a limited, royalty-free, non-transferable license to access and use certain curated LIBD datasets solely for the application of AI/ML to drug development, excluding diagnostic uses. The license was exclusive for an initialone-year term beginning upon receipt of the first significant tranche of data and was subsequently extended. The Company is responsible for all costs associated with the development plan and is required to provide LIBD with the resulting deliverables upon completion of the exclusivity period.

Pursuant to the MOU, the Company entered into a commercial agreement with LIBD governing the potential commercialization of products or services derived from LIBD data. Under the proposed structure, LIBD would receive royalties on net sales and a percentage of sublicense revenue, with rates varying based on the source of commercialization. The Company has also agreed to provide LIBD with any such products or services free of charge for LIBD’s internal research use. As of June 30, 2026, the balance of accrued expense for this partnership agreement was approximately $36,000 for estimated royalty fees resulting from revenue recognized during the period.
