Current report

We operate a commercial biocosmeceutical platform. Our current commercial product, formulated and manufactured as a third party contract manufacturer using our cGMP ISO-7 certified clean room, is a cell-based secretome containing exosomes, proteins and growth factors. This proprietary biologic serum has been specifically engineered by us to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and bring forth other areas of cosmetic effectiveness. Moving forward, we also intend to explore the potential of expanding our commercial offering to include a broader family of cell-based biologic aesthetic products and therapeutics via IND-enabling studies, with the aim of pioneering FDA approvals in the emerging biocosmeceuticals space.

Current report

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized a gain on exchange of $1,711,698 related to the issuance of warrants and common stock in exchange for the cancellation of existing warrants.

Current report

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized a gain on the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $97,188 related to the reduction in the fair value of the warrants that are accounted for as warrant liabilities. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized a gain on the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $3,997,780 related to the reduction in the fair value of the warrants that are accounted for as warrant liabilities.

Current report

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we had a net loss of $9.0 million and negative cash flows from operations of $8.2 million and as of December 31, 2024, we had working capital of $7.4 million. We anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses and negative cash flows from operations as we execute our development plans for 2025 and beyond, as well as other potential strategic and business development initiatives. Based on these conditions, we believe we may not have sufficient cash for at least twelve months after the issuance date of the financial statements included in this Annual Report which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Previous report

We are seeking to develop a biologics-based cosmetic products business. Pursuant to such business, we would manufacture and sell cosmetics and hair growth products designed for cosmetic and aesthetic uses.

Previous report

In November 2021, we completed a $23,000,000 underwritten public offering of units of securities pursuant to which an aggregate of 2,300,000 shares of our common stock and warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 2,645,000 shares of our common stock were issued. We are using the net proceeds from the offering as follows: (i) undertaking of clinical trials with respect toBRTX-100 and its related collection and delivery procedure; (ii) pre-clinical research and development with respect to ourThermoStem Program; and (iii) general corporate and working capital purposes. In connection with the public offering, our common stock was listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Previous report

In November 2021, concurrently with the consummation of the public offering, we issued an aggregate of 313,789 shares of our common stock, 1,543,158 shares of our Series A preferred stock and warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 1,856,938 shares of our common stock in exchange for convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $10,046,897, together with accrued interest thereon, and warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 3,677,997 shares of our common stock. Such indebtedness and warrants were exchanged at a price of $10.00 per unit of securities, consistent with the public offering price of our units of common stock and warrants. The newly issued warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $10.00 per share. In September 2022, the 1,543,158 shares of Series A preferred stock were exchanged for an equal number of shares of Series B preferred stock. As of March 28, 2024, there were 1,398,158 shares of Series B preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Previous report

Under the terms of the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program, or PPP, our $250,000 PPP loan was forgiven during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Previous report

Based upon our accumulated deficit of $167,056,381 as of December 31, 2023, along with our forecast for continued operating losses and our need for financing to fund our contemplated clinical trials, as of such date, we require additional equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations. However, based on cash on hand and investments as of December 31, 2023 and the receipt of approximately $8,100,000 in gross proceeds in February 2024 pursuant to the warrant exercises discussed below, management believes that we have sufficient cash to fund operations for the twelve months from the issuance of the financial statements included in this Annual Report.

Previous wording

The net proceeds received from our November 2021 public offering, the ATM program and the registered direct offering are sufficient for us to complete our Phase 2 clinical trial with regard toBRTX-100; however, we will require significant additional funding to complete our contemplated Phase 3BRTX-100 clinical trial (assuming the receipt of no revenues).
