Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 –Organization and Description of Business

Jupiter Neurosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) is a clinical stage research and development pharmaceutical company located in Jupiter, Florida. The Company incorporated in Delaware in January 2016. The Company has developed a unique resveratrol platform product primarily targeting treatment of neuro-inflammation. The product candidate, called JOTROL, has many potential indications of use for rare diseases. We are primarily targeting Mucopolysaccharidoses Type 1, Friedreich’s Ataxia, and MELAS. In the larger disease areas, we are primarily targeting Parkinson’s Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment/early Alzheimer’s disease.

JOTROL has the potential to deliver a therapeutically effective dose of resveratrol in the blood stream, using a unique patented micellar formulation, without causing gastrointestinal side effects. We expect JOTROL, based on the results of our Phase I study, will resolve the major obstacle of resveratrol’s poor bioavailability, which has been documented in various scientific articles describing previously conducted human trials with resveratrol as well as preclinical trial results in mice and rats.

The Company’s activities and operations include a project funded by the U.S. National Institute on Aging, an institute of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (“NIH”): Safety and Pharmacokinetics of JOTROL for Alzheimer’s Disease, Federal Award Identification Number R44AG067907-01A1 (the “Award”). The project encompassed a Phase 1 dose finding pharmacokinetics (“PK”) study which was completed before December 31, 2021. The award end date was May 31, 2022. This Phase 1 PK study will be homogeneous for all indications where JOTROL will be used in Phase II and Phase III clinical trials.

Initial Public Offering

In December 2024, the Company’s sold 2,750,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”) at a price of $4.00 per share for gross proceeds of $11 million before underwriting discounts and other related expenses in a registered initial public offering (the “IPO”). In connection with the Public Offering, the Company’s common stock was registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and began trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “JUNS.”

March 31, 2024

Note 2 –Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation and Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). U.S GAAP contemplates the continuation of the Company as a going concern. Since inception, the Company hadno revenues from product sales and incurred a net loss of $1,528,867 and $634,100 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Net cash used in operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $1,063,041 and $65,165, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital surplus and accumulated deficit of $1,721,604 and $27,550,996, respectively.

The Company plans to finance future operations with proceeds from equity securities, grant awards and strategic collaborations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to affect transactions on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. In management’s opinion, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date of this report.

Business Segment

Business segments are identified as components of an enterprise for which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and relied upon when making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. When evaluating the Company’s financial performance, the CODM reviews total revenues, total expenses, and expenses by functional classification, using this information to make decisions on a company-wide basis. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one operating segment.

Use of Estimates

Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and those estimates may be material.

Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions, which include both quantitative and qualitative assessments that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Significant estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, include valuation of stock-based compensation, uncertain tax positions, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments that have maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company invested a portion of cash balances in a high yield savings account, which are included as cash equivalents on the balance sheets. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the cash balances exceed the FDIC limit of $250,000 by $2,456,469 and $3,519,510, respectively.

Prepaid Contracts

Prepaid contracts represent service agreements which the Company will receive services over a period of time and are expensed as the services are received. The Company’s prepaid contracts are related to service agreements that span over three years, over which time the expense will be recognized. See further discussion in Note 6 - Stockholders’ Equity.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Costs for certain development activities, such as clinical trials, are recognized based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using data such as subject enrollment, monitoring visits, clinical site activations, or information provided to us by our vendors with respect to their actual costs incurred. Payments for these activities are based on the terms of the individual arrangements, which may differ from the pattern of costs incurred, and are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements as prepaid or accrued research and development expense, as the case may be.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities and the expected benefits of net operating loss carryforwards. The impact of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred taxes, if any, applied during the years in which temporary differences are expected to be settled, is reflected in the financial statements in the period of enactment. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, if, based on weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company concluded that a full valuation allowance is necessary for the net deferred tax assets.

Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share includes the effect, if any, from the potential exercise or conversion of securities, which would result in the issuance of incremental shares of common stock, using the treasury method.

The following table summarizes outstanding instruments which were not included in the computation of diluted EPS as to do so would have been antidilutive:

March 31, 2025December 31, 2024
Common stock options10,633,98810,566,488
Unvested restricted stock-1,626,037
Warrants1,359,3751,359,375
Total11,993,36313,551,900

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes expense related to the grant date fair value of stock-based awards in the statements of operations. For stock options issued to employees, non-employees and members of our board of directors, the Company estimates the grant-date fair value of options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management to make assumptions with respect to the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the common stock consistent with the expected life of the option, risk-free interest rates, and, for grants prior to our initial public offering, the value of the common stock. For awards subject to time-based vesting, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting term of the award.

Clinical Trial Expenses

In preparing financial statements, the Company estimates clinical trial-related expenses based on contracts with vendors, clinical sites, and consultants. Because payment timing often differs from service delivery, the Company records expenses according to actual service performance and trial progression, using discussions with internal staff and external providers. Estimates are periodically adjusted as actual results become known. Accurate accruals depend on timely reporting from third-party vendors, and differences between estimated and actual expenses, though not expected to be significant, may occur.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with US GAAP. For certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Amounts recorded for notes payable, net of discount, and loans payable also approximate fair value because current interest rates available for debt with similar terms and maturities are substantially the same.

The Company follows accounting guidance for financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost).

The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into six broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.

See Note 5 - Convertible Debt and Derivative Liability.

Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings.

Convertible Notes with Embedded Derivative Liabilities

The Company previously entered into convertible notes payable, some of which contained variable conversion options, whereby the outstanding principle and accrued interest could be converted, by the holder, into shares of common stock at a fixed discount to the price of the common stock at or around the time of conversion upon certain trigger events. The Company evaluated all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualified as derivatives to be separately accounted. There were no such liabilities at March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024. See further discussion in Note 5 - Convertible Debt and Derivative Liability.

Leases

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate at lease inception in order to determine the present value of future minimum lease payments over the expected term of the lease after taking into account the likelihood of renewals and extensions. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 3 –Related Party Transactions

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has loaned the Company working capital since inception. The balance of the loan payable to the CEO totaled $146,432 at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The balance is due on demand and accrues interest at 3% per year. Accrued interest relating to the loan was $2,147 and $1,064 as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and is included in accrued interest on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Note 3 – Related Party Transactions, continued

On March 15, 2024, a former executive agreed to forgive $100,000 of accrued compensation in exchange for 49,605 options to purchase common stock and 7,500 restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The options to purchase common stock have a strike price of $1.33 and together with the RSUs had a grant date fair value of $60,000. Accordingly, the Company recorded a gain on the forgiveness of accrued compensation in the amount of $40,000.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2023, $84,105 and $64,105, respectively, was due to a company wholly owned by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The amount is included in accrued compensation on the Company’s balance sheets.

Note 4 –Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses

Accounts payable and accrued expenses consisted of the following:

March 31, 2025December 31, 2024
Accounts payable$158,483$278,676
Professional fees103,59040,271
License fee18,75075,000
Credit cards2,1082,536
Total accounts payable and accrued expenses$282,931$396,483

Accrued compensation of $1,407,658 and $1,415,093 as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, includes accrued salaries and health benefits to executives since inception and as well as board fees. Since inception, executive salaries have been paid in cash when the Company’s cash flow has permitted such payment. Prior to the IPO, in order to conserve cash, certain executives agreed to defer payments for compensation all of which was accrued. During December 2024, the Company returned to paying compensation to the executives upon the completion of the initial public offering. The Company will continue to make payments related to the accrued compensation if the Company has available cash to do so without otherwise negatively impacting the Company’s business plans.

Note 5 –Convertible Debt and Derivative Liability

Convertible Debt I

Between August and December 2021, the Company issued convertible notes (collectively, “Notes I”) totaling $527,650, originally maturing on July 31, 2022, with an interest rate of 1%. Notes I featured an automatic conversion feature upon an IPO into common stock at 70% of the IPO price. Various amendments extended the maturity, ultimately to December 31, 2024, and increased the interest rate to 10%. In December 2024, following a successful IPO, the then outstanding principal and accrued interest totaling $636,852 Note I converted into 227,447 shares of common stock at $2.80 per share.

*** Convertible Debt II***

In April 2022, the Company issued a senior secured convertible note (“Note II”) and 514,403 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $977,333 ($1,000,000 less origination costs and an embedded discount). Note II had an original principal of $1,111,111. The original terms of Note II included, among other provisions, penalties and stock conversions at substantial discounts upon default or qualified offerings. Various amendments were executed which extended principal repayment dates and increased repayment premiums resulting in losses on debt extinguishment totaling $887,946 in 2023. In April 2024, Note II was further modified, removing the conversion feature, increasing principal to $1,377,778, and extending the maturity, resulting in a gain on modification of $951,868 and an increase to derivative liability of $407,494. Note II was fully repaid in December 2024 for $2,102,797, which included all then outstanding principal and accrued interest.

Convertible Debt III

In March 2023, the Company issued a convertible note (“Note III”) with a principal amount of $150,000 in connection with an investor relations settlement, maturing February 28, 2026 and a compounding 5% annual interest rate. In December 2024, the then outstanding balance of Note III totaling $178,386 was fully repaid, which included all then outstanding principal and accrued interest.

Note 5 – Convertible Debt and Derivative Liability, continued

Summary

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, interest expense of $46,948 is included in the accompanying 2024 condensed consolidated statement of operations, related to Notes I, II and III (collectively, the “Notes”), all of which were paid in full in December 2024.

Derivative Liability Pursuant to Convertible Debt

Based on the terms of conversion features of the Notes, the Company determined at the time of issuance that the conversion option represented an embedded component of a host instrument, the notes, required to be separated from the host and accounted for separately as a derivative. Accordingly, embedded conversion option was accounted for as a derivative liability and a corresponding debt discount at the date of issuance. The balance of the derivative liability was adjusted to fair value, as determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model, through earnings at each reporting date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a loss totaling $37,711 relating to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability. There was no such gain or loss during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as the Notes were paid in full in December 2024 which eliminated the related derivative liability.

Significant assumptions utilized in the determination of the fair value of derivative liabilities were as follows:

Dividend Rate-
Term0.25
Volatility90%
Risk-free rate5.20%
Probability of IPO60%
