Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 —ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business**–**On February 13, 2024, the Company changed its corporate name from Renovaro Biosciences Inc. to Renovaro Inc. (“Renovaro”, and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we” or “us”). In August 2023, the Company changed its corporate name from Enochian Biosciences Inc. to Renovaro Biosciences Inc. The Company is an AI-driven healthcare technology company that, if it can generate sufficient funding, will also continue to engage in the research and development of pharmaceutical and biological products for the treatment of cancer and HIV with the intent to manufacture said products. On February 13, 2024, Renovaro Inc. acquired GEDi Cube Intl Ltd and its subsidiaries (“Renovaro Cube”), as a wholly owned subsidiary pursuant to a stock purchase agreement.

**Basis of Presentation –**The Company prepares consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and follows the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

**Principles of Consolidation –**For the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of Renovaro, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation.

**Subsidiaries –**Renovaro Biosciences Inc. (“Renovaro Biosciences”), formerly Renovaro Biopharma Inc., was incorporated on May 19, 2017 in Delaware and is a 100% owned subsidiary of Renovaro. Renovaro Biosciences owns a perpetual, fully paid-up, royalty-free, sublicensable, and sole and exclusive worldwide license to research, develop, use, sell, have sold, make, have made, offer for sale, import and otherwise commercialize certain intellectual property in cellular therapies for the prevention, treatment, amelioration of and/or therapy exclusively for HIV in humans, and research and development exclusively relating to HIV in humans. As of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, zero and 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively, remain contingently issuable in connection with the acquisition of Renovaro Biosciences in February 2018 (the “Contingent Shares”).

Renovaro Biosciences Denmark ApS (“Renovaro Denmark”), formerly Enochian Biosciences Denmark ApS a Danish corporation was incorporated on April 1, 2001. On February 12, 2014, in accordance with the terms and conditions of a Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired Renovaro Denmark and it became a 100% owned subsidiary of Renovaro subject to 185,053 shares of Common Stock of Renovaro held in escrow according to Danish law (the “Escrow Shares”). As of June 30, 2024, there are 17,414 Escrow Shares remaining (see Note 9.)

On February 13, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of Renovaro Cube. As a result of the acquisition, Renovaro Cube became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (see Note 12.)

**Use of Accounting Estimates **- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated. Significant estimates include the fair value and potential impairment of intangible assets, the fair value of the contingent consideration liability, and the fair value of equity instruments issued.

**Functional Currency and Foreign Currency Translation **– The functional currency of Renovaro Denmark is the Danish Kroner (“DKK”) and the functional currency of Renovaro Cube is the Euro (“EUR”). The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar for the purpose of these financial statements. The Company’s balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end exchange rates and all revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates prevailing during the years ended June 30, 2024, and 2023. Translation gains and losses are deferred and accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statement of operations as incurred.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents **– The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk – Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in financial institutions, which, at times, exceed the amount of deposit insurance provided within the relevant jurisdiction where the deposits are held. As of June 30, 2024, and June 30, 2023, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Insurance Receivable – The Company recognizes insurance receivables associated with expected recoveries of costs incurred for litigation which is probable of incurring a loss and for which it is probable the Company will receive coverage under its existing insurance policies. The Company records any such recoveries on a gross basis and does not net such amounts against any related loss contingency accruals.

**Property and Equipment **- Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized and depreciated upon being placed in service. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from four to ten years (see Note 4.)

**Intangible Assets -**The Company has both definite and indefinite life intangible assets.

Definite life intangible assets relate to patents. The Company accounts for definite life intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Intangible assets are recorded at cost. Patent costs capitalized consist of costs incurred to acquire the underlying patent. If it is determined that a patent will not be issued, the related remaining capitalized patent costs are charged to expense. Definite life intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life. The estimated useful life of patents is twenty years from the date of application.

Indefinite life intangible assets include license agreements and goodwill acquired in a business combination. The Company accounts for indefinite life intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350. License agreement costs represent the fair value of the license agreement on the date acquired and are tested annually for impairment on June 30 or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the fair value of the license is less than the carrying amount.

Goodwill - Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated for impairment annually as of June 30 or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the reporting unit may be less than the fair value of the reporting unit.

Impairment of Goodwill and Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets – We test for goodwill impairment at the reporting unit level, which is one level below the operating segment level. Our detailed impairment testing involves comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. Fair value reflects the price a market participant would be willing to pay in a potential sale of the reporting unit and is based on discounted cash flows or relative market-based approaches. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we record an impairment loss for such excess.

For indefinite life intangible assets, such as IPR&D, on an annual basis on June 30th we determine the fair value of the asset and record an impairment loss, if any, for the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value. For the year ended June 30, 2023, the carrying value of the IPR&D exceeded its fair value. Therefore, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $18,960,000 during the year ended June 30, 2023. During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $42,611,000 related to the termination of the license agreement with Weird Science LLC (see Note 5.)

The carrying value of IPR&D and goodwill at June 30, 2024, were zero and $159,330,161, respectively.

**Impairment of Long-Lived Assets -**Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and definite life intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectations that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.

Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and would no longer be depreciated. The depreciable basis of assets that are impaired and continue in use are their respective fair values. No impairment of these assets was recorded during the year ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

Leases - In accordance with ASC Topic 842, the Company determined the initial classification and measurement of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter. The lease terms include any renewal options and termination options that the Company is reasonably assured to exercise, if applicable. The present value of lease payments is determined by using the implicit interest rate in the lease, if that rate is readily determinable; otherwise, the Company develops an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of the future payments.

Rent expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis, unless the operating lease right-of-use assets have been impaired, over the reasonably assured lease term based on the total lease payments and is included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. For operating leases that reflect impairment, the Company will recognize the amortization of the operating lease right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term with rent expense still included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

**Research and Development Expenses –**The Company expenses research and development costs incurred in formulating, improving, validating, and creating alternative or modified processes related to and expanding the use of the Company’s technologies. Research and development expenses for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $2,708,829, and $4,165,197, respectively.

**Income Taxes **- The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes (see Note 8.)

Loss Per Share - The Company calculates earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per common share (EPS) are based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share are based on shares outstanding (computed as for basic EPS) and potentially dilutive common shares. Potential shares of Common Stock included in the diluted earnings per share calculation include in-the-money stock options that have been granted but have not been exercised. The shares of Common Stock outstanding at June 30, 2024 and 2023 were 152,837,573 and 63,698,144, respectively. Because of the net loss for each of the years ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, dilutive shares for both periods were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation, as the effect of these potential shares of Common Stock is anti-dilutive. The Company had 17,146,315 and 7,949,513 potential shares of Common Stock excluded from the diluted EPS calculation for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

**Fair Value of Financial Instruments **– The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements”. The authoritative guidance, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. There were no Level 1, 2, or 3 assets, nor any Level 1, or 2 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024. Level 3 liabilities held as of June 30, 2024, consisted of a contingent consideration liability related to the February 13, 2024, acquisition of Renovaro Cube(see Note 3.) There were no Level 1, 2, or 3 assets, nor any Level 1, 2, or 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2023.

Stock-Based Compensation -The Company has granted stock options, restricted share units (“RSUs”) and warrants to certain employees, officers, directors, and consultants. The Company accounts for options in accordance with the provisions ofFASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation**. Stock based compensation costs for the vesting of options and RSUs granted to certain employees, officers, directors, and consultants for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $4,673,129 and $3,535,051, respectively**.**

The Company recognizes compensation costs for stock option awards to employees, officers and directors based on their grant-date fair value. The value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted-average assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model are the expected term of the award, the underlying stock price volatility, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected dividend yield. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

The Company records stock-based compensation for services received from non-employees in accordance withASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation Non-Employees. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to consultants and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued and are recognized over the consultants’ required service period, which is generally the vesting period.

The Company does not have sufficient historical information to develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior. Accordingly, the Company has elected to use the “simplified method” to estimate the expected term of its share-based awards. The simplified method computes the expected term as the sum of the award’s vesting term plus the original contractual term divided by two.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted - Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB that have not yet been adopted by the Company are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 –GOING CONCERN

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has incurred substantial recurring losses from continuing operations, has used cash in the Company’s continuing operations, and is dependent on additional financing to fund operations. The Company incurred a net loss of $80,650,172 and $39,684,056 for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $220,467 and an accumulated deficit of $324,679,425 and a working capital deficit of $28,312,274. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

Management has reduced overhead and administrative costs by streamlining the organization to focus around the development and validation of its AI driven cancer diagnostics platform. The Company has tailored its workforce to focus on these activities. In addition, the Company intends to attempt to secure additional required funding through equity or debt financing. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain any sources of funding. Such additional funding may not be available or may not be available on reasonable terms, and, in the case of equity financing transactions, could result in significant additional dilution to our stockholders. If we do not obtain required additional equity or debt funding, our cash resources will be depleted and we could be required to materially reduce or suspend operations, which would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, stock price and our relationships with third parties with whom we have business relationships, at least until additional funding is obtained. If we do not have sufficient funds to continue operations, we could be required to seek bankruptcy protection or other alternatives that could result in our stockholders losing some or all of their investment in us.

Funding that we may receive during the fiscal year 2025 is expected to be used to satisfy existing and future obligations and liabilities and working capital needs, to support commercialization of our products, to conduct the clinical and regulatory work to develop our product candidates, and to begin building working capital reserves.

**NOTE 3 —FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS **

The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements”. The authoritative guidance among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

●Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
●Level 2. Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
●Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

There were no Level 1, 2 or 3 assets, nor any Level 1 or 2 liabilities as of June 30, 2024.

Level 3 liabilities held as of June 30, 2024, consisted of a contingent consideration liability related to the February 13, 2014, acquisition of Renovaro Cube, (the “Acquisition”). As consideration for the Acquisition, the stockholders of Renovaro Cube received (i)70,834,183 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) the right to receive contingent shares pro rata upon the exercise of convertible notes, options, and warrants, which were outstanding at closing. The contingent consideration liability was recorded at fair value of $20,557,500 at the time of acquisition and is subsequently remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period. At June 30, 2024, there were 7,613,301 contingent shares issuable in connection with the Acquisition of Renovaro Cube.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability is estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model and a Monte-Carlo option pricing model. The key inputs to the model are all contractual or observable with the exception being volatility, which is computed based on the volatility of the Company’s underlying stock. The key inputs to valuing the contingent consideration liability as of June 30, 2024, were:

Schedule of key input to valuing the contingent consideration liability
Stock Price$1.75
Exercise Price$0.46 - $8.23
Volatility109% - 145%
Risk Free Rate4.24% - 5.21%
Expected Dividends0%
Discount Rate (Monte-Carlo model only)0%
Expected Term (years)0.47 – 9.50

At initial recognition of the contingent consideration, the inputs were:

Stock Price$1.92
Exercise Price$0.46 - $4.50
Volatility107% - 133%
Risk Free Rate4.22% - 5.14%
Expected Dividends0%
Discount Rate (Monte-Carlo model only)12%
Expected Term (years)0.56 – 9.88

Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, lease obligations and notes payable approximate their recorded values due to their short-term maturities.

The following table sets forth the Level 3 liability at June 30, 2024, which is recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value on a recurring basis. As required, this liability is classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

NOTE 5 —INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL

At June 30, 2024 and 2023, definite-life intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, consisted of patents on the Company’s products and processes of $30,043 and $39,676, respectively. The patents are recorded at cost and amortized over twenty years from the date of application. Amortization expense for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $8,296 and $6,175, respectively.

At June 30, 2024 and 2023, indefinite life intangible assets consisted of a license agreement classified as In-Process Research and Development (“IPR&D”) intangible assets, which are not amortizable until the intangible assets provide economic benefit, and goodwill.

At June 30, 2024 and 2023, definite-life and indefinite-life intangible assets consisted of the following:

During February 2018, the Company acquired IPR&D related to a License Agreement (as licensee) to an HIV therapy which consists of a perpetual, fully paid-up, royalty-free, sub-licensable, and sole and exclusive worldwide license to research, develop, use, sell, have sold, make, have made, offer for sale, import and otherwise commercialize certain intellectual property in cellular therapies for the prevention, treatment, amelioration of and/or therapy exclusively for HIV in humans, and research and development exclusively relating to HIV in humans. The IPR&D intangible asset was classified as an indefinite life asset that was tested annually for impairment.

On February 13, 2024, the Company acquired Renovaro Cube as a wholly owned subsidiary pursuant to a stock purchase agreement. As part of the acquisition of Renovaro Cube, the Company acquired goodwill valued at $159,464,039.

Impairment –On March 1, 2024, the Company received a notice from the sole manager of Weird Science LLC terminating the License Agreement by and between Weird Science LLC and Enochian Biopharma, Inc. (now known as Renovaro Biosciences, Inc.), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, dated February 16, 2018. Due to the termination of the License Agreement, the Company recorded an impairment of $42,611,000 during the year ended June 30, 2024.

Following the fourth quarter of each year, management performs its annual test of impairment of intangible assets by performing a assessment and determines if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is greater than or equal to the carrying value of the asset.

During the year ended June 30, 2023, the results of the assessment indicated that the carrying value of the licenses acquired as an IPR&D asset exceeded its fair value, due to the changes in the projected economic benefits to be realized from these assets. Therefore, an impairment adjustment of $18,960,000 was recorded for the year ended June 30, 2023.

During the year ended June 30, 2024, the results of the assessment indicated that the carrying value of the goodwill related to the RENB reporting unit exceeded its fair value, due to the changes in the projected economic benefits to be realized from this reporting unit. Management concluded the significant driver for the change in the economic benefits was due to the Company’s continued inability to raise capital for the further development of the technologies within this reporting unit. Therefore, an impairment adjustment of $11,640,000 was recorded for the year ended June 30, 2024.

NOTE 6 —LEASES

Operating Leases—On November 13, 2017, Renovaro entered into a Lease Agreement for a term of five years and two months from November 1, 2017, with Plaza Medical Office Building, LLC, a California limited liability company, as landlord, (the “Landlord”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to lease from the Landlord approximately 2,325 rentable square feet. The base rent increased by 3% each year and ranged from approximately $8,719 per month for the first year to $10,107 per month for the two months of the sixth year. The lease was terminated early without penalties or additional costs as of September 30, 2022, that released an accrual of $70,800 related to leasehold improvements that was not utilized.

On June 19, 2018, Renovaro entered into a Lease Agreement for a term of ten years from September 1, 2018, with Century City Medical Plaza Land Co., Inc., pursuant to which the Company agreed to lease approximately 2,453 rentable square feet. On February 20, 2019, Renovaro entered into an Addendum to the original Lease Agreement with an effective date of December 1, 2019, where it expanded the lease area to include another 1,101 square feet for a total rentable 3,554 square feet. The base rent increases by 3% each year, and ranges from $17,770 per month for the first year to $23,186 per month for the tenth year. The equalized monthly lease payment for the term of the lease is $20,050. Renovaro subleased the space as of June 25, 2022 through April 30, 2023. (See subsection below “Sublease Agreement” for details.)

Renovaro Cube leases an office facility in Amsterdam, Netherlands, under a 30-month operating lease agreement commencing on September 1, 2023, with a maturity date of February 28, 2026. In determining lease asset values, the Company considers fixed and variable payment terms, prepayments, incentives, and options to extend, terminate or purchase.

The Company identified and assessed the following significant assumptions in recognizing the right-of-use assets and corresponding liabilities:

Expected lease term— The expected lease term includes both contractual lease periods and, when applicable, cancelable option periods when it is reasonably certain that the Company would exercise such options. The Company’s leases have a remaining lease term of 38 and 20 months. As of June 30, 2024, the weighted-average remaining term is 2.54 years.

Incremental borrowing rate — The Company’s lease agreements do not provide an implicit rate. As the Company does not have any external borrowings for comparable terms of its leases, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate based on the U.S. Treasury Yield Curve rate that corresponds to the length of each lease. This rate is an estimate of what the Company would have to pay if borrowing on a collateralized basis over a similar term in an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. As of June 30, 2024, the weighted-average discount rate is 5.14%.

Lease and non-lease components — In certain cases the Company is required to pay for certain additional charges for operating costs, including insurance, maintenance, taxes, and other costs incurred, which are billed based on both usage and as a percentage of the Company’s share of total square footage. The Company determined that these costs are non-lease components, and they are not included in the calculation of the lease liabilities because they are variable. Payments for these variable, non-lease components are considered variable lease costs and are recognized in the period in which the costs are incurred.

Sublease Agreement

On June 20, 2022, the Company entered into a sublease Agreement with One Health Labs (the “Subtenant”), whereby the Subtenant agreed to lease 3,554 square feet of space currently rented by the Company in Century City Medical Plaza as of June 25, 2022, for a period of 3.5 years with an option to renew for the remaining term of the lease that ends as of June 19, 2028. The base rent was $17,770 per month plus $750 towards utility fees that are part of the original lease agreement and would increase by 3% each year over the term of the sublease. The Company received a total of $57,022 on July 1, 2022 after execution of the sublease to cover the first month rent, utility fee and deposit. The first sublease payment began on August 1, 2022.

In accordance with ASC Topic 842, the Company treated the sublease as a separate lease, as the Company was not relieved of the primary obligation under the original lease. The Company continues to account for the Century City Medical Plaza lease as a lessee and in the same manner as prior to the commencement date of the sublease. The Company accounted for the sublease as a lessor of the lease. The sublease was classified as an operating lease, as it did not meet the criteria of a sales-type or direct financing lease.

On April 18, 2023, the Company entered into a sublease termination agreement with the Subtenant, whereby the Subtenant and the Company agreed to terminate the sublease effective as of April 30, 2023. The Subtenant agreed to pay the Company $139,460 along with the security deposit of $35,540 for a total termination fee of $175,000, to permit early termination of the sublease.

The Company recognized operating income from the sublease on a straight-line basis in its statements of operations over the sublease term.

During the year ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the net operating lease expenses were as follows:

Schedule of net operating lease expenses
Years ended June 30,
20242023
Operating Lease Expense$383,549$322,447
Sub-lease Income—(352,700)
Total Net Lease Expense$383,549$(30,253)

Lease expense charged to general and administrative expenses for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, amounted to $383,549 and $322,447, respectively. During the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company paid $380,983 and $439,519 under operating leases, respectively. The difference between the operating lease expense for the year ended June 30, 2023 in the amount of $322,447 and the cash paid of $439,519, is primarily made up of the release of an accrual of $77,242 related to the termination of the Plaza Medical Office Building, LLC lease.

***The Convertible Notes —***On February 6, 2020, the Company issued two Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) to Paseco ApS (the “Holder”), a Danish limited company and an existing stockholder of the Company, each with a face value amount of $600,000, convertible into shares of Common Stock. The outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes was due and payable on February 6, 2023. Interest on the Convertible Notes commenced accruing on the date of issuance at six percent (6%) per annum, computed on the basis of twelve 30-day months, and was compounded monthly on the final day of each calendar month based upon the principal and all accrued and unpaid interest outstanding as of such compound date. The interest was payable in cash on a semi-annual basis.

The conversion price was equal to $12.00 per share of Common Stock. The Holder did not exercise its conversion feature that expired on February 6, 2021. The Company evaluated the Convertible Notes in accordance with ASC 470-20 and identified that they each contain an embedded conversion feature that shall not be bifurcated from the host document (i.e., the Convertible Notes) as they are not deemed to be readily convertible into cash.

Effective December 30, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), the Company amended and restated the Convertible Notes (the “Amended and Restated Secured Notes”). Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Secured Notes, the due date was extended to February 28, 2024. The Amended and Restated Secured Notes were convertible by the Holder if the Company consummated a public offering or private placement of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock. The conversion price was to be the price being paid by the investors in such offering. The interest rate was increased to twelve percent (12%) per annum, which was prepaid by the Company in full on the date of amendment through the issuance of 198,439 shares of the Company’s Common Stock:29,419 shares for accrued interest up to the Effective Date and 169,020 shares related to the prepayment of interest through the extension date of the Amended and Restated Secured Notes using the Common Stock closing market price on the Effective Date, of $1.03. The obligations of the Company under the Amended and Restated Secured Notes were secured by a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”). The Company evaluated the Amended and Restated Secured Notes and conversion feature to determine the appropriate accounting treatment based on the terms of the agreement. In accordance with ASC 480 - Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, the Company determined that the Amended and Restated Secured Notes embody an obligation that may require the Company to settle with the issuance of a variable number of shares, where the monetary value of the obligation is based predominantly on a fixed monetary amount of $1,200,000 known at inception. Accordingly, the Company recorded the Amended and Restated Secured Notes as share settled debt. The total value of the shares issued was $204,392 which included $174,090 of prepaid interest and $30,302 for accrued interest as of December 30, 2022. On June 26, 2023, the Holder notified the Company that it wished to elect to exercise its conversion right triggered by a private placement. Therefore, all outstanding $1,200,000 Amended and Restated Secured Notes were converted into 2,264,150 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 1,132,075 shares of Common Stock. There were no Amended and Restated Secured Notes outstanding after the foregoing conversion.

The principal amount of the Promissory Note was originally payable on November 30, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”). The Promissory Note bore interest at a fixed rate of 6% per annum, computed based on the number of days between the Issuance Date and the Maturity Date, and the interest was prepaid by the Company in full on the Issuance Date through the issuance of 188,485 shares of the Company’s Common Stock based on the closing market price on that date for a total value of $501,370. The Company evaluated the Promissory Note and PIK interest in accordance with ASC 470-Debt and ASC 835-Interest, respectively.

The Holder elected the interest be paid in cash (the “Interest Payment”).

Effective December 30, 2022, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Promissory Note. Pursuant to the third amendment, the Company’s obligations under the Promissory Note were secured by a Security Agreement. To secure the Company’s obligations under each of the Amended and Restated Secured Notes and the Promissory Note, the Company entered into a Security Agreement with the Holder, pursuant to which the Company granted a lien on all assets of the Company (the “Collateral”) for the benefit of the Holder. Upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Amended and Restated Secured Notes and Promissory Note, respectively) the Holder may, among other things, collect or take possession of the Collateral, proceed with the foreclosure of the security interest in the Collateral or sell, lease, or dispose of the Collateral.

On June 12, 2023, the Holder notified the Company that it wanted to apply the Interest Payment due to it towards the Company’s next private placement. Therefore, on June 26, 2023, in conjunction with the Company’s private placement, the Company issued (i)567,588 shares of its Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share and (ii) warrants to purchase 283,794 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $0.53 per share and applied the Interest Payment of $300,822 it owed to the Holder.

On July 31, 2023, the Company and the Holder agreed to amend the Promissory Note (the “Fourth Amendment”) to provide the Holder with limited conversion rights in connection with the Company’s next private placement. Per the terms of the Fourth Amendment, the Holder could elect to convert $2 million of the outstanding principal balance of the Promissory Note into the Units being offered in a private placement at the price per Unit being paid by the investors in the private placement (the “Conversion Right”). On August 1, 2023, the Holder notified the Company of its election to exercise the Conversion Right. As a result, $2 million of the outstanding principal balance of the Promissory Note was converted into 280,505 Units at $7.13 per unit, comprised of an aggregate of (i) 280,505 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company and (ii) Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,402,525 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $0.65 per share. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock acquired by the Holder was initially convertible into 2,805,050 shares of Common Stock. A $3 million principal balance remained outstanding under the Promissory Note after the foregoing conversion. The Company concluded that in accordance with ASC 470-20-40-4, the difference between the fair value of the Preferred Shares and warrants and the carrying value of the portion of the Note being converted should be recognized as an extinguishment. The extinguishment loss of $120,018 is recorded in Other Income/Loss in the Statement of Operations. On November 30, 2023, the Company and the Holder agreed to amend the Promissory Note (the “Fifth Amendment”) such that the Company and the Holder extended the maturity of the original Promissory Note until February 29, 2024. In addition, all interest payable from November 30, 2023 to the Maturity Date was payable and is currently payable by the Company as of November 30, 2023. On February 16, 2024, the Company received notice from the Holder to exercise 2,953,700 warrants outstanding ranging from $0.53 to $0.65 per share and apply $1,750,000 of the note balance to the exercise price of the warrants.

On May 1, 2024, the Company and the Holder agreed to amend the Promissory Note (the “Seventh Amendment”) to extend the maturity of the original Promissory Note until August 1, 2024. On June 14, 2024 the Holder requested the Company repay $418,503 of the Promissory Note. The Company applied $100,440 and $318,063 owed to the Company pursuant to certain Subscription Agreements. As such, payment of the 2020 Note Repayment decreased the principal amount by $418,503. For the year ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, discount amortization of $393,763 and $348,621 was charged to interest expense. The Promissory Note balance, net of discount at June 30, 2024 is $824,418.

NOTE 8 —INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes; which requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset or liability equal to the expected future tax benefit or expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting and any available operating loss or tax credit carryforwards. The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits from the deferred tax assets for income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the Company’s future earnings, and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined.

As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $489,177,759 and $476,965,239, respectively, giving rise to deferred tax assets of $144,191,530 and $140,547,314, respectively. The net operating loss carryforwards generated prior to January 1, 2018 expire over various dates from 2031 to 2038. All subsequent net operating loss carryforwards are indefinite.

The Company files Danish and U.S. income tax returns and these returns are generally no longer subject to tax examinations for years prior to 2020 for the Danish tax returns and 2021 for the U.S. tax returns.

The temporary differences, tax credits and carry forwards gave rise to the following deferred tax assets (liabilities) at June 30, 2024 and 2023:

In accordance with prevailing accounting guidance, the Company is required to recognize and disclose any income tax uncertainties. The guidance provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring tax benefits and liabilities when realization of the tax position is uncertain. The first step is to determine whether the tax position meets the more-likely-than-not condition for recognition, and the second step is to determine the amount to be recognized based on the cumulative probability that exceeds 50%. The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits from the deferred tax assets for income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the Company’s future earnings, and other future events, the effects of which can be difficult to determine and can only be estimated. Management estimates that it is more likely than not that the Company will not generate adequate net profits to use the deferred tax assets; and consequently, a valuation allowance was recorded for all deferred tax assets.

A reconciliation of income tax expense at the federal statutory rate to income tax expense at the Company’s effective rate is as follows for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Contingencies

Securities Class Action Litigation. On July 26, 2022 and July 28, 2022, securities class action complaints (the former, the “Chow Action” and the latter, the “Manici Action”) were filed by purported stockholders of the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against the Company and certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors. The complaints allege, among other things, that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, by making false and misleading statements and omissions of material fact in connection with the Company’s relationship with Serhat Gümrükcü and its commercial prospects. The complaints seek unspecified damages, interest, fees, and costs. On November 22, 2022, the Manici Action was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice, but the Chow action remains pending. On October 22, 2023, the Court appointed a lead plaintiff in the Chow Action. The lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint on December 15, 2023. The Company has filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on March 15, 2024. The Court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss on June 28, 2024.

Federal Derivative Litigation. On September 22, 2022, Samuel E. Koenig filed a shareholder derivative action in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. On January 19, 2023, John Solak filed a substantially similar shareholder derivative action in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. Both derivative actions recite similar underlying facts as those alleged in the Securities Class Action Litigation. The actions, filed on behalf of the Company, name Serhat Gümrükcü and certain of the Company’s current and former directors as defendants. The actions also name the Company as a nominal defendant. The actions allege violations of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and also set out claims for breach of fiduciary duty, contribution and indemnification, aiding and abetting, and gross mismanagement. Plaintiffs do not quantify any alleged injury, but seek damages, disgorgement, restitution, and other costs and expenses. On January 24, 2023, the United States District Court for the Central District of California stayed the Koenig matter pending resolution of the defendants’ anticipated motion to dismiss in the Securities Class Action Litigation. On April 4, 2023, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware stayed the Solak matter pending resolution of the defendants’ anticipated motion to dismiss in the Securities Class Action Litigation. On June 28, 2024, the United States District Court for the Central District of California denied defendants’ motion to dismiss the Securities Class Action Litigation. The deadline for the parties to file a proposed schedule or to continue the stay or proceedings in the Koenig matter is October 21, 2024. The deadline for the parties to file a proposed schedule or to continue the stay or proceedings in the Solak matter is October 22, 2024. The defendants have not yet responded to either complaint. The Company intends to contest these matters but expresses no opinion as to the likelihood of favorable outcomes. Management is unable to determine the likelihood of a loss, including a possible range of losses, if any, arising from this matter as of the reporting date.

State Derivative Litigation. On October 20, 2022, Susan Midler filed a shareholder derivative action in the Superior Court of California, Los Angeles County, reciting similar underlying facts as those alleged in the Securities Class Action Litigation. The action, filed on behalf of the Company, names Serhat Gümrükcü and certain of the Company’s current and former directors as defendants. The action also names the Company as a nominal defendant. The action sets out claims for breaches of fiduciary duty, contribution and indemnification, aiding and abetting, and gross mismanagement. Plaintiff does not quantify any alleged injury, but seeks damages, disgorgement, restitution, and other costs and expenses. On January 20, 2023, the Court stayed the Midler matter pending resolution of the defendants’ anticipated motion to dismiss in the Securities Class Action Litigation. On June 28, 2024, the United States District Court for the Central District of California denied defendants’ motion to dismiss the Securities Class Action Litigation. The deadline for the parties to file a proposed schedule or to continue the stay or proceedings in the Midler matter is October 23, 2024. The defendants have not yet responded to the complaint. The Company intends to contest this matter but expresses no opinion as to the likelihood of a favorable outcome. Management is unable to determine the likelihood of a loss, including a possible range of losses, if any, arising from this matter as of the reporting date.

On October 21, 2022, the Company filed a Complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles against Serhat Gümrükcü, William Anderson Wittekind (“Wittekind”), G Tech Bio LLC (“G Tech”), SG & AW Holdings, LLC, and Seraph Research Institute (“SRI”) (collectively, the “Defendants”). The Complaint alleges that the Defendants engaged in a “concerted, deliberate scheme to alter, falsify, and misrepresent to the Company the results of multiple studies supporting its Hepatitis B and SARS-CoV-2/influenza pipelines.” Specifically, “Defendants manipulated negative results to reflect positive outcomes from various studies, and even fabricated studies out of whole cloth.” As a result of the Defendants’ conduct, the Company claims that it “paid approximately $25 million to Defendants and third-parties that it would not otherwise have paid.” On April 21, 2023, defendants Wittekind, G Tech, SG & AW Holdings, LLC, and SRI filed a demurrer with respect to some, but not all, of the Company’s claims, as well as a motion to strike. On September 6, 2023, the court denied in part and granted in part the pending motions. On September 7, 2023, the court entered a case management order setting the final status conference, trial, and other intervening deadlines.

On December 4, 2023, the Defendants answered the Company’s First Amended Complaint and G Tech and SRI filed a Cross-Complaint. In the Cross-Complaint, G Tech and SRI seek declaratory and injunctive relief related to certain agreements between G Tech, SRI, and the Company, including,inter alia, a declaration that the Framework Agreement, effective as of November 15, 2019, the Statement of Work & License Agreement, effective as of January 31, 2020, and the Statement of Work and License Agreement for Influenza and Coronavirus Indications, effective as of April 18, 2021, have been terminated and the Company has no rights to any license under such agreements. Trial is currently scheduled to begin on March 3, 2025. The Company denies these allegations and intends to vigorously defend against the cross claims while pursuing its claims against the Defendants.

On March 1, 2021, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer, Robert Wolfe and his company, Crossfield, Inc., filed a Complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Vermont against the Company, Renovaro Biosciences Denmark ApS, and certain directors and officers. In the Complaint, Mr. Wolfe and Crossfield, Inc. asserted claims for abuse of process and malicious prosecution, alleging, inter alia, that the Company lacked probable cause to file and prosecute an earlier action, and sought millions of dollars of compensatory damages, as well as punitive damages. The allegations in the Complaint relate to an earlier action filed by the Company and Renovaro Biosciences Denmark ApS in the Vermont Superior Court, Orange Civil Division. On March 3, 2022, the court partially granted the Company’s motion to dismiss, dismissing the abuse of process claim against all defendants and all claims against Mark Dybul and Henrik Grønfeldt-Sørensen. On November 29, 2022, the Company filed a motion for summary judgment with respect to the sole remaining claim of malicious prosecution. On August 24, 2023, the court denied the motion for summary judgment. The court vacated the July 15, 2024 trial date and has yet to re-set the trial date. The Company denies the allegations set forth in the Complaint and will continue to vigorously defend against the remaining claim.

On June 7, 2023, Weird Science LLC (“Weird Science”), Wittekind, the William Anderson Wittekind 2020 Annuity Trust, the William Anderson Wittekind 2021 Annuity Trust, the Dybul 2020 Angel Annuity Trust, and the Ty Mabry 2021 Annuity Trust (such trusts, collectively, the “Trusts”) (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) filed a Verified Complaint against the Company in the Court of Chancery of Delaware. In the Verified Complaint, Plaintiffs alleged that the Company breached the February 16, 2018 Investor Rights Agreement between the Company, Weird Science, and RS Group ApS (the “Investor Rights Agreement”). According to the Verified Complaint, the Investor Rights Agreement required the Company to (i) notify all “Holders” of “Registrable Securities” at least 30 days prior to filing a registration statement and (ii) afford such Holders an opportunity to have their Registrable Securities included in such registration statement. Plaintiffs alleged that the Company breached these registration rights by failing to provide the required notice in connection with S-3 registration statements filed by the Company on July 13, 2020 and February 11, 2022. The Company moved to dismiss the Verified Complaint on September 15, 2023.

On December 4, 2023, in lieu of opposing the motion to dismiss, Plaintiffs filed a Verified First Amended Complaint (“FAC”). In the FAC, Plaintiffs assert claims against the Company and others for purported breaches of the Investor Rights Agreement, fraud, tortious interference with a contract, and several other torts. Plaintiffs seek compensatory, exemplary, and punitive damages, as well as certain declaratory relief, specific performance, and pre- and post-judgment interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the FAC on December 18, 2023. The Court scheduled oral argument on the motions to dismiss for November 15, 2024. The Company denies Plaintiffs’ allegations and intends to vigorously defend against the claims.

On August 24, 2023, counsel on behalf of Weird Science, Wittekind, individually, and Wittekind, as trustee of the Trusts served a demand to inspect the Company’s books and records (the “Demand”) pursuant to Delaware General Corporation Law, § 220 (“Section 220”). The Demand seeks the Company’s books and records in connection with various issues identified in the Demand. The Company takes its obligations under Section 220 seriously and, to the extent that the requests are proper under Section 220, intends to comply with those obligations.

On January 19, 2024, Weird Science and Wittekind sent the Company’s Board of Directors a letter demanding it take corrective actions with respect to twenty-one issues identified therein. On February 27, 2024, Weird Science and Wittekind sent the Company’s Board of Directors a supplemental letter that expanded their demand for corrective actions to twenty-six issues. In response to these demand letters, the Board of Directors initially formed a Special Committee (“Special Committee”) of independent directors on February 29, 2024. The Special Committee retained Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth LLP as its counsel to investigate the issues identified in the demand letters. The Special Committee’s investigation is ongoing.

On January 23, 2024, Weird Science and Wittekind filed a shareholder derivative action in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against certain officers, directors, and investors of the Company, as well as other defendants, in connection with,inter alia, Weird Science and Wittekind’s demand for corrective action. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on June 21, 2024. The First Amended Verified Stockholder Derivative Complaint (“Derivative Complaint”) alleges, among other claims, violations of Section 13(d) and 14(a) and Rules 10b-5(a), 10b-5(c) and 14a-9 of the Exchange Act of 1934. The Derivative Complaint also includes claims of breach of fiduciary duty, corporate waste, unjust enrichment, and contribution/indemnification. Weird Science and Wittekind seek unspecified compensatory, exemplary, and punitive damages and certain injunctive relief. The Derivative Complaint names the Company as a nominal defendant. On July 19, 2024, certain of the director defendants, who had agreed to waive service of the summons and Derivative Complaint, filed a motion to dismiss the Derivative Complaint on a variety of procedural and substantive grounds. A hearing on the motion dismiss was held on October 3, 2024 and the court subsequently took the motion under submission. The director defendants deny the allegations in the Derivative Complaint and intend to vigorously defend against the claims asserted therein.

On June 21, 2024, the Company filed suit against Weird Science, Wittekind, and certain trusts in connection with the February 16, 2018 merger involving the Company and two companies closely associated with Gumrukcu. In the complaint, the Company alleges that Gumrukcu and others deliberately and fraudulently concealed a murder-for-hire scheme from the Company in order to induce the Company to enter into the merger agreement, which resulted in the defendants receiving shares and compensation. The Company asserts claims for fraudulent concealment, equitable fraud, unjust enrichment, and civil conspiracy and seeks,inter alia, equitable relief, including, but not limited to, return to the Company any shares received in connection with the merger, and damages. On October 1, 2024, the defendants moved to dismiss the complaint.

NOTE 12 —ACQUISITION

On September 28, 2023, the Company, entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with GEDi Cube Intl Ltd., a private company formed under the laws of England and Wales (“GEDi Cube”) to acquire 100% of the equity interests of GEDi Cube from its equity holders (the “Sellers”). On September 28, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company, and the board of managers of GEDi Cube unanimously approved the Purchase Agreement and on January 25, 2024, the shareholders of the Company approved the issuance of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. On February 13, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the Company consummated the acquisition of GEDi Cube and the other transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction”). As a result of the Transaction, GEDi Cube became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company believes the acquisition will provide it with access to the nascent field of artificial intelligence and machine learning driven diagnostics, which was the primary purpose for the acquisition.

Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, as of the Closing Date, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding equity interests of GEDi Cube owned by the Sellers as of the Closing Date (each, a “GEDi Cube Share” and, collectively, the “GEDi Cube Shares”) in exchange for which each Seller was entitled to receive (i) as of the Closing Date, such Seller’s pro rata percentage of an aggregate of 70,834,183 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”), which represents the 67,224,089 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date (minus (a) 1 million shares of Common Stock previously issued to a consultant assisting with the Transaction and (b) 1 million shares of Common Stock previously issued to Avram Miller, a director of the Company, pursuant to his Advisory Agreement, dated October 11, 2023, by and between Mr. Miller and the Company) (the “Closing Consideration”) plus 5,610,100 shares of Common Stock representing the Seller’s Earnout Shares (defined below) resulting from the automatic conversion of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred and, (ii) following the Closing Date, such Seller’s pro rata percentage of the shares of Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares” and, together with the Closing Consideration, the “Exchange Consideration”) to be issued to the Sellers upon the exercise or conversion of any of the Company’s derivative securities (subject to certain exceptions) that are outstanding at the Closing Date (the “Closing Derivative Securities”). Each Seller’s pro rata percentage of the Exchange Consideration is equal to the ratio of the aggregate number of GEDi Cube Shares owned by such Seller divided by the aggregate number of GEDi Cube Shares issued and outstanding, in each case, as of the Closing Date.

The transaction was accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805-10 -Business Combinations. As a result of the issuance of the Closing Consideration on the Closing Date and based on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Closing Date, the Sellers held approximately 49% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately following the closing of the Transaction and the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were initially recognized provisionally in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values as of the acquisition date are based on information that existed as of the acquisition date. The Company completed its accounting for this acquisition during the period ended June 30, 2024. As a result of the completion of the Company’s analysis, the amount of in-process research and development was determined to have a value of nil. Accordingly, the amount of goodwill recognized was increased to include the previously recognized amount of in-process research and development. There was no impact to the Company’s consolidated statement of operations as a result of this change to the allocation.

The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred totaled approximately $156.6 million, which consisted of the following:

Common stock$136,001,631
Contingent consideration20,557,500
Total consideration transferred$156,559,131

Thefair value of the Company’s common shares issued as consideration was based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock as of the Acquisition Date. The fair value of the contingent considerationwas based on the Sellers’ right to receive additional shares of common, pro rata, upon the exercise or conversion of warrants, options and convertible notes payables outstanding as of the Closing Date.

The following table details the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

Cash$65,851
Prepaid & Other Assets151,544
Fixed Assets16,243
Operating lease ROU624,366
Total Assets Acquired:858,004
Accounts Payable583,577
Accrued Expenses722,508
Operating Lease liability624,367
Notes Payable1,832,460
Total Liabilities Assumed3,762,913
Net Assets Acquired(2,904,909)
Goodwill159,464,040
Total Consideration$156,559,131

The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of Gedi Cube. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The fair values of the acquired tangible and intangible assets were determined using variations of the income approach. The income approach valuation methodology used for the intangible assets acquired makes use of Level 3 inputs.

The Company recognized approximately $1.2 million of acquisition related costs that were expensed during the period ended June 30, 2024. These costs are included in “selling, general and administrative expenses” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The amounts of revenue and loss of GEDi Cube, included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations from the Closing Date through June 30, 2024 are as follows:

NOTE 13 —SEGMENT REPORTING

Beginning with the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company has two reportable segments. Prior to the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company had only a single reportable segment, the acquisition and integration of Renovaro Cube resulted in the identification of a separate reportable segment by the Company's chief operating decision maker.
