Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 –Description of Business and Liquidity
NeOnc Technologies, Inc. (“NTI”) was incorporated on April 13, 2005, as a California corporation. On April 7, 2023, NTI merged into NeOnc Technologies Holdings, Inc. (“NTHI” and the combined entities “NeOnc” or the “Company”). NTHI was incorporated January 5, 2023, as a Delaware Corporation.
NeOnc is the developer of a novel molecular technology that provides enhanced targeted delivery of technologies for treating central nervous system diseases. The Company’s lead product, NEO100 is in clinical trials treating glioblastoma, and has Orphan Drug and Fast Track designation from the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The Company licensed the underlying technology from the University of Southern California. (“USC”).
On October 11, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with a broker dealer to serve as placement agent and provide broker services in connection with the proposed sale of common stock up to $10,000,000. Under this agreement, through December 31, 2024, the Company closed on commitments from investors to purchase 625,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $16.00 per share for total commitments of $10,000,000, which were to be held in escrow until the Company’s registration statement was declared effective. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, prior to the Company having an effective registration statement, the Company closed on an additional commitment to purchase 102,750 shares of common stock of the Company at $16.00 per share, for total commitments of $1,644,000, On March 10, 2025, the Company’s registration statement was declared effective at which time the $11,644,000 in escrow was released to the Company. On March 26, the Company was listed (“Listing”) on the NASDAQ global markets.
Liquidity
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2025, the Company had cash totaling $1,513,224. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $8,615,920 and $46,622,106, respectively, and has an accumulated deficit of $97,230,551 at September 30, 2025. The Company has financed its working capital requirements to date primarily through the sale of common stock, shareholder loans and related party bridge loans.
The Company does not have sufficient available capital to fund operations for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of these financial statements. Although the Company has established agreements with several funding potential sources (see Notes 6, 7 and 10), the Company does not know whether additional financing will be available when needed, whether it will be available on favorable terms, or if it will be available at all. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Other risks and uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks common to biopharmaceutical companies, including, but not limited to, new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, product liability, and the uncertainty of market acceptance of products and the potential need to obtain additional financing. The Company is dependent on third-party suppliers and, in some cases, single-source suppliers. The Company’s products require approval or clearance from the FDA prior to commencing commercial sales in the United States. Approvals or clearances are also required in foreign jurisdictions where the Company may license or sell its products. There can be no assurance that the Company’s products will receive all required approvals or clearances.
There can be no assurance that the Company’s products, if approved, will be accepted in the marketplace, nor can there be any assurance that any future products can be developed or manufactured at an acceptable cost with appropriate performance characteristics or that such products will be successfully marketed, if at all.
Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of interim periods and may not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The information as of September 30, 2025, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, is unaudited, whereas the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, is derived from the Company’s audited condensed consolidated financial statements as of that date. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, included on Form S-1, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2025.
The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the year.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
In preparing the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company, from time to time during the period covered by these financial statements, may have had bank account balances in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced losses in such accounts. For the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has money market funds in the amount of approximately $12,000 and $25,000, respectively.
Deferred offering costs
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the condensed consolidated balance sheet dated December 31, 2024 that are related to the planned public offering of its securities (See Note 3). These costs have been capitalized and were recognized in equity upon the completion of the securities offering. At September 30, 2025, deferred offering costs consist of the fair value of shares issued in conjunction with the issuance of an equity purchase agreement. These costs have been capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the availability of the equity purchase agreement (Note 6). If planned offerings are terminated, the related capitalized deferred offering costs are written off.
Debt issuance costs
Debt issuance costs represent costs directly attributable to warrants issued for a line of credit commitment. Such costs represent the fair value of warrants issued to the debt facility provider and are amortized to the statement of operations on a straight-line basis which approximates the effective interest rate method, over the term of the debt instrument. The debt issuance costs, net of accumulated amortization, are classified as a long-term asset until the Company begins to draw funds from the debt facility, in accordance with ASC 815: “Derivatives and Hedging”. At such time, the pro-rata portion of amounts borrowed as compared to the total debt facility will be reclassified as a contra-debt account.
Warrants
The Company evaluates the terms of warrants issued and determines if the instrument requires liability or equity accounting classification under ASC 815: Derivatives and Hedging and ASC 480: “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”.
Leases
The Company classifies its leases either as operating or financing lease at inception. The company has an operating lease. This lease is recorded as an operating lease, right of use (ROU) assets and operating lease liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Operating lease ROU assets and the related lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. The operating lease ROU assets also include lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of ROU asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. Leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease which are included in the ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liability when they are reasonably certain of exercise. Certain leases include lease and non-leased components, which are accounted for as one single lease component. Operating lease expense associated with minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Fair value measurements
FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used to measure fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, representing the assumptions the buyer and seller use in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs the buyer and seller would use to price the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The Company’s money market funds are valued at quoted prices in active markets and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the Company’s accounts payable approximates its fair value because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The note payable - related party is reported at fair value as the Company elected the fair value option for such a note (see Note 4).
The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
| ● | Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, the valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. |
| ● | Level 2 — Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by the market through correlation or other means. |
| ● | Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
Revenue
The Company recognized point-in-time revenue of $0 and $39,990 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and $0 and $63,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, for the right to try its technology in compassion use cases where the Company has no further performance obligations.
Research and development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses include personnel costs associated with research and development activities, including third-party contractors performing research, conducting clinical trials, and manufacturing drug supplies and materials.
Patent costs
All patent-related costs incurred in filing and prosecuting patent applications are expensed as incurred due to the uncertainty about the recovery of the expenditure. Amounts incurred are classified as legal and professional expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Share-based compensation
The Company has granted stock options and common stock to employees, non-employee consultants and non-employee members of our Board of Directors. The Company measures the compensation cost associated with all share-based payments based on the grant date fair values. Compensation costs associated with grants of common stock are measured at fair value at the date of grant, which has historically been the most recent price paid by investors to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock prior to such grant. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of each award, which generally equals the vesting period, using the straight-line method for awards that contain only service conditions. If the stock grant is contingent upon events that have not yet happened, then the grant is not considered issued. If an award holder leaves the company prior to vesting, and adjustment of the compensation expense will be made to reflect only those awards that vested.
The Company recognizes the stock-based compensation expense for the restricted stock units (“RSU”) based upon the fair value of the common stock at the date of the grant. The expense is recognized over the service period provided in the RSU awards, however expense will not be recognized until the listing date (“Listing Date”), as prior to such date it was not probable that condition to commence vesting would be met.
When the vesting contingency is met, the Company will commence to recognize expense related to the RSU’s. For time based vested RSU’s, the expense will be recognized on a straight-line basis from the grant date to the last vesting date. The expense recognized will include the expense from the date of the grant over the total vesting period and reflect the portion attributable to the service provided prior to the listing. For performance based RSU’s, the Company will determine the probability of the contingency being met each quarter end based upon an assessment of progress made under such performance criteria.
Net loss per share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. For periods in which the Company reports a net loss, the diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 there are potentially dilutive securities outstanding of 3,010,000 potentially dilutive restricted stock units which are not included in the diluted net loss per share calculation since their effect is anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, there wereno potentially dilutive warrants outstanding andno potentially dilutive restricted stock units.
Income taxes
The Company recognizes federal, state, and foreign current tax liabilities or assets based on its estimate of taxes payable to or refundable by tax authorities in the current fiscal year. For the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there is no current tax provision due to losses generated. The Company also recognizes federal and state deferred tax liabilities or assets based on the Company’s estimate of future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances if, based on the consideration of all available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company evaluates deferred income taxes quarterly to determine if valuation allowances are required by considering available evidence. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions, or if there is a material change in the actual effective tax rates or time period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable or deductible, the Company could be required to increase its valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets which could result in an increase in the Company’s effective tax rate and an adverse impact on operating results. The Company will continue to evaluate the necessity of the valuation allowance based on the remaining deferred tax assets. The difference between the statutory and effective rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 is a result of the Company applying a full valuation allowance against any deferred tax assets as a result of net operating losses due to uncertainties surrounding the usability of such net operating losses. The ability to utilize such net operating loss carry forwards may be limited due to possible changes in ownership as defined under Internal Revenue Code section 382.
The Company follows the accounting guidance related to financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes the impact of an uncertain income tax position on an income tax return at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it is less than 50% likely to be sustained. Uncertain tax positions are recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met or from changes in circumstances such as the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to tax positions in income tax expense.
Segment Reporting
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The standard expands reportable segment disclosure requirements for public business entities primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit (referred to as the “significant expense principle”). The standard has been adopted for our fiscal year 2024 annual financial statements and interim financial statements thereafter and have applied this standard retrospectively for all prior periods presented in the financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of previously reported amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications did not impact net income as previously reported.

Note 4 –Related Party Loans Payable
Bridge Loan
In April 2023, the Company entered into a non-interest bearing, non-convertible promissory note with HCWG LLC (the “Bridge Loan”). Borrowings under the Bridge Loan carry a 50% (or 1 times cash amounts borrowed) original issue discount (“OID”) on principal and through subsequent amendments the maximum cash borrowing was increased to $10,000,000. The outstanding amounts under this Bridge Loan were payable at the earlier of the date the Company completes an IPO or December 4, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”).
On June 14, 2024, the Company reached an agreement with HCWG LLC to convert the outstanding principal and interest on the Bridge Loan into 979,039 shares of common stock. As a result of this conversion, the Bridge Loan was terminated and is no longer available to the Company for borrowing. The Company has a receivable due from HCWG LLC totaling $138,247 which is recorded within prepaid expenses and other on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Through June 30, 2024, the Company had received under the Bridge Loan an aggregate of $7,116,335. The OID was recognized ratably over the term of each draw-down under the Bridge Loan through the Maturity Date unless settled earlier, at which point the accretion is accelerated. Accretion of the OID for nine months ended September 30, 2024, amounted to $1,387,493, which is included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

On March 10, 2025, the advance and 1x interest was repaid. Interest expense in the amount of $300,000 is included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as interest expense – related parties for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
NOTE 5 –Convertible Debt
On July 16 and July 18, 2025, the Company entered into a series of convertible promissory notes with a group of investors for the aggregate purchase price of $4,000,000 (the “Notes”). The Notes are payable three months after origination for a total amount of $5 million (20% OID). The Company may extend the payment date for up to three additional one-month periods with the OID on the Notes increasing to 25%, 30% and 35% with respect to any such monthly extensions. Further, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as that term is defined in the Notes, the Notes shall be convertible at the option of the holders into shares of the Common stock of the Company at a price equal to 80% of the lowest closing sale price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market on any trading day during the five (5) trading days prior to the respective conversion date. The Company also recorded debt issuance cost of $320,000 to be amortized as interest expense over the term of the loan using the straight-line method.
In accordance with ASU 2020-06, the Company accounts for the convertible notes as a single liability instrument. The notes are recorded at amortized cost, and interest expense is recognized using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate on the notes is approximately 7.72% per annum, which reflects the amortization of issuance costs and original issuance discount.
Through September 30, 2025, interest expense of $1,020,794 was recognized from the accretion of OID and accretion of the debt issuance cost. Subsequent to September 30, 2025, the Company exercised the first of three available extensions on the convertible promissory notes. The notes are now set to mature on November 16, 2025.
The following table summarizes the Company’s outstanding Notes as of September 30, 2025:

Note****6 –Leases
On February 1, 2024, the Company entered a 24-month lease for office space, which calls for a monthly base rent of $25,000, increasing at 3% per annum. The Company has only one operating lease and has no financing leases. The Company’s lease does not contain options to renew or extend the lease term or options to terminate leases early, except for insolvency. On November 27, 2024, the Company amended the lease expiration date from January 31, 2026, to January 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the consolidated balance sheet reflects a right-of-use asset of $23,526 and a lease liability of $24,722. The lease liability was computed using an interest rate of 13.49%.
In April 2025, the Company entered into a 63 month lease for office space which calls for a monthly base rent of $6,778, increasing at approximately 3% per annum. The lease liability was computed using an interest rate of 3.72% and as of September 30, 2025 the lease has a remaining 58 months. In calculating the present value of future lease payments, the Company utilized its incremental borrowing rate based on the lease term. The Company’s net lease non-lease components (e.g., standard area maintenance, maintenance, consumables, etc.) are paid separately from rent based on actual costs incurred and, therefore, are not included in the right-of-use asset and lease liability and are reflected as an expense in the period incurred. At September 30, 2025 the consolidated balance sheet reflects a right-of-use asset of $379,509 and a lease liability of $378,741.
The Company recorded lease expense of $21,781 and $102,704 during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $43,743 and $214,497 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively, within general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

If a sale is made between the Company and any institutional or individual third-party funding source introduced by the placement agent, the Company will pay a placement fee of 8% of the gross proceeds. In addition, the company agrees to pay; (a) 1.0% of the gross proceeds for non-accountable expenses; and (b) out of pocket expenses plus the costs associated with the use of a third-party electronic road show service up to $10,000. The agreement expired on January 11, 2025 and was amended and restated on January 29, 2025 to extend the term for another six months through July 29, 2025 and increased the placement fee to 12% from 8% of the gross proceeds, and eliminated the 1% non-accountable expense fee.
Under this agreement, through December 31, 2024, the Company closed on commitments from investors to purchase 625,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $16 per share for total commitments of $10,000,000, which were to be held in escrow until the Company’s registration statement was declared effective. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, prior to the Company having an effective registration statement, the Company closed on an additional commitment to purchase 102,750 shares of common stock of the Company at $16 per share, for total commitments of $1,644,005, also to be held in escrow until the Company’s registration statement was declared effective. On March 25, 2025, the Company’s registration statement was declared effective at which time the $11,644,005 in escrow was released to the Company.
In connection with the agreement, the Company paid $300,000 in placement agent fees to Broker for securing $2,500,000 in commitments for the Private Placement. This fee was paid when the funds were released from escrow and recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated statement of shareholders’ deficit as of September 30, 2025.
Advisory Services
On October 3, 2024, as amended on January 23, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with Broker, for financial advisory and investment banking services in connection with a direct listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market or other major US market. The agreement provides for a one-time fee of $250,000 payable three days after the direct listing and the issuance of 30,000 shares of common stock (which are restricted until the shares are registered by filing a resale S-1 within 30 days after the effective date of the direct listing). In addition, the Company agreed to pay up to $100,000 for fees and expenses of legal counsel and other out-of-pocket expenses plus the costs associated with the use of a third-party electronic road show service. Such fees were included in accounts payable and deferred offering costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024. The fair value of the 30,000 shares issued in March 2025, amounting to $363,300, was determined using the closing day price of $12.11. This amount was recorded as an advisory fee on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The agreement expired on January 3, 2025 and was amended and restated on January 23, 2025 to extend the term for another six months through July 23, 2025. This agreement expired in July 2025.
Deferred Offering Costs – Direct Listing
Deferred offering costs relating to the Private Placement and direct listing at December 31, 2024 totaled $1,071,947. At September 30, 2025, this amount plus $0 and $319,633 incurred in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively was reclassified against the common stock issued in the condensed consolidated statement of changes in shareholder’s deficit.
Equity Purchase Agreement
On October 22, 2024, the Company entered into an equity purchase agreement (the “Equity Purchase Agreement”) with Mast Hill Fund, LP (“Mast Hill”) pursuant to which the Company may sell and issue to Mast Hill, and the investor may purchase from the Company, up to $50,000,000 of Company’s common stock. Under the Equity Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to direct Mast Hill, by its delivery to the Mast Hill of a Put Notice from time to time, to purchase Put Shares (i) in a minimum amount not less than $50,000 and (ii) in a maximum amount up to the lesser of (a) $750,000 or (b) 150% of the average trading volume of the Company’s common stock during the five trading days immediately preceding the Put Date.
The actual amount of proceeds the Company receives pursuant to each Put Notice (each, the “Put Amount”) is determined by multiplying the Put Amount requested by the applicable purchase price. The purchase price for each of the Put Shares equals 95% of the Market Price, (as defined below) less the Clearing Costs (as defined below). Market Price is the lowest volume weighted average prices of the Company’s common stock on its principal market on any trading day during the Valuation Period (as defined below). The Valuation Period is the five trading days immediately following the date on which Mast Hill receives the Put Shares in its brokerage account. Clearing Costs are all the fees incurred by Mast Hill with respect to its brokerage firm, clearing firm, Company transfer agent fees, and attorney fees, with respect to the Put Shares.
The term of the Equity Purchase Agreement commenced on the effective date of the direct listing and will terminate on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Mast Hill shall have purchased Put Shares equal to the $50,000,000, (ii) twenty-four (24) months after the date of the Equity Purchase Agreement, (iii) written notice of termination by the Company to Mast Hill, (iv) this Registration Statement is no longer effective after the initial effective date of this Registration Statement, or (v) the date that, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law, the Company commences a voluntary case or any Person commences a proceeding against the Company, a receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official is appointed for the Company or for all or substantially all of its property or the Company makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company sold 447,527 shares of common stock at $3.73 – $9.53 per share under the Equity Purchase Agreement, resulting in net proceeds of $3,198,735. Since the shares were purchased at a discount as a result of the five-day settlement period, the settlement feature is considered a derivative liability. The fair value of the derivative approximates the loss on the settlement of such shares or $380,162 which was recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
In connection with this agreement, we issued 16,000 shares of common stock to Mast Hill. The fair value of the shares granted to Mast Hill upon issuance was determined by using the closing day price of $12.11. Such amount net of amortization was recorded as deferred offering cost on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported $24,220 and $94,458, respectively as amortization expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, and the remaining deferred offering costs of $99,302 at September 30, 2025 are to be amortized over the remaining term of the Equity Purchase Agreement.
Note 8 – Stock-Based Compensation
On April 12, 2023, the Company adopted the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”), which allows the issuance of up to 3,440,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued common stock in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units, or other forms of equity as may be added in the future to employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates. The allowable number of shares that can be issued under the 2023 Plan increased upon the completion of the listing to 4,764,507 which represents 20% of the fully diluted capitalization of the Company on the closing of Company’s initial public price.
In January and February 2024,2,460,000 and 200,000, respectively, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) were granted to the executive officers and members of the Board of Directors further to the 2023 Plan as described above. Of the total RSUs granted (tranche 1) 1,686,667 vest 100% seven months from the date that the Company lists on a national exchange, (tranche 2) 466,667 will vest in equal monthly instalments over a one (1) year period commencing on the eighth month from the effective date of the listing on a national exchange and (tranche 3) 486,666 are performance-based, the vesting of which will be predicated on certain financial and operational performance metrics being met after the effective date of the listing on a national exchange as set forth the grant agreements. Since tranche 3 is performance based, it is not yet probable that all of the performance vesting conditions will be met and as such no expense has been recognized for tranche 3 as of September 30, 2025.
On October 23, 2024, 200,000 RSUs were granted to each of the CEO and the Executive Chairman, for a total of 400,000, and 100,000 granted to two members of the Board of Directors were canceled. These RSUs vest 100% seven months from the date the Company lists on a national exchange.
On March 26, 2025, 150,000 RSUs were granted to the three board members, in the amount of 50,000 each. These RSUs vest 100% seven months from the date the Company lists on a national exchange.
Prior to March 26, 2025, the Company determined that no expense should be recognized for the RSUs since the contingency related to the commencement of vesting (i.e., the listing) of the RSUs had not been met. On March 26, 2025, the listing occurred, satisfying the contingency required for vesting to begin and defining the service period.
On June 1, 2025,300,000 RSUs were forfeited resulting in a reversal of $1,329,062 of shared based compensation during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
On June 5, 2025,200,000 RSUs were granted to the one board member. 66,667 RSUs vest 100% seven months from the date of issuance, 66,667 RSUs vest 100% thirty-six months from the date of issuance. The remaining 66,667 RUS’s vest thirty-six months from the date certain performance metrics are achieved.
The Company determined the fair value of all the RSUs at their respective grant dates to be $32,495,174 based on the price of the most recent sale of common stock prior to each grant date for those RSU’s granted prior to the Listing Date or the quoted market value for the RSU’s granted after the Listing Date. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the company recognized $25,964,096. As of September 30, 2025, there was unamortized stock-based compensation of approximately $9,270,400 which the Company expects to recognize over approximately 6.75 years.
The activity related to RSUs is summarized as follows:
| Schedule of restricted stock units activity | |
|---|---|
| Restricted Stock Units | |
| Activity | RSUs Granted |
| January 1, 2024 | - |
| Granted | 3,060,000 |
| Cancelled | (100,000) |
| December 31, 2024 | 2,960,000 |
| Granted during nine months ended September 30, 2025 | 350,000 |
| Forfeited | (300,000) |
| Balance at September 30, 2025 | 3,010,000 |
| Released RSUs for nine months ended September 30, 2025 | - |
As of September 30, 2025,1,754,500 RSU’s remain unissued in the 2023 Plan.
Note 9 –Commitments and Contingencies
Line of Credit Commitment – Related Party
On October 11, 2024, the Company entered into a Line of Credit Agreement (“the Agreement”) with HCWG for borrowings of up to $10.0 million. Borrowings under the Line of Credit Agreement bear interest at 10.0% per annum and increases to 14% if the Agreement is extended. Interest payments are due on the first business day of each calendar month and the unpaid principal is due on October 12, 2027. No amounts have been borrowed under the facility through September 30, 2025.
In connection with the agreement, the Company issued HCWG five-year warrants to purchase up to 312,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $12.00 per share. These warrants expire on October 23, 2029. As of December 31, 2024, there were 312,500 warrants issued, outstanding and fully vested. In March 2025,162,500 warrants were exercised in a cashless exercise, resulting in the issuance of 162,500 shares of common stock. At September 30, 2025, there are 150,000 shares of common stock remaining available to be purchased under the warrant.
The fair value of the warrants on the grant date was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, with the following key assumptions:
| ● | Fair value of common stock: $12.00 |
| ● | Expected volatility: 86% |
| ● | Risk-free interest rate: 4.82% |
| ● | Term: 2.5 years |
The fair value of warrants at inception was $2,015,413, which was recorded as additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated statement of changes stockholders’ deficit for the year ended December 31, 2024, and as debt issuance costs on the balance sheet. The debt issuance costs are being amortized over the term of the line of credit and amounted to $167,951 and $503,853 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, unamortized debt issuance costs total $1,366,458 and $1,870,316, respectively, which will be amortized over the remaining 13 months of the facility.
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is involved in various disputes, claims, liens and litigation matters arising out of the normal course of business which could result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s combined financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that liability has been incurred, and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no liabilities recorded for loss contingencies, except as below.
