Legal and professional expenses were $1,188,220 and $957,545 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase of $230,675 was primarily attributable to investment banking fees and incremental legal and audit fees incurred in connection with the preparation and filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, our Registration Statement on Form S-3, and related prospectus supplement.

General and administrative expenses were $488,709 and $849,485 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Current report
Stock Based Compensation
Current report
Stock-based compensation expense, which is a non-cash expense, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 resulted from the ongoing recognition of the grant date fair value of restricted stock over the applicable service periods. Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 included the recognition of expense from the original grant dates of certain restricted stock through the Listing Date that occurred on March 26, 2025, reflecting a cumulative catch-up upon removal of the listing contingency, in addition to amortization of the grant date fair value of those shares of restricted stock over their respective service periods following the Listing Date. Since stock-based compensation is a non-cash item, it does not affect our cash position or our cash used in operating activities.
Current report
Advisory fee expense, primarily to a related party, was $1,360,000 and $11,737,806 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Current report
Gain on Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability
Current report
Gain on change in fair value of derivative liability was $2,801 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The derivative liability is created from the settlement feature embedded in the Company’s equity line of credit agreement with Mast Hill Fund, LP. Under the agreement, shares of common stock are purchased at a discount due to the five-day settlement period between the commitment date and the issuance date. This discount feature creates a variable settlement mechanism that is required to be accounted for as a derivative liability. The gain represents the change in fair value of this derivative liability from each draw under the agreement through the corresponding settlement date. There were no draws under the equity purchase agreement during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and no related loss was recognized in that period.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had not remitted such withholding taxes to the applicable taxing authorities, and accordingly the Company has accrued penalties and interest, which is included within accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Stock-Based Compensation
Current report
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
Current report
We consider the valuation of our common stock purchase warrants a critical accounting estimate. The fair value of our warrants is determined using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The Monte Carlo Simulation model requires significant judgment in the selection of key inputs, including expected volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, and the fair value of our common stock. Expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility of a peer group of guideline public companies, given our limited trading history as a public company. The expected term reflects, among other factors, our assumptions regarding the likelihood and timing of liquidity events. For warrants with down-round protective provisions, additional judgment is required in modeling the timing, probability, and pricing of assumed future financing events that could trigger an adjustment to the warrant exercise price. Changes in these assumptions, particularly expected volatility, expected term, and stock price, can materially affect the estimated fair value of our warrants and, for liability-classified warrants, our reported results of operations in any given period.

Previous report
As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through a combination of public or private equity offerings and debt financings or other sources, such as potential collaboration agreements, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on acceptable terms, or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such agreements as, and when needed, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Since our inception, we have not generated any revenue from product sales or any other sources, except humanitarian use, and we have incurred significant operating losses. We have not yet commercialized any products, and we do not expect to generate revenue from sales of any product candidates for a number of years, if ever. As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we have incurred recurring net losses since our inception. 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 had an accumulated deficit of $97,230,551 at September 30, 2025.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional funds and implement our strategies, such as executing additional licensing contracts. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional funds and implement our strategies, such as executing additional licensing contracts. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
Previous wording
The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on us raising additional capital and attaining and maintaining profitable operations in the future to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Since inception, we have funded our operations primarily through equity and debt financings and licensing income and we expect to continue to rely on these sources of capital in the future.
Current wording
The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on us raising additional capital and attaining and maintaining profitable operations in the future to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Since inception, we have funded our operations primarily through equity and debt financings and licensing income and we expect to continue to rely on these sources of capital in the future. We have the following financing facilities available to us:
Previous wording
No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our shareholders, in the case of equity financing, or grant unfavorable terms in licensing agreements.
Current wording
No assurance can be given that we will be able to draw upon such facilities if needed. Further, no assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in the case of equity financing, or grant unfavorable terms in licensing agreements.
Previous wording
We expect to finance our operations over the next 12 months primarily through existing cash balances and the proceeds from the aforementioned private placements and supplemented as necessary by funds available through our Line of Credit Agreement with HCWG and sales under the Equity Purchase Agreement, each as described below. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we may use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including:

Previous wording
We account for stock-based compensation, including restricted stock units (RSUs), in accordance with ASC 718. RSUs are measured at fair value on the grant date based on our common stock price and expense over the vesting period. For awards with performance or market conditions, expense is recognized based on the probability of achievement and may be accelerated. We estimate forfeitures based on historical data and adjust these estimates periodically. Changes in forfeiture rates, stock price, or performance assumptions can materially affect stock-based compensation expenses. Management reviews these assumptions quarterly and updates estimates as necessary. We consider the accounting for RSUs a critical estimate due to the judgment involved and its material impact on our financial results.
