NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

Klotho Neurosciences, Inc. (“The Company” or “Klotho”), formerly known as ANEW Medical, Inc., develops essential medicines for the treatment of chronic diseases – cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative disorders. The Company currently has acquired two licensed platforms: a generic drug portfolio and a biosimilar biologics platform that uses biologic therapies to treat cancer, and two proprietary, patented technologies involving the melanocortin receptor-binding molecules and a gene therapy platform which uses a gene therapy approach to introduce a therapeutic protein called “Klotho” inside the body to treat neurodegenerative diseases.

 

On September 12, 2022, the Company acquired five market-approved anti-cancer drugs approved for sale in Germany. The Market Authorizations (MA’s) are for four of the drugs that comprise the “FOLFOX” and “FOLFIRI” multi-drug regimens used in treatment of metastatic colorectal and gastric cancer and in two of the drugs that are used to treat metastatic lung cancer. The drugs are important in the treatment of many solid tumors in both childhood and adult cancers. Previously, the Company acquired two off-patent bio generic antibodies from Reliance Life Sciences (RLS), the life science arm of Reliance Industries Pvt Ltd. of Navi Mumbai, India.

 

During January 2023, the Company acquired a treatment for small drug molecules that bind to the melanocortin receptors on human cells and affect skin pigmentation.

 

Effective July 24, 2024, the Company changed its legal name from ANEW Medical, Inc. to Klotho Neurosciences, Inc. This name change was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors to better reflect the strategic focus of its proprietary products. Throughout these financial statements, references to the “Company” refer to Klotho Neurosciences, Inc., formerly known as ANEW. Under certain circumstances, references to ANEW have remained when useful in describing the sequence of events that occurred during the merger between Redwoods and ANEW.

 

Business Combinations

 

As of May 30, 2023, Redwoods Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a special purpose acquisition company (“Redwoods”), Anew Medical Sub, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Merger Sub”) and ANEW Medical, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“ANEW”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement, which was amended as of November 4, 2023 (the “Business Combination Agreement”). On June 21, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), Merger Sub merged with and into ANEW, with ANEW continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Redwoods (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, on June 21, 2024, Redwoods filed its Second Amended Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State, and adopted the amended and restated bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”), which replaced Redwoods’ Charter and Bylaws in effect as of such time. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), Redwoods changed its name to “ANEW Medical, Inc.”

 

For accounting purposes, the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination are treated as a reverse acquisition and, as such, the historical financial statements of the accounting acquirer ANEW (Wyoming) will become the historical financial statements of the Company. Under this method of accounting, Redwoods was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Redwoods were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

 

Recapitalization

  

In connection with the merger, the Company issued six million shares in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of ANEW. At $10 per Redwood’s share, the valuation of ANEW was $60 million.

 

5

 

Immediately after giving effect to the Business Combination, 15,130,393 shares of Company Common Stock were outstanding, from which 2,875,000 remain in escrow for the Redwoods founders. In addition, there were 12,030,000 warrants immediately exercisable and composed of 11,500,000 public warrants and 530,000 private warrants. Following the Closing, on June 21, 2024, the Company’s Common Stock and Warrants began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbols “WENA” and “WENAW,” respectively. The Public Units of Redwoods automatically separated into the component securities upon consummation of the Business Combination and, as a result, no longer trade as a separate security. Further, upon closing of the Business Combination on June 21, 2024, the Company received approximately $181,339 in net cash proceeds. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company determined there was an additional approximate $8,500 cash.

 

At Closing, pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement and after giving effect to the redemptions of shares of Redwoods Common Stock: 

 

The total consideration paid at Closing (the “Merger Consideration”) by Redwoods to ANEW Medical, Inc. security holders was 6,000,000 shares of the Company common stock valued at $60 million (the “Consideration Shares”), based on an implied ANEW equity value of $60,000,000 valued at $10 per share;

 

Each share of ANEW Medical Common Stock, if any, that was owned by Redwoods, Merger Sub, ANEW Medical, Inc. or any other affiliate of Redwoods immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) was automatically cancelled and retired without any conversion or consideration;

 

Each share of Merger Sub common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Merger Sub Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one newly issued share of Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation.

 

In connection with the Merger, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note and Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with certain accredited investors (the “Redwoods PIPE Investors”) for an aggregate of 750,000 shares (bonus free trading shares and restricted shares issued at closing), with each unit consisting of one share of Company common stock (the “PIPE Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 (the “Redwoods PIPE Financing”). Upon the closing of the Redwoods PIPE Financing (which closed in connection with the closing of the Merger), the $2,000,000 were used by the Company to settle transaction costs. The Company received approximately $181,339 in net cash proceeds and recorded a receivable of $50,000 from the Redwoods PIPE Financing funds.

 

In connection with the Merger, the Company entered convertible promissory note and Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with certain accredited investors (the “ANEW PIPE Investors”) for an aggregate of 854,257 units (bonus free trading shares and restricted shares issued at closing), with each unit consisting of one share of Company common stock (the “PIPE Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 (the “ANEW PIPE Financing”). Upon the closing of the ANEW PIPE Financing (which closed in connection with the closing of the Merger), $1,000,000 was used by the Company to settle transaction costs. The Company received approximately $950,000 in cash proceeds and recorded a receivable of $50,000 from the ANEW PIPE Financing funds.

 

Concurrent with Closing, certain ANEW stockholders may be entitled to up to an additional 5,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock (the “Contingent Consideration Shares”), upon the following conditions being met:

 

  (i) 2,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company’s common stock achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $12.50 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first three years following the Closing;

 

  (ii) 2,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company’s common stock achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $15.00 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first three years following the Closing; and

 

  (iii) 1,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company’s common stock achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $20.00 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first five years following the Closing.

  

In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the equity structure has been restated in all comparable periods up to June 21, 2024 and reflected as such as of September 30, 2024, to reflect the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, issued to ANEW’s stockholders in connection with the merger. As such, the shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share related to ANEW’s common stock prior to the merger have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the merger.  

 

For accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Redwoods were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. In connection with the Merger, in addition to the warrants, ANEW Medical assumed $589,081 in cash and $568,111 in income tax payable. The income tax payable of $568,111 was settled in full as of September 30, 2024 from the assumed $589,081 cash.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of approximately $51,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $8.5 million. The Company has incurred recurring losses, has experienced recurring negative operating cash flows, and requires significant cash resources to execute its business plans. The Company is dependent on obtaining additional working capital funding from the sale of equity and/or debt securities in order to continue to execute its development plans and continue operations. Without additional funding, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the date of these financial statements. 

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company prepared the Financial Statements, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to quarterly reporting on Form 10-Q and reflect, in management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been consolidated or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2023 Annual Report. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

 

Reclassification

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the current-year financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations and were not material.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand, demand deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments placed with banks, which have original maturities of three months or less and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The assets and liabilities are valued using a fair market basis as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. The Company uses a three-level hierarchy established by the FASB that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). The levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

  Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
     
  Level 3: Unobservable inputs with little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the most conservative level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Intangible Assets

 

The Company’s intangible assets consist of acquired medical licenses and patents.

 

The Company acquires medical licenses for the treatment of medical conditions to market and sell in the future. The initial asset cost is the cost to acquire the license. Once in use, the Company amortizes the license cost over the useful life using the straight-line method. As part of the licensing agreements, the Company acquires patents and records the cost to acquire patents as the initial asset cost. Once the patents are approved and in use, assuming no litigations expenses, the Company amortizes the patent cost over the useful life using the straight-line method. The amortization period will not exceed the lifespan of the protection afforded by the patent. If the expected useful life of the patent is even shorter, the Company will use the useful life for amortization purposes. Thus, the shorter of a patent’s useful life or legal life will be used for the amortization period.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

 

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived and intangible assets periodically, or at least annually, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors considered important, which could trigger an impairment review, include the following: significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future cash flows; significant changes in the manner of use of the assets or the strategy of the overall business; and significant negative industry trends. When management determines that the carrying value of long-lived and intangible assets may not be recoverable, impairment is measured as the excess of the assets’ carrying value over the estimated fair value. Management is not aware of any other impairment charges that may currently be required; however, the Company cannot predict the occurrence of events that might adversely affect the reported values in the future. On an annual basis, the Company tests the long-lived and intangible assets for impairment based on the projected net present value of cash flows for each asset. Prior to the annual impairment test, if circumstances change and a long-lived or intangible asset is deemed impaired, an impairment loss will be immediately recognized in the statements of operations. At December 31, 2023, the date of the last impairment test, it was determined that the estimated fair value of the intangible assets exceeded the carrying value of the assets by 50%, indicating no impairment.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company is in a pre-revenue state and does not generate revenue. When the Company commences to derive revenue, those contracts will be accounted in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic ASC 606).

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASU 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, income tax expense is recognized as the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of available evidence it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

The Company is subject to Income tax filings requirements in U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. The Company’s tax returns for years from 2021, 2022, and 2023 are subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities.

 

The Company reports income tax related interest and penalties within the income tax line item on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company likewise reports the reversal of income tax-related interest and penalties within such line item to the extent the Company resolves the liabilities for uncertain tax positions in a manner favorable to the accruals.

 

Net Loss Per Share (Basic and Diluted)

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, plus the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued, if dilutive.

The following table details the net loss per share calculation, reconciles between basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, and presents the potentially dilutive shares that are excluded from the calculation of the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

Weighted average shares outstanding (denominator for basic earnings per share)   16,588,940    15,130,393 
           
Weighted average shares and assumed potential common shares (denominator for diluted earnings per share, treasury method)   16,588,940    15,130,393 
           
Basic loss per share  $(0.25)  $(0.04)
Diluted loss per share  $(0.25)  $(0.04)

 

The following common share equivalents are excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

 

   For the Nine Months Ended
September 30,
 
   2024   2023 
Warrants   12,030,000    12,030,000 
Total potentially dilutive shares   12,030,000    12,030,000 

 

Research and Development Cost

 

Research and development (R&D) costs are expensed as incurred. R&D costs are related to the Company’s internally funded development of the Company medical licenses and patents. The Company R&D costs were $0 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Share-based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 718 and No. 505. The Company issues restricted stock to employees and consultants for their services. Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued at the date of grant. These shares are considered fully vested and the fair market value is recognized as an expense in the period granted. The Company recognized consulting expenses and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services. For agreements requiring future services, the consulting expense is to be recognized ratably over the requisite service period.

 

The Company recorded share-based compensation of $1,990,366 and $100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Warrants

 

As of September 30, 2024, the fair value of the Representative Warrant liabilities was $21,200 based on the closing price of the warrants on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The fair value of the Representative Warrants was approximately $0.04 per Representative Warrant, which was based on the relative fair value to the Public Warrants. During the quarter, our Public and Private Warrants met the conditions necessary to adjust the exercise price and the redemption trigger price. As of September 30, 2024, the exercise price was $3.49 per warrant, and the redemption trigger price was $5.01. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the fair value of the Representative warrants decreased by $41,022.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, a warrant holder exercised 130,000 warrants issued as part of the Series D Preferred Shares related to the Business Combination, with a total value of $96,200, valued as of September 27, 2024.

NOTE 9 — STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

On June 21, 2024, the Business Combination, among other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, was completed. The transaction was accounted as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Redwoods was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the financial statements of the Combined Company represent a continuation of the financial statements of Klotho with the Transactions treated as the equivalent of Klotho issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, Redwoods was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Redwoods were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. See “NOTE 1 — Organization and Business Description” for detail.

 

Equity Incentive Plan

 

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company’s Board adopted, and the Company’s stockholders approved, the Equity Incentive Plan (“Equity Incentive Plan”). Although the Company does not have a formal policy with respect to the grant of equity incentive awards to the Company’s executive officers, the Company believes that equity awards provide Company’s executive officers with a strong link to the Company’s long-term performance, create an ownership culture and help to align the interests of the Company’s executives and the Company’s stockholders. In addition, Company believes that equity awards with a time-based vesting feature promote executive retention because this feature provides incentives to Company’s executive officers to remain in Klotho’s employment during the applicable vesting period. Accordingly, Company’s board of directors periodically reviews the equity incentive compensation of the Company’s executive officers and from time to time may grant equity incentive awards to them.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company granted 3,144,000 shares at a weighted average fair value of $0.94 per share, with various vesting schedules, resulting in share-based compensation expense of $1,952,851. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 stock-based compensation expense totaled $1,990,366.

Overview

 

Klotho Neurosciences, Inc. (“The Company” or “Klotho”) develops essential medicines for the treatment of chronic diseases – cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative disorders. The Company currently has acquired two licensed platforms: a generic drug portfolio and a biosimilar biologics platform that uses biologic therapies to treat cancer, and two proprietary, patented technologies involving the melanocortin receptor-binding molecules and a gene therapy platform which uses a gene therapy approach to introduce a therapeutic protein called “Klotho” inside the body to treat neurodegenerative diseases.

 

Effective September 17, 2024, the Company changed its legal name from ANEW Medical, Inc. to Klotho Neurosciences, Inc. This name change was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors to better reflect the strategic focus of its proprietary products. Throughout these financial statements, references to the ‘Company’ refer to Klotho Neurosciences, Inc., formerly known as ANEW or ANEW Public. Under certain circumstances, references to ANEW and ANEW Public have remained when useful in describing the sequence of events that occurred during the merger between Redwoods and ANEW.

 

As of May 30, 2023, Redwoods Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a special purpose acquisition company (“Redwoods”), Anew Medical Sub, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Merger Sub”) and ANEW Medical, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“ANEW”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement, which was amended as of November 4, 2023 (the “Business Combination Agreement”). On June 21, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), Merger Sub merged with and into ANEW, with ANEW continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Redwoods (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, on June 21, 2024, Redwoods filed a Second Amended Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State, and adopted the amended and restated bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”), which replaced Redwoods’ Charter and Bylaws in effect as of such time. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), Redwoods changed its name to “ANEW Medical, Inc.”

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

See Item 1, Note 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”

 

Results of Operations

 

For accounting purposes, the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination are treated as a reverse acquisition and, as such, the historical financial statements of the accounting acquirer Klotho will become the historical financial statements of Public ANEW. Under this method of accounting, Redwoods was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Redwoods were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

 

We have not generated any operating revenues to date. To date, the Company’s operations have consisted of acquiring our licensed platforms and patents, and planning for the Business Combination. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as our expenses associated with planning our research and clinical testing operations.

 

Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

 

Revenues

 

The Company had no revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses are composed of consultant fees and professional fees.

 

Our operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $2,870,932 compared to $123,737 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $2,747,195. The increase was primarily due to increased share-based compensation expense.

 

Our operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $3,688,584 compared to $520,589 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $3,167,995. The increase was primarily due to increased share-based compensation expense as well as expenses associated with our business combination including increases in third party consulting fees and professional fees.

 

Net Loss

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred a net loss of $2,959,426 compared to a net loss of $144,111 for the three month period ended September 30, 2023. The increase in net loss was primarily due to increased share-based compensation expense.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred a net loss of $4,083,109 compared to a net loss of $580,983 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $3,502,126.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

   Nine Months Ended
September 30,
 
   2024   2023 
         
Net cash used in operating activities  $(2,002,358)  $(247,406)
Net cash used in investing activities   (123,497)   (76,325)
Net cash provided by financing activities   2,173,942    250,000

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $2,002,358, compared to $247,406, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of approximately $1,755,000. The significant increase in cash used in operating activities is primarily attributable to increases in expenses related to the business combination and continued operating costs. We expect net cash used in operating activities to increase in the coming periods, until our products are able to produce meaningful revenue.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $123,497, compared to $76,325 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of approximately $47,000. The increase in cash used in investing activities is primarily attributable to licensing payments made in the period.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $2,173,942, which consisted of investments, proceeds from the business combination, as well as proceeds from related parties. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $250,000, from repayment of an advance to a shareholder.

 

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

 

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $50,895 and net working capital of ($827,783).

 

The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and incurred significant transaction costs related to the consummation of the Business Combination.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of approximately $51,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $8.5 million. The Company has incurred recurring losses, has experienced recurring negative operating cash flows, and requires significant cash resources to execute its business plans. The Company is dependent on obtaining additional working capital funding from the sale of equity and/or debt securities in order to continue to execute its development plans and continue operations. Without additional funding, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the date of these financial statements. 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2024. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

We are an “emerging growth company”, as defined in the JOBS Act, and, for as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to have our independent registered public accounting firm audit our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As an emerging growth company, we can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We intend to avail ourselves of these options. Once adopted, we must continue to report on that basis until we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company.

 

We will cease to be an emerging growth company upon the earliest of: (i) the end of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering; (ii) the first fiscal year after our annual gross revenue are $1.07 billion or more; (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or (iv) the end of any fiscal year in which the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700 million as of the end of the second quarter of that fiscal year. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive if we choose to rely on these exemptions. If, as a result of our decision to reduce future disclosure, investors find our common stock less attractive, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and the price of our common stock may be more volatile.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to make disclosures under this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

  

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of September 30, 2024. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (a) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms and (b) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding any required disclosure.

 

Management has identified control deficiencies regarding inadequate accounting resources, the lack of segregation of duties and the need for a stronger internal control environment. Our management believes that these material weaknesses are due to the small size of our accounting staff. The small size of our accounting outsourced staff may prevent adequate controls in the future due to the cost/benefit of such remediation.

 

To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of external legal and accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees, which will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.

 

These control deficiencies could result in a misstatement of account balances that would result in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to our financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analyses and procedures in order to conclude that our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were fairly stated in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that despite our material weaknesses, our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Exhibit 19.1

 

KLOTHO NEUROSCIENCES, INC.

CONFIDENTIALITY AND INSIDER TRADING POLICY

______

 

To: All Company Officers, Directors, Employees, Consultants and Temporary Insiders:

 

This Confidentiality and Insider Trading Policy (this “Policy”) describes the standards of Klotho Neurosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) on trading, and causing the trading of, the Company’s securities or securities of certain other publicly-traded companies while in the possession of confidential information.

 

One of the principal purposes of the federal securities laws is to prohibit so-called “insider trading.” Simply put, insider trading occurs when a person uses material non-public information obtained through involvement with the Company to make decisions to purchase, sell, give away or otherwise trade the Company’s securities or to provide that information to others outside the Company. Serious problems could be caused for the Company by unauthorized disclosure of internal information about the Company, including problems relating to improper trading in Company stock. Company personnel should not discuss internal Company matters or developments with anyone outside of the Company, except as required in the performance of regular corporate duties. Care should also be taken to avoid inadvertent disclosure of confidential information, such as through conversations that may be overheard.

 

The prohibition on disclosure of confidential information applies specifically (but not exclusively) to inquiries about the Company that may be made by the financial press, investment analysts or others in the financial community. It is important that all such communications on behalf of the Company be through an appropriately designated officer under carefully controlled circumstances. Unless you are expressly authorized to the contrary, if you receive any inquiries of this nature, you should decline comment and refer the inquirer to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer.

 

1. Our Policy Against Trading on Undisclosed Information. If a director, officer, employee, consultant or temporary insider has material non-public information relating to our Company, this Policy and governing law prohibit such person, or any related person, from buying or selling securities of the Company (or engaging in any other action to take advantage of that information or pass that information on to others) until the third business day after the date all material non-public information concerning the Company known to such person has been publicly announced in a press release or filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). This Policy and governing law also prohibit trading in the securities of other companies such as potential acquisition candidates or our customers or suppliers about which you have material, non-lpublic information as a result of your employment or you consulting assignment.

 

 

 

 

Transactions that may be necessary or justifiable for independent reasons (such as the need to raise money for an emergency expenditure) are no exception. Even the appearance of any improper transaction must be avoided to preserve our reputation for adhering to the highest standards of conduct.

 

Material information. Material information is any information that a reasonable investor would consider important in a decision to buy, hold or sell stock – in short, any information that could reasonably affect the price of the stock. It is not possible to define all categories of material information; however, common examples of information that will frequently be regarded as material are:

 

(i)projections of future earnings or losses, including changes in earnings estimates;

 

(ii)unusual gains or losses in major operations;

 

(iii)news of a pending or proposed merger, acquisition or tender offer;

 

(iv)news of significant sales of assets or the disposition of a subsidiary;

 

(v)significant write-downs in assets or increases in revenues;

 

(vi)developments regarding significant litigation or government agency investigations;

 

(vii)changes in dividend policies or the declaration of a stock split or the offering of additional securities;

 

(viii)changes in management;

 

(ix)significant new products or discoveries;

 

(x)changes in debt ratings;

 

(xi)offerings of Company securities;

 

(xii)impending bankruptcy or financial liquidity problems; and

 

(xiii)the gain or loss of a substantial customer or supplier.

 

Either positive or negative information may be material. Material information is not limited to historical facts but may also include projections and forecasts. With respect to a future event, such as a merger, acquisition or introduction of a new product, the point at which negotiations or product development are determined to be material is determined by balancing the probability that the event will occur against the magnitude of the effect the event would have on a company's operations or stock price should it occur. Thus, information concerning an event that would have a large effect on stock price, such as a merger, may be material even if the possibility that the event will occur is relatively small. When in doubt about whether particular non-public information is material, presume it is material. If you are unsure whether information is material, you should consult the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer before making any decision to disclose such information (other than to persons who need to know it) or to trade in or recommend securities to which that information relates.

 

(Klotho Neurosciences Insider Trading Policy July 2024)2

 

 

Non-Public Information. Insider trading prohibitions come into play only when you possess information that is material and "non-public." The fact that information has been disclosed to a few members of the public does not make it public for insider trading purposes. To be "public" the information must have been disseminated in a manner designed to reach investors generally, and the investors must be given the opportunity to absorb the information.

 

Non-Public information may include:

 

(i)information available to a select group of analysts or brokers or institutional investors;

 

(ii)undisclosed facts that are the subject of rumors, even if the rumors are widely circulated; and

 

(iii)information that has been entrusted to the Company on a confidential basis until a public announcement of the information has been made and enough time has elapsed for the market to respond to a public announcement of the information (normally three business days).

 

As with questions of materiality, if you are not sure whether information is considered public, you should either consult with the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, or assume that the information is "non-public" and treat it as confidential.

 

When Information is Public. As you can appreciate, it is also improper for an officer, director or employee to enter a trade immediately after the company has made public announcement of material information, including earnings releases. Because the Company's shareholders and the investing public should be afforded the time to receive the information and act upon it, you should not engage in any transactions until the third business day after the information has been released.

 

Twenty-Twenty Hindsight. Remember, if your securities transactions become the subject of scrutiny, they will be viewed after-the-fact with the benefit of hindsight. As a result, before engaging in any transaction you should carefully consider how regulators and others might view your transaction in hindsight.

 

(Klotho Neurosciences Insider Trading Policy July 2024)3

 

 

Transactions By Family Members. The very same restrictions that apply to you also apply to your family members who reside with you (including a spouse, a child, a child away at college, stepchildren, grandchildren, parents, stepparents, grandparents, siblings and in-laws), anyone else who lives in your household, and any family members who do not live in your household but whose transactions in Company securities are directed by you or are subject to your influence or control, such as parents or children who consult with you before they trade in Company securities (collectively referred to as “Family Members”). Employees are expected to be responsible for the compliance of their Family Members.

 

Transactions by Entities that You Influence or Control. This Policy applies to any entities that you influence or control, including any corporations, partnerships or trusts (collectively referred to as “Controlled Entities”), and transactions by these Controlled Entities should be treated for the purposes of this Policy and applicable securities laws as if they were for your own account.

 

Tipping Information to Others. Whether the information is proprietary information about our Company or information that could have an impact on our stock price, employees must not pass the information on to others. Serious penalties apply, whether or not you derive any benefit from another's actions.

 

Inside Information Regarding Other Companies. This Policy and the guidelines described herein also apply to material, non-public information relating to other companies, including the Company’s customers, vendors or suppliers (“Business Partners”), when that information is obtained in the course of employment with, or other services performed on behalf of, the Company. Civil and criminal penalties, and termination of employment, may result from trading on material, non-public information regarding the Company’s Business Partners. All employees should treat material, non-public information about the Company’s Business Partners with the same care required with respect to information related directly to the Company.

 

Post-Termination Transactions. This Policy, except for pre-clearance procedures specified in this section, continues to apply to transactions in Company securities even after termination of service to the Company. If an individual is in possession of material, non-public information when his or her service terminates, that individual may not trade in Company securities until that information has become public or is no longer material.

 

Black-Out Periods. Each of the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer has the authority, when he or she deems it necessary or advisable because of developments known to the Company and not yet disclosed to the public or for other reasons, to prohibit members of the Board of Directors, officers and any other employees from transacting in Company securities. The Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer will notify you by email of such a prohibition (referred to as a “Black-Out Period”), and the Black-Out Period shall continue for as long as the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer specifies. In the event of a Black-Out Period, affected persons may not engage in any transaction involving the purchase or sale of the Company’ securities during the Black-Out Period and may not disclose to others the fact of their transaction suspension. If a Black-Out Period is imposed, you and your related persons MAY NOT execute transactions even if the Trading Window (as defined below) is then otherwise open for other employees.

 

(Klotho Neurosciences Insider Trading Policy July 2024)4

 

 

Trading Window. The following applies to:

 

All members of the Board of Directors

 

Executive Officers (those officers who have been notified that they are subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 – namely the reporting of beneficial ownership on Form 3’s, 4’s, and 5’s and prohibition on short swing profits), and

 

Certain employees and consultants of the Company, who have been separately notified that these provisions apply to them, will be reviewed periodically, or when other significant events occur (each, a “Key Employee”). Individuals will be added or removed from coverage as necessary. You will be notified if there is any change in your status.

 

To increase compliance with the insider trading laws, the Company has created a Trading Window policy. The Trading Window opens at the close of business on the second trading day following the date the financial results for a particular fiscal quarter or year are disclosed to the general public and closes at the close of business on the fourteenth day of the third calendar month of that fiscal quarter.

 

All members of the Board of Directors, Executive Officers and Key Employees may not transact in the Company’s securities other than during the Trading Window.

 

The preferred period for transacting in the Company’s securities, assuming the absence of material non-public Information at the time, is generally the first ten days of each Trading Window.

 

You will be notified quarterly when the Trading Window opens and closes, you should know, however, that even during the Trading Window, if you have knowledge of material non- public information concerning the Company, you may not transact in the Company’s securities until the close of business of the second trading day following the date such information has been disclosed to the general public or ceases to be material non-public Information. Transacting in the Company’s securities during the Trading Window should not be considered a “safe harbor,” and you should use good judgment at all times.

 

Pre-Clearance of Transactions. Directors, Executive Officers and Key Employees may only transact in the Company’s securities when the Trading Window is open (and assuming a Black- Out Period has not been imposed and they are not otherwise aware of material non-public Information), and then only with the prior approval of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer. The information that must be provided when requesting pre-clearance is set forth on attached Exhibit A. The Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer is under no obligation to approve a transaction submitted for pre-clearance, and may determine not to permit the transaction. If a person seeks pre-clearance and permission to engage in the transaction is denied, then he or she should refrain from initiating any transaction in Company securities, and should not inform any other person of the restriction.

 

(Klotho Neurosciences Insider Trading Policy July 2024)5

 

 

When a request for pre-clearance is made, the requestor should carefully consider whether he or she may be aware of any material, non-public information about the Company, and should describe fully those circumstances to the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer. The requestor should also indicate whether he or she has effected any non-exempt “opposite-way” transactions within the past six months, and should be prepared to report the proposed transaction on an appropriate Form 4 or Form 5. The requestor should also be prepared to comply with SEC Rule 144 and file Form 144, if necessary, at the time of any sale.

 

Pre-cleared trades must be effected within five business days of receipt of pre- clearance unless an exception is granted. Transactions not effected within the time limit would be subject to pre-clearance again. The requestor receiving clearance for a trade should notify the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the completion of the transaction.

 

Other Transactions. Employees who are not officers, directors or 10% shareholders are not prohibited under the federal securities laws from trading in the Company's securities on a short-term basis. However, as a matter of Company policy, the following transactions involving Company securities should not be undertaken unless pre-cleared with the Chief Executive Officer: short sales, margin purchases, or purchases or sales of puts or calls.

 

Company Assistance. If you have any questions concerning specific transactions in stock of the Company, you are encouraged to contact the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer. However, the ultimate responsibility for adhering to this Policy and avoiding improper transactions rests with you.

 

2. Prohibition Against Disclosure of Nonpublic Information. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Authorized Personnel”) are authorized to communicate with brokers, dealers, analysts, institutional investors, shareholders, affiliates of the foregoing and any other person that has purchased or sold, or may reasonably be expected to purchase or sell, any common stock of the Company (collectively, “Securities Professionals and Shareholders”). Other employees, directors and temporary insiders are not authorized to provide oral or written information to Securities Professionals and Shareholders, except at the express direction of the Authorized Personnel. If you receive any inquiries from any Securities Professionals or Shareholders, you should decline comment and refer the inquirer to one or more of the Authorized Personnel.

 

(Klotho Neurosciences Insider Trading Policy July 2024)6

 

 

If you have any doubt as to your responsibilities under these guidelines, seek clarification and guidance from the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer before you act.

 

Do not try to resolve uncertainties on your own.

 

We will expect the strictest compliance with these procedures by all personnel at every level. As set forth below, failure to observe them may result in serious legal difficulties for you, as well as the Company.

 

3. Certain Exceptions. The Policy set forth in Section 1 does not apply in the case of the following transactions, except as specifically noted:

 

Stock Incentive Plan. For purposes of this Policy, the Company considers the exercise of stock options for cash under the Company’s stock options plans or the purchase of shares under any Company employee stock purchase plan or otherwise from the Company (but not the sale of any such shares acquired on the exercise of the option or the purchase) exempt from this Policy unless the Company is aware of material, non-public information that it cannot disclose to the participant, because the other party to the transaction is the Company itself and the price does not vary with the market but is fixed by the terms of the option agreement or the plan.

 

10b5-1 Programs. Pursuant to SEC Rule 10b5-1, directors, officers and employees of the Company may establish written programs at a time at which they do not have material, non-public-information which permit (i) automatic trading of the Company’s stock through a third-party broker or (ii) trading of the Company’s stock by an independent person (e.g., an investment banker) who is not aware of material, non-public-information at the time of a trade. All programs shall be subject to the restrictions and limitations imposed by SEC Rule 10b5-1. These rules are technical in nature and a 10b5-1 program should only be established with a broker or other securities professional with experience and expertise in this area. Each program (or the form of program established by a broker or other third party) must be reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer prior to establishment, to confirm compliance with this policy and the applicable securities laws. Once a program is implemented in accordance with this Section 3, trades pursuant to such program shall not be subject to the limitations and restriction set forth in other sections of this Policy. If properly established and implemented, trading pursuant to a program may occur even when the person on whose behalf such trade is made is aware of material, non-public-information.

 

4. Violations of Insider Trading Laws. Penalties for trading on or communicating material non-public information can be severe, both for individuals involved in such unlawful conduct and their employers and supervisors, and may include jail terms, criminal fines, civil penalties and civil enforcement injunctions. Given the severity of the potential penalties, compliance with this Policy is absolutely mandatory.

 

Legal Penalties. A person who violates insider trading laws by engaging in transactions in a company's securities when he or she has material, non-public information can be sentenced to a substantial jail term and required to pay a criminal penalty of several times the amount of profits gained or losses avoided.

 

In addition, a person who tips others may also be liable for transactions by the tippees to whom he or she has disclosed material non-public information. Tippers can be subject to the same penalties and sanctions as the tippees, and the SEC has imposed large penalties even when the tipper did not profit from the transaction.

 

The SEC can also seek substantial civil penalties from any person who, at the time of an insider trading violation, "directly or indirectly controlled the person who committed such violation," which would apply to the Company and/or management and supervisory personnel. These control persons may be held liable for up to the greater of $1 million or three times the amount of the profits gained or losses avoided. Even for violations that result in a small or no profit, the SEC can seek penalties from a company and/or its management and supervisory personnel as control persons.

 

Company-imposed Penalties. Employees who violate this Policy may be subject to disciplinary action by the Company, including dismissal for cause. Any exceptions to the Policy, if permitted, may only be granted by the Chief Executive Officer and must be provided before any activity contrary to the above requirements takes place.

ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

Klotho Neurosciences, Inc. (“The Company” or “Klotho”), formerly known as ANEW Medical, Inc., develops essential medicines for the treatment of chronic diseases – cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative disorders. The Company currently has acquired two licensed platforms: a generic drug portfolio and a biosimilar biologics platform that uses biologic therapies to treat cancer, and two proprietary, patented technologies involving the melanocortin receptor-binding molecules and a gene therapy platform which uses a gene therapy approach to introduce a therapeutic protein called “Klotho” inside the body to treat neurodegenerative diseases.

 

On September 12, 2022, the Company acquired five market-approved anti-cancer drugs approved for sale in Germany. The Market Authorizations (MA’s) are for four of the drugs that comprise the “FOLFOX” and “FOLFIRI” multi-drug regimens used in treatment of metastatic colorectal and gastric cancer and in two of the drugs that are used to treat metastatic lung cancer. The drugs are important in the treatment of many solid tumors in both childhood and adult cancers. Previously, the Company acquired two off-patent bio generic antibodies from Reliance Life Sciences (RLS), the life science arm of Reliance Industries Pvt Ltd. of Navi Mumbai, India.

 

During January 2023, the Company acquired a treatment for small drug molecules that bind to the melanocortin receptors on human cells and affect skin pigmentation.

 

Effective July 24, 2024, the Company changed its legal name from ANEW Medical, Inc. to Klotho Neurosciences, Inc. This name change was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors to better reflect the strategic focus of its proprietary products. Throughout these financial statements, references to the “Company” refer to Klotho Neurosciences, Inc., formerly known as ANEW. Under certain circumstances, references to ANEW have remained when useful in describing the sequence of events that occurred during the merger between Redwoods and ANEW.

 

Business Combinations

 

As of May 30, 2023, Redwoods Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a special purpose acquisition company (“Redwoods”), Anew Medical Sub, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Merger Sub”) and ANEW Medical, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“ANEW”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement, which was amended as of November 4, 2023 (the “Business Combination Agreement”). On June 21, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), Merger Sub merged with and into ANEW, with ANEW continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Redwoods (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, on June 21, 2024, Redwoods filed its Second Amended Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State, and adopted the amended and restated bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”), which replaced Redwoods’ Charter and Bylaws in effect as of such time. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), Redwoods changed its name to “ANEW Medical, Inc.”

 

For accounting purposes, the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination are treated as a reverse acquisition and, as such, the historical financial statements of the accounting acquirer ANEW (Wyoming) will become the historical financial statements of the Company. Under this method of accounting, Redwoods was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Redwoods were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

 

Recapitalization

  

In connection with the merger, the Company issued six million shares in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of ANEW. At $10 per Redwood’s share, the valuation of ANEW was $60 million.

 

Immediately after giving effect to the Business Combination, 15,130,393 shares of Company Common Stock were outstanding, from which 2,875,000 remain in escrow for the Redwoods founders. In addition, there were 12,030,000 warrants immediately exercisable and composed of 11,500,000 public warrants and 530,000 private warrants. Following the Closing, on June 21, 2024, the Company’s Common Stock and Warrants began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbols “WENA” and “WENAW,” respectively. The Public Units of Redwoods automatically separated into the component securities upon consummation of the Business Combination and, as a result, no longer trade as a separate security. Further, upon closing of the Business Combination on June 21, 2024, the Company received approximately $181,339 in net cash proceeds. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company determined there was an additional approximate $8,500 cash.

 

At Closing, pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement and after giving effect to the redemptions of shares of Redwoods Common Stock: 

 

The total consideration paid at Closing (the “Merger Consideration”) by Redwoods to ANEW Medical, Inc. security holders was 6,000,000 shares of the Company common stock valued at $60 million (the “Consideration Shares”), based on an implied ANEW equity value of $60,000,000 valued at $10 per share;

 

Each share of ANEW Medical Common Stock, if any, that was owned by Redwoods, Merger Sub, ANEW Medical, Inc. or any other affiliate of Redwoods immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) was automatically cancelled and retired without any conversion or consideration;

 

Each share of Merger Sub common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Merger Sub Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one newly issued share of Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation.

 

In connection with the Merger, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note and Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with certain accredited investors (the “Redwoods PIPE Investors”) for an aggregate of 750,000 shares (bonus free trading shares and restricted shares issued at closing), with each unit consisting of one share of Company common stock (the “PIPE Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 (the “Redwoods PIPE Financing”). Upon the closing of the Redwoods PIPE Financing (which closed in connection with the closing of the Merger), the $2,000,000 were used by the Company to settle transaction costs. The Company received approximately $181,339 in net cash proceeds and recorded a receivable of $50,000 from the Redwoods PIPE Financing funds.

 

In connection with the Merger, the Company entered convertible promissory note and Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with certain accredited investors (the “ANEW PIPE Investors”) for an aggregate of 854,257 units (bonus free trading shares and restricted shares issued at closing), with each unit consisting of one share of Company common stock (the “PIPE Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 (the “ANEW PIPE Financing”). Upon the closing of the ANEW PIPE Financing (which closed in connection with the closing of the Merger), $1,000,000 was used by the Company to settle transaction costs. The Company received approximately $950,000 in cash proceeds and recorded a receivable of $50,000 from the ANEW PIPE Financing funds.

 

Concurrent with Closing, certain ANEW stockholders may be entitled to up to an additional 5,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock (the “Contingent Consideration Shares”), upon the following conditions being met:

 

  (i) 2,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company’s common stock achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $12.50 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first three years following the Closing;

 

  (ii) 2,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company’s common stock achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $15.00 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first three years following the Closing; and

 

  (iii) 1,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company’s common stock achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $20.00 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first five years following the Closing.

  

In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the equity structure has been restated in all comparable periods up to June 21, 2024 and reflected as such as of September 30, 2024, to reflect the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, issued to ANEW’s stockholders in connection with the merger. As such, the shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share related to ANEW’s common stock prior to the merger have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the merger.  

 

For accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Redwoods were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. In connection with the Merger, in addition to the warrants, ANEW Medical assumed $589,081 in cash and $568,111 in income tax payable. The income tax payable of $568,111 was settled in full as of September 30, 2024 from the assumed $589,081 cash.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of approximately $51,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $8.5 million. The Company has incurred recurring losses, has experienced recurring negative operating cash flows, and requires significant cash resources to execute its business plans. The Company is dependent on obtaining additional working capital funding from the sale of equity and/or debt securities in order to continue to execute its development plans and continue operations. Without additional funding, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the date of these financial statements. 

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company prepared the Financial Statements, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to quarterly reporting on Form 10-Q and reflect, in management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been consolidated or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2023 Annual Report. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

 

Reclassification

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the current-year financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations and were not material.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand, demand deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments placed with banks, which have original maturities of three months or less and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The assets and liabilities are valued using a fair market basis as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. The Company uses a three-level hierarchy established by the FASB that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). The levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

  Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
     
  Level 3: Unobservable inputs with little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the most conservative level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Intangible Assets

 

The Company’s intangible assets consist of acquired medical licenses and patents.

 

The Company acquires medical licenses for the treatment of medical conditions to market and sell in the future. The initial asset cost is the cost to acquire the license. Once in use, the Company amortizes the license cost over the useful life using the straight-line method. As part of the licensing agreements, the Company acquires patents and records the cost to acquire patents as the initial asset cost. Once the patents are approved and in use, assuming no litigations expenses, the Company amortizes the patent cost over the useful life using the straight-line method. The amortization period will not exceed the lifespan of the protection afforded by the patent. If the expected useful life of the patent is even shorter, the Company will use the useful life for amortization purposes. Thus, the shorter of a patent’s useful life or legal life will be used for the amortization period.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

 

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived and intangible assets periodically, or at least annually, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors considered important, which could trigger an impairment review, include the following: significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future cash flows; significant changes in the manner of use of the assets or the strategy of the overall business; and significant negative industry trends. When management determines that the carrying value of long-lived and intangible assets may not be recoverable, impairment is measured as the excess of the assets’ carrying value over the estimated fair value. Management is not aware of any other impairment charges that may currently be required; however, the Company cannot predict the occurrence of events that might adversely affect the reported values in the future. On an annual basis, the Company tests the long-lived and intangible assets for impairment based on the projected net present value of cash flows for each asset. Prior to the annual impairment test, if circumstances change and a long-lived or intangible asset is deemed impaired, an impairment loss will be immediately recognized in the statements of operations. At December 31, 2023, the date of the last impairment test, it was determined that the estimated fair value of the intangible assets exceeded the carrying value of the assets by 50%, indicating no impairment.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company is in a pre-revenue state and does not generate revenue. When the Company commences to derive revenue, those contracts will be accounted in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic ASC 606).

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASU 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, income tax expense is recognized as the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of available evidence it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

The Company is subject to Income tax filings requirements in U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. The Company’s tax returns for years from 2021, 2022, and 2023 are subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities.

 

The Company reports income tax related interest and penalties within the income tax line item on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company likewise reports the reversal of income tax-related interest and penalties within such line item to the extent the Company resolves the liabilities for uncertain tax positions in a manner favorable to the accruals.

 

Net Loss Per Share (Basic and Diluted)

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, plus the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued, if dilutive.

 

The following table details the net loss per share calculation, reconciles between basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, and presents the potentially dilutive shares that are excluded from the calculation of the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

Basic loss per share  $(0.25)  $(0.04)
Diluted loss per share  $(0.25)  $(0.04)

 

The following common share equivalents are excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

 

   For the Nine Months Ended
September 30,
 
   2024   2023 
Warrants   12,030,000    12,030,000 
Total potentially dilutive shares   12,030,000    12,030,000 

 

Research and Development Cost

 

Research and development (R&D) costs are expensed as incurred. R&D costs are related to the Company’s internally funded development of the Company medical licenses and patents. The Company R&D costs were $0 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Share-based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 718 and No. 505. The Company issues restricted stock to employees and consultants for their services. Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued at the date of grant. These shares are considered fully vested and the fair market value is recognized as an expense in the period granted. The Company recognized consulting expenses and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services. For agreements requiring future services, the consulting expense is to be recognized ratably over the requisite service period.

 

The Company recorded share-based compensation of $1,990,366 and $100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

 

Warrants

 

As of September 30, 2024, the fair value of the Representative Warrant liabilities was $21,200 based on the closing price of the warrants on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The fair value of the Representative Warrants was approximately $0.04 per Representative Warrant, which was based on the relative fair value to the Public Warrants. During the quarter, our Public and Private Warrants met the conditions necessary to adjust the exercise price and the redemption trigger price. As of September 30, 2024, the exercise price was $3.49 per warrant, and the redemption trigger price was $5.01. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the fair value of the Representative warrants decreased by $41,022.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, a warrant holder exercised 130,000 warrants issued as part of the Series D Preferred Shares related to the Business Combination, with a total value of $96,200, valued as of September 27, 2024.

STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

NOTE 9 — STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

On June 21, 2024, the Business Combination, among other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, was completed. The transaction was accounted as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Redwoods was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the financial statements of the Combined Company represent a continuation of the financial statements of Klotho with the Transactions treated as the equivalent of Klotho issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, Redwoods was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of Redwoods, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Redwoods were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. See “NOTE 1 — Organization and Business Description” for detail.

 

Equity Incentive Plan

 

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company’s Board adopted, and the Company’s stockholders approved, the Equity Incentive Plan (“Equity Incentive Plan”). Although the Company does not have a formal policy with respect to the grant of equity incentive awards to the Company’s executive officers, the Company believes that equity awards provide Company’s executive officers with a strong link to the Company’s long-term performance, create an ownership culture and help to align the interests of the Company’s executives and the Company’s stockholders. In addition, Company believes that equity awards with a time-based vesting feature promote executive retention because this feature provides incentives to Company’s executive officers to remain in Klotho’s employment during the applicable vesting period. Accordingly, Company’s board of directors periodically reviews the equity incentive compensation of the Company’s executive officers and from time to time may grant equity incentive awards to them.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company granted 3,144,000 shares at a weighted average fair value of $0.94 per share, with various vesting schedules, resulting in share-based compensation expense of $1,952,851. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 stock-based compensation expense totaled $1,990,366.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Going Concern

Going Concern

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of approximately $51,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $8.5 million. The Company has incurred recurring losses, has experienced recurring negative operating cash flows, and requires significant cash resources to execute its business plans. The Company is dependent on obtaining additional working capital funding from the sale of equity and/or debt securities in order to continue to execute its development plans and continue operations. Without additional funding, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the date of these financial statements. 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company prepared the Financial Statements, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to quarterly reporting on Form 10-Q and reflect, in management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been consolidated or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2023 Annual Report. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

Reclassification

Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the current-year financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations and were not material.

Emerging Growth Company

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand, demand deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments placed with banks, which have original maturities of three months or less and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The assets and liabilities are valued using a fair market basis as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. The Company uses a three-level hierarchy established by the FASB that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). The levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

  Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
     
  Level 3: Unobservable inputs with little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the most conservative level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets consist of acquired medical licenses and patents.

The Company acquires medical licenses for the treatment of medical conditions to market and sell in the future. The initial asset cost is the cost to acquire the license. Once in use, the Company amortizes the license cost over the useful life using the straight-line method. As part of the licensing agreements, the Company acquires patents and records the cost to acquire patents as the initial asset cost. Once the patents are approved and in use, assuming no litigations expenses, the Company amortizes the patent cost over the useful life using the straight-line method. The amortization period will not exceed the lifespan of the protection afforded by the patent. If the expected useful life of the patent is even shorter, the Company will use the useful life for amortization purposes. Thus, the shorter of a patent’s useful life or legal life will be used for the amortization period.

Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived and intangible assets periodically, or at least annually, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors considered important, which could trigger an impairment review, include the following: significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future cash flows; significant changes in the manner of use of the assets or the strategy of the overall business; and significant negative industry trends. When management determines that the carrying value of long-lived and intangible assets may not be recoverable, impairment is measured as the excess of the assets’ carrying value over the estimated fair value. Management is not aware of any other impairment charges that may currently be required; however, the Company cannot predict the occurrence of events that might adversely affect the reported values in the future. On an annual basis, the Company tests the long-lived and intangible assets for impairment based on the projected net present value of cash flows for each asset. Prior to the annual impairment test, if circumstances change and a long-lived or intangible asset is deemed impaired, an impairment loss will be immediately recognized in the statements of operations. At December 31, 2023, the date of the last impairment test, it was determined that the estimated fair value of the intangible assets exceeded the carrying value of the assets by 50%, indicating no impairment.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company is in a pre-revenue state and does not generate revenue. When the Company commences to derive revenue, those contracts will be accounted in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic ASC 606).

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASU 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, income tax expense is recognized as the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of available evidence it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company is subject to Income tax filings requirements in U.S. federal and various state jurisdictions. The Company’s tax returns for years from 2021, 2022, and 2023 are subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities.

The Company reports income tax related interest and penalties within the income tax line item on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company likewise reports the reversal of income tax-related interest and penalties within such line item to the extent the Company resolves the liabilities for uncertain tax positions in a manner favorable to the accruals.

Net Loss Per Share (Basic and Diluted)

Net Loss Per Share (Basic and Diluted)

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, plus the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the common share equivalents had been issued, if dilutive.

 

The following table details the net loss per share calculation, reconciles between basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, and presents the potentially dilutive shares that are excluded from the calculation of the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

Research and Development Cost

Research and Development Cost

Research and development (R&D) costs are expensed as incurred. R&D costs are related to the Company’s internally funded development of the Company medical licenses and patents. The Company R&D costs were $0 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Share-based Compensation

Share-based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 718 and No. 505. The Company issues restricted stock to employees and consultants for their services. Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued at the date of grant. These shares are considered fully vested and the fair market value is recognized as an expense in the period granted. The Company recognized consulting expenses and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services. For agreements requiring future services, the consulting expense is to be recognized ratably over the requisite service period.

The Company recorded share-based compensation of $1,990,366 and $100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

 

Warrants

Warrants

As of September 30, 2024, the fair value of the Representative Warrant liabilities was $21,200 based on the closing price of the warrants on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The fair value of the Representative Warrants was approximately $0.04 per Representative Warrant, which was based on the relative fair value to the Public Warrants. During the quarter, our Public and Private Warrants met the conditions necessary to adjust the exercise price and the redemption trigger price. As of September 30, 2024, the exercise price was $3.49 per warrant, and the redemption trigger price was $5.01. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the fair value of the Representative warrants decreased by $41,022.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, a warrant holder exercised 130,000 warrants issued as part of the Series D Preferred Shares related to the Business Combination, with a total value of $96,200, valued as of September 27, 2024.
