Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Business
Bluejay Diagnostics, Inc. (“Bluejay” and/or
the “Company”) is a medical diagnostics company focused on improving patient outcomes in critical care settings. The Company
is working on developing rapid tests using whole blood on its Symphony technology platform (“Symphony”), which consists of
an analyzer and single-use protein detection cartridges that have a function of automatic stepwise feeding of reagent. The Company does
not yet have regulatory clearance for Symphony, and it will need to receive regulatory authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(the “FDA”) to be marketed as a diagnostic product in the United States. The Company has completed the development of the
Symphony analyzer. The Company is planning to begin cartridge redevelopment through a third-party contractor who would manage such redevelopment.
Such redevelopment is intended to address several technical challenges to bring Symphony to a level consistent with necessary performance
and quality requirements. After redevelopment, the Company plans to have manufacturing of the Symphony cartridges occur at a Contract
Manufacturing Organization (“CMO”). To achieve its plan, the Company expects to need to raise at least $
The Company’s Symphony platform is a combination of Bluejay’s intellectual property (“IP”) and exclusively licensed and patented IP on the Symphony technology that the Company believes, if cleared, authorized, or approved by the FDA, can provide a solution to a significant market need in the United States. The Symphony device is designed to produce laboratory-quality results in 20 minutes in critical care settings, including Intensive Care Units (“ICUs”) and Emergency Rooms (“ERs”), where rapid and reliable results are required.
The Company’s first product candidate, the Symphony IL-6 test, is an immunoassay for the measurement of interleukin-6 (IL-6) to be used for the monitoring of disease progression in critical care settings. The Company is currently focused on pursuing the Symphony IL-6 test in the context of sepsis. IL-6 is a clinically established inflammatory biomarker, and is considered a ‘first-responder,’ for assessment of severity of infection and inflammation across many disease indications, including sepsis. A current challenge of healthcare professionals is the excessive time and cost associated determining a patient’s level of severity at triage and the Company believes that its Symphony IL-6 test, if ultimately successful and approved, could have the ability to consistently monitor this critical care biomarker with rapid results.
If the Company succeeds with the foregoing plan, in the future it hopes to develop additional tests for Symphony, including tests for myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure (cardiac biomarkers hsTNT and NT pro-BNP) as well as other tests using the Symphony platform.
The Company was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on March 20, 2015. Its headquarters are located in Acton, Massachusetts.
On June 4, 2021, the Company formed Bluejay Spinco, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for purposes of further development of the Company’s ALLEREYE diagnostic test. ALLEREYE is a point-of-care device offering healthcare providers a solution for diagnosing Allergic Conjunctivitis. The Company currently is not actively pursuing development of the ALLEREYE diagnostic test.
5
FDA Regulatory Strategy
The Company’s current regulatory strategy is designed to support commercialization of Symphony in the United States pending marketing authorization from the FDA. In May 2023, the Company submitted a pre-submission application to the FDA presenting study designs to validate Symphony IL-6 for use with hospitalized sepsis patients. We participated in a pre-submission meeting with the FDA on August 11, 2023, and at the meeting the FDA provided feedback on the new study design, determined that the submission of a 510(k) is the appropriate premarket submission pathway, and requested that certain data be provided in the 510(k). Based on this feedback, the Company determined to proceed on this basis, which considers the FDA’s feedback.
In the second quarter of 2024, the Company completed a multicenter SYmphony IL-6 MONitoring Sepsis (“SYMON”) clinical study investigating the role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in patients diagnosed with sepsis and septic shock. This prospective study assessed the performance of IL-6 upon initial presentation to the intensive care unit (ICU). A primary analysis of the SYMON-I pilot clinical study (registered clinical trial number NCT06181604) highlighted that IL-6 levels within 24 hours of sepsis or septic shock diagnosis and admission to the ICU may predict patient mortality out to 28 days. Furthermore, a secondary outcome of the SYMON-I study showed that IL-6 levels within 24 hours of sepsis or septic shock diagnosis and admission to the ICU is a predictor of patient mortality during their hospitalization. Other secondary outcomes showed that lactate and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA), standard clinical tests used for sepsis and septic shock patients, were not predictors of patient mortality out to 28 days. We believe that the findings underscore the potential importance of IL-6 as a predictor and provide new insights into the potential pathways for improving sepsis outcomes. In the third quarter of 2024, we initiated the SYMON-II pivotal clinical study to validate the findings of the SYMON-I pilot clinical study.
Using the data analysis from the SYMON-I pilot clinical study, the Company initiated the SYMON-II pivotal clinical study in the third quarter of 2024. The SYMON II clinical study has three components: (1) collection, freezing, and biobanking of patient samples, (2) measuring IL-6 concentrations in the biobanked samples near the end of patient enrollment or after the patient enrollment has completed, and (3) analysis of the IL-6 data with the patient outcomes to see if the established IL-6 cutoff value has been validated for 28-day all-cause mortality. Patient enrollment started during the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company’s goal is to use the Symphony IL-6 test to complete the testing in the SYMON-II clinical trial.
If the Company is able to complete the SYMON-II clinical study and the results are positive, the Company intends to use the data generated from SYMON-II to support a 510(k) application to the FDA. This application is currently expected to be based on the following intended use: “Symphony IL-6 is intended for use to determine the IL-6 concentration as an aid in assessing the cumulative 28-day risk of all-cause mortality in conjunction with other laboratory findings and clinical assessments for patients diagnosed with sepsis or septic shock in the ICU.” The Company also plans to present the SYMON-I and SYMON-II results at future national scientific meetings and publish them in peer-reviewed journals. Subject to achieving needed funding and successfully addressing the technical challenges that are described above, the Company’s goal is to be in position to submit a 510(k) regulatory application to the FDA in 2027, with an objective of achieving FDA approval thereafter.
6
Product Manufacturing
The Company plans to manufacture its analyzers through Sanyoseiko Co. Ltd. (“Sanyoseiko”), as a contract manufacturing organizations (“CMO”), and the Company has a contract with Sanyoseiko for this purpose.
Once redeveloped, the Company also plans to manufacture its cartridges through Sanyoseiko or another suitable CMO. The Company currently does not have a contract in place for the re-development or manufacture of the cartridges.
Sanyoseiko had been selected as the Company’s CMO for the analyzers due to their core competencies in manufacturing and quality system recognized by the FDA. Sanyoseiko’s facilities are located in Japan. The Company currently licenses the technology for the Symphony cartridges from Toray Industries, Inc. (“Toray”). The Company’s license grants it exclusive global marketing rights, with the exception of Japan. Bluejay holds the rights to manufacture the analyzers and the cartridges. The Company is evaluating the impact of tariffs on its operations.
Risks and Uncertainties
As noted above, Bluejay will be reliant upon CMOs to provide analyzers and, if and once redeveloped, cartridges, in sufficient quantity and quality to complete the validations for our FDA application. Our FDA application submission could be delayed if the Company encounters any material supply interruptions. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain necessary regulatory authorization for the manufacturing or marketing of the Symphony in the United States or elsewhere. There also can be no assurance that we will successfully complete any clinical evaluations necessary to receive regulatory approvals, or that the clinical study will demonstrate sufficient safety and effectiveness of the Symphony IL-6 test. The failure to adequately demonstrate the clinical performance of the Symphony IL-6 test could delay or prevent regulatory approval, which could prevent or result in delays to market launch and could materially harm our business.
In addition to the FDA regulatory strategy risks and uncertainties, the Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other companies in its industry, including rapid technological change, competition from larger biotechnology companies and dependence on key personnel. The Company is also impacted by inflationary pressures and global supply chain disruptions currently impacting many companies. Additional risk and uncertainties regarding the Company are described in “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and in “Part II – Item 1A Risk Factors” of the Company’s subsequently filed Form 10-Qs.

Reverse Stock Splits and Increase to Authorized Capital
On July 21, 2023, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its
shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-20 (the “July 2023 Reverse Stock Split”). On June 20, 2024, the Company effected
a second reverse stock split of its shares of common stock at a ratio of
At our annual meeting of stockholders on June 18, 2025, our stockholders provided our Board of Directors with authority to implement a reverse stock split at a ratio of up to 1-for-20, as well as an additional reverse stock split at a ratio of up to 1-for-20, and our Board of Directors is currently evaluating whether and when to implement any such reverse stock split.
On October 23, 2024, the stockholders of the Company approved and adopted
an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, to increase the number of authorized shares of
the Company’s Common Stock to
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) consistent with those applied in, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s audited financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2025, its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, in accordance with US GAAP. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements, as allowed by the relevant U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that its disclosures are adequate to ensure that the information presented is not misleading. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, or any other interim period within this fiscal year.

Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $
These accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

2 . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, there were no changes to the significant accounting policies as described in the 2024 Audited Financial Statements. Certain 2024 financial statement balances have been reclassified to correspond with current year presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company believes judgment is involved in accounting for the fair value-based measurement of stock-based compensation, accruals, and warrants. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, and those differences could be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, ASC, 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, or ASC 480, and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, or ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. Finally, the Company determines if the warrants meet the definition of a derivative based on their contractual terms. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and at each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of liability-classified warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company also evaluates if changes in contractual terms or other considerations would result in the reclassification of outstanding warrants from liabilities to stockholders’ equity (or vice versa).
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock and if-converted methods. Dilutive common stock equivalents are comprised of convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, options outstanding under the Company’s stock option plan and warrants. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding as inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive.
Potentially dilutive securities not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be antidilutive are as follows (in common stock equivalent shares):

3. LICENSE AND SUPPLY AGREEMENT WITH TORAY INDUSTRIES
The Company depends on Toray’s intellectual
property for the Symphony cartridges upon which the Symphony platform relies. On October 6, 2020, the Company entered into a License and
Supply Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Toray, providing the Company with an exclusive global license with Toray,
excluding Japan, to use Toray’s patents and know-how related to the Symphony detection cartridges for the manufacturing, marketing
and sale of the products (as defined in the License Agreement). In exchange for the license, the Company committed to make two payments
of $
On October 23, 2023, the Company and Toray entered
into an Amended and Restated License Agreement (the “New Toray License Agreement”) and a Master Supply Agreement (the “New
Toray Supply Agreement”). Under the New Toray License Agreement, the Company continues to license from Toray intellectual property
rights needed to manufacture single-use test cartridges, and the Company has received the right to sublicense certain Toray intellectual
property to Sanyoseiko in connection with Sanyoseiko’s ongoing agreement with the Company to manufacture the Company’s Symphony
analyzers and cartridges (including in connection with the Company’s clinical trials). In addition, the New Toray License Agreement
provides for the transfer of certain technology related to the cartridges to Sanyoseiko. The royalty payment percentage payable by the
Company to Toray was reduced under the New Toray License Agreement from
On July 23, 2025, the Company entered into an
amendment (the “Amendment”) to the New Toray License Agreement and the New Toray Supply Agreement with Toray. The Amendment
provides that the deadline under the New Toray License Agreement for the Company to establish an alternative manufacturing site for the
Company’s Symphony cartridges will be extended from October 23, 2025 to October 23, 2026, and the Company has agreed to use its
best efforts to establish the site by such date. The Amendment confirms that Toray has provided to the Company all applicable know-how
required under the New Toray License Agreement and is not under any further obligation to provide know-how or technical assistance to
the Company. The Amendment also provides that the Company shall pay $
The Company is planning to begin cartridge redevelopment through a third-party contractor who would manage such redevelopment, although a third-party contractor has not yet been contracted to perform the work. Such redevelopment is intended to address several technical challenges to bring Symphony to a level consistent with necessary performance and quality requirements. After the cartridge redevelopment is completed, the Company plans to have the manufacturing process occur at an FDA-registered CMO, including for validation testing and commercial manufacturing. Under the Amendment, the Company will use best efforts to have substantially completed the establishment of such cartridge redevelopment manufacturing site by October 2026. The manufacturing sites, if any, will be established by Bluejay without Toray’s technical assistance. If Toray were to assert that the Company has not done so, they could seek to terminate the license agreement as early as November 2026. If Toray were to be successful in terminating the license agreement, the Company would lose access to certain technology required to produce the cartridges that the Symphony system relies on to function, which would likely result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s commercialization efforts. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, there were no amounts accrued related to the New Toray License Agreement or the License Agreement.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in our forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Overview
Bluejay Diagnostics, Inc. (“Bluejay,” the “Company,” “we” and/or “us”)) is a medical diagnostics company focused on improving patient outcomes in critical care settings. The Company is working on developing rapid tests using whole blood on its Symphony technology platform (“Symphony”), which consists of an analyzer and single-use protein detection cartridges that have a function of automatic stepwise feeding of reagent. The Company does not yet have regulatory clearance for Symphony, and it will need to receive regulatory authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) to be marketed as a diagnostic product in the United States. The Company has completed the development of the Symphony analyzer. The Company is planning to begin cartridge redevelopment through a third-party contractor who would manage such redevelopment. Such redevelopment is intended to address several technical challenges to bring Symphony to a level consistent with necessary performance and quality requirements. After redevelopment, the Company plans to have manufacturing of the Symphony cartridges occur at a Contract Manufacturing Organization (“CMO”). To achieve its plan, the Company expects to need to raise at least $30 million of capital between the third quarter of 2025 and the end of the 2027 fiscal year, which the Company hopes to do in various tranches during this time period. The Company’s current plan, subject to achieving necessary financing, is to begin testing of samples it is collecting as part of its ongoing SYMON-II clinical trial by the end of 2026, with a goal of being in position to submit a 510(k) regulatory application to the FDA in 2027, with an objective of achieving FDA approval thereafter.
The Company’s Symphony platform is a combination of Bluejay’s intellectual property (“IP”) and exclusively licensed and patented IP on the Symphony technology that the Company believes, if cleared, authorized, or approved by the FDA, can provide a solution to a significant market need in the United States. The Symphony device is designed to produce laboratory-quality results in 20 minutes in critical care settings, including Intensive Care Units (“ICUs”) and Emergency Rooms (“ERs”), where rapid and reliable results are required.
The Company’s first product candidate, the Symphony IL-6 test, is an immunoassay for the measurement of interleukin-6 (IL-6) to be used for the monitoring of disease progression in critical care settings. The Company is currently focused on pursuing the Symphony IL-6 test in the context of sepsis. IL-6 is a clinically established inflammatory biomarker, and is considered a ‘first-responder,’ for assessment of severity of infection and inflammation across many disease indications, including sepsis. A current challenge of healthcare professionals is the excessive time and cost associated determining a patient’s level of severity at triage and the Company believes that its Symphony IL-6 test, if ultimately successful and approved, could have the ability to consistently monitor this critical care biomarker with rapid results.
If the Company succeeds with the foregoing plan, in the future it hopes to develop additional tests for Symphony, including tests for myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure (cardiac biomarkers hsTNT and NT pro-BNP) as well as other tests using the Symphony platform.
Since inception, we have incurred net losses from operations each year and we expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We incurred net losses of approximately $2.0 million and $3.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. We had negative cash flow from operating activities of approximately $3.2 million and $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $38.5 million as of June 30, 2025.
20
As further described below under “Liquidity and Going Concern Uncertainty” as of June 30, 2025, the Company possessed cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.4 million, while having current liabilities of approximately $1.0 million. The Company will need to raise a material amount of additional capital in the imminent near-term to continue as a going concern, and that absent such near-term funding, it will likely run out of available cash resources in the near-term. If we are unable to obtain financing in the near-term, or otherwise consummate strategic alternatives, we could determine to undertake a process of liquidation under U.S. bankruptcy laws.

Research and Development
Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were approximately $0.9 million as compared to approximately $1.0 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to a reduction in technology transfer efforts which offset increased clinical trial expenses. We expect future research and development expenses to be focused on costs specifically associated with our clinical trial program supporting our regulatory strategy, technology transfer efforts and any necessary manufacturing improvements.
21
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025, were approximately $1.1 million as compared to approximately $0.9 million for the comparable period in 2024. The increase in general and administrative expenses is due to continued efforts to raise capital and ongoing public company reporting requirements. We expect to monitor and continue to pare our general and administrative spend, as necessary, to optimize operational alignment.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were zero, compared to approximately $305 for the comparable period in 2024. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses was due to a cessation in spending for all sales and marketing efforts.
Other Income (Expense), net
Total other income (expense), net for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was approximately $29,000 of income as compared to $580,000 of expense for the same periods in 2024. The increase in other income (expense), net was primarily due to higher interest expense ($626,000) associated with our notes payable under the Bridge Note Financing.

Net cash used in operating activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we used approximately $3.2 million in cash for operating activities, a decrease of approximately $1.0 million as compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease is primarily driven by a lower net loss when comparing the two periods.
22
Net cash used in investing activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we used no cash for investing activities, a decrease of approximately $305,000 as compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was due to no purchasing of manufacturing equipment.
Net cash used in financing activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we raised approximately $3.4 million in cash through financing activities, a decrease of approximately $7.0 million as compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease in net cash generated by financing activities was due our private placement on April 8, 2025 as compared to our public offering on January 2, 2024, a Bridge Note Financing in June 2024 and our public offering on June 28, 2024.
Liquidity and Going Concern Uncertainty
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,443,076 and current liabilities of $1,041,063 on its balance sheet as of June 30, 2025. The Company has incurred net losses since its inception, and has negative cash flows from operations and had an accumulated deficit of $38,489,823 as of June 30, 2025. The Company expects that its net cash used in operating activities will continue to be negative over at least the next several years as it redevelops aspects of the Symphony cartridges and conducts clinical trial work and, if such redevelopment and trials are successful, begin preparation of an FDA submission. These financial results and financial position, and the Company’s expected forward-looking outwork of significant negative cash flow in the future, raise substantial doubt with respect to its ability to continue as a going concern. As a result of the Company’s lack of cash, it has slowed the timeline of its clinical trial work to preserve cash resources in the near-term, and the Company expects that this will delay its Symphony platform regulatory submission timeline until 2027, at the earliest, if it is even able to generate sufficient clinical trial results to support such a submission. If the Company fails to obtain additional material financing in the near-term, its clinical trials and targeted FDA submission timeline could be delayed further, and it could be forced to abandon such activities entirely and cease operations, with the possible loss of such properties or assets. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as it continues to generate negative cash flow, its board of directors could determine to cause the Company to undertake a process of liquidation under Chapter 7 of applicable U.S. bankruptcy laws, or otherwise seek other protection under such laws. In such event, the Company expects that holders of shares of its common stock would recoup little if any material value in such process. The Company currently estimates that the cash resources it possesses as of the date of this filing will be sufficient to fund its operations up to the fourth quarter of 2025.
The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business.

On January 2, 2024, the Company sold in a public offering (such transaction, the “January 2024 Offering”) (i) 1,344 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share and (ii) prefunded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate 5,386 shares of Common Stock (the “January Prefunded Warrants”). The Shares and January Prefunded Warrants were sold together with warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,730 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $520.00 per share (the “January 2024 Warrants”). The combined public offering price was $520.00 per share of Common Stock and related January 2024 Warrant and $519.96 per January Prefunded Warrant and related January 2024 Warrant.
As of December 31, 2024, all January Prefunded Warrants had been exercised in full. The January 2024 Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years following the date of issuance.
Pursuant to an engagement letter, dated as of August 7, 2023, as amended October 11, 2023, by and between the Company and the Placement Agent, the Company paid the Placement Agent a total cash fee of $245,000 equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds received in the January 2024 Offering. The Company also paid the Placement Agent in connection with the January Offering a management fee of $35,000 equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the January 2024 Offering and certain expenses incurred in connection with the January Offering. In addition, the Company issued to the Placement Agent, warrants to purchase up to an aggregate 471 shares of Common Stock (the “January 2024 Placement Agent Warrants”), which represents 7.0% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and Prefunded Warrants sold in the January 2024 Offering. The January 2024 Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the January 2024 Warrants, except that the January 2024 Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price equal to $650.00, or 125% of the offering price per share of Common Stock and related January 2024 Warrant sold in the January Offering and expire on the fifth anniversary from the date of the commencement of sales in the January 2024 Offering.
The gross proceeds to the Company from the January 2024 Offering were $3,500,000. The Company incurred offering costs of $711,031.
May 2024 Bridge Note Financing
On May 31, 2024, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor (the “NPA”), and a Securities Purchase Agreement with three accredited investors (the “SPA”).

Under the terms of the SPA, the three investors agreed to collectively provide the Company with a separate $1,000,000 cash subscription in exchange for the issuance of senior secured notes ($333,333 each), and the collective issuance of 1,451 shares of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of the common stock issued in connection with the SPA was $307,563. As of December 31, 2024, a total of $1,111,110 was repaid to the SPA investors. The difference between such notes and the subscription amounts, initially recorded as a discount on the notes, was the result of the discount factor included in the SPA of 11.11%.

June 2024 Offering
On June 28, 2024, the Company sold in a public offering ( the “June 2024 Offering”), (i) 11,541 common units (the “Common Units”), each consisting of one share of common stock, two Class C Warrants and one Class D Warrant and (ii) 95,815 prefunded warrants (the “Prefunded Units”), each consisting of one prefunded warrant to purchase one share of common stock (each, a “Prefunded Warrant”), two Class C Warrants and one Class D Warrant to purchase Common Shares. Aegis Capital Corp. (“Aegis” or, the “Underwriter”) partially exercised its over-allotment option in respect to 13,573 Class C Warrants and 6,787 Class D Warrants (the “Over-Allotment Warrants”).

As of December 31, 2024, all Prefunded Warrants had been exercised in full.
Pursuant to an engagement letter dated June 6, 2024, by and between the Company and Aegis, the Company paid Aegis a total cash fee of $743,750 equal to 8.5% of the gross proceeds received in the June 2024 Offering.
The gross proceeds to the Company from the June 2024 Offering were $8,569,075. The Company incurred offering costs of $1,133,419.
April 2025 Private Placement
On April 7, 2025, the Company entered into inducement letter agreements (the “Inducement Letter Agreements”) with certain existing holders (the “Holders”) of the Company’s Class C Warrants, pursuant to which the Holders agreed to purchase an aggregate of 1,085,106 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Class C Warrants were originally issued to the Holders on June 28, 2024 for an exercise price of $98.00 per share and were subsequently reduced to $16.30 per share pursuant to stockholder approval on August 21, 2024. Pursuant to the Inducement Letter Agreements, the Holders agreed to exercise their Series C warrants at a reduced exercise price of $3.42 per share, and to purchase an equivalent number of new Class E Warrants for an additional $0.125 per share. The Class E Warrants have an exercise price of $3.42 per share and expire on April 8, 2030.
The transaction closed on April 8, 2025. The exercise of the Class C Warrants resulted in the Company issuing 682,203 shares of Common Stock at closing and pre-funding of 402,903 shares of Common Stock.
The gross proceeds to the Company from the exercise of the Class C Warrants and the sale of the new Class E Warrants were $3,846,692 million. The Company incurred total offering costs of $464,670, including a 10% financial advisory fee to Aegis Capital Corp. of $384,670.
The modification of the terms or conditions of the warrants in this transaction is treated as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. Using the Black Scholes option pricing model, the fair value of the Series C warrants immediately prior to the inducement transaction was $479,299 and immediately after the inducement transaction was $1,590,930. In addition, Series E warrants with a fair value of $1,730,652 were provided as part of the inducement transaction for a purchase price of $135,638. The Company recorded additional equity issuance costs of $2,706,645 related to the modification of the Series C warrants and issuance of Series E warrants related to the inducement transaction. As this equity issuance cost was a non-cash transaction, the Company recorded an increase to additional paid-in capital to offset the expense.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements (under the caption “Recently Adopted Accounting Standards”).
Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status
We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. We are using the extended transition period for any other new or revised accounting standards during the period in which we remain an emerging growth company.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of our first fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of IPO (November 2021), (b) in which we have total annual gross revenues of at least $1.07 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30 th and (ii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.
We are also a “smaller reporting company,” meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million. If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and, similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.
JOBS Act Accounting Election
The JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies.
We have implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and may impact our financial statements and we do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as Amended (the “Exchange Act”) and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer (who serves as our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer), regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2025. We continue to review our disclosure controls and procedures and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and ensuring that our systems evolve with our Company’s business. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
Remediation of Previously Reported Material Weakness
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, management identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting related to a lack of sufficient internal accounting expertise at the Company regarding the accounting for complex equity transactions. Specifically, in June 2024, the Company issued Class C and Class D warrants that contained “reset” features that caused the exercise prices to decrease and number of shares of Company common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants to increase following stockholder approval of such reset in August 2024. Under applicable accounting guidance, upon reset, the Company should have recorded in its consolidated statement of operations a “deemed dividend on warrant modification” and “net loss applicable to common stockholders”.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, management completed the implementation of its remediation plan, which included designing and implementing new controls over equity transaction review and approval, including the accounting for complex financial instruments upon their issuance, which included the engaging of external consultants to assist in technical accounting matters.
Management tested the newly implemented controls and concluded that they were operating effectively as of June 30, 2025. As a result, management has concluded that the previously identified material weakness has been remediated.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than the remediation activities described above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time in the ordinary course of our business, we may be involved in legal proceedings, the outcomes of which may not be determinable. The results of litigation are inherently unpredictable. Any claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, require significant amounts of management time and result in diversion of significant resources. We are not able to estimate an aggregate amount or range of reasonably possible losses for those legal matters for which losses are not probable and estimable. We have insurance policies covering potential losses where such coverage is cost effective.
We are not at this time involved in any material legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
For a discussion of potential risks or uncertainties, see “Risk Factors” in the Company’s 2024 annual report on Form 10-K on file with the SEC. The following disclosures supplement such Risk Factors, and should be read in conjunction therewith:
Additional Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Capital Requirements
To remain a going concern, we are in need of imminent material additional capital and absent our ability to raise such material capital in the near-term, we may be required to undertake a process of liquidation under U.S. bankruptcy laws, which we expect would limit holders of our common stock from recouping any material value for their shares.
As of June 30, 2025, we possessed cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.4 million, while having current liabilities of approximately $1.0 million. We incurred losses of approximately $7.7 million and $10.0 million for fiscal years 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. From our inception through June 30, 2025, we have an accumulated deficit of approximately $38.5 million, and we do not currently generate any operating income. To achieve our current strategic plan, which strives to be in position to submit a 510(k) regulatory application to the FDA in 2027 and achieve FDA approval thereafter, we expect to need to raise at least $30 million of capital between the second quarter of 2025 and the end of the 2027 fiscal year, which we hope to do in various tranches during this time period. We are exploring potential pathways to raise additional material capital, but there can be no assurance that such additional capital will be available on a timely basis or on terms that will be acceptable to us. If we are ultimately unable to obtain the needed financing to implement our business plans, our board of directors could determine to cause the Company to undertake a process of liquidation under Chapter 7 of applicable U.S. bankruptcy laws. In such event, we do not currently expect that holders of shares of our common stock would recoup any material value in such process.
28
Additional Risks Related to Our Business
To preserve cash resources, we have downsized our organization, which may reduce business continuity, affect our ability to apply for certain patents, and affect our product development and timelines, including our previously disclosed plan to transfer underlying production of our cartridges to a third-party contractor who would manage such redevelopment.
To preserve cash resources, we have implemented a series of recent cost savings measures in our product development operations. As of the date of this filing, we have reduced our overall Company-wide full-time employee headcount to 5 persons, including recently separating with our Chief Technical Officer, who was also significantly involved in our ongoing SYMON-II clinical studies, analytical studies, and certain intellectual property in connection with the prior development work of Symphony performed by Company, and our VP of Operations, who was overseeing the process of redeveloping aspects of our Symphony cartridges. We are exploring pathways for redevelopment by outsourcing this work to third parties. In addition, these measures are expected to result in a loss of institutional knowledge that may make our product redevelopment work more difficult to successfully achieve. To the extent we obtain sufficient funding, we may hire replacement personnel in these areas in the future, but there is no assurance that we will be able to do so. These circumstances may make it more difficult to succeed in meeting the technical challenges necessary to bring our Symphony product to a level consistent with necessary performance and quality requirements to support an FDA submission and ultimately be able to commercialize our product, as well as the timeline for completing this work.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
April 2025 Private Placement
On April 8, 2025, pursuant to the April 7, 2025 Inducement Letter Agreements with certain existing holders of the Company’s Class C Warrants, the Company sold 1,085,106 Class E Warrants to purchase unregistered shares of Common Stock for an immediate payment of $0.125 per Class E Warrant. Each Class E Warrant has an exercise price of $3.42 per share and expires on April 8, 2030. The sales proceeds were used for general corporate purposes.
Pursuant to the Inducement Letter Agreements, the Company agreed to file a registration statement providing for the resale by the purchasers of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Class E Warrants. On April 29, 2025, the Company filed Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the sale of common stock issuable to the selling stockholders upon exercise of the Class E Warrants.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
Insider Trading Arrangements and Policies
During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025, none of our directors
