The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel immunooncology products based off our proprietary Trispecific Killer Engager (TriKE), Tetraspecific Killer Engager (TetraKE) and bispecific Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) technology platforms. Constructs include bispecific and trispecific scFv constructs, proprietary drug payloads, bispecific targeted antibodydrug conjugates, as well as tri and tetraspecific antibodydirected cellular cytotoxicity, or ADCC. Our proprietary tri and tetraspecific ADCC platform engages natural killer cells, or NK cells. NK cells are cytotoxic lymphocytes of the innate immune system capable of immune surveillance. NK cells mediate ADCC through the highly potent CD16 activating receptor. Upon activation, NK cells deliver a store of membrane penetrating apoptosis inducing molecules. Unlike T cells, NK cells do not require antigen priming.

Also, we have a CNS portfolio consisting of innovative reformulations and/or repurposing of existing therapies. We believe these new therapeutic agents address numerous unmet medical needs that can lead to improved efficacy while addressing tolerability and safety issues that tended to limit the usefulness of the original approved drug. These CNS drug candidates address disease states such as chronic neuropathic pain, myasthenia gravis and motion sickness.

In 1965, the corporate predecessor of GT Biopharma, Diagnostic Data, Inc. was incorporated in the State of California. Diagnostic Data changed its incorporation to the State of Delaware in 1972. and changed its name to DDI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in 1985. In 1994, DDI Pharmaceuticals merged with International BioClinical, Inc. and Bioxytech S.A. and changed its name to OXIS International, Inc. In July 2017, the Company changed its name to GT Biopharma, Inc.

Going Concern

The Company’s current operations have focused on business planning, raising capital, establishing an intellectual property portfolio, hiring, and conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials. The Company does not have any product candidates approved for sale and has not generated any revenue from product sales. The Company has sustained operating losses since inception and expects such losses to continue over the foreseeable future.

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a goingconcern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

The Company has incurred substantial losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $289 million and cash of $1.1 million as of June 30, 2018. The Company anticipates incurring additional losses until such time, if ever, that it can generate significant sales of its products currently in development. Substantial additional financing will be needed by the Company to fund its operations and to commercially develop its product candidates. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management is currently evaluating different strategies to obtain the required funding for future operations. These strategies may include but are not limited to: public offerings of equity and/or debt securities, payments from potential strategic research and development, and licensing and/or marketing arrangements with pharmaceutical companies. Management is also implementing cost saving efforts, including reduction in executive salaries. Management believes that these ongoing and planned financing endeavors, if successful, will provide adequate financial resources to continue as a going concern for at least the next six months from the date the financial statements are issued. however, there can be no assurance in this regard. If the Company is unable to secure adequate additional funding in 2018, its business, operating results, financial condition and cash flows may be materially and adversely affected.

Use of Estimates

The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities revenues and expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basis of Consolidation and Comprehensive Income

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GT Biopharma, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted herein. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information presented herein reflects all normal adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The Company is responsible for the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included in this report. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company's cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable are monitored for exposure to concentrations of credit risk. The Company maintains substantially all of its cash balances in a limited number of financial institutions. The balances are each insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company had $845,000 of balances in excess of this limit at June 30, 2018.

Stock Based Compensation to Employees

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation for employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718. The Company recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees over the related vesting period.

The Company granted no stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

The Company's long-lived assets currently consist of capitalized patents and other indefinite lived intangible assets. The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If any of the Company's long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the amount of impairment to be recognized is equal to the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over the fair value of the assets. There was no impairment of any of the indefinite lived intangibles during the six months ended June 30, 2018

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach, whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax effects, based on current enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between financial and tax reporting for current and prior periods. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance if the corresponding future tax benefits may not be realized.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the potential dilutive effect of common shares issuable upon exercise or conversion of outstanding stock options and warrants during the period. The weighted average number of potentially dilutive common shares excluded from the calculation of net income (loss) per share totaled in 1,695,686 and 1,030,951 as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Patents

Acquired patents are capitalized at their acquisition cost or fair value. The legal costs, patent registration fees and models and drawings required for filing patent applications are capitalized if they relate to commercially viable technologies. Commercially viable technologies are those technologies that are projected to generate future positive cash flows in the near term. Legal costs associated with patent applications that are not determined to be commercially viable are expensed as incurred. All research and development costs incurred in developing the patentable idea are expensed as incurred. Legal fees from the costs incurred in successful defense to the extent of an evident increase in the value of the patents are capitalized.

Capitalized cost for pending patents are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining twenty year legal life of each patent after the costs have been incurred. Once each patent is issued, capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the patent's remaining statutory life, estimated economic life or ten years.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 3 to 10 years for machinery and equipment and the shorter of the lease term or estimated economic life for leasehold improvements.

Fair Value

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels are defined as follows:

●

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. The Company’s Level 1 assets include cash equivalents, primarily institutional money market funds, whose carrying value represents fair value because of their short-term maturities of the investments held by these funds.

●

Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. The Company’s Level 2 liabilities consist of liabilities arising from the issuance of convertible securities and in accordance with ASC 815-40: a warrant liability for detachable warrants, as well as an accrued derivative liability for the beneficial conversion feature. These liabilities are remeasured each reporting period. Fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model based on observable market inputs, such as share price data and a discount rate consistent with that of a government-issued security of a similar maturity. There were not such liabilities at June 30, 2018.

●

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and reported as research and development expense. Research and development costs totaling $6,724,000 and $385,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

License Revenue

License arrangements may consist of non-refundable upfront license fees, exclusive licensed rights to patented or patent pending technology, and various performance or sales milestones and future product royalty payments. Some of these arrangements are multiple element arrangements.

Non-refundable, up-front fees that are not contingent on any future performance by us, and require no consequential continuing involvement on our part, are recognized as revenue when the license term commences and the licensed data, technology and/or compound is delivered. We defer recognition of non-refundable upfront fees if we have continuing performance obligations without which the technology, right, product or service conveyed in conjunction with the non-refundable fee has no utility to the licensee that is separate and independent of our performance under the other elements of the arrangement. In addition, if we have continuing involvement through research and development services that are required because our know-how and expertise related to the technology is proprietary to us, or can only be performed by us, then such up-front fees are deferred and recognized over the period of continuing involvement.

Payments related to substantive, performance-based milestones in a research and development arrangement are recognized as revenue upon the achievement of the milestones as specified in the underlying agreements when they represent the culmination of the earnings process. As of June 30, 2018, the Company has not generated any licensing revenue.

Intangibles

On September 1, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger whereby it acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Georgetown Translational Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (GTP). In exchange for the ownership of GTP, the Company issued a total of 16,927,878 shares of its common stock, having a share price of $15.00 on the date of the transaction , to the three prior owners of GTP which represents 33% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis. $253,777,000 of the value of shares issued were allocated to intangible assets .

As stated in Note 1, Company's long-lived assets currently consist of capitalized patents and other indefinite lived intangible assets. The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If any of the Company's long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the amount of impairment to be recognized is equal to the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over the fair value of the assets. There was no impairment of any of the indefinite lived intangibles during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Debt

Convertible Notes

On January 22, 2018, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with the fourteen accredited investors (individually, a “Buyer” and collectively, the “Buyers”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to issue to the Buyers senior convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $7,760,510 (the “Notes”), which Notes shall be convertible into the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and five-year warrants to purchase the Company’s Common Stock representing the right to acquire an aggregate of approximately 1,694,440 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”).

Pursuant to the terms of SPA the Notes are subject to an original issue discount of 10% resulting in proceeds to the Company of $7,055,000 from the transaction. The Notes are due on July 22, 2018. The Notes are convertible, at the option of the Buyers, at any time prior to payment in full, into shares of common stock of the Company at a price of $4.58 per share (“Conversion Price”). According to the terms of the note agreement, the Notes are subject to certain adjustments depending upon the price and structure of a subsequent financing, including a qualified financing with gross proceeds of at least $20 million , as defined in the agreements.

Upon the purchase of the Notes, the Buyers received Warrants to purchase 1,694,440 shares of Common Stock . Such Warrants are exercisable for (5) years from the date the shares underlying the Warrants are freely saleable. The initial Exercise Price is $4.58. According to the terms of the warrant agreement, the Warrants are subject to certain adjustments depending upon the price and structure of a subsequent financing, including a qualified financing with gross proceeds of at least $20 million , as defined in the agreements.

The issuance of the Notes and Warrants were made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) for the offer and sale of securities not involving a public offering, and Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the SPA, the Company and the Buyers executed and delivered a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights with respect to the Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and applicable state securities laws.

Financing Agreement

On November 8, 2010, the Company entered into a financing arrangement with Gemini Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a product development and manufacturing partner of the Company, pursuant to which Gemini Pharmaceuticals made a $250,000 strategic equity investment in the Company and agreed to make a $750,000 purchase order line of credit facility available to the Company. The outstanding principal of all Advances under the Line of Credit will bear interest at the rate of interest of prime plus 2 percent per annum. There is $31,000 due on this credit line at June 30, 2018.

Change of Accounting Method

Adoption of ASU 2017-11

In connection with the securities purchase agreements and debt transactions during and previous the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued warrants, to purchase common stock with a five-year term. Upon issuance of the warrants, the Company evaluated the note agreement to determine if the agreement contained any embedded components that would qualify the agreement as a derivative. The Company identified certain put features embedded in the warrants that potentially could result in a net cash settlement in the event of a fundamental transaction, requiring the Company to classify the warrants as a derivative liability. The Company changed its method of accounting for the debt and warrants through the early adoption of ASU 2017-11 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 on a retrospective basis. Accordingly, the Company recorded the warrant derivative and conversion option derivative liabilities to additional paid in capital upon issuance.

The following table provides a summary of the derivative liability activity as a result of the adoption of ASU 2017-11:

Overview

We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company predominantly focused on the development and commercialization of immuno-oncology products based off our proprietary Tri-specific Killer Engager (TriKE), Tetra-specific Killer Engager (TetraKE) and bi-specific Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) technology platforms. Our TriKE and TetraKE platforms generate proprietary moieties designed to harness and enhance the cancer killing abilities of a patient’s own natural killer, or NK, cells. Once bound to a NK cell, our moieties are designed to enhance the NK cell and precisely direct it to one or more specifically-targeted proteins (tumor antigens) expressed on a specific type of cancer, ultimately resulting in the cancer cell’s death. TriKEs and TetraKEs are made up of recombinant fusion proteins, can be designed to target certain tumor antigens on hematologic malignancies, sarcomas or solid tumors and do not require patient-specific customization. They are designed to be dosed in a common outpatient setting similar to modern antibody therapeutics and are expected to have reasonably low cost of goods. Our ADC platform can generate product candidates that are bi-specific, ligand-directed single-chain fusion proteins that, we believe, represent the next generation of ADCs.

Our most advanced bi-specific ADC, which targets CD19+ and/or CD22+ hematological malignancies, is in the Phase 2 component of a Phase 1/2 Non-Hodgins Lymphoma (NHL)/Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) trial which is an open-label, investigator-led study. We expect to be in a position to begin a First-in-Class, Phase 1 trial in CD33+ hematologic malignancies for our most advanced TriKE product candidate in the second half of 2018. We are initially targeting certain hematologic malignancies as we believe our product candidates may have certain advantages over existing and other in-development products. We are also focused on developing TetraKE product candidates designed to target the larger solid tumor population and are working towards beginning clinical trials in 2019.

Our TriKE product candidates are single-chain, tri-specific scFv recombinant fusion proteins composed of the variable regions of the heavy and light chains (or heavy chain only) of anti-CD16 antibodies, wild-type or a modified form of IL-15 and the variable regions of the heavy and light chains of an antibody designed to precisely target a specific tumor antigen. We utilize the NK stimulating cytokine human IL-15 as a crosslinker between the two scFvs which is designed to provide a self-sustaining signal leading to the proliferation and activation of NK cells thus enhancing their ability to kill cancer cells mediated by antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). Our second TriKE product candidate, OXS-C3550, is a next-generation version of OXS-3550 containing a modified CD16 component.

Our TetraKE product candidates are single-chain fusion proteins composed of human single-domain anti-CD16 antibody, wild-type IL-15 and the variable regions of the heavy and light chains of two antibodies that are designed to target two specific tumor antigens expressed on specific types of cancer cells. An example of a TetraKE product candidate is OXS-1615 which is designed to target EpCAM and CD133 positive solid tumors. EpCAM is found on many solid tumor cells of epithelial origin and CD133 is a marker for cancer stem cells. OXS-1615 is designed to enable a patient’s NK cells to kill not only the heterogeneous population of cancer cells found in many solid tumors but also kill the cancer stem cells that can be responsible for recurrences.

Our TriKEs and TetraKEs are designed to act by binding to a patient’s NK cells and a specific tumor antigen enabling an immune synapse between the now IL-15-enhanced NK cell and the targeted cancer cell. The formation of an immune synapse can induce NK cell activation which can lead to the death of the cancer cell. We believe the self-sustaining signal caused by our IL-15 cross-linker may enable prolonged and enhanced proliferation and activation of NK cells similar to the increased proliferation of T-cells caused by 41BB-L or CD28 intracellular domains in CAR-T therapy but without the need to enhance the patient’s NK cells ex vivo.

We are using our TriKE and TetraKE platforms with the intent to bring to market immuno-oncology products that can treat a range of hematologic malignancies, sarcoma and solid tumors. The platforms are scalable and we are putting processes in place to be able to produce IND-ready moieties in a timely manner after a specific TriKE or TetraKE conceptual design. After conducting market and competitive research, specific moieties can then be advanced into the clinic on our own or through potential collaborations with larger companies. We are also evaluating, in conjunction with our Scientific Advisory Board, additional moieties designed to target different tumor antigens. We believe our TriKEs and TetraKEs may have the ability, if approved for marketing, to be used on a stand-alone basis, augment the current monoclonal antibody therapeutics, be used in conjunction with more traditional cancer therapy and potentially overcome certain limitations of current chimeric antigen receptor, or CAR-T, therapy.

OXS-3550 is our first TriKE product candidate. The OXS-3550 IND will focus on AML, the most common form of adult leukemia with 21,000 new cases expected in 2018 alone (American Cancer Society). These patients typically receive frontline therapy, usually chemotherapy, including cytarabine and an anthracycline, a therapy that has not changed in over 40 years. About half will have relapses and require alternative therapies. In addition, MDS incidence rates have dramatically increased in the population of the United States from 3.3 per 100,000 individuals from 2001-2004 to 70 per 100,000 annually, MDS is especially prevalent in elderly patients that have a median age of 76 years at diagnosis. The survival of patients with MDS is poor due to decreased eligibility, as a result of advanced age, for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT), the only curative MDS treatment (Cogle CR. Incidence and Burden of the Myelodysplastic Syndromes. Curr Hematol Malig Rep . 2015; 10(3):272-281). We believe that OXS-3550 could serve as a relatively safe, cost-effective, and easy-to-use therapy for resistant/relapsing AML and MDS and could also be combined with chemotherapy as frontline therapy thus targeting the larger patient population.

The IND for OXS-3550 was filed in June 2017 by the University of Minnesota. FDA requested that additional preclinical toxicology be conducted prior to initiating clinical trials. The FDA also requested some additional information and clarifications on the manufacturing (CMC) and clinical packages. The requested additional information and clarifications have been completed and are being incorporated by us into the IND in eCTD format. We filed the IND amendment in June 2018 and expect to be in a position to begin a Phase 1 clinical trial in the second half of 2018.

We also believe our bi-specific, ligand-directed single-chain fusion proteins are examples of the next generation of ADCs. We believe OXS-1550 has certain properties that could result in competitive advantages over recently approved ADC products targeting leukemias and lymphomas and/or have utility other niche populations. In a Phase 1 trial, of nine patients that achieved adequate blood levels, in two heavily pretreated patients a continuous partial remission (PR) and complete remission (CR) were observed. One patient, who had failed multiple previous treatment regimens, has been in remission since early 2015.

OXS-1550 is being evaluated in a Phase 2 component of an investigator-led Phase 1/2 clinical trial in relapsed/refractory NHL/ALL patients. We recently assembled a Bi-Specific ADC Advisory Board to work with us to assess and interpret the OXS-1550 pre-clinical and clinical data, including an interim review of the Phase 1/2 study. Eighteen patients have been enrolled to date, including 12 NHL and six ALL patients. At the time of the interim review, 13 patients met the evaluation criteria, including nine NHL and four ALL patients. More than 50% of patients (seven of 13) exhibited a clinical benefit, defined as stable disease, partial remission or complete remission at Day 29. Of the seven patients, one demonstrated a complete remission (CR), one demonstrated a partial remission (PR) and five demonstrated stable disease (SD).

The efficacy signal was more prominent in ALL patients with 75% (three of four) exhibiting clinical benefit including one CR, one PR and one SD. In the NHL population, four of nine patients exhibited SD. Adverse events were mostly grade 1 and 2 and reversible. One patient had a grade 4 low platelet count, two patients had a grade 3 increase in liver function tests, or LFTs, and one patient had a grade 3 capillary leak.

The Company currently expects final data for this trial to be available in the fourth quarter of 2018 or the first quarter of 2019.

Our initial and ongoing work is being conducted in collaboration with the Masonic Cancer Center at the University of Minnesota under research agreements led by Dr. Jeffrey Miller, the Deputy Director and Dr. Daniel Vallera, Director, Section of Molecular Cancer Therapeutics. Through these research agreements we have access to a range of capabilities and resources such as construct design and functional testing, early single-chain fusion protein GMP production, scientific and clinical expertise and experience including early phase human testing. Dr. Miller is a recognized leader in the field of NK cell and IL-15 biology and their therapeutic potential. We have exclusive rights to the TriKE and TetraKE platforms and are generating additional intellectual property around specific moieties.

We also have a CNS portfolio of three product candidates consisting of what we believe are innovative reformulations and/or repurposing of existing therapies. We believe these therapeutic agents may address certain unmet medical needs that can lead to improved efficacy while addressing tolerability and safety issues that may have limited the usefulness of the original approved drug. Our CNS drug candidates may address disease states such as chronic neuropathic pain, myasthenia gravis and motion sickness.

In January 2018, we completed a study in healthy volunteers for GTP-004, our product candidate for the treatment for the symptoms of myasthenia gravis. We also announced the initiation of an investigator led study in healthy volunteers for GTP-011, for the prevention of motion sickness, with data expected in the second half of 2018. We expect to take advantage of our CNS portfolio by generating what we believe to be proof-of-concept data and/or achieving other milestones, making what we believe are cost effective go/no-go decisions, and pursuing strategic transactions with commercialization-oriented pharmaceutical companies.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Research and Development Expenses

During the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we incurred $3,251,000 and $241,000 of research and development expenses. Research and development costs increased due primarily to the addition of new employees, consultant costs and preclinical and clinical expenses and include $2.9 million of the expenses related to non-cash compensation. We anticipate our direct clinical costs to increase in second half of 2018 upon the initiation of a Phase 1 clinical trial of our most advanced TriKe product candidate, OXS-3550.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

During the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we incurred $1,906,000 and $1,044,000 of selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to an increase $.4 million of professional fees and $0.5 million of loan costs.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $3,924,000 and $1,178,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 respectively. The increase is primarily due to amortization of the original issue discount and the value of warrants issued with the January 2018 financing.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Research and Development Expenses

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we incurred $5,593,000 and $2,438,000 of research and development expenses. Research and development costs increased due primarily to the addition of new employees, consultant costs and preclinical and clinical expenses and include $6.0 million of the expenses related to non-cash compensation. We anticipate our direct clinical costs to increase in second half of 2018 upon the initiation of a Phase 1 clinical trial of our most advanced TriKe product candidate, OXS-3550.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

During the six months ended June 31, 2018 and 2017, we incurred $6,724,000 and $385,000 of selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to an increase $1.3 million of professional fees, $1.2 million of public and investor relations expenses and $1.0 million of loan costs.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $6,855,000 and $4,698,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 respectively. The increase is primarily due to the current interest expense relates to the amortization of the original issue discount and the value of warrants issued with the January 2018 financing.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

Management is currently evaluating different strategies to obtain the required funding for future operations. These strategies may include but are not limited to: public offerings of equity and/or debt securities, payments from potential strategic research and development, and licensing and/or marketing arrangements with pharmaceutical companies. Management is also implementing cost saving efforts, including reduction in executive salaries. Management believes that these ongoing and planned financing endeavors, if successful, will provide adequate financial resources to continue as a going concern for at least the next six months from the date the financial statements are issued; however, there can be no assurance in this regard. If the Company is unable to secure adequate additional funding in 2018, its business, operating results, financial condition and cash flows may be materially and adversely affected.

Critical Accounting Policies

We consider the following accounting policies to be critical given they involve estimates and judgments made by management and are important for our investors’ understanding of our operating results and financial condition.

Long-Lived Assets

Our long-lived assets include property, plant and equipment, capitalized costs of filing patent applications and goodwill and other assets. We evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with ASC 360, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Estimates of future cash flows and timing of events for evaluating long-lived assets for impairment are based upon management’s judgment. If any of our intangible or long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the amount of impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over its fair value.

Applicable long-lived assets are amortized or depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives, the estimated period that the assets will generate revenue, or the statutory or contractual term in the case of patents. Estimates of useful lives and periods of expected revenue generation are reviewed periodically for appropriateness and are based upon management’s judgment. Goodwill and other assets are not amortized.

Certain Expenses and Liabilities

On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates related to certain expenses and accrued liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Inflation

We believe that inflation has not had a material adverse impact on our business or operating results during the periods presented.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2018.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

This company qualifies as a smaller reporting company, as defined in 17 C.F.R. §229.10(f) (1) and is not required to provide information by this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of June 30, 2018. Based on that evaluation we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2018.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by a company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

●

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

●

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

●

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

As of June 30, 2018, management of the company conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. In the course of the assessment, material weaknesses were identified in the company’s internal control over financial reporting.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management determined that fundamental elements of an effective control environment were missing or inadequate as of June 30, 2018. The most significant issues identified were: 1) lack of segregation of duties due to very small staff and significant reliance on outside consultants, and 2) risks of executive override also due to lack of established policies, and small employee staff. Based on the material weaknesses identified above, management has concluded that internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2018. As the company’s operations increase, the company intends to hire additional employees in its accounting department.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as described above, no changes in our internal control over financial reporting were made during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
