**PART I**
As used in this Annual Report, unless the context
otherwise requires, the terms ENDRA, we, us, our, and the Company
refer to ENDRA Life Sciences Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries.
**Item 1. Business**
**OVERVIEW**
We were incorporated as a Delaware
corporation in 2007. We are developing a next-generation enhanced ultrasound technology platformThermo- Acoustic Enhanced
Ultrasound, or TAEUS.
Our initial focus for the development and
commercialization of TAEUS is a solution for the assessment of liver fat, a key biomarker associated with metabolic diseases,
including metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and metabolic dysfunction-associated
steatohepatitis
(MASH).
Our objective is to develop a scalable biomarker
solution for metabolic disease assessment and management through a non-invasive, point- of-care approach.
We have periodically evaluated and refined
our vision, purpose, and go-to-market strategy with respect to TAEUS in response to evolving market conditions and development
priorities.
To support adoption across targeted market segments,
we are focused on:
| 
| Leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning models to enhance measurement accuracy accuracy
and reproducibility; | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Integrating thermo-acoustic technology with conventional ultrasound to streamline workflows and reduce
operator variability; and | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Reducing system size and cost to improve accessibility across care settings. | |
For our go-to-market strategy, we intend to focus
on serving these four markets:
| 
1. | Pharmaceutical Companies and Clinical Research Organizations (CROs); | |
| 
| | | |
| 
2. | High-end Primary Care Networks (Concierge Medicine); | |
| 
| | | |
| 
3. | Bariatric and Metabolic Clinics; and | |
| 
| | | |
| 
4. | Primary and Internal Medicine Practices. | |
We plan to offer a multi-year,
subscription-based business model with recurring revenue, while continuing to support traditional capital equipment sales with
associated service and upgrade offerings.
In 2025, the Company expanded its business
strategy to include a Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) initiative, managed in collaboration with Arca Investment
Management (Arca), which seeks to optimize capital preservation and generate non-dilutive returns through investments
in decentralized finance (DeFi) assets. This financial strategy operates in tandem with the Companys core
medical technology mission: the commercialization of the TAEUS platform via a recurring subscription model, with a specific focus on
the burgeoning GLP-1 and metabolic disease markets.
**RECENT DEVELOPMENTS**
We continue to examine the positioning
(need, cost, and technical considerations) of our TAEUS platform in the rapidly evolving market for point-of-care assessment of
liver fat disease against other opportunities for our platform, such as monitoring of thermo-ablative surgical procedures.
In 2026, we implemented cost reduction
measures, including a reduction in headcount and prioritization of development activities over clinical ones, to extend our
operating runway and focus resources on product improvements and regulatory strategy for our TAEUS liver application.
These actions are expected to impact the
timing of certain development activities, including delaying the timing of a future De Novo submission to the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) relating to our TAEUS liver application. We are continuing to refine our clinical and regulatory
strategy based on prior FDA feedback and ongoing development efforts.
1
On March 25, 2026, the Company announced that
its Board of Directors initiated a process to evaluate a range of strategic alternatives aimed at maximizing shareholder value. As a part
of this process, the Board will evaluate a range of potential alternatives, including, but not limited to strategic investments, mergers,
business combinations, in-licensing or collaboration arrangements, asset sales, or sale or merger of the Company. The Company has not
set a timetable for completion of the process, and there is no guarantee it will result in any transaction or other strategic outcome.
**THE IMPORTANCE OF UNDERSTANDING LIVER FAT**
The accumulation of fat in the liver, referred
to as steatotic liver disease (SLD), is a key biomarker of metabolic diseases, particularly MASH. MASH is a more severe
form of MASLD, characterized by liver inflammation and early fibrosis that can progress to cirrhosis, and even hepatocellular carcinoma,
and other life-threatening diseases. The presence of excess liver fat is strongly associated with metabolic disorders such as insulin
resistance, type 2 diabetes, and hypertension. Additionally, excess liver fat, particularly in the form of MASLD, is considered to be
a cardiometabolic risk factor, and studies show statistically significant correlation with increased incidence of kidney disease, cancer,
and neurodegenerative disease.
**OPPORTUNITY**
****
**Rising SLD with No Reliable, Inexpensive,
Point-of-Care Test**
SLD is a rapidly emerging global health
crisis, affecting over two billion people worldwide, including more than 100 million individuals in the United States. Despite its
prevalence and severe health implications, there remains a significant gap in reliable, affordable, and easily accessible
point-of-care tools to detect and monitor liver fat. As SLD continues to rise, its impact on public health and healthcare systems is
becoming more evident, particularly as it is strongly linked to metabolic syndrome and a range of chronic conditions such as
obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and even liver cancer.
Given its increasing prevalence, clinical
guidelines are now beginning to emphasize liver fat screening as a crucial component of metabolic disease management. Yet the lack
of an effective, widely available diagnostic tool remains a significant barrier to proper disease management and intervention.
**Emerging Therapeutics for Liver Fat Reduction**
****
Pharmaceutical advancements are opening new
doors for the treatment of SLD, particularly with the rise of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Originally developed for type 2 diabetes,
GLP-1 drugs have shown promise in treating a variety of conditions, including obesity, cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and
liver disease.
Multiple pharmaceutical companies are
actively developing GLP-1 receptor agonists and related therapies, reflecting significant industry investment in metabolic disease
treatment. As new therapies emerge, the need for improved diagnostic methods to identify and monitor patients undergoing treatment
is critical.
**Diagnostic Gaps: The Urgent Need for Improved
Liver Fat Detection**
Current methods for assessing liver fat
include MRI-based techniques and liver biopsy. MRI-based methods are effective but expensive and resource- intensive, limiting
routine use. Liver biopsy is invasive and not suitable for widespread screening or monitoring.
Alternative approaches, including
conventional ultrasound and blood-based tests, may lack sufficient accuracy or do not directly quantify liver fat. As a result,
there remains a need for non-invasive, cost-effective, point-of-care tools capable of assessing liver fat.
**The Future of Liver Fat Diagnosis and Management**
****
With the increasing availability of promising
new treatments, the demand for reliable, non-invasive, and cost-effective liver fat diagnostics is greater than ever. The ability to
accurately detect and monitor liver fat will be essential in guiding treatment decisions, evaluating therapeutic efficacy, and preventing
disease progression. As the medical community continues to prioritize liver fat screening in clinical guidelines, innovation in diagnostic
technologies will be key to addressing this growing health crisis.

**CURRENT TECHNOLOGY FOR LIVER FAT MEASUREMENT**
****
**CT and MRI Technologies**
Diagnostic imaging technologies such as computed
tomography (CT), MRI and ultrasound allow physicians to look inside a persons body to guide treatment or gather
information about medical conditions such as broken bones, cancers, signs of heart disease or internal bleeding. The type of imaging
technology a physician uses depends on a patients symptoms and the part of the body being examined. CT technology is well suited
for viewing bone injuries, diagnosing lung and chest problems, and detecting cancers. MRI technology excels at examining soft tissue
in ligament and tendon injuries, spinal cord injuries, and brain tumors.
Unfortunately, while CT and MRI systems are
versatile and create high quality images, they are also expensive and not always accessible to patients. A CT system costs
approximately $1 million and an MRI system can cost $3 million. CT and MRI systems are large and can weigh several tons, typically
requiring significant modifications to existing healthcare facilities to safely install the CT and MRI equipment. Because of their
size and weight, CT and MRI systems are usually fixed-in-place at major medical facilities. As a result, they are less accessible to
primary care and rural clinics, economically developing markets, and patient bedsides.
While CT and MRI systems create high quality
images, their use is not always practical. For example, metabolic disease detection, therapies response monitoring, and the efficient
screening and monitoring of subjects for new GLP-1 clinical trials requires ongoing surveillance of the patients livers and the
use of CT and MRI systems to perform that ongoing surveillance is impractical due to the high cost of the scan and the limited availability
of CT and MRI systems. Additionally, patient exposure to the ionizing radiation generated by a CT system must be limited for safety reasons.
Similarly, because of the strong magnetic field created by an MRI machine, patients with metal joint replacements or cardiac pacemakers
may be limited for safety reasons in their use of an MRI system.
**Ultrasound Technology**
****
An ultrasound system transmits sound waves, which
bounce off tissues, organs and blood in the body. The ultrasound system captures these echoes and uses them to create an image. Ultrasound
technology excels at imaging the structure of internal organs, muscles, and bone surfaces. Due to its utility, cost- effectiveness and
safety profile, ultrasound imaging is frequently used in a physicians examination room or at a patients bedside as a first-line
diagnostic tool, which has resulted in an overall increase in the number of ultrasound scans performed.
Ultrasound systems are more broadly available
to patients than either CT or MRI systems. There are an estimated 1.6 million diagnostic ultrasound systems globally in use today. Ultrasound
systems are relatively inexpensive compared to CT and MRI systems, with smaller portable ultrasound systems costing as little as $5,000
or less and new cart-based ultrasound systems costing between $50,000 and $200,000. Ultrasound systems are also more mobile than CT and
MRI systems and many are designed to be moved by an operator from room to room, or closer to patients. Ultrasound technology does not
present the same safety concerns as CT and MRI technology, since ultrasound does not emit ionizing radiation and ultrasound contrast
agents are generally considered to be safe.
However, ultrasounds imaging capabilities
are more limited compared to CT and MRI technology. Currently, ultrasound systems cannot measure tissue temperature during thermal ablation
surgery or quantify fat levels accurately across the stages of SLD to make to be effective for metabolic diseases detection and therapies
response monitoring, or the efficient screening and monitoring of subjects for GLP-1 clinical trials, where CT and MRI systems are used.
**OUR SOLUTION**
****
TAEUS technology uses a pulsed energy
sourcespecifically, radio frequency (RF)to transmit energy deep into tissue and generate ultrasonic
waves based on the tissue composition (or tissue chemistry), differentiating lean and fatty tissues. These waves are then detected
with ultrasound sensors at the skin surface and used to create high-contrast images (and other forms of data) using our proprietary
algorithms. Unlike conventional ultrasound, which creates images based on the scattering properties of tissue structure,
thermoacoustic imaging provides tissue absorption maps that differentiate lean and fatty tissues. Acoustic waves (ultrasound) are
only utilized to transmit the absorption signal to the imaging system outside of the body.
3
**Our TAEUS Technology Platform for Clinical
Applications**
****
To increase the versatility of our thermoacoustic
technology, we are developing TAEUS technology as a platform for multiple applications. Unlike the near-infrared light pulses used in
our earlier photoacoustic systems, our TAEUS technology uses RF pulses to stimulate tissues, using a small fraction of the energy that
is typically transmitted into the body during an MRI scan. Using RF energy enables TAEUS technology to penetrate deep into tissue, enabling
tissue composition at clinically relevant depths. The RF pulses are absorbed by tissue and converted into ultrasound signals, which are
detected by an external ultrasound receiver and a digital acquisition system that is part of the TAEUS system. The detected ultrasound
can then be processed into ultrasound overlays or quantitative data that may be translated into clinically useful metrics using our proprietary
algorithms and displayed to complement conventional gray-scale ultrasound images.
After required regulatory approvals, our
TAEUS technology can be added as a standalone system or as an accessory to existing ultrasound systems, helping to improve clinical
decision-making on the front lines of patient care, without requiring substantially new clinical workflows or large capital
investments. We also intend to offer a license for our TAEUS technology to OEMs, such as ultrasound and thermoablative capital
equipment makers, for incorporation in their new products.
We believe that our TAEUS technology has the
potential to add a number of new capabilities to conventional ultrasound, CT or MRI Imaging systems In our ex-vivo and in-vivo
testing, we have demonstrated that the TAEUS platform has the following capabilities and potential clinical applications:
| 
| Tissue composition assessment | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Temperature monitoring | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Vascular imaging | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Tissue perfusion analysis | |
**TAEUS Liver Device**
****
ENDRAs first clinical product is
designed to interface with a conventional ultrasound scanner, utilizing the scanners B-mode imaging to guide the selected
region for assessment of liver fat content. The following sub-systems comprise ENDRAs first generation product.
| 
| Energy Generation: The RF source consists of a low power waveform generator and a high gain amplifier.
Together, these components generate the characteristic pulses of energy required to excite thermoacoustic signals in tissue. | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Energy Delivery into Tissue: The RF applicator transmits pulses of energy generated by the RF source
into tissue. The applicator is positioned at the skin surface
in proximity to the target region for measurement and is designed to efficiently couple pulsed RF energy into target tissues. | |
| 
| Signal Detection: A receive only ultrasound transducer specifically designed and
optimized for thermoacoustic imaging. The transducer sub-system detects thermoacoustic signals
induced by the RF source within tissue. The transducer assembly is connected to high-speed electronics for signal amplification, digitization,
and processing. | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Computation and Display: The computer provides processing capability to both utilize the conventional
ultrasound data for navigation to the measurement site of interest, and the
calculations required to convert digitized thermoacoustic signals into estimates of fat content in liver tissue. The entire
sub-system will reside in a single enclosure, on wheels, and sit adjacent to the patient exam bed. A small digital touchscreen
display is used for both operator input and the display of data. | |
TAEUS platforms may provide two-dimensional
imaging with a transducer composed of multiple receive elements. ENDRA is currently developing an improved version of its
first-generation liver device. The RF source and applicator are similar to those in the first-generation product, but the
multi-element transducer would allow for multiple applications including reading tissue composition, response to thermoablative
procedures, vascular flow, tissue perfusion, and other potential applications.
4
**TARGET MARKETS**
We intend to initially focus on four
potential markets for the TAEUS liver device: 1) Pharmaceutical Companies and CROs, 2) High-end Primary Care Networks, 3) Bariatric
and Metabolic Clinics and 4) Primary and Internal Medicine at large. We expect that there will also be minimal focus on Hepatology
and Radiology customers.
**Pharmaceutical Companies and Clinical Research
Organizations (CROs)**
A growing number of pharmaceutical companies
are engaged in the development of GLP-1 and related metabolic disease therapies and recruiting patients for Phase 3 clinical trials
remains one of the most critical and challenging aspects of drug development.
| 
| GLP-1 Trials: The typical patient count for Phase 3 GLP-1 trials ranges between 1,000 and 3,000.
However, patient recruitment is complicated by screening failure rates, which can range between 20% and 50%. This means that to
secure 1,000 eligible participants, as many as 2,000 individuals must be screened. | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| MASH Trials: Similarly, Phase 3 clinical trials for MASH drugs require between 1,000 and 2,000 participants.
Given the complexity of the disease and eligibility requirements,
the screening process must cover between 2,500 and 10,000 candidates to meet the required participation levels. | |
These high screening failure rates contribute
to increased costs and extended timelines for clinical trials.
The financial burden of conducting late-stage
clinical trials is substantial. One key component of the cost structure is the use of Magnetic Resonance Proton Density Fat Fraction
(MR PDFF), a diagnostic tool commonly used in metabolic disease studies. One in three Phase 2 or 3 GLP-1 studies incorporates
MR PDFF during the trials. The cost for CROs to conduct these exams typically falls between $1,500 and $2,500 per patient, with a minimum
of two to three exams of each patient required per trial. There is a partial reimbursement, but its minimal. These costs underscore
the financial considerations that pharmaceutical companies must account for when planning large-scale trials.
**High-End Primary Care Networks (Concierge
Medicine)**
High-End Primary Care Networks, also known as
concierge medicine, have expanded in recent years, reflecting increased demand for personalized and preventative care models.
One area where concierge medicine can
differentiate itself is through advanced metabolic health monitoring, particularly liver fat fraction assessment. Early detection
and proactive management of liver fat accumulation can provide significant health benefits, particularly for patients at risk of
metabolic disorders, obesity, and diabetesconditions frequently encountered in concierge practices.
Concierge medicine thrives on offering
innovative health solutions that traditional primary care settings may not provide. New technologies are of high interest in this
sector, and cost is less of a concern, making our offering an attractive investment for concierge networks. By incorporating liver
fat fraction monitoring into routine patient assessments, it is possible that concierge physicians can:
| 
| Offer personalized preventative care; | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Enhance cardiometabolic risk management; | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Strengthen patient engagement and retention; and | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Set a new standard in concierge medicine. | |
**Bariatric and Metabolic Clinics**
****
Bariatric and metabolic clinics are on the
front lines of tackling obesity and related metabolic diseases, providing critical care to thousands of patients across the U.S. A
substantial and growing number of clinics are expanding their scope beyond weight loss to treat a broad range of metabolic disorders
including the prescription of GLP-1 receptor agonists to help regulate appetite and blood sugar levels.
5
While these clinics are leading the way in metabolic
disease management, one major challenge persiststhe high cost of diagnosing and monitoring metabolic conditions. Traditional methods,
such as MRI-based liver fat fraction assessments, are expensive, time-consuming, and often impractical for routine use.
Clinics generally rely on basic biometric
markers such as Body Mass Index (BMI) and ultrasound exams. BMI and ultrasound are not accurate predictors of liver
fat. Given the inaccuracy of biometric markers and ultrasound liver fat assessments, bariatric and metabolic clinics need more
affordable, scalable solutions to monitor metabolic diseases effectively.
**Primary and Internal Medicine Practices**
****
Obesity, diabetes, and liver disease are on the
rise in the U.S., placing an increasing burden on healthcare providers. Primary care and internal medicine physicians are on the front
lines, responsible for screening patients and monitoring their response to lifestyle changes and drug therapies. However, the prevailing
approach to diagnosing and tracking metabolic conditions remains costly and inefficient, largely due to the reliance on ineffective ultrasound
or expensive MRI-based liver fat fraction assessments.
Imaging centers and diagnostic labs play a
crucial role in liver disease detection. They are essential for screening obesity, diabetes, and metabolic disorders at scale.
However, most of these laboratories focus on blood-based markers for diabetes and liver disease. While blood tests provide valuable
insights, they do not directly measure liver fat fraction or structural changes in the livercritical indicators of metabolic
health.
**CLINICAL STUDIES, REGULATORY APPROVALS,
AND COMMERCIALIZATION**
****
**Regulatory Market Access Approval Pathway
and Human Study**
****
Each of our TAEUS platform applications will
require regulatory approvals before we are able to sell or license the application. Based on certain factors, such as the installed
base of ultrasound systems, availability of other imaging technologies, such as CT and MRI, economic strength and applicable
regulatory requirements, we intend to seek approval of our liver device for sale in the European Union, and the United States and
may later seek approval in other markets.
We previously collaborated with certain
research hospitals in North America and Europe for the conduct of clinical studies comparing our TAEUS clinical system to MRI PDFF
in the measurement of liver fat. These agreements provided for clinical trials to collect data and user feedback to inform the
further development of our TAEUS clinical system.
**FDA De Novo Request**
****
In the third quarter of 2023, we submitted a
De Novo request to the FDA that included as support clinical data gathered from human studies comparing liver fat measurements by
our TAEUS liver device to measurements by MRI-PDFF. In the fourth quarter of 2023, the FDA sent an Additional Information request
related to our De Novo application. In order to fully respond to the FDAs questions, we were required to compile additional
clinical data, provide additional device test data, and respond to cybersecurity related questions in a new De Novo submission. In
light of the need for additional clinical data, the original De Novo application was formally closed by the FDA on April 24, 2024 in
line with FDA internal procedures. In light of the cost reduction measures described above under Recent Developments,
we have halted the clinical activity necessary to support a new De Novo application and do not presently intend to restart such
activity unless and until we have increased resources available for such purpose.
**Sales and Marketing**
****
We previously established commercial
infrastructure in Europe; however, in connection with cost reduction initiatives, we have reduced certain commercial activities and
are prioritizing regulatory and clinical milestones, particularly in the United States.
6
We expect to pursue commercialization
through a focused direct sales model, supplemented over time by partnerships and channel relationships, subject to regulatory
approvals and resource availability.
We plan to implement a new low barrier-to-entry,
multi-year, subscription-based business model with monthly recurring revenue.
Based on our assessment of the medical
capital equipment market, we intend to price our initial liver TAEUS system competitively taking into the consideration multiple
factors such as TAEUSs clinical value, customer ROI and competitive differentiation compared to alternatives.
**ENGINEERING, DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING**
We use suppliers of components and contract
manufacturers to design, assemble and test the TAEUS liver system. Suppliers are vetted before engaging in work with the Company and
are reviewed annually, as part of our quality management system, to assure their performance meets our needs. We maintain internal
processes to monitor designs, inventory and supply of key components needed to manufacture our TAEUS liver system. We plan
production in accordance with anticipated commercialization and sales timelines and availability and lead times of needed
materials.
**REGULATION**
**European Union**
The primary regulatory environment in Europe
is the European Union. In the European Union, applications incorporating our TAEUS technology are regulated as Class IIa medical devices.
Our MASLD TAEUS application has received, and we expect our future applications will need to receive, certification from a Notified Body
required to CE mark our applications as a result of successful review of one or more submissions prepared by our contract engineering
and manufacturer(s), so that such applications can be marketed and distributed within the European Economic Area. Each of our applications
will be required to be regularly recertified for CE marking, which require period ISO audits and MDR conformity audits. The audit process,
which will include on-site visits at our facility, and possibly the contract manufacturers(s) facility(ies), will require
us to provide the contract manufacturer(s) with information and documentation concerning our quality management system and all applicable
documents, policies, procedures, manuals, and other information. Additionally, in order to import our devices into various EU countries,
we must comply with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) and the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation
and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH). We have undertaken a number of steps that both we and our suppliers are compliant
with RoHS and REACH in order to do business in the European Union.
In the European Union, the manufacturer of medical
devices is subject to current Good Manufacturing Practice, specifically ISO 13485, as set forth in the relevant recognized standards,
laws and guidelines of the European Union and its member states. Compliance with ISO 13485 is assessed by a Notified Body accredited
by a Competent Authority under the MDR. For a Class IIa device, typically, quality system evaluation is performed by the Notified Body,
which also provides the certifications necessary to fix a CE mark to the products. The Notified Body may conduct inspections of relevant
facilities, and review manufacturing procedures, operating systems and personnel qualifications. In addition to obtaining certification
for each application, in many cases each device manufacturing facility must be audited on a periodic basis by the Notified Body. Further
inspections may occur over the life of the application.
We also must comply with data privacy
regulations in the European Union and the UK. The collection and use of health data and other personal data including data collected
in clinical trials is governed in the EU by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which imposes substantial
obligations upon companies and new rights for individuals. The GDPR also forms part of the law of Great Britain (England and Wales,
Scotland and Northern Ireland) by virtue of section 3 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and as amended by the Data
Protection, Privacy and Electronic Communications (Amendments etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (SI 2019/419) (UK
GDPR). Failure to comply with the GDPR may result in fines of the higher of (i) 20,000,000 or (ii) 4% of the preceding
fiscal years total annual global revenues of the noncompliant company, among other administrative penalties, depending on the
nature and severity of the violation. Although we do not expect to process any personal data from the operation of our products, the
GDPR has increased our responsibility and potential liability in relation to personal data involved in the operation of our
products, and we may be required to implement additional measures in order to comply with the GDPR and with other laws, rules,
regulations and standards in the EU and UK relating to privacy and data protection. This may be onerous and if our efforts to comply
with GDPR or other applicable laws, rules, regulations and standards are not successful, or are perceived to be unsuccessful, it
could adversely affect our business.
7
**FDA Regulation**
****
Each of our products must be approved, granted
or cleared by the FDA before it is marketed in the United States. Before and after approval, grant or clearance in the United States,
our applications are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act)
and/or the Public Health Service Act, as well as by other regulatory bodies. The FDA regulations govern, among other things, the development,
testing, manufacturing, labeling, safety, storage, record-keeping, market clearance or approval, advertising and promotion, import and
export, marketing and sales, and distribution of medical devices and pharmaceutical products.
Section 513(f)(2) of the FD&C Act allows
manufacturers to submit a De Novo request to the FDA for devices automatically classified into Class III by operation
of section 513(f)(1). Pursuant to the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act (the FDAMA), in order to submit a
De Novo request, a device first has to be found not substantially equivalent (NSE) to legally-marketed predicate
devices through a premarket notification (510(k)). Section 513(f)(2) was modified by section 607 of Food and Drug Administration
Safety and Innovation Act, which created an alternative mechanism for submitting a De Novo request that does not require that a
device be reviewed first under a 510(k) and found NSE prior to submission of a De Novo request. If a device manufacturer believes
their device is appropriate for classification into Class I or Class II and determines, based on currently available information,
there is no legally marketed predicate device, they may submit a De Novo request without a preceding 510(k).
We believe that our device is appropriate
for classification into Class II and, based on available information, that there is no legally marketed predicate device. Hence, we
expect that our device will require FDA De Novo grant prior to being legally marketed, and plan to submit any De Novo request
without a preceding 510(k).
**ENVIRONMENTAL**
Our manufacturing processes involve the use,
generation, and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes, including alcohol, adhesives, and cleaning materials. As such, we are subject
to stringent federal, state, and local laws relating to the protection of the environment, including those governing the use, handling,
and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes. We believe we are in material compliance; however, future regulatory changes may increase
costs.
**COMPETITION**
While we believe that we are the only
company developing RF-based thermoacoustic ultrasound products, we face direct and indirect competition from a number of
competitors, many of whom have greater financial, sales and marketing and other resources than we do, and offer alternatives to
RF-based thermoacoustic technology for measuring the fat content of liver with ultrasound machines.
Manufacturers of ultrasound and MRI systems include
multi-national corporations such as GE Healthcare, Royal Philips, Siemens Healthineers, Canon Corporation, and Fujifilm Corporation.
There is another smaller but emerging market of low-end hand-held ultrasound competitors that could pursue some liver-related applications.
In the SLD diagnosis market we will compete with makers of surgical biopsy tools, such as Cook Medical and Sterylab S.r.l. In the thermal
ablation market, we will compete with manufacturers of surgical temperature probes, such as Medtronic plc and St. Jude Medical, Inc.****
****
**HUMAN CAPITAL**
As of December 31, 2025, we had 11 employees,
9 of whom are employed on a full-time basis. Geographically, 10 people were in the United States and one was in Canada. Following the
cost reductions measures described under Recent Developments above, our number of employees has been reduced to 4, and 3
former employees have transitioned to contractor roles. None of our employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and we
believe our relationship with our employees is good.
****
8
We also engage contractors, technical and
scientific advisors and other experts, on an as-needed basis, to supplement existing staff. We believe that these advisors provide
us with necessary expertise in clinical ultrasound applications, ultrasound technology, and intellectual property.
**OTHER POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS OF OUR TECHNOLOGY**
****
We are exploring additional potential applications
of TAEUS technology, including thermal ablation monitoring, vascular imaging, and tissue perfusion analysis.
These applications remain under development and
there can be no assurance as to their technical feasibility, regulatory approval, or commercial viability.
****
**INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY**
We rely on a combination of patent, copyright,
trademark and trade secret laws and agreements with employees and third parties to establish and protect our proprietary intellectual
property rights. We require our officers, employees and consultants to enter into standard agreements containing provisions requiring
confidentiality of proprietary information and assignment to us of all inventions made during the course of their employment or consulting
relationship. We also enter into nondisclosure agreements with our commercial counterparties and limit access to, and distribution of,
our proprietary information.
We are committed to developing and
protecting our intellectual property and, where appropriate, filing patent applications to protect our technology. Our issued and
pending patents claims are directed at the following areas related to our technology:
| 
| Methods to induce and enhance thermoacoustic signal generation; | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| System configurations, devices and novel hardware for transmission of RF pulses into tissue and detection
of acoustic signals; | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Methods for integrating our devices with existing conventional ultrasound systems; and | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Methods and algorithms for signal processing, image formation and analysis. | |
As of December 31, 2025, we maintained a
patent portfolio consisting of 42 patents issued in the United States and 45 issued patents in foreign jurisdictions, 4 patent
applications pending in the United States and 14 patent applications pending internationally relating to our technology. These
patents and patent applications largely cover certain innovations relating to fat imaging, fat quantitation, and temperature
monitoring in the liver and other tissues.
Each of our utility patents generally has a term
of 20 years from its respective priority (earliest filing) date. Design patents have a term of 14 years from the filing date of the respective
application. Among our issued utility patents in the U.S., the first patent is set to expire in 2033 and the last patent is set to expire
in 2043.
**DIGITAL ASSET TREASURY STRATEGY**
The Companys DAT strategy focuses on
cryptocurrency, and specifically a strategy of holding one to five decentralized finance digital assets, beginning with $HYPE, the
native digital asset of the Hyperliquid network (HYPE). Additionally, we intend to monitor ongoing developments in the
regulatory environment around cryptocurrencies, including pending federal legislation, and may modify or expand our DAT strategy to
the extent we determine compliant with federal rules and regulations and not giving rise to a requirement that the Company register
as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). While HYPE serves as our
initial primary treasury reserve asset, we intend to accumulate a long-term position in one to five decentralized finance digital
assets, including HYPE, that are intrinsically linked to a blockchain system, and the value of which is derived from or is
reasonably expected to be derived from the use of the blockchain system.
9
Other than acquiring cryptocurrency with our
liquid assets that exceed working capital requirements, our DAT strategy may also involve issuing debt or equity securities or
engaging in other capital raising transactions with the objective of using the majority of proceeds to purchase cryptocurrency from
time to time, subject to market conditions. We have not set any specific target for the amount of cryptocurrency we seek to hold,
although under our DAT strategy we will maintain a majority of our holdings in one to five decentralized finance digital assets,
including HYPE and other blockchain-linked cyptocurrencies. We will continue to monitor market conditions in determining whether to
engage in financings to purchase additional cryptocurrency. This overall strategy also contemplates that we may
(i)periodically sell cryptocurrency for general corporate purposes, including to generate cash for treasury management (which
may include debt repayment, if appropriate at such time), for acquisitions, or for strategies that generate tax benefits in
accordance with applicable law, (ii)enter into additional capital raising transactions that are collateralized by our
cryptocurrency holdings, and (iii)pursue strategies to create income streams or otherwise generate funds using our
cryptocurrency holdings (for example, generating premium income by selling call options related to cryptocurrencies).
**Asset Manager**
In connection with the Companys DAT strategy,
the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Investment Management Agreement (the
Investment Management Agreement)
with Arca, pursuant to which Arca provides active asset management services in accordance with the investment strategy and investment
objectives, policies, guidelines and restrictions as agreed to from time to time by the Company and Arca. Arca has discretion to manage
funds allocated to the Companys DAT strategy, focusing on decentralized finance, including, without limitation, by purchasing
one to five decentralized finance digital assets, such as HYPE, directly or indirectly through the use of derivative instruments. The
Investment Management Agreement may be terminated by either the Company or Arca upon not more than sixty (60) days but not less
than thirty (30) days written notice to the other party.
**Custody**
****
The Company holds substantially all of its
DAT assets in custody accounts at Anchorage Digital Bank, N.A. (Anchorage), a U.S.-based, institutional- grade
custodian. As the Company develops its DAT strategy, it may expand its holdings to multiple similar custodians. In connection with
its DAT strategy, Company entered into a Master Custody Service Agreement with Anchorage (the Custody Agreement),
pursuant to which it will act as custodian of the Companys digital assets it deposits with Anchorage. Services provided by
Anchorage will include storage of digital assets and related settlement and support services. Under the Custody Agreement, Anchorage
does not have the authority to assign, hypothecate, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of our digital assets, subject to a lien
to secure payment to Anchorage in respect of its services. The Custody Agreement has an initial term of one year, at which time it
will automatically renew for successive renewal terms unless either party provides no less than 30 days prior written
notice.
**Item 1A. Risk Factors**
*Investing in our common stock involves a high
degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risks and all other information contained in this Annual Report, including
our financial statements and the related notes, before investing in our securities. The risks and uncertainties described below are not
the only ones we face but include the most significant factors currently known by us that make investing in our securities speculative
or risky. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, also may become important
factors that affect us. If any of the following risks materialize, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be
materially harmed. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you may lose some or all of your investment. The
risks and uncertainties described below reflect the Companys beliefs and opinions as to factors that could materially and adversely
affect the Company and its securities in the future. References to past events are provided by way of example only and are not intended
to be a complete listing or a representation as to whether or not such factors have occurred in the past or their likelihood of occurring
in the future.*

10
**RISK FACTOR SUMMARY**
Below is a bulleted summary of our principal risk
factors, however this list does not fully represent all of our known risk factors. We encourage you to carefully review the full risk
factors contained in this Annual Report in their entirety for additional information regarding the material factors that make an investment
in our securities speculative or risky. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:
**Risks Related to our Business**
| 
| We have a history of operating losses, we may never achieve or maintain profitability, and we will need to raise significant additional
capital if we are going to continue as a going concern. | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| | Our activities to evaluate and pursue potential strategic alternatives may not result in any transaction or enhance stockholder value. | |
| 
| We may not be able to successfully execute our business model. | |
| 
| Our efforts may never result in the successful development of commercial applications based on our TAEUS technology, on which our
success is substantially dependent. | |
| 
| Our TAEUS platform applications may not achieve adequate market acceptance by the physicians, patients, third-party payors and others
in the medical community. | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| If customers are not trained and/or the Companys products are used by non-licensed practitioners,
it could result in product misuse and potential adverse treatment outcomes, which could harm the Companys reputation, result in
product liability litigation, distract management and result in additional costs, all of which could harm the Companys business. | |
| 
| We may not become commercially viable if there is an inadequate level of reimbursement by governmental programs and other third-party
payors for our planned products or associated procedures. | |
| 
| We have limited resources and depend on third parties to design and manufacture, and seek regulatory approval of, our TAEUS applications. | |
| 
| We will need to develop marketing and distribution capabilities both internally and through our relationships with third parties in
order to sell any of our TAEUS products receiving regulatory approval. | |
| 
| Competition in the medical imaging market is intense and we may be unable to successfully compete. | |
| 
| The medical device market is characterized by rapid innovation. To compete effectively, the Company may need to develop and/or acquire
new products, seek regulatory clearance, market them successfully, and identify new markets for the Companys technology. | |
| 
| We intend to market our TAEUS liver device in the EU and are subject to the risks of doing business outside of the United States. | |
| 
| There is no assurance that, if approved, the Companys TAEUS applications will be widely adopted by customers or their patients | |
| 
| If we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully manage our business and achieve our
objectives. | |
| 
| Misdiagnosis, warranty and other claims, as well as product field actions and regulatory proceedings, initiated against us could increase
our costs, delay or reduce our sales and damage our reputation. | |
| 
| Public health crises could adversely impact our business, including our pre-sales activities, clinical trials and ability to obtain
regulatory approvals. | |
**Risks Related to Intellectual Property and Other Legal Matters**
| 
| If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, which entails significant expense and resources, then our financial condition,
results of operations and the value of our technology and products could be adversely affected. | |
| 
| Policing unauthorized use of our proprietary rights can be difficult, expensive and time-consuming, and we might be unable to determine
the extent of this unauthorized use. | |
| 
| Intellectual property rights may not provide adequate protection, which may permit third parties to compete against us more effectively. | |
11
**Risks Related to Government Regulation**
| 
| If we fail to obtain and maintain necessary regulatory clearances or approvals for our TAEUS applications, or if clearances or approvals
for future applications and indications are delayed or not issued, our commercial operations will be harmed. | |
| 
| Disruptions at the FDA, including due to a reduction in the FDAs workforce and/or inadequate funding for the FDA, could prevent
the FDA from performing normal functions on which our business relies, which could negatively impact our business. | |
| 
| Healthcare reform measures could hinder or prevent our planned products commercial success. | |
| 
| If we fail to comply with healthcare regulations, we could face substantial penalties and our business, operations and financial condition
could be adversely affected. | |
**Risks Related to Owning Our Securities**
| 
| Our stock is subject to minimum requirements to remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, including a minimum bid price requirement
and stockholders equity requirement, and may be delisted if it does not maintain compliance with those requirements. | |
| 
| Nasdaq has proposed enhanced listing standards, which could adversely affect our ability to maintain our Nasdaq listing and access
to capital markets. | |
| 
| Our quarterly and annual results may fluctuate significantly, may not fully reflect the underlying performance of our business and
may result in volatility in the price of our securities. | |
| 
| Our stock price has fluctuated in the past, has recently been volatile and may be volatile in the future for reasons unrelated to
our operating performance or prospects, and as a result, investors in our common stock could incur substantial losses. | |
| 
| We may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention. | |
| 
| If we are unable to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, including
by remediating current material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy
and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our securities may decrease. | |
| 
| Our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud. | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| Future sales and issuances of our common stock or rights to purchase common stock, including pursuant
to our at-the-market offering program or equity incentive plan, could result in dilution of the percentage ownership of our stockholders
and could cause the price of our securities to fall. | |
| 
| Our charter documents and Delaware law may inhibit a takeover that stockholders consider favorable. | |
**Risks Related to Our Digital Asset
Treasury Strategy**
| 
| We have limited experience in managing a digital asset treasury, and our expectations regarding the DAT strategy and our ability to
execute such strategy successfully are subject to inherent uncertainties. | |
| 
| The prices of digital assets, including the HYPE tokens and other DeFi-related assets we hold, are extremely volatile. Fluctuations
in the price of these assets may significantly impact our financial condition and the reported value of our assets. | |
| 
| Digital asset holdings are generally less liquid than our existing cash and cash equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source
of liquidity to the same extent as cash in the event of an immediate need for operational funding. | |
| 
| Our strategy involves active management, including staking, options overlays, and participation in DeFi protocols. These activities
involve technical risks, including smart contract vulnerabilities, slashing penalties in staking, and the potential failure
of decentralized exchanges or protocols. | |
| 
| While we utilize third-party custodians (such as Anchorage Digital Bank), the loss of private keys, security breaches, or the insolvency
of a custodian could result in the total loss of our digital asset holdings. | |
| 
| Digital asset markets are subject to evolving and potentially unfavorable regulatory developments in the U.S. and abroad. Changes
in laws or regulations could restrict our ability to hold, trade, or utilize digital assets as part of our treasury. | |
12
| 
| If our digital asset holdings are determined to be investment securities, we could be classified as an investment
company under the Investment Company Act. Such a determination would subject us to significant additional regulation and could have
a material adverse effect on our business. | |
| 
| The accounting for digital assets is complex and subject to change. Furthermore, the U.S. and foreign tax treatment of digital assets
is uncertain and could result in unexpected tax liabilities. | |
| 
| Our common stock price may become highly correlated to the market price of the digital assets we hold,
which could lead to extreme volatility in our share price that is unrelated to the performance of our TAEUS medical technology. | |
| 
| 
| 
Absent of federal regulations, there is a possibility that certain cryptocurrencies may be classified as securities. Any classification of a cryptocurrency as a security would subject us to additional regulation and could materially impact the operation of our business. | |
| 
| 
| 
We, in connection with our DAT strategy, are not subject to legal and regulatory obligations that apply to investment companies such as mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, or to obligations applicable to investment advisers. | |
| 
| 
| 
We may be subject to regulatory developments related to crypto assets and crypto asset markets, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. | |
**General Risk Factors**
| 
| Our business is affected by macroeconomic conditions. | |
| 
| Our cash and cash equivalents could be adversely affected if the financial institutions in which we hold our cash and cash equivalents
fail. | |
| 
| The ongoing military action in Ukraine and the Middle East could have negative impact on the global economy, which could materially
adversely affect our business, operations, operating results and financial condition. | |
| 
| Our business could be negatively impacted by corporate social responsibility and sustainability matters. | |
**Risks Related to Our Business**
**We have a history of operating losses and
will need to raise significant additional capital to continue our business and operations. If we are unable to raise capital or secure
financing on favorable terms, or at all, to meet our capital and operating needs, we will be forced to delay or reduce our product development
program and commercialization efforts, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.**
We are experiencing financial and operating challenges.
We have only generated limited revenues to date and have a history of losses from operations. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated
deficit of $110.4 million. Our independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on our financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2025, has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. To remain viable, we will require additional
capital in the near term to proceed with the commercialization of our planned TAEUS applications and to meet our growth targets. Our near-term
capital needs include supporting the hiring of personnel, payroll and benefits, continued scientific and potential product research and
development, clinical studies to support an FDA De Novo submission, expenses associated with the development of relationships with strategic
partners, intellectual property development and prosecution, funding the costs of seeking regulatory approval of TAEUS applications, expanding
our sales and marketing infrastructure, capital expenditures, working capital, responses to business opportunities, and general and administrative
expenses.
We are actively exploring additional sources of
liquidity and may seek to raise such capital through, among other means, public or private equity offerings (including sales of our common
stock under our at-the-market equity offering program), debt financings, corporate collaborations and/or licensing arrangements. However,
general market conditions or the market price of our common stock may not support these capital raising transactions on terms favorable
to us, or at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financings on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, we will
be forced to undertake capital preservation measures that may include delaying or reducing our product development programs and commercialization
efforts, materially curtailing or eliminating our operations, selling or disposing of our rights or assets, pursuing a sale or other strategic
transactions, or undergoing restructuring or insolvency proceedings. Factors that could limit our ability to raise additional capital
include, among other matters:
| 
| the expectation that we will continue to incur losses and generate negative cash flows from operations; | |
| 
| our substantially limited liquidity and capital resources to meet our obligations as they become due; | |
| 
| the potential that our common stock will be delisted by Nasdaq in the event we fail to regain compliance with the minimum stockholders
equity requirement; and | |
| 
| risks and uncertainties that are described in more detail in the Risk Factors and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations sections in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. | |
13
Additionally, on October 10, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase
agreement (the Securities Purchase Agreement) with certain accredited investors, which included a provision that the Company
shall not issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common
Stock equivalents at a price per share less than $6.57 until October 10, 2026, subject to certain exceptions.
To date, we have financed our operations through the net proceeds from
offerings of shares of common and preferred stock, warrants and convertible notes. Our future funding requirements will depend on many
factors, including, but not limited to:
| 
| the costs, timing and outcomes of regulatory reviews associated with our future products, including TAEUS applications; | |
| 
| the progress, timing, costs and outcomes of our clinical studies, including the ability to timely enroll patients in such clinical
trials; | |
| 
| the costs and expenses of expanding our sales and marketing infrastructure; | |
| 
| the costs and timing of developing variations of our TAEUS applications and, if necessary, obtaining regulatory clearance of such
variations; | |
| 
| the degree of success we experience in commercializing our products, particularly our TAEUS applications; | |
| 
| the extent to which our TAEUS applications are adopted by hospitals for use by primary care physicians, hepatologists, radiologists
and oncologists for diagnosis of fatty liver disease and the thermal ablation of lesions; | |
| 
| the number and types of future products we develop and commercialize; | |
| 
| the costs of preparing, filing and prosecuting patent applications and maintaining, enforcing and defending intellectual property-related
claims; | |
| 
| the extent and scope of our general and administrative expenses; | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| the outcome, timing and cost of regulatory approvals, including the potential that the FDA or comparable regulatory authorities may
require that we perform more studies than those that we currently expect; | |
| 
| the amount of sales and other revenues from technologies and products that we may commercialize, if any, including the selling prices
for such potential products and the availability of adequate third-party reimbursement; | |
| 
| the terms and timing of any potential future collaborations, licensing or other arrangements that we may establish; | |
| 
| cash requirements of any future acquisitions and/or the development of other products; | |
| 
| the costs of operating as a public company; | |
| 
| the cost and timing of completion of commercial-scale, outsourced manufacturing activities; | |
| 
| the time and cost necessary to respond to technological and market developments; | |
| 
| the success of our DAT strategy; | |
| 
| regulatory developments regarding digital assets and digital asset markets; | |
| 
| the accounting treatment for digital assets; and | |
| 
| the trading price of digital assets that we own and the liquidity in the markets in which they are traded. | |
14
**Our activities to evaluate and pursue potentialstrategic
alternativesmay not result in any transaction or enhance stockholder value.**
We have begun evaluating and exploring a variety ofstrategic
alternativesfocused on maximizing stockholder value, including, but not limited to, strategic investments, mergers, business combinations,
in-licensing or collaboration arrangements, asset sales, or sale or merger of the Company. Our ability to successfully execute on any
strategic alternative is dependent on a number of factors and we may not be able to execute upon a transaction or other strategic alternative
upon favorable terms within an advantageous timeframe and recognize significant value for our assets, if at all. Additionally, the negotiation
and consummation of a transaction or other strategic alternative may be costly and time-consuming. Any executed strategic alternative
may not maximize or even enhance stockholder value, could result in total costs and expenses that are greater than expected, could make
it more difficult to attract and retain qualified personnel and may disrupt our operations, each of which could have a material adverse
effect on our business.
The market price of our common stock may reflect a market assumption
that a strategic alternative will occur, and a failure to complete a strategic alternative could result in negative investor perceptions
and could cause a decline in the market price of our common stock, which could adversely affect our ability to access the equity and financial
markets, as well as our ability to explore and enter into differentstrategic alternatives. There can be no certainty that any strategic
alternative will be completed, be on attractive terms, enhance stockholder value or deliver the anticipated benefits, and successful integration
or execution of thestrategic alternativeswill be subject to additional risks. In addition, potentialstrategic alternativesthat
require stockholder approval may not be approved by our stockholders. If we do not successfully consummate a strategic alternative, our
board of directors may decide to pursue a dissolution and liquidation of our company. In such an event, the amount of cash available for
distribution to our stockholders will depend heavily on the timing of such liquidation, the amount of cash that will need to be reserved
for commitments and contingent liabilities. Depending on these factors, the amount available for distribution to our common stockholders
could be as low as zero and result in a total loss of investment to our stockholders.
**We may not be able to successfully execute our TAEUS business
model**.
We are a company with limited operating history
and we may not have the necessary resources, expertise and experience to successfully execute our TAEUS business model on a global scale,
such as obtaining the necessary approvals or clearances from the regulatory agencies of our target markets. Our ability to execute our
model is dependent on a number of factors, including the ability of our senior management team to execute our model, our ability to incentivize,
train and support international distribution partners in different geographic regions, our ability to begin or maintain our pace of product
development, manufacturing and commercialization, our ability to meet the changing needs of the medical imaging market, and the ability
of our employees to perform at a high-level. If we are unable to execute our model, or if our model does not drive the growth that we
anticipate, or if our TAEUS market opportunity is not as large as we have estimated, it could adversely affect our business and our prospects.
**Our TAEUS platform applications may not
achieve adequate market acceptance by physicians, patients, third-party payors and others in the medical community.**
Our TAEUS applications that receive regulatory
approval may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients, third-party payors and others in the medical
community. If our TAEUS applications do not achieve an adequate level of acceptance, we may not generate significant product revenues
or any profits from sales. The degree of market acceptance of products based on our TAEUS platform will depend on a number of factors,
including:
| 
| potential or perceived advantages or disadvantages compared to alternative products; | |
| 
| pricing relative to competitive products and availability of third-party coverage or reimbursement; | |
| 
| the timing of bringing our product to market as compared to possible other new entrants to the market; | |
| 
| our ability to effectively raise market awareness and explain product benefits and whether we have resources sufficient to do so; | |
| 
| relative convenience, dependability and ease of administration; and | |
| 
| willingness of the target patient population to try new products and of physicians to utilize such products. | |
Our revenues will be adversely affected if, due
to these or other factors, the products we are able to commercialize do not gain significant market acceptance.
**If customers are not trained and/or the
Company****s products are used by non-licensed practitioners, it could result in product misuse and potential adverse
treatment outcomes, which could harm the Company****s reputation, result in product liability litigation, distract management
and result in additional costs, all of which could harm the Company****s business.**
If the Companys products are used by non-licensed
or untrained practitioners, it could result in product misuse and adverse treatment outcomes, which could harm the Companys reputation
and the Companys business. The Companys products may be purchased or operated by physicians with varying levels of training,
and in many states, by non-physicians. Outside the U.S., many jurisdictions do not require specific qualifications or training for purchasers
or operators of its products. The Company will not be able to supervise the procedures performed with the Companys applications,
nor does the Company require that direct medical supervision occur that is determined by state law. The Company and its distributors intend
to offer but do not require product training to the purchasers or operators of the Companys products. In addition, the Company
may sell its systems to companies that rent its systems to third parties and that provide a technician to perform the procedures. The
lack of training and the purchase and use of its products by non-physicians may result in product misuse and adverse treatment outcomes,
which could harm the Companys reputation and its business, and, in the event these actions result in product liability litigation,
distract management and subject the Company to liability, including legal expenses.
15
****
**We may not become commercially viable if
there is an inadequate level of reimbursement by governmental programs and other third-party payors for our planned products or associated
procedures.**
Medical imaging products are purchased principally
by hospitals, physicians and other healthcare providers around the world that typically bill various third-party payors, including governmental
programs (*e.g.*, Medicare and Medicaid in the United States), private insurance plans and managed care programs, for the services
provided to their patients.
Third-party payors and governments may approve
or deny coverage for certain technologies and associated procedures based on independently determined assessment criteria. Reimbursement
decisions by payors for these services are based on a wide range of methodologies that may reflect the services assessed resource
costs, clinical outcomes and economic value. These reimbursement methodologies and decisions confer different, and sometimes conflicting,
levels of financial risk and incentives to healthcare providers and patients, and these methodologies and decisions are subject to frequent
refinements. Third-party payors are also increasingly adjusting reimbursement rates, often downwards, indirectly challenging the prices
charged for medical products and services. There can be no assurance that our products will be covered by third-party payors, that adequate
reimbursement will be available or, even if payment is available, that third-party payors coverage policies will not adversely
affect our ability to sell our products profitably.
**We have limited data regarding the efficacy
of our TAEUS platform applications. If any of our applications that receive regulatory approval do not perform in accordance with our
expectations, we are unlikely to successfully commercialize our applications.**
Although we have completed a number of studies
with respect to our TAEUS liver device, we have limited data regarding the efficacy of other TAEUS platform applications. Since our success
depends in large part on the medical and third-party payor communitys acceptance of our TAEUS applications, even if we receive
regulatory approval for our applications, we believe that we will need to obtain additional clinical data from users of our applications
to persuade medical professionals to use our applications. We may also be required to conduct post-approval clinical testing to obtain
such additional data. Clinical testing is expensive, can take a significant amount of time to complete and can have uncertain outcomes.
Negative results of these clinical studies could have a material, adverse impact on our business.
**We cannot be certain that results from limited
human studies of our TAEUS liver device will be indicative of future studies or that any of our TAEUS applications will be successfully
commercialized.**
To successfully commercialize any application
based on our TAEUS platform technology, we expect it will be necessary to conduct various pre-clinical and human studies to demonstrate
that the product is safe and effective for human use. For instance, we have conducted a number of human studies with respect to our TAEUS
liver device. These studies have initially demonstrated a meaningful correlation between the measurement of liver fat by our TAEUS FLIP
product and by MRI-PDFF. However, there can be no assurance that results from these studies are indicative of results that would be achieved
in future studies of this or any future TAEUS applications, which may be required in order for our applications incorporating our technology
to obtain or maintain regulatory approval. Even if clinical trials or other studies demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of any applications
of our technology and the necessary regulatory approvals are obtained, the commercial success of any of such application will depend upon
their acceptance by patients, the medical community, and third-party payers and on our partners ability to successfully manufacture
and commercialize a device for such application.
**Our limited commercial experience makes
it difficult to evaluate our business, predict our future results or forecast our financial performance and growth.**
We discontinued our initial pre-clinical Nexus
128 product in 2019 and our TAEUS liver device has previously obtained CE mark certification but has not yet been fully commercialized.
This limited commercial experience makes it difficult to evaluate our business, predict our future results or forecast our financial performance
and growth. If our assumptions regarding the risks and uncertainties we face, which we use to plan our business, are incorrect or change
due to circumstances in our business or our markets, or if we do not address these risks successfully, our operating and financial results
could differ materially from our expectations and our business could suffer.
16
**We may in the future form or seek, strategic
alliances and collaborations or enter into licensing arrangements, and we may not realize the benefits of such alliances, collaborations
or licensing arrangements.**
We intend in the future to form or seek additional
strategic alliances, create joint ventures or collaborations or enter into licensing arrangements with third parties that we believe will
complement or augment our development and commercialization efforts with respect to our technologies and applications.
Any of these relationships may require us to incur
non-recurring and other charges, increase our near- and long-term expenditures, issue securities that dilute our existing stockholders,
restrict our ability to collaborate with other third parties or otherwise disrupt our management and business. In addition, we face significant
competition in seeking appropriate strategic partners and the negotiation process is time-consuming and complex. Further, strategic alliances
and collaborations are subject to numerous risks, which may include the following:
| 
| collaborators have significant discretion in determining the efforts and resources that they will apply to a collaboration; | |
| 
| collaborators may not pursue development and commercialization of our technologies and applications or
may elect not to continue or renew development or commercialization programs based on clinical trial results, changes in their strategic
focus due to the acquisition of competitive products, availability of funding, or other external factors, such as a business combination
that diverts resources or creates competing priorities; | |
| 
| collaborators could independently develop, or develop with third parties, products that compete directly or indirectly with our applications
and technologies; | |
| 
| collaborators may not properly maintain or defend our intellectual property rights or may use our intellectual
property or proprietary information in a way that gives rise to actual or threatened litigation that could jeopardize or invalidate our
intellectual property or proprietary information or expose us to potential liability; | |
| 
| disputes may arise between us and a collaborator that cause the delay or termination of the research, development or commercialization
of our technologies and applications, or that result in costly litigation or arbitration that diverts management attention and resources; | |
| 
| collaborations may be terminated and, if terminated, may result in a need for additional capital to pursue further development or
commercialization of the applicable applications or technologies; and | |
| 
| collaborators may own or co-own intellectual property covering our products that results from our collaborating with them, and in
such cases, we would not have the exclusive right to commercialize such intellectual property. | |
As a result, if we enter into collaboration agreements
and strategic partnerships or license our applications or technologies, we may not be able to realize the benefit of such transactions
if we are unable to successfully integrate them with our existing operations and company culture, which could delay our timelines or otherwise
adversely affect our business. We also cannot be certain that, following a strategic transaction or license, we will achieve the revenue
or specific net income that justifies such transaction. Any delays in entering into new strategic partnership agreements related to our
applications could delay the development and commercialization of our technologies and applications in certain geographies or for certain
applications, which would harm our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
17
**We have limited resources and depend on
third parties to design and manufacture, and seek regulatory approval of, our TAEUS applications. If any third party fails to successfully
design, manufacture or obtain regulatory approval of TAEUS applications, our business will be materially harmed.**
We do not currently have, nor do we plan to acquire,
the infrastructure or capability to design or manufacture our TAEUS applications. To support our design and manufacturing efforts, we
have contracted StarFish Product Engineering, Inc., a medical device contract manufacturing company, rather than design or manufacture
our TAEUS applications ourselves. We have limited control over the efforts and resources that these and any other third-party OEMs will
devote to developing and manufacturing our TAEUS applications and their capabilities to serve our needs, including quality control, quality
assurance and qualified personnel. In addition, for any future applications of our TAEUS technology we currently expect to depend on OEMs
to acquire CE marks for the device or devices that they develop and manufacture which are necessary to permit marketing of those devices
in the European Union followed by corresponding FDA approval.
An OEM may not be able to successfully design
and manufacture the products it develops based on our TAEUS technology, may not devote sufficient time and resources to support these
efforts or may fail in gaining the required regulatory approvals of our TAEUS applications. The failure by an OEM to perform in accordance
with our expectations would substantially harm the value of our TAEUS technology, brand and business.
**We will need to develop marketing and distribution
capabilities both internally and through our relationships with third parties in order to sell any of our TAEUS products receiving regulatory
approval. If we experience problems in developing these capabilities, our ability to sell our products could be limited.**
We have limited experience selling our products
and will need to develop marketing, sales and distribution capabilities in order to sell our TAEUS applications that receive the necessary
regulatory approval. We have limited experience managing a sales force and customer support operations and may be unable to attract, retain
and manage the collaborative manufacturing and distribution arrangements or the specialized workforce necessary to successfully commercialize
our products. In addition, our sales and marketing organization must effectively explain the uses and benefits of our products as compared
to alternatives in order to promote market acceptance and demand for our products. Although we have begun to hire a small internal sales
and marketing team to engage and support channel partners and clinical customers, further developing these functions will be time-consuming
and expensive and our efforts may not be successful.
We intend to partner with others to assist us
with some or all of these functions. However, we may be unable to find appropriate third parties with which to enter into these arrangements
and any such third parties may not perform as expected.
Furthermore, third-party distributors that are
in the business of selling other medical products may not devote a sufficient level of resources and support required to generate awareness
of our TAEUS applications and grow or maintain product sales. If these distributors are unwilling or unable to market and sell our products,
or if they do not perform to our expectations, we could experience delayed or reduced market acceptance and sales of our products. In
addition, disagreements with our distributors or non-performance by these third parties could lead to costly and time-consuming litigation
or arbitration and disrupt distribution channels for a period of time and require us to re-establish a distribution channel.
**If we are unable to manage the growth of our business, our future
revenues and operating results may be harmed.**
Because of our small size, growth in accordance
with our business plan, if achieved, will place a significant strain on our financial, technical, operational and management resources.
As we expand our activities, there will be additional demands on these resources. The failure to continually upgrade our technical, administrative,
operating and financial control systems or the occurrence of unexpected expansion difficulties, including issues relating to our research
and development activities and retention of experienced scientists, managers and technicians, could have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to timely execute our business plan. If we are unable to implement
these actions in a timely manner, our results may be adversely affected.
**Competition in the medical imaging market is intense and we may
be unable to successfully compete.**
In general, competition in the medical imaging
market is very significant and characterized by extensive research and development and rapid technological change. Competitors in this
market include very large companies with significantly greater resources than we have. To successfully compete in this market, we will
need to develop TAEUS applications that offer significant advantages over alternative imaging products and procedures for such applications.
18
While
we believe the technology behind our TAEUS platform is unique in the industry, developments by other medical imaging companies of new
or improved products, processes or technologies may make our products or proposed products obsolete or less competitive. Alternative
medical imaging devices may be more accepted or cost-effective than our products. Competition from these companies for employees with
experience in the medical imaging industry could result in higher turnover of our employees. If we are unable to respond to these competitive
pressures, we could experience delayed or reduced market acceptance of our products, higher expenses and lower revenue. If we are unable
to compete effectively with current or new entrants to these markets, we will be unable to generate sufficient revenue to maintain our
business.
Our competitors include producers of CT and MRI
systems that include multinational corporations such as Royal Philips, Siemens AG and Fujifilm Corporation, many of whom also manufacture
and sell ultrasound equipment. In the MASLD diagnosis market we will compete with makers of surgical biopsy tools, such as Cook Medical
and Sterylab S.r.l. In the thermal ablation market, we will compete with manufacturers of surgical temperature probes, such as Medtronic
plc and St. Jude Medical, Inc. These competitors and other potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and other
resources, such as larger R&D staff, more robust manufacturing capabilities and more experienced marketing and manufacturing organizations.
These competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing on an exclusive basis, products that are more effective or less costly
than TAEUS applications that we may develop, or achieve earlier patent protection, regulatory approval, product commercialization and
market penetration than us. Additionally, technologies developed by our competitors may render our potential product candidates uneconomical
or obsolete, and we may not be successful in marketing our product candidates against those of our competitors.
**The medical device market is characterized
by rapid innovation. To compete effectively, the Company may need to develop and/or acquire new products, seek regulatory clearance, market
them successfully, and identify new markets for the Companys technology.**
The medical device industry is subject to continuous
technological development and product innovation. If the Company does not continue to innovate and develop new products and applications,
the Companys competitive position may deteriorate as other companies successfully design and commercialize new products and applications
or enhancements to the Companys current products.
To successfully expand the Companys product offerings, the Company
may need to, among other things:
| 
| develop or otherwise acquire new products that either add to or significantly improve the Companys current product offerings; | |
| 
| obtain regulatory clearance for these new products; | |
| 
| convince the Companys existing and prospective customers that the Companys product offerings are an attractive revenue-generating
addition to their practice; | |
| 
| sell the Companys product offerings to a broad customer base; | |
| 
| identify new markets and alternative applications for the Companys technology; | |
| 
| protect the Companys existing and future products with defensible intellectual property; and | |
| 
| satisfy and maintain all regulatory requirements for commercialization. | |
**Changes in the healthcare industry could
result in a reduction in the size of the market for our products or may require us to decrease the selling price for our products, either
of which could have a negative impact on our financial performance.**
Trends toward managed care, healthcare cost containment,
and other changes in government and private sector initiatives in Europe and the United States are placing increased emphasis on lowering
the cost of medical services, which could adversely affect the demand for or the prices of our products. For example:
| 
| major third-party payors of hospital and non-hospital-based healthcare services could revise their payment methodologies and impose
stricter standards for reimbursement of imaging procedures charges and/or a lower or more bundled reimbursement; | |
| 
| there has been a consolidation among healthcare facilities and purchasers of medical devices who prefer to limit the number of suppliers
from whom they purchase medical products, and these entities may decide to stop purchasing our products or demand discounts on our prices;
and | |
| 
| there are proposed and existing laws and regulations in international and domestic markets regulating pricing and profitability of
companies in the healthcare industry. | |
19
These trends could lead to pressure to reduce
prices for our products and could cause a decrease in the demand for our products in any given market that could adversely affect our
revenue and profitability, which could harm our business.
**We intend to market our approved TAEUS applications
globally, and currently market our TAEUS liver probe in the EU, and are therefore subject to the risks of doing business outside of the
United States.**
Because we intend to market our approved TAEUS
applications globally and currently market our TAEUS liver probe in the EU, our business is subject to risks associated with doing business
globally. Accordingly, our business and financial results in the future could be adversely affected due to a variety of factors, including:
| 
| changes in a specific countrys or regions political and cultural climate or economic condition; | |
| 
| local outbreaks of sickness or disease; | |
| 
| war or terrorist attack, including cyberterrorism; | |
| 
| | | |
| 
| unexpected changes in laws and regulatory requirements in local jurisdictions; | |
| 
| difficulty of effective enforcement of contractual provisions in local jurisdictions; | |
| 
| inadequate intellectual property protection in certain countries; | |
| 
| trade-protection measures, import or export licensing requirements such as Export Administration Regulations promulgated by the United
States Department of Commerce and fines, penalties or suspension or revocation of export privileges; | |
| 
| effects of applicable local tax structures and potentially adverse tax consequences; and | |
| 
| significant adverse changes in currency exchange rates. | |
**There is no assurance that, if approved, the Companys
TAEUS applications will be widely adopted by customers or their patients.**
Market acceptance of our TAEUS applications will
be affected by a variety of factors, including but not limited to usability, performance, reliability and customer preference. It is possible
that demand for this device will not be as strong as anticipated. The Company may be unable to establish and manage a sufficient or effective
sales force in a timely or cost-effective manner, and any sales force the Company does establish may not be capable of generating demand
for our TAEUS applications, therefore hindering the Companys ability to generate revenues and achieve or sustain profitability.
The Company can offer no assurance that the sales model for our TAEUS applications will be well-received by customers or lead to sustainable
demand.
**If we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel, we
may not be able to successfully manage our business and achieve our objectives.**
To execute our growth plan, we must attract and
retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for skilled personnel is intense, especially for engineers with high levels of experience
in designing and developing medical devices. In addition, we will need to identify and hire sales executives and competition for commercial
and marketing talent is significant. We may experience difficulty in hiring and retaining employees with appropriate qualifications. Many
of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we have. In addition, we invest significant
time and expense in training our employees, which increases their value to competitors who may seek to recruit them. If we fail to attract
new personnel or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our business and future growth prospects would be harmed.
20
**Our employees, independent contractors,
consultants, commercial partners and vendors may engage in misconduct or other improper activities, including noncompliance with regulatory
standards and requirements.**
We are exposed to the risk of fraud, misconduct
or other illegal activity by our employees, independent contractors, consultants, commercial partners and vendors. Misconduct by these
parties could include intentional, reckless and negligent conduct that fails to: comply with the FD&C Act and similar laws of other
countries, or the rules and regulations of the FDA and other similar foreign regulatory bodies; provide true, complete and accurate information
to the FDA and other similar foreign regulatory bodies; comply with manufacturing standards we establish; comply with healthcare fraud
and abuse laws in the United States and similar foreign fraudulent misconduct laws; or report financial information or data accurately
or to disclose unauthorized activities to us. For any products for which we obtain regulatory approval and begin commercializing in Europe
or the United States, respectively, our potential exposure under such laws will increase significantly, and our costs associated with
compliance with such laws are also likely to increase. In particular, the promotion, sales and marketing of healthcare items and services,
as well as certain business arrangements in the healthcare industry, are subject to extensive laws designed to prevent fraud, kickbacks,
self-dealing and other abusive practices. It is not always possible to identify and deter misconduct by employees and other parties, and
the precautions we take to detect and prevent this activity may not be effective in controlling unknown or unmanaged risks or losses or
in protecting us from governmental investigations or other actions or lawsuits stemming from a failure to comply with these laws or regulations.
If any such actions are instituted against us, and we are not successful in defending ourselves or asserting our rights, those actions
could have a significant impact on our business, including the imposition of significant fines or other sanctions.
Misdiagnosis, warranty and other claims, as well
as product field actions and regulatory proceedings, initiated against us could increase our costs, delay or reduce our sales and damage
our reputation, adversely affecting our financial condition.
Our business exposes us to the risk of
malpractice, warranty or product liability claims inherent in the sale and support of medical device products, including those based
on claims that the use or failure of one of our products resulted in a misdiagnosis or harm to a patient. Although to date we have
not been involved in any medical malpractice or product liability litigation, we may incur significant liability if such litigation
were to occur. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability or related claims, we may incur substantial
liabilities or be required to limit the distribution of our products. Even a successful defense would require significant financial
and management resources. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:
| 
| decreased demand for our products; | |
| 
| injury to our reputation and negative media attention; | |
| 
| initiation of investigations by regulators and adverse impacts to our ability to obtain regulatory approvals; | |
| 
| costs to defend the related litigation; | |
| 
| a diversion of managements time and our resources; | |
| 
| substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients; | |
| 
| product recalls, withdrawals or labeling, marketing or promotional restrictions; | |
| 
| loss of revenue; | |
| 
| exhaustion of any available insurance and our capital resources; | |
| 
| the inability to commercialize a product at all or for particular applications; and | |
| 
| a decline in the price of our securities. | |
21
Although we currently maintain liability insurance
in amounts that we believe are commercially reasonable, any liability we incur may exceed our insurance coverage. Our insurance policies
may also have various exclusions, and we may be subject to a claim for which we have no coverage. Liability insurance is expensive and
may cease to be available on acceptable terms, if at all. A malpractice, warranty, product liability or other claim or product field action
not covered by our insurance or exceeding our coverage could significantly impair our financial condition. In addition, a product field
action or a liability claim against us could significantly harm our reputation and make it more difficult to obtain the funding and commercial
relationships necessary to maintain our business.
**Our internal computer systems, or those used by third-party manufacturers
or other contractors or consultants, may fail or suffer security breaches.**
Despite the implementation of security measures,
our internal computer systems and those of our future manufacturers and other contractors and consultants are vulnerable to damage from
computer viruses and unauthorized access. Although to our knowledge we have not experienced any such material system failure or security
breach to date, if such an event were to occur and cause interruptions in our operations, it could result in a material disruption of
our research and development programs and our business operations. To the extent that any disruption or security breach were to result
in a loss of, or damage to, our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could
incur liability and the further development and commercialization of our products could be delayed.
**Public health crises can adversely impact
our business, including our pre-sales activities, clinical trials and ability to obtain regulatory approvals.**
Public health crises such as pandemics or similar
outbreaks could adversely impact our business. For instance, the COVID-19 pandemic impacted our clinical trial activities by delaying
patient enrollment and visits due to the prioritization of hospital resources toward the COVID-19 outbreak, travel restrictions, and the
inability to access sites for initiation and monitoring. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic had an effect on the business at the FDA and
other health authorities by causing them to reallocate resources to addressing the pandemic, which resulted in delays of reviews and approvals
of submissions such as that for our NAFLD TAEUS application. The level and nature of the disruption caused by COVID-19 and any other pandemic
is unpredictable, may be cyclical and long-lasting and vary from location to location.
**Risks Related to Intellectual Property and Other Legal Matters**
**If we are unable to protect our intellectual
property, which entails significant expense and resources, then our financial condition, results of operations and the value of our technology
and products could be adversely affected.**
Much of our value arises from our proprietary
technology and intellectual property for the design, manufacture and use of medical imaging systems, including development of our TAEUS
applications. We rely on patent, copyright, trade secret and trademark laws to protect our proprietary technology and limit the ability
of others to compete with us using the same or similar technology. Third parties may infringe or misappropriate our intellectual property,
which could harm our business. Additionally, any patents issued to us may be challenged by third parties as being invalid, or third parties
may independently develop similar or competing technology that avoids our patents. Should such challenges be successful, competitors might
be able to market products and use manufacturing processes that are substantially similar to ours. Consequently, we may be unable to prevent
our proprietary technology from being exploited abroad, which could affect our ability to expand to international markets or require costly
efforts to protect our technology. Our failure to secure, protect and enforce our intellectual property rights could substantially harm
the value of our TAEUS platform, brand and business. See the section of this Annual Report titled Intellectual Property
under Item 1. Business for further information on our intellectual property portfolio.
Expenses related to a patent portfolio
include periodic maintenance fees, renewal fees, annuity fees, various other governmental fees on patents and/or applications due in
several stages over the lifetime of patents and/or applications, as well as the cost associated with complying with numerous
procedural provisions during the patent application process. We may or may not choose to pursue or maintain protection for
particular inventions. In addition, there are situations in which a failure to make certain payments or noncompliance with certain
requirements in the patent process can result in abandonment or lapse of a patent or patent application, resulting in partial or
complete loss of patent rights in the relevant jurisdiction.
**Policing unauthorized use of our proprietary
rights can be difficult, expensive and time-consuming, and we might be unable to determine the extent of this unauthorized use.**
Policing unauthorized use of our intellectual
property is difficult, costly and time-intensive. We may fail to stop or prevent misappropriation of our technology, particularly in countries
where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Proceedings to enforce our
patent and other intellectual property rights in non-U.S. jurisdictions could result in substantial costs and divert our efforts and attention
from other aspects of our business. If we cannot prevent other companies from using our proprietary technology or if our patents are found
invalid or otherwise unenforceable, we may be unable to compete effectively against other manufacturers of ultrasound systems, which could
decrease our market share. In addition, the breach of a patent licensing agreement by us may result in termination of a patent license.
22
We may not be able to prevent the unauthorized
disclosure or use of our technical knowledge or other trade secrets by consultants, vendors or former or current employees, despite the
existence generally of confidentiality agreements and other contractual restrictions. Monitoring unauthorized use and disclosure of our
intellectual property is difficult, and we do not know whether the steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property will be adequate.
**If we are unable to protect the confidentiality
of our proprietary information and know-how, the value of our technology and products could be adversely affected.**
In addition to our patent activities, we rely
upon, among other things, unpatented proprietary technology, processes, trade secrets and know-how. Any involuntary disclosure to or misappropriation
by third parties of our confidential or proprietary information could enable competitors to duplicate or surpass our technological achievements,
potentially eroding our competitive position in our market. We seek to protect confidential or proprietary information in part by confidentiality
agreements with our employees, consultants and third parties. While we require all of our employees, consultants, advisors and any third
parties who have access to our proprietary know-how, information and technology to enter into confidentiality agreements, we cannot be
certain that this know-how, information and technology will not be disclosed or that competitors will not otherwise gain access to our
trade secrets or independently develop substantially equivalent information and techniques. These agreements may be terminated or breached,
and we may not have adequate remedies for any such termination or breach. Furthermore, these agreements may not provide meaningful protection
for our trade secrets and know-how in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure. To the extent that any of our staff was previously
employed by other pharmaceutical, medical technology or biotechnology companies, those employers may allege violations of trade secrets
and other similar claims in relation to their former employees therapeutic development activities for us.
**We may in the future be a party to intellectual
property litigation or administrative proceedings that could be costly and could interfere with our ability to sell our TAEUS applications.**
The medical device industry has been characterized
by extensive litigation regarding patents, trademarks, trade secrets, and other intellectual property rights, and companies in the industry
have used intellectual property litigation to gain a competitive advantage. It is possible that U.S. and foreign patents and pending patent
applications or trademarks controlled by third parties may be alleged to cover our products, or that we may be accused of misappropriating
third parties trade secrets. Other medical imaging market participants, many of which have substantially greater resources and
have made substantial investments in patent portfolios, trade secrets, trademarks, and competing technologies, may have applied for or
obtained or may in the future apply for or obtain, patents or trademarks that will prevent, limit or otherwise interfere with our ability
to make, use, sell and/or export our products or to use product names. We may become a party to patent or trademark infringement or trade
secret claims and litigation as a result of these and other third-party intellectual property rights being asserted against us. The defense
and prosecution of these matters are both costly and time consuming. Vendors from whom we purchase hardware or software may not indemnify
us in the event that such hardware or software is accused of infringing a third partys patent or trademark or of misappropriating
a third partys trade secret.
Further, if such patents, trademarks, or trade
secrets are successfully asserted against us, this may harm our business and result in injunctions preventing us from selling our products,
license fees, damages and the payment of attorney fees and court costs. In addition, if we are found to willfully infringe third-party
patents or trademarks or to have misappropriated trade secrets, we could be required to pay treble damages in addition to other penalties.
Although patent, trademark, trade secret, and other intellectual property disputes in the medical device area have often been settled
through licensing or similar arrangements, costs associated with such arrangements may be substantial and could include ongoing royalties.
We may be unable to obtain necessary licenses on satisfactory terms, if at all. If we do not obtain necessary licenses, we may not be
able to redesign our TAEUS applications to avoid infringement.
Similarly, interference or derivation proceedings
provoked by third parties or brought by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) may be necessary to determine the priority
of inventions or other matters of inventorship with respect to our patents or patent applications. We may also become involved in other
proceedings, such as re-examination, inter partes review, or opposition proceedings, before the USPTO or other jurisdictional body relating
to our intellectual property rights or the intellectual property rights of others. Adverse determinations in a judicial or administrative
proceeding or failure to obtain necessary licenses could prevent us from manufacturing and selling our TAEUS applications or using product
names, which would have a significant adverse impact on our business.
23
Additionally, we may need to commence proceedings
against others to enforce our patents or trademarks, to protect our trade secrets or know-how, or to determine the enforceability, scope
and validity of the proprietary rights of others. These proceedings would result in substantial expense to us and significant diversion
of effort by our technical and management personnel. We may not prevail in any lawsuits that we initiate and the damages or other remedies
awarded, if any, may not be commercially meaningful. We may not be able to stop a competitor from marketing and selling products that
are the same or similar to our products or from using product names that are the same or similar to our product names, and our business
may be harmed as a result.
**Risks Related to Government Regulation**
**Failure to comply with laws and regulations could harm our business.**
Our business is or in the future may be subject
to regulation by various federal, state, local and foreign governmental agencies, including agencies responsible for monitoring and enforcing
employment and labor laws, workplace safety, environmental laws, consumer protection laws, anti-bribery laws, import/export controls,
securities laws and tax laws and regulations. In certain jurisdictions, these regulatory requirements may be more stringent than those
in the United States. Noncompliance with applicable regulations or requirements could subject us to investigations, sanctions, mandatory
recalls, enforcement actions, adverse publicity, disgorgement of profits, fines, damages, civil and criminal penalties or injunctions
and administrative actions. If any governmental sanctions, fines or penalties are imposed, or if we do not prevail in any possible civil
or criminal litigation, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed. In addition, responding to any action
will likely result in a significant diversion of managements attention and our resources and substantial costs. Enforcement actions
and sanctions could further harm our business, operating results and financial condition.
**Disruptions at the FDA, including due to
a reduction in the FDAs workforce and/or inadequate funding for the FDA, could prevent the FDA from performing normal functions
on which our business relies, which could negatively impact our business.**
The ability of the FDA to review and approve new
products or review other regulatory submissions can be affected by a variety of factors, including statutory, regulatory and policy changes,
inadequate government budget and funding levels or a reduction in the FDAs workforce and its ability to hire and retain key personnel.
Such changes and other disruptions at the FDA may increase the time to meet with the FDA and receive FDA feedback, review and/or approve
our submissions, conduct inspections, issue regulatory guidance, or take other actions that facilitate the development, approval and marketing
of regulated products, which would adversely affect our business. In addition, government proposals to reduce or eliminate budgetary deficits
may include reduced allocations to the FDA and other related government agencies. For example, the Trump Administration recently established
the Department of Government Efficiency, which implemented a federal government hiring freeze and announced certain additional efforts
to reduce federal government employee headcount and the size of the federal government. It is unclear how these executive actions or other
potential actions by the Trump Administration or other parts of the federal government will impact the FDA or other regulatory authorities
that oversee our business. These budgetary pressures may reduce the FDAs ability to perform its responsibilities. If a significant
reduction in the FDAs workforce occurs, the FDAs budget is significantly reduced or a prolonged government shutdown occurs,
it could significantly impact the ability of the FDA to timely review and process our De Novo submission or take other actions critical
to the development or marketing of our TAEUS applications, if approved, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
24
**If we fail to obtain and maintain necessary
regulatory clearances or approvals for our TAEUS applications, or if clearances or approvals for future applications and indications are
delayed or not issued, our commercial operations will be harmed.**
The medical devices that we manufacture and market
will be subject to regulation by numerous worldwide regulatory bodies, including the EMA, FDA and other comparable regulatory agencies.
Additionally, third parties designing, manufacturing or conducting human studies of our devices will be subject to local regulations,
such as those of Health Canada. These agencies and regulations require manufacturers of medical devices to comply with applicable laws
and regulations governing development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, marketing and distribution of medical devices. Devices are generally
subject to varying levels of regulatory control, based on the risk level of the device. Governmental regulations specific to medical devices
are wide-ranging and govern, among other things:
| 
| product design, development and manufacture; | 
|
| 
| laboratory, pre-clinical and clinical testing, labeling,
packaging storage and distribution; | 
|
| 
| premarketing clearance or approval; | 
|
| 
| record keeping; | 
|
| 
| product marketing, promotion and advertising, sales and distribution;
and | 
|
| 
| post-marketing surveillance, including reporting of deaths
or serious injuries and recalls and correction and removals. | 
|
The European Union has revised its regulatory
system for medical devices by implementing regulation (EU) 2017/745 on medical devices (Medical Device Regulation or MDR)
and regulation (EU) 2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic medical devices. The MDR became effective on May 26, 2021 (the Date of Application
or DoA). The changes to the regulatory system implemented by the MDR include stricter requirements for clinical evidence
and pre-market assessment of safety and performance, refined classifications to indicate risk levels, requirements for third party testing
by Notified Bodies, tightened and streamlined quality management system assessment procedures and additional requirements for the quality
management system, additional requirements for traceability of products and transparency as well a refined responsibility of economic
operators.
We are currently in a transitional period, where
our existing certified products will be required to continue to comply with applicable medical device directives (including the Medical
Devices Directive and the Active Implantable Medical Devices Directive) and with the Medical Device Regulation to obtain CE mark certification
in order to continue or commence marketing medical devices. The CE mark is applied following certification from a Notified Body or declaration
of conformity. It is an international symbol of adherence to quality assurance standards and compliance with applicable European Medical
Devices Directives or the MDR, as the case may be. CE mark approvals issued prior to May 26, 2021 for Class IIa medical devices will,
subject to certain conditions (including, among others, continued compliance with the MDR, no significant changes to design or intended
purpose, a quality management system, and engagement with a notified body to obtain conformity assessment), remain valid until December
31, 2028. In March 2020, we received CE mark approval for our TAEUS FLIP (Fatty Liver Imaging Probe) System. The CE marking indicates
that TAEUS complies with all applicable regulations in the EU, and other CE mark geographies, including the 27 EU member states. We believe
that future TAEUS applications will qualify for sale in the European Union as Class IIa medical devices. The MDR requires a clinical evaluation
for all medical devices and clinical trials for selected medical devices to be (re-)certified under the rules of the MDR. Depending on
the classification of our applications, future CE mark certifications or recertification of our applications may require additional clinical
evaluations or trials, as the case may be.
We are also required to comply with the regulations
of each other country where we commercialize products, such as the requirement that we obtain approval from the FDA before we can launch
new products in the United States.
Our MASLD TAEUS device is being reviewed under
a de novo process for a risk-based classification determination whether the device is of low to moderate risk and that it
can be appropriately regulated as a Class II device and thereby eligible for 510(k) clearance. While the 510(k) pathway for product marketing
typically requires only non-clinical testing proof of substantial equivalence to a lawfully marketed predicate device for a given indication,
the FDA has requested clinical studies to support a reclassification to a lower risk class via the de novo process. Even with the clinical
data we expect to provide with the de novo submission for our MASLD TAEUS device, the FDA may decide to reject the request to classify
the device into Class II. If that happens, the device will be regulated as a Class III device and we will be required to fulfill more
rigorous PMA requirements. Thus, although at this time we do not anticipate that we will be required to do so, it is possible that our
MASLD TAEUS device may require approval by means of a PMA.
We may not be able to obtain the necessary clearances or approvals
or may be unduly delayed in doing so, which could harm our business.
25
**Even if we obtain regulatory approval for our TAEUS device, our
product will remain subject to regulatory oversight.**
Even if we are granted regulatory clearances or
approvals, they may include significant limitations on the indicated uses for the product, which may limit the market for the product.
Therefore, even if we believe we have successfully developed our TAEUS technology, we may not be permitted to market TAEUS applications
in the United States if we do not obtain FDA regulatory clearance to market such applications. Delays in obtaining clearance or approval
could increase our costs and harm our revenues and growth.
In addition, we are required to timely file various
reports with the FDA, including reports required by the medical device reporting regulations that require us to report to certain regulatory
authorities if our devices may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause
or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur. If these reports are not filed timely, regulators may impose
sanctions and sales of our products may suffer, and we may be subject to product liability or regulatory enforcement actions, all of which
could harm our business.
If we initiate a correction or removal for one
of our devices to reduce a risk to health posed by the device, we would be required to submit a publicly available Correction and Removal
report to the FDA and, in many cases, similar reports to other regulatory agencies. This report could be classified by the FDA as a device
recall which could lead to increased scrutiny by the FDA, other international regulatory agencies and our customers regarding the quality
and safety of our devices. Furthermore, the submission of these reports has been and could be used by competitors against us in competitive
situations and cause customers to delay purchase decisions or cancel orders and would harm our reputation.
The FDA and the Federal Trade Commission (the
FTC) also regulate the advertising and promotion of our planned products to ensure that the claims we make are consistent
with our regulatory clearances, that there are adequate and reasonable data to substantiate the claims and that our promotional labeling
and advertising is neither false nor misleading in any respect. If the FDA or FTC determines that any of our advertising or promotional
claims are misleading, not substantiated or not permissible, we may be subject to enforcement actions, including warning letters, and
we may be required to revise our promotional claims and make other corrections or restitutions.
The FDA and state authorities have broad enforcement
powers. Our failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements could result in enforcement action by the FDA or state agencies,
which may include any of the following sanctions:
| 
| adverse publicity, warning letters, fines, injunctions, consent decrees and civil penalties; | |
| 
| repair, replacement, refunds, recall or seizure of our products; | |
| 
| operating restrictions, partial suspension or total shutdown of production; | |
| 
| refusing our De Novo submissions, requests for 510(k) clearance or premarket approval of new products, new intended uses or modifications
to existing products; | |
| 
| withdrawing 510(k) clearance or premarket approvals that have already been granted; and | |
| 
| criminal prosecution. | |
If any of these events were to occur, our business and financial condition
would be harmed.
26
**We have experienced and may in the future
experience delays and other difficulties in enrolling a sufficient number of patients in our clinical trials which could delay or prevent
the receipt of necessary regulatory approvals.**
We may not be able to initiate or complete as
planned any clinical trials if we are unable to identify and enroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in the clinical
trials required by the FDA or other regulatory authorities. We also may be unable to engage a sufficient number of clinical trial sites
to conduct our trials.
We may face challenges in enrolling patients to
participate in our clinical trials. Patients suffering from diseases within target indications may enroll in competing clinical trials,
which could negatively affect our ability to complete enrollment of our trials. Additionally, enrollment may be delayed by unforeseen
circumstances, as occurred with the COVID-19 pandemic. Enrollment challenges in clinical trials often result in increased development
costs for a product candidate, significant delays and potentially the abandonment of the clinical trial.
**We may have other delays in completing our clinical trials and
we may not complete them at all.**
Since we lack significant experience in completing
clinical trials and bringing a medical device through commercialization, we have hired outside consultants with such experience. Clinical
trials for our TAEUS device may be delayed or terminated as a result of many factors, including the following:
| 
| patients failing to complete clinical trials due to dissatisfaction with the procedure, side effects, or other reasons; | |
| 
| failure by regulators to authorize us to commence a clinical trial; | |
| 
| suspension or termination by regulators of clinical research for many reasons, including concerns about
patient safety, the failure of study sites and/or investigators in our clinical research program to comply with GCP requirements, or our
failure, or the failure of our contract manufacturers, to comply with current cGMP requirements; | |
| 
| delays or failure to obtain clinical supply for our products necessary to conduct clinical trials from contract manufacturers; | |
| 
| treatment candidates demonstrating a lack of efficacy during clinical trials; | |
| 
| inability to continue to fund clinical trials or to find a partner to fund the clinical trials. | |
Any delay or failure to complete clinical trials
could have a material adverse effect on our cost to develop and commercialize, and our ability to generate revenue from, our TAEUS device.
**Our TAEUS applications may require recertification
or new regulatory clearances or premarket approvals and we may be required to recall or cease marketing our TAEUS applications until such
recertification or clearances are obtained.**
Most countries outside of the United States require
that product approvals be recertified on a regular basis, generally every five years. The recertification process requires that we evaluate
any device changes and any new regulations or standards relevant to the device and, where needed, conduct appropriate testing to document
continued compliance. Where recertification applications are required, they must be approved in order to continue selling our products
in those countries.
In the United States, material modifications to
the intended use or technological characteristics of our TAEUS applications will require new 510(k) clearances or premarket approvals
or require us to recall or cease marketing the modified devices until these clearances or approvals are obtained. Based on FDA published
guidelines, the FDA requires device manufacturers to initially make and document a determination of whether or not a modification requires
a new approval, supplement or clearance; however, the FDA can review a manufacturers decision. Any modification to an FDA-cleared
device that would significantly affect its safety or efficacy or that would constitute a major change in its intended use would require
a new 510(k) clearance or possibly a premarket approval.
27
We may not be able to obtain recertification or
additional 510(k) clearances or premarket approvals for our applications or for modifications to, or additional indications for, our TAEUS
technology in a timely fashion, or at all. Delays in obtaining required future governmental approvals would harm our ability to introduce
new or enhanced products in a timely manner, which in turn would harm our future growth. If foreign regulatory authorities or the FDA
require additional approvals, we may be required to recall and to stop selling or marketing our TAEUS applications, which could harm our
operating results and require us to redesign our applications. In these circumstances, we may be subject to significant enforcement actions.
**If any OEMs fail to comply with the FDAs
Quality System Regulations or other regulatory bodies equivalent regulations, manufacturing operations could be delayed or shut
down and the development of our TAEUS platform could suffer.**
The manufacturing processes of OEMs are required
to comply with the FDAs Quality System Regulations and other regulatory bodies equivalent regulations, which cover the procedures
and documentation of the design, testing, production, control, quality assurance, labeling, packaging, storage and shipping of our TAEUS
applications. They may also be subject to similar state requirements and licenses and engage in extensive recordkeeping and reporting
and make available their manufacturing facilities and records for periodic unannounced inspections by governmental agencies, including
the FDA, state authorities and comparable agencies in other countries. If any OEM fails such an inspection, our operations could be disrupted
and our manufacturing interrupted. Failure to take adequate corrective action in response to an adverse inspection could result in, among
other things, a shut-down of our manufacturing operations, significant fines, suspension of marketing clearances and approvals, seizures
or recalls of our products, operating restrictions and criminal prosecutions, any of which would cause our business to suffer. Furthermore,
these OEMs may be engaged with other companies to supply and/or manufacture materials or products for such companies, which would expose
our OEMs to regulatory risks for the production of such materials and products. As a result, failure to meet the regulatory requirements
for the production of those materials and products may also affect the regulatory clearance of a third-party manufacturers facility.
If the FDA or a foreign regulatory agency does not approve these facilities for the manufacture of our products, or if it withdraws its
approval in the future, we may need to find alternative manufacturing facilities, which would impede or delay our ability to develop,
obtain regulatory approval for or market our products, if approved. Additionally, our key component suppliers may not currently be or
may not continue to be in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements, which may result in manufacturing delays for our product
and cause our results of operations to suffer.
**Our TAEUS applications may in the future be subject to product
recalls that could harm our reputation.**
Governmental authorities in Europe and the United
States have the authority to require the recall of commercialized products in the event of material regulatory deficiencies or defects
in design or manufacture. A government-mandated or voluntary recall by us could occur as a result of component failures, manufacturing
errors or design or labeling defects. Recalls of our TAEUS applications would divert managerial attention, be expensive, harm our reputation
with customers and harm our financial condition and results of operations. A recall announcement would negatively affect the price of
our securities.
**Healthcare reform measures could hinder or prevent our planned
products commercial success.**
There have been, and we expect there will continue
to be, a number of legislative and regulatory changes to the healthcare system in ways that could harm our future revenues and profitability
and the future revenues and profitability of our potential customers. In the EU, the Medical Devices Directive is being replaced with
the more expansive MDR, which may increase the costs of obtaining and maintaining required regulatory approvals for our products. We cannot
predict what other healthcare initiatives, if any, will be implemented by EU member countries, or the effect any future legislation or
regulation will have on us.
In the United States, federal and state lawmakers
regularly propose and, at times, enact legislation that would result in significant changes to the healthcare system, some of which are
intended to contain or reduce the costs of medical products and services. For example, one of the most significant healthcare reform measures
in decades, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act
(the Affordable Care Act), was enacted in 2010. The Affordable Care Act contains a number of provisions, including those
governing enrollment in federal healthcare programs, reimbursement changes and fraud and abuse measures, all of which will impact existing
government healthcare programs and will result in the development of new programs.
28
It remains unclear whether changes will be made
to the Affordable Care Act, or whether it will be repealed or materially modified. For example, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 modified
certain aspects of the Affordable Care Act and the Trump Administration and U.S. Congress may take further action regarding the Affordable
Care Act. Therefore, we cannot assure you that the Affordable Care Act, as currently enacted or as may be further amended or discontinued
in the future, will not harm our business and financial results and we cannot predict how future federal or state legislative or administrative
changes relating to healthcare reform will affect our business.
There likely will continue to be legislative and
regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the
initiatives that may be adopted in the future or their full impact. The continuing efforts of the government, insurance companies, managed
care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs of healthcare may harm:
| 
| our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for our products; | |
| 
| out ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability; and | |
| 
| the availability of capital. | |
**If we fail to comply with healthcare regulations,
we could face substantial penalties and our business, operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.**
Even though we do not and will not control referrals
of healthcare services or bill directly to Medicare, Medicaid or other third party payors, certain federal and state healthcare laws and
regulations pertaining to fraud and abuse and patients rights are and will be applicable to our business. We could be subject to
healthcare fraud and abuse and patient privacy regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct our business.
Other jurisdictions such as the European Union have similar laws. The regulations that will affect how we operate include:
| 
| the federal healthcare program Anti-Kickback Statute, which prohibits, among other things, any person
from knowingly and willfully offering, soliciting, receiving or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to
induce either the referral of an individual for, or the purchase, order or recommendation of, any good or service for which payment may
be made under federal healthcare programs, such as the Medicare and Medicaid programs; | |
| 
| the federal False Claims Act, which prohibits, among other things, individuals or entities from knowingly presenting, or causing to
be presented, false claims, or knowingly using false statements, to obtain payment from the federal government; | |
| 
| federal criminal laws that prohibit executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program or making false statements relating
to healthcare matters; | |
| 
| the federal Physician Payment Sunshine Act, created under the Affordable Care Act, and its implementing
regulations, which require manufacturers of drugs, medical devices, biologicals and medical supplies for which payment is available under
Medicare, Medicaid, or the Childrens Health Insurance Program to report annually to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,
or HHS, information related to payments or other transfers of value made to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership and
investment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members; | |
29
| 
| the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), as amended by the
Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, which governs the conduct of certain electronic healthcare transactions
and protects the security and privacy of protected health information; and | |
| 
| state law equivalents of each of the above federal laws, such as anti-kickback and false claims laws which may apply to items or services
reimbursed by any third-party payor, including commercial insurers. | |
The Affordable Care Act, among other things, amends
the intent requirement of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute and criminal healthcare fraud statutes. A person or entity no longer needs
to have actual knowledge of this statute or specific intent to violate it. In addition, the Affordable Care Act provides that the government
may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false
or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act.
Efforts to ensure that our business arrangements
will comply with applicable healthcare laws may involve substantial costs. It is possible that governmental and enforcement authorities
will conclude that our business practices do not comply with current or future statutes, regulations or case law interpreting applicable
fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws and regulations. If any such actions are instituted against us, and we are not successful in
defending ourselves or asserting our rights, those actions could have a significant impact on our business, including the imposition of
civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, disgorgement, monetary fines, possible exclusion from participation in Medicare,
Medicaid and other federal and similar foreign healthcare programs, contractual damages, reputational harm, diminished profits and future
earnings, and curtailment of our operations, any of which could harm our ability to operate our business and our results of operations.
**Compliance with environmental laws and regulations
could be expensive. Failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations could subject us to significant liability.**
Our research and development and manufacturing
operations may involve the use of hazardous substances and are subject to a variety of federal, state, local and foreign environmental
laws and regulations relating to the storage, use, discharge, disposal, remediation of, and human exposure to, hazardous substances and
the sale, labeling, collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of products containing hazardous substances. In addition, our research
and development and manufacturing operations produce biological waste materials, such as human and animal tissue, and waste solvents,
such as isopropyl alcohol. These operations are permitted by regulatory authorities, and the resultant waste materials are disposed of
in material compliance with environmental laws and regulations. Liability under environmental laws and regulations can be joint and several
and without regard to fault or negligence. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations may be expensive and non-compliance could
result in substantial liabilities, fines and penalties, personal injury and third part property damage claims and substantial investigation
and remediation costs. Environmental laws and regulations could become more stringent over time, imposing greater compliance costs and
increasing risks and penalties associated with violations. We cannot assure you that violations of these laws and regulations will not
occur in the future or have not occurred in the past as a result of human error, accidents, equipment failure or other causes. The expense
associated with environmental regulation and remediation could harm our financial condition and operating results.

**Risks Related to Owning Our Securities, Our Financial Results and
Our Need for Financing**
**Our stock is subject to minimum requirements
to remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, including a minimum bid price requirement and stockholders equity requirement, and
may be delisted if it does not maintain compliance with those requirements.**
****
On May 27, 2025, the Company received a notification
letter from the Staff notifying the Company that its stockholders equity had fallen below the $2,500,000 required minimum for continued
listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the Minimum Stockholders Equity Requirement). The notification
letter stated that the Company had until July 11, 2025 to provide Nasdaq with a specific plan to achieve and sustain compliance. The Company
submitted its plan to regain compliance on July 11, 2025 and subsequently provided the Staff with additional materials. On October 31,
2025, the Company received written notice that, based on review of the compliance plan and additional materials, the Staff had granted
the Company an extension to November 24, 2025 to regain compliance with the Minimum Stockholders Equity Requirement.
As a result of the Companys closing of
a private placement offering for gross proceeds of approximately $4.9 million on October 15, 2025, the Company regained compliance with
Minimum Stockholders Equity Requirement, subject to Nasdaqs continued monitoring of the Companys ongoing compliance
with the Minimum Stockholders Equity Requirement. Under such monitoring, if at the time of the Companys periodic report
following having regained compliance, the Company does not evidence continued compliance, it may be subject to delisting. As disclosed
in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our stockholders equity as of December 31, 2025 was below Minimum Stockholders Equity
Requirement. Accordingly, we expect the Staff will issue a Delist Determination Letter and, once issued, we intend to request
a hearing before a Nasdaq hearing panel regarding our continued listing with respect to the Minimum Stockholders Equity Requirement.There
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Stockholders Equity Requirement.
If our common stock ceases to be listed for trading
on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we would expect that our common stock would be traded on one of the three tiered marketplaces of the OTC
Markets Group. If Nasdaq were to delist our common stock, it would be more difficult for our stockholders to dispose of our common stock
and more difficult to obtain accurate price quotations on our common stock. Our ability to issue additional securities for financing or
other purposes, or otherwise to arrange for any financing we may need in the future, may also be materially and adversely affected if
our common stock or warrants are not listed on a national securities exchange.
**Nasdaq has proposed enhanced listing standards,
which could adversely affect our ability to maintain our Nasdaq listing and access to capital markets.**
On January 13, 2026, Nasdaq filed a rule proposal
with the SEC to adopt a new continued listing requirement that would require all companies listed on Nasdaq to maintain a minimum market
value of listed securities of $5.0 million. Under the proposed rule, if a companys market value of listed securities fallsbelowthis
threshold for 30 consecutive trading days, Nasdaq may immediately suspend trading and initiatedelistingproceedings without
affording the company a compliance cure period. This proposed rule, if adopted, would be in addition to Nasdaqs existing continued
listing requirements. If the proposed rule is adopted and the market value of our common stock were to be below the proposed $5.0 million
threshold or we otherwise fail to satisfy Nasdaqs continued listing standards, we could face delisting proceedings on an accelerated
basis. The delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq could materially reduce the liquidity of our common stock and result in a corresponding
material reduction in the price of our common stock. In addition, delisting could harm our ability to raise capital through alternative
financing sources on terms acceptable to us, or at all, and may result in the potential loss of confidence by investors, employees and
fewer business development opportunities. The comment period for the proposed rule closed on February 19, 2026. The effective date of
the proposed rule is not known, if approved and adopted.

**Our quarterly and annual results may fluctuate
significantly, may not fully reflect the underlying performance of our business and may result in volatility in the price of our securities.**
Our operating results will be affected by numerous factors such as:
| 
| variations in the level of expenses related to our proposed products; | |
| 
| status of our product development efforts; | |
| 
| execution of collaborative, licensing or other arrangements, and the timing of payments received or made under those arrangements; | |
| 
| intellectual property prosecution and any infringement lawsuits to which we may become a party; | |
| 
| regulatory developments affecting our products or those of our competitors, including the timing and success of obtaining various
regulatory approvals for our products testing, production and marketing; | |
| 
| our ability to obtain and maintain FDA clearance and approval from foreign regulatory authorities for our products, which have not
yet been approved for marketing; | |
| 
| market acceptance of our TAEUS applications; | |
| 
| the availability of reimbursement for our TAEUS applications; | |
| 
| our ability to attract new customers and grow our business with existing customers; | |
| 
| the timing and success of new product and feature introductions by us or our competitors or any other change in the competitive dynamics
of our industry, including consolidation among competitors, customers or strategic partners; | |
| 
| the amount and timing of costs and expenses related to the maintenance and expansion of our business and operations; | |
| 
| changes in our pricing policies or those of our competitors; | |
| 
| general economic, industry and market conditions; | |
| 
| the hiring, training and retention of key employees, including our ability to expand our sales team; | |
| 
| litigation or other claims against us; | |
| 
| our ability to obtain additional financing; and | |
| 
| advances and trends in new technologies and industry standards. | |
Any or all of these factors could adversely affect
our cash position requiring us to raise additional capital which may be on unfavorable terms and result in substantial dilution. Additionally,
the risks surrounding our business, as well as the limited market for our common stock, have resulted, and will likely continue to result,
in volatility in the price of our common stock.
**Our stock price has fluctuated in the past,
has recently been volatile and may be volatile in the future for reasons unrelated to our operating performance or prospects, and as a
result, investors in our common stock could incur substantial losses.**
Our stock price has fluctuated in the past, has
recently been volatile and may be volatile in the future. The stock market in general and the market for healthcare companies in particular
have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. As a result of
this volatility, investors may experience losses on their investment in our common stock. Additionally, securities of certain companies
have experienced significant and extreme volatility in stock price due to a sudden increase in demand for stock resulting in aggregate
short positions in the stock exceeding the number of shares available for purchase, forcing investors with short exposure to pay a premium
to repurchase shares for delivery to share lenders. This is known as a short squeeze. These short squeezes have led to the
price per share of those companies to trade at a significantly inflated rate that is disconnected from the underlying value of the company.
Many investors who have purchased shares in those companies at an inflated rate face the risk of losing a significant portion of their
original investment as the price per share declines steadily as interest in those stocks abates. While we have no reason to believe our
shares would be the target of a short squeeze, there can be no assurance that they will not be in the future, and you may lose a significant
portion or all of your investment if you purchase our shares at a rate that is significantly disconnected from our underlying value.
32
**We may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive
and could divert management attention.**
In the past, companies that have experienced volatility
in the market price of their securities have been subject to an increased incidence of securities class action litigation. We may be the
target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our managements
attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business.
**There is a limited market for our common stock.**
Although our common stock is traded on the
Nasdaq Capital Market, the volume of trading has historically been limited. Our average daily trading volume of our shares from
January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025 was approximately 531,026 shares. Thinly-traded stock can be more volatile than stock trading
in a more active public market. While we have made efforts to increase trading in our stock, we cannot predict the extent to which
an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. Therefore, a holder of our common stock who wishes to
sell his or her shares may not be able to do so immediately or at an acceptable price.
**If securities or industry analysts do not
publish research reports about our business, or if they issue an adverse opinion about our business, the price of our securities and trading
volume could decline.**
The trading market for our securities is influenced
by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. If any of the securities or industry
analysts who cover us or may cover us in the future change their recommendation regarding our common stock adversely, or provide more
favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our common stock would likely decline. If any securities or industry
analyst who covers us or may cover us in the future were to cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could
lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the price or trading volume of our common stock to decline.
**If we are unable to implement and maintain
effective internal control over financial reporting, including by remediating current material weaknesses in our internal control over
financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, and the market price of
our securities may decrease and we may become subject to litigation or enforcement actions.**
As a public company, we are required to maintain
internal control over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in such internal controls. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 (the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) requires that we evaluate and determine the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting and provide a management report on our internal control over financial reporting.
Currently, we have material weaknesses in our
internal control over financial reporting and, as a result, we may not detect errors on a timely basis and our financial statements may
be materially misstated. Specifically, we have insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties
over financial transaction processing and reporting. We intend to improve our internal control over financial reporting; however, the
process is time-consuming, costly and complicated. We are constrained in the improvements we are able to make due to our limited resources.
Until our internal controls are improved our ability to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting will be limited.
Until such time as we are no longer a smaller
reporting company, our auditors will not be required to attest as to our internal control over financial reporting. If we continue to
identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, if we are unable to comply with the requirements of Section
404 in a timely manner, if we are unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective or, if required, if
our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to attest that our internal control over financial reporting is effective,
investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our common stock could
decrease. We could also become subject to stockholder or other third-party litigation as well as investigations by the stock exchange
on which our securities are listed, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) or other regulatory authorities, which
could require additional financial and management resources and could result in fines, trading suspensions or other remedies.
33
We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements
of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed
by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC. We believe that any disclosure controls and procedures
or internal controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that
the objectives of the control system are met.
These inherent limitations include the realities
that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls
can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by an unauthorized override of the controls.
Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in our control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
**We have not paid dividends in the past and have no plans to pay
dividends for the foreseeable future.**
We plan to reinvest all of our earnings, to the
extent we have earnings, in order to further develop our technology and potential products and to cover operating costs. We do not plan
to pay any cash dividends with respect to our securities in the foreseeable future. We cannot assure you that we will, at any time, generate
sufficient surplus cash that would be available for distribution to the holders of our common stock as a dividend.
**We incur significant costs as a result of
being a public company that reports to the SEC and our management is required to devote substantial time to meet compliance obligations.**
As a public company listed in the United States,
we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses relating to our compliance obligations. We are subject to reporting requirements
of the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and Nasdaq that impose significant
requirements on public companies, including requiring the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls
and corporate governance practices. In addition, there are significant corporate governance and executive compensation-related provisions
in the Dodd-Frank Act Wall Street Reform and Protection Act that contribute to our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities
more difficult, time-consuming or costly and also place undue strain on our personnel, systems and resources. Our management and other
personnel need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Furthermore, these rules and regulations may make
it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced
policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult
for us to attract and retain qualified people to serve on our board of directors, our board committees or as executive officers.
**Future sales and issuances of our common
stock or rights to purchase common stock, including pursuant to our equity incentive plan and our at-the-market equity offering program,
could result in dilution of the percentage ownership of our stockholders and could cause the price of our securities to fall.**
We expect that significant capital will be needed
in the future to continue our planned operations. To the extent we raise capital by issuing common stock, convertible securities or other
equity securities, our stockholders may experience substantial dilution, and new investors could gain rights superior to our existing
stockholders.
**Our charter documents and Delaware law may inhibit a takeover
that stockholders consider favorable.**
Certain provisions of our Fourth Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (our Certificate of Incorporation) and Amended and Restated Bylaws (our Bylaws)
and applicable provisions of Delaware law may delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in control or change
in our management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares, or transactions that
our stockholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests. The provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws:
| 
| authorize our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval and to designate
the rights, preferences and privileges of each class; if issued, such preferred stock would increase the number of outstanding shares
of our capital stock and could include terms that may deter an acquisition of us; | |
| 
| limit who may call stockholder meetings; | |
34
| 
| do not provide for cumulative voting rights; | |
| 
| provide that all vacancies in our board of directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office,
even if less than a quorum; | |
| 
| provide that stockholders must comply with advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates
for director; | |
| 
| provide that stockholders may only amend our Certificate of Incorporation upon a supermajority vote of stockholders; and | |
| 
| provide that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for certain legal claims. | |
In addition, section 203 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law limits our ability to engage in any business combination with a person who beneficially owns 15% or more of our outstanding
voting stock unless certain conditions are satisfied. This restriction lasts for a period of three years following any such persons
share acquisition. These provisions may have the effect of entrenching our management team and may deprive stockholders of the opportunity
to sell their shares to potential acquirers at a premium over prevailing prices. This potential inability to obtain a control premium
could reduce the price of our common stock.
**Risks Related to Our Digital Asset Treasury
Strategy**
**The emergence or growth of other digital
assets, including those with significant private or public sector backing, could have a negative impact on the price of cryptocurrencies
we hold and adversely affect our business.**
The emergence or growth of digital assets other
than cryptocurrencies we may hold could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. There are numerous alternative digital
assets and many entities, including consortia and financial institutions, are researching and investing resources into private or permissioned
blockchain platforms or digital assets. For example, some cryptocurrency networks utilize proof-of-work mining. Others use a proof-of-stake
mechanism for validating transactions that requires significantly less computing power than proof-of-work mining. If the mechanisms for
validating transactions in alternative digital assets are perceived as superior to the mechanisms used by the digital assets in which
we invest, those digital assets could gain market share.
Other alternative digital assets could include
stablecoins, which are designed to maintain a constant price because of, for instance, their issuers promise to hold
high-quality liquid assets (such as U.S. dollar deposits and short-term U.S. treasury securities) equal to the total value of stablecoins
in circulation. Stablecoins have grown rapidly as an alternative to other digital assets as a medium of exchange and store of value, particularly
on digital asset trading platforms.
Additionally, central banks in some countries
have started to introduce digital forms of legal tender. For example, Chinas CBDC project was made available to consumers in January
2022, and governments including the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Israel have been discussing the potential
creation of new CBDCs. Whether or not they incorporate blockchain or similar technology, CBDCs, as legal tender in the issuing jurisdiction,
could also compete with, or replace, other digital assets as a medium of exchange or store of value. As a result, the emergence or growth
of these or other digital assets could cause the market price of cryptocurrencies we hold to decrease, which could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
**The accounting treatment of cryptocurrency
holdings could have significant accounting impacts, including increasing the volatility of our results.**
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08,
which upon our adoption will require us to measure in-scope cryptocurrency assets at fair value in our statement of financial position,
and to recognize gains and losses from changes in the fair value of our cryptocurrency in net income each reporting period. ASU 2023-08
will also require us to provide certain interim and annual disclosures with respect to our cryptocurrency holdings. The standard is effective
for our interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings
as of the beginning of the annual reporting period in which we adopt the guidance. Due in particular to the volatility in the price of
cryptocurrencies, we expect the adoption of ASU 2023-08 to have a material impact on our financial results in future periods, increase
the volatility of our financial results, and affect the carrying value of our cryptocurrency on our balance sheet, and it could also have
adverse tax consequences, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and the market price of our common
stock. Additionally, as a result of ASU 2023-08 requiring a cumulative-effect adjustment to our opening balance of retained earnings as
of the beginning of the annual period in which we adopt the guidance and not permitting retrospective restatement of our historical financial
statements, our future results will not be comparable to results from periods prior to our adoption of the guidance.
35
The broader digital assets industry, including
the technology associated with digital assets, the rate of adoption and development of, and use cases for, digital assets, market perception
of digital assets, and the legal, regulatory, and accounting treatment of digital assets are constantly developing and changing, and there
may be additional risks in the future that are not possible to predict.
Changes in our ownership of cryptocurrency could
have accounting, regulatory and other impacts, as well. While we currently intend to primarily own cryptocurrency directly, we may investigate
other potential approaches to owning cryptocurrencies, including indirect ownership (for example, through ownership interests in a fund
that owns cryptocurrencies and deemed ownership via ownership of cryptocurrency derivative assets). If we were to own all or a portion
of our cryptocurrencies in a different manner, the accounting treatment for our cryptocurrencies, our ability to use our cryptocurrencies
as collateral for additional borrowings, and the regulatory requirements to which we are subject, may correspondingly change. For example,
the volatile nature of cryptocurrencies may force us to liquidate our holdings to use it as collateral, which could be negatively impacted
by any disruptions in the cryptocurrency market, and if liquidated, the value of the collateral would not reflect potential gains in market
value of our cryptocurrency.
**Our management relies upon the advice of
an asset manager through an asset management agreement to assist in building a narrowly focused investment strategy and the execution
of the Companys strategy and may not yield the desired return.**
We have engaged an asset manager to manage our
cryptocurrency holdings. Our management, Digital Asset Advisory Board and asset manager will have broad discretion in the management of
our digital asset treasury and their decisions on the execution of such strategy may not be successful.
**Cryptocurrency price volatility may materially
depress asset valuations, necessitating substantial cash reserves or liquidity buffers to maintain operational resilience. These risks
are compounded by the lack of comprehensive regulation governing cryptocurrency trading platforms, which face material exposure to fraud,
market manipulation, security breaches, and operational failures that could materially and adversely affect the value of our cryptocurrency
holdings.**
We may invest in more cryptocurrencies in the
future, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, primarily due to the
inherent price volatility of cryptocurrency and the impact of accounting standards. Cryptocurrencies can be highly susceptible to sharp
price swings, which can significantly impact our financial statements, especially under mark-to-market accounting. To mitigate these risks,
companies holding significant amounts of cryptocurrencies must maintain substantial capital reserves to absorb potential declines in asset
value without compromising their overall financial health. This heightened need for liquidity reflects the increased risk associated with
holding cryptocurrencies and underscores the importance of robust risk management strategies when navigating the uncertainties of the
digital asset market.
Digital asset trading platforms handling cryptocurrencies
and particularly small-cap cryptocurrencies are relatively new and often operate without the oversight typical of regulated securities
or commodities markets. Many platforms, particularly those based outside the United States, are subject to limited or inconsistent regulatory
standards and often do not provide transparent information about their ownership, management, or compliance practices. This lack of oversight
increases the risk of fraudulent activities such as artificial trading volume, wash trading, and market manipulationissues that
have been documented in unregulated cryptocurrency markets and could similarly affect cryptocurrency trading. Reports have indicated that
a significant portion of trading volume on unregulated digital asset trading platforms may be artificially inflated or non-economic in
nature.
Manipulative behavior on cryptocurrency exchanges
can distort market prices and lead to unexpected losses for investors. As a result, reduced market confidence in these platforms could
negatively impact the liquidity and value of cryptocurrencies. We may hold substantial amounts of cryptocurrencies and must be vigilant
about these risks, as trading activity that is not reflective of genuine market interest can lead to volatility and potential losses.
The operational integrity of digital asset trading
platforms is another critical risk factor. Many of these platforms may lack robust security measures, making them vulnerable to hacking,
fraud, and other operational problems. As we may hold large quantities of cryptocurrencies, we must consider the risk of security breaches,
which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
36
**Cryptocurrency holdings are less liquid
than our existing cash and cash equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and
cash equivalents.**
Historically, the crypto markets have been characterized
by significant volatility in price; limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets; relative anonymity;
a developing regulatory landscape; potential susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation; compliance and internal control failures
at exchanges; and various other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of market
instability, we may not be able to sell our cryptocurrency at favorable prices or at all. Further, cryptocurrency which we hold with our
custodians does not enjoy the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject
to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Additionally, pursuant to
the asset management agreement we intend to enter into with the asset manager, we are currently and may generally be unable to enter into
term loans or other capital raising transactions collateralized by our unencumbered cryptocurrency or otherwise generate funds using our
cryptocurrency holdings, including in particular during times of market instability or when the price of cryptocurrency has declined significantly.
If we are unable to sell our cryptocurrency, enter into additional capital raising transactions using cryptocurrency as collateral, or
otherwise generate funds using our cryptocurrency holdings, or if we are forced to sell our cryptocurrency at a significant loss, in order
to meet our working capital requirements, our business and financial condition could be negatively impacted.
**Cryptocurrencies do not pay interest or
dividends.**
Cryptocurrencies do not pay interest or other
returns and we can only generate cash from our cryptocurrency holdings if we sell our cryptocurrency or implement strategies to create
income streams or otherwise generate cash by using our cryptocurrency holdings. Even if we pursue any such strategies, we may be unable
to create income streams or otherwise generate cash from our cryptocurrency holdings, and any such strategies may subject us to additional
risks.
**If we or our third-party service providers
experience a security breach or cyberattack and unauthorized parties obtain access to our cryptocurrency, or if our private keys are lost
or destroyed, or other similar circumstances or events occur, we may lose some or all of our cryptocurrency and our financial condition
and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.**
Security breaches and cyberattacks are of particular
concern with respect to cryptocurrency. Blockchain-based cryptocurrencies and the entities that provide services to participants in the
cryptocurrency ecosystem have been, and may in the future be, subject to security breaches, cyberattacks, or other malicious activities.
For example, in October 2021, it was reported that hackers exploited a flaw in the account recovery process and stole from the accounts
of at least 6,000 customers of the Coinbase exchange, although the flaw was subsequently fixed and Coinbase reimbursed affected customers.
Similarly, in November 2022, hackers exploited weaknesses in the security architecture of the FTX Trading digital asset exchange and reportedly
stole over $400 million in digital assets from customers. A successful security breach or cyberattack could result in:
| 
| a partial or total loss of our cryptocurrency in a manner that may not be covered by insurance or the
liability provisions of the custody agreements with the custodians who hold our cryptocurrency; | |
| 
| harm to our reputation and brand; | |
| 
| improper disclosure of data and violations of applicable data privacy and other laws; or | |
| 
| significant regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, penalties, and other legal, regulatory, contractual
and financial exposure. | |
Further, any actual or perceived data security
breach or cybersecurity attack directed at other companies with digital assets or companies that operate digital asset networks, regardless
of whether we are directly impacted, could lead to a general loss of confidence in the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem or in the use
of the cryptocurrency network to conduct financial transactions, which could negatively impact us.
Attacks upon systems across a variety of industries,
including industries related to cryptocurrency, are increasing in frequency, persistence, and sophistication, and, in many cases, are
being conducted by sophisticated, well-funded and organized groups and individuals, including state actors. The techniques used to obtain
unauthorized, improper or illegal access to systems and information (including personal data and digital assets), disable or degrade services,
or sabotage systems are constantly evolving, may be difficult to detect quickly, and often are not recognized or detected until after
they have been launched against a target. These attacks may occur on our systems or those of our third-party service providers or partners.
We may experience breaches of our security measures due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors or vulnerabilities
or other irregularities. In particular, we expect that unauthorized parties will attempt to gain access to our systems and facilities,
as well as those of our partners and third-party service providers, through various means, such as hacking, social engineering, phishing
and fraud. Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial
espionage, and insiders. In addition, certain types of attacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, certain
threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable, sometimes for extended periods of time, or until launched against a target and
we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures. Further, there has been an increase in such activities due to the increase
in work-from-home arrangements. The risk of cyberattacks could also be increased by cyberwarfare in connection with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine,
Israel-Hamas and Israel-Iran conflicts, or other future conflicts, including potential proliferation of malware into systems unrelated
to such conflicts. Any future breach of our operations or those of others in the cryptocurrency industry, including third-party services
on which we rely, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
37
**We face significant risks relating to disruptions,
forks, 51% attacks, hacks, network disruptions, or other adverse events or other compromises to the cryptocurrency blockchains, which
could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.**
Blockchain networks are maintained by decentralized
networks of participants, and as such are susceptible and vulnerable to a variety of risks, including disruptions, security breaches,
and fundamental technical issues. Both networks are vulnerable to attacks by malicious actors who gain control of a significant portion
of the networks mining hash rate, a scenario commonly referred to as a 51% attack. In such an event, the attacker could double-spend
transactions, reverse previously confirmed transactions, or otherwise disrupt the normal operations of the network. Successful 51% attacks
have historically undermined trust in affected blockchain networks and could materially decrease the value of cryptocurrency assets.
Additionally, forks, or splits in the underlying
protocol, may occur when participants fail to reach consensus on proposed upgrades or changes. Forks can lead to the creation of duplicate
networks, confusion among market participants, dilution of the original networks value, and disruption of the networks operations.
Hard forks, in particular, can materially and adversely impact the perceived stability and value of digital assets, leading to reduced
demand and price declines.
Further, hacks and other security breaches targeting
the core infrastructure of blockchain networks or major participants, such as exchanges and custodians, could severely impact the reputation
and market confidence in these networks. Exploits of protocol-level vulnerabilities could also compromise the integrity of the cryptocurrency
blockchains, resulting in a substantial loss of value.
The success and growth of cryptocurrency assets
depend significantly on their continued security, stability, and scalability. Any technical failures, consensus breakdowns, governance
disputes, or regulatory interventions that diminish confidence in the networks or impair their functionality could lead to a material
decline in their market prices, which could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
A sustained or significant decrease in the price or liquidity of cryptocurrencies, whether due to 51% attacks, forks, hacks, network disruptions,
or other adverse events, could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Furthermore, even the perception
that any of these events could occur may lead to significant market volatility and price declines, adversely affecting our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
**Our custodially-held cryptocurrencies may
become part of the custodians insolvency estate if one or more of our custodians enters bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency
proceedings.**
We plan to hold substantially all of our cryptocurrency
in custody accounts at a U.S.-based, institutional-grade custodian that has demonstrated a record of regulatory compliance and information
security. As we further execute on our strategy, we intend to expand our holdings to multiple similar custodians.
If our custodially-held cryptocurrencies are considered
to be the property of our custodians estates in the event that any such custodians were to enter bankruptcy, receivership or similar
insolvency proceedings, we could be treated as a general unsecured creditor of such custodians, inhibiting our ability to exercise ownership
rights with respect to such cryptocurrencies and this may ultimately result in the loss of the value related to some or all of such assets.
A series of recent high-profile bankruptcies, closures, liquidations, regulatory enforcement actions and other events relating to companies
operating in the digital asset industry, the closure or liquidation of certain financial institutions that provided lending and other
services to the digital assets industry, and the filing and subsequent settlement of a civil fraud lawsuit have highlighted the counterparty
risks applicable to owning and transacting in digital assets. These bankruptcies, closures, liquidations and other events have likely
negatively impacted the adoption rate and use of cryptocurrencies. Additional bankruptcies, closures, liquidations, regulatory enforcement
actions or other events involving participants in the digital assets industry in the future may further negatively impact the adoption
rate, price, and use of cryptocurrencies, limit the availability to us of financing collateralized by such assets, or create or expose
additional counterparty risks. Any loss associated with such insolvency proceedings is unlikely to be covered by any insurance coverage
we maintain related to our cryptocurrencies. Even if we are able to prevent our cryptocurrencies from being considered the property of
a custodians bankruptcy estate as part of an insolvency proceeding, it is possible that we would still be delayed or may otherwise
experience difficulty in accessing our cryptocurrencies held by the affected custodian during the pendency of the insolvency proceedings.
Any such outcome could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the market price of our listed securities.
38
**Absent of federal regulations, there is
a possibility that certain cryptocurrencies may be classified as securities. Any classification of a cryptocurrency as a
security would subject us to additional regulation and could materially impact the operation of our business.**
****
Cryptocurrency refers to digital assets that are
issued by and transmitted through an open-source protocol, collectively maintained by a peer-to-peer network of decentralized user nodes.
We believe that digital assets intrinsically linked to a blockchain system, and the value of which is derived from or is reasonably expected
to be derived from the use of the blockchain system, such as HYPE, are not securities, but neither the SEC nor any other U.S. federal
or state regulator has formally taken such a position. Despite the Trump Administrations Executive Order titled Strengthening
American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology which includes as an objective protecting and promoting the ability
of individual citizens and private sector entities alike to access and to maintain self-custody of digital assets, cryptocurrency
has not yet been classified with respect to U.S. federal securities laws. Therefore, while (for the reasons discussed below) we believe
that HYPE and other cryptocurrencies intrinsically linked to a blockchain system are digital commodities andnot a securities
within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws, and registration of the Company under the 1940 Act, is therefore not required
under the applicable securities laws, we acknowledge that a regulatory body or federal court may determine otherwise. Therefore, our belief,
even if reasonable under the circumstances, would not preclude legal or regulatory action based on such a finding that cryptocurrency
is a security, which would require us to register as an investment company under the 1940 Act.
As such, we are at risk of enforcement proceedings
against us, which could result in potential injunctions, cease-and-desist orders, fines, and penalties if cryptocurrency was determined
to be a security by a regulatory body or a court. Such developments could subject us to fines, penalties, and other damages, and adversely
affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects.
**We, in connection with our DAT strategy,
are not subject to legal and regulatory obligations that apply to investment companies such as mutual funds and exchange-traded funds,
or to obligations applicable to investment advisers.**
Mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and their
directors and management are subject to extensive regulation as investment companies and investment advisers
under U.S. federal and state law; this regulation is intended for the benefit and protection of investors. We are not subject to, and
do not otherwise voluntarily comply with, these laws and regulations. This means, among other things, that the execution of or changes
to our cryptocurrency treasury strategy, our use of leverage, the manner in which our cryptocurrency is intended to be custodied, our
ability to engage in transactions with affiliated parties and our operating and investment activities generally are not subject to the
extensive legal and regulatory requirements and prohibitions that apply to investment companies and investment advisers. Consequently,
our board of directors has broad discretion over the investment, leverage and cash management policies it authorizes, whether in respect
of our cryptocurrency holdings or other activities we may pursue, and has the power to change our current policies, including our strategy
of acquiring and holding cryptocurrency.
**We may be subject to regulatory developments
related to crypto assets and crypto asset markets, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.**
As cryptocurrency and other digital assets are
relatively novel and the application of state and federal securities laws and other laws and regulations to digital assets is unclear
in certain respects, it is possible that regulators in the United States or foreign countries may interpret or apply existing laws and
regulations in a manner that adversely affects the price of cryptocurrency. The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies,
and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that
could materially impact the price of cryptocurrency or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer cryptocurrency.
If cryptocurrency is determined to constitute
a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, the additional regulatory restrictions imposed by such a determination could adversely
affect the market price of cryptocurrency and in turn adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Moreover, the risks of us
engaging in a cryptocurrency treasury strategy have created, and could continue to create complications due to the lack of experience
that third parties have with companies engaging in such a strategy, such as increased costs of director and officer liability insurance
or the potential inability to obtain such coverage on acceptable terms in the future.
39
**General Risk Factors**
**Unfavorable national or global economic
conditions or political developments could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.**
Our results of operations could be adversely affected
by general conditions in the national or global economy and financial markets. For example, governmental statements, actions or policies,
political unrest and global financial crises can cause extreme volatility and disruptions in the capital and credit markets. A severe
or prolonged economic downturn, political unrest or additional global financial crises, including those resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic
and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, the war in the Middle East and the conflict between China and Taiwan, could result in a variety of
risks to our business, including weakened demand for our products, if approved, or our ability to raise additional capital when needed
on acceptable terms, if at all. A weak or declining economy could also strain our suppliers, possibly resulting in supply disruption.
Any of the foregoing could harm our business and we cannot anticipate all of the ways in which the current economic climate, further political
developments and financial market conditions could adversely impact our business.
**Our cash and cash equivalents could be adversely affected if
the financial institutions in which we hold our cash and cash equivalents fail.**
We regularly maintain cash balances at third-party
financial institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. Any failure of a depository institution
to return these deposits on demand, or if a depository institution is subject to other adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets,
could impact access to our invested cash or cash equivalents and could adversely impact our operating liquidity and financial performance.
**Our business and operations are subject
to risks related to climate change and natural disasters.**
The effects of global climate change present risks
to our business. Natural disasters, extreme weather and other conditions caused by or related to climate change could adversely impact
our supply chain, the courier delivery services we use, the availability and cost of raw materials and components, energy supply, transportation,
or other inputs necessary for the operation of our business. Climate change and natural disasters could also result in physical damage
to our facilities as well as those of our suppliers, health care providers and other business partners, which could cause disruption in
our business and operations. Our facilities and our laboratory equipment would be costly to replace and could require substantial lead
time to repair or replace. Although we believe we possess adequate insurance for the disruption of our business from causalities, such
insurance may not be sufficient to cover all of our potential losses and may not continue to be available to us on acceptable terms, or
at all.

Risk Management and Strategy
We have established procedures for evaluating,
recognizing, and managing significant risks stemming from potential unauthorized events occurring on or through our electronic information
systems. These procedures comprise an important part of our overall enterprise risk management system and are aimed at preventing, detecting,
or mitigating data breaches, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, or any other security incidents or vulnerabilities affecting digitally
stored data. Internally we have an Internet, Email and Computer Use Policy and all of our employees have been trained on the policy and
related tools. Additionally, we employ processes to manage and identify risks arising from cybersecurity threats linked to supplier and
customer relationships and our utilization of third-party technology and systems. Our operations involve collecting and storing information
in cloud systems, such as Google Drive, and we rely on third-party providers, such as Google, whose systems may encounter interruptions
and/or cybersecurity incidents.
We adhere to a risk management framework based
on applicable laws and regulations to handle cybersecurity risks across our products, services, infrastructure and corporate assets. We
regularly conduct risk assessments to gauge the effectiveness of our systems, identifying areas for improvement. These processes enable
us to make informed, risk-based decisions and prioritize cybersecurity measures and risk mitigation strategies. Our risk mitigation efforts
encompass a range of technical and operational actions. Our cybersecurity risk management program is supported by third-party information
technologies and vendors, including Squarespace and Google Workspace, which assist us with information technology system monitoring, detection,
and response support services.
40
Governance
Our cybersecurity risks and related responses
are evaluated by senior leadership and any notable developments are reviewed by our Board of Directors. Our management team supervises
efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate and remediate cybersecurity risks and incidents. However, we cannot guarantee that our efforts will
prevent any cybersecurity incident from occurring.
As of the date of this report, we have not identified
any risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, that we believe have, or are likely
to, materially affect us, our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.
**Item 2. Properties**
Our principal office is located at 3600 Green
Court, Suite 350, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105-1570. We lease approximately 6,315 square feet of office and light industrial/research space
under a lease that is due to expire in March 2029. The rent was $15,278 per month through December 31, 2025 and $14,399 per month effective
January 1, 2026, subject to moderate annual increases after 2026.
We also maintain an office in London, Ontario,
Canada under a lease that is terminable by either party with 60 days written notice. The rent is approximately $900 per month per
the agreement with the landlord, subject to moderate annual increases at the discretion of the landlord.
We believe that, with respect to both of our facilities, equivalent
suitable space is available at similar rents.
**Item 3. Legal Proceedings**
We are not currently a party to any pending legal proceedings that
we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business or financial conditions.
We may, however, be subject to various claims and legal actions arising
in the ordinary course of business from time to time.

**Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations**
*The following discussion of our financial condition
and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere
in this Annual Report. This discussion and analysis contain forward-looking statements that are based on our managements current
beliefs and assumptions, which statements are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially
from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed in Risk
Factors in Item 1A of this Annual Report. Please also see Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and
Risk Factor Summary at the beginning of this Annual Report.*
**Overview**
We are developing a thermo-acoustic medical device
designed specifically for accurate liver fat measurement for metabolic disease detection and management and GLP-1 drug eligibility and
management. Our goal is to create the next-generation enhanced ultrasound technology platform designed to establish key biomarkers for
metabolic diseases management and emerging GLP-1 therapies.
Our business model will primarily be a low barrier-to-entry,
multi-year, subscription-based business model with monthly recurring revenue (MRR), while also offering a traditional product sale with
annual upgrade and maintenance fees. These sales are expected to be made by a direct sales force to four markets:
| 
1. | Pharmaceutical Companies and Clinical Research Organizations
(CROs) - to assist them in the efficient screening & monitoring subjects for new GLP-1, NASH/MASH and Insulin Sensitizers
clinical trials. | 
|
| 
2. | High-End Primary Care Clinics - to assist them screening
patients for obesity, diabetes and liver disease as well as monitor response to lifestyle changes and drug therapies. | 
|
| 
3. | Bariatric and Metabolic Clinics - for obesity and other metabolic
diseases detection and therapies response monitoring | 
|
| 
4. | Primary & Internal Medicine at Large - to screen patients
for obesity, diabetes and liver disease and monitor response to lifestyle change and drug therapy | 
|
Each of our solutions will require regulatory
approvals before we are able to sell or license the application. Based on certain factors, such as the installed base of ultrasound systems,
availability of other imaging technologies, such as CT and MRI, economic strength and applicable regulatory requirements, we intend to
seek initial approval of our applications for sale in the European Union and the United States.
In 2026, we implemented cost reduction measures,
including a reduction in headcount and prioritization of development activities over clinical ones, to extend our operating runway and
focus resources on product improvements and regulatory strategy for our TAEUS liver application. These actions are expected to impact
the timing of certain development activities, including delaying the timing of a future De Novo submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) relating to our TAEUS liver application.
**Financial Operations Overview**
*Revenue*
No revenue has been generated by our TAEUS technology, which we have
not commercially sold as of December 31, 2025.
43
*Research and Development Expenses*
Our research and development expenses primarily
include wages, fees and equipment for the development of our TAEUS technology platform. Additionally, we incur certain costs associated
with the protection of our products and inventions through a combination of patents, licenses, applications and disclosures. These costs
and expenses include:
| 
| employee-related expenses, such as salaries, bonuses and benefits, consultant-related expenses such as consultant fees and bonuses,
stock-based compensation, overhead related expenses and travel-related expenses for our research and development personnel; | |
| 
| expenses incurred under agreements with CROs, contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) as well as consultants that
support the implementation of our clinical and non-clinical studies; | |
| 
| manufacturing and packaging costs in connection with conducting clinical trials; | |
| 
| formulation, research and development expenses related to our TAEUS technology; and | |
| 
| costs for sponsored research. | |
We plan to incur research and development expenses
for the foreseeable future as we expect to continue the development of TAEUS and pursue FDA approval. At this time, due to the inherently
unpredictable nature of clinical development and regulatory approvals, we are unable to estimate with certainty the costs we will incur
and the timelines we will require in our continued development efforts.
*Sales and Marketing Expenses*
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily
of headcount and consulting costs. We have significantly reduced our sales and marketing expenses as part of our cost reduction measures.
In the event we obtain FDA approval of our TAEUS liver device, we will seek to expand our sales & marketing efforts, primarily by
adding a direct sales force and related expenses and costs.
*General and Administrative Expenses*
General and administrative expenses consist primarily
of salaries and related expenses for our management and personnel, and professional fees, such as for accounting, consulting and legal
services.
We anticipate continued costs associated with
being a public company, including expenses related to services associated with maintaining compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market and
SEC requirements, directors and officers insurance, increased legal and accounting costs and investor relations costs.
**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**
*Use of Estimates*
The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
44
Management makes estimates that affect certain
accounts including deferred income tax assets, accrued expenses, fair value of equity instruments, warrant liability and reserves for
any other commitments or contingencies. Any adjustments applied to estimates are recognized in the period in which such adjustments are
determined.
*Share-based Compensation*
The Companys 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan
(the Omnibus Plan) permits the grant of stock options and other stock awards to our employees, consultants and non-employee
members of our board of directors. Each January 1 the pool of shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan automatically increases
by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the number of shares necessary such that the aggregate number of shares available under the Omnibus
Plan equals 25% of the number of fully-diluted outstanding shares on the increase date (assuming the conversion of all outstanding shares
of preferred stock and other outstanding convertible securities and exercise of all outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares)
and (ii) if the board of directors takes action to set a lower amount, the amount determined by the board. In addition, on December 9,
2025, the stockholders approved the Second Amendment to the Omnibus Plan (the Omnibus Plan Amendment The Omnibus Plan Amendment
increased the pool of shares available for issuance by 3,200,000 shares of common stock. Due to these increases, the pool of shares issuable
under the Omnibus Plan shares increased from 1,738 shares to 3,048,799 shares as of December 31, 2025. In light of the increase effected
by the Omnibus Plan Amendment, no automatic increase to the pool was effected as of January 1, 2026.
We record share-based compensation in accordance
with the provisions of the Share-based Compensation Topic of the FASB Codification. The guidance requires the use of option-pricing models
that require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the options expected life and the price volatility of the underlying
stock. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model which uses
certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the common stock options, and future dividends,
and the resulting charge is expensed using the straight-line attribution method over the vesting period.
Stock compensation expense recognized during the
period is based on the value of share-based awards that were expected to vest during the period adjusted for estimated forfeitures. The
estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to non-employees is charged to expense, if applicable, in the financial statements.
*Recent Accounting Pronouncements*
See Note 2 of the accompanying financial statements for a discussion
of recently issued accounting standards.
**Results of Operations**
*Years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024*
*Revenue*
We had no revenue during the years ended December
31, 2025 and 2024.
*Cost of Goods Sold*
We had no cost of goods sold during the years
ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
*Research and Development*
Research and development expenses were $1,849,996
for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $3,190,293 for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $1,340,297 or 42%.
The costs include primarily wages, fees, consultants, contractors and equipment for the development of our TAEUS product line. Research
and development expenses decreased from the prior year as we completed development of our initial TAEUS product and began focusing our
spending on small trials to test our results.
45
*Sales and Marketing*
Sales and marketing expenses were $189,470 for
the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $571,040 for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $381,570, or 67%. The costs
include primarily headcount and pre-selling activities for our TAEUS product line. Sales and marketing expenses decreased largely due
to the reduction of Sales & Marketing personnel until the clinical trials are complete.
*General and Administrative*
Our general and administrative expenses for the
year ended December 31, 2025 were $3,723,635, compared to $7,055,814 for the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $3,332,179, or
47%.
The primary driver of this decrease was our inventory
reserve. In 2024, in connection with a strategic shift under the direction of our new management team, we determined that we needed to
redesign our TAEUS liver system to require less space, be simpler to use and be more cost effective. As a result, we performed a thorough
assessment of the valuation of inventory as of December 31, 2024 and determined to record a non-cash charge to reserve against all inventory,
as it may not be usable in connection with our redesigned system. This reserve totaled $2,525,179 as of December 31, 2024. Our reserve
was $0 as of December 31, 2025.
Also included in general and administrative expenses
for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were wages and related expenses of $1,197,556 and $1,365,860, respectively, and professional
fees of $1,728,107 and $2,177,046, respectively.
*Other Expenses*
Other expenses were $1,264,309 for the year ended
December 31, 2025 primarily driven by changes in fair value of digital assets, non-cash warrant expense, changes in fair value of warrant
liability and gain on settlement on warrant exercise.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, we had other
expense of $690,800 primarily driven by non-cash warrant expense, changes in fair value of warrant liability and gain on settlement on
warrant exercise.
*Net Loss*
As a result of the foregoing, for the year ended
December 31, 2025, we recorded a net loss of $7,027,410, compared to a net loss of $11,507,947 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
**Near-Term Liquidity and Capital Resources**
Since inception, we have incurred losses and expect
to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $110,465,509 and had
$762,365 in cash. To date we have funded our operations through private and public sales of our securities and will need to raise additional
funds in order to execute on our business plan, fully commercialize our TAEUS technology, and generate revenues. In 2026, we implemented
cost reduction measures, including a reduction in headcount and prioritization of development activities over clinical ones, to extend
our operating runway and focus resources on product improvements and regulatory strategy for our TAEUS liver application. These actions
are expected to impact the timing of certain development activities, including delaying the timing of a future De Novo submission to the
FDA relating to our TAEUS liver application. Additionally, in March 2026, we announced that the Board had initiated a process to evaluate
a range of strategic alternatives including, but not limited to strategic investments, mergers, business combinations, in-licensing or
collaboration arrangements, asset sales, or sale or merger of the Company.
46
If we are unable to obtain adequate financing
or financings in the near term or if the strategic alternatives review process does not result in any transaction or other strategic outcome,
we will be forced to undertake additional measures, which may include materially curtailing or eliminating our operations, or undergoing
restructuring or insolvency proceedings.
We need additional capital to allow us to continue
to execute our clinical trials and commercialization plans through 2026 and beyond. We are considering potential financing options that
may be available to us, including sales of our common stock through our at-the-market sales program (the ATM Program) with
Lucid Capital Markets, LLC, which are limited due to registration statement rules relating to public float. Except for the ATM Program,
we have no commitments to obtain any additional funds, and there can be no assurance funds will be available in sufficient amounts or
on acceptable terms. If we are unable to obtain sufficient additional financing in a timely fashion and on terms acceptable to us, our
financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected and we may not be able to continue operations or execute
our stated commercialization plan.
The consolidated financial statements included
in this Form 10-K have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements,
during the year ended December 31, 2025, we incurred net losses of $7,027,410 and used cash in operations of $5,182,558. In light of our
cash balance as of December 31, 2025, we will need to raise additional capital in order to fund operations through the next twelve months.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
**Operating Activities**
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we used
$5,182,558 of cash in operating activities primarily as a result of our net loss of $7,027,410, offset by share-based compensation of
$329,409, change in fair value of warrant liability of ($319,537), fair value of vested advisory warrants of $665,030, digital asset staking
compensation of ($5,121), changes in fair value of digital assets of $995,161, amortization of right of use assets of $113,249, depreciation
expense of $44,045, and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $22,616.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, we used
$7,400,547 of cash in operating activities primarily as a result of our net loss of $11,507,947, offset by a non-cash charge for inventory
reserve of $2,387,134, share-based compensation of $571,924, the net effect of warrants of $799,284 (which includes warrant expense of
$7,323,685, changes in fair value of warrant liability of ($3,447,737) and gain on settlement on warrant exercise of ($3,076,664)), amortization
of right of use assets of $159,683, depreciation expense of $46,489, fixed assets write-off of $8,808, and net changes in operating assets
and liabilities of $134,079.
**Investing Activities**
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we used
$17,280 in investing activities related to purchases of fixed assets, and purchased $3,000,000 of digital intangible assets.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, we used
$16,000 in investing activities related to purchases of fixed assets, and received $3,204 in proceeds from sale of fixed assets.
**Financing Activities**
During the year ended December 31, 2025, our financing
activities provided $4,514,482 in proceeds from fundraising activities, $1,218,241 in proceeds from issuances of common stock for cash.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, our financing
activities provided $1,148,470 in proceeds from issuances of common stock and warrants, $6,688,930 in proceeds from warrant issuances
and exercises. We also used $28,484 to repay a loan from TD Bank under the Canadian Emergency Business Account.
47
**Long-Term Liquidity**
We have not completed the commercialization of
any of our TAEUS technology platform applications. To the extent we continue the development and commercialization of our TAEUS technology,
we would expect to continue to incur significant expenses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses may increase as
we:
| 
| advance the engineering design and development of our TAEUS technology; | |
| 
| acquire parts and build finished goods inventory of the TAEUS system; | |
| 
| complete regulatory filings required for marketing approval in the United States, including clinical studies to support our planned
De Novo application with the FDA; | |
| 
| seek to hire a sales and marketing team to market and sell our products; | |
| 
| advance development of other applications; and | |
| 
| add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our product development,
planned commercialization efforts and our operation as a public company. | |
It is possible that we will not achieve the progress
that we expect because the actual costs and timing of completing the development and regulatory approvals for a new medical device are
difficult to predict and are subject to substantial risks and delays. We have no committed external sources of funds except for the ATM
Program, the use of which is limited due to registration statement rules relating to public float. We do not expect that our existing
cash will be sufficient for us to complete the commercialization of our TAEUS application or to complete the development of any other
TAEUS application and we will need to raise additional capital for those purposes. As a result, we will need to finance our future cash
needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements or other financing
alternatives. Our forecast of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations is a
forward-looking statement and involves risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary as a result of a number of factors, including
the factors discussed in the Risk Factors section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have based this estimate on assumptions that
may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect.
Until we can generate a sufficient amount of revenue
from our TAEUS platform applications, if ever, we expect to finance future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt
financings or corporate collaborations and licensing arrangements. Additional funds may not be available when we need them on terms that
are acceptable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to cease the operation of our business. To the
extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience additional dilution, and debt financing,
if available, may involve restrictive covenants. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaborations and licensing arrangements,
it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our technologies or applications or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable
to us. We may seek to access the public or private capital markets whenever conditions are favorable, even if we do not have an immediate
need for additional capital at that time. As described above under Near-Term Liquidity and Capital Resources, the Board
initiated a process to review strategic alternatives for the Company.
**Off-Balance Sheet Transactions**
At December 31, 2025, the Company did not have any transactions, obligations
or relationships that could be considered off-balance sheet arrangements.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. and Subsidiaries
**Opinion on the Financial Statements**
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. and Subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024,
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period
ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In
our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025
and 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
**The Companys Ability to Continue as a Going
Concern**
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, generated negative cash flows from operating activities, has an
accumulated deficit and has stated that substantial doubt exists about Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements
evaluation of the events and conditions and managements plans in regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
**Basis for Opinion**
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys financial statements based on our
audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB)
and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the
standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged
to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond
to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
**Critical Audit Matters**
The critical audit matters
communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to
be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and
(2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in
any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below,
providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

**Crypto Assets Held**
**
*Critical Audit Matter
Description*
Crypto
assets are generally accessible only by the possessor of the unique private key relating to the digital wallet or node in which the crypto
assets are held. Accordingly, private keys must be safeguarded and secured in order to prevent an unauthorized party from accessing the
crypto assets within a digital wallet. The Company primarily holds crypto assets for its own use in wallets. The loss, theft, or otherwise
compromise of access to the private keys required to access the crypto assets could adversely affect the Companys ability to access
the crypto assets within its environment. This could result in loss of crypto assets held.
We
identified crypto assets held as a critical audit matter due to the nature and extent of audit effort required to obtain sufficient appropriate
audit evidence to address the risks of material misstatement related to the existence and rights & obligations of crypto assets in
the wallet. The nature and extent of audit effort required to address the matter includes significant involvement of more experienced
engagement team members related to the matter.
*How the Critical Audit
Matter Was Addressed in the Audit*
Our
audit procedures related to crypto assets held in wallet included the following, among others:
| 
1. | We noted the controls within the Companys private key management process including controls related
to physical access, key generation, and segregation of duties across the processes. | |
| 
2. | We tested the effectiveness of managements reconciliation control of internal books and records
to external blockchains. | |
| 
3. | We independently obtained evidence from public blockchains to test the existence of crypto asset balances. | |
| 
4. | We obtained confirmation from Custodian confirming the number of tokens held in the wallet as on the reporting
date. | |
| 
5. | We obtained evidence that management has control of the private keys required to access crypto assets

to include a Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) initiative, managed in collaboration with Arca Investment Management (Arca),
which seeks to optimize capital preservation and generate non-dilutive returns through investments in decentralized finance (DeFi)
assets. This financial strategy operates in tandem with the Companys core medical technology mission: the commercialization of
the TAEUS platform via a recurring subscription model, with a specific focus on the burgeoning GLP-1 and metabolic disease markets.
ENDRA was incorporated on July 18, 2007 as a Delaware corporation.
**Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Going Concern**
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Management makes estimates that affect certain
accounts including inventory reserve, deferred income tax assets, accrued expenses, fair value of equity instruments, fair value of warrant
liability and reserves for any other commitments or contingencies. Any adjustments applied to estimates are recognized in the period in
which such adjustments are determined.
Principles of Consolidation
The Companys consolidated financial statements
include all accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries and/or entities as of reporting period ending date(s) and for the
reporting period(s) then ended. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements and related disclosures
have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These financial
statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)
of the United States.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all cash on hand and in
banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit, and other highly liquid investments with maturities of
one year or less, when purchased, to be cash. Cash equivalents include investments in an institutional money market fund, which invests
in U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds, and/or repurchase agreements, backed by such obligations. Carrying value approximates fair value.
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced
any losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of the financial institutions and has determined the credit
exposure to be negligible. The Company maintains cash deposits at multiple banks to mitigate the risk associated with a failure of any
specific bank.
Inventory
The Companys inventory is stated at the
lower of cost or estimated net realizable value, with cost primarily determined on a weighted-average cost basis on the first-in, first-out
method. The Company periodically determines whether a reserve should be taken for devaluation or obsolescence of inventory.
In 2024, The Company determined that it needed
to redesign its system so that it requires less space, is simpler to use and is more cost effective. Based on this, the Company performed
a thorough assessment of the valuation of inventory as of December 31, 2024 and reserved 100% of the inventory. This reserve totaled $2,525,179
as of December 31, 2024. Our reserve was 5% of inventory, or $138,045 as of December 31, 2023.
F-8
Capitalization of Fixed Assets
The Company capitalizes expenditures related to
property and equipment, subject to a minimum rule, that have a useful life greater than one year for: (1) assets purchased; (2) existing
assets that are replaced, improved or the useful lives have been extended; or (3) all land, regardless of cost. Acquisitions of new assets,
additions, replacements and improvements (other than land) costing less than the minimum rule in addition to maintenance and repair costs,
including any planned major maintenance activities, are expensed as incurred.
Leases
Accounting Standards Update (ASU)
No. 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with
terms longer than 12 months. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing
at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements. At December 31, 2025 and 2024 the
Company recorded a right of use asset of $461,949 and $578,013, respectively. At December 31, 2025 and 2024 the Company recorded a lease
liability of $492,352 and $584,419, respectively.
Digital Assets
The Company maintains a digital asset treasury strategy (DAT
Strategy) under which it may acquire, hold, and deploy certain digital assets as part of its treasury and capital management activities.
The Companys digital assets consist primarily of [Bitcoin/Ethereum/other], which are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets
as Digital assets.
Measurement of Digital Assets
Digital assets are accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets
and, effective January 1, 2025, are measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 350-60, *IntangiblesGoodwill and OtherCrypto
Assets*. The Company determines the fair value of its digital assets based on quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1 inputs)
as of the reporting date.
Changes in the fair value of digital assets are recognized in the consolidated
statements of operations within Change in fair value of digital assets. Realized gains and losses from the sale of digital
assets are also recorded within this line item. Transaction costs associated with the acquisition or disposition of digital assets are
expensed as incurred within operating expenses.
Digital Asset Staking
The Company may participate in staking activities whereby it validates
transactions on blockchain networks and earns rewards in the form of additional digital assets.
Digital asset staking rewards are recognized as revenue within Digital
asset staking compensation in the consolidated statements of operations when the Company has (i) performed the required validation
services, (ii) earned the right to receive the rewards, and (iii) the amount can be reasonably estimated. Staking rewards are measured
at the fair value of the digital assets received at the time they are earned.
Digital assets received from staking activities are initially recorded
at fair value and subsequently included in the Companys digital asset holdings, where they are remeasured at fair value at each
reporting period.
Custody and Safeguarding
The Company utilizes third-party custodians to safeguard its digital
assets. The Company recognizes digital assets on its balance sheet when it has control over the assets, including when assets are held
by a custodian on the Companys behalf.
Presentation
Digital assets are classified as noncurrent assets on the consolidated
balance sheets unless management intends to sell them within one year. Changes in fair value and staking compensation are presented separately
within operating income (loss), unless otherwise required by the nature of the Companys operations.
F-9
Revenue Recognition
ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts
with Customers (ASC Topic 606) provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all
industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principle of the
entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which
the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
Under ASC Topic 606, in order to recognize revenue,
the Company is required to identify an approved contract with commitments to perform respective obligations, identify rights of each party
in the transaction regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has
commercial substance and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable.
Research and Development Costs
The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards
Codification (ASC) Subtopic 730-10, Research and Development. Research and development costs are charged to
the statement of operations as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred $1,849,996 and $3,190,293
of expenses related to research and development costs, respectively.
Net Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
The Company computes earnings per share under
ASC Subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable
to the common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (the denominator) during
the reporting periods. Diluted loss per share is computed by increasing the denominator by the weighted average number of additional shares
that could have been outstanding from securities convertible into common stock (using the treasury stock method), unless
their effect on net loss per share is anti-dilutive. There were 2,626,254 and 180,986 potentially dilutive shares, which include outstanding
common stock options, and warrants, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements
Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments
require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate
that value.
In accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures, the Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC
Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
F-10
Fair value is defined as the price that would
be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy
gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and
the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
| 
| Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices
for identical instruments in active markets; | 
|
| 
| Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active
markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices
for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and | 
|
| 
| Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or
no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques
in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. | 
|
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their
fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant
model assumption or input is unobservable.
The carrying amounts of the Companys financial
assets and liabilities, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities,
approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of options and warrants is estimated
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model or other appropriate valuation techniques. Key assumptions include expected volatility, risk-free
interest rate, expected term, and dividend yield. These inputs are based on observable market data where available (Level 2) or, when
necessary, managements estimates (Level 3). Fair value measurements are reassessed at each reporting date, and any changes are
reflected in the financial statements.
Share-based Compensation
The Companys 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan
(the Omnibus Plan) permits the grant of stock options and other share-based awards to its employees, consultants and non-employee
members of the board of directors. Each January 1 the pool of shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan automatically increases
by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the number of shares necessary such that the aggregate number of shares available under the Omnibus
Plan equals 25% of the number of fully-diluted outstanding shares on the increase date (assuming the conversion of all outstanding shares
of preferred stock and other outstanding convertible securities and exercise of all outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares)
and (ii) if the board of directors takes action to set a lower amount, the amount determined by the board. On January 1, 2025, the pool
of shares issuable under the Omnibus Plan automatically increased by 178,033. In addition, on December 9, 2025, the stockholders of ENDRA
Life Sciences Inc. (the Company) approved the Second Amendment to the Companys 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the Omnibus
Plan Amendment) at the 2025 Annual Meeting of the Companys Stockholders (the Annual Meeting). That Amendment
increased the pool of shares available for issuance by 3,200,000 shares of common stock. Due to these increases, the pool of shares issuable
under the Omnibus Plan shares increased from from 1,738 shares to 3,379,771 shares as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, prior
to such increase, there were 1,441 shares of common stock remaining available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan.
The Company records share-based compensation in
accordance with the provisions of the Share-based Compensation Topic of the FASB Codification. The guidance requires the use of option-pricing
models that require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the options expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The fair value
of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, and the resulting charge is expensed
using the straight-line attribution method over the vesting period.
Stock compensation expense recognized during
the period is based on the value of share-based awards that were expected to vest during the period adjusted for estimated forfeitures.
The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to non-employees of the Company is charged to expense, if applicable,
in the financial statements. These options vest in the same manner as the employee options granted under the stock incentive plan as
described above. Accounting guidance requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent
periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company has limited historical experience with forfeitures and were based
on managements estimates.
F-11
Going Concern
The Companys financial statements are prepared
using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates
the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has limited commercial experience
and had a cumulative net loss from inception to December 31, 2025 of $110,465,509. The Company had working capital of $217,013 as of December
31, 2025. The Company has not established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue
as a going concern and will require additional financing to fund its future planned operations, including research and development and
commercialization of its products. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a
going concern, but the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to
fund operating losses until it establishes a revenue stream and becomes profitable. Managements plans to continue as a going concern
include raising additional capital through sales of equity securities and borrowing. However, management cannot provide any assurances
that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. If the Company is not able to obtain the necessary additional financing
on a timely basis, the Company will be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of the Companys research
and development activities or commercialization efforts or perhaps even cease the operation of its business. The ability of the Company
to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to
continue as a going concern.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considered recent accounting pronouncements
issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC, did
not or in managements opinion will not have a material impact on the Companys present or future consolidated financial statements.

**Note 6 - Bank Loans**
**Toronto-Dominion Bank Loan**
On April 27, 2020, the Company entered into a
commitment loan with TD Bank under the Canadian Emergency Business Account, in the principal aggregate amount of CAD 40,000, due and payable
upon the expiration of the initial term on December 31, 2022, which was later extended to December 31, 2023. This note bears interest
on the unpaid balance at the rate of zero percent (0%) per annum during the initial term. Under this note no interest payments are due
until January 1, 2024. Under the conditions of the loan, twenty-five percent (25%) of the loan will be forgiven if seventy-five percent
(75%) is repaid prior to the initial term date. As of December 31, 2023, the loan had a balance of CAD 40,000. The loan was fully repaid
in 2024.
**Note 7 - Capital Stock**
**Reverse Stock Splits**
On August 16, 2024, the Company filed with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of amendment to its certificate of incorporation, which effectuated as of August
20, 2024 at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time a reverse split of the Companys common stock by a ratio of one-for-50 (the August 2024
Reverse Stock Split).
On November 4, 2024, the Company filed with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of amendment to its certificate of incorporation, which effectuated as of November
7, 2024 at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time a reverse split of the Companys common stock by a ratio of one-for-35 (the November 2024
Reverse Stock Split).
All per share amounts (including exercise prices)
and number of shares in the consolidated financial statements and related notes have been retroactively restated to reflect both the August
2024 Reverse Stock Split and the November 2024 Reverse Stock Split.
The August 2024 Reverse Stock Split and the November
2024 Reverse Stock Split resulted in a proportionate adjustment to the per share conversion or exercise price and the number of shares
of common stock issuable upon the conversion or exercise of outstanding preferred stock, stock options and warrants, as well as the number
of shares of common stock eligible for issuance under the Omnibus Plan.
**Capital Stock**
At December 31, 2025, the authorized capital of
the Company consisted of 1,010,000,000 shares of capital stock, comprised of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of
$0.0001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. The Company has designated 10,000 shares
of its preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (Series A Preferred Stock), 1,000 shares of its preferred
stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (Series B Preferred Stock), 100,000 shares of its preferred stock as Series
C Preferred Stock, and the remainder of the 9,889,000 preferred shares remain authorized but undesignated.
As of December 31, 2025, there were 1,176,477
shares of common stock (which excludes both the 69 unvested shares of restricted stock described in Note 8 below, the 1 share of common
stock into which the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible and does include 12,857 shares of common stock due
to exercise of warrants and 6 shares issued but held in treasury), 17.488 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and no shares of Series
B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, and a stock payable balance of $0.

**Recent Offerings**
On October 15, 2025, the Company closed a private
placement offering (the Private Placement) of an aggregate of 744,340 shares of its common stock, or prefunded warrants
in lieu thereof, and warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,488,680 shares of common sock at a per share exercise price of $6.32
(or $6.81 in respect of warrants purchased by a member of the Companys board of directors), for net proceeds of $4,514,482.
On June 4, 2024, the Company entered into a placement
agency agreement (the Placement Agreement) with Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC (the Placement Agent) pursuant
to which the Placement Agent served, on a best efforts basis, in connection with the issuance and sale (the Offering) of
3,490 shares of common stock and 31,674 pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 31,666 shares of common stock (the pre-funded
warrants), together with Series A warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 178,255 shares of common stock (the Series
A Warrants) and Series B warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 178,255 shares of common stock (the Series B Warrants
and, together with the Series A Warrants, the Series Warrants). The common stock, pre-funded warrants and Series Warrants
were sold in a fixed combination, with each share of common stock or pre-funded warrant accompanied by a Series A Warrant to purchase
one share of common stock and a Series B Warrant to purchase one share of common stock. In connection with the Offering, the Company also
issued to the Placement Agent warrants (Placement Agent Warrants) to purchase up to 1,758 shares of common stock. The Offering
closed on June 5, 2024. The purchase price of each share of common stock and accompanying Series Warrants was $227.50 and the purchase
price of each pre-funded warrant and accompanying common warrants was $227.325.
The Company received net proceeds from the Offering, after deducting
offering expenses payable by the Company, of $7,338,333.
The Offering was made pursuant to the Companys
registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-278842), declared effective by the SEC on June 4, 2024.
The Series Warrants were first exercised in connection
with effectiveness of the amendment to the Companys certificate of incorporation filed for the August 2024 Reverse Stock Split
(the Initial Exercise Date). Each Series A Warrant will expire five years from the Initial Exercise Date. Each Series B
Warrant will expire two and one-half years from the Initial Exercise Date.
In addition, the Series Warrants include a provision
that resets their respective exercise prices in the event of a reverse split of the Companys common stock to a price equal to the
lesser of (i) the then current exercise price and (ii) lowest volume weighted average price (VWAP) during the period commencing
five trading days immediately preceding and the five trading days commencing on the date the Company effects a reverse stock split, (such
lower price, the Floor Price), provided that such Floor Price shall not be lower than $0.0434 (subject to adjustment for
reverse and forward splits, recapitalizations and similar transactions), with a proportionate adjustment to the number of shares underlying
the Series Warrants. The effect of the Companys August 2024 and November 2024 reverse splits are that the number of shares underlying
the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants totaled 178,255 each.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Series A Warrants
provide for an adjustment to the exercise price and number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants upon the Companys issuance
of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents at a price per share that is less than the exercise price of the Series A Warrants, provided
that such adjusted price shall be no less than $75.95.
Under the alternate cashless exercise option of
the Series B Warrants, the holder of a Series B Warrant has the right to receive an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of
(x) the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon a cashless exercise of the Series B Warrant using $1.75
as the exercise price for that purpose and (y) 3.0.
F-15
A holder does not have the right to exercise any
portion of the Series A Warrants or Series B Warrants if the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of
4.99% of the number of shares of the Companys common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such
percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants. However, any holder may
increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall
not be effective until 61 days following notice from the holder to us.
Pursuant to the Placement Agreement, in addition
to the Placement Agent Warrants described above, the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash placement fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate
gross proceeds raised in the Offering. The Company reimbursed expenses of the Placement Agent in connection with the Offering, including
but not limited to legal fees, of $100,000. The Placement Agent Warrants have an expiration date of three and one-half years from the
Initial Exercise Date and were immediately exercisable upon issuance.
**At-the-Market Equity Offering Programs**
On June 21, 2021, the Company entered into the
At-The-Market Issuance Sales Agreement with Ascendiant (the June 2021 ATM Agreement) to sell shares of common stock for
aggregate gross proceeds of up to $20.0 million, from time to time, through an at-the-market equity offering program under
which Ascendiant acts as sales agent. Prior to its replacement by the February 2024 ATM Agreement (as defined below), under the June 2021
ATM Agreement the Company issued an aggregate of 1,547 shares of common stock in return for net proceeds of $11,407,240, resulting in

liability at the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease typically does not provide an implicit rate; therefore,

over the lease term to the extent that collection is considered probable. As a result, the Company has been recognizing rents as they
become payable based on the adoption of ASC Topic 842. The weighted-average remaining lease term is 3.17 years.

The domestic U.S. net operating loss carryforward
increased from $70,976,189 at December 31, 2024 to $77,880,679 at December 31, 2025. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive
and negative, management has recorded a full valuation allowance at December 31, 2025 and 2024, due to the uncertainty of realizing the
deferred income tax assets. Out of the $77,880,679 net operating losses carry forward, $16,012,698 will begin to expire in 2028 and $61,867,981
will have an indefinite life. The Companys Total State net operating losses also increased from $94,278,557 at December 31, 2024
to $101,674,023 at December 31, 2025. The State net operating losses will began to expire in 2028. There are also net operating losses
from Canada, France, Germany, Netherlands and UK total to 6,060,699 as of December 31, 2025.
The Internal Revenue Code includes a provision,
referred to as Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI), which provides for a 10.5% tax on certain income of controlled
foreign corporations. We have elected to account for GILTI as a period cost if and when occurred, rather than recognizing deferred taxes
for basis differences expected to reverse.
The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S.
and various states and foreign jurisdictions. U.S. federal income tax returns for 2022 and after remain open to examination. We and our

does not have any unrecognized tax benefits, and continues to monitor its current and prior tax positions for any changes. The Company
recognizes penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. For the years ended December31, 2025

**Note 14 - Segment Reporting**
Operating segments are defined as components of
an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision
making group, in deciding how to allocate resources in assessing performance. The Company has one reportable segment: biotech. The biotech
segment consists of the development of clinical and preclinical product candidates for the development of the Companys proprietary
new enhanced thermoacoustic technology platform. The Companys chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the chief
executive officer.
F-23
The accounting policies of the biotech segment
are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The CODM assesses performance for the biotech segment
based on net loss, which is reported on the income statement as consolidated net loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the
balance sheet as total consolidated assets.
To date, the Company has not generated any product
revenue. The Company expects to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future as it advances
product candidates through all stages of development and clinical trials and, ultimately, seek regulatory approval.
As such, the CODM uses cash forecast models in
deciding how to invest into the biotech segment. Such cash forecast models are reviewed to assess the entity-wide operating results and
performance. Net loss is used to monitor budget versus actual results. Monitoring budgeted versus actual results is used in assessing
performance of the segment and in establishing managements compensation, along with cash forecast models.

reviewed by the CODM for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024:

**Note 15 - Subsequent Events**
The Company has evaluated events through March
31, 2026, the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and determined that there have been no additional subsequent events that
occurred that would require adjustments to our disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, other than the following:
On February 23, 2026, the Company completed a
sale and transfer of $150,000 of digital assets to fund ongoing operations.
On February 26, 2026, the Company issued a total
of 64,274 shares of its common stock in return for aggregate net proceeds of $263,748 under the October 2025 ATM Agreement, which takes
into account $8,154 in compensation paid to Lucid.
On March 16, 2026, the Company completed a sale
and transfer of $150,000 of digital assets to fund ongoing operations.
On March 19, 2026, the Company implemented a
reduction in workforce as part of efforts to extend its cash runway and align resources with its strategic priorities. In connection
with this action, the Company expects to incur pre-tax cash charges of approximately $51,282 related to severance payments, which are
expected to be recognized in the first quarter of 2026.
On March 25, 2026, the Company announced that
it had initiated a process to evaluate a range of strategic alternatives aimed at maximizing shareholder value. The Company continues
to evaluate these alternatives; however, there can be no assurance as to the outcome or timing of this process.

**Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting
and Financial Disclosure.**
None.
**Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.**
**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**
As of the end of the period covered by this report,
management performed, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness
of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs forms, and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officer concluded that,
as of December 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a material weakness in internal control over
financial reporting, as described below.
**Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial
Reporting**
Our management is responsible for establishing
and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Internal
control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Companys management and board of
directors regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal
control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our consolidated financial statements
would be prevented or detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation
and presentation.
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness
of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)*issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
49
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 identified the following
material weakness as of December 31, 2025: insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties over
financial transaction processing and reporting. Because of this material weakness, management concluded that the Companys internal
control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2025.
**Continuing Remediation Efforts**
To remediate its internal control weakness, management
intends to implement the following measures, as the Companys resources and financial means allow:
| 
| Add additional accounting personnel or outside consultants, such as a new controller, to properly segregate duties and to effect timely,
accurate preparation of the financial statements; and | |
| 
| Complete the development of and maintain adequate written accounting policies and procedures. | |
As we are not an accelerated filer
under SEC rules, we are not required to provide an auditors attestation of managements assessment of internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2025.
**Changes in Internal Control of Financial Reporting**
During the three months ended December 31, 2025,
except as described above under Continuing Remediation Efforts, there were no changes that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
**Item 9B. Other Information.**
During the three months ended December 31, 2025,
none of our directors or officers adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading
arrangement, as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
**Item 9C. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent
Inspections.**
Not applicable.

program have to date included base salary, annual bonus opportunity and long-term equity compensation in the form of restricted stock

results. For this reason and to conserve cash and better align the interests of management and our stockholders, we emphasize long-term
performance-based equity compensation over base annual salaries.

**Director Compensation**
Effective January 30, 2023, the Company adopted a non-employee director
compensation policy (the Compensation Policy) pursuant to which each of our non-employee directors receives, upon his or
her initial election to the Board of Directors, a stock option exercisable for 2,500 shares of common stock with a per share exercise
price equal to the closing price of the common stock on the Nasdaq on the grant date. All such stock options vest in three equal annual
installments beginning on the one-year anniversary of the grant date. Under the Compensation Policy, on the first trading day of each
calendar year, each non-employee director is awarded a stock option exercisable for 600 shares of common stock, with a per share exercise
price equal to the closing price of the common stock on the Nasdaq on the grant date, which becomes exercisable in three equal annual
installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date. Additionally, pursuant to the Compensation Policy, each non-employee
director is paid an annual cash retainer of $40,000, prorated for partial years of service and paid quarterly in arrears. The Company
did not issue the annual stock option awards in January 2025 as the Board of Directors intends to update the Compensation Policy. Rather,
in 2025, each non-employee member of the Board was awarded 5,384 restricted stock units at a valuation of $18,144.
The following table sets forth information with respect to compensation

of material non-public information for the purposes of affecting the value of executive compensation. During fiscal 2025, we did not grant
any stock options (or similar awards) to any of our Named Executive Officers during any period beginning four business days before and
ending one business day after the filing of any periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, or the filing or furnishing of any Form 8-K
that disclosed any material non-public information.

days after March 24, 2025 are deemed to be beneficially owned and outstanding for purposes of calculating the number of shares and
the percentage beneficially owned by that person. However, these shares are not deemed to be beneficially owned and outstanding for
purposes of computing the percentage beneficially owned by any other person. The applicable percentages of stock outstanding as of

**Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director
Independence**
**Policy for Review of Related Person Transactions**
The Board of Directors has adopted a written policy
with regard to related person transactions, which sets forth our procedures and standards for the review, approval or ratification of
any transaction required to be reported in our filings with the SEC or in which one of our executive officers or directors has a direct
or indirect material financial interest, with limited exceptions. Our policy is that the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee
shall review the material facts of all related person transactions (as defined in the related person transaction approval policy) and
either approve or disapprove of the entry into any related person transaction. In the event that obtaining the advance approval of the
Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is not feasible, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee shall consider the related
person transaction and, if the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee determines it to be appropriate, may ratify the related person
transaction. In determining whether to approve or ratify a related person transaction, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee
will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the related person transaction is on terms comparable to those
available from an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related persons interest
in the transaction.
**Related Person Transactions**
SEC regulations define the related person
transactions that require disclosure to include any transaction, arrangement or relationship in which the amount involved exceeds
the lesser of (a) $120,000 or (b) one percent of the average of the Companys total assets at year-end for the last two
completed fiscal years in which it was or is to be a participant and in which a related person had or will have a direct or indirect
material interest. A related person is: (i) an executive officer, director or director nominee of the Company, (ii) a beneficial
owner of more than 5% of any class of the Companys voting securities, (iii)an immediate family member of an executive
officer, director or director nominee or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Companys voting securities, or
(iv) any entity that is owned or controlled by any of the foregoing persons or in which any of the foregoing persons has a
substantial ownership interest or control.
Other than as set forth below, since January
1, 2024, the Company has not participated in any such related party transaction.
On March 24, 2024, the Company entered into an
agreement for consulting services with Impact Solve, LLC (dba Impact Solutions), an accounting and chief financial officer service firm,
controlled by Richard Jacroux. Mr. Jacroux works in a part-time capacity for the Company through Impact Solutions. The Company pays Impact
Solutions a base monthly fee of $8,650 plus expenses in respect of his services to the Company, and hours worked in excess of 20 per week
are paid at a rate of $150 per hour.
In October 2025, the Company conducted a private placement offering
in which the Company sold 70,822 shares of common stock and warrants exercisable for 141,644 shares of common stock to Anthony DiGiandomenico
at a combined price of $7.06 per share and two warrants.
