In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b)
and 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we, under the supervision and with
the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design
and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the
end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were (a) designed to ensure that the information we are required to disclose
in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, and reported in an accurate manner and on a timely basis and the information
that we are required to disclose in our Exchange Act reports is accumulated and communicated to management to permit timely decisions
with respect to required disclosure and (b) operating in an effective manner.
Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change occurred in our internal
control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the year ended December 31, 2021
that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Aditxt, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying
balance sheets of Aditxt, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related statements of operations, stockholders’
equity (deficit), and cash flows, for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related notes (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, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended,
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s net losses, negative
cash flow from operations, and ability to access capital raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s
plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The 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 Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 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 Company’s 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.
/s/ dbb mckennon
We have served as the Company’s auditor
since 2018.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Company
Background
Overview
Aditxt,
Inc. (“Aditxt” or the “Company”), formerly known as Aditx Therapeutics, Inc., was incorporated in the State of
Delaware on September 28, 2017 and the Company’s headquarters are located in Richmond, VA. The Company is a biotech innovation company
with a mission of prolonging life and enhancing its quality by improving the health of the immune system.
The Company
is developing biotechnologies specifically focused on improving the health of the immune system through immune reprogramming and monitoring.
The Company’s immune reprogramming technologies are currently at the pre-clinical stage and are designed to retrain the immune system
to induce tolerance with an objective of addressing rejection of transplanted organs, autoimmune diseases, and allergies. The Company’s
immune monitoring technologies are designed to provide a personalized comprehensive profile of the immune system and the Company plans
to utilize them in its upcoming reprogramming clinical trials to monitor subjects’ immune response before, during and after drug
administration.
Offerings
On July
2, 2020, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”). In connection therewith, the Company issued 1,226,668 Units
(the “IPO Units”), at an offering price of $ 9.00 per IPO Unit, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $ 11.0 million.
The IPO Units issued in the IPO consisted of one share of common stock, one Series A warrant, and one Series B warrant. The Series A warrants
originally had an exercise price of $ 9.00 and a term of 5 years. In addition, the Company issued a Unit Purchase Option
at an exercise price of $ 11.25 per unit to the underwriters to purchase up to 67,466 units, with each unit consisting of
(i) one share of common stock and (ii) one Series A warrant. On August 19, 2020, the Company modified the exercise price of the Series
A warrants from $ 9.00 per share to $4.50 per share. The term of the Series A warrants was not modified. The Series B warrants
have an exercise price of $ 11.25 per share, a term of 5 years and contain a cashless exercise option upon certain criteria
being met.
On September
10, 2020, the Company completed a follow-on public offering (“September 2020 Offering”). In connection therewith, the Company
issued 2,400,000 Units (the “Follow-On Units”), at an offering price of $ 4.00 per Follow-On Unit, resulting
in gross proceeds of approximately $ 9.6 million. The Follow-On Units issued in the September 2020 Offering consisted of one share
of common stock (or Series A Preferred Stock for investors who would own more than 4.99 % of the Company if they invested in common
stock), one Series A-1 warrant, and one Series B-1 warrant. The Series A-1 warrants have an exercise price of $ 3.19 per share and
a term of 5 years. The Series B-1 warrants have an exercise price of $ 5.00 per share, a term of 5 years and contain
a cashless exercise option upon certain criteria being met. In addition, the Company issued a warrant to the underwriters to purchase
up to 60,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $ 5.00 per share.
On August
31, 2021, the Company completed a registered direct offering (“August 2021 Offering”). In connection therewith, the Company
issued 4,583,334 shares of common stock, at a purchase price of $ 2.40 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately
$ 11.0 million. In a concurrent private placement, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 4,583,334 shares. The warrants
have an exercise price of $ 2.53 per share and are exercisable for a five-year period commencing six months from the date
of issuance. The warrants exercise price was subsequently repriced to $ 1.50 . In addition, the Company issued a warrant to the placement
agent to purchase up to 229,166 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $ 3.00 per share.
F- 8
On October
18, 2021, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Revere Securities LLC, relating
to the public offering (the “October 2021 Offering”) of 2,833,333 shares of the Company’s common stock (the
“Shares”) by the Company. The Shares were offered, issued, and sold at a price to the public of $ 1.50 per share under
a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement filed with
the SEC on Form S-3 (File No. 333-257645), which was declared effective by the SEC on July 13, 2021. The October Offering closed on October
20, 2021 for gross proceeds of $ 4.25 million. The Company utilized a portion of the proceeds, net of underwriting discounts of approximately
$ 3.91 million from the October Offering to fund certain obligations under the Credit Agreement. (See Note 4)
On December
6, 2021, we completed an offering for net proceeds of $ 16.0 million. As part of this offering, we issued 8,246,430 units consisting of
shares of the Company’s common stock and warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock and 8,328,570 prefunded
warrants. The warrant issued as part of the units had an exercise price of $ 1.15 and the prefunded warrants had an exercise price of $ 0.001 .
Risks
and Uncertainties
The Company
has a limited operating history and is in the very early stages of generating revenue from intended operations. The Company’s business
and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide along with local, state, and federal
governmental policy decisions. A host of factors beyond the Company’s control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse
conditions may include: changes in the biotechnology regulatory environment, technological advances that render our technologies obsolete,
availability of resources for clinical trials, acceptance of technologies into the medical community, and competition from larger, more
well-funded companies. These adverse conditions could affect the Company’s financial condition and the results of its operations.
On January
30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 novel coronavirus outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International
Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the
coronavirus include restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and
businesses. The COVID-19 coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact
on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. While it is unknown
how long these conditions will last and what the financial impact will be to the Company, it is reasonably possible that future capital
raising efforts and additional development of our technologies may be negatively affected.
NOTE
2 – GOING CONCERN ANALYSIS
Management
Plans
The Company
was incorporated on September 28, 2017 and has not generated significant revenues to date. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the
Company had a net loss of $ 46,371,364 and negative cash flow from operating activities of $ 22,278,144 . During the year ended December
31, 2021, the Company raised approximately $ 35.0 million dollars through debt and equity transactions. As of December 31, 2021 the Company’s
cash balance was $ 7,872,061 . The Company has $ 67.3 remaining availability to raise future funds pursuant to an effective shelf registration
statement filed with the SEC on Form S-3 declared effective on July 13, 2021. However, factors such as stock price, volatility, trading
volume, market conditions, demand and regulatory requirements may adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise capital in an
efficient manner.
Because
of these factors, the Company believes that this creates substantial doubt with the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial
statements included in this report do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification
of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the matters discussed herein. The Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability to complete clinical studies and implement the business plan, generate sufficient
revenues and to control operating expenses. In addition, the Company is consistently focused on raising capital, strategic acquisitions
and alliances, and other initiatives to strengthen the Company.
F- 9
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The Company’s
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.
GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Use
of Estimates
The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates underlying
the financial statements include the fair value of stock options and warrants.
Fair
Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company
adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair
Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes
a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 -
Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
Level 2 -
Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 -
Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.
The Company
did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC
Topic 820.
Due to the
short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the balance sheet
dates.
Concentrations
of Credit Risk
The Company
maintains its cash accounts at financial institutions which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At times, the Company
may have deposits in excess of federally insured limits.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
Cash and
cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments.
Inventory
Inventory
consists of laboratory materials and supplies used in laboratory analysis. We capitalize inventory when purchased. Inventory is valued
at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. We periodically perform obsolescence assessments and write
off any inventory that is no longer usable.
F- 10
Fixed
Assets
Fixed assets
are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes expenditures for furniture, office equipment, laboratory equipment, and
other assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of, the
cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. The costs of
fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease life of the related assets.
Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets that have finite lives, the assets are amortized using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, the assets
are tested periodically for impairment.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management
expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral to support customer receivables. The Company
determines if receivables are past due based on days outstanding, and amounts are written off when determined to be uncollectible by management.
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts deemed necessary.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC 606 (Revenue From Contracts
with Customers), revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects
the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle,
the Company applies the following five steps:
1)
Identify the contract with a customer
2)
Identify the performance obligations in the contract
3)
Determine the transaction price
4)
Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract
5)
Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
Revenues reported from services provided by the
AditxtScore™ division are recognized when the AditxtScore™ report is delivered. The services performed include the analysis
of specimens received in Aditxt’s CLIA laboratory and the generation of results which are then delivered upon completion.
Fees per test in the client payer channel are
determined based on contractual arrangements with our customers. Generally, client revenues are recorded based on the number of AditxtScore™
reports delivered at the contractual rate per test
Offering
Costs
The Company
accounts for offering costs in accordance with ASC 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering
costs were capitalized as deferred offering costs on the balance sheet. The deferred offering costs are netted against the proceeds of
the offering in stockholders’ equity (deficit) or the related debt, as applicable. Costs related to unsuccessful offerings are expensed.
F- 11
Leases
Under Topic
842 (Leases), operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. The Company has operating leases consisting
of office space, laboratory space, and lab equipment.
Leases with
an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We combine the lease and non-lease components in determining
the lease liabilities and right of use (“ROU”) assets.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The Company
accounts for stock-based compensation costs under the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the
measurement and recognition of compensation expense related to the fair value of stock-based compensation awards that are ultimately expected
to vest. Stock-based compensation expense recognized includes the compensation cost for all stock-based payments granted to employees,
officers, and directors based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. ASC 718 is also applied
to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled during the periods reported. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the
employee’s requisite vesting period and over the nonemployee’s period of providing goods or services.
Patents
The Company
incurs fees from patent licenses, which are expensed as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the
Company incurred patent licensing fees for the patents of $ 76,455 and $ 258,635 , respectively.
Research
and Development
We incur
research and development costs during the process of researching and developing our technologies and future offerings. We expense these
costs as incurred unless such costs qualify for capitalization under applicable guidance. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and
December 31, 2020, the Company incurred research and development costs of $ 5,042,617 and $ 937,966 , respectively.
Basic
and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share
Basic loss
per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period.
Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus
the dilutive effect of shares issuable through the common stock equivalents. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2021, 2,235,466 stock options, 778,250 restricted
stock units, and 30,069,964 warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share as their effects were anti-dilutive. As
of December 31, 2020, 2,143,000 stock options and 5,799,146 warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share
as their effects were anti-dilutive.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
The FASB
issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the
original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections,
(iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.
NOTE
4 – NOTE RECEIVABLE
Cellvera
Global Note Receivable
On August
25, 2021, the Company entered into a letter of intent (“the LOI”) to acquire AiPharma Global Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company, which changed its name to Cellvera Global Holdings LLC (“Cellvera Global”) which is commercializing COVID-19
antiviral oral therapy. Key terms of the proposed transaction as stated in the Letter of Intent included: the completion of a proposed
$ 6.5 million secured loan from the Company to Cellvera Global by August 31, 2021, as well as the issuance of such number of shares
of the Company’s common stock that yields 50 % of the number of the Company’s outstanding shares post-closing of the transaction.
The acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of numerous conditions, including satisfactory due diligence, the negotiation and execution
of definitive agreements and other closing conditions, including board and shareholder approval and approval by Nasdaq of the listing
of shares proposed to be issued in the transaction. The Company and Cellvera Global agreed to an exclusivity period until September
30, 2021 (the “Exclusivity Period”), with a view to settling the definitive agreement. On September 30, 2021, the parties
entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which they agreed to extend the Exclusivity Period until October 4, 2021.
On December 28, 2021, we entered into a Share
Exchange Agreement with Cellvera Global f/k/a AiPharma Global, pursuant to which we (i) will acquire
9.5% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Cellvera Global in exchange for the issuance of 4,816,193 shares of our common
stock of Aditxt and a cash payment of $250,000, at an initial closing upon the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions to closing;
and (ii) acquire the remaining 90.5% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Cellvera Global in exchange for the issuance of
39,927,974 shares of our common stock and a cash payment of $250,000 at a secondary closing upon the satisfaction or waiver of certain
conditions to closing. Additionally, we may elect to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations.
F- 12
In connection with the contemplated
acquisition with Cellvera Global, the Company entered into a secured credit agreement dated August 27, 2021 (the “Credit
Agreement”) with Cellvera Global and certain affiliated entities, pursuant to which the Company made a secured loan to Cellvera
Global in the principal amount of $ 6.5 million (the “Loan”). The Loan was funded on August 31, 2021, following the closing
of the Company’s August 2021 Offering. The Loan bears interest at a rate of 8 % per annum and matured on November 30, 2021 or
upon such earlier date as the Letter of Intent or Exclusivity Period is terminated in accordance with the terms thereof. The Loan is secured
by certain accounts receivable and other assets of Cellvera Global and certain of its affiliates. The Credit Agreement also contains certain

NOTE
9 – CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE
On January
25, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional accredited investor (the “Investor”)
for the offering, sale, and issuance of a $ 6,000,000 Senior Convertible Promissory Note (the “January 2021 Securities Purchase
Agreement, or the Convertible Note”). The Convertible Note had a twenty-four-month term and was convertible at the option of the
Investor at any time prior to maturity in shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $ 4.00 per share. Pursuant to the
January 2021 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued a warrant to the Investor to purchase up to 800,000 shares
of the Company’s common stock. The warrant is immediately exercisable for a period of three (3) years at an
exercise price of $ 4.00 per share, subject to adjustment. An additional 75,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s
common stock was also issued to the underwriters. These underwriter warrants are immediately exercisable for a period of five (5) years at
an exercise price of $ 4.00 per share, subject to adjustment. The Convertible Note had an original issuance discount of $ 1,000,000 .
The Company also recognized an additional discount of $ 526,460 from the issuance costs of the debt, $ 1,322,840 from the relative
fair value of the warrants issued to the Investor, and $ 231,316 from the fair value of warrants issued to the underwriters. The total
debt discount from these items was $ 3,080,616 which would have been amortized over the life of the Convertible Note. Repayment of
the Convertible Note’s principal amount would occur in nineteen monthly cash or common stock payments beginning in July 2021. The
Convertible Note could have been prepaid by the Company at any time without penalty at 105 % of the then outstanding principal amount
due under the Convertible Note.
On August
25, 2021, commensurate with the August 2021 Offering of securities described in Note 1, the exercise price of the warrants was reset based
on the sale of securities at a lesser price than the original strike price of the warrants. The reset provision was partially waived at
the time and formally waived based on the defeasance and waiver agreement on August 30, 2021, described below. The reset provision resulted
in a warrant reset adjustment for $ 102,267 and recorded as an decrease to accumulated deficit and an increase to additional
paid-in-capital.
F- 15
On August
30, 2021, the Company entered into a defeasance and waiver agreement with the holder (the “Noteholder”) of the Convertible
Note pursuant to which the Noteholder has agreed in exchange for (a) a cash payment by the Company to the Convertible Noteholder of $ 1.2 million,
(b) a waiver, in part, of the conversion price adjustment provision such that the January 2021 Note shall be convertible into 4,802,497 shares
of common stock (without giving effect to the conversion notices received by the Company from the Noteholder prior to the date hereof
totaling 1,005,748 shares) and (c) a voluntary and permanent reduction by the Company of the exercise price of the warrant to
purchase 800,000 shares of common stock of the Company to $ 2.53 per share. As a result of the modification of the debt
terms, the Company determined that an extinguishment of the debt occurred and recorded a loss on extinguishment of the debt in the amount
of $ 2,500,970 for the year ended December 31, 2021.
NOTE 10 – LEASES
Our lease
agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate; therefore, an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based
on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments. We used the incremental
borrowing rate on December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 for all leases that commenced prior to that date. In determining this rate,
which is used to determine the present value of future lease payments, we estimate the rate of interest we would pay on a collateralized
basis, with similar payment terms as the lease and in a similar economic environment.

The 2021 Plan provides for grants of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock
and restricted stock units, and other stock-based awards (collectively, the “Awards”). Eligible recipients of Awards include
employees, directors or independent contractors of the Company or any affiliate of the Company. The Compensation Committee of the Board

$ 1,668,997 .
For the
years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair value of each option granted was estimated using the assumption ranges and/or
factors in the Black-Scholes Model as follows:
Exercise price
$ 0.68 - 9.00
Expected dividend yield
0 %
Risk free interest rate
0.28 %- 1.41 %
Expected life in years
5.00 - 10.00
Expected volatility
144 - 151 %
The expected
term of employee stock options is calculated using the simplified method which takes into consideration the contractual life and vesting
terms of the options. The simplified method was used by the Company due to insufficient historical data.
The risk-free interest rate assumption for options
granted is based upon observed interest rates on the United States Government Bond Equivalent Yield appropriate for the expected term
of warrants.
The Company
determined the expected volatility assumption for warrants granted using the historical volatility of comparable public companies’
common stock. The Company will continue to monitor peer companies and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future
warrant grants, until such time that the Company’s common stock has enough market history to use historical volatility.
The dividend
yield assumption for warrants granted is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never
declared nor paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable
future.
The Company
recognizes forfeitures as they occur as there is insufficient historical data to accurately determine future forfeitures rates.

NOTE
12 – INCOME TAXES
For the years ended December 31, 2021 and
2020, the Company did not record a current or deferred income tax expense or benefit due to current and historical losses incurred by
the Company. The Company’s losses before income taxes consist solely of losses from domestic operations.
On March 27, 2020, the United States enacted the
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The Cares Act includes provisions relating to refundable
payroll tax credits, deferment of the employer portion of certain payroll taxes, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum
tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for
qualified improvement property. The CARES Act also established a Paycheck Protection Program whereby certain small businesses are eligible
for a loan to fund payroll expenses, rent, and related costs.
The Company considered the provisions under the
CARES Act and elected not to take advantage of the provisions of CARES Act as the effect of such provisions was not expected to have a
material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial statements.
A reconciliation of income tax expense (benefit)
computed at the statutory federal income tax rate to income taxes as reflected in the financial statements is as follows:

The Company has evaluated the positive and negative
evidence bearing upon its ability to realize its deferred tax assets, which are comprised primarily of net operating loss carryforwards
and tax credits. Management has considered the Company’s history of cumulative net losses in the United States, estimated future
taxable income and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies and has concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will
not realize the benefits of its U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been established
against these net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company reevaluates the positive and negative
evidence at each reporting period. The Company’s valuation allowance increased during 2021 by approximately $ 10.6 million primarily
due to the generation of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, impairment of note receivable, and stock-based compensation.
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company
had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of $ 38.0 million and $ 12.6 million, respectively, which may be available to offset
future income tax liabilities. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (” TCJA”) will generally allow losses incurred after 2017 to
be carried over indefinitely, but will generally limit the net operating loss deduction to the lesser of the net operating loss carryover
or 80 % of a corporation’s taxable income (subject to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended). Also, there
will be no carryback for losses incurred after 2017. Losses incurred prior to 2018 will generally be deductible to the extent of the lesser
of a corporation’s net operating loss carryover or 100 % of a corporation’s taxable income and be available for twenty years
from the period the loss was generated. The Company has federal net operating losses generated following 2017 of $ 37.9 million, which
do not expire. The federal net operating losses generated prior to 2018 of $ 0.1 million will expire at various dates through 2037. The
CARES Act temporarily allows the Company to carryback net operating losses arising in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to the five prior tax years.
In addition, net operating losses generated in these years could fully offset prior year taxable income without the 80 % of the taxable
income limitation under the TCJA which was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Company has been generating losses since its inception, as
such the net operating loss carryback provision under the CARES Act is not applicable to the Company.
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company
also had U.S. state net operating loss carryforwards of $ 44.8 million and $ 15.2 million, respectively, which may be available to
offset future income tax liabilities and expire at various dates through 2041.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company had
no federal tax credit carryforwards available to reduce future tax liabilities. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had federal
tax credit carryforwards of approximately $ 0.1 million, available to reduce future tax liabilities which expire at various dates through
2040. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had state research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately
$ 0.2 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively, which may be available to reduce future tax liabilities and can be carried over indefinitely.
Utilization of the U.S. federal and state net
operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation under Section 382
and Section 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and corresponding provisions of state law, due to ownership changes
that have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. These ownership changes may limit the amount of net operating loss and
research and development credit carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax liabilities, respectively.
The Company has not completed a study to assess whether a change of ownership has occurred, or whether there have been multiple ownership
changes since its formation. Any limitation may result in expiration of a portion of the net operating loss carryforwards or research
and development tax credit carryforwards before utilization.
F- 22
The Company has not, as of yet, conducted a study
of research and development tax credit carryforwards. Such a study, once undertaken by the Company, may result in an adjustment to the
research and development tax credit carryforwards; however, a full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s research
and development tax credits and, if an adjustment is required, this adjustment would be offset by an adjustment to the valuation allowance.
Thus, there would be no impact to the balance sheet or statement of operations if an adjustment is required.
The Company files tax returns in the United States,
California, Virginia, and New York. The Company is subject to U.S. federal and state tax examinations by tax authorities for the tax years
ended December 31, 2018 through present. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has recorded no liability for unrecognized
tax benefits, interest, or penalties related to federal and state income tax matters and there currently no pending tax examinations.
The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.
NOTE
13 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC Notification:
On January 18, 2022, the Company was notified
(the “Notification Letter”) by The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) that it is not in compliance with the minimum
bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing
Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $ 1.00 per share, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides
that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days.
Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock between December 1, 2021 and January 14, 2022, the Company no longer
met the minimum bid price requirement. The Notification Letter had no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s
common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market and, at the time, the common stock continued to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the
symbol “ADTX.”
The Notification Letter provided the Company has
180 calendar days, or until July 18, 2022, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). To regain compliance, the bid price
of the Company’s common stock must have a closing bid price of at least $ 1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days.
If the Company does not regain compliance by July 18, 2022, an additional 180 days may be granted to regain compliance, so long as the
Company meets The Nasdaq Capital Market continued listing requirements (except for the bid price requirement) and notifies Nasdaq in writing
of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period. If the Company does not qualify for the second compliance
period or fails to regain compliance during the second 180-day period, then Nasdaq will notify the Company of its determination to delist
the Company’s common stock, at which point the Company will have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.
The Company intends to monitor the closing bid
price of its common stock and will consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement
under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.
RSU Grant:
On January 28, 2022, the Compensation Committee
approved the grant of 482,700 RSUs to employees pursuant to the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. Included in this grant were
480,000 RSUs granted to officers of the Company.
Forbearance Agreement:
On January 31, 2022, the Company’s $ 14.5
million loan to Cellvera Global became fully due and payable under the Credit Agreement. On February 14, 2022, the Company entered into
a Forbearance Agreement and Seventh Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with Cellvera Global.
Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the Company
agreed to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies against the Cellvera Global (the “Borrower”) and certain affiliated
guarantor parties until the earlier of (i) June 30, 2022 or (ii) the date of occurrence of any event of default under the Forbearance
Agreement (the “Forbearance Period”). Given that the parties continue to conduct due diligence in connection with that certain
Share Exchange Agreement dated as of December 28, 2021 by and between the Company and Cellvera Global (the “Share Exchange Agreement”),
the Company and the Borrower also agreed that should the initial closing occur under the Share Exchange Agreement, the existing event
of default will be waived. Under the Forbearance Agreement, the Company and the Borrower also agreed to certain amendments to the Credit
Agreement, including, but not limited to: (i) the delivery by the Borrower of certain financial statements and forecasts, and (ii) certain
regularly scheduled payments to be made by Borrower to the Company during the Forbearance Period. As of the date these financial statements
were available to be issued; the regularly scheduled payments under the Forbearance Agreement were not made. (see Note 4)
