NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION, LIQUIDITY, AND BUSINESS
Corporate
History
BioRestorative
Therapies, Inc. has one wholly-owned subsidiary, Stem Pearls, LLC (“Stem Pearls”). BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. and its
subsidiary are referred to collectively as “BRT” or the “Company”.
On
October 27, 2021, the Company effected a 1-for-4,000 reverse stock split of its common stock. The Company has retroactively applied the
reverse stock split made effective on October 27, 2021 to share and per share amounts on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. In connection with the reverse stock split, the Company’s authorized
number of shares of common stock was reduced from 300,000,000,000 to 75,000,000 . The Company’s authorized number of shares of preferred
stock was not affected by the reverse stock split.
On
November 9, 2021, the Company completed a $ 23,000,000 underwritten public offering of units of securities pursuant to which an aggregate
of 2,300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 2,645,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock were issued. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering as follows: (i) undertaking of clinical trials
with respect to BRTX-100 and its related collection and delivery procedure; (ii) pre-clinical research and development with respect to
the Company’s ThermoStem Program; and (iii) for general corporate and working capital purposes. In connection with the public offering,
the Company’s common stock was listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
Nature
of the Business
BRT
develops therapeutic products and medical therapies using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult stem cells. BRT’s
website is at www.biorestorative.com. BRT is currently developing a Disc/Spine Program referred to as “brtxDISC”. Its lead
cell therapy candidate, BRTX-100 , is a product formulated from autologous (or a person’s own) cultured mesenchymal stem
cells collected from the patient’s bone marrow. The product is intended to be used for the non-surgical treatment of painful lumbosacral
disc disorders or as a complimentary therapeutic to a surgical procedure. BRT is also engaging in research efforts with respect to a
platform technology utilizing brown adipose (fat) for therapeutic purposes to treat type 2 diabetes, obesity and other metabolic disorders
and has labeled this initiative its ThermoStem Program. Further, BRT has licensed a patented curved needle device that is a needle system
designed to deliver cells and/or other therapeutic products or material to the spine and discs or other potential sites.
Liquidity
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as
a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and satisfying liabilities in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2022,
the Company had an accumulated deficit of $ 143.6 million and a working capital surplus of $ 17.7 million. For the six months ended June
30, 2022, the Company had a net loss of $ 9.5 million (of which, $ 6.5 million was attributable to non-cash stock-based compensation) and
negative cash flows from operations of $ 2.8 million. The Company’s operating activities consume the majority of its cash resources.
The Company anticipates that it will continue to incur net losses as it executes its development plans for 2022 and beyond, as well as
other potential strategic and business development initiatives. In addition, the Company has had and expects to have negative cash flows
from operations, at least into the near future. The Company has previously funded, and plans to continue funding, these losses primarily
through current cash on hand and additional infusions of cash from equity and debt financing.
The
Company believes that it has been able to mitigate the above factors with regard to its ability to continue as a going concern as a result
of its November 9, 2021, public offering pursuant to which the Company received net proceeds of approximately $ 21.1 million. As a result
of the above, and cash on hand as of June 30, 2022, the Company believes it has sufficient cash to fund operations for the twelve months
subsequent to the filing date.
7
Current
funds noted above will not be sufficient to enable the Company to fully complete its development activities or attain profitable operations.
If the Company is unable to obtain such needed additional financing on a timely basis, the Company may have to curtail its development,
marketing and promotional activities, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition
and results of operations, and ultimately the Company could be forced to discontinue its operations and liquidate.
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern and the
realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement
values. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial information as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021
has been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, such financial information includes all adjustments (consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position at such dates
and the operating results and cash flows for such periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year or for any other subsequent interim period.
Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant
to the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2022.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity-based transactions, revenue and expenses and disclosure
of contingent liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company bases its estimates and
assumptions on historical experience, known or expected trends and various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable. As future
events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates which may cause the Company’s
future results to be affected.
The
Company believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation
of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include the carrying value of intangible
assets, deferred tax asset and valuation allowance, and assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model, such as expected
volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected divided rate.
Revenue
The
Company derives all of its revenue pursuant to a license agreement between the Company and a stem cell treatment company (“SCTC”)
entered into in January 2012 and amended in November 2015. Pursuant to the license agreement, the SCTC granted to the Company a license
to use certain intellectual property related to, among other things, stem cell disc procedures, and the Company has granted to the SCTC
a sublicense to use, and the right to sublicense to third parties the right to use, in certain locations in the United States and the
Cayman Islands, certain of the licensed intellectual property. In consideration of the sublicenses, the SCTC has agreed to pay the Company
royalties on a per disc procedure basis.
8
The
Company’s contracted transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or
as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation with a fixed determinable
contract value. The Company’s performance obligation is satisfied upon the transfer of risk of loss to the customer. All sales
have fixed pricing and there are currently no variable components included in the Company’s revenue. The timing of the Company’s
revenue recognition may differ from the timing of receiving royalty payments. A receivable is recorded when revenue is recognized prior
to receipt of a royalty payment and the Company has an unconditional right to the royalty payment. Alternatively, when a royalty payment
precedes the provision of the related services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $ 71,100 and $ 15,000 , respectively, of revenue related to
the Company’s sublicenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $ 87,100 and $ 33,000 , respectively,
of revenue related to the Company’s sublicenses.
Contract
Modifications
There
were no contract modifications during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Contract modifications are not routine in the performance
of the Company’s contracts.
Cash
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents held at financial institutions may at times exceed insured amounts. The
Company believes it mitigates such risk by investing in or through, as well as maintaining cash balances with, major financial institutions.
There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. The Company periodically
assesses its accounts receivable and other receivables for collectability on a specific identification basis. The Company provides for
allowances for doubtful accounts based on management’s estimate of uncollectible amounts considering age, collection history, and
any other factors considered appropriate. Payments are generally due within 30 days of invoice. The Company writes off accounts receivable
against the allowance for doubtful accounts when a balance is determined to be uncollectible. The Company had no balances related to
allowances for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related
assets, generally 3 – 15 years . Expenditures that enhance the useful lives of assets are capitalized and depreciated over the remainder
of the useful life. Computer equipment costs are capitalized as incurred and depreciated on a straight-line basis over a range of 3 –
5 years.
Leasehold
improvements are amortized over the lesser of (i) the useful life of the asset or (ii) the remaining lease term. Maintenance and repairs
are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes costs attributable to the betterment of property and equipment when such betterment
enhances the functionality of the asset or extends the useful life of the asset. Should an asset be disposed of before the end of its
useful life, the cost and accumulated depreciation at that date are removed from the consolidated balance sheets, with the resulting
gain or loss, if any, reflected in operations in that period.
9
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
The
Company reviews long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the carrying
amount to the forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operation to which the assets relate. If the operation is determined to be
unable to recover the carrying amount of its assets, then these assets are written down to fair value first, followed by other long-lived
assets of the operation. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending on the nature of the
assets. There are no impairment charges for all periods presented.
Intangible
Assets
The
Company records its intangible assets at cost, for those intangible assets not acquired in a business combination, in accordance with
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other . Definite-lived intangible assets
are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life, which is determined by either the term of the underlying
agreement they related to or identifying the period over which the cash flows from the asset are expected to be generated.
Advertising
and Marketing Costs
The
Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as they are incurred. Advertising and marketing expenses were $ 245 and $ 6,220 for the
three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Advertising and marketing expenses were $ 714 and $ 8,820 for the six months ended
June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Advertising and marketing expenses are recorded in marketing and promotion on the unaudited condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
Fair
Value Measurements
As
defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), fair value is the price that would be received
for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price).
The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions
about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated,
or generally unobservable. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy
gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and
the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement). This fair value measurement framework applies at both initial and subsequent
measurement.
Level
1:
Quoted
prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in
which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing
basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed
equities.
Level
2:
Pricing
inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as
of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.
These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities,
time value, volatility factors and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant
economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument,
can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.
Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options
and collars.
Level
3:
Pricing
inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally-developed
methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximate their fair
values based on the short duration of these instruments.
10
Net
Loss per Common Share
Net
loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
All vested outstanding options and warrants are considered potential common stock. The dilutive effect, if any, of stock options, warrants,
and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) are calculated using the treasury stock method. All outstanding convertible notes are
considered common stock at the beginning of the period or at the time of issuance, if later, pursuant to the if-converted method. Since
the effect of common stock equivalents is anti-dilutive with respect to losses, options, warrants, RSUs and convertible notes have been
excluded from the Company’s computation of net loss per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
The
following table summarizes the securities that were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation:

As
of June 30, 2021, all of the convertible notes had variable conversion prices and the shares issuable were estimated based on the
market conditions. Pursuant to the note agreements, there were 12,876,003 shares of common stock reserved for future note conversions
as of June 30, 2021.
Stock-based
Compensation
The
Company applies the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which requires the measurement
and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees, including employee stock options, in the condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
For
stock options issued to employees and members of the board of directors for their services, the Company estimates the grant date fair
value of each option using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management
to make assumptions with respect to the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the common stock consistent with the
expected life of the option, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend yields of the common stock. For awards subject to service-based
vesting conditions, including those with a graded vesting schedule, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense equal to
the grant date fair value of stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting
term. Forfeitures are recorded as they are incurred as opposed to being estimated at the time of grant and revised.
11
Pursuant
to Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07 Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee
Share-Based Payment Accounting, the Company accounts for stock options issued to non-employees for their services in accordance with
ASC 718. The Company uses valuation methods and assumptions to value the stock options that are consistent with the process for valuing
employee stock options noted above.
Grant
income
Funding
received under research grants for reimbursement of research and development expenses is recorded as grant income in the other (income)
expense section of the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method which requires the recognition of deferred income tax assets
and liabilities related to the expected future tax consequences arising from temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax
bases of assets and liabilities based on enacted statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the temporary differences are
expected to reverse. Any effects of changes in income tax rates or laws are included in income tax expense in the period of enactment.
The
Company records valuation allowances against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred
tax asset will not be realized. The Company routinely evaluates the realizability of deferred tax assets by assessing the likelihood
that deferred tax assets will be recovered based on all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred
tax liabilities, estimates of future taxable income, tax planning strategies and results of operations. Estimating future taxable income
is inherently uncertain and requires judgment. In projecting future taxable income, historical results are considered along with certain
assumptions related to future earnings. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a full valuation allowance applied against
its deferred tax assets.
From
time to time the Company may recognize an income tax benefit, in its consolidated statements of operations, related to uncertain tax
positions taken. For uncertain tax positions that are “more likely than not” to sustain an income tax audit, the Company
may record an allowance against certain deferred tax assets related to these positions. The Company’s practice is to recognize
interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements
of operations.
Leases
A
lease is defined as an agreement that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment (right of use asset
or “ROU asset”) for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company accounts for it leases in accordance with
ASC 842, Leases, which requires that an ROU asset identified in a lease to be recorded as a noncurrent asset with a related liability.
The Company does not record ROU assets for those agreements of a twelve-month duration or less. The Company recognized a ROU asset and
corresponding lease liability on its balance sheets related to its office lease agreement. See Note 8 - Leases for further discussion,
including the impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.
ROU
assets include any initial direct costs and prepaid lease payments and exclude any lease incentives. Lease expense for minimum lease
payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease
if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.
Research
and Development Expenses
Research and development
expenses are expensed as incurred and recorded as a component of operating expenses in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements
of Operations.

NOTE
3 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The
Company is a party to a license agreement with the SCTC (as amended) (the “SCTC Agreement”). Pursuant to the SCTC Agreement,
the Company obtained, among other things, a worldwide (excluding Asia and Argentina), exclusive, royalty-bearing license from the SCTC
to utilize or sublicense a certain method for culturing cells and a worldwide, exclusive, royalty-bearing license from the SCTC to utilize
or sublicense a certain medical device patent for the administration of specific cells and/or cell products to the disc and/or spine
(and other parts of the body). Pursuant to the license agreement with the SCTC, certain performance milestones (or payouts in lieu of
performance milestones) had to be satisfied in order for the Company to maintain its exclusive rights with regard to the disc/spine technology
(subject to the SCTC’s compliance with its obligations under the SCTC Agreement). The Company did not timely satisfy the third
of these performance milestones (which needed to be satisfied by February 2022). Accordingly, such rights may currently be non-exclusive.
The Company and the SCTC are currently negotiating the terms of an agreement confirming the exclusive nature of the license. No assurance
can be given in this regard. In February 2017, the Company received authorization from the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”)
to proceed with a Phase 2 clinical trial. The Company has commenced such clinical trial. In March 2022, a United States patent relating
to the Company’s BRTX-100 clinical program was issued. The patent along with the license agreement gave rise to definite lived
intangible assets. The below table details the activity related to those intangible assets from January 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022:

NOTE
6 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT)
Series
A Preferred
On
November 8, 2021, in connection with the Company’s public offering, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted a resolution
allowing for the authorization of and issuance of 1,543,458 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, $ .01 par value per share,
designated as Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A”). The Series A has a liquidation preference of $ 0.001 per share.
Dividends
Series
A holders shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends on an equivalent basis without preference
with the holders of the shares of the Company’s common stock based upon the number of shares of common stock into which the Series
A is then convertible.
Voting
Rights
Series
A holders shall be entitled to vote on all matters presented to the stockholders of the Company and shall be entitled to such number
of votes that equal the number of shares of common stock into which each share of Series A held may be converted; provided, however,
that in no event shall a Series A holder be entitled to vote more than 4.99 % of the then outstanding shares of common stock.
Conversion
Optional
Conversion - Each share of Series A shall be convertible, at any time, at the option of the Series A holder, into one share of common
stock; provided, however, that in no event shall a Series A holder be entitled to convert any shares of Series A to the extent that such
conversion would result in beneficial ownership by the Series A holder of more than 4.99 % of the outstanding shares of common stock.
Automatic
Conversion – If an event occurs which has the effect of reducing a Series A holder’s beneficial ownership of shares of common
stock to less than 4.5 % of the then publicly disclosed outstanding shares of common stock, then, within five business days thereafter,
the Series A holder shall provide notice to the Company to such effect. Such notice shall have the effect of a notice of conversion such
that the Series A holder’s post-conversion ownership of common stock will be 4.99 % of the then publicly disclosed outstanding shares
of common stock.
14
2021
Stock Incentive Plan
On
March 18, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2021
Plan”). Pursuant to the 2021 Plan, a total of 1,175,000 shares of common stock are authorized to be issued pursuant to the grant
of stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and other incentive awards. As of June 30, 2022,
based on stock options and restricted stock units currently outstanding under the 2021 Plan, no shares remain available for future grants
under the 2021 Plan.
Warrant
and Option Valuation
The
Company has computed the fair value of warrants and options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected term used
for warrants and options issued to non-employees is the contractual life and the expected term used for options issued to employees and
directors is the estimated period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company utilizes the “simplified”
method to develop an estimate of the expected term of “plain vanilla” employee option grants. The Company is utilizing an
expected volatility figure based on a review of the historical volatilities, over a period of time equivalent to the expected life of
the instrument being valued, of similarly positioned public companies within its industry. The risk-free interest rate was determined
from the implied yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term consistent with the expected term of the instrument
being valued.

ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Note
Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect management’s current views with respect
to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking
statements are projections in respect of future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking
statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,”
“believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative
of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements include statements regarding the
intent, belief or current expectations of us and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements
are based. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and
involve risk and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements.
These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks
set forth in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
– Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2021, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2022, any of which
may cause our company’s or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially
different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements.
These risks and factors include, by way of example and without limitation:
● our
ability to obtain financing needed to complete our clinical trials and implement our business
plan;
● our
ability to successfully develop and commercialize BRTX-100, our lead product candidate for
the treatment of chronic lumbar disc disease, as well as our metabolic ThermoStem Program;
● our
possible lack of exclusive rights with regard to our licensed technology;
● our
ability to protect our proprietary rights;
● our
ability to achieve and sustain profitability of the existing lines of business;
● our
ability to attract and retain world-class research and development talent;
● our
ability to attract and retain key science, technology and management personnel and to expand
our management team;
● the
accuracy of estimates regarding expenses, future revenue, capital requirements, profitability,
and needs for additional financing;
● business
interruptions resulting from geo-political actions, including war and terrorism or disease
outbreaks (such as the recent outbreak of COVID-19);
● our
ability to attract and retain customers; and
● our
ability to navigate through the increasingly complex therapeutic regulatory environment.
Although
we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels
of activity or performance. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend
to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Readers
are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports filed with the
SEC. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated
events or changes in the future operating results over time, except as required by law. We believe that our assumptions are based upon
reasonable data derived from and known about our business and operations. No assurances are made that actual results of operations or
the results of our future activities will not differ materially from our assumptions.
As
used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and unless otherwise indicated, the terms “Company,” “we,” “us”
and “our” refer to BioRestorative Therapies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Stem Pearls,
LLC, a New York limited liability company. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars.

Corporate
History
Our
offices are located in Melville, New York where we have established a laboratory facility in order to increase our capabilities for the
further development of possible cellular-based treatments, products and protocols, stem cell-related intellectual property and translational
research applications.
As
of June 30, 2022, our accumulated deficit was $143.6 million. We have historically only generated a modest amount of revenue, and our
losses have principally been operating expenses incurred in research and development, non-cash expenses such as stock-based compensation,
plus costs associated with meeting the requirements of being a public company. We expect to continue to incur substantial costs for these
activities over at least the next year.
Business
Overview
We
develop therapeutic products and medical therapies using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult (non-embryonic) stem cells.
We are currently pursuing our Disc/Spine Program with our initial investigational therapeutic product being called BRTX-100 .
In March 2022, a United States patent issued in our Disc/Spine Program . We submitted an IND application to the FDA to obtain authorization
to commence a Phase 2 clinical trial investigating the use of BRTX-100 , our lead cell therapy candidate, in the treatment of chronic
lower back pain arising from degenerative disc disease. We have received such authorization from the FDA and have commenced such clinical
trial through the execution of a CRO agreement with PRC Clinical, the execution of clinical trial agreements, the enrollment of patients
in the clinical trials, the purchase of manufacturing equipment, the expansion of our laboratory to include capabilities for clinical
production and the certification of our clinical grade cell therapy manufacturing facility. We have obtained a license to use technology
for investigational adult stem cell treatment of disc and spine conditions, including protruding and bulging lumbar discs. The technology
is an advanced stem cell injection procedure that may offer relief from lower back pain, buttock and leg pain, and numbness and tingling
in the leg and foot. We are also developing our ThermoStem Program . This pre-clinical program involves the use of brown adipose
(fat) in connection with the cell-based treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity as well as hypertension, other metabolic disorders and
cardiac deficiencies. United States patents related to the ThermoStem Program were issued in September 2015, January 2019, March
2020, March 2021, and July 2021; Australian patents related to the ThermoStem Program were issued in April 2017, October 2019
and August 2021; Japanese patents related to the ThermoStem Program were issued in December 2017, June 2021, and February 2022;
Israeli patents related to our ThermoStem Program were issued in October 2019, May 2020, and March 2022; and European patents
related to the ThermoStem Program were issued in April 2020 and January 2021.
We
have licensed a patented curved needle device that is a needle system designed to deliver cells and/or other therapeutic products or
materials to the spine and discs or other potential sites. We anticipate that FDA approval or clearance will be necessary for this device
prior to commercialization. We do not intend to utilize this device in connection with our contemplated Phase 2 clinical trial with regard
to BRTX-100 .
Revenue
We
derived all of our revenue pursuant to a license agreement with the SCTC entered into in January 2012, as amended in November 2015. Pursuant
to the license agreement, the SCTC granted to us a license to use certain intellectual property related to, among other things, stem
cell disc procedures and we have granted to the SCTC a sublicense to use, and the right to sublicense to third parties the right to use,
in certain locations in the United States and the Cayman Islands, certain of the licensed intellectual property. In consideration of
the sublicenses, the SCTC has agreed to pay us royalties on a per disc procedure basis.

Revenues
For
the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we generated $71,000 and $15,000, respectively, of royalty revenue in connection with
our sublicense agreement. We do not expect that such increased level of revenues related to this agreement will continue in future periods.
Marketing
and Promotion
Marketing
and promotion expenses include advertising and promotion, marketing and seminars, meals, entertainment and travel expenses. For the three
months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, marketing and promotion expenses were insignificant. Marketing and promotion expenses for the prior
year period included expenditures related to an advertising consulting agreement which was no longer in effect during 2022.
Consulting
Consulting
expenses consist of consulting fees and stock-based compensation to consultants. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, consulting
expenses increased by $33,802, from $1,648 to $35,450, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to stock-based
compensation of $23,210 issued to consultants during the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Research
and Development
Research
and development expenses include cash and non-cash compensation of (a) our Vice President of Research and Development; (b) our Scientific
Advisory Board members; and (c) laboratory staff and costs related to our brown fat and disc/spine initiatives. For the three months
ended June 30, 2022, research and development expenses increased by $914,326, or 568%, from $160,898 to $1,075,224, as compared to the
three months ended June 30, 2021, as we recommenced our research and development initiatives, including the engagement of PRC Clinical
to serve as our CRO in connection with our clinical trials, following the completion of our public offering of common stock and warrants
in November 2021.
21
We
expect that our higher level of research and development expenses will continue in subsequent fiscal periods.
General
and Administrative
General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, bonuses, payroll taxes, severance costs and stock-based compensation to employees
(excluding any cash or non-cash compensation of our Vice President of Research and Development and our laboratory staff), as well as
corporate expenses such as legal and professional fees, investor relations and occupancy-related expenses. For the three months ended
June 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million, or 6%, from $3.4 million to $3.6 million, as compared to
the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation related to various consultants
and executives during three months ended June 30, 2022.
We
expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase as we expand our staff, develop our infrastructure, and incur additional
costs to support the growth of our business.
Interest
expense
For
the three months ended June 30, 2022, interest expense decreased $460,719, or 91%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.
The decrease was due to the exchange of our outstanding interest-bearing convertible debt for common and preferred shares and warrants
in connection with our public offering in November 2021.

Revenues
For
the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we generated $87,100 and $33,000, respectively, of royalty revenue in connection with our
sublicense agreement. We do not expect that such increased level of revenues related to this agreement will continue in future periods.
Marketing
and Promotion
Marketing
and promotion expenses include advertising and promotion, marketing and seminars, meals, entertainment and travel expenses. For the six
months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, marketing and promotion expenses were insignificant.
We
expect that marketing and promotion expenses will increase in the future as we increase our marketing activities following full commercialization
of our products and services.
Consulting
Consulting
expenses consist of consulting fees and stock-based compensation to consultants. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, consulting expenses
increased by $111,484, from $10,037 to $121,521, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to stock-based compensation
of $96,030 issued to consultants who provided public relations services during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Research
and Development
Research
and development expenses include cash and non-cash compensation of (a) our Vice President of Research and Development; (b) our Scientific
Advisory Board members; and (c) laboratory staff and costs related to our brown fat and disc/spine initiatives. For the six months ended
June 30, 2022, research and development expenses increased by $1,524,409, or 467%, from $326,152 to $1,850,561, as compared to the six
months ended June 30, 2021, as we recommenced our research and development initiatives, including the engagement of PRC Clinical to serve
as our CRO in connection with our clinical trials, following the completion of our public offering of common stock and warrants in November
2021.
We
expect that our higher level of research and development expenses will continue in subsequent fiscal periods.
General
and Administrative
General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, bonuses, payroll taxes, severance costs and stock-based compensation to employees
(excluding any cash or non-cash compensation of our Vice President of Research and Development and our laboratory staff), as well as
corporate expenses such as legal and professional fees, investor relations and occupancy-related expenses. For the six months ended June
30, 2022, general and administrative expenses decreased by $10.5 million, or 57%, from $18.3 million to $7.8 million, as compared to
the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease of approximately $10.5 million in stock-based compensation
during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to June 30, 2021, which related to grants issued to our executives.
We
expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase as we expand our staff, develop our infrastructure, and incur additional
costs to support the growth of our business.
Interest
expense
For
the six months ended June 30, 2022, interest expense decreased $1,030,382, or 93%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.
The decrease was due to the exchange of our outstanding convertible debt for common and preferred shares and warrants in connection with
our public offering in November 2021.
Gain
on PPP loan forgiveness
Under
the terms of the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), our $250,000 PPP loan was
forgiven during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
23
Grant
income
Grant
income of $16,654 during the six months ended June 30, 2022 consists of funding received under a $256,000 National Institutes of Health
Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase 1 grant, which we were awarded in September 2021.

Availability
of Additional Funds
Based
upon our accumulated deficit of $143,637,519 as of June 30, 2022, along with our forecast for continued operating losses and our need
for financing to fund our contemplated clinical trials, we will eventually require additional equity and/or debt financing to continue
our operations. However, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to continue our operations for the next twelve months from the date
of this report.
Our
operating needs include the planned costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund our clinical trials, working capital
and capital expenditures. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including
our ability to successfully commercialize our products and services, competing technological and market developments, and the need to
enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement our product and service
offerings.
We
may be unable to raise sufficient additional capital when we need it or raise capital on favorable terms. Future financing may require
us to pledge certain assets and enter into covenants that could restrict certain business activities or our ability to incur further
indebtedness and may contain other terms that are not favorable to our stockholders or us. If we are unable to obtain adequate funds
on reasonable terms, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds by entering into financing
agreements on unattractive terms.
Cash
Flows
During
the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, our sources and uses of cash were as follows:

significant accounting policies are fully described in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included
herein for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, and in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2022 (“Annual Report”). At June
30, 2022, t here were no changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as disclosed

Item
3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We
are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and as such are not required to provide the information
under this item.
Item
4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and
forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing disclosure controls and procedures,
our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls
and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood
of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future
conditions. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance
of achieving the desired control objectives.
Under
the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer,
we are required to perform an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the
Exchange Act. As of June 30, 2022 our management has completed their evaluation and has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were not effective, as a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, and thus that there
remains a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s interim financial statements will not be prevented
or detected on a timely basis. Our assessment of internal controls over financial reporting does not include an evaluation by the Company’s
registered public accounting firm.
25
Material
Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management
assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the quarter ended June 30, 2022 based
on the framework established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations
of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting as of June 30, 2022 was not effective.
A
material weakness, as defined in the standards established by the Sarbanes-Oxley, 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 consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The
ineffectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was due to the following material weaknesses:
●
Lack of adherence to formal policies and procedures;
●
Lack of risk assessment procedures on internal controls to detect financial reporting risks in a timely manner; and
●
Lack of sufficient formal procedures and controls to achieve complete and accurate financial reporting and disclosures, including controls
over the preparation and review of journal entries and account reconciliations.
Management’s
Plan to Remediate the Material Weaknesses
Management
has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness
are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. The remediation actions include:
●
Engagement of external
financial consulting firm to continue to enhance financial reporting, financial operations and internal controls; and
●
Documentation of key procedures
and controls using a risk-based approach.
Management
will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting on an ongoing
basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other
than described above there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months
ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

Item
2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use Of Proceeds
During

of the following transactions, we relied upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”),
as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. For each such transaction, we did not use general solicitation or advertising
to market the securities, the securities were offered to a limited number of persons, the investors had access to information regarding
us (including information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, our Quarterly Report on Form
