9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, evaluated the effectiveness
of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other
procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files
or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s
rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated
to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated,
can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the
cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based
on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to the material weakness in internal control
over financial reporting discussed below.
Notwithstanding
this conclusion, we believe that our consolidated financial statements and other information contained in this annual report on Form
10-K present fairly, in all material respects, our business, financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented.

Management’s
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a
-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors
regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.
Internal
control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s
internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to assets of the Company; (ii) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations
of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is
a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not
be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The
effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including
the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate
misconduct completely. Accordingly, in designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any
system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable,
not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must
reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits
of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods
are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate
for our business but cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial
reporting.
Management
assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, based on the Internal Control-Integrated
Framework (2013 Framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment,
management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2024, due to the material weaknesses
described below.
Material
Weakness
As
a result of the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, management
identified material weaknesses in control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication and
monitoring. Specifically, the material weaknesses identified relate to the fact that the Company has not yet designed and maintained
an effective control environment commensurate with its financial reporting requirements, including (a) has not yet completed
formally documenting policies and procedures with respect to review, supervision and monitoring of the Company’s accounting and
reporting functions, (b) lack of evidence to support the performance of controls and the adequacy of review procedures, including
the completeness and accuracy of information used in the performance of controls and (c) we have
limited accounting personnel and other supervisory resources necessary to adequately execute the Company’s accounting
processes and address its internal controls over financial reporting.
Ongoing
Remediation Plan
Management
is committed to continuing the steps necessary to remediate the control deficiencies that constituted the above material weaknesses.
Since our initial public offering (“IPO”), which we completed in December 2020, we made the following enhancements and continue to make progress to enhance our control environment:
●
We added accounting and finance personnel to provide additional individuals to allow for segregation of duties in the preparation and
review of schedules, calculations and journal entries that support financial reporting, to provide oversight, structure and reporting
lines to provide additional review over our disclosures;
●
We enhanced our controls to improve the preparation and review of complex accounting measurements, the application of US GAAP to
significant accounts and transactions and our financial statement disclosures;
●
We engage independent experts when complex transactions are entered into;
●
We have recruited and plan to recruit additional financial reporting and accounting personnel with adequate knowledge of US GAAP and
SEC rules; and
●
We are in the process of engaging outside consultants to assist us in our evaluation of the design, implementation and documentation
of internal controls that address the relevant risks, to provide appropriate evidence of performance of our internal controls (including
completeness and accuracy procedures).
Under
the direction of the Audit Committee of our board of directors, management will continue to take measures to remediate the material weaknesses.
As such, we will continue to enhance corporate oversight over process-level controls and structures to ensure that there is appropriate
assignment of authority, responsibility and accountability to enable remediation of our material weakness.
As
we continue to evaluate, and work to improve, our internal control over financial reporting, management may determine that additional
measures to address control deficiencies or modifications to the remediation plan are necessary.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other
than the ongoing remediation effort, described above, there have been no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial
reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d 15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent
Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
A
control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of
the internal control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control system, no evaluation of controls can
provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.

multiple executive positions. Dr Boyages held the position of Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company for less than one year,
from October 29, 2021, to October 26, 2022. Dr. Boyages also previously held the position of Chief Executive of the Sydney West Area
Health Service (SWAHS) from February 2002 to May 2011, which is now known as Western Sydney Local Health District, covering a population
of approximately 1.2 million people, SWAHS employed more than 15,000 staff and had a gross operating budget of $2 billion, managing $1.6
billion worth of assets. Dr. Boyages has also served as Medical Director for eHealth New South Wales and was the founding Chief Executive
of the Clinical Education and Training Institute (CETI) New South Wales, Australia, set up to ensure the development and the delivery
of clinical education and training across the NSW public health system. Previous to this, Dr. Boyages was the Director of Diabetes and
Endocrinology at Westmead Hospital, from February 1990 to December 1999. During this time, Dr. Boyages’ major achievements were

the Priority Health Programs (receiving $15 million in funding per annum), doubled the Research Infrastructure Grants Program, established
the Quality Branch of NSW Health and was appointed as Clinical Advisor to the Director General to implement the Government Action Plan
for Health Reform. Additionally, Dr. Boyages was instrumental in establishing and securing funding for the NSW biotechnology strategy,
BioFirst, a $150 million investment. We believe that Dr. Boyages is well-qualified to serve on our Board of Directors due to his medical
expertise and research and development experience. He also has extensive experience in financial management, board and corporate governance,
government relations and regulatory affairs.

Corporate
Governance
Overview
We
set high standards for the Company’s employees, officers, and directors. Implicit in this philosophy is the importance of sound
corporate governance. We regularly monitor developments in the area of corporate governance and review our processes, policies and procedures
in light of such developments. Key information regarding our corporate governance initiatives can be found on the Governance section
of our website, www.ibs.inc, including our Code of Ethics (“Code of Ethics”) and the charters for our Audit, Compensation
and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees. We believe that our corporate governance policies and practices, including the majority
of independent directors on our Board, empower our independent directors to effectively oversee our management—including the performance
of our Chief Executive Officer—and provide an effective and appropriately balanced board governance structure and provide an effective
and appropriately balanced board governance structure. The information on or accessible through our website is not part of this report.
Independence
of the Board of Directors
Our
Board of Directors has determined that each of our directors is an independent director (as currently defined in Rule 5605(a) of the
NASDAQ listing rules).
In
determining the independence of our directors, the Board considered all transactions in which the Company and any director had any interest,
including those discussed under “Related Party Transactions” below. See Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
All our directors are independent. The independent directors meet as often as necessary to fulfil
their responsibilities and will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.
Board
Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
Our
Board of Directors recognizes that one of its key responsibilities is to evaluate and determine its optimal leadership structure so as
to provide effective oversight of management. Our Bylaws provide our Board with flexibility to combine or separate the positions of chairperson
of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.
The
Board believes that our optimal leadership framework at this time is to have Harry Simeonidis serve as President and Chief Executive
Officer, and to have the Board composed of a majority of independent directors. As a company in the highly regulated medical device and
product industries, we and our shareholders benefit from a chief executive officer with deep experience and leadership in, and knowledge
of, the medical device industry. In his role of the President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Simeonidis is responsible for handling
the day-to-day management direction of the Company, serving as a leader to the management team, and formulating corporate strategy.
Although
management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks we face, our Board of Directors and its committees take an
active role in overseeing management of our risks and has the ultimate responsibility for the oversight of risk management,
including with regard to cybersecurity. The Board of Directors regularly reviews information regarding our operational, financial,
legal and strategic risks. Specifically, senior management attends periodic meetings of the Board of Directors, provides
presentations on operations including significant risks, and is available to address any questions or concerns raised by our Board
of Directors.
In
addition, we expect that committees will assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities regarding risk. The
Audit Committee will coordinate the Board of Directors’ oversight of our internal control over financial reporting, disclosure
controls and procedures, related party transactions and code of conduct and corporate governance guidelines. Management will regularly
report to the Audit Committee on these areas. The Compensation Committee will assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities
with respect to the management of risks arising from our compensation policies and programs. When any of the committees receives a report
related to material risk oversight, the chairperson of the relevant committee will report on the discussion to the full Board of Directors.

Audit
Committee
We
have established an Audit Committee of the Board of Directors in accordance with Section 3(a)58(A) of the Exchange Act, which consists
of Ms. Fraser, Mr. Boyages and Mr. Hurd, each of whom is an independent director under the Nasdaq listing standards applicable to audit
committees. Nicola Fraser qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in the rules and regulations established
by the SEC. Our Audit Committee oversees our corporate accounting, financial reporting practices and the audits of financial statements.
The Audit Committee’s duties, which are specified in the Audit Committee Charter, include, but not be limited to:
●
reviewing
and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the Board
of Directors whether the audited financial statements should be included in our Form 10-K;
●
discussing
with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation
of our financial statements;
●
discussing
with management major risk assessment and risk management policies;
●
monitoring
the independence of the independent auditor;
●
verifying
the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible
for reviewing the audit as required by law;
●
reviewing
and approving all related-party transactions;
●
inquiring
and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
65
●
pre-approving
all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the
services to be performed;
●
appointing
or replacing the independent auditor;
●
determining
the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and
the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work; and
●
establishing
procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls
or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies.
Compensation
Committee
We
have established a Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors that consists of Mr. Hurd, Mr. Isenberg and Mr. Boyages, each of whom
is an independent director under the NASDAQ Stock Market listing standards applicable to compensation committees. The Compensation Committee’s
duties, which are specified in our Compensation Committee charter, include, but are not limited to:
●
reviewing
and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our principal executive officer’s compensation,
evaluating our principal executive officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving
the remuneration (if any) of our principal executive officer based on such evaluation;
●
reviewing
and approving the compensation of all of our other executive officers;
●
reviewing
our executive compensation policies and plans;
●
implementing
and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;
●
assisting
management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;
●
approving
all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our executive officers
and employees;
●
if
required, producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and
●
reviewing,
evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.
The
Compensation Committee Charter also provides that the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice
of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight
of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel
or any other adviser, the Compensation Committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required
by the NASDAQ Stock Market and the SEC. The Compensation Committee may delegate any or all of its responsibilities to a subcommittee
of the Compensation Committee, but only to the extent consistent with the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other
applicable law and NASDAQ Stock Market rules.
66
Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee
We
have established a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors that consists of Mr. Boyages, Mr. Hurd and
Mr. Isenberg each of whom is an independent director under the NASDAQ Stock Market listing standards applicable to nominating and corporate
governance committees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become
members of the Company’s Board of Directors and accordingly recommends director nominees for the annual meeting of stockholders.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also recommends and implements policies and procedures intended to assist the Board
operations and all obligations to the Company and its stockholders.
Guidelines
for Selecting Director Nominees:
The
guidelines for selecting nominees, generally provide that person to be nominated:
●
should
have demonstrated notable or significant achievements in business, education or public service;
●
should
possess the requisite intelligence, education and experience to make a significant contribution to the Board of Directors and bring
a range of skills, diverse perspectives and backgrounds to its deliberations; and
●
should
have the highest ethical standards, a strong sense of professionalism and intense dedication to serving the interests of the stockholders.
The
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience,
background and integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the Board of Directors. The Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific
board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and
diverse mix of board members. Though the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have specific guidelines on diversity,
it is one of many criteria considered by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee when evaluating candidates. The Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by stockholders and other persons.
The
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider nominees for the Board recommended by stockholders in accordance with
the Company’s Bylaws. Stockholders wishing to propose Director candidates for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee may do so by writing, by deadlines specified in the Bylaws, to the Secretary of the Company and providing information concerning
the nominee and his or her proponent(s) required by the Bylaws. The Bylaws set forth further requirements for stockholders wishing to
nominate Director candidates for consideration by stockholders including, among other things, that a stockholder must give timely written
notice of an intent to make such a nomination to the Secretary of the Company.
Code
of Business Conduct and Ethics
The
Company has adopted a written Code Ethics that applies to all officers, directors, and employees, including our principal executive officer,
principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. The Code Ethics
is available on the Investors - Governance section of our website at www.ibs.inc. If the Company makes any substantive amendments to
the Code Ethics or grants any waiver from a provision of the Code Ethics to any executive officer or director, we will promptly disclose
the nature of the amendment or waiver on our website. The information on or accessible through our website is not part of this report.
Insider
Trading Policy
We
have adopted an Insider Trading Policy that provides guidance to employees (including officers) and directors with respect to transactions
in the Company’s securities. The Insider Trading Policy is designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and
regulations and any listing standards applicable to the Company. The policy also prohibits directors, officers and other employees from
purchasing financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds), or otherwise
engaging in transactions, that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of our equity securities
without our prior approval.
A
copy of the Intelligent Bio Solutions, Inc. Insider Trading Policy is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to this Annual Report on form 10-K.
Delinquent
Section 16(a) Reports
Section
16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered
class of the Company’s equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership
of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required
by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
To
the Company’s knowledge, based on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations,
during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than
ten percent beneficial owners were complied with, other than the inadvertent late filings by Nicola Fraser of one report (a Form 3) reporting
no transactions.

Employment
and Related Agreements
Compensation
under the executives’ employment agreements in Australia is paid in Australian dollars. All amounts described below that are payable
in Australian dollars have been converted to US dollars using the spot exchange rate of 0.6624 US dollars for each Australian dollar
at fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 (the “Spot Rate”), which differs from the Average Exchange Rate used in the summary compensation
table for disclosures regarding past compensation.
●
During
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, we, through our 99% owned subsidiary, Intelligent Bio Solutions (APAC) Pty Ltd (“IBS (APAC)”),
entered into an employment agreement with each of Messrs. Simeonidis and Sakiris. Mr. Simeonidis’ and Mr. Sakiris’ employment
agreements provide for them to serve as President and Chief Financial Officer, respectively, of our majority-owned subsidiary, and in
accordance with their respective agreements. On September 9, 2022, the Company entered into new employment agreements with each of Messrs.
Simeonidis and Sakiris, each of which were dated June 27, 2022, in order to amend their respective salaries, as approved by the Compensation
Committee. Mr. Sakiris’ employment agreement amends and supersedes his prior employment agreement dated as of April 30, 2019, and
Mr. Simeonidis’ employment agreement amends and supersedes his prior employment agreement dated as of June 17, 2019.
●
On July 23, 2024, subsequent to the recommendation and approval of the Compensation Committee, the Board approved
increasing the annual base salary for Mr. Simeonidis to $370,944
per year and increasing the annual base salary for Mr. Sakiris to $271,584 per year. These salary
increases were effective April 1, 2024.
In
addition, Mr. Sakiris and Mr. Simeonidis are each eligible to receive an annual bonus of up to 20% of their respective gross base
salaries, of which 50% will be based on meeting company objectives and the remainder will be based on meeting mutually agreed
employee objectives or as otherwise determined by the Company.
We
also make certain contributions that are mandatory in Australia to a retirement fund for each of Mr. Sakiris and Mr. Simeonidis,
known in Australia as a superannuation fund, currently at the rate of 11.5% (was 11% during fiscal year ended June 30, 2024). We also
provide an annual car allowance of $15,898 and $13,248 to Mr. Simeonidis and Mr. Sakiris respectively (based on the Spot Rate).
Each
of Mr. Sakiris and Mr. Simeonidis employment agreements is terminable on six months’ notice either by our subsidiary or by the
executive. However, we may terminate either executive without notice if he engages in serious or willful
misconduct, is seriously negligent in the performance of his duties, commits a serious or persistent breach of his employment agreement,
brings our company into disrepute, or is convicted of a criminal offense.
Each
of the above-described employment agreements contain provisions protecting the Company’s confidential information and intellectual
property. Each employment agreement also contains provisions restricting each executive’s ability to compete with the Company during
his employment and for a period of up to six months thereafter in a specified geographic region. The non-compete provisions will generally
impose restrictions on inducing the Company’s employees to leave the Company’s employment or soliciting clients of the Company.
Pursuant to each employment agreement, each executive must devote all of his time, attention and skill to the performance of his duties,
and neither executive may engage in any other business outside the Company without the Company’s prior written consent.
70
Superannuation
Fund
As
required by Australian law, we contribute to standard defined contribution superannuation funds on behalf of all our Australian employees
at an amount required by law, which is currently 11.5% (was 11% during fiscal year ended June 30, 2024) of each such employee’s
salary. Superannuation is a compulsory savings program whereby employers are required to pay a portion of an employee’s remuneration
to an approved superannuation fund that the employee is typically not able to access until they are retired. We permit employees to choose
an approved and registered superannuation fund into which the contributions are paid.
2019
Long Term Incentive Plan (“2019 Plan” or the “Plan”)
The
2019 Plan was adopted by the Board and approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 18, 2019. The purpose of the 2019 Plan is
to enable us to offer our employees, officers, directors and consultants whose past, present and/or potential future contributions to
us have been, are, or will be important to our success, an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in us. The various types of
incentive awards that may be provided under the 2019 Plan are intended to enable us to respond to changes in compensation practices,
tax laws, accounting regulations and the size and diversity of our business.
On
February 8, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment 2019 Plan increasing the aggregate number of shares available
for issuance under the 2019 Plan from 2,084 to 6,250 shares. On May 8, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment 2019
Plan increasing the aggregate number of shares available for issuance under the 2019 Plan from 6,250 to 10,417 shares.
Unless otherwise noted, all share
amounts have been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-12 reverse stock split effected on January 26, 2024, and a 1-for-20 reverse stock split
effected on February 9, 2023.
All
share amounts above have been adjusted to reflect the decreased number of shares resulting from a 1-for-12 reverse stock split effected
on January 26, 2024, and a 1-for-20 reverse stock split effected on February 9, 2023.
Administration
The
2019 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. Subject to the provisions of the plan, the Compensation Committee determines,
among other things, the persons to whom from time to time awards may be granted, the specific type of awards to be granted, the number
of shares subject to each award, share prices, any restrictions or limitations on the awards, and any vesting, exchange, surrender, cancellation,
acceleration, termination, exercise or forfeiture provisions related to the awards.
Stock
Subject to the 2019 Plan
An
aggregate of 133,334 shares of our common stock are available for issuance under the 2019 Plan. Shares of stock subject to other awards
that are forfeited or terminated will be available for future award grants under the 2019 Plan. If a holder pays the exercise price of
a stock option by surrendering any previously owned shares of common stock or arranges to have the appropriate number of shares otherwise
issuable upon exercise withheld to cover the exercise price or tax withholding liability associated with the stock option exercise, the
shares surrendered by the holder or withheld by us will not be available for future award grants under the plan.
71
Under
the 2019 Plan, in the event of a change in the number of shares of our common stock as a result of a dividend on shares of common stock
payable in shares of common stock, common stock forward split or reverse split or other extraordinary or unusual event that results in
a change in the shares of common stock as a whole, the committee will determine whether such change equitably requires an adjustment
in the terms of any award in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits available under the plan or the aggregate number
of shares reserved for issuance under the plan.
Eligibility
We
may grant awards under the 2019 Plan to employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company and our subsidiaries and affiliates
who are deemed to have rendered, or to be able to render, significant services to us or our subsidiaries or affiliates and who are deemed
to have contributed, or to have the potential to contribute, to our success. An incentive stock option may be granted under the plan
only to a person who, at the time of the grant, is an employee of ours or our subsidiaries. Based on the current number of employees
and consultants to the Company and on the current size of our Board of Directors, we estimate that as of June 30, 2024, approximately
45 individuals are eligible to participate in the 2019 Plan.
Types
of Awards
Options.
The 2019 Plan provides both for “incentive” stock options as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, or the “Code,” and for options not qualifying as incentive options, both of which may be granted with any other
stock based award under the plan. The committee determines the exercise price per share of common stock purchasable under an incentive
or non-qualified stock option, which may not be less than 100% of the fair market value on the day of the grant or, if greater, the par
value of a share of common stock. However, the exercise price of an incentive stock option granted to a person possessing more than 10%
of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock may not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant.
The aggregate fair market value of all shares of common stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable by a participant
for the first time during any calendar year (under all of our plans), measured at the date of the grant, may not exceed $100,000.
An
incentive stock option may only be granted within 10 years from the effective date of the 2019 Plan. An incentive stock option may only
be exercised within ten years from the date of the grant, or within five years in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a
person who, at the time of the grant, owns common stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of
our stock.
Subject
to any limitations or conditions the committee may impose, stock options may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time during the
term of the stock option by giving written notice of exercise to us specifying the number of shares of common stock to be purchased.
The notice must be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price, either in cash or, if provided in the agreement, in our securities
or in a combination of the two.
Generally,
stock options granted under the plan may not be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and all stock
options are exercisable, during the holder’s lifetime, only by the holder, or in the event of legal incapacity or incompetency,
the holder’s guardian or legal representative. However, a holder, with the approval of the committee, may transfer a non-qualified
stock option by gift to a family member of the holder or by domestic relations order to a family member of the holder or may transfer
a non-qualified stock option to an entity in which more than 50% of the voting interests are owned by family members of the holder or
the holder.
Generally,
if the holder is an employee, no stock options granted under the plan may be exercised by the holder unless he or she is employed by
us or one of our subsidiaries or affiliates at the time of the exercise and has been so employed continuously from the time the stock
options were granted. However, in the event the holder’s employment is terminated due to disability or normal retirement, the holder
may still exercise his or her vested stock options for a period of 12 months, or such other greater or lesser period as the committee
may determine, from the date of termination or until the expiration of the stated term of the stock option, whichever period is shorter.
Similarly, should a holder die while employed by us or one of our subsidiaries or affiliates, his or her legal representative or legatee
under his or her will may exercise the decedent holder’s vested stock options for a period of 12 months from the date of his or
her death, or such other greater or lesser period as the Board or committee may determine, or until the expiration of the stated term
of the stock option, whichever period is shorter. If the holder’s employment is terminated for any reason other than death, disability
or normal retirement, the stock option will automatically terminate, except that if the holder’s employment is terminated by us
without cause, then the portion of any stock option that is vested on the date of termination may be exercised for the lesser of three
months after termination of employment, or such other greater or lesser period as the committee may determine but not beyond the balance
of the stock option’s term.
72
Stock
Appreciation Rights . Under the 2019 Plan, we may grant stock appreciation rights to participants who have been, or are being, granted
stock options under the plan as a means of allowing the participants to exercise their stock options without the need to pay the exercise
price in cash, or we may grant them alone and unrelated to an option. In conjunction with non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation
rights may be granted either at or after the time of the grant of the non-qualified stock options. In conjunction with incentive stock
options, stock appreciation rights may be granted only at the time of the grant of the incentive stock options. A stock appreciation
right entitles the holder to receive a number of shares of common stock having a fair market value equal to the excess fair market value
of one share of common stock over the exercise price of the related stock option, multiplied by the number of shares subject to the stock
appreciation rights. The granting of a stock appreciation right in tandem with a stock option will not affect the number of shares of
common stock available for awards under the plan. In such event, the number of shares available for awards under the plan will, however,
be reduced by the number of shares of common stock acquirable upon exercise of the stock option to which the stock appreciation right
relates.
Restricted
Stock and Restricted Stock Units. Under the 2019 Plan, we may award shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units. Restricted
stock units are the right to receive at a future date share of common stock, or an amount in cash or other consideration determined by
the committee to be of equal value as of such settlement date, in accordance with the terms of such grant. The committee determines the
persons to whom grants of restricted stock or restricted stock units are made, the number of shares to be awarded, the price (if any)
to be paid for the restricted stock or restricted stock units by the person receiving the stock from us, the time or times within which
awards of restricted stock or restricted stock units may be subject to forfeiture, the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration thereof,
and all other terms and conditions of the awards. Restrictions or conditions could also include, but are not limited to, the attainment
of performance goals. A holder of restricted stock units will have no rights of a stockholder with respect to shares subject to any restricted
stock unit award unless and until the shares are delivered in settlement of the award, except to the extent the committee provides for
the right to receive dividend equivalents.
Other
Stock-Based Awards . Under the 2019 Plan, we may grant other stock-based awards, subject to limitations under applicable law that
are denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, shares of common stock,
as deemed consistent with the purposes of the plan. These other stock-based awards may be in the form of purchase rights, shares of common
stock awarded that are not subject to any restrictions or conditions, convertible or exchangeable debentures or other rights convertible
into shares of common stock and awards valued by reference to the value of securities of, or the performance of, one of us or one of
our subsidiaries. These other stock-based awards may include performance shares or options, whose award is tied to specific performance
criteria. These other stock-based awards may be awarded either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with any other awards under the 2019
Plan or any of our other plans.
Accelerated
Vesting and Exercisability
If
any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires the ownership of our stock that, together with the stock held by
such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or combined voting power of our stock, and the Board of
Directors does not authorize or otherwise approve such acquisition, then the vesting periods of any and all stock options and other awards
granted and outstanding under the 2019 Plan shall be accelerated and all such stock options and awards will immediately and entirely
vest, and the respective holders thereof will have the immediate right to purchase and/or receive any and all common stock subject to
such stock options and awards on the terms set forth in the plan and the respective agreements respecting such stock options and awards,
and all performance goals will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels. An increase in the percentage of stock owned by any one person,
or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which we acquire our stock in exchange for property is not treated as an
acquisition of stock.
73
In
the event of an acquisition by any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, together with acquisitions during the 12-month
period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons, of assets from us that have a total gross fair market
value equal to or more than 50% of the total gross fair market value of all of our assets immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions,
or if any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires the ownership of our stock that, together with the stock held
by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or combined voting power of our stock, which has been
approved by the Board of Directors, the committee may (i) accelerate the vesting of any and all stock options and other awards granted
and outstanding under the 2019 Plan, (ii) require a holder of any award granted under the plan to relinquish such award to us upon the
tender by us to the holder of cash in an amount equal to the repurchase value of such award, and/or (iii) terminate all incomplete performance
periods in respect of awards in effect on the date the acquisition occurs, determine the extent to which performance goals have been
met based upon such information then available as it deems relevant and cause to be paid all or the applicable portion of the award based
upon the committee’s determination. For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of our assets, or the value of the
assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.
Term
and Amendments
Unless
terminated by the Board, the 2019 Plan will continue to remain effective until no further awards may be granted, and all awards granted
under the plan are no longer outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, grants of incentive stock options may be made only until ten
years from the initial effective date of the plan. The Board may at any time, and from time to time, amend the plan or any award agreement,
but no amendment will be made that would impair the rights of a holder under any agreement entered into pursuant to the plan without
the holder’s consent.

Non-Employee
Director Compensation Arrangements
Prior
to April 1, 2024:
Our
non-employee directors are entitled to receive cash fees of $30,000 (plus $10,000 each for the Chairman of the Board and Financial Expert/Chair
of the Audit Committee) per year of service on our Board of Directors. Service rendered on any of the committees of the Board does not
entitle our non-employee directors to any additional compensation.
After
April 1, 2024:
Our
non-employee directors are entitled to receive cash fees of $40,000 (additional $20,000 for the Chairman of the Board, additional
$15,000 Financial Expert/Chair of the Audit Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, an additional $5,000 for
the Chair of the Compensation Committee, and additional $5,000 for the member of each committees unless he/she is the chairperson of a committee) per year of service on our Board of Directors.
Recoupment
Policy
We
adopted the Intelligent Bio Solutions, Inc. Dodd-Frank Restatement Recoupment Policy effective as of October 2, 2023. In the event that
we are required to prepare a financial restatement, the Compensation Committee will recoup all erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation
calculated on a pre-tax basis received after October 2, 2023, by a person (i) after beginning service as an executive officer, (ii) who
served as an executive officer at any time during the performance period for that incentive-based compensation, and (iii) during the
three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date that the Company is required to prepare a restatement, and any transition
period (that results from a change in the Company’s fiscal year) of less than nine months within or immediately following those
three completed fiscal years. “Clawback” or recoupment policy in our executive compensation program contributes to creating
and maintaining a culture that emphasizes integrity and accountability and reinforces the performance-based principles underlying our
executive compensation program.
Granting
of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information
We
do not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information and do not time the public release of such
information based on award grant dates. During the last completed fiscal year, we have not made awards to any named executive officer
during the period beginning four business days before and ending one business day after the filing of a period report on Form 10-Q or
Form 10-K or the filing or furnishing of a current report on Form 8-K, and we have not timed the disclosure of material nonpublic information
for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
ITEM
12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS
The
following table sets forth certain information regarding the ownership of our common stock as of September 16, 2024 by: (i) each
director and nominee for director; (ii) each of the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table; (iii) all executive officers
and directors of the Company as a group; and (iv) all those known by us to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of our common
stock.
This
table is based upon information supplied by officers and directors as well as Schedules 13D or 13G filed with the SEC by beneficial owners
of more than five percent of our common stock. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table and subject to community property
laws, where applicable, we believe that each of the stockholders named in this table has sole voting and investment power with respect
to the shares indicated as beneficially owned.
75
Applicable
percentages are based on 4,249,782 shares of our common stock outstanding on September 16, 2024. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance
with the rules of the SEC, which generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting
power or investment power with respect to those securities and includes shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to the exercise
of stock options, warrants, or other securities that are immediately exercisable or convertible or exercisable or convertible within
60 days of September 16, 2024. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons or entities identified in this table have sole voting and investment
power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by them. Except as otherwise set forth below, the address of the beneficial
owner is c/o Intelligent Bio Solutions Inc., 135 West, 41 ST Street, 5 th Floor, New York, NY 10036.

ITEM
13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Independence
of the Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors has determined that each of our directors is an independent director (as currently defined
in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ listing rules). At the time of Mr. Tower’s resignation on June 7, 2024, and the end of Mr. Jenkins’
term on the Board on December 15, 2023, both Messrs. Towers and Jenkins were independent. At the time of Mr. Fisher’s passing on
June 5, 2024, Mr. Fisher was independent. In determining the independence of our directors, the Board of Directors considered all transactions
in which the Company and any director had any interest, including those discussed under “Certain Related-Person Transactions”
below.
Our
independent directors together constitute a majority of our full Board of Directors. The independent directors meet as often as necessary
to fulfil their responsibilities and will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.
Related-Person
Transactions
Our
Code of Ethics requires that we avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts
of interests, except under guidelines approved by the Board of Directors. Related party transactions are defined under SEC rules as transactions
in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average
of our total assets for the last two completed fiscal years, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive
officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our shares of common stock, or (c) immediate
family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than
solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity) (collectively, “Related Party Transactions”).
A conflict-of-interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or
her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper
personal benefits as a result of his or her position.
Policies
and Procedures for Related Party Transactions
All
future and ongoing related party transactions (as defined under SEC rules) require prior review and approval by the Audit Committee,
which will have access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction without
the approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will consider all relevant factors when determining whether to approve a related
party transaction, including whether the related party transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an
unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction.
No
director may participate in the approval of any transaction in which he is a related party, but that director is required to provide
the other members of the board with all material information concerning the transaction. Additionally, we require each of our directors
and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party
transactions.
These
procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a
conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee, or officer.
Certain
Transactions with or Involving Related Persons
The
following is a summary of related party transactions since the beginning of our last fiscal year, and any currently proposed transactions, to which we were or
are to be a participant. We believe the terms obtained or consideration that we paid or received, as applicable, in connection with the
transactions described below were, unless otherwise noted below, comparable to terms available or the amounts that we would pay or received,
as applicable, in arm’s-length transactions.
October
2023 Offering
On
October 4, 2023, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of its securities in the form of units (the “October 2023
Offering”) consisting a total of 2,232,221 shares (186,018 shares post January 2024 Reverse Stock Split) of common stock, 5,728,723
shares of the Company’s Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (each share of Series E Preferred Stock is convertible into one share
the Company’s common stock (1/12 share post January 2024 Reverse Stock Split)), (“Series E Preferred Stock”), 7,960,944
warrants (663,412 warrants post January 2024 Reverse Stock Split) to purchase shares of common stock that will expire on the five-and-a-half-year
anniversary of the original issuance date (the “Series E Warrants”), and 7,960,944 warrants (663,412 warrants post January
2024 Reverse Stock Split) to purchase shares of common stock that will expire on the one-and-a-half-year anniversary of the original
issuance date (the “Series F Warrants”, collectively with the Series E Warrants, the “Warrants”). Each Unit consisted
of one share of common stock (1/12 share post January 2024 Reverse Stock Split) (or one share of Series E Preferred Stock), one Series
E Warrant and one Series F Warrant. The Units were priced at a combined public offering price of $0.55 per unit for initial gross proceeds
of approximately $4.38 million. Net proceeds to the Company, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated
offering expenses payable by the Company, were approximately $3.79 million.
The
original exercise price of the Series E Warrants was $0.55 per share ($6.60 post-Company’s Reverse Stock Splits) which was subject
to a one-time reset to a price equal to the lesser of (i) the then exercise price and (ii) 90% of the five-day volume weighted average
price for the five trading days immediately following the date the Company effects a reverse stock split. As a result of the January
2024 Reverse Stock Split, the exercise price of the Series E Warrants was reset to $2.9232 per share. The original exercise price of
the Series F Warrants was $0.55 per share ($6.60 post-Company’s Reverse Stock Splits) but is subject to an alternate cashless exercise
option pursuant to which the holder has the right to receive an aggregate number of shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis (one-for-1/12
post-Company’s Reverse Stock Splits) (subject to adjustment).
The
Company also agreed to issue to the Underwriters, warrants to purchase up to 5.0% of the shares of common stock (or common stock equivalents)
sold in the October 2023 Offering (which equaled 398,047 shares of common stock (33,171 shares post January Reverse Stock Split)). These
warrants have an exercise price of $0.6875 per share ($8.25 post January 2024 Reverse Stock Split) and will terminate on October 2, 2028.
Subsequent
to the October 2023 Offering, all 5,728,723 shares of the outstanding Series E Preferred Stock were converted into an aggregate of 5,728,723
shares (477,394 post-Company’s Reverse Stock Splits) of common stock. Additionally, the Company issued 7,346,178 shares (612,182
post-Company’s Reverse Stock Splits) of common stock pursuant in connection with the cashless exercise of the Company’s Series
F Warrants.
Spiro
Sakiris, our Chief Financial Officer, purchased 112,727 units on the same terms as the other purchasers in the October 2023 Offering.
Mr. Christopher Towers, a member of our Board at the time of the October 2023 Offering, purchased 9,090 units on the same terms as the
other purchasers in the October 2023 Offering. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock, one Series E Warrant and one Series
F Warrant. The units were priced at a combined public offering price of $0.55 per unit.

Policies and Procedures
The
Audit Committee has procedures in place for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services rendered by the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee generally pre-approves specified services in the defined categories of audit services,
audit-related services, and tax services. Pre-approval may also be given as part of the Audit Committee’s approval of the scope
of the engagement of the independent auditor or on an individual, explicit, case-by-case basis before the independent auditor is engaged
to provide each service. The pre-approval of services may be delegated to one or more of the Audit Committee’s members, but the
decision must be reported to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Intelligent
Bio Solutions, Inc.
Opinion
on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Intelligent Bio Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 30,
2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholders’
equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as
the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.
Substantial
Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed
in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been through funding from financing
activities. The Company has reported operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. These factors 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 consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis
for Opinion
These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the Company’s consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We
have served as the Company’s auditor since 2023.

after deducting closing costs, placement agent fees, and other estimated expenses payable by the Company, was approximately $ 1.58 million.
Refer to Note 13 for details.
On
March 12, 2024, the Company raised approximately $ 10.10 million, prior to deducting placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses
via a private placement of common stock and warrants priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules. Net proceeds to the Company, after deducting
placement agent’s fees and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, were approximately $ 9.12 million. Refer to
Note 13 for details.
The
Company incurred a net loss of approximately $ 10.16 million
for the year ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had shareholders’ equity of approximately $ 8.18
million , working capital of approximately
$ 3.08 million ,
and an accumulated deficit of approximately $ 51.96 million.
The
Company anticipates operating losses for the foreseeable future. The Company does not expect to generate positive cash flows from operating
activities and may continue to incur operating losses until it sufficiently delivers on its objectives which include completion of the
regulatory approval process in the United States of America (USA) and other markets where such approval may be required, expansion of
its revenue base into target markets, and the continued development of its products. The ability to achieve these objectives is subject
to inherent risks and no assurance can be provided that these objectives will be fully achieved within the next 12 months.
The
Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise a substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as going concern within one year after the date of release of these consolidated financial statements.
Management believes there is material risk that the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024, of approximately
$ 6.30 million,
may be insufficient to fund its current operating plan through at least the next twelve months from the issuance of these
consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Company may be required to raise additional funds during the next 12 months.
However, there can be no assurance that when the Company requires additional financing, such financing will be available on terms
which are favorable to the Company, or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional funding to meet its working capital
needs in the future, it will be forced to delay or reduce the scope of its research programs and/or limit or cease its operations.
In addition, the Company may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of
business.
Accordingly,
these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern unless it can successfully meet
the stated objectives and/or raise additional capital.
The
Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets
and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include
any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of presentation
The
consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) as of June 30, 2024 and 2023.
The
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto give retrospective effect to the stock splits for all periods presented. All common
stock, options exercisable for common stock, restricted stock units, warrants and per share amounts contained in the consolidated financial
statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the stock splits for all periods presented.
Principles
of consolidation
These
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries in which the
Company has a controlling voting interest and, when applicable, variable interest entities in which the Company has a controlling financial
interest or is the primary beneficiary. Investments in affiliates where the Company does not exert a controlling financial interest are
not consolidated.
All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Foreign
currency translation
Assets
and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated from local (functional) currency to reporting currency (U.S. dollar) at the spot
rate on the consolidated balance sheets date; income and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the
year. Adjustments resulting from translating local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are reflected in accumulated other
comprehensive loss in total shareholders’ equity.
The
functional currency of INBS is the United States dollar. The settlement of transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional
currency resulted in a loss of $ 137,118 and a gain of $ 212,639 for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Use
of estimates
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US 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
consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant
estimates made by management in connection with the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements including the
fair value measurement of and the useful lives of long-lived assets, inventory valuations, the allocation of transaction price among
various performance obligations, and the allowance for credit losses. Actual results could materially differ from those
estimates.
Risks
and Uncertainties
The
Company’s future results of operations and liquidity could be materially adversely affected by macroeconomic factors contributing
to delays in payments from customers and inflationary pressure, uncertain or reduced demand, and the impact of any initiatives or programs
that the Company may undertake to address financial and operational challenges faced by its customers. See associated risk factors in
Item 1A. Risk Factors in Item 1A Risk Factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
F- 9
Cash
and cash equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying values of cash
and cash equivalents approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. As of June 30, 2024 and
2023, there were no cash equivalents.
Concentration
of credit risk
The
Company places its cash and cash equivalents, which may at times be in excess of the Australia Financial Claims Scheme, Financial Services
Compensation Scheme or the United States’ Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits, with high credit quality financial
institutions and attempts to limit the amount of credit exposure with any one institution. The amounts over these insured limits as of
June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $ 5,781,130 and $ 1,114,687 , respectively. No losses have been incurred to date on any deposits.
Fair
value measurements
The
accounting guidance defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major
asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price,
representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants
would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the accounting guidance establishes a three-tier
fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level
1 -Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level
2 -Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets
that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full
term of the assets or liabilities.
Level
3 -Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets
or liabilities.
Assets
and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the
fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its
entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability.
The
carrying amounts of cash equivalents, prepaid and other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are representative of their
respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments.
Inventories,
net
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, other costs that have
been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price
less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution. General market conditions, as
well as the Company’s research activities, can cause certain of its products to become obsolete. The Company writes down excess
and obsolete inventories based upon a regular analysis of inventory on hand compared to historical and projected demand. The determination
of projected demand requires the use of estimates and assumptions related to projected sales for each product. These write downs can
influence results from operations.
Equity
offering costs
The
Company complies with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs ,
with regards to offering costs. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering costs are capitalized as deferred offering costs on
the consolidated balance sheets. The deferred offering costs will be charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the
related offering.
F- 10
Property,
Plant and Equipment (“PPE”) & Construction in Progress (“CIP”)
In
accordance with the ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment , the Company’s PPE, except land, is stated at cost net of accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Land is stated at cost less any impairment losses. Costs incurred to acquire, construct,
or install PPE, before the assets are ready for use, are capitalized in CIP at historical cost. The carrying amount of assets purchased
or constructed out of the grant funds are presented net by deducting the grant proceeds received from the gross costs of the assets or
CIP. CIP is not depreciated until such a time when the asset is substantially completed and ready for its intended use. Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in the period in which the expense is incurred. Depreciation is calculated on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset using the following terms:
●
Other
equipment – 3 years
●
Production
equipment – 2 - 4 years
●
Leasehold
improvements – shorter of asset’s estimated useful life and the remaining term of the lease
The
assets’ residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed periodically and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
Equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising upon
de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying value of the asset)
is included in gain or loss on sale of assets in the consolidated statements of operations in the period the asset is derecognized.
Leases
The
Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at its inception. Lease arrangements are comprised primarily of real estate for which
the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and the corresponding lease liabilities are presented separately on the consolidated balance
sheet.
ROU
assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease
payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated
present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease term includes options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain
that the option will be exercised. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.
The
Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments considering the term of the
lease, which is derived from information available at the lease commencement date, considering publicly available data for instruments
with similar characteristics. The Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
Intangible
assets
Intangible
assets are considered long-lived assets and are recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. The definite-lived
intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which do not exceed any contractual periods. Certain of our intangible
assets have been assigned an indefinite life as we currently anticipate that these trade names and trademarks will contribute cash flows
to the Company indefinitely. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are evaluated at least annually to determine whether
the indefinite useful life is appropriate. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Intangible
assets acquired from a foreign operation are translated from the foreign entity’s functional currency to the presentational currency
based on the exchange rate at the reporting date.
Impairment
of long-lived assets
Long-lived
assets include acquired property and equipment, right of use assets and other intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company
evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
related carrying amount may not be recoverable.
F- 11
Such
events and changes may include significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results, significant changes in asset
use, significant negative industry or economic trends, and changes in the Company’s business strategy. Recoverability is measured
by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the
asset or asset group. When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the excess of the asset’s
carrying amount over the fair value of the asset, while long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount
or fair value less cost to sell.
During
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $ 4.2
million in the IFPG segment, which is related
to the goodwill associated with the IFP Acquisition. Following the impairment charge the goodwill balance was zero.
For
the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company did not record any impairment charges on its long-lived assets.
Business
combinations
The
results of businesses acquired in a business combination are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the
date of the acquisition. The Company uses the acquisition method of accounting and allocates the purchase price to the identifiable assets
and liabilities of the relevant acquired business at their acquisition date fair values. Any excess consideration over the fair value
of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price in a business combination
requires the Company to perform valuations with significant judgment and estimates, including the selection of valuation methodologies,
estimates of future revenue, costs and cash flows, discount rates and selection of comparable companies. The Company engages the assistance
of valuation specialists in concluding on fair value measurements in connection with determining fair value of assets acquired and liabilities
assumed in a business combination. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date,
the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with a corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion
of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any
subsequent adjustments are recorded to the consolidated statements of operations. Transaction costs associated with business combinations
are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
F- 12
Revenue
recognition
In
accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue from its contracts with customers when
it satisfies its performance obligations by delivering the promised goods or service deliverables to the customers. A good or service
deliverable is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of the good or service deliverable.
Financial
information presented on a consolidated basis is accompanied by disaggregated information about revenue and other income by product type
for the purpose of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Currently, the Company has two products offerings. Accordingly,
the Company has determined the following reporting segments (refer to Note 4, Segment Information):
1)
Commercially
available Intelligent Fingerprinting Products (“IFPG” or “IFPG segment”)
2)
Development
Stage Biosensor Platform Technology (“BPT segment”)
Revenue
is used to evaluate the performance of the Company’s segments, the progress of major initiatives and the allocation of resources.
All of the Company’s revenues is attributable to the IFPG segment during the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Revenue
from the IFPG segment relates to the sale of readers, cartridges and other sales which represents accessories and is summarized as
follows:

Total revenue
$ 3,111,781
$ 1,256,872
Other
income
The
other income is mainly comprised of grant income and Research & Development (“R&D”) tax refund.
a)
Grant income
On
June 30, 2021, the Company executed a definitive grant agreement with the Australian Government to assist with building a manufacturing
facility. The grant has a total value of up to $ 4.7 million upon the achievement of certain milestones until March 28, 2024 (extended
to March 28, 2025 on April 16, 2024). Proceeds from the grant will be used primarily to reimburse the Company for costs incurred in the
construction of the manufacturing facility.
Accounting
for the grant does not fall under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , as the Australian Government will not benefit
directly from our manufacturing facility. As there is no authoritative guidance under US GAAP on accounting for grants to for-profit
business entities, we applied International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure
of Government Assistance , by analogy when accounting for the Australian Government grant to the Company. Furthermore, disclosures
made below are in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-10, Government
Assistance (Topic 832), Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance .
The
Australian Government grant proceeds, which will be used to reimburse construction costs incurred, meet the definition of grants related
to assets as the primary purpose for the payments is to fund the construction of a capital asset. Pursuant to IAS 20, the Company has
elected to record the grants received initially as deferred income and deduct the grant proceeds received from the gross costs of the
assets or construction in progress (“CIP”) and the deferred grant income liability. A total of $ 543,410 and $ 646,116 was
recognized as a reduction to the CIP asset on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively.
F- 13
Under
IAS 20, government grants are initially recognized when there is reasonable assurance the conditions of the grant will be met and the
grant will be received. As of June 30, 2021, management concluded that there was reasonable assurance the grant conditions will be met
and all milestone payments received. The total grant value of $ 4.7 million was recognized as both a grant receivable and deferred grant
income on the grant effective date. The project has been delayed due to global shortages of semiconductors that are used in manufacturing
equipment and global supply chain disruption due to the coronavirus pandemic in the preceding year. The Company has only completed 4
of the 8 milestones in the grant agreement as of June 30, 2024. On April 16, 2024, the Company entered into a Deed of Variation with
Australian Government, Department of Industry, Science and Resources, extending the project completion date to March 28, 2025. The deed
of variation also made certain modifications to the project costs. The overall budget of the project has been reduced by $ 1.65 million
to account for the changes in scope of the project.
After
initial recognition, under IAS 20, government grants are recognized in earnings on a systematic basis in a manner that mirrors the manner
in which the Company recognizes the underlying costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. Pursuant to IS 20, the Company has
elected to recognize government grant income separately within other income for operating expenditures. Similarly, for capital expenditures,
the carrying amount of assets purchased or constructed out of the grant funds are presented net by deducting the grant proceeds received
from the gross costs of the assets or CIP and deferred grant income liability. There was no deferred grant income recognized within other
income during the year ended June 30, 2024. A total of $ 127,944
deferred grant income was recognized within other
income during the year ended June 30, 2023.
b)
R&D tax refund
The
Company measures the R&D grant income and receivable by considering the time spent by employees on eligible R&D activities and
R&D costs incurred to external service providers. The R&D tax refund receivable is recognized when it is probable that the amount
will be recovered in full through a future claim. A total of $ 424,776 and $ 609,684 of R&D
tax refund income was recognized in other income during the years end June 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively.
Development
and regulatory approval costs
Expenditures
relating to R&D are expensed as incurred and recorded in development and regulatory approval in the consolidated statements of operations
and other comprehensive loss. R&D expenses include external expenses incurred under arrangements with third parties; salaries and
personnel-related costs; license fees to acquire in-process technology and other expenses. The Company recognizes the benefit of refundable
R&D tax refunds as a R&D tax refund income when there is reasonable assurance that the amount claimed will be recovered (refer
to the R&D tax refund discussion above).
Intellectual
property acquired for a particular research and development project and that have no alternative future uses (in other research and development
projects or otherwise) are expensed in research and development costs at the time the costs are incurred.
In
certain circumstances, the Company may be required to make advance payments to vendors for goods or services that will be received in
the future for use in R&D activities. In such circumstances, the non-refundable advance payments are deferred and capitalized, even
when there is no alternative future use for the R&D, until the related goods or services are provided. In circumstances where amounts
have been paid in excess of costs incurred, the Company records a prepaid expense.
Equity-Based
Compensation
Equity-based
compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line
basis over the requisite service period, if any, based on the terms of the awards. The fair value of the stock-based payments to employees
and nonemployees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable at the grant date is measured by reference to the Company’s stock price
and recognized immediately, unless there is a contractual term for services in which case such compensation would be amortized over the
contractual term.
F- 14
Employee
benefits
The
costs of short-term employee benefits are recognized as a liability and an expense unless those costs are required to be recognized as
part of the cost of inventories or non-current assets. The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognized in the period in which
the employee’s services are received. Termination benefits are recognized immediately as an expense when the Company is demonstrably
committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
Income
taxes
In
accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes , tax positions initially need to be recognized in the consolidated financial
statements when it is more likely than not that the positions will be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. It also provides
guidance for de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.
As
of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no uncertain tax positions that qualified for either recognition or disclosure in the
consolidated financial statements. Additionally, the Company had no interest and penalties related to income taxes.
The
Company accounts for current and deferred income taxes and, when appropriate, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded with respect
to temporary differences in the accounting treatment of items for financial reporting purposes and for income tax purposes. Where, based
on the weight of all available evidence, it is more likely than not that some amount of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be
realized, a valuation allowance is established for that amount that, in management’s judgment, is sufficient to reduce the deferred
tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Net
loss per share attributable to common shareholders (“EPS”)
The
Company calculates earnings per share attributable to common shareholders in accordance with ASC 260, Earning Per Share .
Basic net loss per share attributable to common shareholders is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders
by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is calculated by
dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by weighted average common stock outstanding during the period plus
potentially dilutive common stock, such as share warrants.
Potentially
dilutive common stock are calculated in accordance with the treasury share method, which assumes that proceeds from the exercise of
all warrants are used to repurchase common stock at market value. The number of shares remaining after the proceeds are exhausted
represents the potentially dilutive effect of the securities.
As
the Company has incurred net losses in all periods, certain potentially dilutive securities, including convertible preferred stock, warrants
to acquire common stock, and convertible notes payable have been excluded in the computation of diluted loss per share as the effects
are antidilutive.
Recent
accounting pronouncements
As
the Company is an emerging growth company, we have elected to defer the adoption of new accounting pronouncements until they would apply
to private companies.
Adopted:
Financial
Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”)
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (Topic 326), Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”).
This update provides more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments, other commitments to
extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date and requires the entity to estimate its credit losses as far as it can
reasonably estimate. This update became effective for the Company on July 1, 2023. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material
impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
F- 15
Pending
adoption:
Business
Combinations (Topic 805) – Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”)
In
October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805) – Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract
Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”). ASU -08 requires that an acquirer recognize and measure
contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, as if it had originated the
contracts. Prior to this ASU, an acquirer generally recognized contract assets acquired, and contract liabilities assumed that arose
from contracts with customers at fair value on the acquisition date. The ASU was effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The ASU is to be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective
date of the amendment. The Company has not early adopted and continues to evaluate the impact of the provisions of ASU 2021-08 on its
consolidated financial statements.
Segment
Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”)
In
November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 to enhance disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in this ASU require
a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim
periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. The amendments
in this ASU also clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss and provide new segment
disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The ASU is to be applied retrospectively
to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company has not early adopted and continues to evaluate the impact of the provisions
of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements.
Income
Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”)
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 to enhance disclosures about income taxes. The amendments in this ASU require a public entity
to disclose in tabular format, using both percentages and reporting currency amounts, specific categories in the rate reconciliation
and to provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The amendments in this ASU also require
taxes paid (net of refunds received) to be disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes and further disaggregated for specific
jurisdictions to the extent the related amounts exceed a quantitative threshold. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The ASU is to be applied prospectively upon adoption. The Company has not early adopted
and continues to evaluate the impact of the provisions of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE
4. SEGMENT REPORTING
ASC
280, Segment Reporting , establishes standards for the manner in which companies report financial information about operating segments,
products, services, geographic areas and major customers.
Our
Segments
Operating
segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is regularly reviewed
by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing
performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer.
Following
the acquisition of IFP, we conduct our business through two operating segments:
1)
Commercially
available Intelligent Fingerprinting Products (IFPG or IFPG segment)
2)
Development
Stage Biosensor Platform Technology (BPT segment)
F- 16
The
Company has determined it operates in two operating and reportable segments, as the CODM reviews financial information presented on a
consolidated basis accompanied by disaggregated information about revenue and other income by product types for the purpose of allocating
resources and evaluating financial performance. Currently, the Company has two products offerings.
The
IFPG segment accounted for 100% of the Company’s revenue during the year ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
The
following tables set forth the Company’s revenue, government support income, net loss and long-lived assets and inventories by
operating and reportable segments.

5. INTELLIGENT FINGERPRINTING LIMITED ACQUISITION
On
October 4, 2022, INBS acquired 100 % of the outstanding shares of Intelligent Fingerprinting Limited (IFP), a company registered in England
and Wales, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement, dated October 4, 2022 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) by and among IFP,
the holders of all of the issued shares in the capital of IFP (the “IFP Sellers”) and a representative of the IFP Sellers.
IFP owns a portfolio of intellectual property for diagnostic tests and associated technologies, including drug testing through the analysis
of fingerprint sweat. The acquisition of IFP has expanded the Company’s platform of rapid, non-invasive diagnostic testing technologies.
The
table below summarizes the fair value of the consideration transferred in the acquisition (pre-Company’s Reverse Stock Splits):

The
description of the IFP Acquisition below this table describes the purchase consideration on a post-Company’s Reverse Stock
Splits basis.
F- 18
Pursuant
to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired from the IFP Sellers all of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock
of IFP, and as consideration therefore, the Company issued and sold to the IFP Sellers upon the closing of the IFP Acquisition (the “IFP
Closing”) an aggregate number of 12,347 (as adjusted for Company’s Reverse Stock Splits) shares of the Company’s common
stock, and (ii) 2,363,003 shares of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $ 0.01 per share (the “Series
C Preferred Stock”).
Up
to an additional 1,649,273 shares of Series C Preferred Stock were reserved for potential future issuance by the Company, consisting
of (i) 500,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, that were held back from the IFP Sellers for one year after the IFP Closing to secure
potential indemnification claims by the Company against the IFP Sellers and (ii) 1,149,273 shares of Series C Preferred Stock to certain
lenders to IFP (the “IFP Lenders”). Each share of Series C Preferred Stock was convertible into 0.0125 shares of common stock
at the time of conversion (after giving effect to the Company’s Reverse Stock Splits), which was contingent upon approval by the
Company’s stockholders that was obtained on May 8, 2023.
Effective
contemporaneously with the IFP Closing, the Company entered into an amendment to the bridge facility agreement between the Company and
IFP, dated as of June 16, 2022, pursuant to which, among other things, the $ 504,938 (including accrued interest) loan from the Company
to IFP remained outstanding following the date of the IFP Closing (the “Company-IFP Loan Agreement”).
The
loan receivable from IFP of $ 504,938 as of October 4, 2022, was treated as a cash consideration in accordance with ASC 805, Business
Combinations (“ASC 805”).
The
Company entered into various loan agreements in the aggregate amount of $ 1,425,307 (£ 1,254,270 ), including accrued interest, pursuant
to which IFP was the borrower and the Company became a guarantor of IFP’s obligations thereunder (the “IFP Loan Agreements”
and, together with the Company-IFP Loan Agreement, the “Loan Agreements”). Under the Loan Agreements, the loans thereunder
remained outstanding following the IFP Closing and (x) the loans and certain accrued interest was convertible into shares of IFP, which
shares of IFP would then be immediately transferred to the Company in exchange for shares of Series C Preferred Stock that were convertible
into common stock (as set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement) following approval of the Company Stockholder Approval Matters (defined
below) or (y) the loans and certain accrued interest will become repayable on the second anniversary of the date of the IFP Closing.
The loans bore interest at 17 % per annum on a compounded basis, increasing to 22 % per annum on a compounded basis with effect from the
date that falls 12 months following the date of the IFP Closing, if the Company Stockholder Approval Matters had not been approved by
the Company’s stockholders by such date. The “Company Stockholder Approval Matters” means the approval by the Company’s
stockholders of (i) the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock into common stock and (ii) any amendments to, or adoption of, any
option or warrant plans to give effect to the transactions contemplated under the Share Exchange Agreement. The last of the Company Stockholder
Approval Matters were approved at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) on May 8,
2023.
Each
share of Series C Preferred Stock (other than the IFP Lender Preferred Shares) automatically converted into common stock upon approval
of the Company’s stockholders of the conversion of Series C Preferred Stock into common stock, and each IFP Lender Preferred Share
converted into common stock at the option of the applicable holder of such IFP Lender Preferred Shares following approval of the Company’s
stockholders of the conversion of Series C Preferred Stock into common stock. The number of shares of common stock into which the Series
C Preferred Stock was convertible was subject to adjustment in the case of any stock dividend, stock split, combinations, or other similar
recapitalization with respect to the common stock.
The
rights, preferences and privileges of the Series C Preferred Stock are set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights
and Limitations of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock that the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on
October 4, 2022, as further described below (the “Series C Certificate of Designation”).
F- 19
The
Series C Preferred Stock does not have any voting rights (other than as required by law) and does not carry dividends or a liquidation
preference. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock was initially convertible into 3 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment as
noted above. Following the Company’s Reverse Stock Splits, each share of Series C Preferred Stock was convertible into 0.0125 shares
of common stock. The loan receivable from IFP of $ 504,938 as of October 4, 2022, was treated as a cash consideration in accordance with
ASC 805.
The
Company incurred $ 806,397 of equity issuance costs in relation to issuing common and Series C Preferred Stock to acquire IFP. These costs
were recognized as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheets.
At
the Special Meeting on May 8, 2023, the last of the remaining Company Stockholder Approval Matters were approved when the Company’s
stockholders approved the full conversion of all Series C Preferred Stock and an increase in the number of shares authorized for issuance
under the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan (“2019 Plan” or the “Plan”). Subsequently, effective as of May 10, 2023,
all 3,512,277 shares of outstanding Series C Preferred Stock (which included the 1,149,273 Lender Preferred Shares, but not the 500,000
Closing Holdback Shares (which were not outstanding)) were converted into an aggregate of 43,902 shares of common stock (as adjusted
for Company’s Reverse Stock Splits).
The
500,000 “Closing Holdback Shares” were shares of Series C Preferred Stock that were held back from issuance to the IFP Sellers
for one year after the IFP Closing in order to secure potential indemnification claims by the Company against the IFP Sellers. Effective
one year after the IFP Closing, the 500,000 Closing Holdback Shares were issued and immediately converted into an aggregate of 6,248
shares of common stock (as adjusted for Company’s Reverse Stock Splits).
The
final allocation of the purchase price of IFP to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their relative fair values, is

occurrence of specified events including reverse stock splits.
The
Company accounts for warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts on an Entity’s
Own Equity, and determined that the warrants do not meet the criteria for liability treatment thereunder.
March
2024 Private Placement
On
March 8, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with several institutional
and accredited investors for the sale by the Company of (i) 675,183 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock,
(ii) Series I Pre-Funded Common Stock purchase warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,548,150
shares of common stock, (iii) Series H-1 warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,223,333 shares of common stock (the “Series
H-1 Warrants”), and (iv) Series H-2 warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,223,333 shares of common stock (the “Series
H-2 Warrants” and, collectively with the Series H-1 Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants, the “March Warrants”), in a private
placement offering (the “March 2024 Offering”). The combined purchase price of one share of common stock (or one Pre-Funded
Warrant) and accompanying Series H-1 Warrant and Series H-2 Warrant was $ 4.55 . The March 2024 Offering closed on March 12, 2024.
Subject
to certain ownership limitations, the March Warrants are exercisable upon issuance. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable into one share
of common stock at a price per share of $ 0.01 (as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof) and may be exercised
at any time until the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. Each Series H-1 Warrant and Series H-2 Warrant is exercisable into one
share of common stock at a price per share of $ 4.55 (as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof). The Series
H-1 Warrants have a term of eighteen months following the date a registration statement registering all warrant shares underlying the
Series H-1 Warrants is declared effective by the SEC. The Series H-2 Warrants have a term of exercise equal to five ( 5 ) years, which
will be reduced to 20 calendar days following any date the Company makes a public announcement of 510(k) clearance by the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration of the Company’s Intelligent Fingerprinting Drug Screening System.
F- 24
The
gross proceeds to the Company from the March 2024 Offering were approximately $ 10.10 million, before deducting the placement agent’s
fees and other offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the cash exercise of the March Warrants. The Company intends
to use the net proceeds from the March 2024 Offering for working capital and for general corporate purposes.
In
connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered in a Registration Rights Agreement and agreed to file by March 18, 2024,
a resale registration statement (the “Resale Registration Statement”) with the SEC covering all shares of common stock sold
to investors and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the March Warrants, which was effective as of March 28, 2024.
The
Shares, the March Warrants, and the shares issuable upon exercise of the March Warrants were sold and issued without registration under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2)
of the Securities Act as transactions not involving a public offering and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act
as sales to accredited investors, and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.
On
March 8, 2024, the Company entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (the “Agent”)
pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay the Agent (i) a cash fee equal to 8.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company in the
March 2024 Offering, (ii) a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company in the March 2024 Offering, (iii)
common stock purchase warrants to purchase such number of shares of common stock equal to 5% of the aggregate number Shares and Pre-Funded
Warrants sold in the March 2024 Offering, which warrants are to have an exercise price equal to 125% of the offering price per share
and an expiration date of 5 years from issuance (the “Placement Agent Warrants”); (iv) a cash fee equal to 9.0% of the gross
proceeds received by the Company from the cash exercise of any H-1 Warrants and H-2 Warrants; and (vi) reimbursement of the Agent’s
expenses in an amount up to $ 145,000 . The Placement Agent Warrants and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants
were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as transactions not involving
a public offering and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.
Warrant
Inducement Transaction
On
February 4, 2024, the Company entered into warrant inducement agreements (the “Inducement Agreements”) with certain accredited
and institutional holders (collectively, the “Holders”) of the Company’s outstanding Series E Warrants issued on October

17. INCOME TAX
The
Company computes income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes . Under
the asset and liability method, we determine deferred income tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial
reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and measure them using currently enacted tax rates and laws. The Company provides a
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are more likely than not to be realized. Realization of
our net operating loss carryforward was not reasonably assured as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, and we have recorded a valuation allowance
of $ 10,421,568 and $ 9,530,704 ,
respectively, against deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities.
The

18. LOSS PER SHARE
Basic
loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss allocable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock or common stock equivalents outstanding after adjusting for the February 2023 Reverse Stock Split, and the January 2024 Reverse
Stock Split. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that it reflects the potential dilution
that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
