NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
FOR
THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025 AND 2024
(In
thousands, except for share amounts and per share data)
NOTE
1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization
and Operations
Kairos
Pharma, Ltd. (the “Company” or “Kairos”) was incorporated on June 17, 2013 under the laws of the state of California
as NanoGB13, Inc. The Company changed its name to Kairos Pharma, Ltd. on July 15, 2016 and subsequently converted into a Delaware corporation
under the same name, Kairos Pharma, Ltd., on May 10, 2023. The Company is an early-stage biotechnology company focused on the development
of immunotherapy and cell therapy treatments for oncology.
Basis
of Presentation of Unaudited Financial Information
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2025. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance
with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these unaudited interim consolidated condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Annual
Report.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization
of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
During
the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $ 2,684 and used cash in operations of $ 1,519 . During that period,
the Company closed a private financing in which the Company received net proceeds of $ 3,058 and closed two financings from its Equity
Line of Credit (“ELOC”) for net proceeds of $ 210 . At June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $ 3,034
and shareholders’ equity of $ 5,997 . Subsequent to June 30, 2025, the Company closed an additional financing from its ELOC totaling
net proceeds of $ 3,693 (see Note 7). The Company expects its current cash reserves to fund the Company’s operations for at least
12 months from the date of this filing.
The
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company attaining and maintaining profitable operations
in the future, which will primarily be accomplished by raising additional capital to meet its operating needs and repay its
liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Since inception, the Company has funded its operations
primarily through equity and debt financings and the Company expects to continue to rely on these sources of capital
until such time as it is able to generate revenue.
No
assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to
the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, such financing may contain undue restrictions on our operations,
in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution to our stockholders, in the case of equity financing.

NOTE
2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Consolidation
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Enviro Therapeutics, Inc. (“Enviro”). All intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates are used
in the valuation of accruals for potential liabilities, amortization of deferred offering costs, valuations of stock-based compensation,
the realization of deferred tax assets, and impairment analysis and useful life for intangible assets among others. Actual results could
differ from these estimates.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of cash deposits. The Company maintains
deposits in federally insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. Management believes that the Company is not
exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the depository institutions in which those deposits are held. The
Company has not experienced any losses on deposits since its inception.
Cash
Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less on the date of purchase to be cash
equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalents consisted of $ 2,537 in money market funds as of June 30, 2025. There were no cash
equivalents as of December 31, 2024. The underlying securities in the money market funds held by the Company are all government
backed securities.
Intangible
Assets
The
Company’s intangible assets are stated at fair value as of the date acquired, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated
based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, which were determined to be five years , using the straight-line method. The intangible
asset consists of a licensing agreement that the Company acquired through its acquisition of Enviro during the year ended December 31,
2021, with an acquisition cost of $ 800 . Amortization expense relating to the intangible asset during the six months ended June 30, 2025
and 2024 was $ 80 , respectively, with an unamortized balance of $ 142 and $ 222 as of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
The
Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment , which addresses financial accounting and reporting
for the impairment of long-lived assets. A long-lived asset that is held and used should be tested for recoverability whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset group may not be recoverable. If the estimated undiscounted
future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment determination is required. In that event, a loss is recognized based
on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. No impairment was recorded relating to the
Company’s intangible asset during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
8
Income
(Loss) Per Share
Basic
loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common
shares during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive
potential common shares had been issued.
For
the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the basic and diluted shares outstanding were the same, as potentially dilutive shares were
considered anti-dilutive. The potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:

Total

Deferred
Offering Costs
The
Company capitalizes certain legal, professional, accounting and other third-party fees that are directly associated with in-process equity
issuances as deferred offering costs until such equity issuances are consummated. After consummation of the equity issuance, these costs
are recorded as a reduction in the capitalized amount associated with the equity issuance. Should the equity issuance be delayed or abandoned,
the deferred offering costs will be expensed immediately as a charge to operating expenses in the Statement of Operations. As of December
31, 2024, the Company incurred $ 1,377 of deferred offering costs related to the Company’s pending Equity Line of Credit (ELOC)
offering. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred $ 328 of additional costs related to the ELOC. The ELOC was
declared effective on April 24, 2025, and the Company will amortize these costs as cost of capital as the funds are raised, based upon
the Company’s estimate of the ultimate funds raised by the ELOC. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, $ 13 of deferred
offering costs were amortized as cost of capital, and as of June 30, 2025, total deferred offering costs were $ 1,692 related to the ELOC.
Fair
Value Measurements
The
Company determines the fair value of its assets and liabilities based on the exchange price in U.S. dollars that would be received to
sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability
in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize
the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy with three levels of
inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, to measure fair value:
●
Level
1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
●
Level
2 — Inputs, other than Level 1, that are observable, either directly or indirectly, 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.
The
carrying amounts of financial instruments such as cash, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate the related fair values
due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
Cash
equivalents consisted of money market funds at June 30, 2025. Money market funds were valued by the Company using quoted prices in active
markets for identical securities, which represent a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures
(Subtopic 220-40) Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The guidance in ASU 2024-03 requires public business entities to disclose
in the notes to the financial statements, among other things, specific information about certain costs and expenses including purchases
of inventory; employee compensation; and depreciation and amortization expense for each caption on the income statement where such expenses
are included. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments may be applied prospectively to reporting periods after the
effective date or retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the provisions of
this guidance and assessing the potential impact on our financial statement disclosures.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s
present or future consolidated financial statements.
NOTE
3 – VENDOR AGREEMENTS
Vendor
Advances
The
Company has entered into various contracts with service providers pursuant to which the Company pays the vendor an advance at the
beginning of the contractual period. These vendor advances could be paid by the Company either in cash or in shares of common stock,
depending on the terms of the contract. The advances are reduced by the accumulated value of the services performed by the vendor or
are amortized on a straight-line basis over the service period, whichever is shorter. As of December 31, 2024, advances to vendors
totaled $ 3,115 ,
with $ 2,615
being paid in cash and $ 500
being paid in shares of the Company’s common stock (see Note 4). Amortization expense relating to the vendor advances during
the year ended December 31, 2024 was $ 256 ,
with an unamortized balance of $ 2,859
as of December 31, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, an additional advance to a vendor totaled $ 156 ,
with the advance being paid in shares of the Company’s common stock (see Note 4), and amortization expense relating to the
vendor advances was $ 1,298 ,
with an unamortized balance of $ 1,717
as of June 30, 2025.

Agreement with Prevail Infoworks, Inc.
On
August 1, 2024, the Company entered into a master service and technology agreement with Prevail Infoworks, Inc.
(“Prevail”), pursuant to which Prevail agreed to provide certain clinical research services to the Company. As part of
the agreement, the Company was required to make an advance payment of $ 900 to Prevail before commencement of services and, at such
time as we notify Prevail to engage their services related to the relevant clinical trial, or six months from the date of the

Enviro
Therapeutics
On
June 2, 2021, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Enviro, entered into two Exclusive License Agreements with Cedars, which granted
Enviro exclusive licensing rights (which include the right to sublicense) with respect to certain patent rights owned by Cedars, as follows:
●
an Exclusive License Agreement (the “Enviro-Cedars License Agreement (Mitochondrial DNA)”) for Enviro to develop, manufacture, use and sell products utilized or derived from patent rights worldwide related to the “Compositions and Methods for Treating Diseases and Conditions by Depletion of Mitochondrial DNA from Circulation and for Detection of Mitochondrial DNA” invented by Dr. Neil Bhowmick and others; and
●
an Exclusive License Agreement (the “Enviro-Cedars License Agreement (Endoglin Antagonism)” and, collectively with the Enviro-Cedars License Agreement (Mitochondrial DNA), the “Enviro-Cedars License Agreements”) for Enviro to develop, manufacture, use and sell products utilized or derived from the patent rights and technical information worldwide related to the “Sensitization of Tumors to Therapies Through Endoglin Antagonism” invented by Dr. Neil Bhowmick and others.
15
In
exchange for each of the licenses, Enviro is required to pay an upfront license fee in the mid four-figures and low-five figures, respectively.
Enviro is also required to reimburse Cedars for the costs in the mid-to-high six figures incurred in the prosecution of the patent rights
subject to the Enviro-Cedars License Agreements prior to the date of execution of such agreements, and certain costs and fees then outstanding
aggregating in the low-six figures owed by Kairos pursuant to the Kairos-Cedars License Agreements. Pursuant to the Enviro-Cedars License
Agreements, Cedars shall also receive royalty payments of a mid-single-digit percentage of net sales of products associated with the
licensed patent right and less than one percent of net sales of other products derived from Cedars’ technical information, with
a minimum annual royalty fee in the low five-digits due beginning on the third anniversary of the effective date of the Enviro-Cedars
License Agreements. To the extent Enviro derives non-royalty sublicensing revenues, a high single-digit to low double-digit percentage
of such revenues would be due and payable to Cedars, with the actual percentage of such revenues dependent on the stage of FDA authorization
at the time the sublicense revenue is generated.
Enviro
is also required to pay Cedars in connection with achieving the following Payment Milestones relating to products derived from the patent
rights: successful completion of a Phase I clinical trial; successful completion of a Phase II clinical trial, receipt of FDA approval,
and approval for a Phase III clinical trial; FDA approval of an NDA or BLA; cumulative net sales exceeding $ 50,000 ; and cumulative net
sales exceeding $ 100,000 . If all of these payment milestones are met among both of the Enviro-Cedars License Agreements, the required
milestone payments would total in the mid-to-high seven-figures.
Pursuant
to the Enviro-Cedars License Agreements, Enviro is obligated to meet the following Commercialization Milestones. Pursuant to the Enviro-Cedars
License Agreement (Endoglin Antagonism), Enviro is obligated to (1) obtain an IND for a patent product within 1 year of the effective
date of the agreement, (2) commence a Phase II trial within 2 years of the effective date of the agreement, and (3) submit an NDA or
BLA to the FDA or equivalent regulatory agency in another jurisdiction within 7 years of the effective date of the agreement. Pursuant
to the Enviro-Cedars License Agreement (Mitochondrial DNA), Enviro is obligated to (1) complete preclinical studies of a patent product
within 2 years of the effective date of the agreement, (2) complete toxicology studies within 2.5 years of the effective date of the
agreement, (3) obtain IND within 3 years of the effective date of the agreement, (4) begin a Phase I trial within 4 years of the effective
date of the agreement, and (5) submit an NDA or BLA to the FDA or equivalent regulatory agency in another jurisdiction within 7 years

licenses into non-exclusive licenses or to a co-exclusive licenses or terminate the licenses.
The
Enviro-Cedars License Agreements will, unless sooner terminated, continue in effect on a country-by-country basis until the last of the
patents covering the patent rights or future patent rights expires. Under the terms of the Enviro-Cedars License Agreements, unless waived
by Cedars, the agreements would automatically terminate: (a) if Enviro ceases, dissolves or winds up its business operations; (b) if
performance by either party jeopardizes the licensure, accreditation or tax exempt status of Cedars or the agreement is deemed illegal
by a governmental body; (c) within 30 days for non-payment of royalties or if Enviro fails to undertake commercially reasonable efforts
to exploit the patent rights or future patent rights; (d) within 60 days of Cedars’ failure to cure any breach or default of a

Overview
We
are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company advancing therapeutics for cancer patients that are designed to overcome key hurdles in
immune suppression and drug resistance.
Our
mission is to advance our portfolio of innovative therapeutics to reverse key mechanisms of therapeutic resistance and immune suppression
and transform the way cancer is treated. We have leveraged molecular insights of the mechanisms of therapeutic resistance and immune
suppression to develop a new class of novel drugs that are designed to target drug resistance and checkpoints of immune suppression. As
of the date of this Quarterly Report, our product candidates have not been approved as safe or effective by the FDA or any other comparable
foreign regulator.
18
Since
inception, our operations have focused on organizing and staffing our Company, business planning, raising capital, acquiring and developing
our technology, establishing our intellectual property portfolio, identifying potential product candidates, and undertaking preclinical
and clinical studies and manufacturing. We do not have any products approved for sale and have not generated any revenue from product
sales.
Since
inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. Our net losses were $2,684 and $2,603, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2025
and the year ended December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $11,499. We expect to continue
to incur significant and increasing expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future, as we advance our current and future product
candidates through preclinical and clinical development, manufacture drug product and drug supply, seek regulatory approval for our current
and future product candidates, maintain and expand our intellectual property portfolio, hire additional research and development and
business personnel, and operate as a public company.
We
will not generate revenue from product sales unless and until we successfully complete our clinical trials and obtain regulatory approval
for our product candidates. In addition, if we obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates and do not enter into a third-party
commercialization partnership, we will likely incur significant expenses related to developing our commercialization capability to support
product sales, marketing, manufacturing, and distribution activities.
As
a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until we can
generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through a combination of public or private
equity offerings and debt financings and other sources, such as potential collaboration agreements, strategic alliances and licensing
arrangements. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on acceptable
terms, or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and when needed could have a material adverse effect
on our business, results of operations and financial condition. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available
or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing,
it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders,
in case of equity financing.
Recent
Developments
Equity
Line of Credit Agreement (ELOC)
On
November 12, 2024, we entered into an ELOC agreement (the “ELOC Agreement”) with Helena Global Investment Opportunities I
LTD (“Helena”), pursuant to which Helena agreed to purchase from the Company up to $30,000 of common stock (the “ELOC
Shares”), which the Company may exercise at any time following effectiveness of a registration statement at a price equal
to the 95% of the lowest trading price during the three days following the Company’s notice to Helena to exercise the ELOC Agreement. The Company issued 670,641 shares of restricted common stock (the “Commitment Fee Shares”) to Helena as a
“Commitment Fee” for the ELOC Agreement. The ELOC Agreement became available for the Company’s use following
the filing and effectiveness of a resale registration statement registering the ELOC Shares for resale. Following effectiveness
of the resale registration statement (the “Effective Date”), the Commitment Fee Shares were subject to a “true-up”
pursuant to which, as the shares are valued at less than $900 on the Effective Date, additional shares were issued to Helena
to bring the ELOC Shares to the full $900 value.
The
ELOC Agreement will terminate upon the following events: (i) the first day of the month next following the 36-month anniversary of
the date of the ELOC Agreement or (ii) the date on which Helena has purchased the full $30,000 of ELOC Shares. The ELOC
Agreement may also be terminated by the Company after its commencement, at the Company’s discretion, provided that there are
no advance notices outstanding for which common stock has yet to be issued, and the Company has paid all amounts owed to Helena
under the ELOC Agreement, including the Commitment Fee shares.
At the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders on June 10, 2025, a majority of the Company’s shareholders
approved the issuance in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s common stock at a price below market value, in accordance with the terms
of the ELOC Agreement and in compliance with Rule 713 of the NYSE American LLC Company Guide.
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, in connection with the ELOC Agreement, the Company sold 510,000 shares of
our common stock to Helena for net proceeds of $210. The shares were issued to Helena during the three and six months ended June 30,
2025.
19
Subsequent
to June 30, 2025, in connection with the ELOC Agreement, the Company sold 3,000,000 shares of our common stock to Helena
for net proceeds of $3,693, excluding certain related costs. The shares were issued to Helena in July 2025.
As
of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have sold an aggregate of 3,510,000 shares of our common stock for net
proceeds of $3,903 under the ELOC Agreement. Boustead Securities LLC (“Boustead”) and D. Boral Capital LLC
(“D. Boral”) acted as placement agents (the “Placement Agents”) in the ELOC offering and, following each exercise,
are entitled to cash compensation of 7%, 1% non-accountable fees and warrants equal to 7%. To date, the Placement Agents have received
total cash compensation equal to $313,225 and a total of 245,750 warrants to purchase common stock, exercisable at exercise prices of
$0.40, $0.46 and $1,2308 per share, which warrants will expire five years from the date of grant.
January
2025 PIPE Offering
On
January 14, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) and registration rights
agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the investor name therein (the “Investor”) for the sale
and issuance of 2,500,000 units (the “Pre-Funded Units”), with each Pre-Funded Unit consisting of a pre-funded warrant (the
“Pre-Funded Warrant”) to purchase one share of common stock, exercisable for $0.001 per share, and a common warrant (the
“Common Warrant”) to purchase one and one half shares of common stock, exercisable at $1.40 per share (the “January
2025 PIPE Offering”).
On
January 16, 2025, the Company closed the January 2025 PIPE Offering for a total purchase price of $3,498 (or $1.399 per Pre-Funded Unit),
with an additional $2 payable upon the Investor’s exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants in full.
In
advance of closing, on January 16, 2025, the Company and the Investor entered into an amended and restated Purchase Agreement
(the “A&R Purchase Agreement”), which amended the terms of the Purchase Agreement to include a requirement that the Company
obtain shareholder approval prior to issuing in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s common stock and also amended the Common Warrants
to make them immediately exercisable and reduce the exercise period from 5.5 years to five years. Other terms of the Purchase Agreement
and Common Warrants remained the same.
Boustead
and D. Boral acted as co-placement agents for the January 2025 PIPE Offering. In conjunction therewith, on January 16, 2025, the Company
entered into a Placement Agent Agreement with Boustead (the “Placement Agent Agreement”). Under the terms of the
Placement Agent Agreement, at closing, the Company paid the Placement Agents (i) a cash commission equal to 8% of the gross proceeds
(including a 1% non-accountable expense fee) and (ii) warrants to purchase a total of 175,000 shares of common stock, exercisable at
$1.40 per share, with the total cash and warrant compensation split equally between the Placement Agents.
On
January 20, 2025, the Company obtained the approval of 55.4% of the shareholders (the “Majority Shareholders”) for the issuance
in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s common stock at a price below market value, in compliance with Rule 713 of the NYSE American
LLC Company Guide. On February 10, 2025, the Company filed the definitive Schedule 14C and the shareholder approval became effective
on March 1, 2025.
Components
of Results of Operations
Net
Sales
We
have not generated any sales to date. No revenue was recorded from any sources during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Operating
Expenses
Our
operating expenses consist of (i) research and development expenses and (ii) general and administrative expenses.
Research
and Development Expenses
Dr.
Ramachandran Murali is our Vice President of Research and Development. Dr. Murali is a doctor and scientist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center,
and is the inventor, with others, of three of the patented technologies that are subject to the Kairos-Cedars license agreements.
20
We
are engaged in rolling out our Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials for ENV 105 and a Phase 1 trial for KROS 201. In addition, we are
continuously performing preclinical research including animal models of disease, medicinal chemistry laboratory studies, formulation,
and toxicology and biodistribution studies. Our clinical development costs may vary significantly based on factors such as: per patient
trial costs; the number of trials required for approval; the number of sites included in the trials; the location where the trials are
conducted; the length of time required to enroll eligible patients; the number of patients that participate in the trials; the number
of doses that patients receive; the drop-out or discontinuation rates of patients; potential additional safety monitoring requested by
regulatory agencies; the duration of patient participation in the trials and follow-up; the cost and timing of manufacturing our product
candidates; the phase of development of our product candidates; and the efficacy and safety profile of our product candidates.
The
successful development and commercialization of product candidates is highly uncertain. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties
associated with product development and commercialization, including the following: the timing and progress of nonclinical and clinical
development activities; the number and scope of nonclinical and clinical programs we decide to pursue; raising necessary additional funds;
the progress of the development efforts of parties with whom we may enter into collaboration arrangements; our ability to maintain our
current development program and to establish new ones; our ability to establish new licensing or collaboration arrangements; the successful
initiation and completion of clinical trials with safety, tolerability and efficacy profiles that are satisfactory to the FDA or any
comparable foreign regulatory authority; the receipt and related terms of regulatory approvals from applicable regulatory authorities;
the availability of drug substance and drug product for use in production of our product candidate; establishing and maintaining agreements
with third-party manufacturers for clinical supply for our clinical trials and commercial manufacturing, if our product candidates are
approved; our ability to obtain and maintain patents, trade secret protection and regulatory exclusivity, both in the United States and
internationally; our ability to protect our rights in our intellectual property portfolio; the commercialization of our product candidates,
if and when approved; obtaining and maintaining third-party insurance coverage and adequate reimbursement; the acceptance of our product
candidate, if approved, by patients, the medical community and third-party payors; competition with other products; the impact of any
business interruptions to our operations, including the timing and enrollment of patients in our planned clinical trials, or to those
of our manufacturers, suppliers, or other vendors resulting from any pandemic or public health crisis; and a continued acceptable safety
profile of our therapies following approval.
A
change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of our product candidates could significantly change
the costs and timing associated with the development of that product candidate. We may never succeed in obtaining regulatory approval
for any of our product candidates.
General
and administrative expenses
General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel in executive, finance, corporate and
business development, as well as administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include legal fees relating to
patent, corporate, IPO-related matters, and SEC reporting matters; professional fees for accounting, auditing, tax and
administrative consulting services; insurance costs; administrative travel expenses; marketing expenses and other operating
costs.
We
anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we increase our headcount to support our business
operations. We also anticipate that we will incur increased accounting, audit, legal, regulatory, compliance, and director and officer
insurance costs, as well as investor and public relations expenses associated with being a public company.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
During
the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,684 and used cash in operations of $1,519. During that
period, the Company closed a private financing in which the Company received net proceeds of $3,058 and closed two financings from
the Equity Line of Credit (“ELOC”) for net proceeds of $223. At June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents
totaling $3,034 and shareholders’ equity of $5,997. Subsequent to June 30, 2025, the Company closed an additional financing
from the ELOC totaling net proceeds of $3,693. The Company expects our current cash reserves to fund the Company’s operations
for at least 12 months from the date of this filing.
The
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company attaining and maintaining profitable operations
in the future, which will primarily be accomplished by raising additional capital to meet our operating needs and repay our
liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Since inception, the Company has funded our operations
primarily through equity and debt financings and we expect to continue to rely on these sources of capital in the future until it
is able to generate revenues.
No
assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to
the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, such financing may contain undue restrictions on our operations,
in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in the case of equity financing.

Operating
Activities
During
the six months ended June 30, 2025, we used cash from operating activities of $1,519, as compared to $132 used during the six months
ended June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred a net loss of $2,684 and had non-cash expenses of
$1,531, as compared to a net loss of $576 and non-cash expenses of $119 during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The primary
non-cash expense in 2025 was the amortization of vendor advances of $1,298.
The
net change in operating assets and liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2025 used cash of $366, as compared to $325
provided during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The primary use of cash relating to operating assets and liabilities during the
six months ended June 30, 2025, was the decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The primary source of cash during the six
months ended June 30, 2024, was the increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Financing
Activities
During
the six months ended June 30, 2025, we provided cash from financing activities of $3,281, as compared to $60 provided during the six
months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, cash provided by financing activities consisted of proceeds from
our private financing of $3,058 and proceeds of $223 from our ELOC. Net cash provided in 2024 was from proceeds from notes payable
– officers of $102. Net cash used in 2024 consisted of the payment of deferred offering costs of $42.
Funding
Requirements
We
expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing research activities, particularly as we pursue the advancement
of our product candidates through clinical trials. In addition, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public
company. The timing and amount of our operating expenditures will depend on numerous variables, including: the initiation, progress,
timing, costs and results of the clinical trials for our product candidates or any future product candidates we may develop; the initiation,
progress, timing, costs and results of nonclinical studies for our product candidates or any future product candidates we may develop;
our ability to maintain our relationships with key collaborators; the outcome, timing and cost of seeking and obtaining regulatory approvals
from the FDA and comparable foreign regulatory authorities, including the potential for such authorities to require that we perform more
nonclinical studies or clinical trials than those that we currently expect or change their requirements on studies that had previously
been agreed to; the cost to establish, maintain, expand, enforce and defend the scope of our intellectual property portfolio, including
the amount and timing of any payments we may be required to make, or that we may receive, in connection with licensing, preparing, filing,
prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patents or other intellectual property rights; the effect of competing technological and market
developments; the costs of continuing to grow our business, including hiring key personnel and maintain or acquiring operating space;
market acceptance of any approved product candidates, including product pricing, as well as product coverage and the adequacy of reimbursement
by third-party payors; the cost of acquiring, licensing or investing in additional businesses, products, product candidates and technologies;
the cost and timing of selecting, auditing and potentially validating a manufacturing site for commercial-scale manufacturing; the cost
of establishing sales, marketing and distribution capabilities for any product candidates for which we may receive regulatory approval
and that we determine to commercialize; and our need to implement additional internal systems and infrastructure, including financial
and reporting systems.
We
believe that our existing cash, including the net proceeds we received from the IPO and the January 2025 PIPE Offering, will enable us
to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. We have based this estimate on assumptions
that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect. We expect that we will continue
to require additional funding to complete the clinical development and commercialization of our product candidates, if we receive regulatory
approval, and pursue in-licenses or acquisitions of other product candidates. If we receive regulatory approval for our product candidates,
we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution, depending
on where we choose to commercialize ourselves.
25
Until
such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity
and debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties. To
the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, ownership interest may be materially
diluted, and the terms of such securities could include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our current
common stockholder. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants
that limit our ability to take specified actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends.
If we raise funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties,
we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant
licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other
arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, reduce or eliminate our product development or future commercialization efforts,
or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.
Contractual
Obligations and Commitments
Kairos
Agreement with Prevail Infoworks, Inc.
In
August 2024, the Company entered into a master service and technology agreement with Prevail Infoworks, Inc. (“Prevail”),
pursuant to which Prevail agreed to provide certain clinical research services to the Company. As part of the agreement, the Company
was required to make an advance payment of $900 to Prevail before they begin their services. At such time as we notify Prevail to engage
their services related to the relevant clinical trial, or six months from the date of the agreement, we will be required to pay approximately
$80 per month during the time Prevail performs such clinical research services. The agreement with Prevail is subject to cancellation
at any time upon 30 days’ written notice to the other party. The Company made the advance payment to Prevail in October 2024.
Kairos
Agreement with PreCheck Health Services, Inc.
On
September 20, 2024, the Company entered into a bioassay services agreement (the “Bioassay Services Agreement”) with PreCheck
Health Services, Inc., a Florida-based corporation (“PreCheck”). Pursuant to the Bioassay Services Agreement, PreCheck will
provide certain biomarker screening services for the Company’s ongoing carotuximab (ENV 105) clinical trials in order to assist
the Company in identifying lung and prostate cancer patients suitable to the Company’s ongoing Phase 1 clinical trials for lung
cancer patients and Phase 2 trials for patients with castrate resistant prostate cancer. In order to identify biomarkers for patient
screening and therapy monitoring using carotuximab (ENV 105), PreCheck will utilize its SolidTumorCheck+ platform for the somatic gene
expression analysis of biopsy tissue samples derived from patients with lung and prostate cancer, as part of the Company’s ongoing
clinical trials. In furtherance of these efforts, PreCheck will develop a companion diagnostic to support its identification of such
patients with a three gene PCR analysis or other genetic analysis, which diagnostic test will then be developed and submitted to the
FDA for castrate-resistant prostate cancer patients and for lung cancer patients on Tagrisso. In exchange for PreCheck’s services,
and according to the terms of the Bioassay Services Agreement, the Company paid $900 to PreCheck as an advance for the future laboratory
services to be performed. The term of the agreement is one year from the effective date.
Kairos
Agreement with CEO.CA Technologies Ltd.
On
September 23, 2024, the Company entered into an advisory and consulting services agreement (the “CEO.CA Agreement”) with
CEO.CA Technologies Ltd., a Canadian company (“CEO.CA”), pursuant to which CEO.CA will provide certain internet-based financial
information and communications services for a period of one year for a services fee of $250. The service fee is an advance on future
services to be performed. The CEO.CA Agreement includes such services as strategic news placement, news releases, interviews, monthly
analytics and a video launch. The CEO.CA Agreement contains other customary clauses, including representations and warranties, indemnification
clauses and governing law clauses.

3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks.
As
a “smaller reporting company,” we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item
4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The
term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, refers to
controls and procedures 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 such
information is accumulated and communicated to a company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial
officers, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation
of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness
of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2025.
In
designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter
how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls
and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply
its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any system of
controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any
design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because
of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations
in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Status
of Previously Disclosed Material Weakness
As
previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024, we identified the below material weakness
in our internal controls over financial reporting:
●
Due
to our size and stage of development, segregation of all conflicting duties is not always possible or economically feasible. As of June
30, 2025, we continue to lack sufficient review procedures and segregation of duties such that proper review had not been performed by
someone other than the preparer, including manual journal entries, and that process documentation is lacking for review
There
have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2025 that
has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting as
necessary.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act)
that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting. However, the Company will continue to monitor and work to address the underlying causes
of material weaknesses and control deficiencies. Such material weaknesses and control deficiencies will not be fully remediated until
the Company has concluded that our internal controls are operating effectively for a sufficient period of time.

on our business, financial condition or operating results, although from time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings in

based on the nature and risks of our business, historical experience and industry standards.
