RENOVARO INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
– On February 13, 2024, the Company changed its corporate name from Renovaro
Biosciences Inc. to Renovaro Inc. (“Renovaro”, and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we”
or “us”). Renovaro Inc. operates through two subsidiaries, Renovaro Biosciences and Renovaro Cube. Renovaro Cube refers to
Renovaro Cube Intl Ltd. (formerly known as GediCube Intl. Ltd.) and its wholly owned subsidiaries GediCube, B.V. and Grace Systems B.V.,
which were acquired on February 13, 2024.
Renovaro Biosciences is a biotechnology
company intending to develop advanced allogeneic cell and gene therapies to promote stronger immune system responses potentially for long-term
or life-long cancer remission in some of the deadliest cancers, and potentially to treat or cure serious infectious diseases such as Human
Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infections. Renovaro Cube is an AI-driven healthcare technology company focusing on the earliest possible
detection of cancer and its recurrence. Renovaro Cube has developed a proprietary AI platform that analyzes genetics using Explainable
AI to provide earlier and more accurate cancer diagnosis.
Basis of Presentation –
The Company prepares consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and follows the rules and regulations of the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations
and cash flows at September 30, 2024, and 2023 and for the periods then ended have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company’s June 30, 2024 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2024 are
not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Consolidation – For
the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, the condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations
of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation.
Accounting Estimates –
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimated. Significant estimates include the fair value of assets acquired in a business acquisition, contingent consideration,
and equity instruments issued for goods or services.
Functional Currency & Foreign
Currency Translation – The functional currency of Renovaro Biosciences Denmark ApS is the Danish Kroner (“DKK”)
and the functional currency of Renovaro Cube is the Euro (“EUR”). The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar
for the purpose of these financial statements. The Company’s balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end
exchange rates and all revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates prevailing during the periods
ended September 30, 2024, and 2023. Translation gains and losses are deferred and accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income
in stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations from transactions denominated in
a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statement of operations as incurred.
Recently Adopted Accounting
Pronouncements – In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “ Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable
Segment Disclosures ,” which requires 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 reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets
that are currently required annually. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods
within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU on July 1, 2024. The
adoption of this ASU had no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
7
In December
2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “ Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ,” which enhances
the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring; (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation
of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments
to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with
early adoption permitted. These amendments are to be applied prospectively, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact this standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company
currently believes there are no other issued and not yet effective accounting standards that are materially relevant to our condensed
consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2 — GOING CONCERN
The Company’s consolidated
financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates
the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has incurred substantial
recurring losses from continuing operations, has used cash in the Company’s continuing operations, and is dependent on additional
financing to fund operations. The Company incurred a net loss of $ 44,212,036 and $ 9,175,028 for the quarters ended September 30, 2024
and 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $ 220,571 and an accumulated deficit of
$ 368,891,461 and a working capital deficit of $ 21,087,220 . These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The consolidated financial statements
do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities
that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.
Management has reduced overhead and administrative costs by streamlining the organization
to focus around the development and validation of its AI-driven cancer diagnostics platform. The Company has tailored its workforce to
focus on these activities. In addition, the Company intends to secure additional required funding through equity or debt financing. However,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain any sources of funding. Such additional funding may not be available
or may not be available on reasonable terms, and, in the case of equity financing transactions, could result in significant additional
dilution to our stockholders. If we do not obtain required additional equity or debt funding, our cash resources will be depleted and
we could be required to materially reduce or suspend operations, which would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, stock
price and our relationships with third parties with whom we have business relationships, at least until additional funding is obtained.
If we do not have sufficient funds to continue operations, we could be required to seek bankruptcy protection or other alternatives that
could result in our stockholders losing some or all of their investment in us.
Funding that we may receive during the fiscal year
2025 is expected to be used to satisfy existing and future obligations and liabilities and working capital needs, to support commercialization
of our products, to conduct the clinical and regulatory work to develop our product candidates, and to begin building working capital
reserves.
NOTE 3 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company accounts for fair value
measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements”.
The authoritative guidance among other things, 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 nonrecurring basis. Fair value
is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be 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 guidance
establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
8
●
Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
●
Level 2. Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
●
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
There were no Level 1, 2 or 3 assets,
nor any Level 1 or 2 liabilities as of September 30, 2024.
Unless otherwise disclosed, the
fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued
expenses, lease obligations and notes payable approximate their recorded values due to their short-term maturities.
Level 3 liabilities held as of September 30, 2024, consisted of a contingent consideration
liability related to the February 13, 2014 acquisition of Renovaro Cube, (the “Acquisition”).
As consideration for the Acquisition, the stockholders of Renovaro Cube received (i) 70,834,183 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) the right
to receive contingent shares pro rata upon the exercise of convertible notes, options, and warrants, which were outstanding at closing.
The contingent consideration liability was recorded at fair value of $20,557,500 at the time of the Acquisition and is subsequently remeasured
to fair value at the end of each reporting period. As of September 30, 2024, there were 7,613,301 contingent shares issuable in connection
with the Acquisition.
The fair value of the contingent consideration liability is estimated using
a Black-Scholes option-pricing model and a Monte-Carlo option pricing model. The key inputs to the model are all contractual or observable
with the exception being volatility, which is computed based on the volatility of the Company’s underlying stock. The key inputs
to valuing the contingent consideration liability as of September 30, 2024, were:
Schedule of contingent consideration liability
Stock Price
$ 0.48
Exercise Price
$ 0.46 - $ 8.23
Volatility
113 % - 134 %
Risk Free Rate
3.52 % - 4.31 %
Expected Dividends
0 %
Expected Term (years)
0.48 – 9.25
The following table sets forth
the Level 3 liability at September 30, 2024, which is recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value on a recurring basis.
As required, this liability is classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

NOTE 4 — INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL
On February 13, 2024, the Company
acquired Renovaro Cube as a wholly owned subsidiary pursuant to a stock purchase agreement. As part of the acquisition of Renovaro
Cube, the Company acquired goodwill valued at $ 159,464,039 .
Impairment – During the quarter ended September
30, 2024, the results of the assessment indicated that the carrying value of the RENC reporting unit exceeded its fair value, due to the
changes in the projected economic benefits to be realized from this reporting unit. Management concluded the significant driver for the
change in the economic benefits was due to the Company’s continued inability to raise capital for the further development of the
technologies within this reporting unit. Therefore, an impairment adjustment of $ 47,614,729 was recorded for the period ended September
30, 2024.
At September 30, 2024 and June
30, 2024, definite-life and indefinite-life intangible assets consisted of the following:

NOTE 10 — ACQUISITION
On September
28, 2023, the Company, entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “ Purchase Agreement ”)
with GEDi Cube Intl Ltd., a private company formed under the laws of England and Wales (“ GEDi
Cube ”) to acquire 100% of the equity interests of GEDi Cube from its equity holders (the “ Sellers ”).
On September 28, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company, and the board of managers of GEDi Cube unanimously approved the Purchase
Agreement and on January 25, 2024, the shareholders of the Company approved the issuance of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement. On February 13, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the Company consummated the acquisition of GEDi Cube and the
other transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction”). As a result of the Transaction,
GEDi Cube became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Pursuant
to the Stock Purchase Agreement, as of the Closing Date, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding equity interests of GEDi
Cube owned by the Sellers as of the Closing Date (each, a “GEDi Cube Share” and, collectively, the “GEDi Cube Shares”)
in exchange for which each Seller was entitled to receive (i) as of the Closing Date, such Seller’s pro rata percentage of an aggregate
of 70,834,183 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”), which represents the 67,224,089
shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date (minus (a) 1 million shares of Common Stock previously issued to
a consultant assisting with the Transaction and (b) 1 million shares of Common Stock previously issued to Avram Miller, a director of
the Company, pursuant to his Advisory Agreement, dated October 11, 2023, by and between Mr. Miller and the Company) (the “Closing
Consideration”) plus 5,610,100 shares of Common Stock representing the Seller’s Earnout Shares (defined below) resulting from
the automatic conversion of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred and, (ii) following the Closing Date, such Seller’s
pro rata percentage of the shares of Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares” and, together with the Closing Consideration, the
“Exchange Consideration”) to be issued to the Sellers upon the exercise or conversion of any of the Company’s derivative
securities (subject to certain exceptions) that are outstanding at the Closing Date (the “Closing Derivative Securities”).
Each Seller’s pro rata percentage of the Exchange Consideration is equal to the ratio of the aggregate number of GEDi Cube Shares
owned by such Seller divided by the aggregate number of GEDi Cube Shares issued and outstanding, in each case, as of the Closing Date.
The
transaction was accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805-10 - Business Combinations . As a result
of the issuance of the Closing Consideration on the Closing Date and based on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the
Closing Date, the Sellers held approximately 49% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately following the closing
of the Transaction and the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
The assets
acquired and liabilities assumed were initially recognized provisionally in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at their estimated
fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values as of the acquisition date are based on information that existed as of the acquisition
date. The Company completed its accounting for this acquisition during the period ended June 30, 2024. As a result of the completion of
the Company’s analysis, the amount of provisional in-process research and development was determined to have a value of nil. Accordingly,
the amount of goodwill recognized was increased to include the previously recognized provisional amount of in-process research and development.
There was no impact to the Company’s consolidated statement of operations as a result of this change to the provisional allocation.
The acquisition-date
fair value of the consideration transferred totaled approximately $ 156.6 million, which consisted of the following:
Schedule of acquisition date fair value
Common stock
$ 136,001,631
Contingent consideration
20,557,500
Total consideration transferred
$ 156,559,131
The
fair value of the Company’s common shares issued as consideration was based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock
as of the Acquisition Date. The fair value of the contingent consideration was based on the Sellers’ right to receive additional
shares of common, pro rata, upon the exercise or conversion of warrants, options and convertible notes payables outstanding as of the
Closing Date.
