PROFUSA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Note 1 — Organization, Description of Business, Going Concern
and Significant Risks and Uncertainties
Description of Business
Profusa, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state
of California on May 11, 2009 . The Company is engaged in the development of a new generation of biointegrated sensors that potentially
empowers the individual with the ability to monitor their unique body chemistry.
The Company’s technology enables the development of bioengineered
sensors that are designed to become one with the body to detect and continuously transmit actionable, clinical-grade data for personal
and medical use. The Company’s first offering in the European Union, the Lumee™ Oxygen Platform, is designed to report reliable
tissue oxygen levels at various regions of interest, both acutely and long-term. The Lumee™ Oxygen Platform has been designed for
use in applications where monitoring of compromised tissue is beneficial, such as peripheral artery disease that results in narrowing
of blood vessels and reduced blood flow to the lower limbs; chronic wounds (diabetic ulcers, pressure sores) that do not heal properly;
and reconstructive surgery.
The Company’s research and development efforts are primarily
focused on its Lumee™ Glucose Platform which is a system designed to monitor glucose levels in interstitial fluid, continuously
and long-term. A tiny, biocompatible gel injected under the skin acts as a continuous glucose monitor (“CGM”) for several
months. The ability of Lumee™ Glucose to provide continuous glucose monitoring with only an initial single injection, is an attractive
alternative for people with diabetes to manage their disease without the need for frequent finger sticks required by standard glucometers,
or the need for weekly sensor replacement as required by current short-term needle-type CGMs.
On July 11, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), NorthView Acquisition
Corporation (“Northview”), consummated its previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”)
with Profusa, Inc., a California corporation (“Legacy Profusa”), pursuant to that certain Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization,
dated as of November 7, 2022 (as the same has been amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”),
between Northview, Legacy Profusa, and NV Profusa Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Northview
(“Merger Sub” and, collectively, the “Parties”). The consummation of the Business Combination involved the merger
(the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into Legacy Profusa, pursuant to which, at the closing of the transactions contemplated
by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased, with Legacy Profusa as the
surviving corporation becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Northview, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. As a result of the
Business Combination, Northview owns 100 % of the outstanding common stock of Legacy Profusa. In connection with the closing of the Business
Combination, Northview changed its name from “NorthView Acquisition Corporation” to “Profusa, Inc.”
Going Concern
The Company has incurred significant net operating losses from operations.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company has a working capital deficit of approximately $( 19.3 ) million. For the nine months ended September
30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $( 27.3 ) million and used approximately $( 11.1 ) million of cash in operating
activities. Management expects to continue to incur additional substantial losses in the foreseeable future as a result of research and
development activities. The Company has been able to finance its operations primarily with the proceeds from the issuance of equity and
debt instruments and to a lesser extent, revenues from government grants. Additional funds may be necessary to maintain current operations
and will be required for successful product commercialization efforts.
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. The Company has reviewed the relevant conditions and events surrounding its ability to continue as a going concern
including among others: historical losses, projected future results, increased tariffs, cash requirements for the upcoming year, funding
capacity, net working capital deficit, and future access to capital.
On February 11, 2025, NorthView executed a Securities Purchase
Agreement (the “PIPE Subscription Agreement”) with Ascent Partners Fund LLC (“Ascent” or together with any party
who may become party to the PIPE Subscription Agreement, the “PIPE Investors”).
6
On July 11, 2025, the Company consummated the Business Combination. At the Closing and pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreement,
Profusa issued a PIPE Convertible Note in the principal amount of $ 10,000,000 (the “Initial Note”) for a purchase price
of $ 9,000,000 , reflecting a 10 % Original Issuance Discount (“OID”). Management believes this liquidity is not sufficient to
alleviate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
within one year from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
On July 28, 2025, the Company entered into the PIPE Subscription
Agreement and the Equity Line of Credit (“ELOC”) Registration Rights Agreement (the “ELOC Registration Rights Agreement”)
with Ascent (the “Committed Equity Facility”). Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained
in the PIPE Subscription Agreement, from and after the effective date, the Company will have the right, in its sole discretion, to
sell to Ascent up to $ 100,000,000 of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”),
subject to certain limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement, from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement. Sales
of Common Stock by the Company to Ascent under the Purchase Agreement, and the timing of any such sales, are solely at the Company’s
option, and the Company is under no obligation to sell any securities to Ascent under the Purchase Agreement. As of September 30, 2025,
approximately $ 3.5 million in shares of its Common Stock was sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Company has entered into
this strategic Committed Equity Facility in order to continue to fund operating cash flows.
On September 30, 2025, the Company met the requirements for the second
tranche of the PIPE Subscription Agreement and Ascent purchased Convertible Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $ 2,222,222 for
a purchase price of $ 2,000,000 (reflecting a 10 % OID) (“Second Purchase”).
In accordance with the Company’s Bitcoin treasury strategy, the
Company purchased 8.53 coins as of September 30, 2025, for a value of $ 1.0 million. The Company has a buy-and hold investment strategy;
however, this investment additionally may act as a source of liquidity for the Company’s operating cash flow requirements as needed.
The Company is currently working towards meeting regulatory
requirements in Europe in order to commercialize the Lumee Oxygen reader in order to generate revenues in early 2026. In addition to
management’s focus on commercialization, additional financing is available through the sale of Common Stock and executing
tranches three and four of the PIPE Subscription Agreement which would provide an aggregate of up to an additional $ 10.0 million in
cash for operating expenses to further the product research and development.
Subsequent to the Closing, there continue to be factors which raise
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the condensed consolidated
financial statements are issued. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.
On September 11, 2025, Profusa, Inc. (the “Company”) received
a notice (the “MVLS Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”)
notifying the Company that, based upon its review of the market value of listed securities (“MVLS”) of the Company’s
common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), from July 29, 2025 to September 10, 2025, the Company no longer
meets Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A), which requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Global Market to maintain a minimum MVLS of $ 50,000,000 .
The Company has been provided a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until March 10, 2026, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing
Rule 5450(b)(2)(A). If at any time during this compliance period, the Common Stock’s MVLS closes at $ 50,000,000 or more for a minimum
of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance and this matter will be closed,
provided, however that Nasdaq may, in its discretion, require the Company to maintain the minimum MVLS for a period in excess of ten consecutive
business days, but generally no more than 20 consecutive business days, before determining that the Company has demonstrated an ability
to maintain long-term compliance.
In the event the Company does not regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing
Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) prior to the expiration of the compliance period, the Company will receive written notification that the Company’s
securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a hearings panel. The Company
is monitoring the MVLS of its listed securities and is considering available options to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued
listing standards. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A)
or maintain compliance with other applicable Nasdaq listing requirements.
7
On September 11, 2025, the Company received a second notice (the “Bid
Price Notice”, and together with the MVLS Notice, the “Notices”) from Nasdaq notifying the Company that, based upon
its review of the closing bid price of the Common Stock, from July 29, 2025 to September 10, 2025, the Company no longer meets Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), which requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Global Market to maintain a minimum bid price of $ 1.00 per share.
The Company has been provided a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until March 10, 2026, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing
Rule 5450(a)(1). If at any time during this compliance period, the Common Stock has a closing bid price bid price of at least $ 1.00 per
share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance and this
matter will be closed, provided, however that Nasdaq may, in its discretion, require the Company to maintain the minimum bid price for
a period in excess of ten consecutive business days, but generally no more than 20 consecutive business days, before determining that
the Company has demonstrated an ability to maintain long-term compliance.
In the event the Company does not regain compliance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) prior to the expiration of the compliance period, then Nasdaq may grant the Company a second 180 calendar
day period to regain compliance, provided, among other things, the Company meets the continued listing requirement for market value
of publicly-held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Global Market, other than the minimum bid price
requirement, and notifies Nasdaq of its intent to cure the deficiency. If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted
compliance periods, including any extensions that may be granted by Nasdaq, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Common Stock will be
subject to delisting. The Company would then be entitled to appeal that determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. The Company is
monitoring the minimum bid price of its listed securities and is considering available options to regain compliance with
Nasdaq’s continued listing standards. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) or maintain compliance with other applicable Nasdaq listing requirements.
Significant Risks and Uncertainties
The Company operates in a dynamic and highly competitive industry and
believes that changes in any of the following areas could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows: ability to obtain future financing; advances and trends in new technologies and industry standards;
results of clinical trials; regulatory approval and market acceptance of the Company’s products; development of sales channels;
certain strategic relationships; litigation or claims against the Company based on intellectual property, patent, product, regulatory,
or other factors; and the Company’s ability to attract and retain employees necessary to support its growth.
Products developed by the Company require approvals from the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or other international regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales. There can be no assurance
that the products will receive the necessary approvals. If the Company is denied approval, approval is delayed or the Company is unable
to maintain approval, it could have a materially adverse impact on the Company.
The Company has expended and will continue to expend substantial funds
to complete the research, development and clinical testing of product candidates. The Company also will be required to expend additional
funds to establish commercial-scale manufacturing arrangements and to provide for the marketing and distribution of products that receive
regulatory approval. As of September 30, 2025, the Company may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing to commercialize
its products. If adequate funds are unavailable on a timely basis from operations or additional sources of financing, the Company may
have to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of its research or development programs which would materially and adversely
affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.
Inflation, Monetary Response, and Economic Impacts
The world economy is experiencing stubbornly high inflation, a challenge
not faced for decades. Following the global financial crisis, with inflationary pressures muted, interest rates were extremely low for
years and investors became accustomed to low volatility. The resulting easing of financial conditions supported economic growth, but it
also contributed to a buildup of financial vulnerabilities. With inflation at multi-decade highs, monetary authorities in advanced economies
are accelerating the pace of policy normalization. Policymakers have continued to tighten policy against a backdrop of rising inflation
and currency pressures, albeit with notable differences across regions. Global financial conditions have tightened notably this year,
leading to capital outflows. Amid heightened economic and geopolitical uncertainties, investors have aggressively pulled back from risk-taking
and adjusted their investment preferences generally. Key gauges of systemic risk, such as higher dollar funding costs and counterparty
credit spreads, have risen. There is a risk of a disorderly tightening of financial conditions that may be amplified by vulnerabilities
built over the years.
In addition, our business, growth, financial condition or results of
operations could be materially adversely affected by instability or changes in a country’s or region’s economic conditions;
inflation; changes in laws or regulations or in the interpretation of existing laws or regulations, whether caused by a change in government
or otherwise; increased difficulty of conducting business in a country or region due to actual or potential political or military conflict;
or action by the U.S. or foreign governments that may restrict our ability to transact business in a foreign country or with certain foreign
individuals or entities. A possible slowdown in global trade caused by increasing tariffs or other restrictions could decrease consumer
or corporate confidence and reduce consumer, government and corporate spending in countries inside or outside the U.S., which could adversely
affect our operations. Climate-related events, including extreme weather events and natural disasters and their effect on critical infrastructure
in the U.S. or internationally, could have similar adverse effects on our operations, users, or third-party suppliers.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant
to applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements and in accordance with the rules and regulations
of the SEC. In the opinion of management, the interim unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2025, the results
of its operations and changes to stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and its cash
flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025, or any other interim periods, or any future year
or period. All amounts included herein have been rounded except where otherwise stated. As figures are rounded, numbers presented throughout
this document may not add up precisely to the totals we provide and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures. Certain
disclosures have been consolidated or omitted from the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures as of December
31, 2024 and for the year then ended as found in the Form S-4/A filed by the Company with the SEC on April 3, 2025, as further amended.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity
with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the condensed consolidated financial statements
and accompanying notes. The Company’s management regularly assesses these estimates, including those related to accrued liabilities,
valuation of the convertible debt, and senior notes, warrants, milestone based earn-outs, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets,
and valuation of stock-based awards. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material to the Company’s
financial position and results of operations.
Segment Information
ASC 280, “Segment Reporting” (“ASC 280”), defines
operating segments as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the
chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company operates
as a single operating segment. The Company’s CODM is the chief executive officer, who has ultimate responsibility for the operating
performance of the Company and the allocation of resources. The CODM uses cash flows as the primary measure to manage the business and
does not segment the business for internal reporting or decision making.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration
of credit risk consist of cash and other receivables. Substantially all of the Company’s cash is held by one financial institution.
Such deposits may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its cash.
9
Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with
an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, cash consisted of cash on deposit
with a bank denominated in U.S. dollars.
Digital assets
As a result of the adoption of ASU 2023-08, Intangibles-Goodwill
and Other-Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets (“ASU 2023-08”), digital assets
are measured at fair value as of each reporting period. The fair value of digital assets is measured using the period-end closing price
from Coinbase, in accordance with ASC 820. Since the digital assets are traded on a 24-hour period, the Company utilizes the price as
of midnight UTC time. Changes in fair value are recognized in Gain (loss) on fair value of digital assets , in Operating income
(loss) on the Statement of Operations. When the Company sells digital assets, gains or losses from such transactions are measured
as the difference between the cash proceeds and the carrying basis of the digital assets as determined on a First In-First Out basis and
are also recorded within the same line item, Gains (loss) on fair value of digital assets .
The Company holds all digital assets with BitGo for custodial services,
who were selected based on various factors, including their financial strength and industry reputation. Custodian risk refers to the potential
loss, theft, or misappropriation of the Company’s digital assets due to operational failures, cybersecurity breaches, or financial
difficulties experienced by these third parties. Although the Company periodically monitors the financial health, insurance coverage,
and security measures of its custodians, reliance on such third parties inherently exposes the Company to risks that it cannot fully mitigate.
Deferred Offering Costs
Specific incremental costs, consisting of legal, accounting and other
fees and costs, directly attributable to a proposed or actual offering of securities are deferred and charged against the gross proceeds
of the offering. In the event of a significant delay or cancellation of a planned offering of securities, all of the costs are expensed.
Offering costs capitalized as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $ 0 million and $ 2.8 million, respectively. During the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company charged $ 0.3 million against proceeds of the offering in additional paid-in capital
and expensed approximately $ 15 million to general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations, which includes $ 2.4 million
charged against the Business Combination transaction costs. The $ 0.3 million of deferred offering costs was deducted from the gross proceeds
of the share issuance and is presented as a separate line item in the table below, reducing additional paid-in capital in the statement
of changes in stockholders’ deficit.

ELOC
On July 28, 2025, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement and
the ELOC Registration Rights Agreement with Ascent. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in the
Purchase Agreement, from and after the Effective Date, the Company will have the right, in its sole discretion, to sell to Ascent up to
$ 100,000,000 of shares of its Common Stock, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement, from time to time during
the term of the Purchase Agreement. The ELOC is accounted for in accordance with US GAAP accounting for standby equity purchase agreements
(“SEPA”) which are accounted for as an asset or liability pitot to the settlement of shares in equity and is not considered
indexed to the Company's stock under step 2 in ASC 815-40-15-7 and therefore liability classified.
As consideration for Ascent’s commitment to purchase shares of
Common Stock at the Company’s direction upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, upon our
execution of the term sheet relating to the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued Ascent warrants (the “Commitment Warrants”)
to purchase up to 900,000 shares of Company Common Stock (the “Commitment Warrant Shares”). Warrants are recorded at their
fair value on grant date which was $ 0.9 million and were expensed to financing fees in accordance with US GAAP accounting for standby
equity purchase agreements (“SEPA”).
Issuance fees such as warrant costs associated to a SEPA or ELOC are
expensed upfront.. The associated equity classified warrants were not remeasured after initial issuance. In the instance of liability
classified warrants, the Company revalues the warrants in subsequent periods with the change in fair value recorded in earnings.
When the Company draws on the ELOC and issues shares, it recognizes
the proceeds in equity. The amount recorded is based on the fair value of the cash received. The Company records ELOC transactions based on the actual cash received for each draw, as this is clearly measurable and traceable.
Merger with Northview Acquisition Company
The Company accounted for the merger with Northview as a reverse recapitalization.
A reverse recapitalization occurs when the legal acquirer (the public shell company) issues shares to the shareholders of the legal acquiree
(the operating company), and the operating company’s shareholders obtain control of the combined entity. Because the public shell
company does not meet the definition of a business under ASC 805, the transaction is not accounted for as a business combination. Instead,
the transaction is accounted for as a capital transaction; that is, as a recapitalization of the operating company.
The historical financial statements are those of Legacy Profusa. The
September 30, 2025 financial statements are those of Profusa Inc., with the assets and liabilities of Northview recognized at fair value
as of the acquisition date. The equity structure, including the number and type of shares issued and outstanding reflects that of Legacy
Profusa, and includes the equity instruments issued to effect the merger.
Any contingent consideration is measured at fair value at the acquisition
date. For contingent consideration that does not meet all the criteria for equity classification, such contingent consideration is required
to be recorded at its initial fair value at the acquisition date, and on each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated
fair value of liability-classified contingent consideration are recognized on the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the
period of change.
Accrued Liabilities
The Company recognizes accrued liabilities for expenses that have been incurred but not yet paid as of the reporting date. Accruals are
recorded when (i) an obligation has been incurred, (ii) the amount is reasonably estimable, and (iii) the related goods or services have
been received. Accrued liabilities primarily consist of compensation-related expenses (including salaries, bonuses, payroll taxes and
benefits), professional fees, interest expense, operating costs, and other incurred but unpaid obligations.
Management evaluates all known and estimated obligations at each reporting
period and updates accruals based on the best available information. Accrued liabilities are classified as current when the Company expects
to settle the obligation within one year. Changes in estimates are recognized in the period in which such changes become known.
11
Due to Related Parties
Amounts due to related parties represent
liabilities arising from transactions with entities or individuals that meet the definition of a related party under ASC 850, Related
Party Disclosures . Such balances generally consist of short-term, non-interest-bearing payables for advances, expense reimbursements,
shared services, or other operating costs incurred on behalf of the Company. These amounts are recorded at their carrying value, which
approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.
The Company recognizes related party payables when the underlying transaction
has occurred, and the amount is fixed or determinable. Settlements of related party balances typically occur in cash; however, amounts
may also be settled through offsets or other non-cash arrangements when appropriate.
Management evaluates related party balances each reporting period to
ensure proper classification, measurement, and disclosure. Amounts expected to be repaid within one year are classified as current liabilities.
All related party transactions are conducted on terms the Company believes approximate those that would be obtained in arm’s-length
transactions; however, because such arrangements are with related parties, the terms may differ from those obtainable from unrelated third
parties.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of other receivables,
accounts payable, warrant liabilities, earnout, promissory notes, convertible promissory notes and senior notes. The Company states accounts
payable at their carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the short time to the expected receipt or payment. See Note 4 Fair
Value Measurements for instruments valued under Level 2 or Level 3.
Earnout Arrangements
In connection with the Business Combination, the Company entered into
earnout arrangements that provide for the issuance of additional shares of the Company’s common stock to certain pre-Business Combination
holders upon the achievement of specified post-closing share-price or operational milestones. The earnout agreement allows for settlement
in shares of the company and does not allow for settlement in cash or other assets.
The Company evaluates earnout arrangements in a de-SPAC
transaction as a reverse recapitalization which is a capital transaction, under U.S. GAAP. The transaction was accounted for in line
with SEC guidance (FRM Topic 12) and interpretations of ASC 805, Business Combinations , and the classification guidance under ASC
480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. If the earnout arrangement does not require liability classification under ASC 480,
it is then evaluated under the indexation guidance ASC 815-40-15, and the equity classification guidance ASC 815-40-25, to determine
whether it should be classified as a liability or equity. All Milestones (Milestone I, II, III, and IV) do not require the
liability classification under ASC 480, therefore the Company will proceed to assess under indexation guidance and equity
classification guidance.
Earnout agreements have specific indexation requirements (ASC
815-40) to be considered indexed to the entity’s own stock, and meet the equity classification requirements. Earnout
agreements are considered indexed to the entity’s own stock when the earnout meets both of the following: (i) The earnout is
based solely on inputs that are observable market data or inputs that are not observable but are consistent with the entity’s
own stock (e.g., stock price, strike price, number of shares), and (ii) The earnout does not contain provisions that could require
settlement in a way that is not consistent with equity classification. These steps are satisfied for Milestones I & II, the
earnout may be considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. Milestone III does not meet the indexation guidance as it is based
on an event occurring to achieve $ 6 million in, which is not a market data or input. The Milestone IV Earnout does meet the scope
exception ASC 815-10-15-59(d) from derivative accounting since payments under these milestones are based on revenue amounts.
Financial instruments such as these meet the “own equity” scope exception in ASC 815-10-15-74(a), and the financial
instrument would be classified as equity with no subsequent remeasurement (unless the earnout is modified). Milestone III does not
meet this “own equity” scope exception and is thus liability classified, valued on the Closing Date with subsequent changes in the
valuation adjusted through earnings.
The Company’s earnout Milestones I, II, and IV meet the equity
classification criteria under ASC 815-40. As there is no obligation to net cash settle, there is a fixed quantity of shares, settlement
is exclusively made in shares, and there are no downside protections or leverage features that protect the holder from a decline in price.
As these conditions were all met, the earnout is considered both indexed to the entity’s own stock (or within the scope exception),
and meet the equity classification requirements. These earnouts were fair valued on the Closing Date and will not be remeasured. Similarly,
Milestone III was fair valued on the Closing Date and was determined to have a $ 0 value due to the current probability input of the event
occurring being 0 %. Additionally, this Milestone III was revalued as of September 30, 2025 and continues to have a current probability
of 0 % and no value was associated with the milestone. On the Closing Date, Milestones I and II had a value of $ 1.7 million, while Milestone
IV had a value of $ 0 as this was also deemed improbable of occurring. Milestone III does not meet the indexed guidance as it is based
on an event occurring to achieve $ 6 million in, which is not a market data or input. The Milestone IV Earnout does meet the scope exception
ASC 815-10-15-59(d) from derivative accounting since payments under these milestones are based on revenue amounts.
Warrants
The Company reviews the terms of warrants to purchase its common stock
to determine whether warrants should be classified as liabilities or stockholders’ deficit in its condensed consolidated balance
sheets. In order for a warrant to be classified in stockholders’ deficit, the warrant must be (i) indexed to the Company’s
equity and (ii) meet the conditions for equity classification. Legal costs incurred in connection with the issuance of equity-classified
warrants are capitalized as a reduction to Additional Paid-In Capital if the warrants are issued in conjunction with an equity financing
or equity-linked arrangement, and expensed immediately only if the costs are not directly attributable to the issuance.
12
If a warrant does not meet the conditions for stockholders’ deficit
classification, it is carried on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a warrant liability measured at fair value, with subsequent
changes in the fair value of the warrant recorded in other non-operating losses (gains) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
If a warrant meets both conditions for equity classification, the warrant is initially recorded, at its relative fair value on the date
of issuance, in stockholders’ deficit in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the amount initially recorded is not subsequently
remeasured at fair value. Legal and professional fees incurred in connection with the issuance of liability-classified warrants, including
those failing equity classification under ASC 815-40 are expensed immediately to the income statement as incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company has established deferred income tax assets and liabilities
for temporary differences between the financial reporting bases and the income tax bases of its assets and liabilities at enacted tax
rates expected to be in effect when such assets or liabilities are realized or settled pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 740 ,
“Income Taxes,” which prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, classification
and disclosure of uncertain tax positions. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained
upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2025 and December
31, 2024.
The Company has no tax provision for the nine months ended September
30, 2025 and 2024, due to the net losses and full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets. Additionally, the Company does
not earn a material amount of revenue or interest as of the date of these financial statements requiring a tax provision.
Excise tax payable
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, enacted in August 2022, imposed
a 1 % non-deductible excise tax on net repurchases of shares by domestic corporations whose stock is traded on an established securities
market.
Recent Accounting Standards
From time to time, new accounting standards are issued by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective
date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and through the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements,
there have been no new, or existing, recently issued accounting pronouncements that are of significance, or potential significance, that
impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes ( Topic
740 ): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires
a public business entity (PBE) to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts,
broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those
items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated
by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5 % of total income tax payments, net of refunds received.
This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, the
Company will be required to disclose additional specified categories in the rate reconciliation in both percentage and dollar amounts.
The standard, which is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 is expected to be applied prospectively and
will improve disclosures to include a more granular presentation of income taxes. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09
to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements taken as a whole
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 (“ASU 2024-03”),
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“DISE”). ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses
for public business entities. ASU 2024-03 does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement;
rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial
statements. As revised by ASU No. 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures,
the provisions of ASU 2024-03 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. With the exception of expanding disclosures to include more granular
income statement expense categories, the Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2024-03 to have a material effect on our consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole.
13
Note 3 — Recapitalization
On July 11, 2025, the Company consummated the Business
Combination. The consummation of the Business Combination involved the merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into
Legacy Profusa, pursuant to which, at the Closing, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased, with Legacy Profusa as the
surviving corporation becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the Business Combination, the Company owns
100 % of the outstanding common stock of Legacy Profusa. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, the Company
changed its name from “NorthView Acquisition Corporation” to “Profusa, Inc.”
More specifically, and as described in greater detail below, at the
Effective Time of the Merger:
● each share of issued and outstanding Legacy Profusa Common Stock, including
shares converted from convertible debt and convertible Preferred Stock, was converted into a number of shares of Company Common Stock,
based on the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement) that reflects an equity valuation of Legacy Profusa of $ 155,000,000 (as
adjusted for the Incentive Equity Value, the Private Placement Value and the Aggregate Company Incentive Amount (as such terms are defined
in the Merger Agreement)), divided by an assumed value of Company Common Stock of $ 10.00 per share,
● each option to purchase Legacy Profusa Common Stock was converted into an option to purchase Company Common Stock based on the Exchange
Ratio, and
● each warrant to purchase Legacy Profusa Common Stock was converted into a warrant to purchase Company Common Stock based on the Warrant
Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
PIPE Transaction
On February 11, 2025, the Company executed a Securities Purchase Agreement
(the “PIPE Subscription Agreement”) with Ascent Partners Fund LLC (“Ascent”, and together with any additional
investors who become parties to the PIPE Subscription Agreement, the “PIPE Investors”). Pursuant to the PIPE Subscription
Agreement, the PIPE Investors are expected, subject to the conditions relating to such purchase set forth in the PIPE Subscription Agreement,
to purchase from NorthView senior secured convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $ 22,222,222 (the “PIPE Convertible
Notes”) for a purchase price of up to $ 20,000,000 , after 10 % OID.
At the Closing and pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreement, the
Company issued a PIPE Convertible Note in the principal amount of $ 10,000,000 (the “Initial Note”), reflecting a 10 % OID.
The Initial Note matures on the date that is 18 -months from Closing (the “Maturity Date”) and is convertible at any time at
the holder’s option at the lower of $ 10 or 95 % of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price per share (“VWAP”)
of Company Common Stock in the 10 trading days prior to the original issue date for each PIPE Convertible and shall be adjusted, without
limitation, based on down-round and most-favored nation (MFN) price and terms protections (the “Conversion Price”).
The outstanding principal balance of the Profusa senior
convertible promissory notes and all accrued but unpaid interest converted into Legacy Profusa Common Stock was exchanged for
4,170,932 shares of Company Common Stock, on an as converted price of $ 0.34 per share. The Exchange Ratio and the Company Reference
Share Value (as defined in the Merger Agreement) were $ 0.94 and $ 9.40 , respectively.
The outstanding principal balance of the Profusa senior secured
convertible promissory notes and all accrued but unpaid interest converted into Legacy Profusa Common Stock was exchanged for
5,542,261 shares of Company Common Stock, on an as converted price of $ 0.50 per share.
Upon Closing, the former holders of Legacy Profusa’s common stock,
senior convertible notes, junior convertible notes and vested in-the-money options (the “Participating Securityholders”) received
certain rights, under which in the future the Company may issue to the Participating Securityholders an aggregate of 3,875,000 shares
of Company Common Stock (the “Milestone Earnout Shares”) during the respective earnout periods in equal quarterly installments
upon achievement of the following four Milestone Events:
● Milestone I Earnout Rights: share price of Company Common Stock is equal to or greater than $ 12.50 for any 20 trading days during any 30 days trading period or consummation of a Subsequent Transaction (as defined in the Merger Agreement) where the stockholders of Profusa will receive a consideration of at least $ 12.50 for each share of Company Common Stock (“Milestone Event I”). The Milestone I period will commence on the 18-month anniversary and end on the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date (“Milestone Event I Period”);
14
● Milestone II Earnout Rights: share price of Company Common Stock is equal to or greater than $ 14.50 for any 20 trading days during
any 30 days trading period or consummation of a Subsequent Transaction where the stockholders of Profusa will receive a consideration
of at least $ 14.50 for each share of Company Common Stock (“Milestone Event II”). The Milestone II period will commence on
the 360-day anniversary and end on the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date (“Milestone Event II Period”); provided that
such 30 days trading period does not overlap with the 30 days trading period used to satisfy the requirements of Milestone Event I; provided,
further, that in the event that such 30 days trading period could satisfy either Milestone Event I or Milestone Event II, then Milestone
Event II shall be deemed to be satisfied first;
● Milestone III Earnout Rights: the closing of the APAC Joint Venture, as described below in this Report, and the Companies receipt of the related $ 6 million funding, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (“Milestone Event III”);
● Milestone IV Earnout Rights: achievement of revenue of $ 11,864,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026 (“Milestone Event
IV,” and, together with Milestone Event I, Milestone Event II and Milestone Event III, the “Milestone Events”). Milestone
I Earnout Rights, Milestone II Earnout Rights, Milestone III Earnout Rights and Milestone IV Earnout Rights are further referred to collectively
as “Milestone Earnout Rights”.
In the event that the above milestones are achieved, this will dilute
the ownership interests of existing shareholders.
Reverse recapitalization
The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization
in accordance with US GAAP. Accordingly, Legacy Profusa was deemed the accounting acquirer (and legal acquiree) and Northview was treated
as the accounting acquiree (and legal acquirer).
Under this method of accounting, the reverse recapitalization was treated
as the equivalent of Legacy Profusa issuing stock for the net assets (liabilities) of Northview, accompanied by a recapitalization. The
net assets of Northview are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The consolidated assets,
liabilities, and results of operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Legacy Profusa. All periods prior to the Business
Combination have been retrospectively adjusted in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement for the equivalent number of common
shares outstanding immediately after the Business Combination to effect the reverse recapitalization. The number of shares for all periods
prior to the Closing Date have been retrospectively decreased using the exchange ratio that was established (the “Exchange Ratio”).
All Milestones (Milestone I, II, III, and IV pass the criteria of liability
classification under ASC 480 as they are not mandatorily redeemable, it does not represent an obligation to repurchase the issuer’s
equity shares, and it is not settled by issuing a variable number of its equity shares. Milestone III however, does not pass the criteria
of liability classification under ASC 480 as the settlement condition is based partially on the occurrence of an event which fails the
index guidance for equity classification.
All four Earnouts have only two potential settlement alternatives,
i.e. either no shares are issued or 968,750 shares are issued (for each Earnout). This earnout agreement is considered indexed to the
entity’s own stock, as the earnout meets both of the following: (i) The earnout is based solely on inputs that are observable market
data or inputs that are not observable but are consistent with the entity’s own stock (e.g., stock price, strike price, number of
shares), and (ii) The earnout does not contain provisions that could require settlement in a way that is not consistent with equity classification.
These steps are satisfied for Milestones I & II, the earnout may be considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. Milestone
III does not meet the indexed guidance as it is based on an event occurring to achieve $ 6 million in, which is not a market data or input.
The Milestone IV Earnout does meet the scope exception ASC 815-10-15-59(d) from derivative accounting since payments under these milestones
are based on revenue amounts. Financial instruments such as these meet the “own equity” scope exception in ASC 815-10-15-74(a),
and the financial instrument would be classified as equity with no subsequent remeasurement (unless the earnout is modified). Milestone
III does not meet this own equity scope exception and is thus liability classified, valued on the Closing Date with subsequent changes
in the valuation adjusted through earnings.
The Company’s earnout Milestones I, II, and IV meet the equity
classification criteria under ASC 815-40. As there is no obligation to net cash settle, there is a fixed quantity of shares, settlement
is exclusively made in shares, and there are no downside protections or leverage features that protect the holder from a decline in price.
As these conditions were all met, the earnout is considered both indexed to the entity’s own stock (or within the scope exception),
and meet the equity classification requirements. These earnouts were fair valued on the Closing Date and will not be remeasured. Similarly,
Milestone III was fair valued on the Closing Date and was determined to have a $ 0 value due to the current probability input of the event
occurring being 0 %. Additionally, this Milestone III was revalued as of September 30, 2025 and continues to have a current probability
of 0 % and no value was associated with the milestone. On the Closing Date, Milestones I and II had a value of $ 1.7 million, while Milestone
IV had a value of $ 0 as this was also deemed improbable of occurring. Milestone III does not meet the indexed guidance as it is based
on an event occurring to achieve $ 6 million in, which is not a market data or input. The Milestone IV Earnout does meet the scope exception
ASC 815-10-15-59(d) from derivative accounting since payments under these milestones are based on revenue amounts..
The earn-outs are considered to be part of the overall reverse recapitalization
as it was negotiated between NorthView Sponsor I, LLC, the sponsor of NorthView (the “Sponsor”), and the selling shareholders.
As such, it is represented as an equity restructuring that is accounted for as a reduction in additional paid-in capital. As this is an
equity classified transaction the contingent consideration creates a reduction to the additional paid in capital account of $ 1.7 million,
with an offset to additional paid in capital -Earn-out equity instrument. This accounting results in no impact on the face of the
Statement of Stockholders’ Deficit until all necessary conditions to issue such shares have been satisfied by the end of the period.
Once these contingently issuable shares are deemed issuable, they will also be included in earnings per share.

Transaction costs
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, based on
the proceeds received, the Company expensed $ 15.1 million for transaction costs incurred in connection with the Business Combination.
The transaction costs primarily represented fees incurred for financial advisory, legal and other professional services that were directly
related to the Business Combination.
Public and private placement warrants
The 9,487,500 warrants (the “Public Warrants”) issued in
Northview’s initial public offering (the “IPO”), 7,347,500 warrants issued in connection with private placement at the
time of the IPO (the “Private Placement Warrants”) and 569,250 warrants issued to the representative of the underwriters in
the IPO (the “Representative’s Warrants”) remained outstanding and became warrants for the Company. The Public Warrants
qualify for equity classification upon Closing, and were fair value adjusted with no future gains or losses on fair value adjustment being
recorded in future periods. The Private Placement Warrants and Representative’s Warrants contain provisions that preclude these
warrants from being indexed to the Company’s stock., the settlement amount depending on who holds the instrument, and the holder
is not an input to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed option or forward on equity shares. As such, this provision would cause the warrants
to fail Step 2 of the indexation guidance. The Private Placement and Representative’s Warrants remained liability classified with
fair value adjustments being recorded through earnings each period.

Note 4 — Fair Value Measurement
Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis
in the balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values. Fair
value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize
the use of unobservable inputs. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy for
disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:
Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level 2 — Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities 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 related assets or liabilities; and
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement
of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data.
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques
that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty
credit risk in its assessment of fair value.
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.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s

The Private Placement Warrants and the Representative’s Warrants
are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance
sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented
within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the Private
Placement Warrants and the Representative’s Warrants. The Private Placement Warrants and the Representative’s Warrants were
classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs. Inherent in pricing models are assumptions
related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of its common
stock based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on
the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The
expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.
The key inputs into the Monte Carlo simulation model for the warrant
liabilities were as follows at September 30, 2025 and July 11, 2025 (the “Closing Date”):

Convertible notes payable, related party
The Tasly Convertible note and the Convertible Promissory Note
– Related Party (collectively “Related Party Convertible Debt Payable”) were valued using a Probability Weighted Expected
Return Model to fair value the convertible note. The intrinsic conversion value as of September 30, 2025 is zero and the note has matured
and is payable at the principal amounts plus accrued interest. Therefore, the fair value of the note is the face amount of the debt.

Loan Payable - Related Party
The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the Loan Payable
- Related Party. The Loan Payable - Related Party were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable
inputs. Inherent in pricing models are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate.
The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the
loans payable. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar
to the expected remaining life of the loans. The expected life of the loans are assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual

Convertible Notes
The annual effective interest rate of Convertible Notes was estimated
from 12.54 % to 53.28 % per year for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and from 12.66 % to 53.28 % per year for the nine months ended
September 30, 2024. The interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $ 0.1 million and $ 0.5 million, respectively.
The interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $ 1.2 million and $ 1.6 million, respectively.
Upon Closing, the following convertible notes were converted into Company
Common Stock based on the principal and accrued interest as of July 11, 2025 (the Closing Date). Convertible Notes with an outstanding
balance of $ 19.6 million in principal and accrued interest converted into 2,801,697 shares of Company Common Stock at $ 7.00 /share.
Tasly Convertible Debt - Related Party at fair value
In June 2023, the Company entered into a short-term loan agreement
with a related party under which it may borrow up to $ 1.6 million, of which $ 1.0 million was borrowed on June 26, 2023, $ 0.3 million was
borrowed on July 20, 2023, $ 0.3 million was borrowed on August 15, 2023 and the final $ 0.02 million was borrowed in February 2024 (the
“Convertible debt”).
The loans bear interest at a rate of 12 % per annum, 24 % per annum default
interest rate, and originally matured on December 31, 2023 . The original maturity date was extended to March 31, 2024, subject to the
parties’ decision to extend thereafter. Upon occurrence of certain events of default by the Company, including failure to repay
in full the amounts owed at maturity, the lender will have an option to convert the entire outstanding balance and accrued but unpaid
interest under the Convertible debt into senior unsecured promissory notes on substantially the same terms as the outstanding Senior Notes.
In the event the Company fails to complete the formation of the APAC Joint Venture or fail to repay the amounts under the Tasly Convertible
Debt when they become due, the lender will have an option to convert the entire outstanding balance and accrued but unpaid interest under
the Convertible debt into either (i) senior unsecured promissory notes on substantially the same terms as the outstanding Senior Notes
as of September 30, 2025, $ 0.50 per share, or (ii) the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price of $ 1.92 per share.
22
The Company elected to apply the fair value option to account for the
Tasly Convertible debt. Accordingly, no features of the Convertible debt are bifurcated and separately accounted for. As of September
30, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of the Convertible debt was $ 2.1 million and $ 1.7 million, respectively. On September 30, 2025, the
remaining time event was 0 months as the APAC JV can effectively close now that the Closing has occurred. The intrinsic conversion value
as of the Valuation Date, September 30, 2025, is zero and the note is in default as the maturity date has passed. The fair value
of the note is the face amount of the debt plus accrued interest which is recorded as a liability above the face amount of the debt and
is recorded as a current liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Senior Convertible Notes
January-March 2024 Senior Notes — During the months
January through March 2024, the Company issued additional Senior Notes to investors with the principal amount of $ 0.7 million on substantially

at the same 12 % interest terms as all of their other Senior Notes and converted into shares of Company Common Stock upon the Closing.
January-March 2025 Senior Notes — During the months
January through March 2025, the Company issued additional Senior Secured Convertible Notes to investors with the principal amount of $ 0.8
million on substantially the same terms as the Senior Notes issued in 2022 (as amended in November 2022). These notes were issued at the
same 12 % interest terms as all of their other Senior Secured Convertible Notes, and will convert into shares of Company Common Stock at
$ 0.50 per share.
April - June 2025 Senior Notes — During the months
April through June 2025, the Company issued additional Senior Secured Convertible Notes to investors with the principal amount of $ 0.4
million issued on substantially the same terms as the Senior Notes issued in 2022 (as amended in November 2022). These notes were issued
at the same 12 % interest terms as all of their other Senior Secured Convertible Notes, and will convert into shares of Company Common
Stock at $ 0.50 per share.
The annual effective interest rate of Senior Notes was estimated from
0% to 12.15 % and 0% to 12.55 % per year for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The interest expense for the
three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $ 0.1 million and $ 0.5 million, respectively. The interest expense for the nine months
ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $ 1.3 million and $ 1.5 million, respectively.
Upon Closing, the following convertible notes were converted into Company
Common Stock based on the principal and accrued interest as of July 11, 2025. Senior Convertible Notes with an outstanding balance of
$ 20.6 million in principal and accrued interest converted into 5,143,898 shares of Company Common Stock at $ 4.00 /share, Senior Convertible
Bridge Notes of $ 3.1 million in principal and accrued interest were repaid in cash in the amount of $ 0.2 million with the remaining $ 2.9
million converted into 1,294,590 shares of Company Common Stock at $ 2.22 /share, Senior Secured Convertible Notes of $ 2.8 million in principal
and accrued interest converted into 5,542,261 shares of Company Common Stock at $ 0.50 /share. Of the 5,542,261 shares of Company Common
Stock issued to Senior Secured Note holders, 710,220 shares were contributed by the Sponsor. As such, most of these notes were converted
into Company Common Stock upon the Closing. As of September 30, 2025, $ 0.3 million remained outstanding.
23
Of the $ 0.3 million of Senior Notes remaining, $0 is outstanding with
related parties and $ 0.3 million is outstanding with unrelated parties. Additionally, of the $ 25.3 million of Senior Notes outstanding
on December 31, 2024, $ 9.5 million was outstanding with related parties and $ 15.8 million was outstanding with unrelated parties.
Loans Payable - Related Party at fair value
On February 11, 2025, NorthView executed a Securities Purchase Agreement
(the “PIPE Subscription Agreement”) with Ascent Partners Fund LLC (“Ascent”, and together with any additional
investors who become parties to the PIPE Subscription Agreement, the “PIPE Investors”). Pursuant to the PIPE Subscription
Agreement, the PIPE Investors are expected, subject to the conditions relating to such purchase set forth in the PIPE Subscription Agreement,
to purchase from NorthView senior secured convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $ 22,222,222 (the “PIPE Convertible
Notes”) for an aggregate purchase price of up to $ 20,000,000 , reflecting a 10 % original issue discount to the face amount (“OID”).
As of the Closing on July 11, 2025 Northview was presenting the PIPE
Subscription Agreement at fair value on its balance sheet in the amount of $ 3.9 million which was brought over to the Company’s
combined balance sheet and further adjusted to fair value on September 30, 2025.
At the Closing and pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreement, the
Company issued the Initial Note in the principal amount of $ 10,000,000 for a purchase price of $ 9,000,000 , reflecting a 10 % OID. The Initial
Note matures on January 11, 2027 , which is 18-months from Closing on July 11, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”) and is
convertible at any time at the PIPE Investor’s option at a conversion price equal to the lower of $ 10 or 95 % of the lowest daily
VWAP of our Common Stock in the 10 trading days prior to the original issue date of the Initial Note and shall be adjusted, without limitation,
based on down-round and most-favored nation (MFN) price and terms protections (the “Conversion Price”).
The Initial Note includes a “Minimum Interest Amount” equal
to 10 % of the principal amount, which represents a full year of interest payments under the Initial Note; provided, that such Minimum
Interest Amount shall be reduced by the amount of interest accrued on the principal amount of the Initial Note. Interest shall accrue
on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of the Initial Note at a rate of 10 % per annum, provided that the Minimum
Interest Amount shall be fully earned and accrued on the original issue date of the Initial Note. Upon an event of default, the interest
rate shall be adjusted and increase to 24 % per annum. Payments made in cash under the Initial Note shall be subject to a 5 % fee, which
shall be in addition to any amounts owed thereunder. The Initial Note provides for certain events of default that are typical for a transaction
of this type, including, among other things, any breach of the representations or warranties made by the Company and our subsidiaries.
The Initial Note also provides for a 10 % late fee in case of late payments and mandatory prepayments upon Subsequent Offerings (as defined
in the Initial Note) and, in the absence of an event of default, may be prepaid upon 10 business days prior notice, subject to certain
conversion rights of the PIPE Investors.
The Initial Note may not be converted by the PIPE Investors into shares
of our Common Stock if such conversion would result in the investors or their affiliates owning in excess of 4.99 % of the number of shares
of our Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of all shares issuable upon conversion of the Initial
Note (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, that the PIPE Investors may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation upon at least 61 days’ prior notice to us so long as such increase does not exceed 9.99 % of the number of shares of our
Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of all shares issuable upon conversion of the Initial Note. On
August 1, 2025, pursuant to a Notice and Waiver, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation was increased from 4.99 % to 9.99 % and the Company
waived the requirement for the 60 days’ advance notice for such increase.
24
On August 25, 2025, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 (the
“SPA Amendment”) to the PIPE Subscription Agreement. Pursuant to the SPA Amendment, Section 2.1 of the PIPE Subscription Agreement
was amended and restated to provide for four tranches of Notes: (i) an initial closing for Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $ 10,000,000
(the “First Tranche”), which already occurred on July 11, 2025; (ii) a second closing for Notes in an aggregate principal
amount of $ 2,222,222 (the “Second Tranche”) for a purchase price of $ 2,000,000 , subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions
including the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 covering all conversion shares and no Nasdaq listing deficiency; (iii) a
third closing for Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $ 5,555,556 (the “Third Tranche”) for a purchase price of $ 5,000,000 ,
subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions including the full conversion or repayment of the First Tranche, effectiveness of a
registration statement, no Nasdaq listing deficiency, and receipt of stockholder approval; and (iv) a fourth closing for Notes in an aggregate
principal amount of $ 4,444,444 (the “Fourth Tranche”) for a purchase price of $ 4,000,000 , subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions including the full repayment of the First and Second Tranches, at least fifty percent ( 50 %) repayment or conversion of the
Third Tranche, effectiveness of a registration statement, and no Nasdaq listing deficiency. The SPA Amendment supersedes and replaces
all prior provisions relating to “Additional Closings” and “Additional Notes,” and all references to such terms
in the PIPE Subscription Agreement and related documents are to be construed in accordance with the new tranche structure.
Concurrently, on August 25, 2025, the Company entered into Amendment
No. 1 (the “Note Amendment”) to the Initial Note. The Note Amendment modifies the terms of the Initial Note, specifically
amending Section 4(b) to revise the conversion price provisions on any conversion date to be the lower of (i) the Conversion Price on
such date and (ii) ninety-five percent ( 95 %) of the lowest daily VWAP for the Company’s Common Stock during the ten consecutive
trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date (the “Alternate Conversion Price”), provided that in no
event shall the conversion price be less than the floor price of $ 0.10 which was calculated based on twenty percent ( 20 %) of the closing
sale price of the common stock on the principal trading market on the trading day immediately preceding the Note Amendment’s
effective date, which was August 22, 2025.
The Company has elected the fair value option under ASC
825-10, Financial Instruments - Fair Value Option, for its loans payable - related party under ASC 825, Financial Instruments .
The election simplifies accounting by measuring the entire instrument at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.
As such, the Company does not separately recognize any interest, unamortized discount, premium, issuance costs, or other basis adjustments;
these amounts are included in the carrying amount of the liability that is adjusted to fair value each period. Fair value is determined
using observable market data when available and valuation models when observable inputs are not readily available. Changes in fair value
attributable to both credit risk and market risk are recorded in Loss on change in fair value of related party convertible debt in the
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 4, Fair Value Measurement for further information.
As of September 30, 2025, there was $ 14.4 million loans payable outstanding
which has been classified as long-term in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Promissory Notes
In a series of transactions during 2010 and 2011, two of the Company’s
founders provided $ 0.2 million to the Company to fund general corporate purposes in exchange for promissory notes. Our outstanding promissory
notes accrue interest at 5 % and 12 % per annum, most of which do not have a set maturity date. Any promissory notes that did have an initial
maturity date, which has passed, the Company has verbally agreed to pay off these loans subsequent to the consummation of the Business
Combination. The Company is currently in default; accordingly, the Company classified the entire outstanding amount as a current liability
on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
25
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company borrowed $ 0.3
million from two of its founders at zero interest rate to finance its short-term operations, from which $ 0.2 million was repaid in the
same period.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company borrowed short-term
promissory notes of $ 0.3 million from an existing investor and additional $ 0.1 million from an unrelated party repayable on demand at
any time after December 31, 2023, with annual interest rate of 12 %.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and
2024, one note of $ 0.1 million was issued and the Company did not make any repayments from the outstanding balance of the promissory
notes.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, accrued and unpaid
interest on the promissory notes was $ 0.3 million and $ 0.3 million, respectively. Interest expense on the promissory notes was less than
$ 0.1 million for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The carrying value of the promissory notes as of
September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $ 0.9 million and $ 0.9 million, respectively.
Paycheck Protection Program
On May 25, 2021, the Company borrowed $ 1.3 million (the “PPP
Loan 2”) as a Paycheck Protection Program loan. The Paycheck Protection Program, established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief,
and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, provides for loans to qualifying businesses and is administered by the U.S. Small Business
Administration (the “SBA”). The annual interest rate of the PPP Loan 2 is 1 %.
Under the terms of PPP Loan 2, if the Company does not submit a forgiveness
application within 24 weeks of the initial disbursement of the loan (the “Covered Period”), the Company must begin to make
equal monthly payments of principal and interest starting 10 months from the end of the Covered Period until May 25, 2026. Interest on
the loan continues to accumulate during any deferment period. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has not applied for forgiveness under
PPP Loan 2, but does intend to apply for loan forgiveness prior to December 31, 2025. This forgiveness is not guaranteed, based on the
delayed timeline, but the Company has begun to make contact with the loan administrators.
As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2025, the Company was in
default on PPP Loan 2 due to non-payment of minimal repayment amounts required by the terms of PPP Loan 2. Accordingly, the Company classified
the entire amount outstanding under PPP Loan 2 as current and accrued respective late penalties for the total amount of less than $ 0.1
million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The total past due amount of PPP Loan 2 repayments as of September
30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $ 1.0 million and $ 0.8 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025, the contractual future minimum payments for
the PPP Loan 2 were as follows (in thousands):

Convertible Promissory Note – Related Party at Fair value
The Company now holds the convertible working capital promissory note
which was previously held by Northview Acquisition Corporation with the Sponsor for up to $ 2.5 million. The Note is non-interest bearing
and became convertible on the Closing Date, July 11, 2025. The Sponsor may elect to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal
balance of this Note into warrants, at a price of $ 1.00 per warrant. The note also allows for the conversion of the outstanding principal
balance to be repaid in shares of Company Common Stock at a price of $ 2.22 per share at the election of the sponsor. As of September 30,
2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had principal outstanding of $ 1,919,796 and is presenting the Note at fair value on its balance
sheet at September 30, 2025 in the amount of $ 1,919,796 . The Company has deferred the repayment of the note to six months after the Closing
and has classified this as a current asset due to the repayment being in default.
Note 7 — Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Lease Obligations
Beginning in October 2024, the Company entered into a lease agreement
whereby the Company agreed to rent its office and lab facilities under month-to-month tenancy. The monthly rent payable under the lease
is $ 25 thousand. This month-to-month lease automatically renews every four months, unless written termination is provided.
Operating costs for short-term leases include variable lease costs
of $ 0.1 million and less than $ 0.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, compared to $ 0.2 million and $ 0.1
million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Starting from August 2022, the Company recognized lease expense in the
amount of monthly rent as incurred. The Company recognized operating lease costs for monthly rent of $ 75 thousand and $ 150 thousand for
each of the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2025 and 2024. Total operating lease costs with common area maintenance
variable costs were $ 0.3 million and $ 0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
Contingencies and Indemnifications
From time to time, the Company may have certain contingent liabilities
that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. The Company accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that
future expenditures will be made and that such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine
both probability and the estimated amount.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts
and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide for general indemnifications. The Company’s exposure
under these agreements is unknown because it involves claims that may be made against the Company in the future, but that have not yet
been made. To date, the Company has not paid any claims or been required to defend any action related to its indemnification obligations.
However, the Company may record charges in the future as a result of these indemnification obligations.
27
Note 8 — Warrants
The Company has four groups of warrants that total 17,536,750 which
is made up of: 9,487,500 Public Warrants, 7,347,500 Private Placement Warrants, 569,250 Representative’s Warrants, and 132,500 HCW
Warrants.
Northview Warrants
As part of the IPO, Northview issued the Public Warrants to third-party
investors, where each whole warrant entitled the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price
of $ 11.50 per share. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Northview completed the private sale of 7,347,500 Private Placement warrants
where each warrant allows the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Common Stock at $ 11.50 per share. Additionally,
Northview granted underwriters 569,250 warrants exercisable at $ 11.50 per share (or an aggregate exercise price of $ 6,546,375 ) at
the closing of the IPO.
The Public Warrants became exercisable 30 days after the consummation
of the Business Combination
The Private Placement Warrants and Representative’s Warrants
are non-redeemable in certain circumstances so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. The Private
Placement and Representative’s Warrants may also be exercised by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees for cash
or on a cashless basis, but are otherwise similar to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the IPO, as the Private Placement
Warrants and Representative Share Warrants, along with the common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and
Representative Share Warrants also became transferable, assignable, or saleable 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination,
which was during this period ended September 30, 2025.
The Public Warrants were initially classified as a derivative liability
instrument. Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the Public Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815 are
no longer precluded from equity classification as they meet the “own equity” scope exception in ASC 815-10-15-74(a), allowing
these financial instruments to be classified as equity with no subsequent remeasurement. The Public Warrants are indexed to the Company’s
Common Stock as they meet both steps in the criteria under ASC 815-40-15-7, as they are not contingently exercisable and they are now
considered indexed to equity, as the contingent settlement provisions are no longer applicable subsequent to the Close. The Public Warrants
strike price and the number of shares used to calculate the settlement amount are fixed, so the instrument can be considered indexed to
an entity’s own stock (as the only variables that could affect the settlement amount would be inputs to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed
forward or option on equity shares).
The Private Warrants and Representative Warrants are not considered
indexed to an entity’s own stock, and fails Step 2 of ASC 815-40-15-7. As such, the Company continues to recognize the Private Placement
Warrants and Representative Share Warrants as liabilities at fair value as of the Closing Date, with an offsetting entry to additional
paid-in capital and adjusts the carrying value of the instruments to fair value through other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated
statement of operations at each reporting period until they are exercised. (See Note 4).
28
HCW Warrants
HCW acted as Profusa’s financial advisor in connection with
the Business Combination and received a transaction fee in connection therewith of $ 1,000,000 , payable in cash and 132,500 warrants to
acquire an aggregate of 132,500 shares of New Profusa Common Stock at an exercise price of $ 0.01 per share. The Company accounts for
the HCW warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815. Such guidance provides that the HCW warrants are not precluded
from equity classification. Equity-classified contracts are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value are not
recognized as long as the contracts continue to be classified in equity. The Company determined the initial fair value using a Black
Scholes pricing model. The initial fair value was $ 0.3 million.
ELOC
On July 28, 2025, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement
and the ELOC Registration Rights Agreement with Ascent. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in
the Purchase Agreement, from and after the Effective Date, the Company will have the right, in its sole discretion, to sell to Ascent
up to $ 100,000,000 of shares of its Common Stock, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement, from time to time
during the term of the Purchase Agreement. Sales of Common Stock by the Company to Ascent under the Purchase Agreement, and the timing
of any such sales, are solely at the Company’s option, and the Company is under no obligation to sell any securities to Ascent under the
Purchase Agreement. As of September 30, 2025, approximately $ 3.5 million in shares of its Common Stock was sold pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement.
Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the
obligation, from time to time at its sole discretion for a period of up to 36 months, unless the Purchase Agreement is earlier terminated,
to direct Ascent to purchase up to a specified maximum amount of shares of Common Stock in one or more purchases as set forth in the Purchase
Agreement, by delivering a written notice, if any, to Ascent in accordance with the Purchase Agreement on any trading day we select.
As consideration for Ascent’s commitment to purchase shares of
Common Stock at the Company’s direction upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, upon our
execution of the term sheet relating to the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued Ascent warrants (the “Commitment Warrants”)
to purchase up to 900,000 shares of Company Common Stock (the “Commitment Warrant Shares”). The Commitment Warrants have an
exercise price of $ 0.01 per shares and can be cashless exercised. The warrants were equity classified prior to their exercise due to the
terms of the warrant which was indexed to the Company’s own stock, settlement was in shares only, and the terms met the fixed-for-fixed
condition (fixed number of shares for fixed price). These warrants were recorded at their fair value on grant date which was $ 0.9 million
and were expensed to financing fees in accordance with US GAAP accounting for standby equity purchase agreements (“SEPA”).
Issuance fees such as warrant costs associated to a SEPA or ELOC are
expensed upfront, as this arrangement is not considered indexed to the Company's stock under step 2 in ASC 815-40-15-7 and therefore is
liability classified. The associated equity classified warrants were not remeasured after initial issuance, and as of September 30, 2025,
these warrants were exercised and all 900,000 shares of Common Stock were issued.
When the Company draws on the ELOC and issues shares, it recognizes
the proceeds in equity. The amount recorded is based on the fair value of the shares issued or the cash received, whichever is more reliably
measurable. The Company records the actual cash received for each draw, as this is clearly measurable and traceable.
29
Note 9 — Stock Option Plan
In 2010, Legacy Profusa adopted the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”) under which 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock have been initially reserved for issuance to employees,
directors and consultants. The number of reserved shares that had been increased over the years equaled 4,636,454 shares at the time of
the Business Combination. The Company is currently drafting a new 2025 Equity Incentive Plan that will replace the 2010 Equity Incentive
Plan. All previously issued options under the 2010 Equity Incentive plan will be held under the new plan, with no additional impact to
the option holders. Options granted under the Plan may be either incentive stock options (“ISO”) or nonqualified stock options
(“NSO”). ISOs may be granted only to Company employees, including officers and directors who are also employees. NSOs may
be granted to Company employees, consultants and advisors.
Upon the Closing, all outstanding Legacy Profusa options converted
into options exercisable for shares of Company Common Stock with the same terms except for the number of shares exercisable and the exercise
price, each of which was adjusted using the Exchange Ratio of approximately $ 0.346 . The mechanism of conversion resulted in the fair value
of each option prior to the Closing equal to the fair value of each option after. All stock option activity presented in these statements
has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the conversion.
A person who owns (or is deemed to own) stock possessing more than
ten percent ( 10 %) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company will not be granted an ISO unless the exercise
price of such option is at least one hundred ten percent ( 110 %) of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant and the option is not exercisable
after the expiration of five years from the date of grant. Options granted generally vest over four years .

During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there was
no stock option activity. Intrinsic values are calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying options and the
fair value of the common stock for the options that had exercise prices that were lower than the fair value per share of the common stock
on the date of exercise.
The total fair value of options vested for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was less than $ 0.1 million.
As of September 30, 2025, the total unrecognized stock-based compensation
expense for stock options was $ 3.0 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.3 years. The Company
estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of stock options is being recognized
on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards.
As of September 30, 2024, the total unrecognized stock-based compensation
expense for stock options was less than $ 0.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years. The
Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of stock options is being
recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards.
Nonrecourse Promissory Notes to Early Exercise Stock Options
In 2018, one of the Company’s executives early exercised 1,380,015
of his stock options by issuing a promissory note to the Company. As the promissory note is nonrecourse, this exercise of stock options
with a promissory note is not considered a substantive exercise for accounting purposes. Therefore, no receivable for the promissory note
was recorded on the Company’s balance sheet. This arrangement was accounted for as modifications to the original stock options which
were exercised by issuing a promissory note. Such modification did not result in additional stock-based compensation expense. The full
note amount of $ 428 thousand was considered settled and paid in full upon the Closing as this balance was netted within the total consideration
due to the Company’s CEO as payment for the successful Closing, and as such, the transaction was recorded in stock-based compensation.
The early exercised options were fully vested, with no remaining responsibility on a note as of July 11, 2025, at which time they converted
into Company Common Stock. On both July 11, 2025 and September 30, 2025 these exercised options are included in the Company’s Common
Stock outstanding.

Note 11 — Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Net loss per share of Company Common Stock is calculated in accordance
with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share using the two-class method. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. In periods of net loss, the two-class method requires that losses be allocated
only to common shareholders. The computation of diluted net loss per share does not include dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted-average
shares outstanding, as the inclusion of common stock equivalents would be antidilutive. The common stock equivalents consist of stock
options, convertible notes, warrants, and earn-out shares. Accordingly, for the periods presented in which the Company incurred a net
loss, basic and diluted EPS are the same.

The following tables represent weighted average shares using the recasted
common stock equity balance as presented in the Statement of Stockholders’ Deficit. The following table sets forth the computation
