Following the table, please see management’s discussion of significant changes. For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 EXPENSES Amortization $ 25,548 $ 24,341 General and Administrative 28,852 27,335 Professional Fees 76,149 67,802 Research and Development 58,208 57,625 Net loss for the period $ (188,757 ) (177,103 ) Gross Profit and Expenses The Company’s net loss was $188,757 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 compared to $177,103 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. The expenses were primarily incurred for professional fees, consulting services related to the operations of the Company’s business, research and development and other general and administrative expenses. Significant changes from the prior six-month period ended June 30, 2025 include: General and administrative fees remained almost flat with a small increase of $1,517 from $27,335 to $28,852. There are no current year marketing projects planned that will significantly increase related expenses. Increase due to higher office expenses. Professional fees increased by $8,347 from $67,802 to $76,149 due to increases in auditing fees and legal billing associated with year end reporting. Research and development expenditures slightly increased year over year with a change of $583 from $57,625 to $58,208 as the Company paid for molecule storage and consulting fees. The company continues to pursue research partners for cost sharing and engages institutes with grants available for continued studies on our patented AAGP molecule. 15 Liquidity and Capital Resources The following summarizes our balance sheet at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024: June 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Cash $ 112 $ (4,697 ) Working Capital $ (147,922 ) $ (127,694 ) At June 30, 2025, we had $112 in cash and $1,162 in total current assets and a negative working capital equity position of $(147,922). Based upon our working capital equity as of June 30, 2025, we will require additional equity and/or debt financing in order to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives. There can be no assurance that in the future we will be able to raise capital from outside sources in sufficient amounts to fund our new business. The failure to secure adequate outside funding would have an adverse effect on our plan of operation and results therefrom and a corresponding negative impact on stockholder liquidity. Sources and Uses of Cash Net Cash Used in Operating Activities Net cash used in operating activities remained flat, changing by $6,664 from $138,691 to $132,027 for the six-months ended June 30, 2024, and 2025, respectively. With the year over year change primarily from a change in accounts payable. Net Cash Used in Investing Activities Net cash used in investing activities was $30,664 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 while the Company had net cash used in investing activities of $35,517 for the comparative period. The difference is attributable to a year-to-date decrease in patent application billings for current year. Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities Net cash provided by financing activities fell $87,500 from $255,000 to $167,500 for the six-months ended June 30, 2024, and 2025, respectively. The decrease of funding from private placements through the first half of 2025 reflects investor support for our slowing of operations and focus on finding financial partners for further research and development. Going Concern The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The history of losses and the inability for the Company to make a profit from selling a good or service has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In spite of the fact that the current cash obligations of the Company are relatively minimal, given the cash position of the Company, we have very little cash to operate. We intend to fund the Company and attempt to meet corporate obligations by selling common stock. However, the price and volume of the Company’s common stock is volatile. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements None. Contractual Obligations As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by paragraph (a)(5) of this Item. Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make a variety of estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and (ii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements. Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increase, these judgments become even more subjective and complex. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates and assumptions based upon actual results may have a material impact on our results of operation and/or financial condition. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q. While all of the significant accounting policies are important to the Company’s financial statements, the following accounting policies and the estimates derived there from have been identified as being critical. 16 Share-Based Compensation The Company has granted warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to various parties for consulting services. The fair values of the warrants and options issued have been estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The Company accounts for stock compensation with persons classified as employees for accounting purposes in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which recognizes awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. Cliff Vesting is used and awards vest on the last day of the vesting period. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair value of common shares issued for services is determined based on the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance. Share-based compensation for non-employees in exchange for goods and services used or consumed in an entity’s own operations are also recorded at fair value on the measurement date and accounted for in accordance with ASC 718. The measurement of share-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying instruments vest. The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model and the compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period. Sales and Marketing The Company is currently not selling or marketing any products. Inflation Although management expects that our operations will be influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
