Q/C
TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes
to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note
1 – Organization and Description of Business
Q/C
Technologies, Inc, formally known as TNF Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a Delaware corporation (“QCLS” or the “Company”)
that was incorporated in New Jersey prior to the Reincorporation (as defined below) and was originally incorporated in Florida in November
2014. On July 22, 2024, the Company changed its name from MyMD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to TNF Pharmaceuticals, Inc. by filing a certificate
of amendment to its certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware. In addition, effective before the open of market
trading on July 24, 2024, the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) ceased trading under
the ticker symbol “MYMD” and began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol “TNFA.” On September
22, 2025, the Company again changed its name from TNF Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to Q/C Technologies, Inc. by filing a certificate of amendment
to its certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware. In addition, effective before the open of market trading
on September 25, 2025, the Company’s Common Stock, ceased trading under the ticker symbol “TNFA” and began trading
on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol “QCLS.”
As
part of the transition in the Company’s business model, on September 2, 2025, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase
Agreement (the “MIPA”), by and among the Company, LPU Holdings LLC (“LPU”) and the members of LPU (the “Sellers”),
pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire 100 %
of the membership interests (the “Membership Interests”) of LPU from the Sellers, and as a result, LPU became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company.
Additionally,
these consolidated financial statements include three wholly owned subsidiaries as of June 30, 2026, Akers Acquisition Sub, Inc., Bout
Time Marketing Corporation and LPU (together, the “Company”). All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation.
The
Company has historically been engaged in the development and commercialization of two therapeutic platforms based on well-defined targets:
(i) Isomyosamine (formerly known as MYMD-1), an oral, next-generation TNF-α inhibitor with the potential to transform the way TNF-α
based diseases are treated due to its selectivity and ability to cross the blood brain barrier. Its ease of oral dosing is a significant
differentiator compared to currently available TNF-α inhibitors, all of which require delivery by injection or infusion, and (ii)
and Supera-CBD.
On
August 29, 2025, the Company effected a 1-for-100 reverse stock split (the “2025 Reverse Stock Split”). The 2025 Reverse
Stock Split reduced the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including shares held by the Company as treasury
shares. All share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the 2025 Reverse Stock Split, unless stated otherwise.
In
2025, the Company shifted its business strategy to focus on energy-efficient blockchain, cryptocurrency infrastructure, and high-performance
computing through quantum-class laser-based computing. The Company’s core strategy had leveraged an exclusive global licensing
agreement with LightSolver Ltd. (“LightSolver”) to deploy innovative LPUs, specifically the Company-branded qc-LPU100™,
which harnesses the natural properties of light with the goal of achieving high computational speed and energy efficiency. On June 26,
2026, the Company provided notice of its intention to terminate the License Agreement (as defined below), effective as of June 26, 2026
(the “Termination”). In connection with the Termination, the Company was automatically and immediately relieved from its
obligation to make any additional milestone payments to LightSolver, and LightSolver has no right to receive any further contingent consideration
thereunder. Following the Termination, the Company determined to fully focus its efforts on its optical processing unit initiative, a
proprietary silicon photonic computing architecture for artificial intelligence inference. Additionally, the Company is researching and
designing quantum/laser-based computer technology.
The
Company is pre-revenue and only has investment income for the periods ending 2026 and 2025.

Note
2 – Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Basis of Presentation
The
condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in U.S. Dollars and in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company. These statements include all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) which management believes necessary for a fair presentation of the statements and have been prepared
on a consistent basis using the accounting policies described in Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies included in the Notes to Financial
Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2026 (the “2025 Annual Report”). Certain financial information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes that the accompanying disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
The Notes to Financial Statements including the 2025 Annual Report should be read in conjunction with the accompanying interim
financial statements. The interim operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, may not be necessarily indicative
of the operating results expected for the full year or any future period.
(b)
Use of Estimates and Judgments
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that
affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. Actual results may differ
from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized
in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Information about significant areas of estimation,
uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in
the financial statements is included in the following notes for recording the fair value of financial instruments, derivative financial
instruments valuations, research and development expenses, impairment of intangible assets and the valuation of share-based payments.
(c)
Functional and Presentation Currency
These
condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial
information has been rounded to the nearest dollar. Foreign Currency Transaction Gains or Losses, resulting from cash balances denominated
in Foreign Currencies, are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(d)
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The
Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 220 in reporting comprehensive
income. Comprehensive income (loss) is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial
information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income (loss). Since the Company has no items of other
comprehensive income (loss), comprehensive loss is equal to net loss.
(e)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments, which include short-term bank deposits (up to three months from date of deposit) that
are not restricted as to withdrawal date or use, to be cash equivalents.
9
(f)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair
value measurements discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of
and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current
assets, other assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2026, due to their short-term
nature. The fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative related to the convertible preferred stock was estimated using a Monte Carlo
simulation model, which uses as inputs the fair value of the Company’s Common Stock and estimates for the equity volatility and
traded volume volatility of the Company’s Common Stock, the time to maturity of the convertible preferred stock, the risk-free
interest rate for a period that approximates the time to maturity, dividend rate, a penalty dividend rate, and the probability of default.
The fair value of the warrant liabilities was estimated using the Black Scholes Model which uses as inputs the following weighted average
assumptions: dividend yield, expected term in years, equity volatility, and risk-free interest rate.
Fair
Value Measurement
The
framework for measuring fair value provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure
fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
(Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are
described as follows:
Level
1
Inputs
to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company
can access.
Level
2
Inputs
to the valuation methodology include:
●
quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
●
quoted
prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;
●
inputs
other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;
●
inputs
that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means
If
the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of
the asset or liability.
Level
3
Inputs
to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
The
asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is
significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs.
The
following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value as of June 30, 2026 and December 31,
2025.

resulting from the sales of marketable securities were $ 31,241 and $ 2,176 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Proceeds
from the sales of marketable securities in the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $ 4,379,638 and $ 10,659,546 , respectively.
Fair
Value on a Recurring Basis
The
Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each
reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The estimated
fair value of the warrant liabilities and bifurcated embedded derivatives represent Level 3 measurements. The following table presents
information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and December
31, 2025, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

(g)
Derivative Financial Instruments
The
Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded
derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “ Derivatives and Hedging .” If liability accounting is required, the
Company’s derivative instruments are recorded at fair value at the issuance date and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes
in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the balance sheet as
current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within twelve (12)
months of the balance sheet date.
The
Company has determined that the Series F Warrants are derivatives that are required to be accounted for as liabilities. The Company has
also determined that the following embedded features in the Series F Preferred Shares are not clearly and closely related to the debt
host instrument; 1) make-whole interest upon a contingent redemption event; 2) make-whole interest upon a conversion event; 3) an installment
redemption upon an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined in the Series F Certificate of Designations (as defined herein)); and 4) variable
share-settled installment conversion and as such are bifurcated from the Series F Preferred Shares and accounted for as liabilities.
The fair value of the Series F Warrants and embedded features are estimated using internal valuation models. The Company’s valuation
models utilize inputs and other assumptions and may not be reflective of the price at which they can be settled.
The
Company has determined that the Series F-1 Warrants are derivatives that are required to be accounted for as liabilities. The Company
has also determined that the following embedded features in the Series F-1 Preferred Shares are not clearly and closely related to the
debt host instrument: 1) make-whole interest upon a contingent redemption event; 2) make-whole interest upon a conversion event; 3) an
installment redemption upon an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined in the Series F-1 Certificate of Designation); and 4) variable share-settled
installment conversion and as such are bifurcated from the Series F-1 Preferred Shares and accounted for as liabilities. The fair value
of the Series F-1 Warrants and embedded features are estimated using internal valuation models. The Company’s valuation models
utilize inputs and other assumptions and may not be reflective of the price at which they can be settled.
Warrants
The
Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s
specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”)
and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition
of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including
whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net
cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This
assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly
period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For
issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component
of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification,
the warrants are required to be liability classified and recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and remeasured
at fair value and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash
gain or loss on the Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Modification
of warrants
The
Company applies the guidance in ASC 815-40 to account for warrants that are liability classified that are subsequently modified resulting
in a reclassification to equity. The warrants are remeasured at fair value on the modification date, the change in fair value is recognized
as a non-cash gain or loss on the Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss), and the warrants are reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
12
(h)
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid
expenses represent expenses paid prior to the date that the related services are rendered or used are comprised principally of prepaid
insurance and research and development expenses.
(i)
Concentrations
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash on deposit with financial
institutions and accounts receivable. At times, the Company’s cash in banks exceeds the FDIC insurance limit. The Company has not
experienced any loss because of these cash deposits. These cash balances are maintained with two banks as of June 30, 2026.
(j)
Risk Management of Cash and Investments
It
is the Company’s policy to minimize the Company’s capital resources to investment risks, prioritizing the preservation of
capital over investment returns. Investments are maintained in securities, primarily publicly traded, short-term money market funds based
on highly rated federal, state and corporate bonds, that minimize the risk to the Company’s capital resources and provide ready
access to funds.
The
Company’s investment portfolios are regularly monitored for risk and are held with one brokerage firm.
(k)
Investments
Investments
recorded using the cost method will be assessed for any decrease in value that has occurred that is other than temporary and the other
than temporary decrease in value shall be recognized. As and when circumstances and facts change, the Company will evaluate the Company’s
ability to significantly influence operational and financial policy to establish a basis for converting the investment accounted for
using the cost method to the equity method of valuation in accordance with FASB ASC 323.
In
accordance with FASB ASC 323, the Company recognizes investments in joint ventures based upon the Company’s ability to significantly
influence the operational or financial policies of the joint venture. An objective judgment of the level of influence is made at the
time of the investment based upon several factors including, but not limited to the following:
a)
Representation
on the Board of Directors
b)
Participation
in policy-making processes
c)
Material
intra-entity transactions
d)
Interchange
of management personnel
e)
Technological
dependencies
f)
Extent
of ownership and the ability to influence decision making based upon the makeup of other owners when the shareholder group is small.
The
Company follows the equity method for valuating investments in joint ventures when the existence of significant influence over operational
and financial policy has been established, as determined by management; otherwise, the Company will valuate these investments using the
cost method.
(l)
Property, Plant and Equipment
Items
of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Costs include
expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
Gains
and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying
amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognized within “operating income” in the Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations.
13
(l)
Property, Plant and Equipment, continued
Depreciation
is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of
the lease term or their useful lives.
The
estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date.
(m)
Intangible Assets
The
Company’s long-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, are assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate
there may be an impairment. These assets were initially recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition and assets
not acquired in acquisitions were recorded at historical cost. However, if their estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount,
other intangible assets with indefinite lives are reduced to their estimated fair value through an impairment charge in the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Patents
and Trade Secrets
Proprietary
protection for the Company’s products, technology and process is important to its competitive position. As of June 30, 2026, the
Company has issued 18 U.S. patents, 71 foreign patents, and 1 patent application is pending in the U.S. The Company also has one foreign
patent which has lapsed and 4 foreign patents which have been abandoned. The issued patents are expected to expire between 2036 and 2043.
Management intends to protect all other intellectual property (e.g. copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets) using all legal remedies
available to the Company.
The
Company records expenses related to the application for and maintenance of patents as a component of research and development expenses
on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss.
Patent
Costs
Patents
may be purchased from third parties. The costs of acquiring the patent are capitalized as patent costs if it represents a future economic
benefit to the Company. Once a patent is acquired it is amortized over its remaining useful life and assessed for impairment when necessary.
Other
Intangible Assets
Other
intangible assets that are acquired by the Company, which have definite useful lives, are measured at cost less accumulated amortization
and accumulated impairment losses.
Amortization
Amortization
is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that
they are available for use. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

(n)
Goodwill
Goodwill
is evaluated annually for impairment or whenever the Company identifies certain triggering events or circumstances that would more likely
than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount. Events or circumstances that might indicate an interim evaluation is warranted
include, among other things, unexpected adverse business conditions, economic factors (for example, the loss of key personnel), supply
costs, unanticipated competitive activities, and acts by governments and courts.
Goodwill
associated with the legacy business was evaluated at as of June 30, 2026 due to the change in the Company’s business model, which
could be viewed as a triggering event. The net equity of the legacy business was assessed and used to measure the associated net book
value of the goodwill. As of this measurement date, no impairment was required.
(o)
Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets
In
accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-35 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, long-lived assets to be held and used are
analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable
or that the useful lives of those assets are no longer appropriate. The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether events and
circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment.
The
Company determines the existence of such impairment by measuring the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges)
and comparing such amount to the carrying amount of the assets. An impairment loss, if one exists, is then measured as the amount by
which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the discounted estimated future cash flows. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the
lower of the carrying amount or fair value of such assets less costs to sell. Asset impairment charges are recorded to reduce the carrying
amount of the long-lived asset that will be sold or disposed of to their estimated fair values. Charges for the asset impairment reduce
the carrying amount of the long-lived assets to their estimated salvage value in connection with the decision to dispose of such assets.
(p)
Right-of-Use Assets
The
Company leased a facility in Baltimore, Maryland under an operating lease (“2024 Baltimore Lease”) with annual rentals of
$ 32,400 plus certain operating expenses. The 2024 Baltimore Lease took effect on May 1, 2024, for a term of 12 months with automatic
renewals unless sixty-day notice was provided. On February 26, 2025, the Company provided notice of its intention not to renew the Baltimore
Lease, effective April 30, 2025.
The Company began subleasing a facility in San Franscisco, California under an operating lease (“333 Bush Street Lease”) with
a monthly rent of $ 17,860 . The 333 Bush Street took effect on June 10, 2026, for a term of 25 months with no option for renewal.
In
accordance with FASB ASC, Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), which increases transparency and comparability by recognizing a
lessee’s rights and obligations resulting from leases by recording them on the balance sheet as lease assets and lease liabilities.
The guidance requires the recognition of the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and related operating and finance lease liabilities
on the balance sheet.
The
Company utilizes the package of practical expedients permitted within the standard, which allows an entity to forgo reassessing (i) whether
a contract contains a lease, (ii) classification of leases, and (iii) whether capitalized costs associated with a lease meet the definition
of initial direct costs. Also, the Company elected the expedient allowing an entity to use hindsight to determine the lease term and
impairment of ROU assets and the expedient to allow the Company to not have to separate lease and non-lease components. The Company has
also elected the short-term lease accounting policy under which the Company would not recognize a lease liability or ROU asset for any
lease that at the commencement date has a lease term of twelve months or less and does not include a purchase option that the Company
is more than reasonably certain to exercise.
15
(p)
Right-of-Use Assets, continued
For
operating leases, the lease liability is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments. The Company
generally uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases, unless an interest rate is implicitly stated in the lease.
The present value of the lease payments is calculated using the incremental borrowing rate for operating leases, which was determined
using a portfolio approach based on the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments
on a collateralized basis over a similar term. The lease term for all the Company’s leases includes the non-cancellable period
of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend the lease that the Company is reasonably certain
to exercise, or an option to extend the lease controlled by the lessor. All ROU assets are reviewed for impairment.
Lease
expense for operating leases consists of the lease payments plus any initial direct costs and is recognized on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.
The
Company’s operating leases are comprised of the 2024 Baltimore Lease on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The information
related to these leases is presented below.

(q)
Income Taxes
The
Company utilizes an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. The provision for income taxes
is based upon income or loss after adjustment for those permanent items that are not considered in the determination of taxable income.
Deferred income taxes represent the tax effects of differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of the Company’s assets
and liabilities at the enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.
The
Company evaluates the recoverability of deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that
some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws
that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In management’s opinion, adequate
provisions for income taxes have been made. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from estimates, additional allowances
or reversals of reserves may be necessary.
Tax
benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The
amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement.
A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in the Company’s tax returns that
do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, no liability for unrecognized tax
benefits was required to be reported.
There
was no income tax benefit recorded for the losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 since management determined
that the realization of the net deferred tax assets is not more likely than not to be realized and has recorded a full valuation allowance
on the net deferred tax assets.
The
Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with tax audits is to record such items as a component of general
and administrative expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties and interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026
and 2025. The Company does not expect its uncertain tax position to change during the next twelve months. Management is currently unaware
of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviations from its position.
The
Company files U.S. federal income tax returns and state income tax returns. Since the Company had losses in the past, all prior years
that generated net operating loss carryforwards are open and subject to audit examination in relation to the net operating loss generated
from those years.

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share of Common Stock
Basic
earnings per Common Stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings
per share is computed using the weighted average number of Common Stock plus dilutive Common Stock equivalents outstanding during the
period. Potential shares of Common Stock that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered anti-dilutive.
Diluted
net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and dilutive potential Common Stock outstanding
during the period.
As
the Company reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, Common Stock equivalents were anti-dilutive.
For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the following securities are excluded from the calculation of weighted average
dilutive Common Stock because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Stock-based Payments
The
Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards
Codification (ASC) 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation”, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation
expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date. The Company estimates
the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. The value of the portion of the award that is
ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line method. In June 2018,
the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“Topic 718”), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based
Payment Accounting (the “2018 Update”). The amendments in the 2018 Update expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based
payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. Prior to the 2018 Update, Topic 718 applied only to share-based
transactions to employees. Consistent with the accounting requirement for employee share-based payment awards, nonemployee share-based
payment awards within the scope of Topic 718 are measured at grant-date fair value of the equity instruments that an entity is obligated
to issue when the good has been delivered or the service has been rendered and any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit
from the instruments have been satisfied.
The
Company has elected to account for forfeiture of stock-based awards as they occur.
(t)
Research and Development Costs
In
accordance with FASB ASC 730, research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consist of fees paid to third parties that
conduct certain research and development activities on the Company’s behalf.
(u)
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
As
of June 30, 2026 and for the three and six months then ended, there were no recently issued accounting pronouncements that had a material
effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2026, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2026-01, “Equity (Topic 505): Initial Measurement of Paid-in-Kind Dividends on Equity-Classified
Preferred Stock”. The update provides authoritative guidance on the initial measurement of paid-in-kind (“PIK”) dividends
on equity-classified preferred stock and requires such dividends to be measured based on the stated PIK dividend rate and applicable
liquidation preference specified in the related preferred stock agreement. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating
the impact that adoption of ASU 2026-01 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet adopted
this standard.
In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-02, Environmental
Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818). The standard establishes a comprehensive accounting framework for the recognition, measurement, presentation and
disclosure of environmental credits and environmental credit obligations. The guidance applies to entities that generate, purchase, receive
or hold environmental credits and entities that are subject to environmental compliance obligations that may be settled using such credits.
Among other provisions, the standard establishes accounting models for environmental credit assets and related environmental credit obligation
liabilities. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new guidance. Based on its current
operations, the Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2026-02 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In
November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”,
which requires enhanced disclosures of specified natural expense categories included within relevant income statement captions. The standard
is intended to improve transparency by requiring disaggregation of expenses such as employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization
in tabular format within the notes to the financial statements. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2026, and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects that adoption will primarily
impact the presentation and disclosure of expenses and is currently evaluating the effect of this guidance on its disclosures.
Note
3 – Recent Developments, Liquidity and Management’s Plans
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company’s cash on hand was $ 307,612 and
marketable securities were $ 10,679,782 . The
Company has incurred a net loss from operations of $ 8,645,929 for
the six months ended June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had working capital of $ 8,175,648
and stockholders’ equity of $ 16,090,897 including
an accumulated deficit of $ 152,190,703 .
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, cash flows used in operating activities were $ 5,105,096
consisting primarily of a net loss of $ 7,859,013 .
Since its inception, the Company has met its liquidity requirements principally through the sale of its Common Stock and Preferred
Stock in public and private placements.
During
the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company raised $ 6,390,578 , net of offerings costs of $ 609,578 , through the private placement of
the Company’s Series H Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Additionally, the Company
collected net proceeds of $ 11,719,707 from shareholders exercising Common Stock warrants. During current reporting period, no additional
cash was raised.
The
Company evaluated the current cash requirements for operations in conjunction with management’s strategic plan and believes that
the Company’s current financial resources as of the date of the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements are
sufficient to fund its current operating budget and contractual obligations as of June 30, 2026 as they fall due within the next twelve-month
period, alleviating any substantial doubt raised by the Company’s historical operating results and satisfying its estimated liquidity
needs for twelve months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 6 – LightSolver Technology License
Termination
On June 26, 2026, the Company provided notice of
its intention to terminate the Technology License and Development Agreement, dated as of September 2, 2025 (the “License Agreement”),
by and among LightSolver, LPU Holdings LLC (“LPU”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and, solely with respect to
certain provisions of the License Agreement, the Company, effective as of June 26, 2026. The License Agreement had granted LPU an exclusive
license (the “Exclusive License”) to use and commercialize LightSolver’s proprietary laser processing hardware units
and related proprietary technology for cryptocurrency mining applications, which the Company had determined to be an indefinite-lived
intangible asset not subject to amortization. In connection with the Termination, LPU was automatically and immediately relieved from
its obligation to make any additional milestone payments to LightSolver, and LightSolver has no right to receive any further contingent
consideration thereunder. As a result of the Termination, the Company recorded an impairment charge with respect to the Exclusive License,
which is reflected as “Impairment of Technology License” within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

shares, of which 1,250,000,000
are shares of Common Stock, and 50,000,000

Preferred
Stock
The
holders of preferred shares or preferred warrants are entitled to vote, as determined and as limited by the certificate of designation
for each class of preferred shares or warrants, at meetings of the Company stockholders.
22
Series
D Convertible Preferred Stock
The
following are the principal terms of the Series D Preferred Stock:
Rank
The
Series D Preferred Stock ranks (1) on parity with Common Stock on an “as converted” basis, (2) senior to any series of the
Company’s capital stock hereafter created specifically ranking by its terms junior to the Series D Preferred Stock, (3) on parity
with any series of the Company’s capital stock hereafter created specifically ranking by its terms on parity with the Series D
Preferred Stock, and (4) junior to any series of the Company’s capital stock hereafter created specifically ranking by its terms
senior to the Series D Preferred Stock in each case, as to dividends or distributions of assets upon the Company’s liquidation,
dissolution or winding up whether voluntary or involuntary.
Conversion
Rights
A
holder of Series D Preferred Stock is entitled at any time to convert any whole or partial number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock
into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, determined by dividing the stated value equal to $ 0.01 by the conversion price of $ 0.01
per share. A holder of Series D Preferred Stock is prohibited from converting Series D Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock if,
as a result of such conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would own more than 4.99% of the total number of shares of
the Company’s Common Stock then issued and outstanding (with such ownership restriction referred to as the “Series D Beneficial
Ownership Limitation”) immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Series D Preferred Stock. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%,
provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days after such notice to us. The conversion rate of the
Series D Preferred Stock is subject to proportionate adjustments for stock splits, reverse stock splits and similar events, but is not
subject to adjustment based on price anti-dilution provisions.
Dividend
Rights
In
addition to stock dividends or distributions for which proportionate adjustments will be made, holders of Series D Preferred Stock are
entitled to receive dividends on shares of Series D Preferred Stock equal, on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis, to and in the
same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Common Stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of the Common Stock.
No other dividends are payable on shares of Series D Preferred Stock.
Voting
Rights
Subject
to the Series D Beneficial Ownership Limitation, on any matter presented to the Company’s stockholders for their action or consideration
at any meeting of the Company’s stockholders (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting), each holder, in its
capacity as such, shall be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of the Company’s Common Stock
into which the Series D Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder are convertible as of the record date for determining stockholders
entitled to vote on or consent to such matter (taking into account all Series D Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder). Except
as otherwise required by law or by the other provisions of the Certificate of Designation of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the
“Series D Certificate of Designation”), the holders of Series D Preferred Stock, in their capacity as such, shall vote together
with the holders of the Company’s Common Stock and any other class or series of stock entitled to vote thereon as a single class.
23
Liquidation
Rights
Upon
any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series D Preferred Stock
are entitled to receive, pari passu with the holders of Common Stock, out of the assets available for distribution to stockholders
an amount equal to such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of Series D Preferred Stock been converted into Common
Stock immediately before such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, without giving effect to any limitation on conversion as a result
of the Series D Beneficial Ownership Limitation, as described above.
Exchange
Listing
Series
D Preferred Stock is not listed on the Nasdaq, any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. The Company’s
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock is listed on the Nasdaq under the symbol “QCLS”.
Failure
to Deliver Conversion Shares
If
the Company fails to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock (the “Series D Conversion
Shares”) within the time period specified in the Series D Certificate of Designation (within two trading days after delivery of
the notice of conversion, or any shorter standard settlement period in effect with respect to trading market on the date notice is delivered),
then the Company is obligated to pay to the holder, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to $25 per trading day (increasing to $50
per trading day on the third trading day and $100 per trading day on the sixth trading day) for each $5,000 of stated value of Series
D Preferred Stock being converted which are not timely delivered. If the Company makes such liquidated damages payments, the Company
is also not obligated to make Series D Buy-In (as defined below) payments with respect to the same Series D Conversion Shares.
Compensation
for Series D Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Shares
If
the Company fails to timely deliver the Series D Conversion Shares to the holder, and if after the required delivery date the holder
is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the holder or its brokerage firm otherwise purchases,
shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the holder of the Series D Conversion Shares which the holder anticipated
receiving upon such conversion or exercise (a “Series D Buy-In”), then the Company is obligated to (A) pay in cash to such
holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by such holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) such holder’s
total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1)
the aggregate number of Series D Conversion Shares that such holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by
(2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions)
and (B) at the option of such holder, either reissue (if surrendered) the shares of Series D Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares
of Series D Preferred Stock submitted for conversion (in which case, such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to such holder
the number of Series D Conversion Shares that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements.

Series
F Convertible Preferred Stock
On
February 21, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Series F Purchase Agreement”) with certain
accredited investors (the “Series F Investors”), pursuant to which it agreed to sell to the Investors (i) an aggregate of
15,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series F convertible preferred stock (the “Series F Preferred Shares”)
with a stated value of $ 1,000 per share, initially convertible into up to 66,523 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an initial
conversion price of $ 225.50 per share (the “Series F Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment, and (ii) warrants to acquire
up to an aggregate of 66,523 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, subject to adjustment (the “Series F Warrants”)
(collectively, the “February 2023 Offering”). The Series F Preferred Shares became convertible upon issuance into Common
Stock (the “Series F Conversion Shares”) at the election of the holder at any time at an initial conversion price of $ 225.50 .
The Series F Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like,
and subject to price-based adjustment in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable
for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series F Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions).
24
Following
the Company’s one-for-thirty reverse stock split of its Common Stock in February 2024 (the “2024 Reverse Stock Split”),
the conversion price of the Series F Preferred Shares was adjusted to $ 318.00 per share pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations
of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, which was subsequently amended and restated by the filing of the Amended and Restated Certificate
of Designations of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, effective April 8, 2024 and which was amended and restated by the filing of
the Second and Amended Certificate of Designations of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, effective September 3, 2025 (as amended and
restated, the “Series F Certificate of Designations”). In connection with the Private Placements (as defined herein), (i)

provisions contained in the Series F Certificate of Designations. On April 17, 2025, in connection with the issuance of stock options
to certain officers of the Company and pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series F Certificate of

1-for-100 reverse stock split (the “2025 Reverse Stock Split”), and pursuant to the stock combination event adjustment provisions

26
The
Series F Preferred Shares are classified in temporary equity as the holder of the Series F Preferred Shares have the right to require
the Company to redeem for cash all or any portion of each such holder’s shares upon the suspension from trading or the failure
of the Common Stock to be trading or listed (as applicable) on an eligible trading market for a period of five (5) consecutive trading
days. The Series F Preferred Shares are not unconditionally redeemable and are only conditionally puttable at the holder’s option
upon this trading suspension or failure. This would not be considered to be within the Company’s control.
The
Series F Preferred Shares were determined to be more akin to a debt-like host than an equity-like host. The Company identified the following
embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument: 1) make-whole interest upon a contingent redemption
event, 2) make-whole interest upon a conversion event, 3) an installment redemption upon an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined in
the Series F Certificate of Designations), and 4) variable share-settled installment conversion. These features were bundled together,
assigned probabilities of being affected and measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value of these features are recognized
in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company estimated at issuance the $ 3,149,800 fair value of the bifurcated embedded
derivative using a Monte Carlo simulation model, with the following inputs; the fair value of the Company’s Common Stock of $ 190.00
on the issuance date, estimated equity volatility of 120.0 %, estimated traded volume volatility of 190.0 %, the time to maturity of 1.35
years, a discounted market interest rate of 6.8 %, dividend rate of 10.0 %, a penalty dividend rate of 15.0 %, and probability of default
of 0.5 %. The fair value of the bifurcated derivative liabilities was estimated utilizing the with and without method which uses the probability
weighted difference between the scenarios with the derivative and the plain vanilla maturity scenario without a derivative.
The
discount to the fair value is included as a reduction to the carrying value of the Series F Preferred Shares. The Company recorded a
total discount of $ 14,087,111 upon issuance of the Series F Preferred Shares, which was comprised of the issuance date fair value of
the associated embedded derivative of $ 3,149,800 , stock issuance costs of $ 314,311 and the fair value of the Series F Warrants of $ 10,623,000 .
The
Company performed an analysis of the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities pre and post the September 2, 2025 modification
and determined the change in fair value to be immaterial. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded
gains of $ 0 and $ 0 , respectively, related to the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities which is recorded in other income
(expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded
gains of $ 0 and $ 0 , respectively, related to the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities which is recorded in other income
(expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Series F Preferred Stock were fully converted during the three
months ended September 30, 2025. The derivative liability is reclassified to equity upon final conversion. Since the derivative had a
fair value of $ 0 at time of conversion and there was no impact to equity.
The
following are the principal terms of the Series F Preferred Shares:
Dividends
The
holders of the Series F Preferred Shares are entitled to dividends of 10.0 % per annum, compounded monthly, which are payable in cash
or shares of Common Stock at the Company’s option, in accordance with the terms of the Series F Certificate of Designations. Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Series F Certificate of Designations), Series F Preferred
Shares will accrue dividends at the rate of 15.0 % per annum. Upon conversion or redemption, the holders of Series F Preferred Shares
are also entitled to receive a dividend make-whole payment. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded
no dividends for Series F Preferred Shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded no dividends for
Series F Preferred Shares.
27
Liquidation
Upon
any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, each holder of the Series F Preferred Shares
shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company an amount per share of Series F Preferred
Shares equal to the greater of (A) 125% of the stated value of such share of Series F Preferred Shares (plus any applicable make-whole
amount, unpaid late charge or other applicable amount) on the date of such payment and (B) the amount per share such holder would receive
if such holder converted such share of Series F Preferred Shares into Common Stock immediately prior to the date of such payment. All
shares of capital stock of the Company shall be junior in rank to all Series F Preferred Shares with respect to the preferences as to
payments upon liquidation.

aggregate of 5,050 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series F-1 Preferred Stock, initially convertible into up to 27,813
shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $ 181.60 per share (the “Series F-1 Conversion Shares”), (ii) short-term warrants
to acquire up to an aggregate of 27,813 shares of Common Stock (the “Series F-1 Short-Term Warrants”) at an exercise price

exercise price of $ 181.60 per share (collectively, the “Series F-1 Private Placement”). The closing of the Series F-1 Private
Placement occurred on May 23, 2024 (the “Series F-1 Closing Date”). The Series F-1 Conversion Price is subject to customary
adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment in the event of
any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable
Series F-1 Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions).
On
April 17, 2025, in connection with the issuance of stock options to certain officers of the Company and pursuant to the full ratchet
anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series F Certificate of Designations the Series F-1 Conversion Price was adjusted to $ 18.32
per share. In September 2025, in connection with the 2025 Reverse Stock Split, and pursuant to the stock combination event adjustment
provisions contained in the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations, the Series F-1 Conversion Price was reduced to $ 3.3713 per share.
The
Company initially was required to redeem the Series F-1 Preferred Stock in equal monthly installments, commencing on December 1, 2024.
The amortization payments due upon such redemption are payable, at the Company’s election, in cash at 105% of the applicable Installment
Redemption Amount (as defined in the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations), or subject to certain limitations, in shares of Common
Stock valued at the lower of (i) the Series F-1 Conversion Price then in effect and (ii) the greater of (A) 80% of the average of the
three lowest closing prices of the Company’s Common Stock during the thirty consecutive trading day period ending and including
the trading day immediately prior to the date the amortization payment is due or (B) $0.364, which is 20% of the “Minimum Price”
(as defined in Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5635) on the date in which the Series F-1 Stockholder Approval (as defined herein) was obtained
or, in any case, such lower amount as permitted, from time to time, by the Nasdaq Capital Market, and, in each case, subject to adjustment
for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar events, which amortization amounts are subject
to certain adjustments as set forth in the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations (the “Series F-1 Floor Price”).
On
April 8, 2025, the Company entered into the April 2025 Amendment Agreement with the Required Holders (as defined in the Series F Certificate
of Designations and Series F-1 Certificate of Designations), pursuant to which, the Required Holders agreed to amend (i) the Series F-1
Certificate of Designations, as described below, by filing the April 2025 Series F-1 Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State
of the State of Delaware, (ii) the Series F Certificate of Designations, as described below, by filing the April 2025 Series F Certificate
of Amendment, (iii) the Series F-1 Purchase Agreement, to amend the definition of “Excluded Securities” such that the definition

and outstanding as of the date of such issuance, and (iv) to amend the term of the Series F-1 Short-Term Warrants to be five years from
the date of issuance. In addition, in consideration of the foregoing, the Company agreed to reduce the size of the board of directors
of the Company to no more than six directors, no later than the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.
28
The
April 2025 Series F-1 Certificate of Amendment amends the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations to amend the definition of “Excluded
Securities” substantially similar to the Excluded Securities Modification. The April 2025 Series F-1 Certificate of Amendment was
filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, effective as of April 8, 2025.
On
August 19, 2025, the Company entered the August 2025 Amendment Agreement with the Required Holders (as defined in the Series F Certificate
of Designations and Series F-1 Certificate of Designations), pursuant to which, the Required Holders agreed to amend (i) the Series F-1
Certificate of Designations, as described below, by filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations with
the Secretary of State, (ii) the Series F Certificate of Designations, as described below, by filing a Certificate of Amendment to the
Series F Certificate of Designations with the Secretary of State, and (iii) to amend the term of the Series F Warrants and Series F-1
Warrants such that such warrants have a term expiring on August 15, 2030. In addition, in consideration of the foregoing, the Required
Holder is entitled to nominate one director to the board of directors, provided that such nomination shall be approved by the Company’s
Nominating and Governance Committee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The
August 2025 Series F Certificate of Amendment amends the Series F Certificate of Designations to (A) (i) extend the maturity date to
December 31, 2025, and (ii) modify the schedule of Installment Dates (as defined in the Series F Certificate of Designations), in each
case, effective as of June 30, 2025. The August 2025 Series F-1 Certificate of Amendment amends the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations
to (A) (i) extend the maturity date to December 31, 2025, and (ii) modify the schedule of Installment Dates (as defined in the Series
F Certificate of Designations), in each case, effective as of June 30, 2025.
On
September 2, 2025, the Company entered into the September 2025 Omnibus Amendment with the Required Holders (as defined in each of (i)
the Series F Certificate of Designations and (ii) the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations) pursuant to which, the Required Holders
agreed to (i) amend and restate the Series F Certificate of Designations by filing a Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations
of the Series F Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State, and (ii) amend and restate the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations by
filing an Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations of the Series F-1 Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State. Each of the
Second Amended and Restated Series F Certificate of Designations and the Amended and Restated Series F-1 Certificate of Designations
(i) extend the maturity date of each of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock and Series F-1 Convertible Preferred Stock to March 2, 2027,
and (ii) remove the amortization payments and related terms and covenants.
The
shares of Series F-1 Preferred Stock are classified as temporary equity as the holders of the Series F-1 Preferred Stock have the right
to require the Company to redeem for cash all or any portion of each such holder’s shares upon the suspension from trading or the
failure of the Common Stock to be trading or listed (as applicable) on an eligible trading market for a period of five (5) consecutive
trading days. The Series F-1 Preferred Stock is not unconditionally redeemable and is only conditionally puttable at the holder’s
option upon this trading suspension or failure. This would not be considered to be within the Company’s control.
The
estimated fair value of the Series F-1 Preferred Stock on the issuance date of approximately $ 9.3 million, was determined utilizing Monte
Carlo simulations. The estimated aggregate fair value of the Series F-1 Warrants of approximately $ 7.9 million was determined utilizing
the Black Scholes Model. The aggregate fair value of the Series F-1 Warrants exceeds the aggregate gross proceeds from the transaction
as the Series F-1 Warrants were issued below fair market value of the Company’s Common stock. Further, the fair value of the derivative
liability related to the Series F-1 Preferred Stock was determined to be approximately $ 0.9 million on the date of issuance.
The
approximately $ 5.1 million stock discount (contra-Preferred Stock) resulting from (i) approximately $4.2 million related to the difference
between the gross proceeds and the allocated residual fair value of the Series F-1 Preferred Stock (i.e., $0), and (ii) approximately
$0.9 million related to the stock derivative at issuance, is accounted for as a reduction to the carrying value of the Series F-1 Preferred
Shares and will be accreted from the issuance date to maturity in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A as redemption is deemed probable
pursuant to the Installment Redemption terms of the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations.
29
The
Company performed an analysis of the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities pre and post the September 2, 2025 modification
and determined the change in fair value to be immaterial. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded

would receive if such holder converted such share of Series F-1 Preferred Stock into Common Stock immediately prior to the date of such
payment. All shares of capital stock of the Company shall be junior in rank to all shares of Series F-1 Preferred Stock with respect
to the preferences as to payments upon liquidation.
Series
G Preferred Stock
On
May 20, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Series G Purchase Agreement” and collectively
with the Series F-1 Purchase Agreement, each a “Purchase Agreement” and collectively, the “Purchase Agreements”)
with certain accredited investors (the “Series G Investors” and collectively with the Series F-1 Investors, the “Investors”),
with certain accredited investors (the “Series G Investors”), pursuant to which it agreed to sell to the Series G Investors
(i) an aggregate of 8,950 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series G Preferred Stock, initially convertible into up to 49,288
shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at a conversion price of $ 181.60 per share (ii) short-term warrants to acquire up to an aggregate
of 49,288 shares of Common Stock (the “Series G Short-Term Warrants”) at an exercise price of $ 181.60 per share, and (iii)
long-term warrants to acquire up to an aggregate of 49,288 shares of Common Stock (the “Series G Long-Term Warrants,” and
collectively with the Series G Short-Term Warrants, the “Series G Warrants”) at an exercise price of $ 181.60 per share (collectively,
the “Series G Private Placement” and collectively with the Series F-1 Private Placement, each a “Private Placement”
and collectively, the “Private Placements”). The closing of the Series G Private Placement occurred on May 23, 2024 (the
“Series G Closing Date” and collectively with the Series F-1 Closing Date, the “Closing Date”). The Series G
Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to
price-based adjustment in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common
Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series G Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions).
30
On
April 17, 2025, in connection with the issuance of stock options to certain officers of the Company, (i) the Series G Conversion Price
was equal to $ 18.32 per share due to the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series G Certificate of Designations.
In August 2025, in connection with the 2025 Reverse Stock Split, and pursuant to the stock combination event adjustment provisions contained
in the Series G Certificate of Designations, the Series G Conversion Price was reduced to $ 3.3713 per share.
At
any time after the issuance date of the Series G Preferred Shares, the Company has the option to redeem in cash all or any portion of
the shares of Series G Preferred Shares then outstanding at a premium upon notice by the Company to all holders of the Series G Preferred
Shares.
The
holders of the Series G Preferred Shares will be entitled to dividends of 10 %
per annum, compounded monthly, which will be payable in arrears monthly, at the holder’s options, (i) in cash, (ii) “in kind”
in the form of additional shares of Series G Preferred Shares (the “PIK Shares”), or (iii) in a combination thereof, in each
case, in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designations of the Series G Preferred Stock (the “Series G Certificate
of Designations”). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Series G Certificate
of Designations), the Series G Preferred Stock will accrue dividends at the rate of 15 %
per annum. Upon conversion or redemption, the holders of the Series G Preferred Shares are also entitled to receive a dividend make-whole
payment. The holders of the Series G Preferred Shares will be entitled to vote with holders of the Common Stock on as as-converted basis,
with the number of votes to which each holder of Series G Preferred Share is entitled to be calculated assuming a conversion price of
$ 2.253
per share, which was the Minimum Price (as defined in Rule
5635 of the Rule of the Nasdaq Stock Market) applicable immediately before the execution and delivery of the Series G Purchase Agreement,
subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations as set forth in the Series G Certificate of Designations. During the three months
ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded dividends totaling $ 226,408
and $ 0 ,
respectively, which are reported as Preferred Stock Dividends on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the six months ended
June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded dividends totaling $ 447,824
and $ 0 ,
respectively, which are reported as Preferred Stock Dividends on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company’s ability to settle conversions and make dividend make-whole payments using shares of Common Stock is
subject to certain limitations set forth in the Series G Certificate of Designations. Further, the Series G Certificate of Designations
contains a certain beneficial ownership limitation, which applies to each Series G Investor, other than PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc., after
giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series G Preferred Shares or as part of any dividend
make-whole payment under the Series G Certificate of Designations.
Upon
any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, each holder of shares of the Series G Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company an amount per share of Series G Preferred
Stock equal to the greater of (A) 125% of the stated value of such share of Series G Preferred Stock (plus any applicable make-whole
amount, unpaid late charge or other applicable amount) on the date of such payment and (B) the amount per share such holder would receive
if such holder converted such share of Series G Preferred Stock into Common Stock immediately prior to the date of such payment. All
shares of capital stock of the Company shall be junior in rank to all shares of Series G Preferred Stock with respect to the preferences
as to payments upon liquidation.
On
June 17, 2024, the Company entered into an Amendment Agreement (the “Series G Amendment”) with the Required Holders (as defined
in the Series G Certificate of Designations). Pursuant to the Series G Amendment, the Required Holders agreed to amend the Series G Certificate
of Designations by filing a Certificate of Amendment (“Series G Certificate of Amendment”) to the Series G Certificate of
Designations with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Secretary of State”) to increase the number of authorized
shares of Series G Preferred Stock from 8,950 to 12,826,273 , in order to authorize a sufficient number of shares of Series G Preferred
Stock for the payment of PIK Shares. On June 17, 2024, the Company filed the Series G Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of
State, thereby amending the Series G Certificate of Designations. The Series G Certificate of Amendment became effective with the Secretary
of State upon filing.
31
The
shares Series G Preferred Stock are classified as temporary equity as the holders of the Series G Preferred Stock have the right to require
the Company to redeem for cash all or any portion of each such holder’s shares upon the suspension from trading or the failure
of the Common Stock to be trading or listed (as applicable) on an eligible trading market for a period of five (5) consecutive trading
days. The Series G Preferred Stock is not unconditionally redeemable and is only conditionally puttable at the holder’s option
upon this trading suspension or failure. This would not be considered to be within the Company’s control.
The
estimated fair value of the Series G Preferred Stock on the issuance date of approximately $ 22.3 million, was determined utilizing Monte
Carlo simulations. The estimated aggregate fair value of the Series G Warrants of approximately $ 14.1 million was determined utilizing
the Black Scholes Model. The aggregate fair value of the Series G Warrants exceeds the aggregate gross proceeds from the transaction
as the Series G Warrants were issued below fair market value of the Company’s Common stock.
The
approximately $ 9.0 million stock discount (contra-Preferred Stock) resulting from the difference between the gross proceeds and the allocated
residual fair value of the Series G Preferred Stock (i.e. $ 0 ) is accounted for as a reduction to the carrying value of the Series G Preferred
Stock and is not accreted until redemption becomes probable in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A.
Since
the fair value of the liabilities required to be subsequently measured at fair value exceeds the net proceeds received, the excess of
the fair value over the net proceeds received is recognized as a loss in earnings. As such, the Company recognized a loss on the issuance
of preferred stock of approximately $ 5.1 million.
On
August 8, 2024, the Company entered into an Amendment Agreement (the “August Series G Amendment”) with the Required Holders
(as defined in the Series G Certificate of Designations). Pursuant to the August Series G Amendment, the Required Holders agreed to amend
the Series G Certificate of Designations by filing a Certificate of Amendment (“August Series G Certificate of Amendment”)
to the Series G Certificate of Designations with the Secretary of State to adjust the calculation of the PIK Shares. On August 8, 2024,
the Company filed the August Series G Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State, thereby amending the Series G Certificate
of Designations. The August Series G Certificate of Amendment became effective with the Secretary of State upon filing.
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the Company issued Series G Convertible Preferred Stock in lieu of dividends. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued a total of $ 0
and $ 357,375
respectively, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company issued a total of $ 537,000
and $ 1,193,000
respectively.
Series
H Preferred Stock
On
September 2, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Series H Purchase Agreement”) with certain
accredited investors (the “Series H Investors”) pursuant to which it agreed to sell to the Series H Investors (i) an aggregate
of 7,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series H Preferred Stock, initially convertible into up to 1,400,000 shares of
Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $ 5.00 per share (the “Series H Conversion Shares”), and (ii) warrants to acquire
up to an aggregate of 1,400,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Series H Warrants”) at an exercise price of $ 5.00 per share
(collectively, the “Series H Private Placement”). The closing of the Series H Private Placement occurred on September 4,
2024 (the “Series H Closing Date”). The aggregate gross proceeds from the Private Placement were $ 7,000,000 .
The
Series H Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and
subject to price-based adjustment in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable
for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series H Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions). In September 2025,
in connection with the 2025 Reverse Stock Split and pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series H Certificate
of Designations, the Series H Conversion Price was reduced to $ 3.3713 per share.
32
The
holders of the Series H Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends of 7 %
per annum, compounded monthly, which will be payable in cash. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event
(as defined in the Certificate of Designations of the Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H Certificate of
Designations”)), the Series H Preferred Stock will accrue dividends at the rate of 15 %
per annum. The holders of the Series H Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote with holders of the Common Stock on as as-converted
basis, with the number of votes to which each holder of Series H Preferred Stock is entitled to be calculated assuming a conversion
price of $ 4.83
per share, which was the Minimum Price (as defined in Rule 5635 of the Rule of the Nasdaq Stock Market) applicable immediately
before the execution and delivery of the Series H Purchase Agreement, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations as set
forth in the Series H Certificate of Designations. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded
dividends totaling $ 55,999
and $ 0 ,
respectively, which are reported as Preferred Stock Dividends on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the six months
ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded dividends totaling $ 111,998 and $ 0 , respectively, which are reported as Preferred Stock Dividends on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company’s ability to settle conversions is subject to certain limitations set forth in the Series H Certificate
of Designations, including a limit on the number of shares that may be issued until the time, if any, that the Company’s stockholders
have approved the issuance of more than 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock in accordance with Nasdaq listing
standards (the “September 2025 Stockholder Approval”). The Company has agreed to seek stockholder approval of these matters
at a meeting to be held no later than November 16, 2025. Further, except with respect to Pharmacyte, the Series H Certificate of Designations
contains a certain beneficial ownership limitation after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of the Series H Certificate of Designations or Series H Warrants.
The
shares of Series H Preferred Stock were determined to be more akin to a debt-like host than an equity-like host. The Company identified
the following embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument: 1) certain contingent redemption
options, 2) optional conversion features inclusive of make-whole interest and 3) an increase in the dividend rate related to the occurrence
of a triggering event. These features were bundled together, assigned probabilities of being affected and measured at fair value. Subsequent
changes in fair value of these features are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company estimated the $ 1,837,000
fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative at issuance using a discounted cash flow scenario model, with the following inputs:
the fair value of our common stock of $ 3.61 on the issuance date, estimated equity volatility of 100.0 %, the time to maturity of 1.49
years, the redemption premium of 106 %, a market interest rate of 19.51 %, a risk-free rate of 3.61 %, and dividend rate of 7 %. The fair
value of the bifurcated derivative liability was estimated utilizing the with and without method which uses the probability weighted
difference between the scenarios with the derivative and the plain vanilla maturity scenario without a derivative.
The
discount to the fair value is included as a reduction to the carrying value of the Series H Preferred Stock. On September 30, 2025, the
Company recorded a total discount of $ 4,472,000 upon issuance of the Series H Preferred Stock, which was comprised of the issuance date
fair value of the associated embedded derivative of $ 1,837,000 , stock issuance costs of $ 425,063 , and amount allocated to the Series
H Warrants of $ 2,209,937 .
In
connection with the Series H Private Placement, the Company and the Series H Investors entered into that certain Registration Rights
Agreement, dated as of September 2, 2025 (the “Series H Registration Rights Agreement,” and, together with the Series H Purchase
Agreement, the Series H Certificate of Designations, and the Series H Warrants, the “Transaction Documents”), pursuant to
which, the Company agreed to, among other things, prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement (the “Series H Registration
Statement”) covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Series H Registration Rights Agreement)
prior to the applicable Filing Deadline (as defined in the Series H Registration Rights Agreement).
On
September 30, 2025, the Company entered into an Omnibus Waiver and Amendment (the “September 2025 Amendment”) with the Required
Holders (as defined in the Series H Certificate of Designations). Pursuant to the Amendment, the Required Holders agreed (A) to amend
(i) the Series H Certificate of Designations, as described below, by filing a Certificate of Amendment (“September 2025 Certificate
of Amendment”) to the Series H Certificate of Designations with the Secretary of State, (ii) the Series H Purchase Agreement to
amend the definition of “Excluded Securities” such that the definition includes the issuance of Common Stock issued after
the date of the Series H Purchase Agreement pursuant to an Approved Stock Plan (as defined in the Series H Purchase Agreement) which
in the aggregate does not exceed more than 15.0% of the sum of (x) shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the date of the
Series H Purchase Agreement, and (y) the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of certain of the Company’s outstanding
shares of preferred stock (the “Excluded Securities Modification”), and (iii) the Series H Registration Rights Agreement
such that the Series H Registration Statement is required to be filed with the SEC by the date that is 30 calendar days following the
Series H Closing Date and (B) waive (i) any prohibitions or limitations under the Transaction Documents in connection with the issuance
by the Company of certain warrants to purchase Common Stock to certain current and future consultants of the Company, (ii) any prohibitions
or limitations under the Transaction Documents in connection with the registration of certain securities of the Company, and (iii) any
failure by the Company to file the Series H Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline.
The
September 2025 Certificate of Amendment amends the Series H Certificate of Designations to amend the definition of “Excluded Securities”
substantially similar to the Excluded Securities Modification. On October 3, 2025, the Company filed the September 2025 Certificate of
Amendment with the Secretary of State, thereby amending the Series H Certificate of Designations. The September 2025 Certificate of Amendment
became effective with the Secretary of State upon filing.

Series G Conversion Price was adjusted to $ 18.32 per share pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions contained in the applicable
Certificate of Designations and, (ii) the Series F Exercise Price, the Series F-1 Conversion Price and Series G Exercise Price was adjusted

34
Series
F Common Stock Warrants
Pursuant
to the February 2023 Offering, the Company issued to investors the Series F Warrants to purchase 66,523 shares of Common Stock, with
an initial exercise price of $ 225.50 per share, which, as of June 30, 2026, was adjusted to $ 3.3713 per share and the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants was adjusted proportionally to 4,449,325 shares pursuant to the full
ratchet anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series F Warrants in connection with the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion
of the Series F-1 Preferred Shares (the “Series F Exercise Price”), for a period of five years from the date of issuance.
The Series F Exercise Price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants are subject to customary adjustments
for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment, on a “full ratchet”
basis, in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price
below the then-applicable Exercise Price (subject to certain exceptions). Upon any such price-based adjustment to the exercise price,
the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants will be increased proportionately.
Following
the 2024 Reverse Stock Split, the exercise price of the Series F Warrants was reduced to $ 318.00 per share pursuant to the stock combination
event adjustment provisions contained in the Series F Warrants and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Series F Warrants was adjusted proportionately. In May 2024, in connection with the Private Placements, the exercise price of the Series
F Warrants was reduced to $ 181.60 per share pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series F Warrants
and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants was adjusted proportionately. On April 17, 2025,
in connection with the issuance of stock options to certain officers of the Company and pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions
contained in the Series F Warrants, the exercise price of the Series F Warrants was reduced to $ 18.32 per share and the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants was adjusted proportionately. In September 2025, in connection with the
2025 Reverse Stock Split and pursuant to the stock combination event adjustment provisions contained in the Series F Warrants, the exercise
price of the Series F Warrants was reduced to $ 3.3713 per share and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Series F Warrants was adjusted proportionately.
The
Series F Warrants were initially accounted for as liabilities based on the following analysis:
The
Series F Warrants were determined to be within the scope of ASC 480-10 as they are puttable to the Company at the Holders’ election
upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the agreements). As such, the Company recorded the Series F Warrants
as a liability at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company utilized the Black Scholes Model
to calculate the value of these warrants. The fair value of the Series F Warrants of $ 10,623,000 was estimated at the date of issuance
using the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield 0 %; term of 5.0 years; equity volatility of 125.0 %; and a risk-free
interest rate of 4.09 %.
Transaction
costs incurred attributable to the issuance of the Series F Warrants of $ 762,834 were immediately expensed in accordance with ASC 480.
Series
F-1 Warrants
Pursuant
to the Series F-1 Private Placement, the Company issued to investors (i) the Series F-1 Long-Term Warrants to purchase 27,813 shares
of Common Stock, with an initial exercise price of $ 181.60 per share (subject to adjustment), for a period of five years from the date
of issuance and (ii) the Series F-1 Short-Term Warrants to purchase 27,813 shares of Common Stock, with an initial exercise price of
$ 181.60 per share (subject to adjustment), for a period of eighteen months from the date of issuance. The exercise price of the Series
F-1 Warrants and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series F-1 Warrants are subject to customary adjustments for stock
dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment, on a “full ratchet” basis,
in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below
the then-applicable exercise price (subject to certain exceptions). Upon any such price-based adjustment to the exercise price, the number
of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series F-1 Warrants will be increased proportionately.
On
April 17, 2025, in connection with the issuance of stock options to certain officers of the Company and pursuant to the full ratchet
anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series F-1 Warrants, the exercise price of the Series F-1 Warrants was reduced to $ 18.32 per
share and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series F-1 Warrants was adjusted proportionately. In September
2025, in connection with the 2025 Reverse Stock Split and pursuant to the stock combination event adjustment provisions contained in
the Series F-1 Warrants, the exercise price of the Series F-1 Warrants was reduced to $ 3.3713 per share and the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series F-1 Warrants was adjusted proportionately.
35
Pursuant
to the April 2025 Amendment Agreement, the Series F-1 Short-Term Warrants were extended to expire five years from the date of issuance.
The
Series F-1 Preferred Shares were determined to be more akin to a debt-like host than an equity-like host. The Company identified the
following embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument: 1) make-whole interest upon a contingent
redemption event, 2) make-whole interest upon a conversion event, 3) an installment redemption upon an Equity Conditions Failure (as
defined in the Series F-1 Certificate of Designations), and 4) variable share-settled installment conversion. These features were bundled
together, assigned probabilities of being affected and measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value of these features are
recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company estimated at issuance the $ 3,149,800 fair value of the bifurcated
embedded derivative using a Monte Carlo simulation model, with the following inputs: the fair value of the Company’s Common Stock
of $ 190.00 on the issuance date, estimated equity volatility of 120.0 %, estimated traded volume volatility of 190.0 %, the time to maturity
of 1.35 years, a discounted market interest rate of 6.8 %, dividend rate of 10.0 %, a penalty dividend rate of 15.0 %, and probability of
default of 0.5 %. The fair value of the bifurcated derivative liabilities was estimated utilizing the with and without method which uses
the probability weighted difference between the scenarios with the derivative and the plain vanilla maturity scenario without a derivative.
Series
G Warrants
Pursuant
to the Series G Private Placement, the Company issued to investors (i) the Series G Long-Term Warrants to purchase 49,288 shares of Common
Stock, with an initial exercise price of $ 181.60 per share (subject to adjustment), for a period of five years from the date of issuance
and (ii) the Series G Short-Term Warrants to purchase 49,288 shares of Common Stock, with an initial exercise price of $ 181.60 per share
(subject to adjustment), for a period of eighteen months from the date of issuance.
The
exercise price of the Series G Warrants and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series G Warrants are subject to customary
adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment, on a “full
ratchet” basis, in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common
Stock, at a price below the then-applicable exercise price (subject to certain exceptions). Upon any such price-based adjustment to the
exercise price, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series G Warrants will be increased proportionately.
On
April 17, 2025, in connection with the issuance of stock options to certain officers of the Company and pursuant to the full ratchet
anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series G Warrants, the exercise price of the Series G Warrants was reduced to $ 18.32 per share
and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series G Warrants was adjusted proportionately. In September 2025,
in connection with the 2025 Reverse Stock Split and pursuant to the stock combination event adjustment provisions contained in the Series
G Warrants, the exercise price of the Series G Warrants was reduced to $ 3.3713 per share and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the Series G Warrants was adjusted proportionately.
The
Series G Preferred Shares were determined to be more akin to a debt-like host than an equity-like host. The Company identified the following
embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument: 1) make-whole interest upon a contingent redemption
event, 2) make-whole interest upon a conversion event, 3) an installment redemption upon an Equity Conditions Failure (as defined in
the Series G Certificate of Designations), and 4) variable share-settled installment conversion. These features were bundled together,
assigned probabilities of being affected and measured at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value of these features are recognized
in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company estimated at issuance the $ 3,149,800 fair value of the bifurcated embedded
derivative using a Monte Carlo simulation model, with the following inputs: the fair value of the Company’s Common Stock of $ 190.00
on the issuance date, estimated equity volatility of 120.0 %, estimated traded volume volatility of 190.0 %, the time to maturity of 1.35
years, a discounted market interest rate of 6.8 %, dividend rate of 10.0 %, a penalty dividend rate of 15.0 %, and probability of default
of 0.5 %. The fair value of the bifurcated derivative liabilities was estimated utilizing the with and without method which uses the probability
weighted difference between the scenarios with the derivative and the plain vanilla maturity scenario without a derivative.
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no exercises of Series G Short-Term Warrants.
36
Series
H Warrants
Pursuant
to the Series H Private Placement, the Company issued investors the Series H Warrants to purchase 1,400,000 shares of Common Stock, with
an initial exercise price of $ 5.00 per share (subject to adjustment), for a period of five years from the date of the September 2025
Stockholder Approval. The exercise price of the Series H Warrants and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series H Warrants
are subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like, and subject to price-based adjustment,
on a “full ratchet” basis, in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable
for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable exercise price (subject to certain exceptions). Upon any such price-based adjustment
to the exercise price, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series H Warrants will be increased proportionately. In September
2025, in connection with the 2025 Reverse Stock Split and pursuant to the full ratchet anti-dilution provisions contained in the Series
H Warrants, the exercise price of the Series H Warrants was reduced to $ 3.3717 per share and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the Series H Warrants was adjusted proportionately.

Litigation
and Settlements
Raymond
Akers Actions
On
April 14, 2021, Raymond F. Akers, Jr., Ph.D. filed a lawsuit against the Company (f/k/a Akers Biosciences, Inc.) in the Superior Court
of New Jersey, Law Division, Gloucester County (the “First Raymond Akers Action”). Dr. Akers asserts one common law whistleblower
retaliation claim against the Company.
On
September 23, 2021, the Court granted the Company’s Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint and dismissed Plaintiff’s
Amended Complaint. The Court indicated that Dr. Akers is “free to file another complaint, however, tort-based ‘Pierce’
allegations, and/or CEPA claims are barred by the statute of limitations.”
37
On
March 1, 2022, Dr. Akers filed a second action against the Company in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Gloucester County
(the “Second Raymond Akers Action”) again asserting one common law whistleblower retaliation claim against the Company. The
Company believes that the Second Raymond Akers Action was filed against the Court’s specific admonition that Plaintiff does not
attempt to circumvent the statute of limitations.
On
May 27, 2022, the Court granted-in-part and denied-in-part the Company’s Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s Complaint. The Court
reaffirmed the ruling in the First Raymond Akers Action that any tort-based Pierce claims are time-barred. However, the Court denied
the Motion as it pertained to Plaintiff’s contract-based Pierce claim and “Repayment of Monies Owed” claim. On July
29, 2022, the Company filed its Answer, which included affirmative defenses.
On
April 29, 2025, the complaint was confidentially settled between the parties. There was no material impact on the Company’s financial
condition or the results of operations. All legal fees incurred were expensed as and when incurred.

12— Patent Assignment and Royalty Agreement
In
November 2016, the Company entered into an agreement with the holders of certain intellectual property relating to the Company’s
current product candidate. Under the terms of the agreement, the counterparty assigned its rights and interest in certain patents to
the Company in exchange for future royalty payments based on a fixed percentage of future revenues, as defined. The agreement is effective
until the later of (1) the date of expiration of the assigned patents or (2) the date of expiration of the last strategic partnership
or licensing agreement including the assigned patents. No revenue has been received subject to this agreement for the three months ended
June 30, 2026 and 2025.
On
September 2, 2025, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “MIPA”) whereas, the Company agreed
to acquire 100% of the membership interests of LPU Holdings LLC from the Sellers, and entered into certain other related agreements,
including (i) a Support Agreement, (ii) a Registration Rights Agreement, and (iii) a License Agreement, by and between LPU and LightSolver
Ltd. (the “License Agreement”, and, collectively, with the MIPA, the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition closed on
September 4, 2025 (the “Acquisition Closing Date”).
The
Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition pursuant to ASC 805-50 as all of the fair value was concentrated in a single intangible
asset, the Exclusive License.
As
consideration for the Membership Interests, the Company delivered to the Sellers 747,362 shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock,
subject to certain conversion limitations as set forth in the Certificate of Designations of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock
(see Note 8).
39
The
Acquisition price consisted of total upfront consideration comprised of $ 1.75 million in cash and 747,362 shares of the Company’s
Series I Preferred Stock with a fair value of $ 2.70 million. In addition, the Company incurred approximately $ 0.26 million of acquisition
costs, which are capitalized in an asset acquisition and included in the total consideration transferred.
Additionally,
after the closing of the Acquisition, the Company is required to pay additional contingent consideration under both the MIPA and the
License Agreement (the “Contingent Consideration”) upon the achievement of various specified milestones, including completion
of an offering of the Company’s Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents (“Equity Offering”), which Contingent Consideration
including certain specified cash payments, cash payments calculated based on any Equity Offering proceeds, shares of Common Stock that
would result in the Sellers collectively beneficially owning specified percentage of the Company and warrants to purchase Common Stock.
The Contingent Consideration was determined to be comprised of liabilities which meet the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, and
was thus required to be recognized at its fair value at closing, with such fair value included as a component of the cost of the asset
acquisition. The liability will then be remeasured each reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. As of the
Acquisition Closing Date, the Company estimated the fair value of $ 9,380,000 using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow approach.
The
following table presents the total purchase consideration and the allocation of the purchase consideration for the Acquisition as of
September 2, 2025:
Schedule

The
total purchase price was allocated in its entirety to the exclusive license under the License Agreement. The agreement has no specified
term and will only be terminated upon mutual agreement between the Company and LightSolver, material breach of contract by either party,
insolvency of either party, certain other failures to perform under the terms of the agreement, or at the Company’s convenience.
As of the Acquisition date, the Company believes that the probability of termination under any of the above conditions is remote; the
Company intends to hold the Exclusive License into perpetuity thus does not foresee a limit on the asset’s useful life as of the
Acquisition Date. Management thus concludes that the Exclusive License is an indefinite-lived asset and will perform an annual assessment
for impairment and will reassess whether events and circumstances indicate that the life of the asset is no longer indefinite each reporting
period.
On June 26, 2026, the Company provided notice of its intention to terminate the Technology License and Development
Agreement, dated as of September 2, 2025 (the “License Agreement”), by and among LightSolver, LPU Holdings LLC (“LPU”),
a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and, solely with respect to certain provisions of the License Agreement, the Company, effective
as of June 26, 2026. See Note 6 above for further information.

Note
13— Segments
The
Company has two reportable segments. The legacy segment focuses on the previous endeavors of TNF Pharmaceuticals, Inc. This business
segment operates in the clinical-stage pharmaceutical space and is specifically focused on Isomyosamine (formerly MYMD-1). The second
and primary segment is focused on the development and eventual application of quantum computing technology. The Company’s
chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is responsible for evaluating financial performance and allocating resources,
is the Executive Chairman of the Board. The accounting policies of the dual segments are the same as those described in the summary of
significant accounting policies. The CODM does not use assets to assess the segment. The CODM assesses performance for each segment and
decides how to allocate resources based on net operating loss excluding stock-based compensation and warrant issuance expenses. The CODM
uses a non-GAAP measure, net of operating loss excluding stock-based compensation and warrant issuance expenses, as the primary measure
of operating performance and to monitor the Company’s cash burn and adherence to budget.
To
date, the Company has not generated any product revenues and has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception.
The
following table presents certain financial data for the Company’s two reportable segments and a reconciliation to the Company’s
consolidated net loss.

Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The
information set forth below should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto
included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto
included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on April 15, 2026. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates
and projections. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those
indicated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those discussed in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, entitled “Risk Factors.” References in this discussion and analysis to “us,” “we,”
“our,” or “the Company” refer collectively to Q/C Technologies, Inc.
Our
financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments
and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available
to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between
these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP
and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting
any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with
our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”).
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as “anticipates,”
“assumes,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,”
“forecasts,” “guides,” “intends,” “is confident that,” “may,” “plans,”
“seeks,” “projects,” “targets,” “would” and “will” or the negative of such
terms or other variations on such terms or comparable terminology. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, future
financial and operating results, the company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, statements concerning the Company’s
expectations regarding its transition to an energy-efficient blockchain and cryptocurrency infrastructure through quantum-class laser-based
computing focused business and other statements that are not historical facts. We have based these forward-looking statements largely
on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial
condition, and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q and are subject to
a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience
and our present expectations, or projections described under the sections in this Form 10-Q and our other reports filed with the SEC
titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
For
a more detailed discussion of other factors that may affect our business and that could cause our actual results to differ materially
from those projected in these forward-looking statements, see the risk factors and uncertainties set forth in Part II, Item 1A of this
Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2026. Any one or more of these
uncertainties, risks and other influences could materially affect our results of operations and whether forward-looking statements made
by us ultimately prove to be accurate. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether
from new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
Overview
QCLS is engaged in the development
of a proprietary silicon photonic computing architecture for artificial intelligence (“AI”) inference. The Company focuses
its efforts on its optical processing unit initiative (the “OPU Initiative”). The OPU Initiative is focused on developing
next-generation optical computing technologies designed to address the performance, bandwidth, and energy limitations of traditional
electronic computing architectures, including through internally developed intellectual property and strategic collaborations addressing
challenges such as analog precision, nonlinear computation, and memory integration. The Company has assembled a team of experts in AI,
photonics, and advanced computing to support the OPU Initiative and intends to develop proprietary optical chip architectures designed
to address key bottlenecks in bandwidth, energy efficiency, and scalability for AI inference applications, while building a portfolio
of foundational intellectual property through patent filings. In connection with this shift in strategic focus, the Company relocated
its headquarters to San Francisco, California, where it is establishing an integrated photonics laboratory to accelerate research and
development of the OPU Initiative.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company’s cash on hand was $0.3 million and marketable securities were $10.68 million. The Company has incurred
a net loss from operations of $8.65 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had working capital
of $8.18 million and stockholders’ equity of $16.09 million including an accumulated deficit of $152.19 million. During the six
months ended June 30, 2026, cash flows used in operating activities were $5.11 million consisting primarily of a net loss of $7.86
million. Since its inception, the Company has met its liquidity requirements principally through the sale of its Common Stock and Preferred
Stock in public and private placements.
The
Company evaluated the current cash requirements for operations in conjunction with management’s strategic plan and believes that
the Company’s current financial resources as of the date of the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements are
sufficient to fund its current operating budget and contractual obligations as of June 30, 2026 as they fall due within the next twelve-month
period, alleviating any substantial doubt raised by the Company’s historical operating results and satisfying its estimated liquidity
needs for twelve months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Financial
Operations Overview
We
will not generate meaningful revenue from product sales unless and until we successfully complete development, certification, pilot deployment,
and commercialization of our laser-based computing products, including our qc-LPU100. Our ability to generate revenue from our new strategic
focus depends on our capacity to finalize LPU prototypes, validate performance for blockchain, DePin Token, and artificial intelligence
high-performance computing applications, secure applicable regulatory and hardware certifications, and achieve commercial adoption by
early users. The development and commercialization of new photonic hardware systems require substantial time, engineering resources,
and capital, and any delay or failure in these efforts would materially adversely affect our business.
Although
our primary resources are now directed toward laser-based computing, we continue to own our historical Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD therapeutic
platforms. We are evaluating strategic alternatives for these programs, including potential divestiture, partnering or licensing transactions
intended to maximize their residual value.
As
a result of anticipated expenditures in both our new laser-based computing operations and our efforts to preserve and monetize our legacy
pharmaceutical assets, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy.
If we are unable to raise additional capital on acceptable terms or at all, we may be required to delay or reduce planned development
activities, defer commercialization milestones, or modify our strategic objectives.
Components
of our Results of Operations
Revenue
We
have not generated any revenue from product sales and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products or services in
the near future.
Operating
Expenses
Our
operating expenses are broken into several components, including research and development and general and administrative costs.
We
expect operating expenses to increase as we advance development activities for our qc-LPU100.
45
Research
and Development
Our
research and development expenses consist of costs associated with both our laser-based computing business and the maintenance of our
legacy pharmaceutical product candidates, Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD. For our laser-based computing business, these costs include prototype
development expenses for the qc-LPU100, performance benchmarking activities, LightSolver licensing costs, consulting and general development
expenses, and related engineering and technical costs. For our legacy pharmaceutical business, these costs include, but are not limited
to:
●
Contractual
agreements with third parties, including contract research organizations, for the maintenance of legacy pharmaceutical programs;
●
Outside
consultants including fees and expenses;
●
Laboratory
supplies and equipment;
●
Regulatory
compliance; and
●
Patent
application and maintenance costs to protect our intellectual property.
One
of our three employees is involved in the research and development activities for the laser-based computing business. None of our other
two employees are principally involved in the research and development of our legacy pharmaceutical product candidates, Isomyosamine
or Supera-CBD. Their salaries, wages and benefits are captured as a component of research and development but not allocated to specific
projects.
We
utilize third party contractors and consultants with expertise in specific research or development activities to perform work under the
supervision of our researchers. We believe this allows us to control costs and to progress through the development cycle and to utilize
our staff more efficiently.
It
is difficult to project with absolute accuracy the duration or final cost of the development of our laser-based computing products, including
the qc-LPU100, or our legacy pharmaceutical product candidates, Isomyosamine and Supera-CBD, or if revenue will be generated from the
commercialization of any of these products. For our laser-based computing business, costs will depend on the pace of prototype development,
benchmarking results, regulatory certifications, and deployment timelines. For our legacy pharmaceutical business, the process of achieving
regulatory approval is very costly and time consuming.
General
and Administrative
General
and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries, wages and benefits for our employees in the executive, legal and accounting
functions and third-party costs for legal, accounting, insurance, investor relations, stock market and board expenses.
Although
treated as components of general and administrative expenses, we have chosen to disclose the following significant items separately:
Stock
Based Compensation
Stock
based compensation includes the fair market value, as determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, of stock options issued
to key staff and consultants.
Other
Income (Expense), net
Other
income (expense), net consists of interest and dividends earned on our cash, cash equivalents, and investments, gains on the sale marketable
securities, and gains or losses on investments.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Overview
Our
primary source of liquidity to date has been funding from our stockholders through the sale of equity securities and the exercise of
derivative securities, including warrants. We expect our primary sources of future liquidity in the short to mid-term to be derived from
the exercising of outstanding warrants, and future equity or debt financings.
As
of June 30, 2026, the Company’s cash on hand was $307,612 and marketable securities were $10,679,782. The Company has incurred
a net loss attributable to stockholders of $8,067,968 for the six months ended June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had
working capital of $8,175,648 and stockholders’ equity of $16,090,897, including an accumulated deficit of $152,190,703.
Since its inception, the Company has met its liquidity requirements principally through the sale of its Common Stock and preferred stock
in public and private placements.
Based
on our current operating plan, existing cash balances, and expected cash flows, management believes that the Company has sufficient liquidity
to fund its operations for at least the next twelve months. However, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability
to increase revenues, manage operating expenses, and access additional capital as needed. Liquidity constraints and access to capital
markets could negatively affect our liquidity and require changes to our operating or investment strategy.
Our
future capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the timing and extent of market acceptance of our products and
services, investments in product development, sales and marketing activities, working capital requirements, and the timing and amount
of future revenue. We may seek to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings, strategic partnerships, or other arrangements.
There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.
Operating
Activities
During

Pursuant
to the February 2023 Offering, the Company issued to investors the Series F Warrants to purchase 2,218 shares of Common Stock, with an
initial exercise price of $6,765 per share (the “Series F Exercise Price”), subject to adjustment, for a period of five years

a “full ratchet” basis, in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable
for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series F Exercise Price (subject to certain exceptions). Upon any such price-based
adjustment to the exercise price, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series F Warrants will be increased proportionately.

The
Series H Certificate of Designations includes certain Triggering Events (as defined in the Series H Certificate of Designations), including,

any number of shares of Series H Preferred Stock held by such holder into shares of Common Stock at a price equal to the lowest of (A)
the applicable Series H Conversion Price as in effect on the applicable date of conversion, and (B) $0.616, which was 20% of the “Minimum

of Designations, including a limit on the number of shares that may be issued until the time, if any, that our stockholders have approved
the issuance of the Series H Conversion Shares and shares issuable upon exercise of the Series H Investor Warrants (the “Series

MIPA
On
September 2, 2025, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “MIPA”), by and among the Company,
LPU and the members of LPU identified on the signature pages attached thereto (the “Sellers”), pursuant to which the Company
agreed to acquire 100% of the membership interests (the “Membership Interests”) of LPU from the Sellers (the “Acquisition”).
As

Following
the closing of the Acquisition, the Sellers are entitled to additional contingent consideration (the “Contingent Consideration”)
upon the achievement of various specified milestones, including completion of an offering of the Company’s Common Stock or Common
Stock equivalents (an “Equity Offering”), which Contingent Consideration includes certain specified cash payments, cash payments
calculated based on any Equity Offering proceeds, shares of Common Stock that would result in the Sellers collectively beneficially owning

is subject to certain limitations, including a limit on the number of shares that may be issued until the time, if any, that the Company’s
stockholders have approved the issuance in accordance with Nasdaq listing standards (the “MIPA Stockholder Approval”). The

In

License
Agreement
In
connection to the transactions contemplated by the MIPA, prior to entering into the MIPA, on September 2, 2025, LPU and LightSolver Ltd.,
an Israeli company (“LightSolver” or “Licensor”) entered into a license agreement (as may be subsequently amended,
supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified, the “License Agreement”). Pursuant to the License Agreement,
LightSolver granted LPU, among other things, an exclusive license to use and commercialize its proprietary laser processing hardware
units (the “Machines”) specifically configured for cryptocurrency mining applications and its proprietary intangible technology
necessary or useful to utilize the Machines (the “Technology”) solely for cryptocurrency mining applications.
In
addition, pursuant to the License Agreement, LightSolver agreed to perform certain development work to develop, customize, configure,
and enhance its proprietary Machines and Technology for cryptocurrency mining applications, for which LPU will pay LightSolver, upon
the achievement of certain associated developmental milestones by LightSolver, (the “Milestone Events”), a total of up to
$8,500,000 in non-recurring engineering fees. In addition to such non-recurring engineering fees, no later than one (1) business day
after the effective date of the License Agreement, LPU agreed to make a one-time cash payment to LightSolver equal to the greater of
(i) 25% of the aggregate proceeds received by the Company from the Private Placement and (ii) $1,500,000. Furthermore, promptly upon
the occurrence of any of the Milestone Events, LPU agreed to deliver, or cause to be delivered, to LightSolver the consideration described
above.
On June 26, 2026, the Company provided notice of its intention to terminate the License Agreement, effective as of June 26, 2026. In connection
with such termination, LPU was automatically and immediately relieved from its obligation to make any additional Milestone Event payments
or other payments described above, and LightSolver has no right to receive any further contingent consideration under the License Agreement
or the MIPA.

Critical
Accounting Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.
GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination
of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may
be material to the financial statements. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements
include estimates associated with the determinations of the fair-market value of the preferred stock, stock-based compensation, and the
impairment analysis of intangibles.
Our
financial position, results of operations and cash flows are impacted by the accounting policies we have adopted. In order to get a full
understanding of our financial statements, one must have a clear understanding of the accounting policies employed. A summary of our
critical accounting policies is presented within the notes to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q.
Our
management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which
have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, costs and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities in our financial statements. These items are monitored and analyzed by us for changes in facts and circumstances,
and material changes in these estimates could occur in the future. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events,
and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments
about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions
on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Our
critical accounting estimates have not changed materially from those previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2026.

Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
Our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the
end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls
and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and
is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2026 that
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

1. Legal Proceedings
From
