Revenues
and Cost of Goods Sold
Revenue
was $27,995 and $19,500 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. All revenue recognized in the year ended December
31, 2023 relate to the procedures performed with respect to the IsoPet ® therapies. All revenue except $4,995 in 2024 relate
to the procedures performed with respect to the IsoPet ® therapies. The $4,995 relates to a new license fee charged by
the Company to clinics for certification to perform these therapies. These revenues are recognized upon the certification being completed.
Management
does not anticipate that the Company will generate sufficient revenue to sustain operations until such time as the Company secures multiple
revenue-generating arrangements with respect to RadioGel™ and/or any of our other brachytherapy technologies.

Operating
expense for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $2,601,400 and $2,787,110, respectively. The decrease in operating expense
from 2023 to 2024 can be attributed to the increase in professional fees ($1,606,923 for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to
$1,682,350 for the year ended December 31, 2024) as the Company utilized more services due to amending the offering statement on Form
1-A (the “ Offering Statement ”) for the Company’s offering being made pursuant to Regulation A+ (the “ Regulation
A+ Offering ”), and the fees incurred for the consultants engaged in 2024, including: stock-based compensation; the increase
in general and administrative expense ($165,773 for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to $241,824 for the year ended December
31, 2024); the decrease in research and development expense ($732,698 for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to $324,629 for the
year ended December 31, 2024) as the Company ramped up the development of their products with the recent raising of capital in 2023;
and, an increase in payroll expense ($281,716 for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to $352,597 for the year ended December 31,
2024) related to our Chief Executive Officer’s employment contract taking effect.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
At
December 31, 2024, the Company had working capital of $2,147,247, compared to working capital of $1,365,120 at December 31, 2023. During
the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company experienced negative cash flows from operations of $1,684,039 and realized $2,304,300 of
cash flows from financing activities. As of December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any commitments for capital expenditures. During
the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company experienced negative cash flows from operations of $1,293,023 and realized $1,179,245 of
cash flows from financing activities. As of December 31, 2023, the Company did not have any commitments for capital expenditures.
Cash
used in operating activities was primarily a result of the Company’s non-cash items, such as loss from operations, loss on
exchange of warrants, loss on conversion of debt and share based compensation. Cash provided from financing activities increased
from $1,179,245 for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $2,304,300 for the year ended December 31, 2024. In 2023, the Company raised
$1,179,245 from sales of common stock. In 2024, the Company raised $2,284,950 from sales of common stock and warrants.
The
Company has generated material operating losses since inception. The Company had a net loss of $2,894,753 for the year ended December
31, 2023, and a net loss of $2,910,448 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company expects to continue to experience net operating
losses for the foreseeable future. Historically, the Company has relied upon investor funds to maintain its operations and develop the
Company’s business. The Company anticipates raising additional capital within the next twelve months for working capital as well
as business expansion, although the Company can provide no assurance that additional capital will be available on terms acceptable to
the Company, if at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing to meet its working capital requirements, it may have
to curtail its business or cease all operations.
The
Company requires funding of at least $3.5 million per year to maintain current operating activities. Over the next 36 months, the Company
believes it will cost approximately $10 million to: (1) fund the FDA approval process to conduct human clinical trials; (2) conduct Phase
I, pilot, and clinical trials; (3) activate several regional clinics to administer IsoPet ® across the county; (4) create
an independent production center within the current production site to create a template for future international manufacturing; and
(5) initiate regulatory approval processes outside of the United States.
25
The
principal variables in the timing and amount of spending for the brachytherapy products in the next 12 to 24 months will be the FDA’s
classification of the Company’s brachytherapy products as Class II or Class III devices (or otherwise) and any requirements for
additional studies, which may possibly include clinical studies. Thereafter, the principal variables in the amount of the Company’s
spending and its financing requirements would be the timing of any approvals and the nature of the Company’s arrangements with
third parties for manufacturing, sales, distribution and licensing of those products and the products’ success in the U.S. and
elsewhere. The Company intends to fund its activities through strategic transactions such as licensing and partnership agreements or
additional capital raises.
Recent
geopolitical events, including the inherent instability and volatility in global capital markets, as well as the lack of liquidity in
the capital markets, could also impact the Company’s ability to obtain financing and its ability to execute its business plan.
Our
Chief Executive Officer currently works from his home office in virtual communication with key personnel. Cadwell Laboratories, which
is controlled by Carl Cadwell, a director of the Company, provides office space to management on an as-needed basis until such time as
the Company leases permanent office space.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
The
Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s
financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates the Company
considers include criteria for stock-based compensation expense, and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Revenue
Recognition
In
May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“ FASB ”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ ASU ”)
No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition
to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its
core principle of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects
the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated
guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method.
Under
the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ ASC ”) Topic 606, to recognize revenue, the Company is required
to identify an approved contract with commitments to preform respective obligations, identify rights of each party in the transaction
regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has commercial substance
and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable.
The
Company recognized revenue as they (i) identified the contracts with each customer; (ii) identified the performance obligation in each
contract; (iii) determined the transaction price in each contract; (iv) were able to allocate the transaction price to the performance
obligations in the contract; and (v) recognized revenue upon the satisfaction of the performance obligation. Upon the sales of the product
to complete the procedures on the animals, the Company recognized revenue as that was considered the performance obligation.
The
Company in 2024 also implemented a license program for clinics that pay for certification to perform these therapies. These revenues
are recognized upon the certification being completed. During the year ended December 31, 2024, $4,995 of the revenue relates to this
certification.

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company adopted ASC Topic 820 (“Fair Value Measurements”) as of January 1, 2008 for financial instruments measured as fair
value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs
used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
-
Level
1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
-
Level
2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted
prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active;
and
-
Level
3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions,
such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company recognizes compensation costs under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, and ASU No. 2018-07 –
Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Companies are required
to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs
in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements
include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans.
As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over
the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
