Net Loss Per Share

Net Loss Per Share – Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Although there were warrants and stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, no potential common shares are included in the computation of any diluted per share amount, as they would be antidilutive. Consequently, diluted net loss per share as presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements is equal to basic net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The calculation of diluted earnings per share for 2023 did not include 878,408 shares and 1,200,531 shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of outstanding common stock options and warrants, respectively, as of June 30, 2023 as the effect would be antidilutive. The calculation of diluted earnings per share for 2022

did not include 657,408 shares and 400,531 shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of outstanding common stock options and warrants, respectively, as of June 30, 2022 as the effect would be antidilutive.

Liquidity

Liquidity - The Company’s available cash and cash equivalents of $3.4 million at June 30, 2023 will not be sufficient to fund liquidity and capital expenditure requirements for the next 12 months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Therefore, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company expects to continue to incur significant operating expenses for the foreseeable future in connection with its ongoing activities, including conducting clinical trials, manufacturing development and seeking regulatory approval of its drug candidates, prexigebersen, BP1002, BP1003 and BP1001-A. Accordingly, the Company will continue to require substantial additional capital to fund its projected operating requirements. Such additional capital may not be available when needed or on terms favorable to the Company. In addition, the Company may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations, even if it believes it has sufficient funds for its current and future operating plan. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to raise additional capital through the sale of securities in the future. If the Company is not able to secure adequate additional funding, the Company may be forced to make reductions in spending, extend payment terms with suppliers and/or suspend or curtail planned programs. Any of these actions could materially harm the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects.

Fair Value

Fair Value - The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
