NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Nature of Operations – IASO BioMed, Inc. (“IASO” or the “Company”) is a developmental stage biotechnology company focusing on researching and developing drugs and diagnostic tests for products with a large commercial market potential as well as drugs that may qualify for orphan drug status. The Company is primarily developing a peptide as a testosterone replacement therapy by stimulating the body’s own production of testosterone rather than using synthetic steroid hormones. The Company believes this peptide may be a safer alternative – to be proven after clinical studies - to currently available interventions for restoring testosterone levels in males. A second program of the Company is a test for dementia we believe will be the basis for developing an early stage blood or fluid test for Alzheimer’s disease and other similar conditions; the dementia test remains an asset of the Company which the Company will be seeking to out-license to a 3rd party for further development and commercialization. There is no assurance that these research and development activities will result in products that can be sold. The Company was incorporated as a C-corporation in the state of Colorado on March 11, 2015. It has its primary place of business in Denver, Colorado.
Basis of Presentation - The interim unaudited financial statements presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as of and for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The December 31, 2018 Balance Sheet included herein was derived from the audited year-end financial statements of the Company. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, notes and accounting policies thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary to provide a fair presentation of operating results for the interim periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.
Reclassification – Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of the Company’s financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates include but are not limited to the valuation of share-based awards.
Research and Development Costs – Research and development costs are charged to operations in the period incurred. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $35,000 and $95,000 in research and development costs, respectively.
Share-based Compensation – Share-based payments are measured at their estimated fair value on the date of grant. Share-based awards to non-employees are re-measured at fair value each financial reporting date until performance is completed. Share-based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. For warrants that do not vest immediately but which contain only a service vesting feature, we recognize compensation cost on the unvested warrants on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting period.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of warrants and the market price of our common stock, or comparable public companies if our stock is not trading, on the date of grant for the fair value. Our determination of fair value of share-based awards is affected by those stock prices as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk-free interest rate.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Income Taxes – The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts payable are considered to approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Earning (Loss) Per Share – Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding, plus the impact of common shares, if dilutive, resulting from the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, plus the conversion of convertible notes, if any. There were 11,420,000 and 11,135,000, respectively, shares excluded as they were anti-dilutive at September 30, 2019 and 2018.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements– In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for those leases classified as operating leases at the commencement date and have lease terms of more than 12 months. This topic retains the distinction between finance leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years, and must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Although the Company currently has no lease obligations, it will adopt the new requirements if it enters into a lease obligation.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which clarifies when to account for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. It is effective prospectively for the annual period ending September 30, 2019 and interim periods within that annual period. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect ASU 2017-09 will have a significant impact on its financial statements upon adoption.
2. Going Concern:
At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had cash of $3,394 and $140,234, respectively. It also had a working capital deficit of $1,116,439 and $602,519, respectively and an accumulated deficit of $3,757,319 and $3,041,165, respectively. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is taking action to ensure the Company will continue as a going concern for at least one year beyond the date of the issuance of the Company’s financial statements. From March 11, 2015 (Inception) through September 30, 2019, the Company sold $971,842 in common stock. Common stock sales continue pursuant to private placement and other potential equity offerings. In September 2019 we engaged Weild & Co of New York, NY to conduct a private placement of our common stock at a price of $0.38 per share on a best efforts basis for up to $6,000,000. As of the date of this report, we have not sold any shares under this ongoing offering. These fundraising efforts may not be successful. While there can be no assurances, management believes that these actions will enable the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

5. Commitments and Contingencies:
Royalties – In January 2016, the Company signed a license agreement with The Royal Institution for the Advancement of Learning/McGill University in Canada on the Company’s potential products. This agreement requires, for each of the Company’s potential products, a 3% payment of annual net revenues, with a minimum royalty of CAD $5,000 each, per year starting on the date of commercialization of the first product developed using the intellectual property covered by the license agreement. The Company must pay milestone payments for the androgen replacement treatment as follows:
● | CAD $5,000 on the issuance of the first US patent that accrued US$3,750 in the first quarter of 2019 | |
● | CAD $25,000 on the filing of an investigational new drug application or regulatory filing | |
● | CAD $50,000 on the initiation of the first Phase II clinical study | |
● | CAD $100,000 on the initiation of the first Phase III clinical study | |
● | CAD $300,000 on receipt of regulatory approval |
The Company must also pay milestone payments as follows for the out of body test to identify Alzheimer’s disease as follows:
● | CAD $5,000 on the issuance of the first US patent | |
● | CAD $50,000 on the filing of a 510(k) or PMA application | |

In addition, the Company issued 5% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares in the Company’s Series A financing to the same institution, or 1,652,632 shares in March 2016. This agreement, payable in Canadian dollars, exposes the Company to foreign exchange transaction gains and losses. In August 2016, the Company issued an additional 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to McGill in lieu of the pre-existing anti-dilution provision. As McGill owns more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, it is considered a related party.

Research Agreement– In January 2016 the Company signed a Research Agreement with The Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (RIMUHC) in Canada for research activities on the Company’s potential products. The agreement covers a period of one year and required the Company to pay a total of $130,000. The Agreement was amended in March 2017 to extend the term for one year and required the payment of an additional $130,000 over that period. The Company paid these installment payments in July and October 2017 leaving no balance due. The Company agreed in June 2018 to an additional payment of $65,000 to continue research and development activities at RIMUHC and signed an extension of the agreement in January 2019 requiring an additional payment of $35,000, which was paid in April 2019.
Scientific Advisory Board – In September 2018 we executed agreements with four new members of our Scientific Advisory Board (“SAB”) through which each new member received a warrant to purchase up to 35,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share for a period of one year. In addition, each new SAB member will be paid an annual fee of $25,000, paid quarterly, commencing with the first scheduled SAB meeting that occurred November 2018. These agreements may be renewed annually, under the same terms and conditions, should each member’s appointment to the SAB be continued. In March 2019, 35,000 of these warrants were exercised by a member of our SAB. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, we incurred $75,000 in expense related to these agreements.
Consulting Agreement – In September 2019 we executed a consulting agreement through which an independent third party received a warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company, exercisable at $0.01 per share for a period of up to ten years.

The term of the Agreement is for a period of twelve months and may be terminated by either party with thirty days written notice. The consultant is also eligible to receive “piggyback” registration rights should the Corporation file a future registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
6. Share-based Compensation
In March 2017, the Company issued 750,000 warrants to the Company’s officers to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.40 per share. Estimated fair values of warrants granted were determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following average assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate | 1.55 | % | ||
Expected term | 3 years | |||
Volatility | 154 | % | ||
Dividend yield | - | |||
Fair value | $ | 0.33 |
Expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The Company’s historical stock warrant exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. As such, the simplified method was used to calculate the expected term.
The Company calculated volatility based on the volatilities of comparable public companies.
Total share-based compensation related to these warrants was $20,502 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2018.
In February and March 2018, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 860,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share to business, legal and scientific consultants; 400,000 of which were to expire in December 2022 and 460,000 of which expire in February 2021. Estimated fair values of warrants granted were determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following average assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate | 2.33 – 2.34 | % | ||
Expected term | 2.5 years | |||
Volatility | 182 – 217 | % | ||
Dividend yield | - | |||

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Overview
IASO BioMed, Inc. (IASO or the “Company”) is a developmental stage biotechnology company focusing on researching and developing drugs and diagnostic tests for products with a large commercial market potential as well and/or and drugs that may qualify for orphan drug status. The Company primarily is developing a drug that it believes will be a safer alternative to currently available testosterone replacement therapy by stimulating the body’s own testosterone production rather than using synthetic hormones and steroids; and secondarily developing an out of body test to identify Alzheimer’s disease. IASO is also developing a process, or method, which the Company believes will be the basis for developing an early stage blood or fluid test for Alzheimer’s disease. The Company was incorporated as a C-corporation in the state of Colorado on March 11, 2015. It has its primary place of business in Denver, Colorado.
JOBS Act –We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the recently-enacted JOBS Act, and we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting and disclosure requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain reporting and disclosure requirements, which may make our future public filings different than that of other public companies.
Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain new accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the JOBS Act, that allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which we had total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement, (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt or (iv) the date on which we are deemed a “large accelerated filer” as defined under the federal securities laws.
We have not generated any revenue to date, and we do not currently have a product ready for sale.
At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had cash of $3,394 and $140,234, respectively. It also had a working capital deficit of $1,116,439 and $602,519, respectively and an accumulated deficit of $3,757,319 and $3,041,165, respectively. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is taking action to ensure the Company will continue as a going concern for at least one year beyond the date of the issuance of the Company’s financial statements. From March 11, 2015 (Inception) through September 30, 2019, the Company sold $971,842 in common stock. Common stock sales continue pursuant to private placement and other potential equity offerings. In September 2019 we engaged Weild & Co of New York, NY to conduct a private placement of our common stock at a price of $0.38 per share on a best-efforts basis for up to $6,000,000. As of the date of this report, we have not sold any shares under this ongoing offering. These fundraising efforts may not be successful. While there can be no assurances, management believes that these actions will enable the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
If we are unable to obtain additional financing on a timely basis, we may have to curtail our development, and business activities, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and ultimately we could be forced to discontinue our operations and liquidate. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.

Revenues
The Company was incorporated on March 11, 2015 and has no revenues to-date and has no products ready for sale.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional legal and accounting fees related to the preparation and filing of the Company’s Form 10-Qs and Form 10-K, and compensation. Total general and administrative expenses decreased by $170,746 the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine-months ended September 30, 2018. The primary reason for the decrease is the recording of share-based compensation of $199,723 in 2019 compared to $412,304 expense in 2018. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase as we expand our staff, develop our infrastructure and incur additional costs to support the execution of our business plan, however, issuances of stock compensation may not occur on a regular basis and may therefore result in significant swings in general and administrative expense from quarter-to-quarter.
The Company incurred $18,312 and $10,804, respectively, in intellectual property expenses for the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 that are included as general and administrative expenses. In addition, we accrued $3,750 in license fees in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 for payments under our License Agreement with McGill University with no similar fees in the 2018 period.
Research and development
Research and development costs are charged to operations in the period incurred. For nine-months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, total research and development expenses were $35,000 and $95,000, respectively. We are currently working to move our primary research and development activities to the laboratories of our founder and board member, Dr. Papadopoulos, and expect our R&D expense will significantly increase in 2020; pending adequate funding of our current business plan.
Interest expense
For each of the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company accrued interest expense of $2,775 and $2,693, respectively, for notes payable related party totaling $69,000 and $60,000, respectively, during those periods and of which $69,000 and $60,000 was outstanding at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We measure our liquidity in a number of ways, including the following:
September 30, 2019 | December 31, 2018 | |||||||
Cash | $ | 3,394 | $ | 140,234 | ||||
Working Capital Deficit | $ | (1,116,439 | ) | $ | (602,519 | ) |
Since our inception, we have not generated any revenues and have funded our operations through the sale of our equity securities and through notes payable from the Company’s CEO. The implementation of our business plan, as discussed in “Business,” will require the receipt of sufficient grant, equity and/or debt financing to purchase necessary technology and materials, fund our research and development efforts, and otherwise fund our operations. We are currently seeking funding of up to $6,000,000 to fund our operations for a period of 18 to 24 months, approximately $1,000,000 of which should fund our operations until at least June 30, 2020.
For the nine-months ended September 30, | ||||||||
2019 | 2018 | |||||||
Cash (used in) provided by: | ||||||||
Operating activities | $ | (148,351 | ) | $ | (254,249 | ) | ||
Financing activities | $ | 11,511 | $ | 411,750 |
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
For the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we experienced negative cash flows from operating activities of $148,351 and $254,249, respectively. This is due primarily to a net loss of $716,154 and $949,818, respectively. The loss for the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 is reduced primarily by share-based compensation of $199,723 accrued Scientific Advisory Board fees of $45,000, accrued salaries of $168,750 and accounts payable of $153,119. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2018 the loss is reduced primarily by share-based compensation of $412,304, accrued salaries of $158,750 and Scientific Advisory Board fees of $125,000. We anticipate that we will continue to use cash in operating activities for the foreseeable future.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 totaled $11,511 and $411,750, respectively, as a result of loans from an officer and warrants exercised in 2019; and common stock sales totaling $407,500 and warrant exercises in 2018. We continue to seek additional funding through private placement offerings including an ongoing offering recently established for potential gross proceeds of up to $6,000,000.
For the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 the Company issued 1,296,112 shares through the exercise of warrants for proceeds of $2,511. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2018, the Company issued 1,275,000 shares of common stock for total proceeds of $407,500 through placements of common stock as well as issued 425,000 common shares through warrant exercises for proceeds totaling $4,250.

Revenues
The Company was incorporated on March 11, 2015 and has no revenues to-date and has no products ready for sale.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional legal and accounting fees related to the preparation and filing of the Company’s Form 10-Qs and Form 10-K, and compensation. Total general and administrative expenses increased by $170,598 for the three-months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three-months ended September 30, 2018. The primary reason for the increase is stock-based compensation expense of $199,723 in 2019 versus $54,876 in 2018; that was partially offset in higher Scientific Advisory Board fees totaling $40,000 in the 2019 period versus $15,000 in the 2018 period. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase as we expand our staff, develop our infrastructure and incur additional costs to support the execution of our business plan, however, issuances of stock compensation may not occur on a regular basis and may therefore result in significant swings in general and administrative expense from quarter-to-quarter.
The Company incurred $8,393 and $8,548, respectively, in intellectual property expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 that are included as general and administrative expenses. In addition, we accrued $3,750 in license fees in the three-month period ended September 30, 2019 for payments under our License Agreement with McGill University with no similar fees in the 2018 period.
Research and development
Research and development costs are charged to operations in the period incurred. For three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, total research and development expenses were $0 and $10,000, respectively. We are currently working to move our primary research and development activities to the laboratories of our founder and board member, Dr. Papadopoulos, and expect our R&D expense will significantly increase in 2020; pending adequate funding of our current business plan.
Interest expense
For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company accrued interest expense of $989 and $907, respectively, for notes payable related party totaling $69,000 and $60,000, respectively, during those periods. A total of $69,000 and $60,000 was outstanding on these loans at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties other than as described following under “Contractual Obligations.” We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as stockholders’ equity or that are not reflected in our financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our management including our CEO and CFO, who act as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed 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 that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of September 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date because due to the small size and limited financial resources, our chief financial officer, corporate secretary and chief executive officer are the only individuals involved in the accounting and financial reporting. As a result, the Company lacks sufficient accounting personnel to ensure the accurate and timely filing of its periodic reports. This limited segregation of duties represents a material weakness.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
None.
You should consider carefully the factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which could materially affect our business.
