2. Liquidity

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $13,386,332 in cash. Since inception the Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations each fiscal year. The Company has no revenues and expects to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future, and may never become profitable. The Company is dependent on its ability to continue to raise equity and/or debt financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. The Company has a collaboration agreement with Relief which provided for funding by Relief of certain research and development expenses related to the U.S. development of ZYESAMITM and the portion of corporate overhead attributable to that program. The proceeds received amounted to $771,244 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, Relief has declined to reimburse the Company for any additional expenses related to the IV clinical trials for the ZYESAMITM. The IV clinical trials for the ZYESAMITM were completed on February 24, 2021. Subsequent to June 30, 2021, the Company received $9,186,316 from the exercise of a warrant for the purchase of 1,833,596 shares of common stock. Accordingly, the Company believes that it currently has sufficient funds to support operations through the next twelve months from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company cannot make any assurances that additional financings will be available to it and, if available, on acceptable terms or at all. This could negatively impact the Company’s business and operations and could also lead to the reduction of the Company’s operations.

COVID-19 Outbreak

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 Outbreak”) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 Outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally.

The full impact of the COVID-19 Outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. If the COVID-19 Outbreak continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations for the year ending December 31, 2021 and beyond. Management is actively monitoring the impact of the global pandemic on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 Outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 Outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for the year ending December 31, 2021 and beyond.
