CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INDUSTRY DATA
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements may be identified by such forward-looking terminology as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Our forward-looking statements are based on a series of expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our company, are not guarantees of future results or performance and involve substantial risks and uncertainty. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements. Our business and our forward-looking statements involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties inherent in our statements regarding:
● | we have generated no significant revenue from commercial sales to date and our future profitability is uncertain; |
● | if we fail to obtain the capital necessary to fund our operations, we will be unable to continue or complete our product development, execute on our strategic M&A initiatives, commence our planned clinical trials and you will likely lose your entire investment; |
● | our financial situation creates doubt whether we will continue as a going concern; |
● | we may need to raise additional funding, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all; |
● | even if we can raise additional funding, we may be required to do so on terms that are dilutive to you; |
● | the regulatory approval process is expensive, time-consuming and uncertain and may prevent us from obtaining approvals for the commercialization of our future product candidates, if any; |
● | we may encounter substantial delays in completing our clinical studies which in turn will require additional costs, or we may fail to demonstrate adequate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of applicable regulatory authorities; |
● | if our future pre-clinical development and future clinical Phase I/II studies are unsuccessful, we may be unable to obtain regulatory approval of, or commercialize, our product candidates on a timely basis or at all; |
● | even if we receive regulatory approval for any of our product candidates, we may not be able to successfully commercialize the product and the revenue that we generate from their sales, if any, may be limited; |
● | adverse events involving our products may lead the FDA or applicable foreign regulatory agency to delay or deny clearance for our products or result in product recalls that could harm our reputation, business and financial results; |
● | our technology is subject to licenses from LLU and Stanford (as defined below), each of which are revocable in certain circumstances, including in the event we do not achieve certain payments and milestone deadlines. Without these licenses, we may not be able to continue to develop our product candidates; |
● | if we were to lose our CLIA certification or state laboratory licenses, whether as a result of a revocation, suspension or limitation, we would no longer be able to offer our assays (including our AditxtScore™ platform), which would limit our revenues and harm our business. If we were to lose, or fail to obtain, a license in any other state where we are required to hold a license, we would not be able to test specimens from those states; |
● | our results of operations will be affected by the level of royalty and milestone payments that we are required to pay to third parties; |
ii
● | we face substantial competition, which may result in others discovering, developing or commercializing products before or more successfully than we do; |
● | our technologies and products under development, and our business, may fail if we are not able to successfully commercialize them and ultimately generate significant revenues as a result; |
● | customers may not adopt our products quickly, or at all; |
● | COVID-19 may impact our business and operations; |
● | the failure to obtain or maintain patents, licensing agreements and other intellectual property could materially impact our ability to compete effectively; |
● | some of our intellectual property may be subject to “march-in” rights by the U.S. federal government; |
● | we do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future; |
● | we have issued a significant number of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, options and warrants and may continue to do so in the future. The vesting and, if applicable, exercise of these securities and the sale of the shares of common stock issuable thereunder may dilute your percentage ownership interest and may also result in downward pressure on the price of our common stock; |
● | future sales or issuances of substantial amounts of our common stock, including, potentially as a result of future acquisitions or strategic transactions, could result in significant dilution; |
● | while we have entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Cellvera Global, we cannot assure you that the transaction contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement will be consummated or, that if such transaction is consummated, that it will be accretive to stockholder value; |
● | we have provided loans to Cellvera Global in the principal amount of $14.5 million, if we are unable to complete the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to timely collect such amounts from Cellvera Global, if at all; |
● | we may engage in future acquisitions or strategic transactions, including the transaction with Cellvera Global, which may require us to seek additional financing or financial commitments, increase our expenses and/or present significant distractions to our management; |
● | exclusive forum provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws. |
All of our forward-looking statements are as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q only. In each case, actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking information. We can give no assurance that such expectations or forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. An occurrence of, or any material adverse change in, one or more of the risk factors or risks and uncertainties referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or included in our other public disclosures or our other periodic reports or other documents or filings filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. Except as required by law, we do not undertake or plan to update or revise any such forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in plans, assumptions, estimates or projections or other circumstances affecting such forward-looking statements occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, even if such results, changes, or circumstances make it clear that any forward-looking information will not be realized. Any public statements or disclosures by us following this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that modify or impact any of the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be deemed to modify or supersede such statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may include market data and certain industry data and forecasts, which we may obtain from internal company surveys, market research, consultant surveys, publicly available information, reports of governmental agencies and industry publications, articles, and surveys. Industry surveys, publications, consultant surveys, and forecasts generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but the accuracy and completeness of such information is not guaranteed. While we believe that such studies and publications are reliable, we have not independently verified market and industry data from third-party sources.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Company Background
Overview
We are a biotech innovation company with a mission of prolonging life and enhancing its quality by improving the health of the immune system. We are an innovation company developing and commercializing technologies with a focus on monitoring and modulating the immune system. Our immune reprogramming technologies are currently at the pre-clinical stage and are designed to retrain the immune system to induce tolerance with an objective of addressing rejection of transplanted organs, autoimmune diseases, and allergies. Our immune monitoring technologies are designed to provide a personalized comprehensive profile of the immune system and we plan to utilize them in our upcoming reprogramming clinical trials to monitor subjects’ immune response before, during and after drug administration.

Risks and Uncertainties
The Company has a limited operating history and is in the very early stages of generating revenue from intended operations. The Company’s business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide along with local, state, and federal governmental policy decisions. A host of factors beyond the Company’s control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include: changes in the biotechnology regulatory environment, technological advances that render our technologies obsolete, availability of resources for clinical trials, acceptance of technologies into the medical community, and competition from larger, more well-funded companies. These adverse conditions could affect the Company’s financial condition and the results of its operations.
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 novel coronavirus outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus included restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. The COVID-19 coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the financial impact will be to the Company, it is reasonably possible that future capital raising efforts and additional development of our technologies may be negatively affected.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN ANALYSIS
Management Plans
The
Company was incorporated on September 28, 2017 and has not generated significant revenues to date. During the six months ended June 30,
2023, the Company had a net loss of $
As
of June 30, 2023, the Company had zero availability to sell under its shelf registration statement on Form S-3. Upon the filing of the
Company’s annual report on Form 10-K on April 17, 2023, the Company’s aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting
equity held by non-affiliates was below $
On
May 23, 2023, we received written notice from Nasdaq that, based upon the stockholders equity reported by the Company in its Form
10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023, and as of March 31, 2023, the Company was no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule
5550(b)(1), which requires a company to maintain a minimum of $
If we are delisted from Nasdaq, but obtain a substitute listing for our common stock, it will likely be on a market with less liquidity, and therefore experience potentially more price volatility than experienced on Nasdaq. Stockholders may not be able to sell their shares of common stock on any such substitute market in the quantities, at the times, or at the prices that could potentially be available on a more liquid trading market. As a result of these factors, if our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq, the value and liquidity of our common stock, warrants and pre-funded warrants would likely be significantly adversely affected. A delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq could also adversely affect our ability to obtain financing for our operations and/or result in a loss of confidence by investors, employees and/or business partners.
In addition, factors such as stock price, volatility, trading volume, market conditions, demand and regulatory requirements may adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise capital in an efficient manner. Because of these factors, the Company believes that this creates substantial doubt with the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In addition to the shelf registration, the Company has the ability to raise capital from equity or debt through private placements or public offerings pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1. We may also secure loans from related parties.
8
The financial statements included in this report do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the matters discussed herein. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability to complete clinical studies and implement the business plan, generate sufficient revenues and to control operating expenses. In addition, the Company is consistently focused on raising capital, strategic acquisitions and alliances, and other initiatives to strengthen the Company.
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. Although management believes that the disclosures in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in condensed consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes related thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2023 or for any future interim periods.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aditxt, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates underlying the financial statements include the collectability of notes receivable, collectability and reserve on accounts receivable, the reserve on insurance billing, and the fair value of stock options and warrants.
Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 - | Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date. |
Level 2 - | Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data. |
9
Level 3 - | Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information. |
The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820.
Due to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the balance sheet dates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
The Company maintains its cash accounts at financial institutions which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At times, the Company may have deposits in excess of federally insured limits.
Substantially all the Company’s accounts receivable are with companies in the healthcare industry, individuals, and the U.S. government. However, concentration of credit risk is mitigated due to the Company’s number of customers. In addition, for receivables due from U.S. government agencies, the Company does not believe the receivables represent a credit risk as these are related to healthcare programs funded by the U.S. government and payment is primarily dependent upon submitting the appropriate documentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments.
Inventory
Inventory consists of laboratory materials and supplies used in laboratory analysis. We capitalize inventory when purchased. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. We periodically perform obsolescence assessments and write off any inventory that is no longer usable.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes expenditures for furniture, office equipment, laboratory equipment, and other assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. The costs of fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease life of the related assets.
Computers | |
Lab Equipment | |
Office Furniture | |
Other fixed assets | |
Leasehold Improvements |
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets that have finite lives, the assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, the assets are tested periodically for impairment.
10
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts
receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral
to support customer receivables. The Company determines if receivables are past due based on days outstanding, and amounts are written
off when determined to be uncollectible by management. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was an allowance for doubtful
accounts of
Offering Costs
Offering costs incurred in connection with equity are recorded as a reduction of equity and offering costs incurred in connection with debt are recorded as a reduction of debt as a debt discount.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC 606 (Revenue From Contracts with Customers), revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:
1) | Identify the contract with a customer |
2) | Identify the performance obligations in the contract |
3) | Determine the transaction price |
4) | Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract |
5) | Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation |
Revenues reported from services relating to the AditxtScore™ are recognized when the AditxtScoreTM report is delivered to the customer. The services performed include the analysis of specimens received in the Company’s CLIA laboratory and the generation of results which are then delivered upon completion.
The Company recognizes revenue in the following manner for the following types of customers:
Client Payers:
Client payers include physicians or other entities for which services are billed based on negotiated fee schedules. The Company principally estimates the allowance for credit losses for client payers based on historical collection experience and the period of time the receivable has been outstanding.
Cash Pay:
Customers are billed based on established patient fee schedules or fees negotiated with physicians on behalf of their patients. Collection of billings is subject to credit risk and the ability of the patients to pay.
Insurance:
Reimbursements from healthcare insurers are based on fee for service schedules. Net revenues recognized consist of amounts billed net of contractual allowances for differences between amounts billed and the estimated consideration the Company expects to receive from such payers, collection experience, and the terms of the Company’s contractual arrangements.
11
Leases
Under Topic 842 (Leases), operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. The Company has operating leases consisting of office space, laboratory space, and lab equipment.
Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We combine the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and right of use (“ROU”) assets.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation costs under the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense related to the fair value of stock-based compensation awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense recognized includes the compensation cost for all stock-based payments granted to employees, officers, and directors based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. ASC 718 is also applied to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled during the periods reported. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite vesting period and over the nonemployee’s period of providing goods or services.
Patents
The
Company incurs fees from patent licenses, which is reflected in research and development expenses, and are expensed as incurred. During
the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred patent licensing fees for the patents of $
Research and Development
We
incur research and development costs during the process of researching and developing our technologies and future offerings. We expense
these costs as incurred unless such costs qualify for capitalization under applicable guidance. During the six months ended June 30,

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share
Basic
loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each
period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable of common stockholders by the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of shares issuable through the common stock equivalents. The weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of June 30,
2023,

NOTE 8 – LEASES
Our lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate; therefore, an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments. We used the incremental borrowing rate on June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 for all leases that commenced prior to that date. In determining this rate, which is used to determine the present value of future lease payments, we estimate the rate of interest we would pay on a collateralized basis, with similar payment terms as the lease and in a similar economic environment.

Warrants
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 there were no new warrants granted that required a Black Scholes valuation, therefore no fair value was assigned.
The risk-free interest rate assumption for warrants granted is based upon observed interest rates on the United States Government Bond Equivalent Yield appropriate for the expected term of warrants.
The Company determined the expected volatility assumption for warrants granted using the historical volatility of comparable public companies’ common stock. The Company will continue to monitor peer companies and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future warrant grants, until such time that the Company’s common stock has enough market history to use historical volatility.
The dividend yield assumption for warrants granted is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared nor paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
The Company recognizes warrant forfeitures as they occur as there is insufficient historical data to accurately determine future forfeitures rates.

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES
The Company has incurred losses since inception. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not provide any provision for income taxes as the Company incurred losses during such period. The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company has considered both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets using a “more likely than not” standard. In making such assessment, more weight was given to evidence that could be objectively verified, including recent cumulative losses. Based on the Company’s review of this evidence, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance for its net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2023.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors. We discuss factors that we believe could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including those factors set forth in the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Industry Data” and in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A.
Overview and Mission
We believe the world needs—and deserves—a new approach to innovating that harnesses the power of large groups of stakeholders who work together to ensure that the most promising innovations make it into the hands of people who need them most.
We were incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 28, 2017, and our headquarters arein Richmond, Virginia. The company was founded with a mission of bringing stakeholders together, to transform promising innovations into products and services that could address some of the most challenging needs. The socialization of innovation through engaging stakeholders in every aspect of it, is key to transforming more innovations, more rapidly, and more efficiently.
At inception, the first innovation we took on was an immune modulation technology titled ADI/Adimune with a focus on prolonging life and enhancing life quality of patients that have undergone organ transplants. Since then, we expanded our portfolio of innovations, and we continue to evaluate a variety of promising health innovations.
ADIMUNE, INC.
Formed in January 2023, Adimune™, Inc. (“Adimune”) is focused on leading our immune modulation therapeutic programs. Adimune’s proprietary immune modulation product Apoptotic DNA Immunotherapy™, or ADI-100™, utilizes a novel approach that mimics the way our bodies naturally induce tolerance to our own tissues. It includes two DNA molecules designed to deliver signals to induce tolerance. ADI-100 has been successfully tested in several preclinical models (e.g., skin grafting, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis).
In May 2023, Adimune entered into a clinical trial agreement with Mayo Clinic to advance clinical studies targeting autoimmune diseases of the central nervous system (“CNS”) with the initial focus on the rare, but debilitating, autoimmune disease Stiff Person Syndrome (“SPS”). According to the National Organization of Rare Diseases, the exact incidence and prevalence of SPS is unknown; however, one estimate places the incidence at approximately one in one million individuals in the general population.
Pending approval by the International Review Board, a human trial for SPS is expected get underway in the second half of 2023 or the first half of 2024 with enrollment of 10-15 patients, some of whom may also have type 1 diabetes. ADI-100 will initially be tested for safety and efficacy. ADI-100 is designed to tolerize against an antigen known as glutamic acid decarboxylase (“GAD”), which is implicated in type-1 diabetes, psoriasis, and in many autoimmune diseases of the CNS.
Background
The discovery of immunosuppressive (anti-rejection and monoclonal) drugs over 40 years ago has made possible life-saving organ transplantation procedures and blocking of unwanted immune responses in autoimmune diseases. However, immune suppression leads to significant undesirable side effects, such as increased susceptibility to life-threatening infections and cancers, because it indiscriminately and broadly suppresses immune function throughout the body. While the use of these drugs has been justifiable because they prevent or delay organ rejection, their use for treatment of autoimmune diseases and allergies may not be acceptable because of the aforementioned side effects. Furthermore, often transplanted organs ultimately fail despite the use of immune suppression, and about 40% of transplanted organs survive no more than five years.
26
Through Aditxt, Adimune has the right of use to the exclusive worldwide license for commercializing ADI nucleic acid-based technology (which is currently at the pre-clinical stage) from Loma Linda University. ADI uses a novel approach that mimics the way the body naturally induces tolerance to our own tissues (“therapeutically induced immune tolerance”). While immune suppression requires continuous administration to prevent rejection of a transplanted organ, induction of tolerance has the potential to retrain the immune system to accept the organ for longer periods of time. ADI may allow patients to live with transplanted organs with significantly reduced immune suppression. ADI is a technology platform which we believe can be engineered to address a wide variety of indications.

ADI™ is a nucleic acid-based technology (e.g., DNA-based), which we believe selectively suppresses only those immune cells involved in attacking or rejecting self and transplanted tissues and organs. It does so by tapping into the body’s natural process of cell turnover (i.e., apoptosis) to retrain the immune system to stop unwanted attacks on self or transplanted tissues. Apoptosis is a natural process used by the body to clear dying cells and to allow recognition and tolerance to self-tissues. ADI triggers this process by enabling the cells of the immune system to recognize the targeted tissues as “self.” Conceptually, it is designed to retrain the immune system to accept the tissues, similar to how natural apoptosis reminds our immune system to be tolerant to our own “self” tissues.
While various groups have promoted tolerance through cell therapies and ex vivo manipulation of patient cells (i.e., takes place outside the body), to our knowledge, we will be unique in our approach of using in-body induction of apoptosis to promote tolerance to specific tissues. In addition, ADI treatment itself will not require additional hospitalization but only an injection of minute amounts of the therapeutic drug into the skin.
Moreover, preclinical studies have demonstrated that ADI treatment significantly and substantially prolongs graft survival, in addition to successfully “reversing” other established immune-mediated inflammatory processes.
License Agreement with Loma Linda University (“LLU”)
On March 15, 2018, we entered into a License Agreement with LLU, which was subsequently amended on July 1, 2020. Pursuant to the LLU License Agreement, we obtained the exclusive royalty-bearing worldwide license to all intellectual property, including patents, technical information, trade secrets, proprietary rights, technology, know-how, data, formulas, drawings, and specifications, owned or controlled by LLU and/or any of its affiliates (the “LLU Patent and Technology Rights”) and related to therapy for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (the ADi™ technology). In consideration for the LLU License Agreement, we issued 25,000 shares of common stock to LLU.
PEARSANTA, INC.
Formed in January 2023, our subsidiary Pearsanta™, Inc. (“Pearsanta”) seeks to take personalized medicine to a whole new level by delivering “Health by the Numbers.” Since its founding, Pearsanta has been building the platform for enabling our vision of lab quality testing, anytime, anywhere. Our plan for Pearsanta’s platform is for it to be the transactional backbone for sample collection, sample processing (on- and off-site), and reporting. This will require the development and convergence of multiple components developed by Pearsanta, or through transactions with third parties, including collection devices, “lab-on-a-chip” technologies, Lab Developed Test (LDT) assays, a data-driven analysis engine, and telemedicine. According to a comprehensive research report by Market Research Future, the clinical and consumer diagnostic market is estimated to hit $429.3 billion by 2030.
27
We believe that timely and personalized testing enables far more informed treatment decisions. Pearsanta’s platform is being developed as a seamless digital healthcare solution. This platform will integrate at-location sample collection, Point-of-Care (“POC”) and LDT assays, and an analytical reporting engine, with telemedicine-enabled visits with licensed physicians to review test results and, if necessary, order a prescription. Pearsanta’s goal of extending its platform to enable consumers to monitor their health more proactively as the goal is to provide a more complete picture about someone’s dynamic health status, factoring in genetic makeup and their response to medication. The POC component of Pearsanta would enable diagnostic testing at-home, at work, in pharmacies, and more to generate results quickly so that an individual can access necessary treatment faster. With certain infections, prescribing the most effective treatment according to one’s numbers can prevent hospital emergency room admissions and potentially life-threatening consequences.
Examples of indication-focused tests for the Test2Treat platform will include the evaluation for advanced urinary tract infections (“UTIs”), COVID-19/flu/respiratory syncytial virus, sexually transmitted infections, gut health, pharmacogenomics (i.e., how your genes affect the way your body responds to certain therapeutics), and sepsis. We believe that these offerings are novel and needed as the current standard of care using broad spectrum antibiotic treatment can be ineffective and potentially life-threatening. For example, improperly prescribed antibiotics may approach 50% of outpatient cases. Further, according to an article published in Physician’s Weekly, only 1% of board-certified critical care medicine physicians are trained in infectious disease.
Licensed Technologies – AditxtScoreTM
We intend to sublicense to Pearsanta an exclusive worldwide sub-license for commercializing the AditxtScore™ technology which provides a personalized comprehensive profile of the immune system. AditxtScore is intended to detect individual immune responses to viruses, bacteria, peptides, drugs, supplements, bone marrow and solid organ transplants, and cancer. It has broad applicability to many other agents of clinical interest impacting the immune system, including those not yet identified such as emerging infectious agents.
AditxtScore is being designed to enable individuals and their healthcare providers to understand, manage and monitor their immune profiles and to stay informed about attacks on or by their immune system. We believe AditxtScore can also assist the medical community and individuals by being able to anticipate the immune system’s potential response to viruses, bacteria, allergens, and foreign tissues such as transplanted organs. This technology may be able to serve as a warning signal, thereby allowing for more time to respond appropriately. Its advantages include the ability to provide simple, rapid, accurate, high throughput assays that can be multiplexed to determine the immune status with respect to several factors simultaneously, in approximately 3-16 hours. In addition, it can determine and differentiate between distinct types of cellular and humoral immune responses (e.g., T and B cells and other cell types). It also provides for simultaneous monitoring of cell activation and levels of cytokine release (i.e., cytokine storms).
We are actively involved in the regulatory approval process for AditxtScore assays for clinical use and securing manufacturing, marketing, and distribution partnerships for application in the various markets. To obtain regulatory approval to use AditxtScore as a clinical assay, we have conducted validation studies to evaluate its performance in detection of antibodies and plan to continue conducting additional validation studies for new applications in autoimmune diseases.
Advantages
The sophistication of the AditxtScore technology includes the following:
● | greater sensitivity/specificity. |
● | 20-fold higher dynamic range, greatly reducing signal to noise compared to conventional assays. |
● | ability to customize assays and multiplex a large number of analytes with speed and efficiency. |
● | ability to test for cellular immune responses (i.e., T and B cells and cytokines). |
● | proprietary reporting algorithm. |

License Agreement with Leland Stanford Junior University (“Stanford”)
On February 3, 2020, we entered into an exclusive license agreement (the “February 2020 License Agreement”) with Stanford with regard to a patent concerning a method for detection and measurement of specific cellular responses. Pursuant to the February 2020 License Agreement, we received an exclusive worldwide license to Stanford’s patent with regard to use, import, offer, and sale of Licensed Products (as defined in the agreement). The license to the patented technology is exclusive, including the right to sublicense, beginning on the effective date of the agreement, and ending when the patent expires. Under the exclusivity agreement, we acknowledged that Stanford had already granted a non-exclusive license in the Nonexclusive Field of Use, under the Licensed Patents in the Licensed Field of Use in the Licensed Territory (as those terms are defined in the “February 2020 License Agreement”). However, Stanford agreed not to grant further licenses under the Licensed Patents in the Licensed Field of Use in the Licensed Territory. On December 29, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the February 2020 License Agreement which extended our exclusive right to license the technology deployed in AditxtScoreTM and securing worldwide exclusivity in all fields of use of the licensed technology.

Our commitment to building our antiviral portfolio is strategic and timely. We believe that there has never has there been a more important time to address the growing global need to uncover new treatments or commercialize existing ones that treat life-threatening global viral infections.
Our Team
Aditxt has assembled an entrepreneurial team of experts from a variety of different business, engineering, and scientific fields, and commercial backgrounds, with collective experience that ranges from founding startup innovation companies, to developing and marketing biopharmaceutical and diagnostic products, to designing clinical trials, and management of private and public companies. We have deep experience in identifying and accessing promising health innovations and developing them into products and services with the ability to scale. We understand the capital markets, both public and private, as well as M&A and facilitating complex IPOs.
Going Concern
We were incorporated on September 28, 2017 and have not generated significant revenues to date. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 we had a net loss of $11,666,724 and cash of $95,953 as of June 30, 2023. The Company will require significant additional capital to operate in the normal course of business and fund clinical studies in the long-term. As a result of the September 2022 Offering and the April 2023 Offering, we received net proceeds of approximately $19,000,000 during the last twelve months. We believe that the remaining funds on hand will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next 12 months and such creates substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern beyond one year.
Financial Results
We have a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historical financial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. Our condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023, show a net loss of $11,666,724. We expect to incur additional net expenses over the next several years as we continue to maintain and expand our existing operations. The amount of future losses and when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain.

During the quarter, the Company transitioned from purchasing certain inventory items to internally manufacturing these items.
The decrease in expenses during the nine months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was due to decreased research and development spend and the termination of a sales and marketing vendor.
31
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have incurred substantial operating losses since inception and expect to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As of June 30, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $106,707,086. We had working capital of $(7,596,215) as of June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we purchased $5,051 in fixed assets, for which we made cash payments of $5,051. Of the $5,051, $3,000 of these purchased fixed assets were lab equipment and $2,051 was for computers.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern.
We have funded our operations from proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities. On July 2, 2020, we completed our IPO and raised approximately $9.5 million in net proceeds. At the time of the IPO, we believed that these funds would be sufficient to fund our operations for the foreseeable future.
On September 10, 2020, we completed a follow-on public offering. In connection therewith, we issued 48,000 units, or Follow-On Units, excluding the underwriters’ option to cover overallotments, at an offering price of $200.00 per Follow-On Unit, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $9.6 million.
On January 25, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with an institutional accredited investor (the “Investor”) for the sale of a $6,000,000 senior secured convertible note (the “Convertible Note”). The Convertible Note had a term of 24 months, was originally convertible at a price of $200.00 per share and was issued at an original issuance discount of $1,000,000. On August 30, 2021, the Company entered into a defeasance and waiver agreement with the Investor, pursuant to which the Noteholder has agreed in exchange for (a) a cash payment by the Company to the Investor of $1.2 million (the Cash Payment”), (b) a waiver, in part of the conversion price adjustment provision such that the January 2021 Note shall be convertible into 96,050 shares of common stock (without giving effect to the conversion notice received by the company form the Noteholder prior to the date hereof totaling (20,115 shares) (the “Shares”), and (c) a voluntary and permanent reduction by the Company of the exercise price of the warrant to purchase 16,000 shares of the common stock of the Company (the “January 2021 Warrant”) to $126.50 per share. As of December 31, 2022, the outstanding principle of the convertible note had been converted to 96,050 shares of common stock.
On August 30, 2021, we completed a registered direct offering and raised approximately $10.1 million in net proceeds.
On October 20, 2021, we completed a public offering for net proceeds of $3.8 million. As part of this offering, we issued 56,667 shares of the Company’s common stock
On December 6, 2021, we completed a public offering for net proceeds of $16.0 million. As part of this offering, we issued 164,929 units consisting of shares of the Company’s common stock and warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock and 166,572 prefunded warrants. The warrant issued as part of the units had an exercise price of $57.50 and the prefunded warrants had an exercise price of $0.001.
On September 20, 2022, we completed a public offering for net proceeds of $18.1 million (the “September 2022 Offering”). As part of the September 2022 Offering, we issued 1,224,333 of shares of the Company’s common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase 2,109,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase 3,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock. The warrants had an exercise price of $6.00 and the pre-funded warrants had an exercise price of $0.001.
On April 20, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to such investor pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,585,350 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at a purchase price of $1.219 per Pre-Funded Warrant. Concurrently with the sale of the Pre-Funded Warrants, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in a concurrent private placement, for each Pre-Funded Warrant purchased by the investor, such investor received from the Company an unregistered warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase two shares of Common Stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.86 per share, and are exercisable for a three year period. In addition, the Company issued a warrant to the placement agent to purchase up to 95,121 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.525 per share.
32
We will need to raise significant additional capital to continue to fund our operations and the clinical trials for our product candidates. We may seek to sell common stock, preferred stock or convertible debt securities, enter into a credit facility or another form of third-party funding or seek other debt financing. In addition, we may seek to raise cash through collaborative agreements or from government grants. The sale of equity and convertible debt securities may result in dilution to our stockholders and certain of those securities may have rights senior to those of our common shares. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of preferred stock, convertible debt securities, or other debt financing, these securities or other debt could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. Any other third-party funding arrangement could require us to relinquish valuable rights.
The source, timing, and availability of any future financing will depend principally upon market conditions, and, more specifically, on the progress of our clinical development program. Funding may not be available when needed, at all, or on terms acceptable to us. Lack of necessary funds may require us to, among other things, delay, scale back or eliminate expenses including some or all our planned development, including our clinical trials. While we may need to raise funds in the future, we believe the current cash reserves should be sufficient to fund our operation for the foreseeable future. Because of these factors, we believe that this creates doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Polices and Estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. We believe that our critical accounting policies described under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Plan of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” in our Prospectus, dated September 1, 2020, filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b), are critical to fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. The following involve the most judgment and complexity:
● | Research and development |
● | Stock-based compensation expense |
● | Fair value of common stock |
Accordingly, we believe the policies set forth above are critical to fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. If actual results or events differ materially from the estimates, judgments and assumptions used by us in applying these policies, our reported financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.
33
JOBS Act
On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was enacted. 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 accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.
When favorable, we have chosen to take advantage of the extended transition periods available to emerging growth companies under the JOBS Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies provided under the JOBS Act.
We are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on other exemptions and reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, as an “emerging growth company,” we intend to rely on certain of these exemptions, including without limitation, (i) providing an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and (ii) complying with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements, known as the auditor discussion and analysis. We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.07 billion or more; (ii) the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the completion of our IPO (December 31, 2025); (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC.

34
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be impacted by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including those set forth below and in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other filings with the SEC, the occurrence of any one of which could have a material adverse effect on our actual results.
Our financial situation creates doubt whether we will continue as a going concern.
The Company was incorporated on September 28, 2017 and through the date of this report has generated no significant revenues. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a net loss of $27,649,876 and $46,371,364, respectively. Our condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023, show a net loss of $11,666,724. Our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $96,000 as of June 30, 2023. There can be no assurances that we will be able to achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or additional financing through private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing necessary to support our working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient, we will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on acceptable terms. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If adequate working capital is not available, we may be forced to discontinue operations, which would cause investors to lose their entire investment.
If we fail to obtain the capital necessary to fund our operations, we will be unable to continue or complete our product development and you will likely lose your entire investment.
We will need to continue to seek capital from time to time to continue development of our lead drug candidate beyond our initial combined Phase I/IIa clinical trial and to acquire and develop other product candidates. Once approved for commercialization, we cannot provide any assurances that any revenues it may generate in the future will be sufficient to fund our ongoing operations.
Our business or operations may change in a manner that would consume available funds more rapidly than anticipated and substantial additional funding may be required to maintain operations, fund expansion, develop new or enhance products, acquire complementary products, business or technologies, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures and opportunities, such as a change in the regulatory environment or a change in preferred treatment modalities. In addition, we may need to accelerate the growth of our sales capabilities and distribution beyond what is currently envisioned, and this would require additional capital. However, we may not be able to secure funding when we need it or on favorable terms. We may not be able to raise sufficient funds to commercialize the product candidates we intend to develop.
If we cannot raise adequate funds to satisfy our capital requirements, we will have to delay, scale back or eliminate our research and development activities, clinical studies, or future operations. We may also be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborators, which arrangements may require us to relinquish rights to certain technologies or products that we otherwise would not consider relinquishing, including rights to future product candidates or certain major geographic markets. This could result in sharing revenues which we might otherwise retain for ourselves. Any of these actions may harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The amount of capital we may need depends on many factors, including the progress, timing and scope of our product development programs; the progress, timing and scope of our preclinical studies and clinical trials; the time and cost necessary to obtain regulatory approvals; the time and cost necessary to further develop manufacturing processes and arrange for contract manufacturing; our ability to enter into and maintain collaborative, licensing and other commercial relationships; and our partners’ commitment of time and resources to the development and commercialization of our products.

Our obligations to certain of our creditors are secured by security interests in our assets, so if we default on those obligations, our creditors could foreclose on some or all of our assets.
Our obligations to certain of our creditors are secured by security interests in our assets. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $3.6 million was owed to such secured creditors. Under such agreements, we are required to pay $182,357 on a weekly basis to such creditors. If we default on our obligations under these agreements, our secured creditors could foreclose on its security interests and liquidate some or all of these assets, which would harm our financial condition and results of operations and would require us to reduce or cease operations and possibly seek Bankruptcy Protection.
In the event we pursue Bankruptcy Protection, we will be subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with such proceedings.
In the event we file for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code, our operations, our ability to develop and execute our business plan and our continuation as a going concern will be subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with bankruptcy proceedings, including, among others: our ability to execute, confirm and consummate a plan of reorganization; the additional, significant costs of bankruptcy proceedings and related fees; our ability to obtain sufficient financing to allow us to emerge from bankruptcy and execute our business plan post-emergence, and our ability to comply with terms and conditions of that financing; our ability to continue our operations in the ordinary course; our ability to maintain our relationships with our consumers, business partners, counterparties, employees and other third parties; our ability to obtain, maintain or renew contracts that are critical to our operations on reasonably acceptable terms and conditions; our ability to attract, motivate and retain key employees; the ability of third parties to use certain limited safe harbor provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code to terminate contracts without first seeking Bankruptcy Court approval; the ability of third parties to force us to into Chapter 7 proceedings rather than Chapter 11 proceedings and the actions and decisions of our stakeholders and other third parties who have interests in our bankruptcy proceedings that may be inconsistent with our operational and strategic plans. Any delays in our bankruptcy proceedings would increase the risks of our being unable to reorganize our business and emerge from bankruptcy proceedings and may increase our costs associated with the bankruptcy process or result in prolonged operational disruption for us. Also, we would need the prior approval of the bankruptcy court for transactions outside the ordinary course of business during the course of any bankruptcy proceedings, which may limit our ability to respond timely to certain events or take advantage of certain opportunities. Because of the risks and uncertainties associated with any bankruptcy proceedings, we cannot accurately predict or quantify the ultimate impact of events that could occur during any such proceedings. There can be no guarantees that if we seek Bankruptcy Protection we will emerge from Bankruptcy Protection as a going concern or that holders of our common stock will receive any recovery from any bankruptcy proceedings.
In the event we are unable to pursue Bankruptcy Protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or, if pursued, successfully emerge from such proceedings, it may be necessary to pursue Bankruptcy Protection under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code for all or a part of our businesses.
In the event we are unable to pursue Bankruptcy Protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or, if pursued, successfully emerge from such proceedings, it may be necessary for us to pursue Bankruptcy Protection under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code for all or a part of our businesses. In such event, a Chapter 7 trustee would be appointed or elected to liquidate our assets for distribution in accordance with the priorities established by the United States Bankruptcy Code. We believe that liquidation under Chapter 7 would result in significantly smaller distributions being made to our stakeholders than those we might obtain under Chapter 11 primarily because of the likelihood that the assets would have to be sold or otherwise disposed of in a distressed fashion over a short period of time rather than in a controlled manner and as a going concern.

We received a written notice from Nasdaq that we have failed to comply with certain listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market, which could result in our Common Stock being delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market.
On May 23, 2023, we received written notice from Nasdaq that, based upon the stockholders equity reported by the Company in its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023, and as of March 31, 2023, the Company was no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires a company to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity, a market value of listed securities of at least $35 million, or net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the three most recently completed fiscal years (the “Continued Listing Requirements”). The May notification letter further provided that the Company has 45 calendar days, or until July 7, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance and if the plan is accepted by Nasdaq, an extension of up to 180 calendar days, or until November 19, 2023 to evidence compliance. On June 22, 2023, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it has failed to maintain compliance with the minimum bid price rule in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”) as the closing price of Company’s common stock has remained below $1.00 for over 30 consecutive trading days. On June 29, 2023, we submitted an appeal to Nasdaq, which stays the delisting and suspension of our securities pending the decision of the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). At the hearing, which will be held on August 31, 2023, we intend to present its views and its plans to regain compliance with the Equity and Minimum Bid Price Rules to the Panel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to evidence compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule prior to the hearing. It is our understanding that the Panel typically issues its decision within 30 days after the hearing.
If we are delisted from Nasdaq, but obtain a substitute listing for our common stock, it will likely be on a market with less liquidity, and therefore experience potentially more price volatility than experienced on Nasdaq. Stockholders may not be able to sell their shares of common stock on any such substitute market in the quantities, at the times, or at the prices that could potentially be available on a more liquid trading market. As a result of these factors, if our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq, the value and liquidity of our common stock, warrants and pre-funded warrants would likely be significantly adversely affected. A delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq could also adversely affect our ability to obtain financing for our operations and/or result in a loss of confidence by investors, employees and/or business partners.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
(a) | Sales of Unregistered Securities |
On March 17, 2023, the Company issued a consultant 187,000 shares of common stock for services rendered.
The issuances above were made pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.
(b) | Use of Proceeds from Initial Public Offering |
On July 2, 2020, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”). In connection therewith, the Company issued 24,534 Units (the “Units”), excluding the underwriters’ option to cover overallotments (the underwriter did not exercise their overallotment), at an offering price of $450.00 per Unit, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $11.0 million. The Units issued in the IPO consisted of one share of common stock, one Series A warrant, and one Series B warrant. The Series A warrants originally had an exercise price of $450.00 and a term of 5 years. In addition, the Company issued a Unit Purchase Option at an exercise price of $562.50 per unit to the underwriters to purchase up to 1,350 units, with each unit consisting of (i) one share of common stock and (ii) one Series A Warrant. On August 19, 2020, the Company modified the exercise price of the Series A Warrants from $450.00 per share to $225.00 per share. The term of the Series A Warrants was not modified. The Series B warrants have an exercise price of $562.50 per share, a term of 5 years and contain a cashless exercise option upon certain criteria being met. As of June 30, 2023, substantially all of the Series B warrants issued in the IPO have been exercised pursuant to a cashless provision therein.
37
We received net proceeds of $8.5 million in the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and issuance expenses borne by us. No payments were made by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our common stock or to their associates, or to our affiliates, other than payments in the ordinary course of business to officers for salaries and to non-employee directors pursuant to our director compensation policy. Dawson James Securities, Inc. acted as lead book-running manager of the offering and as representative of the underwriters for the offering.
There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from our IPO from that described in the final prospectus related to the offering, dated June 29, 2020 as filed with the SEC.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
As previously reported, on July 27, 2023, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release (the “Separation Agreement”) with its former Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Secretary, Matthew Shatzkes. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Shatzkes within seven days after the Termination Date: (i) $122,292, representing all accrued salary and wages (inclusive of Base Compensation and earned Subsequent Quarterly Bonus amounts, as those terms are defined in Mr. Shatzkes employment agreement), and (ii) $32,576, representing Mr. Shatzkes accrued, but unused paid time off (collectively, the “Initial Payment”). On August 11, 2023 the Company paid $50,000 of the Initial Payment and is currently in negotiations with Mr. Shatzkes to determine timing of the payment of the remaining balance of the Initial Payment.

Company Background
Overview
We are a biotech innovation company with a mission of prolonging life and enhancing its quality by improving the health of the immune system. We are an innovation company developing and commercializing technologies with a focus on monitoring and modulating the immune system. Our immune reprogramming technologies are currently at the pre-clinical stage and are designed to retrain the immune system to induce tolerance with an objective of addressing rejection of transplanted organs, autoimmune diseases, and allergies. Our immune monitoring technologies are designed to provide a personalized comprehensive profile of the immune system and we plan to utilize them in our upcoming reprogramming clinical trials to monitor subjects’ immune response before, during and after drug administration.
On January 1, 2023, the Company formed Adimune, Inc., a Delaware wholly owned subsidiary.
On January 1, 2023, the Company formed Pearsanta, Inc., a Delaware wholly owned subsidiary.
On April 13, 2023, the Company formed Adivir, Inc., a Delaware wholly owned subsidiary.
Reverse Stock Split
On September 13, 2022, the Company effectuated a 1 for 50 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”). The Company’s stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis effective on the Nasdaq Stock Market on September 14, 2022. There was no change to the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock. All shares amounts referenced in this report are adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split.
Offerings
On August 31, 2021, the Company completed a registered direct offering (“August 2021 Offering”). In connection therewith, the Company issued 91,667 shares of common stock, at a purchase price of $120.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $11.0 million. In a concurrent private placement, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 91,667 shares. The warrants have an exercise price of $126.50 per share and are exercisable for a five-year period commencing six months from the date of issuance. The warrants exercise price was subsequently repriced to $75.00. In addition, the Company issued a warrant to the placement agent to purchase up to 4,584 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $150.00 per share.
On October 18, 2021, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Revere Securities LLC, relating to the public offering (the “October 2021 Offering”) of 56,667 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”) by the Company. The Shares were offered, issued, and sold at a price to the public of $75.00 per share under a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement filed with the SEC on Form S-3 (File No. 333-257645), which was declared effective by the SEC on July 13, 2021. The October 2021 Offering closed on October 20, 2021 for gross proceeds of $4.25 million. The Company utilized a portion of the proceeds, net of underwriting discounts of approximately $3.91 million from the October 2021 Offering to fund certain obligations of the Company.
On December 6, 2021, the Company completed a public offering for net proceeds of $16.0 million (the “December 2021 Offering”). As part of the December 2021 Offering, we issued 164,929 units consisting of shares of the Company’s common stock and warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock and 166,572 prefunded warrants. The warrant issued as part of the units had an exercise price of $57.50 and the prefunded warrants had an exercise price of $0.001. On June 15, 2022, the Company entered an agreement with a holder of certain warrants in the December 2021 Offering. (See Note 10)
On September 20, 2022, the Company completed a public offering for net proceeds of $17.2 million (the “September 2022 Offering”). As part of the September 2022 Offering, we issued 1,224,333 of shares of the Company’s common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase 2,109,000 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase 3,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock. The warrants had an exercise price of $6.00 and the pre-funded warrants had an exercise price of $0.001.
On April 20, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “April Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to such investor pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,585,350 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at a purchase price of $1.219 per Pre-Funded Warrant. The Pre-Funded Warrants (and shares of common stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants) were offered by the Company pursuant to its shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-257645), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 13, 2021. Concurrently with the sale of the Pre-Funded Warrants, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in a concurrent private placement, for each Pre-Funded Warrant purchased by the investor, such investor received from the Company an unregistered warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase two shares of Common Stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.86 per share, and are exercisable for a three year period. In addition, the Company issued a warrant to the placement agent to purchase up to 95,121 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.525 per share. The closing of the sales of these securities under the Purchase Agreement took place on April 24, 2023. The gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $1.9 million, prior to deducting placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company has a limited operating history and is in the very early stages of generating revenue from intended operations. The Company’s business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide along with local, state, and federal governmental policy decisions. A host of factors beyond the Company’s control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include: changes in the biotechnology regulatory environment, technological advances that render our technologies obsolete, availability of resources for clinical trials, acceptance of technologies into the medical community, and competition from larger, more well-funded companies. These adverse conditions could affect the Company’s financial condition and the results of its operations.
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 novel coronavirus outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus included restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. The COVID-19 coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the financial impact will be to the Company, it is reasonably possible that future capital raising efforts and additional development of our technologies may be negatively affected. |

GOING CONCERN ANALYSIS | NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN ANALYSIS
Management Plans
The Company was incorporated on September 28, 2017 and has not generated significant revenues to date. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had a net loss of $11,666,724 and negative cash flow from operating activities of $7,233,619. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s cash balance was $95,953.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had zero availability to sell under its shelf registration statement on Form S-3. Upon the filing of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K on April 17, 2023, the Company’s aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting equity held by non-affiliates was below $75.0 million. As a result, the maximum amount that the Company can sell under its shelf registration statement on Form S-3 during any 12 month period is equal to one-third of the aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting equity held by non-affiliates of the Company.
On May 23, 2023, we received written notice from Nasdaq that, based upon the stockholders equity reported by the Company in its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023, and as of March 31, 2023, the Company was no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires a company to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity, a market value of listed securities of at least $35 million, or net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the three most recently completed fiscal years (the “Continued Listing Requirements”). The May notification letter further provided that the Company has 45 calendar days, or until July 7, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance and if the plan is accepted by Nasdaq, an extension of up to 180 calendar days, or until November 19, 2023 to evidence compliance. On June 22, 2023, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it has failed to maintain compliance with the minimum bid price rule in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”) as the closing price of Company’s common stock has remained below $1.00 for over 30 consecutive trading days. On June 29, 2023, we submitted an appeal to Nasdaq, which stays the delisting and suspension of our securities pending the decision of the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). At the hearing, which will be held on August 31, 2023, we intend to present its views and its plans to regain compliance with the Equity and Minimum Bid Price Rules to the Panel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to evidence compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule prior to the hearing. It is our understanding that the Panel typically issues its decision within 30 days after the hearing.
If we are delisted from Nasdaq, but obtain a substitute listing for our common stock, it will likely be on a market with less liquidity, and therefore experience potentially more price volatility than experienced on Nasdaq. Stockholders may not be able to sell their shares of common stock on any such substitute market in the quantities, at the times, or at the prices that could potentially be available on a more liquid trading market. As a result of these factors, if our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq, the value and liquidity of our common stock, warrants and pre-funded warrants would likely be significantly adversely affected. A delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq could also adversely affect our ability to obtain financing for our operations and/or result in a loss of confidence by investors, employees and/or business partners.
In addition, factors such as stock price, volatility, trading volume, market conditions, demand and regulatory requirements may adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise capital in an efficient manner. Because of these factors, the Company believes that this creates substantial doubt with the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In addition to the shelf registration, the Company has the ability to raise capital from equity or debt through private placements or public offerings pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1. We may also secure loans from related parties.
The financial statements included in this report do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the matters discussed herein. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability to complete clinical studies and implement the business plan, generate sufficient revenues and to control operating expenses. In addition, the Company is consistently focused on raising capital, strategic acquisitions and alliances, and other initiatives to strengthen the Company. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. Although management believes that the disclosures in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in condensed consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes related thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2023 or for any future interim periods.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aditxt, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates underlying the financial statements include the collectability of notes receivable, collectability and reserve on accounts receivable, the reserve on insurance billing, and the fair value of stock options and warrants.
Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820.
Due to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the balance sheet dates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
The Company maintains its cash accounts at financial institutions which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At times, the Company may have deposits in excess of federally insured limits.
Substantially all the Company’s accounts receivable are with companies in the healthcare industry, individuals, and the U.S. government. However, concentration of credit risk is mitigated due to the Company’s number of customers. In addition, for receivables due from U.S. government agencies, the Company does not believe the receivables represent a credit risk as these are related to healthcare programs funded by the U.S. government and payment is primarily dependent upon submitting the appropriate documentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments.
Inventory
Inventory consists of laboratory materials and supplies used in laboratory analysis. We capitalize inventory when purchased. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. We periodically perform obsolescence assessments and write off any inventory that is no longer usable.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes expenditures for furniture, office equipment, laboratory equipment, and other assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. The costs of fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease life of the related assets.
Useful lives assigned to fixed assets are as follows:
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets that have finite lives, the assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, the assets are tested periodically for impairment.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral to support customer receivables. The Company determines if receivables are past due based on days outstanding, and amounts are written off when determined to be uncollectible by management. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was an allowance for doubtful accounts of zero and $18,634, respectively.
Offering Costs
Offering costs incurred in connection with equity are recorded as a reduction of equity and offering costs incurred in connection with debt are recorded as a reduction of debt as a debt discount.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC 606 (Revenue From Contracts with Customers), revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:
Revenues reported from services relating to the AditxtScore™ are recognized when the AditxtScoreTM report is delivered to the customer. The services performed include the analysis of specimens received in the Company’s CLIA laboratory and the generation of results which are then delivered upon completion.
The Company recognizes revenue in the following manner for the following types of customers:
Client Payers:
Client payers include physicians or other entities for which services are billed based on negotiated fee schedules. The Company principally estimates the allowance for credit losses for client payers based on historical collection experience and the period of time the receivable has been outstanding.
Cash Pay:
Customers are billed based on established patient fee schedules or fees negotiated with physicians on behalf of their patients. Collection of billings is subject to credit risk and the ability of the patients to pay.
Insurance:
Reimbursements from healthcare insurers are based on fee for service schedules. Net revenues recognized consist of amounts billed net of contractual allowances for differences between amounts billed and the estimated consideration the Company expects to receive from such payers, collection experience, and the terms of the Company’s contractual arrangements.
Leases
Under Topic 842 (Leases), operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. The Company has operating leases consisting of office space, laboratory space, and lab equipment.
Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We combine the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and right of use (“ROU”) assets.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation costs under the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense related to the fair value of stock-based compensation awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense recognized includes the compensation cost for all stock-based payments granted to employees, officers, and directors based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. ASC 718 is also applied to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled during the periods reported. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite vesting period and over the nonemployee’s period of providing goods or services.
Patents
The Company incurs fees from patent licenses, which is reflected in research and development expenses, and are expensed as incurred. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred patent licensing fees for the patents of $74,525 and $248,813, respectively.
Research and Development
We incur research and development costs during the process of researching and developing our technologies and future offerings. We expense these costs as incurred unless such costs qualify for capitalization under applicable guidance. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred research and development costs of $1,872,376 and $2,616,302, respectively.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable of common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of shares issuable through the common stock equivalents. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2023, 44,712 stock options, 2,603 unvested restricted stock units, and 7,903,748 warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share as their effects were anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2022, 2,235,466 stock options, 865,900 unvested restricted stock units, and 45,963,691 warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share as their effects were anti-dilutive.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements. |

LEASES | NOTE 8 – LEASES
Our lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate; therefore, an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments. We used the incremental borrowing rate on June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 for all leases that commenced prior to that date. In determining this rate, which is used to determine the present value of future lease payments, we estimate the rate of interest we would pay on a collateralized basis, with similar payment terms as the lease and in a similar economic environment.
Our corporate headquarters is located in Richmond, Virginia, where we lease approximately 25,000 square feet. The lease expires in August 2026, subject to extension.
We also lease approximately 5,810 square feet of laboratory and office space in Mountain View, California. The lease expires in August 2024, subject to extension.
Additionally, we lease approximately 3,150 square feet of office space in Melville, New York. The lease expires in December 2024, subject to extension.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company is in arrears on certain lease payments in the aggregate amount of approximately $281,000.

License Agreement with Loma Linda University
On March 8, 2018, we entered into an Assignment Agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) with Sekris Biomedical, Inc. (“Sekris”). Sekris was a party to a License Agreement with Loma Linda University (“LLU”), entered into and made effective on May 25, 2011, and amended on June 24, 2011, July 16, 2012 and December 27, 2012 (the “Original Agreement,” and together with the Assignment Agreement, the “Sekris Agreements”). Pursuant to the Assignment Agreement, Sekris transferred and assigned all of its rights and obligations in and to liabilities under the Original Agreement, of whatever kind or nature, to us. In exchange, on March 8, 2018, we issued a warrant to Sekris to purchase up to 10,000 shares of our common stock (the “Sekris Warrant”). The warrant was immediately exercisable and had an exercise price of $200.00 per share. The expiration date of the warrant was March 8, 2023. On March 15, 2018, as amended on July 1, 2020, we entered into a LLU License Agreement directly with Loma Linda University, which amends and restates the Sekris Agreements.
Pursuant to the LLU License Agreement, we obtained the exclusive royalty-bearing worldwide license in and to all intellectual property, including patents, technical information, trade secrets, proprietary rights, technology, know-how, data, formulas, drawings, and specifications, owned or controlled by LLU and/or any of its affiliates (the “LLU Patent and Technology Rights”) and related to therapy for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (the ADI™ technology). In consideration for the LLU License Agreement, we issued 500 shares of common stock to LLU.
Pursuant to the LLU License Agreement, we are required to pay an annual license fee to LLU. Also, we paid LLU $455,000 in July 2020 for outstanding milestone payments and license fees. We are also required to pay to LLU milestone payments in connection with certain development milestones. Specifically, we are required to make the following milestone payments: $175,000 on March 31, 2022; $100,000 on March 31, 2024; $500,000 on March 31, 2026; and $500,000 on March 31, 2027. Additionally, as consideration for prior expenses incurred by LLU to prosecute, maintain and defend the LLU Patent and Technology Rights, we made the following payments to LLU: $70,000 due at the end of December 2018, and a final payment of $60,000 due at the end of March 2019.

On February 24, 2021, our Board of Directors adopted the Aditx Therapeutics, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan provides for grants of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, and other stock-based awards (collectively, the “Awards”). Eligible recipients of Awards include employees, directors or independent contractors of the Company or any affiliate of the Company. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) will administer the 2021 Plan. A total of 60,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company may be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the 2021 Plan. The exercise price per share for the shares to be issued pursuant to an exercise of a stock option will be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value (as defined in the 2021 Plan) of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. The 2021 Plan was submitted and approved by the Company’s stockholders at the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, held on May 19, 2021.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted no new options.
The following is an analysis of the stock option grant activity under the Plan:
As of June 30, 2023 there were 44,037 exercisable options, these options had a weighted average exercise price $171.13.
The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to options granted and vesting expense of $119,928 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, of which $48,858 is included in general and administrative expenses and $71,070 is included in research and development expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. The remaining value to be expensed is $59,964 with a weighted average vesting term of 0.25 years as of June 30, 2023. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to options granted and vesting expense of $387,246 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, of which $267,318 is included in general and administrative expenses and $119,928 is included in research and development expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
The Company recognizes option forfeitures as they occur as there is insufficient historical data to accurately determine future forfeitures rates.
Warrants
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 there were no new warrants granted that required a Black Scholes valuation, therefore no fair value was assigned.
The risk-free interest rate assumption for warrants granted is based upon observed interest rates on the United States Government Bond Equivalent Yield appropriate for the expected term of warrants.
The Company determined the expected volatility assumption for warrants granted using the historical volatility of comparable public companies’ common stock. The Company will continue to monitor peer companies and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future warrant grants, until such time that the Company’s common stock has enough market history to use historical volatility.
The dividend yield assumption for warrants granted is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared nor paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
The Company recognizes warrant forfeitures as they occur as there is insufficient historical data to accurately determine future forfeitures rates.
A summary of warrant issuances are as follows:
The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to warrants granted and vesting expense of zero and $557,223 during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which is included in general and administrative in the accompanying Statements of Operations.

INCOME TAXES | NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES
The Company has incurred losses since inception. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not provide any provision for income taxes as the Company incurred losses during such period. The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company has considered both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets using a “more likely than not” standard. In making such assessment, more weight was given to evidence that could be objectively verified, including recent cumulative losses. Based on the Company’s review of this evidence, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance for its net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2023.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. Although management believes that the disclosures in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in condensed consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes related thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2023 or for any future interim periods. |
|||||||||||||||
Principles of consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aditxt, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements. |
|||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates underlying the financial statements include the collectability of notes receivable, collectability and reserve on accounts receivable, the reserve on insurance billing, and the fair value of stock options and warrants. |
|||||||||||||||
Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820. Due to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the balance sheet dates. |
|||||||||||||||
Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash accounts at financial institutions which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At times, the Company may have deposits in excess of federally insured limits. Substantially all the Company’s accounts receivable are with companies in the healthcare industry, individuals, and the U.S. government. However, concentration of credit risk is mitigated due to the Company’s number of customers. In addition, for receivables due from U.S. government agencies, the Company does not believe the receivables represent a credit risk as these are related to healthcare programs funded by the U.S. government and payment is primarily dependent upon submitting the appropriate documentation. |
|||||||||||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments. |
|||||||||||||||
Inventory | Inventory Inventory consists of laboratory materials and supplies used in laboratory analysis. We capitalize inventory when purchased. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. We periodically perform obsolescence assessments and write off any inventory that is no longer usable. |
|||||||||||||||
Fixed Assets | Fixed Assets Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes expenditures for furniture, office equipment, laboratory equipment, and other assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. The costs of fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease life of the related assets. Useful lives assigned to fixed assets are as follows:
|
|||||||||||||||
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets that have finite lives, the assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, the assets are tested periodically for impairment.
|
|||||||||||||||
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral to support customer receivables. The Company determines if receivables are past due based on days outstanding, and amounts are written off when determined to be uncollectible by management. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was an allowance for doubtful accounts of zero and $18,634, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||
Offering Costs | Offering Costs Offering costs incurred in connection with equity are recorded as a reduction of equity and offering costs incurred in connection with debt are recorded as a reduction of debt as a debt discount. |
|||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition In accordance with ASC 606 (Revenue From Contracts with Customers), revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:
Revenues reported from services relating to the AditxtScore™ are recognized when the AditxtScoreTM report is delivered to the customer. The services performed include the analysis of specimens received in the Company’s CLIA laboratory and the generation of results which are then delivered upon completion. The Company recognizes revenue in the following manner for the following types of customers: Client Payers: Client payers include physicians or other entities for which services are billed based on negotiated fee schedules. The Company principally estimates the allowance for credit losses for client payers based on historical collection experience and the period of time the receivable has been outstanding. Cash Pay: Customers are billed based on established patient fee schedules or fees negotiated with physicians on behalf of their patients. Collection of billings is subject to credit risk and the ability of the patients to pay. Insurance: Reimbursements from healthcare insurers are based on fee for service schedules. Net revenues recognized consist of amounts billed net of contractual allowances for differences between amounts billed and the estimated consideration the Company expects to receive from such payers, collection experience, and the terms of the Company’s contractual arrangements.
|
|||||||||||||||
Leases | Leases Under Topic 842 (Leases), operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. The Company has operating leases consisting of office space, laboratory space, and lab equipment. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We combine the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and right of use (“ROU”) assets. |
|||||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation costs under the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense related to the fair value of stock-based compensation awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense recognized includes the compensation cost for all stock-based payments granted to employees, officers, and directors based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. ASC 718 is also applied to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled during the periods reported. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite vesting period and over the nonemployee’s period of providing goods or services. |
|||||||||||||||
Patents | Patents The Company incurs fees from patent licenses, which is reflected in research and development expenses, and are expensed as incurred. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred patent licensing fees for the patents of $74,525 and $248,813, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||
Research and Development | Research and Development We incur research and development costs during the process of researching and developing our technologies and future offerings. We expense these costs as incurred unless such costs qualify for capitalization under applicable guidance. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred research and development costs of $1,872,376 and $2,616,302, respectively. |
|||||||||||||||
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share | Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable of common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of shares issuable through the common stock equivalents. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2023, 44,712 stock options, 2,603 unvested restricted stock units, and 7,903,748 warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share as their effects were anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2022, 2,235,466 stock options, 865,900 unvested restricted stock units, and 45,963,691 warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share as their effects were anti-dilutive. |
|||||||||||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements. |
