Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

NOTE 1 – GENERAL:

a. Nuvectis Pharma Inc. (formerly Centry Pharma Inc.) (hereafter – the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 27, 2020 and commenced its principal operations in May 2021. The Company’s principal executive offices are located at Fort Lee in the state of New Jersey.

The Company is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel targeted small molecule therapeutics for the treatment of cancer in genetically defined patient populations. The Company’s precision medicine approach translates key scientific insights relating to the oncogenic drivers and pathway addiction of cancer into potent and highly selective anticancer drugs.

b. In May 2021, the Company entered into a worldwide, exclusive license agreement with the CRT Pioneer Fund (“CRT”) (see Note 3a).

c. In May 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved and declared a 100:1 stock split of common and preferred shares. In addition, in October 2021 the Company’s board of directors approved a 39:1 stock split of common stock. All share and per share amounts reflected in these unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto have been adjusted, on a retroactive basis, to reflect these share splits.

d. In August 2021, the Company entered into a worldwide, exclusive license agreement with the University of Edinburgh, Scotland for the Company’s second drug candidate (see Note 3a).

e. In February 2022, the Company’s shares began trading on the NASDAQ under the symbol “NVCT”.

f. Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has incurred net operating losses since its inception and had an accumulated deficit of $15.8 million as of March 31, 2022. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $16.7 million as of March 31, 2022 and has not generated positive cash flows from operations. To date, the Company has been able to fund its operations primarily through the issuance and sale of common stock and redeemable convertible preferred shares. Management believes that its existing cash, and cash equivalents enable the Company to fund planned operations for at least 12 months following the issuance date of these condensed financial statements.

The Company will need to raise additional capital in order to complete the clinical trials aimed at developing the product candidates until obtaining its regulation and marketing approvals. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure such additional financing if at all, or at terms that are satisfactory to the Company, and that it will be sufficient to meet its needs. In the event the Company is not successful in obtaining sufficient funding, this could force the Company to delay, limit, or reduce its products’ development, clinical trials, commercialization efforts or other operations, or even close down or liquidate.

g. Initial Public Offering

On February 8, 2022, the Company completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) in which it sold 3,200,000 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share and received net proceeds of $12.6 million, after underwriting discounts and commissions of $1.1 million, expenses of $1.8 million and $0.5 million in stock based payments to a third party. Additionally, the convertible preferred stock were converted on a 1:1 basis into 5,012,280 shares of the Company’s common stock.

h. Corronavirus Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 to be a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic is having widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global society, economies, financial markets, and business practices. During 2021, there was a wide distribution of several vaccinations and medicines to overcome the pandemic. The Company has shifted its operations to co-exist along with the pandemic, including encouragement of vaccinations to all of its employees worldwide.

The uncertainty to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s business, affects management’s judgment and assumptions relating to accounting estimates in a variety of areas that depend on these estimates and assumptions. COVID-19 did not have a material influence on these estimates and judgements since the Company began operations in 2021.

The Company continues to face relative uncertainty as to the remaining intensity and duration of and the nature and timeline for recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic going forward and how all of that impacts the Company, including the extent to which potentially permanent changes clinical trial operations have been caused by the pandemic. The Company has taken the approach of managing the pandemic (to the extent that it continues to remain a significant factor) via strengthening its balance sheet and cash assets and avoiding debt while focusing on cost controls.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

a. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited. The unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), are stated in U.S. dollars and follow the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements as certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP can be condensed or omitted. The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair statement of results for the interim periods. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of those expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future period. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 23, 2022.

The significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

b. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses in the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant estimates in the Company’s financial statements relate to accruals for research and development expenses, valuation of equity awards, and valuation allowances for deferred tax assets. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, future expectations, and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying

8

values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

c. Fair Value Measurement

The Company follows authoritative accounting guidance, which among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (at exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value include:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. The Company’s Level 1 assets consist of money market funds.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

The money market accounts included in cash and cash equivalents are considered Level 1.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers between fair value measure levels. Other financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values.

d. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

a. License Agreements

CRT Pioneer Fund License Agreement

There have been no material changes to the CRT Pioneer Fund License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) as previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2022 (see Note 5a in the Notes to the Financial Statements) except noted below.

In connection with the License Agreement, the Company agreed to provide Institute of Cancer Research in London, UK (“ICR”) with up to an additional $500,000 in research and development support over the next 18 months to conduct additional scientific research and preclinical testing for certain indications that the Company selects in connection with the NXP800 Program. According to the License Agreement, the Company also has an exclusive

9

license to intellectual property rights developed in the collaboration, to research, develop and commercialize products resulting from the collaboration. On March 31, 2022, the Company and ICR reached an agreement for research and development support totaling $865,000 ($365,000 above the License Agreement) however no expense was incurred during the period due to the timing of the contract execution. The Company expects to recognize expenses associated with this agreement in future periods.

Any potential milestone or royalty payment amounts have not been accrued at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 due to the uncertainty related to the achievement of these events or milestones except for the research and development support discussed above.

University of Edinburgh License Agreement

There have been no material changes to the University of Edinburgh (“UoE”) License Agreement as previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2022 (see Note 5a in the Notes to the Financial Statements).

Any potential future research support, milestone or royalty payment amounts have not been accrued at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 due to the uncertainty related to the achievement of these events, milestones or commitments to additional research.

b. Related Party Transactions

As for related party transactions, see Note 7 and Note 8.

c. Contingencies

As of March 31, 2022, and as of December 31, 2021, there are no contingent liabilities, therefore, no provision was made.

NOTE 4 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY/(DEFICIT):

a. In May 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved and declared a 100:1 stock split of common stock with a par value of $0.00001 and preferred shares, with a par value of $0.00001. In addition, the Company increased the number of authorized common stock from 3,900,000 to 12,870,000 and preferred shares from 40,000 to 170,000. In addition, in October 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved a 39:1 stock split. As a result of the above splits, all shares, options and warrants exercisable into common stock and restricted stock units, exercise prices and income or loss per share amounts have been adjusted on a retroactive basis for all periods presented to reflect such stock splits. Upon the completion of the Company’s IPO, all outstanding shares of the Company’s preferred A stock was converted into shares of the Company’s common stock on a 1:1 basis.

NOTE 5 – SHARE BASED PAYMENTS:

a. Share Based Payments

In February 2022, the Company granted to HC Wainwright & Co. the underwriter of our IPO 128,000 fully vested warrants upon the IPO, exercisable into common stock with an exercise price of $6.25 per share. for 5 years after the grant date. The 128,000 fully vested warrants have an estimated value (based on Black-Scholes model) of approximately $458,000 and were recognized as a reduction from gross proceeds of the IPO.

The following table summarizes assumptions used for the Black-Scholes model at the grant date:

Risk-free interest rate		1.78	%
Common share price	$	5.00
Expected dividend yield		—
Expected term (in years)		5
Expected volatility		99	%

Volatility was estimated based on the historic volatility of comparable public companies.

b. 2021 Global Equity Incentive Plan

In May 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved a global equity incentive plan (hereafter — “Incentive Plan”), in which the Company has reserved a total amount of 408,486 common stock for issuance in connection with the Incentive Plan. In February 2022, the Company’s board of directors approved an increase to total shares under the incentive plan to 1,500,000.

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) have been granted to employees and directors. The value of an RSU award is based on the Company’s stock price on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model (“OPM”). The shares underlying the RSU awards are not issued until the RSUs vest. Upon vesting, each RSU converts into one share of the Company’s common stock. The Company granted RSUs pursuant to the Incentive Plan.

The RSUs granted during the quarter vest over three years with 1/3 vesting on each anniversary date of the grant.

Share Compensation Expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized expenses of $0.3 million as part of the general and administrative expenses and $0.1 million as part of the research and development expenses.

In evaluating our business, you should carefully consider the information set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. As used below, the words “we,” “us” and “our” may refer to Nuvectis Pharma, Inc.

Overview

We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel targeted small molecule therapeutics for the treatment of cancer in genetically defined patient populations. Our precision medicine approach translates key scientific insights relating to the oncogenic drivers and pathway addiction of cancer into potent and highly selective anticancer drugs. In addition, we will investigate the relevance of specific mutations and other DNA alterations as a potential patient selection marker and to identify synthetic lethality targets. This work could support our use of a tumor agnostic development strategy wherein we enroll patients based on the cancer’s genetic and molecular features without regard to the type or location of the cancer.

NXP800 (HSF1-Pathway Inhibitor) 

We have licensed exclusive world-wide commercial rights to NXP800, a novel Heat Shock Factor 1 (“HSF1”) pathway inhibitor, which was developed at the Institute for Cancer Research (“ICR”) in London, England. Cancer cells actively exploit HSF1 to overcome diverse stresses and promote biological activities crucial for their survival, progression, immune evasion, and metastasis.

In preclinical studies, treatment with NXP800 inhibited tumor growth in xenografts models of human ovarian cancer. In addition, a genetic mutation in the AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 1A (“ARID1a”) gene has been identified as a potential biomarker for treatment sensitivity and patient selection. Based on this work, we plan to clinically investigate NXP800 in Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma (“OCCC”) and endometrioid ovarian carcinoma, and to investigate the utility of ARID1a deficiency as a patient selection marker. The genetic screening for the ARID1a mutation is a standard part of the commercially available screening panels being utilized in the clinic for cancer patients.

The Phase 1 study is comprised of two parts: dose-escalation Phase 1a, initiated in December 2021, to be followed by an expansion Phase 1b. In the Phase 1a, the safety and tolerability of NXP800 will be evaluated in patients with advanced solid tumors to identify a dose and dosing schedule for the Phase 1b. In the Phase 1b, the safety and preliminary anti-tumor activity of NXP800 will be evaluated, initially in patients with OCCC and endometrioid carcinoma and possibly in patients with other types of solid tumors. Additional preclinical studies will be conducted to identify development opportunities for NXP800 in additional solid tumor types.

NXP900

NXP900 is a preclinical-stage drug candidate designed to preferentially inhibit the Proto-oncogene c-Src (“SRC”) and YES1 kinases. NXP900 was discovered at the University of Edinburgh. SRC is aberrantly activated in many cancer types, including solid tumors such as breast, colon, prostate, pancreatic and ovarian, while remaining predominantly inactive in non-cancerous cells. Increased SRC activity is generally associated with late-stage cancers, metastatic potential and resistance to therapy, and correlates with poor clinical prognosis. YES1 gene amplification has been reported to be implicated in several tumors including lung, head and neck, bladder and esophageal cancers. Furthermore, it has been found that YES1 gene amplification is a key mechanism of resistance to Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (“EGFR”) or (Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (“HER2”) inhibitors. A recent, peer reviewed study published in Nature Communication which was not sponsored by the Company, has shown positive affects of using NXP900 in combination with the leading EFGR inhibitorl, Tagrisso, to overcome Tagrisso’s resistance in Tagrisso-resistant cell lines.  

14

Preclinically, NXP900 has been shown to inhibit SRC and YES1 kinases and substantially inhibit growth of primary tumors and bone metastases in several triple negative breast cancer (“TNBC”) animal models.

We plan to initially develop NXP900 in solid tumors where SRC and/or YES1 are implicated. We anticipate submitting an IND or an equivalent submission with a foreign agency in early 2023.

Since our inception in 2020, we have devoted all of our efforts and financial resources to organizing and staffing our company, business planning, raising capital, acquiring, discovering product candidates and securing related intellectual property rights and conducting research and development activities for our programs. We do not have any products approved for sale and have not generated any revenue from product sales. We may never be able to develop or commercialize a marketable product. We have not yet successfully completed any pivotal clinical trials, obtained any regulatory approvals, manufactured a commercial-scale drug, or conducted sales and marketing activities.

Results of Operations

The following table summarizes our results of operations expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022: (in thousands)

	Three Months Ended March 31					Increase/

OPERATING LOSS		(2,945)		(23)		2,822
FINANCE INCOME		2		—		2
NET LOSS	$	(2,943)	$	(23)	$	2,820

From our inception on July 27, 2020, through March 31, 2022, we did not generate any revenue. Our main activities through March 31, 2022 have been organizational and capital raising activities and the completion of the in-license agreements for our two drug candidates, NXP800 and NXP900, our Clinical Trial Application by the Medicines and Healthcare Regulatory Agency, and preparation for the Phase 1a clinical trial for NXP800, which commenced in December 2021, and beginning our IND-enabling studies for NXP900, which commenced in late 2021. Additionally, we completed our initial public offering in February 2022.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, including licensing fees, cost of salaries, share-based compensation expenses, payroll taxes, and other employee benefits, subcontractors, and materials used for research and development activities, including clinical trials, manufacturing costs, and professional services. All costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred.

Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally have higher development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later-stage clinical trials. We expect that our research and development expenses will increase substantially in connection with our ongoing and planned preclinical and clinical development activities in the near term and in the future. The successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain. At this time, we cannot accurately estimate or know the nature, timing and costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the preclinical and clinical development of any of our product candidates and we may never succeed in obtaining regulatory approval for any of our product candidates.

The following table summarizes our research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022: (in thousands)

	For the three months ended March 31					Increase/
	2022		2021			(Decrease)
Employee Compensation and Benefits	$	467	$	—	$	467
Clinical Expense		444		—		444

Manufacturing		304		—		304
Professional services and other		190		—		190
Total research and development expenses	$	1,805	$	—	$	1,805

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred research and development expenses of $1.8 million, primarily related to $0.5 million in employee expenses, including $0.1 million in non-cash equity expenses, clinical expenses totaling $0.4 million paid out in connection with our product candidates, NXP800 and NXP900, $0.4 million in licensing fee payments associated with our IPO and the UoE license agreement and $0.3 million of manufacturing expenses mainly associated with NXP800. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we did not incur any material research and development expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel-related costs, including stock-based compensation, for our personnel in executive, finance and accounting, and other administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include legal fees relating to patent and corporate matters; professional fees paid for accounting, auditing, consulting, and tax services; insurance costs; travel expenses; and facility costs not otherwise included in research and development expenses.

We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we increase our headcount to support our continued research and development activities.

The following table summarizes our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022: (in thousands)

	For the three months ended March 31					Increase/
	2022		2021			(Decrease)
Professional and consulting services	$	683	$	23	$	660
Employee Compensation and Benefits		179		—		179
Insurance and Other		278		—		277
Total general and administrative expenses	$	1,140	$	23	$	1,117

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, our general and administrative expenses were $1.1 million, primarily attributable to $0.7 million of expenses to certain third party service providers, $0.2 million paid to employees during the period, and $0.2 million mainly due to insurance associated with the IPO. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we did not incur any material general and administrative expenses.

As a result of the foregoing, our loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was $2.9 million, compared to a loss from operations of $23,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

We expect our research and development and general and administrative expenses to increase substantially in the future as we begin the execution of our business plan for our two pipeline product candidates, NXP800 and NXP900, and continue to build-out our infrastructure to support such research and development activities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2022, we had $16.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, we had net losses of $2.9 million and $23,000, respectively. As of March 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $15.8 million.

16

On February 4, 2022, we entered into an underwriting agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co. (the “Underwriter”), as sole book-running manager, in connection with our initial public offering of common stock (the “IPO”). On February 4, 2022, we announced the pricing of our IPO of 3,200,000 shares of common stock for a price of $5.00 per share, less certain underwriting discounts and commissions. As part of the UoE license agreement, the Company owes UoE $0.4 million associated with this fundraising. We will pay UoE 2.5% of the gross amount of each of the Company’s future fund raisings up to a cumulative total of $3.0 million, including this $0.4 million.

The IPO closed on February 8, 2022, with gross proceeds of $16.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and expenses (for net proceeds of $12.6 million). We believe that the proceeds from our IPO will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditures through at least the next 12 months from the issuance of our financial statements. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect. Our future viability in the long term is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital to finance our operations.

We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance the preclinical activities and clinical trials of our current or future product candidates, including payments of milestones and sponsored research commitments associated with our license agreements for NXP800 and NXP900. In addition, now that we have closed our IPO, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company, including significant legal, accounting, investor relations, and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. The timing and amount of our operating expenditures will depend largely on our ability to:

➢advance development of our clinical and preclinical programs;

➢acquire additional product candidates;

➢ manufacture, or procure the manufacturing of, our preclinical and clinical drug material and develop processes for late stage and commercial manufacturing;

➢seek regulatory approvals for any current or future product candidates that successfully complete clinical trials;

➢achieve milestones in accordance with our license agreements;

➢ establish a sales, marketing, medical affairs and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any current or future product candidates for which we may obtain marketing approval;

➢hire additional clinical, quality control and scientific personnel;

➢ expand our operational, financial and management systems and increase personnel, including personnel to support our clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and our operations as a public company; and

➢obtain, maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio.

We anticipate that we will require additional capital as we seek regulatory approval of our product candidates and if we choose to pursue in-licenses or acquisitions of other product candidates. If we receive regulatory approval for our other future product candidates, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution, depending on where we choose to commercialize.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with research, development and commercialization of our product candidates, we are unable to estimate the exact amount of our working capital requirements. Our future funding requirements will depend on and could increase significantly as a result of many factors, including:

➢ the scope, progress, results and costs of researching and developing our current or future product candidates, and conducting preclinical and clinical trials;

17

➢the costs, timing and outcome of regulatory review of our current or future product candidates;

➢ the costs, timing and ability to manufacture our current or future product candidates to supply our clinical and preclinical development efforts and our clinical trials;

➢ the costs of future activities, including product sales, medical affairs, marketing, manufacturing and distribution, for any of our current or future product candidates for which we receive marketing approval;

➢the costs of manufacturing commercial-grade products and necessary inventory to support commercial launch;

➢the ability to receive additional non-dilutive funding, including grants from organizations and foundations;

➢ the revenue, if any, received from commercial sale of our products, should any of our current or future product candidates receive marketing approval;

➢ the costs of preparing, filing and prosecuting patent applications, obtaining, maintaining, expanding and enforcing our intellectual property rights and defending intellectual property-related claims;

➢our ability to establish and maintain collaborations on favorable terms, if at all; and

➢the extent to which we acquire or in-license other product candidates and technologies.

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our operations through a combination of public or private equity offerings, debt financings, governmental funding, collaborations, strategic partnerships and alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest may be materially diluted, and the terms of such securities could include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a common stockholder. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. In addition, debt financing would result in fixed payment obligations.

If we raise additional funds through governmental funding, collaborations, strategic partnerships and alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research, product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Cash Flows

Net cash used in operating activities	$	(3,076)	$	—
Net cash used in investing activities		—		—
Net cash provided by financing activities		14,027		—

Operating Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, $3.0 million of cash was used in operating activities. This was primarily attributable to our net loss of $2.9 million, partially offset by non-cash charges of $0.2 million. The change in our operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase of $0.8 million in prepaid and other assets, which was primarily due to $1.1 million payment for our director

18

and officer insurance, partially offset by $0.5 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expense, due to growth in our business, the advancement of our research programs, and the timing of vendor invoicing and payments.

Financing activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities was $14.0 million, consisting primarily of proceeds from the sale of our common stock, offset by $2.0 million of commission and deferred offering costs paid.

Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments

We enter into contracts in the normal course of business with clinical research organizations, contract manufacturing organizations, and other third parties for clinical trials, preclinical research studies, and testing and manufacturing services. These contracts are cancelable by us upon prior written notice. Payments due upon cancellation consist only of payments for services provided or expenses incurred, including noncancelable obligations of our service providers, up to the date of cancellation. The amount and timing of such payments are not known.

We have also entered into license and collaboration agreements with third parties, which are in the normal course of business. We have not included future payments under these agreements since obligations under these agreements are contingent upon future events such as our achievement of specified development, regulatory, and commercial milestones, or royalties on net product sales.

Pursuant to the NXP800 License Agreement, we are required to make payments to the ICR for certain development and regulatory milestones. As of March 31, 2022, we were obligated to pay up to $23.0 million in milestone payments to the ICR related to pre-approval milestones, up to $178 million (in addition to the $23.0 million) in regulatory and commercial sales milestones, and mid-single digit to 10% royalties on a tiered basis on net sales. Additionally, the Company originally agreed to provide the ICR with up to an additional $0.5 million in research and development. On March 31, 2022, the Company and ICR agreed to research and development support of an additional $0.4 million ($9.0 million total).

Pursuant to the NXP900 License Agreement, we are required to make payments to the UoE for certain development and regulatory milestones. As of March 31, 2022, we were obligated to make up to $46.0 million in milestone payments to the UoE related to pre-approval milestones, including $0.5 million on the first anniversary of the agreement, up to $279.5 million in regulatory and commercial sales milestones, mid-single digit to 8% royalties on a tiered basis on net sales and 2.5% of the gross amount of each of the Company’s future fund raising up to a cumulative total of $3.0 million. Additionally, the Company will provide UoE with up to an additional $754,000 in research and development support.

We do not currently have any long-term leases. We rent our office space in Fort Lee, New Jersey, based on a one-year agreement signed on May 1, 2022.

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 Securities and Exchange Commission.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

Our condensed financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of condensed financial statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs, expenses, and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by management. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows will be affected.

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to those described in “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ” to our audited financial statements set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 23, 2022.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to our condensed financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 permits an “emerging growth company” such as us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to not “opt out” of this provision and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards at the time private companies adopt the new or revised accounting standard and will do so until such time that we either (i) irrevocably elect to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualify as an emerging growth company.

We are also a “smaller reporting company” meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates plus the proposed aggregate amount of gross proceeds to us as a result of our initial public offering is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We will continue to be a smaller reporting company for as long as either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million. If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and, similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Under SEC rules and regulations, because we are considered to be a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide the information required by this item in this report.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2022, management carried out, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

20

Changes in and Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of Finance, believes that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and are effective at the reasonable assurance level. However, management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, the resolution of which we do not anticipate would have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no certainty that any such future litigation that may arise would not have a material financial impact on our business. As of the date of this report, we were not a party to any material legal matters or claims.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

During the period covered by this report, we have not issued any unregistered securities.

Use of Proceeds from Sales of Registered Securities

On February 4, 2022, our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-260099) and our registration statement on Form S-1MEF (File No. 333-262512) (collectively, the “Registration Statements”) were declared effective by the SEC. Pursuant to such Registration Statements, we sold an aggregate of 3,200,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $5.00 per share for aggregate net cash proceeds of approximately $13.1 million, which amount is net of $1.12 million in underwriter’s discounts, and commissions, and $1.8 million of other expenses incurred in connection with the offering. We closed the offering on February 8, 2022. H.C. Wainwright & Co. acted as sole book-running manager for the offering.

We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering to fund the Phase 1/2 development of NXP800, to continue development and sponsored research related to our current product candidates or any future product candidate, hiring of additional personnel, capital expenditures, costs of operating as a public company and other general corporate purposes.

There has been no material change in the expected use of the net proceeds from our initial public offering as described in our final prospectus filed with the SEC on February 8, 2022 pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act. We invested the funds received in an interest-bearing money market account.

GENERAL

GENERAL

NOTE 1 – GENERAL:

a. Nuvectis Pharma Inc. (formerly Centry Pharma Inc.) (hereafter – the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 27, 2020 and commenced its principal operations in May 2021. The Company’s principal executive offices are located at Fort Lee in the state of New Jersey.

The Company is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel targeted small molecule therapeutics for the treatment of cancer in genetically defined patient populations. The Company’s precision medicine approach translates key scientific insights relating to the oncogenic drivers and pathway addiction of cancer into potent and highly selective anticancer drugs.

b. In May 2021, the Company entered into a worldwide, exclusive license agreement with the CRT Pioneer Fund (“CRT”) (see Note 3a).

c. In May 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved and declared a 100:1 stock split of common and preferred shares. In addition, in October 2021 the Company’s board of directors approved a 39:1 stock split of common stock. All share and per share amounts reflected in these unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto have been adjusted, on a retroactive basis, to reflect these share splits.

d. In August 2021, the Company entered into a worldwide, exclusive license agreement with the University of Edinburgh, Scotland for the Company’s second drug candidate (see Note 3a).

e. In February 2022, the Company’s shares began trading on the NASDAQ under the symbol “NVCT”.

f. Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has incurred net operating losses since its inception and had an accumulated deficit of $15.8 million as of March 31, 2022. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $16.7 million as of March 31, 2022 and has not generated positive cash flows from operations. To date, the Company has been able to fund its operations primarily through the issuance and sale of common stock and redeemable convertible preferred shares. Management believes that its existing cash, and cash equivalents enable the Company to fund planned operations for at least 12 months following the issuance date of these condensed financial statements.

The Company will need to raise additional capital in order to complete the clinical trials aimed at developing the product candidates until obtaining its regulation and marketing approvals. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure such additional financing if at all, or at terms that are satisfactory to the Company, and that it will be sufficient to meet its needs. In the event the Company is not successful in obtaining sufficient funding, this could force the Company to delay, limit, or reduce its products’ development, clinical trials, commercialization efforts or other operations, or even close down or liquidate.

g. Initial Public Offering

On February 8, 2022, the Company completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) in which it sold 3,200,000 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share and received net proceeds of $12.6 million, after underwriting discounts and commissions of $1.1 million, expenses of $1.8 million and $0.5 million in stock based payments to a third party. Additionally, the convertible preferred stock were converted on a 1:1 basis into 5,012,280 shares of the Company’s common stock.

h. Corronavirus Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 to be a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic is having widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global society, economies, financial markets, and business practices. During 2021, there was a wide distribution of several vaccinations and medicines to overcome the pandemic. The Company has shifted its operations to co-exist along with the pandemic, including encouragement of vaccinations to all of its employees worldwide.

The uncertainty to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s business, affects management’s judgment and assumptions relating to accounting estimates in a variety of areas that depend on these estimates and assumptions. COVID-19 did not have a material influence on these estimates and judgements since the Company began operations in 2021.

The Company continues to face relative uncertainty as to the remaining intensity and duration of and the nature and timeline for recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic going forward and how all of that impacts the Company, including the extent to which potentially permanent changes clinical trial operations have been caused by the pandemic. The Company has taken the approach of managing the pandemic (to the extent that it continues to remain a significant factor) via strengthening its balance sheet and cash assets and avoiding debt while focusing on cost controls.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2022

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

a. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited. The unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), are stated in U.S. dollars and follow the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements as certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP can be condensed or omitted. The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair statement of results for the interim periods. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of those expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future period. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 23, 2022.

The significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

b. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses in the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant estimates in the Company’s financial statements relate to accruals for research and development expenses, valuation of equity awards, and valuation allowances for deferred tax assets. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, future expectations, and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying

values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

c. Fair Value Measurement

The Company follows authoritative accounting guidance, which among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (at exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value include:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. The Company’s Level 1 assets consist of money market funds.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

The money market accounts included in cash and cash equivalents are considered Level 1.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers between fair value measure levels. Other financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values.

d. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

a. License Agreements

CRT Pioneer Fund License Agreement

There have been no material changes to the CRT Pioneer Fund License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) as previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2022 (see Note 5a in the Notes to the Financial Statements) except noted below.

In connection with the License Agreement, the Company agreed to provide Institute of Cancer Research in London, UK (“ICR”) with up to an additional $500,000 in research and development support over the next 18 months to conduct additional scientific research and preclinical testing for certain indications that the Company selects in connection with the NXP800 Program. According to the License Agreement, the Company also has an exclusive

license to intellectual property rights developed in the collaboration, to research, develop and commercialize products resulting from the collaboration. On March 31, 2022, the Company and ICR reached an agreement for research and development support totaling $865,000 ($365,000 above the License Agreement) however no expense was incurred during the period due to the timing of the contract execution. The Company expects to recognize expenses associated with this agreement in future periods.

Any potential milestone or royalty payment amounts have not been accrued at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 due to the uncertainty related to the achievement of these events or milestones except for the research and development support discussed above.

University of Edinburgh License Agreement

There have been no material changes to the University of Edinburgh (“UoE”) License Agreement as previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2022 (see Note 5a in the Notes to the Financial Statements).

Any potential future research support, milestone or royalty payment amounts have not been accrued at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 due to the uncertainty related to the achievement of these events, milestones or commitments to additional research.

b. Related Party Transactions

As for related party transactions, see Note 7 and Note 8.

c. Contingencies

As of March 31, 2022, and as of December 31, 2021, there are no contingent liabilities, therefore, no provision was made.

In addition, the Company increased the number of authorized common stock from 3,900,000 to 12,870,000 and preferred shares from 40,000 to 170,000. In addition, in October 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved a 39:1 stock split. As a result of the above splits, all shares, options and warrants exercisable into common stock and restricted stock units, exercise prices and income or loss per share amounts have been adjusted on a retroactive basis for all periods presented to reflect such stock splits. Upon the completion of the Company’s IPO, all outstanding shares of the Company’s preferred A stock was converted into shares of the Company’s common stock on a 1:1 basis.

NOTE 5 – SHARE BASED PAYMENTS:

a. Share Based Payments

In February 2022, the Company granted to HC Wainwright & Co. the underwriter of our IPO 128,000 fully vested warrants upon the IPO, exercisable into common stock with an exercise price of $6.25 per share. for 5 years after the grant date. The 128,000 fully vested warrants have an estimated value (based on Black-Scholes model) of approximately $458,000 and were recognized as a reduction from gross proceeds of the IPO.

The following table summarizes assumptions used for the Black-Scholes model at the grant date:

Risk-free interest rate		1.78	%
Common share price	$	5.00
Expected dividend yield		—
Expected term (in years)		5
Expected volatility		99	%

Volatility was estimated based on the historic volatility of comparable public companies.

b. 2021 Global Equity Incentive Plan

In May 2021, the Company’s board of directors approved a global equity incentive plan (hereafter — “Incentive Plan”), in which the Company has reserved a total amount of 408,486 common stock for issuance in connection with the Incentive Plan. In February 2022, the Company’s board of directors approved an increase to total shares under the incentive plan to 1,500,000.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity in the Incentive Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2022:

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) have been granted to employees and directors. The value of an RSU award is based on the Company’s stock price on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model (“OPM”). The shares underlying the RSU awards are not issued until the RSUs vest. Upon vesting, each RSU converts into one share of the Company’s common stock. The Company granted RSUs pursuant to the Incentive Plan.

The following table summarizes the Company’s RSU activity for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as described above from the Incentive Plan:

	Number of	Weighted		Weighted average	Aggregated

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

a. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited. The unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), are stated in U.S. dollars and follow the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements as certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP can be condensed or omitted. The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair statement of results for the interim periods. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of those expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future period. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 23, 2022.

The significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

b. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses in the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant estimates in the Company’s financial statements relate to accruals for research and development expenses, valuation of equity awards, and valuation allowances for deferred tax assets. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, future expectations, and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying

values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

Fair Value Measurement

c. Fair Value Measurement

The Company follows authoritative accounting guidance, which among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (at exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value include:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. The Company’s Level 1 assets consist of money market funds.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

The money market accounts included in cash and cash equivalents are considered Level 1.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers between fair value measure levels. Other financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

d. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
