• Q1 Financial Performance Deteriorates

  Revenues decreased 22% to $3.923 million, and net loss increased 123% to $10.793 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025.

• Going Concern Warning Reaffirmed

  Management reiterated substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern for at least the next 12 months, despite recent financing.

• Oramed Financing Leads to Massive Dilution

  The strategic acquisition and financing with Oramed Pharmaceuticals involved issuing 1,250,363 ordinary shares, pre-funded warrants for 1,006,113 shares, and 1,296,296 freestanding warrants. If all outstanding derivative securities were converted, potential dilution would exceed 250% of current outstanding shares.

• Cash Infusion with High Interest Debt

  Net cash proceeds from the Oramed financing were approximately $5.4 million, increasing cash on hand to $11.4 million. However, the financing included new convertible notes at 8% interest and additional secured notes at a 24% annual interest rate.

This 10-Q provides the full financial details behind the previously announced Q1 results and the Oramed financing. The significant revenue decline and sharply increased net loss highlight ongoing operational challenges. While the Oramed deal provided a much-needed cash infusion of $5.4 million, it came at a very high cost, leading to massive potential dilution of over 250% from outstanding derivative securities. The immediate expensing of $4.9 million in acquired in-process R&D further underscores the financial strain. The continued going concern warning indicates that despite these efforts, the company's long-term viability remains uncertain without further capital raises or a significant turnaround.
