NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of Business

Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. ("Oncotelic"), was formed in the State of New York in 1988 as OXiGENE, Inc., was reincorporated in the State of Delaware in 1992, and changed its name to Mateon Therapeutics, Inc. in 2016, and Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. in November 2020. Oncotelic conducts business activities through Oncotelic and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Oncotelic, Inc., a Delaware corporation, PointR Data, Inc. ("PointR"), a Delaware corporation; Pet2DAO, Inc ("Pet2DAO") and EdgePoint AI, Inc. ("Edgepoint"), a Delaware Corporation for which there are non-controlling interests, (Oncotelic, Oncotelic Inc., PointR, Pet2DAO and Edgepoint are collectively called the "Company" or "We"). The Company completed a reverse merger with Oncotelic Inc in April 2019, a merger with PointR in November 2019 and formed a subsidiary Edgepoint in February 2020. For more information on these mergers, refer to our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

The Company is currently developing OT-101, through its joint venture ("JV") with Dragon Overseas Capital Limited ("Dragon") and GMP Biotechnology Limited ("GMP Bio"), both affiliates of Golden Mountain Partners ("GMP"), for various cancers and COVID-19, Artemisinin for COVID-19 and AI technologies for clinical development and manufacturing. The Company is also independently planning to develop OT-101 for certain animal health indications and contemplating using crypto currencies for that platform. The Company acquired apomorphine for Parkinson's Disease, erectile dysfunction and female sexual dysfunction. In addition, the Company is evaluating the further development of its product candidates OXi4503, as a treatment for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes, and CA4P, in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor for the treatment of advanced metastatic melanoma.

The Company is primarily a cancer immunotherapy company dedicated to the development of first in class self-immunization protocol ("SIP™") candidates for difficult to treat cancers. The Company's proprietary SIP™ candidates are expected to offer advantages over other immunotherapies because they do not require extraction of the tumor or isolation of the antigens, and they have the potential for broad-spectrum applicability for multiple cancer types. The Company's proprietary product candidates have shown promising clinical activity in phase 2 trials for the treatment of gliomas and pancreatic cancers. The Company aims to translate its unique insights, which span more than three decades of original work using RNA therapeutics, into the deployment of antisense as a RNA therapeutic for diseases which are caused by TGF-β overexpression, starting with cancer and expanding to Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy ("DMD") and others. OT-101, is being developed as a broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug that can also be used in combination with other standard cancer therapies to establish an effective multi-modality treatment strategy for difficult-to-treat cancers. The JV plans to initiate phase 2 and 3 clinical trials for OT-101 in both high-grade glioma and pancreatic cancer, and any other indications that may evolve, for human pharmaceutical needs. The JV may also be sponsoring investigator-initiated studies for OT-101 for other oncology indications. The Company is evaluating the further development of its product candidates OXi4503, as a treatment for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes, and CA4P, in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor for the treatment of advanced metastatic melanoma. The JV is also developing OT-101 for the various epidemics and pandemics, similar to the corona virus ("COVID-19") pandemic. In this connection, the Company entered into an agreement and supplemental agreement with GMP for a total of $1.2million to render services and was paid for the development of OT-101. The Company was working with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority ("BARDA") to conduct an observational study to evaluate the effects of long COVID-19 and had been provided a grant of up to $0.75million for the study; however, BARDA discontinued that program with the Company. In 2020 and 2021, the Company was developing Artemisinin as a potential therapy for COVID-19. Artemisinin, purified from a plant Artemisia annua. For more information on GMP and Artemisinin, refer to our 2023 Annual report on Form 10- K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

For more information on Pet2DAO, refer to our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

Mosaic ImmunoEngineering, Inc. Term Sheet

In April 2024, the Company entered into a binding term sheet (the "Term Sheet") with Mosaic ImmunoEngineering, Inc. ("Mosaic"). For more information on the Term Sheet, refer to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 29, 2024. In August 2024, Mosaic and the Company mutually agreed to extend the date of the Term Sheet to expire at the earlier of (1) the signing of definitive agreements or (2) December 31, 2024. This was to allow for both Companies to complete due diligence as well as agree and finalize the definitive agreements.

Licensing Agreement with Autotelic Inc.

In September 2021, the Company entered into an exclusive License Agreement (the "Agreement") with Autotelic, Inc. ("Autotelic"). For more information on the Agreement, refer to our 2023 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oncotelic, its wholly owned subsidiaries, Oncotelic Inc. and PointR, and Edgepoint our non-controlled interest entity. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission including Form 10-K and Regulation S-X.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred net accumulated losses of approximately $37.4million since inception of Oncotelic Inc., as the Company's historical financial statements before the Merger have been replaced with the historical financial statements of Oncotelic Inc. The Company also has a negative working capital of approximately $16.1million at September 30, 2024, of which approximately $2.6million contingent liability of issuance of common shares of the Company to PointR shareholders upon achievement of certain milestones in accordance with the PointR Merger Agreement. The Company has negative cash flows from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 of approximately $0.6million. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of this filing Management expects to incur significantly lower costs and losses in the foreseeable future, as a majority of the costs related with the development of OT-101 will be incurred by the JV, but the Company also recognizes the need to raise capital to remain viable. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company's long-term plans include continued development of its current pipeline of products, in addition to continue the development of OT-101 which is exclusively out-licensed to the JV and the JV will be responsible for the funding required to support the development in entirety, to generate sufficient revenues, through either technology transfer or product sales, or raise additional financing to cover its anticipated expenses. Until the Company is able to generate sufficient revenues from its current pipeline, the Company plans on funding its operations through the sale of equity and/or the issuance of debt, combined with or without warrants or other equity instruments.

The Company obtained short terms loans of approximately $0.6million from Autotelic Inc., a related party, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. In addition, the Company obtained a short-term loan of $15thousand from Amit Shah, it's CFO during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Although no assurances can be given as to the Company's ability to deliver on its revenue plans, or that unforeseen expenses may arise, management believes that the potential equity and debt financing or other potential financing will provide the necessary funding for the Company to continue as a going concern. Also, management cannot guarantee any potential debt or equity financing will be available on favorable terms or at all. As such, management does not believe the Company has sufficient cash for 12 months from the date of this report. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, or at all, the Company will need to curtail operations, or cease operations completely.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity-based transactions and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

The Company believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements. Significant estimates include the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets for impairment, deferred tax asset and valuation allowance, and fair value of financial instruments.

Cash

As of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023 the Company held all its cash in banks. The Company considers investments in highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Restricted cash consists of certificates of deposits held at banks as collateral.

Debt issuance Costs and Debt discount

Issuance costs are specific incremental costs that are (1) paid to third parties and (2) directly attributable to the issuance of a debt or equity instrument. The issuance costs attributable to the initial sale of the instrument are offset against the associated proceeds in the determination of the instrument's initial net carrying amount.

Debt issuance costs and debt discounts are being amortized over the lives of the related financings on a basis that approximates the effective interest method. Costs and discounts are presented as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying balance sheets if related to the issuance of debt or presented as a reduction of additional paid in capital if related to the issuance of an equity instrument. The Company applies the relative fair value to allocate the issuance costs among freestanding instruments that form part of the same transaction.

If the Company amends the terms of its convertible notes, the Company reviews and applies the guidance per ASC 470-60 Troubled debt restructurings and ASC 470-50 Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments, evaluates and concludes whether the terms of the agreements were or were not substantially different as of a particular reporting date and accounts the transaction as a debt modification or a troubled debt restructuring.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued expense approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. As defined in ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement). This fair value measurement framework applies at both initial and subsequent measurement.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are as follows:

●	Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.
●	Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options and collars.
●	Level 3 - Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management's best estimate of fair value.

The Company did not have any Level 1 or Level 2 assets and liabilities at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Investment in equity securities

The following table summarizes the cumulative gross unrealized gains and losses and fair values for long-term investments accounted for at fair value under the fair value option, with the unrealized gains and losses reported within earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operation as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

		Initial Book Value			Cumulative Gross Unrealized Gains			Cumulative Gross Unrealized Losses			Fair Value
September 30, 2024
Investment in GMP Bio (equity securities)		$	22,653,225			$	-			$	-			$	22,653,225
Total		$	22,653,225			$	-			$	-			$	22,653,225

		Initial Book Value			Cumulative Gross Unrealized Gains			Cumulative Gross Unrealized Losses			Fair Value
December 31, 2023
Investment in GMP Bio (equity securities)		$	22,640,521			$	12,704			$	-			$	22,653,225
Total		$	22,640,521			$	12,704			$	-			$	22,653,225

The table above sets forth a summary of the recording of the initial value of the long-term value of investment in equity securities of GMP Bio, based on a third-party valuation report, and changes in the fair value of such equity securities, if such change occurs, as a Level 3 fair value as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, there have been no changes in the long-term value of the investment in equity securities of GMP Bio.

Derivative Liability

The Company has certain derivative liabilities associated with its 2019 bridge financing Convertible Notes (see Note 5), which consisted of conversion feature derivatives at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, are Level 3 fair value measurements.

The table below sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company's derivative liabilities classified as Level 3 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

		September 30, 2024 Conversion Feature			December 31, 2023 Conversion Feature
Balance at January 1, 2024 and 2023		$	423,214			$	198,140
New derivative liability			-				-
Reclassification to additional paid in capital from conversion of debt to common stock			-				-
Change in fair value			(140,828	)			225,074
Balance at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023		$	282,386			$	423,214

As of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company estimated the fair value of the conversion feature derivatives embedded in the convertible debentures based on assumptions used in the Black-Scholes valuation model. The key valuation assumptions used consists, in part, of the price of the Company's Common Stock, a risk-free interest rate based on the yield of a Treasury note and expected volatility of the Company's Common Stock all as of the measurement dates. The Company used the following assumptions to estimate fair value of the derivatives as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively:

		September 30, 2024			December 31, 2023
		Key			Key
		Assumptions			Assumptions
		for fair value			for fair value
		of conversions			of conversions
Risk free interest			3.98% - 5.09	%			4.64% - 5.40	%
Market price of share		$	0.02- 0.04			$	0.03- 0.05
Life of instrument in years			0.01				0.01
Volatility			161.5% - 226.9	%			142.45%-236.86	%
Dividend yield			0	%			0	%

When the Company changes its valuation inputs for measuring financial liabilities at fair value, either due to changes in current market conditions or other factors, it may need to transfer those liabilities to another level in the hierarchy based on the new inputs used. The Company recognizes these transfers at the end of the reporting period that the transfers occur. For the periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, there were no transfers of financial assets or financial liabilities between the hierarchy levels.

The $2,625,000of contingent consideration, of shares issuable to PointR shareholders which was recorded and associated with the PointR Merger, is also classified as Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company initially recorded the contingency based on a valuation conducted by a third-party valuation expert. The valuation was based on a probability of the completion of certain milestones by PointR for the shareholders to earn additional shares. The Company evaluated the probability of the earning of the milestones and concluded that the probability of achievement of the milestones had not changed, primarily due to the shifting of focus by the Company to develop AI technologies for the COVID-19 pandemic as well as other AI technologies. As such, the Company did not record any change to the valuation during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 or 2023, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share includes the effect of Common Stock equivalents (notes convertible into Common Stock, stock options and warrants) when, under either the treasury or if-converted method, such inclusion in the computation would be dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, no equivalent shares of the Common Stock were excluded as the company has a loss and addition of such stock equivalents in the computation would have been anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees, including employee stock options, in the statements of operations.

For stock options issued to employees and members of the Board of Directors (the "Board") for their services, the Company estimates the grant date fair value of each option using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management to make assumptions with respect to the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the Common Stock consistent with the expected life of the option, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend yields of the Common Stock. For awards subject to service-based vesting conditions, including those with a graded vesting schedule, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense equal to the grant date fair value of stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting term. Forfeitures are recorded as they are incurred as opposed to being estimated at the time of grant and revised.

For warrants issued in connection with fund raising activities, the Company estimates the grant date fair value of each warrant using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management to make assumptions with respect to the expected term of the warrant, the expected volatility of the Common Stock consistent with the expected life of the warrant, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend yields of the Common Stock. If the warrants are issued upon termination or cancellation of prior issued warrants, then the Company estimates the grant date fair value of the new warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model and evaluates whether the new warrants are deemed as equity instruments or liability instruments. If the warrants are deemed to be equity instruments, the Company records stock compensation expense and an addition to additional paid in capital. If, however, the warrants are deemed to be liability instruments, then the fair value is treated as a deemed dividend and credited to additional paid in capital.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operation to which the assets relate to the carrying amount. If the operation is determined to be unable to recover the carrying amount of its assets, then these assets are written down first, followed by other long-lived assets of the operation to fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending on the nature of the assets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, there were no impairment losses recognized for long-lived assets.

Intangible Assets

The Company records its intangible assets at cost in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. The Company reviews the intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis or if events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that they are impaired. These events could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, a decline in operating performance, competition, sale or disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors. If the review indicates the impairment, an impairment loss would be recorded for the difference of the value recorded and the new value. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, there were noimpairment losses recognized for intangible assets. When we sell or contribute properties to unconsolidated arrangements and retain a non-controlling ownership interest in such assets, we recognize the difference between the consideration received and the carrying amount of the asset sold or contributed.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired business over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least once annually, at the reporting unit level or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The goodwill impairment test is applied by performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the reporting unit. If, on the basis of qualitative factors, it is considered not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, further testing of goodwill for impairment would not be required. Otherwise, goodwill impairment is tested using a two-step approach.

The first step involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit's carrying amount is determined to be greater than the fair value, the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. The second step involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in step one. The implied fair value of the goodwill in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of the goodwill is less than the carrying value of the goodwill, an impairment loss equivalent to the difference is recorded. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded an impairment loss of approximately $3million on our goodwill. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded an impairment loss of approximately $0and $6.1million, respectively, based on the difference between the carrying value of our goodwill as against the market capitalization of the Company. For more information on goodwill and impairment, refer to Note 3 to these Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to the Company's Common Stock

We have generally issued derivative financial instruments, such as warrants, in connection with our equity offerings. We evaluate the terms of these derivative financial instruments in order to determine their accounting treatment in our financial statements. Key considerations include whether the financial instruments are freestanding and whether they contain conditional obligations. If the warrants are freestanding, do not contain conditional obligations and meet other classification criteria, we account for the warrants as an equity instrument. However, if the warrants contain conditional obligations, then we account for the warrants as a liability until the conditional obligations are met or are no longer relevant. Because no established market prices exist for the warrants that we issue in connection with our equity offerings, we must estimate the fair value of the warrants based on the price of our Common Stock as of December 31 each year, which is as inherently subjective as it is for stock options, and for similar reasons as noted in the stock-based compensation section above. For financial instruments which are accounted for as a liability, we report any changes in their estimated fair values as gains or losses in our Consolidated Statement of Income.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging".

ASC 815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as "The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument."

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with ASC 470-20 "Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options." Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying Common Stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Original issue discounts ("OID") under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying Common Stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

ASC 815-40 "Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity" provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity's control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

Variable Interest Entity (VIE) Accounting

The Company evaluates its ownership, contractual relationships and other interests in entities to determine the nature and extent of the interests, whether such interests are variable interests and whether the entities are VIEs in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidations. These evaluations can be complex and involve Management judgment as well as the use of estimates and assumptions based on available historical information, among other factors. Based on these evaluations, if the Company determines that it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the entity is consolidated into the financial statements. At September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company identified EdgePoint to be the Company's sole VIE. At September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company's ownership percentage of EdgePoint was 29% and 29%, respectively. The VIE's net assets were less than $0.1million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Investments - Equity Method

The Company accounts for equity method investments at cost, adjusted for the Company's share of the investee's earnings or losses, which are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company periodically reviews the investments for other than temporary declines in fair value below cost and more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Investment in GMP Bio represents the investment into equity securities for which the Company elected the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825-10-15 and subsequent fair value changes in the GMP Bio shares shall be included in the result from other income. Refer to Note 6 to these Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Joint Venture agreement

We have equity interest in unconsolidated arrangement that is primarily engaged in the business of drug discovery, development, and commercialization, including but not limited to development and commercialization of TGF-beta therapeutics as well as establishing and operating contract development and manufacturing organization ("CDMO") facilities and capabilities. The Company first reviews the arrangement to determine if it meets the definition of an accounting joint venture pursuant to ASC 323-10-20. In order to meet the definition of a joint venture, the arrangement must have all of the following characteristics, (i) the arrangement is organized within a separate legal entity, (ii) the entity is under the joint control of the venturers, (iii) the venturers must be able to exercise joint control through their equity investments, (iv) the qualitative characteristics of the entity, including its purpose and design must be consistent with the definition of a joint venture.

We consolidate arrangements that are considered to be VIEs where we are the primary beneficiary. We analyze our investments in joint ventures to determine if the joint venture is considered a VIE and would require consolidation. We (i) evaluate the sufficiency of the total equity investment at risk, (ii) review the voting rights and decision-making authority of the equity investment holders as a group and whether there are limited partners (or similar owning entities) that lack substantive participating or kick out rights, guaranteed returns, protection against losses, or capping of residual returns within the group and (iii) establish whether activities within the venture are on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights in making this VIE determination.

To the extent that we own interests in a VIE and we (i) have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) have the obligation or rights to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE, then we would be determined to be the primary beneficiary and would consolidate the VIE. To the extent that we own interests in a VIE, then at each reporting period, we re-assess our conclusions as to which, if any, party within the VIE is considered the primary beneficiary.

To the extent that our arrangements do not qualify as VIEs, they are consolidated if we control them through majority ownership interests or if we are the managing entity (general partner or managing member) and our partner does not have substantive participating rights. Control is further demonstrated by our ability to unilaterally make significant operating decisions, refinance debt, and sell the assets of the joint venture without the consent of the non-managing entity and the inability of the non-managing entity to remove us from our role as the managing entity.

We use the equity method of accounting for those arrangements where we exercise significant influence but do not have control. Under the equity method of accounting, our investment in each arrangement is included on our consolidated balance sheet; however, the assets and liabilities of the joint ventures for which we use the equity method are not included on our consolidated balance sheet.

When we sell or contribute properties to unconsolidated arrangements and retain a non-controlling ownership interest in such assets, we recognize the difference between the consideration received and the carrying amount of the asset sold or contributed when its derecognition criteria are met. The equity method investment we retain in such partial sale transactions is noncash consideration and is measured at fair value. As a result, the accounting for a partial sale will result in the recognition of a full gain or loss.

When circumstances indicate there may have been a reduction in the value of an equity investment, we evaluate whether the loss in value is other than temporary. If we conclude it is other than temporary, we recognize an impairment charge to reflect the equity investment at fair value.

The Company elected the fair value option under the fair value option Subsection of Section 825-10-15 to account for its equity-method investment as the Company believes that the fair value option is most appropriate for a company in the biotechnology industry, The fair value option is more appropriate for companies that are involved in extensive and usually very expensive research and development efforts, which are not appropriately reflected in the market value or reflective of the true value of the development activities of the company.

Embedded debt costs in convertible debt instruments

In August 2020, the FASB issued "ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)" ("ASU 2020-06") which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain accounting models which separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. Either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition was permissible for the adoption of this standard. Update No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption was permitted no earlier than the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2023 and has removed the effects of any embedded conversion features from certain of our convertible instruments as of that date.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).

Under Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue when its customers obtain control of the promised good or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five-step: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company identifies the performance obligation(s) in the contract by assessing whether the goods or services promised within each contract are distinct. The Company then recognizes revenue for the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company anticipates generating revenues from rendering services to other third-party customers for the development of certain drug products and/or in connection with certain out-licensing agreements. In the case of services rendered for development of the drugs, revenue is recognized upon the achievement of the performance obligations or over time on a straight-line basis over the extended service period. In the case of out-licensing contracts, the Company records revenues either upon achievement of certain pre-defined milestones, when there is no obligation of the Company achieve any performance obligations in connection with the said pre-defined milestones, or upon achievement of the performance obligations if the milestones require the Company to provide the performance obligations.

The Company occasionally collects advance payments from customers toward commitments to provide services or performance obligations, in which case the advance payment is recorded as a liability until the obligations are fulfilled and revenue is recognized.

Research & Development Costs

In accordance with ASC 730-10-25 "Research and Development", research and development costs are charged to expense as and when incurred.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued "ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)" ("ASU 2020-06") which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments.

NOTE 3 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL

Goodwill from 2019 Reverse Merger with Oncotelic and PointR

The Company completed the reverse merger with Oncotelic Inc. ("Merger") in April 2019. The Company completed the merger with PointR Data Inc ("PointR Merger") in November 2019. For more details on the two mergers, refer to our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed by the Company on April 15, 2021.

The Oncotelic merger gave rise to Goodwill of approximately $4.9million. Upon the non-financial sale of our asset as contribution to our equity method investment, we derecognized the balance of the carrying value of our goodwill of approximately $4.9million from the Oncotelic Merger in accordance with our policy and authoritative accounting guidance.

Further, we added goodwill of $16,182,456upon the completion of the Merger with PointR.

We have one operating segment and reporting unit. Accordingly, our review of goodwill impairment indicators was performed at the entity-wide level. In performing our annual impairment assessment, we determined if we should qualitatively assess whether it was more likely than not the fair value of goodwill was less than its carrying amount (the qualitative impairment test). The factors we considered in the assessment included our market capitalization, general macroeconomic conditions, conditions specific to the industry and market and whether there had been sustained declines in our share price. If we concluded, it was more likely than not, the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount, or elected not to use the qualitative impairment test, a quantitative impairment test would be performed.

We used our market capitalization as an indicator of fair value. While we believe the fair value measurement need not be based solely on the quoted market price of an individual share of our Common Stock, and that we also could consider the impact of a control premium in measuring the fair value of its reporting unit. In the absence of any other valuation metrics, the Company believed using a control premium utilized would not be appropriate under the current circumstances. We also considered some other market comparables' trends in our stock price as well as the industry over a period of two successive quarters and prospective quarter to evaluate whether the fair value of our reporting unit was greater than our carrying amount. As such, we performed a quantitative impairment assessment of goodwill for our single reporting unit at the end of 2023, due to a sustained decline in our market capitalization and an increase in negative economic outlook for biotech markets We estimated and reconciled the fair value of our reporting unit utilizing our market capitalization based on the stock price of our Common Stock as of December 31, 2023. Before completing our goodwill impairment test, we first tested our indefinite-lived intangible asset then our remaining long-lived assets for impairment. We concluded our indefinite-lived intangible assets were not impaired. Based on the market capitalization, we further concluded the fair value of our single reporting unit was less than its carrying value and therefore recognized an impairment charge of $6.1million during the year ended December 31, 2023. The calculation of the impairment charge included substantial fact-based determinations and estimates. The Company evaluated if it needed to record any additional goodwill impairment as of September 30, 2024, based solely on the market capitalization of the Company and concluded that an additional impairment of approximately $3.2million was required to be recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

A summary of our goodwill as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is shown below:

		September 30, 2024			December 31, 2023
Balance at January 1, 2024 and 2023		$	5,988,230			$	12,071,376
Less: Goodwill impairment due to market capitalization			(3,200,000	)			(6,083,146	)
Balance at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023		$	2,788,230			$	5,988,230

In general, the goodwill is tested on an annual impairment date of December 31, unless we observe any further deterioration in our market capitalization in any interim periods, in which case we may, depending on the materiality of the impairment, record an impairment at the end of other reporting periods, as we did during the course of the year ended December 31, 2023.

In-Process Research & Development ("IPR&D") Summary

The IPR&D assets were acquired in the PointR Merger during the year ended December 31, 2019. Since January 2021, the Company has determined that the IPR&D should be reported as an indefinitely lived asset and therefore will evaluate, on an annual basis, for any impairment on the IPR&D and will record an impairment if identified. The balance of IPR&D as of September 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, was $1,101,760. For more information on the IPR&D, please refer to our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES

The Company had gross deferred tax assets, which primarily relate to net operating loss carryforwards. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had gross federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, which are available to offset future taxable income, if any. The Company recorded a valuation allowance in the full amount of its net deferred tax assets since realization of such tax benefits has been determined by our management to be less likely than not. Information on our deferred tax assets and liabilities can be found in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

Portions of these carryforwards will expire through 2038, if not otherwise utilized. The Company's utilization of net operating loss carryforwards could be subject to an annual limitation. as a result of certain past or future events, such as stock sales or other equity events constituting a "change in ownership" under the provisions of Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The annual limitations could result in the expiration of net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits before they can be utilized. We have not performed a formal analysis, but we believe our ability to use such net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards will be subject to annual limitations, due to change of ownership control provisions under Section 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, which would significantly impact our ability to realize these deferred tax assets.

PointR Merger Contingent Consideration

The total purchase price in the PointR Merger of $17,831,427represented the consideration transferred from the Company and was calculated based on the number of shares of Common Stock plus the preferred shares outstanding but convertible into Common Stock outstanding at the date of the PointR Merger and included $2,625,000of contingent consideration of shares issuable to PointR shareholders, which could increase to $15million of contingent consideration, upon achievement of certain milestones. For more information on the PointR Merger Contingent Consideration, 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

Third Party Service Provider Claim

The Company had disputed a judgement of $20,000for a non-payment to a third service provider. The Company considered the claim to be immaterial to the financial position of the Company. The Company had filed a counter claim on the third-party service provider as the Company believed the claim to be false and malicious to the interests of the Company. The Honorable Court overruled the previous judgement and the Company had sued the third-party service provider. In March 2024, the Honorable Court's decision was in favor of the Company due to the reasons described above and the matter has been dismissed. The third party service provider had filed an appeal with the Honorable Court, and the Honorable Court dismissed their appeal.

Other claims

From time to time, the Company may become involved in certain claims arising in the ordinary course of business. One of the Company's ex-employees has made a claim against the Company. The Company is evaluating the validity of the claim, as the Company believes that such claim has limited merits and is hopeful to attain a positive outcome for such claim. Since the Company is still evaluating the claim, we are unable to quantify the amount such claim would be settled at, if at all settled.

NOTE 15 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company performed an evaluation of subsequent events through November 19, 2024, the date on which the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. The Company did not identify any material events requiring adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Corporate History

Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. ("Oncotelic"), was formed in the State of New York in 1988 as OXiGENE, Inc., was reincorporated in the State of Delaware in 1992, and changed its name to Mateon Therapeutics, Inc. in 2016, and Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. in November 2020. Oncotelic conducts business activities through Oncotelic and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Oncotelic, Inc., a Delaware corporation, PointR Data, Inc. ("PointR"), a Delaware corporation, Pet2DAO Inc., a Delaware corporation and EdgePoint AI, Inc. ("Edgepoint"), a Delaware Corporation for which there are non-controlling interests, (Oncotelic, Oncotelic Inc., PointR, Pet2DAO and Edgepoint are collectively called the "Company" or "We"). The Company completed a reverse merger with Oncotelic Inc in April 2019, a merger with PointR in November 2019 and formed a subsidiary Edgepoint in February 2020. For more information on these mergers, 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

Company Overview

We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing drugs for the treatment of cancer. Our goal is to advance our drug candidates into late-stage pivotal clinical trials and either sell marketing rights to a larger pharmaceutical company or seek FDA approval ourselves.

The Company is currently developing OT-101, through its joint venture ("JV") with Dragon Overseas Capital Limited ("Dragon") and GMP Biotechnology Limited ("GMP Bio"), both affiliates of Golden Mountain Partners ("GMP"), for various cancers and COVID-19, Artemisinin for COVID-19 and AI technologies for manufacturing, COVID-19 and other AI technologies. The Company is also independently planning to develop OT-101 for certain animal health indications and contemplating using crypto currencies for that platform. The Company has acquired apomorphine for Parkinson's Disease, erectile dysfunction and female sexual dysfunction. In addition, the Company is evaluating the further development of its product candidates OXi4503 as a treatment for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes and CA4P in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor for the treatment of advanced metastatic melanoma.

In 2020, the Company had entered into an agreement and supplemental agreement with GMP for a total of $1.2 million to render services for the development of OT-101 for COVID-19 and such amount was recorded as revenue upon completion of all performance obligations under the agreement. The Company secured various financings from GMP between 2020 and early 2022. For information on the GMP financings, please refer to GMP Note purchase agreements and unsecured notes below.

For more information on the GMP debt financing and the JV, refer to Notes 5 and 6 of the unaudited Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In November 2022, the Company formed a Decentralized autonomous organization ("DAO") entity, Pet2DAO, Inc. ("Pet2DAO"), as a wholly owned subsidiary. For more information on Pet2DAO, refer to our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

Since April 2019, we have been operating under significant capital constraints, which has curtailed our ability to achieve meaningful progress in either of the Company's two clinical programs - one of which is developing OXi4503 as a treatment for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes and the other of which is developing CA4P in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor for the treatment of advanced metastatic melanoma. We believe that the merger of Oncotelic and Oncotelic Inc. creates a combined company that has potential to generate shareholder value through a promising pipeline of next generation immunotherapies targeting several significant cancer markets where there is a lack of therapeutic options and lack of an effective immunotherapy protocol.

Forever Prosperity (previously GMP) Note purchase agreements and unsecured notes

Between June 2020 and January 2022, the Company entered into various purchase agreements and promissory notes with GMP, cumulatively totaling $4.5 million. Such notes were assigned to Forever Prosperity, LLC, an affiliated entity of GMP.

For more information on the GMP debt financing, refer to Note 5 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Joint Venture

In March 2022, the Company entered into (i) a joint venture (the "JV") agreement with Dragon and GMP Bio, both affiliates of GMP, (and the Company, Dragon and GMP Bio are collectively called the "Parties") (the "JVA"), (ii) a license agreement for rights to OT-101 (the "US License Agreement") for the territory within the United States of America (the "US") with Sapu Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of GMP Bio and (iii) a license agreement for rights to OT-101 for the rest of the world with GMP Bio (the "Ex-US Rights Agreement", and the US License Agreement and the Ex-US License Agreement are collectively called the "Agreements"). For more information on the JV, JVA, and Agreements, refer to our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024.

In addition to the development of OT-101, GMP Bio has been developing a new nanomedicine portfolio. The development of this platform is expected to move through filings with the US FDA, and other regulatory bodies outside of the United States, moving into clinical programs with the ultimate goal of commercializing the products, assuming a successful outcome for the products. While the Company believes that its expectations are reasonable and that the product development for the nanomedicine platform by GMP Bio will be successful, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, success of the development or clinical trials, future performance or the ultimate success of GMP Bio' endeavors related to the success of its efforts ultimately, resulting in any change in valuation for the Company on account of its ownership in GMP Bio.

This was to allow for both Companies to complete due diligence as well as agree and finalize the definitive agreements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expense during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time we make such estimates. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from our estimates, judgments and assumptions. We periodically review our estimates in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. The effects of material revisions in estimates are reflected in the financial statements prospectively from the date of the change in estimate. Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

We define our critical accounting policies as those accounting principles that require us to make subjective estimates and judgments about matters that are uncertain and are likely to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the specific manner in which we apply those principles. We believe the critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our financial statements that require significant estimates and judgments are the following:

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operation to which the assets relate to the carrying amount. If the operation is determined to be unable to recover the carrying amount of its assets, then these assets are written down first, followed by other long-lived assets of the operation to fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending on the nature of the assets.

Intangible Assets

The Company records its intangible assets at cost in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. The Company reviews the intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis or if events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that they are impaired. These events could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, a decline in operating performance, competition, sale or disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired business over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least once annually, at the reporting unit level or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The goodwill impairment test is applied by performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the reporting unit. If, on the basis of qualitative factors, it is considered not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, further testing of goodwill for impairment would not be required. Otherwise, goodwill impairment is tested using a two-step approach.

The first step involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit's carrying amount is determined to be greater than the fair value, the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. The second step involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as determined in step one. The implied fair value of the goodwill in this step is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value of the goodwill is less than the carrying value of the goodwill, an impairment loss equivalent to the difference is recorded.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging".

ASC 815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards.

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with ASC 470-20 "Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options." Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Original issue discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

ASC 815-40 "Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity" provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity's control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to the Company's Common Stock

We have generally issued derivative financial instruments, such as warrants, in connection with our equity offerings. We evaluate the terms of these derivative financial instruments in order to determine their accounting treatment in our financial statements. Key considerations include whether the financial instruments are freestanding and whether they contain conditional obligations. If the warrants are freestanding, do not contain conditional obligations and meet other classification criteria, we account for the warrants as an equity instrument. However, if the warrants contain conditional obligations, then we account for the warrants as a liability until the conditional obligations are met or are no longer relevant. Because no established market prices exist for the warrants that we issue in connection with our equity offerings, we must estimate the fair value of the warrants, which is as inherently subjective as it is for stock options, and for similar reasons as noted in the stock-based compensation section above. For financial instruments which are accounted for as a liability, we report any changes in their estimated fair values as gains or losses in our Consolidated Statement of Income.

Variable Interest Entity (VIE) Accounting

We evaluate our ownership, contractual relationships and other interests in entities to determine the nature and extent of the interests, whether such interests are variable interests and whether the entities are VIEs in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidations. These evaluations can be complex and involve Management judgment as well as the use of estimates and assumptions based on available historical information, among other factors. Based on these evaluations, if the Company determines that it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the entity is consolidated into the financial statements.

Investments - Equity Method

The Company accounts for equity method investments at cost, adjusted for the Company's share of the investee's earnings or losses, which are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company periodically reviews the investments for other than temporary declines in fair value below cost and more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.

The Investment in GMP Bio represents the investment into equity securities for which the Company elected the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825-10-15 and subsequent fair value changes in the GMP Bio shares are included in the result from continuing operations. Refer to Note 6 to these Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Joint Venture agreement

We have equity interest in unconsolidated arrangement that is primarily engaged in the business of drug discovery, development, and commercialization, including but not limited to development and commercialization of TGF-beta therapeutics as well as establishing and operating contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) facilities and capabilities. The Company first review the arrangement to determine if it meets the definition of an accounting joint venture pursuant to ASC 323-10-20. In order to meet the definition of a joint venture, the arrangement must have all of the following characteristics, (i) the arrangement is organized within a separate legal entity, (ii) the entity is under the joint control of the venturers, (iii) the venturers must be able to exercise joint control through their equity investments, (iv) the qualitative characteristics of the entity, including its purpose and design must be consistent with the definition of a joint venture

We consolidate arrangements that are considered to be VIEs where we are the primary beneficiary. We analyze our investments in joint ventures to determine if the joint venture is considered a VIE and would require consolidation. We (i) evaluate the sufficiency of the total equity investment at risk, (ii) review the voting rights and decision-making authority of the equity investment holders as a group and whether there are limited partners (or similar owning entities) that lack substantive participating or kick out rights, guaranteed returns, protection against losses, or capping of residual returns within the group and (iii) establish whether activities within the venture are on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights in making this VIE determination.

To the extent that we own interests in a VIE and we (i) have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) have the obligation or rights to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE, then we would be determined to be the primary beneficiary and would consolidate the VIE. To the extent that we own interests in a VIE, then at each reporting period, we re-assess our conclusions as to which, if any, party within the VIE is considered the primary beneficiary.

To the extent that our arrangements do not qualify as VIEs, they are consolidated if we control them through majority ownership interests or if we are the managing entity (general partner or managing member) and our partner does not have substantive participating rights. Control is further demonstrated by our ability to unilaterally make significant operating decisions, refinance debt, and sell the assets of the joint venture without the consent of the non-managing entity and the inability of the non-managing entity to remove us from our role as the managing entity.

We use the equity method of accounting for those arrangements where we exercise significant influence but do not have control. Under the equity method of accounting, our investment in each arrangement is included on our consolidated balance sheet; however, the assets and liabilities of the joint ventures for which we use the equity method are not included on our consolidated balance sheet.

When we sell or contribute properties to unconsolidated arrangements and retain a non-controlling ownership interest in such assets, we recognize the difference between the consideration received and the carrying amount of the asset sold or contributed when its derecognition criteria are met. The equity method investment we retain in such partial sale transactions is noncash consideration and is measured at fair value. As a result, the accounting for a partial sale will result in the recognition of a full gain or loss.

When circumstances indicate there may have been a reduction in the value of an equity investment, we evaluate whether the loss in value is other than temporary. If we conclude it is other than temporary, we recognize an impairment charge to reflect the equity investment at fair value.

The Company elected the fair value option under the fair value option Subsection of Section 825-10-15 to account for its equity-method investment.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense consist of costs we incur for the development of our investigational drugs and, to a lesser extent, for preclinical research activities. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expense include clinical trial costs, salaries and benefits of employees, including associated stock-based compensation, payments to clinical investigators, drug manufacturing costs, laboratory supplies and facility costs. Clinical trial costs are a significant component of our research and development expense, and these can be difficult to accurately estimate. Included in clinical trial costs are fees paid to other entities that conduct certain research and development activities on our behalf, such as clinical research organizations, or CROs. We estimate clinical trial expense based on the services performed pursuant to contracts with research institutions such as CROs and the actual clinical investigators. These estimates are based on actual time and expenses incurred by the CRO and the clinical investigators. Also included in clinical trial expense are costs based on the level of patient enrollment into the clinical trial and the actual services performed under the related clinical trial agreement. Changes in clinical trial assumptions, such as the length of time estimated to enroll all patients, rate of screening failures, patient drop-out rates, number and nature of adverse event reports and the total number of patients enrolled can impact the average and expected cost per patient and the overall cost of the clinical trial. Based on patient enrollment reports and services provided, we may periodically adjust estimates for the clinical trial costs. If we do not identify costs that we have begun to incur or if we underestimate or overestimate the level of services performed, the length of time for these services or the costs of these services, our actual expenses could differ from our estimates.

Share-Based Compensation

We record the estimated fair value of all share-based payments issued to employees and other service providers. Our share-based payments consist primarily of stock options. The valuation of stock options is an inherently subjective process, since market values are not available for any stock options in our equity securities. Market values are also not available on long-term, non-transferable stock options in other equity securities. With no market values on options to trade in our common stock and no comparable market values on any long-term non-transferable stock options, the process of valuing our stock options is even more uncertain and subjective. Accordingly, we use a Black-Scholes option pricing model to derive an estimated fair value of the stock options which we issue. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires certain input assumptions, including the expected term of the options and the expected volatility of our common stock. Changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on the estimated fair value that we record for share-based payments that we issue. We determine the term of the options based on the simplified method, which averages the vesting period and the contractual life of the stock option. We determine the expected volatility based on the historical volatility of our common stock over a period commensurate with the option's expected term. The Black-Scholes option pricing model also requires assumptions for risk-free interest rates and the expected dividend yield of our common stock, but we feel that these values are more objective and note that changes in these values do not have a significant impact on the estimated value of the options when compared to the volatility and term assumptions.

We are also required to estimate the level of award forfeitures expected to occur and record compensation expense only for those awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Accordingly, we perform a historical analysis of option awards that are forfeited prior to vesting, and record total stock option expense that reflects this estimated forfeiture rate.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Results of Operations for the three Months Ended September 30, 2024 to the three Months Ended September, 2023

A comparison of the Company's operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, is as follows.

Net Income (Loss)

We recorded a net loss of approximately $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to net loss of approximately $41 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The primary difference in net loss, of approximately $3.4 million, between the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period of 2023 was primarily due to higher goodwill impairment of approximately $3.2 million, higher other operating expenses of approximately $30 thousand, higher change in value of derivatives on debt of approximately $0.2 million, and offset by lower loss on debt conversion of approximately $0.1 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development ("R&D") expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 were lower by approximately $21 thousand, primarily due to other operational expenses related to OT-101 being borne by the JV.

As previously disclosed, and as a result of our JV, we expect our R&D expense to decrease for the remainder of the year 2024, specifically for activities related to OT-101, including the initiation of new clinical trials. Any other development expenses will be subject to our continuing ability to secure sufficient funding to continue planned operations.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses increased by approximately $46 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to higher legal and professional expenses of approximately $140 thousand, offset by lower other expenses by approximately $94 thousand.

As previously disclosed and as a result of our JV, we expect our G&A activities to remain steady or marginally increase for the remainder of 2024. Any other G&A expenses will be subject to our continuing ability to secure sufficient funding to continue planned operations.

Goodwill Impairment

We recorded goodwill impairment of $3.2 million, on the approximately $12.0 million goodwill which we recorded upon our acquisition of PointR, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to no impairment during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

During the third quarter of 2024, we observed a decline of our stock price, the market capitalization of our Company, and the general economic conditions, which adversely impacted the majority of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. These were indicative of a potential impairment of our goodwill. While we evaluated and concluded that the AI technologies related to the PointR acquisition are not adversely impacted as the Company continues to develop other AI technologies, the significant reduction of our market capitalization required us to record an impairment on the goodwill to the extent of the difference between the net assets of the Company over the fair value, solely based on the market capitalization, and consistently with the methodology we used during the prior periods.

Interest Expense, Net

We recorded interest expense, including amortization of debt costs, of approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to similar expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily in connection with debt raised from convertible notes and the JH Darbie Financing, March 2022 and May/June 202 financing. For more information on debt raised from convertible notes and the JH Darbie Financing, see Note 5 and Note 7 of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report.

Change in Value of Derivatives

During the three months ended September, 2024, we recorded approximately $0.1 million change in value upon conversion of certain debt owed on the convertible promissory notes issued to our CEO and a bridge investor (collectively, the "Convertible Notes"). The Company recorded approximately $0.3 million change during the same period in 2023. The Convertible Notes became convertible 180 days after issuance, and as such the CEO and the bridge investor had the ability to convert that debt into equity at a variable conversion price, giving rise to a derivative feature within the debt instrument resulting in the recording of a derivative liability and change in value of the derivative. For more information on value of derivatives, refer to the Note 5 of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report.

Comparison of the Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

A comparison of the Company's operating results for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, is as follows.

Net Income

We recorded a net loss of approximately $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to a net loss of approximately $7.4 million for the same period ended September 30, 2023. The difference in net loss, of approximately $3.3 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period of 2023, was primarily due to lower goodwill impairment of approximately $2.8 million, lower operating expense of approximately $0.2 million, lower interest cost of approximately $0.2 million, lower change in value of derivatives on debt of approximately $0.2 million, offset by lower reimbursement of expenses by a related party of approximately $50 thousand and lower service revenue of approximately $70 thousand, compared to the same period in 2024.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development ("R&D") expenses decreased by approximately $48 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to reduced operational costs. As a result of our JV with Dragon and GMP Bio, the JV absorbed most of the compensation costs as well as some of the operational costs.

As a result of our JV, we expect our R&D expense to decrease for the remainder of the year 2024, specifically for activities related to OT-101, including the initiation of new clinical trials. Any other development expenses will be subject to our continuing ability to secure sufficient funding to continue planned operations.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses decreased by approximately $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to lower operational costs.

As a result of our JV, we expect our G&A activities to remain steady or marginally increase for the remainder of 2024. Any other G&A expenses will be subject to our continuing ability to secure sufficient funding to continue planned operations.

Goodwill Impairment

We recorded goodwill impairment of $3.2 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to goodwill impairment of approximately $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, on the approximately $12.0 million goodwill which we recorded upon our acquisition of PointR.

During the third quarter of 2024, we observed a further decline of our stock price, the market capitalization of our Company, and the general economic conditions, which adversely impacted the majority of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. These were indicative of a potential impairment of our goodwill. While we evaluated and concluded that the AI technologies related to the PointR acquisition are not adversely impacted as the Company continues to develop other AI technologies, the significant reduction of our market capitalization required us to record an impairment on the goodwill to the extent of the difference between the net assets of the Company over the fair value, solely based on the market capitalization, and consistently with the methodology we used during the prior periods.

Interest Expense, Net

We recorded interest expense, including amortization of debt costs, of approximately $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily in connection with debt raised from convertible notes, JH Darbie Financing, March 2022 and May/June 2022 Financing. Interest expense was lower for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period of 2023 due to some of the outstanding loans being partially or fully retired. For more information on debt raised from convertible notes and the JH Darbie Financing, see Note 5 and Note 7 of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report.

Reimbursement of expenses

The Company was reimbursed $23 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $72 thousand, by Autotelic Inc. a related party, on behalf of our JV.

Change in Value of Derivatives

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded approximately $0.1 million gain in value upon conversion of the debt to liabilities as a derivative as well as new debt converting to liabilities on the Convertible Notes as compared to approximately $0.3 million gain during the same period of 2023. The Convertible Notes became convertible 180 days after issuance, and as such Peak One, TFK, the CEO and the bridge investor had the ability to convert that debt into equity at: (i) the variable conversion price of 65% of the Company's lowest traded price after the first 180 days, or (ii) at the lower of $0.10 per share or 55% of the Company's traded stock price under certain circumstances. This gave rise to a derivative feature within the debt instrument which resulted in the recording of a derivative liability and change in value of the derivative.

Loss on Conversion of Debt

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded a loss of $0.1 million on conversion of debt. related to the difference in fair value to the price at which the debt was converted, compared to a $0.1 million loss on conversion of debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Cash, including restricted cash of $20		$	169			$	190
Working capital			(16,118	)			(16,233	)
Stockholders' Equity			8,131				11,611

The Company has experienced net losses every year since inception and as of September 30, 2024 had an accumulated deficit of approximately $37.4 million. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $0.2 million in cash, and current liabilities of approximately $16.1 million. Of the approximately $16.1 million in current liabilities, of which approximately $1.3 million are net assumed liabilities of the Company as part of the Oncotelic Inc. reverse merger, $4.7 million was debt for conducting clinical trials for OT-101 from GMP and $2.6 million related to contingent liability to issue Common Stock of the Company to PointR shareholders upon achievement of certain milestones. The Company does not expect to generate any meaningful revenue from product sales or licensing in the near future and expects to incur additional operating losses over the next several years, primarily as a result of the Company's plans to continue clinical trials for its investigational drugs. Since the Company successfully formed the joint venture with Dragon Overseas and GMP Bio, all costs associated with developing the assets licensed to the JV and a substantial portion of the G&A expenses will shift over to the JV and hence the Company may be able to reduce its expenses. The Company's limited capital resources, history of recurring losses and uncertainties as to whether the Company's operations will become profitable raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements contained in this report do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets or classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The principal source of the Company's working capital deficit to date has been the issuance of convertible notes, a substantial part of which has been provided by officers and certain insiders, and sale of equity under the EPA with Peak One. The Company will need to raise additional capital in order to fund its operations and continue development of product candidates. The Company is evaluating the options to further the development of the Company's product candidates, AL-101, Artemisinin for COVID-19, developing AI technologies to support the COVID-19 therapies; in addition to evaluating the development pathway of its product candidates; OXi4503 and/or CA4P. The Company is also independently planning to develop OT-101 for certain animal health indications and contemplating using crypto currencies for that platform.

The Company anticipates raising substantial additional capital through the sale of equity securities and/or debt, but no other financing arrangements are in place at this time.

If the Company is unable to access additional funds when needed, it may not be able to continue the development of these investigational drugs and the Company could be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its development programs and operations. Any additional equity financing, if available, would be dilutive to the current stockholders and may not be available on favorable terms. Additional debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and could also be dilutive. The Company's ability to access capital is not assured and, if access is not achieved on a timely basis, would materially harm the Company's financial condition, the value of its Common Stock and its business prospects.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This was due to the net loss of approximately $4.1 million, and primarily offset by approximately $3.2 million of amortization of goodwill, approximately $88 thousand from loss on conversion of debt, approximately $0.1 million of change in fair value of derivative, approximately $0.1 million due to amortization of debt discounts and deferred financing costs and changes in operating assets and liabilities of approximately $0.2 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. This was due to the net loss of approximately $7.4 million, primarily offset by non-cash goodwill impairment of approximately $6.1 million, non-cash loss on debt conversion of approximately $0.1 million, change in pair value of derivatives of approximately $21,000 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of approximately $0.3 million.

Financing Activities

For the nine months ended September 30,2024, net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $0.6 million, primarily due to receipt of a short term loan from a related party.

For the nine months ended September 30,2023, net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $1.0 million, primarily due to short term loans and convertible debt of approximately $1.1 million, offset by repayments to one PPM debt holder and short term loans of approximately $0.1 million

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Effects of Inflation

We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, revenues or operating results during the periods presented.

Contractual Obligations

Our current drug development programs are based on a series of compounds called combretastatins, which we have exclusively licensed from Arizona State University, or ASU. If our current drug candidates are approved, we will be required to pay low to mid-single-digit royalties on future net sales of products associated with the ASU patent rights until these patent rights expire.

We also have an exclusive license from Bristol-Myers Squibb, or BMS, for certain patent rights to particular combretastatins, including CA4P. If CA4P is approved, we will be required to pay low-single-digit royalties on future net sales of products associated with the BMS patent rights until these patent rights expire.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our cash is maintained in U.S. dollar accounts. We have adopted a policy for the cash that we hold, and also for any cash equivalents and investments that we may hold, the primary objective of which is to preserve principal, while also maintaining liquidity to meet our operating needs and maximize yields to the extent possible. Although our investments can be subject to credit risk, we follow procedures to limit the amount of credit exposure in any single issue, issuer or type of investment. Our investments are also subject to interest rate risk and would be likely to decrease in value if market interest rates increase. However, due to the generally conservative nature of our investments and relatively short duration, we believe that interest rate risk is mitigated.

Although we may from time-to-time manufacture drugs and conduct preclinical or clinical trials outside of the United States, we believe our exposure to foreign currency risk to be immaterial.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures 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. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and our Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") conducted an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and our CFO each concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and our CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2024 based on the framework established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2023 was not effective as a result of certain material weaknesses.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The ineffectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting was due to the following material weaknesses which are observed in many small companies with a small number of accounting and financial reporting staff:

●	Lack of formal policies and procedures;
●	Lack of a functioning audit committee and independent directors on the Company's board of directors to oversee financial reporting responsibilities;
●	Inadequate or lack of segregation of duties;
●	Lack of dedicated resources and experienced personnel to design and implement internal control procedures to support financial reporting objectives;
●	Lack of qualified accounting personnel to prepare and report financial information in accordance with GAAP; and
●	Lack of risk assessment procedures on internal controls to detect financial reporting risks on a timely manner.

Management's Plan to Remediate the Material Weaknesses

Management has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. The remediation actions planned include:

●	Continue to search for, evaluate and recruit qualified independent outside directors;
●	Hire qualified accounting personnel to prepare and report financial information in accordance with GAAP;
●	Identify gaps in our skills base and the expertise of our staff required to meet the financial reporting requirements of a public company; and
●	Continue to develop policies and procedures on internal control over financial reporting and monitor the effectiveness of operations on existing controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we continued to execute upon our planned remediation actions which are all intended to strengthen our overall control environment. While we have made progress in our planned remediation efforts and we expect the Company to complete its planned execution of internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2023, however, our ability to do so would greatly depend on our ability to obtain financial and other resources to complete the remediation.

We are committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment and believe that these remediation efforts will represent significant improvements in our control environment. Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the relevance of our risk-based approach and the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company had disputed a judgement of $20,000 for a non-payment to a third service provider. The Company considered the claim to be immaterial to the financial position of the Company. The Company had filed a counter claim on the third-party service provider as the Company believed the claim to be false and malicious to the interests of the Company. The Honorable Court overruled the previous judgement and the Company had sued the third-party service provider. In March 2024, the Honorable Court's decision was in favor of the Company due to the reasons described above and the matter has been dismissed. The third party service provider had filed an appeal with the Honorable Court, and the Honorable Court dismissed their appeal.

Other claims

One of the Company's ex-employees has made a breach of employment contract claim against the Company. The Company and its legal counsel are evaluating the validity of the claim, as the Company believes that such claim has limited merits and is hopeful to attain a positive outcome for such claim. Since the Company and its legal counsel are still evaluating the claim, we are unable to quantify the amount such claim would be settled at, if at all settled.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Please see the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on April 12, 2024 and other SEC filings. The risks described below and in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

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

In February 2024, Blue Lake partially converted $35,000 of their debt, legal fees and accrued interest. In connection with the partial Note conversion, the Company issued 500,000 shares of Common Stock to Blue Lake.

In May 2024, Blue Lake converted the balance of their $531,000 debt (June 2022 note) , inclusive of accrued interest and penalty, into 7,605,760 shares of Common Stock of the Company.
