OFFERING CIRCULAR SUMMARY

 

This summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this Offering Circular. This summary is not complete and does not contain all the information that you should consider before deciding whether to invest in our common stock. You should carefully read the entire Offering Circular, including the risks associated with an investment in the Company’s securities discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of this Offering Circular, before making an investment decision. Some of the statements in this Offering Circular are forward looking- statements. See the section entitled “Statement Regarding Forward- Looking Statements.”

 

Overview

 

Vivos Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is a radiation oncology medical device company engaged in the development of its yttrium-90 based brachytherapy device, RadioGel™, for the treatment of non-resectable tumors. A prominent team of radiochemists, scientists and engineers, collaborating with strategic partners, including national laboratories, universities and private corporations, lead the Company’s development efforts. The Company’s overall vision is to globally empower physicians, medical researchers and patients by providing them with new isotope technologies that offer safe and effective treatments for cancer.

 

The Offering

 

The Company’s stock offering under Regulation A+ was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 3, 2020. An amendment to the Regulation A+ Offering Circular was qualified by the SEC on September 15, 2021 to offer 50,000,000 shares at a price of $0.10 for a maximum of $5,000,000. The Company amended the Regulation A+ Offering Circular to raise an additional $1,200,000 in July 2022 at $0.08 per share (15,000,000 additional shares) and sold 20,000,000 warrants for $20,000. An additional amendment to the Regulation A+ Offering Circular was filed in October 2022 to raise the remaining $3,800,000 of the $5,000,000. In April 2023, $640,000 was raised as a result of the issuance of 8,000,000 shares, 2,665,000 Series A warrants and 8,000,000 Series B warrants along with $10,665 from the issuance and sale of the warrants.

 

The Company’s Regulation A+ offerings have raised approximately $5,200,000 to date under the Regulation A+ Offering Circular, the proceeds from which have been used as follows:

 

For the animal therapy market:

 

  Fund the effort to communicate the benefits of IsoPet® to the veterinary community and the pet parents.
  Conduct additional clinical studies to generate more data for the veterinary community
  Subsidize some IsoPet® therapies, if necessary, to ensure that all viable candidates are treated.
  Assist new regional clinics with their license and certification training.

 

For the human market:

 

  Enhance the pedigree of the Quality Management System.
  Complete the previously defined pre-clinical testing and additional testing on an animal model closely aligned with our revised indication for use. Report the results to the FDA in a pre-submission meeting.
  Use the feedback from that meeting to write the IDE (Investigational Device Exemption), which is required to initiate clinical trials.

 

Research and development of the Company’s brachytherapy product line has been funded with proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities. The Company may require additional funding of approximately $2.5 million annually to maintain current operating activities. Over the next 12 to 48 months, the Company believes it will cost approximately $9 million to: (1) fund the FDA approval process to conduct human clinical trials, (2) conduct Phase I, pilot, clinical trials, (3) activate several regional clinics to administer IsoPet® across the county, (4) create an independent production center within the current production site to create a template for future international manufacturing, and (5) initiate regulatory approval processes outside of the United States. The proceeds to be raised from the recent qualified Regulation A+, including the proceeds raised under this post-effective amendment, will be used to continue to fund this development.

 

4
 

 

The continued deployment of the brachytherapy products and a worldwide regulatory approval effort will require additional resources and personnel. The principal variables in the timing and amount of spending for the brachytherapy products in the next 12 to 24 months will be the FDA’s classification of the Company’s brachytherapy products as Class II or Class III devices (or otherwise) and any requirements for additional studies which may possibly include clinical studies. Thereafter, the principal variables in the amount of the Company’s spending and its financing requirements would be the timing of any approvals and the nature of the Company’s arrangements with third parties for manufacturing, sales, distribution and licensing of those products and the products’ success in the U.S. and elsewhere. The Company intends to fund its activities through strategic transactions such as licensing and partnership agreements or from proceeds to be raised from the recent qualified Regulation A+, including the proceeds raised under this post-effective amendment.

 

Following receipt of required regulatory approvals and financing, in the U.S., the Company intends to outsource material aspects of manufacturing, distribution, sales and marketing. Outside of the U.S., the Company intends to pursue licensing arrangements and/or partnerships to facilitate its global commercialization strategy.

 

In the longer-term, subject to the Company receiving adequate funding, regulatory approval for RadioGel and other brachytherapy products, and thereafter being able to successfully commercialize its brachytherapy products, the Company intends to consider resuming research efforts with respect to other products and technologies intended to help improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other illnesses.

 

Based on the Company’s financial history since inception, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has limited revenue, nominal cash, and has accumulated deficits since inception. If the Company cannot obtain sufficient additional capital, the Company will be required to delay the implementation of its business strategy and may not be able to continue operations.

 

The Company has been impacted from the effects of COVID-19. The Company’s headquarters are in Northeast Washington; however, its focus on the animal therapy market has been in the Northwestern sector of the United States. The Company continues its marketing to the animal therapy market and its attempt to increase the exposure to its product and generate revenue accordingly.

 

As of June 30, 2023, the Company has $1,748,767 cash on hand. There are currently commitments to vendors for products and services purchased. To continue the development of the Company’s products, the current level of cash may not be enough to cover the fixed and variable obligations of the Company.

 

There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or to do so at an advantageous price.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. The Company plans to seek additional funding to maintain its operations through debt and equity financing and to improve operating performance through a focus on strategic products and increased efficiencies in business processes and improvements to the cost structure. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to raise additional working capital or achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Risk Factors

 

we are a development stage company with no current revenue, and limited experience developing medical devices, including those intended for use in the radiation oncology field, which makes it difficult to assess our future viability;
   
the conservative veterinary community is very slow to use a new product such as IsoPet without a great deal of data which requires investment and time;
   
we depend heavily on the success of RadioGel™, and we cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain regulatory approval for, or successfully commercialize, RadioGel™, or any other future product candidates;
   
failures or delays in the commencement or business plan could delay, prevent or limit our ability to generate revenue and continue our business;
   
we face significant competition, and if we are unable to compete effectively, we may not be able to achieve or maintain significant market penetration or improve our results of operations;
   

future sales or issuances of our securities, including the sale of securities being offered hereby, may cause immediate and substantial dilution to existing stockholders;

 

there is only one supplier of Y-90 in the United States, requiring us to rely entirely on this supplier to provide the Y-90 particles needed to produce RadioGelTM. If we are unable to obtain a sufficient supply of Y-90 particles, we will not be able to proceed with our development of RadioGelTM and our business will be materially harmed;
   
if we are unable to adequately protect our proprietary technology, or obtain and maintain issued patents that are sufficient to protect our product candidates, others could compete against us more directly, which would have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects; and
   
we have incurred significant net losses since inception and we will continue to incur substantial operating losses for the foreseeable future.

 

See the section entitled “Risk Factors” for a more thorough discussion of risks related to an investment in our common stock.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, as well as the other information in this Offering Circular, including our financial statements and the related notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” before deciding whether to invest in our securities. The occurrence of any of the events or developments described below could harm our business, financial condition, operating results, and growth prospects. In such an event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations.

 

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS

 

Our independent registered public accounting firms’ reports on its financial statements questions the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firms’ reports on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 express substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The reports include an explanatory paragraph stating that the Company has suffered recurring losses, used significant cash in support of its operating activities and based on its current operating levels, requires additional capital or restructuring to sustain its operation for the foreseeable future. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional capital to continue its operations and to alleviate doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company obtains additional financing, such funds may not be available on favorable terms and likely would entail considerable dilution to existing shareholders. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that restrict its ability to conduct its business. It is extremely remote that the Company could obtain any financing on any basis that did not result in considerable dilution for shareholders. Inclusion of a “going concern qualification” in the report of its independent accountants or in any future report may have a negative impact on its ability to obtain debt or equity financing and may adversely impact its stock price.

 

A combination of our current financial condition and the FDA’s determinations to date regarding our brachytherapy products raise material concerns about ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company will not be able to continue as a going concern unless the Company obtains financing. Depending upon the amount of financing, if any, the Company is able to obtain, the Company may not receive adequate funds to continue the approval process for RadioGel™ or other brachytherapy products with the FDA.

 

The Company has generated operating losses since inception, which are expected to continue, and has increasing cash requirements, which it may be unable to satisfy.

 

The Company has generated material operating losses since inception. The Company has had recurring net losses since inception which has resulted in an accumulated deficit of $80,706,872, $79,556,028 and $77,085,867 as of June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, including net losses of $1,150,844 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, net losses of $2,470,161 for the year ended December 31, 2022 and net losses of $2,527,766 for the year ended December 31, 2021. Historically, the Company has relied upon investor funds to maintain its operations and develop its business. The Company needs to raise additional capital from investors for working capital as well as business expansion, and there is no assurance that additional investor funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. If the Company is unable to unable to obtain additional financing to meet its working capital requirements, the Company likely would cease operations.

 

The Company requires funding of at least $5 million per year to maintain current operating activities. Over the next 24 months, the Company believes it will cost approximately $9 million to: (1) fund the FDA approval process to conduct human clinical trials, (2) conduct Phase I, pilot, clinical trials, (3) activate several regional clinics to administer IsoPet® across the county, (4) create an independent production center within the current production site to create a template for future international manufacturing, and (5) initiate regulatory approval processes outside of the United States.

The principal variables in the timing and amount of spending for the brachytherapy products in the next 12 to 24 months will be the FDA’s classification of the Company’s brachytherapy products as Class II or Class III devices (or otherwise) and any requirements for additional studies, which may possibly include clinical studies. Thereafter, the principal variables in the amount of the Company’s spending and its financing requirements would be the timing of any approvals and the nature of the Company’s arrangements with third parties for manufacturing, sales, distribution and licensing of those products and the products’ success in the U.S. and elsewhere. The Company intends to fund its activities through strategic transactions such as licensing and partnership agreements or additional capital raises.

 

Recent economic events, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the inherent instability in global capital markets, as well as the lack of liquidity in the capital markets, could adversely impact the Company’s ability to obtain financing and its ability to execute its business plan.

 

The Company has a limited operating history, which may make it difficult to evaluate its business and prospects.

 

The Company has a limited operating history upon which one can base an evaluation of its business and prospects. As a company in the development stage, there are substantial risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties to which its business is subject. To address these risks and uncertainties, the Company must do the following:

 

  successfully develop and execute the business strategy;
     
  respond to competitive developments; and
     
  attract, integrate, retain and motivate qualified personnel.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will achieve or maintain profitable operations or that the Company will obtain or maintain adequate working capital to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company cannot be certain that its business strategy will be successfully developed and implemented or that the Company will successfully address the risks that face its business. In the event that the Company does not successfully address these risks, its business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

 

The Company’s products are regulated and require appropriate clearances and approvals to be marketed in the U.S. and globally.

 

There is no assurance the FDA or other global regulatory authorities will grant the Company permission to market the Company’s brachytherapy Y-90 RadioGel™ device.

 

The Company has been working with the FDA to obtain clearance for its brachytherapy Y-90 RadioGelTM device, but no assurances have been received. On December 23, 2014, the Company announced that it submitted a de novo to the FDA for marketing clearance for its patented Y-90 RadioGelTM device pursuant to Section 513(f)(2) of the U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (the “Act”). In June 2015, the FDA notified the Company the de novo was not granted. In February 2014, the FDA found the same device under Section 510(k) of the Act not substantially equivalent and concluded that the device is classified by statute as a Class III medical device, unless the device is reclassified. The Company is seeking reclassification of the product to Class II. If the Company is successful in seeking reconsideration of the Company’s de novo application, as a regulatory matter, the device could be on an easier and faster path to market in the United States. However, there would still be the requirements to complete the in vitro and in vivo testing, and then some human clinical trials. That testing date is submitted in a de novo pre-market application and if accepted we could then go to market. As a practical matter, the Company would still need to secure funding and commercial arrangements before marketing could commence. If the de novo is declined and if the Company obtains funding to permit it to continue operations, the Company will explore steps toward seeking approval for the device as a Class III medical device. Generally, the time period and cost of seeking approval as a Class III medical device is materially greater than the time period and cost of seeking approval as a Class II medical device. If the Company seeks approval as a Class III device, human clinical trials will be necessary. Generally, human trials for Class III products are larger, of longer duration and costlier than those for Class II devices.

If human clinical trials are necessary, there will be additional cost and time to reach marketing clearance or approval. Unless the Company obtains sufficient funding, it will be unable to do the foregoing activities. There can be no assurance that the product will be approved as either a Class II or Class III device by the FDA even if additional data is provided. In August 2017, the Company met again with the FDA in a pre-submission meeting to once again go through the requirements for pre-clinical testing and to answer the previous FDA questions submitted years before. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive FDA approval, or if it does, the timing thereof.

 

RISKS RELATED TO THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK

 

If the Company is successful in increasing the size of its organization, the Company may experience difficulties in managing growth.

 

The Company is a small organization with a minimal number of employees. If the Company is successful, it may experience a period of significant expansion in headcount, facilities, infrastructure and overhead and further expansion may be required to address potential growth and market opportunities. Any such future growth will impose significant added responsibilities on members of management, including the need to improve the Company’s operational and financial systems and to identify, recruit, maintain and integrate additional managers. The Company’s future financial performance and its ability to compete effectively will depend, in part, on the ability to manage any future growth effectively.

 

The Company’s business is dependent upon the continued services of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Michael Korenko. Should the Company lose the services of Dr. Korenko, the Company’s operations will be negatively impacted.

 

The Company’s business is dependent upon the expertise of its Chief Executive Officer, Michael Korenko. Dr. Korenko is essential to the Company’s operations. Accordingly, an investor must rely on Dr. Korenko’s management decisions that will continue to control the Company’s business affairs. The Company does not maintain key man insurance on Dr. Korenko’s life. The loss of the services of Dr. Korenko would have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business. To mitigate this risk, David Swanberg has been groomed as a replacement candidate. He has extensive experience as a co-founder of IsoRay and has been actively working with Dr. Korenko as a consultant for the last two years.

 

The Company is heavily dependent on consultants for many of the services necessary to continue operations. The loss of any of these consultants could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

The Company’s success is heavily dependent on the continued active participation of certain consultants and collaborating scientists. Certain key employees and consultants have no written employment contracts. Loss of the services of any one or more of its consultants could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

If the Company is unable to hire and retain additional qualified personnel, the business and financial condition may suffer.

 

The Company’s success and achievement of its growth plans depend on its ability to recruit, hire, train and retain highly qualified technical, scientific, regulatory and managerial employees, consultants and advisors. Competition for qualified personnel among pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies is intense, and an inability to attract and motivate additional highly skilled personnel required for the expansion of the Company’s activities, or the loss of any such persons, could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

The Company’s revenues have historically been derived from sales made to a small number of customers. The Company has discontinued prior operations related to its core business. To succeed, we will need to recommence our operations and achieve sales to a materially larger number of customers.

 

The Company’s consulting revenues relate to their commercializing of its products or expanding the number of customers purchasing its products and services. The Company had $12,500 in operating revenues, net of discounts, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and $36,499 and $14,887 in operating revenues, net of discounts for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively as they have commenced sales of IsoPet®.

 

10
 

 

Many of the Company’s competitors have greater resources and experience than the Company has.

 

Many of the Company’s competitors have greater financial resources, longer history, broader experience, greater name recognition, and more substantial operations than the Company has, and they represent substantial long-term competition for us. The Company’s competitors may be able to devote more financial and human resources than the Company can to research, new product development, regulatory approvals, and marketing and sales. The Company’s competitors may develop or market products that are viewed by customers as more effective or more economical than the Company’s products. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to compete effectively against current and future competitors, and such competitive pressures may adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations.

 

The Company’s future revenues depend upon acceptance of its current and future products in the markets in which they compete.

 

The Company’s future revenues depend upon receipt of financing, regulatory approval and the successful production, marketing, and sales of the various isotopes the Company might market in the future. The rate and level of market acceptance of each of these products, if any, may vary depending on the perception by physicians and other members of the healthcare community of its safety and efficacy as compared to that of any competing products; the clinical outcomes of any patients treated; the effectiveness of its sales and marketing efforts in the United States, Europe, Far East, Middle East, and Russia; any unfavorable publicity concerning its products or similar products; the price of the Company’s products relative to other products or competing treatments; any decrease in current reimbursement rates from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services or third-party payers; regulatory developments related to the manufacture or continued use of its products; availability of sufficient supplies to either purchase or manufacture its products; its ability to produce sufficient quantities of its products; and the ability of physicians to properly utilize its products and avoid excessive levels of radiation to patients. Any material adverse developments with respect to the commercialization of any such products may adversely affect revenues and may cause the Company to continue to incur losses in the future.

 

The Company currently relies on a single supplier for Y-90 particles, and that supplier is the only supplier in the United States. An inability to procure Y-90 particles will harm the Company’s business.

 

There is only one supplier of Y-90 particles in the United States, requiring us to rely entirely on this supplier to provide the Y-90 particles needed to produce RadioGelTM. If we are unable to obtain a sufficient supply of Y-90 particles, we will not be able to proceed with our development of RadioGelTM and our business may be materially harmed.

 

The Company currently subcontracts the manufacturing of RadioGelTM to IsoTherapeutics. PerkinElmer Inc. is the sole supplier of the Y-90 particles used by IsoTherapeutics and is the only supplier of Y-90 particles in the United States. In the event PerkinElmer is unable to satisfy our supply requirements or stope producing Y-90 particles, we will be unable to continue with development of RadioGel™ and our business would be materially harmed.

 

The Company will rely heavily on a limited number of suppliers for the foreseeable future.

 

Some of the products the Company might market, and components thereof are currently available only from a limited number of suppliers, several of which are international suppliers. Failure to obtain deliveries from these sources could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to operate.

 

11
 

 

The Company may incur material losses and costs as a result of product liability claims that may be brought against it.

 

The Company faces an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that products supplied by the Company fail to perform as expected or such products result, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury. Any such claims may also result in adverse publicity, which could damage the Company’s reputation by raising questions about the safety and efficacy of its products and could interfere with its efforts to market its products. A successful product liability claim against the Company in excess of its available insurance coverage or established reserves may have a material adverse effect on its business. Although the Company currently maintains liability insurance in amounts it believes are commercially reasonable, any product liability the Company may incur may exceed its insurance coverage.

 

The Company is subject to the risk that certain third parties may mishandle the Company’s products.

 

If the Company markets products, the Company likely will rely on third parties, such as commercial air courier companies, to deliver the products, and on other third parties to package the products in certain specialized packaging forms requested by customers. The Company thus would be subject to the risk that these third parties may mishandle its product, which could result in material adverse effects, particularly given the radioactive nature of some of the products.

 

The Company is subject to uncertainties regarding reimbursement for use of its products.

 

Hospitals and freestanding clinics may be less likely to purchase the Company’s products if they cannot be assured of receiving favorable reimbursement for treatments using its products from third-party payers, such as Medicare and private health insurance plans. Third-party payers are increasingly challenging the pricing of certain medical services or devices, and there is no assurance that they will reimburse the Company’s customers at levels sufficient for it to maintain favorable sales and price levels for the Company’s products. There is no uniform policy on reimbursement among third-party payers, and there is no assurance that the Company’s products will continue to qualify for reimbursement from all third-party payers or that reimbursement rates will not be reduced. A reduction in or elimination of third-party reimbursement for treatments using the Company’s products would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenues.

 

The Company’s future growth is largely dependent upon its ability to develop new technologies that achieve market acceptance with appropriate margins.

 

The Company’s business operates in global markets that are characterized by rapidly changing technologies and evolving industry standards. Accordingly, future growth rates depend upon a number of factors, including the Company’s ability to (i) identify emerging technological trends in the Company’s target end-markets, (ii) develop and maintain competitive products, (iii) enhance the Company’s products by adding innovative features that differentiate the Company’s products from those of its competitors, and (iv) develop, manufacture and bring products to market quickly and cost-effectively. The Company’s ability to develop new products based on technological innovation can affect the Company’s competitive position and requires the investment of significant resources. These development efforts divert resources from other potential investments in the Company’s business, and they may not lead to the development of new technologies or products on a timely basis or that meet the needs of the Company’s customers as fully as competitive offerings. In addition, the markets for the Company’s products may not develop or grow as it currently anticipates. The failure of the Company’s technologies or products to gain market acceptance due to more attractive offerings by the Company’s competitors could significantly reduce the Company’s revenues and adversely affect the Company’s competitive standing and prospects.

 

The Company may rely on third parties to represent it locally in the marketing and sales of its products in international markets and its revenue may depend on the efforts and results of those third parties.

 

The Company’s future success may depend, in part, on its ability to enter into and maintain collaborative relationships with one or more third parties, the collaborator’s strategic interest in the Company’s products and the Company’s products under development, and the collaborator’s ability to successfully market and sell any such products.

 

12
 

 

The Company intends to pursue collaborative arrangements regarding the marketing and sales of its products; however, it may not be able to establish or maintain such collaborative arrangements, or if it is able to do so, the Company’s collaborators may not be effective in marketing and selling its products. To the extent that the Company decides not to, or is unable to, enter into collaborative arrangements with respect to the sales and marketing of its products, significant capital expenditures, management resources and time will be required to establish and develop an in-house marketing and sales force with technical expertise. To the extent that the Company depends on third parties for marketing and distribution, any revenues received by the Company will depend upon the efforts and results of such third parties, which may or may not be successful.

 

The Company may pursue strategic acquisitions that may have an adverse impact on its business.

 

Executing the Company’s business strategy may involve pursuing and consummating strategic transactions to acquire complementary businesses or technologies. In pursuing these strategic transactions, even if the Company does not consummate them, or in consummating such transactions and integrating the acquired business or technology, the Company may expend significant financial and management resources and incur other significant costs and expenses. There is no assurance that any strategic transactions will result in additional revenues or other strategic benefits for the Company’s business. The Company may issue the Company’s stock as consideration for acquisitions, joint ventures or other strategic transactions, and the use of stock as purchase consideration could dilute the interests of its current stockholders. In addition, the Company may obtain debt financing in connection with an acquisition. Any such debt financing may involve restrictive covenants relating to capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for the Company to obtain additional capital and pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. In addition, such debt financing may impair the Company’s ability to obtain future additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, general corporate or other purposes, and a substantial portion of cash flows, if any, from the Company’s operations may be dedicated to interest payments and debt repayment, thereby reducing the funds available to the Company for other purposes.

 

The Company will need to hire additional qualified accounting personnel in order to remediate a material weakness in its internal control over financial accounting, and the Company will need to expend any additional resources and efforts that may be necessary to establish and to maintain the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting and its disclosure controls and procedures.

 

As a public company, the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Company’s management is required to evaluate and disclose its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of each year-end, including disclosing any “material weakness” in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As a result of its assessment, management has determined that there is a material weakness due to the lack of segregation of duties and, due to this material weakness, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective. This material weakness has the potential of adversely impacting the Company’s financial reporting process and the Company’s financial reports. Because of this material weakness, management also concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company needs to hire additional qualified accounting personnel in order to resolve this material weakness. The Company also will need to expend any additional resources and efforts that may be necessary to establish and to maintain the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.

 

13
 

 

The Company’s patented or other technologies may infringe on other patents, which may expose it to costly litigation.

 

It is possible that the Company’s patented or other technologies may infringe on patents or other rights owned by others. The Company may have to alter its products or processes, pay licensing fees, defend infringement actions or challenge the validity of the patents in court, or cease activities altogether because of patent rights of third parties, thereby causing additional unexpected costs and delays to the Company. Patent litigation is costly and time consuming, and the Company may not have sufficient resources to pursue such litigation. If the Company does not obtain a license under such patents, if it is found liable for infringement, or if it is not able to have such patents declared invalid, the Company may be liable for significant money damages, may encounter significant delays in bringing products to market or may be precluded from participating in the manufacture, use or sale of products or methods of treatment requiring such licenses.

 

Protecting the Company’s intellectual property is critical to its innovation efforts.

 

The Company owns or has a license to use several U.S. and foreign patents and patent applications, trademarks and copyrights. The Company’s intellectual property rights may be challenged, invalidated or infringed upon by third parties, or it may be unable to maintain, renew or enter into new licenses of third party proprietary intellectual property on commercially reasonable terms. In some non-U.S. countries, laws affecting intellectual property are uncertain in their application, which can adversely affect the scope or enforceability of the Company’s patents and other intellectual property rights. Any of these events or factors could diminish or cause the Company to lose the competitive advantages associated with the Company’s intellectual property, subject the Company to judgments, penalties and significant litigation costs, or temporarily or permanently disrupt its sales and marketing of the affected products or services.

 

The Company may not be able to protect its trade secrets and other unpatented proprietary technology, which could give competitors an advantage.

 

The Company relies upon trade secrets and other unpatented proprietary technology. The Company may not be able to adequately protect its rights with regard to such unpatented proprietary technology, or competitors may independently develop substantially equivalent technology. The Company seeks to protect trade secrets and proprietary knowledge, in part through confidentiality agreements with its employees, consultants, advisors and collaborators. Nevertheless, these agreements may not effectively prevent disclosure of the Company’s confidential information and may not provide the Company with an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure of such information, and as result the Company’s competitors could gain a competitive advantage.

 

The Company is subject to extensive government regulation in jurisdictions around the world in which it does business. Regulations address, among other things, environmental compliance, import/export restrictions, healthcare services, taxes and financial reporting, and those regulations can significantly increase the cost of doing business, which in turn can negatively impact operations, financial results and cash flow.

 

If the Company is successful in developing manufacturing capability, the Company will be subject to extensive government regulation and intervention both in the U.S. and in all foreign jurisdictions in which it conducts business. Compliance with applicable laws and regulations will result in higher capital expenditures and operating costs, and changes to current regulations with which the Company complies can necessitate further capital expenditures and increases in operating costs to enable continued compliance. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be involved in proceedings under certain of these laws and regulations. Foreign operations are subject to political instabilities, restrictions on funds transfers, import/export restrictions, and currency fluctuation.

RISKS RELATED TO THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK

 

The Company’s common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB Marketplace. Failure to develop or maintain a more active trading market may negatively affect the value of the Company’s common stock, may deter some potential investors from purchasing the Company’s common stock or other equity securities, and may make it difficult or impossible for stockholders to sell their shares of common stock.

 

The Company’s average daily volume of shares traded for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was 496,720 and 2,074,138, respectively. Failure to develop or maintain an active trading market may negatively affect the value of the Company’s common stock, may make some potential investors unwilling to purchase the Company’s common stock or equity securities that are convertible into or exercisable for the Company’s common stock, and may make it difficult or impossible for the Company’s stockholders to sell their shares of common stock and recover any part of their investment.

 

The Company’s outstanding securities, the stock or other securities that it may become obligated to issue under existing agreements, and certain provisions of those securities, may cause immediate and substantial dilution to existing stockholders and may make it more difficult to raise additional equity capital.

 

The Company had 370,541,528 shares of common stock outstanding on September 18, 2023. The Company also had outstanding on that date dilutive securities consisting of preferred stock, restricted stock units, options, and warrants (collectively, “Common Stock Equivalents”) that if they had been exercised and converted in full on September 18, 2023, would have resulted in the issuance of up to 40,002,379 additional shares of common stock. The issuance of shares upon the exercise of the Common Stock Equivalents may result in substantial dilution to each stockholder by reducing that stockholder’s percentage ownership of the Company’s total outstanding shares of common stock. The issuance of some or all those warrants and any exercise of those warrants will have the effect of further diluting the percentage ownership of the Company’s other stockholders.

 

Future sales of the Company’s securities, including sales following exercise or conversion of derivative securities, or the perception that such sales may occur, may depress the price of common stock and could encourage short sales.

 

The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of the Company’s shares in the public market, including shares issuable upon exercise of the Common Stock Equivalents, or the perception that such sales may occur, may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock. Any decline in the price of the Company’s common stock may encourage short sales, which could place further downward pressure on the price of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Company’s stock price is likely to be volatile.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the reported low closing price for the Company’s common stock was $0.0425 per share, and the reported high closing price was $0.1091 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the reported low closing price for the Company’s common stock was $0.04 per share, and the reported high closing price was $0.1264 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the reported low closing price for the Company’s common stock was $0.068 per share, and the reported high closing price was $0.2592 per share. There is generally significant volatility in the market prices, as well as limited liquidity, of securities of early-stage companies, particularly early stage medical product companies. Contributing to this  volatility are various events that can affect the Company’s stock price in a positive or negative manner. These events include, but are not limited to: governmental approvals, refusals to approve, regulations or other actions; market acceptance and sales growth of the Company’s products; litigation involving the Company or the Company’s industry; developments or disputes concerning the Company’s patents or other proprietary rights; changes in the structure of healthcare payment systems; departure of key personnel; future sales of its securities; fluctuations in its financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us; investors’ general perception of us; and general economic, industry and market conditions. If any of these events occur, it could cause the Company’s stock price to fall, and any of these events may cause the Company’s stock price to be volatile.

 

The Company’s common stock is subject to the “Penny Stock” rules of the SEC and the trading market in its securities is limited, which makes transactions in its common stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the Company’s stock.

 

The SEC has adopted Rule 3a51-1, which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 requires that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks and that the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

15
 

 

In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person and must make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination, and that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

 

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of the Company’s common stock and may cause a decline in the market value of its stock.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

 

As a result of the Company issuing preferred stock, the rights of holders of the Company’s common stock and the value of the Company’s common stock may be adversely affected.

 

The Company’s Board of Directors is authorized to issue classes or series of preferred stock, without any action on the part of the stockholders. The Company’s Board of Directors also has the power, without stockholder approval, to set the terms of any such classes or series of preferred stock, including voting rights, dividend rights and preferences over the common stock with respect to dividends or upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of its business, and other terms. The Company has issued preferred stock that has a preference over the common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, and with respect to voting rights. In accordance with that and with the issuance of preferred stock, our common stockholders voting rights have been diluted and it is possible that the rights of holders of the common stock or the value of the common stock have been adversely affected.

 

The Company does not expect to pay any dividends on common stock for the foreseeable future.

 

The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its common stock to date and does not anticipate it will pay cash dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, stockholders must be prepared to rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation to earn an investment return, which may never occur. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors and will depend on the Company’s results of operations, financial conditions, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law, and other factors that the Company’s board deems relevant.

 

Pandemics including COVID-19 may adversely affect our business.

 

The unprecedented events related to COVID-19 and the variants, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), have had significant health, economic, and market impacts and may have short-term and long-term adverse effects on our business that we cannot predict as the global pandemic continues to evolve. The extent and effectiveness of responses by governments and other organizations also cannot be predicted.

 

Our ability to access the capital markets is unknown during the COVID-19 pandemic. Any such limitation on available financing would adversely affect our business.

 

16
 

 

GENERAL RISK FACTORS

 

Volatility in raw material and energy costs, interruption in ordinary sources of supply, and an inability to recover from unanticipated increases in energy and raw material costs could result in lost sales or could increase significantly the cost of doing business.

 

Market and economic conditions affecting the costs of raw materials, utilities, energy costs, and infrastructure required to provide for the delivery of the Company’s products and services are beyond the Company’s control. Any disruption or halt in supplies, or rapid escalations in costs, could adversely affect the Company’s ability to manufacture products or to competitively price the Company’s products in the marketplace. To date, the ultimate impact of energy costs increases has been mitigated through price increases or offset through improved process efficiencies; however, continuing escalation of energy costs could have a negative impact upon the Company’s business and financial performance.

 

General economic conditions in markets in which the Company does business can impact the demand for the Company’s goods and services. Decreased demand for the Company’s products and services could have a negative impact on its financial performance and cash flow.

 

Demand for the Company’s products and services, in part, depends on the general economic conditions affecting the countries and industries in which the Company does business. A downturn in economic conditions in a country or industry that the Company serves may adversely affect the demand for the Company’s products and services, in turn negatively impacting the Company’s operations and financial results. Further, changes in demand for the Company’s products and services can magnify the impact of economic cycles on the Company’s businesses. Unanticipated contract terminations by customers can negatively impact operations, financial results and cash flow. The Company’s earnings, cash flow and financial position are exposed to financial market risks worldwide, including interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations and exchange rate controls. Fluctuations in domestic and world financial markets could adversely affect interest rates and impact the Company’s ability to obtain credit or attract investors.

 

RISKS RELATED TO THIS OFFERING

 

Purchasers in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of their investment.

 

Because the public offering price per share is substantially higher than the book value per share of our common stock, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering. After giving effect to the assumed sale by us of the maximum of 50,000,000 shares of our common stock at an assumed public offering price of $0.08 per share, and after deducting the estimated offering expenses payable by us, which we estimate will be approximately $100,000, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of $0.07 per share in the pro forma net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering.

 

To the extent outstanding options, warrants or other derivative securities are ultimately exercised or converted, or if we issue restricted stock to our employees under our 2015 Omnibus Securities and Incentive Plan, there will be further dilution to investors who purchase shares in this offering. In addition, if we issue additional equity securities or derivative securities, investors purchasing shares in this offering will experience additional dilution. For a further description of the dilution that you will experience immediately after this offering, see “Dilution” on page 19.

 

We may allocate the net proceeds from this offering in ways that differ from our estimates based on our current plans and assumptions discussed in the section titled “Use of Proceeds” and with which you may not agree.

 

The allocation of net proceeds of the offering set forth in the “Use of Proceeds” section of this Offering Circular represents our estimates based upon our current plans and assumptions regarding industry and general economic conditions, our future revenues and expenditures. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including market conditions, cash generated by our operations, business developments and related rate of growth. We may find it necessary or advisable to use portions of the proceeds from this offering for other purposes. Circumstances that may give rise to a change in the use of proceeds and the alternate purposes for which the proceeds may be used are discussed in the section in this Offering Circular entitled “Use of Proceeds.” You may not have an opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information on which we base our decisions on how to use our proceeds. As a result, you and other stockholders may not agree with our decisions. See “Use of Proceeds” on page 18 for additional information.

 

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock, or the perception that such sales may occur, may adversely impact the price of our common stock.

 

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception that such sales may occur, may adversely impact the price of our common stock, even if there is no relationship between such sales and the performance of our business. As of September 18, 2023, we had 370,541,528 shares of common stock outstanding, as well as outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 2,252,809 shares of our common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.04 per share, 2,656,672 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding shares of our preferred stock, outstanding warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 25,665,000 shares of our common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.079 per share, and 2,175,000 outstanding restricted stock units at a weighted average value of $0.091 per share. The exercise of such outstanding derivative securities may result in further dilution of your investment.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

The maximum gross proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock being offered hereby is $4,000,000. Assuming that we sell the maximum number of shares of common stock being offered pursuant to this Offering Circular, we currently estimate that we will receive net proceeds of approximately $3,900,000 after the payment of estimated offering expenses payable by us. The estimate of the budget for offering costs is an estimate only, and the actual offering costs may differ from those expected by management.

 

We currently intend to use the majority of the proceeds we receive from this offering to expand our animal therapy business. This includes supporting the startup of regional centers beyond our initial pilot clinic, polymer developmental testing to optimize the production parameters to reduce production costs and to enhance reproducibility with FDA Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”) protocols, enhance product yield and shorten the product ordering to delivery cycle. We also intend to expand animal testing at the University of Missouri to include equoid sarcoids in horses and to engage other universities for additional animal studies to generate more data to help market IsoPet to the veterinary community. We will also continue our emphasis on intellectual property protection by expanding the number of allowed claims on our current patent applications and completing the previous filing on particle production filing in both the United States and international markets. We will enhance our propriety polymer intellectual property by investing in several production runs to optimize the specification ranges. We intend to complete the pre-clinical testing required to file an IDE with the FDA to initiate and target to complete the pilot clinical trials for Papillary thyroid carcinoma to demonstrate product safety, which we believe will significantly improve our ability to partner and/or license our product for human therapy. In the event we secure less than $4,000,000 from this offering, we intend to proceed with preparing the IDE, but may require additional financing to complete the submission.

 

In addition, we intend to apply certain proceeds towards offering expenses, public company and corporate costs, research and development and other application development, and working capital. We expect that approximately 10% to 20% of the proceeds from this offering will be used for general working capital purposes.

 

Pending these uses, we intend to invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, investment-grade interest-bearing securities such as money market accounts, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government.

 

The precise amounts that we will devote to each of the foregoing items, and the timing of expenditures, will vary depending on numerous factors.

 

The expected use of net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based on our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve and change. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures, specifically with respect to working capital, may vary significantly depending on numerous factors. As a result, the Company reserves the right to change the above use of proceeds if management believes it is in the best interests of the Company.

 

In the event we do not sell all of the shares being offered, we may seek additional financing from other sources to support the intended use of proceeds indicated above. If we secure additional equity funding, investors in this offering would be diluted. No plans for additional financing are currently being contemplated by the Company; however, in the event only the minimum proceeds are received in this offering, management may seek additional financing. No assurances can be given that additional financing would be available, and if available, on terms acceptable to us.

 

The following table sets forth the uses of proceeds assuming the sale of 100%, 75%, 50% and 30% of the securities offered for sale by the Company at $0.08  per share. No assurance can be given that we will raise the full $4,000,000 as reflected in the following table:

  (1) As of the date of this Offering Circular, we have not entered into any agreements with selling agents or broker dealers for the sale of the Offered Shares, and currently do not intend to retain a selling agent or broker dealer to assist in the Offering. As a result, no proceeds are currently allocated to pay any sales commissions. However, we reserve the right to engage FINRA-member broker-dealers to aid in the sale of the shares of our common stock being offered hereby. In the event we engage FINRA-member broker-dealers, we expect to pay sales commissions of up to 7.0% of the gross offering proceeds from their sales of shares of our common stock pursuant to this Offering Circular, although we may pay sales commissions greater than 7.0%.

DILUTION

 

The term “dilution” means the reduction of any one share as a percentage of the aggregate shares outstanding. Assuming that we sell the maximum number of shares of common stock being offered pursuant to this Offering Circular, the shares of common stock being offered hereby will constitute approximately 13% of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company immediately after the offering, assuming that we do not issue any additional shares of our common stock in the interim. We currently anticipate that subsequent to this offering we may require additional capital and such capital may take the form of other stock or securities or debt convertible into stock. The issuance of such additional securities will result in additional dilution to our stockholders.

 

Immediate Dilution

 

An early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options over its shares) to its founders and early employees at a very low cash cost, because they are, in effect, putting their “sweat equity” into the company. When the company seeks cash investments from outside investors, like you, the new investors typically pay a much larger sum for their shares than the founders or earlier investors, which means that the cash value of your stake is diluted because all the shares are worth the same amount, and you paid more than earlier investors for your shares.

 

If 100% of the Shares Are Sold for Cash:

 

As of June 30, 2023, the net tangible book value of our shares of common stock was $0.005.

 

Upon completion of this offering, in the event that 100% of the shares are sold for cash for an aggregate amount of $4,000,000, the net tangible book value of the 397,541,528 shares to be outstanding will be $3,949,650 or approximately $0.01 per share. As a result, the net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing shareholders will be increased by $0.005 per share without any additional investment on their part. Investors in the offering will incur an immediate dilution of $0.07 per share, or 87.5%.

 

After completion of this offering, assuming 50,000,000 shares are sold (of which 23,000,000 have already been sold), investors in the offering will own 13% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which they will have made a cash investment of $4,000,000 at an offering price of $0.08 per share. Our existing shareholders will own 87.5% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have invested $893,020 or $0.002 per share.

 

If 75% of the Shares Are Sold:

 

Upon completion of this offering, in the event that 75% of the shares are sold for cash for an aggregate amount of $3,000,000, the net tangible book value of the 385,041,528 shares to be outstanding will be $2,949,650 or approximately $0.008 per share. As a result, the net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing shareholders will be increased by $0.003 per share without any additional investment on their part. Investors in the offering will incur an immediate dilution of $0.072 per share, or 90%.

 

After completion of this offering, assuming 50,000,000 shares are sold (of which 23,000,000 have already been sold), investors in the offering will own 9.7% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which they will have made a cash investment of $3,000,000 at an offering price of $0.08 per share. Our existing shareholders will own 93.5% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have invested $893,020 or $0.002 per share.

 

If 50% of the Shares Are Sold:

 

Upon completion of this offering, in the event that 50% of the shares are sold for cash for an aggregate amount of $2,000,000, the net tangible book value of the 372,541,528 shares to be outstanding will be $1,949,650 or approximately $0.005 per share. As a result, the net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing shareholders will be increased by $0.00 per share without any additional investment on their part. Investors in the offering will incur an immediate dilution of $0.075 per share, or 93.75%.

 

After completion of this offering, assuming 50,000,000 shares are sold (of which 23,000,000 have already been sold), investors in the offering will own 6.7% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which they will have made a cash investment of $2,000,000 at an offering price of $0.08 per share. Our existing shareholders will own 94% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have $893,020 or $0.002 per share.

The Company anticipates raising additional capital within the next twelve months for working capital as well as business expansion, although the Company can provide no assurance that additional capital will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing to meet its working capital requirements, it may have to curtail its business or cease all operations.

 

24
 

 

The Company requires funding of at least $5 million per year to maintain current operating activities. Over the next 24 months, the Company believes it will cost approximately $9 million to fund: (1) fund the FDA approval process to conduct human clinical trials, (2) conduct Phase I, pilot, clinical trials, (3) activate several regional clinics to administer IsoPet® across the county, (4) create an independent production center within the current production site to create a template for future international manufacturing, and (5) initiate regulatory approval processes outside of the United States.

 

The principal variables in the timing and amount of spending for the brachytherapy products in the next 12 to 24 months will be the FDA’s classification of the Company’s brachytherapy products as Class II or Class III devices (or otherwise) and any requirements for additional studies, which may possibly include clinical studies. Thereafter, the principal variables in the amount of the Company’s spending and its financing requirements would be the timing of any approvals and the nature of the Company’s arrangements with third parties for manufacturing, sales, distribution and licensing of those products and the products’ success in the U.S. and elsewhere. The Company intends to fund its activities through strategic transactions such as licensing and partnership agreements or additional capital raises.

 

Although the Company is seeking to raise additional capital and has engaged in numerous discussions with investment bankers and investors, to date, the Company has not received firm commitments for the required funding. Based upon its discussions, the Company anticipates that if the Company is able to obtain the funding required to retire outstanding debt, pay past due payables and maintain its current operating activities, that the terms associated with such funding will result in material dilution to existing shareholders.

 

Recent geopolitical events, including the inherent instability and volatility in global capital markets, as well as the lack of liquidity in the capital markets, could impact the Company’s ability to obtain financing and its ability to execute its business plan.

 

Our Chief Executive Officer currently works from his home office in virtual communication with key personnel. Cadwell Laboratories, which is controlled by Carl Cadwell, a director of the Company, provides office space to management on an as-needed basis until such time as the Company leases permanent office space.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates the Company considers include criteria for stock-based compensation expense, and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Production equipment with a cost of $2,500 or greater and other fixed assets with a cost of $1,500 or greater are capitalized. Major betterments that extend the useful lives of assets are also capitalized. Normal maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations.

 

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Production equipment:   3 to 7 years
Office equipment:   2 to 5 years
Furniture and fixtures:   2 to 5 years

 

Leasehold improvements and capital lease assets are amortized over the shorter of the life of the lease or the estimated life of the asset.

 

Management of the Company reviews the net carrying value of all of its equipment on an asset by asset basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. These reviews consider the net realizable value of each asset, as measured in accordance with the preceding paragraph, to determine whether impairment in value has occurred, and the need for any asset impairment write-down.

 

License Fees

 

License fees are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization of license fees is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful life of the asset.

 

Patents and Intellectual Property

 

While patents are being developed or pending, they are not being amortized. Management has determined that the economic life of the patents to be ten years and amortization, over such ten-year period and on a straight-line basis will begin once the patents have been issued and the Company begins utilization of the patents through production and sales, resulting in revenues.

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets, including patents and intellectual property on a continual basis. Several factors are used to evaluate intangibles, including, but not limited to, management’s plans for future operations, recent operating results and projected and expected undiscounted future cash flows.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method.

 

Under ASC 606, in order to recognize revenue, the Company is required to identify an approved contract with commitments to preform respective obligations, identify rights of each party in the transaction regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has commercial substance and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have an impact on the Company’s operations or cash flows.

 

26
 

 

The Company recognized revenue as they (i) identified the contracts with each customer; (ii) identified the performance obligation in each contract; (iii) determined the transaction price in each contract; (iv) were able to allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognized revenue upon the satisfaction of the performance obligation. Upon the sales of the product to complete the procedures on the animals, the Company recognized revenue as that was considered the performance obligation.

 

Net Loss Per Share

 

The Company accounts for its loss per common share by replacing primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period and does not include the impact of any potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares had been issued. When the Company incurs a loss, the denominator is not increased by the potentially dilutive common shares as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and developments costs, including salaries, research materials, administrative expenses and contractor fees, are charged to operations as incurred. The cost of equipment used in research and development activities which has alternative uses is capitalized as part of fixed assets and not treated as an expense in the period acquired. Depreciation of capitalized equipment used to perform research and development is classified as research and development expense in the year computed.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

 

Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction.

 

Interest costs and penalties related to income taxes, if any, will be classified as interest expense and general and administrative costs, respectively, in the Company’s financial statements. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalty expense related to income taxes. The Company believes that it is not reasonably possible for the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820 (“Fair Value Measurements”) as of January 1, 2008 for financial instruments measured as fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

Fair value is defined as 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. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

  - Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
     
  - Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
     
  - Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes compensation costs under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation and ASU 2018-07. Companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

OUR BUSINESS

 

Vivos Inc. is a radiation oncology medical device company engaged in the development of its yttrium-90 (“Y-90”) based brachytherapy device, RadioGel™, for the treatment of non-resectable tumors. A prominent team of radiochemists, scientists and engineers, collaborating with strategic partners, including national laboratories, universities and private corporations, lead the Company’s development efforts. The Company’s overall vision is to globally empower physicians, medical researchers and patients by providing them with new isotope technologies that offer safe and effective treatments for cancer.

 

In 2013 the FDA issued the determination that RadioGel™ is a device for human therapy for non-resectable cancers in humans. This should result in a faster path than a drug for final approval.

 

In January 2018, the Center for Veterinary Medicine Product Classification Group ruled that RadioGel should be classified as a device for animal therapy of feline sarcomas and canine soft tissue sarcomas. Additionally, after a legal review, the Company believes that the device classification obtained from the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) Center for Veterinary Medicine is not limited to canine and feline sarcomas, but rather may be extended to a much broader population of veterinary cancers, including all or most solid tumors in animals. We expect the result of such classification and label review will be that no additional regulatory approvals are necessary for the use of IsoPet® for the treatment of solid tumors in animals. The FDA does not have premarket authority over devices with a veterinary classification, and the manufacturers are responsible for assuring that the product is safe, effective, properly labeled, and otherwise in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

 

Based on the FDA’s recommendation, RadioGel will be marketed as “IsoPet®” for use by veterinarians to avoid any confusion between animal and human therapy. The Company already has trademark protection for the “IsoPet®” name. IsoPet® and RadioGel are used synonymously throughout this document. The only distinction between IsoPet® and RadioGel is the FDA’s recommendation that we use “IsoPet®” for veterinarian usage, and reserve “RadioGel ™” for human therapy. Based on these developments, the Company has shifted its primary focus to the development and marketing of Isopet® for animal therapy, through the Company’s IsoPet® Solutions division.

 

IsoPet Solutions

 

The Company’s IsoPet Solutions division was established in May 2016 to focus on the veterinary oncology market, namely engagement of university veterinarian hospital to develop the detailed therapy procedures to treat animal tumors and ultimately use of the technology in private clinics. The Company has worked with three different university veterinarian hospitals on IsoPet® testing and therapy. Washington State University treated five cats for feline sarcoma and served to develop the procedures which are incorporated in our label. They concluded that the product was safe and effective in killing cancer cells. Colorado State University demonstrated the CT and PET-CT imaging of IsoPet®. A contract was signed with University of Missouri to treat canine sarcomas and equine sarcoids starting in November 2017.

 

The dogs were treated for canine soft tissue sarcoma. Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (“RECIST”) is a set of published rules that define when tumors in cancer patients improve (respond), stay the same (stabilize), or worsen (progress) during treatment. The criteria were published by an international collaboration including the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (“EORTC”), National Cancer Institute of the United States, and the National Cancer Institute of Canada Clinical Trials Group.

 

The testing at the University of Missouri met its objective to demonstrate the safety of IsoPet®. Using its advanced CT and PET equipment it was able to demonstrate that the dose calculations were accurate and that the injections perfused into the cell interstices and did not stay concentrated in a bolus. This results in a more homogeneous dose distribution. There was insignificant spread of Y-90 outside the points of injection demonstrating the effectiveness of the particles and the gel to localize the radiation with no spreading to the blood or other organs nor to urine or fecal material. This confirms that IsoPet® is safe for same day therapy.

 

The effectiveness of IsoPet® for life extension was not the prime objective, but it resulted in valuable insights. Of the cases one is still cancer-free but the others eventually recurred since there was not a strong focus on treating the margins. The University of Missouri has agreed to become a regional center to administer IsoPet® therapy and will incorporate the improvements suggested by the testing program.

 

28
 

 

The Company anticipates that future profits, if any, will be derived from direct sales of RadioGel™ (under the name IsoPet®) and related services, and from licensing to private medical and veterinary clinics in the U.S. and internationally. The Company intends to report the results from the IsoPet® Solutions division as a separate operating segment in accordance with GAAP.

 

Commencing in July 2019, the Company recognized its first commercial sale of IsoPet®. A veterinarian from Alaska brought his cat with a re-occurrent spindle cell sarcoma tumor on his face. The cat had previously received external beam therapy, but now the tumor was growing rapidly. He was given a high dose of 400Gy with heavy therapy at the margins. This sale met the revenue recognition requirements under ASC 606 as the performance obligation was satisfied. The Company completed sales for an additional four animals that received the IsoPet® during 2019.

 

Our plan is to incorporate the data assembled from our work with Isopet® in animal therapy to support the Company’s efforts in the development of our RadioGel™ device candidate, including obtaining approval from the FDA to market and sell RadioGel™ as a Class II medical device. RadioGel™ is an injectable particle-gel for brachytherapy radiation treatment of cancerous tumors in people and animals. RadioGel™ is comprised of a hydrogel, or a substance that is liquid at room temperature and then gels when reaching body temperature after injection into a tumor. In the gel are small, less than two microns, yttrium-90 phosphate particles (“Y-90”). Once injected, these inert particles are locked in place inside the tumor by the gel, delivering a very high local radiation dose. The radiation is beta, consisting of high-speed electrons. These electrons only travel a short distance so the device can deliver high radiation to the tumor with minimal dose to the surrounding tissue. Optimally, patients can go home immediately following treatment without the risk of radiation exposure to family members. Since Y-90 has a half-life of 2.7 days, the radioactivity drops to 5% of its original value after ten days.

 

The Company modified its Indication for Use from skin cancel to cancerous tissue or solid tumors pathologically associated with locoregional papillary thyroid carcinoma and recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma having discernable tumors associated with metastatic lymph nodes or extranodal disease in patients who are not surgical candidates or who have declined surgery, or patients who require post-surgical remnant ablation (for example, after prior incomplete radioiodine therapy). Papillary thyroid carcinoma belongs to the general class of head and neck tumors for which tumors are accessible by intraoperative direct needle injection. The Company’s Medical Advisory Board felt that demonstrating efficacy in clinical trials was much easier with this new indication.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Our original license with Battelle National Laboratory is reached its end of life in 2022. During the past several years, in anticipation of this we have expanded our proprietary knowledge, our trademark and patent protection.

 

Our RadioGel trademark protection is in 17 countries. We have expanded our trademark protection from RadioGel to now include IsoPet. We obtained the International Certificate of Registration for ISOPET, which is the first step to file in several countries.

 

The Company received the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) International Search Report on our patent application (No.1811.191). Seven of our claims were immediately ruled as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability. This gives us the basis to extend for many years the patent protection for our proprietary Yttrium-90 phosphate particles utilized in Isopet® and Radiogel™.

 

29
 

 

Our patent team filed our particle patent in more than ten patent offices that collectively cover 63 countries throughout the world. We filed a continuation-in-part applications number 1774054 in the USA to expand the claims on our particle patent. The US Patent office recently gave us the Notice of Allowance for our patent to produce our yttrium phosphate microparticles, US Patent Application Serial No: 16-459,466. We also filed an amendment to correct the wording on our claims at make them consistent with the USE claims. Ref: 4207-0005; European Patent Application NO. 20 834 229.5; VIVOS INC; Our Ref: FS/53791.

 

We filed a hydrogel utility patent in the USA (16309:17/943,311) and internationally (16389:PCT/US22/4374) based on the last eighteen months of development work to optimize our hydrogel component. These include reducing the polymer production time and increasing the output by a factor of three. We have also further reduced the level of trace contaminants to be well below the FDA guidelines.

 

We filed a provisional patent (Serial Number 63436562) to protect our innovative improvements in our shipping container, our vial shield, our syringe shield, and our Peltier chiller. Our objectives were to reduce shipping costs, decrease radiation exposure, and enhance sterility. These devices will be preferentially used at Mayo Clinics for human clinical studies at and our IsoPet regional treatment centers.

 

We anticipate that Precison Radionuclide Therapy will become increasingly important in the future and expand to other isotope and other indications for use. Therefore, we filed an alternate particle utility patent (Serial number 18/152,137). Vivos Inc will focus its near-term effort on the Yttrium-90 therapy, which we believe is the best beta emitter; however, we leveraged our hydrogel utility patent to incorporate other promising isotopes and compounds for a range of future applications. This includes gamma and alpha particle emitters.

 

IsoPet Regional Clinics

 

We currently have four regional therapy clinics:

 

  Vista Veterinary Hospital – Kennewick, WA
  University of Missouri – Columbia, MO
  Johns Hopkins University – Baltimore, MD
  New England Equine Practice – Patterson, NY

 

Vista Veterinary Hospital (“Vista”) was selected as the pilot private clinic to initiate commercial sales of IsoPet®. It is good management practice to implement and learn from a pilot program before spreading to regional clinics across the country. Vista is located in the Tri-Cities Washington area which is convenient for interactions with key personnel of the Company. The pilot is being used to

 

  Refine the Memorandum of Understanding to define all the germane interfaces, roles and liabilities between Vista Inc and the private clinics, including the pilot responsivity to document and share the key aspects of all therapies with the Company;
  Create and implement proprietary certification training packages;
  Amend the production center radioactive material license at IsoTherapeutics, the Company’s IsoPet® production center, to allow distribution for commercial applications;
  Work with the pilot program to obtain a radioactive material licensing in an NRC agreement state;
  Create equipment and supplies list;
  Create and post regulatory signage;
  Explore different IsoPet® pricing options;
  Evaluate different approaches to obtain patients;
  Optimize patient scheduling practices to reduce cost to the pet owners;
  Develop communication material and a liability document for the pet owners; and
  Further refine the therapy techniques for advanced cancers.

 

Vista Veterinary Hospital has done well on two audits by the Washington State Department of Health. The Company is working closely with the Washington State Department of Health to refine and improve the radioactive material license. The Company has added several detailed procedures, which will benefit future regional clinics. In addition, a second veterinarian has completed all the preliminary requirements to become certified. All that remains is to demonstrate proficiency in three therapies.

 

The testing at the universities and at Vista Veterinary Hospital have demonstrated that IsoPet® is effective on killing cancer tissue near the injections. It is most effective in early cases before the cancer has begun to spread. Later stage cancers are more difficult to treat since the tendrils from the primary cancer site are not well defined and therefore can lead to recurrence.

 

There have been 115 expressions of interest in IsoPet® therapy from across the United States, but only about 10% of these were treated and they were very advanced cases. The reasons are instructive. Most of the cases were for so advanced that the pet parents found out about IsoPet® on the Internet as a last hope. Several others were internal cancers that could not be reached, for example deep in the throat. Several cases were treatable, but the pets weighed more than 20 pounds and the pet parents were not willing to fly them in the “Safe Cargo” holds. Those patients would have been treated by regional clinics once we implement that strategy. Several cases were mast cell cancers. The Company is confident that those tumors could have been treated, but once killed they release mast cells in a process called granulation. This could cause a shock to the animal’s system. The Company will focus one of our clinical studies on the optimum approach for those therapies.

 

30
 

 

Vista Veterinary Hospital accepted advanced cancer cases and has gained experience to extend the animal’s lives. The first cat was terminally ill and had previously had external beam, surgery and chemotherapy. The facial tumor was treated with 400 Gy and the biopsy confirmed that the cancer was killed. In about seven months the cancer returned in the throat and could not be treated so the cat had to be put down. Dr. Bauder, the veterinarian pet parent, was still elated about the life extension and is asking us to use him as a reference. The other cases were also very advanced with multiple tumors and they recurred since they had already spread before therapy. One animal, Yukon had a large tumor on his leg that was recommended for amputation. The tumor size decreased 50% after the first treatment, but then stopped decreasing. For the first time a second therapy was administered and the tumor has continued to decrease in size. Yukon’s life was extended for more than a year until she finally succumbed to metastatic cancer in another location.

 

Since IsoPet® has shown to be effective in killing cancer at the site of injection the current focus is in optimizing the techniques to help the pet resorb the necrotic tissue rapidly. In addition, IsoPet® was used to treat a mast cell tumor. When these cancers are destroyed, they release their mast cell. The animal was treated with a steroid to counter this effect and to date is doing well.

 

The Company’s efforts are now to obtain more early-stage cancer patients. The biggest obstacle is to convince the veterinarians of the pet parents to agree with IsoPet® therapy rather than using a more traditional method such as surgery. This is a slow process due to the conservative nature of the veterinarian professions. This is the prime motivation to continue with additional clinical trials and to publish the results.

 

The Company worked closely with FX Masse to develop nine certification training modules for use in potential regional clinics. These modules are necessary to satisfy the radioactive material handling licenses. This approach is very cost effective.

 

Johns Hopkins University VCTN, Veterinary Clinical Trials Network, is now an Isopet® regional clinic. Additionally, Johns Hopkins will also perform new Isopet® animal studies on various specific cancers. They have the required radioactive material license and have completed their training certification for Isopet®. This important relationship will also help meet our objective of obtaining high quality data on a range of cancers that can be published in leading journals. These publications are the optimal way to increase awareness of Isopet® and to gain broader acceptance from the veterinarian/oncology community.

 

Our objective is to open several regional clinics by the end of 2023 and to participate in a minimum of four conferences to spread the word about IsoPet in the veterinarian community for treating tumors in small animals and horses. We created a Marketing Steering Board to provide advice on obtaining new pet patients.

Regulatory History

 

Human Therapy

 

RadioGel™ has a long regulatory history with the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). Initially, the Company submitted a presubmission (Q130140) to obtain FDA feedback about the proposed product. The FDA requested that the Company file a request for designation with the Office of Combination Products (RFD130051), which led to the determination that RadioGel™ is a device for human therapy for non-resectable cancers, which must be reviewed and ultimately regulated by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (“CDRH”). The Company then submitted a 510(k) notice for RadioGel™ (K133368), which was found Not Substantially Equivalent due to the lack of a suitable predicate, and RadioGel™ was assigned to the Class III product code NAW (microspheres). Class III products or devices are generally the highest risk devices and are therefore subject to the highest level of regulatory review, control and oversight. Class III products or devices must typically be approved by FDA before they are marketed. Class II devices represent lower risk products or devices than Class III and require fewer regulatory controls to provide reasonable assurance of the product’s or device’s safety and effectiveness. In contrast, Class I products and devices are deemed to be lower risk than Class I or II, and are therefore subject to the least regulatory controls.

 

A pre-submission meeting (Q140496) was held with the FDA on June 17, 2014, during which the FDA maintained that RadioGel™ should be considered a Class III device and therefore subject to pre-market approval. On December 29, 2014, the Company submitted a de novo petition for RadioGel™ (DEN140043). The de novo petition was denied by the FDA on June 1, 2015, with the FDA providing numerous comments and questions. On September 29, 2015, the Company submitted a follow-up pre-submission informational meeting request with the FDA (Q151569). This meeting took place on November 9, 2015, at which time the FDA indicated acceptance of the Company’s applied dosimetry methods and clarified the FDA’s outstanding questions regarding RadioGel™. Following the November 2015 pre-submission meeting, the Company prepared a new pre-submission package to obtain FDA feedback on the proposed testing methods, intended to address the concerns raised by the FDA staff and to address the suitability of RadioGel™ for de novo reclassification. This pre-submission package was presented to the FDA in a meeting on August 29, 2017. During the August 2017 meeting, the FDA clarified their position on the remaining pre-clinical testing needed for RadioGel™. Specifically, the FDA addressed proposed dosimetry calculating techniques, dosimetry distribution between injections, hydrogel viscoelastic properties, and the details of the Company’s proposed animal testing.

 

The Company believes that its submissions to the FDA to date have addressed all the FDA staff’s feedback over the past four years. Of particular importance, the Company has provided corresponding supporting data for proposed future testing of RadioGel™ to address any remaining questions raised by the FDA. We believe, although no assurances can be given, that the clinical testing modifications presented to the FDA in August 2017 will result in a de novo reclassification for RadioGel™ by the FDA. In addition, in previous FDA submittals, the Company proposed applying RadioGel™ for a very broad range of cancer therapies, referred to as Indication for Use. The FDA requested that the Company reduce its Indications for Use. To comply with that request, the Company expanded its Medical Advisory Board (“MAB”) and engaged doctors from respected hospitals who have evaluated the candidate cancer therapies based on three criteria: (1) potential for FDA approval and successful therapy; (2) notable advantage over current therapies; and (3) probability of wide-spread acceptance by the medical community.

 

In November 2020 the Company submitted a request for a Breakthrough Device Designation. Ultimately, this was denied, but the FDA acknowledged, “The FDA does believe that RadioGel™ meets criterion #2a: Device represents breakthrough technology. Your device does meet this criterion because it is a novel application of a brachytherapy device outside of the liver.” More importantly the process resulted in a rapid review of our existing data and approach. It led to a redirection of our efforts on writing the IDE and saved the Company much time in the review of that future application.

 

32
 

 

Based on advice from the FDA the Company scheduled a Pre-Submission meeting on November 30, 2021 to discuss a draft of an Investigational Device Exemptions (IDEs) for Early Feasibility Medical Device Clinical Studies, Including Certain First in Human (FIH) Studies. Using this process results in more rapid feedback to prepare the final IDE.

 

The FDA was very supportive and had suggested this Q-Submission path for rapid turnaround and dialog. The Mayo Clinic physicians did an excellent job presenting the need for Radiogel to treat recurrent thyroid cancer and to answer a range of questions from the new FDA review team. The FDA provided many helpful suggestions on a range of subjects from labeling to dosimetry to the Mayo protocol for clinical testing, and the need for some additional specific testing. They suggested having another Q-Sub Review and conference call dedicated to the details of the dosimetry calculations.

 

In May of 2022 the Company held another Pre-Sub meeting with the FDA. They concurred with our dosimetry techniques and requested one more animal test to confirm that the Y-90 stays at the injection site. We will be proposed a Pre-Sub meeting to discuss this new animal test of VX-2 tumors in rabbits at Johns Hopkins University. We have a meeting scheduled with the FDA in October to obtain their feedback on our new animal test plan. In the meantime, the Company is working to complete all the other required pre-clinical testing, such as biocompatibility since they are required for the submittal of the IDE.

 

We held another Pre-Sub meeting with the FDA on October 17, 2022 to obtain detailed feedback on the proposed VX-2/Rabbit Animal Test Plan and to submit the Risk Management Report. The RMR analyzed all hypothetical scenarios and concluded that RadioGel is inherently safe. 

 

In parallel the Company is working with the Mayo Clinic’s principal investigators to improve the clinical trial protocol for their Institutional Review Board.

 

The MAB selected eighteen applications for RadioGel™, each of which meet the criteria described above. This large number confirms the wide applicability of the device and defines the path for future business growth. The Company’s application establishes a single Indication for Use - treatment of cancerous tissue or solid tumors pathologically associated with locoregional papillary thyroid carcinoma and recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma.

 

We anticipate that this initial application will facilitate each subsequent application for additional s Indications for Use. After the second indication for use we intend to applied for a broad indication for use, which would target to obtain approval to treat all solid tumors.

 

Financing and Strategy

 

The Company’s stock offering under Regulation A+ was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 3, 2020. A second Regulation A+ was qualified by the SEC on September 15, 2021 to raise capital for 50,000,000 shares at a price of $0.10 for a maximum of $5,000,000. The Company amended this and was able to raise $1,200,000 in July 2022 at $0.08 per share (15,000,000 shares) and sold 20,000,000 warrants for $20,000. An amended Regulation A+ Offering Circular was filed in October 2022 to raise the remaining $3,800,000 of the $5,000,000. In April 2023, $640,000 was raised in the issuance of 8,000,000 common shares, 2,665,000 Series A warrants and 8,000,000 Series B warrants along with $10,665 in the sale of the warrants.

 

The Company’s Regulation A+’ offerings have resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $5,200,000 from the sale of shares. Proceeds from the offerings have been allocated as follows:

 

For the animal therapy market:

 

  Fund the effort to communicate the benefits of IsoPet® to the veterinary community and the pet parents.
  Conduct additional clinical studies to generate more data for the veterinary community
  Subsidize some IsoPet® therapies, if necessary, to ensure that all viable candidates are treated.
  Assist a new regional clinic with their license and certification training.

 

For the human market:

 

  Enhance the pedigree of the Quality Management System.
  Complete the previously defined pre-clinical testing and additional testing on an animal model closely aligned with our revised indication for use. Report the results to the FDA in a pre-submission meeting.
  Use the feedback from that meeting to write the IDE (Investigational Device Exemption), which is required to initiate clinical trials.

 

Research and development of the Company’s brachytherapy product line has been funded with proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities. The Company may require additional funding of approximately $2.5 million annually to maintain current operating activities. Over the next 12 to 48 months, the Company believes it will cost approximately $9 million to: (1) fund the FDA approval process to conduct human clinical trials, (2) conduct Phase I, pilot, clinical trials, (3) activate several regional clinics to administer IsoPet® across the county, (4) create an independent production center within the current production site to create a template for future international manufacturing, and (5) initiate regulatory approval processes outside of the United States. The proceeds to be raised from the recently qualified Regulation A+ Offering Circular will be used to continue to fund this development.

 

33
 

 

The continued deployment of the brachytherapy products and a worldwide regulatory approval effort will require additional resources and personnel. The principal variables in the timing and amount of spending for the brachytherapy products in the next 12 to 24 months will be the FDA’s classification of the Company’s brachytherapy products as Class II or Class III devices (or otherwise) and any requirements for additional studies which may possibly include clinical studies. Thereafter, the principal variables in the amount of the Company’s spending and its financing requirements would be the timing of any approvals and the nature of the Company’s arrangements with third parties for manufacturing, sales, distribution and licensing of those products and the products’ success in the U.S. and elsewhere. The Company intends to fund its activities through strategic transactions such as licensing and partnership agreements or from proceeds to be raised from the recent qualified Regulation A+ Offering Circular.

 

Following receipt of required regulatory approvals and financing, in the U.S., the Company intends to outsource material aspects of manufacturing, distribution, sales and marketing. Outside of the U.S., the Company intends to pursue licensing arrangements and/or partnerships to facilitate its global commercialization strategy.

 

In the longer-term, subject to the Company receiving adequate funding, regulatory approval for RadioGel and other brachytherapy products, and thereafter being able to successfully commercialize its brachytherapy products, the Company intends to consider resuming research efforts with respect to other products and technologies intended to help improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other illnesses.

 

Based on the Company’s financial history since inception, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has limited revenue, nominal cash, and has accumulated deficits since inception. If the Company cannot obtain sufficient additional capital, the Company will be required to delay the implementation of its business strategy and may not be able to continue operations.

 

The Company has been impacted from the effects of COVID-19. The Company’s headquarters are in Northeast Washington; however, its focus on the animal therapy market has been in the Northwestern sector of the United States. The Company continues its marketing to the animal therapy market and attempt to increase the exposure to its product and generate revenue accordingly.

 

As of June 30, 2023, the Company has $1,748,767 cash on hand. There are currently commitments to vendors for products and services purchased. To continue the development of the Company’s products, the current level of cash may not be enough to cover the fixed and variable obligations of the Company.

 

There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or to do so at an advantageous price.

 

Product Features

 

The Company’s RadioGel™ device has the following product features:

 

  Beta particles only travel a short distance so the device can deliver high radiation to the tumor with minimal dose to the nearby normal tissues. In medical terms Y-90 beta emitter has a high efficacy rate;
     
  Benefitting from the short penetration distance, the patient can go home immediately with no fear of exposure to family members, and there is a greatly reduced radiation risk to the doctor. A simple plastic tube around the syringe, gloves and safety glasses are all that is required. Other gamma emitting products require much more protection;
     
  A 2.7-day half-life means that only 5% of the radiation remains after ten days. This is in contrast to the industry-standard gamma irradiation product, which has a half-life of 17 days;

 

34
 

 

  The short half-life also means that any medical waste can be stored for thirty days then disposed as normal hospital waste;
     
  RadioGel™ can be administered with small diameter needles (27-gauge) so there is minimal damage to the normal tissue. This is in contrast to the injection of metal seeds, which does considerable damage; and
     
  After about 120 days the gel resorbs by a normal biological cycle, called the Krebs Cycle. The only remaining evidence of the treatment are phosphate particles so small in diameter that it requires a high-resolution microscope to find them. This is in contrast to permanent presence of metal seeds.

 

Steps from Production to Therapy

 

Device Production

 

During the next two years, the Company intends to outsource material aspects of manufacturing and distribution. As future product volume increases, the Company will reassess its make-buy decision on manufacturing and will analyze the cost/benefit of a centrally located facility.

 

Production of the Hydrogel

 

RadioGelis manufactured with a proprietary process under ventilated sterile hood by following strict Good Laboratory Practices (“GLP”) procedures. It is made in large batches that are frozen for up to three months. When the product is ready to ship, a small quantity of the gel is dissolved in a sterile saline solution. It is then passed through an ultra-fine filter to ensure sterility.

 

Production of the Yttrium-90 Phosphate Particles

 

The Y-90 particles are produced with simple ingredients via a proprietary process, again following strict GLP procedures. They are then mixed into a phosphate-buffered saline solution. They can be produced in large batches for several shipments. The number of particles per shipment is determined by the dose prescribed by the doctor.

 

Pre-Mixing – RTU, Ready to Use

 

The Company now pre-mixes the particle solution and the hydrogel and places the RTU IsoPet in standard size vials. This innovation is cost effective and reduces the probability of any accidental spills or biological contamination at the therapy sites. It also simplified the certification training for new regional clinics.

 

Shipment

 

The vials are shipped via FedEx or UPS by following the proper protocols.

 

At the User

 

The quantities and activities are in the information on the product label.

 

The specific injection technique depends on the Indication for Use. For small tumors, one centimeter in diameter or less, the cancer is treated with a single injection. For larger tumors, the cancer is treated with a series of small injections from the same syringe or multiple syringes.

 

Principal Markets

 

The Company is currently pursuing two synergistic business sectors, medical and veterinary, each of which are summarized below.

 

Medical Sector

 

RadioGelis currently fully developed, requiring only FDA approval before commercialization.

 

Building on the FDA’s ruling of RadioGel as a device, the Company incorporated the FDA suggestions and has invested in the pre-clinical testing required for IDE submittal. This included two years of effort on biocompatibility testing. The last remaining animal test has been designed and has begun the initial scoping phase. 

 

RadioGelis currently fully developed, requiring only FDA approval before commercialization. The Company has been seeking FDA approval of RadioGel™ for almost five years. Recent progress has been delayed due to a lack of adequate funding. The principal issue preventing approval is that the Company attempted to obtain regulatory approval for a broad range of Indications for Use, including all non-resectable cancers, without sufficient supporting data.

 

35
 

 

Veterinary Sector

 

There are approximately 150 million pet dogs and cats in the United States. Nearly one-half of dogs and one-third of cats are diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lifetime. The Veterinary Oncology & Hematology Center in Norwalk, Connecticut, reports that cancer is the number one natural cause of death in older cats and dogs, accounting for nearly 50 percent of pet deaths each year. The American Veterinary Medical Association reports that half of the dogs ten years or older will die because of cancer. The National Cancer Institute reports that about six million dogs are diagnosed with cancer each year, translating to more than 16,000 a day.

 

The Company’s IsoPet® operating division focuses on the veterinary oncology market. Dr. Alice Villalobos, a founding member of the Veterinary Cancer Society and the Chair of our Veterinary Medicine Advisory Board, has been providing guidance to management regarding this market. The Veterinary Medicine Advisory Board gives us recommendations regarding the overall strategy for our animal business sector. Specially, they recommended the university veterinary hospitals for demonstration therapies, the specific cancers to be treated, and have provided business contact information to the private clinics.

 

Development of the product and application techniques and animal testing is allowed under FDA regulation. Commercial sales of RadioGelTM for animals requires confirmation by the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine (“CVM”). In January 2018, the Center for Veterinary Medicine Product Classification Group, the entity within the CVM that is responsible for determining the classification of a product, ruled that RadioGelTM should be classified as a device for animal therapy of feline sarcomas and canine soft tissue sarcomas.

 

Additionally, after a legal review, the Company believes that the device classification obtained from the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine is not limited to canine and feline sarcomas, but rather may be extended to a much broader population of veterinary cancers, including all or most all solid tumors in animals. We expect the result of such classification and label approval will be that no additional regulatory approvals are necessary for the use of RadioGelTM for the treatment of solid tumors in animals. The FDA does not have premarket authority over devices with a veterinary classification, and the manufacturers are responsible for assuring that the product is safe, effective, properly labeled, and otherwise in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

 

The Company currently intends to utilize university veterinary hospitals for therapy development, given that veterinary hospitals offer superior and plentiful veterinarians and students, a large number of animal patients, radioactive material handling licenses, and are respected by private veterinary centers and hospitals.

 

Competitors

 

The Company competes in a market characterized by technological innovation, extensive research efforts, and significant competition.

 

The pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are intensely competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological changes. A number of companies are pursuing the development of pharmaceuticals and products that target the same diseases and conditions that our products target. We cannot predict with accuracy the timing or impact of the introduction of potentially competitive products or their possible effect on our sales. Certain potentially competitive products to our products may be in various stages of development. Also, there may be many ongoing studies with currently marketed products and other developmental products, which may yield new data that could adversely impact the use of our products in their current and potential future Indications for Use. The introduction of competitive products could significantly reduce our sales, which, in turn would adversely impact our financial and operating results.

 

There are a wide variety of cancer treatments approved and marketed in the U.S. and globally. General categories of treatment include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and immunotherapy. These products have a diverse set of success rates and side effects. The Company’s products, including RadioGel, fall into the brachytherapy treatment category. There are a number of brachytherapy devices currently marketed in the U.S. and globally. The traditional iodine-125 (I-125) and palladium-103 (Pd-103) technologies for brachytherapy are well entrenched with powerful market players controlling the market. The industry-standard I-125-based therapy was developed by Oncura, which is a unit of General Electric Company. Additionally, C.R. Bard, a major industry player competes in the I-125 brachytherapy marketplace. These market competitors are also involved in the distribution of Pd-103 based products. Cs-131 brachytherapy products are sold by IsoRay. Several Y-90 therapies have been FDA approved including SIR-Spheres by Sirtex, TheraSphere by Biocompatibles UK and Zevalin by Spectrum Pharmaceuticals.

Raw Materials

 

The Company currently subcontracts the manufacturing of RadioGelTM at IsoTherapeutics. Prior to 2021, Eckert and Ziegler was the only supplier of Y-90 in the United States, and was the sole supplier of the Y-90 used by IsoTherapeutics to manufacture the Company’s RadioGel. The Company obtains supplies, hardware, handling equipment and packaging from several different U.S. suppliers.

 

During 2021, the Company engaged Akina, Inc. as an alternate supplier of its hydrogel polymer component. We have now expanded to include SciPoly as another alternate polymer supplier.

 

In the future we will be looking to qualify an alternative particle supplier.

 

Customers

 

The Company anticipates that potential customers for our potential brachytherapy products likely would include those institutions and individuals that currently purchase brachytherapy products or other oncology treatment products.

 

Government Regulation

 

The Company’s present and future intended activities in the development, manufacturing and sale of cancer therapy products, including RadioGel, are subject to extensive laws, regulations, regulatory approvals and guidelines. Within the United States, the Company’s therapeutic radiological devices must comply with the U.S. Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, which is enforced by FDA. The Company is also required to adhere to applicable FDA Quality System Regulations, also known as the Good Manufacturing Practices, which include extensive record keeping and periodic inspections of manufacturing facilities.

 

In the United States, the FDA regulates, among other things, new product clearances and approvals to establish the safety and efficacy of these products. We are also subject to other federal and state laws and regulations, including the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the Environmental Protection Act.

 

The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and other federal statutes and regulations govern or influence the research, testing, manufacture, safety, labeling, storage, record keeping, approval, distribution, use, reporting, advertising and promotion of such products. Noncompliance with applicable requirements can result in civil penalties, recall, injunction or seizure of products, refusal of the government to approve or clear product approval applications, disqualification from sponsoring or conducting clinical investigations, preventing us from entering into government supply contracts, withdrawal of previously approved applications, and criminal prosecution.

 

In the United States, medical devices are classified into three different categories over which the FDA applies increasing levels of regulation: Class I, Class II, and Class III. Most Class I devices are exempt from premarket notification 510(k); most Class II devices require premarket notification 510(k); and most Class III devices require premarket approval. RadioGel is currently classified as a Class III device.

 

Approval of new Class III medical devices is a lengthy procedure and can take a number of years and require the expenditure of significant resources. There is a shorter FDA review and clearance process for Class II medical devices, the premarket notification or 510(k) process, whereby a company can market certain Class II medical devices that can be shown to be substantially equivalent to other legally marketed devices.

 

The Company intends to apply for a de novo with an anticipated expenditure of $10.0 million over the next four years. This expenditure estimate includes anticipated costs associated with in vitro and in vivo pre-clinical testing, our application for an Investigational Device Exemption, Phase I and Phase II clinical trials and our application for a de novo.

 

37
 

 

As a registered medical device manufacturer with the FDA, we are subject to inspection to ensure compliance with FDA’s current Good Manufacturing Practices, or cGMP. These regulations require that we and any of our contract manufacturers design, manufacture and service products, and maintain documents in a prescribed manner with respect to manufacturing, testing, distribution, storage, design control, and service activities. Modifications or enhancements that could significantly affect the safety or effectiveness of a device or that constitute a major change to the intended use of the device require a new 510(k) premarket notification for any significant product modification.

 

The Medical Device Reporting regulation requires that we provide information to the FDA on deaths or serious injuries alleged to be associated with the use of our devices, as well as product malfunctions that are likely to cause or contribute to death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur. Labeling and promotional activities are regulated by the FDA and, in some circumstances, by the Federal Trade Commission.

 

As a medical device manufacturer, we are also subject to laws and regulations administered by governmental entities at the federal, state and local levels. For example, our facility is licensed as a medical device manufacturing facility in the State of Washington and is subject to periodic state regulatory inspections. Our customers are also subject to a wide variety of laws and regulations that could affect the nature and scope of their relationships with us.

 

In the United States, as a manufacturer of medical devices and devices utilizing radioactive byproduct material, we are subject to extensive regulation by not only federal governmental authorities, such as the FDA and FAA, but also by state and local governmental authorities, such as the Washington State Department of Health, to ensure such devices are safe and effective. In Washington State, the Department of Health, by agreement with the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”), regulates the possession, use, and disposal of radioactive byproduct material as well as the manufacture of radioactive sealed sources to ensure compliance with state and federal laws and regulations. RadioGel constitutes both medical devices and radioactive sealed sources and are subject to these regulations.

 

Moreover, our use, management, and disposal of certain radioactive substances and wastes are subject to regulation by several federal and state agencies depending on the nature of the substance or waste material. We believe that we are in compliance with all federal and state regulations for this purpose.

 

Environmental Regulation

 

Our business does not require us to comply with any extraordinary environmental regulations. Our RadioGel product is manufactured in an independently owned and operated facility. Any environmental effects or contamination event that could result would be from the shipping company during shipment and misuse by the treatment facility upon arrival.

 

Human Capital

 

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had one full-time personnel. The Company utilizes several independent contractors to assist with its operations. The Company does not have a collective bargaining agreement with any of its personnel and believes its relations with its personnel are good.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s executive officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of the Company’s common stock to file with the SEC initial reports of beneficial ownership on Form 3, changes in beneficial ownership on Form 4, and an annual statement of beneficial ownership on Form 5. Such executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC rules to furnish the Company with copies of all such forms that they have filed.

 

Based solely on its review of such forms filed with the SEC and received by the Company and representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that all reports required to be filed by each of each of its executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders were filed during the year ended December 31, 2022 and that such reports were timely.

 

Code of Ethics

 

The Company’s Board of Directors has not adopted a code of ethics that applies to the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, because of the Company’s limited number of executive officers and employees that would be covered by such a code and the Company’s limited financial resources. The Company anticipates that it will adopt a code of ethics after it increases the number of executive officers and employees and obtain additional financial resources.

 

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

 

As of the date of this report, the Company has not established an audit committee, and therefore, the Company’s full board of directors performs the functions that customarily would be undertaken by an audit committee. The Company’s board of directors during 2022 and 2021 was comprised of two directors, one of whom the Company had determined satisfied the general independence standards of the NASDAQ listing requirements.

 

The Company’s Board of Directors has determined that none of its current members qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by the rules of the SEC. In the future, the Company intends to establish board committees and to appoint such persons to those committees as are necessary to meet the corporate governance requirements imposed by a national securities exchange, although it is not required to comply with such requirements until the Company elects to seek listing on a national securities exchange.

Board of Directors; Attendance at Meetings

 

The Board held no meetings and acted by unanimous written consent two times during the year ended December 31, 2022. In 2021, we conducted no board of director meetings and acted by unanimous written consent two times. We have no formal policy with respect to the attendance of Board members at annual meetings of shareholders but encourage all incumbent directors and director nominees to attend each annual meeting of shareholders.

Independent Directors

 

The Company’s common stock is traded on the OTCQB Marketplace, which does not impose any independence requirements on the Board of Directors or the board committees of the companies whose stock is traded on that market. The Company has decided to adopt the independence standards of the Nasdaq listing rules in determining whether the Company’s directors are independent. Generally, under those rules a director does not qualify as an independent director if the director or a member of the director’s immediate family has had in the past three years certain relationships or affiliations with the Company, the Company’s auditors, or other companies that do business with the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Cadwell is qualified as an independent director under those Nasdaq rules, and accordingly, would have been qualified under those rules to serve on a compensation committee or a nominating committee, if the Company had established such committees of the Company’s Board of Directors. Dr. Korenko is not an independent director due to his employment by the Company as an executive officer.

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably any dividends that may be declared by our Board out of legally available funds, subject to any preferential dividend rights of any outstanding Preferred Stock. Upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably the Company’s net assets available after the payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding Preferred Stock. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. The outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are also subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of holders of shares of any series of Preferred Stock which the Company may designate and issue in the future without further shareholder approval.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our Board of Directors is currently authorized, without further shareholder approval, to issue from time to time up to an aggregate of 20.0 million shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix or alter the designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each series, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, term of redemption, including sinking fund provisions, redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or designations of such series without further vote or action by the shareholders. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of management without further action by the shareholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common stock, including the loss of voting control to others.

 

We currently have three series of preferred stock designated, our Series A Preferred, Series B Preferred and Series C Preferred. The following is a summary of the rights and preferences of such series of Preferred Stock, which summary is not meant to be a complete description of those terms.

Holders of Series C Preferred are entitled to vote on all matters, together with the holders of common stock, and have the equivalent of thirty-two (32) votes for every Series C Conversion Share issuable upon conversion of such holder’s outstanding shares of Series C Preferred. However, the Series C Conversion Shares, when issued, will have all the same voting rights as other issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, and none of the rights of the Series C Preferred.

 

Liquidation. Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary (a “Liquidation”), the holders of Series C Preferred shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company an amount equal to the liquidation preference of the Series C Preferred before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any junior securities, and if the assets of the Company are insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the entire assets to be distributed to the holders of the Series C Convertible Preferred shall be ratably distributed among the holders in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

 

Certain Price and Share Adjustments.

 

a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of common stock on shares of common stock or any other common stock equivalents; (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of common stock into a larger number of shares; (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of common stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the common stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the conversion price shall be adjusted accordingly.

 

b) Merger or Reorganization. If the Company is involved in any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger in which the common stock is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property than each share of Series C Preferred shall be convertible into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that a holder of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series C Preferred prior to any such merger or reorganization would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction.

DIVIDEND POLICY

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time. Furthermore, since only a limited number of shares will be available for sale shortly after this offering because of certain restrictions on resale, sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after the restrictions lapse could adversely affect the prevailing market price and our ability to raise equity capital in the future.

 

Upon completion of this offering, assuming the maximum number of shares of common stock offered in this offering are sold, there will be 422,812,898 shares of our common stock outstanding. This number excludes any issuance of additional shares of common stock that could occur in connection with any exercise of stock options and/or warrants outstanding as of the date of this Offering Circular. These shares of our common stock will be freely tradable in the public market, except to the extent they are acquired by an “affiliate” of ours, as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act. Under Rule 405, an affiliate of a specified person is a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the specified person. Any affiliate of ours that acquires our shares can only further transact in such shares in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, which imposes sales volume limitations and other restrictions on such further transactions. See “Rule 144,” below.

 

In addition to the foregoing, shares of our common stock not sold in this offering will be restricted securities written the meaning of Rule 144, and would be tradable only if they are sold pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act or if they qualify for an exemption from registration, including under Rule 144. See “Rule 144,” below.

 

Rule 144

 

In general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least one year, in the event we are a company that files reports under Regulation A, or at least six months, in the event we have been a company that files reports under the Exchange Act for at least 90 days, would be entitled to sell such securities, provided that such person is not deemed to be an affiliate of ours at the time of sale or to have been an affiliate of ours at any time during the three months preceding the sale. A person who is an affiliate of ours at such time would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three -month period only a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of the following:

 

1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding; or
   
the average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing by such person with the SEC of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale; 
provided that, in each case, we have been subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for at least 90 days before the sale. Persons replying on Rule 144 to transact in our common stock must also comply with the manner of sale, notice and other provisions of Rule 144, to the extent applicable. In general, Rule 701 allows a stockholder who purchased shares of our capital stock pursuant to a written compensatory plan or contract and who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of ours during the immediately preceding 90 days to sell those shares in reliance upon Rule 144, but without being required to comply with the public information, holding period, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144. Persons relying on Rule 701 to transact in our common stock, however, are required to wait until 90 days after the date of this Offering Circular before selling shares pursuant to Rule 701.

 

Lock Up -Agreements

 

There are currently no lock-up agreements with our officers, directors, and current stockholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

General

 

The Company is offering up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock on a “best efforts basis,” at an offering price of $0.08 per share (the “Offered Shares”), as further described in this Offering Circular. Any funds derived from the sale of the shares of common stock offered hereby will be immediately available to us for use. There will be no refunds.

 

There is no minimum number of shares of common stock that we are required to sell in this offering. All funds derived by us from this offering will be immediately available for use by us, in accordance with the uses set forth in the section of this Offering Circular entitled “Use of Proceeds.” No funds will be placed in an escrow account during the offering period and no funds will be returned, once an investor’s subscription agreement has been accepted by us.

 

We currently intend to sell the shares of common stock offered hereby through the efforts of members of our management team, including our Chief Executive Officer, Michael Korenko, among others. Members of our management team will not receive any compensation for offering or selling the shares of common stock offered pursuant to this Offering Circular. We believe that Mr. Korenko and the other members of our management team are exempt from registration as broker-dealers under the provisions of Rule 3a4-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act. In particular, such individuals:

 

  are not subject to a statutory disqualification, as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Securities Act;
     
  are not to be compensated in connection with their participation by the payment of commissions or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly on transactions in securities;
     
  are not an associated person of a broker or dealer; and
     
  meet the conditions of the following:
     
  primarily performs, and will perform at the end of this offering, substantial duties for us or on our behalf otherwise than in connection with transactions in securities;
     
  were not a broker or dealer, or an associated person of a broker or dealer, within the preceding 12 months; and
     
  did not participate in selling an offering of securities for any issuer more than once every 12 months other than in reliance on paragraphs (a)(4)(i) or (iii) of Rule 3a4-1 under the Exchange Act.

 

As of the date of this Offering Circular, we have not entered into any agreements with selling agents or broker dealers for the sale of the Offered Shares. However, we reserve the right to engage FINRA-member broker-dealers to aid in the sale of the shares of our common stock being offered hereby. In the event we engage FINRA-member broker-dealers, we expect to pay sales commissions of up to 7.0% of the gross offering proceeds from their sales of shares of our common stock pursuant to this Offering Circular, although we may pay sales commissions greater than 7.0%. In the event that we choose to utilize the services of a selling broker-dealer to aid in the sale of shares of our common stock, we expect that we will enter into a standard selling agent agreement with such broker-dealer, pursuant to which the broker-dealer would act as our non-exclusive sales agent in consideration of our payment of commissions on the sale of shares of common stock effected by the broker-dealer.

 

Termination of Offering

 

This offering will terminate at the earlier of (i) the date at which the maximum offering amount has been sold, (ii) the date that is twelve months from the date of this Offering Statement being qualified by the SEC, or (iii) the date at which the offering is earlier terminated by the Company in its sole discretion, which may happen at any time (the “Offering Termination Date ”).

 

54
 

 

Investors’ Tender of Funds

 

After the Offering Statement has been qualified by the SEC, the Company will accept tenders of funds to purchase shares of our common stock offered hereby. In addition, the Company currently has outstanding 8% Promissory Notes that may be exchanged for shares of common stock offered in connection with the offering, The Company may close on investments on a “rolling” basis (so not all investors will receive their shares on the same date). There are no conditions that the Company must meet in order to hold a closing. A closing will occur each time the Company determines to accept funds. Tendered funds will only be returned to investors upon termination of the offering as set out above, in which case any money tendered by potential investors and not accepted by the Company will be promptly returned by the Company. Upon a closing, funds tendered by investors will be made immediately available to the company for its use.

 

Offering Expenses

 

We are responsible for all offering fees and expenses, including the following: (i) fees and disbursements of our legal counsel, accountants, and other professionals we engage; (ii) fees and expenses incurred in the production of offering documents, including design, printing, photograph, and written material procurement costs; (iii) all filing fees, including FINRA and blue sky notice filing fees; (iv) all of the legal fees related to the filing of notice filings under state securities laws and FINRA clearance; and (v) our transportation, accommodation, and other roadshow expenses.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements of Vivos Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the results of operations of the Company for the period presented. The results of operations for the six and three months ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period or the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2023.

 

Business Overview

 

The Company was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on December 23, 1994 as Savage Mountain Sports Corporation (“SMSC”). On September 6, 2006, the Company changed its name to Advanced Medical Isotope Corporation, and on December 28, 2017, the Company began operating as Vivos Inc. The Company has authorized capital of 950,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.

 

Our principal place of business is located at 719 Jadwin Avenue, Richland, WA 99352. Our telephone number is (509) 736-4000. Our corporate website address is http://www.radiogel.com. Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “RDGL.”

 

The Company is a radiation oncology medical device company engaged in the development of its yttrium-90 based brachytherapy device, RadioGel, for the treatment of non-resectable tumors. A prominent team of radiochemists, scientists and engineers, collaborating with strategic partners, including national laboratories, universities and private corporations, lead the Company’s development efforts. The Company’s overall vision is to globally empower physicians, medical researchers and patients by providing them with new isotope technologies that offer safe and effective treatments for cancer.

 

In January 2018, the Center for Veterinary Medicine Product Classification Group ruled that RadioGel should be classified as a device for animal therapy of feline sarcomas and canine soft tissue sarcomas. Additionally, after a legal review, the Company believes that the device classification obtained from the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) Center for Veterinary Medicine is not limited to canine and feline sarcomas, but rather may be extended to a much broader population of veterinary cancers, including all or most solid tumors in animals. We expect the result of such classification and label review will be that no additional regulatory approvals are necessary for the use of IsoPet® for the treatment of solid tumors in animals. The FDA does not have premarket authority over devices with a veterinary classification, and the manufacturers are responsible for assuring that the product is safe, effective, properly labeled, and otherwise in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

 

Based on the FDA’s recommendation, RadioGel will be marketed as “IsoPet®” for use by veterinarians to avoid any confusion between animal and human therapy. The Company already has trademark protection for the “IsoPet®” name. IsoPet® and RadioGel are used synonymously throughout this document. The only distinction between IsoPet® and RadioGel is the FDA’s recommendation that we use “IsoPet®” for veterinarian usage, and reserve “RadioGel™” for human therapy. Based on these developments, the Company has shifted its primary focus to the development and marketing of Isopet® for animal therapy, through the Company’s IsoPet® Solutions division.

 

IsoPet Solutions

 

The Company’s IsoPet Solutions division was established in May 2016 to focus on the veterinary oncology market, namely engagement of university veterinarian hospital to develop the detailed therapy procedures to treat animal tumors and ultimately use of the technology in private clinics. The Company has worked with three different university veterinarian hospitals on IsoPet® testing and therapy. Washington State University treated five cats for feline sarcoma and served to develop the procedures which are incorporated in our label. They concluded that the product was safe and effective in killing cancer cells. Colorado State University demonstrated the CT and PET-CT imaging of IsoPet®. A contract was signed with University of Missouri to treat canine sarcomas and equine sarcoids starting in November 2017.

 

The dogs were treated for canine soft tissue sarcoma. Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (“RECIST”) is a set of published rules that define when tumors in cancer patients improve (respond), stay the same (stabilize), or worsen (progress) during treatment. The criteria were published by an international collaboration including the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (“EORTC”), National Cancer Institute of the United States, and the National Cancer Institute of Canada Clinical Trials Group.

The testing at the University of Missouri met its objective to demonstrate the safety of IsoPet®. Using its advanced CT and PET equipment it was able to demonstrate that the dose calculations were accurate and that the injections perfused into the cell interstices and did not stay concentrated in a bolus. This results in a more homogeneous dose distribution. There was insignificant spread of Y-90 outside the points of injection demonstrating the effectiveness of the particles and the gel to localize the radiation with no spreading to the blood or other organs nor to urine or fecal material. This confirms that IsoPet® is safe for same day therapy.

 

The effectiveness of IsoPet® for life extension was not the prime objective, but it resulted in valuable insights. Of the cases one is still cancer-free but the others eventually recurred since there was not a strong focus on treating the margins. The University of Missouri has agreed to become a regional center to administer IsoPet® therapy and will incorporate the improvements suggested by the testing program.

 

The Company anticipates that future profits, if any, will be derived from direct sales of RadioGel (under the name IsoPet®) and related services, and from licensing to private medical and veterinary clinics in the U.S. and internationally. The Company intends to report the results from the IsoPet® Solutions division as a separate operating segment in accordance with GAAP.

 

Commencing in July 2019, the Company recognized its first commercial sale of IsoPet®. A veterinarian from Alaska brought his cat with a re-occurrent spindle cell sarcoma tumor on his face. The cat had previously received external beam therapy, but now the tumor was growing rapidly. He was given a high dose of 400Gy with heavy therapy at the margins. This sale met the revenue recognition requirements under ASC 606 as the performance obligation was satisfied. The Company completed sales for an additional four animals that received the IsoPet® during 2019.

 

Our plan is to incorporate the data assembled from our work with Isopet® in animal therapy to support the Company’s efforts in the development of our RadioGel device candidate, including obtaining approval from the FDA to market and sell RadioGel as a Class II medical device. RadioGel is an injectable particle-gel for brachytherapy radiation treatment of cancerous tumors in people and animals. RadioGel is comprised of a hydrogel, or a substance that is liquid at room temperature and then gels when reaching body temperature after injection into a tumor. In the gel are small, less than two microns, yttrium-90 phosphate particles (“Y-90”). Once injected, these inert particles are locked in place inside the tumor by the gel, delivering a very high local radiation dose. The radiation is beta, consisting of high-speed electrons. These electrons only travel a short distance so the device can deliver high radiation to the tumor with minimal dose to the surrounding tissue. Optimally, patients can go home immediately following treatment without the risk of radiation exposure to family members. Since Y-90 has a half-life of 2.7 days, the radioactivity drops to 5% of its original value after ten days.

 

The Company modified its Indication for Use from skin cancel to cancerous tissue or solid tumors pathologically associated with locoregional papillary thyroid carcinoma and recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma having discernable tumors associated with metastatic lymph nodes or extranodal disease in patients who are not surgical candidates or who have declined surgery, or patients who require post-surgical remnant ablation (for example, after prior incomplete radioiodine therapy). Papillary thyroid carcinoma belongs to the general class of head and neck tumors for which tumors are accessible by intraoperative direct needle injection. The Company’s Medical Advisory Board felt that demonstrating efficacy in clinical trials was much easier with this new indication.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Our original license with Battelle National Laboratory is reached its end of life in 2022. During the past several years, in anticipation of this we have expanded our proprietary knowledge, our trademark and patent protection.

 

Our RadioGel trademark protection is in 17 countries. We have expanded our trademark protection from RadioGel to now include IsoPet. We obtained the International Certificate of Registration for ISOPET, which is the first step to file in several countries.

 

The Company received the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) International Search Report on our patent application (No.1811.191). Seven of our claims were immediately ruled as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability. This gives us the basis to extend for many years the patent protection for our proprietary Yttrium-90 phosphate particles utilized in Isopet® and Radiogel™.

 

F-7
 

 

Our patent team filed our particle patent in more than ten patent offices that collectively cover 63 countries throughout the world. We filed a continuation-in-part applications number 1774054 in the USA to expand the claims on our particle patent. The US Patent office recently gave us the Notice of Allowance for our patent to produce our yttrium phosphate microparticles, US Patent Application Serial No: 16-459,466. We also filed an amendment to correct the wording on our claims at make them consistent with the USE claims. Ref: 4207-0005; European Patent Application NO. 20 834 229.5; VIVOS INC; Our Ref: FS/53791.

 

We filed a hydrogel utility patent in the USA (16309:17/943,311) and internationally (16389:PCT/US22/4374) based on the last eighteen months of development work to optimize our hydrogel component. These include reducing the polymer production time and increasing the output by a factor of three. We have also further reduced the level of trace contaminants to be well below the FDA guidelines.

 

We filed a provisional patent (Serial Number 63436562) to protect our innovative improvements in our shipping container, our vial shield, our syringe shield, and our Peltier chiller. Our objectives were to reduce shipping costs, decrease radiation exposure, and enhance sterility. These devices will be preferentially used at Mayo Clinics for human clinical studies at and our IsoPet regional treatment centers.

 

We anticipate that Precison Radionuclide Therapy will become increasingly important in the future and expand to other isotope and other indications for use. Therefore, we filed an alternate particle utility patent (Serial number 18/152,137). Vivos Inc will focus its near-term effort on the Yttrium-90 therapy, which we believe is the best beta emitter; however, we leveraged our hydrogel utility patent to incorporate other promising isotopes and compounds for a range of future applications. This includes gamma and alpha particle emitters.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses and used significant cash in support of its operating activities and the Company’s cash position is not sufficient to support the Company’s operations. Research and development of the Company’s brachytherapy product line has been funded with proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities as well as a series of grants. The Company requires funding of approximately $2.5 million annually to maintain current operating activities.

 

The Company completed its reverse stock split which was approved by FINRA and went effective on June 28, 2019.

 

The Company’s stock offering under Regulation A+ was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 3, 2020. A second Regulation A+ was qualified by the SEC on September 15, 2021 to raise capital for 50,000,000 shares at a price of $0.10 for a maximum of $5,000,000. The Company amended this and was able to raise $1,200,000 in July 2022 at $0.08 per share (15,000,000 shares) and sold 20,000,000 warrants for $20,000. An amended Regulation A+ was filed in October 2022 to raise the remaining $3,800,000 of the $5,000,000. In April 2023, $640,000 was raised in the issuance of 8,000,000 common shares, 2,665,000 Series A warrants and 8,000,000 Series B warrants along with $10,665 in the sale of the warrants.

 

The Company’s Regulation A+’s raised approximately $5,200,000 from the sale of shares and is using the proceeds generated as follows:

 

For the animal therapy market:

 

  Fund the effort to communicate the benefits of IsoPet® to the veterinary community and the pet parents.
  Conduct additional clinical studies to generate more data for the veterinary community
  Subsidize some IsoPet® therapies, if necessary, to ensure that all viable candidates are treated.
  Assist new regional clinics with their license and certification training.

 

F-8
 

 

For the human market:

 

  Enhance the pedigree of the Quality Management System.
  Complete the previously defined pre-clinical testing and additional testing on an animal model closely aligned with our revised indication for use. Report the results to the FDA in a pre-submission meeting.
  Use the feedback from that meeting to write the IDE (Investigational Device Exemption), which is required to initiate clinical trials.

 

Research and development of the Company’s brachytherapy product line has been funded with proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities. The Company may require additional funding of approximately $2.5 million annually to maintain current operating activities. Over the next 12 to 48 months, the Company believes it will cost approximately $9 million to: (1) fund the FDA approval process to conduct human clinical trials, (2) conduct Phase I, pilot, clinical trials, (3) activate several regional clinics to administer IsoPet® across the county, (4) create an independent production center within the current production site to create a template for future international manufacturing, and (5) initiate regulatory approval processes outside of the United States. The proceeds to be raised from the recent qualified Regulation A+ will be used to continue to fund this development.

 

The continued deployment of the brachytherapy products and a worldwide regulatory approval effort will require additional resources and personnel. The principal variables in the timing and amount of spending for the brachytherapy products in the next 12 to 24 months will be the FDA’s classification of the Company’s brachytherapy products as Class II or Class III devices (or otherwise) and any requirements for additional studies which may possibly include clinical studies. Thereafter, the principal variables in the amount of the Company’s spending and its financing requirements would be the timing of any approvals and the nature of the Company’s arrangements with third parties for manufacturing, sales, distribution and licensing of those products and the products’ success in the U.S. and elsewhere. The Company intends to fund its activities through strategic transactions such as licensing and partnership agreements or from proceeds to be raised from the recent qualified Regulation A+.

 

Following receipt of required regulatory approvals and financing, in the U.S., the Company intends to outsource material aspects of manufacturing, distribution, sales and marketing. Outside of the U.S., the Company intends to pursue licensing arrangements and/or partnerships to facilitate its global commercialization strategy.

 

In the longer-term, subject to the Company receiving adequate funding, regulatory approval for RadioGel and other brachytherapy products, and thereafter being able to successfully commercialize its brachytherapy products, the Company intends to consider resuming research efforts with respect to other products and technologies intended to help improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other illnesses.

 

Based on the Company’s financial history since inception, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has limited revenue, nominal cash, and has accumulated deficits since inception. If the Company cannot obtain sufficient additional capital, the Company will be required to delay the implementation of its business strategy and may not be able to continue operations.

 

The Company has been impacted from the effects of COVID-19. The Company’s headquarters are in Northeast Washington however there focus of the animal therapy market has been the Northwestern sector of the United States. The Company continues their marketing to the animal therapy market and attempt to increase the exposure to their product and generate revenue accordingly.

 

As of June 30, 2023, the Company has $1,748,767 cash on hand. There are currently commitments to vendors for products and services purchased. To continue the development of the Company’s products, the current level of cash may not be enough to cover the fixed and variable obligations of the Company.

 

There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or to do so at an advantageous price.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. The Company plans to seek additional funding to maintain its operations through debt and equity financing and to improve operating performance through a focus on strategic products and increased efficiencies in business processes and improvements to the cost structure. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to raise additional working capital or achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

F-9
 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates the Company considers include criteria for stock-based compensation expense, and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Financial Statement Reclassification

 

Certain account balances from prior periods have been reclassified in these financial statements so as to conform to current period classifications.

 

Cash Equivalents

 

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

The Company occasionally maintains cash balances in excess of the FDIC insured limit. The Company does not consider this risk to be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value of financial instruments requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balances reported for cash, prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

 

Fair value is defined as 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. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

The Company measures certain financial instruments including options and warrants issued during the period at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

F-10
 

 

Patents and Intellectual Property

 

While patents are being developed or pending, they are not being amortized. Management has determined that the economic life of the patents to be ten years and amortization, over such 10-year period and on a straight-line basis will begin once the patents have been issued and the Company begins utilization of the patents through production and sales, resulting in revenues.

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets, including patents and intellectual property on a continual basis. Several factors are used to evaluate intangibles, including, but not limited to, management’s plans for future operations, recent operating results and projected and expected undiscounted future cash flows.

 

There have been no such capitalized costs in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. However, a patent was filed on July 1, 2019 (No. 1811.191) filed by Michael Korenko and David Swanberg and assigned to the Company based on the Company’s proprietary particle manufacturing process. The timing of this filing was important given the Company’s plans to make IsoPet® commercially available, which it did on or about July 9, 2019. This additional patent protection will strengthen the Company’s competitive position. It is the Company’s intention to further extend this patent protection to several key countries within one year, as permitted under international patent laws and treaties.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method.

 

F-11
 

 

Under ASC 606, in order to recognize revenue, the Company is required to identify an approved contract with commitments to preform respective obligations, identify rights of each party in the transaction regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has commercial substance and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have an impact on the Company’s operations or cash flows.

 

The Company recognized revenue as they (i) identified the contracts with each customer; (ii) identified the performance obligation in each contract; (iii) determined the transaction price in each contract; (iv) were able to allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognized revenue upon the satisfaction of the performance obligation. Upon the sales of the product to complete the procedures on the animals, the Company recognized revenue as that was considered the performance obligation.

 

All revenue recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 relate to consulting income with respect to the IsoPet® therapies.

 

Loss Per Share

 

The Company accounts for its loss per common share by replacing primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period, and does not include the impact of any potentially dilutive common stock equivalents since the impact would be anti-dilutive. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares had been issued. For the given periods of loss, of the periods ended in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the basic earnings per share equals the diluted earnings per share.

 

The following represent common stock equivalents that could be dilutive in the future as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, which include the following:

 

   June 30, 2023   December 31, 2022 
Preferred stock   9,909,570    9,909,570 
Restricted stock units   28,262,500    25,362,500 
Common stock options   2,252,809    2,252,809 
Common stock warrants   25,665,000    26,737,500 
Total potential dilutive securities   66,089,879    64,762,379 

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and developments costs, including salaries, research materials, administrative expenses and contractor fees, are charged to operations as incurred. The cost of equipment used in research and development activities which has alternative uses is capitalized as part of fixed assets and not treated as an expense in the period acquired. Depreciation of capitalized equipment used to perform research and development is classified as research and development expense in the year computed.

 

The Company incurred $219,728 and $241,301 in research and development costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, all of which were recorded in the Company’s operating expenses noted on the statements of operations for the periods then ended.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred except for the cost of tradeshows which are deferred until the tradeshow occurs. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred nominal advertising and marketing costs.

Contingencies

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in legal proceedings involving contractual and employment relationships, product liability claims, patent rights, and a variety of other matters. The Company records contingent liabilities resulting from asserted and unasserted claims against it, when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. The Company discloses contingent liabilities when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded liability. Estimated probable losses require analysis of multiple factors, in some cases including judgments about the potential actions of third-party claimants and courts. Therefore, actual losses in any future period are inherently uncertain. The Company has entered into various agreements that require them to pay certain fees to consultants and/or employees that have been fully accrued for as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Income Taxes

 

To address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions, the Company clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. The Company also provides guidance on de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest, and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. The Company did not have any tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Company did not have any deferred tax liability or asset on its balance sheets on June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Interest costs and penalties related to income taxes, if any, will be classified as interest expense and general and administrative costs, respectively, in the Company’s financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalty expense related to income taxes. The Company believes that it is not reasonably possible for the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes compensation costs under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation and ASU 2018-07. Companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Vivos, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Vivos, Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses, has utilized significant cash in operations, and its cash position is not sufficient to support operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Equity Transactions (Notes 4 and 5 to the financial statements)

 

Description of the Critical Audit Matter

 

The Company’s evaluation of common shares issuances, including in exchange for stock warrants involved complexity and judgement in applying the relevant accounting standards when auditing management’s conclusions on the classification and recognition of warrants on issuance and on exercise and equity transactions upon issuance.

 

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

 

Our principal audit procedures to evaluate management’s calculation and recording of common share issuances included the following:

 

We evaluated the appropriateness and consistency of management’s methods and assumptions used in the identification, recognition, measurement, and disclosure of considerations of the underlying warrants and share issuances during the year, including the classification with respect to the terms and in considering applicable generally accepted accounting standards.
We read the applicable agreements and compared the key terms to management’s analysis of the transaction.
We read, evaluated, and tested the reasonableness of management’s calculation utilized in the determination of common shares issued, including exchange for stock warrants.
We evaluated whether management had appropriately considered new information that could significantly change the measurement or disclosure of common shares issued including exchange for stock warrants, and evaluated the disclosures related to the financial statement impacts of the transactions.
We reviewed current and subsequent period accounting records and third-party documentation to identify unrecorded equity transactions.

 

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2016.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2022 and 2021

 

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Business Overview

 

The Company was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on December 23, 1994 as Savage Mountain Sports Corporation (“SMSC”). On September 6, 2006, the Company changed its name to Advanced Medical Isotope Corporation, and on December 28, 2017, the Company began operating as Vivos Inc. The Company has authorized capital of 950,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.

 

Our principal place of business is located at 719 Jadwin Avenue, Richland, WA 99352. Our telephone number is (509) 736-4000. Our corporate website address is http://www.radiogel.com. Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “RDGL.”

 

The Company is a radiation oncology medical device company engaged in the development of its yttrium-90 based brachytherapy device, RadioGel, for the treatment of non-resectable tumors. A prominent team of radiochemists, scientists and engineers, collaborating with strategic partners, including national laboratories, universities and private corporations, lead the Company’s development efforts. The Company’s overall vision is to globally empower physicians, medical researchers and patients by providing them with new isotope technologies that offer safe and effective treatments for cancer.

 

In January 2018, the Center for Veterinary Medicine Product Classification Group ruled that RadioGel should be classified as a device for animal therapy of feline sarcomas and canine soft tissue sarcomas. Additionally, after a legal review, the Company believes that the device classification obtained from the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) Center for Veterinary Medicine is not limited to canine and feline sarcomas, but rather may be extended to a much broader population of veterinary cancers, including all or most solid tumors in animals. We expect the result of such classification and label review will be that no additional regulatory approvals are necessary for the use of IsoPet® for the treatment of solid tumors in animals. The FDA does not have premarket authority over devices with a veterinary classification, and the manufacturers are responsible for assuring that the product is safe, effective, properly labeled, and otherwise in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

 

Based on the FDA’s recommendation, RadioGel will be marketed as “IsoPet®” for use by veterinarians to avoid any confusion between animal and human therapy. The Company already has trademark protection for the “IsoPet®” name. IsoPet® and RadioGel are used synonymously throughout this document. The only distinction between IsoPet® and RadioGel is the FDA’s recommendation that we use “IsoPet®” for veterinarian usage, and reserve “RadioGel™” for human therapy. Based on these developments, the Company has shifted its primary focus to the development and marketing of Isopet® for animal therapy, through the Company’s IsoPet® Solutions division.

 

IsoPet Solutions

 

The Company’s IsoPet Solutions division was established in May 2016 to focus on the veterinary oncology market, namely engagement of university veterinarian hospital to develop the detailed therapy procedures to treat animal tumors and ultimately use of the technology in private clinics. The Company has worked with three different university veterinarian hospitals on IsoPet® testing and therapy. Washington State University treated five cats for feline sarcoma and served to develop the procedures which are incorporated in our label. They concluded that the product was safe and effective in killing cancer cells. Colorado State University demonstrated the CT and PET-CT imaging of IsoPet®. A contract was signed with University of Missouri to treat canine sarcomas and equine sarcoids starting in November 2017.

 

The dogs were treated for canine soft tissue sarcoma. Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (“RECIST”) is a set of published rules that define when tumors in cancer patients improve (respond), stay the same (stabilize), or worsen (progress) during treatment. The criteria were published by an international collaboration including the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (“EORTC”), National Cancer Institute of the United States, and the National Cancer Institute of Canada Clinical Trials Group.

 

F-28
 

 

The testing at the University of Missouri met its objective to demonstrate the safety of IsoPet®. Using its advanced CT and PET equipment it was able to demonstrate that the dose calculations were accurate and that the injections perfused into the cell interstices and did not stay concentrated in a bolus. This results in a more homogeneous dose distribution. There was insignificant spread of Y-90 outside the points of injection demonstrating the effectiveness of the particles and the gel to localize the radiation with no spreading to the blood or other organs nor to urine or fecal material. This confirms that IsoPet® is safe for same day therapy.

 

The effectiveness of IsoPet® for life extension was not the prime objective, but it resulted in valuable insights. Of the cases one is still cancer-free but the others eventually recurred since there was not a strong focus on treating the margins. The University of Missouri has agreed to become a regional center to administer IsoPet® therapy and will incorporate the improvements suggested by the testing program.

 

The Company anticipates that future profits, if any, will be derived from direct sales of RadioGel (under the name IsoPet®) and related services, and from licensing to private medical and veterinary clinics in the U.S. and internationally. The Company intends to report the results from the IsoPet® Solutions division as a separate operating segment in accordance with GAAP.

 

Commencing in July 2019, the Company recognized its first commercial sale of IsoPet®. A veterinarian from Alaska brought his cat with a re-occurrent spindle cell sarcoma tumor on his face. The cat had previously received external beam therapy, but now the tumor was growing rapidly. He was given a high dose of 400Gy with heavy therapy at the margins. This sale met the revenue recognition requirements under ASC 606 as the performance obligation was satisfied. The Company completed sales for an additional four animals that received the IsoPet® during 2019.

 

Our plan is to incorporate the data assembled from our work with Isopet® in animal therapy to support the Company’s efforts in the development of our RadioGel device candidate, including obtaining approval from the FDA to market and sell RadioGel as a Class II medical device. RadioGel is an injectable particle-gel for brachytherapy radiation treatment of cancerous tumors in people and animals. RadioGel is comprised of a hydrogel, or a substance that is liquid at room temperature and then gels when reaching body temperature after injection into a tumor. In the gel are small, less than two microns, yttrium-90 phosphate particles (“Y-90”). Once injected, these inert particles are locked in place inside the tumor by the gel, delivering a very high local radiation dose. The radiation is beta, consisting of high-speed electrons. These electrons only travel a short distance so the device can deliver high radiation to the tumor with minimal dose to the surrounding tissue. Optimally, patients can go home immediately following treatment without the risk of radiation exposure to family members. Since Y-90 has a half-life of 2.7 days, the radioactivity drops to 5% of its original value after ten days.

 

The Company modified its Indication for Use from skin cancel to cancerous tissue or solid tumors pathologically associated with locoregional papillary thyroid carcinoma and recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma having discernable tumors associated with metastatic lymph nodes or extranodal disease in patients who are not surgical candidates or who have declined surgery, or patients who require post-surgical remnant ablation (for example, after prior incomplete radioiodine therapy). Papillary thyroid carcinoma belongs to the general class of head and neck tumors for which tumors are accessible by intraoperative direct needle injection. The Company’s Medical Advisory Board felt that demonstrating efficacy in clinical trials was much easier with this new indication.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Our original license with Battelle National Laboratory is reached its end of life in 2022. During the past several years, in anticipation of this we have expanded our proprietary knowledge, our trademark and patent protection.

 

Our RadioGel trademark protection is in 17 countries. We have expanded our trademark protection from RadioGel to now include IsoPet. We obtained the International Certificate of Registration for ISOPET, which is the first step to file in several countries.

 

The Company received the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) International Search Report on our patent application (No.1811.191). Seven of our claims were immediately ruled as having novelty, inventive step and industrial applicability. This gives us the basis to extend for many years the patent protection for our proprietary Yttrium-90 phosphate particles utilized in Isopet® and Radiogel™.

 

Our patent team filed our particle patent in more than ten patent offices that collectively cover 63 countries throughout the world. We filed a continuation-in-part applications number 1774054 in the USA to expand the claims on our particle patent. The US Patent office recently gave us the Notice of Allowance for our patent to produce our yttrium phosphate microparticles, US Patent Application Serial No: 16-459,466. We also filed an amendment to correct the wording on our claims at make them consistent with the USE claims.

We filed a hydrogel utility patent in the USA (16309:17/943,311) and internationally (16389:PCT/US22/4374) based on the last eighteen months of development work to optimize our hydrogel component. These include reducing the polymer production time and increasing the output by a factor of three. We have also further reduced the level of trace contaminants to be well below the FDA guidelines.

 

We filed a provisional patent (Serial Number 63436562) to protect our innovative improvements in our shipping container, our vial shield, our syringe shield, and our Peltier chiller. Our objectives were to reduce shipping costs, decrease radiation exposure, and enhance sterility. These devices will be preferentially used at Mayo Clinics for human clinical studies at and our IsoPet regional treatment centers.

 

We anticipate that Precison Radionuclide Therapy will become increasingly important in the future and expand to other isotope and other indications for use. Therefore, we filed an alternate particle utility patent (Serial number 18/152,137). Vivos Inc will focus its near-term effort on the Yttrium-90 therapy, which we believe is the best beta emitter; however, we leveraged our hydrogel utility patent to incorporate other promising isotopes and compounds for a range of future applications. This includes gamma and alpha particle emitters.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses and used significant cash in support of its operating activities and the Company’s cash position is not sufficient to support the Company’s operations. Research and development of the Company’s brachytherapy product line has been funded with proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities as well as a series of grants. The Company requires funding of approximately $2.5 million annually to maintain current operating activities.

 

The Company completed its reverse stock split which was approved by FINRA and went effective on June 28, 2019.

 

The Company’s stock offering under Regulation A+ was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 3, 2020. A second Regulation A+ was qualified by the SEC on September 15, 2021 to raise capital for 50,000,000 shares at a price of $0.10 for a maximum of $5,000,000. The Company amended this and was able to raise $1,200,000 in July 2022 at $0.08 per share (15,000,000 shares) and sold 20,000,000 warrants for $20,000. An amended Regulation A+ was filed in October 2022 to raise the remaining $3,800,000 of the $5,000,000.

 

The Company’s Regulation A+’s raised approximately $5,200,000 from the sale of shares and is using the proceeds generated as follows:

 

For the animal therapy market:

 

  Fund the effort to communicate the benefits of IsoPet® to the veterinary community and the pet parents.
  Conduct additional clinical studies to generate more data for the veterinary community
  Subsidize some IsoPet® therapies, if necessary, to ensure that all viable candidates are treated.
  Assist new regional clinics with their license and certification training.

 

For the human market:

 

  Enhance the pedigree of the Quality Management System.
  Complete the previously defined pre-clinical testing and additional testing on an animal model closely aligned with our revised indication for use. Report the results to the FDA in a pre-submission meeting.
  Use the feedback from that meeting to write the IDE (Investigational Device Exemption), which is required to initiate clinical trials.

 

Research and development of the Company’s brachytherapy product line has been funded with proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities. The Company may require additional funding of approximately $2.5 million annually to maintain current operating activities. Over the next 12 to 48 months, the Company believes it will cost approximately $9 million to: (1) fund the FDA approval process to conduct human clinical trials, (2) conduct Phase I, pilot, clinical trials, (3) activate several regional clinics to administer IsoPet® across the county, (4) create an independent production center within the current production site to create a template for future international manufacturing, and (5) initiate regulatory approval processes outside of the United States. The proceeds to be raised from the recent qualified Regulation A+ will be used to continue to fund this development.

 

F-30
 

 

The continued deployment of the brachytherapy products and a worldwide regulatory approval effort will require additional resources and personnel. The principal variables in the timing and amount of spending for the brachytherapy products in the next 12 to 24 months will be the FDA’s classification of the Company’s brachytherapy products as Class II or Class III devices (or otherwise) and any requirements for additional studies which may possibly include clinical studies. Thereafter, the principal variables in the amount of the Company’s spending and its financing requirements would be the timing of any approvals and the nature of the Company’s arrangements with third parties for manufacturing, sales, distribution and licensing of those products and the products’ success in the U.S. and elsewhere. The Company intends to fund its activities through strategic transactions such as licensing and partnership agreements or from proceeds to be raised from the recent qualified Regulation A+.

 

Following receipt of required regulatory approvals and financing, in the U.S., the Company intends to outsource material aspects of manufacturing, distribution, sales and marketing. Outside of the U.S., the Company intends to pursue licensing arrangements and/or partnerships to facilitate its global commercialization strategy.

 

In the longer-term, subject to the Company receiving adequate funding, regulatory approval for RadioGel and other brachytherapy products, and thereafter being able to successfully commercialize its brachytherapy products, the Company intends to consider resuming research efforts with respect to other products and technologies intended to help improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other illnesses.

 

Based on the Company’s financial history since inception, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has limited revenue, nominal cash, and has accumulated deficits since inception. If the Company cannot obtain sufficient additional capital, the Company will be required to delay the implementation of its business strategy and may not be able to continue operations.

 

The Company has been impacted from the effects of COVID-19. The Company’s headquarters are in Northeast Washington however there focus of the animal therapy market has been the Northwestern sector of the United States. The Company continues their marketing to the animal therapy market and attempt to increase the exposure to their product and generate revenue accordingly.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company has $1,706,065 cash on hand. There are currently commitments to vendors for products and services purchased. To continue the development of the Company’s products, the current level of cash may not be enough to cover the fixed and variable obligations of the Company.

 

There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or to do so at an advantageous price.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. The Company plans to seek additional funding to maintain its operations through debt and equity financing and to improve operating performance through a focus on strategic products and increased efficiencies in business processes and improvements to the cost structure. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to raise additional working capital or achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates the Company considers include criteria for stock-based compensation expense, and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Financial Statement Reclassification

 

Certain account balances from prior periods have been reclassified in these financial statements so as to conform to current period classifications.

 

F-31
 

 

Cash Equivalents

 

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

The Company occasionally maintains cash balances in excess of the FDIC insured limit. The Company does not consider this risk to be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value of financial instruments requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the balances reported for cash, prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

 

Fair value is defined as 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. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

The Company measures certain financial instruments including options and warrants issued during the period at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Production equipment with a cost of $2,500 or greater and other fixed assets with a cost of $1,500 or greater are capitalized. Major betterments that extend the useful lives of assets are also capitalized. Normal maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations.

 

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Production equipment:   3 to 7 years
Office equipment:   2 to 5 years
Furniture and fixtures:   2 to 5 years

 

Leasehold improvements and capital lease assets are amortized over the shorter of the life of the lease or the estimated life of the asset.

 

Management of the Company reviews the net carrying value of all of its equipment on an asset by asset basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. These reviews consider the net realizable value of each asset, as measured in accordance with the preceding paragraph, to determine whether impairment in value has occurred, and the need for any asset impairment write-down.

 

F-32
 

 

License Fees

 

License fees are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization of license fees is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful life of the assets. The Battelle Memorial Institute licensing contract is completed.

 

Patents and Intellectual Property

 

While patents are being developed or pending, they are not being amortized. Management has determined that the economic life of the patents to be ten years and amortization, over such 10-year period and on a straight-line basis will begin once the patents have been issued and the Company begins utilization of the patents through production and sales, resulting in revenues.

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets, including patents and intellectual property on a continual basis. Several factors are used to evaluate intangibles, including, but not limited to, management’s plans for future operations, recent operating results and projected and expected undiscounted future cash flows.

 

There have been no such capitalized costs in the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. However, a patent was filed on July 1, 2019 (No. 1811.191) filed by Michael Korenko and David Swanberg and assigned to the Company based on the Company’s proprietary particle manufacturing process. The timing of this filing was important given the Company’s plans to make IsoPet® commercially available, which it did on or about July 9, 2019. This additional patent protection will strengthen the Company’s competitive position. It is the Company’s intention to further extend this patent protection to several key countries within one year, as permitted under international patent laws and treaties.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method.

 

Under ASC 606, in order to recognize revenue, the Company is required to identify an approved contract with commitments to preform respective obligations, identify rights of each party in the transaction regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has commercial substance and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have an impact on the Company’s operations or cash flows.

 

The Company recognized revenue as they (i) identified the contracts with each customer; (ii) identified the performance obligation in each contract; (iii) determined the transaction price in each contract; (iv) were able to allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognized revenue upon the satisfaction of the performance obligation. Upon the sales of the product to complete the procedures on the animals, the Company recognized revenue as that was considered the performance obligation.

 

All revenue recognized in the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 relate to consulting income with respect to the IsoPet® therapies.

 

Loss Per Share

 

The Company accounts for its loss per common share by replacing primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period, and does not include the impact of any potentially dilutive common stock equivalents since the impact would be anti-dilutive. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares had been issued. For the given periods of loss, of the periods ended in the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the basic earnings per share equals the diluted earnings per share.

 

F-33
 

 

The following represent common stock equivalents that could be dilutive in the future as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, which include the following:

   December 31, 2022   December 31, 2021 
Preferred stock   9,909,570    9,909,570 
Restricted stock units   25,862,500    25,262,500 
Common stock options   2,252,809    2,252,809 
Common stock warrants   26,737,500    31,862,500 
Total potential dilutive securities   64,762,379    69,287,379 

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and developments costs, including salaries, research materials, administrative expenses and contractor fees, are charged to operations as incurred. The cost of equipment used in research and development activities which has alternative uses is capitalized as part of fixed assets and not treated as an expense in the period acquired. Depreciation of capitalized equipment used to perform research and development is classified as research and development expense in the year computed.

 

The Company incurred $343,802 and $286,848 in research and development costs for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, all of which were recorded in the Company’s operating expenses noted on the statements of operations for the periods then ended.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred except for the cost of tradeshows which are deferred until the tradeshow occurs. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred nominal advertising and marketing costs.

 

Contingencies

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in legal proceedings involving contractual and employment relationships, product liability claims, patent rights, and a variety of other matters. The Company records contingent liabilities resulting from asserted and unasserted claims against it, when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. The Company discloses contingent liabilities when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded liability. Estimated probable losses require analysis of multiple factors, in some cases including judgments about the potential actions of third-party claimants and courts. Therefore, actual losses in any future period are inherently uncertain. The Company has entered into various agreements that require them to pay certain fees to consultants and/or employees that have been fully accrued for as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

 

Income Taxes

 

To address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions, the Company clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. The Company also provides guidance on de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest, and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. The Company did not have any tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company did not have any deferred tax liability or asset on its balance sheets on December 31, 2022 and 2021.

 

Interest costs and penalties related to income taxes, if any, will be classified as interest expense and general and administrative costs, respectively, in the Company’s financial statements. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalty expense related to income taxes. The Company believes that it is not reasonably possible for the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.

 

F-34
 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes compensation costs under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation and ASU 2018-07. Companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contract’s in an Entity’s Own Equity. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. The ASU simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2021, and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has determined that this pronouncement does not have a material impact on its financial statements.

 

The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Convertible Preferred”)

 

In June 2015, the Series A Certificate of Designation was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State to designate 2.5 million shares of our preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred. Effective March 31, 2016, the Company amended the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred of the Registrant, increasing the maximum number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred from 2,500,000 shares to 5,000,000 shares.

In March 2019, the Series C Certificate of Designation was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State to designate 5.0 million shares of our preferred stock as Series C Convertible Preferred. The following summarizes the current rights and preferences of the Series C Convertible Preferred:

 

Liquidation Preference. The Series C Convertible Preferred has a liquidation preference of $1.00 per share.

 

Dividends. Shares of Series C Convertible Preferred do not have any separate dividend rights.

 

Conversion. Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Series C Certificate of Designation, each share of Series C Convertible Preferred is convertible, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of common stock (the “Series C Conversion Shares”) equal to the liquidation preference thereof, divided by Conversion Price (as such term is defined in the Series C Certificate of Designation), currently $0.08.

 

The Series C Convertible Preferred will only be convertible at any time after the date that the Company shall have amended its Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance thereunder or effect a reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of common stock by a sufficient amount to permit the conversion of all Series C Convertible Preferred into shares of common stock (“Authorized Share Approval”) (such date, the “Initial Convertibility Date”), each share of Series C Convertible Preferred shall be convertible into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth in the Series C Certificate of Designation under the definition “Conversion Rights”.

 

Redemption. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Series C Certificate of Designation, in the event of a Change of Control (defined in the Series C Certificate of Designation as the time at which as a third party not affiliated with the Company or any holders of the Series C Convertible Preferred shall have acquired, in one or a series of related transactions, equity securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company), the Company, at its option, will have the right to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding Series C Convertible Preferred in cash at a price per share of Series C Convertible Preferred equal to 100% of the Liquidation Preference.

Voting Rights. Holders of Series C Convertible Preferred are entitled to vote on all matters, together with the holders of common stock, and have the equivalent of thirty-two (32) votes for every Series C Conversion Share issuable upon conversion of such holder’s outstanding shares of Series C Convertible Preferred. However, the Series C Conversion Shares, when issued, will have all the same voting rights as other issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, and none of the rights of the Series C Convertible Preferred.

 

Liquidation. Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary (a “Liquidation”), the holders of Series C Convertible Preferred shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company an amount equal to the liquidation preference of the Series C Convertible Preferred before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any junior securities, and if the assets of the Company is insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the entire assets to be distributed to the holders of the Series C Convertible Preferred shall be ratably distributed among the holders in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

 

Certain Price and Share Adjustments.

 

a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of common stock on shares of common stock or any other common stock equivalents; (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of common stock into a larger number of shares; (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of common stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the common stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the conversion price shall be adjusted accordingly.

 

b) Merger or Reorganization. If the Company is involved in any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property than each share of Series C Convertible Preferred shall be convertible into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that a holder of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series C Convertible Preferred prior to any such merger or reorganization would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction.

NOTE 6: COMMITMENT

 

On June 4, 2019, the Company entered into an Executive Employment Agreement (“Employment Agreement”) with Dr. Michael K. Korenko, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The employment term under the Employment Agreement commenced with an effective date of June 11, 2019 and expires on December 31, 2020, and December 31 of each successive year if the Employment Agreement is extended, unless terminated earlier as set forth in the Employment Agreement. The Company on December 31, 2020 extended this agreement through December 31, 2021 while renegotiating terms of a new Employment Agreement. On May 3, 2021, the Company and the Chief Executive Officer agreed the terms of a new Employment Agreement with an effective date of January 1, 2021 that has a term of three years and expires December 31, 2023.

 

Under the terms of the Employment Agreement, the Company shall pay to Dr. Korenko a base compensation of $225,000. In addition, there is a discretionary bonus to be earned in the amount of $7,500 per quarter upon the satisfaction of conditions to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

NOTE 7: INCOME TAXES

 

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

 

           
   December 31, 2022   December 31, 2021 
Deferred tax assets:          
Net operating loss carryover  $6,500,000   $6,280,000 
Capital Loss Carryover   3,400    3,400 
Valuation allowance   (6,503,400)   (6,283,400)
Net deferred tax asset  $-   $- 

 

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate to pretax income from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 due to the following:

 

           
   December 31, 2022   December 31, 2021 
Book income (loss)  $(518,700)  $(530,800)
Forgiveness of debt   -    (28,700)
Depreciation   (1,100)   (1,100)
Related party accrual   -    (6,400)
Stock for services   291,800    339,700 
Other non-deductible expenses   10,500    25,700 
Valuation allowance   217,500    201,600 
Income tax expense  $-   $- 

 

At December 31, 2022, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $30,955,700.

 

Topic 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements. Topic 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. At the adoption date of January 1, 2007, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit, which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized.

 

The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. The Company is located in the state of Washington and Washington state does not require the filing of income taxes. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2017.

Re: Offering Statement on Form 1-A for Vivos Inc.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel to Vivos Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Offering Statement on Form 1-A (the “Offering Statement”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) registering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Offering Statement relates to the proposed sale of up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”).

 

We have examined copies of such corporate records and made such inquiries as we have deemed necessary for purposes of rendering the opinion set forth below.

 

Based upon the foregoing, in our opinion, the shares of Common Stock, when issued in the manner contemplated by the Plan, will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

In rendering the opinion set forth above, we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America.

 

We hereby consent to the filing of a copy of this opinion with the Commission as an exhibit to the Offering Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

 

  Very truly yours,
   
  /s/ Disclosure Law Group
  Disclosure Law Group, a Professional Corporation
