NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for Hepion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are characterized by future or conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” believe,” “estimate” and “continue” or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. Such statements are only predictions and our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed under Item 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2022. These factors include the uncertainties associated with product development, the risk that products that appeared promising in early clinical trials do not demonstrate safety and efficacy in larger-scale clinical trials, the risk that we will not obtain approval to market our products, the risks associated with dependence upon key personnel and the need for additional financing. We do not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements as circumstances change and thus you should not unduly rely on these statements. Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.

1. Business Overview
Hepion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (we, our, or us) is a biopharmaceutical company headquartered in Edison, New Jersey, focused on the development of drug therapy for treatment of chronic liver diseases. This therapeutic approach targets fibrosis, inflammation, and shows potential for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (“HCC”) associated with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”), viral hepatitis, and other liver diseases. Our cyclophilin inhibitor, Rencofilstat (formerly CRV431), is being developed to offer benefits to address multiple complex pathologies related to advanced liver disease. Rencofilstat is a cyclophilin inhibitor that targets multiple pathologic pathways involved in the progression of liver disease.
We are developing Rencofilstat as our lead molecule. Rencofilstat is a compound that binds and inhibits the function of a specific class of isomerase enzymes called cyclophilins that regulate protein folding. Many closely related isoforms of cyclophilins exist in humans. Cyclophilins A, B, and D are the best characterized cyclophilin isoforms. Inhibition of cyclophilins has been shown in the scientific literature to have therapeutic effects in a variety of experimental models, including liver disease models.
On May 10, 2018, we submitted an Investigational New Drug Application (“IND”) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to support initiation of our Rencofilstat HBV clinical development program in the United States and received approval in June 2018. We completed the first segment of our Phase 1 clinical activities for Rencofilstat in October 2018 wherein we reached a major clinical milestone of positive data from a Phase I trial of Rencofilstat in humans. This achievement triggered the first milestone payment, as stated in the May 26, 2016 acquisition agreement between the Company and Ciclofilin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Ciclofilin”) (the “Merger Agreement") for the acquisition of Ciclofilin and we paid a related milestone payment of approximately $0.3 million to Aurinia Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Aurinia") and $0.7 million to the former Ciclofilin shareholders along with the issuance of 1,439 shares of our common stock with a fair value of $0.1 million, representing 2.5% of our issued and outstanding common stock as of June, 2016, to the former Ciclofilin shareholders. Our CEO is a former Ciclofilin shareholder and received approximately $0.3 million and 603 shares of common stock and Petrus Wijngaard, a director of our company, received $2,805 and 6 shares of common stock.
The Merger Agreement was amended on January 14, 2022 for the following: (i) upon receipt of Phase II positive data from the first Phase II clinical trial of Rencofilstat in NASH patients which has been achieved: (1) such number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of our common stock equal to 7.5% of the issued and outstanding of our common stock on the Closing Date as defined in the original agreement, which 4,317 was issued in March 2022, and (2) a payment of $2.0 million, made in January 2022 to Ciclofilin shareholders, including a payment to our CEO of $0.8 million and other Hepion employees of $0.2 million, (ii) a payment of $1.0 million upon the positive read out of the first planned interim futility analysis of a Phase IIb clinical trial of Rencofilstat in NASH patients, supporting the continuation of the Phase IIb trial. The original agreement required a $3.0 million payment upon receipt of Phase II positive data from a proof-of-concept clinical trial of CRV431, (iii) a payment of $5.0 million upon initiation of the first Phase III trial of Rencofilstat in patients, where initiation occurs with first patient in the study dosed with study medication, which remains unchanged from the original agreement, (iv) a payment of $5.0 million upon the filing and acceptance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of the first new drug application for Rencofilstat, which was $8.0 million in the original agreement; and (v) a payment of $8.0 million upon the regulatory approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of the first new drug application for Rencofilstat.
On June 17, 2019, we submitted an IND to the FDA to support initiation of our Rencofilstat NASH clinical development program in the United States and received approval in July 2019. We completed dosing of Rencofilstat in our multiple ascending dose (“MAD") clinical trial in September 2020.
On July 13, 2021, we announced positive topline results from our Phase 2a "AMBITION" NASH clinical trial. All primary endpoints of the trial were met. This Phase 2a study confirmed Rencofilstat tolerability and successfully elucidated the drug dosing range for the upcoming Phase 2b trial.
On September 13, 2021, we announced additional positive data from the Phase 2a AMBITION trial and the initiation of the Phase 2b "ASCEND" NASH clinical trial.
On November 20, 2020, we submitted an IND to the FDA to support initiation of a Rencofilstat clinical development program in the United States for COVID-19. We received approval December 17, 2020, to conduct a COVID-19 clinical trial and are investigating potential sources of collaboration and/or funding for the trial. Effective June 15, 2022, the IND for the COVID-19 indication is in inactive status with the FDA.
On November 19, 2021, we submitted an IND to the FDA to support initiation of a Rencofilstat clinical development program in the United States for the treatment of HCC and received approval on December 17, 2021.

On November 30, 2021, the FDA granted Fast Track designation for our lead drug candidate, Rencofilstat, for the treatment of NASH. The FDA Fast Track designation allows sponsors to gain access to expedited drug approval reviews for medical conditions that are serious and potentially life-threatening, and where there is an unmet medical need. The program is also designed to facilitate drug development by making provisions for more frequent meetings with the FDA to discuss drug development plans, and Fast Track designation can lead to Accelerated Approval and/or Priority Review eligibility if certain criteria are met.
On June 20, 2022, the FDA granted Orphan Drug Designation to Rencofilstat, a liver-targeting, orally administered, novel cyclophilin inhibitor, for the treatment of HCC. The FDA Orphan Drug Designation program provides orphan status to drugs or biologics intended for the prevention, diagnosis, or treatment of diseases that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the United States. Sponsors of medicines that are granted Orphan Drug Designation are entitled to certain incentives, including tax credits for qualified clinical trials, prescription drug user-fee exemptions, and potential seven-year marketing exclusivity upon FDA approval.
2. Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim reporting. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our interim financial information. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, was derived from the audited annual consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 8, 2022.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries, Contravir Research Inc. and Hepion Research Corp, which conduct their operations in Canada. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2022, we had $59.1 million in cash, an accumulated deficit of $168.9 million, and working capital of $58.2 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $30.2 million and we had a net loss of $35.4 million. We have not generated revenue to date and have incurred substantial losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. We have historically funded our operations through issuances of convertible debt, common stock and preferred stock. We expect to continue to incur losses for the next several years as we expand our research, development and clinical trials of Rencofilstat. We are unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if at all. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents balances are sufficient to fund our anticipated operating cash requirements for more than one year from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern.
We will be required to raise additional capital in future years to continue the development and commercialization of our current product candidate and to continue to fund operations at the current cash expenditure levels. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that impact our ability to conduct business. If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we may have to (i) significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of one or more product candidates; (ii) seek collaborators for product candidates at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable and on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available; or (iii) relinquish or otherwise dispose of rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize on unfavorable terms.
COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 outbreak in the United States has caused significant business disruption. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our future operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration
9
HEPION PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
and spread of the outbreak, and impact on our clinical trials, employees and vendors, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 may impact our future financial condition or results of operations is uncertain. While there has not been a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, a continued outbreak could have a material adverse impact on our financial results and business operations, including the timing and our ability to complete certain clinical trials and other efforts required to advance the development of our product candidate and raise additional capital.
Although we have data to suggest Rencofilstat may be beneficial in the treatment of COVID-19 and other viral infections (e.g., HBV), the main focus of our company is currently on liver disease. We may, at some point, re-visit the antiviral indications should the opportunity arise (e.g., external funding/collaboration).
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Changes in estimates and assumptions are reflected in reported results in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Since the date of such consolidated financial statements, there have been no changes to our significant accounting policies.
Cash
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, cash was $59.1 million and $91.3 million, respectively, consisting of checking accounts held at U.S. and Canadian commercial banks. At certain times, our cash balances with any one financial institution may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. We believe it mitigates our risk by depositing our cash balances with high credit, quality financial institutions. We have never experienced losses related to these balances.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), establishes a fair value hierarchy for instruments measured at fair value that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and our own assumptions (unobservable inputs). Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
ASC 820 identifies fair value as the exchange price, or exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that distinguishes among the following:
•Level 1—Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we can access.
•Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and models for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
•Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by us in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable, and contingent consideration. These financial instruments are stated at their respective historical carrying amounts, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature, except for contingent consideration, which is recorded at fair value at the end of each reporting period. We recorded contingent

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
consideration from the 2016 acquisition of Ciclofilin, which is required to be carried at fair value. See Note 5 for additional information on the fair value of the contingent consideration.
Property, equipment and depreciation
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of property and equipment, consisting primarily of lab equipment, computer equipment, and furniture and fixtures. Expenditures for additions, renewals and improvements will be capitalized at cost. Depreciation will generally be computed on a straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets are 3 to 7 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, or the remaining term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. We will periodically evaluate whether current events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of our depreciable assets may not be recoverable. There were no adjustments to the carrying value of property and equipment at September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.
Goodwill and In-Process Research & Development
In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (“ASC Topic 350”), goodwill and acquired IPR&D are determined to have indefinite lives and, therefore, are not amortized. Instead, they are tested for impairment annually, in our fourth quarter, and between annual tests if we become aware of an event or a change in circumstances that would indicate the carrying value may be impaired.
The annual, or interim (if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired), goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. As part of the impairment test, we may elect to perform an assessment of qualitative factors. If this qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, is less than its carrying amount, or if we elect to bypass the qualitative assessment, we would then proceed with the quantitative impairment test. The impairment test involves comparing the fair values of the reporting units to their carrying amounts. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we recognize a goodwill loss in an amount equal to any excess.
Goodwill relates to amounts that arose in connection with the acquisition of Ciclofilin. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired when accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations.
Interim Assessment of Goodwill
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, increases in interest rates, higher than expected inflation in the U.S., a reduction of value of associated companies developing drug therapy for NASH along with other macroeconomic factors impacted key assumptions used to value goodwill on our balance sheet. These facts and circumstances indicate that the fair value of our goodwill was less than its carrying amount at the reporting date, and therefore a quantitative fair value test was performed for the reporting unit.
We performed a trigger-based goodwill impairment test at June 30, 2022. We are a single reporting unit with an actively traded stock. As part of our impairment testing procedures for goodwill, we relied upon the observed equity premiums paid for a set of guideline merger and acquisition transactions. The application of a control premium to our closing stock price at June 30, 2022 led to an indication of fair value for our equity on a controlling, marketable basis that was less than its carrying value as of June 30, 2022. As a result, we recognized an impairment charge of $1.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 as general and administrative costs in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.
In-Process Research and Development ("IPR&D") acquired in a business combination is capitalized as indefinite-lived assets on our consolidated balance sheets at the acquisition-date fair value. IPR&D relates to amounts that arose in connection with the acquisition of Ciclofilin. Once the project is completed, the carrying value of the IPR&D is reclassified to other intangible assets, net and is amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset. Post-acquisition research and development expenses related to the IPR&D projects are expensed as incurred. The projected discounted cash flow models used to estimate the fair values of our IPR&D assets, acquired in connection with the Ciclofilin acquisition, reflect significant assumptions regarding the estimates a market participant would make in order to evaluate a drug development asset, including: (i)
11

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
probability of successfully completing clinical trials and obtaining regulatory approval; (ii) market size, market growth projections, and market share; (iii) estimates regarding the timing of and the expected costs to advance clinical programs to commercialization; (iv) estimates of future cash flows from potential product sales; and (v) a discount rate. These assumptions are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. The use of different inputs and assumptions could increase or decrease our estimated discounted future cash flows, the resulting estimated fair values and the amounts of related impairments, if any.
The annual, or interim (if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired), IPR&D impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of the asset to the asset’s carrying amount. When testing indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment, we may assess qualitative factors for its indefinite-lived intangibles to determine whether it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. Alternatively, we may bypass this qualitative assessment for our indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test that compares the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset with the asset’s carrying amount. If IPR&D becomes impaired or is abandoned, the carrying value of the IPR&D is written down to the revised fair value with the related impairment charge recognized in the period in which the impairment occurs. If the carrying value of the asset becomes impaired as the result of unfavorable data from any ongoing or future clinical trial, changes in assumptions that negatively impact projected cash flows, or because of any other information regarding the prospects of successfully developing or commercializing our programs, we could incur significant charges in the period in which the impairment occurs.
We performed a quantitative assessment of IPR&D at September 30, 2022 and for fiscal year 2021 and determined that the asset was not impaired.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which we expect to recover or settle those temporary differences. We recognize the effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. We reduce the measurement of a deferred tax asset, if necessary, by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that we will not realize some or all of the deferred tax asset. We account for uncertain tax positions by recognizing the financial statement effects of a tax position only when, based upon technical merits, it is “more-likely-than-not” that the position will be sustained upon examination. Potential interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax positions are recognized in income tax expense.
We continue to maintain a full valuation allowance for our U.S and foreign net deferred tax assets. Income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 is related to our foreign operations.
Under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the NOL and tax credit carryforwards are subject to review and possible adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service and state tax authorities. NOL and tax credit carryforwards may become subject to an annual limitation in the event of certain cumulative changes in the ownership interest of significant shareholders over a three-year period in excess of 50%, as defined under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, respectively, as well as similar state tax provisions. This could limit the amount of tax attributes that we can utilize annually to offset future taxable income or tax liabilities. The amount of the annual limitation, if any, will be determined based on our value immediately prior to the ownership change. Subsequent ownership changes may further affect the limitation in future years. The utilization of these NOLs is subject to limitations based on past and future changes in our ownership pursuant to Section 382. We completed a Section 382 study of transactions in our stock through December 31, 2021 and concluded that we have experienced ownership changes since inception that we believe under Section 382 and 383 of the Code will result in limitations on our ability to use certain pre-ownership change NOLs and credits. In addition, we may experience subsequent ownership changes as a result of future equity offerings or other changes in the ownership of our stock, some of which are beyond our control. As a result, the amount of the NOLs and tax credit carryforwards presented in our consolidated financial statements could be limited. Similar provisions of state tax law may also apply to limit the use of accumulated state tax attributes.
Contingencies
In the normal course of business, we are subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of our business that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, government investigations, shareholder lawsuits, product and environmental liability, and tax matters. In accordance with ASC Topic 450, Accounting for Contingencies, (“ASC 450”), we record accruals for such loss contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of loss
12
HEPION PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
can be reasonably estimated. In accordance with this guidance, we do not recognize gain contingencies until realized.
Research and Development
Research and development costs, which include expenditures in connection with an in-house research and development laboratory, salaries and staff costs, application and filing for regulatory approval of proposed products, purchased in-process research and development, license costs, regulatory and scientific consulting fees, as well as contract research, insurance and FDA consultants, are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 730, Research and Development, (“ASC 730”). Also, as prescribed by this guidance, patent filing and maintenance expenses are considered legal in nature and therefore classified as general and administrative expense, if any.
We do not currently have any commercial biopharmaceutical products and do not expect to have such for several years, if at all. Accordingly, our research and development costs are expensed as incurred. While certain of our research and development costs may have future benefits, our policy of expensing all research and development expenditures is predicated on the fact that we have no history of successful commercialization of product candidates to base any estimate of the number of future periods that would be benefited.
Also as prescribed by ASC 730, non-refundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities should be deferred and capitalized. As the related goods are delivered or the services are performed, or when the goods or services are no longer expected to be provided, the deferred amounts would be recognized as an expense. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had prepaid research and development costs of $6.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively.
Share-based payments
ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), requires companies to measure the cost of employee and non-employee services received in exchange for the award of equity instruments based on the estimated fair value of the award at the date of grant. The expense is to be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. Generally, we issue stock options with only service-based vesting conditions and record the expense for awards using the straight-line method (see Note 9). We account for awards granted to employees that are in excess of what is available to grant as a liability recorded at fair value each reporting period in the consolidated financial statements.
The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The estimated expected stock volatility is based on the historical volatility of our own traded stock price. The expected term of stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain-vanilla” options. The expected term of stock options granted to non-employees is equal to the contractual term of the option award. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that we have never paid cash dividends and do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Foreign Exchange
For 2022, the functional currency of Hepion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and ContraVir Research Inc. is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of Hepion Research Corp. is the Canadian dollar. The change in the functional currency for Hepion Research Corp. was applied on a prospective basis starting January 1, 2022. Prior to 2022, the functional and reporting currency of Hepion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Hepion Research Corp. and ContraVir Research Inc. was the U.S. dollar. For 2022, the assets and liabilities of Hepion Research Corp. are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates; income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates for the reporting period. Unrealized foreign currency translation adjustments are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The amount of currency translation adjustment was $90,335 at September 30, 2022. Transactions in foreign currencies are remeasured into the functional currency of the relevant subsidiaries at the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Any monetary assets and liabilities arising from these transactions are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date or on settlement. Resulting gains and losses are recorded in general and administrative expense within the consolidated statements of operations. The impact of foreign exchange gains (losses) was $27,601 and $26,134 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and was $(4,917) and $115,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Segment Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief operating decision maker views our operations and manages the business in one segment.
Net loss per share
Basic and diluted net loss per share is presented in conformity with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share, (“ASC 260”) for all periods presented. In accordance with this guidance, basic and diluted net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04 ("ASU 2021-04), Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
4. Stockholders’ Equity and Derivative Liability — Warrants
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
On October 14, 2014, our Board of Directors authorized the sale and issuance of up to 1,250,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A”). All shares of the Series A were issued between October 2014 and February 2015. Each share of the Series A is convertible at the option of the holder into the number of shares of common stock determined by dividing the stated value of such share by the conversion price that is subject to adjustment. As of September 30, 2022, there were 85,581 shares outstanding. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, no shares of the Series A were converted. If we sell common stock or equivalents at an effective price per share that is lower than the conversion price, the conversion price may be reduced to the lower conversion price. The Series A will be automatically convertible into common stock in the event of a fundamental transaction as defined in the offering.
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock Issuance
On July 3, 2018, we completed a rights offering pursuant to our effective registration statement on Form S-1. We offered for sale units in the rights offering and each unit sold in connection with the rights offering consisted of 1 share of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, or Series C, and common stock warrants (the “Rights Offering”). Upon completion of the offering, pursuant to the rights offering, we sold an aggregate of 10,826 units at an offering price of $1,000 per unit comprised of 10,826 shares of Series C and 88,928 common stock warrants. As of September 30, 2022, there were 1,801 shares outstanding. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, 5 shares of the Series C were converted into 46 shares of our common stock and during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 11 shares of the Series C were converted into 101 shares of our common stock. Each share of Series C is convertible into common stock at any time at the option of the holder thereof at the conversion price then in effect. The conversion price for the Series C is determined by dividing the stated value of $1,000 per share by $1.55 per share (subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of certain dilutive events).
Common Stock and Warrant Offerings
In April 2017, and July 2018, we issued common stock and warrants in connection with public offerings. In April 2022, the remaining April 2017 warrants expired. Based on the terms of the July 2018 offering and warrant agreements, if we do not maintain an effective registration statement, which is outside of our control, we are obligated to deliver registered shares upon the exercise and settlement of the warrant. As a result of the aforementioned terms and in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC Topic 815-40, we determined that the April 2017 and July 2018 warrants issued in connection with these offerings were recorded as derivative liabilities upon issuance and marked to market on a quarterly basis in our consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. In connection with the adoption of ASU 2020-06, we reclassified the July 2018 warrants to equity.

Contingent consideration was recorded for the acquisition of Ciclofilin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Ciclofilin) on June 10, 2016. The contingent consideration represented the acquisition date fair value of potential future payments, to be paid in cash and our stock, upon the achievement of certain milestones and was estimated based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model utilizing a discount rate of 6.5% and a stock price of $19.60.
At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the assumptions we used to calculate the fair value were as follows:

We completed the first segment of our Phase I clinical activities for Rencofilstat in October 2018 wherein we reached a major clinical milestone of positive data from a Phase I trial of Rencofilstat in humans. This achievement triggered the first milestone payment, as stated in the Merger Agreement for the acquisition of Ciclofilin and in the fourth quarter of 2018, we paid a related milestone payment of $1,000,000 and issued 1,439 shares of our common stock with a fair value of $55,398, representing 2.5% of our issued and outstanding common stock as of June 2016, to the Ciclofilin shareholders.
The Merger Agreement was amended on January 14, 2022 for the following: (i) upon receipt of Phase II positive data from the first Phase II clinical trial of Rencofilstat in NASH patients which has been achieved: (1) such number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of our common stock equal to 7.5% of the issued and outstanding of our common stock on the Closing Date as defined in the original agreement, which 4,317 was issued in March 2022, and (2) a payment of $2.0 million, made in January 2022 to Ciclofilin shareholders, including a payment to our CEO of $0.8 million and other Hepion employees of $0.2 million, (ii) a payment of $1.0 million upon the positive read out of the first planned interim futility analysis of a Phase IIb clinical trial of Rencofilstat in NASH patients, supporting the continuation of the Phase IIb trial. The original agreement required a $3.0 million payment upon receipt of Phase II positive data from a proof-of-concept clinical trial of CRV431, (iii) a payment of $5.0 million upon initiation of the first Phase III trial of Rencofilstat in patients, where initiation occurs with first patient in the study dosed with study medication, which remains unchanged from the original agreement, (iv) a payment of $5.0 million upon the filing and acceptance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of the first new drug application for Rencofilstat, which was $8.0 million in the original agreement; and (v) a payment of $8.0 million upon the regulatory approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration of the first new drug application for Rencofilstat.

9. Accounting for Share-Based Payments
On June 3, 2013, we adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Stock options granted under the Plan typically will vest after three years of continuous service from the grant date and will have a contractual term of ten years. We granted options during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and at the time that these grants were made, we did not have any options available for grant under the Plan. We accounted for these option grants as liability-classified awards requiring us to measure the fair value of the awards each reporting period since there were not enough shares available at the time of the grant. As of September 30, 2022, the liability related to the awards was $2.2 million and is included in accrued expenses in our condensed consolidated balance sheets with the corresponding expense included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. At our annual meeting of stockholders June, 2022, shareholders voted against our 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Therefore, we will continue to account for this option grant as liability-classified until we receive stockholder approval to increase the available options to grant.
We classify stock-based compensation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations in the same way the award recipient's payroll costs are classified or in which the award recipients' service payments are classified. We recorded stock-based compensation expense as follows:

As of September 30, 2022, the unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options outstanding, net of expected forfeitures, was $2.6 million to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of approximately 1.1 years.
10. Loss per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 in 2021, basic and diluted net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period with net loss attributable to common stockholders’ being adjusted for the preferred stock deemed dividends related accretion of the beneficial conversion feature and other discount on this instrument for the periods in which the preferred stock is outstanding.

11. Commitments and Contingencies
Contractual Obligations
In August 2014, we entered into a lease for corporate office space in Edison, New Jersey. In December 2017, we entered an amendment to the lease for corporate office space in Edison, New Jersey expanding the office footprint and extending the lease for an approximate 5-year period. This lease will expire in March 2023. In October 2019, we entered into a 3-year lease for office and research laboratory space in Edmonton, Canada, which expired on September 30, 2022 and will be subsequently on a month-to-month basis.
Legal Proceedings
We are involved in legal proceedings of various types from time to time. Significant judgment is required to determine both the likelihood and the estimated amount of a loss related to such matters. Additionally, while any litigation contains an element of uncertainty, we have at this time no reason to believe that the outcome of such proceedings or claims will have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
Leases
We account for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”). We determine if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. A lease exists when a contract conveys to the customer the right to control the use of identified property or equipment for a period in exchange for consideration. The definition of a lease embodies two conditions: (1) there is an identified asset in the contract that is land or a depreciable asset (i.e., property and equipment), and (2) the customer has the right to control the use of the identified asset.
Operating leases where we are the lessee are included under the caption “Right of Use Assets” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The lease liabilities are initially and subsequently measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date. Key estimates and judgments include how we determine (1) the discount rate used to discount the unpaid lease payments to present value, (2) lease term and (3) lease payments.
The Right-Of-Use (“ROU”) asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. For operating leases, the ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the carrying amount of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
As of September 30, 2022, the ROU assets were $0.1 million, the current lease liabilities were $0.1 million, and there were no non-current lease liabilities. The discount rate used to account for our operating leases under ASC 842 is our estimated incremental borrowing rate of 6.5%.
Rent expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and was $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The weighted average remaining term of our noncancelable operating leases is 0.50 years.
Future minimum rental payments under our noncancelable operating leases at September 30, 2022 is as follows:

12. Subsequent Events
On November 4, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell, in a private placement (the “Offering”), 1,900,000 shares of our Series F Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series F Preferred

(Unaudited)
Stock”), and 100,000 shares of our Series G Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series G Preferred Stock,” and together with the Series F Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”), at an offering price of $9.50 per share, representing a 5% original issue discount to the stated value of $10.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $20 million in the aggregate for the Offering, before the deduction of discounts, fees and offering expenses. The shares of Preferred Stock will be convertible, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share (subject in certain circumstances to adjustments), into shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at the option of the holders and, in certain circumstances, by us. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by us and customary conditions to closing. The Offering closed on November 8, 2022.
We intend to call a special meeting of shareholders to consider an amendment (the “Amendment”) to our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to authorize a reverse split of the Common Stock (the “Reverse Split”). The Investors have agreed in the Purchase Agreement to not transfer, offer, sell, contract to sell, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of the shares of the Preferred Stock until the Reverse Split. Pursuant to the certificate of designation of the Series F Preferred Stock, the shares of Series F Preferred Stock have the right to vote on such Amendment on an as-converted to Common Stock basis. In addition, pursuant to the certificate of designation of the Series G Preferred Stock, the shares of Series G Preferred Stock have the right to vote on such Amendment. Each Investor has separately agreed pursuant to a side letter (the “Side Letter”) entered into in conjunction with the Purchase Agreement to vote the shares of the Series F Preferred Stock in favor of the Amendment and that the shares of the Series G Preferred Stock shall automatically be voted in a manner that “mirrors” the proportions on which the shares of Common Stock (excluding any shares of Common Stock that are not voted) and Series F Preferred Stock are voted on the Amendment. The Amendment requires the approval of the majority of the votes associated with our outstanding stock entitled to vote on the proposal. Because the Series G Preferred Stock will automatically and without further action of the purchaser be voted in a manner that “mirrors” the proportions on which the shares of Common Stock (excluding any shares of Common Stock that are not voted) and Series F Preferred Stock are voted on the Reverse Split, abstentions by common stockholders will not have any effect on the votes cast by the holders of the Series G Preferred Stock.
The proceeds of the Offering will be held in an escrow account, along with the additional amount that would be necessary to fund the 105% redemption price until the expiration of the redemption period for the Preferred Stock, as applicable, subject to the earlier payment to redeeming holders. Upon expiration of the redemption period, any proceeds remaining in the escrow account will be disbursed to us.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this quarterly report contain forward-looking statements. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “plan,” “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” believe,” “estimate” and “continue” or similar words. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future business success or financial results. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Accordingly, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.
The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 8, 2022. Accordingly, to the extent that this Report contains forward-looking statements regarding the financial condition, operating results, business prospects or any other aspect of us, please be advised that our actual financial condition, operating results and business performance may differ materially from that projected or estimated by us in forward-looking statements, and you should not unduly rely on such statements.
Business Overview
We are a biopharmaceutical company headquartered in Edison, New Jersey, focused primarily on the development of drug therapy for treatment of chronic liver diseases. This therapeutic approach targets fibrosis, inflammation, and shows potential for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (“HCC”) associated with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”), viral hepatitis, and other liver diseases. Our cyclophilin inhibitor, Rencofilstat (formerly CRV431), is being developed to offer benefits to address multiple complex pathologies relate to advanced liver disease. Rencofilstat is a pan cyclophilin inhibitor that targets multiple pathologic pathways involved in the progression of liver disease. Preclinical studies with Rencofilstat in NASH models demonstrated consistent reductions in liver fibrosis and additional reductions in inflammation and cancerous tumors in some studies. Rencofilstat additionally showed in vitro antiviral activity towards hepatitis B, C, and D viruses which also trigger liver disease. Preclinical studies also have shown potentially therapeutic activities of Rencofilstat in experimental models of acute lung injury, platelet activation, and SARS-CoV-2 replication.
NASH is a form of liver disease that is triggered by what has come to be known as the “Western diet”, characterized especially by high-fat, high-sugar, and processed foods. Among the effects of a prolonged Western diet is fat accumulation in liver cells (steatosis), which is described as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease ("NAFLD") and can predispose cells to injury. NAFLD may evolve into NASH when the fatty liver begins to progress through stages of cell injury, inflammation, fibrosis, and carcinogenesis. People who develop NASH often have additional predisposing conditions such as diabetes and hypertension, but the exact biochemical events that trigger and maintain the progression are not fully understood. Many people in the early stages of disease do not have significant clinical symptoms and therefore do not know that they have NASH. NASH becomes evident and a major concern when the liver becomes fibrotic and puts the individual at increased risk of developing cirrhosis and other complications. Individuals with advanced liver fibrosis have significantly higher risk of developing liver cancer, although cancer may also arise in some patients before significant hepatitis or fibrosis. NASH is increasing worldwide at an alarming rate due to the spread of the Western diet, obesity, and other related conditions. Approximately 4-5% of the global population is estimated to have NASH, including the USA. NASH is the leading reason for individuals requiring a liver transplant in the USA. Considering the serious outcomes linked to advancing NASH, the economic and social burdens of the disease are enormous. There are no simple blood tests to diagnose or track the progression of NASH, and no drugs are approved to specifically treat the disease.
HCC is a major type of liver cancer, accounting for approximately 85% - 90% of all cases. NASH, hepatitis viral infections, and alcohol consumption are all major causes of HCC. Globally, over 700,000 people die each year from liver cancer which is second only to lung cancer among all cancer-related deaths. The high mortality is due to the fact that only around half of all people who develop HCC (in developed countries) receive the diagnosis early enough to have an opportunity for therapeutic intervention. Additionally, recurrence rates are high, and current treatment options remain limited.
HCC is a type of cancer in which the tissue microenvironment plays a major role in its development. In most cases HCC is preceded by significant, long-term damage to liver cells, inflammation, and fibrosis. One-third of people with cirrhosis, a very advanced stage of liver disease, will eventually progress to HCC. The chronic injury to the liver leads to many genetic mutations that eventually lead to transformation of cells and formation of tumors. The noxious tissue microenvironment also promotes cancer by altering the function of immune cells and endothelial cells which form tumor-supporting blood vessels.
21
These various events underscore the importance of halting liver injury and scarring as early and effectively as possible to prevent cancer development.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
We have created a proprietary AI tool called, “AI-POWR™ to optimize the outcomes of our current clinical programs and to potentially identify novel indications for Rencofilstat and possibly identify new targets and new drug molecules to broaden our pipeline.
AI-POWR™ is our acronym for Artificial Intelligence - Precision Medicine; Omics that include genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics, and lipidomics; World database access; and Response and clinical outcomes. AI-POWR™ allows for the selection of novel drug targets, biomarkers, and appropriate patient populations. AI-POWR™ is used to identify responders from big data sources using our multi-omics approach, while modelling inputs and scenarios to increase response rates. The components of AI-POWR™ include access to publicly available databases, and in-house genomic and multi-omic big data, processed via machine learning algorithms. We believe AI outputs will allow for improved response outcomes through enhanced patient selection, biomarker selection and drug target selection. We believe AI outputs will help identify responders a priori and reduce the need for large sample sizes through study design enrichment.
We intend to use AI-POWR™ to help identify which NASH patients will best respond to Rencofilstat. It is anticipated that applying this proprietary platform to our drug development program will ultimately save time, resources, and money. In so doing, we believe that AI-POWR™ is a risk-mitigation strategy that should reap benefits all the way through from clinical trials to commercialization. The AI-POWR™ platform is continually updated with in-house and published data to further refine the accuracy of the neural network.
We believe that NASH is a heterogenous disease, and we need to have a better understanding of interactions among proteins, genes, lipids, metabolites, and other disease variables to help predict disease progression, regression, and responses to Rencofilstat. All of this is further complicated by variable drug concentrations, patient traits and temporal factors. AI-POWR™ is designed to address many of the typical challenges in drug development, as we believe we can use our proprietary platform to shorten development timelines and increase the delta between placebo and treatment groups. AI-POWR™ will be used to drive our Phase 2b Ascend-NASH program and identify additional potential indications for Rencofilstat to expand our footprint in the cyclophilin inhibition therapeutic space.
Impact of COVID-19
The COVID-19 outbreak in the United States has caused significant business disruption. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our future operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and impact on our clinical trials, employees and vendors, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 may impact our future financial condition or results of operations is uncertain. While there has not been a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, a continued outbreak could have a material adverse impact on our financial results and business operations, including the timing and our ability to complete certain clinical trials and other efforts required to advance the development of our product candidate and raise additional capital.
Although we have data to suggest Rencofilstat may be beneficial in the treatment of COVID-19 and other viral infections (e.g., HBV), the main focus of our company is currently on liver disease. We may, at some point, re-visit the antiviral indications should the opportunity arise (e.g., external funding/collaboration).
FINANCIAL OPERATIONS OVERVIEW
From our inception in May 2013 through September 30, 2022, we have an accumulated deficit of $168.9 million and we have not generated any revenue from operations. We expect to incur additional losses to perform further research and development activities and do not currently have any commercial biopharmaceutical products. We do not expect to have such for several years, if at all.
Our product development efforts are in their early stages and we cannot make estimates of the costs or the time they will take to complete. The risk of completion of any program is high because of the many uncertainties involved in bringing new drugs to market including the long duration of clinical testing, the specific performance of proposed products under stringent clinical trial protocols, the extended regulatory approval and review cycles, our ability to raise additional capital, the nature and timing of research and development expenses and competing technologies being developed by organizations with significantly greater resources.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to
22
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and expenses, income taxes and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as described in the financial statements contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

We had no revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, because we do not have any commercial biopharmaceutical products and we do not expect to have such products for several years, if at all.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $5.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively. The decrease of $0.1 million was primarily due to a decrease of $0.5 million in chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (or CMC) costs primarily relating to a decrease in animal study costs, a decrease of $0.2 million for consulting fees and outside services, and a $0.2 million decrease in stock compensation expense. This was offset by an increase of $0.6 million in clinical trial costs relating to our current studies, and a $0.2 million increase in employee compensation costs due to an increase in headcount.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $2.7 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The slight increase was primarily due to an increase of $0.2 million for employee compensation due to an increase in headcount, a $0.1 million increase in travel costs, and a $0.5 million increase in professional, consulting, and outside services. This was offset by a $0.7 million decrease in stock comp expense and a $0.1 million decrease in miscellaneous taxes.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $10.0 million and $7.9 million, respectively. The increase of $2.0 million was primarily related to an increase of $1.9 million for goodwill impairment (see Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), a $0.4 million increase in compensation costs related to an increase in headcount, a $0.1 million increase in insurance costs, a $0.2 million increase in travels costs, and a $0.8 million increase in professional and consulting fees. This was offset by a decrease of $1.2 million in stock compensation costs and a $0.2 million decrease in miscellaneous taxes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
We have funded our operations through September 30, 2022 primarily through the issuance of convertible preferred stock, the issuance of convertible debt, and issuances of shares of our common stock through at-the market offerings.
On November 4, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell, in a private placement (the “Offering”), 1,900,000 shares of our Series F Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), and 100,000 shares of our Series G Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series G Preferred Stock,” and together with the Series F Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”), at an offering price of $9.50 per share, representing a 5% original issue discount to the stated value of $10.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $20 million in the aggregate for the Offering, before the deduction of discounts, fees and offering expenses. The shares of Preferred Stock will be convertible, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share (subject in certain circumstances to adjustments), into shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at the option of the holders and, in certain circumstances, by us. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by us and customary conditions to closing. The Offering closed on November 8, 2022.
Future Funding Requirements
We have no products approved for commercial sale. To date, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to organizing and staffing our company, business planning, raising capital, undertaking preclinical studies and clinical trials of our product candidate. As a result, we are not profitable and have incurred losses in each period since our inception in 2013. As of
24
September 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $168.9 million. We expect to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:
•pursue the clinical and preclinical development of our current product candidate;
•leverage our technologies to advance product candidates into preclinical and clinical development;
•seek regulatory approvals for our product candidate that successfully complete clinical trials, if any;
•attract, hire and retain additional clinical, quality control and scientific personnel;
•establish our manufacturing capabilities through third parties and scale-up manufacturing to provide adequate supply for clinical trials and commercialization;
•expand our operational, financial and management systems and increase personnel, including personnel to support our clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and our operations as a public company;
•expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio;
•establish a sales, marketing, medical affairs and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any products for which we may obtain marketing approval and intend to commercialize on our own or jointly;
•acquire or in-license other product candidates and technologies; and
•incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating our business, including ongoing costs associated with operating as a public company.
Even if we succeed in commercializing our product candidate, we will continue to incur substantial research and development and other expenditures to potentially develop and market additional product candidates. We may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other unknown factors that may adversely affect our business. The size of our future net losses will depend, in part, on the rate of future growth of our expenses and our ability to generate revenue. Our prior losses and expected future losses have had and will continue to have an adverse effect on our stockholders’ equity and working capital.
We will require substantial additional financing and a failure to obtain this necessary capital could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development programs, commercialization efforts or other operations.
Since our inception, we have invested a significant portion of our efforts and financial resources in research and development activities for our non-replicating and replicating technologies and our product candidates derived from these technologies. Preclinical studies and clinical trials and additional research and development activities will require substantial funds to complete. We believe that we will continue to expend substantial resources for the foreseeable future in connection with the development of our current product candidates and programs as well as any future product candidates we may choose to pursue, as well as the gradual gaining of control over our required manufacturing capabilities and other corporate uses. These expenditures will include costs associated with conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approvals, and manufacturing and supply, as well as marketing and selling any products approved for sale. In addition, other unanticipated costs may arise. Because the outcome of any preclinical study or clinical trial is highly uncertain, we cannot reasonably estimate the actual amounts necessary to successfully complete the development and commercialization of our current or future product candidates.
Our future capital requirements depend on many factors, including:
•the scope, progress, results and costs of researching and developing our current and future product candidate and programs, and of conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials;
•the number and development requirements of other product candidates that we may pursue, and other indications for our current product candidate that we may pursue;
•the stability, scale and yields during the manufacturing process as we scale-up production and formulation of our product candidate for later stages of development and commercialization;
•the timing of, and the costs involved in, obtaining regulatory and marketing approvals and developing our ability to establish sales and marketing capabilities, if any, for our current and future product candidates we develop if clinical trials are successful;
•our ability to establish and maintain collaborations, strategic licensing or other arrangements and the financial terms of such agreements;
•the cost of commercialization activities for our current and future product candidates that we may develop, whether alone or with a collaborator;
25
•the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, expanding, defending and enforcing patent claims, including litigation costs and the outcome of such litigation;
•the timing, receipt and amount of sales of, or royalties on, our future products, if any; and
A change in the outcome of any of these or other variables with respect to the development of any of our current and future product candidates could significantly change the costs and timing associated with the development of that product candidate. Furthermore, our operating plans may change in the future, and we will need additional funds to meet operational needs and capital requirements associated with such operating plans.
We believe we have enough cash on hand to fund our operations for the next twelve months after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. We will be required to raise additional capital to continue the development and commercialization of our current product candidate and to continue to fund operations at the current cash expenditure levels. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that impact our ability to conduct, delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of one or more product candidates; (ii) seek collaborators for product candidates at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable and on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available; or (iii) relinquish or otherwise dispose of rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize on unfavorable terms.

Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer (CEO) and principal financial officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2022 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as specified above. Management does not expect, however, that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2022 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
