MYMETICS CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2022

(UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1. The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN

 

The amounts in the notes are shown in thousands of EURO, unless otherwise noted, and rounded to the nearest thousand except for share and per share amounts.

 

The accompanying interim period condensed consolidated financial statements of Mymetics Corporation (the “Company”) set forth herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. The interim period condensed consolidated financial statements should be read together with the audited financial statements and the accompanying notes included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

 

The accompanying financial statements of the Company are unaudited. However, in the opinion of the Company, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein contain all adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. All adjustments made during the three and six-month period ending June 30, 2022 were of a normal and recurring nature.

 

The Company was created for the purpose of engaging in vaccine research and development. Its main research efforts in the beginning have been concentrated in the prevention and treatment of the AIDS virus and malaria. The Company has established a network which enables it to work with education centers, research centers, pharmaceutical laboratories and biotechnology companies. Besides the HIV and malaria vaccine candidates, the Company additionally has generated preclinical data for the following vaccines: Herpes Simplex and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (“RSV”), neither of which is currently being developed. The company also has clinical data for an intranasal influenza vaccine for the elderly which has finished a Phase I clinical trial and is currently on hold. As of June 30, 2022, the Company is working on several research projects for immunotherapy in the field oncology and for some infectious diseases with academic partners. Since April 2020, the Company has additionally started to work on the development of a intranasal virosome-based vaccine to prevent Covid-19, the disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. For the Covid-19 vaccine candidates, the Company is collaborating with leading academic institutions, such as Baylor College of Medicine in Texas, the Amsterdam Medical Center (AMC) of the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands and the University Hospital in Bern, Switzerland.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company was engaged in the pre-clinical testing of some of its vaccine candidates, but a commercially viable product is not expected for several more years. However, the Company generated some revenue through collaboration and grant agreements.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has experienced negative cash flows from operations and significant losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of €100,303 at June 30, 2022. Further, the Company’s current liabilities exceed its current assets by €69,282 as of June 30, 2022, and there is no assurance that cash will become available to pay current liabilities in the near term. Management is seeking additional financing but there can be no assurance that management will be successful in any of those efforts. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

LEASES

 

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842, which established a right-of-use (“ROU”) model requiring lessees to record a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease obligations on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Where an arrangement is a lease, the Company determines if it is an operating lease or a finance lease. At lease commencement, the Company records a lease liability and corresponding right-of- use (“ROU”) asset. Lease liabilities represent the present value of our future lease payments over the expected lease term which includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain those options will be exercised. The present value of the Company’s lease liability is determined using its incremental collateralized borrowing rate at lease inception. ROU assets represent its right to control the use of the leased asset during the lease and are recognized in an amount equal to the lease liability for leases with an initial term greater than 12 months. Over the lease term (operating leases only), the Company uses the effective interest rate method to account for the lease liability as lease payments are made and the ROU asset is amortized to consolidated statement of operations in a manner that results in straight-line expense recognition. The Company does not apply lease recognition requirements for short-term leases. Instead, the Company recognizes payments related to these arrangements in the consolidated statement of operations as lease costs on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

IMPACT OF THE NOVEL CORONAVIRUS

 

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to evolve. Although at this date the restrictive measures and impacts are reduced due to the role out of vaccination programs, the extent to which the outbreak impacts our business, preclinical studies and clinical trials will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the pandemic, travel restrictions and social distancing, business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken in the U.S., Europe, and other countries to contain and treat the disease. As such, it is uncertain as to the full magnitude that the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations.

 

Management has taken measures in-line with the country requirements where we are operating, and we are actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, scientific collaborations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for fiscal year 2022.

 

The Company is dependent on its workforce to deliver and advance its research. Developments such as physical distancing and working from home directives have and will continue to impact the Company’s ability to deploy its workforce effectively. While restrictions are being lifted across the world, prolonged workforce disruptions may negatively impact future revenues for the remainder of fiscal year 2022 and the Company’s overall liquidity.

 

The Company is dependent on its partners in certain projects, such as the University of Louisiana at Lafayette (“ULL”) for the NIH funded project to maintain the agreed timelines and execute their tasks. Developments such as social distancing and shelter-in-place directives and lock-down directives have and will continue to impact the Company’s ability to execute on project plans and research objectives effectively. While expected to be temporary, prolonged disruptions in collaboration projects may negatively impact funding for the fiscal year 2022 and the Company’s overall liquidity.

 

Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity for the fiscal year 2022.

 

CORONAVIRUS AID, RELIEF AND ECONOMIC SECURITY ACT

 

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. Government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law. The CARES Act includes various income and payroll tax provisions. The Company has analyzed the tax provisions of the CARES Act and determined they have no significant financial impact to the condensed financial statements. The Company has no intention of taking advantage of other benefits provided by the CARES Act but will continue to evaluate the impact on the Company’s financial position.

 

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—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 Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. Specifically, ASU 2020-06 simplifies accounting for the issuance of convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. In addition, the ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and simplifies the diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculation in certain areas. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, beginning in fiscal years which begin after December 15, 2020. The FASB has specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

The Company translates non-Euro assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange throughout the period. Unrealized gains or losses from these translations are reported as a separate component of comprehensive income. Transaction gains or losses are included in foreign exchange (gain) loss in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The translation adjustments do not recognize the effect of income tax because the Company expects to reinvest the amounts indefinitely in operations. The Company’s reporting currency is the Euro because substantially all of the Company’s activities are conducted in Europe.

 

CASH

 

The Company consider all highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash deposits are occasionally in excess of insured amounts.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective method and there was no impact to financial position and results of operations as a result of the adoption. This standard applies to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of other standards, such as leases, insurance, collaboration arrangements and financial instruments. Under Topic 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the entity performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Overall, adoption of the new standard did not result in an adjustment to amounts previously reported in our consolidated financial statements and there were no other significant changes impacting the timing or measurement of our revenue or our business processes and controls.

 

The Company has concluded that government grants are not within the scope of Topic 606, as they do not meet the definition of a contract with a “customer”. The Company concluded the definition of a contract with a “customer” was not met as the counterparty to the government grants has not contracted to obtain goods or services and thus the contracts are not considered to have commercial substance. Government grants provide the Company with payments for certain types of expenditures related to research and development activities over a contractually defined period. Revenue from government grants is recognized in the period during which the related costs are incurred, provided that the applicable conditions under the government contracts have been met.

 

NIH

 

On April 29, 2019, the National Institutes of Health (“NIH”) awarded the Company and Texas Biomedical Research Institute (“Texas Biomed”) a five-year grant for the project called “Cold Chain-independent, Needle-free Mucosal Virosomal Vaccine to Prevent HIV-1 Acquisition at Mucosal Levels” (“NIH Grant”). The project started on May 1, 2019 and is planned for five years. It was initially co-led by Texas Biomed, but due to the move of Dr. Ruth Ruprecht, the Co-Principal Investigator, to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette (“ULL”) at the end of 2019, ULL has become the co-lead with Mymetics for this project. The overall budget related to the project is US$8,850 with US$1,940 approved for the first year, US$1,856 approved for the second year, and US$1,720 for the third year. In April 2022, the Company filed a report to the NIH in collaboration with ULL, to validate funds for the fifth year of the ongoing HIV project (May 2022 to April 2023). The funds for the fourth year were approved in May 2022 with a total budget of US$ 1,616.

The amounts mentioned in the following statements are purely related to the Company and not to the other partners in the project: The overall portion of the grant allocated to the Company is US$5,930, with US$1,190 approved for the first year, US$1,052 for the second year, US$ 1,078 for the third year and US$1,328 approved in June 2022 for the fourth year. 

The cost incurred and granted under the sub-award with Texas Biomed for the period of May to December 2019 was US$547 (€542). The sub-award contract between ULL and the Company for the period of January 2020 to April 2021, was signed for a total budget of US$870 and US$1,078 for the period May 2021 to April 2022. The total grant revenue incurred as of today is US$2,666 (€2,527), of which US$842 (€779) has been incurred during the six-months ended June 30, 2022. First results are expected to be reported in 2023.

 

The project has the objective to prepare the Company’s promising HIV-1 vaccine candidate for clinical trials, by first executing a non-human primate (“NHP”) study, where the test subjects will be receiving Mymetics’ virosome based HIV-1 vaccine candidate by several intra-muscular and intra-nasal applications, followed by rectal challenges. As of June 30, 2022, Mymetics has successfully produced five sets of virosome based vaccines and the NHPs have received two intramuscular vaccinations and three intranasal vaccinations in two different studies. The vaccinations were well tolerated. These studies are ongoing. The vaccine is created to induce protective mucosal antibodies acting as a frontline defense against sexual HIV transmission. This awarded grant from the NIH will allow the Company to continue some of the developments that were achieved during the European Horizon 2020 project.

 

In February 2022, Mymetics announced the publication of results in Frontiers in Immunology with title: “Cooperation between Systemic and Mucosal Antibodies Induced by Virosomal Vaccines Targeting HIV-1 Env: Protection of Indian Rhesus Macaques against Mucosal SHIV challenges”.

 

Option to License Agreement – ANERGIS SA

 

In April 2018 Mymetics engaged in a Research and Option to License Agreement with Anergis SA. Under the agreement, a mice proof-of-concept immunogenicity study evaluated the effects of the Bet v 1 COPs (Anergis’ proprietary birch pollen allergy peptides) using the five subcutaneous injection schedules used in former AllerT clinical trials. The development of AllerT (Bet v 1 COPs plus aluminum hydroxide) was discontinued by Anergis in 2017 following completion of a Phase 2 clinical trial showing evidence of sensitization to the peptides and a 7% reduction in seasonal allergy symptoms vs placebo (p=0.0047). In the mice study, AllerT was compared to Bet v 1 COPs linked to Mymetics’ virosomes (the “Bet v 1 COP-virosomes”).

 

In December 2018 Anergis and Mymetics reported that the administration of AllerT led to the development of Bet v 1 specific IgEs (p<0.001) associated with a more pronounced TH2 than TH1 response. In contrast, in the mice receiving the Bet v 1 COP-virosomes, no development of Bet v 1 specific IgEs were observed (p<0.001 vs AllerT). With the same dose of Bet v 1 COPs, there was a strong boost of immunogenicity with a TH1 antibody response, which was a hundred times greater than with aluminum hydroxide (p<0.001). The Bet v 1 COP-virosomes were well tolerated. The success criteria were met and Anergis had a time limited option to enter into an exclusive license agreement with Mymetics for the use of virosomes in the field of allergies.

 

In October 2019, Mymetics announced that Anergis SA started a new study with Stallergenes Greer SA whereby the COP-Virosomes were tested in the therapeutic mouse model of birch allergy in comparison with positive controls, i.e., birch allergen and birch pollen extract. This model has been confirmed as having predictive value towards the future clinical efficacy of new AIT treatment candidates.

 

In May 2020, Mymetics announced the results of the study with Stallergenes Greer, a worldwide leader in allergen immunotherapy (AIT) and Anergis, a leader in ultra-fast AIT research and development. The results showed that a treatment with COP-virosomes was able to cure allergic asthma in birch pollen sensitized mice and that the COP-virosomes were significantly superior to the COP or the virosome alone, confirming the synergy between COP and virosomes to foster an improved second-generation AIT treatment.

 

In January 2021, following the two successful studies with its virosome platform, Mymetics announced the acceptance of its joint publication in the scientific journal Clinical & Experimental Allergy with Stallergenes Greer SA and Anergis SA, with the title: Bet v 1 contiguous overlapping peptides anchored to virosomes with TLR4 agonist enhance immunotherapy efficacy in mice.

 

As of February 1, 2021, Anergis SA has entered into liquidation since it was not able to raise sufficient funds to continue to operate. As of June 17, 2022, Anergis SA has entered into bankruptcy proceedings.

 

RECEIVABLES

 

Receivables are stated at their outstanding principal balances. Management reviews the collectability of receivables on a periodic basis and determines the appropriate amount of any allowance. There was no allowance necessary at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The Company writes off receivables to the allowance when management determines that a receivable is not collectible. The Company may retain a security interest in the products sold.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated over its estimated useful life on straight-line basis from the date placed in service. Estimated useful lives are usually taken as three years.

 

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

 

Long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. The impairment testing involves comparing the carrying amount to the forecasted undiscounted future cash flows generated by that asset. In the event the carrying value of the assets exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows generated by that asset and the carrying value is not considered recoverable, impairment exists. An impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value, calculated using a discounted future cash flow method. An impairment loss would be recognized in net income (loss) in the period that the impairment occurs.

 

GOODWILL

 

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of a business acquired. The Company typically performs its annual goodwill impairment test effective as of April 1 of each year, unless events or circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred before that time. The Company assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. After assessing qualitative factors, the Company determined that no further testing was necessary. If further testing was necessary, the Company would determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare the fair value to the reporting unit’s carrying amount. The Company has one reporting unit.

 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

 

WITHHOLDING TAXES

 

On March 10, 2021, the Swiss Federal tax administration conducted a withholding tax audit on Mymetics SA’s financial statements for the years 2015 to 2019. At the end of the tax audit, the tax inspector concluded that a portion of the intercompany interest expenses related to the subordinated loan from Mymetics Corporation to Mymetics SA could be considered as a hidden dividend distribution and therefore subject to Swiss withholding tax. The tax inspector encouraged the Company to file the relevant Swiss withholding tax forms to benefit from the double tax treaty between Switzerland and the United States. All required documentation has been sent, assessed and approved by the Swiss Federal tax administration. The portion of the intercompany interest expenses related to the subordinated loan from Mymetics Corporation to Mymetics SA is considered as a hidden dividend distribution and therefore subject to Swiss withholding tax at a reduced tax rate of 5% and based on the double tax treaty in force between Switzerland and the United State of America. All required tax declaration forms have been filed and the related withholding tax amounts have been accounted for as of December 31, 2021.

 

TAXES ON INCOME

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax laws or rates.

 

The Company reports a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties, if any, are recorded as a component of interest expense and other expense, respectively.

 

The Company has not recorded any liabilities for uncertain tax positions or any related interest and penalties at June 30, 2022 nor December 31, 2021. The Company’s United States tax returns are open to audit for the years ended December 31, 2015 to 2019. The returns for the Swiss subsidiary, Mymetics S.A., are open to audit for the year ended December 31, 2021. The returns for the Netherlands subsidiaries, Bestewil B.V. and Mymetics B.V., are open to audit for the year ended December 31, 2021.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per share) and potentially dilutive securities. For the periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, options and convertible debt were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive due to net losses incurred under the treasury stock method.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the basic weighted and diluted average number of shares was 303,757,622. The total potential number of shares issuable of 784,480,472 at June 30, 2022 includes 758,730,472 potential issuable shares related to convertible loans, and 25,750,000 potential issuable shares related to outstanding stock options granted to employees.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the basic weighted and diluted average number of shares was 303,757,622. The total potential number of shares issuable of 747,880,794 at June 30, 2021 includes 722,130,794 potential issuable shares related to convertible loans, and 25,750,000 potential issuable shares related to outstanding stock options granted to employees.

 

PREFERRED STOCK

 

The Company has authorized 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock that may be issued in several series with varying dividend, conversion and voting rights. No preferred shares are issued or outstanding at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

 

ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fair value guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

 

 

Level 1-

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2-

Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated byobservable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3-

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the

assets or liabilities.

               

FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company generally has the following financial instruments: cash, receivables, accounts payable, and notes payable. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximates their fair value based on the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Management believes the fair value of the note’s payable is reflecting the actual value reported for these instruments.

 

CONCENTRATIONS

 

The Company derived 100% and 99% of grant revenue for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, from one grantor, respectively. For the period ended December 31, 2021, the Company derived 99% of grant revenue from one partner.

 

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Mr. Ernest M. Stern, the Company’s outside U.S. counsel, is both a director of the Company and is a partner in Culhane Meadows PLLC, the firm retained as legal counsel by the Company. The Company incurred professional fees to the counsel’s law firms totaling €27 and €3 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 respectively; and €33 and €14 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Two of the Company’s major shareholders have granted secured convertible notes and short-term convertible notes and promissory notes, which have a total carrying amount of €69,073 including interest due as of June 30, 2022. Conversion prices on the Euro-denominated convertible debt have been fixed to a fixed Euro/US dollar exchange rate.

 

Note 2. Debt Financing

 

Certain principal shareholders have granted the Company secured convertible notes (in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code in the State of Delaware), short term convertible notes and other short-term notes, which have a total carrying value of €69,531 including interest due to date. Interest incurred on these notes since inception has been added to the principal amounts.

On April 2, 2020, the Swiss entity, Mymetics SA, received a federal credit line of Chf168 (€156) in relation with the Covid-19 pandemic. This credit line applies for five years and is fully guaranteed by the Swiss Confederation via guaranteed organizations. The interest rate is currently at 0 percent until March 31, 2021. The Swiss Confederation has the right to adjust the interest rate to the market rate. The first revision took place as of April 1, 2021, but no modification was applied. A first amortization installment of €28 will be due on September 30, 2022. This installment is related to the period of March to September 2022.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

GENERAL

 

The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Mymetics Corporation for the periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and related notes and the description of the Company’s business and properties included elsewhere herein.

 

This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The statements contained in this report are not purely historical but are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These forward-looking statements concern matters that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue”, “probably” or similar words are intended to identify forward looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity performance or achievements. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date hereof to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

 

Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us which attempt to advise interested parties of the factors which affect our business, including without limitation disclosures made under the captions “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Risk Factors,” “Consolidated Financial Statements” and “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and, to the extent included therein, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed during fiscal year 2022.

 

IMPACT OF THE NOVEL CORONAVIRUS

 

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to evolve. Although at this date the restrictive measures and impacts are reduced due to the role out of vaccination programs, the extent to which the outbreak impacts our business, preclinical studies and clinical trials will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the pandemic, travel restrictions and social distancing, business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken in the U.S., Europe, and other countries to contain and treat the disease. As such, it is uncertain as to the full magnitude that the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations.

 

Management has taken measures in-line with the country requirements where we are operational and actively monitoring the impact of this global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, scientific collaborations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for fiscal year 2022.

 

The Company is dependent on its workforce to deliver and advance its research. Developments such as physical distancing and working from home directives have and will continue to impact the Company’s ability to deploy its workforce effectively. While restrictions are being lifted across the world, prolonged workforce disruptions may negatively impact future revenues for the remainder of fiscal year 2022 and the Company’s overall liquidity.

 

The Company is dependent on its partners in certain projects, such as the University of Louisiana at Lafayette (“ULL”) for the NIH funded project to maintain the agreed timelines and execute their tasks. Developments such as social distancing and shelter-in-place directives and lock-down directives have and will continue to impact the Company’s ability to execute on project plans and research objectives effectively. While expected to be temporary, prolonged disruptions in collaboration projects may negatively impact funding for the fiscal year 2022 and the Company’s overall liquidity.

Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2022.

 

CORONAVIRUS AID, RELIEF AND ECONOMIC SECURITY ACT

 

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. Government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law. The CARES Act includes various income and payroll tax provisions. The Company has analyzed the tax provisions of the CARES Act and determined they have no significant financial impact to the condensed financial statements. The Company has no intention of taking advantage of other benefits but will continue to evaluate the impact on the Company’s financial position.

 

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022 AND 2021

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, revenue was €297 and €159, respectively, which was related to the revenue recognized for the work performed under the NIH grant / HIV project.

 

Costs and expenses increased to €727 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from €585 (24.3%) for the three months ended June 30, 2021, of which:

 

 

o

Research and development expenses increased to €400 in the current period from €308 (29.9%) in the comparative period of 2021, mainly due to subcontracting services in relation with the NIH grant / HIV project incurred during the three-month period ending June 2022.

 

 

 

 

o

General and administrative expenses increased to €327 in the three months ended June 30, 2022 from €277 (18.1%) in the comparative period of 2021, mainly due €27 incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2022 related to the engagement as of May 2022 of consultants that will seek business development opportunities for the Company with the goal of obtaining deals for licensing, financing, and/or acquisition.

 

Interest expense increased to €699 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from €684 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 related to an increase in existing loans from related parties.

 

Foreign exchange revaluation, recorded in Other (income) expense, generated a net loss of (€196) and net gain of €33 during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which was due to the revaluation of existing US$ based loans from related parties and US$ cash position reflecting the strong US$ with respect to the Euro.

 

The Company reported a net loss of (€1,342), or (€0.00) per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of (€1,102), or (€0.00) per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

 

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022 AND 2021

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, revenue was €782 and €293, respectively, which was mainly related to the revenue recognized for the work performed under the NIH grant / HIV project.

 

Costs and expenses increased to €1,641 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from €1,130 (45.2%) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, of which:

 

 

o

Research and development expenses increased to €982 in the current period from €562 (74.7%) in the comparative period of 2021, mainly due to the purchase of “influenza inactivated virus” during the first quarter in 2022 in relation with the NIH grant / HIV project.

 

 

 

 

o

General and administrative expenses increased to €659 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from €568 (16.0%) in the comparative period of 2021, mainly due related to the engagement as of May 2022 of consultants that will seek business development opportunities for the Company with the goal of obtaining deals for licensing, financing, and/or acquisition.

 

 
16

 

 

Foreign exchange revaluation, recorded in Other (income) expense, generated a net loss of €266 and €79 during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which is due to the revaluation of existing US$ based loans from related parties and US$ cash position, reflecting the strong US$ in relation to the Euro.

 

The Company reported a net loss of (€2,553), or (€0.01) per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of (€2,348), or (€0.01) per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

We had cash of €350 at June 30, 2022 compared to €571 at December 31, 2021.

 

During 2021, our revenue has mainly been generated through the NIH grant / HIV project. For 2022, new significant revenues are not expected unless and until a major licensing agreement or other commercial arrangement is entered into with respect to our technology or new grant financings are awarded.

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately €100 million, and had net loss of €2,553 in the six-month period ending on that date. We expect to continue to incur net losses in the future for research, development and activities related to the future licensing of our technologies, and because of the accrual of interest payable on existing loans.

 

Net cash used from operating activities increased to €824 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to €797 for the same period in 2021, mainly due to the receivable related to the NIH grant / HIV project incurred during the six-month period ending June 30, 2022.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was €2 during the six-months ended June 30, 2022 and €10 during the same period in 2021, mainly due to new IT equipment in Epalinges in 2022 and new laboratory equipment in Leiden in 2021.

 

Financing activities provided net cash of 600 for the six-months ended June 30, 2022, related to new promissory notes from our main investors, and €(1) for the six-months ended June 30, 2021.

 

Salaries and related payroll costs represent gross salaries for two executives, our CSO of Mymetics BV and seven employees. Under Executive Employment Agreements with our CEO and two CSOs, we pay our executive officers a combined amount of €65 per month.

 

Our Swiss subsidiary, Mymetics S.A., has, besides the CEO and CSO, two additional employees on its payroll: Director of Finance and Head of Manufacturing and Quality. Mymetics BV has, besides the full time Chief Scientific Officer, two full-time technicians and one part-time assistant.

 

We intend to continue to incur additional expenditures during the next nine months for additional research and development of our HIV, Covid-19 vaccines and immunotherapy projects, which we will try to seek through collaborations with pharmaceutical companies or with not-for-profit organizations. These expenditures will relate to the continued research and testing of these prototype vaccines and are included in the monthly cash outflow described above.

 

In the past, we have financed our research and development activities primarily through debt and equity financings from various parties and through license and collaboration agreements and grant agreements.

 

We anticipate that our normal operations will require approximately €400 additional funding as of December 31, 2022. We will seek to raise the additional capital from equity or debt financings, and grants through donors and potential partnerships with major international pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms. However, there can be no assurance that it will be able to raise additional capital on satisfactory terms, or at all, to finance its operations on the longer term. In the event that we are not able to obtain such additional capital, we will be required to further restrict or even cease our operations.

 

Monthly fixed and recurring expenses for “Property leases” of €13 represent the monthly lease and maintenance payments to unaffiliated third parties for our offices, of which €4 is related to our executive office located at Route de la Corniche 4, 1066 Epalinges in Switzerland (100 square meters), and €9 related to Bestewil Holding B.V. and its subsidiary Mymetics B.V operating from a similar biotechnology campus near Leiden in the Netherlands, where they occupy 204 square meters.

 

Included in professional fees are legal fees paid to outside corporate counsel and audit and review fees paid to our independent accountants, and fees paid for investor relations.

 

Cumulative interest expense of €32,787 has been accrued on all of the Company’s outstanding notes and advances (see detailed table in Note 2 to the financial statements).

RECENT FINANCING ACTIVITIES

 

During the six-month period ending June 30, 2022, our principal source of funds has been promissory notes received in a prior quarter from our two main investors and the revenue generated through the NIH grant / HIV project.

 

We have filed or are in the process of filing several new grant applications with U.S. and European institutions in relation to our virosome based vaccines.

 

We anticipate using our current funds and those we receive in the future both to meet our working capital needs and for funding the ongoing vaccines pre-clinical research costs for new virosome vaccine.

 

Management anticipates that our existing capital resources will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements through the next five months. We have cash presently on hand in conjunction with the collection of receivables, based upon our current levels of expenditures and anticipated needs during this period. For 2022, we will need additional funding through future collaborative arrangements, licensing arrangements, and debt and equity financings under Regulation D and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. We do not know whether additional financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms when needed. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

If management cannot raise funds on acceptable terms when needed, we may not be able to successfully commercialize our technologies, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to unanticipated requirements. If unable to secure such additional financing when needed, we will have to curtail or suspend all or a portion of our business activities and could be required to cease operations entirely. Further, if new equity securities are issued, our shareholders may experience severe dilution of their ownership percentage.

 

The extent and timing of our future capital requirements will depend primarily upon the rate of our progress in the research and development of our technologies, our ability to enter into a partnership agreement with a major pharmaceutical company, and the results of our present projects and future clinical trials.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

INTEREST RATE RISK

 

Fluctuations in interest rates may affect the fair value of financial instruments. An increase in market interest rates may increase interest payments and a decrease in market interest rates may decrease interest payments of such financial instruments. We have no debt obligations which are sensitive to interest rate fluctuations as all our notes payable have fixed interest rates, as specified on the individual loan notes.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a−15(e) and 15d15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (currently the same person to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure) concluded as of June 30, 2022, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weakness described below.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a15(f) and 15d15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022, based on the criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. No changes of internal control over financial reporting were made in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

INHERENT LIMITATIONS ON EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS

 

Our management, Ronald Kempers, who is both CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, 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 the company have been detected.

 

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
