Class A Units
Each Class A Unit Consisting of
One Share
of Common Stock and
One Series A Warrant to Purchase One Share of
Common Stock
Class B Units
Each Class B Unit Consisting
of __ Shares of Series B Preferred Stock and One Series A Warrant to
Purchase One Share of
Common Stock
This is a firm commitment
public offering of ____ Class A Units (“Class A Units”), with each Class A Unit consisting of one share of our common
stock, par value $0.001 per share, and one Series A Warrant to purchase one share our common stock (and the shares issuable from time
to time upon exercise of the Series A Warrants) pursuant to this prospectus based on an assumed offer price of $____ for each Class A
Unit. Each Series A Warrant will have an exercise price of $____ (assumed) per share, will be exercisable upon issuance and will expire
five years from issuance. We expect the public offering price will be $______ per Class A Unit.
The Class A Units have no
stand-alone rights, will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities and there will be no trading market for the Class A
Units. The shares of common stock and the Series A Warrants comprising the Class A Units will separate immediately upon completion of
this offering and prior to any trading of the common stock and Series A Warrants.
We are also offering to those purchasers, whose purchase
at least $250,000 of Class A Units or whose purchase of Class A Units in this offering would result in the purchaser, together with its
affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding
common stock following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, in lieu of the number of Class A Units that would
result in ownership in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock or who would purchase
at least $250,000 of Class A Units, a unit consisting of one share of Series B convertible preferred stock, par value $.001 per share
(“Series B Preferred Stock”), convertible at any time at the holder’s option into a number of shares of common stock
equal to $5,000 divided by $_____, the public offering price per Class A Unit (the “Conversion Price”), and warrants to purchase
a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series B Preferred
Stock (“Class B Unit”) at a public offering price of $5,000 per Class B unit. The Series B preferred shares contain price
protection so that if any offering is made of our Common Stock or common stock equivalents at a price per share lower than the offering
price per share in this offering, the conversion price of the Series B Preferred shares will automatically be reduced to the lower price
per share. The warrants included in the Class B Units will have the same terms as the warrants included in the Class A Units. For
each Class B Unit we sell, the number of Class A Units we are offering will be decreased on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Because we will
issue a Series A Warrant as part of the Class A Unit or Class B Unit, the number of Series A Warrants sold in this offering will not
change as a result of the change in the mix of Class A Units and Class B Units.
Our common stock trades
on the OTCQB® Venture Market under the symbol “SIGY”. On May 9, 2023, the last report sale price of our common
stock on the OTCQB® Venture Market was $0.1508. Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Class
A Units or our Series A Warrants. We plan to apply to
have our shares of common stock listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SIGY”. No assurance can be given that
our application will be approved or that the trading price of our common stock on the OTCQB® Venture Market will be indicative of
the prices of our common stock if our common stock were traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If, for whatever reason, Nasdaq does
not confirm the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq prior to the pricing of the offering, we will not be able to consummate and will
terminate this offering. There is no established trading market for the Series A Warrants or the Series B Preferred Stock. In addition,
we do not intend to apply for the listing of the Series A Warrants or the Series B Preferred on any national securities exchange or other
trading market. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Series A Warrants and the Series B Preferred Stock will be limited.
The number of Class A Units and Class B Unit offered
in this prospectus and all other applicable information has been determined based on an assumed public offering price of $_____
per Class A Unit and $___ per Class B Unit, which is based on the last reported sales price of our common stock of $
on , 2023. The actual public offering price of the Class
A Units and Class B Units will be determined between the underwriters and us at the time of pricing, considering our historical performance
and capital structure, prevailing market conditions, and overall assessment of our business, and may be at a discount to the current
market price. Therefore, the assumed public offering price per Class A Unit and Class B Unit used throughout this prospectus may not
be indicative of the actual public offering price for the Class A Units and Class B Units. See “Determination of Offering Price”
for additional information.
Investing
in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 6 of this
prospectus for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in our
securities.
We
are an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws and may elect to comply with certain reduced public company
reporting requirements for future filings.
Neither
the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined
if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Class B Units (a) a public offering price per share of Series B Preferred Stock of

A Units in the offering) from us in any combination thereof at the public offering price per share of common stock equal to the
public offering price per Class A Unit minus $0.01 per share and $0.01 per Series A Warrant, respectively, less the underwriting discounts
payable by us, solely to cover over-allotments, if any.
The
underwriters expect to deliver the securities to purchasers in the offering on or about ,
2023.

PROSPECTUS
SUMMARY
Except
as otherwise indicated, as used in this prospectus, references to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”
refer to Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc.
The
following summary highlights selected information contained in this prospectus, and it may not contain all of the information that is
important to you. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including “Risk Factors”
and our financial statements and related notes, included elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus.
Our
Company
Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sigyn”, the
“Company” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a development-stage company focused on addressing
unmet needs in global health. Sigyn Therapy™ is a broad-spectrum blood purification technology designed to reduce the presence
of viral pathogens, bacterial toxins, and inflammatory mediators from the bloodstream.
Candidate treatment indications for Sigyn
Therapy include endotoxemia and inflammation in End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) dialysis patients, Sepsis (leading cause of hospital
deaths worldwide1), Community Acquired Pneumonia (a leading cause of death among infectious diseases2) and
Emerging Bioterror and Pandemic threats.
Beyond
our focus to clinically advance Sigyn Therapy, we intend to develop a pipeline of extracorporeal blood purification therapies. In this
regard, we have filed patent and trademark submissions related to a therapeutic system to enhance the delivery of cancer chemotherapy
and reduce its toxicity. At present, we have no market approved medical products.

Risks
and Challenges That We Face
An
investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks summarized below and the other risks
that are discussed more fully in the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus immediately following this prospectus summary.
These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:
|
● |
Demand
and market acceptance of our product offerings may be considerably less than what we currently anticipate. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
may be unable to increase revenues in the manner in which we anticipate and generate profitability. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
may face challenges in successfully completing U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) testing requirements. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
may not be able to meet increased and changing regulatory requirements. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
believe the FDA will classify our lead product candidate to be a significant risk Class III
device, which would require extensive pre-clinical and clinical studies to be conducted along
with the submission of a Pre-Market Approval (PMA) application prior to market clearance
consideration by FDA. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
will need to raise additional capital to fully commercialize our products. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Some
of our target products may face an uncertain regulatory environment. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
may be unable to expand operations and manage growth. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
may be unable to retain key members of our management and development teams and to recruit additional qualified personnel. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
face competition from companies that have greater resources than we do and we may not be able to effectively compete against
these companies. |
|
|
|
|
● |
We
face risks as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. |
|
|
|
|
● |
As
stated in their audit opinion for our audited financials for the year ended December 31, 2021, our auditors believe that we may not
be able to continue as a going concern. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Since
inception, our primary focus has been directed toward the advancement of Sigyn Therapy. As of December 31, 2022, we have an
accumulated deficit of $___ million and a working capital deficit of $___ million. |
Implications
of Being an Emerging Growth Company
We
are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, or the Securities Act, as modified
by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions
from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including,
but not limited to:
|
● |
being permitted to present only two years of audited financial
statements and only two years of related disclosure in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations” in this prospectus; |
|
|
|
|
● |
being permitted to provide less extensive narrative disclosure
than other public companies including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration
statements; |
|
|
|
|
● |
being permitted to utilize exemptions from the requirements
of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously
approved; |
|
|
|
|
● |
being permitted to defer complying with certain changes in
accounting standards; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
being permitted to use test-the-waters communications with
qualified institutional buyers and institutional accredited investors. |
We
intend to take advantage of these and other exemptions available to “emerging growth companies.” We could remain an “emerging
growth company” until the earliest of (a) the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the closing of this
offering, (b) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1.235 billion, (c) the last day
of our fiscal year in which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act (which would occur if the market value of our equity securities that is held by non-affiliates
exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter), or (d) the date on which we have
issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the preceding three-year period.
The
JOBS Act permits an “emerging growth company” like us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new
or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. This means that an “emerging growth company” can delay the
adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to delay such
adoption of new or revised accounting standards.
Available
Information
We
file various reports with the SEC, including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form
8-K, which are available through the SEC’s electronic data gathering, analysis and retrieval system (“EDGAR”) by accessing
the SEC’s home page (http://www.sec.gov).

THE
OFFERING
Class A Units offered by us: |
|
We
are offering Class A Units. Each Class A Unit consists of one share of our common stock and
a Series A Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock (together with the shares of
common stock underlying such warrants). The Class A Units will not be certificated or issued
in stand-alone form. The shares of our common stock and the Series A Warrants comprising
the Class A Units are immediately separable upon issuance and will be issued separately in
this offering. |

We are also offering to those purchasers, who purchase
at least $250,000 of Class A Units or whose purchase of Class A Units in this offering would result in the purchaser, together
with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%)
of our outstanding common stock following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, in lieu of the number of
Class A Units that would result in ownership in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding
common stock, or who would purchase at least $250,000 of Class A Units, Class B Units. Each Class B Unit will consist of one
share of Series B Preferred Stock convertible into a number of shares of common stock equal to $5,000 divided by $____, the public
offering price per Class A Unit (the “Conversion Price”), and warrants to purchase a number of shares of common stock
equal to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series B Preferred Stock (together with the
shares of common stock underlying such shares of Series B Preferred Stock and such warrants). The Class B Units are immediately separable
into their components upon closing of the offering contemplated hereby. For each Class B Unit we sell, the number of Class A Units
we are offering will be decreased on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Because we will issue a warrant as part of each Unit, the number
of warrants sold in this offering will not change as a result of a change in the mix of the Units sold. |

Description of Series B Preferred Stock: |
|
Each share of Series B Preferred
Stock is convertible at any time at the holder’s option into a number of shares
of common stock equal to $5,000 divided by the Conversion Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
we shall not effect any conversion of Series B Preferred Stock, with certain exceptions,
to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion, the holder of shares
of Series B Preferred Stock (together with such holder’s affiliates, and any
persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates)
would beneficially own a number of shares of our common stock in excess of 4.99% (or, at
the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the shares of our common stock then outstanding
after giving effect to such exercise. The Series B Preferred Stock does not generally have
any voting rights. For additional information, see “Description of Securities—Series

|
Use
of proceeds: |
|
We estimate
that we will receive approximately $___________ in gross proceeds if we sell all of the Class
A Units in the offering (based on an assumed offering price of $[__] per Class A Unit, which
was the last reported sales price of our common stock on the OTCQB® Venture Market on ,
2023), and we will receive estimated net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts
and estimated offering expenses) (assuming no exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment
option, the Series A Warrants included in the Class A Units and Class B Units or the Representatives’
Warrants offered hereby).
We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with our existing cash and cash equivalents, to fund our research and development activities, clinical trials and the regulatory review process, and the remainder for working capital and other general corporate purposes. See “Use of Proceeds” for a more detailed explanation of how the proceeds from the Offering will be used. |
Over-allotment option: |
|
We have granted a 45-day option to the representative of
the underwriters to purchase up to additional shares of common stock and/or additional Series A Warrants, based on an assumed
public offering price of $ per Class A Unit or $__ per Class B Unit, which was the last reported sales price of our common stock
on the OTCQB® Venture Market on , 2023 (having the same terms as
the Series A Warrants included in the Class A Units and Class B Units in the offering) from us in any combination thereof at a price
per share of common stock equal to the public offering price per Class A Unit and Class B Unit minus $0.01 and a price per warrant
of $0.01, respectively, in each case, less the underwriting discounts payable by us, solely to cover over-allotments, if any. |
|

|
Representative’s
Warrants |
|
The
registration statement of which this prospectus is a part also registers for sale warrants (the “Representative’s Warrants”)
to purchase shares of our common stock (based on an assumed offering price of $ per share, which was the last reported sales price
of our common stock as quoted on the OTCQB® Venture Market on , 2023)
to Univest Securities, LLC (the “representative”), as the representative of the several underwriters, as a portion
of the underwriting compensation payable to the representative in connection with this offering. The representative’s warrants
will be exercisable at any time, and from time to time, in whole or in part, during the four and one half period commencing 180 days
following the commencement of sales of the securities in this offering at an exercise price of $[__] (110% of the assumed public
offering price of the Class A Units). Please see “Underwriting—Representative’s Warrants” for a description
of these warrants. |

Trading
symbol: |
|
Our
common stock currently trades on the OTCQB® Venture Market under the symbol
“SIGY”. We plan to apply to have our shares of common stock listed on the Nasdaq
Capital Market under the symbol “SIGY”. No assurance can be given that our application
will be approved or that the trading prices of our common stock on the OTCQB® Venture
Market will be indicative of the prices of our common stock if our common stock were
traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If, for whatever reason, Nasdaq does not confirm the
listing of our common stock on Nasdaq prior to the pricing of the offering, we will not be
able to consummate and will terminate this offering.
There is no established trading market for the
Series B Preferred Stock or the Series A Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for
the listing of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Series A Warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without
an active trading market, the liquidity of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series A Warrants will be limited. |
|
|
|
Series
A Warrants: |
|
The
exercise price of the Series A Warrants shall be 110% of the offering price of the Class A Units. The Series A Warrants have a
five-year term. The Series A Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and at any time up to the date that
is five years after their original issuance. The Series A Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in
part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and, at any time a registration statement registering the issuance of the
shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrants under the Securities Act is effective and available for the issuance of such
shares, or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available for the issuance of such shares, by payment in full
in immediately available funds for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon such exercise. If a registration statement
registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrants under the Securities Act is not
effective or available and an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is not available for the issuance of such shares,
the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise the Series A Warrant through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would
receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Series A Warrant. No
fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a Series A Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will
pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price. |

RISK
FACTORS
You
should carefully consider the risks described below before investing in our securities. Additional risks not presently known to us or
that our management currently deems immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the risks described below were to occur,
our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. In such an event, the trading
price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. In assessing these risks, you should also
refer to the other information contained in this Prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes. The risks
discussed below include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking
statements.
Risks
Related to Financial Condition
We
are a development-stage therapeutic organization whose primary focus in the foreseeable future will be the clinical progression of Sigyn
Therapy toward market clearance.
We
are a development stage company with no approved medical products.
To date, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to support the development of Sigyn Therapy. This includes the completion
in vitro blood purification validation studies, animal studies, the establishment of initial manufacturing protocols, staffing
our organization, establishing our intellectual property portfolio, drafting regulatory documents and raising capital to support these
activities. However, there is no assurance that we will obtain the capital resources necessary to continue to advance Sigyn Therapy or
other product candidates toward market approval.
We
have incurred significant net losses since inception and do not anticipate that we will generate revenue in the near future. It is expected
that we will continue to incur substantial net losses in the foreseeable future and we may never achieve profitability.
We
are a development-stage medical technology company. Investment in development-stage therapeutic organizations is speculative based on
the need for substantial capital resources and the risk that therapeutic candidates will not receive regulatory approval or become commercially
viable if market cleared. We have incurred losses in each year since inception. Our net losses were approximately $3.0 million and $1.3
million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and our net losses for the nine months ended September
30, 2022 were approximately $1.6 million. As of December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit
of approximately $4.3 million and $6.3 million respectively. We expect to continue to spend significant resources to fund the
clinical progression of Sigyn Therapy and other potential product candidates.
Going
Concern Risk Factor.
As
described in our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained elsewhere in this prospectus for
that same time period, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph indicating that our current
liquidity position raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. It is anticipated that we will continue
to operate as a going concern until the completion of this offering; however, there are no assurances that we will be able to
continue our operations if this offering is delayed.
Upon
the completion of this offering, we may require additional capital in the future to fund the continuance of our operations. If we are
unable to raise additional capital when needed, we could be forced to delay, reduce or terminate our clinical development programs.
We
believe that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $____ million, based on an assumed public offering price of $[__]
per Class A Unit and Class B Unit, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses
payable by us. We believe that such proceeds will fund our operations plan for up to 24 months after the completion of the offering.
Accordingly, we acknowledge that there will be a need to raise additional capital to fund future operations, which may include the continued
clinical progression of Sigyn Therapy and other potential product candidates. However, our business or operations plan may change as
a result of factors currently unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned. However, there is no assurance
that we will be able to secure funding when we need it or on favorable terms. Additionally, our ability to raise additional capital
could be adversely impacted by market conditions or a worsening global economic climate.
Purchasers
of our stock will experience dilution.
At
September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had a net tangible book value of approximately $0.004 and $0.012 per share of our
common stock, respectively. If you purchase our common stock from us in our Offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution
to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of our common stock (assuming a $
per share public offering price, which is the assumed public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) and the as
adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after the offering of $
per share (assuming all shares in the Offering are sold at $
per share, which is the assumed public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus).
A
small group of Company officers and directors hold a majority of the control of the Company.
As
of December 22, 2022, the Company’s executive officers and directors beneficially owned approximately 68.9% of the
Company’s outstanding common stock. By virtue of such stock ownership, the principal shareholders are able to control the election
of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors and to generally exercise control over the affairs of the Company. Such concentration
of ownership could also have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of the Company that might otherwise
be beneficial to stockholders. There can be no assurance that conflicts of interest will not arise with respect to such directors or
that such conflicts will be resolved in a manner favorable to the Company.
Intellectual
Property Risk Factors
We
currently own the rights to U.S. and foreign patents pending and patent applications and endeavor to continually improve our intellectual
property position. We consider the protection of our technology to be vital to our business. While we intend to focus primarily on patentable
technology, we may also rely on trade secrets, unpatented property, know-how, regulatory exclusivity, patent extensions and continuing
technological innovation to develop our competitive position. We also own rights to the trademarks Sigyn Therapeutics™ and Sigyn
Therapy™.
Our
success will depend in large part on our ability to protect our proprietary technologies, including Sigyn Therapy, and to operate without
infringing the proprietary rights of third parties. We rely on a combination of patent, trade secret, copyright and trademark laws, as
well as confidentiality agreements, and other agreements to establish and protect our proprietary rights. Our success also depends, in
part, on our ability to avoid infringing patents issued to others. If we were judicially determined to be infringing on any third-party
patent, we could be required to pay damages, alter our products or processes, obtain licenses, or cease sales of products or certain
activities.
It
is possible that our pending patent applications may not result in issued patents, and that we will not develop additional proprietary
products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us may not provide us with competitive advantages or will be challenged by third
parties and that the patents of others may prevent the commercialization of products incorporating our technology. Furthermore, others
may independently develop similar products, duplicate our products or design around our patents. U.S. patent applications are not immediately
made public, so it is possible that a third party may obtain a patent on a technology we are actively using. Additionally, there is a
risk that any patent applications that we file or later obtain could be challenged by third parties and declared invalid or unenforceable.
Patent
law outside the United States is uncertain and currently undergoing review and revisions in many countries. The laws of some countries
may not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Third parties may attempt to oppose the issuance
of patents to us in foreign countries by initiating opposition proceedings. Opposition proceedings against any of our patent filings
in a foreign country could have an adverse effect on our corresponding patents that may be issued or pending in the United States. In
addition to patent protection, we rely on unpatented trade secrets and proprietary technological expertise. It is possible that others
could independently develop or otherwise acquire substantially equivalent technology or somehow gain access to our trade secrets and
proprietary technological expertise.
We
Face Industry & Competition Risks
Based
on the size of the market opportunity, the industry to treat sepsis and other life-threatening inflammatory conditions is expected to
become extremely competitive. As a development-stage device, Sigyn Therapy faces the challenge of establishing medical industry support,
which will be driven by treatment data resulting from human clinical studies. Should Sigyn Therapy become market cleared, we are likely
to face significant competition. Additionally, we will need to establish large-scale production of Sigyn Therapy in order to be competitive
in the marketplace.
In
the absence of approved drug agents to treat sepsis and other life-threatening disorders, our competition is likely to come from organizations
that develop extracorporeal blood purification therapies. Among these therapies are a cytokine adsorption technology (CytoSorb from Cytosorbents
Corporation); a technology that removes circulating endotoxin (Toraymyxn from Toray Industries); and two devices that target the removal
of pathogens from the bloodstream (the Hemopurifier from Aethlon Medical) and (the Seraph-100 Microbind Affinity Filter from Exthera
Medical).
CytoSorb
is a clinical-stage therapeutic candidate in the United States and market cleared in more than 40 countries outside the U.S. CytoSorb
was recently cleared to treat severe COVID-19 infections under FDA Emergency-Use Authorization (EUA) based on its ability to adsorb inflammatory
cytokines from the bloodstream.
Toraymyxn
is a clinical-stage therapeutic candidate in the United States and broadly market cleared outside the U.S. Toraymyxn houses an immobilized
antibiotic agent with a high specificity to bind circulating endotoxin, a potent activator of sepsis resulting from gram-negative bacterial
infections. In North America, exclusive rights to Toraymyxin are licensed to Spectral Medical, who is conducting FDA approved studies
to treat sepsis.
The
Aethlon Hemopurifier is a clinical-stage therapeutic candidate in the United States. The Hemopurifier has been cleared to treat severe
COVID-19 infections through an FDA IDE supplement and was previously cleared under FDA Emergency-Use Authorization (EUA) to treat Ebola
virus. Immobilized within the Hemopurifier is an affinity lectin that has a high specificity to bind a broad-spectrum of viral pathogens
from the bloodstream.
The
Exthera Seraph-100 Microbind Affinity Filter is a clinical-stage therapeutic candidate in the United States and market cleared outside
the U.S. for the removal of bloodstream pathogens. The Seraph-100 was recently cleared and broadly deployed to treat severe COVID-19
infections under FDA Emergency-Use Authorization (EUA). The Seraph-100 incorporates heparin-coated polyethylene beads that bind both
viral and bacterial pathogens in the bloodstream.
While preclinical in vitro studies have quantified
the reduction of viral pathogens, bacterial toxins and inflammatory mediators from human blood plasma with small-scale
versions of Sigyn Therapy, there is no assurance that we will receive market clearance for our product or be able to establish
scalable manufacturing that would allow us to compete with these and other emerging therapies.
Government
Regulation May Cause Us Delays in Ability to Obtain Approval
Sigyn
Therapy is subject to regulation by numerous regulatory bodies, including the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and comparable
international regulatory agencies. These agencies will require that we comply with applicable laws and regulations governing the development,
testing, manufacturing, labeling, marketing, storage, distribution, advertising and promotion, and post-marketing surveillance of Sigyn
Therapy. As a medical device, the FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) will have primary jurisdiction over the
premarket development, review, and approval of Sigyn Therapy. Failure to comply with applicable requirements could subject us to a variety
of administrative sanctions, such as issuance of warning letters, import detentions, civil monetary penalties and/or judicial sanctions,
such as product seizures, injunctions, and criminal prosecution.
FDA’s
Pre-market Approval (PMA) Pathway May Take a Long Time for Approval of our Product
The
FDA is likely to classify our lead product candidate, Sigyn Therapy, as a significant risk Class III device, which would require extensive
pre-clinical and clinical studies to be conducted along with the submission of a Pre-Market Approval (PMA) application prior to market
clearance consideration by FDA. The commercialization of medical devices in the United States requires either a prior 510(k) clearance,
unless it is exempt, or a PMA from the FDA. Medical devices are classified into one of three classes; Class I, Class II or Class III
which are determined by the degree of risk associated with each medical device and the extent of control needed to provide reasonable
assurance of safety and effectiveness. A Class III device cannot be marketed in the United States unless the FDA approves the device
after submission of a PMA. We believe that Sigyn Therapy will be classified as a Class III device and as such will be subject to a PMA
submission and approval.
A
pre-market approval application must be supported by extensive data, including but not limited to technical, preclinical, clinical trials,
manufacturing and labelling to demonstrate to the FDA’s satisfaction reasonable evidence of safety and effectiveness of the device.
After
a pre-market approval application is submitted, the FDA has 45 days to determine whether the application is sufficiently complete to
permit a substantive review and thus whether the FDA will file the application for review. The FDA has 180 days to review a filed pre-market
approval application, although the review of an application generally occurs over a significantly longer period of time and can take
up to several years. During this review period, the FDA may request additional information or clarification of the information already
provided. Also, an advisory panel of experts from outside the FDA may be convened to review and evaluate the application and provide
recommendations to the FDA as to the approvability of the device.
Although
the FDA is not bound by the advisory panel decision, the panel’s recommendations are important to the FDA’s overall decision-making
process. In addition, the FDA may conduct a preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facility to ensure compliance with the Quality
System Regulation, or QSR. The agency also may inspect one or more clinical sites to assure compliance with FDA’s regulations.
Upon
completion of the PMA review, the FDA may: (i) approve the PMA which authorizes commercial marketing with specific prescribing information
for one or more indications, which can be more limited than those originally sought; (ii) issue an approvable letter which indicates
the FDA’s belief that the PMA is approvable and states what additional information the FDA requires, or the post-approval commitments
that must be agreed to prior to approval; (iii) issue a not approvable letter which outlines steps required for approval, but which are
typically more onerous than those in an approvable letter, and may require additional clinical trials that are often expensive and time
consuming and can delay approval for months or even years; or (iv) deny the application. If the FDA issues an approvable or not approvable
letter, the applicant has 180 days to respond, after which the FDA’s review clock is reset.
The
advancement of Sigyn Therapy will be reliant on substantial funding, of which there is no assurance that we will raise the capital resources
necessary to maintain the continuance of our operations and clinically advance Sigyn Therapy. Even if we obtain market clearance from
FDA to commercialize Sigyn Therapy, there is no assurance that we can successfully compete with other products in the marketplace. Additionally,
competitive technologies could emerge that are more effective in treating life-threatening indications targeted by Sigyn Therapy. Such
competitive products may be advanced by larger organizations that have substantially greater capital resources and marketing capabilities.
Furthermore, Sigyn Therapy may be deemed obsolete should emerging competitive technologies be commercialized prior to market clearance
of Sigyn Therapy. Since inception, our primary focus has been directed toward the advancement of Sigyn Therapy. As of September
30, 2022, we have an accumulated deficit of $6.3 million and a working capital deficit of $1.6 million.
Clinical
Trial Requirements Pose Risk to Obtaining Approval
Human
clinical trials are required to support pre-market approval. In the United States, human clinal studies require the submission of an
Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) to FDA. The IDE application must be supported by appropriate data, such as animal and laboratory
testing results, showing it is safe to test the device in humans and that the testing protocol is scientifically sound. At present, we
are preparing an IDE to submit to FDA. Prior to initiating human studies, our IDE will need to be approved in advance by the FDA for
a specific number of patients at specified study sites. During the trial, we must comply with the FDA’s IDE requirements for investigator
selection, trial monitoring, reporting and recordkeeping. Our clinical trial investigators must obtain patient informed consent, rigorously
follow the investigational plan and study protocol, control the disposition of investigational devices and comply with all reporting
and recordkeeping requirements. Clinical trials of Sigyn Therapy will not be allowed to begin until our IDE application has been approved
by the FDA and the appropriate institutional review boards, or IRBs, at the clinical trial sites. An IRB is an appropriately constituted
group that has been formally designated to review and monitor medical research involving subjects and which has the authority to approve,
require modifications in, or disapprove research to protect the rights, safety and welfare of human research subjects. The FDA or the
IRB at each site at which a clinical trial is being performed may withdraw approval of a clinical trial at any time for various reasons,
including a belief that the risks to study subjects outweigh the benefits or a failure to comply with FDA or IRB requirements. Even if
a trial is completed, the results of clinical testing may not demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of Sigyn Therapy or other product
candidates.
The
success of Sigyn Therapy and other product candidates will depend on several factors, which include:
●
the completion of clinical studies that demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our products; the receipt of market approval from
applicable regulatory authorities, and the completion of post-market studies that may be required by applicable regulatory
authorities;
●
the establishment of commercial manufacturing capabilities and launch of product marketing and commercial sales;
●
the acceptance of Sigyn Therapy or other product candidates by patients, the medical community and third-party payors;
●
obtaining and maintaining healthcare coverage and adequate reimbursement for Sigyn Therapy and other product candidates.
Many
of these factors may be beyond our control, including the time that will be required to complete clinical testing, the regulatory submission
process, and a change in the competitive landscape. It is possible that none of our product candidates will ever obtain regulatory approval,
even if we expend substantial time and resources seeking such approval. If we do not achieve one or more of these factors in a timely
manner or at all, we could experience significant delays or an inability to successfully complete clinical trials, obtain regulatory
approval or, if approved, commercialize our product candidates, which would materially harm our business, financial condition and the
results of our operations.
Our
Pre-clinical Outcomes May Not Be Predictive of Clinical Trial Success
The
results of our pre-clinical in vitro validations and animal studies may not be predictive of human clinical study outcomes. Historically,
therapeutic candidates that perform satisfactorily in pre-clinical and animal studies may nonetheless fail to obtain marketing approval.
If the results of our clinical studies are inconclusive or if there are safety concerns or adverse events associated with our product
candidates, we may:
●
be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidates, if approved at all;
●
obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as intended or desired;
●
be required to change the way our product is administered;
●be required to perform additional clinical studies to support approval or be subject to additional post-marketing testing requirements;
●
have regulatory authorities withdraw their approval of a product or impose restrictions on its distribution in the form of a modified
risk evaluation and mitigation strategy.
Additionally,
our product candidates could potentially cause adverse events that have not yet been predicted. The inclusion of ill patients in our
clinical studies may result in deaths or other adverse medical events due to other therapies or medications that such patients may be
using. As described above, any of these events could prevent us from achieving or maintaining market acceptance of our product candidates
and impair our ability to commercialize our products.
We
will depend on enrollment and retention of patients in our clinical trials for our product candidates. Delays or difficulties enrolling
or retaining patients in our clinical trials could adversely impact our business operations.
The
successful and timely completion of clinical trials will require that we enroll and retain a sufficient number of patient candidates.
Any clinical trials that we conduct could be subject to delays for a variety of reasons, including as a result of patient enrollment
taking longer than anticipated, patient withdrawal, or adverse events. These types of developments could cause us to delay a clinical
trial or halt further development. Patient enrollment depends on many factors, including:
●
the size and nature of the patient population;
● the
severity of the disease, condition or infection under investigation;
●
eligibility criteria for the trial;
●
the proximity of patients to clinical sites;
●
the design of the clinical protocol;
●
the ability to obtain and maintain patient consents;
●
perceived risks and benefits of the product candidate under evaluation;
●
the ability to recruit clinical trial investigators with the appropriate competencies and experience;
●
the risk that patients enrolled in clinical trials will drop out of the trials before the administration of our product candidates or
trial completion;
●
the availability of competing clinical trials;
●
the availability of candidate patients during pandemic outbreaks, such as COVID-19; and
●
the availability of new therapies that are approved for the indication the clinical trial is investigating.
These
factors may make it difficult for us to enroll enough patients to complete our clinical trials in a timely and cost-effective manner.
Delays in the completion of our clinical trials may jeopardize our ability to commence product sales and generate revenue. Additionally,
factors that delay the commencement or completion of clinical trials may establish a basis for FDA to deny the approval of our therapeutic
candidates.
Risks
Related to our Business and Industry
We
are dependent on our Chief Executive Officer.
We
are dependent on our Chief Executive Officer, James A. Joyce, who is integral to our business operations and the development of
our product candidates. The loss of Mr. Joyce’s services could have a material adverse effect on our business operations.
We
have a limited number of employees.
We
are a small organization that maintains a staff of five employees. The departure of any employee could have a material adverse
effect on our business operations.
We
may be adversely affected by current and future pandemic outbreaks.
The
current COVID-19 (“COVID-19”) outbreak and the emergence of future pandemics could have a deleterious impact on our business
operations. As demonstrated by COVID-19, pandemic outbreaks can significantly delay or interrupt crucial business operations. Pandemic
outbreaks may also reduce the availability of human resources or critical supplies that will be required to carry out our clinical and
manufacturing programs. Additionally, stay-at-home and other pandemic outbreak policies could restrict critical personnel from conducting
the core activities necessary to advance Sigyn Therapy and other potential product candidates.
Economic
uncertainty may adversely affect our access to capital, cost of capital and ability to execute our business plan as scheduled.
Generally,
worldwide economic conditions remain uncertain. Access to capital markets is critical to our ability to operate. Traditionally, medical
technology companies have funded their research and development expenditures through raising capital in the equity markets. Declines
and uncertainties in these markets in the past have severely restricted raising new capital and have affected companies’ ability
to continue to expand or fund clinical development efforts. There is no certainty that the capital markets will be conducive to raising
capital on favorable terms. If economic conditions become worse, our future cost of equity or debt capital and access to the capital
markets could be adversely affected. In addition, if we are unable to access the capital markets on favorable terms, our ability to execute
our clinical progression plan would be compromised. Moreover, we rely and intend to rely on third-party vendors, including clinical research
organizations, contract manufacturing organizations and consultants. Global economic conditions may result in a disruption or delay in
the performance of our third-party contractors and suppliers. If such third parties are unable to adequately satisfy their contractual
commitments to us in a timely manner, our business could be adversely affected.
Our
reliance on third-party vendors heightens the risks faced by our business.
We
rely on third-party vendors for certain key aspects of our business, including support for information technology systems and certain
human resource functions. We do not control these partners, but we depend on them in ways that may be significant to us. If these parties
fail to meet our expectations or fulfill their obligations to us, we may fail to receive the expected benefits. In addition, if any of
these third parties fails to comply with applicable laws and regulations in the course of its performance of services for us, there is
a risk that we may be held responsible for such violations as well, which could adversely affect our business, reputation, financial
condition or results of operations.
We
rely on third party organizations to conduct our pre-clinical testing, research and clinical trials.
We
rely on third-party organizations to conduct preclinical studies, and we expect to continue to rely on third parties, such as contract
research organizations (“CROs”), contract manufacturers of clinical supplies, clinical data management organizations, medical institutions
and clinical investigators, to conduct our clinical trials and to conduct some aspects of our research and pre-clinical testing. These
third parties may terminate their engagements with us at any time. If these third parties do not successfully carry out their duties,
meet expected deadlines or conduct our studies in accordance with regulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able
to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for our product candidates and will not be able to, or may be delayed
in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidates. Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with
other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If we are required to enter into alternative arrangements, it could delay our product
development activities.
Upon
commercialization of our products, we may be dependent on third parties to market, distribute and sell our products.
Our
ability to generate revenues may be dependent upon the sales and marketing efforts of any future co-marketing partners and third-party
distributors. At this time, we have not entered into an agreement with any commercialization partner and only plan to do so prior to
commercialization. If we fail to reach an agreement with any commercialization partner, or upon reaching such an agreement that partner
fails to sell a large volume of our products, it may have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We
will be dependent on third parties for the manufacture of our product candidates. If we experience problems with any of these third parties,
they could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidates or our ability to sell any approved products.
We
do not have any manufacturing facilities. We expect to rely on third-party manufacturers for the manufacture of our product candidates
for clinical trials and for commercial supply of any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval.
We
may be unable to establish agreements with third-party manufacturers for clinical or commercial supply on terms favorable to us, or at
all. Even if we are able to establish agreements with third-party manufacturers, reliance on third-party manufacturers entails additional
risks, including:
| ● | reliance
on the third party for regulatory compliance and quality assurance; |
| | |
| ● | the
possible breach of the manufacturing agreement by the third party, including the inability
to supply sufficient quantities or to meet quality standards or timelines; and |
| | |
| ● | the
possible termination or nonrenewal of the agreement by the third party at a time that is
costly or inconvenient for us. |
Third-party
manufacturers may not be able to comply with U.S. Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs) or similar regulatory
requirements outside the United States. Our failure, or the failure of our third-party manufacturers, to comply with cGMPs or other
applicable regulations, even if such failures do not relate specifically to our product candidates or approved products, could
result in sanctions being imposed on us or the manufacturers, including fines, injunctions, civil penalties, delays, suspension or
withdrawal of approvals, license revocation, seizures or recalls of product candidates, operating restrictions and criminal
prosecutions, any of which could adversely affect supplies of our product candidates and harm our business and results of
operations.
Any
product that we develop may compete with other product candidates and products for access to these manufacturing facilities. There are
a limited number of manufacturers that operate under cGMPs and that might be capable of manufacturing for us.
Any
performance failure on the part of our manufacturers, including a failure that may not relate specifically to our product candidates
or approved products, could delay clinical development or marketing approval or adversely impact our ability to generate commercial sales.
If our contract manufacturers cannot perform as agreed, we may be required to replace that manufacturer.
Our
anticipated future dependence upon others for the manufacture of our current and future product candidates or products may adversely
affect our future profit margins and our ability to commercialize any product candidates that receive marketing approval on a timely
and competitive basis.
Our
business could be adversely affected by reliance on sole suppliers.
Notwithstanding
our current multiple supplier approach, certain essential product components may be supplied in the future by sole, or a limited group
of, suppliers. Most of our products and components are purchased through purchase orders rather than through long term supply agreements
and large volumes of inventory may not be maintained. There may be shortages and delays in obtaining certain product components. Disruption
of the supply or inventory of components could result in a significant increase in the costs of these components or could result in an
inability to meet the demand for our products. In addition, if a change in the manufacturer of a key component is required, qualification
of a new supplier may result in delays and additional expenses in meeting customer demand for products. These factors could adversely
affect our revenues and ability to retain our experienced sales force.
Changes
in financial accounting standards or practices may cause adverse, unexpected financial reporting fluctuations and affect our reported
results of operations.
We
are required to prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America (“GAAP”), which is periodically revised and/or expanded. From time to time, we are required to adopt new or revised
accounting standards issued by recognized authoritative bodies, including the FASB and the SEC. It is possible that future accounting
standards we are required to adopt may require additional changes to the current accounting treatment that we apply to our financial
statements and may require us to make significant changes to our reporting systems. Such changes could result in a material adverse impact
on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We
have a limited operating history, which may make it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects.
We
face the risks associated with businesses in their early stages, with limited operating histories and whose prospects are hard to evaluate.
Any evaluation of our business and our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, delays, difficulties and expenses
commonly experienced by companies at this stage, which generally include unanticipated problems and additional costs relating to the
development and testing of products, product approval or clearance, regulatory compliance, production, product introduction and marketing,
and competition. Many of these factors are beyond the control of our management. In addition, our performance will be subject to other
factors beyond our control, including general economic conditions and conditions in the healthcare industry.
Market
acceptance of Sigyn Therapy and other product candidates will be vital to our future success.
The
commercial success of our products is dependent upon their acceptance by the intended markets. Our product candidates may not gain or
maintain any significant degree of market acceptance among consumers, surgeons or healthcare providers, or acceptance by third-party
payors, such as health insurance companies, Medicaid and Medicare. We cannot be certain that our products will be used by the medical
community, even upon market approval of our product candidates.
Market
acceptance will be dependent on numerous factors, many of which are not under our control, including:
|
● |
the
safety and efficacy of our products and product candidates, as demonstrated in clinical trials and after commercialization; |
|
● |
favorable
regulatory approval and product labeling; |
|
● |
the
ease of use of our product and any related instrumentation that accompany our product; |
|
● |
our
ability to educate and train doctors on the advantages of our product; |
|
● |
the
price of any approved product relative to alternative technologies; and |
|
● |
the
availability of third-party reimbursement. |
If
our products and product candidates do not achieve significant market acceptance, our potential for revenues and profitability would
be adversely affected.
Our
employees, independent contractors, principal investigators, consultants, vendors and clinical research organizations, or CROs,
could engage in misconduct or other improper activities, including noncompliance with regulatory standards and requirements.
We
are exposed to the risk that our employees, independent contractors, principal investigators, consultants, vendors and CROs may engage
in fraudulent or other illegal activity. Misconduct by these persons could include intentional, reckless or negligent conduct or unauthorized
activity that violates laws or regulations, including those laws requiring the reporting of true, complete and accurate information
to the FDA or foreign regulatory authorities; manufacturing standards; federal, state and foreign healthcare fraud and abuse laws and
data privacy; or laws that require the true, complete and accurate reporting of financial information or data. In particular, sales,
marketing and other business arrangements in the healthcare industry are subject to extensive laws intended to prevent fraud, kickbacks,
self-dealing and other abusive practices. These laws may restrict or prohibit a wide range of business activities, including research,
manufacturing, distribution, pricing, discounting, marketing and promotion, sales commission, customer incentive programs and other business
arrangements. Activities subject to these laws also involve the improper use of information obtained in the course of clinical trials,
which could result in regulatory sanctions or other actions stemming from a failure to comply with such laws or regulations, and serious
harm to our reputation. In addition, federal procurement laws impose substantial penalties for misconduct in connection with government
contracts and require certain contractors to maintain a code of business ethics and conduct. If any such actions are instituted against
us, we may have to terminate employees or others involved and the impact of such termination can result in our experiencing delays and
additional costs associated with replacing the services being provided. If we are not successful in defending ourselves or asserting
our rights, those actions could have a significant impact on our business, including the imposition of civil, criminal and administrative
penalties, damages, monetary fines, possible exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs,
FDA debarment, contractual damages, reputational harm, diminished profits and future earnings, and curtailment of our operations, any
of which could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our operating results.
U.S.
legislative or FDA regulatory reforms may make it more difficult and costly for us to obtain regulatory approval of future product candidates
and to manufacture, market and distribute our products after approval is obtained.
From
time to time, legislation is drafted and introduced in Congress that could significantly change the statutory provisions governing the
regulatory approval, manufacture and marketing of regulated products or the reimbursement thereof. In addition, FDA regulations and guidance
are often revised or reinterpreted by the FDA in ways that may significantly affect our business and our products. Any new regulations
or revisions or reinterpretations of existing regulations may impose additional costs or lengthen review times of future products. In
addition, FDA regulations and guidance are often revised or reinterpreted by the agency in ways that may significantly affect our business
and our products. It is impossible to predict whether legislative changes will be enacted or FDA regulations, guidance or interpretations
changed, and what the impact of such changes, if any, may be.
Information
Technology Risks
Our
internal information technology (IT) systems could be compromised, damaged, breached or destroyed. IT risks include hardware and software
failure, human error, spam, viruses, malicious attacks, industrial espionage, as well as natural disasters such as fires, earthquakes,
hurricanes or floods. IT system failures may affect our ability to run our operations. Operational impact of IT failures or breaches
may result in loss of productivity and a reduced ability to advance our clinical programs. Failures or breaches of our IT systems could
also result in the loss or corruption of confidential data or in the theft of data or critical information.
Additionally,
the increased sophistication and activities of perpetrators of cyber-attacks have resulted in an increase in information security risks
in recent years. Hackers develop and deploy viruses, worms, and other malicious software programs that attack products and services and
gain access to networks and data centers. If we experience difficulties maintaining existing systems or implementing new systems, we
could incur significant losses due to disruptions in our operations. Additionally, these systems may contain valuable proprietary and
confidential information and may contain personal data of employees, third-party vendors, and collaborators. A security breach could
result in disruptions of our internal systems and business applications, harm to our competitive position from the compromise of confidential
business information, or subject us to liability under laws that protect personal data. As cyber threats continue to evolve, we may be
required to expend additional resources to continue to enhance our information security measures and/or to investigate and remediate
any information security vulnerabilities. Any of these consequences could adversely affect business.
Risk
Factors Related to Our Common Stock
The
price of our common stock may be volatile, and a shareholder’s investment in our common stock could suffer a decline in value.
There
has been significant volatility in the volume and market price of our common stock, and such volatility may continue in the future. In
addition, factors such as quarterly variations in our operating results, actions by governmental agencies, national economic and stock
market considerations as well as other events and circumstances beyond our control, including the effects of pandemic outbreaks, could
have a significant impact on the future market price of our common stock and the relative volatility of such market price.
A
prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in
our ability to raise capital. If we are unable to raise the funds required for all of our planned operations and key initiatives, we
may be forced to allocate funds from other planned uses, which may negatively impact our business and operations, including our ability
to develop new products and continue our current operations.
Our
common stock is currently traded on the OTCQB® Venture Market, which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and
liquidity.
While
we plan to submit an application to list our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, our stock currently trades
on the OTCQB® Venture Market. The OTCQB® Venture Market is significantly more limited market than the national
securities exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange, or Nasdaq stock exchange, and there are lower financial or qualitative standards
that a company must meet to have its stock traded on the OTCQB® Venture Market. OTCQB® Venture Market is an inter-dealer
quotation system much less regulated than the major exchanges, and trading in our common stock may be subject to abuses, volatility and
shorting, which may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our
common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted
rules that require a broker-dealer to have reasonable grounds for believing an investment is suitable for that customer when recommending
an investment to a customer. FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable
for some customers and may make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may
result in a limited ability to buy and sell our stock. Consummation of this offering is contingent upon our common stock being accepted
for listing on Nasdaq.
Our
common shares are currently subject to the “Penny Stock” rules of the SEC, and the trading market in our securities will
likely be limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.
The
Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes
relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00
per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
|
● |
That
a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and |
|
● |
The
broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quality of the
penny stock to be purchased. |
In
order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
|
● |
Obtain
financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and |
|
● |
Make
a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge
and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. |
The
broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating
to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
|
● |
Sets
forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and |
|
● |
That
the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. |
Generally,
brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more
difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
Disclosure
also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commission’s
payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies
available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent
price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
We
do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our shares of common stock in the near future, so our shareholders will not be able to receive
a return on their shares unless they sell their shares.
We
do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. There is no assurance that future dividends
will be paid, and if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend. Unless we pay dividends,
our shareholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell such shares.
Raising
additional capital may cause dilution to our existing stockholders and investors in this offering, restrict our operations or require
us to relinquish rights to our product candidates on unfavorable terms to us.
We
may seek additional capital through a variety of means, including through private and public equity offerings and debt financings, collaborations,
strategic alliances and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the
sale of equity or convertible debt securities, or through the issuance of shares under other types of contracts, or upon the exercise
or conversion of outstanding options, warrants, convertible debt or other similar securities, the ownership interests of our stockholders
will be diluted, and the terms of such financings may include liquidation or other preferences, antidilution rights, conversion and exercise
price adjustments and other provisions that adversely affect the rights of our stockholders, including rights, preferences and privileges
that are senior to those of our holders of common stock in terms of the payment of dividends or in the event of a liquidation. In addition,
debt financing, if available, could include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take certain actions, such as incurring
additional debt, making capital expenditures, entering into licensing arrangements, or declaring dividends and may require us to grant
security interests in our assets. If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances, or marketing, distribution
or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams,
product or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds
through equity or debt financings when needed, we may need to curtail or cease our operations.
There is no established market for the Series
B Preferred Stock or Series A Warrants being offered in this offering.
There is no established trading market for the
Series B Preferred Stock or Series A Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for the
listing of the Series B Preferred Stock or Series A Warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without an
active trading market, the liquidity of the Series B Preferred Stock or Warrants will be limited.
Holders of Series B Preferred Stock will
have limited voting rights.
Except with respect to certain material changes
in the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock and certain other matters and except as may be required by Delaware law, holders of Series
B Preferred Stock will have no voting rights. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock will have no right to vote for any members of our board
of directors.
The Series A Warrants are speculative.
The Series A Warrants offered in this offering
do not confer any rights of common stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather
merely represent the right to acquire shares of our common stock at a fixed price for a limited period of time. Specifically, commencing
on the date of issuance, holders of the Series A Warrants may exercise their right to acquire the common stock and pay an exercise price
of $____ per share (110% of the public offering price of our Class A Units in this offering), prior to five years from the date of issuance,
after which date any unexercised warrants will expire and have no further value. Moreover, following this offering, the market value
of the Series A Warrants is uncertain and there can be no assurance that the market value of the Series A Warrants will equal or exceed
their public offering price. There can be no assurance that the market price of the common stock will ever equal or exceed the exercise
price of the Series A Warrants, and consequently, whether it will ever be profitable for holders of the warrants to exercise the Series
A Warrants.
The Series A Warrants may not have any
value and if an active, liquid trading market for the Series A Warrants does not develop, you may not be able to sell your warrants quickly
or at or above the price you paid for them.
The Series A Warrants issued in this offering
will be immediately exercisable and expire five years after their issuance. The Series A Warrants will have an initial exercise price
equal to $ . In the event that our common stock price does not exceed
the exercise price of the warrants during the period when the warrants are exercisable, the warrants may not have any value.
Prior to this offering, there has been no public
market for any of our warrants and we do not intend to list the Series A Warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other exchange.
As a result, an active trading market may not develop for the Series A Warrants to be sold in this offering or, if developed, may not
be sustained, and the market for the Series A Warrants may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance.
The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell your Series A Warrants at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that
you consider reasonable.
The exercise price of the Series A Warrants
offered by this prospectus will not be adjusted for certain dilutive events.
The exercise price of the Series A Warrants offered
by this prospectus are subject to adjustment for certain events, including, but not limited to, the payment of a stock dividend, stock
splits, certain issuances of capital stock, options, convertible securities and other securities. However, the exercise prices will not
be adjusted for dilutive issuances of securities and there may be transactions or occurrences that may adversely affect the market price
of our common stock or the market value of such warrants without resulting in an adjustment of the exercise prices of such warrants.
There
is no assurance that we will fulfill or maintain the listing requirements of the NASDAQ.
We
are applying to list our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, a national securities exchange. An approval of our listing application
by NASDAQ will be subject to, among other things, our ability to fulfill all of the listing requirements of NASDAQ. There is no assurance
that our securities will become NASDAQ listed and even if our shares become NASDAQ listed, there is no assurance that an active trading
market for our securities will develop or be sustained. If our common stock is not accepted for listing on NASDAQ, we will not proceed
with the consummation of this offering.
In
addition, NASDAQ has rules for continued listing, including, without limitation, minimum market capitalization and other requirements.
Failure to maintain our listing, or de-listing from NASDAQ, would make it more difficult for shareholders to dispose of our securities
and more difficult to obtain accurate price quotations on our securities. This could have an adverse effect on the price of our common
shares. Our ability to issue additional securities for financing or other purposes, or otherwise to arrange for any financing we may
need in the future, may also be materially and adversely affected if our common shares and/or other securities are not traded on a national
securities exchange.
If
we are unable to meet the NASDAQ listing criteria, our common shares may continue to trade on the OTC Pink Sheets.
We are applying for our common stock to be listed
on NASDAQ, a national securities exchange. The NASDAQ requires companies desiring to list their common stock to meet certain listing
criteria including total number of shareholders: minimum stock price (which will necessitate that we effect a reverse split of our issued
and outstanding common stock before listing), total value of public float, and in some cases total shareholders’ equity and market
capitalization. Our failure to meet such applicable listing criteria could prevent us from listing our common stock on NASDAQ, and
if we do not list on NASDAQ, we will not proceed with this offering. In the event we are unable to have our shares traded on NASDAQ,
our common stock may continue to trade on the OTC Pink Sheets, which is less liquid and more volatile than the NASDAQ. Our failure to
have our shares traded on NASDAQ could make it more difficult for you to trade our shares, could prevent our common stock trading on
a frequent and liquid basis and could result in the value of our common stock being less than it would be if we were able to list our
shares on NASDAQ.
Our Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware is the sole and exclusive forum for substantially all disputes
between us and our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes
with us or our directors, officers or employees.
Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation,
or our Certificate of Incorporation, provides that, unless our Board of Directors consents to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery
in the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought by or on our behalf;
(ii) any direct action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors or officers pursuant to any of the provisions of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or our Certificate of Incorporation; (iii) any action
asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duties owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees to our stockholders; or (iv)
any action asserting a violation of Delaware decisional law relating to our internal affairs. This provision does not apply to (a) actions
in which the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware concludes that an indispensable party is not subject to the jurisdiction of Delaware
courts, or (b) actions in which a federal court has assumed exclusive jurisdiction to a proceeding. This choice of forum provision
is not intended to apply to any actions brought under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, or the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all
suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the
exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim
for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. There is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this provision
with respect to claims under the Securities Act. However, our Certificate of Incorporation does not relieve us of our duties to comply
with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder, and our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance
with these laws, rules and regulations. Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise
acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of and consented to this choice of forum provision.
This choice of forum provision may impose additional
litigation costs on stockholders in pursuing such claims, particularly if the stockholders do not reside in or near the State of Delaware.
Additionally, this choice of forum provision may limit our stockholders’ ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that they
find favorable for disputes, which may discourage the filing of such lawsuits.
We
will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds to us from this offering and may not use them effectively.
We
will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds to us from this offering, including for any of the purposes described
in the section titled “Use of Proceeds,” and you will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess
whether the net proceeds are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of
the net proceeds from this offering, our ultimate use may vary substantially from our currently intended use. Investors will need to
rely upon the judgment of our management with respect to the use of proceeds. Pending use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering
in investment-grade, interest-bearing securities, such as money market accounts, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and guaranteed
obligations of the U.S. government that may not generate a high yield for our stockholders. If we do not use the net proceeds that we
receive in this offering effectively, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be harmed, and the
market price of our common stock could decline.
We
are an “emerging growth company,” and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable
to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We
are an “emerging-growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we have elected to take advantage of certain exemptions
from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,”
including the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or Section 404, reduced disclosure obligations
regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding
advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Pursuant to
Section 107 of the JOBS Act, as an emerging growth company, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with
new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. As a result, our financial statements
will not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised
accounting standards that are applicable to public companies, which may make our common stock less attractive to investors. In addition,
if we cease to be an emerging growth company, we will no longer be able to use the extended transition period for complying with new
or revised accounting standards.
We
will remain an emerging-growth company until the earliest of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of
this offering; (2) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenue is $1.235 billion or more; (3) the
date on which we have, during the previous rolling three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities;
and (4) the date we qualify as a “large accelerated filer,” with at least $700 million of equity securities held by non-affiliates.
We
cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive as a result of choosing to rely on these exemptions. For example,
if we do not adopt a new or revised accounting standard, our future results of operations will not be as comparable to the results of
operations of certain other companies in our industry that adopted such standards. If some investors find our common stock less attractive
as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock, and our stock price may be more volatile.

This
prospectus contains estimates, projections and other information concerning our industry, our business, and the markets for our products.
Information that is based on estimates, forecasts, projections, market research or similar methodologies is inherently subject to uncertainties,
and actual events or circumstances may differ materially from events and circumstances that are assumed in this information. Unless otherwise
expressly stated, we obtained this industry, business, market and other data from our own internal estimates and research as well as
from reports, research surveys, studies and similar data prepared by market research firms and other third parties, industry, medical
and general publications, government data and similar sources.
In
addition, assumptions and estimates of our and our industry’s future performance are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty

future performance to differ materially from our assumptions and estimates.
USE
OF PROCEEDS
We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of
_____Class A Units (assuming no purchase of Class B Units) will be approximately $____ million, or approximately $____
million if the underwriter exercises in full its option to purchase additional shares of our common stock and/or Series A Warrants,
based on an assumed public offering price of $ per Class A Unit, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions
and estimated offering expenses payable by us. Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $____ per Class
A Units would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $___ million, or approximately $___
million if the underwriter exercises its over-allotment option in full, assuming the number of Class A Units offered by us, as
set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remain the same and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions
and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
The
expected use of net proceeds of this offering represents our current intentions based upon our present plan and business conditions.
As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon
the completion of this offering. The amounts and timing of our actual use of net proceeds will vary depending on numerous factors. As
a result, management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and investors will be relying on our judgment
regarding the application of the net proceeds of this offering. We currently estimate that we will use the net proceeds from this offering
as follows: ______________________ We have presumed that we will receive aggregate gross proceeds of $____ million and deducted $___
million payable in offering costs, commissions and fees.
We
intend to use the net proceeds from this offering as follows:
● |
Approximately
34% to fund research and the continued development of Sigyn Therapy; and |
|
|
● |
Approximately
66% for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the additional costs with being a public company. |
Based
on our current business plans, we believe that the net proceeds of this offering, together with our existing cash and cash equivalents
will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for approximately the next two years from the date
of this prospectus.
We
believe the net proceeds will enable us to complete the first-in-human feasibility study of Sigyn Therapy in End-Stage Renal Disease
patients suffering from excel inflammation and/or endotoxemia in additional to pursing additional product advancements. In addition,
we will begin development and testing of ChemoPrepTM and ChemoPure TM with a primary objective to enhance tumor
site delivery of chemotherapy and reduce its toxicity and secondary objective to reduce treatment dosing without sacrificing patient
benefit. The company does not intend to discharge any indebtedness with the proceeds of the transaction.
This
expected use of proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon current plans and business conditions. As of the date
of this prospectus, we cannot predict with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon the completion
of this offering or the amounts that we will actually spend on the uses set forth above.
The
amount and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including the results of our research and development,
the anticipated growth out our business and any unforeseen cash needs. As a result, our management will have broad discretion over the
use of proceeds from this offering.
The
use of the proceeds represents management’s estimates based upon current business and economic conditions. We reserve the right
to use of the net proceeds we receive in the offering in any manner we consider to be appropriate. Although our Company does not contemplate
changes in the proposed use of proceeds, to the extent we find that adjustment is required for other uses by reason of existing business
conditions, the use of proceeds may be adjusted. The actual use of the proceeds of this offering could differ materially from those outlined
above as a result of several factors including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.
DETERMINATION
OF OFFERING PRICE

the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq prior to the pricing of the offering, we will not be able to consummate and will terminate
this offering.
DIVIDEND
POLICY
We
have never paid any cash dividends on our common shares. We anticipate that we will retain funds and future earnings to support operations
and to finance the growth and development of our business. Therefore, we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future
following this offering. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend
on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant.
In addition, the terms of any future debt or credit financings may preclude us from paying dividends.

Unless
specifically stated otherwise, all information in this prospectus assumes:
|
● |
assumes no exercise by the
underwriters of their option to purchase up to additional shares of our common stock and/or Series A Warrants from us to cover
over-allotments, if any; |
|
● |
assumes no exercise of the
representative’s warrants or Series A Warrants to be issued upon consummation of this offering at an exercise price equal
to 110% of the initial offering price of the common stock; |
|
● |
assumes no shares of Series B Preferred Stock are sold in this offering; |
|
● |
assumes
no exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $[__]; and |
|
● |
excludes shares of common stock to be reserved for future issuance
under our equity incentive plan, which will be effective upon the completion of this offering. |
To the extent we sell any Class B Units in this
offering, the same aggregate number of common stock equivalents resulting from this offering would be convertible under the Series B
Preferred Stock issued as part of the Class B Units.
(1) |
A
$1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed public offering price per Class A Units would increase or decrease our pro forma
as adjusted cash and cash equivalents, additional paid-in capital, total shareholders’ equity and total capitalization by approximately
$___ million assuming the number of Class A Units offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains
the same and after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us. |
DILUTION
If
you invest in our shares in this offering, your ownership interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the initial
public offering price per common share of in this offering and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share immediately after this
offering. We calculate net tangible book value per share by dividing our net tangible book value, which is tangible assets less total
liabilities less debt discounts, by the number of our outstanding common shares as of December 31, 2022. Our historical net tangible
book value (deficit) as of December 31, 2022, was approximately $_____ million or $______ per common share.
After
giving effect to the sale of a _____ Class A Units at an assumed shares at $ per share (and assuming no sale of Class B Units), after
deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering costs payable by us, our as adjusted net tangible book value
(deficit) as of December 31, 2022, would have been approximately $ million, or per common share. This represents an immediate
increase in as adjusted net tangible book value of $ per share to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of $ per share to investors
purchasing our common shares in this offering at the assumed public offering price.
The
following table illustrates per share dilution as of December 31, 2022:
Assumed public offering price per common share | |
| | | |
$ | - | |
Net tangible book value (deficit) per share as of December 31, 2022 | |

Each
$1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price per Class A Unit would increase (decrease) our as adjusted net
tangible book value (deficit) after this offering by approximately $___ million, or approximately $____ per share, and the dilution per
share to new investors by approximately $____ per share, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover
page of this prospectus, remain the same and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering
expenses payable by us. We may also increase or decrease the number of Class A Units we are offering. An increase of 500,000 Class
A Units in the number of Class A Units offered by us would increase our as adjusted net tangible book value (deficit) after
this offering by approximately $____, or $____ per common share, and decrease the dilution per share to new investors by $____ per common
share, assuming that the assumed initial public offering price remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts
and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. Similarly, a decrease of 500,000 Class A Units offered by us would
decrease our as adjusted net tangible book value (deficit) after this offering by approximately $___ million, or $____ per common share,
and increase the dilution per share to new investors by $____ per common share, assuming that the assumed initial public offering price
remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by
us. The information discussed above is illustrative only and will adjust based on the actual initial public offering price and other
terms of this offering determined at pricing. This table does not take into account further dilution to new investors that could occur
upon the exercise of outstanding options and warrants having a per share exercise price less than the public offering price per share
in this offering.
If
the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase up to ____ additional shares of common stock and Series A Warrants
at the assumed initial public offering price of $____ per share, the as adjusted net tangible book value (deficit) after this offering
would be $____ per share, representing an increase in net tangible book value (deficit) of $____ per share to existing shareholders and
immediate dilution in net tangible book value (deficit) of $____ per share to investors purchasing our common shares in this offering
at the assumed public offering price.
MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FISCAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
You
should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our consolidated
financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this filing. This discussion and other parts of this filing contain forward-looking
statements that involve risk and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations, intentions, and beliefs. Our
actual results may differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including
those set forth under “Risk Factors” and in other parts of this filing, and you should not place undue certain on these forward-looking

Startups Act, we may take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying
with new or revised accounting standards, meaning that we can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards
would otherwise apply to private companies. We have chosen to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new
or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies to delay adoption of such standards until such standards are made applicable
to private companies. Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public
companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

Impairment
of Inventory
Based
on the significant advancement of Sigyn Therapy, the Company decided in the 4th quarter of 2021 to assess the value of retail
business operations that were a focus of the Company prior to the merger transaction consummated on October 19, 2020.
Related
to this assessment, management determined the wholesale liquidation value of its sapphire gem inventory to be 5-10% of the previously
reported retail value, based on communications with certified gemologists, the variance between retail and wholesale valuations, and
current market conditions. As a result, the Company has valued the inventory at $50,000 and recorded an impairment of assets of $536,047
in the year ended December 31, 2021 and is classified in other expenses in the consolidated Statements of Operations.
Limited
Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There
is limited historical financial information about us on which to base an evaluation of our performance. We cannot guarantee we will be
successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including
limited capital resources, and possible cost overruns due to increases in the cost of services. To become profitable and competitive,
we must receive additional capital. We have no assurance that future financing will materialize. If that financing is not available,
we may be unable to continue operations.

General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs and professional fees required to support our operations and growth.
Depending
on the extent of our future growth, we may experience significant strain on our management, personnel, and information systems. We will
need to implement and improve operational, financial, and management information systems. In addition, we are implementing new information
systems that will provide better record-keeping, customer service and billing. However, there can be no assurance that our management
resources or information systems will be sufficient to manage any future growth in our business, and the failure to do so could have
a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Reclassifications
An
adjustment has been made to the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2021, to reclass $1,072 of other current liabilities previously
classified in accrued payroll and payroll taxes. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

Net
loss before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2022 totaled $2,929,817 primarily due to (increases/decreases) in compensation
costs, professional fees, consulting costs, research and development costs, investor relations costs, insurance costs, and general and
administration costs compared to a loss of $3,004,619 primarily due to (increases/decreases) in compensation costs, professional fees,
consulting costs, research and development costs, investor relations costs, and general and administration cost for the year ended December
31, 2021 primarily due to professional fees.
Assets
and Liabilities
Assets
were $332,879 as of December 31, 2022. Assets consisted primarily of cash of $8,356, inventories of $50,000, other current assets of
$11,942, equipment of $22,052, intangible assets of $2,100, and operating lease right-of-use assets of $217,718, and other assets of
$20,711. Liabilities were $2,236,119 as of December 31, 2022. Liabilities consisted primarily of accounts payable of $327,517, accrued
payroll and payroll taxes of $30,124, convertible notes of $1,636,656, net of $642,660 of unamortized debt discount, operating lease
liabilities of $240,625, and other current liabilities of $1,197.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among
other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated
deficit of $7,195,576 at December 31, 2022, had a working capital deficit of approximately $1,978,396 at December 31, 2022, had net losses
of $2,929,817 and $3,004,619 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and net cash used in operating activities
of $1,830,242 and $1,774,182 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with no revenue earned since inception, and
a lack of operational history. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
While
the Company is attempting to expand operations and increase revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be significant enough
to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public offering or an asset
sale transaction. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues
provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While management believes in the viability of its strategy to
generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds or transact an asset sale, there can be no assurances to that effect or
on terms acceptable to the Company. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability
to further implement its business plan and generate revenues.
The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
General
– Overall, we had a decrease in cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 of $332,600 resulting from cash used in

reconcile net profit from depreciation expense of $6,854, amortization expense of $3,600, accretion of original issuance costs of $135,812,
and the accretion of debt discount of $646,302.
Net
cash used in operations was primarily due to a net loss of $3,004,619 for year ended December 31, 2021 and the changes in operating assets
and liabilities of $34,149, primarily due to the increases in other current assets of $2,075 and other assets of $20,711, and a decrease
in accrued payroll and payroll taxes of $58,635, offset primarily by increases in accounts payable of $23,669 and other current liabilities
of $23,603. In addition, net cash used in operating activities includes adjustments to reconcile net profit from depreciation expense
of $2,946, amortization expense of $16,205, accretion of original issuance costs of $61,283, accretion of debt discount of $368,205,
stock issued for services of $249,100, interest expense converted to notes payable of $30,800, and impairment of assets of $536,047.
Cash
Flows from Investing Activities – For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in investing was $860 due to the
purchase of property and equipment compared to cash flows from investing activities of $29,264 due to the purchase of property and equipment
for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Cash
Flows from Financing Activities – For the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing was $1,498,502 due
to proceeds from short term convertible notes of $1,567,000 net of fees associated with the filing of the Company’s Form S-1 of
$68,498. For the year ended December 31, 2021, net cash provided by financing was $2,060,000 due to proceeds from short term convertible
notes of $250,000, repayments of short-term convertible notes of $55,000, and common stock and warrants issued for cash of $1,865,000.
Financing
– We expect that our current working capital position, together with our expected future cash flows from operations will
be insufficient to fund our operations in the ordinary course of business, anticipated capital expenditures, debt payment requirements
and other contractual obligations for at least the next twelve months. However, this belief is based upon many assumptions and is subject
to numerous risks, and there can be no assurance that we will not require additional funding in the future.
We
have no present agreements or commitments with respect to any material acquisitions of other businesses, products, product rights or
technologies or any other material capital expenditures. However, we will continue to evaluate acquisitions of and/or investments in
products, technologies, capital equipment or improvements or companies that complement our business and may make such acquisitions and/or
investments in the future. Accordingly, we may need to obtain additional sources of capital in the future to finance any such acquisitions
and/or investments. We may not be able to obtain such financing on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Due to the ongoing global
economic crisis, we believe it may be difficult to obtain additional financing if needed. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing,
it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our shareholders,
in the case of equity financing.

do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations.
Limited
Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There
is limited historical financial information about us on which to base an evaluation of our performance. We cannot guarantee we will be
successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including
limited capital resources, and possible cost overruns due to increases in the cost of services. To become profitable and competitive,
we must receive additional capital. We have no assurance that future financing will materialize. If that financing is not available,
we may be unable to continue operations.
Business
Overview
Sigyn
Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sigyn” or the “Company”) is a development-stage medical technology company headquartered
in San Diego, California. We are focused on creating therapeutic solutions that address unmet needs in global health.
We
are developing Sigyn Therapy™ as a
candidate to treat life-threatening infections and inflammatory disorders for which effective drug therapies are not available.
We designed Sigyn Therapy to reduce the circulating presence of pathogen sources of life-threatening inflammation in concert with
dampening down the dysregulated overproduction of inflammatory cytokines (the cytokine storm), which plays a prominent role in each of
our candidate treatment indications.
We
are advancing Sigyn Therapy as a candidate to treat end-stage renal disease (ESRD) dialysis patients with chronic inflammation and/or
endotoxemia, pathogen-associated sepsis (leading cause of hospital deaths), community acquired pneumonia (a leading cause of death
among infectious diseases), and emerging pandemic threats.
Since
initiating the development of Sigyn Therapy in 2020, we completed pre-clinical in vitro studies that quantified the
reduction of pathogen sources of inflammation from human blood plasma with small-scale versions of Sigyn Therapy. These
include endotoxin (a gram-negative bacterial toxin), peptidoglycan and lipoteichoic acid (gram-positive bacterial toxins), and viral
pathogens, including COVID-19.
We
also completed in vitro studies that quantified the reduction of inflammatory cytokines from human blood plasma
with small-scale versions of Sigyn Therapy. These include interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis
factor alpha (TNF-a). In a related study, liposomes were reduced from human blood plasma as a model system to evaluate the potential
of Sigyn Therapy to target CytoVesicles that transport inflammatory cytokine cargos throughout the bloodstream.
In
vitro studies also quantified the
reduction of hepatic (liver) toxins from human blood plasma with small-scale versions of Sigyn Therapy. These included
ammonia, bile acid and bilirubin. Based on these outcomes, we may further investigate the potential of Sigyn Therapy to treat
acute forms of liver failure in future studies.
Each
of our in vitro studies were conducted by Innovative Biotherapies, based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. With the exception of the liposome
data results, the studies quantified the reduction of each target from human blood plasma with small-scale versions of Sigyn Therapy.
Each of these studies were conducted for a period of four hours. In the liposome study, the formulation of adsorbent components that
we incorporate within Sigyn Therapy was quantified to reduce the presence of liposomes from human blood plasma in a test-tube rocker
study conducted for a period of two hours. While we maintain ownership of our in vitro study results, we do provide rights to
researchers at Innovative Biotherapies to publish our study results.
Subsequent
to our in vitro study results, we completed in vivo animal studies of Sigyn Therapy at the University of Michigan. In these
studies, Sigyn Therapy was administered via standard dialysis machines utilizing conventional blood-tubing sets, for periods up to six
hours in eight porcine (pig) subjects. Important criteria for treatment feasibility, including hemodynamic parameters, serum chemistries
and hematologic measurements, were stable across all eight subjects. While we maintain ownership of our in vivo animal study data,
we do provide rights to researchers at the University of Michigan to publish the results of our animal studies.
The
data resulting from our in vivo and in vitro studies is being incorporated into an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) that
we are drafting for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to support the potential initiation of human
feasibility studies in the United States.
Sigyn
Therapy Mechanism of Action
We are advancing Sigyn Therapy
as a candidate to treat pathogen-associated conditions that precipitate Sepsis, Community Acquired Pneumonia, Emerging Bioterror and
Pandemic threats, and End-Stage Renal Disease patients with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production.
To
support widespread implementation, Sigyn Therapy is a single-use disposable device that is deployable on the global infrastructure of
hemodialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) machines already located in hospitals and clinics. To reduce the risk of
blood clotting and hemolysis, the anticoagulant heparin is administered, which is the standard-of-care drug administered in dialysis
and CRRT therapies. During animal studies conducted at the University of Michigan, Sigyn Therapy was deployed for use on a hemodialysis
machine manufactured by Fresenius Medical Care, the global leader in the dialysis industry.
Incorporated
within Sigyn Therapy is a “cocktail” of adsorbent components formulated to optimize the reduction of therapeutic
targets from the bloodstream. In the medical field, the term “cocktail” is a reference to the simultaneous administration
of multiple drugs (a drug cocktail) with differing mechanisms of actions. While drug cocktails are emerging as potential mechanisms to
treat cancer, they are life-saving countermeasures to treat HIV and Hepatitis-C viral infections. However, dosing of multi-drug agent
cocktails is limited by toxicity and adverse events that can result from deleterious drug interactions.
Sigyn
Therapy is not constrained by such limitations as active adsorbent components are maintained within Sigyn Therapy and not introduced
into the body. As a result, we are able to incorporate a substantial quantity of adsorbent components to capture therapeutic targets
outside of the body as they circulate through Sigyn Therapy. Each adsorbent component has differing capture characteristics that contribute
to reducing the circulating presence of pathogenic and inflammatory targets that precipitate the cytokine storm that underlies
sepsis and other life-threatening inflammatory disorders.
The
adsorbent components incorporated within Sigyn Therapy provide more than 200,000 square meters (~50 acres) of surface area on which to
adsorb and remove circulating viruses, bacterial toxins, and inflammatory mediators. Based on targeted blood flow rates of 350ml/min,
a patient’s entire bloodstream can pass through Sigyn Therapy more than fifteen times during a single four-hour treatment period.
From
a technical perspective, Sigyn Therapy is a 325 mm long polycarbonate column that internally contains polyethersulphone hollow
fibers that have porous walls have a median pore size of ~200 nanometers (nm). As blood flows into Sigyn Therapy, plasma and
therapeutic targets below 200nm travel through the porous walls as a result of blood-side pressure. As the hollow fiber bundle
within Sigyn Therapy creates a resistance to the flow of blood, a pressure drop is created along the length of the device such that
the blood-side pressure is higher at the blood inlet and lower at the blood outlet. This allows for plasma and therapeutic targets
to flow away from the blood and into the extra-lumen space (inside the polycarbonate shell, yet outside the hollow-fiber bundle) to
interact with Sigyn Therapy’s adsorbent components in a low shear force environment. In the distal third of the fiber bundle,
the pressure gradient is reversed, which allows for plasma to flow back through the fiber walls to be reconvened into the
bloodstream without the presence of therapeutic targets that were captured by adsorbent components housed in the extra-lumen space
of Sigyn Therapy.
Overview
of Candidate Treatment Indications
Based
on data resulting from in vitro blood purification studies, our candidate treatment indications include, but are not limited to;
pathogen-associated conditions that precipitate Sepsis (leading cause of hospital deaths worldwide), Community Acquired Pneumonia (a
leading cause of death among infectious diseases), Emerging Bioterror and Pandemic threats, and End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients
with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production. However, there is no assurance that human feasibility and pivotal studies
will demonstrate Sigyn Therapy to be a safe and efficacious treatment for any of our treatment indications.
End-Stage
Renal Disease Endotoxemia and Inflammation
According
to the United States Renal Data System (USRDS), more than 550,000 individuals suffer from end-stage renal disease (ESRD), which results
in approximately 85 million kidney dialysis treatments being administered in the United States each year. Persistent inflammation is
a hallmark feature of ESRD as reflected by the excess production of inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),
interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), which contribute to increased all-cause mortality. ESRD inflammation also
induces intestinal permeability, which allows endotoxin (gram-negative bacterial toxin) to translocate from the gut and into the bloodstream.
Beyond fueling further inflammation, endotoxin is potent activator of sepsis, which can lead to multiple organ failure and death.
Sigyn
Therapy establishes a candidate strategy to improve the health and quality-of-life of ESRD patients. Beyond its potential to reduce
endotoxin, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 from human blood plasma, Sigyn Therapy can be administered in series with dialysis therapy.
We
are currently preparing an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”)
related to a human feasibility study of Sigyn Therapy in ESRD patients with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production.
As per the study protocol, Sigyn Therapy will be administered in combination with the regularly scheduled dialysis treatments of enrolled
subjects. The primary study objective will be to evaluate the safety of Sigyn Therapy in health compromised ESRD patients. A secondary
objective is to quantify changes in circulating levels of endotoxin, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β
(IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) before and after each Sigyn Therapy administration. Endotoxin and excess TNF-α, IL-1β,
and IL-6 production are commonly associated with each of our candidate treatment indications, including sepsis and community-acquired
pneumonia. At present, we are identifying candidate clinical site locations and then plan to submit an IDE application to FDA related
to the potential initiation of a human feasibility study of ESRD subjects that meet our enrollment criteria. Our clinical strategy has
not yet been communicated to FDA and there is no assurance that FDA will approve the initiation of our feasibility study.
Sepsis
Sepsis
is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. In January of 2020, a report
entitled; “Global, Regional, and National Sepsis Incidence and Mortality, 1990-2017: Analysis for the Global Burden of Disease
Study,” was published in the Journal Lancet. The publication reported 48.9 million cases of sepsis and 11 million deaths in
2017. In that same year, an estimated 20.3 million sepsis cases and 2.9 million deaths were among children younger than 5-years old.
The report included a reference that sepsis kills more people around the world than all forms of cancer combined. In the United States,
sepsis was reported to be the most common cause of hospital deaths with an annual financial burden that exceeds $24 billion.
To
date, more than 100 human studies have been conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of candidate drugs to treat sepsis. With one
brief exception (Xigris, Eli Lilly), none of these studies resulted in a market cleared therapy.
As
sepsis remains beyond the reach of single-target drugs, there is an emerging interest in multi-mechanism therapies that can target both
inflammatory and pathogen associated targets. Sigyn Therapy addresses a broad-spectrum of pathogen sources and the resulting dysregulated
cytokine production (the cytokine storm) that is the hallmark of sepsis. Additionally, we believe that inflammatory cytokine cargos transported
by CytoVesicles may represent a novel, yet important therapeutic target.
Community
Acquired Pneumonia
Community
Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) represents a significant opportunity for Sigyn Therapy to reduce the occurrence of sepsis. CAP is a leading
cause of death among infectious diseases, the leading cause of death in children under five years of age, and a catalyst for approximately
50% of sepsis and septic shock cases.
In
the United States, more than 1.5 million individuals are hospitalized with CAP each year, resulting in an annual financial burden that
exceeds $10 billion.
Statistically,
a therapeutic strategy that reduced the incidence of CAP related sepsis and septic shock would save thousands of lives each year. In
a study of 4,222 patients, the all-cause mortality for adult patients with CAP was reported to be 6.5% during hospitalization. However,
the mortality of patients with CAP related sepsis and septic shock rose to 51% during hospitalization.
CAP
is further complicated by the fact that the pathogen sources of CAP are identified in only 38% of patients, based on a study of 2,259
subjects whose pneumonia diagnosis was confirmed by chest x-ray. Of the source pathogens identified in the study, ninety seven percent
(97%) were either viral or bacterial in origin.
To
reduce the occurrence of CAP related sepsis and septic shock, Sigyn Therapy offers a broad-spectrum mechanism to reduce the circulating
presence of viral pathogens and bacterial toxins before and if they are identified as the CAP pathogen source. Additionally, Sigyn Therapy
may help to control the excess production of inflammatory cytokines (the cytokine storm) that precipitate sepsis and septic shock.
Emerging
Pandemic Threats
Covid-19
affirmed the use of extracorporeal blood purification as a first-line countermeasures to treat an emerging pandemic threat not addressed
with an approved drug or vaccine at the outset of an outbreak. On March 24, 2020, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
declared that the emergence of COVID-19 justified the Emergency-Use Authorization (EUA) of drugs, biological products, and medical devices
to combat the pandemic. Within a month of this HHS declaration, FDA awarded an EUA to blood purification therapies from Terumo BCT, ExThera
Medical Corporation, CytoSorbents, Inc., and Baxter Healthcare Corporation. In connection with these authorizations, FDA published a
statement that blood purification devices may be effective at treating patients with confirmed COVID-19 by reducing various pathogens,
cytokines, and other inflammatory mediators from the bloodstream.
Consistent
with FDA’s statement, Sigyn Therapy has reduced various pathogens, cytokines, and other inflammatory mediators from human
blood plasma during in vitro studies and may represent a candidate strategy to treat future pandemic outbreaks, which
are increasingly being fueled by a confluence of global warming, urban crowding, and intercontinental travel.
Additionally,
as a majority of infectious human viruses are not addressed with a corresponding drug or vaccine, there may be an ongoing need for blood
purification technologies that offer to reduce the severity of infection and mitigate the excess production of inflammatory cytokines
(the cytokine storm) associated with high mortality in non-pandemic viral infections. In this regard, we believe Sigyn Therapy also aligns
with HHS initiatives established through the Public Health Emergency Medical Countermeasure Enterprise (PHEMCE) that support the development
of broad-spectrum medical countermeasures that can mitigate the impact of an emerging pandemic or bioterror threat, yet also have viability
in established disease indications.
Candidate
Pipeline Product
Beyond
our focus to clinically advance Sigyn Therapy, we intend to develop a pipeline of extracorporeal blood purification therapies. In this
regard, we have designed a therapeutic system to enhance the benefit of cancer chemotherapy. To support this endeavor, we disclosed on
October 6, 2022, that a provisional patent application entitled: “SYSTEM AND
METHODS TO ENHANCE CHEMOTHERAPY DELIVERY AND REDUCE TOXICITY” had been filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office
(“USPTO”). The provisional patent submission established the priority date of our now patent pending invention and provides
us up to one year to submit a non-provisional application. On October 13, 2022, we subsequently disclosed that trademark applications
to register ChemoPrep™ and ChemoPure™ were filed with the USPTO”.
Chemotherapeutic
agents are the most commonly administered drugs to treat cancer, which is the second leading cause of death in the United States.
Despite
therapeutic advances, treatment toxicity, drug resistance and inadequate tumor site delivery restrict the benefit of chemotherapy. To
overcome these challenges, our patent submission describes a therapeutic device system whose primary objective is to enhance tumor site
delivery of chemotherapy and reduce its toxicity. A secondary objective of the system is to reduce treatment dosing without sacrificing
patient benefit, or conversely increase chemotherapy dosing without added toxicity. In concert with these objectives, the therapeutic
system offers to inhibit the spread of cancer metastasis reported to be induced by the administration of chemotherapy.
Our
proposed chemotherapy enhancement system is comprised of two blood purification technologies. ChemoPrepTM, administered prior
to chemotherapy to optimize tumor site delivery and improve the benefit of ChemoPureTM, which is deployed post-chemotherapy
to reduce treatment toxicity and inhibit the potential spread of cancer metastasis.

General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs and professional fees required to support our operations and growth.
Depending
on the extent of our future growth, we may experience significant strain on our management, personnel, and information systems. We will
need to implement and improve operational, financial, and management information systems. In addition, we are implementing new information
systems that will provide better record-keeping, customer service and billing. However, there can be no assurance that our management
resources or information systems will be sufficient to manage any future growth in our business, and the failure to do so could have
a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Reclassifications
Certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on
the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been made to the Consolidated Statements of Operations for three months ended March
31, 2021, to reclass $93,266 of costs to research and development previously classified in general and administrative. In addition, an
adjustment has been made to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2021, to reclass $1,072 of other current
liabilities previously classified in accrued payroll and payroll taxes.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among
other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated
deficit of $6,336,639 at September 30, 2022, had a working capital deficit of $1,817,541 and $341,187 at September
30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, had a net loss of $726,609 and $2,070,880 and $665,904 and $1,777,447
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and net cash used in operating activities
of $1,378,475 and $1,221,221 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with no
revenue earned since inception, and a lack of operational history. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern.
While
the Company is attempting to expand operations and increase revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be significant enough
to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public offering or an
asset sale transaction. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate
revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While management believes in the viability of its strategy
to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds or transact an asset sale, there can be no assurances to that effect
or on terms acceptable to the Company. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s
ability to further implement its business plan and generate revenues.
The
condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a
going concern.
General
– Overall, we had a decrease in cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $312,833
resulting from cash used in operating activities of $1,378,475 and cash used in investing activities of $860, offset partially
by cash provided by financing activities of $1,066,502.

Cash
Flows from Operating Activities – For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in operations
was $1,378,475 compared to net cash used in operations of $1,221,221 for the nine months ended September
30, 2021. Net cash used in operations was primarily due to a net loss of $2,070,880 for nine months ended September
30, 2022 and the changes in operating assets and liabilities of $289,465, primarily due to the increase in accounts payable
of $266,147 and accrued payroll and payroll taxes of $29,052, offset partially by other current liabilities of $555
and other current assets of $5,179. In addition, net cash used in operating activities includes adjustments to reconcile net
profit from depreciation expense of $5,139, amortization expense of $2,700, accretion of original issuance costs of $85,875,
and accretion of debt discount of $309,226.
For
the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used in operations was $1,221,221. Net cash used in operations
was primarily due to a net loss of $1,777,447 for nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the changes in operating
assets and liabilities of $2,932, primarily due to the increase in accounts payable of $16,869 and other current liabilities
of $43,692, offset primarily by other current assets of $27,509, other assets of $20,711, and accrued payroll
and payroll taxes of $15,273. In addition, net cash used in operating activities includes adjustments to reconcile net profit from
depreciation expense of $1,279, amortization expense of $15,305, stock issued for services of $211,500, accretion
of original issuance costs of $44,683, and accretion of debt discount of $286,391.
Cash
Flows from Investing Activities – For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in investing
activities was $860 due to the purchase of property and equipment compared to cash used in investing activities of $20,205
for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due to the purchase of property and equipment.
Cash
Flows from Financing Activities – For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash provided by financing
was $1,066,502, due to proceeds from short term convertible notes of $1,110,000 and fees associated with the filing of
the Company’s Form S-1 of $43,498 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $1,660,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2021 due to proceeds from common stock issued for cash of $1,465,000 and short term convertible notes
$250,000, and repayment of short term convertible notes of $55,000.
Financing
– We expect that our current working capital position, together with our expected future cash flows from operations will
be insufficient to fund our operations in the ordinary course of business, anticipated capital expenditures, debt payment requirements
and other contractual obligations for at least the next twelve months. As stated above, Management intends to raise additional
funds by way of a public offering or an asset sale transaction, however there can be no assurance that we will be successful
in completing such transactions.
We
have no present agreements or commitments with respect to any material acquisitions of other businesses, products, product rights or
technologies or any other material capital expenditures. However, we will continue to evaluate acquisitions of and/or investments in
products, technologies, capital equipment or improvements or companies that complement our business and may make such acquisitions and/or
investments in the future. Accordingly, we may need to obtain additional sources of capital in the future to finance any such acquisitions
and/or investments. We may not be able to obtain such financing on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Due to the ongoing global
economic crisis, we believe it may be difficult to obtain additional financing if needed. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing,
it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders,
in the case of equity financing.
Capital
Expenditures
We
expect to purchase approximately $30,000 of equipment in connection with the expansion of our business during the next twelve months.
Fiscal
year end
Our
fiscal year end is December 31.

DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS
Business
Overview
Sigyn
Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sigyn”, the “Company”, “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a development-stage
company focused on creating therapeutic solutions that address unmet needs in global health. Our corporate address is 2468 Historic Decatur
Road, Suite 140, San Diego, California, 92106.
Sigyn
Therapy™, our lead product candidate, is a broad-spectrum blood purification technology designed to treat pathogen-associated inflammatory
disorders that are not addressed with approved drug therapies. Candidate treatment indications include endotoxemia and inflammation in
end-stage renal disease (dialysis) patients, sepsis (a leading cause of hospital deaths), community acquired pneumonia (a leading cause
of death among infectious diseases), and emerging pandemic threats.
Our
development pipeline includes a cancer treatment system comprised of ChemoPrep™ to enhance the tumor site delivery of chemotherapy,
and ChemoPure™ to reduce treatment toxicity and inhibit the spread of cancer metastasis.
Merger
Transaction
On
October 19, 2020, Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”) formerly known as Reign Resources Corporation,
completed a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc., a private entity incorporated in the
State of Delaware on October 19, 2019.
In
the Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of privately held Sigyn Therapeutics common stock
in exchange for 75% of the fully paid and nonassessable shares of our common stock outstanding (the “Acquisition”). In conjunction
with the transaction, we changed our name from Reign Resources Corporation to Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. pursuant to an amendment to our
articles of incorporation that was filed with the State of Delaware. Subsequently, our trading symbol was changed to SIGY. The Acquisition
was treated by the Company as a reverse merger in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“GAAP”). For accounting purposes, Sigyn is considered to have acquired Reign Resources Corporation as the accounting acquirer
because: (i) Sigyn stockholders own 75% of the combined company, on an as-converted basis, immediately following the Closing Date, (ii)
Sigyn directors hold a majority of board seats in the combined company and (iii) Sigyn management held all key positions in the management
of the combined company. Accordingly, Sigyn’s historical results of operations will replace Reign Resources Corporation’s
historical results of operations for all periods prior to the Acquisition and, for all periods following the Acquisition, the results
of operations of the combined company will be included in the Company’s financial statements. The
Acquisition was treated as a “tax-free exchange” under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and resulted in the
private Sigyn Therapeutics corporate entity (established on October 29, 2019) to become a wholly owned subsidiary of Reign Resources
Corporation. Among the conditions for closing the acquisition, the Reign Resources Corporation extinguished all previously reported liabilities,
its preferred class of shares, and all stock purchase options. As a result, the reported liabilities totalling $3,429,516 were converted
into a total of 7,907,351 common shares. Additionally, assets held on the books of Reign Resources
Corporation, such as Gem inventory, was kept in the Company and therefore recorded as assets on the Share Exchange date. Upon
the closing of the Acquisition, we appointed James A. Joyce and Craig P. Roberts to serve as members of our Board of Directors.
As
of March 31, 2023, we had a total 42,713,325 shares issued and outstanding, of which 17,073,325 shares are held by non-affiliate shareholders.
Post-Merger
Developments
Since
the consummation of the Acquisition on October 19, 2020, we have advanced Sigyn Therapy from conceptual design through completion of
in vitro studies that have quantified the reduction of relevant therapeutic targets from human blood plasma with small-scale versions
of Sigyn Therapy. These include endotoxin (gram-negative bacterial toxin); peptidoglycan and lipoteichoic acid (gram-positive bacterial
toxins); viral pathogens (including SARS-CoV-2); hepatic toxins (ammonia, bile acid, and bilirubin); and tumour necrosis factor alpha
(TNF alpha), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b), and interleukin 6 (IL-6), which are pro-inflammatory cytokines whose dysregulated production
(the cytokine storm) precipitate sepsis and play a prominent role in each of our therapeutic opportunities.
Subsequent
to these studies, we disclosed the completion of in vivo animal studies. In these studies, Sigyn Therapy was administered via
standard dialysis machines utilizing conventional blood-tubing sets, for periods of up to six hours in eight (8) porcine (pig) subjects,
each weighing approximately 40-45 kilograms. The studies were comprised of a pilot phase (two subjects), which evaluated the feasibility
of the study protocol in the first-in-mammal use of Sigyn Therapy; and an expansion phase (six subjects) to further assess treatment
feasibility and refine pre-treatment set-up and operating procedures. There were no serious adverse events reported in any of the treated
animal subjects. Of the eight treatments, seven were administered for the entire six-hour treatment period. One treatment was halted
early due to the observation of a clot in the device, which was believed to be the result of a procedural deviation in the pre-treatment
set-up. Important criteria for treatment feasibility – including hemodynamic parameters, serum chemistries and hematologic measurements
– were stable across all subjects.
The
studies were conducted by a clinical team at Innovative BioTherapies, Inc. (“IBT”), under a contract with the University
of Michigan to utilize animal care, associated institutional review oversight, as well as surgical suite facilities located within the
North Campus Research Complex. The treatment protocol of the study was reviewed and approved by the University of Michigan Institutional
Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC).
The
animal studies were conducted to correspond with FDA’s best practice guidance. The number of animals enrolled in our study and
the amount of data collected was based on the ethical and least burdensome principles that underly the FDA goal of using the minimum
number of animals necessary to generate valid scientific data to demonstrate reasonable feasibility and performance of a medical device
prior to human study consideration. A porcine animal model is a generally accepted model for the study of extracorporeal blood purification
devices intended to treat infectious disease and inflammatory disorders. Regardless of these factors, FDA may require that we conduct
additional animal studies.
The
data resulting from our in vivo and in vitro studies is being incorporated into an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) that
we are drafting for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to support the potential initiation of a
human feasibility study in End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production. As
per the study protocol, Sigyn Therapy is to be administered in combination with the regularly scheduled dialysis treatments of enrolled
subjects. The primary study objective will be to evaluate the safety of Sigyn Therapy in health compromised ESRD patients. A secondary
objective will be to quantify changes in circulating levels of endotoxin, tumour necrosis factor-αlpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1β
(IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) before and after each Sigyn Therapy administration. Endotoxin and excess TNF-α, IL-1β,
and IL-6 production are commonly associated with each of our candidate treatment indications, including sepsis and community-acquired
pneumonia.
Based
on our previous experience in developing extracorporeal blood purification therapies, we believe that we have collected sufficient data
to support first-in-human studies of Sigyn Therapy. Sigyn Therapy, as a significant risk Class III device, which requires extensive pre-clinical
and clinical studies to be conducted along with the submission of a Pre-Market Approval (PMA) application prior to market clearance consideration
by FDA. At present, we are identifying candidate clinical site locations and then plan to submit an IDE application to FDA related to
the potential initiation of a human feasibility study to demonstrate the safety of Sigyn Therapy. Our clinical strategy has not yet been
communicated to FDA and there is no assurance that FDA will approve the initiation of our feasibility study. Additionally, while we believe
the data from our in vivo and in vitro studies provides support for our IDE submission, FDA may request that we conduct additional
animal or pre-clinical studies prior to approving our IDE. Among our previous experiences in developing extracorporeal blood purification
therapies, our CEO oversaw the development of the Aethlon Hemopurifier, a blood purification device that received an FDA “Breakthrough
Device” designation for the treatment of life-threatening viruses and was awarded a second FDA “Breakthrough Device”
designation related to the treatment of cancer. The Hemopurifier has not yet been approved by FDA and remains in clinical trials.
Sigyn
Therapy Mechanism of Action
We
designed Sigyn Therapy to be a candidate to treat pathogen-associated inflammatory conditions that are life-threatening. To date, pre-clinical
in vitro studies have quantified the reduction of viral pathogens, bacterial toxins, and inflammatory mediators from human blood
plasma with small-scale versions of Sigyn Therapy. Such capabilities establish Sigyn Therapy as a candidate to treat pathogen-associated
conditions that precipitate Sepsis, Community Acquired Pneumonia, Emerging Bioterror and Pandemic threats, and End-Stage Renal Disease
patients with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production.
To
support widespread implementation, Sigyn Therapy is a single-use disposable device that is deployable on the global infrastructure of
hemodialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) machines already located in hospitals and clinics. To reduce the risk of
blood clotting and hemolysis, the anticoagulant heparin is administered, which is the standard-of-care drug administered in dialysis
and CRRT therapies. During animal studies conducted at the University of Michigan, Sigyn Therapy was deployed for use on a hemodialysis
machine manufactured by Fresenius Medical Care, the global leader in the dialysis industry.
Incorporated
within Sigyn Therapy is a “cocktail” of adsorbent components formulated to optimize the broad-spectrum reduction of therapeutic
targets from the bloodstream. In the medical field, the term “cocktail” is a reference to the simultaneous administration
of multiple drugs (a drug cocktail) with differing mechanisms of actions. While drug cocktails are emerging as potential mechanisms to
treat cancer, they are life-saving countermeasures to treat HIV and Hepatitis-C viral infections. However, dosing of multi-drug agent
cocktails is limited by toxicity and adverse events that can result from deleterious drug interactions.
Sigyn
Therapy is not constrained by such limitations as active adsorbent components are maintained within Sigyn Therapy and not introduced
into the body. As a result, we are able to incorporate a substantial quantity of adsorbent components to capture therapeutic targets
outside of the body as they circulate through Sigyn Therapy. Each adsorbent component has differing capture characteristics that contribute
to optimizing the potential of Sigyn Therapy to reduce the presence of pathogenic and inflammatory targets that precipitate the cytokine
storm that underlies sepsis and other life-threatening inflammatory disorders.
The
adsorbent components incorporated within Sigyn Therapy provide more than 200,000 square meters (~50 acres) of surface area on which to
adsorb and remove circulating viruses, bacterial toxins, and inflammatory mediators. Beyond a potential capacity to reduce therapeutic
targets from human blood plasma, we believe that Sigyn Therapy offers an efficient treatment methodology. Based on targeted blood flow
rates of 350ml/min, a patient’s entire bloodstream can pass through Sigyn Therapy more than fifteen times during a single four-hour
treatment period.
From
a technical perspective, Sigyn Therapy is a 325mm long polycarbonate column that internally contains polyethersulphone hollow fibers
that have porous walls with a median pore size of ~200 nanometers (nm). As blood flows into Sigyn Therapy, plasma and therapeutic targets
below 200nm travel through the porous walls as a result of blood-side pressure. As the hollow fiber bundle within Sigyn Therapy creates
a resistance to the flow of blood, a pressure drop is created along the length of the device such that the blood-side pressure is higher
at the blood inlet and lower at the blood outlet. This allows for plasma and therapeutic targets to flow away from the blood and into
the extra-lumen space (inside the polycarbonate shell, yet outside the hollow-fiber bundle) to interact with Sigyn Therapy’s adsorbent
components in a low shear force environment. In the distal third of the fiber bundle, the pressure gradient is reversed, which allows
for plasma to flow back through the fiber walls to be reconvened into the bloodstream without the presence of therapeutic targets that
were captured or bound by adsorbent components housed in the extra-lumen space of Sigyn Therapy.
Overview
of Candidate Treatment Indications
Based
on data resulting from in vitro blood purification studies, our candidate treatment indications include, but are not limited to;
pathogen-associated inflammatory conditions that precipitate Sepsis (leading cause of hospital deaths worldwide), Community Acquired
Pneumonia (a leading cause of death among infectious diseases), Emerging Bioterror and Pandemic threats, and endotoxemia and inflammation
in End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients. However, there is no assurance that human feasibility and pivotal studies will demonstrate
Sigyn Therapy to be a safe and efficacious treatment for any treatment indications.
End-Stage
Renal Disease, Endotoxemia and Inflammation
According
to the United States Renal Data System (USRDS), more than 550,000 individuals suffer from end-stage renal disease (ESRD), which results
in approximately 85 million kidney dialysis treatments being administered in the United States each year. Persistent inflammation is
a hallmark feature of ESRD as reflected by the excess production of inflammatory cytokines, including tumour necrosis factor-α
(TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), which contribute to increased all-cause mortality. ESRD inflammation
also induces intestinal permeability, which allows endotoxin (gram-negative bacterial toxin) to translocate from the gut and into the
bloodstream. Beyond fuelling further inflammation, endotoxin is potent activator of sepsis, which can lead to multiple organ failure
and ultimately death.
Sigyn
Therapy establishes a candidate strategy to improve the health and quality-of-life of ESRD patients. Beyond its potential to reduce endotoxin,
TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 from human blood plasma, Sigyn Therapy can be administered in series with regularly scheduled dialysis
therapy.
We
are currently preparing an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”)
related to a human feasibility study of Sigyn Therapy in ESRD patients with endotoxemia and elevated inflammatory cytokine production.
As per the study protocol, Sigyn Therapy will be administered in combination with the regularly scheduled dialysis treatments of enrolled
subjects. The primary study objective will be to evaluate the safety of Sigyn Therapy in health compromised ESRD patients. A secondary
objective is to quantify changes in circulating levels of endotoxin, tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β
(IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) before and after each Sigyn Therapy administration. Endotoxin and excess TNF-α, IL-1β,
and IL-6 production are commonly associated with each of our candidate treatment indications, including sepsis and community-acquired
pneumonia.
Sepsis
Sepsis
is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. In January of 2020, a report
entitled; “Global, Regional, and National Sepsis Incidence and Mortality, 1990-2017: Analysis for the Global Burden of Disease
Study,” was published in the Journal Lancet. The publication reported 48.9 million cases of sepsis and 11 million deaths in
2017. In that same year, an estimated 20.3 million sepsis cases and 2.9 million deaths were among children younger than 5-years old.
The report included a reference that sepsis kills more people around the world than all forms of cancer combined. In the United States,
sepsis was reported to be the most common cause of hospital deaths with an annual financial burden that exceeds $24 billion.
To
date, more than 100 human studies have been conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of candidate drugs to treat sepsis. With one
brief exception (Xigris, Eli Lilly), none of these studies resulted in a market cleared therapy. As sepsis remains beyond the reach of
single-target drugs, there is an emerging interest in multi-mechanism therapies that can target both inflammatory and pathogen associated
targets. Sigyn Therapy addresses a broad-spectrum of pathogen sources and the resulting dysregulated cytokine production (the cytokine
storm) that is the hallmark of sepsis. Additionally, we believe that inflammatory cytokine cargos transported by CytoVesicles may represent
a novel, yet important therapeutic target.
Community
Acquired Pneumonia
Community
Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) represents a significant opportunity for Sigyn Therapy to reduce the occurrence of sepsis. CAP is a leading
cause of death among infectious diseases, the leading cause of death in children under five years of age, and a catalyst for approximately
50% of sepsis and septic shock cases.
In
the United States, more than 1.5 million individuals are hospitalized with CAP each year, resulting in an annual financial burden that
exceeds $10 billion.
Statistically,
a therapeutic strategy that reduced the incidence of CAP related sepsis and septic shock would save thousands of lives each year. In
a study of 4,222 patients, the all-cause mortality for adult patients with CAP was reported to be 6.5% during hospitalization. However,
the mortality of patients with CAP related sepsis and septic shock rose to 51% during hospitalization.
CAP
is further complicated by the fact that the pathogen sources of CAP are identified in only 38% of patients, based on a study of 2,259
subjects whose pneumonia diagnosis was confirmed by chest x-ray. Of the source pathogens identified in the study, ninety seven percent
(97%) were either viral or bacterial in origin.
To
reduce the occurrence of CAP related sepsis and septic shock, Sigyn Therapy offers a broad-spectrum mechanism to reduce the circulating
presence of viral pathogens and bacterial toxins before and if they are identified as the CAP pathogen source. Additionally, Sigyn Therapy
may help to control the excess production of inflammatory cytokines (the cytokine storm) that precipitate sepsis and septic shock.
Emerging
Pandemic Threats
Covid-19
affirmed the use of extracorporeal blood purification as a first-line countermeasures to treat an emerging pandemic threat not addressed
with an approved drug or vaccine at the outset of an outbreak. On March 24, 2020, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
declared that the emergence of COVID-19 justified the Emergency-Use Authorization (EUA) of drugs, biological products, and medical devices
to combat the pandemic. Within a month of this HHS declaration, FDA awarded an EUA to blood purification therapies from Terumo BCT, ExThera
Medical Corporation, CytoSorbents, Inc., and Baxter Healthcare Corporation. In connection with these authorizations, FDA published a
statement that blood purification devices may be effective at treating patients with confirmed COVID-19 by reducing various pathogens,
cytokines, and other inflammatory mediators from the bloodstream.
Consistent
with FDA’s statement, small-scale versions of Sigyn Therapy have been quantified to reduce the presence of various pathogens, cytokines,
and other inflammatory mediators from human blood plasma during in vitro studies. As such, we believe that Sigyn Therapy could
provide a candidate strategy to treat future pandemic outbreaks, which are increasingly being fuelled by a confluence of global warming,
urban crowding, and intercontinental travel.
Additionally,
as a majority of infectious human viruses are not addressed with a corresponding drug or vaccine, there may be an ongoing need for blood
purification technologies that offer to reduce the severity of infection and mitigate the excess production of inflammatory cytokines
(the cytokine storm) associated with high mortality in non-pandemic viral infections. In this regard, we believe Sigyn Therapy aligns
with HHS initiatives established through the Public Health Emergency Medical Countermeasure Enterprise (PHEMCE) that support the development
of broad-spectrum medical countermeasures that can mitigate the impact of an emerging pandemic or bioterror threat, yet also have viability
in established disease indications.
Candidate
Pipeline Product
Beyond
our focus to clinically advance Sigyn Therapy, we intend to develop a pipeline of extracorporeal blood purification therapies. In this
regard, we have designed a therapeutic system to enhance the benefit of cancer chemotherapy. To support this endeavor, we disclosed on
October 6, 2022, that a patent application entitled: “SYSTEM AND METHODS TO ENHANCE CHEMOTHERAPY DELIVERY AND REDUCE TOXICITY”
had been filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). On October 13, 2022, we subsequently disclosed
that trademark applications to register ChemoPrepTM and ChemoPureTM were filed with the USPTO”.
Chemotherapeutic
agents are the most commonly administered drugs to treat cancer, which is the second leading cause of death in the United States. Despite
therapeutic advances, treatment toxicity, drug resistance and inadequate tumour site delivery restrict the benefit of chemotherapy. To
overcome these challenges, our patent submission describes a therapeutic device system whose primary objective is to enhance tumour site
delivery of chemotherapy and reduce its toxicity. A secondary objective of the system is to reduce treatment dosing without sacrificing
patient benefit, or conversely increase chemotherapy dosing without added toxicity. In concert with these objectives, our candidate therapeutic
system offers to inhibit the spread of cancer metastasis that can be induced by the administration of chemotherapy.
Our
proposed chemotherapy enhancement system is comprised of two blood purification technologies. ChemoPrepTM, administered prior
to chemotherapy to optimize tumour site delivery and improve the benefit of ChemoPureTM, which is deployed post-chemotherapy
to reduce treatment toxicity and inhibit the potential spread of cancer metastasis.
To
improve the delivery of chemotherapeutic agents, we designed ChemoPrepTM with an objective to reduce the bloodstream presence
of tumour-derived extracellular vesicles or exosomes (Tumor-EXs) that diminish the efficacy of chemotherapy. As compared to non-cancer
subjects, Tumor-EXs are highly concentrated in the bloodstream of those suffering from cancer. Tumor-EXs decoy and directly inhibit chemotherapeutic
agents from reaching tumour cell targets. Tumor-EXs have also been reported to export chemotherapeutic agents out of cancer cells. Based
on these factors, we believe the pre-chemo depletion of circulating Tumor-EXs could establish a novel, yet practical strategy to increase
tumour-site saturation of chemotherapy, which in turn may permit for lower doses of chemotherapy to be administered without diminishing
patient benefit.
ChemoPrepTM
may also improve the performance of ChemoPureTM as a reduced bloodstream presence of Tumor-EXs, which are competitive
binding and adsorption factors based on similar size and structural characteristics, would likely increase the efficiency of ChemoPureTM
to reduce the presence of off-target chemotherapeutic agents that remain circulating in the bloodstream.
ChemoPureTM
was designed to perform two critical functions after chemotherapy administration. To reduce treatment toxicity by lowering the
bloodstream presence of chemotherapeutic agents that are not delivered to the target tumour site, and to reduce the circulating presence
of chemotherapy-induced Tumor-EXs that may promote the spread of cancer metastases.
Unlike
Sigyn TherapyTM, which is a candidate to treat life-threatening conditions that are not addressed with approved drug therapies,
the intent of the ChemoPrepTM and ChemoPureTM is to enhance the delivery of market-cleared chemotherapeutic drugs
and reduce their toxicity. Additionally, while Sigyn TherapyTM is a hollow-fiber based device designed for use on dialysis
and continuous renal replacement machines, ChemoPrepTM and ChemoPureTM do not contain hollow-fibers and are intended
for use on portable blood processing systems that can be located within the clinical sites where chemotherapy is administered. During
treatment, the functionality of the blood processing system allows for patient blood plasma to flow through our devices, which contain
formulations of adsorbent and binding components intended deplete Tumor-EXs and chemotherapeutic agents from the bloodstream.
In
an in vitro study conducted by researchers at Innovative Biotherapies, we obtained pre-clinical insight that liposomal nanoparticles,
commonly used to deliver chemotherapeutic agents, can be reduced from human blood plasma with a formulation of adsorbent components.
In the study, liposome concentrations in human blood plasma were reduced by 92.5% after a two-hour interaction with the adsorbent components.
Beyond providing initial support for our candidate strategy to remove liposomal drug agents, the study established the possibility that
Tumor-EXs may also be reduced from blood plasma as liposomes have previously served as a research model system for isolating extracellular
vesicles and exosomes based on a similarity of size and structural characteristics.

Government
Regulation
In
the United States, Sigyn Therapy is subject to regulation by the FDA. Should we seek to commercialize Sigyn Therapy outside the United
States, we expect to face comparable international regulatory oversight. The U.S. regulatory jurisdiction for extracorporeal blood purification
therapies is the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (“CDRH”), the FDA branch that oversees the market approval of
medical devices.
Based
on published CDRH guidance, we believe that Sigyn Therapy will be classified as a Class III medical device that is subject to a Pre-Market
Approval (“PMA”) submission pathway. A PMA pathway requires extensive data, including but not limited to technical documents,
preclinical studies, animal studies, human clinical trials, the establishment of Current Good Manufacturing Practices (“cGMPs”)
standards and labelling that fulfils FDA’s requirement to demonstrate reasonable evidence of safety and effectiveness of a medical
device product. However, as Sigyn Therapy does not emit electronic product radiation, it will not be subject to regulatory challenges
associated with medical devices that emit electronic radiation.
The
commercialization of medical devices in the United States requires either a prior 510(k) clearance, unless it is exempt, or a PMA from
the FDA. Generally, if a new device has a predicate that is already on the market under a 510(k) clearance, the FDA will allow that new
device to be marketed under a 510(k) clearance; otherwise, a premarket approval, or PMA, is required. Medical devices are classified
into one of three classes; Class I, Class II or Class III which are determined by the degree of risk associated with each medical device
and the extent of control needed to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. Class I devices are deemed to be low risk
and are subject to the general controls of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, such as provisions that relate to: adulteration;
misbranding; registration and listing; notification, including repair, replacement, or refund; records and reports; and good manufacturing
practices. Most Class I devices are classified as exempt from pre-market notification under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act, and therefore
may be commercially distributed without obtaining 510(k) clearance from the FDA. Class II devices are subject to both general controls
and special controls to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. Special controls include performance standards, post
market surveillance, patient registries and guidance documents. A manufacturer may be required to submit to the FDA a pre-market notification
requesting permission to commercially distribute some Class II devices. Devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risk, such as
life-sustaining, life-supporting or implantable devices, or devices deemed not substantially equivalent to a previously cleared 510(k)
device, are placed in Class III. A Class III device cannot be marketed in the United States unless the FDA approves the device after
submission of a PMA. We believe that Sigyn Therapy will be classified as a Class III device and as such will be subject to a PMA submission
and approval.
Should
Sigyn Therapy receive market clearance from FDA, we would need to comply with applicable laws and regulations that govern the development,
testing, manufacturing, labeling, marketing, storage, distribution, advertising and promotion, and post-marketing surveillance reporting
for medical devices. Failure to comply with these applicable requirements may subject a device and/or its manufacturer to a variety of
administrative sanctions, such as issuance of warning letters, import detentions, civil monetary penalties and/or judicial sanctions,
such as product seizures, injunctions and criminal prosecution. Our failure to comply with any of these laws and regulations could have
a material adverse effect on our operations.
The
Pre-market Approval Pathway
A
pre-market approval (PMA) application must be submitted to the FDA for Class III devices for which FDA requires a PMA. The PMA application
process is much more demanding than the 510(k)-pre-market notification process. A PMA application must be supported by extensive data,
including but not limited to technical, preclinical, clinical trials, manufacturing and labeling to demonstrate to the FDA’s satisfaction
reasonable evidence of safety and effectiveness of the device.
After
a PMA application is submitted, the FDA has 45 days to determine whether the application is sufficiently complete to permit a substantive
review and thus whether the FDA will file the application for review. The FDA has 180 days to review a filed PMA application, although
the review of an application generally occurs over a significantly longer period of time and can take up to several years. During this
review period, the FDA may request additional information or clarification of the information already provided. Also, an advisory panel
of experts from outside the FDA may be convened to review and evaluate the application and provide recommendations to the FDA as to the
approvability of the device.
Although
the FDA is not bound by the advisory panel decision, the panel’s recommendations are important to the FDA decision making process.
In addition, the FDA may conduct a preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facility to ensure compliance with the Quality System
Regulation, or QSR. The agency also may inspect one or more clinical sites to assure compliance with FDA’s regulations.
Upon
completion of the PMA review, the FDA may: (i) approve the PMA which authorizes commercial marketing with specific prescribing information
for one or more indications, which can be more limited than those originally sought; (ii) issue an approvable letter which indicates
the FDA’s belief that the PMA is approvable and states what additional information the FDA requires, or the post-approval commitments
that must be agreed to prior to approval; issue a not approvable letter which outlines steps required for approval, but which are typically
more onerous than those in an approvable letter, and may require additional clinical trials that are often expensive and time consuming
and can delay approval for months or even years; or (iv) deny the application. If the FDA issues an approvable or not approvable letter,
the applicant has 180 days to respond, after which the FDA’s review clock is reset.
Clinical
Trials
Clinical
trials are almost always required to support PMA market clearance and are sometimes required for 510(k) clearance. In the United States,
for significant risk Class III devices, these trials require submission of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) application to the
FDA. The IDE application must be supported by appropriate data, such as animal and laboratory testing results, showing it is safe to
test the device in humans and that the testing protocol is scientifically sound. The IDE must be approved in advance by the FDA for a
specific number of patients at specified study sites. During the trial, the sponsor must comply with the FDA’s IDE requirements
for investigator selection, trial monitoring, reporting and record keeping. The investigators must obtain patient informed consent, rigorously
follow the investigational plan and study protocol, control the disposition of investigational devices and comply with all reporting
and record keeping requirements. Clinical trials for Class III devices may not begin until the IDE application is approved by the FDA
and the appropriate institutional review boards, or IRBs, at the clinical trial sites. An IRB is an appropriately constituted group that
has been formally designated to review and monitor medical research involving subjects and which has the authority to approve, require
modifications in, or disapprove research to protect the rights, safety and welfare of human research subjects. The FDA or the IRB at
each site at which a clinical trial is being performed may withdraw approval of a clinical trial at any time for various reasons, including
a belief that the risks to study subjects outweigh the benefits or a failure to comply with FDA or IRB requirements. Even if a trial
is completed, there is no assurance that clinical testing will demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of Sigyn Therapy or other pipeline
devices.
Manufacturing
and Procurement
We
are advancing a manufacturing relationship with an FDA registered Contract Manufacturing Organization (CMO) to establish cGMPs compliant
manufacturing to support human clinical studies and potential commercialization should we receive clearance to market Sigyn Therapy.
We plan to establish manufacturing procedure specifications that define each stage of our manufacturing, inspection and testing processes
and the control parameters or acceptance criteria that apply to each activity that result in the production of our technology.
We
have also established relationships with industry vendors that provide components necessary to manufacture our device. Should the relationship
with an industry vendor be interrupted or discontinued, we believe that alternate component suppliers can be identified to support the
continued manufacturing of our product. However, delays related to interrupted or discontinued vendor relationships could adversely impact
our business.
Research
and Product Development
To
date, we have outsourced our research and product development activities, which include the performance of in vitro blood plasma
validation studies, animal studies, pre-cGMPs product assembly and manufacturing through third party organizations with experience in
advancing extracorporeal blood purification technologies. Our pre-clinical in vitro blood plasma studies we each performed under
an agreement with Innovative BioTherapies, Inc. (IBT) and our animal clinical studies were conducted by IBT team members through a contract
with the University of Michigan to utilize animal care, associated institutional review oversight, as well as surgical suite facilities
located within the North Campus Research Complex. While we maintain ownership rights to all study data collected by IBT, we do permit
for IBT to publish or present the results of our contracted studies. At present, we do not have plans to build and staff our own research
and product development facility.
Environmental
Laws and Regulations
At
present, our operations are not subject to any environmental laws or regulations.
Employees
As
of the date of this filing, we have 4 salaried employees, whose benefits include paid medical, dental, and vision coverage. We also provide
our employees with access to a 401(k) plan, and we anticipate the establishment of an employee equity-stock option plan during the 2023
calendar year. To maintain a manageable employee headcount, we utilize non-employee consultants to perform as-needed services and we
contract with third party research organizations to perform studies designed to support the potential clinical advancement of Sigyn Therapy.

Executive
Officers
Jim
Joyce. Mr. Joyce is a Co-founder of Sigyn Therapeutics and has served as Chairman and CEO of the Company since it was founded
in 2019. He has 30+ years of diverse public market experience, which includes two decades of public company CEO and Corporate Board leadership
roles. Previously, Mr. Joyce was the founder of Exosome Sciences, Inc., where he served as Executive Chairman from 2011 to 2018. Mr.
Joyce is also the founder, former Chairman and CEO of Aethlon Medical, a therapeutic device company that he navigated from a single shareholder
start-up to Nasdaq-traded Company with 8000+ shareholders.
While
employed at Aethlon from 1999 to 2018, Mr. Joyce oversaw the development of the Aethlon Hemopurifier, the first therapeutic candidate
to receive two “Breakthrough Device” designations from the FDA. Under his leadership, the Hemopurifier received FDA “Emergency
Use Authorization” (EAU) approval to treat Ebola virus and additionally was cleared to treat Ebola by the German Government and
Health Canada. Time Magazine named the Hemopurifier one of the “11 Most Remarkable Advances in Healthcare” and designated
the device to its “Top 25 Best Inventions” award list.
During
Mr. Joyce’s tenure, Aethlon won multiple Department of Defense (DOD) contract awards, a National Cancer Institute (NCI) contract
award and grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). He also led the completion of approximately $100 million of equity financings
and originated preclinical and clinical collaborations with more than twenty government and non-government institutes and organizations.
We
believe Mr. Joyce’s service as our Chief Executive Officer, his extensive experience in therapeutic device technologies, his prior
board service and his extensive public company background qualifies him to serve on our board of directors.
Craig
Roberts. Mr. Roberts is an inventor of therapeutic device technologies, which includes a Percutaneous Adult Extracorporeal Membrane
Oxygenation (ECMO) system that was licensed and subsequently sold to C.R. Bard. During the ongoing pandemic, ECMO has been broadly deployed
to treat critically ill COVID-19 patients. Additionally, Mr. Roberts is the inventor of the IMPACT System, which received CE Mark clearance
in the European Union and was subsequently registered in 32 countries and successfully deployed to treat cytokine storm related conditions,
including sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), acute liver failure, severe pneumonia and H5N1 bird flu virus infection.
Mr.
Roberts is a Co-founder of Sigyn Therapeutics and has been our Chief Technical Officer since it was founded in 2019. Prior to joining
the Company, Mr. Roberts served as a consultant for Aethlon Medical, Inc. from 2016 to 2019. Prior to Aethlon, Mr. Roberts was a founder,
Chief Technology Officer and Board Member of Hemolife Medical, Inc. We believe Mr. Roberts’s service as our Chief Technology Officer,
his extensive experience with therapeutic device technologies and his previous service as board of medical device company qualifies
him to serve on our board of directors.
Jeremy
Ferrell. Mr. Ferrell has more than 25 years of finance and operations leadership experience, with expertise in venture capital;
mergers and acquisitions; due diligence; initial public offerings; strategic alliance negotiation; and financial planning and reporting.
Mr. Ferrell has served as our CFO since March 2022. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Ferrell served as the CFO at Miku, Inc, from 2018
to 2022. Previously, he founded a Fractional CFO Services firm, where he served as CFO for various life sciences and technology companies,
including Singular Genomics, Inc., Aspen Neuroscience, Inc., and Hyduro, Inc. Before that, he served as Corporate Controller for ecoATM,
Inc., which was acquired by Outerwall, Inc. in 2013. Earlier in his career, Mr. Ferrell practiced as a certified public accountant. Mr.
Ferrell received his Bachelor of Science degree in Accountancy from Liberty University and his Master of Business Administration degree
in International Finance from the Thunderbird School of Global Management.
Non-Employee
Directors
Richa
Nand. Ms.Nand is a senior legal executive with more than 20 years of experience as an intellectual property (“IP”)
attorney and strategic business advisor for biotechnology and medical device companies. Ms. Nand is the founder of Insight Patents (for
which she has been a principal since 2014), a legal and consulting firm providing IP and transactional corporate services for the
life sciences industry. Ms. Nand previously served as Vice President of Corporate Development and Legal at Bird Rock Bio – a Johnson
& Johnson-backed biopharmaceutical company in San Diego – and Vice President of Intellectual Property and Licensing; Director
of Business Development; and In-House Patent Counsel at Cytori Therapeutics. Prior to law school, she was a biomedical researcher at
Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Beverly Hills, California. Ms. Nand received a Bachelor of Science degree in Microbiology and Molecular
Genetics from the University of California, Los Angeles, and a Juris Doctor degree from Boston University School of Law. The Company
believes Ms. Nand is qualified to sit on its Board due to her experience with medical device companies.
Jim
Dorst. Mr. Dorst has more than 30 years of senior management experience in finance, operations, planning and business transactions
at both private and public companies. He was most recently Director of Corporate Development at SYNNEX/Concentrix from July 2013 to
January 2021, where he was primarily responsible for mergers and acquisitions. Mr. Dorst was previously Chief Operating Officer (“COO”)
and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) at SpectraScience, Inc.; CFO of Aethlon Medical, Inc. and Vice President of Finance and
Operations for Verdisoft Corporation. In addition, he previously served as Senior Vice President of Finance and Administration at SeeCommerce;
CFO and COO of Omnis Technology Corp; and CFO and Senior Vice President of Information Technology at Savoir Technology Group, Inc. Mr.
Dorst practiced as a Certified Public Accountant with Coopers & Lybrand (now PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP); and holds a Master of Science
degree in Accounting and a Bachelor of Science degree in Finance from the University of Oregon. The Company believes Mr. Dorst is
qualified to sit on its Board due to his longstanding involvement with public companies.
Christopher
Wetzel. Mr. Wetzel has more than 25 years of leadership experience in various aspects of the healthcare delivery system and since
2004, has served as Chief Executive Officer for the Surgery Center at Hamilton in New Jersey. His career has focused on building organizations,

environment. Mr. Wetzel applied his broad background in strategy, finance, and operations to guide various entities starting new ventures,
entering new markets, and reengineering business processes. He is a long-term investor in the extracorporeal therapy space. Mr. Wetzel
received a Master of Business Administration degree in Healthcare Management and a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from Thomas
Jefferson University (formerly Philadelphia University). The Company believes Mr. Wetzel is qualified to sit on its Board due to his
decades of experience in the healthcare delivery system.
Conflicts
of Interest
Certain
potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between our officers and directors and us.
From
time to time, one or more of our affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and
unrelated to the type of business that we own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or
manage additional other businesses which may compete with our business with respect to operations, including financing and marketing,
management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us
and other businesses with which our affiliates are associated. Our affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities,
and neither we nor our shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.
We
may transact business with some of our officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of our officers, directors
or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons
or entities. We believe that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to us as those available from unrelated
third parties. As of this filing, we have not transacted business with any officer, director, or affiliate.
With
respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, we have adopted policies and procedures which require that:
(i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize
or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of our disinterested
outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by our directors.
Our
policies and procedures regarding transactions involving potential conflicts of interest are not in writing. We understand that it will
be difficult to enforce our policies and procedures and will rely and trust our officers and directors to follow our policies and procedures.
We will implement our policies and procedures by requiring the officer or director who is not in compliance with our policies and procedures
to remove himself and the other officers and directors will decide how to implement the policies and procedures, accordingly.
Corporate
Governance
The
Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable
disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in
other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.
Director
Independence
Our
board of directors consists of five members, with three independent directors in
accordance with NASDAQ listing rule 5605(a)(2) before we uplist via an amendment to this registration statement of which this prospectus
is a part. Because our common stock is not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we have used the definition of “independence”
of The NASDAQ Stock Market to make this determination. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director”
is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the
company’s board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of
a director. The NASDAQ listing rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:
| ● | the
director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an employee of the company; |
| ● | the
director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in
excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three years preceding
the independence determination (subject to certain exclusions, including, among other things,
compensation for board or board committee service); |
| ● | a
family member of the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an executive
officer of the company; |
| ● | the
director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling stockholder of,
or an executive officer of an entity to which the company made, or from which the company
received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of
the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is
greater (subject to certain exclusions); |
| ● | the
director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity
where, at any time during the past three years, any of the executive officers of the company
served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or |
| ● | the
director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside
auditor, or at any time during the past three years was a partner or employee of the company’s
outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit. |
Board
Composition
Our
business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors, which consists of five members. Directors serve
for a term of one year and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified.
Committees
of the Board
Our
Company currently does not have nominating, compensation, or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does our
Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. The Company plans to update its board committees to meet
NASDAQ requirements via an amendment to this registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
In
lieu of an audit committee, the Company’s board of directors is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning
the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company’s consolidated
financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The board of directors, the Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company review the Company’s internal accounting controls, practices and
policies.
The
Company maintains a Scientific Advisory Board (“SAB”) to assist our Board of Directors by reviewing and evaluating our clinical
development programs. We intend for our SAB members to receive per meeting fees and also be eligible to receive stock option compensation.
However, a formal SAB compensation plan has not yet been approved by our Board of Directors.
Audit
Committee Financial Expert
Mr.
Dorst qualifies as an “audit committee financial
expert” as defined in Item 407(D)(5) of Regulation S-K, and our three new directors qualify as “independent”
as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv)(B) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as defined by Rule
4200(a)(14) of the FINRA Rules.
We
believe that our directors are capable of analyzing and evaluating our consolidated financial statements and understanding internal controls
and procedures for financial reporting. The directors of our Company do not believe that it is necessary to have an audit committee because
management believes that the board of directors can adequately perform the functions of an audit committee. In addition, we believe that
retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome
and is not warranted in our circumstances given the stage of our development and the fact that we have not generated any positive cash
flows from operations to date.
Involvement
in Certain Legal Proceedings
Our
directors and our executive officers have not been involved in or a party in any of the following events or actions during the past ten
years:
| 1. | any
bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner
or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that
time; |
| 2. | any
conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding
traffic violations and other minor offenses); |
| 3. | being
subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated,
of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending
or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities;
or |
| 4. | being
found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities
law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated. |
| 5. | Such
person was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commission
to have violated any Federal or State securities law, and the judgment in such civil action
or finding by the Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended, or vacated; |
| 6. | Such
person was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission to have violated any Federal commodities law, and the judgment
in such civil action or finding by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission has not been
subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated; |
| 7. | Such
person was the subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative
order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating
to an alleged violation of: (I) Any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation;
or (ii) Any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including,
but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution,
civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition
order; or (iii) Any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection
with any business entity; or |
| 8. | Such
person was the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed,
suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26)
of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section
1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange,
association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons
associated with a member. |
Code
of Ethics
The
Company has not formally adopted a written Code of Ethics that governs the Company’s employees, officers and directors as the Company
is not required to do so. The board of directors evaluated the business of the Company and the number of employees and determined that
since the business is operated by a small number of persons, general rules of fiduciary duty and federal and state criminal, business
conduct and securities laws are adequate ethical guidelines. In the event our operations, employees and/or directors expand in the future,
we may take actions to adopt a formal Code of Ethics.
Role
of Board of Directors in Risk Oversight
Our
board of directors oversees an enterprise-wide approach to risk management, designed to support the achievement of business objectives,
including organizational and strategic objectives, to improve long-term organizational performance and enhance stockholder value. The
involvement of our board of directors in setting our business strategy is a key part of its assessment of management’s plans for
risk management and its determination of what constitutes an appropriate level of risk for our company. The participation of our board
of directors in our risk oversight process includes receiving regular reports from members of senior management on areas of material
risk to our company, including operational, financial, legal and regulatory, and strategic and reputational risks.
While
our board of directors has the ultimate responsibility for the risk management process, senior management and various committees of our
board of directors, when formed, will also have responsibility for certain areas of risk management. Our senior management team is responsible
for day-to-day risk management and regularly reports on risks to our full board of directors or a relevant committee. Our finance and
regulatory personnel serve as the primary monitoring and evaluation function for company-wide policies and procedures, and manage the
day-to-day oversight of the risk management strategy for our ongoing business. This oversight includes identifying, evaluating, and addressing
potential risks that may exist at the enterprise, strategic, financial, operational, compliance and reporting levels.
Director
Compensation
Our
Non-Employee directors receive a $30,000 annual retainer, paid in equal quarterly amounts for which periods the directors have provided
service.
The
Company does not currently have any equity compensation plans and there are no arrangements or plans in which we provide pension, retirement
or similar benefits for directors or executive officers. We have no material bonus or profit-sharing plans.
Limitation
on Liability and Indemnification Matters
Our
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers, and may indemnify our employees and
other agents, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits our Certificate of Incorporation
from limiting the liability of our directors for the following:
| ● | any
breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders; |
| | |
| ● | any
act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation
of law; |
| | |
| ● | unlawful
payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or |
| | |
| ● | any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. |
If
Delaware law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director, then the
liability of our directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as so amended. Our Certificate
of Incorporation does not eliminate a director’s duty of care and in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies, such as injunctive
or other forms of non-monetary relief, remain available under Delaware law. This provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities
under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or other state or federal laws. Under our bylaws, we will also be empowered
to purchase insurance on behalf of any person whom we are required or permitted to indemnify.
The
limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws may discourage shareholders from
bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation
against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our shareholders. A shareholder’s investment
may be harmed to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification
provisions. Insofar as we may provide indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act to our directors, officers, and
controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. There is no pending litigation or proceeding
naming any of our directors or officers as to which indemnification is being sought, nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation
that may result in claims for indemnification by any director or officer.

forward looking statements that are based on our current plans, considerations, expectations and determinations regarding future compensation
programs. Actual compensation programs that we adopt may differ materially from currently planned programs as summarized in this discussion.
As an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, we are not required to include a Compensation Discussion and
Analysis section and have elected to comply with the scaled disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies.

SECURITY
OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The
following table sets forth information relating to the beneficial ownership our common stock as of December 21, 2022 by
(i) each person known to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock and (ii) each of our directors
and executive officers. Unless otherwise noted below, we believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment

UNDERWRITING

Securities, LLC is acting as representative of the underwriters. Subject to the terms and conditions of an underwriting agreement between
us and the representative, we have agreed to sell to each underwriter named below, and each underwriter named below has severally agreed
to purchase, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, the number
of Class A Units listed next to its name in the following table:

The
underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the securities offered by
this prospectus are subject to various conditions and representations and warranties, including the approval of certain legal matters
by their counsel and other conditions specified in the underwriting agreement. The securities are offered by the underwriters, subject
to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them. The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify the offer
to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part. The underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all of the Class A Units and
Class B Units offered by this prospectus if any such Class A Units and/or Class B Units are taken, other than those shares of common
stock and/or Series A Warrants covered by the over-allotment option described below.
We
have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute
to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.
Over-Allotment
Option
We
have granted to the representative an option, exercisable one or more times in whole or in part, not later than 45 days after the
date of this prospectus, to purchase from us up to an (i) additional shares of our common stock at a price of $ per share and/or
(ii) additional Series A Warrants to purchase shares of common stock at a price of $0.01 per warrant (15% of the shares of common
stock and warrants included in the Class A Units and Class B Units sold in this offering), in each case, less the underwriting
discounts and commissions set forth on the cover of this prospectus in any combination thereof to cover over-allotments, if any. To
the extent that the representative exercises this option, each of the underwriters will become obligated, subject to conditions, to
purchase approximately the same percentage of these additional shares of common stock and/or Series A Warrants as the number of
Class A Units and Class B Units to be purchased by it in the above table bears to the total number of Class A Units and Class B
Units offered by this prospectus. We will be obligated, pursuant to the option, to sell these additional shares of common stock
and/or Series A Warrants to the underwriters to the extent the option is exercised. If any additional shares of common stock and/or
Series A Warrants are purchased, the underwriters will offer the additional shares of common stock and/or Series A Warrants on the
same terms as those on which the other Class A Units and Class B Units are being offered hereunder. If this option is exercised in
full, the total offering price to the public will be $ and the total net proceeds, before expenses and after the credit to the
underwriting commissions described below, to us will be $ .
Discounts
and Commissions
The
underwriters propose initially to offer the Class A Units and Class B Units to the public at the public offering price set forth on
the cover page of this prospectus and to dealers at those prices less a concession not in excess of $ per
Class A Unit and $____ per Class B Units. If all of the Class A Units
offered
by us are not sold at the public offering price, the underwriters may change the offering price and other selling terms by means of a
supplement to this prospectus.
The
following table shows the public offering price, underwriting discounts and commissions and proceeds before expenses to us. The information
assumes either no exercise or full exercise of the over-allotment option we granted to the representative of the underwriters.

The non-accountable expense allowance will not be payable with respect to representative’s exercise of the over-allotment
option.
We
have agreed to pay a non-accountable expense allowance to the representative of the underwriters equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds
received at the closing of the offering. The non-accountable expense allowance of 1.0% is not payable with respect to any Class A Units
and Class B Units sold upon exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse the representative
up to a maximum of $150,000 for out-of-pocket accountable expenses, including, but not limited to, travel, due diligence expenses, reasonable
fees and expenses of its legal counsel, accountable roadshow expenses, and background checks on our principal shareholders, directors
and officers.
Our
total estimated expenses of the offering, including registration, filing and listing fees, printing fees and legal and accounting expenses,
but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, are approximately $ .
Representative’s
Warrants
Upon
completion of this offering, we have agreed to issue to the representative as compensation warrants to purchase up to
shares of common stock (5.0% of the aggregate
number of shares of common stock sold in this offering inclusive of the over-allotment option (the “representative’s
warrants”). The representative’s warrants will be exercisable at a per share exercise price equal to 110% of the public
offering price per Class A Unit and Class B Unit in this offering. The representative’s warrants are exercisable at any time
and from time to time, in whole or in part, during the four and one half year period commencing 180 days following the commencement
of sales of the securities issued in this offering.
The
representative’s warrants have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to Rule
5110(e)(1)(A) of FINRA. The representative (or permitted assignees under Rule 5110(e)(2)) will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or
hypothecate these warrants or the securities underlying these warrants, nor will they engage in any hedging, short sale, derivative,
put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the warrants or the underlying securities for a period
of 180 days following the commencement of sales of the securities issued in this offering. In addition, the representative’s warrants
provide for registration rights upon request, in certain cases. The sole demand registration right provided will not be greater than
five years from the commencement of sales of the securities issued in this offering in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(C). The
piggyback registration rights provided will not be greater than seven years from the commencement of sales of the securities issued in
this offering in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(D). We will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities
issuable on exercise of the warrants other than underwriting commissions incurred and payable by the holders. The exercise price and
number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend
or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrant exercise price or underlying shares will not be
adjusted for issuances of shares of common stock at a price below the warrant exercise price.
Right
of First Refusal
We
have agreed to grant the representative, for the 9-month period following the closing of this offering, a right of first refusal to provide
investment banking services to us on an exclusive basis in all matters for which investment banking services are sought by us (the “Right
of First Refusal”), which right is exercisable in the representative’s sole discretion. In accordance FINRA Rule 5110(g)(6)(A),
such Right of First Refusal does not have a duration of more than three years from the commencement of sales of the public offering or
the termination date of the engagement between the us and the underwriters.
Lock-Up
Agreements
Pursuant
to “lock-up” agreements, we, our executive officers and directors, and certain stockholders, have agreed, without the prior
written consent of the representative not to directly or indirectly, offer to sell, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of
any of shares of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the transfer or disposition
by any person at any time in the future of) our common stock, enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to
another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of our common stock, make any demand for or
exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration
of any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock or any other securities
of ours or publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, subject to customary exceptions, for a period of six months after
the date of this prospectus in the case of our directors, executive officers, the Company and any successor of the Company and certain
stockholders.
Discretionary
Accounts
The
underwriters do not intend to confirm sales of the shares of common stock offered hereby to any accounts over which they have discretionary
authority.
Nasdaq
Capital Market Listing
We
intend to apply to have our common stock listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SIGY”. No assurance can be
given that our application will be approved by Nasdaq, and if not, we will not consummate this offering.
Determination
of Offering Price
The
public offering price of the Class A Units and Class B Units that we are offering was negotiated between us and the underwriters. Factors
considered in determining the public offering price of the Class A Units and Class B Units include the history and prospects of the Company,
the stage of development of our business, our business plans for the future and the extent to which they have been implemented, an assessment
of our management, general conditions of the securities markets at the time of the offering and such other factors as were deemed relevant.
Price
Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids
In
connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of
our common stock and Series A Warrants. Specifically, the underwriters may over-allot in connection with this offering by selling more
shares of common stock and/or Series A Warrants than are set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. This creates a short position
in our common stock or Series A Warrants for its own account. The short position may be either a covered short position or a naked short
position. In a covered short position, the number of shares of common stock and/or Series A Warrants over-allotted by the underwriters
is not greater than the number of shares of common stock and/or Series A Warrants that they may purchase in the over-allotment option.
In a naked short position, the number of shares of common stock and/or Series A Warrants involved is greater than the number of shares
common stock in the over-allotment option. To close out a short position, the underwriters may elect to exercise all or part of the over-allotment
option. The underwriters may also elect to stabilize the price of our common stock and/or Series A Warrants or reduce any short position
by bidding for, and purchasing, common stock and/or Series A Warrants in the open market.
The
underwriters may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter or dealer repays selling concessions allowed to
it for distributing securities in this offering because the underwriter repurchases the securities in stabilizing or short covering transactions.
Finally,
the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, securities in market making transactions, including “passive” market making transactions
as described below.
These
activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of our common stock and/or Series A Warrants at a price that is higher than the
price that might otherwise exist in the absence of these activities. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities,
and may discontinue any of these activities at any time without notice. These transactions may be effected on the national securities
exchange on which our shares of common stock are traded, in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise.
Indemnification
We
have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against liabilities relating to this offering arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act, liabilities arising from breaches of some or all of the representations and warranties contained in the underwriting agreement,
and to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make for these liabilities.
Affiliations
The
underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include
securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment,
hedging, financing and brokerage activities. The underwriters and their affiliates may from time to time in the future engage with us
and perform services for us or in the ordinary course of their business for which they will receive customary fees and expenses. In the
ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array
of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including
bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve
securities and/or instruments of us. The underwriters and their respective affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or
publish or express independent research views in respect of these securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to
clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in these securities and instruments.
Conflicts
of Interest
We
are not under any contractual obligation to engage any of the underwriters to provide any services for us after this offering and have
no present intent to do so. However, any of the underwriters may introduce us to potential target businesses or assist us in raising
additional capital in the future. If any of the underwriters provide services to us after this offering, we may pay such underwriter
fair and reasonable fees that would be determined at that time in an arm’s length negotiation; provided that no agreement will
be entered into with any of the underwriters and no fees for such services will be paid to any of the underwriters prior to the date
that is 90 days from the date of this prospectus, unless FINRA determines that such payment would not be deemed underwriter’s compensation
in connection with this offering and we may pay the underwriters of this offering or any entity with which they are affiliated a finder’s
fee or other compensation for services rendered to us in connection with the completion of a business combination.

DESCRIPTION
OF SECURITIES
The
following description of our capital stock is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation,
which has been filed as an exhibit to our registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
Common
Stock
We
are authorized to issue 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, of which 38,263,813 shares are issued and outstanding
as of April __, 2023. Each holder of shares of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters
submitted to the vote of stockholders, including the election of Directors. The holders of shares of common stock have no pre-emptive,
conversion, subscription or cumulative voting rights. There is no provision in our Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws that would
delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of our Company.
Choice
of Forum. The Certificate of Incorporation provides that, unless our Board consents to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery
in the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought by or on our behalf;
(ii) any direct action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors or officers pursuant to any of the provisions of the DGCL,
our Certificate of Incorporation or our Certificate of Incorporation; (iii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duties
owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees to our stockholders; or (iv) any action asserting a violation of Delaware decisional
law relating to our internal affairs. This provision does not apply to (a) actions in which the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware
concludes that an indispensable party is not subject to the jurisdiction of Delaware courts, or (b) actions in which a federal court
has assumed exclusive jurisdiction to a proceeding. This provision is not intended to apply to any actions brought under the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any
duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision will
not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts
have exclusive jurisdiction. There is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this provision with respect to claims under the
Securities Act. However, the Certificate of Incorporation does not relieve us of our duties to comply with federal securities laws and
the rules and regulations thereunder, and our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with these laws, rules and
regulations. The Certificate of Incorporation also provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest
in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of and consented to this choice of forum provision.
This
choice of forum provision may impose additional litigation costs on stockholders in pursuing such claims, particularly if the stockholders
do not reside in or near the State of Delaware. Additionally, this choice of forum provision may limit our stockholders’ ability
to bring a claim in a judicial forum that they find favorable for disputes, which may discourage the filing of such lawsuits.
Securities
Offered in this Offering
We
are offering ______ Class A Units, each unit consisting of one share of our common stock and one Series A Warrant to purchase one
share of our common stock and Class B Units, each consisting of Series B Preferred Stock and one Series A Warrant. The share
of common stock and accompanying Series A Warrants included in each Class A Unit will be issued separately and the share of Series B
Preferred Stock and accompanying Series A Warrant will be issued separately. Class A Units and Class B Units will not be issued or
certificated. We are also registering the shares of common stock included in the Class A Units and the shares of common stock
issuable from time to time upon exercise of the Series A Warrants included in the Class A Units and Class B Units and Series B
Preferred Stock offered hereby. The description of our common stock is set forth above under the heading “—Common
Stock.”
Series
B Preferred Stock Issued in this Offering
Our
board of directors shall have designated _____ shares of our preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock, none of which are
currently issued and outstanding. The preferences and rights of the Series B Preferred Stock will be as set forth in a
Certificate of Designation (the “Series B Certificate of Designation”) filed as an exhibit to the registration statement
of which this prospectus is a part.
Pursuant
to a transfer agency agreement between us and Equity Stock Transfer, as transfer agent, the Series B Preferred Stock will be issued in
book-entry form and shall initially be represented only by one or more global certificates deposited with The Depository Trust Company,
or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC.
In
the event of a liquidation, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to participate on an as-converted-to-Common Stock basis
with holders of the Common Stock in any distribution of assets of the Company to the holders of the Common Stock. The Series B Certificate
of Designation provides, among other things, that we shall not pay any dividends on shares of Common Stock (other than dividends in the
form of Common Stock) unless and until such time as we pay dividends on each share of Series B Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis.
Other than as set forth in the previous sentence, the Series B Certificate of Designation provides that no other dividends shall be paid
on Series B Preferred Stock.
With
certain exceptions, as described in the Series B Certificate of Designation, the Series B Preferred Stock have no voting rights. However,
as long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Series B Certificate of Designation provides that we shall
not, without the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Series B Preferred Stock, (a) alter or change adversely
the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series B Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Series B Certificate of Designation, (b)
increase the number of authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock or (c) amend our certificate of incorporation in any manner that
adversely affects the rights of holders of Series B Preferred Stock.
Each
Series B preferred share is convertible at any time at the holder’s option into a number of shares of common stock equal to $5,000
divided by the Series B Conversion Price. The “Series B Conversion Price” is initially $ and is subject to adjustment for
stock splits, stock dividends, distributions, subdivisions and combinations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Series B Certificate
of Designation further provides that we shall not effect any conversion of Series B Preferred Stock, with certain exceptions, to the
extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion, the holder of Series B Preferred Stock (together with such holder’s
affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) would beneficially
own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the shares of our Common Stock
then outstanding after giving effect to such exercise (the “preferred stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided,
however, that upon notice to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease the preferred stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided
that in no event shall the preferred stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation exceed 9.99% and any increase in the preferred stock Beneficial
Ownership Limitation will not be effective until 61 days following notice of such increase from the holder to us.
The
Series B preferred shares contain price protection so that if any offering is made of our Common Stock or common stock equivalents at
a price per share lower than the offering price per share in this offering, the conversion price of the Series B Preferred shares will
automatically be reduced to the lower price per share. The Series B preferred shares also contain a blocker provision at 9.99% of the
issues and outstanding shares, and the Certificate of Designation for the Series B preferred shares may not be amended without the consent
of 75% of the then issued and outstanding Series B preferred shares.
We
do not intend to apply for listing of the Series B Preferred Stock on any securities exchange or other trading system.
Series
A Warrants
The
following summary of certain terms and provisions of the Series A Warrants offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified
in its entirety by the provisions of the form of Series A Warrant, which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which
this prospectus is a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions set forth in the form of Series A Warrant.
We do not have a price as of yet so we cannot disclose the amounts of warrants outstanding following the offering, and none were available
pre-offering. The exercise price is 110% of the offering price per Class A Unit for the Series A Warrants.
Exercisability.
The Series A Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and at any time up to the date that is five years
after their original issuance. The Series A Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering
to us a duly executed exercise notice and, at any time a registration statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock
underlying the Series A Warrants under the Securities Act is effective and available for the issuance of such shares, or an exemption
from registration under the Securities Act is available for the issuance of such shares, by payment in full in immediately available
funds for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon such exercise. If a registration statement registering the issuance of
the shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrants under the Securities Act is not effective or available and an exemption from
registration under the Securities Act is not available for the issuance of such shares, the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect
to exercise the warrant through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares
of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Series A Warrant. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued
in connection with the exercise of a Series A Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay the holder an amount in cash equal to
the fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price.
Exercise
Limitation. A holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of the Series A Warrant if the holder (together with its affiliates)
would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to
the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Series A Warrants.
Exercise
Price. The exercise price per whole share of common stock purchasable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants is $___ per share or
110% of the public offering price of the Class A Units. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain
stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our common stock and
also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our stockholders.
Transferability.
Subject to applicable laws, the Series A Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.
Exchange
Listing. There is no established trading market for the Series A Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition,
we do not intend to apply for the listing of the Series A Warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without
an active trading market, the liquidity of the Series A Warrants will be limited.
Warrant
Agent. The Series A Warrants will be issued in registered form under a warrant agency agreement between VStock Transfer, LLC, as
warrant agent, and us. The Series A Warrants shall initially be represented only by one or more global warrants deposited with the warrant
agent, as custodian on behalf of The Depository Trust Company (DTC) and registered in the name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or
as otherwise directed by DTC.
Fundamental
Transactions. In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Series A Warrants and generally including any reorganization,
recapitalization or reclassification of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our
properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding common
stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding common stock, the
holders of the warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Series A Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or
other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.
Rights
as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common
stock, the holder of a Series A Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our common stock, including any voting
rights, until the holder exercises the Series A Warrant.

proceeds totaling $400,000. For each share purchased, the investor received a five-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock
at $1.25 per share.
On
October 22, 2021, in exchange for the extension of Notes, the Company issued a noteholder five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate
of 450,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share
Security
Holders
As
of August 15, 2022, there were 37,295,813 common shares issued and outstanding, which were held by approximately 72 stockholders of record.
We do not know the number of our beneficial shareholders or shareholders holding shares through their broker(s) in “street name.”
Non-cumulative
Voting
Holders
of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding
shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in such event, the
holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors.

SHARES
ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Prior
to this offering, there was a limited public market for our common stock as we trade sporadically on the OTCQB® Venture Market. We
cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares of our common stock
for sale will have on the market price of our common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market could
adversely affect the market prices of our common stock and could impair our future ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity
securities.
We
have an aggregate of 37,295,803 shares of our common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2021 (prior to the Offering). All of the xx,000
shares to be registered in this Offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act,
unless those shares are purchased by our affiliates, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
Rule
144
Rule
144 allows for the public resale of restricted and control securities if a number of conditions are met. Meeting the conditions includes
holding the shares for a certain period of time, having adequate current information, looking into a trading volume formula, and filing
a notice of the proposed sale with the SEC.
In
general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell
their securities provided that (I) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during
the 90 days preceding, a sale, (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements and have filed all required reports
for a least 90 days before the sale, and (iii) we are not and have never been a shell company (a company having no or nominal operations
and either (1) no or nominal assets, (2) assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, or (3) assets consisting of any amount
of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets). If we ever become a shell company, Rule 144 would be unavailable until one year
following the date we cease to be a shell company and file Form 10 information with the SEC ceasing to be a shell company, provided that
we are then subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and have filed all reports and other materials
required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that we were
required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports.
Persons
who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of,
or any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled
to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following:
| ● | 1%
of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding, which would equal approximately
388,000 shares, based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of December
31, 2021 (37,295,803), and assuming the 1,500,000 shares being registered in the Offering
are issued and sold; or |
| ● | The
average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding
the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale. |
At
the expiration of the one-year holding period, a person who was not one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding
a sale would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock without restriction. A person who was one of our affiliates
at any time during the three months preceding a sale would remain subject to the volume restrictions described above.
Sales
under the Rule 144 by our affiliates or persons selling shares on behalf of our affiliates are also subject to certain manner of sale
provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of
Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets of Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
changes in shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively
referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years
in the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Company’s Ability to Continue as a
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the
Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, has a net capital deficiency, and negative cash flows from operating activities,
therefore, the Company has stated that substantial doubt exists about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans
in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are
a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required
to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards
of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform,
an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal
control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond
to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are
matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the
audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially
challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the
financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions
on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Going Concern
As described further in Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements, the Company has incurred losses each year from inception through December 31, 2022 and expects to incur additional
losses in the future.
We determined the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern is a critical audit matter due to the estimation and uncertainty regarding the Company’s future cash flows and
the risk of bias in management’s judgments and assumptions in estimating these cash flows.
Our audit procedures related to the Company’s
assertion on its ability to continue as a going concern included the following, among others:
We reviewed the Company’s working capital and
liquidity ratios and forecasted revenue, operating expenses, and uses and sources of cash used in management’s assessment of whether
the Company has sufficient liquidity to fund operations for at least one year from the financial statement issuance date. This testing
included inquiries with management, comparison of prior period forecasts to actual results, consideration of positive and negative evidence
impacting management’s forecasts, the Company’s financing arrangements in place as of the report date, market and industry
factors and consideration of the Company’s relationships with its financing partners.

NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
Corporate
History and Background
Sigyn
Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sigyn”, the “Company”, “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a development-stage
company focused on creating therapeutic solutions that address unmet needs in global health.
Sigyn
Therapy™, our lead product candidate, is a broad-spectrum blood purification technology designed to treat pathogen-associated inflammatory
disorders that are not addressed with approved drug therapies. Candidate treatment indications include endotoxemia and inflammation in
end-stage renal disease (dialysis) patients, sepsis (a leading cause of hospital deaths), community acquired pneumonia (a leading cause
of death among infectious diseases), and emerging pandemic threats.
Our
development pipeline includes a cancer treatment system comprised of ChemoPrep™ to enhance the tumor site delivery of chemotherapy,
and ChemoPure™ to reduce treatment toxicity and inhibit the spread of cancer metastasis.
Merger
Transaction
On
October 19, 2020, Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”) formerly known as Reign Resources Corporation,
completed a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc., a private entity incorporated in the
State of Delaware on October 19, 2019.
In
the Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of privately held Sigyn Therapeutics common stock
in exchange for 75% of the fully paid and nonassessable shares of our common stock outstanding (the “Acquisition”). In conjunction
with the transaction, we changed our name from Reign Resources Corporation to Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. pursuant to an amendment to our
articles of incorporation that was filed with the State of Delaware. Subsequently, our trading symbol was changed to SIGY. The Acquisition
was treated by the Company as a reverse merger in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“GAAP”). For accounting purposes, Sigyn is considered to have acquired Reign Resources Corporation as the accounting acquirer
because: (i) Sigyn stockholders own 75% of the combined company, on an as-converted basis, immediately following the Closing Date, (ii)
Sigyn directors hold a majority of board seats in the combined company and (iii) Sigyn management held all key positions in the management
of the combined company. Accordingly, Sigyn’s historical results of operations will replace Reign Resources Corporation’s
historical results of operations for all periods prior to the Acquisition and, for all periods following the Acquisition, the results
of operations of the combined company will be included in the Company’s financial statements. The
Acquisition was treated as a “tax-free exchange” under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and resulted in the
private Sigyn Therapeutics corporate entity (established on October 29, 2019) to become a wholly owned subsidiary of Reign Resources
Corporation. Among the conditions for closing the acquisition, the Reign Resources Corporation extinguished all previously reported liabilities,
its preferred class of shares, and all stock purchase options. As a result, the reported liabilities totaling $3,429,516 were converted
into a total of 7,907,351 common shares. Additionally, assets held on the books of Reign Resources
Corporation, such as Gem inventory, was kept in the Company and therefore recorded as assets on the Share Exchange date. Upon
the closing of the Acquisition, we appointed James A. Joyce and Craig P. Roberts to serve as members of our Board of Directors.
As
of March 31, 2023, we have a total 42,713,325 shares issued and outstanding, of which 17,073,325 shares are held by non-affiliate stockholders.
NOTE
2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations
for the periods presented.
The
Company currently operates in one business segment. The Company is not organized by market and is managed and operated as one business.
A single management team reports to the chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, who comprehensively manages the
entire business. The Company does not currently operate any separate lines of businesses or separate business entities.
Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among
other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated
deficit of $7,195,576 at December 31, 2022, had a working capital deficit of approximately $1,978,396 at December 31, 2022, had net losses
of $2,929,817 and $3,004,619 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and net cash used in operating activities
of $1,830,242 and $1,774,182 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with no revenue earned since inception, and
a lack of operational history. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
While
the Company is attempting to expand operations and increase revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be significant enough
to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public offering or an asset
sale transaction. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues
provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While management believes in the viability of its strategy to
generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds or transact an asset sale, there can be no assurances to that effect or
on terms acceptable to the Company. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability
to further implement its business plan and generate revenues.
The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This
summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements.
The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and
objectivity. These accounting policies conform to GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reported
periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The more significant
estimates and assumptions by management include among others: common stock valuation, and the recoverability of intangibles. The current
economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.
Cash
The
Company’s cash is held in bank accounts in the United States and is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)
up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any cash losses.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are accounted for under an asset and liability approach. This process involves calculating the temporary and permanent differences
between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which would be recorded on the Balance Sheets in accordance
with ASC 740, which established financial accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The likelihood that its
deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income must be assessed and, to the extent that recovery is not likely, a valuation
allowance is established. Changes in the valuation allowance in a period are recorded through the income tax provision in the consolidated
Statements of Operations.
ASC
740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s consolidated financial statements and
prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to
be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized
at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax
position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, ASC 740-10 provides guidance on
derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the implementation
of ASC 740-10 and currently, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits.
Advertising
and Marketing Costs
Advertising
expenses are recorded as general and administrative expenses when they are incurred. The Company had $457 of advertising expenses for
the year ended December 31, 2022 and had no advertising expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Research
and Development
All
research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development expense of $657,657 and $734,014
for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Inventories
In
conjunction with the October 19, 2020 Share Exchange Agreement, the Company kept the gem inventory of Reign Resources Corporation. Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value) on a lot basis each quarter. A lot is determined by the cut, clarity,
size, and weight of the sapphires. Inventory consists of sapphire jewels that meet rigorous grading criteria and are of cuts and sizes
most commonly used in the jewelry industry. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company carried primarily loose sapphire jewels, jewelry
for sale on our website, and jewelry held as samples. Samples are used to show potential customers what the jewelry would look like.
Promotional items given to customers that are not expected to be returned will be removed from inventory and expensed. There have been
no promotional items given to customers as of December 31, 2022. The Company performs its own in-house assessment based on gem guide
and the current market price for metals to value its inventory on an annual basis or if circumstances dictate sooner to determine if
the estimated fair value is greater or less than cost. In addition, the inventory is reviewed each quarter by the Company against industry
prices from gem-guide and if there is a potential impairment, the Company would appraise the inventory. The estimated fair value is subject
to significant change due to changes in popularity of cut, perceived grade of the clarity of the sapphires, the number, type and size
of inclusions, the availability of other similar quality and size sapphires, and other factors. As a result, the internal assessed value
of the sapphires could be significantly lower from the current estimated fair value. Loose sapphire jewels do not degrade in quality
over time.
Based
on the significant advancement of Sigyn Therapy, the Company decided in the 4th quarter of 2021 to assess the value of retail
business operations that were a focus of the Company prior to the merger transaction consummated on October 19, 2020.
Related
to this assessment, management determined the wholesale liquidation value of its sapphire gem inventory to be 5-10% of the previously
reported retail value, based on communications with certified gemologists, the variance between retail and wholesale valuations, and
current market conditions. As a result, the Company has valued the inventory at $50,000 and recorded an impairment of assets of $536,047
in the year ended December 31, 2021.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally
five years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets
are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are
included in income in the year of disposition.
Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets consist primarily of website development costs. Our intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period
of three years.
Impairment
of Long-lived Assets
We
periodically evaluate whether the carrying value of property, equipment and intangible assets has been impaired when circumstances indicate
the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable. The carrying amount is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the carrying value is not recoverable, the impairment
loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value.
Our
impairment analyses require management to apply judgment in estimating future cash flows as well as asset fair values, including forecasting
useful lives of the assets, assessing the probability of different outcomes, and selecting the discount rate that reflects the risk inherent
in future cash flows. If the carrying value is not recoverable, we assess the fair value of long-lived assets using commonly accepted
techniques, and may use more than one method, including, but not limited to, recent third-party comparable sales and discounted cash
flow models. If actual results are not consistent with our assumptions and estimates, or our assumptions and estimates change due to
new information, we may be exposed to an impairment charge in the future. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had not experienced
impairment losses on its long-lived assets.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
provisions of accounting guidance, FASB Topic ASC 825 requires all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both
assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, and defines
fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing
parties. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the fair value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximated
carrying value due to the short maturity of the instruments, quoted market prices or interest rates which fluctuate with market rates.
Fair
Value Measurements
Fair
value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal
or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable,
as follows:
|
● |
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 by observable 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 measurement of the fair value of the assets
or liabilities |
The
carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial
assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. There
were no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and
liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. There
have been no transfers between levels.
Debt
The
Company issues debt that may have separate warrants, conversion features, or no equity-linked attributes.
Embedded
Conversion Features
The
Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, to determine whether
the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with
changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument
is evaluated under ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.
Derivative
Financial Instruments
The
Company evaluates all of it financial instruments, including stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives
or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities,
the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair
value reported as charges or credits to income.
For
option-based simple derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulations to value the derivative instruments
at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should
be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. There were no derivative financial instruments
as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and no charges or credits to income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Debt
Issue Costs and Debt Discount
The
Company may record debt issue costs and/or debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt. These costs
may be paid in the form of cash or equity (such as warrants). These costs are amortized to interest expense through the maturity of the
debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs prior to maturity a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately
expensed. Any unamortized debt issue costs and debt discount are presented net of the related debt on the consolidated balance sheets.
Original
Issue Discount
For
certain convertible debt issued, the Company may provide the debt holder with an original issue discount. The original issue discount
would be recorded to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note and is amortized to interest expense through the maturity of
the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs prior to maturity a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately
expensed. Any unamortized original issue discounts are presented net of the related debt on the consolidated balance sheets.
If
the conversion feature does not qualify for either the derivative treatment or as a BCF, the convertible debt is treated as traditional
debt.
Basic
and diluted earnings per share
Basic
net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period,
without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed on the basis of the weighted average
number of common shares (including common stock subject to redemption) plus dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the reporting
period. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents,
because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
Basic
and diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same since net losses for all periods presented and including the additional potential
common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.
Stock
Based Compensation
In
accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), we measure the compensation costs
of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over
the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted
share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured
on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the
option grant.
Non-Employee
Stock-Based Compensation
In
accordance with ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, issuances of the Company’s common stock or warrants for
acquiring goods or services are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments
issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued to consultants
or vendors is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instruments is reached
(a “performance commitment” which would include a penalty considered to be of a magnitude that is a sufficiently large disincentive
for nonperformance) or (ii) the date at which performance is complete. Although situations may arise in which counter performance may
be required over a period of time, the equity award granted to the party performing the service is fully vested and non-forfeitable on
the date of the agreement. As a result, in this situation in which vesting periods do not exist as the instruments fully vested on the
date of agreement, the Company determines such date to be the measurement date and will record the estimated fair market value of the
instruments granted as a prepaid expense and amortize such amount to general and administrative expense in the accompanying statement
of operations over the contract period. When it is appropriate for the Company to recognize the cost of a transaction during financial
reporting periods prior to the measurement date, for purposes of recognition of costs during those periods, the equity instrument is
measured at the then-current fair values at each of those interim financial reporting dates.
Reclassifications
An
adjustment has been made to the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2021, to reclass $1,072 of other current liabilities previously
classified in accrued payroll and payroll taxes. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
Concentrations,
Risks, and Uncertainties
Business
Risk
Substantial
business risks and uncertainties are inherent to an entity, including the potential risk of business failure.
The
Company is headquartered and operates in the United States. To date, the Company has generated no revenues from operations. There can
be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital and failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on
the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Also, the success of the Company’s operations is
subject to numerous contingencies, some of which are beyond management’s control. Currently, these contingencies include general
economic conditions, price of components, competition, and governmental and political conditions.
Interest
rate risk
Financial
assets and liabilities do not have material interest rate risk.
Credit
risk
The
Company is exposed to credit risk from its cash in banks. The credit risk on cash in banks is limited because the counterparties are
recognized financial institutions.
Seasonality
The
business is not subject to substantial seasonal fluctuations.
Major
Suppliers
Sigyn
Therapy is comprised of components that are supplied by various industry vendors. Additionally, the Company is reliant on third-party
organizations to conduct clinical development studies that are necessary to advance Sigyn Therapy toward the marketplace.
Should
the relationship with an industry vendor or third-party clinical development organization be interrupted or discontinued, it is believed
that alternate component suppliers and third-party clinical development organizations could be identified to support the continued advancement
of Sigyn Therapy.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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 accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP.
The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and
it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06 in the first quarter
of fiscal 2021, coinciding with the standard’s effective date, and had an immaterial impact from this standard.
Other
recently issued accounting updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE
8 – OPERATING LEASES
On
May 27, 2021, the Company entered into a sixty-three month lease for its corporate office at $5,955 per month commencing June 15, 2021
maturing September 30, 2026. The Company accounts for this lease in accordance with ASC 842. Adoption
of the standard resulted in the initial recognition of operating lease ROU asset of $290,827 and
operating lease liability of $290,827 as of June 15, 2021.
Operating
lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease
payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent
our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily
determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s
incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The operating lease
ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our variable lease payments primarily consist of maintenance
and other operating expenses from our real estate leases. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities
and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Our lease terms may include options to extend
or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
We
have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. We have elected to account for these lease and non-lease components as a single
lease component. We are also electing not to apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases of twelve months or less and instead
will recognize lease payments as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The
components of lease expense and supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the period are as follows:
In
accordance with ASC 842, the components of lease expense were as follows:

NOTE
10 – INCOME TAXES
At
December 31, 2021, net operating loss carry forwards for Federal and state income tax purposes totaling approximately $1,408,000 available
to reduce future income which under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2018, allows for an indefinite carryforward period, with carryforwards
limited to 80% of each subsequent year’s net income. There is no income tax affect due to the recognition of a full valuation allowance
on the expected tax benefits of future loss carry forwards based on uncertainty surrounding realization of such assets.
A
reconciliation of the statutory income tax rates and the effective tax rate is as follows:

NOTE
11 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
FASB
ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings
(loss) per share (EPS) computations.
Basic
earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the
denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares
had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number
of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
The
following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because the effects were anti-dilutive
based on the application of the treasury stock method and because the Company incurred net losses during the period:

ITEM
17. UNDERTAKINGS
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to:
(1)
|
File,
during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to: |
|
(I)
|
Include
any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; |
|
|
|
|
(ii)
|
Reflect
in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate,
the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
“Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; |
|
(iii)
|
Include
any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution. |
(2)
|
For
determining liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering. |
|
|
(3)
|
File
a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering. |
|
|
(4)
|
For
determining liability of the undersigned registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the
securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant
to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities
are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller
to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: |
|
(i)
|
Any
preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule
424; |
|
|
|
|
(ii)
|
Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by
the undersigned registrant; |
|
|
|
|
(iii)
|
The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant
or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and |
|
|
|
|
(iv)
|
Any
other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. |
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriter at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates
in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriter to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer,
or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification
by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1)
For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed
as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant
to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time
it was declared effective.
(2)
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this Amendment No. 5 to Registration Statement
to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
