Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Operating Expenses: For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, total operating expenses were $6.58 million, a slight increase from $6.46 million in the prior year period.
  • General & Administrative (G&A): Decreased by 7% ($4.01M vs $4.33M) due to lower director fees and stock compensation, partially offset by increased marketing expenses.
  • Research & Development (R&D): Increased by 29% ($2.41M vs $1.87M) driven by higher consulting fees and the absence of a prior-year Australian R&D tax incentive gain.
• Equity Transactions: The company significantly increased its share count through multiple financing activities:
  • Completed a public offering in February 2025 raising net proceeds of $4.24 million.
  • Executed an "Inducement Warrant Transaction" in September 2025, reducing the exercise price of existing warrants to $10.98 and issuing new warrants. This generated $2.22 million in gross proceeds but resulted in a $1.51 million deemed dividend, significantly increasing the net loss attributable to shareholders.
  • Utilized an At-The-Market (ATM) agreement to raise an additional $1.64 million.
• Stock Splits: The company effected a 1-for-15 reverse stock split in January 2025 and a 1-for-12 reverse stock split in October 2025 to maintain Nasdaq compliance.

Guidance, Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items

• Going Concern Warning: Management has concluded there is substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the filing date. Current cash of $3.76 million is insufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months. The company plans to raise additional capital through equity or debt financings.
• Nasdaq Compliance: The company received deficiency notices regarding minimum stockholders' equity and minimum bid price. It regained compliance with the bid price requirement following the October 2025 reverse stock split and regained conditional compliance with the equity requirement following the inducement warrant transaction.
• Unusual Items: The Q3 2025 net loss attributable to shareholders was heavily impacted by a non-cash $1.51 million deemed dividend related to the modification of warrant terms (Inducement Warrant Transaction).
• Internal Controls: The company disclosed that its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2025, due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, specifically regarding segregation of duties.
• Pipeline Update: The company is advancing EB-003 into formal preclinical studies for an Investigational New Drug (IND) filing. It also unveiled the EVM401 Series to broaden its pipeline.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Verify the sufficiency of the $3.76 million cash balance against the disclosed operating burn rate and the timeline for the next financing round.
• Review the terms of the "Inducement Warrants" (Series C and D) and the requirement for stockholder approval before these can be exercised.
• Confirm the status of the remediation plan for the material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting.
• Monitor the progress of the EB-003 preclinical studies and the timeline for the planned IND filing.
• Assess the dilution impact of the outstanding 505,887 warrants and 22,835 unvested RSUs.
