NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2024
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
Propanc Biopharma, Inc. (the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") is based in Camberwell, Victoria Australia. Since its inception, substantially all of the operations of the Company have been focused on the development of new cancer treatments targeting high-risk patients, particularly cancer survivors, who need a follow-up, non-toxic, long-term therapy designed to prevent the cancer from returning and spreading. The Company anticipates establishing global markets for its technologies. Our lead product candidate, which we refer to as PRP, is an enhanced pro-enzyme formulation designed to enhance the anti-cancer effects of multiple enzymes acting synergistically. It is currently in the preclinical phase of development.
The Company was originally formed in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia on October 15, 2007 as Propanc PTY LTD. On November 23, 2010, Propanc Health Group Corporation was incorporated in the State of Delaware, and in January 2011, to reorganize the Company, all of the outstanding shares of Propanc PTY LTD were acquired on a one-for-one basis by Propanc Health Group Corporation, with Propanc PTY LTD becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
On July 22, 2016, the Company formed another wholly-owned subsidiary, Propanc (UK) Limited under the laws of England and Wales for the purpose of submitting an orphan drug application to the European Medicines Agency as a small and medium-sized enterprise. As of September 30, 2024, there has been no activity within this entity.
Effective April 20, 2017, the Company changed its name to "Propanc Biopharma, Inc." to reflect the Company's stage of operations and development better.
In July 2020, a world-first patent was granted in Australia for the cancer treatment method patent family. Presently, there are 84 granted, allowed, or accepted patents and 6 patents filed, or under examination in key global jurisdictions relating to the use of proenzymes against solid tumors, covering the lead product candidate PRP.
On May 1, 2023, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its certificate of incorporation, as amended, to effect a one-for-one thousand (1:1,000)Reverse Stock Split (the "Reverse Stock Split"), effective as of May 1, 2023. Proportional adjustments for the Reverse Stock Split were made to the Company's outstanding stock options, warrants and equity incentive plans. All share and per-share data and amounts have been retroactively adjusted as of the earliest period presented in the consolidated financial statements to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.
The Company hopes to capture and protect additional patentable subject matter based on the Company's field of technology relating to pharmaceutical compositions of proenzymes for treating cancer by filing additional patent applications as it advances its lead product candidate, PRP, through various stages of development.
Basis of Presentation
The Company's interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Quarterly Report") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications and non-recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and our consolidated financial position at September 30, 2024 have been made. The Company's results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the Company's annual audited consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted from the Company's interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The June 30, 2024 balance sheet is derived from those statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Propanc Biopharma, Inc., the parent entity, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Propanc PTY LTD. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Propanc (UK) Limited was an inactive wholly-owned subsidiary through September 30, 2024 and still remains inactive.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the estimates of useful lives of long-lived assets, valuation of the collectability of a refundable advance deposit, present value of the operating lease liability and related right-of-use asset, valuation of derivatives, valuation of equity based instruments issued for other than cash, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and foreign currency translation due to certain average exchange rates applied in lieu of spot rates on transaction dates.

Foreign Currency Translation and Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary's functional currency is the Australian dollar (AUD). For financial reporting purposes, the Australian dollar has been translated into the Company's reporting currency, which is the United States dollar ($) and/or (USD). Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Equity transactions are translated at each historical transaction date spot rate. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders' equity (deficit) as "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)." Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translations are included in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). There have been no significant fluctuations in the exchange rate for the conversion of Australian dollars to USD after the balance sheet date.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for all periods presented includes only foreign currency translation gains (losses).
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the consolidated balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency included in the consolidated results of operations as incurred. Effective fiscal year 2021, the parent company determined that the intercompany loans will not be repaid in the foreseeable future and thus, per Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 830-20-35-3, gains and losses from measuring the intercompany balances are recorded within cumulative translation adjustment, a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). As of September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized a cumulative exchange gain (loss) of approximately $677,000and $669,000, respectively, on intercompany loans made by the parent to the subsidiary that have not been repaid as of September 30, 2024, which is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with US GAAP. For certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Amounts recorded for notes payable, net of discount, and loans payable also approximate fair value because current interest rates available for debt with similar terms and maturities are substantially the same.
The Company follows accounting guidance for financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost).
The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.
Also see Note 11 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at banks, short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less with financial institutions, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are reflected as a current liability on the balance sheets. There were nocash equivalents as of September 30, 2024 or June 30, 2024.
Refundable Advance Deposit
In August 2023, the Company paid a refundable advance deposit of $120,958which consisted primarily of a deposit paid to a potential lender to be used as payment for a loan insurance premium related to a future loan transaction with the Company. In the event, the future loan transaction does not close, the potential lender shall return the refundable advance deposit. During fiscal year 2024, the Company recorded an allowance for the recoverability of this refundable advance deposit of $120,958.
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs, with regards to offering costs. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering costs are capitalized and consist principally of professional, underwriting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Company's proposed public offering. The deferred offering costs are charged to additional paid-in capital or as a discount to debt, as applicable, upon the completion of an offering or to expense if the offering is not completed. As of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the Company had recorded $27,117in deferred offering costs for both periods.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; additions, renewals, and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the declining balance method. The depreciable amount is the cost less its residual value.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Machinery and equipment | - 5years |
Furniture | - 7years |
Patents
Patents are stated at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated future periods if and once the patent has been granted by a regulatory agency. However, the Company will expense any patent costs as long as we are in the startup stage. Accordingly, as the Company's products are not currently approved for market, all patent costs incurred from 2013 through September 30, 2024 were expensed immediately. This practice of expensing patent costs immediately ends when a product receives market authorization from a government regulatory agency.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360-10, "Long-lived assets," which include property and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset's expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable.
Employee Benefit/Liability
Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, accumulated annual leave, accumulated long service leave and any other employee benefits expected to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date are measured based on the employee's remuneration rates applicable at the reporting date. All other employee benefit liabilities are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. All employee liabilities are owed within the next twelve months.

Australian Goods and Services Tax ("GST")
Revenues, expenses and balance sheet items are recognized net of the amount of GST, except payable and receivable balances which are shown inclusive of GST. The GST incurred is payable on revenues to, and recoverable on purchases from, the Australian Taxation Office.
Cash flows are presented in the statements of cash flow on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
As of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, the Company was owed $3,309and $2,950, respectively, from the Australian Taxation Office. These amounts were fully collected subsequent to the balance sheet reporting dates.
Derivative Instruments
ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC Topic 815"), establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities by requiring that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings. On the date of conversion or payoff of debt, the Company records the fair value of the conversion shares, removes the fair value of the related derivative liability, removes any discounts and records a net gain or loss on debt extinguishment.
Convertible Notes With Variable Conversion Options
The Company has entered into convertible notes, some of which contain variable conversion options, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted, by the holder, into shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001per share ("common stock") at a fixed discount to the price of the common stock at or around the time of conversion. The Company treats these convertible notes as stock settled debt under ASC 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity" and measures the fair value of the notes at the time of issuance, which is the result of the share price discount at the time of conversion and records the put premium as interest expense.
Income Taxes
The Company is governed by Australia and United States income tax laws, which are administered by the Australian Taxation Office and the United States Internal Revenue Service, respectively. The Company follows ASC 740 "Accounting for Income Taxes," when accounting for income taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for temporary differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The Company follows ASC 740, Sections 25 through 60, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." These sections provide detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions must meet a "more-likely-than-not" recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of ASC 740 and in subsequent periods.
Research and Development Costs and Tax Credits
In accordance with ASC 730-10, "Research and Development-Overall," research and development costs are expensed when incurred. Total research and development costs for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were $61,714and $16,242, respectively.
The Company may apply for research and development tax concessions with the Australian Taxation Office on an annual basis. Although the amount is possible to estimate at year end, the Australian Taxation Office may reject or materially alter the claim amount. Accordingly, the Company does not recognize the benefit of the claim amount until cash receipt since collectability is not certain until such time. The tax concession is a refundable credit. If the Company has net income, then the Company can receive the credit which reduces its income tax liability. If the Company has net losses, then the Company may still receive a cash payment for the credit, however, the Company's net operating loss carryforwards are reduced by the gross equivalent loss that would produce the credit amount when the income tax rate is applied to that gross amount. The concession is recognized as a tax benefit, in operations, upon receipt.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, "Stock Compensation". ASC 718 requires the fair value of all stock-based employee compensation awarded to employees to be recorded as an expense over the shorter of the service period or the vesting period. The Company values employee and non-employee stock-based compensation at fair value using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.
The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 and accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with the measurement and recognition criteria of ASC 718 and recognizes the fair value of such awards over the service period. The Company used the modified prospective method of adoption.
Revenue Recognition
The Company applies ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). ASC 606 establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most of the existing revenue recognition guidance. This standard requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services and also requires certain additional disclosures. Subject to these criteria, the Company intends to recognize revenue relating to royalties on product sales in the period in which the sale occurs and the royalty term has begun.

Legal Expenses
All legal costs for litigation are charged to expense as incurred.
Leases
The Company follows ASC Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842) and applies the package of practical expedients, which permit it not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. In addition, the Company elected not to apply ASC Topic 842 to arrangements with lease terms of 12 months or less. Operating lease right of use assets ("ROU") represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of common stock equivalents such as stock options, warrants and convertible debt instruments. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. As a result, the basic and diluted per share amounts for all periods presented are identical. Each holder of the convertible notes has agreed to a 4.99% beneficial ownership conversion limitation (subject to certain noteholders' ability to increase such limitation to 9.99% upon 60 days' notice to the Company), and each note may not be converted during the first six-month period from the date of issuance.The Company's CEO holds Series B Preferred Stock that, when combined, confers upon him a majority vote, including regarding authorization of additional common shares and/or the authorization of a reverse split the stock as considered necessary. Such securities are considered dilutive securities which were excluded from the computation since the effect is anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have reviewed the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods. We have carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and do not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the Company's reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of the Company's financial management.
In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments, amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity's own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions, and modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS calculation. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 for smaller reporting companies, and interim periods within those reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those reporting periods. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had no revenues, had a net loss of $354,310, and had net cash used in operations of $235,515. Additionally, As of September 30, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficit, stockholders' deficit and accumulated deficit of $4,079,710, $4,108,085, and $67,052,530, respectively. It is management's opinion that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the issue date of this Quarterly Report.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Successful completion of the Company's development program and, ultimately, the attainment of profitable operations are dependent upon future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill its development activities, acceptance of the Company's patent applications, obtaining additional sources of suitable and adequate financing and ultimately achieving a level of sales adequate to support the Company's cost structure and business plan. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on its ability to further develop and execute on its business plan. However, there can be no assurances that any or all of these endeavors will be successful.

NOTE 11 - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Derivative Financial Instruments:
The Company applies the provisions of ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity's Own Equity, under which convertible instruments and warrants, which contain terms that protect holders from declines in the stock price (reset provisions), may not be exempt from derivative accounting treatment. As a result, warrants and embedded conversion options in convertible debt are recorded as a liability and are revalued at fair value at each reporting date. If the fair value of the warrants exceeds the face value of the related debt, the excess is recorded as change in fair value in operations on the issuance date. The Company had $145,700(4 notes) and $110,500(3 notes) of convertible debt, which were treated as derivative instruments outstanding at September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively.
The Company calculates the estimated fair values of the liabilities for derivative instruments using the Binomial Trees Method. The closing price of the Company's common stock at September 30, 2024, the last trading day of the period ended September 30, 2024, was $0.0003. The volatility, expected remaining term and risk-free interest rates used to estimate the fair value of derivative liabilities at September 30, 2024 are indicated in the table that follows. The expected term is equal to the remaining term of the warrants or convertible instruments and the risk-free rate is based upon rates for treasury securities with the same term.

Overview
The Company was originally formed in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia on October 15, 2007 as Propanc PTY LTD. On November 23, 2010, Propanc Health Group Corporation was incorporated in the State of Delaware and in January 2011, to reorganize our Company, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Propanc PTY LTD on a one-for-one basis, whereby Propanc PTY LTD became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Effective April 20, 2017, we changed our name to "Propanc Biopharma, Inc." to better reflect our current stage of operations and development.
We are a development-stage healthcare company that is currently focused on developing new cancer treatments for patients suffering from pancreatic, ovarian and colorectal cancer. Utilizing our scientific and oncology consultants, we have developed a rational, composite formulation of anti-cancer compounds, which together exert a number of effects designed to control or prevent tumors from recurring and spreading through the body. Our lead product candidate, PRP, is a variation upon our novel formulation and involves pro-enzymes, the inactive precursors of enzymes.
Recent Developments
On August 7, 2024, we received written consent in lieu of a meeting by the holders of a majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock as of August 7, 2024 and our Board of Directors approving such actions as are necessary for us to proceed to, and accordingly intends to, effectuate and execute a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of one post-split share per sixty thousand pre-split shares (1:60,000) (the "Reverse Stock Split"). Proportional adjustments for the Reverse Stock Split will be made to our outstanding stock options, warrants and equity incentive plans. We are awaiting the approval of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") for the market effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split.
On August 14, 2024, allowance for the Company's "proenzyme composition" patent was received from the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO). The patent broadly captures both high dose and high ratio claims for future clinical doses of the company's lead asset, PRP. This is the second Canadian patent either allowed or granted in this important North American jurisdiction. The proenzymes composition patent is an important part of the IP portfolio covering possible future clinical dosage ranges for PRP, as the Company advances to a Phase 1, First-In-Human (FIH) study in advanced cancer patients suffering from solid tumors.
On August 21, 2024, we reported that two scientific, peer reviewed journal articles published by the Company and its research partners reached 10 citations and 4,500 reads, respectively. Published data from the Company's joint research and development program were generated in conjunction with the Universities of Jaén and Granada, Biosanitary Research Institute of Granada, and University Hospital, Spain.
On October 30, 2024, we filed an S-1 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for an underwritten offering that reflects the proposed reverse split of the outstanding Common Stock and treasury stock of the Company at an assumed 1- for- 60,000 ratio, which is anticipated to occur prior to the closing of the offering. Our Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Marketplace operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. ("OTC") under the symbol "PPCB." In connection with this offering, we have applied to have our Common Stock listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "PPCB."
Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report. The results discussed below are of the Company and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiary, Propanc PTY LTD.
For the Three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the Three months ended September 30, 2023.
Revenue
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we generated no revenue because we are currently undertaking research and development activities for market approval and no sales were generated in this period.
Administration Expense
Administration expense decreased to $220,759 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $393,828 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease of approximately $173,000 is primarily attributable to a decrease of approximately $144,000 in general consulting, legal and investor relation fees and decrease in accounting fees of approximately $6,000, decrease of approximately $40,000 in employee remuneration expense offset by increase in stock-based expenses of approximately $8,000, increase in marketing expenses of $8,000 and increase in other general and administrative expenses of approximately $1,000.
3 |
Occupancy Expense
Occupancy expenses increased to $8,317 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $7,149 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This increase of approximately $1,000 is primarily attributable to exchange rate movements over the period when compared to the same period in 2023.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses were increased to $61,714 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $16,242 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase in research and development expenses of approximately $45,000.
Such research and development expenses are related to the two-year collaboration agreement with University of Jaén, which was executed in October 2020 to provide certain research services to the Company ending on October 2022, relating to the investigation of a fully synthetic recombinant version of PRP. Additionally, on July 27, 2022, the Company entered into another two-year research agreement with the University of Jaén to provide certain research and experiment services to the Company relating to the investigation of the effects of pancreatic proenzymes against the tumor microenvironment. Additionally, we also allocate a portion of the management's salary to research and development expenses.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $86,230 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $178,234 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Interest expense is primarily comprised of approximately $57,000 of debt discount amortization and interest expense from accrual of interest expense and other financing fees for a total of approximately $29,000 for the for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
This decrease in interest expense of $92,004 is primarily attributable to the decrease in amortization of debt discount of approximately $12,000 and decrease of approximately $89,000 in accretion of put premium.
Derivative Expense
Derivative expense decreased to $27,182 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $77,721 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in issuance of convertible notes to GS Capital which initial value was bifurcated from the embedded conversion option and was recorded as derivative expense.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities were decreased to a gain of $52,787 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to a gain of $303,929 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease in gain of approximately $251,000 is primarily attributable to a decrease in fair value of the principal amount of convertible notes with bifurcated embedded conversion option derivatives as a result of the decrease in stock prices during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Gain (Loss) on Extinguishment of Debt, net
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, notes with principal amounts totaling $30,800, accrued interest of $2,212 and conversion fees of $798 containing bifurcated embedded conversion option derivatives were converted into common stock. Accordingly, the fair market value of the shares issued upon conversion was $79,176, resulting in a loss on extinguishment at the time of conversion of $45,365 and $34,046 of derivative liability fair value was recorded as a gain on extinguishment at the time of conversion, resulting in a net loss of $11,319 which is included in gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, notes with principal amounts totaling $70,800, accrued interest of $5,184 and conversion fees of $1,437 containing bifurcated embedded conversion option derivatives were converted into common stock. Accordingly, the fair market value of the shares issued upon conversion was $191,043, resulting in a loss on extinguishment at the time of conversion of $113,622 and $147,932 of derivative liability fair value was recorded as a gain on extinguishment at the time of conversion, resulting in a net gain of $34,310 which is included in gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Foreign Currency Transaction Gain (Loss)
Foreign currency transaction gain (loss) decreased to a loss of $8,423 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to a loss of ($15,948) for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease of approximately $24,000 is partially attributable to the increase in exchange rates during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Net loss
Net loss decreased to $354,310 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to a net loss of $350,866 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The change relates to the factors discussed above.
Deemed dividend
The Company recognized the value of the effect of a down round feature related to our Series A warrants when triggered. Upon the occurrence of the triggering event that resulted in a reduction of the strike price, the Company measured the value of the effect of the feature as the difference between the fair value of the warrants without the down round feature or before the strike price reduction and the fair value of the warrants with a strike price corresponding to the reduced strike price upon the down round feature being triggered. Accordingly, the Company recognized deemed dividend of $0 and $142,575 during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and a corresponding reduction of income available to common stockholders upon the alternate cashless exercise of these warrants during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Net loss available to common stockholders
Net loss available to common stockholders decreased to $354,310 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to a net loss available to common stockholders of $493,441 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease of approximately $139,000 is primarily attributable to the change relates to the factors discussed above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Current Financial Condition
As of September 30, 2024, we had total assets of $63,644, comprised primarily of cash of $9,268, GST tax receivable of $3,309, prepaid expenses and other current assets of $8,957, security deposit of $2,081, and operating lease ROU asset, net of $12,912. As compared to June 30, 2024, we had total assets of $72,365, comprised primarily of cash of $21,085, GST tax receivable of $2,950, prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1,406, deferred offering cost of $27,117, security deposit of $2,008, and operating lease ROU asset, net of $17,799.
We had current liabilities of $4,101,244, primarily comprised of net convertible debt of $381,789, accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2,113,788, employee benefit liability of $677,902, loans payable of $145,091, loans payable-related parties of $227,328, note payable, net of $213,109 and embedded conversion option liabilities of $134,234 as of September 30, 2024. As compared to June 30, 2024, we had current liabilities of $3,792,782, primarily comprised of net convertible debt of $399,325, accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2,100,137, employee benefit liability of $639,371, loans payable of $145,091, loans payable - related party of $71,629, note payable, net of $204,694 and embedded conversion option liabilities of $133,886 as of June 30, 2024.
We have funded our operations primarily through the issuance of equity and/or convertible securities for cash. The cash was used primarily for payments for research and development, administration expenses, occupancy expenses, professional fees, consultants and travel.
During the three months ended September 30, 2024 we received proceeds from issuance of note of $60,000 and proceeds from issuance of loan payable from related parties of $155,699.
We have substantial capital resource requirements and have incurred significant losses since inception. As of September 30, 2024, we had $9,268 in cash. We depend upon debt and/or equity financing to fund our ongoing operations and to execute our current business plan. Such capital requirements are in excess of what we have in available cash and for which we currently have commitments. Therefore, we presently do not have enough available cash to meet our obligations over the next 12 months. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms, we may curtail our plan of operations. We will be required to obtain alternative or additional financing from financial institutions, investors or otherwise, in order to maintain and expand our existing operations. The failure by us to obtain such financing would have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations, and adversely affecting our ability to complete ongoing activities in connection with our research and development programs.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023 we received net proceeds from issuance of convertible notes of $220,000, proceed from issuance of note of $120,000, proceeds from issuance of loan from a related party of $153,256 offset by repayment of convertible note of $142,909.
Effect of Exchange Rate
The effect of the exchange rate on cash resulted in a $7,999 positive adjustment to cash flows in the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to a $20,312 negative adjustment to cash flows in the three months ended September 30, 2023. The reason for the fluctuation is due to the application of currency translation rates throughout the cash flow statement, the volume of transactions within each period and the daily fluctuation in exchange rates.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Below is a discussion of our more subjective accounting estimation processes for purposes of explaining (i) the methodology used in calculating the estimates, (ii) the inherent uncertainties pertaining to such estimates, and (iii) the possible effects of a significant variance in actual experience, from that of the estimate, on our financial condition. Estimates involve numerous assumptions that, if incorrect, could create a material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

Derivative Instruments: ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging," establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities by requiring that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings. On the date of conversion, or payoff, of debt, we record the fair value of the conversion shares, remove the fair value of the related derivative liability, remove any discounts and record a net gain or loss on debt extinguishment.

Going Concern Qualification
We did not generate any revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and have incurred significant losses and cash used in operations, and such losses and use of cash are expected to continue. Our independent registered public accounting firm has included a "Going Concern Qualification" in their audit report for each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. In addition, we have negative working capital and convertible debt that is past maturity that we are currently negotiating with lenders in order to amend the maturity dates. The foregoing raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months from the issue date of this report. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to execute our strategy and on our ability to raise additional funds and/or to consummate a public offering. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. 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 case of equity and/or convertible debt financing. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The "Going Concern Qualification" might make it substantially more difficult to raise capital.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we conducted an evaluation (the "Evaluation"), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, the disclosure controls and procedures of our Company were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports was recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis due to the material weaknesses in financial reporting as discussed below.
Material Weaknesses and Corrective Actions
The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled "2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, ("COSO"). In connection with the audits of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we identified certain deficiencies relating to our internal control over financial reporting that constitute a material weakness under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the "PCAOB"). A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, within the meaning of PCAOB Audit Standard No. 5, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting continued to exist at September 30, 2024:
● | we do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"); | |
● | we do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our limited size and early-stage nature of operations, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible; however, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals; | |
● | lack of audit committee of our board of directors; and | |
● | insufficient monitoring and review controls over the financial reporting closing process, including the lack of individuals with current knowledge of U.S. GAAP. |
We outsource certain of the functions that would normally be performed by a principal financial officer to assist us in implementing the necessary financial controls over the financial reporting and the utilization of internal management and staff to effectuate these controls.
We believe that these material weaknesses primarily relate, in part, to our lack of sufficient staff with appropriate training in U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations with respect to financial reporting functions, and the lack of robust accounting systems, as well as the lack of sufficient resources to hire such staff and implement these accounting systems.
We plan to take a number of actions in the future to correct these material weaknesses including, but not limited to, establishing an audit committee of our board of directors comprised of at least two independent directors, adding experienced accounting and financial personnel and retaining third-party consultants to review our internal controls and recommend improvements, subject to receiving sufficient additional capital. If we receive sufficient capital, we hope to increase the chief financial officer's role from part-time to full-time as the next step in building out our accounting department. We will need to take additional measures to fully mitigate these issues, and the measures we have taken, and expect to take, to improve our internal controls may not be sufficient to (1) address the issues identified, (2) ensure that our internal controls are effective or (3) ensure that the identified material weakness or other material weaknesses will not result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements. In addition, other material weaknesses may be identified in the future. If we are unable to correct deficiencies in internal controls in a timely manner, our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information accurately and within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC will be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our Common Stock, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties, and generally materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
