FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents incorporated herein by reference contain “forward-looking statements.” Additionally, we, or our representatives, may, from time to time, make other written or verbal forward-looking statements and discuss plans, expectations, and objectives regarding our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Without limiting the foregoing, statements that are in the future tense, and all statements accompanied by terms such as “believe,” “hope,” “potential,” “project,” “expect,” “trend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “assume,” “intend,” “plan,” “target,” “anticipate,” “outlook, “preliminary,” “will likely result,” “will continue,” and variations of them and similar terms are intended to be “forward-looking statements” as defined by federal securities laws. Such statements are based on currently available information, which management has assessed but which is dynamic and subject to rapid change due to risks and uncertainties that affect our business.

 

For the next several years, we believe our success is highly correlated with the outcome of our clinical trials and, secondarily, with the sale of our products and services. The Company may not be able to complete human trials on our investigational drug candidates, or, once conducted, the results of human trials may not be favorable or as anticipated or may reflect a lack of efficacy in humans or animals. Precautions, including social distancing and travel restrictions, among others, could lead to delays or expenses greater than anticipated or projected. Failure or delay with respect to any of the above factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, future results of operations, stock price, and financial condition.

 

Our projections and investments anticipate certain regulatory changes and stable pricing, which may not hold out over the next several years. We may not be able to protect our intellectual property adequately or receive patents. We may not receive regulatory approval for our products or trials. The patent applications we have licensed may not be granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”), even if the Company is in full compliance with USPTO requirements. We may not have adequate resources, including financial resources, to successfully conduct all requisite clinical trials, to bring a product based on the above-referenced patented formulations to market, or to pay applicable maintenance fees over time. We may not be able to successfully commercialize our products even if they are successful and receive regulatory approval, including, but not limited to, based on the Food and Drug Administration’s (“FDA”) current position on hemp and hemp-based products. Failure or delay with respect to any of the factors above could have a material adverse effect on our business, future results of operations, stock price, and financial condition.

 

This document also contains statements that are not approved by the FDA, including but not limited to the statements on hemp and hemp extracts and their potential efficacy on humans and animals. While these statements and claims are intended to be in compliance with federal and state laws, we cannot guarantee such compliance.

 

We caution you not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which are based upon assumptions, expectations, plans, and projections subject to risks and uncertainties, including those, if any, identified in the “Risk Factors” set forth in this report or in our transition report on Form 10-KT for the nine months transition period ended December 31, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 18, 2026, this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other documents that we subsequently file with the SEC that update, supplement or supersede such information, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date when they are made. Except as required by federal securities law, we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events, circumstances, changes in expectations, or the occurrence of unanticipated events after the date of those statements.

NOTE 1 BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

Overview

 

IGC Pharma, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of novel therapeutic candidates for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders, with a primary emphasis on Alzheimer’s disease. Our core strategy is to address high-burden symptoms and underlying disease mechanisms through differentiated pharmaceutical formulations, supported by targeted clinical development and data-driven research approaches.

 

Our lead product candidate, IGC-AD1, is currently being evaluated in a Phase 2 clinical trial for the treatment of agitation in Alzheimer’s dementia, a neuropsychiatric condition affecting a substantial proportion of patients and associated with significant patient distress, caregiver burden, and healthcare utilization. In addition to symptom management, preclinical studies of IGC-AD1 suggest activity against biological pathways associated with Alzheimer’s disease pathology, supporting its potential evaluation in broader disease-modifying contexts.

 

Beyond IGC-AD1, our development pipeline includes additional early-stage therapeutic candidates targeting Alzheimer’s disease mechanisms, including TGR-63 and other investigational compounds currently in preclinical evaluation. These programs are intended to expand our long-term development portfolio while maintaining a disciplined focus on clinical execution and capital efficiency.

 

The Company is also developing MINT-AD, a proprietary, artificial intelligence, enabled data platform designed to support risk stratification and longitudinal assessment in Alzheimer’s disease using multimodal datasets. MINT-AD is intended as a clinical and research decision-support tool and is not currently approved as a diagnostic device.

 

We operate as a clinical-stage organization and do not currently generate revenue from pharmaceutical product sales. Our limited revenue to date has primarily been derived from life sciences related activities outside of our core drug development programs. Our operations are funded through equity financings, debt facilities, and strategic capital allocation, and we expect to continue to incur operating losses as we advance our clinical and research programs.

 

Business Organization

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had the following operating subsidiaries: HH Processors, LLC, IGC Pharma IP, LLC, IGC Pharma, LLC, SAN Holdings, LLC, Hamsa Biopharma India Pvt. Ltd., and Colombia-based beneficially owned subsidiary IGC Pharma SAS. The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31. The Company’s principal office is in Maryland, and it is a Maryland corporation established in 2005. Additionally, the Company has offices in Colombia, South America, and India. The Company’s filings are available on www.sec.gov.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, has been derived from audited financial statements, and the accompanying as of March 31, 2026 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“interim statements”) of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) within its Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim statements have been included. The results reported in these interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2025, contained in the Company’s transition report on Form 10-KT for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 18, 2026, specifically in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Principles of consolidation

 

The interim statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the interim statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation. Transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. In the event of the liquidation of foreign subsidiaries, the cumulative translation adjustment is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to accumulated deficit through earnings. (“ASC 830-30-40-1”).

 

Presentation and functional currencies

 

IGC operates in the U.S., India, and Colombia, and a substantial portion of the Company’s financials are denominated in the Indian Rupee (“INR”), or the Colombian Peso (“COP”). As a result, changes in the relative values of the U.S. Dollar (“USD”), the INR, or the COP affect our financial statements. 

 

The accompanying financial statements are reported in USD. The INR and COP are the functional currencies for certain subsidiaries of the Company. The translation of the functional currencies into USD is performed for assets and liabilities using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenues and expenses using average exchange rates prevailing during the reporting periods. Adjustments resulting from the translation of functional currency financial statements to the reporting currency are accumulated and reported as other comprehensive income/(loss), a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are converted into the functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing when the transactions occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. 

 

Going Concern

 

The Company assesses and determines its ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with the provisions of ASC Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial StatementsGoing Concern”, which requires the Company to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company is currently in the clinical trial stage and has not yet achieved profitability. The Company expects to continue to incur significant operating and net losses, as well as negative cash flow from operations, in the near future.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, the Company incurred net losses of approximately $2.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company raised approximately $60 thousand through private placements and approximately $623 thousand in net proceeds from loans. The at-the-market program and the Master Loan and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with O-Bank, Co., Ltd., serve to minimize ongoing liquidity requirements and ensure the Company’s ability to sustain its operations. The Company has taken several steps to extend its operational runway, including narrowing its strategic focus to Life Sciences and managing clinical development expenses with a disciplined approach. While management believes these actions improve the Company’s financial position, there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company entered into the 2026 Securities Purchase Agreements (“2026 SPAs”) with multiple investors, relating to the sale and issuance by our Company to the investors of an aggregate of 172,414 shares of our common stock, for a total purchase price of $50 thousand, or $0.29 per share, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the 2026 SPAs. The investments are subject to customary closing conditions, including NYSE approval.

 

On January 5, 2026, we entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “2025 Subscription Agreement”) with certain investors named therein, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors, in a registered direct offering, an aggregate of 779,997 shares of the Company’s common stock, at a purchase price of $0.30 per share, for gross proceeds of approximately $234 thousand, before deducting the Company’s estimated offering expenses.

 

On March 5, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “VFG Purchase Agreement”) with Vanquish Funding Group Inc. (“VFG”), pursuant to which the Company issued a promissory note (the “VFG Note”) with a principal amount of approximately $353 thousand, including an original issue discount of approximately $46 thousand. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $307 thousand before debt issuance costs of approximately $25 thousand, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $282 thousand. The VFG Note matures on February 28, 2027. The Company may prepay the VFG Note in full at any time upon prior written notice to VFG. Solely upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default, VFG has the right to convert all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the VFG Note into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 75% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the ten trading days immediately preceding the conversion date. The conversion is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% and a 19.99% share issuance cap, unless stockholder approval is obtained in accordance with applicable NYSE American rules. As of March 31, 2026, the full principal amount of the VFG Note of approximately $353 thousand remained outstanding, with no principal payments having been made.

 

On February 2, 2026, the Company, through its subsidiary HH Processors, LLC, entered into a loan agreement with ODK Capital LLC (“OnDeck”), pursuant to which the Company received approximately $214 thousand in financing (the “OnDeck Loan”). The OnDeck Loan bears interest and is repayable in periodic installments in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the loan agreement, approximately $3 thousand per week. The OnDeck Loan matures on August 2, 2027.

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had total outstanding debt of approximately $917 thousand.

 

For additional information, see Note 11, “Loans and Other Liabilities,” and Note 13, “Securities” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company estimates that its current cash and cash equivalents balance, with the investments, and with an available overdraft facility of $12 million from O-Bank, is sufficient to support operations for at least the next twelve months following the date these consolidated financial statements and footnotes were issued. These estimates are based on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and the Company could use its available capital resources sooner than it currently expects.

Accounts receivable

 

We make estimates of the collectability of our accounts receivable by analyzing historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required. We had $37 thousand of accounts receivable, as of March 31, 2026, with no allowance for doubtful accounts, as compared to $12 thousand of accounts receivable, net of provision for the doubtful debt of $8 thousand as of December 31, 2025.

 

Current Investments

 

Current investments consist of marketable securities, including exchange-traded products (“ETPs”), that the Company intends to hold for less than one year. These investments are classified as equity securities under ASC 321, Investments—Equity Securities and are measured at fair value using quoted prices in active markets (Level 1). Changes in fair value are recognized in other income (expense), net, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2026, Current investments consisted of approximately $28 thousand in a U.S.-listed digital asset ETP. The Company does not directly hold cryptocurrencies or other digital tokens.

 

Intangible assets

 

The Company’s intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Intangible assets having indefinite lives are not amortized but instead are reviewed annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired, to assess whether their fair value exceeds their carrying value. We perform an impairment analysis on December 1 annually on the indefinite-lived intangible assets following the steps laid out in ASC 350-30-35-18. Our annual impairment analysis includes a qualitative assessment to determine if it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. In performing a qualitative assessment, we review events and circumstances that could affect the significant inputs used to determine if the fair value is less than the carrying value of the intangible assets. If quantitative analysis is necessary, we would analyze various aspects including revenues from the business, associated with the intangible assets. In addition, intangible assets will be tested on an interim basis if an event or circumstance indicates that it is more likely than not that an impairment loss has been incurred. The Company has analyzed a variety of factors on its business to determine if a circumstance could trigger an impairment loss, and, at this time and based on the information presently known, does not believe it is more likely than not that an impairment loss has been incurred.

 

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. In accordance with ASC 360-10-35-21, definite-lived intangibles are reviewed annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired, to assess whether their fair value exceeds their carrying value.

 

The Company intends to capitalize trademarks and related expenses exceeding $2,500 per trademark.

 

ASU 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets

 

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-08, which requires certain crypto assets to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in net income each reporting period. The amendments also require separate presentation of crypto assets measured at fair value and provide for additional disclosure requirements, including a roll-forward of activity, cost basis, and any restrictions. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.

 

Subject to the provisions of ASU 2023-08, although the Company did not hold any crypto assets directly, the Company adopted ASU 2023-08 in the first quarter of its fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, and will apply its provisions to any direct holdings of in-scope crypto assets. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements at the date of adoption, but the presentation of any crypto asset holdings will be subject to the measurement and disclosure requirements of the new standard.

 

Software Development Costs

 

The Company is developing three proprietary software platforms intended to be commercialized: -

 

1. A clinical data management platform designed for the collection, analysis, and real-time monitoring of clinical trial data; and

Table of Contents 

 

2. MINT- AD – An AI-driven diagnostic and treatment personalization platform aimed at assisting in the early detection of Alzheimer’s disease and providing data-informed therapeutic suggestions.

 

3. Agentic Harmonization Assistant (“AHA”) to support of MINT-AD and the Company’s broader AI research and development efforts, IGC Pharma has and is developing AHA, an agentic analytics and data harmonization architecture designed to support large-scale Alzheimer’s disease research.

 

In accordance with ASC 985-20, Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, and ASC 350-40, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software, the Company capitalizes development costs incurred after technological feasibility has been established (for software to be marketed) or when management has authorized and committed to funding the project and it is probable that the project will be completed and used as intended (for internal-use software). Costs incurred during the research and planning phase are expensed as incurred.

 

Effective January 1, 2026, the Company elected to early adopt ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Capitalized costs include direct labor, third-party development services, cloud computing infrastructure directly related to model development and deployment, and associated overhead. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, typically five to ten years, beginning when the software is ready for its intended commercial use.

 

As of quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company capitalized approximately $1.6 million in software development costs. For more information, please refer to Note 5, “Intangible Assets”.

 

Loss per share

 

The computation of basic loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026, excludes potentially dilutive securities of approximately 20 million shares, which include share options, unvested shares such as restricted share awards and units, granted to directors, employees, non-employees, and advisors, and shares from the conversion of outstanding units, if any, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

The weighted average number of shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, used for the computation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”), is 98,161,733 and 79,658,429, respectively. Due to the loss incurred by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, all the potential equity shares are anti-dilutive, and accordingly, the fully diluted EPS is equal to the basic EPS.

 

Cybersecurity

 

The Company maintains a cybersecurity risk management program designed to identify, assess, and mitigate risks from cybersecurity threats. The Company’s cybersecurity program, governance framework, and board oversight are described in Item 1C of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KT for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2025.

 

There have been no material changes to the Company’s cybersecurity risk management program during the three months ended March 31, 2026. During the period, the Company did not identify any cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The core principle of this standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

 

| March 31, 2026, Form 10-Q

 

12

Table of Contents 

 

ASC 606 prescribes a 5-step process to achieve its core principle. The Company recognizes revenue from trading, rental, or product sales as follows:

 

I. Identify the contract with the customer.

II. Identify the contractual performance obligations.

III. Determine the amount of consideration/price for the transaction.

IV. Allocate the determined amount of consideration/price to the performance obligations.

V. Recognize revenue when or as the performing party satisfies performance obligations.

 

The consideration/price for the transaction (performance obligation(s)) is determined as per the agreement or invoice (contract) for the services and products in the Life Sciences segment.

 

In the Life Sciences segment, the revenue from the wellness and lifestyle business is recognized once goods have been sold to the customer and the performance obligation has been completed. In retail sales, we offer consumer products through our online stores. Revenue is recognized when control of the goods is transferred to the customer. This generally occurs upon our delivery to a third-party carrier or to the customer directly. Revenue from white-label services is recognized when the performance obligation has been completed, and output material has been transferred to the customer.

 

Net sales disaggregated by significant products and services for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025 are as follows:

(1) Revenue from wellness and lifestyle consists of the sale of products and services.

 

(2) Revenue from white label services consists of rebranding our formulations or the customer’s products as per the customer’s requirement.

 

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

 

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The amendments eliminate the project-stage framework for capitalizing internal-use software costs and require capitalization when (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and used as intended. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2025-06 effective January 1, 2026, on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis, including entities with a single reportable segment. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2026, on a retrospective basis. The adoption resulted in expanded disclosures in Note 16, “Segment Information”, including the presentation of significant expense categories reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, but did not affect the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The gross amount of intangible assets includes the cost of acquiring patent rights, supporting data, and the expense associated with filing various patent applications in different countries, along with granted patents. It also includes acquisition costs related to domains and licenses.

 

The amortization of patents and patent rights with finite life is up to 20 years, commencing from the date of grant or acquisition. The amortization expense in the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, amounted to approximately $16 thousand and $15 thousand, respectively.

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company has capitalized approximately $1.6 million in software development costs related to three proprietary platforms: (1) a clinical data management platform designed for the collection, analysis, and real-time monitoring of clinical trial data; (2) MINT-AD, an AI-driven diagnostic and treatment personalization platform for Alzheimer’s disease; and (3) AHA, an internal-use platform that supports MINT-AD’s data processing and analytics capabilities. The clinical data management platform and MINT-AD are accounted for under ASC 985-20, Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed. AHA is accounted for under ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software. All three platforms are in the development stage. Amortization has not commenced, as none of the platforms have been made available for general release or placed in service. Capitalized software development costs are included in intangible assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company recognized approximately $2.7 million of intangible assets representing preferential supply rights and other contractual benefits as a “Favorable Contract” received in connection with the sale of assets associated with the Vancouver facility.

December 31, 2025, the balance consisted of approximately $176 thousand owed to Ms. Claudia Grimaldi. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company received approximately $144 thousand of additional proceeds from related-party working capital loans. The loans are unsecured, bear interest at 8.5% per annum, are payable on demand unless otherwise agreed by the parties, and were provided to support the Company’s general working capital needs.

 

2.On March 5, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “VFG Purchase Agreement”) with Vanquish Funding Group Inc. (“VFG”), pursuant to which the Company issued a promissory note (the “VFG Note”) with a principal amount of approximately $353 thousand, maturing on February 28, 2027. The VFG Note was issued with an original issue discount of approximately $46 thousand and debt issuance costs of approximately $25 thousand, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $282 thousand. The Company may prepay the VFG Note in full at any time. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default, VFG may convert outstanding amounts into shares of the Company’s common stock at 75% of the lowest trading price during the ten trading days preceding conversion, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation and a 19.99% share issuance cap unless stockholder approval is obtained.

 

The Company determined that the conversion feature requires bifurcation as an embedded derivative under ASC 815-15. As of March 31, 2026, the derivative liability was recorded at a fair value of approximately $27 thousand. The total debt discount of approximately $98 thousand, comprising the original issue discount, derivative liability, and debt issuance costs, is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the VFG Note using the effective interest method. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, amortization of debt discount was approximately $10 thousand. As of March 31, 2026, the carrying amount of the VFG Note was approximately $265 thousand, net of an unamortized debt discount of approximately $88 thousand, and the fair value of the derivative liability was approximately $27 thousand, with no change during the period.

 

3.On June 11, 2020, the Company received an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) for approximately $150 thousand at an annual interest rate of 3.75%. The Company must pay principal and interest payments of $731 every month beginning June 5, 2021. The SBA will apply each installment payment first to pay interest accrued to the day the SBA receives the payment and will then apply any remaining balance to reduce the principal. All remaining principal and accrued interest is due and payable 30 years from the date of the loan. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the interest expense and principal payment for the EIDL were approximately $1 thousand and $1 thousand, respectively.

 

4.On February 2, 2026, HH Processors, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a loan agreement with ODK Capital LLC (“OnDeck”), pursuant to which the Company received net proceeds of approximately $214 thousand in financing (the “OnDeck Loan”).

NOTE 14 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

As of March 31, 2026, approximately 6.7 million restricted share units (“RSUs”) fair valued at approximately $4.0 million with a weighted average value of $0.59 per share, have been granted but not yet issued from different Incentive Plans and Grants.

 

Additionally, the Company has outstanding options held by advisors and directors to purchase approximately 13.1 million shares of common stock, fair valued at approximately $4.1 million with a weighted average of $0.31 per share, which have been granted but are to be issued over an exercise period between Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2028. Options granted and issued before the vesting period are expensed when issued.

 

The above awards include approximately 4.6 million RSUs and options to purchase 4.1 million shares granted to employees and directors, which consist of a vesting schedule based entirely on the attainment of either operational milestones (performance conditions) or market conditions, assuming continued employment either as an employee, or director with the Company. The performance-based awards are accounted for upon certification by the Company’s management, confirming the probability of achievement of milestones. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s management confirmed that eight milestones had been achieved, and the rest were probable to be achieved by March 31, 2028.

 

The options are valued using a Black-Scholes Pricing Model, and Market-based RSUs are valued based on a lattice model, with the following assumptions:

 

    Granted in
Fiscal 2026
    Granted in
Fiscal 2025
 
Expected life of options   5 years     5 years  
Vested options     100 %     100 %
Risk-free interest rate     4.27 %     5.24 %
Expected volatility     209 %     175 %
Expected dividend yield   Nil     Nil  

 

The expense associated with stock-based payments to employees, directors, advisors, and contractors is allocated over the vesting or service period and recognized in the Selling, general, and administrative expenses (including research and development). For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company’s stock-based expense and option-based expense, shown in Selling, general, and administrative expenses (including research and development), were $306 thousand and $703 thousand, respectively.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company’s stock-based expense and option-based expense, shown in Selling, general, and administrative expenses (including research and development), were $300 thousand and $155 thousand, respectively.

NOTE 17 SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

On April 1, 2026, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “April VFG Purchase Agreement”) with VFG. Pursuant to the terms of the April VFG Purchase Agreement, the Company issued a Promissory Note (the “April VFG Note”) to VFG with a total aggregate principal amount of approximately $238 thousand, which includes an original issue discount of approximately $31 thousand with an interest rate of 12%. The aggregate purchase price paid by VFG for the April VFG Note is approximately $207 thousand. The April VFG Note matures on March 30, 2027. The Company may prepay the April VFG Note in full at any time by providing VFG with prior written notice.

 

On April 14, 2026, the Company executed and delivered the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “FFG Purchase Agreement”) with FirstFire Global Opportunities Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “FirstFire”). Pursuant to the terms of the FFG Purchase Agreement, the Company issued a Promissory Note (the “FFG Note”) to FirstFire with a total aggregate principal amount of approximately $347 thousand, which includes an original issue discount of approximately $40 thousand, with an interest rate of 12%. The aggregate purchase price paid by FirstFire for the FFG Note is approximately $307 thousand. The FFG Note matures on April 10, 2027 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company may prepay the FFG Note in full at any time by providing FirstFire with prior written notice.

 

Solely upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default under each of the FFG Note and April VFG Note, each of VFG and FirstFire has the right, but not the obligation, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding balance of its respective note — including principal, accrued interest, and any applicable default amounts — into shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion price shall be equal to 75% of the lowest trading price of the common stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date. The Company will evaluate the conversion features of the FFG Note and the April VFG Note for embedded derivative bifurcation in accordance with ASC 815-15 and ASC 815-40. The conversion features of the FFG Note and the April VFG Note contain terms that are substantially consistent with the conversion feature of the March VFG Note, which the Company bifurcated as an embedded derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815-15 and ASC 815-40, as described in Note 11. The Company expects to apply the same accounting treatment to the FFG Note and the April VFG Note upon recognition in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The purpose of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) is to provide an understanding of IGC Pharma, Inc.’s (“IGC,” “IGC Pharma,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and/or “us”) consolidated financial condition and results of operations and cash flows. The MD&A should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes that appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and in the Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 18, 2026 (the “2025 Form 10-KT”). The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed here. Factors that could cause differences include those discussed in the “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” sections and discussed elsewhere in this report. The risks and uncertainties can cause actual results to differ significantly from those in our forward-looking statements or implied in historical results and trends. Accordingly, we caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements made by us, which speak only as of the date they are made. We disclaim any obligation, except as expressly required by law and the rules of the SEC, to publicly update or revise any such statements to reflect any change in our expectations or in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statements may be based, or that may affect the likelihood that actual results will differ from those outlined in the forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

IGC Pharma, Inc. (“IGC,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of novel therapeutic candidates for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders, with a primary emphasis on Alzheimer’s disease. Our core strategy is to address high-burden symptoms and underlying disease mechanisms through differentiated pharmaceutical formulations, supported by targeted clinical development and data-driven research approaches.

 

Our lead product candidate, IGC-AD1, is currently being evaluated in the CALMA clinical trial for the treatment of agitation in Alzheimer’s dementia, a neuropsychiatric condition affecting a substantial proportion of patients and associated with significant patient distress, caregiver burden, and healthcare utilization. In addition to symptom management, preclinical studies of IGC-AD1 suggest activity against biological pathways associated with Alzheimer’s disease pathology, supporting its potential evaluation in broader disease-modifying contexts.

 

Beyond IGC-AD1, our development pipeline includes additional early-stage therapeutic candidates targeting Alzheimer’s disease mechanisms, including TGR-63 and other investigational compounds currently in preclinical evaluation. These programs are intended to expand our long-term development portfolio while maintaining a disciplined focus on clinical execution and capital efficiency.

 

The Company is also developing MINT-AD, a proprietary, artificial intelligence, enabled data platform designed to support risk stratification and longitudinal assessment in Alzheimer’s disease using multimodal datasets. MINT-AD is intended as a clinical and research decision-support tool and is not currently approved as a diagnostic device.

 

Life Sciences Segment

 

IGC Pharma, a clinical-stage company developing treatments for Alzheimer’s disease, is committed to transforming patient care by striving to offer faster acting and more effective solutions. Our lead drug, IGC-AD1, embodies this vision by tackling a critical challenge – managing agitation in Alzheimer’s dementia. Early results from our CALMA trial are promising: IGC-AD1 effectively reduced agitation in patients compared to a placebo, and crucially, it did so faster than traditional medications. While existing anti-psychotics can take as long 6 to 12 weeks to show effects, we believe IGC-AD1 has the potential to act within two weeks. This potentially faster onset of action could significantly improve patient care and represents a potential breakthrough in managing Alzheimer’s-related agitation, although there can be no assurance thereof. In addition, we have created in-house wellness brands, available through online channels that are compliant with relevant federal, state, and local laws and regulations. We derive revenue from our in-house wellness non-pharmaceutical formulations that are sold over-the counter (“OTC”).

 

MINT-AD – Artificial Intelligence Platform

 

Overview

 

The Company is developing a proprietary Multimodal Interpretable Transformer for Alzheimer’s Disease (“MINT-AD”). MINT-AD is an artificial intelligence (“AI”) platform designed to enhance the detection and management of Alzheimer’s disease (“AD”) by providing clinicians with scalable, interpretable, and predictive diagnostic support. The platform is engineered to transition AD diagnostics from specialized, high-cost environments—such as neurology clinics utilizing Positron Emission Tomography (“PET”) scans—to primary care settings, rural areas, and underserved populations, although there is no assurance we will be successful in this regard.

Table of Contents 

 

The Market Opportunity and Diagnostic Gap

 

According to the World Alzheimer Report, an estimated 400 million individuals globally may carry AD-related pathology prior to the onset of clinical symptoms. Currently, a significant “diagnostic gap” exists due to a lack of accessible early-detection tools for primary care physicians. This gap leads to delayed diagnoses, reduced eligibility for clinical trials, and sub-optimal patient outcomes. MINT-AD is intended to bridge this gap by offering a cost-effective, non-invasive alternative for early cognitive risk assessment.

 

Proprietary Technology and Architecture

 

MINT-AD leverages a “Transformer” architecture—a state-of-the-art deep learning model—to harmonize and analyze diverse, multimodal datasets. The platform processes a wide array of data sources to produce clinically actionable insights, including:

 

  Neuroimaging and Biomarkers: High-resolution brain scans and genetic risk factors;

 

  Lifestyle and Environmental Data: Social determinants of health and longitudinal patient history; and

 

  Cognitive Metrics: Quantitative performance data and clinical observations.

 

Use of MINT-AD

 

The Company is aiming to position MINT-AD as a practical, AI-driven assistant for healthcare providers. The platform is designed to support the clinical workflow through three primary objectives:

 

  o Risk Stratification – Utilizing AI to analyze multimodal data and identify individuals at high risk of Alzheimer’s disease. This enables physicians to prioritize screening for at-risk patients within their practice, particularly in settings where access to specialists and expensive neuroimaging is limited;

 

  o Predictive Modeling – Forecasting cognitive decline trajectories two to five years in advance. By identifying potential decline before clinical symptoms manifest, MINT-AD provides a window for early intervention, preventative care strategies, and timely enrollment in clinical trials; and

 

  o Structured Plan Support – Assisting the clinician in creating a structured intervention plan for the individual. This step moves beyond diagnosis by leveraging the platform’s interpretable insights to help physicians tailor personalized care plans, monitor disease progression, and manage long-term patient outcomes.

 

Our Business Strategy

 

The business strategy includes:

 

Completing the CALMA trial.
   
Completing Agentic Harmonization Assistant (“AHA”) and MINT-AD.
   
Advancing tox studies to enable disease modifying trials with IGC-AD1.
   
Applying for non-dilutive grants.
   
Advancing TGR-63 as a potential therapeutic for AD.
   
Strengthening clinical credibility and visibility.

 

We believe developing a drug for both symptom and disease-modifying agents has less risk due to the need for expensive multi-year trials. However, there is considerable upside and significant value creation to the extent we obtain a first-in-class advantage, of which there can be no assurance. If we were to obtain a first-in-class advantage, such an advantage could result in significant growth if and when an approved drug such as IGC-AD1 launches.

Table of Contents 

 

We believe that additional investment in clinical trials, AI, R&D, facilities, marketing, advertising, and the acquisition of complementary products and businesses will be critical to the ongoing growth of the Life Sciences segment. Although there can be no assurance, we believe these investments will fuel the development and delivery of innovative products that drive positive patient and customer experiences. We hope to leverage our R&D and intellectual property to develop ground-breaking, science-based products that are proven effective through clinical trials, subject to FDA approval. Although there can be no assurance, we believe this strategy can improve our existing products and lead to the creation of new products that can provide treatment options for multiple conditions, symptoms, and side effects. Management is committed to its core short-term goals, completion of the CALMA trial on IGC-AD1, and

deploying AHA and MINT-AD.

 

The Global Economic Environment

 

In addition to the industry-specific factors, such as regulations around cannabinoid research, we are exposed to economic cycles. Factors in the global economic environment that may impact our operations include, among other things, currency fluctuations, capital and exchange controls, global economic conditions including inflation, restrictive government actions, changes in intellectual property, legal protections and remedies, trade regulations, tax laws and regulations and procedures and actions affecting approval, production, pricing, and marketing of our products, as well as impacts of political or civil unrest or military action, terrorist activity, unstable governments, and legal systems, inter-governmental disputes, public health outbreaks, epidemics, pandemics, natural disasters or disruptions related to climate change.

Revenue – Revenue was approximately $317 thousand and $330 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. Revenue in both quarters was primarily derived from our Life Sciences segment, encompassing the sale of our formulations as white-labeled manufactured products, among others. There is a decrease in revenue as our core focus is on advancing IGC-AD1, completing the Phase 2 trial, and developing MINT-AD for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.

 

Cost of revenue – Cost of revenue amounted to approximately $262 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $176 thousand in the three months ended March 31, 2025. This represents gross margins of 17% and 47%, respectively. The cost of revenue is primarily attributable to the cost of raw materials, labor, and other direct overheads required to produce our products in the Life Sciences segment. Typically, the gross margin in the Life Sciences business will fluctuate from one quarter to the next based on the mix among white-label, private-label, and branded products. There is insufficient revenue to model or project gross margins. In the near term, the Company expects gross margins to remain lower than historical levels as operations stabilize and supply chain arrangements are transitioned to third-party manufacturers. While the transition may result in a temporary reduction in gross margins, management believes the transaction provides long-term operational efficiencies and improved financial flexibility.

 

Selling, General and Administrative expenses (“SG&A”)– SG&A expenses primarily encompass various costs such as employee-related expenses, sales commissions, professional fees, legal fees, marketing expenses, other corporate expenses, allocated general overhead, provisions, depreciation, and write-offs related to doubtful accounts and advances. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, SG&A expenses increased by approximately $671 thousand or 118% to approximately $1.2 million as compared to approximately $570 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $671 thousand is attributed to an absence of a $700 thousand credit recognized in the prior-year period related to the conversion of accrued cash bonuses into performance-based compensation by the Board of Directors. In addition, the increase of approximately $127 thousand related to stock-based compensation was offset by decreases of approximately $98 thousand in operating expenses.

 

Research and Development expenses (“R&D”)– R&D expenses were attributed to our Life Sciences segment. The R&D expenses increased by approximately $275 thousand or 28% to approximately $1.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, from approximately $997 thousand, during the three months ended March 31, 2025. It is primarily attributable to the progression of CALMA trials on IGC-AD1 and pre-clinical studies on the other small molecule assets. We anticipate increased R&D expenses as the development of our other small molecule assets targeting Alzheimer’s and the CALMA trial on Alzheimer’s expands.

 

Other income, net – Other net income decreased by approximately $159 thousand or 74% during the three months ended March 31, 2026. As a result, the total other income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025 is approximately $56 thousand and $215 thousand, respectively. Other income includes interest and rental income, dividend income, profit from the sale of assets, unrealized gains from investments, net income, and income from scrap sales. The primary reason for the decrease is a one-time tax credit of approximately $194 thousand that the Company received during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, funds raised through the ATM offering, cash flows from operations, current and non-current borrowings, and short-term liquidity arrangements. The Company continues to evaluate various financing sources and options to raise working capital to help fund current research and development programs and operations. The Company does not have any material non-current debt, capital lease obligations, or other non-current liabilities except as disclosed in this report. Please refer to Note 12, “Commitments and Contingencies,” and Note 11, “Loans and Other Liabilities,” in Item 1 of this report for further information on the Company’s commitments and contractual obligations.

The Company expects to raise further capital for its research and development initiatives as and when it is able to do so, in an ATM offering or private placement. In addition, there can be no assurance of the terms thereof, and any subsequent equity financing sought may have dilutive effects on our current stockholders. While there is no guarantee that we will be successful, we are applying to non-dilutive funding opportunities such as Small Business Research and Development programs. In addition, subject to limitations on the amount of capital that can be raised, the Company expects to utilize its shelf registration on a statement on Form S- 3 to raise capital through at-the-market offerings or otherwise. Please refer to Note 13, “Securities”, for more information.

Treasury Strategy and Capital Allocation Considerations

 

The Company’s primary capital allocation priority is funding its clinical development programs, including the Phase 2 CALMA trial for IGC-AD1, while maintaining sufficient liquidity to support ongoing operations. Management prioritizes the preservation of cash and cash equivalents and the disciplined deployment of capital toward activities that advance the Company’s pipeline.

 

During the transition period ended December 31, 2025, the Company invested approximately $50 thousand in a U.S.-listed ETP linked to digital assets as part of an initial assessment of treasury diversification alternatives. As of March 31, 2026, this investment was valued at approximately $28 thousand, reflecting a decline in fair value of approximately $22 thousand. The Company does not currently hold any digital assets directly. Any future treasury allocation decisions will be evaluated in the context of the Company’s liquidity requirements, clinical development milestones, and the availability of capital as described under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” above. Digital asset investments involve significant volatility risk, as discussed in Item 1A — “Risk Factors”.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2026, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K. While the Company has derivative liabilities related to embedded conversion features in certain convertible notes, please refer to Note 11, “Loans and Other Liabilities”. These instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

While all accounting policies impact financial statements, certain policies may be viewed as critical. Critical accounting policies are those that are both most important to the portrayal of financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most subjective or complex judgments and estimates. In addition to the policies described below, our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and in the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II of our 2025 Form 10-KT. Our management believes that the following policy falls within this category, in addition to the policies on going concern, revenue recognition, inventory, accounts receivable, foreign currency translation, impairment of long-lived assets and investments, stock-based compensation, and cybersecurity:

 

Digital Asset Investments

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company invested approximately $50 thousand in a U.S.-listed digital asset through an ETP, which was valued at approximately $28 thousand. The investment is classified as a current marketable security and is marked to market each period. The Company does not directly hold cryptocurrencies or other digital tokens. Holdings in ETPs will be accounted for as equity securities under ASC 321, Investments – Equity Securities, and measured at fair value with changes recognized in earnings. Fair value will be determined using quoted prices in active markets (Level 1 inputs).

 

For direct holdings of digital assets, the Company will present in the notes a roll-forward of activity, including the opening balance, additions, dispositions, gains and losses recognized during the period, and the ending balance, as well as any significant concentrations and restrictions.

 

Please see our disclosures in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report, in the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2025 Form 10-KT, as well as Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2025 Form 10-KT, for a discussion of all our critical and significant accounting policies.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in the form of accounting standards updates (ASUs) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Newly issued ASUs not listed are expected to have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations because either the ASU is not applicable, or the impact is expected to be immaterial. Recent accounting pronouncements that may apply to us are described in Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies” to the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II of our 2025 Form 10-KT.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Management maintains disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to Management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the requisite time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated our “internal control over financial reporting” as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) to determine whether any changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2026, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

There have been no material developments in the legal proceedings previously disclosed in Part I, Item 3, “Legal Proceedings”, of our Annual Report on Transition Form 10-KT for the transition period ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 18, 2026 (the “2025 Form 10-KT”). For a description of our material pending legal proceedings, please refer to the 2025 Form 10-KT.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

The following are the material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the period ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 18, 2026.

 

Risks Related to Our Clinical Development and IGC-AD1

 

Our business is highly dependent on the successful development of our lead product candidate, IGC-AD1, and we may not successfully complete clinical development or obtain regulatory approval.

 

Our ability to advance IGC-AD1 depends on the successful execution and completion of our ongoing Phase 2 CALMA clinical trial. We may experience delays in patient enrollment, including failure to achieve targeted enrollment within expected timelines, or at all. Clinical trials are inherently complex and subject to numerous risks, including delays in site initiation, variability in site performance, patient recruitment challenges, protocol deviations, and unforeseen operational or logistical issues. Any such delays could increase development costs, extend timelines, and adversely affect our business and financial condition.

 

Even if we complete the CALMA clinical trial, the results may not demonstrate sufficient safety, tolerability, or efficacy to support continued development or regulatory approval. Clinical trial outcomes are inherently uncertain and may be influenced by factors including trial design, statistical assumptions, patient population characteristics, dosing regimens, and variability in individual patient responses. Negative or inconclusive results could delay or prevent further development and materially adversely affect the value of IGC-AD1.

 

The timing of key clinical milestones, including database lock and the availability of topline data, is uncertain and subject to change. Delays in data collection, data cleaning, monitoring, or analysis could postpone the release of clinical results, which may adversely affect investor expectations, our stock price, and our ability to raise capital.

 

We may not obtain regulatory approval for IGC-AD1. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and other regulatory authorities may require additional preclinical or clinical studies, impose delays in the review process, or determine that our data are insufficient to support approval. Regulatory requirements are evolving and may change during the course of development. Failure to obtain regulatory approval would prevent us from commercializing IGC-AD1 and could materially adversely affect our business.

 

We will require substantial additional capital to continue the development of IGC-AD1 and our other product candidates. Our ability to obtain financing depends on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, and such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to secure sufficient funding, we may be required to delay, scale back, or discontinue our development programs.

 

The biopharmaceutical industry is highly competitive, and our product candidates may face significant competition. Competing therapies, including those currently approved or under development for Alzheimer’s disease or agitation, may demonstrate superior efficacy, safety, or cost-effectiveness. In addition, changes in the standard of care could reduce the commercial opportunity for IGC-AD1, even if approved.

 

We are developing and utilizing artificial intelligence and data-driven tools, including our MINT-AD platform, to support research and development activities. These technologies are emerging and subject to significant technical, regulatory, and operational risks. They may not perform as expected, may produce inaccurate or non-generalizable results, and may be subject to evolving regulatory oversight, including potential FDA regulation of software-based tools. Any limitations or failures of these technologies could adversely affect our clinical development efforts.

 

Our operations and clinical development activities may also be adversely affected by general economic and geopolitical conditions, including supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, regulatory changes, and global market volatility. These factors may impact clinical trial execution, access to clinical sites and personnel, and overall development timelines.

 

Risks Related to Our Convertible Debt Instruments

 

The Company has issued convertible promissory notes that contain variable-rate conversion features, which could result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default, the holders of these notes may convert outstanding amounts into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to a discount to the market price, including at 75% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during a specified period preceding conversion. As of March 31, 2026, the aggregate principal amount of such convertible instruments was approximately $353 thousand. Conversions at discounted prices may result in the issuance of a significant number of shares, particularly in periods of stock price volatility or decline, which could materially dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders and adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock. Although these instruments include a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation and a 19.99% share issuance cap in compliance with applicable NYSE American listing standards, such limitations may not prevent substantial dilution over time, particularly if conversions occur in multiple transactions or if stockholder approval is obtained to exceed applicable thresholds. In addition, the existence of these convertible instruments may create downward pressure on the trading price of the Company’s common stock, limit the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, and could result in increased volatility in the market price of its securities.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

On March 5, 2026, the Company issued a promissory note to VFG with a principal amount of approximately $353 thousand, maturing on February 28, 2027. The VFG Note was issued with an original issue discount of approximately $46 thousand and debt issuance costs of approximately $25 thousand, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $282 thousand. The note is convertible, upon the occurrence of certain events, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a variable conversion price. Any shares issuable upon conversion of the note will be issued pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The terms of the transaction, including conversion limitations and other material provisions, are more fully described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 12, 2026.

 

The transactions described above are intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of the provisions of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On March 5, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “VFG Purchase Agreement”) with Vanquish Funding Group Inc. (“VFG”), pursuant to which the Company issued a promissory note (the “VFG Note”) with a principal amount of approximately $353 thousand, maturing on February 28, 2027. The VFG Note was issued with an original issue discount of approximately $46 thousand and debt issuance costs of approximately $25 thousand, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $282 thousand. The Company may prepay the VFG Note in full at any time. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default, VFG may convert outstanding amounts into shares of the Company’s common stock at 75% of the lowest trading price during the ten trading days preceding conversion, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation and a 19.99% share issuance cap unless stockholder approval is obtained. The Company determined that the conversion feature requires bifurcation as an embedded derivative under ASC 815-15. As of March 31, 2026, the derivative liability was recorded at a fair value of approximately $27 thousand. The total debt discount of approximately $98 thousand, comprising the original issue discount, derivative liability, and debt issuance costs, is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the VFG Note using the effective interest method. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, amortization of debt discount was approximately $10 thousand. As of March 31, 2026, the carrying amount of the VFG Note was approximately $265 thousand, net of an unamortized debt discount of approximately $88 thousand, and the fair value of the derivative liability was approximately $27 thousand, with no change during the period. 0001326205 false Q1 --12-31 0001326205 2026-01-01 2026-03-31 0001326205 2026-04-27 0001326205 2026-03-31 0001326205
