NAYA THERAPEUTICS, INC. (FORMER NAME NAYA BIOSCIENCES, INC.)

 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

September 30, 2024

 

  1. Description of Business

 

Naya Therapeutics, Inc. (former name Naya Biosciences, Inc.) (“LEGACY NAYA” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation formed on June 8, 2023, aiming to develop and build a group of agile, disruptive, high-growth companies dedicated to increasing patient access to life-transforming treatments in oncology and fertility.

 

LEGACY NAYA’s unique capabilities in biology, cell and gene therapy, and artificial intelligence (AI) provide a synergistic platform for the accelerated clinical development and commercialization of these breakthrough treatments.

 

LEGACY NAYA Oncology aims to achieve clinical proof-of-concept for its two bispecific antibodies acquired from Cytovia Therapeutics, LLC (“Cytovia”), advancing towards breakthrough outcomes for liver and ovarian cancer and multiple myeloma patients. Clinical trials are expected to start by 2025.

 

LEGACY NAYA Fertility is evaluating the acquisition of products, devices as well as a network of fertility care businesses.

 

  2. Accounting policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

On October 18, 2023, LEGACY NAYA acquired two assets from Cytovia. Both companies operate under common control and are accounted for as such. The acquisition did not include any other intellectual properties from Cytovia. As such, the Company has prepared the accompanying financial statements under common control as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). See Note 4.

 

In the opinion of management, the Company has made all necessary adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year, any other interim periods or any future year or period.

 

6
 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP required management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. At times, cash and cash equivalents balances exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

 

Investments

 

Investments include an investment in the Series A preferred shares of NAYA Biosciences, Inc. (former name INVO Bioscience, Inc.) (“LEGACY INVO”) pursuant to a securities purchase agreement. The preferred shares will be marketable upon conversion into publicly traded common shares and therefore are being accounted for as marketable securities at the closing market price on the balance sheet date. See Notes 8 and 10.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and its domestic tax liabilities are subject to the allocation of expenses in multiple state jurisdictions. The Company uses the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The recoverability of deferred tax assets is evaluated by assessing the adequacy of future expected taxable income from all sources, including taxable income in prior carryback years, reversal of taxable temporary differences, forecasted operating earnings and available tax planning strategies. To the extent the Company does not consider it more-likely-than-not that a deferred tax asset will be recovered, a valuation allowance is established.

 

Commitment Shares

 

The Company accounts for commitment shares as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the commitment shares specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the commitment shares are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the commitment shares meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the shares are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the commitment share holder could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of share issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date.

 

As the commitment shares issued upon the closing of the Company’s January 3, 2024 debenture meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 815, the commitment shares are classified as equity.

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are expensed when incurred.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The carrying values of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed using the treasury stock method on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock plus the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares include 40,926 outstanding stock options and 190,926 unvested restricted share units as of September 30, 2024 and 0 at September 30, 2023. The computation of diluted loss per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities as the effect would have been anti-dilutive on earnings.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). This statement requires the Company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide service or based on performance goals in exchange for the award, which is usually the vesting period. Under these accounting standards, the fair value of stock options is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Forfeitures are recorded in the period in which they occur.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in U.S. GAAP. The ASU’s amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2024. This did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 entitled “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. This ASU provides guidance related to additional disclosures that will be required related to income taxes. The updated guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. This ASU is expected to result in additional disclosures in the Company’s financial statements related to income taxes in 2025.

  3. Liquidity and Going Concern

 

Historically, the Company has funded its cash and liquidity needs primarily through debt and equity financings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $12.3 million and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $31.3 million as of September 30, 2024. The prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our financial condition and negatively impact our ability to fund continued operations, obtain additional financing in the future and continue as a going concern. There are no assurances that such financing, if necessary, will be available to us at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable terms. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we are unable to generate additional funds in the future through licensing of the assets, creating revenue streams through upfront and milestone payments, royalties, and commercial milestone payments: or funding the Company through equity financing, the Company will be unable to continue operations.

 

Although the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 were prepared under the assumption that it would continue operations as a going concern, the report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 contains a going concern qualification in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, based on the financial statements at that time. Specifically, as noted above, the Company has incurred significant operating losses, and the Company expects to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses.

 

  4. Carve-out Accounting

 

These financial statements are being prepared based on the acquisition of assets as disclosed in Note 5. These are the historical results based on common control accounting.

 

The results reflect that LEGACY NAYA was a stand-alone entity starting in July 2023, separate from the original common control entity for which the carve out accounting was required.

 

Indirect research & development costs were allocated based on percentage of research and development full-time equivalent approach. The full-time employees, who worked on the projects have been assigned on a weekly basis to work a defined percentage of their time per project. The assigned time per week per project then was summarized on a monthly basis. The monthly assigned time per employee per project finally defined the average allocation per project CYT303 and CYT338 for salaries and indirect research & development expenses. The allocated expenses related to CYT303 and CYT338 represent 0% and 36% of Cytovia’s expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, after which LEGACY NAYA was a stand-alone entity.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses were allocated based on percentage of full-time equivalent approach. Allocated percentage is 0% and 10% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, after which LEGACY NAYA was a stand-alone entity.

 

The cost for the rent for the research & development lab has been allocated with the same principle as described above to the two projects CYT303 and CYT338.

  5. Asset Purchase Agreement

 

On October 18, 2023, LEGACY NAYA, Cytovia Therapeutics Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”) and Cytovia entered into and closed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) for projects CYT303 and the CYT338. The aggregate purchase price was comprised of closing payments and the assumption of the certain liabilities totaling $2,688,745.

 

Closing payments were comprised of the issuance of 1,363,642 shares of common stock of LEGACY NAYA to Cytovia and a promissory note to Cytovia in the principal amount of $6,000,000, of which $1,000,000 will be paid at the closing of any financing, and $1,000,000 per month for 5 months; also if LEGACY NAYA or the Combined Company (as defined) raises more than $30,000,000 in a financing, the full amount of $6,000,000 will be due at the closing of the financing.

 

Payments totaling $1,700,000 were made to Cytovia in January 2024. On May 17, 2024, LEGACY NAYA and Cytovia amended the Asset Purchase Agreement. The amended aggregate purchase price was comprised of the following:

 

(a) The issuance of 1,609,098 shares of common stock of LEGACY NAYA.

 

(b) A payment of $1,700,000, which was made by LEGACY NAYA in January 2024.

 

The amended agreement also provides for sublicense fees to be paid to Cytovia at 10% of any gross consideration actually received by LEGACY NAYA (i) as a fee for sublicensing or selling CYT303 or CYT338 in any indications to any third party or (ii) as payments for development milestones, commercial milestones, or royalties or any other payments under the terms of any such sublicense or asset purchase agreement. The acquisition agreement also includes for no further consideration a sublicense agreement between LEGACY NAYA and Cytovia, under which Cytovia granted LEGACY NAYA a non-exclusive sublicense under Cytovia rights in PCT/IB2012/053482 (P-627002-PC) (the “Licensed Technology”), or certain technology jointly owned by Dr. Jean Kadouche and CNRS (The French Center for National Scientific Research) and co-exclusively licensed to Cytovia, for the development and commercialization of CYT303 (now NY303) and CYT338 (now NY338). LEGACY NAYA has extended the non-exclusive license to the development of additional multi-functional antibodies for which LEGACY NAYA will make payments upon achievement of certain milestones. The agreement terminates upon the expiration of the patent rights to the Licensed Technology.

 

These financial statements are being prepared with historical results based on common control accounting. As a result of the amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the remaining note payable of $4,300,000 and accrued liabilities of $2,688,745 were reclassified to additional paid-in capital and the number of shares issued to Cytovia was increased to 1,609,098 shares of Class A Common Stock.

 

  6. Debt

 

Debt consisted of the following:

 

   September 30, 2024   December 31, 2023 
Related party note payable  $290,000   $6,085,000 
Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE)   38,000    275,000 
Five Narrow Lane debentures   11,997,530    - 
Accredited investor note   500,000    - 
Other   31,100    - 
Less debt discount, accredited investor note   (5,556)   - 
Total, net of discount  $12,851,074   $6,360,000 

 

10
 

 

Accrued interest of $547,530 on the Five Narrow Lane debentures was capitalized and is included in the above loan balance at September 30, 2024. Accrued interest of $11,070 for the related party and $13,726 for Five Narrow Lane, respectively, are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at September 30, 2024.

 

Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE Notes)

 

During 2023, the Company received funding from five investors under simple agreements for future equity (“SAFE notes”) for a total of $275,000, giving the investors the right upon conversion to shares of LEGACY NAYA’s common stock at discounts ranging from 30%-40% from the price of an equity financing or a liquidity event. The SAFE notes provide the investor certain rights upon an equity financing, liquidity event, change in control or dissolution. The SAFE notes have no interest rate or maturity date.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company entered into two new SAFE notes for a total of $30,000. During the same period, the Company converted SAFE notes with a value of $267,000 into 122,333 shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2024, SAFE notes with a value of $38,000 remained outstanding.

 

The SAFE notes were classified as a liability based on an evaluation of the characteristics of the instrument pursuant to ASC 480 as certain redemptions are based upon the occurrence of events that are outside of the control of the Company. The SAFE notes are stated at their fair value which approximates cost.

 

See Note 10 for subsequent conversions.

 

Five Narrow Lane LP Securities Purchase Agreement and Debentures

 

On January 3, 2024, LEGACY NAYA entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”), pursuant to which it sold a senior secured debenture (the “Debenture”) in the principal amount of $3,000,000 to Five Narrow Lane, LP (the “Investor”). The Debenture accrued interest at 7% per annum on the outstanding principal amount throughout the term of the Debenture, which had a maturity date of the earlier of (i) April 30, 2024, and (ii) the date of the completion of the Merger under the Merger Agreement. Interest on the Debenture is due monthly on the first business day of every month. LEGACY NAYA may redeem the Debenture upon 10 days’ notice to the Investor. Upon any repayment, LEGACY NAYA will also pay an exit fee equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Debenture, which has been recorded as an additional $3,000,000 of principal and accounted for as an original issue discount. In the event of default, 100% of the outstanding principal amount is due as well as 200% of the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture for a total of $9,000,000.

 

In addition, the Investor received 42,618 commitment shares of common stock, which upon consummation of the Merger, will be exchanged into such number of shares of LEGACY INVO common stock representing 1.5% of the fully diluted outstanding capital of LEGACY INVO, after giving effect to the consummation of the Merger, but prior to the issuance of shares in the pre-Merger financing. The commitment shares were issued in January 2024 and were recorded at $1.51 per share fair value based on a valuation of LEGACY NAYA as of December 31, 2023.

On May 13, 2024, LEGACY NAYA amended the SPA and promised to pay the Investor the principal sum of $9,075,833 (including $75,833 of capitalized interest) on the earlier to occur of the Merger and June 28, 2024. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the outstanding principal amount of the debenture, plus accrued but unpaid interest, and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. In addition, the late interest on the Debenture shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 15% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. On the date of modification, the Company determined that the present value of the cash flows of the modified debt instrument was greater than 10% different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the original debt instrument and therefore the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of $3,000,000, representing the default penalty on the original note.

 

On May 13, 2024, LEGACY NAYA entered into an additional debenture agreement with the Investor for the principal sum of up to $1,000,000 with a maturity date of the earlier of June 28, 2024 or the Trigger Date, as defined, and interest payable at 7%. In May and June 2024, a total of $700,000 was received under the debenture. Upon any repayment or redemption by the Company of all or any of the principal amount of this debenture (whether on or prior to the maturity date, pursuant to an optional redemption, upon acceleration or otherwise), the Company shall pay to the Investor an exit fee in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the debenture, which has been recorded as an additional $700,000 of principal and accounted for as an original issue discount. In the event of default, 200% of the outstanding principal is due in addition to the principal. The Company was in default as of the June 28, 2024 maturity date and therefore incurred a default penalty of $700,000.

 

Effective September 12, 2024, the Company entered into the following agreements with Five Narrow Lane (“Investor”): an Omnibus Amendment and Agreement, a Senior Secured Convertible Debenture and a Registration Rights Agreement. The Company and the Investor agreed to, among other things:

 

  Exchange the May 2024 Debentures for a Senior Secured Convertible Debenture due the earlier of the Trigger Date (as defined) and October 14, 2024 in the aggregate principal amount of $11,734,979.48. Following the consummation of the Merger, the portion of the debenture constituting $3,659,146.15 would be exchanged for a Senior Secured Convertible Debenture issued by LEGACY INVO (“LEGACY INVO Debenture”). The portion of this debenture constituting $8,075,833.33 would be converted into shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of LEGACY INVO (the “LEGACY INVO Preferred Stock”).
     
  If any event of default occurs, the outstanding principal amount of this debenture, plus accrued but unpaid interest, and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Investor’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the interest rate on this debenture shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 15% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.
     
  The Company and the Investor agreed to enter into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission which shall cover the shares of common stock of LEGACY INVO issuable upon the conversion of (i) the LEGACY INVO Debenture and (ii) the shares of LEGACY INVO Preferred Stock.
     
  Following the consummation of the Merger, the Investor would invest $500,000, which shall be repaid using the gross proceeds of a public offering and such principal amount of the LEGACY INVO Debenture shall be increased accordingly.
     
  As consideration for the Investor entering into this agreement, the Investor agreed to fund the $275,000 remaining from the May Debenture.

 

12
 

 

  Provided that the total amount of proceeds raised in a public offering equals or exceeds $5,000,000, the Investor shall purchase $4,000,000, subject to certain terms.
     
  150,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock are to be issued to the Investor, representing approximately 5.0% of the fully diluted outstanding capital of LEGACY INVO, after giving effect to the consummation of the Merger, but prior to the issuance of shares in a financing.
     
  Extend the maturity date to the earlier of (a) October 14, 2024, and (b) the date of the consummation of the Merger or the date of termination of the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the SPA Amendment, the parties agreed to an updated closing schedule for LEGACY NAYA’s purchases of LEGACY INVO’s Series A preferred stock at a purchase price of $5.00 per share. From May 1, 2024, to June 24, 2024, LEGACY NAYA acquired 140,000 shares of LEGACY INVO Series A preferred stock for gross proceeds of $700,000 and pursuant to the fourth amendment to the Merger Agreement an additional 27,500 shares were purchased for $137,500.

Litigation

 

On October 7, 2024, a former employee that had resigned filed a complaint against the Company alleging that she is entitled to severance and other benefits pursuant to a good reason paragraph in her employment agreement. The Company denies the allegations of wrongdoing in the complaint and intends to vigorously defend the matter. Since this case is in an early stage, the Company is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of the matter and cannot reasonably estimate the potential loss or range of loss the Company may incur.

 

LEGACY NAYA is not currently subject to any other material legal proceedings; however, it could be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, or legal proceedings it considered immaterial may in the future become material. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can, among other things, be time consuming and expensive to resolve, and can divert management resources.

Subject to the rights of the holders of any senior securities, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, or sale of the Company, each holder of Series C-2 Preferred shall be entitled to receive its pro rata portion of an aggregate payment equal to the greater of (a) 125% of the Conversion Amount with respect to such shares, and (b) the amount as would be paid on the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C-2 Preferred, determined on an as-converted basis, without regard to any beneficial ownership limitation.

 

Other than those rights provided by law, the Series C-2 Preferred has no voting rights. The Series C-2 Preferred is only redeemable upon a “Bankruptcy Triggering Event” or a “Change of Control” that occurs 210 days after the closing date of the Merger.
