1.Nature of operations and going concern risk

 

Appili Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company” or “Appili”) is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to advancing the global fight against infectious diseases by matching clearly defined patient needs with drug development programs that provide solutions to existing challenges patients, doctors and society face. Appili has one wholly owned subsidiary, Appili Therapeutics Inc. USA. The Company is domiciled in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The Company exists under the Ontario Business Corporations Act, and its Class A common shares (“common shares”) are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbol “APLI”. The Company also trades in the United States on the OTCPink Exchange. The address of its principal place of business is #21-1344 Summer Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

 

Aditxt Transaction

 

On April 1, 2024 (as amended on July 1, 2024 and further amended on July 17, 2024, August 21, 2024, December 15, 2024 and January 31, 2025 as per Note 13, Subsequent Events), the Company entered into a definitive arrangement agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) pursuant to which Aditxt, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Adivir, Inc. (“Adivir” or the “Buyer”), agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Class A common shares (the “Appili Shares”) of the Company by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Ontario Business Corporations Act (the “Transaction”).

 

Under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, shareholders of the Company (the “Appili Shareholders”) will receive (i) 0.0000686251 of a share of common stock (each whole share, an “Aditxt Share”) of Aditxt (the “Share Consideration”) and (ii) US$0.0467 (or approximately CAD$0.0672 with reference to the Bank of Canada closing exchange rate on December 31, 2024) for each Appili Share held (the “Cash Consideration” and together with the Share Consideration collectively, the “Transaction Consideration”) representing implied total consideration per Appili Share of approximately US$0.0467 (or approximately CAD$0.066 with reference to the Bank of Canada closing exchange rate on December 31, 2024) based on the closing price of the Aditxt shares on February 13, 2025.

 

The Transaction will be effected by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement pursuant to the Ontario Business Corporations Act. Under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, Adivir will acquire all of the issued and outstanding Appili Shares, with each Appili Shareholder receiving the Transaction Consideration. In connection with the Transaction, each outstanding option and warrant of the Company will be cashed-out based on the implied in-the-money value of the Transaction Consideration.

 

In connection with the Transaction Aditxt will: (i) agree to repay no less than 50% in outstanding senior secured debt at the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) and to repay the remaining outstanding senior secured debt by no later than February 28, 2025; (ii) assume all of the Company’s remaining outstanding liabilities and indebtedness, and (iii) agree to satisfy certain payables of the Company at Closing as further detailed in the Arrangement Agreement. In connection with this arrangement Aditxt has financed certain amounts that were owed by the Company with respect to the Transaction and its on-going operations.

 

The Transaction was approved by the requisite majority of Company shareholders in a vote held on November 6, 2024. Amongst other customary closing conditions, the Transaction is conditional upon Aditxt raising at least US$20 million in financing (the “Aditxt Financing”) prior to Closing.

1.Nature of operations and going concern risk (continued)

 

Aditxt Transaction (continued)

 

Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver, if applicable) of all closing conditions, closing is currently expected to occur the first quarter of calendar 2025. The Arrangement Agreement contains customary terms and conditions, including non-solicitation provisions which are subject to Appili’s right to consider and accept a superior proposal subject to a matching right in favour of Aditxt. The Arrangement Agreement also provides for the payment of a termination fee of $1.25 million in certain circumstances.

 

As part of a waiver provided by the Company on December 15, 2024, to extend the outside date of the Transaction (the “Outside Date”), Aditxt agreed to pay the Company US$250,000 as partial compensation for additional expenses incurred due to the delay. The Company has recorded this amount as a reduction to General and Administrative expenses.

 

Going concern

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS Accounting Standards”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due.

 

For the nine months ended December 31, 2024, the Company reported a loss of $2,852,742 (December 31, 2023 - $2,677,449) and an accumulated deficit of $71,945,858 (December 31, 2023 - $67,989,655). In addition to repaying or refinancing the Company’s debt facilities that mature in the next twelve months and funding its ongoing working capital requirements, the Company must secure sufficient funding through financing activities to cover research and development expenditures to advance the programs in its pipeline that are planned for the next twelve months. These circumstances lend significant doubt as to the ability of the Company to fund planned expenditures and, accordingly, the appropriateness of the use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to repay or refinance its debt facilities and fund working capital requirements to advance its programs in its pipeline is dependent on successfully closing the proposed transaction with Aditxt or raising additional financing through equity and/or non-dilutive funding and/or partnerships. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing when required, Appili may have to substantially reduce or eliminate planned expenditures. Management is evaluating alternatives to secure additional financing so that the Company can continue to operate as a going concern. Nevertheless, there is no assurance that these initiatives will be successful.

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and balance sheet classifications that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its

1Nature of operations and going concern risk (continued)

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and balance sheet classifications that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations.

Additionally, in accordance with the USAFA contract, the Company underwent an audit conducted by Defense Contract Audit Agency (“DCAA”) to assess the accuracy of its billings, compliance with the contract, and to assess the G&A rate applied. The audit determined that the G&A rate previously used (56.53%) should have been 80.05%.

ACOA Loans 

 

Total contributions received, less amounts that have been repaid as at December 31, 2024 for ACOA loans, were $3,401,963 (March 31, 2024 - $3,528,671). Certain ACOA loans require approval by ACOA before the Company can pay dividends or other distributions, or before there is any change in ownership of the Company.

 

Bloom Burton unsecured bridge loans

 

On June 28, 2023 (as amended July 17, 2024 and as further amended on September 30, 2024, December 15, 2024), the Company obtained an unsecured bridge loan (the “Bridge Loan”) from Bloom Burton, a related party (see note 6) amounting to $300,000. The Bridge Loan bears interest at 1% per annum for the first month increasing to 2% thereafter and matures the earlier of the closing of the Transaction or February 28, 2025. Prior to the maturity date, interest accrued under the Bridge Loan is added to the principal amount.

 

On April 26, 2024, the Company obtained a second bridge loan from Bloom Burton amounting to $300,000 (the “Additional Bridge Loan”). The bears an interest at 10% per annum and is due the earlier of April 26, 2025, or the occurrence of a change in control of the Company. On June 28, 2024, the Company and Bloom Burton agreed to advance an additional $100,000 and increase the principal outstanding on the Additional Bridge Loan to $400,000.

 

The Additional Bridge Loan was recorded at fair value at inception. The fair value was calculated using the discounted cashflow method using a discount rate of 24% based on the estimated market interest rate of comparable debt. The fair value for the Additional Bridge Loan was determined to be $356,472 and the discount of $43,528 has been accounted for as a transaction with a shareholder and credited to equity as contributed surplus.

 

Interest on the second bridge loan is accrued monthly commencing May 31, 2024. Prior to the maturity date, interest accrued under the loan is added to the principal amount.

 

LZH Secured Loans

 

On April 1, 2024, the Company and the lender, LZH, entered into a consent and waiver agreement (as amended July 17, 2024, and as further amended on September 30, 2024, December 15, 2024) which restructured the terms of the two loan arrangements:

 

The first tranche of the loan, including all fees and accrued interest thereon, will be repayable in two lump sum payments:

 

oA payment of US$2,100,132 was due on the closing of the Transaction with Aditxt if the transaction is closed by June 30, 2024. In the event the transaction closes after that date the payment will increase by a late payment fee of US$1,553 per day until the payment is made. Subject to satisfaction (or waiver, as applicable) of the requisite closing conditions, the Company currently expects the transaction to close in February 2025.

oA payment of US$2,047,216 due on February 28, 2025.

 

The second tranche of the loan, including all fees and accrued interest thereon, will be repayable in two lump sum payments:

 

oA payment of $1,454,121 was due on the closing of the Transaction with Aditxt if the transaction is closed by June 30, 2024. In the event the transaction closes after that date, the payment will increase by a late payment fee of $1,062 per day until the payment is made. Subject to satisfaction (or waiver, as applicable) of the requisite closing conditions, the Company currently expects the transaction to close in February 2025.

 

oA payment of $1,383,116 due on February 28, 2025.

 

The consent and waiver agreement provided the requisite consent to the Transaction (see note 1) and agreed to waive the requirement to secure additional funding and maintain a minimum cash balance of US$360,000 until February 28, 2025, or in the event that the Transaction does not close.

 

With respect to the interest payment due on March 31, 2024, of $191,545 relating to the first tranche and $96,610 relating to the second tranche, LZH agreed to capitalize the interest and add it to the principal of the loans.

 

The Company agreed to pay LZH legal costs associated with the amendment amounting to $54,000, which has been recorded as an expense in the interim condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss for the period.

 

The Company has accounted for this arrangement as an extinguishment of the initial two tranches. The Company has elected to account for the new tranches at fair-value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”) at inception and has valued the instruments based on the new terms under the consent and waiver agreement. The instruments will subsequently be measured at fair value at each balance sheet date, with changes in value being recognized in net income (loss). A loss on extinguishment of $727,884 was recognized as a result of this arrangement. A discount rate of 24% was applied to the estimated cashflows in determining the fair value.

 

As at December 31, 2024, the fair value of the loans was determined using a discount rate of 24% applied to the estimated cash flows resulting in a loss of $789,747. If the discount rate used by management was 5% higher or 5% lower in the December 31, 2024 valuation the fair value of the loans would decrease by $27,117 or increase by $27,344, respectively.

 

In the determination of their fair value as at December 31, 2024, management assumed that the Transaction with Aditxt would close on February 28, 2025 (the currently agreed upon outside date for the Transaction), and has included late payment fees of US$141,036 (CAD$197,375) and $97,704 for the first and second tranche respectively, as the transaction had not closed by December 31, 2024.

The Board of Directors of the Company has established a stock option plan (the “Plan”) under which options to acquire common shares of the Company are granted to directors, employees and other advisors of the Company. The maximum number of common shares issuable under the Plan shall not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares at the date of the grant. If any option expires or otherwise terminates for any reason without having been exercised in full, or if any option is exercised in whole or in part, the number of shares in respect of which option is expired, terminated or was exercised shall again be available for the purposes of the Plan.

 

Stock options are granted with an exercise price determined by the Board of Directors, which is the market price of the shares on the day preceding the award. The term of the option is determined by the Board of Directors, not to exceed ten years from the date of grant. The vesting of the options is determined by the Board and is typically 33 1/3% every year after the date of grant.

11Financial instruments

 

Financial instruments are defined as a contractual right or obligation to receive or deliver cash on another financial asset. The following table sets out the approximate fair values of financial instruments as at the consolidated statements of financial position dates with relevant comparatives:

 

   December 31, 2024   March 31, 2024 
   Carrying Value   Fair Value   Carrying Value   Fair Value 
   $   $   $   $ 
Cash   186,166    186,166    94,493    94,493 
Amounts Receivable   1,668,704    1,668,704    1,086,725    1,086,725 
Accounts Payable and accrued liabilities   4,434,443    4,434,443    4,183,176    4,183,176 
Long-term debt   11,284,254    11,284,254    8,184,857    8,184,857 

 

Assets and liabilities, such as commodity taxes, that are not contractual and arise as a result of statutory requirements imposed by governments, do not meet the definition of financial assets or financial liabilities and are, therefore, excluded from amounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities in this table.

 

Fair value of items, which are short-term in nature, has been deemed to approximate their carrying value. The above-noted fair values, presented for information only, reflect conditions that existed only at December 31, 2024, and do not necessarily reflect future value or amounts, which the Company might receive if it were to sell some or all of its assets to a willing buyer in a free and open market.

 

The fair value of the long-term debt is estimated based on the expected interest rates for similar borrowings by the Company at the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of financial position dates. At December 31, 2024, the fair value is estimated to be equal to the carrying amount. The inputs into the determination of the fair value of the long-term debt, including the discount rate, are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

 

The following table outlines the contractual repayments for long-term debt, which includes loans with a set repayment schedule, as well as loans that are repayable based on a percentage of revenues, for the Company’s financial liabilities. The long-term debt is comprised of the contributions received described in note 7 as at December 31, 2024:

 

   Total   Year 1   Years 2 to 3   Years 4 to 5   After 5 Years 
   $   $   $   $   $ 
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   4,434,443    4,434,443    -    -    - 
Long-term debt   13,876,347    10,678,468    329,316    320,537    2,548,026 
    18,310,790    15,112,911    329,316    320,537    2,548,026 

 

12Contingencies

 

The Company received a demand letter May 2024 from a former employee for wrongful termination with a demand amount of US$360,000. The Company’s management believes the claim is frivolous and does not consider the exposure to such claim to be material, although this cannot be predicted with certainty.

 

13Subsequent Events

 

On January 31, 2025, the Company, Aditxt, and Adivir agreed to waive the Outside Date for the Arrangement from January 31, 2025 to February 28, 2025, to allow Aditxt additional time to secure the required financing. As part of this extension, Aditxt committed to paying the Company US$250,000 in February 2025 as partial compensation for the additional expenses incurred due to the delay.

 

In connection with this extension, the Company entered into a consent and waiver agreement with its lender, LZH, under which LZH agreed to continue consenting to the Transaction and waived compliance requirements related to the Company’s failure to repay the Outstanding Loan by January 31, 2025. As a result, the loan repayment deadline has been extended to February 28, 2025.

 

Additionally, the Company entered into a separate consent and waiver agreement with Bloom Burton, extending the repayment date for the Bridge Loan to February 28, 2025.
