Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements

NOTE 1: GENERAL

Indaptus Therapeutics, Inc. (“Indaptus”), formerly “Intec Parent Inc.”, was established and incorporated in Delaware on February 24, 2021, as a private Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Intec Pharma Ltd., (“Intec Israel”), a former publicly traded company.

Also, in connection with the Merger, Indaptus changed its name from “Intec Parent, Inc.” to “Indaptus Therapeutics, Inc.”. Following completion of the Merger, shares of Indaptus common stock commenced trading at market open on August 4, 2021, on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the name “Indaptus Therapeutics, Inc.” and under the symbol “INDP”.

Risks and uncertainties

The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other companies of similar size in its industry, including, but not limited to, the need for successful development of products, the need for additional capital (or financing) to fund operating losses (see below), competition from substitute products and services from larger companies, protection of proprietary technology, patent litigation, and dependence on key individuals.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant financial market volatility and uncertainty in the past year. The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the United States and global economies and may affect the Company’s operations and those of third parties on which the Company relies, including by causing disruptions in the supply of its product candidates and the conduct of future clinical trials. For example, the pandemic has caused our good manufacturing practice (GMP)(“GMP”) process to take longer than expected. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic may affect the operations of the FDA and other health authorities, which could result in delays of reviews and approvals, including with respect to the Company’s product candidates. Additionally, while the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of, the COVID-19 pandemic is difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce the Company’s ability to access capital, which could negatively impact its short-term and long-term liquidity. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the complete financial effect will be to the Company, capital raise efforts and additional development of the Company’s technologies may be negatively affected.

Going concern and management’s plans

The Company has incurred net losses and utilized cash in operations since inception, has an accumulated deficit as of March 31,June 30, 2022 of $19.022.9 million, and expects to incur future additional losses as clinical testing and commercialization of the Company’s product candidates will require significant additional financing. The Company believes it has adequate cash to fund its operations for at least one year after the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Management plans to raise additional capital through equity and/or debt financings, or other capital sources, including potential collaborations, licenses, and other similar arrangements. However, these plans are not entirely within its control and cannot be assessed as being probable of occurring. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital may be adversely impacted by potential worsening of global economic conditions and the recent disruptions to, and volatility in, financial markets in the United States and worldwide resulting from the developing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. If the Company is unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, it would be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate its research and development programs or other operations. If any of these events occur, the Company’s ability to achieve the development and commercialization goals would be adversely affected.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and S-X Article 10 for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and notes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of March 31,June 30, 2022, the consolidated results of operations and changes in stockholders’ equity for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 and cash flows for the three-monthsix-month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2022, and 2021.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed in the 10-K on March 21, 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2021, included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements was derived from the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, but does not include all disclosures required by US GAAP for annual financial statements.

The results for the three-monthsix-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.

Principles of consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Indaptus and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. The most significant estimates relate to the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation and the determination of period-end obligations to certain contract research organizations. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Loss per share

Loss per share, basic and diluted, is computed on the basis of the net loss for the period divided by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common stock and of common stock equivalents outstanding when dilutive. Common stock equivalents include outstanding stock options and warrants which are included under the treasury stock method when dilutive.

The following number of stock options, and warrants were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented (share data):

 SCHEDULE OF ANTI-DILUTIVE SECURITIES

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of March 31,June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of checking and money market deposits. The Company’s cash balances exceed those that are federally insured; however, the Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial strength of the depository institutions in which the cash and cash equivalents are held. To date, the Company has not recognized any losses caused by uninsured balances.

Marketable securities

The Company’s investment in marketable securities includedincludes U.S. treasury bonds that are classified as available-for-sale securities pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320 “Investments — Debt Securities”. These investments are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), or AOCI, as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company uses an estimated useful life of three years for employee-related computers and other office equipment and five years for furniture. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease-term or the estimated useful life of the related asset.

Patents

The Company expenses patent costs, including related legal costs, as incurred and records such costs within general and administrative expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, including the cost of salaries, share-based compensation expenses, payroll taxes and other employee benefits, subcontractors and materials used for research and development activities, including clinical trials and professional services. All costs associated with research and developmentsdevelopment are expensed as incurred.

The Company accrues for expenses resulting from obligations under agreements with contract research organizations (“CROs”), contract manufacturing organizations (“CMOs”), and other outside service providers for which payment flows do not match the periods over which services or materials are provided to the Company. Accruals are recorded based on estimates of services received and efforts expended pursuant to agreements with CROs, CMOs, and other outside service providers. These estimates are typically based on contracted amounts applied to the proportion of work performed and determined through analysis with internal personnel and external service providers as to the progress or stage of completion of the services. In the event advance payments are made to a CRO, CMO, or outside service provider, the payments will be recorded as a prepaid asset, which will be amortized or expensed as the contracted services are performed.

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred 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 and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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 effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future. As of March 31,June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expenses.

Stock-based compensation

The Company measures and records the expense related to stock-based payment awards based on the fair value of those awards as determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option pricing model as of the date of grant. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of the individual grant, generally equal to the vesting period, on a straight-line basis.

The Black-Scholes model requires the use of highly subjective and complex assumptions, which determine the fair value of stock-based awards, including the option’s expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The Company estimates the fair value of options granted by using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions:

Expected Volatility—The Company estimated volatility for option grants by evaluating the historical volatility of a peer group of companies for the period immediately preceding the option grant for a term that is approximately equal to the options’ expected term.

Expected Term—The expected term of the Company’s options represents the period that the stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The expected term was estimated using the simplified method for employee stock options since the Company does not have adequate historical exercise data to estimate the expected term.

Risk-Free Interest Rate—The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield currently available on US Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term that is equal to the options’ expected term at the grant date.

Dividend Yield—The Company has not declared or paid dividends to date and does not anticipate declaring dividends. As such, the dividend yield has been estimated to be zero.

The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur.

Fair value measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company follows the established framework for measuring fair value and providing disclosures about fair value measurements.

The accounting guidance classifies fair value measurements in one of the following three categories for disclosure purposes:

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, requires all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, and defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. As of March 31,June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, assets held for sale, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these items.

NOTE 3: MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The Company’s investment in marketable securities included U.S. treasury bonds with maturities of less than one year. These investments are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded in AOCI. These investments are categorized as Level 2.

As of March 31,June 30, 2022, the amountfair value of the marketable securities is $2,961,46018,753,081. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had nomarketable securities.

The unrealized losses for the three-month periodthree and six-month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2022 amounted to $9,22117,716 and $26,937. respectively.

NOTE 6: STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In June 2021, the Intec Israel shareholders voted to approve the Indaptus 2021 Stock Incentive Plan, an equity incentive plan for grants to employees, officers, consultants, directors and other service providers, (the “2021 Plan”), that became effective upon the closing of the Merger. The 2021 Plan provides for up to 1,864,963 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights and other forms of stock-based compensation. The 2021 Plan permits the Company’s board to change the type, terms and conditions of awards as circumstances may change. This flexibility to adjust the type of compensation to be granted is particularly important given current economic and world events.

On January 26, 2022, Indaptus’ board of directors approved a grant of options to purchase 289,200shares of common stock to executives. The options are exercisable at $4.90per share, vest over three years, and expire ten yearsafter grant.

On February 1, 2022, Indaptus’ board of directors approved a grant of options to purchase 90,000shares of common stock to a new employee. The options are exercisable at $4.97per share, vest over three years, and expire ten yearsafter grant.

On February 25, 2022, Indaptus’ board of directors approved a grant of options to purchase 60,000shares of common stock to an executive. The options are exercisable at $4.18per share, vest over three years, and expire ten years after grant.

On June 21, 2022, Indaptus’ board of directors approved a grant of options to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock to an employee. The options are exercisable at $2.06 per share, vest over four years, and expire ten yearsafter grant.

A summary of the stock option activity during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022, is presented in the table below:

 SCHEDULE OF SHARE BASED COMPENSATION

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $831,183 and $20,445 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The following table summarizes the total stock-based compensation expense included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented:

SCHEDULE OF STOCK BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSES 

As of March 31,June 30, 2022, total compensation cost not yet recognized related to unvested stock options was approximately $6.75.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.32.0 years.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires estimates of highly subjective assumptions, which affect the fair value of each stock option. The weighted average inputs used to measure the value of the options granted during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 are presented in the table below. The weighted average fair value of stock options issued during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022 was $3.89 3.78per share.

Litigation

On July 13, 2022, LTS Lohmann Therapie-System AG (“LTS”) filed a Request for Arbitration with the International Chamber of Commerce, naming as respondent the Company’s subsidiary Intec Israel. The Request alleges that it is entitled to payment of Euro 2 million for reimbursement under a process development agreement following the Company’s discontinuation of the Accordion Pill business. As of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements there were no pending legal proceedings againstJune 30, 2022, the Company that are expectedaccrued Euro 2 million (approximately $2.1 million) with respect to have a material adverse effect on cash flows, financial condition or results of operations. its potential obligation to LTS.

From time to time, the Company could become involved in additional disputes and various litigation matters that arise in the normal course of business. These may include disputes and lawsuits related to intellectual property, licensing, contract law and employee relations matters. Periodically, the Company reviews the status of significant matters, if any exist, and assesses its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal claim is considered probable and the amount can be estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based on the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, the Company reassesses the potential liability related to pending claims and litigation.

Leases

On October 1, 2021, the Company entered into a noncancelable two-year operating lease agreement for approximately 2,000square feet of office space in San Diego, California. The base rent is $7,999per month with an increase of 3% after the first anniversary of the lease term commencement, which was November 1, 2021. The lease liability is measured at a discount rate of 7%.

Future minimum annual lease payments under the Company’s noncancelable operating lease as of March 31,June 30, 2022 are as follows:

Overview

We are a pre-clinical biotechnology company developing a novel and patented systemically-administered anti-cancer and anti-viral immunotherapy. We have evolved from more than a century of immunotherapy advances. Our approach is based on the hypothesis that efficient activation of both innate and adaptive immune cells and associated anti-tumor and anti-viral immune responses will require a multi-targeted package of immune system activating signals that can be administered safely intravenously. Our patented technology is composed of single strains of attenuated and killed, non-pathogenic, Gram-negative bacteria, with reduced i.v. toxicity, but largely uncompromised ability to prime or activate many of the cellular components of innate and adaptive immunity. This approach has led to broad anti-tumor and anti-viral activity, including safe, durable anti-tumor response synergy with each of five different classes of existing agents, including checkpoint therapy, targeted antibody therapy and low-dose chemotherapy in pre-clinical models. Tumor eradication by our technology has demonstrated activation of both innate and adaptive immunological memory and, importantly, does not require provision of or targeting a tumor antigen in pre-clinical models. We have carried out successful GMP manufacturing of our lead clinical candidate, Decoy20, and completed other IND-enabling studies.

Unlike many competitor products, our technology does not depend on targeting with or to a specific antigen, providing broad applicability across multiple indications. Our product candidates are designed to have a much shorter half-life and produce less systemic exposure than small molecule, antibody or human cell-based therapies, potentially reducing the risk of non-specific auto-immune reactions. Our technology produces single agent activity and/or combination therapy-based durable responses of lymphoma, hepatocellular, colorectal and pancreatic tumors and has also produced significant single agent activity against chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) and chronic human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections in pre-clinical models. We have recently filed an Investigational New Drug, or an IND, application withIn May 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared our Investigational New Drug, or IND, application for a Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with advanced solid tumors where currently approved therapies have failed and plan to commence a Phase 1 clinical trial in the second half of 2022 targeting solid tumors, after the IND application becomes effective.tumors. Target indications include, but not limited to, colorectal, hepatocellular (± HBV), bladder, cervical and pancreatic carcinoma.

Decoy Merger

On August 3, 2021, we completed our merger with Decoy following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, dated as of March 15, 2021 among the Company, Decoy, Intec Israel, Domestication Merger Sub Ltd., an Israeli company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, or Domestication Merger Sub, and Dillon Merger Subsidiary Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, or Merger Sub, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into Decoy, with Decoy surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, or the Merger, and the business conducted by Decoy became the business conducted by the combined company.

Previously, on July 27, 2021, we, Intec Israel and Domestication Merger Sub completed the previously announced domestication merger pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Domestication Merger Agreement, whereby Domestication Merger Sub merged with and into Intec Israel, with Intec Israel being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours. At the time of the Domestication Merger, Intec Israel continued to possess all of its assets, rights, powers and property as constituted immediately prior to the Domestication Merger and continued to be subject to all of its debts, liabilities and obligations as constituted immediately prior to the Domestication Merger.

Also, in connection with the Merger, we changed our name from “Intec Parent, Inc.” to “Indaptus Therapeutics, Inc.”.

Following completion of the Merger, our shares of common stock commenced trading at market open on August 4, 2021, on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the name “Indaptus Therapeutics, Inc.” and ticker symbol “INDP” and under the new CUSIP 45339J 105.

Winding Down of Accordion Pill Business

In connection with the completion of the Merger, on August 4, 2021, our board of directors determined to wind down the Accordion Pill business of Intec Israel which was completed as of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

In connection with the winding down, we laid off all our employees and we terminated our contracts with counterparties, including the termination of the Process Development Agreementprocess development agreement between Intec Israel and LTS Lohmann Therapie Systeme AG (LTS), and the termination of the unprotected lease agreement between Intec Israel and its landlord for the lease of offices located in Jerusalem, Israel.

Private Placement

In connection with the Merger, on July 23, 2021, or the Signing Date, we entered into a securities purchase agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with a certain institutional investor or the Purchaser, pursuant to which we agreed to sell and issue, in a private placement, or the Private Placement, a pre-funded warrant to purchase up to 2,727,273 shares of our common stock, or the Pre-funded Warrant, and a warrant to purchase up to 2,727,273 of our common stock, or the Warrant, at a purchase price of $10.99 per Pre-funded Warrant and associated Warrant, for aggregate gross proceeds to us of approximately $30.0 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Warrant has a term of five and one-half years, is exercisable immediately following the issuance date and has an exercise price of $11.00 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth therein.

On August 3, 2021, the Private Placement closed and in September 2021, the Pre-Funded Warrants were fully exercised. In addition, we issued to the placement agent a warrant to purchase 136,364 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $13.75.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into a registration rights agreement, or the Registration Rights Agreement, with the Purchaser requiring us to file a resale registration statement, or the Resale Registration Statement, with the SEC to register for resale of the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant and Warrant. We subsequently filed a registration statement registering for resale the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant and Warrant which became effective on September 29, 2021.

Components of Operating Results

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Research and development expenses account for a significant portion of our operating expenses. Research and development expenses consist primarily of fees paid to contract research organizations, or CROs, and contract manufacturing organizations, or CMOs, as well as compensation expenses for certain employees involved in the planning, managing, and analyzing the work of the CROs and CMOs.

We expect our research and development expenses to increase substantially for the foreseeable future as we continue to ramp up our clinical development activities and incur expenses associated with hiring additional personnel to support our research and development efforts. Our expenditures on future nonclinical and clinical development programs are subject to numerous uncertainties in timing and cost to completion. The duration, costs and timing of pre-clinical studies and clinical trials and development of product candidates will depend on a variety of factors, including:

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses include compensation, employee benefits, and stock-based compensation for executive management, finance administration and human resources, facility costs (including rent), professional service fees, and other general overhead costs, including depreciation, to support our operations.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase substantially for the foreseeable future as we continue to increase our headcount to support our research and development activities and operations generally, the growth of our business and, if any of our product candidates receive marketing approval, commercialization activities. We also expect to continue to incur additional expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including expenses related to compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, additional director and officer insurance expenses, investor relations activities and other administrative and professional services.

Other Income, Net

Other income includes interest earned on deposits and other items of income, expense, gain and loss that are incidental to the core operations of the Company.

Liquidity and Resources

Since our inception, we have funded our operations primarily through public and private offerings of our equity securities. As of March 31,June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of approximately $36.2$33.0 million. As of December 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $39.1 million.

In August 2021, we sold a Pre-funded Warrant to purchase 2,727,273 of our common stock and a Warrant to purchase 2,727,273 of our common stock in a private placement. The Warrant is exercisable at an exercise price of $11.00 per share. In September 2021, the Pre-funded Warrant was fully exercised at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The Pre-funded Warrant and the Warrant were sold together at a combined price of $11.00, including the pre-funded exercise price. The total net proceeds were approximately $27.3 million, after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses in the amount of approximately $2.7 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $3.7$5.5 million for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2021 followingwhich was primarily due to the issuance of a series of Simple Agreements for Future Equity (SAFEs) to accredited investors.

Current Outlook

Following the Private Placement that closed in August 2021, we believe that we have adequate cash to fund our ongoing activities for more than one year from the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We are closely monitoring ongoing developments in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. As of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the complete financial effect will be to us, capital raise efforts and additional development of our technologies may be negatively affected.

Developing drugs, conducting clinical trials, obtaining commercial manufacturing capabilities and commercializing products is expensive and we will need to raise substantial additional funds to achieve our strategic objectives. We will require significant additional financing in the future to fund our operations, including if and when we progress into additional clinical trials, obtain regulatory approval for one or more of our product candidates, obtain commercial manufacturing capabilities and commercialize one or more of our product candidates. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:

Until we can generate significant recurring revenues, we expect to satisfy our future cash needs through capital raising. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. If funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate research or development programs and other operations and make necessary change to our operations to reduce the level of our expenditures in line with available resources.

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Critical Accounting Estimates

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities and expenses. Significant accounting policies employed by us, including the use of estimates, are presented in our annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, and their accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC. We periodically evaluate our estimates, which are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require our subjective or complex judgments, resulting in the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. If actual performance should differ from historical experience or if the underlying assumptions were to change, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially impacted.

We believe that the following accounting policies are those most critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Accounting for Research and Development Costs

We record the costs associated with services provided by CROs and CMOs as they are incurred. Though the scope and timing of work are generally based on signed agreements, some judgement is involved in determining periodic expenses because payment flows do not always match the periods over which services and materials are provided to us. As a result, our management is required to make estimates of services received and efforts expended pursuant to agreements established with these third-parties at each period-end date. During the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2022, we incurred approximately $1.1$1.5 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of research and development expenses. As of March 31,June 30, 2022, we recorded an accrued liability of approximately $0.2 million for expenses incurred, but not yet invoiced, and a prepaid expenseexpenses and deposits of $0.1approximately $0.7 million for payments made that relate to future periods. Over or under estimating the services received or efforts expended could cause us to overstate or understate research and development expenses incurred within a reporting period, and related accrued and prepaid expenses.

Stock-Based Compensation

We measure and record the expense related to stock-based payment awards based on the fair value of those awards on the date of grant. We use the Black-Scholes-Merton, or Black-Scholes, option pricing model to establish the fair value. We recognize stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of the individual grant, generally equal to the vesting period, on a straight-line basis. The Black Scholes model requires that our management make certain estimates regarding the expected stock price volatility, expected term, risk–free interest rate, and dividend yield to derive an estimated fair value. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease the related determination of fair value, increasing or decreasing the compensation expense related to a particular stock-based award.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31,June 30, 2022. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of March 31,June 30, 2022, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

From time to time, we may become involved in variousaddition lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. ThereExcept as set forth below, there are currently no pending material legal proceedings, and we are currently not aware of any legal proceedings or claims against us or our property that we believe will have any significant effect on our business, financial position or operating results. None of our officers or directors is a party against us in any legal proceeding.

On July 13, 2022, LTS filed a Request for Arbitration with the International Chamber of Commerce, naming as respondent the Company’s subsidiary Intec Israel. The Request alleges that it is entitled to payment of Euro 2 million for reimbursement under a process development agreement following our discontinuation of the Accordion Pill business.
