NOTE 1 – OrganizationDescription of Business and Basis of Presentation

 

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation (the “Company”), a Delaware Corporation, was originally incorporated as Original Source Entertainment, Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 20, 2009. Prior to the closing of the Acquisition (as defined below), the Company completed a series of steps contemplated by a Plan of Conversion pursuant to which the Company, among other things, changed its name to NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation, increased its authorized number of shares of common stock from 45,000,000 to 100,000,000, increased its authorized number of shares of preferred stock from 5,000,000 to 10,000,000 and reincorporated in Delaware. On July 20, 2017, the Company, through a wholly owned acquisition subsidiary, acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of NeuroOne, Inc. (“NeuroOne”) in a reverse triangular merger and reorganization pursuant to Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was accounted for as a capital transaction, or reverse recapitalization. NeuroOne was the accounting acquirer in this transaction. As such, the historical financial statements of NeuroOne reflect operations of the Company for all periods presented prior to the date of the Acquisition. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements subsequent to the Acquisition include those of the Company, as well as those of its wholly owned subsidiary NeuroOne.

Subsequent to the Acquisition, the Company’s operating activities became the same as those of NeuroOne,is an early-stage medical technology company developing comprehensive neuromodulation cEEGfocused on the development and sEEG monitoring, ablation,commercialization of thin film electrode technology for continuous electroencephalogram (cEEG) and stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) recording, brain stimulation and ablation solutions to diagnose and treatfor patients withsuffering from epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors and other related brain related disorders that may benefit fromdisorders. Additionally, we are investigating the potential applications of our technology associated with artificial intelligence.

 

To date, the Company has recorded no product sales and has a limited expense history. The Company is a development stage company and its activities to date have included raising capital to fund the development of its proprietary technology and seek regulatory clearances required to initiate commercial activities.

 

The Company is based in Eden Prairie,Minnetonka, Minnesota.

 

Acquisition of NeuroOne, Inc.

The Acquisition was consummated on July 20, 2017 (the “Closing”) and, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, (i) all outstanding shares of common stock of NeuroOne, par value $0.0001 per share (the “NeuroOne Shares”), were exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Company Shares”), based on the exchange ratio of 17.0103706 Company Shares for every one NeuroOne Share (the “Exchange Ratio”), resulting in the Company issuing, on July 20, 2017, an aggregate of 6,291,994 Company Shares for all of the then-outstanding NeuroOne Shares, (ii) all outstanding options of NeuroOne were replaced with options to purchase Company Shares based on the Exchange Ratio, with corresponding adjustments to their respective exercise prices, pursuant to which the Company reserved 992,265 Company Shares for issuance upon the exercise of options, (iii) all warrants of NeuroOne were replaced with warrants to purchase Company Shares and (iv) the Company assumed the outstanding convertible promissory notes of NeuroOne. NeuroOne options had been issued pursuant to the NeuroOne 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the merger agreement, the Company assumed the NeuroOne 2016 Equity Incentive Plan upon the Closing.

Pursuant to the Acquisition, the Company acquired 100% of NeuroOne Shares in exchange for the issuance of Company Shares and NeuroOne became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. Also at the Closing, Mr. Samad (the majority owner of the Company prior to the Acquisition) tendered for cancellation 3,500,000 Company Shares held by him as part of the conditions to Closing.

All issued and outstanding common stock share amounts, options for common stock and per share amounts contained in the consolidated financial statements were retroactively adjusted to reflect the Exchange Ratio for all periods presented.

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The condensed consolidated financial statements may not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal yearnine month transition period ended December 31, 2017September 30, 2018 included in the AnnualTransition Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.10-KT. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017September 30, 2018 was derived from the audited financial statements of the Company.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, the Company reclassified all fair market valuation adjustments related to the warrant liability and to the premium conversion derivative from interest expense to a separate line item on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

NOTE 2 – Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since inception and hashad an accumulated deficit of $7,942,556$11,810,534 as of June 30,December 31, 2018. The Company does not have adequate liquidity to fund its operations throughout fiscal 20182019 without raising additional funds. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this condition. Management intends to continue to seek additional financing to fund operations. If the Company is not able to raise additional working capital, it will have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company and the development of its technology.

 

From inception through June 30,Through December 31, 2018, the Company has completed a $528,000 unsecured loan financings for gross proceeds of $283,000,financing, a $253,000 short-term promissory note financing (which notes were amended and restated to become convertible promissory notes as described below)notes), a $1,625,120 convertible promissory note financing of a planned $2.5 million subscription and a second $1,540,000 convertible promissory note financing of a planned $2.0$2 million subscription. In addition, the Company entered into a private placement transaction of its common stock beginning in July 2018, and as replaced in December 2018, whereby $1.9 million in gross proceeds were raised out of a planned $11.8 million maximum under the subscription amounts through December 31, 2018. See Note 1413 – Subsequent Events for financing transactionsfinancings that have closed after June 30,December 31, 2018. The Company does not have adequate liquidity to fund its operations throughout fiscal 20182019 without raising additional funds. Management intends to continue to seek additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations. However, if the Company is unable to raise additional funds, or the Company’s anticipated operating results are not achieved, management believes planned expenditures may need to be reduced in order to extend the time period that existing resources can fund the Company’s operations. If management is unable to obtain the necessary capital, it may have to cease operations.

NOTE 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Management’s Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash. The Company’s cash is held by one financial institution in the United States. Amounts on deposit may at times exceed federally insured limits. Management believes that the financial institution is financially sound, and accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to the financial institution. As of June 30,December 31, 2018, the Company did not have any deposits in excess of federally insured amounts.amounts by $134,109.

Common Stock Valuation

 

Due to the limited market liquidity for the Company’s common stock, the Company utilized methodologies in accordance with the framework of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Technical Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation, to estimate the fair value of its common stock. The valuation methodology includes estimates and assumptions that require the Company’s judgment. These estimates and assumptions include a number of objective and subjective factors, including external market conditions affecting the biotechnology industry sector, and the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, such as an offering or sale. Significant changes to the key assumptions used in the valuations may result in different fair values of common stock at each valuation date.

The Company estimated its enterprise value on a continuing operations basis, using the market approach, with certain adjustments relating to the thinly traded status of the Company. The traded price of the Company was deemed not to be an entirely reliable indication of fair market value given the lack of trading liquidity. Therefore, in addition to applying partial weighting to the traded price, the Company relied on forward revenue multiples from guideline public companies (“GPC”) for calendar year 2019 and 2020. The resulting equity value from the GPC method was allocated to common stock using the option pricing method, and a discount for lack of marketability was applied. Based on the above methodology and weightings, the Company derived a valuation conclusion of $2.20 and $2.30 per common share as of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, respectively.

The fair value the Company’s common stock is used as an input into the fair value determination of the warrants, stock option or other equity awards that the Company has issued or are outstanding liabilities at the reporting date.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s accounting for fair value measurements of assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements on a recurring or nonrecurring basis adheres to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the Company at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

 

As of JuneDecember 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the fair values of cash, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and the unsecured loans approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these assets or liabilities. The estimated fair value of the short-term and convertible promissory notes of the Company was based on amortized cost which was deemed to approximate fair value. The fair value of the warrant liability and the premium conversion derivatives associated with the short-term and convertible promissory notes of the Company were based on both the estimated fair value of our common stock of $2.20 and $2.30 as of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, respectively, and cash flow models discounted at current implied market rates evidenced in recent arms-length transactions representing expected returns by market participants for similar instruments and are based on Level 3 inputs. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during the three and six months ended June 30,December 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

The fair value of financial instruments measured on a recurring basis is as follows:

Intellectual Property

 

NeuroOne LLC, the predecessor to NeuroOne,The Company has entered into two licensing agreements with major research institutions, which allows for access to certain patented technology and know-how. Payments under those agreements not related to royalties, are capitalized and amortized to general and administrative expense over the expected useful life of the acquired technology.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets, which consists entirely of licensed intellectual property for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether or not the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset. Through June 30,December 31, 2018, the Company has not impaired any long-lived assets.

 

Debt Issuance Costs

 

Debt issuance costs are recorded as a reduction of the convertible promissory notes and short-term notes when applicable. Amortization of debt issuance costs is calculated using the straight-line method over the term of the short-term notes and convertible promissory notes, which approximates the effective interest method, and is recorded in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development expenses are comprised ofmay include costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including clinical trial costs, manufacturing costs for both clinical and pre-clinical materials as well as other contracted services, license fees, and other external costs. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities are expensed when the activity is performed or when the goods have been received, rather than when payment is made, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC)ASC 730,Research and Development.

 

Warrant Liability

 

The Company issued warrants to purchase equity securities in connection with the issuance or amendment of short-term andthe convertible promissory notes. The Company accounts for these warrants as a liability at fair value when the number of shares is not fixed and determinable in cases where warrant pricing protections in future equity financings are not available to other common stockholders. Additionally, issuance costs associated with the warrant liability are expensed as incurred and reflected as interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company adjusts the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the warrants for any period when pricing protections in future equity financings remain in place, or until such time, if any, as the number of shares to be exercised becomes fixed, at which point the warrants will be classified in stockholders’ (deficit) equity provided that there are sufficient authorized and unissued shares of common stock to settle the warrants and redeem any other contracts that may require settlement in shares of common stock. Any future change in fair value of the warrant liability, when outstanding, is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Premium Debt Conversion Derivatives

 

The Company evaluates all conversion and redemption features contained in a debt instrument to determine if there are any embedded derivatives that require separation from the host debt instrument. An embedded derivative that requires separation is bifurcated from its host debt instrument and a corresponding discount to the host debt instrument is recorded. The discount is amortized and recorded to interest expense over the term of the host debt instrument using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method.  The separated embedded derivative is accounted for separately on a fair market value basis. The Company records the fair value changes of a separated embedded derivative at each reporting period in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company determined that the redemption features under the amended short-term promissory notes and convertible promissory notes qualified as embedded derivatives and were separated from their debt hosts.

 

Income Taxes

 

For the Company, 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 base 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. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Net Loss Per Share

 

For the Company, basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

 

Diluted earnings or loss per share of common stock is computed similarly to basic earnings or loss per share except the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of any common stock equivalents, if dilutive. The Company’s convertible short-term notes, convertible promissory notes, warrants, and stock options while outstanding are considered common stock equivalents for this purpose. Diluted earnings is computed utilizing the treasury method for the warrants and stock options. Diluted earnings with respect to the short-term notes and convertible promissory notes utilizing the if-converted method was not applicable during the three and six month periods ended June 30,December 31, 2018 and 2017 as no conditions required for conversion had occurred during these periods. No incremental common stock equivalents were included in calculating diluted loss per share because such inclusion would be anti-dilutive given the net loss reported for the three and six month periods ended June 30,December 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

The following potential common shares were not considered in the computation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the three and six month periods ended June 30,December 31, 2018 and 2017:

  For the Three Months Ended  For the Six Months Ended

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2017-09,Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting (ASU 2016-09), which provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. This pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has adopted this standard for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11,Earnings Per Share, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and Derivatives and Hedging, which changes the accounting and earnings per share for certain instruments with down round features. The amendments in this ASU should be applied using a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the beginning of the fiscal year or retrospective adjustment to each period presented and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 for public business entities, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of this new guidance and has not yet determined its impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07,Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2018-07), which expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. An entity should generally apply the requirements of Topic 718 to nonemployee awards except in circumstances where there is specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost. ASU 2018-07 specifies that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The guidance also clarifies that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under ASC606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers(ASC 606). This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of ASC 606. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13). The new guidance modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820 as follows:

Removals: the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; the policy for timing of transfers between levels; and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements.

Modifications: for investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value, an entity is required to disclose the timing of liquidation of an investee’s assets and the date when restrictions from redemption might lapse only if the investee has communicated the timing to the entity or announced the timing publicly; and the amendments clarify that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date.

Additions: the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period; and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements.

This guidance is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should all be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. Early adoption is permitted. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of ASU 2018-13 and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its financial statements.

NOTE 4 – Commitments and Contingencies

 

Legal 

 

From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business.  In May 2017, NeuroOne received a letter from PMT Corporation (“PMT”), the former employer of Mark Christianson and Wade Fredrickson.  PMT claimed that these officers had breached their restrictive covenant obligations with PMT by virtue of their work for NeuroOne and such officer’s prior work during employment with the prior employer, that these officers had breached their confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations to PMT and federal and state law by misappropriating confidential and trade secret information, and that the Company is responsible for tortious interference with the contracts.  The letter demanded that Mr. Fredrickson (who resigned from the Company in June 2017), Mr. Christianson and NeuroOne cease and desist all competitive activities, that Mr. Fredrickson step down from his position and that Mr. Christianson and NeuroOne provide the former employer access to NeuroOne’s systems to demonstrate that it is not using trade secrets or proprietary information nor competing with the former employer.

 

On March 29, 2018, the Company was served with a complaint filed by PMT adding the Company, NeuroOne and Mr. Christianson to its existing lawsuit against Mr. Fredrickson.  In the lawsuit, PMT claims that Mr. Fredrickson and Mr. Christianson breached their non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disclosure obligations, breached their fiduciary duty obligations, were unjustly enriched, engaged in unfair competition, engaged in a civil conspiracy, tortiously interfered with PMT’s contracts and prospective economic advantage, and breached a covenant of good faith and fair dealing.  Against Mr. Fredrickson, PMT also alleges that he intentionally or negligently spoliated evidence, made negligent or fraudulent misrepresentations, misappropriated trade secrets in violation of Minnesota law, and committed the tort of conversion and statutory civil theft.  Against the Company and NeuroOne, PMT alleges that the Company and NeuroOne were unjustly enriched and engaged in unfair competition.  PMT asksasked the Court to impose a constructive trust over the shares held by Mr. Fredrickson and Mr. Christianson and to award compensatory damages, equitable relief, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest. The Company, NeuroOne and Mr. Christianson (who has not worked for PMT since 2012) intend to defend themselves vigorously.  

 

On April 18, 2018, Mr. Christianson, the Company and NeuroOne, Inc. filed a motion for dismissal, which has not yet beenwas heard by the Court. They argueCourt on October 11, 2018. The motion for dismissal states that: the contract claims against Mr. Christianson fail because his agreement was not supported by consideration; the Minnesota Uniform Trade Secrets Act preempts plaintiff'splaintiff’s claims for unfair competition, civil conspiracy and unjust enrichment; plaintiff fails to state a claim regarding alleged breach of the duties of loyalty and good faith/fair dealing; plaintiff cannot legally obtain a constructive trust; plaintiff has insufficiently pled its tortious interference claims; and Plaintiff has not stated a claim for unfair competition. On January 7, 2019, the judge granted the motion for dismissal with respect to PMT’s claim for breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, and denied the motion for dismissal with respect to the other claims presented. The Company, NeuroOne, Inc. and Mr. Christianson (who has not worked for PMT since February 2012) intend to continue to defend themselves vigorously.

 

The outcome and potential loss related to this matter is unknown and no reserve has been accrued for as of June 30, 2018.December 31, 2018 and as of the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Short-Term Promissory Notes

 

In August 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized, and theThe Company issued short-term unsecured and interest-free promissory notes (the “Short-Term Notes”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $253,000 prior to issuance costs of $3,030in August 2017 which were discounted from the Short-Term Notes and were amortized ratably to interest expense over the original term of the Short-Term Notes up though November 2017. On November 30, 2017, theincluded free standing equity warrants. The Short-Term Notes were subsequently amended in November 2017 to extend the maturity date from February 18,and increase the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the related warrants. The Short-Term Notes were also amended in March 2018 to July 31, 2018become convertible, include new interest payment provisions and new conversion features and to increaseprovide for the issuance of a replacement warrant coverage(the “Replacement Warrant”) and an additional warrant (the “Additional Warrant”) described more fully below. Effective July 2, 2018, the Company entered into debt conversion agreements with each Short-Term Note subscriber to 189,750(i) convert the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest (the “Outstanding Balance”) under the Short-Term Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock purchase warrants (as amended,based on the “OriginalOutstanding Balance divided by $1.80 per share (the “Short-Term Note Conversion Shares”); (ii) cancel and extinguish the Short-Term Notes; and (iii) amend and restate the Replacement Warrants and Additional Warrants, as described more fully below, to make them immediately exercisable upon the conversion, at a per share exercise price equal to $1.80 per share. As consideration for the early conversion of the Short-Term Notes, the Company issued each subscriber a new warrant (the “Short-Term Note Payment Warrants”). The Original Warrants had, exercisable for up to the number of shares of common stock equal to the number of Short-Term Note Conversion Shares received by such subscriber; at a term of 5 years and anper share exercise price of $1.80 per share. The Short-Term Note Payment Warrants became exercisable commencing on July 2, 2018, and would have been immediately exercisable upon maturity of the Short-Term Notes prior to the amendment described below. expire on November 21, 2021.

The November 30, 2017 amendment resulted in a substantial modification to the original Short-Term Notes andwhereby additional warrant coverage was accounted for under the provisions of extinguishment accounting.

The Short-Term Notes were subsequently amendedadded and restated on March 12, 2018 (the “Amended and Restated Short-Term Notes”). The Amended and Restated Short-Term Notes became convertible promissory notes that bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and require the Company to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the maturity date of July 31, 2018 (the “Short-Term Note Maturity Date”). Pursuant to the terms of each Amended and Restated Short-Term Note and a consent signed by the Company and each holder, the Original Warrants under the Short-Term Notes were modified whereby each subscriber received a replacement warrant (the “Replacement Warrants”) upon the issuance of the Amended and Restated Short-Term Note, in lieu of the Original Warrant. In addition, each holder was issued an additional warrant (the “Additional Warrants”). The Amended and Restated Short-Term Notes were classified as long-term convertible promissory notes on the accompanying condensed balance sheets at June 30, 2018 given their conversion into shares of common stock on July 2, 2018. See Note 14 – Subsequent Events with regard to the conversion and extinguishment of the Amended and Restated Short-Term Notes and the issuance of amended and restated Replacement Warrants and Additional Warrants.

Replacement Warrants

Each Replacement Warrant issued on March 12, 2018 granted the holder the option to purchase up to the number of shares of capital stock of the Company equal to the New Round Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of the Amended and Restated Short-Term Note held by such holder at a per share exercise price equal to either (i) the actual per share price of New Round Stock if the Amended and Restated Short-Term Notes converted in connection with a Short-Term Note Qualified Financing or (ii) the price at which the Amended and Restated Short-Term Notes converted in connection with a change of control transaction. The Replacement Warrants were exercisable commencing on the Conversion Date and would have expired on November 21, 2021. The exercise price and number of the shares issuable upon exercising the Replacement Warrants were subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described therein.

The Replacement Warrants were deemed to be a free-standing instrument and were accounted for as a liability given the variable number of shares issuable in connection with a possible change of control conversion event. The Company recorded an initial liability of $137,722 upon issuance with an offset to extinguishment loss described further below. The fair value changes of the warrant liability associated with the Short-Term Notes were recorded at each reporting date in the condensed consolidated statements of operations which amounted to an expense of $12,701 and $10,330 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. A Monte Carlo simulation model was used to estimate the aggregate fair value of the Replacement Warrants as of June 30, 2018. Input assumptions used were as follows: risk-free interest rate of 2.65 percent; expected volatility of 50 percent; expected life of 3.39 years; and expected dividend yield of 0 percent. The underlying stock price used in the analysis was on a non-marketable basis and was according to a separate independent third-party valuation analysis since there was no active trading market for the Company’s common stock.

Additional Warrants

Each Additional Warrant issued on March 12, 2018 granted the holder the option to purchase up to the number of shares of capital stock of the Company equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Amended and Restated Short-Term Note held by such holder and (ii) 0.75; at a per share exercise price of $1.80. The Additional Warrants were exercisable commencing on the Conversion Date and would have expired on November 21, 2021. The exercise price and number of the shares issuable upon exercising the Additional Warrants were subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described therein.

The Additional Warrants were deemed to be free-standing instruments and were accounted for as equity as there were no variable terms. The Additional Warrants amounted to 189,750 shares as of both the March 12, 2018 amendment date and as of June 30, 2018 with terms that largely paralleled the provisions of the Original Warrants except that the Additional Warrants were exercisable on the Conversion Date as opposed to the Short-Term Note Maturity Date and the expiration date was moved up to November 21, 2021 from July 31, 2023. The fair value differential between the Original Warrants and the Additional Warrants was a reduction of $22,624. The fair value change was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the accompanying condensed balance sheets and was included as part of the extinguishment loss discussed further below.

2016 Convertible Promissory Notes

 

From November 2016 to June 2017, the Company issued convertible promissory notes (the “Convertible Notes”) and common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1,625,120 and common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) and entered into subscription agreements with subscribers (the “2016 Private Placement”).subscribers. The Company amended the Convertible Notes in December 2016 and November 2017 and the Warrants in June 2017 and November 2017 to, among other things, change the terms of the underlying Warrants that includeincluded the removal of down-rounddown round pricing protection provisions as described more fully below. Seeprotection.

On July 2, 2018, the Company entered into debt conversion agreements with each Convertible Note 14 – Subsequent Events with regardsubscriber to (i) convert the conversion ofOutstanding Balance under the Convertible Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock based on the corresponding extinguishmentOutstanding Balance divided by $1.80 per share (the “2016 Note Conversion Shares”); (ii) cancel and extinguish the Convertible Notes; and (iii) amend and restate the Warrants to make them immediately exercisable upon the conversion, at a per share exercise price equal to $1.80 per share. As consideration for the early conversion of the Convertible Notes, and the issuance of amended and restated warrants on July 2, 2018.

The Convertible Notes were unsecured. The Convertible Notes accrued interest at a fixed rate of 8 percent per annum and required the Company issued each subscriber an additional new warrant (the “2016 Note Payment Warrants”), exercisable for up to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the earlier of July 31, 2018 or the consummation of the next equity or equity-linked round of financing resulting in more than $3.0 million in gross proceeds (a “Qualified Financing”). If a Qualified Financing had occurred before July 31, 2018, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Convertible Notes would have automatically converted into the securities issued by the Company in such financing based on the greater number of securities resulting from either the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Convertible Notes divided by $1.80, or the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Convertible Notes multiplied by 1.25, divided by the price paid per security in the Qualified Financing. If the Company failed to complete a Qualified Financing by July 31, 2018, the Convertible Notes would have been immediately due and payable on such date.

If a change of control transaction or initial public offering occurred prior to a Qualified Financing, the Convertible Notes would have, at the election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal of the Convertible Notes, either been payable on demand as of the closing date of such transaction, or been convertible into shares of common stock immediately prior to such transaction at a price per share equal to the lessernumber of the2016 Note Conversion Shares received by such subscriber; at a per share value as determined by the Board as if in connection with the grantingexercise price of stock-based compensation, or in a private sale to a third party in an arms-length transaction, or at the$1.80 per share consideration to be paid in such transaction. Change of control means a merger or consolidation with another entity in which the Company’s stockholders do not own more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting power of the surviving entity or the disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.share. The 2016 Note Payment Warrants became exercisable commencing on July 2, 2018 and expire on November 21, 2021.

Prior to the June 2017 amendment, the Warrants granted holders the option to purchase either (i) if exercised after conversion of the Convertible Notes, the number of shares equal to the number of shares received by the holders upon the conversion of the Convertible Notes, or (ii) if exercised prior to conversion of the Convertible Notes, the number of shares of common stock equal to the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Convertible Note held by such warrant holder divided by $1.80. The Warrants were immediately exercisable on the date of issuance and would have expired on November 21, 2021. In June 2017, however, the Company amended the terms of the Warrants under the Convertible Notes to be exercisable only in the event of conversion of the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the related Convertible Notes. The amount of warrant shares to be issued became contingent and were based on the number of shares of common stock received by the holder of the Convertible Notes upon conversion of such holder’s Convertible Notes, and at an exercise price equal to the same price per share of the securities issued in the Qualified Financing. The Warrants would have expired on November 21, 2021 in the event of a Qualified Financing or would have expired unissued if the notes were not converted.

The Warrants were deemed to be a free-standing instrument and were accounted for as a liability given the variable number of shares issuable in connection with a possible change of control conversion event. A Monte Carlo simulation model was used to estimate the aggregate fair value of the Warrants. Input assumptions used were as follows: risk-free interest rate of 2.65 and 2.08 percent as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively; expected volatility of 50 percent as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017; expected life of 3.39 and 3.89 years as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively; and expected dividend yield of 0 percent as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The underlying stock price used in the analysis was on a non-marketable basis and was according to a separate independent third-party valuation analysis since there was no active trading market for the Company’s common stock. The Convertible Note proceeds assigned to the Warrants were zero and $440,919 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, which represented their fair value at issuance, and were discounted from the Convertible Notes and reflected as a warrant liability. The discount was amortized to interest expense over the original term of the Convertible Notes using the straight-line method which approximated the effective interest method and was fully amortized by December 31, 2017. The amortization expense was $198,295 and $317,157 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company also recorded the fair value changes of the warrant liability associated with the Convertible Notes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations which amounted to an expense of $116,111 and benefit of $(19,038) for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and a benefit of $(14,865) and $(19,253) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The November 2017 amendment to the notes resulted in a substantial modification to the original Convertible Notes whereby the maturity date was extended and the terms associated with the Warrants were revised. The Company recorded the Convertible Note amendment under the provisions of extinguishment accounting. The fair value of the underlying convertible notesConvertible Notes was $97,223 lower than the carrying value of the Convertible Notes on the date of the modification. The $97,223 difference was recorded as a discount to the debt and was being amortized over the amended term of the Convertible Notes. The amortization recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $34,970 and zero, respectively, and $69,555 and zero during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

At the time of their issuance, the Convertible Notes containedwith a 125% conversion premiumgain on convertible note extinguishments in the event that a Qualified Financing occurs at a price under $2.25 per common share. The Company determined that the redemption feature under the Convertible Notes qualified as an embedded derivative and was separated from its debt host. The bifurcation of the embedded derivative from its debt host resulted in a discount to the Convertible Notes in the amount of zero and $213,961 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The discount was being amortized to interest expense over the original term of the Convertible Notes using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method and was fully amortized by December 31, 2017. The amortization expense was $86,163 and $133,481 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The embedded derivative was accounted for separately on a fair market value basis. The Company recorded the fair value changes of the premium debt conversion derivative associated with the Convertible Notes in theaccompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The discount of $97,223 was then amortized from November 21, 2017 to December 31, 2017 totaling $15,756.

During the three months ended December 31, 2017, interest on the principal was $32,502 and interest related to amortization of discounts related to the bifurcation of premium derivative liability, separation of warrants, revaluation discounts and issuance costs amounted to $261,749. The fair value changes related to the underlying premium conversion derivative and warrant liability amounted to a benefit of $(313,303)($108,641) and an expense of $74,623 for$272,059, respectively, during the three monthsmonth period ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and a benefit of $(310,637) and an expense of $74,806 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

In connection withAs noted above, the Convertible Notes the Company incurred issuance costs in the amount of $151,915, which included (i) a placement agent cash fee, which was $113,610 for the Convertible Notes issued through June 19, 2017 (ii) the obligation to issue a warrant to the placement agent (the “placement agent warrant”) which would have had an exercise price of $2.00 per share of common stock with a total fair value of $4,855 on date of Convertible Note issuance, and (iii) legal expenses of $33,450. The placement agent warrant was issuable at the time the private placement transaction closed which had not occurred as of June 30, 2018. The placement agent warrant was also immediately exercisable on the date of issuance and would have expired five years following the date of issuance. The placement agent was to receive a placement agent warrant to purchasewere converted into shares of common stock in an amount equal to 8% of the common stock (or common stock equivalents) purchased by investors in the event that the 2016 Private Placement transaction was fully subscribed. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company accrued for the estimated obligation to issue a placement agent warrant for the purchase of approximately 63,000 shares of common stock had the 2016 Private Placement been fully subscribed. The Company recorded an issuance cost discount to the Convertible Notes in the amount of zero and $39,781 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and was fully amortized by December 31, 2017. During the three and six months ending June 30, 2017, $19,506 and $31,867 was amortized to interest expense, respectively. The balance of the issuance costs in the amount of $22,316 and $38,119 was attributed to the Warrants and was immediately recorded as interest expense upon issuancenot outstanding during the three and six monthsmonth period ended June 30, 2017, respectively.December 31, 2018.

 

Effective as of July 2,

2017 Convertible Notes

From October 2017 to May 2018, the Company entered into a debt conversion agreement with each of the Convertible Note subscribers to convert the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock, to cancel and extinguish the Convertible Notes and amend and restate the Warrants. See Note 14 – Subsequent Events for additional information on the conversion.

2017 Convertible Notes

On October 4, 2017, the Company initially entered into a subscription agreement with certain investorsissued convertible notes (the “Subscribers”), pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement (the “Private Placement”), agreed to issue and sell to the Subscribers 8% convertible promissory notes (each, a “Note” and collectively, the “2017 Convertible Notes”) and warrants (the “New Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock in the event of a conversion event. The number of shares and pricing per share of the New Warrants are based on the underlying conversion event and are exercisable for five years commencing on the triggering conversion event. The subscription agreement, the 2017 Convertible Notes and New Warrants were amended on December 14, 2017 to move up the maturity date of the 2017 Convertible Notes from October 4, 2022 to December 31, 2018, remove subordination provisions and simplify the conversion provision of the 2017 Convertible Notes in the event of a qualified financing as described more fully below, to modify the exercise price of the New Warrants and to increase the authorized subscription amount to $1,500,000. In May 2018, the Board approved an increase in the authorized subscription from $1,500,000 to $2,000,000 and extended the offering period from the five month anniversary of the initial closing to the eight month anniversary of the initial closing. The initial closing of the Private Placement was consummated on October 4, 2017, and the Company entered into additional subscription agreements and issued 2017 Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1,540,000 to the Subscribers through June 30, 2018.

The 2017 Convertible Notesthat bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock (the “New Warrants”). The Company initially entered into a subscription agreement with certain accredited investors and closed the initial private placement of the 2017 Convertible Notes in October 2017. In December 2017, the Company and holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Convertible Notes entered into an amended and restated subscription agreement to amend the terms of the 2017 Convertible Notes and New Warrants. On December 31, 2018, the 2017 Convertible Notes were amended again to extend the maturity date from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019. The amendment was accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring given the Company’s financial condition and given the concession granted by the lenders with regards to pushing out the maturity date to June 30, 2019 with no corresponding compensation paid for the extension. The future undiscounted cash flows of the of the 2017 Convertible Notes as amended exceeded their carrying value as of December 31, 2018. As such, no gain was recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2018 and no adjustments were made to the 2017 Convertible Note carrying value.

The 2017 Convertible Notes require the Company to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon on December 31, 2018June 30, 2019 (the “2017 Convertible Notes Maturity Date”). If the Company consummates an equity round of financing resulting in more than $3 million in gross proceeds before December 31, 2018June 30, 2019 (the “2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing”), the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the 2017 Convertible Notes shall automatically convert into the securities issued by the Company in the 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing equal to the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the 2017 Convertible Notes divided by 80% of the price per share of the securities issued by the Company in the 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing. The New Warrants also become exercisable upon a 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing for an amount of shares equal to the number of shares received by the holder in the 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing at the same price per share of the securities issued in the 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing.

Prior to the December 2017 amendment, if the Company had raised more than $3,000,000 in an equity financing before October 4, 2022, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the 2017 Convertible Notes would have automatically converted into the securities issued by the Company in such financing based on the greater number of such securities resulting from either (i) the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the 2017 Convertible Notes divided by $2.25 or (ii) the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the 2017 Convertible Notes multiplied by 1.25, divided by the price paid per security in such financing. The New Warrants would have also become exercisable in conjunction with the 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing.

Lastly, if a change of control transaction occurs prior to the earlier of a 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing or the 2017 Convertible Notes Maturity Date, the 2017 Convertible Notes would, at the election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal of the 2017 Convertible Notes, either become payable on demand as of the closing date of such transaction, or become convertible into shares of common stock immediately prior to such transaction at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the per share value of the common stock as determined by the Board as if in connection with the granting of stock based compensation or in a private sale to a third party in an arms-length transaction or (ii) at the per share consideration to be paid in such transaction. Change of control means a merger or consolidation with another entity in which the Company’s stockholders do not own more than 50% of the outstanding voting power of the surviving entity or the disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. The New Warrants also become exercisable upon a change of control transaction for an amount of shares equal to the number of shares received by the holder upon conversion in connection with such transaction at the same price per share that the 2017 Convertible Notes converted in the change of control transaction.

 

The December 2017 amendment resulted in a substantial modification to the original 2017 Convertible Notes whereby the maturity date was moved up to December 2018 from October 2022 and the terms associated with the embedded features were revised as described previously. The Company recorded the 2017 Convertible Note amendment under the provisions of extinguishment accounting. The fair value of the underlying Convertible Notes was $27,371 lower$294,615 higher than the facecarrying value of the Convertible Notes net of unamortized debt discount on the date of the modification. The $294,615 difference as well as legal costs associated with the amendment in the amount of the 2017 Convertible Notes. The $27,371 difference was$8,945 were recorded as a loss on convertible notes extinguishment totaling $303,560 in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2017. After the modification, there remained a debt discount to the debtof $27,371 of which $6,574 and is being$1,286 was amortized over the amended term of the 2017 Convertible Notes. The amortization recorded during the three and six months ended June 30,December 31, 2018 was $6,503 and $12,935,2017, respectively.

 

The 2017 Convertible Notes contain a conversion discount in the event of a 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing to equal the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the 2017 Convertible Notes divided by 80% of the price per share of the securities issued by the Company in the 2017 Convertible Notes Qualified Financing. The embedded feature qualified as an embedded derivative and was separated from its debt host. The bifurcation of the embedded derivative from its debt host resulted in a discount to the 2017 Convertible Notes in the amount of $77,085 and $168,383$128,525 for the convertible debt issued during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.December 31, 2017; there were no issuances of 2017 Convertible Notes during the three months ended December 31, 2018. The discount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2017 Convertible Notes using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method. The amortization expense was $53,987$62,158 and $81,008$3,815 for the three and six months ended June 30,December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The embedded derivative is accounted for separately on a fair market value basis. The Company recorded the fair value changes of the premium debt conversion derivative associated with all of the 2017 Convertible Notes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations which amounted to an expense of $4,126$6,265 and $5,449$466 for the three and six months ended June 30,December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

The New Warrants were deemed to be a free-standing instrument and were accounted for as a liability given the variable number of shares issuable in connection with a change of control conversion event. A Monte Carlo simulation model was used to estimate the aggregate fair value of the New Warrants.

Consequently, the Company reported no income tax benefit during the three and six months ended June 30,December 31, 2018 and 2017. If the Company’s assumptions change and the Company believes that it will be able to realize these deferred tax assets, the tax benefits relating to any reversal of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets will be recognized as a reduction of future income tax expense.  If the assumptions do not change, each period the Company could record an additional valuation allowance on any increases in the deferred tax assets.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 was signed into law making significant changes to the U.S. tax code.

Overview

We are a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of thin film electrode technology for continuous electroencephalogram (cEEG) and stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) recording, brain stimulation and ablation solutions for patients suffering from epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors and other related brain related disorders. Additionally, we are investigating the potential applications of our technology associated with artificial intelligence. We are based in Minnetonka, Minnesota.

To date, our primary activities have been limited to, and our limited resources have been dedicated to, performing business and financial planning, raising capital, recruiting personnel, negotiating with business partners and the licensors of our intellectual property and conducting research and development activities. Our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology is still under development, we do not yet have regulatory approval in any jurisdiction to sell any products and we have not generated any revenue.

We have incurred losses since inception. As of December 31, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $11.8 million, primarily as a result of expenses incurred in connection with our research and development programs, from general and administrative expenses associated with our operations and interest expense related to our debt. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating and net losses for the foreseeable future.


NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation

Form 10-Q

We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales unless and until we obtain marketing authorization to sell our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology from applicable regulatory authorities.

Our source of cash to date has been proceeds from the issuances of notes with warrants and common stock with warrants and unsecured loans. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Historical Capital Resources” below.

At December 31, 2018, we had $0.4 million in cash deposits. Our existing cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses in fiscal 2019. We need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include collaborations with third parties. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise such capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop and commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and future products and our ability to pursue our business strategy. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Funding Requirements and Outlook” below.

Financial Overview

Revenue

To date, we have not generated any revenue. We do not expect to generate revenue unless or until we develop, obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. If we fail to complete the development of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, or any other product candidate we may pursue in the future, in a timely manner, or fail to obtain regulatory approval, we may never be able to generate any revenue.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs including stock-based compensation for personnel in functions not directly associated with research and development activities. Other significant costs include legal fees relating to corporate matters, intellectual property costs, professional fees for consultants assisting with regulatory, clinical, product development, financial matters and product costs. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will significantly increase in the future to support our continued research and development activities, potential commercialization of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, if approved, and the increased costs of operating as a public company. These increases will include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees for legal and professional services, as well as other public-company related costs.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities in developing our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Research and development expenses include compensation and benefits for research and development employees including stock-based compensation, overhead expenses, cost of laboratory supplies, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing expenses, costs related to regulatory operations, fees paid to consultants and other outside expenses. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and costs incurred by third parties are expensed as the contracted work is performed.

We expect our research and development expenses to significantly increase over the next several years as we develop our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and conduct preclinical testing and clinical trials and will depend on the duration, costs and timing to complete our preclinical programs and clinical trials.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $0.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018, compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation associated with a consulting contract of $0.1 million related to fund raising,and to legal costs, accounting expenses and board of director fees of $0.3 million in the aggregate primarily related to increased public company related costs.


NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation

Form 10-Q

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses remained relatively unchanged period over period which was $0.2 million during both quarterly periods ending December 31, 2018 and 2017. The activity during both quarterly periods was attributed to supporting development activities, which primarily included salary-related expenses and costs related to consulting services, materials and supplies.

 Interest expense

Interest expense, for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was $0.3 million consisting of non-cash interest expense of $31,000 and amortization of debt discount costs of $0.2 million related to the Series 3 Notes described further below. Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2017 was $0.3 million consisting of interest expense of $40,000 and amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million related to the Series 1 Notes, Series 2 Notes and Series 3 Notes described further below.

Net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives

The net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $13,000 and $0.2 million, respectively. The change is due primarily to fluctuations in our common stock fair value and the number of potential shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the underlying Series 1 Notes, Series 2 Notes and Series 3 Notes while outstanding.

Loss on note extinguishments, net

There were no debt modifications during the three month period ended December 31, 2018 that were accounted for as a debt extinguishment.

Non-cash loss on note extinguishments, net for the three months ended December 31, 2017 was $0.4 million. The Series 1 Notes and Series 2 Notes were amended in November 2017 and the Series 3 Notes were amended in December 2017. The amendment for the Series 1 Notes extended the maturity date by approximately eight months and revised certain warrant and other provisions. The amendment for the Series 2 Notes added additional warrant coverage and extended the maturity date by approximately five months. The amendment for the Series 3 Notes accelerated the maturity date from October 2022 to December 2018 and revised certain formulaic provisions contained in the underlying embedded conversion features. As a result of the modifications made to the Series 1 Notes, Series 2 Notes and Series 3 Notes as discussed in this paragraph, we accounted for the amendments as a note extinguishment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historical Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2018, our principal source of liquidity consisted of cash deposits of $0.4 million. We have not generated any revenue, and we anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we develop our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and pursue pre-clinical and clinical trials, seek regulatory approvals, contract to manufacture any products, establish our own sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology under development, if approved, hire additional staff, add operational, financial and management systems and continue to operate as a public company.

Our source of cash to date has been proceeds from the issuances of notes with warrants, common stock with warrants and unsecured loans, the terms of which are further described below. See “—Funding Requirements and Outlook” below for the outstanding balances on our convertible notes.

2019 Private Placement

Series 3 Notes and Warrants

From October 2017 to May 2018, the Company issued convertible notes (the “Series 3 Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 million that bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock (the “Series 3 Warrants”). The Company initially entered into a subscription agreement with certain accredited investors and closed an initial private placement of the Series 3 Notes in October 2017. In December 2017 and December 2018, the Company and holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series 3 Notes entered into an amended and restated subscription agreement to amend the terms of the Series 3 Notes and Series 3 Warrants (the “Series 3 Amendments”). The Series 3 Notes, as amended, require us to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at June 30, 2019.

If the Company consummates an equity round of financing resulting in more than $3 million in gross proceeds before June 30, 2019 (the “Series 3 Qualified Financing”), the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 3 Notes shall automatically convert into the securities issued by us in the Series 3 Qualified Financing equal to the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Series 3 Notes divided by 80% of the price per share of the securities issued by us in the Series 3 Qualified Financing. As of the date of this Report, we have sold $2.2 million of the $3 million target. If a Change of Control (as defined below) occurs prior to the earlier of a Series 3 Qualified Financing or June 30, 2019, the Series 3 Notes would, at the election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Series 3 Notes, either become payable on demand as of the closing date of the Change of Control or become convertible into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Change of Control at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the per share value of the Common Stock as determined by our Board as if in connection with the granting of stock-based compensation or in a private sale to a third party in an arms-length transaction or (ii) at the per share consideration to be paid in the Change of Control (the date of any such conversion of the Series 3 Notes in connection with a Change of Control or Series 3 Qualified Financing, is referred to herein as the “Series 3 Conversion Date”). Change of Control means a merger or consolidation with another entity in which our stockholders do not own more than 50% of the outstanding voting power of the surviving entity or the disposition of all or substantially all of our assets. If we fail to complete a Series 3 Qualified Financing by June 30, 2019, the Series 3 Notes will be immediately due and payable on such date.

Prior to the Series 3 Amendments, if the Company raised more than $3 million in an equity financing before October 4, 2022, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 3 Notes would have automatically converted into the securities issued by the Company in such financing based on the greater number of such securities resulting from either (i) the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Series 3 Notes divided by $2.25 or (ii) the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Series 3 Notes multiplied by 1.25, divided by the price paid per security in such financing.


NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation

Form 10-Q

Each Series 3 Warrant grants the holder the option to purchase shares of our capital stock equal to the number of shares of capital stock of the Company received by the holder upon conversion of the Series 3 Notes at a per share exercise price equal to (i) the actual per share price of the securities issued in the Series 3 Qualified Financing if the Series 3 Notes convert in connection with such a qualified financing or (ii) the price at which the Series 3 Notes converted if they converted in connection with a Change of Control. The Series 3 Warrants are exercisable commencing on the Series 3 Conversion Date and expiring on the five year anniversary of that date. The exercise price and number of the shares of our capital stock issuable upon exercising the Series 3 Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, business combination or similar transaction, as described therein.

The Series 1 Notes, prior to the July 2, 2018 conversion and extinguishment, required us to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the earlier of July 31, 2018, or the consummation of the next equity or equity-linked round of financing resulting in more than $3 million in gross proceeds.

Unsecured Loans

In December 2018, the Company received gross proceeds from an unsecured loan represented by one promissory note in the amount of $100,000 from a stockholder owning over 5% of the Company’s common stock. The loan is interest free and requires that the Company repay the principal in full on the earlier of the closing of an equity round of financing of the Company resulting in more than $5 million in gross proceeds or December 12, 2019. In November 2018, the Company received cash gross proceeds from unsecured loans represented by two promissory notes in the amounts of $45,000 and $100,000 from a stockholder owning or a stockholder affiliated with stockholders owning over 5% of the Company’s common stock. The loans are interest free and require that the Company repay the principal in full on the earlier of the closing of an equity round of financing of the Company resulting in more than $5 million in gross proceeds or November 14, 2019.

In May 17, 2018, the Company received cash proceeds of $168,000 from unsecured loans, represented by two promissory notes from a stockholder owning or a stockholder affiliated with stockholders owning over 5% of the Company’s common stock. The loans are interest free and require that the Company repay the principal in full on the earlier to occur of (i) May 17, 2019 or (ii) the closing of an equity round of financing of the Company that raises more than $5 million in gross proceeds. The loans include customary events of default provisions.

On March 20, 2018, the Company received cash proceeds from an unsecured loan, represented by a promissory note, for $115,000 from a stockholder owning over 5% of the Company’s common stock. The loan is interest free and requires that the Company repay the principal in full on the earlier to occur of (i) March 20, 2019 or (ii) the closing of an equity round of financing of the Company that raises more than $3 million in gross proceeds. The loan includes customary events of default provisions.

Funding Requirements and Outlook

We have no current source of revenue to sustain our present activities, and we do not expect to generate revenue until, and unless, the FDA or other regulatory authorities approve our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology under development and we successfully commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity and debt financings as well as collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. We do not have any committed external source of funds. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a common stockholder. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third-party partners, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development, future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Form 10-Q

 Our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its report on our financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017, noting the existence of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This uncertainty arose from management’s review of our results of operations and financial condition and its conclusion that, based on our operating plans, we did not have sufficient existing working capital to fund our operating expenses.

As of December 31, 2018, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 3 Notes was $1,657,828. If we fail to complete the Series 3 Qualified Financing by June 30, 2019, the Series 3 Notes will be immediately due and payable on such date, and we may not have sufficient cash to pay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

We have agreements with the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (“WARF”) and the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (“Mayo”) that require us to make certain milestone and royalty payments.

Under the WARF License Agreement (the “WARF License”), we have agreed to pay WARF $55,000 (representing a license fee) upon the earliest to occur of the date we cumulatively raise at least $3 million in financing, which threshold was met, the date of a change of control, or our revenue reaching a specified threshold amount, and to pay $65,000 (representing reimbursement for costs incurred by WARF in maintaining the licensed patents) upon the earliest to occur of the date we cumulatively raise at least $5 million in financing, the date of a change of control, or our revenue reaching a specified threshold amount. The initial $55,000 payment was paid in April 2018. The $65,000 reimbursement milestone was paid in February 2019. We have also agreed to pay WARF a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the WARF License, with a minimum annual royalty payment of $50,000 for 2019, $100,000 for 2020 and $150,000 for 2021 and each calendar year thereafter that the WARF License is in effect. If we or any of our sublicenses contest the validity of any licensed patent, the royalty rate will be doubled during the pendency of such contest and, if the contested patent is found to be valid and would be infringed by us if not for the WARF License, the royalty rate will be tripled for the remaining term of the WARF License.

Under the Amended and Restated License and Development Agreement with Mayo (the “Mayo Development Agreement”), we have agreed to pay Mayo a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the Mayo Development Agreement. Nothing further is due until we start selling our products.

Refer to the Company’s Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the nine month transition period ended September 30, 2018 with regard to: “Item 1—Business—WARF License,” “Business—Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research License and Development Agreement,” “Item 1A—Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business—We depend on intellectual property licensed from Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation for our technology under development, and the termination of this license would harm our business” and “Item 1A—Risk Factors—We depend on our partnership with Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research to license certain know how for the development and commercialization of our technology.”

Our existing cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses throughout our fiscal year ending September 30, 2019. To continue to fund operations, we will need to secure additional funding. We may obtain additional financing in the future through the issuance of our Common Stock and securities convertible into our Common Stock, through other equity or debt financings or through collaborations or partnerships with other companies. We may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Further, we may not be able to pay off or modify terms of our existing debt coming due  in June 30, 2019, and any failure to raise capital or to amend existing debt that may be due as and when needed could compromise our ability to execute on our business plan.

The development of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology is subject to numerous uncertainties, and we have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be substantially different than we currently anticipate and could use our cash resources sooner than we expect. Additionally, the process of developing medical devices is costly, and the timing of progress in pre-clinical tests and clinical trials is uncertain. Our ability to successfully transition to profitability will be dependent upon achieving FDA approval and then a level of product sales adequate to support our cost structure. We cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable or generate positive cash flow from operating activities.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These accounting principles require us to make estimates and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the periods presented. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon which we rely are reasonably based upon information available to us at the time that we make these estimates and judgments. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial results will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates and judgments and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described in Note 3 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements” in this Report.

During the three months ended December 31, 2018, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the nine month transition period ended September 30, 2018.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in Part I “Financial Information”, Item I “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”) and the audited financial statements and related footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this Report are not statements of historical fact and are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements give current expectations or forecasts of future events or our future financial or operating performance. We may, in some cases, use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” or the negative of those terms, and similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes to identify these forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements reflect our management’s beliefs and views with respect to future events, are based on estimates and assumptions as of the date of this Report and are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in these forward-looking statements. We discuss many of these risks in greater detail under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and subsequent reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Overview

We were originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 20, 2009 as Original Source Entertainment, Inc. (“OSE”). OSE was originally formed to license songs to the television and movie industry. From our inception and prior to the acquisition of NeuroOne, Inc. (“NeuroOne”) on July 20, 2017 (the “Acquisition”), as described more fully below, our operations have been primarily limited to organizational, start-up, and capital formation activities. Upon completion of the Acquisition, more fully described below, our operations consist of the development of comprehensive neuromodulation cEEG and sEEG monitoring, ablation, and brain stimulation solutions to diagnose and treat patients with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, and other brain related disorders that may benefit from artificial intelligence. Our cortical strip technology under development has only been used by the Mayo clinic in five patients for research purposes and has not been tested in any clinical trials. We are based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.

The Acquisition was accounted for as a capital transaction, or reverse recapitalization. As a result, the financial information contained in this Report reflect solely the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary, NeuroOne, and its predecessor NeuroOne LLC (the “LLC”). To date, our primary activities have been limited to, and our limited resources have been dedicated to, performing business and financial planning, raising capital, recruiting personnel, negotiating with business partners and the licensors of our intellectual property and conducting research and development activities. Our cortical strip and grid electrode technology is preparing for an FDA submission for approval before the end of 2018 and our depth electrode technology is still under development, we do not yet have regulatory approval in any jurisdiction to sell any products and we have not generated any revenue.


We have incurred losses since inception. As of June 30, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $7.9 million, primarily as a result of expenses incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general and administrative expenses associated with our operations. We expect to continue to incur significant operating expenses and net losses for the foreseeable future.

We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales unless and until we obtain marketing authorization to sell our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology from applicable regulatory authorities.

Our source of cash to date has been proceeds from the issuances of notes and warrants and unsecured loans. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Historical Capital Resources” below.

At June 30, 2018, we had $22,608 in cash deposits. Our existing cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses for the remainder of 2018. We need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include collaborations with third parties. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise such capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop and commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and future products and our ability to pursue our business strategy. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Funding Requirements and Outlook” below.

Acquisition

On July 20, 2017, we entered into a Merger Agreement with NeuroOne and OSOK Acquisition Company to acquire NeuroOne (the “Merger Agreement”). The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated on July 20, 2017 and, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, (i) all outstanding shares of common stock of NeuroOne (“NeuroOne Shares”) were exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”), based on the exchange ratio of 17.0103706 shares of Common Stock, for every one NeuroOne Share, which totaled 6,291,994 shares of Common Stock, for all of the then-outstanding NeuroOne Shares, (ii) all NeuroOne options were replaced with options (“Company Options”) based on the Exchange Ratio, with corresponding adjustments to their respective exercise prices, (iii) all NeuroOne warrants were replaced with warrants to purchase Common Stock of the Company (“Company Warrants”) and (iv) we assumed the outstanding convertible promissory notes of NeuroOne. Accordingly, we acquired 100% of NeuroOne in exchange for the issuance of shares of our Common Stock and NeuroOne became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Our sole business is the business of NeuroOne. Our management’s discussion and analysis below is based on the financial results of NeuroOne. Except as otherwise indicated herein, all share and per share information in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section gives retroactive effect to the exchange of NeuroOne Shares, NeuroOne Options and NeuroOne Warrants for shares of Common Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants, respectively, in the Acquisition, as well as the corresponding exercise price adjustments for such Company Options.

Financial Overview

Revenue

To date, we have not generated any revenue. We do not expect to generate revenue unless or until we develop, obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. If we fail to complete the development of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, or any other product candidate we may pursue in the future, in a timely manner, or fail to obtain regulatory approval, we may never be able to generate any revenue.


General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs including stock-based compensation for personnel in functions not directly associated with research and development activities. Other significant costs include legal fees relating to corporate matters, intellectual property costs, professional fees for consultants assisting with regulatory, clinical, product development, financial matters and product costs. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will significantly increase in the future to support our continued research and development activities, potential commercialization of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, if approved, and the increased costs of operating as a public company. These increases will include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees for legal and professional services, as well as other public-company related costs.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities in developing our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Research and development expenses include compensation and benefits for research and development employees including stock-based compensation, overhead expenses, cost of laboratory supplies, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing expenses, costs related to regulatory operations, fees paid to consultants and other outside expenses. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and costs incurred by third parties are expensed as the contracted work is performed.

We expect our research and development expenses to significantly increase over the next several years as we develop our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and conduct preclinical testing and clinical trials and will depend on the duration, costs and timing to complete our preclinical programs and clinical trials.

Interest Expense

Interest expense primarily consists of amortized discount costs and interest costs related to our Series 1 Notes (as defined below), Series 2 Notes (as defined below) and Series 3 Notes (as defined below). The Series 1 Notes and the Series 2 Notes, prior to conversion on July 2, 2018, and the Series 3 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum.

Net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives

The net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives includes the change in the fair value of warrant liability and the premium conversion derivatives during the particular period while the warrant liability and the premium conversion derivatives are outstanding.


Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

The following table sets forth the results of operations for the three-months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Operating expenses:         
General and administrative $946,685  $731,973  $214,712 
Research and development  225,529   156,716   68,813 
Total operating expenses  1,172,214   888,689   283,525

Net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives  215,631   (55,585)  271,216 
Net loss $(1,260,986) $(1,294,323) $33,337 

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation expense associated with a consulting contract of $0.1 million related to fund raising, and legal and accounting expenses of $0.1 million primarily related to public company related costs.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses were $226,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $157,000 for the comparable prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salary-related expenses and development materials and supplies to support the increased level of development activities during the second quarter of 2018.

 Interest expense

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.3 million consisting of interest on principal and amortization of debt discount costs of $0.3 million related to the Series 1 Notes, Series 2 Notes and Series 3 Notes described further below. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.4 million consisting of interest on principal and amortization of debt issuance costs related to the Series 1 Notes. We expect that interest expense will significantly increase in the third quarter of 2018 given the conversion of the Series 1 Notes and Series 2 Notes into Common Stock on July 2, 2018 resulting in the recognition of the underlying beneficial conversion feature.

Net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives

The net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was a benefit of $(0.2) million and expense of $56,000, respectively. The change is due primarily to fluctuations in our Common Stock fair value and the number of potential shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the underlying Series 1 Notes, Series 2 Notes and Series 3 Notes as of June 30, 2018 as well as due to changes in the probability assessment of a conversion event occurring.

Net loss $(2,617,760) $(2,023,899) $(593,861)

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses were $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation associated with a consulting contract of $0.4 million related to fund raising, and legal and accounting expenses of $0.3 million primarily related to public company related costs.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses were $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salary-related expenses, development materials and supplies to support the increased level of development activities during the current year period.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.5 million consisting of interest on principal and amortization of debt discount costs of $0.5 million related to the Series 1 Notes, Series 2 Notes and Series 3 Notes described further below. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.6 million consisting largely of interest on principal and amortization of debt issuance costs related to the Series 1 Notes. We expect that interest expense will significantly increase in the third quarter of 2018 given the conversion of the Series 1 Notes and Series 2 Notes into Common Stock on July 2, 2018 resulting in the recognition of the underlying beneficial conversion feature.

Net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives

The net change in fair value for the warrant liability and premium conversion derivatives for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was a benefit of $(0.3) million and expense of $56,000, respectively. The change is due primarily to fluctuations in our Common Stock fair value and the number of potential shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the underlying Series 1 Notes, Series 2 Notes and Series 3 Notes as of June 30, 2018.

26

Loss on notes extinguishment

Non-cash loss on notes extinguishment for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.2 million. There were no note extinguishments in the comparable prior year period. The Series 2 Notes were amended in March 2018. The amendment for the Series 2 Notes added additional embedded conversion features and warrant coverage. As a result of the modifications made to the Series 2 Notes, we accounted for the amendment as a note extinguishment. We expect that that loss on notes extinguishments will increase in the third quarter of 2018 given the extinguishment of the Series 1 Notes and Series 2 Notes on July 2, 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historical Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2018, our principal source of liquidity consisted of cash deposits of $22,608. We have not generated any revenue, and we anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we develop our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and pursue pre-clinical testing and clinical trials, seek regulatory approvals, contract to manufacture any products, establish our own sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology under development, if approved, hire additional staff, add operational, financial and management systems and operate as a public company.

Our source of cash to date has been proceeds from the issuances of notes, warrants and unsecured loans, the terms of which are further described below. See “—Funding Requirements and Outlook” below for the outstanding balances on our convertible notes.

2018 Private Placement

From July 9, 2018 through August 3, 2018, the Company entered into subscription agreements (each, a “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement (the “2018 Private Placement”), agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers units (each, a “Unit”), each consisting of (i) 1 share (each, a “Share”) of our Common Stock, and (ii) a warrant to purchase 1 share of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $3.00 per share (the “2018 Warrants”). The initial closing of the 2018 Private Placement was consummated on July 9, 2018 (the “First Closing”), and through the issuance date of this Report, we issued and sold an aggregate of 295,200 Units to the Purchasers, for total gross proceeds to us of approximately $738,000, inclusive of the advances received in June 2018 in the amount of $188,000, before deducting offering expenses.

In connection with the 2018 Private Placement, the Company has agreed to issue and sell to accredited investors up to a maximum of 4,000,000 Units (the “Maximum Offering”) at a price of $2.50 per Unit for total gross proceeds of up to $10,000,000. If the 2018 Private Placement is over-subscribed, the Company may, in its discretion sell up to an additional 600,000 Units (the “Over-Allotment”) to cover such over subscriptions. If the Company issues the Maximum Offering amount, 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock (4,600,000 shares of Common Stock if the Over-Allotment is exercised) would be issuable upon exercise of the 2018 Warrants. The Company may conduct any number of additional closings so long as the final closing occurs on or before October 4, 2018, which period may be extended by the Company for up to 90 days as long as the amount of Units sold does not exceed the Maximum Offering and, if applicable, the Over-Allotment. Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to use the net proceeds from the 2018 Private Placement to pay the outstanding principal and accrued interest on our Series 3 Notes if such notes do not convert prior to maturity, to pay the principal on its unsecured term loans, for research and development, clinical studies, legal fees and sales and marketing expenses, as well as working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company has granted the Purchasers indemnification rights with respect to its representations, warranties and agreements under the Purchase Agreement.


In connection with the 2018 Private Placement, the Company entered into registration rights agreements with each of the Purchasers pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock sold in the 2018 Private Placement and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the 2018 Warrants. The Company has agreed to file such registration statement within 75 days of the final closing of the 2018 Private Placement. Each registration rights agreement includes customary indemnification rights in connection with the registration statement.

The 2018 Warrants are exercisable beginning on the date of issuance and will expire on July 9, 2023, five years from the date of the First Closing. Prior to expiration, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the 2018 Warrants, the holders of such 2018 Warrants may exercise the 2018 Warrants for shares of Common Stock by providing notice to the Company and paying the exercise price per share for each share so exercised.

In connection with the 2018 Private Placement, the brokers will receive a cash commission equal to 10% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Units. In addition to the brokers’ commission, we will issue 5-year warrants to the brokers to purchase an amount of Common Stock equal to 10% of the total amount of Shares sold in the 2018 Private Placement at an exercise price of $3.45 per share.

Series 3 Notes and Warrants

From October 2017 to May 2018, the Company issued unsecured convertible notes (the “Series 3 Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 million that bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock (the “Series 3 Warrants”). The Company initially entered into a subscription agreement with certain accredited investors and closed an initial private placement of the Series 3 Notes in October 2017. In December 2017, the Company and holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series 3 Notes entered into an amended and restated subscription agreement to amend the terms of the Series 3 Notes and Series 3 Warrants (the “Series 3 Amendment”). The Series 3 Notes require us to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at December 31, 2018. If the Company consummates an equity round of financing resulting in more than $3 million in gross proceeds before December 31, 2018 (the “Series 3 Qualified Financing”), the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 3 Notes shall automatically convert into the securities issued by us in the Series 3 Qualified Financing equal to the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Series 3 Notes divided by 80% of the price per share of the securities issued by us in the Series 3 Qualified Financing. If a Change of Control (as defined below) occurs prior to the earlier of a Series 3 Qualified Financing or December 31, 2018, the Series 3 Notes would, at the election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Series 3 Notes, either become payable on demand as of the closing date of the Change of Control or become convertible into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Change of Control at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the per share value of the Common Stock as determined by our Board of Directors (the “Board”) as if in connection with the granting of stock-based compensation or in a private sale to a third party in an arms-length transaction or (ii) at the per share consideration to be paid in the Change of Control (the date of any such conversion of the Series 3 Notes in connection with a Change of Control or Series 3 Qualified Financing, is referred to herein as the “Series 3 Conversion Date”). Change of Control means a merger or consolidation with another entity in which our stockholders do not own more than 50% of the outstanding voting power of the surviving entity or the disposition of all or substantially all of our assets. If we fail to complete a Series 3 Qualified Financing or a Change of Control does not occur by December 31, 2018, the Series 3 Notes will be immediately due and payable on such date.

Prior to the Series 3 Amendment, if the Company raised more than $3,000,000 in an equity financing before October 4, 2022, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 3 Notes would have automatically converted into the securities issued by the Company in such financing based on the greater number of such securities resulting from either (i) the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Series 3 Notes divided by $2.25 or (ii) the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Series 3 Notes multiplied by 1.25, divided by the price paid per security in such financing.

Each Series 3 Warrant grants the holder the option to purchase shares of our capital stock equal to the number of shares of capital stock of the Company received by the holder upon conversion of the Series 3 Notes at a per share exercise price equal to (i) the actual per share price of the securities issued in the Series 3 Qualified Financing if the Series 3 Notes convert in connection with such a qualified financing or (ii) the price at which the Series 3 Notes converted if they converted in connection with a Change of Control. The Series 3 Warrants are exercisable commencing on the Series 3 Conversion Date and expiring on the five year anniversary of that date. The exercise price and number of the shares of our capital stock issuable upon exercising the  Series 3 Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, business combination or similar transaction, as described therein.


Series 2 Notes and Warrants

In August 2017, the Company entered into a subscription agreement and issued interest free unsecured promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $253,000 to certain accredited investors. In November 2017, the Company and each subscriber amended the notes. In March 2018, the Company and each subscriber entered into a written consent to amend and restate the promissory notes (as amended, the “Series 2 Notes”) and to amend the subscription agreement to replace the form of warrant agreement annexed to the subscription agreement (the “Replacement Warrant”) and to provide for the issuance of an additional warrant (the “Additional Warrant”). In March 2018, the Company issued and delivered the Series 2 Notes, the Replacement Warrants and the Additional Warrants to the subscribers. Effective as of July 2, 2018, the Company amended the Series 2 Notes by entering into debt conversion agreements (the “Series 2 Conversion Agreements”) with each subscriber to (i) convert the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Series 2 Notes into shares of Common Stock based on the outstanding balance divided by $1.80 per share (the “Series 2 Conversion Shares”); (ii) cancel and extinguish the Series 2 Notes; and (iii) amend and restate the Replacement Warrants and Additional Warrants to make them immediately exercisable upon conversion, at a per share exercise price equal to $1.80 per share. As consideration for the early conversion of the Series 2 Notes, the Company issued each subscriber a new warrant (the “Series 2 Payment Warrants”), exercisable for up to the number of shares of common stock equal to the number of Series 2 Conversion Shares received by such subscriber; at a per share exercise price of $1.80 per share. The Series 2 Payment Warrants are exercisable commencing on July 2, 2018 and expire on November 21, 2021.The Replacement Warrants and Additional Warrants became immediately exercisable upon the July 2, 2018 conversion date, at a per share exercise price equal to $1.80 per share and continue to expire on November 21, 2021.

The exercise price and number of the shares issuable upon exercising the Series 2 Payment Warrants, Replacement Warrants and Additional Warrants are subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described therein. The Series 2 Notes were converted into 144,053 shares of Common Stock and warrants exercisable for 477,856 shares of Common Stock were issued as a result of the Series 2 Notes conversion and extinguishment.

The Series 2 Notes, as amended in March 2018, prior to the July 2, 2018 conversion and extinguishment, were convertible promissory notes that incurred interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and required us to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the maturity date of July 31, 2018. If we raised more than $3,000,000 in an equity or equity-linked financing before July 31, 2018 (the “Series 2 Qualified Financing”), the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest (the “Outstanding Balance”) on the Series 2 Notes would have automatically converted into the securities issued by us in the Series 2 Qualified Financing (the “New Round Stock”) based on the greater number of such securities resulting from either (i) the Outstanding Balance divided by $1.80 or (ii) the Outstanding Balance multiplied by 1.25, divided by the price paid per security in the Series 2 Qualified Financing. If a Change of Control had occurred prior to the earlier of a Series 2 Qualified Financing or July 31, 2018, the Series 2 Notes would have, at the election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal of the Series 2 Notes, either been payable on demand as of the closing date of such transaction or been convertible into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the per share value of the Common Stock as determined by the Board as if in connection with the granting of stock-based compensation or in a private sale to a third party in an arms-length transaction, or (ii) at the per share consideration to be paid in such transaction (the date of any such conversion of the Series 2 Notes in connection with a Change of Control or Series 2 Qualified Financing, is referred to herein as the “Series 2 Conversion Date”).

Prior to the Series 2 conversion, each Replacement Warrant granted the holder the option to purchase up to the number of shares of capital stock of the Company equal to the New Round Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of the Series 2 Note held by such holder at a per share exercise price equal to either (i) the actual per share price of New Round Stock if the Series 2 Note  converted in connection with a Series 2 Qualified Financing or (ii) the price at which the Series 2 Note converted in connection with a Change of Control. Following the Series 2 conversion, each Replacement Warrant was amended to be exercisable upon conversion for the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Series 2 Conversion Shares received by the holder, but all other terms remained materially the same.


Prior to the Series 2 conversion, each Additional Warrant granted the holder the option to purchase up to the number of shares of capital stock of the Company equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Series 2 Note held by such holder and (ii) 0.75; at a per share exercise price of $1.80. Following the Series 2 conversion, the Additional Warrant was amended to clarify that it is exercisable upon conversion for the number of shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying the Series 2 Conversion Share amount and 0.75, but all other terms remained materially the same.

Prior to amending the Series 2 Notes in November 2017 and March 2018, the notes were interest free and matured on February 18, 2018. Upon the maturity of the notes, the holder was entitled to receive a warrant exercisable for up to such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal amount by two, at an exercise price of $1.80 per share. In connection with the November 2017 amendment, the maturity date was extended to July 31, 2018 and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the subscribers upon exercise of the warrants was increased (with each subscriber entitled to receive a warrant to purchase up to such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the amount of such subscriber’s note multiplied by 0.75), at an exercise price of $1.80 per share.

Series 1 Notes and Warrants

From November 2016 to June 2017, the Company issued unsecured convertible promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1.6 million that bear interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock. In June 2017 and November 2017, the terms of such notes (as amended, the “Series 1 Notes”) and warrants (as amended, the “Series 1 Warrants”) were amended.

Effective as of July 2, 2018, the Company amended the Series 1 Notes by entering into debt conversion agreements (the “Series 1 Conversion Agreements”) with each Series 1 Note subscriber to (i) convert the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Series 1 Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock based on the outstanding balance divided by $1.80 per share (the “Series 1 Conversion Shares”); (ii) cancel and extinguish the Series 1 Notes; and (iii) amend and restate the Series 1 Warrants to make them immediately exercisable upon conversion, at a per share exercise price equal to $1.80 per share. As consideration for the early conversion of the Series 1 Notes, the Company issued each subscriber a new warrant (the “Series 1 Payment Warrants”), exercisable for up to the number of shares of common stock equal to the number of Series 1 Conversion Shares received by such subscriber; at a per share exercise price of $1.80 per share. The Series 1 Payment Warrants are exercisable commencing on July 2, 2018, and expire on November 21, 2021. The Series 1 Warrants became immediately exercisable upon the July 2, 2018 conversion date, at a per share exercise price equal to $1.80 per share, and continue to expire on November 21, 2021.

The exercise price and number of the shares issuable upon exercising the Series 1 Payment Warrants and original Series 1 Warrants are subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described therein. The Series 1 Notes were converted into 1,002,258 shares of Common Stock and warrants exercisable for 2,004,516 shares of Common Stock were issued on July 2, 2018 as a result of the Series 1 Notes conversion and extinguishment.

The Series 1 Notes, prior to the July 2, 2018 conversion and extinguishment, required us to repay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the earlier of July 31, 2018, or the consummation of the next equity or equity-linked round of financing resulting in more than $3 million in gross proceeds (the “Series 1 Qualified Financing”). If a Series 1 Qualified Financing had occurred before July 31, 2018, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 1 Notes would have automatically converted into the securities issued by us in the Series 1 Qualified Financing based on the greater number of such securities resulting from either (i) the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Series 1 Notes divided by $1.80 or (ii) the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Series 1 Notes multiplied by 1.25, divided by the price paid per security in such financing. If a Change of Control or initial public offering had occurred prior to the earlier of the Series 1 Qualified Financing or July 31, 2018, the Series 1 Notes would have, at the election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal of the Series 1 Notes, either been payable on demand as of the closing date of such transaction or been convertible into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the per share value as determined by the Board as if in connection with the granting of stock-based compensation or in a private sale to a third party in an arms-length transaction, or (ii) at the per share consideration to be paid in such transaction (the date of any such conversion of the Series 1 Notes in connection with a Change of Control, initial public offering or Series 1 Qualified Financing, is referred to herein as the “Series 1 Conversion Date”).


Each Series 1 Warrant, prior to the July 2, 2018 conversion and extinguishment, granted the holder the option to purchase up to the number of shares of capital stock of the Company equal to the shares of capital stock received by the holder upon the conversion of the Series 1 Note at a per share exercise price equal to either (i) the actual per share price of the securities issued in the Series 1 Qualified Financing if the Series 1 Note converted in connection with the Series 1 Qualified Financing, or (ii) the price at which the Series 1 Note converted in connection with a Change of Control or initial public offering. The Series 1 Warrants (other than the placement agent warrant) were exercisable commencing on the Series 1 Conversion Date. Following the Series 1 conversion and extinguishment, each Series 1 Warrant was amended to be exercisable upon conversion for the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Series 1 Conversion Shares received by the holder, but all other terms remained materially the same.

In connection with an engagement letter with the placement agent for the Series 1 Notes and Series 1 Warrants, the placement agent was entitled to receive a warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock in an amount equal to 8% of the Common Stock purchased by investors in the Series 1 Notes and Series 1 Warrants private placement in the event that the Series 1 Notes subscription was fully completed and would have had an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The placement agent warrant would have been immediately exercisable and would have expired five years from the date of issuance. The placement agent warrant was not issued. We also paid the placement agent a cash fee of $113,610 (8% of the gross proceeds received from the Series 1 Note and Series 1 Warrant investors).

Unsecured Loans

In May 2018, we received cash gross proceeds from unsecured loans represented by promissory notes in the amount of $168,000, of which $84,000 was from a stockholder owning over 5% of the Company’s Common Stock. The loans are interest free and require that we repay the principal in full on the earlier of the closing of an equity round of financing of the Company resulting in more than $5 million in gross proceeds or May 17, 2019. In March 2018, we also received cash gross proceeds in the amount of $115,000 represented by a promissory note from a stockholder owning over 5% of the Company’s Common Stock. The loan is also interest free and requires that we repay the principal in full on the earlier of the closing of an equity round of financing of the Company resulting in more than $3 million in gross proceeds or March 20, 2019. Lastly, we received cash proceeds from an unsecured loan for $50,000 in November 2016. We incurred no fees or interest costs related to that unsecured loan and repaid it in full in February 2017.

Funding Requirements and Outlook

We have no current source of revenue to sustain our present activities, and we do not expect to generate revenue until, and unless, the FDA or other regulatory authorities approve our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology under development and we successfully commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity and debt financings as well as collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. We do not have any committed external source of funds. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a common stockholder. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third-party partners, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development, future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.


Our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its report on our financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, noting the existence of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This uncertainty arose from management’s review of our results of operations and financial condition and its conclusion that, based on our operating plans, we did not have sufficient existing working capital to fund our operating expenses.

As of June 30, 2018, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 1 Notes, Series 2 Notes and Series 3 Notes was $1,803,341, $259,184 and $1,596,228, respectively. If we fail to complete the Series 3 Qualified Financing by December 31, 2018, the Series 3 Notes will be immediately due and payable on such date and we will not have sufficient cash to pay the principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

We have agreements with the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (“WARF”) and the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (“Mayo”) that require us to make certain milestone and royalty payments.

Under a License Agreement with WARF, as amended in February 2017 (the “WARF License”), we agreed to pay WARF $55,000 (representing a license fee) upon the earliest to occur of the date we cumulatively raise at least $3 million in financing, which threshold was met, the date of a change of control, or our revenue reaching a specified threshold amount, and to pay $65,000 (representing reimbursement for costs incurred by WARF in maintaining the licensed patents) upon the earliest to occur of the date we cumulatively raise at least $5 million in financing, the date of a change of control, or our revenue reaching a specified threshold amount. The initial $55,000 payment was due on May 3, 2018 and was paid on April 22, 2018. We have also agreed to pay WARF a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the WARF License, with a minimum annual royalty payment of $50,000 for 2019, $100,000 for 2020 and $150,000 for 2021 and each calendar year thereafter that the WARF License is in effect. If we or any of our sublicenses contest the validity of any licensed patent, the royalty rate will be doubled during the pendency of such contest and, if the contested patent is found to be valid and would be infringed by us if not for the WARF License, the royalty rate will be tripled for the remaining term of the WARF License.

Under an Amended and Restated exclusive license and development agreement between Mayo and NeuroOne, dated May 25, 2017 (the “Mayo Development Agreement”), NeuroOne issued Mayo NeuroOne Shares pursuant to a subscription agreement (which were converted into 859,976 shares of Common Stock in the Acquisition), and NeuroOne agreed to pay Mayo a cash payment of $91,708.80. Following the Acquisition, the rights and obligations under the Mayo Development Agreement transferred to the Company. In November 2017, the Company and Mayo amended the Mayo Development Agreement to extend the deadline of the cash payment to December 31, 2017, which the Company paid in December 2017. Additionally, we have agreed to pay Mayo a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the Mayo Development Agreement.

Our existing cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses throughout fiscal 2018. To continue to fund operations, we will need to secure additional funding. We may obtain additional financing in the future through the issuance of our Common Stock, through other equity or debt financings or through collaborations or partnerships with other companies. We may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Further, we may not be able to modify terms of some of our existing debt that may come due, and any failure to raise capital or to amend existing debt that may be due as and when needed could compromise our ability to execute on our business plan.

The development of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology is subject to numerous uncertainties, and we have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be substantially different than we currently anticipate and could use our cash resources sooner than we expect. Additionally, the process of developing medical devices is costly, and the timing of progress in pre-clinical tests and clinical trials is uncertain. Our ability to successfully transition to profitability will be dependent upon achieving FDA approval and then a level of product sales adequate to support our cost structure. We cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable or generate positive cash flow from operating activities.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These accounting principles require us to make estimates and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the periods presented. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon which we rely are reasonably based upon information available to us at the time that we make these estimates and judgments. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial results will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates and judgments and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described in Note 3 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in “Part 1, Item 1 – Financial Statements” in this Report.

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Not applicable for smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

During the three months ended June 30,December 31, 2018, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a- 15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act, of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of June 30,December 31, 2018. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded such controls and procedures to be ineffective as of June 30,December 31, 2018 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of June 30,December 31, 2018, disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to previously identified material weaknesses. The material weaknesses related tostem primarily from our small size and include the inability to (i) maintain effective controls over accounting for non-routine and/or complex debt and equity transactions and (ii) maintain effective controls over the financial statement close and reporting process, accounting for routine transactions anddue to an overall lack of segregation of duties.duties resulting from the limited number of employees we have.

  

We are unable to remedy our controls until we receive financing to hire additional employees. We intend to recruit additional professionals to address these material weaknesses, as our business conditions warrant. However, we do not currently have adequate cash resources to invest in these additional resources. Accordingly, our remediation plans may be delayed. Although we believe that these corrective steps, when taken, will enable management to conclude that the internal controls over our financial reporting are effective when the staff is in place and trained, we cannot provide assurance that these steps will be sufficient. We may be required to expend additional resources to identify, assess and correct any additional weaknesses in internal control.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we arethe Company is subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business.  In May 2017, NeuroOne received a letter from PMT, the former employer of Mark Christianson and Wade Fredrickson.  PMT claimed that these officers had breached their restrictive covenant obligations with PMT by virtue of their work for NeuroOne and such officer’s prior work during employment with the prior employer, that these officers had breached their confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations to PMT and federal and state law by misappropriating confidential and trade secret information, and that the Company is responsible for tortious interference with the contracts.  The letter demanded that Mr. Fredrickson (who resigned from the Company in June 2017), Mr. Christianson and NeuroOne cease and desist all competitive activities, that Mr. Fredrickson step down from his position and that Mr. Christianson and NeuroOne provide the former employer access to NeuroOne’s systems to demonstrate that it is not using trade secrets or proprietary information nor competing with the former employer.

 

On March 29, 2018, we werethe Company was served with a complaint filed by PMT adding the Company, NeuroOne and Mr. Christianson to its existing lawsuit against Mr. Fredrickson.  In the lawsuit, PMT claims that Mr. Fredrickson and Mr. Christianson breached their non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disclosure obligations, breached their fiduciary duty obligations, were unjustly enriched, engaged in unfair competition, engaged in a civil conspiracy, tortiously interfered with PMT’s contracts and prospective economic advantage, and breached a covenant of good faith and fair dealing.  Against Mr. Fredrickson, PMT also alleges that he intentionally or negligently spoliated evidence, made negligent or fraudulent misrepresentations, misappropriated trade secrets in violation of Minnesota law, and committed the tort of conversion and statutory civil theft.  Against the Company and NeuroOne, PMT alleges that the Company and NeuroOne were unjustly enriched and engaged in unfair competition.  PMT asksasked the Court to impose a constructive trust over the shares held by Mr. Fredrickson and Mr. Christianson and to award compensatory damages, equitable relief, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest. The Company, NeuroOne and Mr. Christianson (who has not worked for PMT since 2012) intend to defend themselves vigorously.

 

On April 18, 2018, Mr. Christianson, the Company and NeuroOne, Inc. filed a motion for dismissal, which has not yet beenwas heard by the Court. They argueCourt on October 11, 2018. The motion for dismissal states that: the contract claims against Mr. Christianson fail because his agreement was not supported by consideration; the Minnesota Uniform Trade Secrets Act preempts plaintiff'splaintiff’s claims for unfair competition, civil conspiracy and unjust enrichment; plaintiff fails to state a claim regarding alleged breach of the duties of loyalty and good faith/fair dealing; plaintiff cannot legally obtain a constructive trust; plaintiff has insufficiently pled its tortious interference claims; and Plaintiff has not stated a claim for unfair competition. On January 7, 2019, the judge granted the motion for dismissal with respect to PMT’s claim for breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, and denied the motion for dismissal with respect to the other claims presented. The Company, NeuroOne, Inc. and Mr. Christianson (who has not worked for PMT since February 2012) intend to continue to defend themselves vigorously.  

 

The outcome and potential loss relatedWe have no insurance coverage to protect against any losses we may experience due to this matterclaim. Furthermore, Mr. Christianson is unknown asa key officer and the loss of June 30, 2018.his services would be detrimental to our operations and prospects.
