Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations Predictive Oncology Inc. (“Predictive Oncology” or the “Company”) is a knowledge-driven company focused on applying artificial intelligence (“AI”) to support the development of optimal cancer therapies, which can ultimately lead to more effective treatments and improved patient outcomes. Through AI, Predictive Oncology uses its proprietary biobank of 150,000+ cancer tumor samples, categorized by patient type, against drug compounds to help the drug discovery process and increase the probability of successful drug development. The Company offers a suite of solutions for oncology drug development from early discovery to clinical trials. Predictive Oncology’s mission is to change the landscape of oncology drug discovery and enable the development of more effective therapies for the treatment of cancer. By harnessing the power of machine learning and scientific rigor, the Company believes that it can improve the probability of success of advancing pharmaceutical and biological drug candidates with a higher degree of confidence. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company’s former Birmingham operating segment, which provided contract services and research focused on solubility improvements, stability studies and protein production, met the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations. As a result, the Company operates in two business areas. In its first area, the Company provides optimized, high-confidence drug-response predictions through the application of AI using its proprietary biobank of tumor samples to enable a more informed selection of drug/tumor combinations and increase the probability of success during drug development. The Company also creates and develops tumor-specific 3D cell culture models mimicking the physiological environment of human tissue enabling better-informed decision-making during development. In its second business area, the Company produces the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”)-cleared STREAMWAY® System and associated products for automated medical fluid waste management and patient-to-drain medical fluid disposal. As a result of the decision to discontinue its former Birmingham operating segment, the Company has two Note 13 Segments ● Pittsburgh segment: ● Eagan segment Going Concern These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists. The Company has incurred significant and recurring losses from operations for the past several years and, as of September 30, 2024, had an accumulated deficit of $178,256,677. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3,078,955 as of September 30, 2024, and needs to raise significant additional capital to meet its operating needs. The Company had short-term obligations of $3,816,766 and long-term operating lease obligations of $1,704,453 as of September 30, 2024. The Company does not expect to generate sufficient operating revenue to sustain its operations in the near term. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred negative cash flows from continuing operating activities of $8,913,589. Although the Company has attempted to improve its cash flows from continuing operating activities by bolstering revenues and continues to seek ways to generate revenue through business development activities, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to improve its cash flows from continuing operating activities sufficiently or achieve profitability in the near term. As a result of these conditions, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company is evaluating alternatives to obtain the required additional funding to maintain future operations. These alternatives may include, but are not limited to, equity financing, issuing debt, entering into other financing arrangements, or monetizing operating businesses or assets. These possibilities, to the extent available, may be on terms that result in significant dilution to the Company’s existing stockholders or that result in the Company’s existing stockholders losing part or all of their investment. Despite these potential sources of funding, the Company may be unable to access financing or obtain additional liquidity when needed or under acceptable terms, if at all. If such financing or adequate funds from operations are not available, the Company would be forced to limit its business activities and the Company could default on existing payment obligations, which would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations, and the Company may ultimately be required to cease its operations and liquidate its business. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. Basis of Presentation The Company has prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements and related unaudited financial information in the notes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s position, the results of its operations, and its cash flows for the interim periods. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all intercompany eliminations. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024. The nature of the Company’s business is such that the results of any interim period may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. NASDAQ Notice of Non-Compliance On September 19, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the bid price for the Company’s common stock had closed below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, and that the Company is therefore not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock and the Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until March 18, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by March 18, 2025, the Company may be eligible for additional time pursuant to the Company meeting certain further Nasdaq requirements. Accounting Policies and Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Estimates are used in the following areas, among others: variable consideration associated with revenue recognition, stock-based compensation expense, fair value of long-lived assets for impairment analyses, the valuation allowance included in the deferred income tax calculation, accrued expenses, and fair value of derivative liabilities. Note 1 to the annual consolidated financial statements contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024, describes the significant accounting policies and estimates used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Principles of Consolidation The Company had two wholly owned subsidiaries, Helomics Corporation and Skyline Medical, Inc. (“Skyline Medical”), as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and these wholly owned subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023. Discontinued Operations During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company disposed of its former Birmingham operating segment. Disposal groups that meet the discontinued operations criteria provided in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-20-45 are classified as discontinued operations. Assets and liabilities of discontinued operations are presented separately in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and results of discontinued operations are reported as a separate component of net loss in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of net loss for all periods presented, resulting in changes to the presentation of certain prior period amounts. Results of discontinued operations are excluded from segment results for all periods presented. Cash flows from discontinued operations are also reported separately in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Refer to Note 2 Discontinued Operations Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalent balances with high quality financial institutions and, consequently, the Company believes that such funds are subject to minimal credit risk. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets are in excess of insured limits. The Company has not experienced any credit losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on these funds. As of September 30, 2024, accounts receivable from two single Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) issued by the FASB.
