NOTE 1. THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION | NOTE 1. THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Company Aclarion, Inc., formerly Nocimed, Inc., (the “Company” or “Aclarion”) is a healthcare technology company that leverages magnetic resonance spectroscopy ("MRS"), and a proprietary biomarker to optimize clinical treatments. The Company was formed in February 2015, is incorporated in Delaware, and has its principal place of business in Broomfield, Colorado. Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair representation of the results for the periods presented and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, which include a complete set of footnote disclosures, including our significant accounting policies. The audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, are included in the Prospectus dated April 21, 2022, as filed with the SEC on April 25, 2022, under Rule 424(b)(4). The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year or for any other future period. Reclassifications Certain accounts relating to the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the net income or net assets as previously reported. Risks and Uncertainties The Company is subject to various risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of development. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, its limited operating history, competition from other companies, limited access to additional funds, dependence on key personnel, and management of potential rapid growth. To address these risks, the Company must, among other things, develop its customer base; implement and successfully execute its business and marketing strategy; develop follow-on products; provide superior customer service; and attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be successful in addressing these or other such risks. The Company is also subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as the effects of and response to the pandemic are rapidly evolving and new information is regularly coming to light. The Company's customers are diverting resources to treat COVID-19 patients and deferring non-urgent and elective procedures, both of which are likely to impact customers' ability to meet their other financial obligations, including to the Company. Some customers, which include hospitals, major academic medical centers, and other related entities, have incurred significant losses during the COVID-19 pandemic due to reduced patient volume. Furthermore, the Company is also anticipating a global economic slowdown due to disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which may result in an incremental adverse impact on revenue, net income and cash flow and may require significant additional expenditures to mitigate such impacts. Policymakers around the globe have responded with fiscal policy actions to support the healthcare industry and economy as a whole. The magnitude and overall effectiveness of these actions remain uncertain. Initial Public Offering On April 21, 2022, the registration statement for our initial public offering (“IPO”) was declared effective. In connection with the effectiveness of the IPO registration statement: · we effected a 1-for-7.47 reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock; · accordingly, all common share amounts and per share data presented in our condensed financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented; · we filed a restated Certificate of Incorporation with the State of Delaware and we adopted new restated Bylaws; · certain outstanding common stock warrants were exercised on a net share basis for 60,408 common shares (451,245 pre-split shares); · 24,495,004 (pre-split) outstanding shares of our preferred stock were converted into 3,279,117 post-split shares of common stock; · all accrued dividends on our outstanding Series B, B-1, B-2 and B-3 preferred stock were converted to 984,429 post-split common shares; and · all accrued interest on the Company's outstanding secured promissory notes was converted into (i) 426,768 post-split common shares and (ii) 426,768 post-split common stock warrants, with beneficial conversion rates charged to interest expense upon conversion.

Reverse Stock Split On April 21, 2022, the Company effected a 1-for-7.47 reverse stock split (the “Stock Split”) of its issued and outstanding common stock. As a result of the Stock Split, unless described otherwise, all references to common stock, options to purchase common stock, share data, per share data and related information contained in these financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Stock Split for all periods presented. In addition, any fractional shares that would otherwise be issued as a result of the Stock Split were rounded up to the nearest whole share. Further, the number of shares issuable and exercise prices of stock options and warrants have been retrospectively adjusted in these financial statements for all periods presented to reflect the Stock Split. |
