PART I

ITEM 1.

BUSINESS.

General

Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Provectus” or “the Company”), is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing immunotherapy medicines for different diseases. Our drug product candidates are based on bioactive, synthetic, small molecule rose bengal sodium (“RBS”), which is a member of a class of molecules called halogenated xanthenes (“HXs”).

The Company’s proprietary, patented, pharmaceutical-grade RBS is the active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) in all our clinical development and non-clinical research programs. The Company is the first entity to advance RBS into clinical trials for the treatment of disease. The Company is also the first entity, and currently the only one, to date to make pharmaceutical-grade RBS API consistently at a purity of nearly 100%.

RBS can be delivered by different routes of administration. RBS may concurrently display stimulatory and inhibitory effects, ~~and~~ may target ~~disease~~ disease in a ~~bifunctional~~ multi-~~modal~~mechanistic manner, may be an electron acceptor and donor. Direct contact by RBS with disease may lead to cell death or repair by one or more ~~targeting mechanisms~~pathways, depending on the disease being treated and the ~~concentration~~amount of RBS being utilized ~~in the formulation~~. Multivariate innate and adaptive immune activation, signaling, and response may follow.

The Company’s RBS drug platform and pipeline comprise drug product candidates and non-clinical formulations that use different amounts of RBS ~~and are~~ delivered by different routes of administration specific to each disease area, including:

● Clinical: Development programs in oncology (intratumoral administration), dermatology (topical), and ophthalmology (topical), ● In vivo: Proof-of-concept programs in oncology (oral), hematology (oral), wound healing (topical), and canine cancers (intratumoral), ● In vitro: Early discovery programs in immune vaccine adjuvants, infectious diseases, ~~and~~ tissue regeneration and repair, and proprietary, and ● In silico: Computer modeling of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and other disease targets.

Business Strategy

The Company is planning to initiate new intratumoral PV-10 monotherapy and combination therapy clinical trials in ~~mPDAC and~~ pre-operative penile SCC and mPDAC indications to generate new clinical data and appropriately utilize historical clinical data from intratumoral PV-10 trials, EAPs, and/or QOL study of injectable solid tumor cancers. Our goals are to pursue drug approval pathways and/or co-development relationships with commercial pharmaceutical companies for intratumoral PV-10 based on these and other indications.

The Company is developing a systemically administered formulation of PV-10 for the treatment of cancer. Our goals, when this work is complete, are to file and have accepted an investigational new drug application (“IND”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), take an initial systemic drug product candidate into an early-stage clinic trial for an initial oncology or hematology indication, and/or pursue a co-development collaboration or out-license arrangement for this route of administration and disease area.

The Company is developing different formulations of PV-10 and different routes of administration for other disease areas by endeavoring to show non-clinical activity and lack of toxicity. Our goals, when each task of this work is completed, are to file and have accepted an IND with the FDA, take an initial drug candidate into an early-stage clinic trial for an initial indication, and/or pursue a co-development collaboration or out-license arrangement for the respective disease area and route of administration.

The Company is endeavoring to fully elucidate the traits and characteristics of the RBS molecule using different academic medical centers under sponsored research and testing agreements. Our goal is to gain and communicate additional knowledge of the RBS molecule’s targeting, mechanism, signaling, immune response, and other features that are common to and/or different from each disease area under research.

The Company is doing rigorous chemical analytical comparisons of non-pharmaceutical grades of rose bengal from specialty chemical suppliers against the Company’s pharmaceutical-grade RBS. Our goal is to demonstrate the proprietary nature of the Company’s pharmaceutical-grade RBS and that our pharmaceutical-grade RBS meets the necessary uniformity and purity requirements for commercial pharmaceutical use.

RBS API and Drug Candidate Manufacturing

Our pharmaceutical-grade RBS resulted from:

	●	The Company’s innovation of a proprietary, patented, commercial-scale process to synthesize the RBS molecule into a viable active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) for commercial pharmaceutical use,

	●	The development of unique chemistry, manufacturing, and control (“CMC”) specifications for API and drug candidate manufacturing processes,

	●	The production and multi-year stability testing of multiple API and drug candidate lots; the comprehensive documentation of lot composition and reproducibility, and

	●	The review and acceptance of CMC data from these lots by seven different national drug regulatory agencies for use in a prior, multi-country, multi-center Phase 3 randomized control trial of the Company.

The Company’s API and drug candidate manufacturing processes employ Quality-by-Design principles, current good manufacturing practice (“cGMP”) regulations, and the guidelines of The International Council for Harmonization (ICH) of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use. These processes utilize controls that eliminate the formation of historical impurities and avoid the introduction of potentially hazardous impurities that the Company believes may have been and could be present in uncontrolled and unreported amounts in non-pharmaceutical grades of rose bengal.

The Company’s processes of synthesizing the RBS molecule into pharmaceutical-grade RBS and manufacturing RBS API and PV-10 drug candidate, the processes’ CMC specifications, and the CMC data from the production of stability lots of API and drug candidate have been reviewed by multiple national drug regulatory agencies prior to granting clinical trial authorizations for the Company to commence a historical Phase 3 study of intratumoral PV-10 for the treatment of the Company’s former lead indication of locally advanced cutaneous melanoma (LACM), including the U.S. FDA, Germany’s Bundesinstitut für Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte (BfArM), Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) under a clinical trial notification, France’s Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament et des Produits de Santé (ANSM), Italy’s Agenzia Italiana del Farmaco (AIFA), Mexico’s Comisión Federal para la Protección contra Riesgos Sanitarios (COFEPRIS), and Argentina’s Administración Nacional de Medicamentos, Alimentos y Tecnología Médica (ANMAT).

RBS Non-proprietary Name

The RBS name for the Company’s pharmaceutical-grade API was selected by and passed the review of the World Health Organization (“WHO”) Expert Advisory Panel on the International Pharmacopoeia and Pharmaceutical Preparations after the Company applied for a non-proprietary name in 2020 and reached the status of recommended International Non-proprietary Names (“INN”). INN Recommended List 88, which includes the RBS name, was published with the No. 3 issue of the WHO Drug Information, Volume 36 in 2022.

Non-Pharmaceutical Grades of Rose Bengal

Commercial Grade

Commercial grade rose bengal can be purchased from specialty chemical suppliers in the U.S. and other parts of the world that manufacture it under non-cGMP conditions. Commercial grade rose bengal appears to have reported purities that may vary between 80% and 95%, which we believe may not be wholly accurate, and may contain substantial amounts of unreported related impurities and/or gross contaminants. Commercial grade rose bengal is typically used by researchers unaffiliated with the Company for non-clinical study of the rose bengal molecule for potential biomedical therapeutic applications. The Company provides PV-10 to researchers affiliated with the Company for their non-clinical study of RBS for potential biomedical therapeutic applications.

We believe that commercial grade rose bengal is still manufactured using the original historical process, or a variant thereof, developed by the molecule’s original Swiss creator Rudolph Gnehm in 1881. Some chemical manufacturers may, however, apply purification techniques that the Company believes still result in commercial grade rose bengal possessing questionable purity and contaminants and substantial lot-to-lot manufacturing variability.

Diagnostic Grade

Diagnostic grade rose bengal describes non-approved rose bengal that is used as an ingredient in historical or current ophthalmic solutions, strips, and devices, has been historically or is presently compounded by pharmacists for ophthalmic use, and has been or is in other non-ophthalmic diagnostic tests such as the rose bengal test for human brucellosis.

We presume, but have not yet confirmed, that diagnostic grade rose bengal is derived from commercial grade rose bengal that may have undergone a form of purification under cGMP regulations and/or may have been compounded by a pharmacist, academic medical researcher, or commercial entity under cGMP regulations. Here too, the Company believes that purification may not sufficiently improve the amounts and accuracy of diagnostic grade rose bengal purity and lot contents and may not adequately reduce or eliminate lot-to-lot manufacturing variability.

Chemical Analytical Comparison

In 2022, the Company ~~began~~worked ~~work~~ with a U.S. contract development and manufacturing organization to assess rigorously and methodically three lots of commercial grade rose bengal, one each from three different specialty chemical suppliers, and compare these non-pharmaceutical grade materials with the Company’s pharmaceutical-grade RBS. This chemical analytical work was substantially completed in 2022. The Company believes that the ~~preliminary~~ results of these analyses ~~indicate~~indicated that all three lots of commercial grade rose bengal had rose bengal purity that was drastically different from what was represented on their respective certificates of analysis (“CofAs”), and that one of the three lots contained gross contaminants that were not represented on its CofA.

Potential Barriers to Entry

The Company believes that the Company’s proprietary, patented, pharmaceutical-grade RBS possesses several competitive advantages over non-pharmaceutical-grade rose bengal (i.e., commercial and diagnostic grades) that researchers, clinicians, and academic, business, and/or governmental competitors have used, are using, and/or may attempt to use for potential biomedical applications. The Company believes that non-pharmaceutical-grade rose bengal may suffer from the uncontrolled presence of substance-related impurities and/or gross contaminants, substantial lot-to-lot manufacturing variability, inaccurately reported and/or misrepresented purity and contents, and the lack of reproducible, consistent, and fulsome CMC specifications and documentation. The Company believes that historical and potentially hazardous impurities and other manufacturing and handling issues facing non-pharmaceutical grade rose bengal may pose significant scientific, technological, and economic challenges to overcome and validate for compliance with modern drug regulatory standards.

Competition

In general, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are competitive, characterized by steady and sometimes disruptive advances in products and technology. A number of companies have developed and continue to develop products that address the areas we have targeted. Some of these companies are pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies that are international in scope and very large in size, while others are small companies that have been successful in one or more areas we are targeting. Existing or future pharmaceutical, ~~device~~devices, or other competitors may develop products that accomplish similar functions to our technologies in ways that may be less expensive, receive faster regulatory approval, or receive greater market acceptance than our products. Many of our competitors have been in existence longer than we have, have greater capital resources, broader internal structure for research, development, manufacturing, and marketing, and may be further along in their respective product cycles.

Supply Chain

During ~~2024~~2025, we ~~began~~continued manufacturing new clinical supplies of PV-10 and PV-305.

Federal Regulation of Therapeutic Products

All the prescription drug candidates that we currently contemplate developing will require approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) prior to sales within the U.S. and by comparable international governmental healthcare regulatory agencies prior to sale outside the U.S. The FDA and comparable international agencies impose substantial requirements on the manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceutical products. These agencies and other entities regulate, among other things, research and development activities and the testing, manufacturing, quality control, safety and effectiveness claims, labeling, storage, record keeping, approval, advertising, and promotion of our prescription drug candidates. While we attempt to minimize and avoid significant regulatory bars when formulating our products, some degree of regulation from these regulatory agencies is unavoidable.

The regulatory process required by the FDA, through which our prescription drug candidates must successfully pass before they may be marketed in the U.S., generally involves pre-clinical laboratory and animal testing, submission of an application that must become effective before clinical trials may begin, adequate and well-controlled human clinical trials to establish the safety and efficacy of the product for its intended indication, and FDA approval to market a given product for a given indication after the appropriate application has been filed. For pharmaceutical products, pre-clinical tests include laboratory evaluation of the product, its chemistry, formulation, and stability, as well as in vitro and animal studies to assess the potential safety and efficacy of the product. We will require sponsored work to be conducted in compliance with pertinent local and international regulatory requirements, including those providing for Institutional Review Board approval, national governing agency approval, and patient informed consent, using protocols consistent with ethical principles stated in the Declaration of Helsinki and other internationally recognized standards and delineated by The International Conference on Harmonisation (“ICH”) Good Clinical Practice standards.

If the FDA is satisfied with the results and data from pre-clinical tests, it will authorize human clinical trials. Human clinical trials traditionally are conducted in three sequential phases which may overlap. Each of the three phases involves testing and study of specific aspects of the effects of the investigational product on human subjects, including testing for safety, dosage tolerance, side effects, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretion, and clinical efficacy.

Phase 1 clinical trials include the initial introduction of an investigational new drug into humans, or via a new route of administration or new organ system if previously investigated in humans. These studies are closely monitored and may be conducted in patients but may also be conducted in healthy volunteer subjects. These studies are designed to determine the metabolic and pharmacologic actions of the drug in humans, the side effects associated with increasing doses, and, if possible, to gain early evidence on effectiveness. While the FDA can cause us to end clinical trials at any phase due to safety concerns, Phase 1 clinical trials are primarily concerned with safety issues. We also attempt to obtain sufficient information about the drug candidate’s pharmacokinetics and pharmacological effects during Phase 1 clinical trials to permit the design of scientifically valid, Phase 2 studies.

Phase 1 studies also evaluate drug metabolism, structure-activity relationships, and the mechanism of action in humans. These studies also determine which investigational drugs are used as research tools to explore biological phenomena or disease processes. The total number of subjects included in Phase 1 studies varies with the drug but is generally in the range of 10 to 80.

Phase 2 clinical trials include early controlled clinical studies conducted to obtain preliminary data on the effectiveness of the drug for a particular indication or indications in patients with the disease or condition. This phase of testing also helps determine the common short-term side effects and risks associated with the drug. Phase 2 studies are often randomized controlled studies that are closely monitored and conducted in a relatively small number of patients, usually involving up to several hundred people.

Phase 3 studies are expanded controlled and uncontrolled trials. They are performed after preliminary evidence suggesting effectiveness of the drug has been obtained in Phase 2 and are intended to gather definitive information about effectiveness and safety that is needed to evaluate the overall benefit-risk relationship of the drug. Phase 3 studies also provide an adequate basis for extrapolating the results to the general population and transmitting that information in ~~the~~ physician labeling. Phase 3 studies usually include several hundred to several thousand people.

We have established a core clinical development team and have been working with external and FDA-experienced consultants to assist us in developing product-specific development and approval strategies, preparing the required submittals, guiding us through the regulatory process, and providing input into the design and site selection of human clinical studies.

The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort, and financial resources, and we may not obtain FDA approval on a timely basis, if at all. Success in non-clinical or early-stage clinical trials does not assure success in later-stage clinical trials. The FDA or research institutions conducting the trials may suspend clinical trials or may not permit trials to advance from one phase to another at any time for various reasons, including a finding that the subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw a prescription drug approval if we do not comply with pertinent regulatory requirements and standards or if problems are identified after the product reaches the market. If the FDA grants approval of a prescription drug candidate, the approval may impose limitations, including limits on the indicated uses for which we may market a drug product. In addition, the FDA may require additional testing and surveillance programs to monitor the safety and/or effectiveness of approved drug products that have been commercialized, and the agency has the power to prevent or limit further marketing of a product based on the results of these post-marketing programs. Further, later discovery of previously unknown problems with a drug product may result in restrictions on the product, including withdrawal from the market.

Marketing our prescription drug candidates abroad will require similar regulatory approvals by equivalent national authorities and is subject to similar risks. To expedite development, we may pursue some or all of our initial clinical testing and approval activities outside the U.S., and in particular in those countries where our prescription drug candidates may have substantial medical and commercial relevance. In some such cases, any resulting drug products may be brought to the U.S. after substantial offshore experience is gained. Accordingly, we intend to pursue any such development in a manner consistent with U.S. and ICH standards so that the resultant development data is maximally applicable for potential global approval.

Additional Regulation

We are subject to various federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, human health, and safety in the U.S. and in other jurisdictions in which we operate. If we violate these laws and regulations, we could be fined, criminally charged, or otherwise sanctioned by regulators. Environmental laws and regulations are complex, change frequently and have become more stringent over time. We believe that our operations currently comply in all material respects with applicable environmental laws and regulations.

Human Capital Resources

We have six full-time employees who currently serve as CEO, CFO, CTO, president, senior scientist, and controller. We also engage an independent contractor, who currently serves as an information technology manager.

We believe the Company’s success depends on its ability to attract, develop, and retain key personnel. The skills, experience, and industry knowledge of key members of our Board of Directors, employees, and contractors significantly benefit our operations and performance. The Company’s Board of Directors and management oversee various employee and contractor initiatives.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS.

Our business and its future performance may be affected by various factors, the most significant of which are discussed below.

Risks Related to Our Business

We are a clinical-stage drug company, have no prescription drug products approved for commercial sale, have incurred substantial losses, and expect to incur substantial losses and negative operating cash flow for the foreseeable future.

We are a clinical-stage drug company that has no prescription drug products approved for commercial sale. We have never generated any substantial revenues and may never achieve substantial revenues or profitability. As of December 31, ~~2024~~2025, we have incurred net losses of approximately $~~257~~263 million in the aggregate since inception in January 2002. We may never achieve or maintain profitability, even if we succeed in developing and commercializing one or more of our prescription drug candidates. We also expect to continue to incur significant operating expenditures and anticipate that our operating and capital expenses may increase substantially in the foreseeable future as we continue to develop and seek regulatory approval for our prescription drug candidates, develop our prescription drug formulation candidates, implement additional internal systems and infrastructure, and hire additional personnel.

We also expect to experience negative operating cash flow for the foreseeable future as we fund our operating losses and any future capital expenditures. As a result, we will need to generate significant revenues in order to achieve and maintain profitability. We may not be able to generate these revenues or achieve profitability in the future. Our failure to achieve or maintain profitability could negatively impact the value of our common stock.

We need additional capital to conduct our operations and commercialize and/or further develop our prescription drug candidates and prescription drug formulation candidates in ~~2025~~2026 and beyond, and our ability to obtain the necessary funding is uncertain.

We need additional capital in ~~2025~~2026 and beyond to continue developing and seeking to commercialize our drug product candidates. We intend to continue with the development of our prescription drug candidates and prescription drug formulation candidates on the basis of historical, ongoing, and prospective clinical and non-clinical study results. However, we need to raise additional capital through public or private offerings, debt financing, or other means in order to successfully implement our business plan and develop and market our products.

Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. As discussed in more detail below, additional equity financing could result in significant dilution to stockholders. Further, in the event that additional funds are obtained through licensing or other arrangements, these arrangements may require us to relinquish rights to some of our products, product candidates, and technologies that we would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize ourselves. If sufficient capital is not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our programs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

There is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s cash balance was $~~489~~251,~~726~~291 at December 31, ~~2024~~2025. Cash balances as of December 31, ~~which~~2024 ~~includes~~included $182,284 of restricted cash ~~resulting~~associated ~~from~~with a grant received from the State of Tennessee. There was no restricted cash associated with the grant received from the State of Tennessee as of December 31, 2025 due to the completion of the grant award program during 2025. The Company’s working capital ~~deficiency~~deficit was $56,~~998~~329,~~712~~503 and $75,~~652~~998,~~098~~712 as of December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024, respectively. The Company continues to incur significant operating losses and management expects that significant on-going operating expenditures will be necessary to successfully implement our business plan and develop and market our products. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date that the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are issued. Implementation of our plans and our ability to continue as a going concern will depend upon our ability to develop our prescription drug candidates and prescription drug formulation candidates, and to raise additional capital.

Management believes that we may have access to capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, including the 2025 Financing, exchange offers, debt financings, corporate collaborations, or other means. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we will not be able to pay our obligations as they become due.

Our prescription drug product candidates are at early- to mid-stages of development and may never obtain U.S. or international regulatory approvals required for us to commercialize our investigational drug product candidates.

We will need approval of the FDA to commercialize our prescription drug product candidates in the U.S. and approvals from FDA-equivalent regulatory authorities in international jurisdictions to commercialize our investigational drug product candidates there.

We are continuing to pursue clinical development of our most advanced drug product candidates, PV-10 and PH-10, for use as treatments for specific disease indications. The continued and further development of these drug product candidates will require significant additional research, formulation and manufacturing development, and pre-clinical and extensive clinical testing prior to their regulatory approval and commercialization. Pre-clinical and clinical studies of our drug product candidates may not demonstrate the safety and efficacy necessary to obtain regulatory approvals. Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies have suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical trials, even after experiencing promising results in earlier trials. Pharmaceutical products that appear to be promising at early stages of development may not reach the market or be marketed successfully for a number of reasons, including a product may be found to be ineffective or have harmful side effects during subsequent pre-clinical testing or clinical trials, a product may fail to receive necessary regulatory clearance, a product may be too difficult to manufacture on a large scale, a product may be too expensive to manufacture or market, a product may not achieve broad market acceptance, others may hold proprietary rights that will prevent a product from being marketed, and others may market equivalent or superior products.

Satisfaction of the FDA’s regulatory requirements typically takes many years, depends upon the type, complexity, and novelty of the product candidate, and requires substantial resources for research, development, and testing. We cannot predict whether our research and clinical approaches will result in drugs that the FDA considers safe for humans and effective for indicated uses. The FDA has substantial discretion in the drug approval process and may require us to conduct additional nonclinical and clinical testing or to perform post-marketing studies. The approval process may also be delayed by changes in government regulation, future legislation or administrative action or changes in FDA policy that occur prior to or during our regulatory review. Delays in obtaining regulatory approvals may delay commercialization of, and our ability to derive revenues from our prescription drug candidates, impose costly procedures on us, and diminish any competitive advantages that we may otherwise enjoy.

Our research and product development efforts may not be successfully completed and may not result in any successfully commercialized drug products. Further, after commercial introduction of a new drug product, discovery of problems through adverse event reporting could result in restrictions on the product, including withdrawal from the market and, in certain cases, civil or criminal penalties.

Even if we comply with all FDA requests, we cannot be sure that we will ever obtain regulatory clearance for any of our drug product candidates. Failure to obtain FDA approval of any of our prescription drug candidates will severely undermine our business by reducing our number of saleable drug products and, therefore, corresponding revenues.

In international jurisdictions, we must receive approval from the appropriate regulatory authorities before we can commercialize our prescription drug candidates. International regulatory approval processes generally include all of the risks associated with the FDA approval procedures described above.

Before obtaining regulatory approval for the sale of our drug product candidates, including PV-10 and PH-10, we must conduct additional clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our drug product candidates. Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to timing and outcome. Competition in clinical development has made it difficult to enroll patients at an acceptable rate in some of our clinical trials. Advances in medical technology could make our prescription drug candidates obsolete prior to completion of clinical testing. A failure of one or more of our clinical trials may occur at any stage of testing. The outcome of pre-clinical testing and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim results of a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Moreover, pre-clinical and clinical data are often susceptible to varying interpretations and analyses, and many companies that have believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily in pre-clinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for their products. Product candidates in later stages of clinical trials may fail to show the desired safety and efficacy characteristics despite having progressed satisfactorily through pre-clinical studies and initial clinical testing. A number of companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, including those with greater resources and experience, have suffered significant setbacks in Phase 3 clinical development, even after seeing promising results in earlier clinical trials.

Our research and development expenses may increase in connection with expanding clinical trials of our product candidates in existing indications and undertaking clinical trials of our product candidates in new indications. Because successful development of our drug product candidates is uncertain, we are unable to estimate the actual funds required to complete research and development and commercialize our products under development.

Negative or inconclusive results of our future clinical trials of PV-10 and PH-10, or any other clinical trial we conduct, could cause the FDA to require that we repeat or conduct additional clinical studies. Despite the results reported in earlier clinical trials for PV-10 and PH-10, we do not know whether any clinical trials we may conduct will demonstrate adequate efficacy and safety to result in regulatory approval to market our product candidates. If later stage clinical trials do not produce favorable results, our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates may be adversely impacted.

Delays in clinical trials are common and have many causes, and any delay could result in increased costs to us and jeopardize or delay our ability to obtain regulatory approval.

Our planned or ongoing clinical trials may not begin on time, have an effective design, enroll a sufficient number of subjects, or be completed on schedule, if at all. Events which may result in delays or unsuccessful completion of clinical trials, including our future clinical trials, include inability to raise funding, initiate or continue a trial, delays in obtaining regulatory approval to commence a trial, delays in reaching agreement with the FDA or other regulatory authorities on final trial design, imposition of a clinical hold following an inspection of our clinical trial operations or trial sites by the FDA or other regulatory authorities, delays in reaching agreement on acceptable terms with prospective contract research organizations and clinical trial sites, delays in obtaining required institutional review board approval at each site, delays in recruiting suitable patients to participate in a trial, delays in having subjects complete participation in a trial or return for post-treatment follow-up, delays caused by subjects dropping out of a trial, delays caused by clinical sites dropping out of a trial, time required to add new clinical sites or to obtain regulatory approval and open sites in geographic regions beyond the sites initially planned, and delays by our contract manufacturers to produce and deliver sufficient supply of clinical trial materials.

In addition, we may experience a number of unforeseen events during clinical trials for our prescription drug candidates, including PV-10 and PH-10, that could delay or prevent the commencement and/or completion of our clinical trials, including regulators or institutional review boards may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospective trial site, the clinical study protocol may require one or more amendments delaying study completion, clinical trials of our product candidates may produce negative or inconclusive results, and we may decide, or regulators may require us to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs, the number of subjects required for clinical trials of our product candidates may be larger than we anticipate, subjects may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than we anticipate and enrollment in these clinical trials may be significantly slower than we anticipated requiring us to expand the geographic scope of enrollment of patients, clinical investigators or study subjects may fail to comply with clinical study protocols, trial conduct and data analysis errors may occur, including, but not limited to, data entry and/or processing errors, our third-party contractors may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us in a timely manner, or at all, we might have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our prescription drug candidates for various reasons, including a finding that the subjects are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, regulators or institutional review boards may require that we or our investigators suspend or terminate clinical research for various reasons, including noncompliance with regulatory requirements, the cost of clinical trials of our prescription drug candidates may be greater than we anticipate, the supply or quality of our clinical trial materials or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of our prescription drug candidates may be insufficient or inadequate, and our prescription drug candidates may have undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics, causing us or our investigators to suspend or terminate the trials.

Moreover, we or the FDA may suspend our clinical trials at any time if it appears we are exposing participants to unacceptable health risks or if the FDA finds deficiencies in our submissions or the conduct of these trials. If initiation or completion of any of our clinical trials for our product candidates, are delayed for any of the above reasons or other reasons, our development costs may increase, the approval process could be delayed, any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize our prescription drug candidates may be reduced and our competitors may bring drug products to market before us. Any of these events could impair our ability to generate revenues from drug product sales and impair our ability to generate regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The results of our clinical trials may not support acceptable label claims concerning our prescription drug candidates.

Even if our clinical trials are completed as planned, we cannot be certain that their results will support acceptable label claims concerning our drug product candidates. Success in pre-clinical testing and early clinical trials does not ensure that later clinical trials will be successful, and we cannot be sure that the results of later clinical trials will replicate the results of prior clinical trials and pre-clinical testing. The clinical trial process may fail to demonstrate that our prescription drug candidates are safe for humans or effective for indicated uses.

This failure could cause us to abandon a prescription drug candidate and may delay development of other prescription drug candidates. Any delay in, or termination of, our clinical trials will delay our ability to commercialize our prescription drug candidates and generate product revenues. In addition, we anticipate that our clinical trials will involve only a small patient population. Accordingly, the results of such trials may not be indicative of future results over a larger patient population.

Physicians and patients may not accept and use our prescription drug candidates.

Even if the FDA approves our drug product candidates, physicians and patients may not accept and use them. Acceptance and use of our drug products will depend upon a number of factors including perceptions by members of the healthcare community, including physicians, about the safety and effectiveness of our drug products, availability of reimbursement for our drug products from government or other healthcare payers, and effectiveness of marketing and distribution efforts by us and our licensees and distributors, if any.

Because we expect sales or licensure of our prescription drug candidates, ~~if approved,~~ to generate substantially all of our revenues if they are approved, the failure of any of these drugs to find market acceptance would harm our business and could require us to seek additional financing.

We have no sales, marketing, or distribution capabilities for our prescription drug candidates.

We currently have no sales, marketing, or distribution capabilities. Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to enter into and maintain collaborative relationships, the collaborator’s strategic interest in the prescription drug products under development and such collaborator’s ability to successfully market and sell any such drug products. There can be no assurance that we will be able to establish or maintain relationships with third party collaborators or develop in-house sales and distribution capabilities. To the extent that we depend on third parties for marketing and distribution, any revenues we receive will depend upon the efforts of such third parties, and there can be no assurance that such efforts will be successful. In addition, there can also be no assurance that we will be able to market and sell our prescription drug candidates in the U.S. or internationally.

Competition in the prescription pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries is intense.

Other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research organizations currently engage in or have in the past engaged in research efforts related to treatment of cancer and dermatological conditions, which may compete with our clinical trials for patients and investigator resources, cause lower enrollment than anticipated, and could lead to the development of drug products or treatment therapies that could compete directly with our drug product candidates that we are seeking to develop and market.

Many companies are also developing novel therapies to treat cancer and dermatological conditions and, in this regard, are our competitors. Many of the pharmaceutical companies developing and marketing these competing products have greater financial resources and expertise than we do in research and development, manufacturing, non-clinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals, and marketing.

Smaller companies may also prove to be competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with larger and more established companies that may compete with our efforts to establish similar collaborative arrangements. Academic institutions, government agencies, and other public and private research organizations may also conduct research, seek patent protection, and establish collaborative arrangements for research, clinical development, and marketing of prescription drug candidates similar to ours. These companies and institutions compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified scientific and management personnel as well as in acquiring technologies complementary to our drug development programs.

In addition to the above factors, we expect to face competition in product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory consents, availability of resources, reimbursement coverage, price, and patent position, including potentially dominant patent positions of others.

Since our prescription drug candidates PV-10 and PH-10 have not yet been approved by the FDA or introduced to the marketplace, we cannot estimate what competition these prescription drug candidates might face when they are finally introduced, if at all. We cannot assure you that these prescription drug candidates will not face significant competition for other approved drug products, investigational drug products, and generic equivalents.

If we lose any of our key personnel, we may be unable to successfully execute our business plan.

Our business is presently managed by key Board members and employees: (i) Ed Pershing, who is CEO and chairman of the Board, (ii) Dominic Rodrigues, who is President and vice chairman of the Board, (iii) Eric Wachter, Ph.D., our CTO, and (iv) Heather Raines, CPA, our CFO.

In order to successfully execute our business plan, our management and Board must succeed in all of the following critical areas: researching diseases and possible therapies in the areas of oncology and dermatology, developing our prescription drugs candidates, marketing and selling developed prescription drug candidates, obtaining additional capital to finance research and development production, and marketing of our drug products, and managing our business as it grows.

Disruption resulting from management transition may have a detrimental impact on our ability to implement our strategy. The reduction in role and/or loss of key employees, contractors, and/or Board members could have a material adverse effect on our operations, and limit or constrain our ability to execute our business plan.

Our business and operations are subject to risks related to climate change.

The long-term effects of global climate change present risks to our business. Extreme weather or other conditions caused by climate change could adversely impact our supply chain and the operation of our business. Such conditions could also result in physical damage to our leased property, clinical trial materials, clinical sites, or the facilities of our contract manufacturers. These events could adversely affect our operations and our financial performance.

Our business and operations are vulnerable to computer system failures, cyber-attacks, or deficiencies in our cyber-security, which could increase our expenses, divert the attention of our management and key personnel away from our business operations and adversely affect our results of operations.

Despite the implementation of security measures, our internal computer systems, and those of third parties on which we rely, are vulnerable to damage from: computer viruses; malware; natural disasters; terrorism; war; telecommunication and electrical failures; cyber-attacks or cyber-intrusions over the Internet; attachments to emails; persons inside our organization; or persons with access to systems inside our organization. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attacks or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments, and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. If such an event were to occur and cause interruptions in our operations, it could result in a material disruption of our product development programs. For example, the loss of clinical trial data from completed or ongoing or planned clinical trials could result in delays in our regulatory approval efforts and significantly increase our costs to recover or reproduce the data. To the extent that any disruption or security breach was to result in a loss of or damage to our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could incur material legal claims and liability, and damage to our reputation, and the further development of our product candidates could be delayed. We could be forced to expend significant resources in response to a cyber security breach, including repairing system damage, increasing cyber security protection costs by deploying additional personnel and protection technologies, paying regulatory fines, and resolving legal claims and regulatory actions, all of which would increase our expenses, divert the attention of our management and key personnel away from our business operations and adversely affect our results of operations.

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property (“IP”)

If we are unable to secure or enforce patent rights, trademarks, trade secrets or other IP, our business could be harmed.

We may not be successful in securing or maintaining proprietary patent protection for our prescription drug candidates and technologies we develop or license. In addition, our competitors may develop prescription drug candidates similar to ours using methods and technologies that are beyond the scope of our IP protection, which could reduce our anticipated sales. While some of our drug product candidates have proprietary patent protection, a challenge to these patents can subject us to expensive litigation. Litigation concerning patents, other forms of IP, and proprietary technology is becoming more widespread and can be protracted and expensive and can distract management and other personnel from performing product development duties.

We also rely upon trade secrets, unpatented proprietary knowledge and continuing technological innovation to develop a competitive position. We cannot assure you that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary technology and techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets and technology, or that we can adequately protect our trade secrets and technology.

If we are unable to secure or enforce patent rights, trademarks, trade secrets, or other IP, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. If we infringe on the IP of others, our business could be harmed.

We could be sued for infringing patents and other IP that purportedly cover prescription drug candidates and/or methods of using such prescription drug candidates held by persons other than us. Litigation arising from an alleged infringement could result in removal from the market, or a substantial delay in, or prevention of, the introduction of our prescription drug candidates, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

If we do not update and enhance our technologies, they will become obsolete.

The pharmaceutical market is characterized by technological change, and our future success will depend on our ability to conduct successful research in our fields of expertise, discover new technologies as a result of that research, develop products based on our technologies, and commercialize those products. While we believe that our current technology is adequate for our present needs, if we fail to stay at the forefront of technological development, we will be unable to compete effectively. Our competitors may use greater resources to develop new pharmaceutical technologies and to commercialize products based on those technologies. Accordingly, our technologies may be rendered obsolete by advances in existing technologies or the development of different technologies by one or more of our current or future competitors.

Risks Related to Our Governing Documents and Securities

Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents and Delaware law may discourage or prevent a change of control, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders, which could affect our stock price adversely and prevent attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management.

Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change of control of our company or changes in our board of directors that our stockholders might consider favorable. Among other things, these provisions will (i) permit our Board to issue up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock which can be created and issued by the Board without prior stockholder approval, with rights senior to those of the common stock, (ii) provide that all vacancies on our Board, including as a result of newly created directorships, may, except as otherwise required by law, be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, (iii) require that any action to be taken by our stockholders must be affected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and not be taken by written consent, (iv) provide that stockholders seeking to present proposals before a meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at a meeting of stockholders must provide advance notice in writing, and also specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice, (v) not provide for cumulative voting rights, and (vi) provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by the Board or by such person or persons requested by a majority of the Board to call such meetings.

These and other provisions in our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws and Delaware law could make it more difficult for stockholders or potential acquirers to obtain control of our Board or initiate actions that are opposed by our then-current Board, including delaying or impeding a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest involving our company. Any delay or prevention of a change of control transaction or changes in our Board could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

Our stock price is below $5.00 per share and is treated as a “penny stock,” which places restrictions on broker-dealers recommending the stock for purchase.

Our common stock is defined as “penny stock” under the Exchange Act and its rules. The SEC has adopted regulations that define “penny stock” to include common stock that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These rules include the following requirements: (i) broker-dealers must deliver, prior to the transaction, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, (ii) broker-dealers must disclose the commissions payable to the broker-dealer and its registered representative, (iii) broker-dealers must disclose current quotations for the securities, and (iv) a broker-dealer must furnish its customers with monthly statements disclosing recent price information for all penny stocks held in the customer’s account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Additional sales practice requirements are imposed on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and must have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. If our common stock remains subject to these penny stock rules these disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our stock, which could affect a shareholder’s ability to sell their shares.

Future sales by our stockholders may adversely affect our stock price and our ability to raise funds in new stock offerings.

Sales of our common stock in the public market following any prospective offering could lower the market price of our common stock. Sales may also make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that our management deems acceptable.

It is our general policy to retain any earnings for use in our operation.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain all of our future earnings, if any, for use in our business and therefore do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

In the event of the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company or certain mergers, corporate reorganizations or sales of our assets, holders of Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock will be entitled to a preference of a multiple of their investment amount, which will reduce the proceeds to be received by holders of our common stock.

In connection with the 2025, 2024, 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2017 Financings, we have issued convertible notes that converted or are convertible into shares of Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock. The Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock will have a first priority right to receive proceeds from the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of us or certain mergers, corporate reorganizations, or sales of our assets (each, a “Company Event”). If a Company Event occurs within two (2) years of the date of issuance of the Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock (the “Date of Issuance”), the holders of Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock will receive a preference of four times (4x) their respective investment amount. If a Company Event occurs after the second (2nd) anniversary of the Date of Issuance, the holders of the Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock will receive a preference of six times (6x) their respective investment amount. As a result, upon the occurrence of a Company Event, the holders of Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock would have the right to receive proceeds from any such transaction before our common stockholders. The payment of this preference could result in our common stockholders not receiving any consideration in connection with a Company Event.

CYBERSECURITY.

Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy

Provectus Biopharmaceuticals understands the importance of managing risks from cybersecurity threats and maintains a comprehensive cybersecurity program developed with reference to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”) cybersecurity framework. Our cybersecurity program includes administrative, organizational, technical, and physical safeguards reasonably designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our data. We devote significant resources to network, operations, and product security, data encryption, business continuity/disaster recovery, vulnerability management, event monitoring and incident response, and other measures to protect our systems and data from unauthorized external access or internal misuse.

Our use of information systems for accessing, transmitting, and storing data is a vital aspect of our business operations. Information systems can be vulnerable to a range of cybersecurity threats that could potentially have a material impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Cybersecurity is a key category within our risk management efforts, and our cybersecurity risk management is intended to assist in assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats to the Company’s information systems. Our cybersecurity risk management and strategy are based upon utilizing systems that are cloud-based which require multifactor authentication to access. Due to our small size, we partner with a third-party service provider which utilizes multiple security operations centers. The security operations centers maintain, monitor, mitigate, and alert on threats against the cloud systems that we utilize. If a risk is identified, the security operations center has the ability to shut down access to any user in the Company.

The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors is responsible for oversight of the Company’s cybersecurity risk management. Management’s role is to assist the Audit Committee in identifying and considering material cybersecurity risks, ensure implementation of management- and employee-level cybersecurity practices and training, and provide the Audit Committee with unrestricted access to Company personnel and documents regarding any cybersecurity attacks or vulnerabilities.

We also require our employees to participate in cybersecurity training and awareness programs. The Company’s employees are expected to help safeguard the Company’s information systems and to assist in the discovery and reporting of cybersecurity incidents. These programs are intended to decrease cybersecurity risks associated with human error and foster a culture of cybersecurity consciousness.

To date, the risks from cybersecurity threats, including because of any previous immaterial cybersecurity incidents, have not materially affected nor are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. While our insurance covers certain cyber-security-related matters, the costs related to cybersecurity threats or disruptions may not be fully insured.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to our results of operations and our financial condition together with our consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the statements of operations, including trends which might appear, are not necessarily indicative of future operations.

Business Strategy

The Company is selectively continuing ongoing and planning to initiate new monotherapy and/or combination therapy ITU PV-10 clinical trials inof ~~melanoma~~solid ~~and~~tumor ~~liver~~ cancer indications to generate more and/or new clinical data and appropriately utilizing clinical data from historical ITU PV-10 trials, EAPs, and/or QOL study of these oncology indications. Our goals are to pursue drug approval pathways and/or co-development relationships with commercial pharmaceutical companies for ITU PV-10 based on these indications and data.

The Company is developing a systemically administered formulation of pharmaceutical-grade RBS for the treatment of cancer. Our goals, when this work is complete, are to file an investigational new drug application (“IND”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), take an initial systemic drug candidate into an early-stage clinic trial for an initial oncology or hematology indication, and/or pursue a co-development collaboration or out-license arrangement for this route of administration and disease area.

The Company is developing different formulations of pharmaceutical-grade RBS using different concentrations and different routes of administration for other disease areas by endeavoring to show non-clinical activity and lack of toxicity. Our goals, when each task of this work is completed, are to file an IND with the FDA, take an initial drug candidate into an early-stage clinic trial for an initial indication, and/or pursue a co-development collaboration or out-license arrangement for the respective disease area and route of administration.

RBS API and Drug Candidate Manufacturing

Our pharmaceutical-grade RBS resulted from the Company’s innovation of a proprietary, patented, commercial-scale process to synthesize and utilize the RBS molecule into a viable active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) for commercial pharmaceutical use; the development of unique chemistry, manufacturing, and control (“CMC”) specifications for API and drug candidate manufacturing processes; the production and multi-year stability testing of multiple API and drug candidate lots; the comprehensive documentation of lot composition and reproducibility; and the review and acceptance of CMC data from these lots by seven different national drug regulatory agencies for use in a prior, multi-country, multi-center Phase 3 randomized control trial of the Company.

The Company’s processes of synthesizing the RBS molecule into pharmaceutical-grade RBS and manufacturing RBS API and ITU PV-10 drug candidate, the processes’ CMC specifications, and the CMC data from the production of stability lots of API and drug candidate have been reviewed by multiple national drug regulatory agencies prior to granting clinical trial authorizations for the Company to commence a historical Phase 3 study of ITU PV-10 for the treatment of the Company’s former lead indication of locally advanced cutaneous melanoma, including the U.S. FDA, Germany’s Bundesinstitut für Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte (BfArM), Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) under a clinical trial notification, France’s Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament et des Produits de Santé (ANSM), Italy’s Agenzia Italiana del Farmaco (AIFA), Mexico’s Comisión Federal para la Protección contra Riesgos Sanitarios (COFEPRIS), and Argentina’s Administración Nacional de Medicamentos, Alimentos y Tecnología Médica (ANMAT).

RBS Non-proprietary Name

The RBS name for the Company’s pharmaceutical-grade API was selected by and passed the review of the World Health Organization (“WHO”) Expert Advisory Panel on the International Pharmacopoeia and Pharmaceutical Preparations after the Company applied for a non-proprietary name in the third quarter of 2020 and reached the status of recommended International Non-proprietary Names (“INN”). INN Recommended List 88, which includes the RBS name, was published with the No. 3 issue of the WHO Drug Information, Volume 36 in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Non-Pharmaceutical Grades of Rose Bengal

Commercial Grade

Commercial grade rose bengal can be purchased from specialty chemical suppliers in the U.S. and in other parts of the world that manufacture it under non-cGMP conditions. Commercial grade rose bengal appears to have reported purities that may vary between 80% and 95% and may contain substantial amounts of unreported impurities and/or gross contaminants. Commercial grade rose bengal is typically used by researchers unaffiliated with the Company for non-clinical study of the rose bengal molecule for potential biomedical therapeutic applications.

Diagnostic Grade

Chemical Analytical Comparison

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company began work with a U.S. contract development and manufacturing organization to assess rigorously and methodically three lots of commercial grade rose bengal, one each from three different specialty chemical suppliers, and compare these non-pharmaceutical grade materials with the Company’s pharmaceutical-grade RBS. This chemical analytical work was substantially completed by the end of the third quarter of 2022. The Company believes that the preliminary results of these analyses indicate that all three lots of commercial grade rose bengal had rose bengal purity that was drastically different from what was represented on their respective certificates of analysis (“CofAs”), and that one of the three lots contained gross contaminants that were not represented on its CofA.

Grant Revenue

Grant revenue is recognized when qualifying costs are incurred and there is reasonable assurance that the conditions of the grant have been met. Cash received from grants in advance of incurring qualifying costs is recorded as unearned grant revenue and recognized as grant revenue when qualifying costs are incurred.

Research and Development Expenses

~~A large~~Research ~~component~~and ofdevelopment ~~our total operating~~ expenses isinclude ~~the~~costs ~~Company’s~~incurred ~~investment~~ in ~~research~~connection ~~and~~with ~~development~~research activities, ~~including~~and the ~~clinical~~ clinical development of our product candidates. ~~Research and development expenses represent costs incurred to conduct research and undertake clinical trials to develop our drug product candidates.~~ These expenses consist primarily of:

● costs of conducting clinical trials, including amounts paid to clinical centers, clinical research organizations, and consultants, among others; ● salaries and related expenses for personnel, including stock-based compensation expense; ● other outside service costs including cost of contract manufacturing; ● the costs of supplies and reagents; and ● occupancy and depreciation charges.

We expense research and development costs as incurred.

Research and development activities are central to our business model. We expect our research and development expenses to increase in the future as we advance our existing product candidates through clinical trials and pursue their regulatory approval. Undertaking clinical development and pursuing regulatory approval are both costly and time-consuming activities. As a result of known and unknown uncertainties, we are unable to determine the duration and completion costs of our research and development activities, or if, when, and to what extent we will generate revenue from any subsequent commercialization and sale of our drug product candidates.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of ~~salaries, stock~~personnel-~~based compensation expense and other~~ related costs, ~~for~~including ~~personnel in executive~~salaries, ~~finance~~benefits, ~~accounting~~and stock-based compensation, ~~business~~for ~~development,~~employees ~~legal,~~engaged ~~information~~in ~~technology~~executive and ~~corporate~~finance ~~communication~~ functions. ~~Other~~General ~~costs~~ and administrative expenses also include facility -related costs not otherwise included in research and development expenses, director fees, insurance costs, and professional fees for legal, patent, accounting, information technology, corporate communications, and ~~accounting~~other consulting services provided by third-party firms.

The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been prepared on a basis that contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. We have continuing net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities. In addition, we have an accumulated deficit of $262,853,811 as of December 31, 2025. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the date that the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are issued. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on our ability to obtain additional financing as may be required to fund current operations.

Management’s plans include selling our equity securities and obtaining other financing to fund our capital requirements and on-going operations, including the 2025 Financing discussed above; however, there can be no assurance we will be successful in these efforts. Significant funds will be needed to continue and complete our ongoing and planned clinical trials.

As of December 31, ~~2024~~2025, cash requirements for our current liabilities include approximately $3,~~307~~925,~~226~~681 for accounts payable and other accrued expenses (including lease liabilities) and a $~~206~~217,~~463~~772 note payable related to our ~~short-term~~ financing of our commercial ~~insurance~~ insurance policies and purchased software.

Access to Capital

Management plans to access capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, including the 2025 Financing, exchange offers, debt financings, corporate collaborations, or other means. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital through the 2025 Financing or otherwise, we will not be able to pay our obligations as they become due.

27The primary business objective of management is to build the Company into a commercial-stage biotechnology company; however, we cannot assure you that management will be successful in implementing the Company’s business plan of developing, licensing, and/or commercializing our prescription drug candidates. Moreover, even if we are successful in improving our current cash flow position, we nonetheless plan to seek additional funds to meet our current and long-term requirements in 2026 and beyond. We anticipate that these funds will otherwise come from the proceeds of private placement transactions, including the 2025 Financing, exercise of outstanding stock options, or public offerings of debt or equity securities. While we believe that we have a reasonable basis for our expectation that we will be able to raise additional funds, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete additional financing in a timely manner. In addition, any such financing may result in significant dilution to stockholders.

In addition, any such financing may result in significant dilution to stockholders.follows:

During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, our sources and uses of cash were as follows:

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

We experienced negative cash flows from operating activities for the years ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024 in the amounts of $3,~~284~~325,~~091~~ 991 and $23,~~571~~284,~~978~~091, respectively. The net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025 was primarily due to cash used to fund a net loss of $45,~~762~~505,~~137~~123, adjusted for non-cash items in the aggregate amount of $1,~~335~~287,~~335,~~537 mainly driven by stock-based compensation, plus $~~156~~891,~~942~~595 of cash generated from changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities. The net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, ~~2023~~2024 was primarily due to cash used to fund a net loss of $34,~~101~~762,~~768~~137, adjusted for non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $561,~~868~~335, 335 mainly driven by stock-based compensation, plus $~~472~~142,~~922~~711 of cash generated from changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities during the years ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024 was $23,~~733~~087,~~158~~006 and $2,~~191~~747,~~555~~865, respectively. During the year ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025, we received $2,~~853~~510,000 proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes payable, $~~300~~850,000 from the issuance of common stock of our majority-owned subsidiary, VisiRose, and offset by $~~100~~272,~~000~~994 ~~repayment of a 2021 convertible note payable and $305,135~~ for the repayment of the short-term note payable. ~~During~~ During the year ended December 31, ~~2023~~2024, we received $2,~~475~~853,000 proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes payable and ~~paid~~ received $~~283~~300,~~445~~000 ~~for~~ from the ~~repayment~~issuance of common stock of our majority-owned subsidiary, VisiRose. These cash proceeds were offset by the $305,135 repayment of a short-term note payable, and the $100,000 repayment of a 2021 convertible note payable.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which require our management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations would be affected. We base our estimates on our own historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable after taking account of our circumstances and expectations for the future based on available information. We evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis.

We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (ii) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. There are items within our consolidated financial statements that require estimation but are not deemed critical, as defined above.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of

Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance ~~sheets~~sheet of Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, ~~2024 and 2023~~2025, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for ~~each of~~ the ~~two~~year ~~years~~then ~~in the period~~ ended ~~December 31~~, ~~2024,~~ and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, based on our ~~audits~~audit, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, ~~2024 and 2023~~2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for ~~each of~~ the ~~two~~year ~~years~~then ~~in the period~~ ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Notes 2 and 11 to the financial statements, the Company adopted ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). We have also audited the adjustments to the 2024 financial statements retrospectively adjust the disclosures for the adoption of ASU 2023-09 in 2025. In our opinion, such retrospective adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the 2024 financial statements of the Company other than with respect to these retrospective adjustments, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2024 financial statements taken as a whole.

Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has a significant working capital deficit, has incurred significant losses and needs to raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about ~~the~~ the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

PROVECTUS BIOPHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business Organization and Nature of Operations

Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Provectus” or “the Company”), is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing immunotherapy medicines for different diseases based on a class of bioactive synthetic small molecule halogenated xanthenes (“HXs”). Our lead HX molecule is named rose bengal sodium (“RBS”).

The Company’s proprietary, patented, pharmaceutical-grade RBS is the active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) in the drug candidates of our current clinical development programs and the formulations of our current non-clinical in vivo proof-of-concept and in vitro early discovery programs. Importantly, our pharmaceutical-grade RBS displays different therapeutic effects at different concentrations and can be formulated for delivery by different routes of administration.

The Company believes that RBS targets disease in a bifunctional multi-modal manner. Direct contact by RBS with disease may lead to cell death or repair, depending on the disease being treated and the concentration of RBS being utilized in the therapeutic formulation, by one or more targeting mechanisms. Multivariate innate and adaptive immune activation, signaling, and response may follow that may manifest as stimulatory, inhibitory, or both.

The Company believes that it is the first entity to advance an RBS formulation into clinical trials for the treatment of a disease, such as those trials reported on the clinical trials registry at ClinicalTrials.gov. The Company believes that it is the first and only entity to date to make pharmaceutical-grade RBS successfully, reproducibly, and consistently at a purity of nearly 100%.

The Company’s small molecule platform comprises several different drug candidates and non-clinical targets using different concentrations delivered by different routes of administration specific to each disease area and/or disease indication, including:

	●	Clinical development programs in oncology (intratumoral administration), dermatology (topical), and ophthalmology (topical),

	●	In vivo: Proof-of-concept programs in oncology (oral), hematology (oral), wound healing (topical), and canine cancers (intratumoral), and

	●	In vitro: Early discovery programs in infectious diseases and tissue regeneration and repair.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to successfully develop and license or commercialize the Company’s prescription drug candidates.

2. Liquidity and Going Concern

To date, the Company has not generated any revenues or profits from planned principal operations.

The Company’s ~~aggregate~~ cash ~~and restricted cash~~ balance was $~~489~~251,~~726~~ 291 at December 31, ~~2024~~2025. ~~which~~There ~~includes~~was ~~$182,284 of~~no restricted cash ~~resulting~~associated ~~from~~with athe grant received from the State of Tennessee at December 31, 2025 due to the completion of the grant award program during 2025. The Company’s working capital ~~deficiency~~deficit was $56,~~998~~329,~~712~~503 and $75,~~652~~998,~~098~~712 as of December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024, respectively,. Net loss for the years ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024 were $45,~~762~~505,~~137~~124 and $34,~~101~~762,~~768~~137, respectively, and cash used in operations was $3,~~284~~325,~~091~~991 and $23,~~571~~284,~~978~~091 for the years ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024, respectively. Since the Company’s inception, there has been a history of recurring net losses from operations, recurring use of cash in operating activities and working capital deficits.

F-78

Future cash requirements for our current liabilities include approximately $3.~~3 million~~9 million for accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximately $0.2 ~~million~~ million for notes payable and approximately $2648,000 ~~for~~ for future payments under operating leases. ~~The~~Also, ~~Company~~a ~~continues~~related toparty ~~incur~~convertible ~~significant~~note ~~operating~~payable ~~losses.~~in ~~Further~~the amount of $100,000 plus ~~Management~~approximately ~~expects~~$59,444 ~~that~~of ~~significant~~related ~~on-going~~interest ~~operating~~is ~~expenditures~~past ~~will~~due, beand ~~necessary~~additional toconvertible ~~successfully~~debt ~~implement~~in the ~~Company’s~~amount ~~business~~of ~~plan~~$2,510,000 plus ~~and~~$107,824 ~~develop~~of ~~and~~accrued ~~market~~interest ~~its~~will ~~products.~~mature 1 one year from the date of the notes if not converted prior to maturity,

The Company continues to incur significant operating losses. Further, Management expects that significant on-going operating expenditures will be necessary to successfully implement the Company’s business plan and develop and market its products.

These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued.

The Company plans to access capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, including additional convertible debt issuance pursuant to the 2025 Financing (see Note 5 ~~and Note 10~~), exchange offers, debt financings, corporate collaborations, or other means. In addition, the Company continues to explore opportunities to strategically monetize its lead drug candidates, PV-10 and PH-10, through potential co-development and licensing transactions, although there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful with such plans. The Company has historically been able to raise capital through equity offerings, although there can be no assurance that it will continue to be successful in the future. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient capital, it will not be able to pay its obligations as they become due.

~~Under~~These ~~ASC~~factors ~~Subtopic~~raise ~~205-40,~~substantial ~~Presentation~~doubt ofabout ~~Financial~~the ~~Statements—Going~~Company’s ~~Concern~~ability ~~(“ASC~~to ~~205-40”),~~continue ~~the~~as ~~Company~~a ~~has~~going ~~the~~concern. ~~responsibility to~~Management’s ~~evaluate~~plans ~~whether~~to ~~conditions~~mitigate the ~~and/or~~factors ~~events~~which raise substantial doubt ~~about~~include ~~its~~(1) ~~ability~~raising tofunds ~~meet~~from ~~future~~the ~~financial~~proceeds ~~obligations~~of asprivate ~~they~~placement ~~become due~~transactions, ~~within~~the ~~one~~exercise of ~~year~~outstanding ~~after~~stock ~~the~~options, ~~date~~or ~~that~~public ~~these~~offerings ~~financial~~of ~~statements~~debt ~~are~~or ~~issued.~~equity ~~The~~securities, ~~accompanying~~and ~~consolidated~~(2) ~~financial~~monetizing ~~statements~~the ~~have been~~Company’s ~~prepared~~lead ondrug candidates.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated results of Provectus, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and its ~~newly created~~ majority-owned subsidiary, VisiRose (see Note 1615). The interests of non-controlling shareholders in VisiRose are presented as net ~~income~~loss attributable to noncontrolling interest in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and as noncontrolling interest in subsidiary in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, accrued liabilities, and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets.

F-9

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash of $182,284 as of December 31, 2024 consists of a grant award received from the State of Tennessee. ~~Restricted~~There ~~cash~~was no restricted cash available as of December 31, ~~2024~~2025 isdue ~~$182,284~~to the completion of the grant award program during 2025. See Note 1514, Grants.

Cash Concentrations

Cash and restricted cash are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed federally insured limits of $250,000, although the Company seeks to minimize this through treasury management. The Company has never experienced any losses related to these balances although no assurance can be provided that it will not experience any losses in the future. As of December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024, the Company had cash and restricted cash balances in excess of FDIC insurance limits of $~~239~~1,~~726~~291 and $~~776~~239,~~799~~726, respectively.

Equipment and Furnishings, net

Equipment and furnishings are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of equipment and furnishings is provided for using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Computers and office equipment are being depreciated over five years; furniture and fixtures are being depreciated over ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of (a) the useful life of the asset; or (b) the remaining lease term. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. The Company capitalizes ~~cost~~costs attributable to the betterment of property and equipment when such betterment extends the useful life of the assets.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever an event or change in circumstances indicates that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Any long-lived assets held for disposal are reported at the lower of their carrying amounts or fair value less cost to sell. Management has determined there to be no impairment of its long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024.

F-8

Short-term Receivables

Management estimates expected credit losses immediately based on existing economic conditions in addition to current and future economic conditions and events. Receivables are considered past due if full payment is not received by the contractual date. Past due amounts are generally written off against the reserve for uncollectibility only after all collection attempts have been exhausted. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was no allowance for uncollectible amounts.

Grant Revenue

Grant revenue is recognized when qualifying costs are incurred and there is reasonable assurance that the conditions of the grant have been met. Cash received from grants in advance of incurring qualifying costs is recorded as restricted cash and unearned grant revenue. ~~and~~Grant ~~recognized~~revenue asis ~~grant~~recognized ~~revenue~~ when qualifying costs are incurred.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of payroll and related costs, including stock-based compensation, consulting and contract labor, laboratory supplies and pharmaceutical preparations, insurance, rent and utilities, and depreciation and amortization.

F-10

Patent Costs

The Company expenses all costs as incurred in connection with patent applications (including direct application fees, and the legal and consulting expenses related to making such applications) and such costs are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Leases

The Company leases properties under operating leases. The Company recognizes a liability to make lease payments, the “lease liability”, ” and an asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term, the “right-of-use asset” upon the commencement of a lease. The lease liability is measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The right-of-use asset is measured at the amount of the lease liability adjusted for the remaining balance of any lease incentives received, any cumulative prepaid or accrued rent if the lease payments are uneven throughout the lease term, any unamortized initial direct costs, and any impairment of the right-of-use-asset. Operating lease expense consists of a single lease cost calculated so that the remaining cost of the lease is allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis, variable lease payments not included in the lease liability, and any impairment of the right-of-use asset.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all, or some portion, of deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance to reduce its net deferred income tax assets to zero. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize some or all its deferred income tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred income tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained upon an examination. Any recognized income tax positions would be measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement would be reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company would recognize any corresponding interest and penalties associated with its income tax positions in income tax expense. There were no income taxes, interest or penalties incurred in ~~2024~~2025 or ~~2023~~2024.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 815: Derivatives and Hedging. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record qualifying embedded conversion options and any related freestanding instruments at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income, or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. Embedded conversion options classified as derivative liabilities and any related equity classified freestanding instruments are recorded as a discount to the host instrument.

F-9

Preferred Stock

The Company applies the accounting standards for distinguishing liabilities from equity when determining the classification and measurement of its preferred stock. Preferred shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable preferred shares (including preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, preferred shares are classified as equity.

F-11

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other instruments to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The following securities are excluded from the calculation of weighted average dilutive common shares because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company determines the estimated fair value of amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements using available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The estimates presented in the consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current exchange between buyer and seller. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. These fair value estimates were based upon pertinent information available as of December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, restricted cash, ~~receivables,~~ other current assets, accounts payable, unearned grant income, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The carrying amounts of our credit obligations approximate fair value because the effective yields on these obligations, which include contractual interest rates, are comparable to rates of returns for instruments of similar credit risk.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1		Inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2		Inputs use directly or indirectly observable inputs. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets as well as other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3		Inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability.

F-10

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.

Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that are classified within the Level 3 category. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets within the Level 3 category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable (e.g., changes in historical company data) inputs. Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.F-12

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s reporting currency is the United States Dollar. The functional currencies of the Company’s operating subsidiaries are their local currencies (United States Dollar and Australian Dollar). Australian Dollar denominated assets and liabilities of $711,~~295~~787 and $1,~~020~~ 650 at December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and $137,~~916~~ 295 and $81,~~810~~ 020 at December 31, ~~2023~~2024, respectively are translated into the United States Dollar at the balance sheet date, and net expense accounts of ($~~1,745~~11) and ($91,~~763~~ 745) for the years ended December 31, ~~2024~~2025 and ~~2023~~2024, ~~respectively~~ respectively are translated at a weighted average exchange rate for the years then ended. Equity is translated at historical rates and the resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”), ~~which~~ which is a separate component of stockholders’ deficit. Therefore, the U.S. dollar value of the non-equity translated items in the Company’s consolidated financial statements will fluctuate from period to period, ~~depending~~as onthe result of the changing value of the U.S. dollar versus ~~these~~the ~~currencies~~Australian Dollar.

The Company engages in foreign currency denominated transactions with its Australian subsidiary. At the date that the transaction is recognized, each asset, liability, revenue, expense, gain, or loss arising from the transaction is measured and recorded in the functional currency of the recording entity using the exchange rate in effect at that date. At each balance sheet date, recorded monetary balances denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are adjusted using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, with gains or losses recorded in other income or other expense.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. The fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and then is recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The Company computes the fair value of equity-classified options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected volatility factor of the market price of the Company’s common stock which is determined by reviewing its historical public market closing prices.

Segment

The Company has one operating and reporting segment (clinical stage biotechnology), namely, the development of immunotherapy medicines. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is the Company’s chief executive officer, utilizes the Company’s financial information on an aggregate, consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and assessing financial performance, as well as for making strategic operations decisions and managing the organization. The CODM is not regularly provided with ~~disaggregated~~ disaggregated expense information, other than the expense information included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets.

~~F-11~~Reclassifications

A portion of the prior period stock-based compensation expense, which was previously reported in general and administrative expenses, has been reclassified to research and development expense in order to conform to the current period presentation. This reclassification has no effect on previously reported results of operations or loss per share.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this update address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This update also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating any new disclosures that may be required upon adoption of ASU 2023-09.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. ASU 2024-03 is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and provide more detailed information to investors about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments in this ASU will be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of implementing this guidance.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832) – Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. This ASU establishes authoritative guidance on the accounting for government grants received by business entities, which previously did not exist. In the absence of specific guidance, many business entities analogized to the guidance in International Accounting Standard (IAS) 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance, or Subtopic 958-605, Not-for-Profit Entities—Revenue Recognition. The ASU defines two types of government grants: (1) a grant related to an asset (for which there are two approaches to record the grant proceeds) and (2) a grant related to income. A grant related to an asset is conditioned on the purchase, construction, or acquisition of an asset (for example, a long-lived asset or inventory). A grant related to income is other than a grant related to an asset (for example, a grant that reimburses a business entity for operating expenses). The ASU defines the criteria that need to be met in order to recognize government grant proceeds and prescribes that a business entity present a grant related to income and a grant related to an asset for which the deferred income approach is elected as part of earnings either (1) separately under a general heading such as other income or (2) deducted from the related expense. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of implementing this guidance.

2021 Financing

The 2021 Financing is in the form of unsecured convertible notes (individually, a “2021 Note” and collectively, the “2021 Notes”). Pursuant to the 2021 Term Sheet, the 2021 Notes will either be paid back, convert into shares of the Company’s Series D-1 Preferred Stock, or convert into Company equity securities and/or debt instruments of certain future financings on or before twelve months after the issue date of a 2021 Note, subject to certain exceptions.

In addition to customary provisions, the 2021 Notes contain the following provisions:

	(i)	The 2021 Notes bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum on the outstanding principal amount of the loan that has been funded to the Company;

	(ii)	In the event there is a change of control of the Board, the term of the 2021 Notes will be accelerated and all amounts due under the 2021 Notes may be immediately due and payable at the investors’ option;

	(iii)	The outstanding principal amount and interest payment under the 2021 Notes may be paid back at maturity at the investors’ option;

	(iv)	The outstanding principal amount and interest payable under the 2021 Notes are convertible at the holders’ option into shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to $2.862. The Series D-1 Preferred Stock is convertible into ten (10) shares of common stock; and

	(v)	In the event the Company conducts a qualified equity or debt financing and the Company receives gross proceeds in the aggregate amount of $20 million, the 2021 Notes may be converted into the equity securities and/or debt instruments of such financing at the same terms as those investors.

The embedded conversion options associated with the 2021 Notes do not require bifurcation and treatment as a derivative liability.

On December 2, 2024, the Company granted five and ten-year options for the purchase of 50,318,102 shares of the Company’s common stock exercisable at $0.2862 per share, as follows:

	●	Ten-year options for the purchase of 1,550,164 shares of the Company’s common stock, with an aggregate grant date value of $112,070 were granted to certain directors of the Company. The options were fully vested upon grant.
	●	Ten-year options for the purchase of 47,953,253 shares of the Company’s common stock, with an aggregate grant date value of $3,466,802 were granted to certain Company executives. One-third of the options were fully vested upon grant; the remaining two-thirds vested on each of the next two anniversaries of the date of grant.
	●	Five-year options for the purchase of 814,685 shares of the Company’s common stock, with an aggregate grant date value of $39,317 were granted to an employee of the Company. One-third of the options were fully vested upon grant; the remaining two-thirds vested on each of the next two anniversaries of the date of grant.

F-17

The grant date value of the stock options was calculated using the Black Sholes valuation model with the following assumptions:

Risk free interest rate	4.08 - 4.19%
	Options granted during the year ended December 31,
Expected term (years)	3.0 – 5.5
	2025							2024
Expected volatility	94% - 100%
Risk free interest rate		3.84	%			3.86	%		4.08	%	-		4.19	%
Expected dividends	0.00%
Expected term (years)		2.5		-		2.5			3.0		-		5.5
Expected volatility		90	%	-		91	%		94	%	-		100	%
Expected dividends				0.00	%						0.00	%

Option forfeitures are accounted for at the time of occurrence. The expected term used is the estimated period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company utilizes the “simplified” method to develop an estimate of the expected term of employee option grants. The Company utilizes an expected volatility figure based on the historical volatility of its common stock over a period of time equivalent to the expected term of the instrument being valued. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term consistent with the expected term of the instrument being valued. Forfeitures during the period primarily relate to the options previously held by a former executive officer.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1,237,546. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1,280,~~786~~776. As of December 31, ~~2024~~2025, there was $21,~~337~~230,~~412~~ 608 of unrecognized stock-based compensation related to the above stock options, which will be recognized over the weighted average remaining vesting period of ~~1.9~~less ~~years~~than one year.

A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is required if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets may not be realized. The Company is in the early stages of development and realization of the deferred tax assets is not considered more likely than not. As a result, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance for the net deferred tax asset. A portion of the valuation allowance relates to Research and Development credit carryovers. There has been no formal Research and Development studies performed related to the amounts calculated for these credits. While management believes the amounts taken as credits are accurate, it is possible a future adjustment would be necessary to reduce the value of the of these credit carryovers.

Since inception of the Company on January 17, 2002, the Company has generated federal, state, and Australian tax net operating losses of approximately $163 million, $140 million, and $105 thousand, respectively. Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, federal net operating losses incurred after December 31, 2017 may be carried forward indefinitely. The tax loss carryforwards of the Company may be subject to limitation by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to the amount utilizable each year. This limitation could reduce the Company’s ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards. Federal net operating losses (“NOLs”) totaling $140.5 million expire in various amounts between 2025 and 2037. Federal NOLS totaling $22.5 million do not expire.F-23

18. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events that have occurred after the balance sheet date and through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued. Based upon the evaluation, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed below.

2025 Financing Note

On January 15, 2025, the Board approved a Financing Term Sheet (the “2025 Term Sheet”), which set forth the terms under which the Company will use its best efforts to arrange for financing of a maximum of $5,000,000 (the “2025 Financing”), which amounts will be obtained in several tranches.

Pursuant to the 2025 Term Sheet, the 2025 Notes (defined below) will convert into shares of the Company’s Series D-1 Preferred Stock twelve months after the issue date of a 2025 Note.

(i) The 2025 Notes will bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan that has been funded to the Company; (ii) In the event there is a change of control of the Board, the term of the 2025 Notes will be accelerated and all amounts due under the 2025 Notes may be immediately due and payable at the 2025 Note Investors’ option; (iii) The outstanding principal amount and interest payable under the 2025 Notes may be convertible at the 2025 Note Investors’ option into shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to $2.862. The Series D-1 Preferred Stock is convertible into ten (10) shares of common stock; and (iv) The outstanding principal amount and interest payable under the 2025 Notes will be automatically convertible into shares of the Company’s Series D-1 Preferred Stock twelve (12) months after the issue date of a 2025 Note.

Convertible Notes Payable

Subsequent to December 31, ~~2024~~2025, the Company entered into 2025 Notes with a related party investor (a director of the Company) in the aggregate principal amount of $~~455~~175,000.

Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Company filed amendments with the State of Delaware extending the automatic conversion date of its Series D and Series D-1 Preferred Stock to December 31, 2028.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures by us are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the period covered by this report based on the criteria for effective internal control described in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on the results of management’s assessment and evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, ~~2024~~2025.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Even assuming the effectiveness of our controls and procedures, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error or all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. In general, our controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that our control system’s objective will be met, and our principal executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls in future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of ~~2024~~2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
