AI 繁中摘要
eXoZymes Inc.(EXOZ)提交咗2026財年第一財季(截至2026年3月31日)嘅10-Q季度報告,顯示公司仍然處於pre-revenue階段,未有營運收入💰。

財務狀況:截至3月底,現金及現金等價物僅144.5萬美元,較2025年底嘅303.9萬美元大減52.5%😟。營運活動現金流出152.4萬美元(去年同期113.4萬美元)。總資產由597萬降至402萬美元,股東權益亦縮水55%至152.8萬美元。管理層明確指出,由於公司未有收入、資金短缺,存在持續經營重大疑慮⚠️。

Organization and Description of Business eXoZymes Inc., formerly known as Invizyne Technologies Inc., was formed in Nevada in 2019 and its wholly owned subsidiary eXoZymes (CA) Inc., formerly known as Invizyne Technologies Inc., was formed in California in 2014, together (“eXoZymes”) eXoZymes was formed with the vision of taking nature’s building blocks to make molecules of interest, effectively simplifying nature. eXoZymes’ technology is a differentiated and unique synthetic biology platform which would enable the scalable exploration of large number of molecules and properties found in nature. eXoZymes was a majority owned technology development subsidiary of MDB Capital Holdings, LLC (“MDB”) until the November 2024 initial public offering, when the holdings by MDB were diluted to a current 46.4% minority interest as of March 31, 2026. On May 5, 2025, the Company established a wholly owned subsidiary NCTx LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company. NCTx LLC is a special purpose subsidiary company focused on the development and production of N-trans-caffeoyltyramine - a very rare, plant-derived compound with emerging relevance in the areas of metabolic health, gut integrity, and liver function. The entity has had no business activities to date. Going Concern These condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred net losses of $2,370,247 and $1,856,421 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and used cash for operations of $(1,524,441) and $(1,133,533) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Although the Company believes it has sufficient working capital for the near term, management believes that there remains substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern due to anticipated funding shortfalls and the Company’s pre-revenue status. The Company’s ability to meet its long-term liabilities and obligations depends on securing additional financial support, whether through continued shareholder funding, raising equity or debt financing, or ultimately achieving profitable operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2026, and its results of operations, cash flows, and changes in stockholders’ equity for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2026. These condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements and other information presented in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Some of those judgments can be subjective and complex, and therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include those related to assumptions used in the calculation of right-of-use asset and lease liabilities, accruals for potential liabilities, accounting for research grants and stock-based compensation. 7 Recent Accounting Pronouncements ASU 2024-03 In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE) (ASU 2024-03), which requires disclosure of certain categories of expenses such as the purchase of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization that are components of existing expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2024-03 should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on our disclosures. Emerging Growth Company The Company is an “emerging growth company,” or “EGC” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such choice to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected to opt out of the extended transition periods. Concentration of Risk The Department of Energy has contributed 83.2% and the NIH has contributed 16.8% of all grant reimbursements for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on government grant funding, based on the nature of eXoZymes’ grant receivables. Revenue Recognition The Company primarily generated revenues from its strategic alliances. The strategic alliances with strategic collaborators typically contain multiple elements, including research and other licenses, research and development services, obligations to develop and manufacture pre-commercial and commercial material, and options to obtain additional research and development services. Such arrangements provide for various types of payments to us, including upfront fees, and funding of research and development services. Such payments are often not commensurate with the timing of revenue recognition and therefore result in deferral of revenue recognition. 8 The Company analyzes the collaboration arrangements to assess whether they are within the scope of ASC Topic 808, Collaborative Arrangements (ASC 808) to determine whether such arrangements involve joint operating activities performed by parties that are both active participants in the activities and exposed to significant risks and rewards that are dependent on the commercial success of such activities. To the extent the arrangement is within the scope of ASC 808, the Company assesses whether aspects of the arrangement between the Company and the collaboration partner are within the scope of other accounting literature. If the Company concludes that some or all aspects of the arrangement represent a transaction with a customer, the Company accounts for those aspects of the arrangement within the scope of ASC 606. If the Company concludes that some or all aspects of the arrangement are within the scope of ASC 808 and do not represent a transaction with a customer, the Company recognizes its allocation of the shared costs incurred with respect to the jointly conducted activities as a component of the related expense in the period incurred. Pursuant to ASC 606, a customer is a party that has contracted with an entity to obtain goods or services that are an output of the entity’s ordinary activities in exchange for consideration. Under ASC 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with the customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. ASC 606 requires significant judgment and estimates and results in changes to, but not limited to: (i) the determination of the transaction price, including estimates of variable consideration, (ii) the allocation of the transaction price, including the determination of estimated selling price, and (iii) the pattern of recognition, including the application of proportional performance as a measure of progress on service-related promises and application of point-in-time recognition for supply-related promises. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities or remaining maturities upon purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s policy is to maintain its cash balances with financial institutions with high credit ratings and in accounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and/or by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (the “SIPC”). The Company may periodically have cash balances in financial institutions in excess of the FDIC and SIPC insurance limits of $250,000 and $500,000, respectively. The Company periodically reviews the financial condition of the financial institutions and assesses the credit risk of such investments. The Company did not experience any credit risk losses during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The Company periodically reviews the financial condition of the financial institutions and assesses the credit risk of such investments. The Company may periodically have cash balances in financial institutions more than the FDIC insurance limits of $250,000. On March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $823,448 of cash and unrestricted cash in financial institutions exceeding FDIC insured limits. The Company did not experience any credit risk losses during the three months ended March 31, 2026, and the year ended December 31, 2025. 9 Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include: ● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets; ● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and ● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following tables set forth the fair value of the Company’s consolidated financial instruments that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025: Schedule of Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on Recurring Basis Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total March 31, 2026 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Cash and cash equivalents 1,271,430 - - 1,271,430 Total fair value 1,271,430 - - 1,271,430 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total December 31, 2025 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Cash and cash equivalents 2,917,721 - - 2,917,721 Total fair value 2,917,721 - - 2,917,721 The fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and due to related party are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Major improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses from disposition of property and equipment are included in the statement of operations when realized. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Schedule of Property and Equipment Estimated Useful Lives Laboratory equipment 5 years Furniture and fixtures 7 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of the lease duration or the life of the improvements Property and equipment consist of the following as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively: Schedule of Property and Equipment March 31, 2026 December 31, 2025 Laboratory equipment $1,455,543 $1,397,939 Furniture and fixtures 54,338 54,338 Leasehold improvements 328,786 328,786 Total property and equipment 1,838,667 1,781,063 Less: Accumulated depreciation (1,090,809) (1,016,662) Property and equipment, net $747,858 $764,401 10 Research Grants eXoZymes receives grant reimbursements from the Federal government, which are offset against research and development expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. In addition to actual reimbursements, eXoZymes also receives indirect expense grants (which are not reimbursement-based) and fees (typically of minor significance). It is important to note that there may be instances where the grants received for indirect costs exceed the actual costs, resulting in a negative impact. For capitalized assets, grant reimbursements are recognized over the useful life of the assets. Any portion of the grant not yet recognized is recorded as deferred grant reimbursements and included as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet. Grants that operate on a reimbursement basis are recognized on the accrual basis and are offsets to expenses to the extent of disbursements and commitments that are reimbursable for allowable expenses incurred as of the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, and respectively, expected to be received from funding sources in the subsequent year. Management considers such receivables on March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively, to be fully collectable due to the historical experience with the Federal Government of the United States of America. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses on the grants receivable was recorded in the accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements. Summary of grants receivable activity for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, is presented below: Schedule of Grants Receivable Activity 2026 2025 Three Months ended March 31, 2026 2025 Balance at beginning of period $517,359 $737,282 Grant costs expensed 337,196 571,822 Grant fees 3,724 3,959 Grant funds received (555,416) (717,903) Balance at end of period $302,863 $595,160 eXoZymes has received three grants provided by the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Defense and the National Institutes of Health through June 30, 2028. The first grant was awarded on May 15, 2024, and the latest of these grants was set to expire on June 30, 2028, however grants can be extended, or new phases can be granted, extending the expiration of the grant. None of the grants has commitments made by the parties, provisions for recapture, or any other contingencies, beyond complying with the terms of each research and development grant. Research grants received from organizations are subject to the contract agreement as to how eXoZymes conducts its research activities, and eXoZymes is required to comply with the agreement terms relating to those grants. Amounts received under research grants are nonrefundable, regardless of the success of the underlying research project, to the extent that such amounts are expended in accordance with the approved grant project. eXoZymes is permitted to draw down the research grants after incurring the related expenses. On July 1, 2025, the Company was awarded a key industrial partnership, with a $3 million share of a $9.2 million grant. U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) funded the project under the CFIRE program aimed at transforming the scalability and accessibility of cell-free systems to expand real-world applications. The grant is led by Georgia Tech with a coalition of top academic and industry groups. Amounts received under research grants are offset against the related research and development costs in the consolidated statements of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively, grants amounting to $337,196 and $571,822 were offset against the research and development costs. Grant drawdowns, which includes grants costs expensed, grants for equipment purchased, and grant fees, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively, totaled $340,920 and $575,781. Research and Development Costs Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs consist primarily of compensation costs, fees paid to consultants, and other expenses relating to the development of eXoZymes’s technology. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, research and development costs prior to offset of the grants amounted to $1,461,928 and $1,150,797 respectively, which includes grant costs expensed, grants fees, and research and development costs, net of the grant received. 11 Patent and Licensing Legal and Filing Fees and Costs Due to the significant uncertainty associated with the successful development of one or more commercially viable products based on the research efforts and related patent applications, all patent and licensing legal and filing fees and costs related to the development and protection of its intellectual property are charged to operations as incurred. Patent and licensing legal and filing fees and costs were $65,027 and $82,248 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively. Patent and licensing legal and filing fees and costs are included in general and administrative costs in the consolidated statements of operations. Related Party and Due to Affiliates Expenses The Company had outstanding payables to MDB Capital Holdings, LLC of $13,406 and $5,330 as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively. These payables are non-interest bearing and will be settled in accordance with standard payment terms. Segment Reporting We manage and operate the business as a single reportable operating segment, with the Company’s sole focus on the research and commercialization of exozyme biosolutions. Our business is led by our chief executive officer, who is our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The Company is required to apply the guidance in ASC 280 and identify significant segment expenses and other segment items for its single reportable segment. Because the CODM receives detailed financial reports at a lower level than is included on the Company’s consolidated income statement, the Company identifies which of those expenses qualify as significant segment expenses. The CODM manages the business on a consolidated basis and uses consolidated net income as reported on its income statement to allocate resources and assess performance. In accordance with ASC 280, eXoZymes concludes that consolidated net income is the measure of segment profit or loss that is required to be reported because it is the measure determined in accordance with measurement principles most consistent with GAAP. We do not prepare discrete financial information with respect to separate products. Accordingly, we view our business as one reportable operating segment. 3. Equity Equity In April 2022, pursuant to an equity subscription agreement the Company sold a total of 2,052,931 shares of eXoZymes’s Common Stock for $5,000,000 at $2.44 per share. In connection with the equity subscription agreement, the Company issued warrants (“Funding Warrants”) to purchase 205,293 shares of eXoZymes Common Stock. Through March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively, 205,293 and 205,293 of Funding Warrants have vested. Total value of the warrants as March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, was $320,790. 12 In November 2024, the Company completed a private placement (“Concurrent Private Offering”) concurrently with the IPO, the Company sold to accredited investors an aggregate of 93,750 warrants to purchase up to 93,750 shares of Common Stock (the “Private Warrants”). The Private Warrants were sold at a purchase price of $0.125. The Private Warrants have an exercise price of $8.00 per share, are exercisable beginning six months after issuance, and expire five years from the date of issuance. The Private Warrants have a cashless exercise provision and registration rights for the underlying shares of Common Stock. The gross proceeds from the Concurrent Private Offering were approximately $11,719, and if the Private Warrants are fully exercised, for cash, the Company will receive up to $750,000. In November 2024, the Company issued warrants to underwriters in connection with the IPO. The Company issued 52,485 warrants with an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The warrants are exercisable, beginning six months after issuance, and expire five years from the date of issuance. The underwriter warrants have a cashless exercise provision and registration rights for the underlying shares of Common Stock. The warrants outstanding, issued, exercised, and expired, along with their respective exercise prices and expiration dates, as of December 31, 2025, and for the three months ended March 31, 2026, are presented below: Schedule of Warrant Outstanding Issued Exercised and Expired Description Number of Warrants Exercise Price Expiration Date Balance at 12/31/2025 351,528 4.75 Various (2029) Issued - - Exercised - - Expired - - Balance at 3/31/2026 351,528 $4.75 (weighted avg) Various (2029) 4. Stock-Based Compensation eXoZymes’ 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”), which was approved by the eXoZymes shareholders, permits grants to its officers, directors, and employees for up to 938,832 shares of eXoZymes’ Common Stock. On May 1, 2023, the board and shareholders approved an increase of 1,558,175 shares under the plan. The 2020 Plan authorizes the issuance of stock options, shares of restricted stock, and restricted stock units, among other forms of equity-based awards. On July 25, 2025, the Company’s shareholders approved, by a majority, the “2025 equity incentive plan”. The new plan allows for an additional 1,250,000 shares to be added to the equity incentive pool. 13 The Company measures the fair value of stock option awards using the Black-Scholes model, which requires the use of certain subjective assumptions, including expected term, expected volatility, and risk-free interest rate. These inputs are based on historical data and market conditions at the time of grant. The assumptions used for stock option grants during the periods presented are summarized in the table below: Schedule of Stock Option Grants Grant Date Shares Granted Exercise Price ($) Vesting Term Expected Life (Years) Risk-Free Rate Expected Volatility 07/01/25 235,817 12.40 4 years 4 3.99% 88.47% 07/30/25 20,000 9.48 12 months 1 3.87% 88.08% 10/30/25 40,000 12.65 4 years 4 3.71% 87.12% 01/14/26 146,437 9.49 4 years 4 3.72% 83.40% Note: Contractual term (7 years), dividend yield ($0), and valuation methodology were identical for all grants and therefore are not included in the table. On November 15, 2025, an option holder exercised 15,000 vested stock options through a cashless exercise at an exercise price of $3.31 per share. A total of 3,439 shares were withheld to cover the exercise consideration, resulting in the issuance of 11,561 shares. No unvested options remained following this transaction. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, option holders exercised a total of 89,742 vested stock options through cashless exercises. Of this amount, 81,951 options were exercised at an exercise price of $3.31 per share, and 7,791 options were exercised at an exercise price of $2.44 per share. In connection with these exercises, a total of 27,433 shares were withheld to cover the exercise consideration, resulting in the issuance of 62,309 shares. All options exercised during the period were fully vested, and no unvested options remained following these transactions. As of March 31, 2026, stock options to purchase 971,797 shares of Common Stock were vested, the weighted average exercise price is $5.93, the aggregate intrinsic value is $2,351,078 and the
