The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited financial information reflects, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The results reported for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Reverse Stock Split
The Company effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, effective as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on April 27, 2023. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every twenty shares of common stock issued and outstanding were automatically reclassified into one share of common stock. The Reverse Stock Split did not reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock of 250,000,000, or change the par value of the common stock. All outstanding options, warrants, restricted stock units and similar securities entitling their holders to receive or purchase shares of common stock were adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, as required by the terms of each security. All share and per share amounts were retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to this reverse stock split, including reclassifying an amount equal to the reduction in par value of the Company’s common stock to additional paid-in capital. See Note 9 for additional information.
Liquidity and Capital
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $12,620 in cash and cash equivalents. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $44,883 and cash used in operating activities was $43,700. The Company had positive working capital of $11,876 as of June 30, 2023. The current and historical operating cash flows, current cash and working capital balances, and forecasted obligations of the Company were considered in connection with management’s evaluation of the Company’s ongoing liquidity.
The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the Company attaining and maintaining profitable operations and/or raising additional capital from equity offerings, debt financings or other capital markets transactions, collaborations, strategic partnerships or licensing arrangements.
The Company has secured and intends to employ various strategies to obtain the required funding for future operations such as accessing capital through the Pre-Paid Advance Agreement with YA II PN, Ltd. (“Yorkville”) or the ELOC Agreement with Lincoln Park Capital, LLC. However, the ability to access the Pre-Paid Advance or the ELOC Agreement in full is dependent on various factors, such as common stock trading volumes, market prices and obtaining stockholder
approval, which cannot be assured, and as a result cannot be included as sources of liquidity for the Company's Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40 Going Concern analysis.
The Company has been working with financial advisors to assist the Company in identifying strategic partners and financing to fund operations and to take actions to maximize our liquidity. If capital is not available to the Company when, and in the amounts needed, the Company could be required to liquidate its inventory, cease or curtail operations, or seek protection under applicable bankruptcy laws or similar state proceedings. The result of the Company's ASC 205-40 analysis, due to uncertainties discussed above, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern through the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company received proceeds in the amount of $2,944 and issued 461,548 shares of common stock to Yorkville. Since June 30, 2023 and through the filing date, the Company issued 315,605 shares of common stock to Yorkville. As of June 30, 2023 and through the date of this filing, the Company has not sold any shares of common stock to Lincoln Park under the ELOC Agreement other than the commitment shares (and is prohibited from accessing the ELOC Agreement while advances are outstanding to Yorkville). These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with GAAP and this basis assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
