Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. accounting principles generally accepted (“GAAP”).
In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
The Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and expects to continue to incur losses and negative cash flows for the foreseeable future. As a result, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $36.7 million at December 31, 2022. Our cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2022 were approximately $11.4 million, representing 93% of our total assets. Based on our current expected level of operating expenditures, the Company believes its cash on hand at December 31, 2022, is sufficient to fund the Company’s ongoing operations for a period of a least twelve (12) months subsequent to the issuance of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Thereafter, the Company may need to raise further capital through the sale of additional equity or debt securities or other debt instruments, strategic relationships or grants, or other arrangements to support its future operations. If such funding is not available or not available on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company’s current development plan may be curtailed.

The impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations and financial performance will depend on numerous factors, including but not limited to the duration and spread of the virus and the impact on the Company’s customers, employees, clinical trial sites, and vendors.
