NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

JUNE 30, 2022 AND 2021

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND LINE OF BUSINESS

 

Organization

NovAccess Global Inc. (“NovAccess,” the “Company”) is a Colorado corporation formerly known as Sun River Mining Inc. and XsunX, Inc. The Company was originally incorporated in Colorado on February 25, 1997. Effective September 24, 2003, the Company completed a plan of reorganization and name change to XsunX, Inc. In June 2020, the Company was acquired and changed its name to NovAccess Global Inc.

 

Line of Business

NovAccess Global Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company that is developing novel immunotherapies to treat brain tumor patients in the United States with plans to expand globally. We specialize in cutting-edge research related to utilizing a patient’s own immune system to attack the cancer. We are filing an Investigational New Drug Application (IND) and working closely with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to obtain approval for human clinical trials to determine safety and efficacy of our drug product for brain cancer patients. Once we have successfully completed the clinical trials and proven that the new therapy is safe and efficacious, we plan to commercialize the product. We also have expertise in successfully executing clinical trials, bringing products to market and increasing the market size of products through our advisory board. Our scientists are well versed in immunology, stem cell biology, neuroscience, molecular biology, imaging, small molecules development, gene therapy and other technical assays needed for protein and genetic analysis of cancer cells.

 

NovAccess operates as a research and development (R&D) company out of Ohio and California, and our executive management and scientific advisory board provide over 15 years of extensive experience in all aspects of biopharmaceutical R&D and commercialization of drug candidates. We guide our performance by striving to deliver consistently on the following core objectives: (1) Accountability — taking responsibility for providing safe and effective options for patients; (2) Integrity — doing what is ethically right for the patient; (3) Excellence — doing your best and working hard; and (4) Teamwork — bringing together a strong working team to deliver the best products for brain tumor patients.

For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021.

 

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company does not generate revenue, and has negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusion. The Company has obtained funds from its shareholders and lenders since its inception through the period ended June 30, 2022. Management believes the existing shareholders and the prospective new investors will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due and will allow the development of its business.

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of NovAccess is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary StemVax, LLC. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions between these entities have been eliminated in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these consolidated financial statements include the estimate of derivative liabilities, the deferred tax valuation allowance, and the fair value of stock options. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and money markets with an original maturity of three months or less.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful lives:

 

Leasehold improvements

Length of the lease

Computer software and equipment

3 Years

Furniture & fixtures

5 Years

Machinery & equipment

5 Years

 

The Company capitalizes property and equipment over $500. Property and equipment under $500 are expensed in the year purchased.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Share-based Payment applies to transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services and also applies to liabilities an entity may incur for goods or services that are to follow a fair value of those equity instruments. We are required to follow a fair value approach using an option-pricing model, such as the Binomial lattice valuation model, at the date of a stock option grant. The deferred compensation calculated under the fair value method would then be amortized over the respective vesting period of the stock option. This has not had a material impact on our results of operations.

 

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share Calculations

Net earnings (Loss) per share dictates the calculation of basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the effect of stock options and stock-based awards plus the assumed conversion of convertible debt (Notes 4 and 5).

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of June 30, 2022, the balances reported for cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

 

We adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820 for financial instruments measured as fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, and established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established 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 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.

 

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company had no assets that are required to be valued on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021. The Company had liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis as follows at June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) 2021-04—Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options, to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public and nonpublic entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2021-04, which had no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

3. CAPITAL STOCK

 

At June 30, 2022, the Company’s authorized stock consisted of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, with no par value. Effective August 25, 2020, we filed articles of amendment to our articles of incorporation with the Colorado Secretary of State to effectuate a 1-for-1,000 reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock.

 

The Company is also authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of the preferred stock are determined by the Board of Directors prior to issuance of such shares.

As of June 30, 2022 the Company had 600 shares of issued and outstanding Series B Preferred Stock following the conversion of 5,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and redemption of 24,400 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Series A shares were originally issued in consideration for the contribution of services by Tom Djokovich, the Company’s former President and Chief Executive Officer,. As the holder of the Series A shares, Mr. Djokovich had the ability to influence and determine stockholder votes. On March 18, 2020, the Company, Mr. Djokovich, and TN3, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company owned by Daniel G. Martin (“TN3”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Djokovich sold his 5,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to TN3 in a private sale for cash. The holder of the Series A Preferred Stock could cast votes equal to not less than 60% of the total outstanding voting power of the Company on all matters voted on by the shareholders of the Company.

Irvin Consulting LLC, a company owned by Dwain Irvin, the CEO of NovAccess, purchased the remaining 600 shares (please refer to Note 12 for more details).

 

Each share of outstanding Series B Preferred Stock entitles the holder to cast 40,000 votes. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder into 10,000 common shares. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be paid out based on an as converted basis. Dividend for Series B Preferred Stock shall be declared on an as converted basis.

The February Note matures on August 15, 2022, unless extended for up to an additional six months. The February Note may be converted, only following an event of default, and therefore is not included in summary of convertibles note, by the lender into shares of common stock of the Company at the lesser of 90% (representing a 10% discount) multiplied by the lowest trading price during the previous twenty (20) trading day period ending on the issuance date, or during the previous twenty (20) trading day period.

On May 5, 2022, the Company issued a 12% secured promissory note (the “May 2022 note”) for the principal sum of $1,000,000 plus accrued interest. The May 2022 Note matures on November 5, 2022, unless extended for up to an additional six months. The May Note may be converted, only following an event of default, and therefore is not included in summary of convertibles note, by the lender into shares of common stock of the Company at the lesser of 90% (representing a 10% discount) multiplied by the lowest trading price during the previous twenty (20) trading day period ending on the issuance date, or during the previous twenty (20) trading day period.

As of June 30, 2022, the balance of the May 2022 Note was $1,000,000.

 

We evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory notes was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The notes have no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the notes under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby there would be a separation into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the notes in their entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically according to the stock price fluctuations based upon the Binomial lattice model calculation.

 

The convertible notes issued and described in this Note 4 above, do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The conversion feature has been characterized as a derivative liability to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

We record the full value of the derivative as a liability at issuance with an offset to valuation discount, which will be amortized over the life of the notes.

 

At June 30, 2022, the fair value of the derivative liability including warrants was $2,553,681.

 

For purpose of determining the fair market value of the derivative liability for the embedded conversion, the Company used Binomial lattice valuation model. The significant assumptions used in the Binomial lattice valuation of the derivatives are as follows:

 

Risk free interest rate

 

Between 0.73%and 2.28%

Stock volatility factor

 

Between 136.0% and 166.0%

5. CONVERTIBLE LOAN PAYABLE

 

As of June 30, 2016, Company issued an unsecured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the amount of $12,000 to a former Board member (the “Holder”) in exchange for retention as a director during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014. The Note can be converted into shares of common stock by the Holder for $4.50 per share. The Note matured on October 1, 2015, and bore a one-time interest charge of $1,200 which was applied to the principal on October 1, 2014. So long as any shares issuable under a conversion are subject to transfer and sale restrictions imposed pursuant to SEC Rule 144 of the Rules promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, the Company shall, upon written request by Holder, file Form S-8, if applicable, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange commission to register the issued.

 

6. WARRANTS

 

On August 20, 2021, for value received in connection with the issuance of the August Note (see note 4 for more details), the Company issued 1,000,000 warrants to the lender with an exercise price of $1.50 per share with a five-year exercise period.

 

On February 16, 2022, for value received in connection with the issuance of the February Note (see note 4 for more details), the Company issued 500,000 warrants to the lender with an exercise price of $1.50 per share with a five-year exercise period.

 

On May 10, 2022, for value received in connection with the issuance of the May Note (see note 4 for more details), the Company issued 1,000,000 warrants to the lender with an exercise price of $0.01 per share with a five-year exercise period.

 

On June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021, the fair value of the derivative liability warrants was $476,182 and $372,643, respectively.

 

For the purpose of determining the fair market value of the derivative liability for the embedded conversion, the Company used the Binomial lattice valuation model. The significant assumptions used in the Binomial lattice valuation of the derivatives are as follows:

 

Risk free interest rate

 

2.42%

Stock volatility factor

 

Between 139% and 166%

Months to Maturity

 

5 years

Expected dividend yield

 

None

 

7. OPTIONS

 

On June 2, 2020, the Company issued 2,000,000 options to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (adjusted for the August 2020 stock split). These options will be exercisable on a cashless basis for a period of ten years from August 25, 2020. The purpose of the options is to compensate our former directors for serving on the board without compensation in fiscal 2019. It is difficult to assess the value of the options given the highly limited trading in our common stock, the fact that the options shares have not been and are not expected to be registered for resale and will be restricted, and the speculative nature of the Company’s future business plans. However, we estimated the value of the services provided by each of our directors during 2019 and believe that the value of the options to be issued to each of our former directors approximates that amount.

Related Parties

 

In December 2021, the Company’s CEO and CFO each advanced funds to the Company for operating expenses in the total amount of $50,000. The notes were payable on demand with a five business day written notice and bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum. The Company could prepay all or any part of the balance owed without penalty. In the event of the default, the notes were to bear additional interest at a rate of 12% per annum.

 

On January 25, 2022, the Company issued 125,000 shares of its common stock in settlement of a bridge loan to the Company’s CFO and recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $17,313. Any potential gain would not have been recognized on extinguishment of this loan due to the nature of the relationship between the parties. The Company recognized and paid interest expense in the amount of $237 to our CFO during the period ended June 30, 2022. No balance is due to our CFO as of June 30, 2022.

 

In March, 2022, our CEO purchased 600 shares of Series B Preferred stock and the Company applied $18,616 of the loan balance against this purchase. The remaining balance of $6,384 was paid to our CEO in several payments with the final balance being paid in May, 2022. The company recognized and paid interest expense in the amount of $583 to our CEO during the six months ended June 30, 2022. No balance is due to our CEO as of June 30, 2022.

 

Service Provider

 

In December 2021, one of the Company’s service providers advanced funds to the Company for operating expenses in the total amount of $25,000. On February 14, 2022, the Company issued 125,000 shares of its common stock to the service provider in settlement of the note payable. The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $37,500. During the period ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized and paid interest expense of $226 in relation to this loan.

12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

On September 4, 2020, the Company entered into a management services agreement (the “Agreement”) with TN3, LLC. Pursuant to the Agreement, TN3 was to provide NovAccess with office space in Chesterland, Ohio and management, administrative, marketing, bookkeeping and IT services for a fee of $30,000 a month. The initial term of the Agreement was three years, with subsequent one-year renewals. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company entered into a transaction with TN3 to redeem its shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible preferred stock (please refer to more details below). This transaction terminated the Agreement, including satisfaction for all services provided and any amounts outstanding. As of June 30, 2022 there was zero balance reported as the outstanding payable amount in relation to the Agreement.

 

On January 31, 2022, the Company entered into a preferred stock redemption agreement (the “redemption agreement”) with Daniel G. Martin, at the time our sole board member and chairman, TN3, LLC, a company owned by Mr. Martin, Dwain K. Morris-Irvin, our chief executive officer, and Irvin Consulting, LLC, a company owned by Dr. Irvin. TN3 owned 25,000 shares of our Series B convertible preferred stock. Pursuant to the redemption agreement, on March 14, 2022, NovAccess redeemed 24,400 of the preferred shares and Irvin Consulting purchased 600 of the preferred shares from TN3. In connection with the redemption, we issued to TN3 1,502,670 shares of unregistered common stock. To redeem the preferred shares, the Company is to pay TN3 a total of $250,000 over a period of ten months, with payment accelerated if the company raises significant capital. The Company paid $75,000 to TN3 in relation to this transaction during the three months ended June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022 the balance owed to TN3 on this transaction is $125,000.

 

Upon completion of the redemption, Mr. Martin resigned from the NovAccess board of directors and was replaced by Dr. Irvin and John Cassarini. On March 18, 2022, the board of directors of NovAccess voted to expand the size of the Company’s board to three members and appointed Jason M. Anderson to the board to fill the resulting vacancy.

 

On October 4, 2021, the Company issued 10,000 shares of common stock to Neil J. Laird to compensate him for serving as our chief financial officer. The stock-based compensation expense in the amount of $8,000 was reported on the Company’s financial statements for the nine months ended June 30, 2022.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Management has evaluated subsequent events as of August 15, 2022, the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued according to the requirements of ASC topic 855.

 

On July 28, 2022, NovAccess Global Inc. entered into an interest-free loan agreement with Jason M. Anderson, an independent member of our board of directors. Reflecting his faith in NovAccess and our management team, Mr. Anderson loaned the company $12,500 on July 29 and agreed to consider an additional loan of $12,500 at the end of August if we request it. The loan does not bear interest (except on default) and is due on the earlier of October 31, 2022, or our receipt of debt or equity financing of at least $3.0 million. We will use the proceeds of the loan for general working capital purposes.

 

Also on July 28, 2022, we issued a convertible promissory note to Letzhangout, LLC, a company that provides accounting consulting services to NovAccess and also employs our chief financial officer, Neil J. Laird. Pursuant to the note, Letzhangout loaned the company $12,500 on July 29 and agreed to make an additional loan of $12,500 at the end of August if we request it. Amounts loaned under the note bear interest at 12% a year and are due on the earlier of October 31, 2022, or our receipt of debt or equity financing of at least $3.0 million. Until the note is paid in full, Letzhangout has the right to convert all or a portion of the amount outstanding under the note into unregistered shares of our common stock at $0.15 a share, subject to adjustment for stock splits or similar transactions. We will use the proceeds of the loan for general working capital purposes.

 

On August 8, 2022, NovAccess Global Inc. issued a convertible promissory note to Nyla Sakakura-Clark. Pursuant to the note, Ms. Sakakura-Clark loaned the company $100,000. The loan bears interest at 12% a year and is due on August 8, 2023. However, if we obtain debt or equity financing of at least $3.0 million, then Ms. Sakakura-Clark may demand payment earlier. Until the note is paid in full, Ms. Sakakura-Clark has the right to convert all or a portion of the amount outstanding under the note into unregistered shares of our common stock at $0.15 a share, subject to adjustment for stock splits or similar transactions. We will use the proceeds of the loan for general working capital purposes.

 

 

 

 

 

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under Risk Factors in our Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 23, 2022, as amended.

 

We undertake no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this report. Readers should carefully review the factors described in other documents that NovAccess files from time to time with the SEC.

 

The Company

 

NovAccess Global Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) is a biopharmaceutical company that is developing novel immunotherapies to treat glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most frequent and lethal type of adult brain tumor. StemVax Glioblast (SVX-GB) is a cutting-edge immunotherapy that utilizes a patient’s own immune system to attack cancer cells. We are currently in the research and development phase and are filing an Investigational New Drug Application and working closely with Food and Drug Administration to obtain approval for human clinical trials to determine the safety and efficacy of SVX-GB for brain cancer patients. Once we have successfully completed the clinical trials and proven that the new therapy is safe and efficacious, we plan to commercialize the product.

 

Recent Events

 

Effective August 1, 2022, the trading of the Company’s common stock was upgraded to the OTC Markets Group’s OTCQB® platform from the OTC Pink Market. Our shares will continue to trade under the symbol “XSNX.” Companies traded on the OTCQB must have independent board members, meet minimum trading and shareholders requirements, and make information about the company available regularly on an ongoing basis.

 

In July 2022, we filed an application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for orphan drug designation (“ODD”) for TLR-AD1, a vaccine immunotherapy for the treatment of GBM and other high-grade gliomas. Receiving ODD status would represent a milestone in the development of TLR-AD1 and provide us with multiple incentives, including seven-year marketing exclusivity and federal tax credits, among others benefits.

 

In June 2022, we filed with the SEC a Form S-1 registering 7.5 million of our common shares held by Innovest Global, Inc., a publicly-traded diversified industrials company and significant shareholder of NovAccess. Innovest has agreed to distribute its NovAcess common stock to Innovest’s shareholders once the registration is complete, expanding our shareholder base and public float. The S-1 also registers for resale shares held by or issuable to two of our lenders. We expect the registration statement to be declared effective in our fourth quarter.

 

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022, Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

 

Revenue and Cost of Sales:

 

The Company generated no revenue or cost of goods sold in its third quarters ended June 30, 2022, and 2021.

 

Research and development expenses

 

In the third quarter of 2022, the Company incurred $51,137 in research and development expenses related to activities performed by Dr. Christopher Wheeler and Dr. Dwain K. Morris-Irvin related to preparing the application to obtain FDA approval to start human clinical trials for StemVax Glioblast (SVX-GB) compared to $8,846 incurred in the third quarter of 2021.

 

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by $218,869 during the third quarter of 2022 to $273,777 as compared to $492,646 for the third quarter of 2021. The decrease in SG&A was primarily due to a decrease in investor relations expenses of approximately $175,000 due to change in providers and timing of investor relations services and a decrease in management services of $90,000 as a result of the termination of the agreement with TN3 in March 2022. The aforesaid decrease was partially offset by an increase in insurance costs and increases in accounting services and legal expenses associated with our OTCQB uplist and SEC S1 filing. as compared to the third quarter of 2021.

 

Other Income/(Expenses):

 

Other net income increased by $1,635,578 to $39,808 for the third quarter of 2022 from other expense of $1,595,770 for the third quarter of 2021. The increase in net total other income was primarily due to recognition of a $1,999,424 higher income on net change in fair market value of the derivative instruments in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the loss recognized in the third quarter of 2021, as well as recognition of gain on extinguishment of derivative liability amounting to $181,511. The aforesaid increase in income was offset by an increase in expense on account of amortization of debt discount and commitments fees amounting to $497,334 and increase in interest income of $48,023 during the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the third quarter of 2021.

 

Net Loss:

 

For the third quarter of 2022, our net loss was $285,106 as compared to a net loss of $2,097,262 for the third quarter of 2021. The decrease in our net loss of $1,812,156 was due to an increase in net other income associated with the net change in derivative instruments estimated each period and increase in interest expense and other financing costs, as well as a decrease in operating expenses discussed above.

 

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2022, Compared to the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2021

 

Revenue and Cost of Sales:

 

The Company generated no revenue or cost of goods sold for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021.

 

Research and development expenses

 

In the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred $139,052 in research and development expenses related to activities performed by Dr. Christopher Wheeler and Dr. Dwain K. Morris-Irvin related to preparing the application to obtain FDA approval to start human clinical trials for StemVax Glioblast (SVX-GB) compared to $17,692 recognized in the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by $1,229,875 during the nine months ended June 30, 2022, to $935,135 as compared to $2,165,010 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in SG&A expenses was related primarily to the Company recognizing $936,000 in stock compensation expense in connection with the issuance of stock to our CEO and former CFO in fiscal 2021. Payroll expenses also decreased by approximately $170,000 in 2022 due to a $50,000 bonus accrual for our CEO in fiscal 2021, outsourcing CFO services and allocating a portion of our CEO compensation to research and development expenses in fiscal 2022. The professional fees and outside services decreased by approximately $265,000 as a result of the termination of the management services agreement with TN3  and due to the change in providers and timing of investors relations services. These reductions were partially offset by increases in outsourced accounting services and legal expenses.

 

Other Income/(Expenses):

 

Net other expense increased by $155,360 from other expense of $428,652 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, to other expenses of $585,012 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in other income was primarily due to recognition of a $785,958 higher gain on net change in fair market value of the derivative instruments in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the gain recognized in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, as well as recognition of gain on extinguishment of derivative of $277,715, partially offset by extinguishment of debt amounting to $ 54,813. The aforesaid increase was offset by increase in interest expense by $116,107 and increase in expense on account of amortization of debt discount and commitment fees by $1,071,764 during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 compared to nine months ended June 30, 2021.

 

 

Net Loss:

 

For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, our net loss was $1,658,199 as compared to a net loss of $2,611,354 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in net loss of $953,155 was due to a decrease in net other income associated with the net change in derivative instruments estimated each period and decrease in SG&A expenses partially offset by increase in interest expense and other financing costs.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had a working capital deficit as of June 30, 2022 of $4,437,244, compared to a working capital deficit of $3,762,214 as of September 30, 2021. The increase of $675,030 in working capital deficit is primarily due increase in convertible note payable amounting to $432,226, increase in accounts payable of $81,796, increase in deferred compensation of $106,500, increase in derivative liability on convertible notes amounting to $103,241, and TN3 for the Series B Preferred Stock redemption amounting to $125,000, partially offset by decrease in accrued expenses and interest payable by $265,016. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, our cash flow used in operating activities was $705,954, compared to cash flow used in operating activities of $417,756 for the first nine months of 2021. The net increase of $287,652 in cash flow used in operating activities was primarily due to lower stock compensation expense, higher net loss and changes in assets and liabilities, partially offset by lower gain on change in derivative liabilities.

 

There was no cash flow provided by/ (used in) investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, or 2021.

 

Cash flow provided by financing activities was $615,223 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $419,172 during the first nine months of 2021. The increase in cash flow provided by financing activities was primarily the result of the mix of funds raised by selling equity and debt instruments.

 

The Company will need to raise additional funds to finance its ongoing operations, complete its Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA and to make payments under its loan agreements. We expect this will require approximately $3.0 million through December 31, 2022. We plan to raise this capital through the issuance of additional common stock as well as obtaining additional debt as needed.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities that would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance-sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As a result, we are not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Because NovAccess is a “smaller reporting company” as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) we are not required to provide quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management team, with the participation of our chief executive officer, Dwain K. Morris-Irvin, and chief financial officer, Neil J. Laird, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of NovAccess’ disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under the Securities Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2022. Based upon this evaluation, Messrs. Morris-Irvin and Laird concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our senior management team is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, defined under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our board, senior management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We continue to review our internal control over financial reporting and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business.

 

During the quarter the Company implemented enhanced review procedures for the accounting of certain derivatives and other income. This included engaging a third party to review the assumptions and calculation. There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by the Securities Exchange Act that occurred during our third fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
