NOTE 8 - INVESTMENT IN EQUITY SECURITY

 

On the Conversion Date, as a result of the Vaxanix Merger, the Company’s investment in Augmenta was exchanged for common shares of Vaxanix, a private commercial-stage oncology company. Vaxanix has an approved device for late-stage cancer treatment and a deep pipeline of cell and immunotherapy agents in development from preclinical to Phase 3. The Company’s common shares in Vaxanix constitutes a 0.16% ownership in Vaxanix as of the Conversion Date and September 30, 2024. The Company has no obligation to provide any funding to Vaxanix and its maximum exposure to loss is its investment value.

 

The investment in Vaxanix has been accounted for as an investment in a non-marketable equity security in accordance with ASC 321 on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. For equity interests without a readily determinable fair value, an entity may elect to measure these investments at cost minus any impairment. The Company has elected to carry this investment at the value of the Augmenta Shares obtained immediately prior to the Vaxanix Merger. The value of the investment is $1,776,746 as of September 30, 2024.

 

The Company will consider qualitative impairment factors in determining if there are any signs of impairment. If the Company determines there are indicators of impairment, the Company will perform a fair value measurement. Due to the proximity between the Vaxanix Merger and September 30, 2024, the qualitative factors considered for the period ended September 30, 2024, included Vaxanix’s progress and likelihood of obtaining equity financing at a price per share lower than the current value of the Company’s investment. As of September 30, 2024, there are no indicators of impairment.
