NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Description of Business

 

Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. (“Oncotelic” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated in the State of New York in 1988 as OXiGENE, Inc. The Company reincorporated in the State of Delaware in 1992, changed its name to Mateon Therapeutics, Inc. (“Mateon”) in 2016, and subsequently changed its name to Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. in November 2020. The Company conducts business through Oncotelic and its wholly owned subsidiaries, including Oncotelic, Inc., PointR Data, Inc. (“PointR”), Pet2DAO, Inc. (“Pet2DAO”), and EdgePoint AI, Inc. (“EdgePoint”), a consolidated subsidiary with non-controlling interests. (Collectively, “Oncotelic,” “we,” “our,” or “the Company”). Further detail on prior mergers and corporate history is provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 15, 2025.

 

The Company is principally focused on the development of immuno-oncology therapeutics, including OT-101, a transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) inhibitor being advanced for difficult-to-treat cancers and viral respiratory diseases. OT-101 is being developed through our joint venture (“JV”) with Dragon Overseas Capital Limited (“Dragon”) and GMP Biotechnology Limited (“GMP Bio”), affiliates of Golden Mountain Partners (“GMP”).

 

As of September 30, 2025, the Company owns 45% of GMP Bio. During the quarter, GMP Bio completed an independent third-party valuation by Frost & Sullivan (Hong Kong), which preliminarily estimated the potential value of the drug pipeline under development at approximately $1.7 billion. This valuation is non-binding, forward-looking, and based upon a number of assumptions including the successful achievement of clinical, regulatory, and commercial milestones. The valuation should not be interpreted as a current measure of fair value under U.S. GAAP.

 

Oncotelic is in the process of seeking a separate, ASC-compliant valuation performed under U.S. GAAP standards. The results of this valuation, or other events that indicate a change in the value of the Company’s holdings in GMP Bio will be incorporated into future reporting periods consistent with the Company’s fair value reporting under U.S. GAAP.

 

The JV is advancing OT-101 for high-grade gliomas, pancreatic cancer, and other oncology indications, as well as for epidemic and pandemic respiratory diseases. In addition, the JV is developing five additional therapeutic candidates, which—if successfully developed and approved—are anticipated to contribute meaningful long-term value to both the JV and the Company.

 

Separately from the JV, the Company plans to develop OT-101 for select animal-health indications and is evaluating the use of digital assets and blockchain-based technologies to support that platform. The Company has also acquired apomorphine for potential uses in Parkinson’s disease, erectile dysfunction, and female sexual dysfunction. The Company continues to evaluate advancement opportunities for OXi4503 (for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes) and CA4P (in combination with checkpoint inhibitors for metastatic melanoma).

 

The Company’s core scientific focus is the development of its proprietary self-immunization protocol (“SIP™”), designed to stimulate a patient’s immune system to recognize and target tumors without requiring tumor extraction or antigen identification. The SIP™ platform is supported by more than three decades of RNA-based research and is being applied initially to oncology, with potential expansion to Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (“DMD”) and other diseases driven by TGF-β overexpression.

 

The JV continues preparing for planned Phase 2 and Phase 3 trials for OT-101 in high-grade glioma, pancreatic cancer, and other indications. The JV is also sponsoring investigator-initiated clinical studies in additional oncology applications. Under an agreement and supplemental agreement with GMP, the Company received approximately $1.2 million in service fees related to development activities for OT-101. Additional detail regarding these agreements is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

The Company remains committed to advancing its therapeutic pipeline, strengthening the clinical and commercial prospects of GMP Bio, and pursuing programs intended to address significant unmet medical needs in oncology and related therapeutic areas.

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oncotelic, its wholly owned subsidiaries, Oncotelic Inc. and PointR; and Edgepoint our non-controlled interest entity. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s investment in GMB Bio is recorded and reported as a minority investment in equity securities.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the SEC for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2025. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and entities in which the Company has non-controlling interests. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. In the opinion of management, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period presented. Our consolidated operations comprise a single operating segment and reporting unit.

 

 

Liquidity and Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred net accumulated losses of approximately $39.1 million since inception of Oncotelic Inc., as the Company’s historical financial statements before the Merger have been replaced with the historical financial statements of Oncotelic Inc. The Company also has a negative working capital of approximately $18.5 million at September 30, 2025, of which approximately $2.6 million contingent liability of issuance of common shares of the Company to PointR shareholders upon achievement of certain milestones in accordance with the PointR Merger Agreement. The Company has negative cash flows from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 of approximately $0.6 million. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of this filing. Management expects to continue to incur significantly lower direct costs and losses in the foreseeable future, as a majority of the costs related with the development of OT-101 have been, and will be, incurred by the JV, but the Company also recognizes the need to raise capital to remain viable as well as have the ability to develop its own products and achieve some of the plans to enhance shareholder value. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s long-term plans include continued development of its current pipeline of products, in addition to continue the development of OT-101 which is exclusively out-licensed to the JV and the JV will be responsible for the funding required to support the development in entirety, to generate sufficient revenues, through either technology transfer or product sales, or raise additional financing to cover its anticipated expenses. The Company has supported its operations through a combination of debt and equity financing. See Note 3, 5 and 10 below). Until the Company is able to generate sufficient revenues from its current pipeline, the Company plans on funding its operations through the sale of equity and/or the issuance of debt, combined with or without warrants or other equity instruments. The Company obtained short-term loans of approximately $0.45 million from Autotelic Inc., a related party, and net approximately $480,000 from Mast Hill under a secured note during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. In addition, the Company obtained a short-term loan of $10 thousand from Amit Shah, it’s CFO during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

 

Although no assurances can be given as to the Company’s ability to deliver on its revenue plans, or that unforeseen expenses may arise, management believes that the potential equity and debt financing or other potential financing will provide the necessary funding for the Company to continue as a going concern. Also, management cannot guarantee any potential debt or equity financing will be available on favorable terms or at all. As such, management does not believe the Company has sufficient cash for 12 months from the date of this report. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, or at all, the Company will need to curtail operations, or cease operations completely.

The Company is primarily a cancer immunotherapy company dedicated to the development of first in class self-immunization protocol (“SIP™”) candidates for difficult to treat cancers. The Company’s proprietary SIP™ candidates are expected to offer advantages over other immunotherapies because they do not require extraction of the tumor or isolation of the antigens, and they have the potential for broad-spectrum applicability for multiple cancer types. The Company’s proprietary product candidates have shown promising clinical activity in phase 2 trials for the treatment of gliomas and pancreatic cancers. The Company aims to translate its unique insights, which span more than three decades of original work using RNA therapeutics, into the deployment of antisense as a RNA therapeutic for diseases which are caused by TGF-β overexpression, starting with cancer and expanding to Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (“DMD”) and others. OT-101, is being developed as a broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug that can also be used in combination with other standard cancer therapies to establish an effective multi-modality treatment strategy for difficult-to-treat cancers. Further, The JV is also developing 5 additional compounds, which if approved, are anticipated to be significant revenue and value contributors for the JV as well as the Company. The JV plans to initiate phase 2 and 3 clinical trials for OT-101 in both high-grade glioma and pancreatic cancer, and any other indications that may evolve, for human pharmaceutical needs. The JV may also be sponsoring investigator-initiated studies for OT-101 for other oncology indications. The Company is evaluating the further development of its product candidates OXi4503, as a treatment for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes, and CA4P, in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor for the treatment of advanced metastatic melanoma. The JV is also developing OT-101 for the various epidemics and pandemics, similar to the corona virus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. In this connection, the Company entered into an agreement and supplemental agreement with GMP for a total of $1.2 million to render services and was paid for the development of OT-101.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date of this filing. Management expects to incur significantly lower costs and losses in the foreseeable future, as a majority of the costs related with the development of OT-101 will be incurred by the JV, but the Company also recognizes the need to raise capital to remain viable. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s long-term plans include continued development of its current pipeline of products, in addition to continue the development of OT-101 which is exclusively out-licensed to the JV and the JV will be responsible for the funding required to support the development in entirety, to generate sufficient revenues, through either technology transfer or product sales, or raise additional financing to cover its anticipated expenses. Until the Company is able to generate sufficient revenues from its current pipeline, the Company plans on funding its operations through the sale of equity and/or the issuance of debt, combined with or without warrants or other equity instruments. The Company obtained short term loans of approximately $0.6 million from Autotelic Inc., a related party, during the year ended December 31, 2024. In addition, the Company obtained a short-term loan of $41 thousand from Amit Shah, it’s CFO during year ended December 31, 2024.

 

Although no assurances can be given as to the Company’s ability to deliver on its revenue plans, or that unforeseen expenses may arise, management believes that the potential equity and debt financing or other potential financing will provide the necessary funding for the Company to continue as a going concern. Also, management cannot guarantee any potential debt or equity financing will be available on favorable terms or at all. As such, management does not believe the Company has sufficient cash for 12 months from the date of this report. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, or at all, the Company will need to curtail operations, or cease operations completely.
