CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or Quarterly
Report, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
or Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, which are subject to the safe
harbor created by those sections.
We may, in some cases, use words such as “anticipate,”
“believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,”
“potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” or
the negative of these terms, and similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes to identify these forward-looking
statements. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be forward-looking statements
and are based upon our current expectations, beliefs, estimates and projections, and various assumptions, many of which, by their nature,
are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Quarterly
Report relating to our business, business strategy, products and services we may offer in the future, the timing and results of future
clinical trials, and capital outlook, successful completion of our clinical trials, our ability to raise additional capital, our ability
to maintain our Nasdaq listing, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, approval of our products candidates, our ability to comply
with changing government regulations, patent protection of our proprietary technology, product liability exposure, uncertainty of market
acceptance, competition, technological change, and other risk factors detailed herein and in our other of our filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business,
the economy and other future conditions. Because forward looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties,
risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by
the forward-looking statements. They are neither statement of historical fact nor guarantees or assurance of future performance. We caution
you therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, a decline in general economic conditions nationally
and internationally, the ability to protect our intellectual property rights, competition from other providers and products, risks in
product development, inability to raise capital to fund continuing operations, changes in government regulation, and other factors (including
the risks contained in Item 1A of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading “Risk Factors”) relating to
our industry, our operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by us. Should one or more of these risks
or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those
anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.
Factors or events that could cause our actual
results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them, nor can we assess the impact of
all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially
from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on
these forward-looking statements. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required
by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to and do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements
to actual results.

AETHLON MEDICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
June 30, 2026
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Aethlon Medical, Inc., or Aethlon, the Company,
we or us, is a medical therapeutic company focused on developing the Hemopurifier® (HP), a clinical-stage investigational immunotherapeutic
device designed to address unmet needs in oncology, life-threatening infectious diseases, organ transplantation and other disease states
in which extracellular vesicles (EVs) contribute to disease progression. The Hemopurifier utilizes a proprietary lectin-based technology
to bind and remove enveloped viruses and EVs from biological fluids. EVs have been associated with immune suppression, metastasis, and
resistance to therapy in cancer, as well as progression of severe infectious diseases.
In pre-clinical studies, the Hemopurifier has
also demonstrated the ability to bind disease-associated extracellular vesicles (“EVs”) and a panel of enveloped viruses.
The Hemopurifier has been evaluated in human studies, involving 176 treatment sessions in 45 patients with either viral infections or
cancer. The device has been well tolerated with an adverse event profile that is consistent with extracorporeal therapy. In certain human
studies designed to evaluate viral clearance from biological fluids, findings demonstrated the removal of enveloped viruses. The U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted the Hemopurifier “Breakthrough Device” designation for two independent
indications:
| |
· |
the treatment of individuals with advanced or metastatic cancer unresponsive to or intolerant of standard-of-care therapy; and |
| |
|
|
| |
· |
the treatment of life-threatening viruses not addressed with approved therapies. |
Three clinical sites in Australia—Royal
Adelaide Hospital in Adelaide, Pindara Private Hospital in the Gold Coast, and GenesisCare North Shore Hospital in Sydney—are currently
enrolling patients in our safety, feasibility and dose-finding oncology trial in patients with solid tumors not responding to treatment,
including either Keytruda® or Opdivo®. The trial is designed to enroll approximately 9 to 18 patients across three sequential
dosing cohorts evaluating the safety and feasibility of the Hemopurifier. During the first fiscal quarter of 2027, we initiated Cohort
3 and treated the first participant in this cohort. Enrollment in the trial remains ongoing.
The Company previously pursued approval of a similar
clinical trial in India. After reviewing extended timelines associated with site activation and trial execution, we decided to discontinue
the India program to conserve resources and focus our efforts on the Australian oncology trial.
The Hemopurifier is designed to address life-threatening
viral infections, particularly those involving highly glycosylated viruses for which there are no approved therapies. It has previously
been used under FDA and international regulatory frameworks to treat individuals infected with HIV, hepatitis C, Ebola and SARS-CoV-2.
While our COVID-19 clinical trials in the U.S. and India have been terminated due to low ICU enrollment, these programs provided real-world
evidence of Hemopurifier use in critically ill patients. We maintain an open Investigational Device Exemption (“IDE”) for viral
indications, preserving the ability to respond to future outbreaks or emerging pathogens.
In addition to our ongoing clinical development
programs, we continue to explore potential new applications for the Hemopurifier through internal pre-clinical research and academic collaborations.
During the first fiscal quarter of 2027, our manuscript entitled “Increased Mannosylation of Extracellular Vesicles in Long
COVID Plasma Provides a Potential Therapeutic Target for Galanthus nivalis Agglutinin (GNA) Affinity Resin“ was accepted for
publication in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. The manuscript describes exploratory ex vivo laboratory research conducted
in collaboration with the University of California, San Francisco Long COVID Clinic examining extracellular vesicle characteristics in
plasma samples from individuals with Long COVID. We also continue to investigate the Hemopurifier’s ability to remove disease-relevant
extracellular vesicles through pre-clinical studies, including platelet-derived extracellular vesicles implicated in cancer, autoimmune
disease and neurological disorders. These research activities are intended to inform potential future clinical indications and expand
the potential utility of the Hemopurifier platform.
Successful outcomes of human trials will also
be required by the regulatory agencies of certain foreign countries where we plan to market and sell the Hemopurifier. Some of our patents
may expire before FDA approval or approval in a foreign country, if any, is obtained. However, we believe that certain patent applications
and/or other patents issued to us more recently will help protect the proprietary nature of our Hemopurifier treatment technology.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, there
were no changes to our significant accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March
31, 2026.
Reverse Stock Split
On July 31, 2026, the Company effected a 5-for-1
reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The Company’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted
basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market on August 4, 2026. All share and per share amounts presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all
periods presented.
Basis of Presentation
Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
they should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, included
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on June 10, 2026.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Aethlon Medical, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Aethlon Medical Australia Pty Ltd.
All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, considered necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position as of and for the period ended June 30, 2026,
its results of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended June 30, 2026, and its cash flows for the three months ended
June 30, 2026. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2026 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet
at March 31, 2026, contained in the above referenced 10-K and has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split described
above, including the related adjustments to Common Stock and Additional Paid-in Capital. The results of operations for the three months
ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future interim periods.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed
consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, stock-based compensation,
accrued clinical trial costs, research and development expenses, the useful lives of long-lived assets, and other accrued liabilities.
Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Liquidity and Going Concern
Management believes that the Company’s cash and
cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026, together with the proceeds received from its financing completed in July 2026, will be sufficient
to fund its planned operations for at least twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
Although we believe our current cash resources, together with proceeds
received subsequent to June 30, 2026, are sufficient to fund our planned operations for at least the next twelve months, we will likely
require additional capital in the future to continue advancing the clinical development of the Hemopurifier beyond that period. The timing
and amount of future capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the progress of our clinical and preclinical development
programs, regulatory activities, manufacturing requirements, and other operating expenditures.
Restricted Cash
As of June 30, 2026, we maintained a restricted
cash balance of $99,150 in an interest-bearing money market deposit account with JPMorgan Chase, which supports our lease obligations.
This balance includes a $5,000 buffer above the required security amount.
2. LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net
loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted loss per share is computed
similar to basic loss per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional dilutive common shares that
would have been outstanding if potential common shares had been issued, if such additional common shares were dilutive. Since we had net
losses for all periods presented, basic and diluted loss per share are the same, and additional potential common shares have been excluded,
as their effect would be antidilutive.
As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, an aggregate of
404,724 and 329,886 potential common shares, respectively, consisting of shares underlying outstanding stock options, warrants, and restricted
stock units were excluded, as their inclusion would be antidilutive.
3. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
Our research and development costs are expensed
as incurred and consist of costs associated with clinical trials, preclinical research, personnel, including salaries, payroll taxes and
employee benefits, consulting and professional fees, and other expenditures incurred to support the development of the Hemopurifier. Research
and development expenses are included in various operating expense line items in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of
operations.
Research and development expenses were

4. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In November
2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense
Disaggregation Disclosures (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires public business entities to provide enhanced annual and
interim disclosures that disaggregate specified income statement expense categories. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating
the impact that adoption of this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government
Grants (Topic 832), which establishes guidance related to the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of government
grants. ASU 2025-10 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2029, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance may have on its consolidated
financial statements and disclosures.

11. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company operates as a single operating and reportable segment,
which reflects how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, manages the business
and allocates resources. The Company is a development-stage medical technology company focused on advancing a clinical-stage therapeutic
device. The CODM evaluates operating performance and allocates resources primarily evaluating cash burn and liquidity and operating loss
in relation to the Company’s development milestones and expected future manufacturing and commercialization activities. In assessing
cash runway, the CODM regularly reviews significant operating expense categories to evaluate whether spending is consistent with the Company’s
cash flow projections and to determine whether the timing or level of discretionary expenditures should be adjusted to preserve cash resources
while advancing the Company’s development objectives.
In accordance with ASU 2023-07, the following significant expense categories
and performance measures were regularly reviewed by the CODM for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:
Amounts presented are rounded to the nearest thousand.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management evaluated subsequent events through
the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.
Registered Public Offering
On July 7, 2026, the Company completed a registered best-efforts public
offering consisting of 52,600 shares of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase 1,074,002 shares of common stock, and accompanying
common warrants to purchase up to 1,126,602 shares of common stock. In addition, the Company issued placement agent warrants to purchase
up to 45,064 shares of common stock.
The offering generated gross proceeds of
approximately $4.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. The accompanying common warrants have
an exercise price of $3.55 per share and expire five years from the date of issuance. The pre-funded warrants have an exercise price
of $0.001 per share and remain exercisable until exercised in full. As of the date of this report, holders have exercised 181,002
pre-funded warrants, resulting in the issuance of 181,002 shares of common stock.
Reverse Stock Split
On July 31, 2026, the Company effected a
1-for-5 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The Company's common stock began trading on a
split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market on August 4, 2026. The Company estimates that the reverse stock split resulted in
the issuance of approximately 134 additional shares of common stock due to the rounding up of fractional share interests to whole shares.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion of our financial condition
and results of operations should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the condensed consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Some of the information contained in this discussion
and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business,
includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. For a complete discussion of forward-looking statements, see
the section above entitled “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward Looking Statements.”
Overview
Aethlon Medical, Inc. is a clinical-stage medical therapeutic company
focused on developing the Hemopurifier®, an investigational immunotherapeutic device for the treatment of oncology, life-threatening
viral infections and other disease states where extracellular vesicles are believed to contribute to disease progression.
Our primary focus remains advancing the Phase 1 oncology clinical trial
in Australia. Following the completion of the first two treatment cohorts, preliminary observations demonstrated generally consistent
directional changes across multiple biomarkers associated with tumor-derived extracellular vesicles, immune function and response to immunotherapy.
While these findings remain preliminary and await formal statistical analysis following completion of the study, they support the continued
evaluation of the Hemopurifier in the ongoing trial.
We also treated the first participant in Cohort 3, and enrollment in
the study continues across our three clinical sites in Australia. In addition, our manuscript describing extracellular vesicle characteristics
in patients with Long COVID was accepted for publication in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. To support our ongoing
clinical development activities, we continued to access capital through our At-the-MarketATM offering program.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2026 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 2025
Operating Expenses
Consolidated operating expenses for the three
months ended June 30, 2026 were $1,579,202 compared to $1,792,390 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. This decrease of $213,189,
or 11.9%, primarily reflected lower professional fees and general and administrative expenses.
Professional fees decreased by $142,463 for the
three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower investor relations
expenses resulting from costs incurred in the prior-year period in connection with a special meeting of stockholders that did not recur
in the current-year period, together with lower accounting fees due to fewer filings requiring audit consent procedures by our predecessor
and current independent registered public accounting firms during the current-year period.
General and administrative expenses
decreased by $72,907 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the prior-year period. The decrease primarily reflected
lower clinical trial expenses resulting from the timing of trial participant treatment activities between the current-year and
prior-year periods, as well as lower costs associated with our preclinical research activities. These decreases were partially
offset by normal fluctuations in other general and administrative expenses.
Other Income, Net
We recorded other income of $31,290 for the three
months ended June 30, 2026 compared to other income of $30,532 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Other income in both periods
was primarily interest income.
Net Loss
As a result of the factors noted above, our net
loss decreased to $1,547,912 in the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $1,761,858 in the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Basic and diluted loss attributable to common
stockholders was ($4.05) for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to ($4.24) for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 2026, we had a cash balance of
$4,933,579 and working capital of $4,574,872. This compares to a cash balance of $5,026,458 and working capital of $4,122,702 at March
31, 2026.
We believe that our cash and cash equivalents
as of June 30, 2026, together with the proceeds received from sales of our common stock under our S-1 registration statement ATM program
subsequent to June 30, 2026, will be sufficient to fund our planned operations for at least twelve months from the date these condensed
consolidated financial statements are issued.
Although we believe our current cash resources, together with proceeds
received subsequent to June 30, 2026, are sufficient to fund our planned operations for at least the next twelve months, we will likely
require additional capital in the future to continue advancing the clinical development of the Hemopurifier beyond that period. The timing
and amount of future capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the progress of our clinical and preclinical development
programs, regulatory activities, manufacturing requirements, and other operating expenditures.
Cash Flows
Cash flows from operating, investing and financing
activities, as reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, are summarized as follows:

NET CASH USED IN OPERATING ACTIVITIES. Net cash
used in operating activities was approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $1.7 million
for the same period in 2025. The greater use of cash in operating activities was primarily attributable to unfavorable changes in working
capital, principally a larger reduction in accounts payable and other current liabilities than in the prior-year period. This increase
in cash used was partially offset by a lower net loss, lower cash used for prepaid expenses and other current assets, and the absence
of payments to related parties made during the prior-year period.
NET CASH USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES. Capital
expenditures during the three months ended June 30, 2026 consisted of the purchase and installation of an HVAC system for our laboratory
facility at a cost of approximately $9,000.
NET CASH PROVIDED BY (USED IN) FINANCING ACTIVITIES.
Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash
used in financing activities of approximately $5,000 for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to net proceeds
from sales of common stock under our ATM offering program, partially offset by offering costs associated with those sales, including deferred
offering costs incurred in connection with future equity issuances. Financing activities during the current-year period also included
tax withholding payments related to the net share settlement of restricted stock units.
Material Cash Requirements
We expect to continue to incur expenditures related to our ongoing
Phase 1 oncology clinical trial in Australia, including costs associated with clinical trial activities, manufacturing of Hemopurifier
devices and related research and development activities.
In addition, we maintain leases for our headquarters, laboratory and
manufacturing facilities, all of which expire in March 2027. We are evaluating our future facility requirements, including whether to
renew or modify certain lease arrangements as we continue to assess our operational needs.
Our future capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including
the progress and results of our clinical development programs, the costs of manufacturing Hemopurifier devices, regulatory activities,
the protection of our intellectual property, and our ability to establish strategic collaborations or obtain additional financing.
Although we believe that our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30,
2026, together with the proceeds received from sales of common stock subsequent to quarter end, will be sufficient to fund our planned
operations for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements, we expect to require
additional capital to continue advancing the clinical development of the Hemopurifier beyond that period. Additional financing may be
sought through equity offerings, debt financings, strategic collaborations or other financing arrangements. There can be no assurance
that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of our condensed consolidated
financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Our critical accounting policies and estimates
are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. There have been no material changes to those
critical accounting policies and estimates during the three months ended June 30, 2026.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES
ABOUT MARKET RISK.
As a smaller reporting company, as defined by
Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures”
(as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules
and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer (who is our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosures.
In designing and evaluating
the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated,
can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in
evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. We have carried out an evaluation as of the end of the period
covered by this Quarterly Report under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer,
who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Based on this evaluation,
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures
are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by us in the
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act and are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in
the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There were no changes in our internal control
over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
We are not currently a party to any material
pending legal proceedings. From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary
course of business. Regardless of the outcome, such matters may result in substantial costs, divert management’s attention and
resources, and otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The occurrence of an
unfavorable outcome in any specific period could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for that period or future
periods. We are not presently a party to any pending or threatened legal proceedings.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
Please carefully consider the information set
forth in this Quarterly Report and the risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. The risks described in our Annual Report, as well as other risks and uncertainties, could materially
and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition, which in turn could materially and adversely affect
the trading price of shares of our common stock. The occurrence of any of the risks discussed in such filings, or other events that we
do not currently anticipate or that we currently deem immaterial, could harm our business, prospects, financial condition and results
of operations. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
There have been no material updates or changes
to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report; provided, however, additional risks not currently known or currently material
to us may also harm our business.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
We did not issue or sell any unregistered securities during the three
months ended June 30, 2026.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.
None.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES.
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION.
Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, none
of our directors or officers entered into, modified or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1
trading arrangement,” that were intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1, in each case as defined in
Item 408 of Regulation S-K.
