AIM ImmunoTech (NYSE: AIM) returns to positive equity after new financings
AIM ImmunoTech Inc., an immuno‑pharma company developing Ampligen and Alferon, reported very limited Q2 2026 revenue of $26 thousand and an operating loss of $3.5 million, compared with a $2.6 million operating loss a year earlier. Net loss for the quarter was $3.8 million, and $6.8 million for the first half of 2026.
Cash and cash equivalents increased to $9.9 million at June 30, 2026 from $3.0 million at December 31, 2025, driven by $14.4 million of net cash provided by equity offerings and warrant exercises in the first six months. Total assets were $12.7 million, with stockholders’ equity improving to $7.7 million from a $9.8 million deficit.
Management states that recurring losses and operating cash outflows of $7.3 million for the first half raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year. AIM continues to advance Ampligen, including a fully enrolled Phase 2 DURIPANC trial in metastatic pancreatic cancer and preparatory work for a potential Phase 3 study.
Positive
- Stockholders’ equity improved to $7.7 million at June 30, 2026 from a $9.8 million deficit at December 31, 2025, aided by warrant reclassification and equity financings, which also helped AIM regain compliance with the NYSE American $6.0 million stockholders’ equity listing requirement.
Negative
- Going concern risk: management reports that continuing losses and operating cash outflows of $7.3 million for the first half of 2026 raise substantial doubt about AIM’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year after the statements are issued.
Filing Explained
As of June 30, completed financings had expanded common shares to 28.99 million, while preferred stock and warrants still permit additional shares.
The 10-Q records completed equity financings and warrant exercises through June 30, 2026. They raised cash and restored stockholders’ equity, but also issued common shares and securities that can produce additional shares, reducing existing holders’ percentage ownership if exercised or converted.

AIM IMMUNOTECH INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1: Business and Basis of Presentation
AIM ImmunoTech Inc. and its subsidiaries are an immuno-pharma company headquartered in Ocala, Florida, with a strong foundation of laboratory, pre-clinical and clinical data with respect to the development of nucleic acids and natural interferon to enhance the natural antiviral defense system of the human body. AIM’s products are Ampligen (rintatolimod) and Alferon N Injection (Interferon alfa). Ampligen is a double-stranded RNA (“dsRNA”) molecule being developed for the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer, in addition to other globally important cancers, viral diseases and disorders of the immune system. Ampligen has not been approved by the FDA or marketed in the United States, but it is approved for commercial sale in the Argentine Republic for the treatment of severe Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (“CFS”).
The Company’s research and development of Ampligen includes a variety of diseases and health matters:
| ● | Conducting clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ampligen for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. | |
| ● | Evaluating Ampligen across multiple cancers as a potential therapy that modifies the tumor microenvironment with the goal of increasing anti-tumor responses to checkpoint inhibitors. | |
| ● | Exploring Ampligen’s antiviral activities and potential use as a prophylactic or treatment for existing viruses, new viruses and mutated viruses thereof. | |
| ● | Evaluating Ampligen as a treatment for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (“ME/CFS”) and fatigue and/or the Post-COVID condition of fatigue. | |
| ● | Evaluating Ampligen as a vaccine adjuvant in the combination of Ampligen and AstraZeneca’s FluMist as an intranasal vaccine for influenza, including avian influenza. |
Ampligen is a wide-spectrum therapeutic that has shown positive safety and efficacy in clinical trials of several different solid tumor types. Based specifically on clinical success as to safety and efficacy in our pancreatic cancer Early Access Program and an ongoing Phase 2 trial, AIM has made the business decision to focus its efforts on the development of Ampligen for the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer, as we believe that this path will potentially lead to the most lucrative outcome. Pancreatic cancer is expected to kill an estimated 100,000 people in the American and European Union markets — and more than 450,000 people worldwide in 2026. When AIM looks at the global health problem of pancreatic cancer, we see a large market for an unmet medical need and with relatively little clinical competition. We believe we are well positioned to serve this market with our intellectual property program which includes broad-combination therapy patents in the United States, Japan and Europe, as well as market exclusivity provided by orphan drug designations in the United States and the European Union.
Oncology is an area of biotech which can generate multibillion-dollar mergers and acquisitions – large-market Phase 3 oncology clinical trials with positive data are a desirable focus for acquisition. AIM strongly believes that such a Phase 3 study will be possible following the ongoing Phase 2 clinical study evaluating Ampligen in combination with AstraZeneca’s anti-PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitor Imfinzi (durvalumab) in the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer patients with stable disease post-FOLFIRINOX standard of care (the “DURIPANC” study). The DURIPANC study is an investigator-initiated, exploratory, open-label, single-center study expected to enroll up to 25 subjects in the Phase 2 portion. The primary objective of the study is to determine the clinical benefit rate of the combination therapy. The secondary/exploratory objectives include assessing overall survival and progression-free survival; exploring immune-monitoring using available tissue biopsies and peripheral immune profiling; and assessing quality of life. According to the Erasmus MC Cancer Institute, the promising progression-free survival and overall survival seen in Phase 1 of the study – which we believe supported advancement to the ongoing Phase 2 portion of the study – continue to be seen. As of June 30, 2026, all subjects have been enrolled in the study and have received the first dose of study medication. Erasmus MC expects that detailed data will be published later this year. According to Erasmus MC, there has also been no significant toxicity – an encouraging safety profile for a post-chemo setting – and Ampligen subjects are consistently reporting “high quality of life” during treatment.
In March 2026, the Company announced an agreement with the PPD clinical research business of Thermo Fisher Scientific to design AIM’s anticipated Phase 3 clinical trial in the use of Ampligen in the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer. Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. is a global leader in scientific progress.
In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of its consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consist of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are presented as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and do not contain certain information which will be included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
The consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed on March 27, 2026.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure (“GAAP”) of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and those differences may be material. Accounts requiring the use of significant estimates include determination of other-than-temporary impairment on securities, valuation of deferred taxes, patent and trademark valuations, equity-based compensation calculations, fair value of warrants, and contingency accruals.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Company will continue in operation one year after the date these financial statements are issued and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, management must evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date these financial statements are issued. This evaluation does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented or are not within control of the Company as of the date the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates the substantial doubt. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.
The Company’s principal source of liquidity is its cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and proceeds from financing activities to provide the necessary funding to meet our obligations as they become due. The Company has incurred losses from operations and operating cash outflows exceeded cash inflows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Management evaluated the conditions, and the significance of these conditions related to the Company’s ability to meet its obligations. If the Company is unable to implement sufficient mitigation efforts, the Company may be forced to limit its business activities or be unable to continue as a going concern, which would have a material adverse effect on its results of operations and financial condition.

The Company will remain subject to NYSE American’s continued listing monitoring procedures and remains committed to maintaining strong financial discipline and governance going forward.
Note 2: Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. ASU 2024-03 “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” is applicable to AIM beginning for the quarter ending March 31, 2027 and will require additional disclosures for certain income statement line items. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this update. Accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB since filing the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

In the event the Company effects certain mergers, consolidations, sales of substantially all of its assets, tender or exchange offers, reclassifications or share exchanges in which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, the Company consummates a business combination in which another person acquires 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, upon any subsequent conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock, the holders of the Series G Preferred Stock will have the right to receive any shares of the acquiring corporation or other consideration it would have been entitled to receive if it had been a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion in full of the Series G Preferred Stock.
Holders of Series G Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends (on an as-if-converted-to-common stock basis) in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the common stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by law, the Series G Preferred Stock has no voting rights. Upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of Series G Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company the same amount that a holder of Common Stock would receive if the Series G Preferred Stock were fully converted (disregarding for such purpose any conversion limitations under the Certificate of Designation) to Common Stock, which amounts shall be paid pari passu with all holders of Common Stock. The Company is not obligated to redeem or repurchase any shares of Series G Preferred Stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, subject to certain exceptions, the Company could not issue any equity securities for 60 days following the issuance date, provided that the Company was able to utilize its at-the-market offering program with Maxim Group LLC (the “Placement Agent”) after 30 days. Additionally, the Company cannot enter into a variable rate transaction (other than the ATM program with the Placement Agent) for 120 days after the issuance date. In addition, the Company’s executive officers and each of the Company’s directors have entered into lock-up agreements with the Company pursuant to which each of them has agreed not to, for a period of 90 days from the closing of the Transactions, offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Company’s securities, subject to certain exceptions.
The exercise price of the Common Warrants, and the number of Common Warrant Shares, are subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividend or split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described in the Common Warrants. If a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Common Warrants) occurs, then the successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for the Company, and may exercise every right and power that the Company may exercise and will assume all of its obligations under the Common Warrants with the same effect as if such successor entity had been named in the warrant itself. Common Warrant Holders will have additional rights defined in the Common Warrants. The Common Warrants are exercisable on a “cashless” basis only if there is not a current registration statement permitting public resale. In this regard, the Company filed a registration statement to register the resale of the Common Warrant Shares providing for the resale of the Shares issued and issuable upon exercise of the Common Warrants. That registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on July 11, 2024. The Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to keep such registration statement effective at all times until no Purchaser owns any Warrants or Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof.

Note 16: Fair Value
Fair Value
The Company complies with the provisions of FASB ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements” for its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis.
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturities of these items and are considered a Level 1 instrument of the fair value measurements standard. The Company also has certain warrants with a cash settlement feature in the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction. The fair value of the Class A and Class B warrants (“June 2024 Warrants”) related to the Company’s June 2024 common stock and warrant issuance, are calculated using a Black-Scholes Model. The fair value of the Class C and Class D warrants (“October 2024 Warrants”) related to the Company’s October 2024 common stock and warrant issuance, are calculated using a Black-Scholes Model. The fair value of the Class E and Class F warrants (“July 2025 Warrants”) related to the Company’s July 2025 common stock and warrant issuance, are calculated using a Black-Scholes Model. The fair value of the Class G warrants (“March 2026 Warrants”) related to the Company’s March 2026 common stock and warrant issuance, are calculated using a Black-Scholes Model.
The Company estimated the fair value of the Class A Warrants, Class B Warrants, Class C Warrants, Class D Warrants, Class E Warrants, Class F Warrants, Class G Warrants, Class H Warrants, Class I Warrants, Class J Warrants using the Black-Scholes Model, which uses multiple inputs including the Company’s stock price, the exercise price of the warrant, volatility of the Company’s stock price, the risk-free interest rate and the expected term of the warrants.
The Company utilized the following assumptions to estimate the fair value of the Class A Warrants:

| Expected dividend yield | — | |||
The significant assumptions using the Black-Scholes Model approach for valuation of the Warrants are:
| (i) | Risk-Free Interest Rate. The risk-free interest rates for the Warrants are based on U.S. Treasury constant maturities for periods commensurate with the remaining expected holding periods of the warrants. | |
| (ii) | Expected Holding Period. The expected holding period represents the period of time that the Warrants are expected to be outstanding until they are exercised. The Company utilizes the remaining contractual term of the Warrants at each valuation date as the expected holding period. |
| 27 |
| (iii) | Expected Volatility. Expected stock volatility is based on daily observations of the Company’s historical stock values for a period commensurate with the remaining expected holding period on the last day of the period for which the computation is made. | |
| (iv) | Expected
Dividend Yield. The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s anticipated
dividend payments over the remaining expected holding period. As the Company has never issued
dividends, the expected dividend yield is | |
| (v) | Expected Probability of a Fundamental Transaction. Put rights arise if a Fundamental Transaction 1) is an all cash transaction; (2) results in the Company going private; or (3) is a transaction involving a person or entity not traded on a national securities exchange. The Company believes such an occurrence is unlikely because: |
| 1. | The Company only has one product that is FDA approved but is currently not available for commercial sales. | |
| 2. | The Company will have to perform additional clinical trials for FDA approval of its flagship product. | |
| 3. | Industry and market conditions continue to include uncertainty, adding risk to any transaction. | |
| 4. | The nature of a life sciences company is heavily dependent on future funding and high fixed costs, including Research & Development. | |
| 5. | The Company has minimal revenues streams which are insufficient to meet the funding needs for the cost of operations or construction at their manufacturing facility; and | |
| 6. | The Company’s Rights Agreement and Executive Agreements make it less attractive to a potential buyer. |
With the above factors utilized in analysis of the likelihood of the Put’s potential Liability, the Company estimated the range of probabilities related to a Put right being triggered as:
Schedule of Range of Probabilities
| Range of Probability | Probability | |||
| Low | % | |||
| Medium | % | |||
| High | % | |||
The
Black-Scholes Model has incorporated a
| (vi) | Expected Timing of Announcement of a Fundamental Transaction. As the Company has no specific expectation of a Fundamental Transaction, for reasons elucidated above, the Company utilized a discrete uniform probability distribution over the Expected Holding Period to model in the potential announcement of a Fundamental Transaction occurring during the Expected Holding Period. | |
| (vii) | Expected 100 Day Volatility at Announcement of a Fundamental Transaction. An estimate of future volatility is necessary as there is no mechanism for directly measuring future stock price movements. Daily observations of the Company’s historical stock values for the 100 days immediately prior to the Warrants’ grant dates, with a floor of 100%, were utilized as a proxy for future volatility estimates. | |
| (viii) | Expected Risk-Free Interest Rate at Announcement of a Fundamental Transaction. The Company utilized a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the forward U.S. Treasury rate for the period equal to the time between the date forecast for the public announcement of a Fundamental Transaction and the Warrant expiration date for each simulation. | |
| (ix) | Expected Time Between Announcement and Consummation of a Fundamental Transaction. The expected time between the announcement and the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction is based on the Company’s experience with the due diligence process performed by acquirers and is estimated to be six months. The Black-Scholes Model approach incorporates this additional period to reflect the delay Warrant Holders would experience in receiving the proceeds of the Put. |
While the assumptions remain consistent from period to period (e.g., utilizing historical stock prices), the actual historical prices input for the relevant period input change.
The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. AIM categorizes each of its fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:
| 1. | Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the reporting date. Generally, this includes debt and equity securities that are traded in an active market. | |
| 2. | Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quote prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Generally, this includes debt and equity securities that are not traded in an active market. |
| 28 |
| 3. | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or other valuation techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has classified the warrants with cash settlement features as Level 3. Management evaluates a variety of inputs and then estimates fair value based on those inputs. As discussed above, the Company utilized the Black-Scholes Model in valuing the warrants. |
The Company’s marketable securities consist solely of mutual funds. The Company determine realized gains and losses for marketable securities using the specific identification method and measure the fair value of our marketable securities using a market approach where identical or comparable prices are available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values of investments are determined using prices from a pricing service, pricing models, quoted prices of investments with similar characteristics or discounted cash flow models.

Overview
General
AIM ImmunoTech Inc. and its subsidiaries are an immuno-pharma company headquartered in Ocala, Florida, with a strong foundation of laboratory, pre-clinical and clinical data with respect to the development of nucleic acids and natural interferon to enhance the natural antiviral defense system of the human body. AIM’s products are Ampligen (rintatolimod) and Alferon N Injection (Interferon alfa). Ampligen is a double-stranded RNA (“dsRNA”) molecule being developed for the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer, in addition to other globally important cancers, viral diseases and disorders of the immune system. Ampligen has not been approved by the FDA or marketed in the United States, but it is approved for commercial sale in the Argentine Republic for the treatment of severe Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (“CFS”).
The Company’s research and development of Ampligen has included a variety of diseases and health matters:
| ● | Conducting clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ampligen for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. | |
| ● | Evaluating Ampligen across multiple cancers as a potential therapy that modifies the tumor microenvironment with the goal of increasing anti-tumor responses to checkpoint inhibitors. | |
| ● | Exploring Ampligen’s antiviral activities and potential use as a prophylactic or treatment for existing viruses, new viruses and mutated viruses thereof. | |
| ● | Evaluating Ampligen as a treatment for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (“ME/CFS”) and fatigue and/or the Post-COVID condition of fatigue. | |
| ● | Evaluating Ampligen as a vaccine adjuvant in the combination of Ampligen and AstraZeneca’s FluMist as an intranasal vaccine for influenza, including avian influenza. |
Immuno-Oncology
Ampligen is a wide-spectrum therapeutic that has shown positive safety and efficacy in clinical trials of many different solid tumor types. However, based specifically on clinical success as to safety and efficacy in our pancreatic cancer Early Access Program and an ongoing Phase 2 trial, AIM has made the business decision to focus its efforts on the development of Ampligen for the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer, as we believe that this path will potentially lead to the most lucrative outcome. Each year pancreatic cancer kills more than 100,000 people in the American and European Union markets and more than 450,000 people worldwide. When AIM looks at the global health problem of pancreatic cancer, we see a large market in an unmet medical need and with relatively little clinical competition. This large unmet market is enhanced by an intellectual property program with broad-combination therapy patents in the United States, Japan and Europe, as well as market exclusivity provided by orphan drug designations in the United States and the European Union.
Oncology is one of the areas of biotech known for multibillion-dollar mergers and acquisitions deals – large-market Phase 3 oncology clinical trials with positive data are a desirable focus for acquisition. AIM strongly believes that such a Phase 3 study will be possible following the ongoing Phase 2 clinical study evaluating Ampligen in combination with AstraZeneca’s anti-PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitor Imfinzi (durvalumab) in the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer patients with stable disease post-FOLFIRINOX standard of care (the “DURIPANC” study). The DURIPANC study is an investigator-initiated, exploratory, open-label, single-center study expected to enroll up to 25 subjects in the Phase 2 portion. The primary objective of the study is the clinical benefit rate of the combination therapy. The secondary/exploratory objectives include assessing overall survival and progression-free survival; exploring immune-monitoring using available tissue biopsies and peripheral immune profiling; and assessing quality of life. According to the Erasmus MC Cancer Institute, the promising progression-free survival and overall survival seen in Phase 1 of the study – which we believe supported advancement to the ongoing Phase 2 portion of the study – continue to be seen. As of June 30, 2026, all subjects have been enrolled in the study and have received the first dose of study medication. Erasmus MC expects that detailed data will be published later this year. According to Erasmus MC, there has also been no significant toxicity – an encouraging safety profile for a post-chemo setting – and Ampligen subjects are consistently reporting “high” quality of life during treatment.
In March 2026, the Company announced an agreement with the PPD clinical research business of Thermo Fisher Scientific to design AIM’s anticipated Phase 3 clinical trial in the use of Ampligen in the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer. Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. is a global leader in scientific progress.

Ampligen as a Potential Antiviral
We have research and pre-clinical history that indicates the broad-spectrum antiviral capability of Ampligen in animals. We hope to demonstrate that it has the same effect in humans. To demonstrate this requires a population infected with a virus – among other factors – which is why our most recent antiviral focus has been on COVID-19 (the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2) and Long COVID. We have conducted experiments in SARS-CoV-2 showing Ampligen has a powerful impact on viral replication. Previous animal studies yielded positive results utilizing Ampligen to treat viruses such as Western Equine Encephalitis Virus, Ebola, Vaccinia Virus (which is used in the manufacture of smallpox vaccine) and SARS-CoV-1. The prior studies of Ampligen in SARS-CoV-1 animal experimentation may predict similar protective effects against SARS-CoV-2.
Please see “Ampligen as a Potential Antiviral” below.
Ampligen as a Treatment for ME/ CFS and Post-COVID Conditions
The AMP-511 Expanded Access Program (“AMP-511”) is an ongoing open-label treatment protocol allowing patient access to Ampligen in a study under which severely debilitated CFS patients have the opportunity to receive Ampligen to treat this serious and chronic condition.
In July 2023, we enrolled and dosed the first patient in our Phase 2 study evaluating Ampligen® as a potential therapeutic for people with post-COVID conditions (“AMP-518”). We announced in August 2023 that the study had met the planned enrollment of 80 subjects ages 18 to 60 years who have been randomized 1:1 to receive twice-weekly intravenous infusions of Ampligen or placebo for 12 weeks, with a follow-up phase of two weeks. In January 2025, we announced that the final Clinical Study results from AMP-518 had been posted to ClinicalTrials.gov. The results support our belief in Ampligen as a potential therapeutic for people with the moderate-to-severe Post-COVID condition of fatigue, and that this would be the likely subject population for any follow-up clinical trial.
Please see “Ampligen as a Treatment for ME/CFS and Post-COVID Conditions” below.
OUR PRODUCTS
Our primary pharmaceutical product platform consists of Ampligen (rintatolimod), a first-in-class drug of large macromolecular double-stranded (ds) RNA (ribonucleic acid) molecules. Ampligen is the only known TLR3 agonist to avoid helicase activation of NF-κB. Natural dsRNAs and poly IC which activate NF-κB in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and have the potential to enhance cancer cell proliferation. Alferon Injection is an FDA-approved natural alpha-interferon product.
Ampligen®
Ampligen is approved for sale in Argentina (to 2026) for severe CFS and is an experimental drug in the United States currently being developed for the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer, a lethal and unmet global health problem. Over its developmental history, Ampligen has received various designations, including Orphan Drug Product Designation (FDA and EMA), Treatment protocol (e.g., “Expanded Access” or “Compassionate” use authorization) with Cost Recovery Authorization (FDA); and “promising” clinical outcome recognition based on the evaluation of certain summary clinical reports (“AHRQ” or Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality). Based on the results of published, peer-reviewed pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, we believe that Ampligen may have broad-spectrum antiviral and anti-cancer properties.
We believe that nucleic acid compounds represent a potential new class of pharmaceutical products designed to act at the molecular level for treatment of many human diseases. Ampligen represents the first drug in the class of large (macromolecular) dsRNA molecules to apply for NDA review. There are two forms of nucleic acids: deoxyribonucleic acid (“DNA”) and ribonucleic acid (“RNA”). DNA is a group of naturally occurring molecules found in chromosomes, the cell’s genetic machinery. RNA is a group of naturally occurring informational molecules which orchestrate a cell’s behavior which, in turn, regulates the action of groups of cells, including the cells which comprise the body’s immune system. RNA directs the production of proteins and regulates certain cell activities, including the activation of an otherwise dormant cellular defense against viruses and tumors. Our drug technology utilizes specifically configured RNA and is a selective Toll-like Receptor 3 (“TLR3”) agonist that can be administered intravenously, intranasally and intraperitoneally. Ampligen has been assigned the generic name rintatolimod by the United States Adopted Names Council (“USANC”) and has the chemical designation poly(I):poly(C12U).
Expanded Access Program/Early Access Programs/clinical trials of Ampligen that have been conducted or that are ongoing include studies of the potential treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer, renal cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, ME/CFS, Hepatitis B, HIV, COVID-19 and Post-COVID conditions.

We have received approval of our NDA from ANMAT for the commercial sale of Ampligen in the Argentine Republic for the treatment of severe CFS. The product would be marketed by GP Pharm – now Filaxis – our commercial partner in Latin America. Shipment of the drug product to Argentina was initiated in 2018 to complete the release testing by ANMAT needed for commercial distribution. In September 2019, we received clearance from the FDA to ship Ampligen to Argentina for the commercial launch and subsequent sales. In June 2020, we received import clearance from ANMAT to import the first shipment of commercial grade vials of Ampligen into Argentina. Collaboration with Filaxis continues for commercial launch of Ampligen in Argentina and they are currently in the process of renewing the existing license. To successfully bring this to market, several key steps are necessary, including building disease awareness, providing medical education, securing appropriate reimbursement, developing effective market strategies, and finalizing manufacturing preparations for launch.
The economic landscape in Argentina has changed dramatically since then with the country experiencing significant hyper-inflation. As contracts in Argentina are U.S. dollar contracts, the parties must evaluate the impact of the devaluation on the relationship and the ability to go forward on a U.S.-dollar basis. The combination of the cost and frequency of treatments has rendered CFS treatments in Argentina cost prohibitive, at least for the time being. We will therefore focus our efforts with Filaxis on an approval in Argentina for pancreatic cancer.
In May 2016, we entered into a five-year agreement with myTomorrows, a Netherlands-based company, for the commencement and management of an Early Access Program (“EAP”) in Europe and Turkey related to ME/CFS. Pursuant to the agreement, as amended, myTomorrows also is managing all Early Access Programs and Special Access Programs in Europe, Canada, and Turkey to treat pancreatic cancer and ME/CFS patients. The agreement was automatically extended for a period of 12 months on May 20, 2021 and will continue to be automatically extended for periods of 12 months every May 20 until terminated or the terms of the agreement are met.
In June 2018, Ampligen was cited as outperforming two other TLR3 agonists — poly IC and natural double stranded RNA — in creating an enhanced tumor microenvironment for checkpoint blockade therapy in the journal of Cancer Research. In a head-to-head study in explant culture models, Ampligen activated the TLR3 pathway and promoted an accumulation of killer T cells but, unlike the other two TLR3 agonists, it did so without causing regulatory T cell (Treg) attraction. These findings were considered important because they indicate that Ampligen selectively reprograms the tumor microenvironment by inducing the beneficial aspects of tumor inflammation (attracting killer T cells), without amplifying immune-suppressive elements such as regulatory T cells. The study was conducted at the University of Pittsburgh and Roswell Park as a part of the NIH-funded P01 CA132714 and Ovarian Cancer Specialized Program of Research Excellence (“SPORE”).
AIM currently has adequate stock of Ampligen for ongoing clinical purposes. As to the production of additional Ampligen when and if needed, the validation of the polymer production process with Sterling Pharma Solutions (“Sterling”) is ongoing. This will need to be completed before we can manufacture more polymer, and thus more Ampligen.
Alferon N Injection®
Alferon N Injection is the registered trademark for our injectable formulation of natural alpha interferon. Alferon N Injection is the only natural-source, multi-species alpha interferon currently approved for sale in the United States and Argentina for the intralesional (within lesions) treatment of refractory (resistant to other treatment) or recurring external genital warts in patients 18 years of age or older. Alferon N Injection is also approved in Argentina for the treatment of refractory patients that failed or were intolerant to treatment with recombinant interferons. Certain types of human papilloma viruses (“HPV”) cause genital warts, a sexually transmitted disease (“STD”). According to the CDC, HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection, with approximately 79 million Americans — most in their late teens and early 20s — infected with HPV. Although they do not usually result in death, genital warts commonly recur, causing significant morbidity and entail substantial health care costs.
Interferons are a group of proteins produced and secreted by cells to combat diseases. Researchers have identified four major classes of human interferon: alpha, beta, gamma and omega. Alferon N Injection contains a multi-species form of alpha interferon. The worldwide market for injectable alpha interferon-based products has experienced rapid growth and various alpha interferon injectable products are approved for many major medical uses worldwide. Alpha interferons are manufactured commercially in three ways: by genetic engineering, by cell culture, and from human white blood cells. All three of these types of alpha interferon are or were approved for commercial sale in the United States. Our natural alpha interferon is produced from human white blood cells. The potential advantages of natural alpha interferon over recombinant (i.e., synthetic) interferon produced and marketed by other pharmaceutical firms may be based upon their respective molecular compositions. Natural alpha interferon is composed of a family of proteins containing many molecular species of interferon. In contrast, commercial recombinant alpha interferon products each contain only a single species. Researchers have reported that the various species of interferons may have differing antiviral activity depending upon the type of virus. Natural alpha interferon presents a broad complement of species, which we believe may account for its higher activity in laboratory studies. Natural alpha interferon is also glycosylated (i.e., partially covered with sugar molecules). We believe that the absence of glycosylation may be in part responsible for the production of interferon-neutralizing antibodies seen in patients treated with recombinant alpha interferon. Although cell culture-derived interferon is also composed of multiple glycosylated alpha interferon species, the types and relative quantity of these species are different from our natural alpha interferon.
The production of new Alferon N Injection Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient, or API, is currently on hold. We do not know when – or if ever – our products will be generally available for commercial sale for any indication. Given our focus on developing Ampligen as an oncology therapy and antiviral, at this time we are not focusing on developing Alferon N Injection.

PATENTS AND NON-PATENT EXCLUSIVITY RIGHTS
We consider patent exclusivity as a crucial component of our business. As of June 30, 2026, we had 31 patents worldwide with 21 additional pending patent applications comprising our intellectual property.
We continually review our patents to assess their value. Please see “Note 6: Patents, and Trademark Rights, Net” under Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on these patents.
There are no current patent litigation proceedings involving AIM.
Orphan Drug Designation
We have received Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) from the FDA for Ampligen used in the treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, HIV, Metastatic Melanoma, Renal Cell Carcinoma, Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma and Ebola Virus Disease. U.S. ODD qualifies sponsors for incentives including tax credits for qualified clinical trials, exemption from user fees and a potential seven years of market exclusivity after FDA approval.
In the European Union, ODD carries ten years of market exclusivity after receiving marketing authorization. We have received ODD from the EU for Ampligen used in the treatment of Ebola Virus Disease and Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma, and for Alferon used in the treatment of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (“R&D”)
Our general focus during the past several fiscal years has been on expanding the market potential of Ampligen through investigation of efficacy (in vitro and in vivo) in different immune-based disorders including cancer and CFS. We also have focused on research and development of potential prophylactic and therapeutic applications for the treatment of COVID-19, including the long-term effects of COVID-19.
Immuno-Oncology
We hold multiple patents related to the use of Ampligen as part of a combination therapy when combined with checkpoint inhibitors for the treatment of cancer. The combination of these compounds is designed to work synergistically to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment. AIM’s “synergistic” patents include a U.S. patent (expires August 9, 2039) for methods involving use of Ampligen as part of a combination oncology therapy when paired with an anti-PD-L1 antibody; a patent in Japan (expires December 20, 2039) for the use of Ampligen in combination with checkpoint inhibitors (anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 antibodies) for the treatment of cancer; and a patent in the Netherlands (expires December 19, 2039) for the use of Ampligen as a combination cancer therapy with checkpoint blockade inhibitors, such as Keytruda (pembrolizumab), Opdivo (nivolumab) and Imfinzi (durvalumab). Additional “synergistic” patent applications are pending, and AIM will promptly announce when any such patent is issued. Additionally, in June 2025 we received a patent (expires January 25, 2041) covering methods involving the manufacture of a range of therapeutic double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) products, of which Ampligen is included. Combined with our multiple compositions and methods patents involving Ampligen, this manufacturing patent, along with our other issued patents, further secures our control over the synthesis and use of the first-in-class drug.
Multiple Ampligen clinical trials are underway or recently completed at major university cancer centers testing whether tumor microenvironments can be reprogrammed to increase the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy, including checkpoint inhibitors.
Pancreatic Cancer
AIM has made the business decision to focus its efforts on the development of Ampligen for the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer, as we believe that this path will potentially lead to the most lucrative outcome. Each year, pancreatic cancer kills more than 100,000 people in the American and European Union markets and more than 450,000 people worldwide. AIM’s intellectual property portfolio includes orphan drug designations for pancreatic cancer in both the United States and Europe. The company announced in March 2026 that it would seek similar status in Japan.

There are currently two approved clinical studies utilizing Ampligen in the treatment of pancreatic cancer:
| ● | NCT05927142 - The DURIPANC Study is a Phase 1b/2 clinical trial combining Ampligen with AstraZeneca’s anti-PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitor Imfinzi® (durvalumab) for the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer. The primary objective of the Phase 1b portion was to determine the safety of combination treatment. Investigators at Erasmus Medical Center (“Erasmus MC”) in the Netherlands have completed the safety evaluation of subjects enrolled in the first dose level of the dose escalation design, finding the combination therapy to be generally well-tolerated with no severe treatment-related adverse events or dose-limiting toxicities. In February 2025, we announced that the Erasmus MC Safety Committee had approved the clinical trial to move forward with Phase 2. As of June 18, 2026, the final study subject had received their first dose. With this final subject, Primary Endpoint analysis is anticipated to begin in December 2026 and topline results are anticipated in Q1 2027. DURIPANC’s primary endpoint is Clinical Benefit Rate (“CBR”), defined as the proportion of patients achieving stable disease, partial response or complete response at 24 weeks following initiation of combination therapy. Additionally, in March 2026, the Company announced an agreement with the PPD clinical research business of Thermo Fisher Scientific to design AIM’s anticipated Phase 3 clinical trial in the use of Ampligen in the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer. | |
| ● | NCT05494697 - The Phase 2 AMP-270 clinical trial is a randomized, open-label, controlled, parallel-arm study with the primary objective of comparing the efficacy of Ampligen in combination with standard of care (SOC) versus SOC alone following first-line therapy, such as FOLFIRINOX for subjects with locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Secondary objectives include comparing safety and tolerability. AMP-270 is designed to enroll approximately 90 subjects in up to 30 centers across the U.S. and Europe. In August 2022, we received IRB approval of the trial protocol and so announced the trial’s commencement. In February 2025, we made a business decision to place screening/enrollment on hold and suspend the study. The study may be redesigned or amended, pending additional data from the ongoing DURIPANC clinical trial. |
The active clinical efforts involving Ampligen are built on a strong foundation of both pre-clinical and clinical work. Chief among them was an early access program (“EAP”) at Erasmus Medical Center in the Netherlands, with Prof. C.H.J. van Eijck, MD, as lead investigator. The EAP was for Ampligen as a monotherapy in late-stage pancreatic cancer. A total of 42 pancreatic cancer patients initially received treatment with Ampligen immuno-oncology therapy under the EAP, with more than 80 patients ultimately receiving treatment. Ampligen was associated with median survival of 19.7 months, which is an extension of median overall survival of 8.6 months when compared to the standard of care. The EAP subjects also reported improved quality of life. We are in the process of seeking FDA “fast-track” status.

Ampligen Efforts in Other Cancers of Interest
AIM believes that Ampligen has potential as both a monotherapy and as part of a combination therapy in the treatment of many solid tumor types. Our clinical work in this area includes:
| ● | Advanced Recurrent Ovarian Cancer (NCT02432378) - Results of the Phase 1 portion of a Phase 1/2 study of intraperitoneal chemo-immunotherapy in advanced recurrent ovarian cancer were published in the American Association for Cancer Research publication, Clinical Cancer Research (Clin Cancer Res January 19, 2022 DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-21-3659). The study results represent an important extension of prior studies using human tumor explants that showed Ampligen’s potential role as a TLR3 agonist acting synergistically with high-dose IFNα and celecoxib to selectively enhance Teff cell-attractants while suppressing Treg-attractants in the tumor microenvironment with a concomitant increase in the Teff/Treg ratio. The importance of boosting the Teff/Treg ratio in the tumor microenvironment is that it is associated with the conversion of ‘cold’ tumors into ‘hot’ tumors, which have an increased sensitivity to chemo-immunotherapy and an improved chance of showing tumor regression. The Phase 1 portion was designed to establish intraperitoneal safety. The Phase 2 portion of the study has been terminated due to lack of funding. |
| 35 |
| ● | Advanced Recurrent Ovarian Cancer (NCT03734692) - A Phase 2 study of advanced recurrent ovarian cancer using cisplatin, pembrolizumab, plus Ampligen; 27 patients enrolled, with 24 evaluable for response. In May 2026, we announced results from the UPMC Primary Endpoint Report. The topline results included: 50% Objective Response Rate (ORR), including 21% complete responses; 79% Clinical Benefit Rate; Median Overall Survival of 32.5 months; durable responses exceeding 70+ months in select patients; and no Grade 4 or 5 toxicities observed. Collection of additional secondary endpoint data including progression-free survival, time to disease progression and overall survival is expected to be completed in January 2027. Based on these results and other research suggesting a similar effect in other solid tumor types, AIM sees an Ampligen combination therapy as having potential across multiple types of cancers. Additional clinical studies are being planned in these tumor types to further confirm these effects. | |
| ● | Stage 4 Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer (NCT03599453) - Phase 1 study of metastatic triple-negative breast cancer using chemokine modulation therapy, including Ampligen and pembrolizumab. Eight patients were enrolled and 6 patients were evaluable. The key findings announced in April 2022 and published in November 2023, included:. The pre-determined primary endpoint of efficacy was met (increase in CD8 in TME). Uniform increase of immune markers upon treatment was observed: CD8 mRNA (6.1-fold; p-0.034), GZMB mRNA (3.5-fold; p=0.058), ratios of CD8 /FOXP3 and GZMB/FOXP3 (5.7-fold; p=0.036, and 7.6-fold; p=0.024 respectively), thus successfully meeting the pre-determined primary endpoint in the study (increase in CD8 in TME). In addition, an increase in CTL attractants CXCL10 (2.6-fold; p=0.104) and CCL5 (3.3-fold; p=0.019) was observed. In contrast, Treg marker FOXP3 or Treg attractants CCL22 or CXCL12 were not enhanced. Three patients had stable disease lasting 2.4, 2.5 and 3.8 months, as of data cut off September 1, 2021. An additional patient (non-evaluable) had a partial response (breast tumor autoamputation) with massive tumor necrosis in the post-CKM biopsy. | |
| ● | Stage 4 Colorectal Cancer Metastatic to the Liver (NCT03403634) - Phase 2a study of Ampligen as a component of chemokine modulatory regimen on colorectal cancer metastatic to liver; recruitment has been completed; 19 patients were enrolled and 12 patients were evaluable for the primary endpoint. The key findings announced in April 2022 included. The study’s primary endpoint was met, evidenced by increased CD8a expression post-treatment (p=0.046). Increase in the CD8a/CD4 (p=0.03), CD8a/FOXP3 (p<0.01) and GZMB/FOXP3 (p<0.01) ratios. The expression of CTL-attracting chemokines CCL5 (p=0.08), CXCL9 (p=0.05), and CXCL10 (p=0.06) were increased, while expression of the Treg/MDSC attractant CXCL12 (p=0.07) was decreased post-treatment. OS was 10.5 (90% CI 2.2-15.2) months, and the median PFS was 1.5 (90% CI 1.4, 1.8) months. No tumor responses were seen. The treatment was well tolerated. Of all enrolled patients (N=19), adverse events were noted in 74% of patients, with the most common being fatigue (58%). Grade 3 or higher adverse events were rare (5%). | |
| ● | Early-Stage Prostate Cancer (NCT03899987) - Phase 2 study investigating the effectiveness and safety of aspirin and Ampligen with or without interferon-alpha 2b (Intron A) compared to no drug treatments in a randomized three-arm study of patients with prostate cancer before undergoing radical prostatectomy. Patient enrollment was initiated in this study designed for up to 45 patients. The study was temporarily suspended due to the Merck discontinuation of Intron-A production. Roswell Park has had a Type-C meeting with the FDA and has performed the necessary experiments to replace Intron-A with a generic alpha-interferon. As of August 2025, the study is no longer recruiting patients. A total of 12 patients were enrolled. | |
| ● | Early-Stage Triple Negative Breast Cancer (NCT04081389) - The objective of this Phase 1 study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a combination of Ampligen, celecoxib with or without Intron A, when given along with chemotherapy in patients with early-stage triple negative breast cancer. The now completed (as of September 2022) topline results from the study confirm the positive findings that were previously presented at the 2022 Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) 37th Annual Meeting in a poster presentation titled Safety and efficacy of de-escalated neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) using chemokine-modulating regimen (rintatolimod, IFN-α2b, celecoxib). The primary endpoint of the study was safety and tolerability. The results demonstrated that treatment was well-tolerated with mostly grade 1 or 2 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) without dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) or delayed or immune-related toxicities. DLT was defined as grade 3 or higher toxicities within the first 3 weeks. Secondary endpoints included pCR rate where 5/9 (56%) of patients attained pCR and 1 more patient attained ypTmic. Tumor and blood biomarkers were also analyzed in exploratory studies. | |
| ● | Refractory Melanoma (NCT04093323) - Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center (“Roswell Park”), in a clinical trial fully funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), has commenced patient enrollment in its Phase 2 study in subjects with primary PD-1/PD-L1 resistant melanoma. The Phase 2 study will evaluate type-1 polarized dendritic cell (αDC1) vaccine in combination with tumor-selective chemokine modulation (“CKM”) comprised of Interferon alpha 2b, Ampligen (rintatolimod) and Celecoxib. Up to 24 patients are to be enrolled. The study was temporarily suspended due to the Merck discontinuation of Intron-A production but has since resumed recruitment. In June 2025, the study was terminated with 1 patient enrolled, funding completed. | |
| ● | Metastatic or Unresectable Triple Negative Breast Cancer (NCT05756166) - This phase 1/2a trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of chemokine modulation therapy (rintatolimod, celecoxib, and interferon alpha 2b) in combination with pembrolizumab for the treatment of patients with triple negative breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). In June 2025, the study was terminated with 5 patients enrolled, funding ended. |

Ampligen as a Potential Antiviral
We have research and pre-clinical history that indicates the broad-spectrum antiviral capability of Ampligen in animals. We hope to demonstrate that it has the same effect in humans. To demonstrate this requires a population infected with a virus – among other factors – which is why our most recent antiviral focus has been on COVID-19 (the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2). We have conducted experiments in SARS-CoV-2 showing Ampligen has a powerful impact on viral replication. Previous animal studies yielded positive results utilizing Ampligen to treat viruses such as Western Equine Encephalitis Virus, Ebola, Vaccinia Virus (which is used in the manufacture of smallpox vaccine) and SARS-CoV-1. The prior studies of Ampligen in SARS-CoV-1 animal experimentation may predict similar protective effects against SARS-CoV-2.
| ● | The Barnard 2006 study found that Ampligen reduced virus lung levels to below detectable limits. | |
| ● | The Day 2009 study found that, instead of 100% mortality, there was 100% protective survival using Ampligen. |
SARS-CoV-2 shares important genomic and pathogenic similarities with SARS-CoV-1. Since Ampligen has shown antiviral activity against more distantly related coronaviruses, there is a reasonable probability that the antiviral effects of Ampligen against SARS-CoV-1 will extend to SARS-CoV-2, and in fact Ampligen has demonstrated ex vivo antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2. Additionally, research at Utah State University’s Institute for Viral Research showed that Ampligen was able to decrease SARS-CoV-2 infectious viral yields by 90% at clinically achievable intranasal Ampligen dosage levels.
Our intellectual property portfolio includes a Japanese patent for the treatment of severe acute viral infections, including influenza and SARS.
In May 2020, the FDA authorized an IND for Roswell Park to conduct a Phase 1/2a study of a regimen of Ampligen and interferon alpha in cancer patients with COVID-19 infections. This clinical trial (NCT04379518), sponsored in collaboration with Roswell Park, was designed to test the safety of the combination regimen in patients with cancer and COVID-19, and the extent to which this therapy might promote clearance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus from the upper airway. The first patient enrolled and treated in November 2020. This study was amended to add 20 patients but ultimately terminated in January 2026 due to low accrual. Roswell Park reported partial results from the study, 4 patients were enrolled.
In January 2021, we entered into a Sponsor Agreement with the Center for Human Drug Research (“CHDR”) to manage a Phase 1 randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the safety and activity of repeated intranasal administration of Ampligen. AIM funded and sponsored the study. This study was designed to assess the safety, tolerability and biological activity of repeated administration of Ampligen intranasally. A total of 40 healthy subjects received either Ampligen or a placebo in the trial, with the Ampligen given at four escalating dosages across four cohorts, to a maximum level of 1,250 micrograms. The study was completed, and the Final Safety Report reported no Serious or Severe Adverse Events at any dosage level. We believe that the trial is a critical step in our efforts to develop Ampligen as a potential prophylaxis or treatment for COVID-19 and other respiratory viral diseases.
We believe that these results create a compelling case for further clinical trials to evaluate Ampligen as a potential tool in the fight against COVID-19.
Ampligen as a Treatment for ME/CFS and Post-COVID Conditions
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), also known as Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (“CFIDS”) and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), is a serious and debilitating chronic illness and a major public health problem. ME/CFS is recognized by both the government and private sector as a significant unmet medical need, including the U.S. National Institutes of Health (“NIH”), FDA and the CDC.
Many severe ME/CFS patients become completely disabled or totally bedridden and are afflicted with severe pain and mental confusion even at rest. ME/CFS is characterized by incapacitating fatigue with profound exhaustion and extremely poor stamina, sleep difficulties and problems with concentration and short-term memory. It is also accompanied by flu-like symptoms, pain in the joints and muscles, tender lymph nodes, sore throat and new headaches. A distinctive characteristic of the illness is a worsening of symptoms following physical or mental exertion, which do not subside with rest.
The AMP-511 Expanded Access Program (“AMP-511”) is an open-label treatment protocol allowing Ampligen access to severely debilitated CFS patients. The AMP-511 protocol started in the 1990s and is ongoing. The data collected from the AMP-511 protocol through clinical sites provide safety information regarding the use of Ampligen in patients with CFS. We are establishing an enlarged database of clinical safety information which we believe will provide further documentation regarding the absence of autoimmune disease associated with Ampligen treatment. We believe that continued efforts to understand existing data, and to advance the development of new data and information, will ultimately support our future filings for Ampligen and/or the design of future clinical studies that the FDA requested in a CRL. The FDA approved an increased reimbursement level from $200 to $345 per 200 mg vial of Ampligen, due to increased production costs; which was re-authorized in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. At this time, we do not plan on passing this adjustment along to the patients in this program.
| 37 |
In October 2020, we received IRB approval for the expansion of the AMP-511 Expanded Access Program clinical trial for ME/CFS to include patients previously diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 following clearance of the virus, but who still demonstrate chronic fatigue-like symptoms known as Post-COVID conditions. As of June 30, 2026, there were 4 patients enrolled in this open-label expanded access treatment protocol (including one patient with Post-COVID Conditions). In July 2022, AIM reported positive preliminary results based on data from the first four Post-COVID Condition patients enrolled in the study. The data show that, by week 12, compared to baseline, the investigators observed what they considered a clinically significant decrease in fatigue-related measures. To date, there have been eight such Post-COVID patients treated in this study.
In November 2020, we announced the publication of statistically significant data detailing how Ampligen could have a considerable positive impact on people living with ME/CFS when administered in the early stages of the disease. The data were published in PLOS ONE, a peer-reviewed open access scientific journal published by the Public Library of Science. AIM researchers found that the TLR3 agonist Ampligen substantially improved physical performance in a subset of ME/CFS patients.
In July 2023, we enrolled and dosed the first patient in our Phase 2 study evaluating Ampligen as a potential therapeutic for people with post-COVID conditions (“AMP-518”). We announced in August 2023 that the study had met the planned enrollment of 80 subjects ages 18 to 60 years who had been randomized 1:1 to receive twice-weekly intravenous infusions of Ampligen or placebo for 12 weeks, with a follow-up phase of two weeks. All patients completed the study, and topline data was reported in February 2024.
In January 2025, we announced that the final Clinical Study results from AMP-518 had been posted to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study subjects with Long COVID were, on average, able to walk farther in a Six-Minute Walk Test (“6MWT”) when compared to subjects who received a placebo. The 6MWT measured the distance a subject was able to walk in six minutes as a baseline and then again at 13 weeks. A clear signal of significant potential (p <0.02, two-tailed T-test) was observed in Ampligen-treated subjects with a baseline 6MWT less than 205 meters, who saw a mean improvement of 139 meters, compared to a mean improvement of 91 meters in the corresponding part of the group who received the placebo. These results support our belief in Ampligen as a potential therapeutic for people with the moderate-to-severe Post-COVID condition of fatigue, and that this would be the likely subject population for AIM’s planned follow-up clinical trial.
We are holding off on further research and development in ME/CFS/Long-COVID until the ongoing DURIPANC clinical study in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is complete.
Ampligen and Other Diseases
Endometriosis
| ● | In October 2024, we were granted U.S. patent No. 12,102,649, covering both compositions and methods comprising a range of TRL3 agonist, within the drug Ampligen, in the treatment of endometriosis, a painful chronic condition in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, causing severe pelvic pain and making it difficult or impossible to become pregnant. The patented method involves the administration of a therapeutically effective amount of pharmaceutical composition containing our proprietary double-stranded RNA products. The versatile administration options offer flexibility for patient-specific needs and care. The patent also covers treatments targeting recurrent endometriosis and includes options for co-administration with interferons, including well-known types such as alpha and beta interferons. |
Ebola-related Disorders - We concluded our series of collaborations designed to determine the potential effectiveness of Ampligen and Alferon N Injection as potential preventive and/or therapeutic treatments for Ebola-related disorders. Although we believe that the threat of both MERS and Ebola globally may reemerge in the future, it appears that the spread of these disorders has diminished.
| ● | In April 2021, we entered into an MTA with the University of Cagliari Dipartimento di Scienze della Vita e dell’Ambiente (“UNICA”), an educational institution, under the laws of Italy, located in Monserrato (Cagliari), Italy. The MTA relates to the research and development of the effects of Ampligen and its ability to induce interferon production in several cell lines, and also on the ability of the Ebola virus protein VP35 to bind to viral dsRNA and impede interferon’s upregulation and activity, and on Ampligen’s ability to reverse VP35 inhibition of interferon production in biological systems. The data analysis was published in the peer-reviewed journal Antiviral Research, in a manuscript titled “Ebola virus disease: In vivo protection provided by the PAMP restricted TLR3 agonist rintatolimod and its mechanism of action.” We believe that the analysis supports a dual mechanism of action when Ampligen is used as a prophylactic therapy against Ebola Virus Disease. | |
| ● | In November 2022, we received notice that the FDA had granted Orphan Drug Designation to Ampligen for the treatment of Ebola virus disease. |
| 38 |
Alzheimer’s Disease
| ● | In May 2021, we filed a U.S. Provisional Patent Application for Ampligen as a potential therapeutic to possibly slow, halt, or reverse the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. A similar patent application was filed in Europe in 2022. |
Avian Influenza
| ● | We announced in February 2025 our intention to pursue a study of a potential avian influenza combination therapy of Ampligen and AstraZeneca’s FluMist, a nasal spray vaccine that helps prevent seasonal influenza. The new proposed clinical trial would expand upon previous Company-sponsored clinical research at the University of Alabama-Birmingham (“UAB”), which indicated that intranasal delivery of Ampligen after the intranasal delivery of the FluMist seasonal influenza vaccine increased the immune response to seasonal variants in the vaccine by greater than four-fold and induced cross-reactive secretory Immunoglobulin A against highly pathogenic avian influenza virus strains H5N1, H7N9 and H7N3. We are seeking collaborative grants from government and industry to defray the cost of the study. We believe that pre-clinical and clinical work to date – combined with the ever-growing threat of Avian influenza – strongly supports our decision to move forward with this second Ampligen and FluMist study in humans. |
MANUFACTURING
AIM’s operations, research and development facility is housed in the New Jersey Bioscience Center and leased with the New Jersey Economic Development Authority.
Jubilant HollisterStier (“Jubilant”) has been our authorized CMO for Ampligen since 2017. Multiple lots of Ampligen were produced from 2018 to 2023. AIM currently has adequate stock of Ampligen for ongoing clinical purposes. In addition, we have supplied GP Pharm, now Filaxis, with the Ampligen required for testing and ANMAT release under the agreement that GP Pharm, now Filaxis, would be the eventual distributor in Argentina.
Our business plan calls for the potential utilization of one or more CMOs. While we believe we have sufficient Ampligen API to meet our current needs, we are also continually exploring new efficiencies so as to maximize our ability to fulfill future obligations. In December 2022, we entered into a Master Service Agreement and a Quality Agreement with Sterling Pharma Solutions (“Sterling”) for the manufacture of our Poly I and Poly C12U polynucleotides and transfer of associated test methods at Sterling’s Dudley, UK, location to produce the polymer precursors to manufacture the drug Ampligen. We are utilizing Sterling’s expertise to refine our approach to polymer production; the validation of the polymer production process with Sterling is ongoing.
Licensing/Collaborations/Joint Ventures
We have embarked on a strategy to license the product and/or to collaborate and/or create a joint venture with companies that have demonstrated capabilities and commitment to successfully gain approval and commercialize Ampligen in their respective global territories of the world. Ideal partners would have well-established global and regional experience and coverage; robust commercial infrastructure; a strong track record of successful development and registration of in-licensed products; and a therapeutic area fit (e.g., ME/CFS, immuno-oncology).
As Filaxis has now turned its focus to oncology, we are exploring the potential for the use of Ampligen in Argentina for the treatment of pancreatic cancer as either a monotherapy or in combination with immunotherapies.
MARKETING/DISTRIBUTION
Beginning in May 2016, we have had an exclusive Renewed Sales, Marketing, Distribution and Supply Agreement (the “Agreement”) with GP Pharm, now Filaxis. Under this Agreement, GP Pharm is responsible for gaining regulatory approval in Argentina for Ampligen to treat severe CFS in Argentina and for commercializing Ampligen for this indication in Argentina. We granted GP Pharm the right to expand rights to sell this experimental therapeutic into other Latin America countries based upon GP Pharm achieving certain performance milestones. The contract ended date May 24, 2024. While we are in discussions with Filaxis to extend the agreement, we are also open to the possibility of looking for a new partner. In August 2021, ANMAT granted a five-year extension to a previous approval to sell and distribute Ampligen to treat severe CFS in Argentina. This extends the approval until 2026.
| 39 |
In May 2016, we entered into a five-year agreement (the “Impatients Agreement”) with Impatients, N.V. (“myTomorrows”), a Netherlands-based company, for the commencement and management of an EAP in Europe and Turkey (the “Territory”) related to ME/CFS. We supplied Ampligen to myTomorrows at a predetermined transfer price. In the event that we receive Marketing Authorization in any country in the Territory, we will pay myTomorrows a royalty on products sold. Pursuant to the Impatients Agreement, the royalty would be a percentage of Net Sales of Ampligen sold in the Territory where Marketing Authorization was obtained. The formula to determine the percentage of Net Sales will be based on the number of patients that are entered into the EAP. We believe that disclosure of the exact maximum royalty rate and royalty termination date could cause competitive harm. However, to assist the public in gauging these terms, the actual maximum royalty rate is somewhere between 2% and 10% and the royalty termination date is somewhere between five and fifteen years from the First Commercial Sale of a product within a specific country. The parties established a Joint Steering Committee comprised of representatives of both parties to oversee the EAP. No assurance can be given that activities under the EAP will result in Marketing Authorization or the sale of substantial amounts of Ampligen in the Territory. The agreement was automatically extended for a period of 12 months on May 20, 2021; has been automatically extended for 12 months on each subsequent May 20; and will continue to be automatically extended for periods of 12 months every May 20 until terminated or the terms of the agreement are met.
Alferon N Injection is approved by the FDA for commercial sales in the United States for the treatment of genital warts. Commercial sales of Alferon N Injection in the United States will not resume until new batches of commercial filled and finished product are produced and released by the FDA. We will need the FDA’s approval to release commercial product once we have identified our new manufacturing approach and submitted satisfactory stability and quality release data. We are not currently manufacturing Alferon N Injection and have no definitive timetable to resume production.
In February 2013, we received approval from Argentina’s ANMAT for Alferon N Injection (under the brand name “Naturaferon”) for the treatment of refractory patients that failed or were intolerant to treatment with recombinant interferon. In JANMAT granted a five-year extension in 2017; a request to extend the approval beyond 2022 has been filed and is still under review. GP Pharm, now renamed Filaxis, has decided not to move forward with this project and has sent us a notice of termination for this project. However, as there are numerous companies in Argentina now providing patients treatment with recombinant interferon, we believe these companies and their patients would benefit greatly from having the opportunity to treat those refractory patients with Naturaferon. We are continuing to seek out potential partners.
In January 2017, the myTomorrows EAP designed to enable access of Ampligen to ME/CFS patients was extended to pancreatic cancer patients beginning in the Netherlands. In February 2018, we signed an amendment to the EAP with myTomorrows to extend the Territory to cover Canada to treat pancreatic cancer patients, pending government approval. In March 2018, we signed an amendment to make myTomorrows our exclusive service provider for special access activities in Canada for the supply of Ampligen for the treatment of ME/CFS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company’s operating results may fluctuate significantly depending on the pace of patient enrollment in our clinical trials, particularly the ongoing DURIPANC study for pancreatic cancer. Patient enrollment has varied, which directly impacts the timing and amount of clinical trial expenditures. Additionally, our ability to maintain compliance with NYSE American listing requirements and the trading status of our common stock may affect our ability to raise capital and, consequently, our ability to fund ongoing operations and clinical development activities. We cannot predict with certainty the timing of regulatory decisions or clinical trial outcomes, which represent material uncertainties that could significantly impact our future results of operations.

The Company’s net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was $3.8 million compared with a net loss of $2.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $1.0 million. The increase in net loss was primarily attributable to offering related costs incurred in connection with multiple equity transactions completed during the quarter, including placement agent fees, legal fees, accounting fees, and other direct transaction costs, as discussed below.
Total costs and expenses increased to $3.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared with $2.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, an increase of approximately 32.5%.
Equity transactions
May 2026 Class H Inducement Transaction
On May 7-8, 2026, the Company entered into inducement letter agreements with eight existing warrant holders pursuant to which such holders agreed to immediately exercise an aggregate of 7,451,920 previously outstanding Class A through Class F Warrants at an exercise price of $0.48 per share, generating gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $3.6 million. In connection with the inducement, the Company reduced the exercise price of the outstanding Class A through Class F Warrants to $0.48 per share. In consideration for the immediate exercises, the Company issued to such holders an aggregate of 14,903,840 new Class H Common Stock Purchase Warrants with an exercise price of $0.60 per share and a five-year term commencing on the Stockholder Approval Date. In connection with the inducement transaction, the Company also issued 447,116 Placement Agent Warrants to Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc. with an exercise price of $0.60 per share and a five-year term commencing on the issue date, issued pursuant to the Investment Banking Agreement dated April 9, 2026. The Class H Warrants and Class H Placement Agent Warrants are equity-classified. The Class H Warrants are not exercisable until the Company obtains stockholder approval (See Note 17: Subsequent Events) and include a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99%, or 9.99% upon election, customary anti-dilution adjustments, cashless exercise rights if there is no effective registration statement or available prospectus for resale of the underlying shares, and fundamental transaction provisions.
The Company evaluated the temporary reduction in the exercise price of the Class A through Class F Warrants as a modification of freestanding equity-classified written call options. The incremental fair value effect of the modification was approximately $8,235 based on a class-by-class analysis and was attributable to the Class A and Class C Warrants. The aggregate fair value of the new Class H Warrants issued to the exercising holders was approximately $6.6 million. Accordingly, the aggregate value transferred to the exercising warrant holders was approximately $6.6 million.
The Company also incurred approximately $561 thousand of placement-agent costs in connection with the transaction, consisting of approximately $363 thousand of cash placement-agent fees and approximately $198 thousand representing the fair value of the Class H Placement Agent Warrants. Total holder-side consideration and placement-agent costs associated with the transaction were therefore approximately $7.2 million.
The transaction generated gross exercise proceeds of approximately $3.6 million. The Company recognized equity issuance costs equal to the gross proceeds of the transaction, consisting of approximately $561 thouand of placement-agent costs and approximately $3.0 million of holder-side inducement consideration. The remaining approximately $3.6 million of value transferred to the exercising warrant holders exceeded the proceeds available to absorb the transaction costs and was recognized as a deemed dividend. Because the Company had an accumulated deficit, the deemed dividend was recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.
The deemed dividend did not affect the Company’s net loss or total stockholders’ equity but was deducted in determining net loss available to common stockholders for purposes of calculating basic earnings per share. The noncash entries associated with the Class H Warrants, the Existing Warrant modification, and the Class H Placement Agent Warrants also had no net effect on total stockholders’ equity. After payment of the cash placement-agent costs, the transaction increased total stockholders’ equity by approximately $3.2 million, representing the net cash proceeds received.

At June 30, 2026 447,116 Placement Agent Warrants and 14,903,840 Class H Warrants were outstanding.
May 2026 Class I Offering
On May 21, 2026, the Company closed a registered direct offering (the ‘May 2026 Class I Offering’) of 7,519,351 registered shares of common stock and Class I Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase up to 15,038,702 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.325 per share, exercisable for a five-year period commencing on the Stockholder Approval Date.
The combined offering price was $0.325 per share of common stock and accompanying Class I Warrants. Although the Class I Securities Purchase Agreement permitted each Purchaser to elect Pre-Funded Warrants in lieu of common stock, no Purchaser elected to receive Pre-Funded Warrants at closing, and consequently no May 2026 Pre-Funded Warrants were issued. Gross proceeds to the Company totaled approximately $2.4 million.
Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc. acted as the placement agent for the May 2026 Class I Offering and received an 8.0% cash commission of approximately $196 thousand, a 0.75% management fee of approximately $18 thousand, reimbursement of expenses of $100 thousand, and 451,161 Placement Agent Warrants exercisable at approximately $0.41 per share (125% of the offering price) for a five-year period from the effective date of the Registration Statement. The Class I Warrants and Class I Placement Agent Warrants are all classified within stockholders’ equity. The Company applied the relative fair value method per ASC 470-20-25-2 to allocate the gross proceeds between the common stock and the Class I Warrants, resulting in allocations of approximately $939 thousand to common stock and $1.5 million to Class I Warrants. The Class I Warrants will become exercisable only upon receipt of stockholder approval, which the Company is required to seek at a stockholder meeting to be held no later than July 21, 2026. (See Note 17: Subsequent Events)

The combined offering price was approximately $0.52 per share and accompanying warrant. Gross proceeds to the Company totaled approximately $2.6 million.
Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc. acted as the placement agent for the June 2026 Class J Offering and received an 8.0% cash commission of approximately $212 thousand, a 0.75% management fee of approximately $20 thousand, reimbursement of expenses of $100 thousand, and 306,494 Placement Agent Warrants exercisable at approximately $0.65 per share with a five-year term. The Class J Warrants, June 2026 Pre-Funded Warrants, and Class J Placement Agent Warrants are all classified within stockholders’ equity. The Company applied the relative fair value method per ASC 470-20-25-2 to allocate the gross proceeds among the common stock, Pre-Funded Warrants, and Class J Warrants. The Class J Warrants will become exercisable only upon receipt of stockholder approval, which the Company is required to seek at a stockholder meeting to be held no later than July 21, 2026 (concurrent with the Class I and Class H Warrants). (See Note 17: Subsequent Events)
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, prefunded warrants were exercised for 1,300,828 shares of common stock. At June 30, 2026 481,788 Pre-Funded Warrants, 306,494 Placement Agent Warrants and 10,216,476 Class J Warrants were outstanding.
Subsequently, on August 4, 2026, a holder exercised pre-funded warrants to purchase 481,788 shares of common stock upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants and received nominal cash proceeds from the exercise.

Research and development
Research and development costs declined to $589 thousand during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 compared with $1.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Research costs declined as the Company completed a Phase II study in 2026 and shifted its focus toward a European Pancreatic Cancer study which is funded by a grant and in collaboration with a major pharmaceutical interest. The Company expects to begin new studies shortly and the timing and amount of clinical expenditures is dependent on recruiting patients and therefore can be difficult to project and lead to significant expense variations between periods.
General and administrative
General and administrative costs for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 were $1.5 million above those during the three months ended June 30, 2025 due to increases in issuance costs together with legal and accounting fees associated with the equity transactions
Interest expense was $295 thousand and $149 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in interest expense is due to additional debt. On November 18, 2025, the Company (“Borrower”) entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with Streeterville Capital LLC (“Streeterville” or the “Lender”). Under the terms of the agreement, Streeterville paid the Company $2.5 million in exchange for an unsecured promissory Note with an Original Issue Discount of $781 thousand. The Company will pay $3.3 million consisting of the principal amount of the Note, together with the original issue discount and $20 thousand of lender transaction fees, no later than November 18, 2027. The stated interest rate of the note is 10%.

The Company’s net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $6.8 million compared with a net loss of $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $300 thousand. The increase in net loss was primarily attributed to offering related costs incurred in connection with multiple equity transactions completed during the period, including placement agent fees, legal fees, accounting fees, and other direct costs, as discussed below. These increased costs were partially offset by lower research and development expenses.
Total costs and expenses decreased to $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, representing a decrease of approximately 8.2%.

Research and development
Research and development costs declined to $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared with $2.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company decided to direct its focus and efforts on the development of Ampligen for the treatment of late-stage pancreatic cancer, with the belief that this path will potentially lead to the most lucrative outcome. As a result, the Company evaluated its patent portfolio and made a decision to reduce its annual maintenance fees and development of patents not meeting its current core objective. As a result, $335 thousand was charged to clinical expenses during the first quarter of 2025 related to prior costs of developing and maintaining patents not specific to the primary focus and was a significant factor in the variance between the quarters.
Additionally, the Company’s Phase 2 study for pancreatic cancer was put on hold in 2025, which resulted in reduced clinical costs during the first six months of 2026 than during the same time period in 2025. The Company has shifted its focus toward a European Pancreatic Cancer study which is funded by a grant and in collaboration with a major pharmaceutical interest. The Company expects to begin a pivotal phase 3 clinical trial after the final DURIPANC study results become available and a study protocol has been finalized and the timing and amount of clinical expenditures is dependent on recruiting patients and therefore can be difficult to project and lead to significant expense variations between periods.
General and administrative
General and administrative costs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $675 thousand above the six months ended June 30, 2025 as a result of increases in issuance costs together with legal and accounting fees associated with the equity transactions. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company was receiving final billings related to a shareholder dispute which was settled during the fourth quarter of 2024 which reduced the impact of the additional fees incurred during the current year.
Interest expense was $599 thousand and $273 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in interest expense is due to additional debt. On November 18, 2025, the Company (“Borrower”) entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with Streeterville Capital LLC (“Streeterville” or the “Lender”). Under the terms of the agreement, Streeterville paid the Company $2.5 million in exchange for an unsecured promissory Note with an Original Issue Discount of $781 thousand. The Company will pay $3.3 million consisting of the principal amount of the Note, together with the original issue discount and $20 thousand of lender transaction fees, no later than November 18, 2027. The stated interest rate of the note is 10%.

Cash balances increased by $6.9 million or 231.7% during the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily the result of ongoing financing initiatives. The Company raised $1.8 million from a grant of rights offering, $2.5 million from its ATM offering, and $5.7 million from warrant exercises, $1.6 million from the rights offering and $5.3 million from registered directs net of issuance costs during the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Cash used by operating activities increased during the six months ended June 30, 2026 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to the utilization of cash for accounts payable and accrued expenses as well as administrative costs associated with equity transactions.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company utilized a portion of its investments to provide cash for operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company utilized financing activities to provide the necessary operating funds which caused a $1.8 million difference in cash from investing activities when comparing the periods.
Our principal source of liquidity is our cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and proceeds from financing activities to provide the necessary funding to meet our obligations as they become due. As of June 30, 2026, we had $10.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable investments, inclusive of $64 thousand in marketable securities, compared with $3.0 million as of December 31, 2025.
On September 6, 2024, an amendment to an agreement dated April 7, 2022, was executed by us and Amarex clarifying and changing the nature of the remaining execution fee of $725 thousand. The amendment allowed that the remainder would not be exclusive to the agreement dated on April 7, 2022, that the nature of the payment changed from an execution fee to a fully refundable deposit, and that it could be applied to any invoice upon mutual agreement of the parties, removed the threshold contingencies, and if such invoices were not sufficient to exhaust the balance, that the refund would be refunded in cash. Due to the changes brought about by the amendment, the nature of the payment changed to deposit status. At June 30, 2026, we had a remaining deposit of $128 thousand which may be used to offset future clinical research expenditures. This deposit is listed as a non-current asset on the balance sheet but could provide working capital if the timing of expenditures are realized within the next 12 months.
On April 4, 2025, trading of the Company’s common stock had been suspended by NYSE American. Leading up to this event, the Company and Streeterville (the “Lender”) were in regular communication, regarding the potential impact on the loan agreements. On May 13, 2025, we entered into a Forbearance Agreement with the Lender pursuant to which, for a 1% fee and expenses, the Lender released the Company and its affiliates from all defaults under the Agreements through the date of the Forbearance Agreement and confirmed that, as a result, no Default Interest was due, with no adverse effect on liquidity.
On March 6, 2026, we completed a rights offering (the “2026 Rights Offering”) to our stockholders and to holders of certain of our outstanding options and warrants that had the right to participate in the 2026 Rights Offering as of February 10, 2026, the record date. In the Rights Offering we issued non-transferable subscription rights to purchase 1,842 Units. Each Unit consists of one share of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (the “G Preferred”) and 2,000 warrants to purchase common stock (the “G Warrants”). Each share of G Preferred is convertible, at the option of the holder at any time, into a number of shares of our common stock equal to the quotient of the stated value of the Preferred Stock ($1 thousand) divided by $1.00, the conversion price. Each G Warrant is exercisable for one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share from March 6, 2026, the date of issuance, through its expiration five years from the date of issuance. The 2026 Rights Offering raised $1.8 million in gross proceeds.
We entered into an amendment to a Promissory Note with our Lender on March 10, 2026. The maturity date for the Note was extended until June 30, 2026, and then further extended to June 30, 2027. Other than the maturity date extension, there were no other changes to the agreement.
On May 7, 2026, the Company entered into a warrant exercise inducement offer letter agreement with holders of (i) Class A and Class B common stock purchase warrants issued on May 31, 2024 (the “Existing May 2024 Warrants”), exercisable for up to an aggregate of 112,820 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), (ii) Class C and Class D Common Stock purchase warrants issued on September 30, 2024 (the “Existing September 2024 Warrants”) exercisable for up to an aggregate of 93,060 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) Class E and Class F Common Stock purchase warrants issued on July 31, 2025 (the “Existing July 2025 Warrants” and together with the Existing May 2024 Warrants and the Existing September 2024 Warrants, the “Existing Warrants”) exercisable for up to an aggregate of 8,514,048 shares of Common Stock. The Existing May 2024 Warrants had an exercise price of $36.30 per share, the Existing September 2024 Warrants had an exercise price of $28.00, and the Existing July 2025 Warrants had an exercise price of $1.439.

Pursuant to the Inducement Letter, the Holders agreed to exercise the Existing Warrants for cash at a reduced exercise price of $0.48 per share in consideration of the Company’s agreement to issue the Holders new warrants to purchase up to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 200% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to such Holder’s exercise of Existing Warrants, comprised of new Class H warrants to purchase up to 17,439,856 shares of Common Stock (the “Inducement Warrants” and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Inducement Warrants, the “Inducement Warrant Shares”) with an exercise term of 5 years from the initial exercise date. The initial exercise date of the Inducement Warrants is the Stockholder Approval Date, and the exercise price thereof is $0.60 per share.
On May 8, 2026, the Company completed the Inducement Transaction and received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.6 million and issued the Inducement Warrants.
Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. acted as placement agent in connection with the Inducement Transaction and received a cash fee of approximately $286 thousand, equal to 8.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds, $50 thousand for expenses incurred in connection with the offering, and approximately $27 thousand, representing a management fee equal to 0.75% of the aggregate gross proceeds. The Company also issued to the Placement Agent warrants to purchase up to 6.0% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Existing Warrants pursuant to the Inducement Letter. The Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Inducement Warrants, except that the Placement Agent Warrants will be exercisable until the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance, will have an exercise price equal to 125% of the Reduced Exercise Price, and will include piggyback registration rights that are triggered if there is not an effective registration statement covering all of the Placement Agent Warrant Shares while the Placement Agent Warrants are outstanding.
On May 21, 2026, the Company issued and sold 7,519,351 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and, in a concurrent private placement, Class I warrants to purchase up to 15,038,702 shares of common stock to certain investors for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2.4 million.
On June 10, 2026, the Company issued and sold 2,554,119 shares of common stock and, in a concurrent private placement, 771,503 shares of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,782,616 shares of common stock, and Class J warrants to purchase up to 10,216,476 shares of common stock to certain investors for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million
As a research and development company, we are conducting research necessary to bring our product, Ampligen, to market. As such, we primarily rely on financing activities to provide the necessary funding to meet our obligations as they become due. AIM has a long and demonstrated history of success in these efforts, however, there is no assurance that we will be successful in attaining the necessary funding in the future.
Compliance with NYSE American
On December 11, 2024, we received an official notice of noncompliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing requirements specifically relating to a required stockholders’ equity of $6 million or more. The NYSE American’s review showed that we were not in compliance with that requirement. We submitted a plan (the “Plan”) to the NYSE American detailing actions we would take to regain compliance by June 11, 2026. The NYSE American accepted our Plan on February 26, 2025. If we had been unable to regain compliance by June 11, 2026, our common stock was subject to delisting from the NYSE American. As of June 30, 2026, our stockholders’ equity was $7.7 million.
On April 30, 2025, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders and authorized the Company’s Board of Directors to effect a reverse split at its discretion on a basis of up to one for 100 outstanding shares of Common Stock. On May 29, 2025, the Board authorized the Reverse Split and on June 10, 2025, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation effecting a reverse split of its outstanding shares of Common Stock on a one for 100 basis (the “Reverse Split”). Stockholders were given cash in lieu of any fractional shares on a post-split basis.
On June 11, 2025, the Company was notified by the NYSE American that the Company had regained compliance with Section 1003(f)(v) of the NYSE American’s Company Guide (low selling price) and that trading in the Company’s Common Stock was reinstated on the NYSE American on June 17, 2025.
During the third quarter of 2025, an agreement was reached with a vendor surrounding legal fees. The agreement provided that $3 million of previously billed fees would be forgiven in exchange for payments totaling $1.9 million. The reduction was included as “other income” and accounts payable was reduced.

On January 20, 2026, the Company distributed a stock dividend of one share of our common stock for every 1,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of January 9, 2026, as well as one share of common stock for every 1,000 outstanding options or 1,000 warrants that has a right to receive stock dividends. The distribution was effected on January 20, 2026. This resulted in a reset of the terms of our Class E and Class F Warrants. Per the reset, the exercise price of these warrants dropped to $1.439, additional warrants were issued and a provision in these warrants that resulted in the classification of these warrants as a liability rather than equity was nullified. This resulted in a $8.7 million increase in stockholders’ equity.
On May 7, 2026, the Company entered into a warrant exercise inducement offer letter agreement with certain holders of existing warrants, pursuant to which the holders agreed to exercise their warrants in cash at a reduced exercise price for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.6 million in consideration of the Company’s agreement to issue new warrants upon such exercise.
On May 21, 2026, the Company issued and sold 7,519,351 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and, in a concurrent private placement, Class I warrants to purchase up to 15,038,702 shares of common stock to certain investors for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2.4 million.
On June 10, 2026, the Company issued and sold 2,554,119 shares of common stock and, in a concurrent private placement, 771,503 shares of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,782,616 shares of common stock, and Class J warrants to purchase up to 10,216,476 shares of common stock to certain investors for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million. Following the closing of these transactions, the Company believed it currently had stockholders’ equity in excess of the $6.0 million minimum requirement.
The NYSE American formally notified the Company on June 12, 2026, confirming that the Company had successfully addressed and resolved all deficiencies related to Sections 1003(a)(i), (ii), and (iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide. As a result, the “below compliance” (“.BC”) indicator was removed from the Company’s trading symbol for its common stock, and the Company was removed from NYSE American’s list of noncompliant issuers on its website. The Company will remain subject to NYSE American’s continued listing monitoring procedures and remains committed to maintaining strong financial discipline and governance going forward.
We are committed to a focused business plan oriented toward finding senior co-development partners with the capital and expertise needed to commercialize the many potential therapeutic aspects of our experimental drugs and our FDA approved drug Alferon N Injection.
The development of our products requires the commitment of substantial resources to conduct time-consuming research, preclinical development, and clinical trials that are necessary to bring pharmaceutical products to market. We believe, based on our current financial condition, that we do not have adequate funds to meet our anticipated operational cash needs and fund current clinical trials. At present we do not generate any material revenues from operations, and we do not anticipate doing so in the near future. We will need to obtain additional funding in the future to continue operations and for new studies and/or if current studies do not yield positive results, require unanticipated changes and/or additional studies.
AIM is actively working to explore the potential of Ampligen as an antiviral. We believe that Ampligen’s ability to activate antiviral immune system pathways could make the drug an effective broad-spectrum therapeutic tool against current viruses - such as SARS-CoV-2 - and future viruses that may emerge either as variants, or as entirely new challenges.
At present we do not generate any material revenues from operations, and we do not anticipate doing so in the near future. We will need to obtain additional funding in the future for new studies and/or if current studies do not yield positive results, require unanticipated changes and/or additional studies. If we are unable to commercialize and sell Ampligen and/or recommence material sales of Alferon N Injection, our operations, financial position and liquidity may be adversely impacted, and additional financing may be required. There can be no assurances that, if needed, we will be able to raise adequate funds or enter into licensing, partnering or other arrangements to advance our business goals. We may seek to access the public equity market whenever conditions are favorable, even if we do not have an immediate need for additional capital at that time. We are unable to estimate the amount, timing or nature of future sales of outstanding common stock or instruments convertible into or exercisable for our common stock. Any additional funding may result in significant dilution and could involve the issuance of securities with rights, which are senior to those of existing stockholders. See Part I, Item 1A - “Risk Factors; We will require additional financing which may not be available”.

Material Cash Requirements
Over the next 12 months, we anticipate that our primary cash requirements will include funding ongoing clinical trials for pancreatic cancer, general and administrative expenses, and debt service obligations. As of June 30, 2026, we had approximately $10.0 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. We estimate that our short-term (annual) working capital requirements currently range between $7.2 million and $10.8 million depending on the progress of clinical trials and financing sources.
Our long-term capital needs will depend significantly on the outcome of our ongoing clinical trials, regulatory decisions, and our ability to secure strategic partnerships or licensing arrangements. If Ampligen receives regulatory approval for any indication, we would require substantial additional capital to support commercialization activities. We may seek to raise additional capital through public or private equity offerings, debt financing, or collaborative arrangements with strategic partners.
As of June 30, 2026, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(b) of Regulation S-K, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Possible Sources of Funding
Equity Distribution Agreement
The Company plans to enter into a new Equity Distribution Agreement in August 2026.
ITEM 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
ITEM 4: Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, which have been designed to permit us to effectively identify and timely disclose important information. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized 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. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2026, to ensure that material information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, is appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we made no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1: Legal Proceedings
Please see Part 1; Item 3 “Legal Proceeding” in our annual report in Form 10K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 27, 2026.
ITEM 1A: Risk Factors
Please carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 27, 2026, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, or future results. The risks described in the above reports are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Please also see “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above. In addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, stockholders should carefully consider the following updates to our risk factors:
We have issued a significant number of shares and warrants, which may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we completed multiple equity transactions, including a rights offering, inducement transactions, and registered direct offerings, which raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $10.4 million. These transactions resulted in the issuance of a substantial number of shares of common stock, preferred stock, and warrants. As of June 30, 2026, we had approximately 48.5 million warrants outstanding with various exercise prices. If all outstanding warrants are exercised, existing stockholders would experience significant dilution. Additionally, the exercise of these warrants or the sale of shares issuable upon exercise could depress the market price of our common stock. We may need to raise additional capital in the future, which could result in further dilution to stockholders.
