As
of December 31, 2024,2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $53.6$68.6 million and $1.1$6.4 million cash on hand. For the year 2024,2025, cash used in operations
was $7.1$9.3 million and net loss was $9.0$14.9 million. Despite raising an additional $1.4 million in gross proceeds in February 2025 through
a private placement offering, weWe may need to raise further capital through the sale of additional equity or debt securities
or other
debt instruments, strategic relationships or grants, or other arrangements to support our future operations. Our business plan
includes includes
expansion for our commercialization efforts which will require additional funding. If we are unable to improve our liquidity
position, position,
we may not be able to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability
to generate
revenue and raise capital from financing transactions. Without funding from the proceeds of a capital raise or strategic
relationship relationship
or grant, management anticipates that our cash resources are sufficient to continue operations through AprilJune 2025.2026. Our future
is dependent
upon the ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of new business opportunities.
There There
can be no assurance that we will be successful in accomplishing these objectives. Without such additional capital, we may be required
to curtail or cease operations and be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities other than in the normal course of
business which could cause investors to suffer the loss of all or a substantial portion of their investment. WithumSmith+Brown, PC, our
independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024,2025, has included an explanatory paragraph in its
opinion that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, indicating that
our current liquidity position raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We
are a company with limited operating history, and our operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in establishing a new business
enterprise. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays
frequently encountered in connection with the formation of a new business, the development of new technologies or those subject to clinical
testing, and the competitive and regulatory environment in which we will operate. To date, we have generated revenue from aanatomical limitedlaboratory market
launchservices offered by PPLS and the marketing of CyPath® Lung in Texas.Texas and the recent expansion into the Mid-Atlantic region and Veterans Administration.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully expand our commercialization
efforts or that we will obtain the necessary
regulatory approvals that will allow us to expand our marketing efforts. We may not be able
to maintain certification of CyPath®
Lung as an LDT in accordance with CAP/CLIA guidance and regulations, or obtain approval
of our diagnostic tests in development by the
CMS, the FDA, European Medicines Agency, or Chinese National Medical Products Administration.
Even if we do so and are also able to commercialize
our diagnostic tests, we may never generate revenue sufficient to become profitable.
Our failure to generate revenue and profit would
likely cause our securities to decrease in value or become worthless.
In
addition, while we anticipate generating continued revenue from PPLS, our CAP-accredited, CLIA-certified clinical pathology laboratory,
we do not expect to immediately derive substantive profit from revenue from PPLS’ services. Once we begin to generate such profit,
there is
no guarantee that it will be sufficient to realize the expected financial benefits of the acquisition and that revenue generated
will will
cover necessary operating expenses. In addition, since we have limited experience operating a clinical laboratory, we may not accurately
estimate the expenses we will incur. Ownership of a CAP/CLIA laboratory and related services business may not have the clinical value
and commercial potential which we envision. Any substantive failure of PPLS laboratory to meet our expectations could have a material
negative effect on our results of operations. There can be no assurance that the anticipated benefits of PPLS will materialize or that
if they materialize will result in increased stockholder value or revenue stream to the combined company.
We
do not expect to immediately derive profit from revenue from PPLS’ services. Since its acquisition in September 2023, we have generated
$2.5 million in 2023 and2023, $9.4 million in 20242024, and $6.2 million in 2025 in revenue from PPLS. Once we begin to generate such profit, there
is no guarantee that
it will be sufficient to realize the expected financial benefits of the acquisition. In addition, since we have
limited experience operating
a clinical laboratory, we may not accurately estimate the expenses we will incur.
We
have a limited operating history operating a clinical laboratory, and the members of our management team have limited experience operating
a CAP-accredited,
CLIA-certified laboratory, which may limit the ability of investors to make an informed investment decision.
We
began operating a clinical laboratory in September 2023. Previously, only our Chief Operating Officer, Xavier Reveles, had operated a
CAP-accredited, CLIA-certified clinical laboratorylaboratory, and therefore it may be difficult for investors to analyze our ability to successfully
operate a clinical laboratory. Our ability to generate revenue from the clinical laboratory will depend, in part, on our ability to attract
and maintain customers and on the amount spent by the customers on such services. If our laboratory fails to attract customers and operate
at sufficient capacity, our margins will suffer, and we may not be able to fund the costs we incur to operate it. The success of our
clinical laboratory will also depend, in part, on our ability to attract and retain an appropriately skilled and sufficient workforce
to operate the laboratory and our ability to comply with various quality standards and environmental, health and safety laws and regulations.
We
have insufficient results for investors to use to identify historical trends. Investors should consider our prospects in light of the
risk, expenses and difficulties we will encounter as an early-stage company with respect to operating a clinical laboratory. Our revenue
and income potential for the clinical laboratory is unprovenunproven, and our business model is continually evolving. We are subject to the risks
inherent to the operation of a new business enterprise and cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully address these risks.
Until
we securecomplete FDAour clearanceprospective, forlongitudinal CyPath®clinical Lung as a Class II in vitro diagnostic,trial, we may encounter physicians who will not
order an LDT.
Physicians may require a prospective longitudinal clinical trial to confirm the performance of our CyPath® Lung test. We launched our longitudinal trial in March 2026; however, there can be no assurance that the trial will have favorable results. Without results of a larger clinical trial of CyPath® Lung, some physicians may not order the test.
In
order to market our CyPath® Lung as an IVD medical device, we must receive de novo classification from the FDA
as a Class II in vitro diagnostic. Subject to obtaining necessary financing, we intend to launch a pivotal trial later this year in an
effort to attain such classification; however, there can be no assurance that the trial will have favorable results or that it will generate
the results necessary to obtain such classification. Until such time as we receive de novo classification, which we may never
receive, our marketing efforts are limited to the marketing and sale of CyPath® Lung as an LDT. Without clearance of CyPath®
Lung by the FDA, some physicians may not order the test.
We
may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials if we are unable to locate and enroll a sufficient number of eligible patients
to participate in these trials as required by thesome FDAphysicians or similar regulatory authorities outside the U.S., such as the European Medicines
Agency.
PPLS
is currently the only commercial laboratory offering CyPath® LungLung, and,and therefore we are dependent upon our subsidiary
PPLS for the generation of our revenue. PPLS performs testing when ordered by physicians for their patients. PPLS also generates revenue
related to the use of CyPath® Lung tests for a DODmilitary observational study titled “Detection of Abnormal Respiratory
Cell Populations in Lung Cancer Screening Patients Using the CyPath® Lung Assay,Assay.” and when performed for DOD research
and development on using bronchoalveolar lavage fluid as a biological sample to assess cardiopulmonary function and exercise performance
in military personnel post COVID-19 infection.
Our
commercial opportunity could be reduced or eliminated if our competitors develop and commercialize diagnostic tests or therapeutic products
that are more accurate, more convenient, or less expensive than any diagnostic tests or therapeutic products that we may develop. Our
competitors also may obtain FDA or other regulatory approval for their diagnostic tests or therapeutic products more rapidly than we
may obtain approval
for ours, which could result in our competitors establishing a stronger market position. In addition, our ability
to compete may be affected
in many cases by insurers or other third-party payors.
We
are highly dependent on the principal members of our management, scientific,
and clinical teams, including Maria Zannes, J.D., our President
and Chief Executive Officer, Xavier Reveles, MS, CG(ASCP)cm,
our Chief Operating Officer, and J. Michael Edwards, our Chief
Financial Officer, as well as Roby Joyce, M.D., the Medical Director of PPLS.Officer.
We
will depend on third parties to manufacture our kits, reagentsreagents, and suppliessupplies, and helpto insupport certain commercialization and clinical development
activities, including marketing support for our diagnostic teststests, and tothe design
trial protocols, arrange for and monitor theof clinical trials, andthe collectarrangement and analyzeoversight of clinical
trials, and the collection and analysis of data.
Our
business exposes us to potential product liability and other liability risks that are inherent in the testing, manufacturing, and
marketing marketing
of diagnostic tests and therapeutic products. Such claims may be asserted against us. In addition, using diagnostic tests
and therapeutic
products that may be developed with potential collaborators in our clinical trials and the subsequent sale of these
tests and products
by bioAffinity Technologies or our potential collaborators may cause us to bear a portion of or all product
liability risks. A successful liability
claim, or series of claims, brought against us could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, and results
of operations.
Our
business operations and current and future relationships with investigators, healthcare professionals, consultants, third-party payors,
and customers will be subject, directly or indirectly, to federal and state healthcare fraud and abuse laws, false claims laws, health
information privacy and security laws, and other healthcare laws and regulations. If we are unable to comply, or have not fully complied,
with such laws, we could face substantial penalties. We are exposed to the risk of employee fraud or other illegal activity by our employees,
independent contractors, consultants, commercial partners, vendors, and agents acting on behalf of us or our affiliates. Misconduct by
these parties could include intentional, reckless, and/or negligent conduct that fails to (1) comply with the regulations of CMS, the
FDA FDA
or foreign health authorities; (2) provide true, complete, and accurate information to CMS, the FDA or foreign health authorities;
(3) comply
with manufacturing standards we have established; (4) comply with healthcare fraud and abuse laws in the U.S. and similar
foreign fraudulent
misconduct laws; or (5) report financial information or data accurately or to disclose unauthorized activities to
us.
Ensuring
that our internal operations and future business arrangements with third parties comply with applicable healthcare laws and regulations
will involve substantial costs. It is possible that governmental authorities will conclude that our business practices, including certain
arrangements with physicians who receive stock, warrants, or stock options as compensation for services provided to us, do not comply
with current or future statutes, regulations, agency guidance, or case law involving applicable fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws
and regulations. If our operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws described above or any other governmental laws and
regulations that may apply to us, we may be subject to significant penalties, including civil, criminal, and administrative penalties,
damages, fines, exclusion from U.S. government-funded healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, or similar programs in other
countries or jurisdictions, disgorgement, imprisonment, contractual damages, reputational harm, diminished profits, additional reporting
requirements, and oversight if we become subject to a corporate integrity agreement or similar agreement to resolve allegations of non-compliance
with these laws, and the delay, reduction, termination, or restructuring of our operations. Further, defending against any such actions
can be costly and time consumingtime-consuming and may require significant financial and personnel resources. Therefore, even if we are successful
in defending against any such actions that may be brought against us, our business may be impaired. If any of the physicians or other
providers or entities with whom we expect to do business are found not to be in compliance with applicable laws, they may be subject
to significant criminal, civil, or administrative sanctions, including exclusions from government-funded healthcare programs and imprisonment.
If any of the above occur, it could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our results of operations.
Continuing
concerns over the U.S. healthcare system and energy costs, geopolitical issues, and the availability and cost of credit and government
stimulus stimulus
programs in the U.S. and other countries have contributed to increased volatility and diminished expectations for the global
economy. economy.
These factors, combined with low business and consumer confidence, could precipitate an economic slowdown and recession. Additionally,
political changes in the U.S. and elsewhere in the world have created a level of uncertainty in the markets. If the economic climate
deteriorates, our business, as well as the financial condition of our suppliers and our third-party payors, could be adversely affected,
resulting in a negative impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Changes
in U.S. or international social, political, regulatory and economic
conditions or in laws and policies governing trade,
manufacturing, development, and investment in the countries where we currently conduct
our business could adversely affect our
business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations. Changes or proposed changes
in U.S. or other countries’
trade policies may result in restrictions and economic disincentives on international trade. The U.S.
government has recently
imposed, or is currently considering imposing, tariffs on certain trade partners. The impact of these tariffs is uncertain given
recent court decisions; however, uncertainty can lead to greater instability. Tariffs, economic sanctions,
and other changes in U.S.
trade policy have in the past and could in the future trigger retaliatory actions by affected countries, and
certain foreign
governments have instituted or are considering imposing retaliatory measures on certain U.S. goods. Further, any emerging
protectionist or nationalist trends (whether regulatory- or consumer-driven) either in the U.S. or in other countries could affect
the the
trade environment. Our business, like many other corporations, would be impacted by changes to the trade policies of the U.S.
and foreign
countries (including governmental action related to tariffs, international trade agreements, or economic sanctions).
Such changes have
the potential to adversely impact the U.S. economy or certain sectors thereof, the global economy, and our
industry, and as a result,
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of
operations.
Further,
due to increasing inflation, operating costs for many businesses have increased and, in the future, could impact demand or pricing manufacturing
of our drug candidates or services providers. Inflation rates, particularly in the U.S., have increased recently to levels not seen in
years, and increased inflation may result in increases in our operating costs (including employee wages), reduced liquidity, and limits
on our ability to access credit or otherwise raise capital. In addition, the Federal Reserve has raised, and may again raise, interest
rates in response to concerns about inflation, which coupled with reduced government spending and volatility in financial markets may
have the effect of further increasing economic uncertainty and heightening these risks.
In
addition, the global macroeconomic environment could be negatively affected by, among other things, a resurgence of COVID-19 or other
pandemics or epidemics, instability in global economic markets, increased U.S. trade tariffs and trade disputes with other countries,
instability in the global credit markets, supply chain weaknesses, instability in the geopolitical environment as a result of the withdrawalRussian
of the United Kingdom from the European Union, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the warconflict in the Middle East and other political tensions,
and foreign governmental debt concerns. Such challenges
have caused, and may continue to cause, uncertainty and instability in local
economies and in global financial markets.
PPLS’
future success will depend in part upon the continued relationships
with existing customers, many of whom have developed professional
relationships with pathologists who have established relationships with
our customers. In particular, Roby Joyce, M.D. who is the Medical Director of PPLSpathologists and avice member of our Board of Directors, has a long-term
relationship with certain PPLS clients. We cannot be assured that we will be able to retain his services. Although we have entered into
a three-year employment agreement with him, there can be no assurance that the agreement will not be terminated prior to its expiration.
We do not have an insurance policy on the life of Dr. Joyce, and we do not have “key person” life insurance policies for any
of our other officers or advisors.versa. The loss of employees who have established business relationships with our clients
could result in
delays in services, loss of customers and sales, and diversion of management resources, which could adversely affect
our operating results.
PPLS’
activities currently require the controlled use of potentially harmful chemicals. PPLS cannot eliminate the risk of accidental contamination
or injury to employees or third parties from the use, storage, handling, or disposal of these materials. In the event of contamination
or injury, PPLS could be held liable for any resulting damages, and any liability could exceed its resources or any applicable insurance
coverage it may have. Additionally, PPLS is subject to, on an ongoing basis, federal, state, and local laws and regulations governing
the use, storage, handling,
and disposal of these materials and specified waste products. The cost of compliance with these laws and
regulations may become significant
and could have a material adverse effect on its, and therefore our,our financial condition, results of operations, and cash
flows. In the
event of an accident or if PPLS otherwise fails to comply with applicable regulations, it could lose its permits or approvals
or be held
liable for damages or penalized with fines.
PPLS
uses standard industry billing codes, known as Current Procedural Terminology (“CPT”) codes, to bill for its diagnostic assays.assays
and services. These codes can change over time. When codes change, there is a risk of an error being made in the claim adjudication process.
These These
errors can occur with claims submission, third-party transmission, or in the processing of the claim by the payor. Claim adjudication
errors may result in a delay in payment processing or a reduction in the amount of the payment received. Coding changes, therefore, may
have an adverse effect on PPLS’ revenues. There can be no assurance that payors will recognize these codes in a timely manner or
that the process of transitioning to such a code and updating their billing systems will not result in errors, delays in payments, and
a related increase in accounts receivable balances.
Additionally,
PPLS’ billing activities require its third-party billing provider to implement compliance procedures and oversight, train and monitor
its employees, challenge coverage and payment denials, assist patients in appealing claims, and require PPLS to undertake audits to evaluate
compliance with applicable laws and regulations as well as internal compliance policies and procedures. Payors also conduct external
audits to evaluate payments, which add further complexity to the billing process. If the payor makes an overpayment determination, there
is a risk that PPLS may be required to return some portion of prior payments it has received. These billing complexities and the related
uncertainty in obtaining payment for its assays could negatively affect its revenue and cash flow, its ability to achieve profitability,
and the consistency and comparability of its, and therefore our,our results of operations.
While
PPLS manages the overall processing of claims, it relies on a third-party billing provider to transmit the actual claims to payors based
on the specific payor billing format. Claims processing could be delayed if its third-party provider makes changes to its invoicing system.
Additionally, coding for diagnostic assays may change, and such changes may cause short-term billing errors that may take significant
time to resolve. If claims are not submitted to payors on a timely basis or are erroneously submitted, or if PPLS is required to switch
to a different provider to handle claim submissions, it may experience delays in its ability to process these claims and receipt of payments
from payors, or possibly denial of claims for lack of timely submission, which would have an adverse effect on its,our and therefore our,
revenue and business.
Since
patent applications in the U.S. are maintained in secrecy for at least portions of their pendency periods (published on U.S. patent issuance
or, if earlier, 18 months from earliest filing date for most applications) and since other publication of discoveries in the scientific
or patent literature often lags behind actual discoveries, we cannot be certain that we are or will be the first to make the inventions
to be covered by our patent applications. The patent position of biopharmaceutical and biotechnology firms generally is highly uncertain
and involves complex legal and factual questions. The U.S. Patent and Trademark OfficeUSPTO has not established a consistent policy regarding
the breadth of claims that
it will allow in biotechnology patents.
If
we or a licensee initiateinitiates legal proceedings against a third party to enforce a patent covering one of our diagnostic tests or therapeutic
product candidates, the defendant could counterclaim that the patent covering our diagnostic tests or therapeutic product candidate,
as applicable, is invalid and/or unenforceable. In patent litigation in the U.S., defendant counterclaims alleging invalidity and/or
unenforceability are commonplace, and there are numerous grounds upon which a third party can assert invalidity or unenforceability of
a patent. Third parties may also raise similar claims before administrative bodies in the U.S. or abroad, even outside the context of
litigation. Such mechanisms include re-examination, inter partes review, post grant review, and equivalent proceedings in foreign
jurisdictions (i.e., opposition proceedings). Such proceedings could result in revocation or amendment to our patents in such a way that
they no longer cover our diagnostic tests or therapeutic product candidates. The outcome following legal assertions of invalidity and
unenforceability is unpredictable. With respect to the validity question, for example, we cannot be certain that there is no invalidating
prior art, of which we, our patent counsel, and the patent examiner were unaware during prosecution. If a defendant were to prevail on
a legal assertion of invalidity and/or unenforceability, we would lose at least part, and perhaps all, of the patent protection on our
diagnostic tests or therapeutic product candidates. Such a loss of patent protection could have a material adverse impact on our business.
PPLS
currently offers CyPath®
Lung is currently being offered as an LDT by PPLS. ShouldWhile a federal district court decision concluded FDA does not have jurisdiction
to regulate LDTs, FDA could in the FDAfuture disagreedetermine that CyPath® Lung is not an LDT, or ifCongress thecould enact legislation
FDA’sgranting regulatoryFDA approachauthority to LDTsregulate shouldLDTs, changewhich incould theadversely future,affect our commercialization strategy may be adversely affected, which
wouldand negatively affect our results
of operations and financial condition.
The FDA historically asserted its authority to regulate LDTs as medical devices under the FDCA, but for many years generally exercised enforcement discretion with regard to most LDTs. FDA’s approach changed on May 6, 2024, when FDA promulgated a final rule phasing out its enforcement discretion over LDTs, and stating that compliance with premarket review and quality system requirements would be expected for many LDTs marketed after that date.
On March 31, 2025, a federal district court vacated the FDA final rule, thereby cancelling the rulemaking’s associated requirements. The court held that laboratory developed tests do not meet the definition of a medical device under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (“FD&C”) Act and the FDA therefore lacks jurisdiction to regulate them. The court directed FDA to rescind the final rule, which occurred on September 19, 2025. FDA has not indicated how it will interpret the court ruling or whether it will seek a different regulatory approach with respect to LDTs or components thereof.
We believe that CyPath® Lung is an LDT within the scope of the district court decision and that it is not subject to regulation by FDA. Should FDA take the position that CyPath® Lung, or a component thereof, is not an LDT, or should the Company change the way CyPath® Lung is offered in the future such that it is no longer an LDT, or should Congress in the future enact legislation granting FDA authority to regulate LDTs, CyPath® Lung could become subject to regulation by FDA and face new regulatory burdens including but not limited to premarket authorization requirements
The
FDA considers an LDT to be a test that is developed, validated, and performed within a single laboratory. The FDA has historically asserted
its authority to regulate LDTs as medical devices under the FDCA, but it has generally exercised enforcement discretion with regard to
LDTs. This means that even though the FDA believes it can impose regulatory requirements on LDTs, such as requirements to obtain premarket
approval, de novo classification, or clearance of LDTs, it has generally chosen not to enforce those requirements. The FDA has,
on occasion, sent warning letters to laboratories offering LDTs that the agency believed were not eligible for enforcement discretion
because of how they were developed, validated, performed, or marketed and consequent risks to the public.
On
May 6, 2024, FDA promulgated a final rule phasing out over four years its enforcement discretion over LDTs. The agency states it will
expect compliance with premarket review and quality system requirements for LDTs marketed after May 6, 2024. The FDA states that the
agency will generally not enforce premarket review requirements for LDTs that were marketed before May 6, 2024, if they are not modified
in certain ways. In particular, the rule states that the LDT is exempt if marketed before May 6, 2024, and is not modified in a way that
changes its indications for use; does not alter its operating principle; does not include significantly different technology; and, the
LDT does not adversely change its performance or safety specifications. The Company has no expectation or intention to modify CyPath®
Lung in any manner that will change its indications for use, alter its operating principal or include different technology, or
change its performance or safety specifications.
Although
we do intend to conduct clinical trials in order to receive de novo classification from the FDA as a Class II in vitro diagnostic,
there can be no assurance that the trial will have favorable results or that it will generate the results necessary to obtain such clearance.
Delay
by or failure of the FDA to grant our request for de novo classification, or failure on our part to comply with applicable requirements,
would adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The
FDCA requires that medical devices introduced to the U.S. market, unless exempted by regulation, be authorized by the FDA pursuant to
either the premarket notification pathway, known as 510(k) clearance, the de novo classification pathway, or the premarket approval
(“PMA”) pathway. We plan to seek de novo classification for the CyPath® Lung test in fiscal year
2028. The FDA may not agree that CyPath® Lung meets the criteria for de novo classification, in which case we would
be required to submit a PMA to obtain marketing authorization, which would require manufacturing information and a pre-approval inspection
of the manufacturing facilities and could require review by an FDA advisory panel comprised of experts outside the FDA. Any delay by
or failure of the FDA to grant our de novo request or PMA could adversely affect our consolidated revenues, results of operations,
and financial condition.
Additionally,
obtaining FDA marketing authorization, approval, or de novo classification for diagnostics can be expensive, time consuming and
uncertain, and for higher-risk devices can take several years and require detailed and comprehensive scientific and clinical data. In
addition, medical devices are subject to ongoing FDA obligations and continued regulatory oversight and review. Ongoing compliance with
FDA regulations increases the cost of conducting our business and subjects us to heightened regulation by the FDA and penalties for failure
to comply with these requirements.
ICU
Medical is providing the Acapella®Acapellatm Choice Blue device to assist patients in expelling sputum out of the lungs into a
collection collection
cup noninvasively. This device is 510(k) cleared as a positive expiratory pressure device to help mobilize lung
secretions in people
with certain lung conditions. The device does not have a cleared indication for use as a specimen collection
device. Promotion of the
device by us or our partners for use of the device for specimen collection could cause the FDA to consider
the device to be adulterated
or misbranded in violation of the FDCA and to require a 510(k) clearance for a specimen collection
indication as a condition of distributing
the device. Any disruption to our ability to distribute the Acapella®
Choice Blue could interfere with our ability to
collect adequate patient samples necessary for CyPath®
Lung.
CyPath® Lung also relies on a proprietary algorithm to develop and validate software integrated into the test procedure that generates the quantitative and qualitative diagnostic results that are included in the laboratory report. Certain types of standalone diagnostics software are subject to FDA regulation as a medical device (specifically, software as a medical device or “SaMD”). Some types of SaMD are subject to medical device requirements, including in some cases premarket authorization requirements. If the FDA were to conclude that we are required to obtain premarket authorization for the software, our ability to offer CyPath® Lung as an LDT could be delayed or prevented, which would adversely affect our business.
In
addition to regulations in the U.S., to market and sell our diagnostic tests and therapeutic products in the EU, many Asian countries,
and other jurisdictions, we must obtain separate regulatory approvals and comply with numerous and varying regulatory requirements, both
from a clinical and manufacturing perspective. ClearanceAuthorization by the FDA does not ensure approval by regulatory or payor authorities in
other other
countries or jurisdictions, and approval by one regulatory or payor authority outside the U.S. does not ensure approval by regulatory
authorities in other countries or jurisdictions or by the FDA. However, a failure or delay in obtaining regulatory approval in one jurisdiction
may have a negative effect on the regulatory approval process in others. For example, even if the FDA grants marketing authorization
of a diagnostic test or therapeutic product candidate, comparable regulatory authorities in foreign jurisdictions must also approve the
manufacturing, marketing, and promotion of the diagnostic test or therapeutic product candidate in those countries. Approval procedures
vary among jurisdictions and can involve requirements and administrative review periods different from, and greater than, those in the
U.S., including additional preclinical studies or clinical trials as clinical trials conducted in one jurisdiction may not be accepted
by regulatory authorities in other jurisdictions. In many jurisdictions outside the U.S., a diagnostic test or therapeutic product candidate
must be approved for reimbursement before it can be approved for sale in that jurisdiction. In some cases, the price that we intend to
charge for our diagnostic tests or therapeutic products is also subject to approval. A diagnostic test or therapeutic product candidate
that has been approved for sale in a particular country may not receive reimbursement approval in that country. We may not be able to
obtain approvals from regulatory authorities or payor authorities outside the U.S. on a timely basis, if at all.
Even
if we obtain FDA clearanceapproval of any of our diagnostic tests or therapeutic product candidates,candidates and obtain CMS validation for our diagnostic tests, we may never
obtain approval or commercialize
such products outside of the United States, which would limit our ability to realize their full market
potential.
The
impact of changes to healthcare law and guidance, as well as other changes in the healthcare industry, and changes
in healthcare spending is
are currently unknown and may adversely affect our business model.
We are currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). If we are unable to maintain listing of our securities on Nasdaq or any stock exchange, our stock price could be adversely affected and the liquidity of our stock and our ability to obtain financing could be impaired and it may be more difficult for our stockholders to sell their securities.
Although our Common Stock is currently listed on Nasdaq and we are in compliance with the exchange’s minimum listing requirement, we may not be able to continue to meet Nasdaq’s minimum listing requirements or those of any other national exchange. The Listing Rules of Nasdaq require listing issuers to comply with certain standards in order to remain listed on its exchange. If, for any reason, we should fail to maintain compliance with these listing standards and Nasdaq should delist our securities from trading on its exchange and we are unable to obtain listing on another national securities exchange, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our stockholders:
Our
failure to meet the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market could result in a de-listing of our Common Stock.
The
shares of our Common Stock are listed for trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BIAF” and our Tradeable
Warrants are listed under the symbol “BIAFW.” On February 7, 2025, we received written notice from the Listing Qualifications
Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days (December
23, 2024, through February 6, 2025), our Common Stock did not maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 (“Minimum Bid Price
Requirement”) per share as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading
of our Common Stock, and the Common Stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BIAF.” In
accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until August 6, 2025, to regain
compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Compliance may be achieved without further action if the closing bid price of our Common
Stock is at or above $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time during the 180-day compliance period, in which
case Nasdaq will notify us if it determines we are in compliance and the matter will be closed; however, Nasdaq may require the closing
bid price to equal or to exceed the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for more than 10 consecutive business days before determining
that a company complies.
If,
however, we do not achieve compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by August 6, 2025, we may be eligible for additional time
to comply. In order to be eligible for such additional time, we will be required to meet the continued listing requirements for market
value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum
Bid Price Requirement, and must notify Nasdaq in writing of our intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period.
We intend to actively monitor the bid price of our Common Stock and will consider available options to regain compliance with the Nasdaq
listing requirements.
If
we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market, such as the corporate governance requirements, the
stockholder’s equity requirement, or the minimum closing bid price requirement, The Nasdaq Capital Market may take steps to de-list
our Common Stock or Tradeable Warrants. Such a de-listing or even notification of failure to comply with such requirements would likely
have a negative effect on the price of our Common Stock and Tradeable Warrants and would impair the ability to sell or purchase our
Common Stock when you wish to do so. In the event of a de-listing, we would take actions to restore our compliance with The Nasdaq Capital
Market’s listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our Common Stock to
become listed again, stabilize the market price, improve the liquidity of our Common Stock, prevent our Common Stock from dropping below
The Nasdaq Capital Market minimum bid price requirement, or prevent future non-compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market’s listing
requirements.
The
National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the
sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Because our Common Stock is listed on The Nasdaq
Capital Market, it is a covered security. Although the states are preempted from regulating the sale of covered securities, the federal
statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity,
then the states can regulate or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case. Further, if we were to be delisted from The
Nasdaq Capital Market, our Common Stock would cease to be recognized as a covered security and we would be subject to regulation in each
state in which we offer our securities.
Our Common Stock market price may never exceed the exercise price of our
outstanding warrants.
Each
Tradeable Warrant and Non-Tradeable Warrant that we issued in our initial public offering has an exercise price of $3.0625. Our other
outstanding warrants have exercise prices ranging from $1.50 to $7.35. In the event our Common Stock price does not exceed
the exercise price of the warrants during the period when they are exercisable, the warrants may not have any value.
Our
failure to file a registration statement to register the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants that we issued
in February 2025 will result in a breach of the terms of the warrant inducement agreement.
Pursuant
to the terms of the warrant inducement agreement that we entered into with certain investors in February 2025, we are obligated to file
a registration statement to register the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the new warrants within 45 days of the date
of such agreement and to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the registration statement effective at all times while the investors
own any warrants or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The failure to take any of these actions will constitute
a default under the warrant inducement agreement.
An
investment in our Company generally,generally involves complex federal, state, and local income tax considerations. Neither the Internal Revenue
Service nor any state or local taxing authority has reviewed the transactions described herein and may take different positions than
the ones contemplated by management. You are strongly urged to consult your own tax and other advisors prior to investing, as neither
we nor any of our officers, directors, or related parties can offer tax or similar advice, nor are any such persons making any representations
and warranties regarding such matters.
Our
management collectively owns a substantial percentage of our Common Stock.
Based
on the provisions for determining beneficial ownership in accordance with Rule 13d-3 and Item 403 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange
Act, immediately after this Offering, our officers and directors will own or exercise control of approximately 24% of the voting power
of our outstanding Common Stock. As a result, investors may be prevented from affecting matters involving our Company, including:
Furthermore,
this concentration of voting power could have the effect of delaying, deterring, or preventing a change of control or other business
combination that might otherwise be beneficial to our stockholders. This significant concentration of share ownership may also adversely
affect the trading price for our Common Stock because investors may perceive disadvantages in owning stock in a company that is controlled
by a small number of stockholders.
Effective
internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 (“SOX”) requires us to evaluate and report on our internal controls over financial reporting and, depending on
our future growth, may require our independent registered public accounting firm to annually attest to our evaluation, as well as issue
its own opinion on our internal controls over financial reporting. The process of implementing and maintaining proper internal controls
and complying with Section 404 is expensive and time consuming. We cannot be certain that the measures we will undertake will ensure that
that we will maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Furthermore, if we are able to rapidly grow
grow our business, the internal controls that we will need may become more complex, and significantly more resources will be required
to ensure
our internal controls remain effective. Failure to implement required controls or difficulties encountered in their implementation could
could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. If we or our auditors discover a material weakness
in our internal controls, the disclosure of that fact, even if the weakness is quickly remedied, could diminish investors’ confidence
in our financial statements and harm our stock price. In addition, non-compliance with Section 404 could subject us to a variety of administrative
sanctions, including the suspension of trading, ineligibility for future listing on one of the Nasdaq Stock Markets or national securities
exchanges, and the inability of registered broker-dealers to make a market in our Common Stock, which may reduce our stock price.

OurCyPath®
Lung, our first commercial diagnostic test, CyPath® Lung, addresses the need for noninvasive detection of early-stage lung cancer.cancer by detecting lung cancer as early as curative Stage 1A. Lung cancer is
the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Physicians order CyPath® Lung to assist in their assessment of
patients patients
who are at high risk for lung cancer. The CyPath® Lung test enables physicians to more confidently identify
patients who
will likely benefit from timely intervention and more invasive follow-up procedures and those who are likely without
lung cancer and
should continue routine screening. CyPath® Lung has the potential to increase overall diagnostic
accuracy of lung cancer,
which could lead to increased survival, fewer unnecessary invasive procedures, reduced patient anxiety, and
lower medical costs.
Commercial

assets of Village Oaks Pathology Services, P.A., a Texas professional association d/b/a Precision Pathology Services, that included
the the
CAP-accredited and CLIA-certified commercial laboratory it owned. We now own and operate the clinical anatomic and clinical pathology
laboratory. CyPath® Lung is offered for sale to physicians by PPLS.
Research and development of our diagnostic tests in the pipeline and advancement of our therapeutic discoveries have been conducted at leased laboratory space at The University of Texas at San Antonio. We plan to move our research and development efforts to privately owned laboratory space in the second quarter 2026.

Targeted
Strategic Actions
In
March 2025, we announced targeted strategic actions to improve financial
performance and accelerate the commercial growth of CyPath® Lung, taking steps to deliver approximately $4 million in annual cost
savings at our subsidiary PPLS, while increasing resources to expand CyPath® Lung sales in high-potential national markets. Specifically,
cost savings are a result of labor cost reductions, operational efficiency enhancements, and discontinuing certain pathology services
with suboptimal profit margins to focus on high-margin services such as CyPath® Lung and by discontinuing certain pathology
services with suboptimal profit margins.
All share and per-share amounts in the accompanying footnotes have been retroactively adjusted to reflect our 1-for-30 reverse stock split, which occurred on September 18, 2025.
In October 2025, we entered into definitive agreements for the purchase and sale of 720,000 shares of Common Stock, at a purchase price of $2.50 per share in a registered direct offering priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules. The gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $1.8 million before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by us.
On September 29, 2025, we consummated a best efforts public offering of an aggregate of (i) 1,047,694 shares of Common Stock and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 874,067 shares of Common Stock in lieu of shares of Common Stock. Each share was sold at a public offering price of $2.50. Each pre-funded warrant was sold at a public offering price of $2.493. The total gross proceeds for the transaction were approximately $4.8 million.
On August 13, 2025, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional and accredited investors, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell in a private placement (i) 990 shares of our newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, with a par value $0.001 per share and stated value of $1,000 per share, for gross proceeds to us of $990,000, which were initially convertible into 143,476 shares of our Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $6.90 per share and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 223,824 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $10.56 per share of Common Stock.
On May 7, 2025, the Company completed a public offering of securities for gross proceeds to the Company of $3.25 million, before deducting agent fees and other estimated expenses payable by the company. The offering consisted of 338,541 shares of our Common Stock, of which 79,044 were pre-funded warrants, together with warrants to purchase up to 507,812 shares of Common Stock, at a combined offering price for each share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) and accompanying warrant of $9.60 per share. The warrants have an exercise price of $10.56 per share and have certain provisions that allow for additional shares to be issued in the event of a reverse split of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, the warrants include an anti-dilution adjustment which is subject to stockholder approval.
On
February 26, 2025, pursuant to the terms of a warrant
inducement agreement (the “February Inducement Agreement”), we entered into with certain holders of existing warrants dated
February 25, 2025, such holders exercised for cash
(i) October Warrantswarrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,302,08243,402 shares of Common Stock,Stock issued
on August 5, 2024 (the “August Warrants”), at the reduced exercise price of $0.58$17.40 per share,
and (ii) August Warrantswarrants to purchase
an aggregate of up to 1,136,39137,878 shares of Common Stock,Stock issued on October 21, 2024 (the “October Warrants”), at the reduced exercise
price of $0.58$17.40 per
share. We received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1.4 million, before deducting advisory fees and other
expenses payable
by us.it. In consideration of the immediate exercise of the October Warrants and August Warrants by the holders thereof
in accordance with
the February Inducement Agreement, we issued unregistered common warrants (the “February Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate
of up to 2,926,166 97,538
shares of Common Stock (120% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the October Warrants
and August Warrants)
to such holders.
We
agreed in the February Inducement Agreement to file a registration statement to register the resale of the shares of Common Stock (the
“February Warrant Shares”) issuable upon exercise of the February Warrants (the “Resale Registration Statement”)
as soon as practicable (and in any event within 45 calendar days following the date of the Inducement Agreement), and to use commercially
reasonable efforts to have the Resale Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC and to keep such registration statement effective
at all times until the Holders no longer own any February Warrants or February Warrant Shares.
On
October 21, 2024, we issued to certain institutional investors (i) in a
registered direct offering, 2,048,294 shares of our Common Stock, and (ii) in a concurrent private placement (the “October Private
Placement”), common warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,662,782 shares of Common Stock, with an exercise price of $1.50, pursuant
to a securities purchase agreement, dated October 18, 2024, that we entered into with such institutional investors, and received aggregate
gross proceeds from the offerings of approximately $2.7 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. The
common warrants issued in the October Private Placement became exercisable on December 20, 2024, the date that our stockholders approved
the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, and expire on December 19, 2029.
We
have never been profitable, and as of December 31, 2024,2025, we had a working capital deficitsurplus of $0.4$4.7 million and an accumulated deficit
deficit of approximately $53.6$68.6 million. We expect to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future as we continue
continue the development of our diagnostic tests and advance our diagnostic tests through clinical trials; however, we do expect
revenue to increase
due to accelerating sales of CyPath® Lung and cost-saving measures we recently instituted at
PPLS. We intend to seek strategic
partners for our therapeutic discoveries related to selective broad-spectrum cancer treatments
through pre-clinical and clinical development.
Since acquisition of the clinical pathology laboratory on September 19, 2023, additional revenue streams have been consolidated. PPLS generates three sources of revenue: (1) patient service fees, (2) histology service fees, and (3) medical director fees. The Company recognizes as revenue the amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for goods sold or services rendered primarily upon completion of the testing process (when results are reported) or when services have been rendered.
Post-acquisition,
additional revenue streams have been generated starting September 19, 2023. PPLS generates three sources of revenue: (1) patient service
fees, (2) histology service fees, and (3) medical director fees. Pre-acquisition, bioAffinity Technologies’ revenue was generated
in three ways: (1) royalties from our diagnostic test, CyPath® Lung, (2) clinical
flow cytometry services provided to Village Oaks related to CyPath® Lung test, and (3) CyPath®
Lung tests purchased by the U.S. Department of Defense (“DOD”) for an observational study, “Detection of Abnormal
Respiratory Cell Populations in Lung Cancer Screening Patients Using the CyPath® Lung Assay (NCT05870592),” and
research and development on using bronchoalveolar lavage fluid as a biological sample to assess cardiopulmonary function and exercise
performance in military personnel post-COVID-19 infection. The royalty income from CyPath® Lung and clinical flow cytometry
services income, beginning September 19, 2023, are related party income, and therefore, eliminated from consolidated net revenues. See
net revenue summarized in the table below.
Operating
expenses totaled $18.3$16.7 million and $10.5$18.3 million for the years ended December 31, 20242025 and 2023,2024, respectively. The increasedecrease in operating

of the following factors.
Our

(ii) in a concurrent private placement, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 450,000 shares of Common Stock, with an exercise price of
$1.50. We received aggregate gross proceeds from the offerings of approximately $450,000, before deducting fees payable to the placement
agent and other estimated offering expenses.
March 2024 Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent
Private Placement On March 8, 2024, we issued to certain investors, pursuant to a Securities
Purchase Agreement (1) 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock in a registered direct offering, and (2) warrants to purchase an aggregate
of 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $1.64, in a concurrent private placement. The direct offering
resulted in gross proceeds of $2.5 million.
We
have incurred losses since our inception in 2014 as a result of significant expenditures for operations and research and development
and, prior to April 2022, the lack of any approved diagnostic test or therapeutic products to generate revenue. During 20242025 and 2023,2024,
we had net losses of $9.0$14.9 million and $7.9$9.0 million, respectively, and we expect to incur substantial additional losses in future periods.
We have an accumulated deficit of approximately $53.6$68.6 million as of December 31, 2024.2025. Based on our current expected level of operating
expenditures and the cash
on hand of approximately $390$4.0 thousandmillion at the time of this filing, management concludes that there is substantial
doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve (12) months subsequent to the issuance of the
accompanying consolidated
financial statements. Without funding from the proceeds of a capital raise or strategic relationship or grant,
management anticipates
that our cash resources are sufficient to continue operations through AprilJune 2025.2026.
Cash
and cash equivalents were approximately
$1.1 $6.4 million as of December 31, 2024, which does not take into account the gross proceeds of $1.4 million that we received in February
2025. We need to raise further capital through the sale of additional
equity or debt securities or other debt instruments, strategic
relationships or grants, or through exercised outstanding warrants to
support our future operations. Our business plan includes expansion
for our commercialization efforts which will require additional funding.
If we are unable to improve our liquidity position, we may not
be able to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going
concern is dependent upon our ability to generate revenue
and raise capital from financing transactions. There can be no assurance that
we will be successful in accomplishing these objectives.
Net
cash used in operating activities was approximately $7.3$9.3 million and $6.0$7.3 million for the years ended December 31, 20242025 and 2023,2024, respectively.
The increase of approximately $1.3$2.0 million
in cash used by operations during the years ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same

We used approximately $79,000 in investing activities for the year ended December
31, 2024, compared to $2.2 million used for the year ended December 31, 2023. The significant decrease of $1.4 million in cash used in
investing activities was primarily due to equipment purchases in the current year, and the investing activities in the prior year related
to the acquisition of PPLS.
Cash provided in financing activities was approximately $14.7 million compared to cash provided by financing activities of approximately $5.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in proceeds from prior year was primarily related to net proceeds from the equity transactions of $15.1 million offset by payments for loans and finance leases of $0.4 million, compared to the prior year of equity transactions of $5.8 million offset by payments for loans and finance leases of approximately $0.2 million.
During
the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $5.5 million as compared to net cash
used in financing activities of $0.3 million during 2023, representing an increase of approximately $5.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities
was primarily due to net proceeds of approximately $5.8 million from issuance of Common Stock and, option and warrant exercises,
partially offset by financing payments.

Prior
to 2022, we had not generated any revenue. During the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we generated revenue of approximately $1.4$2.9 million,
and $6.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Even
if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our failure to
become and remain profitable would depress our value and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, maintain the
research and development efforts, diversify our diagnostic tests and therapeutic product offerings, or even continue ouroperations. operations.
A decline
in our value could also cause you to lose all or part of your investment.
As
of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $72.2$75.6 million and $3.1$2.4 million cash on hand. As of MayAugust 4,3, 2025,2026, our cash and cash
equivalents were $1.7$1.0 million. Despite our recent financings, we will need to raise further capital through the sale of additional equity
or debt securities or other debt instruments, strategic relationships or grants, or other arrangements to support our future operations.
Our business plan includes expansion for our commercialization efforts which will require additional funding. If we are unable to improve
our liquidity position, we may not be able to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
our ability to generate revenue and raise capital from financing transactions. Without funding from the proceeds of a capital raise or
strategic relationship or grant, management anticipates that our cash resources are sufficient to continue operations through JuneAugust
2026. 2026.
Based on our current expected level of operating expenditures, current expected levels of revenue, and the cash and cash equivalents
on hand at MarchJune 31,30, 2026, of $3.1$2.4 million, management concludes that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern for a period of at least twelve (12) months subsequent to the issuance of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements contained in this Quarterly Report. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable
operations from the development of new business opportunities. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in accomplishing
these objectives. Without such additional capital, we may be required to curtail or cease operations and be required to realize our assets
and discharge our liabilities other than in the normal course of business which could cause investors to suffer the loss of all or a
substantial portion of their investment. WithumSmith+Brown, PC, our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2025, has included an explanatory paragraph in its opinion that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements
as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, indicating that our current liquidity position raises substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern.
We have received a notice of delisting from Nasdaq due to our failure to maintain the minimum bid price requirement, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance or maintain our listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
On July 30, 2026, we received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that the bid price of our listed securities had closed at less than $1.00 per share over the previous thirty consecutive business days, and that, as a result, we are not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv), we are not eligible for the standard 180-calendar day compliance period because we effected a 1-for-30 reverse stock split on September 19, 2025, which occurred within the prior one-year period.
We have submitted an appeal to Nasdaq and intend to present our plans to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement at a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). However, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant us any extension period within which to regain compliance, or that, if any such extension period is granted, we will be able to regain compliance within such period.
If we are unable to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or otherwise satisfy Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements, our securities could be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. A delisting of our securities could have material adverse consequences, including, but not limited to: a limited availability of market quotations for our securities; reduced liquidity for our securities, making it more difficult for stockholders to buy or sell our securities; a determination that our common stock is a “penny stock,” which would require brokers trading in our common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities; a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future; potential loss of confidence by investors, employees, and business partners; and potential negative reputational effects that could impair our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
In addition, we may be required to take actions to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, such as effecting an additional reverse stock split, which could result in further dilution to our stockholders and may not result in a sustained increase in the per-share price of our common stock. We previously effected a 1-for-30 reverse stock split on September 19, 2025, and there can be no assurance that any future reverse stock split, if undertaken, would result in a lasting increase in the market price of our common stock sufficient to regain or maintain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
We
are currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). If we are unable to maintain listing of our securities on Nasdaq
or any stock exchange, our stock price could be adversely affected and the liquidity of our stock and our ability to obtain financing
could be impaired and it may be more difficult for our stockholders to sell their securities.
Although
our Common Stock is currently listed on Nasdaq and we are in compliance with the exchange’s minimum listing requirement, we may
not be able to continue to meet Nasdaq’s minimum listing requirements or those of any other national exchange. The Listing Rules
of Nasdaq require listing issuers to comply with certain standards in order to remain listed on its exchange. If, for any reason, we
should fail to maintain compliance with these listing standards and Nasdaq should delist our securities from trading on its exchange
and we are unable to obtain listing on another national securities exchange, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each
of which could have a material adverse effect on our stockholders:

Data
as of and for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, has been derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements statements
appearing at the beginning of this Quarterly Report. Results for any interim period should not be construed as an inference

We develop noninvasive diagnostics to detect early-stage lung cancer and other diseases of the lung using flow cytometry and automated analysis developed by machine learning, a form of AI. Our commercial test, CyPath® Lung, is a noninvasive diagnostic that analyzes sputum using flow cytometry and automated analysis built with machine learning. Building on this proprietary platform, the Company is developing noninvasive tests to quantify lung inflammation with the aim of commercializing precision diagnostics to assist physicians when determining the most effective drug to prescribe patients with asthma and COPD. bioAffinity Technologies also is advancing its proprietary therapeutic discoveries, focusing on developing the dermal delivery of drugs developed by the Company containing self-delivering, stabilized siRNAs that selectively kill squamous and basal carcinoma cells while leaving non-cancerous cutaneous cells unharmed.

Recent Financings
On June 16, 2026, the Company consummated a best-efforts public offering of an aggregate of (i) 1,040,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.007 per share and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 2,960,000 shares of Common Stock in lieu of shares. Each share was sold at a public offering price of $0.80. Each pre-funded warrant was sold at a public offering price of $0.793. The aggregate gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $3.2 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2026, 1,000,000 of the prefunded warrants had been exercised.
To
date, we have devoted a substantial portion of our efforts and financial resources to the development of our diagnostic test, CyPath®
Lung. As a result, since our inception in 2014, we have funded our operations principally through private and public sales of our
equity, issuance of debt, and the exercise of outstanding warrants and stock options. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents
of $2.4 million. As of August 3, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.0 million. As of May 4, 2026, we had cash and
cash equivalents of $1.7$1.0 million, which we expect will support our operations
through JuneAugust 2026. We have incurred significant losses
and negative cash flows from operations since inception and expect to continue
to incur losses and negative cash flows for the foreseeable
future. Based on the Company’s current expected level of operating
expenditures and the cash and cash equivalents on hand at March
31,June 30, 2026, management concludes that there is substantial doubt about the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a
period of at least twelve (12) months subsequent to the issuance of the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Prior
to acquisition of the clinical pathology laboratory by PPLS, Village Oaks, under the trade name Precision Pathology Services, had licensed
and developed CyPath® Lung as a laboratory developed test (“LDT”) for sale to physicians. The license agreement
provided that revenues from the sale would be split evenly between the Company and Village Oaks. In the second quarter of 2022, prior
to the acquisition, we started to recognize revenue as part of a limited beta market testing program of the CyPath® Lung
test. We have never been profitable, and as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had a working capital of approximately $1.2 million and an accumulated
deficit of approximately $72.2$75.6 million. We expect to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future as we
continue the development of our diagnostic tests and advance our diagnostic tests through clinical trials.
Three
Months Ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, Compared to Three Months Ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025
Net

Net revenue totaled approximately $1.5 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Consolidated revenue increased approximately $0.2 million, or 19%, to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily as a result of growth in CyPath® Lung testing revenue, partially offset by the Company’s targeted strategic actions taken in March 2025 to discontinue certain unprofitable pathology services. CyPath® Lung testing revenue increased approximately $321,000, or 210%, to $474,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $153,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as a result of a total of 622 test results delivered for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 197 tests for the three months ended June 30, 2025
Net
revenue totaled approximately $1.4 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease
is attributable to discontinuing certain unprofitable pathology services to focus on high-margin services in March 2025, partially offset by an increase in revenue attributable to our CyPath® Lung diagnostic test.
Operating
expenses totaled approximately $5.0$4.8 million and $4.5$3.8 million forduring the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The
increase increase
in operating expenses is the result of the following factors:
Our
direct costs and expenses areconsist primarily of direct labor for pathology services, laboratory supplies and reagents, laboratory equipment,
and allocated shared facilities. Direct costs and expenses totaled $0.9$1.1 million and $1.4$1.0 million during the three months ended MarchJune 30,

(MCCRP), a research program within the Department of Surgery at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda,
Maryland.
Selling,
general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $3.2$2.9 million and $2.5$2.2 million for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and

Depreciation
and amortization expenses totaled $115,000$62,000 and $155,000$113,000 for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease
of approximately 40,000,$51,000, or 26%,46%, for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025 was primarily attributable
to the termination of a financing lease in April 2025 due to the Company’s targeted strategic actions announced in March 2025.
Total other income (expense), net totaled approximately ($30,000) and ($1.5 million) for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in the total other expenses of approximately $1.5 million is mostly attributable to the remeasurement of warrant liability and offering costs related to the May 2025 public offering.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2026, Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was approximately $7.0 million, compared to a net loss of approximately $6.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Revenue
PPLS generates three sources of revenue: (1) patient service fees, (2) histology service fees, and (3) medical director fees. The Company recognizes as revenue the amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for goods sold or services rendered primarily upon completion of the testing process (when results are reported) or when services have been rendered.
1 Patient services fees include direct billing for CyPath® Lung diagnostic tests and anatomical testing and pathology services wholly unrelated to CyPath® Lung. Revenues for 2025 include PPLS anatomical services discontinued in March 2025 due to unprofitability.
Consolidated revenue decreased approximately $0.3 million, or 8%, to approximately $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily as a result of the Company’s targeted strategic actions to discontinue certain unprofitable pathology services, offset by continuing to drive sales growth for CyPath® Lung. CyPath® Lung testing revenue increased approximately $512,000, or 159%, to $835,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $323,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as a result of a total of approximately 1,100 test results delivered for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to approximately 400 tests for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses totaled approximately $9.8 million and $8.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in operating expenses is the result of the following factors:
InterestDirect
incomecosts (expense)and expenses
Our direct costs and expenses consist primarily of direct labor for pathology services, laboratory supplies and reagents, laboratory equipment, and allocated shared facilities. Direct costs and expenses totaled approximately $2.0 million and $2.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease of approximately $0.4 million, or 15%, for 2026 compared to 2025 was primarily attributable to the targeted strategic actions which occurred in March 2025, aimed at streamlining operations and reducing costs related to our lab operations, partially offset by increases attributable to the addition of personnel to process tests related to the sale of CyPath® Lung and to our clinical study.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses consist primarily of expenditures for laboratory operations, preclinical and clinical studies, compensation, and consulting costs.
Research and development expenses totaled $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. While there was no significant change, we expect that research and development expenses will increase as we develop our flow cytometry platform to address the need to identify patients who may benefit from existing and emerging therapies for asthma and COPD with noninvasive precision diagnostic tests and research pertaining to the dermal delivery of drugs developed by the Company containing self-delivering, stabilized siRNAs that selectively kill squamous and basal carcinoma cells while leaving non-cancerous cutaneous cells unharmed..
Clinical Development
Clinical development expenses totaled approximately $0.8 million and $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase of approximately $0.5 million, or 203%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025 was primarily attributable to an increase in professional fees in 2026 related to managing our clinical strategy for our clinical trial that began in March 2026, as well as costs to open 11 clinical trial sites that have begun patient enrollment as of June 30, 2026.
Selling, General and Administrative
Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of expenditures related to employee compensation, selling and marketing costs, legal, accounting and tax, and other professional services, and general operating expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $6.1 million and $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our selling, general and administrative cost increase was primarily attributable to an increase in employee compensation related to stock compensation, administrative and sales due to additional personnel and support services to support the growth of sales of our diagnostic test, CyPath® Lung.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses totaled approximately $176,000 and $268,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease of approximately $92,000, or 34%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025 was primarily attributable to the termination of a financing lease in April 2025 due to the Company’s targeted strategic actions announced in March 2025.
Interest
expense of approximately $5,000 and $14,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, decreased in the current
year due to the interest recognized related to the financing lease for laboratory equipment compared to the same period in the prior
year, partially offset by a decrease in interest income earned on cash balances.
Total other income (expense), net totaled approximately ($45,000) and ($1.5 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in the total other expenses of approximately $1.5 million is mostly attributable to the remeasurement of warrant liability and offering costs related to the May 2025 public offering.
Other
expense totaled $8,938 and $9,640 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The balance remained relatively consistent
when comparing the same periods year over year.
To
date, we have funded our operations primarily
from the private and public sales ofthrough our equity,IPO, exercise of stock options and warrants, and the issuancesale of debt,our securities,
resulting in gross
proceeds of approximately $58.2$61.4 million. We have evaluated whether there are conditions and events that raise substantial
doubt about
our ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year after the date the condensed consolidated financial statements
are issued.
We
have incurred losses since our inception in 2014 as a result of significant expenditures for operations and research and development
and, prior to April 2022, the lack of any approved diagnostic test or therapeutic products to generate revenue. For the threesix months ended
endedJune March 31,30, 2026 and 2025, we had net losses of $3.6$7.0 million and $2.7$6.7 million, respectively, and we expect to incur substantial additional
losses in future periods. We have an accumulated deficit of approximately $72.2$75.6 million as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026. Despite our recent financing
in 2025,June 2026 in which we raised gross proceeds of $3.2 million, we believe our current cash and anticipated revenue from operations will
not be sufficient to support our operations through June
August 2026. Based on our current expected level of operating expenditures, current
expected levels of revenue, and the cash and cash equivalents
on hand at MarchJune 31,30, 2026, of $3.0$2.4 million, management concludes that there
is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern for a period of at least twelve (12) months subsequent to the issuance
of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements contained in this Quarterly Report. We need to raise further
capital through the sale of additional equity or debt securities
or other debt instruments, strategic relationships or grants, or through
exercised outstanding warrants to support our future operations
unless our revenue increases significantly. Our business plan includes
expansion for our commercialization efforts which will require
additional funding. If we are unable to improve our liquidity position,
we may not be able to continue as a going concern. Our ability
to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate
revenue and raise capital from financing transactions. There
can be no assurance that we will be successful in accomplishing these objectives.
Net
cash used in operating activities was approximately $3.2$6.4 million and $1.6$4.3 million for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and
2025, respectively.
The increase of approximately $1.6$2.4 million in cash used by operations during the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,
30, 2026, compared to the same
period in 2025 was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately$0.3 $970,000million in our loss from

We
enter into contracts in the normal course of business with third-party contract organizations for clinical trials and other services
and products used for research and development and operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination following a
certain period after notice, and therefore we believe that any non-cancelablenon-cancellable obligations under these agreements are not material.
We
follow accounting considerations of CECL - Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on
Financial Instruments. With the acquisition of PPLS and control of Village Oaks, the Company’s board-certified pathologists
provide anatomic and clinical pathology services for patients and other customers. The Company’s other customer types include contract
research organizations (“CRO’sCROs”), hospitals, and independent laboratories. The majority of the Company’s revenues stem
from fees for services provided to patients, and thus, in those arrangements, the patient is the customer, although the services may
be requested by a physician on the patient’s behalf. Furthermore, in addition to its contracts with patients, the Company separately
contracts with third-party payors (insurance companies and governmental payors), who are typically responsible for all or the majority
of the fees agreed upon for such services provided to patients. Historically, material amounts of gross charges are not collected due
to various agreements with insurance companies, capped pricing levels for government payorspayors, and uncollectible balances from individual
payers. To estimate these allowances of credit losses, the Company assesses the portfolio risk segments and historical data on collection
rates. These estimated allowances offset patient revenues and accounts receivables.
We
follow Leases (“ASC 842”).842, Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued Topic ASC 842, under which a lessee is required to recognize
most leases
on its balance sheet. The Company has elected to apply a third-party valuation incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”)
as the
discount rate by class of underlying assets when the rate is not implicit in the lease.
