Reworded

The EPA granted registration approval for ContraPest effective August 2, 2016, and as of July 12, 2018, we havehad received registration for ContraPest in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and two major U.S. territories, Puerto Rico and The U.S. Virgin Islands. Evolve,Evolve Rat and Evolve Mouse, as aminimum FIFRArisk pesticides under Section 25(b) minimumof riskFIFRA, pesticide, doesdo not require federal registration with the EPA but isare in the process of being registered in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and fivetwo major U.S. territories. ToAs date,of the date hereof, we are authorized to sell Evolve Rat in 48 states,states and two major U.S. territories, Puerto Rico and TheEvolve U.S.Mouse Virginin Islands.37 states and territories. However, we have not yet had significant sales of ContraPest and Evolve, which are our only products to date that are available for commercialization and the generation of revenue.

Reworded

Market acceptance of our products and any of our product candidates for which we receive approval depends on a number of factors, including the following:

Reworded

•the potential and perceived advantages of our products and product candidates over alternative or complementary products;

Reworded

•the efficacy and safety of such products and product candidates as demonstrated in trials;

Reworded

•the uses, indications or limitations for which the product and product candidate isare approved;

Reworded

•favorable or unfavorable publicity relating to the product.

Reworded

If any of our products or future approved product candidates fail to achieve sufficient market acceptance, we will not be able to generate significantsufficient revenues orto become profitable. The commercial success of ContraPest and Evolve will depend on a number of factors, including the following:

Reworded

•convincing PMPscustomers to deploy ContraPest and Evolve in quantity as an enhancement to, or replacement of, their current strategy of rodenticide use;

Reworded

•a continued acceptable safety profile of Evolve and ContraPest.

Reworded

Commercialization of ContraPest and Evolve and developing further product candidates, including conducting experiments and field studies, obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval and commercializing any products approved for sale, is a time-consuming, expensive and uncertain process that takes years to complete. We expect our expenses to continue and to increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance our commercialization activities. We may expand our operations, and as a result of many factors, some of which may be currently unknown to us, our expenses may be higher than expected. Securing additional financing may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize our products and product candidates, including ContraPest and Evolve. In addition, we cannot guarantee that future financing will be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we may be required to take certain actions, including the following:

Reworded

•significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development or commercialization of our products and product candidates, including ContraPest and Evolve;

Reworded

If we are unable to establish and maintain an effective sales force and marketing and distribution infrastructures, or enter into and rely upon acceptable third-party relationships, we may be unable to generate anysufficient revenue.revenues to become profitable.

Reworded

We are currently operating in a period of economic uncertainty, which has been significantly impacted by geopolitical instability, inflation, increases in interest rates, and other disruptions in credit and financial marktets.markets.

Reworded

Economic downturns may adversely affect our customers. If consumers restrict their discretionary expenditures, due to inflation or other economic hardships, we may suffer a decline in revenue. Disruptions in credit or financial markets could make it more difficult for us to obtain, or increase the cost of obtaining, financing in the future. Increases in interest rates may cause a reduction in spending, which could result in a decrease in revenue. WeOur business may be impacted by geopolitical tensionsevents, including military conflicts, threatened hostilities, conflicts or heightened tension among alliance countries and conflicts,other includinggeopolitical changes to trade policies and regulations, such as tariffs.conflicts. In addition, therematerials sourced from suppliers located outside the U.S. have or may become subject to tariffs under U.S. trade policies. There can be no assurances that fuel prices, raw material costs, or other operating costs, all of which may be subject to inflationary pressures, will not materially increase in future years.

Added

We could be required to collect additional sales, value added or similar taxes or be subject to other tax liabilities that may increase the costs our clients would have to pay for our products and adversely affect our results of operations.

Added

We collect sales, value added or similar indirect taxes in a number of jurisdictions. An increasing number of states have adopted laws that attempt to impose sales tax collection obligations on out-of-state companies. Similarly, many foreign jurisdictions have considered or adopted laws that impose taxes on companies despite not having a physical presence in the foreign jurisdiction. A successful assertion by one or more states, or foreign jurisdictions, requiring us to collect taxes where we presently do not do so, or to collect more taxes in a jurisdiction in which we currently do collect some taxes, could result in substantial tax liabilities, including taxes on past sales, as well as penalties and interest. This could also create additional administrative burdens for us, put us at a competitive disadvantage if they do not impose similar obligations on our competitors, and decrease our future sales, which could harm our business and results of operations.

Reworded

Regulatory approval processes of the EPAEPA, state and comparable foreign regulatory authorities are lengthy, time-consuming and unpredictable, and if we are ultimately unable to obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates, our business may fail.

Reworded

TheRegulatory EPA review processapproval for a product with one or more new active ingredients typically takes approximately two years to complete and approval is never guaranteed. In addition, we continue to seek approvals to expand labels and use designations for ContraPest to broaden its marketmarkets and usability. Our efforts could fail to receive approval from the EPA, with respect to ContraPest or our product candidates, or from a comparable foreign regulatory authorityauthorities for many reasons, including the following:

Added

•disagreement over whether a product is exempted from registration requirements;

Removed

For instance, we have found it challenging to produce applicable stability test results for one of our active ingredients, due in part to the small quantity used in the final product and continue to work with the EPA to develop appropriate biological and/or chemical measurements for active ingredient stability. Because our data continues to demonstrate the long-term efficacy of ContraPest, we believe that the testing is a matter we will resolve.

Reworded

If the EPA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities become aware of new information after approval of ContraPest, Evolve, or any other product candidate, or if we are unable to adequately complete required testing and certification requirements, a number of potentially significant negative consequences could result, including the following:

Added

•products sold under the FIFRA minimum risk exemption could be deemed non-exempt by the EPA, potentially requiring additional compliance steps and uncertainty until such products receive further approvals;

Reworded

Any of these events could prevent us from achieving or maintaining market acceptance of the particular product or product candidate, if approved, and could significantly harm our business, results of operations and prospects.

Reworded

Even followingafter receipt ofreceiving any regulatory approval or introduction ofintroducing products or product candidates, we will continue to be subject to regulation of our manufacturing processes and advertising practices.

Reworded

In addition, the EPA strictly regulates the advertising and promotion of pest control products, and these pest control products may only be marketed or promoted for their EPA approvedEPA-approved uses, consistent with the product’s approved labeling. Advertising and promotion of any product candidate that obtains approval in the U.S.United States will be heavilysubject scrutinizedto heavy scrutiny by the EPA, other applicable state regulatory agenciesagencies, and the public. Violations, including promotion of our products for unapproved or off-label uses, are subject to enforcement actions, inquiries and investigations, and civil, criminal and/or administrative sanctions imposed by the EPA.

Reworded

To market and sell our products globally, we must obtain separate marketing approvals and comply with numerous and varying regulatory requirements. The approval procedure varies among countries and can involve additional testing. Obtaining foreign regulatory approvals and maintaining compliance with foreign regulatory requirements could result in significant delays, difficulties, and cost for us, and could delay or prevent the introduction of our products in certain countries. Approval by the EPA does not ensure approval by regulatory authorities in other countries or jurisdictions, but EPA approval may influence decisions by the foreign regulatory authority. If we are unable to obtain approval of our products or product candidates by regulatory authorities in the world market, the commercial prospects of that product candidate may be significantly diminished, and our business prospects could decline.

In addition, our manufacturing operations are currently concentrated in a single location, making them vulnerable to potential disruptions.

Reworded

In addition, if our manufacturing operations fail or are disrupted for any reason, including because of labor, disasters, and/or equipment malfunctions, among others, our ability to timely produce our products in a timely manner may be adversely affected, which would harm our sales and reputation. We only operate in a single location, which means we do not have back-upbackup facilities to produce our products during a time when our manufacturing facility becomes unavailable.

Reworded

We will need to expand our operations and grow the size of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.

Reworded

As of December 31, 2024,2025, we had 23 full-time employees.employees and one part-time employee. As our development and commercialization plans and strategies develop,develop and progress, we will need additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing, scientific and financial headcount and other resources. Our management, personnel, and systems currently in place may not be adequate to support this future growth. Future growth would impose significant added responsibilities on members of management, including the following:

Reworded

Business or supply chain disruptions could seriously harm our future revenues and financial condition and increase our costs and expenses, particularly because we have limited suppliers and a critical ingredient for ContraPest is currently sourced from China.expenses.

Removed

We currently use one supplier for each of our two active ingredients, triptolide and VCD. Our ability to produce our product candidates would be disrupted if the operations of these suppliers are affected by a man made or natural disaster or other business interruption. Because triptolide is sourced from China and other Asian countries, we have a greater risk of supply interruption, including as a result of tariff and trade disputes, or disruptive events like the outbreak of the Coronavirus, also known as COVID-19. The ultimate impact on our operations from any business interruption impacting us or any of our significant suppliers is unknown, but our operations and financial condition would likely suffer adverse consequences. Further, any significant uninsured liability may require us to pay substantial amounts, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows from future prospects.

Removed

We are dependent on triptolide, a key ingredient for ContraPest, which has limited sources and must be in a very refined condition.

Removed

If we are unable to develop additional sources of or alternatives to triptolide, a key ingredient for ContraPest, our long-term ability to produce ContraPest at a cost-effective price could be in jeopardy. If market demand for triptolide causes the price to increase beyond our ability to market at a competitive price or causes the quality of the refined ingredient to be less than needed for our production, our ability to commercialize ContraPest could be limited or delayed, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Reworded

A variety of risks associated with marketing our products and product candidates internationally could materially adversely affect our business.

Reworded

Reworded

With respect to patent rights, we do not know whether any of our pending patent applications for any of our technologies or products will result in the issuance of patents that protect such technologies or products, or if our licensed patent will effectively prevent others from commercializing competitive technologies and products. Our pending patent applications cannot be enforced against third parties practicing the technology claimed in such applications unless and until a patent issues from such applications. Further, the examination process may require us to narrow the claims for our pending patent applications, which may limit the scope of patent protection that may be obtained if these applications issue. Because the issuance of a patent is not conclusive as to its inventorship, scope, validityvalidity, or enforceability, issued patents that we own or have licensed from third parties may be challenged in the courts or patent offices in the U.S.United States and internationally. Such challenges may result in the loss of patent protection, the narrowing of claims in such patents, or the invalidity or unenforceability of such patents, which could limit our ability to stop others from using or commercializing similar or identical technology and products or limit the duration of the patent protection for our technology and products. Protecting against the unauthorized use of our patented technology, trademarkstrademarks, and other intellectual property rights,rights is expensive, difficult, and in some cases, may not be possible. In some cases, it may be difficult or impossible to detect third partythird-party infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights, even in relation to issued patent claims, and proving any such infringement may be even more difficult.

Reworded

•issued patents that we own or have exclusively licensed may not provide us with any competitive advantages, or may be held invalid or unenforceable, as a result of legal challenges by our competitors;

Reworded

•our competitors might conduct research and development activities in the U.S.United States and other countries that provide a safe harbor from patent infringement claims for certain research and development activities, as well as in countries where we do not have patent rights and then use the information learned from such activities to develop competitive products for sale in our major commercial markets;

Reworded

Our technology may be found to infringe third partythird-party intellectual property rights.

Reworded

Third parties may in the future assert claims or initiate litigation related to their patent, copyright, trademarktrademark, and other intellectual property rights in technology that is important to us. The asserted claims and/or litigation could include claims against us, our licensors, or our suppliers alleging infringement of intellectual property rights with respect to our product candidates or components of those products. Regardless of the merit of the claims, they could be time consuming,time-consuming, resulting in costly litigation and diversion of technical and management personnel, or require us to develop non-infringing technology or enter into license agreements. We cannot assure you that licenses will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Furthermore, because of the potential for significant damage awards, whichthat are not necessarily predictable, it is not unusual to find even arguably unmeritorious claims resulting in large settlements. If any infringement or other intellectual property claim made against us by any third party is successful, or if we fail to develop non-infringing technology or license the proprietary rights on commercially reasonable terms and conditions, our business, operating resultsresults, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Removed

For example, we have become aware that we were involved in a transaction in which an investor of the Company may have resold approximately 17,500 shares of our common stock pursuant to a registration statement that had not yet been declared effective by the SEC. As a result, it is possible that the SEC could bring an action against us, or we may ultimately be responsible for an action for rescission by purchasers of the securities that were resold. If the SEC were to bring such an enforcement action against us, or if purchasers were to bring such an action for rescission, it may have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

Large judgments have been awarded in class action lawsuits basedarising onfrom products that had unanticipated side effects, including, without limitation, any potential adverse effects of our products on humans or other species. A successful product liability claim or series of claims brought against us, particularly if judgments exceed our insurance coverage, could decrease our cash and adversely affect our business.

We are making sales through e-Commerce tools, that depend on information technology systems and networks. We are also responsible for storing, processing, transmitting, and protecting data relating to our business, customers, and employees, including personal and other confidential or sensitive information. We also rely on third-party vendors for the storage, processing, and transmission of personal and confidential information. The legal and regulatory landscape is rapidly evolving and uncertain in the areas of consumer protection, intellectual property, Artificial Intelligence, cybersecurity, and privacy and data protection. Our data processing activities subject us to numerous data privacy and security obligations, such as various laws, regulations, guidance, industry standards, external and internal privacy and security policies, contractual requirements, and other obligations relating to data privacy and security. In the United States, federal, state, and local governments have enacted numerous data privacy and security laws, including data breach notification laws, personal data privacy laws, consumer protection laws (e.g. Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act), comprehensive consumer data privacy laws (e.g., the California Consumer Privacy Act) and other similar laws. Outside the United States, an increasing number of laws, regulations, and industry standards govern data privacy and security. For example, the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“EU GDPR”), the United Kingdom’s GDPR (“UK GDPR”) (collectively, “GDPR”). Under the GDPR, companies may face temporary or definitive bans on data processing, other corrective actions, significant fines, or private litigation.

Risks Related to our Capital Stock, FundingFunding, and Trading in our Stock

Reworded

Investment in product development is highly speculative because it entails substantial upfront capital expenditures and significant risk that any potential product candidate will fail to become commercially viable or gain regulatory approval. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securitiessecurities, including warrants exercises, and debtproduct financings as well as research grants.sales. We have not generated sufficient revenue from product sales to date to achieve profitability. We continue to incur significant sales, marketing, research, development and other expenses related to our ongoing operations. As a result, we are not profitable and have incurred losses in every reporting period since our inception. For the years ended December 31, 20242025 and 2023,2024, we reported net losses of $6.2$6.4 million and $7.7$6.2 million, respectively.

We may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays, and other unknown factors that may adversely affect our financial condition. Our prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our financial condition. If our products or product candidates do not gain or maintain sufficient regulatory approval, or if approved, failsfail to achieve market acceptance, we may never become profitable. Even if we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Our failure to become and remain profitable would decrease the value of our company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, diversify our product offerings or continue our operations. A decline in the company’s value of our company could cause you to lose all or part of your investment.

We believe the market opportunity for non-poison rodent control remains significant and growing, driven by regulatory restrictions on traditional rodenticides and increasing demand for safer, sustainable pest-management alternatives. Our near-term priorities are to further scale our Evolve product family, expand e-commerce and retail and professional distribution channels, and strengthen our path to profitability.

Since our inception, we have sustained significant operating losses in the course of our research and development activities and commercialization efforts and expect such losses to continue for the near future. We have generated limited revenue to date from product sales, research grants and licensing fees received under a former license. We have primarily funded our operations to date through the sale of equity securities, including convertible preferred stock, common stock and warrants to purchase common stock; and debt financing, consisting primarily of convertible notes.

Removed

Through December 31, 2024, we had received net proceeds of $94.6 million from our sales of common stock, preferred stock and issuance of convertible and other promissory notes, an aggregate of $1.7 million from research grants and licensing fees and an aggregate of $5.6 million in product sales. At December 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $136.1 million and cash and cash equivalents of $1.3 million.

Removed

We have incurred significant operating losses every year since our inception. Our net losses were $6.2 million and $7.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and generate operating losses for at least the next 12 months.

Removed

We will need additional funding to continue to fund our operations, achieve profitability and become cash flow positive, we will continue to seek additional financing. If such equity or debt financing is not available at adequate levels or on acceptable terms, we may need to delay, limit or terminate commercialization and development efforts or discontinue operations.

We have historically utilized, and intend to continue to utilize, various forms of stock-based awards in order to hire, retain and motivate talented employees, consultants and directors and encourage them to devote their best efforts to our business and financial success. In addition, we believe that our ability to grant stock-based awards is a valuable and necessary compensation tool that aligns the long-term financial interests of our employees, consultants and directors with the financial interests of our stockholders. As a result, a significant portion of our operating expenses includes stock-based compensation expense. Stock-based compensation expense has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in our business and an important part of our compensation strategy. Specifically, our stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $326,000 and $555,000, respectively, which represented 4.5% and 6.7%, respectively, of our total operating expenses for those periods.

The $664,000,$364,000, or 56%,20%, increase in 20242025 was driven by theincreasing launchunit ofdemand for our latest Evolve product offerings,products, partially offset by a decrease in the number of units sold of our existing ContraPest product offerings. Launched in January 2024, and expanded during 2024 with variations in product offerings, Evolve is a soft bait containing the active ingredient, cottonseed oil, and represented approximately 81%, or $1.8 million, of revenue for 2025 compared to 66%, or $1.2 million, of revenue for 2024. Partially offsetting this increase was a decline in the revenue related to our ContraPest product offerings. Limited erosion of demand for ContraPest products is expected to continue as Evolve products are accepted in the marketplace. Also in 2024, we had a shift in our sales channels, with distributors representing approximately 34% of revenues compared to 9% in 2023.

Cost of sales, consisting primarily of the cost of products sold, including scrap and reserves for obsolescence, was $833,000, or 37.5% of net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with $853,000, or 45.9% of net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $654,000, or 54.8% of net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2023.2024.

The increase in our gross profit margin was driven by the shift in the mix of our products sold, and increased due to our latestEvolve product offering, Evolve,offerings, which launched in January 2024. Additionally, the 2024 gross profit margin was impacted by both the higher-than-expected cost of a key ingredient in our new Evolve product during the first quarter,quarter of 2024, combined with an increased proportion of our sales coming from distributors, who are offered a lower price due to the quantities purchased, while the 2023 gross profit margin was impacted by the higher cost of sales related to the scrapping of defective tanks no longer used in our products.purchased.

Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of costs incurred in connection with the research and development of ContraPest,our Evolve,products and our other product candidates. Such costs include the following:

Added

Research and development expenses were $1.7 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The decrease in 2025 as compared to 2024 was primarily due to cost containment efforts, including lower personnel costs resulting from changes in headcount, as well as lower consulting and legal fees required for research and development purposes. These savings were partially offset by increased transitional facility expenses associated with our April 2025 move to a new facility, and included $135,000 in non-cash operating lease costs. Additionally, supplies and maintenance costs were higher in 2025.

Removed

Research and development expenses were $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The $484,000 increase was primarily due to the realignment of the focus of our field development personnel to research and development activities, lower overhead allocation and increased costs related to the expansion of facilities and supplies and maintenance related to research and development efforts, combined with higher expenses overall related to field and product improvement studies in 2024 when compared with 2023. These increases were partially offset by lower consulting and legal fees required for research and development purposes.

Reworded

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in executive, finance, sales, marketing and administrative functions. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include free shipping offered in connection with marketing efforts, direct and allocated facility-related costscosts, franchise fees as well as professional fees for legal, consulting, accounting and audit services.

Added

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to higher legal fees related to an ongoing legal matter and totaled $631,000 in 2025. Additionally, franchise fees and corporate governance costs were higher in 2025 when compared with 2024. Overall, other operating expenses decreased as a result of our continued cost containment efforts.

Removed

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $7.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The $1.5 million decrease was primarily due to lower personnel-related expenses resulting from a lower headcount and stock-based compensation, the realignment of the focus of our field development personnel to research and development activities in early 2024 and severance costs incurred in 2023 related to the termination of our former Chief Revenue Officer, combined with lower professional fees and insurance costs. Legal fees were lower as a legal matter was settled at the end of 2023, consulting fees related to marketing efforts were lower due to changes in our overall marketing program, and our insurance costs were lower resulting from both policy and rate changes.

Reworded

Other income, net, consists of interest income and expense, as well as any gains or losses related to the sale of property and equipment and any other miscellaneous items. For the year ended December 31, 2025, other income, net consisted of interest income of $144,000, partially offset by interest expense of $22,000. For the year ended December 31, 2024, other income, net largely consisted of interest income of $56,000 and a gain on the sale of equipment of $28,000, partially offset by interest expense of $22,000.

Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses related to our research and development activities and commercialization efforts and expect such losses to continue for the near future. Through December 31, 2025, we had received net proceeds of $107.7 million primarily from the sales of our equity securities, including warrant exercises, an aggregate of $7.8 million in product sales, and an aggregate of $1.7 million from licensing fees. As of December 31, 2025, cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $8.6 million, compared to $1.3 million as of December 31, 2024. Net cash used in operations improved to $5.8 million in 2025, compared to $6.0 million in 2024 and from $7.6 million in 2023.

Added

Based upon our current operating plan, we expect that our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments as of December 31, 2025, in combination with anticipated revenue, will be sufficient to fund our current operations through approximately the second quarter of 2027. This estimate assumes continued execution of our current commercialization strategy, planned levels of operating expenses, and no significant changes in working capital requirements.

Added

Our projected cash runway does not assume the receipt of additional capital from equity issuances, debt financings, strategic partnerships, or other external sources. If revenue growth does not occur at anticipated levels, or if expenses exceed current expectations, we may be required to seek additional financing sooner that currently anticipated.

Added

We continue to evaluate various financing alternatives, including equity offerings under our existing ATM program, strategic partnerships, and other capital-raising transactions. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

Removed

Since our inception, we have sustained significant operating losses in the course of our research and development activities and commercialization efforts and expect such losses to continue for the near future. While we have generated $1.9 million of revenue in our most recent fiscal year, it is not sufficient to cover our base operating costs. We have primarily funded our operations to date through the sale of equity securities, including convertible preferred stock, common stock and warrants to purchase common stock; and debt financing, consisting primarily of convertible notes.

Removed

Through December 31, 2024, we had received net proceeds of $94.6 million from our sales of common stock, preferred stock and issuance of convertible and other promissory notes, an aggregate of $1.7 million from research grants and licensing fees and an aggregate of $5.6 million in product sales. At December 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $136.1 million and cash and cash equivalents of $1.3 million.

Our ultimate success depends upon the outcome of a combination of factors, including the following: (i) successful commercialization of ContraPest and Evolve and maintaining and obtaining regulatory approval of our products and product candidates; (ii) market acceptance, commercial viability and profitability of ContraPest, Evolve and other products; (iii) the ability to market our products and establish an effective sales force and marketing infrastructure to generate significant revenue; (iv) the success of our research and development; (v) the ability to retain and attract key personnel to develop, operate and grow our business; and (vi) our ability to meet our working capital needs.

Removed

Based upon our current operating plan, we expect that cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2024, in combination with anticipated revenue, will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next three months. We have evaluated and will continue to evaluate our operating expenses and will concentrate our resources toward the successful commercialization of ContraPest and Evolve in the United States, as well as internationally. However, if anticipated revenue targets and margin targets are not achieved or expenses are more than we have budgeted, we may need to raise additional financing before that time. If we need more financing, including within the next three months, and we are unable to raise the necessary capital through the sale of our securities, we may be required to take other measures that could impair our ability to be successful and operate as a going concern. In any event, we may require additional capital in order to fund our operating losses and research and development activities before we become profitable and may opportunistically raise capital. We may never achieve profitability or generate positive cash flows, and unless and until we do, we will continue to need to raise capital through equity or debt financing. If such equity or debt financing is not available at adequate levels or on acceptable terms, we may need to delay, limit or terminate commercialization and development efforts or discontinue operations.

Our current productsproduct focusofferings are focused on rat and mouse populations,population management and areconsist known as: ContraPest,of Evolve Rat, Evolve Mouse (collectively, “Evolve”), and Evolve Mouse.ContraPest.

Added

Our strategy is centered on three priorities: (i) strengthening our e-commerce business to build the Evolve brand, educate the market, and establish credibility for a new category of pest management products; (ii) expanding our direct business-to-business (“B2B”) operations through a professional sales organization focused on targeted vertical markets for both Evolve and ContraPest; and (iii) increasing our market opportunity through strategic partnerships, new products, and value-added services.

Added

During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, we continued to make meaningful progress executing this strategy. We completed the transition of our Amazon and Shopify operations to our direct management, improved gross margins, increased the contribution of Evolve to overall revenue, and continued to expand our commercial infrastructure across multiple sales channels. We believe these operational milestones demonstrate continued execution against our commercialization strategy and position the Company for potential future growth.

Added

We initially prioritized our e-commerce business by bringing our Amazon and Shopify operations under direct management, providing greater control over pricing, merchandising, customer relationships, and the overall customer experience. We believe these capabilities not only improve margins but also generate valuable customer insights, strengthen brand loyalty, and enhance our ability to drive recurring revenue through subscriptions and repeat purchases. As consumer awareness and adoption continue to grow, we believe our expanding base of customer reviews, subscriptions, and brand recognition will also support broader commercial adoption of our products.

Added

Building on this foundation, we are expanding our B2B business with a disciplined, vertical-market sales strategy targeting opportunities across commercial, government, pest management, agribusiness, retail, ecommerce, zoo and sanctuary, and international markets. Our ongoing commercialization investments—including expanding our professional sales organization, developing industry-specific sales materials, and creating value propositions and return-on-investment models—are designed to accelerate customer acquisition, deepen customer relationships, and support revenue growth across multiple end markets. These investments are distinct from one-time transition and leadership-related costs incurred during the year and reflect our long-term commitment to building a scalable commercial organization.

Added

In addition to product sales, we are developing assessment and implementation services that leverage proprietary AI technology, field data, and professional expertise to help B2B customers evaluate pest populations, optimize product deployment, and measure treatment effectiveness. We believe these value-added services create incremental revenue opportunities, strengthen customer relationships, and further differentiate SenesTech in the marketplace by expanding our role beyond product sales to become a strategic pest management partner.

Added

Management evaluates the progress of our commercialization strategy using several operating and financial indicators that we believe reflect the development of a scalable commercial business. These include growth in Evolve revenue, the mix of revenue generated through our direct-to-consumer channel, gross margin performance, repeat purchases and subscription activity, expansion of customer relationships across targeted commercial and government verticals, and adoption of our products and services by new customers. While these indicators may fluctuate from period to period, management believes that sustained improvement across these measures will lead to increasing market acceptance of our products and demonstrate continued execution of our commercialization strategy.

Added

We believe our integrated strategy of building consumer awareness, expanding commercial sales, and offering differentiated products and services positions the Company for sustainable long-term growth. The operational progress achieved during the quarter, combined with our continued commercialization investments, reinforces our confidence that we are executing our strategy as planned while creating opportunities for future revenue growth and margin expansion.

Removed

During 2025, we experienced strong growth in our Evolve product line, which now represents the majority of our total revenue, which has continued into the first quarter of 2026. Sales of Evolve Rat and Evolve Mouse increased across all major distribution channels, led by e-commerce, pest management professionals, and retail expansion. Our products are now available on retailer e-commerce sites, which we view as an important step toward broader brick-and-mortar retail availability.

Removed

Our focus remains on achieving sustainable revenue growth while progressing toward profitability. To that end, we continue to emphasize operational efficiency, manufacturing cost efficiencies, and sales channel optimization. Gross margins remain strong, reflecting the favorable economics of our Evolve products and improved manufacturing throughput.

Removed

We have also expanded our distribution reach and continued to support our international distribution partners as they introduce our fertility control technology to new markets.

Removed

We believe the market opportunity for non-poison rodent control remains significant and growing, driven by regulatory restrictions on traditional rodenticides and increasing demand for safer, sustainable pest-management alternatives. Our near-term priorities are to further scale our Evolve product family, expand e-commerce and retail and professional distribution channels, and strengthen our path to profitability.

Sales, net of sales discounts and promotions, were $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1.1 million for the same period of 2025. The $153,000 increase was primarily driven by higher sales volume of Evolve, supported by continued growth in our e-commerce sales channel. Evolve represented approximately 85% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 81% in the same period of 2025, reflecting the continued shift in our product mix toward Evolve. The increase in Evolve sales was partially offset by lower ContraPest sales, which primarily occur through our B2B sales channel, resulting in an overall shift in our revenue mix toward e-commerce during the period. B2B sales were also impacted by personnel turnover within our sales and marketing organizations during the first half of 2026. With the transition complete, we expect an increase in B2B sales, including increased ContraPest sales.

It represented approximately 85% of first quarter 2026 revenues, compared to 79% in the first quarter of 2025. The increase in Evolve revenues was partially offset by an expected decline in ContraPest sales.

Cost of sales consists of costs related to products sold, including scrap and any reserves for obsolescence, as well as shipping costs when charged to the customer. Cost of sales was $155,000,$203,000, or 31.4%26.4% of net sales, for the firstsecond quarter of 2026, compared to $172,000,$216,000, or 35.5%,34.6%, for the firstsecond quarter of 2025. Cost of sales was $358,000, or 28.3% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $388,000, or 35.0%, for the same period of 2025.

Removed

For the foreseeable future, tariffs on foreign countries are not expected to increase our costs, as the majority of our components are sourced domestically.

Added

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2026 was $567,000, representing a margin of 73.6%, compared to $409,000, or 65.4%, in the second quarter of 2025. Gross profit improved primarily as a result of the transition to selling directly on Amazon, which began in February 2026 and was completed during the second quarter. Selling directly allows the Company to realize a higher selling price per unit than under the prior third-party distributor arrangement, and the resulting increase in gross profit more than offsets the marketplace fees, commissions and other operating costs now recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Research and development expenses were $422,000$377,000 for the firstsecond quarter of 2026, compared to $418,000$427,000 for the firstsecond quarter of 2025, representing ana increasedecrease of $4,000.$50,000. Research and development expenses were $799,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $845,000 during the same period of 2025, representing a decrease of $46,000.

Added

The quarterly decrease was primarily attributable to higher facility-related expenses incurred during the second quarter of 2025 in connection with our April 2025 relocation to a new manufacturing site. During the transition, we incurred costs associated with operating both the former and new facilities concurrently.

Added

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the decrease was primarily due to lower other and personnel-related costs, reflecting the benefits of the Company’s ongoing cost-containment efforts. Facility-related expenses were comparable to the prior year period, as higher facility costs incurred in 2026 were offset by incremental costs incurred in 2025 related to the transition in manufacturing facilities.

Removed

The slight increase was due to higher facility-related expenses following our move to a new manufacturing site in April 2025, which provides expanded production capacity and corporate office space. This increase was largely offset by savings from ongoing cost-containment efforts.

Reworded

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.0$2.1 million for the firstsecond quarter of 2026, compared to $1.6 million for the firstsecond quarter of 2025, representing an increase of $477,000.$456,000.

Added

The overall increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter reflects a combination of non-recurring leadership succession costs, strategic investments in sales and marketing initiatives, and transitional and incremental costs associated with bringing the Company’s Amazon business in-house. Leadership succession costs totaling approximately $303,000 are not expected to recur, while the consulting and transition-related costs are expected to moderate as the Company reduces reliance on consultants that supported personnel transitions within the sales and marketing organizations and the completion of strategic initiatives.

Added

Personnel-related costs increased primarily due to leadership succession activities and included $273,000 of severance costs, which are not expected to recur.

Added

Professional fees increased by $265,000, including $122,000 of higher board compensation resulting from an increase in the number of Board members and changes in director compensation rates, responsibilities, and committee assignments, and $30,000 of executive search expenses associated with leadership succession. Consulting fees also increased approximately $118,000 to support the sales and marketing organizations during personnel transitions and to advance strategic sales and marketing initiatives, including product packaging redesign, marketing strategy development, and the transition to direct sales on Amazon. As the personnel transitions within the sales and marketing organizations and these strategic initiatives have largely been completed, we expect consulting costs to moderate in the coming quarters.

Added

We also incurred approximately $76,000 of incremental operating costs associated with bringing third-party marketplace management, including Amazon, in-house. These costs, which were not incurred in the prior-year period, primarily reflect the economics of selling directly on Amazon rather than through a third-party distributor. Selling directly enables the Company to realize a higher selling price and a higher gross profit per unit, which more than offsets the marketplace fees, commissions and other operating costs the Company now bears directly. The transition to direct management of our Amazon business, which began in February 2026 and was completed during the second quarter, provides greater control over pricing, merchandising, customer relationships and the overall customer experience while positioning the Company to sustain healthy margins, strengthen customer engagement, and capture valuable customer insights that support future revenue growth.

Added

These increases were partially offset by lower franchise fees and other operating costs resulting from our ongoing cost-containment efforts.

Added

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $3.2 million for the same period of 2025, representing an increase of $933,000.

Added

The overall increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the six-month period reflects a combination of non-recurring leadership succession costs, legal-related costs, strategic investments in sales and marketing initiatives, and transitional and incremental costs associated with bringing our Amazon business in-house. Leadership succession costs and legal costs related to a specific matter and transition totaling approximately $780,000 are not expected to recur, while the consulting and transition-related costs are expected to moderate as the Company reduces reliance on consultants that supported personnel transitions within the sales and marketing organizations and the completion of strategic initiatives.

Added

Personnel-related costs increased primarily due to leadership succession activities and included $503,000 of severance costs, which are not expected to recur.

Added

Professional fees increased by $658,000, including $241,000 of higher legal fees driven by the settlement of a specific legal matter and succession and transition activity, $201,000 of higher board compensation resulting from an increase in the number of Board members and changes in director compensation rates, responsibilities, and committee assignments, and $60,000 of executive search expenses associated with leadership succession. Consulting fees also increased approximately $146,000 to support the sales and marketing organizations during personnel transitions and to advance strategic sales and marketing initiatives, including product packaging redesign, marketing strategy development, and the transition to direct sales on Amazon. As the personnel transitions within the sales and marketing organizations and these strategic initiatives have largely been completed, we expect consulting costs to moderate in the coming quarters.

Added

We also incurred approximately $76,000 of incremental operating costs associated with bringing third-party marketplace management, including Amazon, in-house, as discussed above.

Added

These increases were partially offset by lower franchise fees and other operating costs resulting from our ongoing cost-containment efforts.

Removed

The increase was primarily driven by higher professional fees, including $213,000 in legal expenses associated with the settlement of a specific litigation matter and increased general corporate activity. Consulting costs related to marketing efforts also rose due to changes in product packaging and strategy, including a shift toward direct sales on Amazon. Also included in professional fees, board compensation increased as a result of changes in director responsibilities and committee assignments.

Removed

Personnel-related costs included $230,000 of severance expense incurred during the first quarter of 2026, as well as executive search fees related to succession planning, partially offset by changes in headcount.

The increase in interest income in 2026 reflects a higher average balance of cash, cash equivalents and investments compared to the same period in 2025.

Added

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, interest income, net was $86,000, consisting of $95,000 in interest income and $9,000 in interest expense. This compares to interest expense, net of $4,000, consisting of $11,000 in interest expense and $7,000 in interest income.

Since our inception, we have incurred operating losses related to our research and development activities and commercialization efforts, with a net loss of $2.1$3.9 million for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, and we expect these losses to continue for the near future. Although sales of our product have increased over the last three years—20% in 2025, 56% in 2024, and 17% in 2023—we are not yet able to fund operations by product sales alone. We have primarily funded our operations through the sale of equity securities, including common stock and warrants to purchase common stock.

Reworded

Through MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we received net proceeds of $117.2 million primarily from the sales of our equity securities, including warrant exercises, an aggregate of $8.3$9.0 million in product sales and an aggregate of $1.7 million from licensing fees. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, cash and cash equivalents were $5.1 million, compared to cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $6.8 million, compared toof $8.6 million as of December 31, 2025.

Reworded

Based on our current operating plan, we expectbelieve that our cash and cash equivalents as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, in combinationtogether with anticipatedcurrent revenue,revenues and operating expense levels, will be sufficient to fund our current operations intothrough the thirdend of the first quarter of fiscal 2027. This estimate assumes continued execution of our current commercialization strategy, planned levels of operating expenses, and no significantmaterial changes in working capital requirements. Increased revenues, reduced operating expenses, or additional financing, if obtained, would further extend our cash runway.

Reworded

Our projected cash runway does not assume the receipt of additional capital from equity issuances, debt financings, strategic partnerships, or other external sources. While we have evaluated and continue to evaluate our operating expenses and have focused our resources on the successful commercialization of fertility control products in the United States, additional financing will be needed in order to fund our operating losses before achieving our revenue and margin targets and becoming profitable and generating positive cash flows. We may never achieve profitability or generate positive cash flows, and unless and until we do, we will continue to need to raise capital through equity or debt financing. If revenue growth does not occur at anticipated levels, or if expenses exceed current expectations, we may be required to seek additional financing sooner than currently anticipated.

Added

We continue to evaluate various financing alternatives, including equity offerings under our existing ATM program, strategic partnerships, and other capital-raising transactions. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If equity or debt financing is not available at adequate levels or on acceptable terms, we may need to delay, limit or terminate our commercialization and development efforts, sell certain assets, or discontinue operations, or we may be required to take other measures that could impair our ability to be successful and operate as a going concern. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest could be diluted and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a common stockholder. Debt financing may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends and may be secured by all or a portion of our assets. If we fail to obtain additional capital as and when required, such failure could have a material impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
