(“Lexaria”, “we”, “our” or the “Company”) is a biotechnology company pursuing the enhancement of the bioavailability of a diverse and broad range of active pharmaceutical ingredients (“API”) using our proprietary DehydraTECH drug delivery technology. Our current focus is the investigation of the incorporation of our DehydraTECH drug delivery technology with GLP-1 and GIP drugs to enhance absorption and reduce adverse side effects. Revenues are generated from licensing contracts for the Company’s patented DehydraTECH technology based on the terms of use and defined geographic and licensing arrangements. We derive income from our third party contracted manufacturing of B2B DehydraTECH enhanced products made to customer specifications that are sold online and in-store in the US and Canada. We also perform contract services in R&D for customer specific formulations that are used in comparison testing to customers’ existing products. *Liquidity* The Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which assumes the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its financial obligations for a period of at least 12 months from the date of this report. Since inception, the Company has incurred significant operating and net losses. The losses attributable to shareholders were $5.8 million and $6.7 million, for the years ended August 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of August 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $51.6 million. We expect to continue to incur significant operational expenses and net losses in the upcoming 12 months. Our net losses may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year, depending on the stage and complexity of our R&D studies and corporate expenditures, additional revenues received from the licensing of our technology, if any, and the receipt of payments under any current or future collaborations we may enter into. During the year ended August 31, 2024, we raised an approximate aggregate $10.3 million in net proceeds from the sale of securities pursuant to our equity financings from October 3, 2023, February 14, 2024 and April 30, 2024 and from the exercise of warrants. Subsequent to August 31, 2024, we raised an additional $4.5 million in net proceeds in a registered direct offering. We may offer additional securities for sale during our fiscal year 2025 or thereafter in response to market conditions or other circumstances if we believe such a plan of financing is required to advance the Company’s business plans and is in the best interests of our stockholders. Based on existing cash resources, management believes that current funding will be sufficient to meet the Company’s financial obligations for a period of at least twelve months from the date of this report.
