SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED JULY 1, 2026

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

Up to 4,705,882 Shares of Common Stock

Pre-Funded Warrants to Purchase up to 4,705,882 Shares of Common Stock

Warrants to Purchase up to 4,705,882 Shares of Common Stock

Placement Agent Warrants to Purchase up to 188,235 shares of Common Stock

Up to 14,305,882 Shares of Common Stock Issuable upon the Exercise of the Warrants, Pre-Funded Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants.

We are offering in a best-efforts offering up to 4,705,882 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“common stock”), and accompanying warrants to purchase up to 4,705,882 shares of our common stock at a combined public offering price of $0.85 per share of common stock and accompanying warrant (the “Offering”). The common warrants have an exercise price equal to $0.85 per share and will be exercisable beginning on the effective date of stockholder approval of the issuance of the shares upon exercise of the warrants (“Stockholder Approval”), provided however, if the Pricing Conditions (as defined below) are met, the common warrant will be exercisable upon issuance (the “Initial Exercise Date”). As used herein “Pricing Conditions” means that the combined offering price per share and accompanying Common Warrant is such that the Warrant Stockholder Approval is not required under Nasdaq rules because either (i) the offering is an at-the-market offering under Nasdaq rules and such price equals or exceeds the sum of (a) the applicable “Minimum Price” per share under Nasdaq rule 5635(d) plus (b) $0.125 per whole share of common stock underlying the Common Warrant or (ii) the offering is a discounted offering where the pricing and discount (including attributing a value of $0.125 per whole share underlying the warrants) meet the pricing requirements under the Nasdaq rules.

We are also offering to those purchasers, if any, whose purchase of our common stock in this Offering would otherwise result in such purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock immediately following the consummation of this Offering, the opportunity, in lieu of purchasing common stock, to purchase pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, or pre-funded warrants. Each pre-funded warrant will be exercisable for one share of our common stock (subject to adjustment as provided for therein) at any time at the option of the holder until such pre-funded warrant is exercised in full, provided that the holder will be prohibited from exercising pre-funded warrants for shares of our common stock if, as a result of such exercise, the holder, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, would own more than 4.99% of the total number of shares of our common stock then issued and outstanding. However, any holder may increase such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days after notice to us. The purchase price of each pre-funded warrant will equal the price per share at which shares of our common stock and accompanying warrants to purchase common stock are being sold to the public in this Offering, minus $0.001, and the exercise price of each pre-funded warrant will equal $0.001 per share of common stock. For each pre-funded warrant purchased in this Offering in lieu of common stock, we will reduce the number of shares of common stock we are offering by one. Pursuant to this prospectus (“Prospectus”), we are also offering the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants, pre-funded warrants and placement agent warrants offered hereby.

Each share of our common stock, or pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof, is being sold together with a warrant to purchase one share of our common stock. Each common warrant will have an exercise price of $0.85 per share (representing 100% of the combined public offering price per share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) and accompanying warrant in this offering), will be exercisable upon receipt of Stockholder Approval, provided however if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrant will be exercisable immediately. The common warrant will expire on the fifth anniversary of the original issuance date. If we are unable to obtain any required Stockholder Approval, the common warrants will not be exercisable and therefore have no value. The shares of our common stock and warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately, but will be purchased together in this Offering. The pre-funded warrants and warrants are not listed on any trading market and we do not intend to apply for listing of these pre-funded warrants and warrants. Without an active market, the liquidity of these warrants will be limited.

This Offering will terminate within one year of the effective date, unless we decide to terminate (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. We will have one closing for all the securities purchased in this Offering by us. The combined public offering price per share (or pre-funded warrant) and warrant will be fixed for the duration of this Offering.

We have engaged Maxim Group LLC, or the placement agent, to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with the securities offered by the Company in the Offering. The placement agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the securities offered in the Offering in this Prospectus. Other than the placement agent warrants issued as compensation, the placement agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities we are offering, and the placement agent is not required to arrange the purchase or sale of any specific number of securities or dollar amount.

Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “AEMD.” On June 29, 2026, the last reported sale price of our common stock as reported on Nasdaq was $0.85 per share. We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined under the federal securities laws and, under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules, we have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting and disclosure requirements.

You should read this prospectus, together with additional information described under the headings “Where You Can Find More Information,” carefully before you invest in any of our securities.

We have agreed to pay the placement agent fees set forth in the table below, which assumes that we sell all of the securities offered by this prospectus. See “Plan of Distribution” section of this prospectus for more information regarding these arrangements. There is no minimum number of shares of common stock or pre-funded warrants or minimum aggregate amount of proceeds that is a condition for this offering to close. We may sell fewer than all of the shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund if we do not sell all of the securities offered hereby. In addition, because there is no escrow account and no minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds, investors could be in a position where they have invested in us, but we have not raised sufficient proceeds in this offering to adequately fund the intended uses of the proceeds as described in this prospectus.

	Per Share and Warrant		Per Pre-Funded Warrant and Warrant		Total

Overview and Corporate History

Overview

We are a medical therapeutic company focused on developing the Hemopurifier, a clinical-stage immunotherapeutic device designed to combat cancer and life-threatening viral infections and for use in organ transplantation. In human studies, 173 sessions with 44 patients, the Hemopurifier was safely utilized and demonstrated the potential to remove life-threatening viruses.

In pre-clinical studies, the Hemopurifier has also demonstrated the potential to remove harmful exosomes and exosomal particles from biological fluids, utilizing its proprietary lectin-based technology. This action has potential applications in cancer, where exosomes and exosomal particles may promote immune suppression and metastasis, and in life-threatening infectious diseases. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, has designated the Hemopurifier as a “Breakthrough Device” for two independent indications:

	·	the treatment of individuals with advanced or metastatic cancer who are either unresponsive to or intolerant of standard of care therapy, and with cancer types in which exosomes or exosomal particles have been shown to participate in the development or severity of the disease; and
	·	the treatment of life-threatening viruses that are not addressed with approved therapies.

We are also evaluating the Hemopurifier’s potential in additional clinical contexts based on its mechanism of action and preclinical findings.

In October 2022, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in Australia to support oncology-related clinical research and pursue regulatory approval and potential regulatory and commercialization opportunities for the Hemopurifier.

Three clinical sites in Australia—Royal Adelaide Hospital in Adelaide, Pindara Private Hospital in the Gold Coast, and GenesisCare North Shore Hospital in Sydney—are currently open for enrollment in our safety, feasibility and dose-finding oncology trial in patients with solid tumors not responding to treatment including either Keytruda® or Opdivo®. This trial aims to enroll 9-18 patients.

In 2025, we completed the first of three planned cohorts, comprising three participants. Each of the three participants received a single 4-hour Hemopurifier treatment. The Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB), comprising independent medical experts in nephrology and oncology, reviewed the data from the initial cohort. Based on their evaluation, the DSMB found no safety concerns and confirmed that the Hemopurifier continues to demonstrate a favorable safety and tolerability profile. To date, no serious adverse events (SAEs) or Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) related to the Hemopurifier have been reported.

Following the DSMB review of the first cohort and their recommendation to proceed onto the second cohort, we began enrollment in the second Cohort 2. In this phase, participants receive two Hemopurifier treatments over a one-week period at the study's three active clinical sites in Australia. To date, we have treated two participants in Cohort 2 and are continuing to recruit additional participants. In March 2026, the Company completed the second cohort and the DSMB subsequently approved advancement to the third cohort of the study. Recently the Company treated the first participant in Cohort 3 at Royal North Shore Hospital in Australia. The participant completed three Hemopurifier treatments over a one-week period, marking continued enrollment momentum and execution of the study's final treatment arm.

We previously planned a similar clinical trial in India and received formal approval from the Indian regulatory agency, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO), on July 7, 2025. After reviewing extended timelines for site activation and trial execution, we decided to cancel the Indian trial to conserve resources and focus on the Australian oncology trial.

The Hemopurifier is designed to address life-threatening viral infections, particularly those involving highly glycosylated viruses for which there are no approved therapies. It has previously been used under FDA and international regulatory frameworks to treat individuals infected with HIV, hepatitis C, Ebola, and SARS-CoV-2. While our COVID-19 clinical trials in the U.S. and India were terminated due to low ICU enrollment, these programs provided real-world evidence of Hemopurifier use in critically ill patients. We maintain an open IDE for viral indications, preserving the ability to respond to future outbreaks or emerging pathogens.

In addition to ongoing clinical trials, we continue to explore potential new applications for the Hemopurifier through internal pre-clinical research and academic collaborations. During the first fiscal quarter of 2026, results of our pre-clinical ex-vivo study entitled “Ex Vivo Removal of CD41 positive platelet microparticles from Plasma by a Medical Device containing a Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) affinity resin” were made publicly available as a pre-print on bioRxiv. The study evaluated the Hemopurifier’s ability to bind and remove disease-relevant EVs, including those derived from platelets, which are implicated in cancer, autoimmune disease, and neurological disorders. The study demonstrated greater than 98% removal of platelet-derived EVs from healthy human plasma in a simulated clinical session.

In November 2025 we also made publicly available a separate pre-clinical preprint entitled “Increased mannosylation of extracellular vesicles in Long COVID plasma provides a potential therapeutic target for Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) affinity resin,” which describes exploratory ex vivo laboratory research conducted in collaboration with the University of California, San Francisco Long COVID Clinic. This study examined EV characteristics in plasma samples from individuals with Long COVID. The findings have not been peer reviewed and are based on laboratory analysis rather than clinical studies.

These exploratory programs, together with our academic collaborations, are intended to inform potential future clinical indications and research directions, evaluate the broader applicability of the Hemopurifier platform, and may not be indicative of clinical outcomes.

We have sufficient inventory of Hemopurifiers to support our ongoing oncology trial in Australia as well as any near-term trial expansions. While FDA approval to begin manufacturing at our San Diego facility under our IDE supplement, we are still awaiting approval of a separate supplement to qualify an additional key component supplier and continue to work with the FDA on this process.

Successful outcomes of human trials will also be required by the regulatory agencies of certain foreign countries where we plan to market and sell the Hemopurifier. Some of our patents may expire before FDA approval or approval in a foreign country, if any, is obtained. However, we believe that certain patent applications and/or other patents issued to us more recently will help protect the proprietary nature of our Hemopurifier treatment technology.

We continue to monitor the impact of inflation, recent bank failures and ongoing geopolitical conflicts including the war in Ukraine and the military actions in Israel and the surrounding areas, on our business. Given the level of uncertainty regarding the duration and impact of these events on capital markets and the U.S. economy, we are currently unable to assess their full impact on our timelines and access to capital.

Oncology

We believe that the Hemopurifier may be a substantial advancement in the treatment of patients with advanced and metastatic cancer through its design to bind to and remove harmful extracellular vesicles particles that promote the growth and spread of tumors. In October 2022, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in Australia to initially conduct oncology-related clinical research, then seek regulatory approval and commercialize our Hemopurifier in Australia.

We completed an in vitro binding study of extracellular vesicles from cancer patient samples, to provide pre-clinical evidence to support our trial design and translational endpoints. Our study indicated positive results from this study, providing evidence that our Hemopurifier removes extracellular vesicles, or EVs, from plasma. This translational study provides pre-clinical evidence to support our phase 1 safety, feasibility and dose-finding clinical trials of our Hemopurifier in patients with solid tumors who have stable or progressive disease during anti-PD-1 monotherapy treatment, such as Keytruda® or Opdivo®.

We have launched in Australia a safety, feasibility and dose-finding clinical trials of the Hemopurifier in cancer patients with solid tumors who have stable or progressive disease during anti-PD-1 monotherapy treatment, such as Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) or Opdivo® (nivolumab). The primary endpoint of the approximately nine to 18-patients, is safety. Exploratory analyses will be conducted to explore the number of HP treatments required to produce sustained reductions of EVs as well as improve anti-tumor T cell activity.

The following three hospitals in Australia have received ethics committee approval, have gone through training on our device and are open for patient enrollment: Royal Adelaide Hospital in Adelaide, Australia and Pindara Private Hospital in the Gold Coast section of Australia and GenesisCare North Shore Hospital in Sydney, Australia. As of June 26, 2025, we have treated three participants in the first of the three treatment cohorts. Once these patients have completed the pre-specified 7-day safety follow-up period, the data will be presented to an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB). The DSMB will provide a recommendation to Aethlon senior leadership on advancing to the next cohort where participants will receive 2 HP treatments during the one week treatment period.

On July 15, 2025, DSMB, overseeing its ongoing clinical trial AEMD-2022-06, completed its scheduled safety review and recommended advancing to the next patient cohort without modification. The trial, titled "Safety, Feasibility, and Dose-Finding Study of Aethlon Hemopurifier in Patients with Solid Tumors Who Have Stable or Progressive Disease While on a Treatment That Includes Pembrolizumab or Nivolumab", is being conducted to assess the Hemopurifier's safety, feasibility, and optimal dosing.

Life-Threatening Viral Infections

We also believe that the Hemopurifier can be part of the broad-spectrum treatment of life-threatening highly glycosylated, or carbohydrate coated, viruses that are not addressed with an already approved treatment. In small-scale or early feasibility human studies, the Hemopurifier has been used in the past to treat individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus, or HIV, hepatitis-C and Ebola.

Additionally, in vitro, the Hemopurifier has been demonstrated to capture Ebola, Marburg virus, Zika, Lassa, MERS-CoV, Cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr, Herpes simplex, Chikungunya, Dengue, West Nile, H1N1 swine flu, H5N1 bird flu, and the reconstructed 1918 Spanish flu virus. In several cases, these studies were conducted in collaboration with leading government or non-government research institutes.

The Hemopurifier has previously been studied under FDA and international regulatory frameworks for the treatment of severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. While we terminated our U.S. and India-based COVID-19 studies due to low ICU patient volume and shifting priorities, these programs demonstrated real-world use of the Hemopurifier in critically ill patients. We maintain an open IDE for viral indications to preserve optionality for future outbreaks or emergent pathogens.

We have sufficient inventory of Hemopurifiers to support our ongoing oncology trial in Australia as well as any near-term expansion of that study or potential trial activity in India. While we have received FDA approval to begin manufacturing at our San Diego facility under our IDE supplement, we are still awaiting FDA approval of a separate supplement to qualify an additional supplier of a key Hemopurifier component. We continue to work with the FDA on this process.

Pre-Clinical Exploration of Additional Clinical Uses for the Hemopurifier

The Aethlon R&D laboratory continues to explore potential new indications for the Hemopurifier. We have published in the peer-reviewed journal Transplant Immunology the ability of the device to remove extracellular vesicles and their microRNA cargo from acellular perfusates of discarded kidneys that had undergone normothermic machine perfusion.

On May 12, 2025, the results of our pre-clinical ex vivo study entitled “Ex Vivo Removal of CD41 positive platelet microparticles from Plasma by a Medical Device containing a Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) affinity resin” were published in the pre-print vehicle bioRxiv. This manuscript has been submitted to a peer-reviewed publication for review.

Platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (PD-EVs) are the most numerous EV population in the body and are released by platelets in response to a variety of stimuli. The cargo contained within these EVs have been noted to take part in damage to blood vessels, activation of immune cells and spread of tumor cells. Excessive levels of PD-EVs have been implicated in a myriad of diseases including cancer, lupus, systemic sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, sepsis, acute and Long COVID.

We hypothesized that the Aethlon Hemopurifier which contains a propriety GNA affinity resin would remove platelet derived EVs from plasma. In this experiment two hundred milliliters on donated healthy human plasma were circulated over the Aethlon Hemoupurifier (HP) to simulate a clinical HP session. The study results showed a 98.5% removal of platelet -derived EVs at a timepoint equivalent to a 4-hour HP treatment. The results of this study support the current Australian Clinical Trial in Oncology as well as open the investigation of the Hemopurifier in many indications.

Extracellular vesicles have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Long COVID. As we had previously demonstrated removal of extracellular vesicles by the Hemopurifier in a patient with severe acute COVID-19 infection, we hypothesized that patients with Long COVID would have extracellular vesicles with the mannose sugar on their surface that would bind to the affinity resin in our device. We partnered with investigators at the Univ of California San Francisco Medical Center Long COVID clinic to obtain samples from participants with Long COVID as well as controls that had had COVID -10 infection but had recovered. The data to be presented will review the binding of larger and smaller extracellular vesicles to the GNA lectin and the lectin affinity resin, respectively. We believe the data from this pre-clinical study calls for additional study of the Hemopurifier and look forward to receiving feedback from the Long COVID scientific community at the Keystone Symposium.

In addition to the foregoing, we are monitoring closely the impact of inflation, recent bank failures and the war between Russia and Ukraine and the military conflicts in Israel and the surrounding areas, as well as related political and economic responses and counter-responses by various global factors on our business. Given the level of uncertainty regarding the duration and impact of these events on capital markets and the U.S. economy, we are unable to assess the impact on our timelines and future access to capital. The full extent to which inflation, recent bank failures and the ongoing military conflicts will impact our business, results of operations, financial condition, clinical trials and preclinical research will depend on future developments, as well as the economic impact on national and international markets that are highly uncertain.

On March 10, 1999, Aethlon, Inc., a California corporation, Hemex, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the accounting predecessor to Aethlon, Inc., and Bishop Equities, Inc., a publicly traded Nevada corporation, completed an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization structured to result in Bishop Equities, Inc.’s acquisition of all of the outstanding common stock of Aethlon, Inc. and Hemex, Inc. Under the plan’s terms, Bishop Equities, Inc. issued shares of its common stock to the stockholders of Aethlon, Inc. and Hemex, Inc. such that Bishop Equities, Inc. then owned 100% of each company. Upon completion of the transaction, Bishop Equities, Inc. was renamed Aethlon Medical, Inc. Our executive offices are located at 11555 Sorrento Valley Road, Suite 203, San Diego, California 92121.

The Mechanism of Action (MOA) of the Hemopurifier

The Hemopurifier is a lectin-affinity plasmapheresis extracorporeal device designed for the removal of harmful extracellular vesicles and life-threatening enveloped viruses from the plasma component of the bloodstream. In the United States, the Hemopurifier is classified as a combination product whose regulatory jurisdiction is the Center for Devices and Radiological Health, or CDRH, the branch of FDA responsible for the premarket approval of all medical devices.

In our current applications, our Hemopurifier can be used with approved dialysis machines serving as a blood pump. It could also potentially be developed as part of a proprietary closed system with its own pump and tubing set, negating the requirement for dialysis infrastructure.

The Hemopurifier - Clinical Experience

Hepatitis C and HIV

The initial clinical development of the Hemopurifier focused on the viral infections Hepatitis C and HIV. Clinical trials conducted in India and a safety trial demonstrated the removal of both viruses from the bloodstream with a benign safety profile. Prior to FDA approval of the IDE feasibility study, we conducted investigational HCV treatment studies at the Apollo Hospital, Fortis Hospital, and the Medanta Medicity Institute in India. In the Medanta Medicity Institute study, 12 HCV-infected individuals were enrolled to receive three six-hour Hemopurifier treatments during the first three days of a 48-week peginterferon+ribavirin treatment regimen. The study was conducted under the leadership of Dr. Vijay Kher. Dr. Kher’s staff reported that Hemopurifier therapy was well tolerated and without device-related adverse events in the 12 patients treated.

Of these 12 patients, ten completed the Hemopurifier-peginterferon+ribavirin treatment protocol, including eight genotype-1 patients and two genotype-3 patients. Eight of the ten patients achieved a sustained virologic response, which is the clinical definition of treatment cure and is defined as undetectable HCV in the blood 24 weeks after the completion of the 48-week peginterferon+ribavirin drug regimen. Both genotype-3 patients achieved a sustained virologic response, while six of the eight genotype-1 patients achieved a sustained virologic response, which defines a cure of the infection. Our IDE safety study in end stage renal disease patients on dialysis who were infected with HCV was conducted at DaVita MedCenter Dialysis in Houston, Texas. We reported that there were no device-related adverse events in enrolled subjects who met the study inclusion-exclusion criteria. We also reported that an average capture of 154 million copies of HCV (in International Units, I.U.) within the Hemopurifier during four-hour treatments.

In addition to treating Ebola and HCV-infected individuals, we also conducted a single proof-of-principle treatment study at the Sigma New Life Hospital in an AIDS patient who was not being administered HIV antiviral drugs. In the study, viral load was reduced by 93% as the result of 12 Hemopurifier treatments (each four hours in duration) that were administered over the course of one month.

With the advent of highly effective anti-retroviral drugs for HIV (HAART), and curative direct acting antivirals (DACs) for Hepatitis C, clinical development for these indications was abandoned.

Ebola Virus-Single Patient Emergency Use

Under Emergency use conditions a single patient with Ebola infection with multiple organ dysfunction was treated with the Hemopurifier at Frankfurt University Hospital in Germany. The patient tolerated a single 6.5-hour Hemopurifier treatment. Prior to treatment, the Ebola viral load was measured at 400,000 copies/ml. The post-treatment viral load was 1,000 copies/ml. Calculations by the treating physician indicated that 242 million copies of Ebola virus were captured within the Hemopurifier during treatment. The patient made a full recovery. Based on this experience, the Company filed an Expanded Access protocol with the FDA to treat Ebola virus infected patients in up to ten centers in the United States and a corresponding protocol was approved by HealthCanada. These protocols remain open, allowing Hemopurifier treatment to be offered to patients presenting for care in both countries. In 2018, the FDA designated the Hemopurifier as a Breakthrough Device “for the treatment of life-threatening viruses that are not addressed with approved therapies.” In connection with renewed public health interest surrounding recent Ebola outbreaks, we also confirmed the continued availability of our FDA-authorized expanded access (compassionate use) protocol and shared the protocol as well as past in vitro and in vivo data with organizations involved in global and U.S. emerging pathogen preparedness efforts, including the World Health Organization's R&D Blueprint expert panel and the National Emerging Special Pathogen Training and Education Center.

Severe Acute SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 Infection – Emergency Use and Clinical Trials

SARS-COV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19 is a member of the coronavirus family, which includes the original SARS virus, SARS-CoV, and the MERS virus. SARS-CoV-2, found to contain mannose on the envelope surface. This suggests that the Hemopurifier could potentially clear it from biological fluids, including blood.

Under Single Patient Emergency Use regulations, we have treated two patients with COVID-19 with the Hemopurifier. We published a manuscript reviewing case studies covering those two Single Patient Emergency Use treatments entitled “Removal of COVID-19 Spike Protein, Whole Virus, Exosomes and Exosomal microRNAs by the Hemopurifier® Lectin-Affinity Cartridge in Critically Ill Patients with COVID-19 Infection” in the peer-reviewed journal Frontiers in Medicine.

The manuscript described the use of the Hemopurifier for a total of nine sessions in two critically ill COVID-19 patients. The first case study demonstrated the improvement in the patient who was a SARS-COV-2 positive COVID-19 present at entry to the hospital, with associated coagulopathy, or CAC, lung injury, inflammation, and tissue injury despite the absence of demonstrable COVID-19 viremia at the start of treatment at Day 22.This patient received eight Hemopurifier treatments without complications and eventually was weaned from a ventilator and was discharged from the hospital. Plasma samples from this patient revealed a decrease in extracellular vesicle counts over the course of the eight treatments and decreases in exosomal microRNAs associated with the development of coagulopathy and acute lung injury.

The second patient case study demonstrated in vivo removal of SARS-CoV-2 virus from the blood stream of an infected patient. This patient completed a six-hour Hemopurifier treatment without complications and subsequently was placed on continuous renal replacement therapy, or CRRT. The patient ultimately expired three hours after being placed on CRRT because of the advanced stage of the patient’s disease.

On June 17, 2020, the FDA approved a supplement to our open IDE for the Hemopurifier in viral disease to allow for the testing of the Hemopurifier in patients with SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 in a New Feasibility Study. That study was designed to enroll up to 40 subjects at up to 20 centers in the United States. Subjects had to have an established laboratory diagnosis of COVID-19, be admitted to an ICU, and have acute lung injury and/or severe or life-threatening disease, among other criteria. Endpoints for this study, in addition to safety, include reduction in circulating virus, as well as clinical outcomes (NCT # 04595903). In June 2022, the Company completed the treatment protocol for its first patient in this study.

In June 2022, the Company completed the treatment protocol of the only participant enrolled in the study. study. The patient received one HP treatment daily for 4 days. This patient died following cardiac arrest (not related to the HP treatment) as a consequence of severe COVID-19 pneumonia. Blood samples taken from the patient did not reveal any evidence of viremia. Plasma sent for cytokine analysis revealed a numeric decrease in the levels of IP-10, MCP-1, and IL-10.

A similarly designed trial was also conducted in India. One patient was enrolled on February 16, 2022, at Medanta Medicity Hospital, Gurugram, Haryana 12200, India. The patient tolerated one HP treatment daily for three days. On 19 February 2022, in the first 15 min during the 3rd treatment, one nonserious Grade 2 AE was reported (hemolysis and leaking of the filter). The filter was replaced, and therapy resumed without sequalae. On Day #4 the patient suffered asystole and died due to clinical deterioration unrelated to the device. During the first Hemopurifier treatment (T1) there was a gradual decrease in viral load from the baseline at 4923 copies/mL decreasing steadily to 1307 copies/mL over five hours, indicating a 73% reduction from baseline. At the beginning of the second Hemopurifier treatment (T2), the viral load was 850 copies/mL, dropped below the lower limit of quantification within an hour, and remained undetectable, suggesting rapid clearance. The viral load before the third treatment (T3) was below the quantification limit but unexpectedly rose at 3 hours (636 copies/mL), peaking at 4 hours (1583 copies/mL), and slightly decreasing at 5 hours (1104 copies/mL). This irregular pattern suggests possible delayed RNA release, sample variability, or another biological factor affecting detection. The cumulative data shows a reduced SARs-CoV-2 viral load during the first two Hemopurifier treatments but not during the third treatment.

Due to lack of eligible patients in the ICU the clinical trial was closed as of November 22, 2022.

Oncology- U.S. Clinical Trial in Head and Neck Cancer

A single center clinical trial entitled “Depleting Exosomes to Improve Response to Immune Therapy in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Cancer: An Early Feasibility Phase I Clinical Trial” was conducted under a US IDE at the University of Pittsburgh. This was a single arm Phase 1 clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Hemopurifier plus pembrolizumab for the treatment of patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer. All patients were treated with pembrolizumab every 21 days as standard of care. The patients were to receive a 4-hour Hemopurifier treatment before Pembrolizumab infusions 2 occasions 21 days apart. A total of 2 patients were enrolled in the study with the first occurring on December 14, 2020. The first patients received 2 HP treatments, and the second patient received one HP treatment. The second treatment in the second patient was terminated due to operator error. Eighteen no serious adverse events occurred in the two patients with none thought related to the device.

The only exploratory efficacy laboratory analysis that was performed in this study was a determination of the total nanoparticle concentrations in the 1st patient prior to and for 14 days after the second HP treatment. Total nanoparticle concentrations decreased following each Hemopurifier treatment. Following Hemopurifier treatment, the total nanoparticle concentrations rose by about Day 7 but did not reach the baseline levels. Exosomes levels are a component of the total nanoparticle concentration but exosome levels over time were not specifically determined.

Australian Oncology Clinical Trial

On June 4, 2026, we completed treatment of the first participant in Cohort 3 of the Company’s Australian oncology trial at Pindara Private Hospital on the Gold Coast of Australia. The participant received three Hemopurifier treatments over a one-week period, each treatment lasting four hours. The participant tolerated the procedures without reported complications. The participant will now undergo a seven-day safety follow-up period during which the participant will be monitored for dose limiting toxicities (“DLTs”) and device-related serious adverse events (SAEs) occurs. Two additional patients must be enrolled and treated to complete this Cohort 3.

Research and Development Costs

A substantial portion of our operating budget is used for research and development activities. The cost of research and development, all of which has been charged to operations, amounted to approximately $1,912,000 and $2,212,000 in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

We also use the marks Aethlon ADAPT™ and ELLSA™ in connection with our business and development activities.

Industry & Competition

The industry for treating infectious disease and cancer is extremely competitive, and companies developing new treatment procedures face significant capital and regulatory challenges. As our Hemopurifier is a clinical-stage device, we have the additional challenge of establishing medical industry support, which will be driven by treatment data resulting from human clinical studies. Should our device become market cleared by the FDA or the regulatory body of another country, we may face significant competition from well-funded pharmaceutical organizations. Additionally, we would likely need to establish large-scale production of our device in order to be competitive. Our competitors include blood filters produced by ExThera Medical Corporation.

Government Regulation

The Hemopurifier is subject to regulation by numerous regulatory bodies, primarily the FDA, and comparable international regulatory agencies. These agencies require manufacturers of medical devices to comply with applicable laws and regulations governing the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, marketing, storage, distribution, advertising and promotion, and post-marketing surveillance reporting of medical devices. As the primary mode of action of the Hemopurifier is attributable to the device component of this combination product, the CDRH has primary jurisdiction over its premarket development, review and approval. Failure to comply with applicable requirements may subject a device and/or its manufacturer to a variety of administrative sanctions, such as issuance of warning letters, import detentions, civil monetary penalties and/or judicial sanctions, such as product seizures, injunctions and criminal prosecution.

FDA’s Pre-market Clearance and Approval Requirements

Each medical device we seek to commercially distribute in the United States will require either a prior 510(k) clearance, unless it is exempt, or a pre-market approval from the FDA. Generally, if a new device has a predicate that is already on the market under a 510(k) clearance, the FDA will allow that new device to be marketed under a 510(k) clearance; otherwise, a premarket approval, or PMA, is required. Medical devices are classified into one of three classes—Class I, Class II or Class III—depending on the degree of risk associated with each medical device and the extent of control needed to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. Class I devices are deemed to be low risk and are subject to the general controls of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, such as provisions that relate to: adulteration; misbranding; registration and listing; notification, including repair, replacement, or refund; records and reports; and good manufacturing practices. Most Class I devices are classified as exempt from pre-market notification under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act, and therefore may be commercially distributed without obtaining 510(k) clearance from the FDA. Class II devices are subject to both general controls and special controls to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. Special controls include performance standards, post market surveillance, patient registries and guidance documents. A manufacturer may be required to submit to the FDA a pre-market notification requesting permission to commercially distribute some Class II devices. Devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risk, such as life-sustaining, life-supporting or implantable devices, or devices deemed not substantially equivalent to a previously cleared 510(k) device, are placed in Class III. A Class III device cannot be marketed in the United States unless the FDA approves the device after submission of a PMA. However, there are some Class III devices for which FDA has not yet called for a PMA. For these devices, the manufacturer must submit a pre-market notification and obtain 510(k) clearance in orders to commercially distribute these devices. The FDA can also impose sales, marketing or other restrictions on devices in order to assure that they are used in a safe and effective manner. We believe that the Hemopurifier will be classified as a Class III device and as such will be subject to PMA submission and approval.

Pre-market Approval Pathway

A pre-market approval application must be submitted to the FDA for Class III devices for which the FDA has required a PMA. The pre-market approval application process is much more demanding than the 510(k) pre-market notification process. A pre-market approval application must be supported by extensive data, including but not limited to technical, preclinical, clinical trials, manufacturing and labeling to demonstrate to the FDA’s satisfaction reasonable evidence of safety and effectiveness of the device.

After a pre-market approval application is submitted, the FDA has 45 days to determine whether the application is sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review and thus whether the FDA will file the application for review. The FDA has 180 days to review a filed pre-market approval application, although the review of an application generally occurs over a significantly longer period of time and can take up to several years. During this review period, the FDA may request additional information or clarification of the information already provided. Also, an advisory panel of experts from outside the FDA may be convened to review and evaluate the application and provide recommendations to the FDA as to the approvability of the device.

Although the FDA is not bound by the advisory panel decision, the panel’s recommendations are important to the FDA’s overall decision making process. In addition, the FDA may conduct a preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facility to ensure compliance with the Quality System Regulation, or QSR. The agency also may inspect one or more clinical sites to assure compliance with FDA’s regulations.

Upon completion of the PMA review, the FDA may: (i) approve the PMA which authorizes commercial marketing with specific prescribing information for one or more indications, which can be more limited than those originally sought; (ii) issue an approvable letter which indicates the FDA’s belief that the PMA is approvable and states what additional information the FDA requires, or the post-approval commitments that must be agreed to prior to approval; (iii) issue a not approvable letter which outlines steps required for approval, but which are typically more onerous than those in an approvable letter, and may require additional clinical trials that are often expensive and time consuming and can delay approval for months or even years; or (iv) deny the application. If the FDA issues an approvable or not approvable letter, the applicant has 180 days to respond, after which the FDA’s review clock is reset.

Emergency Use Authorizations, or EUAs, are granted by FDA in public health emergencies but allow use of the authorized device only during the period of the respective public health emergency, and do not change the requirement to ultimately seek PMA approval after the authorization period has ended.

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are almost always required to support pre-market approval and are sometimes required for 510(k) clearance. In the United States, for significant risk devices, these trials require submission of an application for an IDE to the FDA. The IDE application must be supported by appropriate data, such as animal and laboratory testing results, showing it is safe to test the device in humans and that the testing protocol is scientifically sound. The IDE must be approved in advance by the FDA for a specific number of patients at specified study sites. During the trial, the sponsor must comply with the FDA’s IDE requirements for investigator selection, trial monitoring, reporting and recordkeeping. The investigators must obtain patient informed consent, rigorously follow the investigational plan and study protocol, control the disposition of investigational devices and comply with all reporting and recordkeeping requirements. Clinical trials for significant risk devices may not begin until the IDE application is approved by the FDA and the appropriate institutional review boards, or IRBs, at the clinical trial sites. An IRB is an appropriately constituted group that has been formally designated to review and monitor medical research involving subjects and which has the authority to approve, require modifications in, or disapprove research to protect the rights, safety and welfare of human research subjects. The FDA or the IRB at each site at which a clinical trial is being performed may withdraw approval of a clinical trial at any time for various reasons, including a belief that the risks to study subjects outweigh the benefits or a failure to comply with FDA or IRB requirements. Even if a trial is completed, the results of clinical testing may not demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the device, may be equivocal or may otherwise not be sufficient to obtain approval or clearance of the product.

Ongoing Regulation by the FDA

Even after a device receives clearance or approval and is placed on the market, numerous regulatory requirements apply. Even after a device receives clearance or approval and is placed on the market, numerous regulatory requirements apply. These include:

	·	establishment registration and device listing;

	·	the QSR, which requires manufacturers, including third-party manufacturers, to follow stringent design, testing, control, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during all aspects of the manufacturing process;

	·	labeling regulations and the FDA prohibitions against the promotion of products for uncleared, unapproved or “off-label” uses and other requirements related to promotional activities;

	·	medical device reporting regulations, which require that manufactures report to the FDA if their device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury, or if their device malfunctioned and the device or a similar device marketed by the manufacturer would be likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur;

	·	corrections and removal reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA field corrections or removals if undertaken to reduce a risk to health posed by a device or to remedy a violation of the FDCA that may present a risk to health; and

	·	post market surveillance regulations, which apply to certain Class II or III devices when necessary to protect the public health or to provide additional safety and effectiveness data for the device.

Some changes to an approved PMA device, including changes in indications, labeling or manufacturing processes or facilities, require submission and FDA approval of a new PMA or PMA supplement, as appropriate, before the change can be implemented. Supplements to a PMA often require the submission of the same type of information required for an original PMA, except that the supplement is generally limited to that information needed to support the proposed change from the device covered by the original PMA. The FDA uses the same procedures and actions in reviewing PMA supplements as it does in reviewing original PMAs.

Failure by us or by our suppliers to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in enforcement action by the FDA or state authorities, which may include any of the following sanctions:

	·	warning or untitled letters, fines, injunctions, consent decrees and civil penalties;

	·	customer notifications, voluntary or mandatory recall or seizure of our products;

	·	operating restrictions, partial suspension or total shutdown of production;

	·	delay in processing submissions or applications for new products or modifications to existing products;

	·	withdrawing approvals that have already been granted; and

	·	criminal prosecution.

The Medical Device Reporting laws and regulations require us to provide information to the FDA when we receive or otherwise become aware of information that reasonably suggests our device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury as well as a device malfunction that likely would cause or contribute to death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur. In addition, the FDA prohibits an approved device from being marketed for off-label use. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of off-label uses, and a company that is found to have improperly promoted off-label uses may be subject to significant liability, including substantial monetary penalties and criminal prosecution.

Newly discovered or developed safety or effectiveness data may require changes to a product’s labeling, including the addition of new warnings and contraindications, and also may require the implementation of other risk management measures. Also, new government requirements, including those resulting from new legislation, may be established, or the FDA’s policies may change, which could delay or prevent regulatory clearance or approval of our products under development.

Healthcare Regulation

In addition to the FDA’s restrictions on marketing of pharmaceutical products, the U.S. healthcare laws and regulations that may affect our ability to operate include: the federal fraud and abuse laws, including the federal anti-kickback and false claims laws; federal data privacy and security laws; and federal transparency laws related to payments and/or other transfers of value made to physicians (defined to include doctors, dentists, optometrists, podiatrists and chiropractors) and other healthcare professionals (such as physicians assistants and nurse practitioners) and teaching hospitals. Many states have similar laws and regulations that may differ from each other and federal law in significant ways, thus complicating compliance efforts. For example, states have anti-kickback and false claims laws that may be broader in scope than analogous federal laws and may apply regardless of payor. In addition, state data privacy laws that protect the security of health information may differ from each other and may not be preempted by federal law. Moreover, several states have enacted legislation requiring pharmaceutical manufacturers to, among other things, establish marketing compliance programs, file periodic reports with the state, make periodic public disclosures on sales and marketing activities, report information related to drug pricing, require the registration of sales representatives, and prohibit certain other sales and marketing practices. These laws may adversely affect our sales, marketing and other activities with respect to any product candidate for which we receive approval to market in the United States by imposing administrative and compliance burdens on us.

Because of the breadth of these laws and the narrowness of available statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors, it is possible that some of our business activities, particularly any sales and marketing activities after a product candidate has been approved for marketing in the United States, could be subject to legal challenge and enforcement actions. If our operations are found to be in violation of any of the federal and state laws described above or any other governmental regulations that apply to us, we may be subject to significant civil, criminal, and administrative penalties, including, without limitation, damages, fines, imprisonment, exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, additional reporting obligations and oversight if we become subject to a corporate integrity agreement or other agreement to resolve allegations of non-compliance with these laws, and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations, any of which could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our results of operations.

From time to time, legislation is drafted and introduced in Congress that could significantly change the statutory provisions governing the regulatory approval, manufacture and marketing of regulated products or the reimbursement thereof. For example, in the United States, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, or collectively, ACA, among other things, reduced and/or limited Medicare reimbursement to certain providers and imposed an annual excise tax of 2.3% on any entity that manufactures or imports medical devices offered for sale in the United States, with limited exceptions. However, the 2020 federal spending package permanently eliminated, effective January 1, 2020, this ACA-mandated medical device tax. On June 17, 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court dismissed a challenge on procedural grounds that argued the ACA is unconstitutional in its entirety because the “individual mandate” was repealed by Congress. Further, on August 16, 2022, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, or IRA, into law, which among other things, extends enhanced subsidies for individuals purchasing health insurance coverage in ACA marketplaces through plan year 2025. The IRA also eliminates the "donut hole" under the Medicare Part D program beginning in 2025 by significantly lowering the beneficiary maximum out-of-pocket cost and creating a new manufacturer discount program. It is possible that the ACA will be subject to judicial or congressional challenges in the future. It is unclear how such challenges and any additional healthcare reform measures will impact the ACA.

Other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the ACA was enacted. The Budget Control Act of 2011, as amended by subsequent legislation, further reduces Medicare’s payments to providers by two percent through fiscal year 2032. These reductions may reduce providers’ revenues or profits, which could affect their ability to purchase new technologies. Furthermore, the healthcare industry in the United States has experienced a trend toward cost containment as government and private insurers seek to control healthcare costs by imposing lower payment rates and negotiating reduced contract rates with service providers. In July 2021, the Biden Administration released an executive order, “Promoting Competition in the American Economy,” which contained provisions relating to prescription drugs. On September 9, 2021, in response to this executive order, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS, released a Comprehensive Plan for Addressing High Drug Prices that outlines principles for drug pricing reform and sets out a variety of potential legislative policies that Congress could pursue as well as potential administrative actions HHS can take to advance these principles. Further, the IRA, among other things (i) directs HHS to negotiate the price of certain high-expenditure, single-source drugs and biologics covered under Medicare and (ii) imposes rebates under Medicare Part B and Medicare Part D to penalize price increases that outpace inflation. These provisions will take effect progressively starting in fiscal year 2023, although they may be subject to legal challenges. HHS has and will continue to issue and update guidance as these programs are implemented. It is currently unclear how the IRA will be implemented but is likely to have a significant impact on the pharmaceutical industry. In addition, in response to the Biden administration’s October 2022 executive order, on February 14, 2023, HHS released a report outlining three new models for testing by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation which will be evaluated on their ability to lower the cost of drugs, promote accessibility, and improve quality of care. It is unclear whether the models will be utilized in any health reform measures in the future.

Legislation could be adopted in the future that limits payments for our products from governmental payors. In addition, commercial payors such as insurance companies could adopt similar policies that limit reimbursement for medical device manufacturers’ products.

Coverage and Reimbursement

In both the U.S. and international markets, the use of medical devices is dependent in part on the availability of reimbursement from third-party payors, such as government and private insurance plans. Healthcare providers that use medical devices generally rely on third-party payors to pay for all or part of the costs and fees associated with the medical procedures being performed or to compensate them for their patient care services. Should our Hemopurifier or any other products under development be approved for commercialization by the FDA, any such products may not be considered cost-effective, reimbursement may not be available in the United States or other countries, if approved, and reimbursement may not be sufficient to allow sales of our future products on a profitable basis. The coverage decisions of third-party payors will be significantly influenced by the assessment of our future products by health technology assessment bodies. If approved for use in the United States, we expect that any products that we develop, including the Hemopurifier, will be purchased primarily by medical institutions, which will in turn bill various third-party payors for the health care services provided to patients at their facility. Payors may include the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, which administers the Medicare program and works in partnership with state governments to administer Medicaid, other government programs and private insurance plans. The process involved in applying for coverage and reimbursement from CMS is lengthy and expensive. Further, Medicare coverage is based on our ability to demonstrate that the treatment is “reasonable and necessary” for Medicare beneficiaries. Even if products utilizing our Hemopurifier technology receive FDA and other regulatory clearance or approval, they may not be granted coverage and reimbursement by any payor, including by CMS. Many private payors use coverage decisions and payment amounts determined by CMS as guidelines in setting their coverage and reimbursement policies and amounts. However, no uniform policy for coverage and reimbursement for medical devices exists among third-party payors in the United States. Therefore, coverage and reimbursement can differ significantly from payor to payor.

Manufacturing

Historically, manufacturing of our Hemopurifier occurred in collaboration with a contract manufacturer based in California under current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations promulgated by the FDA. Our contract manufacturer is registered with the FDA. To date, our manufacture of the Hemopurifier has been limited to quantities necessary to support our clinical studies.

In May 2024, the FDA approved the use of our own manufacturing facility to manufacture Hemopurifiers.

Our costs of compliance with federal, state and local environmental laws have been immaterial to date.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials and the Names of Principal Suppliers

Aethlon personnel assemble the various components of the Hemopurifier with materials from our various suppliers, which are purchased and released by Aethlon. Specifically, the Hemopurifier contains three critical components with limited available suppliers. The GNA lectin is sourced from Vector Laboratories Inc. and also is available from other suppliers. Our intended transition from Vector Laboratories to a new supplier for GNA is delayed as we work with the FDA for approval of our supplement to our IDE, which is required to make this manufacturing change. The base cartridge on which the Hemopurifier is constructed is sourced from Medica S.p.A and we are dependent on the continued availability of these cartridges. Although there are other suppliers, the process of qualifying a new supplier takes time and regulatory approvals must be obtained. We currently purchase the diatomaceous earth from Janus Scientific, Inc., as the distributor; however, the product is manufactured by Imerys Minerals Ltd. There potentially are other suppliers of this product, but as with the cartridges, qualifying and obtaining required regulatory approvals takes time and resources.

Sales and Marketing

We do not currently have any sales and marketing capability. With respect to commercialization efforts in the future, we intend to build or contract for distribution, sales and marketing capabilities for any product candidate that is approved. From time to time, we have had and are having strategic discussions with potential collaboration partners for our product candidates, although no assurance can be given that we will be able to enter into one or more collaboration agreements for our product candidates on acceptable terms, if at all.

Product Liability

The risk of product liability claims, product recalls and associated adverse publicity is inherent in the testing, manufacturing, marketing and sale of medical products. We have limited clinical trial liability insurance coverage. It is possible that future insurance coverage may not be adequate or available. We may not be able to secure product liability insurance coverage on acceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed. Any liability for mandatory damages could exceed the amount of our coverage. A successful product liability claim against us could require us to pay a substantial monetary award. Moreover, a product recall could generate substantial negative publicity about our products and business and inhibit or prevent commercialization of other future product candidates.

Employees

As of June 29, 2026, we had 9 full-time employees and no part-time employees. All of our employees are located in the United States. We do intend to hire additional employees. We utilize, whenever appropriate, consultants in order to conserve cash and resources.

We believe our employee relations are good. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or are subject to collective-bargaining agreements.

If any of these risks actually materialize, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock and the value of the warrants to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment.

Risk Factor Summary

Risks Relating to Our Financial Position and Need for Additional Capital

	·	We have a history of significant operating losses and expect continued losses for the foreseeable future.
	·	Our common stock is currently trading below the $1.00 minimum bid price required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market; if we are unable to regain compliance, our common stock could be delisted, which would materially harm the value of your investment.
	·	We currently have no revenue streams and may not obtain future government contracts or grants.
	·	There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue operations for 12 months following our most recent financial statements.
	·	We plan to raise capital via equity markets, but there is no assurance of success.
	·	Additional financing is essential for operations, clinical trials, regulatory approvals, and product development.
	·	Equity or convertible debt financing may significantly dilute existing stockholders and impact control.
	·	External economic factors, including inflation and market volatility, may impair our ability to raise capital.
	·	Our status as a going concern is uncertain, which could harm our share price, credibility, and commercial relationships.
	·	Inability to continue as a going concern may lead to drastic cost-cutting or even ceasing operations.
	·	Employee morale, key personnel retention, and vendor relationships may be adversely affected by going concern doubts.

Risks Related to the Offering

	·	The Offering is on a best-efforts basis with no minimum; we may raise less capital than needed.
	·	Investors may experience immediate and substantial dilution in the value of their shares upon purchase.
	·	Further dilution could occur from future option, warrant, or stock issuances.
	·	We have broad discretion in how we use offering proceeds, which may be used ineffectively.
	·	Future sales or the perception of sales of our common stock could depress our stock price.
	·	Common Warrant holders have no stockholder rights until exercise and may not realize value if our stock price stays low.
	·	No public market exists for the offered warrants or pre-funded warrants, limiting their liquidity and value.
	·	We will not receive meaningful funds upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants.
	·	Pre-funded warrants are subject to beneficial ownership limits, potentially preventing holders from exercising when it is financially advantageous.
	·	If we do not obtain Stockholder Approval, holders of our common warrants will be unable to exercise their warrants, and we will not receive any proceeds from the exercise of the common warrants.
	·	We are required to hold a special meeting of stockholders to seek Stockholder Approval no later than October 1, 2026; there can be no assurance that our stockholders will approve the required proposal at that meeting or at any subsequent meeting.

Reverse Stock Split

On June 6, 2025, the Company completed a reverse split of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-8. In connection with the reverse stock split, every 8 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were automatically converted into one share of the Company’s common stock. Any fractional shares resulting from the reverse split were rounded up to the next whole share. All common stock amounts and prices in this Prospectus reflect the consummation of the reverse split.

Our Corporate Information

Smaller Reporting Company

We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosure available for smaller reporting companies.

The Offering

Common stock offered by us

Up to 4,705,882 shares.

Pre-funded warrants

We are also offering to those purchasers, if any, whose purchase of common stock in the Offering would otherwise result in such purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity, in lieu of purchasing common stock, to purchase pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 4,705,882 shares of our common stock. For each pre-funded warrant we sell, the number of shares of common stock we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. The purchase price of each pre-funded warrant will equal the price per share at which the shares of common stock and accompanying warrants to purchase common stock are being sold to the public in the Company Offering, minus $0.001, and the exercise price of each pre-funded warrant will be $0.001 per share of common stock.

Each pre-funded warrant will be exercisable immediately upon issuance and will not expire. This prospectus also relates to the offering of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such pre-funded warrants. See “Description of the Securities We are Offering—Pre-Funded Warrants” for a discussion on the terms of the pre-funded warrants. Each pre-funded warrant is exercisable for one share of our common stock (subject to adjustment as provided therein) at any time at the option of the holder, provided that the holder will be prohibited from exercising its pre-funded warrant for shares of our common stock if, as a result of such exercise, the holder, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, would own more than 4.99% of the total number of shares of our common stock then issued and outstanding. However, any holder may increase such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99%, provided that any increase in such percentage shall not be effective until 61 days after notice to us.

Common Warrants	Common Warrants to purchase up to 4,705,882 shares of our common stock. Each share of our common stock, or pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof, is being sold together with a warrant to purchase one share of our common stock. Each warrant will have an initial exercise price of $0.85 per share (representing 100% of the combined public offering price per share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) in the Offering and accompanying warrant in this Offering), subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of recapitalization events, stock dividends, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock. The warrants will be exercisable beginning on the effective date of the Stockholder Approval, provided however, if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants will be exercisable upon the Initial Exercise Date. This prospectus also relates to the offering of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants.

	To better understand the terms of the warrants, you should carefully read the “Description of Securities We are Offering – Warrants”. You should also read the form of warrant, which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement that includes this Prospectus.

Placement agent warrants	We have agreed to issue to the placement agent warrants to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to 4% of the total number of shares of common stock issued in this offering. The placement agent’s warrant will be non-exercisable for six (6) months after the date of the closing and will expire five years after the date of shareholder approval. The placement agent’s warrant will be exercisable for the purchase of shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to the combined purchase price per share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) and accompanying warrant in this offering. We are also registering the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the placement agent’s warrants

Common stock outstanding after the Offering	7,076,442 shares, (assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and assuming none of the warrants to purchase common stock issued in this offering or the placement agent’s warrant issued in this Offering are exercised).

Use of proceeds	We currently intend to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes which will include research and development expenses, clinical trial expenses, capital expenditures and working capital. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds from the Offering to in-license, acquire, or invest in complementary businesses, technologies, products or assets. Pending use of the net proceeds, we intend to invest the proceeds in a variety of capital preservation instruments, including short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments.

Offering Price	$0.85 per share.

Listing Information	Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “AEMD.”

Risk Factors	An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See the section entitled “Risk Factors” of this Prospectus and the similarly titled sections in the documents incorporated by reference into this Prospectus.

Lock-up	We along with our officers, and directors have agreed with the placement agent, to not offer for sale, issue, sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of any common stock or securities convertible into common stock for a period of 90 days after the date of this Prospectus.

The number of shares of our common stock to be outstanding after this Offering is based on 2,370,560 shares of common stock outstanding as of June 29, 2026 and excludes as of such date:

·		659 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options under our equity incentive plan at a weighted-average exercise price of $1,305.04 per share;
·		87,260 shares of common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding restricted stock units;
·		132,109 shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our equity incentive plan; and
·		1,957,490 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding warrants at a weighted-average exercise price of $6.48 per share.

RISK FACTORS

Risks Relating to Our Financial Position and Need for Additional Capital

Our common stock is currently trading below the $1.00 minimum bid price required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and we may be unable to regain compliance.

Nasdaq Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed companies to maintain a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share. On June 29, 2026, the closing bid price of our common stock was $0.85 per share, which is below this threshold. If our common stock remains below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will generally notify us that we are no longer in compliance with its minimum bid price requirement. Subject to the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules, we would generally be afforded a compliance period to regain compliance by maintaining a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for the required period. We may seek to regain compliance through a reverse stock split; however, having completed a 1-for-8 reverse stock split in June 2025, there can be no assurance that any additional reverse stock split would result in a sustained increase in our stock price sufficient to regain or maintain compliance. In addition, further reverse stock splits may be viewed negatively by investors. Nasdaq rules limit a company's eligibility for an automatic compliance period following a bid price deficiency if it has recently effected reverse stock splits. In particular, a company that has effected one or more reverse stock splits during the prior one-year period, or reverse stock splits during the prior two-year period with a cumulative ratio of 250-to-1 or greater, generally is not eligible for an automatic compliance period and may instead be subject to a Staff Delisting Determination. Although our June 20, 2025 1-for-8 reverse stock split does not approach the 250-to-1 threshold, any additional reverse stock split completed within the applicable two-year lookback period would likely be aggregated with our prior reverse stock split. Nasdaq also retains discretion to delist companies where continued listing is not consistent with the public interest or the protection of investors.

If we are unable to regain compliance or otherwise satisfy Nasdaq's continued listing standards, our common stock could be delisted. A delisting would likely reduce the liquidity of our common stock, limit analyst coverage, impair our ability to raise capital, and could trigger provisions under our existing agreements and outstanding warrants, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and the value of your investment.

We have incurred significant losses and expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

We have never been profitable. We did not generate any revenue during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025. In prior fiscal years we recorded revenue from government contracts. We do not currently have any research grants or contracts. It is possible that we may not be able to enter into future government contracts. Future profitability, if any, will require the successful commercialization of our Hemopurifier technology or any other product that we develop or from additional government contract or grant income we may obtain. We may not be able to successfully commercialize the Hemopurifier or any other products, and even if commercialization is successful, we may never be profitable. While we had approximately $5 million in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026, and have been carrying out certain expense reductions since November 2023, our planned additional expense reductions may not materialize and/or our patient recruitment may occur more rapidly than expected along with the concomitant increases in expenses; therefore there is substantial doubt that our cash on hand will carry the company for 12 months beyond the filing date of the financial statements included in the Annual Report for the period ended March 31, 2026.

We do plan to access the equity markets for additional capital, however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to access such additional capital.

We will require additional financing to sustain our operations, achieve our business objectives and satisfy our cash obligations, which may dilute the ownership of our existing stockholders.

We will require significant additional financing for our operations and for expected additional future clinical trials in the United States and Australia, regulatory clearances, and continued research and development activities for the Hemopurifier and other future products. In addition, as we expand our activities, our overhead costs to support personnel, laboratory materials and infrastructure will increase. We may also choose to raise additional funds in debt or equity financings if they are available to us on reasonable terms to increase our working capital and to strengthen our financial position. Any sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities could result in dilution of the equity interests of our existing stockholders. Additionally, new investors may require that we and certain of our stockholders enter into voting arrangements that give them additional voting control or representation on our Board of Directors. If required financing is unavailable to us on reasonable terms, or at all, we may be unable to support our operations, including our research and development activities, which would have a material adverse effect on our ability to commercialize our products or continue our business.

Our ability to raise additional funds may be adversely impacted by our ability to remain listed on Nasdaq, the potential worsening global economic conditions and disruptions to and volatility in the credit and financial markets in the United States, including due to bank failures, actual or perceived changes in interest rates and economic inflation, and worldwide resulting from macroeconomic factors. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, we cannot predict the timing or amount of increased expenses and cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable or generate positive cash flow from operating activities.

If the proposed Nasdaq rule to adopt a $5 million minimum market value of listed securities standard is approved and we fail to comply, our common stock could be suspended and delisted, which would materially harm our business.

Nasdaq has submitted a proposed rule change (SR-NASDAQ-2025-068) to the Securities and Exchange Commission to amend its continued listing standards to require listed companies to maintain a minimum market value of listed securities of $5 million. This proposal has not yet been approved by the SEC and may be modified or not adopted at all. If the proposal is approved in its current or a similar form, and if the market value of our listed securities were to fall below $5 million for a sustained period, we could become subject to delisting proceedings. Under the proposed rule, companies that fail to satisfy the $5 million market value of listed securities requirement for 30 consecutive business days would be subject to a delisting determination by Nasdaq. Unlike existing Nasdaq continued listing standards, the proposal contemplates limited or no compliance period to regain compliance, which could result in the immediate suspension and delisting of our common stock. If our common stock is delisted, it could significantly reduce the liquidity of our securities, adversely affect the market price of our common stock, reduce the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our common stock, and impair our ability to raise additional capital. In addition, delisting could reduce analyst coverage and investor interest in our company and may harm our reputation and business prospects.

We may not currently or in the future be able to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement, of which the Prospectus is a part, have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which assumes that we will continue as a going concern, and do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate revenues and raise capital. To date, we have not generated sufficient revenues to provide cash flows that enable us to finance our operations internally. In connection with an evaluation conducted by our management during the preparation of the financial statements incorporated by reference herein, management concluded that there were conditions and events which raised substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within twelve months after the date of the issuance of the financial statements included in this incorporated by reference herein.

The uncertainty regarding our ability to continue as a going concern could materially adversely affect our share price and our ability to service our indebtedness, raise new capital or enter into commercial transactions. To address these matters, we may take actions that materially and adversely affect our business, including significant reductions in research, development, administrative and commercial activities, reduction of our employee base, and ultimately curtailing or ceasing operations, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and share price. In addition, doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern could impact our relationships with partners, vendors and other third parties and our ability to obtain, maintain or renew contracts with them, or negatively impact our negotiating leverage with such parties, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, any loss of key personnel, employee attrition or material erosion of employee morale arising out of doubts about our ability to operate as a going concern could have a material adverse effect on our ability to effectively conduct our business and could impair our ability to execute our strategy and implement our business objectives, thereby having a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to the Offering

The Offering is a best-efforts offering, no minimum amount of securities is required to be sold, and we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our business plans, including our near-term business plans.

The placement agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the securities in the Company Offering. The placement agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities. There is no required minimum number of securities that must be sold as a condition to completion of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of the Company Offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent fees and proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth herein. We may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to support our continued operations, including our near-term continued operations. Thus, we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our operations in the short-term and may need to raise additional funds to complete such short-term operations. Such additional fundraises may not be available or available on terms acceptable to us.

If you purchase our securities in the Offering you may incur immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your shares.

The combined public offering price per share of our common stock and accompanying warrant may be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately prior to the offering. After giving effect to the assumed sale of shares of our common stock and accompanying warrants in this Offering, at an assumed combined public offering price of $0.85 per share and accompanying warrant (the last reported sale price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on June 29, 2026), and after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us and attributing no value to the warrants sold in this offering, purchasers of our common stock in this offering will incur immediate accretion of $0.46 per share in the net tangible book value of the common stock they acquire. In the event that you exercise your warrants, you may experience additional dilution to the extent that the exercise price of the warrants is higher than the tangible book value per share of our common stock. For a further description of the dilution that investors in this offering may experience, see “Dilution.”

In addition, to the extent that outstanding stock options or warrants, have been or may be exercised, outstanding restricted stock units have been or may be settled or other shares are issued, you may experience further dilution.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds we receive from the Offering and may not use them effectively.

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds we receive in the Offering, including for any of the purposes described in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds,” and you will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess whether our management is using the net proceeds appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of our net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business and cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. If additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, or perceptions that those sales could occur, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to investors purchasing our common stock in this offering or result in downward pressure on the price of our common stock, and our ability to raise capital in the future.

If we do not obtain Stockholder Approval, when required, holders of our common warrants whose exercise is subject to Stockholder Approval, will be unable to exercise their warrants, which could adversely affect the value of the warrants and your investment.

If the Pricing Conditions are not met, the common warrants offered in this offering are not exercisable until we have obtained Stockholder Approval, meaning the approval by our stockholders, in accordance with applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules, of the issuance of all shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the common warrants to the extent required under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, we are required to hold a special or annual meeting of stockholders for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval no later than October 1, 2026, and, if Stockholder Approval is not obtained at such initial meeting, to continue to seek Stockholder Approval at each subsequent annual meeting of stockholders until obtained, but in no event later than the date of the second annual meeting of stockholders following the closing date of this offering.

There can be no assurance that we will obtain Stockholder Approval within the required timeframe or at all. Our stockholders may fail to approve the proposal for any reason, or a quorum may not be present at the meeting. Until Stockholder Approval is obtained, holders of common warrants will have no right to exercise their warrants and will therefore be unable to acquire any shares of our common stock underlying the warrants. If we are unable to obtain Stockholder Approval, the common warrants may have little or no value. Additionally, any delay in obtaining Stockholder Approval could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the value of the warrants during the period in which the warrants remain unexercisable. The inability to exercise the warrants could result in a complete loss of your investment in the warrants.

Holders of our common warrants and pre-funded warrants will have no rights as a common stockholder until they acquire our common stock.

Until you acquire shares of our common stock upon exercise of your warrants or pre-funded warrants, you will have no rights with respect to shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of your warrants or pre-funded warrants. Upon exercise of your warrants or pre-funded warrants, you will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

The warrants may not have any value.

Each warrant will have an exercise price of not less than 100% of the last reported sale price of our common stock as of the close of the trading day immediately preceding the pricing of this offering and will expire on the 5th anniversary of the date they were issued. In the event our common stock price does not exceed the exercise price of the warrants during the period when the warrants are exercisable, the warrants may not have any value.

There is no public market for the common warrants to purchase shares of our common stock or pre-funded warrants being offered in this offering.

There is no established public trading market for the common warrants or pre-funded warrants being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the common warrants or pre-funded warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system, including The Nasdaq Capital Market. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the common warrants and pre-funded warrants will be limited.

We will not receive any meaningful amount of additional funds upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants.

Each Pre-Funded Warrant will be exercisable until it is fully exercised and by means of payment of the nominal cash purchase price upon exercise. Accordingly, we will not receive any meaningful additional funds upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants.

Significant holders or beneficial holders of shares of our common stock may not be permitted to exercise the Pre-Funded Warrants that they hold.

A holder of the Pre-Funded Warrants will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Pre-Funded Warrant that, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause: (i) the aggregate number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, upon election of holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise; or (ii) the combined voting power of our securities beneficially owned by such holder (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, upon election of holder, 9.99%) of the combined voting power of all of our securities outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants. As a result, you may not be able to exercise your Pre-Funded Warrants for shares of our common stock at a time when it would be financially beneficial for you to do so. In such a circumstance, you could seek to sell your Pre-Funded Warrants to realize value, but you may be unable to do so in the absence of an established trading market and due to applicable transfer restrictions.

You should carefully read this prospectus, the documents that we incorporate by reference into this prospectus and the documents we reference in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement, of which this Prospectus is a part, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of the forward-looking statements in this prospectus by these cautionary statements.

Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

This prospectus also refers to estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other data about our industry. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the markets in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The Offering

We estimate that the net proceeds of the Offering will be approximately $3.335 million, based on the assumed combined public offering price of $0.85 per share and accompanying warrant (the last reported sale price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on June 29, 2026), after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the warrants. We may only receive additional proceeds from the exercise of the common warrants issuable in connection with this offering if the Stockholder Approval is obtained and, if such common warrants are exercised in full for cash, the additional gross proceeds will be approximately $4 million before deducting any expenses associated with such exercises. Each $0.20 increase (decrease) in the assumed combined public offering price of $0.85 per share and accompanying warrant would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $0.90 million, assuming the number of shares and warrants offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We may also increase or decrease the number of shares of our common stock and warrants we are offering. Each 1.0 million share increase (decrease) in the number of shares sold in this offering would increase (decrease) the expected net proceeds of the offering to us by approximately $0.71 million, assuming that the assumed combined public offering price per share and accompanying warrant remains the same.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds of the Offering for general corporate purposes, which will include research and development expenses, clinical trial expenses, capital expenditures and working capital. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds from the Offering to in-license, acquire, or invest in complementary businesses, technologies, products or assets. However, we have no current plans, commitments or obligations to do so. Pending use of the net proceeds, we intend to invest the proceeds in a variety of capital preservation instruments, including short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments.

We cannot currently allocate specific percentages of the net proceeds to us from the Offering that we may use for the purposes specified above and our management will have broad discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds.

DILUTION

Note Regarding Post-Period Share Issuances: The dilution calculations and table set forth below are based on 1,570,449 shares of our common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026, the date of our most recent consolidated balance sheet incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. Subsequent to March 31, 2026 and prior to the date of this prospectus supplement, we sold an aggregate of 800,111 shares of our common stock pursuant to our at-the-market facility. These subsequent issuances are not reflected in the dilution calculations below. If these shares were included in the calculation of our pre-offering net tangible book value per share, our net tangible book value per share as of March 31, 2026, as adjusted for these issuances, would be lower than the $3.11 per share figure presented below, and the dilution analysis would differ materially from the information presented. Prospective investors should be aware that the figures presented below do not reflect this significant subsequent issuance activity.

If you purchase our securities in the Company Offering, you may experience dilution to the extent of the difference between the combined public offering price per share and accompanying warrant in the Offering and our as adjusted net tangible book value per share immediately after the Company Offering, assuming no value is attributed to the warrants, and such warrants are accounted for and classified as equity. Net tangible book value per share is equal to the amount of our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, divided by the number of outstanding shares of our common stock. As of March 31, 2026, our net tangible book value was approximately $4.9 million, or approximately $3.11 per share.

After giving effect to the assumed sale by us of 4,705,882 shares of our common stock (assuming no pre-funded warrants in lieu of common stock are issued) and warrants to purchase up to 4,705,882 shares of our common stock in this offering at an assumed combined public offering price of $0.85 per share and accompanying warrant (the last reported sale price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on June 29, 2026), assuming no exercise of the warrants or the placement agent’s warrant and after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2026 would have been approximately $8.2 million, or approximately $1.31 per share. This represents an immediate decrease in net tangible book value of $1.80 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate accretion of $0.46 per share to new investors purchasing shares of our common stock and accompanying warrants in this offering, attributing none of the assumed combined public offering price to the warrants offered hereby. The following table illustrates this per share accretion:

Assumed combined public offering price per share and accompanying warrant				$	0.85
Net tangible book value per share as of March 31, 2026	$	3.11
Decrease in net tangible book value per share after this offering		(1.80	)

As adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering					1.31

Accretion per share to new investors				$	0.46

A $0.20 increase in the assumed combined public offering price of $0.85 per share and accompanying warrant (the last reported sale price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market on June 29, 2026 was $0.85) would result in an increase in our as adjusted net tangible book value after this offering of approximately $9.1 million, or approximately $1.45 per share, and the accretion per share to investors purchasing common stock and accompanying warrants in this offering would be approximately $0.40 per share, assuming that the number of shares of our common stock and accompanying warrants sold by us remains the same, after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. Similarly, a decrease of $0.20 in the assumed combined public offering price of $0.85 per share and accompanying warrant would result in a decrease in our as adjusted net tangible book value after this offering of approximately $7.3 million, or approximately $1.17 per share, and the accretion per share to investors purchasing common stock and accompanying warrants in this offering would be $0.52 per share, assuming that the number of shares of our common stock and accompanying warrants sold by us remains the same, after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We may also increase or decrease the number of shares of common stock and accompanying warrants we are offering from the number of shares of common stock and accompanying warrants set forth above. An increase of 1.0 million in the assumed number of shares of common stock and accompanying warrants sold by us in this offering would result in an increase in our as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $9.0 million, or approximately $1.24 per share, and the accretion per share to investors purchasing common stock and accompanying warrants in this offering would be approximately $0.39 per share, assuming that the assumed combined public offering price per share of common stock and accompanying warrant remains the same, after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. A decrease of 1.0 million in the assumed number of shares of common stock and accompanying warrants sold by us in this offering would result in a decrease in our as adjusted net tangible book value after this offering of approximately $7.4 million, or approximately $1.41 per share, and the accretion per share to investors purchasing common stock and accompanying warrants in this offering would be approximately $0.56 per share, assuming that the assumed combined public offering price per share of common stock and accompanying warrant remains the same, after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The information discussed above is illustrative only and will adjust based on the actual public offering price, the actual number of shares of common stock and accompanying warrants sold in this offering and other terms of this offering determined at pricing.

The discussion and table above assume (i) no exercise of the placement agent’s warrant or the warrants issued in this offering and (ii) no sale of pre-funded warrants in this offering.

The table and discussion above are based on 1,570,449 shares of our common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and excludes as of such date:

	·	659 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options under our equity incentive plan at a weighted-average exercise price of $1,305.04 per share;
	·	87,260 shares of common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding restricted stock units;
	·	132,109 shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our equity incentive plan;
	·	1,957,490 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding warrants at a weighted-average exercise price of $6.48 per share; and
	·	800,111 shares of common stock sold pursuant to the Company’s ATM facility, subsequent to the period ended, March 31, 2026.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of our capital stock is intended as a summary only and therefore is not a complete description of our capital stock. This description is based upon, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our articles of incorporation, our bylaws and applicable provisions of Nevada corporate law. You should read our articles of incorporation and bylaws, which have been publicly filed with the SEC, for the provisions that are important to you.

Authorized Capital Stock

Our authorized capital consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of June 29, 2026, there were 2,370,560 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Common Stock

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. If we liquidate, dissolve or wind up, holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of all debts and other liabilities. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, conversion or subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock.

Our bylaws provide that stockholders representing a majority of the voting power of our capital stock, represented in person or by proxy (regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on all matters), are necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting, but at any time during which shares of our capital stock are listed for trading on Nasdaq, stockholders representing not less than 33 1/3% of the voting power of our capital stock, represented in person or by proxy (regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on all matters), are necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of stockholders. Except as otherwise required or permitted by Nevada law or our articles of incorporation or bylaws, action by the stockholders entitled to vote on a matter, other than the election of directors, is approved by and is the act of the stockholders if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action. If a quorum is present, directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Nevada Law and Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

Nevada’s “combinations with interested stockholders” statutes, NRS 78.411 through 78.444, inclusive, prohibit specified types of business “combinations” between certain Nevada corporations and any person deemed to be an “interested stockholder” for two years after such person first becomes an “interested stockholder” unless the corporation’s board of directors approves the combination (or the transaction by which such person becomes an “interested stockholder”) in advance, or unless the combination is approved by the board of directors and sixty percent of the corporation’s voting power not beneficially owned by the interested stockholder, its affiliates and associates. Further, in the absence of prior approval certain restrictions may apply even after such two year period. However, these statutes do not apply to any combination of a corporation and an interested stockholder after the expiration of four years after the person first became an interested stockholder. For purposes of these statutes, an “interested stockholder” is any person who is (1) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or (2) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the two previous years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term “combination” is sufficiently broad to cover most significant transactions between a corporation and an “interested stockholder.” These statutes generally apply to Nevada corporations with 200 or more stockholders of record. However, a Nevada corporation may elect in its articles of incorporation not to be governed by these particular laws, but if such election is not made in the corporation’s original articles of incorporation, the amendment (1) must be approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of stock representing a majority of the outstanding voting power of the corporation not beneficially owned by interested stockholders or their affiliates and associates, and (2) is not effective until 18 months after the vote approving the amendment and does not apply to any combination with a person who first became an interested stockholder on or before the effective date of the amendment. We did not make such an election in our original articles of incorporation and have not amended our articles of incorporation to so elect.

Nevada’s “acquisition of controlling interest” statutes (NRS 78.378 through 78.3793, inclusive) contain provisions governing the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain Nevada corporations. These “control share” laws provide generally that any person that acquires a “controlling interest” in certain Nevada corporations may be denied voting rights, unless a majority of the disinterested stockholders of the corporation elects to restore such voting rights. Our bylaws provide that these statutes do not apply to us or any acquisition of our common stock. Absent such provision in our bylaws, these laws would apply to us as of a particular date if we were to have 200 or more stockholders of record (at least 100 of whom have addresses in Nevada appearing on our stock ledger at all times during the 90 days immediately preceding that date) and do business in the State of Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation, unless our articles of incorporation or bylaws in effect on the tenth day after the acquisition of a controlling interest provide otherwise. These laws provide that a person acquires a “controlling interest” whenever a person acquires shares of a subject corporation that, but for the application of these provisions of the NRS, would enable that person to exercise (1) one fifth or more, but less than one third, (2) one third or more, but less than a majority or (3) a majority or more, of all of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors. Once an acquirer crosses one of these thresholds, shares which it acquired in the transaction taking it over the threshold and within the 90 days immediately preceding the date when the acquiring person acquired or offered to acquire a controlling interest become “control shares” to which the voting restrictions described above apply.

NRS 78.139 also provides that directors may resist a change or potential change in control of the corporation if the board of directors determines that the change or potential change is opposed to or not in the best interest of the corporation upon consideration of any relevant facts, circumstances, contingencies or constituencies pursuant to NRS 78.138(4).

In addition, our authorized but unissued shares of common stock are available for our Board of Directors to issue without stockholder approval. We may use these additional shares for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public or private offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of our authorized but unissued shares of common stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or other transaction. Our authorized but unissued shares may be used to delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider in its best interest, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by our stockholders. The Board of Directors is also authorized to adopt, amend or repeal our Bylaws, which could delay, defer or prevent a change in control.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Company Offering

We are offering (i) up to 4,705,882 shares of our common stock or pre-funded warrants and (ii) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,705,882 shares of our common stock. Each share of common stock or pre-funded warrant is being sold together with a warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The shares of common stock or pre-funded warrants and accompanying warrants will be issued separately. We are also registering the shares of common stock issuable from time to time upon exercise of the pre-funded warrants and warrants offered hereby.

Common Stock

The material terms and provisions of our common stock and each other class of our securities which, if designated and issued, qualifies or limits our common stock are described under the caption “Description of Capital Stock” in this prospectus.

Pre-Funded Warrants

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the pre-funded warrants that are being offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by the provisions of, the pre-funded warrant. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of pre-funded warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the pre-funded warrants.

The term “pre-funded” refers to the fact that the purchase price of each pre-funded warrant, at closing, will equal the price per share at which shares of our common stock and accompanying warrants to purchase common stock are being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.001, and the exercise price of each pre-funded warrant will equal $0.001 per share of common stock. The purpose of the pre-funded warrants is to enable investors that may have restrictions on their ability to beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, upon election of the holder, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock following the consummation of this offering the opportunity to invest capital into us without triggering their ownership restrictions, by receiving pre-funded warrants in lieu of our common stock to the extent it would result in such ownership of more than 4.99% (or 9.99%), and receive the ability to purchase the shares underlying the pre-funded warrants at such nominal price at a later date.

Form. The pre-funded warrants will be issued in paper form as individual warrant agreements to the investors.

Duration. The pre-funded warrants offered hereby will entitle the holders thereof to purchase shares of our common stock at a nominal exercise price of $0.001 per share, commencing immediately on the date of issuance. The pre-funded warrants do not expire.

Exercise Limitation. A holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of the pre-funded warrant if the holder (together with its affiliates and certain related parties) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, upon election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the pre-funded warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage, provided that any increase will not be effective until the 61st day after notice of such election is provided to us.

Exercise Price. The pre-funded warrants will have an exercise price of $0.001 per share. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our common stock and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our stockholders.

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the pre-funded warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.

Exchange Listing. There is no established trading market for the pre-funded warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for the listing of the pre-funded warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the pre-funded warrants will be limited.

Fundamental Transactions. If a fundamental transaction occurs, then the successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for us, and may exercise every right and power that we may exercise and will assume all of our obligations under the pre-funded warrants with the same effect as if such successor entity had been named in the pre-funded warrant itself. If holders of our common stock are given a choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a fundamental transaction, then the holder shall be given the same choice as to the consideration it receives upon any exercise of the pre-funded warrant following such fundamental transaction.

Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the pre-funded warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holder of a pre-funded warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our common stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the pre-funded warrant.

Common Warrants

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the common warrants offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the common warrant, the form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the common warrants. In addition, the terms of the common warrant to be issued to the placement agent will generally be the same as the common warrants issued to investors in this offering, except that such common warrant will not be exercisable until receipt of Stockholder Approval.

Form. The common warrants will be delivered to a purchaser in certificated form.

Stockholder Approval. The common warrants will be exercisable beginning on the effective date of the Stockholder Approval, provided however, if the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants will be exercisable upon Initial Exercise Date. "Stockholder Approval" means the approval by our stockholders, in accordance with applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules, of the issuance of all shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the common warrants to the extent such issuance would require stockholder approval under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), which requires stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with a transaction other than a public offering if such issuance equals 20% or more of the common stock or voting power outstanding before the issuance at a price less than the Minimum Price (as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, if Stockholder Approval is required, we are required to hold a special or annual meeting of stockholders for the purpose of obtaining Stockholder Approval no later than October 1, 2026, and, if Stockholder Approval is not obtained at such meeting, to continue to seek Stockholder Approval at each subsequent annual meeting of stockholders until Stockholder Approval is obtained, but in no event later than the date of the second annual meeting of stockholders following the closing date of this offering. There can be no assurance that we will obtain Stockholder Approval within the required timeframe or at all. Until Stockholder Approval is obtained, holders of common warrants subject to such, will have no right to exercise their warrants and will therefore have no right to acquire the underlying shares of common stock.

Exercisability. If the Pricing Conditions are met, the common warrants are exercisable immediately. Otherwise, the common warrants are exercisable at any time after Stockholder Approval and at any time up to the date that is five years after their original issuance. The common warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and, at any time a Registration Statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the common warrants under the Securities Act is effective and available for the issuance of such shares, or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is available for the issuance of such shares, by payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of common stock purchased upon such exercise. If a Registration Statement registering the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying the common warrants under the Securities Act is not effective or available and an exemption from registration under the Securities Act is not available for the issuance of such shares, the holder may, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise the common warrant through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the warrant. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a common warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the exercise price.

Exercise Limitation. A holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of the common warrant if the holder (together with its affiliates and certain related parties) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, upon election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the common warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage, provided that any increase will not be effective until the 61st day after notice of such election is provided to us.

Exercise Price. The common warrants will have an exercise price of $0.85 per share. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our common stock and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our stockholders.

Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.

Exchange Listing. There is no established trading market for the common warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for the listing of the common warrants on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the common warrants will be limited.

Fundamental Transactions. If a fundamental transaction occurs, then the successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for us, under the common warrants and will assume all of our obligations thereunder. If holders of our common stock are given a choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a fundamental transaction, then the holder shall be given the same choice as to the consideration it receives upon any exercise of the warrant following such fundamental transaction, then each holder of a common warrant will be given the same choice upon any subsequent exercise. . We are required to cause any successor entity to assume in writing all of our obligations under the warrants prior to the consummation of any fundamental transaction, and, at the option of the holder, to deliver to the holder a replacement security of the successor entity substantially similar in form and substance to the common warrant and exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of the successor entity's capital stock.

Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the common warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holder of a common warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our common stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the common warrant.

CERTAIN MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following is a discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our shares of common stock. This discussion applies only to shares of common stock that are held as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is applicable only to holders who are receiving our shares of common stock being offered in this prospectus.

This discussion is a summary only and does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, including but not limited to the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on certain investment income and the different consequences (such as the effects of Section 451 of the Code) that may apply if you are subject to special rules that apply to certain types of investors, including but not limited to:

	·	financial institutions or financial services entities;
	·	broker-dealers;
	·	governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof;
	·	regulated investment companies;
	·	real estate investment trusts;
	·	expatriates or former long-term residents of the U.S.;
	·	persons that actually or constructively own five percent or more of our voting shares;
	·	insurance companies;
	·	dealers or traders subject to a mark-to-market method of accounting with respect to the common stock;
	·	persons holding the common stock as part of a “straddle,” hedge, integrated transaction or similar transaction;
	·	U.S. holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;
	·	partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes and any beneficial owners of such entities; and
	·	tax-exempt entities.

This discussion is based on the Code, and administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations as of the date hereof, which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis, and changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this prospectus may affect the tax consequences described herein. This discussion does not address any aspect of state, local or non-U.S. taxation, or any U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes (such as gift and estate taxes).

We have not sought, and will not seek, a ruling from the IRS as to any U.S. federal income tax consequence described herein. The IRS may disagree with the discussion herein, and its determination may be upheld by a court. Moreover, there can be no assurance that future legislation, regulations, administrative rulings or court decisions will not adversely affect the accuracy of the statements in this discussion. You are urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the application of U.S. federal tax laws to your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction.

This discussion does not consider the tax treatment of partnerships or other pass-through entities or persons who hold our common stock through such entities. If a partnership (or other entity or arrangement classified as a partnership or other pass-through entity for United States federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our common stock, the United States federal income tax treatment of a partner or member in the partnership or other pass-through entity generally will depend on the status of the partner or member and the activities of the partnership or other pass-through entity. If you are a partner or member of a partnership or other pass-through entity holding our common stock, we urge you to consult your own tax advisor.

THIS DISCUSSION IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON STOCK. EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IN OUR COMMON STOCK IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH INVESTOR OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON STOCK, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL NON-INCOME, STATE, LOCAL, AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS.

U.S. holders

This section applies to you if you are a “U.S. holder.” A U.S. holder is a beneficial owner of our shares of common stock who or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

	·	an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;
	·	a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation) organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
	·	an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or
	·	a trust, if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons (as defined in the Code) have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) it has a valid election in effect under Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

Taxation of Distributions. If we pay distributions in cash or other property (other than certain distributions of our stock or rights to acquire our stock) to U.S. holders of shares of our common stock, such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in our common stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the common stock and will be treated as described under “U.S. Holders—Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of common stock” below.

Dividends we pay to a U.S. holder that is a taxable corporation generally will qualify for the dividends received deduction if the requisite holding period is satisfied. With certain exceptions (including, but not limited to, dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations), and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends we pay to a non-corporate U.S. holder may constitute “qualified dividends” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains. If the holding period requirements are not satisfied, then a corporation may not be able to qualify for the dividends received deduction and would have taxable income equal to the entire dividend amount, and non-corporate holders may be subject to tax on such dividend at regular ordinary income tax rates instead of the preferential rate that applies to qualified dividend income.

Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of common stock. Upon a sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock, a U.S. holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the common stock. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period for the common stock so disposed of exceeds one year. If the holding period requirements are not satisfied, any gain on a sale or taxable disposition of the shares would be subject to short-term capital gain treatment and would be taxed at regular ordinary income tax rates. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Generally, the amount of gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder is an amount equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received in such disposition and (ii) the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock so disposed of. A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock generally will equal the U.S. holder’s acquisition cost for the common stock or less, in the case of a share of common stock, any prior distributions treated as a return of capital. In the case of any shares of common stock originally acquired as part of an investment unit, the acquisition cost for the share of common stock that were part of such unit would equal an allocable portion of the acquisition cost of the unit based on the relative fair market values of the components of the unit at the time of acquisition.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. In general, information reporting requirements may apply to dividends paid to a U.S. holder and to the proceeds of the sale or other disposition of our shares of common stock, unless the U.S. holder is an exempt recipient. Backup withholding may apply to such payments if the U.S. holder fails to provide a taxpayer identification number, a certification of exempt status or has been notified by the IRS that it is subject to backup withholding (and such notification has not been withdrawn).

Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally should be allowed as a refund or a credit against a U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Non-U.S. holders

This section applies to you if you are a “Non-U.S. holder.” As used herein, the term “Non-U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of our common stock who or that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

	·	a non-resident alien individual (other than certain former citizens and residents of the U.S. subject to U.S. tax as expatriates);
	·	a foreign corporation or
	·	an estate or trust that is not a U.S. holder;

but generally does not include an individual who is present in the U.S. for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition. If you are such an individual, you should consult your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership or sale or other disposition of our common stock.

Taxation of Distributions. In general, any distributions we make to a Non-U.S. holder of shares of our common stock, to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, provided such dividends are not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, we will be required to withhold tax from the gross amount of the dividend at a rate of 30%, unless such Non-U.S. holder is eligible for a reduced rate of withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty and provides proper certification of its eligibility for such reduced rate (usually on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E). Any distribution not constituting a dividend will be treated first as reducing (but not below zero) the Non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its shares of our common stock and, to the extent such distribution exceeds the Non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis, as gain realized from the sale or other disposition of the common stock, which will be treated as described under “Non-U.S. Holders—Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of common stock” below.

The withholding tax does not apply to dividends paid to a Non-U.S. holder who provides a Form W-8ECI, certifying that the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States. Instead, the effectively connected dividends will be subject to regular U.S. income tax as if the Non-U.S. holder were a U.S. resident, subject to an applicable income tax treaty providing otherwise. A Non-U.S. corporation receiving effectively connected dividends may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” imposed at a rate of 30% (or a lower treaty rate).

Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of common stock. A Non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax in respect of gain recognized on a sale, taxable exchange or other taxable disposition of our common stock, unless:

	·	the gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the Non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, under certain income tax treaties, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the Non-U.S. holder); or
	·	we are or have been a “U.S. real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the period that the Non-U.S. holder held our common stock, and, in the case where shares of our common stock are regularly traded on an established securities market, the Non-U.S. holder has owned, directly or constructively, more than 5% of our common stock at any time within the shorter of the five-year period preceding the disposition or such Non-U.S. holder’s holding period for the shares of our common stock. There can be no assurance that our common stock will be treated as regularly traded on an established securities market for this purpose.

Unless an applicable treaty provides otherwise, gain described in the first bullet point above will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates as if the Non-U.S. holder were a U.S. resident. Any gains described in the first bullet point above of a Non-U.S. holder that is a foreign corporation may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate (or lower treaty rate).

If the second bullet point above applies to a Non-U.S. holder, gain recognized by such holder on the sale, exchange or other disposition of shares of our common stock will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates, and a buyer of such shares may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 15% of the amount realized upon the disposition. We expect not to be classified as a “U.S. real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, such determination is factual in nature and subject to change and no assurance can be provided as to whether we will be a “U.S. real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the future.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Information returns will be filed with the IRS in connection with payments of dividends and the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our shares of common stock. A Non-U.S. holder may have to comply with certification procedures to establish that it is not a United States person in order to avoid information reporting and backup withholding requirements. The certification procedures required to claim a reduced rate of withholding under a treaty will generally satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid the backup withholding as well. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a Non-U.S. holder will be allowed as a credit against such holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

FATCA Withholding Taxes. Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance promulgated thereunder (commonly referred as the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act” or “FATCA”) generally impose withholding at a rate of 30% in certain circumstances on dividends in respect of, and (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, securities (including shares of our common stock) which are held by or through certain foreign financial institutions (including investment funds), unless any such institution (i) enters into, and complies with, an agreement with the IRS to report, on an annual basis, information with respect to interests in, and accounts maintained by, the institution that are owned by certain U.S. persons and by certain non-U.S. entities that are wholly or partially owned by U.S. persons and to withhold on certain payments, or (ii) if required under an intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country, reports such information to its local tax authority, which will exchange such information with the U.S. authorities. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. Accordingly, the entity through which shares of our common stock are held will affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. Similarly, dividends in respect of, and (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, our common stock held by an investor that is a non-financial non-U.S. entity that does not qualify under certain exceptions will generally be subject to withholding at a rate of 30%, unless such entity either (i) certifies to the applicable withholding agent that such entity does not have any “substantial United States owners” or (ii) provides certain information regarding the entity’s “substantial United States owners,” which will in turn be provided to the U.S. Department of Treasury.

Under the applicable Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance, withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends in respect of our common stock. While withholding under FATCA generally would also apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of securities (including shares of our common stock), proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued. All holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA on their investment in shares of our common stock.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Company Offering

Pursuant to a placement agency agreement, dated as of June [__], 2026, we have engaged Maxim Group LLC or the placement agent, to act as our exclusive placement agent to solicit offers to purchase the securities offered in the Offering pursuant to this prospectus on a reasonable best-efforts basis. The placement agency agreement does not give rise to any commitment by the placement agent to purchase any of our securities, and the placement agent will have no authority to bind us by virtue of the placement agency agreement. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities offered by us under this prospectus, nor is it required to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities. The placement agent does not guarantee that it will be able to raise new capital in any prospective offering. This offering will terminate on [__], unless we decide to terminate the offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. We will have one closing for all the securities purchased in this offering. The combined public offering price per share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) and accompanying warrant, in the Offering, will be fixed for the duration of this offering.

We will enter into a securities purchase agreement directly with certain institutional investors, at such investor’s option, which purchase our securities in this offering. Investors that do not enter into a securities purchase agreement shall rely solely on this prospectus in connection with the purchase of our securities in this Offering. There is no minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds that is a condition to closing of this Offering.

Fees and Expenses

The following table shows the per share and accompanying warrant and per pre-funded warrant and accompanying warrant and total placement agent fees we will pay in connection with the sale of the securities in this Offering.

		Per Share and Accompanying Warrant				Per Pre-Funded Warrant and Accompanying Warrant				Total
Placement Agent Fees		$	0.055			$	0.055			$	260,000

We have agreed to pay the placement agent a cash fee equal to 6.5% of the gross proceeds raised at the closing of this Offering. We also agreed to issue warrants to the placement agent for the purchase of a number of shares of common stock equal to 4% of the total number of shares of common stock issued in this Offering. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse the placement agent for its legal fees and expenses and other out-of-pocket expenses in an amount up to $100,000. We estimate the total offering expenses of this Offering that will be payable by us, excluding the placement agent fees and expenses, will be approximately $450,000.

Placement Agent Warrants

In addition, we have agreed to issue to the placement agent or its designees warrants to purchase up to 188,235 shares of common stock (which represents 4% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued in this offering) with an exercise price of $0.85 per share (representing 100% of the combined public offering price per share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) and accompanying warrant in this Offering). The placement agent warrants will expire five (5) years after the date of shareholder approval. The placement agent warrants may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the securities for a period of 180 days beginning on the date of commencement of sales of the Offering, except that they may be assigned, in whole or in part, to any successor, officer, manager or member of Maxim (or to officers, managers or members of any successor or member), in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(e). The form of the placement agent warrants has been included as an exhibit to this Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part.

Lock-up Agreements

We and each of our officers and directors have agreed with the placement agent to be subject to a lock-up period of 90 days following the date of closing of the offering pursuant to this prospectus. This means that, during the applicable lock-up period, we and such persons may not offer for sale, contract to sell, sell, distribute, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of our shares of common stock or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of common stock, subject to customary exceptions. The placement agent may waive the terms of these lock-up agreements in its sole discretion and without notice. In addition, we have agreed to not issue any securities that are subject to a price reset based on the trading prices of our common stock or upon a specified or contingent event in the future or enter into any agreement to issue securities at a future determined price for a period of one year following the closing date of this offering. The placement agent may waive this prohibition in its sole discretion and without notice.

Regulation M

The placement agent may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by it and any profit realized on the resale of the securities sold by it while acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. As an underwriter, the placement agent would be required to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our securities by the placement agent acting as principal. Under these rules and regulations, the placement agent (i) may not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our securities and (ii) may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities, other than as permitted under the Exchange Act, until it has completed its participation in the distribution.

Indemnification

We have agreed to indemnify the placement agent against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments that the placement agent may be required to make for these liabilities.

Determination of Offering Price and Warrant Exercise Price

The actual offering price of the securities we are offering has been negotiated between us and the investors in the Offering based on the trading of our shares of common stock prior to the Offering, among other things. Other factors considered in determining the public offering price of the securities we are offering include our history and prospects, the stage of development of our business, our business plans for the future and the extent to which they have been implemented, an assessment of our management, the general conditions of the securities markets at the time of the Offering and such other factors as were deemed relevant.

Electronic Offer, Sale and Distribution of Securities

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by the placement agent, if any, participating in this Offering and the placement agent may distribute prospectuses electronically. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on these websites is not part of this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved or endorsed by us or the placement agent, and should not be relied upon by investors.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

We are incorporated in Nevada. Section 78.7502(1) of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS, provides that a corporation may indemnify, pursuant to that statutory provision, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or other enterprise or as a manager of a limited liability company, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138 or if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. NRS 78.138(7) provides that, subject to limited statutory exceptions and unless the articles of incorporation or an amendment thereto (in each case filed on or after October 1, 2003) provide for greater individual liability, a director or officer is not individually liable to the corporation or its stockholders or creditors for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless the presumption established by NRS 78.138(3) has been rebutted and it is proven that (i) his or her act or failure to act constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer, and (ii) such breach involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law.

NRS 78.7502(2) permits a corporation to indemnify, pursuant to that statutory provision, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth above against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted under similar standards, except that no indemnification pursuant to NRS 78.7502 may be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after any appeals taken therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper. NRS 78.751(1) provides that a corporation shall indemnify any person who is a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with defending an action (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees), to the extent that the person is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including, without limitation, an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or as a manager of a limited liability company, or any claim, issue or matter in such action.

II-1

NRS 78.751 provides that the indemnification pursuant to NRS 78.7502 shall not be deemed exclusive or exclude any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled (except that indemnification may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer finally adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of any appeals taken therefrom, to be liable for intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law and such intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law was material to the cause of action) and that the indemnification shall continue as to directors, officers, employees or agents who have ceased to hold such positions, and to their heirs, executors and administrators. NRS 78.752 permits a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against any liability asserted against him or her or incurred by him or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liabilities.

Bylaws

Our bylaws include express provisions providing for the indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under the NRS, and the mandatory payment by us of expenses incurred by such persons in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by us. Our bylaws also permit us to purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any such person for certain liability and expenses, whether or not we have the authority to indemnify such person against such liability and expenses.

Liability Insurance

We maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering our directors and officers against expenses and liabilities arising from certain actions to which they may become subject by reason of having served in such role, including insurance for claims against these persons brought under securities laws. Such insurance is subject to the coverage amounts, exceptions, deductibles and other conditions set forth in the policy as in effect at the time of a claim, if any. There is no assurance that we will maintain liability insurance for our directors and officers.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

Other than described below, within the past three years, the Registrant did not sell any unregistered securities.

On December 8, 2025, the Company completed a private placement pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement entered into with an institutional investor. In the private placement, the Company issued (i) 595,897 pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock and (ii) warrants to purchase 1,042,820 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.03 per share. The Company also issued warrants to purchase 23,836 shares of common stock to the placement agent in connection with the transaction. In connection with the private placement, the Company entered into a warrant inducement agreement with the same investor pursuant to which the investor exercised existing warrants to purchase 210,555 shares of common stock at a reduced exercise price of $4.03 per share and received new warrants to purchase 368,471 shares of common stock. The securities issued in the private placement and warrant inducement transaction were offered and sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

On March 31, 2026, on April 17, 2026, the Board of Directors approved annual restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards to each of the Company’s four non-employee directors pursuant to the Company’s Director Compensation Policy and the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. The awards had an aggregate grant date value of approximately $200,000 and covered an aggregate of 87,260 shares of common stock. The awards vest in four equal quarterly installments through March 31, 2027, subject to continued service on the applicable vesting dates. The RSUs and the shares issuable upon settlement thereof were granted in reliance upon exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 17. Undertakings

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser: each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
