### Overview

The Company was originally formed in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia on October 15, 2007 as Propanc PTY LTD. On November 23, 2010, Propanc Health Group Corporation was incorporated in the State of Delaware and in January 2011, to reorganize our Company, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Propanc PTY LTD on a one-for-one basis, whereby Propanc PTY LTD became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Effective April 20, 2017, we changed our name to “Propanc Biopharma, Inc.” to better reflect our current stage of operations and development.

We are a development-stage healthcare company that is currently focused on developing new cancer treatments for patients suffering from pancreatic, ovarian and colorectal cancer. Utilizing our scientific and oncology consultants, we have developed a rational, composite formulation of anti-cancer compounds, which together exert a number of effects designed to control or prevent tumors from recurring and spreading through the body. Our lead product candidate, PRP, is a variation upon our novel formulation and involves pro-enzymes, the inactive precursors of enzymes.

### Recent Developments

On May 1, 2023, the Company filed a certificate of amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to its certificate of incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), to effect a one-for-one thousand reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), effective as of May 1, 2023. In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the Company submitted an issuer company-related action notification form to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) notifying FINRA of the Reverse Stock Split. The processing of the effects of the Reverse Stock Split by FINRA on the reported price of the Common Stock on the Pink® Open Market operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. will occur at the time that the Reverse Stock Split is announced by FINRA on its over-the-counter daily list, which has not occurred as of the date of this Quarterly Report.

### Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. The results discussed below are of the Company and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiary, Propanc PTY LTD.

**For the Three and Nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the Three and Nine months ended March 31, 2022.**

### Revenue

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we generated no revenue because we are currently undertaking research and development activities for market approval and no sales were generated in this period.

### Administration Expense

Administration expense decreased to $311,824 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $443,629 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease of approximately $132,000 is primarily attributable to a decrease of approximately $90,000 in stock-based expenses, a decrease in accounting fees of approximately $11,000, a decrease in general consulting, legal and investor relation fees of approximately $56,000, offset by increases in employee remuneration expense of approximately $22,000, and general consulting, legal and investor relation fees of approximately $3,000.

Administration expense increased to $1,302,576 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $1,221,533 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. This increase of approximately $81,000 is primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $95,000 in general consulting, legal and investor relation fees, an increase in other general and administrative expenses of approximately $7,000, an increase of approximately $185,000 in employee remuneration expense, an increase in marketing expenses of $7,000, offset by decrease in stock-based expenses of approximately $211,000 and a decrease in accounting fees of approximately $2,000.

### Occupancy Expense

Occupancy expenses increased to $8,365 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $8,157 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase of $208 is primarily attributable to exchange rate movements over the period when compared to the same period in 2022.

Occupancy expenses decreased to $22,244 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $22,443 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease of $199 is primarily attributable to exchange rate movements over the period when compared to the same period in 2022.

### Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses increased to $66,020 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $50,395 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Research and development expenses increased to $242,223 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $147,702 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in research and development expenses is primarily attributable to the two-year collaboration agreement with University of Jaén, which was executed in October 2020 to provide certain research services to the Company. Additionally, on July 27, 2022, the Company entered into another two-year research agreement with the University of Jaén to provide certain research and experiment services to the Company.

### Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased to $157,208 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $167,375 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Interest expense primarily comprised approximately $142,000 of debt discount amortization and accretion of put premium and interest expense from accrual of interest expense and other financing fees for a total of approximately $15,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This decrease in interest expense of $10,167 is primarily attributable to the decrease of approximately $50,000 in accretion of put premium offset by increase in amortization of debt discount of approximately $40,000.

Interest expense decreased to $418,579 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $455,133 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. Interest expense primarily comprised approximately $371,000 of debt discount amortization and accretion of put premium and interest expense from accrual of interest expense and other financing fees for a total of approximately $47,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023. This decrease in interest expense of $36,554 is primarily attributable to the decrease of approximately $149,000 in accretion of put premium offset by increase in amortization of debt discount of approximately $113,000.

### Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities

Change in fair value of derivative liabilities were decreased to a loss of $(238,367) for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a gain of $165,365, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Change in fair value of derivative liabilities were increased to a loss of $(110,859) for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a loss of $(2,392) for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. This increase in loss during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 of approximately $404,000 and $108,000, respectively, is primarily attributable to an increase in fair value of the principal amount of convertible notes with bifurcated embedded conversion option derivatives as a result of the decrease in the conversion prices of such notes during the nine months ended March 31, 2023.

### Gain from Settlement of Accounts Payable

Gain from settlement of accounts payable was $17,499 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $0 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. On August 16, 2022, the Company and a third-party investor relations consultant agreed to settle an outstanding payable of $23,050 in exchange for 2,305,000 warrants to purchase Common Stock at $0.01 per share with an expiry date of August 16, 2025 and fair market value of $5,551. Accordingly, the Company recognized gain from settlement of accounts payable of $17,499 during the nine months ended March 31, 2023.

### Gain on Extinguishment of Debt, net

During the nine months ended March 31, 2023, the principal aggregate amount of convertible notes of $122,000 and accrued interest of $12,488 which contained bifurcated embedded conversion option derivatives were converted into common stock. Accordingly, the fair market value of the shares issued upon conversion was $369,110, resulting in a loss on extinguishment at the time of conversion of $234,622 and $223,288 of derivative fair value was recorded as a gain on extinguishment at the time of conversion, resulting in a net loss of $11,334.

Additionally, during the nine months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized the remaining put premium of $43,520 related to a convertible note into gain on extinguishment of debt. The holder of such convertible note agreed to surrender all conversion rights in its currently held convertible notes due to violation of Section 15(a)(1) of the Exchange Act, which resulted in a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $32,186 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023.

### Foreign Currency Transaction Gain (Loss)

Foreign currency transaction decreased to a loss of $19,025 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a gain of $41,717 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Foreign currency transaction decreased to a gain of $3,210 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a gain of $40,631 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease of approximately $60,000 and $37,000 for such three and nine month periods, respectively, is partially attributable to the decrease in exchange rates during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023.

### Net loss

Net loss increased to $809,809 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a net loss of $462,687 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Net loss increased to $1,912,522 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a net loss of $1,753,322 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. The change relates to the factors discussed above.

### Deemed dividend

The Company recognized the value of the effect of a down round feature related to our Series A warrants when triggered. Upon the occurrence of the triggering event that resulted in a reduction of the strike price, the Company measured the value of the effect of the feature as the difference between the fair value of the warrants without the down round feature or before the strike price reduction and the fair value of the warrants with a strike price corresponding to the reduced strike price upon the down round feature being triggered. Accordingly, the Company recognized deemed dividends of $0 and $237,389 during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and a corresponding reduction of income available to common stockholders upon the alternate cashless exercise of these warrants during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company recognized deemed dividend of $408,557 and $445,631 during the nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and a corresponding reduction of income available to common stockholders upon the alternate cashless exercise of these warrants during the nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

### Net loss available to common stockholders

Net loss available to common stockholders increased to $809,809 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a net loss available to common stockholders of $700,076 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Net loss available to common stockholders increased to $2,321,079 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a net loss available to common stockholders of $2,198,953 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

The increase during the three and nine months periods are primarily attributable to the change relates to the factors discussed above.

### Liquidity and Capital Resources

#### Current Financial Condition

As of March 31, 2023, we had total assets of $143,742, comprised primarily of cash of $93,241, GST tax receivable of $3,334, security deposits of $2,009, operating lease ROU asset, net of $44,524, and property and equipment, net of $634. As compared to June 30, 2022, we had total assets of $81,651, comprised primarily of cash of $4,067, GST tax receivable of $2,342, prepaid expenses and other current assets of $8,621, property and equipment, net, of $2,023, operating lease ROU asset, net of $62,523, and security deposit of $2,075.

We had current liabilities of $3,060,217, primarily comprising net convertible debt of $519,718, loan payable of $65,280, accrued interest of $56,661, accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,605,649, employee benefit liability of $579,888, and embedded conversion option liabilities of $132,501 as of March 31, 2023. As compared to June 30, 2022, we had current liabilities of $3,062,981, primarily comprising net convertible debt of $926,438, accrued interest of $57,822, accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,409,138, employee benefit liability of $415,799, and embedded conversion option liabilities of $151,262.

We have funded our operations primarily through the issuance of equity and/or convertible debt securities for cash. The cash was used primarily for payments for research and development, administration expenses, occupancy expenses, professional fees, consultants and travel.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2023, we received proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $375,000, proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes and notes payable of $590,250, proceeds from the sale of shares of our Common Stock of $24,711 and proceeds from the collection of subscription receivables of $23,758.

We have substantial capital resource requirements and have incurred significant losses since inception. As of March 31, 2023, we had $93,241 in cash. We depend upon debt and/or equity financing to fund our ongoing operations and to execute our current business plan. Such capital requirements are in excess of what we have in available cash and for which we currently have commitments. Therefore, we presently do not have enough available cash to meet our obligations over the next 12 months. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms, we may curtail our plan of operations. We will be required to obtain alternative or additional financing from financial institutions, investors or otherwise, in order to maintain and expand our existing operations. The failure by us to obtain such financing would have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations, and adversely affecting our ability to complete ongoing activities in connection with our research and development programs.

#### Sources and Uses of Cash

|  | For the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2023 | 2022 |
| --- | ---: | ---: |

| Net cash provided by financing activities | $1,013,719 | $1,116,500 |
| Effect of exchange rate changes on cash | $2,733 | $40,436 |

#### Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $927,278 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, due to our net loss of $1,912,522, offset primarily by non-cash charges of amortization of debt discount of $138,014, stock-based compensation of $59,219, accretion of put premium of $232,674, change in fair value of derivatives of $110,859, gain on extinguishment of debt of $32,186 and gain from settlement of accounts payable of $17,499. Net changes in operating assets and liabilities totaled $479,999, which are primarily attributable to a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets $8,348, an increase in employee benefit liabilities of $177,198, an increase in accrued interest of $46,347, an increase in accrued expenses and other payables of $236,034, and an increase in accounts payable of $27,953.

Net cash used in operating activities was $1,025,306 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, due to our net loss of $1,753,322, offset primarily by non-cash charges of amortization of debt discount of $24,942, stock-based compensation of $62,154, accretion of put premium of $380,962, change in fair value of derivatives of $2,392 and issuance and amortization of common stock for services of $222,452. Net changes in operating assets and liabilities totaled $71,992, which is primarily attributable to an increase in employee benefit liability of $23,816, an increase accrued interest of $45,495, and an increase in accrued expenses and other payables of $43,285, offset by a decrease in accounts payable of $34,319.

#### Net Cash Flow from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 was $1,013,719, as compared to $1,116,500 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. During the nine months ended March 31, 2023, we received proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $375,000, proceeds from the sale of shares of our Common Stock of $24,711, collections of subscription receivables of $23,758, and net proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes and a note payable of $590,250.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $1,116,500. During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, we received proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $475,000 and net proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes of $641,500.

#### Effect of Exchange Rate

The effect of the exchange rate on cash resulted in a $2,733 positive adjustment to our cash flows in the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to a $40,436 positive adjustment to our cash flows in the nine months ended March 31, 2022. The reason for the fluctuation is due to the application of currency translation rates throughout our cash flow statement, the volume of transactions within each period and the daily fluctuation in exchange rates.

### Critical Accounting Estimates

Below is a discussion of our more subjective accounting estimation processes for purposes of explaining (i) the methodology used in calculating the estimates, (ii) the inherent uncertainties pertaining to such estimates, and (iii) the possible effects of a significant variance in actual experience, from that of the estimate, on our financial condition. Estimates involve numerous assumptions that, if incorrect, could create a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

Reference is frequently made herein to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). This is the source of authoritative US GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied to non-governmental entities. Each ASC reference in this filing is presented with a three-digit number, which represents its Topic. As necessary for explanation and as applicable, an ASC topic may be followed with a two-digit subtopic, a two-digit section or a two-or-three-digit paragraph.

*Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)*: The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary’s functional currency is the AUD. For financial reporting purposes, the Australian Dollar (“AUD”) has been translated into USD as the Company’s reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Equity transactions are translated at each historical transaction date spot rate. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders’ equity (deficit) as “accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).” Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss as other income (expense). Effective fiscal year 2021, the Company determined that intercompany loans will not be repaid in the foreseeable future and thus, per ASC 830-20-35-3, gains and losses from measuring the intercompany balances are recorded within cumulative translation adjustment, a component of other comprehensive income.

*Accounting for Income Taxes:* We are governed by Australian income tax laws and United States income tax laws, which are administered by the Australian Taxation Office and the United States Internal Revenue Service, respectively. We follow ASC 740, “*Accounting for Income Taxes,”* which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for temporary differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

The Company adopted provisions of ASC 740, Sections 25 through 60, “*Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.”* These sections provide detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions must meet a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of ASC 740 and in subsequent periods.

*Accounting for Stock Based Compensation*: We record stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “*Stock Compensation”* and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 issued by the SEC in March 2005 regarding its interpretation of ASC 718. ASC 718 requires the fair value of all stock-based employee compensation awarded to employees to be recorded as an expense over the related requisite service period. The statement also requires the recognition of compensation expense for the fair value of any unvested stock option awards outstanding at the date of adoption. We value any employee or non-employee stock-based compensation at fair value using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

We account for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with the measurement and recognition criteria of ASC 718.

*Derivative Instruments:* ASC 815, “*Derivatives and Hedging,”* establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities by requiring that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings. On the date of conversion, or payoff, of debt, we record the fair value of the conversion shares, remove the fair value of the related derivative liability, remove any discounts and record a net gain or loss on debt extinguishment.

*Convertible Notes with Variable Conversion Options*: We have entered into convertible notes, some of which contain variable conversion options, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted, by the holder, into shares of Common Stock at or around a fixed discount to the price of the Common Stock at the time of conversion. We treat these convertible notes as stock settled debt under ASC 480 and measure the fair value of the notes at the time of issuance, which is the result of the share price discount at the time of conversion, and record the put premium as accretion to interest expense.

*Research and Development Tax Credits*: We may apply for research and development tax concessions with the Australian Taxation Office on an annual basis. Although the amount is possible to estimate at year end, the Australian Taxation Office may reject or materially alter the claim amount. Accordingly, we do not recognize the benefit of the claim amount until cash receipt since collectability is not certain until such time. The tax concession is a refundable credit. If we have net income then we can receive the credit which reduces its income tax liability. If we have net losses, then we may still receive a cash payment for the credit, however, our net operating loss carry forwards are reduced by the gross equivalent loss that would produce the credit amount when the income tax rate is applied to that gross amount. The concession is recognized as an income tax benefit, in operations, upon receipt.

We did not generate any revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and have incurred significant losses and cash used in operations, and such losses and use of cash are expected to continue. Our independent registered public accounting firm has included a “Going Concern Qualification” in its audit report for each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. In addition, we have negative working capital and convertible debt that is past maturity that we are currently negotiating with lenders in order to amend the maturity dates. The foregoing raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months from the issue date of this report. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to execute our strategy and on our ability to raise additional funds and/or to consummate a public offering. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity and/or convertible debt financing. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The “Going Concern Qualification” might make it substantially more difficult to raise capital.

### Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

## Market risk

As filed, 759 characters.

As of March 31, 2023, we were in default under a certain loan payable issued to certain lender on October 3, 2019 for failure to pay an aggregate of $65,280 and $38,281 of principal and accrued interest, respectively, as of March 31, 2023, subsequent to their maturity date. Additionally, we were in default under a certain convertible note with principal amount of $120,000 which was issued to a lender on November 3, 2022 for failure to pay the first installment payment due in March 2023 which is considered an event of default. We are currently in discussions with such noteholder to extend such maturity date. See “Note 5 – Loans” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 7,057 characters.

#### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we conducted an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, the disclosure controls and procedures of our Company were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports was recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis due to the material weaknesses in financial reporting as discussed below.

#### Material Weaknesses and Corrective Actions

The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, (“COSO”). In connection with the audits of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we identified certain deficiencies relating to our internal control over financial reporting that constitute a material weakness under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”). A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, within the meaning of PCAOB Audit Standard No. 5, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting continued to exist at March 31, 2023:

- we do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”);
- we do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our limited size and early-stage nature of operations, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible; however, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals;
- we lack an audit committee of our board of directors; and
- we have insufficient monitoring and review controls over the financial reporting closing process, including the lack of individuals with current knowledge of US GAAP.

We outsource certain of the functions that would normally be performed by a principal financial officer to assist us in implementing the necessary financial controls over the financial reporting and the utilization of internal management and staff to effectuate these controls.

We believe that these material weaknesses primarily relate, in part, to our lack of sufficient staff with appropriate training in US GAAP and SEC rules and regulations with respect to financial reporting functions, and the lack of robust accounting systems, as well as the lack of sufficient resources to hire such staff and implement these accounting systems.

Subject to raising sufficient additional capital, we plan to take a number of actions in the future to correct these material weaknesses including, but not limited to, establishing an audit committee of our board of directors comprising at least two independent directors, adding experienced accounting and financial personnel and retaining third-party consultants to review our internal controls and recommend improvements. We will need to take additional measures to fully mitigate these issues, and the measures we have taken, and expect to take, to improve our internal controls may not be sufficient to (1) address the issues identified, (2) ensure that our internal controls are effective or (3) ensure that the identified material weakness or other material weaknesses will not result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements. In addition, other material weaknesses may be identified in the future. If we are unable to correct deficiencies in internal controls in a timely manner, our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information accurately and within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC will be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our common stock, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties, and generally materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.

#### Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

#### Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
