Notes to Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Organization

Oragenics, Inc. (formerly known as Oragen, Inc.) (the “Company” or “we”) was incorporated in November, 1996; however, operating activity did not commence until 1999. We are focused on becoming a leader in developing novel antibiotics against infectious disease and on developing effective treatments for oral mucositis.

2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (audited) and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim period ending June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018 or any future period.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 16, 2018. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. To date, the Company has not generated significant revenues from operations. The Company sold its consumer probiotics business in 2016 and, as a result, has generated $-0- revenues. The Company incurred a net loss of $4,400,686, and used cash of $3,647,459 in its operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $105,860,153.

The Company expects to incur substantial expenditures to further develop each of its technologies. The Company believes the working capital at June 30, 2018, together with its recently completed underwritten public offering (See Note 10) of its equity securities, will be sufficient to meet the business objectives as presently structured through June of 2019. As such, there is substantial doubt that we can continue as a going concern beyond that date.

The Company’s ability to continue operations after its current cash resources are exhausted depends on its ability to obtain additional financing or achieve profitable operations, as to which no assurances can be given. Cash requirements may vary materially from those now planned because of changes in the Company’s focus and direction of its research and development programs, competitive and technical advances, or other developments. Additional financing will be required to continue operations after the Company exhausts its current cash resources and to continue its long-term plans for clinical trials and new product development. There can be no assurance that any such financing can be realized by the Company, or if realized, what the terms thereof may be, or that any amount that the Company is able to raise will be adequate to support the Company’s working capital requirements until it achieves profitable operations.

The Company intends to seek additional funding through sublicensing arrangements, joint venturing or partnering, sales of rights to technology, government grants and public or private financings. The Company’s future success depends on its ability to raise capital and ultimately generate revenue and attain profitability. The Company cannot be certain that additional capital, whether through selling additional debt or equity securities or obtaining a line of credit or other loan, will be available to it or, if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company issues additional securities to raise funds, these securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of its common stock, and the Company’s current shareholders may experience dilution. If the Company is unable to obtain funds when needed or on acceptable terms, the Company may be required to curtail its current development programs, cut operating costs and forego future development and other opportunities.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-07 Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this Update expand the scope of Topic 718 to include sharebased payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The requirements of Topic 718 should be applied to nonemployee awards except for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost (that is, the period of time over which share-based payment awards vest and the pattern of cost recognition over that period). The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments also clarify that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operation, financial position or disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Previous lease accounting was criticized for failing to meet the needs of users of financial statements because it did not always provide a faithful representation of leasing transactions. In particular, it did not require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities arising from operating leases on the balance sheet. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operation, financial position or disclosures.

There are no additional accounting pronouncements issued or effective during the three or six months ended June 30, 2018 that have had, or are expected to have, an impact on our financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The principal areas of estimation reflected in the financial statements are anticipated milestone payments, stock based compensation, valuation of warrants, and income tax valuation allowance. Inventory obsolescence reserve, sales returns and allowances and the allowance for doubtful accounts were the principal areas of estimation that had been reflected in the financial statements related to discontinued operations.

Stock-Based Payment Arrangements

Generally, all forms of stock-based payments, including stock option grants, warrants, and restricted stock grants are measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date typically using a Black-Scholes pricing model. Stock-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at the fair value of the stock-based payment. The expense resulting from stock-based payments are recorded in research and development expense or general and administrative expense in the statement of operations, depending on the nature of the services provided. Stock-based payment expense is recorded over the requisite service period in which the grantee provides services to us. To the extent the stock option grants, warrants, or restricted stock grants do not vest at the grant date they are subject to forfeiture.

Stock-Based Compensation

US GAAP requires all stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values as of the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded over the requisite service period in which the grantee provides services to us, to the extent the options do not vest at the grant date and are subject to forfeiture. For performance-based awards that do not include market-based conditions, we record share-based compensation expense only when the performance-based milestone is deemed probable of achievement. We utilize both quantitative and qualitative criteria to judge whether milestones are probable of achievement. For awards with market-based performance conditions, we recognize the grant-date fair value of the award over the derived service period regardless of whether the underlying performance condition is met.

Warrants

The Company used the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model in calculating the relative fair value of any warrants that have been issued.

Net Loss Per Share

During all periods presented, the Company had securities outstanding that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future but were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as their effect would have been antidilutive because the Company reported a net loss for all periods presented. Basic and diluted net loss per share amounts are the same for the periods presented. Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

Revenue Recognition

During the quarter ended June 30, 2016, the Company sold its consumer probiotic business, from which it had historically generated revenues. As a result of this sale, the Company is no longer generating revenues.

Concentrations

In June of 2016, the Company sold its consumer probiotics business, as such the Company is no longer dependent on key suppliers to continue to operate the consumer probiotics business.

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash accounts in commercial banks, which may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2018, the uninsured portion of this balance was $3,690,530. As of December 31, 2017, the uninsured portion of this balance was $5,916,143.

4. Stock-based Compensation

The Company recognized stock-based compensation on all employee and non-employee awards as follows:

At our Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 22, 2018, our shareholders approved an amendment to our 2012 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the shares available for awards thereunder by 1,500,000 shares.

The Company granted 128,000 and 128,000 stock options, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $1.52 and $1.52 per share, during three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The Company granted 105,600 and 105,600 stock options, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $3.60 and $3.60 per share, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, 116,199 stock options previously granted have vested and no stock options were forfeited and no stock options were exercised.

On June 22, 2018, in connection with, and in furtherance of, the non-employee director compensation program, the Board approved stock option awards in the amount of 14,000 to each of the Company’s non-employee directors, Frederick Telling, Charles Pope, Alan Dunton, and Robert Koski under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan at an exercise price of $1.52 per share, the closing price on June 22, 2018, the date of the grant.

Also, on June 22, 2018, and in connection with, and in furtherance of, the non-employee director compensation program, the Board approved the award of 4,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to each of the Company’s non-employee directors, Frederick Telling, Charles Pope, Alan Dunton, and Robert Koski under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the award, the restricted shares were immediately vested.

In addition, on June 22, 2018, in connection with, and in furtherance of, the equity based award program, the Board approved stock option awards in the amount of 62,000 to management and 10,000 to staff under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan at an exercise price of $1.52 per share, the closing price on June 22, 2018, the date of the grant.

On June 22, 2017, in connection with, and in furtherance of, the non-employee director compensation program, the Board approved stock option awards in the amount of 14,000 to each of the Company’s non-employee directors, Frederick Telling, Charles Pope, Alan Dunton, and Robert Koski under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan at an exercise price of $3.70 per share, the closing price on June 22, 2017, the date of the grant.

In addition, on June 22, 2017, in connection with, and in furtherance of, the new equity based award program, the Board approved stock option awards in the amount of 45,500 to management and 4,100 to staff under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan at an exercise price of $3.70 per share, the closing price on June 22, 2017, the date of the grant.

Table of Contents

On February 9, 2017, in connection with, and in furtherance of, the non-employee director compensation program, the Board approved the award of 4,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to each of the Company’s non-employee directors, Frederick Telling, Charles Pope, Alan Dunton, and Robert Koski under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, of which, 1,000 restricted shares vested at the end of each calendar quarter in 2017.

Each executive officer and non-employee director receiving equity based awards is subject to a minimum dollar value stock ownership holding requirement with respect to the awards received as well as all prior equity awards under the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan which requirements are intended to align the ability to sell shares with the performance of the Company’s stock price. The executive officer recipients each have a minimum dollar value stock ownership holding requirement threshold equal to two times (2x) their then base salaries below which dollar threshold they would be precluded from selling any shares of Company stock obtained from the Company under its 2012 Equity Incentive Plan. Also, the non-employee directors are each subject to a minimum dollar value stock ownership holding requirement threshold equal to six times the annual Board retainer ($270,000) below which dollar threshold they would be precluded from selling shares of Company stock acquired from the Company under its 2012 Equity Incentive Plan.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

The University of Florida Research Foundation Licenses (“UFRF”)

UFRF-MU1140 License. In the Company’s UFRF amended license agreement for MU1140, the Company is obligated to pay 5% of the selling price of any products developed from the UFRF licensed technology that the Company may sell as royalty to the UFRF. In addition, if the Company sublicenses any rights granted by the amended license agreement, the Company is obligated to pay to the UFRF 22% of all revenues received from the sublicenses, excluding monies received solely for development costs. The Company is also obligated to make the following payments to UFRF as follows: a one-time commercialization fee, post-commercialization minimum royalty payments, and a one-time cumulative royalty payment. The one-time commercialization fee would be due on the first anniversary of first commercial sale and is calculated at $5,000 per month between (1) April 1, 2013 for the MU1140 license agreement and (2) the month of the first anniversary of a commercial sale. The post-commercialization minimum royalty payments of $50,000 annually would be due following payment of a commercialization fee. The one-time additional royalty payment would be due when total cumulative royalties paid to UFRF exceed $2.0 million, upon which we would be obligated to make a one-time additional payment to UFRF of 10% of the total royalties due to UFRF in the calendar year in which cumulative royalties exceeded $2.0 million.

The Company is required to make minimum annual maintenance payments to the UFRF for the term of the amended license agreement in the amount of $10,000 for the license agreement. The aggregate minimum annual payments are required to be paid in advance on a quarterly basis (i.e. $2,500 per quarter) for the license. The Company must also pay all patent costs and expenses incurred by the UFRF for the preparation, filing, prosecution, issuance and maintenance of the patents.

The terms of the UFRF amended license agreement expire upon the earlier of (i) the date that no patents covered by the amended license agreement remain enforceable or (ii) the payment of earned royalties under the amended license agreement, once begun, ceases for more than three calendar quarters. The Company may voluntarily terminate the license agreement upon 90 days written notice to UFRF. UFRF may terminate the amended license agreement if the Company breaches its obligations to timely pay any amounts due under the amended license agreement, to submit development reports as required under the amended license agreement or commit any other breach of any other covenants contained in the amended license agreement and the Company fails to remedy such breach within 90 days after written notice of such breach by UFRF.

Texas A&M License Agreement

Under the terms of the Texas A&M license agreement, the Company made an initial payment of five thousand dollars ($5,000) to Texas A&M. The Company must also pay to Texas A&M a royalty of five percent (5%) of net sales of products that include the licensed technology, subject to royalty stacking provisions with a two percent (2%) minimum royalty. Additionally, in order to maintain the exclusive license, commencing in 2014 and each year thereafter prior to the calendar year of the first sale of products using the licensed technology, the Company was to pay Texas A&M $15,000 as minimum annual consideration for the continuation of the license agreement. In October of 2016 the Texas A&M license agreement was amended to provide for a payment of $25,000 commencing in 2017 and each year thereafter prior to the calendar year of the first sale of products using

10

Table of Contents

the licensed technology, as minimum annual consideration for the continuation of the license agreement. Once the Company commences the sale of products that include the technology the Company licenses from Texas A&M the Company must pay a minimum annual amount of $100,000 to Texas A&M and every year thereafter through the expiration of the Agreement. However, once sales begin, any royalty payments the Company makes on net sales will be credited against the $100,000 required maintenance payment.

The Company must also pay all patent costs and expenses for the preparation, filing, prosecution, issuance and maintenance of the patent rights. Sales by sublicensees are subject to the royalty rate above, and the Company is responsible for certain payments to Texas A&M for any other consideration received that are not in the form of a royalty.

Pursuant to the amended Texas A&M license agreement, the Company is obligated to meet the following milestones and make milestone payments: (i) enrollment of first patient in a Phase 1 clinical trial using the licensed technology, to occur on or before June 1, 2019, with a milestone achievement payment of $50,000, (ii) completion of Phase 2 clinical trial using the licensed technology to occur on or before June 1, 2022, with a milestone achievement payment of $100,000, (iii) completion of Phase 3 clinical trial of the licensed technology to occur on or before June 1, 2025, with a milestone achievement payment of $150,000, and (iv) first sale of the licensed technology to occur on or before June 1, 2026 with a milestone achievement payment of $400,000. If we fail to accomplish the milestones or fail to achieve net sales of products including the licensed technology for two consecutive calendar years Texas A&M at its sole option may waive the requirement, negotiate the missed milestones or terminate the license agreement. None of the Texas A&M milestones had been achieved as of June 30, 2018.

The Lantibiotic ECC

Under the Lantibiotic ECC, and subject to certain exceptions, the Company is responsible for, among other things, funding the further anticipated development of lantibiotics toward the goal of commercialization, conducting nonclinical and clinical development of candidate lantibiotics, as well as for other aspects of manufacturing and the commercialization of the product(s). Among other things, Intrexon is responsible for technology discovery efforts, cell-engineering development, certain aspects of the manufacturing process, and costs of filing, prosecution and maintenance of Intrexon’s patents.

In November of 2017 the Lantibiotic ECC was amended to: (i) consolidate the development milestone payments into one payment of $25,000,000, being due six months after receiving FDA approval of a New Drug Application, (ii) reduce the sublicense revenue percentage we would have had to pay from 50% to 25% of sublicensing revenue, (iii) reduce the royalty rate from 25% of Product Profit to 10% of Net Sales, (iv) revise the form of milestone payments from being share based or cash at the Company’s election to only cash, and (v) commit that Diligent Efforts (as defined in the Lantibiotic ECC) in pursuing the Lantibiotic Program would be deemed satisfied in 2018 provided that at least $1,200,000 was budgeted for the advancement of the Lantibiotic Program.

In November of 2017, the Stock Issuance Agreement was also amended. Under the terms of the amendment, the Company has agreed to make certain payments, in cash, to Intrexon upon our achievement of designated milestones. The milestone events and amounts payable are as follows:

Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, we will also pay Intrexon on a quarterly basis 10% of Net Sales derived in that quarter from the sale of products developed from the Lantibiotic ECC, calculated on an Oragenics Product-by-Oragenics Product basis and we will pay Intrexon on a quarterly basis 25% of revenue obtained in that quarter from a sublicensor in the event of a sublicensing arrangement.

On July 21, 2016, the Lantibiotics ECC was amended to revise the definition of Field in view of a provisional patent application filing between Intrexon and Oragenics and to further clarify Oragenics’ rights under the Lantibiotic ECC to genetically modified Streptococcus mutans that express Lantibiotic(s).

Table of Contents

None of the Lantibiotic ECC milestones had been achieved as of June 30, 2018.

The Oral Mucositis ECC

Under the Oral Mucositis ECC, and subject to certain exceptions, the Company is responsible for, among other things, funding the further anticipated development of products toward the goal of commercialization, conducting preclinical and clinical development of candidate products, as well as for other aspects of manufacturing and the commercialization of the product(s). Among other things, Intrexon is responsible for technology discovery efforts, cell-engineering development, and certain aspects of the manufacturing process.

In November of 2017 the Company amended the Oral Mucositis ECC to: (i) consolidate the development milestone payments into one payment of $27,500,000 being due within six months after receiving FDA approval of a New Product Application; (ii) reduce the sublicense revenue percentage from 50% to 25% of sublicensing revenue; and (iii) revise the field in which the Company has exclusive rights to its Oral Mucositis product candidate for the treatment of Oral Mucositis to clarify that the Company has an exclusive for the treatment of Oral Mucositis in humans regardless of etiology.

Pursuant to the terms of the Oral Mucositis ECC, as amended, we are obligated to pay Intrexon on a quarterly basis 12% of the net sales derived from the sale of products developed from the exclusive channel collaboration. We are also obligated to pay Intrexon on a quarterly basis, 25% of revenue obtained in that quarter from a sublicensor in the event of a sublicensing arrangement.

In November of 2017, the Stock Issuance Agreement and Oral Mucositis ECC were amended. Under the terms of the amendment, the Company has agreed to make certain payments to Intrexon upon our achievement of designated milestones in the form of shares of our Common Stock (based upon the fair market value of the shares otherwise required to be issued) unless the issuance of such shares would reasonably likely cause Intrexon to consolidate our financial statements with Intrexon’s financial statements, or at our option make a cash payment to Intrexon. The milestone events and amounts payable are as follows:

None of the Oral Mucositis ECC milestones had been achieved as of June 30, 2018.

The Oral Mucositis ECC provides that in the event (i) Oragenics is required to make a milestone payment in cash as an issuance of shares would cause Intrexon to consolidate the Company’s financial statements with Intrexon’s financial statements, and (ii) Oragenics reasonably concludes that a cash milestone payment would have an adverse effect on its working capital needs over the next twelve (12) months, then such cash payment shall be in the form of an interest bearing promissory note with a maturity date of less than twelve (12) months and include other conventional market terms that would not be expected to unreasonably have an adverse effect on Oragenics working capital needs over such twelve (12) month period.

8. Related Party Transactions

ProBiora Health is obligated to pay the Company contingent consideration annually over a 10 year period based on a percentage of sales of products using the Purchased Assets, with a maximum obligation to the Company of $2,000,000. No such payment of contingent consideration was due to the Company from ProBiora Health for the years ending December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

The activities related to the consumer probiotic business are reflected as part of “Discontinued Operations” for the applicable period presented.

9. Shareholders Equity

Common Stock

Increase in the Number of Authorized Shares and Completion of Reverse Stock Split

In January of 2017, we filed an amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation which increased the number of authorized shares of all classes of our capital stock from 120,000,000 shares to 270,000,000 shares by increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 shares of common stock to 250,000,000 shares of common stock. The amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation was previously approved by a majority of our shareholders. In addition, a majority of shareholders approved an amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of our common stock by a ratio of not less than one-for-five and not more than one-for-ten, with the exact number to be set at a whole number within this range to be determined by our board of directors in its sole discretion and to authorize our board of directors to implement the reverse stock split at any time on or prior to December 31, 2017 by filing an amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. No such reverse stock split occurred prior to December 31, 2017.

In December of 2017, we filed another amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation which increased the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 250,000,000 shares to 450,000,000. The amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation was previously approved by a majority of our shareholders. In addition, a majority of shareholders approved an amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of our common stock by a ratio of not less than one-for-five and not more than one-for-ten, with the exact number to be set at a whole number within this range to be determined by our board of directors in its sole discretion and to authorize our board of directors to implement the reverse stock split at any time on or prior to December 31, 2018 by filing an amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation.

On January 8, 2018, the Company announced a reverse split of its common stock, $0.001 par value, at a ratio of one-for-ten, which became effective January 19, 2018. The Company’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on January 22, 2018 under the existing trading symbol “OGEN”.

As a result of the reverse split, each 10 pre-split shares of common stock outstanding were automatically combined into one new share of common stock without any action on the part of the holders, and the number of outstanding common shares was reduced from approximately 49 million shares to approximately 4.9 million shares. The reverse split also applied to common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company’s outstanding stock options. In addition, the Company also announced that the authorized common stock of the Company was decreased from 450 million to 45 million shares. The authorized preferred stock remains at 50,000,000 shares. The common stock issued pursuant to the reverse stock split will remain fully paid and non-assessable. The reverse stock split did not affect the par value of the common stock.

No fractional shares were issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Shareholders who otherwise would be entitled to a fractional share because they hold a number of shares not evenly divisible by the one-for-ten reverse split ratio, were automatically entitled to receive an additional fractional share of the Company’s common stock to round up to the next whole share.

On March 9, 2018, a holder of 2,583,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, converted the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into 258,300 shares of the Company’s common stock.

On April 6, 2018, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a registered offering by the Company directly to the investors, an aggregate of 900,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at an offering price of $2.00 per share. In a concurrent private placement, the Company agreed to issue to the investors who participated in the registered offering, warrants exercisable for one share of common stock for each share purchased in the registered offering for an aggregate of warrants to purchase 900,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. Each warrant is exercisable beginning on the six-month anniversary of the date of its issuance and will expire five years from the date of issuance.

At our Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 22, 2018, our shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation which increased the number of authorized shares of our Common Stock from 45,000,000 shares of Common Stock to 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

Also, on June 22, 2018, and in connection with, and in furtherance of, the non-employee director compensation program, the Board approved the award of 4,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to each of the Company’s non-employee directors, Frederick Telling, Charles Pope, Alan Dunton, and Robert Koski under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the award, the restricted shares were immediately vested.

On February 9, 2017, in connection with and in furtherance of the new equity based award program (See Note 4), the Board approved the award of 4,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to each of the Company’s non-employee directors, Frederick Telling, Charles Pope, Alan Dunton, and Robert Koski under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan of which a total of 1,000 restricted shares vested at the end of each of the four quarters in 2017. The awards are considered issued and outstanding as of the date of the grant and are eligible to be voted by the recipient. At June 30, 2017, the Company had $29,372 in unrecognized compensation expense relating to these awards that was recognized through the remainder of 2017.

Preferred Stock

Series A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock Financing

On May 10, 2017 we entered into a securities purchase agreement with three accredited investors, to purchase up to $3,000,000 of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock Financing”). The sale of the Preferred Stock took place in two separate closings and at the first closing which occurred on May 10, 2017, we received gross proceeds of approximately $1,302,000. The second closing occurred on July 25, 2017 and we received gross proceeds of approximately $1,698,000, which was the balance of the Preferred Stock Financing. The full $3,000,000 of Preferred Stock, and after giving effect to the reverse stock split, is convertible into 1,200,001 shares of our Common Stock, based on a fixed conversion price of $2.50 per share on an as-converted basis. In addition, and after giving effect to the reverse stock split, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 462,106 shares of Common Stock at the first closing and we issued an aggregate of 602,414 shares of Common Stock at the second closing (the “Series A Warrants”). The Series A Warrants have a term of seven years from the date of issuance are non-exercisable until 6 months after issuance, and after giving effect to the reverse stock split, have an exercise price of $3.10 per share. Proceeds from the Series A Preferred Stock Financing (including the exercise of any warrants for cash) will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital.

On July 27, 2017, we entered into an agreement to amend the warrants issued in connection with the Series A Preferred Stock Financing to provide notification and objection requirements with respect to the change of control provisions. The change of control provisions in the warrants had previously caused the warrants to be treated as a derivative liability as opposed to being treated as equity on our balance sheet. The warrants have been replaced by amended and restated warrants containing such notification and objection requirements (the “Amended and Restated Common Stock Purchase Warrants”) so that the Amended and Restated Common Stock Purchase Warrants are now treated as equity on our balance sheet. All other terms of the original warrants remain unchanged by the Amended and Restated Common Stock Purchase Warrants.

In connection with the Series A Preferred Financing, we filed a Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, to be effective May 10, 2017. The number of shares of Preferred Stock designated as Series A Preferred Stock is 12,000,000 and have a par value of $0.001 per share.

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series A Warrants, we granted certain demand registration rights and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of our Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants, pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement.

Except as otherwise required by law, the Series A Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, we shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Certificate of Designation, (b) amend its articles of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, (c) increase the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or (d) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up by us, whether voluntary or involuntary that is not a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, the greater of (i) the product of the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then held by such holder, multiplied by the Original Issue Price; and (ii) the amount that would be payable to such holder in the Liquidation in respect of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock if all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock immediately prior to the Liquidation. The Series A Preferred Stock is classified as permanent equity.

On March 9, 2018, a holder of 2,583,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, converted the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into 258,300 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Series B Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock Financing

On November 8, 2017, we completed a private placement of $3,300,000 of Series B Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement with four existing shareholders who are accredited investors including an entity affiliated with a director of the Company (the “Series B Preferred Stock Financing”).

Table of Contents

The full $3,300,000 of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, after giving effect to the reverse stock split, into 1,320,002 shares of our Common Stock, based on a conversion of one share of Series B Preferred Stock into two shares of Common Stock. The purchase price per share of the Series B Preferred Stock is represented by $2.50 per share of the Common Stock on an as converted basis. In addition, and after giving effect to the reverse stock split, we issued to the investors in the private placement accompanying common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,064,518 shares of Common Stock (the “Series B Warrants”). The Series B Warrants have a term of seven years from the date of issuance and are non-exercisable until six (6) months after issuance, and after giving effect to the reverse stock split, have an exercise price of $3.10 per share.

In connection with the Series B Preferred Financing, we filed a Certificate of Designation and Rights of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, to be effective November 8, 2017. The number of shares of Preferred Stock designated as Series B Preferred Stock is 6,600,000 and have a par value of $0.001 per share.

Except as otherwise required by law, the Series B Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, we shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series B Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Certificate of Designation, (b) amend its articles of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, (c) increase the number of authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or (d) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

The Series B Preferred Stock shall rank (i) on par with the Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock and junior to Series C Preferred Stock as to dividend rights and (ii) junior to Series C Preferred Stock, on par with Series A Preferred Stock and senior to the Common Stock as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up by us, whether voluntary or involuntary.

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up by us, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, after payment to the Series C Preferred Stock but on par with the Series A Preferred Stock and in preference to the holders of the Common Stock, an amount of cash equal to the greater of (i) the product of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then held by such holder, multiplied by the Original Issue Price; and (ii) the amount that would be payable to such holder in the Liquidation in respect of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock if all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock immediately prior to the Liquidation. The Series B Preferred Stock is classified as permanent equity.

Series C Non-Voting, Non- Convertible Preferred Stock Financing Intrexon Debt Conversion

Concurrently with the Series B Preferred Stock Financing, we also entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement (the “Intrexon Debt Conversion Agreement”) with Intrexon Corporation (“Intrexon”) pursuant to which Intrexon exchanged the $2,400,000 unsecured non-convertible promissory note previously issued by us to Intrexon (the “Intrexon Note”), the accrued interest on the Intrexon Note and trade payables owed by us (collectively the “Debt”) in the aggregate amount of approximately $3,400,000 for equity in the form of 100 shares of Series C, Non-Voting, Non-Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) issued by us to Intrexon pursuant to the Debt Conversion Agreement which 100 shares have a stated value equal to the amount of the Debt.

In connection with the Intrexon Debt Conversion Agreement, we filed a Certificate of Designation and Rights of Series C Non-Convertible Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, to be effective November 8, 2017. The number of shares of Preferred Stock designated as Series C Preferred Stock is 1,000 and have a par value of $0.001 per share.

Each issued and outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock entitles the holder of record to receive dividends at the annual rate of twelve percent (12%) (the “Initial Rate”) of its Stated Value, payable by issuing additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock within thirty days after the end of each calendar year pro-rata for partial years. The Initial Rate shall be subject to increase to twenty percent (20%) automatically after May 10, 2019. On January 25, 2018 we paid a dividend on our Series C Preferred Stock to Intrexon of 1.733 shares for the portion of the 2017 fiscal year the Series C Preferred Stock was outstanding.

10. Subsequent Event

On July 17, 2018, the Company announced the closing of an underwritten public offering (the “Public Offering”) of units for gross proceeds of approximately $13.8 million, which includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option to purchase additional shares and warrants, prior to deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company.

15

Table of Contents

The Public Offering was comprised of Class A Units, priced at a public offering price of $1.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and a seven-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share (each, a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”), and Class B Units, priced at a public offering price of $1.00 per unit, with each unit comprised of one share of series D preferred stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), which is convertible into one share of common stock, and a Warrant. The conversion price of the Series D Preferred Stock issued in the transaction as well as the exercise price of the Warrants are fixed and do not contain any variable pricing features or any price based anti-dilutive features. The Series D Preferred Stock issued in this transaction includes a beneficial ownership blocker but has no dividend rights (except to the extent that dividends are also paid on the common stock), liquidation preference or other preferences over common stock, and, with certain exceptions, has no voting rights. The securities comprising the units were immediately separable and have been issued separately.

The Conversion Price of the Series D Preferred Stock and exercise price of the warrants is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of recapitalization events, stock dividends, dilutive issuances, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications, reorganizations or similar events affecting the Company’s common stock.

A total of 4,436,000 shares of common stock, 9,364,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock convertible into 9,364,000 shares of common stock, and total warrants to purchase 13,800,000 shares of common stock were issued in the Public Offering inclusive of the underwriters exercise of their over-allotment option to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock at the Public Offering price per share less the underwriting discounts and commissions.

Prior to the closing of the Public Offering, certain purchasers elected to convert shares of Series D Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock. Following the completion of the Public Offering and the conversion of these shares, the Company had outstanding 8,760,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock.

The net proceeds to the Company from the Public Offering, after deducting Underwriter fees and expenses and the Company’s estimated Public Offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Warrants issued in the Public Offering, was approximately $12.3 million. The Company anticipates using the net proceeds from this Public Offering to continue funding development of AG013, our ongoing Phase II clinical trial for the treatment of Oral Mucositis, our pre-clinical development of our lantibiotics program and for general corporate purposes, including research and development activities, capital expenditures and working capital.

The following table sets forth the Company’s Total Shareholders’ Equity position as of June 30, 2018, as adjusted on a pro forma basis to reflect the recently completed underwritten Public Offering:

Oragenics, Inc.

Pro Forma Shareholder’s Equity

(U.S. dollars)

In connection with the Public Offering, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series D Preferred Stock on July 13, 2018, with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida which became effective upon filing. The Certificate of Designation provides for the issuance of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock. With certain exceptions, the shares of Series D Preferred Stock rank on par with the shares of the Common Stock, in each case, as to dividend rights and distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.

With certain exceptions, as described in the Certificate of Designation, the shares of Series D Preferred Stock have no voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series D Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Certificate of Designation provides that the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Preferred Stock or alter or amend this Certificate of Designation, (b) amend its certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the Holders, (c) increase the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock, or (d) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the holder’s option into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to one share divided by the Conversion Price. The “Conversion Price” is initially $1.00, subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions as specified in the Certificate of Designation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificate of Designation further provides that the Company shall not effect any conversion of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock, with certain exceptions, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion, the holder of shares of Series D Preferred (together with such holder’s affiliates and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of 4.99% of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding (or, upon election by a Holder prior to the issuance of and Warrants, 9.99%). At the holder’s option, upon notice to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease this beneficial ownership limitation not to exceed 9.99% of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding, with any such increase becoming effective upon 61 days’ prior notice to the Company.

Additionally, subject to certain exceptions and limitations, at any time prior to the three year anniversary of the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Company will have the right to cause each holder of the Series D Preferred Stock to convert all or part of such holder’s Series D Preferred Stock in the event that (i) the volume weighted average price of our common stock for each of 30 consecutive trading days exceeds $3.00 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, recapitalizations, stock dividends and similar transactions), (ii) the average daily trading volume for such measurement period exceeds $175,000 per trading day and (iii) the holder is not in possession of any information that constitutes or might constitute, material non-public information which was provided by the Company. The description of the Series D Preferred Stock is qualified by reference to the Certificate of Designation filed with our Form 8-K on July 17, 2018.

Overview

We are focused on becoming a leader in developing novel antibiotics against infectious disease and on developing effective treatments for oral mucositis.

Our Oral Mucositis Product Candidate-Clinical

In June of 2015, we entered into a worldwide Exclusive Channel Collaboration Agreement (“Oral Mucositis ECC”) with Intrexon Corporation (“Intrexon”) and Intrexon Actobiotics NV, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intrexon, pursuant to which we obtained certain exclusive rights to AG013 as a potential treatment of oral mucositis, or OM for cancer patients, which we intend to continue to develop. AG013, is an oral rinsing solution designed to deliver human Trefoil Factor 1 (hTFF1) to protect and regenerate damaged mucosal lining of the oral cavity.

OM results in a painful inflammation and mucosal ulceration in the lining of the oral cavity, throat and esophagus and is one of the most commonly reported adverse events associated with cancer chemotherapy. Approximately 770,000 patients annually in the US are at an increased risk of developing OM according to cancer statistics provided by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in 2017. OM has a negative effect on patient well-being and if severe, negatively affects adherence to a patient’s cancer treatment regimen. At present, we are not aware of any drug that is approved to prevent the condition broadly and current therapies are primarily palliative in nature, only addressing symptom relief but not treating the underlying causes of the condition.

In a Phase 1b clinical trial in 25 cancer patients with OM, AG013 was safe and well tolerated. Data published in the journal Cancer showed a 35% reduction of the duration of ulcerative OM in the AG013-treated patients versus the placebo-treated patients. Furthermore, close to 30% of the patients treated with AG013 were full responders while all placebo-treated patients developed ulcerative OM. Additionally, in a Phase 1 pharmacokinetic (PK) study in 10 healthy volunteers, AG013 bacteria adhered to the buccal mucosa and actively secrete protein locally, resulting in homogeneous exposure of the entire mucosal surface up to 24 hours after administration of the rinse. During the first quarter of 2016, we conducted a confirmatory animal study on AG013. AG013 has been granted Orphan Drug status in the European Union. In November of 2016, the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) granted Fast Track designation for AG013, and we believe it may be eligible for Biologic License Application exclusivity as well.

We have developed a Phase 2 protocol for AG013 with the FDA under the fast track designation. The study is a double blind, placebo controlled, evaluation of daily AG013, administered three times a day, oral rinse for the duration of the cancer treatment. The study is expected to enroll between 160-180 evaluable patients receiving chemoradiation for treatment of head and neck cancer for 7 to 9 weeks. The primary endpoint is a reduction, compared to the placebo, in the number of days of severe oral mucositis. In addition, a number of secondary endpoints are being evaluated. In August of 2016, we received feedback from the FDA in response to our Type C meeting and the pursuit of a Phase 2 trial on AG013 for the treatment of oral mucositis in head and neck cancer patients. We filed an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) update in March 2017 and we initiated the Phase 2 study with AG013 in the United States in 2017 with the expectation that we will expand the trial into Europe in 2018 upon sufficient financing being available to us. The Phase 2 trial is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-arm, multi-center trial in which approximately 200 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either a placebo or AG013. The clinical trial will be conducted at approximately 45 clinical sites across the United States and Europe. The purpose of the Phase 2 study (NCT03234465) is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of topically administered AG013 compared to placebo for reducing the incidence and severity of OM in patients undergoing traditional chemoradiation for the treatment of head and neck cancer. Key efficacy measures include collection of data regarding the duration, time to development, and overall incidence of OM (World Health Organization scale used) during the active treatment phase, beginning from the start of chemoradiation therapy until 2 weeks following its completion.

Table of Contents

We completed enrollment of the interim analysis cohort , which included 24 randomized patients in our Phase 2 clinical trial of AG013 for the treatment OM. Nineteen of those patients were included in the unblinded safety evaluation, of which 10 received AG013. We recently announced positive results from our interim safety analysis, which was requested by the FDA on patients from our Phase 2 clinical trial of AG013 for the treatment of OM. The study provided information that, we believe, likely indicates that the overall incidence of severe OM is less than would be anticipated in the general population.

Safety was evaluated on the basis of treatment-emergent adverse events, vital signs, weight, physical examinations, clinical laboratory assessments and the presence of AG013 in whole blood. Tolerability measures (taste, consistency and smell) were collected from the patient diaries. In addition, the reasons for study treatment discontinuation were also summarized. Following review of the data by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB), it was concluded that the clinical trial can proceed with no changes to the study. The data analysis indicated that the distribution of adverse events were similar between AG013 and placebo. The serious adverse events reported were consistent with those commonly reported in a head and neck cancer population receiving traditional chemoradiation therapy treatments and included fevers, neutropenia, anemia, nausea and vomiting, infections and oral (mouth and throat) pain. There were no reports of bacteremia or sepsis. Of patients that discontinued participation in the clinical study, 4 patients experienced adverse events, including 3 patients who developed nausea and vomiting, 2 patients that were non-compliant with the study procedures and 3 patients developed severe OM.

Given the clearance by the DSMB, we are proceeding with patient enrollment for our AGO13 clinical trial, including the addition of clinical sites in the U.S. and Europe. We expect to report top-line results of the completed phase 2 trial in late 2019.

Our Antibiotic Product Candidate-Preclinical

Members of our scientific team discovered that a certain bacterial strain produces MU1140, a molecule belonging to the novel class of antibiotics known as lantibiotics. Lantibiotics, such as MU1140, are highly modified peptide antibiotics made by a small group of Gram positive bacterial species. Approximately 60 lantibiotics have been discovered, to date. We believe lantibiotics are generally recognized by the scientific community to be potent antibiotic agents.

In nonclinical testing, MU1140 has shown activity against all Gram positive bacteria against which it has been tested, including those responsible for a number of healthcare associated infections, or HAIs. A high percentage of hospital-acquired infections are caused by highly resistant bacteria such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. We believe the need for novel antibiotics is increasing as a result of the growing resistance of target pathogens to existing FDA approved antibiotics on the market.

Lantibiotics have been difficult to investigate for their clinical usefulness as therapeutic agents in the treatment of infectious diseases due to a general inability to produce or synthesize sufficient quantities of pure amounts of these molecules. Traditional fermentation methods can only produce minute amounts of the lantibiotic.

In June 2012, we entered into the Lantibiotic Exclusive Channel Collaboration agreement (“Lantibiotic ECC”) with Intrexon for the development and commercialization of the native strain of MU1140 and related homologs using Intrexon’s advanced transgene and cell engineering platforms. Through our work with Intrexon, we have been able to produce a significant increase in the fermentation titer of MU1140 compared to standard fermentation methods and have discovered a new purification process for MU1140. Our work with Intrexon generated a substantial number of homologs of MU1140, and we are continuing our research and development and collaboration efforts with Intrexon to develop potential derivatives of the MU1140 molecule using genetically modified bacteria.

In our pre-clinical studies to support a potential IND filing with the FDA, we tested a total of six homologs of MU1140 for certain compound characteristics, including but not limited to: drug activity (based on minimum inhibitory concentration or “MIC”) equal or better than “standard of care” drugs against certain drug-resistant bacteria, safety, toxicity, stability, and manufacturability. An animal study specifically evaluated homolog efficacy in relation to survival, measurable amounts of Clostridium difficile (“C. diff”) colony forming units, and toxin levels. Three homologs demonstrated promising results with one homolog, OG253 achieving a 100% survival rate throughout the entire study in contrast to an approximately 30% survival rate for the vancomycin positive control.

Based on these early results, we selected a lead candidate, OG253, for which we had a pre IND meeting with the FDA in November of 2015 regarding the pursuit of an IND for OG253. Following additional research and development on second generation lantibiotics, in August of 2016, we opted to select a second generation lantibiotic, OG716, for treatment of C. diff as our new lead candidate. OG716 is a new, orally-active homolog, that has exhibited positive results in an animal model for potential treatment of C. diff . Generated from our MU1140 platform, this new lantibiotic showed promising efficacy in reducing clinically relevant C. diff infections as measured by increased animal survival and decreased relapse as well as reduced production of toxins A & B and C. diff spores when compared to a vancomycin positive control.

The timing of the filing of an IND regarding OG716 is subject to our having sufficient available capital given all of our anticipated needs and expected requirements in connection with our ongoing research and development initiatives. We currently expect the IND for a first-in-human clinical study of OG716 to be filed with the FDA based on our ability to complete the requisite studies, contingent on sufficient funding.

Other Product Candidates and Technologies.

In addition to our lantibiotics and oral mucositis product candidates, we also have other candidates and technologies in the oral care and weight loss areas. We do not intend to continue to develop these potential product candidates and technologies without partnering with a third party. We out-licensed the continued research and development of our weight loss product candidate in December 2013 to, LPThera LLC, and LPThera LLC continues to work to develop a product for commercial use. Our oral care product candidate SMaRT Replacement Therapy is positioned for out-licensing opportunities.

Recent Developments

Completed Underwritten Public Offering. On July 17, 2018, we announced the closing of an underwritten public offering of units for gross proceeds of approximately $13.8 million, which includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option to purchase additional shares and warrants, prior to deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us. The offering was comprised of Class A Units, priced at a public offering price of $1.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and a seven-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share (each, a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”), and Class B Units, priced at a public offering price of $1.00 per unit, with each unit comprised of one share of series D preferred stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), which is convertible into one share of common stock, and a Warrant. The conversion price of the Series D Preferred Stock issued in the transaction as well as the exercise price of the Warrants are fixed and do not contain any variable pricing features or any price based anti-dilutive features. The Series D Preferred Stock issued in this transaction includes a beneficial ownership blocker but has no dividend rights (except to the extent that dividends are also paid on the common stock), liquidation preference or other preferences over common stock, and, with certain exceptions, has no voting rights. The securities comprising the units were immediately separable and have been issued separately. A total of 4,436,000 shares of common stock, 9,364,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock convertible into 9,364,000 shares of common stock, and total warrants to purchase 13,800,000 shares of common stock were issued in the public offering inclusive of the underwriters exercise of their over-allotment option to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock at the public offering price per share less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The net proceeds to the Company from the public offering, after deducting Underwriter fees and expenses and the Company’s estimated public offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Warrants issued in the public offering, was approximately $12.3 million.

Amended our Articles of Incorporation. On June 22, 2018, our shareholders approved an amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 45,000,000 shares to 200,000,000 and such amendment became effective on June 25, 2018. The purpose of the increase in the number of authorized shares of our common stock is to provide flexibility in connection with our future financing efforts.

Amended our 2012 Equity Incentive Plan. On June 22, 2018, our shareholders approved an amendment to our 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 750,000 shares to 2,250,000 and such. The purpose of the increase in the number of authorized shares available under the Plan was to provide flexibility in connection with making awards, which is vital to our ability to attract and retain outstanding and highly skilled individuals in the extremely competitive labor markets in which we must compete.

We Reported Positive Interim Safety Analysis Results From our Phase 2 Clinical Trial of AG013 for Oral Mucositis. On May 30, 2018 we announced positive results from its interim safety analysis as requested by FDA on patients from its Phase 2 clinical trial of AG013 for the treatment of OM. Following review of the interim data by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB), it was concluded that the clinical trial can proceed with no changes to the study. The study also provided information that, we believe, likely indicates that the overall incidence of severe OM is less than would be anticipated in the general population. In addition, the DSMB concluded that the overall profile of adverse events were similar between AG013 and placebo and the serious adverse events reported were consistent with those commonly seen in a head and neck cancer population receiving traditional chemoradiation.

Completed Registered Direct Offering and Private Placement. On April 6, 2018, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell, in a registered offering by the us directly to the investors, an aggregate of 900,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at an offering price of $2.00 per share. In a concurrent private placement, we agreed to issue to the investors who participated in the registered offering, warrants exercisable for one share of common stock for each share purchased in the registered offering for an aggregate of warrants to purchase 900,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. Each warrant is exercisable beginning on the six-month anniversary of the date of its issuance and will expire five years from the date of issuance.

Consummated a Reverse Stock Split. On January 19, 2018 we effected a one for ten reverse stock split of our authorized and outstanding common stock, by filing Articles of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation. As a result of the reverse stock split (i) proportionate adjustments have been made to the per share exercise price and/or the number of shares issuable upon the exercise or vesting of all stock options and warrants issued by us and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time, which resulted in a proportionate decrease in the number of shares of our common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise or vesting of such stock options and warrants, and, in the case of stock options and warrants, a proportionate increase in the exercise price of all such stock options and warrants; (ii) proportionate adjustments have been made to the conversion price applicable to outstanding shares of Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; (iii) the number of shares authorized for future grant under our equity incentive/compensation plans immediately prior to the effective time was also reduced proportionately; and (iv) the number of authorized shares of common stock was reduced from 450,000,000 shares to 45,000,000 shares, provided however, such authorized shares were subsequently increased by the amendment to our Article of Incorporation dated June 22, 2018 referenced above.

About Us

We were incorporated in November 1996 and commenced operations in 1999. We consummated our initial public offering in June 2003. We have devoted substantially all of our available resources to our discovery efforts comprising research and development, clinical trials for our product candidates, protection of our intellectual property and the general and administrative support of these operations. We have generated limited revenues from grants and from our former consumer ProBiora3 product business through June 30, 2016 and have principally funded our operations through the sale of debt and equity securities, including the exercise of warrants issued in connection with financing transactions. In June of 2016, we completed the sale of our consumer probiotics business to ProBiora Health, LLC and as a result, we will no longer generate revenue from sales of consumer probiotic products.

As of June 30, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $105,860,153 and we have yet to achieve profitability. We incurred net losses of $4,400,686 and $3,203,562 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, and $6,731,525 and $7,013,304 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. We expect to incur significant and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future as we seek to advance our product candidates through preclinical testing and clinical trials to ultimately obtain regulatory approval and eventual commercialization. We will need to raise additional capital. Adequate additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. We expect that research and development expenses will increase along with general and administrative costs, as we seek to grow and continue to operate our business. Our net revenues were $0 and $464,048, for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Financial Overview

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development consists of expenses incurred in connection with the discovery and development of our product candidates. These expenses consist primarily of employee-related expenses, which include salaries and benefits and attending science conferences; expenses incurred under our ECC agreements with Intrexon and under other agreements with contract research organizations, investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials and a substantial portion of our nonclinical studies; the cost of acquiring and manufacturing clinical trial materials; facilities, depreciation and other allocated expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities and equipment, and depreciation of fixed assets; license fees, for and milestone payments related to, in-licensed products and technology; stock-based compensation expense; and costs associated with nonclinical activities and regulatory approvals. We expense research and development costs as incurred.

Our research and development expenses can be divided into (i) clinical research, and (ii) nonclinical research and development activities. Clinical research costs consist of clinical trials, manufacturing services, regulatory activities and related personnel costs, and other costs such as rent, utilities, depreciation and stock-based compensation. Nonclinical research and development costs consist of our research activities, nonclinical studies, related personnel costs and laboratory supplies, and other costs such as rent, utilities, depreciation and stock-based compensation and research expenses we incur associated with our ECC agreements with Intrexon. While we are currently focused on advancing our product development programs, our future research and development expenses will depend on the clinical success of our product candidates, as well as ongoing assessments of each product candidate’s commercial potential. In addition, we cannot forecast with any degree of certainty which product candidates may be subject to future collaborations, when such arrangements will be secured, if at all, and to what degree such arrangements would affect our development plans, research expenses and capital requirements.

Our research and development expenses were $2,597,783 and $1,727,872 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Our current strategy is to increase our research and development expenses in the future as we continue the advancement of our clinical trials and nonclinical product development programs for our lantibiotic product candidate and with respect to our oral

20

Table of Contents

mucositis product candidate. The lengthy process of completing clinical trials; seeking regulatory approval for our product candidates; and expanding the claims we are able to make, requires expenditure of substantial resources. Any failure or delay in completing clinical trials, or in obtaining regulatory approvals, could cause a delay in generating product revenues and cause our research and development expenses to increase and, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our operations. Our current product candidates are not expected to be commercially available until we are able to obtain regulatory approval from the FDA.

Our plan is to budget and manage expenditures in research and development such that they are undertaken in a cost-effective manner yet still advance the research and development efforts. While we have some control under our Lantibiotic ECC and Oral Mucositis ECC as to the planning and timing of the research and development and therefore the timing of when expenditures may be incurred for various phases of agreed upon projects, actual expenditures can vary from period to period. Subject to available capital, we expect overall research and development expenses to increase as a result of the expected initiation of our Phase 2b clinical trial on our oral mucositis product candidate as our financial resources permit. Our research and development projects are currently expected to be taken to the point where they can be licensed or partnered with larger pharmaceutical companies.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist principally of salaries and related costs for personnel in executive, finance, and administrative functions. Other general and administrative expenses include facility costs not otherwise included in research and development expenses, patent filing, and professional fees for legal, consulting, auditing and tax services.

We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses may continue to increase for, among others, the following reasons:

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) includes local business taxes, as well as interest income and expense. Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents, and interest earned on the stock subscription receivable. The primary objective of our investment policy is capital preservation. Interest expense consists primarily of interest and costs associated with our indebtedness.

Income Taxes

As of December 31, 2017, we have net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $93,966,000 to offset future federal and state income taxes. We also have research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $2,016,000 as of December 31, 2017 to offset future federal and state income taxes. Our net operating loss and research and development tax credit carryforwards will expire if not used by 2037 and 2027, respectively. Our ability to utilize our net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be limited in the event a change in ownership, as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, has occurred or may occur in the future. The private placement transaction with the KFLP in June 2009 (the “June 2009 Private Placement”) constituted such an event and our historical loss carryforwards up to such point in time were limited. Furthermore, our transactions with Intrexon during 2013 constituted a second such event, and our historical loss carryforwards up to December 2013 were further limited. See “Tax Loss Carryforwards.” In each period since our inception, we have recorded a 100% valuation allowance for the full amount of our deferred tax asset, as the realization of the deferred tax asset is uncertain. As a result, we have not recorded any federal tax benefit in our statements of operations.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Research and Development. Research and development expenses were $1,271,542 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $605,411 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $666,131or 110.0%. This increase was primarily due to increases in costs associated with work under the ECC’s of $742,147. This increase was partially offset by decreases in salary and salary related costs associated with research and development and patent costs of $46,252 and $27,611, respectively.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were $1,012,007 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $791,348 for three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $220,659 or 27.9%. This increase was primarily due to increases in salary and salary related costs, filing fees and registration costs, and legal costs of $146,600, $64,285, and $28,206, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in consulting costs of $20,396.

Other Income. Other income, net was $2,260 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $175,772 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, resulting in a net change of $173,512. The net change was primarily attributable to a net change in derivative liabilities of $231,644 which was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense of $57,201.

Discontinued Operations. On June 22, 2016, we sold the assets constituting our consumer probiotic business and as such have accounted for such business as a discontinued operation. Profit from discontinued operations was $-0- for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $121 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, resulting in a net change of $(121).

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Research and Development. Research and development expenses were $2,597,783 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $1,727,872 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $869,911 or 50.3%. This increase was primarily due to increases in costs associated with work under the ECC’s of $1,145,951. This increase was partially offset by decreases in salary and salary related costs associated with research and development, insurance, and patent costs of $254,388, $10,758, and $9,237, respectively.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were $1,807,470 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $1,656,543 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $150,927 or 9.1%%. This increase was primarily due to increases in salary and salary related costs, legal, filing fees and registration costs, transfer agent costs, and accounting costs of $129,111, $48,965, $26,523, $20,211, and $15,225, respectively. These increases were partially offset by decreases in stock based compensation, depreciation, and consulting costs of $39,656, $24,690, and $21,712, respectively.

Other Income. Other income, net was $4,567 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $180,853 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, resulting in a net change of $176,286. The net change was primarily attributable to a net change in derivative liabilities of $231,644 which was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense of $57,165.

Discontinued Operations. On June 22, 2016, we sold the assets constituting our consumer probiotic business and as such have accounted for such business as a discontinued operation. Profit from discontinued operations was $-0- for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $-0- for the six months ended June 30, 2017, resulting in a net change of $-0-.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our inception, we have funded our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities in our initial public offering, the sale of equity securities and warrants in private placements, debt financing, warrant exercises, public offerings, and grants. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, our operating activities used cash of $3,647,459 and $3,665,508, respectively. The use of cash in all periods primarily resulted from our net losses adjusted for non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities. We had a working capital surplus of $3,639,937 and $6,294,650 at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, our investing activities used cash of $-0- and $-0-, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, our financing activities used cash of $1,421,846 and $1,673,816, respectively. The cash used by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 was primarily due to the reductions in short term notes payable offset by the settlement of the stock subscription receivable.

Financing

Additional details of our financing activities for the periods reflected in this report are provided below:

The May 2017 Series A Preferred Stock Financing

On May 10, 2017 we entered into a securities purchase agreement with three accredited investors, to purchase up to $3,000,000 of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock Financing”). The sale of 1,200,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock took place in two separate closings and at the first closing which occurred on May 10, 2017, we received gross proceeds of approximately $1,302,000. The second closing occurred on July 25, 2017 and we received gross proceeds of approximately $1,698,000, which was the balance of the Preferred Stock Financing. The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,200,000 shares of our Common Stock. The purchase price per share of the Series A Preferred Stock is represented by $2.50 per share of the Common Stock on an as converted basis. In addition, we issued to the investors in the private placement accompanying common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,064,520 shares of Common Stock (the “Series A Warrants”). The Series A Warrants have a term of seven years from the date of issuance and are non-exercisable until six (6) months after issuance and have an exercise price of $3.10 per share. Proceeds from the Preferred Stock Financing (including the exercise of any warrants for cash) will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital.

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants, we granted certain demand registration rights and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of our Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants, pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement.

Table of Contents

Except as otherwise required by law, the Series A Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, we shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Certificate of Designation, (b) amend its articles of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, (c) increase the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or (d) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up by us, whether voluntary or involuntary that is not a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, the greater of (i) the product of the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then held by such holder, multiplied by the Original Issue Price; and (ii) the amount that would be payable to such holder in the Liquidation in respect of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock if all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock immediately prior to the Liquidation.

The May 2017 Intrexon Debt Financing and ECC Amendment

On May 10, 2017, concurrently with the above referenced Series A Preferred Stock Financing, we entered into Note Purchase Agreement with Intrexon pursuant to which the Company issued a $2,400,000 unsecured non-convertible promissory note to Intrexon (the “Intrexon Note”) and amended the first milestone in our Oral Mucositis exclusive channel collaboration agreement (the “May Oral Mucositis ECC Amendment”) with Intrexon. The Intrexon Note matured in two (2) years and has a simple interest rate of 12% per annum. Proceeds from the Intrexon Note will be used to fund our AG013 research and clinical trials. In addition to, and as part of the Intrexon Note, we amended the first milestone payment on the Oral Mucositis ECC from a $2,000,000 payment upon first dosing of a patient to a $3,000,000 payment upon the earlier of (a) dosing of the last patient, in a Phase 2 clinical trial, and (b) the twenty four (24) month anniversary of the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 2 clinical trial. Simultaneously with the amendment to the Oral Mucositis ECC a similar amendment was put in place with respect to our Stock Issuance Agreement with Intrexon reflecting the milestone amendment. The Intrexon Note, including accrued and unpaid interest, was subsequently repaid in November 2017 through the issuance of Series C Preferred Stock (see below).

The November 2017 Series B Preferred Stock Financing

On November 8, 2017, we completed a private placement of $3,300,000 of Series B, Non-Voting, Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement with four existing shareholders who are accredited investors including, the Koski Family Limited Partnership, an entity affiliated with a director of the Company, (the “Series B Preferred Stock Financing”).

The full $3,300,000 of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,320,000 shares of our Common Stock. The purchase price per share of the Series B Preferred Stock is represented by $2.50 per share of the Common Stock on an as converted basis. In addition, we issued to the investors in the private placement accompanying common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,064,518 shares of Common Stock (the “Series B Warrants”). The Series B Warrants have a term of seven years from the date of issuance and are non-exercisable until six (6) months after issuance and have an exercise price of $3.10 per share.

The Series C Preferred Stock Issuance and Intrexon Debt Conversion

Concurrently with the Series B Preferred Stock Financing, we entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement (the “Intrexon Debt Conversion Agreement”) with Intrexon pursuant to which Intrexon exchanged amounts owed by us to Intrexon under the Intrexon Note, and trade payables in the aggregate amount of approximately $3,400,000 for equity in the form of 100 shares of Series C, Non-Voting, Non-Convertible, Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) issued by us to Intrexon pursuant to the Debt Conversion Agreement.

Each issued and outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock entitles the holder of record to receive dividends at the annual rate of twelve percent (12%) (the “Initial Rate”) of its Stated Value, payable by issuing additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock within thirty days after the end of each calendar year pro-rata for partial years. The Initial Rate shall be subject to increase to twenty percent (20%) automatically, after May 10, 2019, if the Series C Preferred Stock is not earlier redeemed by us. On January 25, 2018 we paid a dividend on our Series C Preferred Stock to Intrexon of 1.733 shares of additional Series C Preferred Stock for the portion of 2017 the Series C Preferred Stock was outstanding.

The April 6, 2018 Registered Direct Offering and Private Placement.

On April 6, 2018, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell, in a registered offering by the us directly to the investors, an aggregate of 900,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at an offering price of $2.00 per share. In a concurrent private placement, we agreed to issue to the investors who participated in the registered offering, warrants exercisable for one share of common stock for each share purchased in the registered offering for an aggregate of warrants to purchase 900,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. Each warrant is exercisable beginning on the six-month anniversary of the date of its issuance and will expire five years from the date of issuance.

The July 17, 2018 Underwritten Public Offering

On July 17, 2018, we announced the closing of an underwritten public offering of units for gross proceeds of approximately $13.8 million, which includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option to purchase additional shares and warrants, prior to deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us.

The offering was comprised of Class A Units, priced at a public offering price of $1.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and a seven-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per

23

Table of Contents

share (each, a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”), and Class B Units, priced at a public offering price of $1.00 per unit, with each unit comprised of one share of series D preferred stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), which is convertible into one share of common stock, and a Warrant. The conversion price of the Series D Preferred Stock issued in the transaction as well as the exercise price of the Warrants are fixed and do not contain any variable pricing features or any price based anti-dilutive features. The Series D Preferred Stock issued in this transaction includes a beneficial ownership blocker but has no dividend rights (except to the extent that dividends are also paid on the common stock), liquidation preference or other preferences over common stock, and, with certain exceptions, has no voting rights. The securities comprising the units were immediately separable and have been issued separately.

A total of 4,436,000 shares of common stock, 9,364,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock convertible into 9,364,000 shares of common stock, and total warrants to purchase 13,800,000 shares of common stock were issued in the offering inclusive of the underwriters exercise of their over-allotment option to purchase 1,800,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to an additional 1,800,000 shares of common stock at the public offering price per share less the underwriting discounts and commissions.

Other Financings

We enter into short term financing arrangements for the payment of our annual insurance premiums for our products liability insurance and directors and officers and employment practices insurance.

On March 10, 2018, we entered into a short-term note payable for $28,915 bearing interest at 5.09% per annum to finance the product liability insurance. Principal and interest payments on this note began April 10, 2018 and are made evenly based on a straight line amortization over a 11-month period with the final payment being due on February 10, 2019.

On March 10, 2017, we entered into a short-term note payable for $31,985 bearing interest at 6.18% per annum to finance the product liability insurance. Principal and interest payments on this note began April 10, 2017 and such payments are to be made evenly based on a straight line amortization over a 10-month period with the final payment being made on January 2, 2018.

Future Capital Requirements

Our capital requirements for the remainder of 2018 and into 2019 will depend on numerous factors, including the success of our research and development, the resources we devote to develop and support our technologies and our success in pursuing strategic licensing and funded product development relationships with external partners. Subject to our ability to raise additional capital including through possible joint ventures and/or partnerships, we expect to incur substantial expenditures to further commercialize or develop our technologies including continued increases in costs related to research, nonclinical testing and clinical studies, as well as costs associated with our capital raising efforts and being a public company. We will require substantial funds to conduct research and development and nonclinical and Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical testing of our licensed, patented technologies and to develop sublicensing relationships for the Phase 2 and 3 clinical testing and manufacture and marketing of any products that are approved for commercial sale. Our plans include seeking both equity and debt financing, alliances or other partnership agreements with entities interested in our technologies, or other business transactions that would generate sufficient resources to ensure continuation of our operations and research and development programs.

We believe our current available cash and cash equivalents, including the net proceeds from our recently completed public offering, will allow us to fund our operating plan through June 2019. We expect to continue to seek additional funding for our operations. Any such required additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all. If we were unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, delay or eliminate some or all of our planned clinical testing, research and development activities, which could harm our business. The sale of additional equity or debt securities may result in additional dilution to our shareholders. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities or preferred stock, these securities could have rights senior to those of our common stock and could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. We also will require additional capital beyond our currently forecasted amounts. For example, as we continue to work with Intrexon under the Lantibiotic ECC for the development of MU1140 homologs and in our Oral Mucositis ECC including the currently pending clinical trial, we will require additional capital.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with research, development and clinical testing of our product candidates, we are unable to estimate the exact amounts of our working capital requirements. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:

We have based our estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong. We may need to obtain additional funds sooner or in greater amounts than we currently anticipate. Potential sources of financing include strategic relationships, public or private sales of our shares or debt and other sources. We may seek to access the public or private equity markets when conditions are favorable due to our long-term capital requirements. We do not have any committed sources of financing at this time, and it is uncertain whether additional funding will be available when we need it on terms that will be acceptable to us, or at all. If we raise funds by selling additional shares of common stock or other securities convertible into common stock, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we are not able to obtain financing when needed, we may be unable to carry out our business plan. As a result, we may have to significantly limit our operations and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially harmed.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made; and changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been made could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. The principal areas of estimation reflected in the financial statements are anticipated milestone payments, stock based compensation, valuation of warrants, and income tax valuation allowance. Inventory obsolescence reserve, sales returns and allowances and allowance for doubtful accounts were the principal areas of estimation that had been reflected in the financial statements related to discontinued operations. For a detailed discussion of our critical accounting estimates, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There are no accounting pronouncements issued or effective during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 that have had or are expected to have an impact on our financial statements.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act was performed under the supervision and participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The purpose of disclosure controls and procedures is to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2018 in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported with the time periods specified in the Securities and exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded there were no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding that is not in the ordinary course of business or otherwise material to our financial condition or business.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, subsection “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results of operations. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and future results of operations. The following information updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A, subsection “Risk Factors” to Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 filed on February 16, 2018. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have incurred significant losses since our inception and expect to continue to experience losses for the foreseeable future.

We have incurred significant net losses and negative cash flow in each year since our inception, including net losses of approximately and $4.4 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, and approximately $6.7 million and $7.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. As of June 30, 2018 our accumulated deficit was approximately $105.9 million. We have devoted a significant amount of our financial resources to research and development, including our nonclinical development activities and clinical trials. We expect that the expenses associated with our anticipated clinical trial for our oral mucositis product candidate to increase. We expect the costs associated with our exclusive channel partnerships with Intrexon in the areas of lantibiotics (“Lantibiotics Program”) and Oral Mucositis (“Oral Mucositis Program”) and the development and commercialization of our product candidates under the Lantibiotics Program (which includes MU1140 homologs) using Intrexon’s advanced transgene and cell engineering platforms will also continue to increase and as such the level of our overall expenses will increase significantly going forward. As a result, we expect to continue to incur substantial net losses and negative cash flow for the foreseeable future. These losses and negative cash flows have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our shareholders’ equity and working capital. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development and commercialization, we are unable to accurately predict the timing or amount of substantial expenses or when, or if, we will be able to generate the revenue necessary to achieve or maintain profitability.

We will need to raise additional capital in the future to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidates and operate our business.

Developing and commercializing biopharmaceutical products, including conducting nonclinical studies and clinical trials and establishing manufacturing capabilities, is expensive. We anticipate that our cash resources as of June 30, 2018, together with our recently completed underwritten public offering of our equity securities, will be sufficient to fund our operations as presently structured through June 2019. However, changes may occur that would consume our existing capital prior to that time, including the scope and progress of our efforts to develop and commercialize our product candidates. Our actual costs may ultimately vary from our current expectations, which could materially impact our use of capital and our forecast of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations. Our current cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are not sufficient to fully implement our business strategy and sustain our operations over a longer period of time. Accordingly, we will need to seek additional sources of financing and such additional financing may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. Until we can generate a sufficient amount of product revenue, if ever, we expect to finance future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to complete existing nonclinical and planned clinical trials or obtain approval of our product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. We expect capital outlays and operating expenditures to increase over the next several years as we expand our infrastructure, and research and development activities. Specifically, we will need to raise additional capital to, among other things:

Our present and future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including:

Additional capital, if needed, may not be available on satisfactory terms, or at all. Furthermore, if we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, dilution to our existing stockholders could result. Any equity securities issued also may provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt securities, these debt securities would have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock, and the terms of the debt securities issued could impose significant restrictions on our operations. If we raise additional funds through collaborations and licensing arrangements, we might be required to relinquish significant rights to our technologies or our products under development or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us, which could lower the economic value of those programs to us. If adequate funds are not available, we may have to scale back our operations or limit our research and development activities, which may cause us to grow at a slower pace, or not at all, and our business could be adversely affected.

In addition, we could be forced to discontinue product development and commercialization of one or more of our product candidates, curtail or forego sales and marketing efforts, and/or forego licensing attractive business opportunities.

Our auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and absent additional financing we may be unable to remain a going concern.

In light of our recurring losses, accumulated deficit and negative cash flow as described in our notes to our audited financial statements, the report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 contains an explanatory paragraph raising substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary in the event we are unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to establish to the satisfaction of our independent registered public accounting firm that the net proceeds from our financing efforts will be sufficient to allow for the removal of this going concern qualification, we may need to significantly modify our operational plans for us to continue as a going concern. While we believe we can continue our current level of operations with the cash we have on hand through June 2019, we will need to arrange additional financing to remain a going concern.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

The conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock and the exercise of currently outstanding warrants could result in significant dilution to the holders of our common stock.

The holders of our Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock may convert their shares of preferred stock into shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2018 on a post reverse split basis, we had outstanding: (i) 9,417,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, which are convertible into 941,701 shares of common stock and (ii) 6,600,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which are convertible into 1,320,002 shares of common stock. We also recently issued a total of 9,364,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock convertible into 9,364,000 shares of common stock in our recent underwritten public offering which closed on July 17, 2018. In addition to our outstanding shares of preferred stock, (i) as of June 30, 2018, there were currently outstanding warrants to purchase 3,077,425 shares of our common stock and (ii) we issued additional warrants to purchase 13,800,000 shares of common stock in our recent underwritten public offering which closed on July 17, 2018. The conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock, as well as the exercise of our outstanding warrants could result in significant dilution to existing common shareholders, adversely affect the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities.

The issuance of additional equity securities by us in the future would result in dilution to our existing common shareholders and we recently completed an underwritten public offering which resulted in a significant increase in our outstanding shares.

Our board of directors has authority, without action or vote of our shareholders, to issue all or a part of our authorized but unissued shares, except where shareholder approval is required by law. Any issuance of additional equity securities by us in the future could result in dilution to our existing common shareholders. Such issuances could be made at a price that reflects a discount or a premium to the then-current trading price of our common stock. In addition, our business strategy may include expansion through internal growth by acquiring complementary businesses, acquiring or licensing additional products or brands, or establishing strategic relationships with targeted customers and suppliers. In order to do so, or to finance the cost of our other activities, we may issue additional equity securities that could result in further dilution to our existing common shareholders. These issuances would dilute the percentage ownership interest of our existing common shareholders, which would have the effect of reducing their influence on matters on which our shareholders vote, and might dilute the book value of our common stock. For example, we issued a total of 4,436,000 shares of common stock, 9,364,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock convertible into 9,364,000 shares of common stock, and total warrants to purchase 13,800,000 shares of common stock in our recent underwritten public offering that closed on July 17, 2018 and as a result our outstanding shares of common stock has increased significantly from 4,927,422 shares as of August 11, 2017 to 11,837,635 shares as of August 8, 2018.

None other than what was previously disclosed on our Form 8-K filing on April 10, 2018.
