PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
We are a medical technology company focused on (i) diagnostic, ablation and deep brain stimulation technology for brain related conditions such as epilepsy and Parkinson’s disease; (ii) ablation and stimulation for pain management throughout the body; and (iii) drug delivery including diagnostic and stimulation capabilities.
We have received 510(k) clearance for four of our devices from the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), including: (i) our Evo cortical electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) recording, monitoring, and stimulation on the surface of the brain (“Evo Cortical”), (ii) our Evo sEEG electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain (“Evo sEEG”), (iii) our OneRF ablation system for creation of radiofrequency lesions in nervous tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures (“OneRF Brain Ablation System”), and (iv) our OneRF TN ablation system for use in procedures to create radiofrequency lesions for the treatment of pain, or for lesioning nerve tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures (“OneRF TN Ablation System”). We have a distribution agreement with Zimmer, Inc. (“Zimmer”) providing Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. with a license to commercialize and distribute the Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Brain Ablation System in the brain. We initiated a limited market release of the OneRF TN Ablation System in December 2025. The Company’s other products and indications are still under development.
Products
We are focused on developing thin film electrode technology for a variety of recording and therapeutic applications. These cortical sheet and depth electrode technologies are crucial for diagnosing neurological disorders such as epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, and other related conditions.
Commercialized Products
| ● | Evo® Cortical: Cortical or subdural electrodes are used in intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) surgeries to monitor, record and stimulate the surface of the brain for less than 30 days. Our Evo cortical electrode portfolio consists of various contact configurations of strip and grid electrodes. |
| ● | Evo sEEG: Evo® sEEG Electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain. Federal (USA) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. Evo sEEG enhances the ability to identify the right foci zones to determine the best intervention for patients. |
| ● | OneRF® Brain Ablation System: Our OneRF Brain Ablation System is indicated for creation of radiofrequency lesions in nervous tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures. It provides bedside monitoring, mapping and ablation using the same device, giving physicians a less invasive, potentially safer way to gain improved bedside clarity of the therapeutic window for an epilepsy patient with the possibility of seizure reduction or freedom. |
| ● | OneRF® TN Ablation System: Our OneRF® Trigeminal Nerve Ablation System is indicated for use in procedures to create radiofrequency lesions for the treatment of pain, or for lesioning nerve tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures. Differentiated features of this system include a “first-of-its-kind” multi-contact RF probe that allows for both precise localization and tailored ablation of the pain-conducting nerve tissue – using the same RF probe, and under temperature-controlled conditions which enhance safety and accuracy. This system may allow for reduced procedural time, improved patient comfort and improved patient safety. |

Products in Development
Drug delivery including diagnostic and stimulation capabilities
| ● | Drug delivery: We are also researching and developing the capability to create a new type of combination device based on our sEEG electrode technology to deliver drugs or gene or cell therapies while having the ability to record brain activity before, during, and after delivery. This future device is intended to deliver neurological drugs or gene or cell therapies that are FDA approved or that are currently planned for clinical trials or in development to allow for monitoring, recording and stimulation and drug delivery for less than 30 days. In addition to having the capability of delivering a drug through the center lumen, it will also be able to record brain activity before, during, and after drug delivery. FDA clearance is not required for pre-clinical studies although we are pursuing a 510(k) clearance with the FDA for use with an approved brain cancer drug. We also intend to offer drug delivery devices for pre-clinical animal models. |
Recording, Ablation and stimulation for pain management throughout the body
| ● | Spinal Cord Stimulation (“SCS”): This system addresses chronic back pain (CBP) by placing electrodes in the spine connected to an implantable pulse generator. CBP is a debilitating condition that affects patients who experience chronic lower back and leg pain, reduced quality of life, and significant functional limitations. Our SCS solution utilizes a percutaneously-placed thin-film paddle electrode to deliver precise electrical stimulation to the spinal cord, blocking pain signals and providing relief to patients. This capability opens the use and implantation of paddle electrodes to pain management doctors, who currently only implant traditional percutaneous electrodes but perform the majority of these procedures in the United States. Current paddle electrodes are predominantly implanted by surgeons. |
| ● | Basivertebral Nerve Ablation (“BVNA”): This system would target the basiverterbal nerve to address lower back pain and improve function. Our solution would leverage our existing ablation technology while taking advantage of our multi-contact sEEG probes to increase placement flexibility. |
These products in development are examples of our interest to pursue development of less invasive “all-in-one solutions”. We believe these technologies offer both patients and physicians better options to treat epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other pain-related neurological disorders.
Our Market Opportunity
Epilepsy Market
Our initial disease target has included the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy. Epilepsy can be caused by a variety of conditions that affect a person’s brain, some of which are: genetics, autoimmune responses, stroke, brain tumor, traumatic brain injury and central nervous system infections. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (the “CDC”) and Citizens United for Research in Epilepsy (“CURE”), there are approximately 3,000,000 patients annually suffering with epilepsy in the United States, with an additional 200,000 diagnosed every year. The CDC and CURE also estimate that epilepsy costs the United States $15.5 billion per year. Approximately 30-40% of these patients are not receptive to pharmaceutical treatment and may be candidates for surgical treatment of this disorder. In addition to poor quality of life, epilepsy also is associated with fairly high mortality rates. Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy has an annual incidence of approximately 1/1000 in epilepsy patients. Despite the large market opportunity, it is estimated only about 5,000 epilepsy surgeries performed each year in the United States.1

FORM 10-K
These numbers represent an underpenetrated market due to the invasiveness of diagnostic procedures. After the diagnostic procedure, a second therapeutic procedure is required and at times even a third surgery if the seizures persist. We believe patients are unwilling to proceed due to the long diagnostic and treatment procedure times (one to four weeks in the hospital after a potential craniotomy for diagnosis). As detailed above, after the diagnosis is completed, if successful, the patient must undergo an additional procedure to have the affected area of brain tissue ablated or removed. The average cost for the diagnostic technology per procedure could be over $10,000, with ablation devices costing >$15,000. We believe our technology, once developed, will offer an all-in-one solution with diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities.
Many leading neurologists believe that the limits of today’s current technologies are the reason the exact cause of epileptic seizures is not well-determined. We believe our technology provides a number of advantages over other commercially available technologies, including the following:
| ● | We expect that our technology may be implanted using a less invasive procedure utilizing a burr hole rather than a full craniotomy. |
| ● | Our technology provides accurate detection of irregular brain activity and may be used for the treatment of the condition. |
Trigeminal Neuralgia
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a sudden and intense pain in the case that drives thousands of people to seek treatment each year. TN related pain is described as a stabbing, shooting, sharp or piercing sensation. It can occur anywhere between the jaw and forehead, including in the mouth. Vascular compression of the trigeminal nerve root is a typical cause for TN. Over 150,000 people live with TN in the US, and approximately 15,000 are diagnosed each year.2
Back Pain – Spinal Cord Stimulation and BVNA
Chronic back pain is one of the most prevalent chronic conditions in the world. According to the CDC, “in 2016, an estimated 20.4% of U.S. adults had chronic pain and 8.0% of U.S. adults had high-impact chronic pain. Chronic pain has been linked to numerous physical and mental conditions and contributes to high health care costs and lost productivity”. FBSS is one of leading causes for chronic lower back/leg pain due to one or more failed back surgeries. Typically, it is related to patients that suffer with pain after surgery of the lumbar spine for degenerative disc disease. Re-operations are usually not recommended for these patients due to low success rates. These patients experience greater levels of pain, a lower quality of life, varying levels of disability and higher rate of unemployment. Spinal cord stimulation works by placing an electrode(s) in a targeted area of the spine which is then connected to an implantable pulse generator that sends electrical stimulation to the electrode to block the pain signals from reaching the brain. The global market for SCS is substantial, with an estimated value of approximately $2.5 to $3 billion.
The chronic back pain market includes the following indications: FBSS, Ischemic Limb Pain, and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (among others). Over half of this market is comprised of patients with FBSS. Studies have indicated a benefit for some patients suffering from chronic back and lower limb pain when they have been treated with electrical stimulation. Prior to the patient receiving an implant, they undergo a trial period that allows them to determine if they are receiving relief from the therapy while preventing a surgery to implant the pulse generator that provides the stimulation. If the trial period is successful, then the device is implanted in a follow-up procedure.

Basivertebral Nerve Ablation (BVNA) includes adults with chronic low back pain (CLBP) (≥6 months), specifically vertebrogenic pain from inflamed vertebral endplates (Modic Type 1 or 2 changes on MRI), who haven’t found relief from at least 6 months of conservative treatments like PT, meds, or injections, targeting pain in the vertebral bodies. We believe the total market for BVNA procedures currently performed in the United States is approximately $100 million per year (>10,000 procedures per year), and growing rapidly.
Drug Delivery
In the near term, our drug delivery system in development has already been ordered by a large biopharmaceutical company planning to test NeuroOne’s system in preclinical research, representing a completely new market for NeuroOne. We believe the market for the preclinical research in drug development is greater than $50 million. Additionally, we are in early conversations with potential strategic partners related to the ongoing development of specific drug delivery combinations. We believe the full market commercial opportunity for this type of application to be potentially over $1 billion.
Parkinson’s Disease
The Parkinson’s Disease Foundation estimates that as many as 1,000,000 patients in the United States live with Parkinson’s disease with an additional 60,000 patients diagnosed per year. Over 10,000,000 patients worldwide are living with Parkinson’s disease. The average onset is over 60 years old, but some people have been diagnosed as young as 40 years old.
Today’s primary treatment for Parkinson’s disease involves medications that have not proven to be curative but rather ease symptoms. One of the potential treatments for Parkinson’s patients is DBS. According to the Michael J. Fox Parkinson’s Disease Research Foundation website, patients that seem to do best with DBS are those that have had the disease for at least four years and have benefited from taking medications prescribed to control the disease. In addition, DBS seems to help with reducing the issues with motor functions such as tremors, stiffness and slowness but not for balance issues.
Essential Tremors
Essential tremors are thought to be due to electrical irregularities in the brain that send abnormal signals to the muscles. It is a progressive condition that worsens over time and is linked to genetic disorders that typically appear in people who are over 40. Essential tremors usually occur alone and without any other neurological symptoms or signs. The tremors usually occur when the hands are raised and primarily affect the hands. Muscles in the trunk, face and neck may also experience symptoms. Genetics Home Reference estimates that as many as 10,000,000 people in the United States are affected by the disease.
Dystonia
Dystonia is a neurological condition recognized as a motion disorder that involves over activity of a variety of different muscles simultaneously that work against each other. It presents itself in a variety of symptoms but typically involves repetitive, patterned and often twisting involuntary muscle contractions resembling tremors. According to the Dystonia Medical Research Foundation, over 300,000 people are affected in the United States and Canada alone.

Limitations of Other Currently Available Therapies
There are a limited number of other currently available products for diagnosis and treatment for people with neurological disorders. Although the other currently available systems provide diagnosis and treatment for patients, they have certain inherent limitations and shortcomings that we believe limit their use and validate the need for improved technology in the market. These limitations include:
| ● | Requirement for multiple devices for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures: Today both interventional diagnostic and treatment procedures may require different device implants, surgeries and even hospitalizations for each procedure. This causes significant patient inconvenience, use of precious hospital resources and tremendous cost to the system. |
| ● | Limited number of contacts on an electrode: SCS electrodes currently are available in a variety of sizes and number of contacts. Physicians increasingly want to explore greater number of contacts on the same electrode in order to be able to be more precise in stimulating targeted areas. This is also true for existing BVNA systems, which are limited to probes with only two contacts, requiring extremely precise placement of the probes and limiting flexibility. |
| ● | No ability to record brain activity during drug delivery: Currently available drug delivery devices do not have the ability to record brain activity before, during or after delivery of the drug with the same device. |
| ● | More invasive: All existing spinal cord paddle electrodes are more invasive than our SCS paddle electrodes under development, and the electrode itself is 20 times bigger than our proposed design. |
Our Solution
In comparison to other currently available technologies, our existing products and products in development all have the goal of providing the following advantages (and expected advantages):
| ● | All-in-one diagnostic and therapeutic technology solution: Our OneRF Brain Ablation System, indicated for creation of radiofrequency lesions in nervous tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures, provides bedside monitoring, mapping and ablation, giving physicians a less invasive, potentially safer way to gain improved bedside clarity of the therapeutic window for an epilepsy patient with the possibility of seizure reduction or freedom. It is the first and only FDA-cleared system capable of nervous tissue ablation using the same Evo® sEEG-RF Electrode for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. |
| ● | Multi-contact probe for OneRF TN: With the OneRF TN Ablation System, surgeons could simplify the ablation process to a single decisive step. The innovative multi-contact probe may enable stimulation/mapping and ablation in fewer cycles, and may significantly reduce patient discomfort and procedure complexity. |
| ● | Percutaneous placement of spinal cord stimulation paddle electrode with scalability options: Due to the thin film nature of our electrode technology, we believe that it may allow for percutaneous placement of “paddle” (flat) shaped electrodes, thereby preventing the need to use more invasive surgical approaches to place the electrodes. Minimally invasive and percutaneously placed technologies have become almost a requirement for adoption with patients and physicians. |
| ● | Increased contacts: We believe that both our spinal cord stimulation electrode in development and our BBNA product in development will offer the ability to increase the number of contacts on a film that traditionally offers fewer contacts. Increasing the number of contacts may allow for more precise stimulation in the spine, potentially improving the therapeutic outcomes. |
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
| ● | Improved accuracy of diagnostic technologies: The Evo sEEG is engineered for accuracy, enhancing the ability to identify the right foci zones to determine the best intervention for patients. |
| ● | Ability to record during drug delivery: Our drug delivery product in development is designed to be able to record brain tissue before, during or after delivery of the drug. |
| ● | Automated manufacturing: Our electrode technology is cost competitive to competitors due to the scalable, automated manufacturing process. This also increases the reliability and consistency of the manufacturing process, and allows for faster fulfillment of product. |
Our Strategy
Our goal is to be the global leader in minimally invasive all in one therapies for brain related and other neurological disorders that leverages our thin film electrode technology to be used for recording, monitoring, deep brain and peripheral stimulation and ablation, drug delivery, owning the procedure from diagnosis through treatment. The key elements of our strategy include:
| ● | Expand the use of our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG and OneRF Brain Ablation System in the United States and begin the process to commercialize expand into select international markets: In July 2020, we entered into a development relationship with Zimmer, pursuant to which we granted Zimmer exclusive global rights to distribute our Evo Cortical, which was ultimately expanded to include rights to our Evo sEEG and OneRF Brain Ablation System (the “Zimmer Distribution Agreement”). Zimmer actively promotes and sell these products. In fiscal 2025, we received product revenue from these products of approximately $9.1 million. |
| ● | Launch our OneRF TN Ablation System: In December 2025, we initiated a limited market release of our OneRF TN Ablation System. The OneRF Trigeminal Nerve Ablation System features a minimally invasive surgical technology to treat severe, chronic facial pain. The system delivers targeted RF energy to ablate trigeminal nerve fibers, interrupting pain signaling. Differentiated features of this system include a “first-of-its-kind” multi-contact RF probe that allows for both precise localization and targeted ablation of the pain-conducting nerve tissue - using the same RF probe - and under temperature-controlled conditions, which enhances safety and accuracy. This system may also allow for reduced procedural time, as well as improved patient comfort and safety. |
| ● | Continue to develop percutaneous placed paddle electrodes for spinal cord and peripheral stimulation for pain management with scalable contact configurations: We believe that our flexible thin film technology will allow for percutaneous placement of “paddle” shaped electrodes, thus potentially eliminating the need to make a more invasive surgical procedure. Spinal cord clinical literature over the years have shown that “paddle” electrodes (flat shaped) require less energy for stimulation (thus saving neurostimulator battery life) and may be associated with lower revision rates over time. Even then, “paddle” shaped electrodes are used less often due to the more invasive surgical procedure that is required for placement. But we hope to change that paradigm by creating “paddle” electrodes that can be implanted percutaneously (less invasively) through a “needle hole incision”. This capability opens the use and implantation of paddle electrodes to pain management doctors, who currently only implant traditional percutaneous electrodes. Current paddle electrodes are predominantly implanted by surgeons. By leveraging our existing FDA-cleared technologies, we may also be able to offer the ability to improve precision of where the stimulation is delivered. NeuroOne’s platform thin film technology has the capability to increase the number of contacts in a similar footprint that has fewer contacts. |
| ● | Facilitate partnerships for drug delivery: Partner with biotech, pharmaceutical or biopharma companies to provide a drug delivery sEEG electrode capable of delivering the therapy and recording before, during and after the therapy is delivered for up to 30 days. |
| ● | Develop BVNA System: We intend to leverage our existing FDA-cleared technologies to develop a BVNA system, and using our multi-contact probes to increase placement flexibility compared to existing cleared BVNA systems. We established an advisory board for our BVNA development program in October 2025. |
| ● | Explore partnerships with other companies that leverage our core technology: Given that our technology enables, complements and/or competes with a number of companies that are in the market or attempting to enter the market with diagnostic or therapeutic technologies to treat brain related disorders, we believe there may be opportunities to establish mutually beneficial relationships. In addition, our technology may have application in cardiovascular, orthopedic and pain related indications that could benefit from a high-fidelity thin film electrode product that can provide stimulation and/or ablation therapies. |

WARF may terminate this license on 30 days’ written notice, if we default on the payments of amounts due to WARF or fail to timely submit development reports, actively pursue our development plan or breach any other covenant in the WARF License and fail to remedy such default in 90 days or in the event of certain bankruptcy events involving us. WARF may also terminate the WARF License (i) on 90 days’ notice if we had failed to have commercial sales of one or more FDA-approved products under the WARF License by June 30, 2021 or (ii) if, after royalties earned on sales begin to be paid, such earned royalties cease for more than four calendar quarters. The first commercial sale occurred on December 7, 2020, prior to the June 30, 2021 deadline. The WARF License otherwise expires by its terms on the date that no valid claims on the patents licensed thereunder remain. We expect the latest expiration of a licensed patent to occur in 2030.
In addition, WARF reserves the right to grant non-profit research institutions and government agencies non-exclusive licenses to practice and use the inventions of the licensed patents for non-commercial research purposes, and we grant WARF a non-exclusive, sub licensable, royalty-free right and license for non-commercial research purposes to use improvements to the licensed patents. In the event that we discontinue use or commercialization of the licensed patents or improvements thereon, we must grant WARF an option to obtain a non-exclusive, sub-licensable, royalty-bearing license to use the improvements for commercial purposes.

Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, Zimmer made an upfront payment of $2.0 million to the Company in August 2020.
In August 2022, we entered into an amendment to the Distribution Agreement with Zimmer that provided us with a $3.5 million accelerated payment relating to certain milestone events. In addition, Zimmer received a Warrant to purchase 350,000 shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value, with an exercise price of $3.00 per share.
In October 2024, we amended and restated our development and distribution agreement with Zimmer to grant exclusive right and license to distribute also our OneRF Ablation System (the “OneRF Products”) for an upfront fee of $3 million dollars and up to an additional $1 million dollars upon achievement of certain net sales milestone by Zimmer (as amended, the “Zimmer Distribution Agreement”).
Under the terms of the Zimmer Distribution Agreement, we are responsible for all costs and expenses related to developing the Strip/Grid Products, the Electrode Cable Assembly Products, the sEEG Products and the OneRF Products (collectively the “Products”), and Zimmer is responsible for all costs and expenses related to the commercialization of the Products. In addition to the Zimmer Distribution Agreement, Zimmer and the Company have entered into a Manufacturing and Supply Agreement (the “MS Agreement”) and a supplier quality agreement (the “Quality Agreement”) with respect to the manufacturing and supply of the Products.
Except as otherwise provided in the Zimmer Distribution Agreement, we are responsible for performing all development activities, including non-clinical and clinical studies directed at obtaining regulatory approval of each Product. Zimmer has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to promote, market and sell each Product following the “Product Availability Date” (as defined in the Zimmer Distribution Agreement) for such Products.
The Zimmer Distribution Agreement will expire on September 30, 2034, unless terminated earlier pursuant to its terms. Either party may terminate the Zimmer Distribution Agreement (x) with written notice for the other party’s material breach following a cure period or (y) if the other party becomes subject to certain insolvency proceedings. In addition, Zimmer may terminate the Zimmer Distribution Agreement for any reason with 90 days’ written notice, and we may terminate the Zimmer Distribution Agreement if Zimmer acquires or directly or indirectly owns a controlling interest in certain competitors of the Company. Both Zimmer and the Company have agreed to indemnify the other party against certain losses and expenses relating to the development or commercialization of a product by the indemnifying party, the negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnifying party or its directors, officers, employees or agents or a breach of the indemnifying party’s representations, warranties or covenants.
We will investigate markets outside of the U.S. with the assistance of Zimmer and formulate a plan to enter those markets with the support of Zimmer.

Nasdaq
Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Notification
On May 6, 2025, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying that because the closing bid price of our common stock was below $1.00 per share for the prior 30 consecutive business days, we are not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we had a period of 180 calendar days, or until November 3, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
On November 4, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying us that we have been granted a 180-day extension, until May 4, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. We will continue to monitor the closing bid price of our common stock and seek to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement within the extension period. If we do not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement within the extension period, Nasdaq will provide written notification to us that our common stock will be subject to delisting, at which time we may appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearing Panel. There can be no assurance that, if we do need to appeal a Nasdaq delisting determination to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel, that such appeal would be successful.
Reimbursement
Coverage in the United States
Reimbursement from private third-party healthcare payors and, to a lesser extent, Medicare will be an important element of our success. Although the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) and third-party payors have adopted coverage policies for our targeted indications, there is no guarantee this will continue at the same levels or at all in the future. Current Procedural Terminology, or CPT, is a medical code set that is used to report medical, surgical and diagnostic procedures and services to entities such as physicians, health insurance companies and accreditation organizations.
Applicable diagnostic CPT codes for mapping (diagnosing) the brain for diagnostic procedures are as follows:
| ● | 61531 Subdural implantation of strip electrodes through one or more burr or trephine (saw) hole(s) for long term seizure monitoring; |
| ● | 61533 Craniotomy with elevation of bone flap: for subdural implantation of an electrode array, for long term seizure monitoring; |
| ● | 61535 Craniotomy with elevation of bone flap; for removal of epidural or subdural electrode array, without excision of cerebral tissue (separate procedure); and |
| ● | 61760 Stereotactic implantation of depth electro1des into the cerebrum for long term seizure monitoring. |
Regarding ICD-10 codes, the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Edition (ICD-10) is a clinical cataloging system that went into effect for the U.S. healthcare industry on October 1, 2015, after a series of lengthy delays. Accounting for modern advances in clinical treatment and medical devices, ICD-10 codes offer many more classification options compared to those found in its predecessor, ICD-9. Within the healthcare industry, providers, coders, IT professionals, insurance carriers, government agencies and others use ICD codes to properly note diseases on health records, to track epidemiological trends and to assist in medical reimbursement decisions.
ICD-10 codes for epilepsy are as follows:
| ● | G40.0 Localization-related (focal) (partial) idiopathic epilepsy and epileptic syndromes with seizures of localized onset; |
| ● | G40.1 Localization-related (focal) (partial) symptomatic epilepsy and epileptic syndromes with simple partial seizures; |
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
| ● | G40.2 Localization-related (focal) (partial) symptomatic epilepsy and epileptic syndromes with complex partial seizures; |
| ● | G40.3 Generalized idiopathic epilepsy and epileptic syndromes; |
| ● | G40.A Absence epileptic syndrome; |
| ● | G40.4 Other generalized epilepsy and epileptic syndromes; |
| ● | G40.50 Epileptic seizures related to external causes, not intractable; |
| ● | G40.80 Other epilepsy; and |
| ● | G40.82 Epileptic spasms. |
For our OneRF Ablation System, we use ICD-10-PCScode 00503Z4 Destruction of Brain Using Stereoelectroencephalographic Radiofrequency Ablation, Percutaneous Approach. This code allows hospital reporting of inpatient procedures that are performed using the OneRF Ablation system,
For our OneRF TN Ablation System, the following CPT Codes are available:
| ● | 61790 Creation of lesion by stereotactic method, percutaneous, by neurolytic agent (eg, alcohol, thermal, electrical, radiofrequency); gasserian ganglion |
| ● | 61791 Creation of lesion by sterotactic method, percutaneous, by neurolytic agent (eg, alcohol, thermal, electrical, radiofrequency); trigeminal medullary tract |
Medicare, Medicaid, health maintenance organizations and other third-party payors are increasingly attempting to contain healthcare costs by limiting both coverage and the level of reimbursement of new medical devices, and, as a result, their coverage policies may be restrictive, or they may not cover or provide adequate payment for our products. In order to obtain reimbursement arrangements, we may have to agree to a net sales price lower than the net sales price we might charge in other sales channels. Our revenue may be limited by the continuing efforts of government and third-party payors to contain or reduce the costs of healthcare through various increasingly sophisticated means, such as requiring prospective reimbursement and second opinions, purchasing in groups, or redesigning benefits. Our future dependence on the commercial success of our technologies makes us particularly susceptible to any cost containment or reduction efforts. Accordingly, if government and other third-party payors do not provide adequate coverage and reimbursement for our products and the related insertion and removal procedures, our financial performance will be negatively impacted.
Manufacturing, Supply and Quality Assurance
We currently outsource the supply and manufacture of all components of our prototypes of our technology under development. We plan to continue with an outsourced manufacturing arrangement for the foreseeable future. Our third-party manufacturers are recognized in their field for their competency to manufacture the respective portions of our system and have quality systems established that meet FDA requirements. We believe at this time the manufacturers we currently utilize have sufficient capacity to meet our requirements. We believe that as we increase our demand in the future, our per-unit costs will decrease materially.
As a medical device developer, the facilities of our sterilization and other critical suppliers are subject to periodic inspection by the FDA and corresponding state and foreign agencies. We believe that our quality systems and those of our suppliers are robust and achieve high product quality. We plan to audit our suppliers periodically to ensure conformity with the specifications, policies and procedures for our devices.
Research and Development
Our research and development team, which includes our Vice President of Engineering, utilizes advice from leading experts in the neurotech field on our scientific advisory board and is focused on the development of thin film cortical grid and strip electrodes and depth electrodes for recording, ablation and chronic stimulation for brain related disorders as well as stimulation for spinal cord stimulation for back related pain. Our research and development expenses were $5.0 million and $5.1 million for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Competition
Epilepsy
In the market for epilepsy diagnosis, our Evo Cortical and Evo sEEG compete with Ad-Tech Medical Instrument Corporation, PMT Corporation and Dixi Medical seizure diagnostic products. We will also compete against other companies in early stages of development of thin film technologies.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
In the neuro-ablation market, our OneRF Brain Ablation System competes with Medtronic, Monteris Medical and Clearpoint’s LITT technology, which use MRI guided laser surgical ablation for use to ablate, necrotize or coagulate soft tissue. There may be other products in development that will compete with us as well.
Trigeminal Neuralgia
In the market for treating trigeminal neuralgia, we expect to compete with Boston Scientific and Avanos RF ablation systems, and various companies that use balloon compression for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia.
BVNA
In BVNA, we expect to compete with Boston Scientific and Stryker’s BVNA Systems.
Spinal Cord Stimulation
In spinal cord stimulation, we expect to compete with Medtronic, Boston Scientific, Abbott, Globus, and Biotronik spinal cord stimulator leads and systems.
Drug Delivery
In Drug Delivery, we expect to compete primarily with Clearpoint and Sophysa’s (CED) drug delivery system.
Although we will face potential competition from many different sources, we believe that our technology, knowledge, experience and scientific resources will provide us with competitive advantages. For a discussion of the key competitive factors that we believe will impact the success of our cortical strip, grid electrodes under development, if successfully developed and approved, see “—Our Solution” above.
Many of the companies against which we compete have significantly greater financial resources and expertise in research and development, manufacturing, preclinical testing, conducting clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approvals and marketing approved products than we do. Mergers and acquisitions in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and diagnostic industries may result in even more resources being concentrated among a smaller number of our competitors. Smaller or early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large and established companies. These competitors also compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified scientific and management personnel and establishing clinical trial sites and subject registration for clinical trials, as well as in acquiring technologies complementary to, or necessary for, our development.
Intellectual Property
Protection of our intellectual property is a strategic priority for our business. We rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets as well as nondisclosure and assignment of invention agreements, material transfer agreements, confidentiality agreements and other measures to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights.
Patents
As of December 17, 2025, our patent estate consists of two issued United States patents licensed from WARF covering a neural probe array and thin-film micro electrode array and method, a U.S. patent issued in October 2022 relating to improved neural depth electrodes, a U.S. patent issued in January 2024 and a pending U.S. patent application relating to agent-delivering neural electrodes, a U.S. patent issued in January 2024 relating to minimally invasive electrodes, a U.S. patent issued in February 2024 and a European patent issued in October 2025 relating to spinal cord stimulation systems and devices, a U.S. patent issued in October 2025 and a pending European patent application published in 2022 relating to methods of making electrode probes, pending U.S. and European patent applications published in 2023 relating to devices having temperature sensors, pending U.S. and PCT patent applications published in 2024 relating to deformable spinal cord stimulation devices, three pending U.S. patent applications, a pending European application and two pending PCT applications filed or published in 2024 or 2025 relating to spinal cord stimulation device implantation methods, pending U.S. and European patent applications published in 2024 relating to ablation probe and temperature sensing device systems, and pending U.S. and PCT patent applications filed in 2025 relating to proximal connectors of probe devices and related manufacturing methods. The licensed issued patents expire between 2028 and 2030, subject to any patent extensions that may be available for such patents. The issued patents owned by NeuroOne expire between 2039 and 2041. If a patent or patents are issued on our additional pending patent applications, the resulting patents are projected to expire between 2040 and 2045.

FORM 10-K
Our patent applications may not result in issued patents, and any patents that have been issued or may issue in the future may not protect the commercially important aspects of our technology. Furthermore, the validity and enforceability of our issued patents may be challenged by third parties and our patents could be invalidated or modified by the issuing governmental authority. Third parties may independently develop technology that is not covered by our patents that is similar to, or competes with, our technology. In addition, our intellectual property may be infringed or misappropriated by third parties, particularly in foreign countries where the laws and governmental authorities may not protect our proprietary rights as effectively as those in the United States.
The medical device industry in general, and the recording, ablation and neurostimulation sector of this industry in particular, are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents and frequent litigation based on assertions of patent infringement. We are aware of numerous patents issued to third parties that may relate to the technology used in our business, including the design and manufacture of electrodes and pulse generators, as well as methods for device placement. Each of these patents contains multiple claims, any one of which may be independently asserted against us. The owners of these patents may assert that the manufacture, use, sale or offer for sale of our cortical strip and grid electrodes infringe one or more claims of their patents. Furthermore, there may be additional patents issued to third parties of which we are presently unaware that may relate to aspects of our technology that such third parties could assert against us and materially and adversely affect our business. In addition, because patent applications can take many years to issue, there may be patent applications that are currently pending and unknown to us, which may later result in issued patents that third parties could assert against us and materially and adversely affect our business.
Any adverse determination in litigations or post grant trial proceedings at the Patent Office relating to intellectual property to which we are or may become a party could subject us to significant liabilities to third parties or require us to seek licenses from third parties, and could result in the cancellation and/or invalidation of our intellectual property. Furthermore, if a court finds that we have willfully infringed a third party’s intellectual property, we could be required to pay treble damages and/or attorney fees for the prevailing party, in addition to other penalties. Although intellectual property disputes in the medical device area are often settled through licensing or similar arrangements, costs associated with such arrangements can be substantial and often require ongoing royalty payments. We may be unable to obtain necessary licenses on satisfactory terms, if at all. If we do not obtain necessary licenses, we may not be able to redesign our products to avoid infringement; if we are able to redesign our products to avoid infringement, we may not receive FDA approval in a timely manner. Adverse determinations in a judicial or administrative proceeding or failure to obtain necessary licenses could prevent us from manufacturing and selling our products, which could have a significant adverse impact on our business.
Trademarks
We have registered U.S. trademarks for the trademarks “NEUROONE,” “EVO,” and “OneRF.” We also have registered trademarks in the United Kingdom and the European Union for the trademark OneRF.
Trade Secrets
We also rely on trade secrets, technical know-how and continuing innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position. We seek to protect such intellectual property and proprietary information by generally requiring our employees, consultants, contractors, scientific collaborators and other advisors to execute non-disclosure and assignment of invention agreements upon the commencement of their employment or engagement as the case may be. Our agreements with our employees prohibit them from providing us with any intellectual property or proprietary information of third parties. We also generally require confidentiality agreements or material transfer agreements with third parties that receive or have access to our confidential information, data or other materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that our employees and third parties that have access to our confidential proprietary information will abide by the terms of their agreements. Despite the measures that we take to protect our intellectual property and confidential information, unauthorized third parties may copy aspects of our products or obtain and use our proprietary information.

Government Regulation (US)
Our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system and radiofrequency (RF) probes and RF generator ablation system are medical devices subject to extensive and ongoing regulation by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Regulations cover virtually every critical aspect of a medical device company’s business operations, including management responsibility, research activities, product design and development, quality management system, manufacturing, supplier management, risk management, contracting, reimbursement, medical communications, sales and marketing. In the United States, the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (“FDCA”), and the implementing regulations of the FDA (specifically, 21 Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR Parts 801- labeling, 803 - medical device reporting, 807 - registration and listing, subpart E premarket notification 510k, 812 - investigational device exemption, 814 - premarket approval and 820 - quality system regulation) and applicable FDA issued guidance’s and regulations govern product design and development, pre-clinical and clinical testing, premarket clearance or approval, risk management, electrical safety, cybersecurity, software, sterilization, biocompatibility, product manufacturing, quality systems, import and export, product labeling, product storage, recalls and field safety corrective actions, advertising and promotion, product sales and distribution, and post-market clinical surveillance. Our business is subject to federal, state, local and harmonized standards, such as ISO 13485, ISO 14971, and FDA’s Quality System Regulation (“QSR”) contained in 21 CFR Part 820.
Regulatory Framework in the United States
A product is regulated as a medical device by the FDA if: 1) the product meets the definition of a medical device per Section 201(h) of the FDCA and 2) an appropriate product classification exists.
Device classification
The FDA characterizes medical devices into one of three classes, Class I, II, and III based on risks and regulatory controls necessary to provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. Regulatory control increases from Class I to Class III. The device classification regulation defines the regulatory requirements for a general device type. Most Class I devices are exempt from Premarket Notification under 510(k); most Class II devices require Premarket Notification under 510(k); and most Class III devices require Premarket Approval (“PMA”).
Class I devices are subject to general controls including labeling. However, most such devices are exempt from pre-market notification. If a device is exempted from any of the general controls, such exemption is stated in the classification regulation for that device. If an exemption is stated it may pertain to manufacturers’ FDA registration and device listing, methods and documentation of the design, testing, production, control quality assurance, labeling, packaging, sterilization, storage, shipping of products and post market surveillance.
Class II devices are subject to the same general controls but may be subject to special controls such as device specific performance standards, post-market surveillance, FDA guidance, or particularized labeling, and may also require clinical testing prior to clearance.
Class III devices are those for which insufficient information exists to assure safety and effectiveness solely through general or special controls, including devices that support or sustain human life, are of substantial importance in preventing impairment of human health, present an unreasonable risk of illness or injury, or are not well established and generally accepted as safe and effective. Premarket Approval is required for most Class III devices, unless the device is a preamendments device and the FDA has not called for a PMA.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
Some Class I and Class II devices are exempted by regulation from the pre-market notification requirement under Section 510(k) of the FDCA, also referred to as a 510(k) clearance, but must meet the requirement of compliance with substantially all of the QSR. However, a PMA application is required for devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risk, such as life-sustaining, life-supporting or certain implantable devices, or those that are “not substantially equivalent” either to a device previously cleared through the 510(k) process or to a “preamendment” Class III device in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976 when PMA applications were not required. The PMA approval process is more comprehensive than the 510(k) clearance process and typically takes multiple years to complete.
Based on FDA classifications, our diagnostic cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system and RF probes and RF generator diagnostic/therapeutic ablation system technology are categorized by the FDA as Class II devices that do not require clinical testing and can be filed as a 510(k), similar to existing competitive technology under the same product classification/product code. The Company expects that indications for treating epilepsy, Parkinson’s and other patients suffering from motor related neurological deficiencies via a permanent implant for chronic treatment will require a PMA process to commercially distribute in the United States.
The 510(k) clearance process
Under the 510(k) clearance process, the manufacturer must submit to the FDA a premarket notification, demonstrating that the device is “substantially equivalent” to a legally marketed predicate device. A predicate device is a legally marketed device that was previously found to be substantially equivalent through the 510(k) process. To be “substantially equivalent,” the proposed device must have the same intended use, indications for use (product classification/code) as the predicate device, and either have the same technological characteristics as the predicate device or have different technological characteristics and not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness than the predicate device. Clinical data is sometimes required to support substantial equivalence.
Since October 1, 2023, a 510(k) premarket notification has been submitted as an electronic submission using the FDA eStar program through the CDRH Portal. The eStar Complete status needs to be observed for a successful submission. eSTAR submissions are not anticipated to undergo a refuse to accept (“RTA”) process. However, the FDA intends to employ a virus scanning and technical screening process for an eSTAR. If the eSTAR does not pass technical screening (i.e., an eSTAR is provided where none of the attachments to a question are relevant to the question, or if an inaccurate response is provided to any question), the submission may be put on an early Technical Screening hold for 180 days, until a complete replacement eSTAR is submitted. If it is accepted for filing, the FDA begins a substantive review. The FDA goal is to complete its review of a 510(k) notification within 90 calendar days of receiving the 510(k) notification. As a practical matter, clearance often takes longer, and clearance is never assured. Although many 510(k) premarket notifications are cleared without clinical data, the FDA may require further information, including clinical data, to make a determination regarding substantial equivalence, which may significantly prolong the review process. If the FDA agrees that the device is substantially equivalent, it will grant clearance to commercially market the device.
If the FDA determines that the device is not “substantially equivalent” to a predicate device, or if the device is automatically classified into Class III, the device sponsor must then fulfill the more rigorous premarketing requirements of the PMA approval process or seek reclassification of the device through the De Novo process. The De Novo request provides a marketing pathway to classify novel medical devices for which general controls alone, or general and special controls, provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness for the intended use, but for which there is no legally marketed predicate device. De Novo classification is a risk-based classification process. The De Novo classification process is an alternate pathway to classify medical devices that are automatically classified into Class III but which are low to moderate risk. A manufacturer can submit a Pre-submission for De Novo review if the manufacturer is unable to identify an appropriate predicate device and the new device or new use of the device presents a moderate or low risk.
After a device receives 510(k) clearance, any modification that could significantly affect its safety or effectiveness, or that would constitute a new or major change in its intended use, will require a new 510(k) clearance or, depending on the modification, could require a De Novo device application and potentially a PMA application. The FDA requires each manufacturer to determine whether the proposed change requires a new submission in the first instance, but the FDA can review any such decision and disagree with a manufacturer’s determination. Many minor modifications are accomplished by a letter-to-file in which the manufacture documents the change in an internal letter-to-file based on adherence to FDA guidance on changes to an existing 510(k) device. The letter-to-file is in lieu of submitting a new 510(k) to obtain clearance for such change. The FDA can always review these letters to file in an inspection. If the FDA disagrees with a manufacturer’s determination regarding whether a new premarket submission is required for the modification of an existing 510(k)-cleared device, the FDA can require the manufacturer to cease marketing and/or recall the modified device until 510(k) clearance is obtained. A De Novo grant or PMA application approval may also be affected if changes to the initial grant/approval are not evaluated and documented in accordance with FDA regulations. In addition, in these circumstances, the FDA can impose significant regulatory fines or penalties for failure to submit the requisite application(s).
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
The PMA approval process
Following receipt of a PMA application, the FDA conducts an administrative review to determine whether the application is sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review. If it is not, the agency will refuse to file the PMA. If it is, the FDA will accept the application for filing and begin its review. The FDA has 180 days to review a filed PMA application, although the review of an application more often occurs over a significantly longer period of time. During this review period, the FDA may request additional information or clarification of information already provided, and the FDA may issue a major deficiency letter to the applicant, requesting the applicant’s response to deficiencies communicated by the FDA.
Before approving or denying a PMA, an FDA advisory committee may review the PMA at a public meeting and provide the FDA with the committee’s recommendation on whether the FDA should approve the submission, approve it with specific conditions, or not approve it. The FDA is not bound by the recommendations of an advisory committee, but it considers such recommendations carefully when making decisions.
Prior to approval of a PMA, the FDA may conduct inspections of the clinical trial data and clinical trial sites, as well as inspections of the manufacturing facility and processes. Overall, the FDA review of a PMA application generally takes between one and three years but may take significantly longer. The FDA can delay, limit or deny approval of a PMA application for many reasons, including:
| ● | the device may not be safe, effective, reliable or accurate to the FDA’s satisfaction; |
| ● | the data from pre-clinical studies and clinical trials may be insufficient to support approval; |
| ● | the manufacturing process or facilities may not meet applicable requirements; and |
| ● | changes in FDA approval policies or adoption of new regulations may require additional data. |
If an FDA evaluation of a PMA application is favorable, the FDA will either issue an approval letter or an approvable letter, which usually contains a number of conditions that must be met in order to secure final approval of the PMA. When and if those conditions have been fulfilled to the satisfaction of the FDA, the agency will issue a PMA approval letter authorizing commercial marketing of a device, subject to the conditions of approval and the limitations established in the approval letter. If the FDA’s evaluation of a PMA application or manufacturing facilities is not favorable, the FDA will deny approval of the PMA or issue a not approvable letter. The FDA also may determine that additional tests or clinical trials are necessary, in which case the PMA approval may be delayed for several months or years while the trials are conducted and data is submitted in an amendment to the PMA under review. The PMA process can be expensive, uncertain and lengthy and a number of devices for which FDA approval has been sought by other companies have never been approved by the FDA for marketing.
New PMA applications or PMA supplements may be required for modifications to the manufacturing process, labeling, device specifications, materials or design of a device that has been approved through the PMA process. PMA supplements often require submission of the same type of information as was presented in the initial PMA application, except that the supplement is limited to information needed to support any changes from the device covered by the approved PMA application and may or may not require as extensive technical or clinical data or the convening of an advisory panel.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are typically required to support a PMA application and are sometimes required for a 510(k) clearance. These trials generally require submission of an application for an Investigational Device Exemption (“IDE”), to the FDA. The IDE application must be supported by appropriate data, such as animal and laboratory testing results, showing that it is safe to test the device in humans and that the testing protocol is scientifically sound. The IDE application must be approved in advance by the FDA for a specified number of patients, unless the product is deemed a non-significant risk device and eligible for abbreviated IDE requirements. Generally, clinical trials for a significant risk device may begin once the IDE application is approved by the FDA and the study protocol and informed consent are approved by appropriate institutional review boards at the clinical trial sites. The FDA’s approval of an IDE allows clinical testing to go forward, but it does not bind the FDA to accept the results of the trial as sufficient to prove the product’s safety and efficacy, even if the trial meets its intended success criteria. All clinical trials performed in the United States must be conducted in accordance with the FDA’s IDE regulations that govern investigational device labeling, prohibit promotion, and specify an array of recordkeeping, reporting and monitoring responsibilities of study sponsors and study investigators. Clinical trials must further comply with the FDA’s regulations for institutional review board approval and for informed consent and other human subject protections. Required records and reports are subject to inspection by the FDA. The results of clinical testing may be unfavorable or, even if the intended safety and efficacy success criteria are achieved, may not be considered sufficient for the FDA to grant approval or clearance of a product. Clinical trials must be entered into the clinical trials registry at clinicaltrials.gov.
The commencement or completion of any clinical trial may be delayed or halted, or be inadequate to support approval of a PMA application, for numerous reasons, including, but not limited to, the following:
| ● | the FDA or other regulatory authorities do not approve a clinical trial protocol or a clinical trial, or place a clinical trial on hold; |
| ● | patients do not enroll in clinical trials at the rate expected; |
| ● | patients, sponsor (NeuroOne) or study sites do not comply with trial protocols; |
| ● | patient follow-up is not at the rate expected; |
| ● | patients experience unanticipated adverse event; |
| ● | the data safety monitoring board determines the study should be placed on hold; |
| ● | patients die during a clinical trial, even though their death may not be related to the products that are part of our trial; |
| ● | institutional review boards and third-party clinical investigators may delay or reject the trial protocol; |
| ● | third-party clinical investigators decline to participate in a trial or do not perform a trial on the anticipated schedule or consistent with the clinical trial protocol, good clinical practices or other FDA requirements; |
| ● | the sponsor (NeuroOne) or third-party organizations do not perform data collection, monitoring and analysis in a timely or accurate manner or consistent with the clinical trial protocol or investigational or statistical plans; |
| ● | third-party clinical investigators have significant financial interests related to the sponsor (NeuroOne) or the study that the FDA deems to make the study results unreliable, or the Company or investigators fail to disclose such interests; |
| ● | regulatory inspections of our clinical trials or manufacturing facilities, which may, among other things, require us to undertake corrective action or suspend or terminate our clinical trials; |
| ● | changes in governmental regulations or administrative actions; |
| ● | the interim or final results of the clinical trial are inconclusive or unfavorable as to safety or efficacy; and |
| ● | the FDA concludes that our trial design is inadequate to demonstrate safety and efficacy. |

Other Regulatory Requirements
Even after a device receives clearance or approval and is placed in commercial distribution, numerous regulatory requirements apply. These include:
| ● | establishment registration and device listing; |
| ● | Quality System Regulation (QSR), which requires manufacturers, including third party manufacturers, to follow stringent design, testing, risk management, production control, supplier/contractor selection, complaint handling, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during all aspects of the manufacturing process; |
| ● | labeling regulations that prohibit the promotion of products for uncleared, unapproved or “off-label” uses, and impose other restrictions on labeling, advertising and promotion; |
| ● | Medical Device Reporting (MDR) regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA if their device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur; |
| ● | voluntary and mandatory device recalls to address problems when a device is mislabeled or does not meet specifications and could be a risk to health; and |
| ● | corrections and removals reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA field corrections and product recalls or removals if undertaken to reduce a risk to health posed by the device or to remedy a violation of the FDCA that may present a risk to health. |
Also, the FDA may require us to conduct post-market surveillance studies or establish and maintain a system for tracking our products through the chain of distribution to the patient level. The FDA enforces regulatory requirements by conducting periodic, unannounced inspections and market surveillance. Inspections may include the manufacturing facilities of our subcontractors.
Failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in enforcement actions by the FDA and other regulatory agencies. These may include any of the following sanctions or consequences:
| ● | warning letters or untitled letters that require corrective action; |
| ● | fines and civil penalties; |
| ● | unanticipated expenditures; |
| ● | delays in approving or refusal to approve future products; |
| ● | FDA refusal to issue certificates to foreign governments needed to export products for sale in other countries; |
| ● | suspension or withdrawal of FDA clearance or approval; |
| ● | product recall or seizure; interruption of production; |
| ● | operating restrictions; |
| ● | injunctions; and |
| ● | criminal prosecution. |
Our contract manufacturers, specification developers and some suppliers of components or device accessories, also are required to manufacture our products in compliance with current good manufacturing practice requirements set forth in the QSR. The QSR requires a quality system for the design, risk management, manufacture, packaging, labeling, storage, installation and servicing of marketed devices, and it includes extensive requirements with respect to quality management and organization, device design, buildings, equipment, purchase and handling of components or services, production and process controls, packaging and labeling controls, device evaluation, distribution, installation, complaint handling, servicing, and record keeping. The FDA evaluates compliance with the QSR through periodic unannounced inspections that may include the manufacturing facilities of our subcontractors. If the FDA believes that any of our contract manufacturers or regulated suppliers are not in compliance with these requirements, it can shut down such manufacturing operations, require a recall of our products, refuse to approve new marketing applications, institute legal proceedings to detain or seize products, enjoin future violations or assess civil and criminal penalties against us or our officers or other employees.

State Fraud and Abuse Provisions
Many states have also adopted some form of anti-kickback and anti-referral laws and a false claims act. We believe that we are in conformance to such laws. Nevertheless, a determination of liability under such laws could result in fines and penalties and restrictions on our ability to operate in these jurisdictions.
Physician Payment Sunshine Act
Transparency laws regarding payments or other items of value provided to healthcare providers and teaching hospitals may also impact our business practices. The federal Physician Payment Sunshine Act requires most medical device manufacturers to report annually to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) financial arrangements, payments, or other transfers of value made by that entity to physicians and teaching hospitals.
The payment information is made publicly available in a searchable format on the Open Payments database. In the coming years, we will invest significant resources to develop and maintain robust systems and processes that enhance compliance with these regulations. Failure to comply with the reporting requirements can result in significant monetary penalties. Similar laws may have been enacted or are under consideration in foreign jurisdictions.
Human Capital
As of September 30, 2025, we had 18 employees, all of whom are full-time, eight of whom are engaged in research and development activities, and all of whom are located in the United States. As of September 30, 2025, we also retained the services of approximately 8 regular consultants. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We consider our relationship with our employees to be good.

Risks Related to Our Business
We have incurred significant operating losses since inception and cannot assure you that we will ever achieve or sustain profitability.
We have incurred losses since inception, and as of September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $78.6 million primarily as a result of expenses incurred in connection with our operations and from our research and development programs. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating costs resulting in net losses for the foreseeable future, and management has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. There was also substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as of and for the year ended September 30, 2025. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through debt and equity financings, and our primary activities have been limited to, and our limited resources have been dedicated to, performing business and financial planning, raising capital, recruiting personnel, negotiating with business partners and the licensors of our intellectual property and conducting development activities.
To implement our business strategy we need to, among other things, continue to develop all-in-one diagnostic and therapeutic solution, gain approval for other brain or motor related disorders such as Parkinson’s with the therapeutic technologies developed for epilepsy, convince physicians and patients that our technology represents an improvement over existing diagnostic or treatment options, hire direct experienced sales representatives to market our technology, and engage in beneficial partnerships that can leverage our core technology. We have never been profitable and do not expect to be profitable in the foreseeable future. We expect our expenses to increase significantly as we pursue our objectives. The extent of our future operating losses and the timing of profitability are highly uncertain, and we expect to continue incurring significant expenses and operating losses over the next several years. Our prior losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our stockholders’ equity and working capital. Any additional operating losses may have an adverse effect on our stockholders’ equity, and we cannot assure you that we will ever be able to achieve profitability. Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our failure to become and remain profitable would depress the value of our Company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, maintain our development efforts, obtain regulatory approvals or continue our operations.

We have a limited operating history, making it difficult for you to evaluate our business and your investment.
We are an early-stage medical technology company which continues to develop and commercialize comprehensive neuromodulation sEEG monitoring, ablation, and stimulation solutions to diagnose and treat patients with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic back pain and other related neurological disorders. Our operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including but not limited to the absence of an operating history, lack of fully-developed or commercialized products, insufficient capital, expected substantial and continual losses for the foreseeable future, limited experience in dealing with regulatory issues, lack of manufacturing and marketing experience, need to rely on third parties for the development and commercialization of our proposed products, a competitive environment characterized by well-established and well-capitalized competitors and reliance on key personnel.
From our inception through September 30, 2025, we have generated limited revenue from the commercial sales of our products. Because we have generated limited revenues from commercialization, our operations to date have been principally financed through public and private offerings of our Common Stock and convertible debt and exercises of options and warrants.
Investors are subject to all the risks incident to the creation and development of a new business and each investor should be prepared to withstand a complete loss of his, her or its investment. Furthermore, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. However, the factors included above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Our Company has limited experience in medical device development and may not be able to successfully develop any device or therapy. Our ability to become profitable depends primarily on: our ability to further develop our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, our successful completion of all necessary pre-clinical testing and clinical trials on such technology, our ability to obtain clearance or approval for such technology and successfully commercialize such technology, our ongoing research and development efforts, the timing and cost of clinical trials, our ability to identify personnel with the necessary skill sets or enter into favorable alliances with third-parties who can provide substantial capabilities in clinical development, regulatory affairs, sales, marketing and distribution and our ability to obtain and maintain necessary intellectual property rights to such technology. Our limited experience in medical device development may make it more difficult for us to complete these tasks.
Even if we successfully develop and market such technology, we may not generate sufficient or sustainable revenue to achieve or sustain profitability, which could cause us to cease operations and cause you to lose all of your investment.
Zimmer has exclusive global rights to distribute our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System in the brain. We are reliant on Zimmer to drive the commercialization and sales of these products. Zimmer’s failure to timely develop or commercialize these products, or to achieve certain milestones, would have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.
The Company granted Zimmer an exclusive global right to distribute our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System in the brain. We are reliant on Zimmer to drive the commercialization and sales of these products until 2034 under the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement for the exclusive distribution, marketing and sales license provided to Zimmer. The collaboration with Zimmer may not be successful due to several factors, including the following:
| ● | Zimmer may not be able to obtain from us or manufacture our products in a timely or cost-effective manner; |
| ● | Zimmer may not timely perform its obligations under the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement or to achieve certain net sales milestones; |
| ● | Zimmer may fail to effectively commercialize our products; or |
| ● | contractual disputes or other disagreements between us and Zimmer, including those regarding the development, manufacture, and commercialization of our products, interpretation of the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement, and ownership of proprietary rights. |
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
Any of the foregoing could adversely impact the likelihood and timing of any payments we are eligible to receive under the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement. If Zimmer does not perform its obligations under the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement, sales would be substantially delayed and could result in a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and prospects and would likely cause our stock price to decline.
Our ability to continue our operations requires that we raise additional capital and our operations could be curtailed if we are unable to obtain the additional funding as or when needed.
Our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in the report on our financial statements as of and for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, noting the existence of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since inception, negative cash flows from operations, and an accumulated deficit of $78.6 million as of September 30, 2025. To date, the Company’s revenues have not been sufficient to cover its full operating costs, and as such, it has been dependent on funding operations through the issuance of debt and sale of equity securities. At September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents in the aggregate of approximately $6.6 million. Our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses. To continue to fund operations, we will need to secure additional funding. We may obtain additional financing in the future through the issuance of our Common Stock, through other equity or debt financings or through collaborations or partnerships with other companies. We may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
We may be adversely affected by the effects of inflation.
Inflation has the potential to adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial position and liquidity by increasing our overall cost structure, particularly if we are unable to achieve commensurate increases in the prices we charge our customers. The existence of inflation in the economy has the potential to result in higher interest rates and capital costs, supply shortages, increased costs of labor and other similar effects. As a result of inflation, we may experience increases in the costs of labor, materials, and other inputs, such as engineering consultants. Although we may take measures to mitigate the impact of this inflation, if these measures are not effective our business, results of operations, financial position and liquidity could be materially adversely affected. Even if such measures are effective, there could be a difference between the timing of when these beneficial actions impact our results of operations and when the cost inflation is incurred.
We will need to raise substantial additional funds in the future, and these funds may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. A failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed could force us to delay, limit, scale back or cease some or all operations.
The continued growth of our business, including the development, regulatory approval and commercialization of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, will significantly increase our expenses going forward. As a result, we will be required to seek substantial additional funds in the future. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
| ● | the cost of further developing our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology; |
| ● | obtaining and maintaining regulatory clearance or approval for our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology; |
| ● | the costs associated with commercializing our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology; |
| ● | any change in our development priorities; |
| ● | the revenue generated by sales of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology; |
| ● | the costs associated with expanding our sales and marketing infrastructure for commercialization of our cortical strip grid electrode and depth electrode technology; |
| ● | any change in our plans regarding the manner in which we choose to commercialize any approved product in the United States; |
| ● | the cost of ongoing compliance with regulatory requirements; |
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
| ● | expenses we incur in connection with potential litigation or governmental investigations; |
| ● | expenses and costs we incur in connection with changes in the economy and regulatory process; |
| ● | the costs to develop additional intellectual property; |
| ● | anticipated or unanticipated capital expenditures; and |
| ● | unanticipated general and administrative expenses. |
As a result of these and other factors, we do not know whether and the extent to which we may be required to raise additional capital. We may in the future seek additional capital from public or private offerings of our capital stock, borrowings under credit lines or other sources.
We may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Any failure to raise additional capital could compromise our ability to execute on our business plan, and we may be forced to liquidate our assets. In such a scenario, the values we receive for our assets in liquidation or dissolution could be significantly lower than the values reflected in our financial statements.
If we issue additional equity or debt securities to raise additional funds, our existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity or debt securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. In addition, if we raise additional funds through collaborations, licensing, joint ventures, strategic alliances, partnership arrangements or other similar arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our potential future products or proprietary technologies or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.
An inability to obtain a supply of components and raw material products could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Supply of components and raw material products are generally available in quantities to meet the needs of the Company’s business. We are dependent on third-party manufacturers for the medical products that develops. An inability to obtain such components and raw material products could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We depend on a limited number of third-party suppliers for the components of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, and the loss of any of these suppliers, or their inability to provide us with an adequate supply of materials, could harm our business.
We rely on third-party suppliers to supply and manufacture the components of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. For our business strategy to be successful, our suppliers must be able to provide us with components in sufficient quantities, in compliance with regulatory requirements and quality control standards, in accordance with agreed upon specifications, at acceptable costs and on a timely basis. Future increases in sales of our cortical strip and sheet electrode technology, if approved, whether expected or unanticipated, could strain the ability of our suppliers to deliver an increasingly large supply of components and our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology in a manner that meets these various requirements.
Production of therapeutic products may require raw materials for which the sources and amount of supply are limited, or may be hindered by quality or scheduling issues in respect of the third party suppliers over which the Company has limited control. An inability to obtain adequate supplies of raw materials could significantly delay the development, regulatory approval and sales and marketing of a product.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
We use a small number of suppliers of components for our products. Depending on a limited number of suppliers exposes us to risks, including limited control over pricing, availability, quality and delivery schedules. We may not have long term supply agreements with our suppliers and, in many cases, we may make our purchases on a purchase order basis. Our ability to purchase adequate quantities of components or our products may be limited and we may not be able to convince suppliers to make components and products available to us. Additionally, our suppliers may encounter problems that limit their ability to supply components or manufacture products for us, including financial difficulties, damage to their manufacturing equipment or facilities, product discontinuations, or complications due to worldwide economic and social instability. As a result, there is a risk that certain components could be discontinued and no longer available to us. We may be required to make significant “last time” purchases of component inventory that is being discontinued by the supplier to ensure supply continuity. If we fail to obtain sufficient quantities of high quality components to meet demand for our products in a timely manner or on terms acceptable to us, we would have to seek alternative sources of supply. Because of factors such as the proprietary nature of our products, our quality control standards and regulatory requirements, we may not be able to quickly engage additional or replacement suppliers for some of our critical components. Failure of any supplier to deliver components at the level our business requires could disrupt the manufacturing of our products and, if approved, limit our ability to meet our sales commitments, which could harm our reputation and adversely affect our business.
We may not procure volumes sufficient to receive favorable pricing, which could impact our gross margins if we are unable to pass along price differences to our customers. Recent global economic cost inflation trends could unfavorably impact pricing from our suppliers.
Furthermore, vandalism, terrorism or a natural or other disaster, such as an earthquake, fire or flood, could damage or destroy equipment, our inventory of component supplies or finished products, cause substantial delays in development or our operations, result in the loss of key information, and cause us to incur additional expenses. We maintain liability insurance and property casualty insurance, but it may not be adequate to fully cover our losses in any particular case. In addition, regardless of the level of insurance coverage, damage to our or our suppliers’ facilities could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
We may also have difficulty obtaining similar components from other suppliers that are acceptable to the FDA or other regulatory agencies, and the failure of any supplier to comply with strictly enforced regulatory requirements could expose us to regulatory action including warning letters, product recalls, and termination of distribution, product seizures or civil penalties. It could also require us to cease using the components, seek alternative components or technologies and modify our products to incorporate alternative components or technologies, which could result in a requirement to seek additional regulatory approvals. Any disruption of this nature or increased expenses could harm our development, approval or commercialization efforts and adversely affect our operating results.
Changes in the configuration of our technology under development may result in additional costs or delay.
As new products are developed through pre-clinical testing and clinical trials towards approval and commercialization, it is common that various aspects of the development program, such as manufacturing methods and configuration, are altered along the way in an effort to optimize processes and results. Any changes we make carry the risk that they will not achieve the intended objectives. Any of these changes could cause our products to perform differently and affect the results of planned clinical trials or other future clinical trials conducted with the altered device. Such changes may also require additional testing, regulatory notification or regulatory approval. This could delay completion of pre-clinical testing or clinical trials, increase costs, delay approval of our future products and jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenue.
We have four products which have each received 510(k) clearance from the FDA. If we are unable to successfully develop and receive regulatory clearance/approval for our other products under development, or if we experience significant delays in doing so, our business will be harmed.
Four of our products have received 510(k) clearance from the FDA: our Evo® Cortical, Evo® sEEG, OneRF® Ablation System, and OneRF® TN Ablation System. None of our other products have received clearance or approval for commercial sale. Our ability to generate revenue from our developed products, if any, will depend heavily on their successful development and regulatory approval for commercialization.
For our current products under development clinical studies in humans may be required, clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or more clinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. Further, the outcomes of completed clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim results of a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Clinical data is often susceptible to varying interpretations and analyses, and many companies that have believed their products performed satisfactorily in clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing clearance or approval. We have limited resources to complete the expensive process of medical device development, pre-clinical testing and clinical trials, putting us at a disadvantage, particularly compared to some of our larger and established competitors, and we may not have sufficient resources to commercialize our products under development in a timely fashion, if ever.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
We may experience numerous unforeseen events during or as a result of clinical trials that could delay or prevent our ability to receive marketing approval or commercialize our products, including:
| ● | regulators may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospective trial site; |
| ● | the failure to successfully complete pre-clinical testing requirements required by the FDA; |
| ● | we may experience delays in reaching, or fail to reach, agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts with third parties or clinical trial protocols with prospective trial sites, the terms of which can be subject to extensive negotiation and may vary significantly among different trial sites; |
| ● | clinical trials of our technology under development may produce negative or inconclusive results, including failure to demonstrate statistical significance, and we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon our development programs; |
| ● | the number of people with brain or central nervous system related disorders required for clinical trials may be larger than we anticipate, enrollment in these clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or people may drop out of these clinical trials or fail to return for post-treatment follow-up at a higher rate than we anticipate; |
| ● | our products may have unanticipated adverse events, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics, causing us or our investigators, regulators or institutional review boards to suspend or terminate the trials; |
| ● | our third-party contractors conducting the clinical trials may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us in a timely manner, or at all; |
| ● | regulators may require that we or our investigators suspend or terminate clinical development for various reasons, including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or a finding that the participants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks; |
| ● | the cost of clinical trials of our products may be greater than we anticipate; |
| ● | the supply or quality of our products or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of our products may be insufficient or inadequate; and |
| ● | delays from our suppliers and manufacturers could impact clinical trial completion and impact revenue. |
If we are required to conduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and/or RF generator ablation system technology under development beyond those that we contemplate, if we are unable to successfully complete clinical trials, if the results of these trials or tests are not favorable or if there are safety concerns, we may:
| ● | not obtain marketing approval at all; |

| ● | have our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system and RF probes and RF generator ablation systems removed from the market after obtaining marketing clearance/approval. |
Our development costs will also increase if we experience delays in testing or marketing clearance/approvals. We do not know whether any of our clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all. Significant clinical trial delays also could allow our competitors to bring innovative products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize our products.

Even if we obtain regulatory clearance and/or approval for all of our products, we will remain subject to extensive regulatory scrutiny and compliance obligations.
Both before and after a product is commercially released, we will have ongoing responsibilities under FDA regulations. We will also be subject to periodic inspections by the FDA and comparable foreign authorities to determine compliance with regulatory requirements, such as the QSR, of the FDA, medical device reporting regulations and regulations regarding notification, corrections, and recalls. These inspections can result in observations or reports, warning letters or other similar notices or forms of enforcement action. If the FDA concludes that we are not in compliance with applicable laws or regulations, or that any of our products are ineffective or pose an unreasonable health risk, it could ban these products, suspend or cancel our marketing authorizations, impose “stop-sale” and “stop-import” orders, detain or seize adulterated or misbranded products, order a recall, repair, replacement, correction or refund of such products, or require us to notify health providers and others that the products present unreasonable risks of substantial harm to the public health. Discovery of previously unknown problems with our product’s design or manufacture may result in restrictions on use, restrictions placed on us or our suppliers, or withdrawal of an existing regulatory clearance. The FDA may also impose operating restrictions, enjoin and restrain certain violations of applicable law pertaining to medical devices, assess civil or criminal penalties against our officers, employees or us, or recommend criminal prosecution of our Company. Adverse regulatory action may restrict us from effectively marketing and selling our products. In addition, negative publicity and product liability claims resulting from any adverse regulatory action could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.
In addition, even though we have obtained FDA clearance to market four of our products, and even if we obtain the proper regulatory approval or clearance to market any additional products under development, the FDA has the power to require us to conduct post-market surveillance studies, which are designed to identify adverse events, device malfunctions or complaints from patients implanted with the device during a specified period after the commencement of commercial use in the U.S. The FDA may also require us to conduct post-approval studies to further monitor the safety and/or effectiveness of our products. Failure to conduct required surveillance or studies in a timely manner could result in the revocation of the approved PMA product that is subject to such a requirement and could also result in the recall or withdrawal of the product, which would prevent us from generating sales from that product in the United States.
Potential complications from our technologies that are currently unknown may come to light.
Based on our industry experience and the experience of the physicians that use products similar to our cortical strip /grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and RF generator ablation system technology may result in the following complications:
| ● | from use of our cortical strip/grid electrode and depth electrode technology |
post-operative hemorrhage, infection, brain inflammation, brain tissue necrosis, inability to accurately localize the epileptogenic focus (the area of the cerebral cortex responsible for causing epileptic seizures), neurologic deficit (abnormal function of a body area due to weaker function of the brain, spinal cord, muscles or nerves, such as abnormal reflexes, inability to speak and decreased sensation) and extra axial fluid collections (fluid that occurs in the brain after surgery).
| ● | from use of our RF probes and RF generator ablation technology |
temporary motor deficit, post-operative pain, skin burns hemorrhage, infection.
for Trigeminal nerve ablation, masseter weakness, paresthesias, diplopia, keratitis, corneal reflex impairment, anesthesia dolorosa, and vasomotor rhinorrhea.
If these or unanticipated complications or side-effects result from the use of our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and RF generator ablation system technology, our product development may be delayed, we may not be able to obtain regulatory clearance or approval for certain products, we could be subject to liability and, even for cleared/approved products, our technology would not be widely adopted. We cannot assure you that use, even for a limited time, would not result in unanticipated complications, even after the device is removed.

Undetected errors or defects in our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and RF generator ablation system technologies under development or future versions thereof could harm our reputation, decrease the market acceptance of cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and RF generator ablation system technology or expose us to product liability claims adversely affecting our financial condition and results of operations or liquidity.
Our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and RF generator ablation system technologies may contain undetected errors or defects. As a result, we may be subject to warranty and liability claims for damages related to errors or defects in such products. A material liability claim or other occurrence that harms our reputation or decreases market acceptance of our cortical strip/grid electrode and depth electrode technology could harm our business and operating results. This risk exists even if a device is cleared or approved for commercial sale and manufactured in facilities licensed and regulated by the FDA or an applicable foreign regulatory authority. Our products are designed to affect, and any future products will be designed to affect, important bodily functions and processes. Any side effects, manufacturing defects, misuse or abuse associated with our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and RF generator ablation system technology or future versions thereof could result in patient injury or death. The medical device industry has historically been subject to extensive litigation over product liability claims, and we cannot offer any assurance that we will not face product liability lawsuits. Our clinical and commercial product liability insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover claims that may be made against us. In addition, we may not be able to maintain insurance coverage at a reasonable cost, or in sufficient amounts or scope, to protect us against losses. Any claims against us, regardless of their merit, could severely harm our financial condition, strain our management team and other resources, and adversely impact or eliminate the prospects for commercialization of the product candidate, or sale of the product, which that is the subject of any such claim.
The sale and use of our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and RF generator ablation system technology or future versions thereof could lead to the filing of product liability claims if someone were to allege that our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and RF generator ablation system technology or one of our products contained a design or manufacturing defect. A product liability claim could result in substantial damages and be costly and time consuming to defend, either of which could materially harm our business or financial condition. Product liability claims may be brought against us by patients, healthcare providers or others selling or otherwise coming into contact with our products, among others. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we will incur substantial liabilities and reputational harm. In addition, regardless of merit or eventual outcome, product liability claims may result in:
| ● | litigation; |
| ● | distraction of management’s attention from our primary business; |
| ● | the inability to commercialize our cortical strip/grid electrode system, depth electrode system, RF probes and/or RF generator ablation system technology; |

| ● | product recalls or withdrawals from the market; |
| ● | withdrawal of clinical trial participants; |
| ● | substantial monetary awards or settlements to patients or other claimants; or |
| ● | loss of revenue. |
Product liability lawsuits and claims, safety alerts or product recalls, with or without merit, could cause us to incur substantial costs, delay our product development efforts, place a significant strain on our financial resources, divert the attention of management from our core business, harm our reputation, increase our product liability insurance rates, once we obtain such insurance, or prevent us from securing such insurance coverage in the future and adversely affect our ability to attract and retain customers, if approved, any of which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

We currently maintain commercial product liability insurance with an aggregate limit of $5,000,000. We cannot be assured that such insurance would adequately protect our assets from the financial impact of defending a product liability claim because these policies typically have substantial deductibles. Product liability claims in excess of applicable insurance coverage would negatively impact our business, financial condition and operating results. Insurance coverage varies in cost and can be difficult to obtain, and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain insurance coverage in the future on terms acceptable to us or at all.
We may not be successful in commercializing our technology.
We anticipate that we will derive nearly all of our revenue from the sales of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology or future versions thereof.
Moreover, we expect the revenue opportunity for additional uses of our technology to be greater than the technology and uses that have currently been cleared by the FDA, and so we believe our ability to generate significant revenue in the future will be dependent upon the receipt of additional FDA clearances.
Our revenue will be dependent, in part, upon the size of the markets in which we gain regulatory approval, the accepted price for the product, the ability to obtain coverage and reimbursement, and whether we own the commercial rights for that territory. If the number of people we target is not as significant as we estimate or the treatment population is narrowed by competition, physician choice or treatment guidelines, we may not generate significant revenue from sales of such products, even if approved.
The success of any products that we develop will depend on several factors, including:
| ● | receipt of timely commercialization approvals from applicable regulatory authorities; |
| ● | our ability to procure and maintain suppliers and manufacturers of the components of our current cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and future versions; |
| ● | market acceptance of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology by people with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders, the medical community and third-party payors; |
| ● | our success in educating healthcare providers and people with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders about the benefits, administration and use of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and future versions; |
| ● | the perceived advantages, cost, safety, convenience and accuracy of alternative therapies; |
| ● | obtaining and maintaining patent, trademark and trade secret protection and regulatory exclusivity for our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and otherwise protecting our rights in our intellectual property portfolio; |
| ● | maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements, including current good manufacturing practices; and |
| ● | obtaining and maintaining a continued acceptable performance and safety profile of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. |
The continuing development and commercialization of our products depends upon us maintaining strong relationships with academic and healthcare institutions and professionals.
If we fail to maintain our strong working relationships with healthcare and academic institutions and their professionals, many of our products may not be developed and marketed in line with the needs and expectations of the professionals who use and support our products, which could cause a decline in our earnings and profitability. The development, marketing and sales of many of our products depends on our maintaining working relationships with healthcare institutions and professionals. We rely on these professionals to provide us with considerable knowledge and experience regarding the development, marketing and sale of our products. If we are unable to maintain strong relationships with these institutions and professionals, the development and marketing of our products could suffer, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

Our success depends on our ability to continue to develop, commercialize and gain market acceptance for our products and technology.
Our current business strategy is highly dependent on developing and commercially launching our products and technology and achieving and maintaining market acceptance. In order for us to sell cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology to people with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders, we must convince them, their caregivers and healthcare providers that our technology offers meaningful advantages over existing solutions for neuromodulation, cEEG and sEEG recording, ablation, and stimulation. Key challenges include overcoming physician preference for established competitive products and demonstrating superior clinical outcomes. Several factors could negatively impact market acceptance, including: failure to gain support from key opinion leaders, insufficient clinical evidence supporting our technology’s benefits, perceived risks associated with the technology, introduction of competitive products, adverse clinical trial results, loss of regulatory approvals, or adverse publicity. Healthcare providers typically adopt new technologies slowly due to liability concerns and reimbursement uncertainties.
In addition, people with such medical conditions, their caregivers or healthcare providers may perceive our products and technology to be more complicated or less effective than current technology, and people may be unwilling to change their current regimens. Moreover, we believe that healthcare providers tend to be slow to change their medical treatment practices because of perceived liability risks arising from the use of new products and the uncertainty of third-party reimbursement. Accordingly, healthcare providers may not recommend our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology until, if ever, there is sufficient evidence to convince them to alter the treatment methods they typically recommend, such as receiving recommendations from prominent healthcare providers or other key opinion leaders in the community.
If we fail to convince patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers of our technology’s benefits or cannot achieve widespread market acceptance, our sales potential and strategic objectives would be compromised, adversely affecting our business, financial condition, and operating results.
Failure to secure or retain coverage or adequate reimbursement for our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology or future versions thereof, including the implantation procedures, by third-party payors could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.
We plan to derive nearly all of our revenue from sales of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, in the United States and expect to do so for the next several years. We anticipate a substantial portion of the purchase price of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology will be paid for by third-party payors, including private insurance companies, preferred provider organizations and other managed care providers. Patients who receive treatment for their medical conditions and their healthcare providers generally rely on third-party payors to reimburse all or part of the costs associated with their medical treatment, including healthcare providers’ services. Coverage and adequate reimbursement from third-party payors, including governmental healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, and commercial payors, is critical to new product acceptance. Future sales of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology will be limited unless people with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders can rely on third-party payors to pay for all or part of the cost to purchase our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Access to adequate coverage and reimbursement for our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology by third-party payors is essential to the acceptance of our products by people with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders.
In the United States, a third-party payor’s decision to provide coverage for our products does not imply that an adequate reimbursement rate will be obtained. Further, one third-party payor’s decision to cover our products does not assure that other payors will also provide coverage for the products or will provide coverage at an adequate reimbursement rate. Healthcare providers may choose not to order a product unless third-party payors pay a substantial portion of the product. Within and outside the United States, reimbursement is obtained from a variety of sources, including government-sponsored and private health insurance plans. These third-party payors determine whether to provide coverage and reimbursement for specific products and procedures. Coverage determinations and reimbursement levels of both our products and the healthcare provider’s performance of the insertion and removal procedures are critical to the commercial success of our product, and if we are not able to secure positive coverage determinations and reimbursement levels for our products or the insertion and removal procedures, our business would be materially adversely affected.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
In addition, there may be significant delays in obtaining reimbursement, and coverage may be more limited than the purposes for which the product is cleared by the FDA or other foreign regulatory authorities. Moreover, eligibility for reimbursement does not imply that any product will be paid for in all cases or at a rate that covers our costs, including research, development, manufacture, sale and distribution. Payment rates may vary according to the use of the product and the clinical setting in which it is used, may be based on payments allowed for lower cost products that are already reimbursed, and may be incorporated into existing payments for other services. Net prices for products may be reduced by mandatory discounts or rebates required by government healthcare programs or third-party payors and by any future relaxation of laws that presently restrict imports of products from countries where they may be sold at lower prices than in the United States.
Because there is generally no separate reimbursement for medical devices and other supplies used in such procedures, including our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, and because we believe that our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, if approved, would be adequately described by existing DRG and ICD-9 codes for epilepsy surgery, some of our target customers may be unwilling to adopt our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology over more established or lower cost therapeutic alternatives already available or subsequently become available. Further, any decline in the amount payors are willing to reimburse our customers for procedures using our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology could make it difficult for new customers to adopt our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and could create additional pricing pressure for us, which could adversely affect our ability to invest in and grow our business.
Third-party payors, whether governmental or commercial, are developing increasingly sophisticated methods of controlling healthcare costs. In addition, in the United States, no uniform policy of coverage and reimbursement for medical device products and services exists among third-party payors. Therefore, coverage and reimbursement for medical device products and services can differ significantly from payor to payor. In addition, payors continually review new technologies for possible coverage and can, without notice, deny coverage for these new products and procedures. As a result, the coverage determination process is often a time-consuming and costly process that will require us to provide scientific and clinical support for the use of our products to each payor separately, with no assurance that coverage and adequate reimbursement will be obtained, or maintained if obtained.
If sufficient coverage and reimbursement is not available for our any product we develop, in the United States, the demand for our products and our revenues will be adversely affected.
Reimbursement by Medicare is highly regulated and subject to change.
Medicare program is administered by CMS, which imposes extensive and detailed requirements on medical services providers, including, but not limited to, rules that govern how we structure our relationships with physicians, and how and where we provide our solutions. Our failure to comply with applicable Medicare rules could result in discontinuing the ability for physicians to receive reimbursement as they will likely utilize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology under the Medicare payment program, civil monetary penalties, and/or criminal penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and revenues.

If our competitors are better able to develop and market products for the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders that are safer, more effective, less costly, easier to use or otherwise more attractive than our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, our business will be adversely impacted.
The medical device industry is highly competitive and subject to technological change. Our success depends, in part, upon our ability to establish a competitive position in the market for the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders by securing broad market acceptance of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Any product we develop that achieves regulatory clearance or approval will have to compete for market acceptance and market share. We believe that the primary competitive factors of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology will be: reduced infections, ability to record additional brain activity, minimally invasive surgical procedure, ease of use and cost effectiveness. We face significant competition in the United States and internationally, which we believe will intensify. For example, our major competitors are: (i) in the market for diagnosis, Ad-Tech Medical Instrument Corporation, PMT Corporation and Dixi Medical, (ii) in the market for neuro-ablation, Medtronic and Monteris Medical and (iii) in the market for trigeminal neuralgia, Boston Scientific and Avanos RF ablation systems. Each of the foregoing competitors has systems approved in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions and has been established for several years. We face a particular challenge overcoming the long-standing practices by some physicians of using the existing technology of our larger, more established competitors. Physicians may be reluctant to try new products from a source with which they are less familiar. If these physicians do not try to subsequently adopt our product, then we may never achieve profitability and such failure to adopt our product could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.
In addition to facing competition from major competitors and potentially our development partner, we may also face competition from other emerging competitors or smaller companies with active development programs that may emerge in the future.
Many of the companies developing or marketing competing products enjoy several advantages over us, including:
| ● | more experienced sales forces; |
| ● | greater name recognition; |
| ● | more established sales and marketing programs and distribution networks; |
| ● | earlier regulatory clearance or approval in the United States or foreign jurisdictions; |
| ● | long established relationships with physicians and hospitals; |
| ● | significant patent portfolios, including issued U.S. and foreign patents and pending patent applications, as well as the resources to enforce patents against us or any of our third-party suppliers and distributors; |
| ● | the ability to acquire and integrate our competitors and/or their technology; |
| ● | demonstrated ability to develop product enhancements and new product offerings; |
| ● | established history of product reliability, safety and durability; |
| ● | the ability to offer rebates or bundle multiple product offerings to offer greater discounts or incentives; |
| ● | greater financial and human resources for product development, sales, and marketing; and |
| ● | greater experience in and resources for conducting research and development, clinical studies, manufacturing, preparing regulatory submissions, obtaining regulatory clearance or approval for products and marketing approved products. |
Our competitors may develop and patent processes or products earlier than us, obtain patents that may apply to us at any time, obtain regulatory clearance or approvals for competing products more rapidly than us or develop more effective or less expensive products or technologies that render our technology or products obsolete or less competitive. Furthermore, the frequent introduction by competitors of products that are, or claim to be, superior to our products may create market confusion that may make it difficult to differentiate the benefits of our products over competitive products. In addition, the entry of multiple new products may lead some of our competitors to employ pricing strategies that could adversely affect the pricing of any product we may develop and commercialize. We also face fierce competition in recruiting and retaining qualified sales, scientific, and management personnel, establishing clinical trial sites and enrolling patients in clinical studies. If our competitors are more successful than us in these matters, our business may be harmed.

The size and future growth in the market for our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and for other future products and technology under development have not been established with precision and may be smaller than we estimate, possibly materially. If our estimates and projections overestimate the size of these markets, our sales growth may be adversely affected.
The size and future growth potential of the market for our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and other future products and technology under development may be materially smaller than our estimates. Our market projections are based on internal and third-party studies, current treatment patterns, and our belief that the incidence of targeted neurological disorders (including epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, and chronic pain from failed back surgeries) is increasing in the United States and worldwide.
While we believe these factors provide reliable tools for market estimation, the underlying assumptions and conditions may change, affecting their predictive accuracy. If our assumptions about disease incidence rates or potential market demand prove incorrect, the actual market size and growth potential could be materially different from our projections. Any overestimation of the market opportunity could adversely impact our projected sales growth and overall business performance.
We depend on our partnership with Mayo to license certain know how for the development and commercialization of our technology. Termination of this partnership would harm our business, and even if this partnership continues, it may not be successful.
We have entered into the Mayo Development Agreement to (i) exclusively license worldwide certain Mayo improvements for the development and commercialization of products, methods and processes related to flexible circuit technology for the recording and stimulation of tissue and (ii) license, on a non-exclusive basis, worldwide Mayo thin film electrode technology know-how for the development and commercialization of products, methods and processes related to flexible circuit technology for the recording and stimulation of tissue. Mayo has agreed to assist the Company by providing access to the Mayo Principal Investigators in developing a minimally invasive device/delivery system and procedure for a minimally invasive approach for the implantation of any flexible circuit technology developed by the Company, including prototype development, animal testing, protocol development for human and animal use, abstract development and presentation and access to and license of any intellectual property that the Mayo Principal Investigators develop relating to the procedure. See “Business-Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research License and Development Agreement” for additional information regarding our agreement with Mayo.
The Mayo Development Agreement generally will expire in October 2034, unless the Mayo know-how and improvements under the Mayo Development Agreement remain in use, and the Mayo Development Agreement may be terminated by Mayo for cause or under certain circumstances. Mayo and the Company may not be successful in their efforts to develop any product, method, process, device, delivery system or minimally invasive approach by such expiration date or termination, if at all. If no such minimally invasive device or delivery system and procedure for minimally invasive approach is developed, the Company may never receive regulatory approval of its cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology under development or the market may never accept such technology, if approved.
Disputes may arise between us and Mayo regarding intellectual property subject to the Mayo Development Agreement or other matters, including with respect to: the scope of rights granted under the agreement and other interpretation-related issues; the amount and timing of payments; the rights and obligations of Mayo under the license agreement; and the ownership of inventions and know-how resulting from the joint creation or use of intellectual property by Mayo and us.
Any disputes with Mayo may prevent or impair our ability to maintain our current arrangement. We depend on the intellectual property licensed from and development assistance from Mayo to develop our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to comply with the Mayo Development Agreement. In fact, the original license and development agreement entered into with Mayo in 2014 required that, upon the Merger with the LLC, we make certain payments and issue shares of Common Stock to Mayo, which we failed to do at such time.

We contract with third parties for the manufacture of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and for our future products and technology under development, and expect to continue to do so for clinical trials and commercialization. Risks associated with the manufacturing of our products could reduce our gross margins and negatively affect our operating results.
We currently rely, and expect to continue to rely, on third parties for the manufacture of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Therefore, our business strategy depends on our third-party manufacturers’ ability to manufacture our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and future generations thereof in sufficient quantities and on a timely basis so as to meet consumer demand, while adhering to product quality standards, complying with regulatory requirements and managing manufacturing costs. To date, we have only manufactured small quantities of our cortical electrodes. As a result, we currently have limited data and experience regarding the quality, reliability and timeliness of our third-party manufacturers.
We are subject to numerous risks relating to the manufacturing capabilities of our third-party manufacturers, including:
| ● | quality or reliability defects; |
| ● | inability to secure product components in a timely manner, in sufficient quantities or on commercially reasonable terms; |
| ● | failure to increase production to meet demand; |
| ● | inability to modify production lines to enable us to efficiently produce future products or implement changes in current products in response to regulatory requirements; |
| ● | difficulty identifying and qualifying alternative manufacturers in a timely manner; |
| ● | inability to manufacture product components cost-effectively; |
| ● | inability to establish agreements with future third-party manufacturers or to do so on acceptable terms; |
| ● | potential damage to or destruction of our manufacturers’ equipment or facilities; |
| ● | failure to complete sterilization on time or in compliance with the required regulatory standards; |
| ● | transportation and import and export risk; |
| ● | delays in analytical results or failure of analytical techniques that we will depend on for quality control and release of products; |
| ● | natural disasters, labor disputes, financial distress, raw material availability, issues with facilities and equipment or other forms of disruption to business operations affecting our manufacturers or suppliers; or |
| ● | latent defects that may become apparent after products have been released and that may result in a recall of such products. |
These risks are likely to be exacerbated by our limited experience with our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology and its manufacturing process. As demand for our products increases, our third-party suppliers will need to invest additional resources to purchase components, hire and train employees, and enhance their manufacturing processes. If our manufacturers fail to increase production capacity efficiently, our sales may not increase in line with our expectations and our operating margins could fluctuate or decline. In addition, manufacturing any future versions of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology may require the modification of production lines, the identification of new manufacturers for specific components, or the development of new manufacturing technologies. It may not be possible for us to manufacture these products at a cost or in quantities sufficient to make any future versions of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology commercially viable.

We depend on sophisticated information technology systems, and any breach or disruption affecting these systems could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.
The efficient operation of our business depends on our information technology systems, which we use to manage product development tasks, research and development data and accounting and financial functions. In the future, we may rely on our information technology systems for inventory management and technical support functions. Our information technology systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, fires, floods, other natural disasters, terrorist attacks, attacks by computer viruses or hackers, power losses, and computer system or data network failures.
In addition, our data management application and a variety of our software systems are hosted by third-party service providers whose security and information technology systems are subject to similar risks. If our, or our third-party service provider’s, security systems are breached or fail, unauthorized persons may be able to obtain access to sensitive data.
To the extent that any disruption or security breach were to result in a loss of, or damage to, our data or applications, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could incur liability. The failure of our or our service providers’ information technology systems or our transmitter’s software to perform as we anticipate or our failure to effectively implement new information technology systems could disrupt our entire operation, adversely affect our products, or result in delays in our product development, clinical trial or commercialization efforts, increased overhead costs and damage our reputation. Any of these results could negatively affect our business, financial condition and operating results.
We have entered into, and may enter into additional collaborations, in-licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships with third-parties that may not result in the development of commercially viable products or the generation of significant future revenues.
In the ordinary course of our business, we may enter into collaborations, in-licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances, partnerships or other arrangements to develop products and to pursue new markets. Proposing, negotiating and implementing collaborations, in-licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships may be a lengthy and complex process. Other companies, including those with substantially greater financial, marketing, sales, technology or other business resources, may compete with us for these opportunities or arrangements. We may not identify, secure, or complete any such transactions or arrangements in a timely manner, on a cost-effective basis, on acceptable terms or at all. We have limited institutional knowledge and experience with respect to these business development activities, and we may also not realize the anticipated benefits of any such transaction or arrangement. In particular, these collaborations may not result in the development of products that achieve commercial success or result in significant revenues and could be terminated prior to developing any products.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
Additionally, we may not be in a position to exercise sole decision making authority regarding the transaction or arrangement, which could create the potential risk of creating impasses on decisions, and our future collaborators may have economic or business interests or goals that are, or that may become, inconsistent with our business interests or goals. It is possible that conflicts may arise with our collaborators, such as conflicts concerning the achievement of performance milestones, or the interpretation of significant terms under any agreement, such as those related to financial obligations or the ownership or control of intellectual property developed during the collaboration. If any conflicts arise with any future collaborators, they may act in their self-interest, which may be adverse to our best interest, and they may breach their obligations to us. In addition, we may have limited control over the amount and timing of resources that any future collaborators devote to our or their future products. Disputes between us and our collaborators may result in litigation or arbitration which would increase our expenses and divert the attention of our management. Further, these transactions and arrangements will be contractual in nature and will generally be terminable under the terms of the applicable agreements and, in such event, we may not continue to have rights to the products relating to such transaction or arrangement or may need to purchase such rights at a premium.
If we enter into in-bound intellectual property license agreements, we may not be able to fully protect the licensed intellectual property rights or maintain those licenses. Future licensors could retain the right to prosecute and defend the intellectual property rights licensed to us, in which case we would depend on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce intellectual property protection for the licensed intellectual property. These licensors may determine not to pursue litigation against other companies or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Further, entering into such license agreements could impose various diligence, commercialization, royalty or other obligations on us. Future licensors may allege that we have breached our license agreement with them, and accordingly seek to terminate our license, which could adversely affect our competitive business position and harm our business prospects.
We have been the victim of a cyber-related crime and our controls may not be successful in avoiding further cyber-related crimes in the future.
In January 2023, we were the victim of a business email compromise fraud which resulted in our incurring a loss of approximately $0.1 million. We have worked with law enforcement authorities and the banks involved in the wire transfer to pursue recovery of the $0.1 million, but at this time we do not expect that we will be able to recover such funds. Enhancements have been made to our controls relating to electronic payments by or for us that we believe will reduce our risk of becoming a victim of future frauds related to our payments, including by wire transfers. However, cyber-related criminal activities continue to evolve and increase in sophistication, frequency and severity. As a result, the control enhancements that have been made, and any additional enhancements that may be made in the future, to our controls may not be successful in avoiding our becoming a victim to further cyber-related crimes.
Risks Related to our Intellectual Property
Our ability to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technology is uncertain.
The medical device market in which we operate is largely technology driven. We rely primarily on patent, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements, to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technologies. We continue to review new technological developments in order to make decisions about what additional filings would be the most appropriate for us. We also plan to seek patent protection for our proprietary technology in select countries internationally. If we fail to timely file a patent application in any jurisdiction, we may be precluded from doing so at a later date. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that any patent application will be approved in a timely manner or at all. The rights granted to us under our patents, and the rights we are seeking to have granted in our pending patent applications, may not be meaningful or provide us with any commercial advantage. In addition, those rights could be opposed, contested or circumvented by our competitors, or be declared invalid or unenforceable in judicial or administrative proceedings. The failure of our patents to adequately protect our technology might make it easier for our competitors to offer the same or similar products or technologies. Even if we are successful in receiving patent protection for certain products and processes, our competitors may be able to design around our patents or develop products that provide outcomes which are comparable to ours without infringing our intellectual property rights. Due to differences between foreign and U.S. patent laws, our patented intellectual property rights may not receive the same degree of protection in foreign countries as they would in the United States. Even if patents are granted outside the United States, effective enforcement in those countries may not be available.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
We rely on our trademarks and trade names to distinguish our products from the products of our competitors, and have registered or applied to register many of these trademarks. For example, we have a registered U.S. trademark for the “EVO” trademark. We cannot assure you that any future trademark applications will be approved in a timely manner or at all. Third parties also may oppose our trademark applications, or otherwise challenge our use of the trademarks. In the event that our trademarks are successfully challenged, we could be forced to rebrand our products, which could result in loss of brand recognition, and could require us to devote additional resources to marketing new brands. Further, we cannot assure you that competitors will not infringe upon our trademarks, or that we will have adequate resources to enforce our trademarks.
We also rely on trade secrets, know-how and technology, which are not protectable by patents, to maintain our competitive position. We try to protect this information by entering into confidentiality agreements and intellectual property assignment agreements with our officers, employees, temporary employees and consultants regarding our intellectual property and proprietary technology. In the event of unauthorized use or disclosure or other breaches of those agreements, we may not be provided with meaningful protection for our trade secrets or other proprietary information. In addition, our trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently discovered by competitors. To the extent that our commercial partners, collaborators, employees and consultants use intellectual property owned by others in their work for us, disputes may arise as to the rights in the related or resulting know-how and inventions. If any of our trade secrets, know-how or other technologies not protected by a patent were to be disclosed to or independently developed by a competitor, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
If a competitor infringes upon one of our patents, trademarks or other intellectual property rights, enforcing those patents, trademarks and other rights may be difficult and time-consuming. Patent law relating to the scope of claims in the industry in which we operate is subject to rapid change and constant evolution and, consequently, patent positions in our industry can be uncertain. Even if successful, litigation to defend our patents and trademarks against challenges or to enforce our intellectual property rights could be expensive and time consuming and could divert management’s attention from managing our business. Moreover, we may not have sufficient resources or desire to defend our patents or trademarks against challenges or to enforce our intellectual property rights. Litigation also puts our patents at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly and our patent applications at risk of not issuing. Additionally, we may provoke third-parties to assert claims against us. We may not prevail in any lawsuits that we initiate and the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, may not be commercially valuable. The occurrence of any of these events may harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
There is limited market awareness of our technology, and we may not be able to establish or strengthen our brand.
There is currently limited market awareness of our technology. We believe that establishing and strengthening our brand is critical to achieving widespread acceptance of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology. Promoting and positioning our brand, and increasing market awareness of our technology, will depend largely on the success of our marketing efforts and our ability to provide physicians with a reliable product for successful treatment of brain-related disorders. Additionally, we believe the quality and reliability of our product is critical to building physician support in the United States. We initially received early feedback requesting improvements around the reliability of our Evo SEEG, and while we believe we have largely addressed these requests, any negative publicity regarding the quality or reliability of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology could significantly damage our reputation in the market. Further, given the established nature of our competitors, it is likely that our future marketing efforts will require us to incur significant additional expenses. These brand promotion activities may not yield increased sales and, even if they do, any sales increases may not offset the expenses we incur to promote our brand. If we fail to successfully promote and maintain our brand, or if we incur substantial expenses in an unsuccessful attempt to promote and maintain our brand, our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology may not be accepted by physicians, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We could become subject to patent litigation that could be costly, result in the diversion of management’s time and efforts, stop our development and commercialization measures or require us to pay damages.
Our success will depend in part on not infringing the patents or violating the other proprietary rights of third-parties. Significant litigation regarding patent rights exists in our industry. Our competitors in both the United States and abroad, many of which have substantially greater resources and have made substantial investments in competing technologies, may have applied for or obtained or may in the future apply for and obtain, patents that will prevent, limit or otherwise interfere with our ability to make and sell our products. The large number of patents, the rapid rate of new patent issuances, and the complexities of the technology involved increase the risk of patent litigation.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
In the future, we could receive communications from various industry participants alleging our infringement of their intellectual property rights. Any potential intellectual property litigation could force us to do one or more of the following:
| ● | stop selling our products or using technology that contains the allegedly infringing intellectual property; |
| ● | incur significant legal expenses; |
| ● | pay substantial damages to the party whose intellectual property rights we are allegedly infringing; |
| ● | redesign those products that contain the allegedly infringing intellectual property; or |
| ● | attempt to obtain a license to the relevant intellectual property from third-parties, which may not be available on reasonable terms or at all, and if available, may be non-exclusive, thereby giving our competitors access to the same technology. |
Patent litigation can involve complex factual and legal questions, and its outcome is uncertain. Any litigation or claim against us, even those without merit, may cause us to incur substantial costs, and could place a significant strain on our financial resources, divert the attention of management from our core business and harm our reputation. Further, as the number of participants in the neurostimulation market increases, the possibility of intellectual property infringement claims against us increases.
We may be subject to damages resulting from claims that we, or our employees, have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of our competitors or are in breach of non-competition or non-solicitation agreements with our competitors.
Some of our current or future employees may have previously been employed at other medical device companies, including those that are our direct competitors or could potentially be our direct competitors. We may be subject to claims that we, or our employees, have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information of these former employers or competitors. In addition, we may in the future be subject to allegations that we caused an employee to breach the terms of his or her non-competition or non-solicitation agreement. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims.
There can be no assurance that this type of litigation will not occur, and any future litigation or the threat thereof may adversely affect our ability to hire additional employees. A loss of key personnel or their work product could hamper or prevent our ability to commercialize our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology or future versions thereof, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.
Intellectual property rights do not necessarily address all potential threats to our competitive advantage.
The degree of future protection afforded by our intellectual property rights is uncertain because intellectual property rights have limitations, and may not adequately protect our business, or permit us to maintain our competitive advantage. The following examples are illustrative:
| ● | others may be able to make devices that are the same as or similar to our various electrode technologies but that are not covered by the claims of the patents that we own; |
| ● | we or any collaborators might not have been the first to make the inventions covered by the issued patents or pending patent applications that we own; |
| ● | we might not have been the first to file patent applications covering certain of our inventions; |
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
| ● | others may independently develop similar or alternative technologies or duplicate any of our technologies without infringing our intellectual property rights; |
| ● | it is possible that our pending patent applications will not lead to issued patents; |
| ● | issued patents that we own may not provide us with any competitive advantages, or may be held invalid or unenforceable as a result of legal challenges; |
| ● | we might enforce our patent rights or defend a challenge to our issued patents or pending application, putting the patents and patent applications at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly; |
| ● | our competitors might conduct research and development activities in the United States and other countries that provide a safe harbor from patent infringement claims for certain research and development activities, as well as in countries where we do not have patent rights, and then use the information learned from such activities to develop competitive products for sale in our major commercial markets; and |
| ● | we may not develop additional proprietary technologies that are patentable. |
Risks Related to our Legal and Regulatory Environment
Our products and operations are subject to extensive governmental regulation, and any adverse regulatory action may materially adversely affect our financial condition and business operations.
Our medical devices and technologies and business activities, including marketing, manufacturing, sales and development processes, are subject to regulation by the FDA, U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”), Health and Human Services - Office of Inspector General, and other federal and state, governmental authorities. These governmental authorities enforce laws and regulations that are meant to assure product safety and effectiveness, including the regulation of, among other things:
| ● | product design and development; |
| ● | pre-clinical studies and clinical trials; |
| ● | product safety; |
| ● | establishment registration and product listing; |
| ● | labeling, content and language of instructions for use and storage; |
| ● | marketing, manufacturing, sales and distribution; |
| ● | pre-market clearance or approval; |
| ● | servicing and post-market surveillance; |
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
| ● | record-keeping procedures; |
| ● | product import and export; |
| ● | advertising and promotion; and |
| ● | recalls and field safety corrective actions. |
The regulations to which we are subject are complex and have tended to become more stringent over time. Regulatory changes could result in restrictions on our ability to carry on or expand our operations, higher than anticipated costs or lower than anticipated revenues.
Failure to comply with applicable regulations could jeopardize our ability to sell our products and result in enforcement actions such as fines, civil penalties, injunctions, warning letters, recalls of products, delays in the introduction of products into the market, refusal of the regulatory agency or other regulators to grant future clearances or approvals, and the suspension or withdrawal of existing approvals by such regulatory agencies. Any of these sanctions could result in higher than anticipated costs or lower than anticipated sales and harm our reputation, business, financial condition and operating results.
A recall of our products, or the discovery of serious safety issues with our products, could have a significant negative impact on us.
The FDA has the authority to require the recall of commercialized products in the event of material deficiencies or defects in design or manufacture or in the event that a product poses an unacceptable risk to health. Our third-party suppliers may, under their own initiative, recall a product if any material deficiency in a device is found. A government-mandated or voluntary recall by us or one of our third-party distributors, if any, could occur as a result of an unacceptable risk to health, component failures, manufacturing errors, design or labeling defects or other deficiencies and issues. Recalls of any of our products would divert managerial and financial resources and have an adverse effect on our reputation, financial condition and operating results, which could impair our ability to produce our products in a cost-effective and timely manner.
Further, under the FDA’s medical device reporting regulations, we are required to report to the FDA any incident in which our product may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or in which our product malfunctioned and, if the malfunction were to recur, would likely cause or contribute to death or serious injury. Repeated product malfunctions may result in a voluntary or involuntary product recall, which could divert managerial and financial resources, impair our ability to manufacture our products in a cost-effective and timely manner and have an adverse effect on our reputation, financial condition and operating results.
Any adverse event involving our products could result in future voluntary corrective actions, such as recalls or customer notifications, or regulatory agency action, which could include inspection, mandatory recall or other enforcement action. Any corrective action, whether voluntary or involuntary, will require the dedication of our time and capital, distract management from operating our business and may harm our reputation and financial results.
We are subject to additional federal, state and foreign laws and regulations relating to our healthcare business; our failure to comply with those laws could have an adverse impact on our business.
Although we do not provide healthcare services, submit claims for third-party reimbursement, or receive payments directly from government health insurance programs or other third-party payors for our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology, we are subject to healthcare fraud and abuse regulation and enforcement by federal, state and foreign governments, which could adversely impact our business. Healthcare fraud and abuse and health information privacy and security laws potentially applicable to our operations include, but are not limited to:
| ● | the Anti-Kickback Statute, which may apply to our marketing practices, educational programs, pricing policies and relationships with healthcare providers, by prohibiting, among other things, soliciting, receiving, offering or providing remuneration intended to induce the purchase or recommendation of an item or service reimbursable under a federal healthcare program, such as the Medicare or Medicaid programs. A person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of this statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation; |
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
| ● | federal civil and criminal false claims laws and civil monetary penalty laws, including civil whistleblower or qui tam actions that prohibit, among other things, knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, claims for payment or approval to the federal government that are false or fraudulent, knowingly making a false statement material to an obligation to pay or transmit money or property to the federal government or knowingly concealing or knowingly and improperly avoiding or decreasing an obligation to pay or transmit money or property to the federal government. The government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the false claims statutes; |
| ● | HIPAA is a U.S. federal law that protects the privacy and security of patient health information while standardizing healthcare data practices. It is enforced by the Office for Civil Rights through investigations, audits, and penalties for noncompliance; |
| ● | federal “sunshine” requirements imposed by the ACA on device manufacturers regarding any “transfer of value” made or distributed to physicians and teaching hospitals. Failureto submit required information may result in civil monetary penalties, for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately, and completely reported in an annual submission. Manufacturers must submit reports by the 90th day of each subsequent calendar year; |
| ● | federal consumer protection and unfair competition laws, which broadly regulate marketplace activities and activities that potentially harm consumers; and |
| ● | state law equivalents of each of the above federal laws, such as anti-kickback and false claims laws that may apply to items or services reimbursed by any third-party payor, including commercial insurers; state laws that require device companies to comply with the industry’s voluntary compliance guidelines and the relevant compliance guidance promulgated by the federal government or otherwise restrict payments that may be made to healthcare providers; state laws that require device manufacturers to report information related to payments and other transfers of value to physicians and other healthcare providers or marketing expenditures; and state laws governing the privacy and security of certain health information, many of which differ from each other in significant ways and often are not preempted by HIPAA. |
Navigating these laws and regulations can be complex due to their evolving scope, varying and changing interpretations by regulatory authorities and courts, and differences across jurisdictions. We are unable to predict what additional federal, state or foreign legislation or regulatory initiatives may be enacted in the future regarding our business or the healthcare industry in general, or what effect such legislation or regulations may have on us. Federal, state or foreign governments may (i) impose additional restrictions or adopt interpretations of existing laws that could have a material adverse effect on us or (ii) challenge our current or future activities under these laws. Any of these challenges could impact our reputation, business, financial condition and operating results.
If our operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws described above or any other governmental regulations that apply to us now or in the future, we may be subject to penalties, including civil and criminal penalties, damages, fines, disgorgement of profits, exclusion from governmental health care programs, and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations, any of which could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our financial results.
For example, we inadvertently have not submitted certain required information to CMS under these regulations. Though we intend to promptly report the omission to CMS and ensure all required information is submitted on time going forward, we cannot fully predict whether the missing submissions will result in adverse consequences or regulatory scrutiny. Any federal, state or foreign regulatory review to which we may become subject, regardless of the outcome, could be costly and time-consuming.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
To enforce compliance with the federal laws, the DOJ, has increased its scrutiny of interactions between healthcare companies and healthcare providers, which has led to a number of investigations, prosecutions, convictions and settlements in the healthcare industry. Dealing with investigations can be time and resource consuming and can divert management’s attention from our core business. Additionally, if we settle an investigation with law enforcement or other regulatory agencies, we may be forced to agree to additional onerous compliance and reporting requirements as part of a consent decree or corporate integrity agreement. Any such investigation or settlement could increase our costs or otherwise have an adverse effect on our business.
We may be liable if the FDA or another regulatory agency concludes that we have engaged in the off-label promotion of our products.
Our promotional materials and training methods must comply with FDA and other applicable laws and regulations, including the prohibition of the promotion of the off-label use of our products. Healthcare providers may use our products, if approved, off-label, as the FDA does not restrict or regulate a physician’s choice of treatment within the practice of medicine. However, if the FDA determines that our promotional materials or training constitute promotion of an off-label use, it could request that we modify our training or promotional materials or subject us to regulatory or enforcement actions, including the issuance of an untitled letter, a warning letter, injunction, seizure, civil fine and criminal penalties. It is also possible that other federal, state or foreign enforcement authorities might take action if they consider our promotional or training materials to constitute promotion of an unapproved use, which could result in significant fines or penalties. Although we intend to train our marketing and direct sales force to not promote our products for uses outside of their cleared uses and our policy will be to refrain from statements that could be considered off-label promotion of our products, the FDA or another regulatory agency could disagree and conclude that we have engaged in off-label promotion. In addition, the off-label use of our products may increase the risk of product liability claims. Product liability claims are expensive to defend and could result in substantial damage awards against us and harm our reputation.
Legislative or regulatory healthcare reforms may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results or operations and cash flows.
Recent political, economic and regulatory influences are subjecting the healthcare industry to fundamental changes. The sales of our products depend in part on the availability of coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors such as government health administration authorities, private health insurers, health maintenance organizations and other healthcare-related organizations. Both the federal and state governments in the United States continue to propose and pass new legislation and regulations designed to contain or reduce the cost of healthcare. This legislation and regulation may result in decreased reimbursement for medical devices, which may further exacerbate industry-wide pressure to reduce the prices charged for medical devices. This could harm our ability to market our products and generate sales.
In addition, FDA regulations and guidance are often revised or reinterpreted by the FDA in ways that may significantly affect our business and our products. Any new regulations or revisions or reinterpretations of existing regulations may impose additional costs or lengthen review times of our products. Delays in receipt of or failure to receive regulatory clearances or approvals for our products would harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
While one often stated goal of healthcare reform is to expand coverage to more individuals, it also involves increased government price controls, additional regulatory mandates and other measures designed to constrain medical costs. For example, the ACA and Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010 were enacted into law in the U.S. in March 2010. Certain provisions of this law, including comparative effectiveness research, pilot programs to evaluate alternative payment methodologies and other changes to the payment systems, have started changing the way healthcare is delivered, reimbursed and funded. While the extent to which it has affected our business is not clear, these changes, over the long term, may adversely affect our business and results of operations. The current U.S. administration may attempt to reverse some of the previous administration’s changes to the ACA, particularly related to healthcare coverage for the uninsured, and is further expected to introduce more ambitious healthcare legislation, which could include what is commonly referred to as a “public option” or changes to Medicare age requirements. If passed, this legislation would lead to increased coverage levels and utilization of services; however, at this point, the impact of any such changes is unclear because specific changes have not been enacted or implemented.
We cannot predict whether any additional healthcare reform proposals will be adopted or how such proposals may impact our business and operations. However, any changes that lower reimbursements for either our products or procedures using our products, reduce medical procedure volumes, increase cost containment pressures on us or others in the healthcare sector, or impose additional or heightened regulatory requirements could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Risks Related to our Common Stock
The price of our Common Stock might fluctuate.
Volatility in the market price of our Common Stock may prevent you from being able to sell your shares of our Common Stock at or above the price you paid for your shares. The trading price of our Common Stock may be volatile and subject to wide price fluctuations in response to various factors, including:
| ● | actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial and operating results; |
| ● | our progress toward developing our cortical strip and sheet electrode technology; |
| ● | the commencement, enrollment and results of our future clinical trials; |
| ● | adverse results from, delays in or termination of our clinical trials; |
| ● | adverse regulatory decisions, including failure to receive regulatory approval; |
| ● | publication of research reports about us or our industry or positive or negative recommendations or withdrawal of research coverage by securities analysts, if any; |
| ● | perceptions about the market acceptance of our products and the recognition of our brand; |
| ● | adverse publicity about our products or industry in general; |
| ● | overall performance of the equity markets; |
| ● | introduction of products, or announcements of significant contracts, licenses or acquisitions, by us or our competitors; |
| ● | legislative, political or regulatory developments; |
| ● | additions or departures of key personnel; |
| ● | threatened or actual litigation and government investigations; |
| ● | third-party promotional activities, which are subject to ongoing regulatory obligations; |
| ● | sale of shares of our Common Stock by us or members of our management; and |
| ● | general economic conditions. |
These and other factors might cause the market price of our Common Stock to fluctuate substantially, which may negatively affect the liquidity of our Common Stock. In addition, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant impact on the market price of securities issued by many companies across many industries. The changes frequently appear to occur without regard to the operating performance of the affected companies. Accordingly, the price of our Common Stock could fluctuate based upon factors that have little or nothing to do with our Company, and these fluctuations could materially reduce our share price.

Securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the overall market and in the market price of a company’s securities. This litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs, divert our management’s attention and resources, and harm our business, operating results and financial condition.
If we fail to comply with the continued listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market, our Common Stock could be delisted. If it is delisted, our Common Stock and the liquidity of our Common Stock would be impacted.
On May 6, 2025, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying that because the closing bid price of our common stock was below $1.00 per share for the prior 30 consecutive business days, we are not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we had a period of 180 calendar days, or until November 3, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
On November 4, 2025, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying us that we have been granted a 180-day extension, until May 4, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. We will continue to monitor the closing bid price of our common stock and seek to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement within the extension period. If we do not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement within the extension period, Nasdaq will provide written notification to us that our common stock will be subject to delisting, at which time we may appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearing Panel. There can be no assurance that, if we do need to appeal a Nasdaq delisting determination to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel, that such appeal would be successful.
The continued listing of our Common Stock on Nasdaq is contingent on our continued compliance with a number of listing standards. There is no assurance that we will remain in compliance with these standards. Delisting from Nasdaq would adversely affect our ability to raise additional financing through the public or private sale of equity securities, significantly affect the ability of investors to trade our securities and negatively affect the value and liquidity of our Common Stock. Delisting also could limit our strategic alternatives and attractiveness to potential counterparties and have other negative results, including the potential loss of employee confidence, the loss of institutional investors or interest in business development opportunities. Moreover, we have committed in connection with the sale of securities to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of its Common Stock during such time that certain warrants are outstanding.
Any failure to maintain an effective system of internal controls over our financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could result in material misstatements of our financial statements or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or fail to prevent fraud in which case, our stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and could negatively impact the price of our stock.
We are required to comply with the internal control evaluation and certification requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”) and management is required to report annually on our internal control over financial reporting. This assessment includes disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting. Although we prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, our internal accounting controls may not meet all standards applicable to companies with publicly traded securities. Our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of SOX until the date we have a public float of $75 million or greater.

If we fail to maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting, it could result in material misstatements in the annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected in a timely manner. In that case, we could become subject to regulatory sanction or investigation. Further, these outcomes could damage investor confidence in the accuracy and reliability of our financial statements. Our management has concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were, and continue to be, effective as of September 30, 2025. We cannot assure you that material weaknesses or significant deficiencies will not occur in the future and that we will be able to remediate such weaknesses or deficiencies in a timely manner, which could impair our ability to accurately and timely report our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. If we are not able to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, our financial statements, including related disclosures, may be inaccurate, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We intend to issue more shares to raise capital, which will result in substantial dilution.
Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of a maximum of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Until we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through the sale of equity, debt financings, or other capital sources. Any additional financings effected by us may result in the issuance of additional securities without stockholder approval and the substantial dilution in the percentage of Common Stock held by our then existing stockholders. Moreover, the Common Stock issued in any such transaction may be valued on an arbitrary or non-arm’s-length basis by our management, resulting in an additional reduction in the percentage of Common Stock held by our current stockholders. Our Board has the power to issue any or all of such authorized but unissued shares without stockholder approval. To the extent that additional shares of Common Stock are issued, dilution to the interests of our stockholders will occur and the rights of the holder of Common Stock might be materially and adversely affected.
As of September 30, 2025, we had outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,895,875 shares of Common Stock, and options to purchase an aggregate of 6,083,167 shares of Common Stock. For a description of our outstanding warrants and information about the number of shares of Common Stock for which they are exercisable, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Liquidity and Capital Resources-Capital Resources.” To the extent these outstanding options or warrants are exercised, there will be further dilution to holders of our Common Stock.
Anti-takeover provisions in the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws may prevent or frustrate attempts by stockholders to change the Board or current management and could make a third-party acquisition of the Company difficult.
The Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. For example, our certificate of incorporation permits the Board without stockholder approval to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to fix the designation, power, preferences, and rights of those shares. Furthermore, our Board has the ability to increase the size of the Board and fill the newly created vacancies without stockholder approval. These provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of the Common Stock.
Our management has identified certain internal control deficiencies, which management believes constitute a material weakness. Our failure to establish and maintain an effective system of internal controls could result in material misstatements of our financial statements or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or fail to prevent fraud in which case, our stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and could negatively impact the price of our common stock.
We review and update our internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures, and corporate governance policies as our Company continues to evolve. In addition, we are required to comply with the internal control evaluation and certification requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”) and management is required to report annually on our internal control over financial reporting. Our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of SOX until the date we are no longer a “smaller reporting company” as defined by applicable SEC rules.
Our management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of September 30, 2025 concluded that our controls were not effective, due to a material weakness resulting from an ineffective overall control environment. The material weakness stems primarily from our small size and includes the inability to maintain appropriate segregation of duties.
Such shortcomings could have an adverse effect on our business and financial results. Any system of internal controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of the controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulation concerning control and procedures could have a material effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition. Any of these events could result in an adverse reaction in the financial marketplace due to a loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which ultimately could negatively affect the market price of our shares, increase the volatility of our stock price and adversely affect our ability to raise additional funding. The effect of these events could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board and as executive officers.
Subject to limitations on liquidity, the Company is planning to take steps to remediate this material weakness. However, we cannot assure you that any of the measures we implement to remedy any such deficiencies will effectively mitigate or remedy such deficiencies.

We are a smaller reporting company, and the reduced reporting requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies may make our Common Stock less attractive to investors.
We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Section 12 of the Exchange Act. For as long as we continue to be a smaller reporting company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not smaller reporting companies such as, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our annual and periodic reports and proxy statements and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We will remain a “smaller reporting company” as long as (i) our public float remains less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenues are less than $100 million and we either have no public float, or our public float is less than $700 million. Public float is measured as of the last business day of our most recently-completed second fiscal quarter, and annual revenues are as of the most recently completed fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available. We cannot predict if investors will find our Common Stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our Common Stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Common Stock and our stock price may be more volatile.
We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future, and any return on investment may be limited to the value of our stock.
We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, you may have to sell some or all of your shares of our Common Stock in order to generate cash flow from your investment. You may not receive a gain on your investment when you sell shares and you may lose the entire amount of the investment.
If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports, or publish unfavorable research or reports, about us, our business or our market, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our Common Stock will be influenced by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us and our business. Securities or industry analysts may elect not to provide coverage of our Common Stock, and such lack of coverage may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. In the event we do not secure additional securities or industry analyst coverage, we will not have any control over the analysts or the content and opinions included in their reports. The price of our stock could decline if one or more securities or industry analysts downgrade our stock or issue other unfavorable commentary or research. If one or more securities or industry analysts ceases coverage of our Company or fails to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our stock could decrease, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.
Our Common Stock has been, and may in the future be subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.
The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” as an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The SEC’s penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and the salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that before a transaction in a penny stock occurs, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s agreement to the transaction. If our Common Stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules, these rules may restrict the ability of brokers-dealers to sell our Common Stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their shares, until our Common Stock no longer is considered a penny stock.

General Risk Factors
Adverse global economic conditions could have a negative effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition and liquidity.
A general slowdown in the global economy, including a recession, or in a particular region or industry, an increase in trade tensions with U.S. trading partners, inflation or a tightening of the credit markets could negatively impact our business, financial condition and liquidity. Adverse global economic conditions have from time to time caused or exacerbated significant slowdowns in the industries and markets in which we operate, which have adversely affected our business and results of operations. Macroeconomic weakness and uncertainty also make it more difficult for us to accurately forecast revenue, gross margin and expenses, and may make it more difficult to raise or refinance debt.
Worldwide economic and social instability could adversely affect our revenue, financial condition, or results of operations.
Generally, worldwide economic conditions remain uncertain, particularly due to the effects of the war, terrorism, military conflicts on global markets, the conflict and instability such as between Russia and Ukraine and potentially Eastern Europe, Israel, Lebanon, Iran, the Gaza Strip and the Middle East and Asia, disruptions in the banking system and financial markets, new and ongoing challenges relating to current supply chain constraints, the impact of natural disasters or global pandemics, increased inflation and rising interest rates. The general economic and capital market conditions, both in the U.S. and worldwide, have been volatile in the past and at times have adversely affected the Company’s access to capital and increased the cost of capital. The capital and credit markets may not be available to support future capital raising activity on favorable terms. If economic conditions decline, the Company’s future cost of equity or debt capital and access to the capital markets could be adversely affected. Our vendors and development partners may experience financial difficulties or be unable to borrow money to fund their operations, which may adversely impact their ability to purchase our products or to pay for our products on a timely basis, if at all. In addition, adverse economic conditions, such as recent supply chain disruptions and labor shortages and persistent inflation, have affected, and may continue to adversely affect our suppliers’ ability to provide our manufacturers with materials and components, which may negatively impact our business. These economic conditions make it more difficult for us to accurately forecast and plan our future business activities.
Changes in tax laws or exposure to additional income tax liabilities could have a material impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
We are subject to income and other non-income-based taxes and tariffs in the U.S., and our operations, plans and results are affected by tax and other initiatives. The rules dealing with U.S. federal, state and local income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Treasury Department, and state/local taxing authorities. The tax laws in the U.S. could change on a prospective or retroactive basis, and any such changes could materially adversely affect our business, our results of operations, our effective tax rate, and holders of our Common Stock. We cannot predict whether, when, in what form, or with what effective dates, tax laws, regulations and rulings may be enacted, promulgated or decided, which could result in an increase in our, or our stockholders’, tax liability or require changes in the manner in which we operate in order to minimize increases in our tax liability. In recent years, many such changes have been made and changes are likely to continue to occur in the future. Future changes in tax laws could have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flow, financial condition, results of operations, tax provision, cash tax liability, and effective tax rate. For example, in August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was enacted into law. The IRA includes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax and a 1% excise tax on share repurchases.
We urge investors to consult with their legal and tax advisers regarding the implications of potential changes in tax laws on an investment in our Common Stock.
We are also subject to regular reviews, examinations, and audits by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities with respect to our taxes. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, if a taxing authority disagrees with the positions we have taken, we could face additional tax liability, including interest and penalties. There can be no assurance that payment of such additional amounts upon final adjudication of any disputes will not have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position.

We may seek to grow our business through acquisitions of complementary products or technologies, and the failure to complete acquisitions, or the failure to integrate them with our existing business, could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
From time to time, we may consider opportunities to acquire other companies, products or technologies that may enhance our product platform or technology, expand the breadth of our markets or customer base, or advance our business strategies. The success of our strategy relating to future acquisitions, investments or alliances will depend on a number of factors, including our ability to:
| ● | identify suitable opportunities for acquisition, investment or alliance, if at all; |
| ● | manage acquisition, investment or alliance opportunities within our capital capacity and prioritize those investments to execute on our strategy; |
| ● | manage our due diligence process to uncover potential issues and liabilities with targets; |
| ● | finance any future acquisition, investment or alliance on terms acceptable to us, if at all; |
| ● | complete acquisitions, investments or alliances in a timely manner on terms that are satisfactory to us, if at all; |
| ● | successfully integrate and operate acquired businesses; |
| ● | successfully identify and retain key target employees; |
| ● | comply with applicable laws and regulations; |
| ● | protect intellectual property and to prevail in litigation related to newly acquired technologies; |
| ● | assimilate the acquired products or technologies; |
| ● | maintain uniform standards, procedures, controls and policies; |
| ● | anticipate costs associated with acquisitions; |
| ● | avoid the diversion of management’s attention from our existing business; |
| ● | manage risks associated with entering new markets in which we have limited or no experience; and |
| ● | manage legal and accounting costs relating to the acquisitions or compliance with regulatory matters. |
We have no current commitments with respect to any acquisition. We do not know if we will be able to identify acquisitions we deem suitable, whether we will be able to successfully complete any such acquisitions on favorable terms or at all, or whether we will be able to successfully integrate any acquired products or technologies. Our potential inability to integrate any acquired products or technologies effectively may adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
Our future success depends on our ability to retain key executives and to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.
We are highly dependent on the management, research and development, clinical, financial and business development expertise of our officers and advisory board members. Although we have an employment agreement with our Chief Executive Officer, David Rosa, he (and each of our other key employees) may terminate his employment with us at any time and will continue to be able to do so. We do not maintain “key person” insurance for any of our executives or employees.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
Recruiting and retaining qualified scientific and clinical personnel will also be critical to our success. The loss of the services of our executive officers or other key employees could impede the achievement of our research, development and commercialization objectives and seriously harm our ability to successfully implement our business strategy. Furthermore, replacing executive officers and key employees may be difficult and may take an extended period of time because of the limited number of individuals in our industry with the breadth of skills and experience required to successfully develop, gain regulatory approval of and commercialize our products. Competition to hire from this limited pool is intense, and we may be unable to hire, train, retain or motivate these key personnel on acceptable terms given the competition among numerous medical device companies for similar personnel, many of which have greater financial and other resources dedicated to attracting and retaining personnel. We also experience competition for the hiring of scientific and clinical personnel from universities and research institutions. In addition, we rely on consultants and advisors, including scientific and clinical advisors, to assist us in formulating our research and development and commercialization strategy. Our consultants and advisors may be employed by employers other than us and may have commitments under consulting or advisory contracts with other entities that may limit their availability to us. If we are unable to continue to attract and retain high quality personnel, our ability to pursue our growth strategy will be limited.
Prolonged negative economic conditions could adversely affect us, our customers and third-party partners, manufactures or suppliers, if any, which could harm our financial condition.
We are subject to the risks arising from adverse changes in general economic and market conditions. Uncertainty about future economic conditions could negatively impact our existing and potential customers, adversely affect the financial ability of health insurers to pay claims, adversely impact our expenses and ability to obtain financing of our operations, and cause delays or other problems with key suppliers.
Healthcare spending in the United States has been, and is expected to continue to be, under significant pressure and there are many initiatives to reduce healthcare costs. As a result, we believe that some insurers are scrutinizing insurance claims more rigorously and delaying or denying coverage and reimbursement more often. Because the sale, if approved, of our cortical strip, grid electrode and depth electrode technology under development will generally depend on the availability of third-party coverage and reimbursement, any delay or decline in coverage and reimbursement will adversely affect our sales.
We have incurred, and may continue to incur increased costs and demands upon management as a result of being a public company.
As a public company in the United States, we incur significant legal, accounting and other costs. These additional costs could negatively affect our financial results. In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including regulations implemented by the SEC and the stock exchange on which we may list our Common Stock, may increase legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If, notwithstanding our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards, we fail to comply, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed. Failure to comply with these rules might also make it more difficult for us to obtain some types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we might be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. The impact of these events could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board, on committees of our Board or as members of senior management.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
Our corporate information technology, communication networks, enterprise applications, accounting and financial reporting platforms, and related systems are necessary for the operation of our business. We use these systems, among others, to manage our product development, to communicate internally and externally, to operate our accounting and record-keeping functions, to store and access data including sensitive patient data and for many other key aspects of our business. Our business operations rely on the secure collection, storage, transmission, and other processing of proprietary, confidential, and sensitive data.
Our Chief Administrative Officer leads our information security organization (overseeing work done by a third party IT services company) and reports to the Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors of any material information regarding such cybersecurity matters.
Risk Management and Strategy
We recognize the importance of assessing, identifying, and managing material risks associated with cybersecurity threats, as such term is defined in Item 106(a) of Regulation S-K. These risks include, among other things: operational risks, intellectual property theft, fraud, extortion, harm to employees, customers or patients, violation of data privacy or security laws, litigation, and legal, financial and reputational risk.
In coordination with third-party consultants, we have implemented and maintain various information security processes designed to identify, assess and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats to our critical systems and data. Depending on the environment, we implement and maintain various technical, physical, and organizational measures, processes, standards, and/or policies designed to manage and mitigate material risks from cybersecurity threats to our information systems and data, including risk assessments, incident detection and response, vulnerability management, disaster recovery and business continuity plans, internal controls within our accounting and financial reporting functions, encryption of data, network security controls, access controls, physical security, asset management, systems monitoring, vendor risk management program and employee training. We conduct annual reviews and tests of our information security program to evaluate its effectiveness and improve our security measures and planning.
To operate our business, we utilize certain third-party service providers and vendors to support a variety of functions. We seek to engage reliable, reputable service providers and vendors that maintain cybersecurity programs, and we implement a vetting process to ensure that all third-party service providers and venders comply with our cybersecurity program requirements. Depending on the nature of the services provided, the sensitivity and quantity of information processed, and the identity of the service provider, our vendor management process may include reviewing the cybersecurity practices of such provider, contractually imposing obligations on the provider, conducting security assessments, and conducting periodic reassessments during their engagement.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of NeuroOne together with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Report.
Overview
We are a medical technology company focused on (i) diagnostic, ablation and deep brain stimulation technology for brain related conditions such as epilepsy and Parkinson’s disease; (ii) ablation and stimulation for pain management throughout the body; and (iii) drug delivery including diagnostic and stimulation capabilities.
We are developing and commercializing thin film electrode technology for continuous electroencephalogram (“cEEG”) and stereoelectrocencephalography (“sEEG”), spinal cord stimulation, brain stimulation, drug delivery and ablation solutions for patients suffering from epilepsy, trigeminal neuralgia, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other pain-related neurological disorders. The Company is also developing the capability to use its sEEG electrode technology to deliver drugs or gene therapy while being able to record activity before, during, and after delivery.
We have received 510(k) clearance for four of our devices from the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), including: (i) our Evo cortical electrode technology for recording, monitoring, and stimulating brain tissue for up to 30 days (“Evo Cortical”), (ii) our Evo sEEG electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain (“Evo sEEG”), (iii) our OneRF ablation system for creation of radiofrequency lesions in nervous tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures (“OneRF Ablation System”), (iv) our OneRF TN ablation system for use in procedures to create radiofrequency (RF) lesions for the treatment of pain, or for lesioning nerve tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures (“OneRF TN Ablation System”). We have a distribution agreement with Zimmer, Inc. (“Zimmer”) providing Zimmer with a license to commercialize and distribute the Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System in the brain. We initiated a limited market release of the OneRF TN Ablation System in December 2025. The Company’s other products and indications are still under development.
We have largely incurred losses since inception. As of September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $78.6 million, primarily as a result of expenses incurred in connection with our research and development, selling, general and administrative expenses associated with our operations and interest expense, fair value adjustments and loss on extinguishments related to our debt, offset in part by license and product revenues.
Prior to FDA clearance of certain of our products, our main sources of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were proceeds from the issuances of notes, common stock, warrants and unsecured loans. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Capital Resources” below. While we have begun to generate revenue from the sale of our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, OneRF Ablation System, and OneRF TN Ablation System, and through milestone and other payments from our current collaboration and distribution arrangement with Zimmer, we expect to continue to incur significant expenses and may incur increasing operating and net losses for the foreseeable future until we generate a higher level of revenue from commercial sales.

510(k) Clearance for Trigeminal Facial Pain
On August 15, 2025 we received FDA 510(k) clearance to market its OneRF® Trigeminal Nerve Ablation System for use in procedures to create radiofrequency lesions for the treatment of pain, or for lesioning nerve tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures.
April 2025 Financing
On April 4, 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. as underwriter ( “Ladenburg”), relating to the issuance and sale of 16,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, at a price to the public of $0.50 per share (the “April 2025 Financing”). In addition, under the terms of the underwriting agreement, we granted Ladenburg an option, exercisable for 45 days, to purchase up to an additional 2,400,000 shares of common stock on the same terms as the offering, which was exercised in full. Net proceeds to the Company were approximately $8.2 million.
Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement
On October 25, 2024, we entered into the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Zimmer, Inc. (“Zimmer”) pursuant to which we granted Zimmer the exclusive right and license to distribute our OneRF Ablation System for an upfront payment of $3.0 million, with eligibility for an additional $1.0 million payment from Zimmer upon achievement of certain specified net sales milestones.
We previously entered into an Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement dated July 20, 2020 with Zimmer, related to the Evo Cortical and Evo sEEG products, which was subsequently amended pursuant to the terms and conditions of a letter agreement dated January 6, 2021, a Second Amendment to Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement dated June 28, 2022, and a Third Amendment to Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement dated August 2, 2022 (collectively, the “EDDA”).The EDDAs executed prior to the Amendment granted Zimmer exclusive global rights to distribute the Evo Cortical and Evo sEEG products. In addition, under the prior EDDAs, we agreed to collaborate with respect to development activities through a joint development committee composed of an equal number of representatives of Zimmer and the Company.
Under the Amendment, Zimmer paid us $3.0 million for an exclusive RF Distribution License (the “RF Distribution License” and “License”) for commercialization of the OneRF Ablation System in the brain. In addition, we are eligible to receive a future milestone payment of $1.0 million upon reaching a one-time sales volume threshold. We do not anticipate receiving this milestone payment.
The revised term under the Amendment (the “Term”) began on the effective date and will remain in effect until October 31, 2034. Upon the expiration of the Term, it may be renewed upon the mutual written of the Parties. The Zimmer Amended and Restated Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement may be terminated before the expiration of the Term only by the Parties in accordance with certain terms under the Amendment. In addition, the license rights granted to Zimmer under this Amendment shall be exclusive (i) from the original effective date until September 30, 2032 for the Evo Cortical and Evo sEEG products; and (ii) from the effective date until October 31, 2034 for the OneRF Ablation System.
Global Economic Conditions
Generally, worldwide economic conditions remain uncertain, particularly due to the conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, disruptions in the banking system and financial markets, and increased inflation. The general economic and capital market conditions both in the U.S. and worldwide, have been volatile in the past and at times have adversely affected our access to capital and increased the cost of capital. The capital and credit markets may not be available to support future capital raising activity on favorable terms or at all. If economic conditions continue to decline, our future cost of equity or debt capital and access to the capital markets could be adversely affected. We have experienced minor price increases from our suppliers related to tariffs on imported goods, and may experience additional price increases.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
Our operating results could be materially impacted by changes in the overall macroeconomic environment and other economic factors. Changes in economic conditions, supply chain constraints, logistics challenges, labor shortages, increased inflation, the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, disruptions in the banking system and financial markets, and steps taken by governments and central banks, have led to higher inflation, which has led to an increase in costs and has caused changes in fiscal and monetary policy, including increased interest rates.
Financial Overview
Product Revenue
Our product revenue was derived from the sale of our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System, which have each received FDA 510(k) clearance.
Product Gross Profit
Product gross profit represents our product revenue less our cost of product revenue. Our cost of product revenue consists of the manufacturing and materials costs incurred by our third-party contract manufacturers in connection with our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation Systems, and outside supplier costs of producing our electrode cable assembly products. In addition, the cost of product revenue includes royalty fees incurred in connection with our license agreements as well as valuation adjustments for excess or obsolete inventory.
License Revenue
The Company determined that the RF Distribution License granted under the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement represented functional intellectual property given Zimmer’s access to the underlying intellectual property associated with the OneRF Ablation System. As such, the revenue related to the license was recognized at the point in time in which the license/know-how was delivered to Zimmer which occurred in October 2024. Revenue recognized under the Amendment during the year ended September 30, 2025 was $3.0 million.

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs including stock-based compensation for personnel in functions not directly associated with research and development activities. Other significant costs include legal and litigation costs relating to corporate matters, intellectual property costs, professional fees for consultants assisting with financial and administrative matters, and sales and marketing in connection with the commercial sale of our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation Systems. We anticipate that our selling, general and administrative expenses will increase in the future to support our continued research and development activities, further commercialization of our technology, and the increased costs of operating as a public company.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities in developing our technology. Research and development expenses include compensation and benefits for research and development employees including stock-based compensation, overhead expenses, laboratory supplies, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing expenses, costs related to regulatory operations, fees paid to consultants and other outside expenses. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and costs incurred by third parties are expensed as the contracted work is performed.

Product Revenue and Product Gross Profit
Product revenue was $9.1 million during the year ended September 30, 2025 with a gross profit and gross profit percentage of $5.1 million and 56.5%, respectively. Product revenue was $3.5 million during the year ended September 30, 2024 with a gross profit and gross profit percentage of $1.1 million and 31.3%, respectively. The increase in gross profit percentage during the current period was largely due to the higher margin OneRF Ablation System being sold in the current period under the Amendment with Zimmer. Product revenue consisted primarily of sales of the OneRF Ablation System to Zimmer during the year ended September 30, 2025 while revenue consisted of Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System sales during the prior year period. The cost of product revenue consisted of the manufacturing and materials costs incurred by our third-party contract manufacturers in connection with our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System. In addition, cost of product revenue included royalty fees incurred of approximately $150,000 and $157,000 in connection with our license agreements during the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Collaborations Revenue
License revenue was $3.0 million for the year ended September 30, 2025 which related to the distribution license granted to Zimmer for the OneRF Ablation System in October 2024. No license revenue was generated from the Zimmer Amended and Restated Development Agreement during the year ended September 30, 2024.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $7.4 million and $7.9 million for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The $0.5 million decrease period over period was primarily due to a decrease in both legal fees in the amount of $0.4 million and investor relations related expense of $0.6 million, offset in part by increases in payroll related costs of approximately $0.1 million, non-legal professional fees of $0.2 million, marketing and sales costs of $0.1 million and other operating cost increases of $0.1 million on a net basis.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses were approximately $5.0 million for the year ended September 30, 2025, compared to $5.1 million for the year ended September 30, 2024. The $0.1 million decrease period over period was attributed to the net reduction in development activities associated with our Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System, given the commercialization of these products. Activity associated with new technology development largely offset the overall net decrease in research and development costs during the current period. Development activities primarily included salary-related expenses and costs related to consulting services, testing, materials and supplies.
Fair Value Change in Warrant Liability
The net change in fair value of the warrant liability during the year ended September 30, 2025 resulted in a $0.8 million benefit compared to an expense of $0.3 million during the year ended September 30, 2024. The change was due primarily to fluctuations in our common stock fair value.
Financing Costs
Financing costs during the year ended September 30, 2025 of $0.3 million consisted of the amortization of the deferred issuance costs associated with the debt facility (described further below) in the amount of $0.2 million and additional legal and loan facility termination costs of $0.1 million upon the termination of the debt facility in November 2024. In addition, $9,000 in legal fees were incurred in connection with the at-the market offering program (described further below).
Financing costs during the year ended September 30, 2024 of $0.2 million consisted of the amortization of the deferred issuance costs associated with the debt facility (described further below) in the amount of $0.1 million and issuance costs attributed to the warrants issued in connection with the 2024 Private Placement (described further below) in the amount of $0.1 million.
Other Income, net
Other income, net during the year ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 consisted principally of interest income attributed to our cash and cash equivalents.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
As of September 30, 2025, our principal source of liquidity consisted of cash and cash equivalents in the aggregate of approximately $6.6 million.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
Capital Resources
Our sources of cash and cash equivalents to date have been limited to license, collaboration and product revenues, along with proceeds from the issuances of notes with warrants, common stock with and without warrants and unsecured loans with the terms of our more recent financings described below.
April 2025 Financing
On April 4, 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Ladenburg, relating to the issuance and sale of 16,000,000 shares of our common stock, at a price to the public of $0.50. In addition, under the terms of the underwriting agreement, we granted Ladenburg an option, exercisable for 45 days, to purchase up to an additional 2,400,000 shares of common stock on the same terms as the offering, which was exercised in full. Issuance costs in connection with the April 2025 Financing amounted to approximately $1.0 million which included a 7.0% commission to the Underwriter and legal and other expenses in the amount of $0.3 million. The Company received approximately $8.2 million in net proceeds.
August 2024 Private Placement
On August 1, 2024, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain purchasers, pursuant to which we, in a private placement, agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of (i) 2,944,446 shares of our Company’s common stock (the “Shares”), par value $0.001 per share and (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,208,338 shares of common stock (the “PIPE Warrants”) at a purchase price of $0.90 per unit, consisting of one share and a PIPE Warrant to purchase 0.75 shares of common stock, resulting in total gross proceeds of approximately $2.65 million before deducting expenses. The 2024 Private Placement closed on August 2, 2024. Issuance costs attributed to the 2024 Private Placement amounted to $0.2 million.
The PIPE Warrants are exercisable beginning on the date of issuance and had an initial exercise price of $1.19 per share, subject to adjustment. In April 2025, the exercise price was reset to $0.465 upon the close of the April 2025 Financing for all of the PIPE Warrants, except for the PIPE Warrants to purchase 20,834 shares of common stock issued to a director on our Board of Directors for which the exercise price was reset to $0.876 per share. The PIPE Warrants will expire on the third anniversary of the date of issuance.
In connection with the 2024 Private Placement, we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the Shares and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants which became effective on September 13, 2024.
At-The-Market Offering
On December 21, 2022, we entered into a Capital on DemandTM Sales Agreement (“Sales Agreement”) with JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC (“JonesTrading”) to create an at-the-market offering program (“ATM Program”) under which we may offer and sell shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $14.5 million. JonesTrading is entitled to a commission at a fixed commission rate of up to 3% of the gross proceeds. On July 24, 2023, we decreased the amount of common stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement, such that we were offering up to an aggregate of $2.6 million of our common stock for sale under the Sales Agreement, including the shares of our common stock previously sold. Subsequently, on December 1, 2023, however, we increased the amount of common stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement, such that we were offering up to an aggregate of $4.8 million of our common stock for sale under the Sales Agreement, including the shares of our common stock previously sold. On January 5, 2024, we further increased the amount of common stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement, such that we are offering up to an aggregate of $9.3 million of our common stock for sale under the Sales Agreement, including the shares of common stock previously sold. On August 16, 2024, we increased the amount of common stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement by $3.0 million. On April 3, 2025, we decreased the amount of common stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement to zero. On August 15, 2025, we increased the amount of common stock that can be sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement to $6,750,000. Through September 30, 2025, we have issued 5,544,489 shares of common stock under the ATM Program for gross proceeds in the amount of $8.0 million. We incurred issuance costs in connection with the ATM Program in the amount of $0.6 million through September 30, 2025.

Debt Facility Financing
On August 2, 2024, we entered into the Debt Facility Agreement with Growth Opportunity Funding, LLC, as the Lender, which provided for a delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $3.0 million. We were permitted to borrow loans under the Debt Facility Agreement from time to time, for general corporate purposes and subject to certain specified conditions, until the earliest of: (i) November 30, 2024, (ii) the occurrence of any Monetization Event as defined in the Debt Facility Agreement or a change of control, or (iii) at the Lender’s option, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under the Debt Facility Agreement. On November 7, 2024, the Company terminated the Debt Facility Agreement, and no amounts were drawn under the Debt Facility Agreement. Total costs incurred under the debt facility financing was $0.4 million.
Funding Requirements
Certain of our cash requirements relate to the funding of our ongoing product development and commercialization operations and our milestone and royalty obligations under our intellectual property licenses with WARF and Mayo. See “Item 1—Business—Clinical Development and Regulatory Pathway—Clinical Experience, Future Development and Clinical Trial Plans” of this Report for a discussion of design, development, pre-clinical and clinical activities that we may conduct in the future, including expected cash expenditures required for some of those activities, to the extent we are able to estimate such costs.
On January 21, 2020, we entered into an Amended and Restated License Agreement (the “WARF License”) with WARF, which amended and restated in full our prior license agreement with WARF, dated October 1, 2014. Under the WARF License, we have agreed to pay WARF a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of certain of our product sales pursuant to the WARF License, with a minimum annual royalty payment of $50,000 for 2020, $100,000 for 2021 and $150,000 for 2022 and each calendar year thereafter that the WARF License is in effect. If we or any of our sublicensees contest the validity of any licensed patent, the royalty rate will be doubled during the pendency of such contest and, if the contested patent is found to be valid and would be infringed by us if not for the WARF License, the royalty rate will be tripled for the remaining term of the WARF License.
Under the Amended and Restated License and Development Agreement with Mayo (the “Mayo Development Agreement”), we have agreed to pay Mayo a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of certain of our product sales pursuant to the Mayo Development Agreement. See “Note 4 – Commitments and Contingencies” included in our financial statements included in “Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Report. for more information about the WARF License and the Mayo Development Agreement.
Our other cash requirements within the next twelve months include accounts payable, accrued expenses, purchase commitments and other current liabilities. Our other cash requirements greater than twelve months from various contractual obligations and commitments include operating leases and contracted services. Refer to “Note 4 – Commitments and Contingencies” included in our financial statements included in “Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Report for further detail of our lease obligations and the timing of expected future payments. Contracted services include agreements with third-party service providers for clinical research, product development, manufacturing, supplies, payroll services, equipment maintenance services, and audits for periods up to fiscal year 2028.
We expect to satisfy our short-term and long-term obligations through cash on hand and revenue from commercial sales to cover expenses.

Liquidity Outlook
For a discussion of potential fee payments under the Amended and Restated Zimmer Development Agreement, see “Note 7 — Zimmer Distribution Agreement and Other Product Revenue” included in our financial statements included in “Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Report. Even though we have received regulatory clearance to expand the use of our Evo sEEG electrode technology for up to 30 days, commercial sales of the sEEG electrodes and OneRF Ablation System are expected to take some time to be a significant source of liquidity. Zimmer has exclusive global rights to distribute our strip and grid cortical electrodes, depth electrodes and electrode cable assembly products. Zimmer’s failure to timely develop or commercialize these products would have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. In October 2024, we entered into an Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement with Zimmer to provide Zimmer with the exclusive right and license to distribute our OneRF Ablation System in the brain for an upfront payment of $3.0 million, with eligibility for an additional $1.0 million payment from Zimmer upon achievement of certain specified net sales milestones.
At September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents in the aggregate of approximately $6.6 million. Management has noted the existence of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Additionally, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in the report on our financial statements as of and for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, noting the existence of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our existing cash and cash equivalents may not be sufficient to fund our operating expenses through at least twelve months from the date of this filing. To continue to fund operations, we will need to secure additional funding through public or private equity or debt financing, through collaborations or partnerships with other companies, or other sources.
We may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Any failure to raise capital when needed could compromise our ability to execute on our business plan. If we are unable to raise additional funds, or if our anticipated operating results are not achieved, we believe planned expenditures may need to be reduced in order to extend the time period that existing resources can fund our operations. If we are unable to obtain the necessary capital in the future from operating results or future financing, it may have a material adverse effect on our operations and the development of our technology, or we may have to cease operations altogether.
The development and commercialization of our cortical strip, grid electrode, depth electrode, ablation system technology and future products and technology is subject to numerous uncertainties, and we could use our cash and cash equivalent resources sooner than we expect. Additionally, the process of developing medical devices is costly, and the timing of progress in pre-clinical tests and clinical trials is uncertain. Our ability to successfully transition to profitability will be dependent upon achieving further regulatory approvals and achieving a level of product sales adequate to support our cost structure. We cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable or generate positive cash flow from operating activities.
Our other cash requirements within the next twelve months include accounts payable, accrued expenses, purchase commitments and other current liabilities. Our other cash requirements greater than twelve months from various contractual obligations and commitments include operating leases and contracted services.
We expect to satisfy our short term and long term obligations through cash on hand and, until we generate an adequate level of revenue from commercial sales to cover expenses, if ever, from future equity and debt financings.

Net cash used in operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $2.8 million for the year ended September 30, 2025, which consisted of a net loss of $3.6 million partially offset principally by non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization related to intangible assets and deferred issuance costs, operating lease expense, fair value change in warrant liability totaling approximately $1.1 million in the aggregate. Our net loss was further adjusted to account for the reclassification of debt and equity facility termination costs to financing activities in the amount of $0.1 million. The net change in our net operating assets and liabilities associated with fluctuations in our operating activities resulted in a cash use of approximately $0.4 million. The net cash use stemming from the change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily attributable to an increase in our accounts receivable attributed largely to the timing of customer payments. Partially offsetting the net cash operating use during the period was a decrease in our inventory and prepaid expenses as well as a net increase in our accounts payable and accrued expenses resulting from timing of payments and fluctuations in our operations.
Net cash used in operating activities was $11.0 million for the year ended September 30, 2024, which consisted of a net loss of $12.3 million partially offset principally by non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization related to intangible assets and deferred issuance costs, operating lease expense, fair value change in warrant liability and the proceeds from the issuance of warrants in connection with the 2024 Private Placement totaling approximately $2.2 million in the aggregate. Our net loss was further adjusted to account for the reclassification of debt and equity facility termination costs to financing activities in the amount of $0.1 million. The net change in our net operating assets and liabilities associated with fluctuations in our operating activities resulted in a cash use of approximately $1.0 million. The net cash use stemming from the change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily attributable to an increase in inventory purchases and to an increases in our accounts receivable attributed largely to the timing of customer payments. Partially offsetting the net cash operating use during the period was an increase in our accounts payable and accrued expenses coupled with a decrease in prepaid expenses resulting from timing of payments and fluctuations in our operations.
Net cash used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million for each of the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 consisting of outlays for purchases of property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $8.0 million for the year ended September 30, 2025, which consisted of net proceeds from the April 2025 Financing of approximately $8.2 million and from the ATM Program in the amount of approximately $0.3 million as well as from the exercise of warrants in the amount of $0.1 million. Offsetting the net proceeds were debt facility issuance costs of $0.3 million, issuance costs paid in connection with a prior year private placement of approximately $0.2 million and as a result of the repurchases of common stock for the payment of employee taxes in the amount of $0.1 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $7.3 million for the year ended September 30, 2024, which consisted of net proceeds from the ATM Program of $4.8 million and net proceeds from the 2024 Private Placement of $2.6 million, offset partially by repurchases of common stock for the payment of employee taxes in the amount of $81,000 and debt facility issuance costs of approximately $75,000.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These accounting principles require us to make estimates and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the periods presented. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon which we rely are reasonably based upon information available to us at the time that we make these estimates and judgments. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial results will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates and judgments and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described in “Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our financial statements included in “Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Report.
Of these policies, the following are considered critical to an understanding of our financial statements included in “Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Report that require the application of the most subjective and the most complex judgments:
Revenues:
For discussion about the determination of collaborations revenue, product revenue and cost of product revenue, see “Note 7 — Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement and Other Product Revenue” included in “Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Report. To date, we have not had, nor expect to have in the future, significant variable consideration adjustments related to product revenue, such as chargebacks, sales allowances and sales returns.
Fair Value of Warrant liability
We issued warrants in connection with our August 2024 Private Placement. The warrants were classified as a liability on our balance sheet and were recorded at fair value as certain provisions precluded equity accounting treatment for these instruments. We will continue to adjust the liabilities for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise, expiration, or until such time that cash settlement or indexation provisions are no longer in effect for the warrants. For discussions about the application of fair value associated with the warrants, see “Note 9 – Stockholders’ Equity” included in “Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Report.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See “Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included in “Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Report regarding the impact of certain recent accounting pronouncements on our financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the stockholders and the board of directors of NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended September 30, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and the results of the Company’s operations and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended September 30, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 of the financial statements, the Company had recurring losses from operations and an accumulated deficit, expects to incur losses for the foreseeable future and requires additional working capital. These are the reasons that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not contain any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Valuation of warrants
Critical Audit Matter Description
As described in Note 9 to the financial statements, the Company completed a private placement offering during the year which included the issuance of warrants. Management determined the proper classification of the warrants by reviewing the terms and conditions of the issued warrants and applying the applicable accounting guidance, including Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Management concluded the warrants met the criteria for the classification as a liability. The Company determined the fair value of warrants at the date of issuance and year-end using a Monte Carlo simulation model.
We identified the assessment of the measurement of fair value of the common stock warrants as a critical audit matter. Specifically, there was a high degree of subjective auditor judgment, including the involvement of professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, due to the complex valuation methodology that incorporates several assumptions.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
| ◾ | With the assistance of firm personnel having specialized skills and knowledge, we tested the model and methodology used to calculate the fair value of the common stock warrants including an independent re-calculation. |
| ◾ | Performed audit procedures surrounding management’s assumptions utilized in the valuation model. |

NOTE 1 - Organization and Nature of Operations
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation (the “Company” or “NeuroOne”), a Delaware corporation, is a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of thin film electrode for continuous electroencephalogram (“cEEG”) and stereoelectrocencephalography (“sEEG”) recording, monitoring, ablation and brain stimulation solutions to diagnose and treat patients with epilepsy, trigeminal neuralgia, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other pain-related neurological disorders. The Company is also developing the capability to use its sEEG electrode technology to deliver drugs or gene therapy while being able to record activity before, during, and after delivery.
The Company has received 510(k) clearance from the United States (“U.S.”) Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for four of its devices: (i) its Evo cortical electrode technology for recording, monitoring, and stimulating brain tissue for up to 30 days (“Evo Cortical”), (ii) its Evo® sEEG electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain (“Evo sEEG”); (iii) its OneRF ablation system for creation of radiofrequency lesions in nervous tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures (the “OneRF Ablation System”) and (iv) our OneRF TN ablation system for use in procedures to create radiofrequency (RF) lesions for the treatment of pain, or for lesioning nerve tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures (“OneRF TN Ablation System”, together with the Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System, the “Commercialized Products”). The Company has a distribution agreement with Zimmer, Inc. (“Zimmer”) providing Zimmer with a license to commercialize and distribute the Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation System in the brain. The Company initiated a limited market release of its OneRF TN Ablation System in December 2025. The Company’s other products and indications are still under development.
The Company is based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.
Global Economic Conditions
Generally, worldwide economic conditions remain uncertain, particularly due to the conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, disruptions in the banking system and financial markets, and increased inflation. The general economic and capital market conditions both in the U.S. and worldwide, have been volatile in the past and at times have adversely affected the Company’s access to capital and increased the cost of capital. The capital and credit markets may not be available to support future capital raising activity on favorable terms or at all. If economic conditions continue to decline, the Company’s future cost of equity or debt capital and access to the capital markets could be adversely affected. The Company has experienced minor price increases from our suppliers related to tariffs on imported goods, and may experience additional price increases.
The Company’s operating results could be materially impacted by changes in the overall macroeconomic environment and other economic factors. Changes in economic conditions, supply chain constraints, logistics challenges, labor shortages, the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, disruptions in the banking system and financial markets, and steps taken by governments and central banks, have led to higher inflation, which has led to an increase in costs and has caused changes in fiscal and monetary policy, including increased interest rates.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

NOTE 2 – Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since inception, negative cash flows from operations since inception, and an accumulated deficit of $78.6 million as of September 30, 2025. To date, the Company’s revenues have not been sufficient to cover its full operating costs, and as such, it has been dependent on funding operations through the issuance of debt and sale of equity securities which previously resulted in substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $6.6 million in cash and cash equivalents. The Company believes its current available cash and cash equivalents coupled with the anticipated increase in product revenues from minimum purchases and improved gross margins under the Zimmer Amendment and forecasted operating expense reductions, will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations through September 2026. The raising of additional funds is not solely within the control of the Company. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this condition. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds, or the Company’s anticipated operating results are not achieved, management believes planned expenditures may need to be reduced in order to extend the time period that existing resources can fund the Company’s operations.
The Company intends to fund ongoing activities by utilizing its current cash and cash equivalents on hand, from product and collaborations revenue and by raising additional capital through equity or debt financing. If management is unable to obtain the necessary capital, it may have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company and the development of its technology, or the Company may have to cease operations altogether.
NOTE 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Management’s Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment Information
Operating segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and are evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer views the Company’s operations and manages its business in one operating segment. See “Note 14 – Segment Reporting”.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original contractual maturity on date of purchase of less than or equal to three months to be classified and presented as cash equivalents on the balance sheets. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents may include demand deposit accounts with large financial institutions, institutional money market funds, U.S. Treasury securities, and corporate notes and bonds. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of the financial institutions, institutional money market funds, and corporations in which the Company invests its surplus funds. The Company has experienced no credit losses from its cash and cash equivalent investments.
Revenue Recognition
The Company entered into a development and distribution agreement which has current and future revenue recognition implications. See “Note 7 – Zimmer Distribution Agreement and Other Product Revenue.”
In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under its agreements, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations based on estimated selling prices; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

Notes
to Financial Statements
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 (“ASC 606”). Performance obligations may include license rights, development services, and services associated with regulatory submission and approval processes. Significant management judgment is required to determine the level of effort required under an arrangement and the period over which the Company expects to complete its performance obligations under the arrangement. If the Company cannot reasonably estimate when its performance obligations are either completed or become inconsequential, then revenue recognition is deferred until the Company can reasonably make such estimates. Revenue is then recognized over the remaining estimated period of performance using the cumulative catch-up method.
Product Revenue
Revenues from product sales are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. At the inception of each customer contract, performance obligations are identified and the total transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations.
Cost of Product Revenue
Cost of product revenue consists of the manufacturing and materials costs incurred by the Company’s third-party contract manufacturers in connection with OneRF Ablation System (the “OneRF Products”), strip and grid cortical electrodes (the “Strip/Grid Products”), depth electrodes (“sEEG Products”) and outside supplier materials costs in connection with the electrode cable assembly products (“Electrode Cable Assembly Products”). In addition, cost of product revenue includes royalty fees incurred in connection with the Company’s license agreements as well as valuation adjustments for excess or obsolete inventory.
License Revenue
As part of the accounting for collaboration arrangements, the Company must develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation identified in the contract. The Company uses key assumptions to determine the stand-alone selling price, which may include forecasted revenues, development timelines, reimbursement rates for personnel costs, discount rates and probabilities of technical and regulatory success. The Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or service underlying each performance obligation.
Licenses of intellectual property: If the license to the Company’s intellectual property is determined to be distinct from the other performance obligations identified in the arrangement, the Company recognizes revenues from non-refundable, up-front fees allocated to the license when the license is transferred to the customer, and the customer can use and benefit from the license. For licenses that are bundled with other promises, the Company utilizes judgment to assess the nature of the combined performance obligation to determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time and, if over time, the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from non-refundable, up-front fees. The Company evaluates the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjusts the measure of performance and related revenue recognition.
Milestone payments: At the inception of each arrangement that includes milestone payments, the Company evaluates whether the milestones are considered probable of being achieved and estimates the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur, the value of the associated milestone (such as a regulatory submission) is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within the control of the Company, such as approvals from regulators, are not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. When the Company’s assessment of probability of achievement changes and variable consideration becomes probable, any additional estimated consideration is allocated to each performance obligation based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or service underlying each performance obligation and recorded in license revenues based upon when the customer obtains control of each element.
F-
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Notes
to Financial Statements
Royalties: For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on the level of sales, and the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties relate, the Company recognizes revenue at the later of (a) when the related sales occur, or (b) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).
Warrant Liability
The Company issued warrants in connection with its 2024 Private Placement. See “Note 9– Stockholders’ Equity”. The Company accounts for these warrants as a liability at fair value when warrant pricing protection provisions are not available to other common stockholders. Additionally, issuance costs associated with the warrant liability are expensed as incurred and reflected as a financing cost in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company adjusts the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the warrants for any period when pricing protections remain in place. Any future change in the fair value of the warrant liability is recognized in the statements of operations under the fair value change in the warrant liability line item.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s accounting for fair value measurements of assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring or nonrecurring basis adheres to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
| ● | Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the Company at the measurement date. |
| ● | Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. |
| ● | Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. |
As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the fair values of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses, deferred offering costs, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these assets or liabilities. The fair value of the warrant liability was based on Level 3 inputs as well as the Company’s underlying stock price and associated volatility, expected term of the warrants and market interest rates. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

There were no financial instruments measured on a non-recurring basis during the periods presented.
Intellectual Property
The Company has entered into two licensing agreements with major research institutions, which allow for access to certain patented technology and know-how. Payments under those agreements are capitalized and amortized to selling, general and administrative expense over the expected useful life of the acquired technology.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and reduced by accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. The estimated useful life for equipment and furniture ranges from three to seven years. Tangible assets acquired for research and development activities and that have alternative use are capitalized over the useful life of the acquired asset. Estimated useful lives are periodically reviewed, and, when appropriate, changes are made prospectively. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, asset lives may be adjusted and an impairment assessment may be performed on the recoverability of the carrying amounts. Maintenance and repairs are charged directly to expense as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets, which consist of licensed intellectual property, property and equipment and right-of-use assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset.
Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Credit Losses
The Company records a provision for credit losses, when appropriate, based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable supportable forecasts. In estimating the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers, among other factors, the estimate of credit losses over the remaining expected life of the asset, primarily using historical experience and current economic conditions that could affect the collectability of the balances in the future. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company believes that it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered. Actual write-offs may be in excess of the Company’s estimated allowance. The Company has not incurred any bad debt expense to date and no allowance for credit losses has been recorded during the periods presented.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out “FIFO” method) or net realizable value. The Company calculates inventory valuation adjustments for excess and obsolete inventory, when appropriate, based on current inventory levels, movement, expected useful lives, and estimated future demand of the products and spare parts. The Company’s inventory is currently comprised of our Commercialized Product components, work-in-process and finished goods. The Commercialized Products are produced by a third-party contract manufacturer and our electrode cable assembly components are obtained from outside suppliers.

Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development expenses comprise of costs incurred in performing research and development activities, including compensation and benefits for research and development employees (including stock-based compensation), overhead expenses, cost of laboratory supplies, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing expenses, costs related to regulatory operations, fees paid to consultants and other outside expenses. Non-refundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities are expensed when the activity is performed or when the goods have been received, rather than when payment is made, in accordance with ASC 730, Research and Development.
Advertising Expense
Advertising expense is charged to selling, general and administrative expenses during the period that it is incurred. Total advertising expense amounted to $165,000 and $108,993 for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs including stock-based compensation for personnel in functions not directly associated with research and development activities. Other significant costs include legal and litigation costs relating to corporate matters, intellectual property costs, professional fees for consultants assisting with financial and administrative matters, and sales and marketing in connection with the commercial sales of the Company’s products.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Accordingly, compensation costs related to equity instruments granted are recognized at the grant-date fair value over the requisite service period. The Company records forfeitures when they occur. Stock-based compensation arrangements to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with the applicable provisions of ASC 718.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax base and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Net Loss Per Share
For the Company, basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings or loss per share of common stock is computed similarly to basic earnings or loss per share except the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of any common stock equivalents, if dilutive. The Company’s warrants, stock options, and restricted stock units while outstanding are considered common stock equivalents for this purpose. Diluted earnings or loss per share of common stock is computed utilizing the treasury method for the warrants, stock options and restricted stock units. No incremental common stock equivalents were included in calculating diluted loss per share because such inclusion would be anti-dilutive given the net loss reported for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

WARF License Agreement
The Company has entered into an exclusive start-up company license agreement with the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (“WARF”) for WARF’s neural probe array and thin film micro electrode technology. The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Exclusive Start-up Company License Agreement (the “WARF License”) with WARF on January 21, 2020, which amended and restated in full the prior license agreement between WARF and NeuroOne, LLC, a predecessor of the Company, dated October 1, 2014, as amended on February 22, 2017, March 30, 2019 and September 18, 2019.
The WARF License grants to the Company an exclusive license to make, use and sell, in the United States only, products that employ certain licensed patents for a neural probe array or thin-film micro electrode array and method. The Company agreed to pay WARF a royalty equal to a single-digit percentage of our product sales pursuant to the WARF License, with a minimum annual royalty payment of $50,000 for 2020, $100,000 for 2021 and $150,000 for 2022 and each calendar year thereafter that the WARF License is in effect. If the Company or any of its sublicensees contest the validity of any licensed patent, the royalty rate will be doubled during the pendency of such contest and, if the contested patent is found to be valid and would be infringed by the Company if not for the WARF License, the royalty rate will be tripled for the remaining term of the WARF License.
WARF may terminate the WARF License on 30 days’ written notice if we default on the payments of amounts due to WARF or fail to timely submit development reports, actively pursue our development plan or breach any other covenant in the WARF License and fail to remedy such default in 90 days or in the event of certain bankruptcy events involving us. WARF may also terminate the WARF License (i) on 90 days’ notice if we had failed to have commercial sales of one or more FDA-approved products under the WARF License by June 30, 2021 or (ii) if, after royalties earned on sales begin to be paid, such earned royalties cease for more than four calendar quarters. The first commercial sale occurred on December 7, 2020, prior to the June 30, 2021 deadline. The WARF License otherwise expires by its terms on the date that no valid claims on the patents licensed thereunder remain. The Company expects the latest expiration of a licensed patent to occur in 2030. During each of the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, $150,000 in royalty fees were incurred related to the WARF License and were reflected as a component of cost of product revenue.

NOTE 7 – Zimmer Distribution Agreement and Other Product Revenue
On October 25, 2024, the Company entered into the Zimmer Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Zimmer pursuant to which the Company granted Zimmer the exclusive right and license to distribute its OneRF Ablation System for an upfront payment of $3.0 million, with eligibility for an additional $1.0 million payment from Zimmer upon achievement of certain specified net sales milestones.
The Company and Zimmer previously entered into an Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement dated July 20, 2020, related to the sEEG and Strip/Grid Product Systems, which was subsequently amended pursuant to the terms and conditions of a letter agreement dated January 6, 2021, a Second Amendment to Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement dated June 28, 2022, and a Third Amendment to Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement dated August 2, 2022 (collectively, the “EDDA”). The EDDAs executed prior to the Amendment granted Zimmer exclusive global rights to distribute the Strip/Grid Products and the Electrode Cable Assembly Products. Additionally, the Company granted Zimmer the exclusive right and license to distribute certain sEEG Products developed by the Company and together with the Strip/Grid Products and Electrode Cable Assembly Products, the “Products”. In addition, under the prior EDDAs, the Company and Zimmer agreed to collaborate with respect to development activities through a joint development committee composed of an equal number of representatives of Zimmer and the Company.

Under the Amendment, Zimmer paid the Company $3.0 million for an exclusive RF Distribution License (the “RF Distribution License” and “License”) for commercialization of its OneRF™ product. In addition, the Company is eligible to receive a future milestone payment of $1.0 million upon reaching a one-time sales volume threshold, but does not anticipate achieving this milestone.
The revised term under the Amendment (the “Term”) began on the effective date of the Amendment and will remain in effect until October 31, 2034. Upon the expiration of the Term, it may be renewed upon the mutual written consent of the parties. The Amended and Restated Exclusive Development and Distribution Agreement may be terminated before the expiration of the Term in accordance with certain terms under the Amendment. In addition, the license rights granted to Zimmer under this Amendment shall be exclusive (i) until September 30, 2032 for the sEEG Products and Strip/Grid Products; and (ii) until October 31, 2034 for the OneRF™ Product System.
License Revenue
The Amendment was accounted for under the provisions of ASC 606 as a separate contract from the prior EDDAs. In accordance with the provisions under ASC 606, the Company identified the transfer of the RF Distribution License as the sole performance obligation of the RF Distribution License. The distribution rights granted to Zimmer, inclusive of the access to the underlying intellectual property for future production of the OneRF Products if required, was found to have significant standalone functionality as no additional substantive input was required by the Company on a go forward basis. Lastly, ancillary support related to the Amendment was concluded to be a perfunctory obligation and de minimis in terms of required resources.
The transaction price associated with the Amendment was $3.0 million, which was comprised solely of the OneRF Exclusivity Fee, as defined in the Amendment, and was allocated totally to the RF Distribution License performance obligation.
Sales Volume Milestone and Payment
The sales volume milestone associated with the Amendment was determined by sales or usage-based thresholds. The sales volume milestone was accounted for under the sales milestone recognition constraint and will be accounted for as constrained variable consideration. The Company has applied the sales volume constraint to the milestone payment and will not recognize revenue until the sales volume threshold occurs.
Recognition of License Revenue
The Company determined that the RF Distribution License represented functional intellectual property given Zimmer’s access to the underlying intellectual property associated with the OneRF Products. As such, the revenue related to the licenses was recognized at the point in time in which the license/know-how was delivered to Zimmer which occurred in October 2024. Revenue recognized under the Amendment during the year ended September 30, 2025 was $3.0 million.
Product Revenue
Product revenue recognized during the year ended September 30, 2025 was $9.1 million and was comprised primarily of OneRF Ablation System revenue. The OneRF Ablation System was subject to the Amendment upon its execution in October 2024.
During the year ended September 30, 2024, product revenue related to the Company’s Evo Cortical, Evo sEEG, and OneRF Ablation Systems and amounted to $3.5 million of which $0.3 million was comprised of OneRF Products revenue. The OneRF Ablation System was not covered by the Zimmer Distribution Agreement during the year ended September 30, 2024.

On November 9, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the First Amendment to the Company’s Inducement Plan, increasing the aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to equity incentive awards under the Inducement Plan by 150,000 shares, and on May 20, 2025, the Board adopted the Second Amendment to the Company’s Inducement Plan, increasing the aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to equity incentive awards under the Inducement Plan by an additional 575,000 shares.
2017 Plan and Evergreen Provision
On January 1, 2025, 1,124,446 shares were added to the 2017 Plan as a result of the evergreen provision within the 2017 Plan. However, upon the adoption of the 2025 Plan, there will be no further issuance of grants under the 2017 Plan and any forfeitures of grants issued under the 2017 Plan will be added to the amount available for future issuance under the 2025 Plan. Grants issued under the 2017 Plan will continue to be governed under the terms of the 2017 Plan.

August 2024 Private Placement
On August 1, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company, in a private placement (the “2024 Private Placement”), agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of (i) 2,944,446 shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,208,338 shares of common stock (the “PIPE Warrants”) at a purchase price of $0.90 per unit, consisting of one share and a PIPE Warrant to purchase 0.75 shares of common stock, resulting in total gross proceeds of approximately $2.65 million before deducting expenses. Issuance costs attributed to the 2024 Private Placement amounted to approximately $0.2 million. The 2024 Private Placement closed on August 2, 2024.
The PIPE Warrants are exercisable beginning on the date of issuance and had an initial exercise price of $1.19 per share, subject to adjustment. In April 2025, the exercise price was reset to $0.465 upon the close of the April 2025 Financing for all of the PIPE Warrants, except for the PIPE Warrants to purchase 20,834 shares of common stock issued to a director on the Company’s Board of Directors for which the exercise price was reset to $0.876 per share. The PIPE Warrants will expire on the third anniversary of the date of issuance.
The PIPE Warrants were accounted for and classified as liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets given certain price reset provisions not used for a fair valuation under a fixed for fixed settlement scenario as required for equity balance sheet classification. A Monte Carlo simulation model was used to estimate the aggregate fair value of the PIPE Warrants. Input assumptions used were as follows on September 30, 2025 and 2024: risk-free interest rate 3.55% and 3.53%, respectively; expected volatility of 94.5% and 115.7%; respectively; expected life of 1.84 years and 2.84 years, respectively; and expected dividend yield zero percent for both dates. The underlying stock price used was the market price as quoted on Nasdaq as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The aggregate fair value of the PIPE Warrants of $1,813,223 upon issuance was recorded as a long term liability on the accompanying balance sheets. The Company recorded the fair value change of the PIPE Warrants in the amount of a $784,670 benefit and an expense of $327,092 to the fair value change in warrant liability line item on the accompanying statements of operations for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Notes
to Financial Statements
As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had gross deferred tax assets of approximately $20,567,000 and $19,165,000, respectively. Realization of the deferred assets is primarily dependent upon future taxable income, if any, the amount and timing of which are uncertain. The Company has had significant pre-tax losses since its inception. The Company has not yet generated revenues from sales to the level of becoming profitable. Accordingly, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance of approximately $20,475,000 and $19,028,000 as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Net deferred tax assets will continue to require a valuation allowance until the Company can demonstrate their realizability through sustained profitability or another source of income.
As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s federal net operating loss carryforwards were approximately $49,207,000 and $47,958,000, respectively. The Company had federal research credit carryforwards as of September 30, 2025 and 2024 of approximately $1,523,000 and $1,304,000, respectively. The federal net operating loss incurred prior to January 1, 2018 and tax credit carryforwards will begin to expire in 2036 if not utilized. Federal net operating losses incurred after December 31, 2017 will not expire. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $49,415,000 and $48,030,000, respectively. The Company had state research credit carryforwards of approximately $886,000 and $747,000 as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The state net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2031, if not utilized, and the state research credit carryforwards will begin to expire in 2032 if not utilized.
Utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards and credits may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. Generally, in addition to certain entity reorganizations, the limitation applies when one or more “5-percent shareholders” increase their ownership, in the aggregate, by more than 50 percentage points over a 36-month testing period or beginning the day after the most recent ownership change, if shorter. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses and credits before utilization.
In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), specifically related to uncertain tax positions, a Company is required to use a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax positions for the years ended September 30 is as follows:
| 2025 | 2024 | |||||||
| Unrecognized tax positions, beginning of year | $ | 284,068 | $ | 231,968 | ||||
Gross increase, current year tax positions |
49,314 | 52,100 | ||||||
| Unrecognized tax positions, end of year | $ | 333,382 | $ | 284,068 | ||||
If recognized, none of the unrecognized tax positions would impact the Company’s income tax benefit or effective tax rate as long as the Company’s net deferred tax assets remain subject to a full valuation allowance. The Company does not expect any significant increases or decreases to the Company’s unrecognized tax positions within the next 12 months.
In accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes guidance, the Company has adopted a policy under which, if required to be recognized in the future, interest related to the underpayment of income taxes will be classified as a component of interest expense and any related penalties will be classified in operating expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
The Company has tax filing obligations in the following jurisdictions: U.S. federal, Minnesota and California. The income tax returns since 2022 are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities.

NOTE 13 - Defined Contribution Plan
The Company has a 401(k) defined contribution plan (the “401K Plan”) for all employees age 21 and older. Employees can defer up to 100% of their compensation through payroll withholdings into the 401K Plan subject to federal law limits. The Company may match 100% of deferrals up to 3% of one’s contributions. The Company’s matching contributions to employee deferrals are discretionary. The Company may also make discretionary profit sharing contributions under the 401K Plan in the future, but it has not done so through September 30, 2025.
Employee contributions and any employer matching contributions made to satisfy certain non-discrimination tests required by the Internal Revenue Code are 100% vested upon contribution. Discretionary employer matches to employee deferrals vest over a six year period beginning on the second anniversary of an employee’s date of hire. Discretionary profit sharing contributions vest over a five year period beginning on the first anniversary of an employee’s date of hire. The Company made contributions in the amount of $31,105 and zero to the 401K Plan during the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
NOTE 14 – Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the CODM in deciding how to allocate resources in assessing performance. The Company has one reportable segment, which is the business of development and commercialization of products related to comprehensive neuromodulation cEEG and sEEG recording, monitoring, ablation, and stimulation solutions (“Neuromodulation Products”). NeuroOne is a medical technology company focused on developing and commercializing Neuromodulation Products. The Company recognizes the Neuromodulation Products as one reporting segment.
The accounting policies of the Neuromodulation Products segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The CODM assesses performance for the Neuromodulation Products segment based on net loss, which is reported on the statement of operations as net loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets. The Company does not have any intra-entity sales or transfers.
The CODM uses cash forecast models in deciding how to invest into the Neuromodulation Products segment. Such cash forecast models are reviewed to assess the entity-wide operating results and performance. Net loss is used to monitor budget versus actual results. Monitoring budgeted versus actual results is used in assessing performance of the segment and in establishing management’s compensation.
The statements of operations below are inclusive of the significant expense categories regularly reviewed by the CODM for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Not applicable.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) which are controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit 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 our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of September 30, 2025, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2025 due to the material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting as discussed further below. Notwithstanding this material weakness, our management has concluded that the financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and Board of Directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, recognizes that our internal control over financial reporting cannot prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. 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. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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.
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
FORM 10-K
Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2025, the end of our fiscal year. Management based its assessment on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2025 due to the material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting as discussed further below.
Material Weakness
The Company identified a material weakness related to insufficient segregation of duties within its accounting and financial reporting functions. Specifically, due to the Company’s limited accounting personnel and organizational structure, certain individuals had the ability to initiate, process, record, and review financial transactions, as well as prepare and post journal entries, without adequate independent review.
This material weakness resulted in an increased risk that errors or misstatements in the Company’s financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
However, after giving full consideration to the material weakness, and the additional analyses and other procedures that we performed to ensure that our financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, our management has concluded that our financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods disclosed in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Remediation Plans
Management has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. The remediation actions include:
| ● | Enhancing policies and procedures to retain adequate documentary evidence for certain management review controls over certain business processes including precision of review and evidence of review procedures performed to demonstrate effective operation of such controls; |
| ● | Segregating key functions within our financial processes supporting our internal controls over financial reporting; and |
| ● | Continuing to enhance and formalize our accounting, business operations, procedures, and controls to achieve complete, accurate, and timely financial accounting, reporting and disclosures. |
The material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls have operated for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that the controls are effective.
Exemption from Attestation Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
This Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only Management’s report because we are a non-accelerated filer.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, none of our directors or executive officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) adopted or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” as defined in Item 408(c) of Regulation S-K.

Exhibit 19.1
NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation
Insider Trading Compliance Policy
Effective June 20, 2025
This Insider Trading Compliance Policy (this “Policy”) consists of four sections:
Section I provides an overview; Section II sets forth the policies of NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) prohibiting insider trading; Section III explains insider trading; and Section IV consists of various procedures which have been put in place by the Company to prevent insider trading.
| I. | SUMMARY. |
Preventing insider trading is necessary to comply with securities laws and to preserve the reputation and integrity of the Company as well as that of all persons affiliated with it. “Insider trading” occurs when any person purchases or sells a security while in possession of inside information relating to the security. A “trade” as referenced in this Policy generally refers to purchases, sales or gifts. As explained in Section III below, “inside information” is information which is considered to be both “material” and “non-public.” Insider trading is a crime and the penalties for violating the law include imprisonment, disgorgement of profits, civil fines of up to three (3) times the profit gained or loss avoided, and criminal fines of up to $5,000,000 for individuals and $25,000,000 for entities. Insider trading is also prohibited by this Policy and could result in serious sanctions, including dismissal.
This Policy applies to all officers, directors and employees of the Company and extends to all activities within and outside an individual’s duties at the Company. This Policy also applies to any consultant or contractor to the Company that receives or has access to material, non-public information regarding the Company (each such consultant or contractor, including such consultant’s or contractor’s representatives and agents, a “Subject Contractor”). Every officer, director, employee and Subject Contractor must review and adhere to this Policy. The Company has appointed the General Counsel as the Company’s Insider Trading Compliance Officer (the “Compliance Officer”). The Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for oversight of this Policy. The Compliance Officer is responsible for monitoring and updating this Policy, presenting any material updates to the Policy to the Audit Committee for approval, and providing a report, at least once annually, to the Audit Committee regarding his or her monitoring of this Policy. Questions regarding the Policy should be directed to the Compliance Officer.
| II. | STATEMENT OF POLICIES PROHIBITING INSIDER TRADING. |
A. No officer, director, employee or Subject Contractor shall purchase or sell any type of security while in possession of material, non-public information relating to the security, whether the issuer of such security is the Company or any other company. The Company is also prohibited from trading in securities of the Company in violation of applicable securities laws or stock exchange listing standards.

| Insider Trading Compliance Policy | Page |
B. Additionally, except as set forth in Section II.D. below and except for transactions effected under an approved Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan as described in Section V below, no officer, director, employee or Subject Contractor shall purchase or sell any security of the Company during the period beginning on the last “trading day” of the fiscal quarter and ending one (1) full “trading day” after the public release of the Company’s quarterly/annual report whether or not the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees or Subject Contractors is in possession of material, non-public information (the “Black-Out Period”). For the purposes of this Policy, a “trading day” shall mean a day on which the Nasdaq Stock Market is open for trading. Further, from time to time, and upon prior notice to the persons affected, the Company may impose event-specific “Black-Out Periods” during which some or all of the Company’s executive officers and directors will be prohibited from trading in the Company’s securities.
C. No officer, director, employee or Subject Contractor shall directly or indirectly tip material, non-public information to anyone while in possession of such information. In addition, material, non-public information should not be communicated to anyone outside the Company under any circumstances (absent prior approval by the Compliance Officer and execution of an appropriate confidentiality agreement), or to anyone within the Company other than on a need-to- know basis.
D. This Policy does not apply in the case of the following transactions under Company plans, except as set forth under Section IV.D. (Pre-Clearance) and except as otherwise specifically noted:
| 1. | This Policy does not apply to the exercise of stock options or the vesting of restricted stock units or restricted stock, in each case granted under Company’s equity compensation plans. This Policy does apply, however, to any sale of the Company’s common stock (“Company Stock”) as part of a broker-assisted cashless option exercise, or any other market sale of the Company Stock received upon exercise or vesting of any equity award, whether or not for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price of a stock option or to pay taxes. In addition, for purposes of this Policy, the Company considers sell-to-cover transactions solely for the purpose of paying withholding taxes upon the vesting and delivery of restricted stock units to be exempt from this Policy if such sale is required by the Company in accordance with the terms of the equity award and not upon the directive of the employee. |
| 2. | This Policy does not apply to the surrender of shares directly to the Company to satisfy tax withholding obligations as a result of the issuance of shares upon vesting or exercise of restricted stock units, stock options or other equity awards granted under the Company’s equity compensation plans. Of course, any market sale of the Company Stock received upon exercise or vesting of any such equity awards remains subject to all provisions of this Policy, whether or not for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price or pay taxes. |
| 3. | This Policy does not apply to acquisition of Company Stock on periodic designated dates in accordance with the Company’s Non-Employee Directors’ Compensation Policy (the “Directors’ Compensation Policy”). This Policy does apply, however, to a director’s election to receive Company Stock in lieu of cash compensation under the Directors’ Compensation Policy. Accordingly, such elections may not be effected during a Black-Out Period or when a director is otherwise in possession of material, non- public information relating to the Company or any of its securities. |
E. This Policy continues to apply to transactions in the Company’s securities made by the Company’s officers, directors and employees, even after such person’s employment or directorship with the Company has terminated. If any such person is in possession of material non-public information when their relationship with the Company concludes, they may not trade in the Company’s securities until the information has been publicly disseminated or is no longer material.

| III. | EXPLANATION OF INSIDER TRADING. |
As noted above, “insider trading” refers to the purchase or sale of a security while in possession of “material,” “non-public” information relating to the security. “Securities” include not only stocks, bonds, notes and debentures, but also stock options, warrants and similar instruments. “Purchase” and “sale” are defined broadly under the federal securities laws. “Purchase” includes not only the actual purchase of a security, but any contract to purchase or otherwise acquire a security. “Sale” includes not only the actual sale of a security, but any contract to sell or otherwise dispose of a security. These definitions extend to a broad range of transactions including conventional cash-for-stock transactions, conversions, the grant and exercise of stock options and acquisitions and exercises of warrants or puts, calls or other options related to a security. It is generally understood that insider trading includes the following:
| ● | Trading by insiders while in possession of material, non-public information; |
| ● | Trading by persons other than insiders while in possession of material, non-public information where the information either was given in breach of an insider’s fiduciary duty to keep it confidential or was misappropriated; or |
| ● | Communicating or tipping material, non-public information to others, including recommending the purchase or sale of a security while in possession of such information. |
A. What Information is Material?
Information is considered “material” if there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider it important, as part of the total mix of available information, in making a decision to buy, sell or hold a security or where the information is likely to have a significant effect on the market price of the security. Material information can be positive or negative and can relate to virtually any aspect of a company’s business or to any type of security, debt or equity.
Examples of material information include (but are not limited to):
| ● | Regulatory approvals and significant discussions with the U.S. Federal Drug Administration; |
| ● | Significant safety incidents; |
| ● | Internal financial information which departs in any way from what the market would expect; |
| ● | Changes in sales, earnings or dividends; |
| ● | An important financing transaction; |
| ● | Major transactions with other companies or entities, such as joint ventures, collaboration agreements or licensing agreements; |
| NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation | ||
| Insider Trading Compliance Policy | Page |
| ● | Stock splits or other transactions relating to the Company’s securities; |
| ● | Major management changes; |
| ● | Sales or purchases by the Company of its own securities; |
| ● | Major litigation or regulatory development; |
| ● | Mergers, tender offers or acquisitions of other companies, or major purchases or sales of assets; and |
| ● | A major cybersecurity incident. |
Note that this list is merely illustrative and not exhaustive. A good general rule of thumb: when in doubt, do not trade.
B. What is Non-Public?
Information is “non-public” if it has not yet been disclosed generally to the marketplace. In order for information to be considered public, it must be widely disseminated in a manner making it generally available to investors through such media as Dow Jones, Reuters, The Wall Street Journal, Business Wire, Globe Newswire, Associated Press, PR Newswire or United Press International or filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The circulation of rumors, even if accurate and reported in the media, does not constitute effective public dissemination.
In addition, even after a public announcement, a reasonable period of time must lapse in order for the market to react to the information.
C. Who is an Insider?
“Insiders” include officers, directors and employees of a company and anyone else who has material inside information about a company, including Subject Contractors. All officers, directors, employees and Subject Contractors of the Company should consider themselves insiders with respect to material, non-public information about the Company’s business, activities and securities. Officers, directors, employees and Subject Contractors may not trade the Company’s securities while in possession of material, non-public information relating to the Company nor tip (or communicate except on a need-to-know basis) such information to others.
It should be noted that trading by members of an insider’s household can be the responsibility of such insider under certain circumstances and could give rise to legal and Company-imposed sanctions.
D. Trading by Persons Other than Insiders.
Insiders may be liable for communicating or tipping material, non-public information to a third party (a “tippee”), and insider trading violations are not limited to trading or tipping by insiders. Persons other than insiders also can be liable for insider trading, including tippees who trade on material, non-public information tipped to them or individuals who trade on material, non- public information which has been misappropriated.
Tippees inherit an insider’s duties and are liable for trading on material, non-public information illegally tipped to them by an insider. Similarly, just as insiders are liable for the insider trading of their tippees, so are tippees who pass the information along to others who trade. In other words, a tippee’s liability for insider trading is no different from that of an insider. Tippees can obtain material, non-public information by receiving overt tips from others or through, among other things, conversations at social, business or other gatherings.

| Insider Trading Compliance Policy | Page |
E. Penalties for Engaging in Insider Trading.
Penalties for trading on or tipping material, non-public information can extend significantly beyond any profits made or losses avoided, both for individuals engaging in such unlawful conduct and their employers. The SEC and the Department of Justice have made the civil and criminal prosecution of insider trading violations a top priority. Enforcement remedies available to the government or private plaintiffs under the federal securities laws include:
| ● | SEC administrative sanctions; |
| ● | Securities industry self-regulatory organization sanctions; |
| ● | Civil injunctions; |
| ● | Damage awards to private plaintiffs; |
| ● | Disgorgement of all profits; |
| ● | Civil fines for the violator of up to three (3) times the amount of profit gained or loss avoided; |
| ● | Civil fines for the employer or other controlling person of a violator (i.e., where the violator is an employee or other controlled person) of up to the greater of $1,000,000 or three (3) times the amount of profit gained or loss avoided by the violator; |
| ● | Criminal fines for individual violators of up to $5,000,000 ($25,000,000 for an entity); and |
| ● | Jail sentences of up to twenty (20) years. |
In addition, insider trading could result in serious sanctions by the Company, including dismissal. Insider trading violations are not limited to violations of the federal securities laws. Other federal and state civil or criminal laws, such as the laws prohibiting mail and wire fraud and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, also may be violated upon the occurrence of insider trading.
F. Examples of Insider Trading.
Examples of insider trading cases include actions brought against: corporate officers, directors and employees who traded a company’s securities after learning of significant confidential corporate developments; friends, business associates, family members and other tippees of such officers, directors and employees who traded the securities after receiving such information; government employees who learned of such information in the course of their employment; and other persons who misappropriated, and took advantage of, confidential information from their employers.

The following are illustrations of insider trading violations. These illustrations are hypothetical and are not comprehensive, and, consequently, are not intended to reflect the actual activities or business of the Company or any other entity.
Trading by Insider
An officer of X Corporation learns that earnings to be reported by X Corporation will increase dramatically. Prior to the public announcement of such earnings, the officer purchases X Corporation’s stock. The officer, an insider, is liable for all profits as well as penalties of up to three (3) times the amount of all profits. The officer also is subject to, among other things, criminal prosecution, including up to $5,000,000 in additional fines and twenty (20) years in jail. Depending upon the circumstances, X Corporation and the individual to whom the officer reports also could be liable as controlling persons.
Trading by Tippee
An officer of X Corporation tells a friend that X Corporation is about to publicly announce that it has concluded an agreement for a major acquisition. This tip causes the friend to purchase X Corporation’s stock in advance of the announcement. The officer is jointly liable with his friend for all of the friend’s profits and each is liable for all penalties of up to three (3) times the amount of the friend’s profits. In addition, the officer and his friend are subject to, among other things, criminal prosecution, as described above.
G. Insider Reporting Requirements, Short-Swing Profits and Short Sales.
Officers and directors subject to the reporting obligations under Section 16 of the Exchange Act should take care not to violate the prohibition on short-swing trading (Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act) and the restrictions on sales by control persons (Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), and should file all appropriate Section 16(a) reports (Forms 3, 4 and 5), and any notices of sale required by Rule 144.
Section 16(c) of the 1934 Act absolutely prohibits insiders from making short sales of the Company’s Stock, i.e., sales of shares which the insider does not own at the time of sale or sales of the Company’s Stock against which the insider does not deliver the shares within twenty (20) days after the sale. Under certain circumstances, the purchase or sale of put or call options, or the writing of such options, can result in a violation of Section 16(c). Insiders violating Section 16(c) face criminal liability.
The Compliance Officer should be consulted if you have any questions regarding reporting obligations, short-swing profits or short sales under Section 16.
| IV. | STATEMENT OF PROCEDURES PREVENTING INSIDER TRADING. |
The following procedures have been established, and will be maintained and enforced, by the Company to prevent insider trading. Every officer, director, employee and Subject Contractor is required to follow these procedures.
A. Pre-Clearance of Trades by Officers, Directors, Employees and Subject Contractors.
To provide assistance in preventing inadvertent violations of applicable securities laws and to avoid the appearance of impropriety in connection with the purchase and sale of the Company securities, except as set forth in the paragraph below, all transactions in Company securities (including without limitation, acquisitions and dispositions of the Company’s Stock, the exercise of stock options, the sale of the Company’s Stock issued upon the exercise of stock options or the vesting of restricted stock units or restricted stock) by officers, directors, employees and Subject Contractors must be pre-cleared by the Compliance Officer. A request for pre-clearance should be submitted to the Compliance Officer at least two (2) business days in advance of the proposed transaction.
| NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation | ||
| Insider Trading Compliance Policy | Page |
Additionally, except as set forth in Section II.D. above, neither the Company nor any of its officers, directors, employees or Subject Contractors may trade in any securities of the Company during the Black-Out Period, unless authorized by the Compliance Officer. Also, please consult the “Insider Trading Reminders” attached hereto as Attachment A.
The requirement for pre-clearance as set forth in the above paragraph does not apply to the following transactions:
| ● | the vesting of restricted stock units or restricted stock; |
| ● | sell-to-cover transactions solely for the purpose of paying withholding taxes upon the vesting and delivery of restricted stock units, if such sale is required by the Company in accordance with the terms of the equity award and not upon the directive of the employee; |
| ● | purchases of Company Stock under on periodic designated dates in accordance with the Directors’ Compensation Policy; and |
| ● | transactions effected under an approved Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan as set forth in Section V below. |
All other transactions in Company securities, including the exercise of stock options, are subject to preclearance as set forth in the above paragraph. A request for pre-clearance must be made in writing, preferably by submission of a completed Request for Pre-Clearance in the form of Attachment B to this Policy. Pre-cleared transactions should be effected promptly. Requestors are required to refresh the request for pre-clearance if a pre-cleared transaction is not effected within five business days after pre-clearance is received.
Furthermore, requestors must immediately notify the Chief Compliance Officer following the execution of any transaction.
B. Avoidance of Certain Aggressive or Speculative Trading.
Officers, directors, employees and Subject Contractors, and their respective family members (including spouses, minor children or any other family members living in the same household), as applicable, may not directly or indirectly participate in transactions involving trading activities which by their aggressive or speculative nature cause or even give the appearance of an impropriety, such as, for example, those listed in Nos. 1 and 2 below. If you are uncertain whether your proposed transaction may implicate these prohibitions, please contact the Compliance Officer for pre-approval.
| 1. | PROHIBITION OF SPECULATIVE TRADING/HEDGING. All directors, officers, employees and Subject Contractors are prohibited from engaging in short sales; transactions in put or call options, hedging or monetization transactions; or other inherently speculative transactions with respect to the securities of the Company at any time. |
| 2. | PROHIBITION ON PLEDGING. All directors, officers, employees and Subject Contractors are prohibited from holding any securities of the Company in a margin account or otherwise pledging any securities of the Company as collateral for any loan. |

| V. | RULE 10B5-1 TRADING PLANS. |
A. Overview.
SEC Rule 10b5-1 (“Rule 10b5-1”) protects directors, officers and employees from insider trading liability under Rule 10b5-1 for transactions under a previously established contract, plan or instruction to trade the Company’s Stock (a “Trading Plan”) entered into in good faith (and acted on in good faith for the duration of the Trading Plan) and in accordance with the terms of Rule 10b5-1 of the 1934 Act and all applicable state laws and shall be exempt from the trading restrictions set forth in the Policy. The initiation of, and any modification to, any such Trading Plan will be deemed to be a transaction in the Company’s securities and such initiation or modification is subject to all limitations and prohibitions of transactions involving the Company’s securities. Each such Trading Plan, and any modification thereof, or termination, shall be submitted to and pre-approved by the Compliance Officer, or such other person as the Company’s Board of Directors may designate from time to time (the “Authorizing Officer”), who may impose such conditions on the implementation and operation of the Trading Plan as the Authorizing Officer deems necessary or advisable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Authorizing Officer may prescribe certain forms of Trading Plans to which each Trading Plan must conform. The Authorizing Officer may also require that Trading Plans be arranged with a specified broker. However, compliance of the Trading Plan to the terms of Rule 10b5-1 and the execution of transactions pursuant to the Trading Plan are the sole responsibility of the person initiating the Trading Plan, not the Company or the Authorizing Officer.
Rule 10b5-1 presents an opportunity for insiders to establish arrangements to trade in the Company’s Stock without the restrictions of windows and blackout periods even when there is undisclosed material information (subject to the cooling-off period described below). A Trading Plan might also help reduce negative publicity that may result when key executives sell the Company’s Stock. Rule 10b5-1 only provides an “affirmative defense” in the event there is an insider-trading lawsuit. It does not prevent someone from bringing a lawsuit.
A director, officer and employee may enter into a Trading Plan that outlines a pre-set plan for trading of the Company’s Stock, including the exercise of stock options only when he or she is not in possession of material, non-public information, and only during an open trading window period outside of the Black-Out Period and cooling-off period described below. Although transactions effected under a Trading Plan will not require further pre-clearance at the time of the trade, any transaction (including the quantity and price) made pursuant to a Trading Plan of a Section 16 reporting person must be reported to the Company promptly on the day of each trade to permit the Company’s Section 16 filing coordinator to assist in the preparation and filing of a required Form 4. Form 4 and Form 5 filers must also indicate by checkbox if a reported transaction was made under a plan that is intended to satisfy the “affirmative defense” conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) and the date of the adoption of such plan.
Prohibition Against Multiple, Overlapping Plans
A director, officer or employee may only enter into one Trading Plan at a time.
| NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation | ||
| Insider Trading Compliance Policy | Page |
Director and Officer Representations
Directors and officers must include a representation in their Trading Plan certifying, at the time of the adoption of a new or modified Trading Plan, that: (1) they are not aware of material nonpublic information about the Company or its securities; and (2) they are adopting the plan in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the prohibitions of Rule 10b-5.
Cooling-Off Period
Trades pursuant to a Trading Plan made by an executive officer or director may occur at any time, subject to the following waiting period, whichever is later, (i) a 90 day waiting period after the adoption or material modification of the Trading Plan during which time no transactions under the Trading Plan can be made; or (ii) two business days following the Company’s disclosure of financial results in in a Form 10-Q, Form 10-K, or Form 8-K for the fiscal quarter during which the plan was adopted or materially modified (in any event, subject to a maximum cooling-off period of 120 days following a plan adoption or modification) before any trading can commence under the adopted or modified Trading Plan.
Trades pursuant to a Trading Plan made by employees that are non-executive officers may occur at any time, subject to a 30 day waiting period after the adoption or material modification of the Trading Plan, during which time no transactions under the Trading Plan can be made.
Trading Plan modifications that do not change the sales or purchase prices or price ranges, the amount of securities to be sold or purchased, or the timing of transactions under a Trading Plan (such as an adjustment for stock splits or a change in account information) will not trigger a new cooling-off period.
Please review the following description of how a Trading Plan works.
Pursuant to Rule 10b5-1, an individual’s purchase or sale of securities will not be “on the basis of” material non-public information if:
| ● | First, before becoming aware of the information, the individual enters into a binding contract to purchase or sell the securities, provides instructions to another person to sell the securities or adopts a written plan for trading the securities in good faith (i.e., the Trading Plan). |
| ● | Second, the Trading Plan must either: |
| ○ | specify the amount of securities to be purchased or sold, the price at which the securities are to be purchased or sold and the date on which the securities are to be purchased or sold; |
| ○ | include a written formula or computer program for determining the amount, price and date of the transactions; or |
| ○ | prohibit the individual from exercising any subsequent influence over the purchase or sale of the Company’s Stock under the Trading Plan in question. |
| ● | Third, the purchase or sale must occur pursuant to the Trading Plan and the individual must not enter into a corresponding hedging transaction or alter or deviate from the Trading Plan. |
| NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation | ||
| Insider Trading Compliance Policy | Page |
B. Revocation/Amendments to Trading Plans.
Revocation of Trading Plans (which includes terminations of Trading Plans) should occur only in unusual circumstances, and the effectiveness of any revocation of a Trading Plan will be subject to the prior review and approval of the Authorizing Officer. If an individual revokes a Trading Plan, then the individual may not enter into a new Trading Plan until thirty (30) days after termination of the Trading Plan or such longer period as the Authorizing Officer may determine in his or her discretion. Such new Trading Plan can be executed only when the individual is not in possession of material non-public information, and during a trading window period outside of a Black-Out Period. In addition, transactions pursuant to such new Trading Plan will be subject to the respective cooling-off period.
Each Trading Plan must contain provisions allowing the Company to revoke or suspend a Trading Plan. Circumstances under which Trading Plans may be revoked or suspended include the announcement of a merger or the occurrence of an event that would cause the transaction either to violate applicable law or to have an adverse effect on the Company. The Authorizing Officer or administrator of the Company’s stock plans is authorized to notify the applicable broker in such circumstances.
Amendments to Trading Plans, which for these purposes would include any modifications to or voluntary suspensions of Trading Plans, should be made in only very limited circumstances and should be avoided if possible. Any amendment to a Trading Plan will be subject to the prior review and approval of the Authorizing Officer. Any amendment to a Trading Plan can be effected only when the individual is not in possession of material non-public information, and during a trading window period outside of a Black-Out Period. In addition, transactions pursuant to such amended Trading Plan will be subject to the respective cooling-off period (or such longer period as the Authorizing Officer may determine in his or her discretion) during which time no transactions under the amended Trading Plan can be made.
C. Discretionary Plans.
Discretionary Trading Plans, where the discretion or control over trading is transferred to a broker, are permitted if (i) pre-approved by the Authorizing Officer, (ii) the officer, director, or employee may not exercise influence over the broker’s trading decisions and (iii) the broker may not be in possession of any Company material non-public information.
The Authorizing Officer of the Company must pre-approve any Trading Plan, arrangement or trading instructions, etc., involving potential sales or purchases of the Company’s Stock or stock option exercises, including but not limited to, blind trusts, or limit orders. The actual transactions effected pursuant to a pre-approved Trading Plan will not be subject to further pre-clearance for transactions in the Company’s Stock once the Trading Plan or other arrangement has been pre-approved.
D. Trades Outside of a Trading Plan.
During an open window, trades which differ from Trading Plan instructions that are already in place are allowed as long as the Trading Plan continues to be followed.
The Trading Plans do not exempt the Section 16 reporting person from the Section 16 six (6) month short-swing profit rules or liability.

| Insider Trading Compliance Policy | Page |
E. Disclosures.
F. The Company will make required SEC disclosures regarding the adoption, material modification and termination of Trading Plans and regarding the Company’s insider trading policies and procedures. Policy Takes Precedence.
In the event of any conflict between this Policy and any Trading Plan, this Policy shall control, to the extent the Trading Plan would permit activities otherwise prohibited by this Policy.
| VI. | EXECUTION AND RETURN OF CERTIFICATION OF COMPLIANCE. |
After reading this policy statement all officers, directors, employees and Subject Contractors should execute and return to a Compliance Officer the applicable Certification of Compliance form attached hereto as Attachment C, Attachment D or Attachment E.

Attachment A
INSIDER TRADING REMINDERS
Before engaging in any transaction in the Company’s securities, please read the following:
Both the federal securities laws and the Company’s policy prohibit transactions in the Company’s securities at a time when you may be in possession of material information about the Company which has not been publicly disclosed. This also applies to members of your household as well as all others whose transactions may be attributable to you.
Material information, in short, is any information which could affect the price of the securities. Either positive or negative information may be material. Once a public announcement has been made, you should wait until the information has been made available to the public for at least twenty-four (24) hours before engaging in any transaction.
Except as set forth in Section II.D. of our Insider Trading Compliance Policy and except for transactions effected under an approved Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan as described in Section V of our Insider Trading Compliance Policy, neither the Company nor any of its officers, directors, employees or Subject Contractors may trade in any securities of the Company during the period beginning on the last trading day of the fiscal quarter and ending one (1) full trading day after the public release of earnings data or quarterly/annual report whether or not the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees or Subject Contractors is in possession of material, non-public information, unless authorized by the Compliance Officer.
Important: All transactions by officers, directors, employees and Subject Contractors must be pre-cleared with the Compliance Officer, except as specifically noted in Section IV.D. of our Insider Trading Compliance Policy.
For further information and guidance, please refer to our Insider Trading Compliance Policy and do not hesitate to contact the Compliance Officer.
