Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and use of estimates
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of VolitionRx Limited (the “Company” or “VolitionRx”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The December 31, 2025 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2026 (the “Annual Report”). The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those audited consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.
The preparation of the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make certain estimates and the assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include impairment of long-lived assets, accounts receivable, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of stock-based awards, income taxes, fair value measurements of warrant and derivative liabilities, debt discounts, and going concern assessments among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s judgment. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes in accounting estimates may be necessary if there are changes in the circumstances or experiences on which the estimate was based or as a result of new information. Changes in estimates, including those resulting from changes in the economic environment, are reflected in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all applicable new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. The Company does not believe that there are any other applicable new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Fair Value Measurements
Pursuant to ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The financial instruments of the Company consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, debt, a warrant liability and derivative liabilities. The carrying amounts of these items are considered Level 1 due to their short-term nature and their market interest rates, except for the warrant liability and derivative liabilities, which are considered Level 2 and are recorded at fair value at the end of each reporting period.
Included in the following table are the Company’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Loss on change in fair value of derivative liability
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. For all periods presented, basic and diluted net loss per share and weighted average shares outstanding have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split described above. As of March 31, 2026, 3,848,805 potential common shares equivalents from warrants, options, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) were excluded from the diluted EPS calculations as their effect is anti-dilutive.
Reverse stock split
In April 2026, following stockholder approval, the Company effected a one-for-twenty reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On April 27, 2026, the Company filed a Certificate of Third Amendment to its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect the Reverse Stock Split, which became effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on April 28, 2026. The Company’s common stock began trading on a post-split basis on April 28, 2026. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every twenty shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were automatically converted into one share of common stock. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split, and each stockholder who otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share received one whole share of common stock in lieu of such fractional share. Accordingly, all share and per-share amounts for all periods presented in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. In addition, all outstanding equity awards, warrants, convertible notes and other equity securities and instruments outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split have been proportionately adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split, to the extent required by their respective terms.
Note 2 – Liquidity and Going Concern Assessment
The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. Management assesses liquidity and going concern uncertainty in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements to determine whether there is sufficient cash on hand and working capital, including available borrowings under financing arrangements, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date the financial statements are issued, which is referred to as the “look-forward period,” as defined in GAAP. As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to management, management considered various scenarios, forecasts, projections, estimates and made certain key assumptions, including the timing and nature of projected cash expenditures or programs, its ability to delay or curtail expenditures or programs, its expected debt service and convertible note repayment obligations, and its ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, among other factors.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $6.7 million and used cash flows in operating activities of $5.3 million. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3.1 million and an accumulated deficit of $259.6 million. As of March 31, 2026, the Company also had a stockholders’ deficit of $33.4 million and current liabilities of $13.6 million, including current portions of debt and convertible note obligation.
Subsequent to March 31, 2026, and through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $0.6 million from sales of common stock under its at-the-market offering program. See Note 9, Subsequent Events.
The Company has generated operating losses and has experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception. The Company has not generated significant revenues and expects to incur further losses in the future, particularly from continued development of its clinical-stage diagnostic tests and commercialization activities. The future of the Company as an operating business will depend on its ability to obtain sufficient capital through equity or debt financings, licensing or distribution arrangements, or other strategic transactions and/or generate revenues as may be required to sustain its operations. Management plans to address the above as needed by (a) granting licenses and/or distribution rights to third parties in exchange for specified up-front milestones, royalty, or other payments, (b) obtaining additional financing through debt or equity transactions, (c) securing additional grant funds, and (d) developing and commercializing its products in an efficient manner. Management continues to exercise tight cost controls to conserve cash. As part of the Company’s cash conservation efforts, directors and certain employees have elected to exchange a portion of their fees earned or paid in cash or salary, respectively, for RSUs in the Company for a period of up to six months.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and to eventually attain profitable operations.
Management assessed the mitigating effect of these plans to determine if it is probable that the plans would be effectively implemented within one year after the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued and when implemented, would mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These plans are subject to market conditions and reliance on third parties, and there is no assurance that effective implementation of the Company’s plans will result in the necessary funding to continue current operations and satisfy current and expected debt obligations. The Company has implemented short-term cash preservation and cost-saving initiatives to conserve cash. Although the Company has raised additional capital subsequent to March 31, 2026, management expects that additional funding will be required to continue current operations and satisfy current and expected obligations during the look-forward period. The Company concluded that these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and their carrying amounts, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

2026 Equity Capital Raise
On January 7, 2026, the Company entered into an amended and restated securities purchase agreement (the “Amended SPA”) with Lind Global Asset Management XII LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Lind”). Under the Amended SPA, the Company received $2,000,000 in funding from Lind in exchange for the issuance to Lind of a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2,400,000 (the “2026 Lind Note”) and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of 350,018 shares of our common stock at a price of $11.428 per share, subject to adjustment, and exercisable for five years (the “2026 Lind Warrant” and, together with the 2026 Lind Note, the “2026 Securities”). As additional consideration to Lind, the Company paid a commitment fee in the amount of $70,000, which was paid by deduction from the funding received by the Company. The Amended SPA contains customary representations and warranties of the Company and Lind, indemnification obligations of the Company, termination provisions, and other obligations and rights of the parties.
As previously reported, on May 15, 2025, the Company and Lind entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Original SPA”) pursuant to which the Company issued to Lind a senior secured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $7,500,000 (the “2025 Lind Note”) and a common stock purchase warrant to purchase 651,042 shares of common stock at a price of $13.40 per share, subject to adjustment, and exercisable for five years (collectively, the “2025 Securities”). The Amended SPA amends and restates the Original SPA to provide for the sale and issuance of the 2026 Securities, which issuance and sale is in addition to the previous issuance and sale of the 2025 Securities.
The 2026 Lind Note, which does not accrue interest, is repayable in 18 consecutive monthly installments in the amount of $133,333 beginning six months from the issuance date. While the 2026 Lind Note is outstanding, Lind may elect with respect to no more than two monthly payments to increase the amount of such monthly payment up to $1,000,000 upon notice to the Company. The monthly payments due under the 2026 Lind Note may be made by the issuance of common stock valued at the Repayment Share Price (as defined below), cash in an amount equal to 1.05 times the required payment amount, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. The “Repayment Share Price” is defined in the 2026 Lind Note as 90% of the average of the five lowest daily volume weighted average prices of one share of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading days prior to the payment date. The 2026 Lind Note sets forth certain conditions that must be satisfied before the Company may make any monthly payments in shares of common stock.
The 2026 Lind Note may be converted by Lind from time to time at a price of $11.428 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Conversion Price”), or an aggregate of 210,011 shares based upon the initial principal amount and the Conversion Price. The dollar amount of any conversions by Lind will be applied toward upcoming Lind Note payments in reverse chronological order. The 2026 Lind Note may be prepaid in whole upon written notice on any business day following 30 days after the earlier to occur of (i) the resale registration statement for the shares underlying the 2026 Lind Note being declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission or (ii) the date that the shares issued pursuant to conversion of the 2026 Lind Note may be immediately resold under Rule 144 without restriction on the number of shares to be sold or the manner of sale; but in the event of a prepayment notice, Lind may convert up to one-third of principal amount due at the lesser of the Repayment Share Price or the Conversion Price.
Issuance of shares of common stock upon repayment or conversion of the 2026 Lind Note (the “Note Shares”) and upon exercise of the 2026 Lind Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”) is subject to an ownership limitation equal to 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock; provided, that if Lind and its affiliates beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, then such limitation shall automatically increase to 9.99% so long as Lind and its affiliates own in excess of 4.99% of such common stock (and shall, for the avoidance of doubt, automatically decrease to 4.99% upon Lind and its affiliates ceasing to own in excess of 4.99% of such common stock).
2026 Equity Capital Raise (continued)
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined in the 2026 Lind Note), the 2026 Lind Note will become immediately due and payable and the Company must pay Lind an amount equal to 120% of the then outstanding principal amount of the Note, subject to a reduction to 110% in certain circumstances, in addition to any other remedies under the 2026 Lind Note or the other transaction documents. Events of Default include, among others, failure of the Company to make any Note payment when due, a default in any indebtedness or adverse judgments in excess of threshold amounts, the failure of the Company to instruct its transfer agent to issue unlegended certificates in certain circumstances, the Company’s shares of common stock no longer being publicly traded or listed on a national securities exchange, any stop order or trading suspension restricting the trading in the Company’s common stock for a specified period, the announcement or consummation of a Change of Control (as defined in the Amended SPA), the failure to file reports or filings required by the SEC, and the Company’s market capitalization falling below a threshold amount for a specified period, each as defined in the 2026 Lind Note.
The 2026 Lind Note contains certain negative covenants, including restricting the Company from certain distributions, stock repurchases, borrowing, sale of assets, loans and exchange offers. Additionally, unless waived by Lind, the Company shall be required to utilize a portion of the proceeds from certain specified debt or equity transactions and asset sales to repay the outstanding principal amount due under the 2026 Lind Note.
2025 Equity Capital Raise
On March 24, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with the several purchasers, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to such purchasers, in a registered direct offering pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-259783) declared effective by the SEC on November 8, 2021 (the “2021 Form S-3”), an aggregate of (i) 118,182 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain of its directors and executive officers, and certain of its existing stockholders (collectively, the “Insiders”) at an offering price of $11.00 per share (the “Insider Shares”), and (ii) 86,954 shares of common stock (the “March 2025 Warrant Investor Shares” and, together with the Insider Shares, the “March 2025 Shares”), together with common stock purchase warrants to purchase up to 86,954 shares of common stock (the “March 2025 Warrants”), at a combined offering price of $11.00 per March 2025 Warrant Investor Share and accompanying March 2025 Warrant, to certain other existing stockholders of the Company and new investors (collectively, the “Warrant Investors”).

The net proceeds received by the Company for the issuance and sale of the March 2025 Shares and the March 2025 Warrants were $2.3 million, before deducting offering expenses of $0.1 million paid by the Company. The net proceeds above exclude any proceeds arising from the exercise of the March 2025 Warrants. The shares of common stock underlying the March 2025 Warrants were initially registered pursuant to the 2021 Form S-3. The shares of common stock underlying the March 2025 Warrants were subsequently registered pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-286401) declared effective by SEC on April 15, 2025 (the “2025 Form S-1”) and were withdrawn from the 2021 Form S-3.

f) Convertible Notes Payable
On May 15, 2025, the Company entered into the Original SPA with Lind, pursuant to which the Company issued the 2025 Lind Note in the principal amount of $7,500,000 and a common stock purchase warrant for the purchase of up to 651,042 shares of common stock (the “2025 Lind Warrant” and, together with the 2025 Lind Note, the “2025 Securities”).
The 2025 Lind Note, which does not accrue interest, is repayable in 18 consecutive monthly installments in the amount of $416,666 beginning six months from the issuance date. Lind may elect with respect to no more than two (2) monthly payments to increase the amount of such monthly payment up to $1,000,000 upon notice to the Company. The monthly payments due under the 2025 Lind Note may be made by the issuance of common stock valued at the Repayment Share Price (as defined in the 2025 Lind Note), cash in an amount equal to 1.05 times the required payment amount, or a combination of cash and shares. The 2025 Lind Note sets forth certain conditions that must be satisfied before we may make any monthly payments in shares of common stock.
The 2025 Lind Note may be converted by Lind from time to time at the Conversion Price (as defined in the 2025 Lind Note). The dollar amount of any conversions by Lind will be applied toward upcoming 2025 Lind Note payments in reverse chronological order. The 2025 Lind Note may be prepaid in whole upon written notice on any business day following August 13, 2025; but in the event of a prepayment notice, Lind may convert up to one-third of the principal amount due at the lesser of the Repayment Share Price or the Conversion Price.
f) Convertible Notes Payable (continued)
Issuance of shares of common stock upon repayment or conversion of the 2025 Lind Note or the 2026 Lind Note (collectively, the “Note Shares”) and upon exercise of the 2025 Lind Warrant or the 2026 Lind Warrant (collectively, the “Warrant Shares”) is subject to an ownership limitation equal to 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock; provided, that if Lind and its affiliates beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, then such limitation shall automatically increase to 9.99% so long as Lind and its affiliates own in excess of 4.99% of such common stock (and shall, for the avoidance of doubt, automatically decrease to 4.99% upon Lind and its affiliates ceasing to own in excess of 4.99% of such common stock).
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined in the 2025 Lind Note or the 2026 Lind Note, as applicable), the applicable note will become immediately due and payable and the Company must pay Lind an amount equal to 120% of the then outstanding principal amount of the applicable note, subject to a reduction to 110% in certain circumstances, in addition to any other remedies under the applicable note or the other transaction documents. Events of Default include, among others, failure of the Company to make any note payment when due, a default in any indebtedness or adverse judgments in excess of threshold amounts, the failure of the Company to instruct its transfer agent to issue unlegended certificates in certain circumstances, the Company’s shares of common stock no longer being publicly traded or listed on a national securities exchange, any stop order or trading suspension restricting the trading in the Company’s common stock for a specified period, the announcement or consummation of a Change of Control (as defined in the Original SPA or Amended SPA, as applicable), the failure to file reports or filings required by the SEC, and the Company’s market capitalization falling below a threshold amount for a specified period, each as described in the applicable note.
The 2025 Lind Note and 2026 Lind Note contain certain negative covenants, including restricting the Company from certain distributions, stock repurchases, borrowing, sale of assets, loans and exchange offers. Additionally, unless waived by Lind, the Company is required to utilize a portion of the net proceeds from certain specified debt or equity transactions and asset sales to repay the outstanding principal amount due under the applicable note.
As described in Note 6 – Common Stock, on January 7, 2026, the Company entered into the Amended SPA with Lind, pursuant to which the Company issued the 2026 Lind Note in the principal amount of $2,400,000 and the 2026 Lind Warrant for the purchase of up to 350,018 shares of common stock. The Company received net proceeds of $1,755,000 after the original issue discount and debt issuance costs.
The Company evaluated the embedded features within the convertible notes in accordance with ASC Topic 480 and ASC Topic 815. The Company determined that the embedded features, specifically (i) the default penalty on outstanding principal, and (ii) the default conversion option into common shares at 90% of the lowest volume weighted average price for the common shares on the Company’s VWAP in the three days preceding conversion, constitute derivative liabilities. These features, arising from default provisions, including the contingent default penalty (deemed redemption) and the contingent variable conversion feature, meet the definition of a derivative and do not qualify for derivative accounting exemptions. Consequently, these embedded features were bifurcated from the debt host as derivative liabilities.
The initial fair value of the derivative liabilities was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model, considering various potential outcomes and scenarios. The model used the following assumptions: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 91.48%; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 4.23%; (iv) simulated term of 2.0 years; (v) estimated fair value of the common shares of $5.832 per share; and (vi) various probability assumptions. The 2026 Lind Note initial fair value of the embedded derivative liability was $385,300. The January 2026 Lind Warrant was determined to be equity-classified under ASC 815-40 and was recorded at its initial fair value of $1,297,500. The original issue discount of $400,000, debt issuance costs of $245,000, and the allocated fair values of both the embedded derivative liability and the January 2026 Lind Warrant resulted in a total debt discount of $1,646,152 at issuance.
f) Convertible Note Payable (continued)
Subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in the statement of operations for each reporting period. The issuance costs for the convertible notes, along with the allocated fair values of both the 2025 Lind Warrant and 2026 Lind Warrant and the bifurcated embedded derivative liabilities, were collectively treated as a debt discount. The debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the term of the applicable note using the effective interest method.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company issued shares of common stock to Lind in repayment of amounts due under the 2025 Lind Note. See Note 6 – Common Stock, for additional information regarding shares issued during the period in repayment of the Company’s convertible notes.
Estimated future minimum principal payments of the 2025 Lind Note for the next five years consist of the following as of March 31, 2026.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Report and in our Annual Report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that are based on our current expectations and reflect our plans, estimates and anticipated future financial performance. These statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this Report and in our Annual Report, as well as our other public filings with the SEC. Please refer to the section of this Report entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information.
Overview
Imagine a world where diseases like cancer and sepsis can be diagnosed early and monitored easily using routine blood tests. That’s the world Volition is trying to build by developing its innovative family of simple, easy to use, cost-effective blood tests.
Volition is a multi-national epigenetics company. It has patented technologies that use chromosomal structures, such as nucleosomes, and transcription factors such as biomarkers in cancer and other diseases. The tests in the Company’s product portfolio detect certain characteristic changes that occur from the earliest stages of disease, enabling early detection and offering a better way to monitor disease progression and a patient’s response to treatment.
The tests offered by Volition and its subsidiaries are designed to detect and monitor a range of life-altering diseases, including certain cancers and diseases associated with NETosis, such as sepsis. Early diagnosis and monitoring have the potential to not only prolong the life of patients but also improve their quality of life.
We have several key pillars of focus:
Commercialization Strategy
We are guided by three underlying principles to our commercialization strategy – ensuring our products:
The principles above inform our overall commercialization strategy for our products, which is driven by the following:
There are several routes to market, including (1) licensing, (2) leveraging our existing CE-marked Nu.Q® NETs test, and (3) rolling out the Nu.Q® Lung cancer test:
1. Licensing
We are partnering with established diagnostic companies and liquid biopsy companies to market, sell, and process our tests, leveraging their networks and expertise. In the human space we have agreements with Werfen, Hologic and Revvity. In the veterinary space, we have agreements with Antech, IDEXX and Fujifilm Vet Systems, as well as a number of country-specific distributors.
We believe, that given the global prevalence of cancer and diseases associated with NETosis, and the low-cost, accessible and routine nature of our tests, subject to clinical validation, regulatory authorization, and successful commercialization, our tests have the potential for use throughout the world.
We aim to remain an IP powerhouse in the epigenetic space and expect to monetize our IP and technologies through licensing and distribution contracts with companies that have established distribution networks and expertise on a worldwide or regional basis, in both human and animal care across platforms (centralized labs and point-of-care / in-house diagnostics).
Human
In September 2025, we signed a Research License and Exclusive Commercial Option Rights Agreement for Antiphospholipid Syndrome, or APS, with Werfen, a global leader in the field of in specialized diagnostics for hemostasis, thrombosis and other NETs-related indications. Full terms of the agreement are confidential, but Werfen will gain access to the components of Volition's proprietary Nu.Q® H3.1 NETs assay and will investigate its clinical utility in the management of APS patients on its platforms. Werfen also has an option to negotiate terms with Volition for it to launch the product commercially under an exclusive license.
Also in September 2025, Volition signed an agreement with Hologic Diagenode (NASDAQ: HOLX), or Hologic, for the co-marketing of Volition's Nu.Q® Discover service. Under the agreement, Hologic will co-market Nu.Q® Discover services with Hologic customers for an initial one-year term. If successful, the aim is for Hologic to be appointed as an exclusive provider of those services, subject to further agreed upon terms. The intention of this agreement is to expand customer access to our proprietary Nu.Q® Discover assays.
We are in active discussions at various stages with approximately ten leading diagnostics and liquid biopsy companies for both Nu.Q® and Capture-Seq™, including ongoing technology evaluations, however, such discussions may or may not result in executed agreements.
Veterinary
On March 28, 2022, Volition entered into a master license and product supply agreement with Heska, now an Antech Company. In exchange for granting Heska exclusive worldwide rights to sell our Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test at the point of care for companion animals, Volition received a $10.0 million upfront payment upon signing, received a $13.0 million payment based upon the achievement of two milestones and is eligible to receive up to an additional $5.0 million payment based upon the achievement of a final milestone upon the earlier of the first commercial sale by or on behalf of Heska of a screening or monitoring test for lymphoma in felines, or the nine-month anniversary of the first peer-reviewed paper evidencing clinical utility for the screening or monitoring of lymphoma in felines being published in any one of a number of periodicals identified by the parties. In addition, Volition has granted Heska non-exclusive rights to sell the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test in kit format for companion animals through Heska’s network of central reference laboratories.
We also entered into a licensing and supply agreement with IDEXX in October 2022. This contract provides worldwide customer reach through IDEXX’s global reference laboratory network as we continue to commercialize our transformational Nu.Q® technology within the companion animal healthcare sector and capitalize on the significant opportunities available. IDEXX launched the IDEXX Nu.Q® Canine Cancer Test in January 2023.
In November 2023, we launched the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test in the UK and Ireland through our distributor, the Veterinary Pathology Group, and in the UK through Nationwide Laboratories. In July 2024, we launched the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test in Japan with Fujifilm Vet Systems. As of March 31, 2026, the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test is available in over twenty countries.
In March 2025, we signed first ever Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test Automation Agreement with Fujifilm Vet Systems to include Volition's ChLIA version of the test via the Immunodiagnostic Systems, or IDS, i10® automated analyzer platform, for a new five year initial term. Fujifilm Vet Systems will be the first in the world to utilize this centralized lab automation for the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test which will enable a more rapid turnaround and high throughput to meet increasing demands.
2. Leverage our existing CE-marked Nu.Q® NETs test
The second prong of our strategy is to leverage our granted CE mark, which has been approved in the EU for any NETs related diseases. Our ChLIA version of the CE-marked Nu.Q® NETs Test is via the IDS-i10TM automated analyzer platform from Immunodiagnostic Systems, a subsidiary of Revvity. Our aim is to sell this product, either directly or in conjunction with Immunodiagnostic Systems, to institutions for use in the wide range of clinical applications where NETosis plays a critical role. In a significant commercial milestone, we recorded our first revenue from sales of our CE-Marked Nu.Q® NETs automated product in Europe in the first quarter of 2025. This is the first revenue generated from a regulated clinically approved product. As of March 31, 2026, we have 12 hospital clients evaluating our Nu.Q® NETs test for a range of diseases.
In collaboration with Revvity, we aim to submit a reimbursement application for the Nu.Q® NETs test in 2026.
3. Roll-out the Nu.Q® Lung Cancer test
In the fourth quarter of 2025, we received our first order for the Nu.Q® Cancer assays for clinical certification ahead of routine clinical use in lung cancer and in January 2026 were delighted to announce that preparation of the reimbursement submission is underway, actively supported by the Hospices Civils de Lyon, France's second largest university hospital system and two other French institutions. Reimbursement will be a major milestone for Volition in the commercialization and licensing of Nu.Q® in the human cancer field. Once achieved, we anticipate the introduction into routine clinical use in France by the fourth quarter of 2026.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have financed our operations since inception primarily through private placements and public offerings of our common stock. As of March 31, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3.1 million.
Net cash used in operating activities was $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, respectively. The increase in cash used in operating activities for the period ended March 31, 2026 when compared to the same period in 2025 can be attributed to increased expenditure on clinical trials.
Net cash used in investing activities was $9,214 and $1,808 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively. The small increase was due to a purchase of laboratory equipment in the period ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and net cash used in financing activities was $3.7 million for the comparable period ended March 31, 2025. The increase in cash provided by financing activities for the period ended March 31, 2026 when compared to same period in 2025 was primarily due to $1.9 million from the Lind note, before deducting offering expenses of $0.1 million. This is compared to $2.4 million in cash, before deducting offering expenses of $0.1 million, from the issuance and sale of shares of common stock and warrants in a registered direct offering that closed in March 2025 and $5.5 million in net cash received from the issuance of shares of common stock under our “at-the-market” facility during the period ended March 31, 2026 compared to $0.3 million in net cash received from the issuance of shares of common stock under our “at-the-market” facility during the period ended March 31, 2025.
For additional information on our “at the market facility,” and the March 2025 registered direct offering, refer to Note 6, Common Stock – Equity Distribution Agreement and – 2025 Equity Capital Raise, of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included within this Report.
The following table summarizes our approximate contractual payments due by year as of March 31, 2026.

Convertible Notes
We intend to use our cash reserves to predominantly fund further research and development, and commercialization activities. We do not have any substantial source of revenues and expect to rely on additional future financing, through the sale of licensing or distribution rights, grant funding and the sale of equity or debt securities to provide sufficient funding to execute our strategic plan. There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising further funds.
In the event additional financing is delayed, we will prioritize the completion of clinical validation studies for the purpose of the sale of licensing or distribution rights, and the maintenance of our patent rights. In the event of an ongoing lack of financing, it may be necessary to discontinue operations, which will adversely affect the value of our common stock.
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive activities. For these reasons, our auditors included in their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, an explanatory paragraph regarding factors that raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
For additional information regarding our going concern assessment, refer to Note 2, Liquidity and Going Concern Assessment, of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included within this Report.

Our operations are transitioning from a research and development stage to a commercialization stage. Revenues during the three-months ended March 31, 2026 were $1.0 million, compared with $0.2 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2025. The main source of revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 was product revenues from sales of the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test and the Nu.Q® Discover kits. The year on year increase was primarily driven by an increase in deferred revenue recognition for the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Test related to the Heska agreement. This resulted from a catch-up of deferred revenue recognition of approximately $0.7 million in the period, reflecting an updated forecast in line with our accounting policy. Services revenue related solely to Nu.Q® Discover services.
Total operating expenses increased to $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as a result of the factors described below.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses increased to $2.9 million from $2.6 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. This increase was primarily related to direct research and development expenses including our lung cancer studies in Taiwan and France. The number of full-time equivalent, or FTE, personnel we employed in this division decreased by 10 to 42 compared to the prior year period.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased to $2.6 million from $2.2 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. The increase is due to higher legal and professional fees and other general and administrative costs mainly related to financing activities, partly offset by decreased personnel and stock-based compensation during the period. The FTE personnel number within this division decreased by 4 to 15 compared to the prior year period.

Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses marginally decreased to $0.9 million from $0.9 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to lower personnel expenses, partially offset by increased direct marketing and professional fees during the period. The FTE personnel number within this division decreased by 1 to 10 compared to the prior year period.

Other Income (Expenses)
For the three-months ended March 31, 2026, the Company’s other expense was $1.4 million compared to other income of $0.0 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2025. This increase in other expenses was due to non-cash accounting charges for amortization of debt discount and loss on extinguishment of debt related to the Lind convertible note during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026.
For the three-months ended March 31, 2026, the Company’s net loss was $6.7 million, a increase of approximately $1.2 million in comparison to a net loss of $5.5 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2025. The change was a result of the factors described above.
Going Concern
We have not attained profitable operations on an ongoing basis and are dependent upon obtaining external financing to continue to pursue our operational and strategic plans. For these reasons, management has determined that there is substantial doubt that the business will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There have been no material changes to our off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Future Financings
We may seek to obtain additional capital through the sale of debt or equity securities if we deem it desirable or necessary. These sales may include the sale of equity securities from time to time through an “at the market offering program” under our Capital On DemandTM Sales Agreement with Jones Trading Institutional Services, LLC, see Note 6, Common Stock – 2025 ATM Sales Agreement of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included within this Report. However, we may be unable to obtain such additional capital when needed, or on terms favorable to us or our stockholders, if at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution, or such equity securities may provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, the terms of such securities may place restrictions on our ability to operate our business.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
We also regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, borrowing rate used in operating lease right-of-use asset and liability valuations, impairment analysis of intangible assets, valuations of stock-based compensation, valuation of warrant and derivative liabilities and deferred revenue.
We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experiences, information from third party professionals and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations could be affected.
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and key estimates and assumptions disclosed in the section titled “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in Part II, Item 7 within our Annual Report.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to disclose this information.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or 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 Principal Executive and Principal Financial Officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of 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). Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded, as they previously concluded as of December 31, 2025, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026, because of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as referenced below and described in detail in our Annual Report.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. In particular we do not have sufficient written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures, including written policies and procedures to ensure the correct application of accounting and financial reporting with respect to the current requirements of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.
Notwithstanding the material weakness, we believe that our financial statements contained in this Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in this Report in accordance with GAAP.
Planned Remediation of Material Weakness
Our management, with the oversight of our audit committee, has initiated steps and plans to take additional measures to remediate the underlying causes of the material weakness, which we currently believe will be primarily through revising precision level management review controls and gaining additional assurance regarding our outside service providers’ quality control procedures. It is possible that we may determine that additional remediation steps will be necessary in the future.
Our management has been actively engaged in developing and implementing remediation plans to address material weakness described above. These remediation efforts are ongoing and include or are expected to include:
We continue to enhance corporate oversight over process-level controls and structures to ensure that there is appropriate assignment of authority, responsibility, and accountability to enable remediation of our material weakness. We believe that our remediation plan will be sufficient to remediate the identified material weakness and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. As we continue to evaluate, and work to improve, our internal control over financial reporting, management may determine that additional measures to address control deficiencies or modifications to the remediation plan are necessary.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for the ongoing remediation of the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting noted above, no changes in our internal control over financial reporting were made during the three months ended March 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations of the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls
Our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.
The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving our stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of business, we may be subject to claims, counter claims, lawsuits and other litigation of the type that generally arise from the conduct of our business. We are not aware of any material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which our directors, officers or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholders, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
