Current report
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we began a strategic shift in our business to prioritize digital asset treasury management and investment in the digital asset ecosystem, specifically the Canton Network. As described in Item 1, from 2022 through late 2025, we primarily operated as a biotechnology company developing therapeutic candidates in inflammatory and immunologic conditions. In November 2025, we undertook a strategic shift to prioritize a disciplined digital asset treasury strategy.
Current report
In connection with this shift, in November 2025 we completed a private placement offering, strengthening our liquidity and supporting our digital asset treasury strategy. Concurrently, we entered into an at-the-market equity program and established a shelf registration statement. In January 2026, we completed a registered direct offering of common stock and pre-funded warrants, further strengthening our capital position.
Current report
Our digital asset treasury strategy is centered on acquiring, holding and deploying Canton Coin (“CC”) and supporting the Canton Network through validator operations, application support and ecosystem participation.
Current report
Our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 reflect our two reportable segments: legacy biotechnology operations, and our digital asset treasury strategy initiated in November 2025. See Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional segment financial performance information.
Current report
Unrealized Loss from Digital Asset Holdings
Current report
The unrealized gain (loss) from digital assets holdings represents the change in fair value of our digital assets. We use a USD/CC reference price from a crypto market data provider for purposes of periodic fair value remeasurement.
Current report
The table below summarizes by program our research and development expenses for the periods presented:
Current report
Interest income decreased by approximately $0.2 million, or 83%, to less than $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $0.3 million for year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to the decrease in cash during 2025 and a decrease in interest rates.
Current report
Unrealized Loss from Digital Assets Holdings
Current report
Unrealized loss from digital assets holdings increased to $22.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $0 for year ended December 31, 2024. This was the result of the contribution of digital assets from the Cryptocurrency Offering in November 2025 and subsequent digital asset purchases, where the reference price of CC as of December 31, 2025 was less than the weighted average cost of our CC holdings.
Current report
During the year ended December 31, 2024, we sold 203,359 shares of our common stock pursuant to the 2024 ATM Agreement for net proceeds of approximately $0.3 million, after deducting commissions of $15,506 and other offering fees of $41,952. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we sold 1,657,799 shares of our common stock pursuant to the 2025 ATM Agreement for net proceeds of approximately $5.1 million, after deducting commissions of approximately $0.1 million.
Current report
In addition, on July 23, 2025 and August 26, 2025, we closed registered direct public offerings (the “July 2025 Direct Offering” and the “August 2025 Direct Offering”) with certain investors, consisting of shares of our common stock and/or pre-funded warrants to acquire shares of our common stock and common warrants to acquire shares of our common stock, with combined net proceeds of approximately $6.3 million.
Current report
In November 2025, we closed the Cash Offering for net proceeds of approximately $90.9 million in cash and the Cryptocurrency Offering for net proceeds of approximately $446.2 million in cryptocurrency.
Current report
In the prior reporting period, we identified certain conditions that raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These conditions included our limited operating history, recurring operating losses, and recurring negative cash flows from operations as described above. However, on November 3, 2025, we raised net proceeds of over $537 million through a private placement offering. As a result, we believe we now have sufficient liquidity to fund anticipated cash requirements for operations and working capital purposes through at least March 2027. As a result, the previously disclosed going concern uncertainty language has been removed as substantial doubt no longer exists regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
Current report
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Current report
Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $77.6 million, representing the purchase of digital assets. There were no cash flows from investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Current report
Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $107.2 million. The net increase in financing activities was due to proceeds from the Cash Offering of $99.4 million, proceeds from the PIPE offerings of $3.7 million, proceeds from the registered direct public offerings of $7.1 million, proceeds from the ATM offerings of $5.5 million, proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $1.5 million and proceeds from option exercises of $0.2 million. These increases were offset by payments of deferred offering and other issuance costs of $10.0 million and repayment of note payable of $0.2 million.
Current report
Digital Assets
Current report
We account for digital assets, which are comprised of CC, as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-60,Intangibles—Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets. Our digital assets are initially recorded at cost. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with the gain or loss associated with remeasurement of the digital assets recognized in net income (loss) during each reporting period. Upon disposal of a digital asset (e.g., by sale, exchange or transfer), we derecognize the asset and recognize a realized gain or loss in net income, calculated as the difference between the sale proceeds and the asset’s carrying amount.
Current report
The fair value of the digital assets is determined based on the quoted price in its principal market at the time of measurement. We determine its principal market as the market that it has access to and has the greatest volume and level or orderly transactions in accordance with FASB ASC 820,Fair Value Measurement. We track the cost of its digital assets using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method.

Tharimmune is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapeutic candidates in immunology and inflammation with high unmet need. On November 3, 2023, we entered into a patent license agreement (the “Avior License Agreement”) with Avior Inc. d/b/a Avior Bio, LLC (“Avior”) pursuant to which we received an exclusive sublicensable right and license to Licensed Patent Rights and Licensed Technology to, among other things, Develop, have Developed, make, have made, use, sell, import, export and commercialize TH104 and TH103 and to practice the Licensed Technology in connection with the foregoing, throughout the world, each as defined in the Avior License Agreement. In February 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved an investigational new drug (“IND”) application for TH104. TH104 has a dual mechanism of action by affecting multiple receptors, known to suppress chronic, debilitating pruritus or “uncontrollable itching.” With respect to TH104, we intend to first seek approval for the treatment of moderate-to-severe chronic pruritus in patients with primary biliary cholangitis (“PBC”), an orphan rare form of liver disease with no known cure in which more than 70% of patients suffer from debilitating chronic pruritic. We expect to obtain topline data from a Phase 2 trial in TH104 in Q4 2025 and with respect to TH103, we intend to develop the product candidate and potentially file an IND.
Previous report
On September 11, 2024, we entered into a Patent License Agreement (the “Intract Agreement”) with Intract Pharma Limited (“Intract”), pursuant to which, we exclusively licensed INT-023/TH023, an oral anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α) monoclonal antibody infliximab. Infliximab is a purified, recombinant DNA-derived chimeric IgG monoclonal antibody protein that contains both murine and human components that inhibit tumor TNF-α. Under the terms of the Intract Agreement, we licensed global development and commercialization rights (outside of South Korea) to Intract’s Soteria® and Phloral® delivery platform along with an existing supply agreement for infliximab to be used in the oral product development program.
Previous report
We are also developing an early-stage pipeline of novel therapeutic candidates targeting validated high value immuno-oncology (“IO”) targets including human epidermal growth factor (“EGF”) receptor 2 (“HER2”), human EGF receptor 3 (“HER3”) and programmed cell death protein 1 (“PD-1”). We are developing antibodies including bispecific antibodies, antibody drug conjugates (“ADCs”) and small molecular weight bovine-derived Picobodies™ or antibody “knob” domains which have the potential to target and bind more tightly to “undruggable” epitopes better than full sized antibodies. We are advancing HS3215, a bispecific against both HER2 and HER3 antibody which targets a novel “bridging epitope” encompassing multiple domains of the HER2 extracellular domain (“ECD”) as well as ligand-dependent and independent blocking of the ECD of HER3 into IND-enabling studies in 2025. In addition, we anticipate that HS0059, a HER2/HER3 bispecific ADC (“bsADC”), and HS1940, a PD-1 Picobody, will progress to enter IND-enabling studies in 2025.

On June 7, 2024, we entered into an at-the-market offering agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with Rodman & Renshaw LLC (the “ATM Sales Manager”) under which we may sell, from time to time through the ATM Sales Manager, shares of common stock in one or more offerings up to a total dollar amount of $1.65 million. Sales of shares of our common stock through the ATM Sales Manager, if any, will be made by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at-the-market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including without limitation sales made directly on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC or any other existing trading market for the common shares. Our common stock is being offered and sold pursuant to the effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and an accompanying prospectus declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 24, 2023, and pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated June 7, 2024.
Previous report
On June 10, 2024, we reported positive results from our Phase 1 clinical trial with TH104. Results from healthy subjects demonstrated consistent pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles across buccal and intravenous routes of administration with a comparable safety and tolerability profile between routes of administration. This Phase 1 trial was a single-dose, single-center, open-label, randomized 2-way crossover study comparing 16 mg of TH104 with 1 mg intravenous nalmefene administered under fasting conditions, with a 7-day washout period between doses. Twenty healthy subjects were enrolled to complete both doses of the crossover design. All 20 subjects completed TH104 buccal dosing, while 19 of 20 subjects also completed the intravenous dosing. The primary objective was to evaluate the absolute bioavailability of TH104, as well as to assess safety and tolerability. Findings from the study indicated that the primary endpoint of the study which was absolute bioavailability (F) of TH104, or fraction (or percentage) of the administered dose absorbed into the systemic circulation compared to an equivalent intravenous dose of nalmefene, was 0.459 (45.9%). The median time to maximum concentration (Cmax) of TH104 was 2.0 hours, and mean half-life (T 1/2) as measured in the blood of subjects was 14 hours after a single buccal administration of TH104, compared to 9 hours for the 1mg intravenous dose of nalmefene. These data were consistent and within range of previous findings of nalmefene in the literature and the Company believes PK results from this Phase 1 trial show proportional kinetics consistent with published findings of oral and intravenous formulations, suggesting TH104 could be developed for once-daily dosing in a target population of moderate-to-severe chronic pruritus in PBC patients. The Phase 1 trial also demonstrated that a 16mg dose of TH104 had a comparable safety and tolerability profile to the FDA-approved 1mg dose of nalmefene intravenous formulation. Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) in this study were reported in 8 subjects (40.0%) in the TH104 group and 7 subjects (36.8%) in the intravenous group. All reported TEAEs were considered mild in severity. The most frequently reported TEAE for both TH104 and intravenous treatments was dizziness (4 subjects in the TH104 group; 7 subjects in the intravenous group). TEAEs reported in at least 2 subjects in any treatment group were nausea (3 subjects in each group) and somnolence (3 subjects in each group). There were no serious adverse events reported during this study. No subjects discontinued the study due to adverse events. No subjects exhibited abnormal results for the visual examinations of the buccal mucosa pre- or post-dosing with TH104 buccal film.
Previous report
On June 17, 2024, we reported positive Type C meeting feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for our Phase 2 clinical trial with TH104, confirming our plan to pursue a 505(b)(2) approval pathway, which permits inclusion of data from external studies when the active ingredient is already approved in the United States. The FDA also agreed that the nonclinical studies submitted to the FDA in advance of the meeting appear sufficient to support the proposed Phase 2 clinical trial. In addition, the FDA provided feedback on study design and certain recommendations regarding PBC patient inclusion, the primary endpoint to assess pruritus in these patients, and considerations for monitoring for adverse events in this patient population. Based on this interaction, in early 2025, we began start up activities in preparation for the Phase 2 trial with TH104 in moderate-to-severe chronic pruritus in PBC patients. We plan to plan to initiate a hepatic impairment study prior to launching the Phase 2 study.

On June 7, 2024, we entered into an at-the-market offering agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with Rodman & Renshaw LLC (the “Manager”), pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $1,650,000 through the Manager. Any shares sold under the ATM Agreement will be issued pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and the related prospectus supplement. We will pay the Manager a commission of 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the sales of shares of our common stock sold through the Manager pursuant to the ATM Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we raised gross proceeds of $83,568 pursuant to the ATM Agreement from the sale of 40,000 shares of our common stock at an average price of $2.0892 per share (the “ATM Sale”). The net proceeds from the ATM Sale during the year ended December 31, 2024 were $73,189, after deducting sales agent commissions of $2,507 and other fees of $7,992.

We signed a development agreement for TH1014 Phase 2A clinical trial manufacturing on July 25, 2024. In the study, our CMO will manufacture four increasing strengths of TH104 active material and their corresponding placebos. The manufacturing operation is a 5-month program, where each of the strengths will be released for clinical packaging by the end of the year. We are pleased to state that the developmental activities are on track and within budget. Updates to the developmental activities are provided biweekly, and we currently see no risks to the timely completion of the activities and procurement of the clinical trial materials in the proposed timeframe.
Previous report
On December 9, 2024, we closed a private placement offering (the “December 2024 PIPE Offering”) with certain accredited investors of $2.02 million of our securities consisting of shares of our common stock and/or pre-funded warrants to acquire shares of our common stock and warrants to acquire shares of our common stock. Net proceeds from the December 2024 PIPE Offering were approximately $1.8 million.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, we raised gross proceeds of $83,688 pursuant to the ATM Agreement from the sale of 40,000 shares of our common stock at an average price of $2.0892 per share. The net proceeds from the ATM Sale during the year ended December 31, 2024 were $73,189, after deducting sales agent commissions of $2,507 and other fees of $7,992.
Previous report
Based on our limited operating history, recurring negative cash flows from operations, current plans and available resources, we will need substantial additional funding to support future operating activities. We have concluded that the prevailing conditions and ongoing liquidity risks faced by us raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year following the date these consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are issued. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Previous report
We may seek to raise additional funding through the sale of additional equity or debt securities, enter into strategic partnerships, grants or other arrangements or a combination of the foregoing to support our future operations; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional capital on terms acceptable to us, on a timely basis, or at all. The failure to obtain sufficient additional funding could adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objectives and product development timelines and may result in delaying or terminating clinical trial activities which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Previous report
Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $11.7 million. The net increase in financing activities was from net cash proceeds of $12.2 million from the issuance of our common stock in connection with public offerings and $0.7 million in proceeds received from insurance premium financing liability offset by deferred offering costs of $0.5 million and $0.7 million in repayments of insurance premium financing liability.

Previous wording
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimation process often may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes, and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. Estimates are used in the following areas, among others: research and development expense recognition, stock-based compensation, allowances of deferred tax assets, and cash flow assumptions regarding going concern considerations. Although management believes the estimates that have been used are reasonable, actual results could vary from the estimates that were used.

The estimation process often may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes, and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. We consider the following areas to be our critical accounting estimate: fair value of digital assets, research and development expense recognition, stock-based compensation, allowances of deferred tax assets, and cash flow assumptions regarding going concern considerations. Although management believes the estimates that have been used are reasonable, actual results could vary from the estimates that were used.
