REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM*
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has continuing losses and negative cash flows from operating activities that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include 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 Matters
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 relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter 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 a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Accrued and prepaid balance for research and development expenses
As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, at each balance sheet date the Company estimates its expenses resulting from its obligations under contracts with vendors, clinical research organizations, and consultants in connection with performing pre-clinical and clinical work in preparation for and related to clinical trials. The Company accounts for research and development expenses based on services that have been performed on the Company’s behalf and estimating the level of service performed and the associated costs incurred for the services when an invoice has not been received. The Company’s accrual for pre-clinical and clinical trial expenses of approximately $3.4 million is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the December 31, 2025 consolidated balance sheet. The Company also recorded prepaid pre-clinical and clinical trial expenses of approximately $3.5 million within prepaid expenses and other on the December 31, 2025 consolidated balance sheet. The amounts recorded for clinical trial expenses represent the Company’s estimates of the unpaid and prepaid clinical trial expenses based on facts and circumstances known to the Company at that time and are dependent upon the timely and accurate reporting of contract research organizations and other third-party vendors. The estimation of clinical trial expenses was also identified as acritical accounting estimate by management.
We identified the accrual for research and development expenses as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgment and estimation required by management in determining progress or state of completion of clinical trials or services completed. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor subjectivity, and significant audit effort was required in performing our procedures and evaluating audit evidence relating to estimates made by management.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the financial statements. We obtained an understanding of Management’s process and evaluated the design of controls over developing its estimate of accrued and prepaid research and development expenses, including the process of estimating the expenses incurred to date based on the status of the pre-clinical and clinical trial work. Our procedures also included, among others, reading agreements and contract amendments with vendors, consultants and clinical research organizations and clinical site agreements in connection with conducting clinical trials, and evaluating the significant assumptions described above and the methods used in developing the clinical trial estimates and re-calculating the amounts that were unpaid and prepaid at the balance sheet date. We confirmed certain contractual commitments for completeness of the contract listing, as well as confirmation of work completed, paid and unpaid, directly with the third parties involved in performing the pre-clinical and clinical trial services on behalf of the Company. We also made direct inquiries of Company financial personnel regarding the contract amount including change orders, status and progress to completion of clinical trials, amounts paid to date under each contract, and description of future commitments. We also assessed the historical accuracy of management’s estimates by comparing work completed in the current period to work completed in prior-period to identify unusual fluctuations, if any.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2010.
