Report of Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Aclarion, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet
of Aclarion, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2023, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity
(deficit), and cash flows for the year 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 financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s
Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the
Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a deficiency in shareholders’ equity 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 2. 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
audit. 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 audit 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 audit, 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 audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Stockholders
Aclarion, Inc.
Broomfield, Colorado
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying
balance sheet of Aclarion, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022, and the related statements of operations, changes
in stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year 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 financial position of the
Company at December 31, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Restatement to correct the 2022 financial statements
As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements,
the 2022 financial statements have been restated to correct misstatements.
The financial statements of the Company as of
December 31, 2022, before the effects of the adjustments for the correction of the errors described in Note 3, were audited by Daszkal
Bolton LLP who issued an unqualified opinion on those statements in their report, containing explanatory language that substantial doubt
exists about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, dated February 27, 2023. Effective March 1, 2023, CohnReznick
LLP acquired certain people and assets of Daszkal Bolton LLP.
Going Concern Uncertainty
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has
suffered recurring losses from operations and an accumulated deficit 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 2. 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 audit. 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 audit in accordance with the

to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, 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

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Year Ended December 31, 2023
NOTE 1. THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company
Aclarion, Inc., formerly Nocimed, Inc., (the “Company”
or “Aclarion”) is a healthcare technology company that leverages magnetic resonance spectroscopy (“MRS”), and
a proprietary biomarker to optimize clinical treatments. The Company was formed in February 2015, is incorporated in Delaware, and has
its principal place of business in Broomfield, Colorado.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to various risks and uncertainties
frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of development. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to,
its limited operating history, competition from other companies, limited access to additional funds, dependence on key personnel, and
management of potential rapid growth. To address these risks, the Company must, among other things, develop its customer base; implement
and successfully execute its business and marketing strategy; develop follow-on products; provide superior customer service;
and attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be successful in addressing these
or other such risks.
Initial Public Offering
On April 21, 2022, the registration statement
for our initial public offering (“IPO”) was declared effective. In connection with the effectiveness of the IPO registration
statement:
|
· |
we
effected a 1-for-7.47
reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock (2022 Stock Split); |
|
|
|
|
· |
accordingly, all common share amounts and per share data presented in our condensed financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented; |
|
|
|
|
· |
we filed a restated Certificate of Incorporation with the State of Delaware and we adopted new restated Bylaws; |
|
|
|
|
· |
certain
outstanding common stock warrants were exercised on a net share basis
for 60,408 common shares (3,776 shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split); |
|
|
|
|
· |
24,495,004
outstanding shares of our preferred stock were converted into 3,279,117 common shares (204,945 common
shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split); |
|
|
|
|
· |
all
accrued dividends on our outstanding Series B, B-1, B-2 and B-3 preferred stock were converted to 984,429 common shares (61,527
common shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split); and |
|
|
|
|
· |
all
accrued interest on the Company's outstanding secured promissory notes was converted into (i) 426,768 common
shares (26,673
common shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split) and (ii) warrants to purchase 426,768 shares
of common stock (26,673
common shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split), with beneficial conversion rates charged to interest expense upon
conversion. |
On April 26, 2022, the Company completed its
IPO of 2,165,000 units at a public offering price of $4.35 per unit. Each unit consisted of (i) one share of common stock (equivalent
to 0.0625 of a common share following the 2024 Split) and (ii) one warrant to purchase one share of common stock (adjusted to 0.0625
of a common share following the 2024 Split) with a per share exercise price of $4.35 (adjusted to $69.60 following the 2024 Split). Following
the commencement of the IPO, the underwriters partially exercised their over-allotment option and purchased additional common stock warrants
to purchase 324,750 common shares (adjusted to 20,297
common shares following the 2024 Split). After deducting underwriter's commissions and expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately
$8.6
million and our common stock and warrants started trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “ACON” and “ACONW”,
respectively.
In connection with the IPO, we issued to the
representative of the underwriters a common stock warrant to purchase 173,200 shares of common stock (10,825
shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split) with an exercise price of $5.44 ($87.04 on a post-2024 Split basis) per share.
The representative's warrants are exercisable commencing October 26, 2022 and will expire on April 26, 2027.
On April 21, 2022, options to purchase
1,204,819 shares of common stock (75,301
common shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split) previously awarded to the Company's Executive Chairman, Dr. Jeffrey
Thramann, vested in connection with the completion of the IPO pursuant to the terms of such options. The per share exercise price of
these options is $1.94 ($31.04 on a post-2024 Split basis) per share. The options have a 10-year term.
On April 21, 2022, in connection with the IPO,
the Company’s 2022 Aclarion Equity Incentive Plan, or “2022 Plan”, became effective. Our board of directors has appointed
the compensation committee of our board of directors as the committee under the 2022 Plan with the authority to administer the 2022 Plan.
At the 2022 Plan effective date, the aggregate number of our shares of common stock that could be issued or used for reference purposes
under the 2022 Plan could not exceed 2,000,000 shares (125,000 shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split), subject to adjustments
as described in the 2022 Plan.
On April 29, 2022, in connection with the IPO,
a bonus was paid to David Neal and Brent Ness of $100,000 each. On May 13, 2022, in connection with the IPO, a bonus of $130,000 was paid
to James Peacock.
On May 2, 2022, in connection with the IPO, the
Company paid the University of California - San Francisco the amount of $123,828 to satisfy the Indexed Milestone Payment obligation included
within the exclusive license agreement.
2022 Reverse Stock Split
On April 21, 2022, the Company effected a 1-for-7.47
reverse stock split (the “2022 Stock Split”) of its issued and outstanding common stock.
2024 Reverse Stock Split
In March 2023 the Company’s stockholders
approved a reverse stock split proposal at a ratio in the range of one-for-five to one-for-fifty, with the final ratio to be determined
by the Company's board in its discretion without further approval from the Company's stockholders. In January 2024, the Company's board
subsequently approved the final reverse stock split ratio of one-for-sixteen
(the “2024 Stock Split”), which resulted in a reduction in the number of outstanding shares of common stock, warrants,
stock options and restricted share units and a proportionate increase in the value of each share or strike price of the warrants and
stock options. The common stock began trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis on the NASDAQ on January 4, 2024.
As a result of the 2022 Stock Split and the 2024
Stock Split, unless described otherwise, all references to common stock, share data, per share data and related information contained
in these financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the stock splits for all periods presented.
In addition, any fractional shares that would otherwise be issued as a result of the stock splits were rounded up to the nearest whole
share. Further, the number of shares issuable and exercise prices of stock options and warrants have been retrospectively adjusted in
these financial statements for all periods presented to reflect the 2022 Stock Split and the 2024 Stock Split.
The following tables present selected share information
reflecting on a retroactive basis the reverse stock splits as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.
The financial statements include some amounts
that are based on management's best estimates and judgments. The most significant estimates relate to depreciation, amortization, valuation
of capital stock, and valuation of warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company's preferred and common stock. These estimates
may be adjusted as more current information becomes available, and any adjustment could be significant.
Valuation
of Derivative Instruments
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts on an Entity’s Own Equity,
addresses whether an equity-linked contract qualifies as equity in the entity’s financial statements. Agreements where an entity
has insufficient authorized and unissued shares to settle the contract generally are accounted for as a liability and marked to fair value
through earnings each reporting period. The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are liabilities
or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative
instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then revalued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported
as charges or credits to income.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, provides guidance
on the development and disclosure of fair value measurements. Under this accounting guidance, fair value is defined as an exit price,
representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions
that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.
The accounting guidance classifies fair value
measurements in one of the following three categories for disclosure purposes:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices
in active markets for identical instruments that are accessible by the Company on the measurement date.
Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets
that are not active or inputs which are either directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs
for the instrument requiring the development of assumptions by the Company.
The Company analyzes all financial instruments
with features of both liabilities and equity under the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) accounting standard
for such instruments. Under this standard, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level
of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The carrying values of the Company’s financial
instruments including cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are approximately equal to their respective
fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s warrant liabilities and derivative liabilities
are estimated using level 3 inputs (see Note 4).
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company has derivative financial instruments
that are not hedges and do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in other income
(expenses), on a net basis in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments
purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no
cash equivalents for all periods
presented. The Company maintains cash deposits at several financial institutions, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
up to $250,000. The Company’s cash balance may at times exceed these limits. On December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company had approximately
$761,800 and $1,229,000, respectively, in excess of federally insured limits. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and
the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. The Company maintains no international bank accounts. As of December
31, 2023, $10,000 of the Company’s cash was restricted as collateral related to the credit card program offered by our bank.
Accounts Receivable, Less Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts
The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful
accounts based upon an evaluation of the current status of receivables, historical experience, and other factors as necessary. It is reasonably
possible that the Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change. The allowance for doubtful accounts was
$0
on December 31, 2023, and 2022.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenues are recognized when a contract with a
customer exists, and at that point in time when we have delivered a Nociscan report to our customer. Revenue is recognized in the amount
that reflects the negotiated consideration expected to be received in exchange for those reports. Following the delivery of the report,
the company has no ongoing obligations or services to provide to the customer. Customers pay no other upfront, licensing, or other fees.
To date, our reports are not reimbursable under any third-party payment arrangements, The Company invoices its customers based on the
billing schedules in its sales arrangements. Payment terms range generally from 30 to 90 days, from the date of invoice.
Geographic Locations & Segments
Approximately 13% and 9% of the Company’s
revenues were generated from contracts with customers outside the United States in the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
All invoices are billed in the currency of the customers and are recorded in US Dollars at the then spot rate, which automatically is
converted to dollars upon receipt and deposited in the Company’s bank. Differences between the amounts received and the amounts
initially recorded are reflected in Other Income (Expense).
Segment Disclosure
The Company
has a single operating and reporting segment, which is the delivery of Nociscan reports to our customers. The Company’s
Chief Executive Officer reviews financial information for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost and
are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Furniture and fixtures are depreciated
over seven years. Computer and office equipment and computer software are depreciated over five years. Repairs and maintenance costs,
which are not considered improvements and do not extend the useful life of the property and equipment, are expensed as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company
reviews long-lived assets, including intangible assets, property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in business
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable using pre-tax undiscounted cash flows. Impairment,
if any, is measured as the amount by which the carrying value of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
The Company expenses the costs of sales and marketing
its products and services as incurred. The primary drivers of cost have been employee payroll, website and branding development, press
releases, attendance at various industry conferences, Key Opinion Leader consulting fees in the form of restricted stock grants, and travel
expenses.
Research and Development Costs
Costs related
to research, design and development of products are charged to research and development expense as incurred. These costs include direct
compensation, benefits, and other headcount related costs for research and development personnel; costs for materials used in research
and development activities; costs for outside services and allocated portions of facilities and other corporate costs. The Company has
entered into research and clinical study arrangements with selected hospitals, cancer treatment centers, academic institutions and research
institutions worldwide. These agreements support the Company’s internal research and development capabilities.
General
& Administrative
General
and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel and related costs, including stock-based compensation, legal fees relating
to both intellectual property and corporate matters, accounting and audit related costs, insurance, corporate communications and public
company expenses, information technology, depreciation, amortization and maintenance, and fees for consulting, business development and
other professional services.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern
As of December 31, 2023, we had cash of
approximately $1.0 million. Subsequent to
December 31, 2023, the Company raised capital using an equity line (refer to Note 17 to our financial statements – Subsequent
Events), and as of February 1, 2024, the Company had approximately $1.5
million of cash, which we believe will fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the second quarter of
2024, up to our first maturity repayment on our unsecured non-convertible
note repayment which is due in April 2024. The Company has based these estimates, however, on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and could spend available financial
resources much faster than we currently expect. The Company will need to raise additional funds to continue funding our technology
development and commercialization efforts over the following twelve months. Management has plans to secure such additional
funding.
As a result of the Company’s recurring losses
from operations, and the need for additional financing to fund its operating and capital requirements, there is uncertainty regarding
the Company’s ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate its business effectively, which raises substantial doubt as to
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based awards in
accordance with provisions of ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, under which the Company recognizes the grant-date
fair value of stock-based awards issued to employees and nonemployee board members as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over
the vesting period of the award, while awards containing a performance condition are recognized as expense when the achievement of the
performance criteria is achieved. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the grant-date fair value of stock
options. The Company records expense for forfeitures in the periods they occur.
The exercise or strike price of each option is
not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the option on the date the option is granted.
The Company issues restricted stock unit awards
to non-employee consultants who are providing various services. The awards are valued at the market price on the date of the grant. The
awards vest over the contract life and based on achievement of targeted performance milestones.
On occasion, the Company grants common stock to
compensate vendors for services rendered.
Deferred Financing Costs
The Company capitalizes certain legal, accounting,
and other fees and costs that are directly attributable to in-process equity financings as deferred offering costs until such financings
are completed. Upon the completion of an equity financing, these costs are recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital of the
related offering. Upon the completion of the IPO in April 2022, approximately $1.5 million of offering costs related to the IPO were reclassified
to additional paid-in capital. Upon the completion of the issuance of shares pursuant to the equity line in the fourth quarter
of 2023, $204,647 of offering costs were reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an emerging growth company, as
defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies
can delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those
standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with certain new or
revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method
of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax bases. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are
established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. As of December 31, 2023, the Company
had deferred tax assets related to certain net operating losses. A valuation allowance was established against these deferred tax assets
at their full amount, resulting in a zero balance of deferred tax assets on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and
2022.
NOTE 3. 2022 RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED

NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
In accordance with ASC 820 (Fair Value Measurements
and Disclosures), the Company uses various inputs to measure the outstanding warrants, certain embedded redemption features associated
with the senior note to Aclarion, Inc. on a recurring basis to determine the fair value of the liability.

The fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities
associated with the Senior Notes Payable was estimated using a probability weighted discounted cash flow model to measure the fair value.
This involves significant Level 3 inputs and assumptions including an (i) estimated probability and timing of certain financing events
and event of default, and (ii) the Company’s risk-adjusted discount rate.
The fair value of the warrants to purchase shares
of common stock was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation using the following assumptions.

NOTE 5. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06,
Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic
815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain accounting
models that separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. The guidance also modifies how
certain convertible instruments, that may be settled in cash or shares, impact the calculation of diluted earnings per share. ASU 2020-06
allows for a modified or full retrospective method of transition. This update is effective for emerging growth companies following private
company adoption dates in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early
adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this standard as of April 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption
of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended, which
replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology, that is referred to as a current expected loss methodology (CECL).
CECL was required to be implemented for small business reporting companies after December 31, 2022. The measurement of expected losses
under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade receivables, loan receivables
and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance, loan commitments,
standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and similar instruments and net investment in leases, as accounted for by the lessor
under ASC 842. In addition, ASC 326 made changes to the available for-sale debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses
be accounted for as an allowance instead of a write-down on available for-sale securities that management does not intend to sell, or
believes it is more likely than not that they will be required to sell.
The Company has adopted ASC 326 using the retrospective
approach for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, which consists of trade receivables. The Company estimates the likelihood
of collection considering trade receivables-based factors such as the creditworthiness of its customers. There are no off-balance sheet
assets or guarantees. The Company recorded no change to retained earnings due to the adoption of ASC 326.
As of this date, the Company has not purchased,
nor does it intend to purchase, debt securities, eroded or financial assets, or leases within the scope of the pronouncement. If it does,
it will use the prospective transition approach.
NOTE 6. REVENUE
Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and
cash collections may result in trade, unbilled receivables, and deferred revenues on the balance sheets. At times, revenue recognition
may occur before the billing, resulting in an unbilled receivable, which would represent a contract asset. The contract asset would be
a component of accounts receivable and other assets for the current and non-current portions, respectively. In the event the Company receives
advances or deposits from customers before revenue is recognized, this would result in a contract liability. In years ending December
31, 2023, and 2022, the Company invoiced as services were performed and did not invoice in advance; the company has no contract balances.

NOTE 11. SHORT TERM NOTES, CONVERTIBLE DEBT,
AND DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
Convertible Notes
As of December 31, 2022, there were no Convertible
Notes payable and outstanding. There was no convertible note activity in the year ended December 31, 2023.
Senior Notes Payable
In May 2023, the Company issued $1,437,500 unsecured senior notes that
mature on May 16, 2024 (“the Senior Notes Payable”), for cash proceeds of $1,250,000. The Senior Notes Payable contain an
original issue discount of 15.0% and accrue interest at an annual rate of 8.0%.
In September 2023, as agreed to during the issuance of the Senior Notes
Payable, the Company exercised their right to an additional financing, issuing $862,500 unsecured senior notes that mature on September
1, 2024 ("the Series B Notes Payable) for cash proceeds of $750,000. The Series B Notes Payable contain an original issue discount
of 15.0% and accrue interest at an annual rate of 8.0%.
In November 2023, the Company issued $294,118 unsecured senior notes
that mature on April 19, 2024 (“the Series C Notes Payable”), for cash proceeds of $250,000. The Senior Notes Payable contain
an original issue discount of 15.0% and accrue interest at an annual rate of 8.0%.
The Company incurred issuance costs, recorded as deferred financing
costs, of $296,313 relating to due diligence and legal costs associated with the issuance of the notes.
The Company evaluated the embedded redemption and contingent interest
features in the notes to determine if such features were required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative liability. In accordance
with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging Activities, the embedded redemption features and contingent interest feature were accounted for
as derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and shall be adjusted to fair value at each reporting date. The Company fair valued
such derivative liabilities and recorded a debt discount at issuance of the notes of $320,561.
The Company issued warrants to purchase 1,232,156
and 744,890 shares of common stock (77,010 and 46,556 shares, respectively, after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split) to the holders
of the Senior Notes Payable and Series C Notes Payable (collectively the “Senior Notes Warrants”) with an exercise price of
$0.6262 and $0.2856 per share ($10.02 and $4.58 post-2024 split), respectively. The Company accounted for the warrants in accordance with
the guidance contained in ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” whereby under that provision these warrants did not meet the criteria
for equity treatment and were recorded as a liability. As such, these warrants are recorded at fair value as of each reporting date with
the change in fair value reported within other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as “Change in fair
value of warrant liability” until the warrants are exercised, expired or other facts and circumstances lead the warrant liability
to be reclassified to stockholders’ equity. The fair value of the Senior Notes Warrants at issuance was $736,249 and was recorded
as a debt discount. The Company incurred issuance costs of $72,862 relating to the Senior Notes Warrants which was recorded as a day 1
expense due to the liability classification of such warrants.
In connection with the issuance of the Senior
Notes Payable and Series C Notes Payable, the Company paid a commitment fee in the form of 339,360 and 148,978 shares (21,210 and 9,311
shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split) of unregistered common stock to the holders, respectively. The aggregate commitment
fees had a fair value at issuance of $208,916 and are recorded as a deferred financing cost.
The resulting debt discounts from the derivative liabilities, warrant
liabilities and deferred financing costs were presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability and amortized
to interest expense using the effective interest rate method. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized $497,763 in
amortization of debt discounts and deferred financing costs which is recorded in interest expense.
The following table reconciles the aggregate
amount for the Senior Notes Payable, Series B Notes Payable, and Series C Notes Payable as well as the unamortized deferred financing
costs and debt discounts relating to the derivative liabilities and warrant liabilities.

Secured Promissory Notes Payable
In June 2021, the Company issued $2.0 million
of promissory notes that matured at the earlier of the consummation of a Qualified Financing or May 31, 2022. The promissory notes incorporated
the following major attributes: secured by a lien and security interest on substantially all of the Company’s assets; interest
accrues at 33%; holder option to convert the accrued interest into the Company securities being offered in a Qualified Financing
at 30% (i.e. 70% discount) of the price being paid by other investors in the Qualified Financing; and automatic conversion in the
case of a Qualifying IPO of the accrued interest into the Company securities being offered in the Qualifying IPO at 30% (70% discount)
of the price being paid by other investors in the Qualifying IPO. If the promissory notes remained outstanding after May 31, 2022, the
Company had the option to extend the promissory notes upon the payment of an extension fee, which consisted of warrants to purchase 150,000
shares (1,255 shares after giving effect to the 2022 and 2024 Stock Splits) with a five-year term, to purchase shares of the Company’s
common stock at a price of $ 0.01 per share ($1.20 post-2022 and 2024 splits).
On April 21, 2022, the registration statement
for our IPO was declared effective. In connection with the effectiveness of the IPO registration statement, all accrued interest on the
Company's outstanding secured promissory notes were converted into (i) 426,768 (26,673 after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split) common
shares and (ii) warrants to purchase 426,768 shares of common stock (26,673 common shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split)
with a $1,299,507 beneficial conversion rate charged to interest expense.
On April 27, 2022, the Company used $2 million
of the IPO proceeds to retire all outstanding secured promissory notes.
NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Royalty Agreement
The Company has an exclusive license agreement
with the Regents of the University of California to make, use, sell and otherwise distribute products under certain of the Regents of
the University of California’s patents anywhere in the world. The Company is obligated to pay a minimum annual royalty of $50,000,
and an earned royalty of 4% of net sales. The minimum annual royalty will be applied against the earned royalty due for the calendar year
in which the minimum payment was made. The license agreements expire upon expiration of the patents and may be terminated earlier if the
Company so elects. The U.S. licensed patents that are currently issued expire between 2026 and 2029, without considering any possible
patent term adjustment or extensions and assuming payment of all appropriate maintenance, renewal, annuity, or other governmental fees.
The Company recorded royalty costs of $50,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022.
Additionally, the Company was obligated to make
a cash Indexed Milestone Payment to the Regents of the University of California in the event of either a change of control or an IPO.
This cash payment was calculated as follows: 28,532 (1,783 shares after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split) of Company common stock
times the IPO price of $4.34 ($69.44 post-2024 Stock Split). On May 2, 2022, in connection with the IPO, the Company paid the University
of California - San Francisco the amount of $123,828 to satisfy the Indexed Milestone Payment obligation included within the exclusive
license agreement.
Litigation
To date, the Company has not been involved in
legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. If any legal proceeding occurs, the Company would record a provision
for a loss when it believes that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated, although
litigation is inherently unpredictable and is subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond the Company’s control.
Should any of these estimates and assumptions change or prove to have been incorrect, the Company could incur significant charges related
to legal matters that could have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
Stock Option Grant to our Executive Chairman
In September 2021, the Board of Directors approved
a stock option grant of 1,204,819 shares (75,301 after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split) to Dr. Jeffrey Thramann, our Executive Chairman.
These options were conditional, such that they vested only upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including an IPO, a next round
financing, the merger of the Company with a SPAC, or the sale of the Company. The amount of stock options that would vest upon such specified
events depended upon the terms and timing of the applicable event.
On April 21, 2022, options to purchase 1,204,819
shares of common stock (75,301 shares post-2024 Stock Split) previously awarded to Dr. Jeffrey Thramann vested in connection with the
completion of the IPO pursuant to the terms of such options. The exercise price of these options is $1.94 ($31.04 post-2024 Stock Split)
per share. The options have a 10-year term.
On September 15, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a stock option
grant to purchase an additional 185,285 (11,580 post-2024 Stock Split) shares of common stock to Dr. Thramann. The exercise price of the
options is $1.94 ($31.04 post-2024 Stock Split) per share, they are fully vested, and they have a 10-year term.
NOTE
13. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
The Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation on April 21, 2022, as part of the IPO. The Company is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated, respectively,
“Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock.” The total number of shares which the Company is authorized to issue is two
hundred twenty million (220,000,000) shares. Two hundred million (200,000,000) shares are authorized to be Common Stock, having a par
value per share of $0.00001. Twenty million (20,000,000) shares are authorized to be Preferred Stock, having a par value per share of
$0.00001.
Prior to the IPO, the Company had authorized two
classes of shares. These classes included shares of common stock and preferred stock. There was one authorized series of shares of common
stock and eight existing authorized series of preferred stock: Series A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, B, B-1, B-2, and B-3.
The preferred shares converted to common shares
on a 1:1 pre-split basis immediately prior to the Stock Split on April 21, 2022. Those common shares were adjusted to reflect the 2022
Stock Split and 2024 Stock Split as described in Note 1 Reverse Stock Split.

Warrants
As of December 31, 2023, IPO Warrants to purchase
155,610 shares of common stock (post-split), and other warrants to purchase 165,555 shares of common stock (post-split) were outstanding.
Warrants issued in connection with the IPO
In connection with the Company’s IPO, all
accrued interest on the Company's outstanding secured promissory notes were converted into (i) 26,673 (post-2024 Stock Split) common shares
and (ii) warrants to purchase 26,673 shares of common stock (post-2024 Stock Split), with beneficial conversion rates charged to interest
expense upon conversion. These warrants have an exercise price of $69.60 (post-2024 Stock Split) per share and expiring 2027.
In the IPO, the Company sold 2,165,000 units at
a public offering price of $4.35 per unit. Each unit consisted of (i) one share of common stock (equivalent to 0.0625 of a common share
following the 2024 Split) and (ii) one warrant to purchase one share of common stock (adjusted to 0.0625 of a common share following the
2024 Split) warrant with a per share exercise price of $4.35 (adjusted to $69.60 following the 2024 Split). On April 22, 2022, the underwriters
partially exercised their over-allotment option and purchased additional common stock warrants to purchase 324,750 common shares (adjusted
to 20,297 common shares following the 2024 Split). The common stock and the IPO Warrants were immediately separable and issued separately
in the offering. The IPO Warrants are listed and tradeable on the NASDAQ stock market, immediately exercisable at the option of the holder,
and expire five years from the date of issuance.
In connection with the IPO, we issued to the representative
of the underwriters’ common stock warrants to purchase 10,825 shares of common stock (post-2024 Stock Split) with an exercise price
of $87.04 (post-2024 Stock Split) per share. The representative's warrants are exercisable commencing October 26, 2022, and will expire
on April 26, 2027.
The Company evaluated the terms of all warrants
issued at the IPO and determined that they should be classified as equity instruments based upon accounting guidance provided in ASC 480,
Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Since the Company determined that the warrants were
equity classified, the Company recorded the proceeds from the IPO, net of issuance costs, within common stock at par value and the balance
of proceeds to additional paid in capital.
Other Outstanding Warrants
As of December 31, 2023, we had other
outstanding warrants to purchase 128,057
shares of common stock (post-split) (in addition to our IPO Warrants described above). The terms of these warrants are (i) warrants
to purchase 123,566
shares of common stock (post-split) with a per share exercise price of $2.315
(post split) and expiring 2028, and warrants to purchase 4,491
common shares (post split) with a per share exercise price of $0.0002
(post-split) and expiring 2028.
The per share exercise price of the warrants
described in clause (i) above is subject to a “ratchet” adjustment if the Company issues securities at an effective per share
price lower than the then effective warrant exercise price.
White Lion Equity
Line Agreement
On October 9, 2023, the Company entered into an
equity line common stock purchase agreement (the “Equity Line Purchase Agreement”) and a related registration rights agreement
with White Lion Capital, LLC (“White Lion”). Pursuant to the Equity Line Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the
obligation to require White Lion to purchase, from time to time, up to $10,000,000 in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued shares
of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Equity Line Purchase Agreement.
It is anticipated that the Company may sell shares
of common stock to White Lion from time-to-time over a sales period that expires December 31, 2024. The number of shares ultimately offered
for sale to White Lion under the Equity Line Purchase Agreement is dependent upon the number of shares we elect to sell to White Lion
under the Equity Line Purchase Agreement. The actual number of shares of common stock that are sold to White Lion may depend based on
a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock during the time that the Equity Line Purchase Agreement in is effect.
The actual gross proceeds the Company may derive from the Equity Line Purchase Agreement may be less than $10.0 million, which may
impact our future liquidity. Because the price per share of each share sold to White Lion will fluctuate during the sales period, it is
not currently possible to predict the number of shares that will be sold or the actual gross proceeds to be raised in connection with
those sales, if any.
The Company currently has an effective registration
statement to register for resale by White Lion 2,500,000
shares of common stock. White Lion may ultimately purchase all or some of these shares. After White Lion has acquired shares under
the Equity Line Purchase Agreement, it may sell all, some or none of those shares. Sales to the Selling Securityholder by us pursuant
to the Equity Line Purchase Agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock.
The sale of a substantial number of shares to
White Lion, or anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future
at a time and at a price that we might otherwise desire. The number of shares of our common stock ultimately offered for resale by White
Lion is dependent upon the number of shares of common stock issued to White Lion pursuant to the Equity Line Purchase Agreement. Depending
on a variety of factors, including market liquidity of our common stock, the issuance of shares to White Lion may cause the trading price
of our common stock to decline.
In consideration for the commitments of White
Lion, as described above, the Company issued to White Lion 187,500 pre-split shares (11,719 post-2024 Stock Split) of Common Stock (the
“Commitment Shares”), having a value of $75,000 based upon the closing sale price of Common Stock on October 6, 2023.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company sold to White
Lion 4,575,000 newly issued pre-split common shares (285,938 post-2024 Stock Split) for proceeds of $1,462,949.
NOTE
14. NET LOSS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK
In January 2024, the Company’s board approved
the final reverse stock split ratio of one-for-sixteen, which resulted in a reduction in the number of outstanding shares of common stock
and a proportionate increase in the value of each share. The common stock began trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis on the NASDAQ
on January 4, 2024. The retrospective effect of the reverse stock split has been incorporated on a retrospective basis in the tabular
disclosures of loss per share and weighted average outstanding shares for the fiscal years 2023 and 2022 herein.
Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed
by dividing net loss attributable to stockholders by the weighted average number shares of common stock outstanding, vested restricted
stock units, and pre-funded warrants during the year. Potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock equivalents were excluded
from the computation of diluted net loss per share for loss periods presented because including them would have been antidilutive.
A post-split reconciliation of the numerator and
denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to stockholders follows:

NOTE 15. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
2022 Aclarion Equity Incentive Plan
On April 21, 2022, in connection with the
IPO, the Company’s 2022 Aclarion Equity Incentive Plan, or “2022 Plan”, went into effect. Our board of directors
has appointed the compensation committee of our board of directors as the committee under the 2022 Plan with the authority to
administer the 2022 Plan. The aggregate number of our shares of common stock that may be issued or used for reference purposes under
the 2022 Plan is 2,000,000
shares (125,000 post 2024 Stock Split), with an automatic increase on January 1st of each year, for a period of not more than ten
years, commencing on January 1st of the year following the year in which the IPO Date occurs and ending on (and including) January
1, 2032, in an amount equal to 5% of the total number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding
calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may act prior to January 1st of a given year to provide that there will be
no January 1st increase in shares for such year or that the increase in shares for such year will be a lesser number of shares of
Common Stock than would otherwise occur pursuant to the preceding sentence.
As of the year ended December 31, 2023, the aggregate
number of our shares of common stock that may be issued or used for reference purposes under the 2022 Plan was 2,470,814 (154,426 post-split).
On January 1, 2024, the 2022 Plan had an automatic increase of 660,311 (41,270 post-split) shares which was 5% of the total number of shares
of Capital Stock outstanding on December 31, 2023.
Options granted under the 2022 Plan may be incentive
stock options or non-statutory stock options, as determined by the administrator at the time of grant of an option. Restricted stock
may also be granted under the 2022 Plan. The options vest in accordance with the grant terms and are exercisable for a period of up to
10 years from grant date.
The Company did not grant any stock options for
the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. The fair value of the options granted for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 were
estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Nocimed, Inc. 2015 Stock Plan
The Company maintains the Nocimed, Inc. 2015 Stock
Plan, or the “Existing Plan”, under which the Company could grant 152,558 shares (after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split)
or options of the Company to our employees, consultants, and other service providers. The Company suspended the Existing Plan in connection
with the April 2022, initial public offering. The Company did not grant any stock options under the Existing Plan for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2022. No further awards will be granted under the Existing Plan, but awards granted prior to the suspension date will
continue in accordance with their terms and the terms of the Existing Plan.
Determining Fair Value of Stock Options
The fair value of each grant of stock options
was determined by the Company using the methods and assumptions discussed below. Each of these inputs is subjective and generally requires
significant judgment to determine.
Valuation and Amortization Method —The
Company estimates the fair value of its stock options using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. This fair value is then amortized
over the requisite service periods of the awards.
Expected Term—The Company estimates
the expected term of stock option by taking the average of the vesting term and the contractual term of the option, as illustrated by
the simplified method.
Expected Volatility—The expected
volatility is derived from the Company’s expectations of future market volatility over the expected term of the options.
Risk-Free Interest Rate—The risk-free
interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve on the date of grant.
Dividend Yield—The dividend yield
assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of no dividend payouts.

December 31, 2023, the Company granted RSUs under the 2022 Plan that have a combination of time-based and performance-based vesting,
contingent upon continued service with the Company. The Company granted certain consultants an aggregate of RSUs for 26,506
common shares (after giving effect to the 2024 Stock Split).

740-10, which provides for an asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences, using currently enacted tax laws, attributed to temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts calculated for income tax purposes.
A reconciliation
of the federal income tax rates to the Company’s effective tax rates for the year ended December 31, 2023 consist of
the following:

The Company
recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making
such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing
taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The
Company assessed the need for a valuation allowance of $9,714,000
required as of December 31, 2023, as the Company determined it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Our net deferred tax asset and valuation allowance increased by $1,315,000 for
the year ended December 31, 2023. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the
generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.
The Company has evaluated
its income tax positions and has determined that it does not have any uncertain tax positions. The Company will recognize interest and
penalties related to any uncertain tax positions through its income tax expense.
The Company files income
tax returns in the U.S., Colorado, and California jurisdictions and is subject to examination by the various taxing authorities.
NOTE 17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Reverse
Stock Split
In March 2023 the Company’s stockholders
approved a reverse stock split proposal at a ratio in the range of one-for-five to one-for-fifty, with the final ratio to be determined
by the Company's board in its discretion without further approval from the Company's stockholders. In January 2024, the Company's board
approved the final reverse stock split ratio of one-for-sixteen, which resulted in a reduction in the number of outstanding shares of
common stock and a proportionate increase in the value of each share. The common stock began trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis
on the NASDAQ on January 4, 2024.
The following table presents selected share
information reflecting on a retroactive basis the reverse stock splits for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:

principal amount of unsecured non-convertible notes to certain accredited investors.

investors to exchange principal and accrued interest on these notes for shares of common stock. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the
Company issued an aggregate of 644,142 post-split shares of common stock in exchange for $1,519,779 principal and accrued interest on
the notes. Following these exchanges, the remaining outstanding balance of principal and interest on the notes is $1,145,037.
The Company and the accredited
investors may elect in the future to effect additional exchanges of the notes for common stock. Any such future exchanges would be negotiated
and agreed to among the parties.
