Note 1 - Business Organization and Nature of Operations

 

CohBar, Inc. (“CohBar,” “its” or the “Company”) is a clinical stage biotechnology company and a leader in the research and development of mitochondria based therapeutics (MBTs), a novel and emerging class of therapeutics that have the potential to treat a wide range of diseases associated with aging and metabolic dysfunction, including non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), fibrotic diseases, cancer, cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.

 

The Company’s primary activities include the research and development of its MBT pipeline, securing intellectual property protection for its discoveries and assets, managing collaborations with contract research organizations (“CROs”) and academic institutions and raising capital. To date, the Company has not generated any revenues from operations and does not expect to generate any revenues in the near future. The Company has financed its operations primarily with proceeds from sales of its equity securities, private placements, the exercise of outstanding warrants and stock options and the issuance of debt instruments. 

 

The unaudited interim condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
