1.

Nature of Business

 

GeoVax Labs, Inc. (“GeoVax”, “us”, “we” or the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing human vaccines and immunotherapies against infectious diseases and solid tumor cancers using novel proprietary platforms.

 

The Company’s primary development priority is the advancement of GEO-MVA, a Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vaccine candidate for mpox, smallpox, and other poxviruses. The program is advancing under an expedited regulatory pathway, with plans to initiate a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial in the second half of 2026. The Company’s lead clinical program in oncology is Gedeptin®, a novel oncolytic solid tumor gene-directed therapy, which recently completed a multicenter Phase 1/2 clinical trial for advanced head and neck cancers and for which a Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Gedeptin in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) as first-line treatment of patients with squamous cell head and neck cancer is planned to initiate during the first half of 2027. The Company is also developing GEO-CM04S1, a next-generation multi-antigen COVID-19 vaccine which is currently being evaluated in Phase 2 clinical trials.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

We disclosed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 those accounting policies that we consider significant in determining our results of operations and financial position. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there have been no material changes to, or in the application of, the accounting policies previously identified and described in the Form 10-K.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of GeoVax Labs, Inc. and GeoVax, Inc. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial statements are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring entries, which we believe to be necessary for a fair presentation of interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. We expect our operating results to fluctuate for the foreseeable future; therefore, period-to-period comparisons should not be relied upon as predictive of the results in future periods.

 

We are devoting substantially all of our present efforts to research and development of our vaccine and immunotherapy candidates and will require additional funding to continue our research and development activities. We believe that our existing cash resources will be sufficient to continue our planned operations into June 2026. We plan to pursue additional capital resources through public or private equity or debt financings, government grants/contracts, arrangements with strategic partners, or from other sources. There can be no assurance that additional funding will be available on favorable terms or at all. These factors collectively raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that we will be successful in securing the additional capital required to continue the Company’s planned operations, but that our plans do not fully alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, and all share and per share information contained herein, have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split described in Note 5.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there have been no new accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements which we expect to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Commitments

 

Operating Leases. During 2025, we leased combined office and laboratory space in the metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia area under an operating lease agreement which expired on December 31, 2025. In August and September 2025, we entered into new agreements for the lease of laboratory space and office space. Each of these agreements provided access to the respective spaces beginning November 1, 2025 for three-year original terms, with periodic base rent adjustments throughout the terms. During April 2026, the landlord for the facility where our laboratory operations are conducted informed us that the facility is now planned for closure effective September 30, 2026; therefore, our lease will end as of that date. As of March 31, 2026, the remaining terms of our office lease and laboratory lease are 2.6 years and 0.5 years, respectively.

 

Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet represent the present value of the remaining lease payments over the remaining lease terms. Payments for additional fees to cover the Company's share of certain facility expenses are not included in operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities. We use our incremental borrowing rate to calculate the present value of its lease payments, as the implicit rates in the leases are not readily determinable. As a result of the modification to our laboratory lease discussed above, we remeasured the lease liability and made a corresponding adjustment to reduce the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset; the adjusted balances are reflected in our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026.

License Agreements. We have entered into license agreements for various technologies and patent rights associated with our product development activities. These agreements may contain provisions for upfront payments, milestone fees due upon the achievement of selected development and regulatory events, minimum annual royalties or other fees, and royalties based on future net sales. Due to the uncertainty of the achievement and timing of the contingent events requiring payment under these agreements, the amounts to be paid by us in the future are not determinable.

 

Other Commitments. In the normal course of business, we enter into various contracts and purchase commitments including those with contract research organizations (“CROs”) for clinical trial services, contract manufacturing organizations (“CMOs”) for production of materials for use in our clinical trials, and other independent contractors or academic institutions for preclinical research activities and other services and products. Most contracts are generally cancellable, with notice, at the Company’s option. Payments due upon cancellation may consist of payments for services provided or expenses incurred to date, or cancellation penalties depending on the time of cancellation.

Overview and Recent Developments

 

GeoVax is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing human vaccines and immunotherapies against infectious diseases and cancers using novel proprietary platforms.

 

Our corporate strategy is to advance, protect, and strategically leverage our proprietary vaccine and immunotherapy platforms to develop differentiated preventive and therapeutic solutions for infectious diseases and solid tumors. We aim to efficiently progress our product candidates through clinical development and pursue regulatory approval and commercialization through internal development and selective external licensing and partnership arrangements. We also work collaboratively with academic, governmental, and industry partners to validate our technologies, support development efforts and enhance the strategic value of our pipeline.

 

GeoVax’s primary near-term strategic development priority is GEO-MVA, an MVA-based vaccine candidate for mpox and smallpox. GEO-MVA is being advanced on an expedited regulatory pathway in Europe and. is intended to address a documented global supply constraint for orthopoxvirus vaccines. The Company believes GEO-MVA is well-positioned to support both civilian public health needs and broader preparedness and biodefense objectives. The advancement of GEO-MVA represents the Company’s most near-term opportunity to achieve regulatory approval and potential commercialization.

 

Our programs are in various stages of development. Key updates for our lead programs are outlined below:

GEO-MVA  mpox/smallpox Vaccine Candidate:

 

o

GEO-MVA is a MVA vaccine candidate intended for protection against mpox and smallpox. MVA is the strain recommended by both the World Health Organization (WHO) and CDC for these indications and is currently used in the U.S. Strategic National Stockpile.

 

o

Following scientific advice from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in May 2025, we intend to proceed directly to a Phase 3 trial, bypassing traditional Phase 1 and 2 studies, subject to final protocol and regulatory alignment. The Phase 3 study is expected to initiate in late 2026.

 

o

A cGMP clinical drug substance batch of GEO-MVA has been successfully produced to support clinical development.

 

10

 


 

Gedeptin® -- Gene-Directed Enzyme Prodrug Therapy (GDEPT):

 

o

Gedeptin has successfully completed a Phase 1/2 clinical trial (NCT03754933) in patients with advanced HNSCC. This trial was funded in part by the FDA pursuant to its Orphan Products Clinical Trials Grants Program.

 

o

Planning activities are underway for a Phase 2 trial to evaluate the addition of intra-tumoral Gedeptin and intravenous fludarabine to recently approved neoadjuvant pembrolizumab as first-line treatment of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma eligible for curative surgery. Trial initiation is targeted for initiation in 2027.

GEO-CM04S1  COVID-19 Vaccine Candidate:

 

o

GEO-CM04S1 is undergoing multiple Phase 2 clinical studies:

 

One trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04977024) is evaluating its use in immunocompromised patients with hematologic malignancies (e.g., following stem cell transplant or CAR-T therapy). Published data from this study’s safety lead-in showed GEO-CM04S1 induced both neutralizing antibody and T cell responses in this high-risk population.

 

A second trial (NCT04639466) is assessing GEO-CM04S1 as a heterologous booster following primary mRNA vaccination. Interim results have shown statistically significant increases in neutralizing antibodies across multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants, including Omicron XBB 1.5.

 

A third, investigator-initiated trial (NCT05672355) is evaluating GEO-CM04S1 versus an mRNA-based vaccine in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The mRNA vaccine arm was discontinued following an interim safety and efficacy review; the GEO-CM04S1 arm continues.

Manufacturing Platform  Continuous Avian Cell Line:

 

o

GeoVax is developing a continuous avian cell line manufacturing platform for production of its MVA-based vaccines. This platform will enable scalable, high-yield production of vaccine candidates under current cGMP conditions. Thus far, initial process development steps in support of cGMP production of GEO-MVA in the continuous avian cell line have been achieved Unlike traditional egg-based production methods, continuous cell line manufacturing offers greater efficiency, reproducibility and flexibility, supporting rapid response capabilities for emerging infectious diseases and biothreats. This approach is aligned with U.S. and international priorities for modernizing vaccine manufacturing and ensuring supply chain resilience.

 

Financial Overview

 

Revenue

 

Our revenues to date have been related to government grants and contracts and other collaborative arrangements in support of our product development activities. We have not generated any revenue to date from the sale of the products we are developing. Our product candidates will require significant additional research and development efforts, including extensive preclinical and clinical testing. All product candidates that we advance to clinical testing will require regulatory approval prior to commercial use and will require significant costs for commercialization.

 

Research and development expenses

 

Since our inception, we have focused and we continue to focus significant resources on our research and development activities, including developing our vector platform and analytical testing methods, conducting preclinical studies, developing manufacturing processes, and conducting clinical trials. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of the following:

personnel costs in our research and development functions, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation;

expenses incurred under agreements with CROs, for the conduct of clinical trials;

expenses incurred under agreements with contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) that manufacture product used in clinical trials;

expenses incurred in procuring materials and for analytical and release testing services required to produce vaccine candidates used in clinical trials;

process development expenses to improve the efficiency and yield of the bulk vaccine;

laboratory supplies, vendor expenses and other third-party contract expenses related to preclinical research activities;

technology license fees;

consultant expenses for services supporting our clinical, regulatory and manufacturing activities; and

facilities, depreciation and other general overhead expenses.

 

11

 

We expect our research and development expenditures to increase as we advance our existing and future product candidates into and through clinical trials and pursue regulatory approval, especially with regard to the ongoing and planned GEO-CM04S1, Gedeptin and GEO-MVA clinical programs. We do not provide forward-looking estimates of costs and time to complete our research programs due to the many uncertainties associated with biotechnology research and development. Due to these uncertainties, our future expenditures are likely to be highly volatile in future periods depending on the outcomes of the trials and studies. As we obtain data from preclinical studies and clinical trials, we may elect to discontinue or delay certain development programs to focus our resources on more promising product candidates. Completion of preclinical studies and human clinical trials may take several years or more, but the length of time can vary substantially depending upon several factors. The duration and the cost of future clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of the project because of differences arising during development of the human clinical trial protocols, including the length of time required to enroll suitable patient subjects, the number of patients that ultimately participate in the clinical trial, the duration of patient follow-up, and the number of clinical sites included in the clinical trials.

 

General and administrative expenses

 

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs in our executive, finance, business development and other administrative functions, including stock-based compensation. Other general and administrative expenses include consulting fees, professional service fees for accounting and legal services, lease expenses related to our offices, insurance premiums, intellectual property costs incurred in connection with filing and prosecuting patent applications, depreciation and other costs. We expect our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we support expanded research and development activities, prepare for potential commercialization of our current and future product candidates, maintain compliance with requirements of Nasdaq and the SEC, and other general corporate activities.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and adjusts them as necessary. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

For a description of critical accounting policies that require significant judgments and estimates during the preparation of our financial statements, refer to the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our 2025 Annual Report.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Information regarding recent accounting pronouncements is contained in Note 2 to the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are likely or reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Funding Requirements and Sources of Capital

 

To date, we have not generated any product revenue. We do not know when, or if, we will generate any product revenue and we do not expect to generate significant product revenue unless and until we obtain regulatory approval and commercialize one of our current or future product candidates. We anticipate that we will continue to generate losses for the foreseeable future, and we expect the losses to increase as we continue the development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, our product candidates, and begin to commercialize any approved products. We are subject to all of the risks incident to the development of new products, and may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other unknown factors that may harm our business. We anticipate that we will need substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations. We have funded our operations to date primarily from sales of our equity securities and from government grants and clinical trial assistance.

 

During January 2026, we also sold shares of our common stock pursuant to the ATM Program for net proceeds of approximately $71,200.

 

On February 17, 2026, we closed a registered direct offering of our common stock and warrants. Net proceeds after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses were approximately $885,000.

 

During March 2026, holders of our previously issued stock purchase warrants exercised their warrants, resulting in cash proceeds to us of approximately $4,800.

 

On March 31, 2026, we entered into warrant exercise inducement letters with the holders of certain existing warrants whereby the holders agreed to exercise warrants at a reduced exercise price. Net proceeds to us after deducting placement agent commissions and other offering expenses were approximately $762,700.

 

On May 7, 2026, we entered into warrant exercise inducement letters with the holders of certain existing stock purchase warrants, whereby the holders agreed to exercise their warrants. Aggregate net proceeds to us after deducting placement agent commissions and other offering expenses were approximately $535,600.

 

During May 2026, holders of our previously issued stock purchase warrants exercised their warrants, resulting in cash proceeds to us of approximately $70,723.

 

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund our operations into June 2026. We plan to pursue additional cash resources through public or private equity or debt financings, government grants/contracts, arrangements with strategic partners, or from other sources.

 

There can be no assurance that necessary funding will be available on favorable terms or at all. These factors collectively raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that we will be successful in securing the additional capital required to continue the Company’s planned operations, but that our plans do not fully alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern.

 

We will need to continue to raise additional capital to support our future operating activities, including progression of our development programs, preparation for commercialization, and other operating costs. We may fund a significant portion of our ongoing operations through partnering and collaboration agreements which, while reducing our risks and extending our cash runway, would also reduce our share of eventual revenues, if any, from our vaccine candidates. Additionally, we may be able to fund certain activities with assistance from government programs.

 

The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. We may also fund our operations through debt financing, which would result in debt service obligations, and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. If we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market vaccine candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves. Any of these actions could harm our business, results of operations and prospects.

Our forecast of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations is a forward-looking statement that involves risks and uncertainties and is based on assumptions that may prove to be wrong; actual results could vary materially. Our projection takes into consideration contractual commitments we have made, and expect to make, in the normal course of operating our business, which include (i) obligations to our employees, (ii) our lease obligations, (iii) payments due under license agreements for various technologies and patent rights associated with our product development activities, (iv) arrangements with CROs, CMOs, and other third-party vendors for clinical trials services and production of materials for use in our clinical trials, and (v) other various firm purchase commitments and contractual obligations related to production and testing of our product candidates and the general operation of our business.

 

We have based our projections of operating capital requirements on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect, and we may use our available capital resources sooner than we expect. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, which include but are not limited to:

 

the timing and costs of our ongoing and planned clinical trials;

 

the timing and costs of manufacturing material for use in clinical trials;

 

the number and scope of our research programs and the speed at which they are advanced;

 

the progress and success of our preclinical and clinical development activities;

 

the costs involved in prosecuting and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights;

 

the costs to attract and retain skilled personnel;

 

the costs to maintain and expand our infrastructure to support our operations, our product development, and planned future commercialization efforts;

 

the terms and timing of establishing and maintaining collaborations, licenses and other similar arrangements;

 

the costs associated with any products or technologies that we may in-license or acquire; and

 

the costs and timing of regulatory approvals.

 

Item 3

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4

Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

 

There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred 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 on Controls

 

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
