Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Business
Bluejay Diagnostics, Inc. (the “Company”), which commenced its activities on March 20, 2015, is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware.
The Company is a pre-revenue diagnostic company that aims to develop and market a more cost efficient, rapid, near patient product for triage, diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression.
The Company is utilizing the Symphony technology platform and Symphony IL-6 test licensed from Toray Industries, Inc. of Japan (see Note 3). The Company is also developing biomarkers for detection of other diseases such as hsTNT/I for myocardial injury and NT-proBNP for cardiac heart failure.
On June 4, 2021, the Company created Bluejay Spinco, LLC, (“SpinCo”) a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for purposes of further development of the Company’s ALLEREYE diagnostic test. ALLEREYE is a point-of-care device that offers healthcare providers a cost effective, reliable, easy to use solution for diagnosis of Allergic Conjunctivitis. ALLEREYE received clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) in October 2017.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other companies in its industries, including rapid technological change, competition from larger biotechnology companies and dependence on key personnel.
The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business continues to be highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as the responses that the Company, other businesses and governments are taking continue to evolve. Furthermore, capital markets and economies worldwide have also been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is possible that it could cause a lasting national and/or global economic recession. Policymakers around the globe have responded with fiscal policy actions to support the healthcare industry and economy as a whole. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may in the future materially impact the Company’s financial condition, liquidity or results of operations is uncertain.

Liquidity
Since
its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning, business development, research and development,
and raising capital. The income potential of the Company’s business and market are unproven. Successful transition to attaining
profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. As of March
31, 2022, the Company had $
The
Company believes it has sufficient cash to meet its funding requirements for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of this report.
However, the Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since its inception and has an accumulated
deficit of $
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) consistent with those applied in, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s audited financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Form 10-K. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2022, its results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, in accordance with US GAAP. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements, as allowed by the relevant U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that its disclosures are adequate to ensure that the information presented is not misleading. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, or any other interim period within this fiscal year.
On
June 7, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a stock dividend of
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no changes to the significant accounting policies as described in the 2021 Audited Financial Statements with the exception of the addition of significant account policies related to inventory and leases.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company believes judgment is involved in accounting for the fair value-based measurement of stock-based compensation, accruals, convertible notes and warrants. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, and those differences could be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Leases
Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). The Company has adopted ASC 842 using the optional transition method and, as a result, there have been no reclassification of prior comparable periods due to this adoption.
The Company has arrangements involving the lease of facilities. Under ASC 842, at inception of the arrangement, the Company determines whether the contract is or contains a lease and whether the lease should be classified as an operating or a financing lease. This determination, among other considerations, involves an assessment of whether the Company can control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all to the economic benefits or outputs from the asset.
The Company recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities as of the lease commencement date based on the net present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. ASC 842 requires the leases to use the rate implicit in the lease unless it is not readily determinable and then it may use its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) to discount the future minimum lease payments. Most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, the Company uses its IBR to discount the future minimum lease payments. The Company determines its IBR with its credit rating and other economic information available as of the commencement date, as well as the identified lease term. During the assessment of the lease term, the Company considers its renewal options and extensions within the arrangements and the Company includes these options when it’s reasonably certain to extend the term of the lease.
The Company leases include both lease and non-lease components. Consideration is allocated to the lease and non-lease components based on estimated standalone prices. The Company has elected to exclude non-lease components from the calculation of its ROU assets and lease liabilities.
The Company has lease arrangements that contain incentives for tenant improvements as well as fixed rent escalation clauses. For contracts with tenant improvement incentives that are determined to be leasehold improvements and the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, it records a reduction to the lease liability and amortizes the incentive over the identified term of the lease as a reduction to rent expense. The Company records rental expense on a straight-line basis over the identified lease term on contracts with rent escalation clauses.
Inventory
Inventories, which are mainly comprised of finished goods, are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with the cost being determined on a weighted-average basis. The cost of finished goods consists mainly of purchase price, freight, and custom duties. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less any applicable selling costs. As of March 31, 2022 there was no reserve for excess or obsolete inventory.
Stock-based compensation
Share-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees, directors and non-employees is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Share-based compensation expense for awards granted to non-employees is determined using the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of options granted. The Company recognizes the compensation cost of share-based awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. For stock awards for which vesting is subject to performance – based milestones, the expense is recorded over the implied service period after the point when the achievement of the milestone is probable, or the performance condition has been achieved.
7
The Company recognizes forfeitures related to employee share-based payments when they occur. Forfeited options are recorded as a reduction to stock compensation expense.
Research and development expenses
Development costs incurred in the research and development of new products are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs include, but are not limited to, salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation, laboratory supplies, fees for professional service providers and costs associated with product development efforts, including preclinical studies and clinical trials.
The Company estimates preclinical study and clinical trial expenses based on the services performed, pursuant to contracts with research institutions and clinical research organizations that conduct and manage preclinical studies and clinical trials on its behalf.
Segment Reporting
Management has determined that the Company has one operating segment, which is consistent with the Company structure and how it manages the business. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all of the Company’s assets were located in the United States.
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock and if-converted methods. Dilutive common stock equivalents are comprised of convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, options outstanding under the Company’s stock option plan and warrants. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding as inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive.
Potentially dilutive securities not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be anti -dilutive are as follows (in common stock equivalent shares):

2022 | 2021 | |||||||

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
8
In
February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The new guidance requires
the recognition of lease liabilities, representing future minimum lease payments, on a discounted basis, and corresponding right-of-use
assets on a balance sheet for most leases, along with requirements for enhanced disclosures to give financial statement users the ability
to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the provisions of
ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2022 and elected to implement the transition package of practical expedients permitted within the new standard,
which included (i) not reassessing whether expired or existing contract contain leases, (ii) not reassessing lease classification, and
(iii) not revaluing initial direct costs for existing leases. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of initial right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities of approximately $

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in our forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Overview
We are a medical diagnostics company focused on improving patient outcomes through cost efficient, rapid, near-patient products for triage and monitoring of disease progression. We believe there is a market need for an on-site and rapid diagnostic system that can be employed for testing and monitoring. Our diagnostic system, which we refer to as “Symphony,” is an exclusively licensed, patented, low-cost, system that consists of a small footprint instrument and single-use indication specific test cartridges, that we believe, if cleared, authorized, or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), can provide a solution to this market need with rapid, laboratory quality results in approximately 24 minutes, in the clinic, Intensive Care Unit (“ICU”), Emergency Room (“ER”) and other hospital and clinical setting settings where rapid and reliable results are required. Currently, testing is generally performed in a laboratory, and the transportation and logistics of transporting the samples to the lab and obtaining the result takes between 8-48 hours. Our platform is a sample-to-result system that has been shown in a clinical study to provide results in 24 minutes. Our business model is to generate revenue from the sale of the table-top Symphony system, and from the sale of single-use indication specific cartridges that are used by the Symphony system for the diagnostic test. Once the test material (generally a small volume blood sample) is transferred to a single-use indication specific Symphony cartridge, no additional sample preparation or pre-processing is required.
Since inception, we have incurred net losses from operations each year and we expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future, at least until we are cleared, authorized or approved by the FDA. We incurred net losses of approximately $2.0 million and $194,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We had $17.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and a $9.7 million accumulated deficit at March 31, 2022, with net cash used in operating activities of approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Research and Development
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were approximately $695,000, as compared to approximately $24,000 for the comparable period in 2021. The increase in research and development expenses is due to continued clinical studies and scale-up manufacturing of the Symphony IL-6 Test.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were approximately $1.3 million, as compared to approximately $140,000 for the comparable period in 2021. The increase in general and administrative was expected, as the Company invested in scalable infrastructure designed to support its growing operations and $498,000 related to expenses incurred for public company operations due to the completion of our initial public offering in November 2021.
Marketing and Business Development
Marketing and business development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were approximately $54,000 as compared to approximately $69,000 for the comparable period in 2021. These expenses will be limited while we are pre-revenue, with the expectation to increase the investment in this area commensurate with the growth of our commercial operations.
Liquidity and Capital Commitments
Liquidity
We have funded our operations through net proceeds from our IPO on November 10, 2021. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $17.1 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. We believe that our available cash resources will be sufficient to fund our planned operations and capital expenditure requirements for at least twelve months.
Summary Statement of Cash Flows
The following table sets forth the primary sources and uses of cash and cash equivalents for each of the periods presented.

Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents | $ | (1,923,601 | ) | $ | (663,371 | ) |
Net cash used in operating activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we used $1.9 million in operating activities, an increase of $1.5 million as compared to approximately $373,000 in the comparable period in 2021. The increase in net cash used in operations was primarily due to increases in inventory, personnel costs and expenses incurred for public company operations.
15
Net cash used in investing activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we used approximately $46,000 in investing activities, an increase of 100% as compared to the comparable period in 2021. The increase in net cash used in investing was primarily due to capital purchases of laboratory equipment.
Net cash used in financing activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we used no cash in financing activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 we used approximately $291,000 in financing activities, primarily due to principal paydowns on notes payable.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements (under the caption “Recently Issued Accounting Standards”).
Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status
We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. We are using the extended transition period for any other new or revised accounting standards during the period in which we remain an emerging growth company.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of our first fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of this offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenues of at least $1.07 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th and (ii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.
We are also a “smaller reporting company,” meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million. If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and, similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation
16
JOBS Act Accounting Election
The recently enacted JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies.
We have implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and may impact our financial statements and we do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2022. We continue to review our disclosure controls and procedures and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our Company’s business. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time in the ordinary course of our business, we may be involved in legal proceedings, the outcomes of which may not be determinable. The results of litigation are inherently unpredictable. Any claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, require significant amounts of management time and result in diversion of significant resources. We are not able to estimate an aggregate amount or range of reasonably possible losses for those legal matters for which losses are not probable and estimable. We have insurance policies covering potential losses where such coverage is cost effective.
We are not at this time involved in any legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
For a discussion of potential risks or uncertainties, see “Risk Factors” in the Company’s 2021 annual report on Form 10-K on file with the SEC. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in such registration statement.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
None.
