Prospectus Summary

 

The following summary highlightsselected information contained elsewhere in this prospectus and/or incorporated by reference herein, and does not contain all of the informationthat you should consider in making your investment decision. Before investing in our securities, you should carefully read this entireprospectus and the information incorporated by reference herein.

 

Our Company

 

We were formed as a clinicalstage biotechnology company, focused on the development of therapeutics for unmet medical needs in chronic pain, inflammation and fibrosisby employing innovative research, and, where appropriate, combination therapy. In September 2024, we completed the acquisition of certainsource code and intellectual property relating to an online blockchain casino, and moving forward, we plan to focus the majority of ouroperations on the creation of the online blockchain casino, while still working to complete the development of certain prior therapeuticsfor unmet medical needs.

 

Biotechnology Product Development

 

We have three product developmentplatforms:

 

  fibrosis and anti-tumor necrosis factor (“TNF”);

 

  drugs which are derivatives of cannabidiol (“CBD”) or cannabigerol (“CBG”) analogues (“SCAs”); and

 

  alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (“α7nAChR”).

 

Dueto restrictions in the Company’s resources, the Company has slowed down research and development activities significantly in theSCA platform and the anti-TNF platform, and the Company has not made progress in the α7nAChR platform and has suspended furtherresearch and development activity in this program in the meantime.

 

TheCompany is currently evaluating all options to monetize its existing assets, in addition to exploring other strategic alternatives tomaximize value for its stockholders. Potential strategic alternatives that may be explored or evaluated by the Company as part of thisprocess include, but are not limited to, an acquisition, merger, reverse merger, other business combination, sale of assets, licensingor other strategic transactions involving the Company.

 

Planned iGaming CasinoOperations

 

On September 29, 2024, weentered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Elray Resources, Inc. (“Elray”).Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Elray agreed to sell us certain source code and intellectual property relating to an online blockchaincasino (the “Purchased Assets”) in consideration for 1,000,000 shares of newly designated Series B ConvertiblePreferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”, and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion thereof, the “ConversionShares”) and warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Purchase Warrants”and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise thereof, the “Purchase Warrant Shares”). The acquisition of thePurchased Assets was completed on September 30, 2024.

 

We are planning to strategicallyenter into the online gaming industry, utilizing the Purchased Assets, i.e., our newly acquired “back-end” gaming platform,which incorporates blockchain technology and full cryptocurrency operability (the “Gaming Technology Platform”). TheCompany plans to use this technology platform to establish a blockchain-based business aimed at the global iGaming market. Initially focusingon B2C (business-to-consumer) online casinos, the Company also plans to expand into a B2B (business-to-business) model, offering a seamlessblockchain-enabled technology platform for gaming operators worldwide. In addition, management has identified certain global iGaming industrycharacteristics and trends that they believe make potential acquisition opportunities attractive. Management believes that the combinationof the Gaming Technology Platform and the strength of a Nasdaq listing make the Company an attractive consolidation vehicle for the iGamingindustry, and plan to work to identify potential acquisitions (although no targets exist at present).

Amendment to August 2023 Offering

 

On October 11, 2023, the Companyreceived a letter from Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), stating that Nasdaqhad determined that the Company failed to comply with Nasdaq’s shareholder approval requirements set forth in Listing Rule 5635(d),which requires prior shareholder approval for transactions, other than public offerings, involving the issuance of 20% or more of thepre-transaction shares outstanding at less than the Minimum Price. The letter from Nasdaq referred to the August 2023 Offering and requestedthe Company to submit a plan of compliance no later than November 27, 2023. On November 9, 2023, the Company submitted a plan of complianceto Nasdaq, and on November 14, 2023, Nasdaq provided a letter of extension to the Company.

 

Pursuant to the complianceplan submitted to Nasdaq, on November 28, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the August 2023 Offering (“Amendmentto the August 2023 Offering”), whereby (i) the Purchaser agreed to pay an additional $830,769 in connection with the repricingof the August 2023 Shares and August 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Repricing Amount”), (ii) the Company agreed toissue to the Purchaser additional pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 257,205 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $0.0019per share (the “Additional Pre- Funded Warrants”), and warrants to purchase up to 477,058 shares of common stock, withan exercise price of $3.23 per share (the “Additional Common Warrants”, and collectively with the Additional Pre-FundedWarrants, the “Additional Warrants”), and (iii) the Company and the Purchaser agreed to enter into a warrant amendmentagreement (as described below).

Inducement Agreement

 

OnOctober 16, 2024, we entered into a warrant inducement agreement (the “Inducement Agreement”) with Armistice CapitalMaster Fund Ltd. (the “Holder”) of 477,058 Additional Common Warrants and 473,011 of the Existing Common Warrants (collectively,the “Exercised Warrants”), pursuant to which the Holder agreed to exercise for cash the Exercised Warrants to purchase950,069 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.48 per share ($0.25 greater than the $3.23 per share exercise price of suchExercised Warrants). OnOctober 16 and 17, 2024, the Exercised Warrants were exercised in full for cash by the Holder and the Company received $3,306,240 beforededucting financial advisory fees and other expenses payable by us.

 

Inconsideration of the Holder’s agreement to exercise the Exercised Warrants in accordance with the Inducement Agreement, the Companyagreed to issue new unregistered Warrants to Purchase Shares of Common Stock (the “October 2024 Warrants”) to purchasea number of shares of common stock equal to 200% of the number of shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the Exercised Warrants,i.e., warrants to purchase up to 1,900,138 shares of common stock (the “October 2024 Warrant Shares”). The October2024 Warrants were immediately exercisable and have a term of exercise of five years.

 

TheCompany agreed in the Inducement Agreement to file a registration statement on Form S-1 to register the resale of the New Warrant Sharesupon exercise of the October 2024 Warrants (the “Resale Registration Statement”) by November 15, 2024, and to use commerciallyreasonable efforts to have such Resale Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission within sixty (60) calendar days followingthe date of filing with the Commission (or ninety (90) calendar days following the date of filing with the Commission in the event ofa ‘full review’ by the Commission) and to keep the Resale Registration Statement effective at all times until no holder ofthe October 2024 Warrants owns any October 2024 Warrants or October 2024 Warrant Shares. In the event that the Company fails to timelydeliver to the Holder the October 2024 Warrant Shares without restrictive legends, the Company has agreed to pay certain liquidated damagesto the Holder. The registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part is the required Resale Registration Statement, which wastimely filed.

 

TheCompany has used, and plans to continue to use, the net proceeds from these transactions to advance the commercialization of thePurchased Assets recently acquired by the Company, and for working capital, and other general corporate purposes.

 

TheOctober 2024 Warrants have an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The exercise price and the number of shares of common stock issuableupon exercise of each October 2024 Warrant are subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions,stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the common stock. In addition, in certain circumstances,upon a fundamental transaction, a holder of October 2024 Warrants will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of the October 2024 Warrants,the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that such holder would have received had they exercised the October 2024 Warrantsimmediately prior to the fundamental transaction.

 

TheCompany may not affect the exercise of October 2024 Warrants, and the applicable Holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion ofany such October 2024 Warrant, which, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of shares of common stockbeneficially owned by the holder of such October 2024 Warrant (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable,of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determinedin accordance with the terms of such October 2024 Warrants.

 

TheCompany engaged A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“A.G.P.”) to provide exclusive financial services in connection withthe transactions summarized above and, pursuant to a Financial Advisory Agreement between the Company and A.G.P., paid A.G.P. a financialadvisory fee of $232,000, and an alternative transaction fee of $100,000. In addition, we reimbursed A.G.P. for its accountable legalexpenses in connection with the exercise of the Exercised Warrants and the issuance of the October 2024 Warrants of $65,000 and $10,000of non-accountable expenses. In addition, we paid A.G.P. $29,923, half of the financial advisory fees due in connection with advisoryfees in 2023 and agreed to pay $29,923 for advisory fees in the future. As of October 31, 2024, a total of $436,923 related to the aforementionedtransaction has been paid to A.G.P in addition to the $29,923 of advisory fee, and there is a balance outstanding of $29,923 for the aforementionedadvisory fees.

Summary Risk Factors

 

We face risks and uncertaintiesrelated to our business, many of which are beyond our control. In particular, risks associated with our business include:

   

Our need for additional financing, both near term and longterm, to support our operations, our ability to raise such financing as needed, the terms of such financing, if available, potentialsignificant dilution associated therewith, and covenants and restrictions we may need to comply with in connection with such funding.

 

Our ability to create or purchase a front end for our backend blockchain casino intellectual property assets, commercialize our planned blockchain casino, obtain required licenses and customers,and ultimately generate revenues through such operations.

 

The fact that we are currently an iGaming/clinical stage biotechnologycompany that had no revenue for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2024, and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022,and may not generate significant revenue for the near term.

 

Our dependence on the success of our future product candidates,some of which may not receive regulatory approval or be successfully commercialized; problems in our manufacturing process for our newproducts and/or our failure to comply with manufacturing regulations, or unexpected increases in our manufacturing costs; problems withdistribution of our products; and failure to adequately market our products.

 

The fact that our accounts payable are significant, and wedo not currently have sufficient funds to pay such accounts payable, a large portion of which are past due.

 

Risks from intense competition from companies with greaterresources and experience than we have.

 

Our ability to receive regulatory approvals for our productcandidates, and the timeline and costs associated therewith, including the uncertainties associated with the clinical development andregulatory approval of our drug candidates, including potential delays in the enrollment and completion of clinical trials, issues raisedby the U.S. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

 

Risks that our future product candidates, if approved by regulatoryauthorities, may be unable to achieve the expected market acceptance and, consequently, limit our ability to generate revenue from newproducts.

 

The fact that the majority of our license agreements providethe licensors and/or counter-parties the right to use, own and/or exploit such licensed intellectual property.

 

5

Risk Factors

 

Investing in shares of ourcommon stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider and evaluate the risksdescribed in the “Risk Factors” section in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as any updates to thoserisk factors in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and below, together with all of the other information appearing in or incorporatedby reference into this prospectus, before deciding whether to purchase any of the common stock being offered. The risks described in thesedocuments are not the only ones we face, but those that we consider to be material. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic,business, competitive, regulatory or other factors that could have material adverse effects on our future results. Our business, financialcondition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price of shares of our commonstock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the sectionentitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.

 

Sales of substantialamounts of our common stock by the selling stockholder, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect theprice of our common stock.

 

The sale by the selling stockholderof a significant number of shares of common stock could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition,the perception in the public markets that the selling stockholder may sell all or a portion of its shares as a result of theregistration of such shares for resale pursuant to this prospectus could also in and of itself have a material adverse effecton the market price of our common stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of common stock or theavailability of those shares of common stock for sale will have on the market price of our common stock.

 

We currently havean illiquid and volatile market for our common stock, and the market for our common stock is and may remain illiquid and volatile in thefuture.

 

We currently have a highlysporadic, illiquid and volatile market for our common stock, which market is anticipated to remain sporadic, illiquid and volatile inthe future. During the last 52 weeks our common stock has traded as high as $17.75 per share and as low as $1.16 per share. The marketprice of our common stock may continue to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations. Our financial performance, government regulatoryaction, tax laws, interest rates, and market conditions in general could have a significant impact on the future market price of our commonstock.

investors’ general perception of us and our business.

 

Our common stock is listedon the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ATNF.” Our stockprice may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. The stock markets in general haveexperienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad marketfluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. Additionally, general economic, political and market conditions,such as recessions, inflation, war, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of ourcommon stock. Due to the limited volume of our shares which trade, we believe that our stock prices (bid, ask and closing prices) maynot be related to our actual value, and not reflect the actual value of our common stock. You should exercise caution before making aninvestment in us.

 

Stock markets in general andour stock price in particular have recently experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionateto the operating performance of those companies and our company. For example, during 2022, the closing sales prices of our common stockranged from a post-split adjusted high of $1,482.04 per share to a low of $23.56 per share, during fiscal 2023, the closing sales pricesof our common stock ranged from a high of $100.70 per share to a low of $3.21 per share and during fiscal 2024 (through the date of thisprospectus), the closing sales prices of our common stock ranged from a post-split adjusted high of $6.47 per share to a low of $1.18per share. During this time, we do not believe that we have experienced any material changes in our financial condition or results ofoperations that would explain such price volatility or trading volume; however, we have sold equity which was dilutive to existing stockholders.These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our securities. Additionally, these and other external factorshave caused and may continue to cause the market price and demand for our common stock to fluctuate substantially, which may limit orprevent our stockholders from readily selling their shares of our common stock and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of ourcommon stock.

Additionally, as a resultof the illiquidity of our common stock, investors may not be interested in owning our common stock because of the inability to acquireor sell a substantial block of our common stock at one time. Such illiquidity could have an adverse effect on the market price of ourcommon stock. In addition, a shareholder may not be able to borrow funds using our common stock as collateral because lenders may be unwillingto accept the pledge of securities having such a limited market. An active trading market for our common stock may not develop or, ifone develops, may not be sustained.

 

In the past, many companiesthat have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may bethe target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert ourmanagement’s attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business.

 

The exercise of theoutstanding options and warrants, and the sale of common stock upon exercise thereof, may adversely affect the trading price of our securities.

 

As of the date of this prospectus,we had 22,891 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, with a weighted average exercise price of$61.92 per share; (a) 15,132 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding public warrants exercisable at an exerciseprice of $4,370.00 per share, (b) 6,748 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain outstanding private placementwarrants at an exercise price of $1,900.00 per share, (d) 6,579 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain outstandingprivate placement warrants at an exercise price of $2,850.00 per share, (e) 4,049 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of certainoutstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.23 per share, (f) 3,000,000 shares of commonstock issuable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $1.68 per share, (g)168 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants which expire on May 2, 2025, and (h) 1,900,138 shares of common stock issuableupon exercise of the October 2024 Warrants with an exercise price of $1.50 per share. For the life of the options and warrants, the holdershave the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of our common stock without assuming the risk of ownership. The issuanceof shares upon the exercise of outstanding securities will also dilute the ownership interests of our existing stockholders.

 

The availability of theseshares for public resale, as well as any actual resales of these shares, could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.We cannot predict the size of future issuances of our common stock pursuant to the exercise of outstanding options or warrants or conversionof other securities, or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of shares of our common stock may have on the market priceof our common stock. Sales or distributions of substantial amounts of our common stock (including shares issued in connection with anacquisition), or the perception that such sales could occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

 

In addition, the common stockissuable upon exercise/conversion of outstanding convertible securities may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the marketprice of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demandfor that stock. When this happens the price of our stock will decrease, and any additional shares which stockholders attempt to sell inthe market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb shares sold by holders ofour outstanding convertible securities, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.

There may not be sufficientliquidity in the market for our securities in order for investors to sell their shares. The market price of our common stock may continueto be volatile.

 

The market price of our commonstock will likely continue to be highly volatile. Some of the factors that may materially affect the market price of our common stockare beyond our control, such as conditions or trends in the industry in which we operate or sales of our common stock. This situationis attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts,stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even ifwe came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as oursor purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable.

 

As a consequence, there maybe periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a mature issuer whichhas a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price.It is possible that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will not develop or be sustained, or that tradinglevels will not continue. These factors may materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our performance.In addition, the public stock markets have experienced extreme price and trading volume volatility. This volatility has significantlyaffected the market prices of securities of many companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of the specificcompanies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Stockholders may bediluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through the issuance of additional shares of ourcommon stock.

 

Wherever possible, our Boardwill attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration willconsist of restricted shares of our common stock or where shares are to be issued to our officers, directors and applicable consultants.Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the stockholders, but subject to Nasdaq rules and regulations (which generallyrequire stockholder approval for any transactions which would result in the issuance of more than 20% of our then outstanding shares ofcommon stock or voting rights representing over 20% of our then outstanding shares of stock, subject to certain exceptions), to issueall or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock. In addition, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of ourcommon stock, possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing stockholders,which may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also serve to enhance existingmanagement’s ability to maintain control of the Company because the shares may be issued to parties or entities committed to supportingexisting management.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of DelawareLaw and our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

We are subject to the provisionsof Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) regulating corporate takeovers. This statute preventscertain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:

 

a stockholder who owns 15% or more of our outstanding votingstock (otherwise known as an “interested stockholder”);

 

an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

 

an associate of an interested stockholder, for three yearsfollowing the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

 

A “business combination”includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

 

our Board of Directors approves the transaction that madethe stockholder an “interested stockholder,” prior to the date of the transaction;

 

after the completion of the transaction that resulted in thestockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transactioncommenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or

  

on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the businesscombination is approved by our Board of Directors and authorized at a meeting of our stockholders, and not by written consent, by anaffirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

 

22

 

 

Our Certificate of Incorporationprovides that our Board of Directors be classified into two classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gaincontrol of our Board of Directors only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.

 

Our authorized but unissuedcommon stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety ofcorporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence ofauthorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtaincontrol of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
