CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2022, or this Report, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements are intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Report or incorporated by reference into this Report are forward-looking statements. These statements include, among other things, predictions of earnings, revenues, expenses or other financial items; plans or expectations with respect to our development activities or business strategy; statements concerning clinical studies and results; statements concerning industry trends; statements regarding anticipated demand for our products, or the products of our competitors; statements relating to manufacturing forecasts, and the potential impact of our relationship with contract manufacturers and original equipment manufacturers on our business; statements relating to the commercialization of our products, assumptions regarding the future cost and potential benefits of our research and development efforts; forecasts of our liquidity position or available cash resources; statements relating to the impact of pending litigation; statements regarding the anticipated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and statements relating to the assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Throughout this Report, we have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by using words such as “may,” “believe,” “will,” “could,” “project,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “should,” “continue,” “potential,” “plan,” “forecasts,” “goal,” “seek,” “intend,” other forms of these words or similar words or expressions or the negative thereof (although not all forward-looking statements contain these words).
We have based our forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about trends affecting our business and industry and other future events. Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy. Forward-looking statements are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties that could cause our future business, financial condition, results of operations or performance, to differ materially from our historical results or those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement contained in this Report.
Some significant factors that may impact our estimates and forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
|
· |
Our inability to generate any significant revenue or achieve profitability; |
|
· |
Our need to raise additional capital in the future; |
|
· |
Our expectations to expand our product development, research and sales and marketing capabilities could give rise to difficulties in managing our growth; |
|
· |
Our limited experience with direct sales and marketing; |
|
· |
The material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that we have identified; |
|
· |
The possibility that we may not be able to continue to operate, as indicated by the “going concern” opinion from our auditors; |
|
· |
Our ability to successfully develop, manufacture, market, and sell our future products; |
|
· |
Our ability to timely obtain necessary regulatory clearances or approvals to distribute and market our future products; |
|
· |
The acceptance by the marketplace of our future products; |
|
· |
The highly competitive and rapidly changing nature of the cancer diagnostics market; |
|
· |
Our reliance on third parties to manufacture and supply our intended products, and such manufacturers’ dependence on third-party suppliers; |
|
· |
Our dependence on third-party distributors; |
|
· |
Protection of our patents, intellectual property and trade secrets; |
|
· |
Business disruptions and economic and other uncertainties surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic; and |
|
· |
Other risks identified elsewhere in this Report, as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. |
In addition, actual results may differ as a result of additional risks and uncertainties of which we are currently unaware or which we do not currently view as material to our business. For these reasons, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Our actual financial condition and results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2022, or our Annual Report, this Report, the documents that we file as exhibits to this Report and the documents that we incorporate by reference into this Report, with the understanding that our future results may be materially different from what we currently expect. The forward-looking statements we make speak only as of the date on which they are made. We expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date hereof to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our opinions or expectations. If we do update or correct any forward-looking statements, readers should not conclude that we will make additional updates or corrections.

VOLITIONRX LIMITED
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
($ expressed in United States Dollars)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The interim consolidated financial statements of VolitionRx Limited (the “Company” or “VolitionRx”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively, are unaudited. These interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the requirements for unaudited interim periods and, consequently, do not include all disclosures required to be made in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2022, and its results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively, are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full-year period. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2022.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company also regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, borrowing rate used in operating lease right-of-use asset and liability valuations, impairment analysis of intangible assets, and valuations of stock-based compensation.
The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations could be affected.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2022 include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries, Singapore Volition Pte. Limited (“Singapore Volition”) and Volition Global Services SRL (“Volition Global”). Singapore Volition has one wholly owned subsidiary, Belgian Volition SRL (“Belgian Volition”). Belgian Volition has four subsidiaries, Volition Diagnostics UK Limited (“Volition Diagnostics”), Volition America, Inc. (“Volition America”), Volition Germany GmbH (“Volition Germany”), and its one majority owned subsidiary Volition Veterinary Diagnostics Development LLC (“Volition Vet”). See Note 8(f), Commitments and Contingencies – Other Commitments, for more information regarding Volition Vet and Volition Germany. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers interest bearing deposits with original maturity dates of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company invests excess cash from its operating cash accounts in overnight investments and reflects these amounts in cash and cash equivalents in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. As of June 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Accounts Receivables
Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. Due to the nature of the accounts receivable balance, the Company believes the risk of doubtful accounts is minimal and therefore no allowance is recorded. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required. The Company may provide for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after the Company has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2022, the accounts receivable balance was $
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” effective January 1, 2019. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenues when the customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenues following the five step model prescribed under ASC 606: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s).
The Company generates product revenues from the sale of its Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Screening Test, from the sale of nucleosomes, and from the sale of Research Use Only kits. In addition, revenue is received from external third parties for Nu.Q® Discover services the Company performs for them in its laboratory.
Revenues, and their respective treatment for financial reporting purposes under ASC 606, are as follows:
Product
The Company includes revenue from product sales recognized during the period in which goods are shipped to third parties, and the amount is deemed collectable from the third parties. These are presented in “Product” in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Services
The Company includes revenue recognized from laboratory services performed in the Company’s laboratory on behalf of third parties in “Services” in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
For each development and/or commercialization agreement that results in revenue, the Company identifies all performance obligations, aside from those that are immaterial, which may include a license to intellectual property and know-how, development activities and/or transition activities. In order to determine the transaction price, in addition to any upfront payment, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration at the outset of the contract either utilizing the expected value or most likely amount method, depending on the facts and circumstances relative to the contract. The Company constrains (reduces) the estimates of variable consideration such that it is probable that a significant reversal of previously recognized revenue will not occur throughout the life of the contract. When determining if variable consideration should be constrained, management considers whether there are factors outside the Company’s control that could result in a significant reversal of revenue. In making these assessments, the Company considers the likelihood and magnitude of a potential reversal of revenue. These estimates are re-assessed each reporting period as required.

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Licensing
The Company includes revenue recognized from the licensing of certain rights to third parties in “Licensing” in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For each development and/or commercialization agreement that results in revenues, the Company identifies all performance obligations, aside from those that are immaterial, which may include a license to intellectual property and know-how, development activities and/or transition activities. In order to determine the transaction price, in addition to any upfront payment, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration at the outset of the contract either utilizing the expected value or most likely amount method, depending on the facts and circumstances relative to the contract.

When determining if variable consideration should be constrained, management considers whether there are factors outside the Company’s control that could result in a significant reversal of revenue. In making these assessments, the Company considers the likelihood and magnitude of a potential reversal of revenue. These estimates are re-assessed each reporting period as required.
Deferred Revenue (Contract Liabilities) and Contract Assets
Deferred revenue consists of amounts for which the Company has an unconditional right to bill, and/or amounts for which payment has been received–including non-refundable amounts, but have not been recognized as revenue because the related performance obligations are deemed incomplete. As at June 30, 2022, the Company recorded $
Contract assets include costs and services incurred on contracts with open performance obligations. These contract assets were immaterial as of June 30, 2022.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. As of June 30, 2022,
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company has functional currencies in Euros, US Dollars and British Pounds Sterling and its reporting currency is the US Dollar. Management has adopted ASC 830-20, “Foreign Currency Matters – Foreign Currency Transactions.”. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. For revenues and expenses, the weighted average exchange rate for the period is used. Gains and losses arising on translation of foreign currency denominated transactions are included in other comprehensive income (loss).

Research and Development
In accordance with ASC 730, the Company follows the policy of expensing its research and development costs in the period in which they are incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized over the employee’s requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The fair value of our stock options and warrants is estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. RSUs are valued based on the closing stock price on the date of grant. Refer to Note 7, Stock-Based Compensation, for further details.
Reclassification
Certain amounts presented in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation. The Company has reclassified the prior period comparative amounts for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements in relation to Research and Development expenses, General and Administrative expenses and Sales and Marketing expenses to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. The Company does not believe there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
COVID-19 Pandemic Impact
As of the date of this filing, there continue to be widespread concerns regarding the ongoing impacts and disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the regions in which the Company operates. As a result of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has experienced and may continue to experience disruptions to its clinical trials, including patient enrollment and sample collection delays.
Although the Company has taken steps to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the extent to which the pandemic will impact its business, financial condition, and results of operations in future periods is highly uncertain and will be affected by a number of factors outside of the Company’s control. These include the duration and extent of the COVID-19 pandemic, the development of new variants of the COVID-19 virus that may be more contagious or virulent than previous versions, the scope of mandated or recommended containment and mitigation measures, the effect of government stabilization and recovery efforts, and the success of vaccine distribution programs.

Note 2 - Going Concern
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception of $
The future of the Company as an operating business will depend on its ability to obtain sufficient capital contributions, financing and/or to generate revenues as may be required to sustain its operations. Management plans to address the above as needed by (a) securing additional grant funds, (b) obtaining additional financing through debt or equity transactions, (c) granting licenses to third parties in exchange for specified up-front and/or milestone payments and (d) developing and commercializing its products on an accelerated timeline. Management continues to exercise tight cost controls to conserve cash.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

b) Operating Lease Right-of-Use Obligations
As all the existing leases subject to the new lease standard ASC 842 (“Leases”) were previously classified as operating leases by the Company, they were similarly classified as operating leases under the new standard. The Company has determined that the identified operating leases did not contain non-lease components and require no further allocation of the total lease cost. Additionally, the agreements in place did not contain information to determine the rate implicit in the leases, so the Company used its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The Company’s weighted average discount rate is

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Report and in our Annual Report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that are based on our current expectations and reflect our plans, estimates and anticipated future financial performance. These statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including those related to the anticipated impact on our business from, and our response to, the COVID-19 pandemic. Our actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this Report and in our Annual Report, as well as our other public filings with the SEC. Please refer to the section of this Report entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information.
Company Overview
Volition is a multi-national epigenetics company that applies its Nucleosomics™ platform through its subsidiaries to develop simple, easy to use, cost-effective blood tests to help diagnose and monitor a range of life-altering diseases, including certain cancers and diseases associated with NETosis, such as sepsis and COVID-19. Our mission is to save lives and improve outcomes for millions of people and animals worldwide. Early diagnosis and monitoring have the potential to not only prolong the life of patients, but also to improve their quality of life.
Our blood tests are based on the science of Nucleosomics™, which is the practice of identifying and measuring nucleosomes in the bloodstream or other bodily fluid which indicates whether a disease is present. While we are primarily focused on human diagnostics and monitoring, we also have a subsidiary focused on animal diagnostics and monitoring.
We have five key pillars of focus, all of which use the same proprietary Nu.Q® platform to commercialize in different areas.
|
· |
Nu.Q® Vet - cost-effective, easy-to-use cancer screening blood test for dogs and other animals |
|
· |
Nu.Q® NETs - monitoring the immune system to save lives |
|
· |
Nu.Q® - detecting cancer early to save lives |
|
· |
Nu.Q® Capture - capturing and concentrating samples for more accurate diagnosis |
|
· |
Nu.Q® Discover - a complete solution to profiling nucleosomes |
Our research and development activities are centered in Belgium, with an innovation laboratory in California, and additional offices in Nevada, London, and Singapore, where we focus on bringing our diagnostic and disease monitoring products to market.
Commercialization Strategy
We believe, given the global prevalence of cancer and diseases associated with NETosis, and the low-cost, accessible and routine nature of our tests, Nu.Q® could potentially be used throughout the world.
We have developed and are continuing to develop a large portfolio of intellectual property (“IP”), centered around the science of identifying and measuring nucleosomes in the bloodstream. We call this science Nucleosomics™. Our technologies have a large range of applications, both in humans and animals, to screen, diagnose, and risk stratify patients, as well as to monitor treatments, disease progression and potential remissions. While we initially focused our technology on cancer screening, we have since broadened the range of indications our blood tests can detect to include several diseases associated with NETosis, including sepsis and COVID-19, which is estimated to be responsible for one in five deaths worldwide.
We aim to remain an IP powerhouse in the Nucleosomics™ space and expect to monetize our IP and technologies through licensing and distribution contracts with companies that have established distribution networks on a worldwide or regional basis, in both human and animal care.
To this end, on March 28, 2022, Volition entered into a master license and product supply agreement with Heska Corporation, (“Heska”) a leading global provider of advanced veterinary diagnostics. In exchange for granting Heska exclusive worldwide rights to sell our Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Screening Test at the point of care for companion animals, Volition received a $10.0 million upfront payment upon signing and is eligible to receive up to an additional $18.0 million based upon the achievement of certain near and mid-term milestones. In addition, Volition has granted Heska non-exclusive rights to sell the Nu.Q® Vet Cancer Screening Test in kit format for companion animals through Heska’s network of central reference laboratories.

Table of Contents |
Following the roll-out of our Nu.Q® Vet canine cancer screening test and Nu.Q® Discover, the next series of products we anticipate launching are as follows:
|
· |
a canine cancer monitoring test; |
|
· |
NETosis related screening and monitoring tests for use in sepsis and COVID-19; and |
|
· |
cancer tests for humans in non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, colorectal cancer and lung cancer. |
Our Nucleosomics™ technology is transferable to multiple platforms including ELISA 96-well plates and, bead-based chemiluminescent. We are currently working on transferring our technology to the widely-utilized homogeneous immunoassay, platform and several point of care platforms to enable rapid turnaround of results both in–clinic and at the doctor’s office.
Additionally, we are working on complete nucleosome analysis with our Nu.Q® Capture technology. The goal of this project is to investigate ways to specifically target circulating tumor DNA (“ctDNA”). The ability to enrich ctDNA will allow us to use mass spectrometry to analyze histone and DNA modifications, and to sequence DNA present around nucleosomes. This information could enable cancer diagnosis to identify the tissue of origin of a particular cancer.
Developments - COVID-19 Pandemic
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, we have implemented contingency planning to protect the health and well-being of our employees and to mitigate the impacts of the pandemic on our business. We have implemented travel restrictions as well as protocols limiting visitor access to our facilities, and we are following social distancing practices. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experienced and may continue to experience disruptions that could impact our clinical trials, including:
|
· |
delays in enrolling patients in clinical trials; |
|
· |
delays in sample collection; and |
|
· |
diversion of healthcare resources away from the conduct of clinical trials, including the withdrawal of |
|
· |
hospitals serving as clinical trial sites and hospital staff supporting the conduct of our clinical trials. |
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations in the future remains uncertain and will be affected by a number of factors outside our control, including the duration and extent of the pandemic, the development of new variants of the COVID-19 virus that may be more contagious or virulent than previous versions, the scope of mandated or recommended containment and mitigation measures, the effect of government stabilization and recovery efforts, and the success of vaccine distribution programs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have financed our operations since inception primarily through private placements and public offerings of our common stock. As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $16.7 million.
Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in cash used in operating activities for the period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to same period in 2021 was primarily due to a $10.0 million payment received pursuant to our master license and product supply agreement with Heska, partly offset by higher payroll costs, and higher amounts paid to suppliers during the period.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This was primarily related to purchases of laboratory equipment.
Net cash used by financing activities was approximately $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and net cash provided by financing activities was $20.7 million for the comparable period ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities for the period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to same period in 2021 was primarily due to $18.9 million in net cash received from the issuance of shares of common stock in a registered public offering in February 2021 and $2.4 million in net cash received from the issuance of shares of common stock under our ATM facilities during the period ended June 30, 2021.

We intend to use our cash reserves to fund further research and development activities and launch new products. We do not currently have sufficient revenues to cover our annual expenses and expect to rely on financing our operations in future periods, mainly through the sale of equity or debt securities, and licensing rights, to provide sufficient funding to execute our strategic plan. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funds, or that we will be able to do so on terms that are satisfactory to us.
In the event that additional financing is delayed, we will prioritize the maintenance of our research and development personnel and facilities, primarily in Belgium, and the maintenance of our patent rights. In such instance, the completion of clinical validation studies and regulatory approval processes for the purpose of bringing products to the in vitro diagnostics markets would be delayed. In the event of an ongoing lack of financing, it may be necessary to discontinue operations, which will adversely affect the value of our common stock.
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive activities. For these reasons, our auditors included in their report on our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 an explanatory paragraph regarding factors that raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
