Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
In the following discussion, "Vitro".," the "Company," "we," "our," and "us" refer to Vitro BioPharma, Inc., and its subsidiaries, as the context requires.
The following discussion analyzes our operating results for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2025 and compares those results to the three and nine months ended July 31, 2024. The discussion below also analyzes our liquidity and capital resources as of July 31, 2025 and material changes in those resources since the October 31, 2024. We suggest that you read the following information in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months July 31, 2025 and 2024 contained elsewhere in this Report and our audited consolidated financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K. Further, we encourage you to review the Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.
Overview
We are an innovative biotechnology company targeting autoimmune diseases and inflammatory disorders, with an ancillary focus in the research services and cosmeceutical fields. With respect to our regenerative medicine business, we are developing novel cellular therapeutic candidates intended to address significant unmet medical needs. In the United States, we are authorized to conduct two clinical trials under two FDA IND applications to assess the safety and efficacy of AlloRx Stem Cell therapy in PTHS and Long COVID and expect to commence those trials in late 2025 pending receipt of sufficient working capital. We generate revenue from our other technologies through a number of other activities, including through the sale of our stem cell products as well as cosmeceuticals through InfiniVive MD, our wholly-owned subsidiary, which helps to alleviate our expenses.
Components of Operating Results
Revenue
We generate revenue primarily from our proprietary products and technologies, including through supplying AlloRx Stem Cells, CAFs, native fibroblasts and other stem cell products and technologies developed by us.
In addition, our acquisitions of InfiniVive MD, and to a lesser extent, Fitore, provide us revenue through sales of topical cosmetic conditioned media and exosomes serums through InfiniVive MD and sales of dietary supplements, nutraceuticals and health products through Fitore. However, we expect that sales of Fitore products in the future will be limited, as we are currently selling such products solely from remaining inventory and with minimal marketing efforts, and do not anticipate manufacturing any additional Fitore products in the foreseeable future or at all. We also terminated the chief executive officer and all other employees of Fitore as of June 2022.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") expenses consist of salaries and other related costs, stock-based compensation, legal fees relating to corporate matters, other professional fees for accounting, auditing, tax and consulting services, insurance costs, travel expenses, and facility-related expenses.
We expect that our SG&A expenses will increase in the future as we expect to increase our headcount to support increased research and development activities relating to our clinical programs. We also expect to incur increased SG&A expenses associated with being a public company, including costs of accounting, audit, legal, regulatory and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance with stock exchange and SEC requirements, director and officer insurance costs, and investor and public relations costs.
Research and Development Expenses
All our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with the discovery and development of our research products and product candidates. We expect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future when we commence clinical trials and advance the pre-clinical and clinical development of our programs, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials.
Research and development expenses consist of personnel-related costs, including salaries, benefits, and non-cash stock-based compensation, external research and development expenses incurred under arrangements with third parties, laboratory supplies, costs to acquire and license technologies aligned with our goal of translating engineered cells to medicines, facility and other allocated expenses, including rent, depreciation, and allocated overhead costs, and other research and development expenses. Where appropriate, we will allocate our third-party research and development expenses on a program-by-program basis.
The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain and subject to numerous risks and uncertainties.
Accordingly, at this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any product candidates and to obtain regulatory approval for one or more of these product candidates.
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists of interest expense on our outstanding debt.
Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Derivative/Warrant Liability
Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Derivative/Warrant Liability consists of mark to market gains or losses on our warrant liability.
Going Concern
Our consolidated financial statements contained in this Report have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in our consolidated financial statements, we have an accumulated deficit as of July 31, 2025 of $43.9 million. We incurred net losses of approximately $5.9 million and $9.9 million during the nine months ended July 31, 2025 and the year ended October 31, 2024, respectively. We used cash in operating activities of $1.8 million and $2.3 million during the nine months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We had a working capital deficit of approximately $14.2 million as of July 31, 2025. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have commenced the execution of our long-range business plan and efforts to generate additional revenue; however, our current cash position is not sufficient to support our daily operations for the next 12 months. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional funds through debt or equity financings and our ability to further implement our business plan and generate additional revenue.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations
The following table summarizes our operating results for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024:

Net Loss
We recorded a net loss of $1,698,538 in the three months ended July 31, 2025, an increase of $1,553,359 from the three months ended July 31, 2024 loss of $149,080, or 1,042%. The increased loss in the three months ended July 31, 2025 was due to a gain on forgiveness of debt and significant unrealized gains on derivative liabilities during the three months ended July 31, 2024 that did not occur during the three months ended July 31, 2025. We expect to continue reporting losses until such time, if ever, we can improve the operation of our newly acquired subsidiaries and/or commercialize one or more of our product candidates and generate sales sufficient to offset our operating costs and expenses and interest expenses.
Product Sales
Total revenue in the three months ended July 31, 2025, increased by $288,734, or 90%, from the three months ended July 31, 2024. The increase is attributable to the factors described below. Our revenue is generated by sales of research products, sales of AlloRx Stem Cells to foreign third-party clinics and medical centers, consulting revenue and sales from our subsidiaries, InfiniVive MD and Fitore, there was no consulting revenue recognized in the three months ended July 31, 2025, or 2024.
During the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, research and development product sales were $88,199 and $72,913, respectively, an increase in the three months ended July 31, 2025 of $15,286, or 21%. The decrease was attributable to biopharmaceutical institutions, university research labs and clinics purchasing more CAFs and native fibroblasts in the three months ended July 31, 2025. CAFs and native fibroblasts are used by such institutions for stem cell research and the development of advanced immunotherapy of cancer, and our sales to such institutions are generally completed on a purchase order basis and without minimum purchase obligations. As a result, sales volumes in a particular period may fluctuate based on the number of research programs then being pursued by such institutions.
Sales of AlloRx Stem Cells to foreign third-party clinics for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024 were $490,960 and $214,839 respectively, an increase of $276,121, or 129%. We expect AlloRx Stem Cell sales internationally to increase over the next year as these products expand into additional foreign third-party clinics and medical centers and our current foreign third-party clinics and medical center customers increase their total monthly patients as international travel continues to pick back up.
Product Sales - Related Parties
Product sales to related parties are sales to the medical practice of Dr. Zamora, our former Chief Executive Officer. Such sales for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, were $13,500 and $1,800, respectively.
Cost of Goods Sold
Our cost of goods sold during the three months ended July 31, 2025 totaled $69,612 compared to $65,438 during the three months ended July 31, 2024, an increase of $4,174, or 6%, resulting in gross profit of $539,031 and $254,471 for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The gross profit percentages for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024 were 89% and 80%, respectively. Cost of goods sold increased for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024 due to higher sales of product during the three months ended July 31, 2025.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses decreased from $1,383,346 in the three months ended July 31, 2024, to $1,309,934 in the three months ended July 31, 2025. This decrease of $73,412 or 5% was primarily due to a reduction in depreciation expense of $26,748 and a reduction in consulting and legal fees of $52,092.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024 were $119,210 and $125,628, respectively, a decrease of $6,418, or 5%, as the Company continues working to identify additional indications for the study of AlloRx Stem Cell therapy and AlloEx exosome therapy.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended July 31, 2025, was $859,591, a decrease of $1,091,334 from the interest expense for the three months ended July 31, 2024 of $1,950,925. This decrease is primarily due to debt discount accretion reductions related to the 2024 Senior Secured Notes, since all of the 2024 notes had reached maturity during 2024. The interest expense related to the remaining debt on our balance sheet of approximately $11.6 million is expected to be all non-cash.
Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
During the three months ended July 31, 2024, the Company extinguished certain debt and issued a new debt instrument in its place. The transactions resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $740,724. There was no comparable gain during the three months ended July 31, 2025.
Unrealized Gain on Derivative/Warrant Liability
During the years ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, we issued 8% Convertible Notes and Senior Secured Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $6,436,350. In February and April of 2025, we issued 2025 Series Senior Secured Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $6,687,500. In May of 2025, we issued 2025 Series Senior Secured Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $406,250. In connection with these notes, the Company recognized a Derivative/Warrant liability. As of July 31, 2025 and 2024, this liability was marked to market, resulting in an unrealized gain (loss) during the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024 of $51,166 and $2,315,624, respectively.
The following table summarizes our operating results for the nine months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. We expect to incur significant expenses and operating losses as we advance the preclinical and clinical development of our programs. We expect that our sales, research and development, and general and administrative costs will increase in connection with conducting additional preclinical studies and clinical trials for our current and future programs and product candidates, expanding our intellectual property portfolio, and providing general and administrative support for our operations. As a result, we will need additional capital to fund our operations for the next twelve months and beyond, which we hope to obtain from additional equity or debt financings, collaborations, licensing arrangements, or other sources.
We currently have no credit facility or other committed sources of capital. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through other third-party funding, collaboration agreements, strategic alliances, licensing arrangements or marketing and distribution arrangements, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our drug development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market products or product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.
In order to continue as a going concern, as well as to meet our operational goals, we will need to obtain additional capital in both the short and long term, which we will likely obtain through a variety of means, including through public or private equity, debt financings or other sources, including up-front payments and milestone payments from strategic collaborations. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of convertible debt or equity securities, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our stockholders. Such financing may result in dilution to stockholders, imposition of debt covenants, increased fixed payment obligations or other restrictions that may affect our business. If we raise additional funds through up-front payments or milestone payments pursuant to strategic collaborations with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our product candidates, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. In addition, we may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans.
Working Capital
As of July 31, 2025, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $14.2 million, comprised of current assets of $0.6 million and current liabilities of $14.9 million. The working capital deficit at July 31, 2025, increased approximately $5.1 million from October 31, 2024, our prior fiscal year end. Cash decreased from $0.6 million as of October 31, 2024, to $0.2 million at July 31, 2025.
As a result of our limited working capital position as of July 31, 2025, we continue to rely on cash from outside sources to meet our liquidity requirements. Our need for liquidity and capital in the next 12 months include:
● | advancing the clinical development of AlloRx Stem Cell therapy for the treatment of several indications; | |
● | pursuing the preclinical and clinical development of other current and future research programs and product candidates; | |
● | in-license or acquire the rights to other products, product candidates or technologies; | |
● | maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio; |
● | hire additional personnel in research, manufacturing and regulatory and clinical development as well as management personnel; | |
● | seek regulatory approval for any product candidates that successfully complete clinical development; | |
● | expand our manufacturing capabilities; | |
● | expand our operational, financial and management systems and increase personnel, including personnel to support our operations as a public company; and | |
● | pay our other administrative expenses. |
We may endeavor to raise additional capital through the sale of equity or debt in one or more non-public offerings. We do not anticipate commencing any clinical trials of our AlloRx Stem Cell therapy unless and until we receive substantial additional capital, as costs are estimated to be $4 million to $6 million to commence our contemplated Phase 1/2a clinical trials for PTHS and Long COVID, depending on whether we commence one or both trials.
Our significant contractual cash requirements as of July 31, 2025, primarily include payments for operating and finance lease liabilities and principal and interest on loans. Our current and long-term obligations related to these items are outlined in "Note 6-Lease Obligations," and "Note 7-Debt," of the Notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements within this Report. Additionally, we may incur purchase obligations in the ordinary course of business that are enforceable and legally binding and enter into enforceable agreements to purchase goods or services that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased and fixed or estimated prices to be paid at the time of settlement. As of July 31, 2025, we had payments for lease, loan and other known contractual obligations of approximately $11.8 million, of which approximately $9.9 million are payable within 12 months as of July 31, 2025.
Our working capital needs beyond the next 12 months include ongoing general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses, the latter of which are expected to increase if and when we commence one or more of our planned clinical trials. In addition to our long-term debt obligations, our long-term capital requirements also include the cost of adding additional clean rooms for manufacturing, which is estimated to cost approximately $0.3 to $0.5 million depending on the amount of anticipated production increase, available capital and manufacturing demands at that time.
Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with research, development and commercialization of our product candidates, it is difficult to estimate with certainty the amount of our working capital requirements. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including:
● | the progress, costs and results of our clinical trials for our programs for our cell-based therapies; | |
● | the progress, costs and results of additional research and preclinical studies in other research programs we initiate in the future; | |
● | the costs and timing of process development and manufacturing scale-up activities associated with our product candidates and other programs we advance through preclinical and clinical development; | |
● | our ability to establish and maintain strategic collaborations, licensing or other agreements and the financial terms of such agreements; | |
● | the extent to which we in-license or acquire rights to other products, product candidates or technologies; and | |
● | the costs and timing of preparing, filing and prosecuting patent applications, maintaining and protecting our intellectual property rights and defending against any intellectual property-related claims. |

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to stock-based awards and Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and various other factors that we believe 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 from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Of our policies, we consider the following the most critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements as they require the application of the most subjective and complex judgment, involving critical accounting estimates and assumptions impacting our consolidated financial statements. We have applied our policies and critical accounting estimates consistently across our businesses.
Intangibles
Most of our identifiable intangible assets were recognized as part of business combinations we have executed in prior periods. Our identifiable intangible assets are considered definite life intangible assets and are comprised of, trademarks and trade names, customer relationships and patents. Definite life intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of useful life.
Our determination of the fair value of the intangible assets acquired involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. We believe that the fair value assigned to the assets are based on reasonable assumptions and estimates that a market participant would use. Should conditions differ from management's estimates at the time of the acquisition, including changes in volume or timing to current expectations of future revenue growth rates and forecasted margins, or changes in market factors outside of our control, such as discount rates, material write-downs of intangible assets may be required, which would adversely affect our operating results.
We monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of intangible assets may not be recoverable. We review the carrying amounts of our intangible assets for potential impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators may include any significant changes in the manner of our use of the assets or the strategy of our overall business, certain reorganization initiatives, significant negative industry or economic trends and significant decline in our share price for a sustained period.
When such events or changes in circumstances occur, we compare the carrying amounts of the asset or assets groups with their respective estimated undiscounted future cash flows. If the asset or assets group are determined to be impaired, an impairment charge is recorded in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset or assets group exceed their fair value.
As of October 31, 2024, we impaired $196,595 of the InfiniVive intangible assets, leaving a balance of $601,887. The amount was impaired because the carrying value of the intangibles was not supported by future cash flows. As of October 31, 2024 and 2023, we impaired $49,431 and $234,795 of the Fitore intangible assets, leaving a balance of $0 in Fitore. The amounts were impaired because the carrying value of the intangibles was not supported by future cash flows. There was no impairment of intangibles in the three and nine months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024.
