Overview
Hypha Labs, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on October 5, 2010. Hypha Labs, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Hypha Labs," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us") was a service-oriented independent testing laboratory, data analytics and media firm focused on the developing cannabis and hemp markets, and supported the cannabis industry's best practices for reliable testing. Our mission was to provide pharmaceutical-grade analysis and testing to the cannabis industry, under ISO-17025:2017 guidelines, to ensure consumers and patients knew exactly what was in the cannabis they ingest and to help maximize the quality of our clients' products through research, development, and standardization. Hypha Labs had been operating a cannabis-testing lab in Nevada since 2015.
On February 20, 2024, we completed the sale of the net assets of our wholly owned subsidiary Digipath Labs, Inc. ("Digipath Labs"). As of that date, we were no longer in the business as a service oriented independent testing laboratory, data analytics and media firm focused on the developing cannabis and hemp markets, which supported the cannabis industry's best practices for reliable testing, cannabis education and training. Following closing of the asset sale, the Company changed its name from Digipath, Inc. to Hypha Labs, Inc.
Hypha Products Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was formed on April 18, 2024 to engage in the research, development and commercialization of a bioreactor, the Hypha Micropearl bioreactor, a home appliance designed to accelerate the production of nutritionally beneficial mushrooms for human consumption. The Company's easy-to-use device, together with its replacement cartridges, safely and effectively produces enriched mycelium of functional mushrooms, or Micropearls, in just eight days. These Micropearls contain active mushroom ingredients that offer a way to harness the medicinal properties of fungi in a concentrated, easy-to-handle, tasteless and odorless form. These Micropearls can be incorporated into various food and beverages without altering the flavor.
Our Hypha Micropearl bioreactor will be sold with replaceable cartridges which are delivered pre-sterilized to the home and ready to be inserted into the device. These cartridges are filled with powerful nutrient formulations which allow for the production of the Micropearls. The QR codes on the cartridges are scanned to the Hypha Labs app and inserted into the device and the Micropearls are produced and fully formed in eight days. After harvesting the Micropearls with a strainer, they are ready to be incorporated into a variety of foods. The cartridges help to minimize the risk of mold or yeast contamination and help improve the success of the at home mushroom growth. We believe that our innovative bioreactor technology will disrupt traditional methods of mushroom production and bring lab-quality nutrient ingredients into the home with convenience and efficiency
We intend to continue the design, development and testing of the Hypha Micropearl bioreactor over the next nine months. Initially, we will produce a limited number of bioreactors at our headquarters for testing purposes, both with mycologists and experts in the functional mushroom industry. Upon completion of the design and successful testing of the Hypha Micropearl bioreactor, we will seek to enter into a manufacturing arrangement outside the United States to manufacture the Hypha Micropearl bioreactor for commercial sale. Our goal is to be in the position to market the Hypha Micropearl bioreactor by the latter part of calendar year 2026, although there can be no assurance we will achieve our goal in this time period, or at all.

Other expense consisted of interest expense of $100,721 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to interest expense of $22,660 offset by the gain on the recovery of previously written off receivables for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in interest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025 was a result of increased note payable and convertible note payable balances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following is a summary of the Company's cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
| 2026 | 2025 | |||||||
| Operating Activities | $ | (200,902 | ) | $ | (41,611 | ) | ||
| Investing Activities | - | (1,730 | ) | |||||

| Net increase (decrease) in Cash | $ | 44,082 | $ | (70,073 | ) | |||
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
During the six months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $200,902, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $41,611 for the same period ended March 31, 2025. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to our increase in net loss related to the development of our new business, after taking into account the non-cash expense related to the issuance of Series C Preferred shares to the sole officer in the six months ended March 31, 2025.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
During the six months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in investing activities was $0, compared to $1,730 used in investing activities for the same period ended March 31, 2025. The cash used in investing activities for the prior period related to the purchase of fixed assets.
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities
During the six months ended March 31, 2026, net cash provided by financing activities was $244,984, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $26,732 for the same period ended March 31, 2025. Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2026 related to proceeds from notes payable of $102,500, proceeds of $150,000 from convertible notes payable and net proceeds from the sale of Series D Preferred Shares of $57,484, offset by the repayment of $65,000 on notes payable. Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2025 related to proceeds from notes payable of $65,600, proceeds from purchase of Series C Preferred Shares of $100, offset by the payment of $92,432 in deferred offering costs.
Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
As of March 31, 2026, our balance of cash on hand was $82,200, and we had negative working capital of $1,338,365 and an accumulated deficit of $24,692,079 resulting from recurring losses. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Until the agreement to sell the assets of the Company's lab testing business, management was actively pursuing new customers to increase revenues. In addition, the Company was seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. The Company will seek to raise funds to complete the development and testing of its bioreactor over the next 6 to 12 months and to fund the initial launch of commercial sales of its bioreactor device. The Company intends to raise such funds through either the sale of equity or debt securities, including through a Regulation A offering. The Company is also currently evaluating future investments into potential acquisition targets. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising the necessary funds to achieve these objectives or that we will be able to continue our business without either a temporary interruption or a permanent cessation if such funds are not available. In addition, additional financing may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The unaudited 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 the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no outstanding off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency contracts. We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management's subjective or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management's current judgments.
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in notes to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results and affect the more significant judgments and estimates that we used in the preparation of our financial statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Improvements to nonemployee share-based payment accounting pursuant to ASC 2018-07 (ASC 2018-07). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty's performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance.
