IMPACT OF THE NOVEL CORONAVIRUS

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the "COVID-19 outbreak") and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally.

The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to evolve. Although at this date the restrictive measures and impacts are reduced due to the role out of vaccination programs, the extent to which the outbreak impacts our business, preclinical studies and clinical trials will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the emergence of new variants, the duration of the pandemic, travel restrictions and social distancing, business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken in the U.S., Europe, and other countries to contain and treat the disease. As such, it is uncertain as to the full magnitude that the pandemic will have on the Company's financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations.

Management has taken measures in-line with the country requirements where we are operational and actively monitoring the impact of this global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, scientific collaborations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for fiscal year 2022.

The Company is dependent on its workforce to deliver and advance its research. Developments such as physical distancing and working from home directives have and will continue to impact the Company's ability to deploy its workforce effectively. While restrictions are being lifted across the world, prolonged workforce disruptions may negatively impact future revenues for the remainder of fiscal year 2022 and the Company's overall liquidity.

The Company is dependent on its partners in certain projects, such as the University of Louisiana at Lafayette ("ULL") for the NIH funded project to maintain the agreed timelines and execute their tasks. Developments such as social distancing and shelter-in-place directives and lock-down directives have and will continue to impact the Company's ability to execute on project plans and research objectives effectively. While expected to be temporary, prolonged disruptions in collaboration projects may negatively impact funding for the fiscal year 2022 and the Company's overall liquidity.

Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2022.

CORONAVIRUS AID, RELIEF AND ECONOMIC SECURITY ACT

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. Government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") was signed into law. The CARES Act includes various income and payroll tax provisions. The Company has analyzed the tax provisions of the CARES Act and determined they have no significant financial impact to the condensed financial statements. The Company has no intention of taking advantage of other benefits but will continue to evaluate the impact on the Company's financial position.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 AND 2021

For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, revenue was €130 and €82, respectively, which was mainly related to the revenue recognized for the work performed under the NIH grant / HIV project in both years.

Costs and expenses increased to €529 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from €450 (17.6%) for the three months ended September 30, 2021, of which:





    o   Research and development expenses increased to €209 in the current period
        from €190 (10.0%) in the comparative period of 2021, mainly due to
        subcontracting services in relation with the NIH grant / HIV project.

    o   General and administrative expenses increased to €320 in the three months
        ended September 30, 2022 from €260 (23.1%) in the comparative period of
        2021, mainly due to consulting fees related to the engagement of
        consultants that will seek business development opportunities for the
        Company with the goal of obtaining deals for licensing, financing, and/or
        acquisition.



Interest expense increased to €703 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from €688 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 related to an increase in existing loans from related parties.

Foreign exchange revaluation, recorded in Other (income) expense, generated net losses of €230 and €75 during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which is due to the revaluation of existing US$ based loans from related parties and US$ cash position, reflecting the strong US$ in relation to the Euro.

The Company reported a net loss of (€1,345), or (€0.00) per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of (€1,153), or (€0.00) per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

    o   Research and development expenses increased to €1,191 in the current
        period from €752 (58.4%) in the comparative period of 2021, mainly due to
        the purchase of "influenza inactivated virus" during the first quarter in
        2022 in relation with the NIH grant / HIV project.

    o   General and administrative expenses increased to €979 in the nine months
        ended September 30, 2022 from €828 (18.2%) in the comparative period of
        2021, mainly due to service fees related to the engagement as of May 2022

        Company with the goal of obtaining deals for licensing, financing, and/or
        acquisition.

Foreign exchange revaluation, recorded in Other (income) expense, generated net losses of €496 and €154 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which is due to the revaluation of existing US$ based loans from related parties and US$ cash position, reflecting the strong US$ in relation to the Euro.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had cash of €401 at September 30, 2022 compared to €571 at December 31, 2021.

During 2021, our revenue has mainly been generated through the NIH grant / HIV project. For 2022, new significant revenues are not expected unless and until a major licensing agreement or other commercial arrangement is entered into with respect to our technology or new grant financings are awarded.

As of September 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately €102 million, and had net loss of €3,898 in the nine-month period ending on that date. We expect to continue to incur net losses in the future for research, development and activities related to the future licensing of our technologies, and because of the accrual of interest payable on existing loans.

Net cash used from operating activities increased to €1,366 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to €1,259 for the same period in 2021, mainly due to the receivable related to the NIH grant / HIV project incurred during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2022.

Net cash used in investing activities was €2 during the nine-months ended September 30, 2022 and €10 during the same period in 2021, mainly due to new IT equipment in Epalinges in 2022 and new laboratory equipment in Leiden in 2021.

Financing activities provided net cash of 1,200 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, related to new promissory notes from our main investors.

Salaries and related payroll costs represent gross salaries for two executives, our CSO of Mymetics BV and seven employees. Under Executive Employment Agreements with our CEO and two CSOs, we pay our executive officers a combined amount of €65 per month.

Our Swiss subsidiary, Mymetics S.A., has, besides the CEO and CSO, two additional employees on its payroll: Director of Finance and Head of Manufacturing and Quality. Mymetics BV has, besides the full time Chief Scientific Officer, two full-time technicians and one part-time assistant.

We intend to continue to incur additional expenditures during the next nine months for additional research and development of our HIV, Covid-19 vaccines and immunotherapy projects, which we will try to seek through collaborations with pharmaceutical companies or with not-for-profit organizations. These expenditures will relate to the continued research and testing of these prototype vaccines and are included in the monthly cash outflow described above.

In the past, we have financed our research and development activities primarily through debt and equity financings from various parties and through license and collaboration agreements and grant agreements.

We anticipate that our normal operations will require approximately €400 additional funding as of December 31, 2022. We will seek to raise the additional capital from equity or debt financings, and grants through donors and potential partnerships with major international pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms. However, there can be no assurance that it will be able to raise additional capital on satisfactory terms, or at all, to finance its operations on the longer term. In the event that we are not able to obtain such additional capital, we will be required to further restrict or even cease our operations.

Monthly fixed and recurring expenses for "Property leases" of €13 represent the monthly lease and maintenance payments to unaffiliated third parties for our offices, of which €4 is related to our executive office located at Route de la Corniche 4, 1066 Epalinges in Switzerland (100 square meters), and €9 related to Bestewil Holding B.V. and its subsidiary Mymetics B.V operating from a similar biotechnology campus near Leiden in the Netherlands, where they occupy 204 square meters.

Included in professional fees are legal fees paid to outside corporate counsel and audit and review fees paid to our independent accountants, and fees paid for investor relations.

Cumulative interest expense of €33,614 has been accrued on all of the Company's outstanding notes and advances (see detailed table in Note 2 to the financial statements).

RECENT FINANCING ACTIVITIES

During the nine-month period ending September 30, 2022, our principal source of funds has been promissory notes received in a prior quarter from our two main investors and the revenue generated through the NIH grant / HIV project.

We have filed or are in the process of filing several new grant applications with U.S. and European institutions in relation to our virosome based vaccines.

We anticipate using our current funds and those we receive in the future both to meet our working capital needs and for funding the ongoing vaccines pre-clinical research costs for new virosome vaccine.

Management anticipates that our existing capital resources will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements through the next five months. We have cash presently on hand in conjunction with the collection of receivables, based upon our current levels of expenditures and anticipated needs during this period. For 2022, we will need additional funding through future collaborative arrangements, licensing arrangements, and debt and equity financings under Regulation D and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. We do not know whether additional financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms when needed. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

If management cannot raise funds on acceptable terms when needed, we may not be able to successfully commercialize our technologies, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to unanticipated requirements. If unable to secure such additional financing when needed, we will have to curtail or suspend all or a portion of our business activities and could be required to cease operations entirely. Further, if new equity securities are issued, our shareholders may experience severe dilution of their ownership percentage.

The extent and timing of our future capital requirements will depend primarily upon the rate of our progress in the research and development of our technologies, our ability to enter into a partnership agreement with a major pharmaceutical company, and the results of our present projects and future clinical trials.
