Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, scientific collaborations, suppliers, industry, and workforce.

Our Swiss subsidiary,
We intend to continue to incur additional expenditures during the next nine months for additional research and development of our HIV, Influenza 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 E1,360 of
cash in the year ending
Monthly fixed and recurring expenses for "Property leases" of E13 represent the

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 2020, 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.
