Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued
Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On August
14, 2024, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, based on the recommendation of the Company’s management,
and after consultation with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that the Company’s previously
issued unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contained within the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended March 31, 2024 contained a material misstatement related to the value of its indefinite life intangible assets (IPR&D assets),
impacting the value of the IPR&D assets on the balance sheet, together with the loss on the statement of operations, and, accordingly,
should no longer be relied upon.
As previously
disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on October 2, 2023, further development of the Company’s
product candidate RENB-HV-01 was deemed costly and a long-term undertaking and therefore it had become less attractive and had been deprioritized
so that pipelines that could move more quickly could be prioritized (e.g., RENB-DC-11). On March 31, 2024, a license agreement by and
between Weird Science LLC and Enochian Biopharma, Inc. (now known as Renovaro Biosciences, Inc.), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company,
dated February 16, 2018 (the “License Agreement”) covering RENB-HV-01 was terminated by the licensor.
The Company’s
management identified an error in the March 31, 2024 financial statements resulting from the method used to measure the impairment of
an indefinite life intangible asset (IPR&D asset) associated with the termination of the License Agreement. The error resulted in,
among other things, an overstatement of our assets and an understatement of our net loss and net loss per share for the three and nine
months ended March 31, 2024 due to an increase in the non-cash intangible asset impairment charge.
Accordingly,
the Company intends to restate the aforementioned financial statements by amending its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 2024 as soon as reasonably practicable. The Company expects to file the amended quarterly report during the week
of August 19, 2024.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On June
21, 2024, the Company filed suit against Weird Science LLC, William Anderson Wittekind, and certain trusts in connection with the February
16, 2018 merger involving the Company and two companies closely associated with Serhat Gumrukcu. In the complaint, the Company alleges
that Gumrukcu and others deliberately and fraudulently concealed a murder-for-hire scheme from the Company in order to induce the Company
to enter into the merger agreement, which resulted in the defendants receiving shares and compensation. The Company asserts claims for
fraudulent concealment, equitable fraud, unjust enrichment, and civil conspiracy and seeks, inter alia, equitable relief, including, but
not limited to, return to the Company any shares received in connection with the merger, and damages.
Cautionary Note Regarding

list of factors is not exhaustive. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put
