| Organization and Nature of Business | Organization and Nature of Business Description of Business BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc. (“we”, “our” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada in February 2020. BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc. is the parent company of BullFrog AI, Inc. and BullFrog AI Management, LLC, which were incorporated in Delaware and Maryland, in 2017 and 2021, respectively. All the Company’s operations are currently conducted through BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc., which began operations in February 2020. The Company is focused specifically on advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning (“AI/ML”) driven analysis of complex data sets in medicine and healthcare. The Company’s objective is to utilize its AI/ML platform to provide a precision medicine approach to drug asset enablement through external partnerships and selective internal development. Most new therapeutics will fail at some point in preclinical or clinical development. These failures are a primary driver for the high cost of developing new therapeutics. A major challenge in developing new therapeutics is efficiently integrating the complex, high-dimensional data generated at each stage of development to help de-risk subsequent stages of the process. AI/ML have emerged as a digital solution to help address this problem. The Company uses AI/ML to advance medicines largely for external projects, although it has also done so, and may in the future do so, for internal projects. Currently, most AI/ML platforms still fall short in their ability to synthesize disparate, high-dimensional data for actionable insight. The Company’s analytical platform is composed of an ensemble of state-of-the-art machine learning and artificial intelligence models. The Company’s core platform technology, bfLEAP™, is an analytical AI/ML platform developed at The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (“JHU-APL”), which the Company believes is able to surmount the challenges of scalability and flexibility currently hindering researchers and clinicians by providing a more precise, multi-dimensional understanding of their data. The Company is deploying its analytical platform, including bfLEAP™, to customers through strategic partnerships and collaborations with the intention of streamlining data analytics in therapeutics development, decreasing the overall development costs by decreasing failure rates for new therapeutics, and impacting the lives of countless patients that may otherwise not receive the therapies they need. The proprietary analytical platform utilizes both supervised and unsupervised machine learning. As such, it can reveal real and meaningful connections in the data without the need for a priori hypothesis. Algorithms used in the platform are designed to handle highly imbalanced data sets and successfully identify combinations of factors that are associated with outcomes of interest. The Company’s platform leverages models that use both correlative and causative machine learning and artificial intelligence approaches which provide a comprehensive approach to predictive analysis that is expected to lead to meaningful insights including the molecular drivers of disease. In this regard, the Company continues to advance its internal target discovery initiatives through access to proprietary datasets, including those available under its strategic data and commercialization agreements with the Lieber Institute for Brain Development (“LIBD”). The Company’s goal is to improve the odds of success at all stages of pre-clinical and clinical development for in-house programs and for its strategic partners, collaborators, and customers. The Company’s business model includes supporting clinical trial optimization efforts for ongoing studies and rescuing late stage failed drugs (i.e., Phase 2 or Phase 3 clinical trial failures) by bringing them in-house for development prior to eventual divestiture; although, the Company also considers entering collaborations for earlier stage drugs. The Company pursues its drug asset enhancement business by leveraging the powerful and proven bfLEAP™ AI/ML platform. The Company believes the bfLEAP™ analytics platform is a potentially disruptive tool for analysis of pre-clinical and clinical data sets, such as the robust pre-clinical and clinical trial datasets being generated in translational R&D and clinical trial settings. Liquidity and Going Concern The Company has generated negative cash flows from operations and operated at a net loss since inception. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has a cash balance of approximately $7.0 million, which includes restricted cash of $0.1 million held by a financial institution as collateral for the Company’s corporate credit card program. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company received net cash proceeds of approximately $2.0 million from the sale of its common stock pursuant to the Company’s At-The-Market Sales Agreement with BTIG, LLC (the “ATM Agreement”). Also, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company sold common stock for net cash proceeds of approximately $5.8 million under the Company’s equity line of credit facility pursuant to its purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (the “ELOC Facility”). As of June 30, 2026, the Company's cash and cash equivalents position is not sufficient to fund the Company's planned operations for at least a year beyond the filing date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. This factor as well as other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company obtaining the necessary financing or revenues to meet its obligations arising from normal business operations when they become due. Accordingly, the Company will require additional capital to continue to execute its strategy. The Company anticipates securing this additional capital through various avenues, including revenues earned from the performance services, licensing agreements and commercial collaborations within its operating business as well as the sale of equity securities or entry into debt transactions. Although management believes that such funding sources will be available, including pursuant to the ATM Agreement and ELOC Facility, there can be no assurance that any such arrangements will provide sufficient capital when needed to allow the Company to continue its operations, or if available, be on terms acceptable to it. If the Company does not raise sufficient funds in a timely manner, among other things, it may be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its research and product development programs and capital expenditures or enter into arrangements on unfavorable terms. The Company does not currently have commitments for future funding from any source other than those noted above. Furthermore, the issuance of additional equity securities may be significantly dilutive to the Company’s current shareholders. On August 21, 2025, the Company received a letter from the listing staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company was no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Stockholders’ Equity Rule”). The Stockholders’ Equity Rule requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000 or to meet alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations, which the Company did not meet on the date of the notice. On October 7, 2025, Nasdaq granted the Company an extension until February 17, 2026, to comply with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). The Company subsequently attended a hearing with an independent Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) on March 31, 2026, pursuant to which the Company presented its plans to regain and maintain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Rule. As a result of sales of its common stock under the Company's ATM Agreement and ELOC Facility, which resulted in aggregate net proceeds of at least $3.45 million, the Company believed it had stockholders’ equity of more than $2.5 million in compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement and, as such, filed Form 8-K on April 1, 2026, stating as much. Subsequently, on April 21, 2026, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it had regained compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Rule as of such date. The letter stated that the Company will be subject to a mandatory panel monitor for a period of one year commencing April 21, 2026. If, within the one-year monitoring period, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff finds the Company out of compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Rule, the Company will not be permitted additional time to regain compliance. However, in such case, the Company will have an opportunity to request a new hearing with the Nasdaq Hearings Panel prior to the Company’s securities being delisted from Nasdaq. On February 10, 2026, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that, for the prior 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), was below $1.00 per share, which is the minimum closing bid price required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Notice”). The Bid Price Notice had no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Common Stock and tradeable warrants. As such, the Company’s Common Stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BFRG,” and its tradeable warrants will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BFRGW.” In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company is provided a compliance period of 180-calendar days from the date of the Bid Price Notice, or until August 10, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time during the 180-calendar day grace period, the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock is at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days (unless the Nasdaq staff exercises its discretion to extend this ten business day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(H)), Nasdaq will provide the Company written confirmation of compliance, and the matter will be closed. If the Company does not regain compliance during the initial 180-calendar day compliance period, the Company may be provided a second 180-calendar day period to regain compliance. On July 30, 2026, the Company sent a letter to Nasdaq requesting an extension of 180-calendar day grace period to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted compliance periods, including any extensions that may be granted by Nasdaq, the Company’s listed securities will be subject to delisting. The Company would thereafter have the right to appeal a determination to delist the Company’s securities, and the Company’s securities would remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market until the completion of the appeal process. While the Company plans to review all available options, including, if necessary, effecting a reverse stock split, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the compliance period, secure a second 180-day period to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, or maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements. Notably, at a Special Meeting of Stockholders in October 2025, we received stockholder approval to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio of not less than 1-to-2 and not more than 1-to-15, such ratio and timing to be determined in the discretion of our Board of Directors. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its Common Stock and assess potential options to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rules, including, if necessary, effecting a reverse stock split. The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
