Item 2.06 Results of Operations and Financial Conditions.

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (the “Company”) with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 22, 2024, the Company announced that it decommissioned its approximately 45,000 square foot bio-safety level-2 facility intended for clinical scale manufacturing of live-virus vaccines and biologics, the Advanced Development Center, in the New Bedford business park in Dartmouth, Massachusetts (the “ADC”), to align the Company’s capital and human resources with its previously announced strategic prioritization of its Tonmya™ (TNX-102 SL cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablet) product candidate for the management of fibromyalgia.

In connection with the preparation and review of its financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company engaged valuation consultants to conduct an appraisal of the ADC and equipment included therein. Based on the appraisals received on the ADC and related equipment, the Company expects that the financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 will reflect a non-cash impairment in the amount of approximately $50 million. The impairment amount reflects several factors, including the assumption, for purposes of this analysis only, that the ADC would not be operated as a GMP facility, but would instead be used for general industrial purposes. It also assumes estimated resale value of the related equipment, machinery and other personal property. The Company previously announced that it engaged an international real estate brokerage firm to find a strategic partner or buyer for the ADC to align with the Company’s current business objectives and priorities. The facility could be recommissioned and operated as a GMP facility.

The estimated amount of the impairment charge described above is subject to the completion of the Company’s financial closing procedures for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, which have not yet been completed. Actual results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 may differ materially from this estimate. Therefore, undue reliance should not be placed upon this preliminary estimate. The Company does not expect the impairment charge to have any impact on its future operations, nor affect its liquidity or cash flows from operating activities.
