Exhibit 99.2

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and operating results together with the information in our consolidated financial statements and the related notes to those statements included elsewhere in our Annual Report. We present our consolidated financial statements in pounds sterling and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, or IASB, which may differ in material respects from generally accepted accounting principles in other jurisdictions, including generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP.

The statements in this discussion regarding industry outlook, our expectations regarding our future performance, liquidity and capital resources and other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties described in the sections titled “Risk Factors” within our Annual Report. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Our books and records are maintained in pounds sterling. For the purposes of convenience to the reader, we have translated pound sterling amounts as of and for the month ended June 30, 2022 into US Dollars at the rate of £1.00 to $1.2162, which was the noon buying rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on June 30, 2022. These translations should not be considered representations that any such amounts have been, could have been, or could be converted into US Dollars at that or any other exchange rate as of that date or any other date.

TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc (“TC BioPharm” or the “Company”) was incorporated on October 25, 2021. On December 17, 2021, all shareholders in TC BioPharm Limited and holders of convertible loan notes in TC BioPharm Limited exchanged their shares and convertible loan notes for the same number and classes of newly issued shares and/or convertible loan notes in TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc and, as a result, TC BioPharm Limited became a wholly owned subsidiary of TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc (the “Group”). The corporate reorganization has been accounted for as a business combination under common control and therefore, TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc is a continuation of TC BioPharm Limited and its subsidiaries. The corporate reorganization has been given retrospective effect in these consolidated financial statements, which represent the consolidated financial statements of TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc. All TC BioPharm Limited share options granted to directors and employees under share option plans that were in existence immediately prior to the reorganization were exchanged for share options in TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc on a one-for-one basis with no change in any of the terms or conditions.

On December 17, 2021 and subsequent to the group reorganization, the Company undertook a share split such that one issued ordinary share was exchanged for ten new ordinary shares. As a result of the share split, all references in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to units of ordinary shares or per share amounts are reflective of the forward share split for all periods presented. In addition, the exercise prices and the numbers of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of any outstanding options to purchase ordinary shares were proportionally adjusted pursuant to the respective anti-dilution terms of the share-based payment plans.

The Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “TCBP” on February 10, 2022, following its initial public offering (“IPO”). As part of the IPO, the Company, issued 82,353 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) representing 82,353 ordinary shares with nominal value of £41,176 and warrants to buy 189,412 ADSs for proceeds before expenses of $17.5 million. Funding costs of $3.0 million including underwriter fees were incurred. On February 10, 2022, TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc issued 63,280 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) representing 63,280 ordinary shares with nominal value of £31,640 and warrants to buy 126,560 ADSs on conversion of loan notes totaling $13.4 million. Between June 7, 2022 and June 8, 2022, the Company issued and sold 230,000 ADSs representing ordinary shares generating proceeds of $4.6 million before deductions for offering expenses of approximately $0.78 million.

On November 18, 2022 the Company undertook a reverse share split such that fifty issued ordinary share were exchanged for one new ordinary share. As a result of the share split, all references included in this document to units of ordinary shares or per share amounts are reflective of the reverse share split for all periods presented. In addition, the exercise prices and the numbers of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of any outstanding options to purchase ordinary shares were proportionally adjusted pursuant to the respective anti-dilution terms of the share-based payment plans.

Overview

TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc (TCB) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company with a cell-based product pipeline capable of treating a variety of disorders including cancer and infectious disease.

TCB is currently developing a pipeline of unmodified allogeneic GD-T therapies and next generation GD CAR-T treatments with a number of advantages over conventional approaches. TC BioPharm owns its two main patent families in the GD CAR-T space, providing robust IP protection and manufactures all products in-house, leading to a much lower cost of goods than competitor products.

Conventional CAR-T treatments have seen many patients experience treatment-related adverse events and are limited to liquid tumors. Furthermore, the cost of manufacture of such treatments is high which can lead to difficulties in scaling an infrastructure to meet patient demand.

Our approach takes advantage of the inherent specificity of GD-T cells against phosphoantigens which are expressed only by cancerous and infected cells. This ensures that the cytotoxic effect of the CAR-expressing GD-T cells will be focused on the pathogenic cells expressing the target antigen whilst ignoring healthy cells. This is ensured by the fact that when the target antigen is expressed on a healthy cell, the GD CAR-T cell is not activated. This technology enables the targeting of cell surface antigens which have previously been deemed ‘undruggable’ due to their expression on healthy/non-diseased tissue. Thus, our CAR-T products have the potential to treat a wider range of tumors than can be targeted with present strategies.

Going concern

Since incorporation the Group has been focused on the development of therapeutic products based around its gamma delta T cell platform technology, with the objective of conducting clinical trials to demonstrate safety and efficacy and eventually being granted regulatory approval to market and sell its products. This activity was expected to be several years in development and has involved considerable expenditure to date on carrying out research and development and conducting clinical trials. In common with most development and/or clinical stage biotechnology companies, the Group has not yet generated any revenues from sales of products, but has obtained cash to finance its research, development and clinical trial activities from equity, debt and grant financings and from receipts from partners under collaborative co-development agreements (totalling £72 million since inception). The Group is expected to continue in this clinical development phase for a number of years before any product becomes marketable. The Group therefore expects to continue to incur significant losses in the foreseeable future.

As at June 30, 2022, the Group had an accumulated deficit of £32.1 million. It experienced an outflow of cash from operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022, of £8.9 million, and expects to incur continued outflow of cash for the foreseeable future. Net income/(losses) incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, amounted to £0.5 million and (£2.6) million, respectively.

As at June 30, 2022, the Group’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to £6.0 million, current assets amounted to £9.8 million and current liabilities (excluding amounts which may become payable under its Convertible Loan Notes and Warrant derivative liabilities) amounted to £5.0 million.

The Group raised $17.5million (£12.8 million), $14.5 million (£10.6 million) net of all commissions, costs and expenses) through the completion of an initial public offering of its ADS and Warrants on Nasdaq (IPO) in February 2022 and raised a further $4.6 million (£3.7 million), $3.8 million (£3.0 million) net of all commissions, costs and expenses) through the completion of a follow-on offering in June 2022.

In November 2022, TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc raised $7.4million (£6.2 million), $6.6 million (£5.5 million) net of all commissions, costs and expenses, through the completion of a private placement of its ADS and Warrants.

On November 30, 2022, the Group had cash on hand of $7.9 million (£6.5 million), which will not be sufficient to enable the Group to meet the cash requirements required to enable it to conduct its business plan through the going concern period (being to December 31, 2023) (“Going Concern Period”). With existing resources, we expect to be able to fund current operations to May 2023.

In common with many clinical development stage biotechnology companies our future liquidity needs, and ability to address them, will largely be determined by the availability of capital, both generally and in particular to fund our product candidates and key development and regulatory projects. As a pre-revenue biotechnology company, we have financed our operations though continuously raising capital; and we expect to continue having to raise capital routinely on the capital markets, taking advantage of our public listing. We are currently and continuously progressing various funding options to fill our projected working capital gap, including the current short-term requirements, which could be in the form of an equity raise or other forms of financings such as debt funding, collaborations or licensing arrangements.

We believe that our ongoing financing initiatives should improve our net short-term working capital position sufficiently to provide sufficient capital to finance planned operations through 2023, and thereafter we would expect to be in a position to raise significantly greater capital as our clinical program progresses. However, there can be no certainty that these initiatives will be successful and, if they are not, management will seek to deploy alternative plans, which could have a potentially significant negative impact on shareholder and asset value. Such plans could include all or any of the following: raising additional capital through low priced and/or complex equity and/or debt financings; entering transactions involving sales, joint venturing or licensing of intellectual property; reducing and/or deferring discretionary spending on research and development or clinical programs; restructuring our operating model to take advantage of our manufacturing capability to generate short term revenues; reducing our cash burn rate through reduction in planned operating costs.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with IFRS as issued by IASB, which contemplate continuation of the Group as a going concern (having adequate working capital to maintain operations through the Going Concern Period). In common with many clinical stage development enterprises, the Group has not established a source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs, and as such, has been dependent on ongoing funding operations primarily through ongoing initiatives to sell securities via its Nasdaq listing, commercial partnerships, and/or grants. The Group expects to require substantially more capital to fund its clinical, development and operational requirements, and therefore incur further losses over the next several years as it develops its clinical products towards the market. The Group has utilized, and expects to continue to utilize, substantial amounts of funding to implement its business strategy. Although the completion of the IPO on Nasdaq was a major milestone for the Group, as it opens much wider avenues to raise future finance, the market conditions were such that the initial and subsequent funds raised are less than was initially targeted, and the proceeds of the offerings alone are not adequate to finance the Group’s clinical and product development programs through the Going Concern Period. Nonetheless the proceeds of the offerings, together with the anticipated proceeds from ongoing and future fund-raising activities, cause management to believe that the Group will have sufficient liquidity to fund its operations through the Going Concern Period, and, on that basis, management continues to view the Company as a going concern.

Notwithstanding this, management recognizes, that there is uncertainty surrounding the ability of the Group to implement successfully the funding activities required to maintain operations through the Going Concern Period, and immediately beyond. The quantum and timing of such funding is also uncertain. If the Group is unable to maintain adequate liquidity, future operations will need to be scaled back or discontinued. These conditions raise material uncertainty about the Group’s ability to provide support and therefore may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Group’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Financial Operations Overview

Revenues

We do not have any approved products. Accordingly, we have not generated any revenue from the sale of products, and we do not expect to generate any such revenue unless and until we obtain regulatory approvals for, and commercialize any of, our product candidates. In the future, we will seek to generate revenue primarily from product sales and, potentially, regional or global collaborations with strategic partners, which may produce license fee income.

During the periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2022, we had two collaboration agreements with global pharmaceutical companies. Revenue arose under these contracts as a result of (i) our recharging development costs incurred by us under those agreements to our partners and (ii) on upfront payments received under those collaboration agreements, which are taken to revenue on a straight-line basis over the estimated term over which the services promised will be provided. In addition, we are entitled to receive contractual payments, which would be recorded as revenue, when and if certain clinical trial performance milestones are met on partnered programs. Our collaborations are at a pre-clinical stage and there can be no assurance that we will receive any future milestone revenues.

Since inception through June 30, 2022, the Company has received £14.5 million ($17.6 million) in pre-clinical payments connected with CAR-T development deals with listed pharma companies (NIPRO, Japan: Bluebird Bio, US (now called 2seventy bio – NASDAQ (TSVT)).

Operating Expenses

We classify our operating expenses into two categories: research and development expenses and administrative expenses. Personnel costs, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and share-based payment expense, comprise a significant component of each of these expense categories. We allocate expenses associated with personnel costs based on the function performed by the respective employees.

Research and Development Expenses

The largest component of our total operating expenses since inception has been costs related to our research and development activities, including the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidates.

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, with our development activities not yet at the point at which capitalization can occur under IFRS. Our research and development expense primarily consist of:

The successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain. Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally have higher development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later-stage clinical trials. In addition, the cost of development of our CAR-T range of products is likely to be substantially higher than costs incurred historically in the development of our unmodified products. Accordingly, we expect research and development costs to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as programs progress. However, we do not believe that it is possible at this time to accurately project total program-specific expenses through commercialization. We are also unable to predict when, if ever, material net cash inflows will commence from our product candidates to offset these expenses. Our expenditures on current and future preclinical and clinical development programs are subject to numerous uncertainties in timing and cost to completion.

The duration, costs and timing of clinical trials and development of our product candidates will depend on a variety of factors including:

We track research and development expenses on a program-by-program basis for both clinical-stage and preclinical product candidates. Manufacturing, clinical trial and preclinical research and development expenses are assigned or allocated to individual product candidates. We do not allocate employee costs or facility expenses, including depreciation or other indirect costs, to specific programs because these costs are deployed across multiple programs and, as such, are not separately classified. We use internal resources primarily to oversee research and development as well as for managing our preclinical development, process development, manufacturing and clinical development activities.

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses consist of personnel costs, other administrative expenses and other expenses for outside professional services, including legal, audit and accounting services. Personnel costs consist of salaries, bonuses, benefits and share-based payment expense. Other administrative expenses include office space-related costs not otherwise allocated to research and development expense, professional fees and costs of our information systems. We anticipate that our administrative expenses will continue to increase in the future as we increase our headcount to support our continued research and development and potential commercialization of our product candidates. In the future, we expect to incur additional expenses as a public company, including expenses related to compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq, additional insurance expenses, and expenses related to investor relations activities and other administrative and professional services.

Change in fair value of convertible loan derivative

The gain/loss relates to the movement in the estimated fair value of the embedded derivative related to the issue of Notes from the point of recognition to the period end, calculated by using a Black Scholes option pricing model.

Finance Income

Finance income relates to interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits.

Finance Costs

Finance costs include the effective interest charge accrued in relation to the Notes and interest expense representing the unwinding of discounted lease liabilities in respect of assets presented on our consolidated statement of financial position in accordance with IFRS 16 “Leases”.

Income Tax Credit

We are subject to corporate taxation in the United Kingdom. Due to the nature of our business, we have generated losses since inception. Our income tax credit recognized represents the sum of the research and development tax credits recoverable in the United Kingdom.

As a company that carries out extensive research and development activities, we benefit from the U.K. research and development tax credit regime and are able to surrender some of our losses for a cash rebate of up to 33.35% of expenditures related to eligible research and development projects. Qualifying expenditures largely comprise clinical trial and manufacturing costs, employment costs for relevant staff and consumables incurred as part of research and development projects. Certain subcontracted qualifying research and development expenditures are eligible for a cash rebate of up to 21.68%. A large portion of costs relating to our research and development, clinical trials and manufacturing activities are eligible for inclusion within these tax credit cash rebate claims.

We may not be able to continue to claim research and development tax credits in the future under the current research and development tax credit scheme because we may no longer qualify as a small or medium-sized company. However, we may be able to file under a large company scheme.

Tax losses that have not been utilized to offset taxable income or surrendered in connection with the aforementioned research and development tax credits are carried forward to be offset against future taxable profits.

In the event we generate revenues in the future, we may benefit from the UK government’s “patent box” initiative that allows profits attributable to revenues from patents registered in the United Kingdom or European Union or patented products to be taxed at a lower rate than other streams of revenue. The current rate of tax for relevant streams of revenue for companies receiving this relief is 10%.

Ukrainian Conflict

Currently the conflict between Ukraine and Russia does not have any direct effect on our operations, as they are generally conducted only in the United Kingdom. Currently, we believe the conflict will have only a general impact on our operations in the same manner as it is having a general impact on all businesses resulting from sanction and embargo regulations, possible shortages of goods that may be supplied from the Ukraine and Russia, and the inflationary results of the conflict.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

The following table summarizes the results of our operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

Research and development expenses

The table below summarizes our research and development expenses incurred by program:

Research and development expenses increased by 27% to £3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from £2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in direct research and development expenses of £0.3 million in 2022 reflected the impact of an increase in activity following the completion of our initial public offering. Personnel costs increased to £2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from £1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 reflecting an increase in headcount post listing and awards of share options during the period (£0.5m) during 2022. The share based payment expense in the six months to June 30, 2021 was Nil. Indirect research and development expense, which contains a number of fixed costs such as facility and property expenditure remained the same in the six month period to June 30, 2022 compared to the six month period to June 30, 2021. Our research and development expenses are highly dependent on the phases of our research projects and therefore fluctuate from year to year.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses increased by 388% to £4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from £0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase reflected higher levels of activity following the completion of the listing, costs associated with running a listed entity and share based payments in the period.

Costs related to preparing for IPO of £1.1 million are also part of administrative expenses but are shown separately on the face of consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss) due to its material size.

During the six months to June 30, 2022, the business granted share options as part of the listing process which resulted in a share-based payment charge of £0.5 million (2021: Nil). In addition, since June 2021, the business has, in preparation for the listing, expanded the management team and established an operational presence in the United States of America. The legal and professional fees in the six months to June 30, 2022 reflect the higher compliance costs associated with being a quoted Company. These costs include director and office insurance, professional accounting advisory and audit fees and investor relations costs.

Change in fair value of convertible loan derivatives

The credit, totaling £6.9 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 relates to the movement in the estimated fair value of the embedded derivatives related to the issue of Convertible Loan Notes from December 31, 2021 to the period end, calculated by using a Black Scholes option pricing model. There was no value attributed to the embedded derivatives in issue at June 30, 2021.

Change in fair value of warrant liabilities

The credit, totaling £10.5 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 relates to the movement in the estimated fair value of the embedded derivatives related to the issue of warrants at the time of the IPO, from the point of recognition, calculated by using a Black Scholes option pricing model, to the period end, calculated by using a the market price of the listed warrants. There were no warrants in issue in 2021.

Change in fair value of other derivative liabilities

The charge, totaling £3.8 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 relates to the movement in the estimated fair value of the embedded derivatives related to anti-dilution provisions within A Ordinary shares immediately prior to the completion to the IPO. During the completion of the IPO, A Ordinary shareholders exercised their right to subscribe for additional shares at nominal value and the value of the derivative liability was transferred to equity. All of the outstanding series A ordinary shares were subsequently re-designated as ordinary shares of TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc on a one for one basis and as such no anti-dilution provisions are included within the issued share capital.

Finance Costs

Finance costs were £6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to £0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase reflected the effective interest rate calculated in respect of Convertible Loan Notes issued during the year ended December 31, 2021 and in existence during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, we incurred net income/(losses) of £0.5 million and (£2.6) million, respectively. We used £8.8 million of cash in operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and used £1.8 million of cash in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

As of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of £6.0 million and £0.3 million, respectively. From incorporation through to June 30, 2022, we have financed our operations primarily through placements of equity securities, convertible loans, government grants, research and development tax credits, and receipts from partner for collaborative research and development services totaling £72 million. On February 15, 2022, the Company completed its IPO on Nasdaq, raising net proceeds of $14.5 million and completed further funding rounds in June 2022 and November 2022 raising net proceeds of £6.7 million.

If we obtain regulatory approval to advance any of our GD-T cell therapeutic candidates into pivotal clinical trials or to commercialization, we will incur significant research and development expenses, and also commercialization expenses related to product sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution and additional funding would be required. Where appropriate, we will seek to fund our operations through milestone payments under our agreements with collaboration partners and additional equity financings.

Cash Flows

The following tables summarize the results of our cash flows for the below respective periods:

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was £8.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The loss before taxation for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was £0.2 million, which is offset by noncash items of £0.4 million, share based payments of £0.8 million, £10.5 million of income related to movements in the embedded derivative related to warrants issued at the IPO in the income statement, £3.8 million of costs related to the movement in fair value of embedded derivatives relating to anti-dilution provisions within certain share classes, £1.1 million of costs related to the interest charge on the convertible loan note and movement in the embedded derivative in the income statement and changes in working capital of £1.0 million. The noncash items consisted primarily of finance costs, changes in fair value of a derivative liabilities, depreciation and amortization. The changes in working capital in the period reflected an increase in trade and other receivables, a decrease in deferred income offset by an increase in trade and other payables.

Net cash used in operating activities was £1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The loss before taxation for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was £3.2 million, which is offset by noncash items of £0.9 million and changes in working capital of £0.4 million. The noncash items consisted primarily of finance costs, depreciation and amortization. The changes in working capital in the period reflected an increase in trade and other payables offset by a decrease in deferred income.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was £0.1 million and £0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. These amounts relate primarily to purchases of property, plant and equipment related to our facility and patent filing costs.

Financing Activities

Net cash from financing activities was £13.2 million and £1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, these amounts consisted of net proceeds from the issue of shares and warrants as part of the IPO and further follow on round (£15.6 million net of issue costs), offset by the repayment of Convertible Loan Notes (£1.9 million) and the repayment of lease liabilities (£0.5 million). For the six months ended June 30, 2021, these amounts consisted of net proceeds from the issue of convertible loan notes (£1.5 million) and ordinary share capital (£0.3 million) offset by the repayment of sale and leaseback asset finance obligations and lease liabilities (£0.2 million).

Funding Requirements

We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance the preclinical activities and clinical trials of our product candidates. Our expenses will increase as we (i) advance our product candidates through phases of clinical development and, potentially, registration, (ii) fund our research and development activities to further expand our GD-T cell technologies and develop future product candidates and follow-on versions of our more advanced product candidates, (iii) fund our manufacturing activities and the expansion of our plant to support our ongoing and future clinical trials and potential commercial launch; and (iv) fund our general operations.

Since February 10, 2022, we have been a publicly traded company and will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we were not required to incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules adopted by the SEC and The Nasdaq Stock Market, requires public companies to implement specified corporate governance practices. We expect these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly.

We expect that our cash resources received from the IPO and subsequent to this to be able to fund current operations to May 2023 and together with future planned fundraisings in 2023 will enable us to fund our planned operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least twelve months. We have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we expect. We will require additional capital to continue to conduct our business and implement our business plans.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with research, development and commercialization of pharmaceutical product candidates, we are unable to estimate the amount of our future working capital requirements, which will depend on and are likely to increase significantly as a result of many uncertain factors, including:

Until such time, if ever, that we can generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability, we expect to finance our future cash needs through equity offerings and debt and a combination thereof, including securities convertible into ordinary shares and through development collaborations with partners.

To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity, our shareholders’ ownership interest will be diluted.

If we raise additional funds through other third-party funding, collaborations agreements, strategic alliances, licensing arrangements or marketing and distribution arrangements, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us.

If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market products or product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves. If we raise funding through borrowings, we may have to enter into onerous covenants which may adversely impact our operations and our ability to obtain further funding.

There is no assurance that we will be able to raise any further funding, or if further funding is offered, it will be on terms that are acceptable to us and may bring dilution which is unacceptable to our shareholders.

Critical Judgments in Applying Our Accounting Policies

In the application of our accounting policies, we are required to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions about the value of assets and liabilities for which there is no definitive third-party reference. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Our estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revisions and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are our critical judgments, except those involving estimation uncertainty, that we have made in the process of applying our accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Going Concern

Our evaluation of our ability to continue as a going concern requires us to evaluate our future sources and uses of cash sufficient to fund our currently expected operations in conducting research and development activities one year from the date our consolidated financial statements are issued. We evaluate the probability associated with each source and use of cash resources in making our going concern determination. The research and development of cell therapies is inherently subject to uncertainty.

Management believes that its existing cash balances will be able to fund current operations to May 2023 and when coupled with planned further financings during 2023 cash balances will be sufficient to fund the current operating plans for at least the twelve month period following the filing date of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Should the additional planned financings not occur as expected, management will implement alternative arrangements and such arrangements could have a potentially significant negative impact on the current net asset value of the Group. These alternatives include: (1) raising additional capital my means other than those planned through equity and/or debt financings; (2) entering into new commercial relationships to help fund future clinical trial costs (i.e. licensing and partnerships); (3) reducing and/or deferring discretionary spending on general corporate overheads and one or more of our research and development and / or clinical programs; and/or (4) restructuring operations to change our overhead structure and make use of our manufacturing facilities to generate revenues from through third party manufacturing contracts. In the medium term the Company’s future liquidity needs, and ability to address those needs, will largely be determined by the success of its product candidates and key development and regulatory events and its decisions in the future.

Further detail about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern are described in Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Revenue from contracts with customers

Identification of contracts with pharma partners

The Company has entered into collaboration agreements with a number of parties. Application of IFRS 15 “Revenue from contracts and customers” on collaboration agreements requires judgement around whether these contracts were within the scope of IFRS 15.

The Company’s core business is around researching and developing immunotherapies and the contracts entered into with pharma partners are consistent with those objectives and the outputs are in line with the Company’s ordinary activities.

The contracts with pharma partners do not involve sharing the risks and benefits of a joint arrangement in the sense of IFRS 11 “Joint arrangements”.

In light of work being undertaken with pharma partners, and the fact that these agreements have commercial substance with clearly defined milestones and rights and obligations for each party, management concluded that these collaboration agreements meet the definition of a contract with a customer and fall within the scope of IFRS 15.

Identification of performance obligations in contracts

The collaboration agreements entered into by the Company include obligations to fulfil the research and development programs. The Company identified, from reviews of the relevant agreements, that there are no specific obligations but an implied performance obligation to deliver each overall contracted research and development program. Reflecting the broad nature of these obligations, spanning the full duration of the contract, the obligations are satisfied over the expected duration of the relevant contract.

Determination and allocation of the transaction price

The collaboration agreements include a number of elements of consideration and are allocated to the satisfaction of the relevant obligation.

The Company can receive upfront payments as part of the consideration. The Company has determined that upfront payments are in connection with the performance of the research and development program and are satisfied during the duration of the contract.

The business is entitled to receive contractual milestone payments on achievement of certain performance obligations, with revenue being recognized in the same way. The relevant transaction price is allocated to the related milestone.

Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next year are discussed below.

Revenue from contracts with customers

Timing of revenue recognition

Revenue from upfront payments in connection with collaboration agreements is recognized over the estimated term over which the services promised will be provided. This term was estimated by management at the inception of each contract and evaluated for the period ended June 30, 2022. The estimated time to complete as at June 30, 2022 is 17 months.

Due to the uncertainty around the time to complete multi-year collaboration programs it is possible that the estimated terms may be extended. If the estimated term of the current contracts had been adjusted by one year, then it would be expected that the corresponding revenue for the six month period to June 30, 2022 would have decreased by £339,201 and deferred income liabilities would have increased by £339,201 as at June 30, 2022. The business is entitled to receive contractual milestone payments on achievement of certain performance obligations. Due to significant uncertainties associated with the achievement of contractual milestones, no revenue has been recognized in relation to potential future milestone receipts and these will be recognized when the milestones are certain to occur.

Valuation of ordinary shares

In the period prior to become a listed Company on Nasdaq on February 10, 2022, there had been no public market for the Group’s ordinary shares, the estimated fair value of the ordinary shares in the financial periods prior to February 10, 2022 has been determined by management, considering the most recently available third-party valuations of the Group’s ordinary shares, and the assessment of additional objective and subjective factors that it believed were relevant and which may have changed from the date of the most recent valuation through the date of the grant.

After considering the Market Approach, the Income Approach and the Asset-based Approach, we utilized the Market Approach to determine the estimated fair value of our ordinary shares based on management’s determination that this approach was most appropriate for a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company at this point in its development, using the option-pricing method (“OPM”). Consideration was given to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Practice Aid: “Valuation of Privately-Held Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation”, the likelihood of completing an IPO and recent transactions with investors.

As a public trading market for our ordinary shares has now been established in connection with the completion of this offering, the fair value of our ordinary shares in connection with our accounting for embedded derivatives, warrants and share-based payment expenses will be determinable by reference to the trading price of our ordinary shares on Nasdaq.

Valuation of warrants

At the time of issue of the warrants at the IPO date there was no trading history, as such the Group determined that a more appropriate method for calculating the estimated fair value of the warrants at the point of recognition was using a Black Scholes option pricing model.

The Group determined the share price used in the fair value calculation in line with the methods discussed in Note 2 in connection with the ‘Valuation of ordinary shares’. As a recently listed entity, the Group’s share price does not have sufficient historical volatility to adequately assess the fair value of the embedded derivative. As a result, management considered the historical volatility of other comparable publicly traded companies and, based on this analysis, concluded that a volatility of 80% was appropriate for the valuation of embedded derivatives in in existence as at June 30, 2022.

As a public trading market for our listed warrants has now been established in connection with the completion of the IPO, under the ticker symbol ‘TCBPW’, the fair value of our listed warrants will be determinable by reference to the trading price of the warrants on Nasdaq.

With respect to our unlisted warrants that are in issue, in the absence of any trading history, the Group determined that the most appropriate method for calculating the estimated fair value of the warrants at the reporting date was using a Black Scholes option pricing model.

Share option and other share-based payment assumptions

The determination of the value of share-based payments requires management to use professional expertise to arrive at assumptions to be used to calculate the value of the share-based payment. The estimated fair value of the options outstanding in the period was calculated by applying a Monte Carlo Simulation for those options issued in 2021 and a Black Scholes Model for those options issued in 2022 and periods prior to 2021. The most appropriate approach is selected with reference to the share capital structure at the time of grant and the directors need to use judgement in setting the key assumptions. Further details are included in Note 14 to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

The Group determines the share price used in the fair value calculation in line with the methods discussed in Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022 in connection with the ‘Valuation of ordinary shares’. As a recently listed entity, the Group’s share price does not have sufficient historical volatility to adequately assess the fair value of the share option grants. As a result, management considered the historical volatility of other comparable publicly traded companies and, based on this analysis, concluded that a volatility of 80% was appropriate for the valuation of share options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2022. There were no share options granted in the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The expected life of the option, beginning with the option grant date, was used in valuing our share options. The expected life used in the calculation of share-based payment expense is the time from the grant date to the expected exercise date. The life of the options, which is a subjective estimate that can materially alter the valuation, depends on the option expiration date, volatility of the underlying shares and vesting features.

IFRS 2 “Share-based Payment” requires the use of the risk-free rate of the country in which the entity’s shares are principally held with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the option. This should also be the risk-free interest rate of the country in whose currency the exercise price is expressed. The Group has applied the appropriate risk-free rate, based on 4-year, 3-year and 2-year UK government bond yields as at the respective grant dates.

Convertible loan redemption date

The Group calculates the effective interest rate (“EIR”) to consider the potential repayment at redemption date by reference to the face value amount and including the 5% of interest rate in each relevant cash outflow period. At the time of a listing, 50% of the face value of loan notes in issue at the time (including interest accrued to date) converted to equity in the listed entity and 25% of the face value of the loan notes were repaid 90 days after the listing date. The remaining loan notes are repayable or convertible at the loan note holders’ option at 180 days after the listing date. For the purpose of calculating the EIR, management has used the listing date of February 10, 2022.

Embedded derivative assumptions

The estimated fair value of the embedded derivatives related to the issue of convertible loan notes at the point of recognition and at the period end was calculated by using a Black Scholes option pricing model.

The Group determined the share price used in the fair value calculation in line with the methods discussed in Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022 in connection with the ‘Valuation of ordinary shares’. As a recently listed entity, the Group’s share price does not have sufficient historical volatility to adequately assess the fair value of the embedded derivative. As a result, management considered the historical volatility of other comparable publicly traded companies and, based on this analysis, concluded that a volatility of 80% was appropriate for the valuation of embedded derivatives in in existence as at June 30, 2022.

The expected life of the embedded derivative was directly linked to expected redemption dates of the convertible loan note, as noted above.

The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of the risk-free rate of the currency in which the convertible loan note is denominated (US dollars). The Group has applied the appropriate risk-free rate, US treasury bond yields as at the respective redemption dates.

Emerging Growth Company

The federal securities laws provide that an emerging growth company may take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As an emerging growth company, we have irrevocably elected not to take advantage of the extended transition period for implementation of new or revised accounting standards and, as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth public companies.

In addition, we intend to rely on the other exemptions and reduced reporting requirements for emerging growth companies. Subject to certain conditions, we are entitled to rely on certain exemptions as an “emerging growth company,” we are not required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b), (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation-related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the chief executive officer’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our initial public offering, or December 2026, or until we no longer meet the requirements of being an emerging growth company, whichever is earlier.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

There are no recently issued accounting pronouncements that are expected to materially impact our financial position and results of operations.
