REPRO MED SYSTEMS, INC.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


NATURE OF OPERATIONS


REPRO MED SYSTEMS, INC. d/b/a KORU Medical Systems (the “Company”,“Company,” “KORU Medical”Medical,” “we,” “us” or “we”“our”) designs, manufactures and markets proprietary portable and innovative medical devices primarily for the ambulatory infusion market as governed by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) quality and regulatory system and international standards for quality system management. The Company operates as one segment.


FISCAL YEAR END


The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.


BASIS OF PRESENTATION


The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2020, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and with instructions to SEC regulation S-X for interim financial statements.


In the opinion of the Company’s management, the financial statements contain all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2020, and the results of operations and cash flow for the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2020, and 2019.


The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (“Annual Report”).  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from the accompanying financial statements.  The accompanying year-end balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report.  The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited and notes theretoreflect all adjustments which are in the opinion of management necessary for a fair statement of the Company and management’s discussion and analysis ofCompany’s financial condition andposition, results of operations, included in the Company’s Annual Reportand cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, as filed withperiods presented.  All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.  The Company’s results of operations and cash flows for the Securitiesinterim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.cash flows that it may achieve in future periods.


CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS


For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company holds cash in excess of $250,000 at its depository, which exceeds the FDIC insurance limits and is, therefore, uninsured.


CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT


The certificate of deposit was recorded at cost plus accrued interest.  The certificate of deposit earned interest at a rate of 1.73% and matured in May 2019.


INVENTORY


Inventories of raw materials are stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates average cost, or market value including allocable overhead.  Work-in-process and finished goods are stated at the lower of standard cost or market value and include direct labor and allocable overhead.


PATENTS


Costs incurred in obtaining patents have been capitalized and are being amortized over the legal life of the patents.


INCOME TAXES


Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.


- 6 -



The Company believes that it has no uncertain tax positions requiring disclosure or adjustment.  Generally, tax years starting with 20172018 are subject to examination by income tax authorities.


PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT, AND DEPRECIATION


Property and equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.


- 7 -



STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION


The Company maintains a stock option plan under which it grants stock options to certain executives, key employees and consultants. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  All options are charged against income at their fair value.  The entire compensation expense of the award is recognized over the vesting period. Shares of stock granted for director fees are recorded at the fair value of the shares at the grant date.


NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE


Basic earnings per share are computed on the weighted average of common shares outstanding during each year.  Diluted earnings per share include only an increase in the weighted average shares by the common shares issuable upon exercise of employee and consultant stock options.  See “NOTE 4 — STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION” for further detail.

USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. Important estimates include but are not limited to asset lives, valuation allowances, inventory valuation, and accruals.


REVENUE RECOGNITION


The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09—2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers.  We adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2018 on a full retrospective basis.  Adoption of this standard did not result in significant changes to our accounting policies, business processes, systems or controls, or have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows or related disclosures.  As such, prior period financial statements were not recast.


The Company’s revenues result from the sale of assembled products.  We recognize revenues when shipment occurs, and at which point the customer obtains control and ownership of the goods.  Shipping costs generally are billed to customers and are included in sales.


The Company generally does not accept return of goods shipped unless it is a Company error.  The only credits provided to customers are for defective merchandise.  The Company warrants the syringe driver from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and the warranty does not include a performance obligation.  The costs under the warranty are expensed as incurred.


Provisions for distributor pricing and annual customer volumegrowth rebates are variable consideration and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related sales are recorded or when it’sit is probable the annual growth target will be achieved. Rebates are provided to distributors for the difference in selling price to distributor and pricing specified to select customers.

LEASES


In February 2016, the FASB issued a new standard related to leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet.  Most prominent among the changes in the standard is the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by the Company for those leases classified as operating leases under current U.S. GAAP, while our accounting for capital leases remains substantially unchanged.  Under the standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.  The standard became effective for us on January 1, 2019.  The standard had a material impact on our balance sheet,sheets but did not have a material impact on our income statements.statements of operations.  See NOTE“NOTE 6 LEASES.LEASES” for further detail.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS RECENTLY ADOPTED


In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740):  Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing several exceptions including the exception to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year.  The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance.  The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020.  The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2021 and it had no impact on our financial statement disclosures.


ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED


In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13—2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326);: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities.  For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses.  The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected.  For available for sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, however Topic 326 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down.  This ASU affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income.  The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash.  The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption of the ASU on its financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.


In December 2019,March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 740):  Simplifying the Accounting848), which provided elective amendments for Income Taxes.entities that have contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform.  The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing several exceptions including the exceptionmay be applied to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year.  The amendments also improve consistent application ofimpacted contracts and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance.  The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning afterhedges prospectively through December 15, 2020.31, 2022.  The Company is assessingcurrently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the ASUthis guidance will have on its financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.statements.


The Company considers the applicability and impact of all recently issued accounting pronouncements.  Recent accounting pronouncements not specifically identified in our disclosures are either not applicable to the Company or are not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.


- 9 -



FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTSMEASUREMENTS


Fair value is the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability.  Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.  To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable:


Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.  Value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques and includes instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.


The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet forof cash trade receivables,and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximateare considered to be representative of their fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments.  There were no transfers between levels in the fair value based onhierarchy during the short-term maturity of these instruments.three months ended March 31, 2021.


ACCOUNTING FORIMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS


The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment at least annuallywhenever events or whenever thechanges in circumstances and situations change such that there is an indicationindicate that the carrying amountsamount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.  AsAn impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of June 30, 2020, the Company does not believe that anyasset and its eventual disposition are less than the carrying amount.  The impairment loss, if recognized, would be based on the excess of the carrying value of the impaired asset over its assets are impaired.respective fair value.  No impairment losses have been recorded through March 31, 2021.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior period data to the current presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on reported net income.

NOTE 3  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


The Company has been and may again become involved in legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.  KORU Medical is not presently a party to any litigation or other legal proceeding that is believed to be material to its financial condition.


- 810 -



NOTE 3  LEGAL PROCEEDINGSOn March 26, 2021, a putative class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and its Chief Financial Officer and former Chief Executive Officer, alleging they made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations and prospects, in the Company’s earnings communications and Form 10-Q filed during the period August 4, 2020 and January 25, 2021.  The plaintiff is seeking unspecified compensatory damages, an award of reasonable costs and expenses, including counsel fees and expert fees, and such other relief as the Court may deem just and proper.  The Company believes that the plaintiff’s allegations are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against the claims.  Because the litigation is in its early stages, the Company is unable to estimate a reasonable possible loss or range of loss, if any, that may result from this matter.


From 2013 until May 2020, we were involved in several lawsuits with our principal competitor, EMED, Technologies Corporationwhich were all settled in May 2020.

(“EMED”Command”).  EMED alleged that our, pursuant to which Command has agreed to manufacture and supply the Company’s subassemblies, needle sets infringed various patents controlled by EMED.  Certain of these lawsuits also alleged antitrust violations, unfair business practices, and various other business tort claims.   On May 26,tubing products pursuant to the Company’s specifications and purchase orders.  The first binding purchase order pursuant to the Manufacturing and Supply Agreement was made on November 17, 2020 the parties announced the settlement of all of the litigation between KORU Medical and EMED.  The settlement agreement provides KORU Medical with freedom to operate under EMED’s existing patent portfolio, dismissal of all litigation with prejudice (including the claims against Andrew Sealfon, our former President and Chief Executive Officer), and an equity payment by KORU Medical to EMED. The settled litigation is described below.(the “Effective Date”).


The initial case involving EMED was filedManufacturing and Supply Agreement provides for a term of five years from the Effective Date.  Either party may terminate the Manufacturing and Supply Agreement upon a material breach by usthe other Party that has not been cured within 90 days, upon the bankruptcy or insolvency of the other Party or as expressly set forth elsewhere in the United States District CourtAgreement.  If the Company terminates the Manufacturing and Supply Agreement other than for those reasons within the Eastern District of California on September 20, 2013 (the “California case”), in responsefirst three years from the Effective Date, the Company is obligated to a letter from EMED claiming patent infringement by us, and sought a declaratory judgment establishing the invalidity of the patent referenced in the letter – EMED’s US patent 8,500,703 – “’703.”  EMED answered the complaint and asserted patent infringement of the ’703 patent and several counterclaims relating generallypay an early termination fee to claims of unfair business practices against us.  We responded by adding several claims against EMED, generally relating to claims of unfair business practices on EMED’s part.  On June 16, 2015, the California court entered a preliminary injunction against KORU Medical for making certain statements regarding products cleared for use by the FDA, or that could be safely used, with KORU Medical’s Freedom60 pump, without voiding the product warranty.  On September 11, 2015, we requested an ex parte reexamination of the ’703 patent by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”).  The ex parte reexamination resulted in the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) of the USPTO determining that claims 1-10 of the ’703 patent are invalid, leaving claim 11 as the only surviving claim of the ’703 patent.  Claim 11 of the ’703 patent, however, was not asserted in the California case.  EMED informed KORU Medical it will neither appeal the PTAB’s decision nor pursue a claim based on infringement of claim 11 of the ’703 patent in the California case.Command.


The second court case was filed by EMED in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (the “Texas Court”) on June 25, 2015, claiming patent infringement on another of its patents (US 8,961,476 – “’476”), by our needle sets,Manufacturing and seeking unspecified monetary damages (“ED Texas ’476 matter”).  This ’476 patent is relatedSupply Agreement also includes customary provisions relating to, the invalid claims of the EMED ’703 patent.


On September 17, 2015, we requested an inter partes review (“IPR”) of the ’476 patent,among other things, delivery, inspection procedures, warranties, quality management, business continuity plans, handling and subsequently after a trial the PTAB issued a Final Written Decision in our favor, invalidating all claims but one (“dependent Claim 9”) of the ’476 patent.  EMED appealed the PTAB’s ruling to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “CAFC”), which affirmed the PTAB’s Final Written Decision in our favor on April 3, 2018.


During the IPR proceedings regarding the ’476 patent, EMED filed a new patent application that subsequently issued as US 9,808,576 – “’576” on November 7, 2017.  On this same date, EMED filed a new case (the “third case”) in the Texas Court claiming patent infringement of the ’576 patent by our needle sets,transport, intellectual property, confidentiality and seeking unspecified damages and a preliminary injunction against marketing and sales of our needle sets.  We moved to dismiss or transfer venue to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (“SDNY”), which resulted in the transfer of the third case to SDNY (“SDNY ’576 matter”) on May 30, 2018.indemnification.


On April 23, 2018, EMED filed a new civil case (the “fourth case”) against us in the Texas Court asserting antitrust, defamation and unfair business practice claims, and seeking unspecified damages, similar to those previously presented in the California case, described above.  The fourth case also named Andrew Sealfon, then President and Chief Executive Officer of KORU Medical, individually as a defendant.  Following a hearing held on November 14, 2018 to address a motion we had filed to transfer venue, on December 7, 2018, the Texas Court transferred the fourth case to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California (the “California Court”).  We then moved to dismiss that complaint, and Andrew Sealfon filed a separate motion to dismiss the case as to him for lack of jurisdiction.


- 9 -



At the same hearing on November 14, 2018, the Texas Court granted EMED leave to amend its infringement contentions to assert infringement of that sole remaining claim 9 of the ’476 patent. In April 2019, EMED served its damages expert’s report opining that EMED’s past infringement damages amount to $1.5 million, and in May KORU Medical served its damages expert’s rebuttal report opining that EMED’s expert miscalculated damages which if properly calculated would amount to less than $100,000.  We moved to dismiss the case for lack of infringement.  On June 24, 2019, the Texas Court Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation decision granting summary judgment in our favor, finding no infringement, literally or under the doctrine of equivalents, by KORU Medical’s accused products.  EMED’s objections were overruled and on June 28, 2019, the Texas Court issued a Final Judgment in favor of KORU Medical, awarded court costs to KORU Medical, and dismissed the case.  A final judgment was entered and KORU Medical submitted its Bill of Costs for approximately $16,000, which was ordered granted by the Texas Court.  KORU Medical also moved to declare the case exceptional and for recovery of its attorney fees and expenses of approximately $2.5 million in defense of EMED’s assertion of the ’476 Patent.  EMED appealed the non-infringement judgment to the CAFC.  On April 9, 2020, the CAFC issued a unanimous decision affirming the Texas Court’s judgment of non-infringement.  The Texas Court had stayed proceedings in the district court until the appeal process was completed.


The SDNY ’576 matter proceeded in the New York court through claim construction on the ’576 Patent, whereupon KORU Medical filed a motion for summary judgement of non-infringement.  That motion was granted on August 30, 2019, and the New York court dismissed the lawsuit and entered a final judgement.  KORU Medical submitted a Bill of Costs for approximately $1,500, to which EMED objected, and moved the New York court to declare the case exceptional and for recovery of its attorney fees and expenses of at least $1.16 million. On November 12, 2019, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation that KORU Medical’s fee motion be granted, and KORU Medical be awarded approximately $1.1 million in fees and expenses.  EMED filed objections to that Report and Recommendation.  EMED also appealed the New York court’s judgment of non-infringement to the CAFC, which the parties had fully briefed, and were awaiting a decision from the CAFC Court.


The aforementioned district court litigation has now been finally dismissed with prejudice, and all associated appeals dismissed.

OVERVIEW


The Company designs, manufactures and markets proprietary portable and innovative medical devices primarily for the ambulatory infusion market as governed by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) quality and regulatory system and international standards for quality system management.


KORU Medical continues to monitor its operations and government recommendations and has made modifications to its normal operations because of the COVID-19 outbreak,pandemic, including requiring most of its non-production related team members to work remotely or on a staggered work shift.  The Company has continued to maintain a manufacturing operational capacity at its manufacturing facility located in Chester, New York, and has instituted heightened cleaning and sanitization standards and several health and safety protocols and procedures to safeguard its team members who do continue to report in person.  Until the duration of the pandemic is known, we cannot predict the effects the pandemic may have on our business, in particular with respect to demand for our products, our strategy, and our prospects, the effects on our customers, or the impact on our financial results.  For example, our future net sales growth may continue to be impacted due to fewer new prescriptions for individuals with Primary Immune Deficiency Disease (“PIDD”) and Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (“CIDP”) as a result of patients not seeking care during the pandemic.


On April 14, 2020,- 17 -



Our revenues derive from three business sources: (i) domestic core, (ii) international core, and (iii) novel therapies.  Our core revenues consist of sales of our products for the Company issued a promissory notedelivery of SCIg to treat PIDD, CIDP, and other disease states that are not included in novel therapies.  Novel therapies currently consist of revenues from clinical trials, which include sales of pumps, tubing and needles.


Total net sales were $5.4 million, or 14% lower for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the KeyBank National Association (the “Bank”)prior year period.  The decrease was due principally to lower novel therapies compared with last year due to a non-recurring clinical trial, lower pump volume in our domestic core business due to prior year ordering patterns and a one-time pharmaceutical customer pump purchase.  Domestic core net sales also reflected a slowdown in the aggregate principalgrowth of new patient starts for SCIg therapy.


We incurred a significant amount of $3.5expenses totaling $1.3 million as an extension of its line of credit, replacing its current line of credit agreement and promissory note withduring the Bank dated February 8, 2018 (the “Original Note”).  In response to concerns about the potential impact of COVID-19, the Company elected to draw the additional $2.0 million available under the line of credit, drawing the full amount available of $3.5 million on its line of credit.


On April 20, 2020, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement with the Bank (the “PPP Loan Agreement”) pursuantquarter related to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief,departure and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), providing for a loan in the principal amountreplacement of $1.5 million (the “PPP Loan”).  The PPP Loan was funded on April 27, 2020.  On May 13, 2020, the Company returned the funds it received.


On May 20, 2020, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with EMED Technologies Corporation (“EMED”) to settle all claims in connection with all pending litigation matters between them (the “Claims”). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company issued to EMED (i) 95,238 restricted stock units, which vested on May 21, 2020 and 95,238 restricted stock units vesting on January 1, 2021, and (ii) an option to purchase up to 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $11.21 per share prior to February 1, 2021, which can be settled in cash in lieu of common stock at the Company’s sole discretion, provided that the number of shares of common stock and/or amount of cash paid by the Company upon exercise will be capped at a value of $16.21 per share. The Settlement Agreement includes mutual releases and covenants not to sue for any claim arising before May 20, 2020our Chief Executive Officer and the Company covenants not to challenge any EMED patents that were the subjectrecruitment of the Claims unless EMED asserts them in the future against Company products.  The aggregatetwo new Board members, which included non-cash litigation settlement expense recognized during the period ended June 30, 2020 was $2.2equity charges of $0.4 million.


On June 18,Our inventory position increased $1.2 million from at December 31, 2020 as we transition manufacturing to our secondary source.  As transition is completed, this inventory is expected to convert to a source of cash in the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Piper Sandler & Co. and Canaccord Genuity LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell 3,125,000 shares of its common stock. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable for a period of 30 days, to purchase up to an additional 468,750 shares of the Company’s common stock, which the Underwriters exercised in full on June 19, 2020. The Underwriters purchased the shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, including the shares subject to the option, at a price of $7.52 per share with proceeds to the Company net of discounts, commissions, fees and expenses of $26.5 million.future.


We ended the second quarter of 2020 with net sales of $7.7 million, an increase of 44% compared with the same period last year, driven primarily by higher sales volume in needle sets, tubing and pump sales, due to what we believe was continued demand increases which included clinical trials, as well as increased purchasing to support the trends towards at-home infusion therapy and in response to the uncertainties created by COVID-19.


Our gross margin percentage, which is gross profit stated as a percentage of net sales, was 63.7% down from 65.0% in the prior year mostly due to overtime costs related to COVID-19 absenteeism. Gross margin was 65.4% when adjusted for overtime.


Net loss was $1.1 million for the quarter, compared with net income of $0.1 million for the previous year, driven by the $2.2 million stock based litigation settlement expense, partially offset by higher net sales compared with last year.  

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $38.1 million cash on hand, including $26.5 million resulting from the capital raise during the quarter described above, and a draw of $3.5 million on the line of credit.

Total net sales increased $3.7 million or 36.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The volume increase was driven by what we believe was continued growth in diagnosis of primary immunodeficiency diseases (“PIDD”) and expansion into the neurology market with expanded Hizentra® indication for chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (“CIDP”) and clinical trials, as well as increased purchasing to support the trend towards at-home infusion therapy and in response to the uncertainties created by COVID-19.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Our principal source of liquidity is our cash on hand of $38.1$26.8 million as of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, which includes the net proceeds from the recent2020 capital raise described below totaling $26.5 million and a $3.5 million draw against our line of credit.  In response to concerns about the potential impact of COVID-19, the Company elected to draw $3.5 million, the full amount available on its line of credit.$26.6 million.  Our principal source of operating cash inflows is from sales of our products to customers. Our principal cash outflows relate to the purchase and production of inventory and related costs, and selling, general and administrative expenses.


On June 18, 2020, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Piper Sandler & Co. and Canaccord Genuity LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell 3,125,000 shares of its common stock. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable for a period of 30 days, to purchase up to an additional 468,750 shares of the Company’s common stock, which the Underwriters exercised in full on June 19, 2020. The Underwriters purchased the shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, including the shares subject to the option, at a price of $7.52 per share with proceeds to the Company net of discounts, commissions, fees and expenses of $26.5 million.

On May 20, 2020, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with EMED Technologies Corporation (“EMED”) to settle all claims in connection with all pending litigation matters between them (the “Claims”). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company issued to EMED (i) 95,238 restricted stock units, which vested on May 21, 2020 and 95,238 restricted stock units vesting on January 1, 2021, and (ii) an option to purchase up to 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $11.21 per share prior to February 1, 2021, which can be settled in cash in lieu of common stock at the Company’s sole discretion, provided that the number of shares of common stock and/or amount of cash paid by the Company upon exercise will be capped at a value of $16.21 per share. The Settlement Agreement includes mutual releases and covenants not to sue for any claim arising before May 20, 2020 and the Company covenants not to challenge any EMED patents that were the subject of the Claims unless EMED asserts them in the future against Company products.  This was a non-cash settlement from which we recognized expense in the amount of $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2020.


The Company’s operations continue to remain active, as we currently qualify as an “essential business” under New York state government guidelines.  With the COVID-19 outbreak, the need to ensure vulnerable patients have access to home-based treatments is more apparent than ever.  Home infusion therapy keeps high-risk patients with immune diseases and other conditions out of institutional settings and allows them to receive treatment at home.


We believe that as of June 30, 2020, cash on hand and cash expected to be generated from future operating activities will be sufficient to fund our operations, including further research and development and capital expenditures, for the next 12 months, as well as accelerate execution of our strategic initiatives.  We believe KORU Medical’s home infusion products continue to find a solid following in the subcutaneous immunoglobulin (“SCIg”) market, as well as, into new markets like neurology where Hizentra® received an expanded indication for CIDP.

Operating Activities


Net cash used in operating activities of $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily due to the net loss of $1.3 million, working capital changes which include an increase in inventory of $1.2 million related to the transition of manufacturing to our secondary source, an increase in accounts receivable of $1.0 million due to delayed payments at our largest distributor, as well as a decrease in accrued expenses of $0.9 million most of which was non-cash activity related to the issuance of common stock in settlement of litigation.  Further contributing were deferred tax assets of $0.9 million increased for book to tax differences related to stock option expense.  Offsetting these were primarily non-cash charges for stock-based compensation of $0.7 million, an increase in accounts payable of $1.3 million due to timing of payments and an increase in accrued payroll of $0.4 million related to the separation agreement with our former chief executive officer.


Net cash provided by operating activities of $2.7$0.2 million for the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 was mostly attributable to net income of $0.4 million, non-cash charges for stock-based compensation and litigation settlement expense of $2.1$0.4 million, an increase in accounts payable accrued expensesof $0.5 million and accrued payroll of $2.1 million, driven by the litigation settlement with EMED, the capital raise and customer rebates.  Further adding to the increase was an increase in tax liability of $0.3 million, resulting from book tax differences related to option expense.  Collection against accounts receivable also contributed $0.3$0.2 million.  Offsetting these were an increase in inventory of $1.3$0.7 million, and a decrease in accrued expenses of $0.4 million mostly related to cash payments for bonuses accrued for at December 31, 2019, net of current year accrual for bonuses, offset by higher rebates.  Further offsetting the cash provided by operating activities was an increase in prepaid expenses of $0.2 million, as we built inventory to keep pace with sales growth and to insure timely order fulfillment.


Net cash used in operating activities of $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was mostly attributable to increasedwell as higher accounts receivable of $1.9 million as one of our major customer’s payment terms changed on January 1, 2019 from net 30 to net 60 days, and increased inventory of $0.5 million as we look to build stock to keep pace with sales growth.  Partially offsetting these were our non-cash charges for stock based compensation of $0.5 million and depreciation and amortization of long lived tangible and intangible asset of $0.2 million.


Investing Activities


Net cash used in investing activities of $0.5$0.1 million for the sixthree months ending June 30,March 31, 2021 was for capital expenditures for manufacturing and office equipment.


Net cash used in investing activities of $0.2 million for the three months ending March 31, 2020 was for capital expenditures for research and development and strategic initiatives as well as for patent and trademark applications.  Net cash of $1.5 million provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was mostly the result of the maturation of a certificate of deposit for $1.5 million and the sale of the house the Company owned for $0.2 million, offset by capital expenditures and patent application and maintenance of $0.2 million.

Financing Activities


The $30.1$2.2 million provided by financing activities for the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 is from options exercised and the non-cash activity related to the issuance of common stock in settlement of litigation.


The $1.6 million provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 is from the $26.5$1.5 million capital raise, net of expenses, a $3.5 million drawdrawn down on the line of credit and $0.1 million from options exercised.  The $19,811 provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 is a result of options exercised less payments for cancelled shares and leased office equipment.


RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS RECENTLY ADOPTED


In June 2016,Refer to “NOTE 1 — NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES” in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13—Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326); Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities.  For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses.  The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected.  For available for sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, however Topic 326 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down.  This ASU affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income.  The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash.  The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption of the ASU on itsaccompanying financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.which is incorporated herein by reference.


In December 2019,ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED


Refer to “NOTE 1 — NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES” in the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes (Topic 740):  Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing several exceptions including the exception to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year.  The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance.  The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020.  The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption of the ASU on itsaccompanying financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.which is incorporated herein by reference.


The Company considers the applicability and impact of all recently issued accounting pronouncements.  Recent accounting pronouncements not specifically identified in our disclosures are either not applicable to the Company or are not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.


NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES


Management of the Company believes that investors’ understanding of the Company’s performance is enhanced by disclosing non-GAAP financial measures as a reasonable basis for comparison of the Company’s ongoing results of operations.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP-basis measures and results.  Our non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to non-GAAP measures of other companies.  The table below provides a disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most closely analogous measure determined in accordance with GAAP.


Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.  They are limited in value because they exclude charges that have a material effect on our reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures to evaluate our financial results.  The non-GAAP financial measures are meant to supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, GAAP financial results.

We disclose and discuss Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure in our public releases, including quarterly earnings releases, and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings (net income) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, reorganization charges, and litigation, manufacturing initiative and stock option expenses.  Prior to January 1, 2020, discontinued product expense and manufacturing initiative expense was not included in our definition of Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is used by investors and other users of our financial statements as a supplemental financial measure that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, we believe provides additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business.  We also believe the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare our cash flow generating capacity from quarter to quarter and year to year.  Adjusted EBITDA is used by management as a supplemental internal measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations.  Because management uses Adjusted EBITDA for such purposes, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a significant criterion for determining the amount of annual cash incentive compensation paid to our executive officers and employees.  We have historically found that Adjusted EBITDA is superior to other metrics for our company-wide cash incentive program, as it is more easily explained and understood by our typical employee.

Discontinued Product Expense.  We have excluded the effect of expenses related to a discontinued product line in calculating our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA measure.  We expected to sunset our Res-Q-Vac product line in 2020, but due to the failure of equipment used to manufacture the product, the discontinuation and resulting expense was accelerated into the first quarter of 2020 which we would not otherwise incur in periods presented as part of our continuing operations.  Subsequently, in the second quarter of 2020 we sold off a portion of the discontinued inventory previously reserved.  We do not expect to incur any related expenses in the future.


Reorganization Charges.  We have excluded the effect of Reorganization Charges in calculating our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA measure.  We incurred significant expenses in connection with the termination and replacement of C-suite executives and senior management which we would not otherwise incur in periods presented as part of our continuing operations.  Reorganization charges include costs related to the replacement of C-suite executives including a transition bonus and recruiting fees, prior to March 31, 2019.


Litigation Expenses.  We have excluded litigation expenses in calculating our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA measure.  Litigation expenses include stock based litigation settlement expense of $2.2 million related to the settlement agreement entered into with EMED on May 20, 2020.  We continue to evaluate our business performance excluding litigation fees, however, we expect these expenses related to the EMED litigation to discontinue as a result of the settlement.


Manufacturing Initiative Expenses.  We have excluded the effect of expenses related to the implementation of those portions of our strategic plan related to creating manufacturing efficiencies, in calculating our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA measure.  We incurred expenses in connection with executing on these initiatives which we would not otherwise incur in periods presented as part of our continuing operations.  We expect to incur related expenses for the next twelve to eighteen months as we continue to execute on our strategic plan.


Stock Option Expense.  We have excluded the effect of stock option expenses in calculating our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA measure.  Although stock option compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, we continue to evaluate our business performance excluding stock option compensation expenses.  We record non-cash compensation expense related to grants of options and depending upon the size, timing and the terms of the grants, the non-cash compensation expense may vary significantly but will recur in future periods.

PART I – ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


The Company’s management, including the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as such is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  Based upon their evaluations, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarterthree months ended June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


The Company has been and may again become involved in legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.  KORU Medical is not presently a party to any litigation or other legal proceeding that is believed to be material to its financial condition.


On March 26, 2021, a putative class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and its Chief Financial Officer and former Chief Executive Officer, alleging they made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations and prospects, in the Company’s earnings communications and Form 10-Q filed during the period August 4, 2020 and January 25, 2021.  The plaintiff is seeking unspecified compensatory damages, an award of reasonable costs and expenses, including counsel fees and expert fees, and such other relief as the Court may deem just and proper.  The Company believes that the plaintiff’s allegations are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against the claims.  Because the litigation is in its early stages, the Company is unable to estimate a reasonable possible loss or range of loss, if any, that may result from this matter.


From 2013 until May 2020, we were involved in several lawsuits with our principal competitor, EMED, Technologies Corporation (“EMED”).  EMED alleged thatwhich were all settled in May 2020.  Refer to our needle sets infringed various patents controlled by EMED.  Certain of these lawsuits also alleged antitrust violations, unfair business practices, and various other business tort claims.   On May 26, 2020, the parties announced the settlement of all of the litigation between KORU Medical and EMED.  The settlement agreement provides KORU Medical with freedom to operate under EMED’s existing patent portfolio, dismissal of all litigation with prejudice (including the claims against Andrew Sealfon, our former President and Chief Executive Officer), and an equity payment by KORU Medical to EMED. The settled litigation is described below.


The initial case involving EMED was filed by us in the United States District CourtForm 10-Q for the Eastern District of California on September 20, 2013 (the “California case”), in response to a letter from EMED claiming patent infringement by us, and sought a declaratory judgment establishing the invalidity of the patent referenced in the letter – EMED’s US patent 8,500,703 – “’703.”  EMED answered the complaint and asserted patent infringement of the ’703 patent and several counterclaims relating generally to claims of unfair business practices against us.  We responded by adding several claims against EMED, generally relating to claims of unfair business practices on EMED’s part.  Onquarterly period ended June 16, 2015, the California court entered a preliminary injunction against KORU Medical for making certain statements regarding products cleared for use by the FDA, or that could be safely used, with KORU Medical’s Freedom60 pump, without voiding the product warranty.  On September 11, 2015, we requested an ex parte reexamination of the ’703 patent by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”).  The ex parte reexamination resulted in the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) of the USPTO determining that claims 1-10 of the ’703 patent are invalid, leaving claim 11 as the only surviving claim of the ’703 patent.  Claim 11 of the ’703 patent, however, was not asserted in the California case.  EMED informed KORU Medical it will neither appeal the PTAB’s decision nor pursue a claim based on infringement of claim 11 of the ’703 patent in the California case.


The second court case was filed by EMED in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (the “Texas Court”) on June 25, 2015, claiming patent infringement on another of its patents (US 8,961,476 – “’476”), by our needle sets, and seeking unspecified monetary damages (“ED Texas ’476 matter”).  This ’476 patent is related to the invalid claims of the EMED ’703 patent.


On September 17, 2015, we requested an inter partes review (“IPR”) of the ’476 patent, and subsequently after a trial the PTAB issued a Final Written Decision in our favor, invalidating all claims but one (“dependent Claim 9”) of the ’476 patent.  EMED appealed the PTAB’s ruling to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “CAFC”), which affirmed the PTAB’s Final Written Decision in our favor on April 3, 2018.


During the IPR proceedings regarding the ’476 patent, EMED filed a new patent application that subsequently issued as US 9,808,576 – “’576” on November 7, 2017.  On this same date, EMED filed a new case (the “third case”) in the Texas Court claiming patent infringement of the ’576 patent by our needle sets, and seeking unspecified damages and a preliminary injunction against marketing and sales of our needle sets.  We moved to dismiss or transfer venue to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (“SDNY”), which resulted in the transfer of the third case to SDNY (“SDNY ’576 matter”) on May 30, 2018.2020.


- 23 -



On April 23, 2018, EMED filed a new civil case (the “fourth case”) against us in the Texas Court asserting antitrust, defamation and unfair business practice claims, and seeking unspecified damages, similar to those previously presented in the California case, described above.  The fourth case also named Andrew Sealfon, then President and Chief Executive Officer of KORU Medical, individually as a defendant.  Following a hearing held on November 14, 2018 to address a motion we had filed to transfer venue, on December 7, 2018, the Texas Court transferred the fourth case to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California (the “California Court”).  We then moved to dismiss that complaint, and Andrew Sealfon filed a separate motion to dismiss the case as to him for lack of jurisdiction.


At the same hearing on November 14, 2018, the Texas Court granted EMED leave to amend its infringement contentions to assert infringement of that sole remaining claim 9 of the ’476 patent. In April 2019, EMED served its damages expert’s report opining that EMED’s past infringement damages amount to $1.5 million, and in May KORU Medical served its damages expert’s rebuttal report opining that EMED’s expert miscalculated damages which if properly calculated would amount to less than $100,000.  We moved to dismiss the case for lack of infringement.  On June 24, 2019, the Texas Court Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation decision granting summary judgment in our favor, finding no infringement, literally or under the doctrine of equivalents, by KORU Medical’s accused products.  EMED’s objections were overruled and on June 28, 2019, the Texas Court issued a Final Judgment in favor of KORU Medical, awarded court costs to KORU Medical, and dismissed the case.  A final judgment was entered and KORU Medical submitted its Bill of Costs for approximately $16,000, which was ordered granted by the Texas Court.  KORU Medical also moved to declare the case exceptional and for recovery of its attorney fees and expenses of approximately $2.5 million in defense of EMED’s assertion of the ’476 Patent.  EMED appealed the non-infringement judgment to the CAFC.  On April 9, 2020, the CAFC issued a unanimous decision affirming the Texas Court’s judgment of non-infringement.  The Texas Court had stayed proceedings in the district court until the appeal process was completed.


The SDNY ’576 matter proceeded in the New York court through claim construction on the ’576 Patent, whereupon KORU Medical filed a motion for summary judgement of non-infringement.  That motion was granted on August 30, 2019, and the New York court dismissed the lawsuit and entered a final judgement.  KORU Medical submitted a Bill of Costs for approximately $1,500, to which EMED objected, and moved the New York court to declare the case exceptional and for recovery of its attorney fees and expenses of at least $1.16 million. On November 12, 2019, the Magistrate Judge issued a Report and Recommendation that KORU Medical’s fee motion be granted, and KORU Medical be awarded approximately $1.1 million in fees and expenses.  EMED filed objections to that Report and Recommendation.  EMED also appealed the New York court’s judgment of non-infringement to the CAFC, which the parties had fully briefed, and were awaiting a decision from the CAFC Court.


The aforementioned district court litigation has now been finally dismissed with prejudice, and all associated appeals dismissed.


ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS


Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”“PART 1, ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and the trading price of our common stock.   The following areThere have been no material changes to our risk factors since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019:


Our business could be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.


The COVID-19 pandemic has and will continue affecting economies and businesses around the world.  We are closely monitoring the impact of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business, including how it may impact our employees and business operations. While we did not incur significant disruptions during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 from the COVID-19 pandemic, we may experience disruptions that could severely impact our results of operations and financial condition.  We are unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on our operating results and financial condition due to numerous uncertainties.  These uncertainties include the geographic spread of the pandemic, the severity of the virus, the impact of the virus directly on our employees or those of our suppliers, the duration of the outbreak, governmental actions, travel restrictions and social distancing, business closures or business disruptions (including those impacting our supply chain), the effectiveness of actions taken in the United States and other countries to contain and treat the disease, the availability of plasma and drugs that are administered by our products, changes to our operations, or whether the United States and additional countries are required to move to complete lock-down status, among others.  Our sales representatives are unable to hold in-person meetings with customers and health care providers to discuss our products, which may impact our sales.  As local jurisdictions continue to put restrictions in place, our ability to continue to manufacture our products may also be limited. Such events may result in a period of business and manufacturing disruption, and in reduced operations, any of which could materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The health of our workforce and our ability to meet staffing needs at our facility cannot be predicted and is vital to our operations. We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely and intend to follow health and safety guidelines as they evolve.  Further, the spread of COVID-19, which has caused a broad impact globally, may materially affect us economically. While the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of,

COVID-19 may be difficult to assess or predict, it has resulted in significant disruption of global financial markets, which could reduce our ability to access capital, negatively affecting our liquidity. In addition, the recession resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could materially affect our business and the value of our common stock. The ultimate long-term impact of COVID-19 is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence.2020.
