us by, these other parties.

We are a women’s health carehealthcare company focused onwith a mission of creating and commercializing innovative products targeted exclusivelyto support the lifespan of women from pregnancy prevention through menopause. At TherapeuticsMD, we combine entrepreneurial spirit, clinical expertise, and business leadership to develop and commercialize health solutions that enable new standards of care for women. Currently, we are focused on pursuing the regulatory approvals and pre-commercialization activities necessary for commercialization of ourOur solutions range from a patient-controlled, long-lasting contraceptive to advanced hormone therapy pharmaceutical products. Our drug candidates thatWe also have completed clinical trials are designed to alleviate the symptomsa portfolio of and reduce the health risks resulting from menopause-related hormone deficiencies, including hot flashes, osteoporosis and vaginal discomfort. We are developing these hormone therapy drug candidates, which contain estradiol and progesterone alone or in combination, with the aim of demonstrating clinical efficacy at lower doses, thereby enabling an enhanced side effect profile compared with competing products. With our SYMBODA™ technology, we are developing advanced hormone therapy pharmaceutical products to enable delivery of bio-identical hormones through a variety of dosage forms and administration routes. In addition, we manufacture and distribute branded and generic prescription prenatal vitamins under the vitaMedMD and BocaGreenMD brands. Our portfolio of products focused on women’s health allows us to efficiently leverage our sales and marketing plan to grow our recently approved products.

vitaCare Divestiture

On April 14, 2022, we completed the divestiture of vitaCare Prescription Services, Inc. (“vitaCare”) with the sale of all of vitaCare’s issued and outstanding capital stock (the “vitaCare Divestiture”). We received net proceeds of $142.6 million, net of transaction costs of $7.2 million, and we recognized a gain on sale of business of $143.4 million. Included in the net proceeds amount was $11.3 million of customary holdbacks as provided in the stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), which is recorded as restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets. The restricted cash is held by an escrow agent and will be released to us in April 2023 upon a joint written direction from the buyer and us being delivered to the escrow agent to disburse to us an amount equal to the amount of escrow funds less any amounts subject to a claim notice in accordance with the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Any amounts subject to a claim notice in accordance with the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement shall be retained by the escrow agent until each such claim subject thereto is resolved. Additionally, we may receive up to an additional $7.0 million in earn-out consideration, contingent upon vitaCare’s financial performance through 2023 as determined in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. We will record the contingent consideration at the settlement amount when the consideration is realized or realizable.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, covenants, and indemnities of the parties thereto. In addition, upon closing of the vitaCare Divestiture, (i) we entered into a long-term services agreement with vitaCare to continue utilization of the vitaCare platform with respect to our products, and (ii) we entered into a transition services agreement with vitaCare for us to provide certain transition services to vitaCare for up to 12 months following the closing. Under the long-term services agreement, we are required to pay to vitaCare a minimum service fee for each respective annual contract year. Our estimated minimum service fee commitments for vitaCare are as follows: $2.0 million for the period from October 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, $10.7 million for 2023, $13.4 million for 2024, $15.4 million for 2025, $16.2 million for 2026, and $5.5 million for the period from January 1, 2027 to April 14, 2027.

COVID-19

With multiple variant strains of the SARS-Cov-2 virus and the COVID-19 disease that it causes (collectively, “COVID-19”) still circulating, we continue to be subject to risks and uncertainties in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent of the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business continues to be highly uncertain and difficult to predict. The ultimate global recovery from the pandemic will be dependent on, among other things, actions taken by governments and businesses to contain and combat the virus, including any variant strains, the speed and effectiveness of vaccine production and global distribution, as well as over-the-counter,how quickly, and to what extent, normal economic and operating conditions can resume on a sustainable basis globally.

Since the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been using substantial virtual options to ensure business continuity. We have also partnered with independent community pharmacies and multiple third-party online pharmacies and telemedicine providers that focus on contraception or OTC, iron supplements.menopause which provide patients real-time access to both diagnosis and treatment. We continue to support prescribers’ needs with samples and product materials through our sales force. If access is restricted, we have mailing options in place for these materials. We also have business continuity plans and infrastructure in place that allows for live virtual e-detailing of our products.


As part of our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we implemented measures to reduce marketing expenses and implemented cost saving measures, which included negotiating lower fees or suspending services from third-party vendors; implementing a company-wide hiring restriction; delaying or cancelling non-critical information technology projects; and eliminating non-essential travel, entertainment, meeting, and event expenses. In addition, we implemented a significant cost savings initiative that was designed to reduce our annual operating costs in 2022, and we reduced the operating costs of the vitaCare business with the completion of the vitaCare Divestiture on April 14, 2022. See above for additional information regarding the vitaCare Divestiture.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited interimfull impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. As of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, the future extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to materially impact our financial condition, liquidity, or results of TherapeuticsMD,operations remains uncertain. We are continuing to assess the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations by monitoring the spread of COVID-19 and the various actions implemented to combat the pandemic throughout the world. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business as a result of any economic recession or depression that has occurred or may occur in the future.

While we currently believe that our COVID-19 contingency plan has the ability to mitigate many of the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, the severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic, the duration of “social distancing” orders, the ability of our sales force to access healthcare providers to promote our products, increases in unemployment, which could reduce access to commercial health insurance for our patients, thus limiting payer coverage for our products, and the impact of the pandemic on our global supply chain, all of which remain uncertain. Our future results of operations and liquidity could be materially adversely affected by delays in payments of outstanding receivable amounts beyond normal payment terms, supply chain disruptions, uncertain demand, and the impact of any initiatives or programs that we may undertake to address financial and operations challenges that we may face.

Going concern

We incurred a loss from operations of $65.8 million and interest expense and other financing costs of $30.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and as of that date, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $86.6 million and our total liabilities exceeded our total assets by $48.3 million. We will need to raise additional capital to repay the entire principal balance of the Financing Agreement, dated as of April 24, 2019, as amended (the “Financing Agreement”), with Sixth Street Specialty Lending, Inc., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent” or “Sixth Street”), various lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), and certain of our subsidiaries party thereto from time to time as guarantors, and to provide additional liquidity to fund our losses until our operations become cash flow positive.

On July 29, 2022, we closed on a private placement offering with Rubric Capital Management LP (the “Preferred Stock Investor”), pursuant to which we issued and sold (i) 15,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Preferred Stock”) and (ii) 565,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), and we received aggregate gross proceeds of $15.0 million, before expenses. On September 30, 2022, we closed on an additional private placement offering with the Preferred Stock Investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold 7,000 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock for an aggregate offering price of $7.0 million. In addition, in lieu of issuing, selling and delivering 263,666 shares of Common Stock to the Preferred Stock Investor, we agreed to pay the Preferred Stock Investor, on the later of (i) the maturity date of the Preferred Stock of December 31, 2022, which shall be automatically extended, on a day-for-day basis, to the extent the maturity date under the Financing Agreement is extended, but by no more than a total of 60 days without the consent of the holders representing at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock Maturity Date”) or (ii) the date our obligations under the Financing Agreement are paid in full, a make-whole payment equal to 263,666 multiplied by the closing price of our Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded, on the day prior to the date of payment of the make-whole payment. See Note 10, Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficit for additional information regarding the financing with the Preferred Stock Investor.

On July 29, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 16 to the Financing Agreement pursuant to which the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to September 30, 2022, with the option to further extend the maturity date to October 31, 2022, and November 30, 2022, in each case if we receive not less than $7.0 million in cash proceeds from an equity issuance, which, if preferred equity, is on substantially the same terms as the Preferred Stock.  

In connection with the closing of the private placement offering with the Preferred Stock Investor on September 30, 2022, and in accordance with Amendment No. 16 to the Financing Agreement, on September 30, 2022, we issued warrants (“Lender Warrants”) to the Lenders to purchase an aggregate of 125,000 shares of Common Stock and the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to October 31, 2022. The Lender Warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 per share of Common Stock, subject to certain adjustment as provided therein, and an expiration date of September 30, 2032. The Lender Warrants may also be exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to the terms thereof.


On October 28, 2022, we closed on an additional private placement offering with the Preferred Stock Investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold 7,000 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock for an aggregate offering price of $7.0 million. In addition, in lieu of issuing, selling and delivering 263,666 shares of Common Stock to the Preferred Stock Investor, we agreed to pay the Preferred Stock Investor, on the later of (i) the Preferred Stock Maturity Date or (ii) the date our obligations under the Financing Agreement are paid in full, a make-whole payment equal to 263,666 multiplied by the closing price of our Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded, on the day prior to the date of payment of the make-whole payment.

In connection with the closing of the private placement offering with the Preferred Stock Investor on October 28, 2022, and in accordance with Amendment No. 16 to the Financing Agreement, on October 28, 2022, we issued Lender Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 125,000 shares of Common Stock, pursuant to a subscription agreement and the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to November 30, 2022. See Note 16, Subsequent Events for additional information regarding amendments to the Financing Agreement.

To address our capital needs, we are pursuing various equity and debt refinancing and other strategic alternatives, including the possibility that we will file for Chapter 11 protection if our equity and debt refinancing or other strategic alternatives fail prior to the maturity date of our Financing Agreement. The equity financing alternatives may include the private placement of equity, equity-linked, or other similar instruments or obligations with one or more investors, lenders, or other institutional counterparties or an underwritten public equity or equity-linked securities offering. Our ability to sell equity securities may be limited by market conditions, including the market price of our wholly owned subsidiaries,common stock, and our available authorized shares. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of such securities, the ownership interests of our existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these new securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing stockholders. If we are not successful in obtaining additional financing, we could be forced to discontinue or curtail our business operations, sell assets at unfavorable prices, or merge, consolidate, or combine with a company with greater financial resources in a transaction that might be unfavorable to us. Along with considering additional financings and other strategic alternatives, we have reviewed numerous potential scenarios in connection with steps that we may take to reduce our operating expenses.

If we are unsuccessful with future financings, if the successful commercialization of ANNOVERA, IMVEXXY, or BIJUVA is delayed, or if the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or issues in our supply chains related to our third-party contract manufacturers on our business is worse than we anticipate, our existing cash reserves would be insufficient to repay the entire principal balance of the Financing Agreement or satisfy our liquidity needs. The presence of these projected factors in conjunction with the uncertainty of the capital markets raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Common stock reverse stock split

On May 6, 2022, we completed a reverse stock split of our Common Stock. As a result, outstanding shares of our Common Stock were split at a ratio of 50-for-1(the “Reverse Stock Split”) with any fractional shares resulting from the Reserve Stock Split rounded up to the next whole share of Common Stock. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock was also correspondingly reduced from 600.0 million shares to 12.0 million shares to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split. Additionally, all rights to receive shares of Common Stock under outstanding warrants, options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”) were adjusted to give effect of the Reverse Stock Split. Furthermore, remaining shares of Common Stock available for future issuance under share-based payment award plans and our employee stock purchase plan were adjusted to give effect of the Reverse Stock Split. Pursuant to Section 78.209 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, the approval of our stockholders was not required for our Board of Directors (the “Board”) to effectuate the Reverse Stock Split.

In this 10-Q Report, all historical number of shares of Common Stock and per share data have been adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split. Additionally, since the Common Stock par value was unchanged, historical amounts for Common Stock and additional paid-in capital have been adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split.

A.

Basis of presentation

We prepared the consolidated financial statements included in this 10-Q Report following the requirements of the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain notes or other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements can be condensed or omitted.However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes included in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K ("2021 10-K Report").


Revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, and equities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be representative of those for the full year. In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements, which are of a normal and recurring nature, have been made for the interim periods reported. The information included in this 10-Q Report should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in our Annual2021 10-K Report. Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes may not add due to rounding, and all percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts.

B.

New accounting standards

Adoption of new accounting standards

New accounting standards or accounting standards updates were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or processes.

Accounting standards issued but not yet adopted

Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and Scope. In March 2020 and January 2021, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 were issued, respectively. These ASUs provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). These ASUs include practical expedients for contract modifications due to reference rate reform. Generally, contract modifications related to reference rate reform may be considered an event that does not require remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination at the modification date. These ASUs were effective upon issuance and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. Our debt agreements currently include the use of alternate rates when LIBOR is not available. We do not expect the change from LIBOR to an alternate rate will have a material impact to our financial statements and, to the extent we enter into modifications of agreements that are impacted by the LIBOR phase-out, we will apply such guidance to those contract modifications.

Other recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted by us are not expected, upon adoption, to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or processes.

C.

Estimates and assumptions

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity to U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We evaluate our estimated assumptions based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ, at times in material amounts, from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

D.

Significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies we use for quarterly financial reporting are disclosed in Note 1, Business, basis of presentation, new accounting standards and summary of significant accounting policies of the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2021 10-K Report, and in the section below.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash is comprised of escrowed funds deposited with a bank relating to the vitaCare Divestiture.

E.

Reclassification of prior year presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on Form 10-Kthe reported consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows. An adjustment has been made to the consolidated statements of operations for the yearthree and nine months ended December 31, 2016, as filedSeptember 30, 2021 to reclassify vitaCare service revenue.

We recorded no inventory charges for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and $0.6 million and $1.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

We rely on third parties to manufacture our finished products, and we have entered into long-term supply agreements for the manufacture of ANNOVERA, IMVEXXY, and BIJUVA. We do not have a long-term supply agreement for the manufacture of our prescription vitamins. Additionally, we do not have long-term contracts for the supply of all the active pharmaceutical ingredients (“API”) used in ANNOVERA and BIJUVA. If any suppliers of raw materials or API or any of our third-party contract manufacturers experience any difficulties, do not comply with the Securitiesterms of an agreement between us, or do not devote sufficient time, energy, and Exchange Commission,care to providing our manufacturing needs, we could experience additional interruptions in the supply of our products, which may have a material adverse impact on our revenue, results of operations and financial position.

Financing agreement

As of September 30, 2022, the stated interest rate under the Financing Agreement was 10.45%.In March 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 9 to the Financing Agreement (“Amendment No. 9”) pursuant to which, among other amendments, (i) the lenders


waived various Company breaches of the Financing Agreement, including breaches of the $60.0 million minimum cash covenant and the minimum net revenue covenants for the fourth quarter of 2021; (ii) the Company and the lenders agreed to a reduced minimum cash covenant and to the removal of the minimum net revenue covenant for the first quarter of 2022; (iii) the lenders waived the existing $60.0 million prepayment penalty under the Financing Agreement and the Company agreed to pay a paid in kind (“PIK”) amendment financing fee of $30.0 million, which fee was added to the principal amount of the loans under the Financing Agreement, $16.0 million of which fee was waivable in certain conditions; (iv) the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was amended to June 1, 2022; and (v) the Company agreed to pay to the Lenders as a prepayment of the loans under the Financing Agreement the first $120.0 million of net proceeds from the vitaCare Divestiture and all net proceeds of the vitaCare Divestiture in excess of $135.0 million. Amendment No. 9 was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt modification in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, in March 2022, we recorded an $8.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt, which represented the unamortized deferred financing fees, net of previously accrued prepayment fees. Additionally, the Amendment No. 9 PIK financing fee was recorded as deferred financing fees and was amortized over the remaining term of the Financing Agreement. In April 2022, we utilized $120.0 million of net proceeds from the vitaCare Divestiture to make a prepayment of the loans under the Financing Agreement under the terms of Amendment No. 9. Additionally, with the prepayment on the debt, $16.0 million of the PIK financing fee was waived in accordance with Amendment No. 9.

In May 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 10 to the Financing Agreement (“Amendment No. 10”) pursuant to which, among other amendments, (i) interest payments under the Financing Agreement were paused, such that interest on each term loan shall be payable in cash and in arrears (a) upon any prepayment of that term loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the SEC,extent accrued on the amount being prepaid and (b) on the maturity date, (ii) the minimum cash covenant was set at $10.0 million, (iii) the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was amended to July 13, 2022, (iv) the termination of the Company’s merger agreement with an affiliate of EW Healthcare Partners was added as an event of default, and (v) we agreed to a PIK financing fee of $1.8 million, which fee was added to the principal amount of the loans under the Financing Agreement. Amendment No. 10 was accounted for as a debt amendment in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, in May 2022, the Amendment No. 10 PIK financing fee was recorded as deferred financing fees and was amortized over the remaining term of the Financing Agreement.

Also in May 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 11 (“Amendment No. 11”) to the Financing Agreement. Amendment No. 11 contains amendments to the Financing Agreement that would have gone into effect upon the satisfaction of certain conditions on or before July 13, 2022 (the “Amendment Effective Date”), including (i) the consummation of the merger with an affiliate of EW Healthcare Partners (the “Merger”), (ii) the payment in cash of (a) all accrued and unpaid interest under the Financing Agreement through and including the Amendment Effective Date and (b) all fees, costs, expenses and taxes then payable pursuant to Section 2.7 or 10.2 of the Financing Agreement, and (iii) the delivery to the administrative agent of certain customary documents with respect to the pledge of 100% of the capital stock of the Company. Since the consummation of the Merger did not occur, Amendment No. 11 never became effective.

On July 13, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 12 to the Financing Agreement pursuant to which the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to July 24, 2022, and we agreed to pay the Lenders a PIK amendment fee in the amount of $1.2 million. On July 24, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 13 to the Financing Agreement pursuant to which the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to July 27, 2022, we agreed to pay the Lenders a payment of accrued and unpaid interest of $2.9 million, and we agreed to retain Jeffrey Varsalone from G2 Capital Advisors as our chief restructuring officer. On July 27, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 14 to the Financing Agreement pursuant to which the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to July 28, 2022. On July 28, 2022, we derivedentered into Amendment No. 15 to the Financing Agreement pursuant to which the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to July 29, 2022.

On July 29, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 16 to the Financing Agreement pursuant to which the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to September 30, 2022, with the option for us to further extend the maturity date to October 31, 2022, and November 30, 2022, in each case if we receive not less than $7.0 million in cash proceeds from an equity issuance, which, if preferred equity, is on substantially the same terms as the Preferred Stock. In lieu of a cash amendment fee, to induce the Lenders to enter into Amendment No. 16, on July 29, 2022, we issued Lender Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 185,000 shares of Common Stock, pursuant to a subscription agreement by and among the Company and the Lenders (the “July Lender Subscription Agreement”). The Lender Warrants to purchase 185,000 shares of our Common Stock issued pursuant to the July Lender Subscription Agreement have an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant, subject to certain adjustment as provided therein, and an expiration date of July 29, 2032, and may be exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to the terms thereof. These Lender Warrants were initially valued at $1.2 million based on the market price of our Common Stock on July 29, 2022 and entirely expensed as financing costs during three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

In connection with the closing of a private placement offering with the Preferred Stock Investor on September 30, 2022, and in accordance with Amendment No. 16 to the Financing Agreement, on September 30, 2022, we issued Lender Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 125,000 shares of Common Stock, pursuant to a subscription agreement by and among the Company and the Lenders (the “September Lender Subscription Agreement”), and the maturity date of the Financing Agreement was extended to October 31, 2022.

Subsequent to September 30, 2022, the maturity date was extended to November 30, 2022 in connection with an additional private placement, See Note 16, Subsequent Events. The Lender Warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of our Common Stock issued pursuant to


the September Lender Subscriptions Agreement have an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant, subject to certain adjustment as provided therein, and an expiration date of September 30, 2032, and may be exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to the terms thereof. See Note 10, Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficit for additional information regarding the equity financing with the Preferred Stock Investor. These Lender Warrants were initially valued at $0.8 million based on the market price of our Common Stock on September 30, 2022 and recorded as deferred financing fees, which will be amortized until the maturity of the Financing Agreement.

Based on the structure of the Lender Warrants, they are recorded as Lender Warrants derivative liability in the consolidated balance sheets and their carrying amounts are marked to market based on our Common Stock’s closing price at measurement date, which is considered Level 1 under the fair value hierarchy. As of September 30, 2022, the fair value of our Lender Warrants derivative liability was $2.1 million, and we recorded fair value loss on the Lender Warrants derivative liability of $0.1 million for three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Additionally, in September 2022, we and the Lenders agreed to PIK interest of $2.5 million related to the outstanding debt balance, which was entirely expensed as interest expense during three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Debt covenants

The Financing Agreement contains customary restrictions and covenants applicable to us that are customary for financings of this type. Among other requirements, we are required to maintain a minimum unrestricted cash balance. As defined in Amendment No. 10, the minimum unrestricted cash balance was set at $10.0 million. Our unrestricted cash balance was above the minimum unrestricted cash balance covenant at all times through November 14, 2022, the filing date of this 10-Q Report.

Commitments and contingencies

Minimum purchase commitments

We have manufacturing and supply agreements whereby we are required to purchase from Catalent, Inc. (“Catalent”) a minimum number of units of BIJUVA and IMVEXXY softgels during each respective annual contract year. The annual contract period for BIJUVA and IMVEXXY ends each April and July, respectively. If the minimum order quantities of BIJUVA or IMVEXXY are not met, we are required to pay a minimum commitment fee equal to 50% or 60%, respectively, of the difference between the total amount we would have paid if the minimum requirement had been fulfilled and the total amount of purchases of BIJUVA or IMVEXXY during each product’s respective contract year. Additionally, with another third-party manufacturer, we have a manufacturing and supply agreement, renewable annually, whereby we are required to purchase a minimum number of units of ANNOVERA during a contract year. The annual contract period for ANNOVERA ends each August. If the minimum order quantities of ANNOVERA are not met, we are required to pay a minimum commitment fee equal to the difference between the total amount we would have paid if the minimum requirement had been fulfilled and the total amount of purchases of ANNOVERA during the contract year.

Furthermore, in connection with the vitaCare Divestiture, we entered into a long-term services agreement with vitaCare to continue utilization of the vitaCare platform with respect to our products. Under the long-term services agreement, we are required to pay to vitaCare a minimum service fee for each respective annual contract year. The annual contract period for vitaCare services ends each April.

For each of the three annual contract years ending in 2022 for BIJUVA, IMVEXXY and ANNOVERA, we have met our minimum purchase number of units in all material respects. For annual contract years ending in 2023 and thereafter for BIJUVA, IMVEXXY, ANNOVERA, and vitaCare Services, we will continue to evaluate whether we will be able to meet each annual contract year’s respective minimum purchase commitment and will record a liability for estimated minimum commitment fees if we believe that we will not be able to reasonably meet the minimum purchase commitment. We believe that minimum commitment fees that we may pay in 2022 and 2023, if any, will not have a material impact to our financial position and operating results.


Legal proceedings

In February 2020, we received a Paragraph IV certification notice letter (the “IMVEXXY Notice Letter”) regarding an Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) submitted to the FDA by Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (“Teva”). The ANDA seeks approval from the FDA to commercially manufacture, use, or sell a generic version of the 4 mcg and 10 mcg doses of IMVEXXY. In the IMVEXXY Notice Letter, Teva alleges that TherapeuticsMD patents listed in the FDA’s Orange Book that claim compositions and methods of IMVEXXY (the “IMVEXXY Patents”) are invalid, unenforceable, and/or will not be infringed by Teva’s commercial manufacture, use, or sale of its proposed generic drug product. The IMVEXXY Patents identified in the IMVEXXY Notice Letter expire in 2032 or 2033. In April 2020, we filed a complaint for patent infringement against Teva in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey arising from Teva’s ANDA filing with the FDA. We are seeking, among other relief, an order that the effective date of any FDA approval of Teva’s ANDA would be a date no earlier than the expiration of the IMVEXXY Patents and equitable relief enjoining Teva from infringing the IMVEXXY Patents. Teva has filed its answer and counterclaim to the complaint, alleging that the IMVEXXY Patents are invalid and not infringed. In July 2021, following a proposal by Teva, the District Court entered an order temporarily staying all proceedings in the IMVEXXY litigation, which order was filed under seal. In September 2021, the District Court made available a public version of the order following the parties’ agreement to a consent motion to redact information Teva contended was confidential. The order provides that the statutory stay that prevents the FDA from granting final approval of the ANDA for 30 months from the date of the IMVEXXY Notice Letter will be extended for the number of days that the stay of the IMVEXXY litigation is in place. The length of the stay of the IMVEXXY litigation is dependent on further action by Teva. As of September 30, 2022, for the IMVEXXY Paragraph IV legal proceeding, we have incurred and recorded legal costs amounting to $2.3 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets since we believe that we will successfully prevail in this legal proceeding. Upon the successful conclusion of the legal proceeding, the related capitalized legal costs will be reclassified to patents, in license rights and other intangible assets, net, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet assheets, and such costs will be amortized over the remaining useful life of December 31, 2016. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been preparedthe patents. If we are unsuccessful in accordancewith accounting principles generally acceptedthis legal proceeding, then the related capitalized legal costs for this legal preceding and any unamortized IMVEXXY patent costs that were previously capitalized will be immediately expensed in the United Statesperiod in which we become aware of America, or GAAP, for interim financial informationan unsuccessful legal proceeding.

From time to time, we are involved in other litigations and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, since they are interim statements, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that are,proceedings in the opinionordinary course of our management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim resultsbusiness. We are currently not necessarily indicative of results for a full year orinvolved in any other interim period in the future.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued an Accounting Standards Update, or ASU,litigations and proceedings that clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as modifications. The new guidance will reduce diversity in practice and result in fewer changes to the terms of an award being accounted for as modifications. The new guidance will allow companies to make certain changes to awards without accounting for them as modifications. This guidance does not change the accounting for modifications. The guidance will be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date and is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period. We do not expect that adoption of this guidance willwe believe would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.


THERAPEUTICSMD, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). ASU 2016-15 is intended to reduce the diversity in practice regarding how certain transactions are classified within the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted with retrospective application. We do not expect that adoption of this guidance will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public and nonpublic entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted ASU 2016-09 effective January 1, 2017, electing to account for forfeitures when they occur. The impact from adoption of the provisions related to forfeiture rates was reflected in our consolidated financial statements on a modified retrospective basis, resulting in an adjustment of approximately $31,000 to retained earnings. The impact from adoption of the provisions related to excess tax benefits or deficiencies in the provision for income taxes rather than paid-in capital was adopted on a modified retrospective basis. Since we have a full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets, an amount equal to the cumulative adjustment made to retained earnings to recognize the previously unrecognized net operating losses from prior periods was made to the valuation allowance through retained earnings for the first quarter financial statements. Adoption of all other changes did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This guidance requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current accounting. The guidance also eliminates current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. The standard is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. We are in the process of analyzing the quantitative impact of this guidance on ourcondition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Employment agreements

On September 6, 2022, our Board appointed our current interim co-chief executive officers. The separation of our former chief executive officer (“CEO”) from the Company was a termination without “Good Cause,” as defined in his employment agreement. Accordingly, our former CEO received the separation benefits provided therein, and financial position. While we are continuingrecorded executive officer severance expenses of $4.8 million, of which $3.2 million was related to assess all potential impactsshare-based compensation recorded in connection with accelerated vesting of certain share-based payment awards for the former CEO. In connection with our former CEO’s separation from the Company, he ceased to serve as a member of our Board.

Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficit

Rubric Capital Management LP Subscription Agreements (Sale of Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Stock and Common Stock)

On July 29, 2022, we entered into a Subscription Agreement with the Preferred Stock Investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold, in a private placement offering, (i) 15,000 shares of the standard,Company’s newly issued Preferred Stock, for a purchase price per share of Preferred Stock equal to $822.21 and an aggregate purchase price of $12.3 million, and (ii) 565,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, for a purchase price per share of Common Stock equal to $4.72 and an aggregate purchase price of $2.7 million. This offering closed on July 29, 2022, and we currently believereceived aggregate gross proceeds of $15.0 million, before expenses.

On September 30, 2022, we entered into a Subscription Agreement with the impactPreferred Stock Investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold, in a private placement offering, 7,000 shares of this standard will be primarily relatedthe Company’s Preferred Stock for an aggregate offering price of $7.0 million. In addition, in lieu of issuing, selling and delivering 263,666 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the accounting forPreferred Stock Investor, we agreed to pay the Preferred Stock Investor, on the later of (i) the Preferred Stock Maturity Date or (ii) the date our operating lease.

In May 2014,obligations under the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The standard’s core principle is thatFinancing Agreement are paid in full, a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goodsmake-whole payment equal to 263,666 multiplied by the closing price of our Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration tosecurities market on which the company expectsCommon Stock is then traded, on the day prior to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgmentthe date of payment of the make-whole payment. This offering closed on September 30, 2022, and make more estimates than under previous guidance.

Based on the structure of the make-whole payment, it is recorded as make-whole payment derivative liability in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. In July 2015, the FASB approved the proposal to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 standard by one year. Early adoption is permitted after December 15, 2016,consolidated balance sheets and the standard is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein. In 2016, the FASB issued final amendmentscarrying amounts are marked to clarify the implementation guidance for principal versus agent considerations (ASU 2016-08), accounting for licenses of intellectual property and identifying performance obligations (ASU 2016-10), narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients (ASU 2016-12) and technical corrections and improvements to topic 606 (ASU 2016-20) in its new revenue standard. We have performed a preliminary review of the requirements of the new revenue standard and are monitoring the activity of the FASB and the transition resource group as it relates to specific interpretive guidance. We have reviewed customer contracts and applied the five-step model of the new standard to our contracts as well as compared the results to our current accounting practices. We are currently in the process of drafting disclosures required by the new standard. At this point of our analysis, we do not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effectmarket based on our financial statements but will potentially expand our disclosures related to contracts with customers.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturity of such instruments,Common Stock’s closing price at measurement date, which areis considered Level 1 assets under the fair value hierarchy. As of September 30, 2022, we had 30,000 and 22,000 shares of  Series A Preferred Stock authorized and outstanding, respectively, at the liquidation preference of $1,333 per share.


The Preferred Stock is not convertible into Common Stock and ranks senior to Common Stock, with respect to rights on the distribution of assets on any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, the Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference equal to $1,333 per share. The Preferred Stock will not have any voting rights other than as required by applicable law. The holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends equal to 25% of cash dividends actually paid, if any, on shares of Common Stock, paid pro rata on the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. If the Company undergoes certain change of control transactions, the holders of Preferred Stock may require the Company to redeem their shares of Preferred Stock at a redemption price per share of Preferred Stock, payable in cash, equal to the liquidation preference of $1,333 per share of Preferred Stock. We categorize our assetsalso have the option to redeem the shares of Preferred Stock on such terms if the Company undergoes certain change of control transactions. Each holder of the Preferred Stock has the right to cause the Company to redeem all, but not less than all, of their shares of the Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of certain events, including, without limitation, the Company’s failure to comply with any covenants under the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and liabilities that are valuedRights of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada or if the Company commences a bankruptcy proceeding, subject to certain conditions. Under such circumstances, the Company is required to redeem all, but not less than all, of the holder’s outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at fair valuea redemption price per share of Preferred Stock, payable in cash, equal to the liquidation preference of $1,333 per share. The Preferred Stock matures on December 31, 2022, subject to certain extension terms, as set forth in the Certificate of Designation, and the Company is required to redeem the shares on such date at a recurring basis intoredemption price per share of Preferred Stock, payable in cash, equal to the liquidation preference of $1,333 per share.Since the Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable on December 31, 2022, the Company has classified the Preferred Stock as a three-level fair value hierarchy as defined by Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 820, Fair Value Measurements. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Assets and liabilities recordedcurrent liability in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value are categorized based on a hierarchy of inputs, as follows:

Level 1unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and
Level 3unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

At September 30, 2017 and 2016, we had no assets or liabilities that were valued atsheets. In addition, the Company is accreting the Preferred Stock from its fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of indefinite-lived assets or long-lived assets is measured on a non-recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) in connection with our impairment test. There was no impairment of intangible assets or long-lived assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Trade accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. We review accounts receivable for uncollectible accounts and credit card charge-backs and provide an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and existing economic conditions. We consider trade accounts receivable past due for more than 90 days to be delinquent. We write off delinquent receivables against our allowance for doubtful accounts based on individual credit evaluations, the results of collection efforts, and specific circumstances of customers. We record recoveries of accounts previously written off when received as an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts. To the extent data we use to calculate these estimates does not accurately reflect bad debts, adjustments to these reserves may be required.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Our OTC and prescription prenatal vitamin products are generally variations of the same product with slight modifications in formulation and marketing. The primary difference between our OTC and prescription prenatal vitamin products is the source of payment. Purchasers of our OTC prenatal vitamin products pay for the product directly while purchasers of our prescription prenatal vitamin products pay for the product primarily via third-party payers. Both OTC and prescription prenatal vitamin products share the same marketing support team utilizing similar marketing techniques. As of January 1, 2017, we ceased manufacturing and distributing our OTC product lines, except for Iron 21/7, which have declined steadily over time resulting in immaterial sales. The revenue that is generated by us from major customers is all generated from sales of our prescription prenatal vitamin products which is disclosed in Note 13. There are no major customers for our OTC prenatal vitamin or other products.

Over-the-Counter Products

We generate OTC revenue from product sales primarily to retail consumers. We recognize revenue from product sales upon shipment, when the rights of ownership and risk of loss have passed to the consumer. We include outbound shipping and handling fees, if any, in revenues, net, and bill them upon shipment. We include shipping expenses in cost of goods sold. A majority of our OTC customers pay for our products with credit cards, and we usually receive the cash settlement in two to three banking days. Credit card sales minimize accounts receivable balances relative to OTC sales (Iron 21/7). We provide an unconditional 30-day money-back return policy under which we accept product returns from our retail and eCommerce OTC customers. We recognize revenue from OTC sales, net of estimated returns and sales discounts. As of January 1, 2017, we ceased manufacturing and distributing our OTC product lines, except for Iron 21/7, which have declined steadily over time resulting in immaterial sales.

Prescription Products

We sell our name brand and generic prescription products primarily through wholesale distributors and retail pharmacy distributors. We recognize revenue from prescription product sales, net of sales discounts, chargebacks, wholesaler fees, customer rebates and estimated returns.

Revenue related to prescription products sold through wholesale distributors is recognized when the prescription products are shipped to the distributors and the control of the products passes to each distributor. We accept returns of unsalable prescription products sold through wholesale distributors within a return period of six months prior to and up to 12 months following product expiration. Our prescription products currently have a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture.issuance to its redemption value using the effective interest rate method.

Share-Based Compensation

We measure theTherapeuticsMD, Inc. 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), we recorded share-based payment compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value$4.3 million and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements may include options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based awards, and share appreciation rights. We amortize such compensation amounts, if any, over the respective service periods of the award. We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, $7.3 million for the Black-Scholes Model, an acceptable model in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to value options. Option valuation models require the input of assumptions, including the expected life of the stock-based awards, the estimated stock price volatility, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected dividend yield. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the term of the instrument. Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the term of the award. Prior to January 1, 2017, the expected volatility of share options was estimated based on a historical volatility analysis of peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available that were similar to our company with respect to industry, stage of life cycle, market capitalization, and financial leverage. On January 1, 2017, we started using our own stock price in our volatility calculation along with two other peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available that were similar to our company. Our calculation of estimated volatility is based on historical stock prices over a period equal to the expected term of the awards. The average expected life of warrants is based on the contractual terms of the awards. The average expected life of options is based on the contractual terms of the stock option using the simplified method. We utilize a dividend yield of zero based on the fact that we have never paid cash dividends and have no current intention to pay cash dividends. Calculating share-based compensation expense requires the input of highly subjective judgment and assumptions, estimates of expected life of the share-based award, stock price volatility and risk-free interest rates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based awards represent our best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As a result, if factors change and we use different assumptions, our share-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to non-employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by ASC 505, Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees, or ASC 505. ASC 505 defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments. In general, the measurement date is when either (a) a performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The estimated expense is recognized each period based on the current fair value of the award. As a result, the amount of expense related to awards to non-employees can fluctuate significantly during the period from the date of the grant through the final measurement date. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in ASC 505.

We recognize the compensation expense for all share-based compensation granted based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with ASC 718. We generally recognize the compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the employee’s requisite service period.We adopted ASU 2016-09, effective January 1, 2017, electing to account for forfeitures when they occur. Prior to that,we estimated the forfeiture rate based on our historical experience of forfeitures.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development, or R&D, expenses include internal R&D activities, services of external contract research organizations, or CROs, costs of their clinical research sites, manufacturing, laboratory supplies, scale-up and validation costs, and other activities. Internal R&D activity expenses include salaries, benefits, and non-cash share-based compensation expenses. Advance payments to be expensed in future research and development activities are capitalized, and were $0 at September 30, 2017 and $228,933 at December 31, 2016, all of which were included in other current assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. CRO activity expenses include preclinical laboratory experiments and clinical trial studies. Other activity expenses include regulatory consulting and legal fees and costs. The activities undertaken by our regulatory consultants that were classified as R&D expenses include assisting, consulting with, and advising our in-house staff with respect to various U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, submission processes, clinical trial processes, and scientific writing matters, including preparing protocols and FDA submissions. Legal activities include professional research and advice regarding R&D, patents and regulatory matters. These consulting and legal expenses were direct costs associated with preparing, reviewing, and undertaking work for our clinical trials and investigative drugs. We charge internal R&D activities and other activity expenses to operations as incurred. We make payments to CROs based on agreed-upon terms, which may include payments in advance of a study starting date. We expense nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future R&D activities when the activity has been performed or when the goods have been received rather than when the payment is made. We review and accrue CRO expenses and clinical trial study expenses based on services performed and rely on estimates of those costs applicable to the completion stage of a study as provided by CROs. Estimated accrued CRO costs are subject to revisions as such studies progress to completion. We charge revisions expense in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known.

Segment Reporting

We are managed and operated as one business, which is focused on creating and commercializing products targeted exclusively for women. Our business operations are managed by a single management team that reports to the President of our company. We do not operate separate lines of business with respect to any of our products and we do not prepare discrete financial information with respect to separate products. All product sales are derived from sales in the United States. Accordingly, we view our business as one reportable operating segment.

NOTE 9 – NET LOSS PER SHARE

We calculate earnings per share, or EPS, in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires the computation and disclosure of two EPS amounts: basic and diluted. We compute basic EPS based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, or Common Stock, outstanding during the period. We compute diluted EPS based on the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding plus all potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Such potentially dilutive shares of Common Stock consist of options and warrants and were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive due to the net loss reported by us. The table below presents potentially dilutive securities that could affect our calculation of diluted net loss per share allocable to common stockholders for the periods presented.

The valuation methodology used to determine the fair value of our warrantsforfeitures and is the Black-Scholes Model. The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of a number of assumptions, including volatility of the stock price, the risk-free interest rate and the term of the warrant. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we granted warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of Common Stock to outside consultants at an exercise price of $6.83 per share. The fair value for these warrants was determined by using the Black-Scholes Model on the date of the grant using a term of five years; volatility of 63.24%; risk free rate of 1.47%; and dividend yield of 0%. The grant date fair value of the warrants was $3.67 per share. The warrants are vesting ratably over a 12-month period and have an expiration date of March 15, 2022.

Business concentrations

We sell our prescription prenatal vitamin products to wholesale distributors, specialty pharmacies, specialty distributors, and chain drug stores that generally sell products to retail pharmacies, hospitals, and other institutional customers. As a result of developments in the pharmaceutical industry that negatively affected independent pharmacies, including such pharmacies’ reliance on third-party payors, in 2016, we identified that payment periods for our retail pharmacy distributors were becoming longer than in prior years. As a result, during the third quarter of 2016, we centralized the distribution channel for both our retail pharmacy distributors and wholesale distributors, in order

Customers with product revenue equal to facilitate sales to a broader population of retail pharmacies and minimize business risk exposure to any one retail pharmacy. During the third quarter of 2016, we entered into new distribution agreements with our retail pharmacy distributors to effectuate this centralization which were effective September 1, 2016.

Overview

Business overview

We are a women’s health carehealthcare company focused onwith a mission of creating and commercializing innovative products targeted exclusivelyto support the lifespan of women from pregnancy prevention through menopause. At TherapeuticsMD, we combine entrepreneurial spirit, clinical expertise, and business leadership to develop and commercialize health solutions that enable new standards of care for women. Currently, we are focused on pursuing the regulatory approvals and pre-commercialization activities necessary for commercialization of ourOur solutions range from a patient-controlled, long-lasting contraceptive to advanced hormone therapy pharmaceutical products. Our drug candidates thatWe also have completed clinical trials are designed to alleviate the symptomsa portfolio of and reduce the health risks resulting from menopause-related hormone deficiencies, including hot flashes, osteoporosis and vaginal discomfort. We are developing these hormone therapy drug candidates, which contain estradiol and progesterone alone or in combination, with the aim of demonstrating clinical efficacy at lower doses, thereby enabling an enhanced side effect profile compared with competing products. With our SYMBODA™ technology, we are developing advanced hormone therapy pharmaceutical products to enable delivery of bio-identical hormones through a variety of dosage forms and administration routes. In addition, we manufacture and distribute branded and generic prescription prenatal vitamins under the vitaMedMD and BocaGreenMD brands that furthers our women’s healthcare focus.

vitaCare Divestiture

On April 14, 2022, we completed the divestiture of vitaCare Prescription Services, Inc. (“vitaCare”) with the sale of all of vitaCare’s issued and outstanding capital stock (the “vitaCare Divestiture”). We received net proceeds of $142.6 million, net of transaction costs of $7.2 million, and we recognized a gain on sale of business of $143.4 million. Included in the net proceeds amount was $11.3 million of customary holdbacks as provided in the stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), which is recorded as restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets. The restricted cash is held by an escrow agent and will be released to us in April 2023 upon a joint written direction from the buyer and us being delivered to the escrow agent to disburse to us an amount equal to the amount of escrow funds less any amounts subject to a claim notice in accordance with the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Any amounts subject to a claim notice in accordance with the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement shall be retained by the escrow agent until each such claim subject thereto is resolved. Additionally, we may receive up to an additional $7.0 million in earn-out consideration, contingent upon vitaCare’s financial performance through 2023 as determined in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. We will record the contingent consideration at the settlement amount when the consideration is realized or realizable.


The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and indemnities of the parties thereto. In addition, upon closing of the vitaCare Divestiture, (i) we entered into a long-term services agreement with vitaCare to continue utilization of the vitaCare platform with respect to our products, and (ii) we entered into a transition services agreement with vitaCare for us to provide certain transition services to vitaCare for up to 12 months following the closing.

COVID-19

With multiple variant strains of the SARS-Cov-2 virus and the COVID-19 disease that it causes (collectively, “COVID-19”) still circulating, we continue to be subject to risks and uncertainties in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent of the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business continues to be highly uncertain and difficult to predict. The ultimate global recovery from the pandemic will be dependent on, among other things, actions taken by governments and businesses to contain and combat the virus, including any variant strains, the speed and effectiveness of vaccine production and global distribution, as well as over-the-counter,how quickly, and to what extent, normal economic and operating conditions can resume on a sustainable basis globally.

Since the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been using substantial virtual options to ensure business continuity. We have also partnered with independent community pharmacies and multiple third-party online pharmacies and telemedicine providers that focus on contraception or OTC, iron supplements.menopause which provide patients real-time access to both diagnosis and treatment. We continue to support prescribers’ needs with samples and product materials through our sales force. If access is restricted, we have mailing options in place for these materials. We also have business continuity plans and infrastructure in place that allows for live virtual e-detailing of our products.


As part of our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we implemented measures to reduce marketing expenses and implemented cost saving measures, which included negotiating lower fees or suspending services from third-party vendors; implementing a company-wide hiring restriction; delaying or cancelling non-critical information technology projects; and eliminating non-essential travel, entertainment, meeting, and event expenses. In addition, we implemented a significant cost savings initiative that was designed to reduce our annual operating costs in 2022, and we reduced the operating costs of the vitaCare business with the completion of the vitaCare Divestiture on April 14, 2022. See above for additional information regarding the vitaCare Divestiture.

The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. As of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, the future extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to materially impact our financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations remains uncertain. We are continuing to assess the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations by monitoring the spread of COVID-19 and the various actions implemented to combat the pandemic throughout the world. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business as a result of any economic recession or depression that has occurred or may occur in the future.

While we currently believe that our COVID-19 contingency plan has the ability to mitigate many of the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, the severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic, the duration of “social distancing” orders, the ability of our sales force to access healthcare providers to promote our products, increases in unemployment, which could reduce access to commercial health insurance for our patients, thus limiting payer coverage for our products, and the impact of the pandemic on our global supply chain, all of which remain uncertain. Our future results of operations and liquidity could be materially adversely affected by delays in payments of outstanding receivable amounts beyond normal payment terms, supply chain disruptions, uncertain demand, and the impact of any initiatives or programs that we may undertake to address financial and operations challenges that we may face.

Going concern

We incurred a loss from operations of $65.8 million and interest expense and other financing costs of $30.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and as of that date, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $86.6 million and our total liabilities exceeded our total assets by $48.3 million. We will need to raise additional capital to repay the entire principal balance of the Financing Agreement, dated as of April 24, 2019, as amended (the “Financing Agreement”), with Sixth Street Specialty Lending, Inc., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent” or “Sixth Street”), various lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), and certain of our subsidiaries party thereto from time to time as guarantors, and to provide additional liquidity to fund our losses until our operations become cash flow positive.

On July 29, 2022, we closed on a private placement offering with Rubric Capital Management LP (the “Preferred Stock Investor”), pursuant to which we issued and sold (i) 15,000 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Preferred Stock”) and (ii) 565,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), and we received aggregate gross proceeds of $15.0 million, before expenses.

On September 30, 2022, we closed on an additional private placement offering with the Preferred Stock Investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold 7,000 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock for an aggregate offering price of $7.0 million. In addition, in lieu of issuing, selling and delivering 263,666 shares of Common Stock to the Preferred Stock Investor, we agreed to pay the Preferred Stock Investor, on the later of (i) the maturity date of the Preferred Stock of December 31, 2022, which shall be automatically extended, on a day-for-day basis, to the extent the maturity date under the Financing Agreement is extended, but by no more than a total of 60 days without the consent of the holders representing at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock Maturity Date”) or (ii) the date our obligations under the Financing Agreement are paid in full, a make-whole payment equal to 263,666 multiplied by the closing price of our Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which the Common Stock has been listedis then traded, on the Nasdaq Global Select Marketday prior to the date of The Nasdaqpayment of the make-whole payment.

Research and Development

We have obtained FDA acceptance of our Investigational New Drug, or IND, applications to conduct clinical trials for five of our proposed hormone therapy drug products: TX-001HR, our oral combination of progesterone and estradiol; TX-002HR, our oral progesterone alone; TX-003HR, our oral estradiol alone; and TX-004HR, our applicator-free vaginal estradiol softgel with estradiol alone and TX-006HR our combination estradiol and progesterone product in a topical cream form. Our IND applications for TX-002HR and TX-003HR are currently inactive.

In December 2016, we announced positive top-line results from the recently completed the REPLENISH Trial, our phase 3 clinical trial of TX-001HR, our bio-identical hormone therapy combination of 17ß- estradiol and progesterone in a single, oral softgel drug candidate, for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms, or VMS, due to menopause in post-menopausal women with an intact uterus. In December 2015, we completed the REJOICE Trial, our phase 3 clinical of TX-004HR, our applicator-free vaginal estradiol softgel drug candidate for the treatment of moderate to severe dyspareunia (vaginal pain during sexual intercourse), a symptom of vulvar and vaginal atrophy, or VVA, in post-menopausal women with vaginal linings that do not receive enough estrogen. In the fourth quarter of 2016 we submitted an IND application for TX-006HR, our combination estradiol and progesterone drug candidate in a topical cream form, and intend to commence phase 1 clinical trials of this drug candidate as early as 2018. In July 2014, we suspended enrollment in the SPRY Trial, our phase 3 clinical trial for TX-002HR, our oral progesterone alone drug candidate, and, in October 2014, we stopped the trial in order to update the phase 3 protocol based on discussions with the FDA. We have currently suspended further development of this drug candidate to prioritize our leading drug candidates. Our IND is currently in inactive status.We have no current plans to conduct clinical trials for TX-003HR, our oral estradiol alone drug candidate, and the IND application for this drug candidate is currently inactive.

TX-001HR

TX-001HR is our bio-identical hormone therapy combination of 17ß- estradiol and progesterone in a single, oral softgel drug candidate for the treatment of moderate to severe VMS due to menopause, including hot flashes, night sweats and sleep disturbances in post-menopausal women with an intact uterus. The hormone therapy drug candidate is bioidentical to – or having the same chemical and molecular structure as - the hormones that naturally occur in a woman’s body, namely estradiol and progesterone, and is being studied as a continuous-combined regimen, in which the combination of estrogen and progesterone are taken together in one product daily. If approved by the FDA, we believe this would represent the first time a combination product of estradiol and progesterone bioidentical to the estradiol and progesterone produced by the ovaries would be approved for use in a single combined product.


On September 5, 2013, we began enrollment in the REPLENISH Trial, a multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 clinical trial of TX-001HR in postmenopausal women with an intact uterus. The trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy of TX-001HR for the treatment of moderate to severe VMS due to menopause and the endometrial safety of TX-001HR. Patients were assigned to one of five arms, four active and one placebo, and received study medication for 12 months. The primary endpoint for the reduction of endometrial hyperplasia was an incidence of endometrial hyperplasia of less than 1% at 12 months, as determined by endometrial biopsy. The primary endpoint for the treatment of moderate to severe VMS was the mean change of frequency and severity of moderate to severe VMS at weeks four and 12 compared to placebo, as measured by the number and severity of hot flashes. Only subjects experiencing a minimum daily frequency of seven moderate to severe hot flashes at screening were included in the VMS analysis, while all subjects were included in the endometrial hyperplasia analysis. The secondary endpoints included reduction in sleep disturbances and improvement in quality of life measures, night sweats and vaginal dryness, measured at 12 weeks, six months and 12 months. The trial evaluated 1,835 patients between 40 and 65 years old at 111 sites. On December 5, 2016, we announced positive topline data for the REPLENISH Trial.

The REPLENISH Trial evaluated four doses of TX-001HR and placebo; the doses studied were:

17ß-estradiol 1 mg/progesterone 100 mg (n = 416)

17ß-estradiol 0.5 mg/progesterone 100 mg (n = 423)

17ß-estradiol 0.5 mg/progesterone 50 mg (n = 421)

17ß-estradiol 0.25 mg/progesterone 50 mg (n = 424)

Placebo (n = 151)

The REPLENISH Trial results demonstrated:

● TX-001HR estradiol 1 mg/progesterone 100 mg and TX-001HR estradiol 0.5 mg/progesterone 100 mg both achieved all fourmaturity date of the co-primary efficacy endpoints and the primary safety endpoint.

● TX-001HR estradiol 1 mg/progesterone 100 mg and TX-001HR estradiol 0.5 mg/progesterone 100 mg both demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction from baseline in both the frequency and severity of hot flashes comparedFinancing Agreement was extended to placebo.

● TX-001HR estradiol 0.5 mg/progesterone 50 mg and TX-001HR estradiol 0.25 mg/progesterone 50 mg were not statistically significant at all of the co-primary efficacy endpoints.October 31, 2022. The estradiol 0.25 mg/progesterone 50 mg dose was included in the clinical trial as a non-effective dose to meet the recommendation of the FDA guidance to identify the lowest effective dose.

● The incidence of consensus endometrial hyperplasia or malignancy was 0 percent across all four TX-001HR doses, meeting the recommendations established by the FDA’s draft guidance.

As outlined in the FDA guidance, the co-primary efficacy endpoints in the REPLENISH Trial were the change from baseline in the number and severity of hot flashes at weeks four and 12 as compared to placebo. The primary safety endpoint was the incidence of endometrial hyperplasia with up to 12 months of treatment. General safety was also evaluated.


The results of the REPLENISH Trial are summarized in the table below (p-values of < 0.05 meet FDA guidance and support evidence of efficacy):

ŦPer FDA, consensus hyperplasia refers to the concurrence of two of the three pathologists be accepted as the final diagnosis.

We had a pre-NDA meeting for TX-001HR with the FDA on August 28, 2017. We anticipate that we will submit an NDA for TX-001HR to the FDA in the fourth quarter of 2017. Assuming that the NDA is accepted 60 days thereafter and an FDA review period of ten months from the receipt date to the Prescription Drug User Fee Act, or PDUFA, date for a non-new molecular entity, the NDA for TX-001HR could be approved by the FDA as soon as the fourth quarter of 2018.

TX-002HR

TX-002HR is a natural progesterone formulation for the treatment of secondary amenorrhea without the potentially allergenic component of peanut oil. The hormone therapy drug candidate is bioidentical to – or having the same chemical and molecular structure as - the hormones that naturally occur in a woman’s body. We believe it will be similarly effective to traditional treatments, but may demonstrate efficacy at lower dosages. In January 2014, we began recruitment of patients in the SPRY Trial, a phase 3 clinical trial designed to measure the safety and effectiveness of TX-002HR in the treatment of secondary amenorrhea. During the first two quarters of 2014, the SPRY Trial encountered enrollment challenges because of Institutional Review Board approved clinical trial protocols and FDA inclusion and exclusion criteria. In July 2014, we suspended enrollment and in October 2014 we stopped the SPRY Trial in order to update the phase 3 protocol based on discussions with the FDA. Our IND is currently in inactive status. We are considering updating the phase 3 protocol to, among other things, target only those women with secondary amenorrhea due to polycystic ovarian syndrome and to amend the primary endpoint of the trial. We believe that the updated phase 3 protocol, if proposed by us and approved by the FDA, would allow us to mitigate the enrollment challenges in, and shorten the duration of, the SPRY Trial. However, there can be no assurance that the FDA will approve the updated phase 3 protocol if we propose it. We have currently suspended further development of this drug candidate to prioritize our leading drug candidates.


TX-004HR

TX-004HR is our applicator free vaginal estradiol softgel drug candidate for the treatment of VVA in post-menopausal women with vaginal linings that do not receive enough estrogen. We believe that our drug candidate will be at least as effective as the traditional treatments for VVA because of an early onset of action with less systemic exposure, inferring a greater probability of dose administration to the target tissue, and it willLender Warrants have an added advantageexercise price of being a simple, easier to use dosage form versus traditional VVA treatments. TX-004HR features our SYMBODATM technology. This allows for the production of cohesive, stable formulations and provides content uniformity and accuracy of dosing strengths for TX-004HR. We initiated the REJOICE Trial, a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 clinical trial during the third quarter of 2014 to assess the safety and efficacy of three doses – 25 mcg, 10 mcg and 4 mcg (compared to placebo) – of TX-004HR for the treatment of moderate to severe dyspareunia, or painful intercourse, as a symptom of VVA due to menopause.

On December 7, 2015, we announced positive top-line results from the REJOICE Trial. The pre-specified four co-primary efficacy endpoints were the changes from baseline to week 12 versus placebo in the percentage of vaginal superficial cells, percentage of vaginal parabasal cells, vaginal pH and severity of participants’ self-reported moderate to severe dyspareunia as the most bothersome symptom of VVA. The trial enrolled 764 postmenopausal women (40 to 75 years old) experiencing moderate to severe dyspareunia at approximately 89 sites across the United States and Canada. Trial participants were randomized to receive either TX-004HR at 25 mcg (n=190), 10 mcg (n=191), or 4 mcg (n=191) doses or placebo (n=192) for a total of 12 weeks, all administered once daily for two weeks and then twice weekly (approximately three to four days apart) for ten weeks. The 25 mcg dose of TX-004HR demonstrated highly statistically significant results at the p < 0.0001 level compared to placebo across all four co-primary endpoints. The 10 mcg dose of TX-004HR demonstrated highly statistically significant results at the p < 0.0001 level compared to placebo across all four co-primary endpoints. The 4 mcg dose of TX-004HR also demonstrated highly statistically significant results at the p < 0.0001 level compared to placebo for the endpoints of vaginal superficial cells, vaginal parabasal cells, and vaginal pH; the change from baseline compared to placebo in the severity of dyspareunia was statistically significant at the p = 0.0149 level. The FDA has previously indicated to us that in order to approve the drug based on a single trial, the trial would need to show statistical significance at the 0.01 level or lower for each endpoint, and that a trial that is merely statistically significant at a higher level may not provide sufficient evidence to support an NDA filing or approval of a drug candidate where the NDA relies on a single clinical trial. Statistical improvement over placebo was also observed for all three doses at the first assessment at week two and sustained through week 12. Vaginal dryness was a pre-specified key secondary endpoint. The 25 mcg and 10 mcg doses of TX-004HR demonstrated highly statistically significant results at the p < 0.0001 level compared to placebo for the endpoint of vaginal dryness. The 4 mcg dose of TX-004HR demonstrated statistically significant results at the p = 0.0014 level compared to placebo. The pharmacokinetic data for all three doses demonstrated negligible to very low systemic absorption of 17 beta estradiol, estrone and estrone conjugated, supporting the previous phase 1 trial data. TX-004HR was well tolerated, and there were no clinically significant differences compared to placebo-treated participants with respect to adverse events. There were no drug-related serious adverse events reported.

We submitted the NDA for TX-004HR with the FDA on July 7, 2016. The FDA determined that the NDA was sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review and accepted the NDA for filing with the PDUFA target action date for the completion of the FDA’s review of May 7, 2017. The NDA submission was supported by the complete TX-004HR clinical program, including positive results of the phase 3 REJOICE Trial. The NDA submission included all three doses of TX-004HR (4 mcg, 10 mcg and 25 mcg) that were evaluated in the REJOICE Trial. If approved, the 4 mcg formulation would represent a lower effective dose than the currently available VVA therapies approved by the FDA.

On May 5, 2017, we received a Complete Response Letter, or CRL, from the FDA regarding the NDA for TX-004HR. In the CRL, the only approvability concern raised by the FDA was the lack of long-term safety data for TX-004HR beyond the 12-weeks studied in the phase 3 REJOICE Trial. The CRL did not identify any issues related to the efficacy of TX-004HR and did not identify any approvability issues related to chemistry, manufacturing and controls. We believe that the NDA was approvable as filed and have been engaged in discussions with the FDA to address the concerns raised by the FDA in the CRL.


On June 14, 2017, we participated in a Type A Post-Action Meeting with the Division of Bone, Reproductive, and Urologic Products (DBRUP) of the FDA to discuss the CRL. The meeting enabled us to present new information that we believe could address concerns raised by the FDA in the CRL and positively affect the status of the NDA for TX-004HR. We have received the minutes of the meeting and, per the FDA’s request, on July 5, 2017 formally submitted the new information for consideration related to the NDA for TX-004HR.

On August 3, 2017, we received a formal General Advice Letter from the FDA stating that an initial review of this information has been completed and requesting that we submit the additional endometrial safety information to the NDA for TX-004HR on or before September 18, 2017. On September 14, 2017, we submitted the additional endometrial safety information that was requested by the FDA in the General Advice Letter to the NDA for TX-004HR. The submission includes a comprehensive, systematic review of the medical literature on the use of vaginal estrogen products and the risk of endometrial hyperplasia or cancer, including the safety data from the recently published Women’s Health Initiative Observational Study, or WHI Study, of vaginal estrogen use in postmenopausal women and information on the relevance of the first uterine pass effect for low-dose vaginal estrogen products. The WHI Study demonstrated no significant difference in the risk of invasive breast cancer, stroke, colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer and venous thromboembolism in vaginal estrogen users versus non-users. The WHI Study also shows that, among women with an intact uterus, there was a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease, hip fracture and all-cause mortality in vaginal estrogen users versus non-users. The WHI Study evaluated over 4,000 women who used vaginal estrogens for a median duration of two to three years.

On November 3, 2017, we participated in an in-person meeting with DBRUP.  At the meeting, DBRUP agreed to the resubmission of the NDA for the 4 mcg and 10 mcg doses of TX-004HR without the need for an additional pre-approval study.  We will commit to conduct a post-approval observational study.  We believe that we will be in a position to resubmit the NDA for TX-004HR within the coming weeks, with a potential approval of the NDA within two to six months after resubmission, depending on the classification of the review of the NDA.

As of September 30, 2017, we had 17 issued patents, which included 13 utility patents that relate to our combination progesterone and estradiol formulations, two utility patents that relate to TX-004HR, which establish an important intellectual property foundation for TX-004HR, one utility patent that relates to a pipeline transdermal patch technology, and one utility patent that relates to our OPERA® information technology platform.

Research and Development Expenses

A significant portion of our operating expenses to date have been incurred in research and development activities. Research and development expenses relate primarily to the discovery and development of our drug candidates. Our business model is dependent upon our company continuing to conduct a significant amount of research and development. Our research and development expenses consist primarily of expenses incurred under agreements with contract research organizations, or CROs, investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials and a substantial portion of our preclinical studies; employee-related expenses, which include salaries and benefits, and non-cash share-based compensation; the cost of developing our chemistry, manufacturing and controls capabilities, and acquiring clinical trial materials; and costs associated with other research activities and regulatory approvals. Other research and development costs listed below consist of costs incurred with respect to drug candidates that have not received IND application approval from the FDA.


We make payments to the CROs based on agreed upon terms that may include payments in advance of a study starting date. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities are expensed when the activity has been performed or when the goods have been received rather than when the payment is made. Advance payments to be expensed in future research and development activities are capitalized, and were $0 at September 30, 2017 and $228,933 at December 31, 2016 which were included in other current assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. CRO activity expenses include preclinical laboratory experiments and clinical trial studies.

The following table indicates our research and development expense by project/category for the periods indicated:

Research and development expenditures will continue to be incurred as we continue development of our drug candidates and advance the development of our proprietary pipeline of novel drug candidates. We expect to incur ongoing research and development costs as we develop our drug pipeline, continue stability testing and validation on our drug candidates, prepare regulatory submissions and work with regulatory authorities on existing submissions.

The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to factors that include, but are not limited to, the following: per patient trial costs; the number of patients that participate in the trials; the number of sites included in the trials; the length of time each patient is enrolled in the trial; the number of doses that patients receive; the drop-out or discontinuation rates of patients; the amount of time required to recruit patients for the trial; the duration of patient follow-up; and the efficacy and safety profile of the drug candidate. We base our expenses related to clinical trials on estimates that are based on our experience and estimates from CROs and other third parties. Research and development expenditures for the drug candidates will continue after the trial completes for on-going stability and laboratory testing, regulatory submission and response work.

Revenues and Cost of Goods Sold

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased approximately $1,119,000, or 20%, to approximately $4,417,000, compared with approximately $5,536,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. This decrease was attributable to a decrease in the average net revenue per unit of our products and a slight decrease in the number of units sold. Cost of goods sold decreased approximately $536,000, or 43%, to approximately $701,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared with approximately $1,237,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Our gross margin was approximately 84% and 78% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in gross margin percentage was primarily attributable to the centralization of the distribution channel for both our retail pharmacy distributors and wholesale distributors, which, among other things, lowered the cost to package, prepare and deliver our products to customers.

Research and development costs for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by approximately $8,227,000, or 56%, to approximately $6,437,000, compared with $14,664,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Research and development costs include costs related to clinical trials as well as salaries, wages, non-cash compensation and benefits of personnel involved in research and development activities. Research and development costs decreased as a direct result of the completion of the REPLENISH Trial for TX-001HR, our combination estradiol and progesterone drug candidate. Research and developments costs during the three months ended September 30, 2017 included the following research and development projects.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and the period from February 2013 (project inception) through September 30, 2017, we have incurred approximately $3,066,000 and $107,987,000, respectively, in research and development costs with respect to TX-001HR, our combination estradiol and progesterone drug candidate.


During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and the period April 2013 (project inception) through September 30, 2017, we have incurred approximately $0 and $2,525,000, respectively, in research and development costs with respect to TX-002HR, our progesterone only drug candidate.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and the period from August 2014 (project inception) through September 30, 2017, we have incurred approximately $1,580,000 and $39,098,000, respectively, in research and development costs with respect to TX-004HR, our applicator-free vaginal estradiol softgel drug candidate.

For a discussion of the nature of efforts and steps necessary to complete these projects, see “Item 1. Business — Pharmaceutical Regulation” in our Annual Report and “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview – Research and Development” above. For a discussion of the risks and uncertainties associated with completing development of our products, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business” in our Annual Report. For a discussion of the extent and nature of additional resources that we may need to obtain if our current liquidity is not expected to be sufficient to complete these projects, see “— Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. For a discussion as to whether a future milestone such as completion of a development phase, date of filing an NDA with a regulatory agency or approval from a regulatory agency can be reliably determined, see “Item 1. Business — Our Hormone Therapy Drug Candidates,” and “Item 1. Business — Pharmaceutical Regulation” in our Annual Report. Future milestones, including NDA submission dates and potential approval dates, are not easily determinable as such milestones are dependent on various factors related to our clinical trials, scale-up and manufacturing activities.

Human resource costs, including salaries, benefits and taxes, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by approximately $1,000, or less than 1%, to approximately $5,966,000, compared with approximately $5,965,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of a an increase of approximately $1,042,000 in personnel costs in sales, marketing and regulatory areas to support commercialization of our hormone therapy drug candidates partially offset by a decrease of approximately $1,041,000 in non-cash compensation expense included in this category related to employee stock option amortization.

Sales and marketing costs for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by approximately $1,038,000, or 25%, to approximately $3,163,000, compared with approximately $4,201,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result reduced spending associated with sales and marketing efforts to support commercialization of our hormone therapy drug candidates, partially offset by higher costs related to outsourced sales personnel and their related expenses together with an increase in employee incentives.

Professional fees for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by approximately $179,000, or 12%, to approximately $1,271,000, compared with approximately $1,450,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of decreased consulting expenses partially offset by a slight increase in legal expenses.

Other operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by approximately $1,436,000, or 46%, to approximately $1,711,000, compared with approximately $3,147,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, as a result of decrease in bad debt expense, partially offset by increased rent, information technology and other office expenses.

Operating Loss

As a result of the foregoing, our operating loss decreased approximately $10,296,000, or 41%, to approximately $14,832,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared with approximately $25,128,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of decreased research and development costs and reduced spending associated with sales and marketing efforts to support commercialization of our hormone therapy drug candidates, partially offset by higher costs related to outsourced sales personnel and their related expenses, professional fees, and other operating expenses, as well a decrease in revenue.


As a result of the continued development of our hormone therapy drug candidates, we anticipate that we will continue to have operating losses for the near future until our hormone therapy drug candidates are approved by the FDA and brought to market, although there is no assurance that we will attain such approvals or that any marketing of our hormone therapy drug candidates, if approved, will be successful.

Other Income

Other non-operating income increased by approximately $54,000, or 48%, to approximately $167,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared with approximately $113,000 for the comparable period in 2016, primarily as a result of increased interest income.

Net Loss

As a result of the net effects of the foregoing, net loss decreased approximately $10,350,000, or 41%, to approximately $14,665,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared with approximately $25,015,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Research and development costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by approximately $20,724,000, or 48%, to approximately $22,878,000, compared with $43,602,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Research and development costs include costs related to clinical trials as well as salaries, wages, non-cash compensation and benefits of personnel involved in research and development activities. Research and development costs decreased as a direct result of the completion of the REPLENISH Trial for TX-001HR, our combination estradiol and progesterone drug candidate. Research and developments costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 included the following research and development projects.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and the period from February 2013 (project inception) through September 30, 2017, we have incurred approximately $11,971,000 and $107,987,000, respectively, in research and development costs with respect to TX-001HR, our combination estradiol and progesterone drug candidate.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and the period April 2013 (project inception) through September 30, 2017, we have incurred approximately $0 and $2,525,000, respectively, in research and development costs with respect to TX-002HR, our progesterone only drug candidate.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and the period from August 2014 (project inception) through September 30, 2017, we have incurred approximately $6,292,000 and $39,098,000, respectively, in research and development costs with respect to TX-004HR, our applicator-free vaginal estradiol softgel drug candidate.


For a discussion of the nature of efforts and steps necessary to complete these projects, see “Item 1. Business — Pharmaceutical Regulation” in our Annual Report and “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview – Research and Development” above. For a discussion of the risks and uncertainties associated with completing development of our products, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business” in our Annual Report. For a discussion of the extent and nature of additional resources that we may need to obtain if our current liquidity is not expected to be sufficient to complete these projects, see “— Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. For a discussion as to whether a future milestone such as completion of a development phase, date of filing an NDA with a regulatory agency or approval from a regulatory agency can be reliably determined, see “Item 1. Business — Our Hormone Therapy Drug Candidates,” and “Item 1. Business — Pharmaceutical Regulation” in our Annual Report. Future milestones, including NDA submission dates and potential approval dates, are not easily determinable as such milestones are dependent on various factors related to our clinical trials, scale-up and manufacturing activities.

Human resource costs, including salaries, benefits and taxes, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by approximately $106,000, or less than 1%, to approximately $17,415,000, compared with approximately $17,309,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of an increase of approximately $4,636,000 in personnel costs in sales, marketing and regulatory areas to support commercialization of our hormone therapy drug candidates partially offset by a decrease of approximately $4,530,000 in non-cash compensation expense included in this category related to employee stock option amortization.

Sales and marketing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by approximately $8,794,000, or 113%, to approximately $16,590,000, compared with approximately $7,796,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of increased expenses in the first half of 2017 associated with sales and marketing efforts to support commercialization of our hormone therapy drug candidates, which were curtailed in the third quarter of 2017 due to the status of the NDA for TX-004HR, higher costs related to outsourced sales personnel and their related expenses which started in the fourth quarter of 2016, together with an increase in employee incentives.

Professional fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by approximately $447,000, or 12%, to approximately $4,062,000, compared with approximately $3,615,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of increased legal and other professional expenses, partially offset by a decrease in consulting expenses.

Other operating expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by approximately $770,000, or 12%, to approximately $5,614,000, compared with approximately $6,384,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as a result of a decrease in bad debt expense as well as decreased investor relations expenses, partially offset by increased rent, information technology and other office expenses.

Operating Loss

As a result of the foregoing, our operating loss decreased approximately $11,365,000, or 17%, to approximately $55,948,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared with approximately $67,313,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of decreased research and development costs and other operating expenses, partially offset by increased personnel costs, sales and marketing expenses to support commercialization of our hormone therapy drug candidates, higher costs related to outsourced sales personnel and their related expenses and professional fees as well a decrease in revenue.

As a result of the continued development of our hormone therapy drug candidates, we anticipate that we will continue to have operating losses for the near future until our hormone therapy drug candidates are approved by the FDA and brought to market, although there is no assurance that we will attain such approvals or that any marketing of our hormone therapy drug candidates, if approved, will be successful.


Other Income

Other non-operating income increased by approximately $176,000, or 64%, to approximately $450,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared with approximately $274,000 for the comparable period in 2016, primarily as a result of increased interest income.

Net Loss

As a result of the net effects of the foregoing, net loss decreased approximately $11,541,000, or 17%, to approximately $55,498,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared with approximately $67,039,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Net loss per sharedelivering 263,666 shares of Common Stock basic and diluted, was ($0.27) forto the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared with ($0.34) forPreferred Stock Investor, we agreed to pay the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have fundedPreferred Stock Investor, on the later of (i) the Preferred Stock Maturity Date or (ii) the date our operations primarily through public offeringsobligations under the Financing Agreement are paid in full, a make-whole payment equal to 263,666 multiplied by the closing price of our Common Stock and private placements of equity and debt securities. Since 2014, we received approximately $337,582,000 in net proceeds fromon the issuance of shares of Common Stock. As of September 30, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling approximately $148,293,000, however, changing circumstances may cause us to consume funds significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to spend more money than currently expected because of circumstances beyond our control.

On September 25, 2017, we entered into an underwriting agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC relating to an underwritten public offering of 12,400,000 shares of ourprincipal securities exchange or securities market on which the Common Stockat a price is then traded, on the day prior to the date of $5.55 per share. The net proceedspayment of the make-whole payment.

In connection with the closing of the private placement offering with the Preferred Stock Investor on October 28, 2022, and in accordance with Amendment No. 16 to us from the offering were approximately $68,573,000, after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us. The offering closedFinancing Agreement, on SeptemberOctober 28, 2017 and2022, we issued 12,400,000 shares of our Common Stock. We intend to use a majority of the net proceeds from this offering to fund pre-commercialization and commercialization activities for our TX-004HR and TX-001HR drug candidates. We currently intend to fund the remainder of our pre-commercialization and commercialization expenses for our TX-004HR and TX-001HR drug candidates through debt financing and are currently engaged in discussions to secure debt financing commitments during the fourth quarter of 2017. If we are successful in obtaining these commitments, we currently anticipate we would begin to draw on them following approval of either TX-004HR or TX-001HR.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, certain individuals exercised warrantsLender Warrants to purchase 2,476,666an aggregate of 125,000 shares of Common Stock, for $3,798,999 in cash. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, certain individuals exercised stock options to purchase 102,546 shares of Common Stock for $212,615 in cash.

As a result of developments in the pharmaceutical industry that negatively affected independent pharmacies, including such pharmacies’ reliance on third party payors, in 2016, we identified that payment periods for our retail pharmacy distributors were becoming longer than in prior years. As a result, during the third quarter of 2016, we centralized the distribution channel for both our retail pharmacy distributors and wholesale distributors, in order to facilitate salespursuant to a broader population of retail pharmaciessubscription agreement and minimize business risk exposure to any one retail pharmacy. During the third quarter of 2016, we entered into new distribution agreements with our retail pharmacy distributors to effectuate this centralization which were effective September 1, 2016.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, our days sales outstanding, or DSO, was 91 days compared to 92 days for the year ended December 31, 2016. We anticipate that our DSO will fluctuate in the future based upon a variety of factors, including longer payment terms associated with the centralizationmaturity date of the distribution channelFinancing Agreement was extended to November 30, 2022. See Note 16, Subsequent Events for both our retail pharmacy distributors and wholesale distributors in September 2016, as comparedadditional information regarding amendments to the terms previously providedFinancing Agreement.

To address our capital needs, we are pursuing various equity and debt refinancing and other strategic alternatives, including the possibility that we will file for Chapter 11 protection if our equity and debt refinancing or other strategic alternatives fail prior to the maturity date of our retail pharmacy distributors, changes inFinancing Agreement. The equity financing alternatives may include the healthcare industry and specific terms thatprivate placement of equity, equity-linked, or other similar instruments or obligations with one or more investors, lenders, or other institutional counterparties or an underwritten public equity or equity-linked securities offering. Our ability to sell equity securities may be extended in connection withlimited by market conditions, including the launchmarket price of our hormone therapy drug candidates, if approved.


We believe that our existing cash will allow us to fund our operating plan through at least the next 12 months from the date of this quarterly report. However, if the commercialization of our hormone therapy drug candidates is delayed, our existing cash may be insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements until we are able to commercialize our hormone therapy drug candidates.  Ifcommon stock, and our available cash is insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may curtail our sales, marketing and other pre-commercialization efforts and we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, or declaring dividends.authorized shares. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debtsuch securities, the ownership interests of our existing shareholdersstockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these new securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing shareholders.stockholders. If we raiseare not successful in obtaining additional funds through collaborations,financing, we could be forced to discontinue or curtail our business operations, sell assets at unfavorable prices, or merge, consolidate, or combine with a company with greater financial resources in a transaction that might be unfavorable to us. Along with considering additional financings and other strategic alliances,alternatives, we have reviewed numerous potential scenarios in connection with steps that we may take to reduce our operating expenses.

If we are unsuccessful with future financings, if the successful commercialization of ANNOVERA, IMVEXXY, or BIJUVA is delayed, or if the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or issues in our supply chains related to our third-party contract manufacturers on our business is worse than we anticipate, our existing cash reserves would be insufficient to repay the entire principal balance of the Financing Agreement or satisfy our liquidity needs. The presence of these projected factors in conjunction with the uncertainty of the capital markets raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Product portfolio

Our portfolio of products focused on women’s health allows us to efficiently leverage our sales and marketing plans to grow our pharmaceutical products. We are focused on activities necessary for the continued commercialization of IMVEXXY, commercially launched in the third quarter of 2018; BIJUVA, commercially launched in the third quarter of 2019; and ANNOVERA, which we started selling in the third quarter of 2019 and commercially launched in March 2020, which was subsequently paused as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and relaunched in July 2020. We continue to manufacture and distribute our prescription prenatal vitamin product lines, consisting of branded prenatal vitamins under vitaMedMD and authorized generic formulations of some of our prescription prenatal vitamin products under BocaGreenMD.

ANNOVERA (segesterone acetate (“SA”) and ethinyl estradiol (“EE”) vaginal system)

This pharmaceutical product is a one-year, ring-shaped, contraceptive vaginal system (“CVS”) and the first and only patient-controlled, procedure-free, reversible prescription contraceptive that can prevent pregnancy for up to a total of 13 cycles (one year). ANNOVERA is commercially sold by us in the U.S. pursuant to the terms of the Population Council License Agreement. As part of the approval of ANNOVERA, the FDA has required a post-approval observational study be performed to measure the risk of venous thromboembolism. We have agreed to perform and pay the costs and expenses associated with this post-approval study, provided that if the costs and expenses associated with such post-approval study exceed $20.0 million, half of such excess will offset against royalties or other payments owed by us under the Population Council License Agreement. Given the observational nature of the study, we do not believe that the costs of the study will be material on an annual basis.

In August 2021, we filed a supplemental New Drug Application (“NDA”) with the FDA to modify the testing specifications for ANNOVERA to allow increased consistency of supply of ANNOVERA. In May 2022, the FDA approved the supplemental NDA for ANNOVERA. With the FDA approval of the supplemental NDA, we expect our third-party contract manufacturer will be able to supply us with sufficient ANNOVERA to better meet customer demand.

IMVEXXY (estradiol vaginal inserts), 4-μg and 10-μg

This pharmaceutical product is for the treatment of moderate-to-severe dyspareunia (vaginal pain associated with sexual activity), a symptom of vulvar and vaginal atrophy due to menopause. As part of the FDA’s approval of IMVEXXY, we have committed to conduct a post-approval observational study to evaluate the risk of endometrial cancer in post-menopausal women with a uterus who use a low-dose vaginal estrogen unopposed by a progestogen. The FDA has also asked two sponsors of other vaginal estrogen products to participate in an observational study. In connection with the observational study, we are required to provide various reports to the FDA per a requested timeline. We do not believe that the costs will be significant on an annual basis.

We market and sell IMVEXXY in the U.S. and have entered into licensing arrangementsagreements with third parties to market and sell IMVEXXY outside of the U.S. We have entered into a license and supply agreement (the “Knight License Agreement”), with Knight Therapeutics, Inc. (“Knight”) pursuant to which, we maygranted Knight an exclusive license to commercialize IMVEXXY in Canada and Israel. We have entered into a licensing and supply agreement (the “Theramex License Agreement”) with Theramex HQ UK Limited (“Theramex”) pursuant to relinquish valuable rightswhich we granted Theramex an exclusive license to commercialize IMVEXXY for human use outside of the U.S., except for Canada and Israel. As of September 30, 2022, no IMVEXXY sales have been made through these licensing agreements.

BIJUVA (estradiol and progesterone) capsules, 1 mg/100 mg

This pharmaceutical product is the first and only FDA approved bioidentical hormone therapy combination of estradiol and progesterone in a single, oral capsule for the treatment of moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms (commonly known as hot flashes or flushes) due to menopause in women with a uterus. We market and sell BIJUVA in the U.S. and have entered into licensing agreements with third parties to market and sell BIJUVA outside of the U.S. We have entered into the Knight License Agreement with Knight pursuant to which we granted Knight an exclusive license to commercialize BIJUVA in Canada and Israel. We have entered into the Theramex License Agreement with Theramex pursuant to which we granted Theramex an exclusive license to commercialize BIJUVA for human use outside of the U.S., except for Canada and Israel. We recorded BIJUVA sales through the Theramex License Agreement of $0.4 million and $1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and $0.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, no BIJUVA sales were made through the Knight License Agreement.


Prenatal vitamin products

We manufacture and distribute our prescription prenatal vitamin product lines under our vitaMedMD brand name and authorized generic formulations of some of our prescription prenatal vitamin products under our BocaGreenMD Prena1 name. We will continue to support the vitaMedMD and BocaGreenMD products as they are important products to our technologies, futurecore customers and help provide us with continued access to sell our women’s health portfolio.

Our sales of ANNOVERA were $10.4 million for the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 11.8%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. This decrease was primarily due to a 13.4% decrease in the average sale price due to fluctuations in constrains of variable consideration (product returns, chargebacks, rebates, coupons, discounts and wholesaler fees) on revenue, partially offset by a 1.9% increase in sales volume.

Our sales of IMVEXXY were $6.9 million for the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 13.3%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. This decrease was primarily due to a 24.0% decrease in the average sale price due to fluctuations in revenue constraints, partially offset by a 14.0% increase in sales volume.

Our sales of BIJUVA were $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 19.3%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. Included in our BIJUVA sales for the third quarter of 2022 was $0.4 million of sales made through the Theramex License Agreement. Without the sales made through the Theramex License Agreement, our sales of BIJUVA were $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 11.2%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. This decreasewas primarily attributableto a 16.6% decrease in the average sale price due to fluctuations in revenue constraints, partially offset by a 6.5% increase in sales volume.

Our prescription vitamin sales were $0.9 million for the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 33.2%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. Thisdecreasewas primarily dueto a 30.8% decrease in sales volume and 3.4% decrease in the average saleprice due to fluctuations in revenue constraints.

On a consolidated basis, our total product sales were $20.9 million for the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $3.5 million, or 14.5%, compared to the third quarter of 2021.

We recorded less than $0.1 million of service revenue related to pharmacy services provided by our vitaCare business to pharmaceutical companies for the third quarter of 2021 and no service revenue related to pharmacy services for the third quarter of 2022 due to our divesture of our vitaCare business earlier in 2022. We recorded no license revenue for the third quarter of 2022, and $0.9 million for the third quarter of 2021. This change in license revenue was entirely due to the timing of achieving previously established milestone payment targets.


Gross profit. Our gross profit for the third quarter of 2022 was $17.1 million, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 14.9%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. The following table sets forth our gross profit during these periods (in thousands):

The decrease in our gross profit was a result a decrease of 14.5% in product revenue for the third quarter of 2022, partially offset by an increase in our product gross margin of 3.5% to 81.9% for the third quarter of 2022. The increase in product gross margins was mainly due to changes in product sales mix during the third quarter of 2022.

Operating expenses. Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2022 were $37.9 million, a decrease of $22.2 million, or 36.9%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. The decrease in operating expenses reflects our efforts to reduce operating expenses, including the reduction of vitaCare operating expenses in connection with its divestiture in April 2022.

Our selling and marketing costs were $19.1 million for the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $10.9 million, or 36.2%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. This decrease was primarily due to $11.3 million in lower advertising and marketing expenses, $1.9 million in lower compensation and employee benefit costs, and $0.2 million in lower sales conference and travel expenses. These decreases were partially offset by $1.9 million in vitaCare service fee for the third quarter of 2022, $0.5 million in higher samples expense and $0.2 million in higher software development expenses.

Our general and administrative costs were $17.6 million for the third quarter of 2022, which included cash and accelerated equity severances amounting to $4.8 million for our former chief executive officer. Our general and administrative costs decreased $10.8 million, or 38.0%, compared to the third quarter of 2021, which included cash and accelerated equity severances amounting to $7.3 million for certain of our former senior executives.The overall decrease in general and administrative costs was primarily related to $9.2 million in lower compensation and employee benefit costs, $0.8 million in lower information technology expenditures, and $0.5 in lower corporate rent.

Our R&D costs were $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 30.7%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. This decrease was primarily attributable to $0.3 million in lower compensation and employee benefit costs and $0.2 million in lower lab research and sample testing costs. As we refocus our resources towards the continued commercialization of our pharmaceutical products, our R&D expenditures have declined over the last few years. We continue to deploy limited resources in the development of new products, to perform stability testing and validation on our pharmaceutical products, to develop and validate secondary manufacturers, to prepare regulatory submissions, and work with regulatory authorities on existing submissions.

Loss from operations. For the third quarter of 2022, we had a loss from operations of $20.7 million, a decrease of $19.2 million, or 48.0%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. This decrease was attributable to $22.2 million in lower operating expenses, partially offset by a $3.0 million in lower gross profit. We anticipate that we will continue to have operating losses for the near future until we are able to successfully commercialize ANNOVERA, IMVEXXY and BIJUVA, although there is no assurance that our efforts will be successful.

Other income/expense, net. For the third quarter of 2022, we had non-operating expense of $8.5 million, an increase of $1.0 million, or 13.1%, compared to the third quarter of 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to $3.5 million of expense for accretion of Series A Preferred Stock recorded for the third quarter of 2022 and $1.1 million in higher amortization of deferred financing costs compared to the third quarter of 2021. These increases were partially offset by $3.1 million in lower interest expense related to lower average debt balance and $0.7 million in lower interest prepayment fee due to elimination of prepayment fees with Amendment No. 9 to the Financing Agreement.


Provision for income taxes. For the third quarter of 2022, we recorded a reduction to provision for income taxes of $0.3 million compared to no provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 2022.

Net loss. For the third quarter of 2022, we had net loss of $29.0 million, or $3.13 per basic and diluted common share, compared to $47.4 million, or $5.62 per basic and diluted common share for the third quarter of 2021. The historical per share data have been adjusted to give effect of the May 2022 reverse stock split.

Nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared with nine months ended September 30, 2021

Revenue. Our total revenue for the first nine months of 2022 was $68.8 million, an increase of $0.5 million, or 0.8%, compared to the first nine months of 2021.

Our sales of ANNOVERA were $37.2 million for the first nine months of 2022, an increase of $7.1 million, or 23.5%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. This increase was primarily due to a 32.1% increase in sales volume, partially offset by a 6.5% decrease in the average sale price due to fluctuations in revenue constraints.

Our sales of IMVEXXY were $20.6 million for the first nine months of 2022, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 17.2%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. This decrease was primarily attributable to a 17.0% decrease in the average sales price due to fluctuations in revenue constraints and a 0.2% decrease in sales volume.

Our sales of BIJUVA were $7.9 million for the first nine months of 2022, which was flat when compared to the first nine months of 2021. Included in our BIJUVA sales for the first nine months of 2022 and 2021 was $1.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of sales made through the Theramex License Agreement. Without the sales made through the Theramex License Agreement, our sales of BIJUVA were $6.5 million for the first nine months of 2022, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 10.0%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. This decreasewas primarily attributableto a 9.3% decrease in the average sale price due to fluctuations in revenue constraints and a 0.8% decrease in sales volume.

Our prescription vitamin sales were $2.7 million for the first nine months of 2022, a decrease of $1.5 million, or 35.8%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. Thisdecreasewas primarily dueto a 28.1% decrease in sales volume and a 10.8% decrease in the average saleprice due to fluctuations in revenue constraints.

On a consolidated basis, our total product sales were $68.3 million for the first nine months of 2022, an increase of $1.3 million, or 1.9%, compared to the first nine months of 2021.

We recorded service revenue related to pharmacy services provided by our vitaCare business to pharmaceutical companies of $0.5 million for the first nine months of 2022, an increase of $0.4 million, compared to the first nine months of 2021. We recorded no license revenue for the first nine months of 2022 and our license revenue was $1.2 million for the first nine months of 2021. This change in license revenue was entirely due to the timing of achieving previously established milestone payment targets.

Gross profit. Our gross profit for the first nine months of 2022 was $55.4 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 2.3%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. The following table sets forth our gross profit during these periods (in thousands):

The increase in our gross profit was a result an increase of 1.4% in our product gross margin to 80.4% and an increase of 1.9% in product revenue for the first nine months of 2022. The increase in product gross margins was mainly due to changes in product sales mix during the first nine months of 2022.

Operating expenses. Total operating expenses for the first nine months of 2022 were $121.2 million, a decrease of $37.3 million, or 23.5%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. The decrease in operating expenses reflects our efforts to reduce operating expenses, including the reduction of vitaCare operating expenses in connection with its divestiture in April 2022.

Our selling and marketing costs were $61.7 million for the first nine months of 2022, a decrease of $24.5 million, or 28.4%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. This decrease was primarily due to $27.3 million in lower advertising and marketing expenses and $2.4 million in lower compensation and employee benefit costs and consulting expenses. These decreases were partially offset by $3.5 million in vitaCare service fee recorded for the first nine months of 2022, $1.2 million in higher sales conference and travel expenses, and $0.7 million in higher software development expenses.

Our general and administrative costs were $55.4 million for the first nine months of 2022, a decrease of $11.2 million, or 16.9%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. This decrease was primarily related to $12.1 million in lower compensation and employee benefit costs, $2.7 million in lower information technology expenditures, $1.0 in lower corporate rent, and $0.4 million in lower investor relations expenses. These decreases were partially offset by $4.8 million in higher expenditures attributable to various professional fees, such as legal, consulting, etc.

Our R&D costs were $4.1 million for the first nine months of 2022, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 27.8%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. This decrease was primarily attributable to $1.3 million in lower compensation and employee benefit costs, partially offset by $0.2 million in higher lab research costs. As we refocus our resources towards the continued commercialization of our pharmaceutical products, our R&D expenditures have declined over the last few years. We continue to deploy limited resources in the development of new products, to perform stability testing and validation on our pharmaceutical products, to develop and validate secondary manufacturers, to prepare regulatory submissions, and work with regulatory authorities on existing submissions.

Loss from operations. For the first nine months of 2022, we had a loss from operations of $65.8 million, a decrease of $38.6 million, or 36.9%, compared to the first nine months of 2021. This decrease was attributable to $37.3 million in lower operating expenses and $1.3 million in higher gross profit. We anticipate that we will continue to have operating losses for the near future until we are able to successfully commercialize ANNOVERA, IMVEXXY and BIJUVA, although there is no assurance that our efforts will be successful.

Other income/expense, net. For the first nine months of 2022, we had non-operating income of $100.4 million compared to non-operating expense of $25.1 million for the first nine months of 2021. This $125.5 million positive change was primarily attributable to the $143.4 million gain on the sale of the vitaCare business, net of transaction costs, $6.3 million in lower interest expense related to lower debt balance, and $4.0 million in lower interest prepayment fee due to the elimination of prepayment fees with Amendment No. 9 to the Financing Agreement. These positive changes were partially offset by $15.9 million in higher amortization of deferred financing costs, and $8.4 million in loss on extinguishment of debt in connection with Amendment No. 9 to the Financing Agreement, which is recorded as an extinguishment of debt for accounting purposes, compared to the first nine months of 2021.

Provision for income taxes. For the first nine months of 2022, we recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.3 million compared to no provision for income taxes for the first nine months of 2021.

Net loss/income. For the first nine months of 2022, we had net income of $34.3 million, or $3.86 per basic common share and $3.73 per diluted common share. Our results for the first nine months of 2022 included a non-recurring gain on sale of business related to the vitaCare Divestiture of $143.0 million, net of taxes, or $16.12 per basic common share and $15.55 per diluted common share. Without the non-recurring gain, we would have had a net loss of $108.8 million, or $12.26 per basic and diluted common share, for the first nine months of 2022 compared to a net loss of $129.5 million, or $16.68 per basic and diluted common share, for the first nine months of 2021. The historical per share data have been adjusted to give effect to the May 2022 reverse stock split.


Liquidity and capital resources

Our primary sources and usesuse of cash is to fund the continued commercialization of our hormone therapy and contraceptive products. We have funded our operations primarily through public offerings of our common stock and private placements of equity and debt securities. As of September 30, 2022, we had cash totaling $27.1 million. We maintain cash at financial institutions that at times may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits of $0.25 million per bank. We have never experienced any losses related to these funds.

On April 14, 2022, we completed the vitaCare Divestiture and included $11.3 million of customary holdbacks, as provided in the Purchase Agreement, which is recorded as restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets. The restricted cash is held by an escrow agent and will be released to us in April 2023 upon a joint written direction from the buyer and us being delivered to the escrow agent to disburse to us an amount equal to the amount of escrow funds less any amounts subject to a claim notice in accordance with the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Any amounts subject to a claim notice in accordance with the terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement shall be retained by the escrow agent until each such claim subject thereto is resolved. Additionally, we may receive up to an additional $7.0 million in earn-out consideration, contingent upon vitaCare’s financial performance through 2023 as determined in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. We utilized $120.0 million of net proceeds from the vitaCare Divestiture to make a prepayment of the loans under the Financing Agreement under the terms of Amendment No. 9 of the Financing Agreement.

See “Going Concern” above for further discussion related to our ability to generate and obtain adequate amounts of cash to meet our liquidity needs and our plans for to satisfy our such needs in the short-term and in the long-term.

Operating Activities

Activities. The principal use of cash in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was to fund our current expenses primarily related to supporting clinical development,expenditures in support of our continued commercialization activities for ANNOVERA, IMVEXXY, and BIJUVA, sales, marketing, scale-up and manufacturing activities and future commercial activities, adjusted for non-cash items. The increaseFor the first nine months of approximately $1,826,000 in2022, net cash used in operating activities was $63.9 million, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $103.1 million for the first nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared with the comparable period in the prior yearof 2021. This decrease of $39.3 million, or 38.1%, was primarily due primarily to lower non-cash compensation expense coupled with changes in the components of working capital and decreased net loss.

Investing Activities

Investing Activities. For the first nine months of 2022, net cash provided by investing activities was $142.3 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $0.7 million for the first nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared withof 2021. This increase of $143.0 million was primarily due to $142.6 million in proceeds from the same period in 2016.

Financing Activities

Financing Activities. Financing activities representhave historically represented the principal source of our cash flow. OurFor the first nine months of 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $105.3 million, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $128.2 million for the first nine months ended September 30, 2017 included approximately $68,573,000of 2021. This negative change of $233.5 million was primarily related to $180.4 million in lower net proceeds from sales of our common stock and $75.0 million in higher repayment of debt. These negative changes were partially offset by $4.4 million in payments of debt financing fees in 2021, and $18.0 million in net proceeds from the sale of Common StockSeries A Preferred Stock.

Our gross DSO is calculated by dividing average gross accounts receivable by the average daily gross product revenue to distributors during the last four quarters for each respective quarterly period. Our gross DSO was 65 days as of September 30, 2022, compared to 72 days as of December 31, 2021 and 61 days as of September 30, 2021. Our DSOs have fluctuated and will continue to fluctuate in proceeds from the salefuture due to variety of Common Stockfactors, including longer payment terms associated with the continued commercialization of ANNOVERA, IMVEXXY, and approximately $2,352,000BIJUVA and changes in proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.healthcare industry. Our exposure to credit losses


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncementsmay increase if our customers are adversely affected by changes in healthcare laws, coverage, and reimbursement, economic pressures or uncertainty associated with local or global economic recessions, disruption associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, or other customer-specific factors. Although we have historically not experienced significant credit losses, it is possible that there could be a material adverse impact from potential adjustments of the carrying amount of trade receivables in the future.

In May 2017,Inventory. We rely on third parties to manufacture our finished products, and we have entered into long-term supply agreements for the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued an Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, that clarifies when changes to the terms or conditionsmanufacture of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as modifications. The new guidance will reduce diversity in practiceANNOVERA, IMVEXXY, and result in fewer changes to the terms of an award being accounted for as modifications. The new guidance will allow companies to make certain changes to awards without accounting for them as modifications. This guidance does not change the accounting for modifications. The guidance will be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date and is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period.BIJUVA. We do not expect that adoption of this guidance will have a long-term supply agreement for the manufacture of our prescription vitamins. Additionally, we do not have long-term contracts for the supply of all the active pharmaceutical ingredients used in ANNOVERA and BIJUVA. For additional information, see Note 3, Inventory in Item 1, Financial Statements, appearing elsewhere in this 10-Q Report.

Debt. We had $94.4 million and $200.0 million in term loans outstanding under our Financing Agreement as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. For additional information, see Note 8, Debt and Note 16, Subsequent events, in Item 1, Financial Statements, appearing elsewhere in this 10-Q Report.

Contractual obligations, off-balance sheet arrangements and purchase commitments and employment agreements

For a discussion of matters in this section, refer to Item 7 - Contractual obligations, off-balance sheet arrangements and purchase commitments and employment agreements of our 2021 10-K Report.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

Management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this 10‑Q Report, which has been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016,statements and accompanying notes as of the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statementdate of Cash Flows (Topic 230). ASU 2016-15 is intended to reduce the diversity in practice regarding how certain transactions are classified within the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted with retrospective application. We do not expect that adoption of this guidance will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This guidance simplifies several aspects of theThe critical accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both publicpolicies and nonpublic entities, including theestimates used are disclosed in Item 7 - Critical accounting for income taxes, forfeitures,policies and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted ASU 2016-09 effective January 1, 2017, electing to account for forfeitures when they occur. The impact from adoption of the provisions related to forfeiture rates was reflectedestimates in our consolidated financial statements on a modified retrospective basis, resulting in an adjustment of approximately $31,000 to retained earnings. The impact from adoption of the provisions related to excess tax benefits or deficiencies in the provision for income taxes rather than paid-in capital was adopted on a modified retrospective basis. Since we have a full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets, an amount equal to the cumulative adjustment made to retained earnings to recognize the previously unrecognized net operating losses from prior periods was made to the valuation allowance through retained earnings for the first quarter financial statements. Adoption of all other changes did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This guidance requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current accounting. The guidance also eliminates current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. The standard is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. We are in the process of analyzing the quantitative impact of this guidance on our results of operations and financial position. While we are continuing to assess all potential impacts of the standard, we currently believe the impact of this standard will be primarily related to the accounting for our operating lease.2021 10-K Report.


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under previous guidance. This may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. In July 2015, the FASB approved the proposal to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 standard by one year. Early adoption is permitted after December 15, 2016, and the standard is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein. In 2016, the FASB issued final amendments to clarify the implementation guidance for principal versus agent considerations (ASU 2016-08), accounting for licenses of intellectual property and identifying performance obligations (ASU 2016-10), narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients (ASU 2016-12) and technical corrections and improvements to topic 606 (ASU 2016-20) in its new revenue standard. We have performed a preliminary review of the requirements of the new revenue standard and are monitoring the activity of the FASB and the transition resource group as it relates to specific interpretive guidance. We have reviewed customer contracts and applied the five-step model of the new standard to our contracts as well as compared the results to our current accounting practices. We are currently in the process of drafting disclosures required by the new standard. At this point of our analysis, we do not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on our financial statements but will potentially expand our disclosures related to contracts with customers.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or the Exchange Act,(the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’sSEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, in order to allow timely decisions in connection withregarding required disclosure.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive OfficerOfficers and Interim Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.10-Q Report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive OfficerOfficers and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly10-Q Report on Form 10-Q were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive OfficerOfficers and Interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Our management, including our Chief Executive OfficerOfficers and Interim Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, misstatements, errors, and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been or will be prevented or detected. Further, internal controls may become inadequate as a result of changes in conditions, or through the deterioration of the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Item 1A.

Risk factors

The business, financial condition and operating results of the Company can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described in Part I, Item 1A.    Risk1A of the 2021 10-K Report under the heading “Risk Factors,

There” any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause the Company’s actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition and operating results. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and stock price. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s risk factors previously disclosedsince the 2021 10-K Report.

Our level of indebtedness and other liabilities, and the terms of the Financing Agreement, which matures in November 2022, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our substantial amount of indebtedness and other liabilities could adversely affect our business. As of September 30, 2022, we had $94.4 million of debt outstanding under the Financing Agreement. In addition, in the third quarter of 2022, we issued 22 thousand shares of our newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and we issued an additional seven thousand shares of Series A Preferred Stock in October 2022. The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference equal to $1,333 per share of Series A Preferred Stock and matures on December 31, 2022, subject to certain extension terms, as set forth in the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”), and the Company is required to redeem the shares on such date at a redemption price per share of Series A Preferred Stock, payable in cash, equal to the liquidation preference. In addition, we have incurred make-whole payments we owe to Rubric Capital Management LP under the Subscription Agreements pursuant to which the Series A Preferred Stock was issued.

Our high level of indebtedness and other liabilities could affect our business in the following ways, among other things: make it more difficult for us to satisfy our contractual and commercial commitments; require us to use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to pay interest and principal, which would reduce funds available for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes; limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other investments or general corporate purposes; heighten our vulnerability to downturns in our Annual Report.business, our industry or in the general economy; place us at a disadvantage compared to those of our competitors that may have proportionately less debt and other liabilities; limit management’s discretion in operating our business; and limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business, the industry in which we operate or the general economy.

The Financing Agreement contains a minimum unrestricted cash balance requirement and several other restrictive covenants. The Financing Agreement requires that we and our subsidiaries party to the Financing Agreement must maintain a minimum unrestricted cash balance of $10.0 million. The Financing Agreement also contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of us and our subsidiaries party to the Financing Agreement to (i) incur indebtedness, (ii) incur liens on our property, (iii) pay dividends or make other distributions, (iv) sell our assets, (v) make certain loans or investments, (vi) merge or consolidate, and (vii) enter into transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to certain exceptions. These and other terms in the Financing Agreement have to be monitored closely for compliance and could restrict our ability to grow our business or enter into transactions that we believe would be beneficial to our business. To maintain compliance with the minimum unrestricted cash balance requirement of the Financing Agreement, we anticipate that we may need to raise additional capital. We cannot guarantee that future financing sufficient to maintain or exceed the


minimum unrestricted cash balance will be available in sufficient amounts, in a timely fashion, or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to maintain the minimum unrestricted cash balance or otherwise comply with any other covenant of the Financing Agreement, all or a portion of our obligations under the Financing Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable, which would have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, our Financing Agreement matures on November 30, 2022, and the entire principal balance under the Financing Agreement is due and payable as of such date. Our current cash on hand is not sufficient to pay the amounts due under the Financing Agreement. This raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We will need to raise additional capital to repay the entire principal balance of the Financing Agreement upon maturity. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our audited financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 and our unaudited financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. This going concern opinion could materially limit our ability to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities or otherwise. Further, we currently have approximately 1.1 million shares of Common Stock available to be issued under our current authorization, which limits our ability to raise capital through equity financing. In addition, the Certificate of Designation establishing the powers, designations, preferences and privileges and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of our Series A Preferred Stock contains restrictions that could limit our ability to raise more capital, including a prohibition on incurring certain indebtedness or liens. If we cannot continue as a going concern, our investors may lose their entire investment in our securities. Until we can generate significant cash flows, we expect to satisfy our future cash needs through debt or equity financing; however, there can be no assurance that such capital will be available, or if available, that it will be on terms acceptable to us.

If we are unable raise additional capital or to generate cash flow through operations, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt, or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations, including under the Financing Agreement.
