SOCIETAL CDMO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to consolidated financial statements

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

(Unaudited)

(1)Background

Societal CDMO, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on November 15, 2007 as Recro Pharma, Inc. Effective March 21, 2022, Recro Pharma, Inc changed its name to Societal CDMO, Inc. to reflect the corporate transformation that had taken place primarily as a result of its acquisition and successful integration of IriSys, LLC (“IriSys”) into the organization.. The Company is a bi-coastal contract development and manufacturing organization with capabilities spanning pre-investigational new drug development to commercial manufacturing and packaging for a wide range of therapeutic dosage forms with a primary focus in the area ofon small molecules. With an expertise in solving complex manufacturing problems, Societal CDMOthe Company provides therapeutic development, end-to-end regulatory support, clinical and commercial manufacturing, aseptic fill/finish, lyophilization, packaging and logistics services to the global pharmaceutical market. The Company has determined that it operates in a

single segment.Liquidity and capital resources

The Company has incurred net losses since inception, including net losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and has an accumulated deficit of $253,137273,531 as of June 30, 2022, which is primarily related to2023. As of June 30, 2023, the activities of its former researchCompany’s cash and development business that was spun-out in 2019.cash equivalents were $4,703. The Company’s future operations are highly dependent on the profitability of its development and manufacturing operations. Management concluded that substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern was raised as of the date of the issuance of these financial statements. However, management concluded that actions taken to date as well as its plans alleviate the substantial doubt that was raised.

The Company’s credit agreement with Royal Bank of Canada contains certain financial and other covenants, including a minimum liquidity requirement applicable to certain quarter-ends of $4,000, and maximum leverage ratios, and includes limitations on, among other things, additional indebtedness, paying dividends in certain circumstances, acquisitions and certain investments. The credit agreement provides for certain mandatory prepayment events, including with respect to the proceeds of asset sales, extraordinary receipts, equity or debt issuances and other specified events, based on the terms of the credit agreement. Any failure to comply with the terms, covenants and conditions of the credit agreement or the debt agreements may result in an event of default under such agreements, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.

The pharmaceutical industry is experiencing a slowdown in clinical development activities resulting from reduced cash funding and other liquidity resources and the Company is experiencing higher rates of customer attrition and development program delays that caused management to revise its 2023 earnings and cash projections during the second quarter of 2023. As a result of these factors, management took actions to amend its debt agreements to align financial covenants and other terms of the indebtedness with its revised projections (see note 16). Absent these amendments, management would not have been able to conclude that it was probable of complying with the provisions of its debt agreements through August 14, 2024.

The Company believes that its results of operations will allow it to comply with the financial and other covenants and contractual requirements of the agreements for at least the next twelve months. The Company’s ability to comply is subject to the Company’s success in implementing certain cost control measures, reducing capital expenditures and managing working capital in order to improve its ongoing financial performance and its liquidity position.

The Company may extend and or supplement the actions it is probabletaking if it continues to experience adverse conditions described above, among others, that might impact the forecasted performance. If the Company willis unable to achieve the results required to comply with the terms of its credit agreement in one or more quarters over the next twelve months, the Company may be ablerequired to meettake specific actions in addition to those described above, including but not limited to, additional cost control measures, or alternatively, seeking an amendment or waiver from its obligations as they become duelenders. Obtaining a waiver or an amendment is not within at least one year after the date financial statements included herein are issued.Company’s control, and if unsuccessful, the lenders may exercise the rights available to them under the credit agreement.

(2)Summary of significant accounting principles

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission'sCommission’s (“SEC”) rules for interim financial statements, certain information required by U.S. GAAP may be condensed or omitted. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments (which consist primarily of accruals, estimates and assumptions that impact the financial statements) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s results for the interim periods. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The Company has determined that it operates in a single segment.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.2022.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements and the notes to the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from such estimates.

Business combinations

The Company measures the purchase price paid for acquired companies based on fair value and allocates that purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Valuations are performed to assist in determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions, in particular with respect to intangible assets. Management makes estimates of fair value based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable. These estimates are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from the acquired companies and expectations of future cash flows. Costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred and classified as selling, general and administrative expenses.

5


Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash in banks and highly liquid short-term investments that have maturities of three months or less when acquired. These highly liquid short-term investments are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near to their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value due to changes in interest rates.

Accounts receivable, net

Accounts receivable generally represent amounts billed for services provided under our customer contracts and are recorded at the invoiced amount net of an allowance for credit losses, if necessary. We apply judgment in assessing the ultimate realization of our receivables, and we estimate an allowance for credit losses based on various factors, such as the aging of our receivables, historical experience, and the financial condition of our customers. The allowance for credit losses was not material as of the balance sheet dates presented.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Included in inventory are raw materials and work-in-process used in the production of commercial products. Items are issued out of inventory using the first-in, first-out method.

Adjustments to inventory are determined at the raw materials, work-in-process, and finished good levels to reflect obsolescence or impaired balances. Factors influencing inventory obsolescence include changes in demand, product life cycle, product pricing, physical deterioration and quality concerns.

Property, plant and equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are as follows: three to ten years for furniture, office and computer equipment; sixto ten years for manufacturing equipment; 40 years for buildings; and the shorter of the lease term or useful life for leasehold improvements. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. The Company reviews the carrying value of property, plant and equipment for recoverability whenever events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of individual assets or asset groups may not be recoverable.

6


The Company considers assets to be held for sale when (i) management commits to a plan to sell the asset; (ii) the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (iii) the asset is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable given the estimate of current market value; and (iv) the sale is probable and will be completed within one year. Upon designation of an asset as held for sale, the Company records the asset’s value at the lower of its carrying value plus selling costs or its estimated net realizable value.

Goodwill and intangible assets

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired by the Company in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but assessed for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if impairment indicators exist.

The impairment analysis for goodwill consists of an optional qualitative assessment potentially followed by a quantitative analysis. If the Company determines that the carrying value of its reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recorded for the excess.

The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test as of November 30th, or whenever an event or change in circumstance occurs that would require reassessment of the impairment of goodwill. In performing the evaluation, the Company assesses qualitative factors such as overall financial performance, actual and anticipated changes in industry and market conditions, and competitive environments. As a result of the most recent annual goodwill impairment test, the Company determined that there was no impairment of goodwill.

Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.life. The Company is required to review the carrying value of definite-lived intangible assets for recoverability whenever events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable.

Contingencies

The Company'sCompany’s business exposes it to various contingencies including compliance with regulations, legal exposures and other matters. Loss contingencies are reflected in the financial statements based on management'smanagement’s assessments of their expected outcome or resolution:

They are recognized as liabilities on the balance sheet if the potential loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

6


They are disclosed if the potential loss is material and considered at least reasonably possible.

Significant judgment is required to determine probability and whether the amount can be reasonably estimated. Due to uncertainties related to these matters, accruals are based only on the information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, the Company reassesses potential liabilities and may revise previous estimates.

Revenue recognition

The Company generates revenues from manufacturing, packaging, researchprofit-sharing and development and related services for multiple pharmaceutical companies.

Manufacturing

Manufacturing, packaging and other related services revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of a product to a customer, generally upon shipment, based on a transaction price that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to as specified in the agreement with the commercial partner, which could include variable consideration such as pricing and volume-based adjustments.

7


Profit-sharing

In addition to manufacturing and packaging revenue, certain customercustomers who use our technologies are subject to agreements may havethat provide us intellectual property sales-based profit-sharing and/or royalties consideration, collectively referred to as profit-sharing, computed on the net product sales of the commercial partner. Profit-sharing revenues are generally recognized under the terms of the applicable license, development and/or supply agreement. ForThe Company has determined that, in its arrangements, that include sales-based profit-sharing where the license for intellectual property is deemed to benot the predominant item to which the profit-sharing relates, the Company recognizes revenue when the related sales occur by the commercial partner. For arrangements that include sales-based profit-sharing where the license for intellectual property is not deemed to be the predominant item to which the profit-sharing relates,so the Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control of the manufactured product. In these cases, significant judgment is required to calculate the estimated variable consideration from such profit-sharing using the expected value method based on historical commercial partner pricing and deductions. Estimated variable consideration is partially constrained due to the uncertainty of price adjustments made by the Company’s commercial partners, which are outside of the Company’s control. Factors causing price adjustments by the Company’s commercial partners include increased competition in the products’ markets, mix of volume between the commercial partners’ customers, and changes in government pricing.

Research and developmentDevelopment

Research and developmentDevelopment revenue includes services associated with formulation, process development, clinical trialstrial materials services, as well as custom development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods for a customer’s non-clinical, clinical and commercial products. Such revenues are recognized at a point in time or over time depending on the nature and particular facts and circumstances associated with the contract terms.

In contracts that specify milestones, the Company evaluates whether the milestones are considered probable of being achieved and estimates the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. Milestone payments related to arrangements under which the Company has continuing performance obligations are deferred and recognized over the period of performance. Milestone payments that are not within the Company’s control, such as submission for approval to regulators by a commercial partner or approvals from regulators, are not considered probable of being achieved until those submissions are submitted by the customer or approvals are received.

In contracts that require revenue recognition over time, the Company utilizes input or output methods, depending on the specifics of the contract, that compare the cumulative work-in-process to date to the most current estimates for the entire performance obligation. Under these contracts, the customer typically owns the product details and process, which have no alternative use. These projects are customized to each customer to meet its specifications, and typically only one performance obligation is included. Each project represents a distinct service that is sold separately and has stand-alone value to the customer. The customer also retains control of its product as the product is being created or enhanced by the Company’s services and can make changes to its process or specifications upon request.

Contract assets represent revenue recognized for performance obligations completed or in process before an unconditional right to payment exists, and therefore invoicing or associated reporting from the customer regarding the computation of the net product sales has not yet occurred. Contract liabilities represent payments received from customers prior to the completion of associated performance obligations.

7


Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company manages its cash and cash equivalents based on established guidelines relative to diversification and maturities to maintain safety and liquidity.

The Company’s accounts receivable balances are primarily concentrated among 3three customers.customers, with balances in the aggregate accounting for 78% of the balance as of June 30, 2023. If any of these customers’ receivable balances should be deemed uncollectible, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

The Company is dependent on its relationships with a small number of commercial partners. The Company's 3Company’s three largest customers generated 66% and 76% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 75% and 72% of its revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Stock-based compensation expense

The Company measures employee stock-based awards at grant-date fair value and recognizes employee compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

8


Determining the appropriate fair value of stock options requires the use of subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the option and expected stock price volatility. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value its stock option awards. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change and/or management uses different assumptions, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different for future awards.

The expected life of stock options was estimated using the “simplified method,” which is based on the average of the vesting tranches and the contractual life of each grant. For stock price volatility, the Company uses the historical volatility of its publicly traded stock in order to estimate future stock price trends. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury notes with a term approximating the expected life of the option.

Upon exercise of stock options or vesting of restricted stock units, the holder may elect to cover tax withholdings by forfeiting shares of an equivalent value. In such cases, the Company issues net new shares to the holder, pays the tax withholding on behalf of the participant and presents the payment similar to a capital distribution: a reduction to additional paid-in-capital and a financing cash outflow in the consolidated financial statements.

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to

In assessing the extentrealizability of net deferred tax assets, the Company considers all relevant positive and negative evidence in determining whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The realization of the gross deferred tax assets is dependent on several factors, including the generation of sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the net operating loss carryforwards. A full valuation allowance was recorded as of June 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021.2022.

Unrecognized income tax benefits represent income tax positions taken on income tax returns that have not been recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The Company recognizes the benefit of an income tax position only if it is more likely than not (greater than 50%) that the tax position will be sustained upon tax examination, based solely on the technical merits of the tax position. Otherwise, no benefit is recognized. The tax benefits recognized are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company does not anticipate significant changes in the amount of unrecognized income tax benefits over the next year.

Leases

The Company determines under U.S. GAAP if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The arrangement is a lease if it conveys the right to the Company to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Options to extend the lease are included in the lease term if the options are reasonably certain to be exercised. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

8In a sale-leaseback transaction, the Company determines if it relinquished control of the assets to the buyer-lessor. If control is not relinquished, it does not derecognize the asset and does not apply the lease accounting model.


Operating lease balances are presented as separate captions on the balance sheets. Finance lease assets are included in property, plant and equipment. Finance lease liabilities are included in debt.other liabilities.

Income or loss per share

Basic income or loss per share is determined by dividing net income or loss (the numerator) by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period (the denominator).

To calculate diluted income or loss per share, the numerator and denominator are adjusted to eliminate the income or loss and the dilutive effects on shares, respectively, caused by outstanding common stock options, warrants and unvested restricted stock units, using the treasury stock method, if the inclusion of such instruments would be dilutive.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company reported net income. The calculation of net income used to determine basic and diluted per share results in the period ended June 30, 2021, is consistent with how net income is calculated in the period ended June 30, 2022, however, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding used to determine basic and diluted per share results differs. The following table reconciles that difference for the period ended June 30, 2021:

For all other periods presented, the Company incurred a net loss. In periods of net loss, the inclusion of dilutive securities would be antidilutive because it would reduce the amount of loss incurred per share. As a result, no additional dilutive shares were included in diluted loss per share, and there were no differences between basic and diluted loss per share.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”). This ASU provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, which refines the scope of Topic 848 and clarifies some of its guidance as part of the FASB’s monitoring of global reference rate activities. The new guidance was effective upon issuance, and the Company is allowed to elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

(13)(14)Fair value of financial instruments

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” for fair value measurement recognition and disclosure purposes for its financial assets and financial liabilities that are remeasured and reported at fair value each reporting period. The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including cash equivalents, short-term investments and certain warrants. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and financial liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. Categorization is based on a three-tier valuation hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value, as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

16


Level 2: Inputs that are other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, inputs that are quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Items measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Cash equivalents of $10,7542,525 at June 30, 20222023 and $15,2476,034 at December 31, 20212022 consisted entirely of money market mutual funds whose fair value were determined using Level 1 measurements.

Fair value disclosures

The Company follows the disclosure provisions of FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments” (ASC 825), for disclosure purposes for financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value. As of June 30, 2022,2023, the financial assets and liabilities recorded on the consolidated balance sheets that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying values of these financial assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

16


The fair value of long-term debt, where a quoted market price is not available, is evaluated based on, among other factors, interest rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms, remaining payments and considerations of the Company’s creditworthiness. The Company determined that the recorded book value of its debt, a level 2 measurement, approximated fair value at June 30, 20222023 due to the recent issuances and amendment of those instruments and taking into consideration management'smanagement’s current evaluation of market conditions.

(14)(15)Leases

The Company is party to 2two operating leases for development facilities in California and Georgia that end in 2031and 2025, respectively, as well as other immaterial operating leases for office space, storage and office equipment. The development facility leases each include options to extend, none of which are included in the lease terms. Short-term and variable lease costs were not material for the periods presented. The development facility leases do not provide an implicit rate, so the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease liabilities.

Undiscounted future lease payments for the 2two development leases, which were the only material noncancelable leases at June 30, 2022,2023, were as follows:

With an expertise in solving complex formulation and manufacturing problems, we areSocietal is a leading CDMO providing development, end-to-end regulatory support, clinical and commercial manufacturing, aseptic fill/finish, lyophilization, packaging and logistics services to the global pharmaceutical market. In addition to our experience in handling DEA-controlled substances and developing and manufacturing advancedmodified-release dosage forms, we haveSocietal has the expertise to deliver on our clients’ pharmaceutical development and manufacturing projects, regardless of complexity level. We do all of this in our best-in-classstate-of-the-art facilities that, in the aggregate, total 145,000 square feet, in Gainesville, Georgia and San Diego, California.

We currently manufacture the following key products with our key commercial partners: Ritalin LA®, Focalin XR®, Verelan PM®, Verelan SR®, Verapamil PM, Verapamil SR and Donnatal liquids and tablets and Scot-Tussin cough and cold liquids, as well as supportingtablets. We also support numerous development stage products. During the first quarter of 2023, the FDA approved the Company as a manufacturer of a commercial tablet product. This FDA approval represents the first commercial tablet that Societal CDMO has been approved to manufacture, and the Company began commercial manufacturing of the product at its Gainesville, Georgia facilities in the middle of 2023.

Effective March 21,Our manufacturing and development capabilities include product development from formulation through clinical trial and commercial manufacturing, and specialized capabilities for solid oral dosage forms, with specialization in modified release technologies and facilities to handle high potent compounds and controlled substances, liposomes and nano/microparticles, topicals and oral liquids. In September 2022, Societal announced a new state-of-the-art, aseptic fill/finish and lyophilization suite in our San Diego facility to further our goal of offering end-to-end solutions to our clients. In addition to providing manufacturing capabilities, we changedoffer our namecustomers clinical trial support including over-encapsulation, comparator sourcing, packaging, labeling, storage and distribution. We have a bi-coastal footprint from which to Societal CDMO, Inc.better serve clients within the U.S., as well as globally. In a typical collaboration between us and our commercial partners, we continue to reflect the corporate transformation that has taken place primarily as a resultwork with our partners to develop product candidates or new formulations of our acquisitionexisting product candidates. We also typically exclusively manufacture and successful integrationsupply clinical and commercial supplies of IriSys into the organization.these proprietary products and product candidates.

We use cash flow generated by our business primarily to fund the growth of our CDMO business and to make payments under our credit facility. We believe our business will continue to contribute cash to fund our growth, to make payments under our credit facility and for other general corporate purposes.

Global economic and supply conditions

We rely on third-party manufacturers to supply our manufacturing components, supplies and related materials, which in some instances are supplied from a single source. Prolonged disruptions in the supply of any of our third-party materials, difficulty implementing new sources of supply or significant price increases could have an adverse effect on our results. While the impact of COVID-19 has lessened in many ways, weWe are experiencing a higher level of residual supply chain disruptions that we are actively managing to meet our second half 2022 production timelines and that may constrain our ability to capture additional growth opportunities, beyond our established projections, from customers who would otherwise want to increase their safety stock of the products that we produce.

We also continue to closely monitor global economic developments related to COVID-19 and other diseases and geopolitical conflicts, such as the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which continue to have adverse effects on the U.S. and global markets.markets and supply chain.

DueWe have begun to these and other factors, we anticipatesee the effects of a general slowdown in clinical development activity as a result of clinical failures and/or a lack of adequate funding to go forward. We are making efforts to adapt to these market changes, including a reconfiguration of our business development team to be better positioned in the longer-term by focusing on account management roles and replacing lost positions in strategic focus areas. The slowdown has caused us to experience reductions to our backlog during the first half of 2023. Going forward, whichthe slowdown and/or the reconfiguration may cause us to experience additional reductions to our backlog and/or a reduction in the number of business development opportunities that we will be able to pursue during 2022. or close in 2023.

We also expect to face continuing inflationary pressures on raw materials, labor and logistics during 2022.2023. Finally, we expect to bewere impacted by higher variable base interest rates on our LIBOR-based term loan borrowings under credit agreements during the second half of 2022, and while we believe that we have been able to capture overall interest savings as a result of the December 2022 refinancing, we expect those improvements could be partially offset by that sustained variable base interest rate increases from 2022.

Financial overview

Revenues

We recognize three types of revenue: manufacturing, profit-sharing and researchdevelopment.

As previously disclosed, in May 2023, Lannett, which represented 16% of our revenue in 2022, commenced prepackaged Chapter 11 cases in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware and development.entered into a restructuring support agreement with certain of its lenders. On June 8, 2023, Lannett emerged from the Chapter 11 bankruptcy as a privately-held company under the ownership of its prepetition lenders. While our agreement with Lannett remains in place, at this time we do not know whether Lannett's performance with sales of Verapamil PM will be impacted by these events or might otherwise impact our economics going forward.

Manufacturing

We recognize manufacturing revenue from the sale of products we manufacture for our commercial partners. Manufacturing revenues are recognized upon transfer of control of a product to a customer, generally upon shipment, based on a transaction price that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to as specified in the agreement with the commercial partner, which could include pricing and volume-based adjustments.

Profit-sharing

We recognizeIn addition to manufacturing revenue, certain customers who use our technologies are subject to agreements that provide us intellectual property sales-based profit-sharing and/or royalty revenue,royalties consideration, collectively referred to as profit-sharing, revenue, related tocomputed on the salenet product sales of products by ourthe commercial partners that incorporate our technologies.partner. Profit-sharing revenues are generally recognized under the terms of the applicable license, development and/or supply agreement. ForWe have determined, that in our arrangements, that include sales-based profit-sharing and the license for intellectual property is deemed to benot the predominant item to which the profit-sharing relates, so we recognize revenue when the related sales occur by the commercial partner. For arrangements that include sales-based profit-sharing and the license is not deemed to be the predominant item to which the profit-sharing relates, we recognize revenue when the performance obligation to which the profit-sharing has been allocated has been satisfied, which is upon transfer of control of a product to a customer.the manufactured product. In these cases, significant judgment is required to calculate the estimated variable consideration from such profit-sharing using the expected value method based on historical commercial partner pricing and deductions. Estimated variable consideration is partially constrained due to the uncertainty of price adjustments made by our commercial partners, which are outside of our control. Factors causing price adjustments by our commercial partners include increased competition in the products’ markets, mix of volume between the commercial partners’ customers, and changes in government pricing.

Research and development

Research and development21


Development

Development revenue includes services associated with formulation, process development, clinical trial material and clinical trial supportmaterials services, as well as custom development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods for a customer’s non-clinical, clinical and commercial products. Such revenues are recognized at a point in time or over time depending on the nature and particular facts and circumstances associated with the contract terms.

In contracts that specify milestones, we evaluate whether the milestones are considered probable of being achieved and estimate the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. Milestone payments related to arrangements under which we have continuing performance obligations are deferred and recognized over the period of performance. Milestone payments that are not within our control, such as submission for approval to regulators by a commercial partner or approvals from regulators, are not considered probable of being achieved until those submissions are submitted by the customer or approvals are received.

20


In contracts that require revenue recognition over time, we utilize input or output methods, depending on the specifics of the contract, that compare the cumulative work-in-process to date to the most current estimates for the entire performance obligation. Under these contracts, the customer typically owns the product details and process, which have no alternative use. These projects are customized to each customer to meet its specifications, and typically only one performance obligation is included. Each project represents a distinct service that is sold separately and has stand-alone value to the customer. The customer also retains control of its product as the product is being created or enhanced by our services and can make changes to its process or specifications upon request.

Cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses

Cost of sales consists of inventory costs, including production wages, material costs and overhead, and other costs related to the recognition of revenue. Selling, general and administrative expenses consistsconsist of salaries and related costs for administrative, public company costs,and business development personnelfunctions as well as legal fees, patent-related expenses and consulting fees. Public company costs include compliance, auditing services,audit, tax, services, insurance and investor relations.

In October 2021, we integrated and reorganized our collective employee base to support a multi-site organization. As a result, certain employees in administrative roles are supporting the entire company instead of plant operations. Costs associated with these employees, including employee compensation and other expenses, are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses prospectively from October 1, 2021.

Primarily in the last nine months of 2021, we qualified for approximately $4.4 million of federal employee retention credits that were recognized as offsets to expense. We will not recognize any such expense offsets in 2022.

Amortization of intangible assets

Historically, we recognized amortization expense related to an intangible asset for our profit-sharing and contract manufacturing relationships on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of six years. Amortization stopped when the intangible asset reached the end of its useful life in April 2021. With the acquisition of IriSys, weWe are recognizing amortization expense related to acquired customer relationships, backlog and trademarks and trade names on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 7,7.0, 2.4, and 1.5 years, respectively.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the periodscurrent period presented primarily relates to our Athyriumnew term loan borrowing with Royal Bank of Canada originally funded at $36.9 million and the financial liability related to the sale and leaseback of our commercial manufacturing campus in Gainesville, Georgia for gross proceeds of $39.0 million. Interest expense for the prior period presented primarily relates to the $100.0 million senior secured term loans with Athyrium Opportunities III Acquisition LP and the amortization of related financing costs. In addition, following the acquisition

As a result of IriSys, there is additionalthese changes, interest expense relatedwas lower in the first half of 2023 and will continue to be lower in future periods due to the lower amount of aggregate principal and lower variable interest onmargins as compared to the sellers note which was a component of the IriSys acquisition purchase price.Athyrium borrowings.

Net operating losses and tax carryforwards

As of December 31, 2021,2022, we had federal net operating loss, or NOL, carry forwards of approximately $135.9$125.6 million, $127.7 millionsubstantially all of which are subject to annual limitations following a December 2022 change in control and have an indefinite carry forward period. The remaining $8.2 million of federal NOL carry forwards, $137.7We also had $135.4 million of state NOL carry forwards and federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of $4.6 million are also available to offset future taxable income but theythat will begin to expire at various dates beginning in 2028 if not utilized. We believe that it is more likely than not that theour deferred income tax assets associated with our U.S. operations will not be realized, and as such, there is a full valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax assets.allowance.

Key indicators of performance

To evaluate our performance, we monitor a number of industry-standard key indicators such as:

Safety and human capital management, as measured by recordable injuries, good saves and employee retention;
Operational excellence, as measured by the percentage of our orders that are delivered on-time and in full;
New business growth, as measured by value of new contracts signed; and

22


Financial operating results, as measured by revenue and EBITDA, as adjusted.

21


EBITDA, as adjusted, is a non-GAAP measure that we discuss and reconcile to its nearest GAAP measure elsewhere in our public financial reporting. We believe that supplementing our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP with non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, creditors and others in assessing our performance. These measurements should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for reported GAAP results because they may include or exclude certain items as compared to similar GAAP-based measurements, and such measurements may not be comparable to similarly-titled measurements reported by other companies. Rather, these measurements should be considered as an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that provide a more completeand gaining an understanding of our business.

Revenue. The increasedecrease of $5.2$1.4 million was primarily driven by an increasea decrease in European Ritalin LA demandrevenue from our largest commercial customer, Teva, due to a scheduled shutdown of our packaging line to implement the upgrades required to comply with new serialization aggregation compliance standards. In addition, the manufacturing revenue associated with then new customer, InfectoPharm,InfectoPharm’s, inventory-build during the second quarter of 2022, was greater than the normalized quarterly revenue resulting fromrecorded in the acquisitionsecond quarter of IriSys, as well as higher2023. These reductions in revenue were partially offset by increased pre-commercial development revenues from our clinical trial materials business. These increases were partially offset by declining revenues from Lannett’s commercial sales of Verapamil PM products compared to the prior year. In an effort to address this decline, we recently executed an amendment to our license and supply agreement with Lannett for the marketing of Verapamil PM and Verelan products subsequent to the end of the period, which provides overall improved economics for Societal and is expected to strengthen revenues from Lannett in the second half of the year despite the declines experienced in the first half of the year.technology transfer projects.

Cost of sales. The increasedecrease of $5.2$0.2 million was primarily due to costs associated with operating the San Diego facility acquired from IriSys and increased costs tied to the increasedlower commercial manufacturing revenue duringbased on the quarter. In addition, in 2021, we received certain employment incentive tax credits that were not repeated in 2022 resulting in increased expense in 2022. These increases were partiallytiming of the serialization aggregation compliance project offset by higher fixed costs primarily to support the reallocation of expenses reflecting the post-acquisition organizational structure. Prior to October 1, 2021, these employees supportednewly installed aseptic fill/finish line that has expanded our plant operations and were classified in cost of sales.capabilities.

The increase of $1.4 million was primarily related to increased personnel costs tied toSelling, general and administrative expenses were relatively consistent for the reallocation of expenses reflecting the post-acquisition organizational structure (see cost of sales above) and integration costs associated with the IriSys integration.periods presented.

Amortization of intangible assets. The increase of $0.1 million was the result of the amortization related to the acquisition of IriSys for acquired customer relationships, backlog and trademarks and trade names partially offset by the amortization of CDMO royalties and contract manufacturing relationships acquired in 2015 ending on April 10, 2021.

Interest expense. The decrease of $0.6 million was primarily due to reduced non-cash financing expense and increased capitalized interest. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest from the debt portion of the IriSys acquisition purchase price.

Gain on extinguishment of debt. In June 2021, the promissory note with PNC Bank under the Paycheck Protection Program of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020, or the PPP Note, and all accrued interest thereon was forgiven.

Revenue. The increase of $9.5 million was primarily driven by revenue resulting from the acquisition of IriSys as well as higher revenues from our clinical trial materials business. In addition, there was an increase in European Ritalin LA demand from our new customer InfectoPharm as well as an increase in revenue from our largest commercial customer Teva, correlated with pull through in demand resulting from market share gains against the sole competitor for the Verapamil SR products. The increase in revenue was partially offset by a decline in revenue from Lannett’s commercial sales of the Verapamil PM products.

Cost of sales. The increase of $6.9 million was primarily due to the acquisition of the San Diego facility and certain 2021 employment incentive tax credits that were not repeated in 2022 resulting in increased expense in 2022. These increases were partially offset by the reallocation of expenses reflecting the post-acquisition organizational structure. Prior to October 1, 2021, these employees supported our plant operations and were classified in cost of sales.

Selling, general and administrative. The increase of $2.4 million was primarily related to increased personnel costs tied to the reallocation of expenses and integration costs associated with the IriSys integration. These increases were offset by lower stock-based compensation expense.

Amortization of intangible assets. The decrease of $0.3 million was the result of the amortization of CDMO royalties and contract manufacturing relationships acquired in 2015 ending on April 10, 2021 partially offset by the amortization related to the acquisition of IriSys for acquired customer relationships, backlog and trademarks and trade names.

Interest expense. The decrease of $1.0$1.1 million was primarily due to a significantly reduced non-cash financing expenseamount of aggregate principal and increased capitalized interest.

Liquidity and capital resources

At June 30, 2022,2023, we had $15.5$4.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. Our credit agreement with Royal Bank of Canada, as amended, contains a quarterly minimum liquidity requirement of $4.0 million through June 30, 2024. Our ability to continue to comply with the minimum liquidity requirement is subject to our success in implementing certain cost control measures, reducing capital expenditures and managing working capital in order to improve our ongoing financial performance and our liquidity position.

Since our inception, we have financed our operations and capital expenditures primarily from results of operations, andfrom the issuance of equity and debt.debt, and recently, to a lesser extent, from real estate transactions. During the first half of 2022,2023, our capital expenditures were $3.3$5.5 million to maintain, scale and support our expansion of our capabilities.

See Part II, Item 5 for information about an amendment to the Credit Agreement that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2023.

We are currently party to a credit agreement with Athyrium,Royal Bank of Canada, or the Credit Agreement, which has been fully drawn.for a term loan originally funded at $36.9 million. The Credit Agreement requires usprincipal is being repaid in quarterly amounts, including $2.3 million, $3.2 million and $0.9 million to repaybe paid during the twelve months ending June 30, 2024, 2025 and 2026, respectively. The final payment of all remaining outstanding principal amount of $100.0 millionis due on December 31, 2023. The Credit Agreement also includes certain financial covenants that the Company will need to satisfy on a monthly and quarterly basis, including: (i) maintaining a permitted net leverage ratio, calculated as our indebtedness, net of cash and cash equivalents, divided by EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit Agreement; and (ii) a minimum amount of cash and cash equivalents on hand.16, 2025.

23Subject to certain exceptions, we are required to make mandatory prepayments with the cash proceeds received in respect of asset sales, certain equity sales, extraordinary receipts, debt issuances, upon a change of control and specified other events. Additionally, we are obligated by December 14, 2023 to complete the sale of certain real property adjacent to our Gainesville, Georgia manufacturing campus. If that property is not sold by December 14, 2023, we will be required to pay a fee of $0.4 million and increase each of our quarterly principal payments by $0.2 million until that property is sold and any mandatory principal prepayment is made.

24


In September 2022, we signed a sales and purchase agreement to sell approximately 121 acres of land adjacent to our Gainesville, Georgia manufacturing campus for expected proceeds of $9.1 million, which we are obligated to use to repay outstanding balances on the Credit Agreement. The land sale is expected to close in the first half of 2024. Until closing, the sale of the land is subject to customary closing conditions for transactions of this type, including completion of title and environmental due diligence and receipt of certain zoning approvals and permits.

The pharmaceutical industry is experiencing a slowdown in clinical development activities resulting from reduced cash funding and other liquidity resources and we are experiencing higher rates of customer attrition and development program delays that caused us to revise our 2023 earnings and cash projections during the second quarter of 2023. As a result of these factors, we took actions to amend our debt agreements to align financial covenants and other terms of the indebtedness with our revised projections. Absent these amendments, we would not have been able to conclude that it was probable that we would comply with the provisions of our debt agreements through August 14, 2024.

We believe that our results of operations will allow us to comply with the financial and other covenants and contractual requirements of the agreements for at least the next twelve months. Our ability to comply is subject to our success in implementing certain cost control measures, reducing capital expenditures and managing working capital in order to improve our ongoing financial performance and our liquidity position.

We may extend and or supplement the actions we are also partytaking if we continue to an amended common stock purchase agreementexperience adverse conditions described above, among others, that might impact the forecasted performance.

Cash flows from operating activities represents our net loss as adjusted for stock-based compensation depreciation,expense, non-cash interest expense, anddepreciation expense, amortization of intangiblesintangible assets and deferred income tax expense as well as changes in operating assets and liabilities. The increase$4.5 million decrease in cash flows used for operating activities in operations in 20222023 compared to 20212022 was primarily due to favorable working capital changes, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense in addition to changes in operating assets and liabilities. These included (i) a $3.3 million change in inventory balances due to timingearnings exclusive of production and customer orders; (ii) a $1.1 million change in accounts receivable due to increased sales activity; (iii) a $2.3 million change in accrued payroll due to the fact that there were limited cash bonuses paid in 2021 and the effects of payroll period cutoff; and (iv) an additional $2.2 million interest payment that fell in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, partially offset by (v) a $0.5 million reduction of prepaid expenses and other current assets.non-cash items.

Net cash used in investing activities for each period includes capital expenditures to scale and support our expansion of capabilities. With the inclusion of IriSys, we continue to anticipate that 2022 capital expenditures will increase as we continue to maintain our existing capabilities and support the growth of our clinical trials business and other new business acquired from IriSys. We expect to complete a significant capital project during the early second half of 2022 that will enhance our sterile fill and finishing capabilities. If we are unable to complete the capital project according to plan, this could have an adverse impact on our forecasted results.

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2021 changed to net cash used in financing activities in 2022, a change of $21.5increased $2.8 million primarily due to the absence of significant activities that occurred in 2021; in the first half of 2021, net proceeds from an issuance of common stock of $32.1 million were partially offset by debt repayments of $10.1$0.9 million and related financing cost payments of $0.2 million.$2.0 million related to the December 2022 debt refinancing.

Forward-looking factors

Our future use of operating cash and capital requirements will depend on many forward-looking factors, including the following:

the extent to which we in-license, acquire or invest in products, businesses and technologies;
the timing and extent of our manufacturing and capital expenditures;
our ability to maintain or expand our relationships and contracts with our commercial partners;
our ability to grow and diversify our business with new customers, including our ability to meet desired project outcomes with development customers;

24


our ability to regain profitability;
our ability to comply with stringent U.S. & foreign government regulation in the manufacture of pharmaceutical products, including cGMP and U.S. DEA requirements;
our ability to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or sale of real estate or other assets;
the costs of maintaining, enforcing and defending intellectual property claims;
our ability to regain, and maintain, compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing standards;
the extent to which health epidemics and other outbreaks of communicable diseases, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, could disrupt our operations or materially and adversely affect our business and financial conditions; and
the extent to which inflation, global instability, including political instability such as a deterioration in the relationship between the US and China or escalation in conflict between Russia and Ukraine, including any additional resulting sanctions, export controls or other restrictive actions that may be imposed by the U.S. and/or other countries against governmental or other entities in, for example, Russia, may disrupt our business operations or financial condition or the financial condition of our customers and suppliers.

We anticipate raising funds from real estate asset sales to reduce our outstanding debt principal. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could impact real estate values and or our ability, if any, to successfully monetize the sale of any non-core real-estate assets including, but not limited to, market forces, economic conditions, revenue concentration, debt levels, geographic location, interest rates, results of engineering plans, geotechnical surveys, coverage density, physical characteristics of the land (e.g. rock, wetlands delineation, streams, powerlines, topography, zoning), ability to reach acceptable contractual terms and obtaining the required approvals and release(s) from our senior secured lender.

We may also use existing cash and cash equivalents on hand, additional debt, equity financing, sale of real-estate or other assets or out-licensing revenue or a combination thereof to fund our operations or acquisitions. If we increase our debt levels, we might be restricted in our ability to raise additional capital and might be subject to financial and restrictive covenants. OurIf we issue additional equity in future periods, our shareholders may experience dilution as a result of the issuance of additional equity or debt securities.dilution. This dilution may be significant depending upon the amount of equity or debt securities that we issue and the prices at which we issue any securities.

Because the AthyriumRoyal Bank of Canada term loans bearloan bears interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR,SOFR, we estimated future interest commitments utilizing the LIBORSOFR rate as of June 30, 2022.2023. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the future interest obligations are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheet.

In August 2022, we amended our credit agreeement and note issued to the former members of IriSys, which resulted in no changes to the presentation of the table. See Part II, Item 5 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(2)
Purchase obligations consist of cancelable and non-cancelable purchase commitments related to inventory, capital expenditures and other goods or services. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, these obligations are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheets.

(3)
We are party to two operating leases for development facilities in California and Georgia that end in 2031 and 2025, respectively. The leases each include options to extend at our discretion.
(4)
We are party to a lease for a DEA-licensed facility in Georgia that ends in 2042. The lease includes the option to extend at our discretion. The principal component of this obligation is classified as a liability under U.S. GAAP, therefore we did not present it as an operating or capital lease in the table.
(5)
We have entered into employment agreements with each of our named executive officers that provide for, among other things, severance commitments of up to $1.3$1.4 million should we terminate the named executive officers for convenience or if certain events occur following a change in control. In addition, we would be subject to other contingencies of up to $3.8$4.6 million in the aggregate if certain events occur following a change in control. Because these obligations are contingent, the amounts are not included in the table above.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

Our critical accounting policies and estimates are disclosed in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of our Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk

There has been no material change in our assessment of our sensitivity to market risk described in the Annual Report.

Item 4. Controls and procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2022.2023. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be 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 and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. However, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022,2023, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal proceedings.

Information regarding legal and regulatory proceedings is set forth in note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, and is incorporated by reference herein.

We are also engaged in various other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business (such as, for example, proceedings relating to employment matters or the initiation or defense of proceedings relating to intellectual property rights) and, while there can be no assurance, we believe that the ultimate outcome of these other legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Item 1A.Risk factors.

Investing in our securities involves certain risks. In addition to any risks and uncertainties described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, investors should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report. These risks are not the only risks that could materialize. Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those previously disclosed in our 2021 Annual Report and Quarterly Report for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.2023.

Our revenues are dependent on a small number of commercial partners, and the loss of any one of these partners, or a decline in their orders, may adversely affect our business.

We are dependent on a small number of commercial partners, with our four largest customers (Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, Inc., or Teva, Novartis Pharma AG, or Novartis, Lannett Company, Inc., or Lannett, and InfectoPharm Arzneimittel und Consilium GmbH, or InfectoPharm) having generated 77% of our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022, of which Teva generated 34%, Novartis generated 18%, Lannett generated 16%, and InfectoPharm generated 9%. In May 2023, Lannett, which represented 16% of our revenue in 2022, commenced prepackaged Chapter 11 cases in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware and entered into a restructuring support agreement with certain of its lenders. On June 8, 2023, Lannett emerged from the Chapter 11 bankruptcy as a privately-held company under the ownership of its prepetition lenders. While our agreement with Lannett remains in place, at this time we do not know whether Lannett's performance with sales of Verapamil PM post-bankruptcy will impact our economics going forward. In addition, Novartis has provided us notice it intends to assign our agreement to Sandoz, its generic division, as part of the public spin-off of Sandoz. Such developments with Lannett and Novartis, as well as any increases in competition in the market, pricing adjustments, significantly reduced purchasing volume or financial difficulties (for example, the Lannett bankruptcy) with any one or more of our key commercial partners could adversely affect our revenue.

Our profit sharing, royalty, and manufacturing revenues also depend on the ability of our commercial partners to effectively market and sell their products to their customers. A commercial partner may choose to devote its efforts to its other products or reduce or fail to devote the necessary resources to provide effective sales and marketing support for the products we manufacture and supply. Furthermore, the acquisition of or change in strategy by one of our customers could impact projects we are currently working on or planning to work on in the future. Our commercial partners face competition from other pharmaceutical companies for sales of products to end users. Competition from sellers of generic drugs is a major challenge for our commercial partners, and the loss or expiration of intellectual property rights for the products we manufacture can have a significant adverse effect on their sales volume and price. Our commercial partners have also experienced difficulties in recent years as the pharmaceutical industry was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, labor shortages, supply chain shortages, inflationary pressures and geopolitical turmoil. Similar pressures could lead a partner to discontinue a product, make pricing changes or change ordering patterns. In addition, as pharmaceutical product pricing faces scrutiny by governments, legislative bodies and enforcement agencies, our commercial partners may lower their prices or adopt cost-savings measures which could be passed on to us or otherwise impact our profit-sharing revenues. Further, any commercial partner may divest the product we manufacture for them in whole or in certain markets, which may involve termination of our contract with such partner or the assignment of such contract to a new partner who may not be as effective at selling or commercializing such product. Pricing changes and any significant reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from our commercial partners could adversely affect our revenues.

The delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market may make it more difficult for us to raise capital on favorable terms in the future. Such a delisting would likely a result in a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our shareholders and may impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so:

the liquidity of our common stock;
the market price of our common stock;
our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations;
the number of investors that will consider investing in our common stock;
the number of market makers in our common stock;
the availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of our common stock; and
the number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in shares of our common stock.

Further, if we were to be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market and we are unable to obtain listing on another national securities exchange, our common stock would cease to be recognized as covered securities and we would be subject to delisting. We would then be entitled to appeal the determination to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel and request a hearing.

There can beregulation in each state in which we offer our securities. Moreover, there is no assurance that any actions that we will be abletake to regainrestore our compliance with the minimum bid price requirement would stabilize the market price or maintain compliance withimprove the other Nasdaq listing requirements. If we do not regain compliance with the Nasdaq continuing listing requirements, our common stock will be delisted from Nasdaq and it could be more difficult to buy or sell our securities and to obtain accurate quotations, and the priceliquidity of our common stock, could suffer a material decline. In addition, a delisting would impairprevent our ability to raise capital throughcommon stock from falling below the public markets, could deter broker-dealers from making a market inminimum bid price required for continued listing again, or otherwise seeking or generating interest in our securities and might deter certain institutions and persons from investing in our securities at all.prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements.
