1.DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Inotiv, Inc. and its subsidiaries and a variable interest entity (“VIE”) (“We,” “Our,” “Us,” the “Company,” and “Inotiv”) comprise a leading contract research organization specializing in nonclinical and analytical drug discovery and development services. The Company also manufactures scientific instruments for life sciences research, which it sells with related software for use by pharmaceutical companies, universities, government research centers and medical research institutions.

Basis of Presentation

The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and therefore should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020.2021. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended MarchDecember 31, 2021 and 2020 include all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods and of the Company’s financial position at MarchDecember 31, 2021. The results of operations for the three and six months ended MarchDecember 31, 2021 may not be indicative of the results for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2021.2022.

Certain prior period amountsThe acquisition of Envigo was transformational to the Company’s underlying business. As a result, certain reclassifications have been reclassifiedmade to prior periods in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to conform with current presentation, which more closely reflects management’s perspective of the business as it currently exists.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgements that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These include, but are not limited to, management estimates in the calculation and timing of revenue recognition, pension liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities and the related valuation allowance. Although estimates are based upon management’s best estimate using historical experience, current events, and actions, actual results could differ from those estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in reported results in the period in which they become known.

Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company, including all subsidiaries and a VIE it consolidates in accordance with GAAP. The Company consolidates a VIE, as a result of the Envigo acquisition. The VIE does not have a material impact to net assets or net income.  

The Company accounts for consistencynoncontrolling interests in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). ASC 810 requires companies with noncontrolling interests to disclose such interests as a portion of equity but separate from the Parent’s equity. The noncontrolling interests’ portion of net income (loss) is presented on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2021. As a result of the Envigo acquisition, certain policies have been added or adjusted to reflect our combined business.

Pension Costs

As a result of the Envigo acquisition, the Company has a defined benefit pension plan for one of its U.K. subsidiaries.

The projected benefit obligation and funded position of the defined benefit plan is estimated by actuaries and the Company recognizes the funded status of its defined benefit plan on its consolidated balance sheet and recognizes gains and losses. Prior service costs or credits that arise during the period are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. The Company measures plan assets and obligations as of the date of the Company’s year-end consolidated balance sheet; making assumptions to anticipate future events. The valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed has not yet been finalized as of December 31, 2021. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and subject to change, including the valuation of the unfunded defined benefit plan obligation, among other items.

Additional information about certain effects on net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and transition assets or obligations are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements (see Note 13 – Defined Benefit Plan).

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) for the periods presented is comprised of consolidated net income (loss) plus the change in the cumulative translation adjustment equity account and the adjustments, net of tax, for the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effectactuarial gains (losses) in connection with the Company’s defined benefit plan.

Foreign Currencies

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of each entity are recorded at the rates of exchange on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in currencies other than the functional currency are translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date and the related transaction gains and losses are reported in the consolidated statements of operations, in Operating income. The Company records gains and losses from re-measuring intercompany loans separately in Foreign exchange gain (loss) in the consolidated statement of operations.

The results of operations. operations of subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate, assets and liabilities are translated at period-end exchange rates, capital accounts are translated at historical exchange rates, and retained earnings are translated at the weighted average of historical rates. Translation adjustments are excluded from the determination of net income and are recorded as a separate component of equity within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated financial statements.

Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $49.0 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses.

On November 4, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2008 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”)Company’s Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to replaceincrease the 1997 Outside Director Stock Option Plannumber of authorized Common Shares from 20,000,000 shares, consisting of 19,000,000 Common Shares and 1,000,000 Preferred Shares, to 75,000,000 shares, consisting of 74,000,000 Common Shares and 1,000,000 Preferred Shares.

The amendment was to promote the Company’s long-term interests by providing a means of attracting and retaining officers, directors and key employees. The Compensation Committee administered the Plan and approved the particular officers, directors or employees eligible for grants. Under the Plan, employees were granted options to purchase common shares at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common shares of the end of the trading day prior to the date of the grant. Generally, options granted vest and become exercisable in three equal installments commencing one year from date of grant and expire upon the earlier of the employee’s termination of employment, or ten years from the date of grant. Restricted shares are valued as the average of the high and loweffective on the day prior to the date of the grant. The Plan is described more fully in Note 9 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020.

Stock Issued in Connection with Acquisitions

During the three months ended December 31, 2021, 8,374,138 common shares were issued in relation to acquisitions. See Note 10 for further discussion of consideration for each acquisition.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company expenses the estimated fair value of stock options over the vesting periods of the grants. The Company recognizes expense for awards subject to graded vesting using the straight-line attribution method. The Company adopted a change in accounting policy effective October 1, 2020 for forfeitures. Prior to October 1, 2020, stock-based compensation expense was reduced for estimated forfeitures, and if necessary, an adjustment was recognized in future periods if actual forfeitures differed from those estimates. The accounting change was made prospectively; therefore, stock-based compensation for equity grants subsequent to October 1, 2020, will not be reduced for estimated forfeitures as expense will be adjusted in the period that a forfeiture occurs. The Company feelsbelieves that this accounting change will more accurately account for expense relating to forfeitures. The Company has assessed the cumulative effect of this change in accounting policy and has deemed the impact to be immaterial; therefore, an adjustment has not been recorded to beginning retained earnings. Stock based compensation expense for the three and six months ended March 31,December 30, 2021 and 2020, was $278$23,932 and $460,$181, respectively.

The provisions of the instrument.Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Topic defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and provides the disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. This ASU departsTopic also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the incurred loss model which meansCompany.

Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

The embedded conversion feature of the convertible senior notes is subject to fair value measurement on a recurring basis as they include unobservable and significant inputs in determining the fair value.  The Company utilized a single factor trinomial lattice model to determine the related fair value of the embedded derivative convertible feature of the notes at November 4, 2021, and the inputs used included a volatility of 40.0%, a bond yield assumption of 10.44% and a remaining maturity period of 5.95 years.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company early adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06)”. The update simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by reducing the number of accounting models and limiting the number of embedded conversion features separately recognized from the primary contract. The guidance also includes targeted improvements to the disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings per share. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.

10.         BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with guidance found in ASC 805, Business Combinations. The guidance requires consideration given, including contingent consideration, assets acquired, and liabilities assumed to be valued at their fair market values at the acquisition date. The guidance further provides that: (1) in-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset; (2) acquisition costs will generally be expensed as incurred, (3) restructuring costs associated with a business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and (4) changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense. ASC 805 requires that any excess of purchase price over fair value of assets acquired, including identifiable intangibles and liabilities assumed, be recognized as goodwill.

Litigation

Envigo is a defendant in a purported class action and a related action under California’s Private Attorney General Act of 2004 (“PAGA”) brought by Jacob Greenwell, a former employee of Envigo, on June 25, 2021 in the Superior Court of California, Alameda County. The complaints allege that Envigo violated certain wage and hour requirements under the California Labor Code. PAGA authorizes private attorneys to bring claims on behalf of the State of California and aggrieved employees for violations of California’s wage and hour laws. The class action complaint seeks certification of a class of similarly situated employees and the award of actual,

25

consequential and incidental losses and damages for the alleged violations. The PAGA complaint seeks civil penalties pursuant to the California Labor Code and attorney’s fees. The Company intends to vigorously defend these claims.

The Company is party to certain other legal actions arising out of the normal course of its business. In management's opinion, none of these actions will have a material effect on the Company's operations, financial condition or liquidity. No form of proceedings has been brought, instigated or is known to be contemplated against the Company by any government agency.

Government Investigations

During the period from July through December 2021, one of Envigo’s U.S. facilities was inspected on several occasions by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (“USDA”). USDA issued inspection reports with findings of non-compliance with certain USDA laws and regulations. Envigo formally appealed certain of the findings. USDA has indicated it intends to conduct a formal investigation. The inspections and/or the investigation could lead to enforcement action resulting in penalties that could include a temporary restraining order or injunction, civil and/or criminal penalties, and/or license suspension or revocation. As of December 31, 2021, no investigation has been initiated.

On June 15, 2021, Envigo Global Services, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company acquired in the Envigo acquisition, was served with a grand jury subpoena issued by the Department of Justice in Miami, Florida requiring the production of documents related to the importation into the United States of live non-human primates originating from or transiting through China, Cambodia and/or Vietnam from April 1, 2014 through March 28, 2019.

Recent Developments and Executive Summary

During the recent periods,period, we have undertaken significant internal and externalcontinued to focus on our growth initiatives. Through March 31, 2021, we acquired the business of Seventh Wave Laboratories, LLC, in July 2018 (the “Seventh Wave Acquisition”), undertook theinitiatives, which are (1) strategic acquisitions, (2) expansion of our facilities in Evansville, Indiana, which we began using for operations in Marchexisting and acquired businesses, and (3) startup of 2020, acquirednew services. As a result, the toxicology businessCompany has gained momentum on its path to being a comprehensive provider of Smithers Avanza on May 1, 2019 (the “Smithers Avanza Acquisition”), acquiredpreclinical research services, while adding a highly complementary research model platform through the preclinical testing businessstrategic acquisition of Pre-ClinicalEnvigo.  Our full spectrum solutions now span two segments: Discovery and Safety Assessment, or DSA, and Research Models and Services, as well as related real property, on December 1, 2019 (the “PCRS Acquisition”), and obtained funding to support these initiatives and other improvementsor RMS. The acquisition of Envigo was transformative to our laboratories, facilities and equipment in order to support future growth and enhance our scientific capabilities, client service offerings and client experiences.

Business Overview

·On April 30, 2021, the Company refinanced its debt arrangement with First Internet Bank of Indiana, to, among other things, raise additional debt capital to fund portions of the cash consideration for the HistoTox Labs Acquisition and the Merger. The Company also secured a commitment for approximately $5,000 of additional debt financing to be used in connection with the exercise of the Company’s option to buy its St. Louis facility for approximately $4,700 and to complete associated expansion, contingent on the Company’s receipt of related business incentives.

As a result of the strategic Envigo acquisition, which added a complementary research model platform, our full spectrum solutions now span two segments: Discovery and Safety Assessment, or DSA, and Research Models and Services, or RMS.

DSA

Our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were positively impacted by increasesDSA segment specializes in salesproviding nonclinical and gross margins attributable to internal growth the Company has experienced in the Service business. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, we saw an increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue compared to the same quarter in the prior year due to higher expenses for recruiting and relocation, higher compensation, including non-cash stock compensation, new systems and transaction costs related to the HistoTox Labs and Bolder BioPATH acquisitions. The financial results were positively impacted by the Products segment of the business as expense reductions were implemented in last half of fiscal year 2020 which improved margins.

Notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic, we have maintained our operations. As part of the “essential critical infrastructure” industry, we believe we continue to have a special responsibility to maintain business continuity and a normal work schedule to the greatest extent practicable. We are doing the important work of supporting our clients in their efforts towards drug discovery and development, including working with multiple clients, at our multiple sites, on a variety of therapy or vaccine candidates for COVID-19 and many other lifesaving medicines.

Our team has implemented measures to promote a safe working environment and mitigate risk related to COVID-19, including allowing for work-from-home arrangements where possible, while continuing to support each other and our clients. Among other initiatives related to COVID-19, the Company applied for and accepted funds from the SBA Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) as part of the CARES Act. The PPP loan was received in April 2020 in the amount of $5,051. The funds were used over the eight weeks following the receipt of the funds for payroll, utility and rent expenses, in step with our business continuity measures and as allowed under the PPP. The Company applied for forgiveness of the PPP loan in the amount of $4,851, which represents qualified expenses. The PPP debt is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet.

We believe that the HistoTox Labs Acquisition and the Merger, along with the remaining net proceeds from our recent public offering and the refinancing of our indebtedness with First Internet Bank to be used for internal expansion initiatives, will drive significant long-term value for our customers and shareholders.  

Business Overview

The Company providesanalytical drug discovery and development services to the pharmaceutical, chemical, and medical device industries, and sells analytical instruments to the pharmaceutical development and contract research industries. Our mission is to provide drug and product developers with superior scientific research and innovative analytical instrumentation in order to bring revolutionaryfocus on bringing new drugs and productsmedical devices through the discovery and preclinical phases of development, all while increasing efficiency, improving data, and reducing the cost of taking new drugs to market quicklymarket. Inotiv is committed to supporting discovery and safely.development objectives as well as helping researchers realize the full potential of their critical R&D projects, all while working together to build a healthier and safer world. Our strategy is to provide services that will generate high-quality and timely data in support of new drug and product approval or expand their use. Our clients and partners include pharmaceutical, biotechnology, biomedical device, academic and government organizations. We provide innovative technologies and products and a commitment to quality to help clients and partners accelerate the development of safe and effective drugs and products and maximize the returns on their research and development investments. We believe that we offer an efficient, variable-cost alternative to our clients’ internal drug and product development programs. Outsourcing development work to reduce overhead and speed product approvals through the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”("FDA") and other regulatory authorities is an established alternative to in-house product development efforts. We derive our revenues from sales of our research services and instruments, both of which are focused on evaluating drug and product safety and efficacy. The Company hasWe have been involved in the research of drug and products to treat diseases in numerous therapeutic areas for over 4547 years since itsour formation as a corporation organized in Indiana in 1974.

1974, under the name Bioanalytical Systems, Inc. On March 18, 2021, we changed our name from Bioanalytical Systems, Inc. to Inotiv, Inc.

We support both the non-clinical and clinical development needs of researchers and clinicians for primarily small molecule drug candidates, but also includingprovide services to biotherapeutics and devices.device companies. We believe that our scientists have the skills in analytical instrumentation development, chemistry, computer software development, pharmacology, histology, pathology, physiology, medicine, surgery, analytical chemistry, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology to make the services and products we provide increasingly valuable to our current and potential clients. Our principal clients are scientists engaged in analytical chemistry, pharmacology, drug safety evaluation, clinical trials, drug metabolism studies, pharmacokinetics and basic research from small start-upstartup biotechnology companies to some of the largest global pharmaceutical companies. We are committed to bringing scientific expertise, quality and speed to every drug discovery and development program to help our clients develop safe and effective life-changing therapies.

Developments within the industries we serve have a direct, and sometimes material, impact on our operations. Currently, many large pharmaceutical companies have major “blockbuster”"blockbuster" drugs that are nearing the end of their patent protections. This puts significant pressure on these companies to discover, acquire or develop new drugs with large market opportunity, and to re-evaluate their cost structures and the time-to-market of their products. Contract research organizations have benefited from these developments, as the

pharmaceutical industry has turned to out-sourcingoutsourcing to both reduce fixed costs and to increase the speed of research and data development necessary for new product applications. The number of significant drugs that have reached or are nearing the end of their patent protection has also benefited the generic drug industry. Generic drug companies provide a significant source of new business for CROs as they develop, test and manufacture their generic compounds.

A significant portion of innovation in the pharmaceutical industry is now driven by smaller, venture capital funded drug discovery companies. Many of these companies are “single-molecule”"single-molecule" entities, whose success depends on one or a few innovative compound.compounds. While several biotech companies have reached the status of major pharmaceutical companies, the industry is still characterized by numerous smaller entities. These developmental companies generally do not have the resources to perform much of their research within their organizations and are therefore increasingly dependent on the CRO industry for both their research and for guidance in preparing their regulatory submissions. These companies have provided significant new opportunities for the CRO industry, including the Company.Inotiv. We believe that the Company iswe are ideally positioned to serve these clients as they look for alternatives to the large CROs that cater primarily to the large pharmaceutical company segment of the marketplace.

RMS

Our RMS segment breeds, imports and sells research-quality animal models for use in laboratory tests, manufactures and sells standard and custom diets, distributes bedding and enrichment products, and provides other services associated with these products. We are the second largest commercial provider of research models and services globally, and our predecessors have been supplying research models since 1931. With over 130 different species and strains, we are a global leader in the production and sale of the most widely used rodent research model strains, among other species. We maintain production facilities, including barrier and isolator facilities, in the U.S., U.K., mainland Europe, and Israel.

Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rates for the three months ended MarchDecember 31, 2021 and 2020 were (2.09) %13.33% and (2.15) %,(9.89)% respectively. The expensebenefit (expense) recorded for each period was $15$12,785 and $11, respectively,($33), respectively. The benefit from income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was primarily related to deferred tax liabilities established as part of the acquisition of Envigo, which resulted in a release of valuation allowance, as well as, the impact on tax expense of certain book to tax differences on the deductibility of certain transaction costs and non-deductibility of the loss on fair value remeasurement of the embedded derivative component of the convertible notes. The expense from income taxes in the first quarter of 2021 relates primarily to certain credits that arise when deferred tax liabilities that are created by indefinite-lived assets cannot be used as a source of taxable income to support the realization of deferred tax assets for valuation allowance purposes. The tax expense associated with such certain credits is required to be recorded.

The termsinclude the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the Notes, are subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) the Company’s failure to send certain notices under the Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) the failure by the Company or the Guarantor to comply with certain covenants in the Indenture relating to the ability of the Loan call for repaymentCompany or the Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the principalassets of the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, and accrued interestits subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by the Company or the Guarantor in its other obligations or agreements under the LoanIndenture or the Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in eighteen installmentsaccordance with the Indenture; (v) certain defaults by the Company, the Guarantor or any of $283 beginningtheir respective subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $20,000; (vi) the rendering of certain judgments against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective subsidiaries for the payment of at least $20,000, where such judgments are not discharged or stayed within 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective significant subsidiaries; and (viii) the guarantee of the Notes ceases to be in full force and effect (except as permitted by the Indenture) or the Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under its guarantee of the Notes.

If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to the Company or the Guarantor (and not solely with respect to a significant subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or noteholders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may elect, at its option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the Notes.

In accordance with ASC 815, at issuance, the Company evaluated the convertible feature of the Notes and determined it was required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative and did not qualify for equity classification. The convertible feature of the Notes is subject to fair value remeasurement as of each balance sheet date and is valued utilizing level three inputs as described below.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company early adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06)”. The update simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by reducing the number of accounting models and limiting the number of embedded conversion features separately recognized from the primary contract. As a result of the approval for the increase in authorized shares on November 16, 20204, 2021 (See Note 2 – Equity), the convertible note conversion rights met all equity classification criteria in ASC 815. As a result, the derivative liability was remeasured as of November 4, 2021 and continuing monthly untilreclassified out of long-term liabilities and into additional paid-in capital.

We have applied for forgivenessfair value of the loanembedded derivative as of November 4, 2021 which resulted in a fair value measurement of $88,576 and a loss on remeasurement included in other income (loss) for the amountthree-months ended December 31, 2021 of $4,851.

24

$56,714. The embedded derivative liability of $88,576 was then reclassified to additional paid-in capital in accordance with ASC 815.

On January 28, 2015, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Cook Biotech, Inc. The lease agreement has and will provide the Company with additional cash in the range of approximately $50 per month during the first year of the initial term to approximately $57 per month during the final year of the initial term.

The Company’s sources of liquidity for fiscal 2021 are expected to consist primarily of cash generated from operations, cash on-hand, additional borrowings available under our Credit Agreement, as refinanced on April 30, 2021, an additional commitment from FIB for approximately $5,000 of financing to be used in connection with the exercise of the Company’s option to buy its St. Louis facility for approximately $4,700 and to complete associated expansion, contingent on the Company’s receipt of related business incentives, and remaining net proceeds from our recent public offering. Research services are capital intensive. The investment in equipment, facilities and human capital to serve our markets is substantial and continuing. Rapid changes in automation, precision, speed and technologies necessitate a constant investment in equipment and software to meet market demands. We are also impacted by the heightened regulatory environment and the need to improve our business infrastructure to support our operations, which will necessitate additional capital investment. Our ability to generate capital to reinvest in our capabilities and to obtain additional capital if and as needed through financial transactions is critical to our success. Sustained growth will require additional investment in future periods. Positive cash flow and access to capital will be important to our ability to make such investments. Management believes that the resources described above will be sufficient to fund operations, planned capital expenditures and working capital requirements over the next twelve months.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates while conducting normal business operations as a result of ongoing financing activities. As of December 31, 2021, our debt portfolio was reliant on reference rates. Based on our interest rate exposure at December 31, 2021, assumed debt levels throughout the next 12 months, a one-percentage-point increase in interest rates would result in an estimated $1,673 pre-tax reduction in net earnings over a one-year period.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We operate on a global basis and have exposure to some foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations for our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

While the financial results of our global activities are reported in U.S. dollars, our foreign subsidiaries typically conduct their operations in their respective local currency. The principal functional currencies of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are the Euro, British Pound and Israeli Shekel.

Fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rates of the countries in which we do business will affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. As the U.S. dollar strengthens against other currencies, the value of our non-U.S. revenue, expenses, assets, liabilities, and cash flows will generally decline when reported in U.S. dollars. The impact to net income as a result of a U.S. dollar strengthening will be partially mitigated by the value of non-U.S. expenses, which will decline when reported in U.S. dollars. As the U.S. dollar weakens versus other currencies, the value of the non-U.S. revenue, expenses, assets, liabilities, and cash flows will generally increase when reported in U.S. dollars.

A smaller reporting company is not requiredhypothetical 10% change in the foreign exchange rates applicable to provide the information requiredour business would change our December 31, 2021 cash balance by this Item 3.approximately $1,000 and our revenue by approximately $6,500.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be disclosed timely, is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely fashion. In designing and evaluating such controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management is necessarily required to use judgment in evaluating controls and procedures.

Management performs periodic evaluations to determine if our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, which resulted in a determination by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of MarchDecember 31, 2021.

On December 15, 2021, the Company's management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors concluded that, due to a failure to properly account for certain tax attributes related to an acquisition that occurred in the Company's third fiscal quarter, the Company's previously issued unaudited interim financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 (the "Original Quarterly Report") should no longer be relied upon. The Company’s management, together with the Audit Committee, determined that the Company’s financial

36

statements and other financial data as of and for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021 included in the Original Quarterly Report should be restated and the Company issued restated financials for the period in the Form 10-Q/A filed on December 21, 2021. In connection with the restatement, management reevaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021 and concluded that, in light of the error described above, a material weakness existed in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and that certain of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2021. Because the error was not discovered until after the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and minimal remedial steps had been taken prior to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2022, management concluded that the same material weakness in the Company's internal control over financial reporting and deficiency in the Company's disclosure controls and procedures that existed at September 30, 2021 continued to exist at December 31, 2021.

Management has begun and plans to continue to devote significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of its internal control over financial reporting and to provide processes and controls over the research and understanding of the tax impact of acquisitions that qualify as stock transactions for tax purposes. While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance these processes to better evaluate our research and understanding of the nuances of the tax impact of acquisitions that qualify as stock transactions for tax purposes. We plan to include providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding the tax impact of acquisitions that qualify as stock transactions for tax purposes. We also plan to re-assess our non-audit third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding application of accounting guidance related to the tax issues and engage more experienced advisers as appropriate. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the secondfirst quarter of fiscal 20212022 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Litigation

There wereEnvigo is a defendant in a purported class action and a related action under California’s Private Attorney General Act of 2004 (“PAGA”) brought by Jacob Greenwell, a former employee of Envigo, on June 25, 2021 in the Superior Court of California, Alameda County.  The complaint alleges that Envigo violated certain wage and hour requirements under the California Labor Code. PAGA authorizes private attorneys to bring claims on behalf of the State of California and aggrieved employees for violations of California’s wage and hour laws. The class action complaint seeks certification of a class of similarly situated employees and the award of actual, consequential and incidental losses and damages for the alleged violations. The PAGA complaint seeks civil penalties pursuant to the California Labor Code and attorney's fees.  The Company intends to vigorously defend these claims.

The Company is party to certain other legal actions arising out of the normal course of its business. In management's opinion, none of these actions will have a material effect on the Company's operations, financial condition or liquidity. No form of proceedings has been brought, instigated or is known to be contemplated against the Company by any government agency.

Government Investigations

During the period from July through December 2021, one of Envigo’s U.S. facilities was inspected on several occasions by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (“USDA”). USDA issued inspection reports with findings of non-compliance with certain USDA laws and regulations.  Envigo formally appealed certain of the findings. USDA has indicated it intends to conduct a formal investigation. The inspections and/or the investigation could lead to enforcement action resulting in penalties that could include a temporary restraining order or injunction, civil and/or criminal penalties, and/or license suspension or revocation. As of December 31, 2021, no material changes duringinvestigation has been initiated.

On June 15, 2021, Envigo Global Services, Inc., a subsidiary of the second quarterCompany acquired in the Envigo acquisition, was served with a grand jury subpoena issued by the Department of fiscal 2021Justice in Miami, Florida requiring the production of documents related to our disclosure in Item 3the importation into the United States of our Form 10-K for fiscal 2020.live non-human primates originating from or transiting through China, Cambodia and/or Vietnam from April 1, 2014 through March 28, 2019.  The Company is cooperating with the Department of Justice.

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS

Before investing in our securities you should carefully consider the risks described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020,2021, including those disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” appearing in Item 1A of Part I of the Form 10-K, as well as the information contained in our subsequent Quarterly Reports.10-K. Realization of any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.

25

The risks described in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q from time to time are not the only risks we face. New risk factors or risks that we currently deem immaterial emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor to assess the impact such risk factors might have on our business, financial condition and operating results, or the extent to which any such risk factor or combination of risk factors may impact our business, financial condition and operating results.

ITEM 2 – UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The HistoTox Labs Acquisition and the Merger may present many risks, and we may not realize the strategic and financial goals that were contemplated at the time we entered into the PurchaseOn October 4, 2021, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger among the Company, Greek Merger Agreement.

Risks we may face in connection withSub, Inc., Plato BioPharma, Inc. and Shareholder Representative Services, LLC, the HistoTox Labs Acquisition and the Merger (together, the “Acquisitions”) include:

·We may not realize the benefits we expect to receive from the Acquisitions, such as anticipated synergies.

·We may have difficulties managing Inotiv – Boulder HTL’s and/or Inotiv Boulder’s services or retaining key personnel from HistoTox Labs and/or Bolder BioPATH.

·The Acquisitions may not further our business strategy as we expect, we may not successfully integrate HistoTox Labs and/or Bolder BioPATH as planned, there could be unanticipated adverse impacts on HistoTox Labs’ and/or Bolder BioPATH’s businesses, or we may otherwise not realize the expected return on our investments, which could adversely affect our business or operating results and potentially cause impairment to assets that we record as a part of the Acquisitions, including intangible assets and goodwill.

·Our operating results or financial condition may be adversely impacted by (i) claims or liabilities related to HistoTox Labs’ and/or Bolder BioPATH’s businesses including, among others, claims from U.S. regulatory or other governmental agencies, terminated employees, current or former customers or business partners, or other third parties; (ii) pre-existing contractual relationships of HistoTox Labs and/or Bolder BioPATH that we would not have otherwise entered into, the termination or modification of which may be costly or disruptive to our business; (iii) unfavorable accounting treatment as a result of HistoTox Labs’ and/or Bolder BioPATH’s practices; and (iv) intellectual property claims or disputes.

·Neither HistoTox Labs nor Bolder BioPATH was required to maintain an internal control infrastructure that would meet the standards of a public company, including the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The costs that we may incur to implement such controls and procedures may be substantial and we could encounter unexpected delays and challenges in this implementation. In addition, we may discover significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the quality of Inotiv – Boulder HTL’s and or Inotiv Boulder’s financial and disclosure controls and procedures.

Future sales of our common shares by us or our existing shareholders could cause our share price to decline.

Sales of a substantial number of our common shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common shares and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. Further, we have stock options outstanding. As of March 31, 2021, we had 11,181,506 outstanding common shares and 671,000 common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, of which approximately 3,200,954 shares and 240,500 shares underlying stock options are subject to restrictions on transfer under 90-day lock-up arrangements with the underwriter of our public offering. These shares will become eligible for public sale at the expiration of the lock-up period, subject to vesting requirements and volume limitations applicable to affiliates. If a substantial number of common shares, including common shares underlying outstanding stock options, are sold, or if it is perceived that they will be sold, in the public market, it could have an adverse impact on the market price of our common shares.

In addition, as part of the Merger, weCompany issued 1,588,235 common shares as consideration payable to the Bolder BioPATH equity holders. Following a one-year lock-up period from the closing of the Merger, such shares will be freely tradeable.

Furthermore, our directors and executive officers may in the future adopt written trading plans that are intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), under which they may in the future contract with a broker to sell our common shares. Sales of substantial amounts of our common shares in the public markets pursuant to new Rule 10b5-1 plans, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the market price of our57,587 common shares to decline. We are unable to predict the effect that sales may have onformer shareholders of Plato BioPharma, Inc. The shares were issued in reliance upon the prevailing market price of our common shares.

We have incurred significant additional indebtedness during recent periods, which may impair our ability to raise further capital or impact our ability to service our debt.

We have incurred significant additional indebtedness during recent periods, including in order to financeexemption from the HistoTox Labs Acquisition and the Merger and to support other corporate endeavors. Our additional indebtedness may impair our ability to raise further capital, including to expand our business, pursue strategic investments, and take advantage of financing or other opportunities that we believe to be in the best interestsregistration requirements of the Company and our shareholders. Our additional indebtedness may also impact our ability to service our debt and to comply with financial covenants and the other terms of our relevant credit arrangements, in which case our lenders might pursue available remedies up to and including terminating our credit arrangements and foreclosing on available collateral.

We may need additional capital, and any additional capital we seek may not be available in the amount or at the time we need it.

We anticipate utilizing additional debt financing in order to fund the exerciseSecurities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Company’s optionSecurities Act and Regulation D thereunder as sales by an issuer not involving any public offering.

On December 29, 2021, pursuant to buyan Asset Purchase Agreement among Robinson Services Incorporated, the owners of Robinson Services Incorporated and Envigo Global Services, Inc., the Company issued 70,633 of its St. Louis facility for approximately $4,700 and to complete associated expansion, contingent on the Company’s receipt of related business incentives.

In general, additional capital may be raised through the sale of common shares preferred equity or convertible debt securities, entry into debt facilities or other third-party funding arrangements. The sale of equity and convertible debt securities may result in dilution to our shareholders and those securities may have rights senior to those of our common shares. Agreements entered into in connection with such capital raising activities could contain covenants that would restrict our operations or require us to relinquish certain rights. Additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all. If we cannot timely raise any needed funds, we may be forced to reduce our operating expenses, which could adversely affect our ability to implement our long-term strategic roadmap and grow our business.

Our expected financing needs are based upon management’s estimates as to future revenue and expense. Our business plan and financing needs are subject to change based upon, among other factors, our ability to increase revenues and manage expenses. If our estimates of our financing needs change, we may need additional capital more quickly than we expect or we may need a greater amount of capital.

If securities or industry analysts issue an adverse opinion regarding our common shares, our share price and trading volume could decline. 

The trading market for our common shares is influenced by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If anyone of the analysts who may cover us adversely changes its recommendation regarding our commonowners of Robinson Services, Inc. The shares or provides more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors,were issued in reliance upon the trading priceexemption from the registration requirements of our common shares could decline. Ifthe Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as sales by an issuer not involving any analyst who may cover us were to cease coveragepublic offering.
