Note 3. Going Concern, Significant Risks and Uncertainties

Going Concern

The Company has experienced significant net losses and cash used in operations, and it expects to continue to incur net losses and cash used in operations for the near future as it works to increase market acceptance of its medical devices and wellness products. The Company has never been profitable and has incurred net losses and cash used in operations in each year since its inception.

TheSales to the United States Department of Veteran Affairs comprised 64.5%60.2% of the Company's revenue during the threenine months ended March 31, 2023.September 30, 2023. The Company expects that a majority of ourits remaining 2023 sales will be made pursuant to its qualifying contract under the Federal Supply Schedule, or FSS, which was secured by the Company in December 2018, as well as open market sales to individual facilities within the government channels. The FSS is scheduled to expire on January 15, 2024.2024. The Company intends to request anhas submitted a renewal application for extension of its qualifying contract under the FSS from the United States Department of VeteranVeterans Affairs Office of Procurement and Logistics, but there is no assurance the FSS will be renewed, if at all, or renewed at terms favorable to the Company.

The Company has historically funded its operations from the sale of its common stock. On July 31, 2023, the Company entered into a registered direct offering with certain institutional and accredited investors, and concurrent private placements with such investors and certain of the Company’s officers and directors, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $7.5 million after deducting the placement agent fees and expenses, and other offering expenses payable by the Company. See Note 8, Shareholders' Equity, Securities Purchase Agreements.

The Company’s expected cash requirements for the next 12 months and beyond are largely based on the commercial success of its products. The Company believes its cash and cash equivalents and anticipated revenue will enable it to fund its operating expenses, working capital, and capital expenditure requirements, as currently planned, through 12 months from the date of the accompanying financial statements. There are significant risks and uncertainties as to its ability to achieve these operating results. Due to the risks and uncertainties, the Company may need to reduce its activities significantly more than its current operating plan and cash flow projections assume in order to fund its operations beyond one year of the date the accompanying financial statements are issued. Therethere can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient cash flow and liquidity to fund its planned activities, which could force it to significantly reduce or curtail its activities and ultimately, potentially cease operations.

There is no assurance that the Company will generate sufficient funds through its operating results or financing activities, and accordingly, these These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’sCompany's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date theof these accompanying financial statements are issued. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


11


Concentration of Revenue Risks  

The Company earns a significant amount of its revenue (i) in the United States from the Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense ("VA/DoD") pursuant to its qualifying contract under the FSS and open market sales to individual Department of Veterans Affairs facilities, and (ii) in the United Kingdom from the National Health Service. The VA/DoD and National Health Service comprise those customers of the Company that each accountaccounted for 10% or more of total net sales during the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 and 2022. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the National Health Service accounted for 10% or more of total net sales. The following table reflects the respective concentration as a percentage of the Company's net sales: sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

Thus, each one-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred Stock was entitled to 1,000 votes.

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive securities. Due to their nominal exercise price of $0.001 per share, 613,314 pre-funded warrants are considered common stock equivalents and are included in weighted average shares outstanding in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations as of the closing date of the Company's July 2023 Securities Purchase Agreements. Restricted stock and unit awards, stock options, and warrants (other than the pre-funded warrants) have not been included in the diluted loss per share calculation as their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect.


The potential common stock equivalents that have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share consist of the following:

Valuation Information for Stock-Based Compensation

The fair value of each stock option award during the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 and 2022 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. ExpectedEffective July 1, 2023, expected volatility was based 100% on the Company's historical common stock volatility. For the periods presented below, and prior to July 1, 2023, expected volatility was based on historical common stock volatility of the Company’s peers. Beginning in December 2022, the Company began incorporating its historical common stock volatility at a weightingcomposite comprising of 50% of the total compositeCompany's historical common stock volatility; the remaining 50% was based on historical volatility rate. During the remainder of 2023, the Company will continue to evaluate the volatility rate used to value stock options.its peers. The risk-free interest rate was based on the average U.S. Treasury rate that most closely resembled the expected life of the related award. The expected term of the award was calculated using the simplified method. No dividend was assumed as the Company does not pay regular dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.

The weighted average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model in valuing stock options granted in the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 and 2022 are summarized in the table below.

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


You should read this section in conjunction with our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. As discussed in the section titledtitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” the following discussiondiscussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those under the caption "Risk Factors" in the aforementioned Annual Report and this Form 10-Q.


Note: Information concerning the shares of our common stock and related share prices in this Item 2 has been adjusted to reflect the 1- for-15 reverse split of our common stock that was made effective on February 15, 2023. (See Note 2 - "Basis“Basis of Presentation” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements).


Overview

We are a commercial stage bioelectronic medicine and wellness company dedicated to improving health through our non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (“nVNS”) technology platform. Our focus is the commercialization of medical devices for the management and treatment of certain medical conditions and the development and commercialization of consumer product offerings utilizing nVNS to promote general wellbeing and human performance in the United States and select overseas markets.

nVNS is a platform bioelectronic technology that modulates neurotransmitters and immune function through its effects on both the peripheral and central nervous systems. Our nVNS treatment is delivered through a proprietary high-frequency burst waveform that safely and comfortably passes through the skin and stimulates therapeutically relevant fibers in the vagus nerve. Various scientific publications suggest that nVNS works through several mechanistic pathways including the modulation of neurotransmitters.

Historically, vagus nerve stimulation or VNS, required an invasive surgical procedure to implant a costly medical device. This limitation has generally limited VNS from being used by anyone other than the most severe patients. Our medical devices and wellness products are self-administered and intended for regular or intermittent use over many years.

Our business is supported by our in-house capabilities spanning research and development, regulatory affairs and compliance, sales and marketing, product testing, assembly, fulfillment, and customer support. We derive revenues from the sale of medical devices and wellness products in the United States and select overseas markets. We have two principal product categories:

 • Handheld, personal use medical devices for the management and treatment of certain medical conditions; and

Handheld, personal use medical devices for the management and treatment of certain medical conditions; and

          • Handheld, personal use consumer product offerings utilizing nVNS technology to promote general wellbeing and human performance.

We believe our nVNS treatment may be used in the future to effectively treat additional medical conditions, promote general wellbeing, or improve human performance.


20



Our goal is to be a leader in non-invasive neuromodulation by using our proprietary nVNS platform technology to deliver better health. To achieve this, we offer multiple propositions:


Prescription gammaCore medical devices for the treatment of certain medical conditions such as primary headache;

Our Truvaga product for the support of general health and wellbeing; and

Our TAC-STIM product for human performance as defined by the United States Air Force Research Laboratory.

          • Truvaga for the support of general health and wellbeing; and

          • TAC-STIM for human performance as defined by the United States Air Force Research Laboratory.

Our gammaCore product is a prescription medical device currently FDA cleared for a variety of primary headache conditions. gammaCoreIt is available by prescription only and our flagship model, gammaCore Sapphire, is a portable, reusable, rechargeable and reloadable personal use option for patients to use at home or on the go. Prescriptions are written by a health care provider and dispensed from a specialty pharmacy, through the patient’s healthcare provider or fulfilled directly to certain patients directly from our facility in Rockaway, NJ. After the initial prescription is filled, access to additional therapy can be refilled for certain of our gammaCore productsmedical devices periodically through the input of a prescription-only authorization.

Our Truvaga product is a personal use consumer electronics wellness product that does not require a prescription and is available direct-to-consumer from electroCore at www.truvaga.com. Our Truvaga product is not intended for medical use.

Our TAC-STIM product is a form of nVNS for human performance and has been developed in collaboration with the United States Department of Defense Biotech Optimized for Operational Solutions and Tactics, or "BOOST" program.

In June 2023, we announced that our TAC-STIM product, had been selected to be a part of the Air Force Research Laboratories, or “AFRL”, Real-Time Assessing and Augmenting Cognitive Performance in Extreme Environments, or “A2PEX Grant Program. A2PEX is a five-year project led by the Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition, or “IHMC” that includes internationally recognized leaders in wearable technologies from industry and academia. The goal of A2PEX is to build a wearable system to sense, assess and augment cognitive performance in operational environments. Sensors developed by A2PEX partners will develop electrophysiological and biomarker sensors to assess Airmen stress/fatigue in extreme environments. electroCore’s proprietary TAC-STIM nVNS product has been commissioned by IHMC for integration into the A2PEX system with the goal of mitigating fatigue and augmenting performance.

We are exploring strategies to make thisour TAC-STIM product offering available to other branches of the active-duty military and certain human performance professionals in the United States and abroad.

19


Our TAC-STIM is available to professional organizations and is the subject of ongoing research at the United States Air Force Research Laboratory. TAC-STIMproduct is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, cure, mitigate, prevent, or treat a disease or condition.

Until 2021, we generallyWe have focused most of our historical sales efforts in two channels, the United States Department of Veterans Affairs and United States Department of Defense, or VA/DoD, and the United Kingdom utilizing our FDA cleared and CE marked product, gammaCore.gammaCore medical device.

21


The United States Department of Veteran Affairs comprised 64.5%60.7% and 60.2% of our revenue during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023.September 30, 2023, respectively. We expect that a majority of our 2023 sales will be made pursuant to our qualifying contract under the Federal Supply Schedule or FSS, which was secured by us in December 2018, as well as open market sales to individual facilities within the government channels. The FSS is scheduled to expire on January 15, 2024. We intend to request anhave submitted a renewal application for extension of our qualifying contract under the FSS from the United States Department of VeteranVeterans Affairs Office of Procurement and Logistics, but there is no assurance the FSS will be renewed, and if at all, or renewed at terms favorable to us. Our sales function in this channel is comprised of electroCore employees and independent contractors.

Sales under the Med Tech Funding Mandate, or MTFM, program for cluster headache in the UK comprised 9.46.5% and 7.8% of our revenue during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023. InSeptember 30, 2023, respectively. During the remainder of 2023, we plan on continued expansion under this program, as well as continue to utilize distribution partners to commercialize our nVNS technology in territories outside the United States and United Kingdom. In October 2023, we were notified by NHS Supply Chain that it intends to continue to include the gammaCore device within their framework agreement, commencing March 2024 through March 2026 with an option to extend for a further two years. In the remainder of 2023, we expect NICE to review the guidance document and any changes in recommendation or pricing may adversely impact our ability to work with NHS England on the MTFM program.

We believe there may be significant opportunities beyond these two areas. Specifically, we believe there ismay be a large commercial opportunity for our gammaCore medical device with additional insurance covered lives, cash pay, physician dispense, and direct-to-consumer approaches, along with wellness and human performance propositions through our Truvaga and TAC-STIM.TAC-STIM products. Therefore, induring the remainder of 2023, we will continue our investments to expand our efforts in these channels and markets.

We face a variety of challenges and risks that we will need to address and manage as we pursue our strategies, including our ability to develop and retain an effective sales force, achieve market acceptance of our gammaCore medical device among physicians, patients, and third-party payers, expand the use of our gammaCore medical device to additional therapeutic indications, and to develop our nascent wellness and human performance business.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with our commercialization efforts, as well as research and clinicalproduct development activities, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of increased expenses, or when, if ever, we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to increase sales of our products, we may not become profitable. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations.

Our expected cash requirements for the next 12 months and beyond are based on the commercializationcommercial success of our products and our ability to control operating expenses. There are significant risks and uncertainties as to our ability to achieve these operating results. Due to these risks and uncertainties, we may need to reduce our activities significantly more than our current operating plan and cash flow projections assume in order to fund operations for the next 12 months. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient cash flow and liquidity to fund our planned activities, which could force us to significantly reduce or curtail our activities and, ultimately, potentially cease operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. See “Liquidity Outlook.”

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The significant accounting policies and basis of presentation of our condensed consolidated financial statements are described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC on March 8, 2023 ("2022 Annual Report"), and in Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the condensed consolidated financial statements included within this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

The preparation of our financial statements is in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and other related disclosures. While we believe our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based on information presently available. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates due to changes in judgments, assumptions and conditions as a result of unforeseen events or otherwise, which could have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

The critical accounting policies, and the judgements, estimates, and assumptions associated with such policies, that we believe have the greatest potential impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in the section titled Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Part II of our 2022 Annual Report.

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 increased 46%128% as compared to the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2022. The increase of $881,000$2.5 million is due to an increase in net sales across all major channels including our prescription gammaCore medical devices sold in the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, U.S. commercial channel, and sales from outside the U.S. which includes licensing abroad; and revenue of $46,000. There was no licensing revenue in the comparable prior year period. We expect that the majority of remaining 2023 fiscal year revenue will continue to come from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Additionally, we expect revenues to expand from our cash pay propositions which include direct to physician models for traditional neurology headache specialists, as well as the wide range of medical providers who manage patients' headache conditions including primary care physicians, women's health, pain management, sports medicine, functional and integrative medicine professionals, as well as chiropractors, and PharmDs (Doctors of Pharmacy). In addition, we expect to generate additional revenue from sales of our nonprescription general well being and human performance Truvaga and TAC-STIM products.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased by $783,000$2.1 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2022Gross margin was 84%85% and 81%87% for the three months endeended September 30, 2023d March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our evolving commercial strategy has resulted in the launch of cash payment models under which we license a portion of our devices. The cost of the licensed device is being recognized as cost of goods sold over the estimated useful life of the device. There was no effect in the current quarter in the incremental increase in gross margin associated with the licensing of a portion of our devices, while there was a 9.0% incremental increase in the three months ended September 30, 2022. In recent quarters, we have sold an increasing number of longer duration therapy, resulting in a higher average selling price, as well as selling an increased number of refill kits with a lower cost of goods.


23


Research and Development

Research and development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $1.2 million decreased $368,000 as compared to the prior year period. This decrease in research and development expense was due to a decrease in compensation associated with cost cutting measures offset by our targeted investments to support the future iterations of our therapy delivery platform, including the use of our intellectual property around the delivery of smart phone-integrated and smart phone-connected non-invasive therapies.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administration expense of $6.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $1.1 million, or 19%, as compared to $5.7 million for the previous year period. This increase was primarily due to greater variable selling and marketing costs consistent with our increase in net sales. 

Other (Income) Expense

Other (Income) Expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was consistent with the comparable prior year period.

Net Sales

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased 80% as compared to the prior year period. The increase of $4.8 million is due to an increase in net sales across major channels including our prescription gammaCore medical devices sold in the U.S. and abroad; and revenue from the sales of our nonprescription Truvaga and TAC-STIM products, as well as increased prescription gammaCore medical device sales outside the United States. We expect that the majority of remaining 2023 fiscal year revenue will continue to come from our U.S. channels. The amount of revenue we recognize from the sale of our TAC-STIM product, however, may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year. Gross margin of 84% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was consistent with results for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our evolving commercial strategy has resulted in the launch of cash payment models under which we license a portion of our devices. The cost of the licensed device is being recognized as cost of goods sold over the estimated useful life of the device. The incremental increase in gross margin associated with the licensing of a portion of our devices was 6.7%1.8% and 6.9%8.0% in the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In recent quarters, we have sold an increasing amountnumber of longer duration therapy, resulting in a higher average selling price, as well as selling an increased number of refill kits with a lower cost of goods. In addition, favorable absorption of labor and overhead costs associated with the increased number of units sold contributed to the increase in gross margin. Gross profit and gross margin in the remainder of 2023 will be largely dependent on revenue levels, product mix, and any changes in the estimated useful lives of licensed devices.

Research and Development

Research and development expense increased by $321,000 or 8% for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 of $1.8 million increased by $875,000 compared to the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to targeted investments to support the future iterations of our therapy delivery platform, including the use of our intellectual property around the delivery of smart phone-integrated and smart phone-connected non-invasive therapies. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in compensation expense associated with cost cutting measures effected April 1, 2023. In the remainder of 2023, we plan to continue to invest in the next generation of our therapy delivery platform.platform, although we expect our level of investment to decrease during the remainder of the year.

In the remainder of 2023, we plan on continuing to make targeted investments in sales and marketing to support our commercial efforts, particularly around sales and marketing efforts for our cash pay propositions which include ecommerce stores, direct to physician models for traditional neurology headache specialists, as well as the wide range of medical providers who manage patients' headache conditions including primary care physicians, women's health, pain management, sports medicine, functional and integrative medicine professionals, as well as chiropractors, and PharmDs (Doctors of Pharmacy). across all major U.S. channels.

Other (Income) Expense

The increase in Other (Income) Expense is primarily due to rising interest rates. 

Benefit Fromfrom Income Taxes

We may be eligible, from time to time, to receive cash from the sale of our net operating losses under New Jersey's Department of the Treasury - Division of Taxation NOL Transfer Program. On January 10, 2023, we received a net cash amountpayment of approximately $211,000 from the sale of our New Jersey state net operating losses.

Investing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash used in investing activities was related to equipment purchases. No cash was provided by investing activities during the threenine months ended March 31, 2023 andSeptember 30, 2022.

Financing Activities

NoNet cash was provided by financing activities duringfor the threenine months ended MarchSeptember 30, 2023 was $7.5 million which was attributable to (i) our July 31, 2023 Securities Purchase Agreement (“First SPA”) in connection with a registered direct offering and 2022.concurrent private placement with certain institutional and accredited investors pursuant to which the Company issued and sold an aggregate of1,062,600shares of common stock, 613,314  pre-funded common stock purchase warrants that are exercisable upon issuance, and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of837,955shares of common stock and (ii) a Securities Purchase Agreement (“Second SPA”) in connection with a concurrent private placement with certain of the Company's officers and directors pursuant to which we issued and sold 169,968 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 84,982 shares of common stock.

Liquidity Outlook

In the remainder of 2023, we expect to continue to incur substantial negative cash flows from operations. We intend to continue to make targeted investments in sales and marketing, as well as the next generation of our therapy delivery platform.

As a result, we will need to seek additional funds in the future or curtail or forgo some or all such activities. If we seek to and are unable to raise funds on favorable terms, or at all, we may not be able to support our commercialization efforts or research and development activities, and the growth of our business may be negatively impacted. As a result, we may be unable to compete effectively.

We expect that a majority of our remaining 2023 sales will be made pursuant to our qualifying contract under the Federal Supply Schedule, or FSS, as well as open market sales to individual facilities within the government channels. The FSS is scheduled to expire on January 15, 2024. We intend to request anhave submitted a renewal application for extension of our qualifying contract under the FSS from the United States Department of VeteranVeterans Affairs Office of Procurement and Logistics, but there is no assurance the FSS agreement will be renewed, if at all, or renewed at terms favorable to us. In addition, other possible changes including those relating to the payer and competitive landscape, our commercialization strategy, our development activities, and regulatory matters, may occur beyond our control that would cause us to consume our available capital more quickly.

Even if

We have historically funded our operations from the sale of our common stock. As described immediately above, on July 31, 2023, we entered into a registered direct offering with certain institutional and accredited investors, and concurrent private placements with such investors and certain of our officers and directors, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $7.5 million after deducting the placement agent fees and expenses, and other offering expenses payable by us.

Our expected cash requirements for the next 12 months and beyond are not requiredlargely based on the commercial success of our products. We believe our cash and cash equivalents will enable us to curtail our activities sooner, our ability to executefund our operating plan beyond the nextexpenses, working capital, and capital expenditure requirements, as currently planned, through 12 months from the date theseof the accompanying financial statementsstatements. There are issued depends onsignificant risks and uncertainties as to our ability to increase revenue, controlachieve these operating expensesresults. Due to these risks and obtain additional funding from the sale of equity and or debt securities, a strategic transaction or otherwise. However, these alternatives may notuncertainties, there can be available to us on attractive terms, or at all. There is no assurance that we will generatehave sufficient cash flow and funding throughliquidity to fund our operating resultsplanned activities, which could force us to significantly reduce or the sale of securities or from a strategic transaction or otherwise, raisingcurtail our activities and, ultimately, potentially cease operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date these accompanying financial statements are issued. The accompanying Financial Statementsfinancial statements do not include any adjustment that might occurresult from the outcome of this uncertainty.

On January 18, 2022, we filed a Form S-3 registration statement, or the 2022 Shelf Registration Statement, with the SEC, for the issuance of common stock, preferred stock, warrants, rights, debt securities and units, which we refer to collectively as the Shelf Securities, up to an aggregate amount of $75.0 million. The 2022 Shelf Registration Statement was declared effective on January 25, 2022. The proposed maximum offering price per unit and the proposed maximum aggregate offering price per class of security will be determined from time to time by us in connection with the issuance by us of the securities registered under the 2022 Shelf Registration Statement. Until such time as the aggregate market value of our securities held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $75.0 million, the aggregate maximum offering price of all securities issued by us in any given 12-calendar month period pursuant to this and any of our other registration statements may not exceed one-third of the aggregate market value of our securities held by non-affiliates.

On February 13, Approximately $7.3 million of the securities issued or issuable pursuant to our July 31, 2023 we held a special meeting (the “Special Meeting”)Registered Direct Financing were issued pursuant to the 2022 Shelf Registration Statement. We have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our stockholders. AtCommon Stock on or before January 29, 2024, without the Special Meeting, our shareholders votedprior written consent of the lead institutional investors in the transactions conducted pursuant to approve an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation as amendedthe First SPA. We have also agreed generally not to effect a Reverse Stock Splitor enter into an agreement to effect any issuance of our ordinary shares (the “Reverse Stock Split”) atsecurities involving a ratio of not less than 1-for 5 and not more than 1-for-50, with such ratio and the implementation and timing of the Reverse Stock Split to be determined by our board of directors in its sole discretion. Following the Special Meeting, our board of directors approved a 1-for-15 Reverse Stock Split and our Certificate of Incorporation,Variable Rate Transaction, as amended was amended accordingly. The Reverse Stock Split became effective on February 15, 2023. The purpose of the Reverse Stock Split was to increase the per share trading price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. On March 6, 2023, we received a letter from Nasdaq confirming that our common stock had regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule, and as a result, our common stock continues to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Ifdefined in the future we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, such as the corporate governance requirements or the $1 Minimum Bid Price Rule, Nasdaq may take steps to delist our common stock.First SPA, until August 2, 2024.

The Reverse Stock Split of our common stock had the effect of reducing the number of shares of common stock outstanding. There can be no assurance that the value and liquidity of our common stock will not be adversely affected by the Reverse Stock Split, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise the additional capital that we may require or increase the dilutive impact of any such financing.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We develop our products in the United States and sell those products into several countries. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Most of our sales in Europe are denominated in British Pound Sterling and our license agreement with Teijin is denominated in Japanese Yen. As our sales in currencies other than the U.S. dollar increase, our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations may increase. In addition, changes in exchange rates also may affect the end-user prices of our products compared to those of our foreign competitors, who may be selling their products based on local currency pricing. These factors may make our products less competitive in some countries.
If the U.S. dollar uniformly increased or decreased in strength by 10% relative to the foreign currencies in which our sales were denominated, our net income would have correspondingly increased or decreased by an immaterial amount for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2023.
Our exposure to market interest rate risk is confined to our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The goals of our investment policy are preservation of capital, fulfillment of liquidity needs and fiduciary control of cash and investments. We also seek to maximize income from our investments without assuming significant risk. To achieve our goals, we may maintain a portfolio of cash equivalents and investments in a variety of securities of high credit quality. The securities in our investment portfolio, if any, are not leveraged, are classified as available for sale and are, due to their very short-term nature, subject to minimal interest rate risk. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure. Because of the short-term maturities of our cash equivalents, we do not believe that an increase in market rates would have any material negative impact on interest income recognized in our statement of operations. We have no investments denominated in foreign currencies and therefore our investments are not subject to foreign currency exchange risk. We contract with investigational sites, suppliers and other vendors in Europe and internationally. In addition, our license agreement requires payments to us to be denominated in Japanese Yen. We are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency rates in connection with these agreements. We do not hedge our foreign currency exchange rate risk.
All of the potential changes noted above are based on sensitivity analyses performed on our financial position as of March 31,September 30, 2023.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to us, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decision making regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure 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, as ours are designed to do, and we apply our judgment in evaluating whether the benefits of the controls and procedures that we adopt outweigh their costs.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of March 31,September 30, 2023 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31,September 30, 2023 were not effective due to the material weakness described below.

Management's Report in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During October 2023, a vendor notified us that it had not received a payment we made via wire transfer based on instructions the Company believed were sent by the vendor. We continue to investigate the matter, but our internal controls over vendor management, as designed, would not have timely prevented an unauthorized payment based on incorrect vendor information from occurring. As such, the Company has concluded that a material weakness exists in its internal controls over financial reporting. This material weakness did not result in any identified misstatement, and there were no changes to previously reported financial results.

Remediation Plan for the purposes statedMaterial Weakness

Management is committed to the remediation of the material weakness described above. In the fourth quarter of 2023, management has implemented and will continue to implement measures designed to ensure that the control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively.

Remediation efforts include but are not limited to (a) enhance processes and procedures around payment security, (b) verifying changes to vendor information on a timely basis, and (c) using alternate channels to verify changes to vendor payment information.

Management will test and evaluate the implementation of internal controls and revised processes to ascertain whether they are designed and operating effectively to provide reasonable assurance that they will prevent or detect a material error in our financial statements.

The material weakness will not be considered remediated, however, until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that controls are operating effectively.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

ThereExcept as described above, there was 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, that occurred during the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 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 

The information set forth in Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies of the condensed consolidated financial statements included with this quarterly report on Form 10-Q is incorporated here by reference to this Part II Item 1.

1.


Item 1A.
RISK FACTORS 


The risks describedYou should carefully consider the risk factors included in "Risk Factors" withinItem 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 Annual Report(Annual Report) filed with the SEC on March 8, 2023 and thisour Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 3, 2023 (“Q1 10-Q”), in addition to the following risk factor, and the other information in this report on Form 10-Q, including the section of this report titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our financial statements and related notes. If any of the events described in our Annual Report, Q1 10-Q, the following risk factor set forthand the risks described elsewhere in this Item 1A below, could materially and adversely affectreport on Form 10-Q occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed. This report on Form 10-Q also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of factors that are described in our Annual Report, Q1 10-Q, below and elsewhere in this report.

Updated Risk Factor

We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and determined that our disclosure controls were not effective. If we are unable to remediate this material weakness, or if we experience additional material weaknesses in the future, we may not be able to accurately or timely report our financial condition or results of operations and investors may lose confidence in our financial reports and the tradingmarket price of our common stock could decline.be adversely affected.

As a public company, we are required to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and implement and maintain internal control over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in such internal control. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we evaluate and determine the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Beginning with our second annual report following our IPO, for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, management has provided a report on internal control over financial reporting. The Risk Factors sectionSarbanes-Oxley Act also requires that our management report on internal control over financial reporting be attested to by our independent registered public accounting firm, to the extent we (i) are no longer an “emerging growth company,” as defined by the JOBS Act, and (ii) have annual revenues greater than $100 million in the 2022 Annual Report,most recent fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available. We do not expect to have our independent registered public accounting firm attest to our management report on internal control over financial reporting for so long as uwe are an emerging growth company or have annual revenues under $100 million. If and when we have to design and implement the internal control over financial reporting required to comply with this obligation, such process will be time consuming, costly, and complicated.

pdated inIn preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements for this Quarterly Report, on Form 10-remain currentwe determined that a material weakness in allour internal control over financial reporting existed relating to payment security controls and procedures, which weakness did not result in any identified material respects. These risk factors do not identify all risksmisstatement, nor any change to previously reported financial results. In addition, management determined that our disclosure controls were ineffective as of September 30, 2023 due to the existence of this material weakness. To remediate this material weakness, we face. Our operations could also be affected by factorsare undertaking efforts that include but are not presently knownlimited to, us(a) enhancing processes and procedures around payment security, (b) verifying changes to vendor information on a timely basis, and (c) using alternate channels to verify changes to vendor payment information. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that controls are operating effectively. We can give no assurance that this implementation will remediate this material weakness in our internal control or that material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future.

If we currently considerare unable to be immaterialremediate this material weakness, or if we experience additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to our operations. Due to risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, our past financial resultsmaintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be a reliable indicator of future performance and historical trends should not be usedable to anticipate resultsaccurately or trends in future periods. Refer also to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, including in the Forward-Looking Statements, MD&A, and Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements sections.


Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, including events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults, or non-performance by financial institutions or transactional counterparties, could adversely affecttimely report our business, financial condition or results of operations.


Events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance, or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, transactional counterparties, or other companiesoperations and investors may lose confidence in the financial services industry or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, have in the pastaccuracy and may in the future lead to market-wide liquidity problems. Most recently, on March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bankwas closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as a receiver. Similarly, on March 12, 2023, Signature Bank and Silvergate Capital Corp. were each swept into receivership. Later in March 2023, Credit Suisse was acquired by UBS following the intervention of Swiss regulatory authorities, and on May 1, 2023, First Republic Bank was closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation. Although we are not a borrower or party to any such instruments with these or any other financial institution currently in receivership, if we were to borrow money in the future and if any of our lenders or counterparties to any such instruments were to be placed into receivership, we may be unable to access such funds.


Although we assess our banking and customer relationships as we believe necessary or appropriate, our access to funding sources and other credit arrangements in amounts adequate to finance or capitalize our current and projected future business operations and product development could be significantly impaired by factors that affect us, the financial services industry or economy in general. These factors could include, among others, events such as liquidity constraints or failures, the ability to perform obligations under various types of financial, credit, or liquidity agreements or arrangements, disruptions or instability in the financial services industry or financial markets, or concerns or negative expectations about the prospects for companies in the financial services industry.


In addition, investor concerns regarding the U.S. or international financial systems could result in less favorable commercial financing terms, including higher interest rates or costs and stricter financial and operating covenants, or limitations on access to credit and liquidity sources, thereby making it more difficult for us to acquire financing on acceptable terms or at all. Any decline in available funding or access to our cash and liquidity resources could, among other risks, adversely impact our ability to meet our operating expenses, financial obligations or fulfill our other obligations, result in breachescompleteness of our financial and/or contractual obligations or result in violationsreports and the market price of federal or state wageour common stock could be adversely affected, and hour laws if, for example, we were unablecould become subject to obtain access to deposits used for payroll.
