Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Liquidity, Risks and Uncertainties The Companys operations are subject to a number of factors that can affect its operating results and financial condition. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the results of clinical testing and trial activities of the Companys product candidates; the ability to obtain regulatory approval to market the Companys products; competition from products manufactured and sold or being developed by other companies, the price of, and demand for, Company products; the Companys ability to negotiate favorable licensing or other manufacturing and marketing agreements for its products; and the Companys ability to raise capital. To date, the Company has not generated significant commercial revenues. Based on the current development plans for Neutrolin in both the United States (U.S.) and foreign markets (including the planned Phase 3 clinical trials in the U.S.) and on the current revenue assumptions for Neutrolin in approved markets, management believes that the existing cash will be sufficient to fund its operations for at least the next 12 months following the balance sheet date. The Companys continued operations, including the completion of its planned Phase 3 clinical trials for Neutrolin in hemodialysis and oncology/total parenteral nutrition patients in the U.S., will depend on its ability to raise additional capital through potential sources such as equity and/or debt financings, strategic relationships, out-licensing or distribution arrangements of its products and its ability to generate substantial revenue from sales of Neutrolin. However, the Company can provide no assurances that such financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, or that the Company will achieve substantial levels of revenue from sales of Neutrolin. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient capital or find strategic partners, there would be a material adverse effect on its business. Further, the Company expects to incur increases in its cash used in operations as it continues to commercialize Neutrolin, increases its business development activities, incurs additional legal costs to defend its intellectual property and seeks FDA approval of Neutrolin in the U.S. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Basis of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and CorMedix Europe GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits and other interest bearing accounts, the balances of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Short-Term Investments The Company determines the appropriate classification of marketable securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value. Fair values of the Companys investments are determined using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value that are considered temporary are reported net of tax in other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts and interest and dividends earned are included in income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The cost of investments for purposes of computing realized and unrealized gains and losses is based on the specific identification method. For declines in the fair value of equity securities that are considered other-than-temporary, impairment losses are charged to other (income) expense, net. The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments, including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost and, for equity securities, the Companys ability and intent to hold the investments. The Companys marketable securities are highly liquid and consist of U.S. government agency securities, high-grade corporate obligations and commercial paper with original maturities of more than 90 days. As of June 30, 2015, all of the Companys investments had contractual maturities which were less than one year. The following table summarizes the amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses and the fair value at June 30, 2015 of the Companys financial assets that are measured on a recurring basis: Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Losses Gross Unrealized Gains Fair Value Money Market Funds included in Cash Equivalents $ 8,582,883 $ - $ - $ 8,582,883 US Government Agency Securities 1,507,470 (360 ) - 1,507,110 Corporate Securities 10,876,000 (6,683 ) 1,539 10,870,856 Commercial Paper 999,111 - - 999,111 Subtotal 13,382,581 (7,043 ) 1,539 13,377,077 $ 21,965,464 $ (7,043 ) $ 1,539 $ 21,959,960 Fair Value Measurements The Companys financial instruments recorded in the consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment securities, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying value of certain financial instruments, primarily cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair values based upon the short-term nature of their maturity dates. The Company categorizes its financial instruments into a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets recorded at fair value on the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized as follows: ● Level 1 inputsObservable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. ● Level 2 inputs Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs). ● Level 3 inputsUnobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are supported by little or no market activity and are The following table provides the carrying value and fair value of the Companys financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2015: Fair Value Measurement at June 30, 2015 Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Money Market Funds $ 8,582,883 $ 8,582,883 $ - $ - US Government Agency Securities 1,507,110 - 1,507,110 - Corporate Securities 10,870,856 - 10,870,856 - Commercial Paper 999,111 - 999,111 - Subtotal $ 13,377,077 $ - $ 13,377,077 $ - $ 21,959,960 $ 8,582,883 $ 13,377,077 $ - Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions These condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars (USD), the reporting currency of the Company. For the financial statements of the Companys foreign subsidiary, whose functional currency is the EURO, foreign currency asset and liability amounts, are translated into USD at end-of-period exchange rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. Translation gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income (loss). The Company has intercompany loans between the parent company based in New Jersey and its German subsidiary. Effective October 1, 2014, the Company assessed and determined that the intercompany loans outstanding are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future and the nature of the funding advanced is of a long-term investment nature. As such, beginning October 1, 2014, unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency exchange transaction gain (loss) is the result of re-measuring transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity recording the transaction. Segment and Geographic Information The Company operates in one business segment. The Company reported revenues of $119,973 and $151,237 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

Prepaid Expenses Prepaid expenses consist of payments made in advance to vendors relating to service contracts for clinical trial development, manufacturing, preclinical development and insurance policies. These advanced payments are amortized to expense either as services are performed or over the relevant service period using the straight-line method. Inventories, net Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market on a first in, first out basis. Inventories consist of raw materials (including labeling and packaging), work-in-process, and finished goods, if any, for the Neutrolin product. Inventories consist of the following: June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 Raw materials $ 247,625 $ 293,976 Work in process 460,945 166,807 Finished goods 6,479 2,246 Total $ 715,049 $ 463,029 The Company maintained an inventory reserve of $175,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Accrued Expenses Accrued expenses consist of the following: June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 Professional and consulting fees $ 216,125 $ 225,726 Accrued payroll and payroll taxes 195,078 13,393 Market research 162,345 137,345 Monitoring program fees 80,013 82,861 Statutory taxes 65,773 34,548 Other 41,787 27,652 Total $ 761,121 $ 521,525 Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements Revenue Recognition Revenue Recognition. Deferred Revenue In August 2014, the Company entered into an exclusive distribution agreement (the Agreement) with Wonik Corporation, a South Korean company, to market, sell and distribute Neutrolin for hemodialysis and oncolytic patients upon receipt of regulatory approval in South Korea (the Territory). Upon execution of the Agreement, Wonik paid the Company a non-refundable $50,000 payment and will pay an additional $50,000 upon receipt of the product registration necessary to sell Neutrolin in the Territory. The term of the agreement commenced on August 8, 2014 and will continue for three years after the first commercial sale of Neutrolin in the Territory. The non-refundable up-front payment has been recorded as deferred revenue and will be recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the contractual term of the Agreement. Income (Loss) Per Common Share Basic loss per common share excludes any potential dilution and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, basic income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the number of weighted average common shares issued and outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding for the period, plus amounts representing the dilutive effect from the exercise of stock options and warrants and the conversion of convertible preferred stock, as applicable. The Company calculates dilutive potential common shares using the treasury stock method, which assumes the Company will use the proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants to repurchase shares of common stock to hold in its treasury stock reserves. However, since their effect is anti-dilutive, the Company has excluded potentially dilutive shares. The following potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock options granted to employees, officers and directors according to ASC No. 718, Compensation Stock Compensation (ASC 718). Under ASC 718, share-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and is recognized as expense net of expected forfeitures, over the employees requisite service period on a straight-line basis. Stock compensation expense is recognized by applying the expected forfeiture rate during the vesting period to the fair value of the award. The estimation of the number of stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from the Companys current estimates, compensation expense may need to be revised. The Company considers many factors when estimating expected forfeitures for stock awards granted to employees, officers and directors, including types of awards, employee class, and an analysis of historical forfeitures. The Company accounts for stock options granted to non-employees on a fair value basis using the Black-Scholes option pricing model in accordance with ASC 718 and ASC No. 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (ASC 505). The non-cash charge to operations for non-employee options with time based vesting provisions is based on the fair value of the options at the balance sheet date and amortized to expense over the related vesting period. Research and Development Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development costs include fees associated for operational consultants, contract clinical research organizations, contract manufacturing organizations, contract laboratory research organizations and contract central testing laboratories, licensing activities, clinical site fees, and allocated executive, human resources and facilities expenses, among others. The Company accrues for costs incurred as the services are being provided. |
