SHARE CAPITAL | SHARE CAPITAL Preferred stock As of September 30, 2021, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, authorizes the Company to issue 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. There were no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The voting powers (if any), preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of any series of preferred stock will be set forth in a Certificate of Designation filed pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors. Common stock The number of shares of common stock authorized under the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation was proportionately reduced in connection with the Company's one-for-four reverse stock split in February 2021. On July 19, 2021, the Company held its annual meeting of stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"). Following the approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock at the Annual Meeting, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 75,000,000 to 150,000,000 shares, effective as of July 19, 2021. Accordingly, the Company is authorized to issue 150,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. The holders of common stock are also entitled to receive dividends whenever funds are legally available and when and if declared by the board of directors, subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of preferred stock outstanding. The Company has never declared any dividends on common stock. Issuance of stock On February 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (the "2019 Sales Agreement") with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., or Cantor Fitzgerald, to sell shares of the Company's common stock, from time to time, with aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $50.0 million through an at-the-market equity offering program under which Cantor Fitzgerald acted as the Company's sales agent. The issuance and sale of shares of common stock by us pursuant to the 2019 Sales Agreement were deemed an "at-the-market" offering under the Securities Act. Cantor Fitzgerald was entitled to compensation for its services equal to up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any shares of common stock sold under the 2019 Sales Agreement. From January 1, 2021 through January 25, 2021, the Company issued and sold 2,778,012 shares of common stock at a weighted average price per share of $9.76 pursuant to the 2019 Sales Agreement for $26.3 million in net proceeds. Effective as of January 25, 2021, the Company terminated the 2019 Sales Agreement. On August 12, 2021, the Company entered into a new sales agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald to sell shares of the Company's common stock, from time to time, with aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $50.0 million through an at-the-market equity offering program under which Cantor Fitzgerald will act as the Company's sales agent. The issuance and sale of shares of common stock by us pursuant to the Sales Agreement are deemed an "at-the-market" offering under the Securities Act. Cantor Fitzgerald is entitled to compensation for its services equal to up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any shares of common stock sold under the Sales Agreement. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company issued and sold 1,948,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average per share price of $1.57 pursuant to the Sales Agreement for $2.9 million in net proceeds. On January 26, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional and accredited investors for the sale of an aggregate of 5,274,261 shares of common stock of the Company, at a purchase price of $9.48 per share in a registered direct offering. The offering was completed on January 28, 2021 and the Company received approximately $46.8 million in net proceeds, after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. On June 9, 2020, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 7,776,875 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $7.40 per share. The net proceeds of the offering were approximately $53.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. Pursuant to the completion of the Merger, on March 9, 2020, the Company issued 36,550,335 shares to legacy Foamix shareholders. On April 6, 2020, pursuant to the terms of the CSR Agreement, the Company issued an additional 74,544,413 shares to legacy Foamix shareholders, adjusted retrospectively to 18,636,103 shares of common stock upon the reverse stock split effective February 12, 2021. Warrants In connection with entering into the Credit Agreement on July 29, 2019, Foamix issued to the lenders Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,100,000 of its ordinary shares, later exchanged to Warrants to purchase up to 1,980,660 shares of Menlo’s common stock, adjusted retrospectively to 495,165 shares of common stock upon the reverse stock split effective February 12, 2021. Upon the closing of the Merger, each Warrant received one CSR as described in Note 3- Business Combinations. The Warrants were exercisable immediately following the closing of the Credit Agreement, subject to the terms of the warrant, and are due to expire on July 29, 2026. Any Warrants left outstanding will be cashless exercised on the Warrants’ expiration date, if in the money. The exchange of Warrants from Foamix warrants to Menlo warrants and the additional CSR was accounted for as a modification, by analogy, from the modification’s guidance under ASC 260-10-S99-2. The Company assessed the significance of the modification of the Warrants by comparing the fair value of the Warrants immediately before and after the amendments. In its assessment, it also considered additional qualitative factors. The Company concluded that the change of terms was not significant. Therefore, the incremental fair value, in the amount of $41,000, of the modified Warrants over the original ones (as of modification date) was recognized in retained earnings as a deemed dividend to the Warrants holders in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Share-based compensation Equity incentive plans: Upon closing of the Merger, the Company adopted Foamix’s 2019 Equity incentive plan (the “2019 Plan”). As of September 30, 2021, 509,158 shares remain issuable under the 2019 Plan. In addition, the Company adopted the 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2018 Plan") in January 2018. In January 2020, the number of shares reserved under the 2018 Plan automatically increased by 750,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the terms thereof. As of September 30, 2021, 81,925 shares remain issuable under the 2018 Plan. Employee Share Purchase Plan: Upon closing of the Merger, the Company adopted Foamix’s Employee Share Purchase Plan ("ESPP") pursuant to which qualified employees (as defined in the ESPP) may elect to purchase designated shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of the common stock at the beginning or end of each semi-annual share purchase period (“Purchase Period”). Employees are permitted to purchase the number of shares purchasable with up to 15% of the earnings paid (as such term is defined in the ESPP) to each of the participating employees during the Purchase Period, subject to certain limitations under Section 423 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. As of September 30, 2021, 2,261,108 shares remain available for grant under the ESPP. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 42,989 shares were issued to employees pursuant to the ESPP. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, 61,031 Foamix ordinary shares were purchased by Foamix employees pursuant to the ESPP prior to the Merger. Such shares were later exchanged for 36,155 shares of the Company's common stock and one CSR in the Merger, adjusted retrospectively to 9,038 shares of common stock and one CSR upon the reverse stock split effective February 12, 2021. Options and RSUs granted to employees and directors: In the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company granted options and RSUs as follows: Nine months ended September 30, 2021 Award Exercise price Vesting period Expiration Employees and Directors: Options 1,686,405 $1.68-$11.08 1 year - 4 years 10 years RSUs 970,813 — 2 years - 4 years — Nine months ended September 30, 2020 Award Exercise price Vesting period Expiration Employees and Directors: Options 1,316,637 $5.84-$12.52 1 year - 4 years 10 years RSUs 647,427 — 1 year - 4 years — * All amounts and exercise prices for pre-Merger grants are presented following the exchange to Menlo options and RSUs at the Exchange Ratio described in Note 3-Business Combination. The fair value of options and RSUs granted to employees and directors during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $9.4 million and $11.8 million, respectively. The fair value of RSUs granted is based on the share price on the grant date. The fair value of options granted was computed using the Black-Scholes model. The underlying data used for computing the fair value of the options are as follows: Nine months ended 2021 2020 Dividend yield 0 % 0 % Expected volatility 68.38% - 69.38% 60.44% - 69.83% Risk-free interest rate 0.5% - 1.29% 0.31% - 1.26% Expected term 6 years 6 years Pursuant to the Merger, all outstanding options and RSUs granted by Foamix were exchanged for stock options and RSUs of Menlo’s common stock according to the Exchange Ratio. In addition, for each option and RSU the holder received a CSR as described in Note 3- Business Combination. This transaction was considered by the company to be a modification under ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. The modification did not affect the remaining requisite service period. As a result of the modification, for outstanding options and RSUs granted to Foamix employees and consultants, the Company recorded immaterial incremental compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020. As described in Note 3 - Business Combination, on April 6, 2020, pursuant to the terms of the CSR Agreement, each CSR was converted into 1.2082 shares of Menlo common stock, resulting in an effective Exchange Ratio in the Merger of 1.8006 shares of Menlo common stock for each Foamix ordinary share. The conversion was considered by the company to be a modification under ASC 718. As a result of the modification, for outstanding options and RSUs granted to Foamix employees and consultants, the Company recorded incremental compensation of $0.5 million and $1.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $1.1 million and $10.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021 there is $1.5 million of unrecognized incremental compensation expense related to the modification which will primarily be amortized using a graded vesting method over the next 2 years. Awards granted to holders who are no longer employed or providing services to the Company are accounted for in accordance with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging. Under this guidance, the awards are classified as a derivative liability because the award no longer exchanges a fixed amount of cash for a fixed number of shares. Accordingly, as of March 9, 2020 the Company reclassified $1.6 million from additional paid-in capital to derivative liability on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Prior to the reclassification of these awards as a liability instrument, the Company recorded an incremental compensation expense of $0.6 million due to the above mentioned modification in accordance with ASC 718. Subsequent to the reclassification of these awards as a liability instrument, the Company recorded incremental compensation expense of $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. There was no incremental compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. As described in Note 3 - Business Combination, on April 6, 2020, the Company announced that study MTI-105 and study MTI-106 did not meet their respective primary endpoint of demonstrating statistically significant reduction in pruritus in patients treated with serlopitant compared to placebo based upon a 4-point improvement responder analysis. Accordingly, on April 6, 2020, pursuant to the terms of the CSR Agreement, each CSR was converted into 1.2082 shares of Menlo common stock, resulting in an effective Exchange Ratio in the Merger of 1.8006 shares of Menlo common stock for each Foamix ordinary share. On April 6, 2020, the awards are exchangeable for a fixed amount of cash for a fixed number of shares and were remeasured to fair value and reclassified from derivative liability to additional paid-in capital. Prior to the Merger, Menlo recognized all expenses relating to awards outstanding as of the Effective Date. These awards were subject to acceleration upon the change of control per the previous Menlo stock option plan.
