FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report) contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements are contained principally in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” All statements, other than statements of historical facts, contained in this Quarterly Report, including statements regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management, are forward-looking statements. Words such as, but not limited to, “anticipate,” “aim,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “design,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “suggest,” “strategy,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions or phrases, or the negative of those expressions or phrases, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements about:

•our ability to attain profitability;

•our estimates regarding our future performance, including without limitation, any estimates of potential future revenues;

•the rate and degree of market acceptance of Phexxi™ (lactic acid, citric acid and potassium bitartrate) vaginal gel;

•our ability to successfully commercialize Phexxi and continue to develop our sales and marketing capabilities;

•our strategic plans for our business;

•our estimates regarding expenses and capital requirements;

•our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations;

•our ability to continue as a going concern;

•the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including without limitation its impact on our business and commercialization of Phexxi;

•the potential for changes to current regulatory mandates requiring health insurance plans to cover U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared or approved contraceptive products without cost sharing;

•our ability to obtain or maintain third-party payer coverage and adequate reimbursement, and our reliance on the willingness of patients to pay out-of-pocket for Phexxi absent full or partial third-party payer reimbursement;

•our ability to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals to market and commercialize EVO100 for prevention of urogenital transmission of Chlamydia trachomatis infection (chlamydia) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection (gonorrhea) in women, or any other product candidate we may seek to develop;

•the success, cost and timing of our clinical trials;

•our top-line or initial clinical trial data which are subject to adjustment and revision;

•our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property position and our reliance on third party licensors;

•our ability to obtain additional patent protection for our product and product candidates;

•our dependence on third parties in the conduct of our clinical trials and for the manufacture of Phexxi and our product candidates;

•our ability to expand our organization to accommodate potential growth; and

•our ability to retain and attract key personnel.

To date, only one of our products, Phexxi, has been approved by the FDA. Our other current product candidates are investigational and thus have not been submitted to or approved by the FDA, and neither Phexxi nor our other product candidates have been approved by the European Commission or any other regulatory authority anywhere else in the world.

Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this Quarterly Report, we caution you that these statements are based on our projections of the future that are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, to differ. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Forward-looking statements should be regarded solely as our current plans, estimates and beliefs. You should read this Quarterly Report and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Quarterly Report and incorporated by reference herein completely and with the understanding that our actual results may be materially different from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in our forward-looking statements are discussed in Exhibit 99.2 (Risk Factors of Evofem Biosciences, Inc.) of our Current Report on Form 8-K, as filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on June 2, 2020. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make.

EVOFEM BIOSCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

On January 17, 2018, Neothetics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Neothetics), now known as Evofem Biosciences, Inc. (the Company), completed its merger (the Merger) with privately-held Evofem Biosciences Operations, Inc. (Private Evofem), in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated October 17, 2017, whereby Nobelli Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Neothetics, merged with and into Private Evofem, with Private Evofem surviving as Neothetics’ wholly-owned subsidiary. Unless otherwise noted, references in this report to “Evofem” and the “Company” refer to Evofem Biosciences, Inc. and its subsidiaries following the closing of the Merger.

Evofem is a San Diego-based, commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing innovative products to address unmet needs in women’s sexual and reproductive health, including hormone-free, woman-controlled contraception and protection from certain sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

The Company’s first commercial product, Phexxi™ (lactic acid, citric acid, and potassium bitartrate) vaginal gel, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on May 22, 2020 and is the first and only FDA-approved, hormone-free, woman-controlled, on-demand prescription contraceptive gel for women. The Company commercially launched Phexxi in September 2020. Evofem’s pipeline product candidate, EVO100, is being evaluated for the prevention of chlamydia and gonorrhea in women - two of the most pervasive sexually transmitted infections in the United States. Currently, there are no FDA-approved prescription products for the prevention of either of these dangerous infections.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The Company prepared the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) related to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.

The Company’s financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis, which include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP for annual audited financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 12, 2020 (the 2019 Audited Financial Statements).

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and statements of convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit for the periods presented. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 was derived from the 2019 Audited Financial Statements.

Reclassification

The Company has separated the presentation of selling and marketing expenses from the total general and administrative expenses in the current period condensed consolidated statement of operations. To conform prior year amounts to the current period presentation, totals of $3.8 million and $6.2 million were reclassified from general and administrative expenses to selling and marketing expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

Risks, Uncertainties and Going Concern

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities, in the normal course of business, and does not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Table of Contents

The Company’s principal operations have been related to research and development, including development of Phexxi, selling and marketing related activities for preparation of the commercial launch of Phexxi, as well as raising capital, recruiting personnel and establishing a corporate infrastructure to support a commercial product. The Company has recognized limited revenues since the commercial launch of Phexxi on September 8, 2020 and, as such, has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception. As described in Note 5- Convertible Notes and Note 11- Stockholders' Equity, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company received gross proceeds of $25.0 million from the issuance of convertible notes in the second quarter of 2020, net proceeds of approximately $103.7 million upon the sale and issuance of common stock from the underwritten public offering in June 2020, and $3.8 million from its “at the market” (ATM) program, net of commissions. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $86.7 million, working capital of $36.4 million and an accumulated deficit of $614.9 million.

The Company is subject to risks common to other life science companies in the development and early commercial stage including, but not limited to, uncertainty regarding the commercial success of Phexxi and the development of its pipeline product candidate, EVO100, potential disruption of its research and development and commercialization activities as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, lack of marketing and sales history, potential development by its competitors of new and competitive technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, market acceptance of Phexxi or any other future approved products, if any, product liability, protection of proprietary technology, ability to raise additional financing, and compliance with the FDA and other government regulations, including post marketing regulations. Management’s plans to meet its short- and long-term operating cash flow requirements include generating recurring product revenue and obtaining additional funding, such as through the issuance of its common stock, non-dilutive financings, or through collaborations or partnerships with other companies.

While the Company has recognized limited revenues since the launch of Phexxi in September 2020, the Company anticipates it will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future. When compared to the prior year, R&D expenses are expected to decrease in 2020 due to completion of the clinical phase of AMPREVENCE, the Phase 2b clinical trial of EVO100, in December 2019, partially offset by the initiation of EVOGUARD, the Phase 3 clinical trial of EVO100 in October 2020. Additionally, selling and marketing expenses are expected to increase significantly in 2020 due to pre-commercialization activities preceding the US commercial launch of Phexxi in September 2020 and the subsequent initiation of full commercialization activities post commercial launch through the remainder of 2020 and in future periods. When compared to the prior year, the Company expects general and administrative expenses to increase in 2020 as it hires additional personnel and it engages third parties to support the growth of our business. According to management estimates, liquidity resources as of September 30, 2020 are not sufficient to maintain its planned level of operations for the 12 months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

These circumstances and the uncertainties associated with the Company’s ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing on terms that are favorable to the Company, enter into collaborative agreements with strategic partners, and otherwise succeed in its future operations raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

If the Company is not able to obtain the required funding in the near term, through equity or debt financings or other means, or is unable to obtain funding on terms favorable to the Company, this will have a material adverse effect on its commercialization and development operations and strategic development plan for future growth. If the Company cannot successfully raise additional funding and implement its strategic development plan, the Company may be forced to make reductions in spending, including spending in connection with its commercialization activities, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible at a potentially lower amount than as recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements, suspend or curtail planned operations or cease operations entirely. Any of these could materially and adversely affect its liquidity, financial condition and business prospects and the Company would not be able to continue as a going concern.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto.

Significant estimates affecting amounts reported or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to: the assumptions used in measuring the revenue gross-to-net variable consideration items, the trade accounts receivable credit loss reserve estimate, the discount rate used in estimating the fair value of the lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities, the assumptions used in estimating the fair value of warrants and purchase rights issued, the useful lives of property and equipment, the recoverability of long-lived assets, clinical trial accruals, the assumptions used in estimating the fair value of stock-based compensation expense and in assessing the probability of achieving certain milestones associated with the performance-based restricted stock awards. These assumptions are more fully described in Note 3- Revenue R eco gnition, Note 5- Convertible Notes, Note 7- Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Note 8- Commitments and Contingencies, and Note

Table of Contents

12- Stock-based Compensation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and adjusts when facts and circumstances dictate. The estimates are the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and recorded expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results may materially differ from those estimates or assumptions.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker, who is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Company, in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The Company views its operations and manages its business in 1 operating segment.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Deposits in the Company’s checking, time deposit and investment accounts are maintained in federally insured financial institutions and are subject to federally insured limits or limits set by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. The Company invests in funds through a major U.S. bank and is exposed to credit risk in the event of default to the extent of amounts recorded on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant concentrations of credit risk on its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances due to the financial position of the depository institutions in which these deposits are held.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been several changes to the significant accounting policies that were described in Note 2 to the 2019 Audited Financial Statements during the third quarter of 2020. These changes include the Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance as described below, and also the accounting policy for revenue recognition, inventories, and the Company's election of fair value option (FVO) to account for certain financial liabilities as described in Note 3- Revenue Recognition, Note 4- Inventories, and Note 5- Convertible Notes, respectively.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of readily available cash in checking accounts, money market funds, and investments in fixed income debt securities with original maturities of less than three months. Restricted cash consists of cash held in monthly time deposit accounts and letters of credit, which are collateral for the Company’s credit cards, facility leases and fleet leases as described in Note 8- Commitments and Contingencies.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, reported within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019
Cash and cash equivalents	$	86,697	$	32,120
Restricted cash	337		386
Restricted cash included in other noncurrent assets	800		0
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash presented in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows	$	87,834	$	32,506

Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance

Trade accounts receivable are amounts owed to the Company by its customers for product that has been delivered. The trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoice amount, less prompt pay and other discounts, chargebacks, and an allowance for credit losses, if any. The allowance for credit losses is the Company’s estimate of losses over the life of the receivables. The Company evaluates forward looking economic factors and uses professional judgment to determine the allowance for credit losses, as Phexxi was commercially launched in September 2020 and historical data is not yet available. The credit loss reserves are reviewed and adjusted periodically.

Table of Contents

Trade accounts receivable are aged based on the contractual payment terms. When the collectability of an invoice is no longer probable, the Company will create a reserve for that specific receivable. If a receivable is determined to be uncollectible, it is charged against the general credit loss reserve or the reserve for the specific receivable, if one exists.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock and if-converted methods. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive and, therefore, basic and diluted net loss per share were the same for all periods presented. Potentially dilutive securities excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share are summarized in the table below.


	Three and Nine Months Ended September 30,

ASU No. 2020-06 will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the expected impact of ASU 2020-06 on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

3.Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its product, Phexxi, in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). The provisions of ASC 606 require the following steps to determine revenue recognition: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the product to a customer. In accordance with the Company’s contracts with customers, control of the product is transferred upon the conveyance of title, which occurs when the product is sold to and received by a customer. The

Table of Contents

Company’s customers are located in the United States and consist of wholesale distributors and a specialty retail pharmacy. Payment terms typically range from 45 to 66 days, include prompt pay discounts, and vary by customer. Trade accounts receivable due to the Company from contracts with its customers are stated separately in the balance sheet, net of various allowances as described in the Trade Accounts Receivable policy in Note 2- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

The amount of revenue recognized by the Company is equal to the amount of consideration that is expected to be received from the sale of product to its customers. Revenue is only recognized when it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur in future periods. To determine whether a significant reversal will occur in future periods, the Company assesses both the likelihood and magnitude of any such potential reversal of revenue.

Phexxi is sold to customers at the wholesale acquisition cost (WAC). However, the Company records product revenue, net of reserves for applicable variable consideration. These types of variable consideration items reduce revenue and include the following:

•Distribution services fees

•Prompt pay and other discounts

•Product returns

•Chargebacks

•Rebates

•Co-payment assistance

An estimate for each variable consideration item is made with each sale and is recorded in conjunction with the revenue being recognized. To calculate the variable consideration, the Company uses the expected value method. If the estimated amount is payable to a customer, it is recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable. If the estimated amount is payable to an entity other than a customer, it is recorded as a current liability. An estimated amount of variable consideration may differ from the actual amount. At each balance sheet date, these provisions are analyzed, and adjustments are made if necessary. Any adjustments made to these provisions would also affect net product revenue and earnings.

In accordance with ASC 606, the Company must make significant judgments to determine the estimate for certain variable consideration. For example, the company must estimate the percentage of end-users that will obtain the product through public insurance such as Medicaid or through private commercial insurance. To determine these estimates, the Company relies on historical sales data showing the amount of various end-user consumer types, inventory reports from the wholesale distributors and specialty pharmacy, and other relevant data reports. However, because Phexxi was launched in September 2020 this historical data is limited. The Company compensated for this lack of historical data with trend analysis, industry standard data, and professional judgment.

The specific considerations that the Company uses in estimating these amounts related to variable considerations are as follows.

Distribution services fees – The Company pays distribution service fees to its wholesale distributors and specialty pharmacy. These fees are a contractually fixed percentage of WAC and are calculated at the time of sale based on the purchase amount. The Company considers these fees to be separate from the customer’s purchase of the product, therefore, they are recorded in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Prompt pay and other discounts – The Company incentivizes its customers to pay their invoices on time through prompt pay discounts. These discounts are an industry standard practice and the company offers a prompt pay discount to each wholesale distributor customer. The specific prompt pay terms vary by customer and are contractually fixed. Prompt pay discounts are typically taken by the Company’s customers, so an estimate of the discount is recorded at the time of sale based on the purchase amount. Prompt pay discount estimates are recorded as contra trade accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Company may also give other discounts to its customers to incentivize purchases and promote customer loyalty. The terms of such discounts may vary by customer. These discounts reduce gross product revenue at the time the revenue is recorded.

Product returns – Customers have the right to return product that is within six months or less of the labeled expiration date or that is past the expiration date by no more than six months. Phexxi was commercially launched in September 2020 and there were no returns as of September 30, 2020. Due to the lack of historical data, the Company used professional judgment to estimate returns based on industry data for similar products. As time passes and historical data becomes available, the Company will begin to use historical sales and return data to estimate future product returns.

Table of Contents

Certain wholesale distributors also have the ability to return product that is related to the initial stocking order for the Phexxi product launch. The specific terms for this type of product return vary by the specific wholesale distributor agreement. Product return estimates and recorded as other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Chargebacks – Certain government entities and covered entities (e.g. Veterans Administration, 340B covered entities) will be able to purchase the product at a price discounted below WAC. The Company is currently in the process of finalizing agreements with these types of entities. The difference between the government or covered entity purchase price and the wholesale distributor purchase price of WAC will be charged back to the Company. The Company estimates the amount in chargebacks based on the expected number of claims and related cost that is associated with the revenue being recognized for product that remains in the distribution channel at the end of each reporting period. Estimated chargebacks are recorded as contra trade accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Rebates – The Company will be subject to mandatory discount obligations under the Medicaid and Tricare programs. The Company is currently in the process of finalizing these agreements with Medicaid and Tricare. The rebate amounts for these programs are determined by statutory requirements or contractual arrangements. Rebates are owed after the product has been dispensed to an end user and the Company has been invoiced. Rebates for Medicaid and Tricare are typically invoiced in arrears. The Company estimates the amount in rebates based on the expected number of claims and related cost that is associated with the revenue being recognized for product that remains in the distribution channel at the end of each reporting period. Rebate estimates are recorded as other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Co-payment assistance - The Company offers a co-payment assistance program to commercially insured patients whose insurance requires a co-payment to be made when filling their prescription. This is a voluntary program that is intended to provide financial assistance to patients meeting certain eligibility requirements. The Company estimates the amount of co-payment assistance based on the expected number of claims and related cost that is associated with the revenue being recognized for product that remains in the distribution channel at the end of each reporting period. Co-payment assistance estimates are recorded as other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

4.Inventories

Inventories, consisting of purchased materials, direct labor and manufacturing overheads, are stated at the lower of cost, or net realizable value. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates ending inventories for excess quantities, obsolescence, or shelf-life expiration. The evaluation includes an analysis of the Company’s current and future strategic plans, anticipated future sales, the price projections of future demand, and the remaining shelf life of goods on hand. To the extent that management determines there are excess or obsolete inventory or quantities with a shelf life that is too near its expiration for the Company to reasonably expect that it can sell those products prior to their expiration, the Company adjusts the carrying value to estimated net realizable value in accordance with the first-in, first-out inventory costing method.

5.Convertible Notes

On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase and Security Agreement (the Securities Purchase Agreement) with certain affiliates of Baker Bros. Advisors LP, as purchasers (the Purchasers), and Baker Bros. Advisors LP, as designated agent, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers (i) convertible senior secured promissory notes (the Baker Notes) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25.0 million and (ii) warrants to purchase shares of common stock (the Baker Warrants) in a private placement.

At the initial closing date of April 24, 2020 (the Baker Initial Closing), the Company issued and sold Baker Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million (the Baker First Closing Notes) and Baker Warrants exercisable for 3,073,770 shares of common stock (the Baker First Closing Warrants).

Following the Baker Initial Closing, the Purchasers had an option to purchase from the Company up to $10.0 million of Baker Notes (the Baker Purchase Rights) at the Purchasers’ discretion at any time prior to the Company receiving at least $100.0 million in aggregate gross proceeds from one or more sales of equity securities.

On June 5, 2020 (the Exercise Date), the Purchasers exercised the Baker Purchase Rights. At the second closing date of June 9, 2020, the Purchasers acquired the remaining Baker Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million (the Baker Second Closing Notes) and Baker Warrants exercisable for 2,049,180 shares of common stock (the Baker Second Closing Warrants). With the completion of the underwritten public offering in June 2020 as further discussed in Note 11- Stockholders' Equity, the conversion price of the Baker Notes and the exercise price of the Baker Warrants is $2.44. The Baker Warrants have a five-year term with a cashless exercise provision and are immediately exercisable at any time from their respective issuance date.

The Baker Notes have a five-year term, with no pre-payment ability. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Baker Notes (the Outstanding Balance) accrues at 10.0% per annum with interest accrued during the first year from the two respective closing dates recognized as payment-in-kind. Accrued interest beyond the first year of the respective closing dates are to be paid in arrears on a quarterly basis in cash or recognized as payment-in-kind, at the direction of the Purchasers. Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively, which is included in convertible notes payable on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020.

The Baker Notes are convertible at any time at the option the Purchasers at the aforementioned conversion price. The Baker Notes are callable by the Company on 10 days’ written notice beginning on the third anniversary of the Baker Initial Closing. The call price will equal 100% of the Outstanding Balance plus accrued and unpaid interest if the Company’s common stock as measured using a 30-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) is greater than the benchmark price of $4.99 as stated in the Securities Purchase Agreement, or 110% of the Outstanding Balance plus accrued and unpaid interest if the VWAP is less than such benchmark price. The Purchasers also have the option to require the Company to repurchase all or any portion of the Baker Notes in cash upon the occurrence of certain events. In a repurchase event, as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement, the repurchase price will equal 110% of the Outstanding Balance plus accrued and unpaid interest. In an event of default or the Company’s change of control, the repurchase price will equal to the sum of (x) 3 times of the Outstanding Balance plus (y) the aggregate value of future interest that would have accrued.

The Company's stockholders approved the issuance of the shares issuable upon conversion of the Baker Notes and the exercise of the Baker Warrants in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(b) and 5635(d) at its special meeting of stockholders held on June 18, 2020 (the Approval Date).

Table of Contents

The Company elected the FVO under ASC 825, Financial Instruments, for the Baker Notes as they are qualified financial instruments and are, in whole, classified as liabilities. Under the FVO, the Company recognized the hybrid debt instrument at fair value inclusive of embedded features. The Company also determined that the Baker Warrants and the Baker Purchase Rights were free standing financial instruments and were classified as liabilities at the time of issuance in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity (ASC 480) due to the required stockholders’ approval noted above.

Under the valuation methods as described in Note 7- Fair Value Financial Instruments, the Company recorded the following in the condensed consolidated financial statements related to the Baker Notes and Baker Warrants during the quarter ended June 30, 2020: (i) an aggregate of $58.1 million in convertible notes and an aggregate of $46.7 million for warrants and purchase rights liability at the Baker Initial Closing and Exercise Date; (ii) a $64.0 million loss on issuance of financial instruments recognized at the Baker Initial Closing and Exercise Date the condensed consolidated statement of operations; (iii) an aggregate $34.1 million change in fair value of financial instruments as a result of mark-to-market adjustments on the Baker Notes, Baker Warrants and Baker Purchase Rights recognized respectively at the Exercise Date, Approval Date and the quarter ended June 30, 2020, in the condensed consolidated statement of operations; (iv) a $15.8 million reclassification from purchase rights liability to the convertible notes and warrants liability on the Exercise Date; and (v) an $11.0 million reclassification from warrants liability to additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet on the Approval Date. In addition, the Company concluded that there was no change in the underlying instrument-specific credit risk between the issuance dates for the Baker Notes and September 30, 2020, and, therefore there was no change recognized in the fair value of the convertible notes associated with differences in credit risk that would be presented separately as a component of other comprehensive income.

Using the same valuation methods discussed in Note 7- Fair Value Financial Instruments, the Company recorded an aggregate $3.1 million change in fair value of financial instruments as a result of mark-to-market adjustments recognized on the Baker Notes at the quarter ended September 30, 2020 in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Baker Notes contain various customary affirmative and negative covenants agreed to by the Company. The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants at September 30, 2020. The Baker Notes also include customary events of default as set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, such that, in an event of default, the Purchasers will have the right to accelerate repayment of the aggregate loan balance then outstanding.

The Baker Warrants and the Baker Purchase Rights, and the Private Placement First Closing Warrants and the Private Placement Purchase Rights as discussed in Note 5- Convertible Notes and Note 10- 2019 Private Placement, respectively, were determined to be classified as liabilities. Therefore, they were stated at fair value at issuance and subject to mark-to-market at each reporting date until a subsequent event occurs that would change their classification. They were considered Level 3 instruments because the fair value measurement was based, in part, on significant inputs not observed in the market.

Baker Notes

The fair value of the Baker Notes issued as described in Note 5- Convertible Notes, and subsequent changes in fair value recorded at the September 30, 2020 reporting date, were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation-based model. Monte Carlo simulation was used to take into account several factors including the future value of the Company's common stock, a potential change of control event, the maturity term of the Baker Notes, the probability of an event of voluntary conversion of the Baker Notes, exercise of the put right, and exercise of the Company's call right.

Expected term (years)	4.9		6.9

Baker Purchase Rights and Private Placement Purchase Rights

The fair value of the Baker Purchase Rights, and the subsequent change in fair value of these rights upon exercise of such rights, was determined as the maximum of (i) the fair value of rights to purchase the additional $10 million Baker Notes and (ii) the fair value of the shares of on as-if converted basis, which was determined by the lattice model. The fair value of rights to purchase an additional 2,049,180 Baker Warrants was valued using a Geske option-pricing model. The Geske model was based on the applicable assumptions, including the underlying stock price, warrant exercise price, the exercise price of the rights to purchase the Baker Warrants, the term of the Baker Warrants, the term of the rights to purchase the Baker Warrants, the expected volatility of the Company’s peer group, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend.

The fair value of the Private Placement Purchase Rights issued in connection with the 2019 Private Placement, and the change in fair value of the Private Placement Purchase Rights as a result of the mark-to-market upon stockholder approval of the 2019 Private Placement, was determined using a combination of a lattice model and a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The lattice model was used to determine a range of future value of the Company's common stock. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was based on the applicable assumptions, including the future value of the Company's common stock as determined by the lattice model, warrant exercise price, time to expiration, expected volatility of our peer group, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend.

10.2019 Private Placement

On April 10, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with PDL BioPharma, Inc., a Delaware corporation (PDL), funds discretionally managed by Invesco Ltd. (Invesco) and funds managed by Woodford Investment Management Ltd. (WIM, collectively with Invesco and PDL, the 2019 Purchasers), providing for the issuance and sale to the 2019 Purchasers of an aggregate of up to $80 million of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the Private Placement Shares) at a purchase price of $4.50 per share, and warrants to purchase shares of common stock with an exercise price of $6.38 per share (collectively, the Private Placement Securities) in a private placement (the Private Placement) to be funded in up to two separate closings.

The first closing was completed on April 11, 2019 (the Private Placement First Closing), pursuant to which the Company (i) issued and sold to PDL 6,666,667 shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase up to 1,666,667 shares of common stock (the Private Placement First Closing Warrants) and (ii) provided to the 2019 Purchasers an option, but not an obligation, from the Company to issue and sell to each 2019 Purchaser the shares of common stock and warrants as specified in the aforementioned Securities Purchase Agreement during the period beginning on April 11, 2019 and ending on June 10, 2019 (the Private Placement Purchase Rights). The total consideration for the Private Placement First Closing was $30 million.

The second closing was completed on June 10, 2019 (the Private Placement Second Closing), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to PDL, Invesco and WIM (i) 6,666,667, 2,222,222 and 2,222,223 shares of its common stock, respectively and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 1,666,667, 555,556 and 555,556 shares of common stock (the Private Placement Second Closing Warrants), respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of $50 million. Shares of common stock issued to WIM included 1 voting share issued in connection with the issuance of its warrants.

The Company’s stockholders approved the Private Placement at its 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 5, 2019 (the Private Placement Approval Date).

The warrants have a 7-year term and will become exercisable at any time on or after the date that is six (6) months following their respective issuance dates. The Company determined the Private Placement First Closing Warrants were free standing financial instruments and a liability classified in accordance with ASC 480 due to the requirement to obtain stockholder approval pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b). The Company utilized the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of warrants at issuance and on the Private Placement Approval Date for the Private Placement First Closing Warrants, and recorded the following in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2019: (i) $3.6 million warrant liability at issuance; (ii) $3.3 million change in fair value of warrants in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as a result of mark-to-market on the Private Placement Approval Date; and (iii) $6.9 million reclassification from warrant liability to additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet on the Private Placement Approval Date.

The Private Placement Second Closing Warrants were determined to be free standing financial instruments and equity classified in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company utilized the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of warrants at issuance and recorded an estimated fair value of $12.7 million as additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Company also determined the Private Placement Purchase Rights were free standing financial instruments and liability classified in accordance with ASC 480 due to the stockholder approval provision noted above. As described in Note 7- Fair Value Financial Instruments, the Company utilized a combination of a lattice model and a Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of the Private Placement Purchase Rights at issuance and on the Private Placement Approval Date. The Company recorded the following in the condensed consolidated financial statements during the second quarter of 2019: (i) $3.2 million purchase rights liability at issuance for the purchase rights provided to PDL; (ii) $0.7 million loss on issuance of purchase rights at issuance in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the purchase rights provided to Invesco and WIM; (iii) $19.6 million change in fair value of purchase rights in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as a result of mark-to-market on the Private Placement Approval Date; and (iv) $22.8 million reclassification from purchase rights liability to additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet on the Private Placement Approval Date.

Upon completion of the Private Placement First Closing and Private Placement Second Closing, the Company received proceeds of approximately $28.2 million and $47.2 million, net of $1.8 million and $2.8 million in advisory fees to financial advisors, respectively, and used these proceeds for clinical research and development purposes, including resubmission of the New Drug Application for Phexxi to the FDA, commercialization activities, and for general corporate purposes.

Additionally, upon completion of the Private Placement Second Closing, the previously issued WIM Warrants and Reload Warrants (as defined below) to purchase up to 475,000 shares and 1,188,029 shares of common stock, respectively,

Table of Contents

were canceled. See Note 11- Stockholders' Equity for additional details on the Reload Warrants. The Company included such cancellation in valuing the purchase rights described above.

11.Stockholders' Equity

Warrants

On February 5, 2019, the Company entered into letter agreements (the Repricing Letter Agreements) with WIM and certain other holders of outstanding warrants to purchase common stock of the Company by exercising certain outstanding warrants. Upon execution of the Repricing Letter Agreements, investment funds affiliated with WIM exercised certain warrants received upon the completion of the Merger (WIM Warrants) to purchase an aggregate of 1,525,000 shares of common stock, and WIM and other holders of common warrants issued in the public offering in May 2018 (Public Offering Warrants) exercised their common warrants to purchase an aggregate of 851,062 shares of common stock at a reduced exercise price of $2.64 per share. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $6.3 million from these exercises.

The Company determined that the incremental fair value as a result of the modification to these warrants from the change of the exercise price was approximately $1.4 million and $0.5 million for the WIM Warrants and Public Offering Warrants, respectively, which were recorded as a change in fair value of warrants in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

In addition, on February 8, 2019 and per the terms of the Repricing Letter Agreements, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 1,188,029 shares of the Company’s common stock (Reload Warrants) to the holders' party to the Repricing Letter Agreements at an exercise price of $5.20 per share. The Company determined the Reload Warrants are free standing financial instruments and equity classified in accordance with ASC 480. Since the Reload Warrants were issued in addition to the reduced exercise price to induce the holders of WIM Warrants and common warrants to exercise their warrants, the Company determined the fair value of the Reload Warrants was also the incremental fair value as a result of the modification to the WIM warrants and common warrants exercised. To determine the fair value of the Reload Warrants, the Company utilized the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which resulted in an estimated fair value of the Reload Warrants of $2.5 million, which was recorded as additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and change in fair value of warrants in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

On June 10, 2019, upon the Second Closing of the Private Placement as discussed in Note 10- 2019 Private Placement, the remaining WIM Warrants to purchase up to 475,000 shares of common stock and all Reload Warrants were cancelled. Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,444,446 shares of common stock were issued in connection with the Private Placement at an exercise price of $6.38 per share in April and June 2019.

In April and June 2020, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement as discussed in Note 5- Convertible Notes, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 5,122,950 shares of common stock in a private placement at an exercise price of $2.44 per share.

As of September 30, 2020, warrants to purchase up to 10,426,107 shares of the Company’s common stock remain outstanding at a weighted average exercise price of $4.54 per share. These warrants are summarized below:

In addition, the Company granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 4,275,000 shares of its common stock at the Public Offering Price, less applicable underwriting discounts. The common stock issued in the Public Offering were registered pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC on November 18, 2019 and declared effective on December 2, 2019.

On June 10, 2020, the Company issued an additional 3,200,000 shares of common stock upon exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option and received proceeds from the exercise of $10.5 million, net of underwriting discounts.

At the Market (ATM) Program

In November 2019, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the Equity Distribution Agreement) with Piper Sandler & Co. (Piper Sandler), which provided the Company the ability to offer and sell shares of its common stock in ATM offerings (as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) having an aggregate offering price up to $50 million from time to time through Piper Sandler acting as sales agent. On June 2, 2020, in connection with the Public Offering discussed in Note 11- Stockholders’ Equity, the Equity Distribution Agreement was terminated. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company received proceeds of approximately $3.8 million in cash and cash equivalents (including $0.3 million that was included in other receivables in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019), net of commissions, from the sale of 676,656 shares of its common stock.

Stockholder Rights Agreement

On March 24, 2020, the Company entered into a rights agreement (the Rights Agreement) with Philadelphia Stock Transfer, Inc., as rights agent. In connection with the adoption of the Rights Agreement and pursuant to its terms, the Company’s board of directors authorized and declared a dividend of 1 right (each, a Right) for each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock to stockholders of record at the close of business on April 8, 2020 (the Record Date), and authorized the issuance of 1 Right for each share of common stock issued by the Company (except as otherwise provided in the Rights Agreement) between the Record Date and the Distribution Date (as defined below).

Each Right entitles stockholders to purchase from the Company, when exercisable and subject to adjustment, one one-thousandth of a share (a Unit) of Series A Preferred Stock (the Preferred Stock) at a purchase price of $17.50 per Unit (the Purchase Price). The Rights generally become exercisable (the Distribution Date) upon the earlier of (i) 10 business days

Table of Contents

following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (an Acquiring Person) has acquired or otherwise obtained beneficial ownership of 32% or more of the then‑outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the date of such public announcement, the Stock Acquisition Date), and (ii) 10 business days (or such later date as may be determined by the board of directors of the Company) following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group becoming an Acquiring Person. If a person becomes an Acquiring Person, then each holder of a Right will thereafter have the right to receive, upon exercise, Units of Preferred Stock or, at the option of the Company, shares of common stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash, property or other securities of the Company) having a value equal to two times the Purchase Price of the Right. If the Company is acquired in a merger or similar business combination transaction at any time after a person has become an Acquiring Person, each holder of a right (other than the Acquiring Person and certain related parties) will be entitled to purchase a similar amount of common stock of the acquiring entity.

12.Stock-based Compensation

Equity Incentive Plans

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, restricted stock awards (RSAs) and RSUs granted to employees and non-employee directors included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Research and development	$	291	$	202	$	1,689	$	859
Selling and marketing	347		564		2,006		1,101

Total	$	1,637	$	2,263	$	11,072	$	6,740

In September 2012, Private Evofem adopted the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2012 Plan) that provides for the issuance of RSAs, RSUs, or non-qualified and incentive common stock options to its employees, non-employee directors and consultants, from its authorized shares. In general, the options expire ten years from the date of grant and generally vest either (i) over a four-year period, with 25% exercisable at the end of one year from the employee’s hire date and the balance vesting ratably thereafter or (ii) over a three-year period, with 25% exercisable at the grant date and the balance vesting ratably thereafter. Upon completion of the Merger, Private Evofem’s 2012 Plan was assumed by the Company and awards outstanding under the 2012 Plan became awards for the Company’s common stock. Effective as of the Merger, no further awards may be issued under the 2012 Plan.

On September 15, 2014, Neothetics’ board of directors adopted, and stockholders approved, the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2014 Plan), which was amended and restated on each of May 2018 and February 26, 2019 (the Amended and Restated 2014 Plan), which among other things, increased the number of authorized shares under the 2014 Plan from 749,305 to an aggregate of 7,800,000 shares. On February 25, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved, subject to stockholder approval, and recommended its stockholders approve at the 2020 Annual Meeting, an additional 2,000,000 authorized shares reserved for issuance under the Amended and Restated 2014 Plan to an aggregate of 11,725,515 shares, including the Evergreen Shares discussed below. Such stockholder approval was obtained on May 12, 2020. Per the terms of the Amended and Restated 2014 Plan, the shares reserved will automatically increase on each January 1 through 2024, by an amount equal to the smaller of (i) 4% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31; or (ii) an amount determined by our board of directors. This provision resulted in an additional 1,925,515 shares (Evergreen Shares) added to the total number of authorized shares on January 1, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, there were 1,752,262 shares available to grant under the Amended and Restated 2014 Plan.

On July 24, 2018, upon the recommendation by the Compensation Committee, the Company's board of directors adopted the Evofem Biosciences, Inc. 2018 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan (the Inducement Plan), pursuant to which the Company reserved 250,000 shares for the issuance of equity awards under the Inducement Plan. The Inducement Plan was amended effective February 25, 2020 (the Amended Inducement Plan), which increased the number of authorized shares to an aggregate of 1,250,000 shares. The only persons eligible to receive awards under the Inducement Plan are individuals who satisfy the standards for inducement grant recipients under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(c)(4), generally, a person not previously an employee or director of the Company, or following a bona fide period of non-employment, as an inducement material to the individual’s entering into employment with the Company. As of September 30, 2020, there were 484,175 shares available to grant under the Inducement Plan.

Stock Options

There were 631,200 and 290,000 shares of stock options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 2,873,685 and 733,000 shares of stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Of the total stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, 1,027,400 were granted out of the share reserve increase approved by the board of directors under the Amended and Restated 2014 Plan on February 25, 2020 and were subject to the Company obtaining the requisite stockholder approval. This stockholder approval was obtained on May 12, 2020.

As of September 30, 2020, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for employees and non-employee stock options was approximately $10.9 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average remaining period of 2.4 years, assuming all unvested options become fully vested.

Summary of Assumptions

The fair value of noncash stock-based compensation for stock options granted to employees and non-employees was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the following weighted-average assumptions for options granted for the periods indicated.


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Expected volatility	90.7	%	76.0	%	82.4	%	76.1	%
Risk-free interest rate	0.4	%	1.5	%	0.6	%	1.9	%
Expected dividend yield	0	%	0	%	0	%	0	%
Expected term (years)	6.1		6.0		6.0		5.9

Expected volatility. The expected volatility assumption is based on volatilities of a peer group of similar companies whose share prices are publicly available. The peer group was developed based on companies in the biotechnology industry.

Risk-free interest rate. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of the stock option grants.

Expected dividend yield. The expected dividend yield assumption is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and has no present intention to pay cash dividends.

Expected term. The expected term represents the period options are expected to be outstanding. Because the Company does not have historical exercise behavior, it determines the expected term assumption using the practical expedient as provided for under ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, which is the midpoint between the requisite service period and the contractual term of the option.

Restricted Stock Awards and Units

There were zero and 150,000 shares of RSAs granted under the Amended and Restated 2014 Plan during the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 1,265,000 and 625,500 shares of RSAs granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively, to its executive management team and certain non-executive employees. The vesting conditions for 1,245,000 shares of RSAs granted during the first quarter of 2020 and 460,500 shares of RSAs granted during the first quarter of 2019 are connected to the Company’s achievement of certain performance milestones in the corresponding fiscal year (Performance-based RSAs).

For the Performance-based RSAs, (i) the fair value of the award was determined on the grant date, (ii) the Company assessed the probability of achieving each individual milestone associated with the award using reasonable assumptions based on the Company's operation performance towards each milestone and (iii) the fair value of the shares subject to the milestone is expensed over the implicit service period commencing once management believes the performance criteria is probable of being met. The non-performance based RSAs and RSUs were valued at the fair value on the grant date and the associated expenses will be recognized over the vesting period.

The Company recognized $0.1 million and $6.5 million stock-based compensation expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, for RSAs and RSUs. As of September 30, 2020, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the unvested RSAs and RSUs was approximately $0.3 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average remaining period of 1.3 years.

Table of Contents

On April 1, 2020, under the Amended and Restated 2014 Plan, the Company issued 150,000 RSUs to the former chairman of the Company’s board of directors in consideration for certain consulting services to be provided to the Company in connection with the 2019 Consulting Agreement, which were immediately forfeited upon the passing of Mr. Lynch.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In November 2014, Neothetics adopted the 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the 2014 ESPP), which initially authorized the issuance of 28,333 shares of common stock pursuant to purchase rights granted to employees, and an additional 258,672 evergreen shares were added to the total shares authorized on January 1, 2019. Following completion of the Merger, there was no enrollment in the 2014 ESPP. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, there were no shares of common stock purchased under the 2014 ESPP.

On May 7, 2019, the board of directors terminated the 2014 ESPP and approved a new 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the 2019 ESPP), which was approved by stockholders at the 2019 annual meeting held on June 5, 2019. The 2019 ESPP initially authorized the issuance of 500,000 shares of common stock pursuant to purchase rights granted to employees. In addition, the number of shares available for issuance under the 2019 ESPP will increase on January 1 of each year in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 1,000,000 shares, (ii) 2% of the shares of common stock outstanding on December 31, or (iii) such lesser number of shares as is determined by the board of directors. As of September 30, 2020, there were 1,354,968 shares of common stock reserved and available for issuance pursuant to the 2019 ESPP. The 2019 ESPP is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code).

The 2019 ESPP enables eligible full-time and part-time employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions of between 1% and 15% of eligible compensation during an offering period. A new offering period begins approximately every June 15 and December 15. At the last business day of each offering period, the accumulated contributions made during the offering period will be used to purchase shares. The purchase price is 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of the common stock on the first or the last business day of an offering period. The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be purchased by any participant during an offering period will be equal to $25,000 divided by the fair market value of the common stock on the first business day of an offering period. The current active offering period under the 2019 ESPP commenced on June 15, 2020 and will end on December 14, 2020. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, there were 0 and 67,454 shares of common stock purchased under the 2019 ESPP. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, there were 0 shares of common stock purchased under the 2019 ESPP.

The fair value of shares to be issued to employees under the 2019 ESPP is estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model at the grant date, which requires the use of subjective and complex assumptions, including (i) the expected stock price volatility, (ii) the calculation of the expected term of the award, (iii) the risk-free interest rate and (iv) the expected dividend yield. The following weighted average assumptions were used in the calculation of fair value of shares under the 2019 ESPP at the grant dates for the period indicated.


	Three and Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2020		2019
Expected volatility	108.9	%	72.5	%
Risk-free interest rate	0.2	%	2.2	%
Expected dividend yield	0	%	0	%
Expected term (years)	0.5		0.5

Overview

We are a San Diego-based, commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing innovative products to address unmet needs in women’s sexual and reproductive health, including hormone-free, woman-controlled contraception and protection from certain sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Our first commercial product, Phexxi™ (lactic acid, citric acid and potassium bitartrate), is the first and only hormone-free, prescription gel approved in the United States for the prevention of pregnancy. We are advancing our product candidate, EVO100 into Phase 3 clinical trials for the prevention of urogenital transmission of both Chlamydia trachomatis infection (chlamydia) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection (gonorrhea) in women (we refer to this trial as EVOGUARD).

Phexxi as a Contraceptive and Launch Strategies

On September 8, 2020, we launched Phexxi in the United States as the first and only U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved, hormone-free, woman-controlled, on-demand prescription contraceptive gel. Our ongoing comprehensive Phexxi launch strategy includes marketing and public relations awareness campaigns targeting the 21 million females in the United States of reproductive potential who are not using hormonal contraception, as well as certain identified target health care provider segments; payer outreach; implementation of the Phexxi Concierge Experience, our comprehensive tele-medicine support system; and execution of our consumer digital and media strategy.

We commercially launched Phexxi with a hybrid sales force comprising regional business representatives, regional business managers, a tele-sales communication platform, and a self-guided, virtual health care provider learning platform. Our sales force is comprised of experienced, successful health care sales representatives who are leveraging their established relationships to gain access to health care providers for Phexxi, even in the COVID-19 environment.

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandates that women must receive their contraception for no out-of-pocket cost, with at least one product in each of the 18 categories that defined by the ACA. In June 2020, Medi-Span and First Databank, two major drug information databases that payers consult for pricing and product information, granted Phexxi a new classification in their databases and pricing compendia as the first and only “Vaginal pH Modulator.” We believe that a new 19th category of contraception should be established for vaginal pH modulators such as Phexxi. We are working with the Office of Women’s Health and Health Resources and Services Administration to update their birth control tables accordingly.

Phexxi’s listing with Medi-Span and First Databank, coupled with our timely response to payer clinical requests and our clinical presentation, have enabled us to shorten typical payer review times, which can otherwise take up to 180 days. We had coverage for 55% of commercial lives at launch in September 2020, reflecting positive coverage determinations for Phexxi by many regional plans. Discussions with all major commercial payers are ongoing, and we expect most remaining insurers to review Phexxi before the end of the first quarter in 2021.

EVO100: Our STI Preventive Product Candidate

Evofem's lead product candidate, EVO100, is an antimicrobial vaginal gel under evaluation for the prevention of chlamydia and gonorrhea in women - two of the most pervasive sexually transmitted infections in the United States. Currently, there are no FDA‑approved prescription products for the prevention of either of these commonly reported sexually transmitted infections.

In December 2019, we reported positive top-line results from our double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2b clinical trial of EVO100 for the prevention of chlamydia infection and gonorrhea infection in women. The trial, known as AMPREVENCE, enrolled 860 women at 50 sites in the United States for a four-month interventional period followed by a one-month follow-up period. AMPREVENCE met both its primary and secondary endpoints of reducing the risk of chlamydia and gonorrhea infection, respectively.

In this landmark study, the infection rate of chlamydia among women who used EVO100 for the four-month study period was 4.9% (n=14/288) compared to 9.8% among those who used placebo for four months (n=28/287) (p=0.024), a relative risk reduction of 50% in the primary endpoint. Among the reported cases of gonorrhea infection, the infection rate was 0.7% in the EVO100 arm (n=2/280), compared to 3.2% in the placebo arm (n=9/277) (p=0.03), a relative risk reduction of 78% in the secondary endpoint. The study further demonstrated that EVO100 was generally safe and well tolerated. The number of adverse events was similar across both arms (7.2% for EVO100 and 7.5% for placebo) and no serious treatment-related adverse events were reported.

In October 2020, we initiated EVOGUARD for the prevention of urogenital transmission of both chlamydia infection and gonorrhea infection in women. This randomized, placebo-controlled pivotal trial is designed to enroll 1,730 women with prior infection of either chlamydia or gonorrhea and who are at risk for future infection with a 16-week interventional phase followed by a one-month follow-up period. We expect top-line EVOGUARD results in the second or third quarter of 2022.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), U.S. rates of infection for chlamydia and gonorrhea climbed in 2018 for the fifth consecutive year. Nearly 2.4 million domestic cases of these STIs were diagnosed in 2018, including 1.8 million newly reported chlamydia cases and approximately 580,000 newly reported gonorrhea cases. Based on these reports, an estimated 78 million women 18-65 years of age who are sexually active in the United States could be at a risk for one of these sexually transmitted infections. The CDC also reported that gonorrhea is increasingly becoming antibiotic resistant, making it much harder, or sometimes impossible, to treat. Currently, there are no FDA-approved prescription products for the prevention of either of these dangerous infections.

The FDA has granted Fast Track designation to EVO100 for the prevention of chlamydia in women and has designated it a Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) for the prevention of gonorrhea in women. QIDP designation provides several important potential advantages, including qualification for the FDA Fast Track program and longer market exclusivity, among others.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The current COVID-19 worldwide pandemic has presented substantial public health and economic challenges and is affecting our employees, customers, communities and business operations, as well as the U.S. and global economies and financial markets. International and U.S. governmental authorities in impacted regions are taking actions in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19, including issuing varying forms of “stay-at-home” orders, and restricting business functions outside of one’s home. In response, we have implemented a work-from-home policy for our employees. To date, our third-party manufacturer and suppliers have not experienced any interruptions or disruptions in their ability to manufacture Phexxi or to supply our manufacturer with raw materials, respectively. Nevertheless, the persistence of the COVID-19 pandemic may interrupt or disrupt such manufacture and/or supply. Further, if our sales force is unable to visit health care providers and/or if our patients are unable to visit health care providers, this may also materially adversely affect our ability to sell Phexxi commercially. Similarly, the timing of the completion of EVOGUARD may be affected by COVID-19 and COVID-19 may directly or indirectly impact the timeline for data readouts, initiation of, as well as monitoring, data collection and analysis and other related activities for EVOGUARD and our other potential clinical trials. Our current expectations for how we will enroll EVOGUARD are based on an assumption that clinical trial and healthcare activities begin to normalize in the fourth quarter of 2020. Therefore, our assumptions around completion timing may prove to be incorrect, in particular if COVID-19 continues to spread. In light of recent developments relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, and consistent with the FDA’s updated industry guidance for conducting clinical trials, clinical trials may be deprioritized in favor of treating patients who have contracted the virus or to prevent the spread of the virus. This may lead to clinical trial protocol deviations or to discontinuation of treatment for patients who are then enrolled in our trials. Any disruptions in the commercialization of Phexxi and/or the initiation or completion of our clinical trials, data analysis or readouts and/or any disruption in our supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic

Table of Contents

will directly or indirectly impact our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including as a result of new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain or treat it, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international markets.

Merger

As previously discussed, on January 17, 2018 (the Closing Date), Neothetics, Inc. (Neothetics), now known as Evofem Biosciences, Inc., completed its reverse merger (the Merger) with privately-held Evofem Biosciences Operations, Inc. (Private Evofem) in accordance with the terms of an agreement and plan of merger and reorganization, dated October 17, 2017.

Financial Operations Overview

Net Product Sales

We have recognized limited net product sales in the United States since the commercial launch of Phexxi in September 2020. If Phexxi is approved for commercial sale outside of the United States, we expect to out-license commercialization rights for Phexxi to one or more pharmaceutical companies or other qualified potential partners, or enter into collaborations for the commercialization and distribution of Phexxi, from which we may generate licensing revenue. However, we cannot forecast when such arrangements will be secured, if at all, and to what degree such arrangements would affect our development plans and overall capital requirements.

Cost of Goods Sold

The Company began to capitalize the inventory costs associated with Phexxi in April 2020 when it was determined that the inventory had a probable future economic benefit. These inventory costs include all purchased materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Prior to April 2020, costs incurred for the manufacture of Phexxi were recorded as research and development expenses.

In addition, we are obligated to pay quarterly royalty payments pursuant to the first amendment to the amended and restated license agreement with Rush University Medical Center dated March 27, 2014, as amended to date, which are a single-digit percentage of the gross amount we receive in the quarter less certain deductions incurred in the quarter based on a sliding scale. A minimum annual royalty amount of $100,000 is required commencing on January 1, 2021. Such royalty payment was immaterial for the three months ended September 30, 2020, and was included in the costs of goods sold in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Operating Expenses

Research and development expenses

Our research and development expenses primarily consist of costs associated with the clinical development of EVO100 and post approval changes for continuous improvement and expansion of manufacturing capabilities related to Phexxi. These expenses include:

•external development expenses incurred under arrangements with third parties, such as fees paid to clinical research organizations (CROs) relating to our clinical trials, costs of acquiring and evaluating clinical trial data such as investigator grants, patient screening fees, laboratory work and statistical compilation and analysis, and fees paid to consultants;

•costs to acquire, develop and manufacture clinical trial materials, including fees paid to contract manufacturers;

•costs related to compliance with drug development regulatory requirements;

•continuous improvements of manufacturing and analytical efficiency;

•on-going product characterization and process optimization;

Completion dates and costs for our clinical development programs may vary significantly for EVO100 and any future product candidate we may seek to develop and are difficult to predict. We anticipate that we will determine which programs and product candidates to pursue as well as the most appropriate funding allocations for each program and product candidate on an ongoing basis in response to the results of ongoing and future clinical trials, regulatory developments, and our ongoing assessments of the commercial potential of each current or future product candidate. We expect aggregate research and development expenses to decrease in 2020 due to completion of the clinical phase of AMPREVENCE in December 2019, partially offset by the initiation of EVOGUARD in October 2020. We will need to raise additional capital in the future to complete clinical development for EVO100 and any future product candidates.

The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a program owing to the following:

•per patient trial costs;

•the number of sites included in the trials;

•the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;

•the number of patients participating in the trials;

•the number of doses patients receive;

•potential additional safety monitoring or other trials requested by regulatory agencies;

•the phase of development of the product candidate; and

•the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.

Selling and marketing expenses

Our selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of pre-commercialization sales and marketing expenses prior to launch, the initiation of full commercialization activities in September 2020, and post-launch commercialization activities for the remainder of 2020, advertising, training, salaries, benefits, travel, noncash stock-based compensation expense, and other related costs for our employees and consultants as well as other costs associated with conducting commercial assessments for our product candidates.

We expect our selling and marketing expenses to increase significantly due to our sales force which was originally established in the third quarter of 2020, as we continue to develop and commence associated marketing campaigns and initiatives, and hire additional personnel to support full commercialization activities in the United States for Phexxi.

General and administrative expenses

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, travel, business development expense, investor and public relations expense, noncash stock-based compensation, and other related costs for our employees and consultants in executive, administrative, finance, legal and human resource functions. Other general and administrative

Table of Contents

expenses include facility-related costs not otherwise included in research and development or selling and marketing, and professional fees for accounting, auditing, tax and legal fees, and other costs associated with obtaining and maintaining our patent portfolio.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase as we hire additional personnel to support the growth of our business and commercialization activities.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) consists primarily of interest income, loss on issuance of financial instruments and change in fair value of financial instruments issued in various capital raise transactions. Loss on issuance of financial instruments was recognized upon issuance of such instruments to investors as they were determined as freestanding liability-classified financial instruments. The change in fair value of financial instruments was recognized as a result of mark-to-market adjustments for these financial instruments.

Research and development	$	11,104	$	18,798	$	(7,694)	(41)	%

The overall decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to a $6.8 million reduction in clinical trial costs associated with the completion of the clinical phases of AMPOWER in December 2018 and AMPREVENCE in December 2019. The overall decrease also resulted from a $2.6 million reduction in outside services associated with the Phexxi New Drug Application for the prevention of pregnancy that was resubmitted to the FDA in the fourth quarter of 2019. These aggregated decreases are partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in payroll related expenses and $0.8 million increase in noncash stock-based compensation due to increased headcount, and a $0.4 million increase in facilities costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

As of September 30, 2020, we had working capital of $36.4 million and an accumulated deficit of $614.9 million. We have financed our operations to date primarily through the sale of preferred stock and units, common stock, the issuance of convertible notes, interest earned on investments, cash received in the Merger, related-party advances and a note payable from Cosmederm Biosciences, Inc., a prior related party. At September 30, 2020, we had approximately $86.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. Our cash and cash equivalents include amounts held in checking accounts, money market funds, and investments in fixed income debt securities with original maturities of less than three months. Our short-term investments consist of held-to-maturity securities that mature in one year or less. We invest cash in excess of immediate requirements in accordance with our investment policy, which limits the amounts we may invest in any one type of investment and requires all investments held by us to maintain minimum ratings from Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations so as to primarily achieve liquidity and capital preservation.

We have incurred losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we received gross proceeds of $25.0 million from the issuance of convertible notes in the second quarter of 2020, net proceeds of approximately $103.7 million upon the sale and issuance of common stock from our Public Offering in June 2020, and net proceeds of $3.8 million from our ATM program.

We anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future. We expect research and development expenses to decrease in 2020 compared to 2019 due to completion of the clinical phase of our AMPREVENCE trial for EVO100 in December 2019, which is partially offset by the initiation of our EVOGUARD trial in October 2020. We expect selling and marketing expenses to increase significantly in 2020 and beyond due to the hiring of our commercial sales force that was originally established in the third quarter of 2020, and as we develop and commence associated marketing campaigns and initiatives, including our direct-to-consumer programs, which are designed to drive update of and revenue from Phexxi. Lastly, we expect general and administrative expenses to increase in 2020 as we hire additional personnel and engage third parties to support the growth of our business and the commercialization of Phexxi in the United States. According to management estimates, our liquidity resources as of September 30, 2020 are not sufficient to maintain our planned level of operations for the next 12 months. In addition, the uncertainties associated with our ability to obtain additional equity financing on terms that are favorable to us, enter into collaborative agreements with strategic partners and succeed in our future operations, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The opinion of our independent registered public accounting firm on our audited financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Future reports on our financial statements may include an explanatory paragraph with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2020 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 appearing in this Quarterly Report do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue our operations.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused us to delay the commercial launch of Phexxi until September 2020 and impacted the terms on which we have been able to raise funds. Our ability to raise additional funds, and the terms on which those funds may be raised, will be dependent, in part, on how successful the launch of Phexxi is and whether we are able to gain revenue traction prior to raising such additional funds. If the COVID-19 pandemic disrupts or negatively impacts the commercialization of Phexxi, our ability to raise additional funds may be negatively impacted, or we may not be able to obtain such funding on terms favorable to us. If we are not able to obtain required additional funding, through equity financings or other means, or if we are unable to obtain funding on terms favorable to us, the shortfall in funds raised, or such unfavorable terms, will likely have a material adverse effect on our operations and strategic development plan for future growth. If we cannot successfully raise the funding necessary to implement our current strategic development plan, we may be forced to make reductions in spending, suspend or terminate development programs, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible, and/or suspend or curtail planned programs. Any of these developments would materially and adversely affect our financial condition and business prospects and could even cause us to be unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, we may have to liquidate our assets and, in doing so, we may receive less than the value at which those assets are carried on our financial statements. Any of these developments would materially and adversely affect the price of our stock and the value of your investment.

2019 Private Placement

As described in Note 10- 2019 Private Placement, on April 10, 2019, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the 2019 Purchasers, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of $80 million of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share at a purchase price of $4.50 per share, and warrants to purchase shares of common stock with an exercise price of $6.38 per share in a private placement that was funded in two separate closings.

The first closing was completed on April 11, 2019, pursuant to which we (i) issued and sold to PDL 6,666,667 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 1,666,667 shares of common stock and (ii) provided to the 2019 Purchasers an option to purchase an aggregate of up to 11,111,111 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,777,779 shares of our common stock as specified in the aforementioned Securities Purchase Agreement during the period beginning on April 10, 2019 and ending on June 10, 2019. The total consideration for the Private Placement First Closing was $30 million.

The second closing was completed on June 10, 2019, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to PDL, Invesco and WIM (i) 6,666,667, 2,222,222 and 2,222,223 shares of its common stock, respectively and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 1,666,667, 555,556 and 555,556 shares of common stock, respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of $50 million. Shares of common stock issued to WIM included one voting share issued in connection with the issuance of its warrants.

2020 Debt and Equity Financing

As described in Note 5- Convertible Notes, we received an aggregate gross proceeds of $25.0 million upon the first and second closings of convertible senior secured promissory notes pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement with Baker Bros. Advisors LP during the second quarter of 2020.

As described in Note 11- Stockholder's Equity, we received net aggregate proceeds of $103.7 million in June 2020 upon the issuance and sale of 31,700,000 shares of our common stock from our Public Offering and net aggregate proceeds of $3.8 million, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 upon the issuance and sale of 676,656 shares of our common stock pursuant to the ATM program. The ATM program was terminated in June 2020.

Summary Statement of Cash Flows

The following table sets forth a summary of the net cash flow activity for each of the periods set forth below (in thousands):


	Nine Months Ended September 30,				2020 vs. 2019
	2020		2019		$ Change		% Change
Net cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash used in operating activities	$	(65,750)	$	(41,651)	$	(24,099)	58	%
Net cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash provided by (used in) investing activities	7,650		(3,488)		11,138		(319)	%
Net cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash provided by financing activities	129,309		75,884		53,425		70	%
Net increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	71,209	$	30,745	$	40,464	132	%

Cash Flows from Operating Activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the primary use of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash has been to fund development and commercialization of our lead product, Phexxi, and to support selling and marketing, and general and administrative operations.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the change in net cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash provided by investing activities was primarily due to an $8.2 million cash inflow from maturities of short-term investments offset by $1.7 million in purchases of property and equipment. Net cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily was the purchase of short-term investments of $3.7 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the primary source of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was provided from the sale of an aggregate of 31,700,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $103.7 million, net of underwriting commissions, gross proceeds of $25.0 million from issuance of convertible notes and warrants, the sale of 676,656 shares of common stock under the ATM program for net proceeds of

Table of Contents

approximately $3.8 million in cash and cash equivalents (including $0.3 million that was included in other receivables in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019), net of commissions, and the issuance of 89,106 shares of our common stock under the 2019 ESPP and exercise of stock options with aggregate proceeds of $0.3 million. These cash inflows were offset by $2.9 million in payments of tax withholdings related to vesting of restricted stock awards and $0.9 million payments for financing and debt issuance costs.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the primary source of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was the issuance of 2,376,062 shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants in February 2019 for gross proceeds of $6.3 million and the issuance of an aggregate of 17,777,779 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 4,444,446 shares of common stock pursuant to the Private Placement during the second quarter of 2019 for net proceeds of $75.4 million, net of financial advisory fees. The cash inflow was offset by the $4.0 million repayment of a 2018 note payable to our clinical research organization for AMPOWER (Vendor Note) during the second quarter of 2019, $1.2 million in payments of financing costs and $0.6 million payments of tax withholdings related to vesting of restricted stock awards.

Operating and Capital Expenditure Requirements

Our future capital requirements are difficult to forecast. For example, we expect to incur additional capital expenditures to expand manufacturing capacity for Phexxi but cannot adequately predict the future cost or other potential capital expenditure requirements, if any. We also have future contractual obligations for the 2020 Lease and Fleet Lease as discussed in Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies, and will incur additional capital expenditures for leasehold improvements associated with the 2020 Lease.

We expect research and development expenses to decrease in 2020 due to completion of the clinical phase of AMPREVENCE trial for EVO100 in December 2019. However, we expect research and development expenses will begin to increase in the fourth quarter of the year with the initiation of the EVOGUARD trial in October 2020. The process of conducting clinical trials necessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming and we may never succeed in achieving regulatory approval for EVO100 or our other future product candidates. The probability of success for each product candidate will be affected by numerous factors, including preclinical data, clinical trial data, competition, manufacturing capability and commercial viability. We are responsible for all research and development expenses for our programs.

We expect selling and marketing expenses to increase significantly due to our sales force which was originally established in the third quarter of 2020, and as we continue to develop and commence associated marketing campaigns and initiatives, including our direct-to-consumer programs.

We expect general and administrative expenses to increase as we hire additional personnel to support the growth of our business and further commercialization activities, and as we engage third parties to assist in the commercialization of Phexxi in the United States.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as such term is defined under Item 303 of Regulation S-K, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Other Matters

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

For information with respect to recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the applicable periods. Management bases its estimates, assumptions and judgments, on historical experience and on various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Different estimates, assumptions and judgments may change the estimate used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, which, in turn, could materially change our results from those

Table of Contents

reported. Management evaluates its estimates, assumptions and judgments on an ongoing basis. However, if our assumptions change, we may need to revise our estimates, or take other corrective actions, either of which may also have a material adverse effect on our consolidated statements of operations, liquidity and financial condition. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve significant areas where management applies estimates, assumptions and judgments in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note 2 to our 2019 Audited Financial Statements for our additional accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition and Trade Accounts Receivable

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its product Phexxi in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). The provisions of ASC 606 require the following steps to determine revenue recognition: (1) Identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) Determine the transaction price; (4) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the product to a customer. Per the Company’s contracts with customers, control of the product is transferred upon the conveyance of title, which occurs when the product is sold to and received by a customer. The Company’s customers consist of wholesale distributors and a specialty pharmacy. Payment terms typically range from 45 to 66 days, include prompt pay discounts, and vary by customer. Trade accounts receivable due to the Company from contracts with its customers are stated separately in the balance sheet, net of various allowances as described in the Trade Accounts Receivable policy in Note 2- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

The amount of revenue recognized by the Company is equal to the amount of consideration which is expected to be received from the sale of product to its customers. Revenue is only recognized when it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur in future periods. To determine this, the Company assesses both the likelihood and magnitude of any such potential reversal of revenue.

The product is sold to customers at the wholesale acquisition cost. However, the Company records product revenue, net of estimates for applicable variable consideration.

Clinical Trial Accruals

As part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we are required to estimate expenses resulting from our obligations under contracts with vendors, CROs and consultants and under clinical site agreements relating to conducting our clinical trials. The financial terms of these contracts vary and may result in payment flows that do not match the periods over which materials or services are provided under such contracts.

Our objective is to reflect the appropriate clinical trial expenses in our condensed consolidated financial statements by recording those expenses in the period in which services are performed and efforts are expended. We account for these expenses according to the progress of the clinical trial as measured by patient progression and the timing of various aspects of the trial. We determine accrual estimates through financial models and discussions with applicable personnel and outside service providers as to the progress of clinical trials.

During a clinical trial, we adjust the clinical expense recognition if actual results differ from estimates. We make estimates of accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date based on the facts and circumstances known at that time. Our clinical trial accruals are partially dependent upon accurate reporting by CROs and other third-party vendors. Although we do not expect estimates to differ materially from actual amounts, our understanding of the status and timing of services performed relative to the actual status and timing of services performed may vary and may result in reporting amounts that are too high or too low for any reporting period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no material adjustments to our prior period estimates of accrued expenses for clinical trials.

Fair Value of the Baker Notes

We elected the fair value option under ASC 825, Financial Instruments, for the Baker Notes as they are qualified financial instruments and are, in whole, classified as liabilities. Under the fair value option, we recognized the hybrid debt instrument at fair value inclusive of embedded features. The fair value of the Baker Notes issued, and the change in fair value of the Baker Notes at the reporting date, were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation-based model. Monte Carlo simulation was used to take into account several factors including the future value of our common stock, a potential change of control event, the maturity term of the Baker Notes, the probability of an event of voluntary conversion of the Baker Notes, exercise of the put right, and exercise of our call right.

The fair value of stock options, warrants issued in various financing occasions in connection with the Merger and post- Merger, the change in fair value of warrants as a result of the modification, and mark-to-market for liability classified warrants, were determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the applicable assumptions, which includes the exercise price of warrants, time to expiration, expected volatility of our peer group, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend.

Fair Value of Purchase Rights

The fair value of the Baker Purchase Rights issued in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, as described in Note 5 - Convertible Notes, and the change in fair value of Baker Purchase Rights upon exercise of such rights, was determined as the maximum of (i) the fair value of rights to purchase the additional $10 million Baker Notes and; (ii) the fair value of the shares of on as-if converted basis, which was determined by the lattice model. The fair value of rights to purchase the accompanying 2,409,180 Baker Warrants was valued using a Geske option-pricing model. The Geske model was based on the applicable assumptions, including the underlying stock price, warrant exercise price, the exercise price of the rights to purchase the Baker Warrants, the term of the Baker Warrants, the term of the rights to purchase the Baker Warrants , expected volatility of the Company’s peer group, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend.

The fair value of the Private Placement Purchase Rights issued in the Private Placement, and the change in fair value of the Private Placement Purchase Rights on the Private Placement Approval Date, was determined using a combination of a lattice model and Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The lattice model was used to determine the future value of our common stock. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was based on the applicable assumptions, including the future value of the Company's common stock as determined by the lattice model, warrant exercise price, time to expiration, expected volatility of our peer group, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend.

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease or implicitly contains a lease at inception based on the lease definition, and if the lease is classified as an operating lease or finance lease in accordance with ASC 842. Leases. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and operating lease liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date or the adoption date of January 1, 2019 for existing leases based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term using an estimated discount rate. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we used an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date or the adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments over a similar term. In determining the estimated incremental borrowing rate, we considered a rate obtained from its primary banker for discussion purposes of a potential collateralized loan with a term similar to the lease term, our historical borrowing capability in the market, and our costs incurred for underwriting discounts and financing costs in its previous equity financing. The ROU assets also include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. For operating leases, lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease and non-lease components within a contract are generally accounted for separately.

Inventories

Inventories, consisting of purchased materials, direct labor and manufacturing overheads, are stated at the lower of cost, or net realizable value. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. At each balance sheet date, we evaluate ending inventories for excess quantities, obsolescence, or shelf-life expiration. The evaluation includes an analysis of our current and future strategic plans, anticipated future sales, the price projections of future demand, and the remaining shelf life of goods on hand. To the extent that we determine there are excess or obsolete inventory or quantities with a shelf life that is too near its expiration for us to reasonably expect that it can sell those products prior to their expiration, we adjust the carrying value to estimated net realizable value.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure 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 (the Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our latest fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
