We do not intend our use or display of other parties’ trademarks, trade names or service marks to imply, and such use or display should not be construed to imply a relationship with, or endorsement or sponsorship of us by, these other parties. TherapeuticsMD was previously a women’s healthcare company with a mission of creating and commercializing innovative products to support the lifespan of women from pregnancy prevention through menopause. In December 2022, we changed our business to become a pharmaceutical royalty company, currently receiving royalties on products licensed to pharmaceutical organizations that possess commercial capabilities in the relevant territories. On December 30, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), we completed a transaction (the “Mayne Transaction”) with Mayne Pharma LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Mayne Pharma”) and subsidiary of Mayne Pharma Group Limited, an Australian public company, in which we and our subsidiaries (i) granted Mayne Pharma an exclusive license to commercialize our IMVEXXY, BIJUVA and prescription prenatal vitamin products sold under the BocaGreenMD and vitaMedMD brands (collectively, the “Licensed Products”) in the United States and its possessions and territories, (ii) assigned to Mayne Pharma our exclusive license to commercialize ANNOVERA® (together with the Licensed Products, collectively, the “Products”) in the United States and its possessions and territories, and (iii) sold certain other assets to Mayne Pharma in connection therewith. In a License Agreement, dated December 4, 2022, between TherapeuticsMD and Mayne Pharma (the “Mayne License Agreement”), we granted Mayne Pharma, on the Closing Date, (i) an exclusive, sublicensable, perpetual, irrevocable license to research, develop, register, manufacture, have manufactured, market, sell, use, and commercialize the Licensed Products in the United States and its possessions and territories and (ii) an exclusive, sublicensable, perpetual, irrevocable license to manufacture, have manufactured, import and have imported the Licensed Products outside the United States for commercialization in the United States and its possessions and territories. Under the Mayne License Agreement, Mayne Pharma will pay us milestone payments of each of (i) $5.0 million if aggregate net sales of all Products in the United States during a calendar year reach $100.0 million, (ii) $10.0 million if aggregate net sales of all Products in the United States during a calendar year reach $200.0 million and (iii) $15.0 million if aggregate net sales of all Products in the United States during a calendar year reach $300.0 million. Further, Mayne Pharma will pay us royalties on net sales of all Products in the United States at a royalty rate of 8.0% on the first $80.0 million in annual net sales and 7.5% on annual net sales above $80.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, for a period of 20 years following the Closing Date. The royalty rate will decrease to 2.0% on a Product-by-Product basis upon the earlier to occur of (i) the expiration or revocation of the last patent covering a Product and (ii) a generic version of a Product launching in the United States. Mayne Pharma will pay us minimal annual royalties of $3.0 million per year for 12 years, adjusted for inflation at an annual rate of 3%, subject to certain further adjustments, including as described below. Upon the expiry of the 20-year royalty term, the licenses granted to Mayne Pharma under the Mayne License Agreement will become a fully paid-up and royalty free license for the Licensed Products. Under the Transaction Agreement, dated December 4, 2022, between TherapeuticsMD and Mayne Pharma (the “Transaction Agreement”), we sold to Mayne Pharma, at closing, certain assets for Mayne Pharma to commercialize the Products in the United States, including, with the Population Council’s consent, our exclusive license from the Population Council to commercialize ANNOVERA (the “Transferred Assets”). The total consideration from Mayne Pharma to TherapeuticsMD for the purchase of the Transferred Assets and the grant of the licenses under the Mayne Transaction Agreement was (i) a cash payment of $140.0 million at closing, (ii) a cash payment of approximately $12.1 million at closing for the acquisition of net working capital as determined in accordance with the Transaction Agreement and subject to certain adjustments, (iii) a cash payment of approximately $1.0 million at closing for prepaid royalties in connection with the Mayne License Agreement Amendment (as defined below) and (iv) the right to receive the contingent consideration set forth in the Mayne License Agreement, as amended. The acquisition of net working capital was determined in accordance with the Transaction Agreement and included significant estimates which could change materially for a period of up to two years following the Closing Date. On the Closing Date, TherapeuticsMD and Mayne Pharma entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Mayne License Agreement (the “Mayne License Agreement Amendment”). Pursuant to the Mayne License Agreement Amendment, Mayne Pharma agreed to pay us approximately $1.0 million in prepaid royalties on the Closing Date. The prepaid royalties reduced the first four quarterly payments that would have otherwise been payable pursuant to the Mayne License Agreement by an amount equal to $257 thousand per quarterly royalty payment plus interest calculated at 19% per annum accruing from the Closing Date until the date such quarterly royalty payment was paid to us. We and Mayne Pharma settled the $1.5 million of consideration due to Mayne Pharma for the assumed obligations under a long-term services agreement, including our minimum payment obligations thereunder. As the parties agreed, during the second quarter of 2023 Mayne Pharma held back our royalty payment of $0.6 million and we funded an additional $0.9 million in August 2023 to settle the original $1.5 million payable. As part of the transformation that included the Mayne License Agreement, historical results of commercial operations for all periods prior to the Closing Date have been reflected as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Assets and liabilities associated with the commercial business are classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Additional disclosures regarding discontinued operations are provided in Note 2 of our condensed consolidated financial statements. We also have license agreements with strategic partners to commercialize IMVEXXY and BIJUVA outside of the U.S. ● In July 2018, we entered into a license and supply agreement (the “Knight License Agreement”) with Knight Therapeutics Inc. (“Knight”) pursuant to which we granted Knight an exclusive license to commercialize IMVEXXY and BIJUVA in Canada and Israel. Knight obtained regulatory approval for IMVEXXY and BIJUVA and began commercialization efforts in 2024. ● In September 2019, we entered into an exclusive license and supply agreement (the “Theramex License Agreement”) with Theramex HQ UK Limited (“Theramex”) to commercialize IMVEXXY and BIJUVA outside of the U.S., excluding Canada and Israel. In 2021, Theramex secured regulatory approval for BIJUVA in certain European countries and began commercialization efforts in those countries. In connection with our transformation into a pharmaceutical royalty company, the termination of our executive management team (except for Mr. Marlan Walker, our former General Counsel and current Chief Executive Officer) and all other employees was completed by December 31, 2022. Severance obligations for all employees other than executive officers were paid in full in January 2023 and severance obligations for terminated executive officers have been paid in accordance with their employment agreements and separation agreements as previously disclosed. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, we employed one full-time employee primarily engaged in an executive position. We have engaged external consultants who support our relationship with current partners and assist with certain financial, legal, and regulatory matters and the continued wind-down of our historical business operations. On August 15, 2023, we entered into a master services agreement with JZ Advisory Group, pursuant to which Joseph Ziegler would serve as our Principal Financial Officer. On August 17, 2023 Michael C. Donegan notified us of his decision to resign from the positions of Principal Financial and Accounting Officer of our Company effective as of August 17, 2023. Mr. Ziegler succeeded Mr. Donegan as Principal Financial and Accounting Officer as of the date of Mr. Donegan’s resignation. Going concern Following the transaction with Mayne Pharma, our primary source of revenue is from royalties on products licensed to pharmaceutical organizations that possess commercial capabilities in the relevant territories. We may need to raise additional capital to provide additional liquidity to fund our operations until we become cash flow positive. To address our capital needs, we may pursue various equity and debt financing and other alternatives. The equity financing alternatives may include the private placement of equity, equity-linked, or other similar instruments or obligations with one or more investors, lenders, or other institutional counterparties or an underwritten public equity or equity-linked securities offering. Our ability to sell equity securities may be limited by market conditions, including the market price of our common stock, and our available authorized shares. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of such securities, the ownership interests of our existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these new securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing stockholders. If we are not successful in obtaining additional financing, we could be forced to discontinue or curtail our business operations, sell assets at unfavorable prices, or merge, consolidate, or combine with a company with greater financial resources in a transaction that might be unfavorable to us. On May 1, 2023, we entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with Rubric Capital Management LP (“Rubric”), pursuant to which we agreed to sell to Rubric, or one or more of its affiliates, up to an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (our “Common Stock”), from time to time during the term of the Subscription Agreement in separate draw-downs at our election. On June 29, 2023, we issued and sold 312,525 shares of Common Stock at a price per share equal to $3.6797 pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. We received gross proceeds of $1.15 million from the draw down, before expenses. On November 15, 2023, Rubric drew down an additional 877,192 shares of Common Stock at a price per share equal to $2.2761. We received gross proceeds of $2.0 million from the drawdown, before expenses. In February 2024, the Company received Mayne Pharma’s calculation of allowance for payer rebates and wholesale distributor fees pursuant to the Transaction Agreement which differed significantly from the Company’s estimate of the allowances. The Company and Mayne Pharma intend to resolve this matter through the dispute resolution process outlined in the Transaction Agreement. The Company continues to believe its estimated allowances for payer rebates and wholesale distributor fees are reasonable. The outcome of this matter is uncertain at this point. As a result, the Company cannot reasonably estimate a range of loss, and accordingly, the Company has not accrued any additional liability associated with Mayne Pharma’s allowance calculation for payer rebates and wholesale distributor fees. As of June 30, 2024, the Company believes no additional accrual is required for amounts that may be owed for the allowance for returns under the Transaction Agreement. The Company has not recorded any contingent gains or receivables for any such allowances. Management continues to monitor the unresolved and pending net working capital items as changes to estimated amounts owed or amounts due from Mayne Pharma may be material. If Mayne Pharma’s sales of Licensed Products grow more slowly than expected or decline, if the net working capital settlement with Mayne Pharma under the Transaction Agreement is greater than our current estimates, if we are unsuccessful with future financings or the supply chains related to the third-party contract manufacturers are worse than we anticipate, our existing cash reserves may be insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements. The potential impact of these factors in conjunction with the uncertainty of the capital markets raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. Basis of presentation We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this 10-Q Report following the requirements of the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain notes or other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements can be condensed or omitted. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2023 10-K Report”). As part of the transformation as a result of the Mayne Transaction, historical results of commercial operations for all periods prior to the Closing Date have been reflected as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Assets and liabilities associated with the commercial business are classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Additional disclosures regarding discontinued operations are provided in Note 2 of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, and equities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be representative of those for the full year. In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements, which are of a normal and recurring nature, have been made for the interim periods reported. The information included in this 10-Q Report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our 2023 10-K Report. Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes may not add due to rounding, and all percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current-period presentation. New accounting standards Adoption of new accounting standards In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” ASU 2023-09 enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 will be effective for the Company in its income tax disclosure included in its 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K and will be applied on a prospective basis. However, retrospective application is permitted. Early adoption is also permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on the Company’s income tax disclosures and on its consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ, at times in material amounts, from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Significant accounting policies The significant accounting policies we use for quarterly financial reporting are disclosed in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 10-K report. |
