NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Business of the Company

Retractable Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Texas on May 9, 1994, and designs, develops, manufactures, and markets safety syringes and other safety medical products for the healthcare profession. The Company began to develop its manufacturing operations in 1995. The Company’s manufacturing and administrative facilities are located in Little Elm, Texas. The Company’s products are the VanishPoint^® 0.5mL insulin syringe; 1mL tuberculin, insulin, and allergy antigen syringes; 0.5mL, 1mL, 2mL, 3mL, 5mL, and 10mL syringes; the blood collection tube holder; the small diameter tube adapter; the allergy tray; the IV safety catheter; the Patient Safe^® syringes; the Patient Safe^® Luer Cap; the VanishPoint^® Blood Collection Set; and the EasyPoint^® needle as well as a standard 3mL syringe packaged with an EasyPoint^® needle. The Company also sells VanishPoint^® autodisable syringes in the international market in addition to the Company’s other products.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of Management, reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. The unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statement disclosures contained in the Company’s audited financial statements incorporated into its Form 10-K filed on March 31, 2021 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Certain amounts in the prior period Condensed Balance Sheets have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current period financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported total current assets or total assets.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The amount reported as a contractual allowance for rebates involves examination of past historical trends related to sales to customers and the related credits issued once contractual obligations of the customers have been met. The establishment of a liability for future claims of rebates against sales in the current period requires that the Company has an understanding of the relevant sales with respect to product categories, sales distribution channels, and the likelihood of contractual obligations being satisfied.

Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash, money market accounts, and investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Accounts receivable

The Company records trade receivables when revenue is recognized. No product has been consigned to customers. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is primarily determined by review of specific trade receivables.

Table of Contents

Those accounts that are doubtful of collection are included in the allowance. This provision is reviewed to determine the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Trade receivables are charged off when there is certainty as to their being uncollectible. Trade receivables are considered delinquent when payment has not been made within contract terms. The Allowance for bad debt was $352,217 and $205,822 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The Company requires certain customers to make a prepayment prior to beginning production or shipment of their order. Customers may apply such prepayments to their outstanding invoices or pay the invoice and continue to carry forward the deposit for future orders. Such amounts are included in Other accrued liabilities on the Condensed Balance Sheets and are shown in Note 6, Other Accrued Liabilities.

The Company records an allowance for estimated returns as a reduction to Accounts receivable and Gross sales. Historically, returns have been insignificant.

Receivable from Technology Investment Agreement (TIA)

The amounts set forth as Receivable from Technology Investment Agreement (TIA) represent amounts receivable under a contractual agreement under the Technology Investment Agreement (TIA). The amounts may represent advance requests or reimbursement requests for expenditures the Company makes or has made under its obligations with the federal government. For further explanation, please refer to Note 16 – Technology Investment Agreement.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined using actual average cost. The Company compares the average cost to the net realizable value and records the lower value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Management considers such factors as the amount of inventory on hand and in the distribution channel, estimated time to sell such inventory, the shelf life of inventory, and current market conditions when determining excess or obsolete inventories. Once inventory items are deemed to be either excess or obsolete, they are excluded from the stated net realizable value.

Investments in debt and equity securities

The Company holds high-grade exchange-traded and closed-end funds (ETFs), mutual funds, equity securities, and debt securities as investments. These assets are readily marketable and are carried at fair value as of the date of the Condensed Balance Sheets. Net unrealized and realized gains or losses on investments in debt and equity securities are reflected as a component of Interest and other income (loss). Realized gains or losses on investments in debt and equity securities are recognized using the specific identification method.

Property, plant, and equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Cost includes major expenditures for improvements and replacements which extend useful lives or increase capacity and interest cost associated with significant capital additions. Gains or losses from disposals are included in Interest and other income.

The Company's property, plant, and equipment primarily consist of buildings, land, assembly equipment, molding machines, molds, office equipment, furniture, and fixtures. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:

Table of Contents


Production equipment		3 to 13 years
Office furniture and equipment		3 to 10 years
Buildings		39 years
Building improvements		15 years

Long-lived assets

The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets using an assessment of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows related to such assets. In the event that assets are found to be carried at amounts which are in excess of estimated gross future cash flows, the assets will be adjusted for impairment to a level commensurate with fair value determined using a discounted cash flow analysis or appraised values of the underlying assets.

Fair value measurements

For assets and liabilities that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, total fair value is the published market price per unit multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs. Assets and liabilities that are measured using significant other observable inputs are valued by reference to similar assets or liabilities, adjusted for contract restrictions and other terms specific to that asset or liability. For these items, a significant portion of fair value is derived by reference to quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets. For all remaining assets and liabilities, fair value is derived using a fair value model, such as a discounted cash flow model or Black-Scholes model.

Financial instruments

The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments through the use of public market prices, quotes from financial institutions, and other available information. Judgment is required in interpreting data to develop estimates of fair value and, accordingly, amounts are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange. Short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other liabilities, consist primarily of instruments without extended maturities, the fair value of which, based on Management's estimates, equals their recorded values. Investments in equity securities consist primarily of individual equity securities, exchange-traded and closed-end funds and mutual funds and are reported at their fair value based upon quoted prices in active markets. Investments in certificates of deposit (CD) with original maturities of greater than three months are reported at their estimated fair value based upon the duration of the CD and the interest rate earned on the CD versus current interest rates of similar duration CDs. The fair value of long-term liabilities, based on Management’s estimates, approximates their reported values.

Concentration risks

The Company’s financial instruments exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, exchange-traded and closed-end funds, mutual funds, equity securities, and accounts receivable. Cash balances, some of which exceed federally insured limits, are maintained in financial institutions; however, Management believes the institutions are of high credit quality. The Company assesses market risk in debt and equity securities through consultation with its outside investment advisors. Management is responsible for directing investment activity based on current economic conditions. The majority of accounts receivable are due from companies which are well-established entities. In the second quarter of 2021, a significant portion of the Company’s sales were to the U.S. government, which Management does not consider a credit risk. As a consequence, Management considers any exposure from concentrations of credit risks to be limited.

Table of Contents

The following table reflects significant customers for the three- and six-month periods of 2021 and 2020:


	Three Months Ended			Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2021			June 30, 2020			June 30, 2021			June 30, 2020
Number of significant customers		1			4			1			2
Aggregate dollar amount of net sales to significant customers	$	27.4 million		$	6.0 million		$	65.1 million		$	6.9 million
Percentage of net sales to significant customers		64.4	%		52.1	%		70.4	%		30.2	%

In the first six months of 2021, approximately $65.1 million of the Company's sales were to the Department of Health and Human Services of the United States. Management expects the U.S. government to remain a significant customer through at least March 2022.

The Company manufactures some of its products in Little Elm, Texas as well as utilizing manufacturers in China. The Company obtained roughly 90.4% and 83.5% of its products in the first six months of 2021 and 2020, respectively, from its Chinese manufacturers. Purchases from Chinese manufacturers aggregated 90.6% and 85.0% of products in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. In the event that the Company becomes unable to purchase products from its Chinese manufacturers, the Company would need to find an alternate manufacturer for its blood collection set, IV catheter, Patient Safe^® syringe, 0.5mL insulin syringe, 0.5mL autodisable syringe, and 2mL, 5mL, and 10mL syringes, and would increase domestic production for the 1mL and 3mL syringes and EasyPoint^® needles.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it has satisfied all performance obligations to the customer, generally when title and risk of loss pass to the customer. Payments from customers with approved credit terms are typically due 30 days from the invoice date. Under certain contracts, revenue is recorded on the basis of sales price to distributors, less contractual pricing allowances. Contractual pricing allowances consist of: (i) rebates granted to distributors who provide tracking reports which show, among other things, the facility that purchased the products, and (ii) a provision for estimated contractual pricing allowances for products for which the Company has not received tracking reports. When rebates are issued, they are applied against the customer’s receivable balance. Distributors receive a rebate for the difference between the Wholesale Acquisition Cost and the appropriate contract price as reflected on a tracking report provided by the distributor to the Company. If product is sold by a distributor to an entity that has no contract, there is a standard rebate (lower than a contracted rebate) given to the distributor. One of the purposes of the rebate is to encourage distributors to submit tracking reports to the Company. The provision for contractual pricing allowances is recognized in the period the related sales are recognized and is reviewed at the end of each quarter and adjusted for changes in levels of products for which there is no tracking report. Additionally, if it becomes clear that tracking reports will not be provided by individual distributors, the provision is further adjusted. The estimated contractual allowance is included in Accounts payable in the Condensed Balance Sheets and deducted from Revenues in the Condensed Statements of Operations. Accounts payable included estimated contractual allowances for $3,313,241 and $3,435,352 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The terms and conditions of contractual pricing allowances are governed by contracts between the Company and its distributors. Revenue for shipments directly to end-users is recognized when title and risk of ownership pass from the Company. End-users do not receive any contractual allowances on their purchases. Any product shipped or distributed for evaluation purposes is expensed.

The Company provides product warranties that: i) the products are fit for medical use as generally defined within the boundaries of United States FDA approval; ii) the products are not defective; and iii) the products will conform to the descriptions set forth in their respective labeling, provided that they are used in accordance with such labeling and the Company’s written directions for use. The Company has historically not incurred significant warranty claims.

The Company’s domestic return policy provides that a customer may return incorrect shipments within 10 days following arrival at the distributor’s facility. In all such cases, the distributor must obtain an authorization code from the Company and affix the code to the returned product. The Company’s domestic return policy also generally

Table of Contents

provides that a customer may return product that is overstocked. Overstocking returns are limited to 2 times in each 12-month period up to 1% of distributor’s total purchase of products for the prior 12-month period. All product overstocks and returns are subject to inspection and acceptance by the Company.

The Company’s international distribution agreements generally do not provide for any returns.

The Company requires certain customers to pay in advance of product shipment. Such prepayments from customers are recorded in Other accrued liabilities and are generally recognized as revenue upon shipment of the product.

The Company periodically recognizes revenue from licensing agreements. If the Company licenses its products for sale, the Company is obligated to pay Thomas J. Shaw, the owner of certain patented technology, a certain percentage of such revenue pursuant to the terms of the Technology License Agreement between the Company and Mr. Shaw.

Disaggregated information of revenue recognized from contracts with customers and licensing fees recognized are as follows:

Income taxes

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return for recognition in the financial statements based on whether it is “more-likely-than-not” that a tax position will be sustained based upon the technical merits of the position. Measurement of the tax position is based upon the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

The Company provides for deferred income taxes through utilizing an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting based on the tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, based on enacted rates expected to be in effect when such differences reverse in future periods. Deferred tax assets are periodically reviewed for realizability. In prior periods, the Company established a valuation allowance for its net deferred tax asset as future taxable income which could not be reasonably assured. During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company released its valuation allowance based on available evidence supporting that its deferred tax assets will be realized in full.

Earnings per share

The Company computes basic earnings per share (“EPS”) by dividing net earnings for the period (adjusted for any cumulative dividends for the period) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS includes the determinants of basic EPS and, in addition, reflects the dilutive effect, if any, of the common stock deliverable pursuant to stock options and/or common stock issuable upon the conversion of convertible preferred stock.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the calculation of diluted EPS under the treasury stock method included 139,119 and 144,376 shares, respectively, of Common Stock underlying issued and outstanding stock options. Common stock issuable upon the conversion of 236,445 convertible preferred shares is included in the calculation of diluted EPS for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

The calculation of diluted EPS under the treasury stock method included 196,334 and 120,877 shares of Common Stock underlying issued and outstanding stock options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. For these same periods, preferred stock was excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS because the effect was antidilutive.

The potential dilution, if any, is shown on the following schedule:


	Three Months Ended		Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended		Six Months Ended

Research and development costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating and finance leases are included in Other assets, Other accrued liabilities, and Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Balance Sheets. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date was used in determining the present value of lease payments.

The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the Condensed Balance Sheets; however, rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Technology Investment Agreement (TIA)

Effective July 1, 2020, the Company entered into a Technology Investment Agreement (“TIA”) with the United States Government Department of Defense, U.S. Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground, Natick Contracting Division & Edgewood Contracting Division (ACC-APG, NCD & ECD) on behalf of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), as amended, for $81,029,518 in Government funding for expanding the Company’s domestic production of needles and syringes. Pursuant to the terms of the TIA, the Company is expected to make significant additions to its facilities which should allow the Company to increase domestic production. As reimbursements are received from the U.S. government for such expenditures, the Company records a deferred liability. The deferred liability will be systematically amortized as a gain over the life of the related property, plant, and equipment as to offset the related depreciation expense of the assets acquired. The amortization will be presented separately from the depreciation expense on the Condensed Statements of Operations.

Recently Adopted Pronouncements

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” as well as subsequent clarifying amendments on January 1, 2020. Among other things, these amendments require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based

Table of Contents

on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied previously will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. The adoption of ASU 2016-13, as well as the Targeted Transition Relief as provided by ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Targeted Transition Relief” did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company adopted ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract (a Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)" on January 1, 2020. This amendment requires that implemented costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 350-40 Internal-Use Software. Accordingly, costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages are expensed and costs associated with the application development phase are capitalized. The amendment also requires that capitalized costs be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement and that capitalized costs should be evaluated for impairment. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements or disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." The amendment modifies, among other things, disclosure requirements on fair value measurements and eliminates certain disclosures related to transfers and valuation levels of Level 3 fair value measurements. Additionally, the amendment requires disclosure of changes in unrealized gains and losses in other comprehensive income for Level 3 fair value measurements and certain qualitative factors related to significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 valuations. The amendment was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within the annual period. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a significant effect on the Company's financial statements , as the Company does not currently have any investments classified as Level 3 fair value measurements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes: Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The new standard is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The new guidance also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within the annual period, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the standard requires certain changes primarily be made prospectively, with some changes to be made retrospectively. The Company has determined that the adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on its financial statements.

Recently Issued Pronouncement

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”, to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients for contracts that reference LIBOR, if certain criteria are met, that can be applied through December 31, 2022. As reference rate reform is still an ongoing process, the Company will continue to evaluate the timing and potential impact of adoption for optional expedients when deemed necessary.

4. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures regarding certain fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy for measuring fair value, as follows:

●

Level 1 – quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

●

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable

●

Level 3 – unobservable inputs where there is little or no market activity

5. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective tax rate on the net income before income taxes was 24.6% and 26.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate on the net income before income taxes was (85.1)% and (74.8)% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

A reconciliation of the federal statutory corporate tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows:



	June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020
U.S. statutory federal tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
Valuation Allowance	—		(98.2)	%
PPP loan	(1.1)	%	—
State taxes	6.1	%	2.4	%
Effective tax rate	26.0	%	(74.8)	%

The Company uses the recognition and measurement provisions of the FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”), to account for income taxes. The provisions of Topic 740 require a company to record a valuation allowance when the “more likely than not” criterion for realizing net deferred tax assets cannot be met. Furthermore, the weight given to the potential effect of such evidence should be commensurate with the extent to which it can be objectively verified. As a result, we reviewed the operating results, as well as all of the positive and negative evidence related to realization of such deferred tax assets to evaluate the need for a valuation allowance at June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was different from the federal statutory rate due primarily to the apportionment of earnings across various state jurisdictions. The Company determined that no valuation allowance should be recorded at June 30, 2021.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was different from the federal statutory rate due primarily to the release of the valuation allowance recorded on net operating losses in earlier periods.

6. OTHER ACCRUED LIABILITIES

Other accrued liabilities consist of the following:

Total	$	51,461,639	$	24,478,697

The TIA provides for reimbursement to the Company for the purchase of equipment and supplies related to the expansion of the Company’s domestic production of needles and syringes. Under the TIA, reimbursable amounts will

Table of Contents

be reflected as a liability until the time its deferred income can be systematically amortized over a period matching the useful life of the purchased assets.

The stock repurchase liability represents the long-term portion, at net present value, of $2,082,089 gross payable by the Company to former preferred shareholders as a result of private stock purchases in 2020 of 320,333 shares of Class B Series IV preferred stock and 25,000 shares of Class B Series V preferred stock. The purchase price is payable in three annual installments of $1,101,110.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On November 7, 2019, the Company filed a lawsuit in the 44^th District Court of Dallas County, Texas (No. DC-19-17946) against Locke Lord, LLP and Roy Hardin in connection with their legal representation of the Company in its previous litigation against Becton, Dickinson and Company ("BD"). The Company alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties, committed malpractice, and were negligent in their representation of the Company. The Company seeks actual and exemplary damages, disgorgement, costs, and interest. On October 6, 2020, the Court dismissed BD’s motion to dismiss. Such order was affirmed on April 20, 2021 by the Court of Appeals, Fifth District of Texas at Dallas.

9. BUSINESS SEGMENT

The Company does not operate in separate reportable segments. Shipments to international customers generally require a prepayment either by wire transfer or an irrevocable confirmed letter of credit. The Company does extend credit to international customers on some occasions depending upon certain criteria, including, but not limited to, the credit worthiness of the customer, the stability of the country, banking restrictions, and the size of the order. All transactions are in U.S. currency.

The dividends were paid on July 22, 2021.

11. LEASES

The Company has operating leases for a warehouse and equipment. The leases have a remaining lease term of less than one year. The Company currently has no finance leases. The ROU asset is determined based on the lease liability adjusted for lease incentives received. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The leases may include various expenses incidental to the use of the property, such as common area maintenance, property taxes and insurance. These costs are separate from the minimum rent payment and are not considered in the determination of the lease liability and ROU asset. The Company has not noted any material instances in its leases where these costs were combined with the minimum rent payment and has therefore elected the policy to not separate lease from non-lease components if they are combined with the minimum rent payment. The option periods are not included in the determination of the lease liability and right-of-use asset as the Company is not reasonably certain if it will extend at the time of lease commencement.

The operating lease cost component of the lease expense was $25,807 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. The cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities as a component of cash flows related to leases was $25,807 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The operating lease cost component of the lease expense was $40,768 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. The cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities as a component of cash flows related to leases was $40,768 for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Assets and liabilities associated with these leases included in the Condensed Balance Sheets are as follows:


	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

12. EXCHANGE OF COMMON STOCK FOR PREFERRED STOCK

In 2020, the Company entered into several agreements with shareholders to purchase its outstanding Class B Convertible Preferred Stock. The consideration for these purchases consisted of both cash and Common Stock. In addition, in each such transaction, the preferred shareholder counterparty waived all rights to unpaid dividends in arrears. The aggregate cash consideration equaled $3,786,000, of which $482,670 was paid in 2020. The balance is payable over a three-year period which began in February 2021. In February 2021, the Company paid the first of 3 equal installments of $1,101,110.

13. STOCK OPTIONS

Stock options were exercised by the Company’s employees and directors at various dates during the six months ended June 30, 2021, and, consequently, a total of 25,400 shares of Common Stock were issued for an aggregate payment to the Company of $48,600 to exercise such options.

On March 16, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2021 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) and set aside and reserved 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Plan. The Plan was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the May 11, 2021 shareholder meeting. The Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options at a price equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock as of the date of grant. Participants in the Plan may include employees, consultants, and non-employee Directors. On March 16, 2021, the Company’s Compensation and Benefits Committee approved option grants to purchase 1,000,000, 250,000, and 100,000 shares of Common Stock to the Company’s chief executive officer, general counsel, and chief financial officer, respectively. These shares will vest in their entirety three years from the grant date and have an exercise price of $13.00 per share. The value of an option for the purchase of each underlying share of Common Stock is $10.21 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with a risk-free rate of 1.20% and a volatility factor of 92.66%.

14. COVID-19

To date, the Company's manufacturing facility in Little Elm, Texas has continued to operate due to its status as an essential business. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has implemented certain safety precautions at its facility to reduce the risk of the potential spread of the novel coronavirus. All Company employees are required to be vaccinated. The Company continues to monitor the evolving situation and will work to further mitigate risks to staff and to customers. The Company is continuing to evaluate the ever-changing circumstances surrounding this pandemic as it relates to its ability to continue to source materials and products, maintain a workforce, and operate its business effectively and efficiently. Despite the global disruption of the coronavirus pandemic, the Company has not experienced a significant disruption to its supply chain. During 2020 and 2021, the Company has experienced an increase in demand for its products and has been able to meet such demand with increased volumes despite the pandemic. The Company is unable to predict with certainty its ability to maintain its current operational functionality.

15. PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM LOAN

On April 17, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note in the principal amount of $1,363,000 (the “PPP Loan”) in favor of Independent Bank pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The PPP Loan’s original maturity date was April 17, 2022 with an interest rate of 1.0% per annum. The PPP Loan had a prepayment option with no prepayment penalties. The PPP Loan was unsecured and was a non-recourse obligation.

On May 13, 2021, the Company was informed that the SBA granted its request for loan forgiveness for the entire original principal and accrued interest, for a total of $1,377,652. No payments were made prior to receiving forgiveness.

16. TECHNOLOGY INVESTMENT AGREEMENT

Effective July 1, 2020, the Company entered into the TIA with the U.S. government. The principal purpose of the TIA is to fund the expansion of the Company’s manufacturing capacity for hypodermic safety needles and corresponding syringes in response to the worldwide COVID-19 global pandemic. The award is an expenditure-type TIA, whereby the U.S. government will make payments to the Company for the Company’s expenditures for equipment and supplies in carrying out the expansion of the Company’s domestic production. The Company’s contributions under the terms of the TIA to enhance domestic capacity of pandemic-essential technology include providing facilities, technical expertise, labor, and maintenance of the TIA-funded equipment for a ten-year term.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had negotiated contracts for the purchase of automated assembly equipment, molds, and molding equipment, as well as portions of auxiliary equipment, for approximately $51.5 million. The Company has received a temporary certificate of occupancy for both the approximately 27,800 square foot controlled environment and the approximately 55,000 square foot new warehouse space. The final estimated cost of the controlled environment within existing properties is $6.7 million. The new warehouse space final estimated cost is $5.8 million. The cost of the controlled environment will be funded by the U.S. government under the TIA, while the cost of the new warehouse will be funded by the Company. A May 2021 amendment to the TIA requires further expansion and new assembly lines. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has issued purchase orders for approximately $15.7 million for the purchase of additional production and ancillary equipment.

17. STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN

The Company entered into a repurchase plan (the “Plan”) dated June 4, 2021 with an independent broker for the purchase of up to $10 million of the Company’s Common Stock. Under the Plan, open market purchases of the Company’s Common Stock commenced June 18, 2021 and 13,500 shares were purchased in the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021. The Plan terminates on the earliest of: June 18, 2022, the completion of all purchases contemplated by the Plan, termination by either party, the existence of a legal or regulatory restriction, certain fundamental business transactions, liquidation or reorganization, or failure of the Company to adhere to the representations and warranties in the Plan. The Plan is structured to comply with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The purchases under the Plan are subject to Rule 10b-18 limitations as well as certain price and market volume constraints specified in the Plan.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We have been manufacturing and marketing our products since 1997. VanishPoint^® syringes comprised 94.9% of our sales in the first six months of 2021. EasyPoint^®products accounted for 3.8% of sales in the first six months of 2021. We also manufacture and market a blood collection tube holder, IV safety catheter, and VanishPoint^®Blood Collection Set.

Our products have been and continue to be distributed nationally and internationally through numerous distributors. Some of our popular syringe products provide low dead-space. Low dead-space syringes reduce residual medication remaining in the syringe after the dose has been administered. In some instances, the low dead space allows for additional doses of medication to be obtained from the vials.

On May 1, 2020, we were awarded a delivery order under an existing contract by the Department of Health and Human Services of the United States to supply automated retraction safety syringes for COVID-19 vaccination efforts, which order was in the amount of $83.8 million plus $10 million in expedited freight costs. The period of performance for this order will end in March 2022.

The Department of Health and Human Services awarded us another contract on February 12, 2021 to supply low dead space safety syringes for COVID-19 vaccination efforts. The base price for the contract and purchase order is $54.2 million for the five-month base period of performance (February 15, 2021 to July 14, 2021). We have received nonbinding notice that the contract will be extended for seven additional months with a total contract price during such period of $92.8 million. Effective July 28, 2021, options for four of such seven additional months were exercised with a total value of $50.7 million, including slightly increased freight reimbursement costs. For each period, the freight reimbursement cost is included in total overall contract value and is estimated at approximately 25% of the overall price.

Our sales under both of the foregoing orders from the U.S. government were $65.1 million during the first six months of 2021, representing 70.4% of our total sales for such period. Both of the abovementioned orders as well as the TIA (as defined below) from the U.S. government are material events particular to the COVID-19 pandemic and may not be indicative of future operations. While the addition of manufacturing equipment and facilities will greatly increase our production capacity, we cannot be assured that there will be increased demand for our products once orders from the U.S. government have been filled. If future orders are not placed by the U.S. government and orders from new and existing customers do not materialize, we would have significant excess productive capabilities.

Effective July 1, 2020, we entered into a Technology Investment Agreement (“TIA”) with the United States Government Department of Defense, U.S. Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground, Natick Contracting Division & Edgewood Contracting Division (ACC-APG, NCD & ECD) on behalf of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) for $53.7 million in government funding for expanding our domestic production of needles and syringes. Effective May 12, 2021 we entered into an amendment to the TIA providing an additional $27.4 million in funding. The amendment calls for an increase in existing domestic manufacturing capabilities by a minimum of 50% in order to meet ongoing and future U.S. COVID-19 medical countermeasures demands. In order to satisfy this new objective, we are required to further expand our facilities and add new assembly lines by January 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2021, we have negotiated contracts for the purchase of automated assembly equipment, molds, and molding equipment, as well as portions of auxiliary equipment, for approximately $51.5 million and have substantially completed the $6.7 million 27,800 square foot controlled environment which will be funded by the U.S. government. We have also substantially completed the new $5.8 million 55,000 square foot warehouse space which is our financial responsibility. In furtherance of the May 2021 amendment, we have issued purchase orders for approximately $15.7 million for the purchase of two additional assembly lines, the necessary molds and molding equipment to support the additional assembly lines, as well as some of the necessary accessory equipment.

On April 17, 2020, we entered into the PPP Loan in the principal amount of $1.4 million in favor of Independent Bank pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). On May 13, 2021, we were informed that the SBA

Table of Contents

granted our request for loan forgiveness for the entire original principal amount and accrued interest, for a total of $1.4 million.

As detailed in Note 4 to the financial statements, we held $13.9 million in debt and equity securities as of June 30, 2021, which represented 14.5% of our current assets. We continually monitor our invested balances.

Subsequent to the first quarter of 2020, and in response to, among other factors, the global COVID-19 pandemic, our delivery orders from the U.S. government, and the TIA, employee headcount and related salary and benefits costs have increased significantly. As of June 30, 2021, the Company employed approximately 239 full-time, part-time, and temporary employees. This represents approximately a 38% increase in our workforce since June 2020.

On March 16, 2021, the Board approved the 2021 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) and set aside and reserved 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Plan. The Plan was approved by the shareholders at the May 11, 2021 shareholder meeting. The Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options at a price equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock as of the date of grant. Participants in the Plan may include employees, consultants, and non-employee Directors. On March 16, 2021, the Compensation and Benefits Committee approved option grants to purchase 1,000,000, 250,000, and 100,000 shares of Common Stock to our chief executive officer, general counsel, and chief financial officer, respectively. These shares will vest in their entirety three years from the grant date.

On March 16, 2021, the Compensation and Benefits Committee modified the annual salaries of our chief executive officer, general counsel, and chief financial officer to $1,000,000, $400,000, and $300,000, respectively. Such salaries are retroactively effective as of January 1, 2021. On March 16, 2021, the Compensation and Benefits Committee also approved issuances of cash bonuses of $300,000, $100,000, and $100,000 to our chief executive officer, general counsel, and chief financial officer, respectively.

On June 4, 2021, the Board of Directors approved payment to Class B Convertible Preferred shareholders of all current dividends, dividends in arrears, as well as dividends still owed to shareholders who converted their preferred stock in the past. The total amount authorized for dividends payable was $5.1 million. The dividends were paid on July 22, 2021.

Effective June 4, 2021, we entered into a repurchase plan (the “Plan”) for the purchase of up to $10 million of our Common Stock. Under the Plan, open market purchases of our Common Stock commenced June 18, 2021 and 95,626 shares were purchased as of August 6, 2021 for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.1 million.

Historically, unit sales have increased during the flu season. Seasonal trends in 2020 and the first six months of 2021 have been less pronounced due to demand related to the COVID-19 vaccine.

Product purchases from our Chinese manufacturers have enabled us to increase manufacturing capacity with little capital outlay and have provided a competitive manufacturing cost. In the first six months of 2021, our Chinese manufacturers produced approximately 90.4% of our products. In the event that we become unable to purchase products from our Chinese manufacturers, we would need to find an alternate manufacturer for the blood collection set, IV catheter, Patient Safe^® syringe, 0.5mL insulin syringe, 0.5mL autodisable syringe, and 2mL, 5mL, and 10mL syringes and we would increase domestic production for the 1mL and 3mL syringes and EasyPoint^®needles.

In 1995, we entered into a license agreement with Thomas J. Shaw for the exclusive right to manufacture, market, and distribute products utilizing his patented automated retraction technology and other patented technology. This technology is the subject of various patents and patent applications owned by Mr. Shaw. The license agreement generally provides for quarterly payments of a 5% royalty fee on gross sales of products subject to the license and he receives fifty percent (50%) of the royalties paid to us by certain sublicensees of the technology subject to the license.

Under current market conditions, we have experienced increases in costs for raw materials and, notwithstanding air freight reimbursements for fulfillment of the U.S. government orders, increases in transportation costs. With increased volumes, our manufacturing unit costs have generally tended to decline. Factors that could affect our unit costs include

Table of Contents

increases in tariffs, costs by third party manufacturers, changing production volumes, costs of petroleum products, and transportation costs. Increases in such costs may not be recoverable through price increases of our products.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion may contain trend information and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Our actual future results could differ materially from our historical results of operations and those discussed in any forward-looking statements. All period references are to periods ended June 30, 2021 or 2020. Dollar amounts have been rounded for ease of reading.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020

Domestic sales, including sales to the U.S. government, accounted for 94.3% and 81.5% of the revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Domestic revenues increased 325.0% principally due to increased volumes primarily attributable to orders from the U.S. government. Domestic unit sales increased 226.0%. Domestic unit sales were 91.2% of total unit sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Domestic unit sales excluding the U.S. government rose approximately 20.7%. International revenues increased approximately $273 thousand due to an increase in products available for international shipment. Our international orders may be subject to significant fluctuation over time and may not be reflective of the full year’s sales. Overall unit sales increased 181.2%. Other than the U.S. government, our increased sales are predominantly attributable to existing customers as well as several new smaller customers who do not operate as distributors.

Cost of manufactured product increased 191.5% principally due to an increase in units sold. Royalty expense increased 173.3% due to increased gross sales.

Operating expenses increased 156.8% from the prior year. This is substantially due to increased headcount and other employee-related expenses, as well as consulting expenses. Each of these is attributable to the larger volume of orders and the expansion activities required by the TIA. Included in the increased employee expenses were employee bonuses of approximately $2.2 million and $1.3 million of share-based compensation expense. Sales and marketing expenses increased due to employee bonuses, increased headcount, lifting of travel restrictions, and an increase in GPO fees on the basis of the increase in sales.

Income from operations was $12.7 million compared to income from operations of $960 thousand for the same period last year. The increase was due to the increase in net revenues and resulting gross profit. In the second quarter of 2021, we also recorded a gain of $1.4 million to reflect the forgiveness of our PPP Loan.

Interest and other income decreased $972 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period last year principally due to a decrease in the unrealized gain on investments and a decrease in dividend income. Interest expense for the second quarter of 2021 increased by approximately $19 thousand from the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to imputed interest associated with amounts payable for the repurchase of preferred stock from former shareholders. See Note 7 to the financial statements for further discussion of the repurchase terms.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we released our valuation allowance for deferred tax assets recognizing approximately $1.8 million in deferred tax assets as well as a corresponding amount as a beneficial income tax provision.

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020

Domestic sales, including sales to the U.S. government, accounted for 96.0% and 78.0% of the revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Domestic revenues increased 399.9% principally due to increased volumes primarily attributable to orders from the U.S. government. Domestic unit sales increased 322.0%. Domestic unit sales were 93.6% of total unit sales for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Domestic unit sales excluding the U.S. government rose approximately 30.1%. International revenues decreased approximately $1.3 million. Our international orders may be subject to significant fluctuation over time and may not be reflective of the full year’s sales. Overall unit

Table of Contents

sales increased 227.3%. Other than the U.S. government, our increased sales are predominantly attributable to existing customers as well as several new smaller customers who do not operate as distributors.

Cost of manufactured product increased 186.6% principally due to an increase in units sold. Royalty expense increased 203.3% due to increased gross sales.

An increase in operating expenses of 100.3% over the previous year is primarily attributable to an increase in headcount, employee-related expenses, and consulting fees. These increases are due to the growth in order volume and expansion activities required by the TIA. Included in the increased employee expenses were bonuses and retroactive salary increases for the named executive officers of approximately $650 thousand, $2.2 million in other employee bonuses, and $1.3 million of share-based compensation expense. Sales and marketing expenses increased due to employee bonuses and an increase of GPO fees on the basis of the increase in sales.

Income from operations was $36.1 million compared to income from operations of $1.4 million for the same period last year. The increase was due to the increase in net revenues and resulting gross profit.

Interest and other income increased $364 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period last year principally due to unrealized gains from our investments. Interest expense for the first six months of 2021 increased by approximately $50 thousand from the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to imputed interest associated with amounts payable for the repurchase of preferred stock from former shareholders. See Note 7 to the financial statements for further discussion of the repurchase terms.

The 2021 recognition of the gain from the forgiveness PPP Loan and the 2020 release of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets discussed above likewise affect the comparability of the six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Discussion of Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Items

Cash comprises 12.8% of total assets. Cash flow from operations was $31.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Additionally, we have recorded a deferred tax asset of $6.6 million which is material to the adjustments to total cash flow from operations. The deferred tax asset represents amounts available to reduce income taxes payable on taxable income in future years.

During 2020, we engaged in private purchase agreements to purchase shares of outstanding preferred stock in exchange for cash consideration and the issuance of new common stock. In addition to payment in Common Stock, we paid cash consideration equaling $3,786,000, of which $482,670 was paid in 2020 with the remainder payable over a three-year period which began in February 2021. In February 2021, we paid the first of three installments of $1,101,110. Amounts payable as the result of our purchase of preferred stock comprises a small portion of the long-term liabilities set forth on our Balance Sheets. Amounts related to reimbursements from the U.S. government in connection with the TIA make up most of the long-term liabilities of $50.4 million.

Cash used by investing activities was $42.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due primarily to the purchase of property, plant and equipment and the purchase of equity securities. The $38.2 million impact to cash from the purchase of fixed assets primarily reflects down payments on orders for certain assets as discussed in Note 16 to the financial statements. Of the $38.2 million, $1.7 million was spent on assembly equipment outside the TIA reimbursement provisions. Additionally, we increased our invested cash position by approximately $4.5 million.

Cash provided by financing activities was $16.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This was primarily due to proceeds from the government under the TIA for down payments on our orders for fixed assets but was offset by payments under the preferred stock repurchase agreements from 2020.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historical Sources of Liquidity

We have historically funded operations primarily from the proceeds from revenues, private placements, litigation settlements, and loans.

Internal Sources of Liquidity

Margins

The mix of domestic and international sales affects the average sales price of our products. Generally, the higher the ratio of domestic sales to international sales, the higher the average sales price will be. Some international sales of our products are shipped directly from China to the customer. The number of units produced by us versus manufactured in China can have a significant effect on the carrying costs of Inventory as well as Cost of sales. Additionally, the effect of an overall increase in units sold also has a positive effect on margins. We will continue to evaluate the appropriate mix of products manufactured domestically and those manufactured in China to achieve economic benefits as well as to maintain our domestic manufacturing capability.

Cash Requirements

We have sufficient cash reserves, received a PPP Loan, and have begun to realize income from operations. We also have access to our investments which may be liquidated in the event that we need to access the funds for operations.

Contracts with the U.S. Government

As discussed above, we were awarded a material delivery order by the Department of Health and Human Services of the United States in the total amount of approximately $83.8 million, plus certain expedited freight expenses. In February 2021, we received another contract from the Department of Health and Human Services for additional safety syringes representing expected revenues and reimbursable freight costs of $54.2 million for a five-month period ending July 14, 2021 and approximately $92.8 million for a seven-month option period, but only four of such option periods have been exercised.

As discussed above, we entered into a TIA with the U.S. government for a total value of approximately $81.0 million in government funding for expanding our domestic production of needles and syringes. As of August 6, 2021, we have received approximately $47.0 million for down payments on the purchase of certain fixed assets. As of August 6, 2021, we have contributed approximately $5.8 million towards the completion of the new 55,000 square foot warehouse as a portion of the cost sharing agreement.

We received a PPP Loan, as described above, in the principal amount of $1.4 million. On May 13, 2021, we were informed that the entire original principal amount of $1.4 million would be forgiven.

We consider our investment portfolio a source of liquidity as well. As of June 30, 2021, $13.9 million was invested in third party securities.

Capital Resources

Since the execution of the TIA on July 1, 2020, we have begun construction for significant expansion to our facilities. As of June 30, 2021, we had substantially completed construction of expanded facilities consisting of approximately 27,800 square feet of additional controlled environment within existing properties and 55,000 square feet of new warehouse space. As of August 6, 2021, we have negotiated contracts for the purchase of automated assembly equipment, molds, and molding equipment, as well as portions of auxiliary equipment, under the original TIA and the

modification for approximately $68.5 million. To fund the purchase of the automated assembly equipment, auxiliary equipment, and construction of the controlled environment, we are reimbursed by the U.S. government according to the terms in the TIA. The TIA also allows us to request an advance of funds for larger purchases when necessary. The expenditures which are not reimbursable from the U.S. government under the TIA are funded with cash from operations. The capital assets funded by us under the TIA include the construction of the new warehouse as well as certain accessory equipment.

Additionally, we have engaged a construction company and architect to expand our existing administrative offices. We currently expect that the cost of expansion will be approximately $5.0 million and will be completed toward the end of March 2022. To date, we have spent approximately $204 thousand.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

We are responsible for developing estimates for amounts reported as assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Those estimates require that we develop assumptions of future events based on past experience and expectations of economic factors. Among the more critical estimates management makes is the estimate for customer rebates. The amount reported as a contractual allowance for rebates involves examination of past historical trends related of our sales to customers and the related credits issued once contractual obligations of the customers have been met. The establishment of a liability for future claims of rebates against sales in the current period requires that we have an understanding of the relevant sales with respect to product categories, sales distribution channels, and the likelihood of contractual obligations being satisfied. We examine the results of estimates against actual results historically and use the determination to further develop our basis for assumptions in future periods, as well as the accuracy of past estimates.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Management, with the participation of our President, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer, Thomas J. Shaw (the “CEO”), and our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, John W.
