As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $29.6 million. Based on our current business plan and current capital resources, combined with the uncertainty regarding the availability of additional funding and considering our debt obligations, including a requirement to maintain cash, cash equivalents and investments of at least $10.0 million at all times, we have concluded that there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued. We have incurred substantial operating losses since inception and expect to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As of March 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $316.8 million. Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Previous wording
Cost of product revenue includes the cost of inventory sold, which includes direct manufacturing and supply chain costs. Prior to FDA approval, all product purchased from such suppliers was included as a component of research and development expense, as we were unable to assert that the inventory had future economic benefit until YCANTH (VP-102) received FDA approval. Pursuant to the supply agreement, we purchased and included in research and development expenses approximately $4.5 million of raw cantharidin and processed active pharmaceutical ingredient, or API. The raw cantharidin and processed API is sufficient to produce approximately 14 million finished drug product applicators to be used for commercially saleable product and other YCANTH (VP-102) product candidates. In addition, we purchased other components and services related to YCANTH (VP-102) for commercially saleable product and included approximately $1.2 million in research and development expenses prior to FDA approval. As a result, cost of product revenue related to YCANTH (VP-102) will initially reflect a lower average per unit cost of materials over approximately the next year as previously expensed inventory is utilized for commercial production and sold to customers. If we included those costs previously expensed as a component of cost of product revenue, our cost of product revenue for each of the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 would have been $0.7 million, including $0.3 million of obsolete inventory costs in both periods.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash used by financing activities of $8.2 million was primarily due to the repayment of debt related to the Credit Agreement.
Previous wording
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used by financing activities of $0.7 million was primarily due to $0.5 million of debt amendment costs paid related to the Credit Agreement.
Current wording
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, net cash used by financing activities of $1.3 million was primarily due to $1.1 million of debt amendment costs paid related to the Credit Agreement.
Previous wording
We have incurred substantial operating losses since inception and expect to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As of March 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $316.8 million. We believe our cash, and cash equivalents of $29.6 million as of March 31, 2025 will be sufficient to support our planned operations into the third quarter of 2025. Based on our current business plan and current capital resources, combined with the uncertainty regarding the availability of additional funding and considering our debt obligations, including a requirement to maintain cash, cash equivalents and investments of at least $10.0 million at all times, we have concluded there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued. We plan to address the conditions that raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern by, among other things, obtaining additional funding through equity offerings, debt financing and refinancings, collaborations, strategic alliances and/or licensing arrangements. While beyond our control, the milestone payment of $8.0 million due from Torii upon the first patient dosed in Japan in the Phase 3 program, and/or the exercise of the Series A Warrants issued in conjunction with the November 2024 Equity Financing, which have an exercise price of $1.0680 per share and expire in November 2025 may result in additional liquidity during 2025 and alleviate the substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot predict with certainty that these funds will be received and alleviate the substantial doubt. Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result should we be unable to continue as a going concern. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our capital resources sooner than we expect. Our future capital requirements, and timing, will depend on many factors, including:

As of June 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $316.6 million. We believe our cash, and cash equivalents of $15.4 million as of June 30, 2025 and the $8.0 million milestone payment received from Torii in July 2025 will be sufficient to support our planned operations into the fourth quarter of 2025.

While beyond our control, we could receive (A) a $10.0 million milestone payment for regulatory approval of YCANTH (TO-208) in Japan for the treatment of molluscum, which may occur before the end of 2025, and (B) up to $25.0 million upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants issued in conjunction with the November 2024 Equity Financing, which have an exercise price of $10.68 per share and expire in November 2025. Either of these may result in additional liquidity during 2025 and alleviate the substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
