Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1—Organization and Description of Business Operations

Verrica Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the "Company") was formed on July 3, 2013 and is incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Company is a dermatology therapeutics company developing and selling medications for skin diseases requiring medical intervention. On July 21, 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") approved YCANTH (VP-102) topical solution for the treatment of molluscum contagiosum in adult and pediatric patients two years of age and older.

Reverse Stock Split

At the close of trading on July 24, 2025, the Company effected areverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-10 shares of its common stock. As a result, every ten shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were automatically combined into one share. The reverse stock split affected all stockholders uniformly and did not alter any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company. This split reduced the number of issued shares of common stock from 92,650,404 shares to 9,265,034 shares of common stock. The number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding was reduced from 92,545,260 to 9,254,520.

No fractional shares were issued as a result of the reverse stock split and the split did not impact the par value of the Company's common stock. Any fractional shares that would otherwise have resulted from the reverse stock split were rounded down to the next whole share.

While the reverse stock split occurred subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the accompanying financial statements and footnotes have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the reverse stock split as though it had occurred in all periods presented.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has incurred substantial operating losses since inception and expects to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $316.6 million and had cash outflows from operations of $22.7 million for thesix months ended June 30, 2025. Based on the Company’s current business plan and current capital resources, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $15.4 million as of June 30, 2025, combined with the uncertainty regarding the availability of additional funding and considering its debt obligations, including a requirement to maintain cash, cash equivalents and investments of at least $10.0 million at all times, the Company has concluded that substantial doubt exists regarding its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued. The Company plans to address the conditions that raise substantial doubt regarding its 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. The 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 the carrying amounts and classification of recorded assets, liabilities and reported expenses that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional liquidity when needed or under acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, the Company would be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate commercialization efforts and development programs.

On June 27, 2025, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Collaboration and License Agreement (the "Second Amendment") with Torii Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ("Torii"), amending the Collaboration and License Agreement dated as of March 17, 2021, between the Company and Torii, as amended on May 14, 2024 (as amended, the "Torii Agreement"). The Second Amendment provided for the acceleration of an $8.0 million milestone payment which is presented as a license and collaboration receivable as of June 30, 2025. The $8.0 million milestone payment was paid to the Company in July 2025, following Torii's approval of the study plan and execution of the CRO agreement. The milestone payment was initially conditioned upon the dosing of the first patient as part of the Company's global Phase 3 program of VP-102 (TO-208 in Japan) in common warts (the "Phase 3 Program"), which it is sponsoring with Torii. Torii and the Company will equally split the cost of the Phase 3 Program, with Torii paying the first $40.0 million of out-of-pocket costs when due, and the Company repaying to Torii half of such costs over time. To repay its portion of the costs of the Phase 3 Program, the Company will offset amounts otherwise owed to Torii for future royalties, certain transfer price payments and remaining development milestones. To the extent that the cost of the Phase 3 Program exceeds $40.0 million, the Company will pay such excess costs, up to a specified maximum amount, and Torii will repay to the Company half of such costs. Torii will also pay to the Company a $10.0 million milestone payment (triggered upon the approval of TO-208, referred to as YCANTH in the U.S., for molluscum contagiosum in Japan), in cash, rather than as an offset to the Phase 3 Program as originally contemplated under the Torii Agreement. In addition, the Company will initiate a manufacturing transfer to Torii, expected to take several years, for Torii to be able to produce YCANTH (TO-208) applicators to be sold in Japan. In the interim, the Company will continueto receive from Torii a transfer price for applicators manufactured by the Company's manufacturing partners. After the transfer of at least one component of the manufacturing process, the Company will begin receiving royalties related to net sales in Japan of applicators manufactured by Torii and/or its manufacturing partners in lieu of the transfer price for completed applicators.

The Company plans to secure additional capital in the future through equity or debt financings, partnerships, or other sources to carry out the Company’s planned commercial and development activities. If the Company is unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, the Company would be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate continued commercialization efforts or research and development programs. In addition, the amount of proceeds the Company may be able to raise pursuant to its currently effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 is limited. The Company is subject to the general instructions of Form S-3 known as the "baby shelf rules." Under these rules, the amount of funds the Company can raise through primary public offerings of securities in any 12-month period using its registration statement on Form S-3 is limited to one-third of the aggregate market value of the shares of the Company's common stock held by its non-affiliates. Therefore, the Company will be limited in the amount of proceeds it is able to raise by selling its securities using its Form S-3 until such time as the Company's public float exceeds $75.0 million.

On July 26, 2023, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement, pursuant to which the Company borrowed $50.0 million under the Loan Facility (as defined in Note 10)resulting in net proceeds of approximately $44.1 million after payment of certain fees and transaction related expenses. Amounts borrowed under the Loan Facility will mature on July 26, 2028, and payments of principal were originally not required under the Credit Agreement. Based on the Company's net revenue attributable to YCANTH on a trailing 12-month basis not meeting a specified amount set forth in the Credit Agreement (as amended) as of December 31, 2024, the Company became obligated to start making principal payments starting in January 2025. The Company is obligated to repay the principal amount of the loan on the last day of each month in equal monthly installments through the maturity date, together with the applicable repayment premium, the exit fee and interest.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to, nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts; material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty; failure to perform or observe covenants; cross-defaults with certain other indebtedness; bankruptcy and insolvency events; material monetary judgment defaults; impairment of any material definitive loan documentation; other material adverse effects; key permit and other regulatory events; key person events; and change of control. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant that the Company must maintain a liquidity of at least $10.0 million and that the Company’s quarterly and annual finan cial statements not be subject to any qualification or statement which is of a "going concern" or similar nature. On June 10, 2025, the requirement to deliver financial statements that are not subject to a qualification of a "going concern" was waived for the financial statements for the quarters ending June 30, 2025, September 30, 2025 and the quarter and the year ending December 31, 2025. If the requirement to deliver financial statements that are not subject to a qualification of a "going concern" is not waived for additional future periods or if additional financing is not raised to meet the liquidity test, the Company may be in default of the Credit Agreement in the near-term. Upon the occurrence of an event of default (subject to notice and grace periods), additional interest of 4% per annum applies and obligations under the Credit Agreement could be accelerated. As of June 30, 2025, the Company is in compliance with all applicable covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative United States generally accepted accounting principles as found in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") and Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with US GAAP for interim information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed as part of the Company's Annual Report.

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial information for the interim periods. However, the results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, historical experience as well as other pertinent industry and regulatory authority information, results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and actual results, the Company’s future results of operations will beaffected.

Segments

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 "CODM" in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance.

The Company views its operations and manages its business inone operating segment engaged in developing and selling medications for skin diseases requiring medical intervention. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), as the CODM, regularly reviews the entity-wide financial and operational performance as a single unit. No financial information is disaggregated into separate lines of businesses and the Company does not differentiate the activities of its headquarters from the overall performance of the Company. The CEO makes resource allocation and business process decisions regarding the overall level of resources available and how to best deploy these resources.

The single segment’s principal measure of segment profit and loss is consolidated net income (loss). The CEO considers actual and forecasted consolidated revenues, significant expenses, and consolidated net loss when evaluating performance. Significant expenses are amounts that are regularly provided to the CEO and included in consolidated net loss and include selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses.

The table below summarizes the significant revenue and expense categories regularly reviewed by the CEO for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less at acquisition to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in banks and money market mutual funds.

Cash and cash equivalents are financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk. The Company’s deposits are in accounts at large financial institutions, and amounts may exceed federally insured limits. The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial strength of the depository institutions in which the funds are held. The Company hasno financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of loss.

Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025, includes a cash deposit of$0.2 million with Bank of America as required under the Commercial Credit Card Program with a balance equal to the outstanding credit limit on commercial credit cards.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Credit Risk

As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s financial instruments included cash equivalents, accounts payable, and notes payable. The carrying amount of cash equivalents and accounts payable approximated fair value, given their short-term nature. The carrying value of the Company's long term note payable (Note 10) approximates fair value as the interest rate is reflective of current market rates on debt with similar terms and conditions.

Cash equivalents subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. However, the Company invests its cash in accordance with a policy objective that seeks to ensure both liquidity and safety of principal. The policy limits investments to instruments issued by the U.S. government, certain SEC registered money market funds that invest only in U.S. government obligations and various other low-risk liquid investment options, and places restrictions on portfolio maturity terms.

Accounts receivable trade subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk as all of the Company's revenue is from sales of a single product, YCANTH (VP-102), sold to several pharmaceutical wholesalers/distributors (the "Customers").

Accounts Receivable

The Company had$9.2 million in accounts receivable as of June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the Company hadno allowance for credit losses. An allowance for credit losses is determined based on the Company's assessment of the creditworthiness and financial condition of its customers, aging of receivables, as well as the general economic environment. Any allowance would reduce the net receivables to the amount that is expected to be collected. Current payment terms for YCANTH (VP-102) are generally 60 days from the shipment date.

Inventory

The Company values inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory cost is determined using the specific identification method. The Company regularly reviews its inventory quantities and, when appropriate, records a provision for obsolete and excess inventory to derive the new cost basis, which takes into account the Company’s sales forecast and corresponding expiry dates. The Company didnot recognize any material obsolete inventory costs as cost of product revenue for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, due to the expiration of Product (as defined below).

Financial Instruments – Derivatives

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if the financial instrument itself or any embedded components of a financial instrument potentially qualify as derivatives required to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 815 -Derivatives and Hedging.

The derivative liability relates to a bifurcated settlement feature of the Company’s OrbiMed Credit Agreement (Note 10). The derivative liability is subject to re-measurement at each reporting period, at each balance sheet date and any change in fair value is recognized as a component of change in fair value of derivative liability in the statements of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the final repayment of the Term Loan.

Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue from sales of a single product, YCANTH (VP-102) (the "Product") in accordance with ASC Topic 606 –Revenue from Contracts with Customers. YCANTH (VP-102) became available for commercial sale and shipment to patients with a prescription in the United States in the third quarter of 2023. The Company sells the Product to Customers who in turn sell the Product directly to clinics, hospitals, and federal healthcare programs. Revenue is recognized as the Product is physically delivered to the Customers.

Gross product sales are reduced by corresponding gross-to-net ("GTN") estimates using the expected value method, resulting in the Company’s reported “Product revenue, net” in the accompanying statements of operations. Product revenue, net reflects the amount the Company ultimately expects to realize in net cash proceeds, taking into account the current period gross sales and related cash receipts and the subsequent cash disbursements on these sales that the Company estimates for the various GTN categories discussed below. The GTN estimates are based upon information received from external sources, such as written or oral information obtained from our customers with respect to their period-end inventory levels and sales to end-users during the period, in combination with management’s informed judgments. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, the actual amount of product returns, government chargebacks, prompt pay discounts, commercial rebates, Medicaid rebates, co-pay assistance and distribution, data, and group purchasing organizations ("GPO") administrative fees may be materially above or below the amount estimated. Variance between actual amounts and estimated amounts may result in prospective adjustments to reported net product revenue.

Each of the GTN estimate categories are discussed below:

Product Returns Allowances: The Customers are contractually permitted to return purchased Product in certain circumstances. The Company records discrete reserves if Product held by customers, forecasted sales and expiration of Product warrant a reserve. As historical data for returns of the Product becomes available over time, the Company will utilize historical return rates of the Product in making its estimates. Returned Product is typically destroyed, since substantially all returns are due to expiry and cannot be resold.

Government Chargebacks: The Product is subject to pricing limits under certain federal government programs, including Medicare and the 340B drug pricing program. Qualifying entities (the "End-Users") purchase the Product from the Customers at their applicable qualifying discounted price. The chargeback amount the Company incurs represents the difference between the Company’s contractual sales price to the Customers and the end-user’s applicable discounted purchase price under the government program.

Medicaid Rebates: The Product is subject to state government-managed Medicaid programs, whereby rebates are issued to participating state governments. These rebates arise when a patient treated with the Product is covered under Medicaid, resulting in a discounted price for the Product under the applicable Medicaid program. The Medicaid rebate accrual calculations require the Company to project the magnitude of its sales, by state, that will be subject to these rebates.

Patient Assistance: The Company offers a voluntary co-pay patient assistance program intended to provide financial assistance to eligible patients with a prescription drug co-payment required by payors and coupon programs for cash payors. The calculation of the current liability for this assistance is based on an estimate of claims and the cost per claim that the Company expects to receive associated with YCANTH (VP-102) that has been recognized as revenue but remains in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period.

Distribution, Data, and GPO Administrative Fees: Distribution, data, and GPO administrative fees are paid to authorized wholesalers/distributors of the Company’s products for various commercial services including contract administration, inventory management, delivery of end-user sales data, and product returns processing. These fees are based on a contractually-determined percentage of the Company’s applicable sales.

Collaboration Revenues

The Company has generated collaboration revenue through its licensing and collaboration arrangements. The terms of the arrangements typically include payments to the Company of one or more of the following: nonrefundable, up-front license fees; regulatory and commercial milestone payments; payments for manufacturing supply services; materials shipped to support development; and royalties on net sales of licensed products.

In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements, the Company performs the following steps:

(i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract;

(ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract;

(iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration;

(iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and

(v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company’s revenue arrangements may include the following:

Up-front License Fees: If a license is determined to be distinct from the other performance obligations identified in the arrangement, the Company recognizes revenues from non-refundable, up-front fees allocated to the license when the license is transferred to the licensee and the licensee is able to use and benefit from the license. For licenses that are bundled with other promises, the Company utilizes judgment to assess the nature of the combined performance obligation to determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time and, if over time, the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from non-refundable, up-front fees. The Company evaluates the measure of progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjusts the measure of performance and related revenue recognition.

Milestone Payments: At the inception of an agreement that includes regulatory or commercial milestone payments, the Company evaluates whether each milestone is considered probable of being achieved and estimates the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the associated milestone value is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within the control of the Company or the licensee, such as regulatory approvals, are not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. At each reporting period, the Company assesses the probability of achievement of each milestone under its current agreements. The Company recognized $8.0 millionin development milestone revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2025 because it became probable thata development milestone would be met and that a significant reversal of revenue would not occur related to the previously constrained portion of the transaction price.

Royalties: If the Company is entitled to receive sales-based royalties from its collaborator, including milestone payments based on the level of sales, and the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties relate, the Company recognizes revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, provided the reported sales are reliably measurable, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

Manufacturing Supply and Research Services: Arrangements that include a promise for supply of drug substance or drug product for either clinical development or commercial supply at the licensee’s discretion are generally considered as options. The Company assesses if these options provide a material right to the licensee and if so, they are accounted for as separate performance obligations. If not, the supply services are recognized as collaboration revenue as the Company provides the services.

The Company receives payments from its licensees based on schedules established in each contract. Amounts are recorded as accounts receivable when the Company’s right to consideration is unconditional. The Company does not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component if the expectation at contract inception is such that the period between payment by the licensees and the transfer of the promised goods or services to the licensees will be one year or less.

Deferred Revenue: The Company records deferred revenue when a customer prepays for goods or services, or when the Company has an unconditional right to bill but has not yet delivered the performance obligation. Deferred revenue is primarily comprised of deposits on customer product orders yet to be delivered. The Company expects to recognize all of the deferred revenue within the next 6 months.

Cost of product revenue includes the cost of inventory sold, which includes direct manufacturing, production and packaging materials for YCANTH (VP-102) sales.

Cost of collaboration revenue consisted of supplies and development activity with Torii.

Fair Value Measurement

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, provides guidance on the development and disclosure of fair value measurements. Under this accounting guidance, fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.

The accounting guidance classifies fair value measurements in one of the following three categories for disclosure purposes:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 prices for similar assets or liabilities that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and values determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

At June 30, 2025, the Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and a derivative liability. The carrying amount of accounts payable, accounts receivable and accrued expenses approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Notes payable are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

The following table presents the Company’s fair value information for liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company hadno liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2024.

The following is a rollforward of the derivative liability:

The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liability using a lattice model with an interest rate lattice consistent with the Hull-White model. The derivative liability was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs. The key inputs into the lattice model for the derivative liability were as follows:

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period including pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock that were issued in an underwritten offering in February 2023 and November 2024 (Note 7). The pre-funded warrants to purchase common stock are included in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share as the exercise price of$0.0001 per share is non-substantive and is virtually assured. Diluted net income (loss) per share includes the effect from the potential exercise of securities, such as stock options, unvested restricted stock units, and common stock warrants, which would result in the issuance of incremental shares of common stock, using the treasury stock method. Potential shares of common stock are excluded from the diluted per share calculation when their effect is anti-dilutive, including in periods of net loss or when inclusion does not result in a decrease in earnings per share.

The table below provides potential shares outstanding that were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share, as the inclusion of these securities would have been anti-dilutive:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is intended to improve income tax disclosure requirements by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) the disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The guidance makes several other changes to the income tax disclosure requirements as well. The guidance in ASU 2023-09 will be effective for annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on its financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on its financial statements and disclosures.

Note 6—Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

On June 6, 2022, plaintiff Kranthi Gorlamari ("Plaintiff") filed a putative class action complaint captioned Gorlamari v. Verrica Pharmaceuticals Inc., et al., in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against us and certain of our current and former officers and directors ("Defendants"). On January 12, 2023, the Plaintiff filed an amended complaint alleging that Defendants violated federal securities laws by, among other things, failing to disclose certain manufacturing deficiencies at the facility where our contract manufacturer produced bulk solution for the YCANTH (VP-102) drug device and that such deficiencies posed a risk to the prospects for regulatory approval of YCANTH (VP-102) for the treatment of molluscum. The amended complaint seeks unspecified compensatory damages and other relief on behalf of Plaintiff and all other persons and entities which purchased or otherwise acquired our securities between May 19, 2021 and May 24, 2022 (the "Putative Class Period").

On January 12, 2024, the Court granted in part and denied in part Defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The Court held that Plaintiff’s claims relating to statements made in May and June 2021 were sufficiently pled, but dismissed Plaintiff’s claims relating to all other statements made during the Putative Class Period. On January 26, 2024, Plaintiff filed a second amended complaint in an attempt to cure certain of the deficiencies identified in the January 12, 2024 ruling. Defendants’ motion to dismiss the second amended complaint was fully briefed as of April 22, 2024. On September 3, 2024, the Court granted in part and denied in part Defendants’ motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. The Court dismissed Plaintiff’s claims related to one of the two individual defendants but held that Plaintiff’s claims against the Company and the other individual defendant were sufficiently pled.

In addition, on October 21, 2024, May 12, 2025, and June 26, 2025, plaintiffs Ivan S. Cohen, Paul Cannon, and Joseph Bonaccorso, respectively, each filed a putative stockholder derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Each derivative complaint names the company as a nominal defendant and purports to bring claims on behalf of the company against certain of our current and former directors and officers for alleged violations of the federal securities laws and breaches of their fiduciary duties in relation to substantially the same factual allegations as the above-described putative class action lawsuit. Each derivative complaint primarily seeks to recover for the company compensatory damages for losses allegedly sustained related to the facts alleged, restitution, and punitive damages. On December 16, 2024, the Court granted the parties' joint stipulation to stay the Cohen derivative lawsuit. On July 21, 2025, the Court granted the parties' joint stipulation in the Cohen and Cannon derivative lawsuits to consolidate the two actions and stay the consolidated action. On July 24, 2025, the plaintiff in the Bonaccorso derivative lawsuit filed a corrected complaint to clarify that the named plaintiff "is not Joseph (Joe) Bonaccorso, the former Chief Commercial Officer" of the Company. On July 29, 2025, the plaintiff in the Bonaccorso derivative lawsuit filed a notice voluntarily dismissing the action without prejudice.

The Company is also involved in ordinary, routine legal proceedings that are not considered by management to be material. In the opinion of Company counsel and management, the ultimate liabilities resulting from such legal proceedings will not materially affect the financial position of the Company or its results of operations or cash flows.

Note 7—Stockholders’ Deficit

Common Stock

The Company had authorized 200,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. Common stock owners are entitled to dividends when funds are legally available and declared by the Board.

November 2024 Offering

In November 2024, the Company sold 4,551,824 shares of its common stock, and in lieu of common stock to certain investors, pre-funded warrants to purchase 223,595 shares of its common stock, with accompanying Series A warrants to purchase 2,387,703 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $10.68 per share of common stock and Series B warrants to purchase 2,387,703 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $13.35 per share of common stock (the "November 2024 Offering").
