Proposed Asset Sale
Current report
On November 8, 2026, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") with CorMedix, pursuant to which it has agreed to sell substantially all of its assets to CorMedix, other than certain excluded assets, including its federal income tax net operating loss carryforwards (the "NOLs") and certain other tax attributes, and CorMedix has agreed to acquire those assets and assume certain liabilities of the Company as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Sale"). As consideration for the Asset Sale, CorMedix has agreed to (i) issue to the Company 14,583,333 shares of CorMedix common stock, (ii) pay to the Company a purchase price equal to $145.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments for the Company's closing cash and net working capital as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, of which $2.0 million will be deposited into escrow, at the closing of the Asset Sale to secure post-closing adjustments to the cash consideration, which post-closing adjustments may not exceed $10.0 million in either direction, (iii) pay to the Company royalties equal to 5.0% of the amount, if any, by which aggregate annual net sales of CINVANTI, SUSTOL and the products covered by the Company's multi-product Development and License Agreement (the "License Agreement") with Long Grove Pharmaceuticals, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Long Grove"), exceed $25.0 million in each of calendar years 2027, 2028 and 2029, if and when payable, on the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, (iv) pay to the Company earn-out payments of $25.0 million if net sales of ZYNRELEF for calendar year 2028 equal or exceed $65.0 million and an additional $30.0 million if such net sales equal or exceed $95.0 million, payable at CorMedix’s election in cash, shares of CorMedix common stock or a combination thereof (provided that any portion that would cause the aggregate shares of CorMedix common stock issued under the Asset Purchase Agreement to exceed 19.9% of the CorMedix common stock outstanding as of the closing of the Asset Sale will be paid in cash), if and when payable, on the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement and (v) assume certain of the Company's liabilities as specified in the Asset Purchase Agreement.
Current report
The Asset Sale, which has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of the Company (the "Board"), is currently expected to close in the first quarter of 2027, subject to approval by the Company's stockholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. The Asset Purchase Agreement contains certain termination rights in favor of each of the Company and CorMedix. In addition, the Asset Purchase Agreement provides that, in connection with certain terminations of the Asset Purchase Agreement, depending on the circumstances surrounding the termination, one party may be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $4.0 million.
Current report
If the Asset Sale closes, the Company will exit the operation of its current biotechnology business and other historical operations, but it does not intend to liquidate and will remain a publicly traded company. The Company will retain other material assets following the closing of the Asset Sale, including the shares of CorMedix common stock issued to the Company in the Asset Sale, the right to receive future royalties, earn-out payments, significant NOLs and cash on hand. Following the closing of the Asset Sale, the Board intends to actively evaluate various strategic transactions and opportunities for the use of the proceeds of the Asset Sale, including acquiring or investing in additional businesses or assets, which may or may not be pharmaceutical or biotechnology businesses or assets. Such opportunities may include, but are not limited to, the acquisition of products, product candidates, milestone payments and royalty streams, programs or technologies as well as pursuing strategic alliances, joint ventures, investments in complementary businesses, out-licensing and in-licensing agreements, divestitures or other transactions. It is currently uncertain what businesses or assets the Company may acquire or invest in following the closing of the Asset Sale, and the Board intends to evaluate opportunities to create value for the benefit of stockholders.

Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 and 2025
Current report
The decrease in cost of product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025, is primarily attributable to a reduction in inventory reserves recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025 of $1.7 million and a reduction in the units sold during the three months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025 of $1.1 million.
Current report
The increase in cost of product sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025, is primarily attributable to an increase in units sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025 of $2.0 million, offset by a reduction in inventory reserves recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025 of $1.0 million.
Current report
Research and development expense decreased by $0.5 million or 5.7% during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $0.7 million decrease in personnel and related expenses due to lower headcount and a decrease in expense with external vendors of $0.2 million due to timing. These decreases were offset by the expense for the first regulatory milestone with Long Grove of $0.5 million.
Current report
Sales and marketing expense decreased by $0.4 million or 3.3% during the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.4 million decrease in expense with external vendors, due to timing. This decrease was offset by a $0.4 million increase in marketing spend related to ZYNRELEF and a $0.5 million increase in personnel and related cost due to an increase in headcount.
Current report
Based on our current operating plan and projections, management believes that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for operations for at least one year from the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, our Working Capital Facility Agreement contains a minimum cash covenant, a minimum revenue covenant and a minimum EBITDA covenant. Based on our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and without additional funding from the closing of the Asset Sale or otherwise, there is a possibility we may not satisfy one or more covenants under our Working Capital Facility Agreement within the next twelve months, absent a waiver, consent or amendment under our Working Capital Facility Agreement. If an event of default occurs under the Working Capital Facility Agreement due to the failure to satisfy certain covenants, our lenders could declare all outstanding principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest and end of term fee, to be immediately due and payable. If the payment of the debt is accelerated, absent any additional funding, cash flows from our operations will be insufficient to repay such debt in full. Therefore, if all outstanding amounts under the Working Capital Facility Agreement are accelerated, management expects there will be substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. If an event of default occurs under the note purchase agreement in connection with the 2031 Convertible Notes (the "2031 Convertible Notes Purchase Agreement") due to the acceleration of all outstanding amounts under the Working Capital Facility Agreement, the required purchasers under the 2031 Convertible Notes Purchase Agreement could also declare the acceleration of all outstanding amounts under the 2031 Convertible Notes, subject to applicable notice requirements and cure periods.
Current report
Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, a portion of the cash consideration in the Asset Sale will be used to repay all amounts outstanding under the Working Capital Facility Agreement. A portion of the stock consideration in the Asset Sale will be used to exchange all or a portion of the outstanding 2031 Convertible Notes as described in Note 8 - Long-Term Debt and Convertible Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The completion of the Asset Sale is subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining stockholder approval or closing the Asset Sale on the anticipated timeline, on the terms currently contemplated, or at all.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025
Previous report
The increase in cost of product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025, is primarily attributable to an increase of $0.5 million of inventory reserves and write-offs recorded and an increase of $1.2 million in the cost of units sold, primarily due to the increase in number of units sold and supplier mix.
Previous report
The increase in cost of product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025, is primarily attributable to an increase of $0.8 million of inventory reserves and write-offs recorded and an increase of $3.1 million in the cost of units sold, primarily due the increase in number of units sold and supplier mix.
Previous report
Research and development expense decreased by $0.1 million or 2.4%, during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in personnel expense of $0.3 million as a result of reduction in headcount and a decrease in asset write-offs of $0.1 million recorded in 2025 for which there was no similar expense in 2026, offset by an increase in expense with vendors of $0.2 million, due to timing.
Previous report
Sales and marketing expense increased by $4.6 million or 19.2%, during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in personnel expense of $2.6 million related to an increase in headcount and an increase in marketing spend, primarily related to ZYNRELEF, of $2.0 million.
Previous report
Subsequent to the receipt of the Fourth Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement (described further below) and based on our current operating plan and projections, management believes that the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet the Company's anticipated cash requirements for a period of at least one year from the issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect, which would have a material impact on our operations.
Previous report
Future Funding Requirements
Previous report
We continuously evaluate our liquidity and capital resources, including access to external capital, in light of current economic and market conditions and our operational performance. Our future cash requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, primarily including our ability to generate revenue and the scope and costs of our commercial and research and development activities.
Previous report
Our Working Capital Facility Agreement contains a minimum cash covenant, a minimum revenue covenant and a minimum EBITDA covenant. In the event of a default under the Working Capital Facility Agreement or any future debt agreement, our lenders could declare all outstanding principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, to be immediately due and payable. If the payment of the debt is accelerated, cash flows from our operations may be insufficient to repay such debt in full. On August 7, 2026, we entered into a Waiver, Consent, and Fourth Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement (the “Fourth Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement”) to the Initial Working Capital Facility Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement, the Second Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement and the Third Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement. The Fourth Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement, among other things, (a) waives the minimum revenue and minimum EBITDA financial covenants for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2026 and (b) amends the Working Capital Facility Agreement to (i) require a prepayment by the Company of $17,500,000 in principal amount outstanding under the Working Capital Facility Agreement (the “Prepayment”), consisting of a $13,500,000 prepayment made upon effectiveness of the Fourth Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement and a second prepayment of up to $4,000,000 due on or before September 15, 2026 (which second prepayment may be reduced, including to zero, if certain conditions set forth therein are met), together with End of Term Fees of $661,500 and up to $196,000, respectively, plus accrued PIK Interest (as defined under the Fourth Amendment to the Working Capital Facility Agreement) due on such Prepayment with any fees associated with the Prepayment to be waived, (ii) eliminate the future availability of $20.0 million through December 15, 2026 (“tranche 2”) and $20.0 million through September 30, 2027 (“tranche 3”), (iii) revises the minimum revenue covenant, the minimum EBITDA covenant and the minimum cash covenant effective as of the reporting period ending August 31, 2026, (iv) permits the Company to enter into an agreement for certain products, subject to the lenders' approval of the final terms, and (v) includes certain other covenants regarding other potential strategic transactions. A failure to comply with the covenants under our Working Capital Facility Agreement in future periods could result in an event of default unless further waivers or amendments are obtained, of which there is no assurance.

ZYNRELEF is a dual-acting local anesthetic that delivers a fixed-dose combination of the local anesthetic bupivacaine and a low dose of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug meloxicam. ZYNRELEF is the first and only modified-release local anesthetic to be classified by the FDA as an extended-release product because ZYNRELEF demonstrated in Phase 3 studies significantly reduced pain and significantly increased proportion of patients requiring no opioids through the first 72 hours following surgery compared to bupivacaine solution, the current standard-of-care local anesthetic for postoperative pain control.
