Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

(Unaudited)

(1) Background

Business

Baudax Bio, Inc. (“Baudax Bio” or the “Company”) is a pharmaceutical company primarily focused on innovative products for hospital and related acute care settings. Baudax Bio believes it can bring valuable therapeutic options to patients, prescribers and payers, such as its lead product, ANJESO® (meloxicam) injection, to the hospital and acute care markets.

Baudax Bio launched ANJESO, which is indicated for the management of moderate to severe pain, in 2020. ANJESO is currently approved for use within the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, Indian Health Service, 340B covered entities, and multiple state Medicaid programs.

The Company has determined that it operates in a single segment involved in innovative products for hospital and other acute care settings.

The Separation

Pursuant to the Separation Agreement between Societal CDMO, Inc. (“Societal CDMO”), formerly Recro Pharma, Inc., and Baudax Bio, Societal CDMO transferred the assets, liabilities, and operations of its Acute Care business to the Company (the “Separation”) and, on November 21, 2019, the distribution date, each Societal CDMO shareholder received one share of the Company’s common stock for every two and one-half shares of Societal CDMO common stock held of record at the close of business on November 15, 2019, the record date for the distribution (the “Distribution”). Following the Distribution and Separation, Baudax Bio operates as a separate, independent company.

Reverse Stock Split

On February 16, 2022, the Company effected a reverse split of shares of the Company’s common stock on a 1-for-35 basis (the “Reverse Stock Split”). All issued and outstanding shares of common stock, warrants, common stock options, and unvested restricted stock units and the related per share amounts contained in the financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented. The par value and authorized shares of common stock were not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Additionally, the authorized, issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock and their related per share amount, other than the conversion price per share, was not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

(2) Development-Stage Risks, Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows since inception and has an accumulated deficit of $144,898 as of March 31, 2022.

The Company has raised funds from debt and equity transactions and will be required to raise additional funds to continue to operate as a standalone entity. In order to fund development activities, clinical and pre-clinical testing, modest commercialization of ANJESO and, if approved, commercialization of the Company’s other product candidates, the Company will require significant additional funding. The Company could delay clinical trial activity or reduce funding of specific programs in order to reduce cash needs. Insufficient funds may cause the Company to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of its development, commercialization, or expansion activities. The Company may raise such funds, if available, through debt financings, bank or other loans, through strategic research and development, licensing (including out-licensing) and/or marketing arrangements or through public or private sales of equity or debt securities from time to time. Financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and failure to raise capital when needed could materially adversely impact the Company’s growth plans and its financial condition or results of operations. Additional debt or equity financing, if available, may be dilutive to holders of the Company’s common stock and may involve significant cash payment obligations and covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to operate its business.

BAUDAX BIO, INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

(Unaudited)

The Company follows the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Topic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern”, or ASC 205-40, which requires management to assess the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued. Based on the Company’s available cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2022, management has concluded that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date these financial statements are issued. The Company expects to seek additional funding to sustain its future operations and while the Company has successfully raised capital in the past, the ability to raise capital in future periods is not assured. The Company is not expected to be able to maintain its minimum liquidity covenant over the next twelve months without additional inflows of funds or capital financing. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(3) Summary of Significant Accounting Principles

(a) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), for interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments (which consist primarily of accruals, estimates and assumptions that impact the financial statements) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s results for the interim periods. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and related notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Form 10-K.

(b) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and the notes to the financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 from such estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents represents cash in banks and highly liquid short-term investments that have maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. These highly liquid short-term investments are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near to their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of the changes in interest rates.

(d) Short-Term Investments

Short-term investments generally consist of government money market funds and commercial paper with maturity of greater than three months when acquired and does not meet the definition of a cash or cash equivalents. The Company has historically classified its entire investment portfolio as available-for-sale securities and is carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in comprehensive loss in the consolidated statement of operations and realized gains and losses included in other income/expense, if applicable.

The Company uses benchmark inputs and industry standard analytical models to derive the fair value of its commercial paper.

(Unaudited)

(e) Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are as follows: three to seven years for furniture and office equipment; six to ten years for manufacturing equipment; and the shorter of the remaining lease term or useful life for leasehold improvements. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

(f) Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired by the Company. Goodwill is not amortized but assessed for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. The impairment model prescribes a one-step method for determining impairment.

The one-step quantitative test calculates the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The Company has one reporting unit.

The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test as of November 30th, or whenever an event or change in circumstances occurs that would require reassessment of the recoverability of goodwill. In performing the evaluation, the Company assesses qualitative factors such as overall financial performance of its reporting unit, anticipated changes in industry and market conditions, including recent tax reform, intellectual property protection, and competitive environments. The Company performed an impairment test as of March 31, 2022 after identifying indicators of impairment. There was no impairment to goodwill based on the analysis.

The Company’s intangible asset is classified as an asset resulting from R&D activities. The Company determined the useful life of its asset resulting from R&D activities to be approximately 10 years, which is based on the remaining patent life and is being amortized on a straight-line basis. The Company is required to review the carrying value of assets resulting from R&D activities for recoverability whenever events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. The Company performed an impairment test as of March 31, 2022 after identifying indicators of impairment. There was no impairment to intangible assets based on the analysis as of March 31, 2022.

(g) Revenue Recognition

Subsequent to regulatory approval for ANJESO from the FDA, the Company began selling ANJESO in the U.S. through a single third-party logistics provider (“3PL”), which takes title to and control of the goods. The Company recognizes revenue from ANJESO product sales at the point the title to the product is transferred to the customer and the customer obtains control of the product. The transaction price that is recognized as revenue for products includes an estimate of variable consideration for reserves, which result from discounts, returns, chargebacks, rebates, and other allowances that are offered within contracts between the Company and end-user customers, wholesalers, group purchasing organizations and other indirect customers. The Company’s payment terms are generally between thirty to ninety days.

The Company’s estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of its anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available. These reserves reflect the Company’s best estimate of the amount of consideration to which the Company is entitled based on the terms of the contracts. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price may be constrained and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that is considered probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company’s estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the Company’s estimates, the Company will adjust these estimates, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

(h) Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and accounts receivable. The Company manages its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments based on established guidelines relative to diversification and maturities to maintain safety and liquidity. The Company’s accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is compromised solely from transactions with the Company’s 3PL.

(i) Research and Development

Research and development costs for the Company’s proprietary products/product candidates are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development expenses consist of internal costs and funds paid to third parties for the provision of services for pre-commercialization and manufacturing scale-up activities, drug development, pre-clinical activities, clinical trials, statistical analysis, and report writing and regulatory filing fees and compliance costs. At the end of the reporting period, the Company compares payments made to third-party service providers to the estimated progress toward completion of the research or development project. Such estimates are subject to change as additional information becomes available. Depending on the timing of payments to the service providers and the progress that the Company estimates has been made as a result of the service provided, the Company may record net prepaid or accrued expenses relating to these costs.

Upfront and milestone payments made to third parties who perform research and development services on the Company’s behalf are expensed as services are rendered. Costs incurred in obtaining product technology licenses are charged to research and development expense as acquired in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) if the technology licensed has not reached technological feasibility and has no alternative future use.

(j) Stock-Based Awards

Share-based compensation included in the consolidated financial statements following the Separation is based upon the Baudax Bio, Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”). The plan includes grants of stock options, time-based vesting restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance-based RSUs. The Company measures employee stock-based awards at grant-date fair value and recognizes employee compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

Determining the appropriate fair value of stock options requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the option and expected stock price volatility. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value its stock option awards. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change and/or management uses different assumptions, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different for future awards.

The expected life of stock options was estimated using the “simplified method,” as the Company has limited historical information to develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior for its stock options grants. The simplified method is based on the average of the vesting tranches and the contractual life of each grant. For stock price volatility, the Company uses an average of its peer group’s volatility in order to estimate future stock price trends. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury notes with a term approximating the expected life of the option. The Company has never declared or paid dividends and has no plans to do so in the foreseeable future, therefore the dividend yield is zero.

(k) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to the extent it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Because of the Company’s history of losses as a standalone entity, a full valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets in all periods presented.

(Unaudited)

Unrecognized income tax benefits represent income tax positions taken on income tax returns that have not been recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The Company recognizes the benefit of an income tax position only if it is more likely than not (greater than 50%) that the tax position will be sustained upon tax examination, based solely on the technical merits of the tax position. Otherwise, no benefit is recognized. The tax benefits recognized are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company does not anticipate significant changes in the amount of unrecognized income tax benefits over the next year.

(l) Net Loss Per Common Share

Net loss per common share is computed using the two-class method required due to the participating nature of the Series A Preferred Stock (as defined and discussed in Note 13(b)). Except with respect to voting and conversion, the rights of the holders of the Company’s common stock and the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock are identical. Each class of shares has the same rights to dividends. Although the Preferred Stock are participating securities, such securities do not participate in net losses and therefore do not impact the Company’s net loss per share calculation as of March 31, 2022.

Basic net loss per common share is determined by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period plus the weighted average number of shares of common shares that would be issued assuming exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive instruments. Outstanding warrants, common stock options and unvested restricted stock units are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share when their effect would be anti-dilutive.

For purposes of calculating basic and diluted loss per common share, the denominator includes the weighted average common shares outstanding, the weighted average common stock equivalents for warrants priced at par value, or $0.01, as the underlying common shares will be issued for little cash consideration and the conditions for the issuance of the underlying common shares are met when such warrants are issued, and, with regard to diluted loss per common share, the number of common stock equivalents if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents would be dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022			2021
Basic Loss Per Share
Net loss	$	(12,809	)	$	(16,912	)
Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic and diluted		4,038,434			1,788,118
Net loss per share of common stock, basic and diluted	$	(3.17	)	$	(9.46	)

The following potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computations of diluted weighted average shares outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Options and restricted stock units outstanding		145,589		124,523
Warrants		5,320,653		653,191

Amounts in the table above reflect the common stock equivalents of the noted instruments.

(m) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity,” or ASU 2020-06. ASU 2020-06 simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models available for convertible debt instruments. ASU 2020-06 also eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years and early adoption is permitted in annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2022, using the full retrospective method of adoption. The adoption eliminated the presentation of the beneficial conversion feature on the consolidated statement of operations and had no other material impact to the Company.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options,” or ASU 2021-04. ASU 2021-04 clarifies and reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options, such as warrants, that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. ASU 2021-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2022, using the prospective method of adoption. This adoption did not have a material impact to the Company or its disclosures.

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, “Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance,” or ASU 2021-10. ASU 2021-10 requires entities to provide disclosures on government assistance transactions for annual reporting periods. The disclosures include information around the nature of the transaction, the related accounting policies used to account for the transaction, the effect of the transaction on the entity’s financial statements, and any significant terms and conditions of the agreements, including commitments and contingencies. ASU 2021-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2022, using the prospective method of adoption. This adoption did not have a material impact to the Company or its disclosures.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” or ASU 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a range of reasonable information to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables and available-for-sale debt securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including those interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard, but based on a preliminary assessment, does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

(4) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” for fair value measurement recognition and disclosure purposes for its financial assets and financial liabilities that are remeasured and reported at fair value each reporting period. The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including cash equivalents, warrants, and contingent consideration. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of financial assets and financial liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. Categorization is based on a three-tier valuation hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value, as follows:

BAUDAX BIO, INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

(Unaudited)

•

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•

Level 2: Inputs that are other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, inputs that are quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

•

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company has classified assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as follows:


	Fair value measurements at reporting date using
	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
At March 31, 2022:
Assets:
Cash equivalents (See Note 5)
Money market mutual funds	$	8,110	$	—	$	—
Total cash equivalents	$	8,110	$	—	$	—
Liabilities:
Warrants (See Note 13(c))	$	—	$	—	$	1
Contingent consideration (See Note 12(b))		—		—		19,559
	$	—	$	—	$	19,560

At December 31, 2021:
Assets:
Cash equivalents (See Note 5)
Money market mutual funds	$	10,110	$	—	$	—
Total cash equivalents	$	10,110	$	—	$	—

Contingent consideration (See Note 12(b))		—		—		23,862
	$	—	$	—	$	23,869

The reconciliation of the warrant liability and contingent consideration measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3) is as follows:


	Warrants			Contingent Consideration
Balance at December 31, 2020	$	65		$	65,043
Payment of contingent consideration		—			(7,869	)

See Note 13(c) for the significant assumptions and inputs used to determine the fair value of liability classified warrants.

Based on the amended terms of the Alkermes agreement (see Note 12(b)), the remaining contingent consideration payments include the second components, which became payable upon regulatory approval, and includes remaining payments of $45,000 payable in seven equal annual payments of approximately $6,400 of which the first payment was made in February 2021, the first anniversary of such approval. The third component consists of three potential payments, based on the achievement of specified annual revenue targets, which currently do not have a fair value assigned to its achievement. The fourth component consists of a royalty payment between 10% and 12% (subject to a 30% reduction when no longer covered by patent) for a defined term on future injectable meloxicam net sales. The fair value of the remaining second consideration component is estimated by applying a risk-adjusted discount rate to the scheduled remaining payments. The fair value of the third contingent consideration component is estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation method and applying a risk-adjusted discount rate to the potential payments resulting from probability-weighted revenue projections based upon the expected revenue target attainment dates. The fair value of the fourth contingent consideration component is estimated by applying a risk-adjusted discount rate to the potential payments resulting from probability-weighted revenue projections and the defined royalty percentage. As of March 31, 2022, the fair value calculations used a discount rate of 35.00%.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability is measured using inputs and assumptions as of the date of the financial statements. The current portion of the contingent consideration represents the estimated probability-adjusted fair value that is expected to become payable within one year as of March 31, 2022. Events and circumstances impacting the fair value of the liability that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the date that the financial statements are available to be issued, are adjusted in the period during which such events and circumstances occur.

These fair values are based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which are referred to in the guidance as Level 3 inputs. The contingent consideration components are classified as liabilities and are subject to the recognition of subsequent changes in fair value through the results of operations.

The Company follows the disclosure provisions of FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments”, for disclosure purposes for financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value. As of March 31, 2022, the financial assets and liabilities recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, which approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of debt, where a quoted market price is not available, is evaluated based on, among other factors, interest rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms, remaining payments and considerations of the Company’s creditworthiness. The Company determined that the recorded book value of debt approximated fair value at March 31, 2022 due to the fact that the debt arrangements reflect market terms from recent transactions.

(5) Cash Equivalents

The following is a summary of cash equivalents:


	March 31, 2022
	Amortized		Gross Unrealized				Estimated
Description	Cost		Gain		Loss		Fair Value
Money market mutual funds	$	8,110	$	—	$	—	$	8,110

(6) Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The Company expensed costs related to inventory within the Research and development line in the Consolidated Statements of Operations until it received approval from the FDA to market a product, at which time the Company commenced capitalization of costs relating to that product. Adjustments to inventory are determined at the raw material, sub-assemblies and finished goods levels to reflect obsolescence or impaired balances.

Inventory consists of the following:


	March 31, 2022			December 31, 2021
Raw materials	$	26		$	53
Sub-assemblies		3,919			4,656
Finished goods		1,663			645
		5,608			5,354
Provision for inventory obsolescence		(396	)		(352	)
Inventory	$	5,212		$	5,002

(7) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment consists of the following:


	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021

Property, plant and equipment, net	$	4,992	$	5,015

Depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $43 and $86, respectively.

(8) Leases

The Company is a party to various operating leases in Malvern, Pennsylvania, and Dublin, Ireland for office space and office equipment. Right-of-use assets are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in other long-term assets. Operating lease liabilities are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities, based on the timing of expected cash payments.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The arrangement is a lease if it conveys the right to the Company to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lease terms vary based on the nature of operations. The current leased facility recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet is classified as an operating lease with a remaining lease term of 6 years. Most leases contain specific renewal options where notice to renew must be provided in advance of lease expiration or automatic renewals where no advance notice is required. Periods covered by an option to extend the lease were included in the non-cancellable lease term when exercise of the option was determined to be reasonably certain. Costs determined to be variable and not based on an index or rate were not included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company’s effective interest rate was used to discount its lease liabilities.

The Company’s leases with an initial term of twelve months or less that do not have a purchase option or extension that is reasonably certain to be exercised are not included in the right of use asset or lease liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(a) Credit Agreement

On May 29, 2020 (the “Credit Agreement Closing Date”), the Company entered into a $50,000 Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, Wilmington Trust, National Association, in its capacity as the agent (“Agent”), and MAM Eagle Lender, LLC, as the lender (together with any other lenders under the Credit Agreement from time to time, collectively, the “Lenders”). The Credit Agreement provides for a term loan in the original principal amount of $10,000 (the “Tranche One Loans”) funded on the Credit Agreement Closing Date. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, there are four additional tranches of term loans, in an aggregate original principal amount of $40,000 (the “Tranche Two Loans”, “Tranche Three Loans”, “Tranche Four Loans” and the “Tranche Five Loans”, and collectively with the Tranche One Loans, the “Term Loans” and each a “Term Loan”). As of March 31, 2022, no funds have been drawn from the additional tranches.

BAUDAX BIO, INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

(Unaudited)

The Tranche Two Loans in an amount not to exceed $5,000 may be drawn upon on or before August 29, 2021 provided that the Company generates at least $5,000 in net revenue in the three consecutive calendar months immediately preceding the date such Tranche Two Loans are funded. The Tranche Two Loans may also be drawn on a subsequent date with the satisfaction of the conditions for the Tranche Three Loans, Tranche Four Loans, or Tranche Five Loans, as applicable, provided that the Tranche Two Loans may not be drawn more than once. The Tranche Three Loans in an amount not to exceed $5,000 may be drawn upon on or before November 29, 2021 provided that the Company generates at least $10,000 in net revenue in the three consecutive calendar months immediately preceding such date such Tranche Three Loans are funded. The Tranche Three Loans may also be drawn on a subsequent date with the satisfaction of the conditions for the Tranche Four Loans or Tranche Five Loans, as applicable, provided that the Tranche Three Loans may not be drawn more than once. The Tranche Four Loans in an amount not to exceed $10,000 may be drawn upon, subject to the consent of the Lenders, on or before August 29, 2022 provided that the Company generates at least $20,000 in net revenue in the three consecutive calendar months immediately preceding the date such Tranche Four Loans are funded. The Tranche Four Loans may also be drawn on a subsequent date with the satisfaction of the conditions for the Tranche Five Loans provided that the Tranche Four Loans may not be drawn more than once. The Tranche Five Loans in an amount not to exceed $20,000 may be drawn upon, subject to the consent of the Lenders, on or before March 1, 2023 provided that the Company generates at least $100,000 in net revenue in the twelve consecutive calendar months immediately preceding the date such Tranche Five Loans are funded.

The Term Loans will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to 13.5%, with monthly, interest-only payments until the date that is three years prior to the Maturity Date (as defined below) (the “Amortization Date”). The maturity date of the Credit Agreement is May 29, 2025, but may be extended to May 29, 2026 provided that the EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the consecutive twelve-month period ending on or immediately prior to May 29, 2022 is greater than $10,000 (such date, “Maturity Date”). Beginning on the Amortization Date, the Company will be obligated to pay amortization payments (in addition to the interest stated above) on such date and each month thereafter in equal month installments of principal based on an amortization schedule of thirty-six months. Any unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans is due and payable on the Maturity Date.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans, with the proceeds of asset sales, extraordinary receipts, debt issuances and specified other events. The Company may make voluntary prepayments in whole or in part, subject to a prepayment premium equal to (i) with respect to any prepayment paid on or prior to the third anniversary of the Tranche One Loan (or, in the case of each of the Tranche Two Loans, Tranche Three Loans, Tranche Four Loans or Tranche Five Loans, the third anniversary of the date each such loan is funded), the remaining scheduled payments of interest that would have accrued on the Term Loans being prepaid, repaid or accelerated, but that remained unpaid, in no event to be less than 5.0% of the principal amount of the Term Loan being prepaid, and (ii) with respect to any prepayment paid after the third but prior to the fourth anniversary of the Tranche One Loan (or, in the case of each of the Tranche Two Loans, Tranche Three Loans, Tranche Four Loans or Tranche Five Loans, the fourth anniversary of the date each such loan is funded), 3.0% of the principal amount of the Term Loan being prepaid. In addition, an exit fee will be due and payable upon prepayment or repayment of the Term Loans (including, without limitation, on the Maturity Date) equal to the lesser of 2.5% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans advanced or approved to be advanced by the Lenders and $700; provided that such exit fee will be equal to $700 if fee is paid in conjunction with a change of control that occurs in connection with the payoff or within 6 months thereof. As of March 31, 2022, the Company will have to pay a 2.5% exit fee, which is $250 at the current outstanding loan balance and is being accreted to the carrying amount of the debt using the effective interest method over the term of the loan.

The Credit Agreement contains certain usual and customary affirmative and negative covenants, as well as financial covenants including a minimum liquidity requirement of $5,000 at all times and minimum EBITDA levels that the Company may need to satisfy on a quarterly basis beginning in September 2021, subject to borrowing levels. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the required covenants for minimum liquidity as the minimum EBITDA criteria is not applicable until additional tranches are drawn. As of March 31, 2022, borrowings under the Credit Agreement are classified based on their schedule maturities. As a result of the liquidity conditions discussed in Note 2, the Company is not expected to be able to maintain its minimum liquidity covenant over the next twelve months without additional capital financing. If the Company is unable to maintain its minimum liquidity covenant, it is reasonably possible that the Lenders could demand repayment of the borrowings under the Credit Agreement during the next twelve months.

In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company issued a warrant to MAM Eagle Lender, LLC to purchase 15,060 shares of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price equal to $160.65 per share. See Note 13(c) for additional information. The warrant is exercisable through May 29, 2027.

(b) Contingent Consideration for the Alkermes Transaction

On April 10, 2015, Societal CDMO completed the acquisition of a manufacturing facility in Gainesville, Georgia and the licensing and commercialization rights to injectable meloxicam (the “Alkermes Transaction”). Pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement and subsequent amendment with Alkermes, as amended, governing the Alkermes Transaction, the Company agreed to pay to Alkermes up to an additional $140,000 in milestone payments including $60,000 upon regulatory approval payable over a seven-year period, as well as net sales milestones related to injectable meloxicam and royalties on future product sales of injectable meloxicam.

Based on the amended terms of the Alkermes agreement, the contingent consideration consists of four separate components. The first component was (i) a $5,000 payment made in the first quarter of 2019 and (ii) a $5,000 payment made in the second quarter of 2019. The second components became payable upon regulatory approval in February 2020 and include (i) a $5,000 payment which was paid in three installments during 2020 and 2021, and (ii) $45,000 payable in seven equal annual payments of approximately $6,400 beginning on the first anniversary of such approval, of which the first payment was made in the first quarter of 2021. The Company paid $500 of the second payment, which was due in the first quarter of 2022, and will make monthly payments of $250 for two months and payments of $200 thereafter until fully paid, as agreed between the Company and Alkermes. The third component consists of three potential payments, based on the achievement of specified annual revenue targets, which currently do not have a fair value assigned to its achievement. The fourth component consists of a royalty payment between 10% and 12% (subject to a 30% reduction when no longer covered by patent) for a defined term on future injectable meloxicam net sales, which is paid quarterly.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company has paid $21,929 in milestone payments to Alkermes.

The Company is involved, from time to time, in various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues for any legal costs as they are incurred. Except as disclosed below, the Company is not currently a party to any such claims or proceedings that, if decided adversely to it, would either individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations. In connection with the Separation, the Company accepted assignment by Societal CDMO of all of Societal CDMO’s obligations in connection with a securities class action lawsuit (the “Securities Litigation”) and agreed to indemnify Societal CDMO for all liabilities related to the Securities Litigation.

On May 31, 2018, the Securities Litigation was filed against Societal CDMO and certain of Societal CDMO’s officers and directors in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (Case No. 2:18-cv-02279-MMB) that purported to state a claim for alleged violations of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10(b)(5) promulgated thereunder, based on statements made by Societal CDMO concerning the NDA for ANJESO. The complaint seeks unspecified damages, interest, attorneys’ fees, and other costs. On December 10, 2018, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint that asserted the same claims and sought the same relief but included new allegations and named additional officers as defendants. On February 8, 2019, Societal CDMO filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint in its entirety, which the lead plaintiff opposed on April 9, 2019. On May 9, 2019, Societal CDMO filed its response and briefing was completed on the motion to dismiss. In response to questions from the Judge, the parties submitted supplemental briefs with regard to the motion to dismiss the amended complaint during the fall of 2019. On February 18, 2020, the motion to dismiss was granted without prejudice. On April 25, 2020, the plaintiff filed a second amended complaint. Societal CDMO filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint on June 18, 2020. The plaintiff filed an opposition to the motion to dismiss on August 17, 2020. On September 16, 2020, Societal CDMO filed a reply in support of the motion to dismiss. On March 1, 2021, Societal CDMO’s second motion to dismiss was denied. On June 21, 2021, the defendants filed an answer and affirmative defenses to the second amended complaint. Since then, the parties have been engaged in discovery, which must conclude by March 15, 2022. On September 30, 2021, the plaintiff filed a motion for class certification and appointment of class representative. Societal CDMO filed an opposition to the plaintiff’s motion on November 30, 2021. On January 6, 2022, the plaintiff filed a reply in support of the motion for class certification. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had recorded a receivable of $914 which represents the insurance recoverable expenses as the Company has met its insurance deductible related to this matter.

On March 24, 2022, the plaintiff informed the Court that the parties had reached an agreement-in-principle to settle the Securities Litigation and requested that the court stay all deadlines. The parties are currently negotiating the terms of a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement.

The Company issued 33,908 shares of its common stock to the participating Holders as a result of the Exchange.

As a result of the Exchange, pursuant to certain price adjustment provisions in the warrants, the exercise price of each of the March Series A Warrants or March Series B Warrants (including warrants held by holders not participating in the Exchange) that were not exchanged were adjusted to par value, or $0.35, for each share of common stock underlying such warrant.

The March Series A and Series B warrants were liability classified prior to the Exchange because they contained anti-dilution provisions that did not meet the standard definition of anti-dilution provisions. The Company recorded a mark-to-market adjustment to record the March Series A and Series B warrant at their fair values immediately prior to the Exchange and then reclassified the remaining balance of $21,858 to equity as a result of the issuance of shares and the removal of the anti-dilution and variable pricing protections in the Exchange.

Overview

We are a pharmaceutical company primarily focused on innovative products for hospital and related acute care settings. We believe that we can bring valuable therapeutic options for patients, prescribers and payers to the hospital and related acute care markets.

In mid-2020, we launched our first commercial product, ANJESO, in the United States. ANJESO is the first and only 24-hour, intravenous, or IV, analgesia agent. ANJESO is a cyclooxygenase-2, or COX-2, preferential, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, or NSAID, for the management of moderate to severe pain, which can be administered alone or in combination with other non-NSAID analgesics. We have successfully completed three Phase III clinical trials, including two pivotal efficacy trials, a large double-blind Phase III safety trial and two Phase IIIb programs evaluating ANJESO clinical safety and efficacy along with its health economic impacts in specific surgical settings. We continue to evaluate strategic partnerships to commercialize ANJESO outside of the United States.

We utilize our internal field team and collaborate with contracted third parties, to market ANJESO to health care professionals at key targeted institutions for the commercialization of ANJESO in the United States. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, established a unique J-code for ANJESO in the fourth quarter of 2020. ANJESO has transitional pass-through status under traditional Medicare plans for a period of 3 years. We have also entered into agreements with leading group purchasing organizations in the U.S., including Vizient Inc., Premier Inc. and HealthTrust, as well as one of the top three integrated delivery networks that serves over twelve million patients nationwide, for availability of ANJESO to their member institutions. In September 2021, we signed an agreement for terms of availability with a leading operator of surgical facilities and ancillary services nationally, with over 150 locations nationwide, which became effective October 1, 2021. In addition, ANJESO is currently approved for use within the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, Indian Health Service, 340B covered entities, and multiple state Medicaid programs.

We have seen continued growth of ANJESO through deepening usage at existing accounts, as well as through the addition of new accounts in the quarter, which contributed to the first quarter of 2022 being our best quarter since launch. The number of vials sold to end-users increased approximately 20% in the first quarter of 2022 versus the fourth quarter of 2021 and increased approximately 141% over the first quarter of prior year.

Our costs consist primarily of expenses incurred in conducting our manufacturing, commercialization of ANJESO, public company and personnel costs, clinical trials and preclinical studies, and regulatory activities. We expect to incur operating losses for at least the next few years. We expect substantially all of our operating losses to result from costs incurred in connection with our commercialization activities, including manufacturing costs, and development programs, including our clinical, non-clinical and formulation development activities. Our expenses over the next several years are expected to primarily relate to the commercialization of ANJESO and continuing to develop our other current and future product candidates. In addition, we may incur costs associated with the acquisition or in-license of products and successful commercialization of the acquired or in-licensed products.

Our pipeline also includes other early-stage product candidates, including two novel NMBs and a related proprietary chemical reversal agent and Dex-IN, a proprietary intranasal formulation of dexmedetomidine, or Dex, an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist that we are evaluating for possible partnering.

COVID-19 Impact

Our efforts to commercialize ANJESO were impacted in 2020, 2021, and continue to impact us in 2022 on a variable basis depending on the timing, location and extent of the outbreaks. There may continue to be impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in light of the surge of new COVID-19 cases relating to new variants, such as the Delta and Omicron variants, and any new and potentially more virulent variants that may emerge. Intermittent impacts in the reduction of elective surgeries have occurred and this has had an impact in the recent quarter, especially in January and February. Overall, many centers have yet returned to pre-COVID levels of surgeries even where the impact of COVID-19 and its variants have not been as great. In addition, COVID-19 has impacted revenue for many hospitals, caused a reduction in hospital staffing, lead to a diversion in resources from other normal activities to patients suffering from COVID-19, and caused a limitation in hospital access for nonpatients, including our sales professionals, which we believe has impacted and will continue to impact our marketing and commercialization efforts. Further, hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers may experience staffing shortages as a result of employee non-compliance with government or employer mandated vaccination requirements, which could reduce the number of elective surgeries that can be performed at hospitals with staffing shortages. We believe a reduction in elective surgeries during the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted and may continue to impact demand for ANJESO.

We anticipate that many hospitals and health care providers will continue to suffer negative financial consequences due to an increase in unexpected costs, including for personal protective equipment, and ventilators, and this impact may result in ongoing decreased revenue. If fewer elective procedures are being performed, we believe this may negatively impact ANJESO growth rates. In addition, in some areas the absence of hospital formulary meetings where new drugs can be adopted has had ongoing variable impact on our efforts to commercialize ANJESO. Many hospital formularies have resumed meetings after a 6-month, or longer, absence. Despite the existence of a backlog of products scheduled to be reviewed, we believe we will make progress with having ANJESO added to additional hospital formularies over the near term. Due to the rapidly evolving environment, continued uncertainties from the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic, and the recent regional outbreaks that are impacting the recovery, we cannot estimate the full extent to which our commercialization of ANJESO and financial results may be adversely impacted.

2022 Reduction in Force

Due to our current cash position, in March of 2022, we implemented a reduction in workforce by approximately 66 employees (representing approximately 80% of our total workforce), including 43 members of our sales force. We estimate that the reorganization will be substantially completed by the end of the second quarter and that we will incur approximately $4.0 million of charges for severance and other related costs, primarily during the first half of 2022 The reduction in force is designed to reduce our operational expenses substantially and conserve cash resources.

Financial Overview

Revenue

Subsequent to regulatory approval for ANJESO from the FDA, we began selling ANJESO in the U.S. through a single third-party logistics provider, or 3PL, which takes title to and control of the goods. We recognize revenue from ANJESO product sales at the point the title to the product is transferred to the customer and the customer obtains control of the product. The transaction price that is recognized as revenue for products includes an estimate of variable consideration for reserves, which result from discounts, returns, chargebacks, rebates, and other allowances that are offered within contracts between us and our end-user customers, wholesalers, group purchasing organizations and other indirect customers.

Our estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of its anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available. These reserves reflect our best estimate of the amount of consideration to which we are entitled based on the terms of the contracts. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price may be constrained and is included in the net sales price only to the extent that is considered probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from our estimates. If actual results in the future vary from our estimates, we will adjust these estimates, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes product costs, manufacturing costs, transportation and freight, royalty expense, qualification costs for a secondary manufacturing suite for increased available capacity to meet anticipated demand and indirect overhead costs associated with the manufacturing and distribution of ANJESO including supply chain and quality personnel costs. Cost of sales may also include period costs related to certain manufacturing services and inventory adjustment charges. We expensed a significant portion of the cost of producing ANJESO that we are using in the commercialization as research and development expense prior to the regulatory approval of ANJESO. We expect that over time, product costs in cost of sales will increase as sales increase and inventory associated with the units manufactured prior to FDA approval are sold.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses currently consist primarily of costs incurred in connection with the pediatric development of ANJESO and the NMB portfolio activities. These expenses consist primarily of:

•

expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites, consultants and other service providers that conduct or support our clinical and pre-clinical trials;

•

the cost of acquiring and manufacturing clinical trial drug supply and related manufacturing services and pre-commercial product validation and inventory manufacturing expenses;

•

costs related to facilities, depreciation and other allocated expenses;

•

acquired in-process research and development;

•

costs associated with regulatory activities and responses to the FDA; and

•

salaries and related costs for personnel in research and development and pre-commercial regulatory functions.

The majority of our external research and development costs have related to clinical trials, manufacturing of drug supply for pre-commercial products, analysis and testing of product candidates and patent costs. We expense costs related to clinical inventory and pre-commercial inventory until we receive approval from the FDA to market a product, at which time we commence capitalization of costs relating to that product to inventory. Costs related to facilities, depreciation and support are not charged to specific programs. Subsequent to regulatory approval of ANJESO, we allocated or recategorized certain personnel and overhead expenses related to medical affairs, supply chain, quality and regulatory support functions that had previously been recorded within research and development, to cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses in support of the commercialization of ANJESO. Pre-commercial activities directly utilizing personnel and overhead expenses from the medical affairs, supply chain, quality and regulatory support function continue to be recorded within research and development.

The development of our other product candidates is highly uncertain and subject to a number of risks, including, but not limited to:

•

the costs, timing and outcome of regulatory review of a product candidate;

•

the duration of clinical trials, which varies substantially according to the type, complexity and novelty of the product candidate;

•

substantial requirements on the introduction of pharmaceutical products imposed by the FDA and comparable agencies in foreign countries, which require lengthy and detailed laboratory and clinical testing procedures, sampling activities and other costly and time-consuming procedures;

•

the possibility that data obtained from pre-clinical and clinical activities at any step in the testing process may be adverse and lead to discontinuation or redirection of development activity or may be susceptible to varying interpretations, which could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval;

•

risk involved with development of manufacturing processes, FDA pre-approval inspection practices and successful completion of manufacturing batches for clinical development and other regulatory purposes;

•

the emergence of competing technologies and products, including obtaining and maintaining patent protections, and other adverse market developments, which could impede our commercial efforts; and

•

the other risks disclosed in the sections titled “Risk Factors” of our 2021 Annual Report and this Quarterly Report.

Development timelines, probability of success and development costs vary widely. As a result of the uncertainties discussed above, we will assess our product candidate’s commercial potential and our available capital resources. As a result of these uncertainties surrounding the timing and outcome of any approval, we are currently unable to estimate precisely when, if ever, any of our product candidates will generate revenues and cash flows.

We expect our research and development costs to relate to ANJESO, including required pediatric post-marketing studies, as well as development and commercialization scale-up of our other product candidates. We may elect to seek collaborative relationships in order to provide us with a diversified revenue stream and to help facilitate the development and commercialization of our product candidate pipeline.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of sales and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of compensation and benefits for our sales force and personnel that support our sales and marketing efforts as well as third party consulting costs for the promotion and sale of ANJESO. In addition, sales and marketing expenses include expenses related to communicating the clinical and economic benefits of ANJESO and educational programs for our indirect customers.

General and administrative expenses consist principally of salaries and related costs for personnel in executive, finance and information technology functions, as well as the commercial portion of the medical affairs and regulatory functions. General and administrative expenses also include public company costs, directors and officer’s insurance, professional fees for legal, including patent-related expenses, consulting, auditing, and tax services.

We expect our selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in the future as a result of our commercialization of ANJESO.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration

In connection with the Separation, we entered into an Assignment and a Partial Assignment, Assumption and Bifurcation Agreement, or the Alkermes Agreements, relating to the Purchase and Sale Agreement for the acquisition of certain assets, including the worldwide rights to injectable meloxicam and Societal CDMO’s development, formulation and manufacturing business from Alkermes, or the Alkermes Transaction, as amended in December 2018 and August 2020. Pursuant to the Alkermes Agreements, we are required to pay up to $140.0 million in milestone payments, including $10.0 million that was paid during 2019, $3.6 million paid in 2020, another $1.4 million paid in 2021, and $45.0 million over seven years beginning one year after approval, of which the first payment was made in the first quarter of 2021 and a partial payment was made on the second payment, which was due in the first quarter of 2022, with monthly payments of $0.2 million paid thereafter until fully paid, as well as net sales milestones and a royalty percentage of future product net sales related to injectable meloxicam between 10% and 12% (subject to a 30% reduction when no longer covered by patent), which is paid quarterly. The estimated fair value of the initial $54.6 million payment obligation was recorded as part of the purchase price for the Alkermes Transaction. We have continued to reevaluate the fair value each subsequent period and as of March 31, 2022 recorded a $19.6 million payment obligation, representing the estimated probability adjusted fair value of the liability. Each reporting period, we revalue this estimated obligation with changes in fair value recognized as a non-cash operating expense or gain. As of March 31, 2022, we have paid $21.9 million in milestone payments to Alkermes.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the periods presented primarily includes interest expense incurred on our Credit Agreement with MAM Eagle Lender, the amortization of related financing costs, and interest expense on a promissory note with PNC Bank under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the “CARES Act”) administered by the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”), which was fully forgiven during the year ended December 31, 2021.

Income Taxation

We maintained a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Net loss	$	(12,809	)	$	(16,912	)

Revenue, net. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, net product revenue was $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to sales of ANJESO in the U.S. While utilizing the title model of distribution, product revenue is recognized as shipments are made to our 3PL provider. The increase of $0.2 million was attributable to securing additional formulary approvals and generating trial and adoption of ANJESO, as well as increased end-user demand leading to increased purchasing by direct customers.

Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales was $0.6 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and consists of product costs, royalty expense and certain fixed costs associated with the manufacturing of ANJESO, including supply chain and quality costs. We expensed costs associated with the manufacturing of our products as research and development prior to regulatory approval. Certain product costs of ANJESO units recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were expensed prior to FDA approval of ANJESO in February 2020, and therefore are not included in cost of sales during the related periods. We expect that over time, product costs in cost of sales will increase as sales increase and inventory associated with the units manufactured prior to FDA approval are sold. The decrease of $0.2 million was primarily a result of the reduction of inventory scrap expense recorded in the current year compared to the prior year of $0.2 million.

Research and Development. Our research and development expenses were $1.3 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase of $0.2 million was primarily due to an increase in clinical trials costs associated with our ANJESO pediatric program of $0.2 million.

Selling, General and Administrative. Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $14.2 million and $12.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase of $2.1 million was primarily a result of accrued severance costs associated with the reduction in force of the commercial team in the first quarter of 2022 of $1.7 million, as well as other marketing and travel costs of $0.4 million.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization expense was $0.6 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, which was related to the amortization of our intangible asset resulting from research and development activities over its estimated useful life beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020.

Change in Contingent Consideration Valuation. The change in contingent consideration valuation was a decrease in value of $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and an increase in value of $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The non-cash charge for contingent consideration in each period related to the revaluation of the probability-adjusted fair value of the Alkermes Transaction payment obligation. The decrease in contingent consideration value for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to updated forecasts for ANJESO due to the significant reduction of our commercial team. The increase in contingent consideration valuation for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily due to the time value of money and change in interest rates, partially offset by adjusted timing of estimated milestone and royalty payments due to updated forecasts reflecting an estimate of the launch trajectory of ANJESO.

Other Expense, net. Other expense was $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which was related to the interest expense incurred on our Credit Agreement with MAM Eagle Lender and the amortization of related financing costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2022, we had $11.5 million in cash and cash equivalents.

On March 1, 2022, we closed an underwritten public offering of 1,831,631 shares of common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase 1,677,141 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share and warrants to purchase 3,508,772 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.25 per share, as well as up to 526,315 additional shares of common stock and/or additional warrants to purchase up to 526,315 shares of common stock which may be purchased pursuant to a 30-day option to purchase additional securities granted to H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Underwriter”) by us. The public offering price for each share of common stock and accompanying warrant to purchase one share of common stock was $2.85, and the public offering price for each pre-funded warrant and accompanying warrant was $2.84. As compensation to the Underwriter, we agreed to pay to the Underwriter a cash fee of 7.0% of the gross proceeds, plus a cash management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds and reimbursement of certain expenses and legal fees. We also issued to designees of the Underwriter warrants to purchase 210,526 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.5625 per share. On February 28, 2022, the Underwriter partially exercised its option to purchase an additional 113,896 warrants. Net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, was $8.8 million.

On December 28, 2021, we closed a registered direct offering of 42,289.3 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, or the Preferred Stock, and warrants to purchase 362,479 shares of common stock, or the December 2021 Warrants, for net proceeds of $3.7 million. The shares of Preferred Stock will have a stated value of $100.00 per share and are convertible, on the date after the issuance thereof, into an aggregate of 483,306 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $8.75 per share. As compensation to H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, or the Placement Agent, we agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee of 7.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the December 2021 Offering, plus a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the December 2021 Offering and reimbursement of certain expenses and legal fees. We also issued to designees of the Placement Agent warrants to purchase 28,996 shares of common stock, or the December 2021 Placement Agent Warrants. The December 2021 Warrants and the December 2021 Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price of $11.20 per share and will be exercisable upon the six-month anniversary of their issuance.

On May 31, 2021, we closed a registered direct offering of 400,815 shares of common stock, or the May Offering, at an offering price of $29.75 per share and warrants to purchase 400,812 shares of common stock, or the May Warrants, at an exercise price of $0.90 per share, for net proceeds of $10.9 million. As compensation to the Placement Agent, we agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee of 6.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the May Offering, plus a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the May Offering and reimbursement of certain expenses and legal fees. We also issued to designees of the Placement Agent warrants to purchase 24,076 shares of common stock (the “May Placement Agent Warrants”) at an exercise price of $37.1875 per share. The May Warrants and May Placement Agent Warrants were exercisable on the six-month anniversary of the closing date of the May Offering.

On February 8, 2021, we entered into an agreement to issue and sell 314,286 shares of common stock, or the February Offering, at an offering price of $56.00 per share, for net proceeds of $16.2 million. As compensation to the Placement Agent, we agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee of 6.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the February Offering, plus a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the February Offering and reimbursement of certain expenses and legal fees. We also issued to designees of the Placement Agent warrants to purchase up to 18,854 shares of common stock, or the February Placement Agent Warrants. The February Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price of $70.00 per share.

On January 21, 2021, we entered into an agreement to issue and sell warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 294,298 shares of common stock, or the January Warrants, at an offering price of $4.375 per warrant in exchange for the exercise of the institutional investor’s existing December Series A warrants that were issued to them on December 21, 2020, at an exercise price of $41.30 per warrant. The January Warrants have an exercise price of $56.00 per share. The January Warrants are immediately exercisable and will expire five years from the issuance date. As compensation to the Placement Agent, we agreed to pay a cash fee of 6.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the January Offering (including the proceeds relating to the exercise of the December Series A Warrants), plus a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds raised in the January Offering (including the proceeds relating to the exercise of the December Series A Warrants) and reimbursement of certain expenses and legal fees. We also issued to designees of the Placement Agent warrants to purchase up to 17654 shares of common stock, or the January Placement Agent Warrants. The January Placement Agent Warrants have substantially the same terms as the January Warrants, except that the January Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price equal to $70.00 per share.

On May 29, 2020, we entered in a $50.0 million Credit Agreement with MAM Eagle Lender, pursuant to which we have drawn $10.0 million as of the date of this Quarterly Report and may draw upon four additional tranches of term loans. The Tranche Two Loans in an amount not to exceed $5.0 million may be drawn upon on or before August 29, 2021 provided that we generate at least $5.0 million in net revenue in the three consecutive calendar months immediately preceding the date such Tranche Two Loans are funded. The Tranche Two Loans may also be drawn on a subsequent date with the satisfaction of the conditions for the Tranche Three Loans, Tranche Four Loans, or Tranche Five Loans, as applicable, provided that the Tranche Two Loans may not be drawn more than once. The Tranche Three Loans in an amount not to exceed $5.0 million may be drawn upon on or before November 29, 2021 provided that we generate at least $10.0 million in net revenue in the three consecutive calendar months immediately preceding such date such Tranche Three Loans are funded. The Tranche Three Loans may also be drawn on a subsequent date with the satisfaction of the conditions for the Tranche Four Loans or Tranche Five Loans, as applicable, provided that the Tranche Three Loans may not be drawn more than once. The Tranche Four Loans in an amount not to exceed $10.0 million may be drawn upon, subject to the consent of the Lenders, on or before August 29, 2022 provided that we generate at least $20.0 million in net revenue in the three consecutive calendar months immediately preceding the date such Tranche Four Loans are funded. The Tranche Four Loans may also be drawn on a subsequent date with the satisfaction of the conditions for the Tranche Five Loans provided that the Tranche Four Loans may not be drawn more than once. The Tranche Five Loans in an amount not to exceed $20.0 million may be drawn upon, subject to the consent of the Lenders, on or before March 1, 2023 provided that we generate at least $100.0 million in net revenue in the twelve consecutive calendar months immediately preceding the date such Tranche Five Loans are funded.

On May 8, 2020, we entered into a promissory note for $1.5 million under the PPP of the CARES Act administered by the SBA. We have used the loan proceeds for covered payroll costs in accordance with the relevant terms and conditions of the CARES Act. This Loan may be partially or fully forgiven if we comply with the provisions of the CARES Act including the use of Loan proceeds for payroll costs, rent, utilities, and other expenses, and at least 60% of the loan proceeds must be for payroll costs as defined by the CARES Act. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we received a Notice of PPP Forgiveness Payment from the SBA regarding the approval of our application for forgiveness of the PPP Loan of $1.5 million and accrued interest. As a result, we recognized a gain on extinguishment of the PPP Loan of $1.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2021.

We anticipate that our principal uses of cash in the future will be primarily to fund our operations, pipeline development activities, ongoing modest ANJESO commercialization, working capital needs, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.

We expect to seek additional funding to sustain our future operations and while we have successfully raised capital in the past, the ability to raise capital in future periods is not assured. Based on our available cash as of March 31, 2022, we will need to raise additional capital in the next twelve months to continue as a going concern.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Cash used in operations was $12.9 million and $14.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which represents our operating losses less our non-cash items including: stock-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, depreciation, amortization, changes in warrant valuations, and changes in fair value of contingent consideration, as well as changes in operating assets and liabilities.

There was no significant cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $7.6 million, which was primarily due to purchases of short-term investments in the current year, partially offset by the maturities of these short-term investments.

There was $8.6 million of cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2022 consisting of net proceeds of $9.1 million from public offerings of common stock and warrants, partially offset by a payment of contingent consideration of $0.5 million. There was $21.9 million of cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 consisting of net proceeds of $16.2 million from registered direct offerings of common stock and warrants and net proceeds of $12.2 million from warrant exercises, partially offset by a payment of contingent consideration of $6.4 million.

Our future use of operating cash and capital requirements will depend on many forward-looking factors, including the following:

•

our relationships with third parties, licensors, collaborators, and our employees;

•

our ability to continue to operate as a standalone company and execute our strategic priorities;

•

potential indemnification liabilities we may owe to Societal CDMO;

•

the timing of the Alkermes Transaction milestone payments and other contingent consideration;

•

the costs of continued manufacturing scale-up and commercialization activities, for ANJESO;

•

the level of market acceptance of ANJESO;

•

the scope, progress, results, and costs of development for our other product candidates;

•

the cost, timing and outcome of regulatory review of our other product candidates;

•

the cost of manufacturing scale-up, acquiring drug product and other capital equipment for our other product candidates;

•

the extent to which we in-license, acquire or invest in products, businesses and technologies;

•

our ability to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or the sale of certain assets;

•

our ability to achieve certain milestones to access and draw down additional tranches of debt under the Credit Agreement;

•

the extent to which holders of our warrants exercise their warrants resulting in the payment of cash proceeds to us;

•

the costs of preparing, submitting and prosecuting patent applications and maintaining, enforcing and defending intellectual property claims; and

•

the effect of any changes in our effective tax rate due to changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, tax impacts and net operating loss utilization related to the Separation and changes in tax laws.

We might use existing cash and cash equivalents on hand, debt, equity financing, sale of assets or out-licensing revenue or a combination thereof to fund our operations or product acquisitions. If we increase our debt levels, we might be restricted in our ability to raise additional capital and might be subject to financial and restrictive covenants. Our shareholders may experience dilution as a result of the issuance of additional equity or debt securities. This dilution may be significant depending upon the amount of equity or debt securities that we issue and the prices at which we issue any securities.

Debt obligations consist of principal, an exit fee of 2.5% of that principal and interest on the $10.0 million outstanding term loan under our Credit Agreement. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the future interest obligations are not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report.

(2)

These obligations consist of cancelable and non-cancelable purchase commitments related to inventory and other goods or services. The timing of certain purchase commitments cannot be estimated as it is dependent on sales launch trajectory or the outcome of other strategic evaluations.

(3)

We have become party to certain operating leases for the leased space in Malvern, Pennsylvania, and Dublin, Ireland, as well as for office equipment, for which the minimum lease payments are presented. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report.

(4)

We are party to exclusive licenses with Orion for the development and commercialization of certain pipeline product candidates, under which we may be required to make certain milestone and royalty payments to Orion. See Note 12(a) to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Quarterly Report. The amount reflects only payment obligations that are fixed and determinable that may arise based on meeting certain milestones. We are unable to reliably estimate the timing of these payments because they are dependent on the type and complexity of the clinical studies and intended uses of the products, which have not been established. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, these obligations are not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(5)

We license the neuromuscular blocking agents, or NMBs, from Cornell University pursuant to a license agreement under which we are obligated to make annual license maintenance fee payments, milestone payments and patent cost payments and to pay royalties on net sales of the NMBs. The amount reflects only payment obligations that are fixed and determinable. We are unable to reliably estimate the timing of certain of these payments because they are dependent on the type and complexity of the clinical studies and intended uses of the products, which have not been established. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, certain of these obligations are not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. See 12(a) to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report.

(6)

Pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement governing the Alkermes Transaction, we agreed to pay to Alkermes milestone and royalty payments. The amount reflects only payment obligations that are fixed and determinable and in some instances may only arise based on meeting certain commercial milestones. We are unable to reliably estimate the timing of these payments because they are in some instances, events that not in our control and dependent on the commercial success of the product. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the fair value of these obligations is recorded as contingent consideration on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 12(b) to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report.

(7)

We have entered into employment agreements with certain of our named executive officers. As of March 31, 2022, these employment agreements provided for, among other things, annual base salaries in an aggregate amount of not less than this amount, from that date through September 2023.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2022. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. However, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are involved, from time to time, in various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. Except as disclosed below, we are not currently a party to any such claims or proceedings that, if decided adversely to it, would either individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.

On May 31, 2018, a securities class action lawsuit, or the Securities Litigation, was filed against Societal CDMO and certain of Societal CDMO’s officers and directors in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (Case No. 2:18-cv-02279-MMB) that purported to state a claim for alleged violations of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10(b)(5) promulgated thereunder, based on statements made by Societal CDMO concerning the NDA for injectable meloxicam. The complaint seeks unspecified damages, interest, attorneys’ fees and other costs. On December 10, 2018, lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint that asserted the same claims and sought the same relief but included new allegations and named additional officers as defendants. On February 8, 2019, Societal CDMO filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint in its entirety, which the lead plaintiff opposed on April 9, 2019. On May 9, 2019, the Company filed its response and briefing was completed on the motion to dismiss. In response to questions from the Judge, the parties submitted supplemental briefs with regard to the motion to dismiss the amended complaint during the fall of 2019. On February 18, 2020, the motion to dismiss was granted without prejudice. On April 25, 2020, the plaintiff filed a second amended complaint. Societal CDMO filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint on June 18, 2020. The plaintiff filed an opposition to Societal CDMO’s motion to dismiss on August 17, 2020. On September 16, 2020, Societal CDMO filed a reply in support of the motion to dismiss. On March 1, 2021, Societal CDMO’s second motion to dismiss was denied. On June 21, 2021, the defendants filed an answer and affirmative defenses to the second amended complaint. Since then, the parties have been engaged in discovery, which must conclude by March 15, 2022. On September 30, 2021, the plaintiff filed a motion for class certification and appointment of class representative. Societal CDMO filed an opposition to the plaintiff’s motion on November 30, 2021. On January 6, 2022, the plaintiff filed a reply in support of the motion for class certification. In connection with the Separation, we accepted assignment by Societal CDMO of all of Societal CDMO’s obligations in connection with the Securities Litigation and agreed to indemnify Societal CDMO for all liabilities related to the Securities Litigation. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had recorded a receivable of $0.9 million which represents the insurance recoverable expenses as the Company has met its insurance deductible related to this matter.

On March 24, 2022, plaintiff informed the Court that the parties had reached an agreement-in-principle to settle the Securities Litigation and requested that the court stay all deadlines. The parties are currently negotiating the terms of a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement.
