NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
1. | CORPORATE INFORMATION AND CONTINUING OPERATIONS |
InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“InMed” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the Province of British Columbia on May 19, 1981 under the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia. InMed is a clinical stage pharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of prescription-based products, including rare cannabinoids and novel cannabinoid analogs, targeting the treatment of diseases with high unmet medical needs as well as developing proprietary manufacturing technologies to produce rare cannabinoids for sale in the health and wellness industry.
The Company’s shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the trading symbol “INM”. InMed’s corporate office and principal place of business is located at #310 – 815 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, B.C., Canada, V6C 1B4.
In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are issued.
Through December 31, 2021, the Company has funded its operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of common stock. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception, including net losses of $7.3 million and $3.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $82.1 million as of December 31, 2021 (June 30, 2021 - $74.9 million). The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future.
As of the issuance date of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the Company expects its cash and cash equivalents of $11.3 million as of December 31, 2021 will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The future viability of the Company beyond that point is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to finance its operations. As a result, the Company has concluded that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are issued.
The Company expects to continue to seek additional funding through equity financings, debt financings or other capital sources, including collaborations with other companies, government contracts or other strategic transactions. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Company’s existing stockholders.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its commitments, realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not reflect adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if the Company was unable to continue as a going concern and such adjustments could be material.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
2. | SIGNIFICANT AND NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
(a) | Basis of Presentation |
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes thereto for the year ended June 30, 2021.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for a full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements follow the same significant accounting policies as those described in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended June 30, 2021, except for the new accounting guidance adopted during the period.
The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. Dollar. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars. References to “$” and “US$” are to United States (“U.S.”) dollars and references to “C$” are to Canadian dollars.
(b) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date, and the corresponding revenues and expenses for the periods reported. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions, the estimate of useful life of intangible assets, the application of the going concern assumption, the impairment assessment for long-lived assets, and determining the fair value of share-based payments and warrants.

2. | SIGNIFICANT AND NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d) |
(c) | COVID-19 Impacts |
On March 11, 2020 the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may directly or indirectly impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition, including expenses, research and development costs and employee-related amounts, will depend on future developments that are evolving and highly uncertain, such as the duration and severity of outbreaks, including potential future waves or cycles, and the effectiveness of actions taken to contain and treat COVID-19. The Company considered the potential impact of COVID-19 when making certain estimates and judgments relating to the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. While there was no material impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company’s future assessment of the magnitude and duration of COVID-19, as well as other factors, could result in a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.
(d) | Business Combinations |
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The fair value of total purchase consideration is allocated to the fair values of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the remaining amount being classified as goodwill. All assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired or assumed in a business combination are recorded at their fair values at the date of acquisition. If the Company’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets exceeds the cost of the acquisition, the excess is recognized in earnings or loss immediately. Transaction costs that are incurred in connection with a business combination, other than costs associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, are expensed as incurred.
(e) | Accounts Receivable |
Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts, net of any allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable.
The Company evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable on a regular basis based upon various factors including the financial condition and payment history of customers, an overall review of collections experience on other accounts and economic factors or events expected to affect future collections experience. Expected credit losses on our accounts receivable were immaterial as at December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021.
(f) | Inventories |
Inventories are initially valued at weighted average cost and subsequently valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Costs included in inventories are raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods.
In determining any valuation allowances, the Company reviews inventory for obsolete, redundant, and slow-moving goods. At December 31, 2021, no amounts had been charged to the valuation allowance.

2. | SIGNIFICANT AND NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d) |
(g) | Revenue Recognition |
The Company recognizes revenue when the Company satisfies the performance obligations under the terms of a contract and control of its products and services is transferred to its customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive from its customers in exchange for those products and services. ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers defines a five-step process to recognize revenue that requires judgment and estimates, including identifying the contract with the customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognizing revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue consists of manufacturing and distribution sales of bulk rare cannabinoids, which are generally recognized at a point in time when control over the products have been transferred to the customer. Control of the products are considered transferred to the customer once they have been shipped to the customer and title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer and the Company has a present right to payment. Sales and other taxes that are required to be remitted to regulatory authorities are recorded as liabilities and excluded from sales. Limited rights of return, for claims of damaged or non-compliant products, exist with the Company’s customers.
The Company has elected the practical expedient that allows it to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense, when incurred, if the amortization period of the asset that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.
Revenues within the scope of ASC 606 do not include material amounts of variable consideration. Customer payments are generally due in advance of when control is transferred to the customer. The time between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant.

7. | ACQUISITION |
On October 13, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of BayMedica, a private company based in the U.S. that specializes in the manufacturing and commercialization of rare cannabinoids. The Company acquired 100% of BayMedica in exchange for i) 2,050,000 common shares issued to BayMedica’s equity and convertible debt holders, subject to a six-month contractual hold period and ii) $1 million to be held in escrow, subject to reduction for certain post-closing adjustments or satisfaction of indemnification claims under the definitive agreement in the six- and twelve-month periods following the closing.
Total consideration for the acquisition of BayMedica is summarized as follows:
Purchase Price | ||||
Consideration | ||||
($) | ||||
Estimated fair value of common shares issued | 3,013,500 | |||
Cash | 1,000,000 | |||
Less: Post-closing adjustments | (199,543 | ) | ||
Estimated fair value of consideration transferred | 3,813,957 |
The 2,050,000 common shares were valued at $1.47, being the closing price of the Company’s common shares on Nasdaq on October 12, 2021. The cash component is subject to reduction for certain post-closing adjustments or satisfaction of indemnification claims and therefore is subject to further changes.
In accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, the purchase price of BayMedica has been allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated acquisition date fair values. The fair value estimates were based on income, estimates and other analyses. The excess of the total consideration over the estimated fair value of the amounts initially assigned to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. The goodwill balance represents the assembled workforce acquired, the combined company’s expectations of the strategic opportunities available as a result of the acquisition, and other synergies that will be derived from the acquisition.

The Purchase Price allocation includes certain identifiable intangible assets with an estimated fair value of approximately $2,656,000. These intangible assets include trade secrets, product formulation knowledge, patents and trademarks. Patents and trademarks are expected to have a finite life and are being amortized using the straight-line method over the respective lives of each asset.
Acquired IPR&D are related identifiable intangible assets associated with cannabinoid manufacturing processes and includes knowhow and trade secrets. The multi-period excess earnings method was used to determine the fair value of these assets as at the date of acquisition. IPR&D is classified as an indefinite-lived intangible asset and is not amortized. All research and development costs incurred subsequent to the acquisition of IPR&D are expensed as incurred.
The acquired trademark represents the trade name ProDiol®. The fair value of the trademark, which was determined using the relief from royalty method, was capitalized as of the acquisition date and is subsequently being amortized over 10 years.
Acquired patents consist of patents related to the development of cannabinoid analogs, the fair value of which was determined using the income approach. This intangible asset is being amortized over an estimated useful life of 18 years.

7. | ACQUISITION (cont’d) |
As of December 31, 2021, the Company had not yet fully completed the analysis to assign fair values to all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and therefore the purchase price allocation is preliminary. The remaining items include the finalization of working capital, income taxes and resulting impacts to goodwill. The preliminary purchase price allocation will be subject to further refinement as the Company continues to refine its estimates and assumptions based on information available at the acquisition date. The purchase price allocation adjustments can be made throughout the end of the Company’s measurement period, which is not to exceed one year from the acquisition date.

14. | SEGMENT INFORMATION |
As of the closing of the BayMedica acquisition, the Company aligned into two operating and reportable segments, InMed Pharmaceuticals (the “InMed” segment) and BayMedica (the “BayMedica” segment). The Company reports segment information based on the management approach which designates the internal reporting used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. The CODM allocates resources and assesses the performance of each operating segment based on potential licensing opportunities, historical and potential future product sales, operating expenses, and operating income (loss) before interest and taxes. The Company has determined its reportable segments to be InMed and BayMedica based on the information used by the CODM. Other than cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments (“Unrestricted cash”) balances, the CODM does not regularly review asset information by reportable segment and therefore, the Company does not report asset information by reportable segment.
The InMed segment is largely organized around the research and development of cannabinoid-based pharmaceuticals products and the BayMedica segment is largely organized around developing proprietary manufacturing technologies to produce rare cannabinoids for sale in the health and wellness industry.

16. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
Pursuant to the terms of agreements with various contract research organizations, as at December 31, 2021, the Company is committed for contract research services and materials at a cost of approximately $2,030,205, expected to occur in the twelve months following December 31, 2021.
Pursuant to the terms of a May 31, 2017 Technology Assignment Agreement between the Company and the University of British Columbia (“UBC”), the Company is committed to pay royalties to UBC on certain licensing and royalty revenues received by the Company for biosynthesis of certain drug products that are covered by the agreement. To date, no payments have been required to be made.
Pursuant to the terms of a December 13, 2018 Collaborative Research Agreement with UBC in which the Company owns all right, title and interest in and to any intellectual property, in addition to funding research at UBC, the Company is committed to make a one-time payment upon filing of any PCT patent application arising from the research. To date, no payments have been required to be made.
Pursuant to the terms of a November 1, 2018 Contribution Agreement with National Research Council Canada, as represented by its Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP), under certain circumstances contributions received, including the disposition of the underlying intellectual property developed in part with NRC-IRAP contributions, may become repayable.
Short-term investments include guaranteed investment certificates with a face value of $45,356 (June 30, 2021 - $46,391) that are pledged as security for a corporate credit card.
The Company has entered into certain agreements in the ordinary course of operations that may include indemnification provisions, which are common in such agreements. In some cases, the maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited; however, the Company currently holds commercial general liability insurance. This insurance limits the Company’s liability and may enable the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. Historically, the Company has not made any indemnification payments under such agreements and it believes that the fair value of these indemnification obligations is minimal. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any liabilities relating to these obligations for any period presented.
Pursuant to a technology licensing agreement, the Company is committed to issue, subject to regulatory approval, up to 17,500 warrants to purchase 17,500 common shares upon the achievement of certain milestones. The exercise price of the warrants will be equal to the five-day VWAP of the common shares prior to each milestone achievement and the warrants will be exercisable for a period of three years for issuance date.
The Company entered into a patent license agreement with a third party (the “Licensor”) in an agreement dated February 15, 2021. The Company is required to make future royalty payments to Licensor based on net sales of licensed products, with minimum payments required starting in 2021. In December 2021, the Company amended the License Agreement including the deferral of the 2021 minimum payments to 2022. As at December 31, 2021, the Company has accrued $300,000 for the minimum payments under the agreement.
From time to time, the Company may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims related to matters arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe it is currently subject to any material matters where there is at least a reasonable possibility that a material loss may be incurred.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
17. | FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
The fair values of short-term investments, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs.
a) | Market Risk: |
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices are comprised of four types of risk: foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, commodity price risk and equity price risk. The Company does not currently have significant commodity price risk or equity price risk.
Foreign Currency Risk:
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the future cash flows or fair value of the Company’s financial instruments that are denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency (U.S. dollar) will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Portions of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are denominated in Canadian dollars.
Accordingly, the Company is exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates, primarily against the Canadian dollar.
As at December 31, 2021, the Company has a net excess of Canadian dollar denominated cash and cash equivalents in excess of Canadian dollar denominated accounts payable and accrued liabilities of C$2,638,499 which is equivalent to US$2,081,248 at the December 31, 2021 exchange rate. The Canadian dollar financial assets generally result from holding Canadian dollar cash to settle anticipated near-term accounts payable and accrued liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars. The Canadian dollar financial liabilities generally result from purchases of supplies and services from suppliers in Canada.
Each change of 1% in the Canadian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar results in a gain or loss, with a corresponding effect on cash flows, of $20,812 based on the December 31, 2021 net Canadian dollar assets (liabilities) position. During the six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded foreign exchange loss of $72,619 (2020 – $ ) related to Canadian dollars.
Interest Rate Risk:
Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. As at December 31, 2021, holdings of cash and cash equivalents of $8,313,978 (June 30, 2021 - $7,053,329) are subject to floating interest rates. The balance of the Company’s cash holdings of $2,965,986 (June 30, 2021 - $309,796) are non-interest bearing.
As at December 31, 2021, the Company held variable rate guaranteed investment certificates, with one-year terms, with face value of $45,356 (June 30, 2021 - $46,391).
The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in guaranteed investment certificates or interest-bearing accounts of major Canadian chartered banks or credit unions with comparable credit ratings. The Company regularly monitors compliance to its cash management policy.
b) | Credit Risk: |
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or a counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments which are potentially subject to credit risk for the Company consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and loan receivable. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are maintained with financial institutions of reputable credit and may be redeemed upon demand. In the normal course of business, the Company does not provide third party loans.
The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. Credit risk exposure is limited through maintaining cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments with high-credit quality financial institutions and management considers this risk to be minimal for all cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments assets based on changes that are reasonably possible at each reporting date.
c) | Liquidity Risk: |
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s policy is to ensure that it has sufficient cash to meet its liabilities when they become due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. A key risk in managing liquidity is the degree of uncertainty in the cash flow projections. If future cash flows are fairly uncertain, the liquidity risk increases. As at December 31, 2021, the Company has cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $11,325,388 (June 30, 2021 - $7,409,588), current liabilities of $4,617,765 (June 30, 2021 - $2,215,361) and a working capital surplus of $7,887,261 (June 30, 2021 - $6,162,908).

Overview
We are a clinical stage pharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of prescription-based products, including rare cannabinoids and novel cannabinoid analogs, targeting the treatment of diseases with high unmet medical needs (“Product Candidates”) as well as developing proprietary manufacturing technologies to produce rare cannabinoids for sale in the health and wellness industry (“Products”).
26
InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
We are developing multiple manufacturing approaches for synthesizing rare cannabinoids for potential use in pharmaceutical Product Candidates as well as serving as a business-to-business (B2B) supplier to wholesalers and end-product manufacturers / marketers in the health and wellness sector. This includes traditional approaches such as chemical synthesis and biosynthesis, as well as a proprietary, integrated manufacturing approach called IntegraSynTM. We are dedicated to delivering new therapeutic alternatives to patients and consumers who may benefit from cannabinoid-based products. Our approach leverages on the several thousand years’ history of health benefits attributed to the Cannabis plant and brings this anecdotal information into the 21st century by applying tried, tested and true scientific approaches to establish non-plant-derived (synthetically manufactured), individual cannabinoid compounds as Product Candidates in important market segments including clinically proven, FDA-approved medicines and non-prescription, over-the-counter consumer products via B2B supply relationships with wholesalers and end-product manufacturers. While our activities do not involve direct use of Cannabis nor extracts from the plant, we note that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has, to date, not approved any marketing application for Cannabis for the treatment of any disease or condition and has approved only one Cannabis-derived and three Cannabis-related drug products. Our ingredients are synthetically made and, therefore, we have no interaction with the Cannabis plant. We do not grow nor utilize Cannabis nor its extracts in any of our Products or Product Candidates; our current pharmaceutical drug Product Candidates are applied topically (not inhaled nor ingested); and, we do not utilize THC or CBD, the most common cannabinoid compounds that are typically extracted from the Cannabis plant, in any of our Products or Product Candidates. The active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) under development for our initial two drug candidates, INM-755 for Epidermolysis bullosa (“EB”) and INM-088 for glaucoma, is cannabinol (“CBN”). Additional uses of both INM-755 and INM-088 are being explored, as well as the application of additional rare cannabinoids to treat diseases including but not limited to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s.
We believe we are positioned to develop multiple pharmaceutical Product Candidates in diseases which may benefit from medicines based on rare cannabinoid compounds. Most currently approved cannabinoid therapies are based specifically on CBD and/or THC and are often delivered orally, which has limitations and drawbacks, such as side effects (including the intoxicating effects of THC). Currently, we intend to deliver our rare cannabinoid pharmaceutical drug candidates through various topical formulations (cream for dermatology, eye drops for ocular diseases) as a way of enabling treatment of the specific disease at the site of disease while seeking to minimize systemic exposure and any related unwanted systemic side effects, including any drug-drug interactions and any metabolism of the active pharmaceutical ingredient by the liver. The cannabinoids sold through our B2B raw material supply business are integrated into various product formats by the companies who then further commercializes such products. We plan to access rare cannabinoids via all non-extraction approaches, including chemical synthesis, biosynthesis and our proprietary integrated IntegraSynTM approach, thus negating any interaction with or exposure to the Cannabis plant.
Since our acquisition of Biogen Sciences Inc., a privately held British Columbia pharmaceutical company focused on drug discovery and development of cannabinoids in 2014, our operations have focused on conducting research and development for our Product Candidates and for our integrated, biosynthesis-based manufacturing technology, establishing our intellectual property, organizing and staffing our company, business planning and capital raising. On October 13, 2021, we acquired BayMedica Inc., now named BayMedica LLC (“BayMedica”). Upon closing of the transaction, BayMedica became a wholly-owned subsidiary of InMed. To date, we have funded our operations primarily through the issuance of common shares.
27
InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
We have incurred significant operating losses since our inception and since the acquisition of Biogen Science Inc. and we expect to continue to incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future. Our ability to generate product revenue, if ever, that is sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of one or more of our drug candidates and/or the success of our manufacturing technologies. Our comprehensive loss was $7.3 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, we had an accumulated deficit of $82.1 million, which includes all losses since our inception in 1981. Our accumulated deficit increased between 2014, when we began focusing on the development of cannabinoid-derived pharmaceuticals following the acquisition of Biogen Science Inc., and December 31, 2021 by approximately $53.3 million. We expect our expenses and operating losses will increase substantially over the next several years in connection with our ongoing activities as we:
● | continue to further advance the development of our manufacturing technologies; |
● | continue to further advance the INM-755 program, our lead drug candidate for the treatment of EB; | |
● | expand our BayMedica Product portfolio; |
● | continue to further advance the INM-088 program, our drug candidate for the treatment of glaucoma; |
● | investigate our Product Candidates for additional uses beyond the initial indications; |
● | pursue the discovery of drug targets for other diseases with high unmet medical needs and the subsequent development of any resulting new Product Candidates; |
● | seek regulatory approvals for any Product Candidates that successfully complete clinical trials; |
● | scale-up our manufacturing processes and capabilities, or arrange for a third party to do so on our behalf; |
● | execute on business development activities, including but not limited to company mergers/acquisitions and acquisition or in-licensing of externally developed products and/or technologies; |
● | maintain, expand, enforce, defend and protect our intellectual property; |
● | hire additional clinical, quality control, sales and scientific personnel; and |
● | add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support product development and potential future commercialization efforts and our operations as a public company. |
As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through the sale of equity, debt financings or other capital sources, including collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on favorable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and when needed, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and commercialization of one or more of our Products and Product Candidates or grant rights to external entities to develop and market our Product Candidates, even if we would otherwise prefer to develop and market such Products and Product Candidates ourselves.
Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with drug development and commercial growth, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or the timing of when or if we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations.

Recent Developments
On July 2, 2021, we closed a $12.0 million private placement. After deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, we received net proceeds of approximately $11.0 million.
On October 13, 2021, we completed the acquisition of BayMedica Inc. (“BayMedica”), a private company based in the U.S. that specializes in the manufacturing and commercialization of rare cannabinoids. We acquired 100% of BayMedica in exchange for 2.05 million common shares issued to BayMedica’s equity and convertible debt holders, subject to a six-month contractual hold period and $1 million to be held in escrow, subject to reduction for certain post-closing adjustments or satisfaction of indemnification claims under the definitive agreement in the six- and twelve-month periods following the closing.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
Our revenue consists of manufacturing and distribution sales of bulk rare cannabinoids, which are generally recognized at a point in time when control over the products have been transferred to the customer.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales consist primarily of the purchase price of goods and cost of services rendered, freight costs, warehousing costs, and purchasing costs. Cost of sales also includes production and labor costs for our manufacturing business.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development and Patent Expenses
Research and development and patent expenses represent costs incurred by us for the discovery, development, and manufacture of our Products and Product Candidates and include:
● | external research and development expenses incurred under agreements with contract research organizations, or “CROs”, contract development and manufacturing organization, or “CDMOs”, and consultants; |
● | salaries, payroll taxes, employee benefits expenses for individuals involved in research and development efforts; |
● | research supplies; and | |
● | legal and patent office fees related to patent and intellectual property matters. |
We expense research and development costs as incurred. We recognize expenses for certain development activities, such as preclinical studies and manufacturing, based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using data or other information provided to us by our vendors. Payments for these activities are based on the terms of the individual agreements, which may differ from the pattern of expenses incurred. Non-refundable advance payments for goods or services to be received in the future for use in research and development activities are recorded as prepaid expenses. These amounts are recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed, or until it is no longer expected that the goods will be delivered, or the services rendered.
29
InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
External costs represent a significant portion of our research and development expenses, which we track on a program-by-program basis following the nomination of a development candidate. Our internal research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expense. We do not track our internal research and development expenses on a program-by-program basis as the resources are deployed across multiple projects.
The successful development of our Products and Product Candidates is highly uncertain. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate or know the nature, timing, and estimated costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the remainder of the development of our Product Candidates or to develop and commercialize additional Products. We are also unable to predict when, if ever, material net cash inflows will commence from our Product Candidates, if approved. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with development, including the uncertainty related to:
● | the timing and progress of preclinical and clinical development activities; |
● | the number and scope of preclinical and clinical programs we decide to pursue; | |
● | our ability to raise additional funds necessary to develop and commercialize additional Products, to complete preclinical and clinical development and commercialization of our Product Candidates and to further advance the development of our manufacturing technologies; |
● | our ability to maintain our current research and development programs and to establish new ones; |
● | our ability to establish sales, licensing or collaboration arrangements; | |
● | the progress of the development efforts of parties with whom we may enter into collaboration arrangements; |
● | the successful initiation and completion of clinical trials with safety, tolerability and efficacy profiles that are satisfactory to the FDA or any comparable foreign regulatory authority; |
● | the receipt and related terms of regulatory approvals from applicable regulatory authorities; |
● | the availability of materials for use in production of our Products and Product Candidates; |
● | our ability to secure manufacturing supply through relationships with third parties or establish and operate a manufacturing facility; |
● | our ability to consistently manufacture our Product Candidates in quantities sufficient for use in clinical trials; |
● | our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection and regulatory exclusivity, both in the United States and internationally; |
● | our ability to maintain, enforce, defend and protect our rights in our intellectual property portfolio; |
● | the commercialization of new Products and of our Product Candidates, if and when approved; |
● | our ability to obtain and maintain third-party payor coverage and adequate reimbursement for our Product Candidates, if approved; |
● | the acceptance of our Product Candidates, if approved, by patients, the medical community and third-party payors; |
● | competition with other products; and |
● | a continued acceptable safety profile of our Product Candidates following receipt of any regulatory approvals. |
30
InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
A change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of any of our Product or Product Candidates would significantly change the costs and timing associated with the development of those Product or Product Candidates.
Research and development activities account for a significant portion of our operating expenses. We expect our research and development expenses to increase significantly in future periods as we continue to implement our business strategy, which includes advancing our manufacturing technologies and our drug candidates into and through clinical development, expanding our research and development efforts, including hiring additional personnel to support our research and development efforts, ultimately seeking regulatory approvals for our drug candidates that successfully complete clinical trials, and integrating and developing BayMedica’s operations. In addition, drug candidates in later stages of clinical development generally incur higher development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later-stage clinical trials. Accordingly, although we expect our research and development expenses to increase as our drug candidates advance into later stages of clinical development, we do not believe that it is possible at this time to accurately project total program-specific expenses through to commercialization. There are numerous factors associated with the successful commercialization of any of our Product Candidates, including future trial design and various regulatory requirements, many of which cannot be determined with accuracy at this time based on our stage of development.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist of personnel-related costs, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expense, for our personnel in executive, finance and accounting, human resources, business operations and other administrative functions, investor relations activities, legal fees related to corporate matters, fees paid for accounting and tax services, consulting fees and facility-related costs.
We expect our general and administrative expenses will increase for the foreseeable future to support our expanded infrastructure, operating as a public company and increased costs of expanding our operations including as a consequence of the BayMedica acquisition. These increases will likely include increased expenses related to accounting, audit, legal, regulatory and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance with exchange listing and SEC requirements, director and officer insurance premiums, and investor relations costs associated with operating as a public company.
Amortization and Depreciation
Intangible assets are comprised of intellectual property that we acquired in 2014 and 2015 and trade secrets, product formulation knowledge, patents and trademarks that we acquired in October 2021. The acquired intellectual property, patents and trademark are amortized on a straight-line basis based on their estimated useful lives. Equipment and leasehold improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method based on their estimated useful lives.
Share-based Payments
Share-based payments is the stock-based compensation expense related to our granting of stock options to employees and others. The fair value, at the grant date, of equity-settled share awards is charged to our loss over the period for which the benefits of employees and others providing similar services are expected to be received. The vesting components of graded vesting employee awards are measured separately and expensed over the related tranche’s vesting period. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of share options expected to vest. The fair value of awards is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which considers the exercise price, current market price of the underlying shares, expected life of the award, risk-free interest rate, expected volatility and the dividend yield.

Sales, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit
We realized sales of $0.3 million in our BayMedica segment for the three months ended December 31, 2021, the result of manufacturing and distribution sales of bulk rare cannabinoids following the acquisition of BayMedica in October 2021; there were no comparable revenues in the 2020 period. Accordingly, we realized cost of goods sold of $0.2 million in our BayMedica segment for the three months ended December 31, 2021, with no comparable expenses in 2020, resulting in a gross profit of $0.1 million for the period.
Research and Development and Patents Expenses
Research and development and patents expenses increased by $1.0 million in our InMed segment, or 111%, for the three months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020. The increase in research and development and patents expenses was primarily due to increased activities related to the INM-755 clinical trials.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
Research and development and patents expenses were $0.6 million in our BayMedica segment for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase in research and development and patents expenses was due to the inclusion of BayMedica operating results following the acquisition date. There were no comparable expenses in 2020.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses increased by $0.6 million in our InMed segment, or 63%, for the three months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2020. The increase results primarily from a combination of changes including personnel expenses, legal fees and investor relation expenses and substantially higher insurance fees resulting from our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market which occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2020.
General and administrative expenses were $0.3 million in our BayMedica segment for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase was due to the inclusion of BayMedica operating results following the acquisition date. There were no comparable expenses in 2020.

Research and Development and Patents Expenses
Research and development and patents expenses increased by $1.6 million in our InMed segment, or 88%, for the six months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2020. The increase in research and development and patents expenses was primarily due to increased activities related to the INM-755 clinical trials.
Research and development and patents expenses were $0.6 million in our BayMedica segment for the six months ended December 31, 2021. The increase in research and development and patents expenses was due to the inclusion of BayMedica operating results following the acquisition date. There were no comparable expenses in 2020.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses increased by $1.4 million in our InMed segment, or 86%, for the six months ended December 31, 2021 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2020. The increase results primarily from a combination of changes including personnel expenses, legal fees and investor relation expenses, substantially higher insurance fees resulting from our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market which occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2020. In addition, acquisition-related expenses, which were comprised of regulatory, financial advisory and legal fees, totaled $0.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and were included in general and administrative expenses in our InMed segment.
General and administrative expenses were $0.3 million in our BayMedica segment for the six months ended December 31, 2021. The increase is due to the inclusion of BayMedica operating results following the acquisition date. There were no comparable expenses in 2020.
Finance expense
Finance expense is $Nil in our InMed segment for the six months ended December 31, 2021, compared to $0.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020. Finance expense is comprised of financing transaction costs, from the November 2020 public offering, allocated to the derivative warrants liability.
Unrealized gain of derivative warrants liability
Unrealized gain of derivative warrants liability is $Nil in our InMed segment for the six months ended December 31, 2021, compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020, which is the change in fair value of derivative warrants liability during the end of the period.
Foreign exchange loss
Foreign exchange loss increased by $0.2 million in our InMed segment, or 65%, for the six months ended December 31, 2021, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2020, as a consequence of holding non-US denominated assets and liabilities combined with fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, we have only generated limited revenue from Product sales, no sales from any other sources and have incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from our operations. We have only commenced commercial sales with the acquisition of BayMedica and not yet commercialized any of our Product Candidates and we do not expect to generate revenue from sales of any Product Candidates for several years, if at all. We have funded our operations to date primarily with proceeds from the sale of common shares.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
As of December 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $11.3 million.
The following table summarizes our cash flows for each of the periods presented:
(in thousands) | Six Months Ended December 31, 2021 | Six Months Ended December 31, 2020 | ||||||
Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (6,188 | ) | $ | (3,173 | ) | ||
Net cash provided by investing activities | 56 | - | ||||||
Net cash provided by financing activities | 10,049 | 6,893 | ||||||
Effects of foreign exchange on cash and cash equivalents | - | 495 | ||||||
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents | $ | 3,917 | $ | 4,215 |
Operating Activities
During the six months ended December 31, 2021, we used cash in operating activities of $6.2 million, primarily resulting from our net loss of $7.3 million offset primarily by changes in our non-cash working capital and non-cash share-based compensation expenses.
During the six months ended December 31, 2020, we used cash in operating activities of $3.2 million, primarily resulting from our net loss of $3.8 million, partially offset primarily by non-cash share-based compensation expenses, financing expenses allocated to warrants, changes in the valuation of the derivative warrants liability and changes in non-cash working capital.
Investing Activities
During the six months ended December 31, 2021, cash provided by investing activities of less than $0.1 million resulted from cash acquired from the acquisition of BayMedica, partially offset by purchases of property and equipment.
During the six months ended December 31, 2020, there were no investing activities.
Financing Activities
During the six months ended December 31, 2021, cash provided by financing activities of $10.0 million consisted of $12.0 million of gross proceeds from a private placement of our common shares, offset by transaction costs of $1.3 million and settlement of debt of $0.4 million reflecting the value of loans to BayMedica as at the date of acquisition and $0.2 million for the repayment of debt assumed in the BayMedica acquisition.
During the six months ended December 31, 2020, cash provided by financing activities of $6.9 million consisted of $8.0 million of gross proceeds from a public offering of our common shares offset by transaction costs of $1.1 million.
Funding Requirements
We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing research and development activities, particularly as we continue the research and development of and the clinical trials for our Product Candidates. In addition, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a US-listed public company and associated with integrating and developing BayMedica’s operations. As a result, we expect to incur substantial operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the foreseeable future.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), we have evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are issued.
Through December 31, 2021, we have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of common stock. We have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception, including net losses of $7.3 million and $3.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. In addition, we have an accumulated deficit of $82.1 million as of December 31, 2021. Our accumulated deficit increased between 2014, when we began focusing on the development of cannabinoid-derived pharmaceuticals following the acquisition of Biogen Science Inc., and December 31, 2021 by approximately $53.3 million and we expect to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future.
On July 2, 2021, we closed a $12.0 million private placement. Under the terms of the private placement, an aggregate of 890,000 common shares and 3,146,327 pre-funded warrants, and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,036,327 common shares, were purchased. The warrants have an exercise price of $2.848 per share, are exercisable immediately and have a term of five years. After deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, we received net proceeds of approximately $11.0 million.
As of the issuance date of this Form 10-Q, we expect our cash and cash equivalents of $11.3 million as of December 31, 2021 will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Our future viability beyond that point is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital to finance our operations. In addition, there are a number of uncertainties in estimating our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements including the impact of potential acquisitions. As a result, we have concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are issued.
We expect to continue to seek additional funding through equity financings, debt financings or other capital sources, including collaborations with other companies, government contracts or other strategic transactions. We may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of our existing stockholders.
Our funding requirements and timing and amount of our operating expenditures will depend largely on:
● | the progress, costs and results of our Phase 2 clinical trial; |
● | the scope, progress, results and costs of discovery research, preclinical development, laboratory testing and clinical trials for our Product Candidates; |
● | the scope, progress, results and costs of development of our manufacturing technologies; |
● | the number of and development requirements for other Products and Product Candidates that we pursue; |
● | the costs, timing and outcome of regulatory review of our Product Candidates; |
● | our ability to enter into contract manufacturing arrangements for supply of materials and manufacture of our Products and Product Candidates and the terms of such arrangements; |
36
InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
● | the impact of any acquired, or in-licensed, externally developed product(s) and/or technologies including those of BayMedica; |
● | our ability to establish and maintain strategic collaborations, licensing or other arrangements, including sales arrangements, and the financial terms of such arrangements; |
● | the costs and timing of future commercialization activities, including product manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution, for any of our Products and for Product Candidates for which we may receive marketing approval; |
● | the costs and timing of preparing, filing and prosecuting patent applications, maintaining and enforcing our intellectual property and proprietary rights and defending any intellectual property- related claims; |
● | expansion costs of our operational, financial and management systems and increases to our personnel, including personnel to support our clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and our operations as a dual listed company; and |
● | the costs to obtain, maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio. |
A change in the outcome of any of these, or other variables with respect to the development of any of our Products and Product Candidates, could significantly change the costs and timing associated with their development. We will need to continue to rely on additional financing to achieve our business objectives.
In addition to the variables described above, if and when any of our Product Candidates successfully complete development, we will incur substantial additional costs associated with regulatory filings, marketing approval, post-marketing requirements, maintaining our intellectual property rights, and regulatory protection, in addition to other commercial costs. We cannot reasonably estimate these costs at this time.
Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial revenues from either our Products or Product Candidates, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity or debt financings and collaboration arrangements. We currently have no credit facility or committed sources of capital. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the future sale of equity securities, the ownership interests of our shareholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing common shareholders. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities, these securities could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. We may require additional capital beyond our currently anticipated amounts, and additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all. If we raise additional funds through collaboration arrangements or other strategic transactions in the future, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, Products or Product Candidates, or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market Products or Product Candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
During the periods presented we did not have, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
We periodically review our financial reporting and disclosure practices and accounting policies to ensure that they provide accurate and transparent information relative to the current economic and business environment. As part of this process, we have reviewed our selection, application and communication of critical accounting policies and financial disclosures. Management has discussed the development and selection of the critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee has reviewed the disclosure relating to critical accounting policies in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated interim financial statements included as part of this report, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the revenue and expenses incurred during the reported periods. We base estimates on our historical experience, known trends and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Detailed information about our critical accounting policies and estimates is set forth in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021. In addition, Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 include new accounting policies for business combinations, accounts receivable, inventories, revenue recognition, cost of sales and shipping and handling. These policies are considered by management to be essential to understanding the processes and reasoning that go into the preparation of our financial statements and the uncertainties that could have a bearing on its financial results.
Business Combination
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The fair value of total purchase consideration is allocated to the fair values of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the remaining amount being classified as goodwill. All assets and liabilities acquired or assumed in a business combination are recorded at their fair values at the date of acquisition. If the Company’s interest in the fair value of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets exceeds the cost of the acquisition, the excess is recognized in earnings or loss immediately. Transaction costs that are incurred in connection with a business combination, other than costs associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, are expensed as incurred.
As part of our acquisition of BayMedica Inc, on October 13, 2021, goodwill, trade secrets, product formulation knowledge, patents, trademarks, Technology and In-Process Research and Development Intangible (“IPR&D”) intangible assets were recognized. The fair value of the aggregate intangible assets was determined to be $2.7 million and goodwill was $2.0 million at the acquisition date. IPR&D is classified as indefinite-lived and is not amortized. The multi-period excess earnings method was used to determine the fair value of these assets as at the date of acquisition. All research and development costs incurred subsequent to the acquisition of IPR&D are expensed as incurred. Patents and trademarks are expected to have a finite life and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Amortization begins when intangible assets with finite lives are put into use.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Three and six months ended December 31, 2021
Going Concern
Through December 31, 2021, we have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of common shares. We have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception, including net losses of $7.3 million and $3.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. In addition, we have an accumulated deficit of $82.1 million as of December 31, 2021. Our accumulated deficit increased between 2014, when we began focusing on the development of cannabinoid-derived pharmaceuticals following the acquisition of Biogen Science Inc., and December 31, 2021 by approximately $53.3 million and we expect to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future.
On July 2, 2021, we closed a $12.0 million private placement and received net proceeds of approximately $11.0 million.
As of the issuance date of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements, we expect our cash and cash equivalents of $11.3 million as of December 31, 2021, will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Our future viability beyond that point is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital to finance our operations. In addition, there are a number of uncertainties in estimating our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements including the impact of potential acquisitions. As a result, we have concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are issued.
We expect to seek additional funding through equity financings, debt financings or other capital sources, including collaborations with other companies, government contracts or other strategic transactions. We may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of our existing shareholders.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and, as such, are not required to provide the information under this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. As of December 31, 2021, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, with assistance from other members of management, have reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934). Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based upon the evaluation, they have concluded that, as of December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level due to a material weakness that existed in our internal controls over financial reporting resulting from a lack of resources in our finance function, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.
It should be noted that any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions designed to obtain reasonable (and not absolute) assurance as to its effectiveness, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Remediation
We began implementing a remediation plan to address the previously reported material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, described in Part II, Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Remediation measures include adding additional resources in our finance function, changing certain closing reporting processes and utilizing external resources to assist with certain financial reporting matters. The material weakness will not be considered remediated, until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We expect that the remediation of this material weakness will be completed prior to the end of fiscal year 2022. Notwithstanding the material weakness, we believe the financial statements in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
