Business

InVivo Therapeutics Corporation (“InVivo”) was incorporated on November 28, 2005 under the laws of the State of Delaware. On October 26, 2010, InVivo completed a reverse merger transaction (the “Merger”) with InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp. (formerly Design Source, Inc.) (“ITHC”), a publicly traded company incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. InVivo became a wholly owned subsidiary of ITHC, which continues to operate the business of InVivo. InVivo is a life sciences company focused on the development and commercialization of both novel drug delivery technologies as well as biopolymer devices for the treatment of spinal cord injuries and other nervous system conditions. The biopolymer devices are designed to protect and repair damaged tissue and to deliver drugs and other agents, including proteins. The post-merger combination of ITHC and InVivo is referred to throughout these notes to consolidated financial statements as the “Company.”

Since its inception, InVivo has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring operating assets and raising capital. Accordingly, the Company is considered to be in the development stage.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) consistent with those applied in, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s audited financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 12, 2013 and amended on September 12, 2013. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2013 and its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented and are not necessarily indicative of results for subsequent interim periods or for the full year. The interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements as allowed by the relevant SEC rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that its disclosures are adequate to ensure that the information presented is not misleading.

As of September 30, 2013, the Company held $18,333,540 in cash and cash equivalents. From time to time, the Company may have cash balances in financial institutions in excess of insurance limits. The Company has never experienced any losses related to these balances. The Company’s cash equivalents are in money market funds. Cash and cash equivalents consist of the following:

Restricted cash of approximately $601,000 represents $290,000 of security deposits related to the Company’s credit card account and a $311,000 cash account securing a standby letter of credit in favor of a landlord (see Note 5).

The Company groups its assets and liabilities generally measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.

Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities generally include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

Table of Contents

Level 2 – Valuation is based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The Company uses valuation methods and assumptions that consider among other factors the fair value of the underlying stock, risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected life and dividend rates in estimating fair value for the warrants considered to be derivative instruments.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2013.

Operating Lease Commitment

On November 29, 2011 and as amended on September 17, 2012, the Company entered into a commercial lease for 26,150 square feet of office, laboratory and manufacturing space in Cambridge, Massachusetts (“Cambridge Lease”). The term of this lease is six years and three months, with one five-year extension option. The terms of the lease requires a standby letter of credit, as amended, in the amount of $311,000 (see Note 3).

The Cambridge Lease contains rent holidays and rent escalation clauses. The Company recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term and records the difference between the amount charged to expense and the rent paid as a deferred rent liability. As of September 30, 2013, the amount of deferred rent liability is $561,000 and is included in accrued expenses.

It is the Company’s policy to assess whether improvements made to the space rented under operating leases should be accounted for as lessor or lessee assets. If the landlord/lessor makes the improvements and presents the Company with the finished space on a “turnkey” basis, the Company views the assets as being lessor assets. When the Company does the remodeling work and receives an allowance that may or may not cover all the costs, the Company makes a judgment as to the classification between lessor and lessee assets. The Company considers an asset to be a lessor asset if all of the following criteria are met:

If any of the above criteria are not met, the Company considers the assets to be lessee assets, which are recorded as leasehold improvements in the balance sheet and payments received from the lessor to fund any portion of the cost of lessee assets are accounted for as lease incentives. Assets considered to be lessor assets are not reflected in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. To the extent that the Company paid for such lessor assets and was not reimbursed through construction allowances, such net payments are recorded as leasehold improvements, which are amortized to rent expense over the lease term. As of September 30, 2013, such leasehold improvements totaled $311,852.

Pursuant to the terms of the non-cancelable lease agreements in effect at September 30, 2013, the future minimum rent commitments are as follows:

Total rent expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, including month-to-month leases, was $838,000 and $433,000, respectively. Total rent expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, including month-to-month leases, was $241,000 and $218,000 respectively.

On September 4, 2013, the Company entered into a legal settlement agreement for approximately $286,000, in connection with the settlement of outstanding litigation, which has been included in the deferred rent liability and the benefit will be amortized over the lease term.

In February 2011, the Company entered into a capital lease agreement under which the Company leased certain laboratory equipment. Capital lease obligation consisted of the following:

The total value of the laboratory equipment acquired under this capital lease agreement was $124,151 including a down payment of approximately $31,000. The capital lease is payable in monthly installments of $2,812 payable over thirty six months with the final payment due in January 2014. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, interest expense recorded on the capital lease was $228 and $1,019 respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 depreciation expense was $6,208 and $18,624 respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, interest expense recorded on the capital lease was $480 and $3,024, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, depreciation expense was $6,208 and $18,624, respectively. The net book value at September 30, 2013 was $57,937.

In May 2013, the Company entered into a contract for the purchase of an Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system for approximately $150,000. The total cost for the ERP system including interest is approximately $159,000 with an implicit interest rate of approximately 6%.

Pursuant to the terms of this non-cancelable purchase agreement (“Note payable”) in effect at September 30, 2013, the future minimum principal payments are as follows:

In the third quarter of 2013, the Company decided to abandon the implementation of the ERP system. As such, the purchase was fully expensed in 2013. The Company will reserve the right to implement the ERP system at a future date.

8. LOANS PAYABLE

In October 2012, the Company entered into a loan agreement with the Massachusetts Development Finance Agency (“MassDev”) from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’s Emerging Technology fund. The loan agreement provides the Company with a $2,000,000 line of credit, with $200,000 to be used for working capital purposes and the remainder of which is to be used for the purchase of capital equipment. The annual interest rate is fixed at 6.5% with interest payments only that commenced on November 1, 2012 for the first thirty months and then equal interest and principal payments over the next fifty-four months with the final maturity on October 5, 2019. Based on the $1,920,000 balance outstanding as of September 30, 2013,

equal monthly principal payments of $35,556 will be due commencing on May 1, 2015. Therefore, for the years ending December 31, 2015, 2016, 2017 and thereafter, principal payments of approximately $320,000, $427,000, $427,000 and $746,000, respectively, will be due. In September 2012, the Company was assessed commitment fees totaling $15,000, which was charged to interest expense. In October 2012 as part of the commitment fee, the Company issued MassDev a warrant for the purchase of 36,145 shares of Common Stock. The warrant has a seven year term and is exercisable at $1.66 per share. The fair value of the warrant was determined to be $31,916 and was recorded as a deferred financing cost and is being amortized to interest expense over a seven year period commencing in October 2012. Amortization of the deferred financing cost for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $1,140 and $3,420, respectively and are included in interest expense. The equipment line of credit is secured by substantially all the assets of the Company excluding intellectual property. Interest expense related to this loan for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $31,482 and $87,923 respectively

In June 2011, the Company entered into a loan agreement with a bank. The loan agreement had provided the Company with a $1,000,000 line of credit for the purchase of capital equipment. The annual interest rate was the greater of 6.75% or 3.50% above the Prime Rate. Borrowings were repayable in equal monthly installments over a thirty six month period. The Company was assessed commitment fees totaling $10,000 and issued the bank a warrant for the purchase of 16,071 shares of Common Stock. The warrant has a seven year term and is exercisable at $1.40 per share. The fair value of the warrant was determined to be approximately $10,000 and was recorded as a deferred financing cost that was being amortized to interest expense over the life of the loan. Under the terms of the MassDev loan disclosed above, in October 2012 the Company repaid the outstanding balance of $134,372 due to the bank and wrote off the remaining deferred financing costs. Amortization of the deferred financing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $5,875 and is included in interest expense. Interest expense related to the loan payable for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $3,694 and $8,895, respectively.

Loans payable consist of the following:

The Company has authorized 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.00001 par value per share, of which 78,729,618, shares were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2013 and 65,881,122 shares were issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2012.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 574,120 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of stock options and received cash proceeds of approximately $456,000.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 12,224,846 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of warrants, including warrants to purchase 627,036 shares of Common Stock exercised through cashless exercise provisions resulting in the issuance of 411,512 shares and 11,813,334 warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock exercised for cash, providing net cash proceeds of approximately $15,952,000.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 49,530 shares of Common Stock with a fair value of $124,287 to the Company’s 401(k) plan as a matching contribution.

Certain warrants issued to investors and the placement agent warrants in the fourth quarter of 2010 had provisions that included anti-dilution protection and, under certain conditions, granted the right to the holder to require the Company to repurchase the warrant. Accordingly through March 31, 2013, these warrants were accounted for as derivative liabilities. In May 2013, the Company called for the redemption of all the outstanding investor warrants and during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, all such warrants, for a total of 11,726,343 warrants, were exercised and the fair value of $26,006,170 was reclassified from Derivative warrant liability to Additional paid-in capital. There were no derivative instruments subsequent to June 30, 2013.

On May 17, 2013, the Company completed its offer to exchange certain of its outstanding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Eligible Warrants”) for new warrants (the “New Warrants”) with the same terms except (i) the expiration date of the New Warrants was extended two years and (ii) weighted average anti-dilution provisions were removed from the New Warrants (the “Offer”). The Eligible Warrants consisted of (i) warrants to purchase common stock dated October 26, 2010, issued in connection with the closing of a merger (the “Merger Warrants”) and (ii) warrants to purchase common stock issued to the placement agent as compensation for services in connection with each closing of a private

placement which occurred on October 26, 2010, November 10, 2010 and December 3, 2010 (the “Placement Agent Warrants”). In connection with the Offer, Merger Warrants to purchase 255,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and Placement Agent Warrants to purchase 3,064,091 shares of the Company’s common stock were tendered and accepted for exchange for New Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,319,091 shares of the Company’s common stock. Due to the modification of the terms, the Eligible Warrants were revalued prior to modification and immediately after modification as of May 17, 2013. This resulted in an incremental fair value immediately after the modification and the Derivative warrant liability was increased by $764,769 and a corresponding non-cash charge was recorded in Other expense as Loss from modification of warrants. Since the New Warrants are not accounted for as derivative liabilities, the fair value of these warrants after modification of $7,738,320 was reclassified from Derivative warrant liability to Additional paid-in capital.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model and assumptions that consider among other factors the fair value of the underlying stock, risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected life and dividend rates in estimating fair value for the warrants considered to be derivative instruments. The fair value of these derivative instruments at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $0 and $14,584,818, respectively, and was included as a derivative warrant liability, a current liability. Changes in fair value of the derivative financial instruments were recognized currently in the Statement of Operations as a derivatives gain or loss. The warrant derivative gains (losses) are non-cash income (expenses) and for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 a gain of $0 and $10,869,209, respectively, were included in other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 a (loss) gain of $(18,871,329) and $21,436,653, respectively, were included in other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The primary underlying risk exposure pertaining to the warrants is the change in fair value of the underlying Common Stock for each reporting period. The table below presents the changes in derivative warrant liability for the nine months ended September 30:

In 2007, the Company adopted the 2007 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Plan (the “2007 Plan”). Pursuant to the 2007 Plan, the Company’s Board of Directors (or committees and/or executive officers delegated by the Board of Directors) may grant incentive and nonqualified stock options to the Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors. As of September 30, 2013, there were options to purchase an aggregate of 2,814,583 shares of Common Stock outstanding under the 2007 Plan and no shares available for future grants under the 2007 Plan.

On October 26, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted and the Company’s shareholders subsequently approved the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, (the “2010 Plan”). The Company’s shareholders approved amendments to the 2010 Plan on August 3, 2011, May 30, 2012 and May 23, 2013 to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2010 Plan. The 2010 Plan provides for grants of incentive stock options to employees and nonqualified stock options and restricted Common Stock to employees, consultants and non-employee directors of the Company. As of September 30, 2013, the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2010 Plan, as amended, was 11,000,000 shares. As September 30, 2013, there were options to purchase an aggregate of 4,589,271 shares of Common Stock outstanding under the 2010 Plan and 6,342,918 shares available for future grants under the 2010 Plan. Options issued under the 2007 Plan and the 2010 Plan (collectively the “Plans”) are exercisable for up to 10 years from the date of issuance.

Share-based compensation

For stock options issued and outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded non-cash, stock-based compensation expense of $2,201,039 and $823,617, respectively, net of forfeitures.

Table of Contents

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The Company uses historical data, as well as subsequent events occurring prior to the issuance of the financial statements, to estimate option exercises and employee terminations within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted under the Plans, all of which qualify as “plain vanilla,” is based on the average of the contractual term (10 years) and the vesting period (generally 48 months). For non-employee options, the expected term is the contractual term. The risk-free rate is based on the yield of a U.S. Treasury security with a term consistent with the option. The assumptions used principally in determining the fair value of options granted were as follows:

A summary of option activity as of September 30, 2013 and changes for the period then ended are presented below:

The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $2.71 per share. The total fair value of options that vested in nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $1,574,820. As of September 30, 2013, there was $4,917,736 of total unrecognized compensation expense, related to non-vested share-based option compensation arrangements. The unrecognized compensation expense is estimated to be recognized over a period of 3 years at September 30, 2013.

The following presents information about warrants to purchase Common Stock issued and outstanding at September 30, 2013:

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company received insurance proceeds of approximately $1,100,000 from the settlement of a business interruption claim that covered the disruption of the Company’s operations at its facility in Cambridge, MA caused by water damage that occurred in November 2012. The insurance settlement reimbursed the Company for costs incurred as a result of the disruption is included as reduction of Research and Development Expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Table of Contents

The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this report and with the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Annual Report”). The management’s discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions under Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1034, as amended. These statements include statements made regarding our commercialization strategy, future operations, capital requirements and other statements on our strategy, financial position, plans, and market trends. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “target,” “estimate,” “expect” and the like. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report, including factors such as the Company’s ability to execute its strategy, regulatory approval of the Company’s products, market acceptance of the Company’s products, the Company’s ability to retain management and other key personnel and other factors detailed under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of the Company’s 2012 Annual Report. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this quarterly report.

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based on the Company’s financial statements, which the Company has prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates such estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that the Company believes 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 readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Overview

The Company is a life sciences company focused on the development and commercialization of both novel drug delivery technologies as well as biopolymer devices for the treatment of spinal cord injuries and other nervous system conditions. The biopolymer devices are designed to protect and repair damaged tissue and to deliver drugs and other agents, including proteins.

Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring operating assets and raising capital. Accordingly, the Company is considered to be in the development stage.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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.

On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments for all assets and liabilities, including those related to stock-based compensation expense and the fair value determined for stock purchase warrants classified as derivative liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current economic and industry conditions and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. This forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from our 2012 Annual Report.

We believe that full consideration has been given to all relevant circumstances that we may be subject to, and the consolidated financial statements accurately reflect our best estimate of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented.

Exchange Offer and Redemption of Warrants

In April 2013, the Company announced its offer to exchange certain of its outstanding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Eligible Warrants”) for new warrants (the “New Warrants”) with the same terms except (i) the expiration date of the New Warrants was extended two years and (ii) weighted average anti-dilution provisions were removed from the New Warrants (the “Offer”). The Eligible Warrants consisted of (i) warrants to purchase common stock dated October 26, 2010, issued in connection with the closing of a merger (the “Merger Warrants”) and (ii) warrants to purchase common stock issued to the placement agent as compensation for services in connection with each closing of a private placement which occurred on October 26, 2010, November 10, 2010 and December 3, 2010 (the “Placement Agent Warrants”). On May 17, 2013, the Company completed the Offer and exchanged Merger Warrants to purchase 255,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and Placement Agent Warrants to purchase 3,064,091 shares of the Company’s common stock were tendered and accepted for exchange for New Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,319,091 shares of the Company’s common stock.

In addition, in May 2013, the Company called for the redemption of all the outstanding investor warrants pursuant to the terms of those warrants. As a result, during the three months ended June 30, 2013, a total of 11,726,343 warrants were exercised.

Recent Developments

In August 2013, Frank Reynolds, our former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, resigned from the Company, and Michael J. Astrue was appointed Interim Chief Executive Officer. Sean Moran, who was appointed Acting Chief Financial Officer following the resignation of Mr. Reynolds, subsequently resigned from the Company in September 2013. Shortly thereafter, Gregory D. Perry was appointed Interim Chief Financial Officer.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of payments to contract research and development companies and payroll. Research and development expenses increased by approximately $1,646,000 to approximately $3,021,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from approximately $1,375,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in expenses is attributed to research and development activity resulting mainly from $545,000 of compensation costs due to additional staffing and salary changes, $432,000 of stock compensation costs, and $356,000 of preclinical testing costs.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll, rent and professional services. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $920,000 to approximately $2,386,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from approximately $1,466,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in expenses is attributed to $717,000 of legal costs and $86,000 of stock compensation cost.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased by $22,000 to approximately $34,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $12,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in interest expense is mainly due to an increase in borrowing under the loan payable.

Research and development expenses increased by approximately $3,202,000 to approximately $6,826,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from approximately $3,623,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in expenses is primarily attributable to increased research and development activity and the resulting increases as follows: $1,194,000 of compensation cost due to additional staffing, recruiting, and salary changes; an increase in stock compensation expense of $1,050,000; an increase in preclinical costs of $761,000, and an increase in rent and facility costs of $586,000.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $2,071,000 to approximately $6,505,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from approximately $4,434,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in expenses is primarily attributable to an increase in compensation costs of $276,000 due to additional staffing, recruiting costs and pay raises, an increase of rent and facility costs of $326,000, an increase in stock compensation costs of $291,000 and an increase in legal costs of $962,000.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased by $67,000 to approximately $95,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $28,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in interest expense is mainly due to an increase in borrowing under the loan payable.

Derivatives Gain (Loss)

Derivatives loss increased by approximately $40,308,000 to a loss of approximately $18,871,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from a gain of approximately $21,437,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in this non-cash loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflects the increase in the fair value of derivative warrant liability prior to reclassification to additional paid-in capital due primarily to the increase in the fair value of the underlying Common Stock.

Loss from Modification of Warrants

Loss from modification of warrants was $765,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The charge is attributable to an increase in the fair value of warrants that was attributable to the modification of the terms of warrants on May 17, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring operating assets and raising capital. Accordingly, the Company is considered to be in the development stage.

Since inception, the Company has experienced negative cash flows from operations. The Company has financed its operations primarily through the sale of equity-related securities. At September 30, 2013, the deficit accumulated during the development stage was approximately $76,202,000.

At September 30, 2013, we had total current assets of approximately $19,053,000 and current liabilities of approximately $2,095,000 resulting in a working capital of approximately $16,958,000. At September 30, 2013, the Company had total assets of approximately $21,646,000 and total liabilities of approximately $4,052,000, resulting in a stockholders’ equity of approximately $17,595,000.

Net cash used by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $10,716,000. The operating loss used approximately $13,330,000, changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses used approximately $204,000, non-cash share-based compensation provided approximately $2,201,000 and depreciation and amortization provided approximately $545,000. Significant commitments that will require the use of cash in operating activities in future periods include obligations under operating leases. Gross committed lease obligations amount to approximately $6,355,000. Total commitments due for the remainder of fiscal 2013 under operating leases are approximately $297,000.

Net cash used by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 totaled approximately $651,000 for purchases of capital equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $16,875,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, due to $16,408,000 from the exercise of stock options and warrants and $467,000 from loans, capital leases, and notes payable, net of repayments.

At September 30, 2013, the Company had cash of approximately $18,334,000. Based on the current level of spending, the Company expects to sufficiently meet operating and capital requirements into the first quarter of 2015. However, the Company will need to raise substantial capital in the future to complete clinical trials, obtain marketing approvals and commercialize its products. Such funding could occur with debt or equity financing. The sale of debt or equity securities may cause dilution to existing stockholders. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise funds if and when they are required. Failure to obtain future funding when needed or on acceptable terms would materially and adversely affect the results of our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, including unrecorded derivative instruments that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Not applicable.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our interim Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our interim Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that the information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our interim Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

From time to time, we could be subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of business or be a defendant in lawsuits. While the outcome of such claims or other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, our management expects that any such liabilities, to the extent not provided for by insurance or otherwise, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

We are currently operating with an interim Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, and until our Company is able to locate and appoint qualified successors to fill these positions, our operations may be disrupted.

We currently do not have a permanent Chief Executive Officer or permanent Chief Financial Officer, which creates uncertainty and could adversely affect our ability to establish strategic relationships and adversely impact relationships with our employees. Failure to successfully manage our transition to permanent management positions could potentially impede our ability to execute effectively on our business strategy and could also potentially harm our business prospects.
