SCYNEXIS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Description of Business and Basis of Preparation

Organization

SCYNEXIS, Inc. (“SCYNEXIS” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation formed on November 4, 1999. SCYNEXIS is a biotechnology company, headquartered in Jersey City, New Jersey, and is pioneering innovative medicines to overcome and prevent difficult-to-treat and drug-resistant infections. The Company is developing its proprietary class of enfumafungin-derived antifungal compounds (“fungerps") as broad-spectrum, systemic antifungal agents for multiple fungal indications. Ibrexafungerp is the first representative of this novel class of antifungals with additional assets from the “fungerp” family, including SCY-247, in pre-clinical stages of development. In June 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved BREXAFEMME® (ibrexafungerp tablets) for treatment of patients with vulvovaginal candidiasis (“VVC”), also known as vaginal yeast infection. In December 2022, the Company announced that the FDA approved a second indication for BREXAFEMME for the reduction in the incidence of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis ("RVVC").

In March 2023, the Company entered into a license agreement (the "License Agreement") with GlaxoSmithKline Intellectual Property (No. 3) Limited ("GSK") in which the Company granted GSK an exclusive (even as to the Company and its affiliates), royalty-bearing, sublicensable license for the development and commercialization of ibrexafungerp, including the approved product BREXAFEMME, for all indications, in all countries other than Greater China and certain other countries already licensed to third parties (See Note 12). The parties closed the transactions contemplated by the License Agreement in May 2023 and the Company received an upfront payment of $90.0 million.

The Company was party to a Loan and Security Agreement, dated May 13, 2021, with Hercules Capital, Inc. ("Hercules Capital") and Silicon Valley Bridge Bank, N.A. (now a division of First Citizens Bank, “SVB”) (the "Loan Agreement"), pursuant to which Hercules Capital, SVB and each of the other lenders from time-to-time party to the Loan Agreement (collectively, the “Lenders”) loaned to the Company $35.0 million as of March 31, 2023. Upon receipt by the Company of the $90.0 million upfront payment from GSK in May 2023, all amounts payable under the Loan Agreement were fully paid (see Note 7).

Following a recent review by GSK of the manufacturing process and equipment at the vendor that manufactures the ibrexafungerp drug substance, the Company became aware that a non-antibacterial beta-lactam drug substance was manufactured using equipment common to the manufacturing process for ibrexafungerp. Current FDA draft guidance recommends segregating the manufacture of non-antibacterial beta-lactam compounds from other compounds since beta-lactam compounds have the potential to act as sensitizing agents that may trigger hypersensitivity or an allergic reaction in some people. In the absence of the recommended segregation, there is a risk of cross contamination. It is not known whether any ibrexafungerp has been contaminated with a beta-lactam compound and the Company has not received reports of any adverse events due to the possible beta-lactam cross contamination. Nonetheless, out of an abundance of caution and in line with GSK’s recommendation, the Company has recalled BREXAFEMME® (ibrexafungerp tablets) from the market and placed a temporary hold on clinical studies of ibrexafungerp, including the Phase 3 MARIO study, until a mitigation strategy is determined.

The patient-level and clinical product recall has been initiated and the Company is working with an experienced vendor to manage the process. The Company has begun engaging with the FDA and during a meeting in September 2023, the FDA concurred with the Company’s voluntary hold and placed a clinical hold on ibrexafungerp. The Company is working to provide additional information to the FDA and discuss potential paths for resolution of this issue. The clinical hold and recall affect the Company's two ongoing clinical studies: the Phase 3 MARIO study and a Phase 1 lactation study. The hold does not impact the recently completed FURI, CARES, VANQUISH and SCYNERGIA clinical studies, for which dosing is complete. The FDA determined that the compassionate use program for ibrexafungerp, which provides ibrexafungerp to patients with limited or no other treatment options, can continue provided the patient’s treating physician concludes a favorable benefit-risk assessment and the patient is made aware of and consents to the risk. This applies to patients currently in the program, as well as for new patients, pending confirmation of available supply. The Company's pre-clinical stage compound, SCY-247, is not affected by these developments.

The clinical hold and recall create uncertainty as to the timing of achieving, and the Company's ability to achieve, the milestones under the License Agreement. Refer to Note 5 and Note 12 for further information regarding the Company's assessment of the potential impact of this uncertainty as it relates to inventory and revenue, respectively.

Table of Contents

 

The Company had an accumulated deficit of $335.7 million at September 30, 2023. The Company's capital resources primarily comprised cash and cash equivalents and investments of $105.2 million at September 30, 2023. While the Company believes its capital resources are sufficient to fund the Company’s on-going operations for a period of at least 12 months subsequent to the issuance of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company's liquidity could be materially affected over this period by: (1) its ability to raise additional capital through equity offerings, debt financings, or other non-dilutive third-party funding; (2) costs associated with new or existing strategic alliances, or licensing and collaboration arrangements; (3) negative regulatory events or unanticipated costs related to its development of ibrexafungerp; (4) its ability to successfully achieve the development, regulatory, and commercial milestones under its License Agreement with GSK, particularly in light of the discovery that a non-antibacterial beta-lactam drug substance was manufactured using equipment common to the manufacturing process for ibrexafungerp and resulting product recall; and (5) any other unanticipated material negative events or costs. One or more of these events or costs could materially affect the Company’s liquidity. If the Company is unable to meet its obligations when they become due, the Company may have to delay expenditures, reduce the scope of its research and development programs, or make significant changes to its operating plan. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and judgments include: revenue recognition including gross to net estimates and the identification of performance obligations in licensing arrangements; estimates for the relative standalone selling price and measure of progress under the input method for the License Agreement; the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation grants; the estimate of services and effort expended by third-party research and development service providers used to recognize research and development expense; and the estimates and assumptions utilized in measuring the fair values of the warrant and derivative liabilities each reporting period.

Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”), as contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the interim financial information includes all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or the results for any future periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 2023.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes 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 December 31, 2022, except as described below.

Product Recall

The Company establishes reserves for product recalls on a product-specific basis when circumstances giving rise to the recall become known. The Company estimates product returns from consumers and customers across distribution channels, utilizing third-party data and other assumptions, and these are recorded within gross-to-net expenses on the Company’s unaudited condensed, consolidated statement of operations. Additionally, the Company estimates costs for any additional fees, including but not limited to freight and destruction charges for returned products and costs incurred by third party vendors. These expenses are recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses within the Company’s unaudited condensed, consolidated statement of operations as they are in excess of the initial revenue recognized. These estimates are updated and reevaluated each period and the related reserves are adjusted when these factors indicate that the recall reserves are either insufficient to cover or exceed the estimated product recall expenses. Significant changes in the assumptions used to develop estimates for product recall reserves could affect key financial information, including accounts receivable, inventory, accrued liabilities, net sales, gross profit, operating expenses and net income (loss). During the three and nine-months ended September

30, 2023, the Company recorded products recall reserves of $3.8 million, specifically for the voluntary recall of certain lots of BREXAFEMME. The Company reviews the product recall reserve for adequacy and adjusts the product recall accrual, if necessary, based on actual experience and estimated costs to be incurred.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company reviews its held-to-maturity investments for credit losses on a collective basis by major security type and in line with the Company's investment policy. As of September 30, 2023, the Company's held-to-maturity investments were in securities that are issued by the U.S. government and in corporate and agency bonds, are highly rated, and have a history of zero credit losses. The Company reviews the credit quality of its accounts receivables by monitoring the aging of its accounts receivable, the history of write offs for uncollectible accounts, and the credit quality of its significant customers, the current economic environment/macroeconomic trends, supportable forecasts, and other relevant factors. The Company's accounts receivable are with customers that do not have a history of uncollectibility nor a history of significantly aged accounts receivables. As of September 30, 2023, the Company did not recognize a credit loss allowance for its investments or accounts receivable.

Basic and Diluted Net (Loss) Income per Share of Common Stock

The Company calculates net (loss) income per common share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic net (loss) income per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was determined by dividing net (loss) income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Per ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding utilized for determining the basic net (loss) income per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 includes the outstanding pre-funded warrants to purchase 7,516,267 and 3,200,000 shares of common stock issued in the April 2022 Public Offering and December 2020 public offering, respectively. The outstanding pre-funded warrants to purchase 11,666,667 and 3,200,000 shares of common stock issued in the April 2022 Public Offering and December 2020 public offering were included in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. Diluted net (loss) income per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was determined as follows (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Reclassification of Prior Year Amounts

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). The amendments in ASU 2016-13 require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2019-10”), which revised the effective dates for ASU 2016-13 for public business entities that meet the SEC definition of a smaller reporting company to fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and the adoption did not materially impact the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity: Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in and Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”). The amendments in ASU 2020-06 reduce the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and revises certain guidance relating to the derivative scope exception and earnings per share. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a SEC filer and a smaller reporting company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those years. As a smaller reporting company, the Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2020-06 will have on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company carries investments at amortized cost. The fair value of the U.S. government securities investments is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The fair value of the corporate and agency bonds is determined based on "Level 2" inputs, which consist of quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. The Company has evaluated the unrealized loss position in the U.S. government securities and corporate and agency bonds as of the balance sheet date and did not consider it to be indicative of an other-than-temporary impairment as the securities are highly-rated and the Company expects to realize the full principal amount at maturity.

In evaluating the recoverability of the Company's raw material inventory on hand as of September 30, 2023, the Company considered the likelihood that revenue will be obtained from the future sale of the related inventory given the contractual arrangement with GSK, discussions with regulatory agencies, and other information currently available to the Company. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company

did not recognize any loss on the recoverability of its raw material inventory. Should the Company be notified by the FDA that the inventory on hand as of September 30, 2023 cannot be used for commercial or development activities, the Company may be required to recognize an impairment expense in future periods that could materially impact the financial statements.

7. Borrowings

Loan Agreement

On May 13, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into the Loan Agreement with Hercules and SVB for an aggregate principal amount of $60.0 million (the “Term Loan”). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Term Loan was available to the Company in four tranches, subject to certain terms and conditions.

In connection with the entering into of the License Agreement, the Company entered into a First Amendment and Consent to Loan and Security Agreement with the Lenders pursuant to which the Lenders consented to the Company entering into the License Agreement and the Company agreed to pay to the Lenders an amount equal to the sum of (i) all outstanding principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the amounts loaned under the Loan Agreement (approximately $35.4 million), (ii) the prepayment fee payable under the Loan Agreement ($262,500), (iii) the final payment payable under the Loan Agreement ($1,382,500), and (iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable with respect to loan advances under the Loan Agreement. Upon receipt by the Company of the $90.0 million upfront payment from GSK in May 2023, all amounts payable under the Loan Agreement were fully paid. In connection with the repayment of those amounts due, in May 2023, the Company and the Lenders executed a payoff letter confirming the amounts due under the Loan Agreement, and the Company’s confirmation that the Loan Agreement was terminated.

Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company received an initial tranche of $20.0 million from the Lenders on the closing date. The second tranche of the Term Loan, consisting of up to an additional $10.0 million, became available to the Company upon receipt of approval from the FDA of ibrexafungerp for the treatment of vaginal yeast infections (the “First Performance Milestone”) and was fully funded in June 2021. The third tranche of the Term Loan, consisting of an additional $5.0 million, became available to the Company upon (a) the First Performance Milestone and (b) the achievement of the primary endpoint from the Phase 3 study of ibrexafungerp in patients with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis, and was fully funded in March 2022. The Term Loan bore interest at a variable annual rate equal to the greater of (a) 9.05% and (b) the Prime Rate (as reported in the Wall Street Journal) plus 5.80% (the “Interest Rate”). As of December 31, 2022, the implied secured spread, risk free rate, and secured yield were 9.84%, 4.37%, and 14.21%. At December 31, 2022, the fair value of the loan payable was $34.4 million.

March 2019 Note Purchase Agreement

On March 7, 2019, the Company entered into a Senior Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (the “March 2019 Note Purchase Agreement”) with Puissance. Pursuant to the March 2019 Note Purchase Agreement, on March 7, 2019, the Company issued and sold to Puissance $16.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.0% Senior Convertible Notes due 2025 (“March 2019 Notes”), resulting in $14.7 million in net proceeds after deducting $1.3 million for an advisory fee and other issuance costs.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s March 2019 Notes consist of the convertible debt balance of $11.6 million and $11.0 million and the bifurcated embedded conversion option derivative liability of $0.2 million and $42,000, respectively. In connection with the Company’s issuance of its March 2019 Notes, the Company bifurcated the embedded conversion option, inclusive of the interest make-whole provision and make-whole fundamental change provision, and recorded the embedded conversion option as a long-term derivative liability in the Company’s balance sheet in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, at its initial fair value of $7.0 million as the interest make-whole provision is settled

in shares of common stock. The convertible debt and derivative liability associated with the March 2019 Notes are presented in total on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as the convertible debt and derivative liability. The derivative liability will be remeasured at each reporting period using the binomial lattice model with changes in fair value recorded in the statements of operations in other (income) expense. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized a gain of $0.2 million and a loss of $42,000, respectively, on the fair value adjustment for the derivative liability. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized a loss of $0.2 million and a gain of $1.1 million, respectively, on the fair value adjustment for the derivative liability. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $0.4 million and $0.2 million in amortization of debt issuance costs and discount related to the March 2019 Notes, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in amortization of debt issuance costs and discount related to the March 2019 Notes.

The Company estimated the fair value of the convertible debt and derivative liability for the March 2019 Notes using a binomial lattice valuation model and Level 3 inputs. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the convertible debt and derivative liability for the March 2019 Notes is $12.3 million and $10.8 million, respectively.

The March 2019 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning September 15, 2019. The March 2019 Notes will mature on March 15, 2025, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The March 2019 Notes constitute general, senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

Other Liabilities

In February 2021, the Company partnered with Amplity for the commercial launch of BREXAFEMME for the treatment of VVC. Under the terms of the agreement with Amplity, the Company was to utilize Amplity’s commercial execution and resources for sales force, remote engagement, training, market access and select operations services. In October 2022, the Company announced that it was actively pursuing a U.S. commercialization partner to out-license BREXAFEMME in order to refocus the Company's resources on the further clinical development of ibrexafungerp for severe, hospital-based indications. As a result, the Company wound down its promotional activities associated with BREXAFEMME, while keeping BREXAFEMME on the market and available to patients. On November 30, 2022, the Company terminated the agreement with Amplity. Under the terms of the original agreement, Amplity deferred a portion of its direct service fees in the first two years (2021 and 2022) that accrued interest at an annual rate of 12.75% (“Deferred Fees”). The Deferred Fees of $5.8 million as of December 31, 2022 were fully paid as of February 2023.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

On March 1, 2018, the Company entered into a long-term lease agreement for approximately 19,275 square feet of office space in Jersey City, New Jersey, that the Company identified as an operating lease under ASC 842 (the “Lease”). The lease term is eleven years from August 1, 2018, the commencement date, with total lease payments of $7.3 million over the lease term. The Company has the option to renew for two consecutive five-year periods from the end of the first term and the Company is not reasonably certain that the option to renew the Lease will be exercised. Under the Lease, the Company furnished a security deposit in the form of a standby letter of credit in the amount of $0.3 million, which was reduced by fifty-five thousand dollars on the first anniversary of the commencement date. The security deposit will continue to be reduced by fifty-five thousand dollars every two years on the commencement date anniversary for eight years. The security deposit is classified as restricted cash in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

License Arrangement with Potential Future Expenditures

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had a license arrangement with Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp., or Merck, as amended, that involves potential future expenditures. Under the license arrangement, executed in May 2013, the Company exclusively licensed from Merck its rights to ibrexafungerp in the field of human health. In January 2014, Merck assigned the patents related to ibrexafungerp that it had exclusively licensed to the Company. Ibrexafungerp is the Company's lead product candidate. Pursuant to the terms of the license agreement, Merck was originally eligible to receive milestone payments from the Company that could total $19.0 million upon occurrence of specific events, including initiation of a Phase 2 clinical study, new drug application, and marketing approvals in each of the U.S., major European markets, and Japan. In addition, Merck is eligible to receive tiered royalties from the Company based on a percentage of worldwide net sales of ibrexafungerp. The aggregate royalties are mid- to high-single digits.

In December 2014, the Company and Merck entered into an amendment to the license agreement that deferred the remittance of a milestone payment due to Merck, such that no amount would be due upon initiation of the first Phase 2 clinical trial of a product containing the ibrexafungerp compound (the “Deferred Milestone”). The amendment also increased, in an amount equal to the Deferred Milestone, the milestone payment that would be due upon initiation of the first Phase 3 clinical trial of a product containing the ibrexafungerp compound. In December 2016 and January 2018, the Company entered into second and third amendments to the license agreement with Merck which clarified what would constitute the initiation of a

11

Phase 3 clinical trial for the purpose of milestone payment. In January 2019, a milestone payment became due to Merck as a result of the initiation of the VANISH Phase 3 VVC program and was paid in March 2019. On December 2, 2020, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to the license agreement with Merck. The amendment eliminates two cash milestone payments that the Company would have paid to Merck upon the first filing of an NDA, triggered by the FDA acceptance for filing of the Company’s NDA for ibrexafungerp for the treatment of VVC, and first marketing approval in the U.S. Such cash milestone payments would have been creditable against future royalties owed to Merck on net sales of ibrexafungerp. With the amendment, these milestones will not be paid in cash and, accordingly, credits will not accrue. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company will also forfeit the credits against future royalties that it had accrued from a prior milestone payment already paid to Merck. All other key terms of the license agreement are unchanged.

April 2022 Public Offering

On April 22, 2022, the Company entered into an Equity Underwriting Agreement with Guggenheim Securities, LLC, as representative of the several underwriters, relating to the offering, issuance and sale (the “April 2022 Public Offering”) of (a) 3,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, (b) pre-funded warrants, in lieu of common stock, to purchase 11,666,667 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (c) warrants, which accompany the common stock or pre-funded warrants, to purchase up to an aggregate of 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The price to the public in the April 2022 Public Offering was $3.00 per share of common stock and accompanying warrants, or in the case of pre-funded warrants, $2.999 per pre-funded warrant and accompanying warrants, which resulted in $41.8 million of net proceeds to the Company after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses.

The prefunded warrants are classified as equity in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, given the prefunded warrants are indexed to the Company’s own shares of common stock and meet the requirements to be classified in equity. The prefunded warrants were recorded at their relative fair value at issuance in the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet and the prefunded warrants are considered outstanding shares in the basic earnings per share calculation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Common Stock Purchase Agreement and Sales Agreements

On April 10, 2020, the Company entered into the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Aspire Capital (the “Common Stock Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company had the right to sell to Aspire Capital from time to time in its sole discretion up to $20.0 million in shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. The Common Stock Purchase Agreement expired in October 2022. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company sold 50,000 and 425,000 shares of its common stock and received net proceeds of $0.1 million and $1.6 million under the Company's Common Stock Purchase Agreement, respectively.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company sold zero shares of its common stock under the Controlled Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreements with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (the “Sales Agreements”). During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company sold zero and 137,610 shares of its common stock and received net proceeds of zero and $0.7 million under the Company's Sales Agreements, respectively.

Warrants Associated with the March 2018, December 2020, and April 2022 Public Offerings

The outstanding warrants associated with the March 2018 and December 2020 public offerings contain a provision where the warrant holder has the option to receive cash, equal to the Black-Scholes fair value of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrant, as cash settlement in the event that there is a fundamental transaction (contractually defined to include various merger, acquisition or stock transfer activities). Due to this provision, ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, requires

15


Table of Contents

 

that these warrants be classified as liabilities. The fair values of these warrants have been determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and the changes in the fair value are recorded in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The outstanding warrants associated with the April 2022 Public Offering meet the definition of a derivative pursuant to ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and do not meet the derivative scope exception given the warrants do not qualify under the indexation guidance. As a result, the April 2022 Public Offering warrants were initially recognized as liabilities and measured at fair value using the Black-Scholes valuation model. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized a gain of $7.5 million and a loss of $6.5 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, recognized a loss of $6.0 million and a gain of $13.2 million, respectively, on the warrant liabilities fair value adjustment. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the warrant liabilities was $24.6 million and $18.6 million, respectively.

10. Stock-based Compensation

Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (“2014 Plan”), on January 1, 2023 and 2022, the Company automatically added 1,901,960 and 1,148,213 shares to the total number shares of common stock available for future issuance under the 2014 Plan, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, there were 653,355 shares of common stock available for future issuance under the 2014 Plan.

In July 2023, the Company’s board of directors amended the 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP Plan”), which was subsequently ratified by the Company’s stockholders and became effective on June 14, 2023. Common stock that may be issued under the ESPP Plan will not exceed 1,531,248 shares of common stock, which is the sum of: (i) the 4,779 shares of common stock originally approved; (ii) 26,469 shares of common stock that were added pursuant to the annual increase provision of the ESPP Plan between 2015 and 2023; and (iii) an additional 1,500,000 shares of common stock that were approved by our stockholders at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.

2015 Inducement Award Plan

As of September 30, 2023, there were 572,975 shares of common stock available for future issuance under the Company’s 2015 Inducement Award Plan (“2015 Plan”). During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, there were options to purchase zero and 109,000 shares of the Company’s common stock granted under the 2015 Plan, respectively.

The fair value of RSUs is based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. RSUs generally vest 25% annually over a four-year period from the date of grant. Upon vesting, the RSUs generally are net share settled to cover the required withholding tax with the remaining shares issued to the holder. The Company recognizes compensation expense for such awards ratably over the corresponding vesting period.

Compensation Cost

The compensation cost that has been charged against income for stock awards under the 2014 Plan and the 2015 Plan was $0.6 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and was $2.1 million and $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the statements of operations for share-based compensation arrangements was zero for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

11. Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of such instruments.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company evaluates its financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level in which to classify them for each reporting period. This determination requires significant judgments to be made.

The Company measures cash equivalents at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of cash equivalents is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. As of September 30, 2023, the cash and cash equivalents of $44.1 million and the restricted cash balances of $0.4 million and $0.2 million within short and long term on the balance sheet, respectively, sum to the total of $44.6 million as shown in the statement of cash flows.

Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the warrant liabilities for which there is no current market such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value the Level 3 warrant liabilities at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. This model incorporates transaction details such as the Company’s stock price, contractual terms, maturity, risk free rates, as well as volatility. The unobservable input for all of the Level 3 warrant liabilities includes volatility. The historical and implied volatility of the Company, using its closing common stock prices and market data, is utilized to reflect future volatility over the expected term of the warrants. At September 30, 2023, the range and weighted average of the Level 3 volatilities utilized in the Black-Scholes model to fair value the warrant liabilities were 90.4% to 108.0% and 91.1%, respectively.

The Company uses the binomial lattice valuation model to value the Level 3 derivative liabilities at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. This model incorporates transaction details such as the Company’s stock price, contractual terms, dividend yield, risk-free rate, adjusted equity volatility, credit rating, market credit spread, and estimated effective yield.

12. Revenue

Product (Loss) Revenue, Net

Net product (loss) revenue was $(0.6) million and $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1.0 million and $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Products are sold primarily to wholesalers and specialty pharmacies. Revenue is reduced from wholesaler list price at the time of recognition for expected chargebacks, rebates, discounts, incentives, and returns, which are referred to as gross to net (“GTN”) adjustments. These reductions are currently attributed to various commercial arrangements. Chargebacks and discounts are recognized as a reduction in accounts receivable or as accrued expenses based on their nature and settled through the issuance of credits to the customer or through cash payments to the customer, respectively. All other returns, rebates, and incentives are reflected as accrued expenses and settled through cash payments to the customer. Revenue attributed to sales to three wholesalers comprised 44%, 26%, and 28% of the Company’s gross revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

License Agreement with GSK

On March 30, 2023, the Company entered into a License Agreement with GSK. Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, the Company granted GSK an exclusive (even as to the Company and its affiliates), royalty-bearing, sublicensable license for the development, manufacture, and commercialization of ibrexafungerp, including the approved product BREXAFEMME, for all indications, in all countries other than Greater China and certain other countries already licensed to third parties (the “GSK Territory”). If the existing licenses granted to or agreements with third parties are terminated with respect to any country, GSK will have an exclusive first right to negotiate with the Company to add those additional countries to the GSK Territory. The parties closed the transactions contemplated by the License Agreement in May 2023.

The Company retains rights to all other assets, with GSK receiving a right of first negotiation (“ROFN”) to any other enfumafungin-derived compounds or products that the Company may control.

Under the terms of the License Agreement, the Company was entitled to a nonrefundable upfront payment of $90 million in May 2023. The Company is also eligible to receive potential:

regulatory approval milestone payments of up to $70 million;
commercial milestone payments of up to $115 million based on first commercial sale in invasive candidiasis (U.S./EU);
and sales milestone payments of up to $242.5 million based on annual net sales, with a total of $77.5 million to be paid upon achievement of multiple thresholds up through $200 million; a total of $65 million to be paid upon achievement of multiple thresholds between $300 million and $500 million; and $50 million to be paid at each threshold of $750 million and $1 billion.

The Company is responsible for the execution and costs of the ongoing clinical studies of ibrexafungerp but has the potential to receive up to $75.5 million in success-based development milestones, which are comprised of up to $65 million for the achievement of three interim milestones associated with the Company’s continued performance of the ongoing MARIO study and $10.5 million for the successful completion of the MARIO study. In June 2023, the Company earned a $25.0 million performance-based development milestone under the License Agreement which was collected by the Company in September 2023. This milestone payment follows a development goal for the Phase 3 MARIO study for ibrexafungerp in IC as the Company continues executing ongoing ibrexafungerp trials.

In the case of each of the above milestones, such milestone events are defined in the License Agreement. GSK will also pay royalties based on cumulative annual sales to the Company in the mid-single digit to mid-teen range. These royalty rates are subject to reduction, including in the event of third-party licenses, entry of a generic product, or the expiration of licensed patents. A joint development committee was established between GSK and the Company to coordinate and review ongoing development activities of ibrexafungerp. Unless earlier terminated, the License Agreement will expire on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis at the end of the royalty term for such product in such country. The Company has the right to terminate the License Agreement upon an uncured material breach by, or bankruptcy of, GSK. GSK has the right to terminate the License Agreement at any time for convenience in its entirety or on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis, upon an uncured material breach by, or bankruptcy of, the Company, or for safety reasons.

The Company evaluated the License Agreement in accordance with ASC 606 as it includes a customer-vendor relationship as defined under ASC 606 and meets the criteria to be considered a contract. The Company assessed the terms of the License Agreement and identified the following performance obligations which include: (1) the license for the development, manufacture, and commercialization of ibrexafungerp, including the approved product BREXAFEMME, in the GSK Territory, (2) the research and development activities for the MARIO study, and (3) performance obligations for the remaining research and development activities for the ongoing clinical and preclinical studies of ibrexafungerp. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company's product revenue, net comprised of sales of BREXAFEMME that the Company sold as principal given it maintains control of BREXAFEMME product until delivery to its wholesalers at which point control is transferred.

The Company considers the future potential development, regulatory, and commercial milestone payments as well as sales-based milestone and royalties to be variable consideration. The Company constrains variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that it will not result in a significant revenue reversal when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company will recognize consideration related to sales-based milestone and royalties when the subsequent sales occur pursuant to the royalty exception under ASC 606 because the license is the predominant item to which the royalties or sales-based milestone relate.

The total transaction price was $136.1 million as of June 30, 2023, which included the initial payment of $90.0 million and $45.0 million in success-based development milestones. Given the uncertain nature of these payments, the remaining potential development, regulatory, and commercial milestone payments from the License Agreement are not included in the transaction price as they are determined to be fully constrained as of September 30, 2023 under ASC 606. The Company will continue to reassess the transaction price, including estimated variable consideration included in the transaction price and all constrained amounts, in each reporting period and as uncertain events are resolved or other changes in circumstances occur.

The Company allocated the $136.1 million transaction price based on relative stand-alone selling prices of each of the performance obligations as $130.1 million for the license, $4.8 million for the research and development activities for the MARIO study and $1.2 million for the remaining ongoing clinical and preclinical studies of ibrexafungerp. The Company developed the estimated standalone selling price for the license using a Monte Carlo valuation analysis and for the research and development activities, the Company's utilized the estimate of costs to be incurred to fulfill its obligations associated with the performance of the research and development activities, plus a reasonable margin. In developing this estimate for the license, the Company applied significant judgment in the determination of the significant assumptions relating to forecasted future cash flows and discount rates.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company provided all necessary information to GSK for it to benefit from the license under the license term. Accordingly, the Company recognized $130.1 million in license agreement revenue at a point in time upon the transfer of the license to GSK as of June 30, 2023. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $2.4 million and $133.4 million in license agreement revenue. As of September 30, 2023, the Company recognized a $19.3 million contract asset associated with the success-based milestones associated with the ongoing clinical studies of ibrexafungerp. The clinical hold and recall create uncertainty as to the timing of achieving, and the Company's ability to achieve, the milestones under the License Agreement. The Company believes that the $19.3 million contract asset is collectible given the Company's probability assessment of achieving the milestone as defined in the License Agreement, ongoing development activities, and other information available to the Company. Should this situation change in the future, it is possible that the Company may be required to recognize an adjustment to revenue and an impairment of the contract asset resulting in some portion or all of the amount becoming uncollectible. This could materially impact the financial statements. Until the product recall, the Company continued to sell BREXAFEMME in the GSK Territory. The Company was the principal for these transactions under ASC 606 as the Company maintained control of the BREXAFEMME inventory that was then sold to its customers.

The Company recognized the revenue associated with the MARIO study and the remaining ongoing clinical and preclinical studies of ibrexafungerp over time using an input method. The input method is based on the actual costs incurred as a percentage of total budgeted costs towards satisfying the performance obligation as this method provides the most faithful depiction of the Company’s performance in transferring control of the services promised to GSK and represents the Company’s best estimate of the period of the obligation. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $0.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of revenue from the research and development activities associated with the MARIO study and the remaining ongoing clinical and preclinical studies of ibrexafungerp. As of September 30, 2023, there is $2.4 million and $1.6 million of current and long-term deferred revenue, respectively, which is expected to be recognized by the end of 2024.

License Agreement with Hansoh

In February 2021, the Company entered into an Exclusive License and Collaboration Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Hansoh (Shanghai) Health Technology Co., Ltd., and Jiangsu Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group Company Limited (collectively, “Hansoh”), pursuant to which the Company granted to Hansoh an exclusive license to research, develop and commercialize ibrexafungerp in the Greater China region, including mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan (the “Territory”). The Company also granted to Hansoh a non-exclusive license to manufacture ibrexafungerp solely for development and commercialization in the Territory. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, there was no license

agreement revenue recognized associated with the Agreement given the variable consideration was fully constrained as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

13. Subsequent Event

On November 7, 2023, a securities class action was filed by Brian Feldman against the Company and certain executives in the United States District Court, District of New Jersey, alleging that, during the period from March 31, 2023 to September 22, 2023, the Company made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, alleging specifically that the Company failed to disclose to investors: (1) that the equipment used to manufacture ibrexafungerp was also used to manufacture a non-antibacterial beta-lactam drug substance, presenting a risk of cross-contamination; (2) that the Company did not have effective internal controls and procedures, as well as adequate internal oversight policies to ensure that its vendor complied with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP); (3) that, due to the substantial risk of cross-contamination, the Company was reasonably likely to recall its ibrexafungerp tablets and halt its clinical studies; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, the Company’s statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. The complaint seeks unspecified damages, interest, fees and costs on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased and/or acquired shares of the Company’s common stock between March 31, 2023 to September 22, 2023. ASC Topic 450, Contingencies, requires a loss contingency to be accrued by a charge to operating results if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has not recognized a liability associated with the class action lawsuit contingency.

Overview

SCYNEXIS, Inc. is pioneering innovative medicines to overcome and prevent difficult-to-treat and drug-resistant infections. Ibrexafungerp is the first representative of this novel class of antifungals with additional assets from the “fungerp” family, including SCY-247, in pre-clinical stages of development. In June 2021 and December 2022, we announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved BREXAFEMME (ibrexafungerp tablets) for treatment of patients with vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), also known as vaginal yeast infection, and for the reduction in the incidence of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC), respectively.

Ibrexafungerp, the first representative of a novel class of antifungal agents called triterpenoids, is a structurally distinct glucan synthase inhibitor and has shown in vitro and in vivo activity against a broad range of human fungal pathogens such as Candida and Aspergillus genera, including multidrug-resistant strains, as well as Pneumocystis, Coccidioides, Histoplasma and Blastomyces genera. Candida and Aspergillus genera are the fungi responsible for approximately 85% of all invasive fungal infections in the United States (U.S.) and Europe. To date, we have characterized the antifungal activity, pharmacokinetics, and safety profile of the oral and IV formulations of ibrexafungerp in multiple in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies. The FDA has granted Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) and Fast Track designations to ibrexafungerp for the indications of VVC (including the prevention of recurrent VVC), invasive candidiasis (IC) (including candidemia), and invasive aspergillosis (IA), and has granted Orphan Drug designations for the IC and IA indications. The European Medicines Agency has granted Orphan Medicinal Product designation to ibrexafungerp for IC. These designations may provide us with additional market exclusivity and expedited regulatory paths.

On March 30, 2023, we entered into a license agreement (the License Agreement) with GlaxoSmithKline Intellectual Property (No. 3) Limited (GSK). Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, we granted GSK an exclusive (even as to us and our affiliates), royalty-bearing, sublicensable license for the development, manufacture, and commercialization of ibrexafungerp, including the approved product BREXAFEMME, for all indications, in all countries other than Greater China and certain other countries already licensed to third parties (the GSK Territory). The parties closed the transactions contemplated by the License Agreement in May 2023 and we received an upfront payment of $90.0 million. In June 2023, we announced the achievement of a $25.0 million performance-based development milestone under the License Agreement. This milestone payment follows a development goal for the Phase 3 MARIO study for ibrexafungerp in IC as we continue executing ongoing ibrexafungerp trials. See further details of the License Agreement, including financial terms, as described in Note 12 of Item 1 on this Quarterly Report.

We, Hercules Capital, Inc. (Hercules Capital) and Silicon Valley Bridge Bank, N.A. (now a division of First Citizens Bank, SVB) are party to a Loan and Security Agreement dated as of May 13, 2021 (the Loan Agreement), pursuant to which Hercules Capital, SVB and each of the other lenders from time-to-time party to the Loan and Security Agreement (collectively, the Lenders) loaned to us $35 million. In connection with the entering into of the License Agreement, we entered into a First Amendment and Consent to Loan and Security Agreement with the Lenders pursuant to which the Lenders consented to us entering into the License Agreement and we agreed to pay to the Lenders an amount equal to the sum of (i) all outstanding principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the amounts loaned under the Loan Agreement (approximately $35.4 million), (ii) the prepayment fee payable under Loan Agreement ($262,500), (iii) the final payment payable under Loan Agreement ($1,382,500), and (iv) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable with respect to loan advances

under the Loan Agreement. These payments became due upon the earliest of (A) one business day following receipt by us of the $90 million upfront payment payable to us under the License Agreement, (B) June 1, 2023, or (C) the termination of the License Agreement.

Following the closing of the transactions under the License Agreement, in May 2023, we received the upfront payment pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, which triggered the obligation of us to repay the amounts due under the terms of the First Amendment. In connection with the repayment of those amounts due, in May 2023, we and the Lenders executed a payoff letter confirming the amounts due under the First Amendment, and our confirmation that the Loan Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, was terminated.

Following a recent review by GSK of the manufacturing process and equipment at the vendor that manufactures the ibrexafungerp drug substance, we became aware that a non-antibacterial beta-lactam drug substance was manufactured using equipment common to the manufacturing process for ibrexafungerp. Current FDA draft guidance recommends segregating the manufacture of non-antibacterial beta-lactam compounds from other compounds since beta-lactam compounds have the potential to act as sensitizing agents that may trigger hypersensitivity or an allergic reaction in some people. In the absence of the recommended segregation, there is a risk of cross contamination. It is not known whether any ibrexafungerp has been contaminated with a beta-lactam compound and we have not received any reports of adverse events due to the possible beta-lactam cross contamination. Nonetheless, out of an abundance of caution and in line with GSK’s recommendation, we have recalled BREXAFEMME® (ibrexafungerp tablets) from the market and placed a temporary hold on clinical studies of ibrexafungerp, including the Phase 3 MARIO study, until a mitigation strategy is determined.

The patient-level and clinical product recall has been initiated and we are working with an experienced vendor to manage the process. We have begun engaging with the FDA and during a meeting in September 2023, the FDA concurred with our voluntary hold and placed a clinical hold. We are working to provide additional information to the FDA and discuss potential paths for resolution of this issue. The clinical hold and recall affect our two ongoing clinical studies: the Phase 3 MARIO study and a Phase 1 lactation study. The hold does not impact the recently completed FURI, CARES, VANQUISH and SCYNERGIA clinical studies, for which dosing is complete. The FDA determined that the compassionate use program for ibrexafungerp, which provides ibrexafungerp to patients with limited or no other treatment options, can continue provided the patient’s treating physician concludes a favorable benefit-risk assessment and the patient is made aware of and consents to the risk. This applies to patients currently in the program as well as for new patients, pending confirmation of available supply. Our pre-clinical stage compound, SCY-247, is not affected by these developments.

The clinical hold and recall create uncertainty as to the timing of achieving, and our ability to achieve, the milestones under the License Agreement.

On November 7, 2023, a securities class action was filed by Brian Feldman against us and certain of our executives in the United States District Court, District of New Jersey, alleging that, during the period from March 31, 2023 to September 22, 2023, we made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about our business, operations, and prospects, alleging specifically that we failed to disclose to investors: (1) that the equipment used to manufacture ibrexafungerp was also used to manufacture a non-antibacterial beta-lactam drug substance, presenting a risk of cross-contamination; (2) that we did not have effective internal controls and procedures, as well as adequate internal oversight policies to ensure that its vendor complied with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP); (3) that, due to the substantial risk of cross-contamination, we were reasonably likely to recall its ibrexafungerp tablets and halt its clinical studies; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, our statements about our business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. The complaint seeks unspecified damages, interest, fees and costs on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased and/or acquired shares of our common stock between March 31, 2023 to September 22, 2023.

Preclinical Developments – SCY 247

We continue progressing the IND-enabling development activities for SCY-247. SCY-247 is a broad spectrum antifungal with a potential oral and IV systemic therapeutic option for multiple drug-resistant pathogens. Some of these activities, including assessing the activity of the compound against Candida auris and Mucorales are being supported by NIH grants. We anticipate opening an IND for this compound in the second half of 2024.

Liquidity

We have operated as a public entity since we completed our initial public offering in May 2014, which we refer to as our IPO. We also completed a follow-on public offering of our common stock in April 2015 and public offerings of our common stock and warrants in June 2016, March 2018, December 2019, December 2020, and April 2022. Our principal source of liquidity is cash, cash equivalents, and investments which totaled $105.2 million as of September 30, 2023 and we have the availability to issue up to $46.2 million of our common stock under our at-the-market facility with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (Cantor) and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. (Ladenburg). See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for amounts sold

under the ATM with Cantor and Ladenburg, and the amounts sold under our common stock purchase agreement with Aspire Capital which expired in October 2022.

As of September 30, 2023, our accumulated deficit was $335.7 million. We expect we will continue to incur significant research and development expense as we continue to execute our research and drug development strategy. Consistent with our operating plan, we also expect that we will continue to incur significant selling, general and administrative expenses to support our public reporting company operations and ongoing operations, but that our selling, general and administrative expenses will decrease as we have ceased the active promotional activities associated with BREXAFEMME. As a result, we will need additional capital to fund our operations, which we may obtain through one or more of equity offerings, debt financings, other non-dilutive third-party funding (e.g., grants), strategic alliances and licensing or collaboration arrangements. We may offer shares of our common stock pursuant to our effective shelf registration statements, including under our ATM.

Collaborations and Licensing Agreements

We are party to a number of licensing and collaboration agreements with partners in human health, including: (1) GSK, a pharmaceutical company, which we exclusively (even as to us and our affiliates) provide a, royalty-bearing, sublicensable license for the development, manufacture, and commercialization of ibrexafungerp, including the approved product BREXAFEMME, for all indications, in the GSK Territory; (2) Merck, a pharmaceutical company, under which we exclusively licensed the rights to ibrexafungerp in the field of human health, and agreed to pay Merck milestones upon the occurrence of specified events as well as tiered royalties based on worldwide sales of ibrexafungerp when and if it is approved (in 2014, Merck assigned to us the patents related to ibrexafungerp that it had exclusively licensed to us and, as contemplated by the agreement, we will continue to pay milestones and royalties); (3) Hansoh, a pharmaceutical company, which we exclusively provide a license from us to research, develop and commercialize ibrexafungerp in the Greater China region, including mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, under which we are entitled to receive development and commercial milestones and royalties (4) R-Pharm, CJSC, or "R-Pharm," a leading supplier of hospital drugs in Russia, granting it exclusive rights in the field of human health to develop and commercialize ibrexafungerp in Russia and several non-core markets, under which we are entitled to receive potential milestones and royalties and reimbursement for certain development costs incurred by us (this agreement is not material to our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, or statements of cash flows); (5) Waterstone, an international pharmaceutical business, granting Waterstone exclusive worldwide rights to development and commercialization of SCY-635 for the treatment of viral diseases in humans, under which we are entitled to receive potential milestones and royalties; and (6) Cypralis Limited, or "Cypralis," a life sciences company, transferring to it certain cyclophilin inhibitor assets of ours, under which we are eligible to receive milestone payments upon the successful progression of certain Cypralis clinical candidates into later stage clinical studies and royalties payable upon product commercialization.

Components of Operating Results

Revenue

Revenue consists of license agreement revenue associated with GSK and product sales of BREXAFEMME. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our product revenue, net comprised of sales of BREXAFEMME that we sold as principal given we control BREXAFEMME product until delivery to our wholesalers at which point control is transferred.

Cost of Product Revenue

Cost of product revenue consists primarily of distribution, freight expenses, royalties due to Merck, and other manufacturing costs associated with BREXAFEMME. Prior to the regulatory approval of BREXAFEMME on June 1, 2021, we expensed as research and development the costs associated with the third-party manufacture of BREXAFEMME.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discover, develop, or improve potential product candidates we seek to develop. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing and other development efforts, and activities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Our research and development expense primarily consists of:

costs related to executing preclinical and clinical trials, including development milestones, drug formulation, manufacturing and other development;
salaries and personnel-related costs, including benefits and any stock-based compensation, for personnel in research and development functions;

fees paid to consultants and other third parties who support our product candidate development and intellectual property protection;
medical affairs related expense and salary that is incurred to discover, develop, or improve potential product candidates;
other costs in seeking regulatory approval of our products; and
allocated overhead.

Ibrexafungerp was the only key research and development project during the periods presented. We expect to continue to incur significant research and development expense for the foreseeable future as we continue our effort to develop ibrexafungerp, and to potentially develop our other product candidates, subject to the availability of additional funding.

The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any product candidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense consists primarily of salaries and personnel-related costs, including employee benefits and any stock-based compensation. This includes personnel in executive, finance, human resources, business development, medical affairs, marketing and commercial, and administrative support functions. Other expenses include facility-related costs not otherwise allocated to research and development expense, professional fees for accounting, auditing, tax and legal services, consulting costs for general and administrative purposes, information systems and marketing efforts.

Other Expense (Income)

All of our other income recognized in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, consists of amortization of debt issuance costs and discount, interest income, interest expense, other income, the warrant liabilities fair value adjustment, and the derivative liabilities fair value adjustment.

Income Tax Benefit

All of our income tax benefit recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 consists of an income tax benefit associated with the sale of our NOLs and research and development credits.

Revenue. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, revenue primarily consists of the $2.4 million in license agreement revenue associated the License Agreement with GSK and a product (loss) of $0.6 million as a result of the recall for BREXAFEMME. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, revenues consists of product sales of BREXAFEMME.

Cost of Product Revenue. Cost of product revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 consists primarily of distribution, freight, and royalty costs associated with BREXAFEMME.

Research and Development. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, research and development expenses increased to $6.5 million compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase of $36,000, or 1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily driven by an increase of $0.5 million in clinical expense, and an increase of $0.1 million in salaries primarily associated with medical affairs, offset in part by a $0.5 million decrease in CMC expense.

The $0.5 million increase in clinical development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily driven by an increase of $1.0 million in clinical expense for the MARIO study, offset in part by a decrease of $0.2 million associated with a Phase 1 study of oral ibrexafungerp that was substantially complete in the second quarter of 2023 and is intended to support the potential NDA filing for the treatment of IC, and a decrease of $0.3 million in expense associated with the VANQUISH study.

Selling, General & Administrative. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $5.0 million from $16.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease of $11.7 million, or 70%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily driven by a decrease of $8.9 million in commercial expense due to the costs incurred in the prior comparable period associated with the active promotion of BREXAFEMME which ceased in the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $1.6 million in salary related expense primarily driven by the workforce reduction in the fourth quarter of 2022 concentrated in the commercial and medical affairs functions, a decrease of $0.7 million in other medical affairs related expense, and a net decrease in other selling, general and administrative expense of $0.5 million.

Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs and Discount. For both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $0.4 million in amortization of debt issuance costs and discount. The 2023 and 2022 debt issuance costs and discount for our March 2019 convertible notes primarily consisted of an allocated portion of advisory fees and other issuance costs and the initial fair value of the derivative liability.

Interest Income. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $1.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in interest income; the increase was primarily due to the increase in the interest rate on our money market funds.

Interest Expense. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $0.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the repayment of the Loan Agreement in May 2023.

Warrant Liabilities Fair Value Adjustment. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized a gain of $7.5 million and a loss of $6.5 million, respectively, in the fair value adjustment related to the warrant liabilities primarily due to the decrease and increase in our stock price during the periods, respectively.

Derivative Liabilities Fair Value Adjustment. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized a gain of $0.2 million and a loss $42,000, respectively, in the fair value adjustment related to the derivative liabilities primarily due to the decrease and increase in our stock price during the respective periods, respectively.

Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs and Discount. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $2.6 million and $1.2 million in amortization of debt issuance costs and discount, respectively. The increase of $1.4 million, or 119%, was primarily driven by the recognition of $1.9 million in amortization during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 for the remaining debt issuance costs and discount associated with the loan payable with Hercules and SVB which was fully paid in May 2023. The 2023 and 2022 debt issuance costs and discount for our March 2019 convertible notes primarily consisted of an allocated portion of advisory fees and other issuance costs and the initial fair value of the derivative liability.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized a loss of $0.2 million and a gain of $1.1 million, respectively, in the fair value adjustment related to the derivative liabilities primarily due to the increase and decrease in our stock price during the respective periods.

Income Tax Benefit. Income tax benefit in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 consists of $4.7 million associated with the sale of a portion of our NOLs and research and development credits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

Through September 30, 2023, we have primarily funded our operations from net proceeds from equity and debt issuances and through revenue from development services. As of September 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents and investments of $105.2 million, compared to cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $73.5 million as of December 31, 2022. We believe our capital resources are sufficient to fund our on-going operations for a period of at least 12 months subsequent to the issuance of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The increase in our cash and cash equivalents and investments was primarily due to the $90.0 upfront receipt from the closing of the License Agreement, offset by the $37.0 million repayment in full of our Loan Agreement, the continued development costs associated with ibrexafungerp, and the payment of the deferred fees associated with Amplity. We have incurred annual net losses since our inception, although we anticipate net income for the current annual period given amounts received under the License Agreement with GSK. As of September 30, 2023, our accumulated deficit was $335.7 million.

Consistent with our operating plan, we expect to incur significant research and development expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses; however, we expect our selling, general, and administrative expenses will decrease as we have ceased the active promotion of BREXAFEMME. As a result of our continued significant expenses, we may need additional capital to fund our operations, which we may obtain through one or more of equity offerings, debt financings, or other non-dilutive third-party funding, strategic alliances and licensing or collaboration arrangements. We may offer shares of our common stock pursuant to our shelf registrations, including the related at-the-market facility entered into on May 17, 2021 with Cantor and Ladenburg. Upon closing of our License Agreement with GSK in May 2023, we received an upfront payment of $90.0 million, of which approximately $37.0 million was used to pay all amounts payable under the Loan Agreement with Hercules Capital and SVB.

Operating Activities

The $125.0 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was primarily due to the $90.0 million upfront receipt upon the closing of the License Agreement with GSK offset by the continued development costs associated with ibrexafungerp. Consistent with our operating plan, we expect to incur significant research and development expenses; however, we expect our selling, general and administrative expenses to decrease as we have ceased actively promoting BREXAFEMME.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $67.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily consisted of the $86.6 million net income adjusted for non-cash charges that included the loss on change in fair value of the warrant liabilities of $6.0 million, stock-based compensation expense of $2.1 million, and amortization of debt issuance costs and discount of $2.6 million, partially offset by a net unfavorable change in operating assets and liabilities of $30.3 million. The net unfavorable change in operating assets and liabilities was due to a net decrease in operating liabilities of $0.4 million and by a net increase of $30.0 million in operating assets. The net $30.0 million increase in operating assets is primarily due to a $19.3 million increase in license agreement contract asset associated with the License Agreement with GSK, a $7.4 million increase in inventory for raw material purchased in the current period, and an increase in accounts receivable and license agreement receivable of $2.5 million. The $0.4 million decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenue, other liabilities, and other was primarily due to the decrease of $5.8 million in other liabilities associated with the deferred fees due to Amplity that were fully paid as of February 2023 and a decrease of $2.5 million in accounts payable, offset primarily by a $4.1 million increase in deferred revenue associated with the License Agreement with GSK and a $3.9 million increase in accrued expenses due to the $3.5 million increase in expense for product recall.

Net cash used in operating activities of $57.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily consisted of the $48.4 million net loss adjusted for non-cash charges that included the gain on change in fair value of the warrant liabilities of $13.2 million, the gain on change in fair value of the derivative liabilities of $1.1 million, stock-based compensation expense of $3.2 million, and amortization of debt issuance costs and discount of $1.2 million, partially offset by a net favorable change in operating assets and liabilities of $0.7 million. The net favorable change in operating assets and liabilities was due to an increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses, other liabilities and other of $2.4 million partially offset by an increase in prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, inventory, and other of $1.7 million. The $2.4 million increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses, other liabilities, and other was primarily due to the increase of $2.3 million in other liabilities associated with the deferred fees due to Amplity. The increase in prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, inventory, and other of $1.7 million was primarily due to the increase in accounts receivable of $1.6 million in accounts receivable.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities of $32.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 consisted of purchases and maturities of short-term investments of $73.3 million and $40.6 million, respectively.

Net cash used in investing activities of $27.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, consisted primarily of purchases of short-term investments.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities of $36.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, consisted primarily of the full repayment of the Loan Agreement with Hercules and SVB in May 2023.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $48.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, consisted primarily of the gross proceeds of $45.0 million from the April 2022 Public Offering, the $2.2 million in gross proceeds from common stock issued under our at-the-market and common stock purchase agreements, and the $5.0 million received from the Loan Agreement, offset in part by payments of offering costs and underwriting discounts and commissions of $3.6 million.

Future Funding Requirements

We have generated limited revenue from the product sales for BREXAFEMME and we expect our product sales to decrease as we have ceased actively promoting BREXAFEMME. We expect to incur expenses in connection with our efforts to further development activities, particularly as we continue the research, development and clinical trials of, and seek regulatory approval for, product candidates. We anticipate that we will need substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing future operations. We anticipate that we will need substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing future operations.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

our ability to successfully achieve the development, regulatory, and commercial milestones under our License Agreement with GSK;

30


Table of Contents

 

the progress, and costs, of the clinical development of ibrexafungerp;
the outcome, costs and timing of seeking and obtaining FDA and any other regulatory approvals;
the ability of product candidates to progress through clinical development successfully;
our need to expand our research and development activities;
the costs associated with securing, establishing and maintaining commercialization and manufacturing capabilities;
our ability to maintain, expand and defend the scope of our intellectual property portfolio, including the amount and timing of any payments we may be required to make, or that we may receive, in connection with the licensing, filing, prosecution, defense and enforcement of any patents or other intellectual property rights;
our need and ability to hire additional management and scientific and medical personnel;
our need to implement additional, as well as to enhance existing, internal systems and infrastructure, including financial and reporting processes and systems and the associated compliance costs; and
the economic and other terms, timing and success of our existing licensing arrangements and any collaboration, licensing or other arrangements into which we may enter in the future.

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of net proceeds from equity offerings, debt financings, or other non-dilutive third-party funding (e.g., grants), strategic alliances and licensing arrangements, in particular the License Agreement with GSK. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interests of our common stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. Debt financing, similar to our Loan Agreement or the convertible senior notes we sold in March 2019 and April 2020, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through sales of assets, other third-party funding, strategic alliances and licensing or collaboration arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us.

Significant Estimates and Judgments

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us 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 our condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reported periods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on 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 readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our critical estimates and judgments are described within Item 7 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Management’s Evaluation of our Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of September 30, 2023, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities 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. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded based upon the evaluation described above that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

On November 7, 2023, a securities class action was filed by Brian Feldman against us and certain of our executives in the United States District Court, District of New Jersey, alleging that, during the period from March 31, 2023 to September 22, 2023, we made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about our business, operations, and prospects, alleging specifically that we failed to disclose to investors: (1) that the equipment used to manufacture ibrexafungerp was also used to manufacture a non-antibacterial beta-lactam drug substance, presenting a risk of cross-contamination; (2) that we did not have effective internal controls and procedures, as well as adequate internal oversight policies to ensure that its vendor complied with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP); (3) that, due to the substantial risk of cross-contamination, we were reasonably likely to recall its ibrexafungerp tablets and halt its clinical studies; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, our statements about our business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. The complaint seeks unspecified damages, interest, fees and costs on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased and/or acquired shares of our common stock between March 31, 2023 to September 22, 2023.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, except as follows:

There is uncertainty as to the timing of achieving, and our ability to achieve, the milestones under our License Agreement with GSK as a result of the clinical hold and recall resulting from the discovery of a non-antibacterial beta-lactam drug substance was manufactured using equipment common to the manufacturing process for ibrexafungerp.

Following a recent review by GSK of the manufacturing process and equipment at the vendor that manufactures the ibrexafungerp drug substance, we became aware that a non-antibacterial beta-lactam drug substance was manufactured using equipment common to the manufacturing process for ibrexafungerp. Current FDA draft guidance recommends segregating the manufacture of non-antibacterial beta-lactam compounds from other compounds since beta-lactam compounds have the potential to act as sensitizing agents that may trigger hypersensitivity or an allergic reaction in some people. In the absence of the recommended segregation, there is a risk of cross contamination. It is not known whether any ibrexafungerp has been contaminated with a beta-lactam compound and we have not received any reports of adverse events due to the possible beta-lactam cross contamination. Nonetheless, out of an abundance of caution and in line with GSK’s recommendation, we have recalled BREXAFEMME® (ibrexafungerp tablets) from the market and placed a temporary hold on clinical studies of ibrexafungerp, including the Phase 3 MARIO study, until a mitigation strategy is determined.

The patient-level and clinical product recall has been initiated and we are working with an experienced vendor to manage the process. We have begun engaging with the FDA and during a meeting in September 2023, the FDA concurred with our voluntary hold and placed a clinical hold. We are working to provide additional information to the FDA and discuss potential paths for resolution of this issue. The clinical hold and recall affect our two ongoing clinical studies: the Phase 3 MARIO study and a Phase 1 lactation study. The hold does not impact the recently completed FURI, CARES, VANQUISH and SCYNERGIA clinical studies, for which dosing is complete. The FDA determined that the compassionate use program for ibrexafungerp, which provides ibrexafungerp to patients with limited or no other treatment options, can continue provided the patient’s treating physician concludes a favorable benefit-risk assessment and the patient is made aware of and consents to the risk. This applies to patients currently in the program as well as for new patients, pending confirmation of available supply. Our pre-clinical stage compound, SCY-247, is not affected by these developments.

The clinical hold and recall create uncertainty as to the timing of achieving, and our ability to achieve, the milestones under the License Agreement.
