Note 1.

Organization and Recent Developments

Organization

Sonoma Pharmaceuticals, Inc., (the “Company”), was incorporated under the laws of the State of California in April 1999 and was reincorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in December 2006. The Company’s principal office is located in Petaluma, California. The Company is a specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to identifying, developing and commercializing unique, differentiated therapies to millions of patients living with chronic skin conditions. The Company believes its products, which are sold throughout the United States and internationally, have improved patient outcomes for more than five million patients globally by treating and reducing certain topical skin diseases including acne, atopic dermatitis, scarring, infections, itch, pain and harmful inflammatory responses.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2017 and for the three and six months then ended have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and on the same basis as the Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017, the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending March 31, 2018 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2017 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2017, and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on June 28, 2017.

Note 2.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

The Company reported a net loss of $6,378,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2017. At September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, the Company’s accumulated deficit amounted to $149,490,000 and $143,101,000, respectively. The Company had working capital of $13,992,000 and $19,355,000 as of September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively. The Company expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and may need to raise additional capital to pursue its product development initiatives, penetrate markets for the sale of its products.

The Company currently anticipates that its cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet its working capital requirements to continue its sales and marketing and research and development efforts for at least 12 months from the date of filing this report.

Note 3.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions include reserves and write-downs related to receivables and inventories, the recoverability of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets, valuation of equity and derivative instruments, debt discounts, valuation of investments, determination of the relative selling prices of the components sold to Invekra, and the estimated amortization periods of upfront product licensing fees received from customers. Periodically, the Company evaluates and adjusts estimates accordingly. The allowance for doubtful accounts represents probable credit losses of $11,000 and $14,000 at September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively. Additionally, at September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 the Company has allowances of $1,070,000 and $672,000, respectively, related to potential discounts, returns, distributor fees and rebates. The allowances are included in Accounts Receivable, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Net Loss per Share

The Company computes basic net loss per share by dividing net loss per share available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and excludes the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per share, if presented, would include the dilution that would occur upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive securities into common stock using the “treasury stock” and/or “if converted” methods as applicable. At September 30, 2017 and 2016, the following outstanding common stock equivalents have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per share because their impact would be anti-dilutive (all amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand).

	September 30,
	2017		2016
Restricted stock units		57,000		–
Options to purchase common stock		1,393,000		746,000
Warrants to purchase common stock		1,332,000		1,466,000
		2,782,000		2,212,000

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

The Company generates revenue from sales of its products to a customer base including hospitals, medical centers, doctors, pharmacies, distributors and wholesalers. The Company sells products directly to end users and to distributors. The Company also entered into agreements to license its technology and products.

The Company also provides regulatory compliance testing and quality assurance services to medical device and pharmaceutical companies.

The Company records revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability of the sale is reasonably assured.

The Company requires all product sales to be supported by evidence of a sale transaction that clearly indicates the selling price to the customer, shipping terms and payment terms. Evidence of an arrangement generally consists of a contract or purchase order approved by the customer. The Company has ongoing relationships with certain customers from which it customarily accepts orders by telephone in lieu of purchase orders.

The Company recognizes revenue at the time it receives confirmation that the goods were either tendered at their destination, when shipped “FOB destination,” or transferred to a shipping agent, when shipped “FOB shipping point.” Delivery to the customer is deemed to have occurred when the customer takes title to the product. Generally, title passes to the customer upon shipment, but could occur when the customer receives the product based on the terms of the agreement with the customer.

The selling prices of all goods are fixed, and agreed to with the customer, prior to shipment. Selling prices are generally based on established list prices. The right to return product is customarily based on the terms of the agreement with the customer. The Company estimates and accrues for potential returns and records this as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related revenue is recognized. Additionally, distribution fees are paid to certain wholesale distributors based on contractually determined rates. The Company estimates and accrues the fee on shipment to the respective wholesale distributors and recognizes the fee as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related revenue is recognized. The Company also offers cash discounts to certain customers, generally 2% of the sales price, as an incentive for prompt payment. The Company accounts for cash discounts by reducing accounts receivable by the prompt pay discount amount and recognizes the discount as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related revenue is recognized. Additionally, the Company participates in certain rebate programs which provide discounted prescriptions to qualified patients. The Company contracts with a third-party to administer the program. The Company estimates and accrues for future rebates based on historical data for rebate redemption rates and the historical value of redemptions. Rebates are recognized as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related revenue is recognized.

The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of new customers and monitors the creditworthiness of its existing customers to determine whether an event or changes in their financial circumstances would raise doubt as to the collectability of a sale at the time in which a sale is made. Payment terms on sales made in the United States are generally 30 to 60 days and are extended up to 90 days for initial product launches, payment terms internationally generally range from prepaid prior to shipment to 90 days.

In the event a sale is made to a customer under circumstances in which collectability is not reasonably assured, the Company either requires the customer to remit payment prior to shipment or defers recognition of the revenue until payment is received. The Company maintains a reserve for amounts which may not be collectible due to risk of credit losses.

In the event a sale is made to a customer under circumstances in which returns cannot be estimated, the Company defers recognition of the revenue until sell-through is confirmed.

Product license revenue is generated through agreements with strategic partners for the commercialization of Microcyn® products. The terms of the agreements sometimes include non-refundable upfront fees. The Company analyzes multiple element arrangements to determine whether the elements can be separated. Analysis is performed at the inception of the arrangement and as each product is delivered. If a product or service is not separable, the combined deliverables are accounted for as a single unit of accounting and recognized over the performance obligation period.

When appropriate, the Company defers recognition of non-refundable upfront fees. If the Company has continuing performance obligations then such up-front fees are deferred and recognized over the period of continuing involvement.

The Company recognizes royalty revenues from licensed products upon the sale of the related products.

Revenue from consulting contracts is recognized as services are provided. Revenue from testing contracts is recognized as tests are completed and a final report is sent to the customer.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, cost being determined on a standard cost basis (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis), or market.

Due to changing market conditions, estimated future requirements, age of the inventories on hand and production of new products, the Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on hand and records a provision to write down excess and obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value. The Company recorded reserves to reduce the carrying amounts of inventories to their net realizable value in the amounts of $191,000 and $61,000 at September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the fiscal 2018 presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on the Company’s previously reported condensed consolidated net loss.

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluates events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Based upon the evaluation, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adoption of Recent Accounting Standards

In March 2016 the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This update simplifies the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows.

On April 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-09. As a result of adopting ASU No. 2016-09, the Company has made an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. This change has been applied on a modified retrospective basis, with no material impacts on the Company’s financial statements. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 also requires excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies be recorded in the income statement as opposed to additional paid-in capital when the awards vest or are settled and recognize all previously unrecognized excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies upon adoption as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. As of April 1, 2017, the Company recognized excess tax benefit of approximately $533,000 as an increase to deferred tax assets. However, the entire amount was offset by a full valuation allowance. Accordingly, no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings was recorded as of September 30, 2017.

Additionally, the adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 related to the accounting for minimum statutory withholding tax requirements and cash paid by an employer when directly withholding shares for tax-withholding purposes had no impact on the Company's current consolidated financial statements or on any prior period financial statements presented.

Recent Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which defers by one year the effective date of ASU 2014-09. Accordingly, this guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) which finalizes its amendments to the guidance in the new revenue standard on assessing whether an entity is a principal or an agent in a revenue transaction. This conclusion impacts whether an entity reports revenue on a gross or net basis. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which finalizes its amendments to the guidance in the new revenue standard regarding the identification of performance obligations and accounting for the license of intellectual property. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12 Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which finalizes its amendments to the guidance in the new revenue standard on collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax, and transition. In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which continues the FASB’s ongoing project to issue technical corrections and improvements to clarify the codification or correct unintended applications of guidance. The amendments are intended to make the guidance more operable and lead to more consistent application. The amendments have the same effective date and transition requirements as the new revenue recognition standard. The Company will adopt the new standard on April 1, 2018 and currently plans to use the modified retrospective method. The majority of the Company’s business is ship and bill and, on that primary revenue stream, the Company does not expect significant differences. However, the Company’s analysis is preliminary and subject to change. The Company has not completed its assessment of multiple element arrangements and certain discount and trade promotion programs.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation–Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, clarifying when a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as a modification. The new guidance requires modification accounting if the fair value, vesting condition or the classification of the award is not the same immediately before and after a change to the terms and conditions of the award. The new guidance is effective for the Company on a prospective basis beginning on April 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2017-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, SEC and/or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Note 4.

Disposition of Latin American Operations

Description of Sale to Invekra

On October 27, 2016, the Company, along with its Mexican subsidiary and manufacturer Oculus Technologies of Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (“OTM”), closed on an asset purchase agreement with Invekra, S.A.P.I de C.V. (“Invekra”), an affiliate of Laboratorios Sanfer S.A. de C.V., for the sale of certain of its Latin America assets. Specifically, the Company agreed to sell certain patents, patent applications, trademarks and territory rights for Mexico, the Caribbean and South America, excluding the sale of dermatology products in Brazil, as well as to build and deliver equipment that Invekra will use to produce its own product.

The aggregate purchase price that Invekra will pay for the assets is $22,000,000, of which $18,000,000 was paid upon closing, $1,500,000 was paid on March 16, 2017 upon the delivery of certain equipment, and $2,500,000 is to be paid in Mexican currency in quarterly installments over a period of ten years from closing as consideration for the provision of certain services and providing technical assistance, calculated as three percent on net sales of certain products in Latin America, excluding Mexico. Because the $2,500,000 is to be paid in foreign currency, the Company may receive more or less than $2,500,000 due to currency fluctuations. During the six months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded $39,000 of service revenue and $33,000 of interest income related to technical assistance which is reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the six months ended September 30, 2017. The Company agreed to forego recognition any royalty in the second quarter until certain replacement parts will be delivered in the third quarter.

In connection with the asset purchase agreement, the Company agreed to provide the technology, know-how and assistance to Invekra to enable Invekra to manufacture on its own the products as currently produced by the Company (“Technical Services Arrangement”), and continue to supply product to Invekra for a two year transition period from the Sale Date, subject to mutual extension (“Supply Agreement”). During the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, the Company reported $754,000 and $1,323,000, respectively, of Latin America product revenue related to the Supply Agreement with Invekra.

The Company will provide product under the Supply Agreement at a reduced price from its current price list, while Invekra builds its own manufacturing line. At the conclusion of the transition period, the Company will cease to be a supplier of product to Invekra. The Company is uncertain as to the duration of the transition period or when Invekra will complete the build out of its manufacturing line. Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, the Company is subject to a potential penalty for failure to supply the products for a consecutive period of six months. The penalty, if triggered, will require the Company to make a one-time payment of $2,000,000 to Invekra. The penalty decreases by 12.5% each quarter of the term of the supply period. The Company does not expect to incur this penalty.

Discontinued operations

The Company determined that the sale of its Latin American operations to Invekra qualified as a sale of a component of its business and, as such, all such activity prior to consummation of the sale is required to be included in discontinued operations on the Company’s statement of operations. This includes the direct labor and materials for the product delivered to Invekra, the revenue on the sales to Invekra and the gain on the sale to Invekra, net of tax.

The operations of its Latin American business included in discontinued operations is summarized as follows:

Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

The Company, on occasion, may be involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business including matters involving proprietary technology. While management believes that such matters are currently insignificant, matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which the Company is or could become involved in litigation may have a material adverse effect on its business and financial condition of comprehensive loss.

Employment Agreements

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had employment agreements in place with six of its key executives. The agreements provide, among other things, for the payment of twelve to eighteen months of severance compensation for terminations under certain circumstances. With respect to these agreements, at September 30, 2017, aggregated annual salaries would be $1,167,000 and potential severance payments to these key executives would be $1,417,000 if triggered.

Stockholders’ Equity

Authorized Capital

The Company is authorized to issue up to 12,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share and 714,286 shares of convertible preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

Common Stock Issued to Services Provider

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with Actual, Inc., a firm that provides marketing and branding consulting services. On July 27, 2017, the Company issued 2,570 shares of restricted common stock valued at $6.74 per share and on August 22, 2017, the Company issued 3,133 shares of restricted common stock valued at $5.53 per share. The aggregate fair market value of the common stock issued was $35,000. The Company has determined that the fair value of the common stock was more readily determinable than the fair value of the services rendered. Accordingly, during the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded $35,000 of expense related to common stock issued. The expense was recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017.

Note 8.

Stock-Based Compensation

On April 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09 and, as a result, made a company-wide accounting policy change with respect to accounting for forfeitures. The Company applied a modified retrospective approach for adoption of the new policy and accordingly recorded an $11,000 increase to opening accumulated deficit at April 1, 2017. In accordance with the adoption of the accounting policy, the Company no longer estimates forfeitures based on historical experience and no longer reduces compensation expense based on the expected forfeitures. Beginning April 1, 2017, the Company will record forfeitures as they occur and will reduce compensation cost at the time of forfeiture.

The weighted average grant date fair values of options granted during the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 was $5.58 and $6.01, respectively.

Share-based awards compensation expense is as follows:

	Three Months				Six Months
	Ended				Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Cost of service revenue	$	49,000	$	66,000	$	93,000	$	134,000
Research and development		45,000		60,000		90,000		124,000
Selling, general and administrative		333,000		280,000		682,000		559,000
Total stock-based compensation	$	427,000	$	406,000	$	865,000	$	817,000

At September 30, 2017, there were unrecognized compensation costs of $2,999,000 related to stock options which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average amortization period of 2.43 years.

At September 30, 2017, there were unrecognized compensation costs of $239,000 related to restricted stock which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average amortization period of 1.69 years.

Stock-Based Award Activity

On April 1, 2017, pursuant to “evergreen” provisions in the 2011 Plan and the 2016 Plan, the number of shares authorized for issuance in the 2011 Plan increased by 643,383 shares and the number of shares authorized for issuance in the 2016 Plan increased by 343,137 shares.

Stock options award activity is as follows:

	Number of Shares			Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Weighted- Average Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at April 1, 2017		899,000		$	17.87
Options granted		536,000			6.83
Options exercised		(1,000	)		5.27
Options forfeited		(33,000	)		6.76
Options expired		(8,000	)		229.31
Outstanding at September 30, 2017		1,393,000		$	12.75		7.94	$	75,000
Exercisable at September 30, 2017		739,000		$	18.27		6.71	$	59,000

The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying stock options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock, or $5.22 per share at September 30, 2017.

Restricted stock award activity is as follows:

	Number of Shares			Weighted Average Award Date Fair Value per Share
Unvested restricted stock awards outstanding at April 1, 2017		34,000		$	7.27
Restricted stock awards granted		42,000			6.12
Restricted stock awards vested		(19,000	)		6.12
Unvested restricted stock awards outstanding at September 30, 2017		57,000		$	6.80

No income tax benefit has been recognized relating to stock-based compensation expense and no tax benefits have been realized from exercised stock options.

The Company did not capitalize any cost associated with stock-based compensation.

The Company issues new shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options or release of restricted stock awards.

Note 9.

Income Taxes

The Company has completed a study to assess whether a change in control has occurred or whether there have been multiple changes of control since the Company’s formation. The Company determined, based on the results of the study, no change in control occurred for purposes of Internal Revenue Code section 382. The Company, after considering all available evidence, fully reserved its deferred tax assets since it is more likely than not, such benefits, will not be realized in future periods. The Company incurred losses for both financial reporting and income tax purposes for the year ended March 31, 2017. Accordingly, the Company is continuing to fully reserve for its deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate its deferred tax assets to determine whether any changes in circumstances could affect the realization of their future benefit. If it is determined in future periods that portions of the Company’s deferred income tax assets satisfy the realization standards, the valuation allowance will be reduced accordingly.

As a result of certain realization requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities do not include certain deferred tax assets at September 30, 2017 that arose directly from tax deductions related to equity compensation in excess of compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes. Equity will be increased by approximately $533,000 if and when such deferred tax assets are ultimately realized.

Our Business

We are a specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to identifying, developing and commercializing unique, differentiated therapies to millions of patients living with chronic skin conditions. We believe our products, which are sold throughout the United States and internationally, have improved patient outcomes for more than five million patients globally by treating and reducing certain topical skin diseases including acne, atopic dermatitis, scarring, infections, itch, pain and harmful inflammatory responses.

We are focused on the development and commercialization of therapeutic solutions in medical dermatology to treat skin conditions, such as acne, atopic dermatitis and scarring. These diseases impact millions of patients worldwide and can have significant, multi-dimensional effects on patients’ quality of life, including their physical, functional and emotional well-being.

Some of our key products in the United States are:

Celacyn®, a prescription hypochlorous acid based scar management gel clinically proven to soften and flatten raised scars while reducing redness and discoloration.

Ceramax™ Skin Barrier Cream helps manage dry itchy skin, minor skin irritations, rashes, and inflammation caused by various skin conditions.

Mondoxyne™, a prescription oral tetracycline antibiotic used for the treatment of certain bacterial infections, including acne.

Alevicyn™, a prescription hypochlorous acid based atopic dermatitis product line clinically proven to reduce pruritus (itch) and pain associated with various dermatoses.

SebuDerm™, a prescription topical gel used as an alternative to corticosteroids for the management of the burning, itching and scaling experienced with seborrhea and seborrheic dermatitis.

Loyon™, a prescription liquid containing Cetiol® CC and medical grade dimethicone, intended to manage and relieve erythema and itching for various types of dermatoses.

Microcyn® (sold under a variety of brand names), a line of products based on electrically charged oxychlorine small molecules designed to target a wide range of pathogens including viruses, fungi, spores and bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant strains.

Our key product outside the United States is:

Microcyn® or Microdacyn60® (sold under a variety of brand names), a line of products based on electrically charged oxychlorine small molecules designed to target a wide range of pathogens including viruses, fungi, spores and bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant strains.

As of September 30, 2017, we have obtained 17 clearances from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, that permit us to sell our products as medical devices for Section 510(k) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act in the United States.

Outside the United States, we sell products for dermatological and advanced tissue care with a European Conformity marking (known as Conformité Européenne or CE) covering 25 of our products, and various approvals in China, Southeast Asia, South Korea, India, Australia, New Zealand, and the Middle East.

Our Strategy

Our strategy is to in-license, acquire, develop and commercialize unique, affordable and differentiated therapies that we believe advance the standard of care for patients with dermatological diseases. The key components of our strategy are to:

Expand our Internal U.S. Sales Force: We continue to hire additional experienced sales people who have established relationships with dermatologists in their territories and we currently have a sales force of 35 sales professionals.

Develop and Launch New Dermatology Products: We currently sell nine prescription dermatology products in the United States, and have a strong product pipeline of new products, including an oral antibiotic for severe acne and Ceramax™, which utilizes a “state of the art” skin repair technology.

In-License and Acquire New Product Candidates: Since beginning our turn-around strategy in 2014, we have executed multiple transactions resulting in adding new products and product candidates to our growing portfolio. In 2015, we acquired the U.S. marketing rights to Mondoxyne™, an oral antibiotic indicated for severe acne. In 2016, we in-licensed Ceramax™ indicated for various dermatoses, and Loyon® indicated as a descaler of various dermatoses and psoriasis.

Create a Competitive Pricing Strategy: We have and will continue to develop a unique product pricing strategy, which we believe solves many of the challenges associated with the prescription dermatology market’s current pricing and rebate programs.

Develop a Pharmaceutical Line: We plan to acquire or develop pharmaceutical products with affordable clinical trials to increase our market presence and create innovator patent protection.

Our plan is to evolve into a leading dermatology company, providing innovative and cost-effective solutions to patients, while generating strong, consistent revenue growth and maximizing long-term shareholder value.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

Revenues

Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $4,325,000 increased by $1,527,000, or 55%, as compared to $2,798,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Product revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $4,144,000 increased by $1,570,000, or 61%, as compared to $2,574,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was the result of strong growth in the United States, Europe, and the Rest of the World.

Product revenues in the United States for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $2,268,000 increased by $571,000, or 34%, as compared to $1,697,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was mostly the result of higher sales of our dermatology and acute care products, partly offset by a decline in sales of $120,000 related to our animal health care products.

Product revenue in Europe and the Rest of the World for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $1,122,000 increased by $245,000, or 28%, as compared to $877,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was mostly the result of higher sales in Europe, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and India partly offset by a decrease in the Middle East.

As a result of the asset purchase agreement and arrangement we entered into on October 27, 2016 with Invekra, we expect our revenues in Latin America will decrease significantly. We will continue to supply Invekra with product at a reduced price until they set up their manufacturing facility. During the three months ended September 30, 2017, we reported $754,000 of Latin America product revenue related to Invekra. Additionally, pursuant to the arrangement, we will receive a royalty of 2.5% on all Latin American net revenues excluding Mexico, with a minimum payment of $250,000 per year for the next ten years, to be paid quarterly in Mexican pesos.

The following table shows our product revenues by geographic region:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2017		2016		$ Change		% Change
United States	$	2,268,000	$	1,697,000	$	571,000		34%
Latin America		754,000		–		754,000		100%
Europe and Rest of the World		1,122,000		877,000		245,000		28%
Total	$	4,144,000	$	2,574,000	$	1,570,000		61%

In connection with our sale of our Latin American business to Invekra, product revenues and cost of revenues reported in the prior period were reclassified from continuing operations to discontinued operations as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2017		2016
Product revenues	$	–	$	1,235,000
Product license fees and royalties		–		76,000
Total product related revenues	$	–	$	1,311,000

Service revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $181,000 decreased by $43,000, or 19%, when compared to $224,000 in the prior period. The decrease in service revenues was related to a decrease in our lab services business.

Gross Profit

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we reported total revenues of $4,325,000 and total cost of revenues of $2,477,000, resulting in total gross profit of $1,848,000 or 43% of total revenues, compared to a gross profit of $1,036,000 or 37% of total revenues, for the same period in the prior year. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the reclassification, in the prior period, of Latin America product and license revenue and related variable cost of goods sold from continuing operations to discontinued operations. Additionally, as dermatology product revenues increase as an overall percentage of our product revenues, we expect our margins will improve due to higher gross margins associated with our dermatology products.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we reported product revenues of $4,144,000 and cost of product revenues of $2,308,000, resulting in product gross profit of $1,836,000, or 44% of product revenues, compared to product gross profit of $1,016,000, or 39% of product revenues, for the same period in the prior year. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the reclassification, in the prior period, of Latin America product and related variable cost of goods sold from continuing operations to discontinued operations. Additionally, as dermatology product revenues increase as an overall percentage of our product revenues, we expect our margins will improve due to higher gross margins associated with our dermatology products.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we reported service revenues of $181,000 and cost of service revenues of $169,000, resulting in service gross profit of $12,000, or 7% of service revenues, compared to service gross profit of $20,000, or 9% of service revenues, for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in service gross profit was primarily related to lower service revenue in the current period and the mix of tests and services performed.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $368,000 decreased by $11,000, or 3%, as compared to $379,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease is largely due to a decrease in spending on product development.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $4,337,000 increased by $694,000, or 19%, when compared to $3,643,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to higher sales expenses related to our growing dermatology sales force.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $10,000 increased by $9,000 when compared to $1,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in interest expense relates primarily to capital leases.

Interest Income

Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $18,000 increased by $17,000 when compared to $1,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is due to interest income earned on increased cash and cash equivalent balances.

Other Expense

Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $21,000 increased by $12,000 when compared to $9,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in other expense relates primarily to fluctuation in foreign exchange and increased franchise tax payments.

Loss from Continuing Operations

Loss from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $2,870,000 increased $231,000, or 9%, when compared to $2,639,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in net loss from continuing operations is due to $356,000 of income tax benefit recorded in the prior period offset by a decrease in loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $125,000 in the current period.

Income from Discontinued Operations, net of Tax

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax for the three months ended September 30, 2016 includes $1,046,000 of gross profit reclassified from continuing operations to discontinued operations during the period. Additionally, for the three months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded income tax expense related to the transaction in the amount of $356,000 and we recorded a $356,000 tax benefit resulting in no tax expense during the period.

Product revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $7,747,000 increased by $2,762,000, or 55%, as compared to $4,985,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was the result of strong growth in the United States, Europe, and the Rest of the World.

Product revenues in the United States for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $4,127,000 increased by $1,057,000, or 34%, as compared to $3,070,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was mostly the result of higher sales of our dermatology and acute care products, partly offset by a decline in sales of $265,000 related to our animal health care products.

Product revenue in Europe and the Rest of the World for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $2,297,000 increased by $382,000, or 20%, as compared to $1,915,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was mostly the result of increases in Europe, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand and India partly offset by a decrease in the Middle East.

As a result of the asset purchase agreement and arrangement we entered into on October 27, 2016 with Invekra, we expect our revenues in Latin America will decrease significantly. We will continue to supply Invekra with product at a reduced price until they set up their manufacturing facility. During the six months ended September 30, 2017, we reported $1,323,000 of Latin America product revenue related to Invekra. Additionally, pursuant to the arrangement, we will receive a royalty of 2.5% on all Latin American net revenues excluding Mexico, with a minimum payment of $250,000 per year for the next ten years, to be paid quarterly in Mexican pesos.

The following table shows our product revenues by geographic region:

	Six Months Ended September 30,
	2017		2016		$ Change		% Change
United States	$	4,127,000	$	3,070,000	$	1,057,000		34%

Service revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $413,000 decreased by $38,000, or 8%, when compared to $451,000 in the prior period. The decrease in service revenues was related to a decrease in our lab services business.

Gross Profit

For the six months ended September 30, 2017, we reported total revenues of $8,160,000 and total cost of revenues of $4,550,000, resulting in total gross profit of $3,610,000 or 44% of total revenues, compared to a gross profit of $2,017,000 or 37% of total revenues, for the same period in the prior year. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the reclassification, in the prior period, of Latin America product and license revenue and related variable cost of goods sold from continuing operations to discontinued operations. Additionally, as dermatology product revenues increase as an overall percentage of our product revenues, we expect our margins will improve due to higher gross margins associated with our dermatology products.

For the six months ended September 30, 2017, we reported product revenues of $7,747,000 and cost of product revenues of $4,221,000, resulting in product gross profit of $3,526,000, or 46% of product revenues, compared to product gross profit of $1,955,000, or 39% of product revenues, for the same period in the prior year. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the reclassification, in the prior period, of Latin America product and related variable cost of goods sold from continuing operations to discontinued operations. Additionally, as dermatology product revenues increase as an overall percentage of our product revenues, we expect our margins will improve due to higher gross margins associated with our dermatology products.

For the six months ended September 30, 2017, we reported service revenues of $413,000 and cost of service revenues of $329,000, resulting in service gross profit of $84,000, or 20% of service revenues, compared to service gross profit of $62,000, or 14% of service revenues, for the same period in the prior year. The increase in service gross profit was primarily related to the mix of tests and services performed.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $750,000 increased by $11,000, or 1%, as compared to $739,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is largely due to an increase in spending on product development.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $9,100,000 increased by $1,327,000, or 17%, when compared to $7,773,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The increase for the six months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to higher sales expenses related to our growing dermatology sales force.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $20,000 increased by $18,000 when compared to $2,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in interest expense relates primarily to capital leases.

Interest Income

Interest income for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $71,000 increased by $69,000 when compared to $2,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is due to interest income earned on increased cash and cash equivalent balances.

Other Expense

Other expense for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $189,000 increased by $183,000 when compared to $6,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in other expense relates primarily to fluctuation in foreign exchange and increased franchise tax payments.

Loss from Continuing Operations

Loss from continuing operations for the six months ended September 30, 2017 of $6,378,000 increased $552,000, or 9%, when compared to $5,826,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in net loss from continuing operations is due to $675,000 of income tax benefit recorded in the prior period offset by a decrease in loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $123,000 in the current period.

Income from Discontinued Operations, net of Tax

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax for the six months ended September 30, 2016 includes $1,984,000 of gross profit reclassified from continuing operations to discontinued operations during the period. Additionally, for the six months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded income tax expense related to the transaction in the amount of $675,000 and we recorded a $675,000 tax benefit resulting in no tax expense during the period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We reported a net loss of $6,378,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2017. At September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, our accumulated deficit amounted to $149,490,000 and $143,101,000, respectively. We had working capital of $13,992,000 and $19,355,000 as of September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively.

We currently anticipate that our cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements to continue our sales and marketing and research and development efforts for at least 12 months from the date of filing this report.

Sources of Liquidity

As of September 30, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9,983,000. Since our inception, substantially all of our operations have been financed through sales of equity securities. Other sources of financing that we have used to date include our revenues, as well as various loans and the sale of certain Latin American assets to Invekra.

Since October 1, 2015, substantially all of our operations have been financed through the following transactions:

proceeds of $150,000 received from the exercise of common stock purchase warrants and options;

net proceeds of $2,994,000 received from an underwritten public offering on March 18, 2016;

net proceeds of $1,150,000 received from the sale of common stock through our At the Market Issuance Sales Agreement

net proceeds of $18,639,000 received from the sale of certain Latin America assets to Invekra on October 27, 2016.

Cash Flows

As of September 30, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9,983,000, compared to $17,461,000 as of March 31, 2017.

Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended September 30, 2017 was $7,233,000, primarily due to our net loss of $6,378,000 offset by stock related compensation of $900,000 in the period. Additionally, we had increases in prepaid expenses of $681,000 mostly related to taxes in Mexico, an increase in accounts receivables of $886,000 and inventories of $310,000 related to increased sales.

Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended September 30, 2016 was $4,001,000, primarily due to our net loss of $4,517,000.

Net cash used in investing activities was $176,000 for six months ended September 30, 2017, primarily related to the purchase of equipment.

Net cash used in investing activities was $59,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2016, consisting of primarily $64,000 related to equipment purchases and $5,000 related to changes in long-term assets.

Net cash used in financing activities was $92,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2017 related to principal payments on debt and capital leases of $144,000 offset by proceeds from exercise of common stock purchase warrants of $52,000.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended September 30, 2016 was $100,000 related to principal payments on debt.

Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements

We may need to raise additional capital from external sources in order to continue the long-term efforts contemplated under our business plan. We expect to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and may need to raise additional capital to pursue our product development initiatives and to penetrate markets for the sale of our products.

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

our current and future revenues;

the scope, rate of progress and cost of our research and development activities;

future clinical trial results;

the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing and other arrangements that we may establish;

the cost and timing of regulatory approvals;

the cost and delays in product development as a result of any changes in regulatory oversight applicable to our products;

the cost and timing of establishing sales, marketing and distribution capabilities;

the effect of competing technological and market developments;

the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights; and

the extent to which we acquire or invest in businesses, products and technologies.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions include reserves and write-downs related to receivables and inventories, the recoverability of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance related to our deferred tax assets, valuation of equity and derivative instruments, debt discounts, valuation of investments and the estimated amortization periods of upfront product licensing fees received from customers.

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements 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.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of 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 Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management was necessarily required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2017.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

On occasion, we may be involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of our business including matters involving proprietary technology. While management believes that such matters are currently insignificant, matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which we are or could become involved in litigation may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of comprehensive loss.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors
