1.Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of Business
Evofem is a San Diego-based commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to commercializing innovative products to address unmet needs in women’s sexual and reproductive health.
The Company’s first commercial product, PHEXXI, was approved by the FDA on May 22, 2020, for the prevention of pregnancy and launched in the U.S. in September 2020. PHEXXI is the first and only non-hormonal prescription contraceptive vaginal gel. Women use it when they have sex, applying PHEXXI 0-60 minutes prior to intercourse. Because PHEXXI is hormone-free and non-systemic, it is not associated with side effects of hormonal contraceptive methods, such as depression, weight gain, headaches, loss of libido, mood swings and irritability. Taking hormones may not be right for some women, especially those with certain medical conditions including clotting disorders, hormone-sensitive cancers, diabetes, or a BMI over 30, as well as women who are breast feeding, and / or who smoke. Per NCHS-published data, more than 23.3 million women in the U.S. do not want to get pregnant and will not use a hormonal contraceptive.
The Company acquired global rights to SOLOSEC® on July 14, 2024 and relaunched the brand in November 2024. SOLOSEC is an FDA-approved single-dose oral antimicrobial agent that provides a complete course of therapy for the treatment of two common sexual health infections – bacterial vaginosis (BV) and trichomoniasis. This acquisition aligns with and advances the Company’s mission to commercialize innovative and differentiated products for women’s sexual and reproductive health. The Transferred Assets, as defined in the SOLOSEC Asset Purchase Agreement, included all registered intellectual property related to SOLOSEC (SOLOSEC IP) as well as assorted SOLOSEC-related documentation and contracts. The Company accounted for this acquisition as an asset acquisition, pursuant to which the Company recorded contingent liabilities for the fair value of future sales-based payments and an intangible asset for the fair value of the SOLOSEC IP plus certain transaction costs; see Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies for more detailed information about the asset acquisition accounting and fair value methodology.
Outside the U.S., the Company’s strategy is to commercialize its products in global markets through commercial partnerships and/or license agreements. PHEXXI was approved in Nigeria on October 6, 2022, as Femidence™ by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control. PHEXXI has been submitted for approval in Mexico, Ethiopia and Ghana. In July 2024, the Company licensed commercial rights to PHEXXI in the Middle East to Pharma 1 Drug Store, LLC, an emerging Emirati health care company (Pharma 1). Pharma 1 is on track to file for regulatory approval of PHEXXI in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the second quarter of 2025.
On December 11, 2023, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended, (the Merger Agreement) with Aditxt, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Aditxt) and Adifem, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Aditxt (Merger Sub), respectively, (collectively, the Parties), pursuant to which, and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, the Merger Sub is expected to merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Aditxt (the Merger). The Parties entered into an amended and restated Merger Agreement in July 2024 which was subsequently amended in August, September, October, and November 2024 and again in March 2025 (collectively, the A&R Merger Agreement).
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The Company prepared the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (GAAP) in the United States for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) related to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.
The Company’s financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis, which include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP for annual audited financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 24, 2025 as amended on March 28, 2025 (the 2024 Audited Financial Statements).
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and statements of convertible and redeemable preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit for the periods presented. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from the 2024 Audited Financial Statements.
Risks, Uncertainties and Going Concern
Any disruptions in the commercialization of PHEXXI or SOLOSEC and/or the products’ supply chains could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business and does not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company’s principal operations are related to the commercialization of PHEXXI and, since July 2024, SOLOSEC. Additional activities have included raising capital, identifying alternative manufacturing to lower PHEXXI cost of goods sold (COGS), seeking ex-U.S. licensing partners to add non-dilutive capital to the balance sheet and geographically diversify the revenue stream, seeking product in-licensing/acquisition opportunities to expand and diversify the U.S. revenue stream, and establishing and maintaining a corporate infrastructure to support commercial products. The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficit of $65.0 million and an accumulated deficit of $896.7 million.
On January 6, 2025, the Company received a written notice from the OTC Markets notifying the Company that, because the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock was below $0.01 per share for 30 consecutive calendar days, the Company was not compliant with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the OTCQB, as set forth in the OTCQB listing standards, section 2.3 (the Minimum Bid Price Requirement). In accordance with OTCQB Listing Standards, Section 4.1, the Company had 90 calendar days, or until April 6, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Compliance could have been achieved if the Company’s closing bid price was equal to or greater than $0.01 for ten consecutive trading days during the 90-day compliance period.
On April 22, 2025, the Company received a written notice from the OTC Markets that it did not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the specified period, and as such, its common stock was removed from OTCQB and began trading on the OTC Pink Current (OTCPK) at market open on April 23, 2025. OTC Markets concurrently notified the Company that if the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock is $0.01 or higher for 30 consecutive calendar days, and the Company meets all of the eligibility requirements listed under Section 1 of the OTCQB Rules, Evofem may request to be moved back to OTCQB.
Management’s plans to meet its cash flow needs in the next 12 months include generating recurring product revenue from PHEXXI and SOLOSEC, restructuring its current payables, and obtaining additional funding pursuant to the A&R Merger Agreement, as amended, through non-dilutive financings, collaborations or partnerships with other companies, including license agreements for PHEXXI and/or SOLOSEC in the U.S. or foreign markets, or through other potential business combinations.
The Company anticipates it will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future. According to management estimates, liquidity resources as of March 31, 2025, were not sufficient to maintain the Company’s cash flow needs for the twelve months from the date of issuance of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
If the Company is not able to obtain the required funding through a significant increase in revenue, equity or debt financings, license agreements for PHEXXI and/or SOLOSEC, or other means, or is unable to obtain funding on terms favorable to the Company, or if there is another event of default affecting the notes payable, there will be a material adverse effect on commercialization operations and the Company’s ability to execute its strategic development plan for future growth. If the Company cannot successfully raise additional funding and implement its strategic development plan, the Company may be forced to make further reductions in spending, including spending in connection with its commercialization activities, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible at a potentially lower amount than as recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements, suspend or curtail planned operations, or cease operations entirely. Any of these could materially and adversely affect the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and business prospects, and the Company would not be able to continue as a going concern. The Company has concluded that these circumstances and the uncertainties associated with the Company’s ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing on terms that are favorable to the Company, or at all, and otherwise succeed in its future operations raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto.
Significant estimates affecting amounts reported or disclosed in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to: the assumptions used in measuring the revenue gross-to-net variable consideration items; the trade accounts receivable credit loss reserve estimate; the assumptions used in estimating the fair value of convertible notes, preferred stock, warrants and purchase rights issued; the assumptions used in the valuation of inventory, intangible asset, and contingent liabilities; the useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets; and the valuation of deferred tax assets. These assumptions are more fully described in Note 3 – Revenue, Note 4 – Debt, Note 6 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies, and Note 9 - Stock-based Compensation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and adjusts when facts and circumstances dictate. The estimates are the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and recorded expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results may materially differ from those estimates or assumptions.
Segment Reporting
Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker (CODM), the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one operating segment. The Company’s CODM assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources for the Company’s one operating segment based on consolidated net loss that is reported on the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company has also evaluated the significant segment expenses incurred by the single segment that are regularly provided to the CODM. The significant segment expenses regularly provided to the CODM are consistent with those reported on the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and include cost of goods sold, research and development, selling and marketing, and general and administrative. The CODM uses these expense categories, along with data on product sales, net, to make key operating decisions such as: the strategic direction of the Company, pursuing and/or approving product acquisitions, decisions about key personnel, and approving annual operating budgets. The Company manages assets on a consolidated basis as reported on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Deposits in the Company’s checking, time deposit and investment accounts are maintained in federally insured financial institutions and are subject to federally insured limits or limits set by Securities Investor Protection Corporation. The Company invests in funds through a major U.S. bank and is exposed to credit risk in the event of default to the extent of amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant concentrations of credit risk on its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances on amounts in excess of federally insured limits due to the financial position of the depository institutions in which these deposits are held.
The Company is also subject to credit risk related to its trade accounts receivable from product sales. Its customers are located in the U.S. and consist of wholesale distributors, retail pharmacies, and mail-order specialty pharmacies. The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business after evaluating their overall financial condition and evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable by periodically reviewing the age of the receivables, the financial condition of its customers, and its past collection experience. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, based on the evaluation of these factors, the Company did not record an allowance for expected credit losses.
Products are distributed primarily through three major distributors and mail-order pharmacies, which receive service fees calculated as a percentage of the gross sales and a fee-per-unit shipped, respectively. These entities are not obligated to purchase any set number of units; they distribute products on demand as orders are received.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company’s three largest customers combined made up approximately 75% and82% of its gross product sales, respectively. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s three largest customers combined made up 71% and 89%, respectively, of its trade accounts receivable balance.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to the significant accounting policies that were described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the 2024 Audited Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents consist of readily available cash in checking accounts and money market funds. Restricted cash consists of cash held in monthly time deposit accounts and letters of credit as described in Note 7- Commitments and Contingencies.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. The net income (loss) available to common stockholders is adjusted for amounts in accumulated deficit related to the deemed dividends triggered for certain financial instruments. Such adjustment was immaterial in each of the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock and if-converted methods. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2024, potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive and, therefore, basic and diluted net loss per share were the same. Potentially dilutive securities excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share are summarized in the table below. Common shares were calculated for the convertible preferred stock and the convertible debt using the if-converted method.
Schedule of Potentially Dilutive Securities Excluded from Calculation of Diluted Net Loss Per Share
The following table sets forth the computation of net income attributable to common stockholders, weighted average common shares outstanding for diluted net income per share, and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (in thousands, except share and per share amounts).
Schedule of Weighed Average Common Shares Outstanding for Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
No significant new standards have been adopted during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — Not Yet Adopted
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standards setting bodies that are adopted as of the specified effective date.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, designed to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements on a variety of topics and align the requirements in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) with the SEC regulations. This guidance is effective for the Company no later than June 30, 2027. The Company is still evaluating the impacts of ASU No. 2023-06.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, addressing income tax disclosures, requiring entities to annually disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for certain reconciling items and categories. ASU No. 2023-09 will be effective for the Company beginning with the annual filing for the period ended December 31, 2025 and early adoption is allowed. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts of ASU No. 2023-09.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” which primarily requires disaggregation of specific expense categories in disclosures within the footnotes on an annual and interim basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Company’s annual period ending December 31, 2027 and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 to clarify the effective date of ASU 2024-03. The Company is still evaluating the impacts of ASU No. 2024-03 and ASU No. 2025-01.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-04, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments, designed to clarify the requirements for accounting for the settlement of a debt as an induced conversion versus as an extinguishment. This guidance is effective for the Company no later than January 1, 2026. The Company is still evaluating the impacts of ASU No. 2024-04.
The Company does not believe the impact of any other recently issued standards and any issued but not yet effective standards will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
3.Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of PHEXXI and SOLOSEC in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers(ASC 606). The provisions of ASC 606 require the following steps to determine revenue recognition: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the product to a customer. In accordance with the Company’s contracts with customers, control of the product is transferred upon the conveyance of title, which occurs when the product is sold to and received by a customer. The Company’s customers are located in the U.S. and consist of wholesale distributors, retail pharmacies, and mail-order specialty pharmacies. Payment terms typically range from 31to 66days, include prompt pay discounts, and vary by customer. Trade accounts receivable due to the Company from contracts with its customers are stated separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, net of various allowances as described in the Trade Accounts Receivable policy in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the 2024 Audited Financial Statements.
The amount of revenue recognized by the Company is equal to the amount of consideration that is expected to be received from the sale of product to its customers. Revenue is only recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied. To determine whether a significant reversal will occur in future periods, the Company assesses both the likelihood and magnitude of any such potential reversal of revenue.
Our products are sold to customers at the Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC), or in some cases at a discount to WAC. However, the Company records product revenue net of reserves for applicable variable consideration. These types of variable consideration reduce revenue and include the following:
An estimate for variable consideration is made with each sale and is recorded in conjunction with the revenue being recognized. To calculate the variable consideration, the Company uses the expected value method and the estimated amounts are recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable or as a current liability based on the nature of the allowance and the terms of the related arrangements. An estimated amount of variable consideration may differ from the actual amount. At each balance sheet date, these provisions are analyzed and adjustments are made if necessary. Any adjustments made to these provisions would also affect net product revenue and earnings.
In accordance with ASC 606, the Company must make significant judgments to determine the estimate for certain variable consideration. For example, the Company must estimate the percentage of end-users that will obtain the product through public insurance such as Medicaid or through private commercial insurance. To determine these estimates, the Company relies on historical sales data showing the amount of various end-user consumer types, inventory reports from the wholesale distributors and mail-order specialty pharmacy, and other relevant data reports.
The specific considerations that the Company uses in estimating these amounts related to variable consideration are as follows:
Distribution services fees – The Company pays distribution service fees to its wholesale distributors and mail-order specialty pharmacies. These fees are a contractually fixed percentage of WAC and are calculated at the time of sale based on the purchase amount. The Company considers these fees to be separate from the customer’s purchase of the product and, therefore, they are recorded in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Prompt pay and other discounts – The Company incentivizes its customers to pay their invoices on time through prompt pay discounts. These discounts are an industry standard practice, and the Company offers a prompt pay discount to each wholesale distributor and retail pharmacy customers. The specific prompt pay terms vary by customer and are contractually fixed. Prompt pay discounts are typically taken by the Company’s customers, so an estimate of the discount is recorded at the time of sale based on the purchase amount. Prompt pay discount estimates are recorded as contra trade accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company may also give other discounts to its customers to incentivize purchases and promote customer loyalty. The terms of such discounts may vary by customer. These discounts reduce gross product revenue at the time the revenue is recognized.
Product returns – Customers have the right to return product that is within six months or less of the labeled expiration date or that is past the expiration date by no more than twelve months. PHEXXI was commercially launched in September 2020 with a 30-month shelf life. The shelf life increased to 48 months in June 2022. SOLOSEC has a shelf life of 60 months. The Company uses historical sales and return data to estimate future product returns. Product return estimates are recorded as other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Chargebacks– Certain government entities and covered entities (e.g., Veterans Administration, 340B covered entities, group purchasing organizations) are able to purchase products at a price discounted below WAC. The difference between the government or covered entity purchase price and the wholesale distributor purchase price of WAC will be charged back to the Company. The Company estimates the amount of each chargeback channel based on the expected number of claims in each channel and related chargeback that is associated with the revenue being recognized for product that remains in the distribution channel at the end of each reporting period. Estimated chargebacks are recorded as contra trade accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Rebates – The Company is subject to mandatory discount obligations under the Medicaid and Tricare programs. The rebate amounts for these programs are determined by statutory requirements or contractual arrangements. Rebates are owed after the product has been dispensed to an end user and the Company has been invoiced. Rebates for Medicaid and Tricare are invoiced in arrears. The Company also has a commercial rebate program whereby certain customers receive a rebate as contractually arranged. The Company estimates the amount of rebates based on the expected number of claims and related cost that is associated with the revenue being recognized for product that remains in the distribution channel at the end of each reporting period. Rebate estimates are recorded as other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Patient support programs – The Company voluntarily offers a co-pay program to provide financial assistance to patients meeting certain eligibility requirements. The Company estimates the amount of financial assistance for these programs based on the expected number of claims and related cost associated with the revenue being recognized for product that remains in the distribution channel at the end of each reporting period.

Convertible Notes
Baker Notes (temporarily owned by Aditxt from December 11, 2023 through February 26, 2024 and owned by Future Pak, LLC since July 23, 2024)
On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase and Security Agreement (the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement) with certain affiliates of Baker Bros. Advisors LP, as purchasers (the Baker Purchasers), and Baker Bros. Advisors LP, as designated agent, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Baker Purchasers (i) convertible senior secured promissory notes (the Baker Notes) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25.0million and (ii) warrants to purchase shares of common stock (the Baker Warrants) in a private placement, which closed in two closings (April 24, 2020, the Baker Initial Closing, and June 9, 2020, the Baker Second Closing). As a result of the two closings, the Company issued and sold Baker Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $25.0million and Baker Warrants exercisable for 2,731shares of common stock. Upon the completion of the underwritten public offering in June 2020, the exercise price of the Baker Warrants was $4,575per share. The Baker Warrants have a five-year5 term with a cashless exercise provision and are immediately exercisable at any time from their respective issuance date. The April 2020 Baker Warrants expired on April 24, 2025. The June 2020 Baker Warrants will expire on June 9, 2025 unless earlier exercised.
The Baker Notes have a five-year5 term, with no pre-payment ability during the first three years. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Baker Notes (the Baker Outstanding Balance) accrues at 10.0% per annum, with interest accrued during the first year from the two respective closing dates recognized as payment-in-kind. The effective interest rate for the periods was 10.0%. Accrued interest beyond the first year of the respective closing dates is to be paid in arrears on a quarterly basis in cash or recognized as payment-in-kind, at the direction of the Baker Purchasers. As discussed below, with the amendment to the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement, interest payments were paid in-kind. Interest pertaining to the Baker Notes for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $2.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively, which was added to the outstanding principal balance. The Company accounts for the Baker Notes under the fair value method as described below and, therefore, the interest associated with the Baker Notes is included in the fair value determination.
The Baker Notes were callable by the Company on 10 days’ written notice beginning on the third anniversary of the initial closing date of April 24, 2020 at a call price equal to 100% of the Baker Outstanding Balance plus accrued and unpaid interest if the Company’s common stock as measured using a 30-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) was greater than the benchmark price of $9,356.25 as stated in the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement, or 110% of the Baker Outstanding Balance plus accrued and unpaid interest if the VWAP was less than such benchmark price. The Baker Purchasers also had the option to require the Company to repurchase all or any portion of the Baker Notes in cash upon the occurrence of certain events. In a repurchase event, as defined in the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement, the repurchase price will equal 110% of the Baker Outstanding Balance plus accrued and unpaid interest. In the event of default or the Company’s change of control, the repurchase price would equal to the sum of (x) three times of the Baker Outstanding Balance plus (y) the aggregate value of future interest that would have accrued. The Baker Notes were convertible at any time at the option of the Baker Purchasers at the conversion price of $4,575 per share prior to the First and Second Baker Amendments (as defined below).
On November 20, 2021, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement (the First Baker Amendment), in which each Baker Purchaser had the right to convert all or any portion of the Baker Notes into common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (a) $4,575 and (b) 115% of the lowest price per share of common stock (or, as applicable with respect to any equity securities convertible into common stock, 115% of the applicable conversion price) sold in one or more equity financings until the Company has met a qualified financing threshold defined as one or more equity financings resulting in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of at least $50 million (the Financing Threshold).
The First Baker Amendment extended, effective upon the Company’s achievement of the Financing Threshold, the affirmative covenant to achieve $100.0 million in cumulative net sales of PHEXXI by June 30, 2022 to June 30, 2023. Additionally per the First Baker Amendment, if the Company were to issue warrants to purchase capital stock of the Company (or other similar consideration) in any equity financing that closed on or prior to the date on which the Company met the Financing Threshold, the Company was required to issue to the Baker Purchasers an equivalent coverage of warrants (or other similar consideration) on the same terms as if the Baker Purchasers had participated in the financing in an amount equal to the then outstanding principal of Baker Notes held by the Baker Purchasers. In satisfaction of this requirement and in connection with the closing of the May 2022 Public Offering, the Company issued warrants to purchase 582,886shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $93.75 per share to the Baker Purchasers (the June 2022 Baker Warrants). As required by the terms of the First Baker Amendment, the June 2022 Baker Warrants have substantially the same terms as the warrants issued in the May 2022 Public Offering. Refer to Note 8 – Convertible and Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficitfor further information. The exercise price of the initial Baker Warrants and the June 2022 Baker Warrants was reset multiple times as a result of various Notes issuances in accordance with the agreement. The exercise price was $0.0154 per share as of March 31, 2025.
On March 21, 2022, the Company entered into the second amendment to the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement (the Second Baker Amendment), which granted each Baker Purchaser the right to convert all or any portion of the Baker Notes into common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (a) $725.81 or (b) 100% of the lowest price per share of common stock (or as applicable with respect to any equity securities convertible into common stock, 100% of the applicable conversion price) sold in any equity financing until the Company (i) met the qualified financing threshold by June 30, 2022, defined as a single underwritten financing resulting in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of at least $20 million (Qualified Financing Threshold) and (ii) disclosed top-line results from the EVOGUARD clinical trial (the Clinical Trial Milestone) on or before October 31, 2022. The Second Baker Amendment also provided that the exercise price of the Baker Warrants will equal the conversion price of the Baker Notes. The Company met the Qualified Financing Threshold upon the closing of the May 2022 Public Offering, and as of September 30, 2022, the conversion price and exercise price of the Baker Warrants was reset to $93.75. The Company achieved the Clinical Trial Milestone in October 2022. Also, with the achievement of the Qualified Financing Threshold and the Clinical Trial Milestone, the affirmative covenant to achieve $100.0 million in cumulative net sales of PHEXXI was extended to June 30, 2023, which was subsequently waived via the Baker Fourth Amendment as discussed below.
On September 15, 2022, the Company entered into the third amendment to the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement (the Third Baker Amendment), pursuant to which the conversion price was amended to $26.25, subject to adjustment for certain dilutive Company equity issuance adjustments for a two-year2 period; an interest make-whole payment due in certain circumstances was removed; and certain change of control and liquidation payment amounts were reduced from three times the outstanding amounts of the Baker Notes to two times the outstanding amounts. In addition, the Third Baker Amendment provided that the Company may make future interest payments to the Baker Purchasers in kind or in cash, at the Company’s option. On the same day, the Company also entered into a Secured Creditor Forbearance Agreement with the Baker Purchasers (Forbearance Agreement), according to which the Baker Purchasers agreed to forebear the defaults that existed at that time.
On December 19, 2022, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Forbearance Agreement (the Amendment) effective as of December 15, 2022 to amend certain provisions of the Forbearance Agreement dated September 15, 2022. The Amendment revised the Forbearance Agreement to (i) amend the Fifth Recital Clause to clarify that the Purchasers consent to any additional indebtedness pari passu, but not senior to that of the Purchasers, in an amount not to exceed $5.0 million, and (ii) strike and entirely replace Section 4 to clarify the terms of the Purchasers’ consent to Interim Financing (as defined therein). No other revisions were made to the Forbearance Agreement.
On March 7, 2023, Baker Bros. Advisors, LP (the Designated Agent) provided a Notice of Event of Default and Reservation of Rights (the Notice of Default) relating to the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement. The Notice of Default claimed that the Company failed to maintain the “Required Reserve Amount” as required by the Third Baker Amendment. The Designated Agent, at the direction of the Baker Purchasers, accelerated repayment of the outstanding balance payable. As a result, approximately $92.7 million, representing two times the sum of the outstanding balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts due under the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement and other documents, was due and payable within three business days of receipt of the Notice of Default. In addition, the Company did not meet the $100.0million cumulative net sales threshold by June 30, 2023 and as such was in default as of that date. As discussed below, all existing defaults were cured upon the signing of the Fourth Baker Amendment.
On September 8, 2023, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement (the Fourth Baker Amendment) with the Baker Purchasers. The Fourth Amendment amends certain provisions within the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement including:
The outstanding balance of the Baker Notes will continue to accrue interest at 10% per annum and, in the event of a default in the agreement or a failure to pay the Repurchase Price (as defined below) on or before September 8, 2028 (the Maturity Date), the Baker Purchasers may collect on the full principal amount then outstanding.
The Company paid the required $1.0 million upfront payment in September 2023 and is required to make quarterly cash payments based upon a percentage of the Company’s global net product revenue. The cash payments will be determined based upon the quarterly global net revenue of PHEXXI according to the table below.
Schedule of Cash payments Determined based Upon the Quarterly Global Net Revenue
The quarterly cash payments were payable beginning in the fourth quarter of 2023 and have been timely paid.
Regardless of the percentage paid, the quarterly cash payment amounts, along with the $1.0 million upfront payment, will be deducted from the Repurchase Price as Applicable Reductions. Quarterly cash payments that will be treated as Applicable Reductions paid to date as of March 31, 2025, amount to $0.7 million.
The Fourth Amendment also granted the Company the ability to repurchase the principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest of the Baker Notes for up to a five-year period for the one-time Repurchase Price designated below:
Schedule of Repurchase Price Reduction
The Company evaluated whether any of the Embedded Features required bifurcation as a separate component. The Company elected the fair value option (FVO) under ASC 825, Financial Instruments (ASC 825), as the Baker Notes are qualified financial instruments and are, in whole, classified as liabilities. Under the FVO, the Company recognized the debt instrument at fair value, inclusive of the Embedded Features, with changes in fair value related to changes in the Company’s credit risk being recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. All other changes in fair value were recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
As part of the consideration for the Merger, on December 11, 2023, the Baker Purchasers signed an agreement to assign the Baker Notes to Aditxt (the December Assignment Agreement). Upon execution of the December Assignment Agreement, Aditxt assumed all terms under the Baker Notes, with Aditxt becoming the new senior secured debtholder of the Company, governed by the requirements under the Fourth Baker Amendment. The Baker Notes were re-assigned back to the Baker Purchasers on February 26, 2024 (the February Assignment Agreement).
Due to the execution of the February Assignment Agreement, the Company reviewed the Baker Notes in accordance with ASC 470. The Baker Notes, having been effectively terminated, were extinguished on February 26, 2024, resulting in removing the fair value of the old Baker Notes of $13.5 million. The newly re-assigned Baker Notes were subsequently recorded at fair value using the valuation methods discussed inNote 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
On July 23, 2024, the Company consented to the transfer of ownership of the Baker Notes from Baker Brothers Life Sciences, 667, L.P., and Baker Bros. Advisors, LP, each a Delaware limited partnership (collectively, Baker) to Future Pak, LLC (the Assignee) (the July 2024 Assignment). The terms of the Baker Notes were not changed in connection with the assignment from Baker to the Assignee. Due to the July 2024 Assignment, the Company reviewed the Baker Notes in accordance with ASC 470. The Baker Notes, having been effectively terminated, were extinguished on July 23, 2024, resulting in removing the fair value of the old Baker Notes of $12.3million and the related accumulated other comprehensive income of $0.1million as of the date of the extinguishment. The newly re-assigned Baker Notes were subsequently recorded at fair value using the valuation methods discussed in Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
The Company did not repurchase the Baker Notes prior to September 8, 2024. As of March 31, 2025, the Baker Notes are recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as short-term Notes – carried at fair value with a total fair value of $13.8million, and the total outstanding balance including principal and accrued interest is $112.2million. As of December 31, 2024, the Baker Notes were recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as short-term convertible notes payable with a total balance of $13.8 million, and the total outstanding balance including principal and accrued interest was $109.5 million.
On September 27, 2024, the Assignee, as agent for the Purchasers (in such capacity, the Designated Agent), provided a Notice of Event of Default and Reservation of Rights (the September 2024 Notice of Default) relating to the Securities Purchase and Security Agreement dated April 23, 2020, as amended, by and among the Company, Designated Agent, as certain guarantors and the purchasers (each a Purchaser and collectively Purchasers). The September 2024 Notice of Default claims that by entering into arrangements to pay certain existing obligations, including obligations owed to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, an Event of Default has occurred under Section 9.1(e) of the SPA.
According to the Notice of Default, the Designated Agent has accelerated repayment of the outstanding principal balance owed by the Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement. If all Purchasers exercise the Section 5.7 Option (as defined below), the repurchase price would be equal to the total outstanding balance, including principal and accrued interest. Pursuant to Section 5.7(b) of the SPA, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Purchaser may elect, at its option, to require the Company to repurchase the Note held by such Purchaser (or any portion thereof) at a repurchase price equal to two times the sum of the outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, due within three business days after such Purchaser delivers a notice of such election (the Section 5.7 Option).
On October 27, 2024, the Designated Agent sent an amended and supplemental notice to the Initial Notice of Default (the Amended Notice of Default) which adds new claims of default based on the Company’s current payment agreements of existing obligations, including obligations owed to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, an Event of Default has occurred under Section 9.1(e) of the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement, as amended. Furthermore, the Amended Notice stated that, because the events of default described in the Amended Notice of Default are not the certain prior events of default listed in the Forbearance Agreement (Specified Defaults), the Designated Agent and the holders of the senior secured promissory notes described in the SPA thereby provided notice to the Company that the Forbearance Agreement is terminated as of October 27, 2024.
On November 8, 2024, the Designated Agent sent an amended and supplemental notice to the Notices (the Third Amended Notice of Default) which adds new claims of default based on (i) the Company’s failure to maintain a cash position of $1.0 million or greater, as required under Section 5(b) of the Forbearance Agreement (ii) the Company’s failure to deliver financial and operating reports in accordance with the timeline required under the Section 8.1(n) of the Baker Stock Purchase Agreement, and (iii) to clarify the outstanding balance under the notes of the Baker Stock Purchase Agreement plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in the sum of approximately is $107.0 million as opposed to the Repurchase Price as defined in the Fourth Amendment.
The Company strongly disagrees with the Designated Agent’s claim that an Event of Default has occurred. The Company intends to vigorously contest any attempt by the Designated Agent and the Purchasers to exercise their default rights and remedies under the SPA.
Adjuvant Notes
On October 14, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the Adjuvant Purchase Agreement) with Adjuvant Global Health Technology Fund, L.P., and Adjuvant Global Health Technology Fund DE, L.P. (together, the Adjuvant Purchasers), pursuant to which the Company sold unsecured convertible promissory notes (the Adjuvant Notes) in aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million.
The Adjuvant Notes have a five-year5 term, and in connection with certain Company change of control transactions, the Adjuvant Notes may be prepaid at the option of the Company or will become payable on the date of the consummation of a change of control transaction at the option of the Adjuvant Purchasers. The Adjuvant Notes have interest accruing at 7.5% per annum on a quarterly basis in arrears to the outstanding balance of the Adjuvant Notes and are recognized as payment-in-kind. The effective interest rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was 7.5%.
Interest expense for the Adjuvant Notes consists of the following, and is included in short-term convertible notes – Adjuvant on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 and in other expense, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):
Schedule of Interest Expense
The Adjuvant Notes are convertible, subject to customary 4.99% and 19.99% beneficial ownership limitations, into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at any time at the option of the Adjuvant Purchasers at a conversion price of $6,843.75 per share. In connection with certain Company change of control transactions, the Adjuvant Notes may be prepaid at the option of the Company or will become payable at the option of the Adjuvant Purchasers. To the extent not previously prepaid or converted, the Adjuvant Notes were originally automatically convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $6,843.75 per share immediately following the earliest of the time at which the (i) 30-day value-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock was $18,750 per share, or (ii) the Company achieved cumulative net sales of $100.0 million, provided such net sales were achieved prior to July 1, 2022.
On April 4, 2022, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Adjuvant Purchase Agreement (the Adjuvant Amendment). The Adjuvant Amendment extended the affirmative covenant to achieve $100.0 million in cumulative net sales of PHEXXI by June 30, 2022 to June 30, 2023. The Adjuvant Amendment also provided for an adjustment to the conversion price of the Adjuvant Notes such that the conversion price (the Conversion Price) for these Notes, effective as of the May 2023 reverse stock split, will now be the lesser of (i) $678.49 and (ii)100% of the lowest price per share of common stock (or with respect to securities convertible into common stock, 100% of the applicable conversion price) sold in any equity financing until the Company met the Qualified Financing Threshold. Effective as of the Company’s achievement of the Qualified Financing Threshold, the automatic conversion provisions in the Agreement were further amended to provide that the Adjuvant Notes will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s common stock at the Conversion Price immediately following the earliest of the time at which the (i) 30-day value-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock is $18,750per share, or (ii) the Company achieves cumulative net sales of PHEXXI of $100.0 million, provided such net sales were achieved prior to July 1, 2023.
The Adjuvant Notes contain various customary affirmative and negative covenants agreed to by the Company. On September 12, 2022, the Company was in default of the Adjuvant Notes due to the default with the Baker Notes under the cross-default provision. On September 15, 2022, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the Adjuvant Forbearance Agreement) with the Adjuvant Purchasers, pursuant to which the Adjuvant Purchasers agreed to forbear from exercising any of their rights and remedies during the Forbearance Period as defined in therein, but solely with respect to the specified events of default provided under the Adjuvant Forbearance Agreement.
On September 15, 2022, the Company also entered into the second amendment to the Adjuvant Purchase Agreement (the Second Adjuvant Amendment), pursuant to which the conversion price per share was reduced to $26.25, subject to adjustment for certain dilutive Company equity issuance adjustments for a two-year period. In addition, the Company entered into an exchange agreement, pursuant to which the Adjuvant Purchasers agreed to exchange 10% of the outstanding amount of the Adjuvant Notes as of September 15, 2022 (or $2.9 million) for rights to receive109,842 shares of common stock (the Adjuvant Purchase Rights). The number of shares for each Adjuvant Purchase Right was initially fixed, but is subject to certain customary adjustments, and, until the second anniversary of issuance (i.e., October 14, 2022), adjustments for certain dilutive Company equity issuances. Refer to Note 8 – Convertible and Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficit for discussion regarding additional issuances of purchase rights under this provision. The Adjuvant Purchase Rights expire on June 28, 2027 and do not have an exercise price per share and, therefore, will not result in cash proceeds to the Company. As of March 31, 2025, all Adjuvant Purchase Rights remain outstanding. The conversion price of the Adjuvant Notes was $0.0154 as of March 31, 2025. Assuming this conversion price per share, the Adjuvant Notes could be converted into 2,035,422,831 shares of common stock.
The Adjuvant Notes are accounted for in accordance with authoritative guidance for convertible debt instruments and are classified as current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The aggregate proceeds of $25.0million were initially classified as restricted cash for financial reporting purposes due to contractual stipulations that specify the types of expenses the money can be spent on and how it must be allocated. The conversion feature was evaluated and is classified as part of stockholders’ deficit in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815) as of March 31, 2025. See Note 6 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for a description of the accounting treatment for the Adjuvant Purchase Rights.
The Company was in default of the Adjuvant Notes as of September 30, 2023, due to the failure to meet the cumulative net sales requirement. However, Adjuvant forbore such default in October 2023 and therefore the Company is no longer in default.
As of March 31, 2025, the Adjuvant Notes are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as short-term convertible notes – Adjuvant with a total balance of $31.3 million. The balance is comprised of $22.5 million in principal, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, and $8.8 million in accrued interest. As of December 31, 2024, the Adjuvant Notes were recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as short-term convertible notes – Adjuvant with a total balance of $30.8 million. The balance was comprised of $22.5 million in principal, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, and $8.3 million in accrued interest.
Term Notes
December 2022 and February, March, April, July, August, and September 2023 Notes (SSNs)
The Company entered into eight Securities Purchase Agreements (SPAs) between December 2022 and September 2023 with certain investors. Each of the agreements was materially similar. The variable details of each SPA, such as the principal amount of each note offering, net proceeds, and maturity date, are outlined in the table below. Pursuant to each SPA, the Company agreed to sell in a registered direct offering (i) unsecured 8.0% senior subordinated notes with the maturity dates and aggregate issue prices (ii) warrants to purchase the listed number of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (including prefunded common stock Warrants as a part of the September 2023 SPA) and (iii) Series D Preferred Stock (the Preferred Shares; December 2022 SPA only) (collectively, the Senior Subordinated Notes, or SSNs). The SSNs had net proceeds to the Company, and are convertible at, the amounts listed below. Assuming the applicable conversion price per share, the SSNs could be converted into 638,093,561 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2025.
The SSNs’ interest rates are subject to increase to 12% upon an event of default and the SSNs have no Company right to prepayment prior to maturity; however, the Company has the option to redeem the respective SSNs at a redemption premium of 32.5%. The Purchasers can also require the Company to redeem their respective SSNs a) at the respective premium rate tied to the occurrence of certain subsequent transactions, and b) in the event of subsequent placements (as defined). Also, pursuant to the terms of the SPAs, Purchasers have certain rights to participate in subsequent issuances of the Company’s securities, subject to certain exceptions. Additionally, the conversion rate and warrant strike price are subject to adjustment upon the issuance of other securities (as defined) below the stated conversion rate and strike price at issuance. The strike prices adjusted as discussed in the table below.
The Company evaluated the SSNs in accordance with ASC 480 and determined that the SSNs were all liability instruments at issuance. The applicable SSNs were then evaluated in accordance with the requirements of ASC 825 and the Company concluded that they were not precluded from electing the fair value option for the applicable SSNs.
The Company also evaluated the Warrants in accordance with ASC 480 and as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the warrants are recorded in equity.
On December 21, 2023, warrants to purchase up to 9,972,074 shares of the Company’s common stock were exchanged for 613 shares of the Company’s series F-1 convertible and redeemable preferred stock (Series F-1 Shares, as defined below). The Series F-1 Shares, some of which were also issued based on the partial value of certain purchase rights, as described above, were immediately exchanged for Aditxt series A-1 preferred stock; 26,280 Series F-1 Shares were outstanding as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and held by Aditxt.

Valuation Methodology
Baker Notes
The fair value of the Baker Notes is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation-based model. The Monte Carlo simulation was used to take into account several embedded features and factors, including the exercise of the repurchase rights, the Company’s future revenues, meeting certain debt covenants, the maturity term of the note and dissolution. For the dissolution scenario, the cost approach, an adjusted net asset value method was used to determine the net recoverable value of the Company, including an estimate of the fair value of the Company’s intellectual property. The estimated fair value of the Company’s intellectual property was valued using a relief from royalty method which required management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenue, and the selection of the royalty (5.0%) and discount (15.0%) rates.
The fair value of the Baker Notes is subject to uncertainty due to the assumptions that are used in the Monte Carlo simulation-based model. These factors include but are not limited to the Company’s future revenue, the probability and timing of the exercise of the repurchase right, and expectations regarding potential dissolution. The fair value of the Baker Notes is sensitive to these estimated inputs made by management that are used in the calculation.
SSNs
The fair value of the SSNs issued as described in Note 4 – Debt, were determined by estimating the fair value of the MVIC of the Company on a going-concern basis. This was estimated using forms of the cost and market approaches. In the cost approach, an adjusted net asset value method was used to determine the net recoverable value of the Company, including an estimate of the fair value of the Company’s intellectual property. The estimated fair value of the Company’s intellectual property was valued using a relief from royalty method which required management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenue, and the selection of the royalty and discount rates. The guideline public company method served as another valuation indicator. In this form of the market approach, comparable market revenue multiples were selected and applied to the Company’s forward revenue forecast to ultimately derive a MVIC indication. An option-pricing model (OPM) was then applied to value the SSNs by allocating the estimated MVIC through the Company’s capital structure including the more senior notes payoff in a hypothetical exit event. Under the OPM, each debt or equity class is modeled as a call option with a distinct claim on the total value of the Company. The option’s exercise price is based on the Company’s total value available for each participating security holder. By constructing a series of options in which the exercise price is set at incremental levels of value, which correspond to the value necessary for each level of equity to participate, we determined the incremental option value of each series. When multiplied by the percentage of ownership of each equity class participating under that series, the result is the incremental value allocated to each class under that series.
Purchase Rights
The Adjuvant Purchase Rights and the May Note Purchase Rights (collectively Purchase Rights) are recorded as derivative liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Purchase Rights are valued using an OPM, like a Black-Scholes Methodology, with changes in the fair value being recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The assumptions used in the OPM are considered level 3 assumptions and include, but are not limited to, the market value of invested capital, the cumulative equity value of the Company as a proxy for the exercise price and the expected term the Purchase Rights will be held prior to exercise and a risk-free interest rate.
Warrants are classified as equity and the Company re-evaluates the classification of its warrants at the close of each reporting period to determine their proper balance sheet classification. The warrants are valued using an OPM based on the applicable assumptions, which include the exercise price of the warrants, time to expiration, expected volatility of our peer group, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. The assumptions used in the OPM are considered level 3 assumptions and include, but are not limited to, the market value of invested capital, the cumulative equity value of the Company as a proxy for the exercise price, the expected term the warrants will be held prior to exercise, a risk-free interest rate, and probability of change of control event. Additionally, because the warrants are re-priced under certain provisions in the agreements, at each re-pricing event the Company must value the warrants using a Black-Scholes model immediately prior to and immediately following the re-pricing event. The incremental fair value is recorded as an increase to accumulated deficit and additional paid-in-capital, in accordance with ASC 470.
SOLOSEC Asset Acquisition Intangible Asset and Contingent Liabilities
The total consideration for the SOLOSEC asset acquisition included an up-front payment (paid at closing), sales-based payments to be paid over the next 15 years (the Earnout Term) in each year in which SOLOSEC adjusted net revenue is over a specified threshold, a $10.0 million one-time payment once the cumulative SOLOSEC adjusted net revenues reach $100 million, and assumption of quarterly royalty payments based on SOLOSEC net revenue. As discussed in Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies, the fair value of the consideration is attributed to the SOLOSEC product line and was therefore recorded as an intangible asset.
The fair value of the total consideration, including cash paid and future sales-based payments, is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which assumes the Company’s revenue follows a geometric Brownian motion. Using specific revenue factors, including expected growth, risk adjustments, and revenue volatility, future revenues were simulated through the Earnout Term to assess whether sales-based payments would be triggered in each relevant period, as stipulated by the SOLOSEC Asset Purchase Agreement. The average output of the Monte Carlo simulations for each period provides the expected payment value, which is then discounted to its present value to derive the fair value of future sales-based payments and recorded as contingent liabilities. The discount rate is based on (i) the risk-free rate, plus (ii) a credit spread reflecting the Company’s interest-bearing debt, (iii) an additional spread to account for credit migration as of the valuation date, and (iv) a further incremental spread to reflect that the contingent liabilities is subordinated obligations relative to the Company’s other debt obligations.
The fair value of the SOLOSEC contingent liabilities is subject to uncertainty due to the assumptions made by management that are used in the Monte Carlo simulation-based model. These factors include the estimated future SOLOSEC net revenue, the risk-neutral revenue calculation and simulation assumptions, payment timing, and the discount rate.
The fair value of the SOLOSEC contingent liabilities will be updated at each reporting period using the methodology described above. Any changes to the fair value will be recorded as an adjustment to the carrying value of both the contingent liabilities and the SOLOSEC IP intangible asset as per ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (ASC 323). Periodic intangible amortization will also be prospectively updated based on the new fair value of the SOLOSEC IP.
7.Commitments and Contingencies
SOLOSEC
The Company reviewed the SOLOSEC acquisition in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (ASC 805), including applying the screen test. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company engaged a third-party valuation specialist to estimate the fair value for the SOLOSEC IP as well as for the total consideration. Per the valuation, the fair value of the SOLOSEC IP exceeded 90% of the total consideration, which indicates that the screen test failed. Further, the Company did not acquire any substantive processes, which indicates that the acquisition is an asset acquisition rather than a business combination. The Company recorded the fair value of the future sales-based payments as contingent liabilities in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies (ASC 450) and the fair value of the total consideration plus the transaction costs as an intangible asset in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles (ASC 350).
Per the Transition Services Agreement (TSA) entered into in conjunction with the SOLOSEC asset acquisition, the Company is committed to purchasing finished goods inventory from the seller through a transition period ending in November 2026 at a pre-defined unit price. The total expected commitment is approximately $3.5million; however, the quantities purchased can be negotiated if both parties agree. The Company concluded that the inventory purchase commitment does not meet the definition of derivatives under ASC 815. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, there were approximately $0.1million in purchases under this commitment. The Company expects to purchase approximately $1.1million in the remainder of the year ended December 31, 2025, and $1.7million in the year ended December 2026 under this commitment. The TSA also requires the seller to provide transitional support services until the Company can fully establish SOLOSEC operations; the Company is obligated to pay an immaterial amount quarterly for these services.
The Company is also obligated to pay a quarterly royalty in amounts equal to a certain percentage of the SOLOSEC net revenue, beginning July 14, 2024. There are nominimum quarterly or annual royalty payment amounts. Such royalty costs were $0.1million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, $0.2million and $6.5million related to the future payments related to the SOLOSEC acquisition, including sales-based payments, one-time payment, and quarterly royalty payments, was included in contingent liabilities – current and contingent liabilities – noncurrent, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Such amounts were $0.7million and $9.7million, respectively, as of December 31, 2024.
Fleet Lease
In December 2019, the Company and Enterprise FM Trust (the Lessor) entered into a Master Equity Lease Agreement whereby the Company leases vehicles to be delivered by the Lessor from time to time with various monthly costs depending on whether the vehicles are delivered for a term of 24or 36months, commencing on each corresponding delivery date. The leased vehicles are for use by eligible employees of the Company’s commercial operations team. As of March 31, 2025, there were a total of 19 leased vehicles. The Company determined that the leased vehicles are accounted for as operating leases under ASC 842, Leases (ASC 842).
In May and June 2024, the Company extended the lease term by an additional 12 months for vehicles with initial terms of 24 months. The Company determined that such extensions are accounted for as modifications; the Company reassessed the lease classification and the incremental borrowing rate on the modification date and accounted for these modifications accordingly.

Other Contractual Commitments
In November 2019, the Company entered into a supply and manufacturing agreement with a third-party to manufacture PHEXXI, with potential to manufacture other product candidates, in accordance with all applicable current good manufacturing practice regulations. There were approximately $0.8million in purchases under the supply and manufacturing agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and nosuch purchases during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Related Party Transactions
On March 20, 2025, Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (Windtree) and the Company entered into a License and Supply Agreement, as amended on March 28, 2025 (collectively, the Windtree License and Supply Agreement), wherein Windtree agreed to become a manufacturer and supplier of PHEXXI. The Company expects the Windtree License and Supply Agreement to significantly reduce the Company’s COGS once manufacturing has begun. The Company will not have any financial obligations until submitting a binding forecast six months prior to the scheduled manufacturing date. Because Saundra Pelletier, the Company’s CEO, is also on the board of Windtree, the Company evaluated the relationship between the entities and determined that Windtree is a related party of the Company. Due to the related party nature of the entities, the Company will add additional disclosures around any transactions that occur between the companies under the Windtree License and Supply Agreement once they begin; as of the date of this Quarterly Report, no transactions have been started.
Contingencies
From time to time the Company may be involved in various lawsuits, legal proceedings, or claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. As of March 31, 2025, there were no other claims or actions pending against the Company which management believes have a probable, or a reasonably possible, probability of an unfavorable outcome other than the TherapeuticsMD dispute as described below.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company settled a portion of its trade payables with numerous vendors, which resulted in a $3.1 million reduction in trade payables and a $2.5 million reduction in accrued expenses. However, the Company may receive trade payable demand letters from its vendors that could lead to potential litigation. As of March 31, 2025, approximately 81% of the Company’s trade payables were greater than 90 days past due.
On December 14, 2020, a trademark dispute captioned TherapeuticsMD, Inc. v Evofem Biosciences, Inc., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida against the Company, alleging trademark infringement of certain trademarks owned by TherapeuticsMD under federal and state law (Case No. 9:20-cv-82296). On July 18, 2022, the Company settled the lawsuit with TherapeuticsMD, with certain requirements which were required to be performed by July 2024 (the Settlement Timeline), including changing the name of PHEXXI. The Company failed to meet the terms of the settlement agreement by the Settlement Timeline. As a result, the Company is currently working with TherapeuticsMD on resolution of this issue. In September 2024, the Company filed an application for a new name, which was approved by the FDA in April 2025. In accordance with ASC 450, the Company has accrued $0.9 million, the present value of the probable settlement amounts payable over the next several years, as a component of contingent liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company has received six letters from purported Company stockholders demanding that the Company’s board of directors take action on behalf of the Company to remedy allegations regarding the Company’s disclosures to shareholders with respect to various alleged omissions of material information in its preliminary proxy statement filed September 23, 2024 relating to the A&R Merger Agreement, as amended, and one demand made under Section 220 of the DGCL for books and records related to the transaction and disclosures in the proxy statement. The Company believes all such demands are without merit. Furthermore, on December 23, 2024, the Company announced its decision to cancel its special meeting and the withdrawal from consideration by the stockholders of the Company the proposals set forth in the aforementioned preliminary proxy statement. The Company continues to work with each of the firms representing the stockholders to resolve.
On September 27, 2024, Future Pak, LLC, as agent for the Purchasers (in such capacity, the Designated Agent) provided a Notice of Event of Default and Reservation of Rights (the Notice of Default) relating to the Securities Purchase and Security Agreement dated April 23, 2020, as amended (SPA), by and among the Company, Designated Agent, as certain guarantors and the purchasers (each a Purchaser and collectively Purchasers). The Notice of Default claims that by entering into arrangements to repay certain existing obligations, including obligations owed to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, an Event of Default has occurred under Section 9.1(e) of the SPA. According to the Notice of Default, the Designated Agent has accelerated repayment of the outstanding principal balance owed by the Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement. If all Purchasers exercise the Section 5.7 Option (as defined below), the repurchase price would be equal to $106.8 million. Pursuant to Section 5.7(b) of the SPA, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Purchaser may elect, at its option, to require the Company to repurchase the Note held by such Purchaser (or any portion thereof) at a repurchase price equal to two times the sum of the outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, due within three business days after such Purchaser delivers a notice of such election (the Section 5.7 Option).
On October 27, 2024, the Designated Agent sent an amended and supplemented notice to the Notice of Default which adds additional claims of default based on the Company’s current repayment agreements of existing obligations, including obligations owed to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, an Event of Default has occurred under Section 9.1(e) of the Securities Purchase and Security Agreement dated April 23, 2020, as amended. Furthermore, the Amended Notice stated that, because the events of default described in the Amended Notice of Default are not the certain prior events of default listed in the Forbearance Agreement (the Specified Defaults), the Designated Agent and the holders of the senior secured promissory notes described in the SPA thereby provided notice to the Company that the Forbearance Agreement is terminated as of October 27, 2024. The Company strongly disagrees with the Designated Agent’s claim that any Event of Default has occurred.
On November 8, 2024, the Designated Agent sent an amended and supplemented notice to the Notices (the Third Amended Notice of Default) which adds new claims of default based on (i) the Company’s failure to maintain a cash position of $1.0 million or greater, as required under Section 5(b) of the Forbearance Agreement (ii) the Company’s failure to deliver financial and operating reports in accordance with the timeline required under the Section 8.1(n) of the Baker Stock Purchase Agreement, and (iii) to clarify the outstanding balance under the notes of the Baker Stock Purchase Agreement plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in the sum of approximately is $107.0 million as opposed to the Repurchase Price as defined in the Fourth Amendment. The Company intends to vigorously contest any attempt by the Designated Agent and the Purchasers to exercise their default rights and remedies under the SPA.
Intellectual Property Rights
In 2014, the Company entered into an amended and restated license agreement (the Rush License Agreement) with Rush University Medical Center (Rush University) pursuant to which Rush University granted the Company an exclusive, worldwide license of certain patents and know-how related to its multipurpose vaginal pH modulator technology. For the U.S. patent that the Company licensed from Rush University, multiple Orders Granting Interim Extension (OGIEs) were received from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), extending the expiration of this patent to March 6, 2025. No further OGIEs have been received and the patent is expired. PHEXXI remains protected in the U.S. by four additional Orange Book patents which are solely-owned by Evofem.
Pursuant to the Rush License Agreement, the Company was obligated to pay Rush University an earned royalty based upon a percentage of net sales in the range of mid-single digits until the expiration of this patent. In September 2020, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Rush License Agreement, pursuant to which the Company was also obligated to pay a minimum annual royalty amount of $0.1 million to the extent the earned royalties do not equal or exceed $0.1 million commencing January 1, 2021. Due to the patent expiration, Rush University will not be entitled to any further royalties. As such, no royalty costs were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, $0.2 million of Rush royalty costs were recorded in cost of goods sold. As of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, approximately $2.0 million of Rush royalty costs were included in accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
8.Convertible and Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Deficit
In April and June 2020, pursuant to the Baker Bros. Purchase Agreement, as discussed in Note 4 – Debt, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 2,732 shares of common stock in a private placement at an exercise price of $4,575 per share. The Second Baker Amendment provides that the exercise price of the Baker Warrants will equal the conversion price of the Baker Notes. The exercise price of the Baker warrants was $0.0154 per share as of March 31, 2025.
In May 2022, the Company completed an underwritten public offering (the May 2022 Public Offering) which included the issuance of common warrants to purchase 362,640 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $93.75 and the issuance of common warrants to purchase205,360 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $93.63 (the May 2022 Common Stock Warrants). The May 2022 Common Stock Warrants were exercisable beginning on May 24, 2022 and have a five-year5 term. Due to features in the May 2022 Common Stock Warrants, including dilution adjustments requiring strike price resets, additional warrants have been periodically issued as required in the warrant agreements. As of March 31, 2025 there were 894,194 May 2022 Common Stock Warrants outstanding with an exercise price of $0.0154.
In June 2022, as required by the Second Baker Amendment, the Company issued the June 2022 Baker Warrants to purchase up to 582,886 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share. The June 2022 Baker Warrants have an exercise price of $93.75 per share and a five-year5 term and were exercisable beginning June 28, 2022. The June 2022 Baker Warrants also contain customary 4.99% and 19.99% limitations on exercise provisions. The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of the June 2022 Baker Warrants is subject to adjustment for certain dilutive issuances, stock splits and similar recapitalization transactions. The exercise price of these warrants was $0.0154 per share as of March 31, 2025.
In February, March, April, July, August, and September 2023, pursuant to the SSNs as discussed in Note 4 – Debt, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 1,152,122 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, up to 2,615,383shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share, and up to 22,189,349 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.13 per share. The exercise price of these warrants was $0.0154 per share as of March 31, 2025.
On December 21, 2023, warrants to purchase up to 9,972,074 shares of the Company’s common stock were exchanged for 613 shares of the Company’s Series F-1 Shares.
As of March 31, 2025, warrants to purchase up to 20,807,539 shares of the Company’s common stock remain outstanding at a weighted average exercise price of $2.42 per share. In accordance with ASC 815, the warrants are classified as equity instruments as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company obtained waivers from a majority of the convertible instrument holders, removing the requirement for shares to be reserved for conversion of their instruments, which will prevent the instruments from needing to be liability classified due to an insufficient number of authorized shares going forward. The Company will continue to re-evaluate the classification of its warrants at the close of each reporting period to determine the proper balance sheet classification for them. These warrants are summarized below:
Schedule of Warrants
Preferred Stock
Effective December 15, 2021, the Company amended and restated its certificate of incorporation, under which the Company is currently authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of total preferred stock, including the authorized convertible and redeemable preferred stock designated for Series B-1 and B-2, Series C, Series E-1, and Series F-1, and nonconvertible and redeemable preferred stock (Series D), par value $0.0001 per share.
Convertible and Redeemable Preferred Stock
On August 7, 2023, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Series E-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (Certificate of Designation), par value $0.0001per share (the Series E-1 Shares). An aggregate of 2,300shares was authorized. The Series E-1 Shares are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.40per share and are both counted toward quorum on the basis of and have voting rights equal to the number of shares of common stock into which the Series E-1 Shares are then convertible. The Series E-1 Shares are senior to all common stock with respect to preferences as to dividends, distributions, and payments upon a dissolution event. In the event of a liquidation event, the Series E-1 Shares are entitled to receive an amount per share equal to the Black Scholes Value as of the liquidation event plus the greater of 125% of the conversion amount (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) and the amount the holder of the Series E-1 Shares would receive if the shares were converted into common stock immediately prior to the liquidation event. If the funds available for liquidation are insufficient to pay the full amount due to the holders of the Series E-1 Shares, each holder will receive a percentage payout. The Series E-1 Shares are entitled to dividends at a rate of 10% per annum or 12% upon a triggering event. On the 18-month anniversary of the initial issuance date for the Series E-1 convertible preferred stock, the dividend rate shall further increase by 30% on the first calendar day of each calendar quarter thereafter until no E-1 Shares remain outstanding. Dividends are payable in shares of common stock and may, at the Company’s election, be capitalized and added to the principal monthly. The Series E-1 Shares also have a provision that allows them to be converted to common stock at a conversion rate equal to the Alternate Conversion Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) times the number of shares subject to conversion times the 25% redemption premium in the event of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) such as in a liquidation event. The Series E-1 Shares are mandatorily redeemable in the event of bankruptcy. Series E-1 Shares rank higher than all shares of the Company’s common stock and Series F-1 Shares (defined below) with respect to the preferences as to dividends and any distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution, and winding up of the Company.
On August 7, 2023, certain investors party to the December 2022 Notes and the February 2023 Notes exchanged $1.8 million total in principal and accrued interest under the outstanding convertible promissory notes for 1,800 shares of Series E-1 Shares (the August 2023 Preferred Stock Transaction). Per the Series E-1 Convertible Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation, the conversion rate can also be adjusted in several future circumstances, such as on certain dates after the exchange date and upon the issuance of additional convertible securities with a lower conversion rate or in the instance of a Triggering Event. As such, the conversion price has been adjusted several times and is $0.0154as of March 31, 2025. The Series E-1 Shares are classified as mezzanine equity within the condensed consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 480 because of a fixed 25% redemption premium upon a Triggering Event and no mandatory redemption feature. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, an immaterial deemed dividend was recorded in each period as an increase to the number of Series E-1 Shares outstanding.
On December 11, 2023, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Series F-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (F-1 Certificate of Designation), par value $0.0001 per share (the Series F-1 Shares). An aggregate of 95,000 shares was authorized. The Series F-1 Shares are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.0635 per share and do not have the right to vote on any matters presented to the holders of the Company’s common stock. The Series F-1 Shares are senior to all common stock and subordinate to the Series E-1 Shares with respect to preferences as to distributions and payments upon a dissolution event. In the event of a liquidation event, the Series F-1 Shares are entitled to receive an amount per share equal to the Black Scholes Value as of the liquidation event plus the greater of 125% of the conversion amount (as defined in the F-1 Certificate of Designation) and the amount the holder of the Series F-1 Shares would receive if the shares were converted into common stock immediately prior to the liquidation event. If the funds available for liquidation are insufficient to pay the full amount due to the holders of the Series F-1 Shares, each holder will receive a percentage payout. The Series F-1 Shares are not entitled to dividends. The Series F-1 Shares also have a provision that allows them to be converted to common stock at a conversion rate equal to the Alternate Conversion Price (as defined in the F-1 Certificate of Designation) times the number of shares subject to conversion times the 25% redemption premium in the event of a Triggering Event (as defined in the F-1 Certificate of Designation) such as in a liquidation event. The Series F-1 Shares are mandatorily redeemable in the event of bankruptcy. In June 2024, the Required Holders, as defined in the F-1 Certificate of Designation, approved an amended and restated certificate of designation (the Amended F-1 Certificate of Designation) to the Company’s certificate of designation designating the rights, preferences, and limitations of the Company’s Series F-1 Shares. Series F-1 Shares rank higher than all shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to the preferences as to dividends and any distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution, and winding up of the Company. The Amended F-1 Certificate of Designation provides for the removal of the conversion price adjustment provisions previously included and changed the conversion price to $0.0154.
On December 21, 2023, the Company issued a total of 22,280 Series F-1 Shares to certain investors, including 613 shares exchanged for warrants to purchase up to 9,972,074 shares of the Company’s common stock and 21,667 shares to exchange a partial value of the outstanding purchase rights. The holders of the Series F-1 Shares immediately exchanged their Series F-1 Shares to Aditxt’s Series A-1 preferred stock, and as a result, Aditxt currently holds the Company’s Series F-1 Shares.
During the second half of 2024, as part of the funding requirement by Aditxt pursuant to the A&R Merger Agreement, the Company issued a total of 4,000Series F-1 Shares to Aditxt for an aggregate purchase price of $4.0million. Additionally, Aditxt also paid the Company $1.0million in May 2024 in conjunction with signing the Reinstatement and Fourth Amendment to the Merger Agreement. The 4,000Series F-1 Shares were recorded at fair value with the variance between the immaterial fair value and the total $5.0 million cash received being recorded as additional paid-in-capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Common Stock
Effective September 14, 2023, the Company further amended its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock to 3,000,000,000 shares.
On September 15, 2022, the Company entered into certain exchange agreements with the Adjuvant Purchasers and the May 2022 Notes Purchasers to exchange, upon request, the Purchase Rights for an aggregate of 942,080 shares of the Company’s common stock. The number of right shares for each Purchase Right is initially fixed at issuance, but subject to certain customary adjustments for certain dilutive Company equity issuances until the second anniversary of issuance. These Purchase Rights expire on June 28, 2027. Refer to Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments for the accounting treatment of the Purchase Rights. In 2023, the Company subsequently signed an additional agreement with the holders of the Purchase Rights upon which the total aggregate value of the Purchase Rights is fixed at $24.7 million, to be paid in a variable number of shares based on the current exercise price. On December 21, 2023, the Company issued21,667 shares of the Series F-1 Shares in exchange for a partial value of certain purchase rights, as described above.
In connection with the SSNs issuances, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company increased the number of outstanding Purchase Rights by 1,145,333,158, due to the reset of their exercise price. This was recorded as a loss on issuance of financial instruments in the amount of $3.3 million in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. No such exercise price reset occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The exercise price will be further adjusted if any other convertible instruments have price resets. In addition, the Company issued 17,725,000 shares of common stock upon the exercise of certain Purchase Rights during the three months ended March 31, 2024; no exercises were completed in the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, Purchase Rights of 1,519,148,899 shares of the Company’s common stock remained outstanding.

Pharma 1 Licensing Agreement Amendment
On May 3, 2025, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Development and Supply Agreement with Pharma 1 in order to add an additional 3-applicator package size of PHEXXI to be sold by Pharma 1.
OTC Markets Compliance
On April 22, 2025, the Company received a written notice from the OTC Markets that it did not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the specified period, and therefore its common stock was removed from OTCQB and began trading on the OTC Pink Current (OTCPK) at market open on April 23, 2025.
Aditxt
On April 8, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (Aditxt SPA) with Aditxt providing for the sale and issuance of senior subordinated convertible notes due in the aggregate original principal amount of $2.3million (the Aditxt Notes) and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 149,850,150shares (the Aditxt Warrants) of common stock the Company, par value $0.0001 (collectively, the Aditxt Offering).
The Aditxt Offering partially closed on April 8, 2025 (the Initial Closing Date) and, as a result, the Company issued Aditxt Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1.2 million and Aditxt Warrants to purchase 74,925,075 shares of Common Stock. Aditxt paid approximately $650 for each $1,000 of the principal amount of Notes and Warrants. After offering costs, net proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $0.8 million. The Company waived Aditxt’s default due to the full Fifth Parent Investment not being made by the deadline of April 7, 2025, as set forth in the Fifth Amendment. As part of the waiver, the second half of the Aditxt Offering must be funded no later than April 16, 2025 or Aditxt will be in default and the Company will have the ability to terminate the Merger. The Company received the second half of the funds on April 22, 2025.
On April 10, 2025, Aditxt, the Company and Adjuvant Global Health Technology Fund, L.P. and Adjuvant Global Fund DE, L.P. (collectively, Adjuvant) entered into a Call Option Agreement wherein Adjuvant granted to Aditxt a call option to purchase, at the sole discretion of Aditxt, all of the convertible Adjuvant Notes and Rights to receive Common Stock (the Securities) held by Adjuvant for an aggregate purchase price of $13.0million. The call option can be exercised at any time after the satisfaction in full of the repayment obligations under the Company’s Baker Notes and until June 30, 2025. Further, if Aditxt does not satisfy its obligations to the Company’s senior secured creditor by May 31, 2025, Adjuvant is free to transfer the Securities to another purchaser and the Call Option Agreement shall be extinguished and terminate.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Evofem” or the “Company” refer collectively to Evofem Biosciences, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated. All information presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report) is based on our fiscal year. Unless otherwise stated, references to particular years, quarters, months or periods refer to our fiscal years ending December 31 and the associated quarters, months and periods of those fiscal years.
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis is set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of this Quarterly Report, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.
Overview
We are a San Diego-based commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company with a strong focus on innovation in women’s health. We currently commercialize two FDA-approved products: PHEXXI® (lactic acid, citric acid and potassium bitartrate) vaginal gel and SOLOSEC®(secnidazole) 2 g oral granules.
Approved by the FDA on May 22, 2020, PHEXXI is the first and only non-hormonal prescription contraceptive gel. It is locally acting, with no systemic activity, and used on-demand by women only when they have sex. Because PHEXXI is a non-hormonal contraceptive, it is not associated with side effects of exogenous hormone use like depression, weight gain, headaches, loss of libido, mood swings and irritability. Taking hormones may not be right for some women, especially those with certain medical conditions, including clotting disorders hormone-sensitive cancer, diabetes, or a BMI over 30, or those who are breast feeding or who smoke. Per the National Center for Heath Statistics (NCHS), more than 23.3 million women in the U.S. will not use a hormonal contraceptive.
Evofem has delivered PHEXXI net sales growth in each consecutive year since it was launched in September 2020. Key growth drivers for 2025 include social media campaigns, participation in strategic medical conferences, and initiatives to expand use of PHEXXI in women who take oral birth control pills in conjunction with GLP-1 prescription medications like Ozempic, Mounjaro and Zepbound for weight loss. These drugs may make oral birth control pills less effective at certain points in the dosing schedule. Per the USPI, prescribers are instructed to “advise patients using oral contraceptives to switch to a non-oral contraceptive method or add a barrier method” to prevent unintended pregnancy during these times.
In July 2024 we acquired global rights to SOLOSEC. This FDA-approved single-dose oral antimicrobial agent provides a complete course of therapy for the treatment of two common sexual health infections – bacterial vaginosis (BV) and trichomoniasis. The SOLOSEC acquisition aligns with and advances our mission to improve access to innovative and differentiated options that impact women’s daily lives. We expect commercialization of SOLOSEC will benefit from our commercial infrastructure and strong physician relationships.
We intend to expand the global reach of our products and further increase our global potential through ex-U.S. partnerships or licensing agreements for PHEXXI and SOLOSEC.
We licensed exclusive commercial rights in the Middle East to Pharma 1 Drug Store, an emerging Emirati health care company, for PHEXXI on July 17, 2024, as amended on May 3, 2025. Under this agreement, the licensed territory includes the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and certain other countries in the region. Pharma 1 is responsible for obtaining and maintaining any regulatory approvals required to market and sell PHEXXI, and will handle all aspects of distribution, sales and marketing, pharmacovigilance and all other commercial functions in these countries. Evofem will supply product to Pharma 1 at cost-plus. Pharma 1 is on track to file for regulatory approval of PHEXXI in the UAE in the second quarter of 2025.
Additionally, PHEXXI was approved in Nigeria on October 6, 2022, as Femidence™ by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control. PHEXXI has also been submitted for approval in Mexico, Ethiopia and Ghana.
We halted clinical development of our investigational product candidates in October 2022 to focus resources on growing domestic sales of PHEXXI for the prevention of pregnancy.
Recent Developments
Aditxt Note and Warrant Issuance
On April 8, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (Aditxt SPA) with Aditxt providing for the sale and issuance of senior subordinated convertible notes due in the aggregate original principal amount of $2.3 million (the Aditxt Notes) and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 149,850,150 shares (the Aditxt Warrants) of common stock the Company, par value $0.0001 (collectively, the Aditxt Offering).
The Aditxt Offering closed on April 8, 2025 and, as a result, the Company issued Aditxt Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $2.3 million and Aditxt Warrants to purchase 149,850,150 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.0154. Aditxt paid approximately $650 for each $1,000 of the principal amount of Notes and Warrants. The net proceeds after the offering costs to the Company from the Aditxt Offering were approximately $1.5 million. The Company waived Aditxt’s default under the terms of the A&R Merger Agreement due to the full Fifth Parent Investment not being made by the deadline set forth in the Fifth Amendment.
Adjuvant Notes Call Option
On April 10, 2025, Aditxt, the Company and Adjuvant Global Health Technology Fund, L.P. and Adjuvant Global Fund DE, L.P. (collectively, Adjuvant) entered into a Call Option Agreement wherein Adjuvant granted to Aditxt, a call option to purchase, at the sole discretion of Aditxt, all of the convertible Adjuvant Notes and Rights to receive common stock (the Securities) held by Adjuvant for an aggregate purchase price of $13.0 million. The call option can be exercised at any time after the satisfaction in full of the repayment obligations under the Company’s Baker Notes and until June 30, 2025. If the obligations under the Company’s senior secured creditor are not satisfied by May 31, 2025, Adjuvant is free to transfer the Securities to another purchaser and the Call Option Agreement shall be extinguished and terminate.
Aditxt Merger
On December 11, 2023, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended, (the Merger Agreement) with Aditxt, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Aditxt), Adifem, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned Subsidiary of Aditxt (Merger Sub), pursuant to which, and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Aditxt (the Merger).
On July 12, 2024, the Company, the Merger Sub and Aditxt entered into the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, as amended (the A&R Merger Agreement). Except as described below, the terms and provisions of the A&R Merger Agreement are consistent with the terms and provision of the original Merger Agreement.
At the Effective Time of the Merger:
Further, Aditxt agreed to, on or prior to: (a) July 12, 2024, purchase 500 shares of the Company’s Series F-1 Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $0.5 million (the July Purchase) (b) August 9, 2024, purchase an additional 500 shares of F-1 Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $0.5 million (the August Purchase), (c) the earlier of August 30, 2024 or within five business days of the closing of a public offering by Aditxt resulting in aggregate net proceeds to Aditxt of no less than $20.0 million, purchase an additional 2,000 shares of F-1 Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $2.0 million (the Third Parent Equity Investment); and (d) September 30, 2024, purchase an additional 1,000 shares of F-1 Preferred Stock at an aggregate purchase price of $1.0 million (the Fourth Parent Equity Investment). The July Purchase and subsequent August Purchase of 500 shares of the Company’s Series F-1 Preferred Shares in each respective purchase were completed as scheduled.
On August 16, 2024, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub entered into the first amendment to the A&R Merger Agreement (the First Amendment), to change the funding date for the Third Parent Equity Investment Date (as defined in the A&R Merger Agreement) from August 30, 2024 to the earlier of (i) September 6, 2024 or (ii) within five (5) business days of the closing of a public offering by Parent resulting in aggregate net proceeds to Parent of no less than $20.0 million.
On September 6, 2024, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub entered into the second amendment to the A&R Merger Agreement (the Second Amendment), to (i) change the date of the Third Parent Equity Investment Date and Fourth Parent Equity Investment Date (as defined in the A&R Merger Agreement) from September 6, 2024 and September 30, 2024 to September 30, 2024 and October 31, 2024, respectively and (ii) to change the required consummation date to November 29, 2024.
On September 23, 2024, the Company filed a preliminary proxy statement with the SEC. Subject to certain exceptions, the Company’s Board of Directors will recommend that the A&R Merger Agreement be adopted by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders (the Company Board Recommendation). However, subject to the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions, the Company and the Board are permitted to take certain actions which may, as more fully described in the A&R Merger Agreement, include changing the Company Board Recommendation and entering into a definitive agreement with respect to a Company Change of Recommendation (as defined in the A&R Merger Agreement) if the Company Board or any committee thereof determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors and after taking into account relevant legal, financial, regulatory, estimated timing of consummation and other aspects of such proposal that the Company Board considers in good faith and the Person or group making such proposal, would, if consummated in accordance with its terms, result in a transaction more favorable to the Company Shareholders than the Merger. If the Company has a Company Change of Recommendation, the Company must provide Aditxt with a ten (10) calendar day written notice thereof and negotiate with Aditxt in good faith to provide a competing offer.
On October 2, 2024, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub entered into the third amendment to the A&R Merger Agreement (the Third Amendment), to (i) change the date of the Third Parent Equity Investment Date (as defined in the A&R Merger Agreement) from September 30, 2024 to October 2, 2024, (ii) change the Third Parent Equity Investment from 1,500 shares of Series F-1 Preferred Shares to 720 shares of Series F-1 Preferred Shares, and (iii) amend the Fourth Parent Equity Investment (as defined in the A&R Merger Agreement) from 1,500 shares of Series F-1 Preferred Shares to 2,280.

On November 19, 2024, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub entered into the fourth amendment to the A&R Merger Agreement (the Fourth Amendment) to change the required consummation date to January 31, 2025.
On December 23, 2024, Evofem announced the withdrawal from consideration by the stockholders of the Company the proposals set forth in its preliminary proxy statement and its decision to cancel its planned special meeting.
On March 22, 2025, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub entered into the fifth amendment to the A&R Merger Agreement (the Fifth Amendment), to (i) change the required consummation date to September 30, 2025; (ii) add a Fifth Parent Investment of $1.5 million to be completed by April 7, 2025; and (iii) add a special meeting consummation date being on or prior to September 26, 2025.

As discussed above, the A&R Merger Agreement was amended on August 16, 2024, September 6, 2024, October 2, 2024, November 19, 2024, and March 22, 2025; none of the amendments updated this closing condition.
PHEXXI as a Contraceptive; Commercial Strategies
In September 2020, we commercially launched PHEXXI in the United States. Our sales force promotes PHEXXI directly to obstetrician/gynecologists and their affiliated health professionals, who collectively write the majority of prescriptions for contraceptive products. Our sales force comprises approximately 16 regional sales representatives, two business directors and an SVP of Commercial Operations, supported by a self-guided virtual health care provider (HCP) learning platform. Additionally, we offer women direct access to PHEXXI via a telehealth platform. Using this platform, women can directly meet with an HCP to determine their eligibility for a PHEXXI prescription and, if eligible, have the prescription written by the HCP, then filled and mailed directly to them by a third-party pharmacy.
Our comprehensive commercial strategy for PHEXXI includes marketing and product awareness campaigns targeting women of reproductive potential in the U.S., including the approximately 23.3 million women who are not using hormonal contraception and the approximately 20.0 million women who are using a prescription contraceptive, some of whom, particularly oral birth control pill users, may be ready to move to an FDA-approved, non-invasive, non-systemic hormone-free contraceptive, as well as certain identified target HCP segments. In addition to marketing and product awareness campaigns, our commercial strategy includes payer outreach and execution of our consumer digital and media strategy.
Key growth drivers for 2025 include initiatives to expand use of PHEXXI in women who take oral birth control pills in conjunction with GLP-1 prescription medications like Ozempic, Mounjaro and Zepbound for weight loss. These drugs may make oral birth control pills less effective at certain points in the dosing schedule. Per the USPI, prescribers are instructed to “advise patients using oral contraceptives to switch to a non-oral contraceptive method or add a barrier method” to prevent unintended pregnancy during these times.
We continue working to increase the number of lives covered and to gain a preferred formulary position for PHEXXI.
Previous contracting efforts have validated our access strategy. With PHEXXI approval rates consistently above 80%, the Company has taken a step back from broad payer contracting and has leaned into developing more pharmacy partnerships. We’ve recently expanded our network with a major national chain and two trusted regional partners, boosting access and supporting smarter, more targeted pull-through.
Since the second quarter of 2022, we have been under contract with one of the largest pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) in the nation, which added PHEXXI to its formulary with no restrictions for most women covered by the plan. The agreement was retroactive and took effect January 1, 2022 and is representative of approximately 46 million lives.
An additional 13.7 million lives are covered under our December 2020 contract award from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
We also participate in government programs, including the 340B and the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program. As a result of our participation in the Medicaid National Drug Rebate Program, the U.S. Medicaid population gained access to PHEXXI on January 1, 2021. As of May 2024, Medicaid provides health coverage to approximately 73.8 million members; nearly two-thirds of adult women enrolled in Medicaid are in their reproductive years (19-44). Additionally, we recently began participating in a 340B Group Purchasing Organization (GPO) that serves safety-net clinics throughout the U.S. This GPO has over 6,500 members, which expands our reach among safety-net providers.
Approximately 83% of commercial and Medicaid PHEXXI prescriptions are being approved by payers.
PHEXXI is classified in the databases and pricing compendia of Medi-Span and First Databank, two major drug information databases that payers can consult for pricing and product information, as the first and only “Vaginal pH Modulator.”
Effective as of January 1, 2023, most insurers and PBMs must provide coverage, with no out-of-pocket costs (e.g. $0 copay) to the subscriber or dependent, for FDA-approved contraceptive products, like PHEXXI, prescribed by healthcare providers.
As a result, to comply with these Guidelines, payers are increasingly covering PHEXXI by:
In 2022, Evofem developed and introduced a new contraceptive educational chart for patients and HCPs that details high-level information about birth control methods currently available to women in the U.S., including the vaginal pH modulator. This new contraceptive educational tool has been extremely well received and has had a positive impact with HCPs and patients alike.
In July 2024, we expanded our commercial portfolio by acquiring global rights to SOLOSEC® (secnidazole) 2 g oral granules, a single-dose oral antimicrobial agent that provides a complete course of therapy with just one dose for the treatment of two common sexual health infections. SOLOSEC is FDA-approved for the treatment of:
SOLOSEC has the same call point as PHEXXI, enabling us to leverage our commercial infrastructure and strong physician relationships. We re-launched the brand in November 2024.
Bacterial Vaginosis
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) affects an estimated 21 million women in the U.S., approximately 29% of the U.S. population, making it the most common vaginal condition in women ages 15-44. It results from an overgrowth of bacteria, which upsets the balance of the natural vaginal microbiome and can lead to symptoms including odor and discharge. Of interest, BV raises the pH of the vagina, making it a more friendly environment for trichomoniasis and other STIs; approximately 20% of BV patients also have trichomoniasis.
If left untreated, BV can have serious health consequences. Untreated or improperly treated BV is associated with increased risk of infection with STIs like HPV, herpes, trichomoniasis, chlamydia, gonorrhea and HIV, as well as transmission of STIs to a partner. Additional risks include developing pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), which can threaten a women’s fertility, and complications with gynecological surgery.
Research has shown that as many as 50% of patients with BV do not adhere to a full course of metronidazole treatment (500mg BID x 7d) 14 doses. 58% of women who do not complete therapy will have a recurrence within one year. Noncompliance to a multiple-day metronidazole regimen is a contributing factor to persistent BV.
In clinical trials, SOLOSEC demonstrated clinically and statistically significant efficacy in the treatment of BV with just one dose; 68% of patients treated with SOLOSEC did not require any additional treatment for BV. Guidelines for the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) in 2020 and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in 2021 each include single dose SOLOSEC for the treatment of BV.
Trichomoniasis
Trichomoniasis (Trich) is the most common non-viral STI in the world. It is caused by a parasite called Trichomonas vaginalis and affects both women and men. All sexual partners of an infected person must be treated to prevent reinfection with the parasite. In 2018, there were an estimated 6.9 million new T. vaginalis infections in the U.S. According to the CDC, the U.S. prevalence of T. vaginalisis 2.1% among females and 0.5% among males, with the highest rates among Black females (9.6%) and Black males (3.6%). A study of STD clinic attendees in Birmingham, Alabama, identified a prevalence of 27% among women and 9.8% among men. Approximately 70% of women with trichomoniasis are also infected with the bacteria that cause BV.
In clinical trials, a single dose of SOLOSEC demonstrated a cure rate of 92.2% for Trich in women, while reported cure rates in males range from 91.7%-100%.
SOLOSEC’s one-and-done dosing and the resulting high level of compliance is believed to be a significant differentiator. Non-compliance to a multi-day metronidazole regimen is a contributing factor to persistent Trich or BV; and ACOG and the CDC no longer recommend single dose metronidazole to treat Trich in women.
Financial Operations Overview
Net Product Sales
Our revenue recognition is based on unit shipments from our third-party logistics warehouse to our customers, which consist of wholesale distributors, retail pharmacies, telehealth companies, and a mail-order specialty pharmacy. We have recognized net product sales in the U.S. since the commercial launch of PHEXXI in September 2020; SOLOSEC net product sales were added to our revenue beginning in July 2024. Gross revenues, as discussed in Note 3 - Revenue, are adjusted for variable consideration, including our patient support programs.
Operating Expenses
Cost of Goods Sold
Inventory costs include all purchased materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. In addition, in prior years we were obligated to pay quarterly royalty payments pursuant to our license agreement with Rush University, in amounts equal to a single-digit percentage of the gross amounts we receive on a quarterly basis, less certain deductions incurred in the quarter based on a sliding scale. We were also obligated to pay a minimum annual royalty amount of $0.1 million to the extent these earned royalties were less than or equal to $0.1 million in a given year. Due to the patent expiration, no royalty costs were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025, while $0.2 million was incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and was included in the costs of goods sold in the condensed consolidated financial statements. No further royalties are due to Rush University now that the patent has expired.
We are obligated to pay quarterly royalties under the SOLOSEC Asset Purchase Agreement dated July 14, 2024; this royalty is based on a percentage of SOLOSEC net sales, adjusted for co-pay program costs. There are no minimum quarterly or annual royalty amounts. Such royalty costs were $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses primarily consist of costs associated with ongoing improvements related to our products. These expenses include:
We expense internal and third-party research and development expenses as incurred.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company negotiated a portion of its trade payables with numerous vendors, which resulted in a $5.6 million reduction in research and development expenses. Additionally, the amounts related to noncash stock-based compensation expenses decreased to nearly zero, or by 96%, payroll related expenses decreased by $0.2 million, or 60%, outside services costs increased by $0.2 million, or 169%, and other costs increased immaterially, or 19%. We do not anticipate investing in clinical development for the foreseeable future.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Our selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of PHEXXI and SOLOSEC commercialization costs, the PHEXXI telehealth platform, training, salaries, benefits, travel, noncash stock-based compensation expense, and other related costs for our employees and consultants.
Our selling and marketing expenses increased slightly in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the prior year, due in part to the addition of expenses related to adding SOLOSEC, most significantly the additional PDUFA fee, as well as our investment in certain marketing and DTC initiatives for PHEXXI.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, travel, business development expenses, investor and public relations expenses, noncash stock-based compensation, and other related costs for our employees and consultants performing executive, administrative, finance, legal and human resource functions. Other general and administrative expenses include facility-related costs not otherwise included in research and development or selling and marketing, and professional fees for accounting, auditing, tax and legal fees, and other costs associated with obtaining and maintaining our patent portfolio.
Our general and administrative expenses decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily due to a decrease in personnel costs.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) consists primarily of interest expense and the fair value adjustments of financial instruments issued in various capital raise transactions, including loss on issuance of financial instruments, quarterly change in fair value adjustments, and gains or losses on debt extinguishment. The change in fair value of financial instruments was recognized as a result of mark-to-market adjustments for those financial instruments. Additionally, other income (expense) also includes a gain (loss) on debt modification or extinguishment and loss on issuance of financial instruments in the prior year period.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 (in thousands):
(2,758
(77
The decrease in product sales, net, primarily reflects a decrease in the sales volume in the current period due to the significant amount of PHEXXI purchases by wholesalers in December 2024 ahead of the January 2025 price increase. There was also a price increase in January 2024, but the December 2023 purchases were not as significant and as such, the first quarter of 2024 was not as heavily impacted.
(319
The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily due to the decrease in sales in the current period as compared to the same period in the prior year, as well as the end of the Rush royalty as described above. The decreases were offset by a reduction to the SOLOSEC inventory balance related to finished goods that the Company anticipates will be destroyed as part of the upcoming conversion to the Evofem labeled product.

Total other income (expense), net, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily included a gain of $1.2 million related to the change in fair value of financial instruments partially offset by $0.6 million of interest expense related primarily to the Adjuvant Note.
Total other income (expense), net, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily included a loss on the issuance of financial instruments related to the anti-dilution adjustment for the purchase rights and $0.6 million of interest expense related to the Adjuvant Note partially offset by gains related to the re-assignment of the Baker Notes of $1.1 million and $0.8 million from the change in fair value of financial instruments.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2025, we had a working capital deficit of $65.0 million and an accumulated deficit of $896.7 million. We have financed our operations to date primarily through the issuance of preferred stock, common stock, warrants and convertible and term notes; cash received from private placement transactions; and, to a lesser extent, product sales. As of March 31, 2025, we had approximately $1.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, including $0.9 million of restricted cash available for use as prescribed in the Adjuvant Notes (as defined in Note 4 - Debt). Our cash and cash equivalents include amounts held in checking accounts. Management believes that the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025 are insufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months from the date on which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed with the SEC.
We have incurred losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception. In 2024, we focused on further improving and increasing PHEXXI access, acquired global rights to SOLOSEC, and delivered our fourth consecutive year of PHEXXI net sales growth. We also paid our outstanding balance, including interest and penalties, to the FDA for the fiscal years 2023, 2024, and the 2025 PDUFA invoices for PHEXXI and SOLOSEC.
In 2025, we will continue to focus on top-line growth while maintaining a lean operating structure. We will continue to explore opportunities for organic growth, entry into new markets, and potential expansion of our product offerings beyond PHEXXI and SOLOSEC.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s significant commitments include the Baker Notes, Adjuvant Notes, and SSNs as described in Note 4 - Debt and fleet leases, Rush University royalty, SOLOSEC contingent liability, and the potential settlement amount with TherapeuticsMD as described in Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies. The purpose of these commitments is to further the commercialization of PHEXXI and SOLSOEC. Management’s plans to meet the Company’s cash flow needs in the next 12 months include generating revenue from the sale of PHEXXI and SOLOSEC, further restructuring of the Company’s current payables, and obtaining additional funding through means such as the issuance of its capital stock, non-dilutive financings, or through collaborations or partnerships with other companies, including license agreements for PHEXXI and/or SOLOSEC in the U.S. or foreign markets, or other potential business combinations.
If the Company is not able to obtain the required funding through a significant increase in revenue, equity or debt financings, license agreements for PHEXXI in the U.S. or foreign markets, or other means, is enjoined from selling under the PHEXXI mark, or is unable to obtain funding on terms favorable to the Company, there will be a material adverse effect on commercialization and development operations and the Company’s ability to execute its strategic development plan for future growth. If the Company cannot successfully raise additional funding and implement its strategic development plan, the Company may be forced to make further reductions in spending, including spending in connection with its commercialization activities, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible at a potentially lower amount than as recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements, suspend or curtail planned operations, or cease operations entirely. Any of these could materially and adversely affect the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and business prospects, and the Company would not be able to continue as a going concern. The Company has concluded that these circumstances and the uncertainties associated with the Company’s ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing on terms that are favorable to the Company, or at all, and otherwise succeed in its future operations raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
If we are unable to continue as a going concern, we may have to liquidate our assets and, in doing so, we may receive less than the value at which those assets are carried on our condensed consolidated financial statements. Any of these developments would materially and adversely affect the price of our stock and the value of an investment in our stock. As a result, our condensed consolidated financial statements include explanatory disclosures expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The opinion of our independent registered public accounting firm on our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Future reports on our consolidated financial statements may include an explanatory paragraph with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2025 and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 included in this Quarterly Report do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue our operations.
Summary Statement of Cash Flows
The following table sets forth a summary of the net cash flow activity for each of the periods set forth below (in thousands):
359
(336
Cash Flows from Operating Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the primary source of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was related to collection of the accounts receivable from the increased sales in December 2024 ahead of the January 2025 price increase as well as due to continued efforts to restrict spending across the organization. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the primary reason for net cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash provided in operating activities was due to the limited spending in operations across all functions of the Company.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the primary use of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was the payment of amounts related to the acquisition of SOLOSEC which had previously been recorded as accounts payable. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the use of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was immaterial.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the primary use of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was the payment of short-term debt.
Operating and Capital Expenditure Requirements
Our specific future operating and capital expense requirements are difficult to forecast. However, we can anticipate the general types of expenses and areas in which they might occur. In 2025, while we expect to maintain a lean operating structure at approximately the same level as 2024; should resources become available we may increase marketing spend to drive further sales growth.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
Operating Leases
Operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were $0.1 million each on both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. See Note 7- Commitments and Contingencies for more detailed discussions on leases and financial statements information under ASC 842,Leases.
As described in Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies, in November 2019, the Company entered into a supply and manufacturing agreement with a third-party to manufacture PHEXXI, with potential to manufacture other product candidates, in accordance with all applicable current good manufacturing practice regulations. There were approximately $0.8 million in purchases under the supply and manufacturing agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and no such purchases during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
As described in Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies, the Company also has commitments related to the SOLOSEC asset acquisition including a commitment to purchase inventory from the seller through November 2026 at a pre-defined unit price. The Company is also obligated to pay contingent liabilities and quarterly royalties based on SOLOSEC net revenue over the Earnout Term as described in Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies.
As described in Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies, royalty costs owed to Rush University pursuant to the Rush License Agreement were $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. No such amounts were incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2025 due to the expiration of the Rush patent. As of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, approximately $2.0 million were included in accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Other Matters
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
For information with respect to recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have not been any material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. As a result of these material weaknesses, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Securities and Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported as and when required.
Notwithstanding the conclusion by our CEO and CFO that our Disclosure Controls as of March 31, 2025 were not effective, and notwithstanding the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described more fully under Item 9A in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of the date presented, and for the periods ended on such dates, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
Remediation Activities:
Management continues to evaluate the material weaknesses discussed above and is implementing its remediation plan. However, assurance as to when the remediation efforts will be complete cannot be provided and the material weaknesses cannot be considered remedied until the applicable controls have operated for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. Management cannot assure readers that the measures that have been taken to date, and are continuing to be implemented, will be sufficient to remediate the material weaknesses identified or to avoid potential future material weaknesses.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for ongoing remediation activities described in the preceding paragraph, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our latest fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls
Management recognizes that a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is 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; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
