EYEPOINT PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.
Operations

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the Company), as of June 30, 2024 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are unaudited. Certain information in the footnote disclosures of these financial statements has been condensed or omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In the opinion of management, these statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect, among other things, (i) reported amounts of assets and liabilities; (ii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements; and (iii) reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire 2024 fiscal year or any future period.

The Company is committed to developing and commercializing therapeutics to help improve the lives of patients with serious eye disorders. The Company’s pipeline leverages its proprietary bioerodible Durasert E technology (Durasert E) for sustained intraocular drug delivery. The Company’s lead product candidate, DURAVYU, previously EYP-1901, is an investigational sustained delivery treatment for anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) mediated retinal diseases combining vorolanib, a selective and patent-protected tyrosine kinase inhibitor with Durasert E, DURAVYU is currently in Phase 2 clinical trials for wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD), the leading cause of vision loss among people 50 years of age and older in the United States and diabetic macular edema (DME). The Company is also advancing EYP-2301, a promising TIE-2 agonist, razuprotafib, formulated in Durasert E to potentially improve outcomes in serious retinal diseases.

The Company plans to identify and advance additional product candidates through clinical and regulatory development for its pipeline. This may be accomplished through internal discovery efforts, research collaborations and/or in-licensing arrangements and potential acquisitions of additional products, product candidates or technologies.

Liquidity

The Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities of $280.2 million at June 30, 2024. The Company has a history of operating losses and has not had significant recurring cash inflows from revenue. The Company’s operations have been financed primarily from sales of its equity securities, issuance of debt and a combination of license fees, milestone payments, royalty income, and other fees received from its collaboration partners. The Company anticipates that it will continue to incur losses as it continues the research and development of its product candidates, and the Company does not expect revenues to generate sufficient funding to sustain its operations in the near-term. The Company expects to continue fulfilling its funding needs through cash inflows from revenues, licensing and research collaboration transactions, additional equity capital raises and other arrangements. The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities of $280.2 million at June 30, 2024 will enable the Company to fund its current and planned operations for at least the next twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Actual cash requirements could differ from management’s projections due to many factors, including the timing and results of the Company’s clinical trials for DURAVYU, additional investments in research and development programs, competing technological and market developments and the costs of any strategic acquisitions and/or development of complementary business opportunities.

2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, and notes thereto, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on March 8, 2024, or the 2023 Form 10-K. Since the date of those financial statements, there have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within the contract, determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Sales, value-add and other taxes collected on behalf of third parties are excluded from revenue.

Product sales, net — Effective January 2023, commercial sales of DEXYCU® were no longer supported by the Company, remaining available only through specialty distributors. Effective May 2023, YUTIQ® has been and continues to be sold under commercial supply agreements with Alimera Sciences, Inc. (Alimera) and Ocumension Therapeutics (Ocumension) (see Note 3).

Prior to the above dates, the Company sold YUTIQ® and DEXYCU® to a limited number of specialty distributors and specialty pharmacies (collectively the Distributors) in the U.S., with whom the Company had entered into formal agreements, for delivery to physician practices for YUTIQ® and to hospital outpatient departments and ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) for DEXYCU®. The Company recognized revenue on sales of its products when Distributors obtained control of the products, which occurred at a point in time, typically upon delivery. In addition to agreements with Distributors, the Company also entered into arrangements with healthcare providers, ASCs, and payors that provided for government mandated and/or privately negotiated rebates, chargebacks, and discounts with respect to their purchase of the Company's products from Distributors.

Reserves for variable consideration — Product sales were recorded at the wholesale acquisition costs, net of applicable reserves for variable consideration. Components of variable consideration included trade discounts and allowances, provider chargebacks and discounts, payor rebates, product returns, and other allowances that were offered within contracts between the Company and its Distributors, payors, and other contracted purchasers relating to the Company's product sales. These reserves were based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales, and were classified either as reductions of product revenue and accounts receivable or a current liability, depending on how the amount was to be settled. Overall, these reserves reflected the Company's best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it was entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts. The actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company's estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the estimates, the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

Distribution fees — The Company compensated its Distributors for services explicitly stated in the Company’s contracts and were recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product sale was recognized.

Provider chargebacks and discounts — Chargebacks were discounts that represented the estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products at prices lower than the list prices charged to the Company’s Distributors. These Distributors charged the Company for the difference between what they paid for the product and the Company’s contracted selling price. These reserves were established in the same period that the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability. Reserves for chargebacks consisted of amounts that the Company expected to pay for units that remained in the distribution channel inventories at each reporting period-end that the Company expected to be sold under a contracted selling price, and chargebacks that Distributors had claimed, but for which the Company had not yet settled.

Government rebates — The Company was subject to discount obligations under state Medicaid programs and Medicare. These reserves were recorded in the same period the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s liability for these rebates consisted of invoices received for claims from prior quarters that had not been paid or for which an invoice had not yet been received, estimates of claims for the current quarter, and estimated future claims that would be made for product that had been recognized as revenue, but which remained in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period.

Payor rebates — The Company contracted with certain private payor organizations, primarily insurance companies, for the payment of rebates with respect to utilization of its products. The Company estimated these rebates and recorded such estimates in the

8


 

 

same period the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability.

Co-Payment assistance — The Company offered co-payment assistance to commercially insured patients meeting certain eligibility requirements. The calculation of the accrual for co-pay assistance was based on an estimate of claims and the cost per claim that the Company expected to receive associated with product that had been recognized as revenue.

Product returns — The Company generally offered a limited right of return based on its returned goods policy, which included damaged product and remaining shelf life. The Company estimated the amount of its product sales that may be returned and recorded.

License and collaboration agreement revenue — The Company analyzes each element of its license and collaboration arrangements to determine the appropriate revenue recognition. The terms of the license agreement may include payment to the Company of non-refundable upfront license fees, milestone payments if specified objectives are achieved, and/or royalties on product sales. The Company recognizes revenue from upfront payments at a point in time, typically upon fulfilling the delivery of the associated intellectual property to the customer. For licenses that are combined with other promises, the Company determines whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time, when (or as) the associated performance obligation in the contract is satisfied.

If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised products or services underlying each performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling prices based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the standalone selling price taking into account available information such as market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations.

The Company recognizes sales-based milestone payments as revenue upon the achievement of the cumulative sales amount specified in the contract in accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65. For those milestone payments which are contingent on the occurrence of particular future events, the Company determines that these need to be considered for inclusion in the calculation of total consideration from the contract as a component of variable consideration using the most-likely amount method. As such, the Company assesses each milestone to determine the probability and substance behind achieving each milestone. Given the inherent uncertainty associated with these future events, the Company will not recognize revenue from such milestones until there is a high probability of occurrence, which typically occurs near or upon achievement of the event.

When determining the transaction price of a contract, an adjustment is made if payment from a customer occurs either significantly before or significantly after performance, resulting in a significant financing component. Applying the practical expedient in paragraph 606-10-32-18, the Company does not assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when the Company performs its obligations under the contract and when the customer pays is one year or less. None of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component as of June 30, 2024.

Royalties — The Company recognizes revenue from license arrangements with its commercial partners’ net sales of products. Such revenues are included as royalty income. In accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65, royalties are recognized when the subsequent sale of the commercial partner’s products occurs. The Company’s commercial partners are obligated to report their net product sales and the resulting royalty due to the Company typically within 60-days from the end of each quarter. Based on historical product sales, royalty receipts and other relevant information, the Company recognizes royalty income each quarter and subsequently determines a true-up when it receives royalty reports and payment from its commercial partners. Historically, these true-up adjustments have been immaterial.

Sale of Future Royalties — The Company has sold its rights to receive certain royalties on product sales. In the circumstance where the Company has sold its rights to future royalties under a royalty purchase agreement (RPA) and also maintains limited continuing involvement in the arrangement (but not significant continuing involvement in the generation of the cash flows that are due to the purchaser), the Company defers recognition of the proceeds it receives for the sale of royalty streams and recognizes such unearned revenue as revenue under the units-of-revenue method over the life of the underlying license agreement. Under the units-of-revenue method, amortization for a reporting period is calculated by computing a ratio of the proceeds received from the purchaser to the total payments expected to be made to the purchaser over the term of the agreement, and then applying that ratio to the period’s cash payment.

9


 

 

Estimating the total payments expected to be received by the purchaser over the term of such arrangements requires management to use subjective estimates and assumptions. Changes to the Company’s estimate of the payments expected to be made to the purchaser over the term of such arrangements could have a material effect on the amount of revenues recognized in any particular period.

Research Collaborations — The Company recognizes revenue over the term of the statements of work under any funded research collaborations. Revenue recognition for consideration, if any, related to a license option right is assessed based on the terms of any such future license agreement or is otherwise recognized at the completion of the research collaborations.

Please refer to Note 3 for further details on the license and collaboration agreements into which the Company has entered and corresponding amounts of revenue recognized during the current and prior year periods.

Cost of sales — Cost of sales consist of costs associated with the manufacture of YUTIQ® and DEXYCU®, certain period costs for DEXYCU® product revenue, product shipping, and as applicable, royalty expense. The inventory costs for YUTIQ® include purchases of various components, the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), and direct labor and overhead for the product manufactured in the Company’s Watertown, Massachusetts facility. The inventory costs for DEXYCU® include purchased components, the API and third-party manufacturing, and assembly.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, DEXYCU® product revenue-based royalty expense as a component of cost of sales was immaterial.

License and Collaboration Agreements and Royalty Income

Eyebiotech Limited

On May 17, 2024, the Company entered into a license agreement (the Eyebiotech License Agreement) with Eyebiotech Limited (Eyebiotech). Under this agreement, the Company granted Eyebiotech a non-exclusive, sublicensable, assignable license to certain patent rights to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and export licensed products for therapeutic ophthalmological uses worldwide.

In consideration for the rights granted, Eyebiotech made a one-time upfront payment of $0.5 million to the Company upon execution of the Eyebiotech License Agreement. Additionally, Eyebiotech agreed to pay certain milestone payments and tiered royalties based on the achievement of development and regulatory milestones and the annual net sales of licensed products, respectively.

The Company classified the cash proceeds of the $0.5 million upfront payment received from Eyebiotech as license and collaboration revenue upon the execution of the Eyebiotech License Agreement, as this was the only performance obligation identified. This amount is not an advance payment for the provision of future goods or services and is included in the current transaction price. The non-exclusive, sublicensable, assignable license is a functional, right-to-use license, and, therefore, any consideration associated with it is recognized at a point in time.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $0.5 million in license and collaboration revenue related to the upfront payment.

On July 12, 2024, Merck & Co., Inc. announced the completion of the acquisition of Eyebiotech. Eyebiotech is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc. The acquisition does not materially impact the terms of the Eyebiotech License Agreement.

Alimera Product Rights Agreement and Commercial Supply Agreement

On May 17, 2023 (the Closing Date), the Company entered into a PRA with Alimera. Under the PRA, the Company granted to Alimera an exclusive and sublicensable right and license (the License) under the Company’s and its affiliates’ interest in certain of the Company’s and its affiliates’ intellectual property to develop, manufacture, sell, commercialize, and otherwise exploit certain products, including YUTIQ®, for the treatment and prevention of uveitis in the entire world except Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

11


 

 

Additionally, pursuant to the PRA, the Company transferred and assigned to Alimera certain assets (the Transferred Assets) and certain contracts with third parties related to YUTIQ®, including the new drug application for YUTIQ® (collectively, the Asset Transfer). Pursuant to the PRA, Alimera paid the Company a $75.0 million upfront payment. Alimera will also make four quarterly payments of $1.875 million to the Company totaling $7.5 million during 2024. Alimera will also pay royalties to the Company from 2025 to 2028 at a percentage of low-to-mid double digits of Alimera’s related U.S. annual net sales of certain products (including YUTIQ®) in excess of certain thresholds, beginning at $70 million in 2025, and increasing annually thereafter. Upon Alimera’s payment of the Upfront Payment and the 2024 quarterly payments, the licenses and rights granted to Alimera will automatically become perpetual and irrevocable. Payments received from Alimera are non-refundable.

On the Closing Date, the Company and Alimera also entered into a commercial supply agreement (CSA), pursuant to which, during the term of the PRA, the Company agreed to manufacture and exclusively supply to Alimera agreed-upon quantities of YUTIQ® necessary for Alimera to commercialize YUTIQ® in the United States at certain cost plus amounts, subject to adjustments and potential extensions and terminations set forth in the CSA (the Supply Transaction and together with the License and the Asset Transfer, the Transaction).

The Company classified the cash proceeds of the $75.0 million Upfront Payment received from Alimera as deferred revenue at the Closing Date, pursuant to the PRA and the CSA because the License and supply units to be delivered under both agreements comprise a single, combined performance obligation as Alimera will not have the right or ability to manufacture YUTIQ® (or have YUTIQ® manufactured by a third-party contract manufacturing organization) over the initial two-year term pursuant to the CSA. The combined performance obligation is satisfied over time using the units delivered output method to measure progress based on initial estimated supply units of YUTIQ® over the two-year term for purposes of recognizing revenue, such that revenue is recognized based on the value transferred in the form of units of product in the satisfaction of a performance obligation. Through this method, the Company compares the actual units delivered to date with the current estimated total to be delivered in the contractual term to measure the satisfaction of the performance obligation and recognize revenue. The Company will monitor its estimate of total units to be delivered to determine if an adjustment is needed to ensure that revenue is recognized proportionally for units delivered to date relative to the total units expected to be delivered for the combined performance obligation. Such estimates of the total delivery will be reassessed on an ongoing basis. If the Company determines that a change in estimate is necessary, it will adjust revenue using a cumulative catch-up method.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $0.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of revenue from sales of product supply to Alimera under the CSA and recorded this amount in product sales, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company recognized $7.1 million and $17.5 million of license and collaboration revenue related to the PRA during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $3.2 million of license and collaboration revenue related to the PRA during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $31.8 million and $0 as current and non-current deferred revenue recognized under the PRA, respectively.

On June 24, 2024, Alimera announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The proposed acquisition does not materially impact the terms of the PRA or CSA.

SWK Royalty Purchase Agreement

Pursuant to a royalty purchase agreement (RPA) with SWK Funding LLC (SWK), the Company sold its right to receive royalty payments on future sales of products subject to a licensing and development agreement, as amended, with Alimera (the Amended Alimera Agreement) for an upfront cash payment of $16.5 million. The Company classified the proceeds received from SWK as deferred revenue at inception of the RPA and is recognizing revenue as royalty payments are made from Alimera to SWK. The Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.6 million of royalty revenue related to the RPA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.5 million of royalty revenue related to the RPA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $1.5 million and $11.7 million as current and non-current deferred revenue recognized under the RPA, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, the Company classified $1.4 million and $12.4 million as current and non-current deferred revenue recognized under the RPA, respectively.

Ocumension Therapeutics

Pursuant to license agreements and a Memorandum of Understanding signed with the Company, Ocumension has:

An exclusive license for the development and commercialization of its three-year micro insert using the Durasert technology for the treatment of posterior segment uveitis of the eye (YUTIQ® in the U.S.) in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan at its own cost and expense in return for royalties based on sales with the Company supplying products for clinical trials and commercial sale;

12


 

 

An exclusive license for the development and commercialization in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan of DEXYCU® for the treatment of post-operative inflammation following ocular surgery at its own cost and expense in return for royalties based on sales with the Company supplying product for clinical trials and commercial sale; and
Exclusive rights to develop and commercialize YUTIQ® and DEXYCU® products under its own brand names in South Korea and other jurisdictions across Southeast Asia in Brunei, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia, Timor-Leste, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, at its own cost and expense in return for royalties based on sales with the Company supplying product for clinical trials and commercial sale.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $0.5 million of revenue from sales of product supply to Ocumension under the supply agreement and recorded this amount in product sales, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Royalty income of $0.3 million and 0.5 million was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. No royalty income was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. License and collaboration revenue related to additional technical assistance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was immaterial.

Exclusive License Agreement with Betta Pharmaceuticals, Co., Ltd.

On May 2, 2022, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement (the Betta License Agreement) with Betta Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (Betta), an affiliate of Equinox Sciences, LLC (Equinox) (see Note 10). Under the Betta License Agreement, the Company granted to Betta an exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing license under certain of the Company’s intellectual property to develop, use (but not make or have made), sell, offer for sale, and import the Company’s product candidate, DURAVYU, an investigational sustained delivery treatment for anti-VEGF-mediated retinal diseases combining vorolanib, a selective and patent-protected tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with Durasert E (the Licensed Product), in the field of ophthalmology (the Betta Field) in the greater area of China, including China, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Macau Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan (the Betta Territory). The Company retained rights under the Company’s intellectual property to, among other things, conduct clinical trials on the Licensed Product in the Betta Field in the Betta Territory.

In consideration for the rights granted by the Company, Betta agreed to pay the Company tiered, mid-to-high single-digit royalties based upon annual net sales of Licensed Products in the Betta Territory. The royalties are payable on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and region-by-region basis commencing on the first commercial sale of a Licensed Product in a region and continuing until the later of (i) the date that is twelve (12) years after first commercial sale of such Licensed Product in such region, and (ii) the first day of the month following the month in which a generic product corresponding to such Licensed Product is launched in the relevant region. The royalty rate is subject to reduction under certain circumstances, including when there is no valid claim of a licensed patent that covers a Licensed Product in a particular region.

Betta is responsible for all costs relating to development, registration, manufacturing, marketing, advertising, promotional, launch, and sales activities in connection with the Licensed Products in the Betta Field in the Betta Territory. Betta is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, seek regulatory approval for, and commercialize at least one Licensed Product in the Betta Field in the Betta Territory. The Betta License Agreement also requires Betta to achieve certain diligence milestones relating to regulatory filings, patient dosing, and regulatory approval by certain specified deadlines set forth in the Betta License Agreement, subject to certain exceptions and extensions as set forth in the Betta License Agreement. Betta’s development activities will be conducted pursuant to a development plan subject to periodic updates. In the event that the Company conducts a global registrational clinical trial for a Licensed Product in the Betta Field, Betta will have the right to participate in such clinical trial by including clinical trial sites in the Betta Territory in accordance with the terms of the Betta License Agreement. The Company has also agreed to provide certain technology transfer and other support services to Betta subject to certain conditions and limitations set forth in the Betta License Agreement.

Revenue from license and collaboration revenue or royalty income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 related to this agreement was immaterial.

Leases

On January 23, 2023, the Company entered into a lease agreement (Northbridge Lease) for its new standalone commercial manufacturing facility, including office and lab space located at 600 Commerce Drive, Northbridge, Massachusetts. The new 41,141 square-foot manufacturing facility will be Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) compliant to meet U.S. FDA and European Medicines Agency (EMA) standards and will support DURAVYU clinical supply and commercial readiness upon regulatory approval. In addition, the building will have the capacity and capabilities for pipeline expansion. The lease includes a non-cancellable lease term of fifteen years and four months, with two options to extend the lease term for two additional terms of either five years or ten years at 95% of the then-prevailing fair market rent. The lease term, under ASC 842, commenced during the second quarter of 2024. The Company’s obligation to pay base rent will begin four months following the qualification of the premises. The qualification of the premises is anticipated to occur during the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company is responsible for real estate taxes, maintenance, and other operating expenses applicable to the leased premises. The Company recognized an initial increase of $17.7 million to its lease liabilities and $17.9 million to its ROU assets resulting from the Northbridge Lease during the second quarter of 2024.

Since the Company elected to account for each lease component and its associated non-lease components as a single combined component, all contract consideration was allocated to the respective lease components. The expected lease terms include non-cancellable lease periods. Renewal option periods have not been included in the determination of the lease terms as they are not deemed reasonably certain of exercise. Variable lease payments, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and property insurance are not included in the determination of the lease’s ROU asset or lease liability.

Share-Based Payment Awards

Equity Incentive Plan

Prior to June 20, 2024, the Company had authorized the issuance of 9,400,000 shares of the Companys common stock under the 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2016 Plan), of which 373,256 shares remained available for future grants.

The 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”), approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 20, 2023 (the “Adoption Date”), originally provided for the issuance of up to 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the 2023 Plan plus any additional shares of the Company’s common stock that were available for grant under the 2008 and the 2016 Incentive Plan (the “2008 & 2016 Plan”) at the Adoption Date or would otherwise become available for grant under the 2008 Plan as a result of subsequent termination or forfeiture of awards under the 2008 or 2016 Plan. At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 20, 2024, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2023 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance by 4,000,000 shares. At June 30, 2024, a total of approximately 4,386,256 shares were available for new awards under the 2023 Plan.

Starting March 2022, the Company granted non-statutory stock options to new employees as inducement awards to enter into employment with the Company. The grants were approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and awarded in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4). Although not awarded under any equity incentive plans, the grants are subject to and governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable plan in effect at the time of the grant.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP) allows qualified participants to purchase the Company’s common stock twice a year at 85% of the lesser of the average of the high and low sales price of the Company’s common stock on (i) the first trading day of the relevant offering period and (ii) the last trading day of the relevant offering period. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock each employee may purchase under this plan, when combined with all other employee stock purchase plans, is limited to the lower of an aggregate fair market value of $25,000 during each calendar year, or 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in any one offering period. The Company has maintained consecutive six-month offering periods since August 1, 2019. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, 25,015 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued pursuant to the ESPP.

The Company estimated the fair value of the option component of the ESPP shares at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes valuation model. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the compensation expense from ESPP shares was approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the compensation expense from ESPP shares was approximately $0.03 million and $0.08 million.

License and Asset Purchase Agreements

Equinox Science, LLC

In February 2020, the Company entered into an Exclusive License Agreement (the Equinox License Agreement) with Equinox, pursuant to which Equinox granted the Company an exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing right and license to certain patents and other Equinox intellectual property to research, develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, and import the compound vorolanib and any pharmaceutical products comprising the compound for local delivery to the eye for the prevention or treatment of age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal vein occlusion using the Company’s proprietary localized delivery technologies (the Original Field), in each case, throughout the world except China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Macau (the Company Territory).

In consideration for the rights granted by Equinox, the Company (i) made a one time, non-refundable, non-creditable upfront cash payment of $1.0 million to Equinox in February 2020, and (ii) agreed to pay milestone payments totaling up to $50 million upon the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones, consisting of (a) completion of a Phase II clinical trial for the compound or a licensed product, (b) the filing of a new drug application or foreign equivalent for the compound or a licensed product in the United States, European Union, or United Kingdom, and (c) regulatory approval of the compound or a licensed product in the United States, European Union or United Kingdom.

The Company also agreed to pay Equinox tiered royalties based upon annual net sales of licensed products in the Company Territory. The royalties are payable with respect to a licensed product in a particular country in the Company Territory on a country-by-country and licensed product-by-licensed product basis until the later of (i) twelve years after the first commercial sale of such licensed product in such country and (ii) the first day of the month following the month in which a generic product corresponding to such licensed product is launched in such country. The royalty rates range from the high-single digits to low-double digits depending on the level of annual net sales. The royalty rates are subject to reduction during certain periods when there is no valid patent claim that covers a licensed product in a particular country.

On May 2, 2022, concurrent with the Company entering into the Betta License Agreement (see Note 3), the Company entered into Amendment #1 to the Equinox License Agreement, pursuant to which the Original Field was expanded to cover the prevention or treatment of ophthalmology indications using the Company’s proprietary localized delivery technologies and certain conforming changes were made to the Equinox License Agreement in connection therewith.

For the both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 the Company recorded $5.0 million of R&D expenses in connection with the milestone payment for completion of a Phase II clinical trial for the compound or a licensed product under the Equinox License Agreement. No R&D expense was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 related to the Equinox License Agreement.

At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, a total of $64.6 million or 24.6%, and a total of $270.5 million or 98.2%, respectively, of the Company’s interest-bearing cash equivalent balances were concentrated in one institutional money market fund that has investments consisting primarily of Repurchase Agreements, U.S Treasuries, and U.S. Government Agency Debts. The Company had $8.0 million or 11.0%, and a total $5.0 million or 1.8% of the Company's interest-bearing cash equivalent balance which consisted of investment-grade Commercial paper and investment-grade U.S. Treasury securities at June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and, therefore, the Company believes they have minimal risk.

The Company’s cash equivalents and marketable securities are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 on the basis of valuations using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs, respectively. The marketable securities have been valued on the basis of valuations provided by third-party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and ask prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices, or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves, or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security, and have been classified as Level 2.

The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity.

Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

The Company is subject to various routine legal proceedings and claims incidental to its business, which management believes will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

U.S. Department of Justice Subpoena

In August 2022, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts seeking production of documents related to sales, marketing, and promotional practices, including as pertain to DEXYCU® (DOJ Investigation). The Company is cooperating fully with the government in connection with this matter. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the duration, scope or outcome of this matter or whether it could have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow.

13.
Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For periods in which the Company reports net income, diluted net income per share is determined by adding to the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding the total number of dilutive common equivalent shares using the treasury stock method, unless the effect is anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive shares were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Potential common stock equivalents excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive were as follows:

Subsequent Events

FDA Warning Letter

On July 12, 2024, the Company received a warning letter from the FDA (Warning Letter) pertaining to YUTIQ® manufacturing, citing alleged violations of cGMP requirements in connection with an FDA inspection at the Company’s Watertown facility in February 2024.

The Warning Letter requires the Company to implement improvements to the process by which the Company investigates unexplained discrepancies, the implementation of additional written procedures for production and process control, and the adoption of additional control procedures to monitor the output and to validate the performance of manufacturing processes. The Company timely responded to the FDA on August 1, 2024 and is addressing the FDA's observations. Based on current information, the Company believes that the supply of YUTIQ® to patients should not be materially interrupted and that the Company’s other products in development, including DURAVYU, are not impacted by this regulatory action.

Our Business

Overview

We are a company committed to developing and commercializing innovative therapeutics to help improve the lives of patients with serious retinal diseases. Our pipeline leverages our proprietary bioerodible Durasert E technology for sustained intraocular drug delivery. The Company’s lead product candidate, DURAVYU, is an investigational sustained delivery treatment for anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) -mediated retinal diseases combining vorolanib, a selective and patent-protected tyrosine kinase inhibitor with bioerodible Durasert E. DURAVYU is presently in Phase 2 clinical trials as a sustained delivery treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD), the leading cause of vision loss among people 50 years of age and older in the United States, and diabetic macular edema (DME). We expect to randomize patients for inclusion in pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials in wet AMD in 2024.

Recent Developments

In July 2024, Marcia Sellos-Moura, formerly SVP, Program Leadership, assumed a new position as SVP, Head of Development and Program Management, continuing to report to Dr. Jay S. Duker, President and CEO of the Company. In her expanded role, Dr. Sellos-Moura will manage both the R&D and Product Development teams in addition to Program Management.
On June 26, 2024, we hosted an R&D Day in New York City, featuring presentations from EyePoint’s management team as well as key opinion leader (KOL) guest speakers.

 

R&D day highlights included:

o
Phase 3 plans for DURAVYU in wet AMD, including key design elements of the Phase 3 LUGANO and LUCIA pivotal trials
o
Positive twelve-month safety and efficacy data from the Phase 2 DAVIO 2 clinical trial evaluating DURAVYU for the treatment of wet AMD
o
The VERONA trial, a Phase 2 trial of DURAVYU in diabetic macular edema (DME) patients has completed enrollment with 27 patients

R&D Highlights

In May 2024, we announced topline results of our Phase 2 PAVIA clinical trial evaluating DURAVYU (vorolanib intravitreal insert), previously known as EYP-1901, in patients with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR). The data demonstrated that DURAVYU has a biologic effect in patients with NPDR with a favorable safety and tolerability profile, however the trial did not meet the pre-specified primary endpoint. We expect 12-month data from this trial in 3Q 2024.
In May 2024, we completed enrollment in the VERONA trial, a Phase 2 trial of DURAVYU in diabetic macular edema (DME) patients. The trial enrolled 27 patients with topline data anticipated in the first quarter of 2025.
In June 2024, we announced alignment on pathway to approval with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) based on positive End of Phase 2 meeting in April 2024 for two non-inferiority trials, 6-month redosing of DURAVYU and sham for masking with a one-year endpoint. Each trial is expected to enroll approximately 400 patients with active wet AMD, including previously treated and treatment naïve patients, randomly assigned to either a 2.7mg dose of DURAVYU or an on-label aflibercept control. All patients to receive three monthly loading doses of aflibercept prior to DURAVYU with randomization occurring on Day 1. The LUGANO (US) trial remains on track to randomize patients for inclusion in 2024 with LUCIA (US/ex-US) to follow.
In June 2024, we announced positive twelve-month safety and efficacy data from the Phase 2 DAVIO 2 clinical trial evaluating DURAVYU for the treatment of wet AMD.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires that we make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. We base our estimates, judgments, and assumptions on historical experience, anticipated results, and trends, and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances at the time. By their nature, these estimates, judgments, and assumptions are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions. In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, we set forth our critical accounting policies and estimates, which included revenue recognition, reserves for variable consideration associated with our commercial revenue and recognition of expense in outsourced clinical trial agreements. See Note 2 of the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of our accounting policies and estimates for reserves for variable consideration related to product sales.

Product Sales, Net

Product sales, net represents the gross sales of YUTIQ® and DEXYCU® less provisions for product sales allowances. Product sales, net decreased by $4.2 million, or 80%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This decrease was driven by the agreement that granted license and rights to YUTIQ® to Alimera in May 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, product sales, net included $0.6 million of product supply under the existing commercial supply agreement (CSA) with Alimera of $0.6 million, as well as $0.5 million of product supply to Ocumension.

 

License and Collaboration Agreement

License and collaboration agreement revenue increased by $4.1 million, or 116%, to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This increase was due to higher recognition of deferred revenue related to the agreement to license YUTIQ® product rights to Alimera.

Royalty Income

Royalty income increased by $0.4 million, or 167%, to $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. The increase was attributable to increased Ocumension Therapeutics royalties from YUTIQ® product sales in China.

Cost of Sales, Excluding Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets

Cost of sales decreased by $0.4 million, or 22%, to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower commercial product sales year over year.

25


 

 

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $14.1 million, or 90%, to $29.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This increase was attributable primarily to (i) $5.0 million for a milestone payment for completion of our Phase 2 wet AMD (DAVIO2) clinical trial, (ii) $4.3 million higher personnel expense to support clinical trial activity and product development, including $2.7 million of non-cash stock compensation, (iii) $2.1 million higher DURAVYU non-clinical expenses, (iv) $1.3 million higher clinical trial material expense, (v) $0.7 million higher facility and IT expenses, and (vi) $0.5 million in increased clinical trial costs related to DURAVYU in Phase 2 clinical trials for wet AMD (DAVIO2), NPDR (PAVIA), and DME (VERONA).

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $5.2 million, or 99%, to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This decrease was driven by discontinued YUTIQ® promotion due to the agreement that granted YUTIQ® license and rights to Alimera in Q2 2023 and the Company's exit from the commercial business. Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 included support for ongoing government reporting requirements.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased by $3.7 million, or 41%, to $12.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This increase was primarily attributable to $4.0 million in stock-based compensation and $1.0 million in personnel costs, partially offset by lower legal and other administrative expenses.

Interest (Expense) Income

Interest income from investments in marketable securities and institutional money market funds increased by $2.1 million, or 129%, to $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This increase was due primarily to an increase in cash and marketable securities and higher interest rates in the current calendar quarter.

There was no interest expense in the three months ended June 30, 2024 due to the repayment of the loan under the loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (SVB Loan Agreement) on May 17, 2023. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.4 million.

Product Sales, Net

Product sales, net represents the gross sales of YUTIQ® and DEXYCU® less provisions for product sales allowances. Product sales, net decreased by $10.9 million, or 86%, to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This decrease was driven by the agreement that granted license and rights to YUTIQ® to Alimera in May 2023 as the Company exited its commercial business. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, product sales, net were primarily from the sales of product supply under the existing commercial supply agreement (CSA) with Alimera of $1.2 million, as well as $0.5 million of product supply to Ocumension.

License and Collaboration Agreement

License and collaboration agreement revenue increased by $14.7 million, or 405%, to $18.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This increase was due to higher recognition of deferred revenue related to the agreement to license YUTIQ® product rights to Alimera.

Royalty Income

Royalty income increased by $0.6 million, or 122%, to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. The increase was attributable to increased Ocumension Therapeutics royalties from YUTIQ® product sales in China.

27


 

 

Cost of Sales, Excluding Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets

Cost of sales decreased by $0.3 million, or 11%, to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower commercial product sales year over year.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $30.7 million, or 104%, to $60.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This increase was attributable primarily to (i) $6.3 million higher personnel expense to support clinical trial activity and product development, including $3.7 million of non-cash stock compensation, (ii) $5.7 million associated with non-cash equity award modifications expense, (iii) $5.0 million for a milestone payment due for completion of our Phase 2 wet AMD (DAVIO2) clinical trial (iv) $4.8 million in increased clinical trial costs related to DURAVYU in Phase 2 clinical trials for wet AMD (DAVIO2), NPDR (PAVIA), and DME (VERONA), (v) $3.1 million in higher clinical trial material expense, (vi) $2.7 million higher DURAVYU non-clinical expenses, (vii) $1.5 million in severance related expense, and (viii) $1.1 million of other R&D expenses.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $11.0 million, or 99%, to $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This decrease was driven by discontinued YUTIQ® promotion due to the agreement that granted YUTIQ® license and rights to Alimera in Q2 2023 and the Company's exit from the commercial business. Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 included support for ongoing government reporting requirements.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased by $8.5 million, or 46%, to $26.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This increase was driven by (i) $7.5 million in stock-based compensation, (ii) $2.2 million in higher personnel costs, partially offset by $1.2 million in lower legal and other administrative expenses.

Interest (Expense) Income

Interest income from investments in marketable securities and institutional money market funds increased by $4.9 million, or 175%, to $7.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period the prior year. This increase was due primarily to an increase in cash and marketable securities and higher interest rates in the current year to date period.

There was no interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2024 due to the repayment of the loan under the loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (SVB Loan Agreement) on May 17, 2023. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $1.2 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have had a history of operating losses and an absence of significant recurring cash inflows from revenue, and at June 30, 2024 we had a total accumulated deficit of $802.3 million. Our operations have been financed primarily from sales of our equity securities, issuance of debt and a combination of license fees, milestone payments, royalty income and other fees received from collaboration partners.

Financing Activities

On May 17, 2023, we utilized a portion of the Upfront Payment from the Alimera PRA (see Note 3) and repaid in full all outstanding amounts under the SVB Loan Agreement. The SVB Loan Agreement was then terminated, and all security interests and other liens granted to or held by the Lender were terminated and released.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we did not sell any shares of our common stock under our at-the-market offering facility. During July 2024, we sold 1,299,506 shares of our common stock under our at-the-market offering facility at a weighted average price of $9.36 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $12.2 million. Share issue costs, including sales agent commissions, totaled approximately $0.4 million.

Future Funding Requirements

At June 30, 2024, we had cash, cash equivalents, and investments in marketable securities of $280.2 million. We expect that our cash and investments in marketable securities will enable us to fund our current operating plan through anticipated Phase 3 wet AMD topline data for DURAVYU in 2026. Due to the difficulty and uncertainty associated with the design and implementation of preclinical studies and clinical trials, we will continue to assess our cash and cash equivalents and future funding requirements. However, there is no assurance that additional funding will be achieved and that we will succeed in our future operations. We expect to continue to incur substantial additional operating losses for at least the next several years as we continue to develop our product candidates and seek marketing approval and, subject to obtaining such approval, the eventual commercialization of our product candidates. If we obtain marketing approval for any of our product candidates, we will incur significant sales, marketing, and manufacturing expenses. We also expect to continue to incur significant costs to comply with corporate governance, internal controls, and similar requirements associated with operating as a public reporting company.

Actual cash requirements could differ from management’s projections due to many factors including additional investments in research and development programs, clinical trial expenses for DURAVYUand EYP-2301, competing technological and market developments and the costs of any strategic acquisitions and/or development of complementary business opportunities.

The amount of additional capital we will require will be influenced by many factors, including, but not limited to:

1.
the scope, progress, results, and costs of clinical trials of DURAVYU, as a sustained delivery intravitreal treatment for wet AMD, NPDR, and DME
2.
our expectations regarding the timing and clinical development of our product candidates, including DURAVYU, and EYP-2301;
3.
the duration, scope, and outcome of the DOJ Subpoena and its impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows;
4.
whether and to what extent we internally fund, whether and when we initiate, and how we conduct additional pipeline product development programs;
5.
payments we receive under any new collaboration agreements or payments expected from existing agreements;
6.
whether and when we are able to enter into strategic arrangements for our products or product candidates and the nature of those arrangements;
7.
the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending, and enforcing any patent claims;
8.
the costs and timing to implement corrective and preventive actions required by the Warning Letter to the satisfaction of the FDA;
9.
changes in our operating plan, resulting in increases or decreases in our need for capital; and
10.
our views on the availability, timing, and desirability of raising capital.

We expect to seek additional funding to sustain our future operations and while we have successfully raised capital in the past, the ability to raise capital in future periods is not assured. We do not know if additional capital will be available when needed or on terms favorable to us or our stockholders. Collaboration, licensing or other agreements may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. If we seek to sell our equity securities, we do not know whether and to what extent we will be able to do so, or on what terms. If available, additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders, debt financing may involve restrictive covenants or other unfavorable terms and dilute our existing stockholders’ equity, and funding through collaboration, licensing or other commercial agreements may be on unfavorable terms, including requiring us to relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products. If adequate financing is not available if and when needed, we may delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate research or development programs, if any, postpone or cancel the pursuit of product candidates, or otherwise significantly curtail our operations to reduce our cash requirements and extend our capital.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, particularly during the period in which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was being prepared.

Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving its desired objectives, and our management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

31


 

 

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

We are subject to various routine legal proceedings and claims incidental to our business, which management believes will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We previously disclosed that in August 2022, we received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts seeking production of documents related to sales, marketing, and promotional practices, including as pertain to DEXYCU®. We are cooperating fully with the government in connection with this matter. At this time, we are unable to predict the duration, scope or outcome of this matter or whether it could have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

This section augments and updates certain risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the Annual Report). The following risk factors should be read together with the other risk factors disclosed in the Annual Report. In addition to the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, all of the risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating us and our common stock. Any of these risks, many of which are beyond our control, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, or cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. We may also face other risks and uncertainties that are not presently known, are not currently believed to be material, or are not identified below because they are common to all businesses. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. For more information, see “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

We use our own facility for the manufacturing of YUTIQ® and rely on third party suppliers for key components, and any disruptions to our or our suppliers’ operations could adversely affect YUTIQ®’s commercial viability and our ability to supply YUTIQ® to Alimera and Ocumension.



Pursuant to our agreements with our commercialization partners, we currently manufacture commercial supplies of YUTIQ® ourselves at our Watertown, MA facility and rely on third party suppliers for key components of YUTIQ®. We have, and will continue, to perform extensive audits of our suppliers, vendors, and contract laboratories. The cGMP requirements govern, among other things, recordkeeping, production processes, and controls, personnel, and quality control. To ensure that we continue to meet these requirements, we have and will continue to expend significant time, money, and effort.

 

The commercial manufacture of medical products is complex and requires significant expertise and capital investment, including the development of advanced manufacturing techniques and process controls. Manufacturers of medical products often encounter difficulties in production, particularly in scaling up and validating initial production and ensuring the absence of contamination. These problems include difficulties with production costs and yields, quality control, including stability of the product, quality assurance testing, operator error, shortages of qualified personnel, as well as compliance with strictly enforced federal, state, and foreign regulations. We cannot assure you that any issue relating to the manufacture of YUTIQ® will not occur in the future.

 

The FDA also may, at any time following approval of a product for sale, audit our manufacturing facilities. If any such inspection or audit identifies a failure to comply with applicable regulations or if a violation of our product specifications or applicable regulation occurs independent of such an inspection or audit, the FDA may issue a Form FDA-483 and/or a warning letter, which may require remedial measures that may be costly and time consuming for us to implement and that may include the temporary or permanent suspension of commercial sales, recalls, market withdrawals, seizures or the temporary or permanent closure of a facility. In February 2024, we received an FDA Form-483 at the conclusion of an FDA inspection of our Watertown facility which included certain observations specifically related to the manufacturing of YUTIQ®, and a subsequent determination that our facility had been classified as Official Action Indicated (OAI), which could lead to an enforcement action or, if left un-addressed, negatively affect our manufacturing of YUTIQ®. We submitted written responses to the FDA in March 2024 and May 2024 addressing the FDA’s observations.



On July 12, 2024, we received a warning letter from the FDA (“Warning Letter”), citing alleged violations of current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) requirements in connection with the February 2024 FDA inspection at the Watertown facility and the associated February 2024 Form FDA-483, specifically related to the manufacturing of YUTIQ®. The Warning Letter does not represent a final FDA determination of compliance. The Warning Letter requires that we implement certain corrective and preventive actions, including improvements to the process by which we investigate unexplained discrepancies, the implementation of additional

32


 

 

written procedures for production and process control, and the adoption of additional control procedures to monitor the output and to validate the performance of manufacturing processes. Addressing FDA observations and advancing quality initiatives are key priorities for the Company, and the Company has implemented and plans to further implement improvements to strengthen quality and sustainable compliance. We responded to the FDA on August 1, 2024 and, based on current information, we believe the supply of YUTIQ® to patients should not be materially interrupted. However, if we are unable to remediate the findings to the FDA’s satisfaction, we may face additional consequences including an inability to satisfy our obligations under our supply agreements with Alimera and Ocumension and possible FDA regulatory or legal actions. Notwithstanding, based on current information, we believe our other products in development, including DURAVYU, are not impacted by this regulatory action.

 

If our Contract Research Organizations (CROs), Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs), Contract Development Manufacturing Organizations (CDMOs), vendors, and investigators do not successfully carry out their responsibilities or if we lose our relationships with them, our development efforts with respect to our product candidates could be delayed.

 

We are dependent on CROs, CMOs, CDMOs, vendors, and investigators for pre-clinical testing and clinical trials related to our product development programs, including for DURAVYU and other product candidates. These parties are not our employees, and we cannot control the amount or timing of resources that they devote to our programs. If they do not timely fulfill their responsibilities or if their performance is inadequate, the development, and commercialization of our product candidates could be delayed.

 

The parties with which we contract for execution of clinical trials play a significant role in the conduct of the trials and the subsequent collection and analysis of data. Their failure to meet their obligations could adversely affect clinical development of our product candidates. In addition, if we or our CROs fail to comply with applicable current Good Clinical Practices (GCP), the clinical data generated in our clinical trials may be deemed unreliable and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may require us to perform additional clinical trials before approving any marketing applications. Upon inspection, the FDA may determine that our clinical trials did not comply with GCP.

 

Switching or adding additional CROs involves additional cost and requires management time and focus. Identifying, qualifying, and managing performance of third-party service providers can be difficult, time-consuming, and cause delays in our development programs. In addition, there is a natural transition period when a new CRO commences work and the new CRO may not provide the same type or level of services as the original provider. Though we carefully manage our relationships with our CROs, there can be no assurance that we will not encounter challenges or delays in the future or that these delays or challenges will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and prospects. If any of our relationships with our CROs terminate, we may not be able to enter into arrangements with alternative CROs or to do so on commercially reasonable terms. As a result, delays may occur, which can materially impact our ability to meet our desired clinical development timelines.

 

Additionally, our CMOs may experience manufacturing difficulties due to resource constraints or as a result of labor disputes or unstable political environments. If our CMOs were to encounter any of these difficulties, our ability to provide our product candidate to patients in clinical trials, or to provide product for the treatment of patients once approved, would be jeopardized.

 

In addition, any facilities located outside the United States (U.S.) that are used by us or by our CMOs or CDMOs to manufacture, test, and optimize our product candidates will be subject to various regulatory requirements of the jurisdiction in which they are located and in addition be subject to trade laws and regulations of the U.S. that may restrict our ability to continue to utilize certain CMOs or CDMOs. Foreign CMOs or CDMOs may be subject to U.S. legislation or investigations, including the proposed BIOSECURE Act, sanctions, trade restrictions, and other foreign regulatory requirements, which could increase the cost or reduce the supply of material available to us, delay the procurement or supply of such material, delay or impact clinical trials, have an adverse effect on our clinical drug development efforts and could adversely affect our financial condition and business prospects. For example, we currently engage with WuXi Apptec (WuXi), to perform certain process development, manufacturing, and testing associated with one of our product candidates, EYP-2301. WuXi has been identified as a U.S. national security threat in the proposed BIOSECURE Act, which, if enacted, or if alternatively implemented through executive or administrative action, could restrict WuXi’s business in the U.S. or the ability of businesses in the U.S. to conduct business with WuXi.

 

Moreover, if a foreign regulatory authority curtails operations at such foreign facilities of our CMOs or CDMOs, or if trade laws are adopted limiting our ability to use such CMO or CDMO facilities, we may need to find alternative facilities, which could negatively impact our clinical development timelines.

 

Because we have relied on third parties, our internal capacity to perform certain functions is limited. Outsourcing these functions involves risks that third parties may not perform to our standards, may not produce results in a timely manner or may fail to perform at all. In addition, the use of third-party service providers requires us to disclose our proprietary information to these parties,

33


 

 

which could increase the risk that this information will be misappropriated. We currently have a small number of employees, which limits the internal resources we have available to identify and monitor our third-party providers. To the extent we are unable to identify and successfully manage the performance of third-party service providers in the future, our ability to advance our product candidates through clinical trials will be compromised. Though we carefully manage our relationships with our CROs, CMOs, and CDMOs, there can be no assurance that we will not encounter similar challenges or delays in the future or that these delays or challenges will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and prospects.

Employee does not waive or release: (1) her right to enforce or challenge the validity of this Agreement pursuant to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act; (2) breach of this Agreement; (3) any vested rights which Employee may have under any employer-sponsored benefit plan; (4) the right to file any unwaivable charge or complaint with a government administrative agency (although Employee does waive and release any right to recover damages in connection with any such charge or complaint relating to anything which has happened up to the date Employee signs this Agreement); (5) workers’ compensation benefits; (6) state disability compensation; (7) rights or claims which cannot lawfully be released by private agreement; and/or (8) rights or claims arising after the date Employee signs this Agreement.

 

Employee represents that as of the date she signs this Agreement, she is not aware of any work-related illness or injury for which she might be entitled to compensation or relief (such as workers’ compensation). Employee also represents that she has been fully and timely paid all wages, overtime compensation, bonuses, commissions, benefits, and/or other amounts due in connection with her employment with EyePoint. Employee further understands and agrees that the severance benefits specified in Section 2 are not compensation for Employee’s services rendered through the Separation Date, but rather are being offered to Employee in exchange for the promises contained

2

 


 

in this Agreement, including but not limited to Employee’s waiver of rights and claims specified in this Section 3, and is above and beyond any wages or salary or other sums to which Employee is entitled from EyePoint. Employee understands that EyePoint relied on these representations in entering into this Agreement.

4. Confidentiality and Return of Property.

 

Employee represents that Employee has not divulged any proprietary or confidential information of EyePoint and agrees to not disclose or communicate to any person, firm or company, or cause the unauthorized disclosure of, or otherwise make use of, EyePoint’s proprietary or confidential information. Notwithstanding, Employee will continue to maintain the confidentiality of such information as required by that certain Employment Letter Agreement between Employee and the Company, initially dated September 15, 2016 and subsequently amended on January 3, 2023 and July 10, 2023 (as amended, the “Employment Agreement”).

 

Employee represents that, with the exception of Employee’s continued ability to access emails and associated folders and files on the Company’s Outlook server, which Employee shall continue to be able to access for so long as Employee remains a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, Employee has returned all other EyePoint property, documents, and/or any confidential or proprietary information in Employee’s possession or control. Employee agrees not to make or retain copies, reproductions or summaries of any such property, except as may be accessible on the Company’s email archives. To the extent necessary to access Eyepoint property, Employee agrees to provide EyePoint with her passwords or passcodes. Employee also agrees that Employee is in possession of all of Employee’s property that Employee had at EyePoint’s premises and that EyePoint is not in possession of any of Employee’s property.

 

5. Participation in Agency Proceedings. Nothing in this Agreement or any other agreement that Employee may have with EyePoint or its affiliates restricts or prevents Employee from initiating communications directly with, responding to any inquiries from, providing testimony before, reporting possible violations of law or regulation to, or from filing a claim or charge with, or assisting in an investigation directly with any governmental agency or entity, or self-regulatory authority, including but not limited to the EEOC, the NLRB, OSHA, the SEC, Department of Justice, Congress, any agency Inspector General, or other similar federal, state or local agency (collectively, the “Regulators”), or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable state or federal law or regulation. Nothing in this Agreement prevents Employee from disclosing certain EyePoint documents as permitted by law to Regulators for the purpose of reporting an EyePoint violation of federal, state or local law. Employee is encouraged, but not required, to consult an EyePoint lawyer or personal lawyer before making a disclosure of EyePoint documents. Further, nothing in this Agreement prohibits or restricts Employee (or Employee’s attorney) from filing a charge, responding to an inquiry, participating in an investigation, or providing testimony about this Agreement or its underlying facts and circumstances by, with, or before any Regulator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in making any such disclosures or communications, Employee must take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of any information that may constitute Confidential

3

 


 

Information (as defined in the Employment Agreement) to any party other than the applicable Regulators. Nevertheless, Employee acknowledges and agrees that by virtue of this Agreement Employee is waiving any and all rights to recover any monetary or other personal relief against the Released Parties as a result of any charge, civil action, suit or proceeding (including but not limited to any proceeding brought by any other person or by an governmental agency) with respect to any claim or right waived in this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall preclude Employee from receiving a monetary award from the SEC pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, 15 U.S.C. § 78u-6.

6. Cooperation. Employee shall cooperate with EyePoint and its subsidiaries or affiliates in connection with any pending or future investigation, litigation, proceeding or other matter which may be filed against or by EyePoint or its subsidiaries or affiliates with any agency, court, or other tribunal and concerning or relating to any matter falling within Employee’s knowledge or former area of responsibility. Employee shall provide reasonable assistance and completely truthful testimony in such matters as needed. Employee shall not be entitled to any compensation for such cooperation, except that EyePoint will reimburse Employee for all reasonable associated out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation.

7. Governing Law and Interpretation. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

8. Severability. If any of the provisions, terms, clauses, or waivers or release of claims or rights contained in this Agreement are declared illegal, unenforceable, or ineffective in a legal forum, such provisions, terms, clauses, or waivers or release of claims or rights shall be deemed severable, such that all other provisions, terms, clauses, and waivers and releases of claims and rights contained in this Agreement shall remain valid and binding upon all parties. If the voided term is material, the parties shall immediately commence negotiations for a replacement provision of substantively similar value.

 

9. Nonadmission of Wrongdoing. Neither party, by signing this Agreement, admits any wrongdoing or liability to the other. Both Employee and EyePoint deny any wrongdoing or liability.

 

10. Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified, altered or changed except in writing and signed by both Employee and EyePoint.

 

11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between Employee and EyePoint. This Agreement supersedes and replaces any prior agreements or understandings between the Employee and Company, except Section 3 of the Employment Agreement which remains in full force and effect. Employee acknowledges that Employee has not relied on any representations, promises, or agreements of any kind made to Employee in connection with Employee’s decision to accept this Agreement, except for those set forth in this Agreement.

12. ADEA Waiver

 

Employee acknowledges that she is waiving and releasing claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended by the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act (“ADEA”). Employee acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already entitled. Employee further acknowledges that Employee has been advised by this Agreement that:

 

a. Employee has carefully read and fully understands the terms of this Agreement;

 

b. Employee is advised to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement;

 

c. Employee has at least twenty-one (21) days to consider this Agreement;

 

d. Employee agrees that any change to the release contained in Section 3, whether material or immaterial, will not restart the twenty-one (21) day review period;

 

e.
Employee has taken time to consider whether to sign this Agreement and has chosen to sign this Agreement freely, knowingly, and voluntarily;
f.
Employee has up to seven (7) days following execution of this Agreement to revoke this Agreement;

 

g.
Employee may revoke this Agreement by delivering a written revocation to Ron Honig, Chief Legal Officer, EyePoint Pharmaceuticals US, Inc., Suite C400, 480 Pleasant Street, Watertown, MA 02472, via email to rhonig@eyepointpharma.com. The revocation may also be personally delivered or sent to Ron Honig via overnight courier before the end of the seven (7) day period.

 

h.
If Employee does not revoke during the 7-day revocation period, this Agreement will take effect on the 8th day after Employee signs this Agreement.

 

i.
Employee may sign this Agreement no sooner than the day after Employee’s Separation Date and no later than August 26, 2024. If Employee does not return an executed copy of this Agreement before 5:00 p.m. (ET) on August 26, 2024, this severance offer will expire and all provisions of this Agreement shall be void and of no legal effect.

Operations

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the Company), as of June 30, 2024 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are unaudited. Certain information in the footnote disclosures of these financial statements has been condensed or omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In the opinion of management, these statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect, among other things, (i) reported amounts of assets and liabilities; (ii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements; and (iii) reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire 2024 fiscal year or any future period.

The Company is committed to developing and commercializing therapeutics to help improve the lives of patients with serious eye disorders. The Company’s pipeline leverages its proprietary bioerodible Durasert E technology (Durasert E) for sustained intraocular drug delivery. The Company’s lead product candidate, DURAVYU, previously EYP-1901, is an investigational sustained delivery treatment for anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) mediated retinal diseases combining vorolanib, a selective and patent-protected tyrosine kinase inhibitor with Durasert E, DURAVYU is currently in Phase 2 clinical trials for wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD), the leading cause of vision loss among people 50 years of age and older in the United States and diabetic macular edema (DME). The Company is also advancing EYP-2301, a promising TIE-2 agonist, razuprotafib, formulated in Durasert E to potentially improve outcomes in serious retinal diseases.

The Company plans to identify and advance additional product candidates through clinical and regulatory development for its pipeline. This may be accomplished through internal discovery efforts, research collaborations and/or in-licensing arrangements and potential acquisitions of additional products, product candidates or technologies.

Liquidity

The Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities of $280.2 million at June 30, 2024. The Company has a history of operating losses and has not had significant recurring cash inflows from revenue. The Company’s operations have been financed primarily from sales of its equity securities, issuance of debt and a combination of license fees, milestone payments, royalty income, and other fees received from its collaboration partners. The Company anticipates that it will continue to incur losses as it continues the research and development of its product candidates, and the Company does not expect revenues to generate sufficient funding to sustain its operations in the near-term. The Company expects to continue fulfilling its funding needs through cash inflows from revenues, licensing and research collaboration transactions, additional equity capital raises and other arrangements. The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities of $280.2 million at June 30, 2024 will enable the Company to fund its current and planned operations for at least the next twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Actual cash requirements could differ from management’s projections due to many factors, including the timing and results of the Company’s clinical trials for DURAVYU, additional investments in research and development programs, competing technological and market developments and the costs of any strategic acquisitions and/or development of complementary business opportunities.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, and notes thereto, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on March 8, 2024, or the 2023 Form 10-K. Since the date of those financial statements, there have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within the contract, determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Sales, value-add and other taxes collected on behalf of third parties are excluded from revenue.

Product sales, net — Effective January 2023, commercial sales of DEXYCU® were no longer supported by the Company, remaining available only through specialty distributors. Effective May 2023, YUTIQ® has been and continues to be sold under commercial supply agreements with Alimera Sciences, Inc. (Alimera) and Ocumension Therapeutics (Ocumension) (see Note 3).

Prior to the above dates, the Company sold YUTIQ® and DEXYCU® to a limited number of specialty distributors and specialty pharmacies (collectively the Distributors) in the U.S., with whom the Company had entered into formal agreements, for delivery to physician practices for YUTIQ® and to hospital outpatient departments and ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) for DEXYCU®. The Company recognized revenue on sales of its products when Distributors obtained control of the products, which occurred at a point in time, typically upon delivery. In addition to agreements with Distributors, the Company also entered into arrangements with healthcare providers, ASCs, and payors that provided for government mandated and/or privately negotiated rebates, chargebacks, and discounts with respect to their purchase of the Company's products from Distributors.

Reserves for variable consideration — Product sales were recorded at the wholesale acquisition costs, net of applicable reserves for variable consideration. Components of variable consideration included trade discounts and allowances, provider chargebacks and discounts, payor rebates, product returns, and other allowances that were offered within contracts between the Company and its Distributors, payors, and other contracted purchasers relating to the Company's product sales. These reserves were based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales, and were classified either as reductions of product revenue and accounts receivable or a current liability, depending on how the amount was to be settled. Overall, these reserves reflected the Company's best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it was entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts. The actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company's estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the estimates, the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

Distribution fees — The Company compensated its Distributors for services explicitly stated in the Company’s contracts and were recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product sale was recognized.

Provider chargebacks and discounts — Chargebacks were discounts that represented the estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products at prices lower than the list prices charged to the Company’s Distributors. These Distributors charged the Company for the difference between what they paid for the product and the Company’s contracted selling price. These reserves were established in the same period that the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability. Reserves for chargebacks consisted of amounts that the Company expected to pay for units that remained in the distribution channel inventories at each reporting period-end that the Company expected to be sold under a contracted selling price, and chargebacks that Distributors had claimed, but for which the Company had not yet settled.

Government rebates — The Company was subject to discount obligations under state Medicaid programs and Medicare. These reserves were recorded in the same period the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s liability for these rebates consisted of invoices received for claims from prior quarters that had not been paid or for which an invoice had not yet been received, estimates of claims for the current quarter, and estimated future claims that would be made for product that had been recognized as revenue, but which remained in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period.

Payor rebates — The Company contracted with certain private payor organizations, primarily insurance companies, for the payment of rebates with respect to utilization of its products. The Company estimated these rebates and recorded such estimates in the

same period the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability.

Co-Payment assistance — The Company offered co-payment assistance to commercially insured patients meeting certain eligibility requirements. The calculation of the accrual for co-pay assistance was based on an estimate of claims and the cost per claim that the Company expected to receive associated with product that had been recognized as revenue.

Product returns — The Company generally offered a limited right of return based on its returned goods policy, which included damaged product and remaining shelf life. The Company estimated the amount of its product sales that may be returned and recorded.

License and collaboration agreement revenue — The Company analyzes each element of its license and collaboration arrangements to determine the appropriate revenue recognition. The terms of the license agreement may include payment to the Company of non-refundable upfront license fees, milestone payments if specified objectives are achieved, and/or royalties on product sales. The Company recognizes revenue from upfront payments at a point in time, typically upon fulfilling the delivery of the associated intellectual property to the customer. For licenses that are combined with other promises, the Company determines whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time, when (or as) the associated performance obligation in the contract is satisfied.

If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised products or services underlying each performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling prices based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the standalone selling price taking into account available information such as market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations.

The Company recognizes sales-based milestone payments as revenue upon the achievement of the cumulative sales amount specified in the contract in accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65. For those milestone payments which are contingent on the occurrence of particular future events, the Company determines that these need to be considered for inclusion in the calculation of total consideration from the contract as a component of variable consideration using the most-likely amount method. As such, the Company assesses each milestone to determine the probability and substance behind achieving each milestone. Given the inherent uncertainty associated with these future events, the Company will not recognize revenue from such milestones until there is a high probability of occurrence, which typically occurs near or upon achievement of the event.

When determining the transaction price of a contract, an adjustment is made if payment from a customer occurs either significantly before or significantly after performance, resulting in a significant financing component. Applying the practical expedient in paragraph 606-10-32-18, the Company does not assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when the Company performs its obligations under the contract and when the customer pays is one year or less. None of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component as of June 30, 2024.

Royalties — The Company recognizes revenue from license arrangements with its commercial partners’ net sales of products. Such revenues are included as royalty income. In accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65, royalties are recognized when the subsequent sale of the commercial partner’s products occurs. The Company’s commercial partners are obligated to report their net product sales and the resulting royalty due to the Company typically within 60-days from the end of each quarter. Based on historical product sales, royalty receipts and other relevant information, the Company recognizes royalty income each quarter and subsequently determines a true-up when it receives royalty reports and payment from its commercial partners. Historically, these true-up adjustments have been immaterial.

Sale of Future Royalties — The Company has sold its rights to receive certain royalties on product sales. In the circumstance where the Company has sold its rights to future royalties under a royalty purchase agreement (RPA) and also maintains limited continuing involvement in the arrangement (but not significant continuing involvement in the generation of the cash flows that are due to the purchaser), the Company defers recognition of the proceeds it receives for the sale of royalty streams and recognizes such unearned revenue as revenue under the units-of-revenue method over the life of the underlying license agreement. Under the units-of-revenue method, amortization for a reporting period is calculated by computing a ratio of the proceeds received from the purchaser to the total payments expected to be made to the purchaser over the term of the agreement, and then applying that ratio to the period’s cash payment.

Estimating the total payments expected to be received by the purchaser over the term of such arrangements requires management to use subjective estimates and assumptions. Changes to the Company’s estimate of the payments expected to be made to the purchaser over the term of such arrangements could have a material effect on the amount of revenues recognized in any particular period.

Research Collaborations — The Company recognizes revenue over the term of the statements of work under any funded research collaborations. Revenue recognition for consideration, if any, related to a license option right is assessed based on the terms of any such future license agreement or is otherwise recognized at the completion of the research collaborations.

Please refer to Note 3 for further details on the license and collaboration agreements into which the Company has entered and corresponding amounts of revenue recognized during the current and prior year periods.

Cost of sales — Cost of sales consist of costs associated with the manufacture of YUTIQ® and DEXYCU®, certain period costs for DEXYCU® product revenue, product shipping, and as applicable, royalty expense. The inventory costs for YUTIQ® include purchases of various components, the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), and direct labor and overhead for the product manufactured in the Company’s Watertown, Massachusetts facility. The inventory costs for DEXYCU® include purchased components, the API and third-party manufacturing, and assembly.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, DEXYCU® product revenue-based royalty expense as a component of cost of sales was immaterial.

Product Revenue Reserves and Allowances

From January 1, 2023 through May 17, 2023 (the date the Company entered into the product rights agreement (PRA) with Alimera, pursuant to which the Company granted an exclusive license and rights to its YUTIQ® (fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implant) 0.18 mg (YUTIQ®) product to Alimera, the Company’s product revenues were primarily from sales of YUTIQ® in the U.S.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s product revenues were primarily from the Company’s existing commercial supply agreements with Alimera and Ocumension. For the three-and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s product revenues were made up of $1.1 million and $1.7 million from the sales of YUTIQ®. For the three-and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, the Company’s product revenues were made up of $5.3 million and $12.7 million from the sales of YUTIQ®.

License and Collaboration Agreements and Royalty Income

Eyebiotech Limited

On May 17, 2024, the Company entered into a license agreement (the Eyebiotech License Agreement) with Eyebiotech Limited (Eyebiotech). Under this agreement, the Company granted Eyebiotech a non-exclusive, sublicensable, assignable license to certain patent rights to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and export licensed products for therapeutic ophthalmological uses worldwide.

In consideration for the rights granted, Eyebiotech made a one-time upfront payment of $0.5 million to the Company upon execution of the Eyebiotech License Agreement. Additionally, Eyebiotech agreed to pay certain milestone payments and tiered royalties based on the achievement of development and regulatory milestones and the annual net sales of licensed products, respectively.

The Company classified the cash proceeds of the $0.5 million upfront payment received from Eyebiotech as license and collaboration revenue upon the execution of the Eyebiotech License Agreement, as this was the only performance obligation identified. This amount is not an advance payment for the provision of future goods or services and is included in the current transaction price. The non-exclusive, sublicensable, assignable license is a functional, right-to-use license, and, therefore, any consideration associated with it is recognized at a point in time.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $0.5 million in license and collaboration revenue related to the upfront payment.

On July 12, 2024, Merck & Co., Inc. announced the completion of the acquisition of Eyebiotech. Eyebiotech is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc. The acquisition does not materially impact the terms of the Eyebiotech License Agreement.

Alimera Product Rights Agreement and Commercial Supply Agreement

On May 17, 2023 (the Closing Date), the Company entered into a PRA with Alimera. Under the PRA, the Company granted to Alimera an exclusive and sublicensable right and license (the License) under the Company’s and its affiliates’ interest in certain of the Company’s and its affiliates’ intellectual property to develop, manufacture, sell, commercialize, and otherwise exploit certain products, including YUTIQ®, for the treatment and prevention of uveitis in the entire world except Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

Additionally, pursuant to the PRA, the Company transferred and assigned to Alimera certain assets (the Transferred Assets) and certain contracts with third parties related to YUTIQ®, including the new drug application for YUTIQ® (collectively, the Asset Transfer). Pursuant to the PRA, Alimera paid the Company a $75.0 million upfront payment. Alimera will also make four quarterly payments of $1.875 million to the Company totaling $7.5 million during 2024. Alimera will also pay royalties to the Company from 2025 to 2028 at a percentage of low-to-mid double digits of Alimera’s related U.S. annual net sales of certain products (including YUTIQ®) in excess of certain thresholds, beginning at $70 million in 2025, and increasing annually thereafter. Upon Alimera’s payment of the Upfront Payment and the 2024 quarterly payments, the licenses and rights granted to Alimera will automatically become perpetual and irrevocable. Payments received from Alimera are non-refundable.

On the Closing Date, the Company and Alimera also entered into a commercial supply agreement (CSA), pursuant to which, during the term of the PRA, the Company agreed to manufacture and exclusively supply to Alimera agreed-upon quantities of YUTIQ® necessary for Alimera to commercialize YUTIQ® in the United States at certain cost plus amounts, subject to adjustments and potential extensions and terminations set forth in the CSA (the Supply Transaction and together with the License and the Asset Transfer, the Transaction).

The Company classified the cash proceeds of the $75.0 million Upfront Payment received from Alimera as deferred revenue at the Closing Date, pursuant to the PRA and the CSA because the License and supply units to be delivered under both agreements comprise a single, combined performance obligation as Alimera will not have the right or ability to manufacture YUTIQ® (or have YUTIQ® manufactured by a third-party contract manufacturing organization) over the initial two-year term pursuant to the CSA. The combined performance obligation is satisfied over time using the units delivered output method to measure progress based on initial estimated supply units of YUTIQ® over the two-year term for purposes of recognizing revenue, such that revenue is recognized based on the value transferred in the form of units of product in the satisfaction of a performance obligation. Through this method, the Company compares the actual units delivered to date with the current estimated total to be delivered in the contractual term to measure the satisfaction of the performance obligation and recognize revenue. The Company will monitor its estimate of total units to be delivered to determine if an adjustment is needed to ensure that revenue is recognized proportionally for units delivered to date relative to the total units expected to be delivered for the combined performance obligation. Such estimates of the total delivery will be reassessed on an ongoing basis. If the Company determines that a change in estimate is necessary, it will adjust revenue using a cumulative catch-up method.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $0.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of revenue from sales of product supply to Alimera under the CSA and recorded this amount in product sales, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company recognized $7.1 million and $17.5 million of license and collaboration revenue related to the PRA during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $3.2 million of license and collaboration revenue related to the PRA during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $31.8 million and $0 as current and non-current deferred revenue recognized under the PRA, respectively.

On June 24, 2024, Alimera announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The proposed acquisition does not materially impact the terms of the PRA or CSA.

SWK Royalty Purchase Agreement

Pursuant to a royalty purchase agreement (RPA) with SWK Funding LLC (SWK), the Company sold its right to receive royalty payments on future sales of products subject to a licensing and development agreement, as amended, with Alimera (the Amended Alimera Agreement) for an upfront cash payment of $16.5 million. The Company classified the proceeds received from SWK as deferred revenue at inception of the RPA and is recognizing revenue as royalty payments are made from Alimera to SWK. The Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.6 million of royalty revenue related to the RPA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.5 million of royalty revenue related to the RPA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $1.5 million and $11.7 million as current and non-current deferred revenue recognized under the RPA, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $0.5 million of revenue from sales of product supply to Ocumension under the supply agreement and recorded this amount in product sales, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Royalty income of $0.3 million and 0.5 million was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. No royalty income was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. License and collaboration revenue related to additional technical assistance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was immaterial.

Exclusive License Agreement with Betta Pharmaceuticals, Co., Ltd.

On May 2, 2022, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement (the Betta License Agreement) with Betta Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (Betta), an affiliate of Equinox Sciences, LLC (Equinox) (see Note 10). Under the Betta License Agreement, the Company granted to Betta an exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing license under certain of the Company’s intellectual property to develop, use (but not make or have made), sell, offer for sale, and import the Company’s product candidate, DURAVYU, an investigational sustained delivery treatment for anti-VEGF-mediated retinal diseases combining vorolanib, a selective and patent-protected tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with Durasert E (the Licensed Product), in the field of ophthalmology (the Betta Field) in the greater area of China, including China, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Macau Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan (the Betta Territory). The Company retained rights under the Company’s intellectual property to, among other things, conduct clinical trials on the Licensed Product in the Betta Field in the Betta Territory.

In consideration for the rights granted by the Company, Betta agreed to pay the Company tiered, mid-to-high single-digit royalties based upon annual net sales of Licensed Products in the Betta Territory. The royalties are payable on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and region-by-region basis commencing on the first commercial sale of a Licensed Product in a region and continuing until the later of (i) the date that is twelve (12) years after first commercial sale of such Licensed Product in such region, and (ii) the first day of the month following the month in which a generic product corresponding to such Licensed Product is launched in the relevant region. The royalty rate is subject to reduction under certain circumstances, including when there is no valid claim of a licensed patent that covers a Licensed Product in a particular region.

Betta is responsible for all costs relating to development, registration, manufacturing, marketing, advertising, promotional, launch, and sales activities in connection with the Licensed Products in the Betta Field in the Betta Territory. Betta is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, seek regulatory approval for, and commercialize at least one Licensed Product in the Betta Field in the Betta Territory. The Betta License Agreement also requires Betta to achieve certain diligence milestones relating to regulatory filings, patient dosing, and regulatory approval by certain specified deadlines set forth in the Betta License Agreement, subject to certain exceptions and extensions as set forth in the Betta License Agreement. Betta’s development activities will be conducted pursuant to a development plan subject to periodic updates. In the event that the Company conducts a global registrational clinical trial for a Licensed Product in the Betta Field, Betta will have the right to participate in such clinical trial by including clinical trial sites in the Betta Territory in accordance with the terms of the Betta License Agreement. The Company has also agreed to provide certain technology transfer and other support services to Betta subject to certain conditions and limitations set forth in the Betta License Agreement.

Revenue from license and collaboration revenue or royalty income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 related to this agreement was immaterial.

Leases

On January 23, 2023, the Company entered into a lease agreement (Northbridge Lease) for its new standalone commercial manufacturing facility, including office and lab space located at 600 Commerce Drive, Northbridge, Massachusetts. The new 41,141 square-foot manufacturing facility will be Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) compliant to meet U.S. FDA and European Medicines Agency (EMA) standards and will support DURAVYU clinical supply and commercial readiness upon regulatory approval. In addition, the building will have the capacity and capabilities for pipeline expansion. The lease includes a non-cancellable lease term of fifteen years and four months, with two options to extend the lease term for two additional terms of either five years or ten years at 95% of the then-prevailing fair market rent. The lease term, under ASC 842, commenced during the second quarter of 2024. The Company’s obligation to pay base rent will begin four months following the qualification of the premises. The qualification of the premises is anticipated to occur during the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company is responsible for real estate taxes, maintenance, and other operating expenses applicable to the leased premises. The Company recognized an initial increase of $17.7 million to its lease liabilities and $17.9 million to its ROU assets resulting from the Northbridge Lease during the second quarter of 2024.

Since the Company elected to account for each lease component and its associated non-lease components as a single combined component, all contract consideration was allocated to the respective lease components. The expected lease terms include non-cancellable lease periods. Renewal option periods have not been included in the determination of the lease terms as they are not deemed reasonably certain of exercise. Variable lease payments, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and property insurance are not included in the determination of the lease’s ROU asset or lease liability.

As of June 30, 2024 the weighted average remaining term of the Company’s operating leases was 12.6 years and the weighted average discount rate was 11.56%.

In August 2020, the Company entered into an at-the-market facility (the ATM Facility) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co (Cantor). Pursuant to the ATM Facility, the Company may, at its option, offer and sell shares of its common stock from time to time, through or to Cantor, acting as sales agent. The Company will pay Cantor a commission of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from any future sales of such shares.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not sell any shares of its common stock under the ATM Facility.

During July 2024 the Company sold 1,299,506 shares of its common stock under the ATM facility at a weighted average price of $9.36 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $12.2 million. Share issue costs, including sales agent commissions, totaled approximately $0.4 million.

Pursuant to a credit agreement, the Company issued a warrant to SWK to purchase (i) 40,910 shares of the Company’s common stock on March 28, 2018 at an exercise price of $11.00 per share with a seven-year term and (ii) 7,773 shares of the Company’s common stock on June 26, 2018 at an exercise price of $19.30 per share with a seven-year term.

In January 2024, SWK exercised their warrants in full via cashless exercise resulting in the net share issuance of 25,666 shares.

The Company issued 3,272,727 shares of Pre-Funded Warrants (PFW) to purchase common stock, in connection with the November 2021 underwritten public offering. On April 18, 2024, 2,181,818 PFWs were exercised in full as a cashless exercise, resulting in a net issuance of 2,180,776 shares of common stock.

Equity Incentive Plan

Prior to June 20, 2024, the Company had authorized the issuance of 9,400,000 shares of the Companys common stock under the 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2016 Plan), of which 373,256 shares remained available for future grants.

The 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”), approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 20, 2023 (the “Adoption Date”), originally provided for the issuance of up to 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the 2023 Plan plus any additional shares of the Company’s common stock that were available for grant under the 2008 and the 2016 Incentive Plan (the “2008 & 2016 Plan”) at the Adoption Date or would otherwise become available for grant under the 2008 Plan as a result of subsequent termination or forfeiture of awards under the 2008 or 2016 Plan. At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 20, 2024, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2023 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance by 4,000,000 shares. At June 30, 2024, a total of approximately 4,386,256 shares were available for new awards under the 2023 Plan.

Starting March 2022, the Company granted non-statutory stock options to new employees as inducement awards to enter into employment with the Company. The grants were approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and awarded in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4). Although not awarded under any equity incentive plans, the grants are subject to and governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable plan in effect at the time of the grant.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP) allows qualified participants to purchase the Company’s common stock twice a year at 85% of the lesser of the average of the high and low sales price of the Company’s common stock on (i) the first trading day of the relevant offering period and (ii) the last trading day of the relevant offering period. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock each employee may purchase under this plan, when combined with all other employee stock purchase plans, is limited to the lower of an aggregate fair market value of $25,000 during each calendar year, or 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in any one offering period. The Company has maintained consecutive six-month offering periods since August 1, 2019. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, 25,015 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued pursuant to the ESPP.

The Company estimated the fair value of the option component of the ESPP shares at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes valuation model. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the compensation expense from ESPP shares was approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the compensation expense from ESPP shares was approximately $0.03 million and $0.08 million.

License and Asset Purchase Agreements

Equinox Science, LLC

In February 2020, the Company entered into an Exclusive License Agreement (the Equinox License Agreement) with Equinox, pursuant to which Equinox granted the Company an exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing right and license to certain patents and other Equinox intellectual property to research, develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, and import the compound vorolanib and any pharmaceutical products comprising the compound for local delivery to the eye for the prevention or treatment of age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal vein occlusion using the Company’s proprietary localized delivery technologies (the Original Field), in each case, throughout the world except China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Macau (the Company Territory).

In consideration for the rights granted by Equinox, the Company (i) made a one time, non-refundable, non-creditable upfront cash payment of $1.0 million to Equinox in February 2020, and (ii) agreed to pay milestone payments totaling up to $50 million upon the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones, consisting of (a) completion of a Phase II clinical trial for the compound or a licensed product, (b) the filing of a new drug application or foreign equivalent for the compound or a licensed product in the United States, European Union, or United Kingdom, and (c) regulatory approval of the compound or a licensed product in the United States, European Union or United Kingdom.

The Company also agreed to pay Equinox tiered royalties based upon annual net sales of licensed products in the Company Territory. The royalties are payable with respect to a licensed product in a particular country in the Company Territory on a country-by-country and licensed product-by-licensed product basis until the later of (i) twelve years after the first commercial sale of such licensed product in such country and (ii) the first day of the month following the month in which a generic product corresponding to such licensed product is launched in such country. The royalty rates range from the high-single digits to low-double digits depending on the level of annual net sales. The royalty rates are subject to reduction during certain periods when there is no valid patent claim that covers a licensed product in a particular country.

On May 2, 2022, concurrent with the Company entering into the Betta License Agreement (see Note 3), the Company entered into Amendment #1 to the Equinox License Agreement, pursuant to which the Original Field was expanded to cover the prevention or treatment of ophthalmology indications using the Company’s proprietary localized delivery technologies and certain conforming changes were made to the Equinox License Agreement in connection therewith.

For the both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 the Company recorded $5.0 million of R&D expenses in connection with the milestone payment for completion of a Phase II clinical trial for the compound or a licensed product under the Equinox License Agreement. No R&D expense was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 related to the Equinox License Agreement.

At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, a total of $64.6 million or 24.6%, and a total of $270.5 million or 98.2%, respectively, of the Company’s interest-bearing cash equivalent balances were concentrated in one institutional money market fund that has investments consisting primarily of Repurchase Agreements, U.S Treasuries, and U.S. Government Agency Debts. The Company had $8.0 million or 11.0%, and a total $5.0 million or 1.8% of the Company's interest-bearing cash equivalent balance which consisted of investment-grade Commercial paper and investment-grade U.S. Treasury securities at June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and, therefore, the Company believes they have minimal risk.

The Company’s cash equivalents and marketable securities are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 on the basis of valuations using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs, respectively. The marketable securities have been valued on the basis of valuations provided by third-party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and ask prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices, or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves, or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security, and have been classified as Level 2.

The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity.

Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For periods in which the Company reports net income, diluted net income per share is determined by adding to the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding the total number of dilutive common equivalent shares using the treasury stock method, unless the effect is anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive shares were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Potential common stock equivalents excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive were as follows:

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within the contract, determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Sales, value-add and other taxes collected on behalf of third parties are excluded from revenue.

Product sales, net — Effective January 2023, commercial sales of DEXYCU® were no longer supported by the Company, remaining available only through specialty distributors. Effective May 2023, YUTIQ® has been and continues to be sold under commercial supply agreements with Alimera Sciences, Inc. (Alimera) and Ocumension Therapeutics (Ocumension) (see Note 3).

Prior to the above dates, the Company sold YUTIQ® and DEXYCU® to a limited number of specialty distributors and specialty pharmacies (collectively the Distributors) in the U.S., with whom the Company had entered into formal agreements, for delivery to physician practices for YUTIQ® and to hospital outpatient departments and ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) for DEXYCU®. The Company recognized revenue on sales of its products when Distributors obtained control of the products, which occurred at a point in time, typically upon delivery. In addition to agreements with Distributors, the Company also entered into arrangements with healthcare providers, ASCs, and payors that provided for government mandated and/or privately negotiated rebates, chargebacks, and discounts with respect to their purchase of the Company's products from Distributors.

Reserves for variable consideration — Product sales were recorded at the wholesale acquisition costs, net of applicable reserves for variable consideration. Components of variable consideration included trade discounts and allowances, provider chargebacks and discounts, payor rebates, product returns, and other allowances that were offered within contracts between the Company and its Distributors, payors, and other contracted purchasers relating to the Company's product sales. These reserves were based on the amounts earned, or to be claimed on the related sales, and were classified either as reductions of product revenue and accounts receivable or a current liability, depending on how the amount was to be settled. Overall, these reserves reflected the Company's best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it was entitled based on the terms of the respective underlying contracts. The actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company's estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the estimates, the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

Distribution fees — The Company compensated its Distributors for services explicitly stated in the Company’s contracts and were recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product sale was recognized.

Provider chargebacks and discounts — Chargebacks were discounts that represented the estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products at prices lower than the list prices charged to the Company’s Distributors. These Distributors charged the Company for the difference between what they paid for the product and the Company’s contracted selling price. These reserves were established in the same period that the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability. Reserves for chargebacks consisted of amounts that the Company expected to pay for units that remained in the distribution channel inventories at each reporting period-end that the Company expected to be sold under a contracted selling price, and chargebacks that Distributors had claimed, but for which the Company had not yet settled.

Government rebates — The Company was subject to discount obligations under state Medicaid programs and Medicare. These reserves were recorded in the same period the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability which was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s liability for these rebates consisted of invoices received for claims from prior quarters that had not been paid or for which an invoice had not yet been received, estimates of claims for the current quarter, and estimated future claims that would be made for product that had been recognized as revenue, but which remained in the distribution channel inventories at the end of each reporting period.

Payor rebates — The Company contracted with certain private payor organizations, primarily insurance companies, for the payment of rebates with respect to utilization of its products. The Company estimated these rebates and recorded such estimates in the

same period the related revenue was recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability.

Co-Payment assistance — The Company offered co-payment assistance to commercially insured patients meeting certain eligibility requirements. The calculation of the accrual for co-pay assistance was based on an estimate of claims and the cost per claim that the Company expected to receive associated with product that had been recognized as revenue.

Product returns — The Company generally offered a limited right of return based on its returned goods policy, which included damaged product and remaining shelf life. The Company estimated the amount of its product sales that may be returned and recorded.

License and collaboration agreement revenue — The Company analyzes each element of its license and collaboration arrangements to determine the appropriate revenue recognition. The terms of the license agreement may include payment to the Company of non-refundable upfront license fees, milestone payments if specified objectives are achieved, and/or royalties on product sales. The Company recognizes revenue from upfront payments at a point in time, typically upon fulfilling the delivery of the associated intellectual property to the customer. For licenses that are combined with other promises, the Company determines whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time, when (or as) the associated performance obligation in the contract is satisfied.

If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised products or services underlying each performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling prices based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the standalone selling price taking into account available information such as market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations.

The Company recognizes sales-based milestone payments as revenue upon the achievement of the cumulative sales amount specified in the contract in accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65. For those milestone payments which are contingent on the occurrence of particular future events, the Company determines that these need to be considered for inclusion in the calculation of total consideration from the contract as a component of variable consideration using the most-likely amount method. As such, the Company assesses each milestone to determine the probability and substance behind achieving each milestone. Given the inherent uncertainty associated with these future events, the Company will not recognize revenue from such milestones until there is a high probability of occurrence, which typically occurs near or upon achievement of the event.

When determining the transaction price of a contract, an adjustment is made if payment from a customer occurs either significantly before or significantly after performance, resulting in a significant financing component. Applying the practical expedient in paragraph 606-10-32-18, the Company does not assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when the Company performs its obligations under the contract and when the customer pays is one year or less. None of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component as of June 30, 2024.

Royalties — The Company recognizes revenue from license arrangements with its commercial partners’ net sales of products. Such revenues are included as royalty income. In accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65, royalties are recognized when the subsequent sale of the commercial partner’s products occurs. The Company’s commercial partners are obligated to report their net product sales and the resulting royalty due to the Company typically within 60-days from the end of each quarter. Based on historical product sales, royalty receipts and other relevant information, the Company recognizes royalty income each quarter and subsequently determines a true-up when it receives royalty reports and payment from its commercial partners. Historically, these true-up adjustments have been immaterial.

Sale of Future Royalties — The Company has sold its rights to receive certain royalties on product sales. In the circumstance where the Company has sold its rights to future royalties under a royalty purchase agreement (RPA) and also maintains limited continuing involvement in the arrangement (but not significant continuing involvement in the generation of the cash flows that are due to the purchaser), the Company defers recognition of the proceeds it receives for the sale of royalty streams and recognizes such unearned revenue as revenue under the units-of-revenue method over the life of the underlying license agreement. Under the units-of-revenue method, amortization for a reporting period is calculated by computing a ratio of the proceeds received from the purchaser to the total payments expected to be made to the purchaser over the term of the agreement, and then applying that ratio to the period’s cash payment.

Estimating the total payments expected to be received by the purchaser over the term of such arrangements requires management to use subjective estimates and assumptions. Changes to the Company’s estimate of the payments expected to be made to the purchaser over the term of such arrangements could have a material effect on the amount of revenues recognized in any particular period.

Research Collaborations — The Company recognizes revenue over the term of the statements of work under any funded research collaborations. Revenue recognition for consideration, if any, related to a license option right is assessed based on the terms of any such future license agreement or is otherwise recognized at the completion of the research collaborations.

Please refer to Note 3 for further details on the license and collaboration agreements into which the Company has entered and corresponding amounts of revenue recognized during the current and prior year periods.

Cost of sales — Cost of sales consist of costs associated with the manufacture of YUTIQ® and DEXYCU®, certain period costs for DEXYCU® product revenue, product shipping, and as applicable, royalty expense. The inventory costs for YUTIQ® include purchases of various components, the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), and direct labor and overhead for the product manufactured in the Company’s Watertown, Massachusetts facility. The inventory costs for DEXYCU® include purchased components, the API and third-party manufacturing, and assembly.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, DEXYCU® product revenue-based royalty expense as a component of cost of sales was immaterial.
