JAGUAR HEALTH, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Business
Jaguar Health, Inc. (“Jaguar” or the “Company”) was founded in San Francisco, California, as a Delaware corporation on June 6, 2013 (inception). The Company was a majority-owned subsidiary of Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Napo”) until the close of the Company’s initial public offering on May 18, 2015. The Company was formed to develop and commercialize first-in-class prescription and non-prescription products for companion animals.
On July 31, 2017, Jaguar completed a merger with Napo pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 31, 2017, by and among Jaguar, Napo, Napo Acquisition Corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Napo’s representative (the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon the completion of the merger, Merger Sub merged with and into Napo, with Napo surviving as the wholly owned subsidiary (the “Merger” or “Napo Merger”). Immediately following the Merger, Jaguar changed its name from “Jaguar Animal Health, Inc.” to “Jaguar Health, Inc.” Napo now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Jaguar focused on human health, including the ongoing development of crofelemer and commercialization of Mytesi.
On March 15, 2021, Jaguar established Napo EU S.p.A (which changed its name in December 2021 to “Napo Therapeutics”) in Milan, Italy as a subsidiary of Napo. Napo Therapeutics’ core mission is to provide access to crofelemer in Europe to address significant rare/orphan disease indications, including, initially, two key orphan target indications: short bowel syndrome (“SBS”) with intestinal failure and congenital diarrheal disorders (“CDD”).
The Company manages its operations through

Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company, since its inception, has incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $
Although the Company plans to finance its operations and cash flow needs through equity and/or debt financing, collaboration arrangements with other entities, license royalty agreements, as well as revenue from future product sales, the Company does not believe its current cash balances are sufficient to fund its operating plan through one year from the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. There can be no assurance that additional funding will be available to the Company on acceptable terms or on a timely basis, if at all, or that the Company will generate sufficient cash from operations to adequately fund operating needs. If the Company is unable to obtain an adequate level of financing needed for the long-term
10
development and commercialization of the products, the Company will need to curtail planned activities and reduce costs. Doing so will likely have an adverse effect on the ability to execute the Company’s business plan; accordingly, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue in existence as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and on a basis consistent with the annual consolidated financial statements, and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. These interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, or for any other future annual or interim period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
There has been no material change to the Company's significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the significant accounting policies described in Note 2 of the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was filed to SEC on April 1, 2024, and amended on April 17, 2024.
Except as noted above, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2024, results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, changes in convertible preferred stock and stockholders' equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future interim periods or for the entire year.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries with controlling interest. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company's reporting currency is the U.S. dollar.
Noncontrolling interest
The Company consolidates the results of Napo Therapeutics, which was owned
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The accounting policies that reflect the Company’s more significant estimates and judgments and that the Company believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating its reported financial results are the valuation of stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), freestanding and hybrid instruments designated at fair value option (“FVO”), warrant liabilities, acquired in-process research and development (“IPR&D”), and useful lives assigned to long-lived assets; impairment assessment of non-financial assets; valuation adjustments for excess and obsolete inventory; allowance for doubtful accounts; deferred taxes and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets; evaluation and measurement of contingencies; and recognition of revenue, including estimates for product returns. Those estimates could change, and as a result, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
11
Cash
The Company’s cash on deposit may exceed United States federally insured limits at certain times during the year. The Company maintains cash accounts with certain major financial institutions in the United States. The Company does not have cash equivalents as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Accounts Receivable, net
Accounts receivable is recorded net of allowances for discounts for prompt payment and credit losses.
Upon adoption of ASU No. 2013-13 (“ASC 326”), the Company began utilizing a loss rate approach under the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model to determine its lifetime expected credit losses on receivables from customers. This method calculates an estimate of credit losses based on historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable balances, and current and forecasted economic and business conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. In determining the loss rates, the Company evaluates information related to its historical losses, adjusted for existing conditions, and further adjusted for the period of time that can reasonably be forecasted. The facts and circumstances as of the balance sheet date are used to adjust the estimate for periods beyond those that can reasonably be forecasted.
The past due status of accounts receivable is determined based on the contractual due dates for payments. Receivable is deemed past due when payment has not been received 30 days after the contractual due date. The credit loss allowance was immaterial as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The corresponding expense for the credit loss allowance is reflected in general and administrative expenses.
Current Expected Credit Losses
The Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses for financial assets carried at amortized cost to present the net amount expected to be collected as of the balance sheet date. Such allowance is based on credit losses that are expected to arise over the contractual term of the asset, which includes consideration of historical credit loss information adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as provision of (or reversal of) credit loss expense. Assets are written off when the Company determines that such are deemed uncollectible. Write-offs are recognized as a deduction from the allowance for credit losses. Expected recoveries of amounts previously written off, not to exceed the aggregate of the amount previously written off, are included in determining the necessary allowance at the balance sheet date.
Concentrations
Cash is the financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk as cash is deposited with a bank, and cash balances generally exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, substantially all of the Company’s revenue was derived from the sale of Mytesi. In looking at sales by the Company to specialty pharmacies whose net revenue percentage of total net revenue was equal to or greater than

The Company is subject to concentration risk from the single third-party contract manufacturer, Glenmark.
Other Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s future operations results involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company’s future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations including, but not limited to, war, rapid technological change, obtaining second source suppliers and manufacturers, regulatory approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or other regulatory authorities, the results of clinical trials and the achievement of milestones, market acceptance of the Company’s product candidates, competition from other products and larger companies, protection of proprietary technology, strategic relationships and dependence on key individuals.
Other Global Events
Macroeconomic conditions worldwide are subject to constant change, influenced by several factors, including persistently high inflation, structural weaknesses in the labor market, low productivity growth, adverse weather conditions, and possible political unrest in certain regions. Despite these global economic challenges, no significant changes have occurred in the Company's operations.
Fair Value
The Company’s financial instruments include accounts receivable, net, other receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, operating lease liability, and debt. The recorded carrying amount of accounts receivable, other receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities reflect their fair value due to their short-term nature. Other financial liabilities are initially recorded at fair value, and subsequently measured at fair value or amortized cost using the effective interest method. See Note 3 for the fair value measurements.
Fair Value Option
ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”), provides an FVO election that allows companies an irrevocable election to use fair value as the initial and subsequent accounting measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities. ASC 825-10 permits entities to elect to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value on an ongoing basis. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the FVO has been elected are reported in earnings. The decision to elect the FVO is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis, must be applied to an entire instrument, and is irrevocable once elected. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value pursuant to ASC 825-10 are required to be reported separately from those instruments measured using another accounting method. In accordance with the options presented in ASC 825-10, the Company elected to present the aggregate of fair value and non-fair-value amounts in the same line item in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and parenthetically disclose the amount measured at fair value in the aggregate amount. The fair values of the Company's financial instruments reflect the amounts that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value estimates presented in these financial statements are based on information available to the Company as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Cost is initially recorded at the invoiced amount of services or API provided by third-party processors, Probos and Corfasac, including the sum of qualified expenditures and charges for bringing the inventory to its existing condition and location. Inventory is categorized into raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods. Raw materials consist of Crude Plant Latex (“CPL”), recognized as inventory upon harvest and valued at cost, including acquisition and harvest expenditures. Work-in-process inventory is recognized only when CPL has been transformed into API and is in transit to Patheon, with costs comprising direct materials, labor, and applicable overheads. Finished goods represent completed Crofelemer tablets ready for sale, valued at cost, which includes direct materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead allocated during production. The Company calculates inventory valuation adjustments when conditions indicate that net realizable value is less than cost due to physical deterioration, usage, obsolescence, reductions in estimated future demand, or reductions in selling price. Inventory write-downs are measured as the difference between the cost of inventory and net realizable value. The Company does

Prelaunch Inventory
The Company’s policy is to capitalize costs for prelaunch inventories within the drug development phase, which is evidence that the product’s reasonably likely critical attributes for success are present and feasible, and the key causes of failures are absent based on management’s assumptions. The costs that can be capitalized for pre-launch inventory are recorded as “Prepaid expenses and other current assets.”
Property and Equipment
Land is stated at cost, reflecting the fair value of the property at July 31, 2017, the date of the Napo merger. Equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Equipment begins to be depreciated when it is placed into service. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging between to
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance of assets are charged to expenses as incurred. Costs of major additions and betterments are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Upon retirement or sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets disposed of are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Software Developed for Internal Use
The Company capitalizes the costs of developing software for internal use. These costs include both purchased software and internally developed software. Costs of developing software are expensed until technological feasibility has been established. Thereafter, all costs are capitalized and are carried at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Internally developed and purchased software costs are generally amortized over
The Company evaluated the carrying value of its internal use software costs as at December 31, 2023, in accordance with ASC 360-10, Impairment of Long-lived Assets to be Held or Used. Based on the evaluation, the Company determined that the internal use software costs – registry's carrying value as of December 31, 2023, were no longer recoverable and recorded a corresponding impairment loss. The impairment loss was calculated as the difference between the registry's carrying value and its estimated fair value on December 31, 2023. The fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model, a Level 3 evaluation technique under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”). The DCF model utilized entity-specific assumptions regarding future sales volume, pricing, and costs. These assumptions considered factors such as the continuity of existing customer relationships, potential shifts in economic conditions, and other relevant market influences. The net cash flows generated by the model were then discounted to present value using a rate reflective of the time value of money and the inherent use associated with the expected cash flows. The discount rate was based on the comparable debt instrument deemed appropriate by management. Given the changing market conditions, there is a reasonable possibility that the estimates used to determine the registry's fair value may require adjustments in the near future. Any such changes in assumptions could result in further impairment charges. The Company recognized an expense for the year ended December 31, 2023, and a corresponding reduction in the carrying value of the internal use software-registry as a result of the impairment.
Long-lived Assets
The Company regularly reviews the carrying value and estimated lives of all of its long-lived assets, including property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets, to determine whether indicators of impairment exist that warrant adjustments to carrying values or estimated useful lives. The determinants used for this evaluation include management’s estimate of the asset’s ability to generate positive income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods, as well as the strategic significance of the assets to the Company’s business objectives. If the Company determines that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset group may not be recoverable, the Company evaluates the realizability of its long-lived assets (asset group) based on a comparison of projected undiscounted cash flows from use and eventual disposition with the carrying value of the related asset. Any write-downs (measured based on the difference between the fair value and the asset's carrying value) are treated as permanent reductions in the carrying amount of the assets (asset group).
Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
Acquired IPR&D are intangible assets acquired in the July 2017 Napo merger. Under ASC 80, Business Combination, IPR&D are initially recognized at fair value and classified as indefinite-lived assets until the successful completion or abandonment of the associated research and development efforts. During the development period, these assets will not be amortized as charges to
14
earnings; instead, these assets will be tested for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if impairment indicators are identified. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the carrying amount over the asset’s fair value. The Company recorded
Leases
The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”).
At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. Because the interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as initial direct costs paid or incentives received.
The Company elected to include both the lease and non-lease components as a single component and account for it as a lease.
Lease Modification
ASC 842 defines lease modification as a change to the terms and conditions of a contract that results in a change in the scope of or the consideration for a lease. A lease modification can result in either a separate new contract that is accounted for separately from the original contract or a single modified contract.
The Company shall account for a modification to a contract as a separate contract when the modification grants the lessee an additional right of use not included in the original lease and the lease payments increase commensurate with the standalone price for the additional right of use, adjusted for the circumstances of the particular contract. When the Company concludes that a lease modification should be accounted for as a new contract that is separate and apart from the original lease, the new contract should be evaluated for whether it is a lease or contains an embedded lease. If the new contract is a lease or contains an embedded lease, the new lease should be accounted for as any other new lease. The new lease is recorded on the commencement date of the new lease, which is the date the lessee has access to the leased asset.
If a lease modification is not accounted for as a separate contract, the Company should reassess whether the contract contains a lease. If the modified contract is a lease or contains an embedded lease, a lessee should reallocate contract consideration, reassess the lease classification, remeasure the lease liability, and adjust the right-of-use asset.
Research and Development Expense
Research and development expense consists of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities, including related salaries, clinical trials, and related drug and non-drug product costs, contract services, and other outside service expenses. Research and development expenses are charged to operating expenses during the period incurred.
Clinical Trial Accruals
Clinical trial costs are a component of research and development expenses. The Company accrues and expenses for clinical trial activities performed by third parties based upon actual work completed in accordance with agreements established with clinical research organizations and clinical sites. The Company determines the costs to be recorded based upon validation with the external service providers as to the progress or stage of completion of trials or services and the agreed-upon fee to be paid for such services.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).
The Company’s policy typically permits returns if the product is damaged, defective, or otherwise cannot be used when received by the customer if the product has expired. Returns are accepted for products that will expire within three months or that have expired up to one year after their expiration dates. Estimates for expected returns of expired products are based primarily on an ongoing analysis of our historical return patterns.
15
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the core principle of ASC 606 or when there is a transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.
The Company does not adjust the amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if, at contract inception, the expected period between the transfer of promised goods or services and customer payment is one year or less.
The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment costs.
Additionally, the Company elected to record revenue net of sales and other similar taxes.

Transaction price
Transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The transaction price in the contract with GEN includes both fixed and variable considerations.
For the Licensing Transaction, the fixed consideration is measured as the difference between the proceeds from the related share issuance and the fair value of the shares issued. The variable consideration, in the form of royalty, is based on a percentage of the Licensee's revenue from the sale of pharmaceutical products utilizing Crofelemer. For the supply of Crofelemer API, the variable consideration is determined using the expected value of a wide range of possible amounts.
Allocate transaction price
The entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation contained in the contract.

Modifications to Liability-classified Instruments
In accounting for debt modifications and exchange transactions, it is the Company’s policy first to determine whether it qualifies as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) pursuant to the guidance provided in ASC 470-60, Debt—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Debtors (“ASC 470-60”). A debt modification or exchange transaction that is not within the scope of the ASC 470-60 is accounted for under ASC 470-50, Modification and Extinguishments (“ASC 470-50”), to determine if the transaction is a mere modification or an extinguishment.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company has entered amendments to the terms of its royalty interests and purchase agreements. The cumulative impact of these amendments resulted to certain extinguishments and modifications (See Note 7).
Modifications to Equity-classified Instruments
In accounting for modifications of equity-classified warrants, the Company’s policy is to determine the impact by analogy to the share-based compensation guidance of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). The model for a modified share-based payment award that is classified as equity and remains classified in equity after the modification is addressed in ASC 718-20-35-3, Compensation-Stock Compensation—Awards Classified as Equity—Subsequent Measurement. Pursuant to that guidance, the incremental fair value from the modification is recognized as an expense in the statements of operations to the extent the modified instrument has a higher fair value; however, in certain circumstances, such as when an entire class of warrants is modified, the measured increase in fair value may be more appropriately recorded as a deemed dividend, depending upon the nature of the warrant modification.
The Company did not modify any equity-classified warrants for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
In accounting for amendments to preferred stock, the Company’s policy is to measure the impact by analogy to ASC 470-50 in determining if such an amendment is an extinguishment or a modification. If the amendment results in an extinguishment, the Company follows the SEC staff guidance in ASC 260-10-S99-2, Earnings Per Share—Overall—SEC Materials, and ASC 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options. If the amendment results in a modification, the Company follows the model in either ASC 718 or ASC 470-50, depending on the nature of the amendment.
The Company did not modify any equity-classified preferred stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company's Stock Incentive Plan (See Note 12) provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock unit awards. The Company measures stock awards granted to employees, non-employees, and directors at estimated fair value on the date of grant and recognizes the corresponding compensation expense of the awards, net of estimated forfeitures, over the requisite service periods, which correspond to the vesting periods of the awards. If necessary, forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company issues stock awards with only service-based vesting conditions and records compensation expenses for these awards using the straight-line method.
The Company uses its common stock's grant date fair market value to determine the grant date fair value of options granted to employees, non-employees, and directors. The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock options and RSUs granted to its employees and directors based on the estimated fair value of the award on the grant date. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards. The fair value is recognized as an expense, net of estimated forfeitures, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award, on a straight-line basis. The Company believes that the fair value of stock options granted to non-employees is more reliably measured than the fair value of the services received. The determination of the grant date fair value of options using an option pricing model is affected by the Company’s estimated common stock fair value and requires management to make a number of assumptions, including the expected life of the option, the volatility of the underlying stock, the risk-free interest rate and expected dividends.
The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The fair value of employee stock options is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. The fair market value of common stock is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the date of the grant.
19
Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under these principles, tax positions are evaluated in a two-step process. The Company first determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination. If a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it is then measured to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. The tax position is the most significant benefit, with a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
The Company files a consolidated tax return for its related entities.
Foreign Currency Remeasurement and Translation
The functional currency of Napo Therapeutics is the Euro. The Company follows ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830”). ASC 830 requires the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of a foreign operation to be measured using the functional currency of that foreign operation. Exchange gains or losses from remeasuring transactions and monetary accounts in a currency other than the functional currency are included in current earnings or losses.
For certain subsidiaries, translation adjustments result from translating the functional currency of subsidiary financial statements into the U.S. Dollar reporting currency. These translation adjustments are reported separately and accumulated in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss.
Comprehensive Loss
The Company follows ASC 220, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components (revenue, expenses, gains, and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the other comprehensive losses from translation adjustments were $
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock
Basic net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year by the weighted average number of common stock, including potential dilutive shares of common stock assuming the dilutive effect of potential dilutive securities. The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate diluted net loss per share. For years in which the Company reports a net loss, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because their impact would be anti-dilutive to the calculation of net loss per share. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company reports a combined basic net loss and diluted loss per share of common stock. Diluted net loss per share of common stock is the same as basic net loss per share of common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Segment Reporting
In November 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures which amends Topic 280 by enhancing segment reporting by requiring more detailed expense information for each reportable segment. Under the guidance, public entities are required to disclose (1) significant expense categories and amounts as those regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for each reportable segment and how the CODM uses the reported measures of a segment’s profit or loss to assess segment performance and decide how to allocate resources (2) the amount and
20
composition of other segment items included in reported segment profit or loss, and (3) the CODM’s position and title. Additionally, multiple measures of a segment’s profit or loss may be reported, under certain conditions, and single reportable segment entities must apply Topic 280 in its entirety.
The ASU requires all segment profit or loss and assets disclosures to be provided on an annual and interim basis. For each interim period, the total of the reportable segments’ amount for the measures of profit or loss is to be reconciled to the public entity's consolidated income before income taxes and discontinued operations. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted the ASU on its interim period reporting as of and for the period ended September 30, 2024.
Debt with Conversion and Other Options
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2020-06, titled “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” This update simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing the requirement to separate the debt and equity components of such instruments. This ASU has no impact in the Company’s financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Stock Compensation
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profit Interest and Similar Awards. This update clarifies how companies account for profit interest and similar awards given to employees or non-employees, which helps determine whether such award fall under stock compensation or general compensation accounting standards. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods for entities other than public business entities. The Company has elected not to early adopt but will monitor the effects of the additional disclosures.
Joint Venture Formations
In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations—Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement. This update outlines the recognition and initial measurement requirements for these joint ventures. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company has elected not to early adopt but will monitor the impact of the additional disclosures.
3. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under U.S. GAAP and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined under ASC 820 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value which are the following:
The following tables set forth the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Fair Value Option
The Company elected to apply the FVO accounting to certain freestanding instruments and to the entire class of hybrid instruments, including structured notes, of which there are assessed embedded derivatives that would be eligible for bifurcation, to align the measurement attributes of those instruments under U.S. GAAP and to simplify the accounting model applied to these financial instruments.
The valuations of these instruments were predominantly driven by the discount rate and the derivative features embedded within the instruments. The Company determined and performed the valuations of the freestanding and hybrid instruments with the assistance of an independent valuation service provider. The valuation methodology utilized is consistent with the income approach for estimating the fair value of the interest-bearing portion of the instruments and the related derivatives. Cash flows of the financial instruments in their entirety, including the embedded derivatives, are discounted at an appropriate rate for the applicable duration of the instrument. Interests on the interest-bearing portion of the instruments held to maturity and mark-to-market adjustments are aggregated in the change in fair value of freestanding and hybrid financial instruments designated at FVO in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not note any fair value movement on FVO liabilities attributable to any instrument-specific credit risk, which should be recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).

Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may become a party to various legal actions, both inside and outside the U.S., arising in the ordinary course of its business or otherwise. The Company accrues amounts, to the extent they can be reasonably estimated, that the Company believes will result in a probable loss (including, among other things, probable settlement value) to adequately address any liabilities related to legal proceedings and other loss contingencies. A loss or a range of loss is disclosed when it is reasonably possible that a material loss will incur and can be estimated or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss, when material, will exceed the recorded provision. The Company did not have any material accruals for any currently active legal action in its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2024, as the Company could not predict the ultimate outcome of these matters or reasonably estimate the potential exposure.

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, convertible preferred stock, and certain common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. Common stock equivalents are only included when their effect is dilutive. The Company's potential securities, including warrants, convertible preferred series stock and other common stock equivalents, were excluded because their effect is anti-dilutive. For the prior periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to compute basic and diluted shares outstanding.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 which was filed to the SEC on April 1, 2024 and amended on April 17, 2024.
Overview
Jaguar Health, Inc. (“Jaguar” or the “Company”) is a commercial-stage pharmaceuticals company focused on developing novel, plant-based, sustainably derived prescription medicines for people and animals with gastrointestinal (“GI”) distress, including chronic, debilitating diarrhea. Jaguar's wholly owned subsidiary, Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Napo”), focuses on developing and commercializing proprietary plant-based human prescriptions from plants for essential supportive care and management of neglected GI symptoms across multiple complicated disease states. Our crofelemer drug product candidate is the subject of the OnTarget study, a recently completed pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial for prophylaxis of diarrhea in adult cancer patients receiving targeted therapy. The recently completed analysis of the prespecified subgroup of adult patients with breast cancer from OnTarget indicates that crofelemer achieved statistical significance in this subgroup. Patients with breast cancer accounted for nearly 180 of the 287 participants in this unprecedented prophylactic clinical trial in adult patients with solid tumors receiving targeted therapy with or without standard chemotherapy. This data in breast cancer patients has been submitted to a relevant oncology conference by the study's primary investigators, and a full study report for the breast cancer results is expected to be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal. Additional analyses of OnTarget prespecified subgroups are ongoing, and we believe data from additional analyses may result in future submissions to peer-reviewed forums. As announced, the initial top line results from the OnTarget study showed that the multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled pivotal clinical trial did not meet its primary estimand for the prespecified analysis of all tumor types. The subgroup analysis in adult breast cancer patients demonstrates that crofelemer provides clinically meaningful improvement in this patient population, and suggests that crofelemer has the potential to help breast cancer patients to better adhere to their cancer therapies. The subgroup analyses also show that crofelemer provides clinically meaningful improvement in the prespecified subgroup of lung cancer patients.
As part of our strategy to expand our commercial footprint beyond HIV-related supportive care to include cancer-related supportive care, on April 12, 2024, we entered into an exclusive 5-year in-license agreement with United Kingdom-based Venture Life Group PLC (“Venture Life”), an international consumer health company focused on the global self-care market, for Venture Life's 510(k) cleared oral mucositis prescription product, Gelclair, for the U.S. market. Gelclair is a 510(k) cleared prescription product and can be commercialized without any clinical development costs for Jaguar. We initiated the commercial launch in October 2024 for Gelclair. Oral mucositis is among the most common, painful, and debilitating cancer treatment-related side effects. Gelclair is a protective gel with a mechanical action indicated for the management of pain and relief of pain by adhering to the mucosal surface of the mouth, soothing oral lesions of various etiologies, including oral mucositis/stomatitis. Unlike other products for oral mucositis, it is not a numbing agent and does not sting the mouth.
Jaguar is the majority stockholder of Napo Therapeutics S.p.A. (“Napo Therapeutics”), an Italian corporation established by Jaguar in Milan, Italy, in 2021, focusing on expanding crofelemer access in Europe. Napo Therapeutics’ core mission is to provide access to crofelemer in Europe to address significant rare/orphan disease indications, including, initially, two key rare disease target indications: Short bowel syndrome (“SBS”) with intestinal failure and microvillus inclusion disease (“MVID”) an ultrarare congenital diarrheal disorders ("CDD"). Jaguar Animal Health is a tradename of Jaguar Health. Magdalena Biosciences Inc. (“Magdalena”), a joint venture formed by Jaguar and Filament Health Corp. (“Filament”) that emerged from Jaguar’s Entheogen Therapeutics Initiative (“ETI”), is focused on identifying the next generation of plant-based first-in-class agents for treatment of mental health conditions.
Jaguar was founded in San Francisco, California as a Delaware corporation on June 6, 2013 (inception). The Company was a majority-owned subsidiary of Napo until the close of the Company's initial public offering on May 18, 2015. The Company was formed to develop and commercialize first-in-class prescription and non-prescription products for companion animals.
On July 31, 2017, Jaguar completed a merger with Napo pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 31, 2017, by and among Jaguar, Napo, Napo Acquisition Corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Napo's representative (the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon the completion of the merger, Merger Sub merged with and into Napo, with Napo surviving as the wholly owned subsidiary (the “Merger” or “Napo Merger”). Immediately following the merger, Jaguar changed its name from “Jaguar Animal Health, Inc.” to “Jaguar Health, Inc.” Napo now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Jaguar focused on human health, including the ongoing development of crofelemer and commercialization of Mytesi.
Napo’s marketed drug Mytesi (crofelemer 125 mg delayed-release tablets) is a first-in-class oral botanical drug product approved by the FDA for the symptomatic relief of noninfectious diarrhea in adults with HIV/AIDS on antiretroviral therapy. To date, this is the only oral plant-based botanical prescription medicine approved under the FDA’s Botanical Guidance. The Company’s
48
Canalevia-CA1 (crofelemer delayed-release tablets) drug is the first and only oral plant-based prescription product that is FDA conditionally approved to treat chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (“CID”) in dogs.
Crofelemer was granted Orphan Drug Designation (“ODD”) by the FDA in February 2023 for MVID and granted ODD for MVID by the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) in October 2022. Crofelemer was granted ODD for SBS by the EMA in December 2021 and by the FDA in August 2017. In August 2023, Napo’s Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application was activated by the FDA for a new crofelemer powder for oral solution formulation for treating MVID. Our global MVID phase 2 trial for Jaguar is being conducted under this IND. The global phase 2 trial of crofelemer in adults with SBS with intestinal failure is taking place under a Clinical Trial Application (CTA) approved by European health authorities. These phase 2 studies are planned to initiate in the fourth quarter of 2024. We expect that enrollment will continue in 2025 for each of these phase 2 trials, with data expected in the beginning of 2026 for both trials. Additionally, Jaguar is supporting independent investigator-initiated proof-of-concept (“POC”) studies of crofelemer for the rare disease indications of SBS with intestinal failure and MVID, focused on obtaining POC data showing reduction of requirements of parenteral support, including parenteral nutrition and IV fluids. In accordance with the guidelines of specific European Union countries, publications of data from POC trials and Phase 2 trials could support participation in early patient access programs for crofelemer for SBS or MVID, especially for patients with intestinal failure requiring parenteral support. Participation in early access programs, which do not exist in the United States, provides an opportunity for reimbursement while impacting the morbidity and high cost of care for these chronic unmet needs.
Napo Therapeutics is initiating efforts to commence clinical development of crofelemer in SBS patients in support of the Company’s key focus on leveraging the EMA’s accelerated conditional marketing authorization pathway in Europe for these rare diseases. SBS affects approximately 10,000 to 20,000 people in the U.S., according to the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation, and it is estimated that the population of SBS patients in Europe is approximately the same size. Despite limited treatment options, the global SBS market exceeded $568 million in 2019 and is expected to reach $4.6 billion by 2027, according to a report by Vision Research Reports.
Most of the activities of the Company are focused on the development and commercialization of Mytesi, the ongoing clinical development of crofelemer for the prophylaxis of diarrhea in adult patients receiving targeted cancer therapy, the ongoing commercial launch of Gelclair, and our prioritized clinical program centered around investigator-initiated POC trials of crofelemer for SBS and CDD.
In the field of animal health, we are continuing limited activities related to developing and commercializing first-in-class GI products for dogs, dairy calves, and foals.
Crofelemer is a novel, first-in-class anti-secretory antidiarrheal drug that has a normalizing effect on electrolyte and fluid balance in the gut, and this mechanism of action has the potential to benefit multiple disorders that cause GI distress, including diarrhea and abdominal discomfort. Crofelemer is in development for multiple possible follow-on indications, including for our lead Phase 3 program in cancer therapy-related diarrhea (“CTD”), investigating prophylaxis of diarrhea related to targeted therapy with or without standard chemotherapy. Crofelemer delayed-release tablets are also being evaluated in diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (“IBS-D”) and being evaluated for chronic idiopathic/functional diarrhea in investigator-initiated trials.
Crofelemer powder for oral solution is being developed to support orphan or rare disease indications for adults with SBS with intestinal failure and for pediatric MVID patients.
In addition, a second-generation proprietary anti-secretory antidiarrheal drug (“NP-300”) is in development for symptomatic relief and treatment of moderate-to-severe diarrhea, with or without concomitant antimicrobial therapy, from bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections, including Vibrio cholerae, the bacterium that causes cholera. This program is being pursued with the potential targeted incentive from the FDA for a tropical disease priority review voucher.
In January 2023, Jaguar and Filament, with funding from One Small Planet, formed the U.S.-based joint venture Magdalena. Magdalena’s focus is on the development of novel, natural prescription medicines derived from plants for mental health indications, including, initially, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (“ADHD”) in adults. The goal of the collaboration is to extend the botanical drug development capabilities of Jaguar and Filament in order to develop pharmaceutical-grade, standardized drug candidates for mental health disorders and to partner with a potential future licensee to develop and commercialize these novel plant-based drugs. This venture aligns with Jaguar's ETI program and Filament's corporate mission to develop novel, natural prescription medicines from plants. Magdalena will leverage Jaguar's proprietary medicinal plant library and Filament's proprietary drug development technology. Jaguar’s library of 2,300 highly characterized medicinal plants and 3,500 plant extracts, all from firsthand ethnobotanical investigation by Jaguar and members of the ETI Scientific Strategy Team, is a key asset we have generated over 30 years that bridges the knowledge of traditional healers and Western medicine. Magdalena holds an exclusive license to plants and plant extracts in Jaguar's library, not including any sources of crofelemer or NP-300, for specific indications and is in the process of
49
identifying plant candidates in the library that may prove beneficial for addressing indications such as ADHD. Magdalena is approximately 40-percent owned by Jaguar.
As announced, Jaguar recently executed an out-license deal with Magdalena for a botanical drug candidate for possible schizophrenia and psychoses indications and for development with potential corporate partners. Sourced from a medicinal plant that has a long history of use by traditional healers, the drug candidate demonstrates antipsychotic activity and has a mechanism of action distinct from currently FDA-approved therapies for schizophrenia and other mental conditions that present psychotic symptoms. The drug candidate may have the potential to be the first in a new class of plant-based antipsychotic compounds.
In December 2021, we received conditional approval from the FDA to market Canalevia-CA1 (crofelemer delayed-release tablets), our oral plant-based prescription drug and the only available veterinary drug for the treatment of CID in dogs, and Canalevia-CA1 is now available to multiple leading veterinary distributors in the U.S. Canalevia-CA1 is a tablet that is given orally and can be prescribed for home treatment of CID. The FDA conditionally approves Canalevia-CA1 under application number 141-552. Conditional approval allows for product commercialization while Jaguar Animal Health continues to collect the substantial evidence of effectiveness required for full approval. We have received a Minor Use in a Major Species (“MUMS”) designation from the FDA for Canalevia-CA1 to treat CID in dogs. FDA has established a “small number” threshold for minor use in each of the seven major species covered by the MUMS Act. The small number threshold is currently 80,000 for dogs, representing the largest number of dogs that can be affected by a disease or condition over a year and still have the use qualify as a minor use.
We believe Jaguar is poised to realize a number of synergistic, value-adding benefits—an expanded pipeline of potential blockbuster human follow-on indications of crofelemer and a second-generation anti-secretory agent—upon which to build global partnerships. Jaguar, through Napo, holds global unencumbered rights for crofelemer, Mytesi, and Canalevia-CA1. Additionally, several drug product opportunities in Jaguar’s crofelemer pipeline are backed by Phase 2 and POC evidence from human clinical trials.
Financial Operations Overview
On a consolidated basis, we have not yet generated enough revenue to date to achieve break-even or positive cash flows, and we expect to continue to incur significant research and development and other expenses. Our net loss was $29.0 million and $32.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, we had a total stockholders' equity of $13.1 million, an accumulated deficit of $336.6 million, and cash of $13.3 million. We expect to continue to incur losses, and experience increased expenditures for the foreseeable future as we expand our product development activities, seek necessary approvals for our product candidates, conduct species-specific formulation studies for our non-prescription products, establish API manufacturing capabilities and begin additional commercialization activities. Payments of cash compensation to directors under the Director Compensation Program or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 amounted to $109,000 and $218,000, respectively.
Revenues
Our product and license revenue consists of the following:
See “Results of Operations” below for a more detailed discussion on revenues.
50
Costs of Product Revenue
The cost of revenue consists of direct drug substance and drug product materials expenses, direct labor, distribution fees, royalties, and other related expenses associated with the sale of our products.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses consist primarily of clinical and contract manufacturing, personnel and related benefits, stock-based compensation, employee travel, and reforestation expenses. Clinical and contract manufacturing expenses consist primarily of costs for stability, safety, and efficacy studies and manufacturing startup at an outsourced API provider in Italy. It also includes expenses with a third-party provider for transferring the Mytesi manufacturing process and the related feasibility and validation activities.
We typically use our employee and infrastructure resources across multiple development programs. We track outsourced development costs by prescription drug product candidate and non-prescription product, and we track personnel or other internal costs related to the development of specific programs or development compounds.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company has incurred approximately $4.8 million on its primary R&D projects. The timing and amount of our research and development expenses will depend largely upon the outcomes of current and future trials for our prescription drug product candidates, as well as the related regulatory requirements, the outcomes of current and future species-specific formulation studies for our non-prescription products, manufacturing costs and any costs associated with the advancement of our line extension programs. We cannot determine with certainty the duration and completion costs of the current or future development activities. The total project costs remain uncertain due to regulatory and clinical trial complexities. Management continues to monitor timelines closely to address any risks that could impact timely project completion and future operations.
The duration, costs, and timing of trials, formulation studies, and development of our prescription drug and non-prescription products will depend on a variety of factors, including:
A change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of a prescription drug product candidate or non-prescription product could mean a significant change in the costs and timing associated with our development activities.
We expect research and development expenses to decrease with the Phase 3 OnTarget Trial completion in the first half of 2025; though we expect start-up costs associated with our clinical trials for other indications.
Materials expense and tree planting refers to the Company's ongoing environmental costs related to the sustainable sourcing of crofelemer and reforestation activities in the Amazon Rainforest. These expenses include capital investments in seedling nurseries and tree planting. As of September 30, 2024, no significant non-recurring environmental remediation costs are anticipated. The Company continues to monitor its environmental impact and may incur future costs as needed.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses consist of personnel and related benefits, stock-based compensation, direct sales and marketing, employee travel, and management consulting expenses. We currently incur sales and marketing expenses to promote Mytesi and GelClair. We do not have significant marketing or promotional expenses related to Canalevia and Neonorm Calf or Neonorm Foal for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase going forward as we focus on expanding our market access activities and commercial partnerships to develop follow-on indications of Mytesi, GelClair and crofelemer.
51
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of personnel and related benefits expenses, stock-based compensation expenses, employee travel expenses, legal and accounting fees, rent and facilities expenses, and management consulting expenses.
In the near term, we expect general and administrative expenses to remain flat as we focus on our pipeline development and market access expansion. This will include efforts to grow the business.
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists primarily of non-cash and cash interest costs related to our borrowings.
Change in Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Hybrid Instrument Designated at FVO
Change in fair value of financial instruments and hybrid instruments designated at FVO consists of gain or loss recognized related to fair values changes of our instruments designated at FVO.
Gain on Debt Extinguishment
Gain on debt extinguishment consists of gain incurred related to the exchanges resulting from the extinguishment of our borrowings.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
Preparing condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires using estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Critical accounting policies are those accounting policies that may be material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and that have a material impact on financial condition or operating performance. While we base our estimates and judgments on our experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Note 2 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements describes our significant accounting policies. Our critical accounting policies and estimates were described in Part II, Item 7, Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Potential Material Effects of Trends, Events, and Uncertainties
Inflation Reduction Act
The Inflation Reduction Act, effective January 1, 2023, introduces several provisions that may impact the Company's operations and financial results. While the full effects of the Act on future results are uncertain, management acknowledges potential changes in market conditions, tax incentives, and regulatory requirements that could arise as a result of this legislation. Management is currently unable to predict the likelihood or timing of these changes and their specific implications for the Company’s financial performance. The pharmaceutical industry may face impacts from new pricing regulations and changes in tax incentives for research and development.
Management will continue to monitor developments closely and assess any potential impacts. However, at this time, it is not possible to determine a range of likely effects on future results. Should circumstances warrant, the Company will disclose any material impacts as they become known.
Lease Commitments
The Company's lease obligations constitute a significant portion of its operating expenses and are anticipated to affect future cash flows. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has committed to multiple lease agreements, including a primary office lease in San Francisco that commenced on September 1, 2021, and extends until February 28, 2025. This lease includes a structured rent increase, beginning at $42,000 per month and escalating to $45,000 by the final year.
52
Additionally, the Company has entered into a lease for Suite 400, which commenced on September 1, 2023, and extends through August 31, 2030, with initial monthly rent set at $18,000. The lease agreements also incorporate provisions for periodic rent increases tied to inflation, which may introduce variability in future cash flows.
Given these escalating lease commitments, particularly the planned increases in base rent and the uncertainties surrounding the potential exercise of extension options, the Company is focused on maintaining effective liquidity management strategies to address potential cash flow impacts. Moreover, fluctuations in occupancy rates or operational changes may affect the utilization of leased spaces, thereby influencing amortization expenses associated with right-of-use assets.
The Company regularly evaluates its lease portfolio and market conditions to make informed decisions regarding future lease renewals or new lease agreements. Effective management of these lease liabilities will be essential for ensuring operational flexibility and financial stability in the upcoming years.

Our gross product revenues were $11.0 million and $10.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These periods reflect revenue from the sale of our human drug Mytesi and our animal products branded as Canalevia-CA1, Neonorm Calf and Neonorm Foal.
The increase in gross product revenue of $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to the increase in the volume of sales of Mytesi and Canalevia, an increase of $970,000 and $24,000, respectively. The Company launched Gelclair during the quarter. However, revenue recognition will commence in the following quarters, in alignment with the timing of product sales and revenue recognition principles.

The decrease in G&A expenses of $312,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 was largely due to:
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by $5.8 million from $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to $341,000 in the same period in 2024, primarily due to changes in accounting of certain debt instruments to FVO. The lower interest expense was offset by a higher loss in change in fair value of freestanding and hybrid financial instruments designated at FVO.
56
Change in Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Hybrid Instrument Designated at FVO
The fair value of financial instrument and hybrid instrument designated at FVO decreased by 3.6 million, from a loss of $3.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to a loss of $6.9 million in the same period in 2024 primarily due to fair value adjustments in liability classified warrants and notes payable designated at FVO.
Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
Gain on extinguishment of debt decreased by $2.5 million from $3.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to $1.2 million in the same period in 2024 primarily due to significant modifications of royalty interest agreements resulting to extinguishment accounting.
Segment Data
The Company has two reportable segments: animal health and human health. The animal health segment develops and commercializes products for animals, while the human health segment focuses on human products, specifically Mytesi, which is approved for the symptomatic relief of non-infectious diarrhea in adults with HIV/AIDS on antiretroviral therapy.

Our gross product revenues were $4.0 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These periods reflect revenue from the sale of our human drug Mytesi and our animal products branded as Canalevia-CA1, Neonorm Calf and Neonorm Foal.
The increase in gross product revenue of $330,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period 2023 was primarily due to the increase in the volume of sales of Mytesi and Canalevia, an increase of $266,000 and $25,000, respectively. The Company launched Gelclair during the quarter. However, revenue recognition will commence in the following quarters, in alignment with the timing of product sales and revenue recognition principles.

The change in G&A expenses of $243,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 was due primarily to:
60
Interest Income (Expense)
Interest expense decreased by $662,000, from $500,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, to a $162,000 net interest income for the same period in 2024, primarily due to changing the accounting of certain debt instruments to FVO. The lower interest expense was offset by a higher loss in a change in the fair value of financial instruments and hybrid instruments designated at FVO.
Change in Fair Value of Freestanding and Hybrid Financial Instruments Designated at FVO
Change in fair value of financial instrument and hybrid instrument designated at FVO decreased $845,000 from a loss of $2.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, to a loss of $3.1 million for the same period in 2024 primarily due to fair value adjustments in liability classified warrants and notes payable designated at FVO.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
We have incurred net losses since our inception. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we had net losses of $29.0 million and $32.6 million, respectively. We expect to incur additional losses in the near-term future due to significant expenses incurred related to the research and development phase. At September 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $336.6 million. We continue our efforts to develop our products and continue the development of our pipeline in the near term and to date, we have generated only limited revenues.
As of September 30, 2024, we had cash of $13.3 million. While we are actively exploring various strategies to optimize our cash flows, we recognize that our current capital resources will be sufficient to fund our operating plan for at least one year from the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
We have funded our operations primarily through issuing debt and equity securities, in addition to selling our commercial products. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, were generated from the issuance of an aggregate of 6,925,606 shares of common stock under the ATM Agreement for total net proceeds of approximately $27.8 million, and issuance of an aggregate 277,778 common in exchange of License Agreement for total net proceeds of $1.2 million.
We expect our expenditures will continue to increase as we continue our efforts to develop our products and continue the development of our pipeline in the near term. We may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. We may also not be successful in entering into partnerships that include payment of upfront licensing fees for our products and product candidates for markets outside the United States, where appropriate. If we do not generate upfront fees from any anticipated arrangements, it would have a negative effect on our operating plan. We still plan to finance our operations and capital funding needs through equity and debt financing as well as revenue from future product sales. However, there can be no assurance that additional funding will be available to us on acceptable terms on a timely basis, if at all, or that we will generate sufficient cash from operations to fund operating needs or ultimately achieve profitability adequately. If we are unable to obtain an adequate level of financing needed for the long-term development and commercialization of our products, we will need to curtail planned activities and reduce costs. Doing so will likely have an adverse effect on our ability to execute on our business plan.
Liquidity Management
As of September 30, 2024, the Company is actively monitoring trends in its capital resources, recognizing favorable and unfavorable developments that may materially impact its financial position. The Company has experienced a slight increase in debt levels due to recent financing activities intended to support operational growth. In contrast, equity levels remain stable, though future fundraising efforts may affect the capital structure.
The Company expects changes in the mix of capital resources, particularly concerning the relative costs of debt versus equity financing. Current market conditions indicate a trend of rising interest rates, which may increase the cost of future debt issuances.
Furthermore, the Company recognizes challenges related to liquidity. It has incurred recurring operating losses and negative cash flows, which raises uncertainties about its future liquidity. The ability to meet current obligations relies on successful ongoing development efforts and securing additional financing.
61
While the Company plans to finance its operations through equity and/or debt financing, collaboration arrangements, and revenue from future product sales, it currently believes that existing cash balances may not be sufficient to fund its operating plan in the next years. There can be no assurance that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms.
To address these liquidity concerns, the Company is committed to pursuing all available avenues for financing and will continuously assess its capital structure and operational needs to ensure financial stability.
Comparison of Operating Income and Cash Flow
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company’s operating cash flows showed a significant improvement over the prior period, primarily due to reductions in cash outflows associated with operating expenses. Operating income, while still negative at a loss of $29.0 million, improved by $3.6 million, or 11%, over the prior period due to a decrease in total operating expenses. This reflects the Company's efforts in cost containment. However, while operating cash flows benefited from these reductions, the ongoing significant variation between operating income and operating cash flows, highlights challenges in achieving cash flow positivity due to high non-cash charges, such as depreciation and stock-based compensation, alongside increased working capital needs to support expanded operations. This variation highlights the Company’s strategic focus on managing liquidity to maintain operational stability and pursue growth opportunities effectively.
Analysis of Cost of Capital Resources
Changes in market conditions may impact our cost of capital resources. Rising interest rates could increase our cost of debt, while seeking equity financing may lead to higher required returns on equity due to potential dilution. We will actively monitor these factors as part of our financial strategy.

Cash Used in Operating Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities of $21.6 million resulted from our net comprehensive loss of $29.1 million, adjusted by the change in fair value of financial instrument and hybrid instrument designated at FVO of $6.9 million, depreciation and amortization expenses of $1.4 million, stock-based compensation of $1.3 million, amortization of operating lease right-of-use asset of $343,000, amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs of $274,000, equity in a net loss in the joint venture of $78,000, shares issued in exchange of services $9,000 and partly offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.2 million and gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.2 million.
Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $4.2 million from the prior year, indicating improved efficiency. However, cash flows remain insufficient to meet ongoing requirements, underscoring the Company's reliance on alternative funding sources.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities of $25.8 million resulted from our net comprehensive loss of $32.7 million adjusted by the change in fair value of financial instrument and hybrid instrument designated at FVO of $3.4 million, amortization of debt discounts and debt issuance costs of $11.5 million, stock-based compensation of $1.5 million, depreciation and amortization expenses of $1.5 million, amortization of operating lease right-of-use asset of $286,000, shares issued in exchange of services of $166,000, equity in a net loss in the joint venture of $42,000, gain on extinguishment of debt of $3.7 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $7.8 million.
62
Cash Used in Investing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in investing activities of $16,000 consisted of a $16,000 purchase of equipment.
Cash outflows for investing activities were minimal at $16,000 in 2024, dedicated solely to equipment purchases. This reflects management's commitment to maintaining liquidity, as there were no cash outflows for investing activities in the prior year.
No cash is used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities of $28.4 million consisted of $27.8 million in net proceeds from shares issued in an At the Market offering, $1.2 million proceeds from the issuance of common shares in exchange of License Agreement, offset by $437,000 repayment of insurance financing, and $100,000 in principal payments of the notes payable.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased to $28.4 million in 2024, primarily from an ATM offering and share issuance related to licensing agreement. This trend underscores the Company's ongoing necessity to leverage external financing to address cash flow shortfalls from operations.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities of $23.6 million consisted of $20.8 million in net proceeds from shares issued in an At the Market offering, $1.2 million net proceeds from issuance of warrants in PIPE financing, $611,000 net proceeds from issuance of preferred shares in PIPE financing and noncontrolling interest of $1.2 million, offset by $293,000 repayment of insurance financing, and $50,000 in principal payments of the notes payable.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, Chief Executive Officer, and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 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 a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2024.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(c) under the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control in future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2024, using the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (“2013 Framework”) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on our evaluation using those criteria, our management has concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, our internal control over financial
63
reporting was effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP for the reasons discussed above.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm on our internal control over financial reporting because we are a smaller reporting company and are not subject to auditor attestation requirements under applicable SEC rules.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
64
PART II. — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business activities. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have a material adverse effect on us due to defense and settlement costs, diversion of our management resources, and other factors. We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following discussion of risk factors contains forward-looking statements. These risk factors may be important to understanding other statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, before making a decision to invest in our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we presently deem less significant may also impair our business operations. If any of the events or circumstances described in the following risk factors actually occur, our business, operating results, financial condition, cash flows, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.
The business, financial condition, and operating results of the Company can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause the Company’s actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition and operating results. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results, and stock price.
Because of the following factors and other factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and operating results, past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods.
Our royalty interests require us to make minimum royalty payments, even if we do not sell sufficient products to cover such.
Since March 2020, we have sold royalty interests to certain lenders that entitle such lenders to receive future royalties on sales of our products. These royalty interests require us to make minimum royalty payments beginning in 2021, even if we do not sell a sufficient amount of product to cover such payments, which may strain our cash resources. Total minimum royalty payments, approximately totaling $36.0 million, will commence in 2026.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On July 15, 2024, the Company entered into a privately negotiated exchange agreement with a holder of royalty interest in the Company pursuant to which the Company issued 455,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 to such holder in exchange for a $1,851,850 reduction in the outstanding balance of the royalty interest held by such holder.
On July 18, 2024, the Company entered into a privately negotiated exchange agreement with Iliad pursuant to which the Company issued 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 to Iliad in exchange for a $819,600 reduction in the outstanding balance of the royalty interest dated October 8, 2020.
The shares of common stock that were issued in the exchange transactions described above were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.
Other than equity securities issued in transactions disclosed above and on our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 10, 2024, and July 16, 2024, there were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the period.
