CORMEDIX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Organization, Business and Basis of Presentation:
Organization and Business
CorMedix Inc. (“CorMedix”
or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 28, 2006 . The Company is a biopharmaceutical company focused
on developing and commercializing therapeutic products for life-threatening diseases and conditions.
The Company’s primary
focus is commercializing its lead product, DefenCath ® (taurolidine and heparin) in the United States, or U.S. The name
DefenCath is the U.S. proprietary name approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA. CorMedix launched the product commercially
in April 2024 in the inpatient setting and July 2024 in the outpatient hemodialysis setting.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, for interim financial
information and with the instructions for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting
of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to fairly state the interim results. Interim operating results are not necessarily
indicative of results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025, or for any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of the Company
which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March
25, 2025. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited financial statements
included in such Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Liquidity
and Uncertainties:
Liquidity and Uncertainties
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in conformity with GAAP which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. During the fourth quarter 2024 and the first
quarter 2025, the Company generated net income and net cash from operating activities from the product sales of DefenCath. The Company’s
future profitability will depend on the continued successful commercialization of DefenCath. The Company’s current commercial and
development expenses for DefenCath and its other operating requirements are expected to be funded for at least twelve months from the
issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q by the Company’s existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at March
31, 2025, as well as the additional expected liquidity from commercial operations. Also, as of March 31, 2025, approximately $ 23.2 million
of the Company’s common stock remains available for sale under the 2024 ATM program, with $ 100,000,000 of remaining capacity under
the 2024 Shelf Registration Statement for the issuance of Company securities (see Note 6).
The Company’s operations are subject to other factors that can
affect its operating results and cash flows over the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements. Such factors
include, but are not limited to: the ability to continue to successfully market DefenCath and generate necessary revenue in the time periods
required; ability to continue to manufacture successfully with our third party contract manufacturers; competition from other products
being sold or developed by other companies; the price of, and reimbursement environment for, the Company’s product; and the Company’s
ability to negotiate favorable licensing or other manufacturing and marketing agreements for its products.

CORMEDIX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other assumptions
that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses reported for
each of the periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions. The more significant areas in which estimates and the exercise
of judgment relate include; variable consideration for product returns, realization of receivables, valuation of inventory, share-based
payment grant date valuation, deferred tax asset valuation changes and contingent liability recognition and disclosures. Estimates are
based on historical experience and other assumptions that are considered appropriate in the circumstances. They are continuously reviewed
but may vary from the actuals.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications
were made to the prior year’s amounts to conform to the 2025 presentation.
Basis of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowances
The Company recognizes an
allowance that reflects a current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of a financial asset, including trade
receivables. The allowance for credit losses reflects the best estimate of expected credit losses of the accounts receivable portfolio
determined on the basis of current information, forecasts of future economic conditions, industry knowledge and to some extent our historical
experience. The Company determines its allowance methodology by pooling receivable balances at the customer level. The Company considers
various factors, including individual credit risk associated with each customer, the current and future condition of the general economy
and industry knowledge. These credit risk factors are monitored on a quarterly basis and updated as necessary. Also, to the extent any
individual debtor is identified whose credit quality has deteriorated, the Company establishes allowances based on the individual risk
characteristics of such customer. The Company makes concerted efforts to collect all outstanding balances due, however account balances
are charged off against the allowance when management believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The Company does not
have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. Allowances recorded for credit losses as of March 31, 2025 were approximately
$ 0.1 million, there were no write-offs or recoveries during the three months ended March, 31, 2025.
Concentrations
The major customers of the
Company are defined as those constituting greater than 10% of its total revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company
had two customers that accounted for 78 % and 14 % of its total net revenue of $ 39.1 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, these
two customers accounted for 83 % and 11% of the accounts receivable, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, these two customers accounted
for 87 % and 12 % of the accounts receivable, respectively.

CORMEDIX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
The Company currently has
one FDA approved source for each of our two key active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”) for DefenCath, taurolidine and
heparin sodium, respectively. With regards to taurolidine, the Company has a drug master file (“DMF”) filed with the FDA.
There is a master commercial supply agreement between a third-party manufacturer which has been in place since August 2018. In addition,
the Company is working with its existing manufacture to source sufficient quantities of taurolidine API to cover at least 24 months of
potential future demand. With respect to heparin sodium API, the Company has identified an alternate third-party supplier and may qualify
such supplier under the DefenCath NDA over the next twelve months.
The Company received FDA approval
of DefenCath with finished dosage production from its European based contract manufacturing organization (“CMO”) Rovi Pharma
Industrial Services. The Company believes this CMO has adequate capacity to produce the volumes needed to meet near-term projected demand
for the commercial launch of DefenCath. The Company also qualified Siegfried Hameln as an alternate finished dosage manufacturing site.
Financial Instruments
Financial instruments that
potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments
and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit and other interest-bearing accounts, the
balances of which, may exceed federally insured limits.
The following table is the
reconciliation of the accounting standard that modifies certain aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of
financial instruments as shown on the Company’s consolidated statement of cash flows:

The appropriate classification
of marketable securities is determined at the time of purchase and reevaluated as of each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable
debt classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated
by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value that are considered temporary
are reported in other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts and interest and dividends
earned are included in other income (expense). The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments,
including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost. There were no deemed permanent impairments at March 31, 2025
or December 31, 2024.

Fair Value Measurements
In accordance with Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825, Financial Instruments, disclosures of fair value information about financial instruments
is required, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The Company’s
financial instruments recorded in the consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment securities,
accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying value of certain financial instruments, primarily cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair values based upon the short-term nature of
their maturity dates.
The Company categorizes its
financial instruments into a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair
value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest
priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the
category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial
assets recorded at fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized as follows:
●
Level 1 inputs—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
●
Level 2 inputs— Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs).
●
Level 3 inputs—Unobservable inputs
for the asset or liability, which are supported by little or no market activity and are valued based on management’s estimates
of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Inventories
The Company engages third
parties to manufacture and package inventory held for sale and warehouse such goods until packaged for final distribution and sale. Costs
related to the manufacturing of DefenCath incurred prior to FDA approval to support the preparation for commercial launch of its product
were expensed as research and development expenses (R&D) as incurred. Upon FDA approval, costs related to the manufacturing of inventory
are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis.
Inventory is valued utilizing
the standard cost method. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on hand and writes down to its net realizable value any inventory
that it believes to be impaired. Management considers forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, competitiveness of product
offering and sales volume assumptions, market conditions and product life cycle and expiration dating when determining net realizable
value adjustments. Once inventory is written down and a new cost basis is established, it is not written back up if demand increases.
The Company has not experienced any write-downs for any items listed above during the three months ended March 31, 2025, or through the
filing of this Form 10-Q.
Inventories consist of raw
materials (including labeling and packaging), work-in-process, and finished goods for DefenCath. Inventories consist of the following:

License Agreement
The Company’s rights
under the License and Assignment Agreement with ND Partners, LLP are capitalized and stated at cost. The Company amortizes the intangible
asset utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the intangible asset based on the Company’s assessment
of various factors impacting estimated useful lives and cash flows of the acquired rights. Such factors include the launch date of DefenCath,
the strength of the intellectual property protection of DefenCath and associated technology and various other competitive, developmental
and regulatory considerations, and contractual terms. See Note 5 – Commitments and Contingencies for further discussion.

Leases
The Company determines if
an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current
portion of operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities, net of current portion, on the condensed consolidated balance
sheets (see Note 7).
Operating lease ROU assets
and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at
commencement date. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based
on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company’s lease terms
may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense
for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company has elected, as
an accounting policy, not to apply the recognition requirements in ASC 842, Accounting for Leases , to short-term leases. Short-term
leases are leases that have a term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that
the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company recognizes the lease payments for short-term leases on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.
The Company has also elected,
as a practical expedient, by underlying class of asset, not to separate lease components from non-lease components and, instead, account
for them as a single component.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue
from the sale of its product, DefenCath, in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC
606”). The provisions of ASC 606 require the following steps to determine revenue recognition: (1) identify the contract(s) with
a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction
price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company recognizes revenue
when it believes that it is probable that it will collect the consideration to which it is entitled in exchange for the goods or services
that will be transferred to the customer. The Company’s product revenue is recognized at a point in time when the performance obligation
is satisfied by transferring control of the promised goods or services to a customer. In accordance with the Company’s contracts
with customers, control of the product is transferred upon the conveyance of title, which occurs when the product is received by a customer.
The Company’s customers are located in the United States and consist primarily of outpatient service providers and wholesale distributors.
Variable Consideration
The Company includes an estimate
of variable consideration in its transaction price at the time of sale when control of the product transfers to the customer. Variable
consideration includes:
●
Distribution service fees;
●
Prompt pay and other discounts;
●
Product returns;
●
Chargebacks;
●
Rebates;
●
Volume incentive rebates;
10
CORMEDIX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (continued)
The Company assesses
whether or not an estimate of variable consideration is constrained based on the probability that a significant reversal in the amount
of cumulative revenue may occur in the future when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may vary from our estimates. If actual results in the future vary from estimates,
the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect product sales and earnings in the period such variances become known.
The specific considerations
that the Company uses in estimating these amounts related to variable considerations are as follows:
Distribution services fees –
The Company pays distribution service fees primarily to its wholesale distributors. The Company reserves these fees based on actual net
sales and the contractual fee rates negotiated with the customers in the distribution channel. The Company records these fees as contra
accounts receivable on the balance sheet.
Prompt pay and other discounts
– The Company provides customers with prompt pay discounts. The specific prompt pay terms vary by customer and are contractually
fixed. Prompt pay discounts are expected to be taken by the Company’s customers, so an estimate of the discount is recorded at the
time of sale based on the invoice price. Prompt pay discount estimates are recorded as contra accounts receivable on the balance sheet.
Product returns –
Customers have the right to return product that is within six months or less of the labeled expiration date or that is past the expiration
date by no more than six months. The Company determines its estimate for product returns based on: (i) data provided to the Company by
its distributors (including weekly reporting of distributors’ sales and inventory held by distributors that provided the Company
with visibility into the distribution channel in order to determine what quantities were sold to both inpatient and outpatient facilities),
and (ii) the estimated remaining shelf life of DefenCath held by the wholesale distributors and outpatient service providers. Since the
returns primarily consist of expired and short dated products that will not be resold, the Company does not record a return asset for
the right to recover the goods returned by the customer at the time of the initial sale (when recognition of revenue is deferred due to
the anticipated return). Estimated product returns are recorded as accrued expenses on the balance sheet.
Chargebacks – Certain
covered entities, group purchasing organizations (“GPO”) and government entities will be able to purchase the product at a
price discounted below wholesaler acquisition cost (“WAC”). The difference between the GPO, government or covered entity purchase
price and the wholesale distributor purchase price of WAC will be charged back to the Company. The Company estimates the amount in chargebacks
based on the expected number of claims and related cost that is associated with the revenue being recognized for product that remains
in the distribution channel at the end of each reporting period. Estimated chargebacks are recorded as contra accounts receivable on the
balance sheet.
Rebates – The Company
is or may become subject to negotiated discount obligations to different GPO, direct purchasers, other commercial organizations or government
programs. The rebate amounts for these programs are determined by statutory requirements or contractual arrangements. Rebates are owed
after the product has been dispensed to an end user and the Company has been invoiced. Rebates are typically invoiced in arrears. The
Company’s liability for these rebates consists of invoices received for claims from prior quarters that have not been paid or for
which an invoice has not yet been received, estimates of claims for the current quarter based on expected product utilization, and estimated
future claims that will be made for product that has been recognized as revenue, but remains in the distribution channel at the end of
each reporting period. Rebate estimates are recorded as accrued expenses on the balance sheet.
Volume Incentive Rebates –
The Company is subject to negotiated volume incentive rebates with certain direct and indirect customers (primarily outpatient service
providers). Rebates are owed based on predetermined volume levels and payable per the terms in the customer contracts. The Company estimates
and records volume incentive rebates based on anticipated purchase volume with specific customers based on communications with the customer.
Volume incentive rebates are recorded as accrued expenses on the balance sheet.

Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic income (loss) per common
share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts
to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the
earnings of the Company. The Company calculates dilutive potential common shares using the treasury stock method for stock options and
restricted units, which assumes the Company will use the proceeds from the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units
to repurchase shares of common stock to hold in its treasury stock reserves. The Company calculates dilutive potential common shares using
the if-converted method for preferred stock, which assumes the preferred stock is converted at the beginning of the period (or at time
of issuance, if later).
The Company’s outstanding
shares of Series E preferred stock entitle the holders to receive dividends on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of
common stock. As a result, the Series E preferred stock meet the definition of participating securities requiring the application of the
two-class method. Under the two-class method, earnings available to common shareholders, including both distributed and undistributed
earnings, are allocated to each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared and participating rights
in undistributed earnings, which may cause diluted earnings per share to be more dilutive than the calculation using the treasury stock
method. No loss has been allocated to these participating securities since they do not have contractual obligations that require participation
in the Company’s losses.

Stock-Based Compensation
Stock option-based compensation
cost is measured at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for options
with service conditions. Restricted stock unit (“RSU”) compensation is based upon the fair value of the Company’s common
stock on the date of the grant for RSU’s that vest upon service or performance conditions. Performance stock units (“PSU’s”)
which vest upon market conditions, utilize a Monte-Carlo simulation model. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the
requisite service period on a straight-line basis. See Note 6.
Research and Development
Research and development costs
are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development include fees associated with operational consultants, contract clinical research
organizations, contract manufacturing organizations, clinical site fees, contract laboratory research organizations, contract central
testing laboratories, licensing activities, and allocated executive, human resources and facilities expenses. The Company accrues for
costs incurred as the services are being provided by monitoring the status of the trial and the invoices received from its external service
providers. As actual costs become known, the Company adjusts its accruals in the period when actual costs become known. Costs related
to the acquisition of technology rights and patents for which development work is still in process are charged to operations as incurred
and considered a component of research and development expense.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the
asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences
of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases, Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized,
The provision for income taxes during interim reporting
periods is computed by applying an estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income, adjusted for discrete items occurring within
the quarter. The estimated annual effective tax rate is updated quarterly based on changes in the forecast of full-year income and tax
expense.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March
31, 2024, the Company’s provision for income taxes and effective tax rate were zero .
Based on consideration of all available evidence, the Company has a
full valuation allowance against all of the deferred tax assets as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. We will continue to maintain
a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets until there is sufficient positive evidence to support the reversal of all or some
portion of these allowances. A release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a
corresponding income tax benefit in the period the release is recorded. The amount of the valuation allowance release will be determined
based on the available sources of future taxable income as of the period in which the release is recorded.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting
pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that the
Company adopts as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed below, the Company does not believe the adoption of recently

In re CorMedix Inc. Securities Litigation, Case No. 2:21-cv-14020
(D.N.J.)
On October 13, 2021, the United
States District Court for the District of New Jersey consolidated into In re CorMedix Inc. Securities Litigation, Case No. 2:21-cv 14020-JXN-CLW,
two putative class action lawsuits filed on or about July 22, 2021 and September 13, 2021, respectively, and appointed lead counsel and
lead plaintiff, a purported stockholder of the Company. The lead plaintiff filed a consolidated amended class action complaint on December
14, 2021, alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, along with Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and Sections
11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. On October 10, 2022, the lead plaintiff filed a second amended consolidated complaint that superseded
the original complaints in In re CorMedix Securities Litigation. On March 21, 2024, the court denied Defendant’s motion to dismiss
without prejudice and granted lead plaintiff leave to amend the complaint. On April 22, 2024, lead plaintiff filed a third amended consolidated
complaint that superseded the second amended consolidated complaint. In the third amended complaint, the lead plaintiff seeks to represent
a class of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired CorMedix securities between October 16, 2019 and August 8, 2022, inclusive.
The third amended complaint names as defendants the Company and six (6) current and former officers of CorMedix, namely Khoso Baluch,
Robert Cook, Matthew David, Phoebe Mounts, John L. Armstrong, and Joseph Todisco (the “Officer Defendants” and collectively
with CorMedix, the “CorMedix Defendants”). The third amended complaint alleges that the CorMedix Defendants violated Section
10(b) of the Exchange Act (and Rule 10b-5) and that the Officer Defendants violated Section 20(a). In general, the purported bases for
these claims are allegedly false and misleading statements and omissions related to the NDA submissions to the FDA for DefenCath, subsequent
complete response letters, as well as communications from the FDA related and directed to the Company’s contract manufacturing organization
and heparin supplier. The Company intends to vigorously contest such claims. The Company filed its motion to dismiss the third amended

License and Assignment Agreement
In 2008, the Company entered
into a License and Assignment Agreement (the ND License Agreement) with ND Partners, LLP (NDP). Pursuant to the ND License Agreement,
NDP granted the Company exclusive, worldwide licenses for certain antimicrobial catheter lock solutions, processes for treating and inhibiting
infections, a biocidal lock system and a taurolidine delivery apparatus, and the corresponding United States and foreign patents and applications
(the NDP Technology). As consideration in part for the rights to the NDP Technology, upon execution of the ND License Agreement, the Company
paid NDP an initial licensing fee of $ 325,000 and granted NDP a 5 % equity interest in the Company, consisting of 7,996 shares of the Company’s
common stock.
Under the ND License Agreement,
the Company is required to make cash and equity payments to NDP upon the achievement of certain milestones. Under the ND License Agreement,
the maximum aggregate amount of cash payments due upon achievement of applicable milestones was $ 2,500,000 , with the balance being $ 2,000,000
as of December 31, 2024. The initial licensing fee of $ 325,000 , the fair value of the 5 % equity interest ( 7,996 shares of the Company’s
common stock) and an additional $ 500,000 , as a result of the achievement of one milestone, were recognized on the Company’s statement
of operations in R&D in prior periods, as the related milestones were achieved by the Company prior to the FDA approval. During the
year ended December 31, 2024, the Company determined it was probable that the net sales milestones would be achieved in future periods
and, as a result, the Company recorded a license intangible asset of $ 2,000,000 and a license agreement liability of $ 2,000,000 , which
was included within accrued expenses in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025. In May 2025, the Company
paid the final milestone payments in the aggregate amount of $ 2,000,000 .
Beginning in the second quarter
of 2024, the license intangible asset is amortized as cost of goods sold over its estimated economic life of approximately 10 years. The
amortization start period correlates with the product launch of DefenCath and the first period in which revenue will be recognized. Amortization
expense of approximately $ 52,000 was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The ND License Agreement will
expire on a country-by-country basis upon the earlier of (i) the expiration of the last patent claim under the ND License Agreement in
a given country, or (ii) the payment of all milestone payments. Upon the expiration of the ND License Agreement in each country, we will
have an irrevocable, perpetual, fully paid-up, royalty-free exclusive license to the NDP Technology in such country. The ND License Agreement
also may be terminated by NDP if the Company materially breaches or defaults under the ND License Agreement and that breach is not cured
within 60 days following the delivery of written notice to the Company, or by the Company on a country-by-country basis upon 60 days prior
written notice in the event the Company’s Board determines not to proceed with the development of the NDP Technology. If the ND
License Agreement is terminated by either party, the Company’s rights to the NDP Technology will revert back to NDP.
Other Commitments
In December 2024, we entered
into a three-year agreement with Syneos Health Commercial Services, LLC (“Syneos”) under which Syneos will provide a dedicated
inpatient field sales force that will exclusively promote DefenCath to hospitals and health systems. We have paid an up-front implementation
and are obligated to pay a fixed monthly fee. Upon the twelve-month anniversary of the deployment date, expected to be in the second
quarter of 2026, the agreement is cancelable upon 60 day’s written notice. As of March 31, 2025, the minimum amount committed under
this agreement totals $ 9.1 million.
We entered into a seven-year
operating lease agreement in March 2020 for an office space at 300 Connell Drive, Berkeley Heights, New Jersey 07922. The lease agreement,
with a monthly average cost of approximately $ 17,000 , commenced on September 16, 2020.
Note 6 - Stockholders’ Equity:
Common Stock
On May 9, 2024, the Company
filed a shelf registration statement (the “2024 Shelf Registration Statement”) for the issuance of up to $ 150,000,000 of Company
securities. Also on May 9, 2024, the Company entered into an At-The-Market Issuance Sales Agreement with Leerink Partners LLC, as sales
agent, pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, an aggregate of up to $ 50,000,000 of its common stock through the sales
agents under the 2024 Shelf Registration Statement, subject to limitations imposed by the Company and subject to the sales agent’s
acceptance (the “2024 ATM program”). The sales agent is entitled to a commission of up to 3 % of the gross proceeds from the
sale of common stock sold under the 2024 ATM program. During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company sold an aggregate of 620,444
shares of its common stock under the 2024 ATM program and realized an aggregate net proceeds of approximately $ 6.8 million. Approximately
$ 23.2 million of the Company’s common stock remains available for sale under its 2024 ATM program, with $ 100,000,000 of capacity
remaining under its 2024 Shelf Registration Statement for the issuance of Company securities.

Restricted and Performance Stock Units
The Company has issued restricted
stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”) to certain employees and non-employee directors as compensation
for services. The grant date fair value of the RSUs is based upon the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the
grant for RSUs that vest upon service or performance conditions. For RSUs that vest upon market conditions, the grant date fair value
of RSUs is based upon a Monte-Carlo simulation model.
During the quarter ended March
31, 2024, the Company granted 283,333 RSUs to its executive officers with service based vesting conditions and a weighted average grant
date fair value of $ 3.47 per share.
During the quarter ended March
31, 2025, the Company granted 1,274,750 RSUs to its executive officers, board of directors and employees with service based vesting conditions
and a weighted average grant date fair value of $ 10.21 per share.
In addition to the RSUs noted
above, during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company issued 487,500 PSUs to its executive officers with market performance and
service based vesting conditions and, as such, the grant date fair value of $ 11.79 was calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model.
The following key assumptions were used to determine the fair value of the PSUs granted during the period:

Stock Options
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 no stock options were
issued. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted ten-year qualified and non-qualified stock options covering
an aggregate of 1,911,167 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Amended and Restated 2019 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan.
During the three months ended
March 31, 2025, the Company issued 84,091 shares of common stock, upon the exercise of stock options. The Company realized net proceeds
of $ 350,000 from this exercise with a weighted average exercise price of $ 4.17 per share. The aggregate intrinsic value amounted to $ 530,000
which was the difference between the exercise prices of the underlying options and the market prices of the common stock of the Company
at the date of exercise.
As of March 31, 2025, there
was approximately $ 5,176,000 in total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options granted, which will be recognized over
an expected remaining weighted average period of 1.3 years.
The Company uses the simplified
method to calculate the expected term which takes into account the vesting term and the expiration date of the stock options. The expected
term of the stock options granted to consultants, if any, is based upon the full term of the respective option agreements. The expected
stock price volatility for the Company’s stock options is calculated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock
price for the expected term. The expected dividend yield of 0 % reflects the Company’s current and expected future policy for dividends
on the Company’s common stock. To determine the risk-free interest rate, the Company utilized the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect
at the time of grant with a term consistent with the expected term of the Company’s awards.

As noted above, the Company’s primary focus is the commercialization
of its lead product, DefenCath, indicated to reduce the incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infections in adult patients with kidney
failure receiving chronic hemodialysis through a central venous catheter (“CVC”).
The Company has determined
that it currently operates in a single segment - Drug Product, located in a single geographic location – the United States. The
accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Since the Company
operates in a single segment, the measure of segment total assets and loss from operations is the same as that reported on the accompanying
balance sheets as total assets, and the accompanying statement of operations as loss from operations, respectively.
The Company’s Chief
Executive Officer is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM manages the Company’s business activities
as a single operating and reportable segment. The CODM uses consolidated profit and loss to evaluate and measure performance against progress
in its commercialization efforts and clinical trials. The following table sets forth significant segment expenses.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion
and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial information
and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on March 25, 2025.
Forward Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”), that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are often identified by the use of words such as,
but not limited to, “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,”
“expect,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “plan,” “project,” “seek,”
“should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions or variations intended to
identify forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, regarding management’s expectations,
beliefs, goals, plans or CorMedix’s prospects should be considered forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned that actual
results may differ materially from projections or estimates due to a variety of important factors, and readers are directed to the Risk
Factors identified in CorMedix’s filings with the SEC, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, copies of which are
available free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or upon request from CorMedix. CorMedix may not actually achieve the
goals or plans described in its forward-looking statements, and such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q. Investors should not place undue reliance on these statements. CorMedix assumes no obligation and does not intend
to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
Overview
CorMedix Inc. (collectively,
with our wholly owned subsidiaries, referred to herein as “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”)
is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic products for life-threatening diseases and conditions.
Our primary focus is commercializing
our lead product, DefenCath ® (taurolidine and heparin), in the U.S. The name DefenCath is the U.S. proprietary name approved
by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). CorMedix launched the product commercially in April 2024 in the inpatient
setting and July 2024 in the outpatient hemodialysis setting.
DefenCath is an FDA approved
antimicrobial catheter lock solution (“CLS”) (a formulation of taurolidine 13.5 mg/mL, and heparin 1000 USP Units/mL) indicated
to reduce the incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infections (“CRBSI”) in adult patients with kidney failure receiving
chronic hemodialysis through a central venous catheter (“CVC”). It is indicated for use in a limited and specific population
of patients. CRBSIs can lead to treatment delays and increased costs to the healthcare system when they occur due to extended and often
repeat hospitalizations, need for IV antibiotic treatment, long-term anticoagulation therapy, removal/replacement of the CVC, related
treatment costs, as well as increased mortality. We believe DefenCath can address a significant unmet medical need.
Following the submission of
a duplicate New Technology Add-On Payment (“NTAP”) application to Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”),
CMS issued the Inpatient Prospective Payment System (“IPPS”) 2024 proposed rule that includes a NTAP per hospital stay for
DefenCath. This NTAP represents reimbursement to inpatient facilities of 75% of the wholesaler acquisition cost (“WAC”) price
per 3 mL vial, and an average utilization of 19.5 vials per hospital stay. The final IPPS rule was amended as of October 1, 2024 to reflect
the current WAC of $249.99 per 3ml vial resulting in a potential maximum NTAP of $3,656.10, which CMS has extended through November 15,
2026.
On November 15, 2023, we announced
that the FDA approved the new drug application (“NDA”) for DefenCath to reduce the incidence of CRBSI in adult patients with
kidney failure receiving chronic hemodialysis through a CVC, DefenCath is indicated for use in a limited and specific population of patients.
DefenCath is the first and only FDA-approved antimicrobial CLS in the U.S. and was shown to reduce the risk of CRBSI by up to 71% in a
Phase 3 clinical study. As a result of the November 2023 FDA approval, CorMedix launched the product commercially in April 2024 in the
inpatient setting and July 2024 in the outpatient hemodialysis setting.
22
DefenCath is listed in the
Orange Book as having new chemical entity (“NCE”) exclusivity (5 years) expiring on November 15, 2028, and the Generating
Antibiotic Incentives Now (“GAIN”) exclusivity extension of the NCE exclusivity (an additional 5 years) expiring on November
15, 2033. The GAIN exclusivity extension of 5 years is the result of the January 2015 designation of DefenCath as a Qualified Infectious
Disease Product (“QIDP”).
On January 25, 2024, CMS determined
that DefenCath should be classified as a renal dialysis service that is subject to the Medicare end-stage renal disease prospective payment
system (“ESRD PPS”). The ESRD PPS provides bundled payment for renal dialysis services, but also affords a transitional drug
add-on payment adjustment, or TDAPA, which provides temporary, additional payments for certain new drugs and biologicals. We submitted
an application for TDAPA on January 26, 2024, and received confirmation that our application was approved on April 18, 2024 for a July
1, 2024 implementation. We also submitted a Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (“HCPCS”) application for a J-code to
CMS on December 8, 2023, for DefenCath, which is relevant to billing and the TDAPA application. The HCPCS J-code for DefenCath was published
by CMS on April 2, 2024. TDAPA reimbursement is calculated based on 100 percent ASP (or 100 percent of wholesale acquisition price or
manufacturers’ list price, respectively, if such data is unavailable). TDAPA and post-TDAPA add-on payment adjustments for DefenCath
apply for five years (with such add-on payments applying to all ESRD PPS payments for years three through five). CMS confirmed a July
1, 2024 implementation date for HCPCS and TDAPA.
We announced on June 6, 2024
that the CMS has determined that DefenCath qualified for pass-through status under the hospital Out-Patient Prospective Payment System
(“OPPS”). Pass-through status provides for separate payment under Medicare Part B for the utilization of DefenCath in the
outpatient ambulatory setting for a period of at least two years, and up to a maximum of three years. While vascular access for hemodialysis
can be initiated in an inpatient setting, ambulatory surgical centers or vascular access centers offer a less-invasive, outpatient-based
alternative for patients. We estimate that up to 100,000 hemodialysis-central venous catheter (“HD-CVC”) placements occur
each year, and pass-through status offers providers a separate reimbursement mechanism in this setting of care administration of DefenCath.
Subsequent to the launch of
DefenCath in April 2024, we announced U.S.-based multi-year commercial supply agreements consisting of a large and several mid-sized dialysis
organizations. Each provider has customized an implementation plan to provide access to patients based on a variety of clinical and other
factors. We believe the currently contracted customer base represents roughly 60% of the outpatient dialysis centers in the U.S., in terms
of the total addressable patient market.
Financial Operations Overview
Revenue from Product Sales
We generate product revenue
from commercial sales of DefenCath to a limited number of direct customers as well as distributors. Revenue from product sales is recognized
when our direct customers obtain control of the product and is recorded at the transaction price, net of estimates for variable consideration
consisting of chargebacks, discounts, returns and rebates. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from our estimates.
If actual results vary materially from our estimates, we will adjust these estimates, which will affect revenue from product sales and
earnings in the period such estimates are adjusted.
We continue to assess our
estimates of variable consideration as we accumulate additional historical data and will adjust these estimates accordingly.
23
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues include
direct and indirect costs related to the manufacturing and distribution of DefenCath, including product cost, packaging services, freight,
amortization of the license intangible asset and an allocation of overhead costs that are primarily fixed such as salaries, benefits and
insurance.
Research and Development Expense
Research and development,
or R&D, expense consists of: (i) internal costs associated with our development activities; (ii) payments we make to third-party contract
research organizations, contract manufacturers, investigative sites, and consultants; (iii) technology and intellectual property license
costs; (iv) manufacturing development costs; (v) personnel related expenses, including salaries, stock–based compensation expense,
benefits, travel and related costs for the personnel involved in drug development; and (vi) activities relating to regulatory filings
and pre-clinical studies and clinical trials. All R&D is expensed as incurred.
The process of conducting
pre-clinical studies and clinical trials necessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The probability of success
for each product line and clinical trial may be affected by a variety of factors, including, among others, the quality of the product
line’s early clinical data, investment in the program, competition, manufacturing capabilities and commercial viability. As a result
of the uncertainties associated with clinical trial enrollments and the risks inherent in the development process, we are unable to determine
the duration and completion costs of future clinical stages of our product lines or when, or to what extent, we will generate revenues
from the commercialization and sale of any of our future product lines.
Development timelines, probability
of success and development costs vary widely. We are currently focused on the commercialization of DefenCath in the U.S.
Selling and Marketing Expense
Selling and marketing, or
S&M, expense includes the cost of salaries and related costs for personnel in sales and marketing including our contract sales force,
brand building, advocacy, market research and consulting costs. Selling and marketing expenses are expensed as incurred.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative,
or G&A, expenses consist principally of salaries and related costs for personnel in executive, finance and administrative functions
including payroll taxes and health insurance, stock-based compensation and travel expenses. Other general and administrative expenses
include facility-related costs, insurance and professional fees for legal, patent review, consulting, and accounting services. General
and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred.
Foreign Currency Exchange Transaction Gain
(Loss)
Foreign currency exchange
transaction gain (loss) is the result of re-measuring transactions denominated in a currency other than our functional currency and is
reported in the consolidated statement of operations as a separate line item within other income (expense). The intercompany loans outstanding
between our New Jersey-based company and our subsidiaries will not be repaid and the nature of the funding advanced was of a long-term
investment nature. As such, unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans are recorded in other comprehensive
income (loss).
Interest Income
Interest income consists of
interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.
24
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists
of interest incurred on financing of expenditures.

incentive rebates.

of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $1.6 million as compared to $0.8 for the same period in 2024. Cost of revenues
include direct and indirect costs related to the manufacturing and distribution of DefenCath, including product cost, packaging services,
freight, amortization of the license intangible asset and an allocation of overhead costs that are primarily fixed such as salaries, benefits
and insurance. No product costs were recognized in the period ended March 31, 2024, the costs recognized pertained to indirect costs related
to the proportion of supply chain and quality personnel, benefits and insurance expenses, representing excess capacity in the production
of sellable product. As unit sales increase, a greater proportion of these costs will be capitalized as a component of inventory and expensed
at the point-of-sale.
Research and Development
Expense . R&D expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $3.2 million, an increase of $2.4 million, or 281%, from $0.8
million for the same period in 2024. The increase was due primarily to the increase in personnel and clinical trial services in support
of the ongoing clinical studies initiated in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Selling and Marketing Expense.
S&M expense was $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 29%, from $6.3 million
for the same period in 2024. This decrease is considered temporary as we severed our internal sales force in early January 2025, while
the related severance costs were recognized in the fourth quarter of 2024. Costs associated with our newly established outsourced sales
force have been ramping throughout the period ended March 31, 2025. We expect these costs to be normalized for the second quarter of 2025
and to be more closely in-line with the comparison period.
25
General and Administrative
Expense . G&A expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $9.7 million, an increase of $1.0 million, or 11%, from $8.7
million for the same period in 2024. The increase was driven by non-cash charges for stock-based compensation of $1.3 million offset by
a decrease in medical affairs of $0.3 million.
Interest Income . Interest
income was $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $0.8 million for the same period last year, a decrease of
$0.2 million, or 25%. The decrease was attributable to lower average interest rates during this period as compared to the same period
last year.
Foreign Exchange Transaction
Income (Loss) . Foreign exchange transaction income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were due to the re-measuring
of transactions denominated in a currency other than our functional currency. Balances and changes were immaterial for all periods presented.
Interest Expense . Interest
expense pertains to certain liabilities we chose to finance. Balances and changes were immaterial for all periods presented.
Tax Benefit. Tax benefit
for the three months ended March 31, 2024 of $1.4 million, was due to the sale of our unused NJ State net operating losses for fiscal
year 2023, which were sold in fiscal year 2024, through the NJEDA Program. No net operating losses were sold during the three months ended
March 31, 2025, or planned to be sold pertaining to unused net operating losses for fiscal year 2024.
Other Comprehensive (Loss)
Income . Unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans, the translation of the foreign affiliate financial
statements to U.S. dollars and unrealized movements related to short-term investment are recorded in other comprehensive (loss) income.
Other comprehensive income (loss) is considered immaterial for all periods presented.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
We achieved profitability
in the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025, driven by product sales of DefenCath. During the three months ended March
31, 2025, we received net proceeds of $6.8 million from the issuance of 620,444 shares of common stock under our at-the-market-issuance
sales agreement, or ATM program. We may continue to utilize external sources of cash to further fund operations.
In March 2024, we received
$1.4 million, net of expenses, from the sale of our unused New Jersey net operating losses (“NOL”), that were eligible for
sale under the State of New Jersey’s Economic Development Authority’s New Jersey Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer
program (“NJEDA Program”). The NJEDA Program allowed us to sell our available fiscal 2023 NJ state NOL tax benefits in the
amount of approximately $1.5 million.
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating
Activities
Net cash provided by operating
activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $19.7 million as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $17.3 million
for the same period in 2024. Net cash provided by operating activities was attributable to the net income of $20.6 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2025 compared to a net loss of $14.5 million in the comparison period in 2024. There were also increases in trade
receivables and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $2.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively, during the three months ended
March 31, 2025. These increases are partially offset by net increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses in an aggregate amount
of $4.4 million.
26
Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Investing
Activities
Net cash used in investing
activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $0.2 million as compared to $8.9 million of net cash provided by investing activities
for the same period in 2024. The net cash used during the three months ended March 31, 2025, was mainly driven by lower maturity of the
amount invested in short-term investments, as compared to the same period in 2024.
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing
Activities
Net cash provided by financing
activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $6.1 million due to the net proceeds generated from the sale of our common stock
in our ATM program, partially offset by payments of employee withholding taxes for vested restricted stock units of $1.0 million. Net
cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $0.1 million attributable to the payment of employee withholding
taxes for vested restricted stock units.
Funding Requirements and Liquidity
Our total cash, cash equivalents
and short-term investments as of March 31, 2025, was $77.5 million, excluding restricted cash of $0.1 million, compared with $51.7 million
as of December 31, 2024, excluding restricted cash of $0.1 million. As of March 31, 2025, $23.2 million of the Company’s common
stock remains available for potential sale under the ATM program. Additionally, we have $100.0 million of remaining capacity available
under our 2024 Shelf Registration Statement for the issuance of Company securities.
We expect to continue to fund
operations from cash collections of accounts receivable, our cash on hand, cash equivalents and short-term investments, and through capital
raising sources, which may be dilutive to existing stockholders. In May 2024, we implemented an ATM program, which may be utilized to
support our ongoing funding requirements. We may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities through one or more discrete transactions,
but can provide no assurances that any such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Moreover, the incurrence of indebtedness
would result in increased fixed obligations and could contain covenants that would restrict our operations.
Our actual cash requirements
may vary materially from those now planned due to a number of factors, including any material change in commercial operations pertaining
to DefenCath or the focus and direction of our research and development programs, any acquisition or pursuit of development of new product
candidates, competitive and technical advances, the costs of commercializing any of our product candidates, and costs of filing, prosecuting,
defending and enforcing any patent claims and any other intellectual property rights. Because our business has not generated consistent
and sustained positive operating cash flow, we may need to raise additional capital in order to continue to fund our research and development
activities, as well as to fund operations generally and we can provide no assurances that financing or strategic relationships will be
available on acceptable terms, or at all, if additional funds are needed. If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed, we may
be forced to slow or discontinue our commercial operations pertaining to DefenCath. We may also be required to delay, scale back or eliminate
some or all of our anticipated research and development programs. Each of these alternatives would likely have a material adverse effect
on our business.
We currently estimate that
as of March 31, 2025, we have sufficient cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments to fund operations for at least twelve months
from the issuance of these financial statements.
27
Contractual Obligations
We entered into a seven-year
operating lease agreement in March 2020 for an office space at 300 Connell Drive, Berkeley Heights, New Jersey 07922. The lease agreement,
with a monthly average cost of approximately $17,000, commenced on September 16, 2020.
In December 2024, we entered into a three-year agreement with Syneos
Health Commercial Services, LLC (“Syneos”) under which Syneos will provide a dedicated inpatient field sales force that will
exclusively promote DefenCath to hospitals and health systems. We have paid an up-front implementation fee and are obligated to pay a
fixed monthly fee. Upon the twelve-month anniversary of the deployment date, expected to be in the second quarter of 2026, the agreement
is cancelable upon 60 day’s written notice. As of March 31, 2025, the minimum amount committed under this agreement totals $9.1 million.
In 2008, the Company entered
into a License and Assignment Agreement (the ND License Agreement) with ND Partners, LLP (NDP). Pursuant to the ND License Agreement,
NDP granted the Company exclusive, worldwide licenses for certain antimicrobial catheter lock solutions, processes for treating and inhibiting
infections, a biocidal lock system and a taurolidine delivery apparatus, and the corresponding United States and foreign patents and applications
(the NDP Technology). During the year ended December 31, 2024, net sales milestones in the amount of $2.0 million were achieved and are
accrued in our consolidated balance sheet. In April 2025, the Company paid the final milestone payments in the aggregate amount of $2.0
million.
Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our consolidated
financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require our management to make estimates
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates,
as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. To the extent that there are material differences
between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations would be affected. We base our estimates
on our own historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable after taking account of our circumstances and expectations
for the future based on available information. We evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis. We consider an accounting estimate to
be critical if: (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting
estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, or use of different estimates
that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of
Directors. In addition, there are other items within our financial statements that require estimation, but are not deemed critical as
defined above. Changes in estimates used in these and other items could have a material impact on our financial statements.
● Litigation contingencies
are assessed and judgments are made to determine if an unfavorable outcome is considered probable or reasonably possible, and when considered
reasonably possible but not probable, the contingency is disclosed along with an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss. If a
liability is possible or probable, but no reasonable estimation of loss can be made, we will disclose the nature of the contingency and
state that such an estimate cannot be made. Such estimates and judgements are based on information obtained through the discovery process,
court filings and follow on filings by the plaintiffs as well as the stage of litigation. There have been no changes in management’s
estimates through the filing of this Form 10-Q.
28
● We account for product revenue from the sale of our product, DefenCath,
in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) which entails our estimates and judgments primarily
in determining the transaction price and more specifically as it relates to variable consideration associated with the contracts. Our
customers are located in the United States and consist primarily of outpatient service providers and to a lesser extent specialty wholesale
distributors. Variable consideration pertaining to an allowance for product returns of short-dated or expired product requires estimation
as our customers may have differing utilization, storage and distribution methods and we do not yet have significant historical trends.
The Company’s product accrual takes into consideration estimates of product held by its customers, the distribution channel, the
shelf life of the product held by customers, as well as when the product is eligible for return based on our returns good policy. At March
31, 2025, the Company had $1.4 million in accrued returns allowance. We have established the estimate for returns based on specific customer
circumstances, industry best practices and management experiences. Once return windows open and we experience actual returns we will further
refine our estimate methods.
● As of March 31, 2025, we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets.
While we generated taxable income in the current quarter and may be profitable for the full year, we believe that a full valuation allowance
remains appropriate due to the uncertainty pertaining to the full year level of forecasted profitability as compared to our recent historical
losses. We will continue to evaluate all available evidence, both positive and negative, in future periods. A sustained trend of profitability
could result in a reduction of the valuation allowance, which would favorably impact our effective tax rate.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.
The Company is not required to provide the information
called for in this item due to its status as a Smaller Reporting Company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure controls and procedures
are designed only to provide reasonable assurance that information to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Under the supervision and with the participation
of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange
Act) as of March 31, 2025. Based on the foregoing evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that
our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file
or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms
of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our
Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our
internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
For information regarding
our legal proceedings, see Note 5, Commitments and Contingencies, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated into this item by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There were no material changes
from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2024, except for the following:
Our business may be adversely affected by tariffs,
trade sanctions or similar government actions.
As of the date of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, discussions remain ongoing in respect of certain trade restrictions and tariffs on imports from various foreign countries,
as well as retaliatory tariffs enacted in response to such actions. In light of these events, there continues to exist significant uncertainty
about the future relationship between the U.S. and other countries with respect to such trade policies, treaties, and tariffs. These developments,
or the perception that any of them could occur, may have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of
global financial markets, and may significantly reduce global trade and, in particular, trade between the impacted nations and the United
States. Any of these factors could depress economic activity and restrict our access to potential partners, suppliers or other third parties
we seek to do business with and, in turn, have a material adverse effect on the business and financial condition of such third parties,
which in turn would negatively impact us.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
None.
