Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Note
1. The Company
electroCore,
Inc. and its subsidiaries (“electroCore” or the “Company”) is a bioelectronic technology company whose mission
is to improve health and quality of life through innovative non-invasive bioelectronic technologies.
electroCore,
headquartered in Rockaway, NJ, has three wholly owned subsidiaries: electroCore UK Ltd, electroCore Germany GmbH and NeuroMetrix, Inc.
(“NURO”). The Company has paused operations in Germany, with sales into the country and the rest of Europe being managed
by electroCore UK Ltd.
Note
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In the opinion of management, the Company has made all necessary adjustments, which include
normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position and results
of operations for the interim periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial
statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31,
2024, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 12, 2025.
The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
a full year, any other interim periods or any future year or period.
(b)
Principles of Consolidation
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of electroCore and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(c)
Use of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include revenue, licensed products and loss contingencies.
(d)
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The
following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash to the balance reflected on the Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Cash Flows at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
Schedule of Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
(in thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents
$ 7,857
$ 3,450
Restricted cash
250
250
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash
$ 8,107
$ 3,700
As
of September 30, 2025, cash equivalents represented funds held in an interest-bearing demand deposit account, U.S. treasury bills, and
a money market account.
The
Company’s restricted cash consists of cash that the Company is contractually obligated to maintain in accordance with the terms
of its corporate credit card arrangement with Citibank, N.A.
( e)
Marketable Securities
Marketable
securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as accumulated other comprehensive income, except for
losses from impairments which are determined to be other than temporary. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be
other-than-temporary are included in the determination of net loss and are included in interest and other income net. Fair values are
based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. Interest and dividends on available-for-sale securities are included in Interest
and other income. As of September 30, 2025, marketable securities amounted to $ 5.1 million and consist of U.S. treasury bills. The Company
held $ 8.5 million of marketable securities at December 31, 2024.

Recent Accounting Standards Pronouncements
In
December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) , Improvements to Income
Tax Disclosures which will require companies to make additional income tax disclosures. The pronouncement is effective for annual
filings for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company is still assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard but does not
expect it to have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
On
November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2024-03, Income Statement (Topic 220): Reporting Comprehensive
Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses , which requires public companies to disclose,
in interim and annual reporting periods, additional information about certain expenses in the financial statements. The amendments in
this pronouncement will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective basis or retrospective basis. The Company is
currently assessing the potential impacts of adoption on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Note
3. Liquidity, Significant Risks and Uncertainties
Liquidity
The
Company has experienced significant net losses, and it expects to continue to incur net losses for the near future as it works to increase
market acceptance of its prescription (Rx) products and general wellness and human performance products. The Company has never been profitable
and has incurred net losses and negative cash used in operations each year since its inception. The Company incurred net losses of $ 10.9
million and $ 8.7 million and used cash in its operations of $ 6.6 million and $ 5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025
and 2024, respectively.
The
Company has historically funded its operations with the proceeds of equity and debt financings. During the nine months ended September
30, 2025, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $ 0.2 million from sales of equity securities pursuant to our Sales Agreement
(as defined below) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”) and $ 7.5 million which was advanced by Avenue Opportunities
Fund II, L.P. (“Avenue”) pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement (as defined below). As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s
cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities totaled $ 13.2 million (“Cash Position”).
On
July 24, 2025, our Form S-3 registration statement (File No. 333-284477), or the 2025 Shelf Registration Statement, was declared effective
by the SEC. The 2025 Shelf Registration Statement relates to the potential offering and issuance from time to time of common stock, preferred
stock, warrants, rights, debt securities and units, up to an aggregate amount of $ 100.0 million. The proposed maximum offering price
per unit and the proposed maximum aggregate offering price per class of security in any future offering under the 2025 Shelf Registration
Statement will be determined from time to time by us in connection with the issuance by us of the securities registered under the 2025
Shelf Registration Statement. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have $ 100.0 million remaining for potential issuance under
the 2025 Shelf Registration Statement (including $ 19.8 million under the Sales Agreement (as defined below)). If we raise additional
funds by issuing equity or debt securities, either through the sale of securities pursuant to a registration statement or by other means,
our existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity or debt securities may have rights, preferences and privileges
senior to those of our existing stockholders.
On
November 29, 2024, we entered into an At The Market Offering Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Wainwright, whereby the
Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock from time to time having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 20 million by any
method deemed to be an “at-the-market” offering (“ATM”) as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, or any
other method specified in the Sales Agreement.
On
August 4, 2025 (the “LSA Closing Date”), we, and our wholly owned subsidiary, NURO, each as borrowers, entered into a Loan
and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), with Avenue. The Loan and Security Agreement provides for term
loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $ 12.0 million, $ 7.5 million of which was advanced on the LSA Closing Date. See “Note
10 – Long-Term Debt” for further information regarding the Loan and Security Agreement, and related transactions.
During
the remainder of 2025, we intend to continue to make targeted investments in sales and marketing to continue driving commercial activities.
We have historically funded our operations from the sale of our common stock, and most recently the convertible debt financing with Avenue,
and may continue to do so through utilization of the at-the-market facility pursuant to the Sales Agreement, or other equity or debt
transactions, including a potential $ 4.5 million under Tranche 2 (as defined below) of the Term Loans (as defined below), pursuant to
the Loan and Security Agreement, subject to customary conditions and achievement by us of certain performance milestones set forth in
the Loan and Security Agreement. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company had approximately $ 19.8 million of common stock
remaining available for issuance under the Sales Agreement pursuant to the 2025 Shelf Registration Statement.
The
Company’s expected cash requirements for the next 12 months from the date these financial statements are issued and beyond are
largely based on the commercial success of its products. Based on its current assessment, the Company believes its cash, cash equivalents,
restricted cash, and marketable securities, plus the net proceeds from and expected cash flow from operations and access to capital through
use of the ATM pursuant to the Sales Agreement, and potential availability under Tranche 2 (as defined below) of the Term Loans (as defined
below), will enable it to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements, as currently planned, for at least the next
12 months from the date the accompanying financial statements are issued. There remain significant risks and uncertainties regarding
the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s future capital requirements are difficult
to forecast and will depend on many factors that are out of its control. If the Company is unable to achieve its planned operating results
or maintain sufficient financial resources, including through potential positive cash flow from operations or supplemental access to
third-party debt, equity or hybrid capital, its business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely
affected.
Concentration
of Revenue Risks
The
Company earns a significant amount of its revenue in the United States from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs and United
State Department of Defense, or VA, pursuant to its qualifying contract under the Federal Supply Schedule, or FSS, and open market sales
to individual VA facilities. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, sales to the VA accounted for 69.9 % and 72.9 % of
net sales, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, sales to the VA accounted for 70.6 % and 72.9 % of net
sales, respectively.
For
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, Lovell Government Services, or Lovell,
accounted for more than 10% of our VA net sales . During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, sales associated with
no single facility accounted for more than 10% of the total VA net sales. One facility accounted for more than 10% of the total VA net
sales during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024,
one facility accounted for more than 10% of net sales from the United Kingdom National Health Service (“NHS”).
Foreign
Currency Exchange
The
Company has foreign currency exchange risks related to revenue and operating expenses in currencies other than the local currencies in
which it operates. The Company is exposed to currency risk from the potential changes in the functional currency values of its assets,
liabilities, and cash flows denominated in foreign currencies.

6. Fair Value Measurements
Financial
assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy:
●
Level
1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
●
Level
2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities,
quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable
or can be corroborated by observable market data.
●
Level
3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value
of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.
A
summary of the assets and liabilities carried at fair value in accordance with the hierarchy defined above is as follows:

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized lease expenses of approximately $ 178,000 and $ 357,000 ,
respectively. This expense does not include non-lease components associated with the lease agreements as the Company elected not to include

On
February 6, 2024, the Company entered into The First Amendment to Lease Agreement (the “Rockaway Amendment”) to extend its
Rockaway, New Jersey lease for an additional 10 years. The Rockaway Amendment was effective May 1, 2024 , and expires on July 31, 2034 ,
with a tenant option to renew for an additional five years . The increase in the term of the lease for the existing leased property was
accounted for as a lease modification, therefore, the associated operating lease right of use assets and operating lease liabilities
for the existing space were remeasured as of February 6, 2024. The Rockaway Amendment also includes the expansion of leased property
from 13,643 square feet to 22,557 square feet. The Company has accounted for the expansion space as an increase in lease right of use
assets effective with the Rockaway Amendment commencement date of June 1, 2024 .

Avenue
Loan and Security Agreement
On
the LSA Closing Date, the Company and NURO entered into the Loan and Security Agreement with Avenue,
as administrative agent and collateral agent, and as lender for term loans in an aggregate principal
amount of up to $ 12 million to be delivered in two tranches (the “Term Loans”). The tranches consist of (i) a term loan advanced
to the Company on the LSA Closing Date in an aggregate amount of $ 7.5 million (“Tranche 1”), and (ii) subject to the achievement
of certain performance milestones set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement, a right of the Company to request that Avenue make additional
term loan advances to the Company in an aggregate amount of $ 4.5 million (“Tranche 2”), which right expires on December 31,
2025. The Term Loans mature on August 1, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”).
Subject
to certain exceptions, Avenue has the right to convert (the “Conversion Right”) an aggregate amount of up to $ 2.5 million
of the outstanding Loan Amount into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price per share equal to $ 8.4625 , representing
125 % of the lower of (i) the five-day volume-weighted average price of Company’s common stock as calculated on the day prior to
the LSA Closing Date, or (ii) the closing price of Company’s common stock on the date prior to the LSA Closing Date ($ 6.77 ). Therefore,
the Company recorded the borrowings under Tranche 1 as Non-Convertible and Convertible Notes Payable, respectively. In the event the
Company elects to prepay the Term Loans in full, the Company shall provide no less than five business days’ prior written notice
to Avenue; provided, however, if Avenue has not yet exercised the Conversion Right, the Company shall provide written notice of prepayment
at least 10 days in advance of the proposed prepayment date and Avenue shall have the option, with respect to the Conversion Right, to
exercise the Conversion Right by delivering written notice to the Company at least two business days in advance of the proposed prepayment
date.
The
principal balance of the Term Loans bears interest at a variable rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) the sum of 5.0 % and the prime
rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal , provided that, in the event such prime rate of interest is less than zero, such rate
shall be deemed to be zero, and (ii) twelve and one-half percent ( 12.50 %) (the “Interest Rate”). Interest only shall be payable
at the Interest Rate during the period following the LSA Closing Date and continuing until the first day of the first full calendar month
following the 18 month anniversary of the LSA Closing Date, provided, however, that such period shall be extended for six months if as
of the 18 month anniversary of the LSA Closing Date, the Company has achieved certain milestones, as provided in the Supplement to the
Loan and Security Agreement dated August 4, 2025, by and among the Company, NURO and Avenue (the “Supplement”); provided,
further, however, that the such interest only period shall not exceed 24 months. Thereafter, principal and interest of the Term Loans
shall be fully amortized and paid, in equal, monthly principal installments, plus interest at the Interest Rate for such month, through
the Maturity Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Supplement. The Company will pay final payment at a fee of 3.5 % of the
Loan Amount, due upon the earlier of the Maturity Date or prepayment in full of the Term Loans, which is currently $ 262,500 based on
the borrowing under Tranche 1.

The
Company may, at its option at any time, prepay the Term Loans in their entirety by paying the then outstanding principal balance and
all accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loans, subject to a prepayment fee equal to (i) 3.0% of the principal amount outstanding
if the prepayment occurs on or prior to the first anniversary following the LSA Closing Date, (ii) 2.0% of the principal amount outstanding
if the prepayment occurs after the first anniversary following the LSA Closing Date, but on or prior to the second anniversary following
the LSA Closing Date, and (iii) 1.0% of the principal amount outstanding if the prepayment occurs after the second anniversary following
the LSA Closing Date, but on or prior to the Maturity Date.
The
Company incurred borrower commitment and legal fees of $ 1,290,000 , which are presented as debt discounts, of which $ 719,996 was settled
in the issuance of company stock (discussed further below). During the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded interest
expense of $ 204,795 , which included amortization of debt discount of $ 53,753 . As of September 30, 2025, the interest rate on Tranche
1 is 12.5 %.
The
Loan and Security Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets in which Avenue is granted a senior
secured lien. The Company also grants Avenue a negative pledge on the Company’s intellectual property, subject to limited exceptions,
pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement. The Loan and Security Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants,
including covenants by the Company limiting certain additional indebtedness, liens (including a negative pledge on intellectual property
and other assets, subject to limited exceptions), guaranties, substantial asset sales, investments and loans, certain corporate changes,
transactions with affiliates and fundamental changes.
The
Loan and Security Agreement provides for events of default customary for term loans of this type, including but not limited to non-payment,
breaches or defaults in the performance of covenants, insolvency, bankruptcy and the occurrence of a material adverse effect on the Company.
After the occurrence of an event of default, Avenue may (i) accelerate payment of all obligations, impose an increased rate of interest,
and terminate Avenue commitments under the Loan and Security Agreement and (ii) exercise any other right or remedy provided by contract
or applicable law.
Avenue
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to invest up to an aggregate of $1 million in equity securities of the Company on the same
terms, conditions, and pricing offered by the Company to other investors in connection with any offering of the Company’s equity
securities to third party investors for capital raising purposes occurring after the Closing Date, on the terms and conditions set forth
in the Supplement.

Avenue
Subscription Agreement
In
connection with the entry into the Loan and Security Agreement, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription
Agreement”) between the Company and Avenue, pursuant to which the Company issued 106,351 shares (the “Subscription Shares”)
of the Company’s common stock to Avenue for no additional consideration. The shares were valued at $ 719,996 based on the Company’s
stock price on the LSA Closing Date. The issuance of the Subscription Shares was made in reliance on the exemption from registration
contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506 of Regulation
D thereunder, because the offer and sale of such securities does not involve a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(a)(2)
of the Securities Act.
Pursuant
to the Subscription Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC within 60 days
of the LSA Closing Date a registration statement on Form S-3, or if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale securities
on Form S-3, on another appropriate form of registration statement, registering the resale of the Subscription Shares, and the shares
of the Company’s common stock issuable upon the Conversion Right pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement.
The
foregoing summary of the Subscription Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of Subscription Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period
ended June 30, 2025, and is incorporated by reference herein. The representations, warranties and covenants Subscription Agreement were
made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates and were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement.

At-the-Market
Facility
On
November 29, 2024, we entered into the Sales Agreement with Wainwright. Under the Sales Agreement, the Company may offer and sell shares
of its common stock from time to time having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 20 million during the term of the Sales Agreement

to continue to fund sales and marketing, working capital and for other general corporate purposes. During the nine months ended September
30, 2025 the company sold 14,265 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $ 217,000 . This amount has been offset by
financing fees of approximately $ 54,000 .

12. Net Loss Per Share
Basic
net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted
to give effect to potentially dilutive securities. Due to their nominal exercise price of $ 0.001 per share, 883,433 and 1,608,433 pre-funded
warrants are considered common stock equivalents during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and
are included in weighted average shares outstanding in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations as of the applicable
purchase date. Stock unit awards, stock options, and warrants (other than the pre-funded warrants) have not been included in the diluted
loss per share calculation as their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect.

15. Commitments and Contingencies
The
Company may be a party to various legal proceedings and claims arising out of the ordinary course of its business. Although the final
results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company currently believes that there are no current proceedings
or claims pending against it the ultimate resolution of which would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results
of operations. However, should the Company fail to prevail in any legal matter, including the Pulsetto litigation referenced in “Note
19 – Legal Proceedings”, or should several legal matters be resolved against the Company in the same reporting period, such
matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results and cash flows for that particular period. In all
cases, at each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable
and reasonably estimable under ASC 450 , “Contingencies.” Legal costs are expensed as incurred.
2025
CVR Agreement
On
May 1, 2025 (the “NURO Closing Date”), the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of NURO (following consummation
of the Merger, the “Surviving Corporation”), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of December
17, 2024 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, NURO, and Nexus Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”).
Pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, on the NURO Closing Date, Merger Sub merged with and into NURO, with NURO surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company (the “Merger”).
Immediately
prior to the effective time (the “Effective Time”) of the Merger, the Company entered into a contingent value rights agreement
(the “CVR Agreement”) with a rights agent (the “Rights Agent”), pursuant to which the holders (each, a “Holder”)
of (i) shares of common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, of NURO (the “NURO Common Stock”) outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time, (ii) outstanding awards of restricted stock with respect to shares of NURO Common Stock, outstanding at the Effective
Time, (iii) NURO restricted stock units outstanding at the Effective Time, (iv) all issued and outstanding shares of NURO’s preferred
stock, par value $ 0.001 per share, outstanding at the Effective Time, and (v) each stock option granted by NURO to purchase NURO Common
Stock, outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, may become entitled to contingent cash payments (each, a “Contingent
Payment”) that net of certain transaction expenses, will equal (1) 8% of the Quell Net Sales (as defined in the CVR Agreement)
during the first 12-month period after the NURO Closing Date, in an amount up to $500,000 (the “First Quell Net Sales Payment”),
but if 8% of the Quell Net Sales during such period is less than $25,000, the First Quell Net Sales Payment shall be zero; (2) 6% of
the Quell Net Sales during the second 12-month period after the NURO Closing Date, an amount up to $500,000 minus the amount of the First
Quell Net Sales Payment (the “Second Quell Net Sales Payment”), but if 6% of the Quell Net Sales during such second period
is less than $25,000, the Second Quell Net Sales Payment shall be zero; (3) the amounts received by the Company after the Effective Time
pursuant to any Disposition Agreement (as defined in the CVR Agreement) signed prior to the Effective Time with respect to the disposition
of NURO’s DPNCheck® Business; (4) an amount equal to $125,000 less any funds used by the Company as of July 1, 2025 out of
a reserve of $250,000 for payment of potential expenses of the Company that were reserved against NURO’s net cash balance (as determined
pursuant to the Merger Agreement); and (5) the balance of the funds remaining in the reserve as of May 1, 2027.

17. Segment Reporting
Operating
segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief
operating decision-maker (CODM), or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. electroCore
is a commercial stage bioelectronic technology company whose mission is to improve health and quality of life through innovative non-invasive
bioelectronic technologies. The Company views its operations and manages its business as one operating segment: Bioelectronic Innovations.
The accounting policies of the Bioelectronic Innovations segment are the same as those described in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies.
Our
CODM is our Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses loss from operations, as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations, in
evaluating the performance of the Bioelectronic Innovations segment and in determining how to allocate resources to the Company as a
whole, The CODM does not review assets in evaluating the results of the Bioelectronic Innovations segment, and therefore, such information
is not presented below.

19. Legal Proceedings
UAB
Pulsetto v. electroCore, Inc.
On
June 11, 2025, UAB Pulsetto (“Pulsetto”) filed a declaratory judgment action against the Company in the United States District
Court for the District of New Jersey, captioned UAB Pulsetto v. electroCore, Inc., Civ. No. 25-10036 (D.N.J.), asserting that
its non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation product does not infringe the Company’s U.S. Patent No. 11,446,491 (the “491 Patent”).
On
July 16, 2025, the Company filed a responsive pleading, answering the complaint and asserting counterclaims, that Pulsetto’s non-invasive
vagus nerve stimulation product infringes the ‘491 Patent, as well as the Company’s U.S. Patent Nos. 8,948,873, 9,339,653,
10,874,857, 8,843,210, 9,242,092, 11,623,078, and 10,441,780, as well as claims that Pulsetto’s commercial conduct has infringed
and continues to infringe the Company’s Truvaga™ and gammaCore® trademarks, and committed acts of false advertising and
unfair competition in violation of state and federal law. On September 5, 2025, Pulsetto requested leave to file a motion to dismiss
the Company’s counterclaims for lack or jurisdiction and/or insufficient pleadings. The Company has opposed that request, which
has not yet been considered by the trial judge. On September 9, 2025, the court approved a schedule for discovery, and certain proceedings,
filings, submissions, motions, reports and conferences. The parties have exchanged initial requests for the production of documents relevant
to the dispute.
The
Company believes that Pulsetto’s claim is without merit and intends to defend vigorously against it and to pursue vigorously the
Company’s patent and non-patent counterclaims against Pulsetto. The Company expenses associated legal fees in the period they are
incurred, and in light of, among other things, the preliminary stage of the litigation, the Company is unable to determine the reasonable
probability of loss or a range of potential loss or gain or a range of potential gain. Accordingly, the Company has not established an
accrual for potential losses or gains, if any, that could result from any unfavorable or favorable outcome, and there can be no assurance
that these litigation matters will not result in substantial litigation costs and/or judgments or settlements that could adversely affect
the Company’s financial condition.

20. Subsequent Events
October
2025 Private Placement Offering
On
September 30, 2025, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with certain institutional and accredited investors (the
“Private Agreements”), which collectively provided for the sale by the Company of 360,737 shares (the “Private Shares”)
of common stock of the Company, par value $ 0.001 per share. The Private Shares were issued at a price of $ 5.145 per share in satisfaction
of an aggregate of approximately $ 1.856 million of legal services rendered or to be rendered to the Company by the investors. The Company
did not receive cash proceeds in connection with the issuance of these shares.

2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You
should read this section in conjunction with our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included
in this Quarterly Report and our Quarterly Report for the period ended March 31, 2025,and our audited consolidated financial statements
and related notes thereto and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the year
ended December 31, 2024 included in our Annual Report. As discussed in the section titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements,” the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as
well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from tho se
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are
not limited to, those identified below, and those under the caption “Risk Factors” in the aforementioned Annual Report and
this Quarterly Report.
We
are a bioelectronic technology company whose mission is to improve health and quality of life through innovative non-invasive bioelectronic
technologies. The Company’s two leading prescription products, gammaCore non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (“nVNS”)
and Quell Fibromyalgia (“Quell”), treat chronic pain syndromes through non-invasive neuromodulation technology. Additionally,
the Company commercializes its Truvaga and TAC-STIM, handheld, personal use nVNS products to promote general wellness and human performance.
nVNS,
a form of bioelectronic technology, modulates neurotransmitters through its effects on both the peripheral and central nervous systems.
Our nVNS treatment is delivered through a proprietary high-frequency burst waveform that safely and comfortably passes through the skin
and stimulates therapeutically relevant fibers in the vagus nerve. Various scientific publications suggest that nVNS works through a
variety of mechanistic pathways including the modulation of neurotransmitters.
Historically,
vagus nerve stimulation or VNS, required an invasive surgical procedure to implant a costly medical device. This has generally limited
VNS from being used by anyone other than the most severe patients. Our non-invasive bioelectronic nVNS technologies are self-administered
and intended for regular or intermittent use over many years.
Our
capabilities include product development, regulatory affairs and compliance, sales and marketing, product testing, electromechanical
assembly, fulfillment, and customer support. We derive revenues from the sale of products in the United States and select overseas markets.
We have two principal product categories:
●
Handheld,
personal use bioelectronic therapies for the management and treatment of certain medical conditions; and
●
Handheld,
personal use consumer electronic products utilizing bioelectronic technologies to promote general wellness and human performance.
We
believe our bioelectronic technologies may be used in the future to effectively treat additional medical conditions.
Our
goal is to be a leader in non-invasive neuromodulation to deliver better health. To achieve this, we offer multiple propositions:
●
Prescription
gammaCore bioelectronic therapy for the treatment of certain prescription U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) cleared
medical conditions such as primary headache;
●
Prescription
Quell Fibromyalgia authorized to treat the symptoms of fibromyalgia;
●
Truvaga
for the support of general health and wellbeing; and
●
TAC-STIM
for human performance.
Our
flagship prescription gammaCore medical device uses our bioelectronic therapy that is FDA cleared for a variety of primary headache conditions.
gammaCore is available by prescription only and Sapphire is a portable, reusable, rechargeable and reloadable personal use option for
patients to use at home or on the go. Prescriptions are written by a health care provider and dispensed from a specialty pharmacy, through
the patient’s healthcare system, or shipped directly to certain patients in the United States from our facility in Rockaway, NJ.
After the initial prescription is filled, access to additional therapy can be refilled for certain of our gammaCore products through
the input of a prescription-only authorization.
We
offer multiple versions of our bioelectronic technology to support general health and wellbeing. Truvaga 350 is a personal use consumer
electronics general wellness product and Truvaga Plus, which was launched in April 2024, is our next generation, app-enabled general
wellness product. Neither product requires a prescription, and both are available direct-to-consumer from electroCore at www.truvaga.com
or through online retailers.
The
TAC-STIM handset is a form of nVNS for human performance and has been developed in collaboration with the United States Department of
Defense Biotech Optimized for Operational Solutions and Tactics, or BOOST program. TAC-STIM handsets are available as a Commercial Off
the Shelf (COtS) solution to professional organizations and are the subject of ongoing research and evaluation within the United States
Air Force Special Operations Command, the United States Army Special Operations Command and at the United States Air Force Research Laboratory.
Truvaga
and TAC-STIM are intended for general wellness in compliance with the FDA guidance document entitled “General Wellness: Policy
for Low-Risk Devices; Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, issued on September 27, 2019.” Truvaga and TAC-STIM handsets are not
intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition.
In
2021, Quell received Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA for a fibromyalgia indication. A pivotal double-blind, randomized,
sham-controlled clinical study of Quell Fibromyalgia was completed, and a, FDA 510(k) de novo marketing authorization was obtained from
the FDA in 2022.
20
See
“Item 1 – Business – De Novo Classification Process” and “Item 1.A – Risk Factors” of our Annual
Report for additional information on the FDA’s 510(k) de novo classification and marketing authorization processes.
Quell
is a prescription medical device sold in the United States and indicated for use as an aid for reducing the symptoms of fibromyalgia
in adults with high pain sensitivity. Quell is a wearable neuromodulation technology for chronic pain, has been refined with feedback
from over 200,000 chronic pain patients and is protected by over 20 U.S. utility patents. Patients control and personalize the technology
with a mobile phone app, and certain clinical metrics such as utilization may be tracked in the Quell Health Cloud. Prescriptions for
Quell Fibromyalgia are written by a health care provider and shipped directly to certain patients in the United States from our facility
in Rockaway, NJ. After the initial prescription is filled, access to additional electrodes can be refilled without the need of a prescription.
There is also a small legacy customer base utilizing the Quell 2.0 over-the-counter product for broader pain.
Our
two largest customers by revenue are the United States Department of Veterans Affairs and United States Department of Defense, or VA,
and the United Kingdom National Health Service, or NHS, utilizing our FDA cleared and CE marked product, gammaCore. We began offering
Quell Fibromyalgia to our VA customers in May 2025.
Sales
to the VA comprised 69.9% and 70.6% of our revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. The majority
of our 2024 sales were made pursuant to our qualifying contract under the Federal Supply Schedule, or FSS, which was secured by us in
December 2018 (the “Original FSS Contract”), as well as open market sales to individual facilities within the government
channel. In March 2025, we entered into a new FSS contract which became effective on June 15, 2025, and runs through June 14, 2030.
In
August 2023, we signed a non-exclusive distribution agreement with Lovell providing Lovell the right to list and distribute certain gammaCore
products into the federal market. Lovell is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) offering medical and pharmaceutical
goods and services to federal healthcare providers. Listing products with Lovell is intended to streamline the sales process to a variety
of government procurement channels through Lovell’s compliance with contracting regulations and its provision of logistical solutions
connected directly into government contracting portals, all of which are intended to help government agencies meet their SDVOSB procurement
goals. Customers for these vehicles are federal healthcare systems such as the Veterans Health Administration (VHA, which includes the
VA), the Military Health System (MHS), and Indian Health Services (IHS), which we believe serve up to approximately 21 million patients
combined. In May 2025, we added Quell Fibromyalgia to the Lovell contracting platform. In October 2025, we added our new gammaCore platform,
Emerald, to the Lovell contracting platform.
Between
November 2023 and January 2024, certain gammaCore products were added to the FSS, the VA Distribution and Pricing Agreement (DAPA), GSA
Advantage, and Defense Logistics Agency’s ECAT system procurement portals through the Lovell contract vehicles, enabling the purchase
of gammaCore products within the government channel and throughout the federal markets, including, but not limited to, the VA. The gammaCore
products offered through Lovell provide government customers with similar product configuration options to those currently sold through
our existing FSS contract, new FSS contract and open market sales made directly to individual VA facilities. We expect an increasing
portion of our 2025 sales will be made pursuant to the distribution agreement with Lovell and its contract vehicles as well as through
our new FSS contract, and our sales function in this channel is comprised of employees and an increasing number of independent contractors.
21
Sales
under the UK Med Tech Funding Mandate, or MTFM, for cluster headache in the UK comprised 3.7% and 4.6% of our revenue during the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. In 2023, NHS granted a two-year extension in which our prescription gammaCore
therapy will continue to be listed in the NHS catalog. This extension is through March 17, 2026 with an option for us to extend an additional
two years. In 2025, we expect NICE to review the guidance document and any changes in recommendation or pricing may adversely impact
our ability to work with NHS England on the MTFM program and could have an adverse impact on our financial results. We continue to utilize
distribution partners to commercialize our nVNS technology in selected territories outside the United States and United Kingdom.
We
believe there may be significant opportunities beyond these two areas. Specifically, we believe there may be a large commercial opportunity
for our gammaCore and Quell bioelectronic therapies with additional covered lives, cash pay, physician dispense, and direct-to-consumer
approaches, along with wellness and human performance propositions through our Truvaga and TAC-STIM handsets. Therefore, we plan to continue
our investments to expand our efforts in these channels and markets in the remainder of 2025 and beyond.
On
May 1, 2025, we acquired NURO. NURO is a commercial stage healthcare company that develops and commercializes neurotechnology devices
to address unmet needs in the chronic pain market through its Quell® platform: a wearable, app and cloud-enabled neuromodulation
platform that is indicated for the treatment of fibromyalgia symptoms (Quell Fibromyalgia) and lower-extremity chronic pain (Quell 2.0).
The transaction closed on May 1, 2025. The transaction excluded NURO’s DPNCheck® technology and business, which was divested
by NURO prior to closing of the transaction.
We
face a variety of challenges and risks that we will need to address and manage as we pursue our strategies, including our ability to
develop and retain an effective sales force, achieve market acceptance of our gammaCore and Quell medical devices among clinicians, patients,
and third-party payers, expand the use of our medical devices to additional therapeutic indications, and to develop our nascent wellness
and human performance businesses.
As
we continue to pursue opportunities in both U.S. and select international markets, we remain subject to evolving global economic conditions,
including uncertainties related to the ongoing U.S. government shutdown, as well as international trade policies, tariffs, and supply
chain dynamics. Uncertainties and changes in trade regulations, tariff structures, or logistical constraints could influence the cost,
availability, or timing of materials and components used in our manufacturing and assembly processes. We intend to monitor these developments
and are actively implementing contingency plans, including alternative sourcing strategies and supplier diversification, to support supply
chain continuity, maintain operational efficiency, and help mitigate potential future impacts.
We
launched a direct-to-consumer wellness offering, Truvaga, and we remain subject to risks associated with the commercialization of our
Truvaga product offering, including those associated with selling Truvaga through ecommerce marketplaces. Selling products through large,
well established ecommerce marketplaces presents several risks including inventory management challenges, broader competition, potential
account suspensions, and the risk of losing control over brand identity, value perception, and customer relationships. While we intend
to monitor commercialization efforts through these marketplaces, there can be no assurance that we can respond adequately to reviews
on public forums, or at all on third-party forums, which may cause a loss of control over our brand identity, value perception and customer
relationships, and any inability to respond adequately may negatively impact our operating results.
Because
of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with our commercialization efforts, as well as research and product development activities,
there may be uncertainty regarding our ability to achieve or maintain profitability. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to
sustain profitability, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations.
Our
expected cash requirements for the next 12 months and beyond are based on the commercial success of our products and our ability to control
operating expenses. There are significant risks and uncertainties as to our ability to achieve these operating results. Due to these
risks and uncertainties, we may need to reduce our activities significantly more than our current operating plan and cash flow projections
assume in order to fund operations for the next 12 months. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient cash flow and liquidity
to fund our planned activities, which could force us to significantly reduce or curtail our activities and, ultimately potentially cease
operations. See also “Liquidity Outlook.”

Critical
Accounting Estimates
The
preparation of our financial statements is in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
or GAAP, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses
and other related disclosures. While we believe our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based on information
presently available. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates due to changes in judgments, assumptions and conditions
as a result of unforeseen events or otherwise, which could have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
We
consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were
highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (ii) 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. The critical accounting estimates, that we believe have the greatest potential impact
on the condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in the section titled Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in
Part II of our Annual Report.
There
have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Item 7, Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Annual Report.

Sales
Net
sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased 33%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase
of $2.1 million is due to an increase in net sales of prescription products sold into the VA and revenue from the sales of our non-prescription
general wellness Truvaga products. We expect that the majority of our remaining 2025 fiscal year revenue will continue to come from the
prescription products sold into the VA and the Truvaga direct-to-consumer product offering. See the above Overview for discussion regarding
our FSS contract with the VA.

Gross margin was 86% and 84% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in gross profit is attributable
to the increased net sales and product mix. Gross profit and gross margin for the remainder of 2025 will be largely dependent on revenue
levels, product mix, and any changes in the estimated useful lives of licensed devices.
Research
and Development
Research
and development expense in the third quarter of 2025 was $0.7 million, as compared to $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2024.
This increase was primarily due to increased development costs associated with our next generation mobile application in the three
months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. For the remainder of 2025, we expect our
research and development expense to be higher than the comparable periods in 2024.
Selling,
General and Administrative
Selling,
general and administrative expense of $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $2.1 million, or 27%, as
compared to $7.6 million for the previous year period. This increase was primarily due to our greater investment in selling and marketing
costs consistent with our increase in sales and increased professional fees. For the remainder of 2025, we plan on continuing to make
targeted investments in sales and marketing to support our commercial efforts, particularly around sales and marketing efforts across
all major U.S. channels.
Other
Expense (Income)
Total
other expense was $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, which consisted primarily of non-recurring expenses, including
$0.4 million acquisition-related costs in connection with the estimated liability payable to pre-closing shareholders of NURO pursuant
to the CVR Agreement, professional fees associated with financing and business development activities and interest expense on the convertible
debt financing with Avenue, as compared to total other income of $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, which consisted
primarily of interest income.

of $4.7 million is due to an increase in net sales of prescription products sold into the VA and outside the United States, and revenue
from the sales of our nonprescription general wellness Truvaga products. We expect that the majority of our remaining 2025 fiscal year

to the increased net sales and product mix. Gross profit and gross margin for the remainder of 2025 will be largely dependent on revenue
levels, product mix, and any changes in the estimated useful lives of licensed devices.
Research
and Development
Research
and development expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $1.8 million, as compared to $1.6 million during the nine months
ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily due to an increase in headcount and a non-recurring clinical trial refund recognized
in the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by a reduction of development costs. For the remainder of 2025, we expect our research
and development expense to be higher than the comparable periods in 2024.
Selling,
General and Administrative
Selling,
general and administrative expense of $28.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $5.1 million, or 22%, as
compared to $22.9 million for the previous year period. This increase was primarily due to our greater investment in selling and marketing
costs consistent with our increase in sales, an increase in separation costs associated with select headcount reductions, bad debt expense
associated with a TAC-STIM receivable, increased expenses associated with professional fees, and increased rent expense associated with
the lease expansion. For the remainder of 2025, we plan on continuing to make targeted investments in sales and marketing to support
our commercial efforts, particularly around sales and marketing efforts across all major U.S. channels.
Other
Expense (Income)
Total
other expense was $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, which consisted primarily of non-recurring expenses, including
fees in connection with the NURO acquisition, professional fees associated with financing and business development activities and interest
associated with the convertible debt financing with Avenue, as compared to total other income of $0.3 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2024, which consisted primarily of interest income.
Benefit
from Income Taxes
We
may be eligible, from time to time, to receive cash from the sale of our net operating losses under New Jersey’s Department of
the Treasury - Division of Taxation NOL Transfer Program. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 the Company received
net cash payments of $48,000 and $122,000, respectively, from the sale of its New Jersey state net operating losses.

Operating
Activities
Net
cash used in operating activities was $6.6 million and $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
This increase is primarily due to the increase in our net loss partially offset by favorable timing of accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Investing
Activities
Net
cash provided by investing activities was $3.4 million and $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
This increase is primarily due to proceeds from the sale of marketable securities.
Financing
Activities
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was $7.7 million primarily attributable to net proceeds
from the convertible debt financing with Avenue. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities
was $8.1 million which was attributable to the entering into a registered direct offering and concurrent private placements, which closed
on June 5, 2024.
Liquidity
Outlook
We
have experienced significant net losses, and we expect to continue to incur net losses for the near future as we work to increase market
acceptance of our gammaCore therapy and general wellness and human performance products. We have never been profitable and we have incurred
net losses and negative cash used in operations in each year since our inception. We incurred net losses of $10.9 million and $8.7 million
and used cash in our operations of $6.6 million and $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
We
have historically funded our operations with the proceeds of equity and debt financings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025,
we received net proceeds of approximately $0.2 million from sales of equity securities pursuant to the Sales Agreement and $7.5 million
which was advanced by Avenue pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement (as defined below). As of September 30, 2025, our cash, cash
equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities totaled $13.2 million.
On
November 29, 2024, we entered into the Sales Agreement with Wainwright, whereby the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock
from time to time having an aggregate offering price of up to $20 million by any method deemed to be an “at-the-market” offering
as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, or any other method specified in the Sales Agreement. During the nine months ended September
30, 2025, the Company sold 14,265 shares of its common stock at a weighted average price of $15.20 per share, net of issuance costs for
$0.2 million in net proceeds, pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
On
August 4, 2025, we, and our wholly owned subsidiary, NURO, each as borrowers, entered into the Loan and Security Agreement with Avenue
that is secured by a lien on substantially all of our assets, including a negative pledge on intellectual property, subject to limited
exceptions, pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement. The Loan and Security Agreement provides for term loans in an aggregate principal
amount of up to $12.0 million to be delivered in two tranches. The tranches consist of (i) a term loan advanced to the Company on August
4, 2025 in an aggregate principal amount of $7.5 million, and (ii) subject to the achievement of certain performance milestones set forth
in the Loan and Security Agreement, a right of the Company to request that Avenue make additional term loan advances to the Company in
an aggregate principal amount of up to $4.5 million which right expires on December 31, 2025.
Interest
only shall be payable during the period following the LSA Closing Date and continuing until the first day of the first full calendar
month following the 18 month anniversary of the LSA Closing Date, provided, however, that such period shall be extended for six months
if as of the 18 month anniversary of the LSA Closing Date. Principal repayments are scheduled for $2.5 million in 2027, $3.0 million
in 2028 and $2.3 million in 2029 (inclusive of a final payment fee of 3.5% of the loan amount).
See
Note 10 – Long-Term Debt in the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details of our long-term debt.
On
September 30, 2025, the Company entered into the Private Agreements with certain institutional and accredited investors, which collectively
provided for the sale by the Company of 360,737 Private Shares. The Private Shares were issued at a price of $5.145 per share, in satisfaction
of an aggregate of approximately $1.856 million of legal services rendered or to be rendered to the Company by the investors. The Company
did not receive cash proceeds in connection with the issuance of these shares.
During
the remainder of 2025, we intend to continue to make targeted investments in sales and marketing to continue driving commercial activities.
We have historically funded our operations from the sale of our common stock, and most recently the convertible debt financing with Avenue,
and may continue to do so through utilization of the at-the-market facility pursuant to the Sales Agreement, or other equity or debt
transactions, including a potential $4.5 million under Tranche 2 of the Term Loans, pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, subject
to customary conditions and achievement by us of certain performance milestones set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement. As of the
date of this Quarterly Report, the Company had approximately $19.8 million of common stock remaining available for issuance under the
Sales Agreement.
The
Company’s expected cash requirements for the next 12 months from the date these financial statements are issued and beyond are
largely based on the commercial success of its products. Based on its current assessment, the Company believes its cash, cash equivalents,
restricted cash, and marketable securities, plus the net proceeds from Tranche 1 of the Term Loan, and expected cash flow from operations
and access to capital through the use of the ATM pursuant to the Sales Agreement and Tranche 2 of the Term Loans will enable it to fund
its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements, as currently planned, for at least the next 12 months from the date the
accompanying financial statements are issued. There remain significant risks and uncertainties regarding the Company’s business,
financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s future capital requirements are difficult to forecast and will depend
on many factors that are out of its control. If the Company is unable to achieve its planned operating results or maintain sufficient
financial resources, including through potential positive cash flow from operations or supplemental access to third-party debt, equity
or hybrid capital, its business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Item
3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We
develop our products in the United States and sell those products into several countries. As a result, our financial results could be
affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Most of our sales
in UK are denominated in British Pound Sterling and our license agreement with Teijin Limited is denominated in Japanese Yen. As our
sales in currencies other than the U.S. dollar increase, our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations may increase. In addition, changes
in exchange rates also may affect the end-user prices of our products compared to those of our foreign competitors, who may be selling
their products based on local currency pricing. These factors may make our products less competitive in some countries.
If
the U.S. dollar uniformly increased or decreased in strength by 10% relative to the foreign currencies in which our sales were denominated,
our net income would have correspondingly increased or decreased by an immaterial amount for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2025.
Our
exposure to market interest rate risk is confined to our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The goals of our investment
policy are preservation of capital, fulfillment of liquidity needs and fiduciary control of cash and investments. We also seek to maximize
income from our investments without assuming significant risk. To achieve our goals, we may maintain a portfolio of cash equivalents
and investments in a variety of securities of high credit quality. The securities in our investment portfolio, if any, are not leveraged,
are classified as available for sale and are, due to their very short-term nature, subject to minimal interest rate risk. We currently
do not hedge interest rate exposure. Because of the short-term maturities of our cash equivalents, we do not believe that an increase
in market rates would have any material negative impact on interest income recognized in our statement of operations. We have no investments
denominated in foreign currencies and therefore our investments are not subject to foreign currency exchange risk. We contract with investigational
sites, suppliers and other vendors in Europe and internationally. In addition, our license agreement requires payments to us to be denominated
in Japanese Yen. We are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency rates in connection with these agreements. We do not hedge our foreign
currency exchange rate risk.
All
of the potential changes noted above are based on sensitivity analyses performed on our financial position as of September 30, 2025.
Item
4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under
the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms, and that
such information is accumulated and communicated to us, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate,
to allow timely decision making regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we
recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving
the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and we apply our judgment in evaluating whether the benefits of the controls
and procedures that we adopt outweigh their costs.
As
required by Rule 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of September 30, 2025 was conducted under the supervision
and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness
of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2025 were effective
for the purposes stated above.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
was no change in our internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange
Act, that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially
affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Item
1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The
information set forth in Note 19. Legal Proceedings of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly
Report is incorporated here by reference to this Part II Item 1.
Item
1A.
RISK
FACTORS
You
should carefully consider the risk factors included in Item 1A. of the Annual Report, in addition to the following risk factors, and
the other information in this Quarterly Report, including the section of this Quarterly Report titled “Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our financial statements and related notes. If any of the events
described in the Annual Report, the following risk factors and the risks described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report occur, our business,
operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed. This Quarterly Report also contains forward-looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements
as a result of factors that are described in the Annual Report, below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
Our
failure to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing standards could result in a delisting of our common stock, which could negatively impact
the market price and liquidity of our common stock and our ability to access the capital markets.
Pursuant
to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b), in order to maintain our listing on Nasdaq, we are required to continue to meet one of the following
continued listing standards: (i) net income from continuing operations (in the most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the three
most recently completed fiscal years) of at least $500,000 (the “Net Income Standard”); (ii) market value of listed securities
of at least $35 million (the “Market Value Standard”); or (iii) stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million (the
“Equity Standard”).
As
of September 30, 2025, our stockholders’ equity was less than $2.5 million and therefore less than the Equity Standard. As a result,
if Nasdaq determines that we do not meet either the Net Income Standard or the Market Value Standard, we may receive a deficiency letter
from Nasdaq. Upon receipt of such deficiency letter, we will have a period of time to resolve such deficiency and, if necessary, will
have the opportunity to present a plan to regain compliance.
There
can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept our plan to regain compliance or that we will meet the Equity Standard during any compliance
period, if one is provided to us. If our common stock is de-listed from Nasdaq, it will have material negative impact on the actual and
potential liquidity of our securities, as well as material negative impact on our ability to raise future capital.
If,
for any reason, Nasdaq should delist our common stock from trading on its exchange and we are unable to obtain listing on another national
securities exchange or take action to restore our compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements, a reduction in some or all
of the following may occur, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our stockholders:
●
the
liquidity of our common stock;
●
the
market price of our common stock;
●
our
ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations;
●
the
number of institutional and general investors that will consider investing in our common stock;
●
the
number of investors in general that will consider investing in our common stock;
●
the
number of market makers in our common stock;
●
the
availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of our common stock; and
●
the
number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in shares of our common stock.

Our
ongoing disputes with Pulsetto may be costly, time consuming and, if adversely determined against us, could have a material adverse effect
on our financial position and business operations.
On
June 11, 2025, Pulsetto filed a declaratory judgment action against the Company in the United States District Court for the District
of New Jersey, captioned UAB Pulsetto v. electroCore, Inc., Civ. No. 25-10036 (D.N.J.), asserting that its non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation
product does not infringe the Company’s U.S. Patent No. 11,446,491 (the “491 Patent”).
On
July 16, 2025, the Company filed a responsive pleading, answering the complaint and asserting counterclaims, that Pulsetto’s non-invasive
vagus nerve stimulation product infringes the 491 Patent, as well as the Company’s U.S. Patent Nos. 8,948,873, 9,339,653, 10,874,857,
8,843,210, 9,242,092, 11,623,078, and 10,441,780, as well as claims that Pulsetto’s commercial conduct has infringed and continues
to infringe the Company’s Truvaga™ and gammaCore® trademarks, and committed acts of false advertising and unfair competition
in violation of state and federal law. On September 5, 2025, Pulsetto requested leave to file a motion to dismiss the Company’s
counterclaims for lack or jurisdiction and/or insufficient pleadings. The Company has opposed that request, which has not yet been considered
by the trial judge. On September 9, 2025, the court approved a schedule for discovery, and certain proceedings, filings, submissions,
motions, reports and conferences. The parties have exchanged initial requests for the production of documents relevant to the dispute.
Litigation
is inherently uncertain, expensive, and time-consuming. Adverse developments in this matter could include, among others, the court’s
dismissal, narrowing, or stay of some or all of our counterclaims; findings that Pulsetto does not infringe one or more of our asserted
patents or trademarks; invalidation, unenforceability, or a narrowing construction of one or more of our patents or trademark rights;
denial of requested remedies; or the imposition of limitations on our ability to assert, license, or enforce our intellectual property
and brand assets. Any such outcomes could reduce or eliminate competitive advantages, limit or delay our ability to protect our products
and brands, or encourage third parties to challenge or avoid our intellectual property rights.
Even
if we ultimately prevail, this litigation could divert management time and attention, require significant cash outlays for legal fees,
experts, and discovery, and disrupt our operations and strategic initiatives. We may also face reputational harm with customers, partners,
payors, regulators, and suppliers arising from the pendency or publicity of the dispute. Insurance, if available, may not cover all claims
or associated costs. The timing, scope, and outcome of the litigation remain uncertain, and any of the foregoing risks—individually
or in the aggregate—could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
The
ongoing U.S. federal government shutdown that began on October 1, 2025, and any future lapses in appropriations or related disruptions,
could materially and adversely affect our sales, collections, operations, product development and regulatory timelines.
Beginning
on October 1, 2025, the U.S. government shutdown led to certain regulatory agencies, such as the FDA and the SEC, furloughing critical
employees and curtailing their activities. Additionally, on October 10, 2025, the U.S. government implemented substantial layoffs and
workforce reductions in connection with the ongoing federal government shutdown, which has resulted in the suspension or delay of various
government-funded programs. Government shutdowns, lapses in appropriations, continuing resolutions, or related funding disruptions can
delay, reduce, or suspend procurement activities, new orders, contract awards and modifications, and pricing or volume negotiations.
They can also limit the availability of contracting officers and program personnel, impede access to government ordering portals, and
result in stop-work or similar directives affecting us or our contracting parties. In addition, shutdowns and related constraints on
federal operations can delay invoice processing and payment timing for delivered products and services. Even when shutdowns are relatively
short, backlogs and operational bottlenecks can persist after normal operations resume; if prolonged or recurrent, the cumulative effects
can be significant.
The
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is one of our largest customers, and we also sell our TAC-STIM product to the U.S. Air Force.
Any disruptions relating to the government shut down could reduce or defer sales to the VA and the Air Force, negatively affect our visibility
into demand, impair our ability to forecast and plan production and inventory, and adversely impact our revenues and margins. Shutdown-related
delays in invoice processing and payment timing could increase our accounts receivable and days sales outstanding, reduce operating cash
flows, and require us to draw on cash reserves, adjust working capital, extend supplier payment terms, or otherwise manage liquidity
in ways that could be unfavorable to our business.
29
Sales
cycles for government customers can be extended during and after shutdowns due to backlogs and competing priorities when operations resume.
Program-level funding may be reallocated or reduced, and unit-level purchasing may be delayed or constrained even after appropriations
are restored. For our TAC-STIM product sold to the U.S. Air Force, shutdowns may delay fielding and adoption, defer training or deployment
within units, and slow the pace of follow-on or expansion orders, any of which could adversely affect near-term and future revenue from
this program. Interruption in government operations may also delay or complicate renewals of existing contracts, on-ramping to new vehicles
or schedules, and the ability to qualify for or participate in pilots or evaluations that are often a precursor to broader adoption within
federal healthcare systems.
The
ability of the FDA to review and approve new products, to provide feedback on clinical trials and development programs, to meet with
sponsors and to otherwise review regulatory submissions can be affected by a variety of factors, including government budget and funding
levels, reductions in workforce, ability to hire and retain key personnel, and statutory, regulatory and policy changes. In addition,
there may be delays in necessary interactions with regulators, ethics committees and other important agencies and contractors due to
limitations in employee resources or forced furlough of government or contractor personnel. Government shutdowns, if prolonged, can significantly
impact the ability of government agencies upon which rely, such as the FDA and SEC, to timely review and process our regulatory submissions,
which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
The
duration and impact of any federal government shutdown or related disruption are inherently uncertain and outside our control. Even short
shutdowns can create backlogs and operational bottlenecks that persist for an extended period after normal operations resume. If shutdowns
are prolonged or recur, the cumulative effects on our government sales, receivable collections, product development and regulatory timelines
could be significant and may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
