Sales Deductions

Audit Matter Description

described in Note 3 to the financial statements under the caption “Revenue Recognition for Contracts with Customers,” revenues

from product sales are recognized net of reductions for estimated returns, chargebacks, distribution fees, prompt payment discounts,

state Medicaid and GPO fees (collectively, “sales deductions”), which are established at the time of sale.

the estimation of sales deductions was challenging because of the limited sales history of the Company’s products and the subjectivity

of certain assumptions required to estimate those amounts.

In particular, management estimates potential chargebacks, which relate to

price reductions below the estimated sales price that the wholesalers provide to certain customers, based on historical industry data

for competitive products and adjusted for actual historical experience.

In addition, management estimates its provision for product returns

based on prior experience with similar product launches and considers other factors such as levels of inventory in the distribution channel,

forecasted buying patterns, and product dating and expiration period.

The product sales deductions are estimated based on current contractual

and statutory requirements, market events and trends, and internal and external historical data.

the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

test management’s estimated product sales deductions, we obtained management’s calculations for the respective estimates

and performed the following procedures, among others.

We tested management’s estimation process for determining of product sales

discounts accruals by developing an independent expectation of the estimated accrual rate, including a comparison of rates used in management’s

forecast to rates in the underlying contracts and performing a retrospective review of assumptions to actual activity.

In addition, we

assessed subsequent events to determine whether there was any new information that would require adjustment to the initial accruals,

evaluated trends in actual sales and discount accrual balances, and compared cash receipts to product sales.

We also examined terms and

conditions for a sample of contracts with the Company’s customers, tested a sample of credits issued and payments made throughout

the year and agreed rates to underlying contract terms.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 1 — Company Overview

Eton is an innovative pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing treatments for rare diseases.

The Company currently has four commercial rare disease products:

ALKINDI SPRINKLE® for the treatment of adrenocortical insufficiency;

Carglumic Acid for the treatment of hyperammonemia due to NAGS deficiency;

Betaine Anhydrous for the treatment of homocystinuria;

and Nitisinone for the treatment of hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 (HT- 1 ).

The Company has three additional product candidates in late-stage development:

ET- 400, ET- 600, and ZENEO® hydrocortisone autoinjector.

Note 2 — Liquidity Considerations

As of December 31, 2023 , the Company had an accumulated deficit of $ 104,070 and for the year ended December 31, 2023 the Company had a net loss of $ 936 .

To date, the Company has generated revenues from multiple products and expects further growth in 2024 and beyond in accordance with additional market penetration from these products plus revenues from additional products where it anticipates FDA approval.

The Company currently believes its existing cash and cash equivalents of $ 21,388 as of December 31, 2023 will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.

This estimate is based on the Company’s current assumptions, including assumptions relating to estimated sales and its ability to manage its spending.

The Company could use its available capital resources sooner than currently expected.

Accordingly, the Company could seek

to obtain additional capital through equity financings, the issuance of debt or other arrangements.

However, there can be no assurance

that the Company will be able to raise additional capital if needed or under acceptable terms, if at all.

The sale of additional equity

may dilute existing stockholders and newly issued shares may contain senior rights and preferences compared to currently outstanding

common shares.

The Company’s existing long-term debt obligation contains covenants and limits the Company’s ability to pay

dividends or make other distributions to stockholders.

If the Company experiences delays in product sales growth and completing its product

development and obtaining regulatory approval for its other product candidates and is unable to obtain such additional financing, operations

would need to be scaled back or discontinued.

Under ASC 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the entity performs the following five steps:

(i) identify the contract(s) with a customer;

(ii) identify

the performance obligations in the contract;

(ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract;

(iii) determine the transaction price;

(iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance

obligations in the contract;

(iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract;

and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised

within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct.

The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation

when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.

Arrangements that include rights to additional goods or services that are exercisable

at a customer’s discretion are generally considered options.

The Company assesses whether these options provide a material right

to the customer and, if so, they are considered performance obligations.

The exercise of a material right is accounted for as a contract

modification for accounting purposes.

Company recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or

as) each performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time or over time, and if over time this is based on the use of an output

Company’s balance sheets.

Amounts not expected to be recognized as revenue within the twelve months following the balance sheet

date are classified as long-term deferred revenue, net of current portion.

Payments – If a commercial contract arrangement includes development and regulatory milestone payments, the Company will evaluate

whether the milestone conditions have been achieved and if it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur before

recognizing the associated revenue.

Milestone payments that are not within the Company’s control or the licensee’s control,

such as regulatory approvals, are generally not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received.

part of the process of preparing the Company’s financial statements, the Company must estimate the actual current tax liabilities

and assess temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes.

These differences result

in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the balance sheets.

The Company must assess the likelihood that the

deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not likely,

a valuation allowance must be established.

To the extent the Company establishes a valuation allowance or increase or decrease to this

allowance in a period, the impact will be included in income tax expense in the statements of operations.

As of December 31, 2022 and

2021, the Company has established a 100 % valuation reserve against its deferred tax assets.

Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC 740 - Income Taxes.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no unrecognized

tax benefits included in the balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate.

The Company’s practice is

to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties

in its balance sheets at December 31, 2022 or 2021, and has not recognized interest and penalties in the statements of operations for

the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company is subject to taxation in the United States and

certain individual states – primarily Illinois and Tennessee.

The Company’s tax losses from 2017 through 2022 are subject

to examination by the federal and state tax authorities due to the carryforward of unutilized net operating losses (“NOLs”).

accounting standards include guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements.

standards also prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement model for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken,

or expected to be taken, and provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods,

disclosure and transition.

The Company believes that the ultimate deductibility of all tax positions is highly certain, although there

is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.

As a result, no liability for uncertain tax positions was recorded as of December

31, 2022 or 2021.

Value Measurements

measure certain of our assets and liabilities at fair value.

Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset

or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Fair value accounting

requires characterization of the inputs used to measure fair value into a three-level fair value hierarchy as follows:

1 — Inputs based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

An active market is a market in

which transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

2 — Observable inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed

based on market data obtained from sources independent from the entity.

3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would

use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available.

value measurements are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement.

The Company’s assessment

of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, which may affect the valuation of the assets

and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The determination of the fair values stated below takes into

account the market for the Company’s financials, assets and liabilities, the associated credit risk and other factors as required.

The Company considers active markets as those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume

to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities

and long-term debt obligation.

The carrying amounts of these financial instruments, except for the long-term debt

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

As part of the process of preparing the Company’s financial statements, the Company must estimate the actual current tax liabilities and assess temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes.

These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the balance sheets.

The Company must assess the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not likely, a valuation allowance must be established.

To the extent the Company establishes a valuation allowance or increase or decrease to this allowance in a period, the impact will be included in income tax expense in the statements of operations.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022 , the Company has established a 100 % valuation reserve against its deferred tax assets.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC 740 - Income Taxes.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022 , there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate.

The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties in its balance sheets at December 31, 2023 or 2022 , and has not recognized interest and penalties in the statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 .

As of December 31, 2023 , the Company is subject to taxation in the United States and certain individual states – primarily Illinois and Tennessee.

The Company’s tax losses from 2017 through 2023 are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities due to the carryforward of unutilized net operating losses (“NOLs”).

Current accounting standards include guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements.

Such standards also prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement model for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, and provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

The Company believes that the ultimate deductibility of all tax positions is highly certain, although there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.

As a result, no liability for uncertain tax positions was recorded as of December 31, 2023 or 2022 .

Fair Value Measurements

We measure certain of our assets and liabilities at fair value.

Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Fair value accounting requires characterization of the inputs used to measure fair value into a three -level fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

An active market is a market in which transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2 – Observable inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent from the entity.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available.

Eton Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Fair value measurements are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement.

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, which may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The determination of the fair values stated below takes into account the market for the Company’s financials, assets and liabilities, the associated credit risk and other factors as required.

The Company considers active markets as those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

The Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and long-term debt obligation.

The carrying amounts of these financial instruments, except for the long-term debt obligation, approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company, the carrying value of the long-term debt obligation approximate its fair value.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No.

2020 - 04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848 ):

Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and in January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No.

2021 - 01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848 ):

Scope ("ASU 2021 - 01" ).

2020 - 04 and ASU No.

2021 - 01 provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform.

2020 - 04 and ASU No.

2021 - 01 are effective upon issuance for contract modifications and hedging relationships, and the Company is allowed to elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022.

In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No.

2022 - 06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848 ):

Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 , which extends the temporary accounting rules under Topic 848 to December 31, 2024.

The Company transitioned to the secured overnight financing rate ("Term SOFR") from LIBOR on August 22, 2023.

There are no material impacts to the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016 - 13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 316 ):

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which modifies the measurement and recognition of credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments.

The new standard requires the use of forward-looking expected credit loss models based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount, which may result in earlier recognition of credit losses under the new standard.

The new guidance also modifies the impairment models for available-for-sale debt securities and for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination.

Subsequent to the issuance of ASU No.

2016 - 13, the FASB issued ASU No.

2018 - 19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses .

This ASU does not change the core principle of the guidance in ASU No.

2016 - 13, instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the credit losses standard.

The FASB also subsequently issued ASU No.

2019 - 04 which did not change the core principle of the guidance in ASU No.

2016 - 13 but clarified that expected recoveries of amounts previously written off and expected to be written off should be included in the valuation account and should not exceed amounts previously written off and expected to be written off.

The Company prospectively adopted this guidance on the effective date of January 1, 2023 and the adoption did not have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements and resulted in no adjustment to the Company’s prior year earnings.

November 13, 2019, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “SWK Credit Agreement”) with SWK Holdings Corporation

(“SWK”) which provided for up to $ 10,000 in financing.

The Company received proceeds of $ 5,000 at closing and was able to

borrow an additional $ 5,000 upon the FDA approval of a second product developed by the Company, excluding EM-100.

In March 2020, in conjunction

with the Company’s ALKINDI SPRINKLE® product licensing agreement (see Note 14) and the Company’s March 2020 sale of

shares of its common stock (see Note 6), the Company and SWK amended the SWK Credit Agreement.

The amendment provided the Company with

the option to immediately draw $ 2,000 and the ability to borrow an additional $ 3,000 based upon the FDA approval of EM-100 and ALKINDI

SPRINKLE® which subsequently occurred in September 2020.

Accordingly, the Company borrowed an additional $ 2,000 on August 11, 2020.

The term of the SWK Credit Agreement is for five years and borrowings bear interest at a rate of LIBOR 3-month plus 10.0 %, subject to

a stated LIBOR floor rate of 2.0 %.

A 2.0 % unused credit limit fee is assessed during the first twelve months after the date of the SWK

Credit Agreement and loan fees include a 5.0 % exit fee based on the principal amounts drawn which is payable at the end of the term of

the SWK Credit Agreement.

The Company was required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $ 3,000 , only pay interest on the debt until

February 2022 and then pay 5.5% of the loan principal balance commencing on February 15, 2022 and then every three months thereafter

until November 13, 2024 at which time the remaining principal balance is due.

Borrowings under the SWK Credit Agreement are secured by

the Company’s assets.

The SWK Credit Agreement contains customary default provisions and covenants which include limits on additional

indebtedness.

In March 2020, SWK provided a waiver for the Company to obtain loans with the Small Business Association.

In February 2021,

the Company notified SWK that it will not require additional borrowing capacity under the SWK Credit Agreement and terminated the additional

borrowing capacity with SWK .

connection with the initial $ 5,000 borrowed in November 2019, the Company issued warrants to SWK to purchase 51,239 shares of the Company’s

common stock with an exercise price of $ 5.86 per share.

The relative fair value of these 51,239 warrants was $ 226 and was estimated using

the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions:

April 5, 2022, the Company and SWK entered into an amendment to the SWK Credit Agreement which allowed for a deferral of loan principal

payments until May 2023 and reduced the interest rate to LIBOR 3-month plus 8.0 %, subject to a stated LIBOR floor rate of 2.0 %.

In accordance

with the change, the Company has classified $ 1,033 as principal due in the next 12 months and the remainder classified as long-term debt

in its balance sheet at December 31, 2022.

Because LIBOR was intended to be phased out by the end of 2021, future borrowings under our

Credit Agreement could be subject to reference rates other than LIBOR.

However, the cessation date of LIBOR has been deferred to June

30, 2023 and we do not expect the planned discontinuation of LIBOR to have a material impact on interest payments incurred under the

SWK Credit Agreement.

The Company is in discussions with SWK regarding an alternate reference rate.

Expected Term — The Company has opted to use the “simplified method” for estimating the expected term of options granted to employees and directors, whereby the expected term equals the arithmetic average of the vesting term and the original contractual term of the option (generally 10 years).

The expected term of options granted to non-employees equals the contractual life of the options.

Volatility — Due to the Company’s limited operating history and a lack of Company-specific historical and implied volatility

data, the Company has based its estimate of expected volatility on the historical volatility of a group of similar companies that are

publicly traded.

The historical volatility data was computed using the daily closing prices for the selected companies’ shares

during the equivalent period of the calculated expected term of the stock-based awards.

The Company has also applied some limited weighting

to its own volatility.

Interest Rate — The risk-free rate assumption is based on the U.S.

Treasury instruments with maturities similar to the expected

term of the Company’s stock options.

Dividend — The Company has not issued any dividends in its history and does not expect to issue dividends over the life of the

options and therefore has estimated the dividend yield to be zero.

value of Common Stock —The Company uses the closing stock price on the date of grant for the fair value of the common stock.

of December 31, 2022, there was a total of $ 3,868 of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested stock option awards which

will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2 years.

Company recognizes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for substantially all leases,

including operating leases, and separates lease components from non-lease components related to its office space lease.

January 12, 2018, the Company signed an amended lease agreement to lease additional office space adjacent to its current corporate office

space in Deer Park, Illinois.

The amended lease was scheduled to expire at the end of March 2021.

In October 2020, the Company renewed

its office lease for a two-year period through March 31, 2023 and recorded $ 195 in ROU assets and $ 195 in operating lease liabilities

in association with the lease extension.

In November 2022, the Company renewed its office lease for a two-year period through March 31,

2025 and recorded $ 188 in ROU assets and $ 188 in operating lease liabilities in association with the lease extension.

On March 7, 2018,

the Company entered into a lease for laboratory space at a complex in Lake Zurich, Illinois.

The lease commenced on March 7, 2018 and

was scheduled to expire in February 2021.

In November 2020, this laboratory lease was extended to June 2021 and was not extended after

that date as the Company completed an evaluation its laboratory operations requirements and determined it would discontinue the laboratory

activities and outsource its requirements.

Company does not have any lease contracts that contain:

(1) an option to extend that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, (2)

an option to terminate that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or (3) an option to extend (or not to terminate) in which

exercise of the option is controlled by the lessor.

Additionally, the Company does not have any leases with residual value guarantees

or material restrictive covenants.

Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets have been recorded based on the present

value of the future lease payments over the expected lease term.

One of the Company’s lease agreements contains provisions for

escalating rent payments over the term of the lease.

Company’s leases do not contain readily determinable implicit discount rates, and therefore, the Company was required to use its

incremental borrowing rate of 7.8 % to discount the future lease payments based on information available at lease commencement.

2020, the new discount rate for the office lease extension was estimated at 5.4 %.

In November 2022, the new discount rate for an additional

office lease extension was estimated at 8.6 %.

The incremental borrowing rate was estimated by determining the rate of interest that the

Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar

economic environment.

Company’s operating lease cost as presented in the “Research and Development” and “General and Administrative”

In March 2018, the Company entered into a lease for laboratory space at a complex in Lake Zurich, Illinois.

The lease commenced in March 2018.

In November 2020, this laboratory lease was extended to June 2021 and was not extended after that date as the Company completed an evaluation its laboratory operations requirements and determined it would discontinue the laboratory activities and outsource its requirements.

The Company does not have any lease contracts that contain:

( 1 ) an option to extend that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, ( 2 ) an option to terminate that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or ( 3 ) an option to extend (or not to terminate) in which exercise of the option is controlled by the lessor.

Additionally, the Company does not have any leases with residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets have been recorded based on the present value of the future lease payments over the expected lease term.

One of the Company’s lease agreements contains provisions for escalating rent payments over the term of the lease.

The Company’s leases do not contain readily determinable implicit discount rates, and therefore, the Company was required to use its incremental borrowing rate of 7.8 % to discount the future lease payments based on information available at lease commencement.

In October 2020, the new discount rate for the office lease extension was estimated at 5.4 %.

In November 2022, the new discount rate for an additional office lease extension was estimated at 8.6 %.

The incremental borrowing rate was estimated by determining the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.
