NOTE
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
following represents an update for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 to the significant accounting policies described
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Risks,
Uncertainties and Liquidity
The
Company is subject to certain regulatory standards, approvals, guidelines and inspections which could impact the Company’s ability
to make, dispense, and sell certain products. If the Company was required to cease compounding and selling certain products as a result
of regulatory guidelines or inspections, this may have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity and results
of operations.
Segments
As
a result of shifts in the Company’s strategic plans to further focus on growing the Company’s ImprimisRx business and
suspension of activities related to starting up development-stage pharmaceutical companies, along with changes to the
Company’s organizational and internal reporting structure, beginning in January 2022, management no longer evaluates the
Company’s business in two segments and instead focuses on the performance of the business as a single operating
business.

Basic
and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share
Basic
net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to
common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, such as stock options, restricted
stock units (“RSUs”) and warrants, outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares (using the treasury stock method)
from stock options, unvested RSUs and warrants were 5,622,997 and 5,657,046 at September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Included in
the basic and diluted net loss per share calculation were RSUs awarded to directors that had vested, but the issuance and delivery of
the shares are deferred until the director resigns. The number of shares underlying vested RSUs at September 30, 2022 and 2021 was 303,454
and 258,117 , respectively.
The
following table shows the computation of basic net loss per share of common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022

Investment
in Eton Pharmaceuticals, Inc .
As
of September 30, 2022, the Company owned 1,982,000 shares of Eton common stock, which represents less than 10 % of the equity interests
of Eton. At September 30, 2022, the fair market value of Eton’s common stock was $ 2.10 per share. In accordance with the Accounting
Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities , the Company recorded an unrealized investment loss from its Eton common stock position of $ 1,031,000
and $ 4,341,000 , and $ 2,220,000 and $ 8,639,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, related
to the change in fair market value of its investment in Eton during the measurement period. As of September 30, 2022, the fair market
value of the Company’s investment in Eton was $ 4,162,000 .
Investment
in Melt Pharmaceuticals, Inc. – Related Party
The
Company owns 3,500,000 shares of common stock of Melt (representing approximately 46 % of the equity interests as of September 30, 2022). The Company analyzes its investment in Melt and related agreements on a regular basis to evaluate its position of variable interests
in Melt. The Company has determined that it does not have the ability to control Melt, however it has the ability to exercise significant
influence over the operating and financial decisions of Melt and uses the equity method of accounting for this investment. Under this
method, the Company recognizes earnings and losses in Melt in its condensed consolidated financial statements and adjusts the carrying
amount of its investment in Melt accordingly. Any intra-entity profits and losses are eliminated. During the year ended December 31,
2021, the Company reduced the carrying value of its common stock investment in Melt to $ 0 as a result of the Company recording its share
of equity losses in Melt since its deconsolidation in 2019. As of September 30, 2022 and at the time of entering into the Melt Loan Agreement
(see Note 4), the Company owned 100 % of Melt’s indebtedness. Following the reduction of the carrying value of the Company’s
common stock investment in Melt to $ 0 , the Company began recording 100 % of the equity method losses of Melt, based on its ownership of
Melt’s total indebtedness. In addition, the Company treats interest paid in kind on the Melt Loan Agreement as an in-substance
capital contribution and reduces its investment in Melt accordingly, rather than recording interest income. The Company has no other
requirements to advance funds to Melt.

Investment
in Surface Ophthalmics, Inc. – Related Party
The
Company owns 3,500,000 common shares of Surface (representing approximately 20 % of Surface’s equity interests following the closing
of a round of financing completed by Surface in July 2021) and uses the equity method of accounting for this investment, as
management has determined that the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial decisions
of Surface. Under this method, the Company recognizes earnings and losses in Surface in its consolidated financial statements and adjusts
the carrying amount of its investment in Surface accordingly. The Company’s share of earnings and losses are based on the Company’s
ownership interest of Surface. Any intra-entity profits and losses are eliminated. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company
reduced its common stock investment in Surface to $ 0 as a result of the Company recording its share of equity losses of Surface. The
Company has no other investments in Surface.

Impairment
of Equity Method Investments and Note Receivable
On
a quarterly basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of the Company’s equity method
investments and note receivable may be other than temporarily impaired. Indicators include financial condition, operating performance,
and near-term prospects of the investee. To the extent indicators suggest that a loss in value may have occurred, the Company will evaluate
both quantitative and qualitative factors to determine if the loss in value is other than temporary. If a potential loss in value is
determined to be other than temporary, the Company will recognize an impairment loss based on the estimated fair value of the equity
method investments and note receivable. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, no indicators of impairment existed.
NOTE
3. REVENUES
The
Company accounts for contracts with customers in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenues
from Contracts with Customers . The Company has three primary streams of revenue: (1) revenue recognized from sales of products through
its pharmacy and outsourcing facility and sales of branded products to wholesalers through a third-party logistics (“3PL”)
partner, (2) revenue recognized from a commission agreement with a third party, and (3) revenue recognized from intellectual property
licenses and asset purchase agreements.
Product
Revenues
The
Company sells prescription medications directly through its pharmacy, outsourcing facility and 3PL partner. Revenue from the Company’s
pharmacy services includes: (i) the portion of the price the client pays directly to the Company, net of any volume-related or other
discounts paid back to the client, (ii) the price paid to the Company by individuals, and (iii) customer copayments made directly to
the pharmacy network. Sales taxes are not included in revenue. Following the core principles of ASC 606, the Company has identified the
following:
1.
Identify
the contract(s) with a customer : A contract is deemed to exist when the customer places an order through receipt of a prescription,
via an online order or via receipt of a purchase order from a customer. For branded products, orders are received through the Company’s
3PL partner, and the customer takes title of the products via formal purchase orders placed and fulfilled.
9
2.
Identify
the performance obligations in the contract: Obligations for fulfillment of the Company’s
contracts consist of delivering the product to customers at their specified destination.
ASU 2016-10 was issued in April 2016 and amended ASC 606 for shipping and handling activities
as follows: If the customer takes control of the goods after shipment, shipping and handling
activities would always be considered a fulfillment activity and not treated as a separate
performance obligation. If the customer takes control of the goods before shipment, entities
must make an accounting policy election to treat shipping and handling activities as either
a fulfillment cost or as a separate performance obligation. The Company has elected to treat
its shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost.
3.
Determine
the transaction price: The transaction price is based on an amount that reflects the
consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled, net of accruals for estimated
rebates, wholesaler chargebacks, discounts and other deductions (collectively, sales deductions)
and an estimate for returns and replacements established at the time of sale. The Company
utilizes the services of a third-party professional services firm to estimate rebates and
chargebacks associated with sales of its branded products. The transfer of promised goods
is satisfied within a year, and therefore there are no significant financing components.
There is no non-cash consideration related to product sales.
4.
Allocate the
transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract: Given that there is only one performance obligation for
product sales, no allocation is necessary.
5.
Recognize
revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation: Revenue from products is recognized upon transfer of control
of a product to a customer. This generally occurs upon shipment unless contractual terms with a customer state that transfer of control
occurs at delivery.
Commission
Revenues
The
Company has entered into an agreement whereby it is paid a fee calculated based on sales the Company generates from a pharmaceutical
product that is owned by a third party. The revenue earned from this arrangement is recognized, at which point there is no future performance
obligation required by the Company and no consequential continuing involvement on the Company’s part to recognize the associated
revenue.
Revenues
From Transfer of Acquired Product Profit
The
Company entered into an agreement whereby it purchased the exclusive commercial rights to assets
associated with certain ophthalmic products from another pharmaceutical company (the “Seller”). During a temporary, six month
transition period, the Seller continued to manufacture and market these products and transfer the net profit from the sale of
the products to the Company. The revenue recognized by the Company from the transfer of net profit was recognized at the time profit
from the product sales were calculated by the Seller and confirmed by the Company, typically on a monthly basis, at which point there
is no future performance obligation required by the Company and no consequential continuing involvement on the Company’s part to
recognize the associated revenue. On a quarterly basis, the Seller invoiced the Company for all credits and reimbursements (“Chargebacks”)
made to customers related to the products. The Company used historical actual experience to estimate Chargebacks associated with the
net profit transferred. The estimate is recorded as a reduction in revenues in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements
of operations and accounts receivable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at the time the revenue is recognized.
Intellectual
Property License Revenues
The
Company currently holds five intellectual property licenses and related agreements pursuant to which the Company has agreed to license
or sell to a customer with the right to access the Company’s intellectual property. License arrangements may consist of non-refundable
upfront license fees, data transfer fees, research reimbursement payments, exclusive license rights to patented or patent pending compounds,
technology access fees, and various performance or sales milestones. These arrangements can be multiple-element arrangements, the revenue
of which is recognized at the point in time that the performance obligation is met.
Non-refundable
fees that are not contingent on any future performance by the Company and require no consequential continuing involvement on the part
of the Company are recognized as revenue when the license term commences and the licensed data, technology, compounded drug preparation
and/or other deliverable is delivered. Such deliverables may include physical quantities of compounded drug preparations, design of the
compounded drug preparations and structure-activity relationships, the conceptual framework and mechanism of action, and rights to the
patents or patent applications for such compounded drug preparations. The Company defers recognition of non-refundable fees if it has
continuing performance obligations without which the technology, right, product or service conveyed in conjunction with the non-refundable
fee has no utility to the licensee and that are separate and independent of the Company’s performance under the other elements
of the arrangement. In addition, if the Company’s continued involvement is required, through research and development services
that are related to its proprietary know-how and expertise of the delivered technology or can only be performed by the Company, then
such non-refundable fees are deferred and recognized over the period of continuing involvement. Guaranteed minimum annual royalties are
recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term.

NOTE
12. DEBT
8.625%
Senior Notes Due 2026
In
April 2021, the Company closed an offering of $ 50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior notes due April 2026, and in May
2021 issued an additional $ 5,000,000 of such notes pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional
notes (collectively, the “April Notes”). The April Notes were sold to investors at a par value of $ 25.00 per April Note and
the offering resulted in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $ 51,909,000 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions
and expenses of $ 3,091,000 . In June 2021, in a further issuance of the April Notes, the Company sold an additional $ 20,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of such notes (the “June Notes,” and together with the April Notes, the “Notes”), at a price
of $ 25.75 per June Note, with interest of $ 278,000 on the June Notes being accrued from April 20, 2021 as of the date of issuance. The
June offering resulted in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $ 19,164,000 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions
and expenses of $ 1,158,000 and a premium on note issuance of $ 322,000 . The June Notes are treated as a single series with the April Notes
under the indenture governing the April Notes, dated as of April 20, 2021, and have the same terms as the April Notes (other than the
initial offering price and issue date). T he Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the
Company and rank equally in right of payment with all of our other existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.
The Notes are effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness and
structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company’s subsidiaries, including trade payables. The
Notes bear interest at a rate of 8.625 % per annum. Interest on the Notes is payable quarterly in arrears on January 31, April 30, July
31 and October 31 of each year, commencing on July 31, 2021. The Notes will mature on April 30, 2026 . The issuance
costs were recorded as a debt discount and are being amortized as interest expense, net of the amortization of the premium on note issuance,
over the term of the Notes using the effective interest rate method.
Prior
to February 1, 2026, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption
price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed , plus a make-whole amount, if any, plus accrued and unpaid interest
to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The Company may redeem the Notes for cash in whole or in part at any time at our option on
or after February 1, 2026 and prior to maturity, at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest
to, but excluding, the date of redemption. On and after any redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the redeemed Notes.
Interest
expense related to the Notes totaled $ 1,814,000 and $ 5,436,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively,
and $ 1,464,000 and $ 2,930,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and included amortization of debt
issuance costs and discount of $ 197,000 and $ 585,000 for three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and $ 197,000 and
$ 389,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

Stock
Option Plan
On
September 17, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the Company’s 2007 Incentive Stock and Awards
Plan, which was subsequently amended on November 5, 2008, February 26, 2012, July 18, 2012, May 2, 2013 and September 27, 2013 (as amended,
the “2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan reached its term in September 2017, and we can no longer issue additional awards under this
plan; however, options previously issued under the 2007 Plan will remain outstanding until they are exercised, reach their maturity or
are otherwise cancelled/forfeited. On June 13, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the Company’s
2017 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan which was subsequently amended on June 3, 2021 (as amended, the “2017 Plan” together
with the 2007 Plan, the “Plans”). As of September 30, 2022, the 2017 Plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of 6,000,000
shares of the Company’s common stock. The purposes of the Plans are to attract and retain directors, officers, consultants, advisors
and employees whose services are considered valuable, to encourage a sense of proprietorship and to stimulate an active interest of such
persons in the Company’s development and financial success. Under the Plans, the Company is authorized to issue incentive stock
options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, non-qualified stock options, restricted
stock units and restricted stock. The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.
The Company had 2,058,280 shares available for future issuances under the 2017 Plan at September 30, 2022.

The
aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax amount of the proceeds, net of exercise price, which would
have been received by option holders if all option holders had exercised and immediately sold all shares underlying options with an exercise
price lower than the market price on September 30, 2022, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $ 12.07 on
that date.
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company granted stock options to certain employees. The stock options were granted with
an exercise price equal to the current market price of the Company’s common stock, as reported by the securities exchange on which
the common stock was then listed, at the grant date and have contractual terms of ten years . Vesting terms for options granted to employees
during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 included the following vesting schedule: 25% of the shares subject to the option
vest and become exercisable on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 75% of the shares subject to the option vest
and become exercisable quarterly in equal installments thereafter over three years . Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting
if there is a change in control (as defined in the Plans) and in the event of certain modifications to the option award agreement.
The
fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The expected term
of options granted to employees and directors was determined in accordance with the “simplified approach,” as the Company
has limited, relevant, historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The expected risk-free
interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time
of the grant. The financial statement effect of forfeitures is estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, if the actual
effect differs from those estimates. For option grants to employees and directors, the Company assigns a forfeiture factor of 10 %. These
factors could change in the future, which would affect the determination of stock-based compensation expense in future periods. Utilizing
these assumptions, the fair value is determined at the date of grant.
The
table below illustrates the fair value per share determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions
used for valuing options granted to employees:

Legal
General
and Other
In
the ordinary course of business, the Company may face various claims brought by third parties and it may, from time to time, make claims
or take legal actions to assert its rights, including intellectual property disputes, contractual disputes and other commercial disputes.
Any of these claims could subject the Company to litigation.
Product
and Professional Liability
Product
and professional liability litigation represents an inherent risk to all firms in the pharmaceutical and pharmacy industry. We utilize
traditional third-party insurance policies with regard to our product and professional liability claims. Such insurance coverage at any
given time reflects current market conditions, including cost and availability, when the policy is written.
20
Indemnities
In
addition to the indemnification provisions contained in the Company’s governing documents, the Company generally enters into separate
indemnification agreements with each of the Company’s directors and officers. These agreements require the Company, among other
things, to indemnify the director or officer against specified expenses and liabilities, such as attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines
and settlements, paid by the individual in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the individual’s status
or service as the Company’s director or officer, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct or conduct that is knowingly
fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, and to advance expenses incurred by the individual in connection with any proceeding against the
individual with respect to which the individual may be entitled to indemnification by the Company. The Company also indemnifies its lessors
in connection with its facility leases for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. These indemnities do not provide for
any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not incurred
any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheets.

Asset
Purchase, License and Related Agreements
The
Company has acquired and sourced intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from certain inventors and related
parties (the “Inventors”) through multiple asset purchase agreements, license agreements, strategic agreements and commission
agreements. In general, these agreements provide that the Inventors will cooperate with the Company in obtaining patent protection for
the acquired intellectual property and that the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop and commercialize
a product based on the acquired intellectual property. In addition, the Company has acquired a right of first refusal on additional intellectual
property and drug development opportunities presented by these Inventors.
In
consideration for the acquisition of the intellectual property rights, the Company is obligated to make payments to the Inventors based
on the completion of certain milestones, generally consisting of: (1) a payment payable within 30 days after the issuance of the first
patent in the United States arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (2) a payment payable within 30 days after the
Company files the first investigational new drug application (“IND”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”)
for the first product arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (3) for certain of the Inventors, a payment payable within
30 days after the Company files the first new drug application with the FDA for the first product arising from the acquired intellectual
property (if any); and (4) certain royalty payments based on the net receipts received by the Company in connection with the sale or
licensing of any product based on the acquired intellectual property (if any), after deducting (among other things) the Company’s
development costs associated with such product. If, following five years after the date of the applicable asset purchase agreement, the
Company either (a) for certain of the Inventors, has not filed an IND or, for the remaining Inventors, has not initiated a study where
data is derived, or (b) has failed to generate royalty payments to the Inventors for any product based on the acquired intellectual property,
the Inventors may terminate the applicable asset purchase agreement and request that the Company re-assign the acquired technology to
the Inventors. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, $ 185,000 and $ 695,000 were incurred under these agreements
as royalty expenses, respectively, and $ 285,000 and $ 778,000 during the same periods in 2021, respectively.

Eyepoint
Termination
Following
the preliminary Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System (HOPPS) rule proposed by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS) in July of 2022, which did not contain an extension of the pass-through payment period for Dexycu beyond December 31,
2022, the Company entered into a Mutual Termination Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with Eyepoint on October 7,
2022, pursuant to which Eyepoint and the Company agreed (a) that the Company will continue to support the sale of Dexycu through the
fourth quarter of 2022, consistent with the Company’s level of effort during the January through June 2022 period, (b) to

terminate the Dexycu Agreement, along with ancillary letter agreements, effective January 1, 2023.
Divestment
of Non-Ophthalmology Revenues
In
October 2022, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company (“Imprimis”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the
“RPC Agreement”) with Innovation Compounding Pharmacy, LLC (the “Buyer”). The closing of the RPC Agreement
was made effective on September 30, 2022; however, control of the assets transferred to the Buyer, and a closing payment was made,
in October 2022. Under the terms of the RPC Agreement, Imprimis agreed to sell substantially all of its assets associated with its
non-ophthalmology related compounding product line, including but not limited to, certain intellectual property rights, customer
lists, databases, and formulations (the “RPC Assets”). The Buyer agreed to make offers of employment to six of the
Company’s employees that were responsible for the sales activities associated with the RPC Assets. In connection with the RPC
Agreement, Imprimis entered into a separate transition services agreement with the Buyer related to providing on going services,
such as procuring and dispensing prescription orders associated with RPC Assets. The Company expects Imprimis to provide transition
services to the Buyer for up to six months following the effective date of the RPC Agreement. Under the terms of the RPC Agreement,
the Buyer paid Imprimis an aggregate cash amount of $ 6,000,000
in October 2022. In addition, the Buyer is obligated to pay up to $ 4,500,000
to Imprimis based on mutually agreed upon revenue milestones during the calendar year 2023. The Company determined that the
disposal of the related net assets does not qualify for reporting as a discontinued operation because it does not represent a
strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results.

Overview
We
are an eyecare pharmaceutical company exclusively focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of innovative ophthalmic
therapies that are accessible and affordable.
The
Company owns non-controlling equity positions in Surface Ophthalmics, Inc. (“Surface”) and Melt Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Melt”),
both companies that began as subsidiaries of Harrow. Harrow also owns royalty rights in various drug candidates being developed by Surface
and Melt.
24
ImprimisRx
ImprimisRx
is our ophthalmology-focused prescription pharmaceutical compounding business. From its inception in 2014, ImprimisRx, which
consists of integrated research and development, production, dispensing/distribution, sales, marketing, and customer service
capabilities, has offered physician customers and their patients access to critical medicines to meet their clinical needs.
Initially, ImprimisRx focused exclusively on compounded medications to serve needs unmet by commercially available medications. We
also make these unique formulations available at prices that are, in most cases, lower than non-customized commercial medications.
ImprimisRx’s customer base has grown to include more than 10,000 U.S. eyecare dedicated prescribers and institutions. Our
current ophthalmology formulary includes over twenty compounded formulations, many of which are patented or patent-pending, and are
customizable for the specific needs of a patient. Some of our compounded medications are various combinations of drugs formulated
into one bottle and others are preservative free formulations. Depending on the formulation, the regulations of a specific state,
and ultimately, the needs of the patient, ImprimisRx products may be dispensed (a) as patient-specific medications from our 503A
pharmacy; or, (b) for in-office use made according to current good manufacturing practices (or “cGMPs”) or other
FDA-guidance documents, in our FDA-registered New Jersey outsourcing facility (“NJOF”). In August 2020, ImprimisRx
entered into a Commercial Alliance Agreement (the “Dexycu Agreement”) with Eyepoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
(“Eyepoint”), pursuant to which Eyepoint granted ImprimisRx the right to promote DEXYCU® (dexamethasone intraocular
suspension) 9% for the treatment of post-operative inflammation following ocular surgery in the United States. Pursuant to the
Dexycu Agreement, Eyepoint pays ImprimisRx a fee that is calculated based on the quarterly sales of DEXYCU in the U.S. In October
2022, we entered into a mutual termination agreement with Eyepoint, pursuant to which we agreed to (a) continue to support the sale
of DEXYCU through the fourth quarter of 2022, consistent with our level of effort during the January through June 2022 period, (b)
decrease the required minimum quarterly sales levels based on DEXYCU unit demand for the fourth quarter of 2022, and (c) terminate
the Dexycu Agreement, along with ancillary letter agreements, effective January 1, 2023. As
a result, we expect our commissions from sales of DEXYCU to decrease through the end of
2022 and cease in 2023; however such effect is not expected to have a material impact on our business, financial statements and cash
flows.
Branded
Pharmaceuticals and Drug Candidates
Over
the past two years, in order to more fully serve the needs of our growing customer base, we have invested in broadening our product
portfolio to include FDA-approved products. Our investments in this regard have led to the pursuit and completion of several
announced transactions, and others we are continuing to pursue, all of which are focused in eyecare pharmaceuticals. We believe that
our continued investments in these and other products will result in our ability to provide more physician prescribers and their
patients with access to a complete portfolio of affordable eyecare pharmaceuticals to address their clinical needs.
IOPIDINE®,
MAXITROL®, MOXEZA®
In
December 2021, we acquired U.S. commercial rights to four FDA-approved ophthalmic medicines: IOPIDINE 1% and 0.5% (apraclonidine hydrochloride);
MAXITROL (neomycin/polymyxin B/dexamethasone) ophthalmic suspension; and MOXEZA (moxifloxacin hydrochloride). We believe by expanding
our product portfolio to include branded FDA-approved products, we will be uniquely positioned to leverage our commercial platform to
introduce unique lifecycle management strategies that could grow sales and address needs of our customers that we are unable to meet
with our other compounded product offerings.
At
the time of closing the acquisition of the four products, we agreed to a transitional period with the seller, which lasted nine months
following the closing of the transaction. During the transition period, the seller continued to sell the products and transferred the
net profit from those sales to us. Following the transition period which ended in June 2022, we made IOPIDINE 1% and MAXITROL commercially
available, and expect to re-launch MOXEZA at a later date.
IHEEZO TM
In
July 2021, we acquired the exclusive marketing and supply rights to IHEEZO (chloroprocaine hydrochloride ophthalmic gel) 3% in the U.S.
and Canada for ocular surface anesthesia from Sintetica S.A. (“Sintetica”). The FDA approved IHEEZO for ocular surface anesthesia
in September 2022. IHEEZO is protected by an Orange Book listed patent that is valid until 2038. We expect to commercially launch IHEEZO
in the U.S. market during 2023.
MAQ-100
In
August 2021, we acquired the exclusive marketing rights to MAQ-100 in the U.S. and Canada from Wakamoto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Wakamoto”).
MAQ-100 is a preservative-free triamcinolone acetonide ophthalmic injection drug candidate. MAQ-100 is marketed and sold by Wakamoto
in Japan as MaQaid®. Following Japan’s Ministry of Health Labor and Welfare (“MHLW”) approval, MaQaid was launched
in Japan in 2010, indicated as an intravitreal injection for visualization for vitrectomy. Since its initial MHLW approval, the indication
for MaQaid was expanded to include (a) treatments for alleviation of diabetic macular edema, (b) macular edema associated with retinal
vein occlusion (or RVO), and (c) non-infectious uveitis. We intend to leverage the clinical data used for Japanese market approval of
MaQaid to support a clinical program and U.S. market NDA submission of MAQ-100 for visualization during vitrectomy. In August 2022, we
had a Type B meeting with the FDA to discuss our planned clinical program for MAQ-100. The FDA provided clarity on what would be required
for a future NDA filing of MAQ-100, and we are working with Wakamoto accordingly in an effort to efficiently advance the clinical program
of MAQ-100.
We
expect to continue to acquire and/or develop additional FDA-approved/approvable ophthalmic products and product candidates that will
allow us to leverage our commercial infrastructure to promote, sell, and ultimately bring these products to market.
25
Carved-Out
Businesses (De-Consolidated Businesses)
We
have ownership interests in Surface, Melt, and Eton Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Eton”) and hold royalty interests in some of
Surface’s and Melt’s drug candidates. These companies are pursuing market approval for their drug candidates under the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act,
including in some instances under the abbreviated pathway described in Section 505(b)(2), which permits the submission of an NDA where
at least some of the information required for approval comes from studies not conducted by or for the applicant and for which the applicant
has not obtained a right of reference.
Noncontrolling
Equity Interests
Surface
Ophthalmics, Inc.
Surface
is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on development and commercialization of innovative therapeutics for ocular surface
diseases.
● SURF-100
for Chronic Dry Eye Disease: Surface completed its 350-patient Phase 2 clinical trial,
comparing five active arms of SURF-100 study drugs with the current market-leading prescription
chronic dry eye treatments. According to Surface, the SURF-100 Phase 2 clinical trial achieved
positive results for both signs and symptoms of chronic dry eye disease, as well as generating
positive data on onset and duration of action.
● SURF-200
for Acute Dry Eye : Surface has completed enrollment of its Phase 2 clinical trial for
SURF-200 and expects to announce top-line results later this year.
● SURF-201
for Pain and Inflammation Following Ocular Surgery : According to the Surface results,
SURF-201 was dosed twice daily, met its primary endpoints of absence of inflammation at both
Day 8 and Day 15 and was found to be safe and well-tolerated by the patient group. In addition,
a secondary endpoint showed almost 90% of patients given SURF-201 were pain free at Day 15.
In
2018, Surface closed an offering of its Series A Preferred Stock. At that time, we lost our controlling interest and deconsolidated Surface
from our consolidated financial statements. During May, June and July of 2021, Surface closed an offering of its preferred stock at a
purchase price of $4.50 per share resulting in gross proceeds to Surface of approximately $25,000,000 (the “Surface Series B Offering”).
We own 3,500,000 shares of Surface common stock, which was approximately 20% of Surface’s equity and voting interests as of September
30, 2022. Harrow owns mid-single digit royalty rights on net sales of SURF-100, SURF-200 and SURF-201.
Melt
Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Melt
is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary non-intravenous, sedation
and anesthesia therapeutics for human medical procedures in hospital, outpatient, and in-office settings. Melt intends to seek regulatory
approval for its proprietary technologies, where possible. In December 2018, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Melt (the
“Melt Asset Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Harrow assigned to Melt the underlying intellectual property for Melt’s
current pipeline, including its lead drug candidate MELT-300. The core intellectual property Melt owns is a patented series of combination
non-opioid sedation drug formulations that we estimate to have multitudinous applications.
MELT-300
is a novel, sublingually delivered, non-IV, opioid-free drug candidate being developed for procedural sedation. Melt filed an investigational
new drug application (“IND”) with the FDA in June 2020 and began its clinical program for MELT-300. In February 2021, Melt
announced data from, and the successful completion of, its Phase 1 study. Melt began enrolling patients in its Phase 2 study for MELT-300
during the fourth quarter of 2021, and we expect Melt to release top-line data related to this study sometime during the fourth quarter
of 2022.
In
January 2019, Melt closed an offering of its Series A Preferred Stock. At that time, we gave up our controlling interest and
deconsolidated Melt from our consolidated financial statements. We own 3,500,000 shares of Melt common stock, which was
approximately 46% of Melt’s equity and voting interests issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2022. In September 2021, we
provided Melt with a senior secured loan with a principal amount of $13,500,000, which is intended to fund the Phase 2 program of
MELT-300. In connection with the loan, we were given the right, but not the obligation, to match any offer received by Melt
associated with the commercial rights to any of its drug candidates for a period of five years. In September 2022, Melt filed a
registration statement on Form S-1 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission related to an initial public offering
of Melt’s common stock in an underwritten offering (the “Melt IPO”). The registration statement contains, among
other things, a description of Melt’s business, financial statements and strategic plans. If the Melt IPO is completed, we
expect to settle ten million dollars ($10,000,000) of the principal balance of our loan to Melt in exchange for Melt common stock at
the price of the Melt IPO, net of any underwriting discounts.
Melt
is required to make mid-single digit royalty payments to the Company on net sales of MELT-300, while any patent rights remain outstanding,
subject to other conditions. Melt can require the Company to cease compounding like products at the time of FDA approval of MELT-300.
If approved, we do not expect a cessation of compounding like products to have a material impact on our operations and financial performance.

Eton
Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Eton
is an innovative pharmaceutical company focused on developing, acquiring, and commercializing treatments for rare diseases. Eton
currently commercializes ALKINDI SPRINKLE® and Carglumic Acid tablets and has four additional rare disease products under
development, including dehydrated alcohol injection and the ZENEO® hydrocortisone autoinjector. In May 2017, we gave up our
controlling interest in Eton. We own 1,982,000 shares of Eton common stock, which was less than 10% of the equity and voting
interests issued and outstanding of Eton as of September 30, 2022.
Factors
Affecting Our Performance
We
believe the primary factors affecting our performance are our ability to increase revenues of our proprietary compounded formulations
and certain non-proprietary products, grow and gain operating efficiencies in our pharmacy operations, potential regulatory-related restrictions,
optimize pricing and obtain reimbursement options for our proprietary compounded formulations, and continue to pursue development and
commercialization opportunities for certain of our ophthalmology and other assets that we have not yet made commercially available as
compounded formulations. We believe we have built a tangible and intangible infrastructure that will allow us to scale revenues efficiently
in the near and long-term. All of these activities will require significant costs and other resources, which we may not have or be able
to obtain from operations or other sources. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.
Reimbursement
Options
W e
believe IHEEZO and possibly other drug candidates that we may develop will also be covered under Medicare Part B. New drugs approved
by the FDA that are used in surgeries performed in a hospital outpatient departments or ambulatory surgical centers may receive a
transitional pass-through reimbursement under Medicare, provided they meet certain criteria, including a “not
insignificant” cost criterion. Pass-through status allows for separate payment (i.e., outside the packaged payment rate for
the surgical procedure) under Medicare Part B, which consists of Medicare reimbursement for a drug based on a defined formula for
calculating the minimum fee that a manufacturer may charge for the drug. Under current regulations of CMS, pass-through status
applies for a period of three years; which is measured from the date Medicare makes its first pass-through payment for the product.
Following the three-year period, the product would be incorporated into the cataract bundled payment system, which could
significantly reduce the pricing for that product. We intend to apply for temporary pass-through reimbursement for IHEEZO during
2023. Following expiration of pass-through status, under current CMS policy, non-opioid pain management surgical drugs when used on
Medicare Part B patients in an outpatient setting can qualify for ongoing separate payment. CMS’ current non-opioid separate
payment policy, like other CMS policies, can be changed by CMS through its annual rulemaking and comment process. We believe that
CMS will continue its separate payment policy for non-opioid pain management surgical drugs, which has been in effect since
2019.
In
July of 2022, CMS issued its Proposed CY 2023 Payment Rule for Hospital Outpatient Services and ASCs. Based on the summary in the proposed
rule, DEXYCU will no longer qualify as a separately payable product in an ASC or outpatient setting and will instead be bundled into
the general cataract procedure code effective January 1, 2023, when the final rule, if approved as currently proposed, will go into effect.
Our
proprietary ophthalmic compounded formulations are currently primarily available on a cash-pay basis. However, MOXEZA, MAXITROL and IOPIDINE
are, and we expect that other drug candidates we are developing, if approved, will be eligible for reimbursement by third-party payors.
We are devoting time and resources to seek reimbursement and patient pay opportunities for these and other drug products and candidates.
However, we may be unsuccessful in achieving these goals, as many third-party payors have imposed significant challenges for products
to be eligible for reimbursement in recent years. Moreover, third-party payors, including Medicare, are increasingly attempting to contain
health care costs by limiting coverage and the level of reimbursement for new drugs and by refusing, in some cases, to provide coverage
for uses of approved products for disease indications for which the FDA has not granted labeling approval. Further, the Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the “Health
Care Reform Law”), may have a considerable impact on the existing U.S. system for the delivery and financing of health care and
could conceivably have a material adverse
effect on our business. As a result, reimbursement from Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payors may never be available for any
of our products or, if available, may not be sufficient to allow us to sell the products on a competitive basis and at desirable price
points. We are communicating with government and third-party payors in order to make our drug products and candidates available to more
patients and at optimized pricing levels. However, if government and other third-party payors do not provide adequate coverage and reimbursement
levels for our drug products and candidates, the market acceptance and opportunity for them may be limited.

COVID-19
Pandemic
A
novel strain of coronavirus was first identified in Wuhan, China in December 2019. The disease caused by it, COVID-19, was declared a
global pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. On March 18, 2020, CMS released guidance for U.S. healthcare providers
to limit all elective medical procedures in order to conserve personal protective equipment and limit exposure to COVID-19 during the
pendency of the pandemic. In addition to limiting elective medical procedures, many hospitals and other healthcare providers have strictly
limited access to their facilities during the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global
supply chains and healthcare delivery, led to social distancing recommendation, and created significant volatility in financial markets.
In May 2020 and the following months, U.S. states and geographies began easing restrictions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic including
those restrictions related to elective procedures. We have since seen sales of our products return to historical norms and trends as
restrictions associated with elective procedures and the COVID-19 pandemic have eased.
However,
given the unprecedented and dynamic nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, including any virus mutations/variants, we may not be able to reasonably
estimate the impacts it may have on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the future, especially if there are
new restrictions in elective procedures in the future which would have an adverse impact, which may be material, on our future revenues,
profitability and cash flows.
Recent
Developments
Divestment
of Non-Ophthalmic Revenues
In
October 2022, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “RPC Agreement”) with Innovation Compounding Pharmacy,
LLC (the “Buyer”). The closing of the RPC Agreement was made effective on September 30, 2022. Under the terms of the RPC
Agreement, the Company agreed to sell substantially all its assets associated with its non-ophthalmology related compounding
business, including but not limited to, certain intellectual property rights, customer lists, databases, and formulations (the
“RPC Assets”). The Buyer agreed to make offers of employment to six of the Company’s employees that were
responsible for the sales activities associated with the RPC Assets. In connection with the RPC Agreement, the Company entered into
a separate transition services agreement with the Buyer related to providing on going services, such as procuring and dispensing
prescription orders associated with RPC Assets. The Company expects to provide transition services to the Buyer for up to six months
following the effective date of the RPC Agreement. Under the terms of the RPC Agreement, the Buyer paid to the Company an aggregate
cash amount of $6,000,000 on October 5, 2022. In addition, the Buyer is obligated to pay up to $4,500,000 to the Company based on
mutually agreed upon revenue milestones during the calendar year 2023.
Melt
Loan Amendments
In
April and September 2022, we entered into a First Amendment and Second Amendment (collectively the “Amendments”) to our
loan and security agreement previously entered into on September 1, 2021 with Melt. The Amendments provide for the
following:
● Melt
is required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $7,000,000 for one year following the effective
date of the Second Amendment; and a minimum cash balance of $5,000,000 at all times after the one-year anniversary of the effective date of the Amendments.
● The
maturity date by which all amounts owed under the loan agreement are payable was extended
to June 1, 2023, which can be extended further to September 1, 2026 following
a qualified financing of at least $10,000,0000, unless otherwise accelerated pursuant to
the terms of the loan agreement.
● The
definition of “material adverse effect” was amended so that such an effect will be deemed to
have occurred if the data from the Phase 2 study of MELT-300 fails to demonstrate the benefit
of the combination MELT-300 study drug versus the individual components of the same MELT-300
study drug, as reasonably determined by us.

$ 15,978,000
The
increase in revenues between periods was related to an increase in sales volumes of our ophthalmology products, an increase in commissions
attributable to sales of Dexycu® and transfer of profits from recently acquired products. In June of 2022, the Company completed
the transfer from the seller to Harrow of Iopidine and Maxitrol NDAs and relaunched those products, as a result, we will not record revenues
associated with the transfer of profits associated with those products in future periods.
Cost
of Sales
Our
cost of sales includes direct and indirect costs to manufacture formulations and sell products, including active pharmaceutical ingredients,
personnel costs, packaging, storage, royalties, shipping and handling costs, manufacturing equipment and tenant improvements depreciation,
the write-off of obsolete inventory and other related expenses.

amortization of acquired NDAs beginning in January 2022, along with a one-time adverse production related event in April 2022,
increased discounts provided during 2022 associated with volume-based purchases and increased (direct and indirect) production costs incurred during 2022.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Our
selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel costs, including wages and stock-based compensation, corporate facility
expenses, and investor relations, consulting, insurance, filing, legal and accounting fees and expenses as well as costs associated with
our marketing activities and sales of our proprietary compounded formulations and other non-proprietary pharmacy products and formulations.

associated with regulatory improvements, to support the transition of recent product acquisitions, and an increase in expenses related
to the addition of new employees in sales, marketing and other departments to support current and expected growth, including the anticipated
commercial launch of IHEEZO in 2023.
Research

Our
research and development (“R&D”) expenses primarily include personnel costs, including wages and stock-based compensation,
expenses related to the development of intellectual property, investigator-initiated research and evaluations, formulation development,
acquired in-process R&D and other costs related to the clinical development of our assets.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our
cash on hand at September 30, 2022 was $44,959,000, compared to $42,167,000 at December 31, 2021.
As
of the date of this Quarterly Report, we believe that cash and cash equivalents of $44,959,000 at September 30, 2022 will be sufficient
to sustain our planned level of operations and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. In addition, we may consider the
sale of certain assets including, but not limited to, part of, or all of, our investments in Eton, Surface, Melt, and/or any of our consolidated
subsidiaries. However, we may pursue acquisitions of revenue generating products, drug candidates or other strategic transactions that
involve large expenditures or we may experience growth more quickly or on a larger scale than we expect, any of which could result in
the depletion of capital resources more rapidly than anticipated and could require us to seek additional financing to support our operations.
We
expect to use our current cash position and funds generated from our operations and any financing to pursue our business plan, which
includes developing and commercializing drug candidates, compounded formulations and technologies, integrating and developing our operations,
pursuing potential future strategic transactions as opportunities arise, including potential acquisitions of additional pharmacy, outsourcing
facilities, drug company and manufacturers, drug products, drug candidates, and/or assets or technologies, and otherwise fund our operations.
We may also use our resources to conduct clinical trials or other studies in support of our formulations or any drug candidate for which
we pursue FDA approval, to pursue additional development programs or to explore other development opportunities.

Operating
Activities
Net
cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $5,417,000 compared to $6,572,000 during the
same period in the prior year. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities between the periods was mainly attributed to
increased operating expenses associated with planned 2023 commercial launch of IHEEZO and increased costs of goods sold.
Investing
Activities
Net
cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $(1,738,000) compared to $(4,489,000) during the
same period in the prior year. Cash used in investing activities in 2022 was primarily associated with equipment and software purchases.
Cash used in investing activities in 2021 was primarily associated with the issuance of a note receivable to Melt and partially offset
by cash provided by the sale of a portion of our investment in Eton.
31
Financing
Activities
Net
cash (used in) provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $(887,000) and $51,472,000,
respectively. Cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily related to payment of payroll
taxes upon vesting of RSUs in exchange for shares withheld from the employees. Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months
ended September 30, 2021 was primarily related to proceeds received from the sale of notes, net of the payment of all outstanding obligations
to the Company’s previous senior lender, SWK Funding, LLC, and its partners.
Sources
of Capital
Our
principal sources of cash consist of cash provided by operating activities from our ImprimisRx and branded pharmaceutical business, and
in 2021, proceeds from the sale of senior notes and a portion of our Eton common stock. We may also sell some or all of our ownership
interests in Surface, Melt or our other subsidiaries, along with the some or all of the remaining portion of our Eton common stock.
The
changing trends and overall economic outlook in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the historic interim stay-at-home orders and
bans on elective surgeries, created uncertainty surrounding our operating outlook and may impact our future operating results if the
COVID-19 pandemic worsens in the U.S. In addition, we may acquire new products, product candidates and/or businesses and, as a result,
we may need significant additional capital to support our business plan and fund our proposed business operations. We may receive additional
proceeds from the exercise of stock purchase warrants that are currently outstanding. We may also seek additional financing from a variety
of sources, including other equity or debt financings, funding from corporate partnerships or licensing arrangements, sales of assets
or any other financing transaction. If we issue equity or convertible debt securities to raise additional funds, our existing stockholders
may experience substantial dilution, and the newly issued equity or debt securities may have more favorable terms or rights, preferences
and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration or licensing arrangements
or sales of assets, we may be required to relinquish potentially valuable rights to our product candidates or proprietary technologies
or formulations, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. If we raise funds by incurring additional debt, we may be required
to pay significant interest expenses and our leverage relative to our earnings or to our equity capitalization may increase. Obtaining
commercial loans, assuming they would be available, would increase our liabilities and future cash commitments and may impose restrictions
on our activities, such as the financial and operating covenants. Further, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital
and/or financing transactions, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printing and distribution expenses and
other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible
notes and warrants, which would adversely impact our financial results.
We
may be unable to obtain financing when necessary as a result of, among other things, our performance, general economic conditions, conditions
in the pharmaceuticals and pharmacy industries, or our operating history, including our past bankruptcy proceedings. In addition, the
fact that we have a limited history of profitability could further impact the availability or cost to us of future financings. As a result,
sufficient funds may not be available when needed from any source or, if available, such funds may not be available on terms that are
acceptable to us. If we are unable to raise funds to satisfy our capital needs when needed, we may need to forego pursuit of potentially
valuable development or acquisition opportunities, we may not be able to continue to operate our business pursuant to our business plan,
which would require us to modify our operations to reduce spending to a sustainable level by, among other things, delaying, scaling back
or eliminating some or all of our ongoing or planned investments in corporate infrastructure, business development, sales and marketing
and other activities, or we may be forced to discontinue our operations entirely.

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 filed
or submitted pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated

1A. Risk Factors
In
addition to the other information contained in this Quarterly Report you should consider the risk factors and the other information in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, including our audited financial statements and the related notes
and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” If any such risks actually
occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth prospects would likely be materially and adversely
affected. In these circumstances, the market price of our common stock would likely decline and you may lose all or part of your investments.
Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations.
There
are many competitive risks related to marketing and selling our proprietary formulations and operating our compounding pharmacy business.
The
pharmaceutical and pharmacy industries are highly competitive. We compete against branded drug companies, generic drug companies, outsourcing
facilities and other compounding pharmacies. We are significantly smaller than some of our competitors. Currently we lack some of the
financial and other resources needed to develop, produce, distribute and market our proprietary formulations at a level to capture a
significant market share in these sectors. The drug products available through branded and generic drug companies with which our formulations
compete have been approved for marketing and sale by the FDA and are required to be manufactured in facilities compliant with cGMP standards.
Although we prepare our compounded formulations in accordance with the standards provided by the United States Pharmacopeia (“USP”)
chapters <795> and <797> and applicable state and federal law, our proprietary compounded formulations are not required
to be, and have not been, approved for marketing and sale by the FDA. As a result, some physicians may be unwilling to prescribe, and
some patients may be unwilling to use, our formulations. Additionally, under federal and state laws applicable to our current compounding
pharmacy operations, we are not permitted to prepare significant amounts of a specific formulation in advance of a prescription, compound
quantities for office use or utilize a wholesaler for distribution of our formulations; instead, our compounded formulations must be
prepared and dispensed in connection with a physician prescription for an individually identified patient. Pharmaceutical companies,
on the other hand, are able to sell their FDA-approved products to large pharmaceutical wholesalers, which can in turn sell to and supply
hospitals and retail pharmacies. Even if we are successful in registering certain of our facilities as outsourcing facilities, our business
may not be scalable on the scope available to our competitors that produce FDA-approved drugs, which may limit our potential for profitable
operations. These facets of our operations may subject our business to limitations our competitors with FDA-approved drugs may not face.
In
November 2022, USP published finalized revisions to USP chapters <795> and <797>, which had been previously proposed for
public comment in September 2021. The revisions include limitations on beyond use dating of sterile and preservative-free products
and batch sizes, among other changes. USP expects the published revisions to become effective November 1, 2023, however, regulatory
bodies such as state boards of pharmacy may adopt these changes at that time, or on different dates, on a case-by-case basis. While
USP has no role in enforcement, we believe the revisions to USP chapter <797> in particular will likely cause two changes to
our business, which in the aggregate should have a neutral to positive revenue impact on Harrow: (i) we expect a reduction in
revenues generated from sales of formulations compounded by our 503A pharmacy, and (ii) we expect an increase in revenues from sales
of formulations compounded in our 503B facility. Further, we believe the changes to USP chapter <797> will likely cause a
reduction in the ability of local 503A pharmacies to produce compounded formulations to serve local markets, and that these changes
in policy affecting sterile compounded formulations, if adopted by the various states, may increase demand for compounded
formulations from larger vendors such as Harrow and cause further consolidation in the market for compounded formulations as smaller
503A pharmacies see a reduction in revenues from certain segments of their formularies affected by these changes.
