Overview
We
are a leading eyecare pharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development, and commercialization of innovative ophthalmic pharmaceutical
products for the U.S. market. Harrow helps U.S. eyecare professionals preserve the gift of sight by making its comprehensive portfolio
of prescription and non-prescription pharmaceutical products accessible and affordable to millions of Americans each year We own commercial
rights to one of the largest portfolios of branded ophthalmic pharmaceutical products in the U.S. that are marketed under our Harrow
name. We also own and operate ImprimisRx, one of the nation’s leading ophthalmology-focused pharmaceutical-compounding businesses
In addition, we have non-controlling equity positions in Surface Ophthalmics, Inc. (“Surface”) and Melt Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. (“Melt”), both companies that began as subsidiaries of Harrow and were subsequently carved-out of our corporate structure
and deconsolidated from our financial statements. We also own royalty rights in certain drug candidates being developed by Surface and
Melt.
Factors
Affecting Our Performance
We
believe the primary factors affecting our performance are our ability to increase revenues of our branded pharmaceutical products, proprietary
compounded formulations and certain non-proprietary products, grow and gain operating efficiencies in our operations, potential regulatory-related
restrictions, optimize pricing and obtain reimbursement options for our drug products, and continue to pursue development and commercialization
opportunities for certain of our ophthalmology and other assets that we have not yet made commercially available. 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.

Recent
Developments
The
following describes certain developments in 2023 to date that are important to understand our financial condition and results of operations.
See the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for additional information
about each of these developments.
IHEEZO
Reimbursement and Launch
In
February 2023, we announced that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) had issued a permanent, product
specific J-code for IHEEZO (J2403) which became effective under the Healthcare Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) on April 1, 2023, which
physicians can use for reimbursement purposes of that product. 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. Temporary pass-through reimbursement for IHEEZO was awarded by CMS and
made effective in April 2023.
At
the beginning of April 2023, we initiated a regional and targeted launch of IHEEZO (chloroprocaine HCL ophthalmic gel) 3%. In early May
2023, our full commercial launch of IHEEZO occurred, with the product being highlighted by our commercial team at the ASCRS (American
Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery) Annual Meeting held May 5 – 8, 2023.
Acquisition
of Ilevro, Nevanac, Vigamox, Maxidex and Triesence
In
December 2022, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Novartis Technology, LLC and Novartis
Innovative Therapies AG (together, “Novartis”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase from Novartis the exclusive
commercial rights to assets associated with the following ophthalmic products (collectively the “Fab 5 Products”) in the
U.S. (the “Fab 5 Acquisition”):
●
ILEVRO
(nepafenac ophthalmic suspension) 0.3%, a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory eye drop indicated for pain and inflammation associated
with cataract surgery.
●
NEVANAC
(nepafenac ophthalmic suspension) 0.1%, a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory eye drop indicated for pain and inflammation associated
with cataract surgery.
●
VIGAMOX
(moxifloxacin hydrochloride ophthalmic solution) 0.5%, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic eye drop for the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis
caused by susceptible strains of organisms.
●
MAXIDEX
(dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension) 0.1%, a steroid eye drop for steroid-responsive inflammatory conditions of the palpebral and
bulbar conjunctiva, cornea, and anterior segment of the globe.
●
TRIESENCE
(triamcinolone acetonide injectable suspension) 40 mg/ml, a steroid injection for the treatment of certain ophthalmic diseases and
for visualization during vitrectomy.
We
closed the Fab 5 Acquisition on January 20, 2023. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we made a one-time payment of $130,000,000
at closing, with up to another $45,000,000 due in a milestone payment related to the timing of the commercial availability of Triesence.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and various ancillary agreements, immediately following the closing and subject to certain conditions,
for a period that lasted approximately six months, and prior to the transfer of the Fab 5 Products new drug applications (the “NDAs”)
to us, Novartis continued to sell the Products on our behalf and transferred the net profit from the sale of the Products to us. Novartis
has agreed to supply certain Products to the Company for a period of time after the NDAs are transferred to us and to assist with technology
transfer of the Products manufacturing to other third-party manufacturers, if needed.
33
On
April 28, 2023, we transferred the NDAs for ILEVRO, NEVANAC and MAXIDEX. In July 2023, we transferred the NDA for VIGAMOX, and the NDA for TRIESENCE is expected to transfer upon around the timing of its commercial availability.
Oaktree
Credit and Guaranty Agreement
On
March 27, 2023, we entered into a Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Oaktree Loan”) with Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC,
as administrative agent for the lenders (together, “Oaktree”), providing for a loan to us with a principal amount of up to
$100,000,000. Upon entering into the Oaktree Loan, we drew a principal amount of $65,000,000 from the Oaktree Loan and used the net proceeds
to repay all amounts owed by us pursuant to the BR Loan. No remaining amounts are due under the BR Loan, and no exit or prepayment fees
were paid as a result of the payoff of the B. Riley Loan. The additional principal loan amount of up to $35,000,000 available under the
Oaktree Loan (the “Tranche B”) will be made available to the Company upon the commercialization of TRIESENCE.
On
July 18, 2023, we entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement and Guaranty and Consent (the “Oaktree Amendment”)
to the Oaktree Loan. Under the Oaktree Amendment, the overall credit facility size was increased from $100,000,000 to $112,500,000, and
we made other changes related to the Santen Products Acquisition. Upon satisfaction of certain conditions to funding, we drew down a
principal amount of $12,500,000 (the “Loan Increase”) on August 1, 2023 to fund the initial one-time payment associated with
the Santen Products Acquisition and for other working capital and general corporate purposes. No other material changes to the Oaktree
Loan were provided in the Oaktree Amendment. Following entry into the Oaktree Amendment and the funding of the Loan Increase upon closing
of the Santen Products Acquisition, we have drawn down a total principal loan amount of $77,500,000 under the Oaktree Loan and an additional
Tranche B loan amount of up to $35,000,000 remains available to us upon the commercialization of TRIESENCE, provided, that if Tranche
B is not drawn by the Company on or before March 27, 2024, the amount available under Tranche B decreased to $30,000,000.
The
Oaktree Loan is secured by nearly all of the assets, including intellectual property, of the Company and its material subsidiaries. The
Oaktree Loan has a maturity date of January 19, 2026 and carries an interest rate equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR)
plus 6.5% per annum. The Oaktree Loan requires interest-only payments through its term (there is no amortization of the principal amount
or excess cash flow sweeps during the term of the Oaktree Loan).
HROWM
– Senior Notes Offering
In
December 2022, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with B. Riley Securities, Inc., as representative of the several underwriters
named therein, pursuant to which we agreed to sell $35,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 11.875% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027
Notes”) plus up to an additional $5,250,000 aggregate principal amount of 11.875% Senior Notes due 2027 pursuant to the option
to purchase additional 2027 Notes. In January 2023, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase the additional $5,250,000 aggregate
principal amount of 2027 Notes.
Acquisition
of VEVYE TM U.S. and Canadian Commercial Rights
In
July 2023, we acquired commercial rights of VEVYE (cyclosporine ophthalmic solution) 0.1%, an ophthalmic drug product, for the U.S. and
Canadian markets (the “VEVYE Acquisition”). VEVYE, which is dispensed topically in a unique ten microliter per one drop and
is labeled for twice-daily (BID) dosing, is the first and only cyclosporine-based product indicated for the treatment of both signs and
symptoms of dry eye disease (DED). VEVYE was approved on May 30, 2023 by the FDA. We acquired the commercial rights to VEVYE by entering
into a license agreement with Novaliq GmbH (“Novaliq”). As consideration, we made initial payments to Novaliq totaling $8,000,000
and will pay low double-digit royalties on net sales of VEVYE along with potential commercial milestone payments.
Acquisition
of Certain U.S. and Canadian Commercial Rights to Santen and Eyevance Products
In
July 2023, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Eyevance Pharmaceuticals, LLC and a License Agreement with Santen S.A.S.
(collectively, the “Santen Agreements”), each a subsidiary of Santen Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (collectively, “Santen”).
Pursuant to the Santen Agreements, we acquired the exclusive commercial rights to assets associated with the following ophthalmic products
(collectively, the “Santen Products”):
34
In
the U.S.:
●
FLAREX®
(fluorometholone acetate ophthalmic suspension) 0.1%, a corticosteroid prepared as a sterile topical ophthalmic suspension indicated
for use in the treatment of steroid-responsive inflammatory conditions of the palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva, cornea, and anterior
segment of the eye.
●
NATACYN®
(natamycin ophthalmic suspension) 5%, a sterile, antifungal drug for the treatment of fungal blepharitis, conjunctivitis, and keratitis
caused by susceptible organisms, including Fusarium solani keratitis.
●
TOBRADEX®
ST (tobramycin and dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension) 0.3%/0.05%, a topical antibiotic and corticosteroid combination for steroid-responsive
inflammatory ocular conditions for which a corticosteroid is indicated and where superficial bacterial ocular infection or a risk
of bacterial ocular infection exists.
●
ZERVIATE®
(cetirizine ophthalmic solution) 0.24%, a histamine-1 (H1) receptor antagonist indicated for treatment of ocular itching associated
with allergic conjunctivitis.
●
FRESHKOTE®,
a preservative-free formulation for temporary relief of symptoms of dry eye.
In
the U.S. and Canada:
●
VERKAZIA®
(cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion) 0.1%, an orphan designated drug that is a calcineurin inhibitor immunosuppressant indicated for
the treatment of vernal keratoconjunctivitis.
In
Canada:
●
CATIONORM®
PLUS, a preservative-free formulation for dry eye or allergy relief.
The
transactions pursuant to the Santen Agreements are referred to in this Quarterly Report as the “Santen Products Acquisition.”
Under
the terms of the Santen Agreements, we made an initial one-time payment of $8,000,000. In addition, the Santen Agreements provide for
various one-time milestone payments associated with certain manufacturing-related events as well as low-double digit royalty payments
on net sales of Verkazia and high-single digit royalty payments on net sales of Cationorm Plus. Under the Santen Agreements, we also
assumed certain obligations associated with other third parties that require mid-single digit royalties on sales of Freshkote and Zerviate.
Immediately following the closing and subject to certain conditions, for a period that we expect to last approximately four months, and
prior to the transfer of the Santen Product NDAs and other marketing authorizations to us, Santen will continue to sell the Santen Products
on our behalf and transfer the net profit from the sale of the Santen Products to us.
Common
Stock Offering
In
July 2023, we closed a public offering of shares of our common stock at an offering price of $17.75 per share (the “Offering”).
We sold 3,887,324 shares of our common stock in the Offering, resulting in us receiving aggregate gross proceeds of $69,000,000, before
commissions and other offering expenses.
B.
Riley Loan and Security Agreement – Paid
On
December 14, 2022, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “BR Loan”) with B. Riley Commercial Capital, LLC, as
Administrative Agent for the Lenders from time to time party thereto. The proceeds of the Loan Agreement were used to finance the Fab
5 Acquisition.
The
BR Loan provided for a loan facility of up to $100,000,000 to the Company with a maturity date of December 14, 2025, at an interest rate
of 10.875% per annum. The BR Loan was secured by an intellectual property security agreement and by all assets of the Company and its
material subsidiaries. The Company drew $59,750,000 of the BR Loan in January 2023, and subsequently paid back the BR Loan in March 2023
at the time of closing the Oaktree Loan. No remaining amounts are due under the BR Loan, and no exit or prepayment fees were paid as
a result of the payoff of the BR Loan.

Results
of Operations
The
following period-to-period comparisons of our financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are not necessarily
indicative of results for any future period.
Revenues
Our
revenues include amounts recorded from sales of proprietary compounded formulations, sales of branded products to wholesalers through
a third-party logistics facility, commissions from third parties and revenues received from royalty payments owed to us pursuant to out-license
arrangements.
The
following presents our revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

$ 14,130,000
The
increase in revenues between periods was related to an increase in sales of our branded ophthalmology products, as well as an increase
in the transfer of profits related to the Fab 5 Acquisition. This increase in 2023 was offset slightly by a decrease in commissions attributable
to sales of Dexycu® (which agreement terminated January 1, 2023) and a decrease in sales from our non-ophthalmology compounded products
as a result of our sale of those assets in the fourth quarter of 2022.
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.

for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to $341,000 and $682,000 during the prior year periods, respectively,
coupled with lesser increases in expenses associated with unit volumes sold and increased direct and indirect costs associated with production

Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Our
selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel costs, including wages and stock-based compensation, corporate facility

including new expenses associated with performance stock units granted in April of 2023. Other areas of increased expenses included regulatory
enhancements, costs 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 commercial launch of IHEEZO
in April 2023.
Research
and Development Expenses
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.

$3,586,000 for the same periods in 2022, respectively. The increase during the periods ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods
in 2022 was primarily due to an increase in the outstanding principal amount of our debt obligations.
37
Equity
in Losses of Unconsolidated Entities
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a loss of $0, related to our share of losses in Melt, compared to $2,646,000
and $5,532,000 for the same periods in 2022, respectively.
Investment
Gain (Loss) from Eton
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a (loss)/gain of $(714,000) and $1,328,000, respectively, related to the change
in fair market value of Eton’s common stock compared to losses of $3,449,000 and $3,310,000 for the same periods in 2022, respectively.
Loss
on Extinguishment of Debt
During
the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $5,465,000, related to the payoff of the B. Riley
Loan.
Other
Expense, Net
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded other expense, net of $178,000 and $149,000, respectively, related primarily
to transition services and write-off of inventories associated with the divestment of our non-ophthalmology business.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our
cash on hand at June 30, 2023 was $22,754,000, compared to $96,270,000 at December 31, 2022.
As
of the date of this Quarterly Report, we believe that cash and cash equivalents of $22,754,000 at June 30, 2023, along with proceeds
received subsequent to June 30, 2023 from the Offering and Oaktree Amendment, 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 drug products,
drug candidates, and/or assets or technologies, pharmacies, outsourcing facilities, drug company and manufacturers, 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.

Net
cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $(3,648,000) compared to cash provided by operating activities
of $5,827,000 during the same period in the prior year. The increase in net cash used in operating activities between the periods was
mainly attributed to an increase in accounts receivable related to payment terms for the profit transfer associated with the Fab 5 Acquisition
and branded product sales, which was an increase in our receivables of $12,038,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared
to an increase of $2,314,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was also
attributed to an increase in inventory levels, coupled with operating expenses associated with the commercial launch of IHEEZO and increased
costs of goods sold.
Investing
Activities
Net
cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $(132,219,000) compared to $(669,000) during the same
period in the prior year. Cash used in investing activities in 2023 was primarily associated with the Fab 5 Acquisition. Cash used in
investing activities in 2022 was primarily associated with equipment and software purchases.

Sources
of Capital
Our
principal sources of cash consist of cash provided by operating activities from our ImprimisRx and branded pharmaceutical businesses,
and in 2022 and 2023, proceeds from the sale of senior notes, the Offering and the Oaktree Loan and Oaktree Amendment. We may also sell
some or all of our ownership interests in Surface, Melt or our other subsidiaries, along with some or all of the remaining portion of
our Eton common stock.
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, then 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.
