NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Company and Background Harrow, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context indicates or otherwise requires, the “Company” or “Harrow”) is 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. The Company owns commercial rights to one of the largest portfolios of branded ophthalmic pharmaceutical products in the U.S. that are marketed under its Harrow name. The Company also owns and operates ImprimisRx, one of the nation’s leading ophthalmology-focused pharmaceutical-compounding businesses. The Company owns non-controlling equity interests 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. Basis of Presentation The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or for any other period. For further information, refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Harrow consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company assesses control under the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model to determine whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of that entity. The Company consolidates (i) entities in which it holds and/or controls, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights , and (ii) VIEs for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following represents an update for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. 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. 7 Fair Value Measurements Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. GAAP establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The established fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels: ● Level 1: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and must be used to measure fair value whenever available. ● Level 2: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. ● Level 3: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. For example, Level 3 inputs would relate to forecasts of future earnings and cash flows used in a discounted future cash flows method. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company measured its investment in Eton Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Eton”) on a recurring basis. The Company’s investment in Eton is classified as Level 1 as the fair value is determined using quoted market prices in active markets for the same securities. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair market value of the Company’s investment in Eton was $ 7,433,000 and $ 8,681,000 , respectively. The Company sold its remaining interest in April 2024 (see Note 16). The Company’s 2026 Notes (as defined in Note 11) are carried at face value, including the unamortized premium, less unamortized debt issuance costs, the 2027 Notes (as described in Note 11) are carried at face value less unamortized debt issuance costs, and the Oaktree Loan (as defined in Note 11) is carried at face value less the original issue discount and unamortized debt issuance costs on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the Company presents fair value for disclosure purposes only. The 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes are classified as Level 1 instruments as the fair value is determined using quoted market prices in active markets for the same securities. The Oaktree Loan is classified as a Level 2 instrument and its fair value is determined through an income approach that considers collateral coverage, yield calibration, yield analysis and any adjustments to implied yield associated with the Company’s fundamental measures. The following table presents the estimated fair values and the carrying values: SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value 2026 Notes $ 73,413,000 $ 73,560,000 $ 73,218,000 $ 70,260,000 2027 Notes $ 37,591,000 $ 41,860,000 $ 37,413,000 $ 40,363,000 Oaktree Loan $ 73,144,000 $ 76,725,000 $ 72,541,000 $ 76,627,000 The Company’s other financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued payroll and related liabilities, deferred revenue and customer deposits and operating lease liabilities. The carrying amount of these financial instruments, except for operating lease liabilities, approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company, the carrying value of the operating lease liabilities approximate their respective fair values. 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”), performance stock units (“PSUs”), and warrants, outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares (using the treasury stock method) from stock options, unvested RSUs, unvested PSUs and warrants were 4,318,057 and 4,750,340 at March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are excluded in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share for the periods presented, because the effect is anti-dilutive. 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 March 31, 2024 and 2023 was 223,928 and 336,264 , respectively. 8 The following table shows the computation of basic net loss per share of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023: SCHEDULE OF BASIC NET LOSS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK 2024 2023 For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 2023 Numerator – net loss $ ( 13,565,000 ) $ ( 6,643,000 ) Denominator – weighted average number of shares outstanding, basic and diluted 35,469,638 30,289,730 Net loss per share, basic and diluted $ ( 0.38 ) $ ( 0.22 ) Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate was ( 0.11 )% and 4.16 % for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21 % due to state taxes, permanent book-tax differences related to Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC”), Section 162(m) excess officer compensation limitation and share-based compensation and the change in valuation allowance. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate. Investment in Melt Pharmaceuticals, Inc. – Related Party The Company owns 3,500,000 shares of common stock and 2,334,256 shares of preferred stock of Melt (representing in aggregate approximately 46 % of Melt’s equity interests as of March 31, 2024). 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 its portion of earnings and losses in Melt in its consolidated financial statements and adjusts the carrying amount of its investment in Melt accordingly. Any intra-entity profits and losses are eliminated. On a quarterly basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of the Company’s equity method investments 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. The Company has no other investments other than its common stock and preferred stock positions in Melt and no other requirements to advance funds to Melt. The following table summarizes the Company’s investments in Melt as of March 31, 2024: SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENT Cost Share of Equity Method Net Carrying Basis Losses Value Common stock $ 5,810,000 $ ( 5,810,000 ) $ - Preferred stock 18,397,000 ( 18,397,000 ) - $ 24,207,000 $ ( 24,207,000 ) $ - See Note 4 for more information and related party disclosure regarding Melt. 9 Accounting Guidance Issued but Not Adopted at March 31, 2024 In August 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-05, Business Combinations—Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement , which applies to the formation of entities that meet the definition of a joint venture (or a corporate joint venture) and requires joint ventures to initially measure all contributions received upon formation at fair value. The new guidance does not impact accounting by the venturers. The new guidance is applicable to joint venture entities with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis. Joint ventures formed prior to the effective date may elect to apply the new guidance retrospectively back to their original formation date. The Company will apply the guidance in ASU 2023-05 prospectively to any future arrangements meeting the definition of a joint venture. In October 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements—Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative . This ASU modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of topics in the codification by aligning them with the SEC’s regulations. The amendments to the various topics should be applied prospectively, and the effective date for the Company for each amendment will be determined based on the effective date of the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. If the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement by June 30, 2027, then the related amendment in ASU 2023-06 will be removed from the codification and will not become effective. Early adoption of this ASU is prohibited. The Company does not expect the amendments in this ASU to have a material impact on the disclosures or presentation in its consolidated financial statements. In November 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures , which enhances the disclosures required for operating segments in the Company’s annual and interim consolidated financial statements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company in our annual reporting for fiscal 2024 and for interim period reporting beginning in fiscal 2025 on a retrospective basis, with all required disclosures to be made for all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures , which enhances the disclosures required for income taxes in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements. Notably, this ASU requires entities to disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company in its annual reporting for fiscal year 2025 on a prospective basis. Early adoption and retrospective reporting are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements. Reclassifications Certain prior period items and amounts have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used to prepare the condensed consolidated financial statements for the current period. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as previously reported. NOTE 3. REVENUES The Company accounts for contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers . The Company has three primary streams of revenue: (1) product revenues, including 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 transfer of acquired product sales and profits in 2023, and (3) revenue recognized from intellectual property licenses and related arrangements. 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. 10 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. For shipping and handling activities under ASC 606, 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, copay assistance 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: Because 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. Revenues From Transfer of Acquired Product Sales and Profits The Company has entered into agreements whereby it purchased the exclusive commercial rights to assets associated with certain ophthalmic products from other pharmaceutical companies (the “Sellers”). During a temporary, transition period, the Sellers continue 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 Sellers 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 Sellers invoice the Company for all credits and reimbursements (“Chargebacks”) made to customers related to the products. The Company uses historical actual experience to estimate Chargebacks associated with the net sales and profit transferred. The estimated Chargebacks are recorded as a reduction in revenues from transfer of acquired product sales and profits in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, and recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets, at the time the revenue is recognized. Intellectual Property License and Related Arrangements Revenues As of March 31, 2024, the Company holds five intellectual property licenses and related arrangements pursuant to which the Company has agreed to license or sell to a customer 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 deliverables are 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. 11 Revenue disaggregated by revenue source for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 consisted of the following: SCHEDULE OF DISAGGREGATED REVENUE 2024 2023 For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 2023 Product sales, net $ 34,508,000 $ 20,453,000 Other revenues (including transfer of acquired product sales/profit) 79,000 5,650,000 Total revenues $ 34,587,000 $ 26,103,000 Deferred revenue and customer deposits at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $ 112,000 and $ 75,000 , 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 December 31, 2023, the 2017 Plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The purpose 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 400,250 shares available for future issuances under the 2017 Plan at March 31, 2024. 17 Stock Options A summary of stock option activity under the Plans for the three months ended March 31, 2024 is as follows: SCHEDULE OF STOCK OPTION PLAN ACTIVITY Number of Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life Aggregate Intrinsic Value Options outstanding – January 1, 2024 2,711,317 $ 6.25 Options granted 51,500 $ 9.81 Options exercised ( 46,175 ) $ 7.54 Options cancelled/forfeited ( 48,626 ) $ 12.22 Options outstanding – March 31, 2024 2,668,016 $ 6.19 3.82 $ 19,285,000 Options exercisable 2,404,897 $ 5.55 3.27 $ 18,508,000 Options vested and expected to vest 2,631,881 $ 6.10 3.75 $ 19,191,000 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 March 31, 2024, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $ 13.23 on that date. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, 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 months ended March 31, 2024 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: SCHEDULE OF FAIR VALUE ASSUMPTIONS 2024 Weighted-average fair value of options granted $ 6.34 Expected terms (in years) 6.11 Expected volatility 68 % Risk-free interest rate 4.06 - 4.21 % Dividend yield - 18 The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2024: SCHEDULE OF STOCK OPTION OUTSTANDING AND EXERCISABLE Options Outstanding Options Exercisable Range of Exercise Prices Number Outstanding Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life in Years Weighted Average Exercise Price Number Exercisable Weighted Average Exercise Price $ 1.47 - $ 1.73 295,852 3.71 $ 1.72 295,852 $ 1.72 $ 2.23 285,000 2.84 $ 2.23 285,000 $ 2.23 $ 2.40 - $ 2.60 24,068 2.77 $ 2.58 24,068 $ 2.58 $ 3.95 310,000 2.00 $ 3.95 310,000 $ 3.95 $ 4.49 - $ 5.72 100,225 5.22 $ 5.54 96,350 $ 5.53 $ 6.30 285,000 4.89 $ 6.30 285,000 $ 6.30 $ 6.75 - $ 7.26 62,500 8.24 $ 6.91 24,979 $ 6.92 $ 7.30 274,500 5.76 $ 7.30 274,500 $ 7.30 $ 7.37 - $ 7.79 204,261 4.14 $ 7.50 155,136 $ 7.47 $ 7.87 - $ 25.86 826,610 3.30 $ 9.38 654,012 $ 8.01 $ 1.47 - $ 25.86 2,668,016 3.82 $ 6.19 2,404,897 $ 5.55 As of March 31, 2024, there was approximately $ 1,815,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options granted under the Plans. That expense is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.81 years. The stock-based compensation for all stock options was $ 126,000 and $ 341,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $ 139,000 . Restricted Stock Units RSU awards are granted subject to certain vesting requirements and other restrictions, including time-based performance and market-based vesting criteria. The grant date fair value of the RSUs, which has been determined based upon the market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, is expensed over the vesting period of the RSUs. A summary of the Company’s RSU activity and related information for the three months ended March 31, 2024 is as follows: SCHEDULE OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS ACTIVITY Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value RSUs unvested - January 1, 2024 363,029 $ 9.23 RSUs granted 6,238 9.66 RSUs vested ( 283,389 ) 9.21 RSUs cancelled/forfeited ( 3,750 ) 8.10 RSUs unvested - March 31, 2024 82,128 $ 9.37 As of March 31, 2024, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSUs was approximately $ 859,000 , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years, based on estimated and actual vesting schedules of the applicable RSUs. The stock-based compensation for RSUs during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $ 405,000 and $ 29,000 , respectively. 19 Performance Stock Units A summary of the Company’s PSU activity and related information for the three months ended March 31, 2024 is as follows: SCHEDULE OF PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS ACTIVITY Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value PSUs unvested – January 1, 2024 1,567,913 $ 18.56 PSUs granted - PSUs vested - PSUs cancelled/forfeited - PSUs unvested – March 31, 2024 1,567,913 $ 18.56 As of March 31, 2024, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested PSUs was approximately $ 14,553,000 , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.01 years, based on estimated and actual vesting schedules of the applicable PSUs. The stock-based compensation for PSUs during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $ 3,638,000 and $ 1,263,000 , respectively.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal General and Other In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings, government investigations and other matters that are complex in nature and have outcomes that are difficult to predict. The Company describes legal proceedings and other matters that are/were significant or that it believes could become significant in this footnote. The Company records accruals for loss contingencies to the extent that it concludes it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the related loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis, developments in legal proceedings and other matters that could cause an increase or decrease in the amount of a liability that has been accrued previously. The Company’s legal proceedings involve various aspects of its business and a variety of claims, some of which present novel factual allegations and/or unique legal theories. Typically, a number of the matters pending against the Company are at early stages of the legal process, which in complex proceedings of the sort the Company faces often extend for several years. While it is not possible to accurately predict or determine the eventual outcomes of matters that have not concluded, an adverse determination in one or more of the matters (whether discussed in this footnote or not) currently pending may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Ocular Science, Inc. et. al In July 2021, ImprimisRx, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, filed a lawsuit against Ocular Science, Inc. and OSRX, Inc. (together, “OSRX”) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California, asserting claims for copyright infringement, trademark infringement, unfair competition and false advertising (Lanham Act). ImprimisRx is seeking damages from OSRX. Since July 2021, the complaint has been amended and OSRX added counterclaims alleging ImprimisRx, LLC is violating the Lanham Act with false advertising. Both parties are seeking damages from the other. The Company expects the trial to take place in August 2024. 20 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. Indemnities In addition to the indemnification provisions contained in the Company’s charter 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. Several of the Company’s asset purchase and license agreements contain customary representations, warranties, covenants and confidentiality provisions, and also contain mutual indemnification obligations related primarily to performance under the respective agreements. 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 FDA Approved Product Acquisitions In recent years, the Company has acquired commercial and product rights to various FDA approved ophthalmic medications and products through asset purchase, licenses, supply and/or other related agreements. In general, in exchange for product and commercial rights these agreements provide the counterparties with certain upfront and contingent milestone payments typically related to certain annual sales amounts and manufacturing events, and in certain cases, per unit transfer prices and royalties on sales of some of the products. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, $ 274,000 and $ 0 were incurred under these agreements as royalty expenses, respectively. The Company incurred $ 0 and $ 5,000,000 related to upfront and milestone payments under these agreements during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, the remaining contingent consideration payable pursuant to these agreements were not considered probable and reasonably estimable and therefore, no amount was accrued related to these contingent obligations during the three months ended March 31, 2024. At the time contingent consideration payable becomes probable and reasonably estimable the additional consideration, if any, paid will be allocated to the assets based on their initial estimated fair values as a percent of the total purchase price. Formulation Acquisitions The Company has acquired and sourced intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from certain inventors, innovator companies and related parties (the “Inventors”) through multiple asset purchase agreements and license 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 these 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 to 45 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 months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, $ 180,000 and $ 376,000 were incurred under these agreements as royalty expenses, respectively. 21 Sales and Marketing Agreements The Company had entered various sales and marketing agreements with certain organizations to provide exclusive and non-exclusive sales and marketing representation services to Harrow in select geographies in the U.S. in connection with the Company’s ophthalmic pharmaceutical compounded formulations or related products. Under the terms of the sales and marketing agreements, the Company was generally required to make commission payments equal to 10 % to 14 % of net sales for products above and beyond the initial existing sales amounts. In addition, the Company was required to make periodic milestone payments to certain organizations in shares of the Company’s restricted common stock if net sales in the assigned territory reach certain future levels by the end of their terms. Commission expenses of $ 0 and $ 130,000 were incurred under these agreements for commission expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Contract Manufacturing The Company had entered into manufacturing agreements with respect to third-party contract manufacturers for its FDA approved pharmaceutical products. Some of these contract manufacturing agreements require minimum annual order amounts. The Company has committed to pay approximately $ 2,728,000 related to contract manufacturing agreements for the year ending December 31, 2024. NOTE 15. SEGMENTS AND CONCENTRATIONS The Company operates its business on the basis of a single reportable segment, which is the business of discovery, development, and commercialization of innovative ophthalmic therapies. The Company’s chief operating decision-maker is the Chief Executive Officer, who evaluates the Company as a single operating segment. The Company had one and two products that accounted for more than 10% of total revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These products accounted for 11 % and 36 % of revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, accounts receivable from a single customer accounted for 68 % and 80 % of total accounts receivable, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues from a single customer accounted for 27 % of total revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, no customer exceeded 10% of total revenues. The Company receives its active pharmaceutical ingredients from three main suppliers. These suppliers collectively accounted for 85 % of active pharmaceutical ingredient purchases during the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 90 % during the same period in 2023. NOTE 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company has performed an evaluation of events occurring subsequent to March 31, 2024 through the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
