Company Overview
We are a pre-revenue medical device company focused on the design,
development and commercialization of innovative insulin pumps using modernized technology to increase pump adoption in the diabetes marketplace.
Through the creation of a novel two-part patch pump, our initial product, the MODD1, we seek to fundamentally alter the trade-offs between
cost and complexity and access to the higher standards of care that presently-available insulin pumps provide. By simplifying and streamlining
the user experience from introduction, prescription, reimbursement, training and day-to-day use, we seek to expand the wearable insulin
delivery device market beyond the highly motivated “super users” and expand the category into the mass market. The product
seeks to serve both the type 1 and the rapidly growing, especially in terms of device adoption, type 2 diabetes markets. In January 2024,
we submitted a 510(k) premarket notification to the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for our MODD1 insulin
pump. In March 2024, we
received comments from the FDA, and we submitted a response to the
FDA’s comments in August 2024.
In February 2024, we completed a firm commitment underwritten offering
and sold to the underwriter 9,090,910 shares of our common stock at a price of $1.10 per share (the 2024 Offering). We received
aggregate proceeds of approximately $10.0 million before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses.
We also granted the underwriter a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,321,989 shares of common stock to cover over allotments,
if any. In March 2024, the underwriter exercised this option in full and purchased the additional securities for additional aggregate
proceeds to us of approximately $1.5 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. Historically,
we have financed our operations principally through private placements and public offerings of our common stock and sales of convertible
promissory notes. Based on our current operating plan, substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period
of at least one year from the date that the financial statements included in Item 1 of this Report are issued exists. Our ability to continue
as a going concern depends on our ability to raise additional capital, through the sale of equity or debt securities, to support our future
operations. If we are unable to secure additional capital, we will be required to curtail our research and development initiatives and
take additional measures to reduce costs. We have provided additional disclosure in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in
Item 1 of this Report and under Liquidity below.

Critical Accounting
Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition
and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with
U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and judgments that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we make these estimates based on our historical
experience and on assumptions that we consider reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates and
reported results could differ under different assumptions or conditions. Our significant accounting policies and estimates are disclosed
in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024. As of
June 30, 2024, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates.

Our research and development, or R&D, expenses
include personnel, consulting, testing, materials and supplies, depreciation and amortization and other operational costs associated with
the pre-FDA clearance production of our insulin pump product. We expense R&D costs as they are incurred.
Research and development, or R&D, expenses
increased for fiscal 2025 compared with the same period of fiscal 2024, primarily due to increased employee-related costs of approximately
$0.2 million, an increase of approximately $0.2 million in consulting costs, an increase in travel-related costs of approximately $0.1
million and an increase in depreciation expense of approximately $0.1 million. These increases were partially offset by an approximately
$0.2 million decrease in material and supplies costs. Our full-time R&D employee headcount increased to 36 at June 30, 2024 from 34
at June 30, 2023. R&D expenses included stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $0.4 million for each of the three-month
periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively. We expect research and development expenses to remain consistent and then
increase in the second half of fiscal 2025.

General and administrative, or G&A, expenses
consist primarily of personnel and related overhead costs for facilities, finance, human resources, legal, marketing and general management.
G&A expenses increased for the three months
ended June 30, 2024 compared with the same period of 2023, primarily as a result of an increase in legal and professional services expenses
of approximately $0.1 million, partially offset by decreases in facility-related costs of and other administrative expenses. G&A expenses
included stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and
June 30, 2023, respectively. We expect G&A expenses to remain consistent and then begin to increase in the second half of fiscal 2025.
Liquidity and Capital Resources; Changes
in Financial Condition
We do not currently have revenues to generate
cash flows to cover operating expenses. Since our inception, we have incurred operating losses and negative cash flows in each year due
to costs incurred in connection with R&D activities and G&A expenses associated with our operations. For the three months ended
June 30, 2024 and year ended March 31, 2024, we incurred net losses of approximately $4.1 million and $17.5 million, respectively. At
June 30, 2024, we had a cash balance of $5.1 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $70 million. When considered with our
current operating plan, these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least
one year from the date that the financial statements included in Item 1 of this Report are issued. Our financial statements do not include
adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going
concern. Our operating needs include the planned costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund continued research
and development activities, working capital and capital expenditures. Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on our ability
to raise additional capital, through the sale of equity or debt securities to support our future operations. Recently, during the three
months ended March 31, 2024, we completed an offering of shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $10.3 million, which
includes the proceeds from the underwriter’s exercise of the overallotment. In November 2023, we entered into a Sales Agreement
(the “ATM Agreement”) with Leerink Partners LLC (“Leerink”) under which we may offer and sell, from time to time
at our sole discretion, shares of our common stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $6.5 million (subject to availability on our
shelf registration statement) through an “at the market offering” program under which Leerink will act as sales agent or principal.
In January 2024, we sold 153,879 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $0.3 million under the ATM Agreement. Subject
to market conditions, we expect to resume sales under the ATM during the remainder of fiscal 2025, subject to market conditions. In addition,
since December 2023, we received a total of approximately $1.0 million of proceeds from the exercise of common stock purchase warrants
issued in a public offering we completed in May 2023. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend
on many factors, including, without limitation, our ability to successfully commercialize our product, competing technological and market
developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or
complement our product offerings. If we are unable to secure additional capital timely, we may be required to curtail R&D initiatives,
reduce headcount and take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve our cash.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we used
approximately $3.5 million of cash in operating activities, which primarily resulted from our net loss of approximately $4.1 million and
net changes in operating assets and liabilities of approximately $0.1 million, as adjusted for stock-based
compensation expenses of approximately $0.5 million, depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $0.2 million and other
immaterial adjustments. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we used approximately $3.2 million in operating activities, which primarily
resulted from our net loss of approximately $3.7 million, as adjusted for stock-based compensation
expenses of approximately $0.5 million and depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $0.1 million, which was partially
offset by other immaterial adjustments.
For the
three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, cash used in investing activities of approximately $0.8 million and $0.4 million ,
respectively, was for the purchase of property and equipment.
16
Cash provided by financing activities of approximately
$0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was attributable to proceeds from the exercise of common stock purchase warrants.
Cash provided by financing activities of $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was attributable to net proceeds from the
issuance of common stock and common stock purchase warrants in a public offering, net of underwriting fees and issuance costs.
Purchase Obligations
Our primary purchase
obligations include purchase orders for machinery and equipment. At June 30, 2024, we had outstanding purchase orders for machinery and
equipment and related expenditures of approximately $0.8 million.
In December 2023, we
signed a device integration agreement with a provider of connected-care and remote monitoring diabetes technology solutions. As of June
30, 2024, we had a remaining obligation under the device integration agreement of approximately $0.4 million over three years for
technology license fees.
