Our fiscal year ends on March 31 of each calendar year. Each reference to a fiscal year in this Report, refers to the fiscal year ended March 31 of the calendar year indicated (for example, fiscal 2025 refers to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025). Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to Modular Medical, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiary . 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, and, in September 2024, we received FDA clearance to market and sell our MODD1 pump in the United States. 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. 14 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 September 30, 2024, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates. Results of Operations Research and Development September 30, Change 2024 2023 2023 to 2024 (dollar amounts in thousands) Research and development – Three months ended $ 3,702 $ 3,159 $ 543 17.1 % Research and development – Six months ended $ 6,907 $ 5,927 $ 980 16.5 % 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. R&D expenses increased for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the same period of 2023, primarily due to increased stock-based compensation expense of $0.5 million, employee-related costs of approximately $0.2 million and increased depreciation expense of approximately $0.2 million. These increases were partially offset by decreases of approximately $0.2 million in consulting expenses and $0.2 million in material costs. R&D expenses increased for the six months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the same period of 2023, primarily due to increased stock-based compensation costs of approximately $0.5 million, increased employee-related costs of approximately $0.4 million, an increase in depreciation expense of approximately $0.3 million and an increase in travel-related and other costs of approximately $0.1 million. These increases were partially offset by an approximately $0.3 million decrease in material and supplies costs. Our full-time R&D employee headcount increased to 42 at September 30, 2024 from 39 at September 30, 2023. R&D expenses included stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $0.8 million and $0.4 million for the three-months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $1.2 million and $0.7 million for the six-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We expect research and development expenses to increase in the second half of fiscal 2025, as we commence initial activities in support of commercialization of our MODD1 product. 15 General and Administrative September 30, Change 2024 2023 2023 to 2024 (dollar amounts in thousands) General and administrative – Three months ended $ 1,294 $ 1,031 $ 263 25.5 % General and administrative – Six months ended $ 2,309 $ 2,014 $ 295 14.6 % 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 September 30, 2024 compared with the same period of 2023, primarily as a result of increases in professional service, recruiting, legal and consulting expenses of approximately $0.3 million. G&A expenses increased for the six months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the same period of 2023, primarily as a result of an increase in legal and professional services expenses of approximately $0.3 million and stock-based compensation expense of approximately $0.1 million, partially offset by decreases in travel-related and other costs of $0.1 million. G&A expenses included stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $0.2 million for each of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We expect G&A expenses to increase in the second half of fiscal 2025, as we commence initial activities in support of commercialization of our MODD1 product. 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 our operations. For the six months ended September 30, 2024 and year ended March 31, 2024, we incurred net losses of approximately $9.1 million and $17.5 million, respectively. At September 30, 2024, we had a cash balance of $3.9 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $75 million. We expect to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future and incur cash outflows from operations, as we continue to invest in the development and commercialization of our products. We expect that our expenses will continue to increase, and, as a result, we will eventually need to generate significant revenue to achieve profitability. 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. 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 (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. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we sold 824,514 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $1.9 million under the ATM Agreement. Subject to market conditions, we expect to resume sales under the ATM during the remainder of fiscal 2025, however, the potential net proceeds from such future sales are unknown. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, we received a total of approximately $0.8 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 MODD1 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 product commercialization and R&D initiatives, reduce headcount and take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve our cash. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, we used approximately $7.3 million of cash in operating activities, which primarily resulted from our net loss of approximately $9.1 million and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of approximately $0.3 million, as adjusted for stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $1.6 million, depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $0.5 million and other immaterial adjustments. For the six months ended six September 30, 2023, we used approximately $6.5 million in operating activities, which primarily resulted from our net loss of approximately $7.9 million and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of approximately $0.2 million, as adjusted for stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $1.0 million, net changes in operating assets and liabilities of approximately $0.2 million and depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $0.2 million. 16 For the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, cash used in investing activities of approximately $1.0 million and $0.7 million , respectively, was for the purchase of property and equipment. Cash provided by financing activities of approximately $3.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024 was attributable to proceeds from the at-the-market sales of stock and exercise of common stock purchase warrants. Cash provided by financing activities of $9.7 million for the six months ended September 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 September 30, 2024, we had outstanding purchase orders for machinery and equipment and related expenditures of approximately $1.0 million. In December 2023, we signed a device integration agreement with a provider of connected-care and remote monitoring diabetes technology solutions. As of September 30, 2024, we had a remaining obligation under the device integration agreement of approximately $0.4 million over three years for technology license fees.
