BUSINESS** **Overview** **** We are a leading provider of ophthalmic disease management solutions in North America, and were founded with a commitment to deliver safe, effective, accessible, and affordable medications that enhance patient compliance and improve clinical outcomes. For over a decade, we have partnered with U.S. eyecare professionals to develop a comprehensive portfolio of high-quality products used to manage ophthalmic conditions affecting both the front and back of the eye, such as dry eye disease, wet (or neovascular) age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, refractive errors, glaucoma, and a range of other ocular surface conditions and retina diseases. By prioritizing clinical value to the provider and the patient Harrow empowers professionals to enhance patient outcomes and preserve vision. By combining our culture of creativity, entrepreneurship and groundbreaking innovation with operational discipline and strong financial performance, we are building a future where life-changing ophthalmic treatments are within reach for all. **Branded Ophthalmic Pharmaceuticals** **** Over the past several years, we have expanded our portfolio of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the FDA)-approved ophthalmic products through acquisitions, licensing transactions, and internal investment. These efforts are focused primarily on the U.S. and Canadian markets. We believe continued investment in our branded portfolio supports our ability to offer eyecare prescribers and patients access to a broader range of ophthalmic therapies across multiple disease states. We own U.S. commercial rights to the following products, which we market and sell: | | IHEEZO (chloroprocaine hydrochloride ophthalmic gel) 3%, a low-viscosity gel indicated for ocular surface anesthesia. | | | | VEVYE (cyclosporine ophthalmic solution) 0.1%, utilizes a novel water-free vehicle (perfluorobutylpentane) based on semifluorinated alkanes, indicated for the treatment of the signs and symptoms associated with dry eye disease. | | | | TRIESENCE (triamcinolone acetonide injectable suspension) 40 mg/ml, a steroid injection for the treatment of certain ophthalmic diseases and for visualization during vitrectomy. | | | | BYOOVIZ (ranibizumab-nuna) 0.05mL injection, the first FDA-approved LUCENTIS biosimilar indicated for the treatment of patients with Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), Macular Edema following Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO), and Myopic Choroidal Neovascularization (mCNV). We expect to commercially launch BYOOVIZ in mid-2026. | | | | | | | | OPUVIZ (aflibercept-yszy) 0.05mL injection, an FDA-approved EYLEA biosimilar indicated for the treatment of patients with Wet AMD, Macular Edema following RVO, Diabetic Macular Edema (DME), and Diabetic Retinopathy (DR). We expect to commercially launch OPUVIZ in mid-2027. | | | | | | | | BYQLOVITM (clobetasol propionate ophthalmic suspension) 0.05% a high-potency ophthalmic corticosteroid formulated using proprietary APNT nanoparticle formulation technology, indicated for the treatment of post-operative inflammation and pain following ocular surgery. We expect to commercially launch BYQLOVI in mid-2026. | | | | | | | | VIGAMOX (moxifloxacin hydrochloride ophthalmic solution) 0.5%, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic eye drop for the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis caused by susceptible strains of organisms. | | | 4 | | | | ILEVRO (nepafenac ophthalmic suspension) 0.3%, a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory eye drop indicated for pain and inflammation associated with cataract surgery. | | | | 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. | | | | VERKAZIA (cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion) 0.1%, an orphan designated drug that is a calcineurin inhibitor immunosuppressant indicated for the treatment of vernal keratoconjunctivitis. | | | | NEVANAC (nepafenac ophthalmic suspension) 0.1%, a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory eye drop indicated for pain and inflammation associated with cataract surgery. | | | | FRESHKOTE Preservative Free (PF) is a lubricant eye drop that does not require a prescription and temporarily relieves burning, itching and other dry eye symptoms. | | | | MAXITROL (neomycin and polymyxin B sulfates and dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension) is an eye drop used to treat steroid-responsive inflammatory ocular conditions where bacterial infection or a risk of bacterial ocular infection exist. | | | | | | | | 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. | | | | IOPIDINE 1% (apraclonidine hydrochloride), an ophthalmic solution in a sterile isotonic solution indicated to control or prevent post-surgical elevations in intraocular pressure that occur in patients after argon laser trabeculoplasty, argon laser iridotomy or Nd:YAG posterior capsulotomy. | | | | IOPIDINE 0.5% (apraclonidine hydrochloride) an ophthalmic solution indicated for short-term adjunctive therapy in patients on maximally tolerated medical therapy who require additional intraocular pressure (or IOP) reduction. | | | 5 | | We also own U.S. rights to some discontinued products (MOXEZA, VEXOL, ECONOPRED and TOBRASONE). In February 2024, we announced that we out-licensed Canadian rights for VERKAZIA, Cationorm PLUS (a preservative-free formulation for dry eye or allergy relief), VEVYE, ZERVIATE and IHEEZO to Apotex Inc. (Apotex). We also own worldwide rights to NATACYN and FRESHKOTE. **R&D Development Pipeline** Our development pipeline is focused on developing and commercializing differentiated pharmaceutical therapies designed to address unmet needs in eye care and selected adjacent markets. The pipeline is weighted toward late-stage and near-commercial assets with demonstrated clinical utility and clearer regulatory pathways, and we seek to advance programs through a disciplined, capital-efficient development strategy. Current development-stage programs include: | | MELT-300 (ketamine + midazolam ODT): completed Phase 3 clinical program; potential launch in 2028. MELT-300 is a patented, sublingual/orally disintegrating tablet that combines a fixed dose of midazolam (3 mg) and ketamine (50 mg) and is designed to provide rapid, predictable sedation without IV administration, including in cataract and other outpatient procedures. | | | | | | | | H-N08 (triamcinolone acetonide): current work is focused on chemistry, manufacturing and controls (CMC) optimization, and is expected to move into the clinic before the end of 2026, with a potential launch in 2028. H-N08 is an ophthalmic program built around triamcinolone acetonide intended to support inflammatory indications such as uveitis and/or improve intraoperative visualization in posterior-segment surgery (e.g., during vitrectomy). | | | | | | | | CR-01 (conjunctival delivery device): is in the proof-of-concept evaluation stage, with potential launch as early as 2029. CR-01 is a device-enabled program intended to deliver therapy via the conjunctiva for ocular neoplasia, a rare disease. | | | | | | | | MELT-210 (midazolam ODT): is currently in clinical development stage; with a potential launch in 2028. MELT-210 is a sublingual/orally disintegrating tablet being developed as a needle-free option for procedural sedation and related anxiolysis/amnesia needs, and has also been used in MELT-300s clinical program as a midazolam-only comparator. | | Development timelines and potential launch timing are subject to change based on clinical results, regulatory feedback, manufacturing readiness, and other factors. *MELT-300* **** We believe MELT-300 represents a transformative opportunity, building on more than a decade of real-world experience with MKO Melt a compounded sublingual sedation product sold by ImprimisRx and currently administered by over 800 U.S. ophthalmic institutions, primarily for used for procedural sedation during cataract surgery. As a potential FDA-approved successor, MELT-300 is a patented, sublingually delivered formulation of a fixed dose of midazolam (3mg) and ketamine (50mg) designed to provide rapid, predictable sedation without the need for intravenous administration. The MELT-300 Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical programs previously demonstrated statistical *superiority* to midazolam alone. The innovative approach to sedation MELT-300 offers has the potential to transform patient experiences across a wide range of office-based and outpatient procedures, addressing the healthcare systems growing demand to reduce exposure to opioids, including fentanyl. The MELT-300 program was the subject of a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) with the FDA, confirming that the completed Phase 3 study design, statistical approach, and endpoints adequately support a future regulatory submission. Having completed the Phase 3 program, our focus now turns to advancing MELT-300 toward FDA approval and commercialization. In support of a new drug application (an NDA) filing, we recently initiated one non-clinical animal study and three pharmacokinetic (PK) studies to generate the balance of the data we believe is necessary for an NDA package. Following completion of these studies, we expect to prepare and submit an NDA for MELT-300 in the first half of 2027. If promptly approved by the FDA, we expect to commercially launch MELT-300 in the second half of 2028. | 6 | | We believe these next steps position MELT-300 to become the first FDA-approved, non-opioid, non-IV sublingual sedation therapy in the U.S., representing a meaningful growth opportunity for Harrow and a major advancement in patient-centric procedural care. With patent coverage in the U.S. and other international markets and potential applications beyond ophthalmologyincluding gastroenterology, dental care, and other outpatient settings where sedation or anxiety management may be beneficial, such as diagnostic imaging, endoscopy and pre-anesthesiaMELT-300 may provide us the opportunity to expand into procedural sedation and anxiety management indications outside of eye care domestically and in international markets. **ImprimisRx** **** ImprimisRx is our ophthalmology-focused pharmaceutical compounding business. Since inception in 2014, ImprimisRx has provided ophthalmologists, optometrists, and their patients access to compounded medications intended to address needs that may be unmet by commercially available products, including combination therapies, alternative dosage strengths, and preservative-free formulations. Depending on formulation, applicable state requirements, and patient need, ImprimisRx products may be dispensed as patient-specific prescriptions from our 503A pharmacy or manufactured for in-office use in our FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facility in New Jersey. Our current ophthalmology formulary includes over 30 compounded formulations, many of which are patented or patent-pending, and our customer base includes more than 10,000 U.S. eyecare-dedicated prescribers and institutions. We operate two compounding facilities in Ledgewood, New Jersey. One facility is registered with the FDA as an outsourcing facility under Section 503B of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (the FDCA) (NJOF). The other facility is a licensed pharmacy operating under Section 503A of the FDCA (RxNJ). All compounded products we sell, produce, and dispense are made in the United States. We believe our current infrastructure supports continued scaling within the current regulatory landscape, and we may pursue additional capacity, redundancy, and market access through investments, partnerships, or strategic transactions. *Pharmaceutical Compounding* ** Pharmaceutical compounding involves preparing customized formulations for patients when commercially available products do not meet a patients clinical needs. Compounded formulations contain FDA-approved ingredients, but the compounded formulations themselves are not FDA-approved. Compounding is subject to extensive federal and state regulation and oversight, which can affect permissible activities, cost structure, and the ability to dispense into particular states. **Carved-Out Subsidiaries (De-Consolidated Businesses)** We have an ownership interest in Surface Ophthalmics, Inc. (Surface) and hold royalty interests in some of Surfaces drug candidates. Surface is pursuing market approval for its drug candidates under the FDCA, including in some instances under the abbreviated pathway described in Section 505(b)(2), which permits the submission of an NDA where at least some of the information required for approval comes from studies not conducted by or for the applicant and for which the applicant has not obtained a right of reference. We previously held ownership interests in Eton Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Eton) and sold the last of our interests in April 2024. *Acquisition of the Remaining Equity Interests of Melt Pharmaceuticals* ** Prior to November 2025, we held a minority ownership interest in Melt Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Melt), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary non-intravenous, sedation and anesthesia therapeutics for human medical procedures in hospital, outpatient, and in-office settings. Melt sought regulatory approval for its proprietary technologies, where possible. As of December 31, 2024, we owned approximately 45% of Melts equity and voting interests issued and outstanding, along with a mid-single digit royalty on future net sales of MELT-300. | 7 | | In September 2025, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) by and among Harrow, Harrow Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Harrow, Melt, and D. Brad Osborne, as stockholder representative. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement and a related milestone payment agreement, we agreed to acquire the remaining equity interests of Melt in exchange for an initial cash payment of approximately $4,300,000 at closing, and contingent consideration consisting of cash and Harrow equity upon achievement of (i) FDA approval of the MELT-300 product candidate, (ii) coding and reimbursement of the MELT-300 product candidate, and (iii) various one-time sales milestones. The regulatory and commercial milestones must be achieved on or before December 31, 2035. The Melt acquisition closed on November 17, 2025, and was treated as an asset acquisition for accounting purposes. As a result of such transaction, Melts drug candidates are now owned by Harrow and its research and development (R&D) activities subsequent to the acquisition are included in Harrows consolidated financial results as of the year ended December 31, 2025. **Sales and Marketing** The focus of our sales and marketing is in the U.S. We do, however, believe that our drug candidates and drug products could have commercial appeal in international markets, and have engaged distributors and entered into out-licensing arrangements for certain of our products and proprietary formulations in certain non-U.S. markets, including Canada. Our sales and marketing activities consist primarily of efforts to educate doctors, ambulatory surgery centers, healthcare systems, hospitals and other users throughout the U.S. about our drug products. We expect that we may experience growth in the sales of our products in future periods, particularly in light of our recent product launches and commercial campaigns. However, we may not be successful in doing so, whether due to the size of the markets for such products, which could be smaller than we expect, the timing of market entry relative to competitive products, the availability of alternative compounded formulations or FDA-approved drugs, the price of our products relative to alternative products or the success of our sales and marketing efforts, which is dependent on our ability to further build and continue to grow a qualified and adequate internal sales function. We expect to continue to acquire and/or develop additional FDA-approved products that allow us to leverage our existing commercial infrastructure to promote, sell, and ultimately bring these products to market. As we execute this strategy, we will continue to expand our sales and marketing team, expertise and expenses. **Supply Chains** 100% of our ImprimisRx finished compounded products are made in the U.S. at our compounding facilities located in New Jersey. We do not manufacture any of our branded pharmaceutical products and rely on third party manufacturing partners to make finished goods. The following table describes by product the country where our finished branded products are made. In some instances, multiple countries are listed to reflect either (i) expected changes in our contract manufacturer and location; and (ii) in certain cases, to reflect the country of a second contract manufacturer site: | Product | | Country Finished Product Is Manufactured | | | IHEEZO | | France | | | VEVYE | | U.S. and Spain | | | TRIESENCE | | U.S. | | | VIGAMOX | | Belgium | | | ILEVRO | | Belgium | | | FLAREX | | U.S., by end of 2026 production is expected to be in Taiwan | | | NATACYN | | U.S. | | | TOBRADEX ST | | U.S.; by end of 2026 production is expected to be in Taiwan | | | ZERVIATE | | France; by end of 2026 production is expected to be in Spain | | | VERKAZIA | | France | | | NEVANAC | | U.S.; by end of 2026 production is expected to be in Belgium | | | FRESHKOTE | | France; by end of 2026 production is expected to be in Spain | | | MAXIDEX | | U.S.; by end of 2026 production is expected to be in Belgium | | | MAXITROL | | Belgium | | | IOPIDINE 1% | | France | | | BYQLOVI | | Taiwan | | | 8 | | **Ophthalmology Market** Ophthalmic pharmaceuticals are used across several major categories of eye care, including high-volume procedures (such as cataract/lens procedures and refractive surgeries like LASIK), chronic ocular surface conditions (including dry eye disease), retina disease management (often involving physician-administered therapies delivered by intravitreal injection), and posterior-segment surgical care (including vitrectomy and related visualization and inflammation management). These settings drive demand for different classes of ophthalmic productssuch as anesthetics, anti-infectives, anti-inflammatories (including corticosteroids and NSAIDs), immunomodulators, and ocular surface lubricantsused before, during, and after procedures and for ongoing disease management. Utilization across these categories is influenced by procedure volumes and clinical practice patterns, the availability of therapeutic alternatives (including generics and biosimilars), and market access factors such as formulary placement, prior authorization/step therapy, reimbursement, and patient out-of-pocket costs. Our portfolio is focused on these major ophthalmic categories and spans products used in ocular surface disease, perioperative care, posterior-segment surgical and retina settings. We have limited exposure to glaucoma therapies. **Competition** The pharmaceutical industry is highly competitive. We compete with branded and generic pharmaceutical companies, biosimilar manufacturers, and other companies developing or commercializing ophthalmic therapies, including products used in ocular surface disease, perioperative care, and retina. Certain competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, manufacturing, and commercial resources than we do, and may be able to develop, obtain regulatory approval for, manufacture, market, and sell products more effectively than we can, including through larger sales forces, broader distribution networks, and greater access to capital. As a result, we may face competitive disadvantages in gaining or maintaining market share, achieving favorable formulary placement and reimbursement, securing manufacturing capacity and supply chain reliability, and sustaining pricing and margins. Biotechnology and pharmaceutical technologies are subject to rapid and significant change. Our success depends in part on our ability to maintain a competitive position with respect to new therapies, delivery methods, and competitive entrants, including generics and biosimilars. Competitors may introduce products that are safer, more effective, easier to use, more durable, more convenient, or more cost-effective than our products, or that achieve greater market access through reimbursement or contracting advantages. New competitive products could reduce demand for, or the market opportunity of, our existing products and could render our product candidates or lifecycle management initiatives less attractive or commercially viable before we recover development or commercialization investments. Competition also depends on factors such as clinical performance, physician adoption and practice patterns, timing of market entry, regulatory developments, product availability and supply reliability, pricing and patient affordability, third-party reimbursement, and the effectiveness of sales, marketing, and distribution efforts. If we are unable to compete effectively with current or future products of our competitors, our revenues, profitability, and growth prospects could be materially and adversely affected. To the extent we offer compounded formulations through our pharmacy operations, those products also face competition from FDA-approved alternatives and other compounded products, and utilization may be affected by physician and patient preferences and applicable regulatory requirements. | 9 | | **Factors Affecting Our Performance** We believe the primary factors affecting our performance are our ability to increase revenues of our ophthalmic products, grow and gain operating efficiencies in our pharmacy operations, successfully adjust our operations to account for any future regulatory-related restrictions, optimize pricing and obtain reimbursement options for our ophthalmic 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 or have been recently launched. 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 increased costs and other resources, which we may not have or be able to obtain from operations or other sources. See Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources. **Medicare, Medicaid and Other Reimbursement Options** Sales in the U.S. of our marketed products are dependent, in large part, on the availability and extent of reimbursement from third-party payors, including private payor healthcare and insurance programs, health maintenance organizations, pharmacy benefit management companies, and government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. See Item 1A. Risk Factors for risks related to reimbursement and government programs. We participate in, and have certain price reporting obligations to, the Medicaid Drug Rebate program, state Medicaid supplemental rebate program(s), and other governmental pricing programs. We also have obligations to report the average sales price for certain drugs to the Medicare program. Under the Medicaid Drug Rebate program, we are required to pay a rebate to each state Medicaid program for our covered outpatient drugs that are dispensed to Medicaid beneficiaries and paid for by a state Medicaid program as a condition of having federal funds being made available for our drugs under Medicaid and Part B of the Medicare program. Medicare is a federal program that is administered by the federal government that covers individuals age 65 and over or that are disabled as well as those with certain health conditions. Medicare Part B generally covers drugs that must be administered by physicians or other health care practitioners; are provided in connection with certain durable medical equipment; or are certain oral anti-cancer drugs and certain oral immunosuppressive drugs. Medicare Part B pays for such drugs under a payment methodology based on the average sales price of the drugs. Manufacturers, including us, are required to report average sales price information to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) on a quarterly basis. The manufacturer-submitted information may be used by CMS to calculate Medicare payment rates. Starting in 2023, manufacturers are now required to pay refunds to Medicare for single-source drugs or biological products, or biosimilar biological products, reimbursed under Medicare Part B and packaged in single-dose containers or single-use packages for units of discarded drug reimbursed by Medicare Part B in excess of 10% of total allowed charges under Medicare Part B for that drug. Manufacturers that fail to pay refunds could be subject to civil monetary penalties. Further, starting in 2023, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) established a Medicare Part B inflation rebate scheme, effective in 2023, under which, generally speaking, manufacturers will owe rebates if the average sales price of a Part B drug increases faster than the pace of inflation. Failure to timely pay a Part B inflation rebate is subject to a civil monetary penalty. The IRA also created a drug price negotiation program under which, after being on the market for a certain period of time, the prices for certain high Medicare spending drugs and biological products provided to Medicare patients without generic or biosimilar competition will be capped by reference to, among other things, a specified non-federal average manufacturer price, starting in 2026. Failure to comply with requirements under the drug price negotiation program is subject to an excise tax and a civil monetary penalty. This or any other legislative change could impact the market conditions for our products. | 10 | | BYOOVIZ, OPUVIZ, IHEEZO and TRIESENCE are covered under Medicare Part B and we are developing other product candidates and may acquire drug products that are also covered under Medicare Part B. In February 2023, we announced that 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. TRIESENCE has a permanent product specific J-code (J3300) as well, which physicians can use for reimbursement purposes of that product. Similarly, BYOOVIZ and OPUVIZ have permanent product specific reimbursement codes of Q5124 and Q5153, respectively, which healthcare professionals can use for reimbursement of those biosimilar products. 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 the second quarter of 2023 and temporary pass-through reimbursement for TRIESENCE was made effective April 1, 2025. We expect pass-through status for IHEEZO to expire March 31, 2026. Following the expiration of pass-through status, under current CMS policy, non-opioid pain management surgical drugs when used on Medicare Part B patients in an outpatient setting can qualify for ongoing separate payments. CMS current non-opioid separate payment policy, like other CMS policies, can be changed by CMS through its annual rulemaking and comment process. Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that is administered by the states for low-income and disabled beneficiaries. Medicaid rebates are based on pricing data reported by us on a monthly and quarterly basis to CMS, the federal agency that administers the Medicaid and Medicare programs. These data include the average manufacturer price and, in the case of innovator products, the best price for each drug which, in general, represents the lowest price available from the manufacturer to any entity in the U.S. in any pricing structure, calculated to include all sales and associated rebates, discounts, and other price concessions. The amount of the rebate is adjusted upward if the average manufacturer price increases at a faster rate than inflation (measured by reference to the Consumer Price Index Urban). The rebate was previously capped at 100% of the average manufacturer price, but effective January 1, 2024, this cap on the rebate was removed, and our rebate liability could increase accordingly. If we become aware that our reporting for a prior quarter was incorrect or has changed as a result of recalculation of the pricing data, we are obligated to resubmit the corrected data for up to three years after those data originally were due, which revisions could affect our rebate liability for prior quarters. The federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (the PPACA or Health Care Reform Law) made significant changes to the Medicaid Drug Rebate program, and CMS issued a final regulation, which became effective on April 1, 2016, to implement the changes to the Medicaid Drug Rebate program under the PPACA. Effective in 2022, CMS modified Medicaid Drug Rebate program regulations to, among other things, permit reporting multiple best price figures with regard to value-based purchasing arrangements and provide definitions for line extension, new formulation, and related terms with the practical effect of expanding the scope of drugs considered to be line extensions. Civil monetary penalties can be applied if we are found to have knowingly submitted any false pricing or other information to the government, if we are found to have made a misrepresentation in the reporting of our average sales price, or if we fail to submit the required data on a timely basis. Such conduct also could be grounds for CMS to terminate our Medicaid drug rebate agreement, in which case federal payments may not be available under Medicaid or Medicare Part B for our covered outpatient drugs. Federal law requires that any company that participates in the Medicaid Drug Rebate program also participate in the Public Health Services 340B drug pricing program (the 340B program) in order for federal funds to be available for the manufacturers drugs under Medicaid and Medicare Part B. The 340B program, which is administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), requires participating manufacturers to agree to charge statutorily defined covered entities no more than the 340B ceiling price for the manufacturers covered outpatient drugs. Covered entities include hospitals that serve a disproportionate share of financially needy patients, community health clinics, and other entities that receive certain types of grants under the Public Health Service Act. The PPACA expanded the list of covered entities to include certain free-standing cancer hospitals, critical access hospitals, rural referral centers, and sole community hospitals, but exempts orphan drugs from the ceiling price requirements for these covered entities. The 340B ceiling price is calculated using a statutory formula, which is based on the average manufacturer price and Medicaid rebate amount for the covered outpatient drug as calculated under the Medicaid Drug Rebate program. In general, products subject to Medicaid price reporting and rebate liability are also subject to the 340B ceiling price calculation and discount requirement. | 11 | | HRSA issued a final regulation regarding the calculation of the 340B ceiling price and the imposition of civil monetary penalties on manufacturers that knowingly and intentionally overcharge covered entities, which became effective on January 1, 2019. It is currently unclear how HRSA will apply its enforcement authority under this regulation. Any charge by HRSA that we have violated the requirements of the regulation could result in civil monetary penalties. Moreover, under a final regulation effective January 13, 2021, HRSA established a new administrative dispute resolution (ADR) process for claims by covered entities that a manufacturer has engaged in overcharging, and by manufacturers that a covered entity violated the prohibitions against diversion or duplicate discounts. Such claims are to be resolved through an ADR panel of government officials rendering a decision that could be appealed only in federal court. An ADR proceeding could subject us to onerous procedural requirements and could result in additional liability. On November 30, 2022, HRSA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking that proposes several changes to the ADR process. HRSA also implemented a price reporting system under which we are required to report our 340B ceiling prices to HRSA on a quarterly basis, which then publishes those prices to 340B covered entities. In addition, legislation could be passed that would further expand the 340B program to additional covered entities or would require participating manufacturers to agree to provide 340B discounted pricing on drugs used in an inpatient setting. In order to be eligible to have our products paid for with federal funds under the Medicaid and Medicare Part B programs and purchased by certain federal agencies and grantees, we participate in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) pricing program. FSS participation is required for our products to be purchased by the VA, Department of Defense (DoD), Coast Guard, and Public Health Service (PHS). Prices for innovator drugs purchased by the VA, DoD, Coast Guard, and PHS are subject to a cap (known as the Federal Ceiling Price) equal to 76% of the annual non-federal average manufacturer price (non-FAMP) minus, if applicable, an additional discount. The additional discount applies if non-FAMP increases more than inflation (measured by reference to the Consumer Price Index - Urban). We also participate in the Tricare Retail Pharmacy Program, under which we pay quarterly rebates to DoD for prescriptions of our innovator drugs dispensed to Tricare beneficiaries through Tricare Retail network pharmacies. The governing statute provides for civil monetary penalties for failure to provide information timely or for knowingly submitting false information to the government. Medicare Part D provides coverage to enrolled Medicare patients for self-administered drugs (i.e., drugs that are not administered by a physician). Medicare Part D is administered by private prescription drug plans approved by the U.S. government and, subject to detailed program rules and government oversight, each drug plan establishes its own Medicare Part D formulary for prescription drug coverage and pricing, which the drug plan may modify from time to time. The prescription drug plans negotiate pricing with manufacturers and pharmacies, and may condition formulary placement on the availability of manufacturer discounts. In addition, manufacturers, including us, are required to provide to CMS a 70% discount on brand name prescription drugs utilized by Medicare Part D beneficiaries when those beneficiaries are in the coverage gap phase of the Part D benefit design. The IRA includes a sunset provision with respect to the coverage gap discount program starting in 2025 and replaces it with a new manufacturer discount program. In addition, as of October 2022, the IRA established a Medicare Part D inflation rebate scheme under which, manufacturers will generally owe additional rebates if the average manufacturer price of a Part D drug increases faster than the pace of inflation. Failure to timely pay a Part D inflation rebate is subject to a civil monetary penalty. Private payor healthcare and insurance providers, health maintenance organizations, and pharmacy benefit managers in the U.S. are adopting more aggressive utilization management techniques and are increasingly requiring significant discounts and rebates from manufacturers as a condition to including products on formulary with favorable coverage and copayment/coinsurance. These payors may not cover or adequately reimburse for use of our products or may do so at levels that disadvantage them relative to competitive products. | 12 | | **Intellectual Property** **** Our success and ability to compete depends upon our ability to protect our intellectual property. We conduct a fulsome analysis of the intellectual property landscape prior to acquiring rights to formulations and filing patent applications. In addition, as of March 2, 2026, we owned and/or licensed more than 50 issued and pending patent applications, which include U.S.-issued patents, international-issued patents, and U.S. and foreign/international patent pending applications. We expect to file additional patent applications in the U.S. and pursue patent protection for certain of our formulations in other important international jurisdictions in the future. As of March 2, 2026, we had, on a worldwide basis, more than 100 issued trademarks, pending trademark and copyright applications, or registered copyrights and/or trademarks. We also rely on unpatented trade secrets and know-how and continuing technological innovation in order to develop our products and formulations, which we seek to protect, in part, by confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, collaborators and others, including certain service providers. We also have invention or patent assignment agreements with our current employees and certain consultants. However, our employees and consultants may breach these agreements, and we may not have adequate remedies for any breach, or our trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently discovered by competitors. In addition, inventions relevant to us could be developed by a person not bound by an invention assignment agreement with us, in which case we may have no rights to use the applicable invention. The following table lists some of our outstanding material patents in the U.S. covering certain branded products we own commercial rights to, general subject matter and latest expiry date. One or more patents with the same or earlier expiry dates may fall under the same general subject matter and are not listed separately. | Product | | General Subject Matter | | Expiration | | | IHEEZO | | Methods using topical formulations Compositions comprising chloroprocaine | | September 2038 May 2039 | | | VEVYE | | Formulation composition for treatment of dry eye syndrome Ophthalmic composition comprising cyclosporine Semiflourinated compounds for ophthalmic administration Topical administration method | | December 2030 September 2037 November 2038 October 2039 | | | TRIESENCE | | Composition of injectable suspension Methods for treating ophthalmic disorder | | December 2029 March 2029 | | | ILEVRO | | Composition comprising carbomer, galactomannan and borate Carboxyvinyle polymer-containing nanoparticle suspension | | December 2030 March 2032 | | | BYQLOVI | | Aqueous suspension comprising nanoparticles A method of treating an eye inflammatory or infectious disease | | May 2036 May 2036 | | | VERKAZIA | | Methods for treating eye disease Compositions of oil-in-water cationic emulsion Compositions containing quaternary ammonium compounds | | May 2027 November 2027 June 2029 | | **Governmental Regulation** Our business is subject to federal, state and local laws, regulations, and administrative practices, including, among others: federal, state and local licensure and registration requirements concerning the operation of pharmacies and the practice of pharmacy; the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA); the Health Care Reform Law; statutes and regulations of the FDA, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the FTC), the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, as well as regulations promulgated by comparable state agencies concerning the sale, advertisement and promotion of the products we sell. The regulatory and quality compliance environment for compounded drugs has become significantly more rigorous, complex and strict since the passage of The Drug Quality and Security Act of 2013 (the DQSA). The complexity of the current state and federal regulatory environment, as well as the expected continued evolution of state and federal laws governing pharmaceutical compounding, have presented, and will continue to present, potentially significant challenges to our business model and the fulfillment of our mission as a company. Below are descriptions of some of the various federal and state laws and regulations which may govern or impact our current and planned operations. | 13 | | **FDA New Drug Application (NDA) Process** As discussed in other sections of this Annual Report, we are pursuing, and may continue to pursue, alone or with project partners, FDA approval to market and sell one or more of our product candidates through the FDAs NDA process. As a condition of approval, the FDA or other regulatory authorities may require further studies, including Phase 4 post-marketing studies, to provide additional data. Other post-marketing studies may be required to gain approval for the use of a product as a treatment for clinical indications other than those for which the product was initially tested and approved. Also, the FDA or other regulatory authorities require post-marketing reporting to monitor the adverse effects of a drug. Results of post-marketing programs may limit or expand the further marketing of a product. The FDA closely regulates the post-approval marketing and promotion of drugs, including standards and regulations for direct-to-consumer advertising, off-label promotion, industry-sponsored scientific and educational activities and promotional activities involving the Internet. A company can make only those claims relating to safety and efficacy that are approved by the FDA. Failure to comply with these requirements can result in adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising, fines and potential civil and criminal penalties. *Section 505(b)(2) New Drug Applications* As an alternate path for FDA approval of new indications or new formulations of previously-approved products, a company may file a Section 505(b)(2) NDA instead of a stand-alone or full NDA. Section 505(b)(2) of the FDCA was enacted as part of the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, otherwise known as the Hatch-Waxman Amendments. Section 505(b)(2) permits the submission of an NDA where at least some of the information required for approval comes from studies not conducted by or for the applicant and for which the applicant has not obtained a right of reference. Some examples of products that may be allowed to follow a Section 505(b)(2) path to approval are drugs that have a new dosage form, strength, route of administration, formulation or indication. The Hatch-Waxman Amendments permit the applicant to rely upon certain published nonclinical or clinical studies conducted for an approved product or the FDAs conclusions from prior review of such studies. The FDA may require companies to perform additional studies or measurements to support any changes from the approved product. The FDA may then approve the new product for all or some of the labeled indications for which the reference product has been approved, as well as for any new indication supported by the Section 505(b)(2) application. While references to nonclinical and clinical data not generated by the applicant or for which the applicant does not have a right of reference are allowed, all development, process, stability, qualification and validation data related to the manufacturing and quality of the new product must be included in an NDA submitted under Section 505(b)(2). To the extent that the Section 505(b)(2) applicant is relying on the FDAs conclusions regarding studies conducted for an already approved product, the applicant is required to certify to the FDA concerning any patents listed for the approved product in the FDAs Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations, or Orange Book. Specifically, the applicant must certify that: (i) the required patent information has not been filed; (ii) the listed patent has expired; (iii) the listed patent has not expired, but will expire on a particular date and approval is sought after patent expiration; or (iv) the listed patent is invalid or will not be infringed by the new product. The Section 505(b)(2) application also will not be approved until any non-patent exclusivity, such as exclusivity for obtaining approval of a new chemical entity, listed in the Orange Book for the referenced product has expired. Thus, the Section 505(b)(2) applicant may invest a significant amount of time and expense in the development of its products only to be subject to significant delay and patent litigation before its products may be commercialized. **Pharmacy Regulation** Our pharmacy operations are regulated by both the federal government and the states in which we operate or dispense. State laws and regulations generally address licensing of pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and pharmacies, as well as requirements applicable to compounding activities, including quality standards, sterility assurance, storage, controlled substances, recordkeeping and inspections. State requirements are administered and updated periodically, generally under the jurisdiction of state boards of pharmacy. Failure to comply with applicable state requirements could result in fines, corrective action, heightened oversight, restrictions on operations, suspension, non-renewal or revocation of licenses, or limitations on our ability to dispense into particular jurisdictions. In addition, some states have adopted, or may adopt, more stringent requirements applicable to compounding pharmacies, which could increase compliance costs or limit permissible activities. | 14 | | The federal regulatory framework for compounding is set forth primarily in Sections 503A and 503B of the FDCA, as amended by the Drug Quality and Security Act (DQSA). Section 503A generally addresses pharmacy compounding of patient-specific prescriptions and includes limitations on compounding in advance of receiving prescriptions. Section 503B establishes outsourcing facilities, which may compound certain sterile drug products without patient-specific prescriptions, subject to additional requirements, including current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) and FDA inspection. Our operations include both a Section 503A pharmacy and a Section 503B outsourcing facility, each subject to the applicable requirements and oversight framework. Many states require non-resident or out-of-state pharmacies and outsourcing facilities to register with, or obtain licensure from, the applicable state board of pharmacy or other authority to dispense into that state. These requirements vary by state and may change over time. In January 2026, the California Board of Pharmacy approved a settlement agreement between ImprimisRx and the California State Board of Pharmacy, resolving an administrative action brought by the California Board of Pharmacy regarding certain regulatory compliance matters. As part of the settlement, ImprimisRx agreed to surrender its 503B out-of-state outsourcing facility license and its 503A out-of-state compounding pharmacy license on February 1, 2026. If additional states were to take similar actions, or if we are unable to obtain or maintain required registrations or licenses, our ability to dispense compounded products into certain states could be limited and the cumulative effect could be material. Our Section 503B outsourcing facility is subject to FDA inspection and enforcement authority. We have been subject to FDA inspection and have undertaken remediation and quality initiatives, including engaging an independent third-party cGMP expert. If we are unable to demonstrate sustained compliance with cGMP or other applicable requirements, the FDA could pursue administrative or judicial enforcement actions, which could be costly and could result in restrictions on operations or other adverse consequences. See Item 1A Risk Factors. We compound formulations consistent with applicable standards and requirements, including USP 795 and USP 797, as adopted or applied by regulators, and other applicable state and federal law. Changes in USP standards, FDA policies, state requirements, or enforcement priorities may require operational adjustments and could increase costs or limit permissible activities. **Confidentiality, Privacy and HIPAA** Our pharmacy operations involve the receipt, use and disclosure of confidential medical, pharmacy and other health-related information. In addition, we use aggregated and blinded (anonymous) data for research and analysis purposes. The federal privacy regulations under HIPAA are designed to protect the medical information of a healthcare patient or health plan enrollee that could be used to identify the individual. Among other things, HIPAA limits certain uses and disclosures of protected health information and requires compliance with federal security regulations regarding the storage, utilization and transmission of and access to electronic protected health information. The requirements imposed by HIPAA are extensive. In addition, most states and certain other countries have enacted privacy and security laws that protect identifiable patient information that is not health-related. For example, California enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act (the CCPA) that creates new individual privacy rights for consumers and places increased privacy and security obligations on entities handling personal data of consumers or households. Effective January 1, 2020, the CCPA gives California residents expanded privacy rights and protections, and provides civil penalties for violations and a private right of action for data breaches. The CCPA exemplifies the vulnerability of our business to not only cyber threats but also the evolving regulatory environment related to personal data and protected health information. In addition, the California Invasion of Privacy Act prohibits the use of any machine, instrument, or contrivance to tap any telephonic communication and use of any electronic amplifying or recording device to eavesdrop upon a confidential communication without consent of all parties to the communication. Other countries also have, or are developing, laws governing the collection, use and transmission of personal information, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union (the EU) that became effective in May 2018 and the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act that became effective in Canada in April 2000. Further, several states have enacted more protective and comprehensive pharmacy-related privacy legislation that not only applies to patient records but also prohibits the transfer or use for commercial purposes of pharmacy data that identifies prescribers. These regulations impose substantial requirements on covered entities and their business associates regarding the storage, utilization and transmission of and access to personal health and non-health information. Many of these laws apply to our business. | 15 | | **International Regulation** If we pursue commercialization of our products in countries other than the U.S. and where we do not have regulatory market approval, then we may need to obtain the approvals required by the regulatory authorities of such foreign countries that are comparable to the FDA and state boards of pharmacy, and we would be subject to a variety of other foreign statutes and regulations comparable to those relating to our U.S. operations. Regulatory frameworks and requirements vary by country and could involve significant additional licensing requirements and product testing and review periods. We currently partner with companies to sell, market and distribute some of our products in certain foreign countries. **Environmental and Other Matters** We are or may become subject to environmental laws and regulations governing, among other things, any use and disposal by us of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances in connection with our research and preparation of our formulations. In addition, we are subject to work safety and labor laws that govern certain of our operations and our employee relations. In each of these areas, as described above, the FDA and other government agencies have broad regulatory and enforcement powers, including, among other things, the ability to levy fines and civil penalties, suspend or delay issuance of approvals, licenses or permits, seize or recall products, and withdraw approvals, any one or more of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. **Research and Development Expenses** Our R&D expenses incurred in 2025, 2024 and 2023 primarily included expenses related to development of intellectual property, researcher and investigator-initiated evaluations, and formulation development related primarily to our ophthalmic products, formulations and certain other assets, in addition to costs associated with our drug candidate development programs. In 2025, R&D expenses included $8,450,000 recorded as acquired-in-process R&D as part of the acquisition of Melt in November 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we incurred $20,940,000 in R&D expenses, compared to $12,230,000 and $6,652,000 during the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. **Financial Information About Segments and Geographic Areas** The Company has identified two operating segments as reportable segments. The Branded segment includes activities of our FDA approved ophthalmology pharmaceutical products, including the out-licensing of rights to certain of our products. The ImprimisRx segment represents activities in our ophthalmology-focused pharmaceutical compounding business. The Companys chief operating decision-maker (CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) who evaluates the segment contribution to allocate resources. The CODM does not review segment assets when assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The Company categorizes revenues by geographic area based on selling location. All operations are currently located in the U.S.; therefore, total revenues for 2025, 2024 and 2023 were attributed to the U.S. All long-lived assets at December 31, 2025 and 2024 were located in the U.S. **Human Capital** As of February 25, 2026, we employed 373 individuals. Our employees are engaged in sales, marketing, research, development, pharmacy operations, and general and administrative functions. We expect to add additional employees in all departmental functions, with a focus on sales force additions and other commercial activities as we carry out our business plan in the next 12 months. We are not party to any collective bargaining agreements with any of our employees. We have never experienced a work stoppage, and we believe our employee relations are good. We hire independent contractors and consultants on an as-needed basis. | 16 | | **Talent Acquisition and Retention** We recognize that our employees largely contribute to our success. To this end, we support business growth by seeking to attract and retain best-in-class talent. Our talent acquisition team uses internal and external resources to recruit highly skilled candidates in the U.S. We believe that we continue to attract and retain superior talent as measured by our turnover rate and employee service tenure. **Total Rewards** Our total rewards philosophy has been to create investment in our workforce by offering competitive compensation and benefits packages. We provide employees with compensation packages that include base salary, annual incentive bonuses, and long-term equity awards. We also offer comprehensive employee benefits, which vary by country and region, such as life, disability, and health insurance, health savings and flexible spending accounts, paid time off, and a 401(k) plan. It is our expressed intent to be an employer of choice in our industry by providing market-competitive compensation and benefits packages. **Health, Safety, and Wellness** The health, safety, and wellness of our employees is a priority in which we have always invested and will continue to do so. We provide our employees and their families with access to a variety of innovative, flexible, and convenient health and wellness programs. Program benefits are intended to provide protection and security, so employees can have peace of mind concerning events that may require time away from work or that may impact their financial well-being. **Training and Development** We believe in encouraging employees in becoming lifelong learners by providing ongoing learning, training and leadership opportunities. We provide our employees with a tuition reimbursement program, and in certain instances, onsite training programs. While we strive to provide real-time recognition of employee performance, we have a formal annual review process not only to determine pay and equity adjustments tied to individual contributions, but to identify areas where training and development may be needed. **Company Information** We were incorporated in Delaware in January 2006 as Bywater Resources, Inc. In September 2007, we closed a merger transaction with Transdel Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. and changed our name to Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. As part of a corporate re-organization that was led by our CEO, Mark L. Baum and our President and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Andrew R. Boll, we changed our name to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in February 2012. Then to align with a shift in our corporate strategy that included the expansion into branded ophthalmic products and product candidates, we changed the name of our company to Harrow Health, Inc. in December 2018 and then to Harrow, Inc. in September 2023. Our corporate headquarters are located at 1A Burton Hills Blvd., Suite 200, Nashville, Tennessee, 37215, and our telephone number at such office is (615) 733-4730. We file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other reports from time to time. We are an electronic filer and the SEC maintains an internet site at www.sec.gov that contains the reports, proxy and information statements, and other information filed electronically. Our website address, which is provided as an inactive textual reference only, is www.harrow.com. We make available free of charge through the website Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC.

RISK FACTORS** **Risk Factors Summary** We are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, including financial risks, operational risks, human capital risks, legal proceedings and regulatory risks and certain general risks, that could have a material adverse effect on our business results of operations, financial condition and prospects. Risks that we deem material are described below and include, but are not limited to, the following: *Risks Related to Economic Conditions and Operations of Our Business.* | | | Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability for our business | | | | | | | | | | Our ability to successfully market, commercialize, and sell current, recently acquired and future products | | | | | | | | | | Our current indebtedness and ability to access additional capital | | | | | | | | | | Our ability to attract customers and increase sales of current and future products | | | | | | | | | | Our ability to obtain marketing approval and ongoing expense associated with it for any of our drug candidates, including those for which we own royalty rights | | | | | | | | | | Our reliance on third parties for manufacturing certain components, FDA approved drugs and to conduct clinical trials | | | | | Our exposure to liabilities and reputation harm if our products give rise to defects, recalls, patient injury or death | | | | | | | | | | Our information technology systems exposure to cyberattack or information security breach could significantly compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our information technology systems | | | | | | | | | | Global macroeconomic volatility and conditions may adversely affect our business. | | *Risks Related to Government Regulations, Trade Policy and Third-Party Policies* | | | Our business may be affected by litigation, government investigations and injunctive actions | | | | | | | | | | Governmental regulations, including, but not limited to, 503B bulks list and others, that could or currently do burden operations or narrow the market for our products | | | | | | | | | | If we fail to comply with federal or state statutes and regulations with respect to licensure and operation of our business, our pharmacy facilities could be required to cease operations or become subject to restrictions that could adversely affect our business | | | | | | | | | | Our sales depend on coverage and reimbursement from government and commercial third-party payors, and pricing and reimbursement pressures have affected, and are likely to continue to affect, our profitability | | | | | | | | | | The adoption and interpretation of new tax legislation or exposure to additional tax liabilities could affect our profitability | | | | | | | | | | Changes in U.S. trade policy, including tariffs or other import restrictions. | | *Risks Related to Competition* | | | Securing and maintaining patent or other intellectual property protection for our products and related improvements | | | | | | | | | | Market acceptance of our drug products, drug candidates, compounded drugs and pharmacies | | | | | | | | | | Our ability to successfully research, develop and timely manufacture our current and future products and drug candidates | | | | | | | | | | Our ability to enforce protect our intellectual property rights along with the potential of future legal proceedings filed against us claiming intellectual property infringement | | | | | | | | | | Retention, recruitment, and training of senior management and key personnel | | | 18 | | *Risks Related to Product Development, Regulatory Approval, Manufacturing and Commercialization* | | | We may not be able to develop commercial products despite significant investments in R&D | | | | | | | | | | Our branded products and product candidates in development cannot be sold without regulatory approval | | | | | | | | | | Our drug candidates may face competition sooner than we expect | | | | | | | | | | We rely on third parties to manufacture and conduct clinical trials of our branded drug products and product candidates | | | | | | | | | | We may not be successful in obtaining market exclusivity for our product candidates | | | | | | | | | | Disruptions at government agenciesdue to funding lapses, shutdowns, staffing constraints, reorganizations, or shifting policy prioritiescould adversely affect our business . | | *Risks Related to Our Indebtedness* | | | Our ability to pay interest and debt service payments associated with the 2030 Notes (as defined below) | | | | | | | | | | We could enter into various transactions that could increase the amount of our outstanding debt or adversely affect our capital structure or credit rating. | | *Risks Related to Our Common Stock* | | | Volatility of the price of our common stock | | | | | | | | | | Our stock price falling as a result of future offerings or sales | | *You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report. Our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prices of our common stock could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks.* ** **Risks Related to Economic Conditions and Operations of Our Business.** **** **We may not be profitable in the future.** As of December 31, 2025, our accumulated deficit was $156,524,000. Our current projections indicate that we will have operating income and/or net income during 2026; however, these projections may not be correct and our plans could change. Also, we could incur operating losses in the foreseeable future for our commercialization activities, research and development, and our pharmaceutical compounding business, which would impact net income. Although we have been generating revenue from our operations, our ability to generate the revenues necessary to achieve and maintain profitability will depend on many factors, including those discussed in this Risk Factors section. Our business plan and strategies involve costly activities that are susceptible to failure, and, therefore, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to support and sustain our business or reach the level of sales and revenues necessary to achieve and sustain profitability. **We may not receive sufficient revenue to fund our operations and recover our development costs.** **** Our business plan involves the sale and marketing of FDA-approved products, compounded formulations and development of drug candidates through third-party wholesaler and pharmacy channels and our ImprimisRx facilities. We have limited experience selling FDA-approved products, and we may be unable to successfully manage this business or generate sufficient revenue to recover our development costs and operational expenses. We may have only limited success in marketing and selling our products. Although we have established and plan to grow our internal sales teams to market and sell our products, we have limited experience with such activities and may not be able to generate sufficient physician and patient interest in our products to generate significant revenue from sales of these products. **We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of our recent and any future product acquisitions.** The success of our product acquisitions will depend on, among other things, our ability to integrate the products into our commercial platform, transfer the products NDAs, maintain and obtain sufficient payor reimbursement coverage, maintain an adequate supply of the products, market the products to our existing customers and re-introduce BYOOVIZ to the ophthalmic market. If we experience difficulties with the implementation of plans with respect to our acquisitions, the anticipated benefits of recent or future acquisitions may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. Integration efforts will also divert managements attention and resources. These matters could have an adverse effect during any transition period and for an undetermined period after completion of the acquisitions. | 19 | | **We may not be able to correctly estimate our future operating expenses, which could lead to cash shortfalls.** The estimates of our future operating and capital expenditures are based upon our current business plan, our current operations and our current expectations regarding product sales. Our projections have varied significantly from actual performance in the past as a result of changes to our business model, strategy and acquisitions. We may not accurately estimate the potential revenues and expenses of our operations. If we are unable to correctly estimate the amount of cash necessary to fund our business, we could spend our available financial resources much faster than we expect. If we do not have sufficient funds to continue to operate and develop our business, we could be required to seek additional financing earlier than we expect, which may not be available when needed or at all, or be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our proposed operations. **If we do not successfully identify and acquire rights to new products and drug candidates and successfully integrate them into our operations, our growth opportunities may be limited.** We plan to pursue the development of new FDA approved products and drug candidates which may include continued activities to develop and commercialize current assets or, if and as opportunities arise, potential acquisitions of new intellectual property rights and assets. We have historically relied, and, to a certain extent, we expect to continue to rely, primarily upon third parties to provide us with additional development opportunities. We may seek to enter into acquisition agreements or licensing arrangements to obtain rights to develop new formulations and FDA approved products in the future, but only if we are able to identify attractive products and formulations and negotiate acquisition or license agreements on terms acceptable to us, which we may not be able to do. Moreover, we have limited resources to acquire additional potential product development assets and integrate them into our business. Acquisition opportunities may involve competition among several potential purchasers, which could include large multi-national pharmaceutical companies and other competitors that have access to greater financial resources than we do. If we are unable to obtain rights to development and commercial opportunities from third parties and we are unable to rely upon our compounding pharmacies and current and future relationships with pharmacists, physicians and other inventors to provide us with additional development opportunities, our growth and prospects could be limited. Our product development strategy is to focus on ophthalmology and eye care related products for which we believe there is market potential, unmet needs and/or unique value to physicians and patients and to develop and offer products within these therapeutic areas that could afford us with gross and operating margins consistent with our current and historical figures. However, our expectations and assumptions about market potential and patient needs may prove to be wrong, and we may invest capital and other resources on products, drug candidates, and formulations that do not generate sufficient revenues for us to recoup our investment. **We may be unable to successfully develop and commercialize our drug products, candidates or any other assets we may acquire.** **** We have acquired assets related to drug products and drug candidates. We are currently pursuing development and commercialization opportunities with respect to a number of these products and drug candidates, and we are in the process of assessing certain of our other assets in order to determine whether to pursue their development or commercialization. In addition, we expect to consider the acquisition of additional intellectual property rights or other assets in the future. Once we decide to pursue a potential drug candidate, we develop a commercialization strategy for it, which may include pursuing FDA approval of the drug candidate. We may incorrectly assess the risks and benefits of the commercialization options or we may not pursue a commercialization strategy that proves to be successful. If we are unable to successfully commercialize one or more of our drug products and drug candidates, our operating results would be adversely affected. Even if we are able to successfully sell one or more drug products and drug candidates, we may never recoup our investment in acquiring or developing the drug products and drug candidates. Our failure to identify and expend our resources and technologies with commercial potential and execute an effective commercialization strategy for each of our drug products and drug candidates would negatively impact the long-term profitability of our business. | 20 | | **We may need additional capital in order to continue operating our business and to operate as a going concern, and such additional funds may not be available when needed, on acceptable terms, or at all.** We may need significant additional capital to execute our business plan, execute on future acquisitions and fund our proposed business operations. Additionally, our plans may change or the estimates of our operating expenses and working capital requirements could be inaccurate, we may pursue acquisitions of FDA-approved products, drug candidates, pharmacies 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 may result in the depletion of capital resources more rapidly than anticipated and could require us to seek additional financing earlier than we expect to support our operations. We may seek to obtain additional capital through equity or debt financings, funding from corporate partnerships or licensing arrangements, sales of assets or other financing transactions. If we issue additional equity or convertible debt securities to raise 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 and licensing arrangements or sales of assets, we may have to relinquish potentially valuable rights to our drug candidates or proprietary technologies, 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 those loans 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 options, convertible notes and warrants, which would adversely impact our financial results. **We have in the past participated and may in the future participate in strategic transactions that could impact our liquidity, increase our expenses and distract our management.** **** From time to time, we consider engaging in strategic transactions, such as out-licensing or in-licensing of compounds, drug candidates, drug products or technologies, acquisitions of companies, and asset purchases. We may also consider a variety of different business arrangements in the future, including strategic partnerships, joint ventures, spin-offs, carve-outs, restructurings, divestitures, business combinations and investments. In addition, another entity may pursue us or certain of our assets or aspects of our operations as an acquisition target. Any such transactions may require us to incur expenses specific to the transaction and not incident to our operations, may increase our near- and long-term expenditures, may pose significant integration challenges, may require us to hire or otherwise engage personnel with additional expertise, or may result in our selling or licensing of our assets or technologies under terms that may not prove profitable, any of which could harm our operations and financial results. Such transactions may also entail numerous other operational and financial risks, including, among others, exposure to unknown liabilities, disruption of our business and diversion of our managements time and attention in order to develop acquired products, drug candidates, technologies or businesses. As part of our efforts to complete any significant transaction, we would need to expend significant resources to conduct business, regulatory, legal and financial due diligence, with the goal of identifying and evaluating material risks involved in the transaction. We may be unsuccessful in ascertaining or evaluating all the risks and, as a result, we may not realize the expected benefits of the transaction, whether due to unidentified risks, integration difficulties, regulatory setbacks or other events. We may incur material liabilities for the past activities of any businesses we partner with or acquire. If any of these events occur, we could be subject to significant costs and damage to our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition. | 21 | | **If we are unable to establish, train and maintain an effective sales and marketing infrastructure, we will not be able to commercialize our drug products and candidates successfully.** We have built an internal sales and marketing infrastructure to implement our business plan by developing internal sales teams and education campaigns to market our drug products. We will need to expend significant resources to further establish and grow this internal infrastructure and properly train sales personnel with respect to regulatory compliance matters. We may also choose to engage or enter into other arrangements with third parties to provide sales and marketing services for us in place of or to supplement our internal commercialization infrastructure. We may not be able to secure sales personnel or relationships with third-party sales organizations that are adequate in number or expertise to successfully market and sell our proprietary formulations, drug products and pharmacy services. Further, any third-party organizations we may seek to partner with or engage may not be able to provide sales and marketing services in accordance with our expectations and standards, may be more expensive than we can afford or may not be available on otherwise acceptable terms or at all. If we are unable to establish and maintain compliant and adequate sales and marketing capabilities, through our own internal infrastructure or third-party services or other arrangements, we may be unable to sell our formulations, drug products or services or generate meaningful revenues. **We depend upon consultants, outside contractors and other third-party service providers for key aspects of our business.** We are substantially dependent on consultants and other outside contractors and service providers for key aspects of our business. For instance, we rely upon pharmacist, physician and research consultants and advisors to provide us with significant assistance in the evaluation of product development opportunities, and we have engaged or supported, and expect to continue to engage or support, consultants, advisors, contract manufacturers, clinical research organizations (CROs), and others to design, conduct, analyze and interpret the results of any clinical or non-clinical trials or other studies in connection with the research and development of our products. If any of our consultants or other service providers terminates its engagement with us, or if we are unable to engage highly qualified replacements as needed on commercially reasonable terms, we may be unable to successfully execute our business plan. We must effectively manage these third-party service providers to ensure that they successfully carry out their contractual obligations and meet expected deadlines. However, these third parties often engage in other business activities and may not devote sufficient time and attention to our activities, and we may have only limited contractual rights in connection with the conduct of the activities we have engaged the service providers to perform. If we are unable to effectively manage our outsourced activities or if the quality, timeliness or accuracy of the services provided by third-party service providers is compromised for any reason, our development activities may be extended, delayed or terminated, and we may not be able to commercialize our formulations or advance our business. **If any of our products, compounded formulations, or product candidates cause, or are alleged to have caused, patient injury or death, or are subject to a recall or other corrective action, we could face significant liabilities and reputational harm** Our business depends on the safety, quality, and performance of our products and services, as well as the perceptions of physicians, patients, regulators, and other stakeholders. We market and sell FDA-approved branded pharmaceutical products, we provide compounded formulations through our pharmacy operations, and we are developing additional product candidates. Any actual or perceived safety, quality, labeling, manufacturing, storage, distribution, or use-related issue involving any of our products, compounded formulations, or product candidatesincluding contamination, sterility failures, defects, adverse events, medication errors, misuse, off-label use, inadequate warnings, or quality concerns related to raw materials or componentscould result in negative publicity, product complaints, regulatory scrutiny, loss of customer confidence, reduced demand, and harm to our reputation. In addition, we may be subject to voluntary or involuntary recalls, market withdrawals, field corrections, Dear Healthcare Provider letters, product discontinuations, or other corrective actions, whether initiated by us, required by the FDA, state boards of pharmacy, or other regulators, or prompted by third parties in our supply chain. Such events could also lead to inspections, warning letters, enforcement actions, increased oversight, remediation costs, and, with respect to our pharmacy operations, the suspension, restriction, non-renewal, or loss of pharmacy licenses or registrations in one or more jurisdictions. Even if a safety or quality event ultimately is determined to be unrelated to our products or results from a false positive, isolated incident, or a third partys actions, the resulting reputational and operational impacts could be significant. If any of these events occur, we could incur substantial costs, including product and professional liability claims, litigation and settlement expenses, regulatory penalties, remediation and recall costs, increased insurance costs (or reduced availability of insurance), and lost revenue due to reduced prescribing, reduced utilization, supply disruption, or delays in development and commercialization. Any such outcomes could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. | 22 | | **We carry product and professional liability insurance, which may be inadequate.** Although we have secured product and professional liability insurance for our products, pharmacy operations and the marketing and sale of our formulations, our current or future insurance coverage may prove insufficient to cover any liability claims brought against us. Because of the increasing costs of insurance coverage, we may not be able to maintain insurance coverage at a reasonable cost or at a level adequate to satisfy liabilities that may arise. **Business disruptions could seriously harm our future revenue and financial condition and increase our costs and expenses.** **** Our operations, and those of CROs, contractors and consultants, could be subject to power shortages, telecommunications failures, wildfires, water shortages, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, typhoons, fires, extreme weather conditions, public health crises, and other natural or man-made disasters or business interruptions for which we are predominantly self-insured. The occurrence of any of these business disruptions could seriously harm our operations and financial condition and increase our costs and expenses. Our ability to obtain clinical supplies of our product candidates could be disrupted if the operations of our contract manufacturers or the contract manufacturers of our development partners are affected by a man-made or natural disaster or other business interruption. **Our compounding operations and our broader pharmaceutical business are subject to significant regulatory, quality, and commercial risks, and we may not achieve our objectives for these operations.** Our operations are subject to extensive federal and state regulation and oversight. This includes licensure and operational requirements applicable to our pharmacy and compounding activities, and FDA and other regulatory requirements applicable to the development, manufacture, labeling, promotion, and distribution of our FDA-approved branded products and product candidates. Failure to obtain, maintain, renew, or comply with required licenses, registrations, approvals, permits, or quality standards, or changes in applicable laws, regulations, guidance, or enforcement priorities, could restrict or delay our ability to operate in one or more jurisdictions, delay development or commercialization activities, increase compliance and remediation costs, or result in warnings, inspections, product seizures, recalls, injunctions, civil or criminal penalties, or other enforcement actions. Compounded formulations are not FDA-approved drug products and may face limited acceptance, reimbursement constraints, and competition from FDA-approved alternatives. Negative publicity or regulatory activity involving compounding pharmacies (whether or not involving us) could also reduce demand for compounded products. We have previously received FDA regulatory observations and communications relating to our compounding operations, including with respect to our 503B outsourcing facility and certain pharmacy operations, and we continue to invest in compliance and quality initiatives. See *We have been in discussions with the FDA regarding past inspections of our 503B facility, and to the extent we are unable to demonstrate compliance with cGMPs and other required regulations, the government could pursue enforcement actions, the effects of which could be costly to us and could result in adverse consequences to our business*. Our FDA-approved branded products and product candidates are subject to significant regulatory and commercial risks, including risks related to manufacturing quality and supply chain reliability, labeling and promotional restrictions, competitive dynamics (including from generics, biosimilars, and alternative therapies), and pricing and reimbursement pressures. We may incur significant costs to maintain and enhance quality systems, satisfy regulatory requirements, and respond to inspections or other regulatory inquiries, and these efforts may divert resources from other parts of our business and may not produce the intended benefits. If physicians, patients, or third-party payors are unwilling to prescribe, use, or reimburse our compounded formulations, branded products, or future product candidates, or if our operations are constrained by regulatory actions, licensure limitations, or increased compliance burdens, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. | 23 | | **A breakdown of our information technology systems, or a cyberattack or information security breach could significantly compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our information technology systems, network-connected control systems and/or our data, interrupt the operation of our business, affect our reputation and result in remediation costs, litigation, or regulatory inquiries.** To achieve our business objectives, we rely on sophisticated information technology systems, including hardware, software, technology infrastructure, online sites and networks for both internal and external operations, mobile applications, cloud services and network-connected control systems, some of which are managed, hosted, provided or serviced by third parties. Internal or external events that compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our systems and data may significantly interrupt the operation of our business, result in significant costs and/or adversely affect our reputation. Our information technology systems are highly integrated into our business, including our customer service infrastructure, R&D efforts, clinical and commercial manufacturing processes and product sales and distribution processes. Further, as the large part of our employees work remotely for some portion of their jobs, our reliance on our third-party information technology systems has increased substantially and is expected to continue to increase. Remote and hybrid working arrangements can increase cybersecurity risks due to the challenges associated with managing remote computing assets and security vulnerabilities that are present in many non-corporate and home networks. The complexity and interconnected nature of software, hardware and our systems make them vulnerable to breakdown or other service interruptions, and to software errors or defects, misconfiguration and other security vulnerabilities. Upgrades or changes to our systems or the software that we use have resulted and we expect, in the future, will result in the introduction of new cybersecurity vulnerabilities and risks. Our systems are also subject to frequent perimeter network reconnaissance and scanning, phishing and other cyberattacks. As the cyber-threat landscape evolves, these attacks are growing in frequency, sophistication, and intensity, and are becoming increasingly difficult to detect and increasingly sophisticated in using techniques and toolsincluding artificial intelligencethat circumvent security controls, evade detection and remove forensic evidence. Such attacks could include the use of harmful and virulent malware, including ransomware or other denials of service, which can be deployed through various means, including the software supply chain, e-mail, malicious websites and/or the use of social engineering/phishing. We have experienced attacks against our network, although none that have had a material adverse impact to our business. In November 2024, we became aware of a cybersecurity incident that involved unauthorized access of an employees email account. Through this unauthorized access the threat actor was able to fraudulently divert Company funds to its bank account. We detected the incident in a timeframe management believes minimized the financial, operation or reputational risk to the Company, and at no point was our ability to generate revenues disrupted. However, if future attacks occur, there is no assurance we will be able to detect the incident in a timely manner or at all. There can be no assurance that our efforts to guard against the wide and growing variety of potential attack techniques will be successful. Attacks such as those experienced by government entities (including those that approve and/or regulate our products) and other multi-national companies, including some of our peers, could leave us unable to utilize key business systems or access or protect important data, and could have a material adverse effect on our ability to operate our business, including developing, gaining regulatory approval for, manufacturing, selling and/or distributing our products. For example, in 2017, a pharmaceutical company experienced a cyberattack involving virulent malware that significantly disrupted its operations, including its research and sales operations and the production of some of its medicines and vaccines. As a result of the cyberattack, its orders and sales for certain products were negatively affected. In late 2020, SolarWinds Corporation, a leading provider of software for monitoring and managing information technology infrastructure, disclosed that it had suffered a cybersecurity incident whereby attackers had inserted malicious code into legitimate software updates for its products that were installed by myriad private and government customers, enabling the attackers to access a backdoor to such systems. In 2022, Okta, Inc., a provider of software that helps companies manage user authentication, disclosed that several hundred of its corporate customers were vulnerable to a security breach that allowed attackers to access Oktas internal network. Although this breach did not have a significant effect on our business, there can be no assurance that a similar future breach would not result in a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. | 24 | | Our systems contain and use a high volume of sensitive data, including intellectual property, trade secrets and other proprietary business information, financial information, regulatory information, strategic plans, sales trends and forecasts, litigation materials and/or personal identifiable information belonging to us, our staff, our patients, customers and/or other parties. In some cases, we utilize third-party service providers to collect, process, store, manage or transmit such data, which have increased our risk. Intentional or inadvertent data privacy or security breaches (including cyberattacks) resulting from attacks or lapses by employees, service providers (including providers of information technology-specific services), business partners, nation states (including groups associated with or supported by foreign intelligence agencies), organized crime organizations, hacktivists or others, create risks that our sensitive data may be exposed to unauthorized persons, our competitors or the public. System vulnerabilities and/or cybersecurity breaches experienced by our third-party service providers constitute a substantial share of the information security risks to our business. There can be no assurance that a cybersecurity incident would not result in a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. Further, the timeliness of our awareness of a cybersecurity incident affects our ability to respond to and work to mitigate the severity of such events. Cyberattackers are also increasingly exploiting vulnerabilities in commercially available software from shared or open-source code. We rely on third party commercial software that have had and may have such vulnerabilities, but as use of open-source code is frequently not disclosed, our ability to fully assess this risk to our systems is limited. There can be no assurances that a vulnerability in the software and services that we use would not result in a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. Domestic and global government regulators, our business partners, suppliers with whom we do business, companies that provide us or our partners with business services and companies we have acquired or may acquire face similar risks. Security breaches of their systems or service outages have adversely affected systems and could, in the future, affect our systems and security, leave us without access to important systems, products, raw materials, components, services or information, or expose our confidential data or sensitive personal information. An extended service outage affecting these or other vendors, particularly where such vendor is the single source from which we obtain the services, could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. For example, in February 2024, UnitedHealth Group announced that a suspected nation-state associated cybersecurity threat actor had gained access to some of the Change Healthcare (Change) information technology systems. Change is the largest clearinghouse for medical claims in the U.S. While Harrow was not directly impacted by this cybersecurity incident, it was reported that as a reaction to the cybersecurity incident, Change temporarily disconnected over 100 related payment systems and Change was unable to process medical claims through its primary platforms. This resulted in the delays to the revenue and cash collection cycle for several ASCs and physician offices, putting a strain on their cash resources. While temporary, the cash constraints for these ASCs and physician offices, we believe, impacted sales of some of our products, such as IHEEZO, during this disrupted period of time. In addition, we distribute our products in the U.S. primarily through three pharmaceutical wholesalers, and a security breach that impairs the distribution operations of our wholesalers could significantly impair our ability to deliver our products to healthcare providers and patients. There can be no assurance that our cybersecurity risk management program and processes, including our policies, controls, or procedures, will be effective in protecting our information technology systems and sensitive data. We will continue to experience varying degrees of cyberattacks and other incidents in the future. Even though we continue to invest in the monitoring, protection and resilience of our critical and/or sensitive data and systems, there can be no assurances that our efforts will detect, prevent or fully recover systems or data from all breakdowns, service interruptions, attacks and/or breaches of our systems that could adversely affect our business and operations and/or result in the loss or exposure of critical, proprietary, private, confidential or otherwise sensitive data, which could result in material financial, legal business or reputational harm to us or negatively affect our stock price. While we maintain cyber-liability insurance, our insurance is not sufficient to cover us against all losses that could potentially result from a service interruption, breach of our systems or loss of our critical or sensitive data. We are also subject to various laws and regulations globally regarding privacy and data protection, including laws and regulations relating to the collection, storage, handling, use, disclosure, transfer and security of personal data. The legislative and regulatory environment regarding privacy and data protection is continuously evolving and developing and the subject of significant attention globally. For example, we are subject to the CCPA, which became effective in January 2020, which can result in substantial penalties for noncompliance. The CCPA was amended in late 2020, to create the California Privacy Rights Act to create opt-in requirements for the use of sensitive personal data and the formation of a new dedicated agency for the enforcement of the law, the California Privacy Protection Agency. Similar consumer privacy laws went into effect in Virginia, Colorado, Utah, Connecticut and Florida in 2023. Consumer privacy laws were also passed in 11 other states, with the earliest effective dates later this year, and proposed in three additional states. Failure to comply with these current and future laws could result in significant penalties and reputational harm and could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. | 25 | | **Our current and future use of artificial intelligence (AI), including by third-party vendors we rely on, may create new operational, regulatory, legal, and reputational risks, and may adversely affect our business.** **** We and certain third parties that support our business may use artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, including generative AI tools, to automate or enhance workflows, analyze data, and support decision-making across functions. These technologies are rapidly evolving and can be difficult to evaluate and control, and they may produce inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, or biased outputs that are not readily detectable. If AI-supported processes, analyses, or content are flawed or used inappropriately, we could experience operational inefficiencies, delays, or other adverse impacts. Because we operate in highly regulated markets, the use of AI may heighten our compliance and liability risks. For example, AI-assisted materials used in commercial, medical, quality, complaint handling, or safety-related activities could contain errors or omit context, and inadequate governance, documentation, or human oversight could increase regulatory scrutiny, remediation costs, or reputational harm. In addition, reliance on third parties to develop, implement, or operate AI-enabled systems may reduce our visibility into how outputs are generated and how controls are applied. AI tools can also increase confidentiality, cybersecurity, privacy, and intellectual property risks. Use of third-party AI platforms by our employees or service providers may result in unintended disclosure, processing, or use of confidential information, proprietary know-how, or personal data, and may increase exposure to cyber threats, including social engineering. Further, laws, regulations, and enforcement priorities relating to AI are developing rapidly and may be inconsistent across jurisdictions, which could increase compliance costs, restrict certain uses, or require changes to our controls; conversely, if we do not adopt AI effectively relative to competitors, we may be disadvantaged in efficiency and speed. **Global macroeconomic conditions could adversely affect our business and results of operations.** Macroeconomic volatilityincluding changes in inflation, interest rates, credit availability, and broader financial market conditionsmay adversely affect our business. These conditions can reduce demand for healthcare services, increase the portion of costs borne by patients, and pressure third-party payors budgets, which may negatively affect utilization of and reimbursement for our products. Macroeconomic and geopolitical developments may also increase or destabilize our operating costs, including labor, freight, energy, and materials, and may contribute to supply chain disruption, vendor constraints, or counterparty financial distress. In addition, changes in trade policy and international conflicts may create further uncertainty and cost pressure. If these conditions persist or worsen, our sales, operating expenses, and results of operations could be adversely affected. **Risks Related to Government Regulations and Third-Party Policies** **Our business is significantly impacted by state and federal statutes and regulations.** The marketing and sale of our drug candidates, FDA-approved drugs and compounded formulations are subject to and must comply with extensive state and federal statutes and regulations governing those products and compounding pharmacies. These compounding statutes and regulations include, among other things, restrictions on compounding for office use or in advance of receiving a patient-specific prescription or, for outsourcing facilities, requirements regarding preparation, such as regular FDA inspections and cGMP requirements, prohibitions on compounding drugs that are essentially copies of FDA-approved drugs, limitations on the volume of compounded formulations that may be sold across state lines, and prohibitions on wholesaling or reselling. These and other restrictions on the activities of compounding pharmacies and outsourcing facilities may significantly limit the market available for compounded formulations, compared to the market available for FDA-approved drugs. | 26 | | Our pharmacy business is impacted by federal and state laws and regulations governing the following: the purchase, distribution, management, compounding, dispensing, reimbursement, marketing and labeling of prescription drugs and related services including: FDA and/or state regulation affecting the pharmacy and pharmaceutical industries, including state pharmacy licensure and registration or permit standards; rules and regulations issued pursuant to HIPAA and other state and federal laws related to the use, disclosure and transmission of health information; and state and federal controlled substance laws. Our failure to comply with any of these laws and regulations could severely limit or curtail our pharmacy operations, which would materially harm our business and prospects. Further, our business could be adversely affected by changes in these or any newly enacted laws and regulations, and federal and state agency interpretations of the statutes and regulations. Statutory or regulatory changes could require us to make changes to our business model and operations and/or could require us to incur significantly increased costs to comply with such regulations. On July 30, 2020, the FDA issued a notice for comments related to certain bulk drug substances to be removed from the 503B Bulks List (or Category 1 List). Included in this notice for comment were certain bulk drug substances which we currently use in some of our compounded products. In the event one or more of these bulk substances are ultimately removed from the Category 1 List, we intend to utilize commercially available versions of these substances or similar active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) as replacements of the bulk powders contained in our sterile products. In addition, nothing in the FDAs notice affects the dispensing of bulk powder-containing products from our 503A pharmacy. Nonetheless, if all or some of the bulk drug substances we use are removed from the 503B Bulks List, this may result in a disruption in our operations, revenues and cash flows. Federal and state compounding frameworksincluding evolving FDA policies regarding interstate distribution and information-sharingmay change and could impose additional compliance obligations or restrict aspects of our compounding operations, which could adversely affect our results of operations. **** **We have been in discussions with the FDA regarding past inspections of our 503B facility, and to the extent we are unable to demonstrate compliance with cGMPs and other required regulations, the government could pursue enforcement actions, the effects of which could be costly to us and could result in adverse consequences to our business.** We have received inspection observations, warning letters and other regulatory communications in the past from the FDA, and we continue to invest in quality systems, remediation activities, and compliance resources, including third-party support. If we are unable to maintain compliance, the FDA or other regulators could pursue enforcement actions, which may include additional warning letters, product seizures, recalls, restrictions on manufacturing or distribution, consent decrees, injunctions, civil or criminal penalties, or other measures. Any such actions could increase costs, disrupt operations, and negatively affect our reputation, results of operations, and financial condition. From March 2024 through April 2024, NJOF was inspected by the FDA (the 2024 Inspection), and the FDA issued a Form 483 with five observations. During the first quarter of 2025, we engaged in separate but related discussions with the federal government regarding the NJOF quality system and the 2024 Inspection. NJOF voluntarily recalled certain products and provided regular updates to the FDA regarding its remediation activities and other commitments, including Project Beagle (as discussed in Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Recent Developments.). The government has notified us that these discussions are now closed. In October 2025, ImprimisRx, had an in-person meeting with the FDA to further present and discuss its efforts to remediate certain deficiencies at NJOF. At this meeting the FDA ultimately decided to allow ImprimisRx to continue with its remediation efforts on a voluntary basis with ImprimisRx providing a commitment to ongoing communication regarding its remediation efforts with the FDA. Future regulatory actions could increase scrutiny and could create negative publicity on us as a company. As part of our commitment to actively work with regulators, at times, we have become aware of concerns related to certain formulations, and as a result, discontinued compounding certain drug formulations in an attempt to help mitigate potential regulatory risk. Physicians may be unwilling to prescribe or patients may be unwilling to use our compounded formulations for other reasons, including but not limited to, the following: legal prohibitions on our ability to discuss the efficacy or safety of our formulations with potential users to the extent applicable data is available; our pharmacy operations are primarily operating on a cash-pay basis and reimbursement may or may not be available from third-party payors, including the government Medicare and Medicaid programs; and certain formulations are not required to be prepared and are not presently being prepared in a manufacturing facility governed by cGMP requirements. These factors and any future regulatory action could continue to limit our production, and our ability to dispense and distribute our compounded products, which would negatively affect sales of our compounded products. | 27 | | **** **If we (or a partner facility) fail to comply with the Controlled Substances Act, FDCA, or similar state statutes and regulations, the pharmacy facilities could be required to cease operations or become subject to restrictions that could adversely affect our business.** Our pharmacy operations are subject to extensive federal and state laws and regulations. Many states require pharmacies that dispense pharmaceuticals into the state to be appropriately licensed or registered, and state controlled substance laws generally require registration and compliance with standards promulgated by state pharmacy and controlled substance authorities. These laws and regulations often address the qualifications of personnel, prescription fulfillment and inventory control practices, facility standards, recordkeeping, and related compliance obligations, and they subject pharmacies to oversight by state boards of pharmacy and other regulators that may impose corrective actions, enhanced oversight, or operational restrictions if a pharmacy is found not in compliance. While we maintain compliance and quality programs intended to support adherence to applicable requirements, if any of our pharmacy operations (or a partner facility on which we rely) fail to comply with applicable laws or regulations, the affected operations could be required to temporarily or permanently limit or cease dispensing or compounding activities, which could adversely affect our ability to provide compounded formulations and could materially harm our business. Noncompliance could also result in adverse actions by state boards of pharmacy or other regulators. In addition, FDA inspections and related enforcement under the FDCA, including with respect to the exemptions applicable to compounders under Sections 503A and 503B, could result in warning letters, injunctions, fines, loss of exemptions, or other enforcement actions, any of which could involve significant costs and could adversely affect our business. ImprimisRx was subject to an administrative action by the California State Board of Pharmacy relating to certain regulatory compliance matters and entered into a settlement to resolve that matter in November, 2025. As part of the settlement, effective February 1, 2026, ImprimisRx voluntarily surrendered its California nonresident 503B outsourcing facility license and California nonresident 503A compounding pharmacy license. The loss of these licenses restricts our ability to sell or dispense certain compounded products in California and has reduced revenues from that state. We believe that, based on our current sales concentration and geographic diversification, this loss is not material to our consolidated statement of operations. However, if additional states were to take similar actions, or if broader or longer-term restrictions were imposed, the cumulative effect could be material. **If we market any of our drug candidates in a manner that violates healthcare fraud and abuse laws, or if we violate government price reporting laws, we may be subject to civil or criminal penalties.** The FDA enforces laws and regulations which require that the promotion of pharmaceutical products be consistent with the approved prescribing information. While physicians may prescribe an approved product for a so-called off label use, it is unlawful for a pharmaceutical company to promote its products in a manner that is inconsistent with its approved label, and any company which engages in such conduct can subject that company to significant liability. Similarly, industry codes in the EU and other foreign jurisdictions prohibit companies from engaging in off-label promotion, and regulatory agencies in various countries enforce violations of the code with civil penalties. While we intend to ensure that our promotional materials are consistent with our label, regulatory agencies may disagree with our assessment and may issue untitled letters, warning letters or may institute other civil or criminal enforcement proceedings. In addition to FDA restrictions on marketing of pharmaceutical products, several other types of state and federal healthcare fraud and abuse laws have been applied in recent years to restrict certain marketing practices in the pharmaceutical industry. These laws include the U.S. Anti-Kickback Statute, U.S. False Claims Act and similar state laws. Because of the breadth of these laws and the narrowness of the safe harbors, it is possible that some of our business activities could be subject to challenge under one or more of these laws. | 28 | | **Our sales depend on coverage and reimbursement from government and commercial third-party payors, and pricing and reimbursement pressures have affected, and are likely to continue to affect, our profitability.** Sales of our products depend on the availability and extent of coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors, including government healthcare programs and private insurance plans. Payors continue to implement measures to manage utilization and contain costs, including step edits, prior authorization, formulary restrictions, increased patient cost sharing, and reimbursement rate reductions. These actions may reduce the number of patients for whom our products are reimbursed, delay or restrict patient access, and limit our ability to increase prices or maintain pricing levels, any of which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability. In the U.S., legislative and regulatory actions continue to focus on reducing drug costs, including measures affecting Medicare reimbursement and manufacturer financial obligations. In addition, policymakers and CMS have advanced proposals that would reference prices in other economically comparable countries in determining Medicare beneficiary cost-sharing and/or additional manufacturer rebate obligations (sometimes described as most-favored-nation or international reference pricing policies). CMS has proposed mandatory demonstration modelsGLOBE (Medicare Part B) and GUARD (Medicare Part D)that would assess additional manufacturer rebates based on international benchmarks for certain therapeutic categories that include ophthalmology/ophthalmic agents. Because certain of our ophthalmic products are reimbursed under Medicare Part B, and we may develop or acquire additional products reimbursed by government programs, these and similar initiatives could be particularly relevant to our business. Moreover, because we do not own global rights to many of the products we market in the U.S. and generally do not control commercialization or pricing outside the U.S. for those products, we may have limited or no ability to affect non-U.S. pricing that could be used as a benchmark under most-favored-nation or international reference pricing initiatives, which could increase our exposure to such policies. We cannot predict the scope, timing, or ultimate impact of these or other policy changes. However, to the extent payor actions or governmental measures decrease or modify coverage or reimbursement for our products, increase rebates, discounts, or other price concessions, shift additional costs to manufacturers, or otherwise limit utilization, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. **Changing U.S. federal coverage and reimbursement policies and practices have affected and are likely to continue to affect access to, pricing of and sales of our products.** A substantial portion of our branded product portfolio relies on reimbursement from federal government healthcare programs and commercial insurance plans regulated by federal and state governments. Our business has been and will continue to be affected by legislative actions changing U.S. federal reimbursement policy. The IRAs drug pricing controls and Medicare redesign is likely to have a material adverse effect on our sales (particularly for our branded products that are more substantially reliant on Medicare reimbursement), our business and our results of operations. However, as the degree of impact from this legislation on our business depends on a number of implementation decisions, the extent of the IRAs impact on our sales and, in turn, our business remains unclear. | 29 | | **Changing reimbursement and pricing actions in various states have negatively affected and may continue to negatively affect access to and have affected and may continue to affect sales of our products.** At the state level, government actions or ballot initiatives can also affect how our branded products are covered and reimbursed and/or create additional pressure on our pricing decisions. Existing and proposed state pricing laws have added complexity to the pricing of drugs and may already be affecting industry pricing decisions. A number of states have adopted, and many other states are considering, drug importation programs or other pricing actions, including proposals designed to require biopharmaceutical manufacturers to report to the state proprietary pricing information or provide advance notice of certain price increases. For example, California law requires biopharmaceutical manufacturers to notify health insurers and government health plans at least 60 days before scheduled prescription drug price increases that exceed certain thresholds. Similar laws exist in Oregon and Washington. Additional proposals directed at Medicaid seek to penalize manufacturers for pricing drugs above a certain threshold or limit spending on biopharmaceutical products. States are also seeking to change the way they pay for drugs for patients covered by state programs. New York has established a Medicaid drug spending cap, and Massachusetts implemented a new review and supplemental rebate negotiation process. Six states (Colorado, Maine, New Hampshire, Maryland, Oregon and Washington) have enacted laws that establish Prescription Drug Affordability Boards (PDABs) to study drug prices and identify drugs that pose affordability challenges, and in three states (Colorado, Maryland and Washington) include authority for the state PDABs to set upper payment limits on certain drugs in state regulated plans. Other states may consider implementing similar policies and laws. Additionally, Colorado, Florida, Maine, New Hampshire, New Mexico and Vermont have enacted laws, and several other states have proposed bills, to implement importation of drugs from Canada. The FDA has met with representatives from Colorado, Florida, Maine and New Mexico to discuss those states proposed importation programs, and the FDA may be working towards approving such plans. Other states could adopt similar approaches or could pursue different policy changes in a continuing effort to reduce their costs. Ultimately, as with U.S. federal government actions, existing or future state government actions or ballot initiatives may also have a material adverse effect on our product sales, business and results of operations. **U.S. commercial payor actions have affected and may continue to affect access to and sales of our products** Payors, including healthcare insurers, pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), integrated healthcare delivery systems (vertically-integrated organizations built from consolidations of healthcare insurers and PBMs) and group purchasing organizations, increasingly seek ways to reduce their costs. With increasing frequency, payors are adopting benefit plan changes that shift a greater proportion of drug costs to patients. Such measures include more limited benefit plan designs, high deductible plans, higher patient co-pay or coinsurance obligations and more significant limitations on patients use of manufacturer commercial co-pay assistance programs. Further, government regulation of payors may affect these trends. For example, CMS finalized a policy for plan years starting on or after January 1, 2021 that has caused commercial payors to more widely adopt co-pay accumulator adjustment programs. Payors, including PBMs, have sought, and continue to seek, price discounts or rebates in connection with the placement of our branded products on their formularies or those they manage, and to also impose restrictions on access to or usage of our branded products (such as step therapy), require that patients receive the payors prior authorization before covering the product, and/or chosen to exclude certain indications for which our products are approved. In an effort to reduce barriers to access, we may reduce the net price of some of our branded products by providing greater discounts and rebates to payors (including PBMs that administer Medicare Part D prescription drug plans), and we may introduce a set of new National Drug Codes to make our branded products available at a lower list price. However, affordability of patient out-of-pocket co-pay cost has limited and may continue to limit patient use. Further, despite these net and list price reductions, some payors may restrict, patient access and may seek further discounts or rebates or take other actions, such as changing formulary coverage for some or all of our branded products. These factors have limited, and may continue to limit, patient affordability and use, negatively affecting sales of our branded products. Further, significant consolidation in the health insurance industry has resulted in a few large insurers and PBMs, which places greater pressure on pricing and usage negotiations with biopharmaceutical manufacturers, significantly increasing discount and rebate requirements and limiting patient access and usage. For example, according to a 2024 press release from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the six largest PBMs manage nearly 95% of prescriptions filled in the United States. This high degree of consolidation among insurers and PBMs and other payors, including through integrated healthcare delivery systems and/or with specialty or mail-order pharmacies and pharmacy retailers, has increased the negotiating leverage such entities have over us and other biopharmaceutical manufacturers and has resulted in greater price discounts, rebates and service fees realized by those payors from our business. CVS, Express Scripts and United Health Group (among the top five integrated health plans and PBMs), each have Rebate Management Organizations that further increase their leverage to negotiate deeper discounts. Ultimately, additional discounts, rebates, fees, coverage changes, plan changes, restrictions or exclusions imposed by these commercial payors could have a material adverse effect on our product sales, business and results of operations. Policy reforms advanced by Congress or the others in the federal administration that refine the role of PBMs in the U.S. marketplace could have downstream implications or consequences for our business and how we interact with these entities. | 30 | | **Guidelines and recommendations published by various organizations can reduce the use of our branded products.** Government agencies promulgate regulations and guidelines directly applicable to us and to our products. Professional societies, practice management groups, insurance carriers, physicians groups, private health and science foundations and organizations involved in various diseases also publish guidelines and recommendations to healthcare providers, administrators and payors, as well as patient communities. Recommendations by government agencies or other groups and organizations may relate to such matters as usage, dosage, route of administration and use of related therapies. In addition, a growing number of organizations are providing assessments of the value and pricing of biopharmaceutical products, and even organizations whose guidelines have historically been focused on clinical matters have begun to incorporate analyses of the cost effectiveness of various treatments into their treatment guidelines and recommendations. Value assessments may come from private organizations that publish their findings and offer recommendations relating to the products reimbursement by government and private payors. Some companies and payors have announced pricing and payment decisions based in part on the assessments of private organizations. In addition, government health technology assessment organizations in many countries make reimbursement recommendations to payors in their jurisdictions based on the clinical effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and service effects of new, emerging and existing medicines and treatments. Such health technology assessment organizations have recommended, and may in the future recommend, reimbursement for certain of our products for a narrower indication than was approved by applicable regulatory agencies or may recommend against reimbursement entirely. See *Our sales depend on coverage and reimbursement from government and commercial third-party payors, and pricing and reimbursement pressures have affected, and are likely to continue to affect, our profitability.*Such recommendations or guidelines may affect our reputation, and any recommendations or guidelines that result in decreased use, dosage or reimbursement of our products could have a material adverse effect on our product sales, business and results of operations. In addition, the perception by the investment community or stockholders that such recommendations or guidelines will result in decreased use and dosage of our products could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. **Change in U.S. trade policy, including tariffs or other import restrictions, could increase our costs, disrupt our supply chain, and adversely affect our business.** U.S. trade policy is subject to change and could include the imposition of new or increased tariffs, duties, quotas, sanctions, or other restrictions on finished pharmaceuticals, APIs, excipients, packaging components, equipment, or other inputs used in our products. Although a significant portion of our products (compounded and branded) are manufactured in the United States, we and our third-party manufacturers and suppliers rely on global supply chains for certain finished pharmaceuticals APIs, materials, components, and services. If tariffs or other trade restrictions are enacted or expanded, we could experience higher input and logistics costs, delays at ports of entry, reduced availability of materials or components, supplier disruptions, and increased working-capital requirements, including the need to build additional inventory or make advance payments of duties. In addition, changes in trade policy may prompt retaliatory actions by foreign governments or cause suppliers to reallocate capacity, which could further constrain supply or increase costs. We may seek to mitigate these risks through supply chain planning and other measures, including identifying alternative suppliers, qualifying additional sources, modifying sourcing strategies, and adjusting inventory levels. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful, timely, or sufficient to offset increased costs or disruptions. Any sustained increase in costs or disruption in our supply chain could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. **** | 31 | | **** **Risks Related to Competition** **There are many competitive risks related to marketing and selling our proprietary formulations and operating our compounding pharmacy business.** The pharmaceutical and pharmacy industries are highly competitive. We compete against branded drug companies, generic drug companies, outsourcing facilities and other compounding pharmacies. We are significantly smaller than some of our competitors. Currently we lack some of the financial and other resources needed to develop, produce, distribute and market our proprietary formulations at a level to capture a significant market share in these sectors. The drug products available through branded and generic drug companies with which our formulations compete have been approved for marketing and sale by the FDA and are required to be manufactured in facilities compliant with cGMP standards. Although we prepare our compounded formulations in accordance with the standards provided by USP 795 and USP 797 and applicable state and federal law, our proprietary compounded formulations are not required to be, and have not been, approved for marketing and sale by the FDA. As a result, some physicians may be unwilling to prescribe, and some patients may be unwilling to use, our formulations. Additionally, under federal and state laws applicable to our current compounding pharmacy operations, we are not permitted to prepare significant amounts of a specific formulation in advance of a prescription, compound quantities for office use or utilize a wholesaler for distribution of our formulations; instead, our compounded formulations must be prepared and dispensed in connection with a physician prescription for an individually identified patient. Pharmaceutical companies, on the other hand, are able to sell their FDA-approved products to large pharmaceutical wholesalers, which can in turn sell to and supply hospitals and retail pharmacies. Even if we are successful in registering certain of our facilities as outsourcing facilities, our business may not be scalable on the scope available to our competitors that produce FDA-approved drugs, which may limit our potential for profitable operations. These facets of our operations may subject our business to limitations our competitors with FDA-approved drugs may not face. **Our future success depends in large part on our ability to maintain a competitive position with respect to biotechnology and related pharmaceutical technologies**. Biotechnology and related pharmaceutical technologies have undergone and continue to be subject to rapid and significant change. Our future success will depend in large part on our ability to maintain a competitive position with respect to these technologies. Products developed by our competitors, including FDA-approved drugs and compounded formulations created by other pharmacies, could render our products and technologies obsolete or unable to compete. Any products that we develop may become obsolete before we recover expenses incurred in their development, which may require us to raise additional funds that may or may not be available. The competitive environment requires an ongoing, extensive search for medical and technological innovations and the ability to develop and market these innovations effectively, and we may not be competitive with respect to these factors. Other competitive factors include the safety and efficacy of a product, the size of the market for a product, the timing of market entry relative to competitive products, the availability of alternative compounded formulations or approved drugs, the price of a product relative to alternative products, the availability of third-party reimbursement, the success of sales and marketing efforts, brand recognition and the availability of scientific and technical information about a product. Although we believe we are positioned to compete favorably with respect to many of these factors, if our proprietary formulations are unable to compete with the products of our competitors, we may never gain market share or achieve sustained profitability. **Concentration of sales at certain of our wholesaler distributors and consolidation of private payors may negatively affect our business.** Certain of our distributors, customers and payors have substantial purchasing leverage, due to the volume of our products they purchase or the number of patient lives for which they provide coverage. The substantial majority of our U.S. branded product sales are made through four pharmaceutical product wholesaler distributors: McKesson Corporation, Cencora Inc., Western Wellness and Cardinal Health, Inc. These distributors, in turn, sell our products to their customers, which include physicians or their clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, hospitals and pharmacies. Similarly, as discussed above, there has been significant consolidation in the health insurance industry, including that a small number of PBMs now oversee a substantial percentage of total covered lives in the U.S. See *Our sales depend on coverage and reimbursement from government and commercial third-party payors, and pricing and reimbursement pressures have affected, and are likely to continue to affect, our profitability.*The three largest PBMs in the U.S. are now part of major health insurance providers. The growing concentration of purchasing and negotiating power by these entities has, and may continue to, put pressure on our pricing due to their ability to extract price discounts on our branded products, fees for other services or rebates, negatively affecting our bargaining position, sales and/or profit margins. In addition, decisions by these entities to purchase or cover less or none of our branded products in favor of competing products could have a material adverse effect on our branded product sales, business and results of operations due to their purchasing volume. Further, if one of our significant wholesale distributors encounters financial or other difficulties and becomes unable or unwilling to pay us all amounts that such distributor owes us on a timely basis, or at all, it could negatively affect our business and results of operations. In addition, if one of our significant wholesale distributors becomes insolvent or otherwise unable to continue its commercial relationship with us in its present form, it could significantly disrupt our business and adversely affect our product sales, our business and results of operations unless suitable alternatives are timely found or lost sales are absorbed by another distributor. | 32 | | **If we are unable to protect our proprietary rights, we may not be able to prevent others from using our intellectual property, which may reduce the competitiveness and value of the related assets.** Our success will depend in part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent protection for our formulations and technologies and to prevent third parties from infringing upon our proprietary rights. We must also operate without infringing upon patents and proprietary rights of others, including by obtaining appropriate licenses to patents or other proprietary rights held by third parties, if necessary. The primary means by which we will be able to protect our formulations and technologies from unauthorized use by third parties is to obtain valid and enforceable patents that cover them. However, the applications we have filed or may file in the future may never yield patents that protect our inventions and intellectual property assets. Failure to obtain patents that sufficiently cover our formulations and technologies would limit our protection against other compounding pharmacies and outsourcing facilities, generic drug manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies and other parties who may seek to copy our products, produce products substantially similar to ours or use technologies substantially similar to those we own. We have made, and expect to continue to make, significant investments in certain of our proprietary formulations prior to the grant of any patents covering these formulations, and we may not receive a sufficient return on these investments if patent coverage or other appropriate intellectual property protection is not obtained and their competitiveness and value decreases. The patent and intellectual property positions of pharmacies and pharmaceutical companies, including ours, are uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions. There is no guarantee that we have developed or obtained or will in the future develop or obtain the rights to products or processes that are patentable, that patents will issue from any pending applications or that claims allowed will be sufficient to protect the technology we have developed or may in the future develop or to which we have acquired or may in the future acquire development rights. In addition, we cannot be certain that patents issued to us will not be challenged, invalidated, infringed or circumvented, including by our competitors, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide competitive advantages to us. In certain instances, we have acquired products that are patented and have been subject to prior litigation challenging the validity of certain patents related to those products. In some situations, the litigation resulted in settlement agreements that have allowed generic manufacturers to license the patent rights related to certain products and allowing the generic manufacturer to enter the market prior to patent expiration associated with the branded product. We also rely on unpatented trade secrets and know-how and continuing technological innovation in order to develop our products, formulations, which we seek to protect, in part, by confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, collaborators and others, including certain service providers. We also have invention or patent assignment agreements with our current employees and certain consultants. Nonetheless, our employees and consultants may breach these agreements, and we may not have adequate remedies for the breach. Our trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently discovered by competitors or could be developed by a person not bound by an invention assignment agreement with us, in which case we may have no rights to use the applicable invention. **We may face additional competition outside of the U.S. as a result of a lack of patent coverage in some territories and differences in patent prosecution and enforcement laws in foreign counties.** Filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patents on our proprietary formulations throughout the world is extremely expensive. We do not currently have patent protection outside of the U.S. that covers any of our proprietary formulations or other assets that we are currently pursuing. Competitors may use our technologies to develop their own products in jurisdictions where we have not obtained patent protection. Even if the international patent applications we have filed or may in the future file are issued or approved, it is likely that the scope of protection provided by such patents would be different from, and possibly less than, the scope provided by corresponding U.S. patents. As a result, patent rights we are able to obtain may not be sufficient to prevent generic competition. Further, the extent of our international market opportunity may be dependent upon the enforcement of patent rights in various other countries. A number of countries in which we could file patent applications have a history of weak enforcement and/or compulsory licensing of intellectual property rights. Moreover, the legal systems of certain countries, particularly certain developing countries, do not favor the aggressive enforcement of patents and other intellectual property protection, particularly those relating to biotechnology and/or pharmaceuticals, which would make it difficult for us to stop a third party from infringing any of our intellectual property rights. Moreover, attempting to enforce our patent rights in foreign jurisdictions could result in substantial costs and divert our efforts and attention from other aspects of our business. | 33 | | **Our products, drug candidates and compounded formulations and technologies could potentially conflict with the rights of others.** The preparation or sale of our products, drug candidates and compounded formulations and use of our technologies may infringe on the patent or other intellectual property rights of others. If our products infringe or conflict with the patent or other intellectual property rights of others, third parties could bring legal actions against us claiming damages and seeking to enjoin our manufacturing and marketing of our affected products. Patent litigation is costly and time consuming and may divert managements attention and our resources. We may not have sufficient resources to bring any actions to a successful conclusion. If we are not successful in defending against these legal actions should they arise, we may be subject to monetary liability or be forced to alter our products, cease some or all of our operations relating to the affected products, or seek to obtain a license in order to continue manufacturing and marketing the affected products, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. **We are dependent on our CEO, Mark L. Baum and President and CFO, Andrew R. Boll, for the continued growth and development of our Company.** Our CEO, Mark L. Baum and our President and CFO, Andrew R. Boll, have played a primary role in the founding of our business along with creating and developing our current business model. We are highly dependent on these executives for the implementation of our business plan and the future development of our assets and our business, and the loss of their services and leadership could materially adversely impact our Company. **If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel and consultants, we may be unable to maintain or expand our business.** We have been focusing on building our management, pharmacy, research and development, sales and marketing and other personnel to pursue our current business model. To achieve our planned growth, we may have significant difficulty attracting and retaining necessary employees. Because of the specialized nature of our business, our ability to develop products and to compete will remain highly dependent upon our ability to attract and retain qualified pharmacy, scientific, technical and commercial employees and consultants. There is intense competition to hire qualified personnel in our industry, and we may be unable to continue to attract and retain the qualified personnel necessary, particularly since our headquarters location is not near the primary centers of biopharmaceutical employment, for the development of our business. The loss of key employees or consultants or the failure to recruit or engage new employees and consultants could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, any staffing interruptions resulting from geopolitical actions, including war and terrorism, adverse public health developments, or natural disasters including earthquakes, typhoons, floods and fires, could have a material adverse effect on our business. **Risks Related to Product Development, Regulatory Approval, Manufacturing and Commercialization** **If we seek FDA approval to market and sell any of our drug candidates we may be unable to demonstrate the necessary safety and efficacy to obtain such FDA approval.** In recent years, we have sought, and in the future, we, alone or with project partners, intend to seek, FDA regulatory approval to market and sell one or more of our assets as an FDA-approved drug. Obtaining FDA approval to market and sell pharmaceutical products is costly, time-consuming, uncertain and subject to unanticipated delays. The FDA or other regulatory agencies may not approve a drug candidate on a timely basis or at all. Before we obtain FDA approval for the sale of any potential drug candidates, we will be required to demonstrate through pre-clinical studies and clinical trials that it is safe and effective for each intended use, which we may not be able to do. A failure to demonstrate safety and efficacy of a drug candidate to the FDAs satisfaction would result in our failure to obtain FDA approval. Moreover, even if the FDA were to grant regulatory approval of a drug candidate, the approval may be limited to specific therapeutic areas or limited as to its distribution, which could reduce revenue potential, and we will be subject to extensive and costly post-approval requirements and oversight with respect to commercialization of the drug candidate. | 34 | | **Even if we receive regulatory approval for any of our drug candidates, we may not be able to successfully commercialize the product and the revenue that we generate from its sales, if any, may be limited.** If approved for marketing, the commercial success of our drug candidates will depend upon each products acceptance by the medical community, including physicians, patients and health care payors. The degree of market acceptance for any of our drug candidates will depend on a number of factors, including: | | | demonstration of clinical safety and efficacy; | | | | | | | | | | relative convenience, dosing burden and ease of administration; | | | | | | | | | | the prevalence and severity of any adverse effects; | | | | | | | | | | the willingness of physicians to prescribe our drug candidates, and the target patient population to try new therapies; | | | | | | | | | | efficacy of our drug candidates compared to competing products; | | | | | | | | | | the introduction of any new products that may in the future become available targeting indications for which our drug candidates may be approved; | | | | | | | | | | new procedures or therapies that may reduce the incidences of any of the indications in which our drug candidates may show utility; | | | | | | | | | | pricing and cost-effectiveness; | | | | | | | | | | the inclusion or omission of our drug candidates in applicable therapeutic and vaccine guidelines; | | | | | | | | | | the effectiveness of our own or any future collaborators sales and marketing strategies; | | | | | | | | | | limitations or warnings contained in approved labeling from regulatory authorities; | | | | | | | | | | our ability to obtain and maintain sufficient third-party coverage or reimbursement from government health care programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, private health insurers and other third-party payors or to receive the necessary pricing approvals from government bodies regulating the pricing and usage of therapeutics; and | | | | | | | | | | the willingness of patients to pay out-of-pocket in the absence of third-party coverage or reimbursement or government pricing approvals. | | If any of our drug candidates are approved, but do not achieve an adequate level of acceptance by physicians, health care payors, and patients, we may not generate sufficient revenue and we may not be able to achieve or sustain profitability. Our efforts to educate the medical community and third-party payors on the benefits of our drug candidates may require significant resources and may never be successful. In addition, even if we obtain regulatory approvals, the timing or scope of any approvals may prohibit or reduce our ability to commercialize our drug candidates successfully. For example, if the approval process takes too long, we may miss market opportunities and give other companies the ability to develop competing products or establish market dominance. Any regulatory approval we ultimately obtain may be limited or subject to restrictions or post-approval commitments that render our drug candidates not commercially viable. For example, regulatory authorities may approve any of our drug candidates for fewer or more limited indications than we request, may not approve the price we intend to charge for any of our drug candidates, may grant approval contingent on the performance of costly post-marketing clinical trials, or may approve any of our drug candidates with a label that does not include the labeling claims necessary or desirable for the successful commercialization of that indication. Further, the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may place conditions on approvals or require risk management plans or a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) to assure the safe use of the drug. If the FDA concludes a REMS is needed, the sponsor of the NDA must submit a proposed REMS; the FDA will not approve the NDA without an approved REMS, if required. A REMS could include medication guides, physician communication plans, or elements to assure safe use, such as restricted distribution methods, patient registries and other risk minimization tools. The FDA may also require a REMS for an approved product when new safety information emerges. Any of these limitations on approval or marketing could restrict the commercial promotion, distribution, prescription or dispensing of our drug candidates. Moreover, product approvals may be withdrawn for non-compliance with regulatory standards or if problems occur following the initial marketing of the product. Any of the foregoing scenarios could materially harm the commercial success of our drug candidates. | 35 | | **Clinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome, and results of earlier studies and trials may not be predictive of future trial results.** Clinical testing of drug candidates is expensive and can take many years to complete, and its outcome is inherently uncertain. Failure can occur at any time during the clinical trial process. The results of pre-clinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the results of later-stage clinical trials. We cannot assure you that the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities will view the results as we do or that any future trials of any of our drug candidates will achieve positive results. Drug candidates in later stages of clinical trials may fail to show the desired safety and efficacy traits despite having progressed through pre-clinical studies and initial clinical trials. A number of companies in the biopharmaceutical industry have suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical trials due to lack of efficacy or adverse safety profiles, notwithstanding promising results in earlier trials. Any future clinical trial results for our drug candidates may not be successful. In addition, a number of factors could contribute to a lack of favorable safety and efficacy results for any of our drug candidates. For example, such trials could result in increased variability due to varying site characteristics, such as local standards of care, differences in evaluation period and surgical technique, and due to varying patient characteristics including demographic factors and health status. **Even if we obtain marketing approval for any of our drug candidates, we will be subject to ongoing obligations and continued regulatory review, which may result in significant additional expense. Additionally, our drug candidates could be subject to labeling and other restrictions and withdrawal from the market and we may be subject to penalties if we fail to comply with regulatory requirements or if we experience unanticipated problems with our drug candidates.** Even if we obtain regulatory approval for any of our drug candidates for an indication, the FDA or foreign equivalent may still impose significant restrictions on their indicated uses or marketing or the conditions of approval, or impose ongoing requirements for potentially costly and time-consuming post-approval studies, including Phase 4 clinical trials, and post-market surveillance to monitor safety and efficacy. Our drug candidates will also be subject to ongoing regulatory requirements governing the manufacturing, labeling, packaging, storage, distribution, safety surveillance, advertising, promotion, recordkeeping and reporting of adverse events and other post-market information. These requirements include registration with the FDA, as well as continued compliance with current Good Clinical Practices regulations (cGCPs) for any clinical trials that we conduct post-approval. In addition, manufacturers of drug products and their facilities are subject to continual review and periodic inspections by the FDA and other regulatory authorities for compliance with current cGMPs, requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of records and documents. The FDA has the authority to require a REMS as part of an NDA or after approval, which may impose further requirements or restrictions on the distribution or use of an approved drug, such as limiting prescribing to certain physicians or medical centers that have undergone specialized training, limiting treatment to patients who meet certain safe-use criteria or requiring patient testing, monitoring and/or enrollment in a registry. With respect to sales and marketing activities by us or any future partner, advertising and promotional materials must comply with FDA rules in addition to other applicable federal, state and local laws in the U.S. and similar legal requirements in other countries. In the U.S., the distribution of product samples to physicians must comply with the requirements of the U.S. Prescription Drug Marketing Act. Application holders must obtain FDA approval for product and manufacturing changes, depending on the nature of the change. We may also be subject, directly or indirectly through our customers and partners, to various fraud and abuse laws, including, without limitation, the U.S. Anti-Kickback Statute, U.S. False Claims Act, and similar state laws, which impact, among other things, our proposed sales, marketing, and scientific/educational grant programs. If we participate in the U.S. Medicaid Drug Rebate Program, the Federal Supply Schedule of the VA, or other government drug programs, we will be subject to complex laws and regulations regarding reporting and payment obligations. All of these activities are also potentially subject to U.S. federal and state consumer protection and unfair competition laws. Similar requirements exist in many of these areas in other countries. | 36 | | In addition, if any of our drug candidates are approved for a particular indication, our product labeling, advertising and promotion would be subject to regulatory requirements and continuing regulatory review. The FDA strictly regulates the promotional claims that may be made about prescription products. In particular, a product may not be promoted for uses that are not approved by the FDA as reflected in the products approved labeling. If we receive marketing approval for our drug candidates, physicians may nevertheless legally prescribe our products to their patients in a manner that is inconsistent with the approved label. If we are found to have promoted such off-label uses, we may become subject to significant liability and government fines. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of off-label uses, and a company that is found to have improperly promoted off-label uses may be subject to significant sanctions. The federal government has levied large civil and criminal fines against companies for alleged improper promotion and has enjoined several companies from engaging in off-label promotion. The FDA has also requested that companies enter into consent decrees of permanent injunctions under which specified promotional conduct is changed or curtailed. If we or a regulatory agency discovers previously unknown problems with a product, such as adverse events of unanticipated severity or frequency, problems with the facility where the product is manufactured, or we or our manufacturers fail to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, we may be subject to the following administrative or judicial sanctions: | | | restrictions on the marketing or manufacturing of the product, withdrawal of the product from the market, or voluntary or mandatory product recalls; | | | | | | | | | | issuance of warning letters or untitled letters; | | | | | | | | | | clinical holds; | | | | | | | | | | injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties or monetary fines; | | | | | | | | | | suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approval; | | | | | | | | | | suspension of any ongoing clinical trials; | | | | | | | | | | refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications filed by us, or suspension or revocation of product license approvals; | | | | | | | | | | suspension or imposition of restrictions on operations, including costly new manufacturing requirements; or | | | | | | | | | | product seizure or detention or refusal to permit the import or export of product. | | The occurrence of any event or penalty described above may inhibit our ability to commercialize our drug candidates and generate revenue. Adverse regulatory action, whether pre- or post-approval, can also potentially lead to product liability claims and increase our product liability exposure. | 37 | | **Delays in the completion of, or the termination of, any clinical or non-clinical trials for any drug candidates for which we may seek FDA approval could adversely affect our business.** Clinical trials are very expensive, time consuming, unpredictable and difficult to design and implement. The results of clinical trials may be unfavorable, they may continue for several years, and they may take significantly longer to complete and involve significantly more costs than expected. Delays in the commencement or completion of clinical testing could significantly affect product development costs and plans with respect to any drug candidate for which we seek FDA approval. The commencement and completion of clinical trials can be delayed and experience difficulties for a number of reasons, including delays and difficulties caused by circumstances over which we may have no control. For instance, approvals of the scope, design or trial site may not be obtained from the FDA and other required bodies in a timely manner or at all, agreements with acceptable terms may not be reached in a timely manner or at all with CROs to conduct the trials, a sufficient number of subjects may not be recruited and enrolled in the trials, and third-party manufacturers of the materials for use in the trials may encounter delays and problems in the manufacturing process, including failure to produce materials in sufficient quantities or of an acceptable quality to complete the trials. If we were to experience delays in the commencement or completion of, or if we were to terminate, any clinical or non-clinical trials we pursue in the future, the commercial prospects for the applicable drug candidates may be limited or eliminated, which may prevent us from recouping our investment in research and development efforts for the drug candidate and would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. **We may depend on the success of our drug candidates, which have not yet demonstrated efficacy for their target or any other indications. If we are unable to generate revenues from our drug candidates, our ability to create stockholder value may be limited.** Our drug candidates are in various stages of clinical development. There is no guarantee that our clinical trials will be successful or that we will continue clinical development in support of an approval from the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities for any indication. We note that most drug candidates never reach the clinical development stage and even those that do commence clinical development have only a small chance of successfully completing clinical development and gaining regulatory approval. Therefore, aspects of our business depend on the successful development, regulatory approval and commercialization of our drug candidates, which may never occur. **If we are not able to obtain required regulatory approvals for a drug candidate, we will not be able to commercialize such drug candidate and our ability to generate revenues will be limited.** We must successfully complete clinical trials for our drug candidates before we can apply for marketing approval. Even if we complete our clinical trials, it does not assure marketing approval. Our clinical trials may be unsuccessful, which would materially harm our business. Even if our initial clinical trials are successful, we are required to conduct additional clinical trials to establish our drug candidates safety and efficacy, before an NDA or Biologics License Application (BLA), or their foreign equivalents can be filed with the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities for marketing approval of our drug candidates. Clinical testing is expensive, is difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. Success in early phases of pre-clinical and clinical trials does not ensure that later clinical trials will be successful, and interim results of a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. A failure of one or more of our clinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, the clinical trial process that could delay or prevent our ability to receive regulatory approval or commercialize our drug candidates. The research, testing, manufacturing, labeling, packaging, storage, approval, sale, marketing, advertising and promotion, pricing, export, import and distribution of drug products are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other regulatory authorities in the U.S. and other countries, which regulations differ from country to country. We are not permitted to market our drug candidates as prescription pharmaceutical products in the U.S. until we receive approval of an NDA from the FDA, or in any foreign countries until we receive the requisite approval from such countries. In the U.S., the FDA generally requires the completion of clinical trials of each drug to establish its safety and efficacy and extensive pharmaceutical development to ensure its quality before an NDA is approved. Regulatory authorities in other jurisdictions impose similar requirements. Of the large number of drugs in development, only a small percentage result in the submission of an NDA to the FDA and even fewer are eventually approved for commercialization. If our development efforts for our drug candidates, including regulatory approval, are not successful for their planned indications, or if adequate demand for our drug candidates is not generated, our business will be materially adversely affected. | 38 | | Our success depends on the receipt of regulatory approval and the issuance of such regulatory approvals is uncertain and subject to a number of risks, including the following: | | | the results of toxicology studies may not support the filing of an investigational new drug application for our drug candidates; | | | | | | | | | | the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities or Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) may disagree with the design or implementation of our clinical trials; | | | | | | | | | | we may not be able to provide acceptable evidence of our drug candidates safety and efficacy; | | | | | the results of our clinical trials may not be satisfactory or may not meet the level of statistical or clinical significance required by the FDA, the European Medicines Agency (the EMA), or other regulatory agencies for marketing approval; | | | | | | | | | | the dosing of our drug candidates in a particular clinical trial may not be at an optimal level; | | | | | | | | | | patients in our clinical trials may suffer adverse effects for reasons that may or may not be related to our drug candidates; | | | | | | | | | | the data collected from clinical trials may not be sufficient to support the submission of an NDA, BLA or other submission or to obtain regulatory approval in the U.S. or elsewhere; | | | | | | | | | | the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may fail to approve the manufacturing processes or facilities of third-party manufacturers with which we contract for clinical and commercial supplies; and | | | | | | | | | | the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may significantly change in a manner rendering our clinical data insufficient for approval. | | Failure to obtain regulatory approval for our drug candidates for the foregoing, or any other reasons, will prevent us from commercializing our drug candidates, and our ability to generate revenue will be materially impaired. We cannot guarantee that regulators will agree with our assessment of the results of the clinical trials we intend to conduct in the future or that such trials will be successful. The FDA, EMA and other regulators have substantial discretion in the approval process and may refuse to accept any application or may decide that our data is insufficient for approval and require additional clinical trials, or pre-clinical or other studies. In addition, varying interpretations of the data obtained from pre-clinical and clinical testing could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval of our drug candidates. Excluding any activities through our prior ownership interest in Eton, we have not received regulatory approval to market our drug candidates in any jurisdiction. We have only limited experience in filing the applications necessary to gain regulatory approvals and expect to rely on consultants and CROs, with expertise in this area to assist us in this process. Securing regulatory approvals to market a product requires the submission of pre-clinical, clinical, and/or pharmacokinetic data, information about product manufacturing processes and inspection of facilities and supporting information to the appropriate regulatory authorities for each therapeutic indication to establish a drug candidates safety and efficacy for each indication. Our drug candidates may prove to have undesirable or unintended side effects, toxicities or other characteristics that may preclude us from obtaining regulatory approval or prevent or limit commercial use with respect to one or all intended indications. The process of obtaining regulatory approvals is expensive, often takes many years, if approval is obtained at all, and can vary substantially based upon, among other things, the type, complexity and novelty of the drug candidates involved, the jurisdiction in which regulatory approval is sought and the substantial discretion of the regulatory authorities. Changes in regulatory approval policies during the development period, changes in or the enactment of additional statutes or regulations, or changes in regulatory review for a submitted product application may cause delays in the approval or rejection of an application. Regulatory approval obtained in one jurisdiction does not necessarily mean that a drug candidate will receive regulatory approval in all jurisdictions in which we may seek approval, but the failure to obtain approval in one jurisdiction may negatively impact our ability to seek approval in a different jurisdiction. Failure to obtain regulatory marketing approval for our drug candidates in any indication will prevent us from commercializing the drug candidate, and our ability to generate revenue will be materially impaired. | 39 | | **Obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval of our products and drug candidates in one jurisdiction does not mean that we will be successful in obtaining regulatory approval of our products or drug candidates in other jurisdictions.** Obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval of our drug candidates in one jurisdiction does not guarantee that we will be able to obtain or maintain regulatory approval in any other jurisdiction, but a failure or delay in obtaining regulatory approval in one jurisdiction may have a negative effect on the regulatory approval process in others. For example, even if the FDA grants marketing approval of a drug candidate, comparable regulatory authorities in foreign jurisdictions must also approve the manufacturing, marketing and promotion of the drug candidate in those countries. Approval procedures vary among jurisdictions and can involve requirements and administrative review periods different from those in the U.S., including additional pre-clinical studies or clinical trials, as clinical studies conducted in one jurisdiction may not be accepted by regulatory authorities in other jurisdictions. In many jurisdictions outside the U.S., a drug candidate must be approved for reimbursement before it can be approved for sale in that jurisdiction. In some cases, the price that we intend to charge for our products is also subject to approval. Obtaining foreign regulatory approvals and compliance with foreign regulatory requirements could result in significant delays, difficulties and costs for us and could delay or prevent the introduction of our products in certain countries. If we fail to comply with the regulatory requirements in international markets and/ or to receive applicable marketing approvals, our target market will be reduced and our ability to realize the full market potential of our drug candidates will be harmed. **Current and future legislation may increase the difficulty and cost for us to obtain marketing approval of and commercialize our drug candidates and affect the prices we may obtain.** In the U.S. and some foreign jurisdictions, there have been a number of legislative and regulatory changes and proposed changes regarding the healthcare system that could prevent or delay marketing approval for our drug candidates, restrict or regulate post-approval activities and affect our ability to profitably sell our drug candidates. Legislative and regulatory proposals have been made to expand post-approval requirements and restrict sales and promotional activities for pharmaceutical products. We do not know whether additional legislative changes will be enacted, or whether the FDA regulations, guidance or interpretations will be changed, or what the impact of such changes on the marketing approvals of our drug candidates, if any, may be. In addition, increased scrutiny by the U.S. Congress of the FDAs approval process may significantly delay or prevent marketing approval, as well as subject us to more stringent product labeling and post-marketing testing and other requirements. In the U.S., the Medicare Modernization Act (the MMA) changed the way Medicare covers and pays for pharmaceutical products. The legislation expanded Medicare coverage for drug purchases by the elderly and introduced a new reimbursement methodology based on average sales prices for drugs. In addition, this legislation authorized Medicare Part D prescription drug plans to use formularies where they can limit the number of drugs that will be covered in any therapeutic class. As a result of this legislation and the expansion of federal coverage of drug products, we expect that there will be additional pressure to contain and reduce costs. These cost reduction initiatives and other provisions of this legislation could decrease the coverage and price that we receive for our drug candidates and could seriously harm our business. While the MMA applies only to drug benefits for Medicare beneficiaries, private payors often follow Medicare coverage policy and payment limitations in setting their own reimbursement rates, and any reduction in reimbursement that results from the MMA may result in a similar reduction in payments from private payors. The Health Care Reform Law is a sweeping law intended to broaden access to health insurance, reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for healthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms. The Health Care Reform Law revised the definition of average manufacturer price for reporting purposes, which could increase the amount of Medicaid drug rebates to states. Further, the law imposed a significant annual fee on companies that manufacture or import branded prescription drug products. | 40 | | The Health Care Reform Law remains subject to legislative efforts to repeal, modify or delay the implementation of the law. Efforts to date have generally been unsuccessful. If the Health Care Reform Law is repealed or modified, or if implementation of certain aspects of the Health Care Reform Law are delayed, such repeal, modification or delay may materially adversely impact our business, strategies, prospects, operating results or financial condition. We are unable to predict the full impact of any repeal or modification in the implementation of the Health Care Reform Law on us at this time. In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted in the U.S. since the Health Care Reform Law was enacted. We expect that additional federal healthcare reform measures will be adopted in the future, any of which could limit the amounts that federal and state governments will pay for healthcare products and services, and in turn could significantly reduce the projected value of certain development projects and reduce or eliminate our profitability. **Our drug candidates may face competition sooner than expected.** Our success will depend in part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent protection for certain of our drug candidates and technologies and to prevent third parties from infringing upon our proprietary rights. We must also operate without infringing upon patents and proprietary rights of others, including by obtaining appropriate licenses to patents or other proprietary rights held by third parties, if necessary. However, the applications we have filed or may file in the future may never yield patents that protect our inventions and intellectual property assets. Failure to obtain patents that sufficiently cover our formulations and technologies would limit our protection against compounding pharmacies, outsourcing facilities, generic drug manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies and other parties who may seek to copy our products, produce products substantially similar to ours or use technologies substantially similar to those we own. We also intend to seek data exclusivity or market exclusivity for our drug candidates provided under the FDCA and similar laws in other countries. The FDCA provides three years of marketing exclusivity for an NDA, 505(b)(2) NDA or supplement to an existing NDA if new clinical investigations, other than bioavailability studies, that were conducted or sponsored by the applicant are deemed by the FDA to be essential to the approval of the application, for example, for new indications, dosages, or strengths of an existing drug. This three-year exclusivity covers only the conditions associated with the new clinical investigations and does not prohibit the FDA from approving NDAs for drugs containing the original active agent. Even if our drug candidates are considered to be reference products eligible for three years of exclusivity under the FDCA, another company could market competing products if the FDA approves a full NDA for such product containing the sponsors own pre-clinical data and data from adequate and well-controlled clinical trials to demonstrate the safety, purity and potency of the products. Moreover, an amendment or repeal of the FDCA could result in a shorter exclusivity period for our drug candidates, which would have a material adverse effect on our business. **We are and will be completely dependent on third parties to manufacture our branded drug products and drug candidates, and our commercialization of our drug candidates could be halted, delayed or made less profitable if those third parties fail to obtain manufacturing approval from the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities, fail to provide us with sufficient quantities of our drug candidates or fail to do so at acceptable quality levels or prices.** We do not currently have, nor do we plan to acquire, the capability or infrastructure to manufacture the API in our drug candidates for use in our clinical trials or for commercial product. In addition, we do not have the capability to manufacture any of our branded drug products and candidates as a finished drug product for commercial distribution. As a result, we are and will be obligated to rely on contract manufacturers. | 41 | | The facilities used by our contract manufacturers to manufacture our drug products and candidates must be approved by the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities pursuant to inspections that will be conducted after we submit an NDA or BLA to the FDA or their equivalents to other relevant regulatory authorities. We will not control the manufacturing process of, and will be completely dependent on, our contract manufacturing partners for compliance with cGMPs for manufacture of both active drug substances and finished drug products. These cGMP regulations cover all aspects of the manufacturing, testing, quality control and record keeping relating to our drug candidates. If our contract manufacturers do not successfully manufacture material that conforms to our specifications and the strict regulatory requirements of the FDA or others, they will not be able to secure and/or maintain regulatory approval for their manufacturing facilities. If the FDA or a comparable foreign regulatory authority does not approve these facilities for the manufacture of our drug candidates or if it withdraws any such approval in the future, we may need to find alternative manufacturing facilities, which would significantly impact our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approval for or market our drug candidates, if approved. Our contract manufacturers are subject to ongoing periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and corresponding state and foreign agencies for compliance with cGMPs and similar regulatory requirements. We do not have control over our contract manufacturers compliance with these regulations and standards. Failure by any of our contract manufacturers to comply with applicable regulations could result in sanctions being imposed on us, including fines, injunctions, civil penalties, failure to grant approval to market any of our drug candidates, delays, suspensions or withdrawals of approvals, operating restrictions and criminal prosecutions, any of which could significantly and adversely affect our business. In addition, we do not have control over the ability of our contract manufacturers to maintain adequate quality control, quality assurance and qualified personnel. Failure by our contract manufacturers to comply with or maintain any of these standards could adversely affect our ability to develop, obtain and maintain regulatory approval for or market any of our drug products and drug candidates. If, for any reason, these third parties are unable or unwilling to perform, we may not be able to terminate our agreements with them, and we may not be able to locate alternative manufacturers or formulators or enter into favorable agreements with them, and we cannot be certain that any such third parties will have the manufacturing capacity to meet future requirements. If these manufacturers or any alternate manufacturer of finished drug product experiences any significant difficulties in its respective manufacturing processes for our API or finished products or should cease doing business with us, we could experience significant interruptions in the supply of any of our drug candidates or may not be able to create a supply of our drug candidates at all. Were we to encounter manufacturing issues, our ability to produce a sufficient supply of any of our drug candidates might be negatively affected. Our inability to coordinate the efforts of our third-party manufacturing partners, or the lack of capacity available at our third-party manufacturing partners, could impair our ability to supply any of our drug candidates at required levels. Because of the significant regulatory requirements that we would need to satisfy in order to qualify a new bulk or finished product manufacturer, if we face these or other difficulties with our current manufacturing partners, we could experience significant interruptions in the supply of any of our drug candidates if we decided to transfer the manufacture of any of our drug candidates to one or more alternative manufacturers in an effort to deal with the difficulties. Any manufacturing problem or the loss of a contract manufacturer could be disruptive to our operations and result in lost sales. Additionally, we rely on third parties to supply the raw materials needed to manufacture our existing and potential products. Any business interruptions resulting from geopolitical actions, including war and terrorism, adverse public health developments, or natural disasters including earthquakes, typhoons, floods and fires, could affect our supply chain. Any reliance on suppliers may involve several risks, including a potential inability to obtain critical materials and reduced control over production costs, delivery schedules, reliability and quality. Any unanticipated disruption to a future contract manufacturer caused by problems at suppliers could delay shipment of any of our drug candidates, increase our cost of goods sold and result in lost sales. **We expect to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our drug candidates. If these third parties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or meet expected deadlines, we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for or commercialize any of our drug candidates, and our business would be substantially harmed.** We expect to enter into agreements with third-party CROs to conduct and manage our clinical programs, including contracting with clinical sites to perform our clinical studies. We plan to rely heavily on these parties for execution of clinical studies for our drug candidates and will control only certain aspects of their activities. Nevertheless, we will be responsible for ensuring that each of our studies is conducted in accordance with the applicable protocol, legal, regulatory and scientific standards, and our reliance on CROs and clinical sites will not relieve us of our regulatory responsibilities. We and our CROs will be required to comply with cGCPs, which are regulations and guidelines enforced by the FDA, the Competent Authorities of the Member States of the European Economic Area and comparable foreign regulatory authorities for any products in clinical development. The FDA and its foreign equivalents enforce these cGCP regulations through periodic inspections of trial sponsors, principal investigators and trial sites. If we or our CROs fail to comply with applicable cGCPs, the clinical data generated in our clinical trials may be deemed unreliable and the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may require us to perform additional clinical trials before approving our marketing applications. We cannot assure you that, upon inspection, the FDA or other regulatory authorities will determine that any of our clinical trials comply with cGCPs. In addition, our clinical trials must be conducted with products produced under cGMP regulations and will require a large number of test subjects. Our failure or the failure of our CROs or clinical sites to comply with these regulations may require us to repeat clinical trials, which would delay the regulatory approval process and could also subject us to enforcement action up to and including civil and criminal penalties. | 42 | | Although we intend to design the clinical trials for our drug candidates in consultation with CROs, we expect that the CROs will manage all of the clinical trials conducted at contracted clinical sites. As a result, many important aspects of our drug development programs would be outside of our direct control. In addition, the CROs and clinical sites may not perform all of their obligations under arrangements with us or in compliance with regulatory requirements. If the CROs or clinical sites do not perform clinical trials in a satisfactory manner, breach their obligations to us or fail to comply with regulatory requirements, the development and commercialization of any of our drug candidates for the subject indication may be delayed or our development program materially and irreversibly harmed. We cannot control the amount and timing of resources these CROs and clinical sites will devote to our program or any of our drug candidates. If we are unable to rely on clinical data collected by our CROs, we could be required to repeat, extend the duration of, or increase the size of our clinical trials, which could significantly delay commercialization and require significantly greater expenditures. If any of our relationships with these third-party CROs or clinical sites terminate, we may not be able to enter into arrangements with alternative CROs or clinical sites. If CROs do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or obligations or meet expected deadlines, if they need to be replaced or if the quality or accuracy of the clinical data they obtain is compromised due to the failure to adhere to our clinical protocols, regulatory requirements or for other reasons, any such clinical trials may be extended, delayed or terminated, and we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for or successfully commercialize our drug candidates. As a result, our financial results and the commercial prospects for any of our drug candidates would be harmed, our costs could increase and our ability to generate revenue could be delayed. **Any termination or suspension of, or delays in the commencement or completion of, any necessary studies of any of our drug candidates for any indications could result in increased costs to us, delay or limit our ability to generate revenue and adversely affect our commercial prospects.** The commencement and completion of clinical studies can be delayed for a number of reasons, including delays related to: | | | the FDA or a comparable foreign regulatory authority failing to grant permission to proceed and placing the clinical study on hold; | | | | | | | | | | subjects for clinical testing failing to enroll or remain in our trials at the rate we expect; | | | | | | | | | | a facility manufacturing any of our drug candidates being ordered by the FDA or other government or regulatory authorities to temporarily or permanently shut down due to violations of cGMP requirements or other applicable requirements, or cross-contaminations of drug candidates in the manufacturing process; | | | | | | | | | | any changes to our manufacturing process that may be necessary or desired; | | | | | | | | | | subjects choosing an alternative treatment for the indications for which we are developing our drug candidates, or participating in competing clinical studies; | | | | | | | | | | subjects experiencing severe or unexpected drug-related adverse effects; | | | | | | | | | | reports from clinical testing on similar technologies and products raising safety and/or efficacy concerns; | | | | | | | | | | third-party clinical investigators losing their license or permits necessary to perform our clinical trials, not performing our clinical trials on our anticipated schedule or employing methods consistent with the clinical trial protocol, cGMP requirements, or other third parties not performing data collection and analysis in a timely or accurate manner; | | | | | | | | | | inspections of clinical study sites by the FDA, comparable foreign regulatory authorities, or Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) finding regulatory violations that require us to undertake corrective action, result in suspension or termination of one or more sites or the imposition of a clinical hold on the entire study, or that prohibit us from using some or all of the data in support of our marketing applications; | | | 43 | | | | | third-party contractors becoming debarred or suspended or otherwise penalized by the FDA or other government or regulatory authorities for violations of regulatory requirements, in which case we may need to find a substitute contractor, and we may not be able to use some or any of the data produced by such contractors in support of our marketing applications; | | | | | | | | | | one or more IRBs refusing to approve, suspending or terminating the study at an investigational site, precluding enrollment of additional subjects, or withdrawing its approval of the trial; reaching agreement on acceptable terms with prospective CROs and clinical trial sites, the terms of which can be subject to extensive negotiation and may vary significantly among different CROs and trial sites; | | | | | | | | | | deviations of the clinical sites from trial protocols or dropping out of a trial; | | | | | | | | | | adding new clinical trial sites; | | | | | | | | | | the inability of the CRO to execute any clinical trials for any reason; and | | | | | | | | | | government or regulatory delays or clinical holds requiring suspension or termination of a trial. | | Product development costs for any of our drug candidates will increase if we have delays in testing or approval or if we need to perform more or larger clinical studies than planned. Additionally, changes in regulatory requirements and policies may occur and we may need to amend study protocols to reflect these changes. Amendments may require us to resubmit our study protocols to the FDA, comparable foreign regulatory authorities, and IRBs for reexamination, which may impact the costs, timing or successful completion of that study. If we experience delays in completion of, or if we, the FDA or other regulatory authorities, the IRB, or other reviewing entities, or any of our clinical study sites suspend or terminate any of our clinical studies of any of our drug candidates, its commercial prospects may be materially harmed and our ability to generate product revenues will be delayed. Any delays in completing our clinical trials will increase our costs, slow down our development and approval process and jeopardize our ability to commence product sales and generate revenues. Any of these occurrences may harm our business, financial condition and prospects significantly. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, termination or suspension of, or a delay in the commencement or completion of, clinical studies may also ultimately lead to the denial of regulatory approval of our drug candidates. In addition, if one or more clinical studies are delayed, our competitors may be able to bring products to market before we do, and the commercial viability of any of our drug candidates could be significantly reduced. **Even though we may apply for orphan drug designation for a drug candidate, we may not be able to obtain orphan drug marketing exclusivity.** There is no guarantee that the FDA, EMA or their foreign equivalents will grant any future application for orphan drug designation for any of our drug candidates, which would make us ineligible for the additional exclusivity and other benefits of orphan drug designation. Under the Orphan Drug Act, the FDA may grant orphan drug designation to a drug intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in the U.S. and for which there is no reasonable expectation that the cost of developing and making a drug available in the Unites States for this type of disease or condition will be recovered from sales of the product. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After the FDA grants orphan drug designation, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are disclosed publicly by the FDA. Orphan product designation does not convey any advantage in or shorten the duration of regulatory review and approval process. In addition to the potential period of exclusivity, orphan designation makes a company eligible for grant funding of up to $650,000 per year for four years to defray costs of clinical trial expenses, tax credits for clinical research expenses and potential exemption from the FDA application user fee. | 44 | | If a product that has orphan designation subsequently receives the first FDA approval for the disease or condition for which it has such designation, the product is entitled to orphan drug exclusivity, which means the FDA may not approve any other applications to market the same drug for the same indication for seven years, except in limited circumstances, such as (i) the drugs orphan designation is revoked; (ii) its marketing approval is withdrawn; (iii) the orphan exclusivity holder consents to the approval of another applicants product; (iv) the orphan exclusivity holder is unable to assure the availability of a sufficient quantity of drug; or (v) a showing of clinical superiority to the product with orphan exclusivity by a competitor product. If a drug designated as an orphan product receives marketing approval for an indication broader than what is designated, it may not be entitled to orphan drug exclusivity. There can be no assurance that we will receive orphan drug designation for any of our drug candidates in the indications for which we think they might qualify, if we elect to seek such applications. **Although we may pursue expedited regulatory approval pathways for a drug candidate, it may not qualify for expedited development or, if it does qualify for expedited development, it may not actually lead to a faster development or regulatory review or approval process.** Although we believe there may be an opportunity to accelerate the development of certain of our drug candidates through one or more of the FDAs expedited programs, such as fast track, breakthrough therapy, accelerated approval or priority review, we cannot be assured that any of our drug candidates will qualify for such programs. For example, a drug may be eligible for designation as a breakthrough therapy if the drug is intended, alone or in combination with one or more other drugs, to treat a serious or life-threatening condition and preliminary clinical evidence indicates that the drug may demonstrate substantial improvement over existing therapies on one or more clinically significant endpoints. Although breakthrough designation or access to any other expedited program may expedite the development or approval process, it does not change the standards for approval. If we apply for breakthrough therapy designation or any other expedited program for our drug candidates, the FDA may determine that our proposed target indication or other aspects of our clinical development plans do not qualify for such expedited program. Even if we are successful in obtaining a breakthrough therapy designation or access to any other expedited program, we may not experience faster development timelines or achieve faster review or approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Access to an expedited program may also be withdrawn by the FDA if it believes that the designation is no longer supported by data from our clinical development program. Additionally, qualification for any expedited review procedure does not ensure that we will ultimately obtain regulatory approval for such drug candidate. **Disruptions at the FDA, CMS, the SEC, and other government agenciesdue to funding lapses, shutdowns, staffing constraints, reorganizations, or shifting policy prioritiescould adversely affect our business and results of operations.** ** Our business depends in part on timely and predictable interactions with U.S. federal agencies, including the FDA, CMS, and the SEC. Periodic disruptions to agency operationswhether caused by lapses in appropriations or government shutdowns, reduced staffing levels, reorganizations, budget constraints, or shifts in policy prioritiesmay delay or limit an agencys ability to perform its customary functions. The federal government has experienced recent funding-related disruptions, and future disruptions remain possible. Such disruptions could, among other things, delay FDA review of submissions, scheduling or completion of inspections, issuance of guidance, or other regulatory actions; delay CMS coverage, reimbursement, or payment-policy activities; or constrain the SECs ability to review filings and registration statements and to conduct other oversight activities. During funding lapses, agency operations may be significantly curtailed under contingency plans, which can contribute to backlogs and extended timelines. In addition, announced federal reorganizations and workforce reductions affecting the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and certain of its operating divisions, including the FDA and CMS, may create further uncertainty regarding agency capacity, timing, and priorities. | 45 | | If agency capacity is reduced or agency priorities shift, we could experience greater regulatory uncertainty, slower review and decision timelines, increased compliance costs, and delays in executing aspects of our strategy. Further, funding lapses or broader governmental disruption could contribute to volatility in financial markets and reduced liquidity, which could adversely affect our ability to access capital on acceptable terms. **Risks Related to Our Indebtedness** **We have incurred significant indebtedness, which will require substantial cash to service and which subjects us to certain financial requirements and business restrictions.** In September 2025, we issued $250 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% Senior Notes due September 2030 (the 2030 Notes) and used the proceeds to refinance debt. All our prior debt was repaid in full. We may incur additional indebtedness in the future. Our ability to make scheduled payments on our indebtedness depends on our future performance and ability to raise additional capital, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash to service our debt, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring our debt or obtaining additional capital through equity sales or incurrence of additional debt on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive to our stockholders. Our ability to engage in any of these activities would depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time, and we may not be able to do so when needed, on desirable terms or at all, which could result in a default on our debt obligations. Additionally, our debt instruments contain, or from time to time may contain, various restrictive covenants, including, among others, our obligation to deliver certain financial and other information, our obligation to comply with certain notice and insurance requirements, and our inability, without prior consent, to dispose of certain of our assets, incur certain additional indebtedness, enter into certain merger, acquisition or change of control transactions, pay certain dividends or distributions on or repurchase any of our capital stock or incur any lien or other encumbrance on our assets, subject to certain permitted exceptions. Any failure by us to comply with any of these covenants, subject to certain cure periods, or to make all payments under the debt instruments when due, would cause us to be in default under the applicable debt instrument. In the event of any such default, lenders may be able to foreclose on our assets that secure the debt or declare all borrowed funds, together with accrued and unpaid interest, immediately due and payable, thereby potentially causing all of our available cash to be used to pay our indebtedness or forcing us into bankruptcy or liquidation if we do not then have sufficient cash available. Any such event or occurrence could severely and negatively impact our operations and prospects. **We could enter into various transactions that could increase the amount of our outstanding debt or adversely affect our capital structure or credit rating.** Subject to certain limited exceptions, the terms of the 2030 Notes do not prevent us from entering into a variety of acquisition, divestiture, refinancing, recapitalization or other highly leveraged transactions. As a result, we could enter into any such transaction even though the transaction could increase the total amount of our outstanding indebtedness, adversely affect our capital structure or credit rating or otherwise adversely affect the holders of the 2030 Notes. **Risks Related to Our Common Stock** **If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, which could cause our stock price to fall.** Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial results. If we cannot provide reliable financial results, our consolidated financial statements could be misstated, our reputation may be harmed and the trading price of our common stock could decline. As we discuss in Item 9A of this Annual Report, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2025. However, our controls over financial processes and reporting may not continue to be effective or we may identify material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls in the future. Any failure to remediate any future material weaknesses or successfully implement required new or improved controls, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our consolidated financial statements or other public disclosures. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock. | 46 | | **Our stock price may be volatile.** The market price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile. The market price could fluctuate widely in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including our ability to execute our business plan; operating results that fall below expectations; industry or regulatory developments; investor perception of our industry or our prospects; economic and other external factors; and the other risk factors discussed in this Risk Factors section. In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. **We have the right to issue shares of preferred stock without obtaining stockholder approval. If we were to issue preferred stock, it may have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of our common stock.** We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, with such rights, preferences and privileges as may be determined from time to time by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock at any time in one or more series and to fix the dividend rights, dissolution or liquidation preferences, redemption prices, conversion rights, voting rights and other rights, preferences and privileges for any series of our preferred stock that may be issued. The issuance of shares of preferred stock, depending on the rights, preferences and privileges attributable to the preferred stock, could reduce the voting rights and powers of our common stockholders and the portion of our assets allocated for distribution to our common stockholders in a liquidation event, and could also result in dilution to the book value per share of our common stock. The preferred stock could also be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method for raising additional capital or discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our Company. **We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future. Any return on an investment will be limited to any appreciation in the value of our common stock.** We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. Any payment of dividends on our common stock would depend on contractual restrictions, as well as our earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors as our Board of Directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates. **Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.** The sale of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that sales could occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to fall. Sales could occur upon the expiration of any statutory holding period, such as under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, applicable to outstanding shares, upon expiration of any lock-up periods applicable to outstanding shares, upon our issuance of shares upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, or upon our issuance of shares pursuant offerings of our equity securities. The availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make it more difficult for us to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future, when needed, on acceptable terms or at all. | 47 | | **Unstable market and economic conditions may have serious adverse consequences on our business, financial condition and stock price.** From time to time, global credit and financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in unemployment rates and uncertainty about economic stability. Our general business strategy may be adversely affected by any such economic downturn, volatile business environment and continued unpredictable and unstable market conditions. If the equity and credit markets deteriorate, it may make any debt or equity financing more difficult to complete, more costly, and more dilutive. In the event the Company or one of its subsidiaries needed to access additional capital, failure to secure financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our growth strategy, financial performance and stock price and could require us to delay or abandon development plans. In addition, there is a risk that one or more of our current service providers, manufacturers and other partners may not survive an economic downturn, which could directly affect our ability to attain our operating goals on schedule and on budget. **ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS** Not applicable. **ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY** We are subject to cybersecurity threats that could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, as well as our operationsincluding our manufacturing and marketing capabilities. We operate a risk-based cybersecurity program which is designed to: (i) ensure the security, confidentiality, integrity and availability of our information and systems; (ii) protect against anticipated or actual cyber threats to our information and systems; and (iii) protect against unauthorized access and/or use of our information and systems. Overall cybersecurity risk reporting is integrated with our enterprise risk management program, is included in discussions with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors and disclosed where appropriate. Our information technology and cybersecurity function is headed by our CEO, and Vice President of Information Technology, who are responsible for managerial oversight of our cybersecurity program. Our VP of Information Technology is an IT leader with over 20 years of experience. He holds a degree in Business Management - Administrative Data Systems and combines high-level security expertise including Microsoft Certified Solutions Expert (MCSE) and Fortinet Network Security Expert (NSE) certifications with a proven track record of securing enterprise-level data systems and optimizing technical operations. We utilize a layered approach in assessing, identifying, evaluating and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats, and leverage outside partners to gain intelligence on threats. We take input from industry activities, third party assessments and internal simulations and continuously adjust our protection mechanisms to be effective. We also assess operational and data security risks associated with our use of third-party service providers, understanding where failure points may exist within our supply chain operations and data protections. If we learn of a cybersecurity incident at a third-party service provider, our information technology department will maintain communication with that third-party service provider and communicate any cybersecurity incidents to the Vice President of Information Technology and CEO. All Harrow employees receive information security training (including data protection and fraud awareness) on an annual basis, and we use industry standard technology to monitor systems for anomalous behavior. We also require employees in certain roles to complete additional role-based, specialized cybersecurity trainings. In the event an incident were to occur, a Security Incident Response Team would be convened that consists of members from many functions, including legal counsel, the Vice President of Information Technology and the CEO. Our Board of Directors has the ultimate oversight of the Companys risksincluding cybersecurity riskswith our Audit Committee assisting the Board of Directors in its oversight of cyber and information security risks. Members of management that possess information security certifications and many years of experience work with our legal, finance and corporate governance functions to identify, define and report cybersecurity risks, policies and procedures and incident response plans. The Audit Committee receives updates on our cybersecurity program from management on a regular basis and more frequently as determined to be necessary or advisable. Updates to the Audit Committee include policies, processes, procedures and any significant developments related to the identification, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity risks, as well as effectiveness and changes in our ability to monitor, protect, detect and respond to incidents, risk reviews and industry news briefings. The Audit Committee also ensures that management provides a cyber and information security update to the Board of Directors at least annually. Finally, in the event a material cybersecurity incident were to occur, the CEO and Vice President of Information Technology would brief the Audit Committee which would then be responsible for assessing the materiality of the incident and making the determination of materiality and any related disclosure. | 48 | | We face a number of cybersecurity risks in connection with our business. Although we have numerous controls to protect against common attacks, some attacks may still be effective. Our controls are designed to detect, triage and eradicate these attacks. While we carry a cyber insurance policy to help cover investigation and mitigation expenses, it may be subject to limitations and be insufficient to cover all expenses that may result from a cybersecurity incident. Although the risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, have not materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition, such incidents could have a material adverse effect in the future as cyberattacks continue to increase in frequency and sophistication. For more information about the cybersecurity risks and other information technology and data privacy risks we face, see Item 1A. *Risk Factors* including the risk factor titled *A breakdown of our information technology systems, or a cyberattack or information security breach could significantly compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our information technology systems, network-connected control systems and/or our data, interrupt the operation of our business and/or affect our reputation.* **ITEM 2.

[RESERVED]** **ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS** The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this Annual Report). Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared and, unless otherwise stated, the information derived therefrom as presented in this discussion and analysis is presented, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon our current views, expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ substantially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, among others, the risks described in the Risk Factors section and elsewhere in this Annual Report. Additional information related to the comparison of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources between the years 2024 and 2023 is included in Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our 2024 Form 10-K filed with the SEC and is incorporated by reference herin.* *As used in this discussion and analysis, unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms the Company, Harrow we, us and our refer to Harrow, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Imprimis RxNJ, LLC, Imprimis NJOF, LLC, ImprimisRx, LLC, Harrow IP, LLC and Harrow Eye, LLC.* | 51 | | **Overview** We are a leading provider of ophthalmic disease management solutions in North America, and were founded with a commitment to deliver safe, effective, accessible, and affordable medications that enhance patient compliance and improve clinical outcomes. For over a decade, we have partnered with U.S. eyecare professionals to develop a comprehensive portfolio of high-quality products used to manage ophthalmic conditions affecting both the front and back of the eye, such as dry eye disease, wet (or neovascular) age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, refractive errors, glaucoma, and a range of other ocular surface conditions and retina diseases. By prioritizing clinical value to the provider and the patient Harrow empowers professionals to enhance patient outcomes and preserve vision. By combining our culture of creativity, entrepreneurship and groundbreaking innovation with operational discipline and strong financial performance, we are building a future where life-changing ophthalmic treatments are within reach for all. **Factors Affecting Our Performance** We believe the primary factors affecting our performance are our ability to increase revenues of our branded pharmaceutical products, grow and gain operating efficiencies in our operations, avoid or mitigate any potential regulatory-related restrictions, optimize pricing and obtain reimbursement options for our drug products, and continue to pursue development and commercialization opportunities for certain 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 2025 and 2026 to date that are important to understand our financial condition, results of operations, and expectations. See the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report for additional information about certain developments. *Commercial and Sales Force Expansions* In February 2026, we announced several commercial investments expected to be implemented during 2026 to support growth across key products. For VEVYE, following recent payor-coverage wins effective January 1, 2026, we began recruiting efforts to expand our commercial sales team from approximately 50 to 100 U.S. sales territories by late May 2026. For IHEEZO, we have begun expanding our commercial focus beyond retina practices into office-based ophthalmic procedures, targeting a broader set of anesthesia-dependent, reimbursed use cases, including non-retina intravitreal and subconjunctival injections, YAG/laser procedures, foreign body removals, and selected ocular surface and eyelid procedures. For TRIESENCE, we expect to increase the size of our dedicated sales force for this product during the coming months in response to favorable surgeon feedback and improving demand indicators, including increased interest in adoption and reordering for on-label uses in both office and surgical settings. *Acquisition of Remaining Interests in Melt Pharmaceuticals, Inc.* In September 2025, we entered into the Merger Agreement by and among Harrow, Harrow Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Harrow, Melt, and D. Brad Osborne, as stockholder representative. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement and a related milestone payment agreement, we agreed to acquire the remaining equity interests of Melt in exchange for an initial cash payment of approximately $4,300,000 at closing, and contingent consideration consisting of cash and Company equity upon achievement of (i) FDA approval of the MELT-300 drug candidate, (ii) coding and reimbursement of the MELT-300 drug candidate, and (iii) various one-time sales milestones, as follows: | | | Upon FDA approval of MELT-300, we shall pay an aggregate amount in cash of approximately $87,200,000. | | | | | | | | | | Upon receipt of pass-through status awarded and J-Code (or any other similar designation) issued by CMS for MELT-300, we shall issue an aggregate of approximately 1,112,000 shares of our common stock. | | | | | | | | | | Upon achievement of various annual net sales milestones ranging from $100,000,000 to $1,000,000,000 per year, we shall make various one-time cash payments that in the aggregate total up to approximately $260,000,000 if all annual net sales milestones are achieved. | | | 52 | | The regulatory and commercial milestones must be achieved, if at all, on or before December 31, 2035. The Melt acquisition closed on November 17, 2025, and was treated as an asset acquisition for accounting purposes. As a result of such transaction, Melts drug candidates are now owned by Harrow and its R&D activities subsequent to the acquisition are included in Harrows consolidated financial results as of the year ended December 31, 2025. *Fifth Third Revolving Credit Facility* In September 2025, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the 5/3 Revolver) with Fifth Third Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for itself and the other lenders (collectively, Fifth Third) providing for a senior secured revolving credit facility in the initial principal amount of $40,000,000, together with an uncommitted incremental revolving line of credit in the principal amount of up to $20,000,000. The 5/3 Revolver will mature on September 26, 2030, or, if earlier, the date that is 91 days prior to the earliest maturity date of the Companys 2030 Notes. Borrowings under the 5/3 Revolver bear interest at a floating rate equal to, at the Companys option, either (i) a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75%, or (ii) a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) based rate plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%. In addition, an unused fee of 0.25% per annum is payable monthly in arrears based on the undrawn portion of the commitments in respect of the 5/3 Revolver. Borrowings under the 5/3 Revolver are secured by a first priority lien in substantially all of the present and future property and assets, real and personal, of the Company, subject to customary exceptions. Under the 5/3 Revolver, we are subject to certain customary affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the 5/3 Revolver contains certain financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain, on a consolidated basis as of the last day of each month, a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.10 to 1.0. *Harrow Access for All* In September 2025, we announced Harrow Access For All (HAFA) to expand our proprietary patient access model from a single product to encompass Harrows comprehensive ophthalmic portfolio of branded, authorized generics (AGx), and compounded ophthalmic medications. Beginning in late 2025 and expanding into 2027, HAFA will provide a single, unified access point for prescribers and patients, offering affordability, streamlined prescribing, and predictable access. The platform creates a simpler, more predictable path to treatmentsupporting better outcomes for patients and greater efficiency for physicians. *8.625% Senior Notes Due 2030 and Payoff of Prior Debt* In September 2025, we closed a private offering of $250,000,000, aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior notes due 2030. The 2030 Notes offering resulted in net proceeds to us of approximately $242,748,000 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses of $7,252,000. The 2030 Notes are senior unsecured obligations and are effectively subordinated to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The 2030 Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by us, subject to certain exceptions. The 2030 Notes bear interest at the rate of 8.625% per annum. Interest on the 2030 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year. The issuance costs were recorded as a debt discount and are being amortized as interest expense over the term of the 2030 Notes using the effective interest rate method. We used the net proceeds from the 2030 Notes offering to prepay all then outstanding senior debt borrowings, exit costs, and accrued interest including $107,500,000 in total principal loan amount borrowed under the Credit Agreement and Guaranty (the Oaktree Loan) with Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC, as administrative agent for the lenders (together, Oaktree), $75,000,000 in total principal amount senior notes due 2026 (the 2026 Notes), and $40,250,000 in total principal amount senior notes due 2027 (the 2027 Notes). The 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes were listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbols HROWL and HROWM, respectively. The 2026 Notes were delisted on October 10, 2025 and the 2027 Notes were delisted on October 8, 2025. | 53 | | *BYOOVIZ and OPUVIZTM Commercialization Agreement* In July 2025, we entered into a development and commercialization agreement (the Samsung Agreement) with Samsung Bioepis Co., Ltd. (Samsung). Under the terms of the Samsung Agreement, following completion of the transition of commercial rights from Biogen, Inc. back to Samsung, Samsung will develop, manufacture, and supply BYOOVIZ (ranibizumab-nuna) and OPUVIZ (aflibercept-yszy) (individually, a Product and together, the Products) for Harrow to commercialize in the U.S. market (the Rights). In consideration of the Rights, we made a one-time upfront payment to Samsung of $4,000,000 in February 2026, and Samsung will be eligible to receive additional one-time payments based on the achievement of net sales-based milestones of the Products. In addition to other mutually agreed terms, we shall pay to Samsung a share of net sales from the Products generated in the U.S. market. We expect BYOOVIZ to be available in the middle of 2026 and OPUVIZ to be available in the middle of 2027. *Acquisition of Commercial Rights to BYQLOVITM* In June 2025, we announced a licensing agreement whereby we acquired the exclusive U.S. commercial rights to BYQLOVI (clobetasol propionate ophthalmic suspension) 0.05% from Taiwan-based Formosa Pharmaceuticals. BYQLOVI was recently approved by the FDA for the treatment of post-operative inflammation and pain following ocular surgery and is the first new ophthalmic steroid in its class in over 15 years. Harrow expects BYQLOVI to be available to launch in the US in the middle of 2026. *VEVYE Access for All* In March 2025, we announced a patient access program called VEVYE Access for All. The program is designed to increase patient access to VEVYE at an out-of-pocket cost of $59 or below and, in many cases, reduce the need for prior authorizations, step edits, and other treatment obstacles facing dry eye patients and their prescribers. *Project Beagle* In March 2025, we initiated a 360-degree review of opportunities to offer ImprimisRx customers a Harrow-owned FDA-approved product alternative to a compounded formulation. We call this initiative Project Beagle. In that vein, we began implementing a continuity of care program to transition approximately 25,000 ImprimisRx patients from our Klarity-C (0.1% cyclosporine) compounded formulation to VEVYE (0.1% cyclosporine), and we discontinued compounding Klarity-C during 2025. We are also discontinued another related compounded formulation called Klarity PF. Klarity PF is primarily purchased by a concentrated group of customers who we expect to continue accepting our FRESHKOTE product as an alternative. In February 2026, we announced the launch of PharmaPack, a direct-to-prescriber cash-pay offering designed to expand access to affordable, FDA-approved branded ophthalmic therapies as alternatives to compounded formulations. As we work through Project Beagle, we will continue to review opportunities to reduce the size of our compounded formulary, improve and simplify our compounding capabilities, and transition other ImprimisRx customers from compounded formulations to Harrows FDA-approved products. **Results of Operations** The following period-to-period comparisons of our financial results are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period. **Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024** *Revenues* Our revenues include amounts recorded from sales of branded products to wholesalers through a third-party logistics facility, sales of proprietary compounded formulations, and revenues received from royalty payments owed to us pursuant to out-license and like arrangements. The following table presents our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024: | | | For the Years Ended | | | | | | | | | December 31, | | | $ | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | Variance | | | | IHEEZO net sales | | $ | 81,348,000 | | | $ | 49,303,000 | | | $ | 32,045,000 | | | | VEVYE net sales | | | 88,688,000 | | | | 28,061,000 | | | | 60,627,000 | | | | Other branded products net sales | | | 25,326,000 | | | | 37,836,000 | | | | (12,510,000 | ) | | | Other revenues, net | | | 394,000 | | | | 915,000 | | | | (521,000 | ) | | | Branded revenue, net | | | 195,756,000 | | | | 116,115,000 | | | | 79,641,000 | | | | ImprimisRx revenue, net | | | 76,547,000 | | | | 83,499,000 | | | | (6,952,000 | ) | | | Total revenues, net | | $ | 272,303,000 | | | $ | 199,614,000 | | | $ | 72,689,000 | | | | 54 | | The increase in Branded revenues from product sales between the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was primarily related to an increase in sales and units sold of IHEEZO and VEVYE resulting from increased marketing efforts. These increases were partially offset by lower sales of other brands and lower Imprimis revenue. The decrease in ImprimisRx revenue was primarily due to a decrease in volume for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024. *Cost of Sales* Our cost of sales includes direct and indirect costs to manufacture formulations and sell products, including API, personnel costs, packaging, storage, royalties, shipping and handling costs, manufacturing equipment and tenant improvements depreciation, the write-off of obsolete inventory, amortization of acquired product NDAs, and other related expenses. The following table presents our cost of sales for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024: Branded | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | $ | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | Variance | | | | Cost of sales | | $ | 37,230,000 | | | $ | 21,667,000 | | | $ | 15,563,000 | | | The increase in Branded cost of sales was primarily attributable to an increase in units sold of IHEEZO and VEVYE during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 as well as an increase in intangible asset amortization related to acquired product rights for TRIESENCE and royalties related to VEVYE and IHEEZO. ImprimisRx | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | $ | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | Variance | | | | Cost of sales | | $ | 30,704,000 | | | $ | 27,578,000 | | | $ | 3,126,000 | | | The increase in ImprimisRx costs of sales between the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was primarily attributable to product mix that included more sales of lower gross margin products and inventory losses. *Gross Profit and Margin* Branded | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | $ | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | Variance | | | | Gross profit | | $ | 158,526,000 | | | $ | 94,448,000 | | | $ | 64,078,000 | | | | Gross margin | | | 81.0 | % | | | 81.3 | % | | | (0.3 | )% | | | 55 | | Gross Margin increased due to increased sales. The slight decrease in Branded gross margin percentage between the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was primarily attributable to an increase in our fixed expenses, in particular, acquired product rights amortization related to the launch of TRIESENCE and a related contingent milestone payment that was capitalized in the fourth quarter of 2024. ImprimisRx | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | $ | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | Variance | | | | Gross profit | | $ | 45,843,000 | | | $ | 55,921,000 | | | $ | (10,078,000 | ) | | | Gross margin | | | 59.9 | % | | | 67.0 | % | | | (7.1 | )% | | ImprimisRx gross margin decreased during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024 due to the previously mentioned change in product mix as well as inventory losses from lower manufacturing efficiency. *Selling, General and Administrative Expenses* Our selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses include personnel costs, including wages and stock-based compensation, corporate facility expenses, and investor relations, consulting, insurance, filing, legal and accounting fees and expenses as well as costs associated with our marketing activities and sales of our proprietary compounded formulations and other non-proprietary pharmacy products and formulations. The following table presents our SG&A expenses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024: | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | $ | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | Variance | | | | Selling, general and administrative | | $ | 152,914,000 | | | $ | 129,064,000 | | | $ | 23,850,000 | | | The increase in SG&A expenses between the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was primarily attributable to (1) increased payroll and related expenses of $15,092,000 due to the addition of new employees in sales, marketing and other departments to support current and expected growth, (2) increased marketing and advertising expense of $3,600,000 and (3) increased audit fees as a result of the Company being subject to the audit attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $5,114,000 between the periods. *Research and Development Expenses* Our R&D expenses primarily included 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. The following table presents our R&D expenses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024: | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | $ | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | Variance | | | | Research and development | | $ | 20,940 ,000 | | | $ | 12,230,000 | | | $ | 8,710,000 | | | The increase in R&D expenses between the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was primarily attributable to one time in-process R&D expense related to the acquisition of Melt of $8,450,000 during the fourth quarter of 2025. In addition, increased development activity related to our branded product portfolio, new product candidate development efforts, and clinical and medical support. During the fourth quarter of 2024, we recorded $2,000,000 of one-time R&D costs associated with the product development of TRIESENCE. | 56 | | *Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets* During the year ended December 31, 2025, there were no impairments or disposals of long-lived assets. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized an impairment loss of $253,000 related to intellectual property that we expect to no longer utilize in future revenue generating products and compounded formulations. *Interest Expense, net* Interest expense, net was $24,180,000 during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $22,786,000 during the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the principal balance of our loans over the periods presented. *Investment Gain (Loss) from Eton* During the year ended December 31, 2025, there was no gain (loss) from investments. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a loss of $3,171,000 related to the change in fair market value of Etons common stock at the time of its sale, including trading expenses and commissions of approximately $436,000. In April 2024, we sold all of our remaining shares in Eton. *Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt* During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $7,750,000 related to the payoff of a loan. There were no extinguishments of debt during the year ended December 31, 2024. *Other Income (Expense), net* During the year ended December 31, 2025, other income of $47,000 represents foreign exchange gains on settlement of foreign-denominated payables. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded other expense, net, of $185,000 related primarily to income from the sublease of office space in Nashville, offset by a loss associated with a cybersecurity incident. *Tax Expense* During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded income tax expense of $3,771,000 and $161,000, respectively. The increase in income tax expense in 2025 was primarily related to limitations of stock-based compensation expense under Section 179(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The following table presents our net loss for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024: | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Net loss | | $ | (5,139,000 | ) | | $ | (17,481,000 | ) | | | Net loss per share, basic and diluted | | $ | (0.14 | ) | | $ | (0.49 | ) | | **Liquidity and Capital Resources** **Liquidity** Our cash on hand at December 31, 2025 was $72,927,000, compared to $47,247,000 at December 31, 2024. As of the date of this Annual Report, we believe that cash and cash equivalents of $72,927,000 at December 31, 2025 will be sufficient to sustain our planned level of operations and capital expenditures for fiscal year 2026 and the foreseeable future. We may consider the sale of certain assets including, but not limited to, part of, or all of, our investment in Surface and any of our consolidated subsidiaries. However, we may pursue acquisitions of products, drug candidates or other strategic transactions that involve large expenditures or we may experience growth more rapidly 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. | 57 | | 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 products, 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 Flows* The following provides detailed information about our net cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023: | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | | Net cash provided by (used in): | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Operating activities | | $ | 43,864,000 | | | $ | (22,202,000 | ) | | $ | 3,840,000 | | | | Investing activities | | | (5,460,000 | ) | | | (33,164,000 | ) | | | (152,553,000 | ) | | | Financing activities | | | (12,724,000 | ) | | | 28,528,000 | | | | 126,528,000 | | | | Net change in cash and cash equivalents | | | 25,680,000 | | | | (26,838,000 | ) | | | (22,185,000 | ) | | | Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period | | | 47,247,000 | | | | 74,085,000 | | | | 96,270,000 | | | | Cash and cash equivalents at end of the year | | $ | 72,927,000 | | | $ | 47,247,000 | | | $ | 74,085,000 | | | *Operating Activities* Net cash provided by operating activities was $43,864,000 in 2025, compared to cash used in of $22,202,000 in the prior year. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities between the periods was mainly attributed to better operating results and collections of $5,010,000 of accounts receivable as a result of collection efforts partially offset by settlement of accrued accounts payable invoices of $4,608,000. Net cash used in operating activities was $22,202,000 in 2024, compared to cash provided by of $3,840,000 in the prior year. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities between the periods was mainly attributed to changes in our working capital balances including accounts payable, prepaid expenses, inventories and most notably, accounts receivable. Our accounts receivable balance between periods increased significantly due to an increase in our branded product sales, which have a longer revenue cycle compared to our ImprimisRx product sales. In addition, during 2024, we extended additional terms to our largest distributor to allow for downstream and end users (e.g. hospitals, clinics and ambulatory surgery centers) of certain of our branded products additional time to pay for our branded products. *Investing Activities* Net cash used in investing activities in 2025 and 2024 was $5,460,000 and $33,164,000, respectively. Cash used in investing activities in 2025 was primarily due the acquisition of Melt for $4,358,000 and equipment and software purchases of $887,000. Cash used in investing activities in 2024 was primarily due to the milestone payment of $37,000,000 related to TRIESENCE partially offset by cash received from the sale of our investment in Eton for $5,510,000. Cash used in investing activities in 2023 was primarily associated with product acquisitions. | 58 | | *Financing Activities* Net cash used in financing activities in 2025 was $12,724,000 and cash provided by financing activities in 2024 was $28,528,000. Cash used in financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to repayment of debt and payment of payroll taxes upon vesting of stock compensation mostly offset by proceeds from issuance of new debt. Cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to additional borrowings under our long-term debt facility with Oaktree of $29,780,000, net of issuance costs, and proceeds from the exercise of stock options, offset by the payment of taxes associated with the vesting and exercise of share-based awards. Cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily related to proceeds received from the issuance of the Oaktree Loan and Oaktree Amendment, issuance of unsecured debt and sale of our equity, offset by payment of payroll taxes upon vesting of PSUs in exchange for shares withheld from employees. **Sources of Capital** During the year ended December 31, 2025, our principal sources of cash came from cash generated by our operating activities. In future periods, including the year ending December 31, 2026, we expect cash to be provided from our operating activities, but our forecasts may not be accurate and our plans may change. We may also sell some or all of our ownership interests in Surface or our other subsidiaries In September 2025, we completed the sale of the 2030 Notes in a private offering and received net proceeds of $242,748,000. We used the net proceeds from the 2030 Notes to prepay all outstanding borrowings under the Oaktree Loan, the 2027 Notes, and the 2026 Notes, and to pay certain exit costs related thereto. The remaining funds will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include funding future strategic business development opportunities and related investments. We also entered into the 5/3 Revolver with Fifth Third in September 2025, which provided the Company with a secured revolving credit facility of $40,000,000, with an additional $20,000,000 of uncommitted incremental revolving line of credit. We have not drawn down any amounts under the 5/3 Revolver. The Company is in compliance with all debt covenants and expects to remain compliant for at least the next 12 months. 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. 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. | 59 | | **Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates** We rely on the use of estimates and make assumptions that impact our financial condition and results. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical results and trends as well as our forecasts of how results and trends might change in the future. Although we believe that the estimates we use are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. We believe that the accounting policies described below are critical to understanding our business, results of operations and financial condition because they involve the use of more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and any changes in the assumptions used in making the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur could materially impact our consolidated financial statements. **Revenue Recognition** We account for contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606, *Revenues from Contracts with Customers*. We have two 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, and (2) revenue recognized from intellectual property licenses. *Product Revenues* We recognize revenue from product sales at a point in time when our customer is deemed to have obtained control of the product, which generally occurs upon receipt or acceptance by our customer. Sales of branded pharmaceutical products are subject to variable consideration due to chargebacks, government rebates, returns, administrative and other rebates, and cash discounts. Estimates for these elements of variable consideration require significant judgment. We record reserves for rebates, chargebacks, discounts, distribution fees and product returns at the time revenue is recognized. These reserves are inherently uncertain because they depend on future utilization patterns, payor mix, wholesaler inventory levels, and contractual terms that vary across customers and programs. We use historical experience (where available), current-period data from distributors and payors, and forecasted sales volumes to estimate these amounts. At December 31, 2025, our sales deduction and returns reserves totaled $68,381,000 compared to $59,631,000 at December 31, 2024. The increase primarily reflects (i) higher ophthalmic product sales, (ii) expanded commercial rebate programs, and (iii) higher expected product returns associated with the timing of lot expirations, partially offset by lower co-pay assistance costs. Our estimates are sensitive to changes in payor mix and program utilization. For example, if our aggregate rebate and discount rate for 2025 had been 2 percentage points higher, product revenue would have been approximately $10.6 million lower, and if it had been 2 percentage points lower, product revenue would have been approximately $10.6 million higher. **Income Taxes** As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we must estimate the actual current tax assets and liabilities and assess permanent and temporary differences that result from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the consolidated balance sheets. A valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets for which it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We periodically re-assess the need for a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets based on all available evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, results of recent operations, and our historical earnings experience by taxing jurisdiction. Significant judgment is required in making this assessment. | 60 | | We recognize the financial statement effects of a tax position when our assessment is that there is more than a 50% probability that the position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based upon its technical merits. Uncertain tax positions are recorded based upon certain recognition and measurement criteria. Significant judgment is required in making this assessment, and, therefore, we re-evaluate uncertain tax positions and consider various factors, including, but not limited to, changes in tax law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit, information obtained during in-process audit activities, and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. We adjust the amount of the liability to reflect any subsequent changes in the relevant facts and circumstances surrounding the uncertain tax positions. **Intangible Assets** Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recorded at fair value, while intangible assets acquired in connection with an asset acquisition are recorded at cost. Payments to acquire intangible assets in an asset acquisition may include up-front payments and contingent consideration. With regard to contingent consideration in an asset acquisition, the Company recognizes regulatory milestones upon achievement, royalties in the period in which the underlying sales occur, and sales-based milestones when the milestone is deemed probable by the Company of being achieved. Significant judgment is involved in assessing the probability of achievement of milestones. If contingent consideration is recognized subsequent to the acquisition date in an asset acquisition, the amount of such consideration is recorded as an addition to the cost basis of the intangible asset and amortization expense is recorded prospectively over the remaining useful life of the asset. **Impairment of Intangible Assets** **** We hold significant definite lived intangible assets including; product rights, licensed intangible assets, and other intangible assets. Under GAAP, we evaluate these assets if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable (e.g., lower-than-expected sales, adverse regulatory or competitive developments, higher required returns, or changes in macroeconomic conditions). When we test definite-lived assets, we compare the carrying value to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group. If those cash flows are less than the carrying amount, we recognize an impairment equal to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds fair value. As a result of its assessment in 2024 and 2023, we recorded an impairment charge of $253,000 and $380,000, respectively, related to the impairment of certain licenses, trademarks, patents and patent applications (see Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements). We did not recognize any impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2025. **Stock-Based Compensation** **** We measure stock-based compensation for stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), performance stock units (PSUs), warrants, and restricted stock at fair value on the grant date and recognize the associated expense over the requisite service period. Estimating the grant-date fair value requires significant judgment because the valuation models we useincluding the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model and Monte Carlo simulation models for certain performance awardsdepend on several subjective assumptions such as expected volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rates, dividend yield, and, for PSUs, the probability of achieving market-based performance targets. These assumptions are inherently uncertain because they rely on forward-looking estimates of employee exercise behavior, future share price volatility, and performance outcomes that may differ from actual experience. For example, expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our stock and those of comparable companies, which may not be indicative of future results. Likewise, the estimated forfeiture rate reflects managements judgment regarding employee turnover and achievement of service or performance conditions and is revised when actual results differ from initial expectations. | 61 | | Our stock-based compensation expense is sensitive to changes in these inputs. Holding all other assumptions constant, a 10% increase in the expected volatility used to value stock option grants would increase the grant-date fair value of such awards by approximately 7%, and a 10% decrease in the expected term would decrease the fair value by approximately 7%. Actual outcomes that differ from our assumptions, including changes in share price performance or employee turnover, could materially affect the amount and timing of stock-based compensation expense in future periods. **Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements** We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities. **ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK** Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates. Our exposure to market risk is limited and relates primarily to interest rate risk on our cash and cash equivalents and the fair value of our outstanding fixed-rate indebtedness **Interest Rate Risk** **** As of December 31, 2025, all of our outstanding indebtedness bears interest at fixed rates. Accordingly, changes in market interest rates do not affect our contractual cash interest obligations or debt service requirements. However, changes in interest rates may affect the fair value of our fixed-rate debt. Based on our outstanding fixed-rate indebtedness as of December 31, 2025, a hypothetical 100 basis point movement in market interest rates would change the estimated fair value of such debt by approximately $2.5 million. These estimated changes would not impact our consolidated statements of operations or cash flows unless the debt is refinanced, repurchased, or otherwise settled prior to the maturity. Our cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of demand deposits and other highly liquid instruments with short-term maturities. As a result, interest income earned on these balances may fluctuate with changes in short-term interest rates. We do not believe that reasonably likely changes in interest rates would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We do not use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, to manage interest rate risk. **Foreign Currency and Other Market Risks** **** We do not have material exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk, or other market risks. **ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA** The financial statements and supplementary data required by this item are included in this Annual Report beginning on page F-1 immediately following the signature page hereto and are incorporated herein by reference. **ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE** None. **ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES** **Disclosure Controls and Procedures** Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO, our principal executive officer, and our CFO, our principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, pursuant to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). | 62 | | In connection with that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. For the purpose of this review, disclosure controls and procedures mean controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. **Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting** Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our CEO and CFO and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in *Internal Control Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations. Based on such evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025. Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm who also audited our Consolidated Financial Statements for 2025, has issued an attestation report on the Companys effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting which is included herein. The report by Deloitte & Touche LLP is included in our consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-1 of this report. **Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting** There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended December 31, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. **Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls** Our management, including our CEO and CFO, do not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control systems objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. **ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION** From time to time, certain of our executive officers and directors may enter into, amend or terminate written trading arrangements pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act or otherwise. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, none of our directors or officers adopted or terminated any Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (as such terms are defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K). **ITEM 9C.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. **Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting** A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Nashville, Tennessee March 2, 2026 | F-2 | | | | | **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM** To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Harrow, Inc. **Opinion on the Financial Statements** We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Harrow, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2025, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity, and cash flows, for the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 2, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Companys internal control over financial reporting. **Basis for Opinion** These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. **Critical Audit Matter** The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. | F-3 | | | | | **Revenues Estimates of Government Rebate Accruals Refer to Note 3 to the financial statements** *Critical Audit Matter Description* ** The Companys revenues for branded pharmaceutical products are subject to variable consideration, including government rebates. Reserves for rebates are estimated at the time revenue is recognized and are recorded as a reduction to gross revenues and an increase to accrued rebates to governmental agencies for utilization of the Companys products by beneficiaries under such governmental programs. Estimating these reserves requires significant management judgment because they depend on assumptions such as future utilization patterns, payor mix, wholesaler inventory levels, and contractual terms that vary across customers and programs. The Company uses historical experience (where available), current-period data from distributors and payors, and forecasted sales volumes to estimate these amounts. We identified the estimates for government rebate reserves as a critical audit matter due to the judgments required and complexity involved in determining the significant assumptions used in calculating the accruals. Auditing these estimates involved a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort. *How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit* Our audit procedures related to government rebate accruals included the following, among others: | | We tested the effectiveness of internal controls over government rebate accruals, including managements controls over the underlying assumptions used to estimate government rebate reserves. | | | | We evaluated the Companys methods and assumptions used to calculate government rebate accruals, including assumptions of utilization patterns, payor mix, wholesaler inventory levels, and contractual terms. | | | | We evaluated the Companys ability to estimate government rebate accruals accurately by comparing actual amounts incurred for government rebate accruals to historical estimates. | | | | We tested the reasonableness of the government rebate accruals recorded at period end by developing an independent expectation for comparison to actual recorded balances. | | /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Nashville, Tennessee March 2, 2026 We have served as the Companys auditor since 2025. | F-4 | | | | | **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM** **** Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Harrow, Inc.

ORGANIZATION** 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. all of which are marketed under its Harrow name. The Company also owns and operates ImprimisRx, one of the nations leading ophthalmology-focused pharmaceutical-compounding businesses. Effective September 29, 2023, the Company changed its corporate name from Harrow Health, Inc. to Harrow, Inc. pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to the Companys Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. **NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** **Basis of Presentation** Harrow has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). The accompanying 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. **Use of Estimates** The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management are, among others, allowance for credit losses, variable consideration determined based on accruals for chargebacks, administrative fees and rebates, government rebates, returns and other allowances, renewal periods and discount rates for leases, realizability of inventories, recoverability of investments, realizability of deferred tax assets, recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, valuations and purchase price allocations related to business combinations and asset acquisitions, fair value of loans payable, and valuation of stock-based transactions with employees and non-employees. Actual results could differ from those estimates. **Risks and Uncertainties** The Company is subject to certain regulatory standards, approvals, guidelines and inspections which could impact the Companys ability to make, dispense, and sell certain products or subject the Company to enforcement actions. The Companys 503B facility was inspected in 2024. The Company has been in discussions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding the 2024 and other past FDA inspections of its 503B facility and has developed action plans to address observations made by FDA during these inspections and has communicated those plans to FDA. If the Company was required to cease compounding and selling certain products as a result of regulatory guidelines or inspections, it could have a material impact on the Companys financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. | F-11 | | | | | **Credit Losses** The Company estimates and records a provision for its expected credit losses related to its financial instruments, including its trade receivables. Management considers historical collection rates, the current financial status of the Companys customers, macroeconomic factors, and other industry-specific factors when evaluating current expected credit losses. Forward-looking information is also considered in the evaluation of current expected credit losses. However, because of the short time to the expected receipt of accounts receivable, management believes that the carrying value, net of expected losses, approximates fair value and therefore, relies more on historical and current analysis of such financial instruments, including its trade receivables. To determine the provision for credit losses for accounts receivable, the Company has disaggregated its accounts receivable by class of customer at the business component level, as management determined that risk profile of the Companys customers is consistent based on the type and industry in which they operate, mainly in the pharmaceuticals industry. Each business component is analyzed for estimated credit losses individually. In doing so, the Company establishes a historical loss matrix, based on the previous collections of accounts receivable by the age of such receivables, and evaluates the current and forecasted financial position of its customers, as available. Further, the Company considers macroeconomic factors and the status of the pharmaceuticals industry to estimate if there are current expected credit losses within its trade receivables based on the trends of the Companys expectation of the future status of such economic and industry-specific factors. Also, specific allowance amounts are established based on review of outstanding invoices to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. Accounts receivable at December 31, 2025 and 2024 are net of allowances for credit losses of $884,000 and $416,000, respectively. The following table provides a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected at December 31, 2025 and 2024: SCHEDULE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE ALLOWANCE OF CREDIT LOSS | Balance at January 1, 2023 | | $ | 73,000 | | | | Change in expected credit losses | | | 332,000 | | | | Write-offs, net of recoveries | | | (34,000 | ) | | | Balance at December 31, 2023 | | | 371,000 | | | | Change in expected credit losses | | | 120,000 | | | | Write-offs, net of recoveries | | | (75,000 | ) | | | Balance at December 31, 2024 | | | 416,000 | | | | Change in expected credit losses | | | 555,000 | | | | Write-offs, net of recoveries | | | (87,000 | ) | | | Balance at December 31, 2025 | | $ | 884,000 | | | **Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions** The Company evaluates acquisitions of assets and other similar transactions to assess whether the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or asset acquisition by first applying a screen to determine if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If the screen is met, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If the screen is not met, further determination is required as to whether the Company has acquired inputs, process, and output, which would meet the requirements of a business. If determined to be a business combination, the Company accounts for the transaction under the acquisition method of accounting as indicated in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). ASC 805, *Business Combinations*, requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the fair value of all assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and establishes the acquisition date as the fair value measurement point. Accordingly, the Company recognizes assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, including any contingent assets and liabilities, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree based on the fair value estimates as of the date of acquisition. The Company recognizes and measures goodwill as of the acquisition date, as the excess of the fair value of the consideration paid over the fair value of the identified net assets acquired. | F-12 | | | | | The consideration for the Companys business acquisitions may include future payments that are contingent upon the occurrence of a particular event or events. The obligations for such contingent consideration payments are recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. The contingent consideration obligations are then evaluated each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, other than changes due to payments, would be recognized as a gain or loss and recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. If determined to be an asset acquisition, the Company accounts for the transaction under ASC 805-50, *Business Combinations Related Issues*, which requires the acquiring entity in an asset acquisition to recognize assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the cost to the acquiring entity or a relative fair value basis, which includes transaction costs in addition to consideration given. No gain or loss is recognized as of the date of acquisition unless the fair value of non-cash assets given as consideration differs from the assets carrying amounts on the acquiring entitys financial statements. Consideration transferred that is non-cash will be measured based on either the cost (which shall be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given) or the fair value of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, whichever is more clearly evident and more reliably measurable. The obligation for contingent consideration payments is recorded when the contingency is resolved and is probable and reasonably estimable. Contingent consideration recognized is included in the initial cost of the assets acquired and any subsequent changes in the recorded amount of contingent consideration are recognized as an adjustment to the cost basis of the acquired assets and allocated to the acquired assets based on the relative fair value at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not recognized in an asset acquisition and any excess consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired is allocated to the identifiable assets based on relative fair values. **Noncontrolling Interests** The Company recognizes any noncontrolling interest as a separate line item in equity in the consolidated financial statements. A noncontrolling interest represents the portion of equity ownership in a less-than-wholly-owned subsidiary not attributable to the Company. Generally, any interest that holds less than 50% of the outstanding voting shares is deemed to be a noncontrolling interest; however, there are other factors that are considered as well, such as decision-making rights. When applicable, and in prior periods, the Company includes the amount of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated net loss on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. The Company provides in the consolidated statements of stockholders equity a reconciliation at the beginning and the end of the period of the carrying amount of total equity, equity attributable to the parent, and equity attributable to the noncontrolling interests that separately discloses: | | 1. | net income or loss; | | | | | | | | | 2. | transactions with owners acting in their capacity as owners, showing separately contributions from and distributions to owners; and | | | | | | | | | 3. | each component of other income or loss. | | The noncontrolling interests in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, relate to consolidated subsidiaries for which the Company does not own 100% of the equity interests, and that no longer have active operations, assets and related financial activity. **Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue** The Company recognizes revenue at the time of transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services (see Note 3). | F-13 | | | | | **Cost of Sales** Cost of sales includes direct and indirect costs to manufacture formulations and other products sold, including APIs, personnel costs, packaging, storage, royalties, shipping and handling costs, depreciation and amortization of certain intangible assets and the write-off of obsolete inventory. **Research and Development** Research and development (R&D) expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities, including salaries and benefits, other overhead expenses, and costs related to clinical trials, contract services and outsourced contracts. The Company expenses all costs related to R&D as they are incurred. Upfront and milestone payments related to the acquisition and licensing of technology for drug and product candidates that are not yet approved by the FDA are considered acquisition of in-process R&D and expensed as R&D in the period in which the expense occurs. **Advertising Expense** Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Advertising expense was $8,078,000, $6,314,000 and $3,689,000 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. **Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discount** Debt issuance costs and the debt discount are recorded net of notes payable in the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of debt issuance costs and the debt discount is calculated using the effective interest method over the term of the related debt and is recorded in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. **Intellectual Property** The costs of acquiring intellectual property rights to be used in the research and development process, including licensing fees and milestone payments, are charged to research and development expense as incurred in situations where the Company has not identified an alternative future use for the acquired rights, and are capitalized in situations where the Company has identified an alternative future use for the acquired rights. Patents and trademarks are recorded at cost and capitalized at a time when the future economic benefits of such patents and trademarks become more certain (see Intangible Assets, including Goodwill below). If not capitalized, the costs are expensed as incurred. **Income Taxes** As part of the process of preparing the Companys consolidated financial statements, the Company must estimate the actual tax assets and liabilities and assess permanent and temporary differences that result from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the consolidated balance sheets. The Company must assess the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not more likely than not, a valuation allowance must be established which reduces the amount of deferred tax assets recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. To the extent the Company establishes a valuation allowance or increase or decrease this allowance in a period, the impact will be included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC 740, *Income Taxes*. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was $307,000 and $2,858,000, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits included in the consolidated balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate. The Companys policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had an accrual for interest or penalties of $82,000 and $69,000 in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and have recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 of $13,000 and $69,000, respectively. The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., New Jersey, Tennessee, and various other states. The Companys tax years since 2000 may be subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities due to the carryforward of unutilized net operating losses. **** **** | F-14 | | | | | **** **Cash and Cash Equivalents** Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition. **Concentrations of Credit Risk** The Company places its cash with financial institutions deemed by management to be of high credit quality. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) provides basic deposit coverage with limits up to $250,000 per owner. The Company believes the majority of its cash deposits are covered under FDIC limits, however there are various accounts in which the Company has deposits in excess of FDIC limits. **Accounts Receivable** Accounts receivable is stated net of allowances for credit losses and contractual adjustments. The accounts receivable balance primarily includes amounts due from customers the Company has invoiced or from third-party providers (e.g., insurance companies and governmental agencies), but for which payment has not been received. The Companys gross product revenues are subject to a variety of contractual deductions, which generally are estimated and recorded in the same period that the revenues are recognized. These deductions represent estimates of the related obligations and, as such, knowledge and judgment are required when estimating the impact of these revenue deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. Accounts receivable at December 31, 2025 are presented net of allowances for credit losses of $884,000 and $26,145,000 for contractual adjustments (in aggregate $27,029,000) and at December 31, 2024, net of allowances for credit losses of $416,000 and $19,731,000 for contractual adjustments (in aggregate $20,147,000). **Inventories** Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company evaluates the carrying value of inventories on a regular basis, based on the price expected to be obtained for products in their respective markets compared with historical cost. Write-downs of inventories are considered to be permanent reductions in the cost basis of inventories. The Company also regularly evaluates its inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence (expiration), taking into account such factors as historical and anticipated future sales or use in production compared to quantities on hand and the remaining shelf life of products and APIs on hand. The Company establishes reserves for excess and obsolete inventories as required based on its analyses. **Investment in Surface Ophthalmics, Inc. Related Party** **** The Company owns 3,500,000 common shares of Surface Ophthalmics, Inc. (Surface), representing approximately 20% of Surfaces outstanding equity. The Company accounts for this investment under the equity method of accounting, as management has concluded that the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over Surfaces operating and financial policies. Under the equity method, the Company recognizes its proportionate share of Surfaces net earnings or losses in its consolidated statements of operations and adjusts the carrying amount of its investment accordingly. The Companys share of earnings or losses is based on its ownership interest in Surface, and intra-entity profits and losses are eliminated. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company reduced the carrying value of its investment in Surface to zero after recognizing cumulative equity method losses equal to its investment balance of $5,320,000. The Company does not have any contractual commitments to provide additional funding or financial support to Surface and has not guaranteed any obligations of Surface. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized additional losses in excess of its investment balance. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Companys cumulative share of Surfaces net losses exceeded the carrying value of the investment; however, such unrecognized losses were not material to the Companys consolidated financial statements. Future equity method income, if any, will be recognized only to the extent it exceeds the cumulative unrecognized losses. | F-15 | | | | | The following table summarizes the Companys investment in Surface as of December 31, 2025 and 2024: SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENT | | | Cost Basis | | | Share of Equity Method Losses | | | Net Carrying value | | | | Common stock | | $ | 5,320,000 | | | $ | (5,320,000 | ) | | $ | - | | | See Note 6 for more information and related party disclosure regarding Surface. **Property, Plant and Equipment** Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Leasehold improvements and finance lease equipment are amortized over the estimated useful life or remaining lease term, whichever is shorter. Computer hardware and furniture and equipment are depreciated over three3 to five years. **Capitalized Software Costs** The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of internal-use software. Costs incurred during the application development phase are capitalized only when the Company believes it is probable the development will result in new or additional functionality. The types of costs capitalized during the application development phase include consulting fees for third-party developers working on these projects. Costs related to the preliminary project stage and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Internal-use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, which ranges from two2 to five years. When internal-use software that was previously capitalized is abandoned, the cost less the accumulated amortization, if any, is recorded as amortization expense. Fully amortized capitalized internal-use software costs are removed from their respective accounts. **Intangible Assets, including Goodwill** Patents and trademarks are recorded at cost and capitalized at a time when the future economic benefits of such patents and trademarks become more certain. At that time, the Company capitalizes third-party legal costs and filing fees associated with obtaining and successfully prosecuting claims related to its patents and trademarks. Once the patents have been issued, the Company amortizes these costs over the shorter of the legal life of the patent or its estimated economic life using the straight-line method. Acquired product rights, including new drug applications (NDAs), are amortized over their estimated useful lives based on a straight-line method. Trademarks are an indefinite-lived intangible asset and are assessed for impairment based on future projected cash flows as further described below. We review our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of January 1 of each year and when an event or a change in circumstances indicates the fair value of a reporting unit for goodwill or individual asset for indefinite-lived intangible assets may be below its carrying amount. We first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit or individual asset is less than its carrying amount. In performing this assessment, we consider factors such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market trends, cost factors, overall financial performance, changes in management or strategy, and other relevant events or circumstances. If, after evaluating these factors, we conclude that it is more likely than not that the fair value exceeds its carrying amount, no further analysis is required. If the qualitative assessment indicates that a quantitative impairment test is necessary, we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit or individual asset and compare it to its carrying amount. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis or other appropriate valuation techniques. | F-16 | | | | | If the fair value of the reporting unit or individual asset exceeds its carrying amount, the intangible asset is not considered impaired. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we recognize a goodwill impairment loss for the amount of the excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment is measured by comparing the individual assets estimated fair value with its carrying amount, with any excess of carrying amount over fair value recognized as an impairment loss. As a result of our assessments in 2025 and 2024, we concluded that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not impaired as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. **Impairment of Other Long-Lived Assets** Other long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, purchased intangibles subject to amortization and patents and trademarks, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. The fair value of the asset is based on the discounted value of its estimated future cash flows. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the consolidated balance sheet, if material. **Leases** At the inception of a contract the Company determines if the arrangement is, or contains, a lease. Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets represent the Companys right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the Companys incremental borrowing rate of the debt outstanding. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has made certain accounting policy elections whereby it (i) does not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for short-term leases (those with original terms of 12-months of less) and (ii) combines lease and non-lease elements of its operating leases as a single lease component. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any finance leases. **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 entitys 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. | | | F-17 | | | | | The 2030 Notes (as defined in Note 13) are carried at face value less unamortized debt issuance costs. The Company fully repaid principal balances under the Oaktree Loan (as defined in Note 13) and the 2026 and 2027 Notes (each as defined in Note 13) in September 2025. The Companys 2026 Notes were carried at face value, including the unamortized premium, less unamortized debt issuance costs, the 2027 Notes were carried at face value less unamortized debt issuance costs, and the Oaktree Loan was carried at face value less the original issue discount and unamortized debt issuance costs on the consolidated balance sheets and the Company presents fair value for disclosure purposes only. The 2026 Notes and the 2027 Notes were classified as Level 1 instruments as the fair value was determined using quoted market prices in active markets for the same securities. The 2030 Notes are classified as Level 1 instruments. The Oaktree Loan was classified as a Level 2 instrument as the 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 Companys fundamental measures. The following table presents the estimated fair values and the carrying values: SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE | | | December 31, | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | | | Carrying Value | | | Fair Value | | | Carrying Value | | | Fair Value | | | | 2030 Notes | | $ | 243,184,000 | | | $ | 262,500,000 | | | | - | | | | - | | | | 2026 Notes | | $ | - | | | $ | - | | | $ | 74,002,000 | | | $ | 75,840,000 | | | | 2027 Notes | | $ | - | | | $ | - | | | $ | 38,130,000 | | | $ | 42,198,000 | | | | Oaktree Loan | | $ | - | | | $ | - | | | $ | 107,407,000 | | | $ | 112,932,000 | | | The Companys 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 values of the operating lease liabilities approximate their respective fair values. **Stock-Based Compensation** All stock-based payments to employees, directors and consultants, including grants of stock options, warrants, restricted stock units (RSUs), performance stock units (PSUs) and restricted stock, are recognized in the consolidated financial statements based upon their estimated fair values. The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair value of stock-based awards. The estimated fair value is determined at the date of 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. The Company provides newly issued shares of common stock to satisfy the exercise and vesting for stock-based compensation awards. **Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share** Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Harrow, Inc. for the year by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to Harrow, Inc. for the year by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, such as stock options, RSUs, PSUs, and warrants, outstanding during the year. Common stock equivalents (using the treasury stock or if converted method) from stock options, unvested RSUs, and unvested PSUs were 3,363,016, 4,390,124, and 4,642,259 at December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are excluded in the calculation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented, because the effect is anti-dilutive for that time period. 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 but unissued RSUs at December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was 216,483, 211,020 and 215,539, respectively. | F-18 | | | | | **Reclassifications** **** The December 31, 2024 balances in the schedule of deferred tax assets and liabilities in Note 16 - Income Taxes have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. **Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements** In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, which enhances the disclosures required for income taxes in the Companys 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. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 as of December 31, 2025. The adoption did not impact the Companys consolidated financial results of operations, financial position or cash flows. **Accounting Guidance Issued but Not Adopted at December 31, 2025** In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, *Disclosure ImprovementsCodification Amendments in Response to the SECs 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 SECs 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 SECs 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 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement Reporting Comprehensive Income Expense Disaggregation Disclosures*, to improve the disclosures by a public business entity about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements. **NOTE 3. REVENUES** The Company accounts for contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606, *Revenues from Contracts with Customers*. The Company has two 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, and (2) revenue recognized from intellectual property licenses. *Product Revenues* The Company sells prescription medications directly through its pharmacy, outsourcing facility and 3PL partner. Revenue from the Companys 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 Companys 3PL partner, and the customer takes title of the products via formal purchase orders placed and fulfilled. | | | | | | | 2. | Identify the performance obligations in the contract: Obligations for fulfillment of the Companys 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. | | | F-19 | | | | | | 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. | | **Variable Consideration** Sales of branded pharmaceutical products are subject to variable consideration due to chargebacks, government rebates, returns, administrative fees, co-pay assistance and other rebates, and prompt pay discounts. Estimates for these elements of variable consideration require significant judgment. *Chargebacks* Chargebacks, primarily from distributors and wholesalers, result from arrangements with indirect customers establishing prices for products which the indirect customer purchases through a wholesaler. Alternatively, the Company may pre-authorize wholesalers to offer specified contract pricing to other indirect customers. Under either arrangement, the Company provides a chargeback credit to the wholesaler for any difference between the contracted price with the indirect customer and the wholesalers invoice price, typically Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC). Prior period chargebacks claimed by wholesalers are analyzed to determine the actual net price per package (NPP) for each product. This calculation is performed by product, by wholesaler. NPPs can be affected by several factors such as: | | | Changes in customer mix | | | | | Changes in negotiated terms with customers | | | | | Changes in the volume of off-contract purchases | | | | | Changes in WAC | | As necessary, NPPs are adjusted based on anticipated changes in the factors above. The difference between NPP and WAC is recorded as a reduction in both gross revenues in the consolidated statements of operations and accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets, at the time revenue is recognized from the product sale. The Company continually monitors chargeback activity and adjusts NPPs when the Company believes that actual selling prices will differ from current NPPs. *Government Rebates* Government rebates reserve consists of estimated payments due to governmental agencies for utilization of the Companys products by beneficiaries under such governmental programs. The two largest government programs are Medicaid and Medicare. | F-20 | | | | | The Company participates in the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program and pays rebates to the states related to Medicaid beneficiary utilization of the Companys products. Medicaid rebates are billed within 60-90 days of the end of the quarter in which the product was dispensed to a Medicaid beneficiary. Medicaid rebate amounts per product unit are established by law, based on the Average Manufacturer Price (AMP), which is reported on a monthly and quarterly basis, and, in the case of branded products, best price, which is reported on a quarterly basis. Medicaid reserves are based on expected claims from state Medicaid programs. Estimates for expected claims are driven by patient usage, sales mix, calculated AMP or best price, as well as inventory in the distribution channel that will be subject to a Medicaid rebate. As a result of the delay between selling the products, dispensing the products and rebate billing, the Medicaid rebate reserve includes both an estimate of outstanding claims for end-customer sales that have occurred but for which the related claim has not been billed, as well as an estimate for future claims that will be made when inventory in the distribution channel is sold through to plan participants. Many of the Companys branded products are also covered under Medicare. The Company participates in the Coverage Gap Discount Program in order for its branded products to be covered by Medicare Part D and must provide a rebate for any products sold under NDAs dispensed to Medicare Part D beneficiaries while the beneficiaries are in the Coverage Gap phase of the benefit. This applies to all products sold under NDAs. Estimates for these discounts are based on historical experience with Medicare rebates for products. Medicare rebates are billed quarterly for drugs dispensed to Medicare beneficiaries in the prior quarter, which is typically 120 days after the product is shipped. As a result of the delay between selling the products, dispensing the products and rebate billing, Medicare rebate reserve includes both an estimate of outstanding claims for end-customer sales that have occurred but for which the related claim has not been billed, as well as an estimate for future claims that will be made when inventory in the distribution channel is sold through to Medicare Part D participants. To evaluate the adequacy of the government rebate reserves, reserves are reviewed on a quarterly basis against actual claims data to ensure the liability is fairly stated. The Company continually monitors the government rebate reserve and adjusts estimates if it is expected that actual government rebates may differ from established accruals. Accruals for government rebates are recorded as a reduction to gross revenues in the consolidated statements of operations and as an increase to accrued rebates in the consolidated balance sheets. *Returns* A returns policy is in place that allows customers to return product within a specified period prior to and subsequent to the expiration date. Generally, product may be returned for a period beginning six months prior to its expiration date to up to one year after its expiration date. Product returns are settled through the issuance of a credit to the customer. The estimate for returns is based upon historical experience with actual returns. While such experience has allowed for reasonable estimation in the past, history may not always be an accurate indicator of future returns. The Company continually monitors estimates for returns and adjusts when it is expected that actual product returns may differ from the established accruals. Accruals for returns are recorded as a reduction to gross revenues in the consolidated statements of operations and as an increase to accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. *Administrative Fees and Other Rebates* Administrative fees or rebates are offered to wholesalers, group purchasing organizations, and indirect customers. Fees and rebates are accrued, by product by wholesaler, at the time of sale based on contracted rates and NPP. To evaluate the adequacy of the administrative fee accruals, on-hand inventory counts are obtained from the wholesalers. The Company continually monitors administrative fee activity and adjusts accruals when it is expected that actual administrative fees may differ from the accruals. Accruals for administrative fees and other rebates are recorded as a reduction in both gross revenues in the consolidated statements of operations and accounts receivable or accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. *Co-payment Assistance* Patients who meet certain eligibility requirements may receive co-payment assistance funded by the Company. The Company records contra-revenue for co-payment assistance based on actual program participation and estimates of program redemption using data provided by third-party administrators. An accrued liability is recorded and revenue is reduced on unredeemed co-payment assistance related to products for which control has been transferred to the customer. | F-21 | | | | | *Prompt Payment Discounts* Sales discounts may be granted to customers for prompt payment. The reserve for prompt payment discounts is based on invoices outstanding. Based on past experience, it is assumed that all available discounts will be taken. Accruals for prompt payment discounts are recorded as a reduction in both gross revenues in the consolidated statements of operations and accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. The following table summarizes activity and ending balances of the Companys variable consideration provisions in the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023: SCHEDULE OF ACCRUALS AND ALLOWANCES | | | Chargebacks | | | Government Rebates | | | Returns | | | Administrative Fees and Other Rebates | | | Co-Pay Assistance | | | Prompt Pay Discounts | | | Total | | | | | | Accruals for Chargebacks, Returns, and Other Allowances | | | | | | | | | Chargebacks | | | Government Rebates | | | Returns | | | Administrative Fees and Other Rebates | | | Co-Pay Assistance | | | Prompt Pay Discounts | | | Total | | | | Balance at December 31, 2022 (1) | | $ | 256,000 | | | $ | - | | | $ | 49,000 | | | $ | 370,000 | | | $ | - | | | $ | 31,000 | | | $ | 706,000 | | | | Accruals/Adjustments | | | 6,093,000 | | | | 5,153,000 | | | | 1,576,000 | | | | 33,498,000 | | | | 1,310,000 | | | | 1,542,000 | | | | 49,172,000 | | | | Credits Taken Against Reserve | | | (3,539,000 | ) | | | (1,568,000 | ) | | | (854,000 | ) | | | (9,799,000 | ) | | | (339,000 | ) | | | (472,000 | ) | | | (16,571,000 | ) | | | Balance at December 31, 2023 (1) | | | 2,810,000 | | | | 3,585,000 | | | | 771,000 | | | | 24,069,000 | | | | 971,000 | | | | 1,101,000 | | | | 33,307,000 | | | | Accruals/Adjustments | | | 8,607,000 | | | | 11,968,000 | | | | 9,089,000 | | | | 81,722,000 | | | | 98,052,000 | | | | 5,941,000 | | | | 215,379,000 | | | | Credits Taken Against Reserve | | | (10,457,000 | ) | | | (3,193,000 | ) | | | (8,411,000 | ) | | | (72,918,000 | ) | | | (89,411,000 | ) | | | (4,665,000 | ) | | | (189,055,000 | ) | | | Balance at December 31, 2024 (1) | | | 960,000 | | | | 12,360,000 | | | | 1,449,000 | | | | 32,873,000 | | | | 9,612,000 | | | | 2,377,000 | | | | 59,631,000 | | | | Balance | | | 960,000 | | | | 12,360,000 | | | | 1,449,000 | | | | 32,873,000 | | | | 9,612,000 | | | | 2,377,000 | | | | 59,631,000 | | | | Accruals/Adjustments | | | 40,610,000 | | | | 31,627,000 | | | | 15,619,000 | | | | 89,952,000 | | | | 40,991,000 | | | | 5,792,000 | | | | 224,591,000 | | | | Credits Taken Against Reserve | | | (30,543,000 | ) | | | (15,770,000 | ) | | | (9,050,000 | ) | | | (106,285,000 | ) | | | (48,518,000 | ) | | | (5,675,000 | ) | | | (215,841,000 | ) | | | Balance at December 31, 2025 (1) | | $ | 11,027,000 | | | $ | 28,217,000 | | | $ | 8,018,000 | | | $ | 16,540,000 | | | $ | 2,085,000 | | | $ | 2,494,000 | | | $ | 68,381,000 | | | | Balance | | $ | 11,027,000 | | | $ | 28,217,000 | | | $ | 8,018,000 | | | $ | 16,540,000 | | | $ | 2,085,000 | | | $ | 2,494,000 | | | $ | 68,381,000 | | | | | (1) | Chargebacks and other allowances are included as an offset to accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. Administrative Fees and Other Rebates, Prompt Payment Discounts and Returns are included as a reduction to accounts receivable, net of chargebacks and other allowances or accrued expenses and other in the consolidated balance sheets. Government Rebates are included in accrued government rebates and copay assistance in the consolidated balance sheets. | | **Revenues From Transfer of Acquired Product Sales and Profits** **** During 2024 and 2023, the Company was a party to 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 Companys 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 Companys consolidated statements of operations, and recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets, at the time the revenue is recognized. | F-22 | | | | | **Other Revenue: Intellectual Property License and Related Arrangements** The Company currently holds five intellectual property licenses and related agreements pursuant to which the Company has agreed to license or sell to a customer with the right to access the Companys 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 Companys performance under the other elements of the arrangement. In addition, if the Companys 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. Deferred revenue and customer deposits at December 31, 2025 and 2024, were $788,000 and $44,000, respectively. All deferred revenue and customer deposit amounts at December 31, 2024 were recognized as revenue during the year ended December 31, 2025. **NOTE 4. RECENT PRODUCT ACQUISITIONS AND LICENSES** *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 years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, $9,526,000, $4,126,000 and $647,000, respectively, were incurred under these agreements as royalty expenses. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, $7,000,000 and $37,000,000, respectively, was incurred under these agreements related to upfront and milestone payments under these agreements. As of December 31, 2025, the remaining contingent consideration payable pursuant to these agreements were not considered payable as the contingency is not resolved and therefore, no amount was accrued related to these contingent obligations during the year ended December 31, 2025. At the time contingent consideration becomes payable when the contingency is resolved, 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. ** *BYOOVIZ and OPUVIZTM Commercialization Agreement* In July 2025, the Company entered into a development and commercialization agreement (the Samsung Agreement) with Samsung Bioepis Co., Ltd. (Samsung). Under the terms of the Samsung Agreement, following completion of the transition of commercial rights from Biogen, Inc. back to Samsung, Samsung will develop, manufacture, and supply BYOOVIZ (ranibizumab-nuna) and OPUVIZ (aflibercept-yszy) (individually, a Product and together, the Products) for Harrow to commercialize in the U.S. market (the Rights). The Company accounted for the transaction as an acquisition of assets and capitalized the one-time upfront payment of $4,000,000 to Samsung in February 2026 following the License Effective Date in January 2026. Samsung will also be eligible to receive additional one-time payments based on the achievement of net sales-based milestones of the Products. In addition to other mutually agreed terms, Harrow shall pay to Samsung a share of net sales from the Products generated in the U.S. market. | F-23 | | | | | Contingent consideration related to the transaction will be recognized only when the contingency is resolved and the consideration is considered payable. *Acquisition of Commercial Rights to BYQLOVITM* ** In June 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into a license and supply agreement (the Formosa Agreement) with Formosa Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Formosa). Under the terms of the Formosa Agreement, the Company licensed from Formosa the exclusive rights and marketing authorization of BYQLOVITM (clobetasol propionate ophthalmic suspension) 0.05% in the U.S. market. In consideration for such rights, the Company will make a one-time payment to Formosa equal to $500,000 at the time the Company makes its first commercial sale of BYQLOVI to a third party and Formosa will be eligible to receive other one-time payments based on achievement of commercial gross profit milestones along with royalties on gross profits of BYQLOVI. ** *Acquisition of VEVYE U.S. and Canadian Commercial Rights* In July 2023, the Company acquired commercial rights of VEVYE (cyclosporine ophthalmic solution) 0.1%, an ophthalmic drug product, for the U.S. and Canadian markets (the VEVYE Acquisition). The Company acquired the commercial rights to VEVYE by entering into a license agreement with Novaliq GmbH (Novaliq). As consideration, the Company 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. The Company accounted for the VEVYE Acquisition as an acquisition of assets and capitalized the initial payments of $8,000,000 and costs of $70,000 associated with the transaction. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company capitalized a commercial milestone of $7,000,000 related to sales of VEVYE. Remaining contingent consideration related to the transaction will be recognized only when the contingency is resolved and the consideration is considered payable. *Acquisition of Certain U.S. and Canadian Commercial Rights to Santen and Eyevance Products* In July 2023, the Company 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, the Company acquired the exclusive commercial rights to assets associated with the following ophthalmic products (collectively, the Santen Products): FLAREX, NATACYN, ZERVIATE, VERKAZIA and FRESHKOTE in the U.S., and VERKAZIA and CATIONORM PLUS in Canada. The transactions pursuant to the Santen Agreements are referred to in these notes as the Santen Products Acquisition. Under the terms of the Santen Agreements, the Company made an initial one-time payment of $8,000,000. In addition, the Santen Agreements provide for various one-time contingent 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, the Company 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, prior to the transfer of the Santen Products NDAs and other marketing authorizations to the Company, Santen continued to sell the Santen Products on the Companys behalf and transfer the net profit from the sale of the Santen Products to the Company. In October 2023, the Company completed the transfer of the U.S. NDAs and rights of the Santen Products. The assets acquired in the Santen Products Acquisition are identifiable intangible asset groups in similar asset classes and all directly related to the product NDAs and marketing authorizations acquired. The developed technology is within one major intangible asset class. No workforce/employees were included in the Santen Products Acquisition and the Company is required to utilize its own business inputs/processes to transfer and commercialize the Santen Products. | F-24 | | | | | The Company incurred $139,000 in costs associated with the Santen Products Acquisition, the payment of $8,000,000 at closing and a near term milestone of $500,000. The total purchase price of the Santen Products Acquisition was $8,639,000 and was accounted for as an asset acquisition. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, two contract amendments were executed which resulted in payment of the remaining contingent consideration available under both Santen Agreements. *Refer to Note 20. Subsequent Events for additional information.* *Acquisition of ILEVRO, NEVANAC, VIGAMOX, MAXIDEX, and TRIESENCE* In December 2022, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the NVS 5 APA) 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 NVS 5 Products) in the U.S. (the NVS 5 Acquisition): ILEVRO, NEVANAC, VIGAMOX, MAXIDEX, and TRIESENCE. Under the terms of the NVS 5 APA, the Company made a one-time payment of $130,000,000 at closing in January 2023, with up to another $45,000,000 due in a milestone payment related to the timing of the commercial availability of TRIESENCE. The milestone payment due upon commercial availability for TRIESENCE decreased from $45,000,000 to $37,000,000 on January 20, 2024. Pursuant to the NVS 5 APA and various ancillary agreements, immediately following the closing and subject to certain conditions and prior to the transfer of the NVS 5 Products NDAs to the Company, Novartis continued to sell the NVS 5 Products on the Companys behalf and transfer the net profit from the sale of the NVS 5 Products to the Company. Novartis has agreed to supply certain NVS 5 Products to the Company for a period of time after the NDAs are transferred and to assist with technology transfer of the NVS 5 Products manufacturing to other third-party manufacturers, if needed. The assets acquired in the NVS 5 Acquisition are identifiable intangible asset groups in similar asset classes and all directly related to the five product NDAs acquired. The developed technology is within one major intangible asset class. No workforce/employees were included in the NVS 5 Acquisition, and the Company is required to utilize its own business inputs/processes to transfer and commercialize the NVS 5 Products and NDAs. The Company incurred $558,000 in costs associated with the NVS 5 Acquisition. Including such acquisition costs and the payment of $130,000,000 at closing, the total purchase price of the NVS 5 Acquisition was $130,558,000 and was accounted for as an asset acquisition. At the time of the NVS 5 Acquisition and as of December 31, 2023, the contingent consideration due related to the commercial availability of TRIESENCE was not considered probable and reasonably estimable and, therefore, no amount was included in the purchase price of the NVS 5 Acquisition. In 2024, the Company determined the milestone related to the commercial availability of TRIESENCE was probable of being achieved, and recognized the $37,000,000 milestone payment as an increase in the amount of intangible assets and allocated to all of the assets on a pro rata basis based on their initial estimated fair values as a percentage of the total purchase price. The Company does not consider any amounts related to TRIESENCE to be in-process research and development (IPR&D) as considered within the scope of ASC 730, *Research and Development*. **NOTE 5. INVESTMENT IN MELT PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND AGREEMENTS RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS** In December 2018, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the Melt APA) with Melt Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Melt). Pursuant to the terms of the Melt APA, Melt was assigned certain intellectual property and related rights from the Company to develop, formulate, make, sell, and sub-license certain Company conscious sedation and analgesia related formulations (collectively, the Melt Products). Under the terms of the Melt APA, Melt was required to make mid-single digit royalty payments to the Company on net sales of the Melt Products while any patent rights remain outstanding, as well as other conditions. In connection with the settlement of a Note receivable from Melt of $18,395,000 in 2023, the Company received 2,260,000 shares of Melts Series B-1 Preferred Stock and 74,256 shares of Melts Series B Preferred Stock (which both series have similar rights and preferences) in consideration for the full payment of all outstanding amounts under the Melt Loan Agreement. The Settlement Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and releases of the parties and requires the parties to enter into a registration rights agreement providing the Company with rights consistent with other holders of preferred stock of Melt. The Company concluded the Settlement Agreement was in substance a funding of the Companys share of prior unrecorded losses and, therefore, those suspended losses must be recognized first against the value of the new preferred stock investments. This resulted in reducing the carrying value of the Companys investment in Melt, including the carrying value of the Preferred Stock received, to zero (the consideration received in the form of an equivalent fair value of Melts Preferred Stock to settle the full outstanding note receivable balance of $18,400,000 is offset by an equal amount of the funding of prior unrecorded losses). | F-25 | | | | | In accordance with ASC 323, *Investments Equity Method and Joint Ventures*, the carrying amount of the note receivable and other investments in Melt have been reduced to zero by the Companys allocated share of Melts losses based on its ownership of Melt and its total indebtedness (see Note 2). *Acquisition of Remaining Interests in Melt Pharmaceuticals, Inc. - Related Party* In September 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) by and among the Company, Harrow Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Melt Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Melt), and D. Brad Osborne, as stockholder representative. The transaction closed on November 17, 2025. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement and related milestone payment agreement, the Company agreed to acquire the remaining equity interests of Melt in exchange for an initial cash payment of approximately $4,300,000 at closing, and contingent consideration consisting of cash and Company equity upon achievement of (i) FDA approval of the MELT-300 product candidate, (ii) coding and reimbursement of the MELT-300 product candidate, and (iii) various one-time sales milestones, as follows: | | | Upon FDA approval of MELT-300, the Company shall pay an aggregate amount in cash of approximately $87,200,000. | | | | | | | | | | Upon receipt of pass-through status awarded and J-Code (or any other similar designation) issued by the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services for MELT-300 the Company shall issue an aggregate of approximately 1,112,000 shares of the Companys common stock. | | | | | | | | | | Upon achievement of various annual net sales milestones ranging from $100,000,000 to $1,000,000,000 per year, the Company shall make one-time cash payments that in the aggregate may total up to approximately $260,000,000 if all annual net sales milestones are achieved. | | The regulatory and commercial milestones must be achieved on or before December 31, 2035. The Company accounted for the Melt transaction as an asset acquisition and expensed the one-time upfront consideration of $4,358,000 and other costs of $4,092,000 associated with the transaction as acquired IPR&D. **NOTE 6. INVESTMENT IN SURFACE OPHTHALMICS, INC. AND AGREEMENTS - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS** The Company entered into an asset purchase and license agreement with Surface in 2017 and amended it in April 2018 (the Surface License Agreements). Pursuant to the terms of the Surface License Agreements, the Company assigned and licensed to Surface certain intellectual property and related rights associated with Surfaces drug candidates (collectively, the Surface Products). Surface is required to make mid-single digit royalty payments to the Company on net sales of the Surface Products while any patent rights remain outstanding The Company has not received any royalties related to the Surface License Agreements.

The Company determined that the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows attributable to these intangible assets was less than their carrying value and that an impairment charge was required. Accordingly, the Company calculated the estimated fair value of the intangible assets based on the present value of the expected cash flows over their estimated lives. The impairment amount was calculated by deducting the present value of the expected cash flows from the carrying value. Significant estimates and assumptions used by the Company included sales and expense growth rates, and discounted projected cash flows. The estimates and assumptions used in the Companys assessment represent a Level 3 measurement because they are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the Companys own assumptions in measuring fair value. The assumptions used in the impairment analysis are inherently subject to uncertainty and, therefore, changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on the concluded fair value. | F-28 | | | | | Amortization expense for intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were as follows: SCHEDULE OF AMORTIZATION EXPENSES FOR INTANGIBLE ASSETS | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | | | | For the Years Ended December 31, | | | | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | | Patents | | $ | 12,000 | | | $ | 56,000 | | | $ | 84,000 | | | | Licenses | | | 3,000 | | | | 35,000 | | | | 7,000 | | | | Acquired product rights | | | 16,962,000 | | | | 11,669,000 | | | | 9,937,000 | | | | Customer relationships | | | 13,000 | | | | 22,000 | | | | 54,000 | | | | Trade name | | | 1,000 | | | | 1,000 | | | | - | | | | Amortization expense of intangible assets | | $ | 16,991,000 | | | $ | 11,783,000 | | | $ | 10,082,000 | | | Estimated future amortization expense for the Companys intangible assets at December 31, 2025 is as follows: SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED FUTURE AMORTIZATION EXPENSE | Years ending December 31, | | | | | | 2026 | | $ | 16,712,000 | | | | 2027 | | | 16,421,000 | | | | 2028 | | | 16,014,000 | | | | 2029 | | | 16,212,000 | | | | 2030 | | | 15,188,000 | | | | Thereafter | | | 94,299,000 | | | | Intangible assets | | $ | 174,846,000 | | | In connection with the license agreement with Novaliq, the Company recognized a commercial milestone of $7,000,000 related to sales of VEVYE during 2025.

The 2030 Notes offering resulted in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $242,748,000 after deducting underwriting discounts of $5,625,000 and commissions and other offering expenses of $1,627,000. The 2030 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The 2030 Notes are effectively subordinated to any of the Companys secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The 2030 Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company, subject to certain exceptions. The 2030 Notes bear interest at the rate of 8.625% per annum. Interest on the 2030 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing March 15, 2026.

The Indenture governing the 2030 Notes contains customary high-yield restrictive covenants including the payment of dividends, subject to specified exceptions, and requires an offer to repurchase the Notes upon the occurrence of certain change of control triggering events. The Company may redeem all or part of the 2030 Notes prior to September 15, 2027, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus a make-whole premium, as described in the indenture. The Company may redeem all or part of the 2030 Notes on or after September 15, 2027 at the applicable redemption prices described in the indenture. The Company may also redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes at any time prior to September 15, 2027, at a redemption price equal to 108.625% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings. If a change in control triggering event occurs, unless the Company has previously exercised or substantially concurrently exercise its optional redemption right, the Company will be required to offer to repurchase the 2030 Notes from holders at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. Interest expense related to the 2030 Notes totaled $6,934,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, and included the amortization of debt issuance costs and discount of $436,000.

Including through subsequent amendments to the Oaktree Loan, the Company had drawn down a total principal loan amount of $107,500,000. The Oaktree Loan carried an interest rate equal to SOFR plus 6.5% per annum, and included an exit fee equal to 3.5% of the aggregate principal amount owed, payable at maturity. In addition to the exit fee, the Oaktree Loan required a make-whole premium to be paid on early principal amount payments prior to its maturity in January 2026. The exit fee of $3,763,000 was recorded as a debt discount and recognized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the loan. In September 2025, the Company repaid the $107,500,000 principal balance owed under the Oaktree Loan and all accrued interest as of the date the loan was repaid. In connection with the loan repayment, the Company agreed to pay an exit fee and a make-whole premium to Oaktree.

During 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized no tax benefit from stock options exercised during these periods. During the year ended December 31, 2025, 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 Companys 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 10 years. Vesting terms for options granted to employees during the year ended December 31, 2025 generally included one of the following vesting schedules: 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; and 100% of the shares subject to the option vest on a quarterly basis in equal installments 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 Company calculates expected volatility based solely on the historical volatilities of the common stock of the Company. The expected term of options granted 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 | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | | Weighted-average fair value of options granted | | $ | 23.92 | | | $ | 11.46 | | | $ | 11.49 | | | | Expected terms (in years) | | | 6.11 | | | | 6.11 | | | | 6.11 | | | | Expected volatility | | | 71 | % | | | 68 73 | % | | | 68 70 | % | | | Risk-free interest rate | | | 3.84 4.53 | % | | | 3.72 4.48 | % | | | 3.59 4.80 | % | | | Dividend yield | | | - | | | | - | | | | - | | | The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2025: SCHEDULE OF STOCK OPTION OUTSTANDING AND EXERCISABLE | | | | | Options Outstanding | | | Options Exercisable | | | | Range of Exercise Price | | | Number Outstanding | | | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life in Years | | | Weighted Average Exercise Price | | | Number Exercisable | | | Weighted Average Exercise Price | | | | $ | 1.47 - 1.70 | | | | 31,000 | | | | 0.78 | | | $ | 1.68 | | | | 31,000 | | | $ | 1.68 | | | | $ | 1.73 - 1.73 | | | | 250,000 | | | | 2.00 | | | $ | 1.73 | | | | 250,000 | | | $ | 1.73 | | | | $ | 2.23 - 2.23 | | | | 270,000 | | | | 1.09 | | | $ | 2.23 | | | | 270,000 | | | $ | 2.23 | | | | $ | 2.40 - 5.72 | | | | 113,850 | | | | 3.05 | | | $ | 5.05 | | | | 113,850 | | | $ | 5.05 | | | | $ | 6.30 | | | | 285,000 | | | | 2.79 | | | $ | 6.30 | | | | 285,000 | | | $ | 6.30 | | | | $ | 6.75 - 6.85 | | | | 28,899 | | | | 6.53 | | | $ | 6.77 | | | | 22,274 | | | $ | 6.77 | | | | $ | 7.30 | | | | 274,500 | | | | 4.01 | | | $ | 7.30 | | | | 274,500 | | | $ | 7.30 | | | | $ | 7.60 - 30.41 | | | | 183,823 | | | | 7.67 | | | $ | 14.98 | | | | 88,996 | | | $ | 10.81 | | | | $ | 30.77 - 45.64 | | | | 167,000 | | | | 9.44 | | | $ | 36.76 | | | | 5,500 | | | $ | 42.23 | | | | $ | 48.18 | | | | 33,000 | | | | 9.75 | | | $ | 48.18 | | | | - | | | $ | - | | | | $ | 1.47 - 48.18 | | | | 1,637,072 | | | | 4.01 | | | $ | 9.86 | | | | 1,341,120 | | | $ | 5.08 | | | As of December 31, 2025, there was approximately $6,753,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options granted under the Plan.

During 2025, $36,069,000 federal net operating loss carryforwards were acquired from Melt Pharmaceuticals and are subject to a Section 382 limitation. In addition, the Company has state net operating loss carryforwards of $75,332,000, of which $74,546,000 will begin to expire in 2032 and the remainder will be carried forward indefinitely. During 2025, $49,302,000 of state net operating loss carryforwards were acquired from Melt Pharmaceuticals and are subject to Section 382 limitations. Additionally, the Company has state research and development credit carryforwards of $100,000. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future taxable income, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded for the amount of the net deferred tax assets. A rollforward of the valuation allowance is as follows: SCHEDULE OF VALUATION ALLOWANCE | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Beginning balance | | $ | 17,610,000 | | | $ | 15,631,000 | | | | Increases to the valuation allowance | | | 11,637,000 | | | | 1,979,000 | | | | Decreases to the valuation allowance | | | - | | | | - | | | | Ending balance | | $ | 29,247,000 | | | $ | 17,610,000 | | | During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not pay any Federal income tax and paid $93,000 of state income taxes, as follows: SCHEDULE OF STATE INCOME TAX PAID | | | | | | | | Tennessee | | $ | 57,000 | | | | Colorado | | | 17,000 | | | | New Jersey | | | 10,000 | | | | Massachusetts | | | 8,000 | | | | Other | | | 1,000 | | | | State income taxes paid | | $ | 93,000 | | | | F-39 | | | | | As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had approximately $307,000 and $2,858,000, respectively of unrecognized tax benefits which, if fully recognized, would decrease its effective tax rate. Interest or penalties of $13,000 and $69,000 were accrued relating to unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. A reconciliation of the change in the unrecognized tax benefits balance for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 is as follows: SCHEDULE OF UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS | | | 2025 | | | 2024 | | | | Beginning balance | | $ | 2,858,000 | | | $ | 2,822,000 | | | | Additions for tax positions related to current year | | | 101,000 | | | | 5,000 | | | | Additions (reductions) for tax positions related to prior years | | | (2,522,000 | ) | | | 32,000 | | | | Reductions to tax positions related to lapse of statute | | | (130,000 | ) | | | - | | | | Ending balance | | $ | 307,000 | | | $ | 2,858,000 | | | **NOTE 17. EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN** The Company has established an employee savings plan pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, effective January 1, 2014. The plan allows participating employees to deposit into tax deferred investment accounts up to 100% of their salary, subject to annual limits. The Company makes certain matching contributions to the plan in amounts up to 4% of the participants annual cash compensation, subject to annual limits. The Company contributed approximately $1,359,000, $953,000 and $594,000 to the plan during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. **NOTE 18. 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. See also Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors*.*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 Companys 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 face 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 these matters (whether discussed in this footnote or not) currently pending may have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Legal costs incurred for loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. | F-40 | | | | | Certain recent developments concerning the Companys legal proceedings it believes are or were material to its business and other matters are discussed below: *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). Since July 2021, the complaint had been amended and OSRX added counterclaims alleging ImprimisRx, LLC was violating the Lanham Act with false advertising. The Court granted cross motions for summary judgment on each partys Lanham Act claims, thus leaving only ImprimisRx, LLCs copyright infringement, trademark infringement, and unfair competition claims for trial. Following a jury trial in November 2024, a jury found OSRX acted with malice, fraud, or oppression, willfully engaging in trademark infringement and unfair competition under California and federal law, and ImprimisRx, LLC received a $34,900,000 jury verdict award, which included $20,400,000 in punitive damages and $14,500,000 in actual damages. An amended final judgment was entered on October 1, 2025, which reduced the OSRX liability to $11,249,000, plus post-judgment interest, and required OSRX to cease use of certain trademarks. OSRX filed notice of appeal on October 9, 2025. No collection activity is allowed during the appeal. The Company will vigorously pursue its interest during the appeal process however, due to uncertainty regarding the probability of collection, the Company has not recognized any amounts associated with the judgment during the year ended December 31, 2025. **Product and Professional Liability** Product and professional liability litigation represents an inherent risk to all firms in the pharmaceutical and pharmacy industry. The Company utilizes 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 Companys charter documents, the Company generally enters into separate indemnification agreements with each of the Companys 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 individuals status or service as the Companys 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 Companys 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 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. | F-41 | | | | | During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, $9,526,000, $4,126,000 and $647,000, respectively, were incurred under these agreements as royalty expenses. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, $7,000,000 and $37,000,000, respectively, was incurred under these agreements related to upfront and milestone payments under these agreements. As of December 31, 2025, the remaining contingent consideration payable pursuant to these agreements were not considered payable as the contingency is not resolved and therefore, no amount was accrued related to these contingent obligations during the year ended December 31, 2025. **Contract Manufacturing** The Company has 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 $10,723,000 related to contract manufacturing agreements for the year ended December 31, 2026. **NOTE 19. SEGMENTS AND CONCENTRATIONS** The chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM does not review segment assets when assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The Company reports on two reportable segments which were generally determined based on the decision-making structure of the Company and the grouping of similar products and services: Branded and ImprimisRx. | | | The Branded segment includes activities of the Companys FDA approved ophthalmology pharmaceutical products, including the out-licensing of rights to certain of our branded products. | | | | | | | | | | The ImprimisRx segment represents activities in the Companys ophthalmology-focused pharmaceutical compounding business. | | The CODM evaluates segment performance and makes resource-allocation decisions primarily on the basis of segment contribution. Segment contribution is the internal measure of profitability that the CODM reviews on a regular basis to assess the operational performance of each segment, determine the appropriate level of sales and marketing investments, evaluate pricing decisions, and prioritize capital deployment among branded product initiatives and the ImprimisRx compounding operations. Segment contribution for the segments represents net revenues less cost of sales, certain general and administrative expenses, selling and marketing expenses, and research and development expenses. The Company does not evaluate the following items at the segment level: | | | Selling, general and administrative expenses that result from shared infrastructure, including certain expenses associated with legal matters, public company costs (e.g. investor relations), Board of Directors and principal executive officers and other like shared expenses. | | | | | | | | | | Operating expenses within selling, general and administrative expenses that result from the impact of corporate initiatives. Corporate initiatives primarily include integration, restructuring, acquisition and other shared costs. | | | | | | | | | | Other select revenues and operating expenses that are not segment specific including research and development expenses, amortization, and asset sales and impairments, net as not all such information has been accounted for at the segment level, or such information has not been used by all segments. | | | F-42 | | | | | Segment net revenues, segment operating expenses and segment contribution information consisted of the following: SCHEDULE OF SEGMENT NET REVENUES | | | Branded | | | ImprimisRx | | | Consolidated | | | | | | Year Ended December 31, 2025 | | | | | | Branded | | | ImprimisRx | | | Consolidated | | | | Product sales, net | | $ | 195,362,000 | | | $ | 76,547,000 | | | $ | 271,909,000 | | | | Other revenues | | | 394,000 | | | | -

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS** In January 2026, the Company and Santen agreed to amend the Santen Agreements. Pursuant to the amendment, the parties agreed to a full and final settlement of all contingent milestone obligations related to specified manufacturing-related events for the Santen Products in exchange for a one-time lump sum payment by the Company of $7,000,000. Following this payment, no further milestone payments will be due under the Santen Agreements. The Company expects to capitalize this payment as an intangible asset within acquired product rights in its consolidated balance sheet in 2026. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, options to purchase 546 shares of common stock were exercised at a weighted-average exercise price of $7.51 per share. | F-44 | |
