NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

Our accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements. In our opinion, such financial statements include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair statement of the financial information included herein in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. The balance sheet at December 31, 2012 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments consist primarily of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short-term debt. The carrying amount of accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturity of such instruments and are considered Level 1 assets under the fair value hierarchy. Interest rates that are currently available to us for issuance of short and long-term debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of our short and long-term debt and would be considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING

PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)

 

Fair Value of Financial Measurements

 

We categorize our assets and liabilities that are valued at fair value on a recurring basis into a three-level fair value hierarchy as defined by Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Assets and liabilities recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value are categorized based on a hierarchy of inputs, as follows:

 

	Level 1		unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
	Level 2		quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and
	Level 3		unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had no assets or liabilities that were valued at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development, or R&D, expenses include internal R&D activities, external contract research organization, or CRO, services and their clinical research sites, and other activities. Internal R&D activity expenses include laboratory supplies, salaries, benefits, and non-cash share-based compensation expenses. CRO activity expenses include preclinical laboratory experiments and clinical trial studies. Other activity expenses include regulatory consulting, and regulatory legal counsel. Internal R&D activities and other activity expenses are charged to operations as incurred. We make payments to CROs based on agreed upon terms which may include payments in advance of a study starting date. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities are expensed when the activity has been performed or when the goods have been received rather than when the payment is made. Advance payments to be expensed in future R&D activities were $1,940,675 and $189,375 at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. We review and accrue CRO expenses and clinical trial study expenses based on services performed and rely on estimates of those costs applicable to the stage of completion of a study as provided by CRO. Accrued CRO costs are subject to revisions as such studies progress to completion. Revisions are charged to expense in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known.

 

Earnings Per Share

 

We calculate earnings per share, or EPS, in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires the computation and disclosure of two EPS amounts, basic and diluted. We compute basic EPS based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. We compute diluted EPS based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Such potentially dilutive common

Earnings Per Share (continued)

 

shares consist of stock options and warrants. Potentially dilutive common shares totaling 29,074,292 and 23,173,336 at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive due to the net loss reported by us.

 

Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

On July 18, 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update or ASU, No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit when a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this ASU provide guidance on the financial statements presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. An unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward with certain exceptions, in which case such an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability. The amendments in this ASU do not require new recurring disclosures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments in ASU No. 2013-11 are not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 8 – NOTES PAYABLE

 

Issuance and Payment of Multiple Advance Revolving Credit Note

 

On January 31, 2013, we entered into a business loan agreement with Plato and Associates, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, or Plato, for a Multiple Advance Revolving Credit Note, or the Plato Note. The Plato Note allows us to draw down funding up to the $10 million maximum principal amount, at a stated interest rate of 6% per annum. Plato may make advances to us from time to time under the Plato Note at our request, which advances will be of a revolving nature and may be made, repaid, and made from time to time. Interest payments will be due and payable on the tenth day following the end of each calendar quarter in which any interest is accrued and unpaid, commencing on April 10, 2013, and the principal balance outstanding under the Plato Note, together with all accrued interest and other amounts payable under the Plato Note, if any, will be due and payable on February 24, 2014. The Plato Note is secured by substantially all of our assets. On each of February 25 and March 13, 2013, $200,000 was drawn against the Plato Note. On March 21, 2013, we repaid $401,085, including accrued interest. As of September 30, 2013, there was no balance outstanding under the Plato Note.

 

As additional consideration for the Plato Note, we issued Plato a warrant to purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price $3.20 per share (see NOTE 9 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY for more details).

 

Borrowing Under Amended Bank LOC

 

In February 2013, we borrowed $100,000, from First United Bank under the Amended Bank LOC (as defined in NOTE 11 – RELATED PARTIES). The Amended Bank LOC required a personal guarantee and cash collateral limited to $100,000 which was provided by Reich Family Limited Partnership, or Reich Family LP, an entity controlled by Mitchell Krassan, an officer of our company. On April 25, 2013, we paid the principal and interest due under the Amended Bank LOC of $100,735. On May 1, 2013, the Amended Bank LOC expired and was not renewed. Accordingly, the personal guarantee was canceled and the cash collateral was refunded to Reich Family LP.

On February 24, 2012, we issued the February 2012 Notes to an individual and an entity, or the Parties, both of which are our stockholders, in the principal base amounts of $1,358,014 and $1,357,110, respectively, and granted warrants for the purchase in the aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock, or the February Warrants, pursuant to the terms of a note purchase agreement, also dated February 24, 2012. As consideration for the February 2012 Notes and the February Warrants, we received an aggregate of $1,000,000 of new funding from the Parties and the Parties surrendered certain promissory notes previously issued by us in the aggregate amount of $1,700,000, plus accrued interest of $15,124. Under the February 2012 Notes, the Parties loaned us an additional $3,000,000 during March, April, and May 2012.

As discussed below in Issuance and Payment of June 2012 Notes, the remaining balance of $2,691,847 of the February 2012 Notes was modified on June 19, 2012 through the issuance of secured promissory notes, or the June 2012 Notes, (see NOTE 9 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY, Warrants Issued in Connection with Debt, for more details).

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of the Company

The valuation methodology used to determine the fair value of our warrants is the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, or Black-Scholes Model, an acceptable model in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of a number of assumptions, including volatility of the stock price, the risk-free interest rate and the term of the warrant.

 

Warrants Issued in Connection with Debt

 

On January 31, 2013, we granted a warrant for the purchase of 1,250,000 shares of our common stock in connection with the issuance of the Plato Note, or the Plato Warrant, (see NOTE 8 – NOTES PAYABLE, Issuance and Payment of Multiple Advance Revolving Credit Note). The Plato Warrant has an exercise price of $3.20 per share. The Plato Warrant vested on October 31, 2013 and may be exercised prior to its expiration on January 31, 2019. The Plato Warrant, with a fair value of approximately $1,711,956, was valued on the date of the grant using a term of six years; a volatility of 44.29%; risk free rate of 0.88%; and a dividend yield of 0%. At September 30, 2013, $656,008 was reported as deferred financing costs included in other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet and is being amortized over the life of the Plato Note. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, $1,055,948 was recorded as financing costs on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Warrants Issued in Connection with Debt (continued)

 

On June 19, 2012, we granted warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 7,000,000 shares of our common stock in connection with the issuance of the June 2012 Notes, or the June 2012 Warrants, (see NOTE 8 – NOTES PAYABLE, Issuance and Payment of June 2012 Notes). Of the June 2012 Warrants issued, 6,000,000 are exercisable at $2.00 per share and 1,000,000 are exercisable at $3.00 per share. The fair value of the June 2012 Warrants of $9,424,982 was determined by using the Black-Scholes Model on the date of the grant using a term of 5 years; a volatility of 44.64%; risk free rate of 0.75%; and a dividend yield of 0%. The relative fair value of the June 2012 Warrants of $1,649,890 was determined by using the relative fair value calculation method on the date of the grant. As a result of the repayment of the associated debt on March 21, 2013, we expensed the remaining unamortized debt discount of $885,709 at the time of the repayment.

 

On February 24, 2012, we issued warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 5,685,300 shares of our common stock in connection with the modification of certain existing promissory notes, or the Modification Warrants, and warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 3,314,700 shares of our common stock in connection with the issuance of the February 2012 Notes or the February 2012 Warrants (see NOTE 8 – NOTES PAYABLE, Issuance and Settlement of February 2012 Notes). Both the Modification Warrants and the February 2012 Warrants are exercisable at $0.38 per share. The Modification Warrants’ fair value of $10,505,247 and the February 2012 Warrants’ fair value of $6,124,873 was determined by using the Black-Scholes Model on the date of the grant using a term of 5 years; a volatility of 44.5%; risk free rate of 0.89%; and a dividend yield of 0%. We recorded the fair value of the Modification Warrants as part of the loss on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The relative fair value of the February 2012 Warrants of $859,647 was recorded as debt discount. As a result of the surrender of the February 2012 Notes on June 19, 2012, we expensed the remaining unamortized debt discount.

 

Warrants Issued for Services

 

On May 7, 2013, we entered into a consulting agreement, or the Agreement, with Sancilio & Company, Inc., or SCI, to develop drug platforms to be used in hormone replacement drug products, or the Drug Products. These services include support of our efforts to successfully obtain U.S. Federal Drug Administration, or FDA, approval for the Drug Products, including a vaginal capsule for the treatment of vulvar and vaginal atrophy, or VVA. In connection with the Agreement, SCI agreed to forfeit its rights to receive warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 833,000 shares of our common stock that were to be issued pursuant to the terms of a prior consulting agreement dated May 17, 2012.

		Number of Shares Under Company Warrants				Weighted Average Exercise Price				Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life in Years				Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Balance at December 31, 2012			12,193,499			$	1.63				4.8			$	17,971,994

Stock Options

 

On September 25, 2009, our board of directors approved the 2009 Long Term Incentive Compensation Plan, or the LTIP, to provide financial incentives to our employees, members of the Board, and our advisers and consultants who are able to contribute towards the creation of or who have created stockholder value by providing them stock options and other stock and cash incentives, or the Awards. The Awards available under the LTIP consist of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock, performance units, EVA awards, and other stock or cash awards

Stock Options (continued)

 

as described in the LTIP. There are 25,000,000 shares authorized for issuance under the LTIP. Under the LTIP, non-qualified stock options for the purchase of an aggregate of 13,155,793 shares of our common stock were outstanding at September 30, 2013.

 

On February 23, 2012, our board adopted the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, or the 2012 SOP. The 2012 SOP was designed to serve as an incentive for retaining qualified and competent key employees, officers and directors, and certain consultants and advisors. There are 10,000,000 shares authorized for issuance under the 2012 SOP. Non-qualified stock options for the purchase of an aggregate of 1,625,000 shares of our common stock were outstanding at September 30, 2013.

 

The valuation methodology used to determine the fair value of the stock options is the Black-Scholes Model. The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected life of the stock options. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes Model during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are set forth in the table below.

 

		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013				Year Ended December 31, 2012
Risk-free interest rate			0.65-1.71	%			0.61-2.23	%
Volatility			33.35-45.76	%			40.77-46.01	%
Term (in years)			5-6.25				5-6.25
Dividend yield			0.00	%			0.00	%

 

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the expected life. Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the term of the award. Our estimated volatility is an average of the historical volatility of the stock prices of our peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available. Our calculation of estimated volatility is based on historical stock prices over a period equal to the term of the awards. We used the historical volatility of our peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data on our stock price. The average expected life is based on the contractual term of the option using the simplified method.

 

On September 4, 2013, we issued a 10-year stock option to a consultant for the purchase of an aggregate of 75,000 shares with an exercise price of $2.20. All of the shares available under the stock option will vest on the first anniversary of issuance.

The Black Scholes method is used to calculate the fair value of individual stock option grants on their issue date. The weighted-average issue date fair value of stock options issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $1.06.

 

At September 30, 2013, we had stock options outstanding with exercise prices ranging from $0.10 to $3.40 per share.

 

Share-based compensation expense for stock options recognized in our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 ($1,962,673 and $1,004,472, respectively) is based on awards vested and was estimated without forfeitures. ASC 718-10 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates.

 

At September 30, 2013, total unrecognized estimated compensation expense related to non-vested stock options issued prior to that date was approximately $3,521,000 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.30 years. No tax benefit was realized due to a continued pattern of operating losses.

 

NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES

 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. We do not expect to pay any significant federal or state income tax for 2013 as a result of (i) the losses recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, (ii) additional losses expected for the remainder of 2013, and/or (iii) net operating loss carry forwards from prior years. Accounting standards require the consideration of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it is "more likely than not" that some component or all of the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of September 30, 2013, we maintain a full valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets. Based on these requirements, no provision or benefit for income taxes has been recorded. There were no recorded unrecognized tax benefits at the end of the reporting period.

Loan Guaranty

 

In March 2011, VitaMed entered into a Business Loan Agreement and Promissory Note for a $300,000 bank line of credit, or the Bank LOC, for which the bank required personal guarantees and cash collateral. Personal guarantees and cash collateral limited to $100,000 each were provided by Robert Finizio and John Milligan, officers of VitaMed, and by Reich Family LP, an entity controlled by Mitchell Krassan, also an officer of VitaMed. The Bank LOC accrued interest at the rate of 3.02% per annum based on a year of 360 days and was due on March 1, 2012. On March 19, 2012, the bank and VitaMed negotiated a one year extension to the Bank LOC and a subsequent 2-month extension until May 1, 2013.

 

In consideration for the personal guarantees and cash collateral, we issued warrants for an aggregate of 613,713 shares. On November 13, 2012, we entered into an amendment with the bank to reduce the Bank LOC to $100,000, or the Amended Bank LOC. As part of the Amended Bank LOC, the personal guarantees and cash collateral for Mr. Finizio and Mr. Milligan were released. In accordance with the terms of the warrants, the warrants previously granted to Mr. Finizio and Mr. Milligan were amended to reflect the amount vested prior to the date of the Amended Bank LOC (179,000 each). At September 30, 2013, an aggregate of 562,571 warrants related to this loan guaranty were vested.

 

In February 2013, we borrowed $100,000 under the Amended Bank LOC. The Amended Bank LOC required a personal guarantee and cash collateral limited to $100,000 which was provided by Reich Family LP. On April 25, 2013, we paid the principal and interest due under the Amended Bank LOC of $100,735. On May 1, 2013, the Amended Bank LOC expired and was not renewed. Accordingly, the personal guarantee was canceled and the cash collateral was returned to Reich Family LP

 

Lock-Up Agreements

 

As required by the terms of the merger agreement with VitaMed dated July 18, 2011, we entered into Lock-Up Agreements, or the Agreements, with stockholders covering the aggregate of 70,000,000 shares of our common stock issued pursuant to this merger or reserved for issuance pursuant to stock options and warrants. Each stockholder agreed that from the date of the Agreements until 18 months thereafter, or the Lock-Up Period, they would not make or cause any sale of our common stock. After the completion of the Lock-Up Period, each stockholder agreed not to sell or dispose of more than 2.5% of their aggregate common stock or shares reserved for issuance under stock options and warrants per quarter over the following 12-month period, or the Dribble Out Period. Upon the completion of the Dribble Out Period, the Agreements will terminate.

Aceto Corporation

 

On November 13, 2012, Aceto Corporation filed a lawsuit against TherapeuticsMD and BocaGreen in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida seeking to enjoin us from using the Quatrefolic product and trademarks, among other things. We filed a motion to dismiss on January 2, 2013, which was granted by the court on July 17, 2013, based on Aceto’s failure to join the trademark owner, Gnosis, S.p.A. as a party plaintiff. On August 19, 2013, Aceto filed an amended complaint which purported to add Gnosis S.p.A. as an involuntary plaintiff. We have not yet filed a response to that amended complaint. As of September 11, 2013, the parties to this lawsuit reached a tentative settlement agreement, which is subject to and awaiting approval by Gnosis S.p.A. Based on our initial assessment of currently available information, we believe that the case is without merit and, as a result, should not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

General

 

The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe to be relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to the financial statements, which are included in this report. This information should also be read in conjunction with the information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the Commission or the SEC, on March 12, 2013, including the audited financial statements and notes included therein. The reported results will not necessarily reflect future results of operations or financial condition.

 

In addition, this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or the Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements include statements relating to our focus, goals, and intentions, our strategy for commercializing our proposed products, our belief in the advantages of our current line of products and proposed products over competitive products, our belief in the attributes and benefits of our proposed products, clinical development of our products, our research and development expenditures, and our belief that we have sufficient available cash and cash equivalents to fund our operations. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms "we," "us," "our," "TherapeuticsMD," or "our company" refer to TherapeuticsMD, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and unless specified otherwise, include our wholly owned subsidiaries, vitaMedMD, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or VitaMed, and BocaGreenMD, Inc., a Nevada corporation, or BocaGreen.

 

Overview

 

We are a women’s healthcare product company focused on creating and commercializing products targeted exclusively for women. We currently manufacture and distribute branded and generic prescription prenatal vitamins as well as over-the-counter vitamins and cosmetics. We are currently focused on conducting the clinical trials necessary for regulatory approval and commercialization of advanced hormone therapy pharmaceutical products designed to alleviate the symptoms of and reduce the health risks resulting from menopause-related hormone deficiencies, including hot flashes, osteoporosis, and vaginal dryness. We are developing these proposed hormone therapy products, which contain estradiol and progesterone alone or in combination, with the aim of providing equivalent efficacy at lower doses, thereby enabling an enhanced side effect profile compared with competing products.

 

We intend to leverage and grow our current marketing and sales organization to commercialize our proposed products in the United States assuming the successful completion of the U.S. Federal and Drug Administration, or FDA, regulatory process. We are also evaluating various other indications for our hormone technology, including oral contraception, treatment of preterm birth, and premature ovarian failure.

 

The hormone therapy market includes two major components: an FDA-approved drug market and a non-FDA approved drug market supplied by compounding pharmacies. We believe the FDA-approved products are easily measured and monitored, while non-FDA approved hormone therapy drug products, typically referred to as bioidenticals when produced by compounding pharmacies, are sold by compounding pharmacies and not monitored or easily measured. Our phase 3 trials are intended to establish an indication of the safety and efficacy of our proposed bioidentical products at specific dosage levels. We intend our proposed hormone therapy products, if approved, to provide an alternative to the non-FDA approved compounded bioidentical market based on our belief that our proposed products will offer advantages in terms of proven safety, efficacy, and stability, lower patient cost as a result of insurance coverage, and improved access as a result of availability from major retail pharmacy chains rather than custom order or formulation by individual compounders.

 

 

As we continue the clinical development of our proposed hormone therapy products, we continue to market our prescription and over-the-counter dietary supplement and cosmetic product lines, consisting of prenatal vitamins, iron supplements, vitamin D supplements, natural menopause relief products, and cosmetic stretch mark creams under our VitaMed brand name and duplicate formulations of our prescription prenatal vitamins products, also referred to as “generic” formulations, under our BocaGreen brand name. All of our prenatal vitamins are gluten-, sugar-, and lactose-free. We believe our product attributes result in greater consumer acceptance and satisfaction than competitive products while offering the highest quality and patented ingredients.

 

Our sales model focuses on the “4Ps”: patient, provider, pharmacist, and payor. We market and sell our current dietary supplement and cosmetic products primarily through a direct national sales force of approximately 30 full-time professionals that calls on healthcare providers in the obstetrics and gynecologic market space as well as through our website directly to consumers. In addition, our products allow healthcare providers to offer an alternative to patients to meet their individual nutritional and financial requirements related to co-payment and cost-of-care considerations and help patients realize cost savings over competing products. We also believe that our combination of branded, generic, and over-the-counter lines offers physicians, women, and payors cost-effective alternatives for top-quality care. We supply our prescription dietary supplement products to consumers through retail pharmacies. We market our over-the-counter products either directly to consumers via our website and phone sales followed by home shipment or through physicians who then re-sell them to their patients. Our fully staffed customer care center uses current customer relationship management software to respond to healthcare providers, pharmacies, and consumers via incoming and outgoing telephone calls, e-mails, and live-chat. We also facilitate repeat customer orders for our non-prescription products through our website’s auto-ship feature.

 

Our common stock began trading on the NYSE MKT on April 23, 2013 under the symbol “TXMD” and was previously listed on the OTCQB. We maintain the following websites at www.therapeuticsmd.com, www.vitamedmd.com, www.vitamedmdrx.com, and www.bocagreenmd.com.

 

Research and Development

 

Overview

 

We obtained U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, acceptance of our Investigational New Drug, or IND, applications to conduct clinical trials for four of our proposed products: TX 12-001-HR, TX 12-002-HR, TX 12-003-HR, and TX 12-004-HR. We are currently conducting a phase 3 clinical trial for TX 12-001-HR; we currently intend to begin phase 3 clinical trials for TX 12-002-HR at the end of 2013; and we currently intend to begin phase 3 clinical trials for TX 12-004-HR in the second quarter of 2014. We have no current plans for clinical trials for TX 12-003-HR.

 

On September 5, 2013, we announced the enrollment and dosing of the first patient in the REPLENISH Trial, a phase 3 clinical trial designed to measure the safety and effectiveness of TX 12-001-HR in treating the symptoms of menopause and protecting the endometrium. We are also currently conducting formulation development of our proposed combination estradiol and progesterone product in a topical cream form.

 

TX 12-001-HR is a combination estradiol and progesterone drug candidate under development for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms due to menopause, including hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, and vaginal dryness, for post-menopausal women with an intact uterus. The product will be chemically identical to the hormones that naturally occur in a woman’s body, namely estradiol and progesterone, and would be studied as a continuous-combined regimen (where the combination of estrogen and progesterone are taken together in one product daily). If approved by the FDA, we believe this would represent the first time a combination product of these bioidentical hormones would be approved for use in a single combined product.

 

 

TX 12-002-HR is a natural progesterone formulation without the potentially allergenic component of peanut oil. The product would be chemically identical to the hormones that naturally occur in a woman’s body. We believe it would be similarly effective to traditional treatments, but at lower dosages.

  

On May 10, 2013, we submitted an IND application to conduct clinical trials for TX 12-004-HR, which was accepted by the FDA on June 9, 2013. On August 12, 2013, we announced that we initiated a phase 1 clinical trial for TX 12-004-HR in vulvar and vaginal atrophy, or VVA, designed to measure the effect of TX 12-004-HR on certain clinical endpoints, including a study candidate’s pH levels, vaginal cytology, and the patient’s most bothersome symptom of VVA, out of the symptoms identified in FDA guidance. The study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a 10µg dose of TX 12-004-HR versus placebo over a two-week period in 48 postmenopausal women with symptoms of VVA. On October 22, 2013, we announced results of the phase 1 pilot study, which showed statistically significant differences between the treatment and placebo groups, with the treatment group showing changes in Maturation index (cell composition) and pH more closely resembling that found in premenopausal women with healthy, non-atrophied vaginal tissue.

 

TX 12-004-HR is a proposed suppository estradiol product for the treatment of VVA in post-menopausal women with vaginal linings that do not receive enough estrogen. We believe our proposed product will be as effective as the traditional treatments for VVA and we believe it will have an added advantage of simple, easier to use dosage form versus traditional VVA treatments.

 

Research and Development Expenses

 

A significant portion of our operating expenses to date have been incurred in research and development activities. Research and development expenses relate primarily to the discovery and development of our drug products. Our business model is dependent upon our company continuing to conduct a significant amount of research and development. Until one of our drug products receives IND approval from the FDA products are listed as Other Research and Development cost. Our research and development expenses consist primarily of: expenses incurred under agreements with contract research organizations, or CROs, investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials and a substantial portion of our preclinical studies; employee-related expenses, which include salaries and benefits, and non-cash share-based compensation; the cost of developing our chemistry, manufacturing and controls capabilities, or CMC, and acquiring clinical trial materials; costs associated with other research activities and regulatory approvals.

  

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. We make payments to the CROs based on agreed upon terms and may include payments in advance of a study starting date. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities are expensed when the activity has been performed or when the goods have been received rather than when the payment is made. Advance payments to be expensed in future R&D activities were $1,940,675 and 189,375, at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

 

 

The following table indicates our research and development expense by project/category for the periods indicated (in thousands):

 

		Three Months Ended September  30,								Nine Months Ended September  30,
		2013				2012				2013				2012
TX 12-001-HR		$	1,902			$	—			$	2,434			$	—
TX 12-002-HR			99				—				312				—
TX 12-004-HR			729				—				733				—
Other Research and Development			1,369				1,702				4,232				3,131
Total		$	4,099			$	1,702			$	7,711			$	3,131

  

Research and development expenditures will continue to be significant and will increase as we continue development of our drug products and advance the development of our proprietary pipeline of novel drug products. We expect to incur significant research and development costs as we develop our drug pipeline, complete the ongoing clinical trials of our drug products, conduct our planned phase 3 clinical trials, subject to receiving input from regulatory authorities, and prepare regulatory submissions.

 

The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to factors that include but are not limited to the following: per patient trial costs, the number of patients that participate in the trials; the number of sites included in the trials; the length of time each patient is enrolled in the trial; the number of doses that patients receive; the drop-out or discontinuation rates of patients; the amount of time required to recruit patients for the trial, the duration of patient follow-up; and the efficacy and safety profile of the drug candidate.

 

We base our expenses related to clinical trials on estimates that are based on our experience and estimates from CROs and other third parties.

 

Recent Events

 

Credit Line for $10 Million

 

On January 31, 2013, we entered into a business loan agreement with Plato and Associates, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, or Plato, for a Multiple Advance Revolving Credit Note, or the Plato Note. The Plato Note allows us to draw down funding up to the $10 million maximum principal amount, at a stated interest rate of 6% per annum. Plato may make advances to us from time to time under the Plato Note at our request, which advances will be of a revolving nature and may be made, repaid, and made from time to time. Interest payments will be due and payable on the tenth day following the end of each calendar quarter in which any interest is accrued and unpaid, commencing on April 10, 2013, and the principal balance outstanding under the Plato Note, together with all accrued interest and other amounts payable under the Plato Note, if any, will be due and payable on February 24, 2014. The Plato Note is secured by substantially all of our assets. On each of February 25 and March 13, 2013, $200,000 was drawn against the Plato Note. On March 21, 2013, we repaid $401,085, including accrued interest, and as of September 30, 2013, there was no balance outstanding under the Plato Note.

 

As additional consideration for the Plato Note, we issued Plato a warrant to purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price $3.20 per share. The warrant vested on October 31, 2013 and may be exercised at any time prior to its expiration on January 31, 2019.

 

 

New Lease Agreement

 

On July 1, 2013, we entered into a new lease for administrative office space located at 6800 Broken Sound Parkway in Boca Raton, Florida pursuant to a 63-month non-cancelable operating lease expiring on September 30, 2018. The lease stipulates, among other things, average base monthly rents of $30,149 (inclusive of estimated operating expenses) and sales tax, for a total future minimum payment over the life of the lease of $1,899,414.

 

Public Offering in September 2013

 

On September 25, 2013, we entered into an underwriting agreement, or the Stifel Underwriting Agreement, with Stifel, Nicolaus and Company, Incorporated, as representative of the underwriters named therein, or the September Underwriters, relating to the issuance and sale of 13,750,000 shares of our common stock. The price to the public in this offering was $2.40 per share and the September Underwriters agreed to purchase the shares from us pursuant to the Stifel Underwriting Agreement at a price of $2.232 per share. The net proceeds to us from this offering was approximately $30.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by us. The offering was made pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Commission on January 25, 2013, and deemed effective by the SEC on February 5, 2013, including prospectus supplements filed thereunder.

Revenues and Cost of Goods Sold

 

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased approximately $1,259,000, or approximately 121%, from the three months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was directly attributable to the (i) increase in the number of physicians writing prescriptions for our products, (ii) the increased productivity of our sales force, (iii) increase in the average net sales price of our product, and (iv) the new prescription products introduced in March, April, May and November 2012. Approximately 31% of this increase was due to an increase in the number of units sold and approximately 69% of the increase was related to product mix. Cost of goods sold increased approximately $342,000, or approximately 111% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue was 28% and 30% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our costs of individual products did not change for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared with the comparable period in 2012.

 

 

Operating Expenses

 

Our principal operating costs include the following items as a percentage of total operating expenses.

Operating expenses increased by approximately $4.2 million (91%) as a result of the following items:

 

			(000s)
Increase in human resource costs, including salaries, commissions, benefits and taxes		$	1,372
Increase in research and development costs			2,479
Increase in sales and marketing, excluding human resource costs			497
Increase in legal, accounting and consulting fees			163
Decrease in other operating expenses			(268	)
		$	4,243

  

Human resource costs, including salaries, commissions, benefits and taxes were higher as a result of increases in personnel between the two periods (approximately $837,000) and increases in non-cash compensation related to stock option awards (approximately $535,000).

 

Product research and development costs increased as a direct result of the development of our hormone therapy products and associated clinical trials.

 

Professional fees increased primarily due to higher costs as a result of SEC reporting and additional requirements related to regulatory compliance.

 

Sales and marketing costs increased due to expanded client education.

 

Other Expense

 

Other non-operating expense increased by approximately $94,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared with the comparable period in 2012. This increase is primarily a result of non-cash financing costs incurred during the current period totaling approximately $448,000, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense of approximately $134,000 and loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $197,000.

Other operating expenses			2.8	%			1.4	%

 

Operating expenses increased by approximately $9.9 million (80%) as a result of the following items:

  

		(000s)
Increase in human resource costs, including salaries, commissions, benefits and taxes		$	3,454
Increase in research and development costs			4,795
Increase in sales and marketing, excluding human resource costs			758
Increase in legal, accounting and consulting fees			450
Increase in other operating expenses			445
		$	9,902

 

 

Human resource costs, including salaries, commissions, benefits and taxes were higher as a result of increases in personnel between the two periods (approximately $1,754,000) and increases in non-cash compensation related to option awards (approximately $1,700,000).

 

Product research and development costs increased as a direct result of the development of our hormone therapy products and associated clinical trials.

 

Professional fees increased primarily due to higher costs as a result of SEC reporting and additional requirements related to regulatory compliance.

 

Sales and marketing costs increased due to expanded client education.

 

Other Expense

 

Other non-operating expense decreased by approximately $16,396,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared with the comparable period in 2012. This decrease is primarily a result of loss on extinguishment of debt and expense related to the beneficial conversion feature incurred during 2012 as herein described, partially offset by amortization of financing costs of approximately $1,108,000.

 

Loss on extinguishment of debt

 

In February 2012, we issued notes in the aggregate of approximately $2,700,000 and granted warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock. As consideration for these notes and warrants, we received an aggregate of $1,000,000 of new funding, or the New Funding, and the surrender of certain promissory notes previously issued by us in the aggregate amount of approximately $1,700,000. We determined that the resulting modification of the notes was substantially in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 470-50, Modifications and Extinguishments. As such the modification was accounted for as an extinguishment and restructuring of debt, and the warrants issued, valued at approximately $10,500,000, were expensed as loss on extinguishment of debt. The relative fair value of the New Funding was estimated by calculating the present value of future cash flows discounted at a market rate of return for comparable debt instruments, to be $1,500,000. We recognized a reduction in loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $200,000, which represented the difference between the net carrying amount of the New Funding and its fair value.

 

Beneficial Conversion Feature

 

Beneficial conversion feature of approximately $6,717,000 consists of non-cash costs associated with the conversion of approximately $1,055,000 in debt into 2,775,415 shares of our common stock.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We incurred recurring net losses, including net losses of approximately $20.0 million and $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net cash outlays from operations and capital expenditures were approximately $16.3 million and $8.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $72.2 million and stockholders’ equity of $62.0 million. As of December 31, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $52.1 million and a stockholders’ deficit of $1.4 million.

 

We need substantial amounts of cash to complete the clinical development of our proposed hormone therapy products. To fund the clinical development of our proposed hormone therapy products in March, April, and September, 2013, we sold an aggregate of 45,116,352 shares of our common stock in public offerings, through which we raised approximately $78.9 million, net of commissions and expenses. As of September 30, 2013, we had approximately $60 million in cash and cash equivalents and a $10 million line of credit available to us under the Plato Note.

 

 

Although we can provide no assurances, we believe our available cash and cash equivalents and the amount available under our line of credit will be sufficient to fund our operations, including the clinical development of our hormone therapy products for the next 12 months; however, changing circumstances may cause us to consume funds significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to spend more money than currently expected because of circumstances beyond our control.

 

If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we may be required to take one or more of the following actions:

 

●

significantly delay, scale back, or discontinue our product development and commercialization efforts;

 

●

seek collaborators for our proposed hormone therapy products at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable or on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be the case; and

 

●

license, potentially on unfavorable terms, our rights to our proposed hormone therapy products that we otherwise would seek to develop or commercialize ourselves.

  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

None.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

Other than the entry into a new lease agreement with respect to our corporate headquarters as disclosed in NOTE 13 – COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCIES in the Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there were no material changes in our commitments under contractual obligations.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as summarized in Note 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. We do not expect that the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

We had cash and cash equivalents totaling $1.6 million as of December 31, 2012. We hold our cash in money market funds and the primary objective of our investment policy is to preserve principal and maintain proper liquidity to meet operating needs. Our investment policy specifies credit quality standards for our investments and limits the amount of credit exposure to any single issue, issuer or type of investment. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. To minimize this risk, we intend to maintain a portfolio that may include cash, cash equivalents and investment securities available-for-sale in a variety of securities which may include money market funds, government and non-government debt securities and commercial paper, all with various maturity dates. Due to the low risk profile of our investments, an immediate 100 basis point change in interest rates would not h a material effect on the fair market value of our portfolio.

 

We do not hold or issue derivatives, derivative commodity instruments or other financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. Further, we do not believe our cash equivalents and investment securities have significant risk of default or illiquidity. We made this determination based on discussions with our investment advisors and a review of our holdings. While we believe our cash equivalents and investment securities do not contain excessive risk, we cannot provide absolute assurance that in the future our investments will not be subject to adverse changes in market value. All of our investments are held at fair value.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, in order to allow timely decisions in connection with required disclosure.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, 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. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.

 

 

 Changes in Internal Controls

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, there were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, or other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
