SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Although our forward-looking statements reflect the good faith judgment of our management, these statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by us. Consequently, these forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements.

These statements include, but are not limited to, statements under this caption as well as under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, as well as in our other filings with the SEC. You should be aware that the occurrence of any of the events discussed under this caption as well as under the heading “Risk Factors” in any documents we filed with the SEC could substantially harm our business, operating results and financial condition and that if any of these events occurs, it could adversely affect the value of an investment in our securities.

Forward-looking statements include statements about:

 

•

the success, cost, and timing of our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval of SM-88;

 

•

our ability to successfully commercialize SM-88, if approved;

 

•

the rate and degree of market acceptance of SM-88, if approved;

 

•

our estimates of our expenses, losses, future revenue, and capital requirements, and our needs for or ability to obtain additional financing, including funding needed to complete or advance our clinical trials;

As a result of these factors, we cannot assure you that forward-looking statements in this report will prove to be accurate. Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us to any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time frame, or at all.

Tyme Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2017

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Nature of Business

Tyme Technologies, Inc. (“Tyme Tech”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Tyme Inc. (“Tyme”) and Luminant Biosciences, LLC (“Luminant”) (collectively, the “Company”) have historically operated on a fiscal year ending December 31 of each year. On October 27, 2016, the Board of Directors of Tyme Tech approved a change in fiscal year end from December 31 to March 31 of each year.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of Tyme Tech and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Tyme and Luminant. Luminant conducted the initial research and development of the Company’s therapeutic platform. Since January 1, 2014, the majority of the Company’s research and development activities and other business efforts have been conducted by Tyme.

Tyme is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of highly targeted cancer therapeutics with a broad range of oncology indications for humans. Tyme was incorporated in Delaware in 2013 and its operations to date have been directed primarily toward developing business strategies, research and development activities and preparing for clinical trials for human oncologic product candidates. In June of 2016, the Company initiated a Phase Ib/II clinical study subject to United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) review for SM-88 use in human prostate cancer patients and as of June 30, 2017, such study was progressing as a Phase II program. The Company is also evaluating the expansion of its Phase II program to other types of cancer, including pancreatic cancer.

Liquidity

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has historically funded its operations primarily through equity offerings. The most recent offering was in March and April of 2017, raising gross proceeds of $11.88 million. The proceeds of the offering are being used for continued clinical studies, drug commercialization and development activities and other general operating expenses. For the year ended March 31, 2017 the Company had negative cash flow from operations of $5.9 million and GAAP net loss of $15.2 million, which included $8.1 million of non-cash expenses, primarily non-cash equity compensation expense. For the quarter ended June 30, 2017, the Company had negative cash flow from operations of $2.8 million, GAAP net loss of $2.9 million, which included $1.3 million of non-cash expenses, primarily non-cash equity compensation expense, cash on hand of $10.5 million, prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1.3 million and outstanding accounts payable of $3.1 million.

The financial statements have been prepared on a going basis without additional disclosure contemplated under Accounting Standards Update 2014-15 because management has concluded that substantial doubt does not exist regarding the Company’s ability to satisfy its obligations as they come due during the twelve-month period following the issuance of these financial statements. This conclusion is based on the Company’s assessment of qualitative and quantitative conditions and events, considered in aggregate as of the date of issuance of these financial statements that are known and reasonably knowable. The Company’s assessment of substantial doubt has changed from the previous periodic report filing, its March 31, 2017 fiscal year Form 10-K. Since that Form 10-K issuance, the Company has developed new detailed operational plans, involving revised clinical inputs and a research plan with less long-term commitments than those that were contemplated by management at the time such Form 10-K was filed.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2017. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) related to interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules

and regulations. The financial information contained herein is unaudited; however, management believes all adjustments have been made that are necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.

Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on June 12, 2017. Since the date of such financial statements, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tyme Tech and its subsidiaries, Tyme and Luminant. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2017, the FASB issued Update No. 2017-05, Other Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets. This update is meant to clarify the scope of ASC Subtopic 610-20, Other Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets and to add guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. This guidance is to be applied using a full retrospective method or a modified retrospective method as outlined in the guidance and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Further, the Company is required to adopt this guidance at the same time that it adopts the guidance in Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and assessing its potential impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”), which provides for simplification of certain aspects of employee share-based payment accounting including income taxes, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, accounting for forfeitures and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2017 and will be applied either prospectively on the area covered in this update. The Company has adopted this standard and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Common Stock

Voting

Each holder of Company common stock is entitled to one vote for each share thereof held by such holder at all meetings of stockholders (and written action in lieu of meetings). The number of authorized shares of Company common stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of majority of the combined number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

Dividends

Dividends may be declared and paid on the Company common stock from funds lawfully available therefore, as and when determined by the board of directors.

Liquidation

In the event of the liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the Company, holders of Company common stock will be entitled to receive all assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders.

Securities Purchase Agreements

On March 10, 2017, the Company raised $9.2 million in gross proceeds through a private placement (“March 2017 Private Placement”) of 3,588,620 shares of our common stock and 3,588,620 common stock purchase warrants (each, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles its holder to purchase one share of common stock (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of $3.00 per Warrant Share. The warrants expire two years from the date of issuance and vest immediately. The warrants are included within additional paid-in capital on the statement of stockholders’ equity and will not be subject to remeasurement.

In April, 2017, the Company raised $2.7 million in gross proceeds through a private placement (“April 2017 Private Placement”) of 1,069,603 shares of our common stock and 1,069,603 common stock purchase warrants (each, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles its holder to purchase one share of common stock (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of $3.00 per Warrant Share. The warrants expire two years from the date of issuance and vest immediately. The warrants are included within additional paid-in capital on the statement of stockholders’ equity and will not be subject to remeasurement.

Investors in the March 2017 and April 2017 Private Placements have limited anti-dilution protection. This provision provides that if the Company were to raise $10 million or more in one or more public or private offerings before the anti-dilution expiry date of September 10, 2017 for the March 2017 Private Placement and October 7, 2017 for the April 2017 Private Placement, at an effective average consideration and/or exercise or conversion price per share price less than $2.55 per share, subject to exceptions for issuances of certain “exempt securities,” anti-dilution protections could apply which could obligate the Company to issue additional securities to the March 2017 and April 2017 Private Placement investors. This provision has been accounted for as a derivative liability with a fair value of approximately $74,800 and $378,600 as of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively, and will be subject to remeasurement (see Note 6).

At June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 5,566,107 and 4,496,504 common stock purchase warrants relating to securities purchase agreements were outstanding and exercisable.

The following summarizes the common stock warrant activity for the three months ended June 30, 2017:

Awards under the 2015 Plan may include, but need not be limited to, one or more of the following: options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance grants, stock bonuses, and any other type of award deemed by the administrator to be consistent with the purposes of the 2015 Plan. The exercise price of all options awarded under the 2015 Plan must be no less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company common stock as determined on the date of the grant and have a term of no greater than ten years from the date of grant. As of June 30, 2017, there were 6,320,162 shares available for grant under the 2015 Plan.

On May 9, 2016, the Board approved the establishment of a stock option plan for non-executive members of the Board (the “2016 Director Plan”), which includes: (i) (A) for current members, an immediate stock option grant of 25,000 shares at fair market value (as defined in the 2016 Director Plan to generally mean the closing stock price per share on the date of grant); or (B) for future members initially appointed, an immediate stock option grant of 25,000 shares at fair market value; and (ii) beginning with the 2017 annual meeting, for members who are reelected as members of the Board, an annual stock option grant of 10,000 shares at fair market value. Each of these stock option awards will vest 50% on the date of grant and 50% on the first anniversary of the date of grant. These stock option awards are in addition to the annual payment of $50,000 in cash fees to non-employee directors.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options granted. In accordance with ASC 718 for employees, the compensation expense is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which approximates the vesting period.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options granted. In accordance with ASC 718 for employees, the compensation expense is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which approximates the vesting period.

The expected volatility of options granted has been determined using the method described under ASC 718 using the expected volatility of similar companies. The expected term of options granted to employees in the current fiscal period has been based on the contractual term of the agreement as prescribed by ASC 718 Share-Based Payment.

The weighted average assumptions utilized to determine such values are presented in the following table:

 

		June 30, 2017				June 30, 2016
Risk free interest rate			2.17	%			1.77	%
Expected volatility			90.02	%			89.00	%
Expected term			10 years				10 years
Dividend yield			0	%			0	%

The following is a summary of the status of the Company’s stock options as of June 30, 2017:

 

		Number of Options				Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding at March 31, 2017			4,039,444			$	6.15
Granted			32,000				3.00
Exercised			—				—
Forfeited/Cancelled			(519,444	)			8.23
Outstanding at June 30, 2017			3,552,000				5.82
Options exercisable at March 31, 2017			1,011,028				7.25

 

				Stock Options Outstanding																Stock Options Vested
Range of Exercise Price				Number Outstanding at June 30, 2017				Weighted Average Exercise Price				Weighted Average Remaining Life (Years)				Aggregate Intrinsic Value				Number Vested at June 30, 2017				Weighted Average Exercise Price				Aggregate Intrinsic Value
	$2.50-$8.75				3,552,000			$	5.82				9.28			$	105,000				1,011,028			$	7.25			$	27,500

The intrinsic value is calculated as the excess of the market value of June 30, 2017 over the exercise price of the options is approximately $105,000 and $27,500 for outstanding stock options and vested stock options, respectively. The market value as of June 30, 2017 was $3.00 as reported by the OTC Market, Inc.

Note 11. Income Taxes.

A valuation allowance is recorded if it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company weighed available positive and negative evidence and concluded that a full valuation allowance should continue to be maintained on its net deferred tax assets.

Table of Contents

The Company is required to evaluate uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Due to the full valuation allowance, none of the gross unrecognized tax benefits would affect the effective tax rate at June 30, 2017, if recognized.

The Company had no income tax related penalties or interest for periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements related to uncertain tax positions, which would be recorded as tax expense should the Company accrue for such items.

Note 12. Subsequent Events.

Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Annual Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on June 12, 2017, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis. As used in this report, unless the context suggests otherwise, “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company” or “Tyme Technologies” refer to Tyme Technologies, Inc. All amounts in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are approximate.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

This management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to accrued expenses, revenue recognition, deferred revenue and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and significant judgments and estimates as discussed in our Form 10-K filed on June 12, 2017 with the SEC.

Recent Developments

On July 27, 2017, the Company announced that its shares of common stock in Tyme Technologies, Inc. (“Common Stock”) were approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Company’s Common Stock was previously quoted on the OTCQB^® Venture Market (“OTC”) under the ticker symbol “TYMI”.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $2.9 million compared to $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Revenues and Other Income

During the three month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we did not realize any revenues from operations. We do not anticipate recognizing any revenues until such time as one of our products has been approved for marketing by appropriate regulatory authorities or we enter into collaboration or licensing arrangement, none of which is anticipated to occur in the near future.

Operating Costs and Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, operating costs and expenses totaled $3.2 million compared to $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, representing a decrease of $2.8 million. Operating costs and expenses were comprised of the following:

 

•

Research and development expenses were $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, representing a decrease of $.3 million. All research and development expenditures have been incurred in respect of our lead drug candidate, SM-88, and its technology platform. Research and development activities primarily consist of the following:

 

•

Salary and salary related expenses for research and development personnel was $250,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $200,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $50,000 between the comparable periods, primarily attributable to a new hire.

•

Included in research and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 is $500,000 of stock based compensation expense related to stock options granted to research and development personnel compared to $700,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $200,000 between comparable periods. The decrease was primarily attributed to a greater amount of grants of vested stock options to employees in the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

 

•

General and administrative expenses were $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, representing a decrease of $2.5 million. The general and administrative expenses for the respective periods include:

•

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we incurred costs of $650,000 for legal and accounting fees compared to $500,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, representing an increase of $150,000.

Other income (expense)

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the company had other income of $316,000 compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The other income was attributed to the remeasurement of the derivative liability relating to anti-dilution provisions of two private placement offerings in March 2017 and April 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2017, we had cash of $10,500,000, working capital of $8,600,000 and stockholders’ equity of $8,600,000.

Net cash used in or provided by operating, investing and financing activities from continuing operations were as follows:

 

		Three Months Ended June 30,
		2017				2016
Net cash used in operating activities		$	(2,750,000	)		$	(1,900,000	)
Net cash used in investing activities			—				—
Net cash provided by financing activities			2,770,000				—

Operating Activities

Our cash used in operating activities in the three months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $2,750,000, which is the sum of (i) our net loss of $2,875,000, less non-cash expenses totaling $980,000 (principally stock-based compensation), and (ii) changes in operating assets and liabilities of $855,000.

Our cash used in operating activities in the three months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $1,900,000, which is the sum of (i) our net loss of $6,010,000, less non-cash expenses totaling $4,220,000 (principally stock based compensation and issuance of common stock for services), and (ii) decreases in operating assets and liabilities of $100,000.

Investing Activities

We had no net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Financing Activities

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, our financing activities consisted of the following:

In April, 2017, the Company raised $2.6 million in net proceeds through a private placement (“April 2017 Private Placement”) of 1,069,603 shares of our common stock and 1,069,603 common stock purchase warrants (each, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles its holder to purchase one share of common stock (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of $3.00 per Warrant Share. The warrants expire two years from the date of issuance and vest immediately. The warrants are included within additional paid-in capital on the statement of stockholders’ equity and will not be subject to remeasurement. The Company collected approximately $175,000 of subscription receivables in the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, there were no financing activities.

Liquidity and Capital Requirements Outlook

The Company has historically funded its operations primarily through equity offerings. The most recent offerings were in March and April of 2017, raising gross proceeds of $11.88 million. Following an assessment of qualitative and quantitative conditions and events considered in the aggregate and based on conditions and events known and reasonably knowable as of the date these financial statements were issued, management believed that the Company has sufficient cash resources to satisfy its obligations as they come due during the twelve-month period following the issuance of these financial statements.

We anticipate requiring additional long-term funding or resources through a variety of other means, including potential issuances of debt or equity securities in public or private financings, option exercises, and partnerships and/or collaborations in order to fund the development of our product candidates, as well as to engage in strategic transactions, if any. The most significant funding needs are anticipated to be in connection with preparing for and conducting one or more phase II clinical trials of our SM-88 drug candidate and related studies and investigations. Additional equity financing may be dilutive to our stockholders; debt financing, if available, may involve significant cash payment obligations and covenants that restrict our ability to operate as a business; and our stock price may not reach levels necessary to induce option exercises. The demand for the equity and debt of biopharmaceutical companies is dependent upon many factors, including the general state of the financial markets. During times of extreme market volatility, capital may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise the funds necessary to meet our long-term liquidity needs, we may have to delay or discontinue the development of our drug candidates or raise funds on terms that we currently consider unfavorable.

Seasonality

The Company does not believe that its operations are seasonal in nature.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under SEC rules.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks.

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve capital while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. Our cash balance as of June 30, 2017 was held in insured depository accounts, of which approximately $10.3 million exceeded insurance limits.

 

Item 4.

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 of June 30, 2017 as required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were:

 

•

inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and

 

•

ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes, including inadequate management oversight of outside accounting firm.

The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by Messrs. Hoffman and Taylor in connection with their review of our financial statements as of June 30, 2017. In addition, our management noted further internal control deficiencies, including those relating to segregation of duties over cash disbursements and the prompt analysis of the financial impact of all transactions to which we are a party.

Our management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:

 

•

We retained an accounting and financial reporting advisory firm with significant experience with publicly held companies to assist management in the accounting function and with implementing and enhancing our internal controls over financial reporting. As we secure additional working capital, we will create additional positions in order to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function.

 

•

We intend to initiate periodic meetings with our outside accounting firm to discuss operating results, significant transactions, conclusions reached regarding technical accounting matters and financial reporting disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our three months ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
