Operations

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the Company), as of September 30, 2023 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited. Certain information in the footnote disclosures of these financial statements has been condensed or omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. In the opinion of management, these statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect, among other things, (i) reported amounts of assets and liabilities; (ii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements; and (iii) reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire 2023 fiscal year or any future period.

The Company is committed to developing and commercializing therapeutics to help improve the lives of patients with serious eye disorders. The Company’s pipeline leverages its proprietary erodible DURASERT Etechnology (Durasert E) for sustained intraocular drug delivery including EYP-1901, an investigational intravitreal treatment delivering vorolanib, currently in Phase 2 clinical trials for wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD), the leading cause of vision loss among people 50 years of age and older in the United States and non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), a largely untreated disease due to limitations of available therapies. The Company is also advancing EYP-2301 into pre-clinical development delivering razuprotafib in Durasert E for the potential treatment of diabetic eye diseases.

In May 2023, the Company granted an exclusive license and rights to its YUTIQ® (fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implant) 0.18 mg (YUTIQ) product to Alimera Sciences, Inc. (Alimera) for $82.5 million, consisting of a $75.0 million upfront cash payment (Upfront Payment) and an additional $7.5 million payment in equal quarterly installments in 2024. In addition, commencing in 2025, the Company will receive a low-to-mid double-digit royalty on Alimera's related U.S. net sales above defined thresholds for the calendar years 2025-2028.

The Company plans to identify and advance additional product candidates through clinical and regulatory development for its pipeline. This may be accomplished through internal discovery efforts, research collaborations and/or in-licensing arrangements with partner molecules and potential acquisitions of additional products, product candidates or technologies.

Liquidity

The Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities of $136.0 million at September 30, 2023. The Company has a history of operating losses and has not had significant recurring cash inflows from revenue. The Company’s operations have been financed primarily from sales of its equity securities, issuance of debt and a combination of license fees, milestone payments, royalty income and other fees received from its collaboration partners. The Company anticipates that it will continue to incur losses as it continues the research and development of its product candidates, and the Company does not expect revenues to generate sufficient funding to sustain its operations in the near-term. The Company expects to continue fulfilling its funding needs through cash inflows from revenues, licensing and research collaboration transactions, additional equity capital raises and other arrangements. The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities of $136.0 million at September 30, 2023 will enable the Company to fund its current and planned operations for at least the next twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. Actual cash requirements could differ from management’s projections due to many factors, including the timing and results of the Company’s clinical trials for EYP-1901, additional investments in research and development programs, competing technological and market developments and the costs of any strategic acquisitions and/or development of complementary business opportunities.

Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

New accounting pronouncements are issued periodically by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective dates. The Company believes that recently issued and adopted pronouncements will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows or do not apply to the Company’s operations.
