This letter is being submitted together with Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Registration Statement, which has been provided to address various of the Staff’s comments. The bold and numbered paragraphs below correspond to the numbered paragraphs in the Comment Letter and are followed by the Company’s responses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures, page 12

1.
We note your response to our comment number 6; however, we continue to believe adjusting non-GAAP performance measures for inventory write-downs is not appropriate and does not comply with Question 100.01 of the C&DIs. Please revise as necessary. In addition, please ensure that your future filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, also do not include inventory write-down adjustments for non-GAAP performance measures.

 

Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and while the Company respectfully disagrees with the Staff’s comment, it has revised its disclosure accordingly on pages 11 and 12.

We note that you disclose that the fourth freeze drier is expected to become operation in the first quarter of 2024. Please update as to the status of the freeze drier.

 

Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised its disclosure accordingly on pages 2, 42 and 54.

3.
We note in your 8-K filed on April 2, 2024 that Brendon Fischer has taken over as the Company's interim Chief Financial Officer. Please provide the information required by Item 401(e) of Regulation S-K.

 

Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised its disclosure accordingly throughout Amendment No. 2, including on pages 65, 70 and 79.
