Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(in thousands, except share and per share data)
1. Organization
Pulmatrix, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in 2013 as a Delaware corporation. The Company is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of a novel class of inhaled therapeutic products. The Company’s proprietary dry powder delivery platform, iSPERSE™ (inhaled Small Particles Easily Respirable and Emitted), is engineered to deliver small, dense particles with highly efficient dispersibility and delivery to the airways, which can be used with an array of dry powder inhaler technologies and can be formulated with a variety of drug substances. The Company is developing a pipeline of iSPERSE™-based therapeutic candidates targeted at prevention and treatment of a range of respiratory and other diseases with significant unmet medical needs.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).
The financial information as of March 31, 2023, and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including those which are normal and recurring) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included. The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2022 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, estimates of future expected costs in order to derive and recognize revenue, estimates related to clinical trial accruals and upfront deposits, incremental borrowing rate, and accounting for income taxes and the related valuation allowance.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash is a financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk. For all periods presented, substantially all of the Company’s cash was deposited in accounts at a single financial institution that management believes is creditworthy, and the Company has not incurred any losses to date. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by this financial institution for amounts in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits.

the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue from one customer accounted for

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards, in the Annual Report. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not make any changes to its significant accounting policies, except as described below with respect to recent accounting pronouncements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Except as set forth below, the Company did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2023 that had a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In
June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses
(Topic 326)—Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which has been subsequently
amended. The provisions of ASU 2016-13 modify the impairment model for financial instruments to utilize an expected loss methodology
in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology and require consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information
to inform credit loss estimates. The Company adopted the standard as of
As of March 31, 2023, there are no new, or existing recently issued, accounting pronouncements that are of significance, or potential significance, that impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not hold any financial assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3.

7. Significant Agreements
Development and Commercialization Agreement with Cipla Technologies LLC (“Cipla”)
On April 15, 2019, the Company entered into a Development and Commercialization Agreement (the “Cipla Agreement”) with Cipla for the co-development and commercialization, on a worldwide exclusive basis, of PUR1900, the Company’s inhaled iSPERSE™ drug delivery system (the “Product”) enabled formulation of the antifungal drug, itraconazole, which is only available as an oral drug, for the treatment of all pulmonary indications, including allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (“ABPA”) in patients with asthma. The Company entered into an amendment to the Cipla Agreement on November 8, 2021 (the “Amendment”), and all references to the Cipla Agreement herein refer to the Cipla Agreement, as amended.

Accounting Treatment
The Company concluded that because both it and Cipla are active participants in the arrangement and are exposed to the significant risks and rewards of the collaboration, the Company’s collaboration with Cipla is within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 808, Collaborative Arrangements (“ASC 808”). The Company concluded that Cipla is a customer since they contracted with the Company to obtain research and development services and a license to the Assigned Assets, each of which is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities, in exchange for consideration. Therefore, the Company has applied the guidance in ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) to account for the research and development services and a license within the contract. The Company determined that the research and development services and license to the Assigned Assets are considered highly interdependent and highly interrelated and therefore are considered a single combined performance obligation because Cipla cannot benefit from the license without the performance by the Company of the research and development services. Such research and development services are highly specialized and proprietary to the Company and therefore not available to Cipla from any other third party.
The
Company initially determined the total transaction price to be $
The
Company concluded that the Amendment represented a contract modification that is treated for accounting purposes as the termination of
the Cipla Agreement and a creation of a new contract (the “Amended Cipla Agreement”). Accordingly, the modification is accounted
for on a prospective basis. The total transaction price for the Amended Cipla Agreement includes variable consideration from the Amendment
as well as $
Revenue is recognized for the Amended Cipla Agreement as the research and development services are provided using an input method, according to the ratio of costs incurred to the total costs expected to be incurred in the future to satisfy the Company’s obligations. In management’s judgment, this input method is the best measure of the transfer of control of the combined performance obligation. The amounts received that have not yet been recognized as revenue are recorded in deferred revenue on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, with amounts expected to be recognized in the next 12 months recorded as current.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $

In
May 2021, the Company entered into an At-The-Market Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright and
Co., LLC (“HCW”) to act as the Company’s sales agent with respect to the issuance and sale of up to $
During
the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company sold shares of its common stock under the Sales Agreement at a weighted-average
price of approximately $ per share, which resulted in net proceeds of approximately $
9. Warrants

Warrants to purchase up to shares of common stock at $ per share expired subsequent to March 31, 2023 but before the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

The Company sponsors the Pulmatrix, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). As of March 31, 2023, the Incentive Plan provided for the grant of up to shares of the Company’s common stock, of which shares remained available for future grant.

The Company records stock-based compensation expense related to stock options based on their grant-date fair value. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option grants and to determine the related compensation expense. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based payment awards represent management’s best estimates. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $per share. The weighted-average assumptions used in determining fair value of the stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | |||||||
| Expected option life (years) | ||||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | % | % | ||||||
| Expected volatility | % | % | ||||||
| Expected dividend yield | % | % | ||||||
The expected life of the Company’s options was determined using the simplified method as a result of limited historical data regarding the Company’s activity. The risk-free interest rate was obtained from U.S. Treasury rates for the expected life of the stock options. The Company’s expected volatility was based upon the weighted average of historical volatility for industry peers and its own volatility. The dividend yield considers that the Company has not historically paid dividends and does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
As of March 31, 2023, there was $ million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options granted under the Company’s stock award plans. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately years.

31, 2023, the Company had aggregate commitments to pay approximately $
Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of its business, the Company may be involved in various legal proceedings involving contractual and employment relationships, patent or other intellectual property rights, and a variety of other matters. The Company is not aware of any pending legal proceedings that would reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
12. Leases
Current Corporate Headquarters
The
Company has limited leasing activities as a lessee which are primarily related to its corporate headquarters located at 99 Hayden Avenue,
Suite 390, Lexington, Massachusetts. The lease is for approximately
The Company also leases small office equipment which is primarily short-term or immaterial in nature. Therefore, no right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized for these leases.
The components of lease expense for the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||

As
of March 31, 2023, the lease liability and right-of-use asset were not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as the facility
is under construction and the lease commencement date has not yet been reached. The Company has made $
13. Income Taxes
The Company had no income tax expense due to operating losses incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
Management of the Company evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets and determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the deferred tax assets. As a result, a full valuation allowance was recorded as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
The Company applies ASC 740, Income Taxes, for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. Unrecognized tax benefits represent tax positions for which reserves have been established. A full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s deferred tax assets, so that the effect of the unrecognized tax benefits is to reduce the gross amount of the deferred tax asset and the corresponding valuation allowance. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation method that determines earnings (loss) per share for common shares and participating securities. The participating securities consist of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. The undistributed earnings are allocated between common shares and participating securities as if all earnings had been distributed during the period. In periods of loss, no allocation is made to the Series A Preferred Stock and diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because common stock equivalents are excluded as their inclusion would be antidilutive.

The Company has completed an evaluation of all subsequent events after the balance sheet date of March 31, 2023 through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued to ensure that the condensed consolidated financial statements include appropriate disclosure of events both recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2023, and events which occurred subsequently but were not recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that require disclosure, except as disclosed within the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors that may affect our future results. The information set forth below should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023. Unless stated otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “us,” “we,” “our,” or our “Company” and similar terms refer to Pulmatrix, Inc., a Delaware corporation and its subsidiaries.
Forward-Looking Statements

All statements other than statements of historical fact contained herein, including statements regarding our business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits or other consequences of our plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits from acquisitions to be made by us, or projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings, or other aspects of our operating results, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “anticipates,” “assumes,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “guides,” “intends,” “is confident that,” “may,” “plans,” “seeks,” “projects,” “targets,” and “would,” and their opposites and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

Overview
Business
We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel inhaled therapeutic products intended to prevent and treat respiratory and other diseases with significant unmet medical needs using our patented iSPERSE™ technology. Our proprietary product pipeline includes treatments for serious lung diseases, such as allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (“ABPA”) and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (“COPD”), and central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders such as acute migraine. Our product candidates are based on our proprietary engineered dry powder delivery platform, iSPERSE™, which seeks to improve therapeutic delivery to the lungs by optimizing pharmacokinetics and reducing systemic side effects to improve patient outcomes.
We design and develop inhaled therapeutic products based on our proprietary dry powder delivery technology, iSPERSE™ (inhaled Small Particles Easily Respirable and Emitted), which enables delivery of small or large molecule drugs to the lungs by inhalation for local or systemic applications. The iSPERSE™ powders are engineered to be small, dense particles with highly efficient dispersibility and delivery to airways. iSPERSE™ powders can be used with an array of dry powder inhaler technologies and can be formulated with a broad range of drug substances including small molecules and biologics. We believe the iSPERSE™ dry powder technology offers enhanced drug loading and delivery efficiency that outperforms traditional lactose-blend inhaled dry powder therapies.
We believe the advantages of using the iSPERSE™ technology include reduced total inhaled powder mass, enhanced dosing efficiency, reduced cost of goods, and improved safety and tolerability profiles.
Our goal is to develop breakthrough therapeutic products that are safe, convenient, and more effective than the existing therapeutic products for respiratory and other diseases where iSPERSE™ properties are advantageous.
Our current pipeline is aligned to this goal as we develop iSPERSE™-based therapeutic candidates which target the prevention and treatment of a range of diseases, including CNS disorders and pulmonary diseases. These therapeutic candidates include PUR1900 for the treatment of ABPA in patients with asthma and in patients with cystic fibrosis (“CF”), PUR3100 for the treatment of acute migraine, and PUR1800 for the treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“AECOPD”). Each program is enabled by its unique iSPERSE™ formulation designed to achieve specific therapeutic objectives.
We intend to capitalize on our iSPERSE™ technology platform and our expertise in inhaled therapeutics to identify new product candidates for the prevention and treatment of diseases with significant unmet medical needs and to build our product pipeline beyond our existing candidates. In order to advance clinical trials for our therapeutic candidates and leverage the iSPERSE™ platform to enable delivery of partnered compounds, we intend to form strategic alliances with third parties, including pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies or academic or private research institutes.
| 15 |
We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for at least the next several years based on our drug development plans. We expect our expenses and capital requirements will increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, as we:
| ● | Complete PUR1900 Phase 2b clinical trial focused on the development of an inhaled antifungal therapy to prevent and treat allergic/hypersensitivity response to fungus in the lungs of patients with asthma and CF. | |
| We will continue to direct resources to advance the research and development of PUR1900 for ABPA in patients with asthma and CF. In 2018, we completed a Phase 1 study of PUR1900 in normal healthy volunteers and asthma patients. In January 2021, we conducted a Type C meeting with the U.S Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to discuss our plans for a Phase 2b study. Utilizing the FDA feedback, we advanced PUR1900 into a new Phase 2b efficacy study that includes a sixteen-week dosing regimen with potential registration efficacy endpoints. The current Phase 2b study began dosing patients in the first quarter of 2023. The PUR1900 Phase 2b study is anticipated to deliver topline data in mid-2024. | ||
| ● | Pursue further clinical studies for PUR3100, an orally inhaled dihydroergotamine (“DHE”) including a Phase 2 clinical study for the treatment of acute migraine. The Company plans to submit an Investigational New Drug Application (“IND”) in mid-2023, positioning PUR3100 as Phase 2-ready in potential financing or partnership discussions. | |
We developed PUR3100, an iSPERSE™ formulation of DHE in 2020. We completed good laboratory practice (“GLP”) toxicology studies in 2021 and 2022. On September 26, 2022, we announced the completion of patient dosing in a Phase 1 trial evaluating PUR3100, a novel pulmonary inhaled formulation for the treatment of acute migraine. On January 4, 2023, we announced PUR3100 was safe and all doses had fewer GI side effects compared to intravenous (“IV”) DHE. PUR3100 demonstrated a five-minute Tmax and Cmax within the targeted therapeutic range for all three doses tested. The Phase 1 study design was a double-dummy, double-blinded trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of three dose levels of single doses of inhaled PUR3100 with IV placebo, as compared to IV DHE (DHE mesylate injection) with inhaled placebo. Twenty-six healthy subjects were enrolled and each of the four groups contained at least six subjects.
Based on the rapid systemic exposure in the therapeutic range and the improved side effect profile relative to IV dosing, we believe the PUR3100 formulation of DHE is highly differentiated from other DHE products already approved or in development. We believe PUR3100 can be immediately and conveniently self-administered and has a pharmacokinetic profile that may potentially advance the treatment of patients with acute migraine. | ||
| ● | Continue to advance PUR1800, focusing on the development of an inhaled kinase inhibitor for treatment of AECOPD. The Company plans to pursue an appropriate partner as a path forward to advance PUR1800 into a Phase 2 clinical trial. | |
| We completed preclinical safety studies for our lead iSPERSE™ formulation in 2018 and advanced our formulation and process development efforts to support clinical testing in stable moderate-severe COPD patients. We completed a Phase 1b safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics clinical study of PUR1800 for subjects with stable moderate-severe COPD and received topline data from the Phase 1b clinical study in the first quarter of 2022. We analyzed data from the completed Phase 1b clinical study of PUR1800 for AECOPD and presented study results at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) conference in the first quarter of 2023. We completed all data analysis to inform a study design for a potential Phase 2 efficacy and safety study, treating subjects with AECOPD. | ||
| ● | Capitalize on our proprietary iSPERSE™ technology and our expertise in inhaled therapeutics and particle engineering to identify new product candidates for prevention and treatment of diseases with significant unmet medical needs. | |
| To add additional inhaled therapeutics to our development pipeline and facilitate additional collaborations, we are leveraging our iSPERSE™ technology and our management’s expertise in inhaled therapeutics and particle engineering to identify potential product candidates. These potential product candidates are potentially safer and more effective than the current standard of care for prevention and treatment of diseases with significant unmet medical needs. |
| 16 |
| ● | Invest in protecting and expanding our intellectual property portfolio and file for additional patents to strengthen our intellectual property rights. | |
| The status of our patent portfolio changes frequently in the ordinary course of patent prosecution. As of March 31, 2023, our patent portfolio related to iSPERSE™ included approximately 139 granted patents, 19 of which are granted US patents, with expiration dates from 2024 to 2037, and approximately 48 additional pending patent applications in the US and other jurisdictions. Our in-licensed portfolio related to kinase inhibitors included approximately 276 granted patents, 33 of which are granted US patents, with expiration dates from 2029 to 2035, and approximately 25 additional pending patent applications in the US and other jurisdictions. On March 1, 2022, we filed a Patent Cooperation Treaty application that discloses and claims certain formulations and methods of use relevant to our PUR3100 program. | ||
| ● | Seek partnerships and license agreements to support the product development and commercialization of PUR3100 and PUR1800. | |
| In order to advance our clinical programs, we may seek partners or licensees in areas of pharmaceutical and clinical development. |
Therapeutic Candidates
PUR1900
On April 15, 2019, we entered into the Cipla Agreement with Cipla for the co-development and commercialization, on a worldwide, except for the Cipla Territory defined below, exclusive basis, of PUR1900, our inhaled iSPERSE™ drug delivery system (the “Product”) enabled formulation of the antifungal drug, itraconazole, which is only available as an oral drug, for the treatment of all pulmonary indications, including ABPA in patients with asthma. We entered into the Amendment to the Cipla Agreement on November 8, 2021, and all references to the Cipla Agreement herein refer to the Agreement, as amended.
The Cipla Agreement will remain in effect in perpetuity, unless otherwise earlier terminated in accordance with its terms. In the event of circumstances affecting the continuity of development of the Product in line with the Cipla Agreement or certain development milestones are not achieved within a specified timeframe discussed in greater detail below, the JSC will evaluate the cause and effect and make a recommendation as to the most optimal option available to Cipla and us. In such events, the parties are not obligated to follow the recommendation of the JSC and, a Terminating Party may elect to terminate its obligation to fund additional costs and expenses for the development and/or commercialization of the Product. If the non-Terminating Party wishes to continue the development of the Product, it will have the right to purchase the rights of the Terminating Party in the Product at its fair market value. If both Cipla and we abandon the development program, Cipla and we shall make commercially reasonable efforts to monetize the Product and development program in connection with the Pulmonary Indications. Cipla and we will equally share the proceeds.
We and Cipla will each be responsible for 60% and 40%, respectively, of our Direct Costs, in addition to which, Cipla will reimburse us an amount equal to 10% of aggregate Direct Costs upon the achievement of the development milestones set forth in the table below, potentially bringing the sharing of Direct Costs to a 50/50 basis. We will continue to share all other development costs with Cipla that are not Direct Costs, such as the cost of clinical research organizations, manufacturing costs and other third-party costs, on a 50/50 basis.
Pursuant to the Cipla Agreement, (i) all development and commercialization activities with respect to the Product in the Cipla Territory will be conducted exclusively by Cipla at Cipla’s sole cost and expense, and (ii) Cipla shall be entitled to all profits from the sale of the Product in the Cipla Territory, except that if Cipla successfully transfers manufacturing of the Product for the Cipla Territory to a manufacturing site determined by Cipla, we will become entitled to a royalty equal to 2% of net sales in the Cipla Territory.
In partnership with Cipla, we initiated a Phase 2 clinical study in 2019, entitled: “A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Itraconazole Administered as a Dry Powder for Inhalation (PUR1900) in Adult Asthmatic Patients with ABPA.” This clinical study was terminated in July 2020 due to the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patient enrollment and clinical study conduct.
| 17 |
Following termination of the initial Phase 2 clinical study, we conducted a Type C meeting with the FDA on January 27, 2021, in order to discuss the program overall development plan and the current Phase 2b clinical study design. The current Phase 2b clinical study design includes a 16-week dosing regimen with an 8-week follow up and is intended to explore potential efficacy endpoints, whereas the terminated Phase 2 clinical study had comprised only a 4-week dosing regimen with safety and tolerability as its primary endpoint. The longer dosing regimen of the new Phase 2b clinical study is supported by the 6-month inhalation toxicology study in dogs completed in April 2020. The new development plan, including the planned current Phase 2b clinical study, was approved on November 8, 2021. On February 6, 2023, we announced the first patient dosed in the Phase 2b study and the study is currently on track with topline data anticipated in mid-2024.
In addition to the terms of the Cipla Agreement described above, if any of the below development milestones are not met by the date that is nine months after the applicable deadline for achieving such development milestone, either party may elect to terminate its obligation to fund additional development costs, in which case either (i) the non-Terminating Party can acquire the rights of the Terminating Party for fair market value or (ii) the parties will monetize the Product. The table below sets forth the development milestones.
| Phase 2b Development Plan – Development Milestones | ||
| Development Milestone | Milestone Date | |
| 25% of patients enrolled in Phase 2b clinical study are dosed | June 30, 2023 | |
| Company delivers Topline Results to the JSC | June 30, 2024 | |
| Phase 3 Development Plan – Development Milestones | ||
| Development Milestone | Milestone Date | |
| 25% of patients enrolled in Phase 3 clinical study dosed | To be proposed by JSC | |
| Company delivers Topline Results to the JSC | To be proposed by JSC | |
| The Prescription Drug User Fee Act | To be proposed by JSC | |
PUR3100
In 2020, we developed PUR3100, the iSPERSE™ formulation of DHE, for the treatment of acute migraine. Over 38 million people suffer from migraine in the United States. Currently DHE is only available as intravenous infusion or intranasal delivery. If approved for commercialization, PUR3100 should be the first orally inhaled DHE treatment for acute migraine and be an alternative to other acute therapies, such as oral and intravenous triptans that currently represent the majority of the annual migraine prescriptions in the United States. Given the oral inhaled route of delivery, PUR3100 is anticipated to provide a rapid onset of migraine symptom relief with a favorable tolerability profile.
A total of three 14-day GLP toxicology studies have been completed with PUR3100 to support single dose clinical studies. Preparations are underway for chronic toxicology to support long-term dosing and an eventual new drug application (“NDA”).
We have completed several interactions with the FDA, and they have confirmed that, in addition to the planned Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, long-term safety should be assessed in a minimum of one hundred patients for six months of dosing and fifty patients for twelve months of dosing. The FDA also confirmed that it will be necessary to perform a safety study administering PUR3100 to otherwise healthy patients with asthma before an NDA is submitted.
On September 26, 2022, we announced the completion of patient dosing in a Phase 1 clinical study, performed in Australia, designed to assess not only safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of PUR3100 in humans, but also provide preliminary comparative bioavailability data to support the use of the 505(b)(2) pathway for marketing authorization. The study design was a double-dummy, double-blinded trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of three dose levels of single doses of inhaled PUR3100 with IV placebo, as compared to IV DHE (DHE mesylate injection) with inhaled placebo. Twenty-six healthy subjects were enrolled and each of the four groups contained at least six subjects. On January 4, 2023, we announced topline results. PUR3100 was well-tolerated and there was a lower incidence of nausea in PUR3100 dose groups compared to IV DHE.
| 18 |
In contrast to IV DHE, no vomiting was observed in any of the PUR3100 dose groups. Oral inhalation of PUR3100 achieved peak exposures in the targeted therapeutic range at all doses and the Tmax occurred at five minutes after dosing.
Based on the rapid systemic exposure in the therapeutic range and the improved side effect profile relative to IV dosing, we believe the PUR3100 formulation of DHE is highly differentiated from other DHE products already approved or in development. We believe PUR3100 can be immediately and conveniently self-administered and has a pharmacokinetic profile that may potentially advance the treatment of patients with acute migraine.
We plan to submit an IND in mid-2023 in order to conduct a randomized placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical study in patients with migraine to assess the safety and effectiveness of two doses of PUR3100, in which the selection of the two doses has been informed by the initial Phase 1 clinical study. We anticipate that this Phase 2 clinical study will initiate once financing or partnership arrangements have been made.
PUR1800
We completed the Phase 1b safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics clinical study of PUR1800 for patients with stable moderate-severe COPD. Topline data was delivered in the first quarter of 2022.
The clinical study, performed at the Medicines Evaluation Unit in Manchester, UK, was a randomized, three-way crossover double-blind study with 14 days of daily dosing which included placebo and one of two doses of PUR1800, and included a 28-day follow up period after each treatment period. A total of 18 adults with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD were enrolled. Safety and tolerability as well as systemic PK were evaluated.
PUR1800 was well tolerated and there were no observed safety signals. The PK data indicate that PUR1800 results in low and consistent systemic exposure when administered via oral inhalation. The topline data, along with the results from chronic toxicology studies, was delivered in the first quarter of 2022 and presented at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) conference in the first quarter of 2023 and support the continued development of PUR1800 for the treatment of AECOPD and other inflammatory respiratory disease. We completed all data analysis to inform a study design for a potential Phase 2 efficacy and safety study, treating subjects with AECOPD. We plan to pursue an appropriate partner as a path forward to advance PUR1800 into a Phase 2 clinical trial.
Toxicology studies in rats and dogs, with durations of six and nine months respectively, are complete. The data from both studies demonstrated that PUR1800 is safe and well tolerated with chronic dosing, with little to no progression of findings from 28-day studies. We believe that this indicates potential for chronic dosing of PUR1800, enabling us to explore PUR1800 therapy for chronic respiratory disease such as steroid resistant asthma, COPD, or idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. While the program is currently in development for treatment of acute exacerbation of AECOPD, these positive toxicology study results could expand potential indications and value of the program.
Financial Overview
Revenues
To date, we have not generated any product sales. The revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was primarily generated by the collaboration and license agreement with Cipla on our PUR1900 program.
For more discussion on the collaboration or licensing agreements, please see Note 7, Significant Agreements, of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for the research and development of our preclinical and clinical candidates, and include:
| ● | employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expense; | |
| ● | expenses incurred under agreements with CROs or CMOs, and consultants that conduct our clinical trials and preclinical activities; | |
| ● | the cost of acquiring, developing and manufacturing clinical trial materials and lab supplies; | |
| ● | facility, depreciation and other expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for rent, maintenance of our facility, insurance and other supplies; |
| 19 |
| ● | costs associated with preclinical activities and clinical regulatory operations; and | |
| ● | consulting and professional fees associated with research and development activities |
We expense research and development costs to operations as incurred. We recognize costs for certain development activities, such as clinical trials, based on an evaluation of the progress to completion of specific tasks using data such as patient enrollment, clinical site activations or information provided to us by our vendors.
Research and development activities are central to our business model. We utilize a combination of internal and external efforts to advance product development from early-stage work to clinical trial manufacturing and clinical trial support. External efforts include work with consultants and substantial work at CROs and CMOs. We support an internal research and development team and facility for our pipeline and other potential development programs. To move these programs forward along our development timelines, a large portion (approximately 82%) of our staff are research and development employees. In addition, we maintain an approximately 22,000 square foot office and research and development facility which includes capital equipment for the manufacture and characterization of our iSPERSE™ powders for our development efforts. As we identify opportunities for iSPERSE™ in additional indications, we anticipate additional head count, capital, and development costs will be incurred to support these programs. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, however, we cannot determine with certainty the duration and completion costs of these or other current or future preclinical studies and clinical trials. The duration, costs and timing of clinical trials and development of our product candidates will depend on a variety of factors, including the uncertainties of future clinical and preclinical studies, uncertainties in clinical trial enrollment rates and significant and changing government regulation. In addition, the probability of success for each product candidate will depend on numerous factors, including competition, manufacturing capability and commercial viability.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist principally of salaries, benefits and related costs such as stock-based compensation for personnel and consultants in executive, finance, business development, corporate communications and human resource functions, facility costs not otherwise included in research and development expenses, patent filing fees and legal fees. Other general and administrative expenses include travel expenses, expenses related to being a publicly traded company and professional fees for consulting, auditing and tax services.
We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as they relate to audit, legal, regulatory, and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance with exchange listing and SEC requirements, director and officer liability insurance, investor relations costs and other costs associated with being a public company. Additionally, if and when we believe a regulatory approval of a product candidate appears likely, we anticipate an increase in staffing and related expenses as a result of our preparation for commercial operations, especially as it relates to the sales and marketing of our product candidates.
Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates
This management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our condensed consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our most critical estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition and the accrual and recognition of research and development expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and various other factors that are believed 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 were no changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2023, including estimates, assumptions, and judgments as compared to those described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report. It is important that the discussion of our operating results that follow be read in conjunction with the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report.

Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022
The following table sets forth our results of operations for each of the periods set forth below (in thousands):
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | Change | ||||||||||
| Revenues | $ | 1,499 | $ | 1,160 | $ | 339 | ||||||

| Other expense, net | (85 | ) | (11 | ) | (74 | ) | ||||||
| Net loss | $ | (4,448 | ) | $ | (4,973 | ) | $ | 525 | ||||
Revenues — Revenues were $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $0.3 million. The increase is related to revenues under the Cipla Agreement during the period.
Research and development expenses — Research and development expenses were $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of approximately $0.3 million. The decrease was primarily due to decreased spend of $0.6 million in costs related to our PUR3100 program and $0.3 million in costs related to our PUR1800 program, partially offset by increased spend of $0.6 million in costs related to our PUR1900 program.
General and administrative expenses — General and administrative expenses were $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $0.2 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in incurred legal and professional services costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Through March 31, 2023, we incurred an accumulated deficit of $277.9 million, primarily as a result of expenses incurred through a combination of research and development activities related to our various product candidates and general and administrative expenses supporting those activities. We have financed our operations since inception primarily through the sale of preferred and common stock, the issuance of convertible promissory notes, term loans, and collaboration and license agreements. Our total cash and cash equivalents balance as of March 31, 2023 was $30.8 million.
We anticipate that we will continue to incur losses, and that such losses will increase over the next several years due to development costs associated with our iSPERSE™ pipeline programs. We expect that our research and development and general and administrative expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, we will need additional capital to fund our operations, which we may raise through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, other third-party funding and other collaborations and strategic alliances. We are currently exploring financing or partnership arrangements to develop and initiate a potential Phase 2 clinical study for PUR3100.
We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2023 will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months following the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and into the fourth quarter of 2024. We have based our projections of operating capital requirements on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect, and we may use all of our available capital resources sooner than we expect. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with research, development, achievement of contingent milestones and commercialization of pharmaceutical products, we are unable to estimate the exact amount of our operating capital requirements.
| 21 |
We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
The following table sets forth the major sources and uses of cash for each of the periods set forth below (in thousands):

Net cash used in operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $4.9 million, which was primarily the result of a net loss of $4.4 million and $1.2 million in cash outflows associated with changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by $0.7 million of net non-cash adjustments.
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $6.1 million, which was primarily the result of a net loss of $5.0 million and $1.8 million in cash outflows associated with changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by $0.7 million of net non-cash adjustments.
Net cash used in investing activities
No cash was used or provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was due to purchases of property and equipment.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 resulted from proceeds from the issuance of common stock, net of issuance costs. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 resulted from the payment of preferred stock issuance costs from a registered direct offering in December 2021.
Financings
In May 2021, we entered into the Sales Agreement with HCW to act as our sales agent with respect to the issuance and sale of up to $20,000,000 of our shares of common stock, from time to time in an ATM Offering. Sales of common stock under the Sales Agreement are made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed with the SEC on May 26, 2021, and subsequently declared effective on June 9, 2021 (File No. 333-256502), and a related prospectus. HCW acts as our sales agent on a commercially reasonable efforts basis, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of Nasdaq. If expressly authorized by us, HCW may also sell our common stock in privately negotiated transactions. There is no specific date on which the ATM Offering will end, there are no minimum sale requirements and there are no arrangements to place any of the proceeds of the ATM Offering in an escrow, trust or similar account. HCW is entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we sold 13,100 shares of common stock under the Sales Agreement at a weighted-average price of approximately $4.25 per share, which resulted in net proceeds of approximately $53 thousand.

Known Trends, Events and Uncertainties
The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its ongoing effects on our operations is unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. These include but are not limited to the COVID-19 pandemic and its continuing effects on the global economy, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and any additional preventative and protective actions that regulators, or our board or management, may determine are needed.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant economic uncertainty and volatility in the credit and capital markets, and the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including but not limited to, supply chain issues, global shortages of supplies, materials and products, and rising global inflation, continue to do so. In addition, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, including related sanctions and countermeasures, are difficult to predict, and could adversely impact geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions, the global economy, and contribute to increased market volatility, which may in turn adversely affect our business and operations. We may not be able to raise sufficient additional capital and may tailor our drug candidate development program based on the amount of funding we are able to raise in the future. Nevertheless, there is no assurance that these initiatives will be successful.
Other than as discussed above and elsewhere in this report, we are not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that are likely to have a material effect on our financial condition.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).
The financial information as of March 31, 2023, and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including those which are normal and recurring) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included. The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2022 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, estimates of future expected costs in order to derive and recognize revenue, estimates related to clinical trial accruals and upfront deposits, incremental borrowing rate, and accounting for income taxes and the related valuation allowance.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash is a financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk. For all periods presented, substantially all of the Company’s cash was deposited in accounts at a single financial institution that management believes is creditworthy, and the Company has not incurred any losses to date. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by this financial institution for amounts in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue from one customer accounted for 100% of revenue recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, revenue from one customer accounted for approximately 99% of revenue recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, one customer accounted for 100% of accounts receivable.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards, in the Annual Report. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not make any changes to its significant accounting policies, except as described below with respect to recent accounting pronouncements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Except as set forth below, the Company did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2023 that had a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)—Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which has been subsequently amended. The provisions of ASU 2016-13 modify the impairment model for financial instruments to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology and require consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
As of March 31, 2023, there are no new, or existing recently issued, accounting pronouncements that are of significance, or potential significance, that impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Development and Commercialization Agreement with Cipla Technologies LLC (“Cipla”)
On April 15, 2019, the Company entered into a Development and Commercialization Agreement (the “Cipla Agreement”) with Cipla for the co-development and commercialization, on a worldwide exclusive basis, of PUR1900, the Company’s inhaled iSPERSE™ drug delivery system (the “Product”) enabled formulation of the antifungal drug, itraconazole, which is only available as an oral drug, for the treatment of all pulmonary indications, including allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (“ABPA”) in patients with asthma. The Company entered into an amendment to the Cipla Agreement on November 8, 2021 (the “Amendment”), and all references to the Cipla Agreement herein refer to the Cipla Agreement, as amended.
The Company received a non-refundable upfront payment of $22.0 million (the “Upfront Payment”) under the Cipla Agreement. Upon receipt of the Upfront Payment, the Company irrevocably assigned to Cipla the following assets, solely to the extent that each covers the Product in connection with any treatment, prevention, and/or diagnosis of diseases of the pulmonary system (“Pulmonary Indications”): all existing and future technologies, current and future drug master files, dossiers, third-party contracts, regulatory filings, regulatory materials and regulatory approvals, patents, and intellectual property rights, as well as any other associated rights and assets directly related to the Product, specifically in relation to Pulmonary Indications (collectively, the “Assigned Assets”), excluding most specifically the Company’s iSPERSE™ technology. A portion of the Upfront Payment was deposited by the Company into a bank account, along with an equal amount from the Company, and was dedicated to the development of the Product (the “Initial Development Funding”). The Initial Development Funding was depleted during the year ended December 31, 2021, and the Company and Cipla are now each responsible for a portion of the development costs actually incurred as described below (the “Co-Development Phase”).
The Company and Cipla will each be responsible for 60% and 40%, respectively, of the Company’s overhead costs and the time spent by the Company’s employees and consultants on development of the Product (“Direct Costs”), in addition to which, Cipla will reimburse the Company an amount equal to 10% of aggregate Direct Costs upon the achievement of the development milestones set forth in the table below, potentially bringing the sharing of Direct Costs to a 50/50 basis. The Company will continue to share all other development costs with Cipla that are not Direct Costs, such as the cost of clinical research organizations, manufacturing costs and other third-party costs, on a 50/50 basis.
Accounting Treatment
The Company concluded that because both it and Cipla are active participants in the arrangement and are exposed to the significant risks and rewards of the collaboration, the Company’s collaboration with Cipla is within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 808, Collaborative Arrangements (“ASC 808”). The Company concluded that Cipla is a customer since they contracted with the Company to obtain research and development services and a license to the Assigned Assets, each of which is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities, in exchange for consideration. Therefore, the Company has applied the guidance in ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) to account for the research and development services and a license within the contract. The Company determined that the research and development services and license to the Assigned Assets are considered highly interdependent and highly interrelated and therefore are considered a single combined performance obligation because Cipla cannot benefit from the license without the performance by the Company of the research and development services. Such research and development services are highly specialized and proprietary to the Company and therefore not available to Cipla from any other third party.
The Company initially determined the total transaction price to be $22.0 million – comprised of $12.0 million for research and development services for the Product and $10.0 million for the irrevocable license to the Assigned Assets. Any consideration related to the Co-Development Phase was not initially included in the transaction price as such amounts are subject to the variable consideration constraint. Additionally, upon commercialization, Cipla and the Company will share equally, both positive and negative total free cash-flows earned by Cipla in respect of the Product. However, the Company has not included such free cash-flows in the transaction price as these milestones are constrained until after the commercialization of the Product.
The Company concluded that the Amendment represented a contract modification that is treated for accounting purposes as the termination of the Cipla Agreement and a creation of a new contract (the “Amended Cipla Agreement”). Accordingly, the modification is accounted for on a prospective basis. The total transaction price for the Amended Cipla Agreement includes variable consideration from the Amendment as well as $7.4 million deferred under the Cipla Agreement as of the Amendment execution date.
Revenue is recognized for the Amended Cipla Agreement as the research and development services are provided using an input method, according to the ratio of costs incurred to the total costs expected to be incurred in the future to satisfy the Company’s obligations. In management’s judgment, this input method is the best measure of the transfer of control of the combined performance obligation. The amounts received that have not yet been recognized as revenue are recorded in deferred revenue on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, with amounts expected to be recognized in the next 12 months recorded as current.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $1.5 million and $1.2 million in revenue related to the research and development services and irrevocable license to the Assigned Assets in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, respectively. Of the revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023, $0.2 million was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period. As of March 31, 2023, the aggregate transaction price related to the Company’s unsatisfied obligations was $6.0 million and was recorded in deferred revenue, $1.7 million of which was current.

In May 2021, the Company entered into an At-The-Market Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright and Co., LLC (“HCW”) to act as the Company’s sales agent with respect to the issuance and sale of up to $20.0 million of the Company’s shares of common stock, from time to time in an at-the-market public offering (the “ATM Offering”). Sales of common stock under the Sales Agreement are made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed with the SEC on May 26, 2021, and subsequently declared effective on June 9, 2021 (File No. 333-256502), and a related prospectus. HCW acts as the Company’s sales agent on a commercially reasonable efforts basis, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of The NASDAQ Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). If expressly authorized by the Company, HCW may also sell the Company’s common stock in privately negotiated transactions. There is no specific date on which the ATM Offering will end, there are no minimum sale requirements and there are no arrangements to place any of the proceeds of the ATM Offering in an escrow, trust or similar account. HCW is entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company sold shares of its common stock under the Sales Agreement at a weighted-average price of approximately $ per share, which resulted in net proceeds of approximately $53 thousand.

| Stock-based Compensation |
The Company sponsors the Pulmatrix, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). As of March 31, 2023, the Incentive Plan provided for the grant of up to shares of the Company’s common stock, of which shares remained available for future grant.
In addition, the Company sponsors two legacy plans under which no additional awards may be granted. As of March 31, 2023, the two legacy plans have a total of options outstanding, all of which are fully vested and for which common stock will be issued upon exercise.
The Company records stock-based compensation expense related to stock options based on their grant-date fair value. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option grants and to determine the related compensation expense. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based payment awards represent management’s best estimates. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $per share. The weighted-average assumptions used in determining fair value of the stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:
The expected life of the Company’s options was determined using the simplified method as a result of limited historical data regarding the Company’s activity. The risk-free interest rate was obtained from U.S. Treasury rates for the expected life of the stock options. The Company’s expected volatility was based upon the weighted average of historical volatility for industry peers and its own volatility. The dividend yield considers that the Company has not historically paid dividends and does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
As of March 31, 2023, there was $ million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options granted under the Company’s stock award plans. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately years.

Current Corporate Headquarters
The Company has limited leasing activities as a lessee which are primarily related to its corporate headquarters located at 99 Hayden Avenue, Suite 390, Lexington, Massachusetts. The lease is for approximately 22,000 square feet of office and lab space under a lease with 99 Hayden LLC which was subsequently amended on April 30, 2020, October 6, 2021 and March 7, 2023, and will expire on August 31, 2023. The lease provides for base rent, and the Company is responsible for real estate taxes, maintenance, and other operating expenses applicable to the leased premises.
The Company also leases small office equipment which is primarily short-term or immaterial in nature. Therefore, no right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized for these leases.
The components of lease expense for the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:
Maturities of lease liabilities due under these lease agreements as of March 31, 2023 are as follows:
Future Corporate Headquarters
On January 7, 2022, the Company executed a lease agreement with Cobalt Propco 2020, LLC for its new corporate headquarters at 36 Crosby Drive, Bedford, Massachusetts. The leased premises comprises approximately 20,000 square feet of office and lab space and is expected to commence in July 2023, following completion of construction to prepare the premises for the Company’s intended use. Based on the Company’s current plans, management anticipates the improvements will be funded by (i) the landlord through a tenant allowance of $3.9 million, (ii) a landlord-funded advance on tenant improvements of $0.5 million which will be repaid over the lease term, and (iii) approximately $3.0 million by the Company to be paid during the construction period. The lease provides for base rent of $0.1 million per month, which will increase 3% each year over the ten-year noncancellable term. The Company has the option to extend the lease for one additional five-year term and is responsible for real estate taxes, maintenance, and other operating expenses applicable to the leased premises.
As of March 31, 2023, the lease liability and right-of-use asset were not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as the facility is under construction and the lease commencement date has not yet been reached. The Company has made $0.5 million in payments relating to landlord-owned leasehold improvements during the three months ended March 31, 2023, which the Company has classified as prepaid rent, a component of other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheets. On the lease commencement date, the Company plans to reclassify the prepayments to the right-of-use asset, thereby increasing its initial value, but the prepayments will not be included in the measurement of the lease liability. The lease will be recorded as a component of the Company’s right-of-use asset and operating lease liabilities when the lease commencement date occurs.

| Income Taxes | 13. Income Taxes
The Company had no income tax expense due to operating losses incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
Management of the Company evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets and determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the deferred tax assets. As a result, a full valuation allowance was recorded as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
The Company applies ASC 740, Income Taxes, for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. Unrecognized tax benefits represent tax positions for which reserves have been established. A full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s deferred tax assets, so that the effect of the unrecognized tax benefits is to reduce the gross amount of the deferred tax asset and the corresponding valuation allowance. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

| Net Loss Per Share |
Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation method that determines earnings (loss) per share for common shares and participating securities. The participating securities consist of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. The undistributed earnings are allocated between common shares and participating securities as if all earnings had been distributed during the period. In periods of loss, no allocation is made to the Series A Preferred Stock and diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because common stock equivalents are excluded as their inclusion would be antidilutive.

| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).
The financial information as of March 31, 2023, and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including those which are normal and recurring) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included. The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2022 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.
|
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates
In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Due to inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions. The most significant estimates and assumptions in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, estimates of future expected costs in order to derive and recognize revenue, estimates related to clinical trial accruals and upfront deposits, incremental borrowing rate, and accounting for income taxes and the related valuation allowance.

| Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk
Cash is a financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentrations of credit risk. For all periods presented, substantially all of the Company’s cash was deposited in accounts at a single financial institution that management believes is creditworthy, and the Company has not incurred any losses to date. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by this financial institution for amounts in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue from one customer accounted for 100% of revenue recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, revenue from one customer accounted for approximately 99% of revenue recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, one customer accounted for 100% of accounts receivable. |
| Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Except as set forth below, the Company did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2023 that had a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)—Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which has been subsequently amended. The provisions of ASU 2016-13 modify the impairment model for financial instruments to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology and require consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
As of March 31, 2023, there are no new, or existing recently issued, accounting pronouncements that are of significance, or potential significance, that impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. |
