CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain or incorporate by reference forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Such forward-looking statements are based upon management’s assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions and beliefs about future events. Except for historical information, the use of predictive, future-tense or forward-looking words such as “intend,” “plan,” “predict,” “may,” “will,” “project,” “target,” “strategy,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “continue,” “potential,” “forecast,” “should” and similar expressions, whether in the negative or affirmative, that reflect our current views with respect to future events and operational, economic and financial performance are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are only predictions, and actual results and the timing of certain events and circumstances may differ materially from those described by the forward-looking statements as a result of risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, Petros’ ability to execute on its business strategy, including its plans to develop and commercialize its product candidates; Petros’ ability to comply with obligations as a public reporting company; the ability of Petros to timely and effectively implement controls and procedures required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; the risk that the financial performance of Petros may not be as anticipated by the merger transactions that resulted in the Company’s creation; risks resulting from Petros’ status as an emerging growth company, including that reduced disclosure requirements may make shares of Petros common stock less attractive to investors; risks related to Petros’ history of incurring significant losses; risks related to Petros’ substantial dependence on the commercialization of a single product, Stendra®, and on a single distributor thereof; risks related to Petros’ commercial supply agreement with Vivus, including the risk that Petros may not be able to obtain sufficient quantities of Stendra® in a timely manner or on commercially viable terms; risks related to Petros’ ability to obtain regulatory approvals for, or market acceptance of, any of its products or product candidates; and the expected or potential impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, and the related responses of governments, consumers, customers, suppliers, employees and the Company, on our business, operations, employees, financial condition and results of operations. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements are described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in “Risk Factor Summary” and in Part I, Item 1A., “Risk Factors,” in Petros’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and in our other reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We advise you to carefully review the reports and documents we file from time to time with the SEC, particularly our annual reports on Form 10-K, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and our current reports on Form 8-K. Petros cautions readers that the forward-looking statements included in, or incorporated by reference into, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our beliefs, expectations, estimates and assumptions only as of the date hereof and are not intended to give any assurance as to future results. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of these factors. Further, Petros cannot assess the effect of each such factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to be materially different from those contained in any forward-looking statement.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because of the risks and uncertainties related to them and to the risk factors. We disclaim any obligation to update the forward-looking statements contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect any new information or future events or circumstances or otherwise, except as required by the federal securities laws.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1)    Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation, and Liquidity

Nature of Operations

Petros Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Petros” or the “Company”) was organized as a Delaware corporation on May 14, 2020 for the purpose of effecting the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 17, 2020 (the “Original Merger Agreement”), by and between Petros, Neurotrope, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Neurotrope”), PM Merger Sub 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (“Merger Sub 1”), PN Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (“Merger Sub 2”), and Metuchen Pharmaceuticals LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Metuchen”). On July 23, 2020, the parties to the Merger Agreement entered into the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “First Merger Agreement Amendment”) and on September 30, 2020, the parties to the Original Merger Agreement entered into the Second Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Second Merger Agreement Amendment” and, together with the Original Merger Agreement and the First Merger Agreement Amendment, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provided for (1) the merger of Merger Sub 1, with and into Metuchen, with Metuchen surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (the “Metuchen Merger”) and (2) the merger of Merger Sub 2 with and into Neurotrope, with Neurotrope surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (the “Neurotrope Merger” and together with the Metuchen Merger, the “Mergers”). As a result of the Mergers, Metuchen and Neurotrope became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Petros, and Petros became a publicly traded corporation on December 1, 2020. On December 7, 2020, Neurotrope completed the spin-off of certain assets, whereby (i) any cash in excess of $20,000,000, subject to adjustment as provided in the Merger Agreement, and all of the operating assets and liabilities of Neurotrope not retained by Neurotrope in connection with the Mergers were contributed to Synaptogenix, Inc. (formerly known as Neurotrope Bioscience, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (“Synaptogenix”), and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Neurotrope.

The Mergers were accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Metuchen was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on an analysis of the criteria outlined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) and the facts and circumstances specific to the Mergers, including: (1) Metuchen Securityholders owned approximately 51.0% of the equity securities of Petros immediately following the closing of the transaction; (2) a majority of the board of directors of Petros are composed of directors designated by Metuchen under the terms of the Mergers; and (3) a majority of the existing members of Metuchen’s management are the management of Petros. The net assets of Metuchen are stated at historical costs in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded. Accordingly, the historical financial statements of Metuchen through November 30, 2020 became the Company’s historical financial statements, including the comparative prior periods. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include Metuchen, Petros and Neurotrope, Inc, after the spin-off discussed above, from December 1, 2020, the date the reverse recapitalization was consummated.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020, has been derived from audited financial statements as of that date. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to instructions, rules, and regulations prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. We believe that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes previously distributed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TIMM Medical, Inc. (“TIMM”), and Pos-T-Vac, LLC (“PTV”), subsidiaries of Metuchen, and Metuchen, a subsidiary of Petros. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Liquidity

The Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $14.6 million, negative working capital of approximately $16.3 million, including debt of $5.1 million maturing in 2021, and sustained cumulative losses attributable to common stockholders of $58.7 million. Our plans include, or may include, utilizing our cash and cash equivalents on hand, negotiating an extension of our debt arrangement and our liability due to Vivus as well as exploring additional ways to raise capital in addition to increasing cash flows from operations. While we are optimistic that we will be successful in our efforts to achieve our plan, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in doing so. As such, we obtained a continued support letter from our largest shareholder, JCP III SM AIV, L.P., (“the JCP Investor”) through May 17, 2022.

2)    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Such estimates include the adequacy of accounts receivable reserves, return reserves, inventory reserves, and assessment of long-lived assets, including intangible asset impairment, the determination of the fair value of the derivative liability, and the allocation of the purchase price in acquisitions, among others. Actual results could differ from these estimates and changes in these estimates are recorded when known.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the pharmaceutical industry including, but not limited to, uncertainties related to commercialization of competitor products, regulatory approvals, dependence on key products, dependence on key customers and suppliers, and protection of intellectual property rights.

9

In January 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which continues to rapidly evolve, “shelter in place” orders and other public health guidance measures were implemented across much of the United States, Europe and Asia, including in the locations of the Company’s offices, key vendors and partners. The pandemic has significantly impacted the economic conditions in the U.S. and globally as federal, state and local governments react to the public health crisis, creating significant uncertainties in the economy. At this time, the future trajectory of the COVID-19 outbreak remains uncertain, both in the United States and in other markets. While the Company anticipates that currently available vaccines will be widely distributed in the future, the timing and efficacy of such vaccines are uncertain. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the length or severity of the impact that the COVID-19 outbreak will have on its financial results, and the Company may experience a material adverse impact on its sales, results of operations, and cash flows in fiscal 2021.

During 2020, government regulations and the voluntary business practices of the Company and prescribing physicians have prevented in-person visits by sales representatives to physicians’ offices. The Company has taken steps to mitigate the negative impact on its businesses of such restrictions. In March 2020, the Company reduced its sales representative head count to reflect the lack of in-person visits. The Company has maintained a core sales team which continues to contact physicians via telephone and videoconference as well as continuing to have webinars provided by the Company’s key opinion leaders to other physicians and pharmacists. The Company anticipates rehiring and/or assigning representatives to cover sales territories as physician access resumes new normal levels. In response to the spread of COVID-19, in March 2020, the Company closed its administrative offices and as of March 31, 2021, they remain closed, with the Company’s employees continuing their work outside of the Company’s offices. The Company has selectively resumed in-person interactions by its customer-facing personnel in compliance with local and state restrictions. The Company also continues to engage with customers virtually as the Company seeks to continue to support healthcare professionals and patient care. However, the Company’s ability to engage in personal interactions with physicians and customers remains limited, and it is unknown when the Company’s offices will reopen, and these interactions will be fully resumed.

Revenue Recognition

Prescription Medication Sales

The Company’s prescription medication sales consist of sales of Stendra® in the U.S. for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction. Under ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 606”), the Company recognizes revenue from prescription medication sales when its performance obligations with a customer has been satisfied. In the contracts with its customers, the Company has identified a single performance obligation to provide Stendra® upon receipt of a customer order. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the Company’s customers obtain control of Stendra®, which is typically upon delivery. The Company invoices its customers after Stendra® has been delivered and invoice payments are generally due within 30 to 75 days of invoice date.

In determining the transaction price, a significant financing component does not exist since the timing from when the Company delivers Stendra® to when the customers pay for the product is typically less than one year. The Company records prescription medication sales net of any variable consideration, including but not limited to discounts, rebates, returns, chargebacks, and distribution fees. The Company uses the expected value method when estimating its variable consideration, unless terms are specified within contracts. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenues from sales of Stendra® are recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.

10

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for sales deductions were $8.2 million and $8.6 million, respectively. The most significant sales deductions included in this reserve relate to returns, contract rebates, and distribution service (“DSA”) fees. Our estimates are based on factors such as our direct and indirect customers’ buying patterns and the estimated resulting contractual deduction rates, historical experience, specific known market events and estimated future trends, current contractual and statutory requirements, industry data, estimated customer inventory levels, current contract sales terms with our direct and indirect customers, and other competitive factors. Significant judgment and estimation is required in developing the foregoing and other relevant assumptions. The most significant sales deductions are further described below.

Product Returns

Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return policy that generally allows its customers to return Stendra® and receive credit for product within six months prior to expiration date and up to one year after expiration date. The provision for returns is based upon the Company’s estimates for future Stendra® returns and historical experience. The provision of returns is part of the variable consideration recorded at the time revenue is recognized. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for product returns were $7.0 million and $7.1 million, respectively, and are included as a component of accrued expenses.

Contract Rebates, Coupon Redemptions and DSA Fees

The Company establishes contracts with wholesalers, chain stores, and indirect customers that provide for rebates, sales incentives, DSA fees and other allowances. Some customers receive rebates upon attaining established sales volumes. Direct rebates are generally rebates paid to direct purchasing customers based on a percentage applied to a direct customer’s purchases from us, including fees paid to wholesalers under our DSAs, as described below. Indirect rebates are rebates paid to indirect customers that have purchased our products from a wholesaler under a contract with us.

The Company has entered into DSAs with certain of our significant wholesaler customers that obligate the wholesalers, in exchange for fees paid by us, to: (i) manage the variability of their purchases and inventory levels within specified limits based on product demand and (ii) provide us with specific services, including the provision of periodic retail demand information and current inventory levels for our pharmaceutical products held at their warehouse locations.

Medical Device Sales

The Company’s medical device sales consist of domestic and international sales of men’s health products for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. The men’s health products do not require a prescription and include Vacuum Erection Devices, VenoSeal, and other related accessories. Under Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue from medical device sales when its performance obligations with its customers have been satisfied. In the contracts with its customers, the Company has identified a single performance obligation to provide medical devices upon receipt of a customer order. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the Company’s customers obtain control of the medical device, which is typically upon shipment. The Company invoices its customers after the medical devices have been shipped and invoice payments are generally due within 30 days of invoice date for domestic customers and 90 days for international customers.

In determining the transaction price, a significant financing component does not exist since the timing from when the Company delivers the medical devices to when the customers pay for the product is typically less than one year. The Company records medical device sales net of any variable consideration, including but not limited to returns. The Company uses the expected value method when estimating its variable consideration. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenues from the medical device sales are recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.

11

Product Returns

Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return policy that generally allows its customers to return medical devices and receive credit for products within 90 days of the sale. The provision for returns is based upon the Company’s estimates for future product returns and historical experience. The Company has not made significant changes to the judgments made in applying Topic 606. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for product returns for medical devices were not significant.

Contract Costs

In relation to customer contracts, the Company incurs costs to fulfill a contract but does not incur costs to obtain a contract. These costs to fulfill a contract do not meet the criteria for capitalization and are expensed as incurred. As such, the Company did not have any contract assets at March 31, 2021and December 31, 2020.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under U.S. GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

Financial instruments recognized at historical amounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets consist of cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current liabilities, and senior debt. The Company believes that the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The carrying value of senior debt as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 approximated fair value. The fair value of the senior debt was estimated by discounting to present value the scheduled coupon payments and principal repayment, using an appropriate fair market yield and is considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

In connection with the Mergers in December 2020, each security holder of Metuchen received an earnout consideration classified as a derivative liability to be paid in the form of Petros Common Stock. The Company estimated their fair value using a Monte Carlo Simulation approach. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the derivative liability as March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020 was $4.5 million and $9.9 million, respectively. See Note 10 Stockholders’ Equity.

12

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees and consultants in accordance with applicable accounting principles, which requires compensation expense related to stock-based transactions, including employee stock options and consultant warrants, to be measured and recognized in the financial statements based on a determination of the fair value of the stock options or warrants. The grant date fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) pricing model. Employee stock option and consulting expenses are recognized over the employee’s or consultant’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).

The Company’s option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the volatility and expected term. Any changes in these highly subjective assumptions can significantly impact stock-based compensation expense. See Note 11 Stock Options.

Income Taxes

Prior to the consummation of the Mergers, Metuchen was a limited liability company (“LLC”) for federal income tax purposes and had elected to be treated as a Partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. PTV is a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes. As such, all income tax consequences resulting from the operations were reported on the member’s income tax return. In addition, Timm was included in the Company’s structure where taxes were paid at the entity level.

Subsequent to the Mergers, Metuchen’s activity is included in the Company’s consolidated group. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, the Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period the rate change is enacted.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If the Company determines that it would be able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with FASB ASC No. 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740) on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the income tax expense line in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 no accrued interest or penalties are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

The Company computes basic net loss per common share by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the dilutive effects of stock options and warrants to purchase common shares. The Company computes diluted net loss per common share by dividing the net loss applicable to common share by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the potential dilutive effects of its convertible preferred stocks, stock options and warrants to purchase common shares, but such items are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because the impact of these items is anti-dilutive during periods of net loss, there was no difference between the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Note 13 Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Pending Adoption as of March 31, 2021

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13, together with a series of subsequently issued related ASUs, has been codified in Topic 326. Topic 326 establishes new requirements for companies to estimate expected credit losses when measuring certain financial assets, including accounts receivables. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

8)    Debt

Senior Debt

The following is a summary of the Company’s senior indebtedness at March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020:

	March 31, 2021		December 31, 2020
Principal balance	$	5,061,264	$	6,653,292
Plus: End of term fee		—		534,237
Less: Debt issuance costs		—		(12,500)
Total senior debt	$	5,061,264	$	7,175,029

On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Hercules, a third party, for a $35 million term loan (“Senior Debt”). The Senior Debt includes an additional Paid-In-Kind (“PIK”) interest that increases the outstanding principal on a monthly basis at an annual rate of 1.35% and a $787,500 end of term charge. The end of term charge is being recognized as interest expense and accreted over the term of the Senior Debt using the effective interest method.

On November 22, 2017, the Company amended its loan agreement with Hercules (“First Amendment”). The end of term charge was increased from $787,500 to $1,068,750

On April 13, 2020, the Company amended its loan agreement with Hercules. The amendment waived all financial covenant defaults for all periods since inception through the period ending March 31, 2020. The amendment also included the following changes:

● Extended the maturity date from October 1, 2020 to April 2021, which can be further extendable to December 1, 2021 upon achieving the Financing Milestone, as defined in the agreement.

● Increased the cash interest rate from the greater of (a) 10.75% or (b) 10.75% plus the US WSJ Prime minus 4.50% to the greater of (a) 11.50% or (b) 11.50% plus the US WSJ Prime minus 4.25%.

● Removed the PIK interest rate.

● Removed the prepayment penalty.

16

The end of term charge of $1,068,750 was partially extended with $534,375 paid on October 1, 2020 and $534,375 paid on February 1, 2021.

Effective September 30, 2020, the Company and Hercules entered into the Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (“Third Amendment”) to provide for interest only payments commencing on October 1, 2020 and continuing through December 22, 2020 unless the Company raised net cash proceeds of at least $25 million through an equity or debt financing or other transaction on or before December 21, 2020. The Third Amendment also amended the minimum cash, minimum net revenue and minimum EBITDA financial covenants. On that same date, Juggernaut Capital Partners III, L.P, an affiliate of the JCP Investor., Hercules and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. entered into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) to escrow funds amounting to approximately $1.5 million, an amount equal to the aggregate of certain principal payments due under the Loan Agreement, as amended. In connection with the consummation of the Mergers, the funds held in escrow were disbursed back to Juggernaut Capital Partners III, L.P. and the Escrow Agreement was terminated.

The Company satisfied the maturity date extension requirement pursuant to funds retained upon the closing of the Mergers in December 2020. As a result, the Senior Debt now has a maturity date of December 1, 2021. As of March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with its covenants.

Interest expense on the Senior Debt was as follows for the periods indicated:

	For the Three Months Ended

Subordinated Related Party Term Loans

Subordinated Related Party Term Loans Entered into During 2020

During, 2020, the Company entered into Subordinated Promissory Notes with the JCP Investor in the principal amount of 15.5 million. The maturity date of the Subordinated Promissory Notes was April 2, 2021 and they had PIK interest that increases the outstanding principal on a daily basis at an annual rate of 20%.

In connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement on May 17, 2020, the JCP Investor, Neurotrope and Metuchen entered into a Note Conversion and Loan Repayment Agreement pursuant to which, the JCP Investor agreed to convert all of the above outstanding subordinated promissory notes and accrued PIK interest held by Juggernaut Capital Partners LLP and the JCP Investor, into Petros common stock in connection with the consummation of the Mergers on December 1, 2020, and the Subordinated Promissory Notes were terminated. Accordingly, the principal balance of the Subordinated Promissory Notes and accrued PIK interest was $0 as of both March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020.

Interest expense on this debt was $76,282 comprised entirely of PIK interest, for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

9)    Members’ Capital

(a)    Capitalization

Prior to September 16, 2019, the Company authorized 100 units of Class A Common Units (the “Class A Units”) to be issued and outstanding. In addition, there were Restricted Member Units (“RMU’s”) that were designated as a class of incentive units (also known as “Class B Units”).

On September 16, 2019, the Company amended and restated its operating agreement creating the rights and preferences relating to the Preferred Units and Common Units mentioned in the Private Placement Offering below. The issued and outstanding Preferred Units and Common Units were exchanged for Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Mergers.

(b)    Preferred Units

A holder of a Preferred Unit was entitled to vote on any matter requiring the approval of such units. In addition, the Preferred Unit holders were entitled to distributions, after adjustment for specific items, for each fiscal year.

The following actions required the prior consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Preferred Units: (a) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the amended and restated operating agreement (if such amendment would adversely affect any of the rights or preferences of the Preferred Units); (b) authorize or create membership interests that have a preference over the Preferred Units as to dividends or liquidation; (c) declare or pay any dividends or distributions; (d) dissolve or liquidate (in whole or in part), consolidate, merge, convey, lease, sell, or transfer all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or purchase or otherwise acquire (directly or indirectly) all or substantially all of the assets or equity interest issued by another company; or file a petition for bankruptcy or receivership of the Company; (e) repurchase or redeem any Membership Interests; or (f) enter into any agreement, commitment or arrangement to do any of the foregoing. See also Note 12 Section (f) for further discussion of Preferred Units.

(c)    Common Units (formerly known as Class A Units)

A holder of a Common Unit was entitled to vote on any matter requiring the approval of such units. In addition, the Common Unit holders were entitled to distributions, after adjustment for specific items, for each fiscal year.

Effective with the amended and restated operating agreement on August 26, 2019, each Class A Unit was exchanged for 10,000 Common Units. There was no change to the ownership percentages as a result of the exchange and the rights and privileges of Common Unit holders is consistent with that of the Class A Unit.

(d)    Class B Units

As of September 16, 2019, none of the Class B Units had been issued. Effective with the amended and restated operating agreement on September 16, 2019, the Class B Units were no longer an authorized membership interest of the Company.

(e)    Liquidation

Upon liquidation of the Company or upon any Company sale, the Company was required to pay, hold, or distribute, or cause to be paid, held or distributed, the proceeds thereof as follows: (a) first, to the holders of Preferred Units, pro rata in proportion to the number of Preferred Units held by such holders, until the holders of such Preferred Units receive in respect of each Preferred Unit held by them, the preferred liquidation preference amount; (b) second, to the holders of Common Units, pro rata in proportion to the number of Common Units held by such holders, the remaining proceeds available for distribution.

18

10)     Stockholders’ Equity

Upon consummation of the Mergers, each outstanding Common Unit or Preferred Unit of Metuchen was exchanged for a number of shares of Petros common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Petros Common Stock”), equal to 0.4968, which resulted in an aggregate of 4,949,610 shares of Petros Common Stock issued to the holders of Metuchen units in the Mergers. In addition, each holder of Neurotrope common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Neurotrope Common Stock”) received one (1) share of Petros Common Stock for every five (5) shares of Neurotrope Common Stock held, and each holder of Neurotrope preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Neurotrope Preferred Stock”) received one (1) share of Petros preferred stock (the “Petros Preferred Stock”) for every one (1) share of Neurotrope Preferred Stock held. In addition, each holder of outstanding options to purchase Neurotrope Common Stock or outstanding warrants to purchase Neurotrope Common Stock that were not previously exercised prior to the consummation of the Mergers was converted into equivalent options and warrants to purchase one (1) share of Petros Common Stock for every five (5) shares of Neurotrope Common Stock outstanding pursuant to such options or warrants.

As a result of the Mergers, the former Neurotrope shareholders collectively owned approximately 4,758,045 shares of Petros Common Stock and 500 shares of Petros Preferred Stock and the former Metuchen unit holders collectively owned 4,949,610 shares of Petros Common Stock. Accordingly, the former Metuchen unit holders collectively owned approximately 51% of Petros and the former Neurotrope shareholders collectively owned approximately 49% of Petros.

On January 26, 2021, 500 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock were converted into 60,606 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Effective January 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Marketing and Consulting Agreement (the “Agreement”) with CorProminence, LLC (the “Consultant”) for certain shareholder information and relation services. The term of the Agreement is for one year with automatic consecutive one-year renewal terms. As consideration for the shareholder information and relation services, the Company will pay the Consultant a monthly retainer of $7,500 and issued 30,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to the Consultant on March 24, 2021 (the “Grant Date”). The restricted shares vested immediately on the Grant Date.

Effective April 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Consulting and Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Tania King, an employee of Juggernaut Capital Partners LLP, for certain services. The term of the Agreement is indefinite but may be terminated by either party, with or without cause. As consideration for the consulting and advisory services, the Company will pay Ms. King a monthly fee of $4,000, an additional $12,000 payment included with the first monthly fee for services provided since January 1, 2021, and issue restricted stock units for shares of the Company’s common stock (“RSU’s”) with a cash value of $72,000 as of the date of the grant (the “Grant Date”). The RSU’s shall vest and settle in full on the one-year anniversary of the grant date.

Backstop Agreement

In connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement, Neurotrope and an affiliated entity of the JCP Investor entered into a Backstop Agreement pursuant to which Juggernaut agreed to contribute to Metuchen at the closing of the Mergers an amount equal to the Working Capital Shortfall Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement), if any, as determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement, up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $6,000,000 (the “Commitment Cap”). Following the closing of the Mergers and until the one-year anniversary of the closing of the Mergers (the “Anniversary Date”), Juggernaut agreed to contribute, or cause an affiliate to contribute, to Petros an amount equal to the Commitment Cap less the Working Capital Shortfall Amount (the “Post-Closing Commitment”) on the Anniversary Date; provided, however, that, (a) in the event that, at any time between the closing of the Mergers and the Anniversary Date, the closing price per share of Petros’s Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market or any other securities exchanges on which the Petros Common Stock is then traded equals or exceeds $2.175 for a period of ten consecutive trading days, then the Post-Closing Commitment shall be reduced by fifty percent (50%) and (b) in the event that, at any time between the closing of the Mergers and the Anniversary Date, the closing price per share of Petros’s Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market or any other securities exchanges on which the Petros Common Stock is then traded equals or exceeds $2.5375 for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days, then the Post-Closing Commitment shall be $0.

19

Pursuant to the Backstop Agreement and upon closing of the Mergers, Juggernaut paid the Company $2.6 million for the Working Capital Shortfall Amount, which was recorded in equity in relation to the net proceeds received from the reverse capitalization.

Contingent Consideration

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each security holder of Metuchen received a right to receive such security holder’s pro rata stock of an aggregate of 14,232,090 stocks of Petros Common Stock potentially issuable upon the achievement of certain milestones set forth in the Merger Agreement. The milestones are for the achievement of stock price and market capitalization, as defined over a two-year period.

Milestone Earnout Payments

In connection with the Mergers, each security holder of Metuchen received an equity classified earnout consideration to be paid in the form of Petros Common Stock if the Closing Price (as defined in the Merger Agreement) per share of stock of Petros’ Common Stock equals or exceeds certain milestones set forth in the Merger Agreement, as discussed below. Each milestone earnout payment is only achievable and payable one time and upon attainment of such milestone earnout payment. In no event will the sum of the milestone earnout payments be greater than 4,000,000 shares of Petros Common Stock. As of March 31, 2021, the milestones have not been achieved.

If at any time following the Closing (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and prior to the one-year anniversary of the Closing, the Closing Price per share of Petros Common Stock is, for a period of twenty (20) trading days during any thirty (30) consecutive trading day period, greater than or equal to:

● $8.00 - then the earnout payment will be equal to 1,000,000 shares of Petros Common Stock.

● $10.00 - then the earnout payment will be equal to 1,000,000 shares of Petros Common Stock.

11)    Stock Options

The Company established the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Compensation plan (the “2020 Plan”) which provides for the grants of awards to our directors, officers, employees, and consultants. The 2020 Plan authorizes the grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, stock units and other stock-based awards and cash-based awards. As of March 31, 2021 there were 1,078,346 shares authorized, and 288,346 shares available for issuance, under the 2020 Plan.

Upon the consummation of the Mergers as disclosed in Note 1, Neurotrope options issued and outstanding as of December 1, 2020 were converted into equivalent options to purchase stocks of Petros common stock and were adjusted to give effect to the Exchange Ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement. The following is a summary of stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2021:

Upon the consummation of the Mergers as disclosed in Note 1, the vesting of former Neurotrope stock options in accordance with their terms was accelerated due to a change in control pursuant to the terms of the Neurotrope, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan and the Neurotrope, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the change in control, Neurotrope extended the period to exercise the stock options to be one-year from the closing of the Mergers. Accordingly, the Company did not record any stock-based compensation expense in connection with these stock options during the period from December 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020.

On February 19, 2021, Fady Boctor, the President and Chief Commercial Officer of the Company, was granted an option to purchase 215,669 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $3.74 per share. The option vested 50% as of February 19, 2021, the date of grant, and the remainder shall vest in equal installments on the first and second anniversary thereof.

On April 8, 2021, in connection with the Directors’ appointment to the Board upon the Company becoming an independent publicly traded company on December 1, 2020, the Company awarded each of the five Directors an initial grant of options (the “Initial Grant”) to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $3.18 per share. The shares of common stock underlying the options vested 25% on the date of grant, 25% shall vest upon the six-month anniversary of the date of grant and the remainder shall vest in equal installments over the following four fiscal quarters.

In addition, additional RSUs, valued at $296,000, were granted to five directors on April 8, 2021 when the closing price was $3.18 per share, resulting in 93,082 RSUs issued. As of April 23, 2021, the 2020 Plan is short of shares to cover all the board grants and options by 78,037 shares.

13)    Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Upon the consummation of the Mergers on December 1, 2020, the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2020 has been calculated using the number of common units outstanding of Metuchen from January 1, 2020 through the March 31, 2020 multiplied by the exchange ratio used in the transaction.

14)   Marketing, Licensing and Distribution Agreements

(a)    Vivus

On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into a License and Commercialization Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Vivus, Inc, (“Vivus”) to purchase and receive the license for the commercialization and exploitation of Stendra® for a one-time fee of $70 million, and for an additional $0.8 million, the Company also acquired the current Stendra® product and sample inventories as of September 30, 2016 that were owned by Vivus. The License Agreement gives the Company the right to sell Stendra® in the U.S and its territories, Canada, South America, and India. In December 2000, Vivus originally was granted the license from Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation (“MTPC”) to develop, market, and manufacture Stendra®. Stendra® was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in April 2012 to treat male erectile dysfunction.

The Company will pay MTPC a royalty of 5% on the first $500 million of net sales and 6% of net sales thereafter. In consideration for the trademark assignment and the use of the trademarks associated with the product and the Vivus technology, the Company shall (a) during the first, second, and third years following the expiration of the Royalty Period in a particular country in the Company’s territory, pay to Vivus a royalty equal to 2% of the net sales of products in such territory; and (b) following the fourth and fifth years following the end of the Royalty Period in such territory, pay to Vivus a royalty equal to 1% of the net sales of products in such territory. Thereafter, no further royalties shall be owed with respect to net sales of Stendra® in such territory.

In addition, the Company will be responsible for a pro-rata portion of a $6 million milestone payment to be paid once $250 million in sales has been reached on the separate revenue stream of Stendra®. Should the $250 million of sales threshold be reached, the Company will be responsible for $3.2 million of the milestone payment.

24

In connection with the License Agreement, the Company and Vivus also entered into a Supply Agreement on the effective date of the License Agreement. The Supply Agreement states that Vivus will initially manufacture, test, and supply the product to the Company or its designee, directly or through one or more third parties. The agreement is effective through December 31, 2021. On July 7, 2020, Vivus announced that it has completed the solicitation of an in-court prepackaged plan of reorganization, under which IEH Biopharma LLC will take 100% ownership of Vivus. The Company provided Vivus with notice of termination of the supply agreement on September 30, 2019, effective on September 30. 2021. The Company is required to make future minimum annual purchases of Stendra® under the Supply Agreement as follows (based on current prices, however, subject to annual price increases). As of March 31, 2021, the minimum purchase obligation is estimated to be $4.1 million in 2021.

Stendra® can be purchased by written purchase orders submitted to Vivus at least 125 days in advance of the desired shipment date. For each quarter, the Company is required to submit purchase orders for at least 90% of the quantities in the forecast above. Vivus will have no obligation to supply Stendra® in excess of 120% of the quantity specified above but will use reasonable efforts.

As of both March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company has $14.2 million of accrued inventory purchases related to the Company’s minimum purchase obligations with Vivus for raw material or API inventory. As API inventory is not a finished good, the Company does not have title to the product and classifies API Inventory in either other current assets or other assets, depending on whether the Company expects to take title to the product within one year from the date of the financial statements. As of both March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, there was $1.3 million included in other current assets (see Note 5 Prepaid and Other Current Assets). As of both March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, $11.1 million included in other assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company reviews its inventory levels and purchase commitments for excess amounts that it is required to purchase but projects it will not be able to sell prior to product expiry. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has not recorded any additional reserve to reduce the cost of API inventory.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred royalties to MTPC for Stendra of $160,032 and $39,913, respectively. Royalties incurred were included in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had a payable for royalties of $168,760 and $8,728, respectively, which is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Royalties incurred were included in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The license agreement between MTPC and Vivus (“MTPC License”) contains certain termination rights that would allow MTPC to terminate the agreement if Vivus were to breach any of the terms of the MTPC License or become insolvent or bankrupt. In the event that MTPC terminates the MTPC License with Vivus because of any contractual breach the Company has step-in rights with MTPC, which would allow the Company to continue to sell Stendra®.

(b)    Hybrid

In March 2020, the Company acquired the exclusive license to H100™ from Hybrid. H100™ is a topical candidate with at least one active ingredient and potentially a combination of ingredients responsible for the improvement of penile curvature during the acute phase of Peyronie’s disease. We paid an initial license fee of $100,000, with an additional $900,000 payment due upon obtainment of orphan indication for H100™ and termination of Hybrid’s existing agreement with a compounding pharmacy, and additional annual payments of $125,000, $150,000 and $200,000 due on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the license agreement and $250,000 annual payments due thereafter. The Company is also required to make a $1,000,000 payment upon first commercial sale and a sliding scale of percentage payments on net sales in the low single digits. Annual anniversary payments will not be required after commercialization. The Company is also obligated to make royalty payments between 3-6% of any net sales. In addition, the Company may terminate at any time after first anniversary, without cause, upon ninety (90) days’ notice.

25

The initial license fee of $100,000 and an extension payment of $100,000 has been recorded in research and development during the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company has treated the acquisition as an asset acquisition and has concluded that the asset acquired and the upfront payment should be expensed as it was considered an IPR&D asset with no alternative future uses.

On September 24, 2020, the Company and Hybrid entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which the term of the license agreement was extended for an additional six months to March 24, 2021. In consideration for the extension, the Company paid Hybrid $50,000 in October 2020 and an additional $100,000 in December 2020. On March 31, 2021, the Company and Hybrid, entered into a second letter agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the Second Period (as defined in the License Agreement) for an additional six (6) months to September 24, 2021. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay Hybrid a one-time, non-creditable and non-refundable payment of $200,000, which was payable within seven calendar days of entering into the agreement.

15)  Commitments and Contingencies

(a)    Employment Agreements

The Company has employment agreements with certain executive officers and key employees that provide for, among other things, salary and performance bonuses.

In connection with entry into the Merger Agreement Amendment, Neurotrope, Neurotrope Bioscience, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Neurotrope) and Metuchen entered into an Employee Lease Agreement pursuant to which Neurotrope and Neurotrope Bioscience, Inc. agreed to lease the services of Dr. Charles Ryan to Metuchen prior to the Closing. Dr. Ryan was required to devote no more than 75% of his working time performing services to Metuchen under the Employee Lease Agreement and Metuchen paid 75% of the costs associated with Dr. Ryan’s employment from the period beginning on June 1, 2020 through the Closing, including but not limited to, the costs for all compensation and benefits paid to, for or on behalf of Dr. Ryan (the “Fees”). Upon consummation of the Mergers, Metuchen paid approximately $0.2 million for the Fees pursuant to the Employee Lease Agreement, which reduced the amount of cash that Petros retained following the Closing.

In connection with the consummation of the Mergers, on December 24, 2020, the Company and Mr. Keith Lavan entered into a Separation Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Lavan resigned as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and agreed to serve as an advisor to the Company through December 31, 2020 (the “Separation Date”). Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, in addition to other benefits, Mr. Lavan received a stay-on bonus of $50,000 for continuing to remain employed by the Company through the Separation Date. For his services as an advisor, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Lavan an amount equal to 50% of his base salary as of immediately prior to the Separation Date. The Company paid 70% of such amount on January 15, 2021 and 30% of such amount in equal installments from the Separation Date through June 30, 2021. In addition, Mr. Lavan executed a general release of liabilities in favor of the Company.

(b)    Legal Proceedings

On July 14, 2020, Greg Ford, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, was terminated. On July 14, 2020, Mr. Ford, through his attorney, claimed that he was entitled to severance pay pursuant to an employment agreement following the termination of his employment on that same date. This claim is currently at an early stage where the Company is unable to determine the likelihood of any unfavorable outcome.

The Company is not currently involved in any other significant claims or legal actions that, in the opinion of management, will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations, financial position or cash flows.

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 (“MD&A”) is designed to provide a reader of Petros’ financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of management on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect future results. In certain instances, references are made to relevant sections of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to direct the reader to a further detailed discussion. This section should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This MD&A contains forward-looking statements reflecting Petros’ current expectations, whose actual outcomes involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those stated in or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

Overview

Petros is a pharmaceutical company focused on men’s health therapeutics, consisting of wholly owned subsidiaries, Metuchen Pharmaceuticals, LLC (“Metuchen”), TIMM Medical, Inc. (“TIMM Medical”), and Pos-T-Vac, LLC (“PTV”). On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into a License and Commercialization Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Vivus, Inc (“Vivus”) to purchase and receive the license for the commercialization and development of Stendra® for a one-time fee of $70 million. The License Agreement gives the Company the right to sell Stendra® in the U.S and its territories, Canada, South America, and India. Stendra® is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved PDE-5 inhibitor prescription medication for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (“ED”) and is the only patent protected PDE-5 inhibitor on the market. Stendra® offers the ED therapeutic landscape a valuable addition as an oral ED therapy that may be taken as early as approximately 15 minutes prior to sexual engagement, with or without food when using the 100mg or 200mg dosing (does not apply to 50mg dosing).

Metuchen was founded by Joseph J. Krivulka, an experienced pharmaceutical executive who held several key leadership positions at leading pharmaceutical companies such as Mylan Laboratories Inc. and its subsidiary Bertek Inc., and was also the co-founder of Reliant Pharmaceuticals, which was sold to GlaxoSmithKline in 2007 for $1.65 billion. During the period from Metuchen’s inception in 2016 through 2018, the founder decided to outsource the sales and marketing function to an affiliated contractor. The level of performance expected from this affiliated contractor was not realized. In 2018, the founder passed away which caused significant disruption to the business. In 2019, Metuchen terminated this affiliate contractor and established its own internal sales, marketing, and trade distribution functions for Stendra®. Also in 2019, Metuchen deployed a specialized key account sales model augmented by a national non-personal promotion campaign reaching nearly 30,000 healthcare professionals. Metuchen also enhanced its digital campaigns designed to create awareness among patients and its partners. Additionally, Metuchen engaged in a wide array of specialty medical conferences including presentations at educational product theaters and launched a national savings coupon for enhanced product access. Metuchen believes that these activities have established a framework for growth into 2021 and beyond. Following a year of internal management of marketing, sales and trade distribution functions, we believe the Company is well-positioned for a strong, multi-channel sales and marketing campaign in 2021 and beyond.

30

In addition to ED products, Petros is committed to identifying and developing other pharmaceuticals to advance men’s health. In March 2020, Petros acquired an exclusive global license (the “Hybrid License”) for the development and commercialization of H100™ from Hybrid Medical LLC (“Hybrid”). H100™ is a novel and patented topical formulation candidate for the treatment of acute Peyronie’s disease. Peyronie’s disease is a condition that occurs upon penile tissue disruption often caused by sexual activity or injury, healing into collagen-based scars that may ultimately harden and cause penile deformity. On September 24, 2020, the Company and Hybrid entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which the term of the license agreement was extended for an additional six months to March 24, 2021. In consideration for the extension, the Company paid Hybrid $50,000 in October 2020 and an additional $100,000 in December 2020. On March 31, 2021, the Company and Hybrid, entered into a second letter agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the Second Period (as defined in the License Agreement) for an additional six (6) months to September 24, 2021. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay Hybrid a one-time, non-creditable and non-refundable payment of $200,000, which was payable within seven calendar days of entering into the agreement.

Impact of COVID-19

In January 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which continues to rapidly evolve, “shelter in place” orders and other public health guidance measures were implemented across much of the United States, Europe and Asia, including in the locations of the Company’s offices, key vendors and partners. The pandemic has significantly impacted the economic conditions in the U.S. and globally as federal, state and local governments react to the public health crisis, creating significant uncertainties in the economy. At this time, the future trajectory of the COVID-19 outbreak remains uncertain, both in the United States and in other markets. While the Company anticipates that the currently available vaccines will be widely distributed in the future, the timing and efficacy of such vaccines are uncertain. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the length or severity of the impact that the COVID-19 outbreak will have on its financial results, and the Company may experience a material adverse impact on its sales, results of operations, and cash flows in fiscal 2021.

During 2020, government regulations and the voluntary business practices of the Company and prescribing physicians have prevented in-person visits by sales representatives to physicians’ offices. The Company has taken steps to mitigate the negative impact on its businesses of such restrictions. In March 2020, the Company reduced our sales representative head count to reflect the lack of in-person visits. The Company has maintained a core sales team which continues to contact physicians via telephone and videoconference as well as continuing to have webinars provided by the Company’s key opinion leaders to other physicians and pharmacists. The Company anticipates rehiring and/or assigning representatives to cover sales territories as physician access resumes new normal levels. In response to the spread of COVID-19, in March 2020, the Company closed its administrative offices and as of March 31, 2021, they remain closed, with the Company’s employees continuing their work outside of the Company’s offices. The Company has selectively resumed in-person interactions by its customer-facing personnel in compliance with local and state restrictions. The Company also continues to engage with customers virtually as the Company seeks to continue to support healthcare professionals and patient care. However, the Company’s ability to engage in personal interactions with physicians and customers remains limited, and it is unknown when the Company’s offices will reopen, and these interactions will be fully resumed.

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Petros Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Petros” or the “Company”) was organized as a Delaware corporation on May 14, 2020 for the purpose of effecting the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 17, 2020 (the “Original Merger Agreement”), by and between Petros, Neurotrope, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Neurotrope”), PM Merger Sub 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (“Merger Sub 1”), PN Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (“Merger Sub 2”), and Metuchen Pharmaceuticals LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Metuchen”). On July 23, 2020, the parties to the Merger Agreement entered into the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “First Merger Agreement Amendment”) and on September 30, 2020, the parties to the Original Merger Agreement entered into the Second Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Second Merger Agreement Amendment” and, together with the Original Merger Agreement and the First Merger Agreement Amendment, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provided for (1) the merger of Merger Sub 1, with and into Metuchen, with Metuchen surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (the “Metuchen Merger”) and (2) the merger of Merger Sub 2 with and into Neurotrope, with Neurotrope surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (the “Neurotrope Merger” and together with the Metuchen Merger, the “Mergers”). As a result of the Mergers, Metuchen and Neurotrope became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Petros, and Petros became a publicly traded corporation on December 1, 2020.

On December 7, 2020, Neurotrope completed the spin-off of certain assets, whereby (i) any cash in excess of $20,000,000, subject to adjustment as provided in the Merger Agreement, and all of the operating assets and liabilities of Neurotrope not retained by Neurotrope in connection with the Mergers were contributed to Synaptogenix, Inc. (formerly known as Neurotrope Bioscience, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (“Synaptogenix”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Neurotrope and (ii) holders of record of Neurotrope common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, Neurotrope preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share and certain warrants as of November 30, 2020 received a pro rata distribution of common stock of Synaptogenix, resulting in a separate, independent publicly traded company.

The Mergers were accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Metuchen was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on an analysis of the criteria outlined in the FASB’s ASC No. 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), and the facts and circumstances specific to the Mergers, including: (1) Metuchen Securityholders owned approximately 51.0% of Neurotrope and Metuchen at closing of the equity securities of the combined company immediately following the closing of the transaction; (2) a majority of the board of directors of the combined company are composed of directors designated by Metuchen under the terms of the Mergers; and (3) a majority of the existing members of Metuchen’s management are the management of the combined company. The net assets of Metuchen are stated at historical costs in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded. Accordingly, the historical financial statements of Metuchen through November 30, 2020 became the Company’s historical financial statements, including the comparative prior periods. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of Petros from December 1, 2020, the date the reverse recapitalization was consummated.

The Company manages its operations through two segments. The Company’s two segments, Prescription Medications and Medical Devices, focus on the treatment of male ED. The Prescription Medications segment consists primarily of Stendra®, which is sold generally in the United States. Expenses related to the development of H100™, which is in the early stages of development and has not yet sought FDA approval to begin Phase 1 clinical trials, will be within the Prescription Medications segment. The Medical Devices segment consists primarily of vacuum erection devices, which are sold domestically and internationally.

Licensing and Distribution

The Company acquired the rights to Stendra® avanafil on September 30, 2016 when it entered into the License Agreement with Vivus to purchase and receive the license for the commercialization and exploitation of Stendra® avanafil for a one-time fee of $70 million. The License Agreement gives the Company the exclusive right to sell avanafil in the U.S. and its territories, as well as Canada, South America, and India. In December 2000, Vivus originally was granted the license from Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation (“MTPC”) to develop, market, and manufacture Stendra®. Stendra® was approved by the FDA in April 2012 to treat male ED.

32

The Company will pay MTPC a royalty of 5% on the first $500 million of net sales and 6% of net sales thereafter until the expiration of the applicable patent in a particular country. The last scheduled patent expiration is in April 2025. In consideration for the trademark assignment and the use of the trademarks associated with Stendra® and the Vivus technology, the Company shall (a) during the first, second, and third years following the expiration of the royalty period in a particular country in the Company’s territory, pay to Vivus a royalty equal to 2% of the net sales of Stendra® in such territory; and (b) following the fourth and fifth years following the end of the royalty period in such territory, pay to Vivus a royalty equal to 1% of the net sales of Stendra® in such territory. After the royalty period, no further royalties shall be owed with respect to net sales of Stendra® in such territory. In addition, the Company will be responsible for a pro-rata portion of a one-time $6 million milestone payment to be paid once $250 million in sales has been reached on the separate revenue stream of Stendra® during any calendar year.

In connection with the License Agreement, the Company and Vivus also entered into the Vivus Supply Agreement on the effective date of the License Agreement. As part of the License Agreement, the Company also acquired Vivus’ Stendra® avanafil product and sample inventories as of September 30, 2016, for an additional $0.8 million. The Vivus Supply Agreement provides that Vivus will test, supply and provide the product to the Company or its designee, directly or through one or more third parties until September 30, 2021. During the term of the Vivus Supply Agreement, the Company is required to purchase minimum annual quantities from Vivus. Vivus, in turn, procures the product from a third-party manufacturer.

In December of 2020, Vivus obtained approval of an in-court prepackaged plan of reorganization, under which IEH Biopharma LLC (“IEH”) obtained 100% ownership of Vivus (the “Prepackaged Plan”), and IEH assumed VIVUS’ contractual obligations under the Supply Agreement. The license agreement between MTPC and Vivus (“MTPC License”) contains certain termination rights that will allow MTPC to terminate the agreement if Vivus were to breach any of the terms of the MTPC License or become insolvent or bankrupt. In the event that MTPC terminates the MTPC License with Vivus because of any contractual breach the Company has step-in rights with MTPC, which would allow the Company to continue to sell Stendra®.

On March 27, 2018, the Company entered into a Sublicense Agreement with Acerus Pharmaceuticals Corporation (“Acerus”) whereby the Company granted to Acerus an exclusive sublicense in Canada for, among other things, the development and commercialization of Stendra® avanafil for a one-time fee of $100,000. The Company is entitled to receive an additional fee of $400,000 if Stendra® is approved by Canadian regulators, as well as commercial milestone payments and royalty fees of 12% of net sales. The agreement remains in effect. In August 2018, the Company entered into the Acerus Supply Agreement, pursuant to which Acerus will purchase the product from the Company so long as the Acerus Sublicense Agreement remains in effect.

In March 2020, we entered into the Hybrid License for the development and commercialization of H100™ from Hybrid. H100™ is a topical candidate with at least one active ingredient and potentially a combination of ingredients responsible for the improvement of penile curvature during the acute phase of Peyronie’s disease. We paid an initial license fee of $100,000 and additional payments of $250,000, with additional annual milestone payments of $125,000, $150,000 and $200,000 on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the entry into the Hybrid License and $250,000 annual payments due thereafter. On September 24, 2020, the Company and Hybrid entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which the term of the license agreement was extended for an additional six months to March 24, 2021. In consideration for the extension, the Company paid Hybrid $50,000 in October 2020 and an additional $100,000 in December 2020. On March 31, 2021, the Company and Hybrid, entered into a second letter agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the Second Period (as defined in the License Agreement) for an additional six (6) months to September 24, 2021. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay Hybrid a one-time, non-creditable and non-refundable payment of two hundred thousand U.S. Dollars ($200,000), which was payable within seven calendar days of entering into the agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain of our more critical accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our judgments, including but not limited to those related to revenue recognition, collectability of accounts receivable, inventory valuation and obsolescence, intangibles, income taxes, litigation, and contingencies. We use historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for our judgments and making these estimates. Because future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Any changes in those estimates will be reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements as they occur. While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in “Part I; Item 1. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data; Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and in “Part II; Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data; Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, we believe that the following accounting policies and estimates are most critical to a full understanding and evaluation of our reported financial results. The critical accounting policies addressed below reflect our most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. We have reviewed these critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligations with its customers have been satisfied. In the contracts with its customers, the Company has identified a single performance obligation to provide either its prescription medication or medical devices upon receipt of a customer order. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the Company’s customers obtain control of the prescription medication or medical device, which is typically upon delivery.

In determining the transaction price, a significant financing component does not exist since the timing from when the Company delivers either the prescription medication or medical device to when the customers pay for the product is typically less than one year. The Company records sales net of any variable consideration, including but not limited to discounts, rebates, returns, chargebacks, and distribution fees. The Company uses the expected value method when estimating its variable consideration, unless terms are specified within contracts. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenues from sales are recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.

The most significant sales deductions relate to contract rebates and coupon redemptions, and distribution service fees (“DSA fees”). Our estimates are based on factors such as our direct and indirect customers’ buying patterns and the estimated resulting contractual deduction rates, historical experience, specific known market events and estimated future trends, current contractual and statutory requirements, industry data, estimated customer inventory levels, current contract sales terms with our direct and indirect customers, and other competitive factors. Significant judgment and estimation is required in developing the foregoing and other relevant assumptions.

Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return policy that generally allows its customers to return either the prescription medication or medical device and receive credit for product. The provision for returns is based upon the Company’s estimates for future returns and historical experience. The provision of returns is part of the variable consideration recorded at the time revenue is recognized.

34

Accounts Receivable

The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of chargebacks, DSA fees, and cash discounts. Management determines each allowance based on historical experience along with the present knowledge of potentially uncollectible accounts.

Inventory

Inventories consist of finished goods held for sale and raw materials. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are adjusted for excess and obsolescence. Evaluation of excess inventory includes such factors as expiry date, inventory turnover, and management’s assessment of current product demand.

Fair Value Measurements

Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

In connection with the Mergers in December 2020, each security holder of Metuchen received a liability classified earnout consideration to be paid in the form of Petros Common Stock. The Company estimated their fair value using a Monte Carlo Simulation approach. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

Intangibles

The Company accounts for recognized intangible assets at cost. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over the useful life which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows. Intangible assets are amortized using an accelerated method based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are consumed. The Company reviews the carrying value and useful lives of its intangible assets with definite lives whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable or the period over which they should be amortized has changed. When indicators of impairment exist, the Company determines whether the estimated undiscounted sum of the future cash flows of such assets is less than their carrying amounts. If less, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount, if any, by which the carrying amount of such assets exceeds their respective fair values. The Company evaluates the remaining useful life of each intangible asset that is being amortized during each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of the intangible asset’s remaining useful life has changed, the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over that revised remaining useful life.

Results of Operations

The impact on our results of COVID-19 and related changes in economic conditions, including changes to consumer spending resulting from the rapid rise in local and national unemployment rates, are highly uncertain and, in many instances, outside of our control. The duration and severity of the direct and indirect effects of COVID-19 continue to evolve and in ways that are difficult to anticipate. There are numerous uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic that have impacted our ability to forecast our future operations as a company. The extent to which COVID-19 will affect our business, financial position and operating results in the future cannot be predicted with certainty; however, any such impact could be material. COVID-19 could also increase the degree to which our results, including the results of our business segments, fluctuate in the future.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 (Unaudited)

The following table sets forth a summary of our statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $4,075,606, composed of $3,200,647 of net sales from Prescription Medicines and net sales of $874,959 from Medical Devices.

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $1,791,921, composed of $798,257 of net sales from Prescription Medicines and net sales of $993,664 from Medical Devices.

36

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, gross sales to customers representing 10% or more of the Company’s total gross sales included one customer that represented approximately 88% of total gross sales.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, gross sales from customers representing 10% or more of the Company’s total gross sales included one customer that represented approximately 82% of total gross sales.

Prescription Medicines sales consist of sales of Stendra® in the U.S. for the treatment of male ED. Stendra® is primarily sold directly to the one customer described above and resold through three main wholesalers, which collectively accounted for approximately 80% of Stendra® net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Individually, sales to the three main wholesalers either from the one customer described above or directly, accounted for 31%, 24%, and 25% of Stendra® net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Medical Device sales consist of domestic and international sales of men’s health products for the treatment of ED. The men’s health products do not require a prescription and include Vacuum Erection Devices (“VEDs and related accessories”).

Net sales were 2,283,685, or 127% higher during three months ended March 31, 2021 than in the same period in 2020, consisting of a $2,402,390 increase in the net sales of Stendra® and a $118,705 decrease in Medical Device Sales. The increase in net sales in Stendra® was substantially due to higher wholesaler demand as the market began to recover from the implications of the 2019 FDA warning letter that impacted the Company's ability to promote Stendra® in the 1st quarter of 2020 and the beginning of a recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic in the 1st quarter of 2021. This increased demand was also the result of timing of orders between March and April, as compared to the same period from the prior year. The decrease in net sales for our Medical Devices segment was attributable to the discontinuation of co-promotion activities and lower sales of certain products.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $643,386, composed of $389,281 of cost of sales for our Prescription Medicines segment and $254,105 for our Medical Devices segment.

Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $784,035, composed of $501,418 of cost of sales for our Prescription Medicines segment and $282,617 for our Medical Devices segment.

Cost of sales for the Prescription Medicine segment for the three months ended March 31, 2021 consisted of 12% inventory obsolescence reserves, 37% third-party product cost of sales, 41% royalty expenses, and 10% third-party logistics provider order fulfillment and shipping costs.

Cost of sales for the Medical Device segment for the three months ended March 31, 2021 consisted of 85% raw materials, 9% production labor and 6% other cost of sales.

Cost of sales decreased by $140,649, or 18%, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period 2020. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, cost of sales as a percentage of net sales were 16% and 44%, respectively. The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was a result of decreased sales order fulfillment costs (on a per unit basis), during the three months ended March 31, 2021, and decreased amortization expense due to the de-recognition of the 200mg inventory step-up asset in September 2020.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $3,432,220, or 84%, composed of $2,811,366 of gross profit from Prescription Medicines and $620,854 from Medical Devices. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $1,007,886, or 56%, composed of $296,839 of gross profit from Prescription Medicines and $711,047 from Medical Devices. The changes in gross profit was driven by the factors noted above.

37

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $934,746, or 19%, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020. Decreased selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily driven by lower payroll expenses and direct marketing expenses as management sought to reduce expenses due to COVID-19; partially offset by increased accounting and legal fees and other expenses associated with the Merger.

Research and development expenses decreased by $120,204 or 86% during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020. Decreased research and development expenses were primarily driven by $100,000 of upfront licensing fees for the three months ended March 31, 2020 that did not reoccur during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $1,728,829, composed of $1,398,270 of depreciation and amortization expenses of our Prescription Medicines segment and $330,559 of depreciation and amortization expenses of our Medical Devices segment.

Prescription Medicines depreciation and amortization consists primarily of the amortization of the intangible assets related to Stendra® over its estimated useful life of 10 years. Medical Devices depreciation and amortization primarily consists of the amortization of the intangible assets related to Timm Medical and PTV over their estimated useful life of 12 years. The increase in amortization expense was primarily driven by the accelerated method of amortization related to the Stendra® product.

Change in fair value of derivative liability

In connection with the Mergers consummated on December 1, 2020, each security holder of Metuchen received a liability classified earnout consideration to be paid in the form of Petros Common Stock if either Petros’ Market Capitalization (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or Petros receives aggregate gross proceeds from securities offerings that equals or exceeds certain milestones set forth in the Merger Agreement. The earnout contingent consideration met the criteria to be classified as a derivative with fair value remeasurements recorded in earnings each reporting period. As a result, the $5,380,000 represents the change in fair value of the derivative during the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily driven by the decline in the Company’s stock price as well as the passage of time.

Interest expense, senior debt

Interest expense, senior debt for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $173,412 consisting of interest payments on our senior debt, with a weighted average balance of $5,597,203. Interest expense, senior debt for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $427,584, consisting of interest payments on our senior debt, with a weighted average balance of $11,740,995. The decrease of $254,172 or 59% was due to the pay down of $5.0 million of senior debt and decreased weighted average interest rate subsequent to March 31, 2020.

Interest expense, subordinated related party term loans

There was no interest expense, subordinated related party term loans for the three months ended March 31, 2021. During 2020, the Company borrowed additional subordinated related party term loans in aggregate principal amount of $15.5 million. The subordinated related party term loans were converted into shares of the Company’s common stock with the consummation of the Mergers on December 1, 2020. Accordingly, the was no principal balance of the subordinated related party term loans or accrued PIK interest as of March 31, 2021.

Income tax benefit

There was no income tax benefit or expense recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 the benefit was $29,971. The income tax benefit was primarily attributed to the operations of the Medical Device segment, specifically Timm, which is now included in the Company’s consolidated group. The consolidated group is in a valuation allowance position, as such, the legacy deferred tax liabilities recorded at Timm have been a source of taxable income which reduced the overall valuation allowance as of December 31, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Cash totaled $14,566,710 at March 31, 2021, compared to $17,139,694 at December 31, 2020.

We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. As of March 31, 2021, we had cash of $14.6 million, negative working capital of approximately $16.3 million, including debt of $5.1 million maturing in 2021, and sustained cumulative losses attributable to common stockholders of $58.7 million. Our plans include, or may include, utilizing our cash and cash equivalents on hand, negotiating an extension of our debt arrangement and our liability due to Vivus as well as exploring additional ways to raise capital in addition to increasing cash flows from operations. While we are optimistic that we will be successful in our efforts to achieve our plans, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in doing so. As such, we obtained a continued support letter from our largest shareholder, JCP III SM AIV, L.P., through May 17, 2022.

To date, our principal sources of capital used to fund our operations have been the net proceeds we received from the Mergers, revenues from product sales, private sales of equity securities and proceeds received from the issuance of convertible debt, as described below.

We rely on McKesson to distribute our products to our customers. On March 27, 2020, the Company received notice of termination from McKesson. Such notice was withdrawn on April 3, 2020, following the Company’s payment of $1,915,144. As of March 31, 2021, we had $6,752,920 in Gross Accounts Receivable due from McKesson, partially offset by $1,447,063 in accrued chargebacks, cash discounts, unbilled returns, and distribution service fees. Net amounts McKesson owed to the Company was $5,305,857 as of March 31, 2021.

Our principal expenditures include payment for inventory of Stendra® from our key supplier, Vivus, including purchases of inventory accrued in current periods, but for which payment is due in future periods. We have significant unpaid balances owed to Vivus and are currently in discussions with Vivus with respect to amounts owed. We had an aggregate accrued unpaid balance owed to Vivus of $20,724,188 as of March 31, 2021. While the Company is in discussions with Vivus to convert a portion of the amounts owed into a subordinated note, though there can be no assurance that we will be successful in these discussions.

In March 2020, the Company acquired the exclusive license to H100™ from Hybrid. H100™ is a topical candidate with at least one active ingredient and potentially a combination of ingredients responsible for the improvement of penile curvature during the acute phase of Peyronie’s disease. We paid an initial license fee of $100,000 and an additional payment of $250,000 and additional annual milestone payments of $125,000, $150,000 and $200,000 are due on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the license agreement and $250,000 annual payments due thereafter. The Company is also required to make a $1,000,000 payment upon first commercial sale and a sliding scale of percentage payments on net sales in the low single digits. Annual anniversary payments will not be required after commercialization. The Company is also obligated to make royalty payments between 3-6% of any net sales.

On September 24, 2020, the Company and Hybrid entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which the term of the license agreement was extended for an additional six months to March 24, 2021. In consideration for the extension, the Company paid Hybrid $50,000 in October 2020 and an additional $100,000 in December 2020. On March 31, 2021, the Company and Hybrid, entered into a second letter agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the Second Period (as defined in the License Agreement) for an additional six (6) months to September 24, 2021. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay Hybrid a one-time, non-creditable and non-refundable payment of two hundred thousand U.S. Dollars ($200,000), which was payable within seven calendar days of entering into the agreement.

The Company also expects to incur approximately $14 million of research and development expenses relating to H100™ over the estimated four to six-year period of clinical development prior to FDA approval, including approximately $10 million for clinical trials and $4 million of other expenses.

We will require additional financing to further develop and market our products, fund operations, and otherwise implement our business strategy at amounts relatively consistent with the expenditure levels disclosed above. We are exploring additional ways to raise capital but we cannot assure you that we will be able to raise capital. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, our ability to meet our obligations, and our ability to pursue our business strategies. We expect to seek additional funds through a variety of sources, which may include additional public or private equity or debt financings, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate sources, or through other sources of financing.

We are focused on expanding our service offering through internal development, collaborations, and through strategic acquisitions. We are continually evaluating potential asset acquisitions and business combinations. To finance such acquisitions, we might raise additional equity capital, incur additional debt, or both.

Debt

Senior Debt

On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”), for a $35 million term loan. The Loan Agreement includes an additional Payable-In-Kind (“PIK”) interest that increases the outstanding principal on a monthly basis at an annual rate of 1.35% and a $787,500 end of term charge. The end of term charge is being recognized as interest expense and accreted over the term of the Loan Agreement, as amended, using the effective interest method.We refer to the amounts available under the credit facility with Hercules as Senior Debt.

On November 22, 2017, the Company entered into Amendment Number 1 to the Loan Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The end of term charge was increased from $787,500 to $1,068,750.

Effective April 13, 2020, the Company and Hercules amended the Loan Agreement, as previously amended, to extend the maturity date thereof to April 1, 2021, subject to further extension to December 1, 2021 if the Company raises at least $20 million through an equity or debt financing or other transaction. All previously accrued PIK interest was added to accrued principal, and no further PIK interest will accrue. The cash interest would accrue at a rate of the greater of (i) the prime rate reported in the Wall Street Journal plus 11.50% minus 4.25% and (ii) 11.50%. The interest rate was 11.50% at March 31, 2021. The end of term charge of $1,068,750 was partially extended with $534,375 due on October 1, 2020 and $534,375 due on February 1, 2021. The Company incurred a $50,000 amendment fee upon closing of the amendment.

Effective September 30, 2020, the Company and Hercules entered into the Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (“Third Amendment”) to provide for interest only payments commencing on October 1, 2020 and continuing through December 22, 2020 unless the Company raises net cash proceeds of at least $25 million through an equity or debt financing or other transaction on or before December 21, 2020. The Third Amendment also amended the minimum cash, minimum net revenue and minimum EBITDA financial covenants. On that same date, Juggernaut Capital Partners III, L.P., an affiliate of the JCP Investor, Hercules and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. entered into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) to escrow certain funds in an aggregate amount equal to certain principal payments owed under the Loan Agreement, as amended. In connection with the consummation of the Mergers, the funds held in escrow were disbursed back to Juggernaut Capital Partners III, L.P. and the Escrow Agreement was terminated.

The Company satisfied the maturity date extension requirement pursuant to funds retained upon the closing of the Mergers in December 2020. As a result, the Senior Debt now has a maturity date of December 1, 2021.

Subordinated Related Party Term Loans

During 2020, the Company entered into Subordinated Promissory Notes with the JCP Investor in the principal amount of $15.5 million. The maturity date of the Subordinated Promissory Notes was April 2, 2021 and they had PIK interest that increases the outstanding principal on a daily basis at an annual rate of 20%.

In connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement on May 17, 2020, the JCP Investor, Neurotrope and Metuchen entered into a Note Conversion and Loan Repayment Agreement pursuant to which, the JCP Investor agreed to convert all of the above outstanding subordinated promissory notes and accrued PIK interest of the Company held by Juggernaut Capital Partners LLP and the JCP Investor, into Petros common stock in connection with the consummation of the Mergers on December 1, 2020, and the Subordinated Promissory Notes were terminated. Accordingly, the principal balance of the Subordinated Promissory Notes and accrued PIK interest was $0 as of March 31, 2021.

We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as stockholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our financial statements included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 10-Q. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or product development services with us.

42

Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management, in consultation with its legal counsel as appropriate, assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure utilized by management to evaluate the Company’s performance on a comparable basis. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a supplemental way to evaluate the ongoing operations of the Company’s business as Adjusted EBITDA may enhance investors’ ability to compare historical periods as it adjusts for the impact of financing methods, tax law and strategy changes, and depreciation and amortization and to evaluate the Company’s ability to service debt. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measurement that management and the Company’s Board of Directors use in their financial and operational decision-making and in the determination of certain compensation programs. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in the Company’s industry and should not be construed as an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance (as determined in accordance with GAAP). The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is adjusted to exclude certain items that affect comparability. The adjustments are itemized in the tables below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reason the Company considers them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating adjustments, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments set forth below. The presentation of these adjustments should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or recurring items.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude (i) interest expense, net, (ii) depreciation and amortization and (iii) income taxes, as further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operating performance or that are non-recurring in nature. For example, Adjusted EBITDA:

● does not reflect the Company’s capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

● does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs;

● does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on the Company’s debt; and

● does not reflect payments related to income taxes, if applicable.

43

The following table presents a reconciliation of Net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

	For the Three Months
	Ended March 31,
	2021		2020
Net income (loss)	$	3,009,081	$	(6,083,219)
Interest expense, senior debt		173,412		427,584
Interest expense, related party term loans		—		76,282
Income tax expense (benefit)		—		(29,971)
Depreciation and amortization expense		1,728,829		1,661,362
EBITDA		4,911,322		(3,947,962)
Change in fair value of derivative liability		(5,380,000)		—
Adjusted EBITDA	$	(468,678)	$	(3,947,962)

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.

Gross Billings

Gross billings is a non-GAAP financial measure utilized as a key performance metric by management and the Company’s Board of Directors in their financial and operational decision-making as well as for the preparation of the annual budget. The Company believes that Gross billings is useful to investors as a supplemental way to provide an alternative measure of the total demand for the products sold by the Company. Gross billings is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in the Company’s industry and should not be construed as an alternative to net sales as an indicator of operating performance (as determined in accordance with GAAP). The Company’s presentation of gross billings may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Gross billings is adjusted to exclude certain items that affect comparability. The adjustments are itemized in the tables below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reason the Company considers them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating adjustments, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments set forth below. The presentation of these adjustments should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or recurring items.

The Company defines gross billings as the amount of its aggregate sales billed to customers at standard prices before the application of certain adjustments that reduce the net amount received from customers, including product returns, certain rebates and coupon redemptions, discounts and fees.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Net sales to Gross billings for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

	For the Three Months
	Ended March 31

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) as of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods 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.

As disclosed in Part II, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we identified a material weaknesses in internal control related to (1) Petros has an insufficient level of monitoring and oversight controls and does not enforce the implementation of key controls reflected on its internal control process matrices; (2) the sizes of Petros’ accounting and IT departments make it impracticable to achieve an appropriate segregation of duties; and (3) Petros does not have appropriate IT access related controls.

A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standard No. 5) or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management plans to expand the scope of its remediation of its internal controls over financial reporting at the consolidated level and has developed a plan to address the remediation of the foregoing deficiencies in 2021.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Management believes that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation, and Liquidity

1)    Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation, and Liquidity

Nature of Operations

Petros Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Petros” or the “Company”) was organized as a Delaware corporation on May 14, 2020 for the purpose of effecting the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 17, 2020 (the “Original Merger Agreement”), by and between Petros, Neurotrope, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Neurotrope”), PM Merger Sub 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (“Merger Sub 1”), PN Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (“Merger Sub 2”), and Metuchen Pharmaceuticals LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Metuchen”). On July 23, 2020, the parties to the Merger Agreement entered into the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “First Merger Agreement Amendment”) and on September 30, 2020, the parties to the Original Merger Agreement entered into the Second Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Second Merger Agreement Amendment” and, together with the Original Merger Agreement and the First Merger Agreement Amendment, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provided for (1) the merger of Merger Sub 1, with and into Metuchen, with Metuchen surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (the “Metuchen Merger”) and (2) the merger of Merger Sub 2 with and into Neurotrope, with Neurotrope surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (the “Neurotrope Merger” and together with the Metuchen Merger, the “Mergers”). As a result of the Mergers, Metuchen and Neurotrope became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Petros, and Petros became a publicly traded corporation on December 1, 2020. On December 7, 2020, Neurotrope completed the spin-off of certain assets, whereby (i) any cash in excess of $20,000,000, subject to adjustment as provided in the Merger Agreement, and all of the operating assets and liabilities of Neurotrope not retained by Neurotrope in connection with the Mergers were contributed to Synaptogenix, Inc. (formerly known as Neurotrope Bioscience, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (“Synaptogenix”), and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Neurotrope.

The Mergers were accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Metuchen was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on an analysis of the criteria outlined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) and the facts and circumstances specific to the Mergers, including: (1) Metuchen Securityholders owned approximately 51.0% of the equity securities of Petros immediately following the closing of the transaction; (2) a majority of the board of directors of Petros are composed of directors designated by Metuchen under the terms of the Mergers; and (3) a majority of the existing members of Metuchen’s management are the management of Petros. The net assets of Metuchen are stated at historical costs in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded. Accordingly, the historical financial statements of Metuchen through November 30, 2020 became the Company’s historical financial statements, including the comparative prior periods. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include Metuchen, Petros and Neurotrope, Inc, after the spin-off discussed above, from December 1, 2020, the date the reverse recapitalization was consummated.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020, has been derived from audited financial statements as of that date. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to instructions, rules, and regulations prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. We believe that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes previously distributed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TIMM Medical, Inc. (“TIMM”), and Pos-T-Vac, LLC (“PTV”), subsidiaries of Metuchen, and Metuchen, a subsidiary of Petros. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Liquidity

The Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $14.6 million, negative working capital of approximately $16.3 million, including debt of $5.1 million maturing in 2021, and sustained cumulative losses attributable to common stockholders of $58.7 million. Our plans include, or may include, utilizing our cash and cash equivalents on hand, negotiating an extension of our debt arrangement and our liability due to Vivus as well as exploring additional ways to raise capital in addition to increasing cash flows from operations. While we are optimistic that we will be successful in our efforts to achieve our plan, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in doing so. As such, we obtained a continued support letter from our largest shareholder, JCP III SM AIV, L.P., (“the JCP Investor”) through May 17, 2022.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2)    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Such estimates include the adequacy of accounts receivable reserves, return reserves, inventory reserves, and assessment of long-lived assets, including intangible asset impairment, the determination of the fair value of the derivative liability, and the allocation of the purchase price in acquisitions, among others. Actual results could differ from these estimates and changes in these estimates are recorded when known.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the pharmaceutical industry including, but not limited to, uncertainties related to commercialization of competitor products, regulatory approvals, dependence on key products, dependence on key customers and suppliers, and protection of intellectual property rights.

In January 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which continues to rapidly evolve, “shelter in place” orders and other public health guidance measures were implemented across much of the United States, Europe and Asia, including in the locations of the Company’s offices, key vendors and partners. The pandemic has significantly impacted the economic conditions in the U.S. and globally as federal, state and local governments react to the public health crisis, creating significant uncertainties in the economy. At this time, the future trajectory of the COVID-19 outbreak remains uncertain, both in the United States and in other markets. While the Company anticipates that currently available vaccines will be widely distributed in the future, the timing and efficacy of such vaccines are uncertain. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the length or severity of the impact that the COVID-19 outbreak will have on its financial results, and the Company may experience a material adverse impact on its sales, results of operations, and cash flows in fiscal 2021.

During 2020, government regulations and the voluntary business practices of the Company and prescribing physicians have prevented in-person visits by sales representatives to physicians’ offices. The Company has taken steps to mitigate the negative impact on its businesses of such restrictions. In March 2020, the Company reduced its sales representative head count to reflect the lack of in-person visits. The Company has maintained a core sales team which continues to contact physicians via telephone and videoconference as well as continuing to have webinars provided by the Company’s key opinion leaders to other physicians and pharmacists. The Company anticipates rehiring and/or assigning representatives to cover sales territories as physician access resumes new normal levels. In response to the spread of COVID-19, in March 2020, the Company closed its administrative offices and as of March 31, 2021, they remain closed, with the Company’s employees continuing their work outside of the Company’s offices. The Company has selectively resumed in-person interactions by its customer-facing personnel in compliance with local and state restrictions. The Company also continues to engage with customers virtually as the Company seeks to continue to support healthcare professionals and patient care. However, the Company’s ability to engage in personal interactions with physicians and customers remains limited, and it is unknown when the Company’s offices will reopen, and these interactions will be fully resumed.

Revenue Recognition

Prescription Medication Sales

The Company’s prescription medication sales consist of sales of Stendra® in the U.S. for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction. Under ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 606”), the Company recognizes revenue from prescription medication sales when its performance obligations with a customer has been satisfied. In the contracts with its customers, the Company has identified a single performance obligation to provide Stendra® upon receipt of a customer order. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the Company’s customers obtain control of Stendra®, which is typically upon delivery. The Company invoices its customers after Stendra® has been delivered and invoice payments are generally due within 30 to 75 days of invoice date.

In determining the transaction price, a significant financing component does not exist since the timing from when the Company delivers Stendra® to when the customers pay for the product is typically less than one year. The Company records prescription medication sales net of any variable consideration, including but not limited to discounts, rebates, returns, chargebacks, and distribution fees. The Company uses the expected value method when estimating its variable consideration, unless terms are specified within contracts. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenues from sales of Stendra® are recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for sales deductions were $8.2 million and $8.6 million, respectively. The most significant sales deductions included in this reserve relate to returns, contract rebates, and distribution service (“DSA”) fees. Our estimates are based on factors such as our direct and indirect customers’ buying patterns and the estimated resulting contractual deduction rates, historical experience, specific known market events and estimated future trends, current contractual and statutory requirements, industry data, estimated customer inventory levels, current contract sales terms with our direct and indirect customers, and other competitive factors. Significant judgment and estimation is required in developing the foregoing and other relevant assumptions. The most significant sales deductions are further described below.

Product Returns

Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return policy that generally allows its customers to return Stendra® and receive credit for product within six months prior to expiration date and up to one year after expiration date. The provision for returns is based upon the Company’s estimates for future Stendra® returns and historical experience. The provision of returns is part of the variable consideration recorded at the time revenue is recognized. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for product returns were $7.0 million and $7.1 million, respectively, and are included as a component of accrued expenses.

Contract Rebates, Coupon Redemptions and DSA Fees

The Company establishes contracts with wholesalers, chain stores, and indirect customers that provide for rebates, sales incentives, DSA fees and other allowances. Some customers receive rebates upon attaining established sales volumes. Direct rebates are generally rebates paid to direct purchasing customers based on a percentage applied to a direct customer’s purchases from us, including fees paid to wholesalers under our DSAs, as described below. Indirect rebates are rebates paid to indirect customers that have purchased our products from a wholesaler under a contract with us.

The Company has entered into DSAs with certain of our significant wholesaler customers that obligate the wholesalers, in exchange for fees paid by us, to: (i) manage the variability of their purchases and inventory levels within specified limits based on product demand and (ii) provide us with specific services, including the provision of periodic retail demand information and current inventory levels for our pharmaceutical products held at their warehouse locations.

Medical Device Sales

The Company’s medical device sales consist of domestic and international sales of men’s health products for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. The men’s health products do not require a prescription and include Vacuum Erection Devices, VenoSeal, and other related accessories. Under Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue from medical device sales when its performance obligations with its customers have been satisfied. In the contracts with its customers, the Company has identified a single performance obligation to provide medical devices upon receipt of a customer order. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the Company’s customers obtain control of the medical device, which is typically upon shipment. The Company invoices its customers after the medical devices have been shipped and invoice payments are generally due within 30 days of invoice date for domestic customers and 90 days for international customers.

In determining the transaction price, a significant financing component does not exist since the timing from when the Company delivers the medical devices to when the customers pay for the product is typically less than one year. The Company records medical device sales net of any variable consideration, including but not limited to returns. The Company uses the expected value method when estimating its variable consideration. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenues from the medical device sales are recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.

Product Returns

Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return policy that generally allows its customers to return medical devices and receive credit for products within 90 days of the sale. The provision for returns is based upon the Company’s estimates for future product returns and historical experience. The Company has not made significant changes to the judgments made in applying Topic 606. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for product returns for medical devices were not significant.

Contract Costs

In relation to customer contracts, the Company incurs costs to fulfill a contract but does not incur costs to obtain a contract. These costs to fulfill a contract do not meet the criteria for capitalization and are expensed as incurred. As such, the Company did not have any contract assets at March 31, 2021and December 31, 2020.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under U.S. GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

Financial instruments recognized at historical amounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets consist of cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current liabilities, and senior debt. The Company believes that the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The carrying value of senior debt as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 approximated fair value. The fair value of the senior debt was estimated by discounting to present value the scheduled coupon payments and principal repayment, using an appropriate fair market yield and is considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

In connection with the Mergers in December 2020, each security holder of Metuchen received an earnout consideration classified as a derivative liability to be paid in the form of Petros Common Stock. The Company estimated their fair value using a Monte Carlo Simulation approach. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the derivative liability as March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020 was $4.5 million and $9.9 million, respectively. See Note 10 Stockholders’ Equity.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees and consultants in accordance with applicable accounting principles, which requires compensation expense related to stock-based transactions, including employee stock options and consultant warrants, to be measured and recognized in the financial statements based on a determination of the fair value of the stock options or warrants. The grant date fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) pricing model. Employee stock option and consulting expenses are recognized over the employee’s or consultant’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).

The Company’s option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the volatility and expected term. Any changes in these highly subjective assumptions can significantly impact stock-based compensation expense. See Note 11 Stock Options.

Income Taxes

Prior to the consummation of the Mergers, Metuchen was a limited liability company (“LLC”) for federal income tax purposes and had elected to be treated as a Partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. PTV is a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes. As such, all income tax consequences resulting from the operations were reported on the member’s income tax return. In addition, Timm was included in the Company’s structure where taxes were paid at the entity level.

Subsequent to the Mergers, Metuchen’s activity is included in the Company’s consolidated group. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, the Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period the rate change is enacted.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If the Company determines that it would be able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with FASB ASC No. 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740) on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the income tax expense line in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 no accrued interest or penalties are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

The Company computes basic net loss per common share by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the dilutive effects of stock options and warrants to purchase common shares. The Company computes diluted net loss per common share by dividing the net loss applicable to common share by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the potential dilutive effects of its convertible preferred stocks, stock options and warrants to purchase common shares, but such items are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because the impact of these items is anti-dilutive during periods of net loss, there was no difference between the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Note 13 Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Pending Adoption as of March 31, 2021

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13, together with a series of subsequently issued related ASUs, has been codified in Topic 326. Topic 326 establishes new requirements for companies to estimate expected credit losses when measuring certain financial assets, including accounts receivables. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Senior Debt

The following is a summary of the Company’s senior indebtedness at March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020:

	March 31, 2021		December 31, 2020
Principal balance	$	5,061,264	$	6,653,292
Plus: End of term fee		—		534,237
Less: Debt issuance costs		—		(12,500)
Total senior debt	$	5,061,264	$	7,175,029

On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Hercules, a third party, for a $35 million term loan (“Senior Debt”). The Senior Debt includes an additional Paid-In-Kind (“PIK”) interest that increases the outstanding principal on a monthly basis at an annual rate of 1.35% and a $787,500 end of term charge. The end of term charge is being recognized as interest expense and accreted over the term of the Senior Debt using the effective interest method.

On November 22, 2017, the Company amended its loan agreement with Hercules (“First Amendment”). The end of term charge was increased from $787,500 to $1,068,750

On April 13, 2020, the Company amended its loan agreement with Hercules. The amendment waived all financial covenant defaults for all periods since inception through the period ending March 31, 2020. The amendment also included the following changes:

● Extended the maturity date from October 1, 2020 to April 2021, which can be further extendable to December 1, 2021 upon achieving the Financing Milestone, as defined in the agreement.

● Increased the cash interest rate from the greater of (a) 10.75% or (b) 10.75% plus the US WSJ Prime minus 4.50% to the greater of (a) 11.50% or (b) 11.50% plus the US WSJ Prime minus 4.25%.

● Removed the PIK interest rate.

● Removed the prepayment penalty.

The end of term charge of $1,068,750 was partially extended with $534,375 paid on October 1, 2020 and $534,375 paid on February 1, 2021.

Effective September 30, 2020, the Company and Hercules entered into the Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (“Third Amendment”) to provide for interest only payments commencing on October 1, 2020 and continuing through December 22, 2020 unless the Company raised net cash proceeds of at least $25 million through an equity or debt financing or other transaction on or before December 21, 2020. The Third Amendment also amended the minimum cash, minimum net revenue and minimum EBITDA financial covenants. On that same date, Juggernaut Capital Partners III, L.P, an affiliate of the JCP Investor., Hercules and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. entered into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) to escrow funds amounting to approximately $1.5 million, an amount equal to the aggregate of certain principal payments due under the Loan Agreement, as amended. In connection with the consummation of the Mergers, the funds held in escrow were disbursed back to Juggernaut Capital Partners III, L.P. and the Escrow Agreement was terminated.

The Company satisfied the maturity date extension requirement pursuant to funds retained upon the closing of the Mergers in December 2020. As a result, the Senior Debt now has a maturity date of December 1, 2021. As of March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with its covenants.

Interest expense on the Senior Debt was as follows for the periods indicated:

	For the Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2021		2020
Interest expense for term loan	$	160,912	$	387,566

PIK interest		—		40,017
	$	173,412	$	427,583

Included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020 is $50,119 and $65,885, respectively, of accrued and unpaid interest.

Subordinated Related Party Term Loans

Subordinated Related Party Term Loans Entered into During 2020

During, 2020, the Company entered into Subordinated Promissory Notes with the JCP Investor in the principal amount of 15.5 million. The maturity date of the Subordinated Promissory Notes was April 2, 2021 and they had PIK interest that increases the outstanding principal on a daily basis at an annual rate of 20%.

In connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement on May 17, 2020, the JCP Investor, Neurotrope and Metuchen entered into a Note Conversion and Loan Repayment Agreement pursuant to which, the JCP Investor agreed to convert all of the above outstanding subordinated promissory notes and accrued PIK interest held by Juggernaut Capital Partners LLP and the JCP Investor, into Petros common stock in connection with the consummation of the Mergers on December 1, 2020, and the Subordinated Promissory Notes were terminated. Accordingly, the principal balance of the Subordinated Promissory Notes and accrued PIK interest was $0 as of both March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020.

Interest expense on this debt was $76,282 comprised entirely of PIK interest, for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Prior to September 16, 2019, the Company authorized 100 units of Class A Common Units (the “Class A Units”) to be issued and outstanding. In addition, there were Restricted Member Units (“RMU’s”) that were designated as a class of incentive units (also known as “Class B Units”).

On September 16, 2019, the Company amended and restated its operating agreement creating the rights and preferences relating to the Preferred Units and Common Units mentioned in the Private Placement Offering below. The issued and outstanding Preferred Units and Common Units were exchanged for Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Mergers.

(b)    Preferred Units

A holder of a Preferred Unit was entitled to vote on any matter requiring the approval of such units. In addition, the Preferred Unit holders were entitled to distributions, after adjustment for specific items, for each fiscal year.

The following actions required the prior consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Preferred Units: (a) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the amended and restated operating agreement (if such amendment would adversely affect any of the rights or preferences of the Preferred Units); (b) authorize or create membership interests that have a preference over the Preferred Units as to dividends or liquidation; (c) declare or pay any dividends or distributions; (d) dissolve or liquidate (in whole or in part), consolidate, merge, convey, lease, sell, or transfer all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or purchase or otherwise acquire (directly or indirectly) all or substantially all of the assets or equity interest issued by another company; or file a petition for bankruptcy or receivership of the Company; (e) repurchase or redeem any Membership Interests; or (f) enter into any agreement, commitment or arrangement to do any of the foregoing.

10)     Stockholders’ Equity

Upon consummation of the Mergers, each outstanding Common Unit or Preferred Unit of Metuchen was exchanged for a number of shares of Petros common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Petros Common Stock”), equal to 0.4968, which resulted in an aggregate of 4,949,610 shares of Petros Common Stock issued to the holders of Metuchen units in the Mergers. In addition, each holder of Neurotrope common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Neurotrope Common Stock”) received one (1) share of Petros Common Stock for every five (5) shares of Neurotrope Common Stock held, and each holder of Neurotrope preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Neurotrope Preferred Stock”) received one (1) share of Petros preferred stock (the “Petros Preferred Stock”) for every one (1) share of Neurotrope Preferred Stock held. In addition, each holder of outstanding options to purchase Neurotrope Common Stock or outstanding warrants to purchase Neurotrope Common Stock that were not previously exercised prior to the consummation of the Mergers was converted into equivalent options and warrants to purchase one (1) share of Petros Common Stock for every five (5) shares of Neurotrope Common Stock outstanding pursuant to such options or warrants.

As a result of the Mergers, the former Neurotrope shareholders collectively owned approximately 4,758,045 shares of Petros Common Stock and 500 shares of Petros Preferred Stock and the former Metuchen unit holders collectively owned 4,949,610 shares of Petros Common Stock. Accordingly, the former Metuchen unit holders collectively owned approximately 51% of Petros and the former Neurotrope shareholders collectively owned approximately 49% of Petros.

On January 26, 2021, 500 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock were converted into 60,606 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Effective January 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Marketing and Consulting Agreement (the “Agreement”) with CorProminence, LLC (the “Consultant”) for certain shareholder information and relation services. The term of the Agreement is for one year with automatic consecutive one-year renewal terms. As consideration for the shareholder information and relation services, the Company will pay the Consultant a monthly retainer of $7,500 and issued 30,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to the Consultant on March 24, 2021 (the “Grant Date”). The restricted shares vested immediately on the Grant Date.

Effective April 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Consulting and Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Tania King, an employee of Juggernaut Capital Partners LLP, for certain services. The term of the Agreement is indefinite but may be terminated by either party, with or without cause. As consideration for the consulting and advisory services, the Company will pay Ms. King a monthly fee of $4,000, an additional $12,000 payment included with the first monthly fee for services provided since January 1, 2021, and issue restricted stock units for shares of the Company’s common stock (“RSU’s”) with a cash value of $72,000 as of the date of the grant (the “Grant Date”). The RSU’s shall vest and settle in full on the one-year anniversary of the grant date.

Backstop Agreement

In connection with the entry into the Merger Agreement, Neurotrope and an affiliated entity of the JCP Investor entered into a Backstop Agreement pursuant to which Juggernaut agreed to contribute to Metuchen at the closing of the Mergers an amount equal to the Working Capital Shortfall Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement), if any, as determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement, up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $6,000,000 (the “Commitment Cap”). Following the closing of the Mergers and until the one-year anniversary of the closing of the Mergers (the “Anniversary Date”), Juggernaut agreed to contribute, or cause an affiliate to contribute, to Petros an amount equal to the Commitment Cap less the Working Capital Shortfall Amount (the “Post-Closing Commitment”) on the Anniversary Date; provided, however, that, (a) in the event that, at any time between the closing of the Mergers and the Anniversary Date, the closing price per share of Petros’s Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market or any other securities exchanges on which the Petros Common Stock is then traded equals or exceeds $2.175 for a period of ten consecutive trading days, then the Post-Closing Commitment shall be reduced by fifty percent (50%) and (b) in the event that, at any time between the closing of the Mergers and the Anniversary Date, the closing price per share of Petros’s Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market or any other securities exchanges on which the Petros Common Stock is then traded equals or exceeds $2.5375 for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days, then the Post-Closing Commitment shall be $0.

Pursuant to the Backstop Agreement and upon closing of the Mergers, Juggernaut paid the Company $2.6 million for the Working Capital Shortfall Amount, which was recorded in equity in relation to the net proceeds received from the reverse capitalization.

Contingent Consideration

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each security holder of Metuchen received a right to receive such security holder’s pro rata stock of an aggregate of 14,232,090 stocks of Petros Common Stock potentially issuable upon the achievement of certain milestones set forth in the Merger Agreement. The milestones are for the achievement of stock price and market capitalization, as defined over a two-year period.

Milestone Earnout Payments

In connection with the Mergers, each security holder of Metuchen received an equity classified earnout consideration to be paid in the form of Petros Common Stock if the Closing Price (as defined in the Merger Agreement) per share of stock of Petros’ Common Stock equals or exceeds certain milestones set forth in the Merger Agreement, as discussed below. Each milestone earnout payment is only achievable and payable one time and upon attainment of such milestone earnout payment.

As of March 31, 2021 there were 1,078,346 shares authorized, and 288,346 shares available for issuance, under the 2020 Plan.

Upon the consummation of the Mergers as disclosed in Note 1, Neurotrope options issued and outstanding as of December 1, 2020 were converted into equivalent options to purchase stocks of Petros common stock and were adjusted to give effect to the Exchange Ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement.

Upon the consummation of the Mergers as disclosed in Note 1, the vesting of former Neurotrope stock options in accordance with their terms was accelerated due to a change in control pursuant to the terms of the Neurotrope, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan and the Neurotrope, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the change in control, Neurotrope extended the period to exercise the stock options to be one-year from the closing of the Mergers. Accordingly, the Company did not record any stock-based compensation expense in connection with these stock options during the period from December 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020.

Marketing, Licensing and Distribution Agreements

Marketing, Licensing and Distribution Agreements

14)   Marketing, Licensing and Distribution Agreements

(a)    Vivus

On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into a License and Commercialization Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Vivus, Inc, (“Vivus”) to purchase and receive the license for the commercialization and exploitation of Stendra® for a one-time fee of $70 million, and for an additional $0.8 million, the Company also acquired the current Stendra® product and sample inventories as of September 30, 2016 that were owned by Vivus. The License Agreement gives the Company the right to sell Stendra® in the U.S and its territories, Canada, South America, and India. In December 2000, Vivus originally was granted the license from Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation (“MTPC”) to develop, market, and manufacture Stendra®. Stendra® was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in April 2012 to treat male erectile dysfunction.

The Company will pay MTPC a royalty of 5% on the first $500 million of net sales and 6% of net sales thereafter. In consideration for the trademark assignment and the use of the trademarks associated with the product and the Vivus technology, the Company shall (a) during the first, second, and third years following the expiration of the Royalty Period in a particular country in the Company’s territory, pay to Vivus a royalty equal to 2% of the net sales of products in such territory; and (b) following the fourth and fifth years following the end of the Royalty Period in such territory, pay to Vivus a royalty equal to 1% of the net sales of products in such territory. Thereafter, no further royalties shall be owed with respect to net sales of Stendra® in such territory.

In addition, the Company will be responsible for a pro-rata portion of a $6 million milestone payment to be paid once $250 million in sales has been reached on the separate revenue stream of Stendra®. Should the $250 million of sales threshold be reached, the Company will be responsible for $3.2 million of the milestone payment.

In connection with the License Agreement, the Company and Vivus also entered into a Supply Agreement on the effective date of the License Agreement. The Supply Agreement states that Vivus will initially manufacture, test, and supply the product to the Company or its designee, directly or through one or more third parties. The agreement is effective through December 31, 2021. On July 7, 2020, Vivus announced that it has completed the solicitation of an in-court prepackaged plan of reorganization, under which IEH Biopharma LLC will take 100% ownership of Vivus. The Company provided Vivus with notice of termination of the supply agreement on September 30, 2019, effective on September 30. 2021. The Company is required to make future minimum annual purchases of Stendra® under the Supply Agreement as follows (based on current prices, however, subject to annual price increases). As of March 31, 2021, the minimum purchase obligation is estimated to be $4.1 million in 2021.

Stendra® can be purchased by written purchase orders submitted to Vivus at least 125 days in advance of the desired shipment date. For each quarter, the Company is required to submit purchase orders for at least 90% of the quantities in the forecast above. Vivus will have no obligation to supply Stendra® in excess of 120% of the quantity specified above but will use reasonable efforts.

As of both March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company has $14.2 million of accrued inventory purchases related to the Company’s minimum purchase obligations with Vivus for raw material or API inventory. As API inventory is not a finished good, the Company does not have title to the product and classifies API Inventory in either other current assets or other assets, depending on whether the Company expects to take title to the product within one year from the date of the financial statements. As of both March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, there was $1.3 million included in other current assets (see Note 5 Prepaid and Other Current Assets). As of both March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, $11.1 million included in other assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company reviews its inventory levels and purchase commitments for excess amounts that it is required to purchase but projects it will not be able to sell prior to product expiry. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has not recorded any additional reserve to reduce the cost of API inventory.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred royalties to MTPC for Stendra of $160,032 and $39,913, respectively. Royalties incurred were included in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had a payable for royalties of $168,760 and $8,728, respectively, which is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Royalties incurred were included in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The license agreement between MTPC and Vivus (“MTPC License”) contains certain termination rights that would allow MTPC to terminate the agreement if Vivus were to breach any of the terms of the MTPC License or become insolvent or bankrupt. In the event that MTPC terminates the MTPC License with Vivus because of any contractual breach the Company has step-in rights with MTPC, which would allow the Company to continue to sell Stendra®.

(b)    Hybrid

In March 2020, the Company acquired the exclusive license to H100™ from Hybrid. H100™ is a topical candidate with at least one active ingredient and potentially a combination of ingredients responsible for the improvement of penile curvature during the acute phase of Peyronie’s disease. We paid an initial license fee of $100,000, with an additional $900,000 payment due upon obtainment of orphan indication for H100™ and termination of Hybrid’s existing agreement with a compounding pharmacy, and additional annual payments of $125,000, $150,000 and $200,000 due on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the license agreement and $250,000 annual payments due thereafter. The Company is also required to make a $1,000,000 payment upon first commercial sale and a sliding scale of percentage payments on net sales in the low single digits. Annual anniversary payments will not be required after commercialization. The Company is also obligated to make royalty payments between 3-6% of any net sales. In addition, the Company may terminate at any time after first anniversary, without cause, upon ninety (90) days’ notice.

The initial license fee of $100,000 and an extension payment of $100,000 has been recorded in research and development during the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company has treated the acquisition as an asset acquisition and has concluded that the asset acquired and the upfront payment should be expensed as it was considered an IPR&D asset with no alternative future uses.

On September 24, 2020, the Company and Hybrid entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which the term of the license agreement was extended for an additional six months to March 24, 2021. In consideration for the extension, the Company paid Hybrid $50,000 in October 2020 and an additional $100,000 in December 2020. On March 31, 2021, the Company and Hybrid, entered into a second letter agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the Second Period (as defined in the License Agreement) for an additional six (6) months to September 24, 2021. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay Hybrid a one-time, non-creditable and non-refundable payment of $200,000, which was payable within seven calendar days of entering into the agreement.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Such estimates include the adequacy of accounts receivable reserves, return reserves, inventory reserves, and assessment of long-lived assets, including intangible asset impairment, the determination of the fair value of the derivative liability, and the allocation of the purchase price in acquisitions, among others. Actual results could differ from these estimates and changes in these estimates are recorded when known.

Risks and Uncertainties

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the pharmaceutical industry including, but not limited to, uncertainties related to commercialization of competitor products, regulatory approvals, dependence on key products, dependence on key customers and suppliers, and protection of intellectual property rights.

In January 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which continues to rapidly evolve, “shelter in place” orders and other public health guidance measures were implemented across much of the United States, Europe and Asia, including in the locations of the Company’s offices, key vendors and partners. The pandemic has significantly impacted the economic conditions in the U.S. and globally as federal, state and local governments react to the public health crisis, creating significant uncertainties in the economy. At this time, the future trajectory of the COVID-19 outbreak remains uncertain, both in the United States and in other markets. While the Company anticipates that currently available vaccines will be widely distributed in the future, the timing and efficacy of such vaccines are uncertain. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the length or severity of the impact that the COVID-19 outbreak will have on its financial results, and the Company may experience a material adverse impact on its sales, results of operations, and cash flows in fiscal 2021.

During 2020, government regulations and the voluntary business practices of the Company and prescribing physicians have prevented in-person visits by sales representatives to physicians’ offices. The Company has taken steps to mitigate the negative impact on its businesses of such restrictions. In March 2020, the Company reduced its sales representative head count to reflect the lack of in-person visits. The Company has maintained a core sales team which continues to contact physicians via telephone and videoconference as well as continuing to have webinars provided by the Company’s key opinion leaders to other physicians and pharmacists. The Company anticipates rehiring and/or assigning representatives to cover sales territories as physician access resumes new normal levels. In response to the spread of COVID-19, in March 2020, the Company closed its administrative offices and as of March 31, 2021, they remain closed, with the Company’s employees continuing their work outside of the Company’s offices. The Company has selectively resumed in-person interactions by its customer-facing personnel in compliance with local and state restrictions. The Company also continues to engage with customers virtually as the Company seeks to continue to support healthcare professionals and patient care. However, the Company’s ability to engage in personal interactions with physicians and customers remains limited, and it is unknown when the Company’s offices will reopen, and these interactions will be fully resumed.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Prescription Medication Sales

The Company’s prescription medication sales consist of sales of Stendra® in the U.S. for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction. Under ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 606”), the Company recognizes revenue from prescription medication sales when its performance obligations with a customer has been satisfied. In the contracts with its customers, the Company has identified a single performance obligation to provide Stendra® upon receipt of a customer order. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the Company’s customers obtain control of Stendra®, which is typically upon delivery. The Company invoices its customers after Stendra® has been delivered and invoice payments are generally due within 30 to 75 days of invoice date.

In determining the transaction price, a significant financing component does not exist since the timing from when the Company delivers Stendra® to when the customers pay for the product is typically less than one year. The Company records prescription medication sales net of any variable consideration, including but not limited to discounts, rebates, returns, chargebacks, and distribution fees. The Company uses the expected value method when estimating its variable consideration, unless terms are specified within contracts. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenues from sales of Stendra® are recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for sales deductions were $8.2 million and $8.6 million, respectively. The most significant sales deductions included in this reserve relate to returns, contract rebates, and distribution service (“DSA”) fees. Our estimates are based on factors such as our direct and indirect customers’ buying patterns and the estimated resulting contractual deduction rates, historical experience, specific known market events and estimated future trends, current contractual and statutory requirements, industry data, estimated customer inventory levels, current contract sales terms with our direct and indirect customers, and other competitive factors. Significant judgment and estimation is required in developing the foregoing and other relevant assumptions. The most significant sales deductions are further described below.

Product Returns

Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return policy that generally allows its customers to return Stendra® and receive credit for product within six months prior to expiration date and up to one year after expiration date. The provision for returns is based upon the Company’s estimates for future Stendra® returns and historical experience. The provision of returns is part of the variable consideration recorded at the time revenue is recognized. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for product returns were $7.0 million and $7.1 million, respectively, and are included as a component of accrued expenses.

Contract Rebates, Coupon Redemptions and DSA Fees

The Company establishes contracts with wholesalers, chain stores, and indirect customers that provide for rebates, sales incentives, DSA fees and other allowances. Some customers receive rebates upon attaining established sales volumes. Direct rebates are generally rebates paid to direct purchasing customers based on a percentage applied to a direct customer’s purchases from us, including fees paid to wholesalers under our DSAs, as described below. Indirect rebates are rebates paid to indirect customers that have purchased our products from a wholesaler under a contract with us.

The Company has entered into DSAs with certain of our significant wholesaler customers that obligate the wholesalers, in exchange for fees paid by us, to: (i) manage the variability of their purchases and inventory levels within specified limits based on product demand and (ii) provide us with specific services, including the provision of periodic retail demand information and current inventory levels for our pharmaceutical products held at their warehouse locations.

Medical Device Sales

The Company’s medical device sales consist of domestic and international sales of men’s health products for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. The men’s health products do not require a prescription and include Vacuum Erection Devices, VenoSeal, and other related accessories. Under Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue from medical device sales when its performance obligations with its customers have been satisfied. In the contracts with its customers, the Company has identified a single performance obligation to provide medical devices upon receipt of a customer order. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the Company’s customers obtain control of the medical device, which is typically upon shipment. The Company invoices its customers after the medical devices have been shipped and invoice payments are generally due within 30 days of invoice date for domestic customers and 90 days for international customers.

In determining the transaction price, a significant financing component does not exist since the timing from when the Company delivers the medical devices to when the customers pay for the product is typically less than one year. The Company records medical device sales net of any variable consideration, including but not limited to returns. The Company uses the expected value method when estimating its variable consideration. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenues from the medical device sales are recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.

Product Returns

Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return policy that generally allows its customers to return medical devices and receive credit for products within 90 days of the sale. The provision for returns is based upon the Company’s estimates for future product returns and historical experience. The Company has not made significant changes to the judgments made in applying Topic 606. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the reserves for product returns for medical devices were not significant.

Contract Costs

In relation to customer contracts, the Company incurs costs to fulfill a contract but does not incur costs to obtain a contract. These costs to fulfill a contract do not meet the criteria for capitalization and are expensed as incurred. As such, the Company did not have any contract assets at March 31, 2021and December 31, 2020.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under U.S. GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

Financial instruments recognized at historical amounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets consist of cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current liabilities, and senior debt. The Company believes that the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The carrying value of senior debt as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 approximated fair value. The fair value of the senior debt was estimated by discounting to present value the scheduled coupon payments and principal repayment, using an appropriate fair market yield and is considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

In connection with the Mergers in December 2020, each security holder of Metuchen received an earnout consideration classified as a derivative liability to be paid in the form of Petros Common Stock. The Company estimated their fair value using a Monte Carlo Simulation approach. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the derivative liability as March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020 was $4.5 million and $9.9 million, respectively. See Note 10 Stockholders’ Equity.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees and consultants in accordance with applicable accounting principles, which requires compensation expense related to stock-based transactions, including employee stock options and consultant warrants, to be measured and recognized in the financial statements based on a determination of the fair value of the stock options or warrants. The grant date fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) pricing model. Employee stock option and consulting expenses are recognized over the employee’s or consultant’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).

The Company’s option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the volatility and expected term. Any changes in these highly subjective assumptions can significantly impact stock-based compensation expense. See Note 11 Stock Options.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Prior to the consummation of the Mergers, Metuchen was a limited liability company (“LLC”) for federal income tax purposes and had elected to be treated as a Partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. PTV is a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes. As such, all income tax consequences resulting from the operations were reported on the member’s income tax return. In addition, Timm was included in the Company’s structure where taxes were paid at the entity level.

Subsequent to the Mergers, Metuchen’s activity is included in the Company’s consolidated group. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, the Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period the rate change is enacted.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If the Company determines that it would be able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with FASB ASC No. 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740) on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the income tax expense line in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 no accrued interest or penalties are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

The Company computes basic net loss per common share by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the dilutive effects of stock options and warrants to purchase common shares. The Company computes diluted net loss per common share by dividing the net loss applicable to common share by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the potential dilutive effects of its convertible preferred stocks, stock options and warrants to purchase common shares, but such items are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because the impact of these items is anti-dilutive during periods of net loss, there was no difference between the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Note 13 Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Pending Adoption as of March 31, 2021

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13, together with a series of subsequently issued related ASUs, has been codified in Topic 326. Topic 326 establishes new requirements for companies to estimate expected credit losses when measuring certain financial assets, including accounts receivables. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
