Nature of the Business

Teligent, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”) is a specialty generic pharmaceutical company. Teligent’s mission is to become a leader in the specialty generic pharmaceutical market in alternate dosage forms. Under its own label, the Company markets and sells generic topical, branded generic, and generic injectable pharmaceutical products in the United States and Canada. In the United States, the Company currently markets thirty-eight generic topical pharmaceutical products and four branded generic pharmaceutical products. In Canada, the Company sells thirty-two generic and branded generic injectable products and medical devices. Generic pharmaceutical products are bioequivalent to their brand name counterparts. The Company also provides contract manufacturing services to the pharmaceutical, over the counter (“OTC”) and cosmetic markets. The Company operates its business under one segment. Its common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the trading symbol “TLGT.” The Company’s principal executive office, laboratories, and manufacturing facilities are located at 105 Lincoln Avenue, Buena, New Jersey. It has additional offices located in Iselin, New Jersey, Mississauga, Canada, and Tallinn, Estonia.

Impact Related to COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and the Company expects its operations in all locations to be affected as the virus continues to proliferate. In alignment with the directives in the state of New Jersey, as a Pharmaceutical manufacturing facility, Teligent is considered "essential" and the Company has remained open for its business. The Company will stay open as long as permitted and conditions remain safe for its employees to continue to supply its products to the patients that need them. Teligent’s first priority is the health and safety of its employees while positioning its business to manage throughout this Pandemic. The outbreak and any preventative or protective actions that Teligent, its customers, suppliers or other third parties with which it has business relationships, or governments may take in respect of the COVID-19 outbreak could disrupt its business and the business of its customers. Global health concerns, such as COVID-19, could also result in social, economic, and labor instability in the countries in which the Company or the third parties with whom it engages operate. In addition, the COVID-19 outbreak could result in a severe economic downturn and has already significantly affected the financial markets of many countries. A severe or prolonged economic downturn or political disruption could result in a variety of risks to its business, including its ability to raise capital when needed on acceptable terms, if at all. A weak or declining economy or political disruption could also strain its suppliers or third party CMOs, possibly resulting in supply disruption, or cause its customers to delay purchases or payments for its products. The COVID-19 pandemic may also create delays in the review and approval of its regulatory submissions as well as its pending reinspection related to the Company's warning letter and pre-approval inspection for commercial production on the newly installed injectable line at the Company’s New Jersey facility by the FDA. Given these uncertainties, the Company is unable to predict the overall impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its business as of the date of this filing.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company has taken preventative measures to help ensure business continuity while maintaining safe and stable operations. It has directed all non-production employees to work from home in accordance with state and local guidelines and has implemented social distancing measures on-site at its manufacturing facility to protect employees and its products. Its employees are provided daily personal protective equipment upon their arrival to the facility and the Company has implemented temperature monitoring services at its newly established single point of entrance. The Company has also implemented a bi-weekly sanitization process of the facility. It has adjusted its production schedule to concentrate on high demand or low stock product to help reduce employee concentrations while continuing to focus on our customer demand.

Under the provisions of ASC 360-10-55, the Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The current financial results and anticipated future results of the Company have been negatively impacted due to COVID-19 and therefore the Company performed an impairment analysis for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, by comparing the expected future cash flows of the assets to the carrying value of the related intangible assets. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $8.4 million in the current quarter related to trademarks and technology of $4.9 million and product acquisition costs of $3.5 million (Note 9).

The Company initiated a company-wide cost reduction initiative targeted at eliminating discretionary spending and ensuring that remaining expenditures are reduced in line with the lower demand for our products in light of COVID-19 impact to the business. The Company's Executive Leadership Team and all employees with annual salaries exceeding
$100,000 accepted a 20% and 15% eight-week reduction in pay, respectively, beginning May 4, 2020. Over the same eight-week period, the Company furloughed a portion of employees at its Buena, NJ manufacturing facility.

On May 15, 2020 the Company received $3.3 million of proceeds from the U.S. Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) in May which is intended to help businesses keep their workforce employed during the COVID-19 crisis. The Company plans to balance the employee-related actions previously taken with the needs of the business to ensure a portion of the loan will be forgiven

From late March to the end of April 2020, several data sources suggested that patient visits to the dermatologist in the United States were down more than 50% in comparison to the typical number of dermatologist visits realized prior to shelter-in-place guidelines. These percentages vary by state. In May, as some states began to relax shelter-in-place guidelines there are signs that suggest patients are beginning to return to the dermatologist and demand for the Company’s US topical products will follow. Given the level of uncertainty and potential consequences of less stringent guidelines, it is still extremely challenging to predict the pace of the anticipated ramp and whether or not there might be a second wave of decline.

Going Concern

ASU 205-40 – Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern requires management to evaluate an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are available for issuance. Specifically, management is required to evaluate whether the presence of negative conditions or events, when considered individually and in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Substantial doubt exists when it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date the financial statements are available for issuance. Management has identified the following negative conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as of March 31, 2020:

The Company has incurred significant losses and generated negative cash flows from operations in recent years and expects to continue to incur losses and generate negative cash flow for the foreseeable future. As a result, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $148.3 million, total principal amount of outstanding borrowings of $190.3 million, and limited capital resources to fund ongoing operations at March 31, 2020. These capital resources were comprised of cash and equivalents of $11.7 million at March 31, 2020 and the generation of cash inflows from working capital. The Company’s available capital resources may not be sufficient for it to continue to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months if the Company cannot improve its operating results or increase its operating cash inflows. In the event these capital resources are not sufficient, the Company may need to raise additional capital through the sale of equity or debt securities, enter into strategic business collaboration agreements with other companies, seek other funding facilities, or sell assets. However, the Company cannot provide assurances that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Moreover, if the Company is unable to meet its obligations when they become due over the next twelve months through its available capital resources, or obtain new sources of capital when needed, the Company may have to delay expenditures, reduce the scope of its manufacturing operations, reduce or eliminate one or more of its development programs, make significant changes to its operating plan or cease its operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As disclosed in Note 7, the Company is subject to certain financial covenants as set forth in the April 6, 2020 amendments to the Senior Credit Facilities. These financial covenants include a trailing twelve months (“TTM”) Minimum Revenue covenant that is required to be met each quarterly period from March 31, 2020 through December 31, 2020, a TTM Minimum Adjusted EBITDA that is required to be met each quarterly period from March 31, 2021 through maturity, and a minimum liquidity covenant tested at all times through the term of the agreement. These amendments supersede the financial covenants included in the original and amended agreements disclosed in Note 7. In the event the Company is unable to comply with these covenants, or obtain a waiver from its lenders, the lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to permanently reduce the commitment in whole or in part or to declare all or any portion of the outstanding balance due and payable. Furthermore, in the event that outstanding balances under the Ares Credit agreements are declared due and payable by the lender, the lenders of the 2023 Series A and Series B Unsecured Convertible Notes shall have the right, but not the obligation, to declare all of the outstanding balance due and payable as well. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital to meet these obligations, the Company may have to seek other strategic
alternatives, including ceasing its operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as of March 31, 2020. However, as a result of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company expects to be unable to continue to comply with the trailing twelve months revenue covenant throughout 2020. If it fails to comply with its trailing twelve months revenue covenant, an event of default under the Credit Agreements would be triggered and its obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities (defined in Note 7) or other agreements (including as a result of cross-default provisions) may be accelerated. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a $5.3 million derivative liability associated with certain mandatory prepayment penalties and the recognition of future interest payments in the anticipation of a potential future default on its Senior Credit Facilities (Note 8).
•In June 2019, the Company received a de-listing notice from the NASDAQ due to its share price being below $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days. The notice specified that the Company's share price must trade above $1.00 per share for ten consecutive trading days prior to December 2, 2019 in order to prevent its common stock from being de-listed. For the 180 days preceding December 2, 2019 the Company's share price remained below $1.00. The Company requested a second 180-day extension. NASDAQ denied its request and the Company chose to file for an appeal. The Company was granted a hearing date for the end of January 2020. Subsequent to the appeal hearing, NASDAQ set a deadline of April 17, 2020 for the Company to regain compliance with NASDAQ’s continuing listing requirements. In early March 2020 the COVID-19 global pandemic triggered a significant decline in global capital markets, including NASDAQ. In light of this significant decline, the Company requested NASDAQ to reconsider the April 17, 2020 deadline. NASDAQ agreed to the Company’s request and set a new deadline to regain compliance by June 1, 2020. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and related extraordinary market conditions, NASDAQ provided additional temporary relief ("Relief") from the continued listing bid price and market value of publicly held shares listing requirements through August 17, 2020. Under the Relief, the company will have additional time to regain compliance with the NASDAQ through August 17, 2020. In January 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors and shareholders approved a reverse stock split in the range of any whole number between five (5) and ten (10) to one (1). While the Company believes that the reverse stock split will ultimately increase its share price above $1.00 for the required ten consecutive trading days, it can provide no assurances that its shares will trade above $1.00 per share for the required time period. A de-listing from the NASDAQ would be a “Fundamental Change” under the Company’s 2023 Series A and Series B Unsecured Convertible Notes which triggers a right by the holders to require the Company repurchase the Convertible Notes. In such an event, the Company would need to seek financing to repurchase the Convertible Notes and there is no guarantee that such financing would be available or on terms acceptable to the Company. If noteholders demanded a repurchase of the notes and the Company could not finance the repurchase, it would be in default under the Indentures governing the Convertible Notes, and in that event the lenders of the Ares Credit agreements would have the right, but not the obligation, to declare all of the outstanding balance under those agreements due and payable as well. Therefore, in the event of the Company’s shares are de-listed from the NASDAQ, the Company would likely have to seek some combination of waivers from its lenders and noteholders and seek new capital through the sale of equity or debt securities. If the Company is unable to obtain such waivers or raise new capital to meet these obligations if they become due, it may have to seek other strategic alternatives, including ceasing operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
