NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc., (“Emmaus”) and its direct and indirect consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “our,” “us” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements contain adjustments, including normal recurring accruals necessary to fairly state the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 14, 2025. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2024 contained in the Annual Report. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future interim period.

Nature of Operations

The Company is a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development, marketing and sales of innovative treatments and therapies, primarily for rare and orphan diseases. The Company’s only product, Endari® (prescription grade L-glutamine oral powder), is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, and in certain jurisdictions in the Middle East North Africa, or MENA, region to reduce the acute complications of sickle cell disease (“SCD”) in adult and pediatric patients five years of age and older.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Annual Report. There have been no material changes in these policies or their application.

Going concern— The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss of $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and had a working capital deficit of $57.1 million as of June 30, 2025. The Company’s indebtedness included in its current liabilities and its expected working capital needs, including debt service on its existing indebtedness and the expected costs relating to the commercialization of Endari® in the MENA region and elsewhere, exceed its existing cash balances and cash expected to be generated from operations for the foreseeable future. To meet the Company’s current liabilities and future obligations, the Company will need to restructure or refinance its existing indebtedness and raise additional funds through related-party loans, third-party loans, equity or debt financings or licensing or other strategic agreements. The Company has no understanding or arrangement for any restructuring, refinancing, or financing, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to restructure or refinance its existing indebtedness or obtain additional related-party or third-party loans or complete any additional equity or debt financings on favorable terms, or at all, or enter into licensing or other strategic arrangements. Due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to meet its current liabilities and operating expenses, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date that these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Principles of consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and EMI Holding, Inc. subsidiary and EMI Holding’s wholly‑owned subsidiary, Emmaus Medical Inc., and Emmaus Medical, Inc’s wholly‑owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Estimates—Financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management include those relating to revenue recognition on product sales, the variables used to calculate the valuation of investment in convertible bond, conversion features, stock options and warrants, and estimated accruals on an ongoing basis. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s financial statements will be affected.

Revenue recognition— The Company realizes net revenues primarily from sales of Endari® to distributors and specialty pharmacy providers. Distributors resell Endari® to other pharmacy and specialty pharmacy providers, health care providers, hospitals, and clinics. In addition to agreements with these distributors, the Company has contractual arrangements with specialty pharmacy providers, in-office dispensing providers, physician group purchasing organizations, pharmacy benefits managers and government entities that provide for government-mandated or privately negotiated rebates, chargebacks and discounts with respect to the purchase of Endari®. These various discounts, rebates, and chargebacks are referred to as “variable consideration.” Revenue from product sales is recorded net of variable consideration.

Under ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue when its customers obtain control of the Company's product, which typically occurs on delivery. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the product, or transaction price. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following 5 steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the Company’s performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the relevant performance obligations.

Revenue from product sales is recorded at the transaction price, net of estimates for variable consideration consisting of sales discounts, returns, government rebates, chargebacks and commercial discounts. Variable consideration is estimated using the expected-value amount method, which is the sum of probability-weighted amounts in a range of possible transaction prices. Actual variable consideration may differ from the Company's estimates. If actual results vary from the Company's estimates, the Company adjusts the variable consideration in the period such variances become known, which would affect net revenues in that period. The following are our significant categories of variable consideration:

Sales Discounts: The Company provides its customers prompt payment discounts and from time to time offers additional discounts for bulk orders that are recorded as a reduction of revenues in the period the revenues are recognized.

Product Returns: The Company offers distributors the right to return product purchased principally based upon (i) overstocks, (ii) inactive product or non-moving product due to market conditions, and (iii) expired products. Product return allowances are estimated and recorded at the time of sale.

Government Rebates: The Company is subject to discount obligations under state Medicaid programs and the Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage gap program. Management estimates Medicaid and Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage gap rebates based upon a range of possible outcomes that are probability-weighted for the estimated payor mix. These reserves are recorded in the period in which the related revenues are recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenues and the establishment of a current liability that is included as an accounts payable and accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. The liability for these rebates consists primarily of estimates of claims expected to be received in future periods related to recognized revenues.

Chargebacks and Discounts: Chargebacks for fees and discounts represent the estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell products to certain specialty pharmacy providers, in-office dispensing providers, group purchasing organizations, and government entities at prices lower than the list prices charged to distributors. The distributors charge the Company for the difference between what they pay for the products and the Company’s contracted selling price to these specialty pharmacy providers, in-office dispensing providers, group purchasing organizations, and government entities. In addition, the Company has contractual agreements with pharmacy benefit managers who charge us for rebates and administrative fee in connection with the utilization of product. These reserves are established in the same period that the related revenues are recognized, resulting in a reduction of revenues. Chargeback amounts are generally determined at the time of resale of products by the distributors.

Accounts receivable— Accounts receivables are primarily attributable to product sales to distributors and other customers. Each reporting period, the Company evaluates the collectability of outstanding receivable balances and records an allowance for credit loss based on an estimate of current expected credit loss. The estimate is based on historical experience, customer creditworthiness, facts and circumstance specific to outstanding balances and payment terms. Provisions are made based upon a specific review of all significant outstanding invoices and the quality and age of those invoices. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company recorded no valuation allowances. The Company believes the credit risks associated with its customers are not significant.

Inventories—Inventories consist of raw materials, finished goods and work-in-process and are valued on a first‑in, first‑out basis at the lesser of cost or net realizable value. Work‑in‑process inventories consist of L‑glutamine for the Company’s products that has not yet been packaged and labeled for sale. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company periodically reviews its inventory and provides for potential obsolescence based on its assessment of market conditions and anticipated demand. Substantially all raw materials purchase during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and the year ended

December 31, 2024 were supplied, directly or indirectly by one supplier. Inventories are presented net of reserves totaling $5.0 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Share‑based compensation—The Company recognizes compensation cost for share‑based compensation awards during the service term of the recipients of the share‑based awards. The fair value of share‑based compensation is calculated using the Black‑Scholes‑Merton pricing model. The Black‑Scholes‑Merton model requires subjective assumptions regarding future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. The expected term of awards granted is calculated using the simplified method. The risk‑free rate selected to value any grant is based on the U.S. Treasury rate on the grant date that corresponds to the expected term of the award.

Investment in convertible bond – The Company has measured its investment in convertible bond at fair value. The convertible bond is classified as available for sale and the changes in fair value are reported in other comprehensive loss for each reporting period.

Financial instruments—Financial instruments included in the financial statements are comprised of cash and cash equivalents, investment in convertible bond, accounts receivable, warrant derivative liabilities, accounts payable, certain accrued liabilities, convertible notes payable, notes payable, conversion feature liabilities and other contingent liabilities.

Fair value measurements—The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in accordance with ASC 820. The Company measures fair value under a framework that provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and

Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 inputs must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair value measurement level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, other current assets, account payable and accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of those instruments.

The investment in convertible bond, the convertible features on convertible debt instruments and certain outstanding warrants that contain price adjustment provision are remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. The level 3 inputs in the valuation and valuation methods used are discussed in Note 5, 7 and 8. There are no other assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Derivative liability—The Company evaluates its financial instruments including convertible notes to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC 815. The Company applies significant judgment to identify and evaluate terms and conditions in these contracts and agreements to determine whether embedded derivative exists. If all the requirements for bifurcation are met, embedded derivatives are separately measured from the host contract. Bifurcated embedded derivatives are initially recorded at fair value and then remeasure at each reporting period, with change in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Bifurcated embedded derivative are classified as separate liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company's derivative liability related to the conversion feature embedded in the convertible promissory notes. See note 7 for further details.

Net loss per share — The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Dilutive net loss per share is computed in a similar manner, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The following securities were not included diluted shares outstanding because the effect would be anti-dilutive (in shares).

NOTE 5 — INVESTMENTS

Investment in convertible bond - On September 28, 2020, the Company entered into a convertible bond purchase agreement pursuant to which it purchased at face value a convertible bond of Telcon in the principal amount of approximately $26.1 million which matures on October 16, 2030 and bears interest at the rate of 2.1% per year, payable quarterly. Beginning October 16, 2021, the Company became entitled on a quarterly basis to call for early redemption of all or any portion of the principal amount of the convertible bond. The convertible bond is convertible at the holder’s option at any time and from time to time into common shares of Telcon at an initial conversion price of KRW9,232, or approximately US$8.00 per share. The initial conversion price is subject to downward adjustment on a monthly based on the volume-weighted average market price of Telcon shares as reported on Korean Securities Dealers Automated Quotations Market and in the event of the issuance of Telcon shares or share equivalents at a price below the market price of Telcon shares and to customary antidilution adjustments upon a merger or similar reorganization of Telcon or a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or similar event. On December 30, 2024, Telcon undertook a reverse stock split at a rate of 1-for-10. The conversion price as of June 30, 2025 is set forth in the “Investment in convertible bond” table below. The convertible bond and any proceeds therefrom, including proceeds from any exercise of the early redemption right described above or the call option described below, are pledged as collateral to secure the Company’s obligations under the revised API Supply Agreement with Telcon described in Notes 6 and 11.

Concurrent with the purchase of the convertible bond, the Company entered into an agreement dated September 28, 2020 with Telcon pursuant to which Telcon or its designee is entitled to repurchase, at par, up to 50% of the principal amount of the convertible bond at any time and from time to time commencing October 16, 2021 and prior to maturity.

The investment in convertible bond is classified as an available for sale security since management does not have intention to trade nor held until maturity, and measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs, with any changes in the fair value recorded in other comprehensive loss. The fair value and any changes in fair value in the convertible bond is determined using a

binominal lattice model. The model produces an estimated fair value based on changes in the price of the underlying common stock over successive periods of time.

The revised API agreement with Telcon described in Note 6 provides for target annual revenue of more than $5 million and annual “profit” (i.e., sales margin) to Telcon of $2.5 million. To the extent these targets are not met, which management refers to as a “target shortfall,” Telcon may be entitled to payment of the target shortfall or to settle the target shortfall by exchange of principal and interest on the Telcon convertible bond and proceeds thereof that are pledged as a collateral to secure the Company’s obligations under the API Supply Agreement and the revised API Agreement.

In April 2024, Telcon offset KRW3.5 billion, or approximately $2.5 million, against the principal amount of the Telcon convertible bond and the Company released KRW893 million, or approximately $640,000, in cash proceeds to Telcon in satisfaction of the target shortfall for the year ended 2023. As a result, the Company realized a net loss on investment in convertible bond of $347,000, which previously was classified as unrealized gain on debt securities available-for-sale in the other comprehensive loss.

In April 2025, Telcon offset KRW3.1 billion, or approximately $2.1 million, against the principal amount of the Telcon convertible bond and the Company released KRW49 million, or approximately $34,000, in cash proceeds to Telcon in satisfaction of the target shortfall for the year ended 2024. As a result, the Company realized a net loss on investment in convertible bond of $531,000, which previously was classified as unrealized gain on debt securities available-for-sale in the other comprehensive loss.

The following table sets forth the fair value and changes in fair value of the investment in the Telcon convertible bond as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

Equity method investment – During 2018, the Company and Japan Industrial Partners, Inc., or JIP, formed EJ Holdings, Inc., or EJ Holdings, to acquire, own and operate an amino acids manufacturing facility in Ube, Japan. In connection with the formation, the Company invested approximately $32,000 in exchange for 40% of EJ Holdings' capital shares. JIP owned 60% of EJ Holdings' capital shares. In October 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement with EJ Holdings under which the Company made an unsecured loan to EJ Holdings in the amount of $13.6 million. The loan proceeds were used by EJ Holdings to purchase the Ube facility in December 2019 and pay related taxes. The principal (JPY 3,637,335,720) will become due and payable in two equal installments on December 28, 2027 and on September 30, 2028 and bears interest at the rate of 1% payable annually. The parties also contemplated that the Ube facility would eventually supply the Company with the facility’s output of amino acids, that the operation of the facility would be principally for the Company’s benefit and, as such, that major decisions affecting EJ Holdings and the Ube facility would be made by EJ Holdings’ board of directors, a majority of which were representatives of JIP, in consultation with the Company. The Company suspended further loans to EJ Holdings in September 2023.

EJ Holdings has had no substantial revenues since its inception, has dependent on loans from the Company to acquire the Ube facility and fund its operations and will be dependent on loans from other financing unless and until its plant is activated and it

can secure customers for its products. There is no assurance that needed funding will be available from other sources. If EJ Holdings fails to obtain needed funding, it may need to suspend activities at the Ube plant.

On December 28, 2023, the Company sold and assigned its EJ Holdings shares at its original cost of JPY3.6 million or US$25,304 to Niihara International, Inc., which was formed by Yutaka Niihara, M.D., Ph. D., former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a principal stockholder of the Company. In January 2024, JIP also sold their EJ Holdings' capital share to Niihara International, Inc. In connection with the sale and assignment, the Company derecognized its investment in EJ Holdings, including $1.5 million of currency translation adjustments recorded in other comprehensive loss. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the face amount of the loan receivable from EJ Holdings was $25.8 million, which was reflected in $16.9 million of net loan receivable from EJ Holdings as contra-equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On February 9, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement in which the Company sold and issued to purchasers in a private placement pursuant to Rule 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D thereunder approximately $14.5 million principal amount of convertible promissory notes of the Company a face value.

Commencing one year from the original issue date, the convertible promissory notes became convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.48 per share, which equaled the “Average volume-weighted average price" ("Average VWAP”) of the Company’s common stock on the effective date. The initial conversion price is subject to adjustment as of the end of each three-month period following the original issue date, commencing May 31, 2021, to equal the Average VWAP as of the end of such three-month period if such Average VWAP is less than the then-conversion price. There is no floor on the conversion price. The conversion price will be subject to further adjustment in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split or certain other events specified in the convertible promissory notes. In January 2023, $500,000 principal amount of convertible promissory notes was converted into 1,351,351 shares of the Company's common stock. In April 2023, $1 million principal amount of the convertible promissory note was converted into 2,702,702 shares of common stock. In April 2024, $260,000 principal amount plus accrued interest was converted into 2,019,608 shares of the Company's stock. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company repaid $455,000 principal amount of the convertible promissory notes. For six month ended June 30, 2025, the Company repaid total principal amount of $210,000. As of June 30, 2025, the conversion price was $0.02 per share.

The convertible promissory notes bear interest at the rate of 2% per year (10% in case of default), payable semi-annually on the last business day of August and January of each year and matured on the 3rd anniversary of the original issue date. The convertible promissory notes are prepayable in whole or in part at the election of the holders. The convertible promissory notes are general, unsecured obligations of the Company.

In February and March 2024, Company entered into Exchange Agreements (the "Exchange Notes") with certain convertible notes holders pursuant to which it agreed to issue total of $11.1 million principal amount of convertible promissory notes of the Company due one year from issuance of the Exchange Notes in exchange for the surrender for cancellation and satisfaction in full of a like principal amount of our outstanding convertible promissory notes due in 2024. The surrendered notes bore interest at the annual rate of 2%, payable semi-annually, and were convertible at the election of the holder into shares of the Company's common stock at the conversion rate of $0.13 per share. The Exchange Notes bear interest at the annual rate of 10% and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion rate of $0.13 per share, subject to decrease, but not increase, at the end of each three-month period from issuance to equal the VWAP (as defined) of the Company’s common stock and to adjustment in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split and similar events. The principal amount of and accrued interest on the Exchange Notes will be payable in two equal semi-annual installments. No additional consideration was paid in connection with the exchange. The convertible promissory notes are general, unsecured obligations of the Company. Management evaluated if the transaction qualified as troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470-60. Since the Company was experiencing financial difficulty and the effective borrowing rate on the restructured debt is less than the effective borrowing rate on the original debt, this transaction was accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring. As a result, the Company recorded gain on restructured debt of $1.0 million in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025, $11.0 million principal amount of the Exchange Notes was due and payable on demand.

The conversion feature of the original convertible promissory notes and the Exchange Notes is separately accounted for at fair value as a derivative liability under guidance in ASC 815 that is remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs, with any changes in the fair value of the conversion feature liability recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table sets forth the fair value of the conversion feature liability as of December 31, 2024 (in thousands). As of June 30,

2025, the convertible promissory note became due and the conversion rate exceeded stock price and, therefore, the fair value of conversion feature was determined to be zero.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

In the following discussion, the terms, “we,” “us,” “our,” “Emmaus” or the “Company” refer to Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 14, 2025 (the “Annual Report”).

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than historical facts contained in this report, including statements regarding our future financial position, capital expenditures, cash flows, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “seek,” “estimate,” “project,” “could,” “may” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements include, among others, information regarding future operations, future capital expenditures, and future net cash flow. Such statements reflect our management’s current views with respect to future events and financial performance and involve risks and uncertainties, including those set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the Annual Report, many of which are beyond our control.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary materially and adversely from those anticipated, believed, estimated or otherwise indicated. Consequently, all forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q are qualified by these cautionary statements. We undertake no duty to amend or update these statements beyond what is required by SEC reporting requirements.

Company Overview

We are a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development, marketing and sale of innovative treatments and therapies, primarily for rare and orphan diseases. Our only product, Endari® (prescription-grade L-glutamine oral powder) is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, to reduce the acute complications of sickle cell disease (“SCD”), in adult and pediatric patients five years of age and older. In April 2022, Endari® was approved by the Ministry of Health and Prevention in the United Arab Emirates, or U.A.E, in adults and pediatric patients five years of age and older. In November and December of 2022, we received marketing authorizations for Endari® in Qatar and Kuwait, respectively. In May 2023, we received approval for marketing of Endari to treat SCD from the Bahrain National Health Regulatory Authority. In July 2023, we received marketing approval for Endari® in Oman. Application for marketing authorization in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is pending. While the application is pending, the FDA approval of Endari® can be referenced to allow access to Endari® on a named-patient basis.

Endari® is sold in the U.S. through our nonexclusive distributors. Until August 2024, Endari® was marketed and sold in the U.S. by our internal commercial sales team. In August 2024, we reduced our internal sales team and in October terminated the employment of our Chief Commercialization Officer. Endari® is reimbursable by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and every state provides coverage for Endari® for outpatient prescriptions to all eligible Medicaid enrollees within their state Medicaid programs. Endari® is also reimbursable by many commercial payors. We have agreements in place with the nation’s leading distributors as well as physician group purchasing organizations and pharmacy benefits managers, making Endari® available at selected retail and specialty pharmacies nationwide.

As of June 30, 2025, our accumulated deficit was $266.0 million and we had cash and cash equivalents of $0.9 million. Until we can generate sufficient net revenues from Endari® sales, our future cash requirements are expected to be financed through loans from related parties, third-party loans, public or private equity or debt financings or possible corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. We are unable to predict if or when we may generate increased net revenues.

Results of Operations:

Three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024

Net Revenues. Net revenues decreased by $2.6 million, or 48%, to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $5.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 due to a decrease of U.S. sales, which management attributes to competition from a generic version of L-Glutamine oral powder introduced into U.S. market in mid-2024 as discussed below, partially offset by an increase of sales in the MENA region.

On July 15, 2024, ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc., or ANI, announced the launch of its L-Glutamine Oral Powder, a generic version of Endari®, following final approval of its Abbreviated New Drug Application from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The introduction of ANI’s generic product or other generic versions of L-Glutamine oral powder has adversely affected Endari® sales and is likely to adversely affect the reimbursement rates that Medicare, Medicaid and third-party payors are willing to pay for Endari®, which could have a material, adverse effect on our future sales and net revenues.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold decreased by $0.1 million, or 38%, to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in U.S. sales discussed above.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses decreased by $0.1 million, or 71%, to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in payroll expenses from a reduction in headcount in the third quarter of 2024.

Selling Expenses. Selling expenses decreased by $1.0 million, or 59%, to $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $0.4 million in payroll expenses from a reduction in headcount in U.S. sales force in the third quarter of 2024 and $0.4 million in consulting fee.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by $0.4 million, or 16%, to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $0.3 million in professional services, $0.2 million in payroll expenses attributable to the reduction in headcount and $0.1 million in rent expenses, partially offset by $0.3 million in legal settlement.

Other Expense. Total other expenses decreased by $1.3 million, or 50%, to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $1.4 million in change in fair value of conversion feature derivative and an increase of $0.9 million in gain on lease modification, partially offset by an increase of $0.7 million in interest expense.

Net Loss. Net loss was approximately $1.1 million and $2.2 million for three months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. The decrease in net loss was due primarily to decreases in other expenses and operating expenses, partially offset by a reduction of net revenues.

Six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024

Net Revenues. Net revenues decreased by $2.7 million, or 34 %, to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 due to competition from a generic version of L-Glutamine oral powder introduced into U.S. market in mid-2024, partially offset by an increase of sales in the MENA region.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold decreased by $0.1 million, or 25%, to $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in sales discussed above.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses decreased by $0.1 million, or 38%, to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in payroll expenses from a reduction in headcount.

Selling Expenses. Selling expenses decreased by $2.2 million, or 63%, to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $1.0 million in payroll expense, $0.9 million in consulting fees and $0.1 million in travel expense.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by $1.0 million, or 17%, to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreases of $0.6 million in payroll expense including share-based compensation, $0.5 million in professional service fees and $0.2 million in rent expense, partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million in legal settlement fee.

Other Expense. Total other expense decreased by $1.6 million, or 38%, to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $2.5 million in change in fair value of conversion feature derivative and an increase of $0.9 million in gain on lease modification, partially offset by a decrease of $1.0 million in gain on restructured debt and an increase of $0.4 million in loss on debt extinguishments.

Net Loss. Net loss was $3.5 million and $6.5 million for six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Based on our losses to date, current liabilities and anticipated future net revenues, operating expenses and debt repayment obligations, and cash and cash equivalents of $0.9 million as of June 30, 2025, we do not have sufficient operating capital for our business without raising additional capital. We realized a net loss of $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and we may continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future and until we can generate increased net revenues from Endari® sales. There is no assurance that we will be able to increase our Endari® sales or attain sustainable profitability or that we will have sufficient capital resources to fund our operations until we are able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations.

Liquidity represents our ability to pay our liabilities when they become due, fund our business operations, meet our contractual obligations, including repayment of our existing indebtedness and the purchase of API under our supply arrangements with Telcon, and execute our business plan. Our primary sources of liquidity are our cash balances at the beginning of each period, sales of future receipts to third parties, proceeds from related-party loans and other financing activities. Our short-term and long-term cash requirements consist primarily of working capital requirements, general corporate needs, our contractual obligations to purchase API from Telcon and pay debt service under our outstanding notes payable.

As of June 30, 2025, we had outstanding $15.9 million principal amount of convertible promissory notes and $11.5 million principal amount of other notes payable reflected in our current liabilities. Our minimum lease payment obligations were $1.9 million, of which $0.3 million was payable within 12 months.

Our API supply agreement with Telcon provides for an annual API purchase target of $5 million and a target “profit” (i.e., gross margin) to Telcon of $2.5 million. To the extent these targets are not met, Telcon may be entitled to payment of the shortfall or to offset the shortfall against the Telcon convertible bond and proceeds thereof that are pledged as collateral to secure our obligations. With our consent, in April 2025, Telcon offset KRW3.1 billion, or approximately $2.1 million, against the principal amount of the Telcon convertible bond and we released KRW49 million, or approximately $34,000, in cash proceeds to Telcon in satisfaction the target shortfall for the year ended 2024.

Due to uncertainties regarding our ability to meet our current and future operating and capital expenses, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date that our condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, as referred to in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report and Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

Cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024

Net cash used in operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $0.1 million, or 5%, to $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of loss from operations.

Net cash provided by investing activities

Net cash provided by investing activities decreased by $0.3 million, or 13%, to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of proceeds from sales of Telcon convertible bond.

Net cash used in financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $0.7 million, or 92%, to $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was due to an increase of $0.8 million in proceeds from note payable issued partially offset by an increase of $0.1 million in repayments of promissory notes and convertible notes.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments, including but not limited to those relating revenue recognition on product sales, the variables used to calculate the valuation of investment in convertible bond, conversion feature, stock options and warrants. We base our estimates on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the present circumstances. These estimates and assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

Refer to “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of the Annual Report for our critical accounting policies. There have been no material changes in any of our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not required for a smaller reporting company.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (“DCP”) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. DCP include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of our DCP. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that the Company’s DCP were not effective due to the material weaknesses described below.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025 which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Material Weaknesses

As previously reported, our management identified ongoing material weaknesses (the “Material Weaknesses”) in our internal control over financial reporting. The Material Weaknesses related to inadequate accounting treatment for complex accounting matters, inadequate financial closing process, segregation of duties, including access control over information technology, especially financial information, inadequate documentation of policies and procedures over risk assessments, internal control and significant account processes, and insufficient entity risk assessment processes.

Since identifying the Material Weaknesses, we took steps to remediate the Material Weaknesses, including:

•

engaging third-party accounting consulting firms to assist us in the review of our application of GAAP to complex transactions;

•

using GAAP Disclosure and SEC Reporting Checklists;

•

continuing professional training and academic education on accounting subjects for accounting staff;

•

enhancing attention to review controls related to our financial closing process and reporting;

•

subscribing to relevant online services and other supplemental internal and external resources relating to SEC reporting; and

•

establishing a Disclosure Committee to ensure more effective internal communication regarding significant transactions and our financial reporting.

We implemented an integrated cloud-based enterprise resource planning system to manage our financial information and replace our outdated financial accounting systems and software. As a result of these actions, management has concluded that the certain material weaknesses identified in previous fiscal years have been remediated but that there continued to be material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. In particular, our finance and accounting department is not adequately staffed, which has sometimes resulted in not all policies and procedures being properly documented.
