Note 1 — Organization, Business and Basis of Presentation:

Organization and Business

CorMedix Inc. (“CorMedix” or the “Company”), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic products for the prevention and treatment of infectious and inflammatory diseases, was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 28, 2006. In 2013, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, CorMedix Europe GmbH, based in Fulda, Germany.

The Company’s primary focus is to develop its lead product candidate, CRMD003 (also known as Neutrolin ® ), for potential commercialization in the United States (“U.S.”) and other key markets. The Company has in-licensed the worldwide rights to develop and commercialize Neutrolin, which is a novel anti-infective solution (a formulation of taurolidine, citrate and heparin 1000 u/ml) under development for the reduction and prevention of catheter-related infections and thrombosis in patients requiring central venous catheters in clinical settings such as dialysis, critical/intensive care, and oncology.

The Company launched its first Phase 3 clinical trial in hemodialysis patients with catheters in the U.S. in December 2015. The clinical trial, named Catheter Lock Solution Investigational Trial or LOCK-IT-100, is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, active control trial which aims to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of Neutrolin in preventing catheter-related bloodstream infections, or CRBSI, in subjects receiving hemodialysis therapy as treatment for end stage renal disease (see Note 5 – Clinical and Regulatory). Two pivotal clinical trials to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of Neutrolin are required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). Based on its experience and recent feedback from the FDA on the LOCK-IT-100 trial, the Company is reassessing the structure of its planned second Phase 3 clinical trial to seek efficiencies and improvements in its design and execution. This reassessment is expected to be completed in the next several months.

The Company received CE Mark approval for Neutrolin in 2013 and commercially launched Neutrolin in Germany for the prevention of catheter-related bloodstream infections and maintenance of catheter patency in hemodialysis patients using a tunneled, cuffed central venous catheter for vascular access. To date, Neutrolin is registered and is being sold in certain European Union and Middle Eastern countries.

The completion of the Company’s ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial will depend on its ability to raise sufficient additional funds through various potential sources, such as equity, debt financings, and/or strategic relationships. Additional financing will also be required to fund the planned second Phase 3 clinical trial that is required by the FDA for marketing approval of Neutrolin. The Company can provide no assurances that financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, that may enable it to complete its Phase 3 clinical trial program.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of such interim results. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2017 or for any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of the Company which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 16, 2017. The accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 has been derived from the audited financial statements included in such Form 10-K.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard that requires that inventory be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value and options that currently exist for market value be eliminated. The standard defines net realizable value as estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation and is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued guidance that requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Liquidity, Going Concern and Uncertainties

The Company’s operations are subject to a number of factors that can affect its operating results and financial condition. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the Company’s ability to raise capital to support its operations; the cost, timing and results of clinical trials; the ability to obtain regulatory approval to market the Company’s products; competition from products manufactured and sold or being developed by other companies; the price of, and demand for, Company products; and the Company’s ability to negotiate favorable licensing or other manufacturing and marketing agreements for its products.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. To date, the Company’s commercial operations have not generated sufficient revenues to enable profitability. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $131.9 million, and had incurred net losses of $5.1 million and $12.7 million for the three and six months then ended. Based on the current development plans for Neutrolin in both the U.S. and foreign markets (including the ongoing hemodialysis Phase 3 clinical trial in the U.S.) and the Company’s other operating requirements, the Company’s existing cash and short-term investments at June 30, 2017 will fund its operations into the first quarter of 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

At June 30, 2017, approximately $3.7 million remained available for sale under an April 2015 $40.0 million At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Current ATM program”) with MLV & Co. LLC (“MLV”), which was a subsidiary of FBR Capital Markets & Co. (“FBR”), but was combined with B. Riley Financial, Inc. in June 2017. At June 30, 2017, t he Company also had approximately $46.0 million available under its current shelf registration for the issuance of equity, debt or equity-linked securities unrelated to the Current ATM program, which amount was originally $60.0 million. The sale of any equity securities through September 15, 2017 under this portion of the shelf registration statement is subject to participation rights held by Manchester Securities Corp. (“Manchester”) pursuant to which Manchester must either be offered 60% participation in such equity financing or the Company must obtain a waiver from Manchester. O n May 3, 2017, the Company closed on an equity financing under its current shelf registration statement, which raised net proceeds of approximately $12.8 million (see Note 3).

In August 2016, the Company entered into a new sales agreement with FBR whereby the Company can sell up to $40 million of shares of its common stock (the “Pending ATM Program”), but only if the Company obtains a waiver from Manchester of its participation rights and the pending registration statement covering this Pending ATM Program is declared effective, which conditions might not be met.

The Company’s continued operations including completion of its ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial as well as the other Phase 3 clinical program requirements for Neutrolin in the U.S. will depend on its ability to raise additional capital. Management is actively pursuing financing plans but can provide no assurances that such financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Without this funding, the Company will be required to delay, scale back or eliminate its ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial as well as work on the other Phase 3 clinical program requirements for Neutrolin in CRBSI which would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company .

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basis of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and CorMedix Europe GmbH, its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Financial Instruments

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit and other interest bearing accounts, the balances of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

The appropriate classification of marketable securities is determined at the time of purchase and reevaluated as of each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value that are considered temporary are reported net of tax in other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts and interest and dividends earned are included in income (expense). For declines in the fair value of equity securities that are considered other-than-temporary, impairment losses are charged to other (income) expense, net. The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments, including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost. There were no deemed permanent impairments at June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

The Company’s marketable securities are highly liquid and consist of U.S. government agency securities, high-grade corporate obligations and commercial paper with original maturities of more than 90 days. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, all of the Company’s investments had contractual maturities of less than one year. The following table summarizes the amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses and the fair value at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s financial instruments recorded in the consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment securities, accounts payable, accrued expenses and warrant derivatives (see Note 3 – Stockholders’ Equity, Warrants). The carrying value of certain financial instruments, primarily cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair values based upon the short-term nature of their maturity dates.

The Company categorizes its financial instruments into a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets recorded at fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized as follows:

●

Level 1 inputs—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

●

Level 2 inputs— Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs).

●

Level 3 inputs—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are supported by little or no market activity and are valued based on management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars (“USD”), the reporting currency of the Company. For the financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiary, whose functional currency is the EURO, foreign currency asset and liability amounts are translated into USD at end-of-period exchange rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period in which the income and expenses were recognized. Translation gains and losses are included in other comprehensive loss.

The Company has intercompany loans between the parent company based in New Jersey and its German subsidiary. The intercompany loans outstanding are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future and unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans are recognized in other comprehensive income.

Foreign currency exchange transaction gain (loss) is the result of re-measuring transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity recording the transaction.

Restricted Cash

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s restricted cash is in connection with the patent and utility model infringement proceedings against TauroPharm (see Note 5). The Company was required by the District Court Mannheim to provide a security deposit of approximately $132,000 to cover legal fees in the event TauroPharm is entitled to reimbursement of these costs. The Company furthermore had to provide a deposit in the amount of $40,000 in connection with the unfair competition proceedings in Cologne.

Prepaid Research and Development

Prepaid expenses consist of payments made in advance to vendors relating to service contracts for clinical trial development and other research and development. These advanced payments are amortized to expense either as services are performed or over the relevant service period using the straight-line method.

Inventories, net

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market on a first in, first out basis. Inventories consist of raw materials (including labeling and packaging), work-in-process, and finished goods, if any, for the Neutrolin product. Inventories consist of the following:

Derivative Liability

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks; however, the Company has certain financial instruments that qualify as derivatives and are classified as liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those instruments or any potential embedded components of those instruments qualify as derivatives that need to be separately accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” . Derivatives satisfying certain criteria are recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date with the change in the fair value recorded as income or expense. In addition, upon the occurrence of an event that requires the derivative liability to be reclassified to equity, the derivative liability is revalued to fair value at that date.

The Company accounts for stock warrants as either equity instruments or derivative liabilities depending on the specific terms of the warrant agreement. Stock warrants that allow for cash settlement or meet certain other criteria are accounted for as derivative liabilities. The changes in fair value of the warrant liabilities are re-measured at each balance sheet date and recorded as income or expense.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized from product sales when the following four revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue once the four revenue recognition criteria are met in accordance with the terms of its various distribution agreements.

Deferred Revenue

In October 2015, the Company shipped product with less than 75% of its remaining shelf life to a customer and issued a guarantee that the specific product shipped would be replaced by the Company if the customer was not able to sell the product before it expired. As a result of this warranty, the Company may have an additional performance obligation (i.e. accept returned product and deliver new product to the customer) if the customer is unable to sell the short-dated product. Due to limited sales experience with the customer, the Company is unable to estimate the amount of the warranty obligation that may be incurred as a result of this shipment. Therefore, the Company has deferred the revenue and related cost of sales associated with the shipment of this product, presented net “deferred revenue” in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized $33,400 and $64,000 of deferred revenue and $19,600 and $37,600 in related cost of sales resulting in net amount of $13,800 and $26,400, respectively. Also, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company had recorded an additional net deferred revenue in the amount of $13,000 and $24,000, respectively.

Deferred revenue, net at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 amounted to approximately $101,900 and $104,200, respectively.

Loss per common share

Basic loss per common share excludes any potential dilution and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. However, since their effect is anti-dilutive, the Company has excluded potentially dilutive shares. The following potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Shares underlying outstanding warrants include an aggregate of 29,046,110 warrants issued on an underwritten public offering which closed on May 3, 2017 (see Note 3). Currently, the Company does not have sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock to cover the shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants.

Stock-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for options with service or performance-based conditions and a Monte Carlo option pricing model for options with market conditions. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period on a straight-line basis.

Effective October 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09 to account for forfeitures as they occur. All share-based awards will be recognized on a straight-line method, assuming all awards granted will vest. Forfeitures of share-based awards will be recognized in the period in which they occur. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-09, share-based compensation expense was recognized by applying the expected forfeiture rate during the vesting period to the fair value of the award. As of January 1, 2016, a cumulative effect adjustment of $129,730 was recognized to reflect the forfeiture rate that had been applied to unvested option awards prior to fiscal year 2016. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09, the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were adjusted to reflect the impact.

The Company accounts for stock options granted to non-employees on a fair value basis using the Black-Scholes option pricing model in accordance with ASC 718 and ASC No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” . The non-cash charge to operations for non-employee options with time-based vesting provisions is based on the fair value of the options re-measured each reporting period and amortized to expense over the related vesting period. The non-cash charge to operations for non-employee options with performance-based vesting provisions is recorded when the achievement of the performance condition is probable and re-measured each reporting period until the performance condition is achieved.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development includes fees associated with operational consultants, contract clinical research organizations, contract manufacturing organizations, clinical site fees, contract laboratory research organizations, contract central testing laboratories, licensing activities, and allocated executive, human resources and facilities expenses. The Company accrues for costs incurred as the services are being provided by monitoring the status of the trial and the invoices received from its external service providers. As actual costs become known, the Company adjusts its accruals in the period when actual costs become known. Costs related to the acquisition of technology rights and patents for which development work is still in process are charged to operations as incurred and considered a component of research and development expense.

Recent Authoritative Pronouncements

In July 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features and recharacterizes the indefinite deferral of certain provisions within the guidance for distinguishing liabilities from equity. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 — Stockholders’ Equity:

Common Stock

On May 3, 2017, the Company closed on an underwritten public offering of 18,619,301 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, together with Series A warrants (“Series A Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 13,964,476 shares of its common stock and Series B warrants (“Series B Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 13,964,476 shares of its common stock. Series A Warrants have an exercise price of $0.75 per share of common stock and will expire thirteen months following the Exercisable Date (defined below). Series B Warrants have an exercise price of $1.05 per share of common stock and will expire five years following the Exercisable Date. The net proceeds from this public offering was approximately $12.8 million.

The Company’s B oard of Directors has approved and recommended to the shareholders a proposal to amend the Company’s amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to increase the shares of authorized capital stock from 82,000,000 shares to 162,000,000 shares and to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 80,000,000 to 160,000,000 shares. On August 8, 2017, the shareholders approved the Charter Amendment. T he Company intends to effect the Charter Amendment as soon as possible by filing it with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

The Company paid the underwriter a commission equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds of the offering and also issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,117,158 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $0.9375, which represents 125% of the public offering price per combined share and related warrants. The underwriter warrant will expire five years following the Exercisable Date. Other than the exercise price, the terms of the underwriter warrant are the same as the Series B Warrants.

The Company does not currently have a sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock to cover the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued in this offering and therefore classified the fair value of the warrants in excess of the authorized shares as a derivative liability. Until such time as there are sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock to cover the shares issuable upon the exercise of these warrants, the warrants will be re-measured each reporting period, with any increase or decrease in value recorded as a loss or gain in the income statement. Before any warrants can become exercisable, the Company must receive stockholder approval of an amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock in an amount sufficient to cover all of the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The warrants will be exercisable on any day on or after the date that the Company publicly announces through the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K that the Charter Amendment has been approved by its stockholders and has become effective (the “Exercisable Date”).

Manchester, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Elliott Associates, L.P., and a beneficial holder of more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, partially exercised its participation rights and invested $2,000,000 in the offering.

The Company may issue and sell up to $40.0 million of shares of its common stock from time to time under the Current ATM Program through MLV acting as agent, subject to limitations imposed by the Company, such as the number or dollar amount of shares registered under the registration statement to which the Current ATM Program relates. At June 30, 2017, approximately $3.7 million remained available for sale under the Current ATM Program. When the Company wishes to issue and sell common stock under the Current ATM Program, it notifies MLV of the number of shares to be issued, the dates on which such sales are anticipated to be made, any minimum price below which sales may not be made and other sales parameters as the Company deems appropriate. MLV is entitled to a commission of up to 3% of the gross proceeds from the sale of common stock sold under the Current ATM Program. The shares of common stock to be sold under the Current ATM Program are registered under an effective registration statement filed with the SEC. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company issued 198,630 shares of common stock under the Current ATM Program and realized net proceeds of approximately $347,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company issued 10,000 shares of its common stock upon exercise of stock options resulting in gross proceeds of $6,800 to the Company.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company issued an aggregate of 75,000 shares of its common stock upon conversion of an aggregate of 7,500 Series C-3 non-voting preferred stock.

Stock Options

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company granted ten-year qualified and non-qualified stock options covering an aggregate of 1,257,500 shares of the Company’s common stock under the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, and 2016, total compensation expense for stock options issued to employees, directors, officers and consultants was $813,645 and $728,180, respectively, and $382,993 and $286,110 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

As of June 30, 2017, there was approximately $3,958,000 in total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options granted which expense will be recognized over an expected remaining weighted average period of 1.8 years.

The fair value of the grants are determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

	Six Months Ended June 30,

CORMEDIX INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company estimated the expected term of the stock options granted based on anticipated exercises in future periods. The expected term of the stock options granted to consultants is based upon the full term of the respective option agreements. Beginning January 1, 2017, the expected stock price volatility for the Company’s stock options is calculated based on the historical volatility since the initial public offering of the Company’s common stock in March 2010. In 2016 the expected stock price volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility since the initial public offering weighted pre and post CE Mark approval in the European Union. The expected dividend yield of 0.0% reflects the Company’s current and expected future policy for dividends on the Company’s common stock. To determine the risk-free interest rate, the Company utilized the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant with a term consistent with the expected term of the Company’s awards.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock options activity and related information for the six months ended June 30, 2017:

	Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at beginning of period	4,609,755	$ 2.29	8.2	$ 581,823
Exercised	(10,000 )	$ 0.68
Forfeited	(120,000 )	$ 2.24
Expired/Canceled	(27,710 )	$ 2.42
Granted	1,257,500	$ 1.66
Outstanding at end of period	5,709,545	$ 2.20	7.4	$ 0
Vested at end of period	2,580,540	$ 2.08	5.0	$ 0

The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $13,200, and $980,039, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise prices of the underlying options and the quoted closing price of the common stock of the Company at the end of the reporting period for those options that have an exercise price below the quoted closing price.

Restricted Stock Units

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company granted an aggregate of 107,931 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to its officers and directors under its 2013 Stock Incentive Plan with a weighted average grant date fair value of $2.22 per share. The fair value of each RSU was estimated to be the closing price of the Company’s common stock on each date of grant. These RSUs will vest over various dates through December 31, 2018. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compensation expense recorded for these RSUs was $14,626 and $35,998, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense for these RSUs as of June 30, 2017 amounted to $99,406. The expected weighted average period for the expense to be recognized is 0.95 years. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, 46,517 RSUs were forfeited. No RSUs were issued during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Warrants

As of June 30, 2017, there were 33,052,578 outstanding warrants, which includes an aggregate of 29,046,110 warrants issued in the May 2017 public offering of the Company’s common stock and warrants. Outstanding warrants have a weighted average exercise price of $0.99 per share and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 3.04 years. Currently, the Company does not have sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock to cover the shares issuable upon the exercise of 29,046,110 outstanding warrants issued in the May 2017 public offering. Therefore, these warrants are classified as liabilities and will continue to be liability-classified until there are sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock to cover the shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants. As long as the warrants are liability-classified, they will continue to be re-measured each reporting period, with any increase or decrease in value recorded as a loss or gain in the income statement.

The fair value of the warrants are determined using a probability-weighted Black-Scholes option pricing under different scenarios regarding the expected probability and timing of sufficient additional shares being authorized to allow the warrants to become exercisable. The following assumptions were used to value the warrants at the grant date.

	Series A	Series B	Underwriter’s
Expected Term	1.18 – 1.33 years	5.10 – 5.25 years	5.10 – 5.25 years
Volatility	55%	55%	55%

Exercise Price	$0.75	$1.05	$0.94
Risk-free interest rate	1.13% - 1.16%	1.86% - 1.88%	1.86% - 1.88%
Weighted average fair value of warrants granted	$0.08	$0.17	$0.18
Number of shares underlying warrants granted	13,964,476	13,964,476	1,117,158

As these warrants are liability-classified, they were revalued at June 30, 2017 using the following assumptions:

	Series A	Series B	Underwriter’s

Contingency Matters

On September 9, 2014, the Company filed in the District Court of Mannheim, Germany a patent infringement action against TauroPharm GmbH and Tauro-Implant GmbH as well as their respective CEOs (the “Defendants”) claiming infringement of the Company’s European Patent EP 1 814 562 B1, which was granted by the European Patent Office (the “EPO”) on January 8, 2014 (the “Prosl European Patent”). The Prosl European Patent covers a low dose heparin catheter lock solution for maintaining patency and preventing infection in a hemodialysis catheter. In this action, the Company claims that the Defendants infringe on the Prosl European Patent by manufacturing and distributing catheter locking solutions to the extent they are covered by the claims of the Prosl European Patent. The Company believes that its patent is sound, and is seeking injunctive relief and raising claims for information, rendering of accounts, calling back, destruction and damages. Separately, TauroPharm has filed an opposition with the EPO against the Prosl European Patent alleging that it lacks novelty and inventive step. The Company cannot predict what other defenses the Defendants may raise, or the ultimate outcome of either of these related matters.

In the same complaint against the same Defendants, the Company also alleged an infringement (requesting the same remedies) of ND Partners’ utility model DE 20 2005 022 124 U1 (the “Utility Model”), which the Company believes is fundamentally identical to the Prosl European Patent in its main aspects and claims. The Court separated the two proceedings and the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model claims are now being tried separately. TauroPharm has filed a cancellation action against the Utility Model before the German Patent and Trademark Office (the “German PTO”) based on the similar arguments as those in the opposition against the Prosl European Patent.

On March 27, 2015, the District Court held a hearing to evaluate whether the Utility Model has been infringed by TauroPharm in connection with the manufacture, sale and distribution of its TauroLock-HEP100 TM and TauroLock-HEP500 TM products. A hearing before the same court was held on January 30, 2015 on the separate, but related, question of infringement of the Prosl European Patent by TauroPharm.

The Court issued its decisions on May 8, 2015, staying both proceedings. In its decisions, the Court found that the commercialization by TauroPharm in Germany of its TauroLock catheter lock solutions Hep100 and Hep500 infringes both the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model and further that there is no prior use right that would allow TauroPharm to continue to make, use or sell its product in Germany. However, the Court declined to issue an injunction in favor of the Company that would preclude the continued commercialization by TauroPharm based upon its finding that there is a sufficient likelihood that the EPO, in the case of the Prosl European Patent, or the German PTO, in the case of the Utility Model, may find that such patent or utility model is invalid. Specifically, the Court noted the possible publication of certain instructions for product use that may be deemed to constitute prior art. As such, the District Court determined that it will defer any consideration of the request by the Company for injunctive and other relief until such time as the EPO or the German PTO made a final decision on the underlying validity of the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model.

The opposition proceeding against the Prosl European Patent before the EPO is ongoing. The EPO held a hearing in the opposition proceeding on November 25, 2015. In its preliminary consideration of the matter, the EPO (and the German PTO) had regarded the patent as not inventive or novel due to publication of prior art. However, the EPO did not issue a decision at the end of the hearing but adjourned the matter due to the fact that the panel was of the view that Claus Herdeis, one of the managing directors of TauroPharm, has to be heard as a witness in a further hearing in order to close some gaps in the documentation presented by TauroPharm as regards the publication of the prior art. In October 2016, TauroPharm submitted a further writ to the EPO requesting a date for the hearing and bringing forward further arguments, in particular in view of the recent decision of the German PTO on the invalidity of the utility model. The EPO has scheduled a further oral hearing for November 22-23, 2017. While the Company continues to believe that the referenced publication and instructions for use do not, in fact, constitute prior art and that the Prosl European Patent will be found to be valid by the EPO, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in this matter.

The German PTO held a hearing in the validity proceedings relating to the Utility Model on June 29, 2016, at which the panel affirmed its preliminary finding that the Utility Model was invalid based upon prior publication of a reference to the benefits that may be associated with adding heparin to a taurolidine based solution. The decision has only a declaratory effect, as the Utility Model had expired in November 2015. Furthermore, it has no bearing on the ongoing consideration by the EPO of the validity and possible infringement of the Prosl European Patent. The Company filed an appeal against the ruling on September 7, 2016.

On January 16, 2015, the Company filed a complaint against TauroPharm GmbH and its managing directors in the District Court of Cologne, Germany. In the complaint, the Company alleges violation of the German Unfair Competition Act by TauroPharm for the unauthorized use of its proprietary information obtained in confidence by TauroPharm. The Company alleges that TauroPharm is improperly and unfairly using its proprietary information relating to the composition and manufacture of Neutrolin, in the manufacture and sale of TauroPharm’s products TauroLock TM , TauroLock-HEP100 and TauroLock-HEP500. The Company seeks a cease and desist order against TauroPharm from continuing to manufacture and sell any product containing taurolidine (the active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) of Neutrolin) and citric acid in addition to possible other components, damages for any sales in the past and the removal of all such products from the market. An initial hearing in the District Court of Cologne, Germany was held on November 19, 2015 to consider the Company’s claims. In this hearing, the presiding judge explained that the court needed more information with regard to several aspects of the case. As a consequence, the court issued an interim decision in the form of a court order outlining several issues of concern that relate primarily to the court's interest in clarifying the facts and reviewing any and all available documentation, in particular with regard to the question which specific know-how was provided to TauroPharm by whom and when. The Company's legal team has prepared the requested reply and produced the respective documentation. TauroPharm has also filed another writ within the same deadline and both parties have filed further writs at the end of April setting out their respective argumentation in more detail. A further oral hearing in this matter was held on November 15, 2016. In this hearing, the court heard arguments from CorMedix and TauroPharm concerning the allegations of unfair competition. The court made no rulings from the bench, and indicated that it is prepared to further examine the underlying facts of the Company's allegations. On March 7, 2017, the court issued another interim decision in the form of a court order outlining again several issues relating to the argumentation of both sides in the proceedings. In particular the court requested the Company to further specify its requests and to further substantiate in even more detail which know know-how was provided by Biolink to TauroPharm by whom and when. The court also raised the question whether the know-how provided at the time to TauroPharm could still be considered to be secret know-how or may have become public in the meantime. The court granted both sides the opportunity to reply to this court order and provide additional facts and evidence until May 15, 2017. Both parties have submitted further writs in this matter and the court has now scheduled a further hearing on May 8, 2018. The Company intends to continue to pursue this matter, and to provide additional supplemental documentary and other evidence as may be necessary to support its claims.

Manufacturing

Navinta LLC, a U.S.-based API developer, provides API manufacturing (manufactured in India at an FDA-compliant facility) and a Drug Master File for CRMD003, pursuant to an original supply agreement dated December 7, 2009, as amended (the “Navinta Agreement”). The Navinta Agreement provided that Navinta would supply taurolidine (the API for CRMD003) to the Company on an exclusive worldwide basis in the field of the prevention and treatment of human infection and/or dialysis so long as the Company purchased a minimum of $2,250,000 of product on an annual basis for five years following the Company’s first commercial sale of a product incorporating taurolidine. The Company did not purchase the required amounts and as a result, lost its exclusive manufacturing rights. The Company was also required to make certain cash payments to Navinta upon the achievement of certain sales-based milestones which were based on a tiered approach and would not commence until the Company achieved a designated net sales threshold. The maximum aggregate amount of such payments, assuming achievement of all milestones, was $1,975,000 over five years. The Navinta Agreement expired on March 31, 2016, was not renewed and there are no further purchase obligations or milestone payments.

The Company has developed a program aimed at reducing the cost of goods of Neutrolin through a more efficient, custom synthesis of the active ingredient taurolidine. As part of that program, on April 8, 2015, the Company entered into a Preliminary Services Agreement with [RC] 2 Pharma Connect LLC (“RC2”), pursuant to which RC2 will coordinate certain manufacturing services related to taurolidine that the Company believes are necessary for the submission of its planned new drug application for Neutrolin to the FDA, as well as any foreign regulatory applications. The services under the preliminary service agreement were completed during the first quarter of 2017 except for the stability studies that are expected to be completed in December 2020. These stability studies will not impact the anticipated timing of approval and launch of Neutrolin in the U.S. The total cost for RC2’s services under the preliminary services agreement is $1.8 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized research and development expense of $13,500 and $252,000, respectively, and $35,000 and $71,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

The Company also has several service agreements with RC2 for the manufacture of clinical supplies to support its ongoing and planned Phase 3 clinical trials for an aggregate amount of $8.6 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized research and development expense of approximately $349,000 and $896,000, respectively, related to these agreements and approximately $355,000 and $743,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The Company may terminate these agreements upon 30 days written notice and is only obligated for project costs and reasonable project shut down costs provided through the date of termination.

Clinical and Regulatory

In December 2015, the Company signed a Master Service Agreement and Work Orders (the “Master Service Agreement”) with PPD Development, LP (“PPD”) to help the Company conduct its Phase 3 multicenter, double-blind, randomized active control study (the “First Phase 3 Clinical Trial”) to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of Neutrolin in preventing catheter-related bloodstream infections and blood clotting in subjects receiving hemodialysis therapy as treatment for end stage renal disease. In May 2017, the Company signed a contract modification with PPD to cover the extension of the estimated study timeline, incorporate several protocol amendments and take on several new tasks related to the enrollment sites. The total cost of the contract increased to $26.4 million from its original amount of $19.2 million. Given several recent changes to the study agreed with the FDA, an additional modification of the contract with PPD is being negotiated. The cost of this modification is not yet known. The Company currently anticipates that the cost for this trial, referred to as LOCK-IT-100, will exceed $30 million, and will likely enroll patients into 2018. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized $2,811,000 and $5,365,000 in research and development expense related to this agreement, respectively, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized approximately $1,103,000 and $2,003,000, respectively.

In-Licensing

In 2008, the Company entered into a License and Assignment Agreement (the “NDP License Agreement”) with NDP. Pursuant to the NDP License Agreement, NDP granted the Company exclusive, worldwide licenses for certain antimicrobial catheter lock solutions, processes for treating and inhibiting infections, a biocidal lock system and a taurolidine delivery apparatus, and the corresponding United States and foreign patents and applications (the “NDP Technology”). The Company acquired such licenses and patents through its assignment and assumption of NDP’s rights under certain separate license agreements by and between NDP and Dr. Hans-Dietrich Polaschegg, Dr. Klaus Sodemann and Dr. Johannes Reinmueller. As consideration in part for the rights to the NDP Technology, the Company paid NDP an initial licensing fee of $325,000 and granted NDP a 5% equity interest in the Company, consisting at the time of 39,980 shares of the Company’s common stock.

In addition, the Company is required to make payments to NDP upon the achievement of certain regulatory and sales-based milestones. Certain of the milestone payments are to be made in the form of shares of common stock currently held in escrow for NDP, and other milestone payments are to be paid in cash. The maximum aggregate number of shares issuable upon achievement of milestones is 145,543 shares. During the year ended December 31, 2014, a certain milestone was achieved resulting in the release of 36,386 shares held in escrow. The number of shares held in escrow as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 is 109,157 shares of common stock. The maximum aggregate amount of cash payments upon achievement of milestones is $3,000,000 with $2,500,000 remaining unearned at June 30, 2017. Events that trigger milestone payments include but are not limited to the reaching of various stages of regulatory approval and upon achieving certain worldwide net sales amounts. There were no milestones achieved during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

The NDP License Agreement may be terminated by the Company on a country-by-country basis upon 60 days prior written notice. If the NDP License Agreement is terminated by either party, the Company’s rights to the NDP Technology will revert back to NDP.

Overview

CorMedix Inc. and Subsidiary (referred to herein as “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company”), is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic products for the prevention and treatment of infectious and inflammatory diseases .

Our primary focus is to develop our lead product candidate, Neutrolin ® (also known as CRMD003), for potential commercialization in the U.S. and other key markets. We have in-licensed the worldwide rights to develop and commercialize Neutrolin, which is a novel anti-infective solution (a formulation of taurolidine, citrate and heparin 1000 u/ml) under development in the U.S. for the reduction and prevention of catheter-related infections and thrombosis in patients requiring central venous catheters in clinical settings such as dialysis, critical/intensive care, and oncology. Infection and thrombosis represent key complications among critical care/ intensive care and cancer patients with central venous catheters. These complications can lead to treatment delays and increased costs to the healthcare system when they occur due to hospitalizations, need for IV antibiotic treatment, long-term anticoagulation therapy, removal/replacement of the central venous catheter, related treatment costs and increased mortality. We believe Neutrolin has the potential to address a significant unmet medical need and represents a potential large market opportunity.

We initiated one Phase 3 clinical trial in hemodialysis patients with a central venous catheter (“LOCK-IT-100”) in December 2015. Two pivotal trials to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of Neutrolin are required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to secure marketing approval in the United States. Based on our experience in the LOCK-IT-100 trial, we are reassessing the structure of our planned second Phase 3 clinical trial to seek efficiencies and improvements in the design and execution. This reassessment is expected to be completed in the next several months.

In April 2017, a safety review by an independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board, or DSMB was completed. The DSMB unanimously concluded that it is safe to continue the LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial as designed based on its evaluation of data from the first 279 patients randomized on trial.

On August 2, 2017, we announced that the FDA had agreed to key changes to the LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial. We believe that the changes endorsed by the FDA facilitate our ability to complete the ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial in hemodialysis patients with central venous catheters, as previously announced, by year-end 2018. We sought guidance from the FDA to address, in part, the apparent overall lower rate of catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSI) events as announced in April 2017. Changes made to the protocol were 1) the utilization of a Clinical Adjudication Committee (CAC) to assess suspected CRBSIs; 2) the use of the CAC to critically and independently assess suspected CRBSIs in a blinded fashion based on a single positive blood culture and supporting documentation, rather than two positive blood cultures as currently required; 3) the ability to capture cases occurring outside of dialysis centers to facilitate more complete capture of CRBSI events in the study, particularly when patients present with CRBSI events outside of the dialysis center setting (emergency rooms or urgent care centers); and 4) a revision of the design of the study to detect a treatment effect of 55% or greater when comparing the Neutrolin and heparin control arms. The FDA agreed that cases adjudicated by the CAC to be CRBSI events and the per protocol definition of CRBSI events will be included in the primary analysis of the primary efficacy endpoint of the LOCK-IT-100 study. The amended study assumptions including a reduction in statistical power have resulted in a reduction in the total number of CRBSI events required from 161 events to 56 events to complete the study.

We believe that these changes will allow the identification of more infections, enabling a single interim analysis, which is anticipated to occur in the fourth quarter of 2017 based on 28 CRBSI events. Should the interim analysis show sufficient efficacy it may be possible to conclude the study earlier than projected. Further, based on our experience in the LOCK-IT-100 trial, we are reassessing the structure of our planned second Phase 3 clinical trial to seek efficiencies and improvements in its design and execution. This reassessment is expected to be completed in the next several months.

In July 2013, we received CE Mark approval for Neutrolin. As a result, in December 2013, we commercially launched Neutrolin in Germany for the prevention of catheter-related bloodstream infections and maintenance of catheter patency in hemodialysis patients using a tunneled, cuffed central venous catheter for vascular access. To date, Neutrolin is registered and may be sold in certain European Union and Middle Eastern countries for such treatment. I n April 2017, we entered into a commercial collaboration with Hemotech SAS covering France and French overseas territories.

We are evaluating opportunities for the possible expansion of taurolidine as a platform compound for use in certain medical devices. Patent applications have been filed in wound closure, surgical meshes, wound management, and osteoarthritis, including visco-supplementation. Based on initial feasibility work, we are advancing preclinical studies for three product candidates: surgical meshes, suture materials, and hydrogels. There exists a need to control and protect against surgical site infections upon wound closure and we believe taurolidine may provide benefits not currently available in marketed antimicrobial medical devices. It may also provide a significant advantage in devices for burn victims and use in less sterile environments. We expect to develop and pursue FDA clearance for these potential products by the 510(k) pathway and will seek to establish development/commercial partnerships as these programs advance. We are also involved in a pre-clinical research collaboration for the use of taurolidine as a possible combination treatment for rare orphan pediatric tumors.

Since our inception, we have not generated sufficient revenue from product sales to be profitable. Our operations to date have been primarily limited to conducting clinical trials for our product candidates, establishing manufacturing for our product candidates, licensing product candidates, performing business and financial planning, performing research and development, seeking regulatory approval for our products, initial commercialization activities for Neutrolin in the European Union and other foreign markets, and maintaining and improving our patent portfolio. We have funded our operations primarily through debt and equity financings. We have generated significant losses to date, and we expect to use substantial amounts of cash for our operations as we continue to conduct our ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial in hemodialysis patients with catheters, commercialize Neutrolin in the European Union and other foreign markets, pursue business development activities, incur additional legal costs to defend our intellectual property, and seek FDA approval of Neutrolin in the U.S. As of June 30, 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $131.9 million. We are unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if ever.

Financial Operations Overview

Research and Development Expense

Research and development, or R&D, expense consists of: (i) internal costs associated with our development activities; (ii) payments we make to third party contract research organizations, contract manufacturers, investigative sites, and consultants; (iii) technology and intellectual property license costs; (iv) manufacturing development costs; (v) personnel related expenses, including salaries, stock–based compensation expense, benefits, travel and related costs for the personnel involved in drug development; (vi) activities relating to regulatory filings and the advancement of our product candidates through preclinical studies and clinical

trials; and (vii) facilities and other allocated expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for rent, facility maintenance, as well as laboratory and other supplies. All R&D is expensed as incurred.

Conducting a significant amount of development is central to our business model. Product candidates in later-stage clinical development generally have higher development costs than those in earlier stages of development, primarily due to the significantly increased size and duration of the clinical trials. We plan to increase our R&D expenses for the foreseeable future in order to complete development of Neutrolin in the U.S., especially the ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial and a planned second Phase 3 trial that is under reassessment to seek possible efficiencies and improvements in its design and execution.

The process of conducting pre-clinical studies and clinical trials necessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The probability of success for each product candidate and clinical trial may be affected by a variety of factors, including, among others, the quality of the product candidate’s early clinical data, investment in the program, competition, manufacturing capabilities and commercial viability. As a result of the uncertainties associated with clinical trial enrollments and the risks inherent in the development process, we are unable to determine the duration and completion costs of current or future clinical stages of our product candidates or when, or to what extent, we will generate revenues from the commercialization and sale of any of our product candidates.

Development timelines, probability of success and development costs vary widely. We are currently focused on clinical development in the U.S. and optimization of sales in foreign markets where Neutrolin is approved. We are seeking to develop Neutrolin in the U.S. In December 2015, we contracted with PPD Development, L.P. to help us conduct our multicenter, double-bind, randomized, active control Phase 3 clinical trial in hemodialysis patients with catheters to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of Neutrolin in preventing catheter-related bloodstream infections and blood clotting in subjects receiving hemodialysis therapy as treatment for end stage renal disease. In May 2017, we modified the contract to cover the costs associated with an extension of the estimated study timeline, incorporate several protocol amendments and take on several new tasks related to the enrollment sites. The total cost of the contract increased to $26.4 million from its original amount of $19.2 million, of which approximately $11.7 million has been recognized through June 30, 2017. Given several recent changes to the study agreed with the FDA, an additional modification of the contract with PPD is being negotiated. The cost of this modification is not yet known. We currently anticipate that the cost for this trial, referred to as LOCK-IT-100, will exceed $30 million, and enroll patients into 2018. We are still reassessing the structure of our planned second Phase 3 clinical trial and do not have a cost estimate at this time. We are seeking one or more strategic partners or other sources of capital to help complete the development of Neutrolin in the U.S.

We are pursuing additional opportunities to generate value based on taurolidine, the active component of Neutrolin. Based on initial feasibility work, we are advancing preclinical studies for three product candidates: surgical meshes, suture materials, and hydrogels. We expect to develop and pursue FDA clearance for these potential products by the 510(k) pathway and will seek to establish development/commercial partnerships as these programs advance.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expense includes costs related to commercial personnel, medical education professionals, marketing and advertising, salaries and other related costs, including stock-based compensation expense, for persons serving in our executive, sales, finance and accounting functions. Other SG&A expense includes facility-related costs not included in R&D expense, promotional expenses, costs associated with industry and trade shows, and professional fees for legal services and accounting services.

Foreign Currency Exchange Transaction Gain (Loss)

Foreign currency exchange transaction gain (loss) is the result of re-measuring transactions denominated in a currency other than our functional currency and is reported in the consolidated statement of operations as a separate line item within other income (expense). The intercompany loans outstanding are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future and the nature of the funding advanced is of a long-term investment nature. As such, unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).

Change in Fair Value of Derivative

As previously disclosed, we currently do not have sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock to cover the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued in the May 2017 public offering and therefore classified the fair value of the warrants in excess of the authorized shares as a derivative liability. The derivative liability is recorded at fair value at issuance date marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. The change in the fair value of derivative liability represents the difference between the fair value of the warrants recorded on issuance date and the fair value of warrants at the balance sheet date, with any decrease or increase in the estimated fair value being recorded in other income (expense).

Interest Income

Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists of interest incurred on financing of expenditures.

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $136,000 compared to $17,000 in the same period last year, an increase of $119,000. The increase was due to an increase in sales of Neutrolin in the European Union of $84,000 and the recognition of previously deferred revenue for products sold under a warranty and return provision of $35,000. For the same period last year, there were no products sold that were previously deferred as a result of the warranty and return provision. Most of our revenue in the European Union during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 was generated by the initial shipment to Hemotech as a result of our distribution agreement. This shipment has not yet been sold to the end users as of June 30, 2017, and our future shipments in the second half of 2017 may be lower depending upon the initial sales levels attained.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $176,000 as compared to $58,000 for the same period last year, an increase of $118,000. The increase was due to an increase in sales of Neutrolin in the European Union of $54,000 particularly in France under the distribution agreement with Hemotech and the recognition of deferred revenue for the products sold under a warranty and return provision of $64,000. For the same period last year, there were no products sold under a warranty and return provision.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $18,000 compared to $187,000 in the same period last year, a decrease of $169,000. The decrease reflected a $187,000 decrease in inventory reserve during the three months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to an increase of $166,000 inventory reserve for the same period last year, offset by an increase in cost of materials of approximately $149,000 primarily related to the higher sales (including the recognition of $20,000 associated with revenue recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2017 that had previously been deferred) and an increase in ongoing stability studies cost of $33,000.

Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $112,000 compared to $237,000 in the same period last year, a decrease of $125,000. The decrease reflected a $187,000 decrease in inventory reserve during the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to an increase of $166,000 inventory reserve for the same period last year, offset by a $163,000 increased cost of materials related to higher sales during the six months ended June 30, 2017 (including the recognition of $38,000 associated with revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2017 that had previously been deferred) and an increase in ongoing stability studies cost of $65,000.

Research and Development Expense . R&D expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $5,090,000 compared to $2,773,000 for the same period last year, an increase of $2,317,000. The increase was primarily attributable to a $2,150,000 increase in clinical trial expenses related to the ongoing LOCK-IT-100 trial in the U.S. Personnel expenses also increased by $361,000 due to the hiring of our chief medical officer, new staff supporting the LOCK-IT-100 trial, and the conversion of several consultants to employee status. Additionally, consulting fees had a net increase of $60,000 due to higher regulatory activities, offset by the conversion of certain consultants to employee status providing additional support for the Neutrolin development plan. These increases were partially offset by decreases in the cost of new studies related to antimicrobial sutures, nanofiber webs, wound management and osteoarthritis and visco-supplementation of $92,000; costs related to manufacturing process development activities of $69,000; pharmacoeconomics and pricing and market research studies conducted of $51,000; and non-cash stock based compensation of $45,000.

R&D expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $10,014,000, compared to $4,863,000 for the same period last year, an increase of $5,151,000. The increase was primarily attributable to a $4,265,000 increase in expenses related to the ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial in the U.S. Personnel expenses also increased by $712,000 due to the hiring of our chief medical officer, new staff supporting the LOCK-IT-100 trial, and the conversion of several consultants to employee status. Additionally, costs related to manufacturing process development activities increased by $258,000; and consulting fees had a net increase of $80,000, due to increased regulatory activities, offset by the conversion of certain consultants to employee status. These increases were partially offset by decreases in pharmacoeconomics and pricing and market research studies conducted of $92,000; non-cash stock-based compensation of $64,000; and cost of new studies related to antimicrobial sutures, nanofiber webs, wound management and osteoarthritis and visco-supplementation of $11,000.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense . SG&A expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $2,051,000 compared to $1,969,000 for the same period last year, an increase of $82,000. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in non-cash charge for stock-based compensation expense of $157,000; higher personnel expenses of $156,000, due to the hiring of new employees, including our chief financial officer, and the conversion of consultants to employee status; and a $139,000 increase in expenses for marketing research studies. These increases, among others of lesser significance, were substantially offset by decreases in consulting fees of $207,000, mainly due to the termination of our interim chief financial officer’s consulting contract, and the conversion of other consultants to employee status; a reduction in legal fees attributable to the ongoing intellectual property litigation and the dismissed securities litigation of $131,000; and a decrease in accounting fees of $32,000.

SG&A expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $4,692,000 compared to $4,132,000 for the same period last year, an increase of $560,000. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in personnel expenses of $495,000, due to the hiring of new employees, including our chief financial officer, and the conversion of certain consultants to employee status; an increase in marketing research studies of $317,000; and an increase in non-cash charge for stock-based compensation expense of $185,000. These increases, among others of lesser significance, were partially offset by a $362,000 decrease in legal fees attributable to the ongoing intellectual property litigation and the dismissed securities litigation; a decrease in selling costs related to commercialization of Neutrolin in the EU of $63,000; and a decrease in board fees of $16,000, due to fewer board members for the period this year as compared to the same period last year.

Interest Income . Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was the same in the amount of $29,000.

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $52,000 as compared to $61,000 for the same period last year, a decrease of $9,000. The decrease was attributable to lower interest-bearing cash balance during the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability. The change in the value of derivative liability of $1,853,000 is the difference between the fair value of the warrants issued with insufficient authorized shares at issuance date (May 3, 2017) of $3,733,000 and the estimated fair value of the warrants at June 30, 2017 of $1,880,000.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) . Unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans and the translation of the foreign affiliate financial statements to U.S. dollars and unrealized movements related to short-term investment are recorded in other comprehensive income totaling an income of $6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to a $3,000 loss for the same period last year.

Unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans and the translation of the foreign affiliate financial statements to U.S. dollars and unrealized movements related to short-term investment are recorded in other comprehensive income totaling an income of $15,000 and $28,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

As a result of our cost of sales, R&D and SG&A expenditures and the lack of substantial product sales revenue, we have not been profitable and have generated operating losses since we were incorporated in July 2006. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we received; net proceeds of $12,798,000 from the public offering resulting from the issuance of an aggregate of 18,619,301 and 29,046,110 shares of common stock and warrants, respectively; $347,000 from the issuance of 198,630 shares of common stock under our at-the-market-issuance sales agreement; and $6,800 from the exercise of 10,000 stock options.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $14,510,000 as compared to $9,218,000 for the same period in 2016, an increase in net cash used of $5,292,000. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in net loss of $3,625,000 driven by increased research and development expenses. The net loss of $12,743,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was lower than cash used in operating activities by $1,767,000. The difference is primarily attributable to non-cash stock-based compensation of $850,000, increases in accounts payable of $118,000 and a decrease in inventory of $41,000, partially offset by a non-cash change in fair value of derivative liability of $1,853,000, increases in prepaid expenses of $400,000, trade receivables of $133,000 and a decreases in accrued expenses of $212,000 and inventory reserve of $187,000.

Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities

Cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $1,221,000 as compared to $7,000,000 for the same period in 2016. Net cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 is attributable to the proceeds from the sale of short-term investments of $10,504,000, partially offset by the purchase of short-term investments of $9,279,000. In comparison to the same period in 2016, net cash used in investing activities was attributable to the proceeds from the sale of short-term investments.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $13,152,000 as compared to $2,421,000 for the same period in 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we generated net proceeds of $12,798,000 from the public offering of our common stock and warrants, $347,000 from the sale of our common stock in our current at-the-market program, and $6,800 from the exercise of stock options. In comparison to the same period in 2016, we generated $2,010,000 from the sale of our common stock in the current at-the-market program, and $411,000 from the exercise of stock options.

Funding Requirements and Liquidity

Our total cash on hand and short-term investments as of June 30, 2017 was $18.8 million, excluding restricted cash of $0.2 million, compared with $20.2 million at December 31, 2016. In addition, we have approximately $3.7 million available under our current at-the-market program at June 30, 2017 . At June 30, 2017, we also had approximately $46.0 million available under our current shelf registration for the issuance of equity, debt or equity-linked securities unrelated to the current ATM program. The sale of any equity securities under this portion of the shelf registration statement is subject to participation rights held by Manchester Securities Corp. (“Manchester”) pursuant to which Manchester must either be offered participation in such equity financing or we must obtain a waiver from Manchester.

Because our business has not currently generated positive operating cash flow, we will need to raise additional capital in order to continue to fund our research and development activities and our business development activities, as well as to fund operations generally, even after accounting for our May 2017 financing. Our continued operations and specifically the completion of our ongoing LOCK-IT-100clinical trial for Neutrolin in the U.S., which was initiated in December 2015, will depend on our ability to raise sufficient additional funds through various potential sources, such as equity, debt financings, and/or strategic relationships. A second Phase 3 clinical trial is required for approval, for which additional funds over and above the funds needed for the ongoing hemodialysis Phase 3 clinical trial will be required. We can provide no assurances that financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, that may enable us to complete our Phase 3 clinical trial program.

We expect to continue to fund operations from cash on hand and through capital raising sources as previously described, which may be dilutive to existing stockholders, through revenues from the licensing of our products, or through strategic alliances. We may utilize our current ATM program, if conditions allow, to support our ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial for Neutrolin in the U.S. In August 2016, we entered into a sales agreement with FBR whereby we can sell up to $40 million of shares of our common stock under a pending ATM program, but only if we obtain a waiver from Manchester of its participation rights which expire in September 2017 and the pending registration statement is declared effective, which conditions might not be met.

Additionally, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities through one or more discrete transactions, or enter into a strategic alliance arrangement, but can provide no assurances that any such financing or strategic alliance arrangement will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Moreover, the incurrence of indebtedness in connection with a debt financing would result in increased fixed obligations and could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. Raising additional funds through strategic alliance arrangements with third parties may require significant time to complete and could force us to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates, or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us or our stockholders. Our actual cash requirements may vary materially from those now planned due to a number of factors, including any change in the focus and direction of our research and development programs, any acquisition or pursuit of development of new product candidates, competitive and technical advances, the costs of commercializing any of our product candidates, and costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and any other intellectual property rights.

While we expect to grow product sales, we do not anticipate that we will generate significant product revenues in the foreseeable future. In the absence of such revenue, we are likely to continue generating operating cash flow deficits. We expect to incur increases in our cash used in operations as we continue our ongoing and planned Phase 3 clinical trials, pursue business development activities, incur additional legal costs to defend our intellectual property and seek FDA approval of Neutrolin in the U.S.

Based on our cash resources at June 30, 2017 and the expected cost of the ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial in the U.S., we believe that our existing cash and short-term investments will fund our operations into the first quarter of 2018. If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed, we may be forced to slow or discontinue our ongoing LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial, and will be unable to commence the planned second Phase 3 clinical trial. We could also be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our research and development programs. Each of these alternatives would likely have a material adverse effect on our business.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our 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, or GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments, including those described below. We base our estimates on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the 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 and experiences may differ materially from these estimates.

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our financial statements included with this report, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results and affect the more significant judgments and estimates that we use in the preparation of our financial statements.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock options according to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, share-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period on a straight-line basis.

We account for stock options granted to non-employees on a fair value basis using the Black-Scholes option pricing model in accordance with ASC 718 and ASC No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”. For the purpose of valuing options and warrants granted to our directors, officers, employees and consultants, we use the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The non-cash charge to operations for non-employee options with time-based vesting provisions is based on the fair value of the options re-measured each reporting period and amortized to expense over the related vesting period, and the non-cash charge to operations for non-employee options with performance-based vesting provisions is recorded when the achievement of the performance condition is probable.

Valuations incorporate several variables, including expected term, expected volatility, expected dividend yield and a risk-free interest rate. We estimate the expected term of the options granted based on anticipated exercises in future periods. The expected stock price volatility for our stock options is calculated based on the historical volatility since the initial public offering of our common stock in March 2010. The expected dividend yield reflects our current and expected future policy for dividends on our common stock. To determine the risk-free interest rate, we utilize the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant with a term consistent with the expected term of our awards.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB 101”), as amended by SAB No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB 104”) and FASB ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition” . In accordance with SAB 101 and SAB 104, we recognize revenue from product sales when the following four revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. For an upfront payment related to an exclusive distribution agreement, we record it as deferred revenue and recognize revenue on a straight-line basis over the contractual term of the agreement. We recognize revenue once the four revenue recognition criteria are met in accordance with the terms of our various distribution agreements.

In October 2015, we shipped product with less than 75% of its remaining shelf life to a customer and issued a guarantee that any product shipped with less than 75% of its shelf life remaining would be replaced by us if the customer was not able to sell the product before it expired. As a result of this warranty, we may have an additional performance obligation (i.e. accept returned product and deliver new product to the customer) if the customer is unable to sell the short-dated product. Due to limited sales experience with the customer, we were unable to estimate the amount of the warranty obligation that may be incurred as a result of this shipment. Therefore, we deferred the revenue and related cost of sales associated with the shipment of this product, presented net “deferred revenue” in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Inventory Valuation

We engage third parties to manufacture and package inventory held for sale and warehouse such goods until packaged for final distribution and sale. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventories are reviewed periodically to identify slow-moving or obsolete inventory based on sales activity, both projected and historical, as well as product shelf-life. In evaluating the recoverability of our inventories, we consider the probability that revenue will be obtained from the future sale of the related inventory and, if required, will write down inventory quantities in excess of expected requirements. Expired inventory is disposed of and the related costs are recognized as cost of product sales in our consolidated statements of operations.

We analyze our inventory levels to identify inventory that may expire prior to sale, inventory that has a cost basis in excess of its estimated realizable value, or inventory in excess of expected sales requirements. Although the manufacturing of our products is subject to strict quality controls, certain batches or units of product may no longer meet quality specifications or may expire, which would require adjustments to our inventory values.

In the future, reduced demand, quality issues or excess supply beyond those anticipated by management may result in an adjustment to inventory levels, which would be recorded as an increase to cost of product sales. The determination of whether or not inventory costs will be realizable requires estimates by our management. A critical input in this determination is future expected inventory requirements based on our internal sales forecasts which we then compare to the expiry dates of inventory on hand. To the extent that inventory is expected to expire prior to being sold, we will write down the value of inventory. If actual results differ from those estimates, additional inventory write-offs may be required.

Short-Term Investments

We determine the appropriate classification of marketable securities at the time of purchase and reevaluate such designation as of each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value. Fair values of our investments are determined using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Our marketable securities are highly liquid and consist of U.S. government agency securities, high-grade corporate obligations and commercial paper with maturities of more than 90 days but less than 12 months. Changes in fair value that are considered temporary are reported net of tax in other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts and interest and dividends earned are included in income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The cost of investments for purposes of computing realized and unrealized gains and losses is based on the specific identification method. Investments with maturities beyond one year, if any, are classified as short-term based on management’s intent to fund current operations with these securities or to make them available for current operations. For declines, if any, in the fair value of equity securities that are considered other-than-temporary, impairment losses are charged to other (income) expense, net. We consider available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of our investments, including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost and, for equity securities, our ability and intent to hold the investments.

Fair Value Measurements

We categorize our financial instruments into a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets recorded at fair value on our condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized as follows:

●

Level 1 inputs—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

●

Level 3 inputs —Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are supported by little or no market activity and are valued based on management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Recent Authoritative Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued new guidance related to how an entity should recognize revenue. The guidance specifies that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In addition, the guidance expands the required disclosures related to revenue and cash flows from contracts with customers. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is not permitted and retrospective application is required. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued a new standard that modifies certain aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The accounting standard update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance related to how an entity should lease assets and lease liabilities. The guidance specifies that an entity who is a lessee under lease agreements should recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for those leases classified as operating leases under previous FASB guidance. Accounting for leases by lessors is largely unchanged under the new guidance. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2019. Early adoption is permitted. In transition , lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued an update which clarifies two aspects of the new revenue guidance by providing guidance on how to identify performance obligations and providing implementation guidance surrounding licensing. The amendments in this update do not change the core principle of the new revenue guidance. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is not permitted and retrospective application is required. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. Early adoption is permitted beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows in order to reduce diversity in practice. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which clarifies how restricted cash is presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which clarifies the definition of a business in a business combination. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which clarifies the application of stock based accounting guidance when a change is made to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued new guidance which changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features and recharacterizes the indefinite deferral of certain provisions within the guidance for distinguishing liabilities from equity. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed only to provide reasonable assurance that information to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2017. Based on the foregoing evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings.

In February 2007, Geistlich Söhne AG für Chemische Industrie, Switzerland (“Geistlich”) brought an action against the European Sodemann Patent covering our Neutrolin product candidate, which is owned by ND Partners, LLC (“NDP”) and licensed to us pursuant to the License and Assignment Agreement between us and NDP. This action was brought at the Board of the European Patent Office (“EPO”) opposition division (the “Opposition Board”) based upon alleged lack of inventiveness in the use of citric acid and a pH value in the range of 4.5 to 6.5 with having the aim to provide an alternative lock solution through having improved anticoagulant characteristics compared to the lock solutions of the prior art. The Opposition Board rejected the opposition by Geistlich. In a letter dated September 30, 2013, we were notified that the opposition division of the EPO reopened the proceedings before the first instance and gave their preliminary non-binding opinion that the patent as amended during the appeal proceedings fulfills the requirements of clarity, novelty, and inventive step, and invited the parties to provide their comments and/or requests by February 10, 2014. We filed our response on February 3, 2014 to request that the patent be maintained as amended during the appeal proceedings. Geistlich did not file a further statement within the required timeline. On November 5, 2014, the Opposition Division at the EPO issued the interlocutory decision to maintain the patent on the basis of the claims as amended during the appeal proceedings. This decision became final as no further appeal was lodged by Geistlich.

On September 9, 2014, we filed in the District Court of Mannheim, Germany a patent infringement action against TauroPharm GmbH and Tauro-Implant GmbH as well as their respective CEOs (the “Defendants”) claiming infringement of our European Patent EP 1 814 562 B1, which was granted by the EPO on January 8, 2014 (the “Prosl European Patent”). The Prosl European Patent covers a low dose heparin catheter lock solution for maintaining patency and preventing infection in a hemodialysis catheter. In this action, we claim that the Defendants infringe on the Prosl European Patent by manufacturing and distributing catheter locking solutions to the extent they are covered by the claims of the Prosl European Patent. We believe that our patent is sound, and are seeking injunctive relief and raising claims for information, rendering of accounts, calling back, destruction and damages. Separately, TauroPharm has filed an opposition with the EPO against the Prosl European Patent alleging that it lacks novelty and inventive step. We cannot predict what other defenses the Defendants may raise, or the ultimate outcome of either of these related matters.

In the same complaint against the same Defendants, we also alleged an infringement (requesting the same remedies) of NDP’s utility model DE 20 2005 022 124 U1 (the “Utility Model”), which we believe is fundamentally identical to the Prosl European Patent in its main aspects and claims. The Court separated the two proceedings and the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model claims are now being tried separately. TauroPharm has filed a cancellation action against the Utility Model before the German Patent and Trademark Office (the “German PTO”) based on the similar arguments as those in the opposition against the Prosl European Patent.

On March 27, 2015, the District Court held a hearing to evaluate whether the Utility Model has been infringed by TauroPharm in connection with the manufacture, sale and distribution of its TauroLock-HEP100TM and TauroLock-HEP500TM products. A hearing before the same court was held on January 30, 2015 on the separate, but related, question of infringement of the Prosl European Patent by TauroPharm.

The Court issued its decisions on May 8, 2015, staying both proceedings. In its decisions, the Court found that the commercialization by TauroPharm in Germany of its TauroLock catheter lock solutions Hep100 and Hep500 infringes both the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model and further that there is no prior use right that would allow TauroPharm to continue to make, use or sell its product in Germany. However, the Court declined to issue an injunction in favor of us that would preclude the continued commercialization by TauroPharm based upon its finding that there is a sufficient likelihood that the EPO, in the case of the Prosl European Patent, or the German PTO, in the case of the Utility Model, may find that such patent or utility model is invalid. Specifically, the Court noted the possible publication of certain instructions for product use that may be deemed to constitute prior art. As such, the District Court determined that it will defer any consideration of the request by us for injunctive and other relief until such time as the EPO or the German PTO made a final decision on the underlying validity of the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model.

The opposition proceeding against the Prosl European Patent before the EPO is ongoing. In its preliminary consideration of the matter, the EPO (and the German PTO) regarded the patent as not inventive or novel due to publication of prior art. Oral proceedings before the Opposition Division at the EPO were held on November 25, 2015, at which the three judge patent examiner panel considered arguments related to the validity of the Prosl European Patent. The hearing was adjourned due to the fact that the panel was of the view that Claus Herdeis, one of the managing directors of TauroPharm, has to be heard as a witness in a further hearing in order to close some gaps in the documentation presented by TauroPharm as regards the publication of prior art. In October 2016, TauroPharm submitted a further writ to the EPO requesting a date for the hearing and bringing forward further arguments, in particular in view of the recent decision of the German PTO on the invalidity of the utility model. The EPO has scheduled a further oral hearing for November 22-23, 2017. While we continue to believe that the referenced publication and instructions for use do not, in fact, constitute prior art and that the Prosl European Patent will be found to be valid by the EPO, there can be no assurance that we will prevail in this matter.

The German PTO held a hearing in the validity proceedings relating to the Utility Model on June 29, 2016, at which the panel affirmed its preliminary finding that the Utility Model was invalid based upon prior publication of a reference to the benefits that may be associated with adding heparin to a taurolidine based solution. The decision has only a declaratory effect, as the Utility Model had expired in November 2015. Furthermore, it has no bearing on the ongoing consideration by the EPO of the validity and possible infringement of the Prosl European Patent. We filed an appeal against the ruling on September 7, 2016.

On January 16, 2015, we filed a complaint against TauroPharm GmbH and its managing directors in the District Court of Cologne, Germany. In the complaint, we allege violation of the German Unfair Competition Act by TauroPharm for the unauthorized use of its proprietary information obtained in confidence by TauroPharm. We allege that TauroPharm is improperly and unfairly using its proprietary information relating to the composition and manufacture of Neutrolin, in the manufacture and sale of TauroPharm’s products TauroLockTM, TauroLock-HEP100 and TauroLock-HEP500. We seek a cease and desist order against TauroPharm from continuing to manufacture and sell any product containing taurolidine (the active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) of Neutrolin) and citric acid in addition to possible other components, damages for any sales in the past and the removal of all such products from the market. An initial hearing in the District Court of Cologne, Germany was held on November 19, 2015 to consider our claims. The judge made no decision on the merits of our complaint. On January 14, 2016, the court issued an interim decision in the form of a court order outlining several issues of concern that relate primarily to court's interest in clarifying the facts and reviewing any and all available documentation, in particular with regard to the question which specific know-how was provided to TauroPharm by whom and when. We have prepared the requested reply and produced the respective documentation. TauroPharm has also filed another writ within the same deadline and both parties have filed further writs at the end of April setting out their respective argumentation in more detail. A further oral hearing in this matter was held on November 15, 2016. In this hearing, the court heard arguments from CorMedix and TauroPharm concerning the allegations of unfair competition. The court made no rulings from the bench, and indicated that it is prepared to further examine the underlying facts of our allegations. On March 7, 2017, the court issued another interim decision in the form of a court order outlining again several issues relating to the argumentation of both sides in the proceedings. In particular the court requested us to further specify our requests and to further substantiate in even more detail which know know-how was provided by Biolink to TauroPharm by whom and when. The court also raised the question whether the know-how provided at the time to TauroPharm could still be considered to be secret know-how or may have become public in the meantime. The court granted both sides the opportunity to reply to this court order and provide additional facts and evidence until May 15, 2017. Both parties have submitted further writs in this matter and the court has now scheduled a further hearing for 8 May 2018. The Company intends to continue to pursue this matter, and to provide additional supplemental documentary and other evidence as may be necessary to support its claims.
