(together with its subsidiary, “Aquestive” or “the Company”) is a pharmaceutical company advancing medicines to solve patients' problems with current standards of care and provide transformative products to improve their lives. The Company is developing pharmaceutical products that deliver complex molecules through alternative administrations to invasive and inconvenient standard of care therapies. The Company has five licensed commercialized products which are marketed by its licensees in the U.S. and around the world. The Company is the exclusive manufacturer of these licensed products. The Company also collaborates with pharmaceutical companies to bring new molecules to market using proprietary, best-in-class technologies, like PharmFilm®, and has proven drug development and commercialization capabilities. The Company is advancing a product pipeline for the treatment of severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. The Company has also developed a product pipeline focused on treating diseases of the central nervous system, or CNS. The Company's production facilities are located in Portage, Indiana, and its corporate headquarters and primary research laboratory facilities are based in Warren, New Jersey. Equity Transactions On September 11, 2019, the Company established an “At-The-Market” (ATM) facility pursuant to which the Company may offer up to $25,000 worth of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). On November 20, 2020, the Company began utilizing the ATM facility. On March 26, 2021, the Company filed a prospectus supplement to offer up to an additional $50,000 worth of shares of Common Stock under the ATM. The 2019 Registration Statement expired under its terms on September 17, 2022. On September 7, 2022, the Company filed a prospectus supplement to register the offer and sale of up to $35,000 worth of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Amended Equity Distribution Agreement under a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-254775), or the 2021 Registration Statement, that was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 5, 2021. The Company discontinued using the 2021 Prospectus upon the filing of the prospectus supplement on September 7, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold 2,860,538 shares which provided net proceeds of approximately $3,907 after deducting commissions and other transaction costs of $289. This ATM facility has approximately $33,416 available at December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company sold 6,550,486 shares which provided net proceeds of approximately $29,778 after deducting commissions and other transaction costs of $1,291. On April 12, 2022, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the "Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement") with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC ("Lincoln Park"), which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Lincoln Park up to $40,000 worth of shares of Common Stock from time to time over the 36-month term of the Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement. The Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement contains an ownership limitation such that the Company will not issue, and Lincoln Park will not purchase, shares of Common Stock if it would result in Lincoln Park's beneficial ownership of our outstanding Common Stock exceeding 9.99%. Lincoln Park has covenanted under the Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement not to cause or engage in any manner whatsoever, any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of the Company's Common Stock. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold 1,600,000 shares in addition to issuing 236,491 commitment shares, which provided gross proceeds of approximately $1,987 in connection with the Lincoln Park Purchase Agreement. On June 6, 2022, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (the "Securities Purchase Agreements") with certain purchasers. The Securities Purchase Agreements provided for the sale and issuance by the Company of an aggregate of: (i) 4,850,000 shares of Common Stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock and (iii) Common Stock warrants to purchase up to 8,850,000 shares of Common Stock. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $7,796, after deducting placement agent fees and expenses and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes. On June 8, 2022, the Company filed a prospectus supplement in connection with this equity offering. Refer to Note 13, Warrants for further details. Nasdaq Stock Market Notification On December 30, 2022, the Company received a notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), as the minimum bid price of the Company’s Common Stock has been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The notification of noncompliance has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global Market. The Company has 180 calendar days, or until June 28, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. To regain compliance, the minimum bid price of the Company’s Common Stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this 180-calendar day grace period. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by June 28, 2023, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-calendar day compliance period if it elects to transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market to take advantage of the additional compliance period offered on that market. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the end of the compliance period (or the second compliance period, if applicable), the Company’s Common Stock will become subject to delisting. In the event that the Company receives notice that its Common Stock is being delisted, the Nasdaq listing rules permit the Company to appeal a delisting determination by the Staff to a hearings panel. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its Common Stock and may, if appropriate, consider available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, including initiating a reverse stock split. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq Listing Rules.
