Description of Business
Evofem is a San Diego-based commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to commercializing innovative products to address unmet needs in women’s sexual and reproductive health.
The Company’s first commercial product, PHEXX®, was approved by the FDA on May 22, 2020, for the prevention of pregnancy and launched in the U.S. in September 2020. PHEXX is the first and only non-hormonal prescription contraceptive vaginal gel. Women use it when they have sex, applying PHEXX 0-60 minutes prior to intercourse. Because PHEXX is hormone-free and non-systemic, it is not associated with side effects of hormonal contraceptive methods, which include depression, weight gain, headaches, loss of libido, mood swings and irritability. Taking hormones may not be right for some women, especially those with certain medical conditions including clotting disorders, hormone-sensitive cancers, diabetes, or a BMI over 30, as well as women who are breast feeding, and / or who smoke. Per the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), based on data from the 2022-2023 National Survey of Family Growth, approximately 15.9 million women1 in the U.S. do not want to get pregnant and will not use a hormonal contraceptive.
The Company acquired global rights to SOLOSEC® on July 14, 2024 and relaunched the brand in November 2024. SOLOSEC is an FDA-approved single-dose oral antimicrobial agent that provides a complete course of therapy for the treatment of two common sexual health infections – bacterial vaginosis (BV) and trichomoniasis. This acquisition aligns with and advances the Company’s mission to commercialize innovative and differentiated products for women’s sexual and reproductive health.
Outside the U.S., the Company’s strategy is to commercialize its products in global markets through commercial partnerships and/or license agreements. We licensed commercial rights to PHEXX and SOLOSEC in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) to Pharma 1 Drug Store, LLC (Pharma 1), an emerging Emirati health care company, in July 2024 and May 2025, respectively. Pharma 1 filed for regulatory approval of PHEXX in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in June 2025 and of SOLOSEC in the UAE in September 2025. The Emirates Drug Establishment (EDE) issued favorable pricing certificates — a preliminary administrative step toward regulatory approval in the UAE — for PHEXX in November 2025.
In April 2026, the Company entered into a Distributorship Agreement with Clovis Davis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for distribution of SOLOSEC in sub-Saharan Africa.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The Company prepared the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (GAAP) in the United States for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) related to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.
The Company’s financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis, which include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP for annual audited consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2026 (the 2025 Audited Financial Statements).

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and statements of convertible and redeemable preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit for the periods presented. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 was derived from the 2025 Audited Financial Statements.
Reverse Stock Split
On November 26, 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at a ratio of between 1-for-500 and 1-for-1,500. The Company’s board of directors has not effectuated the reverse stock split as of the date of filing of this Quarterly Report.
Risks, Uncertainties and Going Concern
Any disruptions in the commercialization of PHEXX or SOLOSEC and/or their supply chains could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities, in the normal course of business, and does not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company’s principal operations are related to the commercialization of PHEXX and, since July 2024, SOLOSEC. Additional activities have included raising capital, identifying alternative manufacturing to lower PHEXX cost of goods sold (COGS), re-establishing the manufacturing / supply chain for SOLOSEC, seeking ex-U.S. licensing partners to add non-dilutive capital to the balance sheet and geographically diversify its revenue streams, seeking product in-licensing/acquisition opportunities to expand and diversify its U.S. revenue streams, and establishing and maintaining a corporate infrastructure to support commercial products. The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception, excluding non-recurring accounts payable and accrued expenses settlements, debt extinguishments, and changes in accounting estimates in certain prior periods. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had a working capital deficit of $72.7 million and an accumulated deficit of $902.9 million.
On January 6, 2025, the Company received a written notice from the OTC Markets notifying the Company that, because the closing bid price for the Company’s Common Stock was below $ per share for 30 consecutive calendar days, the Company was not compliant with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the OTCQB, as set forth in the OTCQB listing standards, section 2.3 (the Minimum Bid Price Requirement). In accordance with OTCQB Listing Standards, Section 4.1, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement the Company’s closing bid price was required to be equal to or greater than $ for ten consecutive trading days during the 90-day compliance period which ended April 6, 2025. On April 22, 2025, the Company received a written notice from the OTC Markets that it did not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the specified period, and as such, its Common Stock was removed from OTCQB and began trading on the OTC Pink Current (OTCPK) at market open on April 23, 2025.
The Company’s Common Stock was moved to and began trading on the Over-the-Counter Integrated Disclosure (OTCID), the new basic reporting market tier launched by the OTC Markets Group, at market open on July 1, 2025.
Management’s plans to meet its cash flow needs in the next 12 months include generating recurring product revenue from PHEXX and SOLOSEC, earning milestone payments by achieving certain regulatory milestones under the License and Supply Agreement with Pharma 1 for SOLOSEC, generating product revenue from the sale of PHEXX and SOLOSEC to Pharma 1 and SOLOSEC to Clovis Davis for approved countries in the respective licensed Territories, restructuring its current payables, and obtaining additional funding through non-dilutive or dilutive financings, collaborations or partnerships with other companies, including license agreements for PHEXX and/or SOLOSEC in the U.S. or foreign markets, or through other potential business combinations.
The Company anticipates it will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future. According to management estimates, liquidity resources were not sufficient to maintain the Company’s cash flow needs for the twelve months from the date of issuance of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
If the Company is not able to obtain the required funding through a significant increase in revenue, license agreements for PHEXX and/or SOLOSEC, equity or debt financings, or other means, or is unable to obtain funding on terms favorable to the Company, or if there is another event of default affecting the notes payable, there will be a material adverse effect on commercialization operations and the Company’s ability to execute its strategic development plan for future growth. If the Company cannot successfully raise additional capital and implement its strategic development plan, the Company may be forced to make further reductions in spending, including spending in connection with its commercialization activities, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible at a potentially lower amount than as recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements, suspend or curtail planned operations, or cease operations entirely. Any of these could materially and adversely affect the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and business prospects, and the Company would not be able to continue as a going concern. The Company has concluded that these circumstances and the uncertainties associated with the Company’s ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing on terms that are favorable to the Company, or at all, and otherwise succeed in its future operations raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
