Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

(amounts are as indicated)

1.

Formation and Business of the Company

Tivic Health Systems, Inc. (the "Company"), was incorporated in the state of California on September 22, 2016, for the purpose of developing and commercializing bioelectronic medicine to provide drug-free treatment alternatives for various diseases directly to consumers. The Company is headquartered in Hayward, California. The Company's first commercial product, ClearUP, is an FDA-approved medical device for the treatment of sinus inflammation and congestion, which the Company currently sells directly to consumers on various e-commerce platforms and through retail channels.

On June 7, 2021, the Company reincorporated as a Delaware corporation, which included establishment of $0.0001 par value for the Company's convertiblepreferred stock and common stock. The financial statements have been retroactively adjusted as if the change in corporation status occurred on January 1, 2020.

The Company has experienced losses and negative cash flows from operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred a net loss of $3.0 million and $5.3 million, respectively. At June 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $24.8 million. Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2022 were $9.0 million. Management expects to incur substantial additional operating losses for at least the next two years to expand its ClearUP markets, continue its research and development programs and potentially launch new commercial products. The Company believes it has adequate cash and financial resources to operate for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.

Our future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including, without limitation, progress with developing, manufacturing and marketing our technologies, the time and costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining and enforcing patent claims and other proprietary rights, our ability to establish collaborative arrangements, marketing activities and competing technological and market developments, including regulatory changes and overall economic conditions in our target markets. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability requires us to successfully market and secure purchase orders for our products and services from customers currently identified in our sales pipeline as well as new customers. We also will be required to efficiently manufacture and deliver equipment on those purchase orders. These activities, including our planned research and development efforts, will require significant uses of working capital. There can be no assurance that we will generate revenue and cash as expected in our current business plan. We may seek additional funds through equity or debt offerings and/or borrowings under notes payable, lines of credit or other sources. We do not know whether additional financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, when needed. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on commercially acceptable terms, our ability to fund our operations, support the growth of our business or otherwise respond to competitive pressures could be significantly delayed or limited, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial conditions, or results of operations.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim condensed financial statements as of June 30, 2022, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all accounting entries and adjustments (including normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods have been made. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's condensed balance sheet, condensed statement of operations and condensed statement of cash flows to conform to the current year presentation.

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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors and adjusts those estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and returns reserves. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our assessment of the collectability of accounts. Management regularly reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts by considering the age of each outstanding invoice, each customer's expected ability to pay, and the collection history with each customer, when applicable, to determine whether a specific allowance is appropriate. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts when identified. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the allowance for doubtful accounts balance was $0 and $82 thousand, respectively. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the reserve for sales returns was $26 thousand and $16 thousand, respectively.

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out ("FIFO") basis. Inventories are reviewed periodically to identify slow-moving inventory based on anticipated sales activity. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the reserve for obsolescence was $0.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("Topic 606"). The standard applies to all contracts with customers, except contracts that are within scope of other standards, such as leases, insurance, collaboration arrangements and financial instruments.

7

Table of Contents

Under Topic 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Topic 606 requires the entity to perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company sells its products through direct sales and independent distributors via sell-through and sell-in models. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods are transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services. Revenue associated with products holding rights of return are recognized when the Company concludes there is not a risk of significant revenue reversal in the future periods for the expected consideration in the transaction.

The Company may receive payments at the onset of the contract and before goods have been delivered. In such instances, the Company records a deferred revenue liability. The Company recognizes these contract liabilities as revenue after the revenue criteria are met. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the contract liability related to the Company's deferred revenues approximated $1 thousand and $3 thousand, respectively, and are included in "Other Accrued Liabilities" on the accompanying balance sheets.

The Company relies on third parties to have procedures in place to detect and prevent credit card fraud as the Company has exposure to losses from fraudulent charges. The Company records the losses related to chargebacks as incurred.

The Company has also elected to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price sales taxes remitted to governmental authorities.

Shipping and Handling

Shipping and handling fees paid by customers are recorded in revenue, with the related expenses recorded in cost of sales. Shipping and handling fees paid by customers in each of the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $1 thousand. Shipping and handling fees paid by customers in each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $2 thousand.

Shipping costs for delivery of product to customers in the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $34 thousand and $16, respectively. Shipping costs for delivery of product to customers in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $65 thousand and $42, respectively.

Product Warranty

The Company generally offers a one-year limited warranty on its products. The Company estimates the costs associated with the warranty obligation using historical data of warranty claims and costs incurred to satisfy those claims. Estimated warranty costs are expensed to cost of sales.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of merchandising, customer service and targeted online marketing costs, such as display advertising, keyword search campaigns, search engine optimization and social media and offline marketing costs such as television, radio and print advertising. Sales and marketing expenses also include payroll costs and stock-based compensation expense for employees involved in marketing activities. Sales and marketing expenses are primarily related to growing and retaining the customer base.

8

Table of Contents

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development programs, including the cost of salaries, payroll taxes, employee benefits, materials, supplies, maintenance of research equipment, the cost of services provided by outside contractors, and the allocable portions of facility costs, such as rent, utilities, insurance, repairs and maintenance, depreciation, and general support services. All costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation arrangements with employees and non-employee consultants using a fair value method which requires the recognition of compensation expense for costs related to all stock-based payments, including stock options. The fair value method for stock option grants requires the Company to estimate the fair value of stock-based payment awards to employees and non-employees on the date of grant using an option pricing model.

Stock-based compensation costs are based on the fair value of the underlying option calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.

Determining the appropriate fair value model and related assumptions requires judgment, including estimating stock price volatility, expected dividend yield, expected term, risk-free rate of return, and the estimated fair value of the underlying common stock. Due to the lack of company-specific historical and implied volatility data, the Company has based its estimate of expected volatility on the historical volatility of a group of similar companies that are publicly traded. The historical volatility is calculated based on a period of time commensurate with the expected term assumption. The group of representative companies have characteristics similar to the Company, including stage of product development and focus on the life science industry. The Company uses the simplified method, which is the average of the final vesting tranche date and the contractual term, to calculate the expected term for options granted to employees as it does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected term of the stock options. The Company uses an assumed dividend yield of zero as the Company has never paid dividends and has no current plans to pay any dividends on its common stock. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

Net Loss per Common Share

The Company computes net loss per share of common stock in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities. The Company considers its convertible preferred stock to be participating securities, because holders of such shares have non-forfeitable dividend rights in the event a dividend is paid on common stock. The holders of convertible preferred stock do not have a contractual obligation to share in the losses of the Company. As such, the Company does not allocate net losses to these participating securities. Upon completion of the Company's IPO in November 2021, all outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock automatically converted into shares of common stock and were no longer outstanding. Under the two-class method, basic net loss per share applicable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed similar to basic net loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares for the potential dilutive effects of warrants, convertible preferred stock and stock options outstanding during the period calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method, or the two-class method, whichever is more dilutive. For all periods presented, basic and diluted net loss per share is the same, as inclusion of any additional share equivalents would be anti-dilutive.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents include accounts held at one financial institution in the United States. At times, such deposits may be in excess of insured limits. Management believes that the financial institution is financially sound, and accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to the financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents balances exceeding FDIC insured limits by $8.5 million and $12.5 million, respectively.

9

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had two customers whose accounts receivable balances each totaled more than 10% or more of the Company's total accounts receivable (20% and 17%) compared with two such customers at December 31, 2021 (40% and 28%).

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had no customer who individually accounted for 10% or more of the Company's total revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had two customers who individually accounted for 10% or more of the Company's total revenue (20% and 24%).

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had one customer who individually accounted for 10% or more of the Company's total revenue (13%) compared with one customer for the six months ended June 30, 2021 (13%).

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus a global pandemic. The pandemic continues to cause disruptions to businesses and markets worldwide as the virus spreads or has a resurgence in certain jurisdictions. The effects of the outbreak are still evolving, and the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic and the implications on global economic conditions remains uncertain.

The negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact on the global economy and capital markets resulting from the geopolitical instability caused in part by the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, including inflation and Federal Reserve interest rate increases, have contributed to global supply chain issues and economic uncertainty, which have negatively affected our operations. Additionally, during the second quarter, the general consensus among economists suggests that we should expect a higher recession risk to continue over the next year, which could result in further economic uncertainty and volatility in the capital markets in the near term, and could negatively affect our operations.

Currently, we are experiencing increased pricing, longer lead-times, unavailability of product and limited supplies, protracted delivery dates, and/or shortages of certain parts and supplies that are necessary components for our products. As a result, the Company is carrying increased inventory balances to ensure availability of necessary products and to secure pricing.

As a result of these global issues, it has been difficult to accurately forecast our revenues or financial results, especially given the near and long term impact of the pandemic, and geopolitical issues, inflation, the Federal Reserve interest rate increases and the potential for a recession. In addition, while the potential impact and duration of these issues on the economy and our business may be difficult to assess or predict, these world events have resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, and may reduce our ability to access additional capital, which could negatively affect our liquidity in the future. Our results of operations could be materially below our forecasts as well, which could adversely affect our results of operations, disappoint analysts and investors, or cause our stock price to decline.

Furthermore, a decrease in orders in a given period could negatively affect our revenues in future periods. These global issues and events may also have the effect of heightening many risks associated with our customers and supply chain. We may take further actions that alter our operations as may be required by federal, state, or local authorities from time to time, or which we determine are in our best interests. In addition, we may decide to postpone or abandon planned investments in our business in response to changes in our business, which may impact our ability to attract and retain customers and our rate of innovation, either of which could harm our business.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2016-13,Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance within ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-11, and ASU 2020-02, (collectively, "Topic 326"). Topic 326 introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses for certain types of financial instruments, including accounts receivable, among other changes. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for public business entities, excluding smaller reporting companies. Topic 326 is effective January 1, 2023 for the Company as a smaller reporting company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the accounting standard updates on its financial statements.

Cash equivalents - Cash equivalents of $8.7 million and $12.8 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, consisted of money market funds. Money market funds are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets.

Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices) such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

There have been no changes to the valuation methodologies utilized by the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company evaluates transfers between levels at the end of each reporting period. There were no transfers of financial instruments between levels during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021.

Table of Contents

In 2021, the Company adopted the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan ("2021 Plan"). Options granted under the 2021 Plan may be Incentive Stock Options or Non-statutory Stock Options, as determined at the time of grant by the Compensation Committee of the Company's board of directors, who is responsible for administering the 2021 Plan. Stock Purchase Rights and Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") may also be granted under the 2021 Plan. The term shall be no more than ten years from the date of grant thereof.

To the extent outstanding awards under the 2021 Plan are forfeited or lapse unexercised, the shares of common stock subject to such awards will be available for future issuance under the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan provides that additional shares will automatically be added to the shares authorized for issuance under the 2021 Plan on January 1 of each year. The number of shares added each year will be equal to the lesser of: (i) 5.0% of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock on December 31st of the preceding calendar year or (ii) such number of shares determined by the board of directors, in its discretion. On January 1, 2022, 485,761 shares were automatically added to the number of shares authorized for issuance under 2021 Plan (an increase equal to 5% of the number of the outstanding shares of Company common stock as of December 31, 2021).

In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, (i) granted to an employee who, at the time of grant of such option, owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant; (ii) granted to any other employee, the per share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. In the case of a Non-statutory Stock Option; (i) granted to an employee who, at the time of grant of such option, owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant; (ii) granted to any other service provider, the per share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, options may be granted with a per share exercise price other than as required above pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction.

The options may include provisions permitting exercise of the option prior to full vesting. Any unvested shares upon termination shall be subject to repurchase by the Company at the original exercise price of the option.

As of June 30, 2022, there were 496,381 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2021 Plan.

Stock options granted under the Company's equity incentive plans generally vest over four years from the date of grant.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the interim condensed financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" or in other parts of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as those identified in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Overview

We are a bioelectronic medicine company developing and commercializing non-invasive, drug-free treatments for various diseases and conditions. Bioelectronic medicine, also referred to as electroceuticals or neuromodulation, is the treatment of disease and conditions by preferentially activating electrical functions of the body to modify central or peripheral nerve activity. ClearUP is our first FDA approved, handheld device for the treatment of sinus pain and congestion and it is currently selling directly to consumers via e-commerce platforms.

Business Developments

Bioelectronic medicine is an emerging, multiple billion-dollar market. Since our formation in September 2016, we have devoted substantially all of our efforts to the development of our proprietary technology platform to provide noninvasive, drug free treatments and treatment candidates for various diseases and conditions. In 2019, we launched ClearUP in the U.S. market. ClearUP is approved by the FDA for sales in the U.S. for the two indications noted above and has a CE Mark, which gives us commercial access in European countries and beyond. We currently sell directly to consumers through our own website, Amazon, and Walmart. We also sell through major and specialty online retailers, such as BestBuy and FSAStore.

In the first half of 2022, we invested in our marketing, product design and e-commerce distribution infrastructure as follows:

We broadened our advertising mix and increased marketing spend to drive sales growth.
We optimized our sales channel strategy to increase our profit margin, and terminated less profitable channels.
We made infrastructure-level improvements to our website and ecommerce functions, including upgrading the mobile experience and adding payment options.
We were featured in ABC News Report: "New Bioelectronic Technologies Could Signal the Future of Medicine" in January 2022.
ClearUP was named best sinus pain relief solution of 2021 by Global Health & Pharma Magazine in February 2022.
Our CEO spoke at high-profile events evangelizing bioelectronic medicine as a first-line therapeutic option for chronic disease, including Fortune Brainstorm Health and Neurotech Leaders' Forum.

In the first half of 2022, we invested in our product innovation and development programs as follows:

We advanced the collaboration with Mount Sinai School of Medicine Division of Rhinology and Skull Base Surgery on a sham-controlled clinical trial to evaluate a new bioelectronic approach to treating postoperative pain after sinus surgery. This is a 60-person randomized sham-controlled clinical trial is on-going.
We initiated development work related to a potential product candidate in migraine as follows:

17

Table of Contents

o Completed market studies to identify needs in the treatment of migraine
o Identified multiple internal and external assets for device development
o Identified clinical partner: Allergy & Asthma Associates of Santa Clara Valley Research Center
We broadened our IP portfolio receiving one new issuance, bringing issued claims to nearly 96. We also filed 4 additional Patent Cooperation Treaty ("PCT") applications covering new indications.

In the first half of 2022, we also strengthened our management team with key new hires, and we now have a core team of 14 individuals. We have intentionally maintained a small core team at this stage of the Company. We have relied, and continue to rely, heavily on third-party service providers, including marketing agencies, clinical research organizations and academic research partnerships, finance and accounting support, legal support, and contract manufacturing organizations to carry out our operations. In connection with our IPO in November last year, we upgraded various aspects of the Company to align with public company standards.

Revenue

Revenue is generated by the sale of our ClearUP product and ancillary products, including accessories and accelerated shipping charges, and is net of return reserves. We currently sell directly to consumers through our own website, Amazon and Walmart. We also sell to major and specialty online retailers, such as BestBuy and FSAStore. Noninvasive bioelectronic medicine is an emerging market space that provides consumers with non-drug treatments for various diseases and ClearUP is the first FDA approved bioelectronic treatment for sinus pain and congestion. We expect our sales continue to grow as we further our market penetration efforts and moderate price increases.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, revenue increased by $260 thousand, or 97%, compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due to a 44% increase in unit sales and the optimization of existing sales channels. Unit sales in our direct-to-consumer channels increased 265%, while unit sales in our retail channels decreased by 68% due to the termination of less profitable existing arrangements. Average sales price in our direct-to-consumer channels increased by 6%, while average sales price in our retail channels increased by 35%.

18

Table of Contents

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, revenue increased by $365 thousand, or 62%, compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due to a 36% increase in unit sales, with the majority came through our direct-to-consumer channels, and the optimization of existing sales channels. Unit sales in our direct-to-consumer channels increased by 153%, while unit sales in our retail channels decreased by 51%. Average sales price in our direct-to-consumer channels decreased by 1%, while average sales price in our retail channels increased by 22%.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales consists primarily of the materials and services to manufacture our products, the internal personnel costs to oversee manufacturing and supply chain functions, and the shipment of goods to customers. A significant portion of our cost of sales is currently in fixed and semi-fixed expenses associated with the management of manufacturing and supply chain. Cost of sales is expected to increase on an absolute basis as sales volume increases. Cost of sales is expected to decrease as a proportion of revenue with (i) the optimization of our supply chain and (ii) the allocation of fixed and semi-fixed expenses over increasing unit sales volume over time.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, cost of sales increased by $102 thousand, or 34%, compared to the same period in 2021, primarily driven by higher sales volume in 2022. Variable cost was $358 thousand, or $80.10 per unit, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $227 thousand, or $73.23 per unit, for the same period in 2021. The increase in the variable cost was primarily driven by increased shipping, fulfillment and transaction costs. Fixed cost was $45 thousand, or $10.16 per unit, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $74 thousand, or $23.95 per unit, for the same period in 2021. The decrease in the fixed cost was primarily due to higher sales volume absorbing the fixed overhead costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cost of sales increased by $158 thousand, or 26%, compared to the same period in 2021, primarily driven by higher sales volume in 2022. Variable cost was $667 thousand, or $80.94 per unit, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $462 thousand, or $76.46 per unit, for the same period in 2021. The increase in the variable cost was primarily due to increased shipping, fulfillment and transactional costs. Fixed cost was $93 thousand, or $11.26 per unit, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $139 thousand, or $23.05 per unit, for the same period in 2021. The decrease in the fixed cost was primarily due to higher sales volume absorbing the fixed overhead costs.

Gross Margin

Gross margin has been and will continue to be affected by and likely fluctuate on a quarterly basis due to a variety of factors, including sales volumes, product and channel mix, pricing strategies, costs of finished goods, and product return rates, new product launches and potential new manufacturing partners and suppliers. We expect our gross margin to increase with future price increases, optimization of our product design and supply-chain, and increasing sales volume over which fixed and semi-fixed costs are allocated.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred to conduct research, including the discovery, development and validation of product candidates. Research and development expenses include personnel costs, including stock-based compensation expense, third-party contractor services, including development and testing of prototype devices, and maintenance of limited in-house research facilities. We expense research and development costs as they are incurred. We expect research and development expenses to increase with the discovery and validation of new product candidates.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, research and development expenses increased by $305 thousand compared to the same period in 2021.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, research and development expenses increased by $508 thousand compared to the same period in 2021.

19

Table of Contents

The year-over-year increases for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2022 were primarily due to increased headcount and costs related to additional investments in product candidate research and design. The emphasis of research and development activities in 2022 was primarily related to product research and design in the migraine therapeutic area, initiation of a double-blind randomized controlled trial for post-operative pain relief following sinus surgery, and enhancement of our intellectual property protection. Activities in 2021 were primarily focused on seeking FDA approval for a second indication for our ClearUP product line.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses include personnel costs and expenses for advertising and other marketing services. Personnel costs consist of salaries, bonuses, benefits and stock-based compensation expense. We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase as we continue to expand our markets and distribution channels.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, sales and marketing expenses increased by $780 thousand compared to the same period in 2021.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, sales and marketing expenses increased by $1.2 million compared to the same period in 2021.

The increases for both the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2022 were due primarily to the expansion of our sales and marketing efforts, including (i) widening advertising platforms; (ii) growing our social media presence; (iii) upgrading and optimizing ecommerce infrastructure, online/website design; and (iv) other marketing initiatives.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include D&O insurance, personnel costs, expenses for outside professional services and other expenses. Personnel costs consist of salaries, bonuses, benefits and stock-based compensation expense. Outside professional services consist of legal, finance, accounting and audit services, and other consulting fees. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase as we optimize our operational infrastructure mix versus using outside consultants in the next year or two, but expect the expense to decrease as a proportion of revenue as revenue scales against fixed and semi-fixed administrative expenses over time.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.0 million compared to the same period in 2021, and was primarily attributable to $420 thousand of increased personnel costs associated with increased headcount, $183 thousand of increased legal and professional fees, $204 thousand of increased D&O insurance costs and $191 thousand of other fees and professional services that are required for public company standards.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.7 million compared to the same period in 2021, and was primarily attributable to $694 thousand of increased personnel costs associated with increased headcount, $112 thousand of increased legal and professional fees, $408 thousand of increased D&O insurance costs, $110 thousand of increased rent associated with the relocation of the Company's headquarters and $191 thousand of other increased fees and professional services that are required for public company standards.

Other Income / Expense, Net

Other expense, net in 2021 consisted primarily of amortization of debt discount included in interest of $469 thousand, offset by $157 thousand of debt forgiveness associated with PPP loans. There were no similar expenses in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

From our inception through June 30, 2022, we have generated $3.5 million in revenue from product sales and have incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from our operations. As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.0 million, working capital of $8.0 million and an accumulated deficit of $24.8 million. We have financed our operations to date primarily through issuances of SAFE instruments, convertible notes and convertible preferred stock and the proceeds from the IPO in November 2021. In 2019, we sold an aggregate of 2,787,854 shares of our convertible preferred stock to accredited investors, generating net proceeds of $3.8 million and borrowings from convertible notes payables issued to investors in the amount of $1.7 million. In 2020, we borrowed $1.6 million by issuing convertible notes and issued notes payable to borrow $195 thousand. In November 2021, we completed our IPO, generating net proceeds to the Company of approximately $14.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we borrowed $2.6 million by issuing convertible notes payable. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we did not engage in any capital raising activities, other than through the sale of our products. Management believes that the Company has adequate cash and financial resources to operate for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.

In addition, on October 28, 2021, we entered into a Revolving Line of Credit Note with Tethered LLC ("Tethered") providing us with a $250 thousand revolving line of credit (the "Line of Credit"), pursuant to which we may request advances until December 3, 2022. Advances drawn under the Line of Credit bear interest at an annual rate of 6.0%, and each advance will be payable on the maturity date with the interest on outstanding advances payable monthly. We may, at our option, prepay any borrowings under the Line of Credit, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the maturity date, without premium or penalty. To date, we have not drawn down on the Line of Credit.

Management expects to incur substantial additional operating losses for the foreseeable future to expand our markets, continue research and development programs, complete development of new products, obtain regulatory approvals, launch and commercialize our products and comply with material government (including environmental) regulations.

Recent Financing Developments

In November 2021, we completed our IPO of 3,450,000 shares of common stock, at a public offering price of $5.00 per share, including the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase 450,000 additional shares of common stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $17.3 million and our shares started trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol "TIVC." We received approximately $14.9 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by the Company. In connection with the closing of the IPO, all of our outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock at the time of the IPO automatically converted into an aggregate of 2,227,116 shares of common stock and outstanding convertible notes payable borrowings of $4.4 million outstanding at the time of the IPO converted into an aggregate of 1,204,160 shares of common stock.

We intend to raise additional capital through the issuance of additional equity and/or debt. If financing is not available at adequate levels, we may need to reevaluate our operating plans. Based on projected activities, management believes the Company has adequate cash and financial resources to operate for at least the next twelve months.

Plan of Operation and Future Funding Requirements

We use our capital resources primarily to fund marketing and advertising for ClearUP, development of our product candidates, and general operations. We expect that our operating expenses will increase significantly as we discover, acquire, validate and develop additional product candidates; seek regulatory approval and, if approved, proceed to commercialization of new products; obtain, maintain, protect and enforce our intellectual property portfolio; hire additional personnel; and maintain compliance with material government (in addition to environmental) regulations. We plan to increase our research and development investments to identify and develop new product candidates. Furthermore, we have incurred and will continue to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company that we did not experience as a private company. We expect to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future. At this time, due to the inherently unpredictable nature of research and new product adoption, as well as supply chain constraints that we are currently facing, we cannot reasonably estimate the costs we will incur and the timelines that will be required to complete development, obtain marketing approval and commercialize future product candidates, if at all. For the same reasons, we are also unable to predict how quickly we will ramp-up revenue from ClearUP product sales or whether, or when, if ever, we may achieve profitability from the sales of one or more products. Clinical and preclinical development timelines, the probability of success, and sell-in costs can differ materially from expectations. In addition, we cannot forecast which product candidates may be best developed and/or monetized through future collaborations, when such arrangements will be secured, if at all, and to what degree such arrangements would affect our development plans and capital requirements.

As previously disclosed, we have encountered disruptions in our supply of various materials and components, and electronic components in particular, due to well-documented shortages and constraints in the global supply chain. We are continuing to evaluate alternative and secondary source suppliers in order to ensure that we are able to source sufficient components and materials to manufacture our products. Global supply chain shortages (especially when coupled with the increase in inflation) could result in an increase in the cost of the components used in our products, which could result in a decrease of our gross margins or in us having to increase the price at which we sell our products until supply chain constraints are resolved. Additionally, in the event that we are unable source sufficient components and materials from our current suppliers, or to develop relationships with additional suppliers, to manufacture enough of our products to satisfy demand, we may have to cease or slow down production and our business operations and financial condition may be materially harmed and we may need to alter our plan of operation.

In addition to the foregoing, we may, from time to time, consider opportunities for strategic acquisitions. If one or more such acquisitions is identified, a substantial portion of our cash reserves may be required to complete it. If we identify an attractive acquisition that would require more cash to complete than we are willing or able to use from our cash reserves, we will consider financing options to complete the acquisition, including through equity and/or debt financings.

We have generated operating losses in each period since inception. We have incurred an accumulated deficit of $24.8 million through June 30, 2022. We expect to incur additional losses in the future as we expand both our marketing and research and development activities. Based on our current plans, we believe that we have adequate cash and financial resources to operate for at least the next twelve months. However, we have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our capital resources sooner than we expect.

Our ability to grow sales revenue will depend on successfully executing a comprehensive marketing campaign to drive additional sales through existing and new channels. Long-term growth will be commensurate with our ability to successfully identify, develop, and secure regulatory approval of one or more additional product candidates beyond ClearUP. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through private or public equity or debt financings, collaborative or other arrangements with corporate sources, or through other sources of financing. Adequate funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and when needed, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and commercialization of our products and/or future product candidates.

The timing and amount of our operating expenditures will depend largely on:

·

the availability of electronic parts and other components for our products, as well as our ability to source such parts and components at favorable prices;

·

the timing and progress of sales initiatives driving top-line revenue;

22

·

the timing and adoption rate of ClearUP upgrades at lower cost of goods;

·

the payment terms and timing of commercial contracts entered into for manufacturing and sales of our products to and through online third-party retailers;

·

the timing and progress of preclinical and clinical development activities;

·

the number and scope of preclinical and clinical programs we decide to pursue;

·

the costs involved in prosecuting and enforcing patent and other intellectual property claims;

·

the cost and timing of additional regulatory approvals beyond those currently held by us;

·

our efforts to enhance operational systems and hire additional personnel, including personnel to support finance, sales, marketing, operations and development of our product candidates and satisfy our obligations as a public company;

our efforts to maintain compliance with material government (including environmental) regulations.

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, we expect to fund our operations and capital funding needs through equity and/or debt financings. We may also consider entering into collaboration arrangements or selectively partnering with third parties for clinical development and commercialization. The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of additional debt would result in debt service obligations, and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations or our ability to incur additional indebtedness or pay dividends, among other items. If we raise additional funds through governmental funding, collaborations, strategic partnerships and alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are not able to secure adequate additional funding, we may be forced to make reductions in spending, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible, and/or suspend or curtail planned programs. Any of these actions could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $3.9 million, which consisted primarily of a net loss of $5.3 million decreased by non-cash charges of $257 thousand and decreased by a net change of $1.1 million in our accounts payable balance. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of stock-based compensation of $173 thousand and amortization of right-of-use assets of $80 thousand.

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $1.2 million, which consisted primarily of net loss of $2.5 million decreased by non-cash charges of $319 thousand and increased by a net change of $923 thousand in our net operating assets. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of debt discount amortization of $469 thousand and stock-based compensation of $18 thousand offset by forgiveness of the PPP loan of $157 thousand. The change in our net operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $974 thousand offset by an increase in accounts receivable, inventory and prepaid expenses of $51 thousand.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was related to the purchases of property and equipment. We had no investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Financing Activities

We had no financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Our financing activities provided $1.8 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2021, which consisted primarily of 2.2 million of proceeds from convertible notes payable borrowings offset by $363 thousand of payments for deferred offering costs.

Known Trends or Uncertainties

As discussed elsewhere this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the world has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and economic uncertainty in human capital management ("HCM"). Inflation has risen, Federal Reserve interest rates have increased recently, and the general consensus among economists suggests that we should expect a higher recession risk to continue over the next year. Climate change continues to be an intense topic of public discussion and is adding additional challenges and financial burden due to impending reparations and changes in the customer mindset. These factors, amongst other things, could result in further economic uncertainty and volatility in the capital markets in the near term, and could negatively affect our operations. The pandemic and recent economic volatility have negatively impacted our business in various ways over the last two years, including, more recently, as a result of global supply chain constraints at least partially attributable to the pandemic. Until the pandemic has passed, there remains uncertainty as to the effect of COVID-19 on our business in both the short and long-term. We will continue to monitor material impacts on our HCM strategies, including potential of employee attrition, amongst other things.

We are continuing to encounter disruptions in our supply of various materials and components, and electronic components in particular, due to well-documented shortages and constraints in the global supply chain. We are experiencing increased pricing, longer lead-times, unavailability of product and limited supplies, protracted delivery dates, and/or shortages of certain parts and supplies that are necessary components for our products. As a result, we are carrying increased inventory balances to ensure availability of necessary products and to secure pricing. We are also currently evaluating alternative and secondary source suppliers in order to ensure that we are able to source sufficient components and materials to manufacture our products at a reasonable price point. In the event that the price of our components increase significantly or we are unable source sufficient components and materials from our current suppliers, or to develop relationships with additional suppliers, to manufacture enough of our products to satisfy demand, we may have to cease or slow down production and our business operations and financial condition may be materially harmed.

Table of Contents

U.S. and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the escalation of geopolitical tensions and the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Although the length and impact of the ongoing military conflict is highly unpredictable, the conflict in Ukraine could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as further supply chain interruptions. Additionally, the recent military conflict in Ukraine has led to sanctions and other penalties being levied by the United States, European Union and other countries against Russia. Additional potential sanctions and penalties have also been proposed and/or threatened. Russian military actions and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets, potentially making it more difficult for us to obtain additional funds.

Although our business has not been materially impacted by the ongoing military conflict between Russian and Ukraine to date, it is impossible to predict the extent to which our operations, or those of our suppliers and manufacturers, will be impacted in the short and long term, or the ways in which the conflict may impact our business. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict, but could be substantial. We are continuing to monitor the situation in Ukraine and globally and assessing its potential impact on our business.

As a result of these global issues, it has been difficult to accurately forecast our revenues or financial results, especially given the near and long term impact of the pandemic, and geopolitical issues, inflation, the Federal Reserve interest rate increases and the potential for a recession. In addition, while the potential impact and duration of these issues on the economy and our business may be difficult to assess or predict, these world events have resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, and may reduce our ability to access additional capital, which could negatively affect our liquidity in the future. Our results of operations could be materially below our forecasts as well, which could adversely affect our results of operations, disappoint analysts and investors, or cause our stock price to decline.

Furthermore, a decrease in orders in a given period could negatively affect our revenues in future periods. These global issues and events may also have the effect of heightening many risks associated with our customers and supply chain. We may take further actions that alter our operations as may be required by federal, state, or local authorities from time to time, or which we determine are in our best interests. In addition, we may decide to postpone or abandon planned investments in our business in response to changes in our business, which may impact our ability to attract and retain customers and our rate of innovation, either of which could harm our business.

Inflation

Inflation has increased during the periods covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and is expected to continue to increase for the near future. Inflationary factors, such as increases in the cost of our products (and components thereof), interest rates, overhead costs and transportation costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, we may experience some effect in the near future (especially if inflation rates continue to rise) due to supply chain constraints, consequences associated with COVID-19 and the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, employee availability and wage increases, trade tariffs imposed on certain products from China and increased product pricing due to semiconductor product shortages.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Office Lease

The Company executed a noncancelable operating lease for approximately 9,091 square feet of office space in Hayward, California in November 2021 as its headquarters. The lease will expire in October 2025 and there is no option to renew for an additional term. The Company is obligated to pay, on a pro-rata basis, real estate taxes and operating costs related to the premises.

Lease cost recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $101 thousand. There were no similar lease costs in 2021 related to the noncancelable operating lease, as the lease was not in effect at that time.

25

Table of Contents

We enter into contracts in the normal course of business with our contract manufacturer and other vendors to assist in the manufacturing of our products and performance of our research and development activities and other services for operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination on notice, and therefore are cancelable contracts and not included in the table of contractual obligations and commitments. There have been no material changes to our previously disclosed business strategy with respect to our contractual obligations as disclosed under Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Contractual Obligations in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

Our condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of the condensed financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to sales return reserves, warranty reserves, stock-based compensation, and going concern. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors, including the macro-economic factors such as COVID-19 pandemic, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The methods, estimates, and judgments used by us in applying these critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our significant accounting policies and estimates are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022.

Information regarding our significant accounting policies and estimates can also be found in Note 2 to our condensed financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") Rules 13a 15(e) and 15d 15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Evaluation Date"), have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, where appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

We consummated our IPO in November 2021, and are continuing to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, including any weakness in our internal controls. In accordance with the transition period established by Item 308 of Regulation S-K for newly public companies, we intend to complete an analysis and include a management's assessment regarding internal controls over financial reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022.

26

Table of Contents

As disclosed in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, we noted a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. The material weakness identified in our case arose from insufficient accounting and financial reporting personnel, inadequate segregation of duties, and inadequate application of inventory cost accounting procedures due to the small size of the Company.

In connection with, and subsequent to, the consummation of our IPO, we have taken various steps to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting, including, without limitation:

Hired a chief financial officer with significant public company finance and accounting experience, including applying GAAP technical accounting guidance;
Formed various committees of our board of directors, including an audit committee with at least one member who qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert," as defined by SEC rules;
Engaged an independent registered public accounting firm to review our quarterly financial statements and audit our annual financial statements;
Hired a professional accounting outsource firm to support the Company's accounting close and SEC reporting;
Strengthening our internal policies and procedures; and
Strengthened our material government regulatory compliance.

As we continue to evaluate and take actions to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional actions to address control deficiencies or determine to modify certain of the remediation measurements that we are anticipating to make, which may include, without limitation, retaining a third party to assist with the implementation of any such remediations. The retention of third-party service providers for purposes of remediation may involve us incurring material costs in the future.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings, litigation or claims, nor are aware of any pending, threatened, or unasserted claims, which, if determined adversely to us, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. We may from time to time, be a party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

Please carefully consider the information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the "Annual Report"), which could materially affect our business, financial condition, or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report, as well as other risks and uncertainties, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the trading price of shares of our common stock. There have been no material updates or changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report; provided, however, additional risks not currently known or currently material to us may also harm our business.

Item 2.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

The Company did not sell any unregistered equity securities during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Use of Proceeds

On November 10, 2021, our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-258411) was declared effective by the SEC for our initial public offering ("IPO"). At the closing of the offering on November 15, 2021, we sold 3,000,000 shares of common stock at an initial public offering price of $5.00 per share and received gross proceeds of $15.0 million, which resulted in net proceeds to us of approximately $12.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $1.1 million, underwriter non-accountable expenses of $150 thousand, and underwriter offering-related transaction costs of $919 thousand. None of the expenses associated with the initial public offering were paid to directors, officers, persons owning ten percent or more of any class of equity securities, or to their associates, or to our affiliates. ThinkEquity LLC ("ThinkEquity") acted as sole book-running manager for the offering.

On November 16, 2021, the underwriter fully exercised its over-allotment option to purchase an additional 450,000 shares of common stock at the public offering price of $5.00 per share. The Company received gross proceeds of $2.3 million for the over-allotment, which resulted in net proceeds to us of approximately $2.1 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $169 thousand.

As partial consideration for the underwriting services provided by ThinkEquity in connection with the IPO, we issued designees of ThinkEquity warrants to purchase an aggregate of 172,500 shares of our common stock. The warrants will be exercisable for a four-and-one-half year period commencing 180 days following consummation of the IPO at an exercise price of $6.25 per share.

There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from our IPO as described in our final prospectus filed with the SEC on November 12, 2021, pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4).

Repurchases

On April 1, 2022, in connection with the resignation of the Company's former Chief Financial Officer, Briana Benz, the Company repurchased a total of 93,750 restricted shares of Company common stock from Ms. Benz for an aggregate purchase price of $375 ($0.004 per share), which shares were previously purchased by Ms. Benz pursuant to that Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and Ms. Benz, dated July 30, 2021, and remained unvested as of the Separation Date.
