Theratechnologies Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies addressing unmet medical needs.
The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Theratechnologies Inc. and its wholly- owned subsidiaries (together referred to as the Company and individually as the subsidiaries of the Company).
The Company has two wholly-owned subsidiaries that are material:
| Theratechnologies Europe Limited, a company governed by the Companies Act 2014 (Ireland). Theratechnologies Europe Limited provides the services of personnel to Theratechnologies Inc. for its activities in the United States. |
| Theratechnologies U.S., Inc., a company governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law (Delaware). Theratechnologies U.S., Inc. provides the services of personnel to Theratechnologies Inc. for its activities in the United States. |
Theratechnologies Inc. is governed by the Business Corporations Act (Québec) and is domiciled in Québec, Canada. The Company is located at 2015 Peel Street, Suite 1100, Montréal, Québec, H3A 1T8, Canada.
1. | Basis of preparation |
(a) | Accounting framework |
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements (interim financial statements), including comparative information, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
Certain information, in particular the accompanying notes normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, has been omitted or condensed. These interim financial statements do not include all disclosures required under IFRS and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2022 and the notes thereto.
These interim financial statements have been authorized for issue by the Companys Audit Committee on April 11, 2023.

1. | Basis of preparation (continued) |
(b) | Going concern uncertainty |
As part of the preparation of the interim financial statements, management is responsible for identifying any event or situation that may cast doubt on the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Substantial doubt regarding the Companys ability to continue as a going concern exists if events or conditions, considered collectively, indicate that the Company may be unable to honor its obligations as they fall due during a period of at least, but not limited to, 12 months from February 28, 2023. If the Company concludes that events or conditions cast substantial doubt on its ability to continue as a going concern, it must assess whether the plans developed to mitigate these events or conditions will remove any possible substantial doubt.
For the three-month period ended February 28, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $10,443 (2022 $9,032) and had positive operating cash flows of $2,361 (2022 $42). The Companys total current liabilities exceeded total current assets at February 28, 2023. The Companys outstanding $27,467 convertible unsecured senior notes mature in June 2023 (refer to Note 7) requiring the Company to use its cash balance and draw the Tranche 2 Loan (as defined in Note 6) of its term loan facility available (the Loan Facility) to repay the principal and the interest thereon. The Loan Facility is available in four tranches and contains various covenants, including minimum liquidity covenants whereby the Company needs to maintain significant cash, cash equivalent and eligible short-term investments balances in specified accounts, which restricts the management of the Companys liquidity (refer to notes 18 and 24 of the annual consolidated financial statements as at November 30, 2022). There are also operational milestones and required revenue targets in order for the Company to comply with the conditions of the Loan Facility and to be able to borrow money forming part of the various tranches.
The Companys ability to continue as a going concern for period of at least, but not limited to, 12 months from February 28, 2023 involves significant judgement and is dependent on its ability to increase revenues and manage expenses to generate sufficient positive cash flows from operations and/or find alternative source of funding to respect all the various covenants of its Loan Facility, including obtaining the approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration for its F8 formulation of Tesamorelin on or before March 31, 2024, and/or to obtain the continued support of its lender. Management believes its plans will comply with all of the other various covenants of the Loan Facility to draw the Tranche 2 Loan, repay all the convertible unsecured senior notes due June 30, 2023, and to comply with the covenants for the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that managements plans will be realized since some elements of these plans are outside of managements control and cannot be predicted at this time. Should managements plans not materialize, the Company may be forced to reduce or delay expenditures and capital additions, seek additional financing through the issuance of equity or obtain from the lender waivers of these covenants, if available. Raising additional equity capital is subject to market conditions. As a result, there is material uncertainty related to events or conditions that cast substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.

1. | Basis of preparation (continued) |
(b) | Going concern uncertainty (continued) |
Furthermore, the Loan Facility includes a covenant prohibiting having a going concern explanatory paragraph in the annual report of the independent registered public accounting firm but the lender amended the Loan Facility on February 27, 2023 to exclude the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022. The term loan has been reclassified from current at November 30, 2022 to long-term at February 28, 2023 as a result of the waiver received within the first quarter. There is no assurance that the lender will agree to amend or to waive potential future covenant breaches, if any.
These interim financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the Company will continue its operations in the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities and reported expenses that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty and that may be necessary if the going concern basis was not appropriate for these interim financial statements. If the Company was unable to continue as a going concern, material impairment of the carrying values of the Companys assets, including intangible assets, could be required.
(c) | Basis of measurement |
The Companys interim financial statements have been prepared on going concern and historical cost bases, except for bonds and money market funds, derivative financial assets, liabilities related to cash-settled share-based arrangements and warrant liabilities, which are measured at fair value. Equity-classified shared-based payment arrangements are measured at fair value at grant date pursuant to IFRS 2, Share-based Payment.
The methods used to measure fair value are discussed further in Note 12.
(d) | Use of estimates and judgments |
The preparation of the Companys interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS 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 interim financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies and assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the interim financial statements are disclosed in Note 1 of the annual consolidated financial statements as at November 30, 2022.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company voluntarily changed its accounting policy to classify interest paid and received as part of operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. Previously, the Company elected to classify interest paid as cash flow from financing activities and interest received as cash flows from investing activities. Accordingly, the Company has recast the three-month period ended February 28, 2022, comparative financial information on the consolidated statement of cash flows resulting in previously reported cash flow from operation decreasing by $1,585, cash flow used in financing by $1,653 and cash flow used in investing activities increased by $68.
Previously reported cash flows for the three-month period ended February 28, 2022, from operating activities, used in financing activities and in investing activities were $4,105, $1,959 and $22, respectively.
New standard adopted
Onerous contracts Cost of Fulfilling a Contract (Amendments to IAS 37)
The amendments specify which costs an entity includes in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract for the purpose of assessing whether the contract is onerous. The amendments apply for the Companys annual reporting periods beginning on December 1, 2022, to contracts existing at the date when the amendments are first applied. At the date of initial application, the cumulative effect of applying the amendments is recognised as an opening balance adjustment to retained earnings or other components of equity, as appropriate. The comparatives are not restated. The adoption of the standard did not have an impact on the financial statements.

6. | Term Loan |
On July 20, 2022, the Company entered into a credit agreement providing for up to $100,000 (the Loan Facility) in loan. The disbursement of the loan is available in four various tranches.
The salient features of the Loan Facility are as follows:
| Senior secured term loan of up to $100,000 across four tranches; |
| $40,000 funded on July 27, 2022 (Tranche 1 Loan); |
| $20,000 (Tranche 2 Loan) to be made available no later than June 30, 2023 if the Company has had net revenues of at least $75,000 for the 12-month period immediately preceding the funding of the Tranche 2 Loan, conditional upon the submission to the FDA of the results from a human factors validation study the Company is currently conducting (the HFS Study) and subject to the Company not being in default of its obligations under the Loan Facility. Subsequent to year-end, the lender removed the condition to submit to the FDA the results from the HFS Study the Company is currently conducting. If the other conditions to obtain Tranche 2 Loan are not met by June 30, 2023, then it nor any other tranche will be available; |
| $15,000 (Tranche 3 Loan) to be made available no later than March 2024 if the Tranche 2 Loan has been drawn and the Company has obtained approval from the FDA for its F8 formulation of tesamorelin, has had net revenues of at least $90,000 in the 12-month period preceding the funding of the Tranche 3 Loan and if the Company is not in default of its obligations under the Loan Facility; |
| Up to an additional $25,000 (Tranche 4 Loan) to be made available if the Tranche 3 Loan has been drawn and the Company has had at least $110,000 in net revenues in the 12-month period preceding the funding of the Tranche 4 Loan and at least $20,000 in EBITDA for the same period (as defined in the Loan Facility document until December 31, 2024); |
| The Loan Facility has an initial term of five years (six years if Tranche 3 Loan is drawn), provides for an interest-only period of 24 months (36 months if Tranche 3 Loan is drawn), and bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 9.5%. The Tranche 1 Loan and Tranche 2 Loan are repayable in equal monthly installments on an amortization schedule of 36 months starting in July 2024 (July 2025 if the Tranche 3 Loan is funded on or prior to December 31, 2023); |
| The Loan Facility provides quarterly revenue targets and minimum liquidity covenants. Until the F8 formulation is approved, the Company must maintain at all times cash, cash equivalents and eligible short-term investments in the amount of $20,000 in specified accounts which amount will be increased to $30,000 if the Company has not obtained approval from the FDA for its F8 formulation by March 31, 2024; |
| The Loan Facility restricts the ability to incur additional debt, acquisitions, dispositions, in-licensing and out-licensing of products or assets, except in very limited circumstances. A breach of the terms and conditions of the Loan Facility will create an event of default resulting in an increase of 300 basis points on the outstanding loan and provide the lender with the ability to demand immediate repayment of the debt, and not advance any additional tranches; |

(a) | On February 17, 2023, the Company terminated its lease in Ireland. Accordingly, the Company reduced its right-of-use assets by $799, the lease liabilities by $920 and recorded a gain on lease termination of $121. The gain is presented in finance costs (Note 4) |
9. | Share capital and warrants |
(a) | Public offering Warrants |
On January 19, 2021, the Company completed a public offering for the sale and issuance of 16,727,900 units at a price of $2.75 per unit for a gross cash consideration of $46,002, including the full exercise of the over-allotment option.
Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a Public offering Warrant). During the first quarter ended February 28, 2023, no Public offering Warrants were exercised and there were 8,130,550 Public offering Warrants outstanding. Each Public offering Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share at an exercise price of US$3.18 at any time until January 19, 2024.

(b) | Marathon Warrants |
On February 27, 2023, the Company issued to affiliates of Marathon Asset Management (collectively, Marathon), prorata to their participation under the Loan Facility, an aggregate of 5,000,000 common share purchase warrants (the Marathon Warrants). Each Marathon Warrant entitles the holder thereof to subscribe for one common share of the Company at a price of $1.45 for a period of seven years. The Marathon Warrants are not traded on any stock exchange, are transferable only to affiliates of Marathon or to other potential lenders under the terms of the Loan Facility and their affiliates and may be exercised on a cashless basis. Accordingly, the Marathon Warrants are derivative financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The Marathon Warrants were issued as consideration for various amendments made to the Loan Facility, including:
| An amendment to remove the second tranche condition requiring the Company to have filed with the FDA the results of its HFS Study before June 30, 2023; and |
| An amendment to allow for the inclusion of a going concern explanatory paragraph in the annual report of the independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022. |
The fair value of the Marathon Warrants was treated as a cash outflow in testing whether the debt modification was substantial modification. For the three-month period ended February 28, 2023, $2,650 was recorded as loss on debt modification using the Black-Sholes model and the following weighted average assumptions. The derivative financial liability relating to the Marathon Warrants is recorded as a liability on the consolidated statement of financial position.

(c) | Stock option plan |
The Company has established a stock option plan (the Plan) under which it can grant its directors, officers, employees, researchers and consultants non-transferable options for the purchase of common shares. The exercise date of an option may not be later than 10 years after the grant date. On March 3, 2022, the Companys Board of Directors amended the Plan to convert it from a fixed plan to a rolling plan, whereby the maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued under the Plan (and under any other security-based compensation arrangements of the Company) was changed from a fixed number of Common Shares to a number of Common Shares equal to 10% of all Common Shares issued and outstanding from time to time, on a non-diluted basis, and including a reloading or evergreen feature, so that when options are exercised, the number of Common Shares issuable will be replenished and exercised options will be available to be regranted in the future. Shareholders ratified this amendment on May 10, 2022. Generally, the options vest at the grant date or over a period of up to three years. As at February 28, 2023, 549,386 options could still be granted by the Company (2022 1,882,015) under the Plan.
All options are to be settled by the physical delivery of common shares.

The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield on a Canadian government or U.S. zero-coupon issue, with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the option. The volatility is based on weighted average historical volatility adjusted for a period equal to the expected life. The life of the options is estimated taking into consideration the vesting period at the grant date, the life of the option and the average length of time similar grants have remained outstanding in the past. The dividend yield was excluded from the calculation, since it is the present policy of the Company to retain all earnings to finance operations and future growth.

The Black-Scholes model used by the Company to calculate option values was developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which significantly differ from the Companys stock option awards. This model also requires four highly subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and average option life, which greatly affect the calculated values.
(d) | Loss per share |
The calculation of basic loss per share was based on the net loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company of $10,443 (2022 $9,032) and a weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 96,806,299 (2022 95,121,639), calculated as follows:

The nature and extent of the Companys exposure to risks arising from financial instruments are consistent with the disclosure in the annual consolidated financial statements as at November 30, 2022, considering the update below.
12. | Determination of fair values |
Certain of the Companys accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value
In establishing fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on levels as defined below:
Level 1: | Defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets. | |||
Level 2: | Defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable. | |||
Level 3: | Defined as inputs that are based on little or no observable market data, therefore requiring entities to develop their own assumptions. |

12. | Determination of fair values (continued) |
Other financial assets and financial liabilities
The Company has determined that the carrying values of its short-term financial assets and financial liabilities, including cash, trade and other receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair value because of their relatively short period to maturity.
Bonds and money market funds and derivative financial assets and liabilities are stated at fair value, determined by inputs that are primarily based on broker quotes at the reporting date (Level 2).
The fair value of the convertible unsecured senior notes, including the equity portion, as at February 28, 2023, was approximately $24,879 (Level 1) based on market quotes.
The Company has determined that the carrying value of its term loan approximates its fair value because the terms were modified near the end of the first quarter of 2023.
Share-based payment transactions
The fair value of the employee stock options are measured based on the Black-Scholes valuation model. Measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on weighted average historical volatility adjusted a period equal to the expected life), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions, if any, are not taken into account in determining fair value.
The Marathon Warrants and deferred stock units liability is recognized at fair value and considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy for financial instruments. The fair value is determined using the quoted price of the common shares of the Company.

NON-IFRS AND NON-US GAAP MEASURE
The information presented in this MD&A includes a measure that is not determined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) or U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP), being the term Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is used by the Corporation as an indicator of financial performance and is obtained by adding to net profit or loss, finance income and costs, depreciation and amortization, income taxes, share-based compensation from stock options, and certain write-downs (or related reversals) of inventories. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the effects of items that primarily reflect the impact of long-term investment and financing decisions rather than the results of day-to-day operations. The Corporation believes that this measure can be a useful indicator of its operational performance from one period to another. The Corporation uses this non-IFRS measure to make financial, strategic and operating decisions. Adjusted EBITDA is not a standardized financial measure under the financial reporting framework used to prepare the financial statements of the Corporation to which the measure relates and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. The Corporation has reinstated its use of Adjusted EBITDA starting this quarter and has included Adjusted EBITDA for the comparative period. A quantitative reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA is presented under the heading Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA in this MD&A.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies addressing unmet medical needs. Our business strategy is to grow revenues and to achieve a positive Adjusted EBITDA from the sale of our existing and potential future assets in North America and to develop a portfolio of complementary products, compatible with our expertise in drug development and our commercialization know-how. We currently have two approved products: EGRIFTA SV® and Trogarzo® in the United States. In addition to the sale of our products, we are conducting research and development activities. We have a pipeline of investigational medicines in the areas of NASH and oncology.
OUR MEDICINES
The Company commercializes two approved medicines for people living with HIV in the United States, namely EGRIFTA SV® and Trogarzo®.
EGRIFTA SV® (tesamorelin for injection) is a new formulation of EGRIFTA® which was originally approved by the FDA in November 2010 and was launched in the United States in January 2011. EGRIFTA SV® was approved by the FDA in November 2018, was launched in 2019 and has now replaced EGRIFTA® in such country. EGRIFTA SV® can be kept at room temperature, comes in a single vial and has a higher concentration resulting in a smaller volume of administration. EGRIFTA SV® is currently the only approved therapy in the United States for the reduction of excess abdominal fat in HIV- infected patients with lipodystrophy and our organization has been commercializing this product in this country since May1st, 2014.

Trogarzo® was approved by the FDA in March 2018 for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in heavily treatment-experienced adults with multidrug resistant, or (MDR), HIV-1 infection failing their current antiretroviral regimen.
In March 2016, we obtained the rights to commercialize Trogarzo® in the United States and Canada pursuant to a distribution and licensing agreement with TaiMed. In March 2017, the agreement was amended to include the commercial rights to Trogarzo® in the European Union and in other countries such as Israel, Norway, Russia and Switzerland (the TaiMed Agreement). In April 2022, the Company sent a notice of termination to TaiMed in connection with its commercialization and distribution rights of Trogarzo® in Europe.
On October 3, 2022, the FDA approved a 30-second Intravenous (IV) Push method of administration for Trogarzo®.
OUR PIPELINE
Theratechnologies has established a promising pipeline of investigational medicines in areas of high unmet need, including NASH, oncology and HIV.
Tesamorelin
EGRIFTA SV® Human Factors Study
In HIV-associated lipodystrophy, we are on track to complete the Human Factors Study (HFS) for EGRIFTA SV® in the first half of 2023, and we are diligently completing the work associated to the supplemental biologic license application (sBLA) filing for the F8 formulation of Tesamorelin (F8 Formulation) with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
We are also confident in successfully addressing the shortage of bacteriostatic water for injection (BWFI) by placing the sourcing of this drug component under our own control via the services of a third-party manufacturer, thereby securing a secondary source of supply for this important component to the F8 Formulation. The further development of Tesamorelin allows Theratechnologies to maintain its positioning as one of the few options for drug developers to immediately partner with a company in order to launch a Phase 2b/3 NASH clinical trial.
F8 Formulation
In the spring of 2022, we were informed by the sole global supplier of BWFI that its manufacturing plant had been the subject of an FDA inspection that resulted in this supplier having to make modifications to its facilities before being able to resume manufacturing and shipment of its BWFI. As a result, our plan to file a sBLA by the end of the first quarter of 2022 had to be delayed until this supplier could resume the manufacture of BWFI and the shipment thereof or until we could find an alternate supplier to source BWFI.
Theratechnologies Inc. 2015 Peel Street, 11th Floor Montreal, Québec H3A 1T8 |

We have entered into a development agreement with a third-party supplier for the manufacture of our own supply of BWFI and, to date, the engineering and validation batches of BWFI have been manufactured. We have initiated discussions with this third-party supplier with the aim of entering into a long-term supply agreement for BWFI. In addition, with the requirement of the FDA to conduct a HFS for EGRIFTA SV®, we have proactively decided to conduct one for the F8 Formulation as well prior to submitting a sBLA seeking the approval of the F8 Formulation. This study is expected to be completed after the EGRIFTA SV® HFS.
We now plan on filing an sBLA with the FDA seeking the approval of the F8 Formulation in the fourth quarter of 2023 for the treatment of lipodystrophy in people living with HIV.
The F8 Formulation is also intended to be used in our Phase 2b/3 clinical trial studying tesamorelin for the treatment of NASH in the general population.
Multi-Dose Pen Injector
In the fiscal year 2021, we began developing the Pen intended to be used in conjunction with the F8 Formulation. To date, its development is not completed, and we are still assessing the feasibility. As a result, no timeline has been set for the development of the Pen.
Tesamorelin for NASH in the General Population
On September 10, 2020, we announced our intent to study tesamorelin for the potential treatment of NASH in the general population using the F8 Formulation. In November 2020, we filed an Investigational New Drug Application (IND) with the FDA for a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating tesamorelin for the treatment of NASH and we received a Study May Proceed letter for such Phase 3 clinical trial from the FDA in December 2020. The letter contained a recommendation that the Corporation requests a meeting to discuss the questions and comments contained in such letter to address certain aspects of the proposed trial design to ensure alignment with the agencys expectations with NASH trials. The Corporation followed up on the FDAs recommendation and requested a meeting with the agency. On July 15, 2021, we announced that we had completed discussions with the FDA following an end of Phase 2 meeting and with the EMA following a scientific advice meeting regarding the Phase 3 clinical trial in NASH.
In July 2021, we announced that the final Phase 3 clinical trial design would result in higher costs than what we had expected and, as a result, we were assessing our options to best execute this program, including seeking a potential partner.
We continue to see interest and momentum build in the NASH discussion space based on promising new industry data. Now that the BWFI supply issue has been resolved, we can confidently ensure potential partners that further development and the potential launch of a Phase 2b/3 NASH clinical trial would not be impeded by further supply issues. As of current, we continue to pursue potential NASH partners in the marketplace. We continue to maintain that the further development of Tesamorelin allows Theratechnologies to keep its positioning as one of the few options for drug developers to immediately partner with a company in order to launch a Phase 2b/3 NASH clinical trial.

Ibalizumab
Intramuscular Method of Administration of Trogarzo®
The Corporation has now completed the enrollment of all patients for this study and the study is completed. We are presently completing the analysis of the data related thereto. The study consisted of assessing the safety and pharmacokinetic levels of Trogarzo® when administered intramuscularly using a syringe. We expect to file a sBLA with the FDA seeking the approval of the intramuscular method of administration in the course of the 2023 fiscal year.
Sudocetaxel Zendusortide (TH1902) Phase 1 Clinical Trial
In March 2021, we initiated our Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating TH1902 for the treatment of cancers where the sortilin receptor is expressed. The Phase 1 clinical trial design included a Part A dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, maximum tolerated dose (the MTD) and preliminary anti-tumor activity of TH1902 administered once every three weeks in patients with advanced solid tumors refractory to available anti-cancer therapies. Part B of the Phase 1 clinical trial, also known as the basket trial consisted in recruiting a total of approximately 70 patients to study the safety and tolerability of TH1902 in the following various solid tumor types, including HR+ breast cancer, triple negative breast cancer, ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, melanoma, thyroid cancer, small cell lung cancer, and prostate cancer. As per the study protocol, the MTD is established once a significant adverse event is observed in two or more patients.
Part A of the Phase 1 clinical trial was completed in the summer of 2022. We then reported that a total of 18 heavily pre-treated patients, who received an average of eight prior cancer treatments, were enrolled in the dose escalation portion of the study. Following the safety observations at 420 mg/m2 including grade 3 neuropathy, grade 4 neutropenia, grade 3 ocular changes (visual acuity, keratitis and ocular surface dryness) and grade 2 skin toxicities (rash, pruritis and inflammation), the dose of TH1902 was decreased to 300 mg/m2 for the next dose level and was expanded to a total of six patients. No dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed during the first cycle, therefore, the dose of 300 mg/m2 was selected for continuation of the basket trial.
In addition, we reported that the levels of free docetaxel were low, at only 11% of those observed at docetaxel treatment dosage of 75 mg/m2. 300 mg/m2 appeared to be a well-tolerated dose level. We further reported the observation of signs of efficacy in three heavily pretreated patients.
Following the determination of the MTD, we began enrolling patients in the basket trial. In December 2022, we decided to voluntarily pause the enrollment of patients and revisit the study design of our clinical trial studying TH1902 in various types of cancer. The decision was made after consulting with our investigators. The efficacy results observed were not convincing enough to pursue the enrollment of patients and did not outweigh the adverse events seen in some patients.

In 2023, the Company commenced the use of sudocetaxel zendusortide in reference to TH1902. Sudocetaxel zendusortide is the generic name assigned by the International Non-Proprietary Names for TH1902.
Recent Highlights:
Sudocetaxel Zendusortide (TH1902) Development Pathway
On December 1, 2022, Theratechnologies announced the decision to voluntarily pause the enrollment of patients in its Phase 1 clinical trial of TH1902, the Companys lead investigational peptide drug conjugate (PDC) for the treatment of sortilin-expressing cancers.
Following the voluntary pause, the Company formed a Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) to help determine the best developmental path forward for TH1902. A meeting was held on March 22, with several medical oncologists from across the United States, who are leading experts in the end-to-end lifecycle of oncology drug development.
Theratechnologies presented the pre-clinical and clinical data gathered thus far to the SAC, which made recommendations to modify the frequency of administration, selection of tumor types and criteria for patient selection to further improve our chances of a successful outcome. The Company is finalizing adjustments to the protocol and aims to submit to the FDA before end of April.
Consistent with the Companys 2023 objective of generating positive Adjusted EBITDA by fiscal year end, any new investments in TH1902 will be stage-gated. Once the Phase 1 clinical trial has resumed, Theratechnologies will also evaluate potential partnerships for TH1902.
Amendment to Term Loan Facility with Affiliates of Marathon Asset Management
On February 28th, the Company announced that it entered into a first amendment to its credit agreement dated July 20, 2022 (the Loan Facility) with certain funds and accounts for which Marathon Asset Management, L.P. acts as investment manager (collectively, Marathon).
The Company and Marathon agreed to amend the terms of the Loan Facility by removing the condition related to the submission to the FDA of its human factors study (HFS) related to EGRIFTA SV® in order to access a US$20 million second tranche of the Loan Facility, and by allowing the inclusion of a going concern explanatory paragraph in the auditors report to shareholders for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022, without triggering an event of default.
The amendments were entered into in consideration of the issuance of an aggregate of 5,000,000 common share purchase warrants (the Marathon Warrants) to Marathon. Each Marathon Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $1.45 per share until February 27, 2030.

Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI)
On February 22, Theratechnologies announced a presentation at the 30th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI), highlighting new Tesamorelin data demonstrating improvement of metabolic syndrome in people with HIV. The presentation demonstrated association between excess visceral abdominal fat reduction and decreased prevalence of metabolic syndrome with tesamorelin treatment. These data provided further evidence of potential utility of tesamorelin in addressing metabolic syndrome and complements research in fatty liver diseases.
American Association for Cancer Research (AACR)
On March 14, subsequent to the end of the first quarter, Theratechnologies announced that it will have three presentations at the annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) on April 18, 2023. These new data, to be presented in three poster sessions highlight a synergistic effect of TH1902 in combination with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), checkpoint inhibitor therapy in a melanoma mouse model; high expression of the sortilin (SORT1) receptor in multiple tumor types compared to healthy tissues; and the rationale for using TH1902 as a potential therapeutic approach in SORT1-positive triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and HER2-positive breast cancers.

First Quarter Fiscal 2023 Financial Results
Revenue
Consolidated revenue for the three months ended February 28, 2023, amounted to $19,908,000 compared to $18,557,000 for the same period last year, representing an increase of 7.3%.
For the first quarter of Fiscal 2023, sales of EGRIFTA SV® reached $12,711,000 compared to $11,704,000 in the first quarter of the prior year, representing an increase of 8.6%. Growth in sales of EGRIFTA SV® was mostly the result of increased unit sales and a higher net selling price but were offset by greater rebates to government payers.
In the first quarter of Fiscal 2023, Trogarzo® sales amounted to $7,197,000 compared to $6,853,000 for the same quarter of 2022, representing an increase of 5.0%. Trogarzo® unit sales in the first quarter of 2023 were up marginally and were positively impacted by a higher net selling price and more favorable government rebates and chargebacks.
Cost of Sales
For the three-month period ended February 28, 2023, cost of sales was $4,693,000 compared to $6,099,000 in the comparable period of Fiscal 2022. In the first quarter of 2022, cost of sales included an amortization charge of $1,221,000 in connection with the settlement of the future obligation which has been accounted as Other asset on the consolidated statement of the financial position. The Other asset was fully amortized during the first half of Fiscal 2022, and thus this charge was Nil in the first quarter of Fiscal 2023.
Cost of goods sold decreased to $4,693,000 compared to $4,878,000 for the same period last year. Cost of goods sold for the first quarter of last year was higher because of an adjustment to the cost of goods sold for Trogarzo in Europe related to the provision for rebates to the French government.

R&D Expenses
R&D expenses in the three-month period ended February 28, 2023 amounted to $9,356,000 compared to $8,003,000 in the comparable period of Fiscal 2022. The increase during the first quarter of Fiscal 2023 was largely due to expenses related to the production of the validation batches of BWFI ($536,000) and $838,000 in expenses related to the production of clinical batches of TH1902. Other project spending included the EGRIFTA SV® Human Factors Study and spending on the TH1902 Phase 1 trial.
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses in the three-month period ended February 28, 2023, amounted to $6,814,000 compared to $7,807,000 in the comparable period of Fiscal 2022 or a 12.7% decrease.
The decrease in selling expenses is largely associated to the decision to exit the European market in 2022 and is partially offset by higher spending in the United States.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses in the first quarter of Fiscal 2023 amounted to $4,452,000, compared to $4,368,000 reported in the same period of Fiscal 2022. The slight increase is due to an overall increase in activity to reflect the growth of our business in North America related to the on boarding of our field force during 2022 and is offset by lower spending in Europe.
Net Finance Costs
Net finance costs for the three-month period ended February 28, 2023, were $4,940,000 compared to $1,285,000 in the same period last year. The increase in net finance cost is mostly due to the loss on debt modification of $2,650,000 related to the issuance of the Marathon Warrants issued in connection to the amendments to the Credit Agreement as well as the higher interest expense on the companys outstanding long-term debt due to the new Loan Facility entered into in Q3 of Fiscal 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA was $(3,892,000) for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $(4,094,000) for the same period of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2023 was negatively affected by certain production costs, namely an expense related to the production of the validation batches of BWFI of $536,000, and $838,000 in expenses related to production batches of TH1902. See Non-IFRS and Non-US-GAAP Measure above and see Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA below for a reconciliation to Net Loss for the relevant periods.
Net loss
Taking into account the revenue and expense variations described above, we recorded a net loss of $10,443,000, or $0.11 per share, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2023 compared to a net loss of $9,032,000, or $0.09 per share, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2022.

Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Going Concern Uncertainty
As part of the preparation of the interim financial statements, management is responsible for identifying any event or situation that may cast doubt on the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Substantial doubt regarding the Companys ability to continue as a going concern exists if events or conditions, considered collectively, indicate that the Company may be unable to honor its obligations as they fall due during a period of at least, but not limited to, 12 months from February 28, 2023. If the Company concludes that events or conditions cast substantial doubt on its ability to continue as a going concern, it must assess whether the plans developed to mitigate these events or conditions will remove any possible substantial doubt.
For the three-month period ended February 28, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $10,443,000 (2022 $9,032,000) and had positive operating cash flows of $2,361,000 (2022 - $42,000). The Companys total current liabilities exceeded total current assets at February 28, 2023. The Companys outstanding $27,467,000 convertible unsecured senior notes mature in June 2023 (refer to Note 7 of the Interim Financial Statements) requiring the Company to use its cash balance and draw the Tranche 2 Loan (as defined in Note 18 of the annual consolidated financial statements as at November 30, 2022) of its term loan facility available (the Loan Facility) to repay the principal and the interest thereon. The Loan Facility is available in four tranches and contains various covenants, including minimum liquidity covenants whereby the Company needs to maintain significant cash, cash equivalent and eligible short-term investments balances in specified accounts, which restricts the management of the Companys liquidity (refer to notes 18 and 24 of the annual consolidated financial statements as at November 30, 2022). There are also operational milestones and required revenue targets in order for the Company to comply with the conditions of the Loan Facility or to be able to borrow money forming part of the various tranches.
The Companys ability to continue as a going concern for period of at least, but not limited to, 12 months from February 28, 2023 involves significant judgement and is dependent on its ability to increase revenues and manage expenses to generate sufficient positive cash flows from operations and/or find alternative source of funding to respect all the various covenants of its Loan Facility, including obtaining the approval from the FDA for its F8 Formulation of tesamorelin on or before March 31, 2024, and/or to obtain the continued support of its lender. On February 27, 2023, the lender removed the condition related to the submission to the FDA of the results from the human factors validation study by no later than June 30, 2023, in order to access the Tranche 2 Loan under the Loan Facility (refer to Note 30 of the annual consolidated financial statements as at November 30, 2022). Management believes its plans will comply with all of the other various covenants of the Loan Facility to draw the Tranche 2 Loan, repay all the convertible unsecured senior notes due June 30, 2023 and to comply with the covenants for the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that managements plans will be realized since some elements of these plans are outside of managements control and cannot be predicted at this time. Should managements plans not materialize, the Company may be forced to reduce or delay expenditures and capital additions, seek additional financing through the issuance of equity or obtain from the lender waivers of these covenants, if available. Raising additional equity capital is subject to market conditions. As a result, there is material uncertainty related to events or conditions that cast substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.

Furthermore, the Loan Facility includes a covenant prohibiting having a going concern explanatory paragraph in the annual report of the independent registered public accounting firm but the lender amended the Loan Facility on February 27, 2023 to exclude the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022. The term loan has been reclassified from current at November 30, 2022 to long-term at February 28, 2023 as a result of the waiver received within the first quarter. There is no assurance that the lender will agree to amend or to waive potential future covenant breaches, if any.
The interim financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the Company will continue its operations in the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities and reported expenses that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty and that may be necessary if the going concern basis was not appropriate for these interim financial statements. If the Company was unable to continue as a going concern, material impairment of the carrying values of the Companys assets, including intangible assets, could be required.
Analysis of cash flows
We ended the first quarter of fiscal 2023 with $29,156,000 in cash, bonds and money market funds. Available cash is invested in highly liquid fixed income instruments including governmental and municipal bonds, and money market funds.
The Company voluntarily changed its accounting policy in Fiscal 2022 to classify interest paid and received as part of cash flows from operating activities, which were previously classified as cash flow from financing activities and interest received as cash flows from investing activities. The Fiscal 2022 amounts presented herein have been recasted to reflect the change in policy.
For the three-month period ended February 28, 2023, cash used in operating activities was relatively stable at $3,339,000, compared to $5,690,000 in the comparable period of Fiscal 2022.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, changes in operating assets and liabilities had a positive impact on cash flow of $2,361,000 (2022-positive impact of $42,000). These changes included a positive impact from lower accounts receivable ($2,085,000), a decrease in inventories ($4,578,000), lower prepaid expenses ($1,644,000) and deposits and also include a negative impact from lower accounts payable ($6,545,000). The decrease in inventories is mainly due to a planned reduction of Trogarzo® inventory levels.
During Fiscal 2022, the Company realized net proceeds from the issuance of a long-term loan of $37,715,000. We also received net proceeds for the issuance of common stock to an institutional investor in the amount of $2,871,000 under its ATM program. Significant uses of cash for financing activities during Fiscal 2022 included the purchase of convertible notes for $28,819,000 (including costs related to the purchase), and $1,527,000 in deferred financing costs related to the establishment of the Loan Facility.
Theratechnologies Inc. 2015 Peel Street, 11th Floor Montreal, Québec H3A 1T8 |

On January 19, 2021, the Company completed a public offering for the sale and issuance of 16,727,900 units of the Company for a gross cash consideration of $46,002,000 including the full exercise of the over-allotment option. Share issue costs of $3,394,000 resulted in net proceeds of $42,608,000.
Each unit is comprised of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a Public Offering Warrant). Each Public Offering Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $3.18 until January 19, 2024.
During the first quarter of 2023, cash used in investing activities included $222,000 for the acquisition of research equipment, and financing activities used $162,000 in cash.

Factors Affecting the Variability of Financial Results
There are quarter-over-quarter variations in net sales revenue, principally due to changes in distributor inventory levels with some additional impact from time to time related to average net selling price, which is affected by changes in the mix of private payors versus government drug reimbursement plans.

Recent Changes in Accounting Standards
Standards issued but not yet effective
Refer to Note 2 of the Interim Financial Statements for changes in accounting policy, new standard adopted and standard issued but not yet effective.
Outstanding Securities Data
As at February 28, 2023, the number of common shares issued and outstanding was 96,806,299, we also had 8,130,550 Warrants and 5,000,000 Marathon Warrants issued and outstanding, while outstanding options granted under our stock option plan amounted to 9,131,243. We also had $27,500,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes due June 30, 2023 issued and outstanding as a result of the public offering of those notes closed on June 19, 2018. These notes are convertible into common shares at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $14.85, representing a conversion rate of approximately 67.3401 common share per $1,000 principal amount of notes. The conversion of all of the outstanding notes would result in the issuance of 1,851,852 common shares.
Contractual Obligations
On February 28th, the Company announced that it entered into a first amendment to its Loan Facility.
The Company and Marathon agreed to amend the terms of the Loan Facility by removing the condition related to the submission to the FDA of its HFS related to EGRIFTA SV® in order to access a US$20 million second tranche of the Loan Facility, and by allowing the inclusion of a going concern note in the auditors report to shareholders for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022 without triggering an event of default.
The amendment was entered into in consideration of the issuance of the Marathon Warrants.
Internal Control
The Company identified a material weakness as at November 30, 2022 in the Companys process level controls relating to the documentation of the analysis and relating to the monitoring of certain conditions and covenants included in a financing arrangement. This control failure caused ineffective controls over the assessment of going concern uncertainty, including the underlying financial data and assumptions supporting the forecasted financial information utilized to prepare projected cash flows and liquidity requirements to comply with some of the covenants in such financing arrangement. Refer to our annual MD&A for additional details.
Our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated, or caused the evaluation of, under their direct supervision, the design of the Companys internal control over financial reporting, as defined under National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure as at February 28, 2023. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of February 28, 2023 as the controls related to the above-described material weakness have not yet been adequately remediated.
Theratechnologies Inc. 2015 Peel Street, 11th Floor Montreal, Québec H3A 1T8 |
16 |
The Companys management team has begun remediating the ineffective controls related to the above-described material weakness. The material weaknesses will not be considered fully remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company worked on a remediation plan and began implementing new internal controls to remediate this material weakness. We expect to complete the implementation of these new controls by the end of the second quarter of 2023 and test their effectiveness in the third and fourth quarters of 2023.
Other than the remediation efforts disclosed above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period from December 1st, 2022 to February 28, 2023 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
