IMPRIMIS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and the period from July 24, 1998 (Inception) through June 30, 2013

NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Company and Background

Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Imprimis”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the commercial development of compounded drug formulations. Imprimis expects to use its proprietary Accudel™ drug delivery technologies, proprietary drug formulations, and its exclusive relationship with Professional Compounding Centers of America, Inc. (“PCCA”), to identify pharmaceutical development opportunities where there are significant unmet medical needs.

The Company’s most near term drug candidate, Impracor™, utilizes its patented Accudel topical cream formulation to enable highly targeted site-specific treatment. Impracor, which is a Phase 3 clinical trial pain product candidate, delivers the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), through the skin directly into the underlying tissues where the drug exerts its localized anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

Basis of Presentation

On February 28, 2012, the Company changed its name from Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. All prior references to Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. have been changed to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to reflect the change. On February 28, 2012, the Company effected a one-for-eight reverse stock split and on February 7, 2013, the Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split. All share and per share amounts and calculations in this report reflect the effects of these reverse stock splits.

Imprimis has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Principles of Consolidation

On September 17, 2007, Imprimis entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Imprimis, Transdel Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc., a privately held Nevada corporation (“Transdel Holdings”), and Trans-Pharma Acquisition Corp., a newly formed, wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of Imprimis (“Acquisition Sub”). Upon closing of the merger transaction contemplated under the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), Acquisition Sub merged with and into Transdel Holdings, and Transdel Holdings, as the surviving corporation, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Imprimis. As a result of the Merger, the former owners of Transdel Holdings became the controlling stockholders of Imprimis. Accordingly, the merger of Transdel Holdings and Imprimis is a reverse merger that has been accounted for as a recapitalization of Transdel Holdings.

Effective on September 17, 2007, and for all reporting periods thereafter, Imprimis’ operating activities, including any prior comparative period, include only those of Transdel Holdings. All references to share and per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been restated to reflect the aforementioned share exchange. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On June 20, 2011, Transdel Holdings was merged with Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., at which time Transdel Holdings ceased as a corporation, and Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. remains as the sole surviving corporation.

5

Development Stage Enterprise

The Company is a development stage company as defined under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance. All losses accumulated since inception have been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.

These condensed consolidated financial statements contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is a development stage enterprise and has incurred recurring operating losses, has had negative operating cash flows and has not recognized any significant revenues since July 24, 1998 (Inception). In addition, the Company has a deficit accumulated during the development stage of approximately $27.8 million at June 30, 2013, and anticipates incurring further losses through the remainder of the fiscal year 2013 and beyond. The Company has not yet generated significant sales revenue and has funded its operating losses to date through debt and equity offerings and borrowings under its line of credit. The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to cover its cash flow requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Intellectual Property

The costs of acquiring intellectual property rights to be used in the research and development process, including licensing fees and milestone payments, are charged to research and development expense as incurred in situations where we have not identified an alternative future use for the acquired rights, and are capitalized in situations where it has identified an alternative future use. No costs associated with acquiring intellectual property rights have been capitalized to date. Costs of maintaining intellectual property rights are expensed as incurred.

Research and Development

The Company expenses all costs related to research and development as they are incurred. Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities including salaries and benefits, and other overhead expenses, clinical trials, contract services and outsourced contracts.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

The Company will recognize revenues when all of the following criteria have been met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company believes it will not generate significant revenues until one or more of its drug candidates are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Company is able to commercialize one or more of its product candidates. Also, effective sales and marketing support must be in place for either the drug candidates or any other products the Company may develop in order to generate any revenues. The FDA approval process is highly uncertain and the Company cannot estimate when it will generate revenues at this time from sales of its products.

Product Revenues

Determination of criteria (3) and (4) will be based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or for which services have not been rendered or are subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or services have been rendered or no refund will be required.

License Revenues

License arrangements may consist of non-refundable upfront license fees, data transfer fees, research reimbursement payments, exclusive licensed rights to patented or patent pending compounds, technology access fees, and various performance or sales milestones. These arrangements can be multiple element arrangements.

Non-refundable, up-front fees that are not contingent on any future performance by us, and require no consequential continuing involvement on our part, are recognized as revenue when the license term commences and the licensed data, technology and/or compound is delivered. Such deliverables may include physical quantities of compounds, design of the compounds and structure-activity relationships, the conceptual framework and mechanism of action, and rights to the patents or patents pending for such compounds. We defer recognition of non-refundable upfront fees if we have continuing performance obligations without which the technology, right, product or service conveyed in conjunction with the non-refundable fee has no utility to the licensee that is separate and independent of our performance under the other elements of the arrangement. In addition, if we have required continuing involvement through research and development services that are related to our proprietary know-how and expertise of the delivered technology, or can only be performed by us, then such up-front fees are deferred and recognized over the period of continuing involvement. Guaranteed minimum annual royalties are recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term.

6

During three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded $2,500 and $5,000 in revenues, respectively, for non-refundable royalty advances. In January 2013, the Company entered into a license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC granting resolutionMD, LLC rights to its Accudel delivery technology to be used for anti-cellulite formulations. Under the license agreement, the Company will receive $10,000 as a guaranteed minimum royalty amount for fiscal 2013 and, if applicable, additional royalty payments based on a percent (generally, 5%-7%) of net sales of any products covered under the license agreement. The license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC, unless terminated earlier, has a term of ten years following the first commercial sale of a product that is covered under the license agreement. The Company does not anticipate that the license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC will generate significant revenues for the 2013 fiscal year.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes”, or ASC 740. As of June 30, 2013, there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties in its condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and has not recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statements of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and California. The Company’s tax years for 2000 and forward are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities due to the carry forward of unutilized net operating losses.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company places its cash with financial institutions deemed by management to be of high credit quality. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides basic deposit coverage with limits to $250,000 per owner. At June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $17.7 million in cash deposits in excess of FDIC limits.

Deferred Offering Costs

On July 25, 2012, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) in connection with an underwritten public offering of its common stock (the “Public Offering”). At December 31, 2012, the Company had deferred offering costs of $596,281 for legal, accounting and other expenses directly related to the Public Offering. The Public Offering closed on February 13, 2013 (see Note 4), and these deferred offering costs and any other costs directly associated with the Public Offering subsequent to December 31, 2012 were netted against the cash proceeds to the Company arising from the Public Offering. As a result, there were no deferred offering costs at June 30, 2013.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of three to five years.

Deferred Rent

The Company accounts for rent expense related to its operating leases by determining total minimum rent payments on the leases over their respective periods and recognizing the rent expense on a straight-line basis. The difference between the actual amount paid and the amount recorded as rent expense in each fiscal year is recorded as an adjustment to deferred rent.

7

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. GAAP establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The established fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:

● Level 1: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and must be used to measure fair value whenever available.

● Level 2: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

● Level 3: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. For example, level 3 inputs would relate to forecasts of future earnings and cash flows used in a discounted future cash flows method.

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities which are measured on a recurring basis. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, a restricted short-term investment, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued Phase 3 expenses and accrued payroll and related liabilities. The carrying amount of these financial instruments, except for the restricted short-term investment, approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company’s restricted short-term investment is carried at amortized cost which approximates fair value.

Stock-Based Compensation

All stock-based payments to employees, including grants of stock options to employees, directors and consultants, warrants and restricted stock grants, are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements based upon their fair values.

The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows FASB guidance. As such, the value of the applicable stock-based compensation is periodically remeasured and income or expense is recognized during their vesting terms. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is primarily recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. In accordance with FASB guidance, an asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, nonforfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor's balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company records the fair value of nonforfeitable equity instruments issued for future consulting services as prepaid consulting fees in its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company recorded stock-based compensation related to equity instruments granted to employees, directors and consultants as follows:

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, such as stock options and warrants outstanding during the period.

Basic and diluted net loss applicable to common stock per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents (using the treasury stock or, “if converted” method) from convertible notes, preferred stock, stock options, unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and warrants were 3,138,004 and 1,476,987 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share for all periods presented because the effect is anti-dilutive.

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted loss per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

	For The Three			For The Three			For The Six			For The Six

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management are, among others, the valuation of contributed services, deferred taxes and stock-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period items and amounts have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used to prepare the 2013 condensed consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as previously reported.

Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” ASU 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, with an option for early adoption. The Company intends to adopt this guidance at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal year 2014, and is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This pronouncement was issued to enhance disclosure requirements surrounding the nature of an entity’s right to offset and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. This new guidance requires companies to disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to master netting arrangements. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This pronouncement was issued to address implementation issues about the scope of ASU 2011-11 and to clarify the scope of the offsetting disclosures and address any unintended consequences. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-01 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. SHORT-TERM RESTRICTED INVESTMENT

Short-term restricted investment at June 30, 2013 consists of a certificate of deposit, which is classified as held-to-maturity. At June 30, 2013, the fair value of this investment approximated its amortized cost basis.

At June 30, 2013, the certificate of deposit of $50,034 was classified as a current asset. The certificate of deposit is required as collateral under the Company’s corporate credit card agreement and automatically renews every twelve months.

NOTE 4. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Common Stock

In connection with the Public Offering, after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on February 7, 2013, the Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split of its common stock and on February 8, 2013, the Company's common stock began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis. All information included in this Quarterly Report has been adjusted to reflect the effect of the one-for-five reverse stock split.

In February 2013, the Company issued 219 shares of common stock at a price of $4.00 per share. The shares of common stock were issued to net settle total common stock options to purchase 1,030 shares of common stock pursuant to a cashless exercise provision.

During February and March 2013, the Company made payments totaling $191 in connection with cancelled, fractional share amounts of common stock (35 common stock share equivalents) in connection with the reverse stock split effected February 7, 2013.

On February 13, 2013, the Company closed the underwritten Public Offering of 1,840,000 shares of its common stock at a per share price to the public of $5.25, and received net proceeds of $8,140,435 after deducting underwriter fees and commissions and other offering expenses. The underwriters also exercised their option to purchase an additional 276,000 shares of common stock from the Company at $5.25 per share to cover over-allotments on March 14, 2013. Net cash proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option were $1,316,116. On February 7, 2013, the Company entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with MDB Capital Group, LLC. As contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, at the closing of the Public Offering and the over-allotment exercise, the underwriters received warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 179,860 shares, or 8.5% of the number of shares sold in the offering (including 8.5% of shares sold pursuant to their over-allotment option). The Warrants are exercisable at $5.25 per share (100% of the price of the common stock sold in the offering), commencing on the effective date of the offering and expiring five years from the effective date of the offering.

During June 2013, the Company issued 33,333 restricted shares of common stock to Dr. Robert Kammer, a director, valued at $243,333, in consideration for consulting services provided during the year ended December 31, 2012 and through June 30, 2013.

During June 2013, the Company issued 40,000 shares of common stock to Mark Baum, the Company’s CEO and a director, related to vesting of restricted stock units (“RSUs”).

Preferred Stock

At June 30, 2013, the Company had 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value, authorized and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Stock Option Plan

On September 17, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the Company’s 2007 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan, which was subsequently amended on November 5, 2008, February 26, 2012, July 18, 2012 and May 2, 2013 (as amended, the “Plan”). As of June 30, 2013, the Plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of an aggregate of 2,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The purpose of the Plan is to provide an incentive to attract and retain directors, officers, consultants, advisors and employees whose services are considered valuable, to encourage a sense of proprietorship and to stimulate an active interest of such persons in the Company’s development and financial success. Under the Plan, the Company is authorized to issue incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock. The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

A summary of the Plan activity with respect to options to purchase common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:

	Number of shares			Weighted Avg. Exercise Price		Weighted Avg. Remaining Contractual Life		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Options outstanding - January 1, 2013		905,806		$	5.26
Options granted		519,353		$	6.95
Options exercised		(1,030	)	$	4.00
Options cancelled/forfeit		(151,500	)	$	10.91
Options outstanding - June 30, 2013		1,272,629		$	5.27		5.81	$	4,458,714
Options exercisable		648,888		$	4.15		4.87	$	3,044,856
Options vested and expected to vest		1,210,255		$	5.21		5.76	$	4,317,328

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax amount of the proceeds, net of exercise price, which would have been received by option holders if all option holders had exercised and immediately sold all options with an exercise price lower than the market price on June 28, 2013, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $8.48 on that date.

In April 2013, the Company granted options to employees of the Company to acquire 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Plan, each with an exercise price of $6.00, the current market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date. The options each have 10-year terms and vest quarterly over three years.

In April 2013, the Company granted options to an employee of the Company to acquire 51,675 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Plan. The options have an exercise price of $9.00, the current market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date, a 10-year term and vest over a three year period, such that 33% of the options vest on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 67% of the options vest quarterly in equal installments thereafter over two years.

In May 2013, the Company granted options to Mark Baum, its CEO, to acquire 180,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Plan, in accordance with the terms of the Company’s amended and restated employment agreement with Mr. Baum. The options have an exercise price of $8.99, the current market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date, a 10-year term and vest quarterly over three years.

The table below illustrates the fair value per share determined by the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions used for valuing options granted to employees:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Weighted-average fair value of options granted	$	6.90
Expected terms (in years)		5.8
Expected volatility		123%
Risk-free interest rate		0.86 %-1.00%
Dividend yield		-

Effective April 1, 2012, the Company entered into an advisory agreement with director Dr. Robert J. Kammer (the “Advisory Agreement”) pursuant to which Dr. Kammer provides certain services to the Company in addition to his services as a director, including, but not limited to, providing management and advice regarding the operations of the Company’s clinical trials and assistance in the identification of new drug delivery technologies. As part of Dr. Kammer’s compensation under the Advisory Agreement, the Company granted to Dr. Kammer on April 1, 2012 an option to purchase up to 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $4.50 per share under the Plan. The option terminates on March 31, 2017 and vests over a two year period, with 15,000 options vested immediately upon issuance and an additional 1,875 options vesting monthly for the next twenty four months thereafter. In accordance with accounting guidance for stock-based compensation to consultants, the unvested portion of the option will be remeasured on an interim basis until the termination of the Advisory Agreement. The Advisory Agreement will terminate on the earlier of the completion of the services or the second anniversary of the date of the agreement. As of June 30, 2013, the remeasured fair value of the unvested portion of the stock option, based on the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model, was $129,481.

12

On January 13, 2013, the Company entered into a statement of work agreement with a clinical development consultant (the “SOW Agreement”). In partial consideration for the services provided under the SOW Agreement, the Company issued an option to purchase up to 11,428 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $8.75 per share. The option will terminate on January 13, 2017 and vests over an eighteen month period, with approximately 635 options vesting monthly for eighteen months beginning in February 2013. The remeasured fair value of the unvested portion of the stock option as of June 30, 2013, based on the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, was $50,901.

In May 2013, the Company granted 25,000 options to a consultant with an exercise price of $8.90 equal to the current market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date. The options have a 3-year term and vest in full in August 2013, following completion of certain services. As of June 30, 2013, the remeasured fair value of the stock option, based on the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, was $145,773. The amount of unamortized stock-based compensation that has not been expensed related to the unvested option grant is $80,175.

In May 2013, Dr. Balbir Brar resigned as President, but concurrent with his resignation entered into a senior advisory consultant agreement that allowed for his options related to his service to the Company as President to continue vesting as long as he continued service to the Company as a consultant. His original option agreement was modified to allow for the vesting to continue as a result of his service to the Company as a consultant. The unvested portion of the options prior to his resignation were treated as cancelled as of the date of the modification and subsequently re-issued. As of June 30, 2013, the remeasured fair value of the unvested portion of the stock option, based on the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, was $808,591.

As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $3,133,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the Plan. That expense is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.13 years.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Prior to April 1, 2013, expected volatilities were based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock and other factors, and following April 1, 2013 the expected volatility is based on the historical volatilities of the common stock of comparable publicly traded companies based on the Company’s belief the it has significantly changed its business operations and focus, and as a result, it currently has limited relevant historical data regarding the volatility of its stock price on which to base a meaningful estimate of expected volatility. The expected term of options granted was determined in accordance with the “simplified approach” as the Company has limited, relevant, historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The expected risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. The financial statement effect of forfeitures is estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, if the actual effect differs from those estimates. For option grants to employees and directors, the Company assigns a forfeiture factor of 10%. These factors could change in the future, affecting the determination of stock-based compensation expense in future periods. Utilizing these assumptions, the fair value is determined at the date of grant.

The table below illustrates the fair value per share determined by the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions used for valuing options granted to consultants:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Weighted-average fair value of options granted	$	6.73
Expected terms (in years)		2.5-4.25
Expected volatility		116% - 372%
Risk-free interest rate		0.30%-1.04%
Dividend yield		-

The stock-based compensation for stock options was $461,166 and $801,396 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock unit, or RSU, awards are granted subject to certain restrictions, including performance and market based conditions. The grant-date fair value of the RSUs, which has been determined based upon the market value of the Company’s shares on the grant date, is expensed over the vesting period. Unvested portions of RSUs issued to consultants are remeasured on an interim basis until vesting criteria is met. On May 2, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company amended and restated the Plan to provide for the issuance of restricted stock units under the Plan.

On May 2, 2013, the Company entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with its CEO, Mark Baum. Among other things, the amended and restated employment agreement provides for the issuance of 1,250,000 RSUs to Mr. Baum, pursuant to the Plan. Of these RSUs, 200,000 vest on the third anniversary of the RSU grant based on continued service to the Company and the remaining 1,050,000 RSUs will vest based on the satisfaction of certain market-based and continued service conditions (the “Baum Performance Equity Award”). The Baum Performance Equity Award vest three years from the date of grant contingent upon the satisfaction of certain market-based vesting criteria during the three year period. The market-based vesting criteria are separated into five equal tranches and require that the Company achieves and maintains certain stock price targets ranging from $10 per share to $30 per share during the three year period following the grant date. With certain limited exceptions, Mr. Baum must be employed with the Company on the third anniversary of the grant date in order for the Baum Performance Equity Award to vest. These market-based vesting conditions are further described below:

Tranche	Number of Shares	Target Share Price
Tranche 1	19.05% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$10.00 or greater
Tranche 2	19.05% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$15.00 or greater
Tranche 3	19.05% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$20.00 or greater
Tranche 4	19.05% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$25.00 or greater
Tranche 5	23.80% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$30.00 or greater

14

For each respective tranche to vest the following conditions must be met: (i) the Company’s common stock must have an official closing price at or above the Target Share Price for the respective tranche (each such date, a “Trigger Date”); (ii) during the period that includes the Trigger Date and the immediately following 19 trading days (the “Measurement Period”), the arithmetic mean of the 20 closing prices of the Company’s common stock during the Measurement Period must be at or above the Target Share Price for such tranche; and (iii) with certain limited exceptions, Mr. Baum must be in continuous service with the Company through the third anniversary of the grant date. Any unvested RSUs under the Baum Performance Equity Award will be forfeited on the third anniversary of the grant date.

Under the terms of the employment agreement with Mr. Baum, the earning and issuance of any shares under the Baum Performance Equity Award that would exceed the number of shares available for grant and/or the applicable annual per person grant limit for performance-based restricted stock units under the Plan are subject to approval by the Board of Directors and the Company’s stockholders of an increase in the number of shares available for grant and the applicable annual per person grant limit for performance-based restricted stock units under the Plan. The Board approved such increases on May 2, 2013. The current per person grant limit under the Plan for grants of performance-based restricted stock units is 600,000 shares. As a result, if such an amendment to the Plan is not approved by the Company’s stockholders, Mr. Baum will only be entitled to receive a maximum of 600,000 RSUs pursuant to the Baum Performance Equity Award. Effective upon approval of a Plan amendment by the Company’s stockholders and subsequent grant of the remaining 450,000 RSUs pursuant to the Baum Performance Equity Award, Mr. Baum has agreed to cancel 120,000 unvested RSUs previously granted to him in July 2012.

The initial fair value of the 200,000 RSUs and 600,000 RSUs pursuant to the Baum Performance Equity Award granted to Mr. Baum was $3,515,090 and as of June 30, 2013, the amount of unamortized stock based compensation that has not been expensed related to the unvested RSUs grants is $3,329,796. The 600,000 RSUs pursuant to the Baum Performance Equity Award were valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation with a three year life, 75% volatility and a risk free interest rate of 0.30%.

On May 24, 2013, the Company granted 100,000 RSUs to a consultant that will vest based on the satisfaction of certain market-based conditions subject to the consultant’s continued service, among other things. These market-based vesting conditions are further described below:

Tranche	Number of Shares	Target Share Price
Tranche 1	20,000 shares	$10.00 or greater
Tranche 2	20,000 shares	$15.00 or greater
Tranche 3	20,000 shares	$20.00 or greater
Tranche 4	20,000 shares	$25.00 or greater
Tranche 5	20,000 shares	$30.00 or greater

For each respective tranche to vest the following conditions must be met: (i) the Company’s common stock must have an official closing price at or above the Target Share Price for the respective tranche (each such date a “Trigger Date”); (ii) during the period that includes the Trigger Date and the immediately following 19 trading days (the “Measurement Period”), the arithmetic mean of the 20 closing prices during the Measurement Period must be at or above the Target Share Price for such tranche ((i) and (ii), the “Stock Price Conditions”); and (iii) with certain limited exceptions, 50% of the RSUs subject to a tranche will vest on the quarterly anniversary of the grant date following the satisfaction of the Stock Price Conditions with respect to that tranche, subject to the consultant being in continuous service with the Company on such quarterly anniversary and the remaining 50% shall vest on the second anniversary of the grant date if (a) the Stock Price Conditions have been satisfied with respect to that tranche prior to the second anniversary of the grant date and (b) the consultant is and has been in continuous service with the Company on the second anniversary of the grant date. All unvested RSUs will be forfeited on the second anniversary of the grant date.

15

The initial value of the 100,000 RSUs with market-based vesting conditions granted to the consultant was $288,000, and as of June 30, 2013 the remeasured fair value of those RSUs was $203,520. The amount of unamortized stock-based compensation that has not been expensed related to the unvested RSU grant is $195,040. The 100,000 RSUs are valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation with a 2 year life (based on the grant date), 80% volatility and risk free interest rates of 0.26%-0.36%.

In June 2013, the Board of Directors approved a one-time grant of 6,865 RSUs (34,325 RSUs total) to non-employee directors with an aggregate fair value of $271,854. The RSUs vest in full 13 months from the date of grant subject to the director being in continuous service with the Company. Once vesting conditions have been achieved, the RSUs will remain restricted until the directors resign.

A summary of the Company’s RSU activity and related information for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:

	Number of RSUs			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
RSUs outstanding - January 1, 2013		200,000		$	3.25
RSUs granted		934,325		$	4.36
RSUs vested		(40,000	)	$	3.25
RSUs cancelled		-			-
Balance at June 30, 2013		1,094,325		$	4.20

On July 18, 2012, a consultant was issued RSUs (40,000 shares) valued at $130,000, and as of June 30, 2013, the remeasured fair value of those RSUs was $339,200.

As of June 30, 2013, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSUs (including the 600,000 Baum PSUs authorized under the Plan) was approximately $4,189,000 (including recognized and unrecognized expenses of the remeasured fair value of consultant RSUs) which are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.49 years, based on estimated vesting schedules. The stock-based compensation for RSU’s was $302,094 and $297,019 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.

Warrants

From time to time, the Company issues warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to investors, note holders, underwriters and to non-employees for services rendered or to be rendered in the future.

In February 2013, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 30,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to a consultant with an exercise price of $5.25 per share. The warrants expire three years following the issuance date, and vest as follows: 10,000 shares vested immediately upon execution of the consulting agreement, and the remaining shares will vest evenly (4,000 shares) on each of the five monthly periods following the date of the consulting agreement provided the consultant continues to provide services to the Company as of the applicable vesting date.

16

A summary of the activity of the warrants for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:

	Number of Shares Subject to Warrants Outstanding			Weighted Avg. Exercise Price
Warrants outstanding - January 1, 2013		556,872		$	7.66
Granted		209,860		$	5.25
Exercised		-
Expired		(5,682	)	$	176.00

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

In April 2013, the Company entered into a lease agreement for 3,874 square feet of office space from May 1, 2013 to September 30, 2016, effective May 1, 2013. Monthly rent began on May 1, 2013 in the amount of $10,406, with a 3% increase in the base rent amount on an annual basis. The lease agreement allows for the monthly rent amount to be abated for five months at various times during the lease agreement. The total lease obligation is approximately $387,900. For the remaining fiscal year 2013, the Company’s lease commitment is approximately $62,400.

The Company also leases an office facility under a noncancelable operating lease, which expires on February 28, 2014, with $3,715 due monthly until expiration. For the remaining fiscal year 2013, the Company’s lease commitment is approximately $22,300.

Indemnities and Guarantees

In addition to the indemnification provisions contained in the Company’s charter documents, the Company generally enters into separate indemnification agreements with the Company’s directors and officers. These agreements require the Company, among other things, to indemnify the director or officer against specified expenses and liabilities, such as attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlements, paid by the individual in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the individual’s status or service as the Company’s director or officer, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct or conduct that is knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, and to advance expenses incurred by the individual in connection with any proceeding against the individual with respect to which the individual may be entitled to indemnification by the Company. The Company also indemnifies its lessor in connection with its facility lease for certain claims arising from the use of the facility. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

PCCA License Agreement

Professional Compounding Centers of America, or PCCA, has granted to the Company and its affiliates certain exclusive rights under PCCA’s proprietary formulations, other technologies and data, and the Company has agreed to pay to PCCA certain royalties on net sales relating to the sale of certain future products, which royalties range from 4.5% to 9% for each product, subject to certain minimum royalty payments. PCCA may terminate the PCCA License Agreement if the Company fails to commence efforts to research and develop future products within certain time periods, as set forth in the PCCA License Agreement.

PCCA Strategic Alliance Agreement

On February 18, 2013, we entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “Agreement”) with PCCA. Under the Agreement, PCCA has agreed that during the term of the Agreement, it will not introduce any of PCCA’s members or customers meeting certain criteria (the “Member/Customers”) to any third party whereby such third party licenses or otherwise acquires the intellectual property rights of such Member/Customer, without first presenting such an opportunity to the Company. PCCA may, but is not required to, present such opportunities to the Company, use reasonable efforts to facilitate an introductory meeting between the Member/Customer and the Company, and to further provide certain key technical assistance to a potential development project associated with the Member/Customer’s intellectual property rights. In the event the Company and a Member/Customer introduced to the Company by PCCA enter into a commercial agreement for the license or acquisition of the intellectual property rights owned by the Member/Customer, PCCA will be entitled to receive certain cash fees up to an aggregate of $100,000, as well as a commission based on net sales, if any, generated by the Company as a result of the acquired intellectual property rights. The Agreement has a term of one year and is automatically extended for successive one year periods unless either party gives the other written notice of non-renewal.

18

Buderer Asset Purchase Agreement

On June 11, 2013, we acquired intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from the compounding pharmacy operations of Buderer Drug Company, Inc. (“Buderer”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”). In addition, the Company has a right of first refusal on additional Buderer intellectual property and drug development opportunities. The APA provides that Buderer will cooperate with the Company in obtaining patent protection for the acquired intellectual property and that the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop and commercialize a product based on the acquired intellectual property.

In consideration for the acquisition of the intellectual property rights, the Company is obligated to make the following payments to Buderer: (1) one payment payable within 30 days after the issuance of the first patent in the United States arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (2) one payment payable within 30 days after the Company files the first Investigational New Drug application (“IND”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the first product arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); and (3) certain royalty payments based on the net receipts received by the Company in connection with the sale or licensing of any product based on the acquired intellectual property (if any), after deducting (among other things) the Company’s development costs associated with such product. If the Company does not file an IND for any product based on the acquired intellectual property within five years of the date of the APA, Buderer may terminate the agreement and the Company shall re-assign the acquired technology to Buderer.

NOTE 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has performed an evaluation of events occurring subsequent to June 30, 2013 through the filing date of this Quarterly Report. Based on our evaluation, nothing other than the events described below need to be disclosed.

In July 2013, the Company issued warrants to purchase 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to a consultant with an exercise price of $8.50 per share. The warrants become exercisable on January 20, 2014 and expire five years following the issuance date.

In August 2013, we were notified by our manufacturing supplier, DPT Laboratories, LTD. (“DPT”) of preliminary stability test results related to clinical materials of active and placebo bulk batches of Impracor to be used in planned Phase 3 clinical trials, which were manufactured at DPT’s San Antonio, Texas facility.  The preliminary test results revealed an out of specification result for the placebo formulation and a lower than expected specification result for the active formulation.  Shortly thereafter, a retest was performed, which confirmed the out of specification results for the placebo batch and revealed continued decreasing stability results related to the active batch.  On August 9, 2013, we reported that we had concluded that due to the decreasing stability results for the active batch, packaging of the materials would be put on hold, as further decrease in stability levels was likely and would result in the material being unusable for the upcoming planned Impracor clinical trials.  We are evaluating our options regarding the Impracor clinical program as a result of these manufacturing issues, which could include re-manufacturing the clinical materials at DPT’s facilities, which would result in a delay of the our planned clinical trials by at least one to two months, or moving the formulation and manufacturing process to another third party vendor, which could cause a delay of up to six months.

Novel Drug and Eye Care Northwest Asset Purchase Agreement

On August 8, 2013, we acquired intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from the compounding pharmacy operations of Novel Drug Solutions, LLC and from Eye Care Northwest, Inc. (together referred to as the “Sellers”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Novel APA”).  As part of this acquisition we have acquired intellectual property assets, including a provisional patent application related to injectable ophthalmological compositions having anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties for the prevention of post-ophthalmic surgery complications.  In addition, under the Novel APA, we have a right of first refusal on any of the Sellers’ additional intellectual property and drug development opportunities.  The Novel APA provides that the Sellers will cooperate with us in obtaining patent protection for the acquired intellectual property, among other things, and that we will use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop and commercialize a product based on the acquired intellectual property.

In consideration for the acquisition, we are obligated to make the following payments to the Sellers:  (1) one payment payable within 30 days after the issuance of the first patent in the United States arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (2) one payment payable within 30 days after we file the first IND with the FDA for the first product arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (3) one payment payable within 30 days after we file the first New Drug application with the FDA for the first product; and (4) certain royalty payments based on the net receipts received by us in connection with the sale or licensing of any product based on the acquired intellectual property (if any), after deducting (among other things) our development costs associated with such product.   If we do not file an IND for any product based on the acquired intellectual property within five years of the date of the Novel APA, the Sellers may terminate the Novel APA and we must re-assign the acquired technology to the Sellers.

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 in conjunction with our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. The information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is not a complete description of our business or the risks associated with an investment in our common stock. We urge you to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this Quarterly Report and in our other reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and subsequent reports on Form 8-K, which discuss our business in greater detail. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” in this Item 2 and elsewhere in this report refer to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements regarding future events and our future performance. These forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or projected. For this purpose, any statements contained herein regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, future revenues, projected costs and expenses, prospects, plans and objectives of management, other than statements of historical facts, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believes,” “estimates,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Such statements reflect our current views with respect to future events. There are a number of important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those disclosed in the expressed or implied forward-looking statements we make. These important factors include the success of the design and execution of our clinical trials; our ability to research and successfully develop our product candidates; our ability to raise capital; the cost of any capital we are able to raise; our ability to hire, retain and otherwise engage qualified personnel to execute our business plan; our ability to continue as a going concern; our limited operating history; the ability of competitors to access the market we intend to serve; the ongoing market need for the technologies and products we are developing; and the other risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report and in similar discussions in our other SEC filings. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or publicly update any forward-looking statement for any reason. Readers should not rely on any of our forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report.

Unless otherwise stated below, all information regarding share amounts of common stock and prices per share of common stock described under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” reflect the one-for-five reverse stock split effected on February 7, 2013.

Overview

We are a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the commercial development of compounded drug formulations. We expect to use our proprietary Accudel drug delivery technologies, proprietary drug formulations, and market data obtained through our exclusive relationship with Professional Compounding Centers of America, Inc. (“PCCA”), the largest compounding pharmacy organization in North America, to identify pharmaceutical development opportunities where there are significant unmet medical needs. We expect to utilize the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (the “FDA”) 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway in connection with any drug development opportunities we may pursue.

 Our most near term drug candidate, Impracor, utilizes our patented Accudel topical cream formulation to enable highly targeted site-specific treatment. Impracor, which is a Phase 3 clinical trial pain product candidate, delivers the active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”), ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (“NSAID”), through the skin directly into the underlying tissues where the drug exerts its localized anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

We are in the process of reviewing and analyzing our in-licensed or acquired development assets and expect to begin assessing potential internal development projects involving product development candidates from the PCCA relationship in the third quarter of 2013, while at the same time seeking partnerships and out-licensing opportunities for projects that are better suited to be developed by third parties.

On February 28, 2012, we changed our name from Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. All prior references to Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. have been changed to Imprimis to reflect our current name.

 On February 28, 2012, we effected a one-for-eight reverse split of our authorized, issued and outstanding common stock, and on February 7, 2013 we effected a one-for-five reverse split of our authorized, issued and outstanding common stock. The information in this Form 10-Q and the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of those reverse stock splits.

20

We have incurred recurring operating losses, have had negative operating cash flows and have not recognized any significant revenues since July 24, 1998 (inception). In addition, we have a deficit accumulated during the development stage of approximately $27.8 million at June 30, 2013. We have not generated commercial sales revenue from any of our product candidates and we will incur further losses through the 2013 fiscal year and beyond as we continue the clinical development of Impracor and conduct preclinical studies on other programs. Our research and development activities are expected to increase over time, and we will require further capital resources to fund the continued operation of our business model for a long enough period to achieve profitable operations.

Plan of Operations

For the next twelve months, we expect to pursue the development of potential product candidates through our exclusive relationship with PCCA, as well as pursue co-development opportunities in other therapeutic areas, although we have not yet identified any such potential product candidates.  We also expect to focus on the development of our lead product candidate, Impracor. We expect our total expenditures over the next 12 months to be approximately $8.5-$10 million.

Based on our discussions with the FDA at our April 2013 Type C meeting, we have been advised that in order to submit a new drug application (“NDA”) for Impracor we must conduct two adequate and well controlled efficacy studies, one for the indication of sprains, strains and soft tissue injuries and one study in acute flare of osteoarthritis, as well as a routine safety study.  In August 2013, we were notified by our manufacturing supplier, DPT Laboratories, LTD. (“DPT”) of preliminary stability test results related to clinical materials of active and placebo bulk batches of Impracor to be used in planned Phase 3 clinical trials, which were manufactured at DPT’s San Antonio, Texas facility.  The preliminary test results revealed an out of specification result for the placebo formulation and a lower than expected specification result for the active formulation.  Shortly thereafter, a retest was performed, which confirmed the out of specification results for the placebo batch and revealed continued decreasing stability results related to the active batch.  On August 9, 2013, we reported that we had concluded that due to the decreasing stability results for the active batch, packaging of the materials would be put on hold, as further decrease in stability levels was likely and would result in the material being unusable for the upcoming planned Impracor clinical trials.  We are evaluating our options regarding the Impracor clinical program as a result of these manufacturing issues, which could include re-manufacturing the clinical materials at DPT’s facilities, which would result in a delay of the our planned clinical trials by at least one to two months, or moving the formulation and manufacturing process to another third party vendor, which could cause a delay of up to six months. We are working with our vendors to evaluate further options related to the production of clinical materials for the Phase 3 clinical trials and the continuation of the planned Impracor Phase 3 clinical program.  As a result of these delays, we do not expect to enroll our first patient in the planned Impracor clinical trial during the third quarter of 2013.

Recent Developments

Public Offering

On February 13, 2013, we closed an underwritten public offering of 1,840,000 shares of our common stock at a per share price to the public of $5.25 (the “Public Offering”), and received net proceeds of approximately $8,140,000 after deducting underwriter fees and commissions and other offering expenses. The underwriters also exercised their option to purchase an additional 276,000 shares of common stock to cover over-allotments on March 14, 2013. Net cash proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option were approximately $1,316,000. The shares issued upon the closing of the Public Offering and the exercise of the over-allotment were registered on a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-182846), which was declared effective by the SEC on February 7, 2013.

One-for-Five Reverse Stock Split; NASDAQ Listing

In connection with the Public Offering, on February 7, 2013 we effected a one-for-five reverse stock split of our common stock and on February 8, 2013, our common stock began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis. All information included in this Quarterly Report has been adjusted to reflect the effect of the one-for-five reverse stock split.

PCCA Strategic Alliance Agreement

On February 18, 2013, we entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “Agreement”) with PCCA. Under the Agreement, PCCA has agreed that during the term of the Agreement, it will not introduce any of PCCA’s members or customers meeting certain criteria (the “Member/Customers”) to any third party whereby such third party may license or otherwise acquire the intellectual property rights of such Member/Customer, without first presenting such an opportunity to us. PCCA may, but is not required to, present such opportunities to us, use reasonable efforts to facilitate an introductory meeting with the Member/Customer, and further provide certain key technical assistance to a potential development project associated with the Member/Customer’s intellectual property rights. In the event we and a Member/Customer introduced to the Company by PCCA enter into a commercial agreement for the license or acquisition of the intellectual property rights owned by the Member/Customer, PCCA will be entitled to receive certain cash fees up to an aggregate of $100,000, as well as a commission based on net sales, if any, generated by us as a result of the acquired intellectual property rights. The Agreement has a term of one year and will automatically extend for successive one year periods unless either party gives the other written notice of non-renewal.

Buderer Asset Purchase Agreement

On June 11, 2013, we acquired intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from the compounding pharmacy operations of Buderer Drug Company, Inc. (“Buderer”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Buderer APA”).  In addition, we have a right of first refusal on additional Buderer intellectual property and drug development opportunities.  The Buderer APA provides that Buderer will cooperate with us in obtaining patent protection for the acquired intellectual property and that we will use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop and commercialize a product based on the acquired intellectual property.

In consideration for the acquisition, we are obligated to make the following payments to Buderer:  (1) one payment payable within 30 days after the issuance of the first patent in the United States arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (2) one payment payable within 30 days after we file the first Investigational New Drug application (“IND”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the first product arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); and (3) certain royalty payments based on the net receipts received by us in connection with the sale or licensing of any product based on the acquired intellectual property (if any), after deducting (among other things) our development costs associated with such product.   If we do not file an IND for any product based on the acquired intellectual property within five years of the date of the Buderer APA, Buderer may terminate the Buderer APA and require us to re-assign the acquired technology to Buderer.

Novel Drug and Eye Care Northwest Asset Purchase Agreement

On August 8, 2013, we acquired intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from the compounding pharmacy operations of Novel Drug Solutions, LLC and from Eye Care Northwest, Inc. (together referred to as the “Sellers”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Novel APA”).  As part of this acquisition we have acquired intellectual property assets, including a provisional patent application related to injectable ophthalmological compositions having anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties for the prevention of post-ophthalmic surgery complications.  In addition, under the Novel APA, we have a right of first refusal on any of the Sellers’ additional intellectual property and drug development opportunities.  The Novel APA provides that the Sellers will cooperate with us in obtaining patent protection for the acquired intellectual property, among other things, and that we will use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop and commercialize a product based on the acquired intellectual property.

Critical Accounting Policies

We rely on the use of estimates and make assumptions that impact our financial condition and results. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical results and trends as well as our forecasts as to how results and trends might change in the future. Although we believe that the estimates we use are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 We believe that the accounting policies described below are critical to understanding our business, results of operations and financial condition because they involve more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and any changes in the different estimates that could have been used in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically could materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

 Our most critical accounting policies and estimates that may materially impact our results of operations include:

Stock-Based Compensation. All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock grants, to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements are based upon their fair values. We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and Monte Carlo Simulation to estimate the grant-date fair value of share-based awards. Fair value is determined at the date of grant. The financial statement effect of forfeitures is estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, if the actual effect differs from those estimates.

Our accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance. As such, the value of the applicable stock-based compensation is periodically remeasured and income or expense is recognized during the vesting terms. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. An asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, nonforfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, we record the fair value of nonforfeitable equity instruments issued for future consulting services as prepaid consulting fees in our consolidated balance sheets.

22

Income Taxes. As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we must estimate our actual current tax liabilities together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the balance sheet. We must assess the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, a valuation allowance must be established. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase or decrease this allowance in a period, the impact will be included in the tax provision in the statement of operations.

Research and Development. The Company expenses all costs related to research and development as they are incurred. Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities including salaries and benefits, and other overhead expenses, clinical trials, contract services and outsource contracts.

Intellectual Property.  The costs of acquiring intellectual property rights to be used in the research and development process, including licensing fees and milestone payments, are charged to research and development expense as incurred in situations where we have not identified an alternative future use for the acquired rights, and are capitalized in situations where it has identified an alternative future use. No costs associated with acquiring intellectual property rights have been capitalized to date. Costs of maintaining intellectual property rights are expensed as incurred.

Results of Operations

The following period to period comparisons of our financial results and our interim results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013, Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

Revenues

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 we recognized $2,500 and $5,000 in revenues, respectively, compared to $0 and $100,000 in revenues recognized during the same periods in the prior year. The 2012 revenues were non-refundable royalty advances, unrelated to product sales, paid to us in December 2010 and April 2011 pursuant to our license agreement with JH Direct, which provided JH Direct rights to our anti-cellulite cosmetic product. This agreement was terminated in January 2012, and we do not expect any other revenues to be recognized from it. Revenues recognized in 2013 are related to a license agreement we entered into with resolutionMD, LLC granting resolutionMD, LLC rights to our Accudel delivery technology to be used for anti-cellulite formulations. We do not expect to recognize significant revenues from this license agreement during fiscal 2013.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses include personnel costs including wages and stock-based compensation, corporate facility expenses, investor relations, consulting, insurance, filing fees, legal and accounting expenses.

The table below provides information regarding selling, general and administrative expenses.

	Three months ended June 30,				$		Six months ended June 30,				$
	2013		2012		Variance			2013		2012	Variance
Selling, general and administrative	$	1,556,145	$	984,667	$	571,478	$	2,576,094	$	1,293,623	$	1,282,471

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, there was an increase of $571,478 and $1,282,471, in selling, general and administrative expenses, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is largely attributable to the increase in our operations and activity during the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year, and is primarily due to the hiring and compensation of additional personnel including management and appointments to the Board of Directors, investor relation activities and consultants, and additional filing fees associated with the listing of our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market. The increase in personnel and investor relations costs are primarily associated with an increase of $81,290 and $453,049 in stock-based compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses primarily include expenses related to the Impracor clinical program, including costs for our contract research organization. Also included are personnel costs including wages and stock-based compensation, contract manufacturing, non-clinical studies, consulting and other costs related to the clinical program.

23

The table below provides information regarding research and development expenses.

	Three months ended June 30,				$		Six months ended June 30,				$
	2013		2012		Variance			2013		2012	Variance
Research and development	$	677,347	$	133,611	$	543,736	$	1,132,447	$	276,574	$	855,873

     For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, there was an increase of $543,736 and $855,873, respectively, in research and development expense as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase was primarily related to the planning and development of our Impracor clinical program, and the hiring and compensation of additional personnel.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $3,576 and $24,658 for the same periods in the prior year. The 10% promissory notes with principal balances of $750,000 issued under a line of credit agreement accounted for $3,576 and $12,535 of interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. A 7.5% convertible note with a principal balance of $1,000,000, issued in April 2010 accounted for $0 and $12,123 of interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. As described in more detail under “Loss on Extinguishment of Debt” below, the entire principal balances and all accrued and unpaid interest under these notes was converted into shares of our common stock on February 28, 2012.

Interest Income

Interest income was $12,940 and $20,008 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, compared to $5,584 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was due to a higher average cash balance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

On January 25, 2012, the Company entered into separate waiver and settlement agreements with Alexej Ladonnikov, the holder of 20% of a 7.5% Convertible Note (the “Note”) and DermaStar International, LLC (“DermaStar”), the holder of 80% of the Note. Pursuant to the terms of a waiver agreement, Mr. Ladonnikov and the Company agreed to the mandatory conversion of the twenty percent (20%) of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the Note held by Mr. Ladonnikov into the common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.60, at such time as the Company had a sufficient number of authorized common shares to effect such a conversion. Additionally, Mr. Ladonnikov agreed to make a one-time payment to the Company of $50,000 at the time of such conversion. On February 28, 2012, we received payment of $50,000 and issued 380,867 common shares to Mr. Ladonnikov as payment in full for his 20% ownership of the Note ($200,000) and its related accrued interest ($28,521). We determined this was a substantial modification to the debt instruments and applied debt extinguishment accounting to record a loss on extinguishment of debt of $150,000 ($200,000 Note principal balance less $50,000 cash payment) for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The Company and DermaStar agreed to the mandatory conversion of the 80% of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the Note held by DermaStar into the common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.6667 (“DermaStar Conversion Price”), at such time as the Company had a sufficient number of authorized common shares to effect such a conversion. Additionally, DermaStar agreed to a mandatory conversion of an additional $56,087 in accounts payable of the Company (“AP Conversion”) held by DermaStar, at such time as the Company had a sufficient number of authorized common shares and was able to convert the Note. The AP Conversion was made at the DermaStar Conversion Price. On February 28, 2012, we issued 1,454,962 common shares to DermaStar as payment in full for their 80% ownership of the Note ($800,000), its related accrued interest ($114,082) and $56,087 in accounts payable. We determined this was a substantial modification to the debt instrument and applied debt extinguishment accounting to record a loss on extinguishment of debt of $856,087 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

On April 20, 2012, DermaStar agreed to convert the promissory notes issued under a line of credit agreement and their related accrued interest, totaling $762,534, into 190,047 shares of our common stock and a related warrant to purchase up to an additional 48,262 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.925 per share. We determined this to be a substantial modification to the debt instrument and applied debt extinguishment accounting to record a loss on extinguishment of debt of $189,323 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

 Net Loss

Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $(2,218,052), and $(3,683,533), respectively, or $(0.25) and $(0.44), respectively, per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 of $(1,505,593) and $(2,884,681), respectively, or $(0.39) and $(1.17), respectively, per basic and diluted share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash on hand at June 30, 2013 was $17,970,320 as compared to $7,717,292 at June 30, 2012. The increase in cash on hand is primarily attributable to aggregate net proceeds of approximately $11,920,000 received from the issuance of common stock and warrants in private offerings to accredited investors in April and August 2012, and approximately $9,460,000 in net proceeds attributable to the closing of the Public Offering and its over-allotment exercise, in February and March 2013, respectively. Since inception through June 30, 2013, we have incurred aggregate losses of approximately $27,800,000. These losses are primarily due to selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses incurred in connection with developing and seeking regulatory approval for our lead drug candidate, Impracor. Historically, our operations have been financed through capital contributions and debt and equity financings.

Public Offering

 As further described above under the heading “Recent Developments,” on February 13, 2013 and March 14, 2013 we issued and sold in aggregate 2,116,000 shares of common stock at a per share purchase price of $5.25, for aggregate net proceeds to us of approximately $9,460,000.

The table below provides detailed information about our net cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

Cash Flow	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013			2012
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(2,062,764	)	$	(617,405	)
Net cash used in investing activities		(55,172	)		(15,308	)
Net cash provided by financing activities		10,052,641			8,203,845
Net Increase in Cash and Cash Equivalents		7,934,705			7,571,132
Cash and Cash Equivalents at Beginning of the Period		10,035,615			146,160
Cash and Cash Equivalents at End of the Period	$	17,970,320		$	7,717,292

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $2,062,764 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to $617,405 used in operating activities during the same period for the prior year. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was mainly due to costs associated with resuming the operation of our business, including hiring additional employees, and the planning, development and preparation of our Impracor clinical program and Phase 3 trials.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $55,172 and $15,308, respectively. The increase in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2103 was due primarily to the purchase of a certificate of deposit required as collateral in connection with the Company’s corporate credit card agreement.

25

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $10,052,641 and $8,203,845, respectively. The increase in cash is primarily attributable to aggregate proceeds, net of offering costs including $596,281 incurred in fiscal 2012, of approximately $10,053,000 received from the Public Offering and its over-allotment exercise, in February and March of 2013.

We expect to use our current cash position to pursue our business plan, including conducting clinical studies related to our Accudel technology, and otherwise fund our operations. Management believes we have sufficient cash reserves to operate our business for the next twelve months. If we are not able to generate significant revenues and attain profitable operations, we will need to seek additional financing, including equity or debt financing, funding from a corporate partnership or licensing arrangement or any similar financing. In addition, estimates of our operating expenses and working capital requirements could be incorrect, and we could be required to seek additional financing earlier than we anticipate.

We expect to require additional funds in order to conduct additional clinical trials and any other studies that may be required to obtain regulatory approval to market Impracor, to pursue additional pharmaceutical development programs and to explore other co-development opportunities. If adequate financing is not available, we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval to market Impracor or develop any additional products.

We may seek funds from equity or debt financings, corporate partnerships, or licensing arrangements, or any other similar financing. Any future financings through equity investments are likely to be dilutive to existing stockholders. Also, the terms of securities we may issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable for our new investors. Newly issued securities may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, which may have additional dilutive effects on our existing stockholders. In addition, if we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, we may be required to relinquish potentially valuable rights to our product candidates or proprietary technologies, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. Further, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which will adversely impact our financial results.

We may be unable to obtain financing when necessary as a result of, among other things, general economic conditions and conditions in the pharmaceuticals industry, or as a result of our operating history, including our past bankruptcy proceedings. In addition, the fact that we are not and have never been profitable could further impact the availability or cost of future financings. As a result, there is no assurance that sufficient funds will be available when needed from any source or, if available, will be available on terms that are acceptable to us. If we are unable to raise funds to satisfy our capital needs on a timely basis, then we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval to market Impracor or develop any additional products or otherwise pursue our business plan, and we may be required to cease operations.

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, management believes we have sufficient cash reserves to support our operating plan and fund operating cash flow requirements through the next twelve months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Since our inception, except for standard operating leases we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities. We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” ASU 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, with an option for early adoption. The Company intends to adopt this guidance at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal year 2014, and is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Interest rate sensitivity

We are exposed to market risks related to changes in interest rates. The primary objective of our investments in securities is to preserve principal. We do not purchase financial instruments for trading purposes. Our investment portfolio consists primarily of cash invested in money market funds. We classify our short-term restricted investment, which is a certificate of deposit as of June 30, 2013 as held-to-maturity. This held-to-maturity investment is subject to interest rate risk. Based on our current low yield, any decrease in interest rates is not likely to have a material effect on interest income.

As of June 30, 2013, approximately $16,600,000 of our cash and cash equivalents was maintained in money market funds. At times, deposits held with the financial institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), which provides deposit coverage with limits up to $250,000 per owner. At June 30, 2013, such uninsured deposits totaled approximately $17,700,000. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and, therefore, are believed to bear minimal risk.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. However, we seek to mitigate the risk related to cash and cash equivalents by placing our cash and cash equivalents in money market funds and at financial institutions of high credit standing.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC’s”) rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as they existed on June 30, 2013. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to achieve their stated purpose as of June 30, 2013, the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our second quarter ended June 30, 2013, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

27

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not aware of any pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which any of our property is subject the adverse outcome of which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information contained in this report and our other filings with the SEC. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business financial condition, results of operations and stock price. This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have incurred losses in the research and development of Impracor and our Accudel technology since inception. We may never generate revenue or become profitable.

We have incurred losses in every year of our operations, including net losses of $(5,383,535) and $(953,936) for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As of June 30, 2013, our accumulated deficit was $(27,787,801). In addition, we expect to incur increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future as we continue to incur costs for research and development and clinical trials, as well as other development activities. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability depends upon our ability, alone or with others, to complete the development of our proposed products, obtain the required regulatory approvals and manufacture, market and sell our proposed products. Development is costly and requires significant investment. In addition, we may choose to in-license rights to particular drugs or active ingredients. The license fees for such drugs or active ingredients may increase our costs.

We have not commercialized any product candidate and our ability to generate revenues from any of our product candidates will depend on a number of factors, including our ability to successfully complete clinical trials, obtain necessary regulatory approvals and negotiate arrangements with third parties to help finance the development of, and market and distribute, any product candidate that receives regulatory approval. In addition, we will be subject to the risk that the marketplace will not accept our products. Our ultimate success will depend on many factors, including whether Impracor receives U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval. We cannot be certain that we will receive FDA approval for Impracor, or that we will reach the level of sales and revenues necessary to achieve and sustain profitability. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with our product development and commercialization efforts, we may never be able to obtain or sustain market acceptance of Impracor or any future product candidate, or achieve profitability or positive cash flow.

We have a limited operating history and we may be unable to successfully resume our operations and implement our business plan.

On June 26, 2011, we suspended our operations and filed a voluntary petition for reorganization relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of California (the “Bankruptcy Court”), Case No. 11-10497-11 (the “Chapter 11 Case”). On November 21, 2011, in connection with our entry into a line of credit agreement and securities purchase agreement with DermaStar International, LLC (“DermaStar”), we requested that the Bankruptcy Court dismiss the Chapter 11 Case. On December 8, 2011, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order dismissing the Chapter 11 Case, and since that date we have engaged a new management team, appointed new directors to fill certain vacancies on our Board and worked towards initiating a new Phase 3 clinical trial for Impracor. We have a limited operating history since the dismissal of the Chapter 11 Case. We have had to re-assemble a management team and other employees to assist with our general operations. We currently have six employees, only one of whom was an employee of the Company prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Case. We will need to hire additional employees in order to execute our business plan. Given our operating history, we may be unable to hire and retain qualified individuals we will need to operate our business. In addition, our management team may not be successful in executing our business plan.

28

We may not be able to correctly estimate our future operating expenses, which could lead to cash shortfalls.

We expect our total expenditures over the next 12 months to be approximately $8.5-$10 million.  However, our estimate of total expenditures could change if we encounter unanticipated difficulties with our Phase 3 clinical trials for Impracor or pursue additional product development opportunities.  We have a limited operating history since the dismissal of the Chapter 11 Case, and we may incorrectly estimate the amount of cash necessary to fund our business.  Our estimates of our operating expenses may prove to be wrong and we could spend our available financial resources much faster than we currently expect.  If we do not have sufficient funds to continue to operate and develop our business, we could be required to seek additional financing earlier than we expect or be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our proposed operations.

Our operating expenses may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, some of which are outside of our control. These factors include, among other things:

● the time and resources required to conduct clinical trials and obtain regulatory approvals for Impracor; or any potential future drug candidate;

● the time and resources required to research and develop potential product candidates and pursue potential acquisition and licensing opportunities;  

● the costs to rebuild our management team following the dismissal of the Chapter 11 Case, including attracting and retaining personnel with the skills required for effective operations; and

● the costs of preparing, filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent claims and other patent related costs, including litigation costs and the results of such litigation.

 If we do not have sufficient funds to continue to develop our business, we will be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our proposed operations.

We expect to need additional capital in order to continue operating our business, and such additional funds may not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

We do not generate any cash from operations and, although we believe we have sufficient cash reserves to execute our business plan for at least the next twelve months, we expect to need significant additional capital to execute our business plan and fund our proposed business operations. We may seek to raise additional capital through, among other things, public and private equity offerings and debt financings. If we are unable to raise additional capital when necessary, we may be required to forego pursuing potentially valuable product development opportunities and reduce our expenses and cash expenditures to a material extent, which would impair or delay our ability to execute our business plan

We have raised $21.4 million in funds through equity financings since April 2012. We expect to continue to fund our operations primarily through equity and debt financings in the future, and could also pursue funding from corporate partnerships or licensing arrangements or similar financings. If additional capital is not available when necessary, we may not be able to continue to operate our business pursuant to our business plan or we may have to discontinue our operations entirely. If we issue equity or convertible debt securities to raise additional funds, our existing stockholders may experience substantial dilution, and the new equity or debt securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. In addition, if we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, we may be required to relinquish potentially valuable rights to our product candidates or proprietary technologies, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. If we incur additional debt, it may increase our leverage relative to our earnings or to our equity capitalization, requiring us to pay additional interest expenses. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, would increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. Further, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as options, convertible notes and warrants, which would adversely impact our financial results.

29

We may be unable to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidates and obtain FDA regulatory approval to market and sell our product candidates.

The process of obtaining FDA approval to market and sell pharmaceutical products is costly, time consuming, uncertain and subject to unanticipated delays. Our primary product candidate, Impracor, has not been approved for sale by the FDA or the regulatory authorities of any other country. In addition, we have acquired intellectual property related to a number of other potential product candidates and are currently assessing whether or not to pursue FDA approval for one or more potential product candidates. The FDA or other regulatory agencies may not approve any product candidates developed by us on a timely basis or at all. Before obtaining regulatory approvals for the sale of any of our potential product candidates, we must demonstrate through preclinical studies and clinical trials that the product candidate is safe and effective for each intended use. Preclinical and clinical studies may fail to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of our potential product candidates. Even promising results from preclinical and early clinical studies do not always accurately predict results in later, large scale trials. A failure to demonstrate safety and efficacy would result in our failure to obtain regulatory approvals. The outcome of the final analyses of clinical trial data may vary from our initial conclusions, or the FDA may not agree with our interpretation of such results or may challenge the adequacy of our clinical trial design or the execution of the clinical trial. Moreover, even if the FDA grants regulatory approval of a product candidate, the approval may be limited to specific indications or limited with respect to its distribution, which could limit revenues.

In June 2008, we initiated a Phase 3 clinical study for Impracor.  The clinical trial was designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center Phase 3 study that enrolled a total of 364 patients with acute soft tissue injuries of the upper or lower extremities in 26 centers in the United States. The FDA did not accept our modified Intent-To-Treat (ITT) Analysis of the data from this clinical study, and as a result the study did not demonstrate statistical significance on the primary efficacy endpoint.   The FDA is requiring us to complete two new adequate and well controlled Phase 3 clinical trials and one safety study before we can submit a New Drug Application under Section 505(b)(2) of the Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984 for Impracor.  We expect to conduct two clinical trials for Impracor, one in the indication of sprains, strains and soft tissue injuries and one study in acute flare of osteoarthritis, as well as a routine safety study.  We had previously expected to enroll the first patient in our first proposed Impracor Phase 3 clinical trial, for acute flare of osteoarthritis, during the third quarter of 2013.  However, we have experienced unanticipated delays in initiating the Phase 3 clinical trial as a result of certain manufacturing issues.  We expect to conduct an assessment of these manufacturing issues and are currently assessing our options with respect to the Impracor clinical program.  Following this assessment and our review of the key assumptions underlying the feasibility of the Impracor program, we could determine that it is not in the best interests of the Company to continue the Impracor program.  In addition, we may be unable to initiate or complete the proposed Phase 3 clinical trials for Impracor on a timely basis or at all.    The results of our currently proposed Phase 3 clinical trials or any future clinical trials or studies may not be favorable and we may never receive regulatory approval for Impracor.  Even if we obtain favorable results in our first Phase 3 clinical trial for Impracor, we may not obtain favorable results in the second proposed Phase 3 clinical trial.  We may be unable to demonstrate statistical significance on the primary or secondary endpoints in our proposed clinical trials.  Any limitation on use imposed by the FDA or delay in or failure to obtain FDA approvals of Impracor or any other product candidates developed by us would adversely affect our ability to generate product revenue, as well as the price of our common stock.  If we are unable to obtain FDA regulatory approval to market and sell Impracor or any potential future product candidate, we will not have revenue from product sales and may never become profitable.  

Delays in the conduct or completion of our clinical and non-clinical trials for Impracor, or any other product candidate we may pursue, or the analysis of the data from our clinical or non-clinical trials, may adversely affect our business.

Clinical trials are very expensive, time consuming and difficult to design and implement. Even if the results of our proposed clinical trials are favorable, they may continue for several years and may take significantly longer than expected to complete. Delays in the commencement or completion of clinical testing could significantly affect our product development costs and business plan. We do not know whether our proposed Phase 3 clinical trials for Impracor will be completed on schedule, if at all. In addition, we do not know whether any other pre-clinical or clinical trials related to any product development candidates we may identify will begin in a timely basis or be completed on schedule, if at all. The commencement and completion of clinical trials can be delayed for a number of reasons, including delays related to:

●   obtaining clearance from the FDA or its respective international regulatory equivalent to commence a clinical trial;

●   failure of the FDA to approve the scope or design of our clinical or non-clinical trials or manufacturing plans;

●   reaching agreement on acceptable terms with clinical research organizations, or CROs, clinical investigators and trial sites;

●   obtaining institutional review board, or IRB, approval to initiate and conduct a clinical trial at a prospective site;

●   insufficient supply or deficient quality of materials necessary for the performance of clinical or non-clinical trials;

●   identifying, recruiting and training suitable clinical investigators;

●   identifying, recruiting and enrolling subjects to participate in clinical trials;

●   retaining patients who have initiated a clinical trial but may be prone to withdraw or who are lost to further follow-up;

●   negative results of clinical or non-clinical studies; and

●   adverse side effects experienced by study participants in clinical trials relating to a specific product.

30

There may be circumstances other than the ones described above, including circumstances over which we may have no control, which could materially delay the successful completion of our clinical and non-clinical studies. Furthermore, we expect to rely on CROs to ensure the proper and timely conduct of our clinical trials, and while we expect to enter into agreements governing their committed activities, we have limited influence over their actual performance.

We believe that we have planned and designed an adequate clinical trial program for our Impracor product candidate. However, the FDA could determine that it is not satisfied with our plan or the details of our clinical trial protocols and designs. Additionally, changes in applicable regulatory requirements and guidance may occur and we may need to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect these changes. Amendments may require us to resubmit our clinical trial protocols to IRBs for reexamination, which may impact the costs, timing or successful completion of a clinical trial. If we experience delays in completion of, or if we terminate, any of our clinical trials, the commercial prospects for our product candidates may be harmed, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

We rely on third parties to manufacture sufficient quantities of compounds within product specifications as required by regulatory agencies for use in our pre-clinical and clinical trials, and any delays and problems with the manufacturing of our clinical materials would harm our business.

We do not have the ability to manufacture the materials we use or may use in our pre-clinical and clinical trials. Rather, we rely on various third parties to manufacture these materials.  Our third-party manufacturers may encounter delays and problems in manufacturing our investigational drug candidates and other materials associated with our clinical trials. In August 2013, we were notified by our contract manufacturer of preliminary stability test results related to clinical materials of active and placebo bulk batches of Impracor that were to be used in planned Phase 3 clinical trials for Impracor.  The preliminary test results revealed an out of specification result for the placebo formulation and a lower than expected specification result for the active formulation.  Shortly thereafter, a retest was performed, which confirmed the out of specification results for the placebo batch and revealed continued decreasing stability results related to the active batch.  This led us to conclude that due to the decreasing stability results for the active batch, packaging of the materials would be put on hold, as further decrease in stability levels was likely and would result in the material being unusable for the upcoming planned Impracor clinical trials and cause a significant delay in the commencement of the planned clinical trials.  As a result of these manufacturing issues, we no longer expect to enroll the first patient in our Impracor Phase 3 clinical trial during the third quarter of 2013.  We are evaluating our options regarding the Impracor clinical program as a result of these manufacturing issues, which could include re-manufacturing the clinical materials at the current contract manufacturer’s facilities, resulting in a delay of the our planned clinical trials by at least one to two months, or moving the formulation and manufacturing process to another third party vendor, which could result in a delay of up to six months. We are working with our vendors to evaluate further options related to the production of clinical materials for the Phase 3 clinical trials and the continuation of the planned Impracor Phase 3 clinical program.  In order to have materials successfully manufactured for our clinical program, we must conduct an accurate assessment of the manufacturing issues giving rise to the out of specification results, obtain the materials required to manufacturer Impracor and the placebo, and either work with our current contract manufacturer or engage a new contract manufacturer to manufacture Impracor and the placebo.  If any of these third parties, or any other third parties we rely upon in connection with the manufacturing of clinical materials, do not provide materials in a timely manner, or if they otherwise breach their agreements with us, it may be difficult to replace their services quickly or at all.  There may be long lead times to obtain materials. Commercially available starting materials, reagents, excipients, and other materials may become scarce, more expensive to procure, or not meet quality standards.  We may not be able to identify, qualify and obtain prior regulatory approval for additional sources of clinical materials. If interruptions in our supply chain occur for any reason, including a decision by the third parties to discontinue manufacturing, technical difficulties, labor disputes, natural or other disasters, or a failure of the third parties to follow specifications or regulations, we may encounter difficulties in timely completing our clinical trials, we may be unable to obtain regulatory approvals for our investigational drug candidates in a timely manner and, ultimately, we may be unable to successfully commercialize these investigational drug candidates. If we are unable to have our clinical materials successfully manufactured by our current or any future contract manufacturer, we would be unable to initiate our clinical program.

We may be unable to successfully develop and commercialize Impracor, or develop and commercialize any other assets we have acquired or may acquire in the future.

Our future results of operations will depend to a significant extent upon our ability to successfully develop and commercialize in a timely manner any of the assets we have acquired or will acquire rights to, whether through our relationship with PCCA or with other third parties.  In May 2013, we acquired certain intellectual property from Buderer Drug Company.  In August 2013, we acquired certain intellectual property from Novel Drug Solutions and Eye Care Northwest.  We are in the process of assessing the acquired intellectual property in order to determine whether or not to pursue product development of any of these assets.  In addition, we expect to consider the acquisition of additional intellectual property in the future.  There are numerous difficulties inherent in acquiring, developing and commercializing new products and product candidates, including difficulties related to:

●   successfully identifying potential product candidates;

●   developing potential product candidates;

●   difficulties in conducting or completing clinical trials, including receiving incomplete, unconvincing or equivocal clinical trials data;

●   obtaining requisite regulatory approvals for such products in a timely manner or at all;

●   acquiring, developing, testing and manufacturing products in compliance with regulatory standards in a timely manner or at all;

●   being subject to legal actions brought by our competitors, which may delay or prevent the development and commercialization of new products;

●   delays or unanticipated costs; and

●   significant and unpredictable changes in the payer landscape, coverage and reimbursement for any products we develop.

31

     Other than with respect to Impracor, we have not identified any potential pharmaceutical product candidates. Once we determine which potential candidates to pursue, we will be required to satisfy a number of FDA requirements prior to commencing clinical trials. These requirements will require substantial time, effort and financial resources. We may never satisfy these requirements. In addition, prior to commencing any trials of a drug candidate, we must evaluate whether a market exists for the drug candidate. This is costly and time consuming, and any market studies we rely on may not be accurate. We may expend significant capital and other resources on a potential product candidate and find that no commercial market exists for the drug.

As a result of these and other difficulties, we may be unable to develop potential product candidates using our intellectual property, and potential products in development by us may not receive timely regulatory approvals, or approvals at all, necessary for marketing by us or our third-party partners. If we do not acquire or develop product candidates, any of our product candidates are not approved in a timely fashion or at all or, when acquired or developed and approved, cannot be successfully manufactured and commercialized, our operating results would be adversely affected. In addition, we may not recoup our investment in developing products, even if we are successful in commercializing those products. Our business expenditures may not result in the successful acquisition, development or commercialization of products that will prove to be commercially successful or result in the long-term profitability of our business.

We may not obtain rights to product candidates or receive any other benefits from our relationship with PCCA.

We expect to utilize our relationship with PCCA to identify development opportunities where we perceive an unmet need for a new drug product, and thereby facilitate our future selection, formulation and development of potential product candidates. Our relationship with PCCA, on which we intend to rely to facilitate our evaluation of the potential market for future products we may develop, is terminable by PCCA if we fail to commence efforts to research and develop future products within certain time periods. We may not be able to meet such requirements within the required time periods or at all, and our relationship with PCCA could be terminated. If we do commence clinical trials of any potential product candidates we obtain through PCCA, such product candidates may never be approved by the FDA. As a result, we may never successfully develop and obtain approval to market and sell any of our potential product candidates. Even if we do develop and obtain approval to market and sell such product candidates, we may be unable to compete against the many products and treatments currently being offered or under development by other established, well-known and well-financed health care and pharmaceutical companies.

We may participate in strategic transactions that could impact our liquidity, increase our expenses and present significant distractions to our management.

From time to time we consider strategic transactions, such as out-licensing or in-licensing of compounds or technologies, acquisitions of companies and asset purchases. Additional potential transactions we may consider include a variety of different business arrangements, including strategic partnerships, joint ventures, spin-offs, restructurings, divestitures, business combinations and investments. In addition, another entity may pursue us as an acquisition target. Any such transactions may require us to incur non-recurring or other charges, may increase our near and long-term expenditures and may pose significant integration challenges, require additional expertise or disrupt our management or business, any of which could harm our operations and financial results. Such transactions may also entail numerous operational and financial risks, including, among others, exposure to unknown liabilities, disruption of our business and diversion of our management’s time and attention in order to develop acquired products, product candidates or technologies,

As part of an effort to enter into any significant transaction, we must conduct business, legal and financial due diligence with the goal of identifying and evaluating material risks involved in the transaction. Despite our efforts, we may be unsuccessful in ascertaining or evaluating all such risks and, as a result, might not realize the expected benefits of any such transaction. If we fail to realize the expected benefits from any transaction we may consummate, whether as a result of unidentified risks, integration difficulties, regulatory setbacks or other events, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. In addition, we may encounter difficulties and additional unexpected costs in combining the operations and personnel of any acquired businesses with our operations and personnel, and we may be unable to retain key employees of any acquired businesses.

If our patents are determined to be unenforceable or expire, or if we are unable to obtain new patents based on current or future patent applications, we may not be able to prevent others from using our intellectual property and this may influence our commitment to continue to fund the development of assets that have limited legal patent life.

Our success will depend in part on our ability to:

● obtain and maintain patent protection with respect to our products;

● prevent third parties from infringing upon our proprietary rights;

● maintain trade secrets;

● operate without infringing upon the patents and proprietary rights of others; and

● obtain appropriate licenses to patents or proprietary rights held by third parties if infringement would otherwise occur.

We obtained a patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office on our Accudel technology in 1998, which affords protection of Accudel through 2016 in the United States. This patent specifically identifies over 500 different drugs in over 60 therapeutic areas, including ketoprofen, the active pharmaceutical ingredient in Impracor. We may not be successful in our efforts to extend the date of our patent protection beyond 2016. Failure to maintain or extend the patent could adversely affect our business. Other than Canada, we do not have a patent for Accudel or Impracor in Europe or any other countries. We will only be able to protect our drug candidates and our technologies from unauthorized use by third parties to the extent that valid and enforceable patents cover them.

The patent and intellectual property positions of specialty pharmaceutical companies, including ours, are uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions. There is no guarantee that we have or will develop or obtain the rights to products or processes that are patentable, that patents will issue from any pending applications or that claims allowed will be sufficient to protect the technology we develop or have developed or that is used by us, our contract manufacturing organizations or our other service providers. In addition, we cannot be certain that patents issued to us will not be challenged, invalidated, infringed or circumvented, including by our competitors, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide competitive advantages to us.

We also may rely on unpatented trade secrets and know-how and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position, which we seek to protect, in part, by confidentiality agreements with current employees, consultants, collaborators and others. We also have invention or patent assignment agreements with our current employees and certain consultants. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, or that trade secrets will not otherwise become known or be independently discovered by competitors. In addition, there can be no assurance that inventions relevant to us will not be developed by a person not bound by an invention assignment agreement with us.

We may not be successful in obtaining additional patents based on our intellectual property strategy.

We have undertaken an effort to examine our intellectual property assets and have or may file additional patent applications in the US and other jurisdictions, with the goal of attaining additional protections for our potential product candidates and any related future products. The applications we have filed or we expect to file may never yield patents that protect our inventions and intellectual property assets. Failure to obtain additional patents may limit our protection against generic drug manufacturers and other parties who may seek to copy or otherwise produce products substantially similar to ours using technologies that may be substantially similar to those we own.

33

We may face additional competition outside of the U.S. as a result of a lack of patent coverage in some territories and differences in patent prosecution and enforcement laws in foreign counties.

Filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patents on our potential investigational drug candidates throughout the world is extremely expensive. While we have filed patent applications in many countries outside the U.S., and have obtained some patent coverage for Accudel and Impracor in Canada, we do not currently have widespread patent protection for Impracor outside the U.S. and have no protection in any foreign jurisdiction other than Canada. Competitors may use our technologies to develop their own drugs in jurisdictions where we have not obtained patent protection. These drugs may compete with our approved drugs or future investigational drug candidates and may not be covered by any of our patent claims or other intellectual property rights.

Even if international patent applications for future product candidates or Impracor are ultimately issued or received approval, it is likely that the scope of protection provided by such patents will be different from, and possibly less than, the scope provided by our corresponding U.S. patents. The success of our international market opportunity would be dependent upon the enforcement of patent rights in various other countries. A number of countries in which we could file patent applications have a history of weak enforcement and/or compulsory licensing of intellectual property rights. Moreover, the legal systems of certain countries, particularly certain developing countries, do not favor the aggressive enforcement of patents and other intellectual property protection, particularly those relating to biotechnology and/or pharmaceuticals, which makes it difficult for us to stop the infringement of our patents. Even if we have patents issued in these jurisdictions, there can be no assurance that our patent rights will be sufficient to prevent generic competition or unauthorized use. Attempting to enforce our patent rights in foreign jurisdictions could result in substantial cost and divert our efforts and attention from other aspects of our business.

The use of our technologies could potentially conflict with the rights of others.

The manufacture, use or sale of our proprietary products may infringe on the patent rights of others. If we are unable to avoid infringement of the patent rights of others, we may be required to seek a license, defend an infringement action or challenge the validity of the patents in court. Patent litigation is costly and time consuming and may divert management’s attention and our resources. We may not have sufficient resources to bring these actions to a successful conclusion. In such case, we may be required to alter our products, pay licensing fees or cease activities. If our products conflict with patent rights of others, third parties could bring legal actions against us claiming damages and seeking to enjoin manufacturing and marketing of affected products. If these legal actions are successful, in addition to any potential liability for damages, we could be required to obtain a license in order to continue to manufacture or market the affected products. We may not prevail in any legal action and a required license under the patent may not available on acceptable terms, if at all.

If approved, failure to comply with continuing federal and state regulations could result in the loss of approvals to market our drugs.

Following initial regulatory approval of any drugs we may develop, we will be subject to continuing regulatory review, including review of adverse drug experiences and clinical results that are reported after our drug products become commercially available. This would include results from any post-marketing tests or continued actions required as a condition of approval. The manufacturer and manufacturing facilities we use to make any of our drug candidates will be subject to periodic review and inspection by the FDA. If a previously unknown problem or problems with a product or a manufacturing and laboratory facility used by us is discovered, the FDA may impose restrictions on that product or on the manufacturing facility, including requiring us to withdraw the product from the market. Any changes to an approved product, including the way it is manufactured or promoted, often requires FDA approval before the product, as modified, can be marketed. In addition, we and our contract manufacturers will be subject to ongoing FDA requirements for submission of safety and other post-market information. If we or our contract manufacturers fail to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, a regulatory agency may:

34

● issue warning letters;

● impose civil or criminal penalties;

● suspend or withdraw our regulatory approval;

● suspend or terminate any of our ongoing clinical trials;

● refuse to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications filed by us;

● impose restrictions on our operations;

● close the facilities of our contract manufacturers; or

● seize or detain products or require a product recall.

Regulatory review also covers a company’s activities in the promotion of its drugs, with significant potential penalties and restrictions for promotion of drugs for an unapproved use. Sales and marketing programs are under scrutiny for compliance with various mandated requirements, such as illegal promotions to health care professionals. We are also required to submit information on our open and completed clinical trials to public registries and databases. Failure to comply with these requirements could expose us to negative publicity, fines and penalties that could harm our business.

If we violate regulatory requirements at any stage, whether before or after marketing approval is obtained, we may be fined, be forced to remove a product from the market or experience other adverse consequences, including delay, which would materially harm our financial results. We may not be able to obtain the labeling claims necessary or desirable for product promotion.

Even if we obtain regulatory approval to market and sell our potential product candidates, we may not be successful in marketing and selling our products and we may not recoup the costs associated with our development programs.

Even if we obtain regulatory approvals, uncertainty exists as to whether the market will accept our products or if the market for our products is as large as we anticipate. A number of factors may limit the market acceptance of our products, including the timing of regulatory approvals and market entry relative to competitive products, the availability of alternative products, the price of our products relative to alternative products, the availability of third party reimbursement and the extent of marketing efforts by third party distributors or agents that we retain. We cannot assure you that our products will receive market acceptance in a commercially viable period of time, if at all. We cannot be certain that any investment made in developing products will be recovered, even if we are successful in commercialization. To the extent that we expend significant resources on research and development efforts and are not able, ultimately, to introduce successful new products as a result of those efforts, our business, financial position and results of operations may be materially adversely affected, and the market value of our common stock could decline.

We may be subject to product liability claims.

The development, manufacture, and sale of pharmaceutical products expose us to the risk of significant losses resulting from product liability claims. Although we have obtained and intend to maintain product liability insurance to offset some of this risk, we may be unable to maintain such insurance or it may not cover certain potential claims against us.

In the future, we may not be able to afford to obtain insurance due to rising costs in insurance premiums in recent years. Currently we have been able to secure insurance coverage; however, we may be faced with a successful claim against us in excess of our product liability coverage that could result in a material adverse impact on our business. If insurance coverage is too expensive or is unavailable to us in the future, we may be forced to self-insure against product-related claims. Without insurance coverage, a successful claim against us and any defense costs incurred in defending ourselves may have a material adverse impact on our operations.

35

We are dependent on third parties to conduct clinical trials and non-clinical studies of our drug candidates and to provide services for certain core aspects of our business. Any interruption or failure by these third parties to meet their obligations pursuant to various agreements with us could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We do not employ personnel or possess the facilities necessary to conduct many of the activities associated with our programs. We have engaged, and expect to continue to engage consultants, advisors, contract research organizations (CROs) and others to design, conduct, analyze and interpret the results of studies in connection with the research and development of our product candidates. As a result, many important aspects of our product candidates’ development are outside our direct control. Such third parties may not perform all of their obligations under arrangements with us or may not perform those obligations satisfactorily.

The CROs with whom we contract and expect to contract for execution of our clinical studies will play a significant role in the conduct of our anticipated clinical studies or assist with our analysis of completed studies and to develop corresponding regulatory strategies. Individuals working at such CROs, as well as investigators at the sites at which our studies are conducted, are not our employees, and we cannot control the amount or timing of resources that they devote to our programs. If these CROs fail to devote sufficient time and resources to our studies, or if their performance is substandard, it would delay the approval of our applications to regulatory agencies and the introduction of our products. Failure of these CROs to meet their obligations could adversely affect development of our product candidates and as a result could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, these CROs may have relationships with other commercial entities, some of which may compete with us. If they assist our competitors at our expense, it could harm our competitive position.

In the event that we successfully develop our product candidates into commercial products, we will be dependent on outside manufacturers and  will have limited control of the manufacturing process, access to raw materials, timing for delivery of finished products and costs. One manufacturer may constitute the sole source of one or more of our products.

In the event that we successfully develop our product candidates into commercial products, we expect that third party manufacturers will manufacture all of our products. Currently, certain of our contract manufacturers constitute the sole source of one or more of our products in connection with our clinical program for Impracor.  We have experienced unanticipated delays in initiating our Phase 3 clinical trial for Impracor as a result of certain manufacturing issues.  If we were to obtain FDA approval to market Impracor, we could continue to experience similar manufacturing delays and issues in connection with the manufacture of Impracor for commercial purposes.  If any of our existing or future manufacturers cease to manufacture or are otherwise unable to deliver any of our products or any of the components of our products, we may need to engage additional manufacturing partners. Because of contractual restraints and the lead-time necessary to obtain FDA approval of a new manufacturer, replacement of any of these manufacturers may be expensive and time consuming and may disrupt or delay our ability to supply our products and reduce our revenues.

Because all of our products, in the event that we successfully develop our product candidates into commercial products, will be manufactured by third parties, we have a limited ability to control the manufacturing process, access to raw materials, the timing for delivery of finished products or costs related to this process. There can be no assurance that our contract manufacturers will be able to produce finished products in quantities that are sufficient to meet demand or at all, in a timely manner, which could result in decreased revenues and loss of market share. There may be delays in the manufacturing process over which we will have no control, including shortages of raw materials, labor disputes, backlog or failure to meet FDA standards. Increases in the prices we pay our manufacturers, interruptions in our supply of products or lapses in quality could adversely impact our financial condition. We are reliant on our third-party manufacturers to maintain their manufacturing facilities in compliance with FDA and other federal, state and/or local regulations including health, safety and environmental standards. If they fail to maintain compliance with FDA or other critical regulations, they could be ordered to curtail operations, which would have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We also rely on our outside manufacturers to assist us in the preparation of key documents such as drug master files and other relevant documents that are required by the FDA as part of the drug approval process and post-approval oversight. Failure by our outside manufacturers to properly prepare and retain these documents could cause delays in obtaining FDA approval of our drug candidates.

36

We currently have no internal sales and marketing resources and may have to rely on third parties in the event that we successfully commercialize our product.

In order to market any of our products in the United States or elsewhere, we must develop internally or obtain access to sales and marketing forces with technical expertise and with supporting distribution capability in the relevant geographic territory. We may not be able to enter into marketing and distribution arrangements or find a corporate partner to market our drug candidates, and we currently do not have the resources or expertise to market and distribute our products ourselves. If we are not able to enter into marketing or distribution arrangements or find a corporate partner who can provide support for commercialization of our products, we may not be able to successfully commercialize our products. Moreover, any new marketer or distributor or corporate partner for our specific combinations with whom we choose to contract may not establish adequate sales and distribution capabilities or gain market acceptance for our products.

If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel and consultants, we may be unable to maintain or expand our business.

We terminated all of our employees following our filing of a Chapter 11. Since the dismissal of the Chapter 11 Case in December 2011, we have focused on rebuilding our management team and engaging consultants in order to begin operating our business. However, because of this history, we may have significant difficulty attracting and retaining necessary employees. In addition, because of the specialized scientific nature of our business, our ability to develop products and to compete will remain highly dependent, in large part, upon our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, technical and commercial personnel. The loss of key scientific, technical and commercial personnel or the failure to recruit key scientific, technical and commercial personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business. While we have employment agreements with certain key employees, we may not succeed in retaining personnel or their services under existing agreements or otherwise. There is intense competition for qualified personnel in the pharmaceutical industry, and we may be unable to continue to attract and retain the qualified personnel necessary for the development of our business.

We depend upon consultants and outside contractors extensively in important roles within our company.

We outsource many key functions of our business and therefore rely on a substantial number of consultants, and we will need to be able to effectively manage these consultants to ensure that they successfully carry out their contractual obligations and meet expected deadlines. However, if we are unable to effectively manage our outsourced activities or if the quality or accuracy of the services provided by consultants is compromised for any reason, our clinical trials or other development activities may be extended, delayed or terminated, and we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for our current and future investigational drug candidates or otherwise advance our business. We may not be able to manage our existing consultants or find other competent outside contractors and consultants on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

If we are unable to compete with other companies that develop rival products to our products, we may never gain market share or achieve profitability.

The pharmaceutical industry is intensely competitive, and we face competition across the full range of our activities. If we fail to compete successfully, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Our competitors include brand name and generic manufacturers of pharmaceuticals specializing in topical drug delivery, especially those doing business in the United States. In the market for pain management products, our competitors include manufacturers of over-the-counter and prescription pain relievers. Because we are smaller than many of our national competitors, we may lack the financial and other resources needed to compete for market share in the pain management sector. Our other potential drug candidates will also face intense competition from larger and better established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significantly greater financial, technical and scientific resources than we do. In addition to product safety, development and efficacy, other competitive factors in the pharmaceutical market include product quality and price, reputation, service and access to scientific and technical information. If our products are unable to compete with the products of our competitors, we may never gain market share or achieve profitability.

We may not be able to keep up with the rapid technological change in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, which could make our products obsolete and reduce our potential revenues.

Biotechnology and related pharmaceutical technologies have undergone and continue to be subject to rapid and significant change. Our future will depend in large part on our ability to maintain a competitive position with respect to these technologies. It is possible that developments by our competitors will render our products and technologies obsolete or unable to compete. Any products that we develop may become obsolete before we recover expenses incurred in developing those products, which may require that we raise additional funds to continue our operations.

37

Our ability to generate revenues will be diminished if we fail to obtain acceptable prices or an adequate level of reimbursement from third-party payors.

If we succeed in bringing a specific product to market, we cannot be certain that the products will be considered cost effective and that reimbursement from insurance companies and other third-party payors will be available or, if available, will be sufficient to allow us to sell the products on a competitive basis.

Significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursement status of newly approved health care products. Third-party payors, including Medicare, are challenging the prices charged for medical products and services. Government and other third-party payors increasingly are attempting to contain health care costs by limiting both coverage and the level of reimbursement for new drugs and by refusing, in some cases, to provide coverage for uses of approved products for disease indications for which the FDA has not granted labeling approval. Third-party insurance coverage may not be available to patients for any products we discover and develop, alone or with collaborators. If government and other third-party payors do not provide adequate coverage and reimbursement levels for our products, the market acceptance of these products may be reduced.

Changes in the healthcare industry that are beyond our control may be detrimental to our business.

The healthcare industry is changing rapidly as consumers, governments, medical professionals and the pharmaceutical industry examine ways to broaden medical coverage while controlling the increase in healthcare costs. In 2009 and 2010, the U.S. Congress adopted legislation regarding health insurance, which has been signed into law. As a result of this new legislation, substantial changes could be made to the current system of paying for healthcare in the United States, including changes made in order to extend medical benefits to those who currently lack insurance coverage. Extending coverage to a large population could substantially change the structure of the health insurance system and the methodology for reimbursing medical services, drugs and devices. These structural changes could entail modifications to the existing system of private payers and government programs, such as Medicare, Medicaid and State Children’s Health Insurance Program, creation of a government-sponsored healthcare insurance source, or some combination of both, as well as other changes. Restructuring the coverage of medical care in the United States could impact the reimbursement for prescribed drugs, biopharmaceuticals, medical devices, or our product candidates and could put pressure on the prices of pharmaceutical products, which could adversely affect our business or products.

Because of their significant stock ownership, some of our existing stockholders will be able to exert control over us and our significant corporate decisions, and sales by management and the Board of Directors from time to time could have an adverse effect on our stock price.

Our executive officers and directors own or have the right to acquire within 60 days, in the aggregate, approximately 19% of the shares of common stock outstanding following such issuance to them. In addition, three individual stockholders hold an additional approximately 30% of our common stock. The sale of even a portion of these shares will likely have a material adverse effect on our stock price. In addition, these persons, acting together, have the ability to exercise significant influence over the outcome of all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election and removal of directors and any significant transaction involving us, as well as control our management and affairs. Since our stock ownership is concentrated among a limited number of holders and our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws permit our stockholders to act by written consent, a limited number of stockholders may approve stockholder actions without holding a meeting of stockholders and could control the outcome of actions requiring stockholder approval. This concentration of ownership may harm the market price of our common stock by, among other things:

● delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of our company;

● impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover, or other business combination involving our company;

● causing us to enter into transactions or agreements that are not in the best interests of all stockholders; or

● discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.

38

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports, our operating results could be misstated, our reputation may be harmed and the trading price of our stock could be negatively affected. As we discuss in Item 9A of this Annual Report, we have only recently remediated certain material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We have implemented actions to address these weaknesses and to enhance the reliability and effectiveness of our internal controls and operations, and our management has concluded that there are no material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. However, our controls over financial processes and reporting may not continue to be effective, or we may identify additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls in the future. Any failure to remediate any future material weaknesses or implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements or other public disclosures. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

An active trading market for shares of our common stock may not develop or be sustained.

Historically, trading in our common stock has been sporadic and volatile, and our common stock has been “thinly-traded”. As a consequence, there may be extended periods when trading activity in our shares is minimal, as compared to a seasoned issuer with a large and steady volume of trading activity. The market for our common shares is also characterized by significant price volatility compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that such volatility will continue. As a result of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. It is possible that an active and liquid trading market in our securities may never develop or, if one does develop, that the market will not continue.

Our stock price may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

● changes in the pharmaceutical industry and markets;

● competitive pricing pressures;

● our ability to obtain working capital financing;

● new competitors in our market;

● additions or departures of key personnel;

● limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;

● sales of our common stock;

● our ability to execute our business plan;

● operating results that fall below expectations;

● loss of any strategic relationship with our contract manufacturers or with other third parties (including PCCA) and clinical and non-clinical research organizations;

● industry or regulatory developments; or

● economic and other external factors.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

39

We have the right to issue shares of preferred stock. If we were to issue preferred stock, it is likely to have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of our common stock.

We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, with such rights, preferences and privileges as may be determined from time-to-time by our board of directors. Following the conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock on June 29, 2012, we have no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding. Our board of directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock in one or more series, and to fix for any series the dividend rights, dissolution or liquidation preferences, redemption prices, conversion rights, voting rights, and other rights, preferences and privileges for the preferred stock. We have no immediate plans to issue shares of preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock, depending on the rights, preferences and privileges attributable to the preferred stock, could adversely reduce the voting rights and powers of the common stock and the portion of our assets allocated for distribution to common stock holders in a liquidation event, and could also result in dilution in the book value per share of the common stock we are offering. The preferred stock could also be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method for raising additional capital or discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the company.

We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting us at such time as our board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

The sale by our stockholders of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market or upon the expiration of any statutory holding period, under Rule 144, or upon expiration of lock-up periods applicable to outstanding shares, or issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

ITEM 2.  UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

As previously disclosed on a Form 8-K dated April 27, 2012, effective April 1, 2012, we entered into an advisory agreement with director Dr. Robert Kammer (the “Advisory Agreement”) pursuant to which Dr. Kammer has provided certain services to the Company in addition to his services as a director. As required under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, on June 28, 2013, we issued 33,333 shares to Dr. Kammer in consideration for services performed during the period from April 2012 to June 2013.

As previously disclosed on a Form 8-K dated July 24, 2012, on July 18, 2012 our Board of Directors granted to Mr. Mark L. Baum, our the Chief Executive Officer, 160,000 restricted stock units “(RSUs”) outside of the Company’s 2007 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan pursuant to a Stand-alone Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. The RSUs are subject to certain performance-based vesting criteria, such that 40,000 RSUs vested upon successful completion of our February 2013 public offering. On June 28, 2013, we issued 40,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Baum in connection with the vesting of the 40,000 RSUs.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

Asset Purchase Agreement

On August 8, 2013, we acquired intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from the compounding pharmacy operations of Novel Drug Solutions, LLC and from Eye Care Northwest, Inc. (together referred to as the “Sellers”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Novel APA”).  As part of this acquisition we have acquired intellectual property assets, including a provisional patent application related to injectable ophthalmological compositions having anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties for the prevention of post-ophthalmic surgery complications.  In addition, under the Novel APA, we have a right of first refusal on any of the Sellers’ additional intellectual property and drug development opportunities.  The Novel APA provides that the Sellers will cooperate with us in obtaining patent protection for the acquired intellectual property, among other things, and that we will use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop and commercialize a product based on the acquired intellectual property.

In consideration for the acquisition, we are obligated to make the following payments to the Sellers:  (1) one payment payable within 30 days after the issuance of the first patent in the United States arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (2) one payment payable within 30 days after we file the first IND with the FDA for the first product arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (3) one payment payable within 30 days after we file the first New Drug application with the FDA for the first product; and (4) certain royalty payments based on the net receipts received by us in connection with the sale or licensing of any product based on the acquired intellectual property (if any), after deducting (among other things) our development costs associated with such product.   If we do not file an IND for any product based on the acquired intellectual property within five years of the date of the Novel APA, the Sellers may terminate the Novel APA and we must re-assign the acquired technology to the Sellers.

Exhibit 10.4

IMPRIMIS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS AGREEMENT

On May 2, 2013 (the “Grant Date”), Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has awarded to Mark Baum (“Grantee”) a targeted number of 1,050,000 (the “Target Number”) Performance Stock Units (the “Performance Stock Units” or “Award”) to be calculated and determined as discussed below.  Each Performance Stock Unit will represent an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to deliver shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Shares”) to Grantee as set forth herein. Each Performance Stock Unit will be subject to forfeiture until the date such Performance Stock Unit vests pursuant to Paragraph 1 of this Agreement.  The Performance Stock Units have been granted pursuant to the Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Amended and Restated 2007 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan (the “Plan”), and shall be subject to all provisions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference, and shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement.  Capitalized terms used in this Agreement that are not specifically defined will have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

1.           Vesting.  The Performance Stock Units consist of the following five tranches (each, a “Tranche”) that vest upon the attainment of the target share price (the “Target Share Price”) as specified below:

Tranche	No. of Shares	Target Share Price
Tranche 1	19.05% of Target Number	$10.00 or greater
Tranche 2	19.05% of Target Number	$15.00 or greater
Tranche 3	19.05% of Target Number	$20.00 or greater
Tranche 4	19.05% of Target Number	$25.00 or greater
Tranche 5	23.8% of Target Number	$30.00 or greater

Each Tranche may only vest once.  Except as otherwise specified below, for each respective Tranche to vest, all three of the following conditions must be met:

(a)           a Trigger Date may occur any time after the Grant Date.  A “Trigger Date” means any trading day on which the official closing price per Share (the “Closing Price”) is at or above the Target Share Price for the respective Tranche.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee will, in such manner as the Committee determines is appropriate in its discretion, include the value of stock dividends distributed to the stockholders of the Company in connection with spin-offs or similar transactions for purposes of determining whether the Target Share Price has been achieved;

(b)           during the period that includes the Trigger Date and the immediately following 19 trading days (each, a “Measurement Period”), the arithmetic mean of the 20 Closing Prices during the Measurement Period must be at or above the Target Share Price for such Tranche (the “20 Closing Price Condition”); and

(c)           the Grantee must be in continuous service with the Company and its Affiliates through the third anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Service Condition”).

To the extent all three of the above conditions are met, the third anniversary of the Grant Date shall be the “Vesting Date.” If the Grantee’s employment is terminated as a result of death or Disability, in each case before the third anniversary of the Grant Date, then all Tranches for which a Trigger Date has occurred and the 20 Closing Price Condition has been satisfied on or before the date of termination but which are not vested solely because the date of termination occurs before the third anniversary of the Grant Date shall vest, and the date of termination shall be the Vesting Date.  If the Grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company other than a termination for Cause (as defined in his Employment Agreement), or by the Grantee for Good Reason (as defined in his Employment Agreement), in each case before the third anniversary of the Grant Date, then (i) all Tranches for which a Trigger Date has occurred and the 20 Closing Price Condition has been satisfied on or before the date of termination but which are not vested solely because the Service Condition has not been satisfied shall vest, and the date of termination shall be the Vesting Date; and (ii) all Tranches for which a Trigger Date occurs and the 20 Closing Price Condition has been satisfied on or after the date of termination but on or before the first anniversary of the date of termination and with respect to which the Grantee would have vested had he satisfied the Service Condition shall vest on the date on which both the Trigger Date occurs and the 20 Closing Price Condition has been satisfied and such date shall be the Vesting Date; provided that the Grantee executes and delivers the Release contemplated by the Employment Agreement to the Company within twenty-one (21) days following the date of termination, without revocation or modification; provided, further, that if a Change of Control has occurred prior to such termination, the subsequent sentence shall govern, and in no event shall the Vesting Date or a Trigger Date extend beyond the third anniversary of the Grant Date.  If, after the first anniversary but before the third anniversary of the Grant Date, the Grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company or its successor without Cause or by the Grantee for Good Reason (as defined under his Employment Agreement), in either case within one (1) year after a Change of Control, then the following Tranches shall vest, and the date of termination shall be the Vesting Date: (i) all Tranches for which a Trigger Date has occurred and the 20 Closing Price Condition has been satisfied on or immediately before the Change of Control but which are not vested solely because the Grantee has not satisfied the Service Condition; and (ii) all other Tranches with a Target Share Price at or below the per-Share transaction consideration received by stockholders of the Company upon the Change of Control (as determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable definitive agreement that results in the Change of Control), provided that the Grantee executes and delivers the Release contemplated by the Employment Agreement to the Company within twenty-one (21) days following the date of termination, without revocation or modification.  Any Tranche that has not vested by the third anniversary of the Grant Date shall expire.

2.           Transferability.  The Performance Stock Units shall not be transferable.

3.           Termination of Employment.  Except as set forth in Paragraph 1, if a termination of employment of Grantee occurs prior to the vesting in full of the Performance Stock Units, any unvested portion of such Performance Stock Units shall be forfeited by Grantee.

4.           Triggering Conduct. As used in this Agreement, “Triggering Conduct” shall mean Grantee’s material breach of any provision of Section 7 of the Employment Agreement.

5.           Special Forfeiture/Repayment Rules.  For so long as Grantee continues as an employee with the Imprimis Group and for one year following termination of employment regardless of the reason, Grantee agrees not to engage in Triggering Conduct. If Grantee engages in Triggering Conduct during the time period set forth in the preceding sentence, then Grantee shall, within 30 days following written notice from the Company, pay to the Company an amount equal to (x) the aggregate gross gain realized or obtained by Grantee resulting from the settlement of all Performance Stock Units pursuant to Paragraph 6 hereof (measured as of the settlement date (i.e., the market value of the Performance Stock Units on such settlement date)) that have already been settled and that had vested at any time within three years prior to the Triggering Conduct (the “Look-Back Period”), minus (y) $1.00.  Grantee may be released from Grantee’s obligations under this Paragraph 5 if and only if the Committee (or its duly appointed designee) authorizes, in writing and in its sole discretion, such release.  Nothing in this Paragraph 5 constitutes a so-called “noncompete” covenant.  This Paragraph 5 does, however, prohibit certain conduct while Grantee is associated with the Imprimis Group and thereafter and does provide for the forfeiture or repayment of the benefits granted by this Agreement under certain circumstances.  No provisions of this Agreement shall diminish, negate or otherwise impact any separate agreement to which Grantee may be a party, including, but not limited to, any certificate of compliance or similar attestation/certification signed by Grantee; provided, however, that to the extent that any provisions contained in any other agreement are inconsistent in any manner with the restrictions and covenants of Grantee contained in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall take precedence and such other inconsistent provisions shall be null and void as to this Agreement.  Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are being made for the benefit of the Company in consideration of Grantee’s receipt of the Performance Stock Units, in consideration of employment, in consideration of exposing Grantee to the Company’s business operations and confidential information, and for other good and valuable consideration, the adequacy of which consideration is hereby expressly confirmed.  Grantee further acknowledges that the receipt of the Performance Stock Units and execution of this Agreement are voluntary actions on the part of Grantee and that the Company is unwilling to provide the Performance Stock Units to Grantee without including the restrictions and covenants of Grantee contained in this Agreement. Further, the parties agree and acknowledge that the provisions contained in Paragraphs 4 and 5 are ancillary to, or part of, an otherwise enforceable agreement at the time the agreement is made.

6.           Payment.  Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Agreement, and unless Grantee makes an effective election to defer receipt of the Shares represented by the Performance Stock Units, on the Vesting Date, Grantee shall be entitled to receive from the Company (without any payment on behalf of Grantee other than as described in Paragraph 10) the Shares represented by such Performance Stock Unit; provided, however, that where the vesting of any Restricted Stock Unit occurs in connection with Grantee’s termination without Cause, resignation for Good Reason or termination due to Disability, Section 409A of the Code applies to the distribution in connection with such acceleration and Grantee is a “specified employee” (determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code), Grantee shall be entitled to receive the corresponding Shares from the Company on the date that is the first day of the seventh month after Grantee’s “separation from service” with the Company (determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code).  Elections to defer receipt of the Shares beyond the date of settlement provided herein may be permitted in the discretion of the Committee pursuant to procedures established by the Committee in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

7.           Dividend Equivalents. Grantee shall not be entitled to receive any cash dividends on the Performance Stock Units.  However, to the extent the Company determines to pay a cash dividend to holders of the Common Stock, a Grantee shall, with respect to each Performance Stock Unit, be entitled to receive a cash payment from the Company on each cash dividend payment date with respect to the Shares with a record date between the Grant Date and the settlement of such unit pursuant to Paragraph 6 hereof, such cash payment to be in an amount equal to the dividend that would have been paid on the Common Stock represented by such unit.  Cash payments on each cash dividend payment date with respect to the Shares with a record date prior to a Vesting Date shall be accrued until the Vesting Date and paid thereon (subject to the same vesting requirements as the underlying Performance Stock Units award).  Elections to defer receipt of the cash payments in lieu of cash dividends beyond the date of settlement provided herein may be permitted in the discretion of the Committee pursuant to procedures established by the Company in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

8.           Right of Set-Off.  By accepting these Performance Stock Units, Grantee consents to a deduction from, and set-off against, any amounts owed to Grantee that are not treated as “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code by any member of the Imprimis Group from time to time (including, but not limited to, amounts owed to Grantee as wages, severance payments or other fringe benefits) to the extent of the amounts owed to the Imprimis Group by Grantee under this Agreement.

9.           No Stockholder Rights.  Grantee shall have no rights of a stockholder with respect to the Performance Stock Units, including, without limitation, any right to vote the Shares represented by the Performance Stock Units.

10.           Withholding Tax.

(a)           Generally.  Grantee is liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the Performance Stock Units (including taxes owed with respect to any cash payments described in Paragraph 7 hereof), regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Performance Stock Units.  The Company does not make any representation or undertaking regarding the tax treatment or the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant or vesting of the Performance Stock Units or the subsequent sale of Shares issuable upon settlement of the Performance Stock Units.  The Company does not commit and is under no obligation to structure the Performance Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Grantee’s tax liability.

(b)           Payment of Withholding Taxes.  Prior to any event in connection with the Performance Stock Units (e.g., vesting or settlement) that the Company determines may result in any domestic or foreign tax withholding obligation, whether national, federal, state or local, including any employment tax obligation (the “Tax Withholding Obligation”), Grantee is required to arrange for the satisfaction of the minimum amount of such Tax Withholding Obligation in a manner acceptable to the Company.  Unless Grantee elects to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation by an alternative means that is then permitted by the Company, Grantee’s acceptance of this Agreement constitutes Grantee’s instruction and authorization to the Company to retain on Grantee’s behalf the number of Shares from those Shares issuable to Grantee under the Award as the Company determines to be sufficient to satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation as owed when any such obligation becomes due.  The value of any Shares retained for such purposes shall be based on the Fair Market Value, as the term is defined in the Plan, of the Shares on the date of vesting of the Performance Stock Units.  To the extent that the Company retains any Shares to cover the Tax Withholding Obligation, it will do so at the minimum statutory rate, but in no event shall such amount exceed the minimum required by applicable law and regulations.  The Company shall have the right to deduct from all cash payments paid pursuant to Paragraph 7 hereof the amount of any taxes which the Company is required to withhold with respect to such payments.

11.           Governing Law/Venue for Dispute Resolution/Costs and Legal Fees.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of law, except to the extent superseded by the laws of the United States of America.  The parties agree and acknowledge that the laws of the State of Delaware bear a substantial relationship to the parties and/or this Agreement and that the Performance Stock Units and benefits granted herein would not be granted without the governance of this Agreement by the laws of the State of Delaware.  In addition, all disputes relating to this Agreement shall be resolved exclusively pursuant to the terms of Section 17 of the Employment Agreement between Grantee and the Company dated May 2, 2013.

12.           Action by the Committee.  The parties agree that the interpretation of this Agreement shall rest exclusively and completely within the sole discretion of the Committee.  The parties agree to be bound by the decisions of the Committee with regard to the interpretation of this Agreement and with regard to any and all matters set forth in this Agreement.  The Committee may delegate its functions under this Agreement to an officer of the Imprimis Group designated by the Committee (hereinafter the “designee”).  In fulfilling its responsibilities hereunder, the Committee or its designee may rely upon documents, written statements of the parties or such other material as the Committee or its designee deems appropriate.  The parties agree that there is no right to be heard or to appear before the Committee or its designee and that any decision of the Committee or its designee relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, whether particular conduct constitutes Triggering Conduct, shall be final and binding unless such decision is arbitrary and capricious.

13.           Prompt Acceptance of Agreement.  The Performance Stock Unit grant evidenced by this Agreement shall, at the discretion of the Committee, be forfeited if this Agreement is not manually executed and returned to the Company, or electronically executed by Grantee by indicating Grantee’s acceptance of this Agreement in accordance with the acceptance procedures set forth on the Company’s third-party equity plan administrator’s web site, within 90 days of the Grant Date.

14.           Electronic Delivery and Consent to Electronic Participation.  The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to the Performance Stock Unit grant under and participation in the Plan or future Performance Stock Units that may be granted under the Plan by electronic means.  Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company, including the acceptance of Performance Stock Unit grants and the execution of Performance Stock Unit agreements through electronic signature.

15.           Notices.  All notices, requests, consents and other communications required or provided under this Agreement to be delivered by Grantee to the Company will be in writing and will be deemed sufficient if delivered by hand, facsimile, nationally recognized overnight courier, or certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and will be effective upon delivery to the Company at the address set forth below:

Jun. 30, 2013

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

In April 2013, the Company entered into a lease agreement for 3,874 square feet of office space from May 1, 2013 to September 30, 2016, effective May 1, 2013. Monthly rent began on May 1, 2013 in the amount of $10,406, with a 3% increase in the base rent amount on an annual basis. The lease agreement allows for the monthly rent amount to be abated for five months at various times during the lease agreement. The total lease obligation is approximately $387,900. For the remaining fiscal year 2013, the Company’s lease commitment is approximately $62,400.

The Company also leases an office facility under a noncancelable operating lease, which expires on February 28, 2014, with $3,715 due monthly until expiration. For the remaining fiscal year 2013, the Company’s lease commitment is approximately $22,300.

Indemnities and Guarantees

In addition to the indemnification provisions contained in the Company’s charter documents, the Company generally enters into separate indemnification agreements with the Company’s directors and officers. These agreements require the Company, among other things, to indemnify the director or officer against specified expenses and liabilities, such as attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlements, paid by the individual in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the individual’s status or service as the Company’s director or officer, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct or conduct that is knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, and to advance expenses incurred by the individual in connection with any proceeding against the individual with respect to which the individual may be entitled to indemnification by the Company. The Company also indemnifies its lessor in connection with its facility lease for certain claims arising from the use of the facility. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

PCCA License Agreement

Professional Compounding Centers of America, or PCCA, has granted to the Company and its affiliates certain exclusive rights under PCCA’s proprietary formulations, other technologies and data, and the Company has agreed to pay to PCCA certain royalties on net sales relating to the sale of certain future products, which royalties range from 4.5% to 9% for each product, subject to certain minimum royalty payments. PCCA may terminate the PCCA License Agreement if the Company fails to commence efforts to research and develop future products within certain time periods, as set forth in the PCCA License Agreement.

PCCA Strategic Alliance Agreement

On February 18, 2013, we entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “Agreement”) with PCCA. Under the Agreement, PCCA has agreed that during the term of the Agreement, it will not introduce any of PCCA’s members or customers meeting certain criteria (the “Member/Customers”) to any third party whereby such third party licenses or otherwise acquires the intellectual property rights of such Member/Customer, without first presenting such an opportunity to the Company. PCCA may, but is not required to, present such opportunities to the Company, use reasonable efforts to facilitate an introductory meeting between the Member/Customer and the Company, and to further provide certain key technical assistance to a potential development project associated with the Member/Customer’s intellectual property rights. In the event the Company and a Member/Customer introduced to the Company by PCCA enter into a commercial agreement for the license or acquisition of the intellectual property rights owned by the Member/Customer, PCCA will be entitled to receive certain cash fees up to an aggregate of $100,000, as well as a commission based on net sales, if any, generated by the Company as a result of the acquired intellectual property rights. The Agreement has a term of one year and is automatically extended for successive one year periods unless either party gives the other written notice of non-renewal.

Buderer Asset Purchase Agreement

On June 11, 2013, we acquired intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from the compounding pharmacy operations of Buderer Drug Company, Inc. (“Buderer”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”). In addition, the Company has a right of first refusal on additional Buderer intellectual property and drug development opportunities. The APA provides that Buderer will cooperate with the Company in obtaining patent protection for the acquired intellectual property and that the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop and commercialize a product based on the acquired intellectual property.

In consideration for the acquisition of the intellectual property rights, the Company is obligated to make the following payments to Buderer: (1) one payment payable within 30 days after the issuance of the first patent in the United States arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (2) one payment payable within 30 days after the Company files the first Investigational New Drug application (“IND”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the first product arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); and (3) certain royalty payments based on the net receipts received by the Company in connection with the sale or licensing of any product based on the acquired intellectual property (if any), after deducting (among other things) the Company’s development costs associated with such product. If the Company does not file an IND for any product based on the acquired intellectual property within five years of the date of the APA, Buderer may terminate the agreement and the Company shall re-assign the acquired technology to Buderer.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Company and Background

Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Imprimis”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the commercial development of compounded drug formulations. Imprimis expects to use its proprietary Accudel™ drug delivery technologies, proprietary drug formulations, and its exclusive relationship with Professional Compounding Centers of America, Inc. (“PCCA”), to identify pharmaceutical development opportunities where there are significant unmet medical needs.

The Company’s most near term drug candidate, Impracor™, utilizes its patented Accudel topical cream formulation to enable highly targeted site-specific treatment. Impracor, which is a Phase 3 clinical trial pain product candidate, delivers the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), through the skin directly into the underlying tissues where the drug exerts its localized anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

Basis of Presentation

On February 28, 2012, the Company changed its name from Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. All prior references to Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. have been changed to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to reflect the change. On February 28, 2012, the Company effected a one-for-eight reverse stock split and on February 7, 2013, the Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split. All share and per share amounts and calculations in this report reflect the effects of these reverse stock splits.

Imprimis has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Principles of Consolidation

On September 17, 2007, Imprimis entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Imprimis, Transdel Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc., a privately held Nevada corporation (“Transdel Holdings”), and Trans-Pharma Acquisition Corp., a newly formed, wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of Imprimis (“Acquisition Sub”). Upon closing of the merger transaction contemplated under the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), Acquisition Sub merged with and into Transdel Holdings, and Transdel Holdings, as the surviving corporation, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Imprimis. As a result of the Merger, the former owners of Transdel Holdings became the controlling stockholders of Imprimis. Accordingly, the merger of Transdel Holdings and Imprimis is a reverse merger that has been accounted for as a recapitalization of Transdel Holdings.

Effective on September 17, 2007, and for all reporting periods thereafter, Imprimis’ operating activities, including any prior comparative period, include only those of Transdel Holdings. All references to share and per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been restated to reflect the aforementioned share exchange. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On June 20, 2011, Transdel Holdings was merged with Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., at which time Transdel Holdings ceased as a corporation, and Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. remains as the sole surviving corporation.

Development Stage Enterprise

The Company is a development stage company as defined under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance. All losses accumulated since inception have been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.

These condensed consolidated financial statements contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is a development stage enterprise and has incurred recurring operating losses, has had negative operating cash flows and has not recognized any significant revenues since July 24, 1998 (Inception). In addition, the Company has a deficit accumulated during the development stage of approximately $27.8 million at June 30, 2013, and anticipates incurring further losses through the remainder of the fiscal year 2013 and beyond. The Company has not yet generated significant sales revenue and has funded its operating losses to date through debt and equity offerings and borrowings under its line of credit. The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to cover its cash flow requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Research and Development

The Company expenses all costs related to research and development as they are incurred. Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities including salaries and benefits, and other overhead expenses, clinical trials, contract services and outsourced contracts.

Intellectual Property  

The costs of acquiring intellectual property rights to be used in the research and development process, including licensing fees and milestone payments, are charged to research and development expense as incurred in situations where we have not identified an alternative future use for the acquired rights, and are capitalized in situations where it has identified an alternative future use. No costs associated with acquiring intellectual property rights have been capitalized to date. Costs of maintaining intellectual property rights are expensed as incurred.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

The Company will recognize revenues when all of the following criteria have been met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company believes it will not generate significant revenues until one or more of its drug candidates are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Company is able to commercialize one or more of its product candidates. Also, effective sales and marketing support must be in place for either the drug candidates or any other products the Company may develop in order to generate any revenues. The FDA approval process is highly uncertain and the Company cannot estimate when it will generate revenues at this time from sales of its products.

Product Revenues

Determination of criteria (3) and (4) will be based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or for which services have not been rendered or are subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or services have been rendered or no refund will be required.

License Revenues

License arrangements may consist of non-refundable upfront license fees, data transfer fees, research reimbursement payments, exclusive licensed rights to patented or patent pending compounds, technology access fees, and various performance or sales milestones. These arrangements can be multiple element arrangements.

Non-refundable, up-front fees that are not contingent on any future performance by us, and require no consequential continuing involvement on our part, are recognized as revenue when the license term commences and the licensed data, technology and/or compound is delivered. Such deliverables may include physical quantities of compounds, design of the compounds and structure-activity relationships, the conceptual framework and mechanism of action, and rights to the patents or patents pending for such compounds. We defer recognition of non-refundable upfront fees if we have continuing performance obligations without which the technology, right, product or service conveyed in conjunction with the non-refundable fee has no utility to the licensee that is separate and independent of our performance under the other elements of the arrangement. In addition, if we have required continuing involvement through research and development services that are related to our proprietary know-how and expertise of the delivered technology, or can only be performed by us, then such up-front fees are deferred and recognized over the period of continuing involvement. Guaranteed minimum annual royalties are recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term.

During three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded $2,500 and $5,000 in revenues, respectively, for non-refundable royalty advances. In January 2013, the Company entered into a license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC granting resolutionMD, LLC rights to its Accudel delivery technology to be used for anti-cellulite formulations. Under the license agreement, the Company will receive $10,000 as a guaranteed minimum royalty amount for fiscal 2013 and, if applicable, additional royalty payments based on a percent (generally, 5%-7%) of net sales of any products covered under the license agreement. The license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC, unless terminated earlier, has a term of ten years following the first commercial sale of a product that is covered under the license agreement. The Company does not anticipate that the license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC will generate significant revenues for the 2013 fiscal year.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes”, or ASC 740. As of June 30, 2013, there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties in its condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and has not recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statements of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and California. The Company’s tax years for 2000 and forward are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities due to the carry forward of unutilized net operating losses.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company places its cash with financial institutions deemed by management to be of high credit quality. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides basic deposit coverage with limits to $250,000 per owner. At June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $17.7 million in cash deposits in excess of FDIC limits.

Deferred Offering Costs

On July 25, 2012, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) in connection with an underwritten public offering of its common stock (the “Public Offering”). At December 31, 2012, the Company had deferred offering costs of $596,281 for legal, accounting and other expenses directly related to the Public Offering. The Public Offering closed on February 13, 2013 (see Note 4), and these deferred offering costs and any other costs directly associated with the Public Offering subsequent to December 31, 2012 were netted against the cash proceeds to the Company arising from the Public Offering. As a result, there were no deferred offering costs at June 30, 2013.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of three to five years.

Deferred Rent

The Company accounts for rent expense related to its operating leases by determining total minimum rent payments on the leases over their respective periods and recognizing the rent expense on a straight-line basis. The difference between the actual amount paid and the amount recorded as rent expense in each fiscal year is recorded as an adjustment to deferred rent.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. GAAP establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The established fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:

· Level 1: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and must be used to measure fair value whenever available.

· Level 2: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

· Level 3: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. For example, level 3 inputs would relate to forecasts of future earnings and cash flows used in a discounted future cash flows method.

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities which are measured on a recurring basis. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, a restricted short-term investment, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued Phase 3 expenses and accrued payroll and related liabilities. The carrying amount of these financial instruments, except for the restricted short-term investment, approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company’s restricted short-term investment is carried at amortized cost which approximates fair value.

Stock-Based Compensation

All stock-based payments to employees, including grants of stock options to employees, directors and consultants, warrants and restricted stock grants, are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements based upon their fair values.

The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows FASB guidance. As such, the value of the applicable stock-based compensation is periodically remeasured and income or expense is recognized during their vesting terms. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is primarily recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. In accordance with FASB guidance, an asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, nonforfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor's balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company records the fair value of nonforfeitable equity instruments issued for future consulting services as prepaid consulting fees in its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company recorded stock-based compensation related to equity instruments granted to employees, directors and consultants as follows:

	For The Three		For The Three		For The Six		For The Six

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, such as stock options and warrants outstanding during the period.

Basic and diluted net loss applicable to common stock per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents (using the treasury stock or, “if converted” method) from convertible notes, preferred stock, stock options, unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and warrants were 3,138,004 and 1,476,987 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share for all periods presented because the effect is anti-dilutive.

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted loss per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

	For The Three			For The Three			For The Six			For The Six

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management are, among others, the valuation of contributed services, deferred taxes and stock-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period items and amounts have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used to prepare the 2013 condensed consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as previously reported.

Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” ASU 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, with an option for early adoption. The Company intends to adopt this guidance at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal year 2014, and is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This pronouncement was issued to enhance disclosure requirements surrounding the nature of an entity’s right to offset and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. This new guidance requires companies to disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to master netting arrangements. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This pronouncement was issued to address implementation issues about the scope of ASU 2011-11 and to clarify the scope of the offsetting disclosures and address any unintended consequences. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-01 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Novel Drug and Eye Care Northwest Asset Purchase Agreement

On August 8, 2013, we acquired intellectual property rights related to certain proprietary innovations from the compounding pharmacy operations of Novel Drug Solutions, LLC and from Eye Care Northwest, Inc. (together referred to as the “Sellers”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Novel APA”). As part of this acquisition we have acquired intellectual property assets, including a provisional patent application related to injectable ophthalmological compositions having anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties for the prevention of post-ophthalmic surgery complications. In addition, under the Novel APA, we have a right of first refusal on any of the Sellers’ additional intellectual property and drug development opportunities. The Novel APA provides that the Sellers will cooperate with us in obtaining patent protection for the acquired intellectual property, among other things, and that we will use commercially reasonable efforts to research, develop and commercialize a product based on the acquired intellectual property.

In consideration for the acquisition, we are obligated to make the following payments to the Sellers: (1) one payment payable within 30 days after the issuance of the first patent in the United States arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (2) one payment payable within 30 days after we file the first IND with the FDA for the first product arising from the acquired intellectual property (if any); (3) one payment payable within 30 days after we file the first New Drug application with the FDA for the first product; and (4) certain royalty payments based on the net receipts received by us in connection with the sale or licensing of any product based on the acquired intellectual property (if any), after deducting (among other things) our development costs associated with such product. If we do not file an IND for any product based on the acquired intellectual property within five years of the date of the Novel APA, the Sellers may terminate the Novel APA and we must re-assign the acquired technology to the Sellers.

NOTE 4. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Common Stock

In connection with the Public Offering, after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on February 7, 2013, the Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split of its common stock and on February 8, 2013, the Company's common stock began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis. All information included in this Quarterly Report has been adjusted to reflect the effect of the one-for-five reverse stock split.

In February 2013, the Company issued 219 shares of common stock at a price of $4.00 per share. The shares of common stock were issued to net settle total common stock options to purchase 1,030 shares of common stock pursuant to a cashless exercise provision.

During February and March 2013, the Company made payments totaling $191 in connection with cancelled, fractional share amounts of common stock (35 common stock share equivalents) in connection with the reverse stock split effected February 7, 2013.

On February 13, 2013, the Company closed the underwritten Public Offering of 1,840,000 shares of its common stock at a per share price to the public of $5.25, and received net proceeds of $8,140,435 after deducting underwriter fees and commissions and other offering expenses. The underwriters also exercised their option to purchase an additional 276,000 shares of common stock from the Company at $5.25 per share to cover over-allotments on March 14, 2013. Net cash proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option were $1,316,116. On February 7, 2013, the Company entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with MDB Capital Group, LLC. As contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, at the closing of the Public Offering and the over-allotment exercise, the underwriters received warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 179,860 shares, or 8.5% of the number of shares sold in the offering (including 8.5% of shares sold pursuant to their over-allotment option). The Warrants are exercisable at $5.25 per share (100% of the price of the common stock sold in the offering), commencing on the effective date of the offering and expiring five years from the effective date of the offering.

During June 2013, the Company issued 33,333 restricted shares of common stock to Dr. Robert Kammer, a director, valued at $243,333, in consideration for consulting services provided during the year ended December 31, 2012 and through June 30, 2013.

During June 2013, the Company issued 40,000 shares of common stock to Mark Baum, the Company’s CEO and a director, related to vesting of restricted stock units (“RSUs”).

Preferred Stock

At June 30, 2013, the Company had 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value, authorized and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Stock Option Plan

On September 17, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the Company’s 2007 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan, which was subsequently amended on November 5, 2008, February 26, 2012, July 18, 2012 and May 2, 2013 (as amended, the “Plan”). As of June 30, 2013, the Plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of an aggregate of 2,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The purpose of the Plan is to provide an incentive to attract and retain directors, officers, consultants, advisors and employees whose services are considered valuable, to encourage a sense of proprietorship and to stimulate an active interest of such persons in the Company’s development and financial success. Under the Plan, the Company is authorized to issue incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock. The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

A summary of the Plan activity with respect to options to purchase common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:

	Number of shares			Weighted Avg. Exercise Price		Weighted Avg. Remaining Contractual Life		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Options outstanding - January 1, 2013		905,806		$	5.26
Options granted		519,353		$	6.95
Options exercised		(1,030	)	$	4.00
Options cancelled/forfeit		(151,500	)	$	10.91
Options outstanding - June 30, 2013		1,272,629		$	5.27		5.81	$	4,458,714
Options exercisable		648,888		$	4.15		4.87	$	3,044,856
Options vested and expected to vest		1,210,255		$	5.21		5.76	$	4,317,328

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax amount of the proceeds, net of exercise price, which would have been received by option holders if all option holders had exercised and immediately sold all options with an exercise price lower than the market price on June 28, 2013, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $8.48 on that date.

In April 2013, the Company granted options to employees of the Company to acquire 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Plan, each with an exercise price of $6.00, the current market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date. The options each have 10-year terms and vest quarterly over three years.

In April 2013, the Company granted options to an employee of the Company to acquire 51,675 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Plan. The options have an exercise price of $9.00, the current market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date, a 10-year term and vest over a three year period, such that 33% of the options vest on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 67% of the options vest quarterly in equal installments thereafter over two years.

In May 2013, the Company granted options to Mark Baum, its CEO, to acquire 180,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Plan, in accordance with the terms of the Company’s amended and restated employment agreement with Mr. Baum. The options have an exercise price of $8.99, the current market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date, a 10-year term and vest quarterly over three years.

The table below illustrates the fair value per share determined by the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions used for valuing options granted to employees:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2013

Expected terms (in years)		5.8
Expected volatility		123%
Risk-free interest rate		0.86 %-1.00%

Effective April 1, 2012, the Company entered into an advisory agreement with director Dr. Robert J. Kammer (the “Advisory Agreement”) pursuant to which Dr. Kammer provides certain services to the Company in addition to his services as a director, including, but not limited to, providing management and advice regarding the operations of the Company’s clinical trials and assistance in the identification of new drug delivery technologies. As part of Dr. Kammer’s compensation under the Advisory Agreement, the Company granted to Dr. Kammer on April 1, 2012 an option to purchase up to 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $4.50 per share under the Plan. The option terminates on March 31, 2017 and vests over a two year period, with 15,000 options vested immediately upon issuance and an additional 1,875 options vesting monthly for the next twenty four months thereafter. In accordance with accounting guidance for stock-based compensation to consultants, the unvested portion of the option will be remeasured on an interim basis until the termination of the Advisory Agreement. The Advisory Agreement will terminate on the earlier of the completion of the services or the second anniversary of the date of the agreement. As of June 30, 2013, the remeasured fair value of the unvested portion of the stock option, based on the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model, was $129,481.

On January 13, 2013, the Company entered into a statement of work agreement with a clinical development consultant (the “SOW Agreement”). In partial consideration for the services provided under the SOW Agreement, the Company issued an option to purchase up to 11,428 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $8.75 per share. The option will terminate on January 13, 2017 and vests over an eighteen month period, with approximately 635 options vesting monthly for eighteen months beginning in February 2013. The remeasured fair value of the unvested portion of the stock option as of June 30, 2013, based on the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, was $50,901.

In May 2013, the Company granted 25,000 options to a consultant with an exercise price of $8.90 equal to the current market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date. The options have a 3-year term and vest in full in August 2013, following completion of certain services. As of June 30, 2013, the remeasured fair value of the stock option, based on the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, was $145,773. The amount of unamortized stock-based compensation that has not been expensed related to the unvested option grant is $80,175.

In May 2013, Dr. Balbir Brar resigned as President, but concurrent with his resignation entered into a senior advisory consultant agreement that allowed for his options related to his service to the Company as President to continue vesting as long as he continued service to the Company as a consultant. His original option agreement was modified to allow for the vesting to continue as a result of his service to the Company as a consultant. The unvested portion of the options prior to his resignation were treated as cancelled as of the date of the modification and subsequently re-issued. As of June 30, 2013, the remeasured fair value of the unvested portion of the stock option, based on the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, was $808,591.

As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $3,133,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the Plan. That expense is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.13 years.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Prior to April 1, 2013, expected volatilities were based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock and other factors, and following April 1, 2013 the expected volatility is based on the historical volatilities of the common stock of comparable publicly traded companies based on the Company’s belief the it has significantly changed its business operations and focus, and as a result, it currently has limited relevant historical data regarding the volatility of its stock price on which to base a meaningful estimate of expected volatility. The expected term of options granted was determined in accordance with the “simplified approach” as the Company has limited, relevant, historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The expected risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. The financial statement effect of forfeitures is estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, if the actual effect differs from those estimates. For option grants to employees and directors, the Company assigns a forfeiture factor of 10%. These factors could change in the future, affecting the determination of stock-based compensation expense in future periods. Utilizing these assumptions, the fair value is determined at the date of grant.

The table below illustrates the fair value per share determined by the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions used for valuing options granted to consultants:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Weighted-average fair value of options granted	$	6.73
Expected terms (in years)		2.5-4.25
Expected volatility		116% - 372%
Risk-free interest rate		0.30%-1.04%

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock unit, or RSU, awards are granted subject to certain restrictions, including performance and market based conditions. The grant-date fair value of the RSUs, which has been determined based upon the market value of the Company’s shares on the grant date, is expensed over the vesting period. Unvested portions of RSUs issued to consultants are remeasured on an interim basis until vesting criteria is met. On May 2, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company amended and restated the Plan to provide for the issuance of restricted stock units under the Plan.

On May 2, 2013, the Company entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with its CEO, Mark Baum. Among other things, the amended and restated employment agreement provides for the issuance of 1,250,000 RSUs to Mr. Baum, pursuant to the Plan. Of these RSUs, 200,000 vest on the third anniversary of the RSU grant based on continued service to the Company and the remaining 1,050,000 RSUs will vest based on the satisfaction of certain market-based and continued service conditions (the “Baum Performance Equity Award”). The Baum Performance Equity Award vest three years from the date of grant contingent upon the satisfaction of certain market-based vesting criteria during the three year period. The market-based vesting criteria are separated into five equal tranches and require that the Company achieves and maintains certain stock price targets ranging from $10 per share to $30 per share during the three year period following the grant date. With certain limited exceptions, Mr. Baum must be employed with the Company on the third anniversary of the grant date in order for the Baum Performance Equity Award to vest. These market-based vesting conditions are further described below:

Tranche	Number of Shares	Target Share Price
Tranche 1	19.05% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$10.00 or greater
Tranche 2	19.05% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$15.00 or greater
Tranche 3	19.05% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$20.00 or greater
Tranche 4	19.05% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$25.00 or greater
Tranche 5	23.80% of the Baum Performance Equity Award granted	$30.00 or greater

For each respective tranche to vest the following conditions must be met: (i) the Company’s common stock must have an official closing price at or above the Target Share Price for the respective tranche (each such date, a “Trigger Date”); (ii) during the period that includes the Trigger Date and the immediately following 19 trading days (the “Measurement Period”), the arithmetic mean of the 20 closing prices of the Company’s common stock during the Measurement Period must be at or above the Target Share Price for such tranche; and (iii) with certain limited exceptions, Mr. Baum must be in continuous service with the Company through the third anniversary of the grant date. Any unvested RSUs under the Baum Performance Equity Award will be forfeited on the third anniversary of the grant date.

Under the terms of the employment agreement with Mr. Baum, the earning and issuance of any shares under the Baum Performance Equity Award that would exceed the number of shares available for grant and/or the applicable annual per person grant limit for performance-based restricted stock units under the Plan are subject to approval by the Board of Directors and the Company’s stockholders of an increase in the number of shares available for grant and the applicable annual per person grant limit for performance-based restricted stock units under the Plan. The Board approved such increases on May 2, 2013. The current per person grant limit under the Plan for grants of performance-based restricted stock units is 600,000 shares. As a result, if such an amendment to the Plan is not approved by the Company’s stockholders, Mr. Baum will only be entitled to receive a maximum of 600,000 RSUs pursuant to the Baum Performance Equity Award. Effective upon approval of a Plan amendment by the Company’s stockholders and subsequent grant of the remaining 450,000 RSUs pursuant to the Baum Performance Equity Award, Mr. Baum has agreed to cancel 120,000 unvested RSUs previously granted to him in July 2012.

The initial fair value of the 200,000 RSUs and 600,000 RSUs pursuant to the Baum Performance Equity Award granted to Mr. Baum was $3,515,090 and as of June 30, 2013, the amount of unamortized stock based compensation that has not been expensed related to the unvested RSUs grants is $3,329,796. The 600,000 RSUs pursuant to the Baum Performance Equity Award were valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation with a three year life, 75% volatility and a risk free interest rate of 0.30%.

On May 24, 2013, the Company granted 100,000 RSUs to a consultant that will vest based on the satisfaction of certain market-based conditions subject to the consultant’s continued service, among other things. These market-based vesting conditions are further described below:

Tranche	Number of Shares	Target Share Price
Tranche 1	20,000 shares	$10.00 or greater
Tranche 2	20,000 shares	$15.00 or greater
Tranche 3	20,000 shares	$20.00 or greater
Tranche 4	20,000 shares	$25.00 or greater
Tranche 5	20,000 shares	$30.00 or greater

For each respective tranche to vest the following conditions must be met: (i) the Company’s common stock must have an official closing price at or above the Target Share Price for the respective tranche (each such date a “Trigger Date”); (ii) during the period that includes the Trigger Date and the immediately following 19 trading days (the “Measurement Period”), the arithmetic mean of the 20 closing prices during the Measurement Period must be at or above the Target Share Price for such tranche ((i) and (ii), the “Stock Price Conditions”); and (iii) with certain limited exceptions, 50% of the RSUs subject to a tranche will vest on the quarterly anniversary of the grant date following the satisfaction of the Stock Price Conditions with respect to that tranche, subject to the consultant being in continuous service with the Company on such quarterly anniversary and the remaining 50% shall vest on the second anniversary of the grant date if (a) the Stock Price Conditions have been satisfied with respect to that tranche prior to the second anniversary of the grant date and (b) the consultant is and has been in continuous service with the Company on the second anniversary of the grant date. All unvested RSUs will be forfeited on the second anniversary of the grant date.

The initial value of the 100,000 RSUs with market-based vesting conditions granted to the consultant was $288,000, and as of June 30, 2013 the remeasured fair value of those RSUs was $203,520. The amount of unamortized stock-based compensation that has not been expensed related to the unvested RSU grant is $195,040. The 100,000 RSUs are valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation with a 2 year life (based on the grant date), 80% volatility and risk free interest rates of 0.26%-0.36%.

In June 2013, the Board of Directors approved a one-time grant of 6,865 RSUs (34,325 RSUs total) to non-employee directors with an aggregate fair value of $271,854. The RSUs vest in full 13 months from the date of grant subject to the director being in continuous service with the Company. Once vesting conditions have been achieved, the RSUs will remain restricted until the directors resign.

A summary of the Company’s RSU activity and related information for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:

	Number of RSUs			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
RSUs outstanding - January 1, 2013		200,000		$	3.25
RSUs granted		934,325		$	4.36
RSUs vested		(40,000	)	$	3.25
RSUs cancelled		-			-
Balance at June 30, 2013		1,094,325		$	4.20

On July 18, 2012, a consultant was issued RSUs (40,000 shares) valued at $130,000, and as of June 30, 2013, the remeasured fair value of those RSUs was $339,200.

As of June 30, 2013, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSUs (including the 600,000 Baum PSUs authorized under the Plan) was approximately $4,189,000 (including recognized and unrecognized expenses of the remeasured fair value of consultant RSUs) which are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.49 years, based on estimated vesting schedules. The stock-based compensation for RSU’s was $302,094 and $297,019 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.

Warrants

From time to time, the Company issues warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to investors, note holders, underwriters and to non-employees for services rendered or to be rendered in the future.

In February 2013, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 30,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to a consultant with an exercise price of $5.25 per share. The warrants expire three years following the issuance date, and vest as follows: 10,000 shares vested immediately upon execution of the consulting agreement, and the remaining shares will vest evenly (4,000 shares) on each of the five monthly periods following the date of the consulting agreement provided the consultant continues to provide services to the Company as of the applicable vesting date.

A summary of the activity of the warrants for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:

	Number of Shares Subject to Warrants Outstanding			Weighted Avg. Exercise Price
Warrants outstanding - January 1, 2013		556,872		$	7.66
Granted		209,860		$	5.25
Exercised		-
Expired		(5,682	)	$	176.00

Weighted average remaining contractual life of the outstanding warrants in years - June 30, 2013		2.51

The fair value of each warrant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The table below illustrates the fair value per share determined by the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions used for valuing the warrants issued:

	2013

OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2013

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Company and Background

Company and Background

Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Imprimis”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the commercial development of compounded drug formulations. Imprimis expects to use its proprietary Accudel™ drug delivery technologies, proprietary drug formulations, and its exclusive relationship with Professional Compounding Centers of America, Inc. (“PCCA”), to identify pharmaceutical development opportunities where there are significant unmet medical needs.

The Company’s most near term drug candidate, Impracor™, utilizes its patented Accudel topical cream formulation to enable highly targeted site-specific treatment. Impracor, which is a Phase 3 clinical trial pain product candidate, delivers the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), through the skin directly into the underlying tissues where the drug exerts its localized anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

On February 28, 2012, the Company changed its name from Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. All prior references to Transdel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. have been changed to Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to reflect the change. On February 28, 2012, the Company effected a one-for-eight reverse stock split and on February 7, 2013, the Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split. All share and per share amounts and calculations in this report reflect the effects of these reverse stock splits.

Imprimis has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

On September 17, 2007, Imprimis entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Imprimis, Transdel Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc., a privately held Nevada corporation (“Transdel Holdings”), and Trans-Pharma Acquisition Corp., a newly formed, wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of Imprimis (“Acquisition Sub”). Upon closing of the merger transaction contemplated under the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), Acquisition Sub merged with and into Transdel Holdings, and Transdel Holdings, as the surviving corporation, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Imprimis. As a result of the Merger, the former owners of Transdel Holdings became the controlling stockholders of Imprimis. Accordingly, the merger of Transdel Holdings and Imprimis is a reverse merger that has been accounted for as a recapitalization of Transdel Holdings.

Effective on September 17, 2007, and for all reporting periods thereafter, Imprimis’ operating activities, including any prior comparative period, include only those of Transdel Holdings. All references to share and per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been restated to reflect the aforementioned share exchange. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On June 20, 2011, Transdel Holdings was merged with Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., at which time Transdel Holdings ceased as a corporation, and Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. remains as the sole surviving corporation.

Development Stage Enterprise

Development Stage Enterprise

The Company is a development stage company as defined under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance. All losses accumulated since inception have been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.

These condensed consolidated financial statements contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is a development stage enterprise and has incurred recurring operating losses, has had negative operating cash flows and has not recognized any significant revenues since July 24, 1998 (Inception). In addition, the Company has a deficit accumulated during the development stage of approximately $27.8 million at June 30, 2013, and anticipates incurring further losses through the remainder of the fiscal year 2013 and beyond. The Company has not yet generated significant sales revenue and has funded its operating losses to date through debt and equity offerings and borrowings under its line of credit. The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to cover its cash flow requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Research and Development

Research and Development

The Company expenses all costs related to research and development as they are incurred. Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities including salaries and benefits, and other overhead expenses, clinical trials, contract services and outsourced contracts.

Intellectual Property

Intellectual Property  

The costs of acquiring intellectual property rights to be used in the research and development process, including licensing fees and milestone payments, are charged to research and development expense as incurred in situations where we have not identified an alternative future use for the acquired rights, and are capitalized in situations where it has identified an alternative future use. No costs associated with acquiring intellectual property rights have been capitalized to date. Costs of maintaining intellectual property rights are expensed as incurred.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

The Company will recognize revenues when all of the following criteria have been met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company believes it will not generate significant revenues until one or more of its drug candidates are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Company is able to commercialize one or more of its product candidates. Also, effective sales and marketing support must be in place for either the drug candidates or any other products the Company may develop in order to generate any revenues. The FDA approval process is highly uncertain and the Company cannot estimate when it will generate revenues at this time from sales of its products.

Product Revenues

Determination of criteria (3) and (4) will be based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or for which services have not been rendered or are subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or services have been rendered or no refund will be required.

License Revenues

License arrangements may consist of non-refundable upfront license fees, data transfer fees, research reimbursement payments, exclusive licensed rights to patented or patent pending compounds, technology access fees, and various performance or sales milestones. These arrangements can be multiple element arrangements.

Non-refundable, up-front fees that are not contingent on any future performance by us, and require no consequential continuing involvement on our part, are recognized as revenue when the license term commences and the licensed data, technology and/or compound is delivered. Such deliverables may include physical quantities of compounds, design of the compounds and structure-activity relationships, the conceptual framework and mechanism of action, and rights to the patents or patents pending for such compounds. We defer recognition of non-refundable upfront fees if we have continuing performance obligations without which the technology, right, product or service conveyed in conjunction with the non-refundable fee has no utility to the licensee that is separate and independent of our performance under the other elements of the arrangement. In addition, if we have required continuing involvement through research and development services that are related to our proprietary know-how and expertise of the delivered technology, or can only be performed by us, then such up-front fees are deferred and recognized over the period of continuing involvement. Guaranteed minimum annual royalties are recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term.

During three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded $2,500 and $5,000 in revenues, respectively, for non-refundable royalty advances. In January 2013, the Company entered into a license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC granting resolutionMD, LLC rights to its Accudel delivery technology to be used for anti-cellulite formulations. Under the license agreement, the Company will receive $10,000 as a guaranteed minimum royalty amount for fiscal 2013 and, if applicable, additional royalty payments based on a percent (generally, 5%-7%) of net sales of any products covered under the license agreement. The license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC, unless terminated earlier, has a term of ten years following the first commercial sale of a product that is covered under the license agreement. The Company does not anticipate that the license agreement with resolutionMD, LLC will generate significant revenues for the 2013 fiscal year.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes”, or ASC 740. As of June 30, 2013, there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties in its condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and has not recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statements of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and California. The Company’s tax years for 2000 and forward are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities due to the carry forward of unutilized net operating losses.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company places its cash with financial institutions deemed by management to be of high credit quality. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides basic deposit coverage with limits to $250,000 per owner. At June 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $17.7 million in cash deposits in excess of FDIC limits.

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred Offering Costs

On July 25, 2012, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) in connection with an underwritten public offering of its common stock (the “Public Offering”). At December 31, 2012, the Company had deferred offering costs of $596,281 for legal, accounting and other expenses directly related to the Public Offering. The Public Offering closed on February 13, 2013 (see Note 4), and these deferred offering costs and any other costs directly associated with the Public Offering subsequent to December 31, 2012 were netted against the cash proceeds to the Company arising from the Public Offering. As a result, there were no deferred offering costs at June 30, 2013.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of three to five years.

Deferred Rent

Deferred Rent

The Company accounts for rent expense related to its operating leases by determining total minimum rent payments on the leases over their respective periods and recognizing the rent expense on a straight-line basis. The difference between the actual amount paid and the amount recorded as rent expense in each fiscal year is recorded as an adjustment to deferred rent.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. GAAP establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The established fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:

· Level 1: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and must be used to measure fair value whenever available.

· Level 2: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

· Level 3: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. For example, level 3 inputs would relate to forecasts of future earnings and cash flows used in a discounted future cash flows method.

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities which are measured on a recurring basis. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, a restricted short-term investment, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued Phase 3 expenses and accrued payroll and related liabilities. The carrying amount of these financial instruments, except for the restricted short-term investment, approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company’s restricted short-term investment is carried at amortized cost which approximates fair value.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

All stock-based payments to employees, including grants of stock options to employees, directors and consultants, warrants and restricted stock grants, are recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements based upon their fair values.

The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows FASB guidance. As such, the value of the applicable stock-based compensation is periodically remeasured and income or expense is recognized during their vesting terms. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is primarily recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. In accordance with FASB guidance, an asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, nonforfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor's balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company records the fair value of nonforfeitable equity instruments issued for future consulting services as prepaid consulting fees in its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company recorded stock-based compensation related to equity instruments granted to employees, directors and consultants as follows:

Basic and Diluted Loss per Common Share

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, such as stock options and warrants outstanding during the period.

Basic and diluted net loss applicable to common stock per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents (using the treasury stock or, “if converted” method) from convertible notes, preferred stock, stock options, unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and warrants were 3,138,004 and 1,476,987 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share for all periods presented because the effect is anti-dilutive.

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted loss per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

	For The Three			For The Three			For The Six			For The Six
	Months Ended			Months Ended			Months Ended			Months Ended

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management are, among others, the valuation of contributed services, deferred taxes and stock-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain prior period items and amounts have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used to prepare the 2013 condensed consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as previously reported.

Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” ASU 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, with an option for early adoption. The Company intends to adopt this guidance at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal year 2014, and is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This pronouncement was issued to enhance disclosure requirements surrounding the nature of an entity’s right to offset and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. This new guidance requires companies to disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to master netting arrangements. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This pronouncement was issued to address implementation issues about the scope of ASU 2011-11 and to clarify the scope of the offsetting disclosures and address any unintended consequences. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-01 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
