Financial Results:

Total revenues for the three-month period ended September 30, 2021 amounted to $593,000, an increase of $83,000, or 16%, compared to $510,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2020.

Operating costs and expenses were $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2021, versus $1.9 million for the corresponding three-month period of 2020. The increase for the three-month period ended September 30, 2021 is mainly attributable to increases of $26,000 in R&D expense, $255,000 in manufacturing expenses, $37,000 in selling, general and administrative expenses, $17,000 in depreciation of tangible assets.

For the third quarter of 2021, the Company had an operating loss of $1.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $1.4 million for the comparable period of 2020.

Net comprehensive loss for the three-month period ended September 30, 2021 was $2.2 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, compared to net comprehensive loss of $1.6 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable period of 2020.
