Operating loss for Q2 2019 was $1,400,400 compared to $920,900 for the same period in 2018. This increase included legal fees for fundraising, increased use of investor and public relations services, non-cash stock compensation relating to renewed vesting of stock options, and employee costs relating to the hire of a chief commercial officer with related travel for business development.
Loss per common share - basic and diluted- was $(2.22) for Q2 2019 compared to loss per common share of $(9.20) for the same period in 2018. The decreased loss per share resulted from the Company recording deemed dividends in the prior year relating to the beneficial conversion feature on the Series AA preferred stock and a price protection provision triggered on May 2, 2018 by the sale of Series AA preferred stock, affecting Debentures and Warrants to purchase Common Stock held by existing Debenture holders.
