Segment performance

At the end of the quarter, Daré had approximately $5 million in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of approximately $12.6 million. G&A expenses were $2.4 million compared to $2.5 million in Q2 2024. R&D expenses were $1.4 million, a 71% decrease versus Q2 2024. The decrease in R&D was due to factors like increases in contra R&D expenses from nondilutive funding awards and decreases in manufacturing costs for Ovaprene and development costs for Sildenafil cream, partially offset by increases in costs for other clinical and preclinical R&D programs.
