SPECIAL CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain matters discussed in this report, including matters discussed under the captions “Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” may constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

the success of the potential commercialization of ublituximab or any future products or combinations of products, including the anticipated rate and degree of market acceptance and pricing and reimbursement;

●

the initiation, timing, progress and results of our pre-clinical studies and clinical trials;

●

our ability to advance drug candidates into, and successfully complete, clinical trials;

●

our ability to establish and maintain contractual relationships, on commercially reasonable terms, with third parties for manufacturing, distribution and supply, and a range of other support functions for our clinical development and commercialization efforts;

SUMMARY RISK FACTORS

Our business is subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before making an investment decision. The risks described below are a summary of the principal risks associated with an investment in us and are not the only risks we face. You should carefully consider these risks, the risk factors in Item IA, and the other reports and documents that we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Risks Related to Drug Development and Regulatory Approval

●	If we are unable to obtain regulatory approval for our product candidates and ultimately cannot commercialize one or more of them, or experience significant delays in doing so, our business will be materially harmed.

●	Our product candidates may cause undesirable side effects that could delay or prevent their regulatory approval or significantly limit their commercial profile following marketing approval, if any.

●

Because results of preclinical studies and early clinical trials are not necessarily predictive of future results, any product candidate we advance may not have favorable results in later clinical trials. Moreover, interim, “top-line,” and preliminary data from our clinical trials that we announce or publish may change, or the perceived product profile may be impacted, as more patient data or additional endpoints are analyzed.

●	Any product candidates we may advance through clinical development are subject to extensive regulation, which can be costly and time consuming, cause unanticipated delays, or prevent the receipt of the required approvals.

Risks Related to Commercialization

●	We cannot predict when or if we will obtain regulatory approval to commercialize our product candidates, including ublituximab in RMS.

●	We have limited experience operating as a commercial company, and, as a result, the marketing and sale of ublituximab in RMS, if approved, may be less successful than anticipated.

●	If any of our future product candidates receive approval but do not achieve broad market acceptance among physicians, patients, payors, and the medical community, the revenues that we generate from product sales will be limited.

●

If the market opportunities for any products for which we may receive approval, including ublituximab in RMS, are smaller than we estimate or if any approval that we obtain is based on a narrower patient population or the labeling includes warnings or limitations that are not acceptable to patients or healthcare providers, our revenue will be adversely affected.

●	We face substantial competition for treatments for our target indications, which may result in others commercializing drugs before or more successfully than we do, resulting in the reduction or elimination of our commercial opportunity.

●	If we are unable to establish additional commercial capabilities and infrastructure to support a potential launch in RMS or expansion into geographies outside the U.S., we may be unable to generate sufficient revenue to sustain our business.

●	Product liability lawsuits could cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit product commercialization.

Risks Related to our Financial Position and Need for Additional Capital

●	We have incurred significant operating losses since our inception and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

●	We will need to raise substantial additional funding. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we will be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate some of our drug development programs or commercialization efforts.

●	Our level of indebtedness and debt service obligations could adversely affect our financial condition and may make it more difficult for us to fund our operations.

Risks Related to Governmental Regulation of the Pharmaceutical Industry

●	We are subject to extensive regulation, including new legislative and regulatory proposals, that may increase our compliance costs and adversely affect our ability to market our products, obtain collaborators and raise capital.

●	If we fail to comply with various healthcare laws and regulations, we may incur losses or be subject to liability.

●	If we fail to comply with regulatory requirements, any product for which we obtain marketing approval could be subject to restrictions or withdrawal from the market and we may be subject to penalties.

Table of Contents

Risks Related to our Dependence on Third Parties

●

If the third parties on which we rely to conduct our clinical trials and generate clinical, preclinical and other data necessary to support our regulatory applications do not perform their services as required, we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for or commercialize our product candidates when expected or at all.

●

Our reliance on third parties for commercial and clinical supply of our products and product candidates increases the risk that we will not have sufficient quantities of our products or product candidates or such quantities at an acceptable cost or quality, which could delay, prevent or impair our development or commercialization efforts.

●	Because we have in-licensed our products and product candidates from third parties, any dispute with or non-performance by our licensors will adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize the applicable product.

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

●

Our success depends upon our ability to obtain and protect our intellectual property, and if the scope of our patent protection obtained is not sufficiently broad, our competitors could develop and commercialize products similar or identical to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize our products may be impaired.

●	Our patent protection could be reduced or eliminated for non-compliance with various procedural and other requirements imposed by governmental patent agencies.

●	We may need to license certain intellectual property from third parties, and such licenses may not be available or may not be available on commercially reasonable terms.

●	If we or our partners are sued for infringing intellectual property rights of third parties, it will be costly and time consuming, and an unfavorable outcome in that litigation would have a material adverse effect on our business.

●	If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our trade secrets, our business may be significantly harmed.

Risks Related to COVID-19

●	Public health issues, and specifically the pandemic caused by COVID-19, could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations and other aspects of our business.

●

Patients and healthcare providers have raised concerns that immunosuppressive products, like anti-CD20 antibodies and other B-cell targeted agents, may increase the risk of acquiring COVID-19 or lead to more severe complications upon infection. These concerns may impact the commercial potential for ublituximab and other immunosuppressive products that we have in development.

General Risk Factors

●

We will need to develop and expand our business, and we may encounter difficulties in managing this development and expansion.

●

Our ability to continue our clinical development and commercialization activities will depend on our ability to attract and maintain key management and other personnel.

●

Certain of our executive officers, directors and other stockholders own more than 5% of our outstanding common stock and may be able to influence our management and the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders for approval.

●

Certain anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law could make a third-party acquisition more difficult, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay for our common stock.

●

Our stock price is, and we expect it to remain, volatile, which could limit investors’ ability to sell stock at a profit and could subject us to securities and shareholder derivative litigation.

The foregoing is only a summary of some of our risks. These and other risks are discussed more fully in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item IA and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (our Risk Factors).

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this report to “TG,” “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to TG Therapeutics, Inc. and our subsidiaries.

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

TG Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the acquisition, development and commercialization of novel treatments for B-cell diseases. In addition to a research pipeline including several investigational medicines, TG has completed a Phase 3 program for ublituximab, an investigational glycoengineered monoclonal antibody, to treat patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (RMS). We also actively evaluate complementary products, technologies and companies for in-licensing, partnership, acquisition and/or investment opportunities.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), for interim financial information and with the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, they may not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. All adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature and are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Nevertheless, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The accompanying condensed December 31, 2021 balance sheet has been derived from these statements. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other interim period.

In December 2018, the Company created an Australian corporation, TG Therapeutics AUS Pty Ltd. (TG AUS), as a wholly-owned subsidiary. This corporation’s functional currency, the Australian dollar, is also its reporting currency, and its financial statements are translated to U.S. dollars, the Company’s reporting currency, prior to consolidation. The activities of TG AUS result in immaterial currency translation adjustments and, thus, are included in Other Income/Expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, and all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have incurred operating losses since our inception, and expect to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future and may never become profitable. As of June 30, 2022, we have an accumulated deficit of $1.4 billion.

Our major sources of cash have been proceeds from private placement and public offering of equity securities, and from our loan and security agreements executed with Hercules Capital, Inc. (Hercules) (see Note 6 for more information). Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. Substantially all our operating losses have resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from selling, general and administrative costs associated with our operations, including our commercialization activities. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future. Because we have withdrawn UKONIQ (umbralisib) from sale, we have no marketed products currently. We expect to continue to incur significant research and development expenses and we expect to continue to incur significant commercialization and outsourced-manufacturing expenses as we plan for the possible commercialization of ublituximab in RMS.

We evaluated whether there are any conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year beyond the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As of June 30, 2022, we had $231.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, and investment securities. Based on our available

cash resources and cash flow projections as of the date the consolidated financial statements were available for issuance, we believe that our cash and cash equivalents, and investment securities as of June 30, 2022 will provide sufficient liquidity for more than a twelve-month period from the date of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The actual amount of cash that we will need to operate is subject to many factors, including, but not limited to, the costs and timing of clinical and commercial manufacturing supply arrangements for each product and product candidate, and the costs of expanding our sales, distribution and other commercialization capabilities. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing pharmaceuticals, we are unable to predict when we will become profitable, if at all. Even if we do become profitable, we may not be able to sustain or increase our profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our ability to become profitable depends upon our ability to generate substantial revenue. We are dependent upon significant future financing to provide the cash necessary to execute our long-term operations. However, the Company cannot be certain that additional financing will be available when needed or that, if available, financing will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or its existing stockholders.

Our common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market and trades under the symbol “TGTX.”

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except updated herein or as it relates to the adoption of new accounting standards during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per share of our common stock is calculated by dividing net loss applicable to the common stock by the weighted-average number of our common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share of common stock is the same as basic net loss per share of common stock since potentially dilutive securities from stock options, stock warrants and convertible preferred stock would have an antidilutive effect either because we incurred a net loss during the period presented or because such potentially dilutive securities were out of the money and the Company realized net income during the period presented. The cumulative amounts of potentially dilutive securities excluded from the calculation were 13,512,092 securities and 13,255,355 securities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The following table summarizes our potentially dilutive securities at June 30, 2022 and 2021:


	Six Months Ended

NOTE 2 REVENUE RECOGNITION

Gross-to-Net Sales Adjustments

To date, our only source of product revenue has been from the U.S. sales of UKONIQ, which we began shipping to our customers in February 2021. On April 15, 2022, we announced our voluntary withdrawal of UKONIQ from sale. Furthermore, on May 27, 2022, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a notice in the Federal Register officially withdrawing approval of the New Drug Application (NDA) for UKONIQ, effective May 31, 2022. This notice required stopping all distribution of UKONIQ and the return of all remaining inventory from the Company’s customers as soon as possible. We record our best estimate for sales discounts and allowances to which customers are likely to be entitled. The reconciliation of gross product sales to net product sales by each significant category of gross-to-net adjustments was as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:


(in thousands)	Three months ended				Six months ended

NOTE 4 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of inputs, or assumptions, used in the determination of fair value and requires financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

●

Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

●

Level 2 inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable; and

●

Level 3 unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and loan and interest payable approximate their carrying value.

At the time of our merger (we were then known as Manhattan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Manhattan)) with Ariston Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Ariston) in March 2010, Ariston issued $15.5 million of five-year 5% notes payable (the 5% Notes) in satisfaction of several note payable issuances. The 5% Notes and accrued and unpaid interest thereon are convertible at the option of the holder into common stock at the conversion price of $1,125 per share. We have no obligations under the 5% Notes aside from the conversion feature.

Table of Contents

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, cash equivalents consisting of money market funds, accounts receivable, accounts payable and loan payable. Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and interest payable are stated at their respective historical carrying amounts, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying value of loan payable on the Company’s balance sheet is estimated to approximate its fair value as the interest rate approximates the market rate for loans with similar terms and risk characteristics.

We have no Level 1 or Level 2 instruments. Our Level 3 instrument amounts represent the fair value of the 5% Notes and related accrued interest. The following table summarizes the changes in Level 3 instruments during the six months ended June 30, 2022:


(in thousands)
Balance at December 31, 2021		360
Interest accrued on face value of 5% Notes		269
Change in fair value of Level 3 liabilities		(545)
Balance at June 30, 2022	$	84

The change in the fair value of the Level 3 liabilities is reported in other (income) expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 5 STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Preferred Stock

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value, with rights senior to those of our common stock, issuable in one or more series. Upon issuance, we can determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof. These rights, preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of common stock.

Common Stock

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 175,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.

On September 5, 2019, we filed an automatic “shelf registration” statement on Form S-3 (the 2019 WKSI Shelf) as a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, which registered an unlimited and indeterminate amount of debt or equity securities for future issuance and sale. The 2019 WKSI Shelf was declared effective in September 2019. In connection with the 2019 WKSI Shelf, we entered into an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the 2020 ATM) with Jefferies LLC, Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and B. Riley Securities, Inc. (each a 2020 Agent and collectively, the 2020 Agents), relating to the sale of shares of our common stock. Under the 2020 ATM, we paid the 2020 Agents a commission rate of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of any shares of common stock. In November 2020, we entered into an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the 2021 ATM) with the same terms and agents (each a 2021 Agent and collectively, the 2021 Agents) as the 2020 ATM. The 2021 ATM has replaced the 2020 ATM as the only active ATM program.

We had no activity on the 2021 ATM during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

The 2019 WKSI Shelf is currently our only active shelf-registration statement. We may offer any combination of the securities registered under the 2019 WKSI Shelf from time to time in response to market conditions or other circumstances if we believe such a plan of financing is in the best interests of our stockholders. We may need to file additional shelf-registration statements in the future to provide us with the flexibility to raise additional capital to finance our operations as needed.

Warrants

The Company’s only outstanding warrants are the warrants issued to Hercules as part of our the Loan Agreement and Amended Loan Agreement (as such terms are defined below) to purchase 147,058 and 115,042 shares of our common stock with exercise prices of $4.08 and $17.95, respectively. See Note 6 for further details. There will not be any ongoing stock compensation expense volatility associated with these warrants.

NOTE 6 LOAN PAYABLE

On February 28, 2019 (the Closing Date), we entered into a term loan facility with Hercules Capital, Inc. (Hercules or Lender), which provided us with the capacity to borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $60.0 million (Term Loan), the proceeds of which were used for research and development programs and for general corporate purposes. The Term Loan is governed by a loan and security agreement, dated February 28, 2019 (the Loan Agreement), which provides for up to four separate advances. The first advance of $30.0 million was drawn on the Closing Date. An additional $30.0 million under the Term Loan was previously available upon the completion of different milestones and time points that have now lapsed.

Table of Contents

On December 30, 2021 (the First Amendment Closing Date), the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the Amended Loan Agreement) with Hercules Capital, Inc. The Amended Loan Agreement amended the terms of the Loan Agreement to, among other things, (i) increase the aggregate principal amount of the loan, available at the Company’s option, from $60.0 million to $200.0 million (the Amended Term Loan), (ii) issue a first advance of $70.0 million drawn at the First Amendment Closing Date, a portion of which was used to refinance the current outstanding loan balance of approximately $7.8 million and pay for expenses incurred by the Lender in executing the agreements, (iii) change the draw amounts and dates available in subsequent tranches, (iv) extend the maturity date of the facility from the original March 1, 2022 to January 1, 2026, (v) reset and extend the interest only period from April 1, 2021 to February 1, 2025 and extendable to August 1, 2025 subject to the achievement of certain performance milestones, and (vi) modify the cash interest rate to be the greater of either (a) the “prime rate” as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 2.15%, and (b) 5.40%. In addition to the cash interest rate, the principal balance will accrue paid-in-kind interest at a rate of 3.45%, which amount will be capitalized and added to the outstanding principal balance of the Amended Term Loan and payable at the maturity date of the Amended Loan Agreement.The performance milestones are based on achievement of certain U.S. Food and Drug Administration approvals and impact the potential extension of the interest only period, access to future advances under the Loan Agreement and minimum cash levels required under the Amended Loan Agreement.

The Amended Loan Agreement contains financial covenants from and after October 15, 2022 that require the Company to maintain certain levels of unrestricted cash and additional financial covenants related to market capitalization and unrestricted cash commencing on July 1, 2023 at any time when the Amended Term Loan advances made under the Amended Loan Agreement are greater than $70 million.

The Amended Loan Agreement also contains warrant coverage of 2.95% of the total amount funded. A warrant was issued by the Company to Hercules to purchase 115,042 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $17.95 for the initial amount funded at closing (the Warrant). The Warrant shall be exercisable for seven years from the date of issuance. Hercules may exercise the Warrant either by (a) cash or check or (b) through a net issuance conversion.

In addition, the Company is required to pay a final payment fee equal to 5.95% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Advances (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

The Company may, at its option, prepay the Amended Term Loan in full or in part, subject to a prepayment penalty equal to (i) 2.0% of the principal amount prepaid if the prepayment occurs prior to the first anniversary of the First Amendment Closing Date, (ii) 1.5% of the principal amount prepaid if the prepayment occurs on or after the first anniversary and prior to the second anniversary of the First Amendment Closing Date, and (iii) 1.0% of the principal amount prepaid if the prepayment occurs on or after the second anniversary and prior to the third anniversary of the First Amendment Closing Date.

The Company evaluated whether the Amended Term Loan entered into in December 2021 represented a debt modification or extinguishment of the Term Loan in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments. As a result of the repayment and retirement of the Term Loan, the Term Loan was accounted for by the Company under the extinguishment accounting model. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.2 million on the Company’s statement of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, representing the write-off of deferred financing costs.

Table of Contents

The Company estimated the fair value of the Warrant using the Black-Scholes model based on the following key assumptions:


	Amended Term Loan
Exercise price	$	17.95
Common share price on date of issuance	$	19.35
Volatility		184.4	%
Risk-free interest rate		1.44	%
Expected dividend yield		—	%
Contractual term (in years)		7.00 years

The Company incurred financing expenses of $7.4 million (including the fair value of the Warrant) related to the Amended Loan Agreement which are recorded as debt issuance costs and as an offset to loan payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The debt issuance costs are being amortized over the term of the debt using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method, and will be included in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Amortization of debt issuance costs was $0.5 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively and $0.9 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2022, the remaining unamortized balance of debt issuance costs was $6.5 million.

The loan payable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, is as follows:

NOTE 7 LEASES

In October 2014, we entered into an agreement (the Office Agreement) with Fortress Biotech, Inc. (FBIO) to occupy approximately 45% of the 24,000 square feet of New York City office space leased by FBIO. The Office Agreement requires us to pay our respective share of the average annual rent and other costs of the 15-year lease. We approximate an average annual rental obligation of $1.4 million under the Office Agreement. We began to occupy this new space in April 2016, with rental payments beginning in the third quarter of 2016. The initial commitment period of the 45% rate was for a period of three (3) years. We and FBIO currently determine actual office space utilization annually and if our utilization differs from the amount we have been billed, we will either receive credits or be assessed incremental utilization charges. As of June 30, 2022, the allocation rate is 63% and will be evaluated again in September 2022 for the following rent year. Also in connection with this lease, we have pledged $1.3 million to secure a line of credit as a security deposit for the Office Agreement, which has been recorded as restricted cash in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In October 2019, we finalized a five-year lease for office space in New Jersey (the NJ Lease). We approximate an average annual rental obligation of $0.3 million under the NJ Lease. We took possession of this space in October 2019, with rental payments beginning in November 2019. We incurred rent expense of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

In October 2021, we finalized a five-year lease for office space in North Carolina (the NC Lease). We approximate an average annual rental obligation of $0.2 million under the NC Lease. We took possession of this space in February 2022, with rental payments beginning in April 2022. We incurred rent expense of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Table of Contents

At January 1, 2019, we recognized a lease liability and corresponding Right-of-Use (ROU) asset of $9.5 million and $8.1 million, respectively, based on the present value of the remaining lease payments for all of our leased office spaces, the majority of which is comprised of our New York City office space. The present values of our lease liability and corresponding ROU asset are $11.5 million and $8.8 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2022. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 2 years to 10 years. One lease has a renewal option to extend the lease for an additional term of two years. The following components of lease expense are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:
