Analysis · EVFM · Life Sciences
Evofem Biosciences has terminated its License and Supply Agreement with Windtree Therapeutics, Inc., which was intended to establish Windtree as a manufacturer and supplier of PHEXXI®. The termination, effective March 13, 2026, was mutually agreed upon because Windtree failed to establish the necessary manufacturing capabilities. While no termination fees are payable, this operational setback is significant for Evofem, especially given its recent 10-K filing on March 11, 2026, which disclosed a going concern warning, critical liquidity issues, and severe financial distress. The inability to secure a reliable manufacturing partner for its key product further complicates the company's efforts to generate revenue and address its precarious financial position.
