The Company's net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was approximately $8.1 million, or $0.24 per share on a non-diluted basis. The Company's net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $5.4 million, or $0.16 per share on a non-diluted basis. This included approximately $0.4 million in non-cash income related to the revaluation of warrants issued in June 2011.
TearLab also announced today that the March 2015 term loan agreement with CRG, under which the Company secured up to $35 million of available borrowing capacity, has been amended. In connection with this amendment, TearLab now has the option of accessing a second tranche of $10 million in funding through November 2015, which is not subject to any revenue milestones. As consideration, TearLab has agreed to grant CRG five year warrants allowing it to purchase up to 350,000 common shares of TearLab at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. All other terms and conditions from the original agreement remain in place.
Mr. Vamvakas also noted, "We are very pleased to amend our loan agreement with CRG, an important strategic financial partner for our company. Their flexible funding solutions provide us certainty on our near-term financing and additional runaway to allow us to focus on growing our revenue base."
