Factors” beginning on page 4 of this prospectus and under similar headings in the documents incorporated by reference

Overview
We are a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical
company working to develop the first ophthalmic formulation of bevacizumab approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or
FDA, for use in retinal indications. Our goal is to launch the first and only approved bevacizumab in the United States, Europe,
Japan and other markets for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration, or wet AMD, diabetic macular edema, or DME,
and branch retinal vein occlusion, or BRVO.
ONS-5010 (LYTENAVA (bevacizumab-vikg)) is an
investigational ophthalmic formulation of bevacizumab under development to be administered as an intravitreal injection for the
treatment of wet AMD and other retinal diseases. Bevacizumab is a full-length, humanized anti-VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth
Factor) recombinant monoclonal antibody, or mAb, that inhibits VEGF and associated angiogenic activity. The study design for our
Phase 3 clinical program to evaluate ONS-5010 as an ophthalmic formulation of bevacizumab was reviewed at an end of Phase 2 meeting
with the FDA in April 2018, and we filed our investigational new drug application with the FDA in the first quarter of calendar
2019.
Our Phase 3 program for ONS-5010 in wet AMD
involves two clinical trials, which we refer to as NORSE 1 and NORSE 2, evaluating ONS-5010 against ranibizumab (LUCENTIS). Enrollment
in the NORSE 1 study is complete with 61 patients enrolled, all in Australia. The endpoint for NORSE 1 is the difference in mean
change from baseline in visual acuity at 11 months for ONS-5010 dosed on a monthly basis compared to LUCENTIS dosed using the alternative
PIER clinical trial dosing regimen of three-monthly doses followed by quarterly dosing. While not designed as a pivotal study,
NORSE 1 is one of two studies agreed upon with the FDA in April 2018 and will provide initial safety and efficacy data relating
to ONS-5010 in wet AMD patients. We expect to report top line data from NORSE 1 in August 2020.
The NORSE 2 study began enrolling wet AMD patients
in July 2019. NORSE 2 is expected to enroll a total of at least 220 patients and is being conducted in the United States. The primary
endpoint for NORSE 2 is the difference in proportion of participants who gain at least 15 letters in the best corrected visual
acuity, or BCVA, at 11 months for ONS-5010 dosed on a monthly basis compared to LUCENTIS dosed using the alternative PIER clinical
trial dosing regimen. Enrollment in NORSE 2 is scheduled to be completed no later than the end of May 2020, but we are currently
assessing the potential impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on NORSE 2 enrollment, if any.
In addition, we have received agreements from
the FDA on three Special Protocol Assessments, or SPAs, for three additional registration clinical trials for our ongoing Phase
3 program for ONS-5010. These SPAs cover the protocols for NORSE 4, a registration clinical trial to treat branch retinal vein
occlusion, or BRVO, and NORSE 5 and NORSE 6, two registration clinical trials to treat DME.
Currently, the cancer drug Avastin (bevacizumab)
is used off-label for the treatment of wet AMD and other retinal diseases such as DME and BRVO even though Avastin has not been
approved by regulatory authorities for use in these diseases. If the ONS-5010 clinical program is successful, it will support our
plans to submit for regulatory approval in multiple markets in 2021 including the United States, Europe and Japan, as well as other
markets. Because there are no approved bevacizumab products for the treatment of retinal diseases in such major markets, we are
developing ONS-5010 as a standard Biologics License Application and not using the biosimilar drug development pathway that would
be required if Avastin were an approved drug for the targeted diseases. If approved, we believe ONS-5010 has potential to mitigate
risks associated with off-label use of bevacizumab. Off-label use of bevacizumab is currently estimated to account for at least
50% of all wet AMD prescriptions in the United States.
Risks Associated with our Business
Our business is subject to numerous risks, as described under
the heading “Risk Factors” contained herein, and under similar headings in the documents that are incorporated by reference
into this prospectus.
Additional Information
For additional information related to our business and operations,
please refer to the reports incorporated herein by reference, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September
30, 2019 as filed with the SEC on December 19, 2019, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2019
as filed with the SEC on February 14, 2020 and our other Quarterly Reports and our Current Reports on Form 8-K as filed with the
SEC, as described in the section titled “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference.”
Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined
in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, enacted in April 2012. For so long as we remain an emerging growth
company, we are permitted and intend to rely on certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements, including
not being required to have our internal control over financial reporting audited by our independent registered public accounting
firm pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation
in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive
compensation and any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we
are no longer an emerging growth company. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) September 30, 2021
(the last day of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering occurs), (2) the last day of the
fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, (3) the last day of the fiscal year in which
we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates
exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th, and (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible
debt during the prior three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some or all of these available exemptions and we have
taken advantage of some reduced reporting requirements in our public filings. Accordingly, the information that we provide stockholders
may be different than the information you receive from other public companies in which you hold stock.
Company Information
We initially incorporated in January 2010 in New Jersey, in
October 2015, reincorporated in Delaware by merging with and into a Delaware corporation, changed our name to Outlook Therapeutics,
Inc. in November 2018. Our headquarters are located at 7 Clarke Drive, Cranbury, New Jersey, 08512, and our telephone number at
that location is (609) 619-3990. Our website address is www.outlooktherapeutics.com. The information contained on, or that can
be accessed through, our website is not part of, and is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus and should not be considered
to be part of this prospectus.
The Offering
The selling stockholders identified under the section titled
“Selling Stockholders,” or the selling stockholders, may offer and sell up to 4,331,103 shares of our common stock.
Our common stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “OTLK.” Shares of common stock that
may be offered under this prospectus will be fully paid and non-assessable. We will not receive any of the proceeds of sales by
the selling stockholders of any of the common stock covered by this prospectus. Throughout this prospectus, when we refer to the
shares of our common stock being registered on behalf of the selling stockholders for offer and sale, we are referring to the shares
of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants sold to the selling stockholders, as described below under the section titled
“Selling Stockholders.”
RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of
risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties discussed
below, as well as those under the heading “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
September 30, 2019, as filed with the SEC, and as incorporated by reference in this prospectus, as the same may be amended, supplemented
or superseded by the risks and uncertainties described under similar headings in the other documents that are filed by us after
the date hereof and incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently
believe are immaterial may also significantly impair our business operations. Please also read carefully the section above titled
“Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Our business could
be adversely affected by the effects of health pandemics or epidemics, including the recent outbreak of COVID-19, in regions where
we or third parties on which we rely have significant manufacturing facilities, concentrations of clinical trial sites or other
business operations, or materially affect our operations, including at our headquarters in New Jersey, which is currently subject
to a state executive order mandating shelter-in-place, and at our clinical trial sites, as well as the business or operations of
our manufacturers, CROs or other third parties with whom we conduct business.
Our business could
be adversely affected by the effects of health pandemics or epidemics, including the recent outbreak of COVID-19, which was declared
by the World Health Organization as a global pandemic, and is resulting in travel and other restrictions to reduce the spread of
the disease, including a New Jersey executive order, and several other state and local orders across the country, which, among
other things, direct individuals to shelter at their places of residence, direct businesses and governmental agencies to cease
non-essential operations at physical locations, prohibit certain non-essential gatherings, and order cessation of non-essential
travel. As a result of these recent developments, we have implemented work-from-home policies for all our employees. The effects
of these orders, government-imposed quarantines and our work-from-home policies may negatively impact productivity, disrupt our
business and could delay our ONS-5010 clinical programs and timelines, the magnitude of which will depend, in part, on the length
and severity of the restrictions and other limitations on our ability to conduct our business in the ordinary course. These and
similar, and perhaps more severe, disruptions in our operations could negatively impact our business, operating results and financial
condition.
Quarantines, shelter-in-place
and similar government orders, or the perception that such orders, shutdowns or other restrictions on the conduct of business operations
could occur, related to COVID-19 or other infectious diseases could impact personnel at third-party manufacturing facilities in
the United States and other countries, or the availability or cost of materials, which could disrupt our supply chain.
In
addition, our ongoing clinical trials are likely to be affected by the recent COVID-19 outbreak. Patient enrollment and recruitment
may be delayed due to local clinical trial site protocols designed to protect staff and patients from COVID-19 infection, and some
patients may not be able to comply with clinical trial protocols if quarantines or other restrictions impede patient movement or
interrupt healthcare services. Similarly, our ability to retain principal investigators
and site staff who, as healthcare providers, may have heightened exposure to COVID-19, could be disrupted, which would adversely
impact our clinical trial operations.
The spread of COVID-19,
which has caused a broad impact globally, may materially affect us economically. While the potential economic impact brought by,
and the duration of, the COVID-19 pandemic, may be difficult to assess or predict, it is currently resulting in significant disruption
of global financial markets. This disruption, if sustained or recurrent, could make it more difficult for us to access capital,
which could in the future negatively affect our liquidity. In addition, a recession or market correction resulting from the spread
of COVID-19 could materially affect our business and the value of our common stock.
The global pandemic
of COVID-19 continues to rapidly evolve. The ultimate impact of the recent COVID-19 outbreak or a similar health pandemic or epidemic
is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of potential delays or impacts on our business, our
clinical trials, healthcare systems or the global economy as a whole. These effects could have a material impact on our operations,
and we will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely.
Our common stock may be delisted
from Nasdaq and begin trading in the over-the-counter markets if we are not successful in regaining compliance with Nasdaq’s
continued listing standards, which may negatively impact the price of our common stock and our ability to access the capital markets.
On March 27, 2020, we received written
notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or Nasdaq, indicating that as of March 27, 2020, we were not in compliance with
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as the minimum bid price of our listed securities
was less than $1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days. Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have a
period of 180 calendar days, or until September 23, 2020, to regain compliance with the rule. To regain compliance, during this
180-day compliance period, the minimum bid price of our listed securities must close at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of
10 consecutive business days. If we are unable to regain compliance during the 180-day period, we anticipate that we will receive
a delisting determination from Nasdaq, following which we anticipate requesting a hearing to remain on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
If granted, such request will ordinarily suspend such delisting determination until a decision by Nasdaq subsequent to the hearing.
We intend to actively monitor the minimum bid price of our listed securities and, as appropriate, will consider available options
to resolve the deficiencies and regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, including effecting a reverse stock split.
If we are not successful in regaining
compliance, we anticipate that our common stock would begin trading on the over-the-counter market. Delisting from Nasdaq and trading
on the over-the-counter market could adversely affect the liquidity of our common stock. Stocks traded on the over-the-counter
market generally have limited trading volume and exhibit a wider spread between the bid/ask quotation, as compared to securities
listed on a national securities exchange. Consequently, you may not be able to liquidate your investment in the event of an emergency
or for any other reason.
If our common stock is delisted from
the Nasdaq, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:
|
·
|
A limited availability of market quotations
for our common stock;
|
|
·
|
A reduced amount of news and analyst coverage
for our company;
|
|
·
|
A decreased ability to issue additional
securities or obtain additional financing in the future;
|
|
·
|
Reduced liquidity for our stockholders;
|
|
·
|
Potential loss of confidence by partners
and employees; and
|
|
·
|
Loss of institutional investor interest
and fewer business development opportunities.
|
USE OF PROCEEDS
We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus
forms a part to permit the holders of certain outstanding warrants to purchase shares of our common stock described in the section
titled “Selling Stockholders” to resell such shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, or the
warrant shares. The selling stockholders will receive all of the net proceeds from sales of the warrant shares sold pursuant to
this prospectus and we will not receive any proceeds from the resale of any warrant shares offered by this prospectus by the selling
stockholders. However, upon the exercise of the warrants for 4,331,103 shares of our common stock by payment of cash, we will receive
aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $4.3 million. Any proceeds from the exercise of the warrants will be used for working
capital, and general corporate purposes, including in support of our ONS-5010 development program. We cannot predict when or if
the warrants will be exercised, and it is possible that the warrants may expire and never be exercised.
Selling
Stockholders
On February 24, 2020, we entered into a securities purchase
agreement with certain institutional and accredited investors, pursuant to which we agreed to sell and issue, in a registered direct
offering, offered pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 an aggregate of 7,598,426 shares of common
stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $7.72 million, before deducting fees to the placement agents and other estimated
offering expenses payable by us.
In a concurrent private placement, pursuant to the purchase
agreement, we offered and sold to the investors common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,799,213 shares of
our common stock. The purchase warrants have an exercise price per share equal to $0.9535, are immediately exercisable and expire
four years from the issuance date.
Pursuant to a letter agreement dated as of December 10, 2019,
we engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, or Wainwright, to act as the exclusive placement agent in connection with the registered
direct and private placement transaction. We issued placement agent warrants to purchase an aggregate of 531,890 shares of our
common stock, or the placement agent warrants. The placement agent warrants have an exercise price of $1.27 per share, are immediately
exercisable and expire five years from the issuance date. The shares of common stock underlying the placement agent warrants and
the purchase warrants are referred to collectively as the warrant shares.
Pursuant to the purchase agreements, we agreed to file the registration
statement of which this prospectus is a part to cover the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the purchase warrants
and to keep such registration statement effective until the date that is six months after no selling stockholder owns any warrants.
We are registering the resale of the warrant shares to permit
each of the selling stockholders identified below to resell or otherwise dispose of the warrant shares in the manner contemplated
under “Plan of Distribution” in this prospectus (as may be supplemented and amended). Throughout this prospectus, when
we refer to the shares of our common stock being registered on behalf of the selling stockholders, we are referring to the warrant
shares, and when we refer to the selling stockholders in this prospectus, we are referring to the purchasers of the warrants.
The selling stockholders may sell some, all or none of their
warrant shares. We do not know how long the selling stockholders will hold the warrant shares before selling them, and we currently
have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the selling stockholders regarding the sale or other disposition of any
of the warrant shares. The warrant shares covered hereby may be offered from time to time by the selling stockholders.
The following table sets forth the name of each selling stockholder,
the number and percentage of our outstanding shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders as of March
31, 2020, the number of warrant shares that may be offered under this prospectus, and the number and percentage of our outstanding
shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders assuming all of the warrant shares covered hereby are sold.
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect
to our common stock. Generally, a person “beneficially owns” shares of our common stock if the person has or shares
with others the right to vote those shares or to dispose of them, or if the person has the right to acquire voting or disposition
rights within 60 days. The number of shares in the column “Shares of Common Stock being Offered” represents all of
the warrant shares that a selling stockholder may offer and sell from time to time under this prospectus.
All information contained in the table below and the footnotes
thereto is based upon information provided to us by the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may have sold or transferred,
in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, some or all of their warrant shares or other securities
since the date on which the information in the table below if presented. Information about the selling stockholders may change
over time. The percentage of shares owned after the offering is based on 89,751,192 shares of common stock outstanding as of March
31, 2020.

Messrs. Rubinstein, Schwabe, Vasinkevich, and Worthman, selling
stockholders, are each affiliated with H.C. Wainwright, which acted as the placement agent in the concurrent private placement
of the purchase warrants for which we are registering the underlying shares in the registration statement of which this prospectus

investor in the concurrent private placement. From time to time, H.C. Wainwright may provide in the future various advisory, investment
and commercial banking and other services to us in the ordinary course of business, for which they have received and may continue
to receive customary fees and commissions. H.C. Wainwright acted as exclusive financial advisor for our December 2019 warrant restructuring
transaction, for which it received compensation. Except with respect to the foregoing, none of the selling stockholders has, or
within the past three years has had, any position, office or other material relationship with us.
Plan
of Distribution
We are registering the warrant shares issuable to the selling
stockholders to permit the resale of these shares of common stock by the selling stockholders from time to time from after the
date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholders of the warrant shares.
We will bear the fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of common stock, however the selling stockholders
will bear legal and advisor fees, commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their respective sales of the warrant shares.
Each selling stockholder may, from time to time, sell any or
all of its warrant shares covered hereby on The Nasdaq Capital Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on
which the shares can be traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the
time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or privately negotiated prices. A selling stockholder may use
any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
|
·
|
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits purchasers;
|
|
·
|
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares
as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
|
|
·
|
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer
for its account;
|
|
·
|
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
exchange;
|
|
·
|
privately negotiated transactions;
|
|
·
|
underwritten transactions;
|
|
·
|
settlement of short sales, to the extent permitted by law;
|
|
·
|
in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the selling
stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
|
|
·
|
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions,
whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
|
|
·
|
through the distribution of the common stock by any selling stockholder
to its partners, members or stockholders;
|
|
·
|
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
|
|
·
|
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
|
The selling stockholders may also sell the shares of common
stock under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
If underwriters are used in the sale, the shares of common stock
will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including
negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. In connection with
any such underwritten sale of shares of common stock, underwriters may receive compensation from the selling stockholders, for
whom they may act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. If the selling stockholders use an underwriter
or underwriters to effectuate the sale of shares of common stock, we and/or they will execute an underwriting agreement with those
underwriters at the time of sale of those shares of common stock. To the extent required by law, the names of the underwriters
will be set forth in a prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that
includes the prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus used by the underwriters to sell those securities. The obligations
of the underwriters to purchase those shares of common stock will be subject to certain conditions precedent, and unless otherwise
specified in a prospectus supplement, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the shares of common stock offered by
such prospectus supplement if any of such shares of common stock are purchased. Any public offering price and any discounts or
concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange
for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders
(or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except
as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission
in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440-1.
In connection with the sale of the shares of common stock or
interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions,
which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling
stockholders may also sell the shares of common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions or
to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales, or loan or pledge the shares of common stock to broker-dealers that
in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers
or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or
other financial institution of shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial
institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). Each selling stockholder
has informed us that it does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the
common stock
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that
are involved in selling the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities
Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such selling stockholders, broker-dealers or agents
and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the
Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act
will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities
of, including but not limited to, Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. The selling stockholders have advised us that there is no underwriter or coordinating
broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the selling stockholders.
We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by
us incident to the registration of the shares of common stock of the selling stockholders. We have also agreed to indemnify the
selling stockholders holding purchase warrants against losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act, with respect to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
The selling stockholders will be subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 172 thereunder, unless an exemption therefrom is available.
We agreed to cause the registration statement of which this
prospectus is a part to remain effective until the date on which no selling stockholder owns any purchase warrants or common stock
issuable upon exercise thereof. The shares of common stock will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers
if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the shares of common stock covered hereby may
not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration
or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act,
any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock may not simultaneously engage in market making activities
with respect to the shares of common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement
of the distribution. In addition, the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of common
stock by the selling stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders
and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance
with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
The selling stockholders may decide not to sell any or all of
the shares of common stock we registered on behalf of the selling stockholders pursuant to the registration statement of which
this prospectus forms a part.
Once sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus
forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the securities being offered by this prospectus
will be passed upon for us by Cooley LLP.
EXPERTS
The consolidated financial statements of Outlook Therapeutics,
Inc. as of September 30, 2019 and 2018, and for the years then ended, have been incorporated by reference in this prospectus in
reliance upon the report of KPMG LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, incorporated by reference herein, and upon
the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing. The audit report covering the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended September 30, 2019 contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Company has incurred recurring losses
and negative cash flows from operations and has stockholders’ deficit of $16.1 million, $6.7 million of convertible senior
secured notes that become due on December 22, 2019, $3.6 million of unsecured indebtedness due on demand and $1.0 million of unsecured
indebtedness also due on demand, but subject to a forbearance agreement through March 2020, that raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.
