SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions.  Forward-looking statements are all statements, other than statements of historical facts, that discuss our current expectation and projections relating to our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans, and objectives of management. These statements may be preceded by, followed by, or include the words "aim," "anticipate," "believe," "can," "could," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "intend," "likely," "may," "outlook," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "seek," "should," "will," "would," the negatives or plurals thereof, and other words and terms of similar meaning, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.
We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. Although we believe that our assumptions made in connection with the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that the assumptions and expectations will prove to be correct. You should understand that the following important factors could affect our future results and could cause those results or other outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements:
the progress and results of our preclinical and clinical trials of our drug candidates and gene therapy candidates, including but not limited to AT-GAA, CLN6 and CLN3;
the cost of manufacturing drug supply for our clinical and preclinical studies, including the cost of manufacturing Pompe Enzyme Replacement Therapy ("ERT" or "ATB200" or "cipaglucosidase alfa") and gene therapies;

the scope, progress, results, and costs of preclinical development, laboratory testing, and clinical trials for our product candidates including those testing the use of a pharmacological chaperone co-administered with ERT for the treatment of Pompe disease ("AT-GAA") and gene therapies for the treatment of rare genetic metabolic diseases;
the future results of on-going preclinical research and subsequent clinical trials for cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 ("CDKL5") deficiency disorder, Pompe gene therapy, Fabry gene therapy, Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB ("MPS IIIB") and next generation Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIA ("MPS IIIA"), including our ability to obtain regulatory approvals and commercialize these gene therapies and obtain market acceptance for such therapies;

the costs, timing, and outcome of regulatory review of our product candidates;
any changes in regulatory standards relating to the review of our product candidates;
the number and development requirements of other product candidates that we pursue;
the costs of commercialization activities, including product marketing, sales, and distribution;
the emergence of competing technologies and other adverse market developments;
our ability to successfully commercialize Galafold® (also referred to as "migalastat HCl");
our ability to manufacture or supply sufficient clinical or commercial products, including Galafold®, AT-GAA and our gene therapy candidates;
our ability to obtain reimbursement for Galafold®;
our ability to satisfy post-marketing commitments or requirements for continued regulatory approval of Galafold®;
our ability to obtain market acceptance of Galafold®;
the costs of preparing, filing, and prosecuting patent applications and maintaining, enforcing, and defending intellectual property-related claims;
the extent to which we acquire or invest in businesses, products, and technologies;
our ability to successfully integrate our acquired products and technologies into our business, including the possibility that the expected benefits of the transactions will not be fully realized by us or may take longer to realize than expected;
our ability to establish collaborations, partnerships or other similar arrangements and to obtain milestone, royalty, or other payments from any such collaborators;
our ability to adjust to changes in the European and United Kingdom markets in the wake of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union;
1


the extent to which our business could be adversely impacted by the effects of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") outbreak, including due to actions by us, governments, our customers or suppliers or other third parties to control the spread of COVID-19, or by other health epidemics or pandemics;
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; and
changes in accounting standards. 
In light of these risks and uncertainties, we may not actually achieve the plans, intentions, or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions, and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in Part I Item 1A — Risk Factors of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and Part II Item 1A – Risk Factors on this Form 10-Q, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Those factors and the other risk factors described therein are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results or developments to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could harm our results. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, collaborations, or investments we may make. Consequently, there can be no assurance that actual results or developments anticipated by us will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, us. Given these uncertainties, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation, and specifically decline any obligation, to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, even if experience or future developments make it clear that projected results expressed or implied in such statements will not be realized, except as may be required by law.

Amicus Therapeutics, Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Description of Business
Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") is a global, patient-dedicated biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing, and delivering novel medicines for rare diseases. The Company has a portfolio of product opportunities led by the first, oral monotherapy for Fabry disease that has achieved widespread global approval, a differentiated biologic for Pompe disease in the clinic, and an industry leading rare disease gene therapy portfolio.
The cornerstone of the Company's portfolio is Galafold® (also referred to as "migalastat"), the first and only approved oral precision medicine for people living with Fabry disease who have amenable genetic variants. Migalastat is currently approved under the trade name Galafold® in the United States ("U.S."), European Union ("E.U."), United Kingdom ("U.K."), and Japan, with multiple additional approvals granted and applications pending in several other geographies around the world.
The lead biologics program of the Company's pipeline is Amicus Therapeutics GAA ("AT-GAA", also known as ATB200/AT2221, or cipaglucosidase alfa/miglustat), a novel, clinical-stage, potential best-in-class treatment paradigm for Pompe disease. In February 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") granted Breakthrough Therapy designation ("BTD") to AT-GAA for the treatment of late onset Pompe disease. In the first quarter of 2020, the British Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency issued a Promising Innovative Medicine designation for AT-GAA for the treatment of late-onset Pompe disease.

The Company has established an industry leading gene therapy portfolio of potential therapies for people living with rare metabolic diseases, through a license with Nationwide Children's Hospital ("Nationwide Children's") and an expanded collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania ("Penn"). The Company's pipeline includes gene therapy programs in rare, neurologic lysosomal disorders ("LDs"), specifically: CLN6, CLN3, and CLN1 Batten disease, Pompe disease, Fabry disease, CDKL5 deficiency disorder ("CDD"), Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB ("MPS IIIB"), as well as a next generation program in Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIA ("MPS IIIA"). This expanded collaboration with Penn also provides the Company with exclusive disease-specific access and option rights to develop potentially disruptive new gene therapy platform technologies and programs for most LDs and a broader portfolio of more prevalent rare diseases, including Rett Syndrome, Angelman Syndrome, Myotonic Dystrophy, and select other muscular dystrophies. In the first quarter of 2020, the FDA granted Fast Track designation to the CLN3 Batten disease gene therapy, AT-GTX-502, for the treatment of pediatric patients less than 18 years of age.

The Company's operations have not yet been significantly impacted from the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. The Company has maintained operations in all geographies, secured its global supply chain for its commercial and clinical products, and maintained its clinical trials, with minimal disruption. The Company believes its ability to continue to operate without any significant disruptions will depend on the continued health of its employees, the ongoing demand for Galafold® and the continued operation of its global supply chain. The Company has continued to provide uninterrupted access to medicines for those in need of treatment, while prioritizing the health and safety of its global workforce. However, the Company's results of operations in future periods may be negatively impacted by unknown future impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Company had an accumulated deficit of $1.9 billion as of June 30, 2020 and anticipates incurring losses through the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020 and beyond. The Company has historically funded its operations through stock offerings, debt issuances, Galafold® revenues, collaborations, and other financing arrangements.
In July 2020, the Company entered into a definitive agreement for a $400 million credit facility with Hayfin Capital Management (“2020 Senior Secured Term Loan”) with an interest rate equal to 3-month LIBOR, subject to a 1% floor, plus 6.5% per annum and requires interest-only payments until mid-2024 and matures in six years in 2026. This transaction resulted in net proceeds of $386.1 million, after deducting fees and estimated expenses. There were no warrants or equity conversion features associated with the 2020 Senior Secured Term Loan. Additionally, the Company used $156.3 million of the proceeds to voluntary settle the principal amount, accrued interest, and early settlement premiums of the Senior Secured Term Loan with BioPharma Credit PLC that was due in 2023. The remaining proceeds will be used for other general corporate and product development purposes.
Based on current operating models, the Company believes that the current cash position, along with the net proceeds from the 2020 Senior Secured Term Loan and expected revenues, is sufficient to fund the Company's operations and ongoing research programs through to profitability. Potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, future business development collaborations, pipeline expansion, and investment in manufacturing capabilities could impact the Company's future capital requirements.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's interim financial information.
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and related notes as contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. For a complete description of the Company's accounting policies, please refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Foreign Currency Transactions
The functional currency for most of the Company's foreign subsidiaries is their local currency. For non-U.S. subsidiaries that transact in a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, assets and liabilities are translated at current rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average foreign exchange rates for the period. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements of the Company's foreign operations into U.S. dollars are excluded from the determination of net income and are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders' equity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Additionally, the Company assessed the impact COVID-19 pandemic has had on its operations and financial results as of June 30, 2020 and through the issuance of this report. The Company’s analysis was informed by the facts and circumstances as they were known to the Company. This assessment considered the impact COVID-19 may have on financial estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities, and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Marketable securities consist of fixed income investments with a maturity of greater than three months and other highly liquid investments that can be readily purchased or sold using established markets. These investments are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrealized holding gains and losses are reported within comprehensive income (loss) in the Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Fair value is based on available market information including quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or other observable inputs.
Restricted cash consists primarily of funds held to satisfy the requirements of certain agreements that are restricted in their use and is included in non-current assets on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.
10


Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank accounts, which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company invests its marketable securities in high-quality commercial financial instruments. The Company has not recognized any losses from credit risks on such accounts during any of the periods presented. The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on its cash, cash equivalents, or marketable securities.
The Company is subject to credit risk from its accounts receivable related to its product sales of Galafold®. The Company's accounts receivable at June 30, 2020 have arisen from product sales primarily in Europe and the U.S. The Company will periodically assess the financial strength of its customers and the geographic economic environments and conditions to establish allowances for anticipated losses, if any. For accounts receivable that have arisen from named patient sales, the payment terms are predetermined, and the Company evaluates the creditworthiness of each customer on a regular basis. As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.1 million.

Revenue Recognition
The Company's net product sales consist of sales of Galafold® for the treatment of Fabry disease. The Company has recorded revenue on sales where Galafold® is available either on a commercial basis or through a reimbursed early access program ("EAP"). Orders for Galafold® are generally received from distributors and pharmacies with the ultimate payor often a government authority.
The Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligations to its customers have been satisfied, which occurs at a point in time when the pharmacies or distributors obtain control of Galafold®. The transaction price is determined based on fixed consideration in the Company's customer contracts and is recorded net of estimates for variable consideration, which are third party discounts and rebates. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenues from the sale of Galafold® are recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.
The following table summarizes the Company's net product sales from Galafold® disaggregated by geographic area:
Three Months Ended June 30,Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)2020201920202019
U.S.$20,807  $12,181  $38,579  $21,249  
Ex-U.S.41,546  31,949  84,299  56,927  
Total net product sales$62,353  $44,130  $122,878  $78,176  
Inventories and Cost of Goods Sold
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, determined by the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are reviewed periodically to identify slow-moving or obsolete inventory based on projected sales activity as well as product shelf-life. In evaluating the recoverability of inventories produced, the probability that revenue will be obtained from the future sale of the related inventory is considered and inventory value is written down for inventory quantities in excess of expected requirements. Expired inventory is disposed of and the related costs are recognized as cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Cost of goods sold includes the cost of inventory sold, manufacturing and supply chain costs, product shipping and handling costs, provisions for excess and obsolete inventory, as well as royalties payable.
Leases
The Company primarily enters into lease agreements for office space, equipment, and vehicles. The leases have varying terms, some of which could include options to renew, extend, and early terminate. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. Operating leases are included in right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
11


ROU assets represent the Company's right to control the use of an explicitly or implicitly identified fixed asset for a period of time and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Control of an underlying asset is conveyed to the Company if the Company obtains the rights to direct the use of and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from using the underlying asset. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are comprised of fixed payments. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU asset and lease liability and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Variable lease payments are presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the same line item as expenses arising from fixed lease payments for operating leases. The Company has lease agreements that include lease and non-lease components, which the Company accounts for as a single lease component for all underlying asset categories.
The lease term for all of the Company's leases include the non-cancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor.
Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company applies this policy to all underlying asset categories.
Recent Accounting Developments - Guidance Adopted in 2020
ASU 2018-15 - In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): ("ASU 2018-15"), relating to a customer’s accounting for implementation, set-up, and other upfront costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is hosted by a vendor. Under the new guidance, a customer will apply the same criteria for capitalizing implementation costs as it would for an arrangement that has a software license. The new guidance does not affect the accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract. The new guidance also prescribes the balance sheet, income statement and cash flow classification of the capitalized software costs and related amortization expense and requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 for public companies. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.
ASU 2018-13 - In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"). The amendments modify the disclosure requirements in Topic 820. ASU 2018-13 is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments on (i) changes in unrealized gains and losses, (ii) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and (iii) the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.
ASU 2017-04 - In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the recognition and measurement of a goodwill impairment loss by eliminating Step 2 of the quantitative goodwill impairment test. The guidance requires a one-step impairment test in which an entity compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, if any. ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.
ASU 2016-13 - In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected and amends guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for public companies who are SEC filers for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those years. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

Recent Accounting Developments - Guidance Not Yet Adopted
ASU 2019-12 - In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-15, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). This new guidance removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. It eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: (i) exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation; (ii) exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and (iii) exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. ASU 2019-12 also improves financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance and simplifies the following: (i) franchise taxes that are partially based on income; (ii) transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; (iii) separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax; and (iv) enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. ASU 2019 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for public business entities for periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

Note 3. Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities, and Restricted Cash
As of June 30, 2020, the Company held $164.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and $145.0 million of marketable securities which are reported at fair value on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrealized holding gains and losses are generally reported within accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Statements of Comprehensive Loss. If a decline in the fair value of a marketable security below the Company's cost basis is determined to be other-than-temporary or if an available-for-sale debt security’s fair value is determined to less than the amortized cost and the Company intends or is more than likely to sell the security before recovery and it is not considered a credit loss, such security is written down to its estimated fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down is included in earnings as an impairment charge. If the unrealized loss of an available-for-sale debt security is determined to be a result of credit loss the Company would recognize an allowance and the corresponding credit loss would be included in earnings.

The Company regularly invests excess operating cash in deposits with major financial institutions, money market funds, notes issued by the U.S. government, as well as fixed income investments and U.S. bond funds, both of which can be readily purchased and sold using established markets. The Company believes that the market risk arising from its holdings of these financial instruments is mitigated as many of these securities are either government backed or of the highest credit rating. Investments that have original maturities greater than three months but less than one year are classified as current.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are classified as current unless mentioned otherwise below and consisted of the following:

______________________________
(1) As of December 31, 2019, $9.5 million of marketable securities have maturity dates greater than 12 months and are available to convert into cash, if needed. 
For the six months ended June 30, 2020 there were nominal realized gains. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, there were no realized gains or losses. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.
Unrealized loss positions in the marketable securities as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 reflect temporary impairments and are not a result of credit loss. Additionally, as these positions have been in a loss position for less than twelve months and the Company does not intend to sell these securities before recovery, the losses are recognized in other comprehensive gain (loss). The fair value of these marketable securities in unrealized loss positions was $17.7 million and $42.6 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

(1) Included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within Convertible Notes and Senior Secured Term Loan and amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the Convertible Notes and Senior Secured Term Loan using the effective interest rate method.
(2) The Convertible Notes are currently convertible as the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock was equal to or more than 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days of the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last day of the quarter.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company entered into separate, privately negotiated Exchange Agreements with a limited number of holders ("the Holders") of the unsecured Convertible Senior Notes due in 2023 ("the Convertible Notes"). Under the terms of the Exchange Agreements, the Holders agreed to exchange an aggregate principal amount of $247.2 million of Convertible Notes held by them in exchange for an aggregate of approximately 44.0 million shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share. In addition, pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the Company made aggregate cash payments of $1.3 million to the Holders to satisfy accrued and unpaid interest to the closing date of the transactions, along with cash in lieu of fractional shares. These transactions resulted in $215.0 million in additional paid-in-capital and common stock of $0.4 million on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2019. Additionally, the Company recognized a net loss on the exchange of debt of $36.1 million and $4.5 million on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company terminated the Capped Call Confirmations related to the exchange of the Convertible Notes for proceeds of $19.9 million.

This transaction resulted in net proceeds of $386.1 million, after deducting fees and estimated expenses. There were no warrants or equity conversion features associated with the 2020 Senior Secured Term Loan. Additionally, the Company used $156.3 million of the proceeds to voluntary settle the principal amount, accrued interest, and early settlement premiums of the Senior Secured Term Loan with BioPharma Credit PLC that was due in 2023. The remaining proceeds will be used for other general corporate and product development purposes.

Note 6. Share-Based Compensation
The Company's Equity Incentive Plans consist of the Amended and Restated 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") and the 2007 Director Option Plan (the "2007 Director Plan"). The Plan provides for the granting of restricted stock units and options to purchase common stock in the Company to employees, directors, advisors, and consultants at a price to be determined by the Company's Board of Directors. The Plan is intended to encourage ownership of stock by employees and consultants of the Company and to provide additional incentives for them to promote the success of the Company's business. The 2007 Director Plan is intended to promote the recruiting and retention of highly qualified eligible directors and strengthen the commonality of interest between directors and stockholders by encouraging ownership of common stock of the Company. The Board of Directors, or its committee, is responsible for determining the individuals to be granted options, the number of options each individual will receive, the option price per share, and the exercise period of each option.
Stock Option Grants
The fair value of the stock options granted is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Restricted Stock Units and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (collectively "RSUs")
RSUs awarded under the Plan are generally subject to graded vesting and are contingent on an employee's continued service. RSUs are generally subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to the release of vesting restrictions. The Company expenses the cost of the RSUs, which is determined to be the fair market value of the shares of common stock underlying the RSUs at the date of grant, ratably over the period during which the vesting restrictions lapse. A summary of non-vested RSU activity under the Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:

Note 7. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
The Company's financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value and classified within the fair value hierarchy, which is defined as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.

The Company's Convertible Notes fall into the Level 2 category within the fair value level hierarchy. The fair value was determined using broker quotes in a non-active market for valuation. The fair value of the Convertible Notes at June 30, 2020 was $7.3 million.
The Company's Senior Secured Term Loan fall into the Level 2 category within the fair value level hierarchy and the fair value was determined using quoted prices for similar liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. The carrying value of the Senior Secured Term Loan approximates the fair value.
The Company did not have any Level 3 assets as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
18


 Cash, Money Market Funds, and Marketable Securities
The Company classifies its cash within the fair value hierarchy as Level 1 as these assets are valued using quoted prices in an active market for identical assets at the measurement date. The Company considers its investments in marketable securities as available-for-sale and classifies these assets and the money market funds within the fair value hierarchy as Level 2 primarily utilizing broker quotes in a non-active market for valuation of these securities.
Contingent Consideration Payable
The contingent consideration payable resulted from the acquisition of Callidus Biopharma, Inc. ("Callidus") in November 2013. The most recent valuation was determined using a probability weighted discounted cash flow valuation approach. Gains and losses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The current portion of the contingent consideration payable is included within the accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The contingent consideration payable for Callidus has been classified as a Level 3 recurring liability as its valuation requires substantial judgment and estimation of factors that are not currently observable in the market. If different assumptions were used for the various inputs to the valuation approach, the estimated fair value could be significantly higher or lower than the fair value the Company determined.
The following significant unobservable inputs were used in the valuation of the contingent consideration payable of Callidus for the ATB-200 Pompe program:

Contingent consideration liabilities are remeasured to fair value each reporting period using discount rates, probabilities of payment, and projected payment dates. Projected contingent payment amounts related to clinical and regulatory based milestones are discounted back to the current period using a discounted cash flow model. Increases in discount rates and the time to payment may result in lower fair value measurements. Increases or decreases in any of those inputs together, or in isolation, may result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. There is no assurance that any of the conditions for the milestone payments will be met.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
We are a global, patient-dedicated biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing, and delivering novel medicines for rare diseases. We have a portfolio of product opportunities led the first, oral monotherapy for Fabry disease that has achieved widespread global approval, a differentiated biologic for Pompe disease in the clinic, and an industry leading rare disease gene therapy portfolio.
The cornerstone of our portfolio is Galafold® (also referred to as "migalastat"), the first and only approved oral precision medicine for people living with Fabry disease who have amenable genetic variants. Migalastat is currently approved under the trade name Galafold® in the United States ("U.S."), European Union ("E.U."), United Kingdom ("U.K."), and Japan, with multiple additional approvals granted and applications pending in several geographies around the world.
The lead biologics program of our pipeline is Amicus Therapeutics GAA ("AT-GAA", also known as ATB200/AT2221, or cipaglucosidase alfa/miglustat), a novel, clinical-stage, potential best-in-class treatment paradigm for Pompe disease. In February 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") granted Breakthrough Therapy designation ("BTD") to AT-GAA for the treatment of late onset Pompe disease.

        We have established an industry leading gene therapy portfolio of potential therapies for people living with rare metabolic diseases, through a license with Nationwide Children's Hospital ("Nationwide Children’s") and an expanded collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania ("Penn"). Our pipeline includes gene therapy programs in rare, neurologic lysosomal disorders ("LDs"), specifically: CLN6, CLN3, and CLN1 Batten disease, Pompe disease, Fabry disease, CDKL5 deficiency disorder ("CDD"), Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB ("MPS IIIB"), as well as a next generation program in Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIA ("MPS IIIA"). Our expanded collaboration with Penn also provides us with exclusive disease-specific access and the option rights to develop potentially disruptive new gene therapy platform technologies and programs for most LDs and a broader portfolio of more prevalent rare diseases, including Rett Syndrome, Angelman Syndrome, Myotonic Dystrophy, and select other muscular dystrophies. In the first quarter of 2020, the FDA granted Fast Track designation to the CLN3 Batten disease gene therapy, AT-GTX-502, for the treatment of pediatric patients less than 18 years of age.
In July 2020, we entered into a definitive agreement for a $400 million credit facility with Hayfin Capital Management (“2020 Senior Secured Term Loan”) with an interest rate equal to 3-month LIBOR, subject to a 1% floor, plus 6.5% per annum and requires interest-only payments until mid-2024 and matures in six years in 2026. This transaction resulted in net proceeds of $386.1 million, after deducting fees and estimated expenses. There were no warrants or equity conversion features associated with the 2020 Senior Secured Term Loan. Additionally, we used $156.3 million of the proceeds to voluntary settle the principal amount, accrued interest, and early settlement premiums of the Senior Secured Term Loan with BioPharma Credit PLC that was due in 2023. The remaining proceeds will be used for other general corporate and product development purposes.
Our Strategy
Our strategy is to create, manufacture, test, and deliver the highest quality medicines for people living with rare metabolic diseases through internally developed, acquired, or in-licensed products and product candidates that have the potential to obsolete current treatments, provide significant benefits to patients, and be first- or best-in-class. In addition to our programs in Fabry and Pompe, we are leveraging our global capabilities to develop and expand our robust pipeline in genomic medicine. We have made significant progress toward fulfilling our vision of building a leading global biotechnology company focused on rare metabolic diseases.
Our operations have not yet been significantly impacted from the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. We have maintained operations in all geographies, secured our global supply chain for our commercial and clinical products, and maintained our clinical trials, with minimum disruptions. Our ability to continue to operate without any significant disruptions will depend on the continued health of our employees, the ongoing demand for Galafold® and the continued operation of our global supply chain. We have continued to provide uninterrupted access to medicines for those in need of treatment, while prioritizing the health and safety of our global workforce. However, our results of operations in future periods may be negatively impacted by unknown future impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.

21


Highlights of our progress include:
Commercial and regulatory success in Fabry disease. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Galafold® revenue totaled $122.9 million, an increase of $44.7 million compared to the same period in the prior year, with minimal impact from changes in ordering patterns related to the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to see strong commercial momentum and expansion into additional geographies. In countries we have been operating the longest, such as Germany and the U.K., we see an increasing proportion of previously untreated patients come onto Galafold®. In the U.S., we continue to see a significant increase in patients from a growing and very wide prescriber base. Across all markets, we see a high rate of compliance and adherence to this oral treatment option.
Pompe clinical program milestones. In 2019, we completed enrollment in our global Phase 3 pivotal study of AT-GAA (ATB200-03, also known as "PROPEL") with 123 participants at 59 global sites. The U.S. FDA granted BTD for AT-GAA for the treatment of late-onset Pompe disease. Additionally, the British Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency issued a Promising Innovative Medicine designation ("PIM") for AT-GAA for the treatment of late-onset Pompe disease. Currently, we have not experienced any significant changes to the study as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Pipeline advancement and growth. We have established an industry leading gene therapy portfolio of medicines for people living with rare metabolic diseases through a license with Nationwide Children’s and an expanded collaboration with Penn. During the first quarter of 2020, we initiated the long-term follow-up of the initial participants in the CLN6 Phase 1/2 study. In 2019, we reported positive interim clinical results for the first eight patients in our ongoing CLN6 clinical study. Additionally, in 2019 the research collaboration with Penn was expanded to pursue research and development of novel gene therapies for Pompe disease, Fabry disease, CDD, MPS IIIB, as well as a next generation program in MPS IIIA.

Manufacturing. We continue to manufacture our Pompe biologic at commercial scale (1,000L) for our pivotal PROPEL study and early commercial inventory. Our supply agreement with WuXi Biologics and current capacity are expected to produce sufficient quantities to support commercial needs after receipt of applicable regulatory approvals if obtained. For gene therapy, we are working closely with our strategic partners at Catalent Biologics and Thermo Fisher Scientific to support our clinical manufacturing capabilities for our active preclinical lysosomal disorder programs in development at Penn and the Amicus intrathecal AAV Batten disease gene therapy programs. Through the second quarter of 2020, our global supply chains have not been interrupted and we have thus far maintained our ability to manufacture Galafold® as well as our Pompe biologic, AT-GAA, during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Financial strength. Total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of June 30, 2020 was $309.6 million. Based on current operating models, we believe that the current cash position, along with the net proceeds from the 2020 Senior Secured Term Loan and expected revenues is sufficient to fund our operations and ongoing research programs through to profitability. Potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, future business development collaborations, pipeline expansion, and investment in manufacturing capabilities could impact our future capital requirements.

 Our Commercial Product and Product Candidates
Galafold® (Migalastat HCl) for Fabry Disease
Our oral precision medicine Galafold® was granted accelerated approval by the FDA in August 2018 under the brand name Galafold® for the treatment of adults with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease and an amenable galactosidase alpha gene ("GLA") variant based on in vitro assay data. The FDA approved Galafold® for 348 amenable GLA variants. Galafold® was approved in the E.U. and U.K. in May 2016 as a first-line therapy for long-term treatment of adults and adolescents, aged 16 years and older, with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease and who have an amenable mutation (variant). The approved E.U. and U.K. labels include 1,384 mutations amenable to Galafold® treatment, which represent up to half of all patients with Fabry disease. In countries where mutations are provided only on the amenability website, these 1,384 amenable mutations are now available. Marketing authorization approvals have been granted in over 40 countries around the world, including the U.S., E.U., U.K., Japan, and others. We plan to continue to launch Galafold® in additional countries during 2020.

As an orally administered monotherapy, Galafold® is designed to bind to and stabilize an endogenous alpha-galactosidase A ("alpha-Gal A") enzyme in those patients with genetic variants identified as amenable in a GLP cell-based amenability assay. Galafold® is an oral precision medicine intended to treat Fabry disease in patients who have amenable genetic variants, and at this time, it is not intended for concomitant use with ERT.
22


Gene Therapy for Fabry Disease
We are committed to continued innovation for all people living with Fabry disease. For people living with Fabry disease who have non-amenable variants, which are not suitable for Galafold® as a monotherapy, our strategy is to develop a Fabry gene therapy. In October 2018, we expanded our gene therapy portfolio through a collaboration agreement with Penn to pursue research and development of novel gene therapies, including Fabry disease, and other indications. In October 2019, we disclosed preliminary data from a Fabry AAV gene therapy using an Amicus-engineered transgene that demonstrated high levels of GLA activity and robust GL-3 reduction in a mouse model of Fabry disease.
Novel ERT for Pompe Disease
We are leveraging our biologics capabilities to develop AT-GAA, a novel treatment paradigm for Pompe disease. AT-GAA consists of a uniquely engineered rhGAA enzyme, ATB200, or cipaglucosidase alfa, with an optimized carbohydrate structure to enhance lysosomal uptake, administered in combination with AT2221, that functions as an enzyme stabilizer. We initiated a global Phase 3 clinical study of AT-GAA, ATB200-03, or PROPEL in adult patients with late onset Pompe disease in December 2018.

The pharmacological chaperone, AT2221, or miglustat, is not an active ingredient that contributes directly to GAA substrate reduction but instead acts to stabilize ATB200. The small molecule pharmacological chaperone AT2221 binds and stabilizes ATB200 in circulation to improve the uptake of active enzyme in key disease-relevant tissues, resulting in increased clearance of accumulated substrate, glycogen.

Our strategy is to enhance the body of clinical data for AT-GAA in ongoing clinical studies. Based on regulatory feedback from both the U.S. FDA and the European Medicines Agency ("EMA"), the Phase 3 PROPEL study is expected to support approval for a broad indication, including ERT-switch and treatment-naïve patients, if the results are favorable.
In October 2019, we reported additional interim data from our clinical study ATB200-02 at the 24th International Annual Congress of the World Muscle Society. Highlights included muscle function, safety, and tolerability data in patients as well as pharmacodynamic data (muscle damage biomarker, creatine kinase, disease substrate biomarker, and urine hexose tetrasaccharide). Muscle function improved in 16 out of 18 patients at 24 months. Mean six-minute walk test ("6MWT") distance improved in both ERT-naïve and ERT-switch patients with continued benefit observed out to month 24. All five ERT-naive patients showed increases from baseline in 6MWT distance at all time points out to month 24. To date, adverse events have been generally mild and transient. AT-GAA has resulted in a low rate of infusion-associated reactions ("IARs") following over 1,500+ infusions (28 events of IARs in eight patients). The clinical pharmacokinetic profile has been consistent with previously reported preclinical data. Treatment with AT-GAA resulted in persistent and durable reductions in creatine kinase and urine hexose tetrasaccharide across all patient cohorts up to month 24.
Gene Therapy for Pompe Disease
As part of our long-term commitment to provide multiple solutions to address the significant unmet needs of the Pompe community, we are also advancing a next-generation gene therapy treatment for Pompe disease. In October 2018, we expanded our gene therapy portfolio through a collaboration agreement with Penn to pursue research and development of novel gene therapies for Pompe disease and other indications.
In April 2019, we presented initial preclinical data from our investigational adeno-associated viral ("AAV") gene therapy program for Pompe disease. This initial preclinical study in Pompe knockout mice administered a single high dose of AAV gene therapy with either unmodified wild-type hGAA ("unmodified hGAA") or an Amicus/Penn engineered hGAA transgene with a Lysosomal-Targeting Cell receptor binding motif ("engineered hGAA"). The engineered hGAA AAV gene therapy demonstrated more robust and consistent glycogen reduction compared to unmodified hGAA AAV gene therapy, in all key tissues assessed in a Pompe mouse model. In the central nervous system, the engineered hGAA AAV gene therapy also showed robust glycogen reduction in neuronal cells, suggesting this may be an effective way to address neuronal aspects of Pompe disease. Unmodified hGAA AAV gene therapy showed minimal glycogen reduction in neuronal cells. This preclinical study provided initial validation for combining Amicus-engineered transgenes with Penn's AAV gene therapy technologies.

23


In May 2020, we presented preclinical data with the engineered hGAA AAV in single and combined central nervous system ("CNS") and systemic directed gene therapy in a mouse model of Pompe disease with advanced disease at treatment. The engineered hGAA AAV showed better targeting and clearance of glycogen storage at low doses in Pompe mice compared to unmodified hGAA AAV. High dose IV therapy showed strength rescue and the addition of high dose Intracerabroventricular ("ICV") therapy to high dose IV provided incremental benefit.

Gene Therapy for Various Types of Batten Disease
Through our license with Nationwide Children’s, we are researching potential first-in-class gene therapies for multiple forms of Batten disease. Batten disease is the common name for a broad class of rare, fatal, inherited disorders of the nervous system also known as neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses ("NCLs"). In these diseases, a defect in a specific gene triggers a cascade of problems that interferes with a cell's ability to recycle certain molecules. Each gene is called ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal ("CLN") and given a different number designation as its subtype. There are 13 known forms of Batten disease often referred to as CLN1-8; 10-14. The various types of Batten disease have similar features and symptoms but vary in severity and age of onset.

We have two clinical programs in CLN6 and CLN3 Batten disease, and several preclinical programs including CLN1 and other types of Batten disease.
Our Phase 1/2 study in CLN6 Batten disease completed target enrollment, with thirteen patients receiving a single administration of adeno-associated virus serotype 9 AAV-CLN6 gene therapy. In August 2019, we reported positive interim clinical data from the first eight patients in the study. The AAV-CLN6 gene therapy demonstrated a positive impact on motor and language function. Seven out of eight patients maintained stable Hamburg Motor and Language scores or had an initial change (+1 to -1 points) followed by stabilization. In October 2019, we reported additional interim clinical data further supporting the impact of one-time intrathecal AAV gene therapy in children with CLN6 Batten disease. This interim data suggested stabilization of various components of the Hamburg Motor, Language, Seizure, and Vision scores in most patients from baseline to month 12 or 24, in particular those patients treated at a younger age, compared to the progression expected in matched untreated patients.
In the fourth quarter of 2018, we announced the initiation of a Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single intrathecal administration of adeno-associated virus serotype 9 AAV-CLN3 gene therapy in children with CLN3 Batten disease. In the Phase 1/2 study, a total of three patients were dosed in the low dose group, and based on the safety profile to date, the data safety monitoring board cleared us to begin enrollment in the high dose cohort of up to three additional patients. One high dose patient has been dosed, with no serious adverse events to date following a single administration of AAV-CLN3 gene therapy.
CDKL5 Deficiency Disorder
We are researching a potential first-in-class protein replacement therapy approach for CDD, as well as researching a gene therapy for CDD through our collaboration with Penn. CDKL5 is a gene on the X-chromosome encoding the CDKL5 protein that regulates the expression of several essential proteins for normal brain development. Genetic mutations in the CDKL5 gene result in CDKL5 protein deficiency and CDD. This disorder manifests clinically as persistent seizures starting in infancy, followed by severe impairment in neurological development. Most children affected by CDD cannot walk or care for themselves and may also suffer from scoliosis, visual impairment, sensory issues, and gastrointestinal complications.
Other Preclinical Gene Therapies
We have a number of additional gene therapies in active preclinical development, including gene therapies for MPS IIIB as well as a next generation program in MPS IIIA. Our strategy is to develop first or best in class AAV gene therapies for these rare devastating pediatric neurological lysosomal storage diseases.
Strategic Alliances and Arrangements
We will continue to evaluate business development opportunities as appropriate that build stockholder value and provide us with access to the financial, technical, clinical, and commercial resources necessary to develop and market technologies or products with a focus on rare metabolic diseases. We are exploring potential collaborations, alliances, and other business development opportunities on a regular basis. These opportunities may include the acquisition of preclinical-stage, clinical-stage, or marketed products so long as such transactions are consistent with our strategic plan to develop and provide therapies to patients living with rare and orphan diseases.

 Net Product Sales. Net product sales increased $18.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to continued growth in the Europe, US, and Japan markets.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold includes manufacturing costs as well as royalties associated with sales of our product. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net product sales was 10.7% during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 12.2% during the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the proportion of sales in countries subject to a higher royalty burden.
Research and Development Expense.  The following table summarizes our principal product development programs for each product candidate in development, and the out-of-pocket, third party expenses incurred with respect to each product candidate:

25


The $1.4 million decrease in research and development costs was primarily due to the timing of expenses associated with clinical research and manufacturing costs with the advancement and enrollment of clinical studies in the Pompe program. There was also a decrease in expense associated with ongoing regulatory requirements, which includes approval in new geographies, and pediatric and other studies to support label expansion of Galafold®, and a decrease of other costs primarily driven by reduced employee travel and professional fees. These decreases were partially offset by increases in gene therapy programs driven by the pipeline growth.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expense.  Selling, general, and administrative expense decreased $7.9 million, mainly driven by reduction in third-party professional fees and travel.
Loss on exchange of convertible notes. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements with a limited number of holders of the Convertible Notes. As a result of this exchange, the Company recognized a loss on exchange of debt of $4.5 million in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and $24.7 million in additional paid-in-capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Other Income (Expense). The $6.2 million variance was primarily driven by foreign exchange gains in the remeasurement of our intercompany transactions.
Income Tax Expense. The income tax expense for the second quarter of 2020 was $3.7 million. We are subject to income taxes in various jurisdictions. Our tax liabilities are largely dependent on the distribution of pre-tax earnings among the many jurisdiction in which we operate.

Total other project costs55,614  58,380  
Total research and development costs$158,731  $135,574  
The $23.2 million increase in research and development costs was primarily due to increases in gene therapy programs, driven by the pipeline growth and clinical research and manufacturing costs with the advancement and enrollment of clinical studies in the Pompe program, and an increase in personnel costs primarily associated with the gene therapy initiatives. These increased costs were partially offset by a decrease in expense associated with the ongoing regulatory requirements, approval in new geographies, and pediatric and other studies to support label expansion of Galafold® and a decrease in other costs, primarily driven by reduced employee travel and professional fees.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expense.  Selling, general, and administrative expense decreased $12.0 million, mainly driven by reduction in third-party professional fees and travel.
Loss on exchange of convertible notes. During the first six months of 2019, the Company entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements with a limited number of holders of the Convertible Notes. As a result of this exchange, the Company recognized a loss on exchange of debt of $40.6 million in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and $215.0 million in additional paid-in-capital and common stock of $0.4 million in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Other (Expense) Income. The $3.2 million variance was primarily driven by foreign exchange losses in the remeasurement of our intercompany transactions.
Income Tax Expense. The income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $4.1 million. We are subject to income taxes in various jurisdictions. Our tax liabilities are largely dependent on the distribution of pre-tax earnings among the many jurisdiction in which we operate.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As a result of our significant research and development expenditures, as well as expenditures to build a commercial organization to support the launch of Galafold®, we have not been profitable and have generated operating losses since we were incorporated in 2002. We have historically funded our operations through stock offerings, debt issuances, Galafold® revenues, collaborations, and other financing arrangements.

Sources of Liquidity
In July 2020, we entered into a definitive agreement for a $400 million credit facility with Hayfin Capital Management (“2020 Senior Secured Term Loan”) with an interest rate equal to 3-month LIBOR, subject to a 1% floor, plus 6.5% per annum and requires interest-only payments until mid-2024 and matures in six years in 2026. This transaction resulted in net proceeds of $386.1 million, after deducting fees and estimated expenses. There were no warrants or equity conversion features associated with the 2020 Senior Secured Term Loan. Additionally, we used $156.3 million of the proceeds to voluntary settle the principal amount, accrued interest, and early settlement premiums of the Senior Secured Term Loan with BioPharma Credit PLC that was due in 2023. The remaining proceeds will be used for other general corporate and product development purposes.
Cash Flow Discussion
As of June 30, 2020, we had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $309.6 million. We invest cash in excess of our immediate requirements in regard to liquidity and capital preservation in a variety of interest-bearing instruments, including obligations of U.S. government agencies and money market accounts. Wherever possible, we seek to minimize the potential effects of concentration and degrees of risk. Although we maintain cash balances with financial institutions in excess of insured limits, we do not anticipate any losses with respect to such cash balances. For more details on the cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, refer to "—Note 3.  Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities, and Restricted Cash," in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
Net cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $141.5 million. The components of net cash used in operations included the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $141.4 million and the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $32.6 million. The change in operating assets was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable by $10.4 million due to increased commercial sales of Galafold® and a decrease in prepaid and other current assets of $1.4 million to support the commercial activities for Galafold®. The net cash used in operations was also impacted by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $23.9 million, mainly related to the payment of contract manufacturing and research costs, program expenses and personnel costs.
Net cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $137.0 million. The components of net cash used in operations included the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $204.9 million and the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $2.1 million. The change in operating assets was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable by $6.8 million due to increased commercial sales of Galafold®, an increase in prepaid and other current assets of $3.5 million to support commercial activities for Galafold® launch and an increase in inventory of $1.9 million. The net cash used in operations was also impacted by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $12.5 million, mainly related to program expenses and support for the commercial launch of Galafold®, partially offset by a decrease in deferred reimbursement of $1.5 million due to payment of a milestone.
Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $163.3 million. Our investing activities have consisted primarily of purchases and sales and maturities of investments and capital expenditures. Net cash provided by investing activities reflects $210.1 million for the sale and redemption of marketable securities, partially offset by $45.0 million for the purchase of marketable securities and $1.9 million for the acquisition of property and equipment. 
Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $65.0 million. Our investing activities have consisted primarily of purchases and sales and maturities of investments and capital expenditures. Net cash provided by investing activities reflects $261.4 million for the sale and redemption of marketable securities, partially offset by $191.3 million for the purchase of marketable securities, and $5.1 million for the acquisition of property and equipment.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $2.6 million. Net cash provided by financing activities primarily reflects $10.7 million from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by $8.1 million from the purchase of vested restricted stock units.
28


Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $213.8 million. Net cash provided by financing activities primarily reflects $189.0 million from the issuance of common stock, net of issuance costs paid, $19.9 million from termination of capped call and $7.6 million from the exercise of stock options and warrants, partially offset by $2.6 million from the purchase of vested restricted stock units.
Funding Requirements
We expect to incur losses from operations for the foreseeable future primarily due to research and development expenses, including expenses related to conducting clinical trials. Our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including:
the progress and results of our preclinical and clinical trials of our drug candidates and gene therapy candidates, including but not limited to AT-GAA, CLN6 and CLN3;
the cost of manufacturing drug supply for our clinical and preclinical studies, including the cost of manufacturing Pompe Enzyme Replacement Therapy ("ERT" or "ATB200"or "cipaglucosidase alfa") and gene therapies;
the scope, progress, results, and costs of preclinical development, laboratory testing, and clinical trials for our product candidates, including those testing the use of a pharmacological chaperone co-administered with ERT for the treatment of Pompe disease ("AT-GAA") and gene therapies for the treatment of rare genetic metabolic diseases;
the future results of on-going preclinical research and subsequent clinical trials for CDD, Pompe gene therapy, Fabry gene therapy, MPS IIIB and next generation MPS IIIA, including our ability to obtain regulatory approvals and commercialize these gene therapies and obtain market acceptance for such therapies;
the costs, timing, and outcome of regulatory review of our product candidates;
any changes in regulatory standards relating to the review of our product candidates;
the number and development requirements of other product candidates that we pursue;
the costs of commercialization activities, including product marketing, sales, and distribution;
the emergence of competing technologies and other adverse market developments;
our ability to successfully commercialize Galafold® ("migalastat HCl");
our ability to manufacture or supply sufficient clinical or commercial products, including Galafold®, AT-GAA and our gene therapy candidates;
our ability to obtain reimbursement for Galafold®;
our ability to satisfy post-marketing commitments or requirements for continued regulatory approval of Galafold®;
our ability to obtain market acceptance of Galafold®;
the costs of preparing, filing, and prosecuting patent applications and maintaining, enforcing, and defending intellectual property-related claims;
the extent to which we acquire or invest in businesses, products, and technologies;
our ability to successfully integrate our acquired products and technologies into our business, including the possibility that the expected benefits of the transactions will not be fully realized by us or may take longer to realize than expected;
our ability to establish collaborations, partnerships, or other similar arrangements and to obtain milestone, royalty, or other payments from any such collaborators;
our ability to adjust to changes in the European and U.K. markets in the wake of the U.K. leaving the E.U.;
the extent to which our business could be adversely impacted by the effects of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") outbreak, including due to actions by us, governments, our customers or suppliers or other third parties to control the spread of COVID-19, or by other health epidemics or pandemics;
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; and
changes in accounting standards.

While we continue to generate revenue from product sales, in the absence of additional funding, we expect our continuing operating losses to result in increases in our cash used in operations over the next several quarters and years. We may seek additional funding through public or private financings of debt or equity. Based on current operating models, we believe that the current cash position, along with the net proceeds from the 2020 Senior Secured Term Loan and expected revenues is sufficient to fund our operations and ongoing research programs through to profitability. Potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, future business development collaborations, pipeline expansion, and investment in manufacturing capabilities could impact our future capital requirements.

Financial Uncertainties Related to Potential Future Payments
Milestone Payments / Royalties
Celenex - In connection with our acquisition of Celenex in 2018, we have agreed to pay up to an additional $10 million in connection with the achievement of certain development milestones, $220 million in connection with the achievement of certain regulatory approval milestones across multiple programs and up to $75 million in tiered sales milestone payments.
Nationwide Children’s - Celenex has an exclusive license agreement with Nationwide Children’s. Under this license agreement, Nationwide Children’s is eligible to receive development and sales-based milestones of up to $7.8 million from us for each product.

Penn - Under our expanded collaboration agreement with Penn, Penn is eligible to receive certain milestone, royalty and discovery research payments with respect to licensed products for each indication. Milestone payments are payable following the achievement of certain development and commercial milestone events in each indication, up to an aggregate of $88.0 million per indication. Royalty payments are based on net sales of licensed products on a licensed product-by-licensed product and country-by-country basis. We will provide $10.0 million each year during the five-year agreement to fund the discovery research program.
GlaxoSmithKline - In November 2013, we entered into the Revised Agreement (the "Revised Agreement") with GlaxoSmithKline ("GSK"), pursuant to which we have obtained global rights to develop and commercialize migalastat as a monotherapy and in combination with ERT for Fabry disease. The Revised Agreement amends and replaces in its entirety the earlier agreement entered into between us and GSK in July 2012 (the "Original Collaboration Agreement"). Under the terms of the Revised Agreement, there was no upfront payment from us to GSK. For migalastat monotherapy, GSK is eligible to receive post-approval and sales-based milestones up to $40 million, as well as tiered royalties in the mid-teens in eight major markets outside the U.S. In addition, because we reacquired worldwide rights to migalastat, we are no longer eligible to receive any milestones or royalties we would have been eligible to receive under the Original Collaboration Agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments 
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There were no significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2020 to the items that we disclosed as our significant accounting policies and estimates described in "—Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the Company's financial statements as contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk of change in fair value of a financial instrument due to changes in interest rates, equity prices, creditworthiness, financing, exchange rates, or other factors. Our primary market risk exposure relates to changes in interest rates in our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. We place our investments in high-quality financial instruments, primarily money market funds, corporate debt securities, asset backed securities, and U.S. government agency notes with maturities of less than one year, which we believe are subject to limited interest rate and credit risk. The securities in our investment portfolio are not leveraged, are classified as available-for-sale and, due to the short-term nature, are subject to minimal interest rate risk. We believe that a 1% (100 basis points) change in average interest rates would either increase or decrease the market value of our investment portfolio by $0.4 million as of June 30, 2020. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure and consistent with our investment policy, we do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio.
We are exposed to interest rate risk with respect to variable rate debt. At June 30, 2020, we had a $150 million Senior Secured Term Loan that bears interest at a rate equal to the 3-month LIBOR plus 7.50% per year. We do not currently hedge our variable interest rate debt. The annual average variable interest rate for our variable rate debt as of June 30, 2020 was 9.4%. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in the average interest rate on our variable rate debt would result in a $0.4 million change in the interest expense as of June 30, 2020.
We face foreign exchange risk as a result of entering into transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. We are not currently engaged in any foreign currency hedging activities. The current exposures arise primarily from cash, accounts receivable, intercompany receivables and payables, and net product sales denominated in foreign currencies. Both positive and negative impacts to our international product sales from movements in foreign currency exchange rates may be partially mitigated by the natural, opposite impact that foreign currency exchange rates have on our international operating expenses. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign exchange rates during any of the periods presented would not have had a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
 For information regarding our exposure to certain market risks, see Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. There have been no material changes in our financial instrument portfolio or market risk exposures since our fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") was carried out under the supervision of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, with the participation of our management. Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act and are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the fiscal quarter covered by this report, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following risk factor should be considered in addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

The novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and efforts to reduce its spread may negatively impact our business and operations.
The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially burdened healthcare systems worldwide which may impact progression of our clinical trials. Required inspections and reviews by regulatory agencies may also be delayed due to the focus of resources on COVID-19 as well as travel and other restrictions. Significant delays in the timing of our clinical trials and in regulatory reviews could adversely affect our ability to commercialize some assets in our product pipeline. Lack of normal access by patients to the healthcare system, along with concern about the continued supply of medications, may result in changes in buying patterns throughout the supply chain, including by patients, which could increase or decrease demand for our products. Similarly, we have temporarily halted in-person interactions by our employees with healthcare providers, which may decrease demand for our products. COVID-19 could also have an adverse impact on our supply chain and distribution systems, which could impact our ability to distribute our products and the ability of third parties on which we rely to fulfill their obligations to us, and could increase our expenses. In addition, the conditions created by the pandemic may intensify other risks inherent in our business, including, among other things, risks related to drug pricing and access, intellectual property protection, product safety and efficacy concerns, product liability and other litigation, and the impact of adverse global and local economic conditions.

As a result, while the financial impact on us has not been material to date, given the rapid and evolving nature of the virus, COVID-19 could negatively affect our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows in future periods, perhaps materially. The degree to which COVID-19 affects us will depend on developments that are highly uncertain and beyond our knowledge or control, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to reduce its transmission, and the speed with which, and extent to which, more stable economic and operating conditions resume. Should the COVID-19 pandemic and any associated recession or depression continue for a prolonged period, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and cash flows could be materially impacted by lower revenues and profitability and a lower likelihood of effectively and efficiently developing and launching new medicines.
