BioCardia, Inc. - Quarter Report: 2012 March (Form 10-Q)

Tiger X Medical, Inc. ("Tiger X" or the "Company"), formerly known as Cardo Medical, Inc., previously operated as an orthopedic medical device company specializing in designing, developing and marketing high performance reconstructive joint devices and spinal surgical devices.

As discussed below in the discontinued operations section, we sold our Reconstructive and Spine Divisions during the quarter ended June 30, 2011. Our continuing operations include the collection and management of our royalty income earned in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex. The Company will also be evaluating future investment opportunities and uses for its cash.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, which has been derived from the Company's audited financial statements as of that date, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information of the Company as of March 31, 2012 and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, such financial information includes all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position at such date and the operating results and cash flows for such periods. Operating results for the interim period ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.

Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed on March 29, 2012.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tiger X Medical, Inc., Accelerated Innovation, Inc. ("Accelerated"), Uni-Knee LLC ("Uni") and Cervical Xpand LLC ("Cervical"). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On October 7, 2010, the Company's management and Board of Directors decided to put substantially all of its assets up for sale. The assets determined to be held for sale were inventories, intellectual properties, and property and equipment of its reconstructive products line (the "Reconstructive Division") and spine products line (the "Spine Division"). The Company decided to put the assets of its Reconstructive and Spine Divisions up for sale primarily because it did not have sufficient working capital, and was not able to procure such financial resources through equity or debt financing, in order to fully execute a profitable sales strategy.

On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex, Inc. ("Arthrex") (the agreement being the "Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell the assets of the Reconstructive Division to Arthrex. The Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement also provides for the Company to receive royalty payments equal to 5% of net sales of the Company's products made by Arthrex on a quarterly basis for a term up to and including the 20th anniversary of the closing date. The Company completed the sale of the Reconstructive Division on June 10, 2011. The total cash consideration received by the Company from Arthrex amounted to $14,586,000, which was comprised of $9,960,000 plus inventory with a value of $2,908,000 and property and equipment with a value of $1,718,000, subject to future adjustments to the value of the inventory and property and equipment and other unasserted claims over a twelve month period. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company received total royalty payments of $11,000 from Arthrex and reflected this payment as revenue on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On April 4, 2011, the Company entered into and closed an Asset Purchase Agreement with Altus Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Altus"), pursuant to which the Company sold substantially all of the assets of the Spine Division in exchange for cash consideration of $3,000,000 (the "Altus Asset Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Altus Asset Purchase Agreement, $2,700,000 of the purchase price was paid at the closing and $300,000 was deposited into escrow with an escrow agent for a period of 90 days from the closing date (assuming there are no disputes) to be used for any adjustments to the closing value of the Company's inventory and property and equipment.

Pursuant to the sale transaction with Arthrex, the total aggregate amount remaining in escrow accounts was $900,000, which is reflected as restricted cash on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. There we no amounts remaining in the escrow accounts relating to the sales transaction with Altus.

Total sales associated with the discontinued Reconstructive and Spine Divisions reported as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, were $0 and $547,000, respectively. The total pretax loss associated with the discontinued Reconstructive and Spine Divisions, including the discontinued corporate support for those activities, reported as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, were $0 and $196,000, respectively. The continuing operations reflected are expenses associated with business insurance, legal and accounting fees that the Company will continue to incur.

Financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, management makes estimates relating to allowances for doubtful accounts, share-based payments and deferred income tax assets. Given the short operating history of Tiger X, actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company's revenue consists of royalty revenue from the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement, which is recognized as the amount becomes known and collectability is reasonably assured.

Basic net loss per share is computed by using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options or warrants. No dilutive potential common shares are included in the computation of any diluted per share amount when a loss from continuing operations is reported by the Company because they are anti- dilutive.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The likelihood of realizing the tax benefits related to a potential deferred tax asset is evaluated, and a valuation allowance is recognized to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the beginning and end of the year; the change in the sum of the deferred tax asset, valuation allowance and deferred tax liability during the year generally is recognized as a deferred tax exp13.1.  ense or benefit. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company evaluates the accounting for uncertainty in income tax recognized in its financial statements and determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any part of the benefit is recorded in its financial statements. For those tax positions where it is "not more likely than not" that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit is recognized. Where applicable, associated interest and penalties are also recorded. The Company has not accrued for any such uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2012 (unaudited) or December 31, 2011.

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation due to the treatment of discontinued operations.

The cash and cash equivalents held in the Company's business money market and escrow bank accounts are with local and national banking institutions and subjected to FDIC current limits of $250,000 per banking institution. As of March 31, 2012, the Company bank balances in these bank accounts exceeded the insured amount by $12,929,293.

There are no recently issued accounting pronouncements that the Company has yet to adopt that are expected to have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

On August 29, 2008, the Company issued options to certain employees and Board members to purchase membership units in the Company. The options give the grantees the right to purchase up to 2,398,400 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.23 per share. The options vest 20% each year over a five-year period and expire after ten years. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted was $0.13 per option. Stock option compensation recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations amounted to $2,000 and $11,000, respectively.

The fair value of each option award was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Because the Black-Scholes option valuation model incorporates ranges of assumptions for inputs, those ranges are disclosed. To estimate volatility of the options over their expected terms, the Company measured the historical volatility of the components of the small cap sector of the Dow Jones medical equipment index for a period equal to the expected life of the Company's options. It also measured the volatility of other public companies with similar size and industry characteristics to the Company for the same period. These measurements were averaged and the result was used as expected volatility. As there was no history of option lives at the Company, the expected term of options granted was the midpoint between the vesting periods and the contractual life of the options. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The forfeiture rate was based on an analysis of the nature of the recipients' jobs and relationships to the Company. As a result of the sale of substantially all of the Company's assets in the second quarter of 2011, other than the CEO, the Company no longer has any employees. As a result, the only options expected to vest are those held by the Company's Board of Directors and CEO. As a result, the estimated forfeiture rate has been adjusted to 75.6%.

A summary of stock option activity as of March 31, 2012, and changes during the period then ended is presented below.
