BioCardia, Inc. - Quarter Report: 2015 September (Form 10-Q)

Tiger X Medical, Inc. ("Tiger X" or the "Company"), formerly known as Cardo Medical, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by the virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, previously operated as an orthopedic medical device company specializing in designing, developing and marketing high performance reconstructive joint devices and spinal surgical devices.

During 2010, the Company discontinued its operations and sold the assets from its previous business lines during 2011. Our continuing operations include the collection and management of our royalty income earned in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex, Inc. ("Arthrex"). We continue to advance and promote our former knee product lines through participation in mobile teaching labs, seminars and live surgery. The Company is constantly evaluating opportunities for a suitable joint venture partner or buyer for the remaining intellectual property owned by the Company. The Company is also evaluating investment opportunities and uses for its cash. 

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014, 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 September 30, 2015 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, 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 September 30, 2015 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, 2014 filed on March 24, 2015.

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 January 24, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with 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. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company received total royalty payments of $121,000 and $96,000, respectively, from Arthrex. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company received total royalty payments of $382,000 and $299,000, respectively, from Arthrex.

These amounts are reflected as royalty income on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.

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 share- based payments and deferred income tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

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

Basic net income per share is computed by using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of diluted shares outstanding at each reporting period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options. No dilutive potential common shares are included in the computation of any diluted per share amount because their impact was anti-dilutive.

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 expense 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 September 30, 2015 (unaudited) or December 31, 2014.

The cash and cash equivalents held in the Company's business money market and other bank accounts are with local and national banking institutions and subjected to FDIC insurance limits of $250,000 per banking institution. As of September 30, 2015, the Company's balances in these bank accounts exceeded the insured amount by $13,483,000.

The options vest 20% each year over a five year period and expire after ten years. As of September 30, 2015, there were no unvested options. There was no stock option expense recognized for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2015 or 2014 in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these condensed consolidated 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 condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate 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.

As used in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation," except where the context otherwise requires, the term "we," "us," "our" or "Tiger X" refers to the business of Tiger X Medical, Inc.

Financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("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 share-based payments, and deferred income tax assets. Given the short operating history of Tiger X, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Royalty Agreement

On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with 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. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company received total royalty payments of $121,000 and $96,000, respectively, from Arthrex. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company received total royalty payments of $382,000 and $299,000, respectively, from Arthrex. These amounts are reflected as royalty income on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.

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

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

The following is a comparison of the condensed consolidated results of operations for Tiger X for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Royalty income amounted to $121,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $96,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Revenues represented royalties received from Arthrex in connection with the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement. The increase during 2015 is the result of Arthrex's increased sales of the acquired product line. Until we find a joint venture partner or buyer for our remaining intellectual property or find an investment opportunity for our existing cash, we expect our primary source of revenue to be royalty payments under the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 decreased by $16,000 as compared to the same period in 2014 due primarily to decreased professional expenses during the quarter ended September 30, 2015. General and administrative expenses primarily represent our continuing operating expenses, including business insurance expense and professional fees such as legal, accounting and audit services.

The following is a comparison of the condensed consolidated results of operations for Tiger X for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Royalty income amounted to $382,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $299,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Revenues represented royalties received from Arthrex in connection with the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement. The increase during 2015 is the result of Arthrex's increased sales of the acquired product line. Until we find a joint venture partner or buyer for our remaining intellectual property or find an investment opportunity for our existing cash, we expect our primary source of revenue to be royalty payments under the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased by $23,000 as compared to the same period in 2014 due primarily to increased professional expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. General and administrative expenses primarily represent our continuing operating expenses, including business insurance expense and professional fees such as legal, accounting and audit services.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $217,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $161,000 for the same period in 2014. The change between the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the same period in 2014 was primarily due to an increase in our net income for the periods of $59,000, as well as an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $14,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to an decrease of $1,000 for the same period in 2014. Our accounts payable and accrued expenses also decreased by $1,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to a reduction of $13,000 for the same period in 2014.

We had no cash flows from investing or financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 or 2014.

We believe our cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2015 are adequate to meet our cash needs for the next twelve months and beyond.

Some of the statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are "forward-looking statements," as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "may," "will," "should," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "plan," "believe," "predict," "potential," "project," "target," "forecast," "intend," "assume," "guide," "seek" and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements are predictive in nature and may depend upon or refer to future events, activities or conditions. Although we believe that these statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, we cannot provide any assurances regarding future results. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward- looking statements, or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause our actual activities or results to differ materially from the activities and results anticipated in forward-looking statements. Information regarding our risk factors appears in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed on March 24, 2015.
