Trovagene, Inc. and Subsidiaries
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Business Overview
Trovagene, Inc. (Trovagene or the Company) is a development stage molecular diagnostic company that focuses on the development and marketing of urine-based nucleic acid tests for patient/disease screening and monitoring. The Companys novel tests predominantly use transrenal DNA (Tr-DNA) and transrenal RNA (Tr-RNA). Trovagenes primary focus is to leverage its urine-based (i.e. transrenal) testing platform to facilitate improvements in the management of cancer care and womens healthcare. Tr-DNAs and Tr-RNAs are fragments of nucleic acids derived from dying cells inside the body. The intact DNA is fragmented in dying cells and released into the blood stream. These fragments have been shown to cross the kidney barrier and can be detected in urine. In addition, there is evidence that some species of RNA or their fragments are stable enough to cross the renal barrier. These RNA can also be isolated from urine, detected and analyzed. The Company believes its technology is applicable to all transrenal nucleic acids (Tr-NA). Trovagenes patented technology uses safe, non-invasive, cost effective and simple urine collection which can be applied to a broad range of testing including: tumor detection and monitoring (e.g., KRAS mutations in pancreatic cancer), prenatal genetic testing, infectious diseases, tissue transplantation, forensic identification and for patient selection in clinical trials. Trovagenes technology is ideally suited to be used in developing molecular diagnostic assays that will allow physicians to provide very simple, non-invasive and convenient screening and monitoring tests for their patients by identifying specific biomarkers involved in the disease process. If the Company is successful, its novel assays may facilitate improved testing compliance resulting in earlier diagnosis of disease, more targeted treatment which will be more cost effective, and improvements in the quality of life for the patient.
Underwritten Public Offering of Common Stock and Reverse Stock Split
On May 30, 2012, the Company completed a underwritten public offering in which an aggregate of 1,150,000 units, with each unit consisting of two shares of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock were sold at a purchase price of $8.00 per unit. On June 13, 2012, the underwriters exercised their overallotment option in full for an additional 172,500 units. The Company raised a total of $9.1 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.7 million and offering expenses of $0.7 million. The units began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market on May 30, 2012 under the symbol TROVU. Upon the exercise in full of the underwriters overallotment, the units may be separated into common stock and warrants. Each warrant has an exercise price of $5.32 per share, and expires five years from the closing of the offering. The warrants trade on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol TROVW. Warrants issued in connection with the underwritten public offering and sale of units in May 2012 are not considered derivatives based on our analysis of the criteria of ASC 815, as the Company is not required to make any cash payments or net cash settlement to the registered holder in lieu of issuance of warrant shares.
On March 15, 2012, the Board of Directors and on April 27, 2012 a majority of the stockholders approved a proposal to amend the Companys Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Companys issued and outstanding common stock at a ratio of not less than one-for-two and not greater than one-for-six at any time prior to April 27, 2013 at the discretion of the Board of Directors. On May 24, 2012, the Board of Directors approved a 1-for-6 reverse stock split of the Companys issued and outstanding common stock effective on May 29, 2012. All the relevant information relating to number of shares and per share information contained in these consolidated financial statements has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented.
Private Placements
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company closed four private placement financings which raised gross proceeds of $1,900,000. The Company issued 633,334 shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase 633,334 shares of common stock. The purchase price paid by the investor was $3.00 for each unit, determined by the price paid by investors in recent private placements. The warrants expire on December 31, 2018 and are exercisable at $3.00 per share. The Company paid $96,500 in cash for a finders fee. Based upon the Companys analysis of the criteria contained in ASC Topic 815-40, Trovagene has determined that the warrants issued in connection with these private placements should be recorded as derivative liabilities since they are all price protected (Note 6). The fair value is disclosed in Note 7.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company issued 30,450 units to a selling agent, who is also a shareholder of the Company, consisting of 30,450 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 30,450 shares of common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $3.00 per share, are immediately exercisable and expire December 31, 2018. The units were issued as a finders fee in connection with certain private placements closed during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The issuance of these units was treated as a non-compensatory cost of capital.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Trovagene, which include its wholly owned subsidiary Xenomics, Inc., a California corporation (Xenomics Sub) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain items in the comparable prior periods financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current periods presentation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and for each of the two years ended December 31, 2011 and from inception (August 4, 1999) to December 31, 2011 included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2012. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2012, results of operations, and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, and for all periods presented herein, have been made. The results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Trovagenes consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2012 have been prepared under the assumption that Trovagene will continue as a going concern. The Companys ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, to generate additional revenue. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company will be required to raise additional capital within the next year to complete the development and commercialization of current product candidates and to continue to fund operations at its current cash expenditure levels.
Cash used in operating activities was $3,619,141 and $1,409,707, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred net losses attributable to common stockholders of $5,267,955 and $1,020,555, respectively.
To date, Trovagenes sources of cash have been primarily limited to the sale of debt and equity securities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $10,946,115 and $1,510,000, respectively. The Company cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. To the extent that the Company can raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, the Companys stockholders may experience significant dilution. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that impact the Companys ability to conduct its business.
If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, it may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of one or more of its product candidates. The Company may also be required to:
· Seek collaborators for product candidates at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable and on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available; and
· Relinquish licenses or otherwise dispose of rights to technologies, product candidates or products that the Company would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize themselves, on unfavorable terms.
The Company has approximately $7,290,000 million of cash in the bank at November 9, 2012. Based on the Companys projections of future ordinary expenses and expected receipts the Company has enough cash to pay expenses through November of 2013.
2. Net Loss Per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per share is presented in conformity with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share, for all periods presented. In accordance with this guidance, basic and diluted net income/loss per common share was determined by dividing net income/loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. In a period where there is a net loss position, diluted weighted-average shares are the same as basic weighted-average shares. Shares used in calculation basic and diluted net loss per common share exclude as antidilutive the following share equivalents:

3. Accounting for Share-Based Payments
ASC Topic 718 CompensationStock Compensation requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for the award of equity instruments based on the estimated fair value of the award at the date of grant. The expense is to be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. Trovagene accounts for shares of common stock, stock options and warrants issued to non-employees based on the fair value of the stock, stock option or warrant, if that value is more reliably measurable than the fair value of the consideration or services received. The Company accounts for stock options issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50 Equity-Based Payment to Non-Employees whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Accordingly the fair value of these options is being marked to market quarterly until the measurement date is determined. The weighted-average fair value per share of all options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 estimated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model was $1.38 and $0.72, respectively.
Stock-based compensation expense related to Trovagene options has been recognized in operating results as follow:

Warrants
The Company issued 2,128,284 warrants, whose weighted average exercise price was $4.61 per share, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012, of which, 663,784 were issued in connection with private placements of its common stock, 92,000 were issued to underwriters in connection with the underwritten public offering, 1,322,500 were issued in connection with the underwritten public offering of its common stock, and 50,000 were issued for services provided by a related party.
4. Stockholders Equity (Deficiency)
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company closed four private placement financings which raised gross proceeds of $1,900,000. The Company issued 633,334 shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase 633,334 shares of common stock. The purchase price paid by the investor was $3.00 for each unit, determined by the price paid by investors in recent private placements. The warrants expire after eight years and are exercisable at $3.00 per share. The Company paid $96,500 in cash for a finders fee. Based upon the Companys analysis of the criteria contained in ASC Topic 815-40, Trovagene has determined that the warrants issued in connection with these private placements should be recorded as derivative liabilities at the time of issuance since they are all price protected (Note 6), however the completion of the underwritten public offering on May 30, 2012 removed the condition which required these warrants to be treated as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the fair value of these warrants were marked to market through May 30, 2012 and then reclassified from a liability to additional paid in capital.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company issued 30,450 units to a selling agent, who is also a shareholder of the Company, consisting of 30,450 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 30,450 shares of common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $3.00 per share, are immediately exercisable and expire December 31, 2018. The units were issued as a finders fee in connection with certain private placements closed during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The issuance of these units was treated as a non-compensatory cost of capital.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company issued 125,000 shares of common stock in connection with an asset purchase agreement with MultiGen Diagnostics, Inc. See Note 5.
On May 30, 2012, the Company completed an underwritten public offering in which an aggregate of 1,150,000 units, with each unit consisting of two shares of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock were sold at a purchase price of $8.00 per unit. On June 13, 2012 the underwriters exercised their overallotment option in full for an additional 172,500 units. Based upon the Companys analysis of the criteria contained in ASC Topic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in an Entitys Own Equity, Trovagene determined that the warrants issued in connection with this transaction were not derivative liabilities. The Company raised a total of $9.1 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.7 million and offering expenses of $0.7 million.
5. Asset Purchase Agreement
On February 1, 2012 the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with MultiGen Diagnostics, Inc. The Company determined that the acquired asset does not meet the definition of a business, as defined in ASC 805, Business Combinations and will be accounted for under ASC 350, Intangibles- Goodwill and Other. In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued 125,000 shares of restricted common stock to MultiGEN. In addition, up to an additional $3.7 million may be paid in a combination of common stock and cash to MultiGEN upon the achievement of specific sales and earnings targets. In addition, in connection with the acquisition, the Company entered into a Reagent Supply Agreement dated as of February 1, 2012 pursuant to which MultiGEN will supply and deliver reagents to be used in connection with a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (CLIA) laboratory. The total purchase consideration was determined to be $187,500 which was paid in the Companys common stock.
Under ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, the Company was required to assess the fair value of the assets acquired and the contingent consideration at the date of acquisition. Therefore, the Company assessed the fair value of the assets purchased and concluded that the purchase price would be allocated entirely to one intangible asset, a CLIA license. The contingent consideration of the $3.7 million milestone was determined to have a fair value of $0 by applying a weighted average probability on the achievement of the milestones developed during the valuation process. The Company will assess the fair value of the contingent consideration at each quarter and make adjustments as necessary until the milestone dates have expired.
6. Derivative Financial Instruments
Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted provisions of ASC Topic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entitys Own Equity (ASC Topic 815-40). ASC Topic 815-40 clarifies the determination of whether an instrument issued by an entity (or an embedded feature in the instrument) is indexed to an entitys own stock, which would qualify as a scope exception under ASC Topic 815-10.
Based upon the Companys analysis of the criteria contained in ASC Topic 815-40, Trovagene has determined that the warrants issued in connection with certain of its private placements and with its debentures must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly the warrants are also being re-measured at each balance sheet date based on estimated fair value, and any resultant changes in fair value are being recorded in the Companys statement of operations.
The Company estimates the fair value of the warrants issued in connection with certain of its private placements and with its debentures using the Black-Scholes model in order to determine the associated derivative instrument liability and change in fair value described above. The range of assumptions used to determine the fair value of the warrants at the end of each nine month period, September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011 were as follows:

7. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company has adopted FASB ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820) for financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable.
These financial instruments are stated at their respective historical carrying amounts which approximate fair value due to their short term nature.
The following tables present the Companys liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis classified under the appropriate level of the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2012:

The unrealized gains or losses on the derivative liabilities are recorded as a change in fair value of derivative liabilities in the Companys statement of operations. A financial instruments level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. At each reporting period, the Company reviews the assets and liabilities that are subject to ASC Topic 815-40. At each reporting period, all assets and liabilities for which the fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs or instruments which trade infrequently and therefore have little or no price transparency are classified as Level 3.
8. Commitments and Contingencies
Research Agreement
On June 27, 2012, the Company entered into a research agreement with University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) to provide samples and evaluate methods used by the Company in identification of pancreatic cancer mutations.

If the executive agreement is terminated by us without cause Mr. Zaniboni shall receive a severance payment equal to base compensation for three months if termination occurs ten months after the effective date of the agreement and six months if termination occurs subsequent to ten months from the effective date. If the executive agreement is terminated as a result of a change of control, Mr. Zaniboni shall receive a severance payment equal to base compensation for twelve months and all unvested stock options shall immediately vest and become fully exercisable for a period of six months following the date of termination.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report, including statements
regarding the future financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words believe, may, will, estimate, continue, anticipate, intend, should, plan, expect, and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions.
In addition, our business and financial performance may be affected by the factors that are discussed under Risk Factors in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2012. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
You should not rely upon forward looking statements as predictions of future events. We cannot assure you that the events and circumstances reflected in the forward looking statements will be achieved or occur. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of our management.
Overview
From August 4, 1999 (inception) through September 30, 2012 we have sustained a cumulative deficit of $48,866,386. From inception through September 30, 2012, we have generated minimal out-licensing revenue and expect to incur additional losses to perform further research and development activities and do not currently have any material revenues from commercial diagnostic or biopharmaceutical products.
Our product development efforts are thus in their early stages and we cannot make estimates of the costs or the time they will take to complete. The risk of completion of any program is high because of the many uncertainties involved in bringing new diagnostics or biopharmaceutical products to market potentially including the long duration of clinical testing, the specific performance of proposed products under stringent clinical trial protocols, the extended regulatory approval and review cycles, our ability to raise additional capital, the nature and timing of research and development expenses and competing technologies being developed by organizations with significantly greater resources.
Recent Developments
On March 15, 2012, the Board of Directors and on April 27, 2012 a majority of the stockholders approved a proposal to amend the Companys Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Companys issued and outstanding common stock at a ratio of not less than one-for-two and not greater than one-for-six at any time prior to April 27, 2013 at the discretion of the Board of Directors. On May 24, 2012, the Board of Directors approved a 1-for-6 reverse stock split of the Companys issued and outstanding common stock effective on May 29, 2012.
On May 30, 2012, we completed an underwritten public offering in which an aggregate of 1,150,000 units, with each unit consisting of two shares of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock were sold at a purchase price of $8.00 per unit. On June 13, 2012, the underwriters exercised their overallotment option in full for an additional 172,500 units. We raised a total of $9.1 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.7 million and offering expenses of $0.7 million. The units began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market on May 30, 2012 under the symbol TROVU. Upon the exercise in full of the underwriters overallotment, the units may be separated into common stock and warrants. Each warrant has an exercise price of $5.32 per share, and will expire five years from the closing of the offering. The warrants trade on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol TROVW.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Inflation
It is our opinion that inflation has not had a material effect on our operations.
Critical Accounting Policies
Revenues
We license and sublicense our patent rights to healthcare companies, medical laboratories and biotechnology partners. These agreements may involve multiple elements such as license fees, royalties and milestone payments. Revenue is recognized for each element when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.
· Up-front nonrefundable license fees pursuant to agreements under which we have no continuing performance obligations are recognized as revenues on the effective date of the agreement and when collection is reasonably assured.
· Minimum royalties are recognized as earned, and royalties in excess of minimum amounts are recognized upon receipt of payment when collection is assured.
· Milestone payments are recognized when both the milestone is achieved and the related payment is received. The Company has not received or recognized milestone payment revenues to date.
Derivative Financial Instruments-Warrants
Our derivative liabilities are related to warrants issued in connection with financing transactions and are therefore not designated as hedging instruments. All derivatives are recorded on our balance sheet at fair value in accordance with current accounting guidelines for such complex financial instruments.
We have issued common stock warrants in connection with the execution of certain equity and debt financings. Certain warrants are classified as derivative liabilities under the provisions of FASB ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), and are recorded at their fair market value as of each reporting period. Such warrants do not meet the exemption that a contract should not be considered a derivative instrument if it is (1) indexed to its own stock and (2) classified in stockholders equity. Changes in fair value of derivative liabilities are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations under the caption Change in fair value of derivative instruments. Warrants issued in connection with the underwritten public offering and sale of units in May 2012 are not considered derivatives based on our analysis of the criteria of ASC 815, as we are not required to make any cash payments or net cash settlement to the registered holder in lieu of issuance of warrant shares.
Research and Development
Research and development costs, which include expenditures in connection with an in-house research and development laboratory, salaries and staff costs, application and filing for regulatory approval of proposed products, purchased in-process research and development, regulatory and scientific consulting fees, as well as contract research and insurance, are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 730-10-55-2, Research and Development. Also, as prescribed by this guidance, patent filing and maintenance expenses are considered legal in nature and therefore classified as general and administrative expense. Costs are not allocated to projects as the majority of the costs relate to employees and facilities costs and we do not track employees hours by project or allocate facilities costs on a project basis.
Share-based Compensation
Share-based compensation expense for employees and directors is recognized in the statement of operations based on estimated amounts, including the grant date fair value and the expected service period. For stock options, we estimate the grant date fair value using a binomial valuation model, which requires the use of multiple subjective inputs including estimated future volatility, expected forfeitures and the expected term of the awards. Share-based compensation recorded in our statement of operations is based on awards expected to ultimately vest and has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. We recognize the value of the awards on a straight-line basis over the awards requisite service periods. The requisite service period is generally the time over which our share-based awards vest.
We account for equity instruments granted to non-employees in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50 Equity-Based Payment to Non-Employees where the value of the share-based compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a)
the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Accordingly the fair value of these options is being marked to market quarterly until the measurement date is determined.
Fair value of financial instruments
Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, debentures and derivative liabilities. We have adopted FASB ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820) for financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These financial instruments are stated at their respective historical carrying amounts which approximate to fair value due to their short term nature.
ASC 820 provides that the measurement of fair value requires the use of techniques based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. The inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
· Level 1 Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
· Level 2 Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations where inputs are observable or where significant value drivers are observable.
· Level 3 Instruments where significant value drivers are unobservable to third parties.

Research and development expenses increased by $310,509 to $511,433 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, from $200,924 for the same period in 2011. The $105,577 increase in salaries and staff costs was comprised of an approximately $23,000 increase related to the addition of personnel for our CLIA lab operations, $48,000 increase from new personnel added in 2012
as well as bonuses paid to existing personnel, and an increase of approximately $35,000 in stock based compensation related to options granted to research and development personnel. Of the $172,953 increase in outside services, consultants and lab supplies, approximately $67,000 results from our CLIA lab which started up in February 2012, and the remaining increase is due to an increase in lab supplies, samples and consultants used to support new research projects. The increase in facilities expense is comprised of primarily the following items: an increase of approximately $21,000 related to the addition of the CLIA lab, an increase of approximately $5,000 in depreciation expense, and an approximately $8,000 increase related to insurance for our CLIA lab operations.

General and administrative expenses increased by $152,812 to $739,042 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $586,230 for the same period in 2011. Salaries and staff costs increased primarily due to the implementation of a bonus plan in 2012 resulting in an increase in accrued bonuses of approximately $60,000, the addition of new personnel resulting in an increase of approximately $53,000, and an increase in stock based compensation of approximately $12,000. The increase in outside services and Board of Directors fees resulted primarily from the addition of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as well as share based compensation related to a warrant granted to a BOD member and an increase in costs associated with filing required documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Legal and accounting fees decreased in the three month period ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, as we incurred significant expenses related to audit and review of our Form 10 prepared during the first nine months of 2011 and initially filed in the fourth quarter of 2011.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
We issued securities that were accounted for as derivative liabilities at issuance. As of September 30, 2012, the derivative liabilities were revalued to $2,838,107, resulting in a net decrease in value of $388,750 from June 30, 2012, based primarily upon changes in the fair value as a result of changes in the closing stock price at September 30, 2012.
Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
There was no gain on extinguishment of debt in the three month period ended September 30, 2012, compared to $623,383 in the same period of 2011. The amount in 2011 resulted from the settlement with the holders of convertible debentures as a result of conversion of the amount owed into shares of Common Stock as consideration for their agreement to extinguish the debt.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011
Revenues
Our total revenues were $287,153 and $223,946 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and consisted of the following:

The milestone payment of $150,000 earned in 2012 was received upon achievement of a milestone with Ipsogen SAS. License fees decreased by $10,000 in the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 as there were fewer license agreements entered into during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011.

General and administrative expenses increased by $654,365 to $2,375,666 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $1,721,301 for the same period in 2011. The increase in salaries and staff costs consisted of an increase in accrued bonuses of approximately $247,000 based on the 2012 bonus plan and an increase of approximately $85,000 in stock based compensation related to options, partially offset by a decrease of approximately $152,000 in severance and employment settlement claims and a decrease of approximately $21,000 in salaries related to personnel who ceased employment with us. The increase in outside services resulted primarily from approximately $165,000 of stock based compensation related to warrant and stock issuances for advisory and public relations services, approximately $247,000 from the addition of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as well as services provided by outside business development and investor relations individuals, an increase of $97,000 related to public relations and an increase of $53,000 in EDGAR and XBRL expenses associated with SEC filings. Legal and accounting fees decreased in the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 compared to the prior year, as services related to assisting us with SEC compliance decreased as a result of completing our Form 10 early in 2012. Facilities expenses increased as a result of $14,000 increase in rent due to additional space, $9,000 increase in office supplies related to new employees, and a $5,000 increase in depreciation expense. The increase in other expenses resulted primarily from additional travel costs of approximately $42,000 in the first nine months of 2012, and was offset by a decrease in debt forgiveness of approximately $29,000 that was included in other expenses in 2011
Interest Expense
There was no interest expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $56,637 in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The interest expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 related to convertible debentures that were extinguished in July 2011.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
We issued securities that were accounted for as derivative liabilities at issuance during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. On May 30, 2012 we closed an underwritten public offering that removed the condition that required the securities issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as well as certain securities issued in prior periods, to be treated as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the fair value of these securities of $3,317,463 was reclassified from a liability to additional paid in capital. As of September 30, 2012, the remaining derivative liabilities were revalued to $2,838,107, resulting in a net increase in value of $1,843,481 from December 31, 2011, based primarily upon changes in the fair value as a result of the underwritten public offering.
Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
There was no gain on extinguishment of debt in the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, compared to $623,383 in the same period of 2011. The amount in 2011 resulted from the settlement with the holders of convertible debentures as a result of conversion of the amount owed into shares of Common Stock as consideration for their agreement to extinguish the debt.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2012, we had $7,815,128 in cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2012 we had working capital of $7,243,025, compared to a working capital deficit of $587,709 as of December 31, 2011. As of November 9, 2012, our working capital was approximately $6,898,000.
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $3,619,141, compared to $1,409,707 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Our use of cash was primarily a result of the net loss of $5,239,275 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, adjusted for non-cash items related to stock-based compensation of $349,010, depreciation and amortization of $26,331 and the change in fair value of derivatives of $1,824,565. The changes in our operating assets and liabilities consisted of lower accounts payable and accrued expenses and an increase in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses. At our current and anticipated level of operating loss, we expect to continue to incur an operating cash outflow for the next several years.
Investing activities consisted of purchases for capital equipment that used $212,220 in cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1,529 for the same period in 2011.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $10,946,115 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1,510,000 in 2011. Cash received from financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were from proceeds related to the sale of common stock.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuers management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, as of June 30, 2012, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, due to weaknesses in our financial closing process. We intend to implement remedial measures designed to address the ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding, nor is our property the subject of a pending legal proceeding, that is not in the ordinary course of business or otherwise material to the financial condition of our business. None of our directors, officers or affiliates is involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or has a material interest adverse to our business.
