NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments and the elimination of intercompany accounts) considered necessary for a fair statement of all periods presented. The results of operations of Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation ("the Company") for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim periods or for a full fiscal year. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

Claims Liabilities

 

The Company's subsidiary, U.S. Compounding, Inc. ("USC"), was self-insured up to certain limits for health insurance through February 28, 2017. Beginning March 1, 2017, USC elected to participate in a fully insured health insurance plan. The Claims Payable related to the self-insured plan at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $0.  

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company's cash was $10,062,975 and $18,332,702 at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, including approximately $1.0 million in restricted cash held by the Bear State Bank, N.A. as collateral for a $2.0 million working capital line.  

 

The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities during the normal course of business. In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, consideration was given to the Company’s future business as described below, which may preclude the Company from realizing the value of certain assets.    

 

The Company has significant operating cash flow deficiencies. Additionally, the Company will need significant funding for future operations and the expenditures that it believes will be required to support commercialization of its products and conduct the clinical and regulatory activities relating to the Company’s product candidates, satisfy existing obligations and liabilities, and otherwise support the Company’s intended business activities and working capital needs. The preceding conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans include attempting to secure additional required funding through equity or debt financings, sales or out-licensing of intellectual property assets, seeking partnerships with other pharmaceutical companies or third parties to co-develop and fund research, development or commercialization efforts, or similar transactions. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining the necessary funding to meet its business objectives.

 

Basic and Diluted (Loss) per Share

 

The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing the loss attributable to holders of common stock for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The diluted loss per share calculation is based on the treasury stock method and gives effect to dilutive options, warrants, convertible notes, convertible preferred stock and other potential dilutive common stock. The effect of common stock equivalents was anti-dilutive and was excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding. Potential dilutive securities, which are not included in diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017, consist of outstanding equity classified warrants (3,189,052 and 9,012,469, respectively), outstanding options (9,246,202 and 6,353,189, respectively), and outstanding restricted stock units (1,642,212 and 1,300,000, respectively).

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

Utilizing the deferred effective date of January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), using the modified retrospective method with the cumulative effect of the change recognized in retained earnings. The new guidance, referred to as ASC 606, requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers and replaces most of the existing revenue recognition standards in U.S. GAAP. A five step model will be utilized to achieve the core principle; (1) identify the customer contract, (2) identify the contract’s performance obligations, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations and (5) recognize revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.  

The Company evaluated the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and determined that the timing of revenue recognition and amount of revenue recognized is not materially impacted under the new standard.  Accordingly, it did not have a material quantitative impact on the Company's revenue recognition relating to sales of compounded pharmacy formulations and other pharmacy products by USC.  The Company also determined that the modified retrospective adoption will have no impact on either the timing or amount of prior period revenues.  As a result, any comparative information has not been restated. See Note 2 for further details.

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 which allowed SEC registrants to record provisional amounts in earnings for the year ended December 31, 2017 due the complexities in accounting for the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA). The Company recognized the estimated income tax effects of the TCJA in its 2017 Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB No. 118”). At December 31, 2017, the Company remeasured its deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%. The remeasurement of the net deferred tax liability resulted in a provision benefit of $339,000 recorded through continuing operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements 

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. The amendments under this pronouncement will change the way all leases with a duration of one year or more are treated. Under this guidance, lessees will be required to capitalize virtually all leases on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and an associated financing lease liability or capital lease liability. The right-of-use asset represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the specified lease term. The lease liability represents the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, measured on a discounted basis. Based on certain characteristics, leases are classified as financing leases or operating leases. Financing lease liabilities, those that contain provisions similar to capitalized leases, are amortized like capital leases are under current accounting, as amortization expense and interest expense in the statement of operations. Operating lease liabilities are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease as lease expense in the statement of operations. This update is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 2: Revenues

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized pursuant to ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASC 606). Accordingly, revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. This principle is applied using the following 5-step process:

 

  1. Identify the contract with the customer
  2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract
  3. Determine the transaction price
  4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
  5. Recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied

 

The Company’s revenues are entirely attributed to its USC subsidiary. The only performance obligation identified with the Company’s sales arrangement is the delivery of the products; so revenue is recognized upon delivery of the promised goods to the customers. Revenue is measured at the point control transfers and represents the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring the goods. USC is a registered drug compounding outsourcing facility under Section 503B of the FDCA and the DQSA, provides prescription compounded medications to humans and animals, including compounded sterile preparations or CSPs, and non-sterile compounds to patients, physician clinics, hospitals, surgery centers and other clients throughout most of the United States. 

 

Disaggregation of Revenue

 

As operations under a sterile environment is covered by Section 503B of the U.S. Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act, as amended, and the U.S. Drug Quality and Security Act, it is governed by specific regulatory and quality requirements. Any deviation from these exacting standards would result in a stoppage of operations, recall of products, and a significant reduction in revenues. The Company employs rigorous quality controls and outside testing facilities to minimize the likelihood of this occurrence.

 

The following table presents the Company's revenues disaggregated by sterile and non-sterile regulatory environments for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

    March 31, 2018   March 31, 2017
Sterile   $ 1,770,736     $ 1,813,203  
Non-Sterile     1,408,499       1,224,648  
Total   $ 3,179,235     $ 3,037,851  

 

The revenues of the Company's pharmacy formulations rely, in large part, on sales generated from clinics/hospitals. Adverse economic conditions pose a risk that the Company's customers may reduce or cancel spending, which would impact the Company's revenue.

 

The following table presents the Company's revenue disaggregated by end market for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

    March 31, 2018   March 31, 2017
Clinics/Hospitals   $ 2,752,610     $ 2,654,279  
Direct to Patients     426,625       383,572  
Total   $ 3,179,235     $ 3,037,851

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities are deferred revenue that the Company records when cash payments are received or due in advance of the Company's performance obligations. The Company’s performance obligation is met when control of the promised goods is transferred to the Company's customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, $14,758 of the revenues recognized were reported as contract liabilities as of December 31, 2017.

Practical Expedients

USC pays commissions on certain sales once the customer payment has been received, which are accrued at the time of the sale.  The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within sales and marketing expenses.

Note 3: Acquisition of U.S. Compounding 

 

On April 11, 2016, the Company acquired the net assets and assumed the principal debt obligations of U.S. Compounding, Inc. in a merger transaction (the “Merger”) pursuant to which we acquired USC and USC continued as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.  USC is registered as a drug compounding outsourcing facility under Section 503B of the U.S. Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act, as amended, and the U.S. Drug Quality and Security Act, and provides prescription compounded medications, including compounded sterile preparation and certain nonsterile drugs, to patients, physician clinics, hospitals, surgery centers and other clients throughout most of the United States.  USC also provides certain veterinary pharmaceutical drugs for animals.  The total consideration for the transaction was $15,967,942.                    

   

Note 4: Inventories

 

Inventories at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 consisted of the following: 

 

    March 31, 2018   December 31, 2017
Finished Goods   $ 516,414     $ 256,050  
Raw Material     489,604       560,828  
Devices     1,333,223       1,007,680  
    $ 2,339,241     $ 1,824,558  

  

 Reserve for obsolescence as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was approximately $1,093,000 and $795,000, respectively.

Note 7: Debt

 

Ben Franklin Note

 

Biosyn, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued a note payable to Ben Franklin Technology Center of Southeastern Pennsylvania (“Ben Franklin Note”) in October 1992, in connection with funding the development of Savvy, a compound then under development to prevent the transmission of HIV/AIDS.

 

The Ben Franklin Note was recorded at its estimated fair value of $205,000 and was assumed by the Company as an obligation in connection with its acquisition of Biosyn in 2004. The repayment terms of the non-interest bearing obligation include the remittance of an annual fixed percentage of 3.0% applied to future revenues of Biosyn, if any, until the principal balance of $777,902 (face amount) is satisfied. Under the terms of the obligation, revenues are defined to exclude the value of unrestricted research and development funding received by Biosyn from nonprofit sources. Absent a material breach of contract or other event of default, there is no obligation to repay the amounts in the absence of future Biosyn revenues. The Company accreted the discount of $572,902 against earnings using the interest rate method (approximately 46%) over the discount period of five years, which was estimated in connection with the Ben Franklin Note’s valuation at the time of the acquisition.

 

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States emphasize market-based measurement through the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable or market-based inputs. The Ben Franklin Note’s peculiar repayment terms outlined above affects its comparability with main stream market issues and also affects its transferability. The value of the Ben Franklin Note would also be impacted by the ability to estimate Biosyn’s expected future revenues which in turn hinge largely upon future efforts to commercialize the product candidate, the results of which efforts are not known by the Company. Given the above factors and therefore the lack of market comparability, the Ben Franklin Note would be valued based on Level 3 inputs (see Note 8). As such, management has determined that the Ben Franklin Note will have no future cash flows, as we do not believe the product will create a revenue stream in the future. As a result, the Ben Franklin Note had no fair market value at the time of the merger in April 2009 between the Company (which was then named Cellegy Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) and the corporation then-named Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation.

 

Working Capital Line of Credit

On March 28, 2016, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (sometimes referred to as the “Adamis Working Capital Line”) with Bear State Bank, N.A. (the “Lender” or the “Bank”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate of $2,000,000 to provide working capital to USC, subject to the terms and conditions of the loan agreement. Interest on amounts borrowed under the Adamis Working Capital Line accrues at a rate equal to the prime interest rate, as defined in the agreement. Interest payments are required to be made quarterly. As amended effective March 31, 2017, the entire outstanding principal balance, and all accrued and unpaid interest and all other sums payable pursuant to the loan documents, are due and payable on March 1, 2018, or sooner upon the occurrence of certain events as provided in the loan agreement and related documents. Effective March 1, 2018, the Company agreed with the Lender to extend the maturity date of this loan to June 1, 2018. The Company’s obligations under the loan agreement are secured by certain collateral, including without limitation its interest in amounts that it has loaned to USC, and a warrant that the Company issued to the Bank to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to par value per share, exercisable only if the Company is in default under the loan agreement or related loan documents.

On November 10, 2016, the Adamis Working Capital Line with the Bank was amended to include a Certificate of Deposit for $1.0 million as additional collateral to the working capital line of credit, and to make certain other amendments to the loan documents relating to the Adamis Working Capital Line. The $1.0 million in Certificate of Deposit with the Bank, included as collateral, was recorded as Restricted Cash.

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the loan balance on the Adamis Working Capital Line of credit was $2,000,000. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 related to the loan was approximately $23,000 and $19,000, respectively.

Loans Assumed from Acquisition of USC: 

Building Loan  

In connection with the closing of the USC Merger and the agreements relating to the transaction, 4 HIMS, LLC, an entity of which Eddie Glover, the chief executive officer of USC, and certain other former stockholders of USC are members, agreed to sell to the Company, the building and property owned by 4 HIMS on which USC’s offices are located, in consideration of the Company being added as an additional ”borrower” and assuming the obligations under the loan agreement, promissory note and related loan documents that 4 HIMS and certain other parties previously entered into with the Lender (the “4 HIMS Loan Documents”).

On November 10, 2016, a Loan Amendment and Assumption Agreement was entered with into the Bank. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to pay the Bank monthly payments of principal and interest of $15,411, with a final balloon payment and any other amounts due under the 4 HIMS Loan Document due and payable in August 2019.    

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the outstanding principal balance owed on the applicable note was approximately $2,323,000 and $2,347,000, respectively. The loan currently bears an interest of 3.75% per year and interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $22,000 and $23,000, respectively.

USC Working Capital Loan

In connection with our acquisition of USC, Adamis agreed to be added as a Borrower and to assume the obligations as a Borrower under the USC Working Capital Loan Agreement and related promissory note and other related loan documents (the “USC Working Capital Loan Documents”). Under the USC Working Capital Loan Agreement, Lender agreed to loan funds to USC, as the “Borrower,” up to an aggregate principal amount of $2,500,000, evidenced by the USC Working Capital Note. Borrowings are limited to 80% of qualified trade accounts receivables and 50% of qualified inventories as determined under the USC Working Capital Loan Documents, and are collateralized with trade accounts receivables and inventory.

On November 10, 2016, the Company and Lender agreed to amend the USC Working Capital Loan Documents to provide that the personal property securing the Borrower’s obligations under the loan documents will also secure the Borrower’s obligations under the other USC Loan Documents with the Lender. In addition, a new financial covenant replaced the previous financial covenants, providing that USC will, at all times during the term of the loan, maintain a “Cash Flow Coverage Ratio” of not less than 1.2:1. “Cash Flow Coverage Ratio” is defined as: (i) net income plus non-cash expense items including, but not limited to, depreciation expense, amortization expense and option expense for the month in which the measurement date occurs times 12; divided by (ii) the cash required for payments of interest for the prospective twelve (12) month period and current maturities of principal on all outstanding debt to any person or entity, including without limitation to debt by the Company to the Lender. The Cash Flow Coverage Ratio will be measured on the last day of each December, March, June and September, commencing on December 31, 2017.  Under the amendment, in lieu of compliance with the foregoing covenant, Borrower has the option, at the time of each quarterly measuring period, of making a principal reduction in the amount of $250,000. 

In addition, pursuant to the amendment, Borrower and Lender agreed that certain other financial covenants set forth in the loan agreement included in the 4 HIMS Loan Documents, the loan agreement included in the Tribute Loan Documents, and the loan agreement included in the USC Equipment Loan Agreement, as well as the original USC Working Capital Loan Agreement described above, are waived for the remainder of the term of the respective loans. The amended loan had a maturity date of September 30, 2017. In May 2017, the Company paid the remaining balance of the USC Working Capital Loan. In November 2017, the Company agreed with the Lender to extend the term of the USC Working Capital Loan agreement to February 28, 2018. There was no outstanding balance on the USC Working Capital Line at its maturity date, and that agreement has not currently been renewed or extended.        

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the outstanding unpaid principal balance was $0. Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $0 and $16,000, respectively.

  Equipment Loans, Consolidated 

Equipment Loan, Tribute. In connection with the Merger, Tribute Labs, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company and former related party of USC (“Tribute” or “Borrower”) assigned to Adamis all of its rights under the loan agreement, promissory note and related loan documents that Tribute and certain other parties previously entered into with the Lender (the “Tribute Loan Documents”). Adamis agreed to become an additional co-borrower and to assume Borrower’s obligations under the Tribute Loan Documents, in consideration of the transfer to USC of laboratory equipment owned by Tribute and used to perform testing services for USC’s formulations, and Lender consented to such assignment. The outstanding unpaid principal balance under the applicable note that was consolidated, as described below, to one equipment loan was approximately $518,000. Prior to the consolidation, the loan had an interest rate of 4.75% per year.

USC Equipment Loan. In connection with the Merger, Adamis agreed to become a Borrower and to assume the obligations as a Borrower under the USC Equipment Loan Agreement and the related USC Equipment Loan Documents. Under the USC Equipment Loan Agreement, Lender agreed to loan funds to USC, as the ”Borrower,” up to an aggregate principal amount of $700,000, with amounts loaned evidenced by the Commercial Line of Credit Agreement and Note (the “USC Equipment Note”). The loan is collateralized by USC’s property and equipment. The outstanding unpaid principal balance under the USC Equipment Note that was consolidated to one equipment loan was approximately $635,000. The note had an interest rate of 3.25% per year.

Consolidated Equipment Loans. On November 10, 2016, the Company and the Lender agreed to the amendment and consolidation of the above USC and Tribute equipment loans. The principal amount of the consolidated loans is $1,152,890 with an interest rate of 3.75% per annum. The loan is payable in three years at an equal monthly amortization of $33,940 commencing on November 1, 2016, and continuing on the first day of each succeeding month through October 1, 2019. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the outstanding unpaid principal balance was approximately $625,000 and $720,000, respectively. Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $6,000 and $10,000, respectively. 

Loan Amendment, Forbearance and Assumption Agreement

In connection with the Company's acquisition of USC in April 2016, Lender, Adamis, USC, 4 HIMS and Tribute (USC, 4 HIMS and Tribute sometimes referred to as the “Initial Loan Parties” and together with Adamis, collectively the “Loan Parties”), and certain individual guarantors, entered into a Loan Amendment, Forbearance and Assumption Agreement (the “Loan Amendment Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Loan Amendment Agreement, Adamis was added as a “Borrower” and co-borrower under the loan agreements and related loan documents between USC (and certain other entities) and Lender (the “USC Loan Documents”), and assumed all of the rights, duties, liabilities and obligations as a Borrower and a party under the USC Loan Documents, jointly and severally with the current borrower or borrowers under each of the USC Loan Documents. As part of the Loan Amendment Agreement, the parties also agreed that the real and personal property securing each of the USC Loans will also secure each of the other USC Loans, as well as the Adamis Working Capital Line of $2.0 million.  Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Amendment Agreement, as amended, the terms and provisions set forth in the USC Loan Documents were not modified and remain in full force and effect. 

The notes evidencing the foregoing loans from the Lender are subject to customary subjective acceleration clauses, effective upon a material impairment in collateral, a material adverse change in the Company’s business or financial condition, or a material impairment in the Company’s ability to repay the note.  As of March 31, 2018, the Company was not in breach of any of the debt covenants.

At March 31, 2018, the principal maturities of the amended long-term debts were as follows:

Note 8: Fair Value Measurement  

 

Fair value measurements adopted by the Company are based on the authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels, which are described below: 

 

Level 1:

 

Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

 

Level 2:

 

Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in inactive markets; or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated with observable market data.

 

Level 3:

 

Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, notes receivables, accounts payable, notes payable, accrued liabilities and other payables approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. 

 

Note 9: Stock Option Plans, Shares Reserved and Warrants

 

On January 1, 2018, pursuant to the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan the number of shares reserved for the issuance of stock awards increased by 1,669,471 shares. 

 

On February 21, 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 2,400,789 shares of common stock to the officers and employees of the Company under the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan with an exercise price of $2.83 per share. The options were granted based on a guideline and not for performance during the year ended December 31, 2017 and will vest over a period of three years. These options were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the expected volatility was approximately 57% and the risk-free interest rate was approximately 2.86%, which resulted in a calculated fair value of approximately $3,764,000. 

 

    On February 21, 2018, the Company awarded Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) covering 342,212 shares of common stock to certain officers of the Company under the 2009 Plan; as of the date of grant, the market price of the common stock was $2.83 per share. These RSUs vest in equal amounts each year on the anniversary date over a period of three years from grant date provided that the recipient has continued to provide services to the Company, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain events including a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in the 2009 Plan and Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), or earlier upon the recipient’s separation from service to the Company by reason of death or disability (as defined in the 2009 Plan and Section 409A). The calculated fair value of the RSUs was $968,460.

Such statements are not historical facts, but are based on our current expectations, estimates and beliefs about our business and industry. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements about our strategies, objectives and our future achievements; our expectations for growth; estimates of future revenue; our sources and uses of cash; our liquidity needs; our current or planned clinical trials or research and development activities; anticipated completion dates for clinical trials; product development timelines; anticipated dates for commercial introduction of products; our future products; regulatory matters; our expectations concerning the timing of regulatory approvals; anticipated dates for meetings with regulatory authorities and submissions to obtain required regulatory marketing approvals; expense, profit, cash flow, or balance sheet items or any other guidance regarding future periods; and other statements concerning our future operations and activities.  Such forward-looking statements include those that express plans, anticipation, intent, contingencies, goals, targets or future development and/or otherwise are not statements of historical fact.  These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and projections about future events, and they are subject to risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology, such as “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “may,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “should,” and “would,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Any forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed throughout this Report. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and concern matters that could subsequently differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Actual events or results may differ materially from those discussed in this Report. In addition, many forward-looking statements concerning our anticipated future business activities assume that we are able to obtain sufficient funding in the near term and thereafter to support such activities and continue our operations and planned activities. As discussed elsewhere in this Report, we will require additional funding to continue operations, and there are no assurances that such funding will be available. Failure to timely obtain required funding would adversely affect and could delay or prevent our ability to realize the results contemplated by such forward-looking statements. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise.  In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor 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.  Because factors referred to elsewhere in this Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (sometimes referred to as the “2017 Form 10-K”) that we previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation the “Risk Factors” section in this Report and in the 2017 Form 10-K, could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.  Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and except as may be required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements or to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of this Report. Important risks and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in these forward-looking statements are disclosed in this Report including, without limitation, under the headings “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors,” and “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and in our 2017 Form 10-K, including, without limitation, under the headings “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors,” “Part I, Item 1. Business,” and “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases and other communications.

We are a specialty biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing products in the therapeutic areas of respiratory disease and allergy. Our products and product candidates in the allergy and respiratory markets include Symjepi™ (epinephrine) Injection 0.3mg which was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, in 2017 for use in the emergency treatment of acute allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis; Symjepi™ (epinephrine) Injection 0.15mg which is intended for use in the treatment of anaphylaxis for patients weighing 33-65 pounds for which we submitted a supplemental new drug application, or sNDA, to the FDA in November 2017; a naloxone injection product candidate (APC-6000) based on the approved Symject™ injection device and intended for the treatment of opioid overdose for which we submitted an investigational new drug application, or IND, in December 2017 and have commenced a pharmacokinetic (PK) study intended to support a New Drug Application (NDA) which we hope to file later this year, assuming, among other things, adequate funding and timely and successful completion of the study; a beclomethasone metered dose inhaler product candidate (APC-1000) intended for the treatment of asthma and for which we submitted an IND in January 2018; and fluticasone (APC-4000) dry powder inhaler, or DPI, product candidate for the treatment of asthma.  Our goal is to create low cost therapeutic alternatives to existing treatments. Consistent across all specialty pharmaceuticals product lines, we intend to submit New Drug Applications, or NDAs, under Section 505(b)(2), or Section 505(j) Abbreviated New Drug Applications, or ANDAs, to the FDA, whenever possible, in order to potentially reduce the time to market and to save on costs, compared to those associated with Section 505(b)(1) NDAs for new drug products. Our U.S. Compounding, Inc. subsidiary, which is registered as a drug compounding outsourcing facility under Section 503B of the U.S. Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act, as amended and the U.S. Drug Quality and Security Act, or DQSA, provides prescription compounded medications, including compounded sterile preparations and nonsterile compounds, to patients, physician clinics, hospitals, surgery centers and other clients throughout most of the United States.

Epinephrine Injection USP 1:1000 0.3mg Pre-Filled Single Dose Syringe

 

On June 15, 2017, the FDA approved the Company’s Symjepi™ (epinephrine) Injection 0.3mg product for the emergency treatment of allergic reactions (Type I) including anaphylaxis. Symjepi™ (epinephrine) Injection 0.3mg is intended to deliver a dose of epinephrine, which is used for emergency, immediate administration in acute anaphylactic reactions to insect stings or bites, allergic reaction to certain foods, drugs and other allergens, as well as idiopathic or exercise-induced anaphylaxis.

 

On November 27, 2017, we submitted an sNDA to the FDA for a lower dose version (0.15mg). SYMJEPI™ (epinephrine) Injection 0.3mg is designed for patients weighing 66 pounds or greater. The lower dose Symjepi™ (epinephrine) Injection 0.15mg product candidate is intended for patients weighing 33 to 66 pounds.  On February 9, 2018, we received correspondence from the FDA indicating that the agency had determined that the sNDA was sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review. The agency indicated that no potential review issues were identified as of the date of the correspondence and that if no major deficiencies were identified in the agency’s continued review, the agency was targeting September 3, 2018, to communicate proposed labeling and, if necessary, any post-marketing requirement or commitment requests.  There can be no assurances regarding the timing of outcome of the FDA’s review of our sNDA.

In connection with our process of exploring commercialization options for Symjepi™ (epinephrine) Injection 0.3mg in the U.S. market after the FDA approval, we retained an investment bank to assist us. We determined to engage in a process with the goal of maximizing the value of the asset. The process has been ongoing and as of the date of this Report, we are in discussions with potential partners regarding commercialization of the product. However, the timing of a commercial launch will depend on a number of factors, including without limitation whether we enter into an agreement with a commercialization partner and, if we enter into such an agreement, the terms of any such agreement and the plans of the commercialization partner. If we do not enter into an agreement with a commercialization partner, then we anticipate that we would seek to commercialize the product ourselves. As a result, there are no assurances regarding whether we will enter into an agreement with a commercialization partner, when we may enter into any such agreement, or the date of a commercial launch of Symjepi™ (epinephrine) Injection 0.3mg.

Going Concern and Management’s Plan

 

Our independent registered public accounting firm has included a “going concern” explanatory paragraph in its report on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 indicating that we have incurred recurring losses from operations and are dependent on additional financing to fund operations, and that these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  As of March 31, 2018, we had cash of approximately $10.1 million, including approximately $1.0 million in restricted cash, an accumulated deficit of approximately $121.6 million, and liabilities of approximately $10.3 million. We anticipate that we will need significant funding during 2018 to continue operations, satisfy our obligations and fund the future expenditures that we believe will be required to support commercialization of our products and conduct the clinical and regulatory work to develop our product candidates. Such additional funding may not be available, may not be available on reasonable terms, and could result in significant additional dilution to our stockholders. If we do not obtain required additional equity or debt funding in the near future, our cash resources will be depleted and we could be required to materially reduce or suspend operations, which would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, stock price and our relationships with third parties with whom we have business relationships, at least until additional funding is obtained.

 

The above conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein for the three months ended March 31, 2018, were prepared under the assumption that we would continue our operations as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities during the normal course of business. In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, consideration was given to our future business as described elsewhere herein, which may preclude us from realizing the value of certain assets. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of our assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Without additional funds in 2018 from debt or equity financing, sales of assets, sales or out-licenses of intellectual property, products, product candidates or technologies, or from a business combination or a similar transaction, after expenditure of our existing cash resources we would exhaust our resources and be unable to continue operations.

 

Our management intends to attempt to secure additional required funding through equity or debt financings, sales or out-licensing of intellectual property assets, products, product candidates or technologies, seeking partnerships with other pharmaceutical companies or third parties to co-develop and fund research and development efforts, or similar transactions, and through revenues from sales of compounded sterile formulations. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any sources of funding. If we are unsuccessful in securing funding from any of these sources, we will defer, reduce or eliminate certain planned expenditures, delay development or commercialization of some or all of our products and reduce the scope of our operations. If we do not have sufficient funds to continue operations, we could be required to seek bankruptcy protection or other alternatives that could result in our stockholders losing some or all of their investment in us.

Results of Operations  

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017

 

Revenues.  Revenues were approximately $3,179,000 and $3,038,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The increase in revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the comparable period of 2017 reflected an increase in the volume of sales of USC’s compounded pharmaceutical formulations resulting in part from increased sales and marketing personnel and efforts.   

 

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold was approximately $2,063,000 and $1,665,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our cost of goods sold includes direct and indirect costs to manufacture formulations, including active pharmaceutical ingredients, personnel costs, packaging, storage, shipping and handling costs, the write-off of obsolete inventory and other related expenses. The cost of goods sold did not increase proportionately with the increase in revenue from the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the comparable period of 2017, primarily due to an increase of approximately $205,000 in direct and indirect salaries, wages and related benefits; an increase of approximately $45,000 due to obsolete inventory; and an increase of approximately $148,000 in product testing, freight, consulting expenses, occupancy costs, and repairs and maintenance.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) consist primarily of depreciation and amortization, legal fees, accounting and audit fees, professional/consulting fees and employee compensation. SG&A expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $6,474,000 and $5,573,000, respectively. Compensation expense for SG&A employees increased by approximately $545,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the comparable period of 2017, primarily due to new hires, increases in salary expenses and bonus accruals, stock options granted, and other employee benefits.  Approximately $356,000 of the increase in the 2018 period compared to the same period of 2017 was due to increases in accounting, audit and other professional fees, PDUFA fees, patent expenses, selling expenses and market research expenses related to Symjepi™ (epinephrine) and our APC-6000 product candidate.

 

Research and Development Expenses.  Our research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Non-refundable advance payments for goods and services to be used in future research and development activities are recorded as an asset and are expensed when the research and development activities are performed. Research and development expenses were approximately $2,249,000 and $1,510,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the comparable period of the prior year was due in part to an increase of approximately $330,000 in development costs of our product candidates. This amount was partially offset by a decrease of approximately $186,000 in development costs primarily attributable to the APC-1000 product candidate. Compensation expense for Research and Development employees increased by approximately $312,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the comparable period of 2017, primarily due to new hires, increases in salary expenses and bonus accruals, stock options granted, and other employee benefits. Research and development costs for the three months ended March 31, 2018, also included a reserve of approximately $283,000 relating to Symjepi™ inventory that is expected to expire before its resale.   

 

Other Expense. Other Income (Expense) consists of interest expense and interest income.  Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $12,000 and $63,000, respectively.  The decrease in other expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the comparable period of 2017, was primarily due to a decrease in debt related expense (Interest Expense) of approximately $16,000 and an increase of interest income of approximately $35,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have incurred net losses of approximately $7.6 million and $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Since inception, and through March 31, 2018, we have an accumulated deficit of approximately $121.6 million. Since inception and through March 31, 2018, we have financed operations principally through debt financing and through public and private issuances of common stock and preferred stock. We anticipate that we will need significant additional funding during 2018 to satisfy our obligations and fund the future expenditures that we believe will be required to support commercialization of our products and conduct the clinical and regulatory work to develop our product candidates. We expect to finance future cash needs primarily through proceeds from equity or debt financings, loans, sales of assets, out-licensing transactions, and/or collaborative agreements with corporate partners, and from revenues from our sale of compounded pharmacy formulations.

 

Total assets were approximately $43.8 million and $51.4 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.   Current assets exceed current liabilities by approximately $6.5 million and $12.7 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. 

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, was approximately $7.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities increased primarily due to the increase in operating losses; increase in accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid expenses; and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses as compared to 2017.

 

21

 

 

 

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $201,000 and $64,000 for three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The net cash used in investing activities increased primarily due to the purchase of additional equipment.

 

Net cash used by financing activities was approximately $120,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2018, and net cash used in financing activities was approximately $115,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Net cash flows provided by financing activities consisted of principal payments under USC's building and equipment loans.   

 

As noted above under the heading “Going Concern and Management Plan,” through March 31, 2018, Adamis had incurred substantial losses. The availability of any required additional funding cannot be assured. If we do not obtain additional equity or debt funding in the near future, our cash resources will be depleted and we will be required to materially reduce or suspend operations. Even if we are successful in obtaining additional funding to permit us to continue operations at the levels that we desire, substantial time will pass before we obtain regulatory marketing approval for any products and begin to realize revenues from sales of specialty pharmaceutical products, and during this period Adamis will require additional funds. No assurance can be given as to the timing or ultimate success of obtaining future funding. The Company will be required to devote additional cash resources, which could be significant, in order to continue development and commercialization of our product candidates and to support our other operations and activities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates 

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

The Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 have not significantly changed. Refer to Note 1 to the accompanying financial statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the additional policy adopted during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure of Market Risk

 

Not required.

 

 
 

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports, filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance and not absolute assurance of achieving their objectives.  In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

As required by the SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.  

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There has been no change during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
