Notes to Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(Expressed in U.S. Funds)
(Unaudited)
1. |
Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2016. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017. The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). This basis of accounting involves the application of accrual accounting and consequently, revenues and gains are recognized when earned, and expenses and losses are recognized when incurred.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary companies. On consolidation, all inter-entity transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The financial statements are expressed in U.S. funds.
Management has performed an evaluation of the Companys activities through the date and time these financial statements were issued and concluded that there are no additional significant events requiring recognition or disclosure.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards |
The FASB issued Update 2016-06, Derivatives and Hedging Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments, clarifying the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. The amendments in this Update require an entity performing the assessment to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordance with the four-step decision sequence. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results.
The FASB issued Update 2016-09, Compensation Stock Compensation Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, simplifying several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards (Cont'd) |
The FASB issued Update 2015-11, Inventory: Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, aligning the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The amendments in this Update state that an entity should measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results.
The FASB issued 2015-017, Income Taxes: Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which requires that deferred tax liabilities be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2017-09 Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Scope of Modification Accounting
In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09 which provides guidance on determining which changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards require an entity to apply modification accounting under Topic 718. The statement is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Restricted Cash
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18 which requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted or restricted cash equivalents. The statement is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-15 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15 which clarifies how certain cash receipts and payments are to be presented in the Statement of cash flows. The statement is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-01 Financial Instruments Overall (Subtopic 825-10) Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, which will significantly change practice for all entities. The targeted amendments to existing guidance are expected to include:
1. |
Equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method would be measured at fair value through net income, unless they qualify for the proposed practicability exception for investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. | |
2. |
Changes in instrument-specific credit risk for financial liabilities that are measured under the fair value option would be recognized in other comprehensive income. | |
3. |
Entities would make the assessment of the realizability of a deferred tax asset (DTA) related to an available- for-sale (AFS) debt security in combination with the entitys other DTAs. The guidance would eliminate one method that is currently acceptable for assessing the realizability of DTAs related to AFS debt securities. That is, an entity would no longer be able to consider its intent and ability to hold debt securities with unrealized losses until recovery. | |
4. |
Disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost would no longer be required for entities that are not public business entities. |

For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2017-04 Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
The FASB issued ASU 2017-04 which eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test and eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment. These amendments are effective for a public business entity for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2017-01 - Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business
The FASB issued ASU 2017-01 which clarifies the definition of a business and is intended to help companies evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. These amendments are effective for a public business entity for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted under certain circumstances and should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-16 Income Taxes (Topic 740) Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory
The FASB issued ASU 2016-16 and requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. These amendments are effective for a public business entity for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842) Section A
The FASB issued ASU 2016-02 to increase the transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
The FASB and IASB (the Boards) have issued converged standards on revenue recognition. ASU No. 2014-09 which affects any entity using U.S. GAAP that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps:
| Step 1: | Identify the contract(s) with a customer. | |
| Step 2: | Identify the performance obligations in the contract. | |
| Step 3: | Determine the transaction price. | |
| Step 4: | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. | |
| Step 5: | Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
In the year ended December 31, 2016, the FASB issued three new amendments related to Topic 606:
1. |
ASU 2016-08: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) which was issued to add clarification to the implementation guidance on principle versus agent considerations. This amendment does not provide any changes to the previously issued ASU No. 2014-09 and is effective for the same reporting period which was deferred by one year in ASU 2015-14: Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606), Deferral of the Effective Date. | |
| ||
2. |
ASU 2016-10: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing which was issued to clarifying the following two aspects of topic 606; identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance. This amendment does not provide any changes to the previously issued ASU No. 2014-09 and is effective for the same reporting period which was deferred by one year in ASU 2015-14: Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606), Deferral of the Effective Date. | |
| ||
3. |
ASU 2016-11 Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting. With this amendment, the SEC Staff is rescinding the following SEC Staff Observer comments that are codified in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and Topic 932, Extractive ActivitiesOil and Gas, effective upon adoption of Topic 606. This amendment is effective immediately. |

Company Background
We are a drug delivery company established in 2003 and headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Our focus is on the development of novel oral immediate-release and controlled-release products for the pharmaceutical market. Our business strategy is to develop pharmaceutical products based on our proprietary drug delivery technologies and, once the viability of a product has been demonstrated, to license the commercial rights to partners in the pharmaceutical industry. In certain cases, we rely upon partners in the pharmaceutical industry to fund development of the licensed products, complete the regulatory approval process with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or other regulatory agencies relating to the licensed products, and assume responsibility for marketing and distributing such products.
In addition, we may choose to pursue the development of certain products until the project reaches the marketing and distribution stage. We will assess the potential for successful development of a product and associated costs, and then determine at which stage it is most prudent to seek a partner, balancing such costs against the potential for additional returns earned by partnering later in the development process.
Our primary growth strategies include: (1) identifying lifecycle management opportunities for existing market leading pharmaceutical products, (2) repurposing existing drugs for new indications, (3) developing generic drugs where high technology barriers to entry exist in reproducing branded films, (4) manufacturing our VersaFilm products for commercial sale and (5) development of new drug delivery technologies.
Lifecycle Management Opportunities
We are seeking to position our delivery technologies as an opportunity for lifecycle management of products for which patent protection of the active ingredient is nearing expiration. While the patent for the underlying substance cannot be extended, patent protection can be obtained for a new and improved formulation by filing an application with the FDA under Section 505(b)(2) of the U.S. Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Such applications, known as a 505(b)(2) NDA, are permitted for new drug products that incorporate previously approved active ingredients, even if the proposed new drug incorporates an approved active ingredient in a novel formulation or for a new indication. A 505(b)(2) NDA may include information regarding safety and efficacy of a proposed drug that comes from studies not conducted by or for the applicant. The first formulation for a respective active ingredient filed with the FDA under a 505(b)(2) application may qualify for up to three years of market exclusivity upon approval. Based upon a review of past partnerships between third party drug delivery companies and pharmaceutical companies, management believes that drug delivery companies which possess innovative technologies to develop these special dosage formulations present an attractive opportunity to pharmaceutical companies. Accordingly, we believe 505(b)(2) products represent a viable business opportunity for us.
Repurposing Existing Drugs
We are working on the repurposing of already approved drugs for new indications using our VersaFilm film technology. This program represents a viable growth strategy for us as it will allow for reduced development costs, improved success rates and shorter approval times. We believe that through our repurposing program we will be able minimize the risk of developmental failure and create value for us and potential partners.
Generic Drugs with High Barriers to Entry
We plan to pursue the development of generic drugs that have certain barriers to entry, e.g., where product development and manufacturing is complex and can limit the number of potential entrants into the generic market. We plan to pursue such projects only if the number of potential competitors is deemed relatively insignificant.
VersaFilm Manufacturing
We have establishing a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility with the intent to manufacture all our VersaFilm products in house as we believe that this (1) represents a profitable business opportunity, (2) will reduce our dependency upon third-party contract manufacturers, thereby protecting our manufacturing process know-how and intellectual property, and (3) allows us to offer our development partners a full service from product conception through to supply of the finished product.

Corporate related developments
Expansion to the existing Manufacturing Facility
The Company has initiated a project to expand the existing manufacturing facility, the timing of which will be dictated in part by the completion of agreements with our commercial partners. This expansion became necessary following requests by commercial partners to increase manufacturing capacity and provide solvent film manufacturing capabilities. The new facility should create a fivefold increase of our production capacity in addition to offering a one-stop shopping opportunity to our partners and provide better protection of our Intellectual Property.
The Company has entered into a lease agreement for an additional 11,000 square feet of expansion space and the preparation for a facility expansion is ongoing.
All amounts are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.
Currency rate fluctuations
Our operating currency is Canadian dollars, while our reporting currency is U.S. dollars. Accordingly, our results of operations and balance sheet position have been affected by currency rate fluctuations. In summary, our financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 report an accumulated other comprehensive loss due to foreign currency translation adjustments of $663 due to the fluctuations in the rates used to prepare our financial statements, $356 of which positively impacted our comprehensive loss for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017. The following Management Discussion and Analysis takes this into consideration whenever material.

Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income (Loss) to Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA)
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-US GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of the Adjusted EBITDA is presented in the table below. The Company uses adjusted financial measures to assess its operating performance. Securities regulations require that companies caution readers that earnings and other measures adjusted to a basis other than US-GAAP do not have standardized meanings and are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure its performance from one period to the next without the variation caused by certain adjustments that could potentially distort the analysis of trends in our operating performance, and because the Company believes it provides meaningful information on the Companys financial condition and operating results.
IntelGenx obtains its Adjusted EBITDA measurement by adding to comprehensive income (loss), finance income and costs, depreciation and amortization, income taxes and foreign currency translation adjustment incurred during the period. IntelGenx also excludes the effects of certain non-monetary transactions recorded, such as share-based compensation, for its Adjusted EBITDA calculation. The Company believes it is useful to exclude these items as they are either non-cash expenses, items that cannot be influenced by management in the short term, or items that do not impact core operating performance. Excluding these items does not imply they are necessarily nonrecurring. Share-based compensation costs are a component of employee and consultants remuneration and can vary significantly with changes in the market price of the Companys shares. Foreign currency translation adjustments are a component of other comprehensive income and can vary significantly with currency fluctuations from one period to another. In addition, other items that do not impact core operating performance of the Company may vary significantly from one period to another. As such, Adjusted EBITDA provides improved continuity with respect to the comparison of the Companys operating results over a period of time. Our method for calculating Adjusted EBITDA may differ from that used by other corporations.

Revenue
Total revenues for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 amounted to $1,254, representing a decrease of $565 or 31% compared to $1,819 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2016. Total revenues for the Nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 amounted to $3,733, representing an increase of $424 or 13% compared to $3,309 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016. The decrease for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 compared to the last years corresponding period is mainly attributable to a decrease in license and other revenues $565. The increase for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 compared to the last years corresponding period is mainly attributable to an increase in license and other revenues of $1,475 offset by a decrease in royalties of $1,051.
Cost of royalty and license revenue
We recorded $97 for the cost of royalty and license revenue in the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 compared with $97 in the same period of 2016. We recorded $278 for the cost of royalty and license revenue in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 compared with $228 in the same period of 2016. This expense relates to a Project Transfer Agreement that was executed in May 2010 with one of our former development partners whereby we acquired full rights to, and ownership of, Forfivo XL®, our novel, high strength formulation of Bupropion hydrochloride, the active ingredient in Wellbutrin XL®. Pursuant to the Project Transfer Agreement, and following commercial launch of Forfivo XL® in October 2012, we are required, after recovering an aggregate $200 for management fees previously paid, to pay our former development partner 10% of net product sales received from the sale of Forfivo XL®. We recovered the final portion of the management fees in December 2014, thereby invoking payments to our former development partner. Following the monetization of Forfivo XL®s royalties, we are required to record 10% of the deferred revenues from the monetization as cost of royalty and license revenue until December 31, 2017 which represented $278 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017.
23
Research and development (R&D) expenses
R&D expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 amounted to $578, representing an increase of $190 or 49%, compared to $388 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2016.

The increase in R&D expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 is mainly attributable to increases in R&D salaries of $119 related to new hires, study costs of $91 and analytical costs of $62. The increase was partially offset by a reduction in patent costs of $77. The increase in R&D expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 is mainly attributable to increases in lab supplies of $204, R&D salaries of $318 related to new hires, study costs of $241, analytical costs of $114 and license fees of $40. The increase was partially offset by a reduction in patent costs of $350.

The decrease in SG&A expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 is mainly attributable to a decrease in business development expenses of $108 and professional fees of $207 partially offset by an increase in salaries of $48 and a variation of the foreign exchange expense of $136 due to the appreciation of the CAD dollar vs the US currency. The decrease in SG&A expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 is mainly attributable to a decrease in professional fees of $196 and business development expenses of $203 partially offset by an increase in manufacturing expenses of $111 and management and administrative salaries of $133, part of which is non-recurrent.
Depreciation of tangible assets
In the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 we recorded an expense of $185 for the depreciation of tangible assets, compared with an expense of $174 for the same period of the previous year. In the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 we recorded an expense of $525 for the depreciation of tangible assets, compared with an expense of $361 for the same period of the previous year.
