CYTORI THERAPEUTICS, INC.
June 30, 2015
(UNAUDITED)
1. | Basis of Presentation |
Our accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements as of June 30, 2015 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. Our consolidated condensed balance sheet at June 30, 2015 has been derived from the audited financial statements at December 31, 2014, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of Cytori Therapeutics, Inc., and our subsidiaries (the Company) have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes therein included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
2. | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our most significant estimates and critical accounting policies involve recognizing revenue, valuing warrants, determining the assumptions used in measuring share-based compensation expense, measuring accretion expense related to our acquisition of the joint venture, and valuing allowances for doubtful accounts and inventories.
Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management’s estimates and assumptions are reviewed regularly, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in the periods they are determined to be necessary.
3. | Capital Availability |
We have net income of $4.5 million and net loss of $17.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively and incurred net losses of $11.8 million and $22.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. We have an accumulated deficit of $356 million as of June 30, 2015. Additionally, we have used net cash of $9.8 million and $18.1 million to fund our operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. To date, these operating losses have been funded primarily from outside sources of invested capital and gross profits. On May 5, 2015, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell up to $25 million of units, with each unit consisting of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of its common stock.
Pursuant to the recently announced securities transaction and related equity issuance, as well as anticipated gross profits and potential outside sources of capital, the Company believes it has sufficient cash to fund operations through at least the next 12 months. The Company continues to seek additional capital through product revenues, strategic transactions, including extension opportunities under the awarded U.S. Department of Health and Human Service’s Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (“BARDA”) contract, and from other financing alternatives.
See Note 12 for further discussion on our May 2015 Securities Purchase Agreement.
4. | Transactions with Olympus Corporation |
On April 30, 2015, the Company entered into Amendment One to Joint Venture Termination Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Olympus Corporation (“Olympus”) to that certain Joint Venture Termination Agreement, dated May 8, 2013, by and between the Company and Olympus (the “Agreement”) in order to extend our payment obligations under the Agreement.
Under the original Agreement, we were required to pay Olympus a total purchase price of $6 million within two years of the date of the Agreement. The Amendment amends the payment terms of the Agreement to extend the period for payment of the remaining balance of the $6 million, or $3.2 million, with the balance of the purchase price bearing an interest rate of 6% per annum. Pursuant to the Amendment, we paid $1 million on May 8, 2015 and are required to pay $0.5 million of principal on or prior to September 30, 2015, $0.5 million of principal on or prior to December 31, 2015, $0.5 million of principal on or prior to March 31, 2016, and the remaining $0.7 million of principal and accrued interest on or prior to May 8, 2016. We may prepay the remaining principal and accrued interest at any time without penalty.
In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, if we fail to pay the full balance of any installment payment, we will be required to pay Olympus the extended purchase price of a total of $16 million on or prior to March 1, 2020, with any principal payments previously paid applied towards the extended purchase price.
5. | Long-term Debt |
On May 29, 2015 we entered into the Loan and Security Agreement with Oxford Finance LLC (“Oxford” or “Lender”), pursuant to which the Lender funded an aggregate principal amount of $17.7 million (“Term Loan”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the loan agreement. The Term Loan accrues interest at a floating rate of 8.95% per annum, comprised of three-month LIBOR rate with a floor of 1.00% plus 7.95%. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, we are required to make interest only payments through June 1, 2016 and thereafter we are required to make payments of principal and accrued interest in equal monthly installments sufficient to amortize the Term loan through June 1, 2019, the maturity date. If we receive positive data on our US ACT-OA clinical trial or close a licensing, partnership or similar transaction on terms acceptable to the Lender by May 31, 2016, the interest only payments will be extended to December 1, 2016. All unpaid principal and interest with respect to the Term Loan is due and payable in full on June 1, 2019. At maturity of the Term Loan, or earlier repayment in full following voluntary prepayment or upon acceleration, the Company is required to make a final payment fee in an aggregate amount equal to approximately $1.1 million. In connection with the Term Loan, on May 29, 2015, we issued to the Lender warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,416,618 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.69 per share. These warrants are exercisable on or after November 30, 2015 and will expire on May 29, 2025, and following the authoritative accounting guidance, are equity classified.
In connection with the Loan Agreement, we prepaid all outstanding amounts under our prior loan agreement, at which time the Company’s obligations under the prior loan agreement immediately terminated. The Company paid to the prior agent and the prior lenders (Oxford Finance LLC and Silicon Valley Bank) approximately $25.4 million, consisting of the then outstanding principal balance due of approximately $23.4 million, accrued but unpaid interest of approximately $0.2 million, final payment and other agency fees of approximately $1.8 million and other customary lender fees and expenses.
For Oxford, we accounted for this Term Loan as a debt modification. The Company retired $3.1 million of the principal of the previous loan and the corresponding unamortized fees were expensed. The remaining fees of $0.8 million, were recorded as debt discount, and along with the new loan fees, will be amortized as an adjustment of interest expense using the effective interest method. For Silicon Valley Bank, which did not participate in the Term Loan, the payoff of the loan was accounted for as debt extinguishment. Accordingly, a total loss on debt extinguishment of $0.3 million was recorded, which includes the unamortized fees and discounts along with final payment fees.
We allocated the aggregate proceeds of the Term Loan between the warrants and the debt obligations based on their relative fair values. The fair value of the warrants issued to the Lender was calculated utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model incorporates various and highly sensitive assumptions including expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the most recent period. The risk-free interest rate for period within the contractual life of the warrant is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant. We will amortize the relative fair value of the warrants as a discount of $0.8 million over the term of the loan using the effective interest method, with an effective interest rate of 14.95%. The Term Loan is collateralized by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s existing and after-acquired assets, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Loan Agreement and excluding its intellectual property assets, which are subject to a negative pledge.

Research and Development
We earn revenue for performing tasks under research and development agreements with governmental agencies like the BARDA. Revenues derived from reimbursement of direct out-of-pocket expenses for research costs associated with government contracts are recorded as government contract and other within development revenues. Government contract revenue is recorded at the gross amount of the reimbursement. The costs associated with these reimbursements are reflected as a component of research and development expense in our statements of operations. We recognized $1.8 million and $3.3 million in BARDA revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively as compared to $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

8. | Income (Loss) per Share |
Basic per share data is computed by dividing net income or loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share data is computed by dividing net income or loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding as calculated using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares were related entirely to outstanding but unexercised options and warrants for all periods presented.
We have included 8.4 million dilutive securities for the purposes of calculating earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2015. We have excluded all potentially dilutive securities, including unvested performance-based restricted stock, from the calculation of diluted loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the six month period ended June 30, 2015 and three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, as their inclusion would be antidilutive. Potentially dilutive common shares excluded from the calculations of diluted loss per share were 55.1 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 22.5 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies |
We have entered into agreements with various research organizations for pre-clinical and clinical development studies, which have provisions for cancellation. Under the terms of these agreements, the vendors provide a variety of services including conducting research, recruiting and enrolling patients, monitoring studies and data analysis. Payments under these agreements typically include fees for services and reimbursement of expenses. The timing of payments due under these agreements is estimated based on current study progress. As of June 30, 2015, we have clinical research study obligations of $9.2 million ($5.2 million of which are expected to be complete within a year). Should the timing of the clinical trials change, the timing of the payment of these obligations would also change.
We have entered into several lease agreements for our headquarters office location as well as international office locations. As of June 30, 2015, we have remaining lease obligations of $5.2 million ($2.2 million of which are expected to be completed within a year).
We have amended a supply agreement that contains a minimum purchase requirement. Pursuant to the amendment, as of June 30, 2015, we have a minimum purchase obligation of $1 million, all of which is expected to be completed within a year.
We are subject to various claims and contingencies related to legal proceedings. Due to their nature, such legal proceedings involve inherent uncertainties including, but not limited to, court rulings, negotiations between affected parties and governmental actions. Management assesses the probability of loss for such contingencies and accrues a liability and/or discloses the relevant circumstances, as appropriate. Management believes that any liability to us that may arise as a result of currently pending legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations as a whole.
See Note 4 for a discussion of our commitments and contingencies related to our transactions with Olympus.
10. | Fair Value Measurements |
Fair value measurements are market-based measurements, not entity-specific measurements. Therefore, fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. We follow a three-level hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values. The basis for fair value measurements for each level within the hierarchy is described below:
● Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
● Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
● Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable in active markets.
The following table provides a summary of the recognized assets and liabilities that we measure at fair value on a recurring basis:

We use quoted market prices to determine the fair value of our cash equivalents, which consist of money market funds that are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Warrants with exercise price reset features (down-round protection) are accounted for as liabilities, with changes in the fair value included in net income (loss) for the respective periods. Because some of the inputs to our valuation model are either not observable or are not derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means, the warrant liability is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
Our stock price can be volatile and there could be material fluctuations in the value of warrants in future periods.
Warrant Liability
In connection with the October 2014 Securities Purchase Agreement the Company issued common stock purchase warrants to certain institutional investors. Each warrant has an exercise price of $0.5771 per share, is exercisable six months after the date of issuance and expires five years from the date on which it is initially exercisable. The initial fair value of the liability associated with these warrants was $10.0 million. The fair value of the October warrants was $7.5 million as of June 30, 2015 and $9.8 million as of December 31, 2014.
In May 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell up to $25 million of units, with each unit consisting of one share of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of its common stock, in a registered direct offering. The Securities Purchase Agreement contemplates two closings, the first of which occurred on May 8, 2015, the second of which will occur upon satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, receipt of required stockholder approval. Each warrant issued at the initial closing has an initial exercise price of $1.02 per share, will be exercisable six months and one day after the date of issuance and expires five years from the date it becomes exercisable. The initial fair value of the liability associated with these warrants was $14.3 million, and the fair value decreased to $10.7 million as of June 30, 2015.
All future changes in the fair value of the warrants will be recognized in our consolidated statements of operations until they are either exercised or expire in 2020. The warrants are not traded in an active securities market, and as such the estimated the fair value as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was determined by using an option pricing model (Monte Carlo) with the following assumptions:

Expected volatility is based on both historical and implied volatility. Historical volatility was computed using daily pricing observations for recent periods that correspond to the expected term of the warrants while implied volatility was computed using publicly traded options of Cytori as well as Cytori’s peer companies. We believe this method produces an estimate that is representative of our expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants. We currently have no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. The expected life is based on the remaining contractual term of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is the U.S. Treasury bond rate as of the valuation date. The fair value of these warrants also incorporates our assumptions about future equity issuances and their impact to the down-round protection feature.
Fluctuations in the fair value of the warrants are impacted by unobservable inputs, most significantly the assumption with regards to future equity issuances and its impact to the down-round protection feature. Significant increases (decreases) in this input in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.
The following table summarizes the change in our Level 3 warrant liability value:

The main drivers for the change in the fair value of warrants at June 30, 2015, were issuance of new warrants, exercise of issued warrants and changes in our stock price, as compared to the stock price at December 31, 2014.
11. | Fair Value |
Financial Instruments
We disclose fair value information about all financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. The disclosures of estimated fair value of financial instruments at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
We utilize quoted market prices to estimate the fair value of our fixed rate debt, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, we calculate the fair value of our fixed rate debt based on a currently available market rate assuming the loans are outstanding through maturity and considering the collateral. In determining the current market rate for fixed rate debt, a market spread is added to the quoted yields on federal government treasury securities with similar terms to the debt.
At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the aggregate fair value and the carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt were as follows:

Carrying value is net of debt discount of $2.7 million and $1.5 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
The fair value of debt is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as some of the inputs to our valuation model are either not observable quoted prices or are not derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
12. | Stockholders’ Equity |
Preferred Stock
We have authorized 5 million shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock. Our Board of Directors is authorized to designate the terms and conditions of any preferred stock we issue without further action by the common stockholders. There were 13,500 shares of Series A 3.6% Convertible Preferred Stock issued at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and 0 and 5,311 shares outstanding as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
In October 2014, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors pursuant to which the Company sold a total of 13,500 units for a purchase price of $1,000 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of the Company’s Series A 3.6% Convertible Preferred Stock, which are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock with a conversion price of $0.52, and warrants to purchase up to a number of shares of common stock equal to 100% of the conversion shares under the shares of preferred stock, in a registered direct offering. The preferred stock and the warrants were immediately separable and were issued separately. As of June 30, 2015, all remaining outstanding Series A 3.6% Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into shares of common stock.
We recorded a dividend of $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, related to a beneficial conversion feature included in the issuance of our Series A 3.6% Convertible Preferred Stock. The fair value of the common stock into which the Series A 3.6% Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible on the date of issuance exceeded the proceeds allocated to the preferred stock, resulting in the beneficial conversion feature that we recognized as a dividend to the preferred shareholders and, accordingly, an adjustment to net loss to arrive at net loss allocable to common shareholders. Certain shares of Series A 3.6% Convertible Preferred Stock were not convertible until shareholder approval, which occurred in January 2015. As a result, additional dividends for the beneficial conversion feature of $0.7 million were recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2015.
In connection with the 3.6% Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding at December 31, 2014, we declared a cash dividend of $0.07 million. The cash dividend was paid in January 2015.
Common Stock
In May 2014, the Company entered into a sales agreement with Cowen and Company, LLC, relating to shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share. Pursuant to this agreement, through April 30, 2015, Cowen sold a total of 5.8 million shares of our common stock, raising approximately $7.2 million in net proceeds (after deductions for sales agent commissions and discounts and other offering costs), through an “at the market offering.”
In September 2014, the Company and 13 holders of warrants dated June 4, 2014 to purchase a total of 4 million shares of the Company’s common stock agreed to amend the warrants in order to reduce the exercise price from $3.00 per share to $1.00 per share and change the expiration date from June 4, 2019 to September 10, 2014. The Company received proceeds of approximately $4 million from the exercise of the warrants. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the amendment, upon each holder’s exercise of all shares for cash prior to the amended expiration date, the Company issued additional warrants for the same number of common shares to the holders. The additional warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per share, and are exercisable on the date that is six months and one day from the date of issuance and expire five years from the date of issuance. For those investors participating in the October 2014 issuance of Series A 3.6% Convertible Preferred Stock, we agreed to reduce the exercise price of 3.4 million warrants from $2.00 per share to $0.5771 per share, conditioned upon shareholder approval which was obtained in January 2015. As of June 30, 2015, all 3.4 million warrants had been exercised, some via cash and others on a cashless basis resulting in the issuance of an aggregate of 1.8 million shares of Common Stock, and receipt by the Company of $0.1 million in net proceeds.
In October 2014 the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors pursuant to which it issued common stock purchase warrants to the institutional investors. Each warrant has an exercise price of $0.5771 per share, is exercisable six months after the date of issuance and expires five years from the date on which it is initially exercisable. As of June 30, 2015, 8.5 million of the October 2014 warrants have been exercised for cash at $0.5771 per share for net proceeds of $4.9 million and 17.5 million October 2014 warrants remain outstanding.
In May 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell up to $25 million of units, with each unit consisting of one share of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of its common stock, in a registered direct offering. The purchase and sale of the units is expected to take place in two separate closings. At the initial closing, which took place on May 8, 2015, the Company received approximately $17.7 million in net proceeds from the sale of units. The purchase price for each unit sold at the initial closing was $0.77. Each warrant issued as part of the units at the initial closing has an initial exercise price of $1.02 per share, will be exercisable six months and one day after the date of issuance and expires five years from the date it becomes exercisable. The second closing of the purchase and sale of the units is subject to certain conditions, including, without limitation, shareholder vote, which is anticipated to take place at the Company’s annual stockholder meeting in August 2015. If the Company satisfies these conditions, the second closing will occur within ten days after satisfaction (or waiver) of these conditions.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains certain statements that may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of U.S. securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or developments that we intend, expect, project, believe or anticipate and similar expressions or future conditional verbs such as will, should, would, could or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Such statements are based upon certain assumptions and assessments made by our management in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe to be appropriate.
These statements include, without limitation, statements about our anticipated expenditures, including those related to clinical research studies and general and administrative expenses; the potential size of the market for our products, future development and/or expansion of our products and therapies in our markets, our ability to generate product revenues or effectively manage our gross profit margins; our ability to obtain regulatory clearance; expectations as to our future performance; the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this report, including our potential need for additional financing and the availability thereof; our ability to continue as a going concern; our ability to repay or refinance some or all of our outstanding indebtedness and our ability to raise capital in the future; and the potential enhancement of our cash position through development, marketing, and licensing arrangements. Our actual results will likely differ, perhaps materially, from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including: our need and ability to raise additional cash, our joint ventures, risks associated with laws or regulatory requirements applicable to us, market conditions, product performance, potential litigation, and competition within the regenerative medicine field, to name a few. The forward-looking statements included in this report are subject to a number of additional material risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the risks described under the “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I below, which we encourage you to read carefully.

Overview
We develop cellular therapeutics uniquely formulated and optimized for specific diseases and medical conditions. Our lead therapeutics are currently targeted for impaired hand function in scleroderma, osteoarthritis of the knee, stress urinary incontinence, and deep thermal burns combined with radiation exposure.
Our cellular therapeutics are collectively known by the trademarked name, Cytori Cell TherapyTM, and consist of a heterogeneous population of specialized cells including stem cells that are involved in response to injury, repair and healing. These cells are extracted from an adult patient’s own adipose (fat) tissue using our fully automated, enzymatic, sterile Celution® System devices and consumable sets at the place where the patient is receiving their care (i.e. there is no off-site processing or manufacturing). Cytori Cell Therapy can either be administered to the patient the same day or banked for future use. An independent published study has demonstrated that our proprietary process results in higher nucleated cell viability, less residual enzyme activity, less processing time, and improved economics in terms of cell progenitor output compared to other semi-automated and automated processes available.
Our goal is to bring Cytori Cell Therapy to market first for the treatment of impaired hand function in scleroderma and osteoarthritis of the knee, through Cytori-sponsored clinical development efforts. We received Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in late 2014 and in early 2015 initiated the osteoarthritis study. Enrollment in the osteoarthritis study was completed in June 2015. The first sites for the scleroderma study were initiated towards the end of July 2015. In addition, we are developing a treatment for thermal burns combined with radiation injury under a contract from the Biomedical Advanced Research Development Authority (BARDA), a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. We are also exploring other development opportunities in a variety of other conditions.
In addition to our targeted therapeutic development, we have continued to commercialize the Celution® System under select medical device approvals, clearances and registrations to research customers developing new therapeutic applications for Cytori Cell Therapy in Europe, Japan, and other regions. The sale of systems, consumables and ancillary products in advance of specific regulatory claims and reimbursement contributes a margin that partially offset our operating expenses and will continue to play a role in fostering familiarity within the medical community with our technology. These sales have also facilitated the discovery of new applications for Cytori Cell Therapy by customers conducting investigator-initiated and funded research.
Development Pipeline
The primary therapeutic areas currently in the development pipeline are scleroderma, orthopedics, stress urinary incontinence, and the treatment of thermal burns.
Scleroderma
In January 2015, the FDA granted unrestricted IDE approval for a pivotal clinical trial, named the “STAR” trial, to evaluate Cytori Cell Therapy as a potential treatment for impaired hand function in scleroderma, a rare autoimmune disease affecting approximately 50,000 patients in the U.S. The STAR trial is a 48-week, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled pivotal clinical trial of 80 patients in the U.S. The trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of a single administration of Cytori Cell Therapy (ECCS-50) in scleroderma patients affecting the hands and fingers. The STAR trial plans to use the Cochin Hand Function Scale (CHFS), a validated measure of hand function, as the primary endpoint measured at six months after a single administration of ECCS-50 or placebo. Patients in the placebo group will be eligible for crossover to the active arm of the trial after all patients have completed 48 weeks of follow up. In February 2015, the FDA approved our request to increase the number of investigational sites from 12 to up to 20. The increased number of sites is anticipated to broaden the geographic coverage of the trial and facilitate trial enrollment. The first sites for the scleroderma study were initiated towards the end of July 2015.
The STAR trial is predicated on a completed investigator-initiated pilot phase I/II trial performed in France termed SCLERADEC-I. The trial received partial support from Cytori. The results were published in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases in May 2014 and demonstrate approximately a 50 percent improvement at six months across four important and validated endpoints used to assess the clinical status in patients with scleroderma with impaired hand function. Patients perceived their health status to be improved as shown by a 45.2% and 42.4% decrease of the Scleroderma Health Assessment Questionnaire (SHAQ) at month 2 (p=0•001) and at month 6 (p=0•001) respectively. A 47% and 56% decrease of the CHFS at month 2 and month 6 in comparison to baseline was observed (p<0•001 for both). Grip strength increased at month 6 with a mean improvement of +4.8±6.4 kg for the dominant hand (p=0.033) and +4.0±3.5 kg for the non-dominant hand (p=0.002). Similarly, an increase in pinch strength at month 6 was noted with a mean improvement of +1.0±1.1 kg for the dominant hand (p=0.009) and +0.8±1.2 kg for the non-dominant hand (p=0.050). Among subjects having at least one digital ulcer (DU) at inclusion, total number of DU decreased, from 15 DUs at baseline, 10 at month 2 and 7 at month 6. The average reduction of the Raynaud’s Condition Score from baseline was 53.7% at month 2 (p<0.001) and 67.5% at month 6 (p<0.001). Hand pain showed a significant decrease of 63.6% at month 2 (p=0.001) and 70% at month 6 (p<0.001). A preliminary assessment for 12 month follow-up data has been reviewed by Cytori, and Cytori management believes such data reflects no reports of adverse events or safety concerns, average values for CHFS, RCS, and SHAQ score that are statistically consistent with those at the 6 month follow up visit and, while the average hand pain at 12 months was lower than that at baseline (reflecting overall symptom improvement over baseline), there was an approximately 50% reduction in the average therapeutic benefit on hand pain from six to twelve months.
In 2014, Dr.’s Guy Magalon and Brigette Granel from the Assistance Publique des Hôpitaux de Marseille submitted a study for review for a follow-up pivotal/phase III randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial in France, to be co-sponsored by Cytori, called SCLERADEC II. Patients will be followed for 6 months post-procedure. The trial was approved by the French government in April 2015. The study will be initiated in the fourth quarter of 2015.
Scleroderma is a chronic autoimmune disorder associated with fibrosis of the skin, destructive changes in blood vessels and multiple organ systems as the result of a generalized overproduction of collagen. Scleroderma affects women four times more frequently than men and is typically detected between the ages of 30 and 50. More than 90 percent of scleroderma patients have hand involvement that is typically progressive and can result in chronic pain, blood flow changes and severe dysfunction. The limited available treatments for scleroderma may provide some benefit but do little to modify disease progression or substantially improve symptoms. Treatment options are directed at protecting the hands from injury and detrimental environmental conditions as well as the use of vasodilators. When the disease is advanced, immunosuppressive and other medications may be used but are often accompanied by intolerable side effects.
Osteoarthritis
In the later part of 2014, we received approval by the FDA to begin a U.S. IDE pilot (phase IIa/b) trial of Cytori Cell Therapy in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. The trial, called ACT-OA, is a 90 patient, randomized, double-blind, placebo control study involving two dose escalations of Cytori Cell Therapy, a low dose and a high dose, and will be conducted over 48 weeks. The randomization is 1:1:1 between the control, low and high dose groups. Enrollment on this trial began in February 2015 and was completed in June 2015.
Osteoarthritis is a disease of the entire joint involving the cartilage, joint lining, ligaments, and underlying bone. The breakdown of tissue leads to pain, joint stiffness and reduced function. It is the most common form of arthritis and affects an estimated 13.9% of US adults over the age of 25, and 33.6% of adults over the age of 65. Current treatments include physical therapy, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, viscosupplement injections, and total knee replacement. A substantial medical need exists as present medications have limited efficacy and joint replacement is a relatively definitive treatment for those with the most advanced disease.
Stress Urinary Incontinence
Another therapeutic target under evaluation by us is stress urinary incontinence in men following surgical removal of the prostate gland, which is based on positive data reported in a peer reviewed journal resulting from the use of adipose-derived regenerative cells processed by our Celution System. The ADRESU trial is a 45 patient, open-label, multi-center, and single arm trial that has recently been approved by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) and is being led by both Momokazu Gotoh, MD, Ph.D., Professor and Chairman of the Department of Urology and Tokunori Yamamoto, MD, Ph.D., Associate Professor Department of Urology at Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine. The goal of this investigator-initiated trial will be to gain product approval for Cytori Cell Therapy technology for this indication. This clinical trial is primarily sponsored and funded by the Japanese Government.
Cutaneous and Soft Tissue Thermal and Radiation Injuries
Cytori Cell Therapy is also being developed for the treatment of thermal burns combined with radiation injury. In the third quarter of 2012, we were awarded a contract to develop a new countermeasure for thermal burns valued at up to $106 million with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Service’s Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA). The initial base period included $4.7 million over two years and covered preclinical research and continued development of Cytori’s Celution® System to improve cell processing. The additional contract options, if fully executed, could cover our clinical development through FDA approval under a device-based pre-market approval application (PMA) regulatory pathway.
The cost-plus-fixed-fee contract is valued at up to $106 million, with a guaranteed two-year base period of approximately $4.7 million. We submitted reports to BARDA in late 2013 detailing the completion of the objectives in the initial contract. An In-Process Review Meeting in the first half of 2014 confirmed completion of the proof of concept phase.
In August and December, 2014, BARDA awarded Cytori contract options of $14 million. The options allow for continuation of research, regulatory, clinical, and other activities required for approval and completion of a pilot clinical trial using Cytori Cell Therapy for the treatment of thermal burns combined with radiation injury. The award for conducting the pilot trial, approximately $8 million, would follow FDA approval of the trial protocol and associated documentation. Once the data from pilot trial is analyzed, the final phase would include research, regulatory, and clinical activities necessary to achieve regulatory clearances to optimize a treatment for combined injury involving thermal burn and radiation exposure. A pivotal clinical trial of the use of the Cytori Cell Therapy for thermal burn injury would be the primary basis of an FDA approval. The total award is intended to support all clinical, preclinical, regulatory, and technology development activities needed to complete the FDA approval process for use in thermal burn injury under a device-based PMA regulatory pathway.
Other Clinical Indications
Heart failure due to ischemic heart disease does not represent a clinical target at this time and the Company intends to minimize expenses related to its initiatives in this area. The ATHENA and ATHENA II trial programs, which sought to evaluate the safety and feasibility of Cytori Cell Therapy in patients with heart failure due to ischemic heart disease, were truncated and we intend to use the data from these trial programs for regulatory support for our other indications and also to publish in peer reviewed forums.
Recent Developments
Regulatory Clearance
In April 2015, one of our exclusive licensees, Lorem Vascular Pty. Ltd, was granted regulatory clearance for the Cytori Celution® System by the State Food and Drug Administration of the People’s Republic of China (CFDA). This regulatory clearance officially makes our Celution System available in the largest healthcare market in the world and triggers a 2015 product purchase order for the Company from Lorem Vascular.
Orphan Designation
In April 2015, the European Commission, acting on the positive recommendation from the European Medicines Agency Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products, has designated our ECCS-50 cellular therapeutic as an orphan medicinal product for the treatment of scleroderma. This designation marks the first autologous adipose derived cell therapy for scleroderma granted orphan status in the European Union.

We experienced an increase in product revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same periods in 2014, due principally to the partial fulfillment of Lorem Vascular’s opening purchase order upon CFDA’s clearance during the second quarter.
The future: We expect to continue to generate product revenues from the sale of Celution® Systems, related consumables and StemSource® Cell Banks. We will sell these products to a diverse group of researchers and clinicians in EMEA, Japan, Asia Pacific, and Americas, who may apply the products towards reconstructive surgery, soft tissue repair, research, aesthetics, and cell and tissue banking as approved in each country. Additionally, as a result of Class I Device Clearance for Celution® and a number of our other products in Japan and regulatory clearance from the CFDA, we anticipate selling these products to researchers at academic hospitals seeking to perform investigator-initiated and funded studies using Cytori’s Cell Therapy.
Cost of product revenues
Cost of product revenues relate primarily to Celution® System products and StemSource® Cell Banks and includes material, manufacturing labor, and overhead costs. The following table summarizes the components of our cost of revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:

Fluctuation in this percentage is to be expected due to the product mix, distributor and direct sales mix, and allocation of overhead.
The future. We expect to continue to see variation in our gross profit margin as the product mix, distributor and direct sales mix and geographic mix comprising revenues fluctuate.
Development revenues
Under our government contract with BARDA, we recognized a total of $1.9 million and $3.3 million in revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively which included allowable fees as well as cost reimbursements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, we incurred $1.7 million and $3.1 million in qualified expenditures, respectively. We recognized a total of $0.4 million and $0.8 million in revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively which also included allowable fees as well as cost reimbursements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred $0.3 million and $0.7 million in qualified expenditures, respectively. The increase in revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014 is primarily due to increased research and development activities aligned with the commencement of the new contract option awarded.
The future: In August 2014, BARDA exercised Option 1 of the contract, as amended in December 2014, for us to perform research, regulatory, clinical and other tasks required for initiation of a pilot clinical trial of the Cytori Cell Therapy (DCCT-10) in thermal burn injury, amendments to the Statement of Work, and reorganization of the contract options for a total fixed fee of up to $14 million. We expect approximately half of the work associated with Option 1, as amended, to be completed by the end of 2015.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses include costs associated with the design, development, testing and enhancement of our products, regulatory fees, the purchase of laboratory supplies, pre-clinical studies and clinical studies.

Research and development expenses relate to the development of a technology platform that involves using adipose tissue as a source of autologous regenerative cells for therapeutic applications as well as the continued development efforts related to our Celution® System.
The increase in research and development expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same periods in 2014 is due to increases in clinical study expense of $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively and an increase in research supplies expense of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively both increases were primarily driven by faster than anticipated enrollment of our ACT-OA clinical trial. These increases were offset by a decrease in salary and related benefits expense (excluding share-based compensation) of $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively and decrease in consulting expenses of $0.3 million and $0.4 million respectively.
The future: We expect research and development expenditures to stay consistent at current levels as we conduct two clinical trials in 2015; STAR, a trial for treatment of impaired hand function in scleroderma, and ACT-OA, a trial for the potential treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee.
Sales and marketing expenses

The decrease in general and administrative expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014 is mainly attributed to a decrease in salary and related benefits expense of $0.7 million and $1.1 million (excluding share-based compensation), respectively, due to reduction in headcount, a decrease in professional services of $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, consistent with our cost curtailment efforts implemented in 2014; and a decrease in non-cash accounts receivable charges of $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
The future: We expect general and administrative expenditures to remain consistent at current levels throughout 2015.
Share-based compensation expenses
Share-based compensation expenses include charges related to options and restricted stock awards issued to employees, directors and non-employees along with charges related to the employee stock purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). We measure stock-based compensation expense based on the grant-date fair value of any awards granted to our employees. Such expense is recognized over the period of time that employees provide service to us and earn all rights to the awards.

The decrease in share-based compensation expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014 is primarily related to a lower annual grant caused by reductions in headcount and due to the decline in the stock price during 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014, and its corresponding impact into the share-based compensation.
The future. We expect to continue to grant options and stock awards (which will result in an expense) to our employees, directors, and, as appropriate, to non-employee service providers. In addition, previously-granted options will continue to vest in accordance with their original terms. As of June 30, 2015, the total compensation cost related to non-vested stock options and stock awards not yet recognized for all our plans is approximately $3.4 million which is expected to be recognized as a result of vesting under service conditions over a weighted average period of 1.61 years.

In connection with the Loan and Security Agreement entered into on May 29, 2015 (the “Loan Agreement”) with Oxford Finance LLC (the “Lender”), a loss on debt extinguishment was recorded that relates to the payoff of the prior loan obligation. See Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further information.

●
|
Interest expense decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014, due to paydown and refinance of principal loan balance.
|
●
|
The changes in other income (expense) during the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014 resulted primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
|
The future: We expect interest expense in 2015 to decrease as we refinanced and decreased the principal of our outstanding Term Loan.

We have net income of $4.5 million and net loss of $17.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively and incurred net losses of $11.8 million and $22.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. We have an accumulated deficit of $356 million as of June 30, 2015. Additionally, we have used net cash of $9.8 million and $18.1 million to fund our operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. To date, these operating losses have been funded primarily from outside sources of invested capital and gross profits. As of June 30, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $23.8 million. Through April 30, 2015, we sold a total of 5.8 million shares of our common stock, raising approximately $7.2 million in net proceeds through an ATM facility, 8.5 million of the October 2014 warrants have been exercised at $0.5771 per share for net proceeds of $4.9 million and in May 2015, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell up to $25 million of units, with each unit consisting of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of its common stock. The offering will have two separate closings, the first closing took place on May 8, 2015, and we received $17.7 million in net proceeds. The second closing is subject to certain conditions, including, without limitation, shareholder vote, which is anticipated to take place in August 2015. Giving effect to these issuances we have received approximately $30 million in proceeds from the sale of securities for the six months ended June 30, 2015.
Pursuant to the recently announced securities transaction and related equity issuance, as well as anticipated gross profits and potential outside sources of capital, we believe we have sufficient cash to fund operations through at least the next 12 months. The Company continues to seek additional capital through product revenues, strategic transactions, including extension opportunities under the awarded U.S. Department of Health and Human Service’s Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (“BARDA”) contract, and from other financing alternatives.
See Note 12 above for a discussion on our May 2015 Securities Purchase Agreement.

Operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities, for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $9.8 million, approximately $8.3 million lower than the same period in 2014, primarily due to the $6.2 million decrease in operating net loss, adjusted for non-cash items, such as fair value of warrants, and our overall working capital improvement of approximately $2.1 million due primarily to decreased payments related to inventories, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 resulted from cash outflows for payment for purchases of property and equipment of $0.5 million. The cash outflow was $0.6 million lower than the same period in 2014 due to the culmination of our license fee obligation and due to lower expenditures related to our intellectual property.
Financing Activities
The net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was approximately $3.0 million higher than the same period it 2014 and it was related primarily to a sale of common stock in connection with a Securities Purchase Agreement to sell up to $25 million of units, of which we received net proceeds of $17.7 million. We also received net proceeds of $7.2 million for the sale of 5.3 million shares through an “at the market offering” and proceeds of $4.9 million through warrant exercises. These proceeds were offset by cash outflows for the debt refinance and its related final payment fees, issuance costs and other loan fees as well as payments towards our Joint Venture purchase obligation.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and that affect our recognition and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
While our estimates are based on assumptions we consider reasonable at the time they were made, our actual results may differ from our estimates, perhaps significantly. If results differ materially from our estimates, we will make adjustments to our financial statements prospectively as we become aware of the necessity for an adjustment.
We believe it is important for you to understand our most critical accounting policies. Our critical accounting policies and estimates remain consistent with those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, or other standard setting bodies that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. The Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations upon adoption.
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest. The standard requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2015-03 on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new standard is based on the principle that revenue should be recognized 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. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 and allows for a full retrospective or a modified retrospective adoption approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2015-11, simplifying the measurement of Inventory. The standard requires companies to measure inventory (excluding inventory measured using LIFO and retail inventory methods) at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2015-11 on its consolidated financial statements.
We are exposed to market risk related to fluctuations in interest rates and in foreign currency exchange rates. There have been no material changes in our market risks during the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
Interest Rate Exposure
We are not subject to market risk due to fluctuations in interest rates on our long-term obligations as they bear a fixed rate of interest. Our exposure relates primarily to short-term investments, including funds classified as cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2015, all excess funds were invested in money market funds and other highly liquid investments, therefore our interest rate exposure is not considered to be material.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Exposure
Our exposure to market risk due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relates primarily to our activities in Europe and Japan. Transaction gains or losses resulting from cash balances and revenues have not been significant in the past and we are not currently engaged in any hedging activity in the Euro, the Yen or other currencies. Based on our cash balances and revenues derived from markets other than the United States for the three months ended June 30, 2015, a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the Euro or Yen against the U.S. dollar would not result in a material foreign currency exchange loss. Consequently, we do not expect that reductions in the value of such sales denominated in foreign currencies resulting from even a sudden or significant fluctuation in foreign exchange rates would have a direct material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indirect effect of fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations may affect international demand for our products. In addition, interest rate fluctuations may affect our customers’ buying patterns. Furthermore, interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations may broadly influence the United States and foreign economies resulting in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
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 or furnished pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’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 for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, 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 our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
From time to time, we have been involved in routine litigation incidental to the conduct of our business. As of June 30, 2015, we were not a party to any material legal proceeding.
Our business is subject to various risks, including those described in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, , as supplemented and updated by the risk factors included in Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2015, which we strongly encourage you to review with all other information contained or incorporated by reference in this report before you decide to invest in our common stock.
