We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

cautionary statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly in Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors," that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments that we may make.
You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the documents that we reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company's annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. These interim consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for fair statement of the Company's financial position as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the Company's audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017, or for any other future annual or interim period. The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Investments in Preferred Stock
The Company holds preferred stock in certain of its collaborators which may be converted to common stock as described in Note 7. The Company elected the fair value option to account for its investments in preferred stock whereby the value of preferred stock is adjusted to fair value as of each reporting date and unrealized gains and losses are reported in the consolidated statement of operations. These investments are subject to fluctuation in the future due to, among other things, the likelihood and timing of conversion of the preferred stock into common stock, the volatility of each collaborator's common stock, and changes in general economic and financial conditions of the collaborators. The investments are classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheet since the Company does not intend to sell the investments nor expect them to be converted into shares of common stock within one year.
Until such time as the Company converts the preferred stock into common stock, the Company is entitled to monthly dividends and records dividend income as described in Note 7.
Equity Method Investments
The Company accounts for its investments in each of its joint ventures and for its investments in start-up entities backed by the Harvest Intrexon Enterprise Fund I, LP ("Harvest"), a related party, (Note 17) using the equity method of accounting based upon relative ownership interest. The Company's investments in these entities are included in investments in affiliates in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company accounts for its investment in Oragenics, Inc. ("Oragenics"), one of its collaborators, using the fair value option.
The fair value of the Company's investment in Oragenics was $4,807$5,634 and $7,244 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and is included as equity securities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company's ownership of Oragenics was 29.4% and 29.5% as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Unrealized depreciationappreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of these securities was $1,096$827 and $4,797$(455) for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and was $2,437$(1,610) and $11,142$(11,597) for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. See Note 19 for additional discussion regarding Oragenics.
Summarized financial data as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, for the Company's equity method investments are shown in the following tables.

Variable Interest Entities
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company determined that certain of its collaborators and joint ventures as well as Harvest were variable interest entities ("VIE" or "VIEs"). The Company was not the primary beneficiary for these entities since it did not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIEs. The Company's aggregate investment balances of these VIEs as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $185,555$187,555 and $159,115, respectively, which represents the Company's maximum risk of loss related to the identified VIEs.
Self-insurance Reserves
Effective January 1, 2017, the Company commenced a self-insurance program for a significant portion of its employee health benefit programs. The Company maintains stop-loss coverage with third party insurers to limit its individual claims and total exposure under those programs. The Company estimates its accrued liability for the ultimate costs to close known claims, including claims incurred but not yet reported to the Company, as of the balance sheet date. The Company's recorded estimated liability for self-insurance is based on the insurance company's incurred loss estimates and management's judgment, including assumptions and factors related to the frequency and severity of claims and the Company's claims development history.
The assessment of self-insurance reserves is a highly subjective process that requires judgments about future events. Self-insurance reserves are reviewed at least quarterly to determine the adequacy of the accruals and related financial statement disclosure. The ultimate settlement of self-insurance reserves may differ significantly from amounts the Company has accrued in its consolidated financial statements.
Segment Information
While the Company generates revenues from multiple sources, including collaboration agreements, licensing, and products and services associated with bovine reproduction, management is organized around a singular research and development focus to further the development of the Company's underlying synthetic biology technologies. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it operates in one segment. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had $16,499$19,335 and $13,265, respectively, of long-lived assets in foreign countries. The Company recognized revenues derived in foreign countries totaling $3,611$4,448 and $2,680$3,502 for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $7,325$11,773 and $5,176$8,678 for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business ("ASU 2017-01"). The provisions of ASU 2017-01 clarify the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The Company adopted this standard in the second quarter of 2017, and the implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-17, Consolidation (Topic 810) - Interests Held through Related Parties That Are under Common Control ("ASU 2016-17"). The provisions of ASU 2016-17 amend the consolidation guidance on how a reporting entity that is the single decision maker of a VIE should treat indirect interests in the entity held through related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of that VIE. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017, and the implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2016-09"). The provisions of ASU 2016-09 simplify various aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017. Upon adoption in the first quarter of 2017, the Company elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur and recorded an opening

adjustment to additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit for previously unrecognized stock-based compensation costs due to estimating forfeitures on unvested shares totaling $1,461. The Company also recognized deferred tax assets of approximately $17,900 related to the excess tax benefits that previously arose directly from tax deductions related to equity compensation greater than stock-based compensation costs recognized in the consolidated financial statements and the cumulative adjustment for forfeitures. These deferred tax assets were fully offset by a valuation allowance (Note 13). The adoption was on a modified retrospective basis and had no impact on prior periods.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323) - Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting ("ASU 2016-07"). The provisions of ASU 2016-07 eliminate the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an adjustment must be made to the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017, and the implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330) - Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory ("ASU 2015-11"). The provisions of ASU 2015-11 provide guidance for simplifying the calculation for subsequent measurement of inventory measured using the first-in-first-out or average cost methods. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017, and the implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception ("ASU 2017-11"). The amendments in Part I of ASU 2017-11 change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity's own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity-classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share ("EPS") in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of ASU 2017-11 re-characterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the FASB codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. The guidance is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and is effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Scope of Modification Accounting ("ASU 2017-09"). The provisions of ASU 2017-09 provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. An entity should account for the effects of a modification unless (a) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award, (b) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award and (c) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2018. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The CompanyAs this standard is currently evaluatingprospective in nature, the impact that the implementation of this standard will have onto the Company's consolidated financial statements.statements will depend on the nature of any future award modifications. The Company does not intend to early adopt this standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). The provisions of ASU 2017-04 simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill for

impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The guidance is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Restricted Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU 2016-18"). The provisions of ASU 2016-18 require amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the total beginning and ending balances for the periods presented on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2018. The implementation of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments ("ASU 2016-15"). The provisions of ASU 2016-15 address eight specific cash flow issues and how those certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows, and other Topics. The guidance is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). The provisions of ASU 2016-02 set out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for in a similar manner as under existing guidance for operating leases today. ASU 2016-02 supersedes the previous lease standard, Topic 840, Leases. The guidance is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10) - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("ASU 2016-01"). The provisions of ASU 2016-01 make targeted improvements to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information, including certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The guidance is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"). The FASB issued ASU 2014-09 to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes the most current revenue recognition guidance. This guidance was originally effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption was not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Deferral of the Effective Date, which deferred the effective date of the guidance in ASU 2014-09 by one year to December 15, 2017 for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after that date and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016, and is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2018. In 2016 and 2017, the FASB clarified the implementation guidance on principal versus agent, identifying performance obligations, licensing, narrow-scope improvements, practical expedients, and to expedite improvements to ASU 2014-09 by issuing ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Principal versus Agent Considerations, ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, and ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, and ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and ASU 2017-13, Revenue Recognition

(Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842). The Company is currently evaluatingcontinues to progress in the evaluation of its collaborations and licensing agreements and product and service revenue arrangements to determine the impact, if any, that the implementation of this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements as it relatesstatements. The Company has completed its review of collaboration and licensing agreements and product and service revenue arrangements and plans to finalize its analysis in the recognitionfourth quarter of upfront2017 to determine the impact, if any, this standard may have on its financial position, results of operations and milestone payments

that have been deferreddisclosures. Additionally, any revenue arrangements entered into subsequent to December 31, 2017 with financial or other significant terms which differ from the financial or other significant terms of the Company's existing revenue arrangements will be evaluated under the current revenue guidance, reimbursements for costs incurred by the Company for research and development services provided pursuant to collaborations, and royalties on sales of products arising from collaborations.this new standard.
3. Mergers and Acquisitions
GenVec Acquisition
In June 2017, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "GenVec Merger Agreement"), the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of GenVec, Inc. ("GenVec"), a clinical-stage company and pioneer in the development of AdenoVerse gene delivery technology. Pursuant to the GenVec Merger Agreement, the former shareholders of GenVec received an aggregate of 684,240 shares of the Company's common stock and have the right to receive contingent consideration equal to 50% of any milestone or royalty payments received under one of GenVec's collaboration agreements, provided such payments are received within three years after the closing of the transaction. The Company also assumed warrants held by certain former shareholders of GenVec. The results of GenVec's operations subsequent to the acquisition date have been included in the consolidated financial statements.
The fair value of the total consideration transferred was $17,582. The acquisition date fair value of each class of consideration transferred is presented below:
Common shares$15,616
Warrants1,381
Contingent consideration585
 $17,582

The fair value of the shares of the Company's common stock issued was based on the quoted closing price of the Company's common stock immediately prior to the closing of the acquisition. The fair value of the warrants assumed was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a probability weighted discounted cash flows model and is considered a freestanding financial instrument and is recorded at fair value each reporting period. The preliminary estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date is shown below:
Cash and cash equivalents$2,054
Short term investments542
Trade receivables75
Other receivables97
Prepaid expenses and other227
Property and equipment250
Intangible assets14,000

Other accrued expenses856
Other long term liabilities92
Deferred tax liabilities239
Total liabilities assumed4,571
Net assets acquired12,732
Goodwill4,850
Total consideration$17,582
The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date are considered preliminary and are subject to revision when the valuation of intangible assets is finalized. The acquired intangible assets include developed technology, the

fair value of which was determined using the multi-period excess earning method, which is a variation of the income approach that converts future cash flows to single discounted present value amounts. The intangible assets are being amortized over a useful life of eleven years. Goodwill, which is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes, represents the assembled workforce and the anticipated buyer-specific synergies arising from the combination of the Company's and GenVec's technology.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, the Company had incurred $510$519 of acquisition related costs, of which $260$9 and $498$507 is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017, respectively.

For more information on the Company's method for determining the fair value of its assets, see Note 2 – "Fair Value of Financial Instruments" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, all of the available-for-sale investments were due within one year based on their contractual maturities.
Changes in market interest rates and bond yields cause certain investments to fall below their cost basis, resulting in unrealized losses on investments. The unrealized losses of the Company's investments were primarily a result of unfavorable changes in interest rates subsequent to the initial purchase of these investments and have been in a loss position for less than 12 months.

are not significant as of September 30, 2017.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company did not consider any of its investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired. When evaluating its investments for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below its cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer, the Company's ability and intent to hold the security and whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the investment before recovery of its cost basis.
7. Investments in Preferred Stock
Investment in ZIOPHARM Preferred Stock
In June 2016, the Company received 100,000 shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Shares") of ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. ("ZIOPHARM"), a related party, with a per share stated value of $1,200, as consideration for amending their two previously existing ECC agreements. A summary of the terms of the Preferred Shares follows.
Conversion. The Preferred Shares shall automatically convert into shares of ZIOPHARM common stock upon the date the first approval in the United States of (i) a ZIOPHARM product, as defined in and developed under one of the ECC agreements, or (ii) a product, as defined and developed under the License and Collaboration Agreement with Ares Trading S.A., a subsidiary of the biopharmaceutical business of Merck KGaA, and ZIOPHARM, is publicly announced (the "Conversion Event Date"). The Preferred Shares shall convert into a number of shares of ZIOPHARM common stock equal to the stated value of such Preferred Share, divided by the greater of: (i) the volume weighted average closing price of ZIOPHARM's common stock over the twenty trading days ending on the Conversion Event Date or (ii) $1.00. The number of converted shares is subject to certain limitations defined in the amended and restated Certificate of Designation, Preferences, and Rights of Series 1 Preferred Stock (the "A&R Certificate of Designation").
Dividend Rights. The Company shall receive a monthly dividend, payable in additional Preferred Shares, equal to $12.00 per Preferred Share held per month divided by the stated value of the Preferred Shares, which is referred to as the PIK Dividend. For any Preferred Shares that are not converted on the Conversion Event Date, the rate of PIK Dividend on these unconverted Preferred Shares will automatically increase from $12.00 to $24.00 per Preferred Share per month.
Voting Rights. The Preferred Shares do not have any voting rights except for certain protective voting rights defined in the A&R Certificate of Designation.
Liquidation Rights. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of ZIOPHARM or a deemed liquidation event, as defined in the A&R Certificate of Designation, including a change of control or the sale, lease transfer, or exclusive license of all or substantially all of ZIOPHARM's assets, the holders of the Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive a portion of all funds to be distributed in proportion to the holders' proportionate share of ZIOPHARM's common stock on an as-converted to common stock basis (the "Series 1 Liquidation Amount"). For purposes of calculating the Series 1 Liquidation Amount, if such liquidation event occurs prior to the Conversion Event Date, each Preferred Share shall be deemed to be convertible into the number of shares of ZIOPHARM's common stock equal to (i) the stated value of each Preferred Share, divided by (ii) the volume weighted average price of ZIOPHARM's common stock for the twenty day period ending on the date of the public announcement of the liquidation event. In addition, ZIOPHARM may elect to redeem the Preferred Shares in connection with or following a deemed liquidation event at a price per share equal to the Series 1 Liquidation Amount.
The investment in ZIOPHARM preferred stock is categorized as Level 3 as there are significant unobservable inputs and the Preferred Shares are not traded on a public exchange. The fair value of the investment in ZIOPHARM preferred stock is estimated using a probability-weighted expected return ("PWERM") model. The key inputs used in the PWERM model are (i) estimating the future returns for conversion of the Preferred Shares for both product approval and a change in control of ZIOPHARM (the "conversion events") using market data of the change in value for guideline companies as a result of these conversion events; (ii) estimating the expected date and likelihood of each conversion event; and (iii) discounting these estimated future returns using a discount rate for the Preferred Shares considering industry debt issuances originated by public funds and venture capital rates of return. A significant change in unobservable inputs discussed above could result in a

significant impact on the fair value of the Company's investment in ZIOPHARM preferred stock. The fair value of the Company's investment in ZIOPHARM preferred stock, including additional Preferred Shares received as dividends, was $142,326$146,637 and $129,545 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017, the Company received 3,3133,414 shares and 6,5299,943 shares, respectively, of additional Preferred Shares and recognized $4,042$4,311 and $7,965,$12,276, respectively, of dividend income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company received 3,063 shares of additional Preferred Shares and recognized $3,676 of dividend income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Investment in Fibrocell Preferred Stock
In March 2017, Fibrocell Science, Inc. ("Fibrocell"), one of the Company's collaborators and a related party, sold Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Convertible Preferred Shares") convertible into shares of Fibrocell common stock and warrants to purchase shares of Fibrocell common stock to certain institutional and accredited investors, including the Company and affiliates of Third Security. The Company paid $1,161 in exchange for 1,161 Convertible Preferred Shares and warrants to acquire 498,843 shares of Fibrocell common stock, reflective of the 1-for-3 reverse stock split of Fibrocell's common stock effective March 10, 2017. The Convertible Preferred Shares are convertible at any time at the election of the Company and accrue dividends at 4% per annum, compounded quarterly, increasing the stated value of the shares. The investment in Fibrocell preferred stock is categorized as Level 3 as there are significant unobservable inputs and the Convertible Preferred Shares are not traded on a public exchange. The fair value of the investment in Fibrocell preferred stock is estimated using a conversion plus dividend approach utilizing the trading value of the underlying common stock and an estimated premium for the preferred stock dividend and other preferences. Market price volatility of Fibrocell's common stock and a significant change in the estimated preferred stock premium could result in a significant impact to the fair value of the investment in Fibrocell preferred stock. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, the fair value of the Company's investment in Fibrocell preferred stock totaled $2,416.$1,862. See Note 17 for additional discussion of the warrants.

The method used to estimate the fair value of the Level 1 assets in the tables above is based on observable market data as these equity securities are publicly-traded. The method used to estimate the fair value of the Level 2 short-term and long-term investments in the tables above is based on professional pricing sources for identical or comparable instruments, rather than direct observations of quoted prices in active markets. The method used to estimate the fair value of the Level 2 equity securities in the tables above is based on the quoted market price of the publicly-traded security, adjusted for a discount for lack of marketability. The methods used to estimate the fair value of the Level 3 assets are discussed in Note 7.
There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017.

The carrying values of the Company's long term debt approximates fair value due to the length of time to maturity and/or the existence of interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates. The Company's contingent consideration liabilities (Notes 3 and 4) are measured on a recurring basis and were $2,826$2,911 and $2,081 at JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. These fair value measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represented a Level 3 measurement. A significant change in unobservable inputs discussed above could result in a significant impact on the fair value of the Company's contingent consideration liabilities. The contingent consideration liabilities are remeasured to fair value at each reporting date until the contingencies are resolved, and those changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. The changes in the fair value of the Level 3 liabilities during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 were as follows:

AquaBounty has a royalty-based financing grant from the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, a Canadian government agency, to provide funding of a research and development project. The total amount available under the award was $2,212,$2,302, which AquaBounty claimed over a five year period. All amounts claimed by AquaBounty must be repaid in the form of a 10% royalty on any products commercialized out of this research and development project until fully paid. Because the timing of


commercialization is subject to additional regulatory considerations, the timing of repayment is uncertain. As of the date of the acquisition by Intrexon in March 2013, AquaBounty had claimed $1,952 of the available funds and this amount was recorded at its acquisition date fair value of $1,107. The Company accretes the difference of $845 between the face value of amounts drawn and the acquisition date fair value over the expected period of repayment. SinceSubsequent to the acquisition date, AquaBounty has claimed the remaining balance available under the grant, resulting in total long term debt of $2,012$2,108 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017.

13. Income Taxes
Tax provisions for interim periods are calculated using an estimate of actual taxable income or loss for the respective period, rather than estimating the Company's annual effective income tax rate, as the Company is currently unable to reliably estimate its income for the full year. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017, the Company had U.S. taxable income of


approximately $7,950$3,930 and $19,750,$23,680, respectively, for which $159$78 and $395,$473, respectively, in current income tax expense was recognized due to the alternative minimum tax. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017, the Company recognized $91$121 and $222,$343, respectively, of current foreign income tax benefit. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2016, the Company had U.S. taxable lossincome (loss) of approximately $7,780$8,334 and $17,680,$(9,346), respectively, for which no current income tax benefit was recognized. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2016, the Company recognized $120$110 and $213,$323, respectively, of current foreign income tax benefit. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017, the Company recorded deferred tax benefit of $881$775 and $1,519,$2,294, respectively. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2016, the Company recorded deferred tax benefit of $471$308 and $2,659,$2,967, respectively. The Company's net deferred tax assets, excluding certain deferred tax liabilities totaling $16,266,$15,868, are offset by a valuation allowance due to the Company's history of net losses combined with an inability to confirm recovery of the tax benefits of the Company's losses and other net deferred tax assets. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
At JuneAs of September 30, 2017, the Company has loss carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes of approximately $248,300$243,700 available to offset future taxable income, including approximately $13,400 obtained via theacquired in our acquisition of GenVec, and federal and state research and development tax credits of approximately $7,700,$7,800, prior to consideration of annual limitations that may be imposed under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. These carryforwards will begin to expire in 2022. TheAs of September 30, 2017, the Company's direct foreign subsidiaries have foreign loss carryforwards of approximately $137,000,$146,800, most of which do not expire.
14. Shareholders' Equity
Dividend to Shareholders
In January 2017, the Company distributed to its shareholders 1,776,557 shares of AquaBounty common stock valued at $22,385. The distribution constituted a dividend to shareholders of record as of January 9, 2017. In connection with the distribution and pursuant to the terms of the Company's equity incentive plans, the conversion terms of all outstanding options for shares of the Company's common stock as of January 9, 2017 were adjusted to reflect the value of the distribution with


respect to shares of the Company's common stock by decreasing the exercise prices and increasing the number outstanding options. This adjustment resulted in 46,766 additional outstanding options at a weighted average exercise price of $31.11.

Intrexon currently uses authorized and unissued shares to satisfy share award exercises.
In October 2015, the compensation committee and the independent members of Intrexon's board of directors approved a compensation arrangement whereby the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") would receive a monthly salary. Previously, the CEO did not receive compensation for his services as an employee of the Company other than through his participation in the Company's Annual Executive Incentive Plan which became effective January 1, 2015. Pursuant to the compensation agreement, the CEO receives a base salary of $200 per month payable in fully vested shares of Intrexon common stock with such shares subject to a three-year lock-up on resale. The monthly number of shares of common stock is calculated based on the closing price on the last trading day of each month and the shares are issued pursuant to the terms of a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement ("RSU Agreement") which was executed between Intrexon and the CEO pursuant to the terms of the


2013 Plan. The RSU Agreement became effective in November 2015, and had an initial term of 12 months. In October 2016, the independent members of Intrexon's board of directors, with the recommendation of the compensation committee of the board of directors, approved an extension of the RSU Agreement through December 31, 2016, and in December 2016 further approved an extension of the RSU Agreement to expire on March 31, 2017, both of which were on the same terms as the original RSU Agreement. In March 2017, the independent members of Intrexon's board of directors, with the recommendation of the compensation committee of the board of directors, approved a renewal of the RSU Agreement through March 31, 2018 on the same terms as the original RSU Agreement. The fair value of the shares issued as compensation for services is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and totaled $477$480 and $463 for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $948$1,428 and $934$1,397 for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
AquaBounty Stock Option Plans
In March 2016, AquaBounty's board of directors adopted the AquaBounty 2016 Equity Incentive Plan ("AquaBounty 2016 Plan") to replace the AquaBounty 2006 Equity Incentive Plan ("AquaBounty 2006 Plan"). The AquaBounty 2016 Plan provides for the issuance of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and awards of restricted and direct stock purchases to directors, officers, employees, and consultants of AquaBounty.  The AquaBounty 2016 Plan was approved by AquaBounty's shareholders at its annual meeting in April 2016.

Future rental income is expected to be $33$20 for 2017, $80 for 2018, and $67 for 2019.
Purchase Commitments
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, the Company had outstanding contractual purchase commitments of $8,236,$10,618, which primarily relate to amounts that will be paid in 2018 and 2019 upon delivery of commercial non-browning apple trees.

Contingencies
In March 2012, Trans Ova was named as a defendant in a licensing and patent infringement suit brought by XY, LLC ("XY") alleging that certain of Trans Ova's activities breached a 2004 licensing agreement and infringed on patents that XY allegedly owned. Trans Ova filed a number of counterclaims in the case. In Colorado District Court, the matter proceeded to a jury trial in January 2016. The jury determined that XY and Trans Ova had each breached the licensing agreement and that Trans Ova had infringed XY's patents. In April 2016, the court issued its post-trial order, awarding $528 in damages to Trans Ova and $6,066 in damages to XY. The order also provided Trans Ova with a compulsory license to XY's technology, subject to an ongoing royalty obligation. Both parties appealed the court's order, which appeal is pending before the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Since the inception of the 2004 agreement, Trans Ova has remitted payments to XY pursuant to the terms of that agreement and has recorded these payments in cost of services in the consolidated statements of operations for the respective periods. For the period from inception of the 2004 agreement through the court's April 2016 order, aggregate royalty and license payments were $3,170, of which $2,759 had not yet been deposited by XY. For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2016, the Company recorded litigation expense of $4,228, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations and represents the excess of the net damages awarded to XY, including prejudgment interest, over the liability previously recorded by Trans Ova for uncashed checks previously remitted to XY. In August 2016, Trans Ova deposited the net damages amount, including prejudgment interest, into the court's treasury, to be held until the appeals process is complete and final judgment amounts are determined. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, this amount is included in restricted cash on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. In December 2016, Trans Ova elected to void the outstanding checks discussed above, and these amounts have been reclassified to other accrued liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Depending on the outcome of an appeal decision, the damages awarded to either party could decrease, increase, or be eliminated. The appeal decision may also remand to the Colorado District Court all, or a portion, of the issues being appealed. In December 2016, XY filed a complaint for patent infringement and trade secret misappropriation against Trans Ova in the District Court of Waco, Texas. Since the claims in this 2016 complaint directly relate to the 2012 licensing dispute and patent issues, Trans Ova filed and was granted a motion for change of venue to Colorado District Court. Trans Ova also filed a motion to dismiss, which is now pending before the Colorado court. Trans Ova and the Company could elect to enter into a settlement agreement in order to avoid the further costs

and uncertainties of litigation, to modify the court-ordered license to XY's technologies, or to recover monetary damages stemming from Trans Ova's counterclaims for antitrust violations by XY and its parent company, Inguran.
In May 2016, two putative shareholder class action lawsuits, captioned Hoffman v. Intrexon Corporation et al. and Gibrall v. Intrexon Corporation et al., were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of purchasers of Intrexon's common stock between May 12, 2015 and April 20, 2016 (the "Class Period"). In July 2016, the court consolidated the lawsuits and appointed a lead plaintiff. The consolidated amended complaint names as defendants Intrexon and certain of Intrexon's current and former officers (the "Defendants"). It alleges, among other things, that the Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements during the Class Period with respect to the Company's business, operations, and prospects in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The plaintiffs' claims are based in part upon allegations in a report published in April 2016 on the Seeking Alpha financial blog. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, interest and an award of reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. The Defendants moved to dismiss the case. On February 24, 2017, the court granted the Company's motion to dismiss the lawsuit on the grounds that the plaintiff failed to state a claim, while granting the plaintiff leave to amend. The plaintiff subsequently notified the court that it would seek to appeal the court's ruling rather than amend its complaint. On April 26, 2017, the court entered final judgment in the case. Notice of appeal was filed by the plaintiff on May 26, 2017. The Company intendsOn October 26, 2017, the plaintiff filed a voluntary motion to continue to defenddismiss the lawsuit vigorously; however, there can be no assurance regardingcase, which the ultimate outcomecourt of this case.appeals granted on November 1, 2017.
In July 2016, a putative shareholder derivative action captioned Basile v. Kirk et al. was filed in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, against certain of the Company's directors, the Company's CEO, and Third Security, and naming the Company as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleges causes of action for breaches of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment relating to the entry by the Company into the Services Agreement with Third Security. The plaintiff seeks, among other things, damages in an unspecified amount, disgorgement of improper benefits, appropriate equitable relief, and an award of attorney fees and other costs and expenses. The complaint is substantially similar to two separate demands made by shareholders concerning the Services Agreement and Mr. Kirk's compensation. The board of directors of the Company appointed a Special Litigation Committee ("SLC") consisting of independent directors to investigate the claims and allegations made in the derivative action and in the two shareholder demands and to decide on behalf of the Company whether the claims and allegations should be pursued. The Basile case was stayed pending the report of the SLC. In November 2016, the SLC completed its review and evaluation and unanimously determined that the claims were without merit because the compensation arrangements were the result of an informed and disinterested decision-making process and were fair to the Company, and that prosecution of the asserted claims was not in the best interest of Intrexon or its shareholders. Based upon the determination of the SLC, on February 24, 2017, the Company moved to dismiss the court action pursuant to Virginia statute. On June 8, 2017,

the court granted the Company's motion to dismiss while granting the plaintiff leave to amend. On August 30, 2017, the plaintiff filed a consent motion for leave to amend along with the amended shareholder derivative complaint. The Company moved to dismiss the amended complaint on October 6, 2017. The Company intends to continue to defend the lawsuit vigorously. There can be no assurance, however, regarding the ultimate outcome of the case.
In addition to the shareholder demands above, in June and July 2016, two shareholders made separate demands under Virginia law demanding that the Company file suit against certain of its current officers and directors for alleged breaches of fiduciary duty and other claims. The demands were based upon and asserted the allegations previously published in April 2016 in the Seeking Alpha financial blog. In July 2016, the Company's board of directors authorized the SLC to expand its review to include all such allegations. In February 2017, the SLC completed its review and evaluation and unanimously determined that there was no basis for any of the allegations, that the Company's officers and directors did not breach their fiduciary duties or any other applicable law, and that prosecution of the asserted claims was not in the best interest of Intrexon or its shareholders. Following the SLC's determination, in March 2017, one of the putative shareholders filed a derivative complaint captioned Luger v. Kirk et al. in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia. The Company is a nominal defendant in this action, and other defendants include certain of the Company's directors, the Company's CEO, and Third Security. The complaint alleges causes of action for breaches of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment relating to the entry by the Company into the Services Agreement with Third Security, Mr. Kirk's compensation, and certain allegations contained in the April 2016 Seeking Alpha financial blog piece. Based on the determination of the SLC and a review of applicable law, the Company intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously; however, there can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of this case.
The Division of Enforcement of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") is conducting an investigation which the Company believes concerns certain issues raised by the foregoing matters. The Company has met with the SEC staff and is voluntarily cooperating with their investigation. The Company's board of directors has authorized the SLC to monitor the Company's interaction with the SEC staff.
The Company may become subject to other claims and assessments from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. The Company accrues liabilities for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. As

of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company does not believe that any such matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Third Security and Affiliates
The Company's CEO and Chairman of the board of directors of the Company is also the Senior Managing Director and CEO of Third Security and owns 100% of the equity interests of Third Security.
In November 2015, the independent members of Intrexon's board of directors, with the recommendation of the audit committee of the board of directors, approved the execution of a Services Agreement ("Services Agreement") with Third Security pursuant to which Third Security provides the Company with certain professional, legal, financial, administrative, and other support services necessary to support the Company and its CEO. As consideration for providing these services, Third Security is entitled to a fee of $800 per month to be paid in the form of fully-vested shares of the Company's common stock. The number of shares of common stock is calculated based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the 15th day of each month. The payments made by the Company under the Services Agreement constitute, in the aggregate, an award under the 2013 Plan and are subject to the terms of the 2013 Plan (Note 15). The Services Agreement had a term of one year, can be terminated by the Company at any time, and may be extended only by agreement of the parties, including approval of a majority of the independent members of Intrexon's board of directors. In October 2016, the independent members of Intrexon's board of directors, with the recommendation of the audit committee of the board of directors, approved an extension of the Services Agreement through December 31, 2016.

opportunities with respect to the Company's existing collaborations. Any such opportunities are presented at the Company's discretion on a non-exclusive basis. The agreement with Harvest does not limit the Company's ability to execute other collaborations and joint ventures with third parties. As consideration for providing exclusive rights of first-look and first negotiation for start-up opportunities, the Company receivesreceived a portion of the management fee collected by the fund sponsor of Harvest. These fees are included in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and totaled $623 and $613 for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $1,226$1,839 and $1,258$1,871 for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. In September 2017, the commitment period for Harvest was terminated and, as a result, our agreement with Harvest terminated. The termination of the agreement had no effect on the already-established collaborations with Harvest-sponsored entities.

19. Subsequent Events
In November 2017, concurrent with the closing of Oragenics' preferred stock financing, the Company exchanged its Oragenics' Promissory Note and receivables due from Oragenics, as well as accrued interest, totaling $3,376 for Oragenics Series C preferred stock ("Series C Preferred Stock"). The Series C Preferred Stock is non-voting and non-convertible and is redeemable in whole or part at any time by Oragenics in cash. The Series C Preferred Stock accrues an annual 12% dividend payable in additional Series C Preferred Stock through May 10, 2019, and after such date, the annual dividend increases to 20%. Additionally, the Company and Oragenics amended certain future payment terms under its ECCs.
In October 2017, the Company entered into a Preferred Stock Equity Facility ("Preferred Stock Facility") with an affiliate of Third Security ("Third Security Affiliate"). Under the Preferred Stock Facility, the Company may, from time to time at its sole and exclusive option, issue and sell to the Third Security Affiliate, up to $100,000 of newly issued Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock"). Any issued Series A Preferred Stock is non-voting, accrues dividends of 8% per annum and, subject to limited exceptions, is senior to Intrexon's common stock with respect to the rights to the payment of dividends and on parity with the common stock with respect to the distribution of assets in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up or change of control of Intrexon. Any issued Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock only following receipt of shareholder approval by the Company, including a majority of the shares voted by those shareholders unaffiliated with Mr. Kirk (the "Shareholder Approval"), subject to any necessary regulatory approvals. Following receipt of the Shareholder Approval and receipt of any necessary regulatory approvals, any issued Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into Intrexon common stock based on a conversion price using the 20-day volume-weighted average market price as of market closing on the fifth business day prior to the mailing of the proxy statement soliciting the Shareholder Approval, subject to adjustment for certain stock splits and similar events. The Company has agreed to take all reasonable steps necessary to seek Shareholder Approval on or before the date of its annual meeting of shareholders in 2019. Any issued Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable at the election of the Company at any time, or at the election of the Third Security Affiliate after December 31, 2020. The Preferred Stock Facility will expire on the earliest to occur of: (i) the date on which the Third Security Affiliate has purchased shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the aggregate amount of $100,000, (ii) April 30, 2019, (iii) the date of the Shareholder Approval, and (iv) the mutual agreement of the parties.
Also, in November 2017, the Company filed with the State Corporation Commission of the Commonwealth of Virginia (the "SCC") Articles of Amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the "Amendment"), which amended Article III thereof to set the designations of the Series A Preferred Stock (described above) to be issued pursuant to the Preferred Stock Facility. The Amendment became effective upon the issuance by the SCC in November 2017 of a certificate of amendment.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial information and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly in "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors." The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made only as of the date hereof.
Overview
We believe we are a leader in the field of synthetic biology, an emerging and rapidly evolving discipline that applies engineering principles to biological systems to enable rational, design-based control of cellular function for a specific purpose. Using our suite of proprietary and complementary technologies, we design, build and regulate gene programs, which are DNA sequences that consist of key genetic components. A single gene program or a complex, multi-genic program are fabricated and stored within a DNA vector. Vectors are segments of DNA used as a vehicle to transmit genetic information. DNA vectors can, in turn, be introduced into cells in order to generate a simple or complex cellular system, which are the basic and complex cellular activities that take place within a cell and the interaction of those systems in the greater cellular environment. It is these genetically modified cell systems that can be used to produce biological effector molecules, or be employed directly to enable the development of new and improved products and manufacturing processes across a variety of end markets, including health, food, energy, environment, and consumer. Our synthetic biology capabilities include the ability to precisely control the amount, location and modification of biological molecules to control the function and output of living cells and optimize for desired results at an industrial scale.
We believe that because synthetic biology has applicability across many diverse end markets, we cannot take full advantage of synthetic biology with internal development programs alone. To address this, we have devised our business model to allow us to focus on our core expertise in synthetic biology while bringing many different commercial products to market via collaborations in a broad range of industries or end markets, thus minimizing and leveraging the use of our own capital.
Our business model iswas built primarily around the formation of exclusive channel collaborations, or ECCs. An ECC is an agreement with a collaborator to develop products based on technologies in a specifically defined field. We seekHistorically, we have sought collaborators that havewith expertise within a specific industry sector and the commitment to provide resources for the commercialization of products within that industry sector. In our ECCs, we provide expertise in the engineering of gene programs and cellular systems, and our collaborators are responsible for providing market and product development expertise, as well as sales and marketing capabilities.
This business model allows us to leverage our capabilities and capital across numerous product development programs and a broader landscape of end markets than we would be capable of addressing on our own. Our ECC business model also allows us to participate in the potential upside from products that are enabled by our technologies across an extensive range of industries, without the need for us to invest considerable resources in bringing individual products to market. Additionally, the flexibility of the business model allows us to collaborate with a range of counterparts, from small innovative companies to global multinational conglomerates.
Alternatively, we may executehave sometimes executed a research collaboration to develop an early-stage program pursuant to which we receivereceived reimbursement for our development costs but the exclusive commercial rights, and related access fees, arewere deferred until completion of an initial research program.
InOver time, our business model has evolved. First, in certain strategic circumstances, we may enter into a joint venture, or JV, with a third party collaborator whereby we may contribute access to our technology, cash or both into the JV which we will jointly control with our collaborator. Pursuant to a JV agreement, we may be required to contribute additional capital to the JV, and we may be able to receive a higher financial return than we would normally receive from an ECC to the extent that we and our collaborator are successful in developing one or more products. For a discussion of our JVs, see the "Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Note 4" appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Second, while we seek to maintain a competitive edge in gene program creation and host cell and genome expertise, we have begun to finance internally early stage proof of concept programs and have sought to partner, on an industry segment basis, more mature

programs and capabilities. By doing this, we endeavor to maximize leverage of our capital resources and ultimately hope to realize significant value from mature assets.
As we consider the broad potential applications of our synthetic biology technologies, and consistent with the evolution of our business model, we have identified a number of ventures that are already enabling products that benefit from the application of such technology. We believe that the strategic acquisition of certain such companies will allow us to develop and commercialize innovative products and create significant value for us. Our business model therefore includes the acquisition of certain product-focused companies that may leverage our technologies and expertise in order to expand their respective product applications.
As a means to further the development of our business model, in June 2015, we entered into an agreement with Harvest Intrexon Enterprise Fund I, LP, or Harvest, an investment fund sponsored by Harvest Capital Strategies, LLC, and a related party based on ownership in the fund by affiliates of Third Security, LLC, or Third Security. Harvest was established to invest in life science research and development start-up opportunities that we offeroffered to Harvest. These are investment proposals that are suitable for pursuit by a start-up venture, characterized by the agreement as "start-up opportunities." For such start-up opportunities, we provide Harvest with exclusive rights of first-look and first negotiation. For any opportunities it decides to pursue,Based on this agreement, Harvest establishesestablished six new collaboration entities, each of which enterentered into an ECC with us in a designated field. The terms of such ECCs arewere negotiated between us and Harvest.  In addition, the agreement provides us the right to present to Harvest the opportunity to invest in other ventures, including investment opportunities with respect to our existing collaborations. Any such opportunities are presented at our discretion on a non-exclusive basis. The agreement with Harvest does not limit our ability to execute other collaborations and JVs with third parties. As consideration for providing exclusive rights of first-look and first negotiation for start-up opportunities, we receivereceived a portion of the management fee collected by the fund sponsor of Harvest. In September 2017, the commitment period for Harvest was terminated and, as a result, our agreement with Harvest terminated. The termination of the agreement had no effect on the already-established collaborations with Harvest-sponsored entities.
Pursuant to our business model, we may receive equity in lieu of cash for technology access fees and milestones and also may participate in capital raises to allow earlier-stage collaborators to focus their resources on product development. However, when such a collaborator develops greater operational or financial resources, its shares become a financial asset within Intrexon that is independent of our operational or collaborative purposes.
Mergers, acquisitions, and technology in-licensing
We may augment our suite of proprietary technologies through mergers or acquisitions of technologies which then become available to new or existing collaborators. Among other things, we pursue technologies that we believe will be generally complementary to our existing technologies and also meet our desired return on investment and other economic criteria. In certain cases, such technologies may already be applied in the production of products or services and in these cases we may seek to expand the breadth or efficacy of such products or services through the use of our technologies. See "Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Note 3" appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for further discussion of mergers, acquisitions or significant technology in-licensing activities in 2017.
Financial overview
We have incurred significant losses since our inception. We anticipate that we may continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future, and we may never achieve or maintain profitability. We have never generated any royalty revenues from sales of products by our collaborators and may never be profitable. Certain of our consolidated subsidiaries require regulatory approval and/or commercial scale-up before they may commence significant product sales and operating profits.
We expect our future capital requirements will be substantial, particularly as we continue to develop our business and expand our synthetic biology technology platform. In October 2017, we entered into a Preferred Stock Equity Facility, or Preferred Stock Facility, with an affiliate of Third Security, which will terminate no later than April 30, 2019. Our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer also serves as the Senior Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Third Security and owns all of the outstanding equity interests. Under the Preferred Stock Facility, we may, at our sole and exclusive option, issue and sell to the affiliate of Third Security, up to $100 million of newly issued Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock, or Series A Preferred Stock. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and cash expected to be received through our current collaborators and for sales of products and services provided by our consolidated subsidiaries, and any issuances of Series A Preferred Stock under the Preferred Stock Facility will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.
Sources of revenue
We derive our collaboration and licensing revenues through the execution of agreements with counterparties for the development and commercialization of products enabled by our technologies. Generally, the terms of these collaborations provide that we receive some or all of the following: (i) technology access fees upon signing; (ii) reimbursements of costs

incurred by us for our research and development and/or manufacturing efforts related to specific applications provided for in the collaboration; (iii) milestone payments upon the achievement of specified development, regulatory and commercial activities; and (iv) royalties on sales of products arising from the collaboration.
Our technology access fees and milestone payments may be in the form of cash or securities of the collaborator. Our collaborations contain multiple arrangements and we typically defer revenues from the technology access fees and milestone

payments received and recognize such revenues in the future over the anticipated performance period. We are also entitled to sublicensing revenues in those situations where our collaborators choose to license our technologies to other parties.
From time to time, we and certain collaborators may cancel the agreements, relieving us of any further performance obligations under the agreement. When no further performance obligations are required of us under an agreement, we recognize any remaining deferred revenue.
We generate product and service revenues primarily through sales of products or services which are created from technologies developed or owned by us. Our current offerings include sales of advanced reproductive technologies, including our bovine embryo transfer and in vitro fertilization processes and from genetic preservation and sexed semen processes and applications of such processes to other livestock, as well as sales of livestock and embryos produced using these processes and used in production.  Revenue is recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) services have been rendered or delivery has occurred such that risk of loss has passed to the customer, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collection from the customer is reasonably assured.
In future periods, our revenues will depend on our ability to partner our more mature programs and capabilities, the number of collaborations to which we are party, the advancement and creation of programs within our collaborations and the extent to which our collaborators bring products enabled by our technologies to market. Our revenues will also depend upon our ability to maintain or improve the volume and pricing of our current product and service offerings and to develop new offerings from the various technologies of our subsidiaries. Our future revenues may also include additional revenue streams we may acquire through mergers and acquisitions. In light of our limited operating history and experience, there can be no assurance as to the timing, magnitude and predictability of revenues to which we might be entitled.
Cost of products and services
Cost of products and services includes primarily labor and related costs, drugs and supplies used primarily in the embryo transfer and in vitro fertilization processes, livestock and feed used in production, and facility charges, including rent and depreciation.  Fluctuations in the price of livestock and feed have not had a significant impact on our operating margins and no derivative financial instruments are used to mitigate the price risk.
Research and development expenses
We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Our research and development expenses consist primarily of:
salaries and benefits, including stock-based compensation expense, for personnel in research and development functions;
fees paid to consultants and contract research organizations who perform research on our behalf and under our direction;
costs related to laboratory supplies used in our research and development efforts;
costs related to certain in-licensed technology rights;
depreciation of leasehold improvements and laboratory equipment;
amortization of patents and related technologies acquired in mergers and acquisitions; and
rent and utility costs for our research and development facilities.
We have no individually significant research and development projects and our research and development expenses primarily relate to either the costs incurred to expand or otherwise improve our multiple platform technologies, the costs incurred to

develop a specific application of our technologies in support of current or prospective collaborators, or costs incurred to expand or otherwise improve our products and services. Research and development expenses, including costs for preclinical and clinical development, incurred for programs we support pursuant to an ECC agreement are typically reimbursed by the collaborator at cost and all other research and development programs may be terminated or otherwise deferred at our discretion. The amount of our research and development expenses may be impacted by, among other things, the number of ECCs and the number and size of programs we may support on behalf of an ECC.

The table below summarizes our research and development expenses incurred to expand or otherwise improve our multiple platform technologies, the costs incurred to develop a specific application of our technologies in support of current or prospective collaborators and licensees, or costs incurred to expand or otherwise improve our products and services for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and 2016. Other research and development expenses for these periods include indirect salaries and overhead expenses that are not allocated to either expanding or improving our multiple platform technologies, specific applications of our technologies in support of current or prospective collaborators and licensees, or expanding or improving our product and services offerings.

We expect that our research and development expenses will increase as we continue to enter into new collaborations, develop our own proprietary programs, and as we expand our offerings across additional market sectors. We believe these increases will likely include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel in research and development functions, increased costs paid to consultants and contract research organizations and increased costs related to laboratory supplies. Research and development expenses may also increase as a result of ongoing research and development operations which we might assume through mergers and acquisitions.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, including stock-based compensation expense, for employees in executive, operational, finance, sales and marketing, information technology, legal and corporate communications functions. Other significant SG&A expenses include rent and utilities, insurance, accounting and legal services and expenses associated with obtaining and maintaining our intellectual property.
We expect that our SG&A expenses will continue to increase to support our expanding operations as we explore new partnering opportunities and continue to operate as a public company and expanddevelop our operations.proprietary programs. We believe that these increases will likely include costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and increased fees for business development functions, costs associated with defending the Company in litigation matters, the costs of outside consultants and other professional services, including costs to comply with corporate governance, internal controls and similar requirements applicable to public companies.services. SG&A expenses may also increase as a result of ongoing operations which we might assume through mergers and acquisitions.
Other income (expense), net
We hold equity securities and preferred stock received and/or purchased from certain collaborators. Other than investments accounted for using the equity method discussed below, we elected the fair value option to account for our equity securities and preferred stock held in these collaborators. These equity securities and preferred stock are recorded at fair value at each reporting date. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) resulting from fair value adjustments are reported as other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations. As such, we bear the risk that fluctuations in the securities' share prices may significantly impact our results of operations.

Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and short-term and long-term investments. Dividend income consists of the monthly preferred stock dividends received from our investments in preferred stock.
Interest expense pertains to deferred consideration payable to the former members of Trans Ova Genetics, L.C., or Trans Ova, and long term debt.

AsThrough September 2017, as consideration for providing exclusive rights of first-look and first negotiation, we receivereceived a portion of the management fee collected by the fund sponsor of Harvest for our obligation to provide Harvest with investment proposals that arewere suitable for pursuit by a start-up. We expect these fees to decrease subsequent to the termination of the commitment period for Harvest as provided for in the agreement. These fees are included in other income.
Equity in net income (loss) of affiliates
Equity in net income or loss of affiliates is our pro-rata share of our equity method investments' operating results, adjusted for accretion of basis difference. We account for investments in our JVs and start-up entities backed by Harvest using the equity method of accounting since we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating activities of these entities.

(1)For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017, revenue recognized from collaborations with Harvest start-up entities include Thrive Agrobiotics, Inc.; Exotech Bio, Inc.; Relieve Genetics, Inc.; AD Skincare, Inc.; Genten Therapeutics, Inc.; and CRS Bio, Inc. For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2016, revenue recognized from collaborations with Harvest start-up entities include Thrive Agrobiotics, Inc.; Exotech Bio, Inc.; and Relieve Genetics, Inc.; and AD Skincare Inc.
Collaboration and licensing revenues decreased $2.4 million, or 8 percent, from the three months ended September 30, 2016 due to a decrease in research and development services for certain of our ECCs as we temporarily redeployed certain resources towards supporting prospective new platforms and partnering opportunities.
Product revenues and gross margin
Product revenues decreased $1.6 million, or 17 percent, from the three months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in product revenues was primarily due to lower customer demand for cows and live calves. Gross margin on products also decreased in the current period primarily due to customer demand.
Service revenues and gross margin
Service revenues increased $1.3 million, or 15 percent, over the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in service revenues relates to an increase in the number of bovine in vitro fertilization cycles performed due to higher customer demand. Gross margin on these services was consistent period over period.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses increased $7.4 million, or 26 percent, over the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase is due primarily to increases in (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel costs for research and development employees, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) rent and utilities expenses, and (iv) lab supplies and consulting expenses. Salaries, benefits and other personnel costs increased $2.6 million due to an increase in research and development headcount necessary to invest in current or expanding platforms and to develop new prospective collaborations and other partnering

opportunities. Depreciation and amortization increased $2.0 million primarily as a result of (i) the amortization of developed technology acquired from Oxitec Limited, or Oxitec, which began in November 2016 upon the completion of certain operational and regulatory events, and (ii) the amortization of developed technology acquired from GenVec, Inc., or GenVec, in June 2017. Rent and utilities expenses increased $1.4 million due to the expansion of certain facilities to support our increased headcount. Lab supplies and consulting expenses increased $1.1 million as a result of (i) the progression of certain programs into the preclinical and clinical phases with certain of our collaborators and (ii) the expansion or improvement of certain of our platform technologies.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
SG&A expenses increased $5.5 million, or 16 percent, over the three months ended September 30, 2016. Salaries, benefits and other personnel costs increased $2.7 million primarily due to (i) increased headcount to support our expanding operations and (ii) increased stock-based compensation expense resulting from grants to certain of our officers in February 2017. Legal and professional fees increased $0.9 million primarily due to (i) increased legal fees to defend ongoing litigation and (ii) increased fees incurred for business development and prospective partnering efforts.
Total other income, net
Total other income, net, increased $1.4 million or 31 percent, over the three months ended September 30, 2016. This increase was primarily attributable to (i) increases in fair market value of our equity securities portfolio and (ii) dividend income from our investments in preferred stock.
Equity in net loss of affiliates
Equity in net loss of affiliates for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 includes our pro-rata share of the net losses of our investments we account for using the equity method of accounting. The $3.3 million, or 52 percent, decrease from the three months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to the temporary redeployment of certain resources away from these JV programs towards supporting prospective new platforms and additional collaborations.

Liquidity and capital resources
Sources of liquidity
We have incurred losses from operations since our inception and as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of $780.9$820.6 million. From our inception through JuneSeptember 30, 2017, we have funded our operations principally with proceeds received from private and public offerings, cash received from our collaborators and through product and service sales made directly to customers. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $64.4$64.2 million and short-term investments of $92.8$44.5 million. Additionally, in October 2017, we entered into the Preferred Stock Facility with an affiliate of Third Security through which we may draw an additional $100 million through the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock. Cash in excess of immediate requirements is invested primarily in money market funds and U.S. government debt securities in order to maintain liquidity and preserve capital.
We currently generate cash receipts primarily from technology access fees, reimbursement of research and development services performed by us and sales of products and services.

Future capital requirements
We established our current strategy and business model of commercializing our technologies through collaborations with development expertise in 2010, and we consummated our first collaboration in January 2011. We believe that we willour efforts to partner our more mature programs and capabilities and to continue to consummate collaborations with new companies across our various market sectors which will result in additional upfront, milestone and cost recovery payments in the future.
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and cash expected to be received from our current collaborators and for sales of products and services provided by our consolidated subsidiaries, and proceeds received from any issuance of Series A Preferred Stock under the Preferred Stock Facility will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.

We have based our estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we may use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
 
progress in our research and development programs, as well as the magnitude of these programs;
the timing, receipt and amount of upfront, milestone and other payments, if any, from present and future collaborators, if any;
the timing, receipt and amount of sales and royalties, if any, from our potential products;
our ability to maintain or improve the volume and pricing of our current product and service offerings and to develop new offerings, including those which may incorporate new technologies;
the timing, receipt and amount of funding under future government contracts, if any;
our ability to maintain and establish additional collaborative arrangements and/or new business initiatives;
the timing of regulatory approval of products of our collaborations and operations;
the resources, time and cost required for the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance and enforcement of patent claims;
investments we may make in current and future collaborators, including JVs;

strategic mergers and acquisitions, including both the upfront acquisition cost as well as the cost to integrate, maintain, and expand the strategic target; and
the costs associated with legal activities, including litigation, arising in the course of our business activities and our ability to prevail in any such legal disputes.
Until such time, if ever, as we can regularly generate positive operating cash flows, we may finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, including issuances from the Preferred Stock Facility; debt financings,financings; government or other third-party funding,funding; strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interests of our common shareholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our common shareholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through government or other third-party funding, marketing and distribution arrangements or other collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us.

In addition to the obligations in the table above, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 we also have the following significant contractual obligations described below.
In conjunction with the formation of our JVs, we committed to making future capital contributions of at least $45.0 million to the JVs, subject to certain conditions and limitations. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, our remaining capital contribution commitments to our JVs were $24.7$19.2 million. These future capital contributions are not included in the table above due to the uncertainty of the timing and amounts of such contributions.
We are party to in-licensed research and development agreements with various academic and commercial institutions where we could be required to make future payments for annual maintenance fees as well as for milestones and royalties we might receive upon commercial sales of products which incorporate their technologies. These agreements are generally subject to termination by us and therefore no amounts are included in the tables above. At JuneSeptember 30, 2017, we also had research and development commitments with third parties totaling $11.0$9.5 million that had not yet been incurred.
In January 2015, we and ZIOPHARM jointly entered into a license agreement with the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, or MD Anderson, whereby we received an exclusive license to certain technologies owned by MD Anderson. ZIOPHARM will receive access to these technologies pursuant to the terms of our ECC. We and ZIOPHARM are obligated to reimburse MD Anderson for out of pocket expenses for maintaining patents covering the licensed technologies. These reimbursements are not included in the table above due to the uncertainty of the timing and amounts of such reimbursements.
As part of our August 2014 acquisition of Trans Ova, we agreed to pay a portion of certain cash proceeds received from the litigation with XY. These amounts are not included in the table above due to the uncertainty of whether and when any amounts may be due.

In conjunction with a prior transaction associated with Trans Ova's subsidiary, ViaGen, L.C., or ViaGen, in September 2012, we may be obligated to make certain future contingent payments to the former equity holders of ViaGen, up to a total of $3.0 million if certain revenue targets, as defined in the share purchase agreement, are met. This amount is not included in the table above due to the uncertainty of when we will make any of these future payments, if ever.
In January 2009, AquaBounty was awarded a grant to provide funding of a research and development project from the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, a Canadian government agency. Amounts claimed by AquaBounty must be repaid in the form of a 10 percent royalty on any products commercialized out of this research and development project until fully paid. Because the timing of commercialization is subject to additional regulatory considerations, the timing of repayment is uncertain. AquaBounty has claimed all amounts available under the grant, resulting in total long term debt of $2.0$2.1 million on our consolidated financial statements as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017. This amount is not included in the table above due to the uncertainty of the timing of repayment.
Net operating losses
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, we had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $248.3$243.7 million for U.S. federal income tax purposes available to offset future taxable income, including approximately $13.4 million obtained via theacquired in our acquisition of GenVec, and U.S. federal and state research and development tax credits of $7.7approximately $7.8 million, prior to consideration of annual limitations that may be imposed under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or

Section 382. These carryforwards begin to expire in 2022. Our direct foreign subsidiaries have foreign loss carryforwards of approximately $137.0$146.8 million, most of which do not expire. Excluding certain deferred tax liabilities totaling $16.3$15.9 million, our remaining net deferred tax assets, which primarily relate to these loss carryforwards, are offset by a valuation allowance due to our history of net losses.
Our past issuances of stock and mergers and acquisitions have resulted in ownership changes within the meaning of Section 382. As a result, the utilization of portions of our net operating losses may be subject to annual limitations. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, approximately $15.1 million of our domestic net operating losses generated prior to 2008 are limited by Section 382 to annual usage limits of approximately $1.5 million. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, approximately $33.6 million of domestic net operating losses were inherited via acquisition and are limited based on the value of the respective targets at the time of the transaction. Future changes in stock ownership may also trigger an ownership change and, consequently, a Section 382 limitation.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, other than operating leases and purchase commitments as mentioned above, as defined under Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, rules.
Critical accounting policies and estimates
Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies from those described in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Recent accounting pronouncements
For information with respect to recent accounting pronouncements and the impact of these pronouncements on our consolidated financial statements, see "Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Note 2" appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The following sections provide quantitative information on our exposure to interest rate risk, stock price risk, and foreign currency exchange risk. We make use of sensitivity analyses which are inherently limited in estimating actual losses in fair value that can occur from changes in market conditions.
Interest rate risk
We had cash, cash equivalents and short-term and long-term investments of $157.2$108.7 million and $243.2 million at JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents and short-term and long-term investments consist of cash, money market funds, U.S. government debt securities, corporate notes and bonds, and certificates of deposit. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal, maintain liquidity and maximize income without significantly increasing risk. Our investments consist of U.S. government debt securities, corporate notes and bonds, and certificates of deposit which may be subject to market risk due to changes in prevailing interest rates that may cause the fair values of our investments to fluctuate. We believe that a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would not materially affect the fair value of our interest-sensitive financial instruments and any such losses would only be realized if we sold the investments prior to maturity.


Investments in publicly traded companies' common stock
We have common stock investments in several publicly traded companies that are subject to market price volatility. We have adopted the fair value method of accounting for these investments, except for our investment in AquaBounty as further described below, and therefore, have recorded them at fair value at the end of each reporting period with the unrealized gain or loss recorded as a separate component of other income (expense), net for the period. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the original aggregate cost basis of these investments was $102.6 million and $104.0 million, respectively, and the market value was $23.9$26.6 million and $23.5 million, respectively. The fair value of these investments is subject to fluctuation in the future due to the volatility of the stock market, changes in general economic conditions and changes in the financial conditions of these companies. The fair value of these investments as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 would be approximately $26.3$29.3 million and $19.1$21.3 million, respectively, based on a hypothetical 10 percent increase or 20 percent decrease in the value of the investments. The fair value of these investments as of December 31, 2016 would be approximately $25.9 million and $18.8 million, respectively, based on a hypothetical 10 percent increase or 20 percent decrease in the value of the investments.
The common stock of AquaBounty commenced trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market in January 2017 and ceased trading on the London Stock Exchange in May 2017. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017, we owned 5,162,277 shares or approximately 58 percent.percent of AquaBounty. The fair value of our investment in AquaBounty as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $41.4$36.7 million and $40.1 million, respectively, based on AquaBounty's quoted closing price on the NASDAQ Stock Market and London Stock Exchange, respectively. The fair value of our investment in AquaBounty as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 would be approximately $45.5$40.4 million and $33.1$29.4 million, respectively, based on a hypothetical 10 percent increase or 20 percent decrease in the share price of AquaBounty. The fair value of our investment in AquaBounty as of December 31, 2016 would be approximately $44.1 million and $32.1 million, respectively, based on a hypothetical 10 percent increase or 20 percent decrease in the share price of AquaBounty.
Investments in publicly traded companies' preferred stock
We have preferred stock investments in two publicly traded companies, which may be converted to common stock in the future. We have adopted the fair value method of accounting for these investments whereby the value of preferred stock is adjusted to fair value as of each reporting date. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the original cost basis of these investments, including dividends, was $136.2$140.5 million and $127.4 million, respectively, and the fair value of these investments was $144.7$148.5 million and $129.5 million, respectively. The fair value of these investments is subject to fluctuation in the future due to, among other things, the likelihood and timing of conversion of the preferred stock into common stock, the volatility of each company's common stock, and changes in general economic and financial conditions of these companies. The fair value of these investments as of JuneSeptember 30, 2017 would be approximately $159.2$163.4 million and $115.8$118.8 million, respectively, based on a hypothetical 10 percent increase or 20 percent decrease in the value of the investments. The fair value of these investments as of December 31, 2016 would be approximately $142.5 million and $103.6 million, respectively, based on a hypothetical 10 percent increase or 20 percent decrease in the value of the investments.


Foreign currency exchange risk
We have international subsidiaries in Belgium, Brazil, Canada, England, and Hungary. These subsidiaries' assets, liabilities, and current revenues and expenses are denominated in their respective foreign currency. We do not hedge our foreign currency exchange rate risk. The effect of a hypothetical 10 percent change in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to our business would not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we carried out an evaluation, under supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), who is our principal executive officer, and our Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), who is our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, 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 CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2017, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in litigation or legal matters incidental to our business activities. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not currently expect that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our business or financial position. However, should one or more of these matters be resolved in a manner adverse to our current expectation, the effect on our results of operations for a particular fiscal reporting period could be material.
In May 2016, two putative shareholder class action lawsuits, captioned Hoffman v. Intrexon Corporation et al. and Gibrall v. Intrexon Corporation et al., were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of purchasers of our common stock between May 12, 2015 and April 20, 2016, or the Class Period. In July 2016, the court consolidated the lawsuits and appointed a lead plaintiff. The consolidated amended complaint names as defendants us and certain of our current and former officers, or the Defendants. It alleges, among other things, that the Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements during the Class Period with respect to our business, operations, and prospects in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The plaintiffs' claims are based in part upon allegations in a report published in April 2016 on the Seeking Alpha financial blog. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, interest and an award of reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. The Defendants moved to dismiss the case. On February 24, 2017, the court granted our motion to dismiss the lawsuit on the grounds that the plaintiff failed to state a claim, while granting the plaintiff leave to amend. The plaintiff subsequently notified the court that it would seek to appeal the court's ruling rather than amend its complaint. On April 26, 2017, the court entered final judgment in the case. Notice of appeal was filed by the plaintiff on May 26, 2017. We intendOn October 26, 2017, the plaintiff filed a voluntary motion to continue to defenddismiss the lawsuit vigorously; however, there can be no assurance regardingcase, which the ultimate outcomecourt of this case.appeals granted on November 1, 2017.
In July 2016, a putative shareholder derivative action captioned Basile v. Kirk et al. was filed in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, against certain of our directors, our CEO, and Third Security, and naming us as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleges causes of action for breaches of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment relating to the entry by us into the Services Agreement with Third Security. The plaintiff seeks, among other things, damages in an unspecified amount, disgorgement of improper benefits, appropriate equitable relief, and an award of attorney fees and other costs and expenses. The complaint is substantially similar to two separate demands made by shareholders concerning the Services Agreement and Mr. Kirk's compensation. Our board of directors appointed a Special Litigation Committee, or the SLC, consisting of independent directors to investigate the claims and allegations made in the derivative action and in the two shareholder demands and to decide on our behalf whether the claims and allegations should be pursued. The Basile case was stayed pending the report of the SLC. In November 2016, the SLC completed its review and evaluation and unanimously determined that the claims were without merit because the compensation arrangements were the result of an informed and disinterested decision-making process and were fair to the Company, and that prosecution of the asserted claims was not in our or our shareholders' best interest. Based upon the determination of the SLC, on February 24, 2017 we moved to dismiss the court action pursuant to Virginia statute. On June 8, 2017, the court granted our motion to dismiss while granting the plaintiff leave to amend. On August 30, 2017, the plaintiff filed a consent motion for leave to amend along with the amended shareholder derivative complaint. The Company moved to dismiss the amended complaint on October 6, 2017. We intend to continue to defend the lawsuit vigorously. There can be no assurance, however, regarding the ultimate outcome of the case.
In addition to the shareholder demands described above, in June and July 2016, two shareholders made separate demands under Virginia law demanding that we file suit against certain of our current officers and directors for alleged breaches of fiduciary duty and other claims. The demands were based upon and asserted the allegations previously published in April 2016 in the Seeking Alpha financial blog. In July 2016, our board of directors authorized the SLC to expand its review to include all such allegations. In February 2017, the SLC completed its review and evaluation and unanimously determined that there was no basis for any of the allegations, that our officers and directors did not breach their fiduciary duties or any other applicable law, and that prosecution of the asserted claims was not in our or our shareholders' best interest. Following the SLC's determination, in March 2017, one of the putative shareholders filed a derivative complaint captioned Luger v. Kirk et al. in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia. We are a nominal defendant in this action, and other defendants include certain of our directors, our CEO, and Third Security. The complaint alleges causes of action for breaches of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment relating to our entry into the Services Agreement with Third Security, our CEO's compensation, and certain allegations contained in the April 2016 Seeking Alpha financial blog piece. Based on the determination of the SLC and a review of applicable law, we intend to defend the lawsuit vigorously; however, there can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of this case.


The Division of Enforcement of the SEC is conducting an investigation which we believe concerns certain issues raised by the foregoing matters. We have met with the SEC staff and are voluntarily cooperating with their investigation. Our board of directors has authorized the SLC to monitor our interaction with the SEC staff.


Item 1A. Risk Factors
As disclosed in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, there are a number of risks and uncertainties that may have a material effect on the operating results of our business and our financial condition. There are no additional material updates or changes to our risk factors since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2016, except as follows:
Randal J. Kirk controls approximately 47 percent of our common stock as of September 30, 2017, and is able to control or significantly influence corporate actions, which may result in Mr. Kirk taking actions contrary to the desires of our other shareholders.
We have historically been controlled, managed and principally funded by Randal J. Kirk, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and affiliates of Mr. Kirk, including Third Security. As of September 30, 2017, Mr. Kirk and shareholders affiliated with him beneficially owned approximately 47 percent of our voting stock. In addition, pursuant to our Preferred Stock Facility, we may, from time to time at our sole and exclusive option, issue and sell to an affiliate of Mr. Kirk up to 1,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which will be convertible into shares of our common stock upon the approval of our shareholders, subject to regulatory approval, at a conversion rate based on future market prices. Mr. Kirk is able to control or significantly influence all matters requiring approval by our shareholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers or other business combination transactions. The interests of Mr. Kirk may not always coincide with the interests of other shareholders, and he may take actions that advance his personal interests and are contrary to the desires of our other shareholders.
In connection with the Preferred Stock Facility, we have filed an amendment to our articles of incorporation to set the designations of our new Series A Preferred Stock with terms that are preferential to those of our common stock.
Our articles of incorporation authorize us to issue, without the approval of our shareholders, one or more classes or series of preferred stock having such designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights, including preferences over our common stock respecting dividends and distributions, as our board of directors may determine. In connection with our Preferred Stock Facility, we filed an amendment to our articles of incorporation to set the designations of our Series A Preferred Stock, which, if and when issued, will have certain preferences over our common stock, including accrued dividends of 8 percent per annum and, subject to limited exceptions, seniority to our common stock with respect to the rights to the payment of dividends and on parity with our common stock with respect to the distribution of assets in the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up or change of control of the Company.
After December 31, 2020, the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock, if and when issued, may require us to redeem any or all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock.
If we are unable to obtain the approval of our shareholders to convert any outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock prior to December 31, 2020, the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock may require us to redeem any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the issue price of $100 per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends thereon to, but not including, the redemption date, subject to adjustments. Any such redemption of our Series A Preferred Stock in cash would reduce the cash that we have available to invest in our business. In the event that we have issued Series A Preferred Stock and redemption is required, there can be no assurance that we will have enough cash at such time to redeem the outstanding shares.
Additionally, in evaluating our risks, readers also should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or operating results, in addition to the other information set forth in this report and in our other filings with the SEC.


Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
(a) Sales of Unregistered Securities
From AprilJuly 1, 2017 through JuneSeptember 30, 2017, we consummated the following transactions involving the issuance of unregistered securities:
the issuance of 106,891118,828 unregistered shares of our common stock in April, May,July, August, and JuneSeptember 2017, as payment under the Services Agreement entered into and effective as of November 1, 2015, as amended, by and between us and Third Security as previously discussed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 30, 2015,2015; November 3, 2016; and
the issuance of 2,049 unregistered shares of our common stock at a weighted average issuance price of $21.94 per share in May and June 2017 as payment under a consulting agreement between us and Hyphen Fund Management LLC. December 30, 2016. We issued these shares of common stock in reliance on exemptions from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
(b) Use of Proceeds
On January 27, 2015, we closed a public offering of 4,312,500 shares of our common stock (inclusive of 562,500 shares of common stock sold by us pursuant to the full exercise of an option granted to the underwriters in connection with the offering) at a public offering price of $27.00 per share for aggregate gross offering proceeds of approximately $116.4 million. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated acted as joint book-running managers. Net proceeds to us were approximately $110.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $6.1 million and other offering expenses of approximately $0.3 million. No payments were made by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our common stock or to their associates, or to our affiliates. We invested the funds received in cash equivalents and other short-term and long-term investments in accordance with our investment policy. There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from this offering as described in our final prospectus, dated January 21, 2015, and filed with the SEC on January 22, 2015 pursuant to Rule 424(b).
On August 26, 2015, we closed a public offering of 5,609,756 shares of our common stock (inclusive of 731,707 shares of common stock sold by us pursuant to the full exercise of an option granted to the underwriters in connection with the offering) at a public offering price of $41.00 per share for aggregate gross offering proceeds of approximately $230.0 million. JMP Securities LLC acted as sole book-running manager. Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated acted as lead manager. Griffin Securities, Inc. and Wunderlich Securities, Inc. acted as co-managers. Net proceeds to us were approximately $218.2 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $11.5 million and other offering expenses of approximately $0.3 million. No payments were made by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our common stock or to their associates, or to our affiliates. We invested the funds received in cash equivalents and other short-term and long-term investments in accordance with our investment policy. There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from this offering as described in our final prospectus, dated August 21, 2015, and filed with the SEC on August 25, 2015 pursuant to Rule 424(b).
(c) Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
On November 6, 2017, we filed with the State Corporation Commission of the Commonwealth of Virginia, the SCC, Articles of Amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, or the Amendment, which amended Article III thereof to set the designations of the Series A Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to the Preferred Stock Facility. The Amendment became effective upon the issuance by the SCC on November 6, 2017, of a certificate of amendment.
The Amendment authorizes 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which are non-voting, accrue dividends of 8 percent per annum and, subject to limited exceptions, are senior to our common stock with respect to the rights to the payment of dividends and on parity with our common stock with respect to the distribution of assets in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up or change of control. The Series A Preferred Stock is also redeemable at our election at any time, or at the election of the holders thereof after December 31, 2020.
The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of our common stock following the approval of our shareholders, including a majority of the shares voted by shareholders unaffiliated with Mr. Kirk, subject to any regulatory approvals. The conversion price used for the conversion will be the 20-day volume-weighted average market price of our common stock as of market closing on the fifth business day prior to the mailing of the proxy statement soliciting the shareholder approval, subject to adjustment for certain stock splits and similar events. We have agreed to take all reasonable steps necessary to seek


shareholder approval on or before the date of our annual meeting of shareholders in 2019. In addition, prior to conversion, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up or change of control, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to participate with the holders of our common stock on a pro rata, as-converted basis, based on a deemed conversion rate of $18.96, which was calculated using the 20-day volume-weighted average market price of our common stock as of market closing on October 13, 2017, subject to adjustment for certain stock splits and similar events.
The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment and the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and Exhibit 3.1, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
