Explanatory Note

Avid Bioservices, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (the “Amended Report”) to amend and restate its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnote information as of October 31, 2023 and for the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 (the “Restated Financial Statements”), previously included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 7, 2023 (the “Original Report”). This Amended Report also amends certain other information in the Original Report, as listed in “Items Amended in this Amended Report” below.

Background and Effect of Restatement

As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K, filed by the Company with the SEC on March 6, 2024, on February 29, 2024, the Company received an acceleration notice (the “Acceleration Notice”) from a holder of its 1.250% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The Acceleration Notice stipulated, among other things, that (i) the Company did not remove the restrictive legend on the 2026 Notes by March 17, 2022 as required under the indenture governing the 2026 Notes (the “2026 Notes Indenture”), (ii) due to such failure, additional interest accrued thereafter at a rate of 0.50% per annum (the “Additional Interest”), (iii) such Additional Interest had not been paid by the Company as of the date of the Acceleration Notice, which constituted an event of default under the 2026 Notes Indenture (the “Event of Default”), and (iv) such holder was the beneficial owner of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2026 Notes and therefore had the right to accelerate all of the 2026 Notes. As a result of the Event of Default, such holder declared 100% of the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the 2026 Notes to be due and payable immediately.

Following the receipt of the Acceleration Notice and a re-evaluation of the accounting for its 2026 Notes, the Company determined that the 2026 Notes should have been classified as a current liability following the Event of Default, resulting in an understatement of current liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

On March 11, 2024, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) determined, based on management’s recommendation, that as a result of the classification of the 2026 Notes as long-term liabilities, the consolidated financial statements included in the Original Report should no longer be relied upon.

The Company also determined that its interest expense for the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 was understated as a result of the failure to reflect the Additional Interest. This and other related adjustments to correct certain related misstatements pertaining to the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 that the Company has determined to be immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, are reflected in the restated unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Amended Report.

Items Amended in this Amended Report

This Amended Report presents the Original Report, amended and restated in its entirety, with modifications as necessary to the following items to reflect the foregoing restatement and Note 10, Subsequent Events:

	·	Part I, Item 1. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited);
	·	Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations;
	·	Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures; and
	·	Part II, Item 6. Exhibits.

References to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023 have also been updated in this Amended Report to refer to Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023, as filed with the SEC on April 24, 2024.

In addition, in accordance with applicable SEC rules, this Amended Report includes new certifications required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 from our principal executive officer and principal financial officer dated as of the filing date of this Amended Report.

Except as described above and in Note 10, Subsequent Events, this Amended Report does not amend, update or change any other items or disclosures in the Original Report and does not purport to reflect any information or events subsequent to the filing thereof. As such, except as described above and in Note 10, Subsequent Events, this Amended Report speaks only as of the date the Original Report was filed, and we have not undertaken herein to amend, supplement or update any information contained in the Original Report to give effect to any subsequent events. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original Report have not been revised to reflect events, results or developments that occurred or facts that became known to us after the date of the Original Report. Accordingly, this Amended Report should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Report.

Control Considerations

As a result of the information described above, management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level and the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the end of each of the periods covered by the restatement in this Amended Report. In connection with the restatement, the Company has identified a material weakness in the operation of internal control over financial reporting with respect to the review of information related to the 2026 Notes. For additional detail regarding the material weakness identified and a discussion of management’s evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, see Part I, Item 4, “Controls and Procedures” of this Amended Report.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Description of Company and Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) related to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form ~~10-K~~10-K/A for the fiscal year ended April 30, ~~2022,~~2023, as filed with the SEC on ~~June 29, 2022.~~April 24, 2024 (the “Amended Form 10-K”). The unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented herein reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented, with such adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments. Results of operations for interim periods covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not necessarily be indicative of results of operations for the full fiscal year or any other interim period.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Avid Bioservices, Inc. and its subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions among the consolidated entities have been eliminated in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts, as well as disclosures of commitments and contingencies in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions.

Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements

On February 29, 2024, we received an acceleration notice (the “Acceleration Notice”) from a holder of our 1.250% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The Acceleration Notice stipulated, among other things, that (i) we did not remove the restrictive legend on the 2026 Notes by March 17, 2022 as required under the indenture governing the 2026 Notes (the “2026 Notes Indenture”), (ii) due to such failure, additional interest had accrued thereafter at a rate of 0.50% per annum (the “Additional Interest”), (iii) such Additional Interest had not been paid by us as of the date of the Acceleration Notice, which constitutes an event of default under the 2026 Notes Indenture (the “Event of Default”), and (iv) such holder was the beneficial owner of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2026 Notes and therefore had the right to accelerate all of the 2026 Notes. As a result of the Event of Default, such holder declared 100% of the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the 2026 Notes to be due and payable immediately.

Following the receipt of the Acceleration Notice and a re-evaluation of the accounting for its 2026 Notes, we determined that the 2026 Notes should be classified as a current liability beginning on October 15, 2022, resulting in an understatement of current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. The re-classification of the 2026 Notes to a current liability resulted in negative working capital and created a substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. However, this substantial doubt has been resolved through the subsequent issuance of the 2029 Notes, as further described in Note 10, Subsequent Events. We also determined that our interest expense for the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 was understated in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) as a result of the failure to reflect the Additional Interest. This and other related adjustments and the related tax effect to correct certain related misstatements pertaining to the three- and six-month periods ended October 31, 2023 that we have determined to be immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, are reflected in the restated unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Amended Report. In addition to this note, Notes 2, 3, 7, 8, and 10 to the restated unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Amended Report have been updated and restated, as applicable, to reflect the impacts from the restatement.

The impact on the line items within our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 previously filed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 are as follows (in thousands, except par value and per share information):

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Information regarding our significant accounting policies is contained in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the consolidated financial statements in ~~our Annual Report on~~the Amended Form 10-K, ~~for~~as filed with the ~~fiscal year ended~~SEC on April ~~30, 2022.~~24, 2024.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue recognized from services provided under our customer contracts is disaggregated into manufacturing and process development revenue streams.

Manufacturing revenue

Manufacturing revenue generally represents revenue from the manufacturing of customer products recognized over time utilizing an input method that compares the cost of cumulative work-in-process to date to the most current estimates for the entire cost of the performance obligation. Under a manufacturing contract, a quantity of manufacturing runs are ordered at a specified scale with prescribed dates, where the product is manufactured according to the customer’s specifications and typically includes only one performance obligation. Each manufacturing run represents a distinct service that is sold separately and has stand-alone value to the customer. The products are manufactured exclusively for a specific customer and have no alternative use. The customer retains control of its product during the entire manufacturing process and can make changes to the process or specifications at its request. Under these agreements, we are entitled to consideration for progress to date that includes an element of profit margin.

Process development revenue

Process development revenue generally represents revenue from services associated with the custom development of a manufacturing process and analytical methods for a customer’s product. Process development revenue is recognized over time utilizing an input method that compares the cost of cumulative work-in-process to date to the most current estimates for the entire cost of the performance obligation. Under a process development contract, the customer owns the product details and process, which has no alternative use. These process development projects are customized to each customer to meet its specifications and typically includes only one performance obligation. Each process represents a distinct service that is sold separately and has stand-alone value to the customer. The customer also retains control of its product as the product is being created or enhanced by our services and can make changes to its process or specifications upon request. Under these agreements, we are entitled to consideration for progress to date that includes an element of profit margin.

The following table summarizes our ~~manufacturing and process development~~ revenue streams (in thousands):

Schedule of revenues
	Three Months Ended January 31,				Nine Months Ended January 31,				Three Months Ended October 31,				Six Months Ended October 31,
	2023		2022		2023		2022		2023		2022		2023		2022
Manufacturing revenues	$	32,182	$	26,170	$	91,277	$	73,858	$	20,128	$	27,614	$	53,548	$	59,095
Process development revenues		5,836		5,338		18,190		14,513		5,267		7,143		9,573		12,354
Total revenues	$	38,018	$	31,508	$	109,467	$	88,371	$	25,395	$	34,757	$	63,121	$	71,449

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, contract assets (unbilled receivables), and contract liabilities (customer deposits and deferred revenue). Contract assets are recorded when our right to consideration is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. Contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable on the consolidated balance sheet when our rights become unconditional. Contract liabilities represent customer deposits and deferred revenue billed and/or received in advance of our fulfillment of performance obligations. Contract liabilities convert to revenue as we perform our obligations under the contract.

During the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023, we recognized revenue of $~~8.3~~4.0 million and $~~35.2~~20.8 million,, respectively, for which the contract liability was recorded in a prior period.

During the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2022, we recognized revenue of $~~6.9~~8.3 million and $~~31.7~~26.9 million,, respectively, for which the contract liability was recorded in a prior period.

The transaction price for services provided under our customer contracts reflects our best estimates of the amount of consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for providing goods and services to our customers. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate transaction price to each performance obligation identified in a contract on a relative standalone selling price basis. For contracts in which we receive noncash consideration, such as in the form of a customer’s equity securities, we utilize the quoted market price for such noncash consideration to determine the transaction price. We generally determine relative standalone selling prices based on the price observed in the customer contract for each distinct performance obligation. If observable standalone selling prices are not available, we may estimate the applicable standalone selling price based on the pricing of other comparable services or on a price that we believe the market is willing to pay for the applicable service.

In determining the transaction price, we also considered the different sources of variable consideration including, but not limited to, discounts, credits, refunds, price concessions or other similar items. We have included in the transaction price some or all of an amount of variable consideration, utilizing the most likely method, only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The actual amount of consideration ultimately received may differ.

In addition, our customer contracts generally include provisions entitling us to a cancellation or postponement fee when a customer cancels or postpones its commitments prior to our initiation of services, therefore not utilizing their reserved capacity. The determination of such cancellation and postponement fees are based on the terms stated in the related customer contract but are generally considered substantive for accounting purposes and create an enforceable right and obligation due to us when the cancellation or postponement occurs. Accordingly, we recognize such fees, subject to variable consideration, as revenue upon the cancellation or postponement date utilizing the most likely method.

Management may be required to exercise judgement in estimating revenue to be recognized. Judgement is required in identifying performance obligations, estimating the transaction price, estimating the stand-alone selling prices of identified performance obligations, estimating variable consideration, and estimating the progress towards the satisfaction of performance obligations. If actual results in the future vary from our estimates, the estimates will be adjusted, which will affect revenues in the period that such variances become known.

During the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023, ~~we recognized revenue of $~~3~~.0 million for changes in estimates for variable consideration under a contract where uncertainties have been resolved. During the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022,~~ changes in estimates for variable consideration resulted in a decrease in revenues of $~~1.2~~1.8 million and $~~12.4~~3.2 million,, respectively. ~~These~~The changes in estimates for variable consideration can ~~primarily~~ be attributed to an insolvent customer combined with consideration under a ~~dispute with a customer, which was recently resolved, over~~contract where uncertainties have been resolved. There were no material adjustments in estimates for variable consideration for the ~~payment of certain cancellation fees incurred in fiscal 2022~~three and ~~due to us under the terms of the contract (Note 8).~~six months ended October 31, 2022.

We apply the practical expedient available under ASC 606 that permits us not to disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, we do not have any unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts greater than one year.

Costs incurred to obtain a contract are not material. These costs are generally employee sales commissions, which are expensed as incurred and included in selling, general and administrative expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of ~~operations~~income (loss) and comprehensive ~~income.~~income (loss).

Restricted Cash

Under the terms of an operating lease related to one of our non-manufacturing facilities that was primarily utilized for office space (Note 4), we ~~are~~were required to maintain a letter of credit as ~~collateral. Accordingly, at January~~collateral during the term of the lease. As of October 31, 2023, ~~and~~no restricted cash remained pledged as collateral for the letter of credit as the associated operating lease has expired. As of April 30, ~~2022,~~2023, restricted cash of $0.4 million was pledged as collateral under the letter of credit.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same amounts shown in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):

Accounts Receivable, Net

Accounts receivable is primarily comprised of amounts owed to us for services provided under our customer contracts and are recorded at the invoiced amount net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, if necessary. We apply judgement in assessing the ultimate realization of our receivables, that includes an assessment of expected credit losses, and we estimate anour allowance for doubtful accounts based on various factors, ~~such as the~~including our historical collection experience, aging of our ~~receivables, historical experience,~~customer receivable balances, current and future economic market conditions, and the financial condition of our customers.

Based on our analysis of our accounts receivable balance as of October 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023, we determined an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively, was deemed necessary.

Inventory

Inventory consists of raw materials inventory and is valued at the lower of cost, determined by the first-in, first-out method, or net realizable value. We periodically review raw materials inventory for potential impairment and adjust inventory to its net realizable value based on the estimate of future use and reduce the carrying value of inventory as deemed necessary.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related asset, which are generally as follows:

Schedule of estimated useful lives of property
Description		Estimated Useful Life
Leasehold improvements		Shorter of estimated useful life or lease term
Laboratory and manufacturing equipment		5 – 1015 years
Computer equipment and software		3 – 5 years
Furniture, fixtures and office equipment		5 – 10 years

Costs for property and equipment not yet placed into service have been capitalized as construction-in-progress. These costs are primarily related to equipment and leasehold improvements associated with our manufacturing facilities and will be depreciated in accordance with the above guidelines once placed into service. Interest costs incurred during construction of major capital projects are capitalized as construction-in-progress until the underlying asset is ready for its intended use, at which point the interest costs are amortized as depreciation expense over the life of the underlying asset. Interest capitalized as construction-in-progress for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023 was $~~0.1~~ 0.2 million and $~~0.4~~0.3 million,, respectively. No ~~interest was~~Interest capitalized as construction-in-progress was de minimis for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2022. All of our property and equipment are located in the United States. Property and equipment consist of the following (in thousands):

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Our operating leases with a term greater than one year are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities, less current portion in our consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date, based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the net present value of lease payments, we use our incremental borrowing rate which represents an estimated rate of interest that we would have to pay to borrow equivalent funds on a collateralized basis at the lease commencement date.

Our operating leases may include options to extend the lease which are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise a renewal option. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.

Our finance ~~lease~~leases with a term greater than one year isare included as ~~an asset~~assets within property and equipment, net and a lease liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments is included in other current liabilities and finance lease liabilities, less current portion in our consolidated balance sheets. The present value of the finance lease payments is calculated using the implicit interest rate in the lease. Finance lease ROU assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of the asset and the carrying amount of the lease liability is adjusted to reflect interest, which is recorded as interest expense.

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheets and lease expense for these short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components.

Impairment

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with authoritative guidance for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for events or changes in circumstances that indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. If such events or changes in circumstances arise, we compare the carrying amount of the long-lived assets to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the long-lived assets. If the long-lived assets are determined to be impaired, any excess of the carrying value of the long-lived assets over its estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment loss. For the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no indicators of impairment of the value of our long-lived assets and no cumulative impairment losses were recognized as of ~~January~~October 31, 2023.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock options, restricted stock units, performance stock units and other stock-based awards granted under our equity compensation plans in accordance with the authoritative guidance of ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The estimated fair value of stock options granted to employees in exchange for services is measured at the grant date, using a fair ~~value based~~value-based method, such as a Black-Scholes option valuation model, and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. The fair value of restricted stock units and performance stock units is measured at the grant date based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant. For restricted stock units, the fair value is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. For performance stock units, which are subject to performance conditions, the fair value is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods when the achievement of such performance condition is determined to be probable. If a performance condition is not determined to be probable or is not met, no stock-based compensation expense is recognized, and any previously recognized expense is reversed. Forfeitures are recognized as a reduction of stock-based compensation expense as they occur.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs related to convertible senior notes are recorded as a deduction that is netted against the principal value of the debt and are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual term of the debt (Note 3).

Debt issuance costs related to the revolving credit facility are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet and are amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the revolving credit facility (Note 3).

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Comprehensive income (loss) is equal to our net income (loss) for all periods presented.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into the following hierarchy:

	·	Level 1 – Observable inputs, such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
	·	Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as assets or liabilities whose values are based on quoted market prices in markets where trading occurs infrequently or whose values are based on quoted prices of instruments with similar attributes in active markets.
	·	Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and significant to the overall fair value measurement of the assets or liabilities; therefore, requiring the company to develop its own valuation techniques and assumptions.

As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and April 30, ~~2022, we did not have any~~2023, our Level ~~2 or Level 3~~1 financial assets ~~and~~consisted of our cash equivalents ~~of $50.8 million~~ ~~and $116.3 million, respectively, were~~ invested in money market funds ~~with one major commercial bank~~of $21.6 million and $28.7 million, respectively, and our other current assets related to investments in equity securities of $7.5 million and $0, respectively. Our Level 1 financial assets are carried at a fair value based on quoted market prices for identical securities (Level 1 input). We did not have any Level 2 or Level 3 financial assets as of October 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023.

We consider the fair value of our convertible senior notes to be a Level 2 financial liability due to limited trading activity of the convertible senior ~~convertible~~ notes (Note 3). We did not have any other Level 2 or Level 3 financial liabilities as of ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and April 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

Recently Adopted Accounting ~~Standards Not Yet Adopted~~Standard

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses of Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). The standard ~~changes~~amends the ~~methodology for measuring~~impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses onfor most financial ~~instruments~~assets and ~~the timing of when such losses are recorded.

Note 3 – Debt (as restated)

Convertible Senior Notes Due 2026

In March 2021, we issued $143.8 million in aggregate principal amount of 1.25% exchangeable senior notes due 2026 (“~~Convertible~~2026 Notes”) in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The net proceeds we received from the issuance of ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes was $138.5 million,, after deducting initial purchaser discounts and other debt issuance related expenses of $5.3 ~~million~~. million.

The ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes are senior unsecured obligations and accrue interest at a rate of 1.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year. The ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes mature on March 15, 2026, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased by us or converted at the option of the holders. The ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes are convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the indenture (the ~~“Indenture”~~“2026 Notes Indenture”) governing the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes.

The initial conversion rate for the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes is approximately 47.1403 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $21.21 per share of our common stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events in accordance with the terms of the 2026 Notes Indenture. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert their ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes in connection with such a fundamental change, as defined in the 2026 Notes Indenture.

Holders of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes may convert their ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding September 15, 2025, only under the following circumstances: (1) ~~During~~during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ~~ended~~ending July 31, 2021, if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) ~~During~~during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price (as defined in the 2026 Notes Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the exchange rate on each such trading day; (3) Ifif we call any or all of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; and (4) ~~Upon~~upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as described in the 2026 Notes Indenture.

On or after September 15, 2025, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders at their option may convert their ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

We may not redeem the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes prior to March 20, 2024. On or after March 20, 2024, the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes are redeemable for cash, whole or in part, at our option, if the last reported sale price of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the 2026 Notes Indenture), holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the redemption date.

The 2026 Notes Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes may declare the entire principal of all the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to be immediately due and payable.

As ~~of January 31, 2023, the conditions allowing holders~~described in Note 1, on February 29, 2024, as a result of the ~~Convertible~~Event of Default, a holder of at least 25% aggregate principal amount of 2026 Notes declared 100% of the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the 2026 Notes to ~~convert had not been met~~be due and ~~therefore,~~payable immediately.

Refer also to Note 10, Subsequent Events, for further information regarding the ~~Convertible Notes are classified as a long-term liability on~~subsequent repurchase and payoff of the ~~unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at January 31, 2023 and April 30, 2022.~~2026 Notes.

The net carrying amount of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes is as follows (in thousands):

Net carrying amount	$	140,359		$	139,577		$	141,154		$	140,623

As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, the estimated fair value of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes was approximately $~~147.7 million~~116.9 .million. The fair value was determined based on the last actively traded price per $100 of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes for the period ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023 (Level 2).

The effective annual interest rate of the 2026 Notes for the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022 was 2.31%.

Capped Call Transactions

In connection with the issuance of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Calls”) with certain financial institution counterparties (the “Option Counterparties”). We used $12.8 million of the net proceeds from the issuance of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes to pay the cost of the Capped Calls. The Capped Calls cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the aggregate number of shares of our common stock that initially underlie the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes, and are generally expected to reduce the potential dilution of our common stock upon any conversion of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap, based on the cap price of the Capped Calls. The cap share price of the Capped Calls is approximately $28.02 per share, which represents a premium of 75% over the last reported sale price of our common stock on March 9, 2021 and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Calls. However, there would nevertheless be dilution upon conversion of the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes to the extent that such market price exceeds the capped share price as measured under the terms of the Capped Calls.

We evaluated the Capped Calls under ASC 815-10 and determined that they should be accounted for as a separate transaction from the ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes and that the Capped Calls met the criteria for equity classification. Therefore, the cost of $12.8 million to purchase the Capped Calls was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in ~~capital in the consolidated balance sheet at April 30, 2021.~~capital. The Capped Calls will not be subsequently remeasured as long as the conditions for equity classification continue to be met. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and April 30, ~~2022,~~2023, there were no conversions of our ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes, and therefore, there was no activity with respect to the Capped Calls. We believe the conditions for equity classification continue to be met as of ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and April 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

As described in Note 10, Subsequent Events, during March 2024, in connection with our repurchase and payoff of the remaining balance of the 2026 Notes we entered into transactions to unwind all of our Capped Calls. As a result, we received $1.3 million in net proceeds from the unwinding of the Capped Calls.

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 14, 2023, we entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and letter of credit issuer (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $50 million and (ii) a borrowing base calculated as the sum of (a) 80% of the value of certain of our eligible accounts receivable, plus (b) up to 100% of the value of eligible cash collateral. The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all our assets.

On October 27, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement which, among other things, (i) extends the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility to October 25, 2024, (ii) amends the applicable interest rate applied to loans under the Revolving Credit Facility as described below, and (iii) increases the aggregate amount of indebtedness we can incur at any one time for fixed or capital assets. Other than the foregoing, the material terms of the Credit Facility remain unchanged.

As of October 31, 2023, there were no outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility.

As a result of the Acceleration Event associated with the 2026 Notes (Note 1), such occurrence resulted in a cross-default under our Credit Agreement. On March 12, 2024, we entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement which, among other things, (i) waives the events of default under the Credit Agreement as a result of the acceleration of our 2026 Notes, (ii) permits the issuance of our 2029 Notes and the repayment of our 2026 Notes (Note 10) and (iii) adjusts the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement.

Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at either a term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate for a specified interest period plus a SOFR adjustment (equal to 0.10%) plus a margin of 1.60% or base rate plus a margin of 0.60% at our option. Interest on any outstanding loans is due and payable monthly and the principal balance is due at maturity. In addition, we pay a quarterly unused revolving line facility fee of 0.25% per annum on the average unused facility.

The Credit Agreement includes certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on mergers, consolidations and sales of assets, limitations on liens, limitations on certain restricted payments and investments, limitations on transactions with affiliates and limitations on incurring additional indebtedness. In addition, the Credit Agreement, as amended, requires maintenance of a minimum consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, of $15 million for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters as measured at the end of each fiscal quarter. As of October 31, 2023, we were in compliance with the Credit Agreement’s financial covenant.

The Credit Agreement, as amended, also provides for certain customary events of defaults, including, among others, failure to make payments, breach of representations and warranties, and default of covenants.

Note 4 – Leases

We ~~currently~~ lease certain office, manufacturing, laboratory and warehouse space located in Orange County, California under operating lease agreements. Our leased facilities have original lease terms ranging from 7 to 12 years, contain multi-year renewal options, and scheduled rent increases of 3% on either an annual or biennial basis. ~~A multi-year~~Multi-year renewal ~~option was~~options were included in determining the right-of-use asset and lease liability for ~~one~~each of our leases as we considered it reasonably certain that we would exercise such renewal ~~option.~~options. In addition, certain of our leases provide for periods of free rent, lessor improvements and tenant improvement allowances, of which certain of these improvements have been classified as leasehold improvements and/or are being amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvements or the remaining ~~life~~term of the lease.

Certain of our operating facility leases require us to pay property taxes, insurance and common area maintenance. While these payments are not included as part of our lease liabilities, they are recognized as variable lease cost in the period they are incurred.

We also lease certain manufacturing equipment under finance lease agreements that have terms ranging from 5 to 7 years.

Performance Stock Units

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors grants PSUs to our executives. The PSUs are subject to annual vesting over three consecutive fiscal year performance periods with the first one-third vesting on April 30 of the year following the grant date, and each successive one-third vesting on April 30 of the following two years respectively (each a “Performance Period”). Each PSU that vests represent the right to receive one share of our common stock. The number of shares that will vest for each Performance Period, if any, is based upon the attainment of certain predetermined financial metrics for each such Performance Period. Depending on the actual financial metrics achieved relative to the target financial metrics for such Performance Periods, the number of PSUs issued could range from 0% to 200% of the target amount. The number of granted shares included in the table below is based on a maximum 200% achievement of each financial metric during each Performance Period (the “Maximum Performance Target”). If a financial metric is achieved at a rate below the Maximum Performance Target, or is not achieved, the corresponding ~~portion~~portions of the PSUs that do not vest are forfeited.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Avid Bioservices, Inc. 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) is a stockholder-approved plan under which employees can purchase shares of our common stock, based on a percentage of their compensation, subject to certain limits. The purchase price per share is equal to the lower of 85% of the fair market value of our common stock on the first trading day of the six-month offering period or on the last trading day of the six-month offering period. During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023, a total of ~~68,646~~46,224 shares of our common stock were purchased under the ESPP at a ~~weighted average~~ purchase price ~~per share~~ of $~~12.22~~11.46. per share. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, we had ~~963,316~~917,092 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and 2022 was comprised of the following (in thousands):

Share-based compensation expense

As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, the total estimated unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options and RSUs was $~~1.6~~0.7 million and $~~16.6~~20.3 million,, respectively. These costs are expected to be recognized over weighted average vesting periods of ~~1.2~~0.73 and ~~2.8~~2.87 years, respectively.

As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, there was $119.7.0 million of total estimated unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested PSUs associated with the Performance Periods ending April 30, ~~2023,~~ 2024, 2025 and ~~2025. These costs are~~2026. This cost is expected to be recognized over the weighted average vesting period of ~~1.1~~1.22 years, however, we will assess the likelihood of achieving the predetermined financial metrics associated with each Performance Period on a quarterly basis and the expense recognized, if any, will be adjusted accordingly.

Note 6 - Deferred Compensation Plan

In July 2023, our Board of Directors approved and adopted the Avid Bioservices, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the “DC Plan”). The DC Plan allows non-employee directors and certain highly compensated employees to defer a portion of their base compensation, cash bonuses, and certain restricted stock unit and performance stock unit awards. As of October 31, 2023, contributions to the DC Plan were not material and are included in accrued compensation and benefits on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at October 31, 2023.

Note 7 – Income Taxes

We are subject to taxation in the United States and various states jurisdictions in which we conduct our business.

Our tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. On a quarterly basis, we update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated annual tax rate changes, we make a cumulative adjustment in that quarter.

The ~~tax expense~~provision for income taxes recorded for the ~~third quarter of fiscal year~~three and six months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022 differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% due primarily to the tax impact of ~~state income taxes,~~ stock-based compensation, non-deductible officers’ compensation, and transportation fringe benefits.

For the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023, we recorded an income tax ~~expense~~benefit of $~~2.1~~2.4 million $3.0 ~~and $0.7~~ million,, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately ~~82.6~~20.0% and ~~44.9~~20.5%, respectively. For the three and six months ended October 31, 2022, we recorded an income tax benefit of $2.9 million and $2.3 million, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of 84.8% and 157.1%, respectively.

We have no material uncertain tax ~~positions~~position liabilities as of ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023. It is our policy to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in interest expense and other income (expense), net, respectively, in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of ~~operations~~income (loss) and comprehensive ~~income.~~income (loss). There was no accrued interest or penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as of ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023.

Note 78 – Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing our net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing our net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period plus the potential dilutive effects of stock options, unvested RSUs, ~~and~~unvested PSUs, shares of common stock expected to be issued under our ESPP, and ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes.

The potential dilutive effect of stock options, unvested RSUs, ~~and~~unvested PSUs, and shares of common stock expected to be issued under our ESPP during the period are calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method but are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive. The potential dilutive effect of our ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes is calculated using the if-converted method assuming the conversion of our ~~Convertible~~2026 Notes as of the earliest period reported or at the date of issuance, if later, but are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive. A reconciliation of the numerators and the denominators of the basic and dilutive net income (loss) per common share computations are as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Note 89 – Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are at times subject to various legal proceedings and disputes. We make provisions for liabilities when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Such provisions, if any, are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impact of any settlement negotiations, judicial and administrative rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. We currently are not a party to any legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Note 10 – Subsequent Events

~~Humanigen Arbitration~~Acceleration of Convertible Senior Notes Due 2026

~~On December 17, 2021, we filed a Demand for Arbitration claiming more than $20.5 million~~As described in damages against Humanigen, Inc. (“Humanigen”) with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) entitled, Avid Bioservices, Inc. v. Humanigen, Inc. (AAA Case No. 01-21-0018-0523). The Demand contains three claims for: (1) breach of contract concerning the process development and manufacturing master services agreement (“MSA”); (2) anticipatory breach of contract concerning the capacity expansion and contribution/commitment letter (“Letter Agreement”); and (3) trade libel and commercial disparagement. On January 6, 2022, Humanigen filed an Answer to our Demand, denying the allegations and asserting affirmative defenses. On JulyNote 1, 2022, Humanigen filed its counterclaims against us in the form of a complaint in the Orange County Superior Court (Case No. 30-2022-01268184) alleging three claims for (1) breach of the MSA seeking return or reimbursement of the amounts Humanigen paid us before cancelling the MSA, (2) declaratory relief that Humanigen has no remaining obligations under the Letter Agreement, and (3) unfair business practices. On July 19, 2022, we filed a motion with the state court to compel all claims by Humanigen against us to arbitration before the AAA. On October 17, 2022, the state court granted our motion to compel all of Humanigen’s claims against us to arbitration and denied Humanigen’s motion to stay the arbitration. Ason February 29, 2024, as a result of the ~~court having granted our motion, on November 3, 2022, Humanigen filed its Demand for Arbitration realleging the breach~~Event of Default, a holder of at least 25% aggregate principal amount of 2026 Notes declared 100% of the ~~MSA~~principal amount of, and ~~unfair business practices claims which it had initially filed in state court. On November 10, 2022, we filed an Answer~~accrued and unpaid interest on, the 2026 Notes to ~~Humanigen’s Demand, denying the allegations~~be due and ~~asserting affirmative defenses. On February 21, 2023, we entered into a Confidential Settlement~~payable immediately.

Sale and ~~Mutual Releases Agreement with Humanigen resolving the arbitration proceeding and all disputes between the parties.~~Issuance of Convertible Senior Notes Due 2029

On March 12, 2024, we completed a private offering (the “Offering”) of $160.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.00% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. We received net proceeds from the Offering of approximately $153.5 million, after deducting placement agent’s commissions and other debt issuance related expenses of approximately $6.5 million.

Subsequent to the closing of the Offering, during March 2024, we used approximately $146.1 million of the net proceeds to (i) repurchase for cash, $141.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes (Note 3) in privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of the 2026 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest of $2.3 million, and (ii) repay in full, the remaining outstanding 2026 Notes balance by depositing the required payoff amount of $2.8 million, representing principal and accrued and unpaid interest, with the trustee under the 2026 Notes Indenture, following which no 2026 Notes remained outstanding.

The 2029 Notes are senior unsecured obligations and accrue interest at a rate of 7.00% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2024. The 2029 Notes mature on March 1, 2029, unless earlier repurchased by us or converted at the option of the holders. The 2029 Notes are convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the indenture (the “2029 Notes Indenture”) governing the 2029 Notes.

The initial conversion rate for the 2029 Notes is approximately 101.1250 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $9.89 per share of our common stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events in accordance with the terms of the 2029 Notes Indenture. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert their 2029 Notes in connection with such a fundamental change, as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture.

Holders of the 2029 Notes may convert their 2029 Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding September 1, 2028, only under the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending July 31, 2024 (and only during such fiscal quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for the 2029 Notes on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price (as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of the 2029 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as described in the 2029 Notes Indenture.

On or after September 1, 2028 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders at their option may convert all or any portion of their 2029 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. We may not redeem the 2029 Notes prior to the March 1, 2029 maturity date.

If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the 2029 Notes Indenture), holders may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2029 Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the fundamental change repurchase date.

The 2029 Notes Indenture includes customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, if we fail to comply with any of our other agreements contained in the 2029 Notes or the 2029 Notes Indenture for 60 days after receipt of written notice of such failure from the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2029 Notes may declare the entire principal of all the 2029 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to be immediately due and payable.

Capped Call Transactions

During March 2024, in connection with our repurchase and payoff of the remaining balance of the 2026 Notes, as further described above, we entered into transactions to unwind all of our Capped Calls (Note 3). As a result, we received $1.3 million in net proceeds from the unwinding of the Capped Calls.

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 12, 2024, we entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement (Note 3) which, among other things, (i) waives the events of default under the Credit Agreement as a result of the acceleration of the 2026 Notes, (ii) permits the issuance of the 2029 Notes and the repayment of the 2026 Notes and (iii) adjusts certain financial covenant in the Credit Agreement.

This milestone marked the completion of our two-phased approach to the construction of a world-class, single purpose-built cell and gene therapy development and CGMP manufacturing facility.

Facility ~~Expansions~~Expansion

During fiscal year 2021, we announced plans for a two-phased expansion of our Myford facility. The first phase, which expanded the production capacity of our Myford facility by adding an additional downstream processing suite, was completed in January 2022. The second phase, which was recently completed in March 2023, further expands our capacity with the addition of a second manufacturing train, including both upstream and downstream processing suites. This phase is now operational, and we are actively scheduling new business into the suites. We estimate that as of January 31, 2023, the remaining cost associated with the completion of our Myford facility expansion is approximately $6 million.

~~In October 2021,~~2022, we announced plans to expand our CDMO service offerings into viral vector development and manufacturing services for the rapidly growing cell and gene therapy (“CGT”) market. This expansion ~~will consist~~consisted of a two-phased approach ~~including constructing~~to the construction of a world-class, single purpose-built CGT development and CGMP manufacturing facility in Costa Mesa, California (the “CGT Facility”). In June 2022, we completed the first phase with the opening of our new analytical and process development laboratories. ~~This phase is operational and~~In October 2023, we ~~have been generating revenue from these laboratories since~~completed the second ~~quarter of fiscal 2023.

In June 2022, we announced plans to further expand the process development capacity of our mammalian cell culture services, by adding new suites within our existing process development laboratory space. This expansion is expected to be online by the end of the first calendar quarter of 2023. We estimate that as of January 31, 2023 the remaining cost to complete our PD construction is approximately $2 million.

~~Upon~~ completion of ~~these~~this expansion ~~projects,~~project, we estimate that our combined facilities will have the potential to bring our total revenue generating capacity to up to approximately $400 million annually, depending on the mix of future customer projects.

Performance and Financial Measures

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures. The key indicators of the financial condition and operating performance of our business are revenues, gross profit (loss), selling, general and administrative expenses, operating income (loss), interest expense, other income (expense), net, and ~~interest expense.~~income tax expense (benefit).

We intend for this discussion to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our consolidated financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those consolidated financial statements from period to period and the primary factors that accounted for those changes.

Revenues

Revenues are derived from services provided under our customer contracts and are disaggregated into manufacturing and process development revenue streams. Manufacturing revenue generally represents revenue from the manufacturing of customer products derived from mammalian cell culture covering clinical through commercial manufacturing runs. Process development revenue generally represents revenue from services associated with the custom development of a manufacturing process and analytical methods for a customer’s product.

Gross Profit (Loss)

Gross profit (loss) is equal to revenues less cost of revenues. Cost of revenues reflects the direct cost of labor, overhead and material costs. Direct labor costs include compensation, benefits, recruiting fees, and stock-based compensation within the manufacturing, process and analytical development, quality assurance, quality control, validation, supply chain, project management and facilities functions. Overhead costs primarily include the rent, common area maintenance, utilities, property taxes, security, materials and supplies, software, small equipment and deprecation costs incurred at all of our manufacturing and laboratory locations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses are composed of corporate-level expenses, including compensation, benefits, recruiting fees, and stock-based compensation of corporate functions such as executive management, finance and accounting, business development, legal, human resources, information technology, and other centralized services. SG&A expenses also include corporate legal fees, audit and accounting fees, investor relation expenses, non-employee director fees, corporate facility related expenses, and other expenses relating to our general management, administration, and business development activities.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists of interest costs related to our outstanding convertible senior notes, revolving credit facility and finance leases, including amortization of debt issuance costs.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net primarily consists of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents, net of gains (losses) from the disposal of long-live assets.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

We are subject to taxation in the United States and various states jurisdictions in which we conduct our business. We prepare our income tax provision based on our interpretation of the income tax accounting rules and each jurisdiction’s enacted tax laws and regulations. For additional information refer to Note 7, Income Taxes, of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In addition, the same period in the prior year included a margin benefit from unutilized capacity fees. Excluding all of these factors, our third quarter gross margin was slightly higher than the same prior year period.

We expect our gross profit will continue to be impacted in the short-term as we continue the hiring of personnel and incur additional facility and equipment related costs in-line with our anticipated growth.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses were ~~$7.1~~$6.6 million for the three months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023 compared to ~~$5.8~~$6.8 million for the same period in the prior year, ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$1.3~~approximately $0.3 million, or ~~22%~~4%.

As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses for the three months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023 and 2022 were ~~19%~~26% and 20%, respectively.

Operating Loss

Operating loss was $11.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2023 compared to $2.7 million for the same period in the prior year. This $8.5 million increase in year-over-year operating loss can be attributed to the $8.8 million decrease in gross profit described above, offset by the $0.3 million decrease in SG&A expenses described above.

Interest Expense (as restated)

Interest expense was $0.8 million for the three months ended October 31, 2023 compared to $0.9 million for the same period in the prior year. This $0.1 million decrease can primarily be attributed to a $0.1 million decrease in interest expense associated with our 2026 Notes. For further information regarding the 2026 Notes, see Note 3 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Income Tax Benefit (as restated)

Income tax benefit was $2.4 million for the three months ended October 31, 2023 compared to $2.9 million for the same period in the prior year. This $0.5 million decrease in income tax benefit can primarily be attributed to our pre-tax net loss for the current year period. Our effective tax rate for the current year period was approximately 20.0% and was computed based on the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% adjusted primarily for the tax impact of stock-based compensation, non-deductible officers’ compensation, and transportation fringe benefits.

Revenues

Revenues for the six months ended October 31, 2023 were $63.1 million compared to $71.4 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $8.3 million, or 12%. The decrease in revenues was primarily attributed to decreases in manufacturing runs and process development services from early-stage programs, combined with a reduction of revenue for changes in estimated variable consideration under a contract where uncertainties have been resolved. The following table compares revenues by revenue stream for the six months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):

	Six Months Ended October 31,

Total revenues	$	63,121	$	71,449	$	(8,328	)

Gross Profit (Loss)

Gross loss for the six months ended October 31, 2023 was $0.6 million (negative 1% gross margin) compared to a gross profit of $13.3 million (19% gross margin) for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in gross margin percentage during the six months ended October 31, 2023, as compared to the same prior year period was primarily driven by lower manufacturing volumes and costs related to expansions of both our capacity and our technical capabilities. This included adding staff and associated overhead, including depreciation expense, that we believe will provide critical capacity for near and medium-term growth. Margins during the current year period were also impacted by (i) the decision to defer a customer’s PPQ campaign until after our annual maintenance shut-down that occurred during the quarter, (ii) a reduction of revenues for changes in estimated variable consideration under a contract where uncertainties have been resolved, (iii) a terminated project relating to the insolvency of one of our smaller customers, and (iv) a delay in our ability to recognize revenues of a customer product pending the implementation of a process change.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses were $12.8 million for the six months ended October 31, 2023 compared to $13.2 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of approximately $0.4 million, or 3%. The net decrease in SG&A expenses was attributed to the following components:

	$ millions
Decrease in consulting and other professional fees	$	(0.4	)
Decrease in legal and accounting fees		(0.2	)
Net increase in all other SG&A expenses		0.2
Total decrease in SG&A expenses	$	(0.4	)

As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses for the six months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022 were 20% and 18%, respectively. SG&A expenses are generally not directly proportional to revenues, but we expect such expenses to increase over time to support the needs of our growing company.

~~Income tax expense~~

Other income, net was ~~$2.1~~$0.4 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023 compared to no income tax expense for the same period in the prior year. The increase in income tax expense can be attributed to the recording of net income tax expense in the current year period whereas in the prior year period there was no income tax expense due to a full valuation allowance being in place.

~~Nine Months Ended January 31, 2023 Compared to Nine Months Ended January 31, 2022~~

~~Revenues~~

~~Revenues for the nine months ended January 31, 2023 were $109.5 million compared to $88.4~~$0.2 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of ~~approximately $21.1 million, or 24%. The~~$0.2 million. This year-over-year increase in revenues can primarily be attributed to increases in manufacturing runs, process development services provided to new customers, and revenue recognized in the current year period for changes in estimated variable consideration under a contract where uncertainties have been resolved. The increase in revenues was attributed to the following components of our revenue streams:

$ millions
Net increase in manufacturing revenues $ 17.4
Net increase in process development revenues 3.7
Total increase in revenues $ 21.1

~~Gross Profit~~

Gross profit for the nine months ended January 31, 2023 was $23.1 million (21% gross margin) compared to $29.7 million (34% gross margin) for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $6.6 million. The decrease in gross profit can primarily be attributed to increases in compensation and benefit related expenses and facility and equipment related costs, partially offset by increased revenues. During the nine months ended January 31, 2023 as compared with the prior year period, our labor, overhead and depreciation expenses increased primarily due to the hiring of personnel and additional facility and equipment related costs in anticipation of the commissioning of our mammalian and cell and gene therapy CGMP facility expansions. This decrease in margin was partially offset by a current year period benefit to margin from revenue associated with a change in variable consideration under a contract where uncertainties have been resolved. In addition, the same period in the prior year included a margin benefit from unutilized capacity fees. Excluding all of these factors, our year-to-date period gross margin was approximately in-line with the same prior year period.

~~Selling, General and Administrative Expenses~~

SG&A expenses were $20.3 million for the nine months ended January 31, 2023 compared to $15.3 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $5.0 million, or 33%.

Total increase in SG&A expenses $ 5.0

~~Operating Income~~

Operating income was $2.8 million for the nine months ended January 31, 2023 compared to $14.4 million for the same period in the prior year. This $11.6 million decrease in year-over-year operating income can be attributed to the $6.6 million decrease in gross profit described above combined with a $5.0 million increase in SG&A expenses.

~~Interest Expense~~

Interest expense was $1.8 million for the nine months ended January 31, 2023 compared to $2.1 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $0.3 million. The decrease can primarily be attributed to interest expense of $0.4 million capitalized as construction-in-progress during the current year period compared to no interest capitalized during the same prior year period.

~~Other Income (Expense), net~~

~~OI&E was income of $0.6 million for the nine months ended January 31, 2023 compared to expense of $0.2 million for the same period in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are our existing cash and cash equivalents on ~~hand and cash flows generated from operations.~~hand. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of ~~$59.9~~$31.4 million. Further, as of October 31, 2023, there was $143.8 million aggregate principal outstanding on our 2026 Notes, which due to an Event of Default (as further described in Note 1 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements), are classified as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheets at October 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023.

On February 29, 2024, a holder of at least 25% of the 2026 Notes declared 100% of the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the 2026 Notes to be due and payable immediately (as further described in Note 1 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements).

On March 12, 2024, we completed a private offering (the “Offering”) of $160.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.00% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (as further described in Note 10 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). We received net proceeds from the Offering of approximately $153.5 million, after deducting placement agent’s commissions and other debt issuance related expenses of approximately $6.5 million.

Subsequent to the closing of the Offering, during March 2024, we used approximately $146.1 million of the net proceeds to (i) repurchase for cash, $141.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes in privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of the 2026 Notes plus accrued and unpaid principal of $2.3 million, and (ii) repay in full, the remaining outstanding 2026 Notes balance by depositing the required payoff amount of $2.8 million, representing principal and accrued and unpaid interest, with the trustee under the indenture for the 2026 Notes, following which no 2026 Notes remained outstanding (as further described in Note 10 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements).

As a result, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents on hand and our anticipated cash flows from operating activities will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months from the date of this ~~Quarterly~~Amended Report.

If our existing cash and cash equivalents on hand and our anticipated cash flows from operations are not sufficient to support our operations or capital requirements, ~~including our mammalian and cell and gene therapy facility expansions,~~ then we may, ~~need~~in the future, draw on our existing revolving credit facility (which was amended on March 12, 2024 to, among other things, waive the events of default under the revolving credit facility as a result of the aforementioned acceleration of the 2026 Notes), which is subject to covenant compliance and availability (as described in Note 3 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements) and/or obtain additional ~~equity~~debt or ~~debt~~equity financing to fund our future ~~operations and/or such expansions.~~operations. We may raise these funds at the appropriate time, accessing the form of capital that we determine is most appropriate considering the markets available to us and their respective costs of capital, such as through the issuance of debt or through the public offering of securities. These financings may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Our ability to raise additional capital in the equity and debt markets is dependent on several factors including, but not limited to, the market demand for our common stock. The market demand or liquidity of our common stock is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, our financial results, economic and market conditions, and global financial crises and economic downturns, which may cause extreme volatility and disruptions in capital and credit markets. In addition, even if we are able to raise additional capital, it may not be at a price or on terms that are favorable to us, or it may contain restrictions on the operations of our business.

Our leased facilities have original lease terms ranging from 7 to 12 years, contain multi-year renewal options, and scheduled rent increases of 3% on either an annual or biennial basis.

During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023, our capital expenditures were ~~$52.8~~$21.6 million, and ~~$24.0~~$8.1 million were incurred and accrued as of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, for a total of ~~approximately $76.7~~$29.7 million. We currently anticipate that our total capital expenditures for fiscal ~~2023~~year 2024 will be approximately ~~$90~~$32 million.

Revolving Credit Facility

In March 2023, we entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and letter of credit issuer, which was subsequently amended on October 27, 2023 and March 12, 2024 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $50 million and (ii) a borrowing base calculated as the sum of (a) 80% of the value of certain of our eligible accounts receivable, plus (b) up to 100% of the value of eligible cash collateral. The Revolving Credit Facility will mature on October 25, 2024, and is secured by substantially all of our assets. As of October 31, 2023, there were no outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility.

The Credit Agreement includes certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on mergers, consolidations and sales of assets, limitations on liens, limitations on certain restricted payments and investments, limitations on transactions with affiliates and limitations on incurring additional indebtedness. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires maintenance of a minimum consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, of $15 million for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters as measured at the end of each fiscal quarter. As of October 31, 2023, we were in compliance with the Credit Agreement’s financial covenant.

The Credit Agreement also provides for certain customary events of defaults, including, among others, failure to make payments, breach of representations and warranties, and default of covenants. For additional information regarding our Credit Agreement, see Note 3 of the notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. We review our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for our judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may vary from what we anticipate and different assumptions or estimates about the future could change our reported results. During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023, there were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies as previously disclosed by us in Part II, Item 7 of ~~our Annual Report on~~the Amended Form ~~10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022.~~10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to us, please refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the accompanying notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial ~~statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.~~statements.

Backlog

Our backlog represents, as of a point in time, expected future revenue from contracted ~~customer~~ work not yet completed. As of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, our backlog was approximately ~~$176~~$199 million, as compared to approximately ~~$153~~$191 million as of April 30, ~~2022.~~2023. While we anticipate ~~the majority~~a significant amount of our backlog will be recognized as revenue over the next ~~twelve (12) months,~~five fiscal quarters, our backlog is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that a customer timely cancels its commitments prior to our initiation of services, in which case we may be required to refund some or all of the amounts paid to us in advance under those canceled commitments; (ii) the risk that a customer may experience delays in its program(s) or otherwise, which could result in the postponement of anticipated services; (iii) the risk that we may not successfully execute on all customer projects; and (iv) the risk that commencement of customer projects may be postponed due to supply chain delays, any of which could have a negative impact on our liquidity, reported backlog and future revenues and profitability.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures ~~About~~about Market Risk

During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023, there were no material changes in the market risks described in the “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” section of ~~our Annual Report on~~the Amended Form ~~10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022.~~10-K.

Item 4.

Controls ~~And~~and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed 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 Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our ~~principal executive officer~~Chief Executive Officer and ~~principal financial officer,~~Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, our ~~principal executive officer~~Chief Executive Officer and ~~principal financial officer~~Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of ~~January~~October 31, 2023, as a result of the material weakness described below.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the lack of an effectively designed control activity in accounting for debt and related interest. Specifically, our debt internal controls did not include the periodic review of covenants, acceleration clauses, events of default, and other pertinent information in our debt agreements as of October 31, 2023.

Remediation Efforts of Material Weakness

Management, under the oversight of the Audit Committee, has designed the necessary controls to remediate the foregoing material weakness. These controls include the initial and periodic review of covenants, acceleration clauses, events of default, and other pertinent information in our debt agreements to enable management to assess whether any of these provisions impact our financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

~~There~~Except for the material weakness described above, there were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting, during the quarter ended ~~January~~October 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
