1. | Organization and Basis of Presentation |
The Company was incorporated in Nevada in 1987. In January 1994, the Company began research and development of a device for the treatment of herpes simplex. The Company, since 1995, has conducted research and development both domestically and abroad on proprietary pharmaceutical products, with the goal of growing through acquisition and development of pharmaceutical products and technology.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $134,518,102 at December 31, 2007 and expects that it will incur additional losses in the future completing the research, development and commercialization of its technologies. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that the Company will require additional financing, which it is actively pursuing, to fund operations, including continued research, development and clinical trials of the Company’s product candidates. Although management continues to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining financing on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing, operations will need to be discontinued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Principles |
Significant accounting principles followed by the Company in preparing its financial statements are as follows:
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and cash equivalents
For purposes of the balance sheets and the statements of cash flows, cash equivalents represent all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less.
Short term investments
A significant amount of our short term investments are comprised of investment grade variable rate debt obligations, which are asset-backed and categorized as available-for-sale. Accordingly, our investments in these securities are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value due to their variable interest rates, which typically reset every 28 days. Despite the long-term nature of their contractual maturities, we have the ability and intent to liquidate these securities within one year. As a result of the resetting variable rates, we had no cumulative gross unrealized or realized holding gains or losses from these investments. All income generated from these investments was recorded as interest income.
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, convertible notes payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and deferred compensation approximates fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Fixed assets
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of equipment and furniture and fixtures is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to ten years. Depreciation of buildings is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 31 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is provided on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful life or the lease term. The costs of additions and betterments are capitalized, and repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations in the periods incurred.
Long-lived assets
The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. If such assets are considered impaired, the amount of the impairment loss recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, fair value being determined based upon discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending on the nature of the asset. No such impairment losses have been recorded by the Company during 2007, 2006 or 2005.
Revenue recognition
Revenues from product sales are recognized upon delivery of products to customers, less allowances for estimated returns and discounts. Royalty revenue is recognized upon the sale of the related products, provided the royalty amounts are fixed or determinable and the amounts are considered collectible.
Revenues earned under licensing and research and development contracts are recognized in accordance with the cost-to-cost method whereby the extent of progress toward completion is measured on the cost-to-cost basis; however, revenue recognized at any point will not exceed the cash received. When the current estimates of total contract revenue and contract cost indicate a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made in the period which it becomes probable. All costs related to these agreements are expensed as incurred and classified within “Research and development” expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Also, licensing agreements typically include several elements of revenue, such as up-front payments, milestones, royalties upon sales of product, and the delivery of product and/or research services to the licensor. We follow the accounting guidance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (which superseded SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101) and EITF No. 91-6 and EITF No. 00-21 (which became effective for contracts entered into after June 2003). Non-refundable license fees received upon execution of license agreements where we have continuing involvement are deferred and recognized as revenue over the estimated performance period of the agreement. This requires management to estimate the expected term of the agreement or, if applicable, the estimated life of its licensed patents.
In addition, EITF No. 00-21 requires a company to evaluate its arrangements under which it will perform multiple revenue-generating activities. For example, a license agreement with a pharmaceutical company may involve a license, research and development activities and/or contract manufacturing. Management is required to determine if the separate components of the agreement have value on a standalone basis and qualify as separate units of accounting, whereby consideration is allocated based upon their relative “fair values” or, if not, the consideration should be allocated based upon the “residual method.” Accordingly, up-front and development stage milestone payments will be deferred and recognized as revenue over the performance period of such license agreement.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Research and development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include the cost of salaries, building costs, utilities, allocation of indirect costs, and expenses to third parties who conduct research and development, pursuant to development and consulting agreements, on behalf of the Company.
Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recorded for temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the tax rates expected to be in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Loss per common share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an antidilutive effect on per share amounts.
At December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, outstanding options to purchase 3,469,841, 3,663,421, and 5,018,880 shares of common stock, respectively, with exercise prices ranging from $0.55 to $16.25 have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as they are antidilutive. At December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, outstanding warrants to purchase 12,439,954, 20,125,027, and 11,030,550 shares of common stock, respectively, with exercise prices ranging from $0.55 to $4.04 have also been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as they are antidilutive. Promissory notes convertible into 600,000 shares of common stock in 2006 and 1,200,000 shares of common stock (see Note 6) in 2005 have also been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, as they are antidilutive. Series C 6% cumulative convertible preferred stock (see Note 9) convertible into 643,382 shares of common stock in 2005 have also been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, as it is antidilutive.
Accounting for stock based compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment”, which establishes the financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based compensation plans. SFAS 123R requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options. Under the provisions of SFAS 123R, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the entire award (generally the vesting period of the award). The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 123R as of January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective transition method. Under this transition method, stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 includes expense for all equity awards granted during the year ended December 31, 2006 and prior, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” as amended by SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure.” Also in accordance with the modified prospective transition method, prior interim and annual periods have not been restated and do not reflect the recognition of stock-based compensation cost under SFAS 123R. Since the adoption of SFAS 123R, there have been no changes to the Company’s stock compensation plans or modifications to outstanding stock-based awards which would increase the value of any awards outstanding. Compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 was based on the grant-date fair value determined in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R.
NexMed, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company accounts for stock options granted to non-employees on a fair value basis in accordance with SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services." Any options issued to non-employees are recorded in the consolidated financial statements in deferred expenses in stockholders' equity using the fair value method and then amortized to expense over the applicable service periods (See Note 8). As a result, the non-cash charge to operations for non-employee options with vesting or other performance criteria is valued each reporting period based upon changes in the fair value of the Company's common stock.
As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, the Company’s net loss and its non cash compensation expense as shown in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 is $1,095,834 and $1,358,403 more, respectively, than if the Company had continued to account for stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and its related interpretations. Basic and diluted net loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 of $(0.11) and $(0.12), respectively, is $0.01 and $0.02 more than if the Company had not adopted SFAS 123R.
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation in accordance with APB 25 and also followed the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123. Under APB 25, the Company accounted for stock-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method as allowed under SFAS 123. Under the intrinsic value method, no stock-based compensation expense had been recognized in the Company’s Statement of Operations because the exercise price of the Company’s stock options granted to employees and directors equaled the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share for year ended December 31, 2005 and illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to its stock plans:

| | | | | | | |
Total stock-based compensation expense | | $ | 1,155,832 | | $ | 1,358,403 | |
The stock-based compensation expense has not been tax-effected due to the recording of a full valuation allowance against U.S. net deferred tax assets.
The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006:
Dividend yield | 0.00% |
Risk-free yields | 1.35% - 5.02% |
Expected volatility | 80% - 103.51% |
Expected option life | 1 - 6 years |
Forfeiture rate | 6.41% |
NexMed, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Expected Volatility. The Company uses analysis of historical volatility to compute the expected volatility of its stock options.
Expected Term. The expected term is based on several factors including historical observations of employee exercise patterns during the Company’s history and expectations of employee exercise behavior in the future giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards.
Risk-Free Interest Rate. The interest rate used in valuing awards is based on the yield at the time of grant of a U.S. Treasury security with an equivalent remaining term.
Dividend Yield. The Company has never paid cash dividends, and does not currently intend to pay cash dividends, and thus has assumed a 0% dividend yield.
Pre-Vesting Forfeitures. Estimates of pre-vesting option forfeitures are based on Company experience. The Company will adjust its estimate of forfeitures over the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from such estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures will be recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the period of change and will also impact the amount of compensation expense to be recognized in future periods. The cumulative effect resulting from initially applying the provisions of SFAS 123R to nonvested equity awards was not significant.
Additional disclosures required under SFAS 123R are presented in Note 8.
Concentration of credit risk
From time to time, the Company maintains cash in bank accounts that exceed the FDIC insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its cash accounts.
Comprehensive loss
The Company has recorded comprehensive loss in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” , which requires the presentation of the components of comprehensive loss in the Company’s financial statements. Comprehensive loss is defined as the change in the Company’s equity during a financial reporting period from transactions and other circumstances from non-owner sources (including cumulative translation adjustments and unrealized gains/losses on available for sale securities). Accumulated other comprehensive loss included in the Company’s balance sheet is comprised of translation adjustments from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries and unrealized gains and losses on investment in marketable securities.
Accounting estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s most significant estimates relate to the valuation of its long-lived assets, estimated cost to complete under its research contracts, and valuation allowances for its deferred tax benefit. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Recent accounting pronouncements
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" . FAS 159 permits companies to choose to measure certain financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The standard requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected be reported in earnings. FAS 159 is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, although earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FAS 159 on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), "Business Combinations" , which replaces FASB Statement No. 141. FAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. The Statement also establishes disclosure requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. FAS 141R is effective as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of FAS 141R on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51" ("FAS 160"), which establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent's ownership interest and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. The Statement also establishes reporting requirements that provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. FAS 160 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of FAS 160 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In December 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF Issue No. 07-1, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements.” EITF 07-1 provides guidance concerning: determining whether an arrangement constitutes a collaborative arrangement within the scope of the Issue; how costs incurred and revenue generated on sales to third parties should be reported in the income statement; how an entity should characterize payments on the income statement; and what participants should disclose in the notes to the financial statements about a collaborative arrangement. The provisions of EITF 07-1 will be adopted in 2009. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting EITF 07-1 on our financial statements.
3. | Licensing and Research and Development Agreements |
On November 1, 2007, the Company signed an exclusive licensing agreement with Warner Chilcott Company, Inc., (“Warner”) for its topical alprostadil-based cream treatment for erectile dysfunction (“ED Product”). Under the agreement, Warner acquired the exclusive rights in the United States to the ED Product and will assume all further development, manufacturing, and commercialization responsibilities as well as costs. Warner agreed to pay the Company an up front payment of $500,000 and up to $12.5 million in milestone payments on the achievement of specific regulatory milestones. In addition, the Company is eligible to receive royalties in the future based upon the level of sales achieved by Warner, assuming the product is approved by the FDA.
NexMed, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company is recognizing the initial up-front payment as revenue on a straight line basis over the estimated 9 month period ending July 31, 2008 which is the remaining anticipated review time by the FDA for the Company’s new drug application filed in September 2007 for the ED Product. Pursuant to the agreement, NexMed is responsible for the regulatory approval of the ED Product. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company recognized licensing revenue of $111,111 related to the Warner agreement.
On September 15, 2005, the Company signed an exclusive global licensing agreement with Novartis International Pharmaceutical Ltd., (“Novartis”) for its anti-fungal product, NM100060. Under the agreement, Novartis acquired the exclusive worldwide rights to NM100060 and would assume all further development, regulatory, manufacturing and commercialization responsibilities as well as costs. Novartis agreed to pay the Company up to $51 million in upfront and milestone payments on the achievement of specific development and regulatory milestones, including an initial cash payment of $4 million at signing. In addition, the Company is eligible to receive royalties based upon the level of sales achieved and is entitled to receive reimbursements of third party preclinical study costs up to $3.25 million. The Company began recognizing the initial up front and preclinical reimbursement revenue from this agreement based on the cost-to-cost method over the 32-month period estimated to complete the remaining preclinical studies for NM100060. On February 16, 2007, the Novartis agreement was amended. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company is no longer obligated to complete the remaining preclinical studies for NM100060. Novartis has taken over all responsibilities related to the remaining preclinical studies. As such, the balance of deferred revenue of $1,693,917 at December 31, 2006 is being recognized as revenue on a straight line basis over the 18 month period ended June 30, 2008 which is the estimated performance period for Novartis to complete the remaining preclinical studies. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company recognized licensing revenue of $846,960 related to the Novartis agreement.
On July 1, 2004, the Company entered into a license, supply and distribution agreement with Schering AG, Germany (“Schering”). This agreement provided Schering with exclusive commercialization rights to Alprox-TD® in approximately 75 countries outside of the U.S. On June 20, 2006, Schering elected to terminate the agreement without cause. Pursuant to the agreement, Schering was obligated to pay the Company a termination fee of 500,000 Euros or approximately $627,000. This amount was received in August 2006 and is recorded as other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2006.
In October 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with a Japanese pharmaceutical company whereby NexMed would provide contract development services for a tape/patch treatment for chronic pain. The Company received $100,000 as a signing payment. In December 2005, the Company ceased all development work on this project. The $100,000 signing payment which was recorded as deferred revenue in the December 31, 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheet was recognized as revenue in 2006 when the Japanese partner agreed to and the Company completed the technology transfer of development work done to date.
Fixed assets at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were comprised of the following:

On February 27, 2002, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Y. Joseph Mo, Ph.D., that had a constant term of five years, and pursuant to which Dr. Mo served as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President. Under the employment agreement, Dr. Mo is entitled to deferred compensation in an annual amount equal to one sixth of the sum of his base salary and bonus for the 36 calendar months preceding the date on which the deferred compensation payments commence subject to certain limitations, including a vesting requirement through the date of termination, as set forth in the employment agreement. The deferred compensation is payable monthly for 180 months commencing on termination of employment. Dr. Mo’s employment was terminated as of December 15, 2005. The monthly deferred compensation payment through May 15, 2021 will be $9,158. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company has accrued $1,060,274 and $1,118,310 respectively, which is included in deferred compensation, based upon the estimated present value of the vested portion of the obligation.
6. | Convertible Notes Payable |
On December 12, 2003, the Company issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $6 million. The notes were payable in two installments of $3 million on November 30, 2006 and May 31, 2007 and were collateralized by the Company’s facility in East Windsor, New Jersey which has a carrying value of approximately $6.9 million. The notes were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price initially equal to $6.50 per share (923,077 shares). Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, the conversion price was adjusted on June 14, 2004 to the greater of (i) the volume weighted average price of the Company’s stock over the six-month period ending on such date and (ii) $5.00. Since the volume weighted average price of the Company’s stock during this period was below $5.00, the conversion price was adjusted to $5.00 (1,200,000 shares). Interest accreted on the notes on a semi-annual basis at a rate of 5% per annum, and the Company could pay such amounts in cash or by effecting the automatic conversion of such amount into the Company’s common stock at a 5% premium to the then average market prices.

On November 30, 2006, the Company paid in cash the $3 million installment due plus accrued interest of $25,417. The remaining $3 million balance plus accrued interest of $25,417 on the note was paid on May 31, 2007 such that no amounts remain outstanding at December 31, 2007.
For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company recorded amortization of the debt issuance costs of $11,345 in each year.
October 2007 Note
On October 26, 2007 the Company issued a note in a principal amount of $3 million. The note is payable on June 30, 2009 and can be prepaid by the Company at any time without penalty. Interest accretes on the note on a quarterly basis at a rate of 8.0% per annum. The note is collateralized by the Company’s facility in East Windsor, New Jersey.
The Company also issued to the noteholder a 5-year detachable warrant to purchase 450,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.52. Of the total warrants issued, 350,000 warrants vest immediately and the remaining 100,000 warrants will vest if the note remains outstanding on October 26, 2008. The Company valued the warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company allocated a relative fair value of $512,550 to the warrants. The relative fair value of the warrants is allocated to additional paid in capital and treated as a discount to the note that is being amortized over the 20-month period ended June 30, 2009.
For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company recorded $51,255 of amortization related to the note discount.
November 2006 Note
On November 30, 2006, the Company issued a note in the principal amount of $2 million. The note was payable on the earlier of December 31, 2007 or the closing by the Company on the sale of the Company’s facility in East Windsor, New Jersey. Interest accreted on the note on a quarterly basis at a rate of 7.5% per annum provided, however, if the Company had not entered into a contract of sale of the East Windsor property on or prior to May 31, 2007, and the note had not be repaid by such date, the interest rate would increase to 8.5%. As such, on May 31, 2007, the interest rate increased to 8.5%.
On February 28, 2007, the Company issued 28,809 shares of its common stock as payment of an aggregate of $25,000 in interest on the note.
On May 1, 2007, the Company issued 30,711 shares of its common stock as payment of an aggregate of $37,500 in interest on the note.
NexMed, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
On August 1, 2007 the Company issued 26,518 shares of its common stock as payment of an aggregate of $40,833 in interest on the note.
The Company also issued the noteholder a 4-year detachable warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.5535. The Company valued the warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company allocated a relative fair value of $138,000 to the warrants. The relative fair value of the warrants was allocated to additional paid in capital and treated as a discount to the note that was being amortized through the October 2007 repayment date.
This note was paid on October 29, 2007 with the proceeds from the issuance of the $3 million note referred to above. The Company paid in cash the $2 million balance on the Note plus accrued interest of $42,028.
For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company recorded $127,385 of amortization related to the note discount.
