Consolidated Financial Statements
Years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010,
and, cumulatively, for the period from
inception (March 2, 2005) to December 31, 2011
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Board of Directors
and Shareholders of
GenturaDx, Inc.
(Formerly Progentech Limited,
A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of GenturaDx, Inc. (formerly Progentech Limited, a development stage company) (the Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of redeemable convertible preferred stock and shareholders' equity (deficit) and of cash flows for the years then ended, and, cumulatively, for the consolidated period from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2011, presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and cash flows. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We did not audit the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the period from inception (March 2, 2005) to December 31, 2005, or for each of the years in the four-year period ended December 31, 2009, presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of shareholders' equity (deficit). In addition, we did not audit the consolidated cumulative totals of the Company for the period from inception (March 2, 2005) to December 31, 2009, which totals reflect a consolidated deficit of approximately $17,190,000 accumulated from inception to December 31, 2009. Those consolidated financial statements were audited by other auditors whose report, dated March 18, 2011, expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and cumulative amounts.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its consolidated operations and cash flows for the years then ended, and, cumulatively, for the consolidated period from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is in the development stage, has incurred recurring operating losses and has an accumulated deficit during the development stage at December 31, 2011 of approximately $51,940,000. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern without raising sufficient additional funding. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that would be necessary to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

GenturaDx, Inc.
(Formerly Progentech Limited, A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010
NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
GenturaDx, Inc. (formerly Progentech Limited, a development stage company) (the Company) was incorporated under the law of the British Virgin Islands on March 2, 2005 as a company with limited liability. The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in developing a next generation comprehensive, cost-effective and easy-to-use diagnostics system to enable clinical benefits of molecular diagnostics to be made available to all physicians and their patients. Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantial effort in business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring operating assets and raising capital. The Company has not recognized revenue since inception. Accordingly, the Company is classified as a development stage company.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as follows:
|
| | |
Name of subsidiaries | Place of incorporation | Date of incorporation |
| | |
GenturaDx (HK) Limited | Hong Kong, China | January 11, 2006 |
GenturaDx-USA, Inc. | California, United States of America | March 13, 2006 |
DxTek, Inc. | Delaware, United States of America | June 19, 2009 |
The Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Hong Kong in 2006, GenturaDx (HK) Limited, which, in turn, holds GenturaDx-USA, Inc. The subsidiary is an integral extension of the parent company's operations. As a result, the functional currency of the subsidiary is considered to be the U.S. dollar. Transaction gains and losses for fiscal years 2011 and 2010 are not significant.
In 2006, the Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Hayward, California (GenturaDx-USA, Inc.), that serves as corporate headquarters and performs research and development, selling and marketing and pre-production manufacturing activities. In addition, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of DxTek, Inc. in January 2010 from a related party (Note 3).
In March 2010, the Company completed the sale of its Chinese subsidiaries, Progentech (Shanghai) Limited and Progentech (Suzhou) Limited, and Progentech Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong company (Note 8).
In June 2010, the Board approved the name of the Company to be changed from Progentech Limited to GenturaDx, Inc.
Going concern - As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations and, as of December 31, 2011, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by approximately $14,310,000 and its total liabilities exceeded its total assets by approximately $21,054,000. The Company has incurred recurring losses and operating cash flow deficits since inception, resulting in an accumulated deficit of approximately $51,940,000 as of December 31, 2011. Additional funds are necessary to continue operations. Furthermore, the Company has projected future working capital requirements in excess of existing cash reserves. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In response to the recurring losses, deficit operating cash flows and projected working capital deficit, the Company is actively seeking additional equity and debt financing, as well as financing from potential strategic partners to fund operations. Also, the Company received additional debt financing from existing investors in March 2012 and June 2012 (Note 11). Through its product and market development efforts, the Company may generate operating cash flows as soon as 2013. However, there can be no assurance that sufficient funding will be available to allow the Company to successfully complete product development, obtain regulatory approvals and achieve widespread market acceptance. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Basis of consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Foreign currency translation - The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the U.S. dollar at the end-of-period exchange rates except for prepaid expenses, property and equipment and related amortization, which are translated at the historical exchange rates. Expenses are translated into the U.S. dollar at the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates, except for certain expenses related to balance sheet amounts, which are translated at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions, which have not been significant, are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
The functional currency of the Company's Chinese subsidiaries which were sold in March 2010 (Note 8) was the local currency, the Chinese Renminbi. Expenses recognized during 2010 were translated to U.S. dollars using average exchange rates in effect during the period. The gains and losses from foreign currency translation of these subsidiaries' financial statements were recorded directly into a separate component of consolidated shareholders' equity (deficit) under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive income.” Upon sale of the entities in 2010, the Company recognized these amounts as income in connection with the loss on sale as the remaining subsidiaries are all U.S. dollar functional. Therefore, the accumulation of translation adjustments recorded since inception relate exclusively to the entities which were sold.
Business combinations - The Company records business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired entities have been included in the consolidated results as of the date of each acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price of its acquisitions to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development (IPR&D) charges, based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values, as applicable, is recorded as goodwill. See Note 3 for further discussion of the Company's acquisition activities.
Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities that are reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. These estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may take in the future. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use, and which have original maturities of three months or less. The recorded carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit-quality financial institutions.
Concentrations of credit risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, substantially all of the Company's financial instruments were held in major financial institutions located in the U.S. and Hong Kong, which management believes are of high credit quality.
Property and equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally 36 to 120 months. Expenditures for repairs and maintenances are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposition, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.
Goodwill and intangible assets - Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to impairment tests annually, or earlier if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company's intangible assets consisted of rights to intellectual property and know-how acquired as a result of the purchase of DxTek, Inc. (DxTek) in January 2010 (Note 3) and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets are amortized on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years and are assessed for impairment.
Stock-based compensation - The Company uses the estimated grant date calculated value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. The Company recognizes these compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term of four years.
Research and development - Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred for Company-sponsored and collaborative research and development activities. These costs include direct and research-related overhead expenses. The Company recognizes research and development costs, including the expenses for research under collaborative agreements, in the consolidated statements of operations as incurred.
Income taxes - Deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and net operating loss (NOL) and tax credit carryforwards. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. The Company classifies any liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits as current to the extent that the Company anticipates payment (or receipt) of cash within one year. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in the provision for income taxes. The Company had no liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2011 and 2010.
New accounting pronouncement - In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. This authoritative guidance permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet adopted the provisions of this guidance but does not expect any significant impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In December 2010, the FASB amended its existing guidance for goodwill and other intangible assets. This authoritative guidance modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if there are qualitative factors indicating that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance which requires goodwill of a reporting unit to be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. This authoritative guidance became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this authoritative guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Subsequent events - The Company has evaluated subsequent events through June 18, 2012, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. (See Note 11)

NOTE 3 - BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
In September 2009, the Company repositioned itself to become a molecular diagnostic company aiming to revolutionize polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology by designing a system that would allow all the steps of the science, from sample preparation and nucleic acid purification to amplification and detection, to be performed in a closed system using an instrument and cassette system.
On January 8, 2010, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common shares of DxTek. DxTek was incorporated in June 2009 by a related party to purchase a license to obtain co-exclusive rights to certain PCR-based intellectual property and know-how. The license agreement also includes a requirement for the entity to pay a running royalty of three percent (3%) of net sales for the five year period immediately following the first commercial sale of a licensed product. Trademark rights were also granted under the license.
The Company issued a convertible note to the former shareholders for $2,000,000 as consideration for the acquisition of DxTek. The note was subsequently exchanged for convertible promissory notes which were issued in June 2010 (Note 5). The Company also reimbursed DxTek for transaction-related costs of approximately $50,000.
In addition to the license, the Company also acquired rights associated with a supply agreement which had been executed by DxTek and the licensor to manufacture products designed using the license. Rights and obligations under the terms of the agreement do not take effect until the Company exits the research and development stage as it relates to such products. The arrangement was not deemed to give rise to an acquired asset or liability as a result of the acquisition. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has not completed its research and development activities associated with the intellectual property and know-how acquired through the acquisition of DxTek.
Because the license was the primary asset acquired, the entire $2,000,000 purchase price was allocated to the license as an intangible asset and is being amortized over its useful life of five years. Deferred tax liabilities arising related to these intangibles were also recorded, resulting in goodwill of approximately $732,000.
NOTE 4 - GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill - The carrying value of goodwill was approximately $732,000 as of and for both of the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. The goodwill resulted from deferred tax liabilities arising from the acquisition of intangibles from DxTek as further described within Note 3. The Company completed its annual evaluation of the goodwill and concluded that there was no impairment.
Intangible assets - The components of intangible assets were as follows as of as of December 31:
|
| | | | | | | |
| 2011 | | 2010 |
Gross carrying amount: | | | |
Purchased technology | $ | 2,555,556 |

Amortization charges for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and, cumulatively, for the period from inception (March 2, 2005) to December 31, 2011, were approximately $400,000, $400,000 and $1,360,000, respectively.
Based upon intangible assets recorded at December 31, 2011, and assuming no subsequent additions to, or impairment of the underlying assets, the remaining weighted average amortization period is two years and annual estimated amortization expense for the next three years is expected as follows:

NOTE 5 - FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
Convertible promissory notes payable - In June and October 2010, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to investors in the amount of $11,075,397. Of this amount, $2,075,397 resulted from conversion of outstanding principle and accrued interest on the note which had been issued in consideration for DxTek in January 2010. The notes bear interest at 8% per annum and mature the earlier of June 15, 2011, the closing of a qualified financing, change in control, event of default or an initial public offering (IPO) as defined within the notes. In April 2011, the notes were amended, changing the maturity date to December 31, 2012.
In conjunction with the issuance of the notes, the Company also issued warrants to purchase shares of Series C redeemable convertible preferred stock (Series C), with the number of shares calculated as 50% of the principal amount of the notes divided by the warrants' exercise price of $0.31, or approximately 17,900,000 shares as of the date of issuance. The Company estimated the warrants to have a fair value of $3,750,423 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: estimated term of approximately seven years, volatility ranging between 71% and 72% and risk-free interest rate of approximately 2%. A beneficial conversion feature also resulted from the issuance of these warrants with a fair value of $3,750,423. The fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature were recorded as debt discounts and are being amortized to interest expense based on the term of the notes. As a result, $2,646,215 and $759,466 was amortized to interest expense during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As the warrants are for redeemable preferred shares, they have been classified as a liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheet and have been remeasured as of each period-end. The Company recognized a gain of $336,601 and $29,759 in the consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, from remeasurement. As of December 31, 2011, a discount of $4,095,165 remains and will be amortized during 2012. The warrants expire in June 2017, and none were exercised as of December 31, 2011.
Between April and December 2011, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to investors in the amount of $13,750,000. The notes bear interest at 12% and mature at the earlier of December 31, 2012, the closing of a qualified financing, a sale, merger or similar transaction, change in control, sale, license or other transfer or IPO as defined within the notes.
In conjunction with the issuance of the notes, the Company also issued warrants to purchase Series C, with the number of shares calculated as 50% of the principal amount of the notes divided by the warrants' exercise price of $0.31, or approximately 22,200,000 shares as of the date of issuance. The Company estimated the warrants to have a fair value of $4,655,150 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: estimated terms ranging between six and seven years, volatility ranging between 72% and 74% and risk-free interest rates ranging between 1% and 3%. A beneficial conversion feature also resulted from the issuance of these warrants with a fair value of $4,655,150. The fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature were recorded as debt discounts and are being amortized to interest expense based on the term of the notes. As a result, $1,785,991 was amortized to interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2011. As the warrants are for redeemable convertible preferred shares, they have been classified as a liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and have been remeasured as of period-end. The Company recognized a gain of $180,578 in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 from remeasurement. As of December 31, 2011, a discount of $7,524,309 remains and will be amortized during 2012. The warrants expire in March 2018, and none were exercised as of December 31, 2011.
Under the terms of the agreements, warrants issued during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are available for exercise at the: (i) per share purchase price paid for a share in a subsequent round of Qualified Financing, as defined in the warrant agreement, (ii) the per share purchase price paid for a share in Other Financing, as defined in the warrant agreement, or (iii) $0.31 per share of Series C, if the shares are elected to be shares of Series C. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has not executed a subsequent round of Qualified Financing or Other Financing, as defined within the notes, and the Company's valuation of warrants and related beneficial conversion features have been determined based upon the terms and conditions relating to exercise for shares of Series C.
Venture notes payable - In December 2010, the Company issued a secured promissory note to a third party in the amount of $2,000,000. The note bears interest at 11.25% per annum and requires monthly payments of interest and principal through April 1, 2014. Approximately $1,800,000 was outstanding under the agreement as of December 31, 2011.
In conjunction with the issuance of the note, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of Series C, with the number of shares calculated as 18% of the principal amount of the note divided by the warrants' exercise price of $0.31, or approximately 1,200,000 shares as of the date of issuance. The Company estimated the warrants to have a fair value of $281,138 using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: estimated term of ten years, volatility of 71% and risk-free interest rate of 3%. The fair value of the warrants was recorded as debt discount and is being amortized to interest expense based on the term of the note. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, $82,014 and zero, respectively, was amortized to interest expense. As the warrants are for redeemable convertible preferred shares, they have been classified as a liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheet and have been remeasured as of each period-end. The Company recognized a gain of $14,689 and zero in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, from remeasurement.

NOTE 6 - SHARE CAPITAL AND CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED SHARES
Share capital - As of December 31, 2011, the authorized capital stock of the Company consisted of 300,000,000 shares of capital stock (par value of $0.001 per share), comprising 175,925,000 shares of common stock and 124,075,000 shares of convertible preferred stock.
On February 5, 2008 the Company effected a five to six stock split for all outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock and common stock. All share and per share amounts in these consolidated financial statements have been restated to take into account the stock split.
Common stock - In March 2005, the Company issued 6,480,000 shares of common stock to its founding shareholders (Founder Stock) and certain officers of the Company in exchange for consideration payable by cash and transfer of intellectual property and the Company's business plan.
On April 6, 2006, the Company repurchased 1,800,000 shares of Founder Stock in exchange for 1,536,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock (Series A) and cancellation of notes receivable due from a shareholder in the amount of $220,000. The common shares were immediately canceled following repurchase. An additional 1,664,000 shares of Series A were issued on February 5, 2008 at par value.
On February 5, 2008, the Company issued 875,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock (Series B) with an original issue price of $0.80 per share.
On March 12, 2008, the Company entered into subscription agreements with two investors to purchase 22,739,130 shares of Series C at an original issue price of $0.92 per share, for total proceeds of $20,139,425, net of issuance costs.
Also on March 12, 2008, the Company repurchased 1,000,000 shares of Founder Stock in exchange for 1,000,000 shares of Series B which were subsequently repurchased at the same price. The common and preferred shares were immediately canceled following each purchase.
At December 31, 2011, convertible preferred stock consisted of the following:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |

|
The significant features of the Company's convertible preferred stock are as follows:
Dividend provisions - The holders of Series C are entitled to receive, when and if declared by the Board of Directors, cumulative dividends at a rate of $0.92 per share, respectively, per annum, adjustable for certain events, such as stock splits and combinations. Such cumulative dividends accrue from the date of issuance to the date paid, once declared. The Company has declared no dividends to date.
Dividends cannot be declared or paid on any junior shares for any previous or current fiscal year of the Company until all accrued dividends accumulated relating to Series C have been paid or declared and set aside in a given fiscal year.
Liquidation - In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, including: (i) the merger or consolidation of the Company with another company and change of control, (ii) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets and (iii) the exclusive licensing of all or substantially all of intellectual property to a third party, the assets of the Company shall be distributed in the following order of preference: (i) Series C (ii) Series A and Series B and (iii) common shares.
If the assets and funds available for distribution are insufficient to pay all holders of shares of equal preference, then the entire assets available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of those shares.
The liquidation amount of each holder of preferred shares equals to the sum of: (i) 100% of the original issue price (as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar transactions), plus (ii) interest calculated at a compound interest rate of 10% per annum plus (iii) all dividends declared and unpaid.
Any remaining assets shall be distributed ratably among the holders of common shares and preferred shares, on an as-if converted basis.
Conversion - Each outstanding share of Series A, Series B and Series C is convertible into one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. Each share of convertible preferred stock shall automatically be converted into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering in which the aggregate offering price equals or exceeds $30,000,000 or exceeds a price three times the Series C original issue price as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar transactions. Conversion may also occur upon written consent of a majority of the then outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock.
Redemption - To the extent that a qualified IPO has not been consummated by March 12, 2013, the Company shall, upon receiving at any time after this date, a written request for the redemption of the Series C, signed by a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series C, redeem all or a portion of the shares that are outstanding on the date the Company receives such written redemption request. The redemption price for such requests shall be an amount equal to the sum of: (i) 100% of the Series C original issue price (as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar transactions), plus (ii) all dividends declared and unpaid with respect such share (as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar transactions), plus (iii) the interest calculated at a compound interest rate of 10% per annum since the issuance date of Series C issuance date.
As of December 31, 2011, the Company has not accreted the value of the Series C towards its redemption value as management believes that it is not probable that such shares will be redeemed.
Voting rights - Each holder of convertible preferred shares is entitled to vote on an as-if converted basis, together with holders of common shares and not as a separate class. Without the prior written approval from Series C shareholders, the Company cannot execute certain material transactions such as change of control or merger.
NOTE 7 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards granted after January 1, 2006, and for previous awards modified, repurchased or canceled after January 1, 2006, is based on the grant-date calculated value. The Company recognizes these compensation costs, net of an estimated forfeiture rate, and recognizes the compensation costs for only those shares expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term of four years. The Company estimated the forfeiture rate for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 based on its historical experience for annual grant years where the majority of the vesting terms have been satisfied.
For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and, cumulatively, for the period from inception (March 2, 2005) and December 31, 2011, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of approximately $13,100, $13,400 and $1,133,000, respectively.
2007 Share Incentive Plan - The Company's 2007 Share Incentive Plan (the Option Plan) was adopted pursuant to a resolution approved by the Board of Directors in 2007 for the purpose of providing incentives and rewards to its directors, employees and consultants. The Option Plan provides for the issuance up to 11,306,739 common shares. The options generally vest over four years, or sooner as determined by the discretion of the Board of Directors, with 25% to vest upon the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date and the remaining to vest in successive equal monthly installments upon completion of the next 36 months of services. Generally, options can be exercised between seven and ten years from the date of grant.
Stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2011 is as follows:
|
| | | | | | | | |
| Shares | | Weighted average exercise price per share | | Weighted average remaining contractual life (in years) |
| | | | | |

| | $ | 0.10 |
| | 6.6 |
| |
(1) | The expected to vest options are the result of applying the pre-vesting forfeiture rate assumptions to total outstanding options. |
The total pretax intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was zero and $35,107, respectively. The intrinsic value is the difference between the estimated fair value of the Company's common stock at the date of exercise and the exercise price for in-the-money options. No stock options were granted during the years ended December 31, 2011 or 2010.
As of December 31, 2011, there was $12,375 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards granted under the Option Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.65 years. Total unrecognized compensation cost may be adjusted for future changes in estimated forfeitures.
Cash received from option exercises and purchases of shares under the Option Plan for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $1,077 and $807, respectively.
NOTE 8 - LOSS ON SALE OF ASSETS
In December 2009, the Board of Directors and management, having the authority to approve the action, committed to a plan of sale associated with its Chinese subsidiaries, Progentech (Shanghai) Limited, Progentech (Suzhou) Limited, and Progentech Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong company, in response to a strategic decision to reposition the entity to become a molecular diagnostic company. The subsidiaries had historically performed primarily research and development functions which would not be necessary under the Company's new strategy.
All of the criteria under the related authoritative guidance were met as of December 31, 2009 to classify the disposal group as held for sale. Based upon this designation, an impairment assessment was performed which resulted in the recognition of impairment charges of approximately $285,000 and $482,000 associated with property and equipment and intangible assets, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2009.
In March 2010, the Company completed the sale of the subsidiaries to an unrelated third party. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company transferred all of the assets and liabilities of the three subsidiaries, excluding certain physical assets and intellectual property which were retained. Cash and cash equivalents totaling approximately $710,000 was also transferred to the buyer under the terms of the agreement. The transaction constituted a share purchase agreement whereby 100% of the outstanding capital shares owned by the Company were transferred to the buyer at closing.
As result of the transaction, the Company recognized a loss on the sale of $576,197 in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010.

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES
The components of the provision for income taxes are as follows for the years ended December 31:
|
| | | | | | | |
| 2011 | | 2010 |
Current income tax expense: | | | |
Federal | $ | — |

| | | |
Total benefit from income taxes | $ | (143,796 | ) | | $ | (143,538 | ) |
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Total deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows at December 31:
|
| | | | | | | |
| 2011 | | 2010 |
Deferred tax assets: | | | |
Net operating loss carryforwards | $ | 11,747,000 |

| | | |
Total net deferred tax liabilities | $ | (441,000 | ) | | $ | (587,000 | ) |
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The company has established a valuation allowance to offset net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2011 due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from its NOL carryforwards and other deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2011, the Company has federal and state NOL carryforwards of $31,765,458 and $15,956,548, respectively, expiring beginning in 2026 for federal and 2016 for state. At December 31, 2011, the Company has federal and state research credit carryforwards of $251,297 and $264,912, respectively, expiring beginning in 2031 for federal and indefinitely for state.
Internal Revenue Code section 382 places a limitation (Section 382 Limitation) on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by NOL carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than 50% change in ownership) of a loss corporation. California has similar rules. The Company's capitalization described herein may have resulted in such a change. Generally, after a control change, a loss corporation cannot deduct NOL carryforwards in excess of the Section 382 Limitation.
The Company adopted the Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Uncertainty in Income Taxes, as of January 1, 2010. For benefits to be realized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. As a result of the implementation of these provisions, the Company did not recognize any adjustments to retained earnings for uncertain tax positions.
It is the Company's policy to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had no accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company files U.S. and state income tax returns with varying statutes of limitations. The tax years from 2006 to 2011 remain open to examination due to the carryover of unused NOL and tax credits.
The Company does not expect any material changes to the estimated amount of liability associated with its uncertain tax positions within the next 12 months.
NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating lease commitments - The Company leases certain office premises and buildings under non-cancellable leases. Rental expense under operating leases for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and, cumulatively, for the period from inception (March 2, 2005) and December 31, 2011, was $397,392, $461,856 and $1,526,319, respectively.
As of December 31, 2011, the Company had remaining outstanding commitments in respect of its operating leases as follows:
|
| | | |
Years ending December 31, | |
2012 | $ | 543,309 |
|
2013 | 525,955 |

2014 | 533,714 |
|
2015 | 363,317 |
|
| |
| $ | 1,966,295 |
|
Change in control bonus plan - In January 2011, the Board of Directors approved bonus plans to provide employees with an incentive and financial security to continue their service through a potential corporate transaction. The agreements provide for a percentage of the total consideration being paid by an acquirer, in the event of a change in control, in excess of certain thresholds as described within the agreements, to be paid to employees as a bonus. Employees will be fully vested in the percentage allocated to them upon the closing provided that services continued through the closing. As of December 31, 2011, the Company is unable to determine the likelihood or amount of payout which may result under the terms of the agreements and has not recorded an accrual as of the balance sheet date.
Employee retention plan - Also in January 2011, the Board of Directors approved a retention bonus plan to provide employees with an incentive and financial security to continue their service through the occurrence of certain potential cash inflows (e.g. payment received due to licensing and/or collaboration), as further described in the agreement. The agreement provides for bonus payments equal to an employee's maximum retention bonus multiplied by a percentage derived, in part, based upon the size of such payment received by the Company. As of December 31, 2011, the Company is unable to determine the likelihood or amount of any payout which may result under the terms of the agreement and has not recorded an accrual as of the balance sheet date.
Other contractual obligation - As of December 31, 2011, the Company was committed to purchase molds in the amount of $25,200 from third-party suppliers.
The Company may be involved in lawsuits, claims, investigation and proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company will record a provision for a liability when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company will review any provisions at least annually and adjusts these provisions to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.

GenturaDx, Inc.
(Formerly Progentech Limited, A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2012
NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
GenturaDx, Inc. (formerly Progentech Limited, a development stage company) (the Company) was incorporated under the law of the British Virgin Islands on March 2, 2005 as a company with limited liability. The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in developing a next generation comprehensive, cost-effective and easy-to-use diagnostics system to enable clinical benefits of molecular diagnostics to be made available to all physicians and their patients. Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantial effort in business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring operating assets and raising capital. The Company has not recognized revenue since inception. Accordingly, the Company is classified as a development stage company.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as follows:
|
| | |
Name of subsidiaries | Place of incorporation | Date of incorporation |
| | |
GenturaDx (HK) Limited | Hong Kong, China | January 11, 2006 |
GenturaDx-USA, Inc. | California, United States of America | March 13, 2006 |
DxTek, Inc. | Delaware, United States of America | June 19, 2009 |
The Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Hong Kong in 2006, GenturaDx (HK) Limited, which, in turn, holds GenturaDx-USA, Inc. The subsidiary is an integral extension of the parent company's operations. As a result, the functional currency of the subsidiary is considered to be the U.S. dollar. Transaction gains and losses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 are not significant.
In 2006, the Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Hayward, California (GenturaDx-USA, Inc.), that serves as corporate headquarters and performs research and development, selling and marketing and pre-production manufacturing activities. In addition, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of DxTek, Inc. in January 2010 from a related party.
In March 2010, the Company completed the sale of its Chinese subsidiaries, Progentech (Shanghai) Limited and Progentech (Suzhou) Limited, and Progentech Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong company.
In June 2010, the Board approved the name of the Company to be changed from Progentech Limited to GenturaDx, Inc.
On July 11, 2012, the Company was acquired by Luminex Corporation. (See subsequent events)
Basis of consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Foreign currency translation - The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the U.S. dollar at the end-of-period exchange rates except for prepaid expenses, property and equipment and related amortization, which are translated at the historical exchange rates. Expenses are translated into the U.S. dollar at the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates, except for certain expenses related to balance sheet amounts, which are translated at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions, which have not been significant, are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
Business combinations - The Company records business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired entities have been included in the consolidated results as of the date of each acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price of its acquisitions to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development (IPR&D) charges, based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values, as applicable, is recorded as goodwill.
Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities that are reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. These estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may take in the future. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use, and which have original maturities of three months or less. The recorded carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit-quality financial institutions.
Concentrations of credit risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2012, substantially all of the Company's financial instruments were held in major financial institutions located in the U.S., which management believes are of high credit quality.
Property and equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally 36 to 120 months. Expenditures for repairs and maintenances are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposition, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.
Goodwill and intangible assets - Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to impairment tests annually, or earlier if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. As of June 30, 2012, the Company's intangible assets consisted of rights to intellectual property and know-how acquired as a result of the purchase of DxTek, Inc. (DxTek) in January 2010 and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets are amortized on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years and are assessed for impairment.
Stock-based compensation - The Company uses the estimated grant date calculated value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. The Company recognizes these compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term of four years.
Research and development - Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred for Company-sponsored and collaborative research and development activities. These costs include direct and research-related overhead expenses. The Company recognizes research and development costs, including the expenses for research under collaborative agreements, in the consolidated statements of operations as incurred.
Income taxes - Deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and net operating loss (NOL) and tax credit carryforwards. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. The Company classifies any liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits as current to the extent that the Company anticipates payment (or receipt) of cash within one year. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in the provision for income taxes. The Company had no liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2012.
New accounting pronouncement - In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. This authoritative guidance permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet adopted the provisions of this guidance but does not expect any significant impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In December 2010, the FASB amended its existing guidance for goodwill and other intangible assets. This authoritative guidance modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if there are qualitative factors indicating that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance which requires goodwill of a reporting unit to be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. This authoritative guidance became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this authoritative guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Subsequent events - The Company has evaluated subsequent events through September 18, 2012, which is the date the June 30, 2012 condensed consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. (See Note 9)

NOTE 4 - FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
Convertible promissory notes payable - In June and October 2010, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to investors in the amount of $11,075,397. Of this amount, $2,075,397 resulted from conversion of outstanding principle and accrued interest on the note which had been issued in consideration for DxTek in January 2010. The notes bear interest at 8% per annum and mature the earlier of June 15, 2011, the closing of a qualified financing, change in control, event of default or an initial public offering (IPO) as defined within the notes. In April 2011, the notes were amended, changing the maturity date to December 31, 2012.
In conjunction with the issuance of the notes, the Company also issued warrants to purchase shares of Series C redeemable convertible preferred stock (Series C), with the number of shares calculated as 50% of the principal amount of the notes divided by the warrants' exercise price of $0.31, or approximately 17,900,000 shares as of the date of issuance. The Company estimated the warrants to have a fair value of $3,750,423 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: estimated term of approximately seven years, volatility ranging between 71% and 72% and risk-free interest rate of approximately 2%. A beneficial conversion feature also resulted from the issuance of these warrants with a fair value of $3,750,423. The fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature were recorded as debt discounts and are being amortized to interest expense based on the term of the notes. As a result, $1,879,295 was amortized to interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2012. As the warrants are for redeemable preferred shares, they have been classified as a liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheet and have been remeasured as of each period-end. The Company recognized a gain of $43,235 in the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012, from remeasurement. As of June 30, 2012, a discount of $2,215,870 remains and will be amortized during 2012. The warrants expire in June 2017, and none were exercised as of June 30, 2012.
Between April and December 2011, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to investors in the amount of $13,750,000. The notes bear interest at 12% and mature at the earlier of December 31, 2012, the closing of a qualified financing, a sale, merger or similar transaction, change in control, sale, license or other transfer or IPO as defined within the notes.
In conjunction with the issuance of the notes, the Company also issued warrants to purchase Series C, with the number of shares calculated as 50% of the principal amount of the notes divided by the warrants' exercise price of $0.31, or approximately 22,200,000 shares as of the date of issuance. The Company estimated the warrants to have a fair value of $4,655,150 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: estimated terms ranging between six and seven years, volatility ranging between 72% and 74% and risk-free interest rates ranging between 1% and 3%. A beneficial conversion feature also resulted from the issuance of these warrants with a fair value of $4,655,150. The fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature were recorded as debt discounts and are being amortized to interest expense based on the term of the notes. As a result, $3,061,991 was amortized to interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. As the warrants are for redeemable convertible preferred shares, they have been classified as a liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and have been remeasured as of period-end. The Company recognized a gain of $89,539 in the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012, from remeasurement. As of June 30, 2012, a discount of $4,462,319 remains. The warrants expire in March 2018, and none were exercised as of June 30, 2012.
Between March and June 2012, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to investors in the amount of $5,750,000. The notes bear interest at 12% and mature at the earlier of December 31, 2012, the closing of a qualified financing, a sale, merger or similar transaction, change in control, sale, license or other transfer or IPO as defined within the notes.
In conjunction with the issuance of the notes, the Company also issued warrants to purchase Series C, with the number of shares calculated as 50% of the principal amount of the notes divided by the warrants' exercise price of $0.31, or approximately 9,274,000 shares as of the date of issuance. The Company estimated the warrants to have a fair value of $1,828,062 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: estimated terms of six years, volatility ranging between 72% and 74% and risk-free interest rates ranging around 1%. A beneficial conversion feature also resulted from the issuance of these warrants with a fair value of $1,828,062. The fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature were recorded as debt discounts and are being amortized to interest expense based on the term of the notes. As a result, $148,300 was amortized to interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2012. As the warrants are for redeemable convertible preferred shares, they have been classified as a liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and have been remeasured as of period-end. The Company recognized a loss of $3,343 in the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from remeasurement. As of June 30, 2012, a discount of $3,507,825 remains. The warrants expire in March 2018, and none were exercised as of June 30, 2012.
Under the terms of the agreements, warrants issued during the six months ended June 30, 2012, and the year ended December 31, 2011 are available for exercise at the: (i) per share purchase price paid for a share in a subsequent round of Qualified Financing, as defined in the warrant agreement, (ii) the per share purchase price paid for a share in Other Financing, as defined in the warrant agreement, or (iii) $0.31 per share of Series C, if the shares are elected to be shares of Series C. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has not executed a subsequent round of Qualified Financing or Other Financing, as defined within the notes, and the Company's valuation of warrants and related beneficial conversion features have been determined based upon the terms and conditions relating to exercise for shares of Series C.
Venture notes payable - In December 2010, the Company issued a secured promissory note to a third party in the amount of $2,000,000. The note bears interest at 11.25% per annum and requires monthly payments of interest and principal through April 1, 2014. Approximately $1,500,000 was outstanding under the agreement as of June 30, 2012.
In conjunction with the issuance of the note, the Company issued warrants to purchase shares of Series C, with the number of shares calculated as 18% of the principal amount of the note divided by the warrants' exercise price of $0.31, or approximately 1,200,000 shares as of the date of issuance. The Company estimated the warrants to have a fair value of $281,138 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: estimated term of ten years, volatility of 71% and risk-free interest rate of 3%. The fair value of the warrants was recorded as debt discount and is being amortized to interest expense based on the term of the note. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, $42,463 was amortized to interest expense. As the warrants are for redeemable convertible preferred shares, they have been classified as a liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheet and have been remeasured as of each period-end. The Company recognized a gain of $6,424 in the consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012, from remeasurement. As of June 30, 2012, a discount of $156,661 remains and will be amortized during 2012. The warrants expire in December 2020, and none were exercised as of June 30, 2012.
Under the terms of the agreement, warrants issued relating to the note are available for exercise at: (i) 70% of the price per share of the redeemable convertible preferred shares of the Company sold in a Qualified Financing, (ii) the lowest effective price per share of redeemable convertible preferred shares of the Company sold in Other Financing or (iii) $0.31 per share of Series C, if the shares are elected to be shares of Series C. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has not executed a subsequent round of Qualified Financing or Other Financing, as defined within the note, and the Company's valuation of warrants and related beneficial conversion feature have been determined based upon the terms and conditions relating to exercise for shares of Series C.

NOTE 5 - SHARE CAPITAL AND CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED SHARES
Share capital - As of June 30, 2012, the authorized capital stock of the Company consisted of 300,000,000 shares of capital stock (par value of $0.001 per share), comprising 175,925,000 shares of common stock and 124,075,000 shares of convertible preferred stock.
On February 5, 2008 the Company effected a five to six stock split for all outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock and common stock. All share and per share amounts in these consolidated financial statements have been restated to take into account the stock split.
Common stock - In March 2005, the Company issued 6,480,000 shares of common stock to its founding shareholders (Founder Stock) and certain officers of the Company in exchange for consideration payable by cash and transfer of intellectual property and the Company's business plan.
On April 6, 2006, the Company repurchased 1,800,000 shares of Founder Stock in exchange for 1,536,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock (Series A) and cancellation of notes receivable due from a shareholder in the amount of $220,000. The common shares were immediately canceled following repurchase. An additional 1,664,000 shares of Series A were issued on February 5, 2008 at par value.
On February 5, 2008, the Company issued 875,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock (Series B) with an original issue price of $0.80 per share.
On March 12, 2008, the Company entered into subscription agreements with two investors to purchase 22,739,130 shares of Series C at an original issue price of $0.92 per share, for total proceeds of $20,139,425, net of issuance costs.
Also on March 12, 2008, the Company repurchased 1,000,000 shares of Founder Stock in exchange for 1,000,000 shares of Series B which were subsequently repurchased at the same price. The common and preferred shares were immediately canceled following each purchase.
At June 30, 2012, convertible preferred stock consisted of the following:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The significant features of the Company's convertible preferred stock are as follows:
Dividend provisions - The holders of Series C are entitled to receive, when and if declared by the Board of Directors, cumulative dividends at a rate of $0.92 per share, respectively, per annum, adjustable for certain events, such as stock splits and combinations. Such cumulative dividends accrue from the date of issuance to the date paid, once declared. The Company has declared no dividends to date.
Dividends cannot be declared or paid on any junior shares for any previous or current fiscal year of the Company until all accrued dividends accumulated relating to Series C have been paid or declared and set aside in a given fiscal year.
Liquidation - In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, including: (i) the merger or consolidation of the Company with another company and change of control, (ii) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets and (iii) the exclusive licensing of all or substantially all of intellectual property to a third party, the assets of the Company shall be distributed in the following order of preference: (i) Series C (ii) Series A and Series B and (iii) common shares.
If the assets and funds available for distribution are insufficient to pay all holders of shares of equal preference, then the entire assets available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of those shares.
The liquidation amount of each holder of preferred shares equals to the sum of: (i) 100% of the original issue price (as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar transactions), plus (ii) interest calculated at a compound interest rate of 10% per annum plus (iii) all dividends declared and unpaid.
Any remaining assets shall be distributed ratably among the holders of common shares and preferred shares, on an as-if converted basis.
Conversion - Each outstanding share of Series A, Series B and Series C is convertible into one fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. Each share of convertible preferred stock shall automatically be converted into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering in which the aggregate offering price equals or exceeds $30,000,000 or exceeds a price three times the Series C original issue price as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar transactions. Conversion may also occur upon written consent of a majority of the then outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock.
Redemption - To the extent that a qualified IPO has not been consummated by March 12, 2013, the Company shall, upon receiving at any time after this date, a written request for the redemption of the Series C, signed by a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series C, redeem all or a portion of the shares that are outstanding on the date the Company receives such written redemption request. The redemption price for such requests shall be an amount equal to the sum of: (i) 100% of the Series C original issue price (as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar
transactions), plus (ii) all dividends declared and unpaid with respect such share (as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar transactions), plus (iii) the interest calculated at a compound interest rate of 10% per annum since the issuance date of Series C issuance date.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company has not accreted the value of the Series C towards its redemption value as management believes that it is not probable that such shares will be redeemed.
Voting rights - Each holder of convertible preferred shares is entitled to vote on an as-if converted basis, together with holders of common shares and not as a separate class. Without the prior written approval from Series C shareholders, the Company cannot execute certain material transactions such as change of control or merger.
NOTE 6 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards granted after January 1, 2006, and for previous awards modified, repurchased or canceled after January 1, 2006, is based on the grant-date calculated value. The Company recognizes these compensation costs, net of an estimated forfeiture rate, and recognizes the compensation costs for only those shares expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term of four years. The Company estimated the forfeiture rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 based on its historical experience for annual grant years where the majority of the vesting terms have been satisfied.
For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and the period from inception (March 2, 2005) to June 30, 2012, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of approximately $3,250 and $1,139,250, respectively.
2007 Share Incentive Plan - The Company's 2007 Share Incentive Plan (the Option Plan) was adopted pursuant to a resolution approved by the Board of Directors in 2007 for the purpose of providing incentives and rewards to its directors, employees and consultants. The Option Plan provides for the issuance up to 11,306,739 common shares. The options generally vest over four years, or sooner as determined by the discretion of the Board of Directors, with 25% to vest upon the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date and the remaining to vest in successive equal monthly installments upon completion of the next 36 months of services. Generally, options can be exercised between seven and ten years from the date of grant.
Stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is as follows:
|
| | | | | | | |
| Shares | | Weighted average exercise price per share | Weighted average remaining contractual life (in years) |
| | | | |

(1) | The expected to vest options are the result of applying the pre-vesting forfeiture rate assumptions to total outstanding options. |
The total pretax intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was zero. The intrinsic value is the difference between the estimated fair value of the Company's common stock at the date of exercise and the exercise price for in-the-money options. Stock options of 1,449,628 were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The expected volatility and expected term of options granted are based on an average historical volatility and expected term of a group of the Company's peers because no historical experience is available for the Company. There is a 0% expected dividend yield as there are currently no future plans to pay any dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on the zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond, with a term equal to the expected term of the options.

Expected volatility | 74% |

Expected term (in years) | 5.8 |
Risk-free interest rate | 0.83% |
Weighted average fair value per share at grant date | $0.01 |
As of June 30, 2012, there was $19,176 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards granted under the Option Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.29 years. Total unrecognized compensation cost may be adjusted for future changes in estimated forfeitures.
There was no cash received from option exercises and purchases of shares under the Option Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
At the end of each interim reporting period, an estimate is made of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year. The estimated full year's effective tax rate is used to determine the income tax rate for each applicable interim reporting period. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period of the enactment date. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was 0.4%. The Company's tax expense was less than the Federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the utilization of a portion of the Company's U.S. deferred tax assets which had been subjected to a valuation allowance.
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The company has established a valuation allowance to offset net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2012 due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from its NOL carryforwards and other deferred tax assets. At June 30, 2012, the Company has federal NOL carryforwards of $40,929,270 expiring beginning in 2026. At June 30, 2012 the Company has state NOL carryforwards of $20,821,084 expiring beginning in 2016. At June 30, 2012, the Company has federal research credit carryforwards of $924,624, expiring beginning in 2031. At June 30, 2012, the Company has state research credit carryforwards of $936,703 expiring indefinitely.
Internal Revenue Code section 382 places a limitation (Section 382 Limitation) on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by NOL carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than 50% change in ownership) of a loss corporation. California has similar rules. The Company's capitalization described herein may have resulted in such a change. Generally, after a control change, a loss corporation cannot deduct NOL carryforwards in excess of the Section 382 Limitation.
It is the Company's policy to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had no accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company files U.S. and state income tax returns with varying statutes of limitations. The tax years from 2006 to 2011 remain open to examination due to the carryover of unused NOL and tax credits. The Company does not expect any material changes to the estimated amount of liability associated with its uncertain tax positions within the next 12 months.
NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating lease commitments - The Company leases certain office premises and buildings under non-cancellable leases. Rental expense under operating leases for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and for the period from inception (March 2, 2005) to June 30, 2012, was $214,934 and $1,741,253, respectively.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company had remaining outstanding commitments in respect of its operating leases as follows:
|
| | | | |
Years ending December 31, | | |
2012 (remaining 6 months) | | $ | 328,375 |
|
2013 | | 525,955 |
|
2014 | | 533,714 |
|
2015 | | 363,317 |
|
| | |
| | $ | 1,751,361 |
|
Change in control bonus plan - In January 2011, the Board of Directors approved bonus plans to provide employees with an incentive and financial security to continue their service through a potential corporate transaction. The agreements provide for a percentage of the total consideration being paid by an acquirer, in the event of a change in control, in excess of certain thresholds as described within the agreements, to be paid to employees as a bonus. Employees will be fully vested in the percentage allocated them upon the closing provided that services continued through the closing. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has not recorded an accrual as of the balance sheet date as the bonus, if any, would be contingent on the sale of the Company and the terms of the sale agreement. Subsequent to the sale to Luminex, a sale bonus of $2,000,000 plus employment taxes was paid to employees out of the purchase price.
Employee retention plan - Also in January 2011, the Board of Directors approved a retention bonus plan to provide employees with an incentive and financial security to continue their service through the occurrence of certain potential cash inflows (e.g. payment received due to licensing and/or collaboration), as further described in the agreement. The agreement provides for bonus payments equal to an employee's maximum retention bonus multiplied by a percentage derived, in part, based upon the size of such payment received by the Company. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has not recorded an accrual as the bonus, if any, would be contingent on the terms of the Company's sale price and would be paid directly by the buyer.
Other contractual obligation - The Company may be involved in lawsuits, claims, investigation and proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company will record a provision for a liability when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company will review any provisions at least annually and adjusts these provisions to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.
NOTE 9 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 11, 2012, the Company was acquired by Luminex Corporation (Luminex) pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 9, 2012, by and among Luminex, Grouper Merger Sub, Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Luminex (Merger Sub), GenturaDx, and a representative of the stockholders and lenders of GenturaDx (the Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into GenturaDx and GenturaDx continued as the surviving corporation as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Luminex.
